"Please stop asking how I got in here," the white haired kid said, annoyance laced in his voice, "All I want to know is if any of you can do detective work in the supernatural world!"

Constantine just barely opened his mouth before the kid turned on him, "Not you! You have terrible reviews!"

Bruce tensed as Lazarus green eyes locked on him, "How about you? You're the worlds greatest detective, right? I know you probably won't take gold as payment since Bruce Wayne is your sugar daddy, but I can offer up information on the Infinite Realms instead!"

Batman, calm and collected even as Green Arrow and Flash snickered from across the room, "Infinite Realms?"

Phantom grinned, "Is that an agreement? Cause Prince Psaro could really use your help. He has so many questions, and the answers may save his life. You want to save the life of a teenage boy surrounded by demons and monsters, don't you?"

Bruce stared at the teen, not looking away even with Constantine motioning not to agree, Bruce nodded.

And in a moment, they were gone. They reappeared in a grand hall with a ruby eyed teenager looking impossibly small from his place on the massive throne. Silver hair shined oddly in the light of the purples flames that danced in the sconces, making the boy seem more ethereal.

"Hey Psaro!" The white haired kid from before greeted, "I brought you a detective like you asked. Don't forget you have to teach me magic now!" The first teen vanished without a trace leaving Batman and what he now recognized as an angsty goth alone together.

As it turns out Psaro had many questions and offered to pay him a generous amount in gold each day.

Some of his questions include:

What kingdom was my human mother a princess of?

Why can't I remember key information from my childhood, such as my brothers very existence?

I was framed for the murder of all of the "Chosen Heros" loved ones. How do I prove im innocent before he comes to take off my head?

Why do Rose's tears shatter?

Is there a way to stop his younger brother from destroying the world without caging him or killing him?

Ect.

Bruce has his work cut out for him, but between the mysterious white haired kid popping in now and then to give him cryptic conversations, the team on litteral monsters he was given to defend himself with, and his access to royal libraries and vaults this might not be so bad

DAY 75: onehat

#codacheetah #isat #loop isat #siffrin isat #isat act 6 spoilers #twohat spoilers #isat spoilers #yea im tagging the onehat post twohat spoilers. watch me #..do we know what time of day it is when siffrin goes to the favor tree?#i always imagined the evening for some reason.#um so anyways. hey do you guys ever think about onehat. do you think about it #do you ever think about how siffrin never learning about loop and never getting closure with them #is just as valid of an ending as twohats. you dont have to get twohats. loop getting some catharsis isnt necessary to siffrin's narrative.#they asked to be here. they were here to help siffrin. and they did. and it ended #that's it.#i've always wondered if loop saw siffrin perform the ritual for them #i wonder if it would comfort them or not. if you ask them if they're a ghost they say yes (and no) after all #the tree is their grave.#something something from main character to stage director to sponsor to corpse #and with how arcane the prereqs for twohats are. yes you can get them naturally on a first playthrough but it's definitely not the majority #experience especially playing blind.#to give loop an ending you have to reach back in with both hands and grasp at that connection #i dont rlly know how to articulate it but it makes me feel a kind of way tbh. you only learn the prereqs (w/o guidance) by talking to loop #very frequently and paying attention to the hints they drop to you about the coin. labor of love situation #self love. siffrin reaching back for loop. We Are Getting Out Together Bitch #Is this anything i dont know that it is #idk onehat fascinates me a lot and im not even gonna touch on the onehats playthroughs where u actually do get the prereqs #i think there is a slight tendency among some fans tocharacterize loop as. more vindictive than they are? i guess?#it's easy to stare down loop's big twohats breakdown and see them bare their fangs and look into their anger #but loop's willingness to fade into nothing and leave siffrin alone shouldnt be forgotten i dont think

(slight spoilers for Book 7, tho i take it a lot of us have seen Hornton's overblot form + mama Draconia's design at this point lmao. also i'm calling her Draconimom until we get a confirmed eng spelling for her name)

Overblot mask analysis – Malleus + Dark Mirror v2

it's probably been brought up already but i'm gonna be annoyed w/ myself if i leave overblot hornton out of my overblot mask analyses, it's pretty straightforward overall but STILL

Similar to Vil, the main body of Malleus' mask takes on the shape of a cowl, echoing that of Maleficent's own headgear. This widow's peak-esque shape was already present in the design of Malleus' forehead scales (which aren't normally visible), but the mask better emulates Maleficent by bringing the point down closer to the brow line.

