I left Tumblr and anything fandom related almost a decade ago and now I'm back making silly little GIFs for a fandom I think might be dead? Either way, I had fun making this!

Here is the original image, I'm a huge fan of all of the season 4 promo images and I never really appreciated them when they came out because I had already left the fandom by then.

something I've appreciated about The Dragon Prince is how it eschews a good/evil, hero/villain binary and instead insists that what matters are choices: the path one chooses to walk. are you fated to walk a dark path? or did you make a choice with every step?

characters say "i had no choice," a lot, but eventually face the truth (usually before a big moment of growth): there's always a choice, and you've always been making choices. this is something pretty much everyone is going thru throughout the series but no one more obviously than Viren (and now, Claudia 😭).

when Viren faces his younger self in the mirror in season 5 and young Viren rejects the idea that he is "fated" to walk a dark path, he places his hand on the glass, saying "i am free, and so are you!" this is one of the series' main theses--alongside whether history is "a narrative of strength or a narrative of love"--that "i have no choice," is never true. our choices are all we have, and they shape our reality by paving the path we take.

Viren has been a worthy and engaging "villain" throughout the series, totally hateable, a grade A baddie, but I'm grateful for how his arc ended in season 6. i admit i shed a tear for that old war criminal.

if history is to become a narrative of love then different choices must be made.

making space for anger and holding "villains" accountable for their harmful choices, but also allowing for those same villains to change (or cut out) their hearts and thereby change the path they have walked--even if it's only in the final few days of a lifetime of wickedness-- all play well alongside the setting of the story: a magical world on the precipice of revolutionary transformation ("a long slow spiral into chaos," as one Star Elf put it).

can't guess how this will play out with the big boss battle against Aaravos himself in the final season, but for now, I'm content w how the writers seem truly invested in exploring these big ideas and applying them to the characters' story arcs.

Scenario where wukong somehow gets freed from the scroll but it costs his everything, he comes home to just crumble but there’s an uninvited guest in his house and he breaks under the weight of his guilt

CRIMINAL RECORD | DANIEL HEGARTY

YES I'M FINALLY HERE TO TALK ABOUT SEASON 5 FINALE

we can see macaque's powers (is it flame or whatever) are CHANGING TO THE THOSE CHAOS POWERS

so, simple question. WHY??!

I mean I'm pretty sure that macaque's attack is one of the reasons... maybe it made a connection between their powers or whatever.. aaaand

of course the opened cage. idk maybe chaos is free now??

because of all this, I want to ask again.

HEY DUDE WHAT THE HECK IS WITH YOUR POWERS??!! IS IT CONNECTED WITH THE LBD AND THAT FIGHT WITH WUKONG????! WHY YOUR SHADOWS TURN INTO CHAOS????????????

but BUT IT'S NOT ONLY ABOUT HIM

THE STAFF THE STAFF

it looks like only macaque noticed this, so it means that mk and wukong know nothing?? it's chaos powers again, is it because of the mk official status of the harbinger of chaos????? how swk is connected with it????? the nine headed demon (I prefer chaos-sunny dude, csd??? nhd????) was talking to him like he should know him. maybe he is? what if it is connected not only with the fact that snake dude woked up mk but with smth happened in the past? the locked memory?? oh shit what will happen in the sixth season?... and who's winning????!

I'm so curious!!! and ready to find a psychologist.

"Macaque, you're you! The real you!"

"The only me!"

So let it be known I love Sonicc >:)

Wait,

HOW has it already been 7 years since season 4?

HOW?

[thesoftboiledegg]

There are valid criticisms of Rick and Morty, but I will NEVER understand why people say the characters don't change, especially Rick. Watch "Final DeSmithation" or "Air Force Wong," then try to tell me he's the same maniac from season three.

Admittedly, I'm not convinced that the people who say that actually watched past season three or four.
