HELLO DFtR COMMUNITY. In regards to the most recent chapter/vote, and in an effort to clear up confusion and keep things fair, I have decided to offer up the chance for a revote.

This new poll will decide between a strict Agree or Refuse

I have not once voted in the polls myself, and I do not intend to now, and while I have my own feelings about which results I would like to see, that is not for me to decide. I want everyone to have a fair chance at determining the end to our story. So! I will be leaving the decision about whether or not to post another poll....with a poll!

Results will be decided when I get home (or in 24 hours, if no clear winner has pulled ahead before then).

Could really go for feeling their entire body weight on top of me while we’re making out, feeling hands grabbing at any part of each other that we can, swallowing the pretty sounds we’re both making… 🫠🫠🫠

... What did they saw?

[eugene-da-potato]

Also, while we're at the topic of the "survivors"

I've been wondering about them and why specifically this combination of characters have been chosen

I think the RGB trio may pull out some kind of a plot, where the survivors could try to find the rest of a cast who have been X'd, so they could get out of the "utter nothingness" Bow has been talking about together, because we need to remember, that Marshmallow, Paintbrush and Apple are currently the only ones, who know Bow's tail story or, what more important for us, know how to escape this place

My only problem here is that for me it's not really clear who could go after who. The only characters it's obvious for are probably Paper, Paintbrush and Suitcase (Paper would go for OJ and maybe other season one exclusive contestants like Bomb, Salt and Pepper, Paintbrush'd go for the Bright Lights and Suitcase'd go for the Grand Slams). Both Knife and Taco are connected to Pickle so it's not clear who is a pick for him. Mic probably would try to find Soap (if she's even dead??? Because the Adamation Team is totally cooking something with her disappearance) and also maybe other season two debutants like Trophy, Tissues, Cheesy and Cherries? Although I think Cherries could as well be assigned to Paper and OJ. Not sure about Ying Yang tho. And also not sure about any of season three contestants. I mean, an easy pick for them is Paintbrush, because they're the only one out of survivors (well, aside from Box) who has competed in season three. But I think some characters like Clover and Tea Kettle could be assigned to Suitcase's task because of their connection to Nickel and Baloon. Also I have no clue what Marshmallow and Apple could do because they don't seem to have any connections with anyone aside from Paintbrush, Knife and each other.

Sorry for a lot of rumbling, I just overthink a thing that a lot of people are confused about

"Why where you looking for me?" Cellbit begged for an answer "you weren't supposed to do that"

Just imagining what his husband could've gone through was painfull for him.

"I let you go and stayed on Egg Island because-..."

Cellbit just wanted Roier to be happy, even if it wasn't by his side and he was going to explain that but Roier's tired voice interrupted him.

"Pendejo... I told you, didn't I? I told you that if something happened to you I wouldn't stop until I found you... I promised I would come for you no matter what... I don't give a shit about the reason why you stayed on Egg Island"

"I-..." Cellbit tried to start a sentence but stopped when he felt his husband's cold touch against his cheek.

"Look me in the eyes and tell me to go away... tell me you never want me to look for you again... only then I'll leave you alone, did you hear that? filho da puta"

Even if Cellbit wanted to, he couldn't do that.

He couldn't lie to those brown eyes.

So he didn't say anything. Instead, he put his hand on Roier's in an attempt to give him some warmth.

"I knew it" it was barely visible, but a tired smile appeared on Roier's face "you can't fool me, pendejo"

"You're right, I can't... Guapito" Cellbit smiled slightly when he pronounced that nickname.

"Let's build a new home, Gatinho"

"Or we can ask Foolish to do it"

"No, no, no... what a way to ruin the moment cabrón" said Roier playfully "I won't try to be romantic ever again"

Cellbit laughed softly as he helped his husband up.

"Let's get out of here"

"Let's go, but if you ever leave me again without saying anything you'll meet the chancla, eh... did you understand, Gatinho?"

"Loud and clear Guapito"

oc tober day 10: personality. this is my character cirillo toscani, he used to be an actual stage actor, then was forced to become a nepotism baby businessman (part of one of the families that used to be so rich they ran like All trade in fantasy eurasia + north africa but they are all gradually losing power in recent years. ie the past several centuries), but he got fired from that too so now he is just a regular liar. though he gradually obtained more values over time due to a genuinely compassionate heart, he has spent his entire life being manipulated and guilt tripped by others, still being pretty spineless in the present day. he's also a social chameleon who can blend into any group and displays completely different personalities depending on context, which is why I drew him here as an actor waiting for his cue

to address the Thea stuff. the reasons ppl don't like her kinda matched to what I said at the end about ppl being more willing to forgive the white characters for things:

1. the age gap. it's only 4 years, and any relationship only begins after kevin is 18. and he was the one who had a crush on her when he was younger, not the other way around. People tend to spread lies about this, things that weren't said in the ec such as saying they're relationship started when he was 14 and she was 18, which I mentioned in my original anon.

