#I wish to think and theorize

[clit-a-cola]

Now I understand not liking how a character is portrayed or treated and hating a story they're in and then like

Making fanfic, or completely rewriting the story, or hell creating a whole NEW story and character to show How It Shoulda Been Done

But it sometimes feels like the leasebound hate-readers have a very particular, like, need for the comic's fans and creator to see their re-invisioning.

Idk what it means or what in particular causes it but it IS interesting

#blogging #Like I'm thinking of things I've done fix-it spite creations for and I've never like #tried to get the og creator to see it or obsessed about how they'd react to it. #But to be fair and balanced (tm) the creators of those things were either dead or old enough for me to know they couldn't reliably use #the internet lol. #Or hell maybe this is something common to modern hate-fandoms that I'm just seeing for the first time! #Still interesting to me! #I wish to think and theorize #about why this happens. #I'm sure me and the fandom are in turn theorized on in turn. #IS this enough tags to not end up in the main tag? #Cause this doesn't really have anything to do with the comic itself but I wanna tag for my own posterity lol. #leasebound

Just a reminder to everyone that everyone has their own theories and head canons and even when you don’t agree it’s important to be respectful, that’s part of the fun. Everyone having their own ideas and sharing them 💖 stay safe

#I understand the hype I don’t really understand the game rn to like theorize #but I think it’s lowkey making people a bit aggressive #pix habla #fnaf #hmmm #idk ? just worried people might get hurt over something that’s supposed to be fun #I wish there was more I could say but yeah #brain isn’t all that good at the moment thanks to the holidays its been hard to think #just do what you want to do and believe what you want to believe and focus on yourself y’know ? you don’t have to agree with everything #or everyone #just what makes you happy and what makes sense to you #that’s what’s important

I realized that we don't know when the events of the song sequence occur in the story. It could be Xisuma, either because of his helmet or he got a scar because his helmet broke. Or it could be someone else who got a scar later on. Hmmm.

#I wish I had like a submission channel because some of these are very interesting and valid thoughts #but I don’t really wanna give commentary that alludes to how accurate or inaccurate they may be #I just think the thoughts should be shared with the public/that other people deserve to see the theorizing going on #it’s very cool to me #dbhc ask #dbhc #dbhc xisuma #dbhc doc #new tag? sure! #if there comes up some more I may just keep responding with a period and the dbhc theory tag #this is where I make my first sideblog/hj #dbhc theories

What I really enjoyed about this episode, despite it not being what we were all hoping for (and honestly, are we really surprised lmao) is the idea of Janet not getting what she wants. Even down to Jones being a nervous weasel standing behind her, still doing everything she's saying despite a mob on their doorstep.

I think there is potential for a really interesting narrative here of Janet never really being sure about something, and it driving her crazy. She has the supposed indescribable urge to explain, categorize, and make sense of anything in her immediate vicinity. She changes the words and definitions of things to her benefit in order for her to get the outcome she wants. What I love, is her not getting the satisfaction. Of never knowing undoubtedly with 100% certain the answer to something. There's just enough that doesn't add up. It reminds me of her explaining away station management, but she doesn't stop to question how the station has run without management for so long.

Josh Crayton is an interesting character for her to focus in on, because of what he can do. He can be anything, or anyone, at any given time. Right now, a lot of what Lubelle seems to be interested in is Dana's double, and doubles in general. It's what brought her to Night Vale in the first place. Now, I'm still on the fence of whether or not I want Carlos to save the town at all, quite frankly I don't even care that he hasn't done anything (because that keeps open a realm of opportunities about why even if I'd love for him to be mentioned or on the show) but right now it'd sure be interesting if he was working with Josh, Dana and Tamika. Josh can change his shape and his friends parent (the glow cloud (all hail) ) was murdered. Dana knows the town and how it works. Tamika has fought and protected the town and knows the value of knowledge. There is something there.

