it's so funny to me that caleb and veth really did just trade off the job of intensely pining for the other at like the halfway point of the campaign. like, imo, nott in the early days did not behave in any real romantic or even romance-adjacent ways toward him--I imagine it would be very hard to even think in that way when you hate what you look like so much, have such low self-esteem, and are actively lying about your entire past, including a secret husband. caleb, on the other hand, is kind of diving directly back into the sort of relationship he had with astrid and eadwulf. very close, very intimate, we-huddled-for-warmth-together-and-oops-it-led-to-something-else sort of thing. he is the one who expresses that he's fine with it if people think he and nott are romantically together when they're talking to keg. nott is the one who pushes back on that. he calls her his life partner. unknowingly, he compares his feelings for nott to nott's feelings for yeza. his behavior only really starts to change after he finds out about veth's husband because suddenly all of that other stuff is rendered inappropriate in retrospect. but even then he compliments her to yeza over dinner in the most awkward of ways, he admits to being jealous, he calls yeza "a lucky man" to have her, he stares at veth and yeza closed bedroom door for far too long, he creates an entire arcane tower with room for her family just so she'll stay with him. in general, his behavior is not, um, totally and completely platonic about it, you know?

like, veth's feelings for caleb are canonical and therefore indisputable in their existence, but caleb in the early days was not that dissimilar to how veth was acting near the end of the campaign. it really paints a picture of "right person, wrong time" in the way things just didn't line up for them. or, as veth would say: "in another world, maybe"

#i am actually thinking about this because my widobrave 2 poll had so many moments on it that caleb initiated #and i often see it remarked that people think widobrave is entirely one-sided and caleb only treats her as platonic or familial #which. my real answer is that it's just complicated and i don't think he'd ever admit to any romantic feelings being there #but i also. uh. i wouldn't call it platonic or familial. there is some holy fourth dimension that this relationship exists in istg #impossible to explain but it is NOT entirely platonic nor all that familial imo as it stands in canon #this is like. ONE piece of the meta I was trying to figure out how to phrase earlier today. bottom line of it was: #I don't think the caleb/veth romance is entirely one-sided but also it is so so complicated #their relationship changes SO many times. SO much. that's why it's so frustrating that fandom is stuck in episode 13 re: their dynamic #SO MUCH ABOUT THE DYNAMIC CHANGES AFTER EPISODE 13 #even sam reigel himself on talks said there was no reason their relationship wouldn't change/evolve after that #and it did change! it really really did! #widobrave #the mighty nein #caleb widogast #veth brenatto #critical role #inaugurating the new url with a widobrave post. as it should be

heyyyy

can I please have some more gen z and Billy and Stu?

btw tumblr says your my biggest fan lol

Sure

He saw the shirt in some homophobic twitter user's profile and thought it looked like something appropriate to wear to their walmart shoplifting trips. Needless to say Billy doesn't let him buy anything online anymore without permission first (also thank you for enjoying my obsession with these two silly little guys) ((also also ignore the blatant art block))

#I ALWAYS COME BACK #So the thing I was talking about resolved itself pretty quickly #and it was also relatively painless?? #and probably happened for the last time ever??????? #i'm so fucking happy istg #the most annoying stuilly artist is back in town #HOW DO I GET TUMBLR TO STOP PIXELATING MY ART THIS IS SO FRUSTRATING IM GONAN BITE SOMEBODY #latenightsundayblues art tag #latenightsundayblues ask tag

Thinking thoughts, I don't think I'll ever get over the fact that there are people in the fandom who purely hate maxwell and think that charlie is some helpless victim on the throne

Ah yes Maxwell Carter, free to be as evil as he pleases tied up by his wrists and ankles on his shadowed throne as a jaunty tune of ragtime loops on repeat

And Charlie who is so very helpless upon the throne she redesigned to fit both of her combined sides after freeing Wilson, shocking him and throwing him back into the Constant

(this post is dripping with sarcasm btw, please just open your eyes to understand that things aren't just black and white in the lore)

#rod vibes #dst #dst maxwell #dst charlie #side eyeing ya'll so hard rn istg #also so help me if I see anyone try to flip it instead there are NUANCES YOU GUYS ARE OVERLOOKING #my gosh you don't have to enjoy maxwell but open your eyes and understand he's not this vile man you think he is #and charlie isn't some helpless maiden in need of saving #anyways this is always on my brain so just doing my bit in posting my frustrations lol #yall can ignore this but just think about it a little bit pleaseeee

