She's not officially Maelstrom? I always thought you had to have that total conversation faceplate thing and Sev is way too vain to mess her face up. But she's uses their Ripperdoc, has sold them explosives and even offered her services on jobs with them before. How did you think she bought all that pyrotechnics gear starting out? Sure seems like she's part of the gang to me. Maybe not officially but there's a partnership there at very least.

There were many things that Abbadon had found pleasant about the region he had found himself in. In between his intermittent jobs as a 'Ronin' as some of the locals had taken to referring to him, he found himself frequenting a tea house. It was here that he had struck up a conversation with a local flower merchant "So, do you find yourself selling a great number of flowers regularly? I've always been curious about that with flower shops."

"Hmmm, not as much now a days due to so many people coming and going. However, I do sell flowers and other things too but flowers are always a good thing." Misako, the flamed Kitsune and owner of the flower shop was looking at her cup but reaches to pick it up and take a sip.

"Though, flower shops do sell but it depends on what kind."

I am so bloody excited and here's why!!!

This plot is going to be so gorgeous!

Season 2 is all about the reversal, the opposite of what we've seen in season 1, and ofmd is so incredibly character-driven. Even more specifically, the plot is driven the most (almost entirely) by Stede, Ed and Izzy.

The story is so driven by the three of them, they are linked together, for better or for worse, right from the start.

What happens in season 1?

Stede is running away from his life and he stumbles into Ed's. Throughout the season there are hints of his issues with fear, and then the big one happens: he's confronted with his greatest fear, aka ruining everything, and he runs away again. His biggest problem is his fear.

Ed is unhappy with his life, waiting to drown (hellooooo, season 2 metaphors), he's a Peter Pan-level lost boy. He doesn't know who he is. When Stede doesn't meet him on that dock he becomes convinced he's unlovable and becomes completely lost. Why? Because his greatest fear was confirmed.

Izzy's life is disrupted by Stede, he becomes Stede's antagonist. He's angry, he's jealous, he clings to the only life he's known to keep him and Ed safe, aka violence and unkindness. He becomes a catalyst for problems. Why? Because he's scared.

These three characters are all so scared and in such different ways that it creates an absolute maelstorm of a plot, and it's breathtakingly brilliant.

Now, season 2 is all about the reversal: of fortunes, motivations, lives, everything.

Stede is no longer scared and no longer running: he's in love with Ed, he knows he's in love. He becomes unstoppable. Now he'll go on without fear. (He lifts the covering off "dead" Ed's face, unafraid to see what he finds there.) He's going to show Ed how much he loves him, and he's no longer scared of ruining Ed. More than that, he accepts that he's hurt Ed, and that doesn't frighten him away from facing him. (Stede is also ahead of Ed and Izzy on this journey, because Stede is in charge of the narrative, and that's so gorgeous.)

Ed is now finding himself. He tries to find himself in the grotesque Blackbeard persona, but of course he's wrong, poor thing. He's spiralling, more and more lost. First change: Ed chooses life, he stops drowning (Stede as a source of light again, btw, sjldfhsjdf). Ed's journey now is about finding himself, deciding who he wants to be, and also to let go of his own fears. He'll be finding himself and accepting love and being brave enough to express love.

And Izzy! Izzy, in his own reversal, becomes a catalyst for solutions and a unifier, where he was once a divider. He stands up to Ed (and he chooses life too, jfc, he shot that torch out of Ed's hand in the middle of a storm, don't tell me he missed when aiming at his own head, the whole message of ofmd is choosing life!), and he reaches out to Stede, wants to mend things. He'll be teaching Stede how to be a pirate, he'll be helping. He will be letting go of his anger, which also stemmed from fear.

These three scared characters are now actively choosing to not be afraid any more, and they're choosing life. And this is how they'll drive the plot this time.

This is so, so incredible and beautiful, and I absolutely love it.

And it's not upending the order. No, no, that's what the first season was about. This? This is about putting things right.