Carlos knew right from the start that Lubelle was coming and why. She announced it. He knows that the existence of doubles are real. He had lived with Cecil's for a decade. And if we are to assume that they had some kind of working relationship, after what Jones said about him in the diner, and what he said about Lubelle at the very beginning, she will not stop until she get what she wants. He knows this about her, and warned Cecil and the town. I have to think that if he got readily involved, Janet would have been keeping an eye on him no doubt. I have to think that him leaving and never coming back without explanation (assumably) is something that the University has never had an answer to. He is an open ended question for them, for her, for the town and for us as the listener. I am reminded of the line in 219 "Stay tuned next for the popular game show: “Who’s In My House?” where contestants try to understand strange voices and figures in the dark." After it is made known that Cecil is dealing with the frustrations of his town beginning to distrust his husband. Who exactly is living in his home? Who is the man he married really?

Carlos knows it must drive Lubelle insane. He knows the town not knowing things and his husband not knowing things, drives them insane. Right now, Carlos is taking advantage of an absence of knowledge, which is fun! And whether or not he ends up saving the day, the building suspense of him doing nothing is driving people crazy and really effective. Carlos is so completely off her radar, so thoroughly debunked and nonsensical to her, deemed a failure, that she's not even thinking about him actively being a threat to her being there.

Maybe he's looking at Tamika's ordinance of banning science in Night Vale as a saving grace. Maybe he doesn't want to be one anymore. Maybe he just wants to be Carlos. Maybe he left the university because he'd "gone soft and stopped caring" (episode 222) and was thrown into the exact role he was trying to escape from when he got to night vale. A scientist first, a person second.

I don't know if any of this makes sense, and I love Carlos and I'm angry that the show is not doing anything with the stakes they're raising but, I also can't help but sit and patiently wait. They waited ten years to give us some of Carlos' backstory. I can wait a little a longer to see what is to become of him.

I also can't wait to see the thing that breaks Janet. She can write off Cecil as a disturbed fool because it's a clear and concise answer that leaves little ambiguity. She can write off Carlos leaving and never coming back by deeming him a failure.

She's not interested in explaining anything.

She's interested in getting what she wants. She's interested in being right even if its by technicality. And what she seemingly wants is everything to be within her control. The idea of someone or something not doing what she expects might just be the thing to break her. I hope its Jones. I hope it's a Night Vale citizen. I hope its Carlos. Isn't it interesting that Josh is nowhere to be found, Dana's double story was conveniently forgotten (or genuinely, honestly) by Cecil on air, Tamika is banning science and Carlos hasn't been around from the beginning?

How do you beat someone who is in control? Isn't one way by making them think they still have all the power?

So remember when stephanie said that there might be more scenes in the hollow so what if evangline gets her memory back at the hollow they said curses didn't work there right?

hi!!! thank you for the ask💗

i've actually thought about this one a lot! that maybe if evangeline saw the hollow she would be reminded of jacks OR if she went and the curse stopped working because of the magic.

but, there is one minor issue with that. so they removed the stone, which gave the hollow its power, and the hollow became all sad and dead after they removed the stone so does the magic still work??? could it remove her curse??? would it just work to remind eva of jacks??? so many unanswered questions about the hollow. honestly, that's what I'm most curious about for acftl (besides the valors)

but let me know your thoughts in the comments/reblogs!!!💘

#sorry i didn't have a better answer :( #i wish i could give better answers to your asks but there are so many things we don't know so all we can do is theorize until october #i would tove to hear everyone's thoughts though #i think stephanie did say we would be seeing more of the hollow #i don't remember which post it was though #tbona #ouabh #jacks prince of hearts #acftl theories #acftl asks #evajacks #evangeline x jacks #stephanie garber #a curse for true love #acftl #the hollow #the ballad of never after #evangeline fox #jacks x evangeline #caraval #books #asks #theory asks #tbona theories #ouabh theories #theories

[eternal-reverie]

the thing about it is- and i cannot stress it enough- no new information about the game itself was released today. we have exactly as much content to work with as we did 24 hours ago, yet somehow the hype alone of the re-confirmation that the game is in fact still alive has kicked us back into kh mode and reawakened our brains at full strength

LOL LITERALLY

the hold this series has over everyone is insane!!! Just a teaser image barely hinting at anything uploaded after so long has the fandom like this; it hilarious and truly inspiring! Like we were all just hibernating 😆

Haha this whole situation has me reminiscing through similar times in the past where we just get excited for trailer release dates (which I think I would crumble with scheduling that on my calendar if that were to happen again soon) and theorizing to the smallest details of the logos and what not

#*destati plays loudly in the bg for the kh fandom* #I love how passionate and enthusiastic everyone is it’s so infectious!!! #kh #khml #asks #I think I was still sorta in hiatus when the first round of khml news dropped with the new emblem symbol #which Im still obsessed over how it looks like a dandelion seed and builds off the previous emblem designs we’ve seen before!!! #i wish I had the brain power and energy to theorize more often #happy to see everyone else’s tho!!!

