What I love most about Skyrim (and TES in general) is how, once the surface is at all scratched, you’re confronted with the most buckwild lore in the history of ever. Like, Skyrim’s baseline experience is: you are a person born with the soul of a dragon, which means you can absorb their souls and speak their language. Fair enough! There are two moons! And vampires! Giants herd mammoths across the plains!
But then! Dig a little deeper, and it’s all “yeah, there are two moons, but they aren’t really moons, they’re the corpse of the god who tricked all the other gods into creating the world, and mortals just interpret them as moons”, and “an entire race created technology that runs on souls, and they accidentally erased themselves from existence while trying to become gods, well at least that’s our best guess” and “some dudes replaced their hearts with plants and you can pickpocket the plant-heart right out of their chest” and “here’s a weapon that sometimes turns your enemies into pastries”.
What a game, you guys.

A dragon is a fierce creature. Strong. Dangerous. Greedy.
And Kagami was so very greedy.
Particularly when it came to the time and attention of one Marinette Dupain-Cheng.

You know what’s incredibly irritating? When you’re unconsciously stimming, eg tapping your leg, playing with your jewelry etc in a very special way, then suddenly stop, then realizing something is missing, wanting to return to wiggling your leg but not knowing how exactly you moved it because you did it unconsciously so it just feels wrong no matter what you try you just don’t get that satisfying feeling of That Special Move™️ back so it feels like something important is missing or is it just me
Lucien is still alive when the Hero arrives at Applewatch. Imagine him hanging there, flayed and torn to pieces, seeing through blurry bloodshed eyes his Silencer storming in with evidence proving his innocence in their hands. Imagine him wanting to smile despite the agonizing pain, despite literally missing half of his face. Imagine him taking his last breaths feeling proud of his loyal Silencer, who, by the looks on their face, hurried to Applewatch like it was their life on the line and not his. Imagine him slipping into darkness as Sithis’s cold grip drags him into the Void and yet feeling triumphant over the Black Hand as the last thing he sees is the horror in Mathieu Belamont’s eyes. Lucien dies feeling avenged, knowing that the Traitor’s punishment will be much more worse than his. He dies knowing that even though his dear Silencer didn’t make it in time, they were on his side till the very end.
a lot of people want adrien to be more distant to gabriel or whatever with these headcanons, for some adrien angst. i would much rather gabriel try to fix the relationship. while he is neglectful, he can repair it. he loves adrien, and adrien loves gabriel. gabriel can become a better father and person. it doesn't change what he did, but adrien deserves a caring father, and i hope the show will progress their relationship, like they did in gorizilla or something like that.
Before you read any further make sure you watch all episodes of Final Space since I will be talking about the whole first season.
I was watching the documentary that was released today where Olan goes into the theme of loneliness in the show and I started to realize how all of the characters are brought together by loneliness.
Gary is obvious. His father died when he was young and he was basically exiled in space for five years with a bunch of robots. He has a desperation to get out of that state by befriending anyone he comes across no matter their past. In the end, however, he is essentially back to where he started since the majority of his friends are either dead or MIA and his only comfort before death is talking with his AI friend HUE, someone he didn’t consider company when a prisoner.
Quinn is lonely in that she, at the time, was the only one in the Infinity Guard to defy The Lord Commander. She was betrayed by the very organization she based her whole life around and has a hard time trusting anyone else in the event she might be hurt again.
Avocato is lonely because he feels that no one would ever empathize with him. He’s hesitant about being close to anyone because he knows once people know about his history and how he was The Lord Commander’s second in command, they would never give him the time of day so he shuts down any friendly gestures at first. Avocato even anticipates his son will never forgive him for the things he’s done. He’s lonely in that he anticipates everyone will hate him.
Little Cato is another obvious one. Hell, he even says it in episode 7. He’s lonely because he never really had a family. Even when Avocato was alive, he was mostly separated from him and it is implied that Avocato was cold outwardly towards him when working for The Lord Commander. He had one moment of feeling whole again with his father and then it was suddenly ripped from his arms when Avocato sacrificed himself. His guilt for his father’s death makes him feel even more alone and would surely eat him if it weren’t for Gary.
Mooncake is lonely because as Nightfall and Lord Commander put it, “everywhere he goes, death follows.” No matter who he befriends with, it will always end in tragedy. In the end when everyone is dead due to people trying to protect him or when he himself uses his powers, he will be back to square one and wander in the loneliness of space.
