crimeboys coffee shop au where tommy is a barista and wilbur is a customer, but the reason they initially become friends isn’t personalities or anything. instead, tommy (astoundingly bad barista) realizes that the only customer who doesn’t spit out the coffee is wilbur (can’t taste). tommy is just happy someone is finally enjoying the drinks he makes and wilbur (starving artist) is happy the coffee is so cheap here (it’s because everyone else demands refunds). eventually wilbur brings techno and phil, and they smile and enthusiastically compliment tommy’s coffee to his face, before “secretly” dumping it into a plant and watching in horror as a previously healthy succulent dies within seconds

#the government has tried to recruit tommy 7 times btw they want to weaponize his terrible coffee and make him a member of the CIA #but he's too loud + annoying for that so it never ends up happening #tommyinnit #wilbur soot #dream smp #mcyt #crimeboys #this post is scheduled! sorry!#1k+

byakuya togami is someone who suffered through a competition that didn't recognize family ties or status, and so in the events of thh he believes he exists as a being outside of the game - not that he thinks he's not a participant, but he's more like someone who is above all the others. someone who's seen this scenario before and knows how it goes, and can know the characters well enough to predict all the plot twists. his actions of chapter 2 are exactly for the reason he said; to make things more interesting, to purposely throw a wrench into the investigation and raise the stakes for everyone, himself included, because he is someone who exists outside the spheres of existence for all these people. he never doubted that he wouldn't have been able to save himself at the end of it, because the characters - as bumbling as they were - would have figured it out. he can manipulate the corpse because it is a doll to him, because chihiro was never a 'real' person in his eyes. and neither was anyone else.

(even kyoko and makoto were characters, albeit annoying, observant ones. the ones that looked out of the pages and back at the reader, that you can't help but see parts of yourself in, flaws and all, until they look back at you and point out all the flaws you never noticed in yourself. they're always surprising him, being unpredictable, and it makes this game feel less like a contrived theater play and more like a real competition).

what chapter 4 does is it destroys those conceptions. aoi literally slaps him into reality, because she should have been just another character beneath him, outside of his realm of existence, someone who never should have been able to even dream of interacting with him in such away. he can really get hurt here. he doesn't get shaken up by it, but it irks him. he thinks he knows everything about everyone involved, because for his life up until that point, he's had to learn and know, had to roughly understand the thoughts and drives of the common masses so they can be manipulated and the beliefs and motives of people like him so he could outdo his siblings.

but then during the trial, he gets surprised, he gets proven wrong, and he doesn't understand, and it needs to be explained to him by someone he previously considered lesser. because despite everything that he's done and accomplished, he has never tried to understand the meaning of human connection and just how far people might be willing to go for the sake of those bonds - and without that understanding, he is no better than any of the others around him.

#byakuya togami #danganronpa #(gazes through lens of orv). man.....#reccommend reading omniscient reader's viewpoint to anyone btw. top ten things that changed my brainwaves of all time #byakuya togami you are a terrible terrible person. i want to inspect you under a microscope #this is also part of why tonaegiri is so sososoososo important to me btw. fyi. if you cared #kyoko is someone who thinks she knows the meaning of human bonds. hence her comforting makoto post-sayaka's death about the 11037 #but makoto is the one who is most familiar with it all bc unlike kyoko and byakuya he hasn't been betrayed up to that point by his family #and so he CAN bring himself to understand what love trust and mutual understanding can do to someone #makoto naegi ultimate son of a normal healthy family #my thoughts

kavinsky's death is actually the closing arc in a great tragedy to me bc his actions throughout the story are mostly just him practically begging for someone to be on his side, to care about him, to even just look at him. his father tried to kill him, his mother is completely uninterested. he can dream himself as many people as he wants, but they will only ever think of him because he made them to do so. the dream pack are just physical manifestations of his desire to not be alone in the world, to have someone, anyone, connected to him. he so desperately tries to draw some sort of emotion out of ronan, good bad or ugly, because the intense similarities they share mean that he's the only person who might be willing to look long enough to see him. and when it doesn't work, when he realizes it can't, that this world is not for him and he is not going to be a part of it in a way that involves anyone else, he decides that everyone is going to look at least this once. they will all see the finale if nothing else. genuinely doomed from the start. and how truly devastating that is in comparison to the core group the story focuses on, characters that even at their lowest and darkest and meanest and absolute worst have others there with them. characters that always have someone looking for them. dying is a boring side of a life that has nothing inside of it.

