ughh i have so many feelings about characters that are backed into a corner, snarling and bleeding and dying but instead of letting themselves die and fade into obscurity they get up and keep fighting. they don’t just let themselves get swept into the wings of the heavens—instead they grit their teeth and make their death mean something. if they’re going down, if there’s no other option—their death is going to mean something. if they’re dying, they’ll take another dozen, hundred, thousand of their enemies with them. even if it’s meaningless in the end, even if they won’t survive to see the happy ending the bloodshed won them. they’d rather plunge a knife into their heart and make the world watch than pass away in a hospital bedside, they’d rather bleed themselves dry out of spite to cover up the sight of their foes celebrating.

#desperate characters #technically done with shen jiu in mind #i mean i will never excuse his child abuse but genuinely i do think his character is extremely complex #the way mxtx wrote his trauma as a reason—never an excuse—and managed to make people understand that there’s no 1 size fits all for victims #i mean he absolutely continued the cycle of abuse #which is obv not a good thing at all #but the way he clawed himself from a slave all the way to a peak lord is absolutely impressive #i think the tragedy of his character is that sometimes trauma isn’t something you get over #it stays with you like the monster under your bed #sometimes it won’t leave and you’ll be stuck looking at its reflection in every mirror you see #and maybe some of it was because of his own inability to trust #but really didn’t everyone else damn him first? at least if he closes himself off it was his choice #he can pretend it was his choices that made everyone hate him #not that they all decided to be willfully blind to his clear trauma #ok so generally i understand why people don’t like him #but i do think he’s such an interesting character #mxtx #svsss #shen jiu #sqq #sj

I finished the siege of Weisshaupt quest last night, and feel like BioWare did a really good job of selling how chaotic it was. I really felt how batshit overwhelmed everyone was, facing wave upon wave upon wave of Darkspawn from all sides, the booming taunt of Ghilan'nain in the sky and an Archdemon destroying every plan and hiding place as fast as the party could come up with them.

The closest comparison to this mission, ofc, is the assault on Adamant Fortress in DAI. But I never felt the characters’ desperation like I did during Weisshaupt. The relentless mantra of “keep moving, keep fighting, make it alive to just the next second, we have to try we have no choice”.

And because of the dialogue options I picked, it made me the most invested in my Rook that I’ve been for the entire game so far. I kept picking encouraging dialogue, and as the mission went on it really began to feel like she was straining, keeping a strong front because she’s the leader, it’s what she has to do, because if she doesn’t keep up a steady stream of “we’re gonna be okay, we’ll figure out plan B, C, D, don’t give up” then not only will she have failed her team when they need her most, but she herself will fall apart and be unable to do what comes next.

It’s Lucanis yelling, “how am I supposed to stab a cloud with a dagger?!” It’s Davrin saying the horns are calling reinforcements to the east battlements - “And where are we?!” “The east battlements!” - and the realization that the 3 of us fighting these Darkspawn alone are the reinforcements. It’s the dying screams of Wardens every few minutes, it’s the wall is gone the bell tower is gone the escape path is gone everyone is gone—

It’s Rook standing by the dragon trap, muttering, “And now I die.”

it’s also Lucanis’ EPIC move with the wings and dagger

This was the first time in Veilguard that I felt truly sucked into the story. If nothing else, I’m glad I got at least one moment like that.

#dragon age #datv #da4 #dragon age veilguard #dragon age the veilguard #spoilers #obvs this was partly due to my imagination and image of rook #ymmv and all that #i’ve been seeing a lot of posts about things veilguard falls flat on and ‘it’s good BUT’#a lot of which i agree on!#so when i experienced smth genuinely positive like this i wanted to share it #i imagine it’s a whole ‘nother level if you’re playing a GW rook too (mine is a SD)

