Papa’s playlists - music headcanons

Sometimes when I listen to music I mentally associate what I’m listening to the Papas, so I thought it would have been fun to imagine a 10 songs playlist for/of each Papa. I have chosen the songs by their personalities, the kind of music they have done and the general vibes I get when I listen to the songs.

Primo:

I see him sitting on his couch by the fire, immersed in his voluminous, rich vestments. He can listen to the heaviest doom metal tune without moving an inch of his body, fully immersed in understanding the lyrics, but 70s rock always brings back his old memories of when he used to throw small parties in his chamber whenever the Beatles or his favorite bands released a new LP.

The Beatles - Come together 

Black Sabbath - Iron Man

Mayhem - Freezing moon

The Rolling Stones - Start me up

Candlemass - Bewitched

Bathory - A fine day to die 

Mercyful fate - Evil

The animals - House of the rising sun

Slayer - Seasons in the Abyss

Diamond Head - Am I Evil?

Secondo:

He has two sides: the old-school metalhead and the devoted enthusiast of good old symphonic music. He prepares himself a cigar and settles at his desk, embracing the darkness like the nocturnal creature he is, to work on papers or perhaps write some lyrics inspired by his favorite arias. In his playlist, you can always find something classy followed by something extremely heavy.

Led Zeppelin - Kashmir

Slayer - South of Heaven

Venom - Don’t burn the witch

Giuseppe Verdi - Dies Irae/Tuba Mirum

Deep Purple - Perfect Strangers

King Diamond - The family ghost

The Doors - Riders on the storm

Guns and Roses - Coma

Bobby Vinton - Blue velvet 

Antonio Vivaldi - Four Seasons

Terzo:

Ah, Terzo. Whether he's completing his nighttime skincare routine, getting dressed for a mass, preparing for a date, or simply relaxing in his chambers with a good wine, he always has a record playing in the background. He's not a headbanger, but he likes to keep the tempo with his hands. He taps his fingers on his thigh to match the drum tempo of most rhythmic songs or moves his hands softly to the sound of the mellower ones, like when he listens to "Barcelona," adjusting his hand movements based on the virtuosity of the voices.

Candlemass - Well of Souls

The struts - Kiss this

Metallica - Until it sleeps

Metallica - For whom the bell tolls

Kreator - People of the lie

Freddie Mercury feat Montserrat Caballe - Barcelona

David Bowie - Starman

Pentagram - Sign of the wolf

Sepoltura - Dead embryonic cells

Mercyful fate - Witches dance 

Copia:

I can totally picture Copia putting on something groovy like "Stuck In The Middle With You" while attempting to cook something, swaying his hips to the rhythm and inevitably either burning whatever is in the pan or creating a mess on the counter by dropping bottles and food.

Alice Cooper - Poison

Iron Maiden - Run to the hills

Steppenwolf - Born to be wild

Dead or Alive - You spin me round 

Black Sabbath - Paranoid

Judas Priest - Painkiller

The Rolling Stones - Sympathy for the devil

Stealers wheel - Stuck in the middle with you 

The Darkness - Love is only a feeling

Bon Jovi - You give love a bad name

Nihil:

An old-school rocker. He would pick you up in his car with Led Zeppelin playing at full volume, take you to a bar where he puts on your favorite song in the jukebox, and by the time you come back from the toilet, he's kissing some random girl right at the bar counter. He would later apologize, claiming he was just drunk and thought that was you… a red flag you'll ignore.

The Doors - Touch me

Led Zeppelin - Whole lotta love

Elton John - Tiny dancer

Ozzy Osburne - Crazy train

Deep Purple - Child in time 

Deep Purple - Hush

Jefferson airplane - White rabbit

Elvis Presley - Suspicious minds

The Rolling Stones -  Paint it black

The Beatles - Helter Skelter

the chemistry read

this is a snippet from the famous dc!au that started with The Greatest Hits [read here] you don’t have to read it but a lot of things would make sense if you do! hope you enjoy.

