once upon a time, when I was in the process of calculating death stats, I was chatting with a friend about it and they asked me who the most innocent player in 3rd life was. an interesting question, but first we had to define what "innocence" was.

in the end, we decided that "innocence" was, more or less, "goodness." it was primarily based on whoever had the fewest kills, but to narrow things down further, other factors would be considered. did they ever try to kill people? were they loyal to their allies? did they steal? cheat? grief? who truly didn't deserve what happened to them?

according to that definition, the most innocent player in 3rd life was Jimmy. as you all know, he was also the first one out.

on to last life. Jimmy is out first again, yes, but someone actually narrowly beats him for the Most Innocent Player award.

it's Tango.

and then, in double life, the two of them are soulmates. it's as if the universe took the two players who would not play its game viciously enough, brutally enough, cruelly enough, and doomed them by giving them each other. it cursed them for their innocence because the life series is not meant to be a game of kindness and mercy. it is not a game of making vows with your ally. it is not a game of giving your life away to save others. it is a death match. and so, for their goodness, they will die first. together.

#just two guys doomed by the narrative together #they're a perfect ally match honestly #jimmy has a history of preferring small alliances #and tango is so incredibly loyal and will never ever back out on a promise #and the soulbound is a promise in a way #a promise to keep each other alive #and well. they tried their best. #double life #life series #team rancher #overrainylyzed

New you're doing great sweetie. He's telling them all the shit they needed to hear.

They are the reason Non went through all of that shit. If it wasn't for them Non would be alive and probably ok. He wouldn't have been in debt, raped, or worked to death. Even Phee, while I do think he did love Non and does regret his lack of actions, betrayed his own boyfriend and when he finally wanted to do something it was too late.

New lost everything and threw away what he still had left to hunt down answers and get revenge. He really does not care about ethics anymore. Why should he care when nobody cared about being a good person with Non?

I'm fully prepared for him to just annihilate everyone .

The funniest thing about THG is that most of the happenings could've been prevented if the Gamemakers didn't try to renege on the rule change. If they just allowed Katniss and Peeta to win at the same time without trying to milk as much melodrama as possible out of their star-crossed-lover story, Katniss wouldn't have done that shit with the berries. And the uprisings would've arguably been kept at a minimum.

So really, it's their fault for trying to push their luck.

#the hunger games #katniss everdeen #peeta mellark #thg #thg series #suzanne collins #like literally what did they expect to happen...that's what y'all get for trying to do that extra shit #instead of just letting these two kids go back home #there's only so much that the human spirit can take before it begins to fight back #they should've known this and acted accordingly. but they didn't #so now the capitol has fallen. #like...did they really expect Katniss and Peeta to just try to kill each other after they did so much to try to keep the other alive? #thats what that Capitol gets for focusing too much on spectacle and trying to create as much suffering for the districts/victors as possibl

Can we talk about the fact that when obi wan was listing off the qualities Leia got from Anakin he listed the ones that were so commonly seen as problems to the Jedi. To them he was too outspoken, too reckless, and felt too deeply. But not to obi wan. He names the qualities that made padmé fall in love with Anakin in the first place and the qualities that always made him so proud. He sees Anakin as passionate because he loves deeply and hard, not because he was too attached. He calls him fearless because he was ready to do anything to help others, not because he was reckless. And he sees him as forthright because he stood for what he believed, always, not because he was outspoken or out of place. Obi wan doesn't see these qualities as flaws, but gifts and calls them that to Leia so she knows that they aren't to be ashamed of and that she should be as proud of those qualities as Anakin was, and I think that's so beautiful.

