Damn. The way it is described... Damn.
Osha joining the Dark Side was a triumphant moment.
The writer of the Acylote said that is how we're supposed to feel:
"You want to feel Osha’s triumph. You want to feel her joining forces with The Stranger...Even though they are standing there, looking out at the sunset, ready to conquer the world, the tragedy is we know they don’t."
Note: the tragedy is NOT that a lot of people died, but that the two can't be together (because of Plagueis). (interview here)
Now, if that doesnt absolve villains of their bullshit, I dont know what does.
Let me try inserting some other fictional baddies.
"You want to feel Walter White's triumph. You want to feel him joining forces with the Nazis......Even though they are standing there, looking out at the desert, ready to conquer the world, the tragedy is we know they don’t."
"You want to feel the Frey's triumph. You want to feel them joining forces with the Boltons. ...Even though they are standing there, looking out over the Red Wedding, ready to conquer the world, the tragedy is we know they don’t."
"You want to feel Anakin's triumph. You want to feel him joining forces with Palpatine. ...Even though they are standing there, looking out at the burning Jedi temple, ready to conquer the world, the tragedy is we know they don’t."
Why is Syir so powerful anyway? Why is such an unstoppable, Uber OP Villain in a (supposed) slice of life comic? And is it even explained how Syir got so strong? But yeah, she probably would say that Syir can't get knocked out, for some unexplained reason. Which is such bad writing.
(Also my team would be a Kingambit, Tinkaton, Pyukumuku, Mimikyu, Scizor and: Slaking for Trace, or a Gliscor w/ poison heal for synchronize.)
Once she said she originally wanted Pokemadhouse to take a "Grimdark" turn with things like Syir not being uncommon, but she gave up on it.
A thing about her writing these op characters is that she hates when People try to find ways to Beat them, so she turns them almost invincible. Check Tale of Valkyrie for example: Ryder and the Val'kyrs were capable of destroying literal Multiverses alone and there was nothing People could do to stop them. Aliana in Sith resurgence is literally this beast of a Force User and no one is strong enough to stop her. Pokemadhouse i already said.
She loves power fantasy, her characters being the strongest and the fiercest. And mixed with bad writing of her, is a hazard.
Also very good team
Found this tierlist i made some months ago
Should i change it?
So let me tell you how the 4 timelines of Pokemadhouse works!
In this post i explained about the 2-82 universe, from the oficial list made by lily of Pokemadhouse AUS, that in total are 3.
These 3 actually.
So lets give a resume from the 4 timelines:
This is the original comic timeline, the timeline where all events of the comic happened, and the one that "Matters" in a way.
The best timeline according to Lily, where they are all ok, having happy lives and doing what they did in the comics.
This is the Timeline from the explanation i gave before: A timeline where G Brainwashes Lily to make her her wife and turns her into a puppet wife. Its a timeline hated by both Prime!G and Prime!Lily, because they know the G from this timeline is a monster but cant do nothing because its alternative timelines rules or something similar. Either way, very few info is given about this timeline, the main thing known is that the G in this timeline is blantaly evil.
Detail: The number of this timeline is a reference to Gardevoir number Pokedex, reinforcing the ideia of G being in control of everything.
This is the saddest timeline from the 4. According to it, in 2017, around the same time Lily was dating Lizzy (Called Kirsten in the comics and refered as a monster in all timelines), G died somehow. Her death affected Lily in a very bad way, because 3 years after her death she was still incapable of reforming her life, so she just had a depressive breakdown.
She gave away all her pokemon, left behind all her friends and locked herself at her own home, not leaving for anything. Its implied that she has a relationship with someone abusive because in the wiki its said that her bag eyes are Actually BLACK EYES.
Oh and the icing in the cake: G in this timeline is a Ghost. Not a Ghost type or a poltergeist but a literal ghost no one can see or touch, that haunts Lily trying to find a way to help her, but she cant. So all she can do is stay with her.
The Timeline number, 1-3, is a reference to the number 13, because this timeline is also called Bad Luck AU.
This is the calmest Timeline of the 4, and the only one where the original Owner of the Madhouse is still living his happy life. On this AU, G and Lily basically decided to travel by themselves in a hippie-like style. All they do usually is smoke weed, pot, and chill out. The title of this timeline is a joke about 420 (Too obvious)
But in this timeline its also implied that G and Lily did the "Deed" after getting extremely High, an event in the comics that its called the "Microwave Lamen incident", a mistery that was never fully explained what it was and probably never will because of them both being so fucking High all the time they dont seem to care about anything else.
In this timeline Lily dont have any other pokemon too.
That's the 4 timelines, thank you for reading until here, now im gonna back to my life.