Admittedly, you shouldn't give into peer pressure. It does nothing for you in the end except show others that you can be bent to their will. But that will being your fan base is a whole other thing.

You had to prove to your fans that you could deliver right?

"What are you planning over there?" Jason asks.

You look up from your phone. He's sprawled out on the lounge seat by your side. God he looks good but you've told him that when he woke up this morning and when he was making your breakfast. His ego could go an hour before being inflated again.

So you shrug your shoulders.

"A couple of people are saying we don't have chemistry." you answer.

You watch in real time as Jason gasps and gets up from his seat. He walks over to you with a dumbfounded look on his face. There he stands in front of you with his hands on his hips.

"We? Us? You and me? The co-stars of a big blockbuster romcom? That we?" he fires off.

The laugh works its way up from your belly to your chest.

"Yes, us. I was just trying to figure out a way to prove them wrong." you explain.

Jason bends down and the action confuses you. Until his knees hit the end of your lounge chair and he crawls his way up to you. For the love of everything holy you know the two of you haven't gotten intimate yet but you can just tell he is a master of foreplay.

As he hovers above you know you don't know what to think. You can't think. There are no words in your head except for Jason's name.

"I think I've got something." he says.

It's barely above a whisper. You don't know why. The two of you aren't in the country right now. An impromptu weekend vacation to a beach house down the coast. It's just you two here.

You go to speak but stop yourself when Jason grabs your phone. He holds it out for you to put in your passcode, even shuts his eyes when you do it. Then he takes your phone and sets up the camera to video mode.

"Chemistry read. Right here, right now." he speaks.

You look at him incredulously. A short laugh tumbles out first and then you realize that he's not joking. You smile again and set your phone against the chair side table. The camera catches you and Jason from your chests up.

"What script are we working with here? I'd like to be professional about this Mr.Todd." you ask.

"All of them. We're doing best romcom lines ever." Jason answers.

You reach over to your phone and hit record. Jason takes this time to roll back his shoulders and crack his neck. It makes you yelp and cackle like an animal. He has to reel you back into the moment.

He goes first. And boy does he make a show of it. He looks at you intensely It's the way his eyes aren't just one color that throw you off focus. Sure you couldn't think about lines before but now? Definitely not.

"You have bewitched me, body and soul, and I love, I love, I love you. I never wish to be parted from you from this day on." he repeats.

Your eyes widen and your hand clamps over your mouth. Jason laughs right along with you. You clear your throat and try to calm yourself.

Then you lean right in. You and Jason just a foot away from each other. You see the smirk on his face.

“Just shut up! Here... I wanna marry you because you're the first person I wanna look at when I wake up in the morning, and the only one I wanna kiss goodnight. Because the first time that I saw these hands, I couldn't imagine not being able to hold them. But mainly, when you love someone as much as I love you, getting married is the only thing left to do. So, will you, um, marry me?” you spurt out.

Jason lets out a gasp. You dust your shoulder off with a bashful grin on your lips. Nodding you head to your choice of rom com.

Then Jason leans in so that your noses are touching. You can't help the way you take in a huge breath. Or the small noise you make that Jason is eating up by the way.

“You jump, I jump, remember? I can’t turn away without knowing you’ll be alright.” he says.

Titanic? No way!

You have to one-up him. You can't let him win this hypothetical challenge you've set for yourselves. No way. Realistically he reads English lit so he's going to have an advantage. But you would be damned if you went down without a fight.

“You were my new dream.” you reply.

“You complete me.” he shots back.

“You had me at hello.” you respond.

Jason lets out a warm breath and you feel it against your face. Did he just let you win? You cock your head to the side. But sure enough Jason cradles the side of your head with his hand, his thumb rubbing back and forth on your cheek.

Yeah he let you win. But you think back to the way he crawled up the chair to you and you think to yourself that you have already won twice. Three times if you count the fact you woke up next to him this morning.

