Beyond Evil: from distrust to devotion

[fourswords]

to be quite honest shadow's characterization in the fsa manga was always something that raised more questions than answers for me because it's like. he's got a mile-wide inferiority complex about being link's shadow we all know this but when did he have the time to develop that inferiority complex in the first place. how long was he lurking around after ganon created him before the events of the manga actually started. what did he witness or hear or both to make him so fucking angry

inverted jensen is so scary

sorry im convinced that a decent chunk of scourge fans either havent read the comics at all or just made up a guy in their head to give scourge's design to because why do so many people keep trying to make him into a traumatized sadboy. "scourge isnt evil hes actually just deeply traumatized and lashing out because hes sad" no hes not hes literally just an asshole ????? what

Enough babying curly let's talk about how he's a grown man. A fucked up one at that.

Let's talk about how he is nice but not kind he is the type of man to do crowd control. Sit at the backline and trying to minimize instead of solve anything. He's like pain meds in a funny way. Made to temporarily ward off pain but never treat the root cause. He's the very real representation of the bystander effect. Of men who will make excuses and pardon people he should not because he doesn't want to cause trouble. Doesn't want to strain an already odd relationship he has with jimmy. So internal he decides it's the best decision to take the soft route, the unproblematic one, a compromise when there shouldn't be one.

He's a doorstep for someone like jimmy. In a way they are perfect for each other in the sense that for once jimmy is around someone who doesn't mind him, can put up with it for the sake of peace, knows he can dog walk him with enough 'I'm sorry"s and feigning sadness under his fears of abandonment.

And curly is responsive to that, soooo much to the point that he takes up the role of men who are friends with abusers. People who go "well they didn't hurt me so!" Always trying to find a middle ground until he can't anymore

"fnaf is the scariest game ever" "no its silent hill" "well i think its resident evil" everyone shut up!!!!!! youre all wrong. its actually zack & wiki quest for barbaros' treasure (on the nintendo wii) but only the level "keeper of the ice". that level scared me so bad as a kid and you can tell because its the only individual level i remember the name of off the top of my head. like there is nothing scarier than a) being chased and b) being on a time limit. and you know what this level has? BOTH OF THOSE. this level is still scary to me im like AHHHHH!!!! and then i die

Hi yes hello I’m here to ask about your funny joke character

YES HI HELLO. I already posted this specific pictures but this is my joke character Jordon. He’s Gordon's evil mirror counterpart and is just the epitome of the bad analysis Gordon gets by people who aren't in the fandom.

An evil asshole who genuinely thinks everyone else is beneath him and should be scrapped because they're lowly. He kidnapped and replaced Gordon, thinking he would blend in seamlessly on Sodor but everyone immediately recognized that he was a fake. Edward and Henry didn't even have to think at all when they saw him.

His full name is Jordon The Evil-Engine.

He also has a brother the Trotting Irishman. (Ignore his outfit I sketched this in like 30 seconds). Ire does not have eyebrow game like his mirror self and has to draw it on in crayon. Like he has that big Crayola crayon box with the sharpener in the back and that's his eyebrow pencil. Anyways Ire and Jordon hardly speak to each other and often forget that the other exists. And they have a strained relationship that will never ever mend.

Can't have made these guys without the help of my friends @sekiumiarashi and @attllhak And please don't take this post too seriously these are joke characters. Anyways I love them they're horrible in every way and now we have a mirror au as a joke. Where everyone has a mirror version

i'm not back back, i just wanted to let you that I'm still alive as well as share some holiday cheer with some poorly edited christmas cards from the mm and wtsr cast!

[Text ID: Dear Y/n \ Everyone can't wait to see you again: Nora's been baking overtime and don't tell her but Callie’s been chain smoking like crazy, waiting for you to come back; Kennedy's still glowing from when you two last spoke and I've never seen her so happy, and don't even get me started on Alex! They keep asking about you and I'm certain they're being more annoying than usual on purpose. \ We all miss you lots and lots - but not as much as Gralex - and we're counting down the days until we can all be together again. \ All my love, Grayson. End ID]

[Text ID: Hey y/n, \ You've been away for awhile and I miss you so I thought I'd write. I hope you're doing well and there aren't any residual effects of you-know-what. \ It's been quiet here but my brother comes by often. Sometimes he brings his friend, Enoch, and I think you'll like him! He's kinda shy at first but very sweet once you to know him. \ I also got a letter from someone named "N" who's looking for you? Maybe they're from your past and can help figure out who you are. \ I hope you come back soon, it's a bit boring here without you. \ Sincerely, Rivka. End ID]

thank you everyone for sticking with me even during my break, it means a lot to me. i hope you all enjoy the holidays and the new year, and that you stay safe!

hi its me again. song person

i. completely forgot to send the third song and am only realizing this now. i think additional memory by jin fits your v2 pretty well (also it is a masterpiece of a song like GOT DAM!!!)

