Spitelout hate is interesting to me. like, not saying he Doesn't deserve it, but also I feel like ppl should think abt how he's a bad parent for the same reason Stoick wasn't a good one and take into account the way the older generations of Berk were raised etc etc

Something weirdly specific for at least some of us, that we've had in mind for awhile; unfortunately this was the closest we could get with a picrew tbh.

× × × || × × × || × × ×

Like, fortunately for us; while we have some things that irk us with this one, but this hits pretty close in a metaphorical sense at least for the people we're thinking of. Unfortunately for us, some of those are more obvious than others so we hesitated on weather we needed to share this or not LOL.

tbh i think kaeya's "choice" mentioned in mona's voiceline for him isn't picking between mond and Khaenriah but rather whether he wants to follow the path set for him by fate (or by that "inept god" one could say) or not

Ugh gonna dump my thoughts here for a moment about robots.

I just watched Mars Express, I liked it overall. It felt like thematically it took alot of queues from Ghost in the Shell and evolved and updated alot of its ideas, as well as Blade Runner 2049 (with the stories wide variety of robot types and other world building tidbits). Those stories all have very nuanced presentations of robots, as the synthetic reproduction of life is shown to be just as sentient as human life throughout the story (regardless if it's ai or a robot or synthetic or some other combo of organic/inorganic parts), but the main conflict/narrarive actively shows how the old human order is bent of subjecting them as well as the already existing human population. And the stories aren't meant to be uplifting, they are most often very, very sad, and operate more as cautionary tales. With Blade Runner 2049 and Mars Express basically showing that old human ways (like capitalism, greed, and the inability to recognize each other's shared humanity) is the downfall of not only humans, but provides continual suffering to those on the outskirts of human civilization (human or robot). That's such a neat theme, it's one of my favorite explorations of human sentience, but I've kinda hit a bit of a roadblock. 1.) I'm getting a bit tired of it always ending so sad. Not that I cant handle sad or bittersweet endings. However I just feel like the nihilistic approach is the default currently. All these pieces bring up these issues and instead of even offering glimpses of a solution to the problems it proposes, the narrative does the equivalent of just laying down and dying, just accepting the fate of humanity and our descendants to be doomed by our current short comings. Its a fine message for your story, its just getting overplayed to the point of frustration. And 2.) I'm not agaisnt fictional cop stories but can any of these cyberpunk/future dystopia with ai/robots/synthetic humans or whatever please have a perspective that isn't cop drama. Like obviously law enforcement is gonna come into play if you wanna explore these fictional societies' rules and laws and where their morals fail or succeed,etc etc, but like. Can we see the robots/ai/synth perspective more? I'm sick of it being some meat head human who's like on stage 1 of scifi ideas still questioning robot sentience when the robots/cool humans are already addressing much more pressing issues like what it means to be alive or some shit. Like I'm sick of the audience POV protag being so basic.

Tldr I love these stories I brought up a lot, and the world's have so much potential for moral dilemmas and stories but it's always the same cop detective stuff that never fully adresses the common person's experience in that reality, which is the most interesting stuff in those stories, as well as always defaulting to the most nihilistic outlook.
