#they deserve to kill him i kill him i think

[emmcfrxst]

logan who doesn’t understand your obsession with his hands. i mean these hands, in his opinion, have done so much damage; he’s killed plenty of people, some more deserving than others, and he doesn’t even want to start thinking about the claws— they disgust him so much, so horribly painful in more ways than one; he still recalls the horror of the bones piercing through his skin for the first time, still remembers the nausea that struck him when he woke up to the adamantium claws for the first time, is reminded of their existence with every painful unsheathing of their power…. he doesn’t understand why you want them on you as much as you do, doesn’t understand why you even allow them to touch you, to give you pleasure, to hold you…. he doesn’t think his hands deserve to be on you, but you’re always reaching for them, intertwining your fingers together, pulling them in your lap, bringing them to your face for him to cradle, feeling safe enough to wrap one around your throat while you ride him…. logan doesn’t understand why you’re so enamored with his hands, but he’s grateful for it; it makes him want to be less hard on himself— if you believe his hands deserve to touch you, then why shouldn’t he?

One of the things that pisses me off about MWIII and the lead up to it so bad is that whole "Oh I wasn't in the tank" thing around Graves.

Because it takes away from my success as a player and its just dumb.

But more importantly because Activision for some reason decided to play it like "Look at Soap being so dumb thinking he killed Graves, isn't he a ridiculous little man?" while Graves is given the "strong survivor" treatment by them.

Soap took out a tank.

Without dedicated gear.

He survived multiple assault teams while at it too. Not just survived, he took them out as well.

And then blew up a tank with nothing but some C4 to a point where no one in it could have survived.

Like he did that and you're telling me Graves wouldn't be fucking afraid of running into that guy again? If being in a tank can't save you from his wrath you're telling me he ever felt safe around him?

Nah. No way. We deserved to see him flinch the moment Soap enters the picture. To keep to the other side of the room. Trying his best to work with anyone but him.

Soap is unhinged and highly dangerous, or he would have waited for his chance to piss off instead of fighting that thing but he gets treated like instead of letting loose of his anger over the betrayal he was just a big dumb dumb and everyone else was in on the joke.

Like fuck man. That also means the player is seen in the same way, like you thought you just won a cool boss battle? Oh you stupid little player, that was for nothing and we're gonna take that feeling of success back. Games don't need to be gratifying, do they?

Actually that probably could be MW3s whole title.

So, Bashir and Garak from Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, won't you?

Bashir is the man who has one big secret and it's his entire life, and he has always assumed it will destroy him if it gets out.

Garak is a man made of fractal secrets. The cast-out student (and secret son) of the head of an empire-wide spy agency. He's stolen secrets from every power in the alpha quadrant. His own personal history is nothing but lies, possibly even to himself. He lies so completely it took Bashir visiting GARAK'S DAD to figure out that "Elim" is his first name.

If truth was a river, Bashir's is wide and free-flowing, with a real big meander where it goes kilometers out of its way to avoid a huge rock that we don't ever talk about.

Garak has dammed his river with endless pebbles of lies. There's no truth there, only more lies. This is a man who lies reflexively, who once claimed (in one of the few true things he ever said) that lying is a skill you must practice constantly.

Garak is such a liar I don't think he really understands how to tell the truth. When he was dying from his addictions, instead of admitting the problem he made of stories to try and scare his doctor off, to let him die. When an assassin showed up to kill him, he got the local police involved by attempting to (almost) assassinate himself first. Garak carries a big hammer labeled "lying" and every problem is a juicy nail.

These are not two different people, this is the same person at different scales. Bashir is one big lie in a Star Fleet uniform, Garak is a multitude of tiny lies in a lizard suit and a very fashionable outfit of his own design.

In Ancient Greek Mythology*, humans were single souls split into two bodies, male and female, forever searching for their other half so they can be whole again.

They may have been wrong about the gender and species, but Bashir and Garak are definitely two parts of the same original material. They were chiseled from the same piece of marble, cut from the same cloth, split from the same soul. They deserve to be together, not because they'd be good for each other (dear God, no. They are terrible for each other in many ways!) but because they're incomplete without each other.

* not to be confused with Star Trek, which is Ancient Geek Mythology.