Ngl the liam lawson hate is getting real tiring

#it isn't even the 2nd race yet #and anyway before the season even started so many ppl were giving him shit #so it's obv not even rational #and for goodness' sake he's been thrown into the deep end with the intense scrutiny & that messed up car #don't bother trying to validate ur hate reasoning here cuz believe me when I say I won't gaf #the decision to put him in rbr wasn't even his fault #'he's so arrogant' biatch we have barely seen him #and news flash all of them are 'proud' in some way or another cuz they're in the big leagues #also most have just been referencing dts??? which everyone should know by now is the furthest thing from a reliable source #(anyway honestly he's fine in the dts clips so idk what ppl r yapping abt)#news flash he did NOT take DR's seat #he did NOT take checo's seat #he did NOT take yuki's seat #the decision ultimately wasn't up to him and it's stupid to rag on the guy for it #(and I say this as a fan/chill with those 3 drivers)#it is what it is and anyway thr's a non-zero chance rbr will swap him out if he doesn't perform #srsly tho I've seen so many ppl being so quick to jump at the chance to shit on him which baffles me cuz like what has he even done #he's barely been in f1 #liam lawson #chinese gp 2025 #also he hasn't had the chance to race prop in months? and like I said the rb is kinda messed up rn #and also he hadn't raced at australia ever #if yall r talking abt his reaction in the car last yr ok but it doesn't warrant the lvl of hate he gets?#and AGAIN all the drivers are high on adrenaline in the races bruh be fr #the drivers get over shit much faster than most of yall (if ever) do #side note: max is also a Freak at racing so expecting liam to immediately perform in a car that even max is struggling with is smt...#anyway it's so stupid how so many of yall yap abt mental health and criticise dts for spreading hate while spreading hate urselves.

hey guys does anybody know whats the date today

#.... SORRY.#posts by me dot com #ok. i rembered it was hs day today and did this in about. 1 hour. at 5am rip #i. TTRULY did not spend enough time + i dont rmb enough to give them accurate and true classpects. but #okay. heres my rationale for all of them #callie rogue. obvs. her family are smugglers. she took one of those smuggled goods (serpent egg) and tried to give it to someone better.#stealing and redistributing hope etc. hope i chose for idea of potential & infinite possibilities (destiny peregrines).#also if i rmb right.. hope is one of the classes for like losers. which. i mean that is all of duck teams. losers who realise they suck #AND kick ass #sol blood. connections & bonds we fight for. also his whole arc abt family. etc etc #page because. ok uh #pages have a whole thing of starting out as nobodies and becoming someone. v dteam. i did also consider giving him knight but. ultimately #wanted to draw sol in the page shorts shorts. so. well.#calder i was. least sure abt #gave him void i think relates to his feeling of smallness/insignificance/uselessness + the helm...#and a knight. bcus hes a selfsacrificing guy. also his entire character is like... protecting ppl. very knightly #i dont remember that much abt the knight class tbh tho. RIP #also not featured but oliana/aryox seers of mind. OBVS #......... we are NOT main tagging this one gang B)

being obsessed with a game thats only a demo and not a lot of people know about so the interest surrounding it is relatively small and the dev is kinda ominously vague in the patch/update notes so the players have to find what the dev fixed/added to the game and u'll look at the nearly empty wiki and see smth u've never seen in the game before and when u look it up all u'll find is a shitty picture taken from someones phone of their computer screen and god the wiki is so empty waiting to be filled out but every other day or so theres new discovery videos on youtube and the official discord and subreddit and its a whole community effort to search for and document all the bits and pieces the dev left in the game for the players to find no matter if its lore related or just a fun easter egg bc its still important and worth being shared!! i like discovering new things about a game i really like and seeing other peoples discoveries too! i like speculating with other people about a game that is slowly developing and changing and growing!! i like coming together and appreciating a small game and its dev!! i love praising hard working talented devs and their games!! i love seeing what a small game and its dev are capable of!! i love giving feedback and talking to the dev!!! i love small games even if it feels like im the only person who knows of its existance or the only one that cares!!! i love video game!!!!!!!!

#honk.sfx #holy shit i had this post saved from 2023 buried under a bunch of posts #why the hell didnt i post this???#whatever #be free‚ little post #this was obv about voices of the void but since i made this post its gotten a lot more traction #which is both a really good thing and a really bad thing #i shudder when i think about the official discord and some of the shit ive seen on the subreddit....#but otherwise its um.....#votv deserves the attention is all ill say #even if that attention comes with some.... bad actors.

