To me, Machete kind of has the energy of a secondary villain/coldhearted side character in someone else's story that a lot of fans latch onto, moreso than the protagonist. Question is, would he be the villain in anyone's story?

Why, thank you! I'm actually glad to hear he gives off that vibe. I don't think he set out to become a villain but a lot of people certainly view him as one.

#in the 16th century canon he starts out as an introverted but sincerely well meaning guy that never quite manages to find his social niche #he was a sensitive kid and when subjected to enough pressure #his insecurity fearfulness and powerlessness mutate into distrust resentment aggression suffocating repression and self-restraint #I don't think he's a bad person in fact he consistently tries very hard to do the right thing #do his job properly avoid letting people down and get through life with a sense of dignity #but he is supposed to come across kind of cold impersonable and difficult to be around if you don't know him personally (and very few do)#people can sense there's something wrong with him and are put off by it #Vatican is a nest of vipers and as the stakes rise he retreats deeper into his coldblooded untouchable work persona #he has no choice but to start lying scheming blackmailing and eliminating his enemies #in order to maintain his position keep Vasco safe their relationship under wraps and his own head above water #essentially playing by the same rules everyone else in the holy see has been playing with for centuries #eventually he loses his spot as the secretary of state and is manipulated/forced to take on a role in the roman inquisition #and if people were sort of iffy about him before being the authority overseeing trials torture excommunications and executions doesn't help #and since he has so few allies and such an infamous reputation he's an easy target for scapegoating whenever necessary #towards the end it dawns on him that he's become the kind of twisted cruel corrupt person he used to fear and despise #and the guilt moral injury and abject self-loathing had largely sapped him of his will to live by the time the final assassin gets him #answered #anonymous #Machete #Vaschete lore #he thought his dream of priesthood would make him a better person more worthy of admiration safety and love but he climbed too high #and got roped up in the dangerous games that take place under god's nose and slowly got strangled to death

reading the boba fett junior novels as a kid: mace windu is the bad guy!!!! >:(((

reading the boba fett junior novels as an adult: jango fett i'm coming for your fucking kneecaps

#the fact that he left his son with posthumous orders to seek out people he knew to be dangerous and cruel #with the implication that he KNEW these people would try to harm/use/kill boba #so that they would destroy boba's sense of trust in others and make him more cold and self-reliant #jango fett seeing that his son is innately kind and trusting and being like ''i gotta do something about that tbh :/''#THIS MAN LEFT HIS SON A CORRUPTION ARC IN HIS WILL #boba fett #jango fett #boba fett junior novels

I will always be so sad and angry that Eragon never recognized how horribly the elves treated him and that no one else helped protect him from it either. Oromis is so insidiously and inexcusably cruel to him and Eragon truly deserved the chance to escape that and see the damage he caused, and also to then beat Oromis into a bloody pulp. And Glaedr too, honestly. He's mostly gone unscathed in my past rants, largely because at least his personality isn't so insufferable, but he ain't shit either. He's fully complicit in all of Oromis's vile abuse, and adds to it himself in certain places. They more than earn Eragon's ire, but they all constantly belittle him and insist that they inherently know better than him about everything, and poor Eragon believes them, so he doesn't fight back. No!!! Every misgiving you have about them is true, and not only should you stand your ground, but you should also start maiming them!!!!!

Oromis's mannerisms are respectful, kind, and gentle, but they in no way indicate his actual feelings. It just serves as a guise, while their actions demonstrate that both he and Glaedr don't have a single shred of respect for Eragon. They don't trust him, they don't put faith in him, they don't care about his wellbeing, and they have so much contempt for him. And they do all that while they take everything from Eragon, demanding he sacrifice himself constantly, and not always just in the interest of beating the Empire! In some cases it's solely an expression of their resentment of him or a way to cut away at the parts of him they don't like.

And Eragon gives them everything, so earnestly and generously. Then they give him jack shit. They only give him whatever suits their intention to use him as a weapon, and even in that, they pick and choose things to withhold according to their disdain for him. Contempt is all he gets in return for his trust and loyalty.

