IM SORRY THIS SAT IN MY DRAFTS SO LONG BUT I FINALLY EDITED IT
Ah. Time to articulate. So I want to be clear right at the start here and say most of this hinges on my own interpretations of symbolism. There is nowhere in the lore where anything says point blank “Marika wanted to make an angel of vengeance” (or something similar, but in fromsoft writing style). But to me it’s implied that’s what she did!
Basically, take this read with a grain of salt because it’s a lot of interpretation! You don’t have to enjoy it or agree with it, and symbols often represent many things, so there are definitely multiple ways to read Messmer.
That said let’s get into it.
First of all, I’m working under the assumption Messmer is Marika’s firstborn. This is heavily implied from Gaius’ greaves, which say Messmer was an elder brother to Radahn. The only other demigods we know to be older than Radahn would be Godwyn and the omen twins (? Possibly, unclear on where they fit in the timeline). Messmer could feasibly be somewhere in the middle of that lineup, but I think not based on his vibes and symbolism (we’ll get to this later in the post). I think Marika had him shortly after the genocide of her people. The O Mother gesture being in Bonny Village also implies this—like Marika gave birth somewhere familiar. This is slightly complicated by opening narration saying the first demigods were Godfrey’s children. Marika may have taken Godfrey as Elden Lord before she left the Shadow Lands, which would make this make sense.
Second of all: the genocide. Understandably, Marika was distraught with grief and rage after her people were destroyed and put into jars (items to check out here are anything to do with living jars, but specifically the tooth whip and the spectres around Bonny Village and the Gaols). This was done for spiritual reasons (implied by ghosts saying they’ll be “saints”), so it seems Marika’s apotheosis was a direct response to what happened and a very…thematic attempt at revenge.
That’s the key thing here: revenge. And that divinity is the way to get it.
Revenge is Marika’s focus right around the time she had Messmer. I think she may have manifested that desire in him. I don’t just mean that she raised him to be an armament of war (though that is likely true, too) but that she literally put all of what she was feeling into his soul.
…I know that’s very metaphysical and weird, but it is how I see their relationship. In fact, I think most if not all of Marika’s children represent some aspect of her own being and are manifestations of some desire. For example, Godwyn seems to be the first of Godfrey’s children born in Leyndell and is the incarnation of the “ideal” order of things.
But anyways back to Messmer.
Messmer was born of a “single god.” Regardless of who you think his second parent is (or if he even has one), Marika is the god this refers to. Something about her newly-given godhood and the depth of her human emotion just screams to me that she might’ve, accidentally or intentionally, birthed what she felt the world needed: something to bathe it in divine fire and avenge her people.
A lot of that read has to do with Messmer’s fire as well and how it’s discussed.
I know some people think the fire is his curse (and you could certainly view a soul full of vengeance this way) alongside the base serpent, but given the way items describe it, I don’t think so. It seems to me that the fire was only an attractant for the base serpent. Snakes sense our heat, after all, and we know from his Remembrance that the base serpent feeds off his fire. But without the base serpent, Messmer seems fine and has no issues using his fire. The fire doesn’t necessarily act as a curse—it just attracted one. That’s what I’m getting at when I say by creating an angel of vengeance, Marika ended up cursing her son.
What about the angel part of my original take? Well, Messmer is a demigod. But what originally got me thinking about this was the winged serpents. If you look at his character model, they run through his shoulders and exit from his spine and one shoulder blade. They can be held like (admittedly fucked up) wings, not to mention they have wings themselves. To me, that reads as angel.
It’s interesting to me that fire (vengeance) insta-cursed Messmer. Because that’s true to life. You can’t end cycles of violence by killing/hurting just One More Guy. If your only purpose in life is revenge, of fucking course you’re gonna end up with The Horrors gnawing at your soul.
That’s pretty much all I have for elaboration on my original take. Hope this helps 👍
TLDR: there is no canon evidence for the original post, I just like interpreting winged serpent positioning and fire symbolically and got “damn he’s an angel of vengeance.”
If you’re wondering why I’m like this: it’s because I’ve read Carrie, so now I get way too into religious vengeance in media since it reminds me of that book.
Bonus: biblically accurate angel vibes from all the eyes on the base serpent
Marika trying to create an angel of vengeance and instead accidentally laying a curse on her firstborn because Cycle of Violence is so….yeah. I don’t have the words right now to express this more articulately oops

