Hmm, I am looking through endless Ultimania translations to find a bit of information on a Crisis Core scene that will help me finish a post but as usual I became distracted.

(From the Crisis Core guide).

I was thinking about this fusion pod that Hojo lets Zack enter. Hojo can also apparently use it to physically enhance subjects?

Somehow Zack is infused to become stronger and then….

Hmmm.

Too much enhancement leads to degradation for SOLDIERs.

Alas, they all have their limits.

Well. Except one…

“You do not have the ability to copy unto others. Your DNA cannot be spread. Thus your body cannot deteriorate.”

Sephiroth’s cells have no limitations. How proud Hojo must have been, to discover that his first-rate science experiment, could not degrade or reach the limit of his cells.

He could enhance Sephiroth endlessly, making him stronger and stronger. Always superior to Hollander’s experiments. Never reaching a limit to what Project S could endure.

There was no threshold, was there?

#uff #i also read again that hojo won jurisdiction over the science department because he proved project s was superior #to project g #sephiroth was pitted against angeal and genesis even when they were still infants #i am like sephiroth looking through the data room 😂 #trying to understand everything #ff7 #final fantasy 7 #sephiroth #genesis rhapsodos #crisis core #hojo #fvii crisis core #ffvii #zack fair

obviously you can do whatever you want but there’s nothing that immediately turns me off a piece of fan content faster than a complete refusal to engage with the source material

#discourse #this is why the whole guapo verse whatever is so deeply stupid to me. sorry #‘I love these characters but I don’t support the media’ ok well the characters exist in the context of the media #you remove that context you remove a core part of the characterization and you’re left with a sock puppet of a character #aesthetic without any of the traits that made them interesting to begin with. #if the original media is so untouchably bad then why? how would you fix it? there’s a lot of ways to engage with problematic media #other than just pretending it doesn’t exist. #I try not to post about discourse for my own sanity but there’s nothing I hate more than fandom decontextualizing characters #ESPECIALLY when people try to act morally superior for ignoring canon. #in the kindest possible way. ​if the source is really that untouchable consider looking into different media.

I'm glad James Somerton is getting debunked because, as someone who used to watch his content, that video he made about gay fitness culture being because of people being jealous of buff nazis has lived in my head rent free ever since he posted it. At least once a week I remember it exists, go, "That seems... weird, but okay," and then just have to continue my day while thinking about it

#i feel vindicated for thinking that video was weird #to be clear this isn't a 'i never liked james somerton so i'm superior' post #i liked a lot of the videos he posted and am trying to actively look into the creators he ripped off #but still #that video was always so bizarre to me #james somerton #hbomberguy

One thing I've learned rewatching Link Click:

Lu Guang is so full of shit

#Anton don't you read these tags we'll finish season 2 #But onto the rant #Bro really trying to come out here like “death is a node you can't change” “your rash actions have cost people lives” blah blah blah #YOU'RE SO FULL OF SHIT YOU GAY BOY #LOOK AT EVERYTHING YOU'VE DONE #AND YOU WANT TO ACT LIKE YOU HAVE SOME MORAL SUPERIORITY #YOU'RE SO FULL OF SHIT #I want them to be happy..... #link click spoilers #link click #shiguang #shiguang daili ren #It's so fucking funny listening to him lie

I know mahiru is often seen as not smart (his official stats from the guidebook give him a 2 out of 10 for tactics and I think the mental stat is more about mental stability?) and sure he's not a tactical genius like mikuni or touma (both have 10/10 in tactics) but mahiru is extremely socially/emotionally intelligent, which is an intelligence often overlooked in favour of "classic" intelligence (like being good at math or things like chess).

But unlike other characters mahiru knows when to stand his ground and when to lay low and change a person's view slowly over time.

Misono wasn't on his side in the beginning, even saying mahiru could be his servant when mahiru agreed to work with him, but mahiru quickly picked up on the fact that misono was lonely and offered to be his friend. Now misono trusts him completely and recognizes that mahiru's strength lies in gaining allies.

Shuhei openly hated vampires and treated them as things and mahiru responded by humanizing them, listing examples of vampires acting just like normal people, laying the first stone for shuhei to stop wanting to kill all vampires.

He was the one who proposed the idea that tsubaki would come to rescue lilac because tsubaki sees his subclass as family and he was right.

Neither lawless nor licht were overly impressed by him when they first met him, but by the time he asks them to rescue tsurugi especially lawless is one of his biggest supporters.

In C3 he understood that he wasn't going to be able to move if he opposed them and joined them instead, allowing him and the other eves to meet. He also correctly concluded that getting tsurugi on their side was key because he was central to C3's/touma's plans and in the end it saved his life and allowed him to stop touma.

Mahiru consistently trying to protect tsubaki's subclass might also come in handy soon. They might not like C3, but both lilac and sakuya can vouch for mahiru as a person they can trust not to kill them and to aid them in stopping tsubaki from destroying himself.

