holyfrick. wait. kaveh. he's kinda so relatable to me
i didnt expect his character stories to hit so hard 😭 i get the feeling that they really put in the effort to weave his viewpoints and why they both work and fall apart. I feel like he's also the dev's take on art in an increasingly capitalistic environment + artblock... its all so wordy and poetic i kinda love him.
more of my faves from his lore:
A person who wished to ascend to the garden of heaven upon steps made of thin air would inevitably plant their feet on an empty stair and fall to their death. As a genius, Kaveh longed to belong in a crowd, subconsciously fearing separation from it — this was the difference between him and Alhaitham.
People should not give up, for even if they are doing good in an attempt to make up for something, the results will still have meaning for some. Even if he could not enter that promised land of his ideals, that did not mean the radiance and the attraction of such a realm should be denied.

"Our views are contradictory, but it is through contradiction that more speculation and philosophy may be born." This line has been retained.

Quick interruption: This may (somehow, still?) be a hot take, but I swear to all that is unholy and insane, I've been sitting on this salt about the TB and Kafka since like May of last year. This isn't going to be a long meta at all, but I do want to make something abundantly clear on this blog.
I know that people say the 'mommy' thing jokingly because they have the hots for her (listen, I understand the motivation, I just firmly hate the term), but I know some people actively still believe that Kafka is somehow related to the TB even if her story quest has since entirely debunked that claim and proved the opposite. Let me just, share this for a second:
(source) Can we put this to rest now, pretty please? I'm too old and too tired for this, guys.

So apparently according to the leaks there's a scene in episode 9 of Aegon with Alicent in a carriage heading for his coronation with him breaking down crying and saying how he felt abandoned by Viserys and how very much he does not want to go through with any of this and Alicent telling him not to use violence and to spare Rhaenyra because she's his sister still

Chapter 389 Reactions
I don’t have my laptop with me so I can’t do spoilers under the cut this time- be careful!
What a exciting panel to start off this chapter!
(Holy shit I didn’t realize how big the explosion bubble thing was)
The Todoroki’s!!! All of them are burning up, it’s amazing though how much they can endure though. (So I guess it is confirmed that Natsuo has a ice based quirk?)
Touya continues to break my heart while endeavor looks like a fucked up thumb. No but seriously what the fuck horikoshi having Touya say “if it was so easy to do, why didn’t it happen sooner” BREAK MY HEART AT 12AM WHY DONT YOU
I don’t have much to say about this panel (sorry I don’t really pay attention to ochacos fight) but I’m happy to see her, I was wondering what her reaction would be cause she’s at Gunga too.
Edit: tumblr mobile is making it look like every image is endeavor looking ugly so I’ll post the real one tomorrow!

I can't stand seeing the posts like "There's no reason to follow arbitrary rules, if it's easier to do [Thing] in [Unconventional Way], then do that!" like thanks! I actually already know this! However I live with someone who cares so much that I am given specific times where I'm allowed to eat certain foods and if I break the rules I get yelled at

If you make a spoiler post for splatoon 3 and don’t tag it as spoilers I’m stealing something from your house
