HAPPY DUCKRABBIT ANNIVERSARY
Tumblr media
On this day, in Looney Tunes history, Frank Tashlin returns to WB with his 1943 short starring Porky Pig and Daffy Duck, “Porky Pig’s Feat”. It is the first time Daffy meets Bugs Bunny officially. Today would be the 80th anniversary.
In honor to this short, let’s learn some facts about Frank Tashlin:
Tumblr media
Tashlin directed a lot of Porky films back in the 30s and 40s and most of the Merrie Melodies from 1937-38. Porky was his less favorite character.
He would return to Warner Bros. in 1942 using Bob Clampett's and Norman McCabe's old unit, directing the last set of black-and-white Looney Tunes cartoons.
His last cartoon was "Hare Remover", for which he was uncredited in the short, as he left Warner Bros in 1944 to direct live-action films; his unit was eventually taken over by Robert McKimson.
Tex Avery was a big inspiration for his shorts.
Tashlin worked on camera moves and editing more than any of his peers, using unexpected pans and quick cuts to enhance a gag.
He developed theories of animation design he called “SCOT Art,” which reduced the basic shape of characters to squares, circles, ovals, and triangles.
He is the most daring in using ‘adult jokes’.
He created Petunia Pig.
Let’s see his take on Daffy and Bugs.
Tashlin’s Daffy is a warrior, as always, still having his bad luck on him but facing it like a champ, someone who incites trouble and faces the consequences with no complaint. He is smart, but he uses more muscles than brains.
Tumblr media
“I’m a woman hater!” – Plane Daffy
“Now look at me! A has-been! A henpecked duck! A Kansas-back cassanova! And it's your fault!” – The Stupid Cupid
Tahslin doesn’t have a lot of cartoons for Bugs, but he does a good job in his characterization when he does. Even trying to maintain Avery’s quick movements, Bugs’ response to people bothering him, his elegance, smartness, playfuness, feminity and cuteness remain.
Tumblr media
“I reiterate: only a big, fat rat would shoot a guy in the back.” – Unruly Hare

Kallen's second Character song "One More Chance" Analysis
Kallen's second character song went out with the R2 sound drama 4 and brought some great information for all Kallen and/or Kallen/Lelouch fans, so I had to make a post about this song.
youtube
First off you have to know that while the beat of the song is very cheerful, the song in itself is rather depressing as it is basically Kallen singing about the new life someone she can't reach anymore gave her; And while she tried to enjoy and adore it, she can't help but feel his absence and long for his presence. As usual, as it was the case with every Kallen side material, this song caused flame wars on the internet, on the english and japanese side of the fandom because of Kallen's words (her song was released right after the ending of the show so those were her first words after the ambiguous Geass ending, and what words they were.)
Let's see the lyrics ~
The city will now awaken and I sense a new wind blowing While I shut a number of lost dreams deep in my breast
This one is pretty easy to decipher, as she talks about a new day/a new world, so that's actually pretty hopeful but then she has to talk about lost dreams she had (sadness is never far with Kallen post R2 material) and that she keeps quiet; You can try and guess about those lost dreams; Lelouch made her brother's dream come true, what are/were her dreams actually ?
Thank you for your love, for how you supported me All you people whom I've met up 'til today Thank you for your love, for I can't forget The person with a strong and beautiful heart
And there it is, at the very beginning the verse which caused torrent of R A G E and talks over the internet lol;
Kallen basically thanks those who supported her and that she met till this very day, so we can guess it's the resistance folks, the black knights, her friends in ashford, basically everyone who cared, loved and supported her;
And then she single out a person with a strong and beautiful heart she can't forget, and she also thanks him for his love; Honestly I've seen people try and try to debate about this verse, ultimately those who denied the possibility of Kallen thanking Lelouch for loving her had two arguments : 1/ He loved her like Jesus loved everyone (Yeah Lelouch became Jesus Christ superstar apparently) 2/ Kallen is delusional (don't laugh because most of the deniers of her side material went this way with everything that came out about her; the whole point of Kallen's side material would be to show how delusional she is.) Now of course, I think noone of those argument make sense, Lelouch loved his friends in various ways, but he wasn't some sort of demi god, for Kallen to single him out and thank him for his love, she just...thank him for his love. And while some will always deny he felt some romantic feelings toward Kallen, i'd say the point where I'd agree with them is actually that the nature of this love is still up in the air; Love doesn't mean romance after all (but that's when other Kallen's side material come into light and give more and more weight to the idea that Lelouch and Kallen definitely shared something more ambiguous than some would like to admit.)