And stopping tsubaki by convincing him to stop is perfectly logical. A servamp can't be killed as far as we know. Combat only gets you so far. If C3 want to create a lasting co-existence between vampires and humans getting both sides to stop killing each other and to learn to forgive is the only way.

Trying to solve this conflict through conversation and not violence is neither shortsighted nor childish, it's the only reasonable solution.

#servamp #mahiru shirota #mahiru doesn't have to be a genius at tactics as long as he has enough of “smart” people on his side and gets them to exchange information #touma was kind of screwed the second mahiru got tsurugi to turn against him within a week or so #and even with 13 mikunis it looks like mikuni might be screwed #it might turn into a simple numbers game at this point #all the eves sans mikuni and almost all servamps sans jeje and lily are on mahiru's side #add to that the enterity of C3 including some people believed to be dead and tsubaki's subclass against tsubaki lily and mikuni #(I'm excluding jeje because he's captured right now) #that's a lot of people against a small group that didn't bother to gather people loyal to their cause #this isn't chess where both sides start with the same amount of pieces and you can whittle down your opponent #while mikuni played chess mahiru played shogi even if he didn't know it #taking pieces mikuni discarded and adding them to his own side #I'm not sure if superior skill/power in a few single persons means that much if you have a huge number of also skilled/powerful people #working together to stop you #even without literary knowledge that tells me that the heroes are going to win I would bet on mahiru's side #even mikuni's arguments trying to stop tsubaki's subclass from intervening are weak

I wish puppet Zelda’s existence had some actual, tangible consequences in the story.

Like as far as anyone knows before the battle with phantom Ganon, someone they trusted and saw as an ally arrived to bring misery on their people. Surely they’re not all so busy worshiping the ground totk zeldy walks on that they all just accept that she’d decide to do that with no pushback whatsoever? Hell Yunobo is worried that the monster she summoned to try and kill him might hurt her instead of being pissed that she summoned a monster to kill him. Like what if a few of the elderly Zora, still grieving Mipha and now poisoned by sludge, take it as a sign that allying with Hyrule is a bad idea? Or Yunobo shakes off the brainwashing, sees what’s become of his people, and wants her to answer for it? Sidon learns that “Zelda” attacked his father and decides he’s not interested in hearing excuses for her actions if she’d go so far as to harm his only living family? Riju feels torn because she doesn’t want to believe someone she considers a friend would cause so much suffering, but the Gerudo are calling for justice and she has to place their needs above everything else? Tulin ends up at odds with his father because Teba insists on staying quiet so they don’t harm their relationship with Hyrule? There are so many juicy story threads presented by the concept of a fake Zelda that could put Link and the sages in conflict with their communities, loved ones, and each other that just never go anywhere because even the fake Zeldy Ganondorf built is too perfect to ever be questioned

#bluebird.txt #salt of the kingdom #if there’d been any consequences for puppet Zelda she’d have been a really cool story element #but as is she just makes everyone (especially Link) look like a huge fucking moron for not sussing her out sooner #at a certain point it’s like guys for fuck’s sake she wants you dead #you can be a little pissed that your friend is trying to kill you it won’t be the end of the world #hyrule warriors proves superior to totk in every way yet again #at least when og HW did a puppet Zelda plot it had some genuinely interesting conflict between Sheik and Impa #totk neg

entering the story and deciding it's your mission to save your favourite depressed, lowkey suicidal, losing-hope blorbo

#some people enter the story as a villain and want to NOT DIE #and others are isekai'd as background filler that just want the character they love to live and be happy #there are plenty of examples of this trope but i thought it would be funny to throw derelict favourite on there T-T #like bro there are legendary tier stories and comparing them to the regular ones in the genre is so so funny to me #compares solo leveling to like. spare me great lord #the difference a male vs female lead can make in comic content is sooooooo funny #like yeah the plots are like 80% the same tropes over and over #but that just makes it very funny #it's not a surprise that the romance genre in manwha tends to have fem leads but it is very funny #if you look for a male lead the universe stares into your soul and asks if you are looking for yaoi #XD #omniscient reader's viewpoint is enough romance for me #male leads that have no romantic interest and actively try to stay away from romance subplots in their isekai'd world are superior anyway #💥🦅🔥

I need to see this pathetic man animated

#just these crumbs. itd be enough #poor little meow meow who needs to have some sense knock into him 😔 #also i wonder if hes looking at the cameras bc hes the only one to have noticed them or if hes trying to show of a bit #he doesnt say a thing in bonten. i wonder if he calmed his superiority complex a bit (probably following senjus death) #takeomi akashi #also the second image may not be him. i just decided it was

Hi!! The dashboard unfucker is honestly a godsend. It's like the update never happened. You need tampermonkey to use it but it's so easy to get the dashboard unfucker to work.

