#they give us unhinged

I really can't get over Simon reframing the chimera incident romantically when he finally verbalizes his love for Baz because, first of all, that's very sexy and unhinged of him.
Also, it actually makes sense? Because during CO Baz tell us that Simon is basically unbeatable, and later he says that Simon is "beautiful in battle". And in a way, Simon truly comes alive when he has something to fight, someone to protect. So when a angsty unhinged Baz who can't decide if he wants to "kiss or push" Simon sends a monster after him to scare him, we can read it as practically flirting, even if that wasn't on anyone's confused disturbed little heads atm, cuz truly a monster send after Simon it's a dead monster. And the fact that Simon wasn't scared and instead fought and emerged victorious? It very likely just made Baz like him even more (and was also what deterred him from pulling that shit again, the crazy and dangerous of it all aside, but also cuz what if it just makes Simon hoter?!!). It's kinda on the same level as Simon going to see all of Baz football practices for them, because "surely he must be pLOTting" when in reality Simon was just very into hot and sweaty Baz destroying everyone else on the field.
By sending a monster after Simon, Baz got to see first hand how beautiful Simon is in battle, and while Simon used this as proof of "Evil Baz" atm we know that in retrospect, and in his own unhinged way, there was a part of him that saw himself fighting to keep Baz safe and unharmed as a confession of romantic love (and with Baz being the one getting them in that situation in the first place, he might have been like "you bitch!!" and "haha this didn't go as u planned!" when the chimera turned on Baz, but a part of him was still like "it's ok, i won't let anything actually harm him/put him in actual danger, no matter what he did" which is line with that part in awtwb where Baz is like "you hated me back then Simon, what are u talking about" and Simon goes "yeah sure but I still wouldn't have let anything hurt u")
And I can't definitely see goofy goth "emo shit" Baz frustrated and confused as hell, like he just wanted to scare a guy and is walking away stunned by his beauty in combat and his bravery and how dare he protected him so well??? Truly he wants him dead. Simon not dying can only be described as punishment for Baz's poor dramatic gay heart,

Thank you. I'm sorry.
[First] Prev <–-> Next
#poorly drawn mdzs#mdzs#wei wuxian#jin guangyao#lan wangij#jin ling#LWJ shifting into fight mode was so damn cool. He is always ready to start throwing hands.#It's in a way that befits someone with a bit more bloodlust that his calm demeanor lets on - but nearly always in defense of someone.#What a great synergy with his personal philosophies! see that he is a Genuinely Noble Guy time and time again!#Is is also way more hilarious and unhinged than most people give him credit for? Also yes.#Nothing and no one ever said he did not or would not rip off JGY's hat mid-fight. I think LWJ needs to snatch more wigs LITERALLY.#Yes I'm delaying the part where I have to address the emotional turmoil of Jin Ling stabbing wwx. It gutted me terribly.#What is worse that realizing that someone you respected has done horrible things#than discovering someone who did horrible things being a kind and trustworthy person?#What is more horrifying that realizing other people are extremely complex and cannot be categorized into black and white?#When people hurt us or our loved ones we very much want to make them out to be irredeemable monsters. But they are not.#It is not actually such a terrible fate to just be a person. To be forgiven and forgive is possible. To change is possible.#This lesson is hard. It is something you have to actively challenge yourself to do. Black and white is the innate path to go down.#And its *why* I love Jin Ling so much. He is the character who fights the longest and hardest to challenge social and personal beliefs#He gets a pass for stabbing wwx for being so deliciously conflicted and tormented by it.#And with wrists THAT limp I can't imagine the wound was particularly deep

I've discussed this briefly before, but I really do love the idea of Movie Verse Princess Daisy being an arena-fighting royal like Donkey Kong. While Totomesu and the other kings of Sarasaland handle a majority of the political matters, Daisy is on call to fight one-on-one battles in order to settle disputes, her main responsibility being to get as strong as possible and crush any opponent that's put in front of her.
Tumblr media
It would definitely set up her character as someone who is spunky, tomboyish, and aggressively competitive compared to someone like Princess Peach. Peach, for most of her life, has had to balance both being the primary diplomat and the sole fighter of the Mushroom Kingdom. As a result she approaches everything cautiously, reserving violence as a last resort in order to keep things as simple and courteous as possible. Daisy, meanwhile, is always .5 seconds away from challenging someone to a fist fight in a Denny's parking lot.