We ended the battle but I still can't shed tears Not until that day when I've climbed our promised staircases
This one is a bit tricky; first off we have as usual Kallen trying to be strong and hold back her pain, because that's who she is, she is selfless and tried her best, all the time and...she talks about reaching a promise staircase; Now as far as we know, Kallen never made any promise to anyone...or did she ? We know two things came from Lelouch ; he wanted her to live on, and he had a personal little wish for her, to live her own dreams. (You can find the post about this on this link) ; So one could think she turned that into a promise, that she would indeed go on and do as he wanted for her. Just a thought.
I will try again, even when I stumble Push on my back so that I walk forward I will try again, and once day I'll catch up with you Encourage me by telling me I'm not alone, okay?
Just like most of Kallen's side material, this song is quite centered about her and Lelouch so there is next to no doubt she is asking for his support, even when she stumbles through life, as most people who lost dear ones hope they'll watch over them in the afterlife; The second part of the verse is quite sad as she talks about reuniting with him someday (so at the time of her death since in the anime canon, he is fully dead.) and ask for him to tell her he is still by her side. ...I don't get how anyone would actually try and pretend Gino/Kallen was a believable ship after R2. If anything Kallen seems even more in love with Lelouch after he died than she was during R2.
One more chance The dawn will come To the stars I want to wave to Yes, one more chance Shine again okay? Under the sky
So it's Kallen once again singing about this new chance at life she has (she got given) one can certainly overanalyze that and put more Lelouch in there but he is all over this song so no need for me.
Honestly, I want to see you And weep into your chest...
This part is pretty sad since she eventally let out her truth; while the whole song is about her being grateful for this life, asking him for his support and thanking him for his love she eventually gives up the pretense and just admits she wants to see him and cry in his chest. Kallen being honest there. To think some argues she only liked Zero.
One more chance Gaze at me So I can advance on the path I believe in Yes, one more chance Just once more I'll try living your share of life, too
Once again she talks about her new life, she asks Lelouch to watch over her, to give her the strenght she needs and she concludes by the fact she'll try to live for him as well. Urgh. That's pretty heartbreaking but that also means living to the fullest so while it's sad, it's also full of hope for Kallen's future.
One more chance The dawn will come To the stars I want to wave to Yes, one more chance Shine again okay? Under the sky
And that's the conclusion of the song with this repetition. That's about it for Kallen's second character song; While her first character song, platinium end, was about her being dere dere and full of admiration for her masked commander, her second character song is more mature and sad, with a Kallen trying desperately to be hopeful and glad about what she got, while still missing her special someone.
Kallen really ends up being a tragic character eventually, and her side material only intensify that.

Code Geass Lelouch of the Rebellion Sound Episode 3 // Canon
For More information about the Sound Drama, check the post for the First Sound episode of season 1 over there
Tumblr media
(One of my favorite Takahiro Kimura artwork, Shirley is so cute there.)
Track List :
1 - CLEAR SKIES AFTER THE SUMMER RAIN (Shirley's character song) 2 - Short Drama STAGE 11.351 " The girl in the straightjacket" 3 - Short Drama STAGE STAGE 15.447 "playing strangers" 4 - Continuous Drama Stage 0.518: The Song of the Secret Base 5 - CLEAR SKIES AFTER THE SUMMER RAIN (Instrumental)
Clear skies after the summer rain, Shirley's character song, sung by Fumiko Orikasa
youtube
Audio Drama Stage 11.351 " The girl in the straightjacket" (Happens right after the Narita battle, before C.C. sports her loely lolita outfit) You can listen to the drama in english dub right here
It begins as Lelouch walks home with C.C. welcoming him shortly after she has finished repairing her white straightjacket that had been damaged due to the Battle of Narita; As Lelouch question her motivation to wear that, C.C. blames him for not congratulating him on her household abilities. Lelouch then pressures her to use his money to buy more clothes or else he'll make sure no pizza deliveries come around anymore; C.C. blames him for trying to pressure her as she ate too many pizza and can't possibly go buy new clothes after that; She doesn't really want to do so, but Lelouch says that if someone walked in and saw her in his room wearing a straightjacket they might think he was keeping her prisoner.
