Gale's Analysis: 5 things the movie did better and Vice Versa: Miraculous version.

So for this little post I will be writing things I would list that the Miraculous Movie did better for me than the show did and vice versa.

I think both medias have flaws but both also give us something great and I think both should be appreciated.

Rules:

I wont be mentioning ANYTHING asthetic (Thats a budget thing and I wont penalize the show for not having the budget the movie does) These are purely writing choices and scene inclusions.

2. These choices doesnt always mean that the show or Movie handled something badly, it just means I prefer how they were handled. by the Respective media.

3. I will only be including things that are covered in both the film and movie.

4. I would love to hear what you guys preferred and your opinions

I will start off with the Movie and alternate.

(Spoilers if you havent seen the movie or the season 5 finale of the show)

5. Movie: Using Criminals as Akumatized villains

Its such a simple idea, as the Akuma often use the negative emotions of the individuals, and thats what I loved about the movie. Of course if the logic is the more negative the emotions the more powerful, why not recruit the people who let their lives get ruined by their negative impulses.

It ups the danger factor and allows for more cartoonish violence. They get defeated and then get sent to jail. Maybe it makes Akuma seem simpler, but I like it and it results in a villain song that slaps.

5. Show: The way the Heroes were chosen

While on one hand I enjoyed the Kwami picking their chosen in the movie. I actually like how Fu tested the ones in Origins. Both Marinette and Adrien demonstrated their kind hearted and caring natures before getting the miraculous. In the movie we do see Marinette save Fu though unrelated to being chosen, which was great but we dont see Adrien ever do that before becoming Chat noir. And I feel that loses something in the process.

4. Movie: Powers: Stronger together (Not just the song)

The cat and Ladybug miraculous get more powerful when used together. That is something I have wanted since the beginning of the series. It lets both miraculous stand out from the other miraculous and shows why having these two together is such a big deal. This movie does drill it into the viewers head, but its such a cool concept and it is something I wish was in the show.

4. Show: Powers: Lucky Charm

I miss when Ladybug summons an object to help defeat the villain. i know in the movie they go a bit different with how the powers work, but I miss the random items that would then be utilized in order to help them best the bad guys. Marinette is still her clever self when she wants to be in the movie... but it isnt as clear and would have elevated the movie.

3. Movie: Tikki

I think Tikki f***ing kills it in this movie. Her energy, curiosity, her flair. HER RAP! Tikki is exactly what I picture when I see a Kwami of Creation. She was perfect for getting Marinette's butt in gear and being the instigator. She is Marinette's Motivator not her conscience. Tikki has been doing this for Eons and she knows what to do.

3. Show: Plagg

By a MASSIVE Margin, Plagg is much better portrayed in the show. His bond with Adrien is much more pronounced, his personality isnt reduced to being lazy and making Fart jokes. Plagg in the movie does give advice, but Show Plagg has a much more innate care for Adrien even early on. Plagg's bond with Adrien in the show is one of the best things about it.

2. Movie: Ladynoir

Oh I can hear a TON of anger forming from seeing this on my list. But let me explain. I like the fact that they didnt get along right away and grew to like eachother. In the show it makes sense to have them more in sync off the jump, but in the movie it shows how their powers are LINKED to them being closer. So the development is great. And while the show has the appeal of the lovesquare and identities being a secret. The Movie doesnt have that limitation, they are doing the secret identities for their own benefit. Chat noir gets to be more open with Ladybug. And Stronger together as a duet f***ing slaps. Now in the show there are some ladynoir moments that are amazing "Us against the world." Fantastic. And i would argue the show has highs the movies never reached, BUT The problem is though, in the show, that basically gets tossed to the side so often its hard to appreciate it and the lows are more present. In the movie, it is able to keep that basis steady. Plus this movie was made for Ladynoir, lets face it.

2. Show: Marinette and Adrien (As Characters)

I think it is obvious to say that the show has a lot more time to flesh out Marinette and Adrien. Now I do enjoy their movie incarnations, but seeing How Marinette developed her confidence overtime and her reasons for being how she is, as well as Adrien wanting more love and acceptance. The movie never really gets to show how kind and caring both of them are. Something the show gets to demonstrate. Though the flaws are there, it is a deeper ocean to explore. Movie Marinette and Movie Adrien are wonderful, but when it comes to the core, the originals shine brighter.

1. Show: Adrinette (As well as Ladrien and Marichat)

Yes I am swapping back to the show before the movie. I dont care its my list. Adrien and Marinette are f***ing adorable. The umbrella scene is still one of my favorite moments in the series, and seeing how the two fall in love is wonderful. Its a slow burn and its usually pretty damn good. Granted the love rival bump was stupid, but hey not everything is perfect. Also the Ladrien (while not much as much as the other sides) exists in the show and gets a lot of mileage. And Marichat, do I even have to explain? Most of you marichat stans are still watching Elation. The show handles the core aspect that the viewers WANT to see. The slow burn romance. That is where its at. And while the movie does show Adrien and Marinette having some cute encounters, some stuff was cut and it just cant hold a candle to the adrinette in the show.

Its the beauty and love that has me still holding onto the show... no matter the writing choices it has taken. And trust me when I say MY LOVE for the lovesquare has been tested more than Heracles.

1. Movie: Gabriel Agreste

If someone told me I would ever have sympathy for Gabriel Agreste. I would looked them in the eyes and LAUGHED at them. But somehow this movie did what the show failed to do. They turned this neglectful asshole into my favorite part of the movie. The movie makes me understand WHY he is so absent with Adrien, yet still show how much he loves his son. He is a widower lost in grief filled with Survivor's guilt. He is so lost and desperate to bring her back that he was willing to sacrifice his own heart to get her back... but then, he sees his son, damaged by his own hands. He sees the monster he became and it broke him. He fell down and realized he had done something inexcusable in his mind. He let his loss hurt his little boy.

The movie doesnt get as much time as the show to flesh out Gabriel, but sweet kwami does the movie show more than enough. We see his intial reluctance, we see his grief win over and then his obsession and hatred growing. We see him get disheveled and at the brink yet still checking on his son. We see him realize how far gone he is and just let the darkness take control, and finally we see the revelation! Him waking up to the truth, what he did to his son. He breaks down, he confesses. THIS is a Gabriel that you understand how he fell. This Gabriel was shown to the Audience. But you know what the best part is? He isnt shown as a hero, Paris knows he became a villain. He does get to hug his son and apologize, but he acknowledges his wrongs.

The show did have a chance to do that (I would say season 2 was their best bet) But sadly they tossed that out and the ending of the Agreste arc (as far as we know because everyone says its not the end. But its the end.) Was not what I call good.

So when it comes down to it, Gabriel Agreste became the Villain once dreamed he would be in this movie.

Darksiders: Death

In this post, I am starting my series of analyzing the Four Horsemen from the Darksiders series. I will be pulling from the games and Abomination Vault (canon debates aside, I thinking the book is well written and a bit more of a view into Death as a person). I will reference real world psychology terms and try my best to avoid using outdated terminology.

Trigger Warnings: references to abuse, manipulation, gore and body horror, mentions of incest, sexual assault

So, to discuss Death, we must first establish a baseline for who he is.

Death was a Firstborn Nephalim, said to be the most violent and powerful of their kind, having so close a relationship to their angel and demon ancestry. In fact, it could be argued Death and Absalom were the strongest.

It seems to be also, Death and Absalom were close, close enough that Death felt immense regret over the older man's demise, so it may be implied that Absalom had a hand in bringing up his fellow Firsts.

In Death we can see the cruelty that so clearly marks all Firstborns.

After conquering their first world, the home of the Ravaiim, Death suggested he and his brothers craft their own weapons using the skills of the Ravaiim.

The Ravaiim were akin to cousins of the Makers, but among the oldest Old Ones. A race so old that "the line between craftsman and crafter was blurred". The Ravaiim used flesh to craft their weapons and items, imbuing them with power too.

Death, being the closest thing his kin had to a crafter, set to work using the technique himself... With the Ravaiim themselves as parts.

Thus were born the Grand Abominations, weapons so vile that eventually even the cruel Nephalim found it necessary to lock them away. These world ending creations are/were alive in a way; they are semi-sentient, at least enough to know what was done to create them. Their creation poisoned the Ravaiim homeland and created a stinking place so grotesque, even Hell was considered nicer. The Abominations, due to their awareness of what was done to them, loathe all of Creation and people often feel uneasy around them. An undisciplined mind may go mad wielding one, purely from the hatred they possess.

These things were Death's idea, made under his instruction. This, along with the dozens of genocides he partook in over centuries, is enough to paint a starting point of who this man is and how far he is willing to go for self benefit.

Now, to contextualize his behavior, I believe it'll help us to use some psychology terminology. Death, in our terms, shows signs of antisocial personality disorder (ASPD). He shows a clear disregard for the safety of himself and others, a disregard for others feelings, and acts impulsively. He's prone to being manipulative, a liar, and seems prone to risk taking behaviors.

NOTE: This was once called sociopathy/psychopathy. THESE TERMS ARE OUTDATED AND NOT OFFICIAL DIAGNOSTIC TERMS. To many they may be considered offensive. People with ASPD do still experience emotions, but perhaps not the full range of emotions, a common one being empathy. This can result in cruel behavior, especially in children and teens, however therapy can be very helpful to individuals suffering from this condition. My reference here is not to diagnose this character, but to draw comparison and give an easier starting point into dissecting his personality and behavior. Do not go and demonize the people with ASPD over a post over a fictional character. I am simply trying to make this discussion simpler.

Now to start, I do fully believe Death is capable of genuine compassion and kindness, as shown in interactions he has with the Makers in particular. Its shown he experiences familial love with his reactions to Absalom's demise, and to War's imprisonment. It may also be seen in a small bit of Darksiders 3 with Fury's Nephilim's Respite flask, as he saw her penchant for trouble and chose to help make sure she didn't die from her own hubris.

However, despite his care for others, Death is not above using his own family for personal gains, even going so far as to nearly killing War for a plan of his. And he ends up not telling War the truth, leaving War believing he nearly died of his own failure, not because of Death's selfishness.

And ultimately, Death is selfish.

Death lies to people for his own benefit if he can get away with it. He lies through his teeth, or at minimum omits the truth. He keeps secrets because he is distrustful of others, even his fellow Horsemen. He also seems to view everyone else as idiots, insulting them and being needlessly mean.

I think maybe the reason he ends up helping the Makers so much is because they bite back. They banter with him and they're not afraid of him. They're there to help as long as he helps them. He's surprisingly honest with them too, telling him exactly what his intentions are. I think its safe to say that Death actually respects them to an extent, though Karn gets the brunt of his comments.

Back to his secrets, one of his biggest lies/secrets, in my opinion, is the Nephilim phylactery.

I don't think he hid the Nephilim souls out of guilt, not wholly. I fully believe he hid them with The Crowfather so he could find a way to bring them back one day. I think this because of his pause at the Well. He has the choice to bring them back and the only reason he doesn't is because of War. Even Lilith was convinced that he'd choose his dead kin over War, but he doesn't.

And War us truly where Death's snarky, uncaring half act breaks.

I'd say his choice to run off to gods know where to erase the crime War allegedly committed was extremely impulsive. Which, allow me to restate, HE WANTED TO UNDO A MASS EXTINCTION TO SAVE WAR FROM PUNISHMENT. He dove headfirst into his quest with zero regard for what was going to happen to himself. He jumps into the Well of Souls, sacrificing himself to bring back humanity and liberate his brother.

