Neon please talk to me about Nicky as death…I need to know your thoughts!!!
the concept was originally in reference to hades au specifically but it is quickly spiralling out of my control and i am just thinking. i know tales through time lacus solitudinis was all like i am the instrument of your doom or whatever but nicky as peaceful death, the one who comes for those who die outside of battle, who carries souls gently from their bodies and makes it as painless as he can, who soothes the frightened ones and reassures the ones who cling to life, who is terrifying when he needs to be but always tries to be kind...... it makes me feel like 12 different emotions at once

“The Terminal Seconds of Moon Knight,” Moon Knight (Vol. 9/2021), #30.
Writer: Jed MacKay; Penciler and Inker: Alessandro Cappuccio; Colorist: Rachelle Rosenberg; Letterer: Cory Petit
#Marvel#Marvel comics#Marvel 616#Moon Knight vol. 9#Moon Knight 2021#Moon Knight comics#latest release#Moon Knight#Marc Spector#Khonshu#I always appreciate Mr. Cappuccio but I particularly appreciate how he was able to portray the complex emotion in that second to last panel#because gooooosh can’t believe I get to use this tag again#Khonshu encounter me in the trench#the man is dying and doing his best to save the city and Khonshu still manages to make it about him#because while we don’t get much in the way of Marc’s internal dialogue I feel like we can infer based on other issues in this run#that this time around Marc’s not doing this for Khonshu#there have been many times in Marc’s life where he’s sought Khonshu’s blessing or approval or notice or what have you#- I’m thinking (as much as I usually don’t like to) about the opening issues of the Huston run -#but this ain’t one of those times (it just happens to protect travelers of the night so Khonshu can claim it is all)#but yeah it’s the last panel for me#that dubious honor of having Khonshu be proud of him and the complex relationship that he and the whole system has with Khonshu#even though Khonshu has habitually tried to colonize his psyche and used him as a disposable pawn#there’s just something in Moon Knight comics pertaining to complex intra- and interpersonal relationships#with one’s own spirituality and sense of self and organized religion and fathers and distant gods#that I just cannot bring myself to shut up about (…unfortunately for the Moon Knight tumblr tag and as you may have figured#based on the metaphorical ink I’ve spilled on this blog)

okay at first i was like, why is ayan threatening to tell people akk's the one bringing the curse back when he already said he wouldnt. ayan also claimed he didnt believe akk anymore about not stealing the notebook bc of what he’s "now" seen akk do - but he’s known akk was behind things since the beginning. and actually the only motive i can come up with is that he was worried about what akk would do if he was left alone that night, because akk kept trying to get away from him, and not letting ayan help him. so ayan threatened to tell people that akk was bringing the curse back if he didnt stop.
Tumblr media
and i realized that... something huge about ayan's past is that he witnessed his uncle’s suicide. and IF im interpreting this episode correctly, you have to consider that aspect of trauma alongside the way he acts towards akk, & the reactions he gets from akk.
akk pushes ayan away when ayan says he needs to think of himself first. akk leans into ayan’s hug at first but then pushes him away again and tries to leave. so ayan follows and does what he’s done in the past. he threatens. he gets a rise out of akk, a confrontation akk can't back out of rather than an attempt to escape. and maybe ayan only does that because he’s scared. maybe he’s scared of leaving akk alone, not knowing what akk will do - whether it be continue the curse or something worse. he needs to make sure akk will stop.
so throughout the rest of the episode, as ayan drags akk back to the school to search for his notebook, it’s possible that what he’s really doing is just keeping akk busy. and it works because they settle back into the same teasing/exasperated relationship they had before. it smooths things between them. but the balance doesn’t truly tip into where it needs to be until ayan has his nightmare, and akk hurries to comfort him. after their conversation on the beach, things couldn't go back to the way they were before, but couldnt move forward either. akk isn’t the only one who needed to show weakness in this ep, ayan needed to as well. especially since while they were searching for the notebook he avoided akk’s question abt why it was important again. they both needed to lean on each other this ep. they both need to learn to trust each other. so i can’t wait to see what comes next, and how ayan eventually opens up about the truth of his relationship with dika and what happened to him.

