psa that the day there are no jgy stans left on tumblr dot com is the day i am dead

but rest assured i'll go to my grave exactly as i lived: obnoxiously proclaiming to everyone within earshot how great lianfang-zun is. narratively, metaphorically, spiritually. sexually, too, like why limit myself. i like to keep my options open

#the spirit of su minshan possessed me for a minute there but like. i'm fine with it #jin guangyao #he did crimes??? good for him 😌 #editing this post to add that while the tone here is clearly joking #i really am fundamentally still engaged with this fandom #and with this book #almost exlcusively because of my enjoyment of jgy #even xiyao is secondary for me like i love it and i'm ride or die for it obvs #but jgy as a character is the main draw for me. and he would have me by the throat even if there was no zewu-jun #(tho i think jgy's life would be more depressing for his absence obviously) #but he is just. /clenches my fists!!! #THE most compelling character in the story and i cannot stop thinking about him!! cannot will not!! #who else in this book has his range? who else can be the doe-eyed idealist AND the spy with blood on his hands who ends a war? #who else is two different greek tragedies and at least two separate shakespearean tragedies rolled into one antagonist #an antagonist who but for the POV of the novel could very easily have been the protagonist #whose moral event horizon is so deeply entwined with his own trauma and abuse that there is no way to meaningfully separate #the violence he does to others from the systemic violence that was done to him for his whole life? #who else in this book manages to get five separate sect leaders utterly obsessed with him no matter how you choose #to interpret that obsession? #no one!!! that's who!! #ain't no one else in the jianghu doing it like lianfang-zun and that's just a goddamn fact

for anyone who doesn't watch any minecraft youtubers that do lore/servers, please.

try to imagine a show where every single character has their own point of view show, with their own shenanigans, storyline, editing-style, etc.

you go from watching a happy little man with elf ears and a whimsical smile who's a theme park owner. go to another pov and it's a giant fucking green guy with horns and cyborg parts with funky music as his intro and the sound of a goat crying and he's cackling madly explaining how he's about to shoot a missile at his neighbor every day for the rest of their life because the neighbor dug a hole on his property. he's neighbors with the whimsical theme park owner

i cannot watch normal shows anymore

#now i just watch a show like hmm. HMMM. WHY CANT I SEE WHAT THAT BLORBO BACK THERE IS UP TO ON A DAILY BASIS!!!! #mcyt is for the bitches who always liked the comedic relief character or antagonist better than the main character #mcyt #hermitcraft #mika-posts

S2 of Hazbin already giving me X-Men vibes in the sense that the entire story revolves around two old men making their relationship drama everyone else's problem

I have not seen x men so I'm just taking the latter part of this ask

I mean considering how vox is apparently gonna be the main MAIN antagonist of season 2 that sounds about right LMAOOOO

and you know it's funny because vox legitimately has like no other motivation for the hotel other than alastor, any conflict with the hotel and him is absolutely going to involve alastor

like. most of the hotel literally have not even interacted with him other than PENTIOUS who's in HEAVEN. and well angel dust but they haven't had a proper on-screen interaction yet, all we know is they know of each other's presence due to their connections with val.

in fact, most of the main cast have had more interactions with or at least been in the same room with val more than vox. like angel dust is a given, but charlie interacted with val in episode 4, niffty, husk and cherri directly faced val eye to eye in episode 6 (and well in niffty's case, a bit more than that LMAO). vaggie's at least seen val from heaven's courtroom through the magic ball thing.

so honestly seems like the vee the hotel is most familiar with is val, which is funny because alastor has literally never been in a room with val on screen (insert alastor's sex aversion and val being an alastor repellent joke here). and even though he never interacted with velvette, he's the only one of the main cast to have ever been in a room with her. alastor being here like "yes please go ahead and waste all your interactions on valentino. I will sit here being the only one to interact with the other 2 vees, who may be just as bad as him but are ones I am able to tolerate a bit more, just don't put me in a room with him."

anyways sorry I got a bit off track but yeah with vox being the main MAIN antagonist, 100% his and alastor's drama will probably have to take the forefront considering he's the only one of the main cast he has any sort of significant interaction with.