And what is it about War that makes Death so emotional?

We don't have a canon answer so far, but I do have to wonder at just how close they are.

I do possess a theory or two.

Theory One: Death is mildly obsessed with War as War is the youngest and last of the new Nephilim. War is a remnant of the last generation of their people and Death is keen on preserving his people in one fashion or another. War is very likely the first if them to speak against the violence of their people. War is violent himself, but not necessarily without cause, so I absolutely believe he spoke up first.

Two: Death views War as an innocent and naive boy. War is much, much more law oriented than the others, his angelic heritage shaping much of his views in seems. And to Death, perhaps, this is a sign of naivety and lack of experience. A baby to be shielded.

Three: Death raised War and sees him in a more parental manner. We don't know what raising kids was like for Nephilim, but I wouldn't be too surprised of it was a "everyone raises the young" over "parents raise their own". If that was the case, perhaps Death ended up watching War growing up more than he had other young Nephilim. That's not to say their " parent-child" bond would be healthy, clearly, but it would make sense as to why Death outright says he'd do anything to save War, and why he goes on a huge quest to revive humanity to save War. Why he ultimately sacrifices himself in the end too.

I do think that despite being incredibly self serving, selfish and arrogant, Death is ultimately self loathing. He hides his true thoughts under a thin veil of snark and dry humor, under anger and sharp words. In the book, he claims he never regrets his choices, only the execution, but I don't believe that. I do think he regrets creating the Abominations, not because of them necessarily, but because HE created something so vile.

I think he regrets killing the Nephilim because they were his kin and he was someone they all looked up to. Absalom trusted him and respected him. And he killed all of them because his beliefs had started to change.

And I firmly believe his mask isn't one of accessory. I think its a manifestation in a way of hiding from everyone.

After becoming Horsemen, Death runs away. Death hides from his brothers for ages before coming back to them in Abomination Vault.

He hides his feelings of self hate, guilt, and even affection behind snark, sarcasm, and cruelty. If he pushes others away, he needn't face the pain of their loss like he did with Absalom. But again... War is different. Before his descent into the Well, Death removes his mask.

The removal of his mask does seem to be a willingness to face forward and face the world. To face his future. I believe this for the fact that that room was the place where he metaphorically and literally faced his past, his demons. He finally let go of the Nephilim and his past with them. He let go of Absalom.

The Well is also where we seem him at his most vulnerable.

He defeats and lets go of Absalom, then goes to make his choice. Then he pauses and talks about getting to that point and still not knowing what to do. He sounds tired, broken, and like he's smiling to hold back emotions. The Crowfather consoles and councils him, and then Death makes him choice to help War by sacrificing himself and the Nephilim.

And taking off his mask is the most vulnerable he could be. He discards his physical mask, and likely in doing so its symbolic if him ridding himself of the metaphorical one.

Another character worth mentioning when discussing Death is Lilith.

Lilith, for context, is the "mother" if the Nephilim. She created Absalom first, but for all intents and purposes, she can be considered Death's mother.

Now, her tone when talking to him, in both game and book, is unusually... Flirty. And his reaction to her is visceral. He recoils and is tense, seemingly disgusted by her.

(Image Credit to @another-darksiders-blog )

These pages aren't exactly overt in what happened, but its very, very heavily implied that Lilith took advantage of Death and slept with him. Given his reactions to her, I dint exactly think he was very willing in these... Acts.

And further more, Lilith was actually counting on Death to resurrect and choose the Nephilim at the Well, as if he were the same Death she once knew, as if he hadn't changed. So I would be very, very unsurprised if she had sexually assaulted Death in some manner and abused him in other ways.

Overall it seems as if Death has had awful life experiences and copes by pushing others away and being angry. He's sarcastic and tends to not respond when called out (ie. Eideard asking "Isn't that what frightens you" when Death makes a snide joke about not having a soul).

In short, Death isn't a good person. He is a man shaped by horror and brutality and he struggles to adapt to new thinking, and struggles with emotion. However, I do think by the end of 2, he's changed for the better.

[4me4you]

4me4you features the artist Santiago Parra- ‘Spark of Fire’.

Artist: Santiago Parra

Recently, 4me4you had the privilege of immersing ourselves in the vibrant atmosphere of JD Malat Gallery, where the spotlight shone on the remarkable artist Santiago Parra.

Entitled "Spark of Fire," the exhibition serves as a testament to Parra's evolving artistic journey, presenting a captivating array of monochromatic paintings alongside his foray into a novel mode of expression.

Parra, driven by a desire to encapsulate intuition, emotion, and raw feeling within his art, eschews rationality in favour of a deeply instinctual approach. Each brushstroke, unfettered by conscious thought, breathes life into the canvas, inviting viewers to delve into a world shaped by pure creative impulse.

In the hands of an artist, ostensibly lifeless objects—a can of paint, a blank canvas, a paintbrush—spring to life, converging harmoniously to compose captivating works of art. The exhibition's title, "Spark of Fire," draws a poignant parallel to mythological narratives, evoking the transformative power of energy in awakening inert matter. Just as Prometheus breathed life into clay sculptures and bestowed upon humanity the divine gift of fire, Parra infuses his compositions with a vitality that transcends their material origins.

Within the confines of "Spark of Fire," each painting serves as a vessel for the retelling of primordial tales, inviting viewers to traverse landscapes imbued with the ebb and flow of nature's forces. From the tumultuous depths of the ocean to the dynamic interplay of form and movement, Parra's works encapsulate the essence of creation's genesis.

With an uninhibited flourish, Parra unleashes a torrent of creative energy onto vast canvases, his technique ranging from cascading torrents of paint to frenetic, calligraphic brushstrokes. The resulting series stands as a testament to the artist's boundless creativity and unrestrained expression, inviting viewers to embark on a journey of discovery through the boundless realm of artistic possibility.

Our Complete List Of Cat Pokemon

New Post has been published on https://petnews2day.com/pet-news/cat-news/our-complete-list-of-cat-pokemon/

Our Complete List Of Cat Pokemon

Pokémon is a series fueled by innovation and incredible partners with whom you go on a journey and develop close emotional connections. Fans widely adore the games worldwide, some of the Pokémon in the games were purely created through imagination, and real-world animals inspired the others. You can see many examples of Pokémon species inspired by real-world animals or objects. Still, today we will be focusing on one of my favorite types, cat pokemon.

Whether lions, Tigers, Panthers, or domesticated cats, these Pokémon are loved and adored by everyone. Here I will discuss every cat Pokemon introduced in the series. This might change with the release of Pokémon Scarlet and Violet, so we will try our best to keep you updated.

Do note that I will not include mega evolutions and Gigantimax forms in the list. Still, I will talk about a few Pokémon that could have made it on the list, but I chose not to for various reasons.

Now Read: All 9 Generations of Pokemon Starters (2022)

List of All Cat Pokemon

1.       Meowth

·         Number:          52

·         Type:                 Normal

·         Species:           Scratch Cat Pokemon

Meowth has been a staple character of the Pokémon anime for a long time, appearing as the mascot of Team Rocket (Jessie and James) from the anime. He rose to fame by being the only Pokémon who could speak a human language, unlike psychic Pokémon who used their thoughts to communicate. This loveable cat was based on the Japanese good luck charm. This Pokémon was featured in the first generation making it one of the original, memorable creations. Sadly it was never that cool in the games, and the only unique move it knew was Payday.

Meowth Variants

Alolan Meowth

·         Type: Dark

Meowth is a very versatile Pokémon. When in Alola, it spent a lot of time with Royalty, so it became accustomed to luxury. Alolan Meowth is selfish, impulsive, and fickle; many people adore giving it attention which it loves. It can also be seen in junkyards fighting against Murkrow for shiny objects they would both like.

Galarian Meowth

·         Type: Steel

Traveling the seas and living with strong sea-faring adventurers, this Meowth has parts of its body turned into iron. It has become more savage and strong than its other variants; the black coin on its head signifies its strength. The darker coins are stronger, which determines Meowth’s strength and respect among its type.

2.       Persian

·         Number:          53

·         Type:                 Normal

·         Specie:             Classy Cat Pokemon

Famous for being Giovanni’s pet Pokémon, this elegant cat’s defining feature is the gem on its forehead. I bet everyone who has seen the anime thinks this Pokémon is evil. Still, it is a fairly competent and cool normal-type Pokémon that’s quick on its feet.

Variants

Alolan Persian

·         Type: Dark

It has a violent temperament and sharp claws; the round face and smooth coat are softer than most high-class velvet. Even though it has a cute face, it is ferocious. It tortures its prey rather than finishing them off. The bigger and rounder the face, the more beautiful it is considered.

Perrserker

·         Type:   Steel

Based on the tough Vikings, it is large, burly and what appears to be an iron helmet is actually its very hardened hair. Its claws have become daggers, and it lives for the thrill of intense battles.

3.       Espeon

·         Number:          196

·         Type:                 Psychic

·         Specie:             Sun Pokémon

Introduced in generation 2, Espeon became the most popular Eeveelution for a while when the day and night system was introduced. Espeon unleashes psychic power from its forehead. With its arcane power, it can read people’s thoughts and also predict the weather.

4.       Umbreon

·         Number:          197

·         Type:                 Dark

·         Specie:             Moonlight Pokémon

One of the evolutions of Eevee is undisputed to be a cat-type Pokémon. Umbreon secretes poisonous sweat, which it sprays on its opponents; it bathes in the moonlight and tries to capture its prey while lurking in the darkness.

5.       Raikou

·         Number:          243

·         Type:                 Electric

·         Specie:             Thunder Pokémon

It is one part of the legendary beast trio that was with Ho-Oh in the Burned Tower who revived them. There are many arguments among the fans, some calling them the legendary dogs, but between the three, Raikou is surely based on a Saber Tooth. It can shoot thunderbolts from rainclouds that are with him on his back.

6.       Entei

·         Number:          244

·         Type:                 Fire

·         Specie:             Volcano Pokémon

Another part of the legendary trio, this Pokémon, is based on a lion. These Legendary Beasts were initially Eeveelutions that passed in the burned tower incident and were later revived by Ho-Oh. Enter is legendary Pokémon with a strong roar; whenever it does, a volcano erupts somewhere across the globe.

7.       Skitty

·         Number:          300

·         Type:                 Normal

·         Specie:             Kitten Pokémon

An extremely adorable Pokémon that many would adore keeping as a pet, Skitty is a cat Pokemon to have. This normal type Pokémon is a ball of happiness and likes to chase around moving things and its tail. It keeps chasing its tail until it gets dizzy. It’s always smiling and is more of a luxurious pet than a battler, even though it can do both.

8.       Delcatty

·         Number:          301

·         Type:                 Normal

·         Specie:             Prim Pokémon

The evolution of Skitty, Delcatty is a more fashionable and elegant version of Skitty. Its stats and skills are nothing to write about, and Delcatty isn’t the best in a fight. Still, this elegantly fashionable Pokémon is extremely popular among trainers, especially its sublime fur.

9.       Zangoose

·         Number:          335

·         Type:                 Normal

·         Specie:             Cat Ferret Pokémon

Reminding me of a mongoose, initially, I never thought that this Pokémon would be from the cat family, but in its specie, it is listed as such. Another generation 3 normal-type Pokémon that seems like it can rip anything apart. Usually, it stays on all fours but does stand on its hind legs, ready to attack with its claws if angered. It has had a bitter rivalry against Seviper; the rivalry dates back several generations, so much so that its hatred is etched into every cell of Zangoose’s body. 