GASP. YOU ARE RIGHT! I just tried it and it was like magic 😭 Bless you for confirming this for me!!!

#I am so happy to have my old dashboard back!! Bless!! #me #personal #tumblr #i was *trying* to be forbearing and optimistic because god knows i know devs are people too #but GOD I *HATE* the new changes #I *HATE* them #after reddit and twitter fucked everything up for themselves earlier this year and we got a flock of newcomers seeking safehaven #i thought we were the superior site #and then tumblr was like 'i know why don't I make this look EXACTLY LIKE THE THINGS YOU'RE TRYING TO FLEE' #alienating all of the old standby tumblr veterans and users #and probably the new ones too I mean could ANYONE like that change? it seems to be universally reviled... #anyway thank you!!

i need you guys to look at my pretty pretty rocks 👀💕❤❤💕

#went to an annual rock show today!!!!! #so many rocks!!!!! #thankfully i set myself a cash budget or my god we would have been there. a lot longer. #such beautiful stuff though!!!!! i've started collecting slabs #because i like to display them on my wall like a collage #i'm enamored with all these shapes and colors and patterns..... #some of the sellers told me what the rocks were but i have a really REALLy horrible memory so I'll have to look them up again later #but I got so many for me and also some (not pictured) for my partner as well..... #i've been keeping my eye out for some specific things since before we even started dating and finally got my hands on some x))) #and also some that just have like #patterns and colors I think he'll like!!!! it's so much fun...... #ahhHHHHHHHH I LOVE MINERALS AND STONES SO MUCH #they also had a lot of petrified dinosaur poop slabs which were actually. so beautiful. #anyway #heheheheh #literally all of this if i was trying to buy from the rock stores here or online they'd have charged me probably $20-$50 each..... jfc #especially some of the special ones i got like #finding them below $80-$120 for a small stupid tumbled version is REAL hard #my stuff #over half the sellers were just selling tumbled stones though :( saddened by just how many lake superior agates i saw that were tumbled #they look SO cool naturally... why.. tumble them...

I'm not gonna screenshot it bc 1/it really doesn't matter that much and 2/the person who made the comment is a kid but: a while ago I made a comic that's supposed to be a genuine study and reinterpretation of someone else's sprite comic (made in the spirit of authenticity too - to recreate the vibes of the sprite comics from that era, iirc very specifically because it's funny) and I got a comment on that comic's post that's like "glow up"

which is a compliment obvs. and the commenter probably didn't mean anything by it, it's a common expression. but I've been trying to find a way to gracefully put that comment away ever since it appeared lol

I just very much don't want my art to be taken as trying to one-up someone else's art when that's not the piece's intention. especially when the piece that inspired my art is perceived as "low effort" or "shitpost" or stuff like that. I did mention in the tags of that post that my considering it a study is entirely genuine, and I can legitimately write pages about the cool stuff I find in it other than and inherent in the haha funneys, but that's not for you guys that's for me. I just think that approaching art competition-first like that is a miserable way to do it, and (tipping into overthinking here if the whole tiny-comment-got-stuck-in-my-brain-for-almost-a-month part hasn't given that away yet lol) I really don't want that to be the takeaway from my own art. at least generally. if I actually think the source material is trash and what I'm doing is genuinely categorically better I'd just come out and say it lmao

#bakuspeech #yeah it's the darkhog sprite comic #honestly I don't love comments that put my art and other artists' art in a hierarchy in general. wherever my art lands on that scale #especially when it comes to character writing and trans 'representation' #which like. idk man I'm writing One character. he's NOT gonna be The Trans Experience. he's gonna be one character. #but yeah I'd guess I'm writing it all out in a post bc it's not really a race that anyone opts in #I don't actively participate but by virtue of how my art is perceived I just end up on the scale anyway #so uh. I'm suggesting that we do not bring the scale into my house at all lmao #there's also the like. Don't Yuck My Yum guideline of looking at art that's like #I like the things I'm aping! most of the times! if I don't say it's shit and I'm drawing stuff from it usually that means I like it lol #and then you kinda come in like wow what you're doing here is better than the thing you like. and it's not like yknow. #really anything. it's extremely trivial comparatively. but you are in fact yucking my yum there #tldr please try not to think abt art u like vs art u don't as ''better'' or ''worse'' and #have grace for the things that don't please u personally. anyways I'm omw to finishing the frog now. just need to fell all the seams down #and put that boy in da spinner for a ride. and then it can live in a gift bag until the day #I really enjoy holding it actually... maybe after this one I'll make something else. tbh slick stretchy fabrics are superior to fuzzy fabri #doesn't pill And cooler to touch. stuffed toys for the subtropical population #I'll get a combilation of pics once the thing's at its new home. but for now. we must finish the job