I'm so glad you've come back with betrothals and brothels, I love that fic! Also I'm so curious about how it's gonna end up bc basically everyone is in love with mc I love that so much 😭 now that your requests are open again, can I ask you something where Aegon and fem!reader are in love but also betrothed to different people and they secretly see each other at night (not only they're in love but pretty horny as well). When they meet for their final night together it's so sad and beautiful and the next day during Aegon's wedding he decides to just marry fem!reader instead (I mean he's king after all??) who of course is present at the ceremony and they're happy and well in the years to come (I'm sorry I can't deal with sad ending at least in fiction I need things to go well 😭)

i love happy ending fics especially with aegon because he deserves all the happiness in the world <3

────── ☾ ──────

“Being sneaky is not my strongest trait, Aegon, sometimes it takes longer than expected.”

“You were supposed to be here last hour, I missed you.”

“I know, I’m sorry, I came as fast as I could.”

“Well I’d hope not,” Aegon teased, frantically pulling your clothes off of your body and tossing them aside, a few garments landing on the wine lining the cellar walls.

You moaned when Aegon connected his lips to your neck, sucking the sweet spot he knew you could cover easily with your hair as you tilted your head back in pleasure.

“Someone’s eager,” you teased, “thought we were going to take it easy tonight? It is our last night together.”

“I hate it when you put it like that,” Aegon sighed, pulling slightly away from you.

You and Aegon had been at this for a while. Since only shortly after you had met, you and Aegon had been in love. Desperate, secretive, lustful love.

You had both hoped your parents would betroth you to one another, but life was cruel. Your father promised your hand to a lord in the Riverlands, and Aegon was promised to his own sister.

No betrothal could stop you from meeting one another in secret, especially late at night.

“It is the truth, you and I both know we cannot continue this after we are wed.”

“The thought of you married to someone else makes me want to vomit,” Aegon said, “you aren’t anyone else’s. You’re mine.”

“I know.”

Aegon sighed and dropped his head, but you caught his chin and tilted his head back upward. “We still have tonight, yeah?” you said.

Aegon nodded his head and immediately leaned in to kiss you, wasting no more time. He unclothed himself as best as he could without breaking away from you.

He backed you up until your back hit a shelf of wine, and a few bottles fell with a cacophony of glass breaking against the ground.

“Aegon!” you jumped, startled by the noise, but he wasn’t phased.

“Oops,” he said, nonchalant, working to kiss you again.

“Aeg, we can’t just leave this here,” you struggled out between kisses, “it- Aegon- if you step on glass it’s not my fault.”

Aegon pulled away and looked into your eyes. “Do you ever shut up?”

“No, but that’s what you love about me,” you smiled.

“Correct,” Aegon responded, “so I say this with love. Shut up and let me fuck you.”

“But there’s glass everyw-“

“Shut up,” Aegon repeated, quieting you himself with a demanding, hard kiss.

Your body instinctively gave in as you lifted a leg up to wrap around Aegon’s waist.

Aegon began to press himself into you, grinding his hips lightly and pushing you more and more into the corks of the wine bottles.

“Fuck, Aegon, we gotta adjust,” you spoke.

“You’re killing me,” Aegon complained.

“Aeg, I’m literally backed against bottles of wine and there’s glass everywhere. How do you think we’re gonna fuck like this?”

Aegon bent down to scoop you up from under your legs. You wrapped your body around him as he walked around the glass, finding a clear spot and slowly lowering your bodies onto the ground. He made sure your back was gentle as it hit the floor, and you clung to him for dear life until you felt grounded.

“Better?” he asked.

“Mhm,” you smiled.

“Good,” he replied, “now shut up.”

He kissed you again, running a hand down the side of your body and eliciting goosebumps. He moved his hand lower and lower until it reached your core.

You gasped as he began to touch you, your back arching off the ground as he rubbed circles on your clit for a moment before moving further down to insert two fingers into you.

While Aegon was usually rough and needy, the moment his fingers were inside of you, he slowed completely, savoring every single breath and gasp from your mouth as he pumped his fingers in and out.

The newer, slower pace was new for you, and it made your moans drawn out.

