years later someone buys the plot, turns on the lights and is suddenly worshipped as a sun god by a bunch of puppets falling apart at the seams

pov you break into the spooky abandoned Playfellow Studios building for shits and giggles

#lore tidbit! the plot is not available for purchase #the building is only Technically abandoned. its still very much Owned private property! #actually ive been thinking about the Other side of this au. the people's perspective #cause in this au at least they all Knew the puppets were alive #many employees - especially the ones working 'closest' to the puppets - put up a huge fight when the show got canceled #but it was either Disassemble (kill) Them or Lock Them Away #and honestly? killing the neighbors would've been somewhat of a mercy #but the employees had no way of knowing just how Bad things would get #wh lights out au #scribble salad #and i mean. the building's electricity bill remains paid. #the employees that felt really bad kept it paid over the years - devoting a bit of their income each to it #thinking the puppets would a) be awake & b) be able to figure it out #yeah that's actually a lil fun tragic tidbit as well - if any of the puppets had found the breaker.... #or found it and Messed with it a lil... flipped the right switch... #they would've gotten the lights back on no problem #but yeah anyway ive been Thinking about the employees' side of things a lot #might tie that in with act two. it'd make sense considering the shit that happens #well either they'd help the puppets out or they'd get shoved into one of the sinkholes by barnaby. so. #bc if we're talkin seriously here. the puppets are more likely to kill a person than worship them for any reason #they'd go full 'THREAT!! THREAT!! ELIMINATE THE THREAT!!! WE'RE NOT LOSING ANYONE ELSE!!!' mode

...okay, so I'm probably not the first person to notice this.

But gear's earing that he points towards when he says that he did the same ritual he wanted to help kuro with already on himself before:

actually looks pretty similar to the pieces of the necklace the count used to create the servamps:

The different pieces of the necklace seem to contain one demon each and the count used them to create the servamps.

So...did the count either learn this technique from the werewolves or is he possible even originally a werewolf himself? It would explain why he's immortal, that's why I'm wondering about this.

Gear says that the ritual is used to remove spirits, could it be that the count removed his own sins using the werewolf ritual and created the demons this way? But he went too far and removed too much unlike gear who only removed one part of himself? Him removing the sins from himself would also explain why he's so weird and doesn't understand other beings. As the sin demons say, they are a natural part of being a human and we have seen multiple times that denying their existence is harmful, removing them all from you would probably lead to you not being able to relate to other people anymore.

Maybe removing all these parts of himself is also why he has no appearance. Without his demons he's not a person anymore.

The count originally being a werewolf would also explain why he has magical abilities (gear can also use magic) before other magicians existed and why he's so anxious about certain people dying. Gear talks about how his immortality makes him sad because human friends do die, but unlike the count gear seems to accept death, grieves in a heathier way than the count and is able to move on and make new friends. Could also explain why his magic and creations are all strongly tied to the (full) moon.

Another similarity is that while werewolves apparently can't reproduce gear was able to have descendants by sharing his life force (it's mentioned in chapter 135 which isn't translated yet) with a woman and through her human children tsurugi is related to gear. Sigurd explained to nicco that the magicians came to be because the count let humans drink his blood, three survived, got magical ablities and became the ancestors of all human magicians:

Maybe the count is more of a werecat though. He and the sloth demon do seem to have a closer connection, even though the count's appearance changes depending on the person looking at him he does usually keep his tail and the tip looks exactly like the one of kuro's cat/lion form and similar to the the one of inner sloth's non-human form.

It was also stated multiple times that the sloth demon is the strongest. I wonder why that is. Servamp comments on the fact that being lazy is often actually a sign of depression/anxiety through kuro's arc, so maybe the count was depressed and that's why the sloth demon is the strongest? Basically the demons strength depends on how much the count suffered from the different sins? It would also explain why melancholy is so strong, I assume kuro refusing to see him no matter how many siblings he sent his way to tell him to come looking for the count made him extremely sad and probably even made him come up with the plan to have himself be killed and then put in the same body as kuro through the ritual.