I'm sorry I can't take your call right now, I'm becoming unhinged about Transformers again,,,

#i just. man #first of all i was super into it when i was younger. optimus prime has long been a projectable (and ratchet too‚ from tfp)#but even that's like more recent. when i was SEVEN i was running around in circles to the transformers 1980 theme and re-binging the movie #(autism? what? who? where? but fr it was like a daily thing p much where me and my brothers would just lose it to that song. good ol' days)#transformers #for the search function lol. anyways back to the ramble: the obsession started young and continued throughout my teenage years #the transformers prime version was ABSOLUTELY peak and clears every time. still SO good my brothers and i binged the heck out of that too #but i don't think we ever got to watch the movie??? or maybe it was season 3??? either way i remember being like WHAT OPTIMUS IS EVIL???#and never getting resolution which i still need to do (also reminding me of clone wars...never did finish that one and still not spoiled)#anyway yeah the nintendo 3DS transformers prime game was yet another staple of my childhood. fave main was optimus obvs #but it just fills me with joy to see the resurgence in this and also makes me feel some complex emotions because it's a part of little me #and that version of me feels like so long ago...my own orion pax in a way #11-year-old me checking out giant lore books and speeding through them (i need to find this one book!! it's been years!!#it was the first transformers tome i ever read and told the story of orion pax!! and i vaguely remember the cover? but not the title! help!)#ANYway yes just feeling a lot of feelings and. i love transformers #kay can i just catch my breath for a second #kay has a party in the tags #also if you're reading this: i voted and you should too!!!

ANYWAY. my sister finally broke up with her toxic bf, and this time it's the real thing. thank god

#admittedly the guy is not. a bad person but he's bad for her period #they still care about each other but both of them understood their relationship wasn't sane anymore #it's like ''we love each other but we can't be together. thanks for the good times i'll always remember them fondly #but we need to move on now and grow up as people. separately''#they both don't feel hate or harsh resentment for the other which imo is a good thing #rage would only poison their brains. and my sister needs time to heal and some peace of mind #my family and i (and also her friends) will try to stay close to her and comfort her #she's got lots of abandonment issues and she's very afraid of being alone. obv she'll never be alone because we're all here for her #she's not blameless or flawless but she's such a good hardworking sensitive girl and deserves the best #after all the shit she's been through #i love her so much ❤️#val speaks #txt

feel like im so so so close to unlocking a higher level of thinking about art google search how to induce brain blast

#that thing about how nobody draws the way i want to draw but realizing past cheye #made the art i wanna be making but better.#thinking about how the struggle with my art is how there's so many ways to draw something or someone #and obvs i have my preferred ways which leads to ''style'' but it still makes it hard to Choose.#as well as tell if it looks good or not #nothing ever has to be the same #the way i also struggle to get inspired bc i struggle to find ppl drawing Weird or Ugly art.#not being able to relate to a lot of general inspiration because it all looks the same.#twitter post heres my hot oc with 1M likes and its the same face the artist draws everyone with which is the same #face everyone draws to denote an attractive person. next.#*i* want to and should make things far outside of this. everything can be drawn in any and every way #my only struggle rn is i still dont have fundamentals down. truly and really. if i could make something look #good bad on purpose instead of bad bad id be home free #how do i get there i need to get there #its like how if you look at ana/tola Howard's work there's lots of things that dont look '''right''' but they look Good. how? how?#i wanna get there #talkys