Aegon smiled and groaned as he watched your face contort. “You’re enjoying this, huh?”

You nodded your head, and your confirmation only added to Aegon’s own arousal. “Yes, but, w-why are you going so slow?” you struggled out.

“If I only get you one more time, I’m gonna make it last.”

You rested your head back down against the floor, allowing your senses to become consumed by the pleasure Aegon was giving you.

He leaned down and kissed your neck again as you squirmed under him.

Though he was moving slow, the pleasure was still intense, as was anything Aegon did. You were so in love with him, and so attracted to him, that any touch from him drove you crazy.

“Aeg, I-“

“Let go for me,” Aegon whispered in your ear.

You immediately came, his words sending you over the edge. He kept his fingers still inside of you as you came, as he always did. He loved tasting you on his fingers when he pulled them out of you, knowing that the sweetness came exclusively from what he could do to you.

You were out of breath, but Aegon was not prepared to waste a single moment.

He reconnected his lips to yours, and despite your newfound tiredness, you pulled him closer.

He gave his cock a few lazy strokes before lining it up with your soaked entrance. “You need me?”

“I always need you, Aegon, you’ll always be the one.”

Aegon slowly inserted himself into you, causing you to let out a soft, long sigh.

He pressed his forehead to yours, and you both watched your bodies disconnect and connect as he began to slowly pump in and out of you.

He looked up at you, and despite the close proximity, you still felt like he was looking straight into your soul.

“I love you so much,” Aegon said, shaky and breathing heavy.

“I love you too,” you said, holding his face in your hands and leaning upward to kiss him.

────── ☾ ──────

You sat in the pew, leg shaking as you tried to restrain from crying or screaming or lashing out and storming off.

“I cannot believe you are truly making me do this,” Aegon whispered to his brother, who stood directly behind him as he waited at the alter for the ceremony to start.

You couldn’t take your eyes off of him. As much as it pained you to look, he was much too handsome. His head was adorned with a prince’s crown, and he was dressed in all black, which contrasted his near-white hair perfectly.

You wished it was you waiting to walk down the aisle toward him. Anyone would be lucky to stand at the alter with him and hold his hand.

Aegon’s eyes scanned the room until they met yours. Even with you sitting, he could see how beautiful you looked. Beautiful and sad, just like him.

The piano’s first few notes began, and the room quieted and stood as everyone prepared for the bride’s entrance. Your body turned toward the end of the aisle, but your head didn’t. You stayed fixed on Aegon.

Heleana began to walk down the aisle, her mother by her side. Though you resented her for what she would now become, she truly looked beautiful, and you held no true ill will toward her. This was not her choice either.

Aegon looked at his bride, and then to you.

You suddenly became very aware of your staring at him, and you didn’t want to ruin the day. You forced yourself to look away, and you dropped your head, taking a deep breath to remain calm.

You stared at the floor and listened to the piano until you heard Aegon.

“Stop.”

You instantly lifted your head and turned toward the source of the noise, and he was already looking straight at you.

He swallowed hard in nervousness. “I cannot do this.”

You and Aegon could not break eye contact if you tried. Aegon took a deep breath, forcing himself to turn and address the room. “My sister is very special to me, but that is how she should stay: my sister. She is not the one I will wed today.”

Your eyes widened in a mix of shock and confusion. There was no way he was actually doing this. Your heart dropped to your stomach. You were nervous, excited, overwhelmed- every emotion all at once.

“I have decided to marry the one I love,” he announced, “if she will have me.”

Tears filled your eyes and you couldn’t help but smile to show your acceptance.

Aegon continued: “I am the King, after all.”

You took a deep breath as Aegon gestured for you to come toward him. You shifted through the pew and into the aisle, turning to Heleana.

“Do not worry,” Heleana whispered, “you are saving me as much as you’re saving him.”

You gave Heleana a hug and she handed you her bouquet of flowers. Her mother protested, but you could not hear. You could only focus on Aegon.

You turned to face him and began to walk down the aisle, the biggest smile on your face as you made your way across from him.

You handed your bouquet to the woman standing nearest to you, and put your hands in his.

