I just love that Gale's romance scenes are like "How to Land the Partner of Your Dreams while Honoring Your Autistic Hyperfixations: Parts 1-3. By: Gale 'of Waterdeep' Dekarios".

I’ve seen a few people argue that sydney sweeney’s popularity with straight men rn is a bellwether for the “age of the butt” being over. boobs are so back, etc. I mean, maybe? but i think there are two other things going on with her specifically.

her appearance, non-boob wise, has a very 90s-early 00s feel. and i don’t know what the polite way to say this is but… she doesn’t look like 14 people died mining the silicone that’s in her face, is the blunt way of saying it. she has frown lines. her eyes are asymmetrical. I’m not insulting her – this is good. that and her demeanor in interviews etc comes off as warm, bubbly, bordering on ditzy tbh but I’m not here to judge. when you put those two things together, you get “hot but approachable”.

so what do I mean? I think it’s probably also indicative that we’ve collectively burnt out on Instagram face. heavily filtered and heavily augmented is out! the people have spoken, and they demand sydney sweeney.

and even looping this back around to the boobs – half of the appeal to her simps is that she doesn’t have implants. pay attention!

#tbh it’s debatable how on board the median straight man was with the IG baddie look in the first place #because I guess in my own experience I feel like a lot of men read this look as an indicator of ‘high maintenance and vapid’ #even if they don’t explicitly state it in those terms #whether they’re right to read it this way is an entirely separate question #but look. 31 people I follow on IG are following Kylie Jenner. out of those only 2 of them are straight men #these influencers are the ladies’ version of ‘look at this massive thing at the gym I can lift’ #someone was bound to pop that bubble eventually. sydney is just in the public eye at the right time to be the one to do it

pallas in book one is definitely at it-cannot-possibly-get-worse-than-this ABSOLUTE rock bottom but god. there is such a specific flavour to their despair in book two that only happens because of the realization they have at the end of lay me down. like. how do you move on after admitting that everything you believed in was a lie. how do you live with what you’ve done (with what has been done to you). is it possible to pull yourself up out of the pit you’ve dug. what do you do if it isn’t. what do you do if it IS. and once you look at the damage how do you stop looking. past the first layer of hurt there’s just more and more hurt and you were used by the one person who was supposed to keep you safe to cause even MORE pain and no matter how deep you go none of it means anything! it never meant anything at all!! motherfucker your worst sin is that you have destroyed and betrayed yourself for NOTHING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

#pallas’s whole arc in the first book is getting to the point where they go ‘maybe i? feel bad about all this?? actually???’ #i cannot overstate enough that it takes an entire book to get them to that point lmao #and then it’s like. newsflash buddy now you’ve gotta DEAL with that #it really is the mental equivalent of getting into a hot bath of after being out in the cold for a whole day #and the interesting thing about pallas in the first book and their status as a villian and like. their eventual ‘oh SHIT’ moment #is that pallas doesn’t need to realize that they’re a bad person doing bad things #pallas is VERY aware that they are a bad person doing bad things #it’s actually more about realizing the harm that’s been done to them? like as a human being?? #bc they very much have the attitude of ‘well of course i’m doing bad things i was born as an inherently evil person there’s nothing else #i’m capable of doing the most i can hope for is that someone points me in the right direction and i’ll be able to do the hard things #that other people cannot (and SHOULD NOT) do’ #so THATS the mindset that needs to be unlearned before they can start moving forward? if that makes sense? #less ‘shit are we the baddies?’ and more ‘shit have i been horrifically abused?’ #but then after that realization all the blood they’ve spilled is still there. and they should never have had to do that. no one should ever #have to do that. but they did and now they’re starting to see the full extent of what that means #and they have to find a way to live with it. #and it’s absolutely DEVASTATING. #wip: ghost story #pallas #i’ve been working on the book two outline. if you couldn’t tell. head in absolute hands rn.

I’ve had a few people now recognize me from Overwatch when I commented on their BG3 fics & it’s so funny because this is the first fandom since then where I’ve gotten that villainous-found-family-who-are-still-evil high I got from writing Team Talon… anyway if we have circled back into each other’s fandom orbit I am overjoyed :’)

#none of my other fandoms have really had baddies that hang out with each other? that or their villains aren’t esp interesting period #eramis is probably the closest & they’re sort of redeeming her? #sevika in arcane s2 is promising #anyway. love durge gort and orin having truly the worst brunch of their lives #orig

Listened to someone’s hot take on Boss Battles in video games, and how they’re antiquated, and should be rid of, and ya know what…

#i feel like it should ultimately be a choice #but one reason why i love Starfield and Fo4 so much is there aren’t technically boss fights #they’re just more difficult baddies and you can typically avoid them

I’m thinking more about the “cartoon show about the Ancient descendants starring Princess Cookie” thing I offhandedly mentioned and I just wanted to share some ideas concerning it

In my head, it’s probably closest to the She Ra reboot, but I’m not sure how much since it’s been a few years since I’ve seen it. But the main character is less Adora and far more so Glimmer. And also we don’t exactly have a big cast of royals to work with

So there’s Princess as our main character and Knight as her bodyguard/love interest/best friend (at the very least Knight starts with a crush on her, whether that gets reciprocated or changes later on is up to you I suppose). She lives in the Hollyberry Kingdom with her parents and an absent adventurous grandmother(I mean absent like she is in the game, not so much she’s a deadbeat. Just imagine this setup like the game)

Custard III is pretty much the team baby and is basically like a younger brother to Princess. The plot probably starts with Princess and Knight meeting him and learning he’s the descendant of Pure Vanilla Cookie, king of the long lost Vanilla Kingdom. Not sure what the plot would entail but this seems like the best starting off point for a show. Other than that, Custard III probably lives in the Hollyberry castle with Princess, since he has nowhere else to go