10.   Shinx

·         Number:          403

·         Type:                 Electric

·         Specie:             Flash Pokémon

This cute little Pokémon is loosely based on a Lynx’s cub; at least, that’s how we assess it. Shinx is one of the more iconic Pokémon in the Sinnoh region (I still prefer Electavire). It generates electricity by contracting its muscles, so be careful if it’s trembling. All of its fur dazzles when it senses danger, and the electricity makes its fur glow; with all that firepower in one cute being, you have to be patient to tame this Pokémon.

11.   Luxio

·         Number:          404

·         Type:                 Normal

·         Specie:             Prim Pokémon

A more grown version of Shinx that starts resembling a lion, this Pokémon can join its tail with others of its kind to increase its electricity output. Luxio always prepares for battle with its claws that are shocking enough to make its opponents faint. It travels in small packs and communicates with electrical pulses; Luxio is elegant and gracious. They even share the spoils of their hunt with others from their pack.

12.   Luxray

·         Number:          405

·         Type:                 Normal

·         Specie:             Prim Pokémon

This cool Pokémon is a mixture of lions and lynxes, even though it doesn’t do well in competitive competitions; Luxray is a cool Pokémon to have. They can see through solid objects when their eyes shimmer with gold, and it’s because it uses electricity as energy. It needs to sleep a lot to store electric power.

13.   Glameow

·         Number:          431

·         Type:                 Normal

·         Specie:             Catty Pokémon

Another normal type Pokémon that is glamorous; it loves being taken care of and resembles Alolan Meowth in many ways. It’s a very fickle Pokémon with a sharp glare; if displeased with anyone, it uses its sharp hidden claws to cut them and purrs when it feels affectionate. It bewitches humans with its mesmerizing gaze and by rotating its helical tail. The joke about this Pokémon is its evolution, and its pre-evolution form is a fancy Pokémon. Still, when this cat evolves, it’s pretty unexpected.

14.   Purugly

·         Number:          431

·         Type:                 Normal

·         Specie:             Tiger Cat Pokemon

The Pokémon turns into a big stocky cat that uses its build to reduce the damage done to it. As many would say, the play or insult put into its name doesn’t do any favors, but I believe it’s still an excellent addition to the roster. It’s brutish and inelegant; Purugly barges its way into other Pokémon’s nests to take over. Though it’s a harsh Pokémon, its soft fur is trendy, pristine, and can be used in many ways.

15.   Purrloin

·         Number:          509

·         Type:                 Dark

·         Specie:             Devious Pokémon

Purrloin resembles the house cat in all ways and sorts. It also seems like a very charming and alluring Pokémon but don’t be fooled by its sweet nature. It is famous for being devious and manipulative. It steals things just to see people get frustrated, draws whoever opposes it closer by its charm, and then scratches them. It laughs and enjoys seeing confusion and frustration in others. Purrloin can walk on its hind legs; its striking colors and tail help it stand out from the rest of the cat Pokemon.

16.   Liepard

·         Number:          510

·         Type:                 Dark

·         Specie:             Cruel Pokémon

Liepard is a vicious dark type Pokémon based on a leopard, an observation we make by looking at its design. It has gorgeous spotty fur and walks elegantly but don’t misjudge this Pokémon; it is very moody and can be feral if agitated. Its elegance also helps its stealth, and this Pokémon moves with stealth to sneak up and capture its prey.

17.   Litleo

·         Number:          667

·         Type:                 Fire and Normal

·         Specie:             Lion Cub Pokémon

Litleo is one of the cutest Pokémon out there, based on a lion cub which is very apparent. It has a cute red mane on the top of its head that surges with heat the stronger the opponent it faces. This cute Pokémon is very prideful and sets off on a journey, leaving their pride to become stronger. Litleo is quick to get into a fight; when more heat surges through its mane, more power flows through its body.

18.   Pyroar

·         Number:          668

·         Type:                 Fire and Normal

·         Specie:             Royal Pokémon

Pyroar is a majestic Pokémon that genuinely resembles a real lion; even the gender differences are pretty similar. The male Pyroar has a large mane that covers its head and neck, whereas the female has a long mane protruding from its head to the back. They travel in packs, and the male with the largest mane of fire leads the pride. It challenges all who threaten its tribe with a flamethrower that burns at 10,000 Fahrenheit. The females are first to protect the cubs whenever there might be a challenger or an intruder.

19.   Espurr

·         Number:          677

·         Type:                 Psychic

·         Specie:             Restraint Pokémon

It is an adorable bipedal cat Pokémon with a strong blank stare which is jarring for many. Behind this blank stare resides a mighty psychic Pokémon. Its expression never changes no matter how hard you try; many speculate it’s because of its need to remain neutral and calm to hold back its psychic prowess. There is enough psychic power in Espurr to send a wrestler flying, but it has trouble controlling it; hence it’s always troubled. You can identify it’s a cat Pokemon from its name and even more so from its evolution.

20.   Meowstic

·         Number:          678

·         Type:                 Psychic

·         Specie:             Constraint Pokémon

An unfriendly yet elegant evolution to a cute stale expression Pokémon. Meowstic is a Pokémon with different forms and even characteristics based on its gender. With even more psychic Pokémon, the male and female vary, with the make being dark blue with white stripes and the female with a white appearance and dark blue prints. The female version is much more aggressive and selfish than the male version. If it doesn’t get what it wants, it will torment everyone to get it. The female Meowstic has enough power to tear a tanker apart; on the contrary, the male is defensive, focusing on protecting themselves or their partners; they do it by revealing a hidden pattern on the insides of their ears. Even the moves they learn in the games vary from aggressive and defensive based on gender.

21.   Litten

·         Number:          725

·         Type:                 Fire

·         Specie:             Fire Cat Pokemon

Litten resembles an average cat, but the fiery demeanor tries to differentiate it from the rest. Its entire outlook resembles that of a tiger. Litten was one of the more popular starters in Sun and Moon; the fur balls it builds, it sets them on fire to cough out fireballs. It’s difficult to tame because it doesn’t easily open up to trainers; if it ever opens up to you, you still have to maintain a distance since this Pokémon prefers solitude even though it cares for you. When it needs to shed its hair, it burns it off by setting it on fire.

22.   Torracat

·         Number:          726

·         Type:                 Fire

·         Specie:             Fire Cat Pokemon

It evolves from Litten to resemble a tiger even more than its predecessor. As it evolves, it gains confidence and strength, so much so that it can bend an iron bar with a punch. The ring it gains on its neck looks like a collar but acts as a catalyst that burns brightly whenever this Pokémon uses fire attacks. Once it’s close to a trainer, it can act very spoiled, so much so that its sharp claws always leave marks on its trainer. To know that Torracat is happy, you will see its mane standing on the ends, and if it’s not, the mane will be flat.

23.   Incineroar

·         Number:          727

·         Type:                 Fire and Dark

·         Specie:             Heel Pokémon

The move to make Incineroar bipedal is still questionable with some fans. Still, nevertheless, this cat-type Pokémon is inspired by pro wrestlers. It is strong, stocky, and muscular; Incineroar is generally violent and selfish. It won’t listen to its trainer if it doesn’t want to but what makes it thrive is a good challenge. Even though it’s rough around the edges, it won’t fight against unworthy opponents, which it finds boring. The light in its eyes truly shines whenever it goes against a more substantial challenge; these intense battles lead the flames around its waist to burn intensely.

24.   Solgaleo

·         Number:          791

·         Type:                 Psychic and Steel

·         Specie:             Sunne Pokémon

The legendary Pokémon from Sun and Moon resembles a lion; this Pokémon of the galaxies is said to live in another world. The light it radiates from its body is so intense that it can make the darkest of nights feel like the day. In ancient texts, many have talked about Solgaleo as the beast that would devour the sun. As its third eye gets activated, it departs to another world.

25.   Dusk Mane Necrozma

·         Number:          800

·         Type:                 Psychic and Steel

·         Specie:             Prism Pokémon

Some might call this addition a stretch, but I believe it counts as a different Pokémon. It is the combination of two legendary Pokémon with their own specific Pokedex entries. When it absorbs the form and power of Solgaleo, it takes on this form. This makes it uncontrollable and ferocious.

26.   Zeraora

·         Number:          807

·         Type:                 Electric

·         Specie:             Thunderclap Pokémon

A unique cat Pokemon with solid and ferocious claws, this Pokémon has a special move called plasma fists that convert Normal-type moves to Electric-type attacks. It can tear its opponents with its electrifying claws, whose sparks are so potent that even touching them would electrocute you. Since this Pokémon embodies electricity, it can move at lightning speed. Zeraora’s color and speed make’s us think that the Cheetah inspired it.

27.   Sprigatito

·         Number:          906

·         Type:                 Grass

·         Specie:             Grass Cat Pokemon

A new fan favorite, this starter Pokémon from Scarlet and Violet has all eyes on it. This cute smiling feline is a sight for sore eyes, it loves the wilderness, and by kneading and rubbing its forepaws, it can release an aroma that mesmerizes those around it. The scent it emits is therapeutic to trainers and Pokémon alike, so much so that its opponents usually lose the will to fight.

Arguably Cat Pokemon

1.       Mew and Mewtwo

While it is true that mews genetics hold the DNA of all Pokémon and Mewtwo was created from Mew, I don’t believe this would give these Pokémon a spot on the list. They lack the feline and cat-like features and behavior that all the other Pokémon have; these Pokémon resemble a mouse, whereas Mewtwo seems like an original creation altogether. I mean, both of these Pokémon don’t even have paws.

2.       Sneasel

Some argue that its features and ears mimic those of a cat, but I stand by the reasoning it is more based on a weasel than a cat. It takes eggs from unguarded Pidgey nests and is very quick and cunning. This Pokémon is based on weasels and ferrets but very loosely on cats, and I feel like it’s a stretch.

3.       Suicune

Many argue that Suicune is a Pokémon that belongs to the specie of leopards, but I don’t see it. Everything about this Pokémon reminds me of dogs and wolves, and it’s very K9 in its nature and demeanor. For me, the wolf-like traits outshine the leopard ones, so I didn’t include them in the list.

4.       Munchlax and Snorlax

The way these Pokémon act does resemble cats, but their demeanor reminds me more of pandas than cats. The search for food, goofy acting, and laziness might be similar to that of a cat, but nothing else is, which is why I didn’t add them to the list.

5.       Eevee and Eevelutions

I didn’t include many of the Eeveelutions because some reminded me of foxes and others reminded me of dogs. They are unique in their build and can be classified as cat Pokémon; I mean, I see the resemblance, which is why I added Espeon and Umbreon to the list. Glaceon is a strong contender for the list, but their shape and demeanor remind me too much of dogs, so I didn’t add them to the list.

Conclusion

So these are all the Cat type Pokémon that we know of right now; Pokémon has taken inspiration from many real-world animals. Some are subtle, and others are very noticeable, like Pyroar and Girrafarig; we still love seeing new and innovative designs that we might get as companions. So do you agree with the Pokémon on here? Do you think Mew and the Eeveelutions deserve a spot on the list? Let us know, and we would love to hear from you.

