[9]
EXCUSE ME LET'S SEE THAT AGAIN
FOR SCIENCE
AH YES
AH YES LOOK AT THIS WONDERFUL PIECE WE HAVE TO VIEW HERE TODAY
LET’S ALL HAVE A MOMENT OF APPLAUSE
THE MOMENT OF CLOSURE I WASN’T ENTIRELY SURE WE WOULD BE GETTING????
If Kyle had disappeared offscreen never to be seen again, I would have complained absolutely, but I would have understood, considering how everyone else in this conflict has SUCH HIGHER stakes! How do you find room for Kyle when your opponents are our beloved Syaoran and Evil Wolverine himself?
AND YET HERE WE ARE
A GIFT JUST FOR US
KYLE RONDART DEAD ON SCREEN
A BIG DRAMATIC MOMENT JUST FOR KYLE
AND IT’S NOT EVEN ABOUT HIM
HE WASN’T EVEN IMPORTANT
HE WAS JUST THE DECOY
COMPLETELY MEANINGLESS TO THE VERY END
AND YET WE STILL GET TO SEE HIM GO, WITH FURY :D
It’s everything I could have wanted.
NO WAIT IT GOT BETTER!
In his final moment Kyle UNDERSTANDS.
He KNOWS now that he was only there to be used. Like everyone else, he was just a tool to Evil Wolverine and nothing more.
He was only there in the first place to unknowingly take the hit. Evil Wolverine not just allowed him to die but intended him to die.
Kyle dies knowing Evil Wolverine never gave a shit about him, and let him be murdered on purpose without defending him.
WHAT A GIFT TO ME PERSONALLY.
Unfortunately I suppose that means the mirror isn’t actually destroyed after all, but still! I’ll take it! And the shadow Evil Wolverine hovering in the background framed by Kyle’s falling blood is PEAK design.

Hi it's just to let you know that the official romanization of Revaan's name is Raverne ! Also they have romanized Baul's name to Baur !
Twst coming back at us again with the least expected romanization! thank you everybody (oh god my inbox) (no it's great, I literally asked for this and the reactions have been INCREDIBLE, thank you all!)
I do like Raverne though, I think it's got a nice fancy sound to it! (I had kinda suspected it was going to be an R instead of an L, so the fact that it's SO close to Laverne except for that is hilarious to me personally.) and Dragoneye Duke is honestly probably the best translation for his title, I wasn't envying the localizers that one. :') Baur instead of Baul I was NOT expecting, but in retrospect I think his name's supposed to be a reference to the Bauru crocodile, so that actually makes way more sense!
someone else also said Meleanor has become Maleanor, which is the REALLY weird one to me, because I was so surprised it was written as Mel instead of Mal in the first place?! oh god no I can't decide which one I like better. 😭 (I wonder if they might change it to Mal...they have made romanization changes before) (like I remember House of Distraction being corrected to House of Destruction in Playful Land) (I did check and she's still Mel for now, but I dunno, they might Mal her up and some point and save me from having to make a decision about which one to use) (HECK I CAN'T DECIDE)
uhhhh thank you for letting me ramble about anime names, let's just say MONOGRAMMED SWEATERS FOR EVERYONE

|| part 1 || part 2 || part 3 || part 4 coming soon... ||
so, did you know ace was offered a position on the warlords that he turned down? well i mean... if he had accepted, it would follow that the revs would take more interest in him, yeah? i mean, it is their job to keep tabs on the government, you'd presume that extends to warlords as well.
and as far as warlords go, fire fist is interesting.
if only sabo could work out why... then maybe the man would finally get out of his head.
EDIT: textless versions of the pages can be found here!

A strange find from the local recycle shop, an oddly seal-like plane with a dog pilot who can sit inside! Made by Clifford B McGuire, who upon searching seem to make a lot of pilot/aviator animals.
Process of cleaning them up below...
The sealplane caught my eye in the big toy bin first! A friend looked it up and discovered it’s meant to come with a pilot, who I found hiding way at the bottom of the bin. They made me laugh so I had to save them, either for me or for somebody.
The sealplane had a couple of stains on its wings and body, while the pilot had a very stained shirt and torn tie, and was just a bit scruffy looking. Apparently the sealplane is supposed to have a couple of engines under the wings too, oh well! Guess it just glides now.
First I unpicked all of pilot dog's clothes to clean and fix separately! The different materials would need cleaning different ways, especially felt which doesn’t wash well.
To help the hat hold its circular shape better, I turned it inside out and trimmed down the edge of the seam on the inside, then added a circle of foam to help keep it flat.
I decided not to wash this part, I just trimmed off the bobbly and tufty areas on the surface of the felt to neaten it up.
Dog had a hole in his neck so I stitched that up too. Actually I stitched all the way around his neck just for some extra strength.
Wash time! Using some warm water and a little dish soap, I gently scrubbed the sealplane's yellow spots without soaking it entirely, then brushed clear water through to rinse. I avoided scrubbing the felt pieces.
Dog actually wasn't too dirty under the clothes! I just gave him a little bit of cleaning, mainly on the light areas.
Since the shirt looked like normal shirt material, I tried soaking it in normal shirt stain remover! It worked really well! (Also it looked cool in the cup because a rainbow was shining through it while it fizzed!)
All the parts hung on the line to dry. Flying! Dog pilot must have pressed the eject button.
Once dried, I stitched the clothes back on to the pilot. I used the remaining piece of his tie as a template to cut out two new pieces of black felt which tie together.
Sealplane’s printed lettering was lifting up in a few spots, so I used a teeny tiny dot of superglue on the end of a pin to just dab under the letters and pressed them back down with my nail. I trimmed stray tufts off the felt around them too.
It would have been nice to touch up the flaked paint on the plane’s zipper too, but I don’t really have the right stuff for that, so I’m calling them done!
