Zazie the Beast

I love this little jerk.

Gotta put a pin in talking about the character in the next episode analysis, but Zazie was such a brilliant change from the character in the manga and older series, where somehow the planet having existing inhabitants before the crash never really seemed to come up much.

Zazie, this time, has much more power and agency by virtue of being positioned as a neutral observer. The Worms take no sides. It's nothing to them that these aliens do battle, only that the battleground is the planet the Worms live on. Since neither seems like they can behave, they need an adjudicator, so the Worms field a kind of... terminal? Representative? Messenger? Agent? Impartial, neither Plant blue or human red. Zazie is effectively unable to truly die, so the stakes for them are low. I think even stuff like a Grand Worm getting bisected is more annoying than anything, because all the Worms are interconnected. They’ll return through the network and become other forms of Worm, so nothing is lost. (And it’s not like they can’t eat humans right back.) They have no understanding of individuality, so the vagaries of human relationship drama are bizarre to them - but amusing to observe and manipulate.

And despite being referred to as "worms", proverbially the lowliest of lifeforms, Zazie isn't wrong to say "The Worms are the planet".

They're visible from space.

In fact, Zazie in general tends not to lie. Even in disguise as a human child, never did Zazie actually claim to be the son of those people in the gas station. You just assume that from appearances (as Zazie gleefully points out). I suspect it's for that reason they were the ones to tell Meryl about Earth. Knives would transparently be biased and manipulative, Vash might explain it too kindly (or not at all, out of a desire to try and leave it in the past). Zazie is invested, knowledgeable, but unconcerned which side comes off better.

In a world steeped in Abrahamic trappings, Zazie is an entirely different kind of god - an embodied natural force, alien and all-encompassing, amoral, indifferent to humankind. Honest, in their own way, but not trustworthy, and loyal only to their own agenda.

Which makes it real neat that teeny tiny self-righteous human Meryl is the one they chose to learn the truth.

Seeing so many people I once respected and even adored/admired prove themselves mask off antisemites when given the chance and an "appropriate" enough reason is so incredibly heartbreaking. So many left leaning and supposedly empathetic people apparently do not hear themselves right now.

I can taste colors, why the hell is this metallic gray taste like a scone?

Somehow I'm babysitting my siblings again.

I saw someone walking their velvet worm and it was the best part of my day.

Trin is the best character I've made and I'm hypercixating and you can't stop me.

I love Fallout, I hate Todd Howard and Josh Sawyer.

The Fallout Apocrypha is not canon except for Dogmeat constantly reincarnating into new forms.

Give me something new about Van Buren!

Shut up about the Native Americans Josh Sawyer!!

I have never seen the pure essence of myself condensed so well, thank you! :D

the reaction to the w*tcher announcement is so interesting because while i do think its an incredibly bad idea in terms of like business decisions, its so funny how everyone is for creators getting paid fairly until it comes to actually paying for content

[comradecowplant]

Had an old post get reblogged which I used as an excuse to take a leisurely stroll through my 2021 (feels like a decade ago ☠) blog and noticed this post that is literally just a full-dressed anime girl with the words "trans women" is fucking flagged for adult content???????? Absolutely mental!!!!

working theory is that it's harder for me to watch something in french with english subtitles than to watch something in french with french subtitles. which isn't what i would have expected, since i'm not fluent in french, and i do still to some extent have to translate french into english in order to understand it, though not fully. so you'd think having an english translation already available would make things easier. but actually it's kind of distracting because then i'm taking the ~half of the french sentence i actually picked out and reverse engineering the english translation to figure out what the other half must have been. which it turns out takes more time and effort than reading captions that match the audio even if they are both in a language i only kind of sort of know. maybe also because i'm actually pretty good at reading french at this point? further research needed.

I don't have a solid opinion on him, but I think Hal's last words are sort of interesting. Because he knows full well that everybody will most likely turn on RaggedPelt if they ever learned about his father, he's spitting in the face of RaggedPelt and the Clans with these last words. Absent, yes, 100% I'm not denying that he doesn't care for his son, it's just that his last words -in my opinion- leave you thinking for a moment

I dunno though that's just my interpretation of his last words

that is true...considering he had a relationship with a clan cat, he was probably well aware of how the clans thought of him. i figure featherpelt, whether directly or indirectly, gave him a good idea of what clan life would look for him.

kind of a shame we don't get to know more about hal and featherpelt's relationship, it kind of reads like a rushed relationship that ended in one heck of a fight.

What kind of haunting are you?

The Poltergeist

You're just a silly little guy. You don't mean to hurt anybody. You just need attention. Maybe your methods are a little maldaptive, but you just need someone to tell you that they love you, and maybe that you're funny, or maybe that they like having you around or you're missed now that you're gone. I hope a nice queer goth moves into the place you're haunting so you'll have someone who understands.

following suit from @cxpedcrusxder