Claws of Carnality | jjk (3)

 Pairing: alpha jungkook x omega reader

Genre: smut, fluff and angst, abo/werewolf, fantasy 

Rating: 18+ / nsfw

Word Count: 3.2k

Warnings: alpha!jungkook, possessive!jungkook, omega!reader, mentions of breeding/ruts/heats, mentions of a mark, slick and pre-ejaculatory production, scenting 

Summary: Denial is a crude adversary in how it battles your want to accept the alpha that has no shadings of doubt that you are, in fact, his mate. He intends to clear things up for you using the one surefire thing that will, however, prove him to truly be yours and you are utterly helpless in denying him.

A/N: So, here we are with part three already. Goodness, I can’t even believe how much attention this has gotten so far. Please keep it up, you guys! It really feeds my creative juices and encourages me when you guys let me know what you think of the stories I put out! Anyway, I hope you all enjoy this next part. Things are gradually going to begin to heat up from here on out and I can’t wait to see how you all react! 

Part 1  Part 2  Part 4  Part 5  Part 6  Part 7  Part 8 Part 9

You try to swim through the flurry of thoughts, the floundering disbelief heavy as you wade through it in spite of the amused alpha that watches you with interest as a myriad of expressions pull at your features. It’s difficult to keep yourself afloat amidst the frenzy of emotions that cascade over you and your alpha notices this in the way that you fidget where you stand in the intensity with which he regards you, your hand clutching at your skirt as you inhale through your mouth to attempt to replace the air that eludes you.

 One side of his lips curl upward in the effect he’s already had on you that only deepens in your silent refusal to acknowledge the final piece of the puzzle that would complete the missing segment of conviction still lost to you.

 Unlike you, Jungkook has not an inkling of doubt that you are, without question, his mate. He just hadn’t known up until a few moments ago that you are to become something so much deeper than that to him that will extend into his very being, for even he’d had no idea that you are destined to be his soulmate in which there hasn’t been a pair of wolves like that for many thousands of years.

 It all made sense to him in how his eyes had found themselves magnetized to the opposite pole that was you,  the constant holder of his attention whenever he’d had the privilege to watch you frolic gleefully with your omegean friends outside your den whenever he passed by through the cover of the trees after a successful hunt, his own scent masked by the carcasses of his prey.

 He’d never been able to explain the inexplicable pull toward you that had grasped him unrelentingly until he’d managed to catch sight or smell of you to, nor had it made sense to him why he’d wanted to express himself to you so much so that he’d danced in effort to satisfy the need to bask in the warmth of your intrigued gaze.

 Nothing has ever quite compared to the way that his blood races when you so much as glance at him now that he thinks on it and gods, he longs for you to welcome him now as eagerly as you had in the supposed safety of dreams. Even now the inebriating scent of you coils around him insistently as it begs for him to come closer to the source of his desires he’s yearned for years.

 It’s not as easy for you to accept this, though, no matter how much you want to. Gods, do you want to.

 In light of the bright, flashing signs that your wolf begs for you to heed, there’s a very critical and very crucial element that would immediately clear away the lingering shadow of denial that this creature before you who looks to have been crafted by the gods is meant to be yours. Despite your purebred omegean blood that distinguishes you as the most desirable of candidates for alphas and betas alike in the rarity of such a pedigree amongst your dynamic, Jeon Jungkook could have any bitch in the pack he wished. There were many others who you believed looked better and gave back to the clan more than the likes of you.

  And in the self-consciousness that shackles you, you had not breathed through your nose ever since he’d brought himself near to you.

 You know that the moment that you do, there will be no question that he is truly the alpha from your dreams who boldly claims to be your mate, for the intoxicating scent of him that had incensed itself within you was deliciously unforgettable in the way it had had the power to have you glistening with slick upon a single whiff. Because of that, there is a reason that you are actively choosing not to use your olfactory sense around him.

 Only within the old tales written in the aged tomes of the compound’s archives which are guarded by the elders has there been recollections of the legendary lupi antiquis, who were the progenitors of the werewolf race. These creatures were incarnations of nature manifested into the bodies of wolves that were guided by the moon’s phases in the celestial body’s wish to bring life to the earth in the decay of other mythical creatures who had grown sad and lifeless without a companion in the rarity of which they’d roamed.

 To ensure the strongest and most virile of the moon’s creations found a partner that would belong and be designed solely for them, it was said that the celestial body preselected the companion that would remain loyal to them through the entirety of their life by choosing for them a soulmate.

 The word has always been held close your heart in the romantic radiance of it, for it had been said that a bond unlike any other in the lupine world burgeoned inside two destined mates of the moon’s selection among the abilities that allow such a pair to share thoughts and feelings with one another telepathically across insurmountable distances in addition to each wolf becoming stronger where the alpha would gain physical strength while the omega would be granted bolstered mental fortitude.

 Beyond that, the wolf’s kiss could cure their mate of any ailment or injury in the profound love that the very essences of each kindred spirit were vested with as they longed ardently to remain together forever and always.

 As time had passed, the word had begun to become diluted in the diminished occurrences with which it happened as more and more werewolves began to populate and once pure bloodlines became soured by excessive mating between different partners in the uncontrollable ruts and heats that drove them to couple with any wolf in the vicinity under the influence purely of instinct to breed and be bred.

 Many lives had been lost during the violent, territorial battles over both alphas and omegas for a partner that often ended in death to one or both participants, the lessons of the past yielding guidance to the future generation in the written accounts left behind so that the fledgling pups that came after would not suffer as the earlier wolves had.

 It is why your pack has such defined rules now upon the presentation or period of peak maturity for omegas in particular because they have always been the desired mates of alphas.

 It is also how the entire compound knows when the last happening of two soulmates was, which had been a couple thousand years ago when the moon had aligned with the rest of the planetary bodies in the meticulously structured history courses that all maturing wolves are mandated to take and in the stories that are told by the elders over annual bonfires celebrating the bonding between two wolves.

 Perhaps it is all of these reasons that have every wolf in your pack still able to discern and recognize the defined series of circumstances that present themselves between two lupine creatures fated to be each other’s soulmate.

 The first is the gift of sight, which allows each lupine creature to see the eyes of their mate. The second is the gift of olfaction, which is the amalgamation of scents naturally produced from the scent gland of each wolf that have the ability to draw the undivided attention of their destined other so temptingly that it causes sudden production of either slick for omegas and pre-ejaculative fluid for alphas. In addition, this one is powerful enough that it acts an effluvious vice that impulses each lupine creature in how desirously their mate can waft into and draw out their counterpart’s instincts.     

 Each are granted only after the moon lights a path for them both to meet, but that hadn’t happened for you, had it? After all, it’s not like the stream of dreams every night after the last eclipse could have-

 Your eyes widen bigger than the largest star as your cheeks color themselves redder than a ruby in mortification as the links join together and that has the alpha relishing in the adorable sight of you as he croons, “There it is, pretty. I knew you would come around soon enough,” he fixes his sight on the edge of a reddened petal he’d caused to fall over your skin in your supposed fantasy that peeks out from under the edge of your silken choker that he wishes he could tear off of you and add more of his marks to as he continues, “Did you think I would allow my mate to suffer with how desperately you whined and how loudly you howled for me?”

 You fumble for words in the embarrassment that soaks you as you try to speak past a mouth that is dryer than the desert while you shake your head like you’re in a daze and you might as well be in how incapable you are of rationalizing at this point.

 “This can’t be… it can’t be possible.” You whisper quietly as if thinking aloud and Jungkook finds that he appreciates the sound of you, that he is pleased in how you’ve finally chosen to use that cute voice of yours and let him into your thoughts.  

 The alpha coos, “Oh, my pretty omega, but it can,” he takes one calculated step closer, “Come on, little omega, smell me.  Do not think that I have not caught on to the fact that you haven’t used your nose in your efforts to deny this, to deny me.” His honeyed voice slathers itself over you, as you melt under its thickness, “You asked your alpha to come find you and I have, pretty. Now, it’s time for you to do the same. Scent me and see that I am the one the moon has promised you to, that I am the alpha you belong to.”

 He delivers his words to you in the form of a command as he takes another step toward you only to have your heart beat faster against your ribcage, your wolf lowering its head in submission as you try to make yourself smaller under his searing, prompting gaze and the longer that you dangerously surrender yourself to those golden irises that are still speckled with the silver that mirrors your own, your resistance cracks and folds gradually under his increasingly prominent pressure. It can only be compacted and compressed so much until nothing remains and, unable to disobey his directive, you swallow a thick lump of nervousness down your throat before clearing it as he looks on expectantly.

 His avid attention sears into you doggedly and, under its power, your omega blood boils in need to heed him and, purely driven by your body’s desideratum to yield to him without the input of any cognizant thought, your hand finds itself slowly and tentatively lifting toward the exposed neck that he has bared torturously against the obscenely opened shirt.  The fluttery wings of anticipation flap animatedly within you as the alpha watches with intrigue, allowing you to slowly near him.

 Your fingers do not stall as they ghost over the notch between his collarbones as you dare to allow yourself to touch the skin that tries to reach for you in the waves of heat that roll off of him and when you turn your hand so that the soft underside of your wrist just barely manages to rub against his sensitive scent gland that all but strains and pulses against you, your breath hitches as a deep rumble of a growl tumbles from his throat in response.

 It is not a sound born of aggression, but of satisfaction that has your omega preening under its euphoniously low trill and when his fingers close around your forearm to possessively drag your radiocarpal joint back and forth over the intimate area that secretes pheromones wantonly for you, your wolf sings at his hot touch, at the way that his fingers curl deliciously over your delicate skin.

 The whole time, his irises flash tellingly in gratification that has you helplessly falling for the way he looks at you like you’re the only thing that exists, the only thing that matters as he greedily drinks in the way your mouth has parted dazedly while he coats himself in your own essence that is produced richly from the glands in your wrist.

 The scent glands of the neck were far stronger, far more potent, but right now, he will take from you what you decide to give. There will be time for more later, he is sure.

 Your delicious scent is quick to consume him, the sound that drips from his lips deepening in pitch as your aroma drapes itself over him in its entirety before sinking into his very pores until he’s momentarily drunk off you, his pupils enlarging until there is only you.

 “Gods,” he utters, “you smell like sin, pretty. You’re like a fucking aphrodisiac in how you tempt me.” Somewhere in his pants, his cock twitches to life at the mere scent of you as your carnal essence awakens something far too primal within him.

 “J-Jungkook,” you whimper, your wolf baying in delight at his admission and wantful actions.

 In response to him, your own irises dilate as your heart pangs wildly against your chest, breath a hard companion to come by in his overbearingly alluring presence that seeks your own in the warmth of his skin that reaches longingly for you.

 You can’t begin to rationalize how long he slides your wrist sinfully against him as he makes a point of trailing your radiocarpal joint over the vast expanse of muscles that line his neck as they all but jump at your touch as the sound that tumbles from his lips darkens impossibly more only to draw out a whine from you. Minutes or hours could have passed since this started, but you have no care in the world because of how caught you are under his simmering stare.

 Once he’s secure in the knowledge that succulent scent of you has smeared him to the point of no return, that’s when he pulls your hand back until he holds it under your nostrils while his mouth waters at the delectable waft of you through his own that sets his very blood on fire.

 His fingers sink wonderfully into your skin and it is positively unholy in how his heat permeates you until you’re filled gloriously with it he orders, “Go on now, my pretty omega.  Breathe me in until every last doubt is torn from you and all you can think about is me,” his breath is hot against your cheek as he inches impossibly closer in the need to be impossibly closer to you as you shakily exhale while he finishes, “Drink me in until this little body of yours is sated in the sweet recognition of the alpha that owns it.”   

