Update on the future, TWO!
Tumblr media
Ok these ones are so far in the future they don’t have names yet and nothing is set in stone. They had some concept art but Maro stressed they are literally still working on these so stuff can still change so mostly these are the teasiest of teasers
Tennis
Death-race set. So like my best comparison is Petals to the Metal in Adventure Zone 😅 Neat thing though, because of the Omenpaths, this race/set takes place across 3 planes. Two are planes we’ve been to on premier sets before and the third is one that has been on cards but we haven’t actually been there yet. So 👀 Feels like a potentially good return for Kaladesh? Also maybe Kamigawa again? Idk about the plane we haven’t officially been to before.
Ultimate (Frisbee)
I have made my posts so I’m gonna be so normal here I swear. Return to Tarkir. Design philosophy, “best of both worlds” (dragons and khans!!!) Ahem yes. That is what this is about.
Volleyball
Tumblr media
Top down space opera set. I’m intrigued. The concept art was pretty nifty and I mean, Unfinity showed us that space lands can fuck severely. Between cyberpunk Kamigawa and Unfinity I am way more receptive to this than I might have been a few years ago. I don’t know the actual “space opera” trope specifically so IDK have an opinion there much, but still. I’m excited magic is exploring new ground.
Wrestling
We’re going back to Lorwyn/Shadowmoor baybeeee! I’ve never been there and I’m excited to go. I’m excited to see the new twists! :D
Yachting
Back to school season! We be going to Arcavios (Strixhaven)
Ziplining
Capstone/end set. It’s the finale of the 3-year story arc starting with Wilds of Eldraine. The giant storyline is split into 3 mini arcs, Omenpath Arc, Dragonstorm Arc, and [Redacted] Arc. Being compared to War of the Spark and March of the Machine. We don’t know anything else about this set. Kinda neat that the next big arc ends with the alphabet keywords. It will truly be a fresh start with the next A xD.
Wow ok so 3 years ahead in magic. These last few Maro said were still in vision design, wild to see so far ahead. There’s a lot of potential here! I’m curious to see how it all goes :D

WIP WHENEVER I WANT BAYBEEEE
So I got tagged by both @sacrecoeur-art and @wanderingaldecaldo now I gotta post some WIPs! I have 4 for y'all today. They're all short and from different fandoms. We've got Dishonored, Cyberpunk, and Dragon Age. And finally, there's some very unfinished f/f erotica that I need the motivation to finish. So heads up this will be a little NSFW. And these are all largely unedited so there will be grammar and spelling mistakes.
I'm tagging @hawkward-silence, @beaubambabey, @pinkdemidevil, and fuck it @stenography69
Okay first we got a Cyberpunk 2077 SilverV post-game piece I started the first time I finished the game back in 2021
            Johnny didn’t know where he would end up, he just knew he needed to get out of Night City. It stood like a monument to all of his mistakes and successes, both of which he wanted to forget. It was time to move on. Time to find out who he was now besides just having a different face. Reev had given him a second chance; he wasn’t going to waste that.             His bus dropped Johnny off in Nevada, just outside of the still-bustling-after-50-years Las Vegas; it didn’t surprise him, considering how capitalism was alive and well in Night City. Good for Johnny, he could use a drink. Or a few. “Not a great new start,” He thought, sitting in a shitty bar at 3pm. Were those his thoughts? They had to be, because the only thing left of Reev was his face, right? He hoped that maybe some amount of Reev still rattling around inside his brain, like the metal inside of a spray paint can. Johnny pulled his hair out from its up-do and fluffed it out, letting out a heavy sigh. He wanted it to be V, truthfully. Someone else’s turn to be the guardian angel, so to speak. “You give yourself too much credit.”
Next is Dishonored! This was inspired by the fact that I got the bad ending of the game, so I wanted to write about Corvo dealing with all the killing he's doing.