but i'm not supposed to scratch

#undescribed #bonk.png #uninhabited planet survive #mujin wakusei survive #HOOO BOY this is extremely self indulgent bc i like fake episodes n storylines for things n sharla is my second fav of the bunch #before i forgot caption is a line from love me more by mitski n the dialogue is taken straight from wakaba's elevator scene in utena #just altered for the characters' genders obv back to yapping all the pieces were in place for sharla to have a jealousy subplot like in the #second half of the show (after adam is introduced basically) sharla n luna dont as much focus together with the secondary character to luna #shifting to kaoru bc of being more involved in directdanger all the time n sharla not being good at that stuff is relegated to the sidelines #which is something shes insecure about!! shes not as good at survival action as everyone else n doesnt have anything skills unique to her #she LITERALLY stops taking her rations of water so the others can have more bc she feels like she doesnt matter as much as the others!!#shes fairytale girl sharla which is good for morale (esp luna's) but not particularly helpful when theyve gone a few days with no food #she also is implied to have no proper friends before meeting luna in the first episode (at which point they immediately become ride or die)#with her only sort of friend being a girl she hung out with despite her being bullied n excluded who then left her for the bullies #n episode 17 is about her wanting luna to be able to rely on her with them sharing eachother's history of loneliness #the show also has a emphasis on their circumstances escalating emotions n causing them to lash out at eachother theres a episode right b4 #the winter arc where howard is jealous n lashes out bc hes used to being the center of attention but no on on the island really likes himdue #to him being a brat so he soaks up adam's attention like a sponge n freaks out when adam starts favoring menori #which is understandble n somewhat easy to digest n process but you know who has a more prominent history of loneliness n abandonment who is #also prone to insecurity n thrives on someone's affection? sharla n i set this fake story line during the space criminals arc bc it doesnt #really have a lot of character work n takes place right after the winter arc with both having the characters stuck inside for most of it bc #of more direct serious danger n sharla along with chako n shingo would be stuck inside the most BUT with the criminals arc chako n shingo #are actively doing something theyre contributing but all sharla can do is watch adam while luna her bestie luna is out dealing with people #literally hunting them with kaoru who is notably better than everyone else at the whole survival action thing has become closer to lunasince #the winter arc n from what sharla has seen has no flaws or weaknesses theres specific reasons as to why i dont think her negative feelings #would be focused on the others bc for varying reasons she wouldnt feel they threaten her relationship with luna (the rationalization for #bell not being viewed as a possible threat is interesting to me bc of the similarities between him n sharla both of them bonding early on n #her being implied to have a crush on him while he explicitly has a crush on luna but thats not what we're talking about rn)#but none of those reasons really apply to kaoru n she has the reason of Him Saying He Killed Someone to feel more justified in directing #all her stress about their situation n the anxiety crawling up her throat about luna potentially choosing someone else over her onto him

oh to be as delusionally in love as my great grandpa saying albacete is the prettiest city in spain

#i do love the city because of all the family i have there and i think it's a great place #but one of her many good things is not her beauty #like the only pretty areas are parks and the ensanche part which can be found in every city #and obvs el pasaje de lodares but that's one hallway

anyways. I don’t think Jon trusted Jude Perry re: handshake but I think he really really wanted to bc he was in his “I’m turning into a monster” era and wanted a reason to think that “avatar” didn’t necessarily have to mean “evil without exception.”

We know he does a lot of 1) repressing what he doesn’t want to believe and 2) using his pain as payment so

#jarchivist #tma #the magnus archives #jon sims #Haven’t relistened to any of the Jude Perry eps in a minute tho so!#im posting this without thinking and then going to bed. which is always a good idea obvs #If this is like an obvious thing that we all agreed on ages ago sorry I wasn’t here yet

HEAR ME OUT!!!

Bakudeku/Class-1A Camp Rock AU

DOES ANYONE ELSE SEE THE VISION

#I’m so sorry but I thought of it this morning and it’s all I can think about #bakudeku #izuku as Mitchie and Inko as her mom obv #connect three is Katsuki kirshima and kaminari #ochako is Kaitlyn #shoto is that popular girl idr her name but the parental issues are 1 to 1 istg #jirou is Margaret dupree #aizawa and present mic are counselors #do you see do you see the vision #I can see the whole movie in my head someone help me plz #Katsuki being sent back to his childhood camp bc he’s become an asshole and needs to reconnect with music #camp rock is really elitist and expensive like in the movie and izuku gets ostracized for being ‘inexperienced’ and behind everyone else #kiri as Nick and Denki as Kevin #ochako wants to become a music producer and work with a list musicians bc there’s good money in it #and she’s really good at the technical side of things #maybe izuku thinks Katsuki is just a pretentious front man but Katsuki is the one who writes the drums for all their music #but he’s not the one performing drums on stage bc he’s busy singing #izuku and Katsuki met as kids through piano lessons and izuku had a knack for all sorts of instruments which made Katsuki jealous #Katsuki focused on piano and later drums bc he gets to hit things #both think the other is way more incredible than themselves for opposite reasons #master of one vs decent Jack of all trades #the only thing that isn’t an easy fit is that todo isn’t a Mean Girl #but I could see endeavor seeing izuku as a threat and making shoto target him #PLEASE SOMEONE HELP ME AM I CRAZY #camp rock au