I assume he was behind C3 ordering the servamps to kill him because he's the one who created the magicians and thus C3 and lily who is kind of working for him was probably the one who put the idea that the count needed to be killed into the head of his eve (aka a member of the alicein family who hold a lot of power in C3 basically since the beginning. I explained this in more detail in another post). The people from C3 even said that the count can only be killed if he wants to and yeah, kuro didn't truly kill him, but he did destroy his body and kuro seems to have met little resistance when he attacked the count. Which probably means the count wanted this to happen.

#servamp #...if the servamps/demons all came from the count and the magicians are all basically the descendants of the count #does that mean this truly is all just a huge family conflict #since basically everyone involved is somewhat related to the count?😅 #Sigurd says he's related to one of the three people who drank the counts blood #I'm still wondering if mahiru is special because he might have the blood of all three bloodlines #and C3 has a rule in place that forbids all three bloodlines from crossing #probably put in place by the count or lily #and that's why akira told nobody who the father of her child was #I still like my absolute crack theory that because mahiru might have “more” of the counts blood in him that he has no fixed appearance eith #But because he's so normal everyone perceives him as normal so nobody noticed until now that mahiru looks slightly different to all of them #honestly it would explain/excuse some questionable choices made by characters who as far as we know should be good people #Like why akira didn't tell anybody who the father was #why tooru tried to avoid being seen with mahiru in school by always saying he's to busy #Why tooru told mahiru not to tell the secret to anyone else #and why mahiru was raised as mundane as possible and as far away from C3 as possible #even why tooru kept his work for C3 secret from mahiru even after mahiru made the contract #and why he still didn't tell him the name of his father #If people know your relatives they start comparing you to them #If people knew that touma was mahiru's father they might expect mahiru to look like him #If people only knew mahiru was related to akira and tooru they would expect him to look like them #If people at school only knew mahiru but never met tooru before mahiru's appearance to them might be too different from tooru #Touma saying mahiru looks exactly like tooru doesn't disprove this crack theory either btw #Touma sees mahiru as tooru 2.0 and he's not 100% convinced he's actually mahiru's father so mahiru appearing as a copy of tooru makes sense #Just like mahiru would perceive himself as looking like akira and tooru because those are the only close relatives of his he knows #Sorry but I'm having too much fun with this crack theory #the twist that raising mahiru as the “ordinary high school student” was all a plot by his family #to keep people from noticing that they don't actually agree on what he looks like is too funny to me

I don’t think Elphelt is ready to fuck necessarily. She’s ready to get married. She wants to do everything possible to get someone to marry her and play out her dreamy romance fantasies. She does also say she wants to have kids and grandkids and great grandkids. But despite all that I’m not entirely convinced she knows what sex is tbh

#all three of the playable valentines are only like a year or so old. they were created quite recently in lore #Jack-O was given two halves of a soul of a 180+ y/o woman #so she knows some stuff. plus she’s with Sol all the time #Ram I think knows somewhat but doesn’t care. she likes burgers and puppies but still doesn’t get a lot of human things #Elphelt on the other hand has been fixated on getting married since before she knew she had human emotions #she might know but it’s funnier if she doesn’t. she’s literally younger

Juno Steel and the Terrible Waste.

'kay, let's be reasonable about this. Past Junoverse episodes have mostly just given a vague understanding about what will happen in the episode. Murderous Mask tells you basically nothing about the plot, only about the most important object. Prince of Mars? You learn who that is in the first five minutes. Midnight Fox? Only really relevant for the last few seconds.