2. the 'agression'. I don't think she's aggressive. she was angry yeah, which she had every right to be after kevin ghosted her. he was obviously going through a lot, but of course given he didn't communicate this, she didn't know. she can only work off what she knows. again I just see this as the fandom being very uncharitable to her. kevin chokes neil when he's angry so I really don't think she's the aggressive one in this relationship. and if she is, she's not alone.

3. devotion to the ravens. again, so is kevin. People forgive him for this because he's obviously been brainwashed by them. but so has she. again, just seems like people forgiving other characters for things they wouldn't forgive her for.

4. randomness of relationship with kevin. I don't think it's random? I'm not a fan of their relationship, but people love to ship kevin/Jean primarily cause they were ravens together. kevin and Thea were ravens together, it makes sense they'd grow close. they're both also very dedicated to exy, a common reason people ship neil/kevin. so idk? to everyone's taste ofc, but it still isn't a valid reason for her to get the hate she gets.

idk necessarily about people liking her more if she was a fox. probably? she's very similar to kevin, and people like him. and I can imagine people not liking him if he stayed a Raven and we saw him through a fox perspective. so you're probably right.

on her only having a scene or two and not being very likeable in them. I guess again, it asks the question of why she's not likeable in these scenes? I think people don't want to view things from her perspective, and there can be a lot of reasons for that ofc.

Jean has more scenes than her, but he's not 'likeable' in many of them. He's rude, just like Thea was. He holds Neil down when he's getting tortured. He arguably should be more disliked, but he's not. I think people are more willing to offer him understanding because they're more willing to see things from his perspective. He acts this way because he's a traumatised cult member, and that's exactly why Thea acts the way she does.

It's hard to describe the hate people have for her if you haven't seen it much, but more often than not it goes far beyond 'this character just doesn't show up much so idrc'. People tend to hate her with a passion similar to the hate they view Riko with. Again, people call her abusive and a pedophile semi-reguarly. It goes beyond her just being a little unlikeable.

There was a motivation for a decent number of fans to spread these lies about her character, and I'm curious what that motivation was I suppose? cause I certainly don't do that for characters I just find unlikeable. Or characters that didn't have many scenes. Even if most fans aren't actively racist, they've bought into and fueled lies that were likely spread with racist motivation.

i honestly don't really disagree with you on anything (like the age gap wasn't something I personally ever paid attention to, I was saying that's what other people have a problem with. and honestly I do think that's fair for them, it just never stuck out to me) except for the fourth point bc I will maintain that their relationship is random. not random in a 'these two people are incompatible' way but in a 'the first time we hear Kevin even has a girlfriend is like 2/3 into the last book of the series and the chemistry (to me at least) seemed incredibly lacking but we're supposed to assume they're in love'

but I think you just might be overestimating how much people think about her. again: she's a very very minor character and I don't think people will necessarily go out of their way to see things through her perspective because of that. honestly I feel like what you said about Jean explains it p well: he does worse things than Thea but, even though he's also minor, we see way more of him than Thea we see him vulnerable and at his worst and there's more there that shapes him as a complex person. I genuinely think that if she had even as much screen time as Jean it'd be a different conversation.

but however, out of all the minor characters in the series she is one of the ones that gets the least mercy from the fans and that definitely feels racist to me. i don't think people need to explain and dissect why they dislike a character (especially characters as complicated as Nora's) but the fact that it's so easy for fans to just jump on a hate train for the only canon WOC is deeply unsettling.

I think the complexity of Nora's characters actually make aftg fans really weird and intense when it comes to defending/attacking characters. I remembered being rlly taken aback by the Aaron and Nicky and like Allison hate that I saw when I first started engaging with other fans because so much of it just seemed not true and wayyyy overexaggerated??? idk if it's the fans themselves or the content that makes them so intense but.

A lot of the kids I teach like Kimetsu no Yaiba so I kinda wanna watch it so I'm familiar with it but also I watched some street interviews with Japanese people about anime and it's the most commonly-given answer to the question "what's the most overrated anime?"

After saving the land before them Zelda and link were tied and they need to sleep. So they went on there Horse to the Village to Link’s house. As Zelda was so happy she was also glad to know that all that had happened was all in the past.

Zelda was so happy to not be in the Castle trying to stay awake. Everything was fine now she was with Link. When they got about 4 hours away Zelda saw that there were some people out in the distance. She had not seen people in forever she said to link to set up camp for the night and she would go talk to the people and she would come back with some food so they could cook.