            Corvo silently pushed the door open as Jasper, another Overseer, was taunting Teague Martin, who was in the stocks dead center of Holger Square. Jasper didn’t stand a chance as Corvo snuck up behind him and choked him out, letting the man tumble onto the ground unconscious. Part of his mission was to rescue the Teague, who was of use to the Loyalists, so Corvo pulled the switch and released him. He vaguely listened as Martin thanked him and said he would see him later, but Corvo was hardly listening, he was planning his next move.  The rain poured down Corvo’s back as Overseer Martin escaped to freedom behind him. As he scanned the area for where he would go next -I should be able to jump up there-, he saw a wanted poster with his face on it; The face that was now hidden from the people of Dunwall for his own safety and to put fear in anyone that caught a glimpse of his mask. But it wasn’t his own face that he was troubled by. It was the face of Jessamine. Corvo could hardly move from the spot as his clothes grew heavy with rain from the growing storm, sidelined by the memory of the woman he loved. The Heart beat softly in the safe spot Corvo kept it. He didn’t really know what to make of it.             It hurt Corvo’s soul that he would have to see Jessamine killed in front of him, powerless to stop it from happening, but now he was framed for it. Every time he thought about it, it angered him. Corvo cared and believed in Jessamine, he never dreamed of hurting her. He didn’t realize how hard his own heart was beating at that moment.             Silently, Corvo pulled the wanted poster off the wall and blinked away to finish his mission, to make Campbell pay for the things he had done to the lives of himself, Jessamine, and Emily. And to all the people of Dunwall he was misleading.
So my girlfirend and I ship Marian Hawke and the Lavellen inquisitor from Dragon Age. Here's a little of those two meeting.
            I knew I was screwed the moment I met her. It wasn’t long after I had broken it off with Isabella, mutually, of course; She wanted to roam the seas, and I still had important things to do. That didn’t mean I was any less lonely. Varric introduced the two of us. I already knew she was the “Inquisitor” or the “Harold of Andraste” or the dozen other nicknames different factions gave her. She introduced herself as Sena Lavellan, none of those other names. She was so much shorter than me and faintly green. Sena smelled like paper, rain, and sweet grass. When we were apart, I always remembered that smell.             After all the business about the Grey Warden I knew, I got to talk to Sena a little while we walked out to the grounds of Skyhold.             “Looks like you’ve got your work cut out for you, rebuilding this place,” I said, trying to make conversation.             Sena let out a soft sigh as she floated to the bottom of the stairs, “I do. But I’m going to make it work.”             My heart skipped a beat, but I carried on. I thought Sena was beautiful the moment I saw her. Then again, I have that thought about most women. A beautiful woman could convince me to do just about anything. “You’re determined, I like that. Do you mind showing me around?”             Sena nodded and explained that she was on her way go drinking with the Chargers, “Would you like to come? I can show you around after that.”             “What better way to get to know people than drinking, right?”
And the final piece is a bit of erotica I was writing for submission. I never got a chance to finish it but I like it anyway and maybe I'll finish it off. It's about a lesbian trucker and her feral kitty girl. Use of the words "daddy" and "kitten" included. text messages are bold and italics because I can't change paragraph alignment on tumblr.
            I haven’t seen my feral kitten in months. It’s par for the course—Gabi traveled around the US, not being tied down to one location for more than a week. That didn’t matter, I did the same thing. Driving a big rig took me all over the US too. So, when our path’s crossed, we’d shut ourselves in a hotel for a couple of days where she’d go strap hungry and I fuck her till her brain was mush. Inevitably, she split at 3am before I even woke up. Gabi insisted on keeping it casual.             Problem was, I wanted my kitty full time. I wanted Gabi curled up on the bed in my sleeper-cab wearing my big t-shirts, wanted to take her to old road side attractions, and I desperately wanted to give her butch cock under the night sky till she was seeing stars. I woke up so fucking horny, but some dick head parked next to me at the rest stop was blasting shitty country music—if it was good country, at last I could’ve day dreamed about Gabi wearing a cowboy hats and nothing else. Briefly, I thought about kicking his ass, but it wasn’t worth it. I wanted a mini vacation, so I hit Gabi with a text. hey kitten what state u in?             Unless she was in place with no reception, there was no reason for her not to answer me; I was the one paying her phone bill. And I have valid reasons for doing that. I got worried about her running around without any way to contact somebody if she got in trouble. Bonus was she liked to send me filthy photos from time to time—stuff to keep me going when we didn’t see each other.             I threw on a white t-shirt, rolled blue jeans, and boots before hoping out of my rig to get myself a quick breakfast—this stop made these amazing huevos rancheros, which saved my ass a couple of times when I’d gotten a massive hangover from a drunk night with a couple of follow truck drivers. While I watched the cook perfectly make a sunny side up egg, my phone buzzed in my pocket—Gabi texted back. She’d sent me a photo of herself holding a mug, her blond hair a mess. Texas! i’m crashing at a friend’s house what about you daddy? Lucky me, I’m in Texas too Are you in Austin again?