[bmoharrisbankofficial]

there is no way in hell this is marwa’s ending. i don’t even mean this in a ‘this ep was fucked up’ way (even though it was turbo fucked!) — i mean that the treatment of her character has gone from ‘bad but in a haha way that fits the show’s tone’ to ‘oh this is a legitimate horror movie’ so quickly, and the past few eps have really explicitly highlighted that. there’s no way they’re leaving her story like this. like seriously, the writers would have to be actively malicious and horrible at writing a cohesive narrative to just end her story here. they are not leaving it like this when they’ve been building up the horror and tension without releasing any of it at all, but god am i worried about how they’ll conclude it next week.

post finale edit: nvm. bye forever.

#what we do in the shadows #wwditsfx #wwdits #if this makes no sense please be advised that it is 2:58am #but anyways #i’m not going to theorize bc frankly i do not trust the show with one female main character to do women right #especially not when the character they need to treat right is a brown woman #(looks pointedly at nandor’s actor and also the ethnic slur line from a season or two back) #if i were to guess however: they’re going to wish to undo all the wishes #that won’t be satisfying for marwa’s ending but i think that’s what’s most likely #nandor the relentless #guillermo de la cruz #marwa wwdits #freddie

[danidoesathing]

am i the only one who feels like alex(the world ender guy) was kind of a missed oportunity in vide noir? like, he was set up by johnnie to be a badass gang leader just for him to never even appear in the end, we just got a close up to his face scar

i feel like buck's encounter with the psychic would've been way more powerful if it was alex instead. its implied that johnnie and moonbeam had a relationship ig, but its barely even hinted at, and he never even mentions her. but with johnnie and alex, johnnie actually mentions him and speaks highly of his brother, and says alex will help buck if he sees the red cloth that belonged to johnnie

the fact that all that build up led to buck not even TALKING to alex kinda irks me. imagine how much better the payoff would be if alex had received the cloth instead of moonbeam? if we had seen his reaction to johnnie's death? if he would've helped buck like johnnie said he would? if we saw what johnnie implied alex would do to the guys who black brained his brother? idk man i think we were robbed

im new to the fanbase, so im gonna be very embarassed if this is a topic that already came up here LOLL but i still wanted to get it off my chest💀sry if this ask is messy, i suck at writing down my thoughts lmao

No I gotta agree on that. Like I LOVED seeing Moonbeam and getting know her as her and having all this new information about her (her being part of the World Enders is still wild to me and I love it) and it’s a good scene and all, but I’m still confused as to why they built up Alex so much, especially since this is the first time we’re hearing about him, and he never even got the chance to speak. If it were Dale I’d be a bit more understanding as we know him already (tho not by much cause I would have loved to see more of Dale). But it’s Alex, whose not only the leader of the World Enders but also Johnnie’s (and Dale’s) brother. I would’ve have loved to, you know, actually meet the guy. Especially with how much build up he got. And I GET IT Lord Huron’s lore is meant to be weird and vague and hard to pin down but like. Didn’t need to tease me like that come on

The only reason I could think of was maybe they needed to get Buck on his own again? Like having this the beginning of a war between the World Enders and Z’Oieasu shown or having Buck work with them consistently might have thrown off the tone. It is supposed to be Buck’s story and his own descent into madness. The whole album has this isolated vibe to me, like being alone in a city of people Hard to get that when there’s other people around, especially a group as lively as the world enders. Or maybe they just wanted to include Moonbeam back into the story again lol

GOD I would have loved to see Moonbeam’s scene with Buck done with Alex. I can only imagine how that scene would’ve played out and his reaction to Johnnie’s death. Contrasting Buck’s scene with Johnnie with Alex’s own personality, the possible dynamics, the anger and grief that could arise…..ough

