Ulysses obsession with the Courier is a special type of sad to me cause the Courierâs part was so important but so unwitting. They had no idea what was in the package they delivered and neither did he. Neither had an idea of what it couldâve done and the Courier was only caring out their job (mind you the Courier could be killed via notes in the express contract if they donât). To them it was just another regular delivery to the divide and one that they likely thought would help, just like all the ones before.
Itâs so tragic for Ulysses to hold so much ire to the Courier when it really was the case of it couldâve been anyone. Anyone could have delivered that package but they did and so he focused the blame on them and it destroys what he is trying to instill in the courier on a fundamental level.
#like yeah the courier delivered the package but in the end thatâs a job#any random courier couldâve delivered it especially since we know in the past the factions were farther apart and this travel was a smidge#safer but courier six got it and this Ulysses blamed them#like I donât care much for Ulysses because I think lonesome road embodies donât shoot the messenger at it core#and what people focus on doesnât focus on the fact that in the bigger picture#everything went wrong because two factions were at war and at some point the codes would have been delivered#and the divide destroyed cause with how close it is to NCR territory it would of been found#like there is an inevitable and too many people treat Ulysses as if he knows more or is more aware of the idiosyncrasies of conflict#when heâs like fundamentally flawed just at the standard of being a legion apologist STILL and just how focused he is on one persons#involvement cause yeah choices matter even the small one but I think Veronicaâs quest says it best with a line from the courier#you canât control what they do#like the courier couldnât and canât control what they deliver and yet itâs got them in hot water multiple times#like do you think they enjoy being shot or knowing they are indirectly responsible for activating the annihilation of a community#to me itâs hypocrisy to be willing to end the world or one world to prove a point and whatever argument made that only military factions#suffer forget there are innocent civilians suffering that had no part and Ulysses is no better than the Courier#I donât like devils advocate and a lot of the dlc just feels like that but idk I know people love it but the depth is just not there for mr#ulysses fnv#fallout#fallout new vegas#courier six#the courier#lonesome road#the courier has very little personality outside what we give them but some lines and delivery paint a picture#like uhhhh undertale deltarune rules ig

You
#world of warcraft#anduin wrynn#the war within#In the tags of one of my previous anduin pieces I talked about that feeling of looking at old pictures of yourself#and wondering where they went#what happened to them#the pain of wanting their joy and happiness back#is that child still alive within you? can you revive them?#Or are they dead#tbh I feel like a large part of maintaining happiness as an adult is finding ways to indulge the child within you#at some point it is no longer your parents job to care for that child but yours.

A rare photo of Rommel sporting some sunglasses! Personally this is the only photo I've ever seen of him wearing any kinds of glasses, that includes the protection goggles he had attached to his officer's hat, even though he had those with him like all the time. The photo was taken by his friend Fritz Bayerlein and is part of Bayerlein's personal collection of photos from his time in North Africa. This collection was published in the book "The Private Afrikakorps Photograph Collection of Rommel's Chief-Of Staff Generalleutnant Fritz Bayerlein" (yes that's the entire title). It includes photos taken by Bayerlein himself as well as pictures of him taken by others, often with small annotations to describe the context of events.
In January 1943, when they had a brief period away from battles, Rommel and Bayerlein visited the ruins of the ancient Roman city of Leptis Magna (located in Libya) together. They were accompanied by Rommel's aide (and Bayerlein's close friend) Alexander Hartdegen, as well as probably some other officers who weren't further described. Bayerlein took the above photo of Rommel during their trip there, but also photographed some of the ancient architecture:

#the quality of these is a bit shit because they're from the book and I could only take pictures of it with my phone#also hi I'm not dead just still very busy </3 and just wasn't really motivated to be active in the past weeks#but maybe I can make more short posts like this one that are about less significant but still interesting things#also Rommel looks so funny with those glasses actually I wish Fritz had taken more pictures of him like that#erwin rommel#fritz bayerlein#leptis magna#world war 2#ww2#ww2 history#ww2 photography#reichblr

Hi it's like 11:30pm and I accidentally made myself emotional over the thought of PNF-404 mourning and grieving and missing a time when humans still lived on it, even if not all of those times were amazing. And when Olimar and everyone else starts crashing on it throughout the series (it tries to guide them down but when people resist and fight it then all goes terribly wrong despite it trying to lead them down relatively safely) it's delighted to see people again and while it won't hand them a super easy time, it knows they're capable of overcoming anything and is genuinely proud to see how they've all come along after all this time by the time of Pikmin 4
#Limbo Speaks#Pikmin#Pikmin 4#tag later#unsure if this makes sense I'm very tired and slightly high but yeah#I believe the world has a soul or spirit of its own#but it doesn't act or behave like a regular person. its still a huge collection of energies and emotions over thousands of years#but its lonely and it misses the old days#so it recreates different places and memories#my theory/headcanon is that humans left earth due to various reasons but dwindling resources or even a war torn world being some of em#and they figured out how to shrink themselves down to help make resources last 10x longer like food and such#but of course now its been so long they've long forgotten where they all came from#and so the various planets we see listed in Pikmin 4 are kinda the new stand-in for countries I suppose?#regardless I'm imagining the world of PNF-404 being able to see people again and seeing through one of their eyes what's happened since-#-they all left#and while it doesn't get the full picture it still sees people even after all this time will still band together and help each other out#humanity/starfolk still have flaws but they are still the determined loving resourceful people they've always been#and the world is proud of them#unsure if after Pikmin 4 it is able to be at peace or pass on in a way. or just goes on existing and pulling people down every now and then#just to keep from getting too lonely again#but yes this world is a physical planet but its also its own being#anyways sorry i think im rambling#I should go to bed =w=;;;#crying over a planet man#yes I listened to 'how far we've come' by matchbox twenty and keep replaying from 2:30 onward imagining stuff

Watched Wings (1927), the first ever winner for Best Picture. The straight agenda wins again womp womp
Remake it and give us the gay war love story we deserve.
All these years of seeing this clip and scene, I thought it was from one of the numerous queer films that got made before the Hays family ruined everything. Whole time, it's the best picture winner. My how far we have fallen.

