Public Domain cartoon characters from Golden Age comic books
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Mickey Mouse, Winnie the Pooh, and Oswald the Lucky Rabbit going (mostly) into the public domain is a pretty big deal. In the next ten years a lot of animation from the 1930s will wind up in the hands of all artists who want to use them. But did you know there's a huge amount of cartoon characters from the 1940s that are totally free to use? It isn't just cartoons that starred on the silver screen that have fallen out of copyright. (Of course, I'm using the word "cartoon" somewhat loosely...)
See, when US copyright law was revised in 1976 and went into effect in 1978, works created before 1964 were required to have their copyright renewed before the end of 1980, or else they would become public domain. Hundreds if not thousands of Hollywood movies and other types of media had been made by studios and publishing companies that went bankrupt and were completely dissolved decades prior to this new law. This included the cartoons made by studios such as Bray, Van Beuren, and many others- but it also included comic books.
If you weren't a big comic book company like DC or Marvel, chances are you shuttered your doors sometime in the 1950s or early 1960s. And during the 1940s, with the rise in popularity of Looney Tunes, Woody Woodpecker, Tom and Jerry, and Droopy, comic book publishers were printing tons and tons of comic books starring wacky, slapstick-oriented animal characters. Most of these titles went out of copyright, and there are lots of fun and interesting characters to be found in them.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
One of the most historically notable is Supermouse. When the first Mighty Mouse cartoon premiered, he was called Supermouse, but what they didn't know was that Pines comics had already taken the name, and successfully sued for copyright infringement even though they were both parodies of Superman.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
One of the most interesting titles I've come across is Funny Films. The conceit of the series is that these are actually cartoons you can watch in a movie theater, except it's a comic book. A bit confusing, I know.
The end result is a series of fourth wall breaks so absolutely thorough in their scope that the fourth wall really doesn't exist anymore, barring actually jumping out of the page (or your computer screen) and blowing up your living room. They talk to the audience, jump out of the screen, and even show up late for the cartoon to start. This is of course the bookends to a whole bunch of slapstick gags and goofy dialogue.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Another interesting series, especially if you're a fan of Archie, is Hi-Jinx. They basically took the premise of teeny-boppers in high school and made them into funny animals. Most of the stories have something to do with swing music and dancing.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
And although they're crudely drawn, one of the more unique character concepts is Pussy Katnip, found in various titles scattered across the mid-1940s, usually buried amongst a bunch of more normal stories with ordinary human characters. Pussy Katnip looks like one of your classic film noir glamorous beauties, except she's an anthropomorphic cat. Think Minerva Mink but feline. She may appear to be a femme fatale at first, but she's actually a crimefighter. To do this she chugs a mysterious beverage that gives her enhanced strength and intelligence. She's sort of a mystery-solving superhero.
Tumblr media
Her appearances are random and kind of hard to find. Here are the titles of the ones currently circulating online: All Your Comics (1944 issue) All Top Comics (one-shot) All Good Comics Everybody’s Comics (1944 issue) Green Mask v1 #11 Ribtickler v1 #1 All Great Comics (1945 issue) Book of All-Comics Green Mask v2 #2 Rocket Kelly #2 Zoot Comics #1
Often these comics, especially in the early '40s, remind me of the artwork of underground comics of the '70s- not quite rubberhose, not quite Looney Tunes. The kind of thing you might find on a punkabilly album cover.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
And ocassionally you'll come across characters with a suspiciously familiar name:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
One thing to watch out for is the occasional Donald Duck knock-off, some more obvious than others.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Now you may be asking: Where can I read these comics? Simple: https://digitalcomicmuseum.com/ Just be sure you have the right software to read them. I use cooViewer. Another incredibly useful resource is www.comics.org.
So if you're like me and you're too impatient to wait for Bugs Bunny and Daffy Duck to fall out of copyright, and you want to do something more unusual and unexpected, there are dozens and dozens of comic books with silly, wacky characters that can be utilized in your own original stories, cartoons, and what have you- and you can monetize them too!

