Can Confirm, Turning To Dust Takes Less Time Than You Might Think. Unfortunately Little Of The Post-mortem

Im so enchanted by how the Master is originally characterized. He's devious and power hungry and his whole gimmick is hypnotism and disguise and he's frankly a little stupid but when he isn't manipulating people or allying himself with destructive forces out of personal gain, it's always out of fear and it seems to be an expected outcome that he'll end up backed into a corner and lash out. It only takes two serials for us to learn that the master is SCARED of the doctor, tied up with complicated feelings of care and resentment. This isn't something new who lacks, per se, but their fear is always hidden under their veneer of a cackling maniac. it's very clear from Delgados performance that this pervasive fear is a feature, not a bug, and he is not just naturally reserved, careful, and meticulous because he's a machiavellian evil genius, its because he's paranoid.

Rare confirmation? Wow.

Does anyone has a theory/analysis on why Hea is the only one(?) who's got the hands like that above her head, almost like a crown?

For reference, here's Hea, and here's some examples that don't have the hands like that

I'm making a pmv and it just hit me now that she seems to be the only one who got the hands in that weird shape

i feel like there has to be some obvious metaphor or meaning hidden but i really can't tell what rn lol

Imo it either looks like a crown, or a star. I think it's meant to be a crown? But I prefer the idea that it's meant to be a star xP Because then it might mean that she was terrified of the fire going out, unaware/afraid to see that she can shine just as bright by herself (metaphorically, we're not in the burned grey lmao), and that she never needed the flames on the walls

Or maybe it's meant to look like the Prisoner's crown? That's the very first thing that came to my mind honestly, but i do prefer the star idea >v<

Tumblr isn't giving us back the boops for ides of march so I will do it myself.

Get your boops everyone!!!

I just put these together real quick feel free to use them.

Reblogging so Crowley can.

Boromir: One does not simply walk into Mordor.

Spread their names!

ok so hear me out

I dont post things about me much, but I’m a bit proud of this. I got really into Horizon: Zero Dawn by accident, and realized after playing it a bunch that I was super close to 100% achievements. So I pushed and got there.

So then along comes the sequel, Forbidden West. I delayed a couple years, but finished the story a while ago. I kept itching for more because I just love this world and story and characters.

Today I finished everything.

I’m just really pleased about this.

So now 100% on Horizon games is a thing for me. I don’t think I’m going to 100% the Lego one, but I’m so ready to invest in Horizon 3 whenever it happens.

Just like the Samwise quote, this is one of the stories that sticks with me because the heroes keep fighting no matter how dark it looks, because there’s good worth fighting for. It’s a reminder I’m holding close the way the world is right now. Those same feelings are built into the song too, so of course I’ve had that on loop as well:

I am raindrops in the flood

I am emptiness, I am hope

I am lonely in a crowd

But when you hear me, you'll be near me

Stay here with me

in the flood

Stuff kids on tumblr better relearn

1. You are responsible for your own media experience. 

2. There is such a thing as a healthy level of avoidance towards topics that make you feel unwell or even (in a real-life clinical definition of the term) trigger you - but you are the one to actively take care of what you view.

3. Avoiding does not mean policing others.

4. You have no right to tell artists to censor themselves - you may criticize what others do, you may dislike it, that’s fine - but actively asking for censorship when you could easily unfollow or block a person just makes you look incompetent in your use of the internet.

5. Do not give people on tumblr or /any/ website the responsibility for your emotional well-being. Because these people do not even know you so no, you have no right to ask them to take care of you.

Also this thing.

Ironically, the Sea of Thieves tall tale is the worst offender, though made by fans.

It's great as a way to lure SoT players into Monkey Island, but they botched it in a few ways; mischaracterisation of Cate Capsize, relying on one of the limited time Adventures for build-up, taking place immediately after Curse but not referencing Demon LeChuck in favour of the most toned down version of his zombie form yet, incredibly tedious movement and not playing around enough with the inherently weird in-universe explanation; it doesn't take place on the real Meleé or Monkey islands and instead in the delusional realm of Guybrush's memories, distorted by his nemesis.

Rare had the chance to give us a world of Guybrush's own desires turned against him by LeChuck and it's just Meleé island but he's a popular has-been, and not a hated has been? Maybe it's so lukewarm because of the demographic of SoT, but come on. We could have had the nightmare pirate LeChuck positioning Guybrush in a much wackier torment nexus.

Sorry for the rant, and don't get me started on the questionable ending of Guybrush apologising to the fake townsfolk.

It's really funny that MI2 predicted Guybrush as obnoxiously stuck in the past, clinging to iconic moments and places that made him famous until everyone got bored with him completely, only for the franchise to become exactly that after Tales. We got the beautifully and artfully made Sea of Thieves DLC, which really does capture the FEEL of the original SoMI but in 3D, but there's nothing original about it, it's literally made TO be a retread, even narratively. Then Return came, and while we have a lot more original content, characters, and places, the entire story still REVOLVES around LeChuck and the Secret. Playing it with my brother was frustrating because while we both grew up with MI3 and MI4 (and the first half of Tales), he only got to briefly play the other games Return puts a LOT of faith in the idea that you will recognize places and events that shouldn't necessarily define Guybrush as a character. This fandom has been full of mi1+mi2 elitists for forever but now it feels like they've snuck into the dev team, too.