KVN is actually a pretty relatable form of loneliness in that no one believes in him. Gary constantly makes it a point that he absolutely loathes KVN to the point it physically pains him to give him a thumbs up when he does something good. HUE even acknowledges that no one has any faith in KVN when he is in the process of saving the Galaxy One from the Infinity Guard. I feel that KVN is well aware that no one really believes in him but puts on a smile (even though he doesn’t have a mouth) to hide his insecurities. All he wants is approval and friends, but due to his annoying nature, it’s hard for people to actually take him seriously.
HUE is pretty simple in that him being a stereotypical “unfeeling AI”, he feels that he is destined to be lonely and friendless. However, over time, he develops a very close bond towards Gary and is probably the closest friend Gary has since they both had to live with each other for five years. He overcomes the loneliness of his programming by discovering a bit of humanity inside of him via his care for Gary. When Gary dies he actually feels loss and thus alone inside the helmet of his deceased friend. It’s basically how Cortana felt between Halo 3 and Halo 4 after John freezes himself for 4 years in space and she has no company but the frozen body of her closest friend.
The Lord Commander even has some loneliness inside of him and I feel that this is going to play a huge part in season 2. The Lord Commander, or Jack, is lonely due to the fact that he was always in the shadow of someone else and felt unimportant. He was the co-pilot of the great John Goodspeed but history only remembers John and not Jack on that fateful flight. His rise to power is a desperation for him to be remembered, but in doing so, he is regarded as one of the vilest beings in the universe. His value for loyalty is another desperation to get out of a lonely state since he wants everyone to pay attention to him and not anyone else. His insecurities really take form in the last episode when he insists that he got his powers because he was chosen and therefore important and therefore noticed. However, Gary lays the hard truth on him and tells him that his powers were a mistake and he is still a nobody which in turn infuriates Jack. In the end, the Titans choose Earth and leave Jack to suffer alone with his illness with no one to care for him.
I’m super excited where Season 2 is going to go but I hope the theme of loneliness continues throughout the show because I think its a very multi-layered and important theme to explore in fiction. :)
The kids in this show are currently 14-15 years old.
This show’s target audience are children who are younger than the characters. So, not you, not me, not any user that should be using tumblr.
There are MULTIPLE seasons left. Stop acting as if the show ends at the end of this season whenever something happens.
Writing isn’t bad just because you have a problem with something that a character says or does.
Marinette and Adrien are Yin and Yang, and as Master Fu has even said, “they’re made for each other”. Which means endgame. It’s been foreshadowed since S1, how can you possibly think otherwise?
Take a breath. If the show itself is continuing to cause you so much stress and salt (two things that are really bad for your health) then maybe it’s time to take a step back from it.
You remember what it’s like being a teenager, right? As a teen, we would do dumb stuff. We were nervous and scared and anxious around our crushes and the thought of them knowing how we feel is, like, the scariest thing in the world. Most likely you’re an adult now and you don’t feel this way, or at least much, anymore. So you’re projecting your current self onto the characters and expecting them to react how you would. But they’re not you! They’re like 14 year old you. Not that much time should’ve passed that you can’t remember yourself, or your friends, or your siblings and how you or they were like at that age. That being said, kids are supposed to be relating and learning from this. Stop acting like its existence is to please you specifically, because it’s not. Whenever an event happens, like Chat finding out Ladybug loves someone else, or Marinette finding out Adrien loves someone else, or Luka/Kagami coming into the picture, everyone loses their minds and starts assuming the worst and voicing those opinions and feelings like it’s fact. This is a multi-season show that could very well have more seasons than even the creators themselves know about at this point in time. When have you ever watched a multi-season show where what was going on in the beginning is still is mega prevalent and really the only thing going at the end? Relax, there’s plenty of time for things to be worked out and for new issues to arise. Marinette or Adrien could tell the other one that they hate their guts and I can guarantee that they would be feeling just about the opposite by the end of this show. A lot can change in a short amount of time! I mean, have you ever watched an Asian drama? So you don’t like that Alya didn’t stick up for Marinette in Chameleon and ignored her claim about Lila because she thought she was being jealous, or that Kagami isn’t what you envisioned in your mind after seeing her briefly in Riposte, or that Marinette’s always had the tendency to be obsessive about Adrien and do crazy and embarrassing things when it comes to him too. I totally get all that. Having a preconceived notion about a character that’s just been introduced to be wrong when you start actually getting to know them, or you’ve only seen part of what they’re like and they do something you don’t like, is no reason to claim bad writing. I’ve seen bad writing from shows from all over the world my entire life, and this isn’t it. You know the ones, the ones that make you just want to hit your head on something to put yourself out of your misery when the characters have a conversation for five minutes. If this show’s writing was so bad like tumblr users like to keep saying, it wouldn’t be mega popular like it is to the point where a majority of people have at least heard of or seen something from the show. There’s always room for improvement, of course, but not agreeing with some things doesn’t equal bad writing.