I think the reason I sympathise with Sirius, rather than hate him as viscerally as I hate James, is because Sirius spent 12 years in Azkaban, which means that (even though he had nothing to do with that crime) he ended up paying for his actions. He was a bully and a school tormentor, and he almost killed a fellow student with total impunity, but then the universe paid him back by killing his friends and putting him in prison for 12 years unjustly. He paid his debt. I believe in rehabilitation and paying your debts to society, and Sirius did that, so after that, I can empathise with him even though he was an idiot.

Remus had a lesser debt as he wasn’t the instigator but was complicit, yet he ended up being a pathetic man who had to be lectured by an 18-year-old about how terribly he was behaving, so in a way, he also served his sentence. Peter ended up being the servant to his victim, which is a fantastic irony, so he paid as well.

James Potter didn’t pay. James Potter lived peacefully, died fast without suffering, and didn’t pay. He was a bully and an abuser, and he didn’t pay, and that’s why I cannot feel even the slightest bit of empathy for him. Even Peter seems more likeable because he also served his sentence. But not James. James was the ringleader and the main instigator, and then it was as if nothing happened. So, I’m actually quite glad that at least he didn’t get to see his son grow up—that’s the least he deserved. He could also have watched his wife die—it’s a shame Voldemort killed him first.

I have realized that Mairon applied this own method on himself.

"Identify what your opponent fears the most, and give them a means of mastering it, so that you can master them".

His coping mechanism in Angband was: You fear pain and humiliation? You crave affection? Turn the ugly into a reward and a battle of wills. Enjoy it, even.

He embraced this mindset so deeply that he can no longer even see it as a coping mechanism, and at that point he cannot escape from his own trap.

And I absolutely believed him when he said he had been mistreated, at the latest after the Lúthien debacle. He is not mentioned after that, until he came to bow to Eönwë. He could be in hiding, but I think Morgoth would find him. And he was so unhinged by then that, first lieutenant or not, his anger must have been out of bounds.

I also think he was not particularly enjoying what he did to Celebrimbor. My impression, even before Episode 7, was that he just saw this as something that "needs to be done". Those dead eyes were so scary. And so different from what we've seen when he was forging the sword in Númenor (I think that was our glimpse into the remnant of the real Mairon) or when they were working on the Three.

It's sad, really, Mairon had so much potential and he wasted it on Morgoth, killing himself in the process.

This doesn't mean there is an excuse for what he does. There is no excuse. But I am happy the show gave us a plausible explanation of how he became what he is now. The self-deceived deceiver, the abused one turning into an abuser. It is all very realistic, and the Eregion plot is just brilliant for this.

And Celebrimbor's expression of disbelief at the BS Marion was saying was perfection. Both Charlies deserve awards for their acting.

This is a bit incoherent, but I needed to write it. And I am looking forward to any (and better) analysis others might write, because it's a fascinating subject.

[idrawstuffidk]

Oh ace, oh sweetheart I am so so sorry

Ace reminds me so much of myself from middle school and high school, the anger, the feeling of isolation, the paranoia that everyone is out to get you

It hurts so so badly to feel that way. It’s why Ace was so so important to me. It’s why I loved him so much, because I saw him for who he was, someone who was deeply hurting and lonely and afraid, and he was.

Everyone pushed him to do what he did. Everyone. The only person who didn’t was Levi. Everyone hated him, but the people I blame the most for what Ace did are Veronika, Nico, and Hu.

Hu was so antagonistic towards Ace, so defensive of Nico and so delusional and I hate her so much

Veronika served to scare him further and further and say that he would be the next to die

And Nico, of course, proved her right. They tried to murder him.

What happened to Ace here, no wonder Teruko broke down a bit. It’s exactly what happened to her in the first trial, save for the fact she didn’t kill anyone. They were both almost murdered. They were both traumatized by it, they were both distrusted and hated by everyone during the trial. It’s why she must have wanted him to fight back so much. I hope she comments on that, I hope she thinks about it, I hope she feels something when Ace dies and I hope she is honest about it. I hope he reminds alive in the narrative like Xander and Min, I hope he and Arei both do.