“think abt smth besides v3!au” no
#gideon shut the hell up challenge#would love to think abt canon fawn but unfortunately there’s nothing to think abt there so.#we still can’t figure out how to write a big thing abt the fawnchen stuff but. since we’ve been thinking in general.#fawnchen sitting together at the memorial/funeral… the ortegas try to coax fawn into sitting in a seat between them but fawn is still too#emotional in v negative ways (angry at them; blames them; hates them) to consider it so they sit on the end of a row and next to chen#there is a lot of dialogue in mind abt him asking if they’ve talked to the ortegas yet and asking if they blame him [implied: the same way#that they’re blaming the twins/hb/themself] and fawn says that he wasn’t in the room [so he couldn’t have stopped anything] and he asks#again if they blame him [for not being there to help in the first place]#+ way later (read: autopsy photo time) fawn noting that chen seems to be treating them differently? he’s notably trying Not to but he’s#being weird enough that it draws attention to itself. v soon after he is ofc injured and argent joins the rangers and fawn is like#oh I get it…. he was worried abt how I’d get along w someone New joining. kinda fucked up he doesn’t trust me but it’s fine#would love to say they’d still get along but honestly without the villainy from fawn they’d probs be like neutral-positive @ each other#+ obvs even later than that is when herald joins the team and eww can you imagine what a complicated nightmare that is for fawn#on one hand. new hero!! his brain is super open and he’s nice and wants to get along w you!! on the other hand. he’s a Fan of yours and#probs only hesitates to bring up ur dead brothers (bc they were Also his icons) bc he has been trained by both ortegas to NOT!!! do that#I think they’d honestly still get along tho :) maybe if he catches them in a good enough mood he can get some brothers lore from them

ya know it’s honestly funny and weirdly comforting when my friends call me a fake gremlin or green tea bitch because like despite that they still love me and like having me around
#deity dialogue#idk like I’m the past I’ve struggled a lot with like ‘performative positivity’ where I wouldn’t ever let myself be anything other than peppy#24/7 even when it was exhausting and I wasn’t happy#and then irl I deal a lot with being treated like an idiot and infantalized and so I’ve in an attempt to make myself feel better#started to lean into it like sure make whatever assumptions you want about me I’ll find a way to benefit from you treating me like this#I’ll pretend to be an uwu sweet angel if that pleases you or whatever.#but like it’s also nice because like around my friends and loved ones I can have actual emotions other than happiness 24/7#that being said I still talk like an elementary school teacher I cannot change this I’m sorry#that’s not fake I just talk Like That I know I use and excessive amount of exclamation points and question marks this won’t change lmao#I also like to think I’m somewhat peppy and social? sure my social skills suck ass and I’m terrified of everyone ever#but I also love to talk to people and hear from people I’m just kinda at a point where I struggle to even reach out first to most people any#more. it feels like if I try to maintain contact or reach out first that I’m overstepping and should be killed in sight lmao#so again sorry if y’all don’t hear from me much or at all it’s not anything y’all did I just struggle a lot and idk how to not T-T#I have to hope that someday it’ll get easier#rn the main thing helping is the reassurance and patience from ny beloved friends <3 I love my friends sm#the tags r all over the place sorry I’m half asleep

i feel like. if a parallel/callback is going to happen then it should be like, the icing on the cake, not the only thing that makes the scene worthwhile.

