#should i do more of these

[tesseractrave]

I wasn't originally going to post this, but my friend said, "post it, no balls," so now I have to. 😔

Did anyone else notice that S1E3 had a different art style than the others? I sent this screenshot to a friend and received the prompt response of "please give him brown contacts I'm literally shaking", so I laughed and put it into my photo editor to do that for the joke, but then I just... kept going. So now we have Harold Ramis's Egon Spengler in The Real Ghostbusters! Oops... maybe I'll do the other characters to finish the set. All because of Egon's blue-eyed stare. 😭 Sorry, RGB Egon, I promise I love you.

I know my account is mostly shitposts but I need to scream about this. spoilers ahead!! jun wu is such a well-written villain. xie lian has absolute trust in him, he looks up to him, he's been his role model ever since he was young so obviously you wouldn't suspect him, right? even from an outside perspective, the literal heavenly emperor is the last person you'd expect to be a calamity. it was such an amazing plot twist and it makes so much sense once you learn his motives xie lian was uncannily similar to him - both crown princes, both once beloved gods, both faced with destruction, both doing outlandish deeds to save their kingdom; hell, even born under the same star. jun wu understandably saw him as the perfect apprentice. no one else could really understand the pain he had to go through, so he took it upon himself the second he saw the opportunity the "body in abyss, heart in paradise" quote also is just.. amazing foreshadowing. that was the moment jun wu began pushing him towards the same fate he was doomed to out of envy and anger. it struck him so hard and understandably so, since he turned to insanity after the physical and mental torture he was put through. like I mentioned before, it's amazing foreshadowing to xie lian's choices later on in the book. he was faced with the hell jun wu had specially prepared for him, the same hell he experienced, but he still chose to do good and be kind. I can imagine jun wu's disappointment after he finally made xie lian reach the brink of insanity only for him to snap out of it because of a single water merchant (which I'll probably also make a rant about) they're perfect narrative foils in every single way and books 6-8 are my absolute favorites. mxtx's writing is absolutely amazing tl;dr: jun wu was the perfect villain and I don't understand why people say he overreacted

What if

I wanted to rant about Electra

And did

Okay a lot of this ranting is just made up nonsense! ( Obv based off the musical itself ) I'm rewriting the musical to my tastes and would like to actually discuss the characters more than the musical is able too. This is more like a TV show set-up to be honest.

Okay main point I want to get out of the way. Electra is an antagonist. But he SUCKS at being a antagonist- for rusty. I genuinely don't remember any times he actually addresses rusty that's like actually important. He's really just a driving force against greaseball. He seems way more upset about diesel than steam. Though to be fair, he seems so confident in himself I doubt he's worried about some kid who's just kinda there.

Because Electra just appears. Unlike rusty and greaseball who are established to know each other. Electra literally just APPEARS. He's not part of the nationals. He wasn't even originally entered into the race. He just appears. And is here now. And he just wants to show off and beat the previous champion. Why would he acknowledge the steam engine who has no chance???

He doesn't even do anything outwardly malicious. I mean he listens to Red Caboose's plan and doesn't really mind that they cheat. And uhm. I guess he goes with pearl but she consented and willingly did that so it's not .. the worst. And he sometimes electrocutes people. But really most of the musical he just stands next to rusty and greaseball fighting while like " :/ " or just flirting with the components or something I don't know.

Of course this doesn't change the fact he's an asshole. He's apathetic and very naive honestly. He only cares about himself, and has tantrums like an actual toddler. He doesn't even ask out the pretty girls himself he has his accountant/security guy do that lmao. He's obviously not a guy used to doing anything himself. Or used to losing. And is just generally annoying to anybody who meets him. But he's probably the *most* redeemable of the three antags. In of which. Idk I feel like just having him live at the Apollo-Victoria for a few years or something would help just get him out of his stupid attitude hfhdbdb

A little bit indulgent perhaps. But i feel like in a episodic setting Electra would probably lose some of his apathetic tendencies. Not all of them- he's a computer. And he'll always be self centered and care a lot less about others feelings than most. But I could truly see him befriending Rusty, pearl, maybe even Dinah. Though I don't know if he'd ever get along with greaseball... Give it like 20 years... Maybe more... A lot of time.

But I truly think with the right circumstances he could just be??? A confident guy who is a bit inconsiderate?? Probably still whiny because you can't take the diva out of Electra but y'know what I mean.

