*deep breath in*

the fears 👏 have always 👏 been (in one way or another) 👏 parallel 👏 to 👏 desire 👏

let me explain.

so many of the statements given by actual avatars center around some sort of need that was met by their entity. Lots of them even had a positive relationship with the fear that drove them.

Jane Prentiss is an excellent example - the Corruption has always been about a form of toxic and possessive love, but she personally has a deep desire to be “fully consumed by what loves her,” and finds a perverse joy and relief at allowing herself to be a home

Jude Perry is another - she fucking loved watching people’s lives be utterly destroyed. The Desolation only offered her a power of destruction on a grander scale, and then gave her a more intense rush of joy as she did its work. When she tells Jon that he needs to feed the Eye before it feeds on him, it’s almost as an afterthought; she was happily feeding the Desolation long before it burned her into a new existence.

Simon Fairchild. Every time that old loose bag of bones wanders into the picture, he is having a fucking EXCELLENT time playing with the Vast. He loves showing people their own insignificance, and he loves luring them into situations where he can throw them into the void as he smiles and waves.

Peter Lukas (hell, the whole Lukas family (except Evan. RIP Evan.)) hated. people. all he wanted was for them all to go away, to leave him alone. The Lonely only fulfilled that desire.

Daisy, Trevor, and Julia, all devoted to hunting those things they deemed monstrous.

Melanie, holding tight to that bullet in her leg because on some level, she wanted it. It felt good, it felt right, it felt like it fit right alongside the anger and spite that drove her to success.

Annabelle Cane first encountered the Web when she was a child, running away from home in order to tug on her parents’ heartstrings in just the right way to have them wrapped around her little finger. Later on she volunteered to be the subject of an ESP study. Hell, she’s the one who dangled the “Is it really You that wants this?” question over Jon’s head in S4.

And that brings us to Jon, beloved Jarchivist, the Voice that Opened the Door. Ever since he was a child targeted by the Web, he was looking for answers. He joined the Magnus Institute’s Research Department looking for them, he stalked his coworkers in search for them, he broke into Gertrude’s flat and laptop out of desperation for them. And when he realized that all he had to do was Ask to get truthful answers to his questions? It was only natural for him to jump at that opportunity.

Elias told S3 Jon that he did want this, that he chose it, that at every crossroads he kept pushing onwards, and the inner turmoil that caused was one of the focal points for Jon’s character through the rest of the podcast.

There’s a certain line of thinking in many circles about the power of the Devil: he’s not able to create anything new. All he’s able to do is twist and warp that which was already present, making it something ugly and profane while still maintaining the facade of something desirable.

Jon didn’t choose the Eye. But he did wander into its realm of power, exhibiting exactly the qualities it was most capable of hijacking and warping to its own ends. Jon didn’t choose the Apocalypse. But Jonah picked at him little by little, pointing him towards each Fear individually. Jon didn’t want to release the Fears. But the Web tugged on his strings just so and laid a pretty trail for him to follow until he reached its desired conclusion.

Jon didn’t choose ultimate power, or omniscience, or even his own role as Head Archivist. But he said “yes” to the right (wrong?) orders and kept on pushing for the right (wrong?) answers. He wanted to succeed at the work he had been assigned. He wanted to protect his friends. He wanted to rescue them when they were lost. He wanted to prevent the apocalypse, to save the world. He wanted to know why he was still alive, when so many had died right in front of him.

The Great Wheel of Evil Color that is the Entities might not fit as neatly into categories in this universe - maybe there was no Robert Smirke trying to impose strict categories on emotional experiences, or maybe the ways they manifest in the world has turned on its head (goodness knows many of them have been showcased and blended in some very fun and new and horrifying ways so far) - but their fundamental foundations seem to be the same. Hell, in episode one we learned that there had been enough individual incidents to create a distinction between “dolls, watching” and “dolls, human skin.”

Smirke’s Fourteen isn’t going to be relevant as common parlance, RQ said that already, but I don’t think that means the Fears themselves (and their Dream Logic-based rules) are different - I think it means that the levels of understanding, language used, and personal connections among people “in the know” are going to be entirely unfamiliar

#tma #tmagp #the magnus protocol #tmagp meta #tmagp analysis #the entities #robert smirke #smirke's fourteen #mind write a meta post that doesn’t turn into a fucking essay challenge #I literally thought about citing my episode sources here but decided that would get too FUCKING long.#anyway I’m pulling mostly from Gerry’s statement (111) and #and the Big Elias Group Confrontation (92)#and Annabelle’s statement (147)#and then finale - 196 / 197 / 200 #there are other little lines that I grabbed - tbh feel free to ask about anything I’ve said bc I feel like I’m ready to defend a thesis #I’ve been thinking about this on and off for a few weeks since the desire thing started going around #I have an obsession with Themes as they relate to Worldbuilding and now I have subjected you all to it as well #I am serious tho if anyone wants me to pull the specific parts I’m talking about (whether cuz you have Questions or you wanna ref them too)#lmk #my hyperfocus on silly media brain might as well come in useful somehow #aight peace ✌️

If Melanie, Basira, or Daisy had been in Jon's position, you would not have demanded kindness from people who were personally victimised by them.