SHANG-CHI (2021) Review Pt. 1
Woooo I admit I was more hyped for this film than I had any right to be. Hyped and nervous. This was the media piece that had the potential to be the first "good" piece of Asian-American representation in a long time. It seemed things were falling in place: they got a Chinese-American dude to play the lead. They got a Chinese acting legend to play the villain. Asian-American women for strong supporting roles. They had an Asian-American director. Loads of Asian stunt actors and coordinators. Asian-American musicians for the soundtrack. But still...
I was nervous because of the narrative arc I glossed from the trailers. I expected it to be another american-child-beats-traditionalist-parent story, where the new American experience conflicts with and overcomes the evil (and weird) native heritage. It seemed that's what Shang-Chi, the American boy, would do to his ancient Chinese father. I was very glad that was not the case.
The relationship between Shang-Chi and Wenwu, and the two of them to Shang-Chi's mother, is the central component of the movie, and I was glad it was well written and acted to be very compelling. I greatly enjoyed the two parallel internal conflicts, though I have issue with how they were resolved. Wenwu was a ruthless immortal warlord, but gave it up for the wife, cuz that's the power of love baybeeee. Unfortunately, is past beefs catch up to him and his family, and return him to his old ways...but not completely I think, because now, he loves his son. And Shang-Chi, despite being trained into living weapon, loves him back, though hates him for making him kill. Their fight at the climax is a culmination of their sadness and rage, using the more violent style (Shaolin I think?). Wenwu is a master of this style, and so overcomes his son with it and nearly kills him. This is completely counter to Wenwu's goal of reuniting the family, really showing how far he's gone. Shang-Chi ultimately uses his mother's Tai Chi-based style to defeat his father, and spares him, telling Wenwu to let go and accept his wife's death. *Chef's kiss* delicious, and nearly perfect.
And then comes the dumb CGI monster ...
I actually like that the Ten Rings are directly tied to the evil supernatural monster, and that the monster manipulates Wenwu with his grief. However, I don't like that the monster's physical form is Western-style giant ugly bat thing. Actually I don't like that the monster has a physical form at all. I think it should've been some evil spirit that takes the form of the mom, and then possesses Wenwu via the Ten Rings. Possessed Wenwu and Shang-Chi would then duke it out...ok that would be a detailed rewrite, I will stick with a review. The big CGI monster was dumb. The smaller CGI monsters were also dumb. And the dragon...ok I think the dragon was dumb too. There were a lot better ways to "revive" Shang-Chi after getting beat up initially. It had no character, and no big plot connection. The climax should've been purely emotional kungfu, not a messy CGI hurricane.
Now onto the secondary characters.
I think Xialing and Shang-Chi's relationship was powerful and weighty, but wasn't given enough time, and wasn't resolved that great. Being on a flying dragon and "letting go", is not nearly the same as abandoning her for 10 years. They needed a real heart-to-heart, where they practice kung fu together. In addition, Xialing should've been there to confront Wenwu; after all, he is her dad also. And Wenwu should've acknowledged her too, after shunning her for so long. Damn!
Katy was...funny but she felt more and more extraneous as the movie went on, mostly serving to provide funny reactions. The old lady telling her to "aim for one thing" as a resolution to her main internal issue (fear of failure), felt cheap, like a checked box. Can't we leave that for the next movie? She did give us some of the funniest and relatable bits as a Chinese-American, such as when Ronnie Chieng said "Oh I don't worry I speak ABC", or when Wenwu assumed the warm-but-stern-friends-dad role to her, or the pronunciation struggle on the plane. She didn't have much role in Shang-Chi's character arc, except for serving as the audience for Shang-Chi to reveal his big secret to.
Ok I'm getting really bothered by "Shang-Chi" with the dash and double capital letters. The other characters all use pinyin format, and it's just weird for Shang-Chi to remain in the archaic romanization. Which is...a bit emblematic. Hm...
My main complaint for Ying Li (the mom) was she seemed too...angelic. Her scene with the young Shang-Chi seemed like something out of a mainland Chinese television commercial. But maybe it's appropriate, since she's dead, and that's how everyone remembers her? The way she died, face-up, no visible injuries, with a still-spotless white wushu uniform, was kinda...funny almost. The situation of a bunch of normally dressed gang members strolling into a mansion garden, fighting a wushu-garbed woman...also kinda funny. Her chemistry with Wenwu though, damn. That was some classic kungfu flirting.