#ask #osrs.txt #“vox will be the main antagonist of season 2” and the only main character he cares about is alastor #season 2 is just gonna be the rest of the hotel sitting back eating popcorn as they watch the drama unfold #hazbin vox #hazbin hotel vox #vox #hazbin alastor #hazbin hotel alastor #alastor #hazbin hotel valentino #hazbin valentino #valentino #the vees #radiostatic #staticradio #onewaybroadcast

The fact that Main-verse Ooo is as good and as kind as it is (relative to the other universes shown so far, at least, it's obviously not perfect) all because of the same character that starts off as the OG series' antagonist, the person we were made to see as the bad guy (albeit an often ineffectual one) for several seasons, is making me lose my mind.

Imagine finding out the guy you spent your childhood beating up and saving princesses from is in fact a driving catalyst behind you being able to exist, and not only exist but also live in a world that knows what kindness is. All because that man, the same man who you've witnessed do terrible things, once met a little girl and taught her how to be good.

Simon's story really shows us that even if you lose your way and forget how it is to be good yourself, the world keeps the memory for you. That act of love Simon showed Marcy by protecting her and seeing her as more than the monster she thought herself to be created ripples upon ripples, small at first but eventually enough to help give their wreckage of a world—a world that easily could have been forsaken, its goodness overlooked because of its inhospitable remains—a chance to grow into something beautiful. Because of those very same ripples Simon created, the people of Ooo grew up in a world where they know enough about kindness that they were able and willing to spare the 'bad guy' some, to see beyond the wreckage and allow him to grow too.

In saving Marceline, Simon helped to not only to save the world, but also himself.

and btw the protagonist is just the main character of a story, the antagonist is just someone who opposes them, regardless of their affiliations. the protagonist is not necessarily a hero and the antagonist is not necessarily a villain. btw

Spenser in "Crafting a Mystery with Spenser Starke": So Travis sent me a big, long narrative explanation of how he got into Candela. [...] He gave me a monster that essentially was trying to take on the form of other people, and he gave me the idea that Allison Suarez was hurt because of this monster. He gave me all the gifts in his backstory, and that's the kind of thing where as a GM, you just go, "Well, guess my work here is done."

me:

#Travis like hope this won't cause any problems [creates the main antagonist] in true domino meme form #also Travis really is like every single time like “hello GM would you like a novel on my character” and every time the GM is like “ilu” #Candela Obscura #Circle of Needle and Thread #Candela things #Spenser Starke #Travis Willingham

"There is that final embrace that I think helps with letting his brother go in a way. Juan has been the one who drove Cesare to become what he is now, and I think Cesare is building walls around his heart. You do get colder and less sentimental when you take that path. He has to go on and he can't mourn him forever, especially since he's responsible for his death. He's not making excuses for what he is anymore, and what he wants to be. He ultimately feels that it's the right thing for himself. It's something that he focused on and I think he can control his mind into having no second thoughts. And that's the only way you can rule in that era, really." — FRANÇOIS ARNAUD

#who up thinking about the tragic doomed brothers who are pawns in their father's game of ambitions? #juan is a great example of an impactful deceased character in media bc his death/aftermath shaped the rest of cesare's story until the end #like he was the one who drove his brother to finally become the cesare borgia he was meant to be and take the path he always wanted #the theme itself goes too hard as well like...foundational fratricide that led him to become the perfect prince™...well YES #the past shapes the destiny of the future it's why cesare/juan are forever linked. cesare decided juan's fate and juan formed cesare's path #also cesare ultimately doing it for //himself// is what makes him the most iconic main antagonist of all time #juan borgia #cesare borgia #the borgias #theborgiasedit #perioddramaedit #smallscreensource #tvgifs #filmtvtoday #cinemapix #tvarchive #juan and cesare #tvedit #dailyflicks #by jen