I love Ace, now even more than ever. I cried so hard, I love him. He didn’t deserve this. That being said, I wonder what Teruko’s plan was. She said that the person to kill next would’ve the one who should carry out her plan, since it’s so high risk. I wonder what she will ask Ace to do, I wonder if he will do it.

I want a mini episode for him, I love the artwork of ace, though I do not like the closing argument ending artwork of him, not a fan, he could have looked so much better than that. I love his new sprites too. I love everything about him, really. I think he is one of my all time favourite characters, and he’s going on my “closest to kinning iv’e ever been list” right next to Nikei.

And with all that being said, thank you for reading my ranting and feelings about Ace and why I love him so so so much. And to give an update on how my OC Elenora would be doing: she’s sobbing hysterically. I’ll need to post more about her to make you understand why she is so heart broken

And on that note, I’m going to be writing a fanfiction where Elenora saved Ace because I think she could, it just takes some clever timing. It’s ok, Ace is alive and well with my lovely OC in my happy little universe.

[demelzathemer]

I'm watching the Doom Patrol episode for the first time ever and LOSING MY MIND, why didn't anyone tell me this is GOOD??? It's written by Steve Yockey and it SHOWS because the dialogue is absolutely the same as in the netflix series

Crystal is so catty and Edwin is fed up with people while Charles mediates, they're the same characters just played by different people?? I'm gonna add some shitty screensnaps here to yell about it

Obviously spoilers if you care about that;

Crystal <3 She looks closer to her comicbook self but has the same amount of sass as her netflix self

I swear I'm so normal about this bit of dialogue. Crystal telling Edwin Charles will protect him (with a baseball bat, mind you, they're in the States!) and their responses, I wish I could see Jayden and George act this part.

(I can hear "I'd do it anyway, won't I?" in Jayden's voice... weeps)

Edwin sassing out little girls again??? I lost it with the pose and voice

WEAK FOR THOSE BIG BROWN EYES

(Jayden's voice again. I know you hear it)

He should've been allowed to drape himself over Edwin like this too. Why would Netflix do this to me

"Love this." EDWIN??? He's way too happy that they're gonna smack their client with a shovel.

And CHARLES (pulls it out without anyone asking, he knows what's going to happen next) HANDS IT TO CRYSTAL so she can be the one doing the smacking???

And she's way too eager as well. What is happening here. Though I love how seamlessly they work as a trio now. Even if it's for the purpose of knocking out their unsuspecting client

"The price to open the door to afterlife is pain, and I'm the only one who can do it."

With the door handle being a BABYDOLL HEAD. With HELL FLAHBACKS. What the actual fuck?

I thought the doll spider was netflix original character??

And Charles immediately being "you don't have to do it, we can find another way in" I might be crying

Charles is afraid of water??? That's CANON?? It has to be, nothing has been changed about the characters so far!

Charles (with red-rimmed eyes): "I'm not scared! Just so you know."

Edwin (lying to make Charles feel better): "We know."

They're so in love. But what do you mean with "I'll make sure he's fine"? What are you gonna do, Edwin? Hold his hand on the boat ride? (They didn't show that part, so that's probably what happened.)

They had ONE episode and they still had to make sure that we know Edwin's gay.

I'm OBSESSED with this line and this repressed version of Edwin, I don't have the words right now but I read someone's brilliant analysis about it. (Pls link if you find it)

"I used to think that, too. But it's not 1916 anymore, you know?"

"Well, I'm not like you. But thanks for the concern."

Edwin, oh my god that is so sad. What makes you think you don't deserve happiness? I need to study him under a microscope

...Then STRAIGHT INTO death flashbacks??? They didn't leave anything out, watching this one episode spoils 7 out of 8 episodes of the netflix series?!

"She's good." Edwin appreciates Crystal! I love that they genuinely are a trio here and the boys know about her quirks like they know each other

Also David lore is unchanged too and Crystal bonding with Dorothy was so sweet

...THE NIGHT NURSE IS HERE TOO?? I thought she was a netflix original character too (Cat King, Tragic Mick and Jenny are, at least?)

