hi everyone you should play Freeride

anyways here's the Dakler

[onesidedradiostatic]

some of the tags on my edit are making me think:

do you think random sinners who watched everything in stayed gone and never met alastor in person have like fan interpretations of how he looks like based on this one shitty drawing and his voice.

some draw him with a full body of fur. some draw him with a nose, some draw him without a nose. they come up with their own colour palettes too and they all look very different. there are some popular, agreed on interpretations of him too that are commonly drawn

some have interpreted the monocle to be a goofy mismatched eye so there are a lot of people who draw him like that too with one big eye and one small eye

vox has seen all of them and lost his mind about them because they're so WRONG AND INACCURATE (okay maybe he laughed at some of them, but how the hell is he going to enjoy sexy alastor art if they all draw him wrongly? and val doesn't care enough to draw him often) and he wonders if he should have just used the actual picture he had of him for his news broadcast instead so he wouldn't have to be subjected to these horrendously inaccurate interpretations of him. this is why he sent a proper reference when he commissioned luci--

my favorite part of mcytblr is where every two months something batshit insane goes down that turns every single blog into pure chaos only for a cc to notice and send everyone into a frenzy worse than before

random thought regarding ares in epic the musical

especially the moment when he says "really, athena? these old tricks?", but the entirety of his appearance will be talked about

technically, it's still a part of aphrodite's part, because ares comes in before his announcement by the choir

the phrase is a response to athena's plea for aphrodite to change her mind, the plea itself is very heartfelt

is seems like athena tries to appeal to aphrodite's emotions and soften her stance on odysseus's case

then, ares comes in with a rebuttal

some animatic artists have depicted his entrance as being in order to protect aphrodite and to not allow athena to shaken aphrodite's conviction

which i believe to be correct. ares believes in aphrodite and her opinion on things, which is coincidentally the same (fuck odysseus) but for different reasons that are all her own

back to "these old tricks"

ares and athena are both gods of war, although ares is more of the violence and bloodshed, while athena is more strategy and calculated movements

both are war in their very beings, but one (ares) is specifically motivated to bring as many people to their doom as possible, while athena just does not consider the loss of life, just the best strategy for accomplishing a goal

ergo, one could say athena's way of "doing war" could be viewed as softer and weaker by a being like ares, who's goal is to cause pain and death in as large quantities as possible

athena's plea of emotion is, in ares's eyes, a trick, meant to make aphrodite question herself and her conviction, a strategy to win

(which it is, to be clear)

to end it all, let's look at ares's part really quick

he accuses odysseus of not fighting scylla, of deceiving troy (which he favored in the trojan war), he calls him a coward

in the general mythos, or at least one i am familiar with most, ares is a god of war without rules, he values injustice in the same way athena values justice, and that is the main difference between the two

in epic, ares seems to have a code of honor, so to speak

he deems the trojan horse cowardly, he speaks as if he expected odysseus to fight scylla and die doing so, rather than sacrifice his man and make sure the others survive

ares in epic believes, it seems, in fighting a losing battle in name of dying with glory, rather than taking a "cowardly" way out using a more advanced strategy or sacrificing a part of a whole (like six crewmen)

what is most interesting to me, besides the different interpretation of ares than the one i'm used to, is his mention of telemachus

"pathetic and weak like his son" were his exact words

we know from "we'll be fine" that telemachus has never been in a fight before "little wolf", and with the suitors in the palace and much stronger than him, it's not a surprise.

ares's words seem to, again, reflect his "better die fighting for what is right than live in shame" mentality. he sees the suitors in ithaca and a prince that's doing nothing, rather than fight and kill (or more possibly die) to protect his land and more importantly, his mother

the influence of aphrodite shows up here again, as she did speak up for odysseus's mother, and now ares scolds telemachus (long-distance, of course) for failing his own mother

anyway, that's it for ares, he is my favorite and a little (lot) fucked up lol

In that weird headspace where my brain is focused on a couple of different stuff, so I wanted to combine them a bit into a Lucifer art (because he is baby).

We have EPIC The Musical in the 6 serpents heads behind Luci (inspired by Scylla)

We have a small hint of Stranger Things in the way the serpent heads split open into four.

And then obvs there’s Hazbin Hotel.

[tango-but-everywhere]

Ok so I had an idea and this is the form it decided to present itself as:

VOTE FOR JOE!!! HE’S LOSING AND THERE’S AN ALLIANCE AGAINST HIM!! AND REMEMBER:

Commit to the bit.

Voters are to be treated fairly, this is a friendly competition.

Fraud.

[ID: a sketched digital comic that has three almost-panels, but they’re not closed off. It’s titled ‘Location: Tango-But-Everywhere HQ’. It features a character drawn in red, only their head and right hand visible. They have mid-length curly hair, pointed ears and large glasses. In the first panel they’re considering a piece of blue paper with the words ‘I’m done campaigning’ on it. They have a concerned, almost thoughtful look on their face. The second panel is nearly identical, except the paper has caught fire and they’re smiling. The final panel which takes up the bottom half of the page features the character with a large smile, pointing to the right where the words ‘VOTE JOE HILLS’ is visible in large, bright green text, with a smaller ‘please’ underneath it. The burning paper lies discarded to the left, and the left side of their face is lit up by the flames with orange lineart on top of the red. End ID]