#4th of July got me this year girls (gender neutral)#also I'm contractually obligated to mention that he was so so funny #a few of his strengths:#1. hilarious #2. leader of ronsey nation #3. thrower of parties that involve fun for the whole family (minus the dream battle and suicide that one time)#but actually tho why do I feel like they mentioned like. families going to those parties.#anyways I'm getting SOOOOOO off track #did someone say trc famous adjective lonesome #and when u think abt the fact one of his worst acts was taking Matthew.... someone he KNEW ronan cared about above all #ohhhhh OWWWWW #like yeah obviously that was terrible and evil of him I'm not saying he's innocent or even nessecarily good #I'm just saying that he's fucking tragic #like so desperate for someone to look that he doesn't even care what he has to do to make it happen #this took me like 1.5 hrs to write btw I had so many things I wanted to say but it's almost midnight and I want to post it on His Day #the raven cycle #joseph kavinsky #the dream theives #kavinsky #trc kavinsky

Imo the biggest problem with the internet is that, between the ages of 13 and 25, your brain turns into electric mush that's wrong most of the time and the internet gives all those people megaphones. As someone who spent my entire teenagerhood and young adulthood on tumblr I've voiced some of the nastiest, most incorrect opinions you've ever seen. Next time you see something that makes you angry maybe stop to wonder if you're talking to a fully formed person or a lump of emotional hormonal mush

#btw if you're currently between 13 and 25 I love you so much and your feelings are real and I agree everything IS distressing and terrible #its not your fault and you deserve to have that megaphone #this post is about grown ass people spending all their time arguing

Thistle Law

The most extreme, violent interpretation of the Warrior Code, initially founded by Thistleclaw near the end of the Campaign Era, with its first implementation defining the beginning of the Slash-and-Burn Period.

One of three distinct Clan ideologies, next to Fire Alone and Traditionalism.

A guide to its origin, the parable associated with it, its principles, and most importantly, my authorial intentions with it in the Bonefall Rewrite. Seen a couple of questions about it, so I think this’ll help clarify.

Origin

Extreme interpretations of the Code go back as far as the founding of the clans themselves, but the roots of Thistle Law trace back to the Exile of SkyClan. Justifying the loss of an entire clan included cracking down on medicine cats and quashing a rebellion, and the ‘clan pride tide‘ added FOUR new laws to the Warrior Code.

The following wars and conflicts in the Chivalric Period further contributed to xenophobic sentiment in the Clans, with each one vying for supremacy over the others, branching out to attack non-Clan cats when there were brief stints of ‘peace’. Thistleclaw merely gave these ideas a name while educating his apprentice, using thistles as a metaphor.

Tigerclaw then went on to tell the story to his clanmates, to his own apprentices, and at gatherings to his future allies who told it to their own clanmates. Though the details of the story changed at times, the takeaway is constant;

Other cats must die, so yours can stay strong.

The Parable of the Thistle

The story goes that Thistleclaw brought Tigerpaw out to a massive, thorny bull thistle. He pointed out that the other plants were dying around it, but the flowers stood tall and proud. Thistleclaw explained the thistle was killing the plants around it to have more room to grow, and then cruelly commanded that Tigerpaw try to destroy it.

By the time it was done, Tigerpaw was covered in scratches and the sun was setting. All the way home, he tried to shake the thistlefluff out of his fur and forget the painful experience. The seasons turned, and one year later when Tigerclaw was a young warrior, Thistleclaw led him down a path lined with young, thorny leaves.

There, in a sea of green spikes, the thistle was standing as tall and as proud as the day Tigerpaw shredded it.

In killing every other plant in the area, the thistle had given itself room to come back stronger. The fluff that clung to Tigerpaw’s fur became new growth. Around them was an entire clearing of thistles, ready to burst into a wall of flowers and seeds.

Thistleclaw asked if Tigerclaw would dare to try again, and remembering how his last battle with the weed ended with scratches as deep as claw marks, admitted that he would rather be a thistle than fight one.

(Little did Ivypaw know, the beautiful field in which she meets Hawkfrost was completely strangled by flowering thistles.)

Principles

Depending on the exact time period and the cat it takes root in, Thistle Law can look different. For examples, Brokenstar’s goal was to drive every Clan out of the forest except ShadowClan, where Tigerstar’s aim was to annex every clan into TigerClan and enforce a standard of purity.

Incarnations of Thistle Law tend to share these principles,

The Code Hardens The calling card of Thistle Law is a stricter, more violent interpretation of the Warrior Code. The harsher laws are emphasized, such as the Law of Loyalty and the Right of the Challenge, while softer ones are downplayed or dropped entirely, like the Law of Honor and the Queen’s Rights.

Extreme Xenophobia Against outsiders, against cats of other clans, against half-clan cats. Thistle Law sets itself apart from Traditionalism for becoming willing to enforce some sort of purity.

Hierarchy Becomes Rigid The social power of medicine cats, deputies, and elders is suppressed. The leader is raised as the ultimate authority, even if that leader isn’t the Clan’s -star.

There Is No ‘Pointless’ Death The Clans are a battle culture, but a good battle is still fought for a reason. When tides turn to Thistle Law, fighting is the goal AND the means. To live is to battle, to kill is to win, and a warrior’s purpose is to die at war.

Each incarnation likely contains each point in varied amounts and tosses other ideas into the mix, but the name of the game remains the same-- and it springs from the taproot of Thistle Law.

Intentions

Thistle Law is what fascism looks like in Clan culture. I approach this using Umberto Eco’s 1995 essay Ur-Fascism as my primary reference. Ur-fascism is a ‘fuzzy‘ concept that looks very different depending on the exact society it springs from, mixing and matching several symptoms in varying degrees of severity.

