OH MY GODDDD ITS HAPPENING EVERYONE CALM DOWN

honestly just in general it's very exhausting to try to analyze media that is literally meant to be analyzed, only for the replies to be filled with people arguing not against your analysis, but against the premise that the media can be analyzed at all.

i don't even know what to say about it without starting to really betray my frustration, so i'll just settle with— just don't engage with analysis posts? I'm serious. if you're typing a response to a media analysis post, reread what you've written and ask yourself "is this comment/response against the very concept of analyzing the media at all?" and if the answer is yes then delete it all and go sit in the shame corner. throw your curtains away if you want to so bad and stop telling me that I'm not allowed to hum and haw at the fact mine are blue

Remember when Life is Strange was a singular game about a young woman with the ability to rewind and manipulate time as a clever metaphor for talking about changing one's past regrets? The power was incidental to the story, it existed thematically as a way to delve into Max's character and how she regrets how she treated Chloe in the past. More importantly, how she comes to regret how she interacts with people in general and her struggle to connect to others. It wasn't because "OH NEAT SUPER POWERED GIRL" it was just a clever story telling mechanism that related to the major themes of the game.

When you're recommending something you really, REALLY like to someone and being IncrediblyNormal™ doesn't work out, so you have to resort to being ALittleUnhinged™ to get the point across.

look whatever happens in S2 with Viktor I just need to see him in a proper, flashy, aggressive, messy-ass, cinematic, pure Arcane-style fight scene.

I need to see him fuck someone up. I wanna see his war face. I wanna hear him scream out incomprehensible animalistic sounds that could be taken as either sobs or laughter, perhaps both. I wanna see missiles and rockets and death rays galore. I wanna see his nose bloody and his hair a mess and probably his eyes going all magicky glowy purple. I wanna get a bemused yet sad smile between him and Jayce as they ready their weaponry and prepare to burn away the last shreds of their shared affection in the heat of battle. I want Viktor to lose himself in his rage one last time before he tears away his humanity.

Whether we get a classic Machine Herald or something new on the more mystical side... LET VIKTOR FIGHT SOMEONE PLEASZE I BEG

already seeing people say that gen 10 should be a huge game with every region and this talk is causing me so much physical pain

you are going to kill the devs

you are going to make your switch explode

there is absolutely a thing as a pokemon game being too big for its own good (<- reborn and rejuvenation player). this would be like that but tenfold

[ID: a digital comic based on the owl house, featuring Hunter and Willow. The comic is a redraw of the "alphabet confession" meme comic. In the first panel, Hunter stands nervously in front of Willow, saying "I..". The next panel is a closeup of Hunter as he continues, saying "I...I" with an intense expression. In the third panel Hunter stops and looks suprised as Willow (partly off screen) continues, saying "J, K, L, M, N, O, P...". The next panel is a closeup of Willow, somewhat bashful, continuing listing the alphabet, now on "Q, R, S, T, U, V...". The penultimate panel is a closeup of Hunter as he finishes off the alphabet for her, saying "W, X, Y, and Z". He looks equally bashful. The final panel shows Hunter and Willow holding each other and seemingly spinning in mid air as flower petals circle around them. The comic is in black and white with the gutters between panels being light pink, and Hunter and Willow are both in their post-thanks to them designs. End ID]

HAPPY 1 WEEK TIL FOR THE FUTURE! Here's a silly comic idea that would not leave my head <3 they are so fucking stupid

galadriel x sauron has awoken something in me and i need them to kiss i fear

[just-null]

i have come here to personally thank you for giving me more than i asked for 🙏🏻 i am utterly grateful like IDJFKDKKFODOD 🧎‍♀️🧎‍♀️🧎‍♀️ it made me so happy the last doodle has my heart he is so cute i will eat him

also there is a DROUGHT out there for us noritoshi fans like im living on CRUMBS its insane and omg dont even talk to me abt how it feels like to be a kashimo and ino lover (altho they are getting a bit more love now) my nori is still underrated :/ sooo hence im asking ur hand in friendship and in exchange i promise to share my hcs with you abt nori my sweet lil meow meow we're in this together 💪🏻💪🏻

also since its October, do you think he likes horror movies? i feel like he can withstand gory movies but its the jumpscares that get him and he wont tell u he's scared when u watch one with jumpscares owkfkdkd imagine him hiding his face against ur shoulder or something 😭😭😭 (i used to do that with my dad when we watched horror movies and i used to be like im not scared😤😤 when he asked if i was lmfao thats where this hc stemmed from)

