I don’t typically like when star trek characters reference legacy characters just to talk about how great and perfect they are but I do like this route where even though Tuvok calls him a great visionary in the end he brings Spock up to say he argued with him. I think this is the way of the future. Lean in. Star Trek characters should say things like ‘An old man cut me off in space traffic the other day. I think it was McCoy?’ and another should nod and shake their head like he’s always doing that shit

#'I met Jonathan Archer and he smelled like wet dog?? Seemed nice though.' <- more stories like this #Also since Janeway idolizes ppl like Sulu I want her to occasionally bug Tuvok for more stories about working with him after she finds out #that they were alive at the same time on the same ship and have Tuvok begrudgingly tell her I don't know...we didn't talk much and I was #busy at the time...one time Kirk sneezed on the bridge. It was quite loud. #<- what he doesn't say is that Tuvok had a handkerchief but did NOT give it to Kirk bc he was concerned about being called a suckup again #Tuvok what do you MEAN you 'spoke out against [it]'??? You aren't a politician??? HEHEHE did you write an open letter??? #Tuvok old man moments...Tuvok's children cringing: dad please DON'T bring up your initial opposition to the Klingon-Federation alliance #Tuvok's low estimation of Klingons...B'Elanna..you sit back. I'LL get him!!!!! #I mean everyone in star trek ever like every non klingon character has a low estimation of Klingons for Some Reason* #*You Know. #but I'm a Tuvok girlie so it's my job to rake him across the coals for it from time to time v_v #-sniffs and salutes- gotta kill that old man for my babygirl -fires a cartoon canon at him and he flies into the sky and becomes a star- #love you Tuvok <3 #Tom I smashed with a mallet #cartoonishly large for whimsy but just overall more gruesome

The game might not be out yet (it's Tuesday) but the demo was really fun! I think adopting the archer as my son is the best move. I love him so much look at how cute he is? Like??? Criminally cute.

#silent hope #since they literally are just referred to as their classes in game i guess uh #sh archer #???? maybe ???? idk what to tag him as #also i mean i normally dont just zero in on gender stuff but this boy is so trans to me #like out of the seven characters you play as i look at them and im just #four of you are so trans and i love every one of you #which is wild to me since normally those hc's happen over time #but right off the bat im just mmmm yeah #anyway all that to say the archer is one of my sons and i love him very much

The thing I really love about Yu Mei-Ren is that no one expects her to be any foil/parallel to Archer/Shirou because it’s just not obvious. She’s not made to be the obvious foil like Gilgamesh to Emiya, or the half foil/parallel of Cu to Archer, or even the obvious reminiscence that Saber is to Archer. People think Yu Mei-Ren is just a True Ancestor so in love with her husband and that’s her motivation, and no one would connect that to Archer/Shirou because there’s no direct conflict to pit the other against another.

But this Chaldea’s Thriller Night lays it out pretty well that she does contain something you can relate to Archer/Shirou. Not only do both Emiya and her take a well-deserve center stage in this event but Emiya also shows up in her interlude. Before I thought it was a bit random of why any character he should show up in her interlude.

It got me thinking after she says this in the event.

In UBW, Shirou confronts is ideals/dream head on and despite the path it led Archer down, he decides he was going to go down it all the same. Stardust is a theme that is pretty much associated with Archer. He’s not the starlight that Saber is, the star that Shirou hopes to become, he’s the aftermath of what the ideal truly is, destroyed and broken—he’s stardust.

Yu Mei-Ren refers to herself as stardust because she is no longer how she used to be—an elemental spirit in love who lost her husband and wandered for thousands of years, wishing for death and lamenting. She’s only gotten back what she’s lost, and even as the stardust, she presses on which at the end of UBW Archer does too after having his Hope renewed.

The foil/parallel I see it as that she is an elemental spirit who wished nothing to do with humanity and Archer a man who wanted to save humanity, both fought for some survival of themselves and eventually lost the things they wanted to keep (his ideal; her husband). Both trapped in an endless cycle of pain, him constantly killing as a CG and her constantly being killed and hunted by humanity.

On a slightly different note, throughout the event despite numerous warnings, Yu Mei-Ren keeps dying which is more comical in the event, and because she’s immortal, it gets brushed off. In a similar light, Shirou is constantly wounded nearly mortally many times throughout each routes, but thanks to Saber’s sheath, he comes back as if nothing happens. During the Zombie Movie Segmant, Yu Mei-Ren risks her life to save the others and willingly let’s herself die (only to come back in a comedic way later) but her resolve reminded me of how Shirou fully accepts Archer’s Arm in Heaven’s Feel and decides to face Heracles (a mindless servant at that point like the zombies).

Towards the end of the event, Xu Fu wants to give Yu Mei-Ren death, what she wanted so long ago because that’s the way to end her suffering. But Yu Mei-Ren refuses, and accepts the fact her path may very well end up suffering again and she may go on, angry at her past self (sounds familiar? Archer is literally that.)

Regardless of it, Yu Mei-Ren decides the path she has now, the happiness she has found, is worth it. Like Shirou decided that his dream isn’t wrong, he would continue down that path.

Of course, there’s a segment where she is fighting her doppelgänger but gives up, and makes a reference to UBW of Archer’s own conflict to Shirou, which Archer is visibly pained by.

Even if her choices to not die will come to haunt her later, she accepts that her choice now and before (this event tries not to spoiler LB3 but you can connect the dots) to be reunited with her husband are not wrong.

Which I really loved this event for touching upon these subjects, and having Emiya being such a delight during it all. His story was already told but he gets to still be a guiding figure in an event that reminiscences his own arc.