I made another PJO girlie, Roman Edition!
Her name is Adonna Leighton, she’s a child of Venus, and she has a magical choker that gives her the ability to conjure up a pair of wings for a short amount of time and fly around like Cupid

#sleep token#here is a thing#there are certain moments when Vessel looks.. no he rather feels.. small#i mean his.. aura? presence? but not in the non-captivating way but as in an emotionally vulnerable way#i don't really have the words to describe this but just like on this picture#bear with me for a minute because this is either gonna sound completely unhinged or make some sort of sense#it's probably just me having a little more time on my hand than i should and just want to see things but..#sometimes he feels so present in a here-i-am as-i-am take-me-as-you-will this-is-all-i-am i-can't-give-more-nor-less it's-just-me sorta way#he feels so human in the rawest sense possible and yet so deep in character maybe even more so than when he creatures or teefs and all#like.. he is just vessel in it's simplicity and without the 'divine' if you will.. simply just vessel#in his barest of existance#a shadow of someone who used to be but not quite anymore#he is in pieces and it is willingly laid bare under the mask and all that bodypaint oh so clear to see for anyone#and that is not the outstreched hand of you-are-not-alone but the outstreched soul that cries you-can-find-yourself-in-me#and that is what i find so heartbreaking about him#this kind if raw openness because the lore says vessel is a conduit for sleep#for us vessel (and the the others) is the conduit of our emotions#and he is there somewhere inbetween the truths#just him a simple human being who sometimes seems to wish not to be human which makes him more human than anything#and that is what i can't describe better than 'sometimes he feels small' and at time even maybe makes me cry a little

Y'know the thing about writing feral/unhinged versions of Orion/Optimus, is that you can't go too far into the feral/unhinged direction to a point where OP's core character traits are lost or become too diminished. After all, in a multiple-continuity franchise like TF, part of what makes the stories make sense is that even if details change (sometimes major details), the characters are still recognizably themselves to one degree or another. (Although this isn't always the case due to executive meddling or some characters being such blank slates from their initial G1 appearances that there's basically nothing to model them off of, but I digress.)
It's pretty much another reason why I love IDW1 Optimus, bc he literally is a canonical feral/unhinged Optimus who's unhinged as a direct consequence of who he is as a person and what he's been through. Like, he still has those fundamental character traits of trying his best to be moral and make good choices, trying to be a role model, etc, except after 4 million years of war and untreated depression he's basically holding onto his sense of self by his fingertips. So when he "goes feral" e.g. losing his temper and beating up/killing people or saying hurtful things, he's feral in a way that's directly tied to his normal personality and not just as a random quirk he has.
IDW OP's feral moments arise from the gaps between "Optimus' attempts to be who he thinks he needs to be" and "the reality of the world that he can't fix/seems to only make worse" that cause him to lose hope, or become cynical, or lose his temper. But in this case, the unhinged-ness makes perfect sense because it arises out of Optimus trying and failing to be the best person or to make the most morally good choices he's trying to make. Basically, the "feral/unhinged" label is just another way of me trying to say that he's not just unhinged because he's weird or because he's a bad person, but because it's an emotional reaction (more like an emotional explosion due to pent-up emotions) to the context he exists in.
I'd also say that IDW OP's personality being generally reserved/stoic and (trying to be) noble works in tandem with those moments he has of going feral because it makes him more realistic. His psyche is treated in a way where the writers are like, "Hey what if the pressure of having to be everyone's idol and be the best person in the galaxy at all times actually broke Optimus down mentally and emotionally?" It makes IDW OP far more relatable. Instead of naturally being a perfect Christ-like figure who never wavers in his morals or convictions and is just naturally a nice person who always has the wisest and best answer, being a good person is something that IDW OP has to consciously strive to be. Even when he feels like it's useless, or the cycle of violence will never stop, or any attempts he makes to help only ends up with things becoming worse.
And I feel like this does a service not only to IDW Optimus as a character, but also as a sort of moral/philosophical perspective for the reader to ponder upon? I feel like culture at large (or at least my experience of it) tends to believe that "goodness" in a person is simply an innate feature that people are born/not born with, and that being "good" means that you must be good at all times, both in your actions as well as the way you feel emotionally about yourself and the world. Like, there's a tendency for our vision of "a good person" to be good in every aspect at all times without having to try to be a good person. So I think IDW Optimus' character stands as a good example of how someone can be good at heart but still struggle to maintain those feelings of optimism and hope and justice. It's a good idea to have such a paragon of a character (in-universe and out-of-universe) be so conflicted and to even be mistaken, misguided, or make things worse because it shows that goodness is as much about "trying to behave/act in a way that is good" and not just "existing as an innately good person."
It's way more realistic for a person to want to be good, try to be good, and sometimes/often fail than it is for them to just be a good person. I enjoy the fact that IDW Optimus is both a good person at heart, but also has to strive to be a good person and live up to other people's expectations of what they see in him. I like how he wants to be a good person and change society for the better, but he also spends a good amount of time either feeling hopeless and alone or being angry at/detached from other people because of how frustrated they make him. He's realistically portrayed as someone who wants to be good and hopeful and change things for the better, but is also mentally and emotionally broken by that burden because of how impossible it is for him to Fix Everything and be the Perfect Prime/Leader/Autobot that people see him as. It's this fascinating mixture of "yes, this is who he is as a person" but also "there are things he desires to be that he could never possibly become or live up to."
This got really far off based from feral/unhinged Optimus sdklfjaslkdlfkas. The TLDR is that if people want unhinged OP, I feel like they should give IDW OP a chance because he IS unhinged but he's unhinged in a way that's a realistic/thematic representation of how being an Absolute Good is impossible. And how being a good person isn't just about Existing And You Are A Good Person, but rather goodness is a constant state of flux in which you adjust, you make mistakes, you lose your temper and feel hopeless, but then you pick yourself up and try again.
Tumblr media
Also IDW OP really likes climbing in dangerous wilderness and jumping out of flying vehicles which I think is very feral and sexy of him to do.
#squiggposting#idw op love#idk if i adequately explained it in the body of the post. but i really do feel some kind of way about the idea of like#being a good person isn't about just being static. always being the same person. just naturally being good and nice all teh time#but rather being a good person will cause you to be CHALLENGED and being a good person calls you to ACT#and you WILL make mistakes. there's never a situation in which you're all wise and always have the right solution or are infinitely patient#but goodness is something you can CHOOSE something you can BECOME and you can still have negative emotions and CHOOSE to be good#like being a good person is a continuous process of self improvement. you aren't just born a good person#and i'm not trying to tear down the notion of 'goodness' or say it doesn't exist#rather i'm trying to say that it's far more comforting to hear that you don't have to be The Best Person at all times#it's comforting to know that good people aren't just Effortlessly Good because they were Just Born That Way Naturally#there certainly are some people like that but most of us aren't like that. and i just like idw op for that reason#he shows that like. you can be a fucked up mentally ill guy who despairs and loses his temper and is basically suicidal#but you also still genuinely try to be hopeful and try to help others. like you are good because you Try To Be Good#and you Try To Hold Onto Your Principles bc giving up or becoming evil isn't an option for you#but also trying to be A Good Person drives you fucking crazy bc we live in a universe where that perfect good simply isn't possible#so the result is an optimus who's at once Noble Paragon and Unhinged bc he's unhinged as a result of trying to be a paragon