Why not let him get a little something for his troubles?

You turn your face inward to his open palm and place a kiss to it. As you do your eyes never leave his. His eyes go wide and then soft, a downturned smile on his lips.

"Think we need to shut the camera off now."

“Why?”

“I mean I’m okay with PDA but some things are meant to be private.” he explains.

“Some things like what Jay?” you ask.

You know good and well what he’s talking about. You actually love teasing him. It’s the better part of each day you spend with him. The way he reacts.

"Things like my tongue in your mouth.” he says with a smile.

You nod your head along, “Get the camera pretty boy.”

His eyes do the thing again and he’s reaching over for the phone to hit stop.

“Yup. Got it. Got it. Getting it.” He says stretching over you and fumbling with the phone.

He hits stop and record a bunch of times. You know you’re going to find several two second videos of you and him sitting like this. You don’t care though.

All you can think about is savoring this moment. He looks hot to the touch with the sun behind him. His sunglasses in his hair. Shirtless in tropical designed swim trunks that you don’t think anyone could pull off but him.

And he is all yours.

La Mortification d'un Insomniaque

The Mortification of an Insomniac

Original Monologue by Jean Clamence (me)

I cannot sleep. Why sleep, anyway? The night holds wonders far more splendid than the day. I love him with all my heart. I can inhale stars, walk along icy quarters, lay on rigid concrete, and spin around in the pitch black, the void which embraces me and engulfs me into a sweet hysteria of turmoil. I will bang my head against my bed frame and my surroundings will swirl dizzily, laugh about it, then go outside, bump into streetlights with an eclipse of moths circling above my head that yearning for the light. From a stale, flaccid, pink worm, I twist and turn among the lepidoptera, growing their wings and taking flight, possessing their bewitching colour and gaining their curious allure. When day breaks, I will find my body broken beyond repair, that my metamorphosis has come undone and I've regressed to an ugly worm, my soul torn apart with each bit of purity dismembered, and my mind lost in the vastness of a region squashed between heaven and hell. I become aware of the meek fragility of my existence---in matter and in memory---and along with it the utter meaninglessness of everything. Hours will pass, twilight will start, and I will retreat into the night. Then, crimson puddles may dry up on my teeth, turn them brown, rot them to excess, fine dust, and my eyes may swell with tears, begging for the end, spread wide with eyelids parallel under the shade of fifty strands of fried hair, but I don't notice them. I cannot move for myself, but for the thought that seduces me and takes advantage of my blindness: 'What is so hazardous about a tiny cut, a small scratch, a little wound with a few miniscule drops of blood? There is no distinction between an arm lost and a healing bruise. Both will return to me a hundred times over to collect me at my doorstep, abrupt as the appearance of goodness and love, as simply developed and intricate as the act of sin, on an evening when silver skies weep and too, shout with brute force. Both will end me, and in the end my ending is nothingness, for the end is nothingness because the world is nothingness after days abundant of sin and beauty and will'. And so I continue, but the problem that troubles the lover of the after hours is that he is awake, he exists in the present as undoubtedly as the cold, hard wall which he peppers with rims of ash from the cigarette bums he presses onto it. More times than not it will occur to him: the thought that the promise of night is forfeit, for there is a plausibility in the possibility that it will only grant the ephemeral thought of eternal slumber, not the eternal slumber of ephemeral thought, and instead will lock him away, conscious of the reality that he has taken millions of breaths since death was promised to him. When he has alas had enough, all the peer insomniacs scream in unison with him, once again, after the vigor of life, when everybody has dozed off and children have been tucked in their beds with the comforting plumpness of soft, silk pillows and stuffed animals. And they cannot stop, for where else could they grieve but the night? Where else should they grieve but the night? The day cannot free any prisoners. Distraught, it is fully aware of the truth that it is also a problem.