The central V of the mask has a fiery exterior trim; on closer inspection, the "flames" appear to be made solely of shapes based on Malleus' (and Maleficent's) horns. In comparison, the motifs on the further edges of the mask seem to be just basic fire patterns.

Arcs of spikes & scales make up both the interior trim of the mask and the portion connecting to Malleus' eyes. These directly mimic the spines and purple underbelly of Maleficent's dragon form. (The scales on his cheekbones don't correlate to any part of Maleficent's face, humanoid or dragon, and are likely there just to complement this part of the mask.)

Of note is the spiked line extending from the peak of the mask down over Malleus' nasal bone. Rather than representing part of Maleficent's face design, it appears to take after a different source–

–the main body of the mask is literally his mom's crown. which hurts a bit! own it tho ig, like hey if he's gonna be under so much pressure due to being prince then he might as well get an overblot mask to represent that. "heavy is the head that wears the crown," etc

Anyway this is like a field day for me bc Draconimom's design is literally so fantastic to analyze. I'm getting hit with the urge to make diagrams. Do u realize how rarely this happens

1. The horns? The horns. I don't think I have to go over this one again. However, the little bumps near the horns on the mask could signify the two…ear guards(?) of the crown.

2. The upper two curved prongs lined w/ dots and spikes on the Dark Mirror's mask match up strikingly well with Draconimom's pauldrons! The lower two prongs bend in the opposite direction, and seem to be there just to balance out the top pair.

3. Like the tattered edges of Maleficent's robes, the lacy edges of her cape could easily be compared to the fiery edges on the upper half of the mask. Comparatively, the frills along the bottom of the mask are distinctly rounder and less flame-like, which matches up well with the softer, almost fluffy-looking edges of Draconimom's skirt. The netting on the mask could then, logically, represent the fabric of the cape/skirt as though they're being dramatically flared out.

(Off-topic, but: if you look closely at the lace cape, you'll see roses worked into the design! This isn't part of the analysis, I just think it's neat owo)

4. Just under the mask's central 4-pointed star, there are 2 small extrusions on each side. These bear an uncanny resemblance to the 2 main lines used in the flow of the embellishments on Draconimom's bodice(?), with the upper one curling upwards while the lower one is just slightly curved.

5. I cannot stress this enough. I'm putting this in image format just so you can see how much I'm not joking. The central line of the mask is not just repeatedly utilized in Draconimom's outfit, it's literally integral to her overall character design. (It's a little hard to see due to her default pose unfortunately, as it interrupts the linear flow)

tl;dr get in losers we're getting hornton's mom out of that mirror

#YES this is basic design analysis but i can't go into the twst tag rn w/o seeing More Spoilers so i'm trying to amuse myself #there are a lot more instances of the central line of the mask in Draconimom's design but those 4 are the biggest examples #twst #twisted wonderland #diasomnia spoilers #twst chapter 7 spoilers #twst meta #dark mirror #malleus draconia #twisted rambling

I know a lot of us latched onto Charlock and Colin right off the bat, and they do have the air of holding back wells of history that are very intertwined with the political games of Calorum, which is intriguing and engaging and I'm looking forward to seeing what they're up to during the time jump and beyond, as well as finding out what exactly their webs of intrigue involve.

However, I am also in love with the other three and how much they feel like they're still on the outside of the political games, even if they are ensnared in them.

