#so basically psychic powers

[sincerely-sofie]

Thinking about @gehtsis’s children and how terrifying it would be to get their team assigned to help you escape from a mystery dungeon.

If these are what my heroes look like I'm 99% certain I'd be screaming and running the other way. Menacing cryptid-looking grim reaper and cursed psychic clay doll. I love them.

Look all I'm saying is if that a shadow game can work THAT well and be so well designed story wise and gameplay wise

HE can work

[cluescorner]

Gnomon come back your confusing attitude and ludicrous powerset is intriguing me. I want to see more of what you can actually do because jfc your powerscaling implications and the implications of how fucking powerful Duke could become are insane. Plus it would force the writers to actually WRITE DUKE JFC I MISS HIM

[dailyserirei]

Ooh what if Serirei just talking with their past selves, it could be chaotic with past Reigen being extremely energetic, but just imagine kid Seri too being so anxious and his future self helping him out. Now past Seri has a friend weee

Serizawa to his 14 years old self (quite long):

Reigen to his 14 years old self:

"mutants are poc analogy" "mutants are queer analogy" Listen, X-Men and as such mutants as a whole should really be disability representation, and I mean representation and not analougous to it they just occassionally also get to blast ice while having furniture not built for them, struggles with keeping their mind in the present, and constantly having people casually discuss sterilizing or euthanizing them and being considered either dangerous or simply incapable of understanding when they get mad about this. But nobody is ready for this conversation.

btw to me personally Dimple is funny uncle not only for Mob, but for Ritsu as well.

I mean clearly Mob and Dimple have a special bond, they're besties, their friendship is very important in canon and all, I'm not trying to deny it! But still Dimple and Ritsu do have a history, like. When Ritsu's powers awaken the first psychic experience he had was seeing Dimple. And then Dimple helped his ass in beating random kids to level up his cringe powers and stuff. And like it was messy and stuff, and Ritsu was aware and called out that he knew Dimple was helping out just because wanted to use him, but like... They got over it, putting it simple. Like not that they could never talk about it, but I don't think Ritsu is even mad about it and like Dimple no longer has any plans for using anyone so like. To me they just chill with each other.

Also Dimple basically "haunts" the Kageyama household (when he's not at work at S&S or hanging out in Mob's school), so like. There is so much potential of fun interactions you know?!

And like. I think Ritsu would feel really really glad for all the moments Dimple took care of Mob, like. Most of those times Ritsu didn't even know cause like... pre-finale Mob and Ritsu didn't talk that much so like... I doubt at the time he would know that Dimple was the one that made Mob escape from bullyworld the simulator by mogami stink ass, cause Ritsu don't even know Mob gone throught it. Or like, Ritsu is aware that Shou did a shit plan (technically it was a smart plan but also bro wtf bestie worst idea lol) to make Mob snap, but like I don't think Ritsu know the details that Mob didn't burned the whole world down in grief because Dimple calmed him down. Again, Mob and Dimple have a beautiful friendship, and I think Ritsu would appreciate all Dimple did for his brother.

And once again going back to Ritsu and Dimple history I think Ritsu feel very grateful for Dimple help with his powers and all. It's not like Dimple directly was the cause for Ritsu powers, but still it was important step in figuring out how that shit actually works.

And also. I think this scene:

It's mostly about Ritsu worried about Mob that been... Well zoning out a lot lol. And yeah Mob is in his weird grief (calling it weird cause Dimple powers not letting him remember what happened), and like. Again, pre finale Mob and Ritsu communications sucked, even thought there things got a lot better than it was at the story beggining. So yeah just him looking out for his brother. But like... Ritsu asking Mob if he is ok is something that happens more than once in the series, but my brain can't avoid thinking how like. Two chapters later Ritsu reveals that as a kid he would ask it too because he also wanted share how he is and. like fucking communicate and stuff. And like, it just. I just think Ritsu is also worried here the fuck their weird fart friend is you know?

It's not like people think they aren't friends too, but even in canon they don't have that much interactions after Ritsu arc and I think it's a friendship that would be neat see more of it :]

making another chaos marine oc…

[darkpoisonouslove]

Spoiler. Perhaps Griffin and Valtor based because of who I am as a person?

...The fact that I had trouble thinking of anything about Griffin x Valtor because I have a lot of ideas for them for the rewrite but all of them are discarded in various degrees. I changed the concepts of those scenes and the characters so many times that I have no idea what is going on anymore. That said, I was looking at my notes and I got an exciting, fresh angle to Valtor's behavioral patterns.