Link looked at the people in concern I will be fine just go set up camp he nodded his head. Zelda loved to see the blue sky and the birds and the sway of the grass she never wanted to it to end. When she started talking to the people they were a little of but she just thought that they were excited to see her they just offered bananas to her. All at once she remembered that Link told her about a Yiga clans they would look like a normal person but they were not.

she screamed “Link” he came running at full speed and right on time the Yiga clan members were not the week kind but the much harder to kill ones. One did have a bow though Link killed the one with a sword first but the one with a bow was so fast Link told Zelda to run back to camp she didn’t want to leave him alone but she went behind a big rocks and hid.

Zelda Hurd nothing but a sweet sound of a little bird chirping in the distance. Then she heard a scream it sounded like a link she ran all the way to him the Yiga was not dead but it retreated because it has fulfill its duties. It had shot Link right in the chest with his bow 4 times he was wheezing and gasping for air. Link grabbed two of the arrows and pulled them out. Zelda squinted with fear she knew that it needed to be tended to right away. But all she had was bananas and a small cloth she was watching him grab the other two arrows and he was pulling them out. He Was in a great amount of pain. She tried to talk to him for the very first time she said “ we need to get you to a stable first but we then will rush to Hatnao village”. Link tried to speak but the pain took over.

“shh you need to save your strength right now” Zelda said. She could tell that he Was in A lot of pain. Blood started to turn his clothes red and Zelda new that she will need to hurry or he wouldn’t make it! she said to him can you get on the horse he said. I-can try-to get on…. She was getting so worried that he wouldn’t be able to make it. She helped him get on the horse and they started to ride.

after about an hour or so it started to get worse they were about 20 minutes away from the staple. And he fell off his horse Zelda jumped off and rushed to the side. He was Groaning with pain as much more blood came out. At this time he was as white as the cloud He was barely breathing and struggling when he was. They finally got to a stable she found some cloth and wiped off the wound with some water. He was wincing with pain she didn’t want it to be painful but she wanted to be clean.

she turned one of the horses in so they could ride together in and he can rest. Zelda did not notice how much blood he had Lost buddy was struggling because of the blood loss they were almost to the village about only 30 minutes away when it started to get worse blood was rushing out now and Zelda was worried. The time before his eyes were open but his eyes started the clothes slowly.

Zelda knew it had to be because of blood loss or was that the reason she turned around and stop the horse she put her hand to Link’s for head he had a very high fever. She knew that the fever was going to cause some pain and some discomfort but she knew she had to get to the village that was all of her concern. when she made it to the village people came running out of their houses link was not awake anymore so They took him to his house and laid him down on the bed. Zelda fell asleep on the bedside Well they tend to his wounds.

She was still very worried for him but than her friend pura came in she said check it her normal thing she looked at link and said what happened Zelda explain to the story as pura made some food on the stove for when he woke up and fore them of course. They talked for hours then Link woke up wai-r am I… don’t worry you’re in your house he fell back asleep after about 20 minutes he was obviously exhausted from blood loss and a fever. After he was all better and able to walk again I Zelda and him continue their adventures as one! The end.

I NEED TO KNOW UR THOUGHTS ON THE FINALE OF ARCANE

I’m gonna give you thoughts on all three episodes, mostly because I NEED to yap. And I just watched this so you’re getting it hot off the presses

Episode 7-

Timebomb shippers WON bro. I really liked this episode mostly cause it had my boy in it after not seeing him forever and ever. I would die for space buns powder. I also just really vibe with alternative reality type stuff in shows. Only thing is it felt a little out of place? Maybe just cause so much happened the other two episodes. But it was rlly good. Rip Lorax.

Episode 8 and 9 -

Im already forgetting which scenes were in which so they’re combined. MY FUCKING GIRL. Jinx!!! Jinx 😭😭😭😭 what the fuck. I had a 6th sense she was gonna die but Riot I’m coming for your fucking heads. Arggggggh. Oh also Ambessa but idk she was really evil I feel less sad about her <- cried when she called Mel a wolf. I was really into Mage Mel im a little disappointed they didn’t go more into that. Jayvik shippers how we feeling about the gay evaporation combining space whatever that happened with them? CAITVI SHIPPERS HOW WE FEELING??? Sex scene + happy ending we stay winning that’s more than any other ship can say.

Overall….idk what to think. I literally just finished the finale so I need to think it over. I kinda feel like it was too rushed. I feel like a bunch of stories needed more development and more explanation. The ending felt too fast, the character deaths and developments and betrayals….didnt really hit as hard as they could have. Like Maddie for instance. Don’t really feel like much was done with her. Idk. That being said it was a beautiful finale, and I had a lot of things I did like, just. Idk.

What did you think? I really wanna hear your opinions :]