#disney this is my hill and i will die on it #obi wan finally accepted that anakin was dead so he keeps him alive in memory #obi wan needs a hug #uncle obi wan #obi wan kenobi #anakin skywalker #leia organa #padme amidala #padme naberrie #obi wan show #obi wan series #obi wan and anakin #star wars

stories where the main character is a hopeful, optimistic pacifist in a bleak world usually takes one of two routes: one, everything works out for them. the world shifts to their kindness and they’re allowed easy routes on account of their morality. two, they’re torn apart by the story for being naive. their hope is something to mock and beat out of them and they can only grow once they abandon it.

then there is trigun.

trigun says that hope will hurt you. you will let people into your life that you shouldn’t have and they will leave you with scars. your obsession with trying to minimize the necessary conflict right in front of you will cause more damage than if you had just fought that battle. you can’t run from your past and all the times you’ve tried to be kind and failed. you can’t avoid hurting other people and you will have to live with that for the rest of your life.

but—

trigun says that there is so much kindness in all of us, and we are more likely to act on love than hate. no matter how many dark nights you’ve cried through, there are brighter tomorrows worth living for. if you want to be good, you can be good. love is what connects us and connection is how we save ourselves. we have to believe in each other. you are made of love. love is all we have.

#trigun means so much to me man. #it's about the very real consequences of pacifism in a way that i've seen other series ever tackle before #despite the fact that the audience can sympathize with his morality things...don't usually work out for vash. #by not taking action things often become worse and his guilt compounds further #but. but! #it is very telling that the villain of the series is the one who's made up his mind that an entire group of beings are inherently cruel #while it is the hero of the series who has seen that species' cruelty but fights for its kindness that he has seen too #vash's love is what makes him who he is. it's what makes him good #it's all that keeps him alive #and trigun invites you to share that with him #trigun #vash the stampede #millions knives #wolfwood #man.

I'm so sorry

#otgw #over the garden wall #the beast #honestly I don't even think he is scary anymore #I can rant about how funny and absurd his plot is for hours #Like...remember how the fandom decided that he keeps finding and masterminding different lantern keepers? #the thing is - IT WAS NEVER THE CASE #the woodsman just swung his axe on the guy in the comics and this silly creature went ! and dropped the only thing keeping him alive #And then the Beast had to come up with this fairy tale about the Woodsman's daughter being in the thing so the crazy dude won't shattert it #BUT OH WAIT the woodsman decided that he is going to keep the lantern to himself if that's the case - good job brainiac #and the beast even tried to steal the lantern from him a few times in the series but he had to be sneaky about it #because well shit the guy still has this axe with him #AND THEN WHEN WIRT GOT THE LANTERN IN HIS HANDS WHAT DID THE BEAST DO? #he decided to trick him with the same freaking story that got him into this mess in the first place #He is a girlfailure

Honestly hate how Annabeth doesn't get to keep majority of her items (ie. Daedalus' laptop)

#it annoys me so much because some of them were really unique and could've been used really well #The video shield (From TLO and never used again in the main books) was such a cool concept and was made by Beckendorf #So it could've been like a memory of him #No. Rick destroys it in a side story #And her laptop given to her by the greatest inventor alive a symbol of how ideas will get passed down from generation to generation #Lost in hell #Her knife that her adoptive brother gave her when she was seven years old a symbol of their familial bond #Also lost in hell #That one infuriates me #That trio was the most important one in the og series #but now that Luke's dead lets not keep the knife he gave to his sister because... I don't know she can't have things from dead people? #Why can't Annabeth keep things from dead people? #That's the question I'm getting from writing this #Rick I am speaking directly to you #Why do you hate the deceased? #annabeth chase #percy jackon and the olympians #pjo #do i tag this as rr crit #I'll do it to be safe #rr crit

those cat seesters

still figuring out how to draw and color cats but I think I really like how these gals turned out

in my mind squirrelflight is fluffy like their dad while leafpool takes after their mom

#I tried to keep them as close to their book descriptions as possible #though squirrelflight could probably be a darker ginger #I haven’t read past the second series so they’re both still alive and still sisters and still happy yes #me art #warrior cats #leafpool #squirrelstar #squirrelflight #warrior cats redesign #warriors #warriors fanart #warrior cats fanart

This is just a baseless headcannon, but I want to believe that all the people Cinder killed are alive (In a very generous definition of the term) in that Grimm arm of hers. And they torment her in her dreams.

Some parallels we've seen throughout the show - Part 2

The wonderful @wen-kexing-apologist came through and sent me all these pictures and showed some parallels I didn't even notice, especially the wrist grab. Thank you so much! May our Verse agenda continue to reign!

1. Sparring with your lover + there's a wrist grab here too

2. The consensual peaceful wrist grab

3. Using their powers