 His words settle viscously over you and in the command of the alpha that you are helpless to resist with your omegean blood, you do. You did not want to fight this, did not want to fight him. It went against your baser instincts and nature to do so. It was all just your self-consciousness that had bound you back and away from him, but under his attention that does not waver in the imposing neediness of it that glints with a savage saturation dripping from his very being, you can’t withstand it. So, you obey.

 The change is immediate.

 Upon the first whiff of him that drizzles up through your nostrils to trickle fluidly like that of a delicious philter through you, your every cell is flooded with stimulation that is guided by the heady essence that is decidedly and uniquely him. He tastes of newly dewed grasses that are accented by an earthly underlayer and somehow it is all bolstered by the overwhelmingly delicious amalgamation of blooming gardenia, black vanilla and freshly matured pear.

 A sudden deposit of slick finds itself between your folds that glisten to life and it earns a sharp growl from him as he brings one lip between his teeth.

 He reeks of pungently dangerous desire that beckons your very being and your eyes roll to the back of your head at in its insistent invitation as he fills you with his quintessence and soon your body can no longer bear your weight in the way that his strong incense curls around you to have your limbs grow weak under its inexorable consummation of you.

 Your weakly whisper, “Alpha…my alpha,” the concession quick to run through your veins as you yield to him.

 Your legs begin to tremble precariously with each breath you take in effort to collect as much of him as you can, the familiar smell exactly alike to that of the one belonging to the wolf from your dreams as understanding and recognition saturate your being.

 “Omega,” Jungkook breathes, satisfaction washing over him as he watches your body react so affectedly to him.

 And when your body is no longer able to bear your weight in how quickly the alpha has drawn away their strength through his own power, he is there.

 At the same time that your head falls back and your sense of equilibrium leaves you through numbed legs, one of his large hands finds its place along your nape while one muscled arm wraps around your back to pull you against the built planes of an aureate chest as he croons, “My beautiful omega. You’ve acknowledged me at long last. Such a good girl for me, you are,” he angles his head low so that his heated breath once more billows against you, “I��m going to take you with me to the forest now, pretty. Once we’re there, you’re going to watch me shift so that I can hunt just for you. When I return,” his pink tongue darts outward to wet his lips as his gaze surges with hunger, “I expect my mate to be waiting for me before I let every wolf in this fucking compound know that you’re mine when I claim you at the ceremony tonight.”

 Your breath stutters at that and when his arms dip to collect you like his bride as he tucks you against the muscled chest that you subconsciously lean into you in the safety that pours from him that your wolf relishes in. Through it all, you can only barely utter, “As you wish, alpha.”

 As he holds you close, you nuzzle your alpha and there’s a high-pitched, satisfied purr that easily cascades through your throat in the warmth and security that his able body offers. You care not how far your song of satisfaction is carried in the winds that swell against you only to roll tauntingly over all the alphas in the distance that Jungkook is in charge of as the pack alpha’s son who is meant to one day lead the compound.

All that matters is that you’ve found your alpha and that he, in turn, has found you.

 High in the sky, the moon hides behind the awakening sun as golden rays begin to filter searchingly through the thick underbrush of the forest lining the horizon as far as the eye can see.

[sexy-zeitreise-detektiv]

okay but where tf is my hg tannhaus content at? he basically had to raise some baby just after he lost his kid and grandkid, he's a clock maker who doesn't (or does depending how you see his 'splitting the world' thing) time travel and his 'life's work' is borne from a bootstrap paradox. all i'm saying is. hg tannhaus king.

Sorry I kind of forgot about this asks and I'm not sure if this response will satisfy your need for more Tannhaus content but here we go.

It's true, his clockworker aesthetic is extremely underutilized in fanart and I rarely see any fanfiction of him, even though there's tons of potential interactions with Charlotte and internal struggles that the show chose not to portray. Like how does Tannhaus deal with the absolute whiplash of losing his entire family and then becoming a father again in the same night? What's the relationship between him and Charlotte like? Besides all the obvious angst? Do they make pancakes together? Does Tannhaus actually dare to love her or is he scared that he will lose her "again"? We will never know!! Although sealandreich on ao3 has a very good Charlotte- and Tannhaus-focused series, so I would recommend you check that out.

Usually I would rant more about how this character deserved way more screentime, however! in this case I understand the artistic choice behind retaining Tannhaus for as much as they did. It makes sense if you see the series through a Jewish/Christian lens with Adam and Eva representing their biblical counterparts and Tannhaus as the creator of their universes representing god. Though usually in religious texts, god is presented either as a punishing force or as a loving fatherly figure. Dark subverts this expectation by making it's god figure mostly ignorant towards his creation. Very angsty and *Hannibal voice* nietzschean, if I dare say so. On a side note, it's also very obvious that Claudia is Dark's take on Satan, even though (or rather especially because) she is not a purely malicious force. She's the one pulling all of the strings, she's the one getting Jonas and Martha to commit the original original sin, and generally being a morally grey queen. And like... she gets called "Der Weiße Teufel" all the time, I think we get it lmao.

Another religious approach, that also fits nicely into Dark's love of the number three, would be a Hindu reading, where Tannhaus, Adam and Eva each represents a part of the Trimurti. Tannhaus would therefore be Brahma the creator, Eva would be Vishnu the conserver and Adam Shiva the destroyer. I am not at all an expert on Hinduism but as far as I understand all of them are actually one entity (->everything is connected). Which also ties in with a third possible reading:

The whole multiverse is Tannhaus's trauma response to losing his family. I know, this is basically canon but I propose that if we theoretically could see every character, who was created in the time travel bullshit thing, as a facet of Tannhaus's personality/emotional response to his trauma. Adam represents pure anger and bad coping mechanisms that only hurt him and others more, whereas Eva represents his urge to remain in this sort of comforting stage of depression. I guess that would make Claudia a therapist of some sorts? Or maybe his only healthy impulse in all of this mess? Idk at this point I'm just rambling.

This got very dry and very serious very quickly so fun Tannhaus headcanons: He loves bird watching (while they are alive), he once met Nena but didn't recognize her (one of many things to fuel Charlotte's teen angst) and.... he's trans. (There's nothing to indicate that any of this is true, I just want it to be.)

To conclude this essay, yes, Tannhaus is actually technically speaking the main character and yes, I will probably make fanart of him soon and lastly yes, Dark good. Have a wonderful day, anon.

Ruolph Steiner Antroposophy versus Christianity

Anthroposophy is a spiritualist movement founded in the early 20th century by the esotericist Rudolf Steiner that postulates the existence of an objective, intellectually comprehensible spiritual world, accessible to human experience. Wikipedia

Steiner’s Origins

In Steiner’s version of the creation of our universe, everything began as pure spirit.  Under the influence of Ahriman, this spirit began to harden into physical matter.  As it hardened, humanity began to appear, evolving through a grotesque series of increasingly physical bodies developing on Saturn, the Sun and the Moon.   Steiner avoids the problem of moving our developing bodies from one location to another by claiming the Earth once included Saturn, the Sun and the moon.  Each of these bodies were ejected from the earth as we moved on to the next stage.  As humans evolved into our current Earth form, we developed more specialized limbs and sense organs.  We eventually acquired individual identities (supposedly beginning with John the Baptist) rather than a broad group ego which all early beings shared.

Steiner believed that our current human forms are fully hardened.  In accord with his Gnostic beliefs, Steiner characterises the physical creation as essentially evil, unlike Jehovah God who said it was ‘very good’.  Now, with the help of Lucifer and with Jesus as an example, he claims we are beginning the reverse process back to fully spirit beings, though we will retain our individual egos.  Steiner expands on this theory in his book Cosmic Memory, which also examines the continuation of this process on Earth, where he claims we evolved through (among others) the Hyperborean, Lemurian and Atlantean stages and diverged into male and female forms.Steiner claims this bizarre ‘prehistory’ does not originate with him but comes from the secret records of Esotericism revealed to him by spirit beings (aka demons).5  He does not seem concerned that his creation myths break almost every known law of the physical universe.  Nor is there any physical evidence.  No trace of a slowly flooded Atlantis on the ocean floor near Ireland has ever been found. No partially evolved human remains consistent with his speculations have ever been found.  Indeed, not a single scrap of evidence supporting any of Steiner’s allegations has ever been found.

It is obvious that Steiner does not believe anything that the Bible says about the creation of our universe or the creation (and destiny) of mankind.  He also rejects what Jesus said about these issues, as Jesus clearly taught that Genesis is true, as shown in Mark 10:6, Mark 13:9, Luke 16:31 and Luke 24:27.  How can anything else Steiner says about Christianity be trusted?

WHO IS JESUS CHRIST?

Steiner claims that Jesus was just a man who had reached a high level of development after many reincarnations and he only “became” the Christ when he was filled with the ‘Christ Impulse’ at the time of his water baptism by John the Baptist.  When Jesus’s blood flowed onto the ground, he says that the ‘Christ Impulse’ then left Jesus and became one with the being of the earth.

To give some credence to this claim he suggests that Joseph was Jesus’s physical father and that the “virgin birth” was spiritual.  If this is true why does Mary ask Gabriel in Luke 1:34 how can she bring forth a son when she has never known a man?  Why does Luke in 3:23 say that Jesus was Joseph’s son “as was supposed”?   Why does Matthew in his genealogy say “Joseph the husband of Mary, of whom was born Jesus who is called Christ.”, instead of “Joseph begot Jesus” as in the rest of his genealogy, thus avoiding actually naming Joseph as his biological parent? (Matthew 1:16)  Why does God send an Angel to Joseph to assure him that she hasn’t been with another man if he thinks he is the father? (Matthew 1:20)  Why do vs 24 and 25 tell us that he never ‘knew’ her until Jesus was born?

Our article Jeshua the Messiah, Is He the Son of God or Part of a Trinity explains far more about who Jesus (Jeshua) really is and his relationship with his Father.  If you believe that the Son of God is merely the result of an illegitimate union as Steiner teaches, you must reject the Bible, as you have another gospel and another Jesus (Galatians 1:6 to 9).

Reincarnation Or Resurrection?

Reincarnation is a fundamental part of Steiner’s beliefs. He teaches that we have all gone through millions of years of reincarnations, evolving through various semi-human stages until we become human, and even then we ‘evolve’ through the various races of mankind until we reach the pinnacle: blond-haired, blue-eyed Aryans—like Steiner.  At this point Steiner is agreeing with Hitler’s racist Nazi beliefs.  And if we live unworthy lives, we can go backwards, and be reincarnated as animals again. (a concept taken from Hinduism.)

WE MUST CHOOSE

God is not an anthroposophist.  As far as He is concerned there is only one true religion and that is the one He gives to us in his word.  God asks us through his prophet Elijah; “How long will you falter between two opinions?  If Jehovah is God, follow him; but if Baal, then follow him.” (See First Kings 18:21.  The whole of chapter 18 shows God’s attitude to false religions).