And I can't wait <3

garak in the prison camp is so funny because it's this insane social maelstorm of

his evil fbi father he constructed his entire life around serving who refuses to give him one single drop of Papa's 'Pproval

his boytoy doctor who overflows with so much no-strings-attached compassion that garak has no clue what to do with besides push back and test his compassion's limits (zero)

and Worf.

[centrally-unplanned]

One bullet I happily bite in debates around animal utils & happiness is a comparison often made of like "you can't say the pain of an animal means less because its less intelligent, that means you would care less about the pain of a baby, its probably not self aware either". Which, yes, is true, which is why I dont care about baby pain as much! I dont think this is a hot take at all actually- babies scream and cry about literally anything and have no clear logic to it, we socially ignore their pain all the time. People dont put it that way but revealed preferences they definitely do not treat baby pain that seriously. We generally do not view them as being in a hellish maelstorm, instead just probably not sensorially developed.

'Not caring as much' is far from not caring, of course, I don't like babies in pain. And this entire analogy is based on the premise that say chickens are dubiously self aware and maybe don't experience pain in the same way, which is not at all proven (just like with babies, this is probabilistic), I'm not really commenting on the object-level debate much at all here. But this isnt the only context where arguments around "you wouldn't treat a *baby* differently ethics-wise, would you?" can come up where the answer is "actually probably yeah I would".

A Series of Sumeru Mishaps [Double Trouble SAGAU]

A body double takes on the land of wisdom and dreams. Meanwhile, the ordinary and extraordinary folk alike are swept into the maelstorm of chaos that is their Creator's 'international ambassador'.

Aka the -Sumeru 3.0 update consumed me like fungi so here we are- special edition. Also known as -Tighnari didn't come home and threw a Jean at me so I'm venting- edition.

MASTERLIST

Sumeru was brimming with both life and death, which you came to learn when you stumbled onto a patch of land reeking of absolute corruption. It was a horrifying yet heartbreaking sight, where the vitality of nature was poisoned by the strange red plants, the air itself suffocated your lungs with the stench of death.

"This looks really terrifying realistically..." You murmured, about to bolt the other way when you noticed something peculiar and green dogging your footsteps, "Huh?"

Patches of fresh grass trailed behind you, like you had purified the very land you stepped on. It was quickly overtaken by the withering again but you had enough time to process what you just saw.

"... can I simply stomp out those withering tumors?"

✾~✾~✾

"Someone already dealt with the withering zone in the southeast?" Tighnari questioned, ears standing rigid in his confusion as he stared at the forest ranger.

"Huh, how strange... whoever our little helper is they are either unfortunate enough to stumble into the withering zone or foolish enough to deal with it on their own." Tighnari didn't mince his words.

In the back of Tighnari's mind, he wondered if this had any connection to the appearance of the Creator's sibling before he shook his head. While the sibling has proven themselves to be highly troublesome- the sibling's tendency to tackle and cuddle the wildlife instantly came to mind- they wouldn't be that reckless, right?

Right???

Somewhere, a sneeze sounded from amongst a cuddle pile consisting of Rishboland tigers and a tired body double.

The customers of Lambad's tavern have grown used to the sight of the Creator's international ambassador lounging around like a sun-tanning cat. What they haven't grown used to, however, was the utter strangeness of their actions.

Every evening, the ambassador would walk into the tavern and take the empty table in the far corner. Ordering only a drink and dessert, they would blankly stare at the wall for hours before they leave.

One day, Lambad decided to finally ask about his strange customer's behaviour- it wasn't because several concerned customers gave him an exorcist’s phone number, of course not-.

The answer Lambad received only unnerved him even further.

"Oh, the music for your tavern is quite soothing to listen to." The ambassador replied nonchalantly.

Somehow, Lambad felt cold amidst the warm atmosphere of his own tavern.

The tavern owner stumbled, confused and a little terrified, "But- the tavern doesn't play music?"

