Blake: "So, you slept with a major spirit while trapped in the Forever After-"

Jaune: "More 'was ripped apart and remade with something missing', but yeah."

Blake: "-And that child is the result?"

*The two turn to see a feral child wielding a sword, surrounded by Blackfang Wolf carcasses, looking borderline deranged.*

Jaune: "Yyyyep."

My jewish community, friends, rabbi, and educators: We are very invested in helping you be jewish. Do you want to help read the haftarah? Here's a chanukiah! You can have it!! Borrow these books! Here's some books! You need more books... Come to pesach! Come to the chanukah party! When are your classes done? We need a minyan for once!

Me and my 50000 IQ: What if I am Secretly Appropriating judaism? What if I am doing a Cultural Appropriation........

Doing another poll!! This time is about something similar to the last one I did but with a more fun purpose (at least imo :^)

Which one of the trio is your favorite and why?

The reasons can be optional. You don't need to add them if you wanna.

My main goal on this is just to interact more with others and to know why some like these silly whimsical fellas, is it their personality, is it because of comfort, is it because you relate to them, is it because you have a silly crush on one of them (not judging you :]) or just for no reason! It's always fun to see people loving a character :>

"oh yeah my old friend suddenly moved in with me and keeps saying we're engaged because he proposed to me once when we were kids and he started cooking elaborate dinners and jerked me off that one time but only to help me sleep and yeah he told me hes gay but dont worry hes just trying to be a good roommate since i'm letting him stay at my place for a bit until his boss recovers" -hiro, probably

Sometimes I wish people didn't read into the Steam vs Diesel rivalry (or towards any coach/rolling stock for that matter too) as "racism" because even if they are engines, it just feels very reductive to sum it up as easy as "oh so it's a race war between them and they're trying to outlast each other".

Their issues could easily be interpreted as something else like classism, ageism (both young and old) or any kind of social or structural form of discrimination that doesn't have anything to do with race or identity.

I’ve been seeing some stuff that Predathos isn’t why Molaesmyr was corrupted, it was Ludinus messing with the natural energy and Aeor tech which caused the corruption. I’ve been looking through the wiki but it’s not that detailed, but did Matt say that it was Ludinus messing with stuff and not that Predathos is a corrupting influence? (I’ll go listen to prev eps but not sure where I should start from. )

So if I recall the episodes that covered this were 3x55-3x58 (ie, when Team Wildemount were in Molaesmyr) and then you can kind of put the story together from Barthie and Rashinna's retellings and some of the things Ludinus himself had said from the 80s and 90s of C3. To sum things up:

In 585 PD Ludinus tapped into some source of power within Molaesmyr in order to contact Predathos during the apogee solstice. This is unambiguously the case. This may have been a natural source or may have been a fragment of Aeor. Regardless, in doing so he unleashed a dangerous poisonous magic within Molaesmyr, killing countless people and leaving the rest without a home. It is similarly unknown whether or not this result was simply the result of Ludinus drawing on the power source excessively such that it triggered it in some way, or Predathos's influence, or some combination of the two.

I can't speak to everyone but my personal feelings about Predathos as a threat aren't "this is a corrupting influence" (though the dampening healing magic and stealing it for itself isn't like, great). My thoughts re Molaesmyr are:

If your argument is that Aeor was a senseless loss of life and the gods should die, and you don't think that Molaesmyr was a senseless loss of life and Ludinus Da'leth should die, what exactly makes the former more heinous than the latter? Answer at length, because right now I think anyone who cries over Aeor and not Molaesmyr is either particularly unintelligent or particularly hypocritical.

I think Predathos will probably not specifically target mortals. That does not mean its unleashing to go after the gods would not necessarily result in mass death. The fact that it can't see people means it has no care for people in the way. (it also does seem to be completely able, at least in its prior form, to specifically attack individuals attacking it or drain their healing, so, you know, I think it can certainly SENSE mortals in some capacity). Like, does it matter if you die of being consumed out of malice vs. consumed out of hunger vs. standing too close to a source of deadly high radiation vs. standing too close to a source of "your meds suddenly stop working" vs. getting stepped on by something too vast to see you? you're still dead in every scenario.