Junoverse titles are not the biggest indicator of how an episode will go. There are some incredible titles, like Monster's Reflection, but even that is somewhat misleading — Juno spends those episodes learning that neither he nor Sarah are monsters.

so basically what i'm saying is the episode could still be happy letmedreammmmmmmm

#like it will be bad. no doubt about that. and i'm willing to give them the extra week because i wanna hear this man SOB. #but i really do think things could turn out somewhat well. maybe it's not actually a waste and the title is just to mislead us #we might still get slip. we might still have everyone alive. we might not come out of it happy but we will come out of it together #tpp #the penumbra podcast

[sorrelpaws]

mr sorrelpaws what's ur thoughts on the new rick and jerry centaur in the latest episode

my most normie opinion ever is that i thought it was kind of funny. the design is so weird in like a humorous way, and i think their deadpan delivery was silly ("do you not hear the symphony of atoms dying in space?"). i mean its definitely a wackier approach but i didnt hate it

#asks #rick and morty #in general i really liked this episode it was super funny #but anyway yeah ive seen a lot of people mention that they thought jerricky was weird #which is fair but i dont know. it just doesnt really feel THAT crazy compared to other stuff r&m has done #maybe im desensitized #and while im here might i add that i didnt even hate the somewhat minimal morty in this episode #its done in a believable way and realistically shoving him in anywhere wouldnt have added anything #its still leagues above how s6 treated him #plus he still exists as a character and behaves the way he normally would #even if he isnt 100% present He still acts like he Should

[flowery-king]

in the defanged philip, how does the golden guards work?

Somewhat differently (long-ish post)

As per canon, the Golden Guard is technically still the highest in the ranking compared to the other soldiers. But instead of being the top guy with all the stresses of being in charge, this is more of a prince-type position, if that makes sense. Like, Philip is the King and the Golden Guard is the prince that also has a bit of a say in what's to do [He still has responsibilities of course but not to the point where he gets a panic attack if he fails]

Since the death of Caleb was accidental instead of intentional in this AU, I feel like Philip would be a lot less focused on shaping Hunter or any previous Golden Guards into a 'better' version of Caleb and more just have them for company and a helping hand. Once they start getting an interest in wild magic (which they always do) he becomes a bit tenser and strict about rules. However, since Philip in this AU is slightly less of an idiot, he registers the pattern of interest in each grimwalker and lessens the reigns on the rules each time (not without extreme caution of course).

Most of the time Philip keeps Hunter busy by making puzzles for him to solve, especially when he was younger. (Think like Marcy and King Andrias from amphibia hah). Of course, at some point, Hunter started becoming interested in doing things like the other actual guards and started begging his 'Uncle' to go on missions with them too. Philip eventually gave in once Hunter became 16, but only after he was fully trained to be able to defend himself.

TLDR/ AU Hunter does not need therapy for being the golden guard... yet

#the added yet is because he will definitely need therapy after he finds out he's a clone of his 'Uncle's brother #and aslo all the other things Philip lied about #that might give him some trust issues to be fair #defanged philip au #really like the idea of Philip and Hunter bonding over puzzles - cause Philip is actually somewhat of a smart guy I guess - #and hunter is just always so determined to figure things out so like #yes. #reminder Philip still isn't the best parental figure in this AU - he tries but orphan don't know too much about good parenting ghggh #So Darius is still Hunter's main dad figure

[lovesickeros]

it is, frankly, criminal that no one has really gone into detail about what would happen in the imposter au if only the archons knew who you were..like, makes sense!! because they are archons, those closest to celestia. but the implications of an archon, who are usually very protective of their nations, having to fight them to protect the Creator because no one else sees you for who you are?? thats the good shit

like the difference of how archons who pretend to be normal people (zhongli + venti) would handle it vs archons who still directly rule over their nations (nahida, ei, tsaritsa) is *chefs kiss*