#thanks anon now you’ve given me the urge to write that scene. how am I supposed to do a character that doesn’t even have A SINGLE LINE /lh #I’m already struggling to characterize Dale how am I supposed to do Alex. why would you do this to me /lh #seriously tho I wish we got more of Alex. or anything or Alex tbh #I wanna know more about him #Alex Redmayne who are you….. #it’s also possible they were originally going to include a scene with him but it got cut/changed for whatever reason #tho honestly I think moonbeam was always gonna come back into the story in some sense due to the song #my own personal theory (thanks to the clip in POTU) is that Buck and Moonbeam were supposed to have something going on but it got cut #mostly cause the dynamic in the clip is way different from the one they’ve got in the movie #but idk I’m glad they didn’t force a romance at least. imo they didn’t really have romantic chemistry in that second scene. at all #whether that’s due to rewrites or just a decision to cut it I don’t know. I don’t think it would’ve fit the story anyway #i could be wrong tho so take my theorizing with a grain of salt #however it is very funny that one character with a love song that has all the hallmark’s of Buck’s writing isn’t probably done by him lol #esp since he’s got chemistry with the other characters. women hate him ghosts want him /j #dani speaks #ask #asks #lord huron

Not very fond of people like waving off testament’s gender as just a Gear Thing but well at least it becomes funny when people apply it to gears as a whole. Like yeah i can agree with that. It has nothing to do with being a gear tho theyre all just transgender

#okay ill talk about it seriously down here #it does feel like the original intent behind their androgyny was to kind of Other them from humanity #daisuke saying theyve transcended humanity / talking about their ‘inhuman beauty’ #i dont want to call it dehumanizing since theres like. a weird positive (…i guess) angle of them being ‘above’ humanity #thats just kind of a trope though. like nonhuman characters without a human concept of gender or sexuality. yknow #but anyway strive didnt really go back on this. they kinda made it a part of their arc? #i think dev backyard says that theyve ‘lived without the concept of gender’ since being turned into a gear #but theres no disconnect from humanity that goes along with that anymore #i like the implication that reconciling with humanity and more importantly their OWN humanity coincided with their presumable transition! #alright now for the part of this i dont like. its weird to assume the gear conversion had some effect on their body and THATS why theyre nb #i think any implications of that are vague enough to be dismissed #i wouldnt even call them Implications its like. messy (and contradictory!) early 2000s phrasing and a theory about 1 line of dialogue lol #early fandom stuff im aware of but dont know enough to talk about aside. nowadays its just used to like #excuse their androgyny. by gamers who cant just. believe that theyre nonbinary because they want to be. lol #not because of anything that was done to their body against their will. or even more simply because theyre just a gear and are Above gender #literally theyre just nonbinary. isnt that cool. i wish everyone could agree this is cool and end the discussion there. #except for me. i can discuss it all i want forever. because im the understander. #whatever. at least the section of testament’s wiki page theorizing about their genitalia is gone now. kissaroo for whoever took that off. #I NEED TO WRITE UP THAT TIMELINE IM LITERALLY NOT KIDDING WHEN I SAY IM AUTISTIC ABOUT TESTAMENT’S GENDER.

[killadelphias]

my controversial opinion is that you can't rely on outside media sources or base substantial theories on anything exclusive from outside of the main tv show.

(other than just for fun! I'm talking about reality.)

details with any impactful significance to the plot and characters are gonna be in the tv show. the television show has to exist as a self-contained piece of media. i know this isn't what dedicated super fans want to hear, but the TV show is the main vehicle and it has to contain the full picture / stand alone for the general watcher who is just tuning in for the show and the show only. the show can be deeeeeply detailed and twisty and fulfilling, but important, pertinent information cannot appear in anything outside the show w plot relevance and not be explored within the show itself. everything probably connects and is on theme, but all the different media also stand alone as well. it just was never intended to be a multimedia, inter-connected franchise from the beginning. everything else can enhance the show, but just keep in mind stuff from plays or video games or comics or books or social media marketing might contradict the tv show or never appear in the show!

