Tokyopop, summer 2007

Since it won the poll I'm posting the whole thing. The context: Robespierre visits David on the 8 Thermidor evening, together they stare at David's unfinished Tennis Court Oath. Robespierre asks "why did you draw me like this (clutching my chest in patriotic transport)?", "You are the only one who understood the meaning of the Revolution" replies David. As he leaves Robespierre says "Next time, draw me like the others."

David was left alone. He lifted a veil that was covering a drawing in dark ink. It was representing the same people, but naked. Robespierre was depicted with bulging pectoral, his muscles taut. His straight penis was rising up between his strong thighs. How would Robespierre have reacted, had he seen himself drawn like this?

This is no great translation, but I tried doing justice to the way the original is worded as if David gave him a patriotic hard-on. Which he very much didn't. Robespierre has the same generic dick as everyone else in the naked draft, but I can't believe the author made me go and check.

So I may have gone down a rabbit hole a while back and figured out some fun facts behind the meanings and origins of each card suit and the Heartslabyul boys fit somewhat well into them??

Like Hearts = emotion (Ace is the only one who’s dated, and may or may not be smitten for Yuu’

Spades = weapons + soldiers (Deuce’s delinquent era where he got into fights + his diligence now)

Clubs = the common folk (Trey has a whole vignette talking about how he’s the most normal person at NRC + a normal-ish life compared to the others)

Diamonds = superficial wealth (Cater is very superficial outwardly and hardly lets anything break his ice)

A couple of those might be off but I still think it’s super interesting!

"Gone down a rabbit hole"? I see what you did there--

There's actually lore from the Magical Archives which states that the dorm leader determines which card suit each student is! This led me to speculate how the dorm leader determines which suit to bestow and if the suits themselves have any additional meaning. (If you're interested in reading more, you can find that post here!) I didn't realize that the suits also had some kind of common meaning irl too?? Something I mentioned in that other post is that I think of Alice in Borderland, which categorizes games of life or death by suits, with hearts being games of trust, spades being games of physical ability, clubs being games of cooperation, and diamonds being games of intelligence. Those, too, also kind of fit in with the ideas you brought up.

Deuce definitely fits the bill due to his physical strength and penchant for throwing hands when his old habits get the better of him. Trey's the "normal guy" of the group (which he emphasizes on multiple occasions, especially around Rook; ie Endless Halloween Night, Happy Beans Day, etc.) and is usually the peacemaker responsible for calming Riddle down (ie he wants everyone to "get along"). Then we have Cater, who comes from a reasonably well-off family (his dad is a banker), and seemingly acts very shallow and superficial (particularly when it comes to Magicam). However, he's also shown to be socially savvy and knows how to use others' perception of him to his advantage to get them to do what they want; Cater's very intelligent in that sense!

The only one I would somewhat debate with you on is Ace?? It's not that I disagree about him being emotional, it's moreso the reason presented for it. Yes, he's the only one who has dated before but compared to the reasoning given for the other Heartslabyul boys, that's such a small part of his character to warrant it defining his heart suit. Whether or not Ace has a crush on Yuu is left to personal interpretation; I'd rather not make assumptions about the nature of his feelings, as not all players will align with it (thereby making the evidence shaky). Rather, I feel like the source of Ace's "heart" and emotion comes down to his earnestness.

Ace isn't afraid to tell it like it is! That's a key component of his personality--time and time again, he calls people out because he feels passionately about his own stance. Ace slaps some sense into a ghost bride's deluded ideas about romance and the ideal prince, calls his own dorm leader a tyrant, and even tells Malleus (one of the top 5 strongest mages in the WORLD) off for the dumb, dangerous prank he pulled on Halloween night. Of course, this bluntness also lands Ace in trouble with those he offends (which can sometime also include his own friends; recall that Ace often insults Deuce and Yuu, sometimes more playfully and sometimes slightly meaner), but the fact remains that this is an essential part of who he is. While I wouldn't say Ace is as emotional of a person as like... Kalim, he's still emotional in his own way. Ace is just a person who speaks his opinion even when no one asked for it or wanted it! You may even say he speaks from the "heart" (albeit in an unconventional way)!