Just as they are discussing how he could explain keeping a girl in his room at all, Nunnally comes in. ; C.C. greets Nunnally who is happy to meet her again and wants to take tea together but C.C. then mentions she and Lelouch are having an intimate discussion so Nunnally chose to go to her room to leave them some intimacy before biding C.C. goodbye;
After Nunnally leaves, C.C. notices how she seems to have the wrong idea about them, something Lelouch blame her as she encourages that; Lelouch questions C.C. as to why she continues to wear those clothes, making guesses as maybe she keevs those as a charm or maybe she just like weird stuff like that; She responds by saying it is a symbol of her captivity as she believes that she is a prisoner in this world. Lelouch then proceeds to go online and order her new clothes. He doesn't care about her taste, and he reminds her that is she isn't free she just has to fight for her freedom or nothing will change; They talk some more and C.C. realizes that Lelouch is in a sense a prisoner to the Ashford family and of the Kururugi family before that.. He vows to one day break out of the birdcage that holds him down. ; C.C. then thoughtfully remarks how Lelouch can be so weak at one moment and then so strong the next. Lelouch finishes the purchase online and C.C. seems to like the clothes that he has picked out for her, telling him he should get those as it's a great joy for a man to see a girl wearing clothes he bough; Lelouch give a deep sigh, and questions why she always has to act like that to which C.C. replies her signature reply "Because i'm C.C."
Audio Drama Stage 15.447 "Playing Strangers" (Takes place after Lelouch used his Geass on Shirley and removed her memories of him.)
The drama happens at Ashford Academy, as Shirley is talking to Lelouch and assigning him a few tasks before she heads out of the place; Since they are still playing pretend they don't know each other for everyone, Milly intervenes and encourages Lelouch to go and make up as but this lead him to get up and leave as well.
Rivalz then comments that they are really into the playing strangers thing, and that it must be a pretty serious argument for them to act this way. He then manage to suggest Milly and him should try and play pretend as well to see if that's fun; After some hesitance, Milly joins in; As they pretend to meet and get to know each other for the first time, Milly mentions her favorite color is rainbow so that she isn't confined to just one color and can love them all; Rivalz, who is totally into the game, compliment her on how much of a natural she is playing this game;
Because of this, Rivalz get bolder and as he is about to confess his love to Milly... Kallen bursts in to feed Arthur. After that, Kallen feigns being sick so that she can leave while avoiding questions and Rivalz tries another time to confess when... Suzaku bursts in as well. To feed the cat just like Kallen did before. As Suzaku eventually leaves, it is revealed that Nina has been there the whole time, unnoticed. Two more failed attempts latter, the game is done and Rivalz didn't managed to tell Milly how he feels. Milly thanks Rivalz for the fun and the memories and back to her job as president, she begins assigning him a bunch of work to do.
Audio Drama Stage 0.518: The Song of the Secret Base ( Takes place shortly after Nunnally goes missing during Lelouch's childhood, before the beginning of the show) You can listen to the drama in english dub right here
Suzaku vehemently declares that he will do what he wants to do and save who he wants to save with or without anyone's permission. Lelouch vi Britannia argues that it is his duty and right to look for and after Nunnally and refuses help from anyone. Suzaku calls him arrogant and bolts off into the forest to look for Nunnally as Lelouch muses about how he should be thankful to him anyway;
As Lelouch searches and searches for Nunally, he thinks she couldn't have gotten too far given her legs are weak but his desperation grows as he continues his own search through the forest. Eventually he stumbles upon a womandressed in a sunflower kimino, sitting with her back facing him. It's C.C.. He doesn't get a good look at her face but asks her if she has seen Nunnally; C.C. dryly informs him that such a girl has not come through this part of the forest. As Lelouch starts to wonder who this woman really is as she isn't from the temple and could be anything from a lost sould to an assassin, C.C. informs him that she is not his enemy and is just here as she was asked to keep an eye on things. Lelouch doesn't understand and asks her who she is but it begins to rain, leaing Lelouch to freak out at the thought Nunally will end up soaked, so he has to be fast; As he returnes his attention to the woman, he notices she vanished, in just a short moment.