I am striding along elliptically around the base of an oak tree, waiting for day: waiting for it's demands, it's responsibilities, it's shedding light on the actuality of being, the wild unpredictability of a day, an hour, a minute, a second, a glimpse. I know I do not want it now, but I wait for it. The time will come when I kneel, assure it's superiority and beg, for I will feel and think 'I need it'. I frown at the slight appearance of the matter in my consciousness, at it's reoccurring routine, the never-ending pattern of night and day. I can never shut my eyes in the night, nor rest with my eyes open in day; I want to change the world at midnight, but four hours later dawn will come and everything, motionless and locomotive, will show me the short extent to which I can carry out my superficial aspirations. They are different, but they become one in the common torture they bring to me. They merged into one behind my back, under my ears, and I hitherto have been completely clueless; C'est la vie. And la vie est une maladie, a  malady that hides itself in plain sight and sense. It is a killer with excellent skill and strategy, being able to run on it's tip-toes and not make a sound. Nobody died that has not lived. Joy is living. This endless suffering is living. Attachment is living. War is living. It will kill us all because of the pointlessness of it all. I know what I must do now. I pray for neither night nor day. (It's like being given only two horrid politicians to vote for, and asking 'Which one of them has committed a lighter crime: the perpetrator of the genocide of children or the one who kills a child every month? Not only is the question foolish nonsense adorned with perfume made from cow dung, I deserve better.) I only await eternal slumber with no consciousness, only a comfortable hopelessness. Only then---when my remains will most likely lie in a coffin or in a marble jar---can I be free.

[soul-dwelling]

Do you think there is any subtext in Soul Eater that isn't obvious and got lost by most readers?

I’m not sure. 

I mean, there are those references that definitely escaped me early on. 

I mean, the witch references I missed the first few times watching: Blair referencing The Blair Witch Project; that witch Samantha alluding to Bewitched (which itself was an influence on the magical witch genre in Japan); Angela Leon is a chameleon-theme witch. 

And the musical name references went over my head. 

A lot of the names can elude us, granted, whether due to language barriers or missing out on puns and allusions. For example, Kid’s name, when spelled out in capital letters in English, are all symmetrical. And as Black Star himself explains later in the manga, you can read his name as much as meaning “dark world,” hence his feeling of isolation and when he refers to Tsubaki as being like the bright stars. And Maka’s name being an anagram of for the Japanese for “scythe.” 

And there is the role Rasputin had and hence why we see Maka fighting him. Quoting from the Soul Eater Wiki (https://souleater.fandom.com/wiki/Rasputin): “[T]he Bolsheviks tried to kill Rasputin in several ways including being shot several times. Rasputin mentioned that bullets [were] ineffective against him.” 

In fact, those first chapters have a ton of those references. It’s why you have so many characters associated with death early on. Rasputin is an early opponent. And before him, Anubis, an Egyptian god of Death, fights Kid. And plague doctors were around death so much, so you have Excalibur looking like a plague doctor. 

I’m not sure about subtext that readers may miss. 

Maybe you can read into Crona’s gender identity in relation to how Medusa treats them as an “it,” but some of that I think owes in part to English speakers in the US getting a bonus interpretation by the translation, e.g. Crona has been treated as just a thing, their time away from Medusa allows them to determine their own identity, the manga and anime at varying times have Medusa refer to Crona as an “it” as much as a convention of translating pronouns as it is translators emphasizing how Medusa indeed sees Crona as a tool or a specimen. 

I’m not sure how much to read into Stein from the perspective of body augmentation. You have him tightening the bolt through his head as the “loose screw” visual metaphor for his sanity. 

I’m still not quite sure what the anime was getting at during Stein’s hallucination, with Spirit as a dog (that he’s Lord Death’s lapdog?) and Marie’s henohenomoheji face (that she is just another faceless victim of Stein’s screw ups?).

[like-wuatafauq]

Idk if you’re looking for a girlfriend now, but if you are what’s your type?