When Machete became a cardinal, did his parents ever recognize him?
Machete's home village was on the other side of Italy (and separated by the sea no less) and it was small, relatively rural and remote. It's very unlikely many news about Holy See's happenings made their way there. I don't think his parents had any reason to expect to ever hear about him again, he seemed to be somewhat of a lost cause when they dropped him off.

thinking about matthias having a sensitivity to hearing you call his name 😣♡ he can't remember the last time he heard someone say it so passionately. most people just opt for "mr. czernin" out of polite distance. calling him matthias might seem like a no brainer to you once you cross a certain threshold w/ him but his heart flutters a bit every time,, it's a welcome reminder that he is still visible to someone out there. ofc, he's good at hiding the impact it has on him

Going to do a Nevermoor series reread in June + July + August ? if anyone else also wants to do a reread around that time, could be fun to have more of the fandom prepping for Silverborn
Did initially make a roadmap plan to split the books up into weeks on top of already being months, so that people could focus on specific parts and discuss each week….. but between the fact that I messed it up the first time, Silverborn kept getting delayed as I planned it, and I’m actually really bad at keeping to stuff like that (looking at you, Silverborn Countdown Challenge…) I’m deciding to just go for it at whatever pace happens.
#will def be June/July but we’ll have to see if I get into August. may want to keep most of that + September as Silverborn Hype Months lol#nevermoor#silverborn#if you ever followed my rereads thoughts masterpost for my (reread?) eternal reread and wondered ‘why no hollowpox’? boy is it a doozy#beginning of the year Apple Books updated and I’m not huge on it!#and since I couldn't fix I decided I would try and delete and reinstall the app.....#…..forgetting that my books and notes are tied to the app and not saved otherwise…..#so I lost all my notes INCLUDING all my reactions and thoughts from my very first reread that I was excited to look back on and share 🥲😭😭😭#so I’ve just been in mourning and never continued out of my personal beef with the app….#so this time I think I’ll take use of all my different physical copies and read them physically to give myself a break from screens lol#this summer is just grindset time of getting back into drawing and trying to get good so this reread I also want to draw stuff alongside#like try to nail some character designs and such to make it easier for Silverborn lol#I fear I will need to figure out how to draw dragons……#anyways. if you’ve read all these tags you are now required to join in on the reread with me 🫵#this also reminds me I need to keep working / actually work on the nine spreadsheet / masterpost. will do that ✍️#I have had several drafts saved of posts I want to respond to with theories that I’ve been saving for my hollowpox reread that now I’m like#do I just save them for Silverborn?? lol

Coding woes (Patreon)
#Doodles#Original#Ukadevlog#Bug testing sure is something lol#These are both problems I've figured out now luckily! And I did them on my own! :D Extra pleased with myself :3#My slightly cocky attitude of ''Well that was frustrating - luckily I'll never run into another problem again'' amuses me lol#'Cause in the moment everything's flying! The code comes together lovely and it's all great! And then I come up to the next thing#Something I haven't done before - something that there's no Direct how-to of how to do a thing#Like setting player-and-character pronouns! I didn't know how to do that! But I figured it out!! :0 What a rush haha#It really did take me an evening of knocking my head against the wall in attempts - I waaaayyy overcomplicated it to start haha#I was like - trying to set up a system that would call on specific pronoun sets individually based on player input#Ridiculous - so much easier to just slap some values into an envelope and have those tied to a specific shell lol#But that took all night! I got sleepy while working on it and even my drowsy brain was like Wait...what am I supposed to check against? Haha#Such a weird experience subconsciously as well :0 'Cause I had normal dreams that night#Maybe some slight code-adjacent dreams of A Screen With Text On It but that could be anything :P#Most of it was just normal dream melodrama - but in the few times I woke up to readjust or roll over or pull my blanket#It was juuuuust enough for my ''conscious'' brain to kick in and think about what to compare against - what structure would work#And so by the time I woke up proper I had to frantically write down a bunch of code in a spare word document so I wouldn't go stir crazy lol#Breakfast must wait! Dailies must wait! I Have to write this down!!#And when I implemented it - it worked exactly as I hoped it would and is much much Muuuuuch simpler to call upon haha#Wow! That was a weird fluke that definitely won't happen again! Haha#I don't actually believe that I just have no way of guessing which aspect will trip me up - This Should Be Easy! And then it isn't lol#Definitely didn't predict the second - Especially because other than a small roadbump of not knowing how to Shell-Switch (ty again Cherry ♥)#Everything up to then was going well and everything after that was going fine! Until The One Thing happened pffbtl#I wanted to assign a value to check if a specific piece of code was being called upon - basically a fork between two outcomes#That went fine! The value Was changing! But only the first fork was being called???#No lol I just didn't put the second = ugh pft - and what's more frustrating is that I'd been using == up to that point!! I'd been warned!!!!#I - for some reason - was convinced that using && would make the value check Only need to check If x = 1... That's not how it works......#It's an If statement! If x = 1 then why do I have to check IF x == 1! Just check!!! Hwagh rules and whatnot lol#Like I said it's all fixed now but sheesh! What a silly mistake! I knew better!! And now I double know better haha