AEW Dynamite 2/1/23
Adam Page vs. Jon Moxley -- Moxley rushes Page before the bell!! Figure Four on the floor in the crowd by Mox! Mox wraps a chair around Page's foot and tries for a stomp off the apron, but Page gets up and slings the chair at Moxley's head!!!! Suplex on the chair on the floor by Page!! Exchange of chops in the ring! Moxley goes for a lariat, but Page catches him and lands a fall-away slam!! Fireman's carry by Page on the apron, and Page absolutely slams Moxley into the ring post, sending Moxley crashing to the outside!! Chops from Mox!! Huge elbow from Page puts Mox down outside!! Back in the ring, Page lands a DVD off the top!! Mox kicks out! Moxley gets up to his knees, and Page kicks Mox in the face each time he tries to get up, yelling at him to stay down!!! Nice!!!! Moxley flips Page off and responds with cutter. Chop and elbow exchange!! Moxley with some hard kicks, then he locks in a sleeper. Back suplex by Page! Side suplex by Moxley!! Suplex off the top by Moxley, but Page kicks out!!! Moxley immediately starts laying in the hammer and anvil elbows, followed by stomps to Page's head! Paradigm Shift attempt, but Page blocks it! Moxley locks in an armbar, but Page gets his foot on the bottom rope! Page goes for a moonsault off the top to the outside, but Moxley moves out of the way and lands a huge lariat to Page's head! Beautiful pop-up powerbomb by Page, driving Moxley through the timekeeper's table!!! Mox barely makes it back into the ring in at 9! Page lands a lariat, followed by Deadeye, but Mox kicks out!

Moxley ducks a Buckshot attempt and goes for Paradigm Shift, but Page reverses into a Tombstone!!! Page lands a Buckshot!! Moxley kicks out!!! Page locks in a bulldog choke!! Moxley manages to counter the hold by maneuvering Page's shoulders onto the mat for a three count. Bleeeehhhhhh.
That was a really great, heated match with a lame finish. Wanted to see Page go two in a row, but obviously, that was never going to happen. Great action nonetheless. Rating: 4
After the match, Page and Mox try to go at each other some more, but Claudio and Yuta come out to get between them.
Saraya and Toni Storm attack Britt Baker.
The Gunns come out to demand a tag team title match. The Acclaimed say no, but the Gunns provoke Billy into saying yes by telling him to go drown his sorrows in a pill bottle like he used to.
Konosuke Takeshita vs. Brian Cage -- Beautiful Blue Thunder Bomb by Takeshita!! Cage nearly drops Takeshita on his head with a German suplex! Buckle bomb attempt by Cage, but Takeshita reverses with a hurricanrana, sending Cage into the turnbuckle! Beautiful jumping knee from Takeshita to the back of Cage's head! HUGE LARIAT BY TAKESHITA!

Takeshita goes for the jumping knee, but Cage blocks! Cage swings for a lariat, but Takeshita ducks it and responds with a DISGUSTING ROLLING ELBOW!!! OH MY GOD!!!! Cage responds with a headbutt!! Back suplex by Cage, followed by a big discus lariat! Takeshita kicks out! Takeshita lands a brainbuster, then a HUGE ELBOW, then another brainbuster!!! Cage kicks out!! Takeshita hits an avalanche brainbuster, followed by a BEAUTIFUL jumping knee to put Cage's lights out!!!! Cover by Takeshita!! 1, 2, 3!!
Wow!! Takeshita pulls a better match out of Cage than Danielson did. Takeshita's knee strike is up there with Omega's in terms of pure beauty. I am becoming obsessed with that guy. Rating: 3.5
Backstage, the JAS says Starks can have another match with Jericho, but only if he beats Parker, Menard, and Garcia or Guevara first.
The Elite extend an offer for a Trios Championship match to Top Flight and AR Fox after Top Flight's recent victory over the Bucks. The Firm comes in and challenges The Elite for Rampage. The Elite are unsure, but Callis tells Omega to think of the money they could make from an NFT of Omega giving Matt Hardy the One-Winged Angel. Excalibur: "Don Callis is so lame that he thinks NFTs are still a thing."
Bryan Danielson vs. Timothy Thatcher -- LET'S GO. Thatcher immediately goes for the Fujiwara armbar, and Danielson rushes to the ropes before he can lock it in. HUGE uppercuts by Thatcher!! Thatcher with a wrist lock, then he traps the wrist on the mat and stomps!! Danielson ties up Thatcher's legs, then falls back onto the mat, wrenching down on the legs. Bow and Arrow stretch by Danielson, but Thatcher grabs the hand on the injured arm of Danielson and stomps it!!!! Danielson with some hard chops and a running dropkick in the corner! Thatcher grabs a wrist lock and picks Danielson up by the wrist!!!! Thatcher takes the hold down to the mat, and Danielson gets his foot on the rope!

