I've said this and that about Mel meeting Swain, uprooting the Black Rose, and just dealing with family politics, but I may be most excited with how she deals with Vladimir. To me, Mel and Vladimir have really similar stories, where they're sent away by their parent for political gain, achieve incredible magical strength under extreme duress, and ultimately kill their parental figure. The difference between the two is that under the weight of everything, Vladimir became the thing most people inaccurately accuse Mel of being.

Vladimir is a charismatic aristocratic manipulator who is completely and utterly looking out for his own self-interest. Despite being an incredibly consequential person to the very existence of Noxus, a co-founder of the Black Rose, and having helped seal Mordekaiser away, he was actually pretty checked out by the time the Swain's coup against Darkwill happened. Now he's just using the situation to bulk up his own cult, the Crimson Circle, and maybe carve out his own kingdom from Noxus at some point too.

Vladimir is just such a clear antithesis of who Mel could be if she didn't care, if she lost her compassion and gave into the cynical nature of power. And I think Mel's new title as a champion, "The Soul's Reflection" is so interesting when you include Vladimir in the dynamic. Vlad's a blood mage with vampire-coding, and vampires don't have reflections, and Mel doesn't need to "reflect" Vladimir because they're already so similar.

Also I think it's neat that Mel and Vladimir are the only Noxians with base designs that make them look like they're going to a ball. Is it the same ball? ?...Maybe?

(Extra also! Mel has sun related powers while Vladimir is as close to a vampire as you can get).

I made some joke a while back about like marriage and how if Carmy had Sydney sign a partnership agreement that'd basically be marriage because he's legally binding them. And that was a joke about like if that happened offscreen.

But now the trailer came out and he's having her sign a partnership agreement...as like a major plot point 💀

actually the more I listen and compare the more I think that a better way to describe the difference between the british masc rook voice and the american one overall is that the british sounds like a very real person who is being genuinely fierce and determined despite the fact that they are scared and understand the gravity of the situation. and the american one sounds like they might really be deeply fucking nuts enough that when the chips are down they are not even really afraid they're busy being a creature of pure 'go go go!!' fjdsklfjsa. when they really hit their stride they become less a person, more some divine instrument being used for the wildest improvised guitar solo you could ever imagine (and desperately trying to keep up with themselves as the rock ballad of inspiration sure is Happening To Them So Much). BIG moist von lipwig vibes, for those in the fandom overlap

so, remember how i was concerned that I wouldn't be very good at game combat with a gun? you know, it actually tuns out...that I was completely right, i am DOGSHIT at it, no combat yet has gone even approachably well. it's embarrassing frankly. i have so many points in pistol and the thing fucking hates me. it's me and my sniper rifle from Very Far Away against the world. she's my only friend, the only Gun that treats me right. thank god gaming is a private pass time, no one should see this

[serenfloras]

i'm gonna say it. for a manga that is so centered on free will, inheritance of will and freedom overall people sure love to theorize about luffy's entire life being forged by others with him being predestined as nika's next reincarnation huh

To conclude this week's leaks session, if such a fuckass plan was greenlit like this, then I'm not delusional to think that toji can come back for one last final frenzy

georgia i am so sick with worry for you

my main confusion with whether or not they'd hard launch / explicitly show more of their relationship is like... if they do a tour i can somehow imagine that being less of a part of it, but also their tour would probably be their last ever (and 3 is a good number). and i can see them wanting to hard launch after, not before, a world tour. that being said i think a documentary would more easily involve that because they'd undeniably talk about the behind the scenes / coming out experience of them as youtubers and if it's like a piece of their career and legacy together that hits mainstream i can imagine kinda autobiographically that's something they'd mention. so documentary feels like way more likely odds of being more explicit than a tour, but i can't tell if they're doing a documentary and then a tour in which case i don't think the doc will have anything like this at all. does that make sense?

gang gets stranded in the woods is a hysterical episode for a lot of reasons but the whole premise of the episode being mac crashed the car because there was a squirrel in the road really makes it. i can think of 20 reasonable options for car trouble that could open the episode or even avoiding a deer in the road (which can happen in rural jersey) but. mac grabbed the wheel to avoid a squirrel.
