Spouse is sick and hogging the TV, which means I can’t play Bloodborne.
Just found out there is a Switch version of Dark Souls

Yeah, a lot of what bothers me about fantasy settings (especially D&D) is that people try to run wizards like they're academics, but their only exposure to academics is authoritative professors telling them The Truth, so they don't realize that all academics are always 5 seconds away from trying to strangle each other over questions like 'does time really pass or does it just seem to pass'

man if I was a russian mob boss and my worthless layabout son killed baba yaga's dog I'd just fucking give him up. like immediately. like call john wick's secret basement landline and be like "iosef's at the club. all his goons and bodyguards have been instructed to stand down. there's a new puppy on your front porch. do you want an edible arrangement or anything"

Merlin: why are we searching for this Emrys guy again (*knows it's him*)
Arthur: BECAUSE, merlin, when I was born my father was given a prophecy. Emrys will guide the once and future king into bringing magic back! *Stops to point at Merlin* and we have to STOP them!!!

Prince Philip is the most badass prince EVER. And here's why.
Tumblr media
Okay, so he’s got a girly face, and he wears tights and some high boots. Sure.
But check out that noble steed. That’s one ready-to-kick-ass-and-take-names steed.
Tumblr media
While other princesses just run away and leave nothing, Philip gets AN INVITE TO HER HOUSE. He gets a song, a dance, and a first date.
Tumblr media
He comes home, just to tell his dad he’s not going to marry the princess because he’s in love.
No. Other. Reason. He rides in and is just like, “I met the girl I’m going to marry. Now I’ve got a birthday party to be at. Bye Dad.”
Now how much do you think his dad weighs? That short fat little man? Probably pretty heavy.Not a problem for Prince Philip.
Tumblr media
And then he gets jumped by goblins, both hands tied behind his back
Tumblr media
But that’s not enough to stop Prince Philip.Oh no.
He breaks his hands free and starts chucking goblins.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Look at that face. That face. The “BITCH JUST YOU WAIT” face. He may be tied down by a dozen goblins but he’s not gonna take no shit from this witch.
In fact, he’s so strong, she ends up keeping him chained to the wall, but he still fights back.
Tumblr media
Now when he finally does get free–
Tumblr media
He’s ready to go into battle UNARMED. He don’t need no shield or sword, he’s going to go punch Maleficent’s face in with his fist. If Flora didn’t stop him, he probably would have, too.
Tumblr media
Backed up against a cliff edge, nowhere to go. Fighting off goblins. But there’s so many and just one Philip.
NBD I’LL JUST JUMP AND SLIDE DOWN THE ROCK PILE IN MY SKIN-TIGHT TIGHTS.
Tumblr media
Gate closing?
Tumblr media
who gives a fuck? certainly not prince philip.
Tumblr media
Lighting hitting rocks around me?
Tumblr media
NBD BRO
Tumblr media
Giant forest of thorns?
Tumblr media
Bitch, get out of my way. I’ve got a princess to save.
Tumblr media
Giant dragon of hell?
Tumblr media
CHARGE HEAD ON.
Tumblr media
Fire? Dragon? Burning dry twigs? No. Fucking. Problem.
Tumblr media
Just smack that bitch on the nose.
Tumblr media
Sheer cliff face? Fire burning behind me? Back to a wall?
Tumblr media
Calm down guys, I got this.
Tumblr media
I’LL JUST FUCKING SCALE IT ONE-HANDED.
And fight the bloody beast from 500 feet high, with literally nothing to save me if I fall.
Tumblr media
Lose the shield off the cliff?
Tumblr media
JUST STAND THERE AND SMILE ‘CAUSE I’VE GOT A FUCKING MAGIC SWORD THAT’S GOING THROUGH YOUR HEART BITCH.
Tumblr media
Just chuck it. Straight through.
Tumblr media
Then jump out of the way…
Tumblr media
And survive. That’s what happens to bitches who mess with the woman I love.
Tumblr media
Get the horse.
Tumblr media
Get the girl.
Tumblr media
EXPLAIN NOTHING.
Tumblr media
that’s how he EARNED his happily ever after.
Srsly. The most bad. ass. prince. disney ever wrote.

Merlin: Why does everyone keep assuming we’re a couple?
Arthur: *Sitting in Merlin’s lap, playing with their hair*
Arthur: Beats me.

Might be a character flaw, but I think it’s part of why Vetinari is so good about planning for the weirdest circumstances. He takes “plan for the worst, hope for the best” to an extreme, and omits the second part entirely.
I’d agree that he plays up the “evil” bit though he’s not altruistic. I am of the opinion he became Patrician because he figured he could run the place better and did so as a proof-of-concept, and eventually became possessive of Ankh-Morpork. That’s HIS pile of Legos and you aren’t playing with them right!
Neither a power-hungry megalomaniac nor a Utopia-driven altruist, Vetinari is one of nature’s Project Managers.
90% of vetinari analysis ends at "hey maybe he Isn't an evil tyrant after all" and stops there like its the most groundbreaking thing on the planet. like yes. terry pratchett loves to subvert tropes. he is a subversion of a trope. do you have anything else
people figure That out and then go "this Must mean vetinari is the good and Necessary and Practical leader of ankh morpork!' which is insane. he is still a dictator. like this is not me writing a callout post about vetinari, i love this man, but you guys make him sooooo boring when you insist he's this perfect ruler.
and its really interesting that vetinari is this jaded, cynical man about humanity with destroyed idealism, whose coping mechanism is. capital punishment. he's putting on an act as an evil tyrant Yes but he's also sometimes kind of a dick for no reason. he tortures mimes because he thinks that's funny. he's funny. HES FUNNY.
he also fucks up a Ton in the books. He's not all knowing even if he likes people to think he is. He's literally stressing the hell out at the beginning of Guards! Guards! and Jingo.
like this may be something crazy. but i think believing humanity is this 'great rolling sea of evil' is in fact. kind of a character flaw.

I’ve only read the books, but the mental image of Kermit!Vimes leaving Vetenari’s office, pausing a moment, then giving the wall a “HI-YAH!” a’la Miss Piggy is utter perfection.