Thatcher goes for a butterfly suplex from the top, but Danielson stops it with shots to the ribs and headbutts!! Dropkick off the top by Danielson! Thatcher gets the better of an uppercut exchange, but Danielson turns it around with vicious kicks! Thatcher blocks the last kick and goes for the armbar again, but Danielson escapes before he can lock it in!!! Danielson grabs a waist lock, and attempts a roll up, but Thatcher holds onto the ropes to stop it!! Thatcher swings for an uppercut but misses, and Danielson catches Thatcher in a backslide!! Thatcher kicks out and immediately tries for the Fujiwara armbar, but Danielson once again avoids it and lands a NASTY kick to the head!!! Thatcher kicks out!!!!!!! AAAHHHHHH!! Danielson with the hammer and anvil elbows, followed by a rear choke!!! Danielson, with the choke locked in, backs Thatcher into the corner, nailing the ref in the process!!! While the ref is down, here comes MJF with the Dynamite Diamond Ring!!! But now here comes Takeshita!! Takeshita with punches to MJF!!! The distraction allows Thatcher to finally lock in the Fujiwara armbar, but Danielson manages to get his foot on the rope!! Belly to belly suplex by Thatcher!! German suplex by Danielson!!!! Thatcher runs at Danielson, but Danielson ducks and comes back with a psycho knee!!! Cover!! 1, 2, 3!!
THAT ROCKED SO HARD!! I LOVE TIM THATCHER, SO GLAD TO SEE HIM!! Just great, back and forth wrestling here with so many great, little details. Rating: 4
After the match, MJF and Takeshita are shown backstage, still going at it! MJF throws a chair and then a trashcan at Takeshita's head!!! They lay into each other with punches until security pulls them apart!! MJF screams, "I'll kill you!!" at Takeshita. Loool. Renee enters to announce that Tony Khan has just made MJF vs. Takeshita in an eliminator match official for next week!!! MJF is livid!!! I AM SO HYPED FOR THIS!!!
Danielson vs. Rush is announced for next week. Backstage, MJF offers Rush briefcases full of money to "rip Danielson's arm off and beat him over the head with it."
Jade Cargill (c) vs. Red Velvet for the TBS Championship -- Velvet goes for a cross body to the outside off the apron, but Jade catches her. Jade carries Velvet around like a baby. Jade then presses Velvet up over her head, walks up the ring steps still holding Velvet up, and throws Velvet into the ring, causing Velvet to bounce hard off the top rope! Dropkick, lungblower, then more kicks by Velvet!! Pump kick by Jade, but Velvet kicks out!! Kiera Hogan comes out and takes out Grey at ringside. Velvet lands a big rolling kick to Jade!! Velvet covers and Jade's shoulders are down for more than three seconds, but the ref is distracted with Hogan! Ref turns around and starts the count, but Jade kicks out! Nice submission hold on the arm by Velvet, but Jade deadlifts Velvet up onto her shoulder to counter!! Velvet escapes and tries to roll up Jade, but Jade blocks it, deadlifts Velvet back up, and lands Jaded for the pinfall.