Sorry to be stupid but which band did Joe almost get "sold" to?? (I was thinking about it for so long and couldn't figure it out)

omg LOL no anon you're not stupid i will freely admit that 1. it was not a very good joke on my part and 2. i was coming at it from a weird angle anyway😭 i was mostly thinking convolutedly ab like. joe in relation to 2010 the damned things :')

#i say joe in particular and not andy cus by all accounts it seems andy would have been good to go like pretty much whenever maybe #whereas joe has said many times he was reticent ab doing fob again #idk hes said it himself just the fact of tdt's success gave him room to grow + self confidence + therefore potential to forge his own way #tbh kinda seems like he was digging his heels in if he had to get prompted by josh newton lol #like ok obviously i have NOO IDEA what it was like to be joe in that era lmao at the end of the day all we can do is glean but idk #sometimes i just wonder what if joe had rlly genuinely found a groove either with tdt or not #(and idt it wouldve been w tdt entirely just cus obv the other members do other things. but u get it like SOME endeavour after)#like. what would fob/fob history look like.#i mean. they do insist it was never a split #and i'd love to believe it's 4 or nothing 4ever since the band is emphatically founded on friendship..#so maybe just longer hiatus. idk but u know. just 💭💭💭#however idk i do think the other side of the coin of his reticence #and he does admit this himself in saying he eventually started making stipulations to return #was just simply wanting to be wanted back. just wanting room for him #if the sheer extent to which The Call w patrick affected him is anything to go by #to this DAY he rmmbrs that fuckass 3 hour phone call with such fondness like LOL girl what the hell went down. and THANK GOD !!!!!!!!!!#so i guess also maybe it was always going to turn out the way it did.<3 #oh no. well. sorry for incoherently overthinking and being embarrassing all over ur question anon👍#honestly tho. it's just astounding the certain points of fob history that hinge on joe ?! lmao #asks

why are you, as an adult in 2024, still hung up on reylo. why are you still mocking the shippers. why do you believe yourself to be superior only because you dislike a stupid ship from a fucking space fairytale. girl (gnc) get a grip

#it's ridiculous. this ship is... stupidly cliché. like if you know fandoms at all #you could easily guess why people would be into it. hello?? have you tried to watch tfa without your hate-on-kyle-ron goggles?#did you watch their scenes together? you don't have to like something to recognize the hints #hell. at the time i didn't really like jonerys but i realized they were going to be a thing when i read agot in 2011 #like folks. it's been nearly TEN LONG YEARS. let it go. LET IT FUCKING GOOOO #and for the lucy/cooper shippers out there who think reylos are (again) delusional when they compare the two ships:#no. *you* are being delusional only because you think reylo is unsexy and uncool (which is your right to think btw. obv)#if you can't see why someone would like both of these pairings for similar reasons... idk what to say honestly #people compared it to hannigram... honestly. again i see why they would appeal to anyone who's into both ships #i really do. but... unpopular opinion (since i'm more of a clannibal fan than i could ever be of reylo):#they are more similar to reylo than will/hannibal. there i said it #i'm not talking about the writing (admittedly the quality of it was questionable). i'm talking about tropes #never mind that imo the ghoul is more akin to vader than kylo but whatever #hannibal is an unapologetic kind of villain. he's not gonna have a redemption arc and that's okay #cooper is an antivillain who used to be a good man and became a disfigured cruel bastard. a parody of himself #lucy is him. him before the bombs dropped before he discovered the person he trusted the most wanted to commit genocide #nice. moral. polite. infused with the Good Old American Values™. he's basically her dark side #all of this is very hannigram/clannibal. i'm not denying it at all #but what'll likely happen is that lucy's actions will have a positive influence on the ghoul and remind him of what it means to be a man #and that's way more reylo-like. sorry.#beauty&thebeast/villain with some hidden good in him+morally righteous heroine/enemies to lovers etc.#i mean. hello??..... having said that. i'm not so much of a reylo shipper anymore and tbh never was. i really liked it at the time #but i was never fond of the st era. my fav characters are vader and leia and revan from the old eu. just saying #*and* it's also not impossible lucy gets darker with the ghoul as her traveling companion. in fact i wouldn't dislike it at all #if done well i mean #but i would still like for people to be intellectually honest and less puerile. god knows i have my notps #but i really don't give a fuck about the shippers. good for them i guess? i have better taste lmao but that's heavily subjective #val rambles in the tags #val speaks #txt