Amangeaux has been a queen for a span of time, but always a foreigner all the same—she seems cut off from the Vegetanian goings-on, though it's unclear how much that was the case when her husband was alive, and at the same time, she does not fall back onto playing the game when challenged like someone who is more trained in that might.

Karna is a spymaster, yes, and seems plenty knowledgeable about webs of information and the world's cruelty, but she's still a child. She does not have a large pool of experience to draw on, and she has never seen the scale of conflict that is coming up close. She most of them all believes that she does understand conflict and political games, while also believing herself above it, but at the end of the day, she is too young to truly understand the war that is coming.

Deli is the child of a leader of a nation, but that nation is viewed still as an outsider among those nations who consider themselves more civilized, and he is very trusting in spite of the training that he has been brought up in. He's an adult, but he exhibits a similar amount of naivete as the Rocks twins will twenty years from now, as heirs to kingdoms who are eager to make their own way and find freedom, without fully understanding the weight of responsibility that is settling upon them.

All of these characters exhibit varying degrees and kinds of innocence and naivete, and at the end of the day, for all of the comedy of the concept, this is a war story. War stories, particularly ones about how the world changes in times of war, require a certain amount of naivete, in order to contrast how brutal the world can become against what is lost in the process.

#dimension 20 #the ravening war #trw spoilers #trw meta #just to keep SOME semblance of order around here. like jfc.#welcome to those who followed me cuz I started posting about trw. I do not ever shut up and I don't intend to start now.#buy my silence for 8000 dollars a month i'll stop etc etc (narrator voice: she would not.)#tbh there is something to be said about just how impassive brennan was while sitting in character as charlock during the feast #like it's really interesting. a lot of the rest of the cast seem surprised or shocked but #brennan (who does react like !!! :O when out of character) sits and acts as though he's holding his staff and remains impassive #anyway I am just very excited to see how these two mindsets play off each other

Genuinely the fans who are like "ohhhh worm is so cool ohhh power and escalation" BAFFLE me. Especially when they're hardcore Who Would Win numerical power rankers. Like

I think it's a case of being blinded by the finale. You blow up ONE multiverse...

Also, I think Jordan is overly hard on themselves. Yeah, hindsight is 20/20. But when you spend your whole life being told that who and what you are is wrong, even the most tainted hand feels better than nothing. And I think that’s what makes Jordan’s character so interesting. Because if they had that support at home and surrounding them, Birk wouldn’t have been able to easily manipulate their perspective.

In the third episode Jordan says “Birk didn’t care what I looked like, all he cared was if I was the best…” and it’s very telling of their character. Because that’s all they ever wanted. Someone to not care which form they had.

#and you can argue that their friends don’t care #but if you get into the nitty gritty of it #Jordan spent all their lives after their powers emerged constantly trying to fit into a mold that the people around them wanted them in #their dad wanted them to be a him #a lot of their s/o’s had preferences #some of the most important people in their life #and their career as a future supe spend a lot of time making them choose #it doesn’t just go away when they have a few friends who don’t care #gen v spoilers #gen v jordan #gen v amazon #jordan li #text #*

**persona 3 spoilers**

it's pretty much infer-able that ryoji really didn't like what he was doing (or the being he is)

but I honestly wouldn't mind if my friends turned out to be someone like him. I feel the protagonist would also say "I don't care" about stuff like that. He's really, really sweet and I think that's what matters the most.. and the MC would've thought the same.

The new graphics did him well, he's very expressive the way he's supposed to be! He looks really sad when he's sad in his new 3D model he has, and he looks like a puppy out in the rain when he is. He suffers a lot and that's only because he's kind enough to have a heart... I wish the best for this guy too.