Jade is now 50-0. This was the best match of hers I think I have ever seen. Solid. Rating: 2.25
Darby Allin (c) vs. Samoa Joe for the TNT Championship (No Holds Barred) -- Darby comes out in a jacket covered in thumbtacks!!!!!!!!! He runs at Joe in the corner with the jacket on, driving the tacks into Joe!! Joe turns the momentum around with a big enziguri in the corner! Joe grabs a table from under the ring, but Darby comes flying out of the ring with a suicide dive, driving the table in Joe's hands into Joe's head!!! Darby moves the ring steps beside the barricade. Joe slings Darby, and he slides across the ring steps and over the barricade!!!!! Geez!!! They head up the arena stairs into the crowd. JOE JUST TOSSES DARBY OVER HIS SHOULDER AND OVER THE HAND RAIL!!! DARBY LANDS HARD ON HIS BACK ON THE STAIRS!! OH MY GOD! Joe slings Darby back over the barricade and slams him down on the ring steps!!!!!! Back in the ring, Joe keeps Darby down with hard kicks and chops, and wrenches down on Darby's neck!!! Joe covers Darby with his leg on Darby's head and upper body, but Darby manages to escape! Darby finally gets some separation and runs at Joe in the corner, but Joe stops him with a huge STO!!! Cover, but Darby kicks out! Joe goes for a sleeper, but Darby counters with a jawbreaker!!! Darby gets in some chops!!! But Joe stops the chops and absolutely HURLS DARBY OVER THE TOP TO THE OUTSIDE!!!! HOLY SHIT!!!!! Joe sets up two chairs back to back and drives Darby's back into the backrests with a side suplex!!! Joe goes for powerbomb, but Darby throws some sort of powder into Joe's eyes to stop it!! Darby lands a Code Red!!! Darby follows up with a stunner!!! Darby puts the thumbtack jacket back on and lands a Coffin Drop from the top!!!! Cover, but Joe kicks out!! While Joe is down, Darby removes the canvas and the padding underneath, exposing the wooden boards of the ring!!! Darby goes for a cannonball dive through the second and top rope, but Joe moves out of the way, and Darby goes back-first through a table Joe had propped up on the barricade earlier!!!! OH MY GOD!!!!! Back in the ring, Joe powerbombs Darby onto the thumbtack jacket, then wraps the jacket around Darby's face!!!!! Darby blindly gets both his thumbs into Joe's eyes to escape!!!! Darby lands chair shots to Joe's back!!!! Darby goes to the top, looking for a Coffin Drop, but Joe pulls the ref into the top rope to knock Darby off his feet!!! Joe lands an avalanche Muscle Buster on Darby on the exposed boards!!!!! HOLY SHIT!!!! Cover by Joe!!! 1, 2, 3!!!!!
Damn, what a match!!!! It was full of insane spots, and I absolutely loved it. Nobody can be a badass quite like Samoa Joe. And NOBODY can take a bump like Darby Allin!!!!!!!! Sad to see Darby lose the title, but I'm good with Joe holding it. Rating: 4.25
However, I am not fine with Wardlow beating Joe for the title, which seems to be where this is going. Wardlow enters after the match and tries to powerbomb Joe, but Joe escapes.

python vs hector| boel
[from ask @aimlessarchery]
Thunder rolls overhead, thick and loud enough to be mistaken for the galloping hooves of cavalry down the field if not for the thick grey shroud that covers the sun. Python spies his next target through the gloom—an armored knight with hair as blue as the Lion's banner he fights under. 
 "Looks like we're up!" He calls out to his opponent, just to be sporting. A little less sportingly, he adds, "Might want to duck if you don't want to end up like the last one!" 
Python draws his bowstring back, one eye closed as he carefully aims his shot. He may as well enjoy the luxury of distance while he can.
Python attacks Hector with Deadeye (Killer Bow) at Range+. Roll: 11; Hit. -2.5HP (Hector 2.5/5)
Second verse, same as the first. Another arrow drawn from the quiver, loosed before the distance can be closed.
Darting Blow activates: Python attacks Hector with Killer Bow at Range+. Roll: 14+2=16 ; Hit. -2HP (Hector 0.5/5)
Or…perhaps not quite the same as the first. Where Lilina had crumpled after the second blow, Hector still stands. Python takes a faltering step back, already yearning for the safety of space that's soon to be lost.
“The last one-?”
He doesn’t get his shield up in time, and only barely shifts his body enough to deflect the shot with a sturdy piece of armour. It still hurts worse than a wasp sting, by far, the pure pressure of the attack enough to near knock the wind out of him...
but he doesn’t yield.
Rather, sharp gaze has locked onto his foe, and though the man’s already knocking another arrow (damned quick dastard), Hector tightens his grip on his axe, calls the feeling of it in his hand as a rally cry forth,
and he charges.
The next arrow finds an unfortunate opening in his armour as he moves, and fucking hells that’s gonna leave a mark. He does not yelp, does not cry - he snarls and then he roars, fury overtaking pain and common sense.
“Let’s see how you like me up close! Grah!”
Hector attacks Python with Monster Breaker (Short Axe) at Melee range. Roll: 8 ; Hit. -3HP (Python: 2/5)
It’s not as weighty a swing as it could’ve been. For starters, he’s not out here to cleave folks in half. And then there’s that blasted arrow stuck in him that’s causing him grief...