Off in the distance Lelouch hears Nunnally's voice and he sprints off after her. He hears her laughing, noticing how she hadn't laughed since her mother died and runs harder to find her with Suzaku in some kind of underground fort that Suzaku had created. It turns out that Nunnally had fallen into the hole and gotten knocked out. Fortunately Suzaku keeps this hidden base of his stocked with food and weapons. As Lelouch questions Nunnally's laugh she says it's because of Suzaku, and Suzaku takes his chance to tell Lelouch he is too serious and he never laughs, leading the prince to realize he also stopped laughing. Nunnally then invites Lelouch to enter the base while he realizes that Suzaku has beaten him, as he found Nunnally before him and even made her laugh. Suzaku suddenly begins to apologizes to Lelouch for hitting him when they first met and explain how wrong he was about Lelouch and how strong he empathizes about everything he went trhough with his family and how admirable he is for taking care of Nunnally. Of course Suzaku starts crying claming how amazing lelouh is even through he isn't a prince anymore, to which Nunnally fully agrees. Suzaku then drags Lelouch into the base and they spend the rest of the day huddled in the base and away from the rain outside. Lelouch then ponders how it was the beginning of something happy for the three of them and how they didn't even noticed the rain stopped, as they were all hidding in that secret base.
That's about it for the 3rd Sound episode CD. I added the summary for the tracks even though they were available in english in case video get taken down and also because there are always some shifting between english and japanese version.

Appendices of the collector’s edition of Fire and Blood
Targaryens are supernaturally attracted to each other because of the dragon controlling magic of their blood. They’re not some band of sexual deviants getting off on the taboo nature of it. Daemon Targaryens parents were brother and sister, as were his grandparents, and their love stories are the stuff of legend. Targaryens are the soulmates of other Targaryens and adore each other more than life itself. That’s just their nature. 
Is it canon material?

I think I've never been more aware of just how many people only get their info of the batfam through fanfic. I finally started reading Red Robin (2009) and I can not believe how many things are blown out of proportion. Particularly about Dick and Damian.
First of all, Dick does try to put limits and he does get fed up with Damian's ways sometimes. Out of the three first interactions of them in the comic, at least in two he tells him to shut up. And one of those is when Damian starts to brag about being Robin and Tim being useless, he tells him to shut up twice.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Another thing about that moment, is that they treat it like Dick completely dismisses Tim and treats him as unimportant. He doesn't. He takes him seriously, he tells him he needs him, he tells him he views his as an equal, as someone capable. And he also tells him he's concerned about him and that he needs to start processing Bruce's death. Could that have been a little harsh? Yes, but he needed to do it without making Tim think there was room for him to be convinced about his theory because let's be honest, Tim would've taken anything less than complete refusal and tried to change his mind. And had he been wrong neither of them could have taken it.
Secondly, Dick is always left to shoulder the blame of kicking Tim out and of never reaching out. That's bull. And I need to make that clear. Tim was in a delicate point, he tells us this himself multiple times, but the decision to leave was completely made out of his own free will. Another thing he did was put space between him and the people on Gotham. We see only one time in which Dick tries to call him. Tim picks up and tells him he doesn't want to talk. This tells us that Dick respecting Tim's wish of space included almost no (or even no) contact, and Dick calling was not something Tim appreciated or encouraged.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Now. Going into the second year of the run, when he's back in Gotham, there's a few things to talk about and I'm still in the aftermath of Damian and Tim's fight.
I feel it's important to say that even if they are all family, more often than not they're doing their own thing. Like, Babs and Steph are in the Batcave while Dick and Damian are in Wayne Tower, Cass is said to potentially be in Hong Kong and we haven't even heard Jason be name-dropped except for the fact that he went on a rampage at some point.
So, Dick is immediately called away in League business. So he isn't there. Damian is behaving fairly civil besides being a brat, so no one wastes too much effort in correcting what he says. We need to think about the fact that this is a kid whose world was turned upside down multiple times in a short period of time, who has a need to be accepted, and who hasn't yet found his place. All this is to say, that if it's difficult to get him to eat breakfast there's no way they're controlling his every move and that's understandable.
So Dick is away, Damian is still trying to adapt, Alfred has his hands full and everyone else is doing something else.
The whole thing starts because Tim is being kind of cryptic about what he's doing with his hit list and Damian feels left out and goes looking for more. He finds his name in a hidden double side of the hit list marking him as a threat. He understandably feels hurt and angry, because he's a kid, and he's trying, and his predecessor who at this point doesn't even try with him anymore views him as something bad.