#st #where the fun of fandom vs source media collide and diverge #and that's fine! i love analyzing and theorizing! #but w a caveat in the back of my mind that the only piece of media with genuine relavance is the television show solely on its own #i live in an endless loop of really really wishing i could see the play and also very much wishing it never existed #while i love love love the comics and novels too like theyre super cool for fandom but i don't think they're show canon??? #this is mostly about... tfs... fascinating and yet. the bane of my existence... #edit: i think this is so funny i posted this before knowing that VR thing existed which is fascinating to me #idk what VR gaming really is and its throwing me for a loop like what is this who makes all this content #stranger things

Once the veneer of fantasy is stripped off, the setting terrestrialized, and the orcs recognized as human, then, all the classic themes of Western racist thought become immediately visible. Tolkien’s aesthetic judgment on Mongols and orcs simply repeats Meiners’ aesthetic classification of races, and the even earlier medieval hierarchy: “The figure prized in medieval romances corresponded to Greek statuary, physiognomy was important, and a ‘skin of dazzling whiteness’ exemplified true beauty. Such beauty symbolized goodness, while blackness, small stature, and an ill-proportioned body meant ugliness and evil.” Similarly, twentieth-century German racists would contrast Aryans and dark “ape-men.” Blacks themselves, of course, had traditionally been seen in racist thought as close to apes, and possibly even prone to couplings with orangutans. In keeping with the foregoing, Tolkien describes an orc as “a short crook-legged creature, very broad and with long arms that hung almost to the ground” (TT, 62), while at the siege of Helm’s Deep, we are told, the orcs “sprang up [the ladders] like apes in the dark forests of the South” (TT, 178). The pure-blooded orcs’ fear of the sun also has its precedent in one German anthropologist’s contrast of a diurnal Aryan and a nocturnal non-Aryan race.

I just want to thank you for trowing the dnotnap vampire au out on the internet. It has been actually quite develloped and yet not enough, just what was needed to encourage people to create their own ideas around it and I love the concept of snf vampires feeding on Dream, especially with the bloodlust episode

Even if you stop there, which seems what you want to do, it did exactly what it was supposed to do and caught many in this so interesting idea. Thanks for your scenario and drawings, which are always lovely

it was a pleasure<3 thank you for enjoying the AU, the reactions, tags, asks and fics made it some of the loveliest memories I have of this fandom

#asks #vampire menace au #I dont know what to say anon like I legit had to take a step back for a moment after reading this #I dont think I can ever express just how much peoples reactions spurred me on and how happy those fics made me #I just wish I could send them off with a bang and not a whimper #though I guess that just means I am giving those three idiots off to you #yours to write and draw and theorize about for as long as you want to keep them #thank you for reading this silly little series

I've been trying to articulate this for a week, to no avail, so have all my tangled thoughts about those delicious angsty bits in The Need for Speed caper.

This may be the worst Team Red has done so far (as far as we know). They've had trouble with their missions before, they've had setbacks, they've occasionally been bruised and beaten down, but now both the theft failed and Zack and Ivy are in prison.

Then there are those lines from Ivy and Zack throughout the episode... the ones that at make you think they're maybe not as sure about their relationship with Carmen as you'd think. Like - you've got Ivy in prison, no fight left in her, more concerned about Carmen's disappointment and reaction than anything else ("maybe you should worry about what Carmen's gonna do to us. We let her down."). Later, Zack shows he took Carmen's reproaches very emotionally ("especially since Carm hates us."). And you know, they're all alone in the world. If Carmen decided to throw them off her "never ending tour", what would they do? Where would they go? They'd be back to square one. Obviously Carmen wouldn't do that, but clearly the siblings are... worried.

And the thing is- Carmen's not the only one looking for her family. When they get out of prison and Zack asks Sterling "we're family?"... He and Ivy have been alone for at least a few years. It's explicitly said in the previous episode they have no other family than each other. Between that and their racing dreams, it's easy to understand how Sterling's proposal feels like a dream come true.

And of course, for hurtful scenes, you've got Carmen chewing Ivy and Zack out. That was painful to watch. Carmen is stressed, she's mad, which makes sense, and while she's frustrated with Ivy and Zack Shadowsan keeps bugging her about them being amateurs and her needing to find better crew members, so she says very hurtful things in the heat of the moment. When we know how bad Zack and Ivy felt about the whole situation just moments before, this really paints a sad picture of the whole scene.