To the previous point, if someone says "hmmm, I just don't know what this thing can do and but I do know that this entity's followers have pretty much all been violent imperialists and that communing with it caused mass death and unending environmental destruction" and presses a button, are they not responsible for that action"?

finnish cats shenanigans are always my favourite but especially on sasha cup day with the cup involved the hijinks ramp up to 100 lmaooo

"wheres my- (realising sasha is in front of him and quickly stutters to change it to our so he doesnt get wacked over the head) wheres our names?"

(luosty proceeds to cackle in the bg like the shit stirrer he is realising lundys slip of the tongue and if he noticed sasha definitely noticed)

"wheres my name? wheres my name ☺️?" and it was at that moment lundy knew he fucked up

it never ceases to endlessly entertain me how much of a punk lundy can be and im so glad sasha is here to put him in his place because sheesh this kid sometimes XD

"and then luosty but i didnt want to give it to him but he took it" eh? is that so? who couldve guessed???

environmental storytelling, captain said haha okay mine now its mine let go ☺️💢

isn’t it so weird that cats- the show where you have to interpret certain aspects to create your understanding of the world, its characters, and relationships

has a fandom subgenre that just loves shitting on “wrong” interpretations because they don’t agree with it or like it.

if dorian didn't show up, do you think louis would have shot minnie?

I do. I know some people think either he wouldn't have or he would've missed so that's why the writers had him shoot Dorian instead, but mmmmmm no, I don't personally think so. I like to think that if he had taken the shot, his shaky hands would've caused him to shoot her fatally.

Mostly because I'm already so normal about the fact that of the Ericson crew, Marlon and Louis are the only ones with a body count. Well, that we know of, but shown to us in the game, at least. Plus, we know it's Louis' first kill.

Like yeah, Clementine and AJ become part of the crew and they have bigger body counts, and if we're counting indirect kills caused by actions, then Tenn has a count... and I guess everyone has blood on their hands for blowing up the boat... but I'm talking about killed directly with a weapon like....... I lied, I'm not normal about that at all, Louis and Marlon are the ones who have killed someone in Louis' route. I'm also not normal about the fact that Louis kills Dorian and then even as he's clearly in shock, he tries to go with Clementine to get AJ, and then later on when they talk about it, he says it feels like bile but not quite and he's glad he has it in him to do it.... listen, listen, listen... I'm obsessed with that.

Anyway, so if Louis shot Minerva, I think he would've accidentally killed her and can you imagine? He's already enough of a mess after killing the woman who pinned him down and tried to cut his finger off [or succeeded] but he knew Minerva, they were friends before the twins were taken. Even Violet couldn't kill her even though that would've been the smarter thing to do, and we know thanks to meta knowledge that killing her would've saved lives, but Violet couldn't, and I don't think Louis would intentionally either.

Speaking of Violet, if Louis killed Minerva, I hate to think about what that would've done to Vi. I think she might've actually left at that point, like what was planned before it got changed to her being burned. I don't think she would've attacked Louis over it, though, like yeah she attacked Clementine in the cell but Louis? I don't know, but I don't think so just because it's Louis and he'd be a mess about it anyway.

Though if he did kill her, it would be a neat parallel to draw... y'know, because Louis forgave AJ for killing Marlon even though he was pissed and heartbroken, and Violet was annoyed with him the entire time... but could she ever forgive Louis for killing Minerva? Y'know? We already have a similar parallel with AJ shooting Tenn, but still.

If Clementine killed Minerva in that moment, though, then I could see Violet attacking her since in her eyes, Clem proved her right.

So yeah, I get why they added the Dorian kill to his route. It adds another compelling element to Louis as a character, but we also need Minerva alive for episode 4; Louis can't kill her, he can't miss, and he's not going to stay with her because we need Violet to stay on the boat and him to be on shore for all routes.

@pouroverpaloma thank you for the tag!!

Rules: in a new post, show the last line you wrote (or drew) and tag as many people as there are words (or as many as you like).

The warm brown of his eye was nearly swallowed up by its black pupil, “We shouldn’t do this here,” he rasped, his chest rising and falling rapidly beneath her hands, “I’m sorry, I…I wanted to do this differently, properly.”

I write way too long of sentences to tag as many people as there are words lol but I will tag @hauntedliz @galaxycunt @serial-chillr @sleketon666 and @forget-me-maybe and whoever else wants to share!!!

sometimes you have a good and well thought out idea for a fic and sometimes you are just like this concept is best expressed as a series of ao3 tags for something you will probably never write
