Tech Returns?

So yeah, people are freaking out because there's only 4 more episodes left in The Bad Batch :( but more importantly is that enough time to bring Tech back?

If the answer is yes you might be delusional. Emphasis on might, it could happen, and Tech can live happily ever after with Phee but honestly, when has romance ever worked out in Star Wars?

If the answer is no then listen to this: Crosshair had two season’s worth of redemption, the tale of the brother who willingly killed and burned down innocents for the Empire of His own free will. If Tech is CX-2 then he could be the reverse of Crosshair, the brother stripped of personality who willingly(?) kills and burns down innocents for the Empire of free will(?) but instead of redemption they never get him back. Again they have to live with having their brother trying to kill them knowing they can't get him back.

So I did have another theory thing but I apparently wanted to do something sad, so:

We all know the scene in BotFA where Thorin wants Bilbo to be yeeted over the ramparts, right? Oki, good start.

So when I was going through TikTok and that scene came up with sad audio and stuff, in the caption they said about the ‘fear in Bilbo’s eyes’ or something along the lines, but look at this.

I don’t know what you guys see but when Bilbo looks up, I see hurt, sadness, maybe some shock- possibly disbelief. But what I see most of all is betrayal.

Like he can’t believe Thorin would do that to him. After all they’ve been through on the journey, he would just chuck him over the side because of a stupid shiny, glittering rock he gave to Thranduil and Bard in hopes to stop war and maybe help Thorin.

The other reason I don’t think it’s fear is because he did state to Gandalf that he wasn’t ‘afraid of Thorin’ with so much confidence. Which I feel also shows how he thinks Thorin wouldn’t do anything to him, but he does anyway. So yeah- the fact he isn’t scared of Thorin as well makes me believe that he doesn’t have fear on his face in this, it’s more hurt and betrayal at the fact Thorin would do him like this.

So yeah- there’s that. If you have any thoughts on this you’re free to share :) (and sorry the gif is rlly shit)

At the beginning of the year, Neil would make sure to save Todd a seat for every meal so Todd wouldn't feel like he's interrupting and getting in they way of Neil’s friend group. It was Neil's way of making him feel welcome.

Halfway through the story, Todd is confident enough to get to 'his' seat right away even when Neil’s away on rehearsals.

After 15th of December, Todd made a point of saving Neil a seat at every meal. None of the other poets ever mentioned it, but it hurt. They all knew Neil wouldn't sit there ever again. That was Todd's way of grieving (a way of showing Neil he's welcome to come back to them too).

ig that's just pointlessly painful

Okay but like i have bad news for hazbin hotel fans...

The egg bois weren't trying to redeem themselves, sir pentious w a s. Thats why he got to heaven. Its not that he just /died/ he specifically died during a deed to save his friends, after weeks - months - of redemption attempts.

The egg bois never tried to redeem themselves. They just followed whoever gave them orders. They need to be minions, not coworkers or whatever the fuck.

They wouldnt be in heaven. Chances are if they were gonna show up in heaven, they would've already. He wasnt alone on that ship. He was at arrival.

Kit craving touch but not being able to trust people enough to be comfortably intimate with others is really sad. So she suggests a FWB relationship with the person she trusts most in the world, only for it to leave her wanting love she feels like she's never going to get. :(

I mean, yeah. That’s pretty much the crux of it

I've been thinking a lot lately about how Kabru deprives himself.

Kabru as a character is intertwined with the idea that sometimes we have to sacrifice the needs of the few for the good of the many. He ultimately subverts this first by sabotaging the Canaries and then by letting Laios go, but in practice he's already been living a life of self-sacrifice.

Saving people, and learning the secrets of the dungeons to seal them, are what's important. Not his own comforts. Not his own desires. He forces them down until he doesn't know they're there, until one of them has to come spilling out during the confession in chapter 76.

Specifically, I think it's very significant, in a story about food and all that it entails, that Kabru is rarely shown eating. He's the deuteragonist of Dungeon Meshi, the cooking manga, but while meals are the anchoring points of Laios's journey, given loving focus, for Kabru, they're ... not.

