In your post about the Darkling where you listed your opinions of him (first impression, impression now, favorite vs least favorite thing, etc) you said how if you had to choose a least favorite quality it would be his grumpiness (especially in RoW). Since I refuse to touch that cursed duology if it’s okay, may you explain what you mean? I know we get some of the Darkling’s POV but that’s pretty much all I know. Could this entire trait of his be a product of Bardugo’s retconning habit or is it something more?
Aha. I see you're practicing self-care too, dear anon. 😌
Here are some examples:
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
From his POVs we can see that Aleksander is very pragmatic but also bad-tempered and bitter but that's completely understandable.
He has just been resurrected and:
1) Encountered a Saint that he detests.
2) Found his country to be in the worst state possible. Flanked by enemies and ready to attack.
3) Oh and let's not forget that devastating blight! ☝️
4) His captors have treated him like shit and put him under inhuman conditions.
5) Saw the woman he loved live a life that she doesn't deserve, being a shell of her former self and married to a man that he hates and considers worthless.
6) He's all alone. No Baghra, no Alina, no allies, no soldiers. He has to start from all over and has found himself surrounded by idiots (but even so he feels the need to protect them).
The fact that I find his grumpiness kinda annoying is because I as a person have been surrounded by grumpy people all my life so I can't help but find it unattractive and bothersome.
But then again, Aleksander has a really valid reason for being this way. It's very possible that he took this sarcastic attitude from his mother. After all, they had spent so many years together that Aleksander really adopted most of her traits, unwillingly or not. But I also believe he's that way because he has lived for too long.
He's immortal. He has done everything and seen everything, has seen people being kind and cruel, predictable or unpredictable. His experiences have only made him more bitter but that's also because he hasn't seen any positive changes or results from his constant battle against the persecution or how Ravka and the Grisha have no regard for him or don't notice his efforts at all.
Anyway, he's bitter about many things. In RoW he's that way for the reasons I explained in the beginning but, as a whole, he's resentful for a bunch of reasons that include his immortality and its consequences, the loss of people he loved, his strive to be seen and appreciated and the horrors he has witnessed.

I think today’s encounter with Ron could be a hallucination but the only thing that makes me hesitate to agree is Ron’s info on the federation. Info that we as an audience know is probably accurate but that q!Bad would have no actual way of knowing. He can’t hallucinate new information. Also, said information was exactly what he didn’t want to hear. If he was hallucinating a fantasy world where he didn’t accidentally kill/eat Ron, it doesn’t make a whole lot of sense to me for his brain to include made-up federation info that actively upsets him. If it was a scary, negative hallucination maybe - it wasn’t though. Buuuut you never know I suppose. Either way I’ll enjoy it.

thinking abt how essential it is to my characterization of barry allen that he’s insecure abt not being able to keep his scars as a speedster, symbolizing his lack of touch with reality + his relationship with his body and humanity + his inability to live in the present bc his anatomy itself refuses to let the memories linger, how he’s desperate to hold onto the past bc he’s constantly reminded of how fleeting life is, how he’ll slow real time down at superspeed to experience smth for just a little longer, how his body can’t keep score so his mind compensates
and then i draw him with lightning bolt stetchmarks and top surgery scars anyway bc i think they look cool </3

in some ways (very few…) i do see how its cute ari.. ill really give it to you but. he also does look froggy. its a fact and im glad you at least dont deny it <33 but my issue isn’t necessarily just with gojo - gege has done it to yuuji as well 😔 the only person kept true to their core design is Sukuna because gege is the biggest sukuna fucker of them all
all jokes aside ari - i absolutely love the flowers!! the discourse about whether it means death and finality or rebirth really appeals to me (although im not sure we’ll know anytime soon with how the manga is going..)
i love the colour and the symbolism of the snow and the whole somber more human side of him - straying away from his whole “god” persona. i genuinely LOVE the whole idea of it and i think Gege cooked he just.. could’ve marinated a bit longer s’all
……………………………………….
okay i forgive you 😔😔 i might not understand the hate + i still think he’s genuinely gorgeous and handsome and not just cute + i love gege’s art always and forever but i understand where you’re coming from. i accept you. here is a cookie to commemorate the mending of our bond 🍪
BUT !!!! i’m at least happy that we agree on how good the cover is symbolically….. the cold colours of the background and snow are such a nice contrast to the flowers :’3 and i think it’s so sick and twisted of akutami to make gojo’s skin a blue colour…. as if he’s passed away…… it all just . appeals to me a bunch!!!! you put it so perfectly anon

OP: Just because I have my problems regarding Claude’s writing in GW doesn’t mean I dislike him.
Genius: Well, if you REALLY liked Claude, and if you were THAT upset about [extremely poorly set up event], then OBVIOUSLY you should have been equally upset about [event that was set up infinitely better in literally every way]. I am very smart.