As for Dark Choco, well it depends whether you want him as part of the main supporting cast or not. If he’s part of the hero group, I’d say make him his Young Prince version, and he’s the oldest member of the group and by proxy most experienced, but he still has things to learn. He’s a family friend and already part of the group at the start. Not sure why he’s a frequent cast member but whatever. He’d be the older brother type and probably the group’s main/best fighter. Also he has issues with his father that would probably get worked through throughout the show

If we’re going with him being like he is in current day, then he starts out as part of the antagonist group, but he eventually leaves and gets his redemption arc, possibly via the power of Princess’s trust and friendship, eventually becoming part of the group but more as an older mentor/uncle figure

Though I’ll be honest, with the first scenario I have this neat idea of Dark Choco losing his eye in this series, where instead of how he does in canon, he loses his eye defending his friends, in some sort of scenario similar to the prom night rescue in She Ra (fun fact: this scenario of the prom night rescue but with Cookie Run characters is where this whole idea started). He then has a character arc about his new loss of an eye but he pulls through it and ends up seeing his injury as a symbol of his loyalty to his friends.

He might also have a slight corruption arc in this series with the Strawberry Jam Sword, but it doesn’t have nearly the same ramifications as canon as the team figures out what’s going on pretty quickly, if not immediately (in that he’s not in control), and eventually help free him from this. He probably also doesn’t join the villains in this scenario, at least not while he’s in control, and if he did it’d be after a very long time skip where he’s basically been broken, which I don’t imagine happening

I admit, this first scenario is the one I like more, I just put the second one since it’s the one closer to actual canon

We don’t really have any more “Ancient descendants” to work with (well there are more, I mean more in descendants from other Kingdoms), but they’ll get added once they show up I guess. I mean I know there’s theories for other characters, but since nothing’s currently confirmed for them, I won’t be using them as main characters

Now for Tiger Lily. So she’d show up occasionally throughout the story as a mysterious character, saving the group on occasion but never go back with them, disappearing back into the wild. Or heck, maybe she only shows up when Princess is alone, so nobody else knows who she is, though maybe the others would meet her later. There’d be hints to Tiger Lily and Princess’s true relation, like Jungleberry and references to Princess once having a twin, as well as possibly an episode featuring Tiger Lily and her wondering what this connection she feels towards Princess is, and simultaneously vice versa with Princess, but their true connection wouldn’t be revealed until like, at least a Season 2 (wait no, don’t these sorts of reveals happen at the end of Season 1s? Eh whatever). But there’d probably be an arc much later on of her trying to integrate into normal society and her trying to connect with her family she’s never known. Princess would be the easiest since they already know each other, but her parents are another story

Oh right, I should also mention, since this is in the form of a kid’s cartoon, all the main characters are children/teens. Staring off the show, Princess/Tiger Lily/Knight are around 14, Custard III is somewhere between 7-9, and Dark Choco is around 17-18, in the scenario where he’s part of the supporting cast the whole way through

Clotted Cream and the Creme Republic might show up as a late addition as well, never being made part of the group but more like a guest character that pops in from time to time. Though we might spend more time with him in an introductory arc with the Creme Republic and this being where Custard III’s family is from, though nobody knows until the name Custard is mentioned. Though in the end, Custard III chooses to stay with Princess and friends

The main antagonists would probably be Dark Enchantress and the Cookies of Darkness, and the Ancients would also be featured characters, with Hollyberry eventually appearing again, or perhaps her first showing up as a normal huntress but later being revealed to have been Hollyberry watching the kingdom from the shadows. But the Ancient stuff would really only happen during Plot Time, as I like to call it

And uh yeah, think that’s about it, just thoughts I had. Tempted to make this an au, but I don’t know how considering the characters aren’t different in design or anything and there’s not too much different from canon in a vacuum, it’s just that the story is being told in a different format and with different main characters. It’s more a bunch of neat ideas I like

Also not sure what role the dragons would play. I mean I feel like they should play some role, at least Pitaya, but we already have a group of antagonists and they don’t really fit in with them

#cookie run #cookie run kingdom #princess cookie #knight cookie #custard cookie iii #dark choco cookie #tiger lily cookie #royal berry cookie #jungleberry cookie #I realize they aren’t really mentioned but I suppose they’re relevant? #hollyberry cookie #cookie run au #sort of #random stuff #speaking of the rescue mission in this scenario Dark Choco was the one kidnapped bc the baddies think he could be useful #(they caught him via sneak attack) #he also ends up the one most beaten up by far at the end of it due to him resisting their methods and him trying to save his friends #Custard iii tries to help but his healing magic is pretty limited so while it helps a little he still has serious injuries #this would also be the first time we see Dark Cacao break character and see him legitimately terrified for his son’s safety #showing the characters (and I suppose the audience) that he’s not as cold hearted and distant as he seems #just that he has trouble expressing himself

I’m sorry to say it babes but tvd Elijah was the best. he was sexy, he was scary, and he was mysterious. sir was serving every episode.

#the originals were interesting and the show was good #but when you make a powerful and mysterious immortal baddie the main character #you have to make them less scary and mysterious #and that can make them lame #the original family were scarier when they were like old gods who showed up with a vengeance #now they’re the Kardashians #also having the scoping gang beat them was defo a blow #elijah mikaelson #klaus mikaelson #niklaus mikaelson #but yeah when Elijah showed up and he was gentlemanly and he let people get nervous and indulged them by playing along #he always came across like he was listening to a child #amused and indulging and patronising #idk but it was good #Elijah was more scary than klaus #it always happens in shows and as much as I love the character development I still hate it #they have to make the villains bigger #and interesting side characters have to get developed #the mikaelsons #tvd #tvdu #the originals #to #the vampire diaries