So in classic Damian fashion, he falls back on his upbringing and doesn't deal with the situation as one should, talking about it. Instead he cuts team line, hurting before being hurt. It could've been worse, we see in the panel that Tim doesn't have that much of a hard time getting safely to the ground. The problem is that he snaps and starts a full-blown fight he knows Damian won't back out off. (I'm pleased to add that after cutting his line Damian doesn't start anything else)
So they are fighting, Tim has the clear advantage and he knows this, we know this. And that's how Dick finds them. Having just returned from a JL mission, in the place where the Waynes were murdered, with Tim having overpowered Damian.
They go back to the cave and Damian shares his findings, and Dick understands. And Tim tells him he (Dick) knows why he (Tim) did it. Dick agrees, and tells him he should have tried to make it harder to find. Tim says he hadn't thought Damian would try or even care. Dick tells him Damian wants to be accepted.
All in all, so far the only thing this comic has proven to me is that there's a reason comics are the bomb and that fanon has gotten out of hand. I get making things out to be worse for the sake of a story, but everything surrounding these events is basically used as the foundation for Damian and Tim's relationship as well as Dick and Tim's and I don't think I've once read a fanfic where these events are portrayed correctly or even following the real motivations of the characters. This is a disservice to all of them and only serves to amplify the hate towards a character that doesn't deserve it. There's a lot of Damian hate going around. And it sucks. Mostly because people use his actions against Tim to justify it and honestly? I don't think you should be allowed to use that if you haven't read RR and understood what was going on.

Parallel Lines and Brothers.
[First] Prev <–-> Next
#poorly drawn mdzs#mdzs#wei wuxian#jiang cheng#lan wangji#lan xichen#jin zixuan#Does anyone else think about the tragedy of the parallel lines? Of characters who are parallel lines?#Of running the same course as someone. Of echoing each other in perfect synchronicity.#It's more than being a foil. It's about being on the same path and being so near to each other.#and yet parallel lines never intersect. They cannot meet each other despite their existence being tied to another.#I think the brothers tragedy is just as much of a tragedy of parallel lines as is pre-resurrection wangxian.#Jiang Cheng and Wei Wuxian spend so much time running side by side and yet - they cant close this gap between them.#Even if their relationship never recovers - they are forever tied together through their past. The good and bad and ugly.#All the things that are left unsaid between them. All the love and sacrifices they made for each other that are never shared. Parallel line#I firmly believe any post-canon material that would have them be indifferent towards each other is just...really doing them a disservice.#And dear god the Lan brothers. They certainly love each other! Its a far fonder fraternal relationship than jiangxian (/platonic)#They fool you by having you think they have a good read on each other. Lan Xichen certainly wingmans + advocates for lwj!#But lets not forget - Lan Xichen by the end is in the reverse situation and headspace as Lan Wangji by the end of this story.#Lan Wangji is more free and open than he has ever been. He's in love. He's married. He and wwx are intersecting lines.#& LXC who grew up with and lived the same path as LWJ - who even is said to resemble him visually - his parallel line - shuts himself away#Despite all the love LWJ has for his brother I don't think he ever manages to reach him.

I can never take “Bad Kids lifespan difference angst” seriously because you can’t look at the state of the afterlife in that setting as well as the way multiple Bad Kids and their families have interacted with it and convince me that they’re not just going to find new inventive ways to continue wet t-shirting each other across the various planes they end up in.

One thing I love about Duck and Ace is how protective they are of each other.
And this is just Episode 3 Season 1
First Duck says that he’s not going to use technology anymore, and while Lexi talks about phones and music, Ace asks about weapons in a disapproving way, as if “you’re going to get hurt without it”
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Then, everyone is deactivating explosive missiles and Ace lost sight of Duck
Tumblr media
(he looks so cute looking for him!😆 )
Tumblr media Tumblr media
And he could have told Lexi to go and help him (since he was driving the ship) but instead he told her to drive and went himself
Tumblr media Tumblr media
After that, they had to fight robots in the dark, Duck almost hit him by accident and felt so sorry about it 😭
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
He almost hit his princess 😭 (Duck wouldn’t apologize to any other member of his group, I am 100% sure of that)
Next, a building was falling on them, Duck used his teleportation but Ace didn’t see it so he was really worried
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
And of course (and this is something that I see a lot in the series) there is Duck instictively jumping in front of Ace to protect him
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Love them ❤