Okay I will admit I was nervous going into Chalice of the Gods but I did love it
#ive been so distanced from the riordanverse since blood of olympus and i was very scared because this book is my og babies again#but rick pulled it off#were there things i didnt like? such as him forgetting Percy wore the invisibility cap before? yeah#and i wish there had been some more dialogue and meaningful conversations between characters. he's still shying away from that lately#which is disappointing#but im intrigued about what hes setting up and the little moments hes weaving in#we're still getting hints of percy's extreme power. like him with the river god?#rick what does it all MEAN#dont be a coward and commit to it#plus percy's growing resentment towards the gods and their treatment of everyone they see as less than them#give me the dark!percy storyline#but i also loved percy wavering on new rome (sorry girlies i am a new rome hater first and foremost)#and him mourning the fact that he wont be at chb much anymore#which i still think is so stupid but whatever im dealing with it#i loved all the callbacks to the og series. bit surprised rhea was introduced so casually but whatever#i feel like that could have been very cool#and the god of old age! gary! THAT was a great scene but again rick you can give us more#its okay the feelings and emotional dialogue wont hurt you#anyway im hopeful#this was just a first book in a trilogy so im hoping we'll get more into the deeper and darker themes as we go just like with pjo#you can do it rick#riordanverse#pjo#percy jackson#percy jackson and the olympians#chalice of the gods#yes i finally read it today because i am finally reading again after weeks of work kicking my ass

This is an entirely unrelated thing, but i had an idea for a “custom” follower forever ago that, if you’d like to hear, i’ve put below! warning: its fucking long and i dont have the time nor energy to make it real beyond thinking it out.
To begin with a few precursor things: i enjoy asshole characters, as we dont often see them as followers and they flesh out the world of the game in a nice way, and i enjoy characters that are relevant to specific plots within the game. If there are personal stakes involved, like serana with her story, it makes it all the more satisfying to look for dialogue and go through to the end of the quest with them.
And i’m also DEEPLY mentally ill about three things: castle Volkihar, moral ambiguity, and a guy named ronthil.
If you’ve never heard of him, i don’t blame you: he’s a vampire bosmer within clan Volkihar that does nothing but serve as a merchant and a speech trainer. His wiki is super fucking small and the unique thing about him is that he’s treated worse than dirt within the clan, making him sleep behind a bookshelf iirc. He’s constantly staying on the good behavior to not get kicked out and making himself available to tasks. ur standard pathetic meow meow, so of course i like him.
Anyway my proposal was to turn Ronthil into a “Serana dialogue add on” styled mod that changed some of his core motivations, re-contextualizing his people pleasing personality, offering players an additional perspective into clan volkihar’s inner workings, provide players who were already vampires a different start to dawnguard (because a vampire hunter approaching a vampire and said vampire going to the vampire hunter’s lair is suicidal stupidity at best), and finally provide a moderate voice for why somebody might wanna be a vampire and stay that way.
so the proposed changes start like this: Whether or not you’re a vampire, you’ll sometimes see a man wandering about at night along the roads. If you’re a human, he basically doesn’t interact with you.
If you’re a vampire, he makes the suggestion that something of value to the both of you has come to his attention recently, and if you were to help him he’d be more than generous with the earnings. Obviously this is an equivalent exchange, as he is considerably ill equipped to take on anything nasty, so you’ll have to do a lot of the heavy lifting as far as fighting goes. If you agree, he leads you straight to Dimhollow crypt and the quest follows as normal. You return Serana home and are given the typical reward offer.
Assuming you accept, you’re given the standard speech and told to get your ass going to redwater den. If you speak to him after (you’ll find him loitering about) he’ll offer to accompany you, off the record of course, if you require him. He will then be available as a follower from that point on
If you’re wondering why a Volkihar vampire is being so charming and so helpful for no good reason, he’s not being; the truth of it is that he’s an intense social climber. He sees that Harkon favors you for the return of his daughter and you’ve already shown off your combat prowess at dimhollow, now with the added bonus that you’ve been given the power of a Vampire Lord. He suspects that rubbing elbows with you in a positive capacity will prove beneficial to him rising up that clan ladder down the line. Though, to be fair, he doesn’t at all suspect that it all leads to Harkon’s death, and you & serana effectively becoming the most powerful ppl at court.
 Still, that’s really all the better for him so long as he can prove useful enough to you to be given a higher position, or at least treated with more dignity.
Ronthil in this version is basically faking all of his niceties, and underneath it all is a calculating little bastard. He wants power and status, typical vampire desires, but wants them for the protection and strength they provide, not necessarily to squash people beneath him (though he’d be tempted were the mood to strike him. I mean, he IS a vampire.) His climb to the position he’s in now, lowly as it is and even with how he’s treated, is still something he fought tooth and nail for, so he’s not willing to risk himself being stupid unless he thinks there’s something better in it for him to be that way.
aaaand i just ran out of creative juice, so thats the general idea i’d cooked up. if you read this far, congrats and also wow i sure hope you like vampires lol.
#no im not doing anything with this#this is strictly an idea#LMFAO#and also i do NOT have the technical knowledge necessary to make this all work#so if you are a modder reading this and laughing then just know this is a stupid dream brought to u by urs truly (<-- vampire enjoyer)#i probably come off as EXTREMELY mentally ill in this#whatever#also for the record if ur asking but whats why does he stick around when u basically betray harkon with serana to get the scrolls and etc#at that point he weighs his odds and decides that you're the better option.#he can either do this because youve proved yourself extremely capable till now#OR he can do this because of an emotional bond you two have formed#in my head ldb is given the option to get to the heart of his motives and such in dialogue trees at which point#even when his social climber persona is still in full effect around you#its different#he cares#but again thats dialogue tree specific stuff so not everyones gonna get that satisfaction#oh and if ur wondering where the asshole bit comes into this#well he is faking his friendship just to get close at first#but if thats not enough for u then he is also entirely into you being listener and any other immoral guilds you wanna join#his pursuit of power and status makes him go YEAAA BABE join whatever u want be the best there ever was youll be the best connection in my#social group !!!!!!!#but also on a personal moral level he's done all youre gonna do and worse before he kicks the bucket probably. so he doesnt care