the sheep do not deserve the absolute shredding they get from the fanbase 😭 it isn’t generally the fault of the fans, i blame it more on whatever the fuck bones studio did to fifteen in the anime adaptation bc fuck knows that was all over the place, but man i wish people were a little more sympathetic towards them

yes they absolutely ordered chuuya around like a dog and yes they stabbed him. we can agree that was bad. but i feel like you really have to consider the context

the sheep are separate from other organisations in bsd in that they are formed entirely of young orphans who are likely mostly traumatised. they live on the streets and also have to cope with larger organisations like the mafia lurking around— they are scared and rightfully so

i always think back to the lines in storm bringer where it mentions the sheep drinking alcohol under a bridge. they’re clearly all very troubled kids who are struggling just to survive

yeah i don’t think that cornering and stabbing chuuya was right but i don’t hold much blame over their heads for the things they did when it’s obvious that it’s their situation making them so scared and paranoid. the sheep weren’t just some average toxic friends that were out to get you, they were traumatised kids trying to survive

#bsd #bsd the sheep #bsd chuuya #bsd shirase #this feels so repetitive but i’m tired pls forgive me #just needed to talk about them bc i love the sheep and the amount of hate they get is frankly strange to me #i’ve seen more hate for characters like shirase than i have for actual main antagonists #also i do not personally think dazai was the *entire* reason that they betrayed chuuya #this is not abt him #this isn’t a post i’m aiming to spark debate with #bungo stray dogs #bungou stray dogs #bsd fifteen

*complaining for no reason again because i am bored* i need more ppl to know that these. are all the same person these are literally canonically all the exact same individual person im begging u

literally almost all the ganondorfs are the exact same individual and almost all the ganons are the exact same individual, almost all the ganondorfs & ganons are the same exact person just in different forms and circumstances. except for FSA and maybe whatever the fuck is going on with TotK ganondorf but i still think it’s weird that he still has golden eyes & rounded ears when even the gerudo in TotK’s ancient past dont, but anyway ashfjsbfjsn

#not like you always have to subscribe to canon because it’s often impossible to know the truth of certain things #or some things that are canonical just suck and should be changed anyway but like #of all the things that are like relatively basic facts for ppl engaging in the Lore or whatever #ppl are like always. Always talking about ganondorf as if every iteration of him is a different person just like link & zelda #but so much of his character development stems from the fact that WW ganon and TP ganon are both different timeline offshoots of OoT ganon #i’m ​not even citing the ‘Official Timeline’ on this because it is silly & confusing but i just literally mean #in terms of basic canon continuity #that WW and TP were conceptualized even in the early 2000s to be the events that occur distantly after the two timeline splits OoT created #because OoT is a game about time travel and the entire concept of the split timelines in this series #originated from the two different scenarios that are created by link & zelda’s use of the master sword and the ocarina #WW ganondorf and TP ganondorf are both literal older versions of OoT ganondorf in 2 different futures #not to mention all of the ganons in the early games. OoT was made as a prequel that both literally and figuratively #attempted to humanize the main antagonist of the series #OoT ganondorf at the time WAS the ‘ganondorf with character development and an actual motivation’ #WW ganondorf (who is the same person.) just actually got to vocalize what specifically his motivation was #which is great!! and also retroactively gives OoT ganondorf more context & depth #can u tell i am off my meds at the moment and have nothing better to do with my time ahsjfhskfhdj

Janus's characterization was at its peak in SvS pt 1. In this essay, I will...