Hello 👋 yea I actually am! :) I'll probably be very slow with it if I just meet someone bcuz it takes me a while before I develop crushes. Also this is a long post i know!!!

But my type is someone who's gonna be long term that leads to marriage, I really can't be with someone who won't commit to me or likes multiple ppl. (BTW I'm not trying to sound like I would shit on anybody who doesn't follow any of this that I list I just look for this personally bcuz I know otherwise it won't work out)

Distance: I can do long distance because I'm willing to travel, of course I'd prefer near me but I'm just saying I'd be willing to do it for someone.

Appearance: high femme(doesn't matter goth,cottagecore other) she doesn't have to be high femme all the time but I do prefer someone more feminine than me. I really like when a girl has long nails I don't care if it's natural nails or not I just really like how they look. I like when girls have long hair and style it especially as pigtails that shit makes me fold so easily. I don't necessarily have a type when it comes to other physical feautures but i would prefer that they look nothing like my ex who traumatized me because that would be super weird for me(she had very basic white girl features, I'm not trying to be mean to white girls she just genuinely did)

I'm not very picky on skin color or weight :) I'm Demisexual so I have to trust you and know you for a bit before I get intimate and find you sexually/physically attractive.

Age: preferably 22-27

Height: not taller than me because I like being tall and how it feels to be hugged by someone shorter than me. I'm 5'10 so I'd say 5'8 is the tallest I'd date.

Religion: I don't necessarily care but I'd prefer for her to atleast be spiritual, witchy or believe in something. It felt very empty not connecting spiritually with someone I don't think I could do that ever again. (I'm trying to be bewitched body and soul)

Personality: Really nice and caring :) She's gotta be funny and weird like me though lol into cosplay and anime so that I can cosplay the whole family ^-^ which means at least one kid but I've always wanted 3 with the option of my wife wanting more (I'd be super okay with that). Super affectionate. Super honest and understanding. I value honesty and loyalty heavilyyyy. She can be unhinged and if she's got any mental health issues I'm okay as long as they communicate with me and don't use it to abuse,cheat, and basically hurt me. Like they gotta also be working on themselves because I know my brain is super fuckked but apologies and taking accountability things like that matter to me so much so i make sure i do it too especially if you point out something to me that means a lot because i wanna be able to work on it so i can treat my partner better and stay together:) I really value someone who can support me and me towards them.

Oh Also!! Plz god a bottom. Plz mainly a bottom or like a switch is fine but with a bottom preference. I just really really really really ah let's just say I'm very hungry and ready to eat all the time. I prefer submissive bottom or dominant bottom is fine or if you are gonna top me plz don't be dominant,like service top is fine(but its very rare for me to bottom). I looove being a service top or dom top just topping in general.

On another note on sexuality: I use to not care but after my ex I feel like I'd be waaaaay too hurt or insecure or anxious to date someone who is not a lesbian, so I'm trying les4les not because I think any other sexuality is bad but because i know for a fact I would need an annoying amount of reassurance to not wanna break down or panic. And I don't want to put someone through that. I would have to really realllyyyy trust the person, and even then, I fear I would burden them. Sorry yall my ex fucked me up big time.

But basically: long-term monogamous, very affectionate healthy obsessive possessive femme.

[Other random notes: when it comes to finances work etc. I like providing but I would never get in the way of a woman wanting to succeed in fact I would support her in anyway whether is work partner or at house work or like if she wanted to just be a housewife that's fine I'll work harder to provide. People don't realize taking care of house work is just as important as a partner providing!! I try to be as specific as possible because i wouldn't want to lead someone on]

💖Ooooo bonus if she loves to bake and cook so I can get little treats when I get back from the gym!💖

[ofallthingsnasty]

Sending you some questions myself! If you talked about this already I’m sorry my memory really is that of a goldfish.

1) Favorite children’s movie? If you don’t have one just and animated movie in general is fine!

2) Do you have a place in the world you’d always like to go to?

