I love supernatural sci-fi horror. Something about how both science and spirituality are out to get you. You've built a spaceship, and you're still getting tormented by demons. It's over, man.
i've never posted this zine from 2016 in its entirety on social media and i might as well. when i sell it people are scared to pick it up. they fear the zine.
Apropos of nothing, here's my personal headcanon in regards to Mario and Luigi's surname.
Now, it's been generally announced and accepted that the brothers' last name is "Mario," shackling them with the somewhat awkward full names of "Mario Mario" and "Luigi Mario." My take on this is that the family's original last name was "Marianetti" (likely coming from the more common "Marinetti"). This name was changed to "Marionetti" when the boys' grandmother came over from Italy. (A common occurrence in record keeping at immigration at the time. Someone probably had bad handwriting and smudged a pencil stroke somewhere. It happened in my family for sure).
In Brooklyn, their father went by the last name "Marionetti," which ended up shortened to just "Mario," as oftentimes he would be addressed by his surname only. (Think, "Hey, Mario! Get over here!" as opposed to "Hey, Marionetti! Get over here!")
So, the boys are born and get their names. (Their father's middle name was Mario, and so our Mario, being the oldest, inherits his father's middle name as his first name. Luigi's name maybe comes from the middle name of some uncle who is long out of the picture).
So we have "Mario Marionetti" and "Luigi Marionetti." Which, their surname being a mouthful, gets shortened to "Mario" more often than not, just like their father. And thus we end up with "Mario Mario" and "Luigi Mario," culminating in the "Mario Brothers."
We as a society do not talk enough about how Kaz Brekker, Dirtyhands himself, the Bastard of the Barrel, carved an entire underground tunnel from his club ... To his besties house
There is no explanation for this other than that he is king softy
Like just imagine how much money that would cost, and how much work. Like sure bro is rich as fuck but like be fr, there is no way he would do all that for crime and gang business, it's just not practical. Like take the surface roads it costs nothing and it's probably not that much slower
Like bro fr just wanted a secret short cut so he could drop in on his babes whenever he wants and never be seen by the masses
Got a reputation to uphold after all
Can't have the pigeons seeing Dirtyhands taking another trip to the Geldstraat to visit his favourite boys
between the Assembly taking over Aeor and the Tishtan site and his behavior towards the Grim Verity and the fact that I bet they probably did the same to Pride's Call, I have to wonder if there's just a rag-tag group of furious historians, archaeologists, and anthropologists who are amassing to murder Ludinus Da'leth over that alone
From deliberately wanting to operate alone and not putting his trust in anyone to wanting his loved ones back because life is empty and lonely for him without them, Loki's come a long way.
The concept of time is different inside the TVA. We can't be sure of exactly how long it's been for Loki staying there in relation to Earth time.
Loki's willing to go to any lengths to get back the life and love he found in the TVA. In the face of utter desperation, he finally manages to learn to control his time-slipping. That's what he feels is his chance at a family surrounded by people who love him and whom he loves back with equal passion and fervour.