Jesus also warns us: “Enter by the narrow gate; for wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction, and there are many who go in it.  How narrow is the gate and strict is the way which leads to life, and there are few who find it.  Beware of false prophets, who come among you clothed as lambs, but within they are ravenous wolves.” (Matthew 7:13 to 15).  Jeshua (Jesus) goes even farther when He says “Not everyone who says to Me, ‘My Lord, My Lord,’ will enter into the Kingdom of Heaven, but whoever does the will of My Father who is in heaven.” (Matthew 7:21)  So being a follower of Christ doesn’t simply mean saying you are a Christian, it also means knowing the will of God and doing it.  The Bible reveals the will of God.  Please!!  Read it!

music, ya know

this is a complete impulse of lying in bed middle of the night thoughts that i don’t even know if anyone’s gonna see that have been stemmed off the experiences of the past couple days, topic of 1:41 am mind boggle:

music and it’s aesthetic and importance in literal every sense cause it’s just that important to me

first experience of realizing this, i’ve always loved film scores and listening to music and the orchestral pieces from movies and shows, but it really seemed to hit me recently, like the fact that this week’s new LOKI episode, no spoilers, has the most badass score and a badass scene with such a perfect mix and musical atmosphere. i literally had one of my best friends over, who has a very small interest in comics, cinema, marvel in general, especially a show about a norse comic god that they know nothing about, and whilst they sat there for my own regard, watching the show like a normal human being would, i sat there clinching their hand, watching in awe as our music is louder than actors talking tv speakers spurted out the most spine tightening world building story and just wandered “jesus that was good” and whilst i will always think about the superior acting, cgi, the amount of different people that just went into those few scenes and like what was physical set and what was computer image and what the hell did i just watch that has my brain running olympic marathon circles right now?

the thought that said brain kept going back to was that fucking score. it was literally tearing apart of every corner of my head and why was it doing that?

second experience, another marvel one, but i digress. black widow (no spoilers i promise), thursday night, movie theater for the first time in i can’t even remember how long now and we set through so many previews just for fucking boss baby to start playing and the reaction of the theater to make me burst out laughing.

however whatever works in that little projection box, gets fixed and the movie is pushed to just a little before it starts, a nice small pepsi ad, the regal rollercoaster intro (if you go to regal movie theaters ya know what i’m talking about), and then i hear it - the marvel studios logo - something so musically engraved into my head that my ass that can’t sing for anything, can harmonize with the sound and makes the hair on the back of my neck stand up around movie theater surround sound. but i can’t think of that now, i’m here to watch black widow, a movie on hiatus with the rest of the world for so long now, a character i didn’t know much about it or truly, didn’t have the most connection with in the first place. yet through that one movie, i seemed to build one of those.

ofc though scarlett johansson’s beautiful acting and world building, but it isn’t until the end of the movie that i even realize why. it was the fucking score again. when i think about it, the beginning of the movie felt like all of black widows scenes in the avengers movies for me, kinda just, there. not really emotionally tugging, not bad ofc either, but just, there. in the present, watching something cool in motion. but then it hits, what i can only describe as a theme that somehow tells the entire black widow movie in one singular composition. something so badass, story telling, but also just singularly black widow-esk. i can tell you that i walked out the movie theater rambling about the composition and looking up composers.

third experience, the most recent as it was literally like 20 minutes ago and sprung one train rail of a thought process that immediately tugged me into typing this brain vomit into a tumblr post. i have playlists. for everything. and when i say everything, i fucking mean everything. i’m a writer and a reader, i have playlists mostly for the young avengers, my most utter comfort characters, and their stories i’m writing. i also have playlists/genre/specific song for about every book i read.

when i read red white and royal blue when that came out, i noticed i listened to one of the drunks by panic at the disco the entirety of the ending of the book and the words and music fit together like puzzle pieces, not only did it make the reading experience better, but i was so fucking emerged in my over hyper-imagitive brain that when i finally actually finished the book, i still never left. rewind present day to the beginning of this past june, one last stop comes out, ofc i get it the day it comes out with my anticipation building like wildfire. i start reading that night and i put on my recents on my liked songs playlist (true to true spotify user) and i slowly over the next day as i read and finish the book, windle down to the genre, then the band, to the album, to the exact song that feels like the carbon copy of the words i’m reading. that song was only ones who know by the arctic monkeys. now go back to this past week, anyone who reads the carry on series knows, anyway the wind blows came out this past tuesday. i waited till wednesday to buy the ✨pretty special addition barnes and nobles copy✨ so that the dear friend that indulged me by watching loki that same day could buy it at the same time and make a cute book date or whateva. i started reading that night and something just felt ,,, off. i didn’t know what it was, but i was living off the pure joy that simon and co give me so i ignored the feeling. until i realized why it felt off this morning. i wasn’t listening to any fucking music, literally nothing, not even queen. motherfucking. queen.

i looked for the snowbaz playlist i made when i read carry on for the first time back in 2016/2017 when i was still a freshman in high school just to remember i deleted that literally forever ago. so i made a new one. like an hour and a half ago. very inspired on how i made the playlists for the young avengers and all their stories. letting the music talk.

the fact that all these rambling thoughts have led to this conclusion makes my head hurt, but for me at least in my own experiences. music talks. a two way conversation. a radio broadcast, turning the peg until you match the same frequency thats being put out and you can hear it and understand it. it’s like when you see comedians on stages or actors on panels, they talk, you have reactions, you talk back, and so forth the loop continues until the last voice, last note, rings out. music and songs and orchestral pieces and bands and composers and lyric writers are telling you the stories in reverse. they don’t know their doing it, obviously they meant something entirely different in their creations, but it’s like literature and any work of words and storytelling. interpretation. to me, the notes, pianos, violins, guitars, drums, singers, cellos, and anything that can make sound you can think of, is telling you something. whispering in your ear as you watch or read. facial features, emotions the characters dont say out loud, outfits, they way their standing or talking or moving or interacting with anything and everything.

when i just made that carry on playlist, i played it, decided to try read some good almost 2 am fan fic as you do, my hanging on by a thread sleep brain telling me words aren’t recognizable right now, and tighten myself into a blanket to see if i can sleep at all. the playlist still plays and my never shuts up head thinks it’s own daydreams, stresses out about anything it can, that is until the song plays. the one that just speaks the carry on trilogy language. the one that i found whilst i was reading wayward son and then would play whenever i re read carry on. the one that started this whole way too long ass post in the first place. cant be alone tonight by atlas. i heard just the first sound and i saw them, as if i were in the same room, like i never even put the book down in the first damn place because i’m actually terrified of finishing it. i could see simon in his oversized hoodies, baz in an outfit that was way too good just to be sitting inside, agatha looking as pleasantly pretty as ever, penelope poking fun at shepherd, and shepherd poking fun right back; bickering, laughing, saying the dialogues i try to remember so i can write them later, existing.

in a way music doesn’t just talk, but it lives. it lives and breaths. a three way conversation you could say. characters, stories, plot, and settings talk to the music, then the music delivers us listeners the message, so that we can send one back. this literally took me over an hour to write and i should point the important note that i do have synesthesia where colors and sounds and colors and words do the association so this entire thing might be me being entirely biased, but alas, i love sound so much and if there is anyone else that feels the same ways as i do as just a simple good film score and song makes anything ten times better, feel free to talk, i will totally be awkward, but i need some music freaks like myself around so feel free to hit me up, also if you love movies and cinema also feel free to hit me up as i need movie buddies and now it’s 3 am and i will be going to bed - peace out 🛸

[radiosandrecordings]

There’s the person in me who loved psychology before I dropped out of that class and the one who currently studies moving image who really wants to run some kind of study on how fandom interprets things.

I’m gona take The Magnus Archives as a point of study for this. Say we have four test group:

Group 1 has watched every episode of TMA as it came out, episode one to two hundred as it airs, the full four year+ timeline. They have never interacted with the fandom and do not know anyone in real life who has listened to it.

Group 2 has also listened in real time, but interacts with fandom and talks about it regularly, consuming fan content like art and fics

Group 3 did what so many did and have binged all four seasons available to them before catching up and listening to season five in real time. They do not engage with fandom.

Group 4 does the same as group 3, but engages with fandom in the same way as group 2.

Readmore in case you don’t want to read 1000 words of me talking about media. 

I really want to see how this shifts their interpretations of canon. My theory being, group 1 would probably have the clearest view of canon by itself, while group 4 would have the most warped. I’m not saying any of these have better interpretations the source, just that group one would view it more clearly as it was presented in its original format

The thing that prompted this was the treatment of the character of Martin Blackwood specifically. He’s one of if not the most popular character, and is often simplified in fan spaces as the soft, caretaking love interest, or in some interpretations popular in fandom during the airing of the fourth season, the ‘sassy gay’. I’d really want to test how much of that interpretation comes from canon itself, or how people warp canon to fit how they want to view the text. 

I think it’s kind of similar of english class. Your teacher hands you a copy of Mice and Men and you read the book. As you go through, you discuss only what is in the text. You read and re-read the book until you have a good enough view of it that you can recall facts from memory and write an essay on it. What you don’t do, is read half the book, spend two months talking with your friends about it and reading and writing fanfiction about Lenny, George and Curly living on their ranch, just to be horrified and call it ‘OOC’ when somebody dies. 

Back to the study of TMA, Martin specifically is a character who has grown and developed a lot over the four and a bit seasons the show has been running. At a certain point halfway through the series, it becomes clear that he has a romantic interest in the protagonist, and this is later reciprocated. I started listening to the show during it’s season break, with S3 being finished and S4 about to release. At the time it was implied that Martin had feelings, but it was unclear if this would be further expanded upon in canon. I want to know how far fan opinion of him differs from before and after this event, and further when his feelings are returned and the relationship becomes canon. Did the establishment of him as a romantic lead create a softer view of him in the listeners mind?

This is prompted by the fact that, after the relationship became official, his actions have been under much more of a microscope from fans than previously. Things that would be brushed off before, especially if said to another side character, are now scrutinised when he says them to his partner. Would this view be shared by someone who listened to the show in isolation, or is it purely a construct of a fan base who are more used to their own fan comics and fic of him where he’s the soft, doting boyfriend who would never offend his partner? 

Because he has said things previously that are similar to how he is acting now, as episodes are released. He has been impulsive and inconsiderate with his words and missed cues in conversations, such as impulsively trying to touch some plastic explosives, or not getting a piece of self deprecating sarcasm and pointing out that the protagonist had just referred to himself as an idiot. This is where I would want to examine group 4 specifically. As people often listen to the whole four years of backlog in as short as a week, they often miss details such as this. They power through the source text, and then spend a longer amount of time immersed in fan interpretations, and my theory being that this long exposure overrides their memory of what his actions are in canon, and instead give a fan’s mental picture of him more of a fan created personality. They are more likely to remember something when it’s included in ten different fanfictions they read, all bouncing off each other, than an episode they listened sandwiched between two other episodes. 

Fan headcanons are also a slippery slope, because often you can end up with things being perceived as canon which have little or no basis. This is usually all in good fun, but chasing rabbit hole after rabbit hole from au to headcanon to interpretation can often create something entirely indistinguishable from the source (Hell, remember the Onceler thing?). Plus, the creation of one interpretation of a character that inspires another will spread if it gains enough popularity, possibly even seeping down into the bare bones of the fan base until it’s somehow everywhere. An example of this is the almost always used design for the protagonist as a south asian man with long, dark hair, glasses and a largely green colour scheme. Someone with no fandom knowledge like groups 1 or 3 would have no idea this popular design for the man exists, but it is likely whenever listening to the show, groups 2 and 4 would picture a variant on this base design. 

An added aspect of groups 1 & 2 that 3 & 4 don’t have is the fact that they get time to sit and theorise between episodes, whether alone or with a group respectively. When listening to a backlog like 3 & 4 you don’t need to sit and go ‘I wonder why he said that?’ because you can move on to the next episode and see why. 