AND SHE'S RUTH CONNEL??? ALSO WTF JUST HAPPENED

Her character is pretty different alright, and played very differently by the same actress??? And Charles just WENT FOR IT unprovoked?! Do they know about her in this universe, is she like a monster that's actively hunting them down and can be alerted by killing(?) I literally don't know anymore this is crazy

(Edwin was so cute jumping up and cheering lol. A bit jarring how much more he curses here though)

This is actually an insane episode, the trio with their huge amount of lore just drop in in the middle of already established group of characters and their lore and then, they're never seen again after this??

And they had flashbacks to both of their deaths without explaining ANYTHING about what the hell was that. Just five seconds of "being chased and covered in blood", teasing something about their relationship, Crystal dropping her goal of beating her missing memories out of a demon, no conclusion of wtf was "spider-face lady" aka the Night Nurse, etc etc. They needed their own show really badly huh

So netflix hurry up and give us a second season! After seeing this I'm blown away by the execution of Dead Boy Detectives and how Jayden and George really brought the characters to life. I'm so thankful we have that. Their chemistry really is what makes the show.

[aliusfrater]

sam as a character that breaks the 'us vs them' dichotomy of hunting with the conditions of his monstrosity is not only something that is deeply inherent to the narrative's exploration of the familial dynamics that sam disrupts, both metaphorically (in terms of hunting as a metaphor for the cycle of abuse) and literally but it's also something that is deeply internalised by every character that bears witness to the same conditions of sam's monstrosity that the audience does but most importantly both dean and sam himself.

there are a lot of aspects to the way that dean approaches sam's involvement within his own agency/independence as well as The Family Business that mirror or directly correlate with sam's monstrosity and when it's worth condemnation vs not but by far the most interesting aspect of this to me is the fact that there is an inherent separation between the idea of sam, sammy, that is not monstrous but is capable of becoming so and the sam that is monstrous and is capable of corrupting/encroaching on/preying on the sammy isn't/is not yet monstrous. like this idea is mostly explored within dean's idea of sam and monstrosity, either separately or together, but there are a few moments within which sam demonstrates a subconscious awareness of this separation, and subjects himself to it as well, and most of them are within 4.21 and explored as the fact that the Sam—corrupted and monstrous—that Sammy—othered regardless—is to be protected from is ultimately someone that sammy cannot escape. it is in him and evil ('them') and giving into it means freedom or an entire 'acceptance' (the usage of his monstrosity—"maybe there's no escape. after all, how can you run from what's inside you?" / "don't let anyone or anything get in your way."—something he's explicitly expressed since 4.04) of himself.

there will always be an 'us vs them'. it is vital to supernatural. and regardless of the fact that sam exists to break the dichotomy, the dynamic of the structure is one that demands you fit into it and ultimately, i think this manifests within the ideas of sam's monstrosity, more than it does around it, while he perpetually struggles to fit into his role under 'us' so much so that his struggle becomes a vital part of his role. it becomes a non-role that's present in examples of the dynamics of his and dean's relationship as well as the patriarchal structure that i've talked about previously

Mammon: Levi Ya ain't ever gonna get a girl if ya don't know some pick up lines.

Leviathan: Okay so tell me some.

Mammon: First, walk up real smooth, don’t creep up like a pervert, but, like, stroll with a bit of pep in ya step. Then you turn and say, “Ayo ma, lemme get yo numba.” see real smooth and it’s a classic.

Asmodeus (sighing dramatically): Don’t believe what that dumb fuck just told you. If they see you and hear those words come out your mouth they will laugh. So, for you try getting to know them as a friend first.

Mammon: Dude, if he goes in as a friend first, he’s just gonna get friend-zoned! What’s the point?

Leviathan: Hey, stop arguing, I need help here!

Asmodeus: Levi, listen. Just be yourself. If they don’t like you for who you are, they don’t deserve you.

Mammon: Fine, fine. Asmo’s got a point. To pick up girl's you could try going to one of your conventions and hitting on them there. Their obviously nerds so just find one with the same interest as you and boom you get a girlfriend.

Leviathan: Thanks Mam, that actually sounds like a pretty good idea.

Asmodeus: See mammon was it that hard to be nice and think logical.

Mammon (Fake being ill): Yes, omg my head hurts, Asmo hold me.

Asmodeus: No get off!

Leviathan (looking around and sees mc): Hey, Mc!