A cryptid smile was his final answer, and Lambad ran away under the guise of getting more food. The ambassador's humming haunted his retreating figure.

The gossip rushing through Sumeru that evening only strengthened the rumours of a 'mad foreigner' or 'the Creator hears the music of the winds, serenaded by the adoring Anemo Archon'.

Surprisingly enough, those two rumours never got connected to one another.

✾~✾~✾

"As the Creator's ambassador and body double you must be aware of the dangers the rainforest presents, correct?" Tighnari's ears twitched in irritation as you guiltily knelt dogeza-style before him.

"So why would you fool-hardily run to a ruin drake and let it attack you? Have you lost your sense of awareness? Did you perhaps eat one of those mushrooms I specifically told you not to?"

The forest ranger's calm voice took an underlining growl, stifling his instincts to lock you in his room and prevent you from running headfirst into danger.

Perhaps you won't notice if your injuries took you a little longer to heal?

"... OST."

Tighnari snapped out of his thoughts, "Pardon?"

You sheepishly avoided his stern gaze, "The battle OST was so good that I have the habit of... finding new enemies just to listen to it?"

"... so you did eat those hallucinogenic mushrooms."

✾~✾~✾

Port Ormos was no stranger to eccentric individuals, especially since it readily welcomes and houses Akademiya students who had to trade their genius minds for something- if you'd questioned the older folk around the docks, they would tell you of a strange Akademiya student who used to come around the evening to throw bags into the river while cackling. It was only after that student's expulsion did people realised those bags he threw were his failed experiments: dead mice, dead fungi, missing people, etc.-

It was quite normal to see a student from the Akademiya having an existential crisis or being arrested in public. But the person wildly dancing in the middle of the street was not from the Akademiya.

In fact, the madman strangely resembled the tiny memorial statues of the Creator.

"Mom, is that person alright?" A young boy innocently pointed at the twirling figure.

His mother quickly ushered him away, "Ignore them, sweetie, and pray to the Creator that their troubled soul is laid to rest."

"If fungi bad, why cute?" Arapaha had no idea how to deal with the Rainbow Not-Nara. The trees had welcomed the Not-Nara with wealthy growth, the winds joyously sang and the waters have turned a pure blue for the return of the Rainbow Not-Nara.

And yet-

"Release the bad shroom-kin, Rainbow Not-Nara! Shroom-kin bad, and not cute!" Aragana, their youngest, fumed, bouncing as they angrily waved their stick at the Rainbow Not-Nara.

This particular group of Aranara had stumbled upon their Rainbow Not-Nara by accident, having followed the sound of someone singing Arana's music off-key.

They expected to find the Golden Nara and Paimon, though the Golden Nara's singing was more harmonious and deeper than this particular voice.

The Rainbow Not-Nara choking cuddling a group of fungi in the middle of a cave was certainly not what they expected to find.

The Rainbow Not-Nara's aura turned gloomy, like blackened skies and red cubes descending, as their grasp around the unusually still fungi tightened, "Fungi is cute!"

"That's not true!" Aragana blustered, "Aragana is way more good than that bad shroom-kin! A-And way more cuter!"

Silence descended upon the clearing.

"Aragana, if you wanted me to hold you too you could've just say so..." Rainbow Not-Nara spoke gently, like dewdrops upon the fragile leaves in the midst of a rainstorm, loosening their grip to make room for the stuttering Aranara.

The fungus made its move at that very moment.

"AHHH BAD SHROOM-KIN!! RELEASE THE RAINBOW NOT-NARA'S FACE BAD SHROOM-"

You: it's an onion

Doppelgänger: for the last time it's a tree-

You: *waves at the Tree of Dreams* it's just a gigantic space onion, you can't change my mind

Doppelgänger: You- Traveler, tell them!

Traveler: ... Paimon thought it was a giant onion when we found it too

Paimon: You traitor! You asked that Aranara if the tree was edible!