Melanie, Basira, and Daisy, all gave statements, they all had to deal with him in their mind, watching their worst nightmares. If Melanie was there, being confronted about hurting random people, you would not have demanded Jon show sympathy for her.

I think, maybe I'm running in the wrong Magnus circles, but people forget that Jon had a choice, that was very much the point of MAG 147. Jon had a choice in hurting people. Jon chose to hurt people, yes it was influenced, yes it probably would've been more helpful if they were a bit nicer to him, but they're not infallible, and they're not neutral in this situation, because Jon has hurt all of them in the same way they found out he was hurting others.

So, frankly, cut the women some slack.

#happy almost tma girls week #melanie king #basira hussain #daisy tonner #jonathan sims #tma #tma discourse #tma fandom #archive for all i care. hi jonny if you see this. why did you see this.#mag 146 #mag 147 #i want to let everyone know that i love him #but i also love melanie #and she gets a lot of undeserved flack #mostly bc she's a woman im just gonna say it #tma fandom meta

Oshi No Ko Chapter 147 - My Thoughts/Analysis

I came into this chapter with very little expectations because of the way people were reacting to it and I came out of it very pleasantly surprised that it wasn’t a complete trainwreck. Of course, it was still a bit of a mess, but for completely different reasons that I expected. Spoilers for Oshi No Ko 147 below.

And so we finally start off with the long awaited Hikaru-Ruby conversation. The paneling with Hikaru showing his black star eyes alongside Ruby and her own white star eyes is a very cool contrast. And his gentle prodding toward Ruby is basically saying that he knows she took a long time at the shrine, so he’s curious to hear what she has to say. I wonder what kind of answer he’d had in mind there, and whether or not he expects Ruby to be truthful, especially since I’m getting the vibe that she knows exactly who he is. But they have to play their roles, especially since he hasn’t been unveiled just yet.

“No one was born purely evil in this world.” Saying this right next to the man who (probably) engineered Ai’s death is a real shot in the arm. I think this line basically confirms that she knows who Hikaru is, if only because she wouldn’t say such a line to just some rando in the same shrine as her. Saying these words doesn't make sense if she’s under the assumption that this person is a normal human being or worse, some reporter or paparazzi looking for a scoop. Ruby’s smart enough to stay clear of any sort of scandal especially when she’s out in public like this.

“Nevertheless, there’s someone I can never forgive.” Hikaru must be sweating on the other side of this conversation, lemme tell you. This is basically a confession from her to him. Coupled with her previous words must really be giving him some mixed signals, though.

It’s also curious that she’s on the fence on whether or not to forgive Hikaru, especially when he’s right with her at the moment. Not to mention that even she doesn’t know which decision is right, delegating her agency to some “god”. Crow Girl must be laughing her ass off in the distance right now.

With Hikaru’s backstory being unveiled to her, even though it’s being obfuscated through the movie, she can understand him somewhat. Is it enough to justify him being the (likely) reason why Ai is dead? That’s what she’s still settling with. In this case, perhaps it’s less to do with forgiveness, and more so not letting the past burden her? Aqua may appear to have a monopoly on coping badly with Ai’s death, but let’s not forget that Ruby was also present for Ai’s death as well. It’s just that Ruby was able to deal with that baggage in a healthier(?) way that Aqua did due Aqua’s other bits of trauma rearing its ugly head.

Ruby backtracking here is basically giving Hikaru an out so that both of them can pretend not to know each other. If he wants to reveal himself here, then she’s giving him an opportunity to do so. Of course, Hikaru, just like Aqua, answers honestly in a roundabout way.

“If you come up with an answer after worrying about it so much, then you have to accept it. Everyone does.” Instead of absolving Ruby for not wanting to forgive him, he basically throws the ball back in her court. If she comes up with an answer—any answer—after this much struggle, then she should accept it instead of relying on a god to answer that for you. I also sense that he’s speaking from experience here, but anything more than that would have to be labeled as speculation.