(also heres an english cover too because it also fits and i like it)

AUGH......the thought of v2 having a dream-life it's constructed all in its mind because reality has been so unfair to it and the inevitability of that dream crashing down on its head when the real world finally catches up to it striking again!!!!!

v2 is a character made of potentials, of possibilities, yet at the same time was doomed to fail from the start. v1 was made specifically for war, it had a job that only ended up being rendered irrelevant by the new peace, whereas v2 was a nonstarter because it can't escape its basis in v1. it holds great promise, but its confused conception leaves it purposeless - it can't be used in the new peace for expense and its violent core, it can't win in hell because it was trained on peace and, in a sense, it's actually inferior to v1 in many ways. because it was hastily put together, it doubtless had many parts that weren't optimized or adapted properly to the v-series frame and so actually less efficient than its predecessor. but it believed deeply in its own potential, trained so extensively in human thought that it gained its own sense of imagination, of fantasy, of dreams. and it dreamed of all it could do, dreamed that it would bring peace, dreamed that it would be the most supreme of the supreme machines

like i mentioned, at this point i do think of the primary motivations of v1 and v2 being their respective roles as war and peace, and this is how the two come to conceptualize each other, especially in v2's case. it knows why v1 was made and it looks down on its crude purpose, keenly aware it is perhaps the biggest threat to be neutralized now that it too has come to rove hell. v2 has run the simulations, it has fought v1 in its imagined scenarios, and it understands just how to destroy it, how to claim victory for no one but itself. it's waited so long to prove its potential, it's carried an immense fantasy so much more detailed and intricate in its way than what human minds could manage, it's consumed with the role it could play, will now play. it's a diorama of its purpose, a symbolic play to defeat v1, but it would mean a realization of its dreams and add that tangible quality to ephemeral thoughts. but the encounter goes wrong, it doesn't follow its simulations and fantasies. v2 has to run to save its life and it becomes obsessed with that failure, it has to dissect it so that its world doesn't shatter.

but none of that matters. it can analyze v1, it can analyze itself, it can repair its body and its pride to the point where it waits for that second encounter on a throne, but how can peace win against war in hell? it is fatally driven to confront v1 a second time because it can think of nothing else, it needs to stop oncoming war and it needs to secure the dreams it has lived off of in a world constantly threatening to tell it they mean less than nothing. if can defeat v1, it can prove something, that even if humans are gone now....it could have done so much, it should never have been shut down and thrown away. it needs nothing else, its mind overtaken by one more fight to make or break everything that it is, conceptually and internally, cosmically and personally...but the encounter goes wrong. again. it's forced to run, again. but now v1 pursues, v1 has predicted its escape, and all of its promise finally drains from it, all the grand dreams it built alone are revealed to be mirages. it can do nothing, it is going to fail, and it knows v1 will kill it. v1 knows nothing else. v1 does not know peace, and it does not dream. it will kill v2 and it will steal another arm and it will move on without thought. to die in greed, to see the greed in them both with v2's obsession to best v1 and v1's terrible, inexhaustible advance....into wrath it will go. i think v2's last thoughts are that irony, safeguarded a final time against its shattered dreams into loftier thoughts. war moving into wrath just as it destroys peace. it makes sense, maybe. but it is sorry it failed.

👏 okay, so under the influence of the forbidden magic magnifico just had to dabble in despite his adoring wife telling him not to, he actually has a very hazy memory of all the things he did during that time span

[[disclaimer: this isn't a post about to excuse his actions or claim he's innocent because of that influence—he willingly and in conscious awareness of the possible repercussions of dark magic still decided to use it and should be held accountable. but anyway—]]

he was exceptionally drunk with power (and i use that term very literally here) from the moment he opened the book and started using it. that effect only amplified the more he stole the power of the wishes for himself: each broken wish heightening the magic's control over him until, by the time he was capturing star, he was totally unhinged and barely had any conscious control over his actions

the magic feeds into and intensifies the negative traits he already has: all that narcissism, that hunger for power, that overwhelming arrogance. it has to draw from something, but it still is the reason magnifico goes so completely feral by the end of things

when he's trapped in the mirror, he's himself again—his cognizance is back—but his ability to recollect every little thing he did is foggy (and at first, he still fully believes he was in the right for using the book to begin with; so, yes, still not excused)