#ryomina #persona 3 reload #persona 3 #p3p #ryoji mochizuki #he looks really sad when he is #he deserves a lot of love #persona 3 reload spoilers #long post #now..I'll be off to see the ending.. today is the day #I am aware of what happens since-for-years but #that's why I've been having such a hard time bringing myself to see it.. o<-<#it'll happen soon though #doodle #spoilers #ryoham

*WANDERSONG SPOILERS*

I wanna talk about Audrey, the so-called 'Hero.' Now I'm not that good at writing or posting meta but man oh MAN Audrey is actually so much more interesting than I initially took her to be; she's actually deeply insecure about not only herself but how the world perceives her AND has a skewed, dare I say, SUPERFICIAL, idea of what it means to truly be the hero. She primarily sees it as a role she has to play or fulfill, rather than something someone chooses to be, and while she "knows" herself to be the hero, she doesn't actually BELIEVE she is A hero in herself. Even further is that she WANTS to be The Hero but is so dyed in the proverbial wool in both her insecurities and her perception of her role as The Hero that she doesn't want to stop, she wants to fulfill the role she was given so bad that she broke her promise to the Bard when she said she wouldn't kill anymore Overseer spirits upon killing the King of Hearts because, how she sees it, 'that's how it is.' What was interesting is that Audrey spoke about her dislike of being told what to do and where to go when Eyala was acting as her guide, that she found it demeaning that she couldn't think or act for herself, but was that her interpretation of being told to back down by Eyala? After all, Eyala did mention to the Bard that when she warned Audrey, Audrey felt that Eyala was 'taking something away from her', and that something was the role of The Hero, without which she would still be a nobody that no one saw or knew or cared about.

She wants to be the Hero and is so attached to that role and the adoration it had brought her and wants to fulfill that role because she believes that what truly makes her and that without the title of Hero and the Sword and the powers, she can't be A hero. Her insecurities tell her that she can't be A hero outside of being THE Hero, and she can't understand not only how the Bard had gotten so far but how he continues to have hope, despite his own innate feelings of despondence and his own melancholy. But he keeps going because of his hope, hope that he can still save the world and that there is always another, better way, a way that one can choose. A different way to be a hero, if you will. And I personally think that the Bard's approach to being a hero, it's confounding to Audrey for many reasons, one of those being that he wasn't chosen by anyone or anything to be a hero per se, but he chose to be a hero HIMSELF, despite everything acting against him, including Audrey herself. The Bard admitted he's jealous of Audrey being chosen to be the hero and her sword and her powers, not knowing that his innate goodness and his CHOICE to be good make him a hero, without the need for a sword or a title or a higher calling.

I honestly love how Wandersong toys with the definition of the word 'hero', and not only subverts the typical fantasy RPG hero archetype with Audrey, right down to the outfit and the magic sword, but DOUBLE subverts her; she could have been a twist villain who was simply a villain masquerading as a hero, but even this was subverted by making her not a hero, but not quite a villain either, but an insecure girl who sees herself as a nobody and is so obsessed with fulfilling a role that makes her a somebody that she's going to end up destroying the world and herself (both figuratively and literally), but is blinded by her self-perception and insecurities so that she can't see anything within herself that's heroic, making her both a mirror and a foil for the Bard.

I'm not sure where I was going and I know Wandersong isn't the first game to do this but I love how it was done here so far (I'm starting Act Seven), not least because I hated Audrey at first but she's actually growing on me, as much as I hate to admit it, not least that she actually resonates with me much more now this revelation has come about. I was pleasantly surprised and now I want to study this girlfail mess of a human being under a microscope.

#wandersong #wandersong spoilers #I might be rambling her I think #but I have a lot of thoughts #like a LOT of thoughts #thinky thinky thonks #thonks of the big variety #I honestly love how the game subverts so many archetypes and definitions but not in a negative or pessimistic or otherwise crude way #there is still hope and goodness to be found #and many of the characters are still good people deep down #in fact the way Wandersong subverts character archetypes reminds me a lot of Okami #Okami presents a lot of archetypes who present as those archetypes at first but go so much deeper than what we see them for at face value #of course I'm gonna say Waka but really the whole cast is a wonderful example of how these archetypes can be subverted but not in a crude o #pessimistic way #ramble over #my brainpoops #gaming shenanigans

People who say Bakugou should be punished for telling Deku to kill himself and Make fun of him need to realize he’s been dead for more than a year… that’s all.