#he was an asshole he was a drama queen he was a sympathetic antagonist #he was looking out for thomas he was manipulating roman for his own benefit #he was flirting with every other side present #he was talking about the dangers of following societal norms while simultaneously playing the role of a theatrical villain #he was the moment he was the main character #he OWNED that entire episode even after he gets “defeated” #sanders sides #thomas sanders #janus sanders #janus tss #janus ts #sanders sides janus #ts janus #tss janus #sasi #tss #thomas sanders sides

I'm just gonna say it again real quick:

Yes!! Iron Man is a tragedy! It has and always has been since the very first appearance in 1963 which describes itself, Tony's life, and legacy, as such.

Tony causes most of his issues himself, he is his biggest villain, a majority of his rogues gallery are caricatures of the worst versions of himself brought to life (when they're not just being racist cuz...60s...). The worst thing about being Tony Stark is that he can't stop being Tony Stark (he tried!!) That is the point.

The majority of pain Tony goes through, is pain he inflicts on himself, whether intentionally or inadvertently. That is the point.

He is not A villain (at least. Not usually. There are...some rough moments and arcs that are. Not great. As there is with any character as old as he is). But he is his own main antagonist.

#I—just—*slams fists on floor*—I WANNA PUT HIM IN A PIETRI DISH AND VIOLENTLY SHAKE HIM #tony stark #iron man #616 tony stark #marvel #marvel comics #*screams cries throws up* IT'S NOT HIS FAULT HIS CHARACTER WAS ASSASSINATED IN 2005 IN A WAY THAT HASN'T BEEN RECOVERED FROM YET #***starts openly weeping*** if the next main IM series is bad it'll have been 20 years of this shit make it STOOOOOP #being his own antagonist! his actions and mental state and poor judgement calls reaonates with people!! #I'm wildly under qualified to talk about this stuff but #I feel like that's *why* people with mental health issues. self esteem issues. addiction issues. flock to him. #he is not a BAD person. he is a person. who makes mistakes. and devastates himself. and even leaves himself half dead sometimes. #who doubts himself. is simultaneously oversensitive and alarmingly oblivious. he is a mess. that is a fundamental requirement of being him #that. resonates with people. it's *relatable*. Tony Stark is a lightning rod of interest for people...like him. hurting. sad. desperate. #and he brings *enjoyment*. he brings jokes. comfort. #he brings hope #because if a guy like *that* can be *iron man*...maybe we'll all be ok too #it's solidarity but also it's a kick in the right direction. it's saying ''it's ok that this is how you feel. I'm right there with you.'' #''but you can't stay here forever. we always need to try'' #Iron Man is and always has been about the future. after all.

One thing that is sadly lacking in the Death Note fanfiction community is Light being written as this ominous and creepy character. Like yes he is a goofy little meow meow, yes he has been dissected to hell and back and portrayed as what exactly what he is (delulu serial killer) but.

Where is the average person's view of Kira? A seemingly godlike figure that lives in the shadows of society. That feels omniscient and scary. Who can kill you at any moment they wanted after they had your name.

Then Light Yagami, Kira's facade. Whose every facate is a lie, who is always where he needs to be, watching, listening, planning. Who was able to fool people close to him for years. Who killed the greatest detective in the world without needing to lift a finger, just manipulation.

I feel like through experiencing the series through Light's (fucking fantastic) point of view, we lost the real oomph and terrifying impact that was his character.

#just cause like #he would be allauded as one of the best villains if he was an antagonist #but we see him differently as the main character #you know? #i hope to play on this in my eldritch light fic a bit #cause baby at base bones he is fucking scary #death note #light yagami #kira #death note headcanons #death note rambles #death note take #character analysis

MDZS: gives us a perfectly happy, wonderfully written WangXian that hits all the Good™ Romance™ tropes while keeping the development grounded and genuine.

Me: *crying, instead, over Jiang Cheng/Nie Huaisang and Nie Mingjue/Meng Yao (Jin Guangyao)/Lan Xichen, clutching them tightly to bosom over the (also fantastically written) tragedy of their past traumas ripping them apart and leaving them scarred and alone and bitter without any supports to lean on*