My favorite children's movie is definitely a tough question 😆 As a kid, I had many different faves - from cartoon to life action but now as an adult, it's the Steven Universe movie, haha. It got me into SU when I was 22 and it's so beautiful, from the songs to the animations to the sound and character design. My second favorite would probably be Frozen (hahaha terrible I know) - it came out when I was 16 and I had the fattest crush on Elsa ansnsnks. Good old times.

As for a place, I'm a basic European bitch (but a broke one, so travel is really special to me) and I gotta say that'd be Mont-Saint-Michel. I've been to France countless times (neighboring country, had French in school etc) but the country is really pretty. Here a pic of the place I wanna see:

I also wanna go to Switzerland (which isn't unrealistic, neighboring country yay!!) and the US (which is unrealistic in the next 5 years or so bc of the price lol) because I have a lowkey morbid fascination with American food lmao. The ten million different fast food joints that country has have bewitched me body and soul and I want to try them... Also the US is very pretty, from a nature sightseeing standpoint.

Thanks for the questions!! This was fun haha

[cowboyhorsegirl]

Cybersix character ranking?

this is simultaneously so much easier and so much harder than trying to rank the succ characters bc there are so many characters in cybersix who I genuinely love and my ranking is literally just all my faves are number 1 and everyone else is number 2 😅

But if we're being thorough about it (and by thorough I mean just the characters I remember off the top of my head), then I think my ranking would go something like this:

Tie between Adrian/Cybersix & Lucas: I simply can't choose between them, I tried and I can't. They're both so good and such wonderful characters and I love them and their love for each other with all my heart <3

Dataseven: the existence of Dataseven appeals very specifically to the part of me who gravitated towards all the animated cat characters I grew up with and whose first favorite animal were snow leopards. Also he's cool as fuck with a great backstory. The realest catboy.

Lori: controversial take perhaps?? That Lori is so high on this list?? But idk I like that Lori is the person who Cybersix reveals their identities to, I like that Lori instantly hops on that motorcycle with Lucas and goes towards the bomb in an effort to try and help and/or save Cybersix without thinking twice about it, and I personally like that Lori has a crush on Adrian. Which is not to say that I like Lori x Adrian as a ship, but it feels very real for what reads to me as a closeted/repressed/unaware queer kid to have a crush on the most androgynous teacher in school you know? I think there's probably more depth to Lori than the show had time to explore.

Griselda: episode 12 ahhhhhhh!!!!! First of all I just have to say that my feelings towards seeing Griselda & Cybersix on screen together are exactly the same as my feelings towards Madame Hydra & Black Widow in EMH. Two extraordinarily pretty women who represent opposing ideals having a power struggle!! I mean not to be a lesbian but— Aside from that though, I think it's so interesting how Griselda seems to be an upgraded version of Cybersix, and one of the only villains who actually stood a real chance at beating him. I would have loved to see more of her character, more interaction between her and Cybersix. It's heartbreaking that the moment she seems to decide that Cybersix needs to be the one that lives, she resigns herself to being the one who has to die to allow that to happen. It makes sense to me why Griselda would think that in the narrative as I imagine that binary response may have been a holdover of her conditioning at the hands of Von Reichter. She's been ordered to capture Cybersix by any means necessary, so even though she's now realized that Cybersix is not her real enemy, she still can't let go of the notion that in order for one of them to live, the other must fail. Personally, I don't think she's really dead (and I also don't think either Cybersix or Dataseven are dead either) so I hope they all find each other post-canon and become a bad bitch triumvirate. My only gripe with Griselda is why is she named that?? Why isn't she also called a Cyber or a Data or some other type of Technocreature? Why does she get a real name??