It’s quite impressive that he manages to ferret out that revenge isn’t Ruby’s true wish. Revenge has always been an Aqua thing, and Ruby’s only gotten into it because of AquaGoro. Now that she knows that he’s still with her, she only cares about revenge if only because Aqua cares about it. I think it’s likely that he’s uninterested in Aqua because his revenge plot is too obvious—or perhaps not interesting enough in his eyes. I dunno, he’s just never had the same interest in Aqua as he does Ruby, and while I do think there’s a certain amount of Aqua-Hikaru versus Ai-Ruby parallels that he sees, I don’t think that those parallels are just the reason for his disinterest towards Aqua. Perhaps he doesn’t want to look at someone too similar to his past self?

“I want to fulfill my mother’s unfinished dreams.” Interesting statement. Especially since I don’t believe we’ve seen what Ai’s unfinished dreams really were. We’ve seen her attachment to Aqua and Ruby as children, and her difficulty in not saying the whole “I love you” to either of them. Of course, this can also refer to Ai asking Gotanda to, “Please film the real me”, in her words. But I’m not sure Gotanda ever told Ruby about said conversation in the first place. I swear if this is something those blasted DVDs are dredging up—

“So you want to be like your mother. You want to be even one step closer to her.” Somehow the expression in these panels looks almost…disappointed? I think that’s the answer he expected from Ruby, but the next panel blows his expectations out of the water.

“I’ll become an idol that surpasses my mom…I think that’s the only way we can all be saved.” What a line. What a fucking line. It’s amazing to finally get the words that I think Ruby has been wringing in her head for so long into the air and to the reader. We’ve known for a while that she’s wanted to become an idol all to find AquaGoro, but this is some good development for her now that she’s found him. And since AquaGoro’s been suffering in silence for these past few chapters or so, I also don’t think it’s a stretch to say that this new objective for herself is also working towards AquaGoro.

Ruby with two white star eyes????? Oh my god. Ohhhhhh my god. If these are permanent—

Hikaru. Hikaru. His reaction there—and with his own white star eyes—

GOD DAMN IT AKANE. Interrupting this conversation is idiotic. I would even say this is slightly out of character for her, actually. The longer this conversation goes, the more information she can gather about Hikaru and his motives. This is a public place and Hikaru doesn’t know who’s around, so he’s not going to be killing Ruby in broad daylight. The duo even seem to be having a casual conversation, so the correct move if she is stalking Hikaru, is to jump in only when he starts to bring her to a more isolated location.

And a Nino appearance! I’d wondered how she was going to get involved with Hikaru. Hikaru talking about the movie production itself is also kinda interesting. Him saying that this day would come sooner or later is curious. We know he’s killed at least one other person, but even to this day I am still suspicious on his reasons for killing her. But his words at least imply that he expected that there’d be a day where he’d face repercussions for his actions. I’m sure we’ll be seeing what he means in a later chapter since we’re finally getting to his backstory.

“But…before that…” Now what could this be referring to? My money’s on him finally confronting Aqua. If he wanted either twin out of the picture after he’d found out the movie was proceeding, he’d very easily be able to eliminate either of them through underhanded means. Not to mention that with Kaburagi’s insider knowledge, he could also shut down this production before it became a real risk to him. Even killing one of the actresses in the movie would shut down production long enough for it to be sent to reshoots and possibly development hell. It just seems so strange that he’d allow things to get this far.

And now we cut to so many movie scenes being shown. What a disappointment. We didn’t get to see Aqua as the stalker react to AiRuby dying or go through his thoughts about these scenes in any meaningful way. I’ve already talked about the arc’s pacing issues before, so I won’t go over all of it again. There is one nugget of wisdom that I think I’ll point out here, though. The chapter seems to imply that Ai and Hikaru broke up after the twins were born. Whether or not that much is actually accurate is another thing entirely.

I’ve had some time to digest the chapter in its entirety, and I think I have some final thoughts on the matter. Firstly, Ruby’s dual star eyes. On one hand, I love the idea of her getting them by trying to surpass Ai. On the other, I dislike that Hikaru was the catalyst for her getting them in the first place. Still, with how the panels in the manga were framed, it’s difficult to determine whether or not these are now permanent and now her “normal” state.