And you know Carmen's not thinking about this entirely rationally either - see her bringing up the headquarters completely unprompted when Shadowsan calls her. She's pressured to change a lot at the same time about the way she works : adding Shadowsan to the team, getting a headquarters, finding 'better' help. This is probably taking a bigger toll on her than it seems.

(Also, speaking of Carmen... Her little smile to Zack and Ivy at the end of the episode when they're talking to daddy Sterling. The way it looks awkward and forced because of course she supports them and wants their happiness, but. that doesn't mean it's not painful for her to accept her friends may very well leave her.)

One conclusion I want to take from the episode (and, I suppose, sort of what this episode's ending scene did) is that no, Carmen doesn't need new, more experienced and professional crewmembers. She needs friends. Family. Because that's what's been missing for her. And Shadowsan's not the only one thinking she needs a more professional crew - see Ivy's "we may need to face the fact we are better racers than we are thieves". But Carmen's not asking for more than that, actually! Ivy and Zack have saved their missions, saved her, many times in the past. They have their rough days but they get past them together.

#and of course i wish we'd ended up having shadowsan bond with zack and ivy the way we saw him bond with player #see their strengths and not only their weaknesses #recognize the essential role they play in their team - not just during the capers but outside of it too #one of my biggest gripes with the show (apart from. the ending.) #anyway this episode was a real goldmine for exploring the team red bonds #so much to think about! so much to theorize and read into! #there are many things to say but i am. very tired. and i'd need to actually think about it. #what this episode tells us about the characters and all that #carmen sandiego 2019 #csweekly

so.... gwyn. binx. my current theory now - we see she’s described as the sole survivor of the court of craft. yet people somewhat recognize gwyn as the blue fairy’s sister, and from the court of wonder, though now it makes sense why it’s possible rue didn’t recognize them. i’m thinking that whatever happened to the craft court, binx survived because of a miracle... the blue fairy, her “sister”, saved her, then took them to the court of wonder and helped her become gywndolin. and this is certainly all connected to why they feel so strongly about magic, and the miracles the blue fairy performs...

#this could also be tied into why the uh. high up wonder fey acknowledged her #idk there's just not enough INFO everyone EVERYTHINGA HGHHHH #acofaf #acofaf spoilers #like i dont think the court of wonder as a whole knows but im thinking blue fairy.... just the way shes talked about and the way gwyn talked #like SOMEONE in the court of wonder has to know #d20 #d20 spoilers #gwyndolin thistle hop #gwyn #i dunno..... #its hard to theorize ANYTHING with everyones secrets but boy all the characters are so juicy #gwyn/binx using she/they????

[gem-power]

In my opinion that Garnet sparked the "dancing" as I have noticed, like with Jasper and Lapis that it was mostly twirling like with Garnet. But if you look at Jasper and the corruption fusion then it wasn't dancing neither was the Bigger Ruby before Garnet formed they didn't dance or anything. It must be something of syncing together by any means but the dancing came later as a way to do it together instead of just because. But that's entirely my own hc.

In the case of Jasper’s fusion with the other corrupted jasper, I think what happened is she saw the other trying desperately to escape the cell, and used that desire as a way in. She probably focused her own mind on wanting to ‘escape’, or even just wanting to have control over the situation — which is something both the Jaspers wanted in that moment.

With regards to Garnet’s twirling dance… I may have to rewatch The Return and Jailbreak again, but I think Jasper didn’t actually see Sapph and Ruby fuse — because she entered the room, saw Garnet, then said “Great, you’re fused again?!” (or something v. similar.)

MY headcanon?? Is that, during the time that Steven was passed out and all the gems were put in jail cells, Jasper went to Lapis (or Peridot?) and questioned one/both of them about how the different gems fused. I can’t remember whether either of them witnessed fusion dancing, though…

Or perhaps!!! Since Jasper was there on Earth during the war….

There’s a big possibility she could have witnessed fusion dancing between Crystal Gem fighters. (!!!)

(Lapis also witnessed the war. Albeit for a short time.)