How frustrating. He’s never had this much trouble with a bowman before.

BRAIN TIME
'Deadeye' powers vary from Desmus to Desmus.. Influenced by things in their lives/personalities/goals/ect. The eye is passed down kinda deal. Loss of an eye- replaced by the new one kinda deal. However there is a running theme of threads/strings/rope for what they can see mixed with their powers
Masayo's is linked with connections between people. He can tell who is connected to who.. if their relationships have been severed.. or weak or strong or even.. potentially fated.. however he cannot speak of them. He has once, the bond was severed.. and they seemed to strangle him. Others cannot see these connections in the same way as he can.
Ketana's is linked with his hits/needing to not fail? The threads he sees all guide him to where he needs to aim. Once a string goes taut, he knows where to aim, since they are attached to his opponite or target. This isnt always foolproof. Sometimes strings go taut at the same time.. and he has to become creative..lest he lose his opportunity
Riyyao's.. i have given this A LOT of thought. His seem to be.. connected with combos.. and weak points on someones body. He is a little speedy on his feet and with his hands.. with all that gaming he does- Hes gotten good at his reflexes. He would have to follow the strings and seemingly need to 'weave' the thread through someones weak points.. however.. that kid would have to A) figure it out and B) not be scared to do so
Akiira himself.. hes literally pulling strings to paralyze and strike fear into his enemies. In his youth- he used to have troubles utilizing this without being sussed out.. however he has mastered subtlty. Using these invisible strings to have his victims be sitting ducks.. little does he know.. this will all come crashing down on him eventually. Both physically and mentally. :)

UNIT REVIEW: VAL VAL CAT
Tumblr media
val val cat. true form of bean cat. unit initially added in update 2.3, when freeze and slow didn't exist. true form added in update 12.7, almost nine years later. took a little while.
no, it's not valkyrie cat's bra. it's her headpiece. common misconception.
bean cat is unlocked after clearing greece in empire of cats 1. being one of the earliest units you get in the game, it's not exactly very good. at level 30 (in second form, brah cats, due to first form having lower stats), it has 1.7k damage per hit and 541 dps with 230 range, 6.8k health with three knockbacks, and 30% chance to knockback red enemies.
these are obviously pretty shit stats. it's really only useful against one horn, but it's still half decent until you get much better counters to red such as witch and pirate cat, at which point it becomes irrelevant. some people use it on the SoL stage merciless onslaught, which requires you to KB three one horns behind the base or die to assassin bears, but pirate cat (and generalist KB units such as sniper the deadeye and kubiluga if you have them) work just fine.
combos don't exactly save this unit, but they give it a use. the combo Bouncing Four with rope jump cat is a starting money up M, which continues to be usable for rushing stages into the later game. this can be combined with Lingerie Special with panties cat, a worker level up SM, for a three-slot, no-gacha equivalent of the combos given in one slot by the true form of reinforcement super rare rich cat sr. not incredible, but usable. it's also included in Team of Two, a five-slot defense up M, which happens to also give you Bouncing Four automatically. while it becomes obsolete as soon as you need more than five units in a lineup (six if you use drama/slapsticks), it has its uses in early game. its final combo is a cannon recharge up M with twinstars. being an uber combo does hurt its usage, given that the majority of players aren't gonna have twinstars, but it's good on assassin bear stages and stages with a big zombie boss you want to holy blast spam. solid combo.
true form, which requires three red seeds, three red fruits, and one red behemoth stone, fixes a couple things. first off, it doubles health (and adds one (1) point) to get to 13735, and gives it resist. this, when combined with behemoth slayer, gives it 91566.667 health (not sure how the game rounds that lol, probably 91566). while its cooldown is slightly too long to serve as a meatshield, it can survive decently well and continue CCing. speaking of CC, its guaranteed level 1 wave gives it a pseudo-area attack, removing the main weakness of many otherwise decent CC units, single target. its damage is still incredibly awful, but it has decent survivability and mobility, with 8 speed and a 9.47 second cooldown.
red is a very powercrept trait, and so is behemoth (technically a sub-trait but still powercrept). you may look at this unit and think "courier better lol", and you would be entirely right. this thing is largely outclassed by courier in effectively every situation where it could hold relevancy. HOWEVER, it holds usage in ONE situation, being the first appearance of ahirujo. you need to beat five behemoth stages to unlock courier's egg; however, only four stages (first three of gapra and first of ashvini) lack ahirujo, and the stages immediately after that (and the first of jinfore) have the duck. val val is a surprisingly decent counter, having enough health to tank a non-savage blow attack without getting knocked back, and attacking fast enough that it has a good chance to proc KB. while this is obviously not the best counter to ahirujo, and is arguably not worth the behemoth stone, it can work if you struggle on the duck, as i've seen many people do.
tl;dr: not a very relevant unit, but can work early game, and true form has a couple of niche usages (especially with combo). might not have been worth the nine year wait, but it's a neat design at the very least.