Valtor is hilarious in this because after he imprisons Griffin, he's visiting her at least once a day. He just can't help it. She's the only one that truly understands the goal here, not to mention that the Trix make him uneasy. I'm gonna go on a slight detour here about the situation with the Trix to give a better idea of the situation because I wanted to talk about it.

I absolutely despise the idea that the Trix will be so cringefail fight each other over a man. Plus, Darcy is literally Griffin and Valtor's daughter so I have gone in a different direction. First of all, they remind Valtor way too much of the Ancestral Witches and he simply Does Not Vibe TM. However, they will be much more dangerous left unsupervised, especially if any of the ex Coven members get a hold of them. Now while the Trix were with Darkar, they met some of the ex Coven members but, thankfully, none of them mentioned Valtor and his role in events so the Trix are blissfully unaware of who he is.

Valtor would like to keep it that way so he focuses on his divide and conquer strategy where they are concerned. He tries to make them jealous of the attention he pays to each of them but Icy is the only one who might be interested in him romantically sexually. Darcy wants his approval to a point where even she can't understand why until she hears that he was partners with Griffin and she remembers that she had the same feeling towards Griffin so what gives; is he her father and Griffin - her mother (as she has been suspecting for a while now)?* And Stormy just simply does not care as long as there's some shit to wreck AND she's with her sisters. (I can't afford another tangent so I'm gonna put the thing about Stormy in the tags.)

*Imagine the heart attack that Valtor almost has when Darcy starts asking him about his past with Griffin. They have an extremely funny case of misunderstanding where Valtor has heard enough about the Trix' relationship with Griffin to know that they suspect she has some kind of connection to the Coven because she knows things that she shouldn't know so he assumes that Darcy is trying to make him give himself away as part of the Coven and a creation of the Ancestral Witches. Meanwhile, Darcy is just trying to piece together the timeline and figure out if Griffin and Valtor are, in fact, her parents and she's getting so fucking frustrated by Valtor's extremely vague responses that she starts suspecting that he is hiding something about the Coven as well.

So Valtor resorts to plan B, which is to bait them with promises of power. Now the Trix literally need him and the protection he can give them or it's back to jail for them, and they are painfully aware of that fact. Unfortunately for him, that leads them to start digging and finally figure out what the deal is with him but anyway. All of this to say that the Trix have a completely different understanding of his quest for gaining more power and the ways in which he means to accomplish it. For them power is a literal means of survival and their one patented strategy is to steal the most powerful magic they can find so that it's theirs and no one else's. And that is exactly what Valtor convinces them is his own approach - steal all the powerful magic you can. Basically that is what show!Valtor does. However, that is literally just a front and not his main Objective TM and that is what brings me back to Griffin.

Not only was Griffin the only one who was ever truly his partner and not just standing by him because of the Coven's agenda or for personal gain, but she also knows his true method of collecting power - by dictating what people think. If you look at his behavior on the show, Valtor is constantly manipulating people via promises of what they want. There's the Trix, Cassandra and Chimera, Diaspro, even Bloom. Basically, the true power that he collects is the ability to control people's desires and from there directing entire kingdoms to get what he wants. And Griffin gets that. That was her goal as well - to change people's behavior towards dark magic users, which could be accomplished through Valtor's methods of drawing to his side people in key positions of power. Griffin does a certain amount of influencing the thoughts of her own students and their parents (some of whom are royalty/otherwise important political figures) as well.

She's the only one who truly gets his brilliance and he so likes to be admired. The Trix would not understand his true genius and he'd burst at the seams if that goes unrecognized. So he goes to her to brag. He wouldn't tell Griffin the most important details, of course, even if it wouldn't hurt since he's so sure of his victory over her and his ability to keep her imprisoned. This is definitely not the hurt and trust issues of her betrayal resurfacing alongside the simple fact that he misses her. Not just his partner in crime, but the person who would always appreciate him in full, see all of him and his brilliance that is so painfully disregarded by the sheer fact that his true form is characterized by the brute force of his demonic self.

You crying yet?

I should thank you for this ask since it literally focused for me Valtor's entire plan and behavior. I have a much more complete idea of the s3 story now than I did before I started attempting to answer this.

guh... thinking about a community + psychonauts au... yes it's a stretch but what have i ever done that isn't a stretch

[mdrnwitch]

TVDU power scalers make no sense, especially when it comes to witch abilities. Especially because the lore is so messy. Like, everyone overrates their faves because the writing around individual magical abilities is so inconsistent, and it's so annoying.