So, in adapting this, I had to simplify a very complicated topic. I wanted to keep the antifascist theory recognizable, while still following canon events and creating an engaging rewrite.

So for simplicity sake, even if a clan might have technically called their own version of Thistle Law something else, I use this name to address it.

#tw fascism #fascism #politics #Bonefall Rewrite #Thistle Law #Thistleclaw #Tigerpaw #As a side note I really gotta finish this post I have about locations in the Dark Forest #Because I actually plan to make it the inverse of StarClan territory where all the BAD landmarks end up there #Like how StarClan still has fourtrees? The DF has the bonehill #And the thistle field #And the 5th oak #And the old river but the water is always flooded #Hope this clarifies btw feel free to @me with any other questions about thistle law this doesn't make clear #I don't want to get into MORE theories on fascism though btw unless you have a specific rewrite event suggestion #I like Eco's essay because it's easy to reference #I would prefer to spend my time reading more terrible cat books and visit theory at my own pace lmao

To me personally malistaire is the funniest and most pathetic villain wizard101 has ever had AND I MEAN THAT SINCERELY!!! Between doomed children who have been manipulated, groomed, and isolated into becoming products of their environments, someone scorned who has been punished unfairly by having your biological heart torn out your chest and turning your children and all of reality against you to satiate their own ego, a nonhuman entity so powerful and so clueless they unintentionally threaten the lives of everyone around them, Malistaire FELL DOWN BRO. Like yeah you're bitchless now. You and me both. Get in line. Everyone in this room is bitchless. We are ALL living that ✨💅🏾💃🕺 Single Life™. You are a middle-aged man. Cope

#this post is lighthearted btw JELAJWODJTU i aint actually mad #but like...... malistaire as a villain is kinda mid though im sorry. IM SORRY ill take the L opinion if i have to #its one thing if he lost his wife to unfair systematic negligence or thru someone else's doings or smth but. no she just got sick bro 😐#HWMSNFLEKSDIDOA EVERY ONCE IN A WHILE I WILL GIVW A BAD OPINION AND THIS IS ONE OF THEM. i cant be right ALL the time /j #like if i dont focus on malistaire's motives and just his ACTIONS he seems super metal #but then he does ALLLLL of that heinous shit because his wife died. like thats absolutely very sad but damn get a grip #(fandom starts breaking in my windows and drags me out into the street) IM SORRY IM SORRY LOOK ITS JUST NOT MY CUP OF TEA #ive never been invested in those Mr. Freeze types of villains where a person they love dies due to normal circumstances-#and they go fucking BERSERK. they LOSE IT. they go like “well okay fuck the entire world i guess nothing matters” and then kill people #LIKE IF IT'S DONE IN A CERTAIN WAY I CAN BE INVESTED but more often than not to me? its just kind of funny #like “okay damn there was only ONE person keeping you from being a national criminal? okay”#and you know what? thats a mood actually. thats a mood #without my cat i probanly would have become the president by now #for some reason its a little diff for me if its like a child you lost and idk why #like if malistaire lost a kid instead of his wife id probably be more inclined to feel bad and thats terribly fucked up JSLSJSJSJ #you know what its also bias because in some shape or form i relate to all the other villains. morganthe and duncan especially #whereas in malitsaire's case i have never been married. which i mean doesnt stop me from tryna be more synpathetic i guess but im just not #ONCE AGAIN FEEL VERY BAD FOR HIM AND SULVIA. like losing someone to sickness or any reason really is a serious thing #but in terms of a fictional setting with fictional characters where one of them decides to commit genocide over it? 🧍 like okay boo u do u #i will gladly give up my mantle for the “most reasonable opinions” guy in the fandom foe this one. i deserve it #wizard101 #w101 #wiz101 #text posts #malistaire drake

i love clinging to cartoons. i want to make a drawing of all of my comfort characters or at least compile a PNG of all of them and even include ones from my past that I obsessed over as a kid/teen. but it would be a lot of characters.... even if i limited it to one character per franchise, i just love so many cartoons/used to game a lot, it would be so many. i just love being a loser cartoon woman (endearing). i need to watch more cartoons. yes.

#my cra/mp twins obsession is like. the most intense cartoon obession ive had in a long time though.#when i moved out of my parents house i was able to enjoy cartoons again :)#maybe ill just do a compilation or drawing of characters that were my favorite since ive moved out (2021)#ive watched a lot of superjail; mlaatr; paswg (mixed feelings on it). invader zim. angry beavers. ed edd n eddy #and ofc cram.p twins and oblongs; grim adventures. and hoops n yoyo shorts but thats not a show tbf #txt #i keep trying to get into adventure time btw. its cute but idk i just cant get into it. i watched an old tom and jerry episode but they had #voice acting (the dog??) and it creeped me out. they arent supposed to speak. wtf. terrible. 0/10 #ok enough cartoon rambles. i should be doing other stuff atm but posting on the virtual diary at night is fun.#wait wait one more. i rewatched some sonic x and total drama episodes too. 2008core shows