I'm sure he eats during dungeon expeditions, in the routine way that adventurers must when they sit down to camp. But on the surface, you get the idea that Kabru spends most of his time doing his self-assigned dungeon-related tasks: meeting with people, studying them, putting together that evidence board, researching the dungeon, god knows what else. Feeding himself is secondary.

He's introduced during a meal, eating at a restaurant, just to set up the contrast between his party and Laios's. And it's the last normal meal we see him eating until the communal ending feast (if you consider Falin's dragon parts normal).

First, we get this:

Kabru's response here is such a non-answer, it strongly implies to me that he wasn't thinking about it until Rin brought it up. That he might not even be feeling the hunger signals that he logically knew he should.

They sit down to eat, but Kabru is never drawn reaching for food or eating it like the rest of his party. He only drinks.

It's possible this means nothing, that we can just assume he's putting food in his mouth off-panel, but again, this entire manga is about food. Cooking it, eating it, appreciating it, taking pleasure in it, grounding yourself in the necessary routine of it and affirming your right to live by consuming it. It's given such a huge focus.

We don't see him eat again until the harpy egg.

What a significant question for the protagonist to ask his foil in this story about eating! Aren't you hungry? Aren't you, Kabru?

He was revived only minutes ago after a violent encounter. And then he chokes down food that causes him further harm by triggering him, all because he's so determined to stay in Laios's good graces.

In his flashback, we see Milsiril trying to spoon-feed young Kabru cake that we know he doesn't like. He doesn't want to eat: he wants to be training.

Then with Mithrun, we see him eating the least-monstery monster food he can get his hands on, for the sake of survival- walking mushroom, barometz, an egg. The barometz is his first chance to make something like an a real meal, and he actually seems excited about it because he wants to replicate a lamb dish his mother used to make him!

...but he doesn't get to enjoy it like he wanted to.

Then, when all the Canaries are eating field rations ... Kabru still isn't shown eating. He's only shown giving food to Mithrun.

And of course the next time he eats is the bavarois, which for his sake is at least plant based ... but he still has to use a coping mechanism to get through it.

I don't think Kabru does this all on purpose. I think Kui does this all on purpose. Kabru's Post Traumatic Stress Disorder should be understood as informing his character just as much as Laios's autism informs his. It's another way that Kabru and Laios act as foils: where Laios takes pleasure in meals and approaches food with the excitement of discovery, Kabru's experiences with eating are tainted by his trauma. Laios indulges; Kabru denies himself. Laios is shown enjoying food, Kabru is shown struggling with it.

And I can very easily imagine a reason why Kabru might have a subconscious aversion towards eating.

Meals are the privilege of the living.

So I have two sad Bilbo theories/headcannons:

• So we know Bilbo’s parents are dead, and we don’t know how long for. So I’m guessing they died around when Bilbo was in his 40’s to even maybe late 30’s (but that may be pushing it). But so we know he’s gotten used to be alone in his smial due to his parents passing, and he’s not the most sociable, so he could be touch starved.

(This bit more headcannon I think) and then when he’s suddenly taken out of his lonely, touch deprived life onto the journey with the dwarves, we see they’re very “touch is our love language” kinda thing to put it. And so when the company finally all accept him (I see this mainly after him saving Thorin) they like pat him on the shoulder, brush arms with him, just little touches to show they care for him. He doesn’t know how to like respond to it so every time it happens he freezes up and feels awkward, not knowing how to respond so just pretends it didn’t happen.

I like to think after awhile the company realise this and so try to show him more affection but not overwhelmingly. In a gradual way that so Bilbo gets used to it until he feels comfortable with being touched.

• So back with Bilbo’s parents being dead- so we actually don’t know when they died. It could’ve been quite recent and so Bilbo could still be mourning his parents deaths when on the journey with the dwarves.

I just realised I kept referring to Bungo and Belladonnas deaths happening together. They didn’t it’s just easier to word it and not add more words to the post.

The siblings ever ‼️

#persona 5 #goro akechi #futaba sakura #ame draws #the siblings theory is SO good #it’s like one of thos hc that are so good that I just made it into my own canon #like it just makes sense to me #tbf the implications of them being siblings are pretty sad #but at the same time I’d love to see them getting closer and… unpacking all of that #and generally speaking like #their canon relationship is bad for obvious reasons so this all makes this theory the most appealing to me?? #like everything surrounding it is so good