Anyway...!! Riddle's so lucky to have such troublesome reliable card soldiers by his side! They're such besties 🥰

In your opinion who's the best saint? Use whatever criteria you desire

This is such a fucking hard questionnnnn i also dont know as much about saints as you might think as my view is. Very detailed for some but very narrow in focus most of what I know abt them is from a class i took on medieval holy women. But. out of the ones from there who were actually officially venerated i think i have to choose catherine of siena she's just so crazy influential like genuinely one of the most influential women in medieval history she would preach sermons she was made a doctor of the church she was very active in the public sphere and even was instrumental in moving the papacy back to rome... and she also just has everything you could want in a saints life.. like shes got the stigmata shes got the self abnegation shes got fasting she says shes married to god shes depicted with the crown of thorns i think shes also the official patron saint of rome? she's pretty awesome. big fan.

Okay with Eda and Alador I hc that whatever separated Darius and Alador separated those two as well - they clearly knew each other at least.

The Willow thing was just a baby crush when she was younger.

I FORGOT TO ADD HUNTER AND LUZ AS SIBLINGS PLEASE FORGIVE ME-

Saint-Just was often quiet. Which made his words even more dangerous. Without answering Barère's welcome or greeting his colleagues, he grabbed a chair and straddled it, fixing his gaze on each members of the Committee. One suddenly became ugly next to him. It was a feeling Collot couldn't stand.

Dressed in a frock coat perfectly fitted, highlighting the elegance of his waist, his long legs delicately hugged by his grey culottes, Saint-Just looked at he had just come out of a fashion plate. Overwhelmed, Collot dropped his gaze. Nor the sun or Saint-Just could be looked at intently.

I find Collot's jealousy and the sun comparison very amusing 🤭☀️, but Saint-Just not saluting his colleagues ? Nah, I don't see it.

it’s okay 🥲 no it’s not

THE CGI ANIMALS FOR THE LITTLE MERMAID LIVE ACTION MAY BE NIGHTMARE FUEL BUT AT LEAST THE EELS the most important ones/j LOOK COOL 😭

(Flounder and Sebastian look especially 😬 LIKE WhY IS FLOUnDE r SO GREY AnD DEAD LOOKING… WhT Y DOES SEBqs5-TIAN lOOK LIKE THAt fUVking CRAB DAnCE GIF…

They look like reaction memes if you crop them too, and not the cute kind 😭 I’m sure if real fish and crabs could talk, they too would be offended by this:

xbkdhkwgsje and I guess Scuttle doesn’t look TOO terrible, but live action Scuttle isn’t as fluffy as the animated one… so the impression I get of live action scuttle is maybe he hasn’t been eating a lot????

The eels though 😩 cool as still images, not sure how good they’ll look actually moving… Fingers crossed 🤞

[diamondnokouzai]

like in the cherik x men divorce au:

erik gets kitty, jean, toad, bobby, & legion

charles gets cyclops, nightcrawler, wanda, & angel

mystique is on erik's side, but she's her own player in the game

charles' team is smaller because he kept the adults (storm, hank, etc.)

the team makeups are like that because:

erik:

i always thought he and kitty should interact more. i like the idea of them connecting over being jewish mutants specifically, and i really like the idea of erik being her surrogate father being part of the reason that wanda & pietro didnt side with daddy dearest

jean is so boring when shes with charles im sorry. in this au she leans more into the phoenix persona and is actively trying to figure out how to brainwash erik while hes in that stupid helmet.

toad: toad.

bobby: taking the moviesverse shithead little brother idea and running with it. bobby deserves to be radicalized for being hated.

legion: charles got erik's kids, erik gets charles' kids. i just think david would react poorly to how he was like, a special genetic engineering project of his dad's. also i think he likes the safety of erik's dumbass helmet. legion can't hurt someone if they're protected against him specifically.

charles:

i like romeo & juliet plots. sue me. also scott summers has such an enormous stick up his ass that i dont think he would even throw a party in the x mansion, much less abandon the professor.

nightcrawler is just a good kid, he's not going to go cause trouble with mr. lehnsherr. also, his deadbeat mom hangs out with mr. lehnsherr, and kurt has very complicated feelings abt his deadbeat mom.

wanda: she is so fucking mad at her dad. also she needs uncle charlie to help her figure out how to keep her powers under control and not, yknow, tear apart spacetime. like her dad wants. [this helps this au lead into the cherik divorce house of m au, where in wandaworld erik & charles are happily married, and charles isnt a mutant]

angel: angel.

mystique also has a team but its kind of secret. because she didnt tell anyone about it. its just pietro, and hes there because he thinks of her as aunt darkholme and he can talk to her about his daddy issues at regular him-speed without thinking that mystique is ignoring him. also, he doesnt have the patience for charles' long-term mutant plans. he likes to help aunt darkholme break into places.