Final Fantasy XV - Fate & Destiny
Chapter Twelve, Part One (of one)
Chapter Twelve: Deadeye
We were only a mile or so into our hunt when we saw entire trees topple in the distance, a surefire clue we were on the right trail. I was unprepared when Ignis closed the distance between us by stopping directly in front of me, his gloved hand on my shoulder. He leaned forward, not exactly whispering, but his voice was quiet.
“You don’t need to do this. We can handle it.”
His concern was endearing, and I couldn’t help but smile despite my nerves. I placed my hand on his and squeezed. “Thanks, Iggy. But I think I need to do this. For both my father and myself.”
He nodded in understanding and we continued forward. Noctis and Gladio led the way through twisting turns and crashing trees, sometimes meeting with small packs of Voretooths along the way. Although I have fought much more formidable foes, those Voretooths always put fear in my heart. I recall my shredded leg and the despair I felt, and I got distracted. Prompto nudged me forward and I drew in a cleansing breath, pulling up the rear. Eventually, Noct found a tunnel made of mostly rusted corrugated sheet metal remnants, and the idea was to crawl through to the other side. I wondered if this was something the Hunters came up with as a way to sneak past the behemoth. Gladio motioned for us to stay behind him as he went to explore the tunnel first, followed by Noct. Quietly, the five of us crawled on our hands and knees, trying not to make any sound that would attract Deadeye, but its hearing was keen. When it approached the tunnel, we remained as still as we humanly could, but there happened to be a gap where the metal between Noct and Gladio didn’t completely cover them. Gladio held up his hand, warning us not to move. As that giant behemoth of a creature loomed over us, smelling for us, knowing we were there but unable to reach us, my heart pounded so hard, I felt it in my brain. The beast shoved its muzzle into the hole and roared, spittle flying, the sound reverberating over the metal. My whole body trembled in fear and I closed my eyes, my hands covering my ears, trying not to imagine this was what my father last saw before he died: those massive purple jaws and flesh-ripping teeth, but I knew it was. Both Prompto and Ignis put their arms around me, crouching over me, holding me still until the roar finished echoing in our ears and the behemoth stomped away. Gladio motioned us forward and we continued through the tunnel.
As we exited, Gladio observed, “It’s weak on the right, no eye, no horn.”
Around us, a thick fog grew, obstructing our vision beyond forty feet or so. We trudged forward, following fallen trees to mark Deadeye’s trail. As Noct ducked under branches and started to run into the next field, Gladio grabbed his arm, holding him back as Ignis caught up.
The advisor whispered, “Best not to run into this blindly, Noct.”
Gladio didn’t exactly whisper, but he was quiet as he pointed, “It’s right there, ahead. See the tail? We should trail it—”
Ignis continued, “Let it lead us to it’s lair, where it will be vulnerable.”
Noctis nodded and crouched down behind a large rock, ready to lead the way. Prompto and I followed next, catching glimpses of the behemoth’s spiked club tail as it lumbered along, unaware we were stalking it. Honestly, I was so absorbed in staying hidden while keeping the beast in sight, I lost track of our location. I had no idea where in the forest we were until we reached our destination. Deadeye’s lair was the quarry that had shut down a year or two ago due to his presence. We shimmied our way between rocks and started down into the quarry, yet Ignis took me and Noct aside.
For once, he appeared nervous, his eyes darting from Noct to me. “Ardenia, you’re positive you’re ready to fight?”
My heart was in my throat, my palms beginning to sweat, but I had come this far, and I knew I wasn’t fighting alone. “Yes. I need to do this.”
With a nod, Ignis turned to the prince. “In that case, Noct, do you have that lance, the one Cid just upgraded? Would you mind too terribly if Ardenia used it?”