I’d have personally liked for her to get them through a conversation with Aqua and delving into his own trauma, but his thoughts seem to have been obscured from us during this arc in particular. A shame, because it feels like we’re missing an integral part of the puzzle with him gone, and not in a good way. The fact that we’re getting so much Ruby screentime in this arc when most of the time the spotlight’s been on Aqua for most of the manga bends the narrative in a way that doesn’t rub me well. Really, how hard would it be for Ruby to have another arc that focused on her before the movie arc and the Ch123 reveal to develop her feelings for Goro and the idol industry in the first place?

Secondly, I think just by reading the chapter it’s quite obvious that she knows who Hikaru is. There’s been a boatload of talk about how Ruby was stupid for not recognizing Hikaru, but really, what was she to do when she saw him? Scream? Call out for help? That’d be a surefire way to get stabbed if his objective was to kill her. And again, it’s a public enough place that attempted murder would leave traces of evidence if he was to try to kill her. If he was trying to kill her, he wouldn’t go up to her and let up her guard. So she has to assume that he’s not here to murder her and goes along with the polite fiction that they’re just two strangers who don’t know each other. Her words to Hikaru just don’t make sense if she was talking to a complete stranger. She knew who he was as soon as he approached her, and she had to play her hand the best she could given the circumstances. It’s the only interpretation that doesn’t fall under complete character assassination.

My final thought with the chapter is this. I think I’m finally willing to put my chips on the table to say that I don’t think Hikaru is responsible for Ai’s death. Notice that I don’t say culpable, as it’s difficult to argue that he wasn’t somewhat involved with it considering that Ryosuke and Hikaru interacted with each other based off of what Crow Girl said(which we’ll assume is true). There’s still enough wiggle room between the lines with regards to Hikaru and Ryosuke’s relationship, as well as enough oddities with Hikaru’s behavior during the movie production makes me lean in that direction.

It’s also important to note that while the manga frames Ryosuke killing Ai as being the result of Ai calling Hikaru and him leaking her address ,we never actually see whether or not that’s actually the case and the circumstances behind it. We assume that Hikaru leaked Ai’s address to Ryosuke just because Aqua believes it to be so, but the exact link between Ryosuke and Hikaru is still nebulous. We don’t know the circumstances behind the two meeting in the first place, and how Hikaru knew that by giving him Ai’s address that he would go over to the apartment and kill her unless he instructed him to do so.

Of course, the elephant in the room is this: We’ve seen Hikaru kill Yura in the manga. That much is pretty much true. It’s why he murdered her that I question. He says he wants to preserve her talent and that’s the common interpretation to why he murdered her in the first place, but do we really believe he’s being completely truthful to someone he killed in the same chapter? I certainly don’t. Still, anything said regarding his motives at this point will likely slide into even more speculation, and I suspect we’ll be getting more Hikaru screentime before this arc ends. Maybe we’ll even have people actually beat some questions out of him.

it's medication increase day yaaaay

may they do their job and take away this excess of black bile.

interesting to look back on hippocrates's list of qualifications for melancholia (excess of black bile) and see that it matches symptom for symptom 6/9 of a modern depressive episode.

#of course the pharmacy decided to fulfill this script in the most useless way #by giving me 147 50mg capsules beause the increase is to 150mg for 3 weeks #and then maybe to 200mg for another three after that #so they think the way i should take it is 3 x 50mg and then 4 x 50mg

Eiffel 65 - Blue (Da Ba Dee) 1998

"Blue (Da Ba Dee)" is a song by Italian music group Eiffel 65. It was first released in October 1998 in Italy and became internationally successful the following year. It is the lead single of the group's 1999 debut album, Europop.

The song initially found success in France, where it debuted in August 1999 and reached number one for three weeks. It then found success in other European countries, reaching the top spot on many charts in September the same year. It became one of the biggest-selling songs of 1999, reaching number one in at least 18 countries, charting at number three in Italy, and peaking at number six on the US Billboard Hot 100 in January 2000. It reached number one in Australia, New Zealand and Canada. In the UK, the song initially entered the top 40 purely on import sales; it was only the third single to do this. The song re-charted on 6 May 2013 at number 40 in the UK, following its inclusion in Iron Man 3.

The song received a Grammy Award nomination for Best Dance Recording at the 2001 Grammy Awards. "Blue (Da Ba Dee)" has also been heavily sampled and remixed in later years.

The accompanying music video for the song was released in 1999 by BlissCoMedia, a computer graphics division of Bliss Corporation, and featured computer-generated graphics that were done in 3ds Max. With very few resources, tutorials and books, and only one editing machine, the video was made between 1998 and 1999 in a garage in about two to three months.

"Blue (Da Ba Dee)" received a total of 75,2% yes votes!