Basically, TL;DR: It’s here’s my hypothetical proposition for a psychology/anthropology study on how people’s perspectives on a media are shaped by the nature of how they consume it, focusing on the timeframe in which they consume it and their exposure to outside influence. 

#My Post #I was trying to write this from an unbiased TMA fan perspective because I know I myself am subject to this just by being someone who listene #but I just wanted to examine this theory as a whole with TMA as the example study since it's something I know well AND has a clear example #CAN YOU TELL MY PARENTS HAVE ANTHROPOLOGY DEGREES #It doesn't even touch on web martin. i will write that sequel some day #neither of them have jobs to match but the curiosity rubbed off #The Magnus Archives #Martin Blackwood

NOTE: This a beautiful article by Paul Theroux which I thought was apt for today. There aren’t many writers who I feel “get” George, but Theroux is an exception.

George Harrison - Something in the way he moved us                

As Martin Scorsese's portrait of George Harrison is released, celebrated novelist Paul Theroux looks at the man who went from mop-top to mystic

It is a happy thought that the sweetest music arises from an untroubled heart. As though from the sky, here is this strong and contented virtuoso – George Harrison, say – whom we envy for being strong, someone supremely contented. What a lucky man to be able to create such harmony and to penetrate our soul; to make us feel better, to help heal us and ease our minds. Isn't it pretty to think so?

The truth is usually the opposite of this. The art that is indestructible and always fresh never comes easy. Its source is typically uncertain or bleak, sometimes harrowing, the pure notes quavering over an abyss of shadows between life and death, that mournful place from which the most passionate yearnings take shape in the form of a song, a poem, a story, a harmonious vision. But even as I write this, speaking of the complex process of creation, words and music made of doubt and the divided self, the conflicts that help us to be sane, and the paradox of opposites, I seem to hear someone mutter over my shoulder, "Rock music is about as metaphysical as my Aunt Fanny..."

And yet it seems to me impossible to overestimate the resonant clarity of George Harrison's music – his songs of innocence and experience; or the subtle wisdom of his lyrics. Even as a relative youngster, more than 30 years before his untimely death, in his All Things Must Pass album, he was singing powerfully of transformation, in the title track, and "Art of Dying," and "Beware of Darkness," and "What is Life." He could be as jolly as his ukulele-strumming hero and namesake, George Formby, but as soon as he seizes our attention with his humour and his teasing, he is reminding us – and himself – that we are mortal and all things end.

George at his best was a man dedicated to whittling down his ego; he was not one being but many and he remains an enduring figure of fascination to those of us for whom his music runs through our head, reminding us of better times. It is no wonder he was so passionate: he was himself his own wicked twin. He made no bones about this and, a hater of pomposity in all forms, he expressed it with characteristic downright-ness:

"I have this kind of strange thing," he said, "and I put it down to being a Pisces. Pisces is the sign of two fish. The way I see it is that one half is going where the other half has just been. I was in the West and I was into rock'n'roll, getting crazy, staying up all night and doing whatever was supposed to be the wrong things. That's in conflict with all the right things, which is what I learned through India – like getting up early, going to bed early, taking care of yourself and having some sort of spiritual quality to your life. I've always had this conflict."

He was at odds with himself, but who isn't? In that respect "living proof of all life's contradictions," as he put it, he resembles most of us. We recognise him as a kindred soul in his contradictions – and though his life was lived on a vast scale, he was unusually truthful, and in his songs much more explicit than we dare to be. He made it his mission to explore his contradictions in his own way, through his music. So, to say that he was one of the great musicians of his time – one of the most innovative guitarists ever, most imaginative songwriters – is to give only part of the story. "The quiet one," is the stereotypical description of the man – but he was on fire within. To make music that mattered over the years, to bring renewal with each work, he seemed determined to burn out one self after another.

"He had karma to work out," his widow, Olivia, is on the record as saying. "He wasn't going come back and be bad. He was going to be good and bad and loving and angry and everything all at once. You know, if someone said to you, 'okay, you can go through your life and you can have everything in five lifetimes, or you can have a really intense one and have it in one, and then you can go and be liberated,' he would have said, 'give me the one, I'm not coming back here.'"

I also think there's a stark difference between "contradiction" and "confusion". He wasn't confused; had he been he would have found it impossible to search and learn with such clear-sightedness. His friend and mentor Ravi Shankar said that George exhibited tyagi, a Sanskrit term for a feeling of non-attachment or renunciation. Shankar wondered how this aspect of enlightenment could have come so clearly to a worldly lad from Liverpool. It doesn't seem odd to me that this thoughtful man came to feel the sense of freedom bordering on exaltation that mendicants experience in non-attachment. But it is a notable, and noble, quality in a rock star to practice it, as George did.

We all feel that we could do a bit better in our lives; in the secret history of this imaginative soul, George was active in pursuing this path. Surely it arose in large part from his having had everything while still young. At 19 or 20 he was on top of the world – inspiring the world to sing and dance. Performing with The Beatles gave him joy – gave us all joy. But he did not see this exuberance as a final fulfilment; the very fact of The Beatles as a musical and financial phenomenon made him doubtful enough to begin to look for a higher meaning, and – after The Beatles – to go on looking. He knew he was living in the material world, but had he been so attached to it he would not have been able to look deeper into it.

Early in his life as a musician, towards the end of the explosive new sound of The Beatles (and much more than music, it was a seismic shift in popular culture), George found his way to India. Through music and meditation, and the mantras that he chanted until the very end of his life, he was drawn to an unselfish, and ultimately a more mystical view of the world. The man who could make a whole stadium rock began to see silence as another ideal. He has described himself as an idle, smirking, doodling student at school, and yet in India he became devout and studious, a reader of the swamis – and notably, of Swami Vivekananda.

What has become apparent in the decade since his death is the uncanny symmetry of George's life – a life lived to the fullest. What might have seemed random or impulsive in him while he lived, is, in retrospect, a pattern, part performance, part pilgrimage.

His saturation in the material world drove him to seek the spirit in things – and so his life seems a series of vanishings and reappearances, journeys there and back, and even the portraits of him that seem iconic are various, a progression of so many faces, his features, his hair, his posture – different in each one. Yet his gaze is unchanged, his eyes telling us that the same soul is inhabiting this body.

All this sounds solemn, but he was a man of subtle and often self-mocking humour. George was interested in many things beside music, and although music was his first love, he was vitalised by travel, movie-making, and car racing. Look at his friends – the Pythons Gilliam and Idle, Jackie Stewart, Billy Preston, Eric Clapton, Bob Dylan, Ravi Shankar: the funniest men on Earth, the fastest, his most brilliant contemporaries in music.

But equal to his passion for music, and his diverse and close friendships, was an overwhelming desire to get back to earth – literally so, to dig, to plant trees, to surround himself with flowers that he himself had grown. The most obvious characteristic of the houses that he built, or bought and fixed up in the course of his life, are the gardens he planned and planted. No matter how extraordinary the houses, the gardens he created around them surpassed the bricks and mortar. In George's case the gardens he made gave him the sense that he was living in isolation, on an island of his own making. "...it's great when I'm in my garden, but the minute I go out the gate I think: 'What the hell am I doing here?'"

"From the day I met him he was defiant," Olivia said, "and so determined that nothing was going to stop him from leaping as far as he could."

She was thinking of his words in the song "Run of the Mill": "How high will you leap?/ Will you make enough for you to reap it?/ Only you'll arrive – at your own made end/ With no one but yourself to be offended/ It's you that decides."

Note: You now... My immortal from Evanescence? For some reason, I was hearing that music, and my brain was like: "Hey! It sounds like nice and good music for you to do a Dukexiety, where Remus is the angst one!" Also didn't think too much about the plot, so... This is your warning. You now... My immortal from Evanescence? For some reason, I was hearing that music, and my brain was like: "Hey! It sounds like nice and good music for you to do a Dukexiety, where Remus is the angst one!" Also didn't think too much about the plot, so... This is your warning.

For once, his side of the imagination was... blank. Nothing, no monsters, no dark forest, no burned villagers, no dead bodies, no zombies, just the pure white, his castle and the guards gone, everything has gone. For once, his room was clean, no weird mucus left by his octopus, no blood splashed, just a black with green walls, his bed, and furniture.

He was sprawled on his bed looking at the ceiling, it had a purple night star decorated as he remembers why it was there.

"Remus... Do you think... That Thomas will accept me?"

"Oh, Vee... if he doesn't at least I do accept you. Here, let's cuddle looking at the ceiling."

"Oh! That is cute!"

"That night, where your insecurities were all around, you were so scared, that night I changed my room it was the night with purple and blue on the ceiling, bright stars. After that... I decided to let those night lamps there. It seemed to calm you down. But also... It remembered me that I helped you. That I was more than just Intrusive Thoughts..." He sighed tiredly.

He felt like he was fading into nothing, he did a mistake and for once he was blaming himself. For once he knew... That nothing would be back to what it was... Closing his eyes he turned on his stomach as he hugs his pillow. "I can still remember that..."

"Vee, please open the door."

"That is bad..." Janus said in a sigh, he knew that Paranoia was having a bad day, just... didn't think it would be that bad. Normally he would open up by now. "Virgil, please? Open the door."

"Vee..." Remus's voice was above a whisper. "Hey I know my brother is a dick, I know he meant everything he said because like me he is impulsive, it hurts a lot, but come on... I'm not him. I know better than him. I know I'm the last person you want to see now, but at least let Janus help you?" The reason Paranoia has been so broken right now was because of the second video he showed up. Roman was a dick. But right now? That didn't matter.

In a few seconds, they would hear a click and the door opening. "Okay..." Janus passed by the door getting inside. But for more than Remus wanted to get in, hold Virgil in his arm he couldn't right now. Anger bubbled as he steps back, a small smile as he looks at the door closing again. That was good enough for now.

His mind was weird, why he was remembering all those times?! They had good times as well! He knows he messed up but, why his mind was trying to comfort him with all the times he helped Virgil?!

"Hey bro" Roman voice's was outside his door, knocking. "Are you good there? Your side of imagination is still blank..." Liking or not, they still tried to be brothers, they still tried to get along, even though they were so much different and often argued for everything. Roman could be very a worried brother when he wanted.

"I'm fine... Just..." His voice died, everything seems to hurt so much, he just wanted to fade and disappear.

"Remus, if you don't get up and do something, I will tell him!" Roman's voice got desperate, as like that was the last string. Most because Remus was like that for a month now.

"NO!" Remus was surprised by how strong and loud his tone came out, coughing for that a couple of times. "Just no... I messed up. I..." He trailed off again.

"You know... He will figure out eventually. Just come on Remus. Get up. I will let some food here okay? Try to eat."

"Thank you..." That was all he could say before hearing Roman walk off. It was weird, but he guessed that it had something about not having monsters for Roman to adventure on the Imagination and not having the light or inspiration to work on something. Light...

"Remus your castle is so good." Virgil smiled as he looked around, he liked the place, it was different from the rest. Obviously, it was still Remus's way, the castle seemed more like a terror one, spider webs around the place, broken mirrors, black curtains, and as well white cloths in furniture that weren't used. "I liked it a lot!"

He always felt something warm and bright inside him when Virgil compliment's his creations. Was something good and he loved it. "Come-on then! Let me show the rest!"