Both my and Noctis’s eyes widened in reaction to Ignis’s request, but ultimately, Noct summoned the specified weapon and held it out to me. “Nah, I don’t mind.”
I took the lance in both hands, “Are you guys sure about this?”
Ignis nodded impatiently, “Yes. I have my daggers, and Noct has a spare lance as well. Or would you rather battle with a stick?”
I smiled in thanks and took a step back, twirling my new weapon in my hands to get a feel for it. “No, thank you for your foresight, Ignis, and thank you, Noct.”
The prince nodded, “Let’s put this behind us.”
Gladio called out from below, “Come on! I’m itching to kill this thing!”
Ignis, Noct and I jogged forward, down the gravelly slope and into the beast’s lair. Our trek through the rocks gave us a moment to survey our surroundings, in which we noticed several flammable barrels scattered along the U-shaped pit. From above, there was a loud roar, and Deadeye came into view. It leapt from one of the outcroppings above, nearly landing on Gladio, but he rolled away.
“Use the barrels!” Ignis shouted, “Set it on fire!”
Noctis aimed his elemental energy at the first barrel, but it missed. The behemoth immediately turned its attention to Noct, leaping at him, knocking him to the ground. At that moment, something snapped inside of me, and I knew no fear. Seeing Noct vulnerable made me angry; knowing this beast had killed someone I loved made me vengeful. I summoned the new lance into my hands and rushed to Noct, standing over him as he struggled to his feet. Deadeye roared again, and I screamed back before bringing my lance up under it’s jaw. We had surrounded it, with me in the front, Prompto to my right, riddling the creature with bullets. Ignis and Gladio were in it’s blind spot on the right, throwing flame daggers, taking giant slashes at it with a massive great sword, respectively. Noct seemed to fly in from multiple directions, piercing it with his short sword every time. Deadeye rushed toward Noct whenever he appeared to his left, Deadeye’s good eye, and the Prince fired more energy into the next barrel. An explosion erupted just under Deadeye, setting the beast aflame and knocking the rest of us back with a wave of heat. We managed to get to our feet, continuing the assault, despite Gladio and Prompto both being knocked aside with its clawed paws once or twice. Noct hit another barrel and Deadeye began to stumble. It’s hide was torn to shreds from Gladio and most of it’s fur had burned away, revealing thick muscle underneath. As Noct and Gladio worked together for a devastating hit, I ran up and Prompto caught my foot, lifting me into the air and onto the beast’s back. Between the five of us, we hit it at the same time, and it fell over onto it’s side, letting out a final grunt, and as I hopped down from the body, it was no longer breathing.
While Noct cheered and gave Prompto and Gladio high-fives, I stood in front of it in shock. I gave a little kick to it’s muzzle, and the tongue lolled out, unmoving. It was over. My father was avenged. I took a couple steps back before sitting in the middle of the gravel, my knees against my chest, and I began to silently weep. I was suddenly so tired, I couldn’t move. I felt a heavy hand on my shoulder, and I looked up, expecting Gladio, but no one was there. I smiled to myself, knowing it was my father congratulating me. I could just hear him say, “Good job, kiddo,” before the others walked over to check on me. I wiped at my eyes as Noctis and Ignis patted me on the shoulders. Prompto extended his hand and pulled me to my feet, then into his loose embrace. Slowly, I reached up and hugged him back.
“I know this means a lot to you,” he said, and for a moment, I wasn’t sure if he meant Deadeye or the embrace. “But you’re strong. You’ll be okay with anything now.”
I nodded and he let me go. Another tear fell down my cheek as I smiled at him. Prompto Argentum was just too sweet. He smiled awkwardly before following Noct and Ignis as they searched the area for loot, apparently only finding a broken harmonica. Prompto attempted to play it for several excruciating minutes before Ignis stole it from his hands and threw it as hard as he could out of sight.
Gladio rattled me by the shoulders a little roughly. “That was amazing! When you roared back at that thing—” he shook his head and lowered his voice, “I never wanted anyone so badly in my life. I know that I made the right decision in asking you to—” he gulped, unsure whether to bring up the topic now, “to be with me forever.” While his friends were out of sight, he took my face in his hands and kissed me. “I’m proud of you.”
