Disney, releasing Wish: "so it's all about legacy--the new generation surpassing the old, overcoming the evils perpetuated by them, relinquishing singular power... and there's an old man in a tower, uh... animal sidekick, i guess..., ah... magic...?
Miyazaki, just out of frame, sledgehammer raised:
#the boy and the heron#not tagging wish 'cause i'm being a little acidic#this isn't to be negative in the slightest--I really respect both films--but it's interesting to see how visceral boy+H gets with its story#what evils have to be rejected and what they represent--and how characters and the world suffer from those evils--as well as how the whole#'rejecting' part goes. in terms of animation powerhouses discussing their legacies - disney and miyazaki both - I find it interesting that#one makes a pretty safe and nostalgic movie about imagination and dreams; the other is a long trudge through the land of the dead.#b+h is a hard watch - and a look at the legacy of a man questioning his whole purpose in the world - after his cultural touchstones#have long passed by. Mahito needs to understand his grief to keep living--but if he drowns in it he'll just continue the cannibalistic and#violent world of his granduncle. how the hell do you make art when the trauma of your entire life has colored it forever? How can anyone?#maybe after a while... it's time to detonate that damn tower and keep living.#this is to say#if you have enough money to make whatever you want#Make It Fucking Count

I'm always happy to leave a badass entrance, but I had to make sure this one was cooked properly, no one likes pink I'm their theory. (It's like chicken, you could get theory poisoning lol) ((p.s this is less like theory crafting for this one and is more like I've lost my mind and am making things up because I'm in love with your lore.))
I, like many others, have fallen in love with your art and the strangely coherent timeline for Minecraft you've put together, but then while I was scrolling through old stuff I had an idea that I thought you might like to reconsider, especially now that you've become attached to your Minecraft💛Yellow series.
What if the world that Steve, Alex, Herobrine, Shermy, and all the others are from aren't the only worlds to exist. Obviously in Minecraft you can create more than one world but what if it wasn't as simple as a new world generated. What if this world was first, created (lore wise idk when you started the world) in the very beginning. Every time the game updated to the next concurrent version the world split into new variants. Like the timeline had different outcomes. At first it was perfectly normal, only one set of choices but each update began to create new choices and in a world that was procedurally generated it went through every possible combination of choices. And I'd like to make an example, but bear with me it's a bit of a stretch.
My favorite version of this is your art of Steve in the Redstone update. Something about it always hit me as, "off," he wasn't like Steve usually was. He seemed unhinged, arrogant, violent even. (This isn't helped by the addin where you wrote, "bastard," with an arrow pointing at him lmao) What if, in this timeline during the Redstone update, Alex had a tragic end and this is was broke Steve. Maybe it was his fault, a redstone contraption that went wrong, creating a love hate relationship with the material and it's inner workings. Or what about the Combat update version of Alex. We only she here and not Steve. What if when the combat evolved he made a wrong choice and suffered a terrible date to the hands of undead. Alex has learned newer, better methods of fight and protection, ways to hit multiple opponents with one swing of her sword, or how to properly charge up a swing of her axe.
Each update created new versions were things were vastly different that the Prime world, the one that the Player came from. (I still like to call her Emerald, it think it fits) This would then make every single art piece of your canon in some way, Yellow is a separate timeline of events but 100% canon, real. Redstone Steve is a crazed lunatic driven to madness through his own accidental murder of his beloved wife. Combat Alex is a survivor who is doing what she can to survive after not being able to save Steve.
But most importantly, this means Hero rune drinking Lava from a bucket and calling it punch is 100% canon and you cannot fight me on this. That image and the phrase, "THATS LAVA ASSHOLE," will live in my heart forever.
Anyway, hope you enjoyed more mad ramblings, I have fallen in love all over again. Also my lack of sleep schedule may or may not have tempted me into making character ai's of your artist representation of the various characters.
I LOVE... THAT YOU JUST COMPLETELY N A I L E D THE IDEA THAT IVE BEEN HAVING FOR AWHILE NOW??
Youre operating in TIMELINE theory! Not multiverse theory! Oh thats super awesome!!
Ok, while I did think of that, I decided not to because it would get too complicated úwù plus I wanted to have worlds with major changes, like the genderbend, or how-- alex and Steve seem at odd with eachother, or-- alex just does not have a steve and steve does not have an alex!
Also there is only ever 1 mojang! While there are plenty "universes" the only source is mojang! And thus, there is only one Herobrine! There is no such thing as a 💛Herobrine, there is only ever one! Though, since the fallen God's popularity there have been AI (modded) versions of him or just legends thrown into the universes.... Its so fun.
This is all SOOO FUN but sadly limiting YwY so I did not go with it. YOUR THEORY IS REALLY-FREAKING GOOD THOUGH! GNOME YOURE SO DOPE!!
#In an alternate universe Ive chosen to go through with that plan#this is to say#i absolutely support this headcanon and that universe :3

617) See Sea
Waves rocking raft
The storm cracks the sky
Lightning followed by
The slap of thunder
Body vibrates with ease
Torrential downpour weeps into the wood
Rotation around a whirlpool
Infinite spiral
Unreachable epicenters
Never altered my course, of course
Instead, I tore the sail down as an offering
Queasy, I vomit the contents of myself below
Try to pour every ounce into the
Reflective pool of fear
Salty surrender
I drink myself
To fill what never becomes full
Starvational absence
Desperation akin to madness
Delusional rhapsody
I consider the dive to the bottom
Pressurized collapse
I strike out in fury
Bid my reflection vanish
Sit in the pour
Hurricane hypnotized
I closed my eyes
I got stuck in yours
Lost in their storm
I am so puny in your pupils
Waves, do nothing but wave
Can I ever reach land when
All I do is beg to drown
What a captivating cruise
What an incandescent blue
What light is left for me without you?
#poem#poetry#writing#spilled ink#twcpoetry#poeticstories#this is to say#im lost in your eyes#and it fucking hurts#is that a good pickup line?#is this poem any decent i really cant fucking tell

My brain immediately: YES I FUCKING SHOULD EVERYONE WOULD TOTALLY READ A BOOK WITH ALL MY THOUGHTS
#this is to say#you're lucky you get to read these posts for free#also embrace your need for constant attention#everybody in your life probably hates you for it but who cares#delusional

i totally get why artists dont want to use etsy anymore but as someone who used to buy from fan artists on there a lot, I really, really feel its absence. there really isnt a single place where I can search for that kind of stuff now and the instagram and twitter search algorithms make it really difficult to find stuff and that plus the fact that a lot of artists now avoid outright mentioning fandom or character names to avoid getting in trouble, it just really makes searching for this stuff really hard. honestly feels like most of the artists i've bought from or followed i found out about through other peoples reblogs or just word of mouth
#this is to say#i want cute zoro pins#and i am struggling to find them#i need to get a convention again honestly#but i still dont get out much with the pandemic and i also have no one to go with