very funny out of context fun fact about my ocs is that dr footstep caused castor’s parents’ divorce
#so explanation. dr footsteps level 5 dialogue implies that there's a social gap between wild and caught pokemon#wild pokemon tend to seek out trainers to join their teams so that they can get stronger and certain types (tough iirc) brag about it#while other types tend to wonder if their friends from the wild would even recognize them if they were to meet again#meanwhile wild pokemon who dont want a trainer are implied to be either prideful of not having a human or resentful that theyre weaker#so. that dialogue inspired me to create the story between castor's parents which i can say bc it has no bearing on the real story lmao#basically dusk was specifically bred to have perfect IVs and a hidden ability and bought by a trainer who didnt exactly neglect her#but didnt give her much of an emotional connection and only cared abt what she brought to the table with battling#so she didnt exactly have a choice in being caught at all nor did she have any choice in her specific trainer.#regardless though. shes in a place where it's supported that wild pokemon are missing out and shes in the best possible position#so she boasts about it and kinda looks down on wild pokemon#bruno meanwhile was an alpha pokemon who was practically pushed and trained into a leadership role since he hatched#he was born in a group of skorupis and its been an unspoken expectation that they are his responsibility#being an alpha also means that he didnt actually need a trainer to become as powerful as he became (reaching around level 75 just being wild#so he also looks down on trained pokemon because he did not have that experience and finds solace in his community#yet at the same time he resents his position bc he never chose to be a leader and he has to pretend to be vicious#when in actuality hes extremely tame for a drapion and wants nothing more than to settle down#so dusk deep down secretly kinda yearns for the wild bc she wants to know what its like and bruno secretly wants a chill trainer#that probably just feeds him and lets him sleep in their yard#meaning that the two of them are Inherently incompatible despite what they believe#bc like no matter what. if they tried to stay together someone would have been miserable#because dusk has no experience in the wild at all and likely would have perished sooner than anticipated#and also doesnt get the rigorous training she desires#while if bruno joined her trainers team then he would be leaving the skorupi to be vulnerable in the great marsh#and joining a team where only his mate would have had an emotional connection to him when community was so important before#and so they both have to stay in their positions and theyre both kinda looking down on one another AND being very jealous of them#so like. they can talk abt how their romance was escapism all they want but it NEVERwas gonna work out. sorry castor#you were always destined to be a child of divorce#id like to think that dusk at least gets a different trainer that still uses her competitively as she loves#but also gives her the affection and friendship and connection that shes always yearned for#but like. way way later on bc when she gives up castor she is extremely deep in the fog and terrified of losing her trainer