One year later, reminiscing about my experience with Pokemon Violet:

#felix rambles #pokemon sv #pokemon scarlet and violet #pokemon sv spoilers #like a friend of mine said: 'usually it's a great game with a rushed ending but SV is a great ending with a rushed game' #my first playthrough of this game was borderline disastrous #I was so frustrated I was genuinely about to quit the game for good #the ending rewired my brain #I'm glad I managed to finish it in the end #I am now replaying it at a slower pace to properly enjoy it (the graphics still suck I am never changing that opinion) #(it's unfinished AT BEST but I can still have fun) #(still it's not worth its price) #I am so bitter yet happy about this stupid game istg #but enough rambling in the tags #pokemon

[antianakin]

I feel like the best way to "fix" Padme in the Prequels isn't to have Anakin brainwashing her, but to just have her be morally corrupt from at least the start of AOTC. In TPM, she's a scared young Queen, she's trying so hard to be peaceful and diplomatic and it DOESN'T WORK and she has to turn to violence and war to save her own people. She's not who she used to be anymore.

So when you start up AOTC, Anakin makes his interest known sort-of accidentally and Padme is immediately intrigued. There's none of that "Oh Ani, you'll always be that little boy I knew from Tatooine" stuff, let her follow up on the "Wow you've grown" comment just a tad more, comment on how impressive he looks now, nearly a Knight himself! And in the packing scene, instead of calmly explaining that sometimes mentors see our flaws better than we'd like, have her agree that Obi-Wan's treatment sounds frustrating perhaps, she can relate it to her own struggles in the Senate with other politicians who just won't LISTEN TO HER. In response, Anakin says that at least this new mission means he'll be away from Obi-Wan and spending time with Padme alone which sounds so much more enjoyable. Padme asks him how much more enjoyable and, well, things can devolve from there. Fade to black or just a kiss and a promise to follow up on Naboo or something, doesn't matter.

And you can let Anakin question why she's doing it or something if you want, bring up that it should be forbidden for them to be together and that Padme is risking a lot by doing this with him. Give Padme a nice simple answer here. Something like "I learned when my planet was attacked that life can be so short and sometimes the best way forward is to act decisively. I know what I want, and I'm willing to take the risk, because this feels worth it to me, it feels right." Nothing too deep and it brings up a little sympathy from the last film.

At the lake scene in the rainbow dress, bring back the comment Padme made in that deleted scene from their arrival on Naboo where she mentions she had expected to have a family by now, but with everything going on in the Senate she isn't sure that'll ever happen. Instead of "I hate sand" (yes yes I know) let Anakin RELATE to Padme's musings on her desire for a family, mention how he'd always kind-of wanted a child of his own, how important family is to him and while the Jedi ARE a family, it's not the kind of family he knew and grew up with and sometimes he misses it.

Come back to her frustrations with the Senate during the meadow scene on Naboo, let her admit that sometimes she DOES wish she could just force them all to listen to her even though she knows that that would lead to more problems than it would fix, so when she brushes off Anakin's dictatorship comment as a joke, it makes a LOT more sense that she would think that way.

And then for a more modern fix-it, have Anakin NOT murder all of the Tuskens, just the warriors, but he admits that he nearly did kill them all, that he wanted to, and a part of him still wants to return to the village and finish what he started even if it's not the Jedi way. It's still violent, and still a horrifying red flag, but this allows Padme to decides that Anakin's feelings are more important than the lives he took (and almost took). It's less out of character because she's been stupid for him from literally the start, they've been probably fucking since they got to Naboo, she's already compromising on her own morals for him, why not do it again?

Is this my ideal Padme? No. My ideal Padme is much more complex than this, but that Padme cannot exist in the story they were telling in the Prequels, so the best way to have Padme exist more easily in the Prequels without completely changing the story for her is to just simplify her down a lot.

#padme amidala #star wars #attack of the clones #anidala #anakin's a messy melodramatic bitch who makes spur of the moment impulse choices based on what he wants right then and there #padme should want him specifically because that's EXACTLY how she operates now too #also istg give them SOMETHING TO BOND OVER #frustrations so great it leads to a rage almost too big to contain #a desire for a typical family that conflicts with their chosen duty #LITERALLY ANYTHING MEANINGFUL