Even MORE indulgent. I want a Dustin and Electra friendship SO BAD YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND. These two are like. Opposites. But in the way that I just feel like they would help each other SO MUCH RAAAH. Electra is confident but struggles with empathy?? Dustin is overly empathetic and very insecure?? THEY COULD HELP EACH OTHER SO MUCH AAAA. Ok ok I need to stop with that.

But essentially I just think that Electra is this young guy. Like really young. He's one of the ( potentially, the youngest ) youngest people in the cast. Only a few years in service and he's already got a horrific ego. Just because he is TRULY good at racing. Can't take that from him. Even if he's very late. Like. Really late to the entry. But I just think he's this young guy who kinda threw himself into the wrong situation. Probably not realizing that messing with Caboose is a horrible idea. And that he was unknowingly racing against gods favorite so. oops.

Ok anyway I should shut up now ok I like Electra he's cool but he's a horrible antagonist but I love him and this probably is really hard to read (⁠＾⁠∇⁠＾⁠)⁠ﾉ⁠♪

Oh also why does nobody ever use his hypnotism powers. He has those. Are- are we going to ignore that-?? Ok...

I woke up in the middle of the night and started aggressively writing an episode of Universe City

Universe City – Episode 49 – do not trust shiny animals

In distress. Stuck in Universe City. Send help. Scroll down for transcript >>>>

Hello. I hope somebody is listening.

Ah, February. I bet your intelligence would have helped me in this situation. You always knew what to do when we were together… If only you would have been trapped with me in this stupid city, maybe I wouldn’t have gotten myself in the situation in which I am right now.

I’m currently hiding behind a giant tree. I may have a few hours before… that thing gets here. That thing almost killed me, all because of a stupid thing I did! I should have known not to trust anyone, not even a shiny cheetah.

It may have some kind of power, though. It seemed to be able to communicate through feelings, emotions. Maybe its communication skills go beyond that? Maybe if I captured it i could use it to manipulate the signal I’m using to communicate? Or even the mediums that are being controlled right now? After all, the technology here is so advanced it may have its own emotions. I should investigate that later.

Well, let’s recap. I was walking around, searching for provisions and bullets, you see, when the shiny cheetah appeared. It was truly beautiful, to say the least. It glowed in a blue shade I had never seen before, so magical, yet so whimsical only a thing from a city like this could have. Its spots seemed to form a pattern. Maybe I should draw it on paper when I see it again. Well, the cheetah approached me and I couldn’t move. I know, it sounds stupid, but it really got in my brain.

It roared. Not an aggressive roar, but a soft, tempting noise. It kept doing that for a while. I couldn’t hear any other thing while the cheetah roared. It truly blocked out everything else. I could only hear the cheetah. I could only hear the roar. It was the most beautiful thing I saw here in Universe City. It gave me hope. False hope, it turned out, but hope. And that was the only thing I needed. Hope.

EXTREME METAL SUBGENRE AESTHETICS FOR NEWBIES

death metal: rusted meat hooks and spent shell casings. mortuary fumes and dried bloodstains on barbed wire. blood gushing from broken noses and shattered teeth. hordes of zombies pounding at the doors and windows. necromancers cackling over occult rituals as their flesh melts from the bone. black metal: corpses frozen standing up in an arctic wasteland. whispering spirits of dead travelers beckoning humans to their doom. violent blizzards smothering mountain cabins. distant wails of damned souls in catacombs dripping with fetid water. hissing breath behind your ear, only to find nothing when you turn to look. hooded figures chanting in rasping, rattling tongues about an occult sigil, summoning creatures of untold fathoms. grindcore: burnt tire rubber and vehicular manslaughter. screams of wrongfully imprisoned asylum inmates, locked away for political dissidence. torn vocal chords. squatters' dens in abandoned industrial infrastructure. biohazard needles left in piles of junk in abandoned factories. warehouses with roofs caved in. the stench of pollutant smog and toxic waste belched into public water supply. resistance even in death.

ALSO IMPORTANT TO NOTE, people dropping mad mad sums of money on gfms and charities and stuff are extremely impressive but that DOES NOT MEAN that putting like $5 towards someone's fund or any good cause is any less valuable, a lot of crowdfunding is about momentum and those single digits add up super fast, you do not need to be Rolling In The Dough to make someone's day!! moving the dial at all is extremely positive!!