Elaine: hot werewolf lady, what's not to love? I think Elaine should get to join the bad bitch triumvirate too (maybe the triumvirate is cybersix, griselda, and elaine instead of cybersix, dataseven, and griselda who knows we're just having fun with it). I like that she both bewitches Lucas body & soul and also that she indirectly turns him into a werewolf, like what can't she do! She has the range. I like her hair. I am a big fan and honestly I do support women's wrongs xoxo

Terra: 😢😢 I'm very sad about his story. Unlike Griselda, Cybersix, or Dataseven, I really do believe that Terra is dead. I love how many villains are redeemed because of Cybersix's kindness and compassion, and I believe Terra was the first of those villains (save for Dataseven who I think is in a category of his own because of his & Cybersix's shared history). And the way Terra was animated just lent to such an expressive character that made his death hit even harder, even though he isn't as human in his appearance. In any case, I'm pretty sure that he and Griselda are the only villains to sacrifice themselves for Cybersix, and the show did a good job of conveying the emotional weight of those moments for both Terra & Griselda.

Julian: I didn't mean for julian to be this far down on the list lmao i just kept forgetting to add him and now he's down here. But tbh he belongs in this spot, I like him but I'm just not as interested in him as a character. I do really like that his sleight of hand recurs throughout the series in the form of multiple different skills like his ability to pickpocket, do card tricks, and make string figures. I think that's a cool bit of character building and I love how they all consistently incorporate his dexterity. I'm very concerned about his living situation. I guess he's just a little subway boy now?? I also like that it seems as though Dataseven is his main pseudo parent figure lmao (if anything Cybersix is the cool aunt to Dataseven's exasperated guardian wrt Julian)

Yashimoto & Ikiko: ugh these two... Aside from the racist caricatures, I really did like these characters. I respect how Yashimoto doesn't take Jose's case at first and that he doesn't fold to Jose's initial intimidation tactics. It's endearing how much Yashimoto cares for his little sister and it's fun to see how clever he is when he realizes he can work together with Cybersix to get Ikiko & Julian back instead of carrying out Jose's wishes completely. Plus I think Ikiko is cute! I like her friendship with Julian!

Enrique: he's a cop (boo!) but Julian needs all the help he can get so I'm glad there's another adult around who cares about him (yay!). Anyone else think it was weird how Jose (& I assume by extension Von Reichter) both brainwashed Enrique and the other cops and gave them military-grade weapons, but after Enrique shed the mind control he still held on to the military-grade weapons? Just me? There's a not insignificant chance that I'm overthinking it.

The Tentacle Creatures: I don't actually feel any strong type of way about the various tentacle creatures in Cybersix, but if I had a nickel for every tentacle monster in this kids show, then I'd have two nickels, which isn't a lot but it's weird that it happened twice in the space of only 13 episodes🤨🤨🤨

The Fixed Ideas: cool name, cool concept. I feel as though these guys were probably more redeemable than Cybersix gave them credit for lol. I especially kind of like the Fixed Ideas as maybe a commentary on the way fascism packages up complex societal issues as an oversimplified and uncomplicated 'us vs. them' framework, which makes it easier to get people to follow along with your ideology (read: easier to follow your orders 👀). I'm not entirely sure if that metaphor was intentional in either the comics or the tv show (I'm not even sure if the Fixed Ideas were in the comics at all though I imagine they probably didn't make them up solely for the tv show), but that's how I read them and I think it's an interesting way to view those characters.

The Eye: I did not like the eye, I do not like eye gore, I am very squeamish about eyes, overall I was not having a great time in the episode (but that's more a me problem than a That Episode problem). I will give props to the episode for that one moment where Cybersix makes the eye hypnotize itself by holding a mirror up to it because that was both a cool lil moment of creative on-the-fly problem solving on her part and also bc it was animated exceptionally well. And I'm giving myself a pat on the back because I saw the scene of Lucas demonstrating how liquid nitrogen works and immediately was like 'Oh I know exactly where this episode is going' (yes I know it's a kids show but I still felt Very Smart for picking up what they were so obviously putting down).

Jose & Von Reichter: literally Nazis. Also Jose is annoying.