Mc (smiling): What’s up, Levi?

Leviathan: I wanted to know if you’d like to go to a convention with me?

Mc: Sure! Just tell me the day and text me the details later. I’ve gotta run.

Leviathan: Okay, bye… awesome.

(Mammon and Asmo stare, confused.)

Asmodeus: Levi, how are you supposed to get a girl if you’re taking Mc?

Leviathan: That’s who I wanted to ask this whole time.

Asmodeus and Mammon (in unison): WHAT?!

Mammon: You asshole! You didn’t say that! If I’d known, I wouldn’t have helped you!

Asmodeus: Exactly! What’s wrong with you?!

Levithan: I did say I wanted to ask Mc! But then you start talking about girls and stuff. But I would like to thank you guys for the help.

Asmodeus: Screw you, Levi.

Mammon: Yeah, fuck you!

Leviathan (walking away, smug): I’ll be sure to tell everyone at our wedding how great you two were for getting us together. Thanks, guys. Means a lot!

Asmodeus (fuming): I going to kill him.

Mammon (charging after Levi): Let’s fucking do it! Levi, get back here!!

Additional Propaganda Under the Cut

Additional Propaganda

For Frodo Baggins:

“*cracks knuckles* Okay, everyone. My time has come. Let me tell you all about the beautiful, wonderful treasure that is Frodo Baggins.

He's mischievous, at least at the start of the story. His best friends are Merry and Pippin, and you can't tell me he didn't get into shenanigans with them once in a while. Whether it's repeatedly stealing Farmer Maggot's mushrooms as a kid in the book, or pushing Sam towards Rosie and cackling like a maniac afterwards in the movie, this makes him more relatable and imperfectly human, for lack of a better term, and you can't help but laugh with him.

"He's brave. Oh, he is so brave. Not in the sense that we would usually think- he's terrified the whole way through, and who wouldn't be in his situation? But he lets himself cry, lament his fate, feel whatever he needs to feel, do whatever he needs to do... and he gets up and keeps going anyway. He keeps going even though he's carrying something that's literally killing him, and rarely complains even though he'd be well within his rights to. This quote says it all, really: 'I will take the Ring, though I do not know the way.'

"But most of all? He is so, so terribly kind. He's kind to everyone he meets, even to those who arguably don't deserve it, such as Gollum and Saruman. He loves the people/world he loves so much that he's willing to sacrifice himself to save them without any hesitation or thanks. And it's his kindness towards Gollum that actually ends up saving the day in the end! How could anyone not love him?”

I think out of the two, it would make sense for Till to live when trying to decide which route would be more gratifying.

Till and Luka are essentially paralleling each other at the moment, the abuse the both of them having gone through being the most extreme that we've seen.

The way they react to this is essentially holding another person on a pedestal, loving them for what they represent.

In Till's case, he found Mizi to be this human embodiment of genuine, kind and gentle love. She loved her because she was a loving person. She was the opposite of his treatment with the guardians.

In Luka's case, he loved Hyuna cause she represented freedom. He learned to find freedom in singing from her, and found her reckless and free behaviour to a secure.

They both got to a point where their love borderlined on obsessive, but it was much more extreme and unkind in Luka's case, where he killed Hyuna's brother just to ensure her attention remained on him. Till's obsession involved having a narrow sight, risking his own safety again and again for the sake of Mizi, and/or her attention.

Luka is not a good person. He is a hurt person who didn't deserve what he went through, but he is not a good person. He hurts people to be able to feel something. He is desperate for control over his own life and tha comes at the detriment of people who don't deserve it.

If Luka won, and lived, he would either be rescued by Hyuna and Mizi, which wouldn't make sense AND lead to an uneasy group. Mizi and Hyuna were both hurt by the guy, and there is a low chance that even if they saved , they would try to get along with him. On the other hand, he might just get taken back under the care of his guardian and be forced to live the harsh human pet life again. These both feel sour to me, and doesn't lead to any ending that would satisfy what the story wants to portray.

Till living in the end, however, would make sense. Hyuna shows signs of being able to get along with him, and Mizi is someonehe already cares about deeply. There's also the factor that he would be able to let go of his crush, and they both can move on from their past loves, and find solace in their friendship.