#Mad’s Fate #fate grand order #fgo #emiya #archer emiya #heroic spirit emiya #Shirou emiya #yu mei ren #Chaldea’s thriller night #summer camp #i feel I could’ve worded this better #it just had me thinking #there’s also stuff you can relate to the dreams and illusions section with Kiara but i wanted to talk specifically about Yu #i swear I’ll just be writing ten different analyses of how different characters relate to Shirou/Archer #someone once said they would write a Bedivere/Shirou analysis and I’ve no idea if they did but I want to read it #one day I will compile a whole a essay on the Three Knights + Gil #i still need to do my Medusa one #I’m just relating everything back to Archer because he’s my favorite and y’all get to see what goes in my brain #mad’s fgo #but I swear I love this event so much it was really well done imo

the jamie tartt to evan buckley to james potter pipeline is so real to me

dont mistake me I really loved s3 of Enterprise, and so far im enjoying s4, but the character writing has taken such a hard hit

what I mean by that is that if you aren't Archer, T'Pol, or Trip, youre basically fucked. pretty much all the focus shifted to those three, with very few exceptions. Phlox occasionally gets some focus, and Malcolm might get a few crumbs, but Travis? Hoshi? they barely exist. theyre supposed to be main characters, and at this point it feels like theyre not even side characters. Shran has gotten more attention in s4 than Travis and Hoshi have gotten

im so close to the end of the series that I know it won't change, which is disappointing. I feel that other Treks have done a much better job keeping things feeling somewhat balanced, with bigger casts. im still enjoying myself with this series, and im hoping I continue to enjoy myself, but this is a big gripe I have with s3 and s4 specifically

#star trek: enterprise #like I feel like DS9 did a much better job balancing out focusing on different characters #while having a main cast of 8 compared to Enterprise's 7 #and including several side characters and recurring characters #Enterprise reminds me of TOS that way #where Kirk Spock and Bones are really the ones who get the focus #with Scotty occasionally getting some focus #while Sulu Chekov and Uhura- especially Uhura- dont get much #but even with TOS they find some more balance in the movies #so yeah its a bit frustrating #especially because I love Hoshi and want to see more of her than just quick scenes #no hate to Archer T'Pol or Trip I just wish the rest of the Main Cast got to be in the show more ldkgfdkhldf

my one piece self insert oc is the ultimate in escapist 'mary sue' fantasy and i'm sorry but i love that and i'm so proud of me for letting myself have that. what if i ran away and joined the circus but i still had job security and everyone thought i was so hot they came to see me perform every night. also i'm tough. also i can shapeshift. also i'm fucking an emperor. also i sing fleetwood mac and everyone claps.

#silver jelly #clownfucker era #they're a lot like adrian in that there isn't a Big Bad haunting the story (like g with joseph's messy divorce; kieran with the cult; #or ezra with the uhhh [gestures wildly around crockett]) #but the source material is also just so fucking ridiculous that i can do whatever i want and get away with it. whereas with adrian there #are some limits on like what qualifies as realistic; even within the coma dream aus where the rules of reality have a little more give. #it's also like;; so much of archer is these characters' relationships ('it was always a love story') but buggy doesn't really have that #so anything kinda goes? and sometimes it's good to have roadmaps to lean against; i find a lot of joy in figuring out where a #character belongs and who thinks what about them and how that makes them mesh (or not) with their social surroundings #but it's also really nice to be like. okay. this is the only guy they care about impressing and he doesn't really have any friends. #anyway i lov all my self inserts and ocs mwahhh :' )

if our most beloved valkyrie Cam had tumblr I imagine it would be an art blog of painting and photos with occasional text posts like these

[ID: first screenshot of text post posted from account named 'Through-Cams-Eyes'. The post reads ' *puts a flower in my hair and moves on* '. Second screenshot from the same Tumblr account reading ' if i could swing a really big sword it wouldnt even matter if anyone loved me or not '. end ID]

My favoritism is Obvious

Tfw I spent all the rest of my money buying bow upgrades for The Boy

In an entirely predictable move, I'm pretty sure he's my favorite

#speculation nation #engage spoilers/ #he's like a mix of my favs from two other games. felix and takumi lol #he even looks like felix. though his personality couldnt be more different lmfaoo #but that same sort of Little Brother Syndrome that both felix and takumi have... #never feeling like they can surpass their elder brother.. feeling Jealousy about it... & other feelings for felix but this aint about him #combine felix's appearance with takumi's bow skill (& slightly more pathetic mannerisms) and U get alcryst #alcryst is so... sopping wet pathetic. the absolute most pathetic boy in existence #putting himself down CONSTANTLY. extreme sense of inferiority to his Model Crown Prince brother #alcryst keeps making comments about being a waste of space and i wanna take him by the shoulders and tell him #YOU ARE AN AMAZING ARCHER. BEST IN MY ARMY. INCREDIBLY IMPORTANT MEMBER. I LOVE YOU. #he looks So cool when he's not literally prostrating himself for unknowingly shooting at the divine dragon. lmao #but yea he's everything i love in a fictional character. Angsty boy with elder sibling issues. apparently that's a constant for my favs #also I HAD HIM WITH LIEF. IT WAS SUCH A GOOD COMBO. BUT THEN THEY TOOK MY RINGS AWAY 😠😠😠😠 #dont worry alcryst i'll get ur emblem ring back. at some point... #also between the upgrades and engraving on the killer bow. it now has a 67% crit rate #which is kind of INSANE. this is a bow of Fuck You #i love having archers that are a death sentence. #even better is that with 'canter' he can go up. one-shot someone. then dart back behind the line #he's got a decent defense but at the end of the day he's an archer. a glass canon. GOD i love him so much #both as a unit and as a character. sopping wet tissue of a boy. i love him