N. NORITOSHI HIDING IN YOUR SHOULDER OR SUPPRESSING HIS REACTIONS TO THE JUMPSCARES....... WAS IT AN INVOLUNTARY REACTION TO USE YOU TO HIDE??????? WAS IT BUILT UP TRUST????? DID HE GROW USED TO HOLDING ONTO YOU WHEN HE GETS SURPRISED BECAUSE HE WANTS TO MAKE SURE HE HAS HIS VALUABLES SAFE????????? WAS IT A MOMENT WHERE HIS MIND JUST INSTINCTIVELY GRABBED THE FIRST THING HE WANTED TO PROTECT/BE PROTECTED BY???????? OH MY FUCK.

he's probably used to gore and gritty stuff like that since he sees it often being a jujutsu sorcerer and all. not to mention his technique is literally blood. maybe he's desensitized to gore films, the most you'll get from him is a disgusted scowl.

BUT DID YOU SEE HOW QUICK HIS EYE OPENED WHEN HANAMI SHOWED UP BEHIND HIM. YOURE SO FUCKING FR ABT JUMPSCARES. Noritoshi is that guy who wouldn't scream or yelp but gasp really loudly and jump out of his skin.

i feel like they get him most in horror because of the music building up anticipation. if its one of those fake outs where the jumpscare comes a bit after, he's fucked UP. It makes him instantly miffed, as he tries to regain his composure. He swears he's not usually like this, it got him by surprise is all..!

Noritoshi is the type that'd only watch a horror movie if the story is rich and complex. He's the type of guy to like open endings that make you think.. if it's a guilty pleasure movie where all the protags make stupid decisions, he gets annoyed right off the bat.

He's groaning and complaining about how imbecile the characters are, but would still watch it with you because you personally invited him. If he's lucky you could fall asleep on his shoulder or [insert movie cliche here] how could he pass that up? But Noritoshi wouldn't be able to focus on you if he gets twice as annoyed because its a bad movie + jumpscares. it still startles him, but the movie is so terrible, he's embarrassed it got him, especially in front of you!!!

if you get involved and you tell him to quiet down, Noritoshi would shift his focus towards you. like that awkward guy who thinks he's being smooth and lowkey about how he cuddles up next to you. He wants to be the tough guy who's shoulder you can hide in, and he is!! just not.. with jumpscares.......

Warning: Genshin 3.6 Leaks

Here's a video of Kaveh's charged attack.

Source: This post on GI Leaks reddit. His NA is leaked there too.

This once again got me thinking about the differences between Kaveh and Alhaitham's ideologies.

Alhaitham's attacks are rough and forceful, while Kaveh's attacks are smooth and effortless. This is in stark contrast to their ideologies. Alhaitham promotes exerting effort only as much as needed, in fact, he prefers exerting as little effort as possible so long as the goal is achieved. Kaveh on the other hand believes in putting in as much effort as possible to maximise the quality of the end result. Yet their attack styles and patterns completely contradict their respective beliefs. Also note that Alhaitham wields a sword and Kaveh a claymore, which means that ideally Alhaitham would be applying much less force than Kaveh would while attacking.

I'm not sure what this means lore-wise. Maybe I'm looking into this too deeply. It could just be that Kaveh is an enjoyer of the aesthetics and likes to fight elegantly, and Alhaitham simply learned to fight more vigorously. In any case, I found the layers of contrast really interesting and worth sharing.

OR maybe I'm not looking deep enough and there's a lot more to it, in which case please reblog or comment or tag with your thoughts because these two blorbos never leave my brain anyway so I might as well indulge.