Peace

So according to Lily's own commentary on her comic, for a long time Madhouse was just about how cool it would be to have a psychic best friend, then it was about making fun of people who wanted to fuck Gardevoirs, then it was therapy about people who develop feelings for people too easily trying to move past that, then G and the Violate arc were a reflection of Courtney abusing Lily, then the comic was always about Lily not wanting to fuck a Gardevoir and they were never getting together, now that whole arc is a funny, spontaneous will-they-won't-they.
Like these are all different things. These are all different stories with very different authorial intents behind them. And to the first person to ask why this matters: because despite trying to pin this on 'ADHD', it's actually Lily shifting around the meta framing of the story to feel out the explanation that best serves whatever public persona she's most invested in presenting at the moment, which is exactly how she's handled every controversy from Stockholm to Tara Callie to Courtney.
“—it's actually Lily shifting around the meta framing of the story to feel out the explanation that best serves whatever public persona she's most invested in presenting at the moment, which is exactly how she's handled every controversy from Stockholm to Tara Callie to Courtney.”
YES, THANK YOU. That is exactly what she’s doing, cherry picking whatever narrative suits her self-interest best. It’s so… Agh. I hate it.
Anyways, here’s an old screenshot of Lily posting art of Madhouse!Lily and G being married.
RWBY: JAUNE WITCH HUNTER AU
*Jaune walks around The Forest, Sword on one Hand, a Shield in Another, and Aura surrounding its body. Suddenly, he hears something. Something moved in The Woods. He assumes a fighting instance when suddenly...*
Ruby: SURPRISE ATTACK! *She jumps in Jaune from The side, making him Fall and staying on top of his belly. She is a White skinned girl with short Dark hair, and she is wearing a red dress* Yay, i got you!
Jaune: Gah! *Looks at her, trying to get up* Its you! The Red Witch Ruby Rose!
Ruby: Yeah That's me. *Smiles* by your paladin armor i assume you are a Witch Hunter, right?
Jaune: Yes i am *points his Sword at her chest* Prepare to die, Witch!
Ruby: Wow, That's a Nice Sword! One-hand, leaf-shaped Blade... *She touches The Blade, her Smile fading a bit* wait a minute...
*with one swipe she Takes The Sword from Jaune's Hand. He is Surprised, because he was holding It Very fiercefully, and she Just took It off his Hand with Very simple easiness. With another look, she points his Sword at him.*
Ruby: You are not a Witch Hunter!
Jaune: I am!
Ruby: Liar! This is The Sword of a squire Witch Hunter! And look at your armor! Its... Rusty.
*Jaune Bite his underlip, taking off his helmet and revealing his beautiful Young face and short Blonde Hair. Ruby looks at him with a small light in her eyes, but Jaune is blushing in Shame.*
Jaune: Fine. Its True. Im still a Witch Hunter apprentice. I Heard that you were in these Woods so i came to find you. Maybe i could show Master Glynda that i am more than Just... A Clumsy Stupid Boy.
Ruby: Wow she is so cruel to you...
Jaune: Everyone is. Im trying so hard to prove myself but i cant even kill a Witch! End me Quick, Please.
*Ruby look at Jaune face with an Innocent expression. Then she throws his Sword away and lifts him above The ground, an impressive feat for someone so short in comparison to the young Witch Hunter apprentice.*
Ruby: Up and Go, and with me you Go.
Jaune: Hey Hey Hey put me down!
Ruby: Nope. You are now Mine. The Witch Hunters look like bad Guys. So im gonna be the good Guy in your life!
Jaune: But i dont want to be friends with a Witch! Im a Witch Hunter.
Ruby: Too bad that you are Very pretty for me to care~
Jaune: Somebody help me!
Ruby: Scream all you want. These Woods are so thick no one will Hear you.
*as They disappear in The Woods, 3 lights shine in The sky. One yellow, one White and one Black. Those 3 lights all Go for The same Direction in The Woods. Those are also 3 Witches, who dont know Their friend Ruby is bringing their mortal enemy with them...*
TO BE CONTINUED...
Knowing her, i wouldnt even bet. Its full certainty she will remove this part from her vídeo and then gaslight every single of her followers.
I watched Lily orchard/CD-Call New video
And i will not give much bigger spoilers so i will just leave this here to you to give your opinions about
In a resume, at a small part of the vídeo, Lily puppet slaps Pixie and screams at her for calling the number of 13 episodes a season. Its a very uncomfortable scene with no music and nothing, just violence.
Maybe just me but this still makes me trembles a bit. Just... Made me think about bad stuff.
This was literally my reaction:
Literally ep 7
*Not my meme, just found on discord*
What can i say?
I like Samurai
And Knights
But also Cowboys