Yin and Yang. Extremely obvious that they’re both alike and very different at the same time, that they compliment each other both when they’re around one another, and also when they’re not, but going through similar things at around the same time. The parallels emphasize this all the time. This is a story about characters growing up, learning, changing, and experiencing life - with the add-on responsibility of saving Paris (and later, the rest of the world) from danger. We’d have no story if by season 2, Marinette and Adrien were dating and everything went happily for the rest of the show. That’s not how life works. One mishap, one misunderstanding, one new crush, that’s not going to change the outcome of these two but in a more natural and positive way. I honestly don’t understand why anyone who no longer finds joy in something would continue sticking to it, if that applies to some users who find the need to post constant salt. It’s okay to be frustrated at times, but it’s not if it’s a common thing. That’s just unhealthy. You may say you have the right to post it, but people also have the right to ask you not to, as this is a community that’s dedicated to the love for something. Because while you may not like the show, or be able to stand how it’s progressing anymore, there are a lot of us that still do, and always will, and all the salt just brings everybody down. We would like to share our thoughts and feelings about what the show is - not always have to read salt about what it isn’t.
So this is Raiden, or Radar x Aiden. It is a rare ship. It was for a Valentine's event on MCSM amino! I go by mystic doggo on amino! :) Please enjoy!
Radar was running around Beacontown, doing errands for the people. Jesse was out, leaving Radar in charge until he came back. He was exhausted, his nimble legs aching. He couldn't understand how Jesse did this every single day.
He saw the gates opening, and his eyes lit up, thinking Jesse had come back. But all he saw was a guy in a leather jacket, with neatly combed hair and viridescent eyes, With Jesse standing next to him. He could tell the man next to Jesse was nervous, as he was fiddling around with his fingers, something Radar did often.
Radar figured Jesse would want a report of the day, so he zoomed right over, a clipboard in hand.
“Hey, Radar,” he waved, a smile dawning across his face.
“H..Hey, Jesse, wh-who is this?” he scratched his head, and pushed his glasses up to his nose bridge.
“This is Aiden. I just brought him back from Sky City. He's been released from the jail there! His friends are with Lukas, but they'll be coming here soon!”
“A..Aiden?!” he exclaimed. He had heard many stories about Aiden from The Order. They talked about all the bad things he’d done. Radar suddenly felt a bit queasy, but he trusted Jesse. So he faked a smile, sweating a bit.
“Hey, nice to meet you,” Aiden held out his hand, his posture stiff and unmoving, but his eyes held a genuine kindness. He shook his hand, a bit too quickly.
“It's nice to meet you too!” he squeaked, feeling light-headed. He felt the adrenaline from the anxiety start to wear away, and he felt the exhaustion come back. He started to fall over, but Aiden was quick to catch him.
“Whoa, Radar, are you okay?” Jesse asked, as Aiden picked Radar up into his arms.
“I..I'm just tired, hehe,” he reassured. Aiden carried Radar over to a few blocks of wool, laying him down carefully. Radar was incredibly embarrassed, his face growing red. He felt better though, laying down on the wool.
“Thank you,” he muttered, wiping the sweat from his forehead. Aiden just shrugged, smiling softly. Maybe Aiden wasn't as bad as the stories said.
I LOVE THIS IDEA SM
If we have Martin and HoK being Miraculous holders... Does that mean that the Guardian is... Jauffre? Who loses the Divine Miraculous because he hid it in a sock drawer?
I like it. Heʻs the one who knew Martinʻs real identity, so it makes plenty of sense.
Iʻm still trying to envision the Dragon and Bunny miraculouses combined too. That is one weird mythological creature and it sounds cool as heck.
he lives quietly as a monk at weynon priory, near the city of chorrol
