Ricky heel again and Hobbs questioning the people he surrounded himself with…ooooo you wanna reunite so badly you wanna reunite so baaad ooooooo PLEASE PLEAAASE

when dudes are guys

well my abigail hobbs hot take is that she understands alana as a shade of her mother (kind but blind, ineffectual and powerless), hannibal as a shade of her father (the monster who protects her and kills her in equal measures), and will as a mirror of herself (which is why she is repulsed and frightened by him despite all his efforts to connect with her)

I was reading through my calvin and hobbes books and found my new favorite strip

-The Iliad of Homer, BOOK XVIII

-Fool's Fate, Robin Hobb

I think it's so funny that throughout the episodes that focused on Abigail and GJH, they were always like "Hobbs' victims all fit the same profile, the same hair color, eye color, height, etc so they look like his daughter" and then when Will is giving a lecture and this is a picture of one of the victims:

Girl Abigail's eyes are blue wtf were you doing on Hobb's laundry list

Abigail dropping and shattering a teacup in Hannibal's kitchen in Œuf, foreshadowing the symbolic teacup being shattered in Mizumono.

oh brennan lee mulligan and your making characters that are so deeply intensely loyal and don’t hesitate to use up all of their abilities all of their selves for others. you get me 💙

poe thoughts and scribbles for my aching soul

i have to say its a strange experience taking classes on branding and marketing while being vehemently anticapitalist and scorning the economic system

if kaycee were to be obsessed with mags i fully believe that it would be because of how broken the mox system is. shes drawn to leshy cus his is very broken + hes the first to take control of the game.

mags would fuck with her/her body by offering to change her to be a more "desirable" body methinks. fucked up girl boy thing wants no tits? you got it.

i think he goes along with her body augmentation in the game and on her avatar, until she dies and he possibly drags her in the game?? idk. mags then continues the augmentation as she continues to improve his mox system. i think he values her more because she can actually improve and understand the cards better than his actual pupils, maybe he even axes the idea of a trial for her because she's so good. or perhaps her trial is similar to james' in that she has to go under hundreds upon thousands of changes to her body, experiments to see the limits of mag's own powers.

-cyberflashback

YES 100% WITH THE MOX THING i agree that would be her biggest draw in trying to fix/mod his game!!

oohhh my god i love Magnificus offering his power to essentially give her a character creator because seeing what she does to herself in Leshy's domain, she 100% would jump at the chance to give herself magickal augmentation to hilariously stupid degrees, especially if its to herself and not just her avatar

i think mags would be the type to agree that one of higher power has the right to look the part but.. she can be a bit much

regardless, she probably undergoes augmentation for purposes other than aesthetics, to test his own powers like you said but to also help expand her mind and help her get some sort of divine inspiration for further additions to their game..

i love fictional characters who’ve been dead since the beginning but clawed their way back towards the living