Thanks for tagging @atuats-sidechick :3
Um this is what I'm thinking of reading (by which I mean listening to on tape) in 2025 🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
................... this is only half a joke....because I should be throwing in the Yangchen books in there as well! (I have a problem)
Ok, ok. For real. Besides re-listening to the Kyo/YC novels. I plan on starting and/or finishing these~!
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
I JUST finished "The Girl From the Well" so I'm ready to go with "The Suffering"! B) I hope it's a happy time!
I've already read Darkly Dreaming Dexter years ago, but never finished the series because it was still being written back then, so I'm gonna try to binge the books now that they're all out. But I'll only list the first book cause I dunno when I'll get to the other's.
I'm also re-listening to the Hunger Games series (I'm on Catching Fire right now), but the new one comes out next year so I'm excited.
Open to anyone (I'm too tired to tag right now TT0TT)

The news in the original media: The third season of Good Omens will have just one 90-minute movie episode. The news in the media in my country: the third season of Good Omens has been CANCELED and will now only have a 90-minute special.
#If I had gotten the news from the press in my country I would have had a heart attack#ok maybe they are right#technically it is as if there is no more S3#now it is a movie#or a concluding special#the original press is just trying to soften it#I am happy because we are going to have a conclusion#I am slightly frustrated that we are not going to have a season with several episodes#but I think 90 minutes is better than nothing#it is better than canceling#90 minutes to fix the last 15 minutes of S2 and give a happy ending#it is less screen time than we would like#but it is more than we would have had if they had considered canceling and not doing anything else from GO#I am rooting for them to give us what we need (happy ending and a well-tied conclusion)#since they are not going to give us what we want (a full season)#I think it is understandable who is suffering with this news#as well as those who are accepting it with contentment#every fan has the right to let themselves feel what they are feeling#honestly? I was already expecting something like this#because it didn't make much sense to me how they would remove the screenwriter of the project and still keep the script for it?#I think a part of me already knew that the removal could mean this#now it's time to support the production and actors by sending positive vibes#because I imagine that they are not responsible for this decision#this is a matter for the executive team#and although we are frustrated that we will not have a full season#it was certainly not the ideal solution for the fans and for the production and actors and others involved#but it was the possible solution#I'm still waiting for official notes from Amazon Prime and BBC#good omens#inefabble husbands

i don’t know what you guys are all complaining about i love that svu has vaporized olivia from woman on the verge to lady cragen
#she's behind the desk she's giving advice she's scolding the kids#she has a life we know nothing about but we know she's Seen It All and also is Lonely#i haven't been saying much about this season because here is the humiliating truth:#i am letting the cop show make me sad#(i should know better)#yes the lack of eo is a bummer but we've done it before we'll do it again#but having a season of genuinely interesting character work re olivia#to have the narrative directly engage with her as a soft furious grieving woman#to question her state of mind and what she does to herself in service of The Calling#only to not simply backtrack but neutralize her fully…#yeesh#is it a coincidence m has barely spoken a word about svu on any press appearances this season?#well no because what is there to say really#this is not a landmark season and there are zero plans to move olivia forward#she’s right where we left her tune into nbc thursdays at 8pm eastern#BUT what makes me most sad is that this shift was a demand from the viewers#(again! i should know better! and yet!)#i am just. a little heartbroken to have it confirmed that much of the audience loves olivia on the condition that she is Good#not only because she very much isn't#but also because that is boring and dangerous and speaks to our deeply warped perception of what it means to be a complete person#more specifically a complete woman#yet the audience lets out a sigh of relief! saint olivia is back! she is a Strong Woman giving Lawfully Good advice! phew!#remember when she was a little broken and volatile and seeing ghosts don’t worry she’s fixed now :)#please note my reaction is certainly tied to other real life happenings including 11/5 looming#alas it’s where i am#anyways dw you’re a loser