I reached up and hugged him tightly, not letting go until Noct called for us. I felt like I was getting answers. He wasn’t kidding about marrying me. He just said he wanted to be with me forever, and I can’t say that I was completely opposed to the idea. I felt safe when he hugged me, when he held me. I just needed to figure out how to work the Scroll around that. On shaking legs, I followed the guys back to Wiz’s without incident, still in a stupor over my victory.

Dick deadeye and duty done (1975)
Dick Deadeye is ordered by the Queen to find the ultimate secret which was stolen by a sorcerer with the pirates of Penzance.
Tumblr media
Duck Deadeye or duty done takes elements from the works of Gilbert and Sullivan to construct a full rock musical. I'm not exactly familiar with the operettas so the parody of it sort of goes over my head. The plot is a bit bloated and hard to keep track of since it clearly expects the audience to know the Gilbert and Sullivan operas and understand all of the references.
Tumblr media
They took the musical numbers from the operettas and tweaked them slightly to fit in with the story. The music's very 70s and is quite forgettable because of it as they just blend in with all the other songs coming out at the time. I love Ronald Searle's visual style that it uses, the grimy aesthetic is really the best part of the movie. And while the animation is a tad choppy the art style and character designs kept my attention for the most part.
Tumblr media
If you're a big fan of the works of Gilbert and Sullivan go ahead and check it out. Outside of that I don't think it is worth watching.

AEW Dynamite 9/7/22
MJF promo to open the show <333. He says that he intends to use the AEW World Championship as a bargaining chip when his contract is up and that he may take the title to a real wrestling company, because as one of his heroes, The Game Triple H, would say, that's what's best for business. MJF also says that he is better than Moses. I am so happy to have him back, I could cry.
Moxley interrupts and tells MJF to get out. MJF acts like he is going to fight Moxley, and cannot get his shirt sleeve off his wrist, so he just wrips the shirt off, leaving only a small part of the shirt around his wrist lmaooooo. But of course, he leaves instead of actually fighting. Nice promo from Moxley about what the AEW title means. "You can be as great as you are willing to dare to be." Good stuff.
Death Triangle vs. Best Friends and Orange Cassidy for vacant AEW Trios Championship -- Both of these teams rock, and this match is great. Penta dodges an Orange Punch from Cassidy and lands Made in Japan!! Double thrust kicks by Pac and Penta into a Code Red by Fénix!!! Triple Canadian destoyers by Death Triangle!!! Beautiful!!!! Penta and Fénix land Fear Factor on Chuck. Fénix with a tornillo to take out the others on the outside while Pac hits the Black Arrow on Chuck for the win!!! BEAUTIFUL!!!! RIGHTFUL TRIOS CHAMPS!!!!
Bryan Danielson vs. Adam Page (AEW World Championship tournament) -- Great match with an excellent finish. They exchange beautiful rolling elbows!!! Page catches Danielson with a Deadeye, then goes for a moonsault from the top, but misses. Psycho knee by Danielson sends Page rolling to the outside. Disgusting apron powerbomb by Page, followed by moonsault from the top rope to the outside. Page rolls Danielson into the ring and sets up for the Buckshot. Danielson ducks the Buckshot and counters with a quick O'Connor roll into a bridging pin for the 3 count. Awesome.
Wheeler Yuta (c) vs. Daniel Garcia for ROH Pure Championship -- Garcia and Yuta exchange German suplexes. Huge back suplex off the second rope by Garcia!!! Yuta exposes the turnbuckle, drives Garcia's face into it, and steps on his head!!! Garcia returns the favor after ramming Yuta into the ring post. Suplex off the top rope by Garcia! Frantic exchange of palm strikes in the middle of the ring!!! Garcia locks in the Dragon Tamer, forcing Yuta to use a rope break. Yuta gets a warning for a closed fist punch. Garcia locks in the Dragon Tamer again, but Yuta counters into a cross face. Yuta traps Garcia in a quick pinning combo, but Garcia narrowly escapes!! Garcia locks in the Dragon Tamer once again, this time really deep. Yuta grabs his neck, attempting a hold of his own, but Garcia wrenches down on Yuta's leg even more, forcing Yuta to tap!!!! Garcia is the new ROH Pure Champion!!! In his hometown!! Danielson comes out to the ring and puts the belt around Garcia's waste. (What a moment this must be for Garcia as a wrestling fan.) Jericho comes down the ramp and looks like he is going to cry watching this happen.