LOL yeah like i think he's received the worst possible punishment for his actions ... which is. u know. dying

it's also so silly bc have u ever encountered a 14 year old. everyone was or will be 14 at some point. and it's common knowledge that u're absolutely ur worst self in middle school. it can literally only go up from there

not everyone has told someone else to kill themselves at 14 but i assure u everyone has done stupid shit as a 14 year old and i think most normal people would give literal children some grace regarding their bad behavior. bc most normal people would understand that ur identity and personality at 14 shouldn't be taken as a true reflection of ur character. bc u were 14. and u're irrational and u're still growing and ur brain is still developing. and more importantly, u didn't know shit. and u thought u did and that's why u were stupid and made mistakes and said dumb shit.

"but he was a bully and that's why he deserves to suffer severely and painfully for the rest of his life" these ppl are lucky bkg isn't real; if u're older than 14 and know better yet say this about a real 14 year old i think that says more about u than the kid. u will be put on a list of some kind

#sick and tired of ppl thinking bkg's 14 y/o self means literally anything anymore #like hey man. yeah. maybe in s1.#it's also telling that ppl think characters don't??? develop??? and to a more alarming extent they don't think PEOPLE develop??????#when change is very real and normal and expected thing??? literally EVERYONE changes???????#u cannot look at me dead in the eyes and tell me u are the exact same person u were at 14 bc good golly i would sure hope not!#most ppl and i mean a good majority of ppl become better as they age bc they learn things and gain perspective #and if u can understand that (this is a very easy concept to grasp) then u can understand that bkg too is capable of change #and has changed!!! a lot!!!#so yeah if someone comes at me with the 'he told deku to kill himself!!!!! he should die!!!!!!!' argument #i'm gonna automatically assume they don't know how to read and think. sorry #asks for becki #bnha manga spoilers #mha manga spoilers

Tango didn't know.

And by the gods, did Jimmy finally believe that ignorance was bliss.

When he'd crumpled to the ground and found himself dead -- when he'd respawned and met those burning eyes, he knew it to be true.

Jimmy knew that pity laid behind those features, but it was different -- he knew it was different. Tango didn't look at him like some pathetic, wet cat outside the back of the pub, waiting to be fed the discarded scraps from the night's evening rush. He wouldn't offer him something he wouldn't offer himself. There was more to the way his eyebrows tilted up -- the way his voice rose and fell with his apology.

And oh, did it make his heart flutter.

Jimmy didn't know the last time someone didn't poke fun at him for not having enough -- not being enough. He couldn't recall the last time someone ever looked at him the same. And, while he knew it was all just jokes, sometimes it hurt. Hell, a lot of the times it hurt. Who could he even call his real friends at this point?

But the way Tango put his arm around his shoulders, pulled him close, and promised to do this together. The way they both joked and laughed, the way nothing was at the expense of the other without a jab at oneself. The way the warmth from Tango radiated onto Jimmy, fueling him not like the coal from the mine but rather a warm, cosy campfire evening, coddled in the company of someone who was truly meant to hold him.

The way they were equal.

Jimmy knew things would be different this time. If someone were to pick a fight, they'd fight it together. There was no more doing this alone, there was no more "Get Jimmy first, he's the weakest!" -- for even if they went down, they would do it together.

And he was sure -- absolutely sure -- that he would be content with that. Even if their house wasn't pretty, or they never had the best armour. Without each other, they were each doomed to their own -- the first death, life without meaning.

Even if their union meant that those fates would combine, Jimmy was still sure. This was right. Everything was (finally) right.