Razorfist was funny. "That's my car!", him getting his life saved and accepting truce, him taking the blade off of a dragon-scale sword, all good moments. I'll allow him as the token diversity.
Oh I nearly forgot about Trevor Slattery. Yeah I'll allow him too, he and Morris were unobtrusively funny.
Death Dealer was done dirty. Such a cool design, and he's the first to die pathetically to the gross tentacle bats.
A dumb thing: I actually thought Michelle Yeoh would be the aged-up Fala Chen, because from the trailers I was under the impression Yeoh would be Shang-Chi's mom. Of her character, I liked her important role in helping Shang-Chi connect with his mom's memory, but I feel she should've been introduced earlier.
That's it for the story and character notes. Second Part will be about the meta stuff, like representation, orientalism, casting, etc.

okay so... im thinking i want to figure out my pitch for the game before i do the essay, just because i know i can write that fairly easy, sort of, im a very wordy bitch and im sure i can pull something out of my ass. ive got a whole weekend for it. its fine. sunday at midnight baybeeee
so. game ideas! twine game ideas!
- BtH, of a sort. I think the core idea of a ship going sailing and having some choices to make, like for instance whether you decide to support a God Damn mutiny, is like... there is stuff there. easily got branches that end prematurely with you getting thrown overboard for being a shit, yknow? idk. i kinda wanna keep BtH for, you know, BtH. with the whole tying in to atlantis and the abravost dragon and stuff. the scope of the actual bth is too big for a 1000 word twine game sooooo wheeeeeEEEEE
- yknow what i could resurrect? TFOS. Basically it was a rough story thing I knocked up to justify my yr 12 vis comm project, and it was just ‘a bunch of girls fight dragons’ except that the ranger character, who was the main protagonist and the crown princess, had a fucking rifle. but the knight was still a knight with armour and a sword, which was mostly for rule of cool reasons, because i wanted to draw armour for the first and so far Only time (huh) and thats really it. but! i could possibly take that idea of hunting dragons with rifles and expand it. and keep the princess protag.
    Basically what it would be is we take the basic character of Sofia (was that her name? jesus christ its been 2 whole years), a princess who wants to hunt dragons as a combination revenge thing and ‘protecting her kingdom’ thing, and play up the angle of her conflict against like, her family, and what she is expected to do as the crown princess of a country (aka sit back and say a bunch of stuff and let other people make it happen). and the players choice would determine whether she succeeds in hunting this one dragon, or fails. and failure would, narratively, prove her family right - that she shouldnt have been doing it. and there are many options for failure, branches which go on for a few pages before revealing they were doomed from the start, but theres also that one golden chance where if she plays her cards just right, she can prove them wrong. that if you can do something to make a situation better, you SHOULD. even if you fail. that would i guess be the thesis. there could also be minor success endings where she survives but her allies (who probably wouldnt be the Very Gay TFOS cast because they have a Lot going on that would overcomplicate whats going on) dont, or even vice versa, where her actions get her killed but save her friends and do ultimately result in the dragons death.
now that ive written that much about it i think it could work. what do i want to achieve with it? fuck of a question! i want to pass the class, frankly, but other than that i guess its like, idk, a story about knowing when to act. theres probably some early less-essential choices (like that dont create full branches, as in the fight with the dragon) which can highlight how sometimes you gotta play your cards right. maybe it does create mild branches later. i dont know how twine Works so i dont THINK i can actually do that? like store a value to pop an extra choice later. im thinking in terms of bigger games lmao i always am.
but yea! a princess sneaking out of the castle to fight a dragon. presumably the story starts with her being caught doing so, like you get her attempting to leave the castle and being caught by one of the guards (who maybe later helps her escape once they know whats up? fuck yea) or in like, a minor action-y bit where she has SUCCESSFULLY gotten out, and is on the hunt for a very small dragon, when the royal palace, having been alerted to her absence, fucking stoooorms in and intervenes before she can actually do anything, with the choices not forming full branches so you dont actually know how it would end. she would insist she had it under control regardless of what you picked. i dont know! i think the core concept of ‘princess sneaks out to fight dragon With Gun’ is excellent so thats what im gonna pitch, and hopefully whoever i end up paired with likes the idea. if thats not what we end up going with, thats okay, maybe this will come back one day :P