#sagau #genshin sagau #genshin impact sagau #sagau imposter au #zhongli #ei #venti #nahida #tsaritsa #did i write this just to psychoanalyze the tsaritsa again??? maybe #but i want 2 talk abt ei first bc. ma'am #unarguably the safest with ei. definitely one of the strongest (currently. we dont know abt previously) archons. #+ its. yknow. ei. miko would probably believe her scatterbrained gf and help you at least somewhat #but everyone knows the shogun. they know how strong she is. she'll have no trouble taking out any combatants who try to harm you #i mean sara got beat up by signora. she wouldnt really stand much of a chance against ei. but she might also be persuaded bc. well #shes still loyal to the shogun. it would take some EFFORT but you could maybe turn her to your side. #BUT THE TSARITSA......lordy #we dont have an accurate measure of her power but all it would take is just yoinking the gnosi and fucking off w you in tow #like harbinger or not its. the tsaritsa. with a bunch of gnosis. #shes going to punt each and every one of them like footballs into the afterlife #but its abt the DRAMA. shes suddenly lost everything shes worked so hard to build......just bc you popped down to teyvat for..what?? #fun???? just to watch her suffer?????? #she is not Nice but she isnt. that mean. shes just bitter and a little pissed that her harbingers kinda made her abandon her own NATION #bc they have rocks for brain apparently. shes firing every single one of them when its all over #i just think its funny making the one character directly against Celestia have to take care of a dumbass g-d after fleeing her own nation #all bc you just had to descend to teyvat (she is ignoring that u got eebied there against your will. give her a week okay) #tsaritsa having the worst time of her life babysitting her g-d whos too gay for their own good (stop running at the acolytes) #also i think zhongli's reaction would be funny bc he JUST got done handing liyue to the people......and now their hunting the creator #hes too old for this. he just wanted a nice retirement after being an archon for too damn long. #LET THE MAN REST

[creative-hanyou-girl]

I don't know if anyone else feels this way but I think a big reason why I'm so chill about the changes made to the PJO show from the books is because I kind of look at each other as their own seperate canon.

Like, I read a lot of anime and manga, and anime adaptations have a huge habit for changing plot points for various reasons, and as a fan of said anime and manga, I've found that I can enjoy both versions of the same story even with the differences when I look at them as their own universe or canon. That's not to say I don't want them to be faithful or true to the source material, but if a scene or situation plays out differently for a logical or entertaining reason, than I can still appreciate that deviation from the manga even if I still like the other original version of that part more. And I can even like the reversal way if I feel an anime does something better than even the manga. But if I want to, I can look at certain moments as more canon than others because I got 2 different versions of that same scene or moment.

And, I don't know, I kind of apply that reasoning to the PJO series as well, mainly with the books, the show, and even the musical (not the movies put that right back where it came from). So far I'm loving the TV show, and while I miss some of the things they changed (like the pink poodle), this adaptation really is doing a great job with staying true to the heart and spirit of the original book that I personally am not even really bothered by the changes, especially when I remember that the books will always still be there with it's own version, or canon, of events.

Like, I will say 1 thing I adore in the books that isn't really in the show is the fact that a lot of Percy and Annabeth's "rivalry" during TLT has more to do with the rivalry between Poseidon and Athena. I just really like on how this adds a level of "forbidden friendship/love" to their relationship 'cause I personally eat the forbidden relationship trope up, especially when it's done well like with Percabeth.

Yet, even if this isn't really the reason percabeth have beef with each other in the show, I can still appreciate and enjoy that according to the show's canon, they have issues because they genuinely have problems with each other as actual people rather than their parents' rivalry, because at the end of the day, that's the PJO TV show canon, and I can always turn to the books for that version of Percabeth's "rivalry", as that is the PJO book canon.

Same goes for the characters too. I will always have and love my dark haired Percy and blond haired Annabeth in the books, but I can also welcome and love Walker's Percy and Leah's Annabeth from the show. And so far, they along with Aryan are KILLING IT as those characters.

I can love both versions of the characters.

I can love both versions of the same story.

I can look at both versions as they own seperate canon or mix them together if I so wish too (especially since both versions of PJO are written by the same guy)

And that's ok. The adaptation doesn't have to be a complete copy of the books. It doesn't have to have things play out eactly the same way. The characters don't have to look exactly the way they are described as in the books. And that's ok. I will still always have the books to love and appreciate, but I can also start to love and appreciate the new adaptation for it's new spin and twists to the same story that sets it apart as it's own canon while still staying true to the spirit of its predecessor.