He sighed as he finally got up from his bed, he honestly should eat something as opens his door, it was like Roman knew he wasn't going to eat right away because of what he saw? Was protein bars, a bottle of water, and an apple. He smiled at that as he gets the things inside starting to chew on that.

For once his mind was so blank, that he just stayed there doing nothing. Confused thoughts passing, memories sometimes nice others not so nice. A long sigh as he just throws himself on the bed again, as he finally gave up.

"You're moving with them?!" He didn't want to sound angry, but he was hurt.

"Like I have a choice! Thomas is in the process to move my room! He said he wanted to accept me... I can't change that Re." Virgil's tone was silent, he had ducked out because his fears got the best of him and he couldn't help, most because Virgil was shutting him down.

"But Roman hurt you! Like a LOT!"

"I know but I can't do anything Re..."

"You can! You can say no to Thomas. You can stay here!"

Silence. A long and sad silence.

"Remus that is wrong..." Virgil bitted his lower lips harshly as he talks.

"But you can! You can say to Thomas no, and stay with me! Stay with me and Dee. You don't need them! They never did you good till now, just because you tried to duck out they want to accept you?!"

Another silence, but this time Remus kept going. "They don't need you. Roman told this all the time, you weren't needed there. He didn't like you, so why are you doing this?!" He wasn't been logical, no he was saying things that he hoped would hurt the other, so Virgil would stay there...

It was a big mistake because it just pushed him far...

Tears were falling silently, as Virgil's face showed how hurt and disbelieve he was. "At least, they understand my decisions! At least they aren't trying to guilty me! Over something, I can't control! At least they are trying to change and love me! At least they aren't hurting me so I could stay with them! I thought... No... That is it. I'm leaving."

"Paranoia!"

"NO! I'm not that anymore. I'm Anxiety now."

Remus couldn't do anything to stop that, because he did a mistake... A huge big one.

He closed his eyes angry, it seemed like someone stabbed his heart, it seemed like someone cut him in all his body, but it wasn't real... What was that?

Laying down on his bed just looking at the ceiling, reviving memories of the past, feeling like his body is cut in all the places and directions like his veins exploded and blood was all over him. His head blank of everything, could he just fade and disappear? If he asked Thomas, would he kill him? Ah... How he wished that.

I've tried so hard to tell myself that you're gone But though you're still with me, I've been alone all along

Note: I may, or may not have a way or an idea to end this with a Happy ending. Just not sure if I want to... So let me know what you think.

4me4you features the artist Santiago Parra- ‘Spark of Fire’.

Artist: Santiago Parra

Recently, 4me4you had the privilege of immersing ourselves in the vibrant atmosphere of JD Malat Gallery, where the spotlight shone on the remarkable artist Santiago Parra.

Entitled "Spark of Fire," the exhibition serves as a testament to Parra's evolving artistic journey, presenting a captivating array of monochromatic paintings alongside his foray into a novel mode of expression.

Parra, driven by a desire to encapsulate intuition, emotion, and raw feeling within his art, eschews rationality in favour of a deeply instinctual approach. Each brushstroke, unfettered by conscious thought, breathes life into the canvas, inviting viewers to delve into a world shaped by pure creative impulse.

In the hands of an artist, ostensibly lifeless objects—a can of paint, a blank canvas, a paintbrush—spring to life, converging harmoniously to compose captivating works of art. The exhibition's title, "Spark of Fire," draws a poignant parallel to mythological narratives, evoking the transformative power of energy in awakening inert matter. Just as Prometheus breathed life into clay sculptures and bestowed upon humanity the divine gift of fire, Parra infuses his compositions with a vitality that transcends their material origins.

Within the confines of "Spark of Fire," each painting serves as a vessel for the retelling of primordial tales, inviting viewers to traverse landscapes imbued with the ebb and flow of nature's forces. From the tumultuous depths of the ocean to the dynamic interplay of form and movement, Parra's works encapsulate the essence of creation's genesis.

With an uninhibited flourish, Parra unleashes a torrent of creative energy onto vast canvases, his technique ranging from cascading torrents of paint to frenetic, calligraphic brushstrokes. The resulting series stands as a testament to the artist's boundless creativity and unrestrained expression, inviting viewers to embark on a journey of discovery through the boundless realm of artistic possibility.

A Case In Stubborn Belief

I don’t feel like I’ve reassessed my theories properly since things started going to hell in khux. The benefit to this torturous slog of releases is it allows me to adjust my mindset and theories in real time so as to have a healthy theorist mindset. In other words I use the time between releases to justify my theories and dig my heels in. Hahaaa-- so like, let me preface this by saying that there is plenty of reason to hold onto seemingly jossed theories and evidence because...

1.) Multiple things can be correct at the same time. 

2.) Red herrings are frequently employed. 

Now. I have, in the past summed up my thoughts in this 3-prong Theory for Khux post which is a little dated but subscribes to three ideas.

The Master of Masters is the Author of Fate

Ava is the Traitor 

Ven harbors a split personality.

And while recent events have definitely had me going to the drawing board. I still kinda believe in all three ideas. Let’s work this out. 

Ven as the Murderer

In my original Split-Personality Theory, I proposed that the Darkness within Ven was suppressed to the point that it gained sentience and acted with a will of its own. As Re:mind supports, Vanitas refers to existing long before their split. 

The primary take away was, regardless of who did the dirty deed of killing Strelitzia, Ventus was innocent because he lacked agency. This is still true. 

Now, it seemed as though this theory was disproven in last months flashback of the murder. Ven is clearly coerced by this physical shadowy Darkness to go to the scene of the crime, from which the Darkness strikes Strel down, orders Ven to pick up the Leader Book aaaand physically takes on the appearance of Ava. 

All interactions with this force suggested that Darkness was an external force simply using Ven as a pawn in the scene. Darkness had to order Ven to pick up the book. Darkness manifested separate to Ven. This isn’t something coming from within Ven, it’s simply grabbing hold of him. 

But then we have to consider the entire context of the scene. Ven was planted in the Leader position by Darkness. Darkness set it up so there was some foundation of legitimacy with Ava being seen with him. It was orchestrated specifically for Ven’s benefit... but to what end? Ven’s a pawn sure, but if the goal is getting a hold of a Union Leader, an external force of Darkness shouldn’t have to go through a very risky murder plot to make room. If the goal is to sow discord among the Leaders then killing someone close and framing one of them is all you need to do. If the goal is BOTH then why Ven? His presumable innocence? Is he just convenient scape goat?

This is where I think this months update comes into play. Darkness, spawns from Ven. Darkness has been hiding inside Ven. Ven is the Trojan Horse. While Ven blames himself for the death of Strel, he asserts that “It’s not me”. Darkness isn’t Ven. But that could be wishful thinking on his part...

That Darkness, no matter how external it behaves, is Ven’s. While not behaving like a split personality in the conventional way, the force is essentially Ven’s darkness given autonomy and sentience while still bound to his heart. That Darkness becomes Vanitas. Same idea different manner of arrival.

Is Darkness Legion?

“You’re finally aware, of us.”

In line with this speculation, this line could be referring to Darkness and Ven in the plural. Vanitas was very fixated on Ven and himself being the same being. I don’t see why Darkness can’t have that same attachment.

But if he’s NOT referring to himself I guess I have to talk about my Author of Fate theory.

This line would then suggest that Darkness is most likely one of those monsters in human form MoM was talking about wayyyy back in Cornerstones of Rebirth. In my Figurative Language post, I use MoM’s potential as a disillusioned author of the entire KH reality as a means to interpret his words more figuratively. 

“Well, if you ask if the darkness they fought was comprised of monsters… maybe so. They looked the same as us, so it’s a bit different from now.”

In my interpretation these beings of Darkness were a summation of the darkness of human nature causing endless conflict. It was MoM’s way of explaining that he is who he is because he’s tired of senseless evil. This is where I think 2 things can be correct at the same time. Darkness can be a manifestation of a pure force of evil similar to the heartless AND be a figurative reflection of MoM’s perspective on humanity. After all, the theory postulates that MoM created everything. It’s a reflection of that “Real Evil” creeping into things.  So is this force which I believe born from Ven a part of some kind of new race of Darkness? Yes and No. Yes because I think MoM’s interpreting a realistic evil through the creatures of the series. Whatever impulses formed Darkness inside Ven, is the same tendencies that MoM witnessed in his youth. No-- because the Darkness by virtue of being in this reality gain a form of autonomy that I don’t think MoM’s story is actually depicting. Literal Monsters in human skin basically detach humanity from the consequences of Evil. And while that’s not the case in reality, Mom’s interpretation paved a way for that to be the case in KH cause he’s the author. 

Got really meta there. In my speculation, MoM is coping with the helplessness of reality. Poor guy. 2020 sucks.

What about Ava?

That’s the question isn’t it? Most of my Ava speculation is based on her behavior leading up to the end of Khx. The suggestions from that line of thought haven’t changed. I mean, nothings really modified the implications of Ava clashing with Luxu and starting the first war. If we take into account that MoM manipulated the Foretellers into their own destruction and Ava potentially discovered this, then her actions would make sense. Even with recent developments we know that Ava took action to defy MoM’s plan by changing who received the BoP. Ava is the Traitor. 

So she is actively trying to circumvent this written fate... and all she succeeded in doing was swapping around a book? Yeah, that’s not enough. 

My original theory speculates that Ava is trying to sabotage the entire Data-Daybreak town because it’s a part of MoM’s plan. And while Luxu’s Secret Report in KH3 has wording that suggest that the Data-Daybreak Town is destined to never have the Keyblade War, meaning that the manner needed to sabotage that is to.... cause the Keyblade War. So the way to ‘save’ her Dandelion’s from being MoM’s play things is to trigger the Keyblade War that they wanted to avoid, all so that she can attempt to remove them from MoM’s clutches (I further speculate this is because she doesn’t understand the extent of MoMs ownership over fate and therefore thinks its possible to defy fate enough to escape him).

So this puts her in the perfect motive to do whatever she can to make sure shit hits the fan and war breaks out. It’s an ironic little reversal cause once again Ava is becoming MoM in order to ‘stop’ MoM and she is really the fool here. This desperation might have her joining forces with some unsavory forces and pushing for some... drastic measures (like permitting murder!). It’s all for the greater good of course and she needs to free them from being in MoM’s creation. 

This is why I still think, Ava is a benefactor/ accomplice to Darkness. I think she ultimately gave it access to the Dandelion ranks and orchestrated a deal that would ensure the escape of some Dandelions (through the Arc business with Maleficent) while also the assured destruction of the Data-Worlds that imprisoned them. This is because of the Darkness’s actions with Maleficent and paving a way out of the Data World which seems counterintuitive to the actions of Darkness through Ven, sowing discord and killing little sisters. Sure there could be more than one with more than one agenda but this can come together if you’re stubborn enough. So yeah. Ava is still in cohorts with Darkness. I really want her to be a well intentioned extremist don’t I? 

---

Anyway. I am not so deluded that I can’t accept my theory being wrong. It’s okay. I’m not like... seriously hung up about it. But, not only do I think these 3 ideas are just insanely compelling, I DO believe that everything is a monthly slow confirmation here. One week seems to destroy an idea and the next resuscitates it. It’s incredible how they don’t just drop every plot twist at once. As someone trying to write a compelling mystery in my KH fic, I am impressed with how this has stretched out over years. 

I’ll let you know when I’ve really given up. Until then, I’ll just start digging my plot on this hill. Read my theory master list while I do that.