If he were to live, it would feel alot more deserved, for what he went through.

...also, till is my favourite so- [gunshot]

played touchstarved demo 🥳 here's my oc callahan nolan

ok here's the barebones info: callahan has a curse where whoever he touches goes mad. when callahan was young he was taken in by the exiled mage with another oc (that I haven't fleshed out yet) and when they find out that the mage is actually just going to make them both into test subjects they plot together to kill the mage.

when they do so successfully, callahan takes over all of the mage's encyclopedias and scholarly resources and becomes a scholar on magic and the like (+ what the mage had taught him before) to try to find a way to cure himself.

he and the other oc fall in love, but later he accidentally touches them and makes them go mad, and he ends up killing them to protect himself. this renders him insanely suicidal and all the more self-loathing as he's destroyed the one person he's known and loved in his entire life…

he's desperate to find any cure for his curse by any means, but is also very reckless with his life because he feels he no longer has real meaning in his life anymore. he's desperate to find a curse but also, if he was met with a situation where he'd be in danger, he'd readily accept death.

he's scruffy and sarcastic and quite intelligent but he's also kind of all over the place. and Pathetic. Sopping wet dog found in a cardboard box. he's physically not very strong but he's very witty and smart!

in my brain he has a smooth british accent and hes a tall lanky ass cunt. he's very smooth and (mostly) level headed on the outside, but there's a lot of fear and self-hatred and frustration simmering on the inside.

he's like. late 20s-early/mid ish 30s to me. anyways he goes to the city eridia to go to the senobium and see if he can find a way to cure himself of his curse. he honestly doesn't think he is deserving of life but he keeps living and searching for a cure bc it's what his past lover would have wanted T__T

Eurylochus Analysis

@nandysparadox

First things first, it is important to note that despite how I talk about him, Eurylochus is not just a sopping wet cat of a man. He also can kill you. He didn't die at war for a reason. (RIP Eury, you deserved a better captain).

I will be reblogging this by saga release, mainly because I'm a bit scared I'll break the max tumblr post length haha.

The Troy Saga

The Horse and the Infant

We learn that the soldiers in the horse are like brothers as Ody opens up with: "Alright my brothers listen closely..."

They've also been at war for 10 years, seeing their comrades die. While this isn't exactly Eury content yet it's important to note because Eurylochus has been at war, he's seen his friends die, he's seen tragedies and terrors. This shapes his actions. "Ten years of war they killed us slowly, but now we'll be the ones who slay..."

I will come back to these lines in the future but they are so important to me actually "Do what I say and you'll see them again." "Yes Sir!"

We learn pretty early on that Odysseus is living and fighting for his family. And in the beginning it definitely seems like he's trying to get the crew home. But his priority is his family. Eury's is the crew. Will get to this in a bit.

Just A Man:

Really this is just a precursor to everything that happens. But uh. I felt like I should still include it in this for some reason. Might come back to edit this portion later

Full Speed Ahead

Finally! I get to talk about Eurylochus! First thing to note, he is echoed by the crew, showing that he's closer to them than the captain is. Odysseus is only added onto by the crew, mind you, he's not copied by the crew until later in the song. Also, it's the crew that introduces Eurylochus, and possible the only time the crew introduces someone. "Eurylochus." "600 men." "600 men."

Odysseus may give orders, but the crew is only loyal to him so long as Eurylochus is. And Eury is oh, so loyal, because Odysseus cares about them. He's not just ordering them around, he's trying to keep them alive. The crew is anxious for Odysseus's return, because Eurylochus is.

Open Arms

This feels really similar to Just A Man to me. Although it does serve to show that Polites is closer to his captain than most of the crew.

Warrior of the Mind

Again very similar to Open Arms and Just A Man. We're learning more about Odysseus here than Eurylochus. Which is fine, Ody's the main character. But it does mean there's not much to put here dhdh

Troy Saga Conclusion:

From the Troy Saga we know that Eurylochus is the voice of the crew and is trusted by them. While we could currently say that they trust him more than Ody based on the clues here, but I think that becomes really obvious in later sagas.

I will be back tomorrow to add the Cyclops Saga analysis to this :3