And it makes me sad how Saphira isn't there for him in this. In her defense, she's very young and they harm her also by prioritizing her utility to them over anything else, which she sadly does not recognize either. But beyond that, the elves and Oromis and Glaedr specifically treat her far, far better than they treat Eragon. She's in no way responsible for their actions, but there are places where she enables the abuse. Most often through overlooking it, but sometimes when Eragon rightfully balks at their mistreatment, then turns to Saphira for her input, she tells him, "I trust them and I think you should be deferring to them."

Eragon is so earnest and compassionate and he deserves care, both in the form of other people caring about his wellbeing, and also through the chance for him to learn how he can and should care for himself. Yet at the end of the series, he's so conditioned to accept manipulation and abuse and I just want my poor boy to have a chance to rest and HEAL 😭

#eragon #inheritance cycle #eragon shadeslayer #oromis #glaedr #saphira #im too tired to pull all the receipts for this. maybe later. but believe me I Have Them #its a cold hard canonical fact that oromis is a cruel bastard #this was focused on him and glaedr but the other elves distinctly contribute to this too #notably vanir and arya. also the eldunari have similar issues tbh #why did brom have to die? eragon deserved an authority figure whos not a condescending asshole #catch me thinking of aus where terrible things happen to oromis as a form of catharsis :)

this is a half-baked thought but i get when people say "appledusk cheating doesn't warrant him being killed" because in that sense it's being viewed with the same social sanctions as our society but like. they don't. they live in a society :tm: where his relationship with maple was illegal altogether and could warrant being exiled and losing the support of their community

#warrior cats #deer rambles #him turning his back on her was cold & cruel idc #like there's a lot of issues with mv #but none of the toms going to cat hell sucked ass so bad #sorry to talk about mv discourse

I’m really captivated by the way house md catapults itself between startlingly compassionate takes and just the worst option possible in the name of edginess. The duality keeps me guessing. Oh early 2000’s tv, the way that you are.

#house md #malpractice md #hatecrimes md #he’s an asshole but sometimes they make him more cold and cruel than anticipated #… the episode skin deep can fuck off though

Barriss Offee's grief for Master Luminara Unduli

The scene from Rebels when Kannan and Ezra found Luminara's frozen corpse terrified me as a kid and it really scares me today.

Evanescence's song ''Like you'' inspired me to do this drawing. I started to make the first skethes back in octomber 2022 for the Day of the Dead but in those days my grandmother passed away and I saw her taking her last breath. After one year of grief and healing I decided to finnish my work and get off a weight from my shoulders.

Barriss Offee would have felt totally devastated if she would find out how her old master was given such a cruel end. After this, I would hope the New Jedi Order would give her a proper burial as she deserves.

I censored the face of Luminara because I thought that some people could find it disturbing and trigger fear.

You also can see my drawing (the uncensored version) on https://www.deviantart.com/moonrises/art/Star-Wars-Bariss-Offee-s-grief-1003601014 and my other works on https://www.deviantart.com/moonrises

Need more flayed Robin. Robin being possessed completely. Sweet, funny, intelligent little Robin slowly being replaced by a monster before everyone's eyes.

Bonus points if people take ages to figure it out and they just think Robin is becoming a piece of shit person who makes people feel bad on purpose. He makes her break people's hearts and hurt her loved ones. The real Robin is screaming in silence, desperate to tell them that's not her, that she didn't meant to say that.

The only one who suspects this may not be Robin is Nancy. She has no proof and no doubts either.

#ronance #flayed robin buckley #i imagine it'd be much more subtle than with Will or Billy. He has learned. He might not even posses her fully for a long time -#rather he incites horrible thoughts and emotions in her without her realizing this isn't her #for a long time she may feel she DOES want to snap at Steve. like she DOES want to insult her parents #like she DOES want to make Nancy cry #she becomes cold and cruel but Nancy still trusts her with her life #and she will get her back #flayed robin