Anyway, sorry if I'm not making a lot of sense. I just think the people complaining about the changes in the show are looking at it all the wrong way. The show has it's own canon just as the books have their own canon, or even the musical. At the end of the day, isn't that kind of cool to have different versions of the same story and characters? Doesn't it give you so many more options to look at the story in different ways that you can prefer or choose from? Doesn't it give you new versions of canon that you choose from? And really, as long as the PJO adaptation, or any adaptation for that matter, stays true to the heart and spirit of the original story and characters, do the changes made really matter?

#anyway sorry for the long post #I've just been seeing a lot of people complaining about the PJO making changes from the books and I thought I give my 2 cents #& I thought about how the show dies make enough changes to certain events or plotpoints that you could look at it as its own seperate canon #and how that actually is kind of cool as it gives us another version of the same story and characters #it's actually really neat to have different versions of the same story ya know #its like. if I ever want the Percabeth that has more of a 'forbidden relationship' thing going on. there's always the book canon to fall on #likewise if I want the percabeth where they're rivals because they have genuine issues w/ eachother. there's the TV show. ya know? #and if I want the Athena that I can at least somewhat believe might actually care for Annabeth. there's the book canon #whereas if I want the Athena I straight up wanna strangle from the getgo. I now got the TV show for that😊 #same with the characters descriptions #I personally still imagine Percy and Annabeth as they are described in the books #but I am positvely loving Leah and Walker's portrayal of TV Percy and Annabeth so much. especially in these last few episodes. #and don't get me started on how much I love Aryan as Grover. he's the GOAT (literally🤭) #anyway thanks for coming to my ted talk #I just think its neat that Ive now got 2. even 3 versions of PJO canon that I can love together and individually at my disposal now #and I just think the people who are complaining about the show aren't seeing it that way and that's why they're whining about changes #like. chill guys. we still have the books. but now we also the show and musical to give us new versions of the same story and characters #and is that not amazing when you think about it? #percy jackson series #percy jackson and the olympians #percy jackson tv show #percy jackson #percy and annabeth #athena #annabeth chase #grover underwood #book vs show #percy jackson books #percy jackson musical #percabeth

The implication of Sonia choosing to see everyone as a coven is incredibly funny, but also really sad, local group of survivors made to do rituals in the moonlight because Sonia was sad and Souda is vaguely terrified a demon is going to eat him

Sonia's coven idea and Fuyuhiko's Partners in Crime idea aren't so different; both are stuff they know doesnt fly with the general public, that they are nonetheless very immersed in, and having people who are fine with being involved and won't react with scandalous shock is very important. It's kinda like, accept my most messed up part (that I know of) and we're in it for life.

That said I totally love the idea of her doing a Bonding Ritual (literal) with everyone to cement that feeling of belonging. Just for funsies! (Maybe somewhat in Gundhams memory), but it's a little ominous for everyone else. They'll do it! For her! But hhm....

Also, she will listen to their darkest- and I mean DARKEST- memories without judgement of any kind- not enthusiasm, quite, but like, interest in knowing what it means for them, how it changes them and how they've changed- so you know. Her morbidity helps sometimes.

#I feel like Sonia somewhat might lose her belief in the Pure and Hopeful after everything. So now it's all about #The dark blood bonds that tie them together... in a very lovely way. #Not an art #Take this with a grain a salt Sonia is still a but of an enigma to me

I love the Hannibal fandom and I am a Hannigram shipper, but I hate it when people intentionally or unintentionally demonise/mischaracterise the other characters to make Hannigram look better

Like yeah, nearly all characters have done shitty things but most of them aren’t inherently bad people. Just people struggling and not knowing how to deal with it because the situation is complex and/or they’re being manipulated in some way

Hannibal is inherently a more horrible person that the rest of the main cast and that’s fine! You don’t need to make them worse! His morals are fucked and that’s what makes him and Hannigram interesting!

Sorry for the rant, I’m tired and just needed to get this out

Edit: I’ll probably make a longer rant about this in the future, cuz there’s a lot of other shit I want to say