#560: Hogwarts Inquires - III
That's hit me.
MC was worried Solomon might turn her and Sebastian in to the Headmaster and they'd be expelled.
But what would Solomon's evidence be and why would Black ever care without any caught-on-scene for anything really, especially, when Solomon is easily annoyed by simply everything about his nephew.
Besides, even if he would have somehow convinced Black to look into the matter, who could guarantee him that his supposed wish to come true -- if we assume MC was right about him turning them in and that he wouldn't back down on his word (which I believe to be the actual truth, as Solomon was trying to put down / kill the both of them, MC and Sebastian, rather than to have them expelled or worse, sent to Azkaban; that's… the supposed sense of mercy this man has is absolutely vile).
But. Behind MC were Fig, as her mentor (and he would never let the opportunity of finishing his and Miriam's work slip away), also a person of trust to Black, and Sharp, as someone really worried about MC and who I think to be allied with Fig, therefore in the know to some great extent, and subsequently interested in keeping MC out of trouble, at least, of this particular sort, for Fig's sake.
Howevor, even if the toughest defense imaginable would be breached by sheer stubbornness of this man, even after a tactical retreat to Dinah&Matilda duo, what would be the evidence and why would Solomon be sure, that knowing his temper, whatever it was Sebastian took possession of was worth a legillimens from any investigator or, if Black wouldn't let anyone in, Sharp or Dinah.
You know. People who are entangled with Eleazar's inquiries about goblin activities and are likely in support of whatever party that fights goblins back. They wouldn't ever not to condemn the usage of Unforgivables, howevor, but would they cater to Solomon's vile wishes? Doubtful. They'd rather fight him off than let him do justice himself because killing someone for the sake of THEIR OWN good -- what really the fuck is wrong with you Solomon.
Back to evidence.
The Book could've easily be hidden by a third party.
The Relic, too.
But. If we're to jump forward to the dungeon, where it was already too late to change Sebastian's mind and Solomon came across The Evidence…
He destroyed the only evidence he had on them right away… The destruction of the Book would be the only a matter of Anne getting inside the dungeon and, enraged by the extent of it all and by how far Sebastian was ready to dwell, would have still casted Incendio.
The only solid ground would be the usage of Unforgivables. Which Black secretly or not so secretly do not condemn; he doesn't judge MC when she uses any of them in front of him. Meaning, Solomon's only option would be going straight to the Ministry, as Black would likely approve of that Imperio, but.
Given how reluctant was the Ministry. Given the fact Sebastian hadn't harmed anyone. Solomon doesn't have A N Y grounds to imprison him or convince anyone of Sebastian's danger to anyone. He doesn't have a chance on MC either, or he'd face Fig, who can contact the Minister directly at seemingly any time, and Sharp, likely being a man who might have a few things to say to anyone who're live in a disbelief of any cure existence and although it's not a crime, who're also induce that disbelief on unwilling or dependent others.

trying to crack ep3 is SO hard. wuvvy. hob. what is going on in ur little heads
#like the best i can get at for wuvvy is#1) she doesnt smell smoke and thinks of hob as a person who gave rue cause to write their letter / led them on#2) she DOES smell smoke and realizes hob could pull rue away from their role (destabilizing/dismantling her role) so she tries to deter him#3) same as 2 but she is genuinely trying to kill him?#4) she is wounded by rue but sublimates her anger through hob as the cause of their actions towards her#5) she is wounded by rue bc she is suddenly aware that they are capable of seeking something else and she acts on impulse to hold them back#5.5) i have to think shes acting on impulse. wuvvy is calculating but not like this#6) she is wounded bc she is rue's protector and she does not know how to protect them#and 7) hob really pissed her off in that conversation#knick is both harder and easier to understand#my guess is: he wanted to apologize to rue earlier but chose not to out of fear of being scorned by his superiors#and now wuvvy appears to demonstrate the failure of that choice and the apparent worsening of rue's injury#he is guilty but then cannot get wuvvy to provide a path for remediation and hob NEEDS someone else to tell him what to do#how to resolve the guilt#bc if someone gives him the structure by which to act no one can blame him for doing it wrong#instead wuvvy insists on the guilt. perhaps she sees him as a rake perhaps a political enemy perhaps a threat of a more personal nature--#--she thinks he mocks her. she mocks him. it hurts. he chooses the only structure he knows which is satisfaction through violence#but i dont know what provoked them. why either of them react so so strongly and why the scene escalates so quickly#so uh if u have some answer for me.... hmu