I just finished watching Fatbeard and I saw some ppl argue/justify Kyle encouraging Cartman to go to Somalia as like a "he just wants to get rid of him so it's fine and actual it's moral because he is doing it for the good of the town" thing.
Which I think is just an insanely funny thing to argue in my opinion, cuz like. The episode explicitly tells you that Kyle really wants this to happen so Cartman will die.
Like Kyle really has no effect on whether Cartman will or won't do something as we have been shown. If Cartman wants to do something and Kyle disagrees that will only bring him more joy. And if he agrees he's still gonna do it if he truly wants to. So whether Kyle remained silent or said anything didn't really make a difference. So having Kyle encourage him is used specifically as a way to showcase Kyle's personality, motivation and character.
The only argument you could possibly make by that point in the episode is that Kyle just wanted to get Cartman out of South Park.
But in his very next scene he is shown excited and giddily making sure that Cartman going off to Somalia is true. He would even like to take credit for it. Stan litteraly asks "You really think he'll die in Somalia?" To which he responds with "Oh for sure!", like what more confirmation do you need?
Kyle isn't responsible for Cartman going to Somalia. But that's not the point. The point is that Kyle wanted/had no moral issue over encouraging Cartman to go die and was excited at the prospect of it.
And this isn't like a "kyle is actualy a horrible person and I don't like him post". I frickin love Kyle. I'm just kinda over seeing people baby him. He has a little bit of psychotic in him, let him be, it makes him a fun character and you don't need to have a moral justification for everything he does.

Something something Junmo wearing Gicheol's suit and Taeho's watch. Something about Gicheol taking Junmo to his home, his room—a place only Taeho has been to before, while he wears another one of Gicheol's clothing.
(and just Taeho in general tbh *heart eyes*)