Another time rift opens at the Everywhen Inn and an unlikely pair emerges.
Some hours earlier (relatively speaking):
#world of warcraft#Jadaar#Asric#Legion victorious timeline AU#or something like that#not the one where the Legion apparently won the War of the Ancients tho#high/blood elves wouldn't exist#maybe this is an AU that diverges at TBC#not sure if Jadaar was never a draenei in this AU or if he was forcibly converted to man'ari or smth#I haven't given it that much thought#though I HAVE given it more thought that it warrants#also surprise! bet you thought you'd seen the last of these guys from me#imagining alternate scenarios gets the creative juices flowing#lmao fixed a litle typo in the second to last picture but I fear it's too late

It wasnt with any instance in mind specifically but i have seen some great mhyk cisbends actually. And i love the idea of fem arthur! I hadnt considered faust or heathcliffe but im on board now! I saw a tweet once that said mithra should grow boobs in tiletta's honor and i support that... i suppose the post was made with enstars in mind cuz ive been thinking about cis girl izumi lately (he's nonbinary to me in canon but i think his rship with his mom in portrait wouldve been sooo interesting with the added layer of daughters turning into their mothers... im also fond of hetbending loiz but for it to be no different whatsoever from their canon rship. But i also think iz-mk-lo would be interesting had they All been girls...)
But i also think transgenderism in wizard world would be interesting to explore, not just imagining what if they had been cis girls. I wonder if trans humans resent wizards for having the ability to transform themselves... or if, like with curseworkers or doctors, there are wizards who specialize in giving humans hrt potions and surgeries. In a world where murr was into medicine he wouldve brought hrt to humans so they wouldnt have to rely on wizards...
mithra SHOULD have boobs in tiletta's honor tbh. In my mind, cisbent mithra would go from wearing no bras because she dgaf to wearing pushup bras as a way to carry on tiletta's legacy.
Also NONBINARY IZUMI TRUTHER, I SHAKE YOUR HANDS
Izumakoleo as all girls...omg your mind....we could have the best yuri how did no one else think of this. As expected of the president o7 i salute
And now onto wizard genders: we do know of a few wizards with funky gender in canon. They can use magic to shapeshift after all. Here are a few i can think of at the top of my head. Spoilers for ms2 for everyone else but i'm sure you don't mind lol
Figaro mentions having a friend that is born a wizard, shapeshifted into a witch and stayed like that, even ended up carrying a baby to term and giving birth
There's a western witch who presents exclusively as a wizard in front of humans in ms2. I never even thought about how human-wizard dynamics might affect genderfluidity but that sure is interesting
Rustica has been a transguy to me since reading ms2. Idk if i am the only one interpreting it as that but i swear there's a part i read as him having been a western princess. Because of that i like to imagine/headcanon chloe is also a trans guy and kept the feminine name rustica style.
Figaro, man. Figgy is just. SO painfully transfem like omggggg. Besides being so Eldest Daughterâ˘ď¸ coded in northfam, the ridiculous amount of times he's been like "btw if anyone wants to see me as a beautiful woman pls let me know" girl do YOU want to be a beautiful woman??? It's definitely in character for fifi to be a certain way and then try as hard as possible to hide it, perhaps even lying to oneself about one's true nature.
#There's also the fact that shapeshifting requires extra magic that needs to be kept up constantly. So like shapeshifters aren't like a-#blank canvas that can reset at any time and then paint a new picture everytime#more like there's one original picture but you can paint over the glass frame and wipe that and repeat as often as you'd like but the-#original is still there#And that leaves two possibilites for trans wizards#Constantly use magic#Or use altering surgery that changes your original body. Basically same as humans.#I would not want to have surgery in mhyk world ngl.#I keep thinking about alec losing an arm in war...accurate btw amputations were REALLY common back then#Before disinfectants and antibiotics were a thing#Better have no limbs than rotting limbs#What was i talking about again#Oh yeah wizard gender#Moral of the story: big tiddie mithra. Thank you.

Girl who has only been listening to three bands recently makes an OC
#kinda messy but finally got the pictures in my head out#there's this whole storyline I have about these two characters#one of which is he descendent of another character#who was in a relationship with an actual character who has a real story they're a part of#I've decided for all my stories to take place in the same world#anyway this will probably never become anything#basically she touches this star of indeterminate name#and sees these crazy truths of the universe learns things she never dreamed#and is left with so much knowledge crowding her brain#but the things he really wanted to know (where his parent left to what the end to the war will look like)#she doesn't get#so basically fundamentally irreversibly changed he is just consumed by this hunt to find the star again#the star leaves its mark as well leaving his appearance in that in between state#eventually she finds the star again and is granted this like terrible ominscence her former self completely erased#the god who sent the star sees this knowledge as a gift but really obv it's a curse and tears her close relationship apart#that's basically what the story is sad gays ofc bc it's based off cshr#this world is full of meddling gods and situations such as this#which is how the original original character ended up so messed up#yipee#kestrel calls#chitter chatter#mostly I just needed a character to think about when I listen to this music#so I just made some#kestrel doodles#undescribed
