It's kinda funny that Xivu is the only one to fully keep to their nature.

Savathûn in her love for her family has become raw and honest in quest to claim the echo of navigation.

Oryx has failed to understand the truth of the godwave of fundament, and this failed to keep to his nature.

But Xivu arath,childish Xivu, Sentimental Xivu, heretical Xivu, dethroned Xivu, foolish Xivu, has kept to her nature.

She still wages war, and more than that she loves so much, she loves her brother so much she's willing to betray the sword logic, even if she's not willing to admit it, to get him back

And for the hive love is war.

So Xivu's nature is war and love In equal measure.

And she's keeping to it, no matter what

“Noooo!!!! You don’t understand the character!” What you don’t seem to understand is that they’re my little meow meow.

one of many little details from SAD-ist's "Hog Hunt"

TW: blood, injury, mild gore

One of the many details I noticed from SAD-ist's animation:

Techno, as he's regenerating from the Totem of Undying, jumps out of the cage. But, he's still coming back together, and his arm is still re-forming-- it re-forms around the bars.

So he has to tear his arm out.

He then falls to the ground, the screen blurring to indicate pain, most likely.

But it refocuses and he stands up when he sees Carl with Dream.

This bit of the animation takes up only a few seconds but it's so incredibly detailed I had to share--

Small moments.

Thanatos was raised as a human. Not matter how robotic his mind and body may be, there’s still humanity in him.

Seriously tho I love this post so much

Ok I gotta talk about apotheosis again cuz it’s so good and the characters are amazing. And as much as I want to write a thesis on how Peter could become more powerful than all of them, or Rumi’s need for perfection, I really wanna talk about Thanatos.

Cuz Thanatos is the softest motherfucker in the whole crew.

Don’t laugh yet, hear me out.

The man (robot?) gave up the opportunity to kill a god with his bare hands so Peter could feel a bit more powerful. That’s honestly a big deal for his character. He is created to kill gods, but when Peter asks if he could finish him, Thanatos relents and circumvents his programming. A god still dies, so his program is satisfied, but he’s not the one to do it.

And that seems to be the case with a lot of his actions. His instincts, his heart, is covered by the cold logic of his programming. And honestly, I’m talking about the bear jacket. He didn’t need to try and make Rumi and Peter jackets. That’s not furthering his goal. Neither of them have shown any indication of needing a coat. Rumi would die before he was caught shivering and with Exandroths affinity for fire it’s a wonder Peter knows what cold is. There’s no reason for it, no logic, but Thanatos cares about them. He wants to help them, even by providing just some little creature comforts. It wouldn’t surprise me if in his childhood he had a lot of fur coats or blankets. It’s simultaneously trivial and meaningful.

So that brings us to his sister. And this highlights exactly how much he cares. Cuz he can’t bring himself to say her name. I think he’s said it once or twice, but he keeps distancing himself from her. He still loves her. Denying it and distancing himself from the person he knew is a coping mechanism to protect his painfully soft heart. Even though it’s a point of pride for him to be a godslayer, when it comes to the blight of faith, there is no honor, no glory. He still loves her, like any good brother.

That’s why Rumi’s hope, and his pleads for Thanatos to give the blights a chance, to give Thanatos himself a chance fall on deaf ears. He loves too much. And hope hurts.

It’s not that he’s too tough, or too cold to accept Rumi’s suggestions. It’s that the hope there could be a happy ending for him, or for anyone he loves would hurt him far too much.

I misheard “I really don’t where I’m goin’” as

“Oh Lily don’t know where I’ve gone”

when the lyrics you've been mishearing are more clever than what's actually in the song

favorite arcade lines I forgot to post

im not going to be on tumblr tomorrow (still might check dms), for my own safety and wellbeing. but before i log off, i want to say a couple things

9/11 was a tragedy. everyone knows and sees that. just because i am muslim does not mean that i am going to justify 9/11. whatever bin laden’s motivation was, he did a disgusting thing and killed thousands of innocent people

just because 9/11 was an attack by someone who calls themselves muslims doesnt make all muslims terrorists. i cannot believe this is a sentence i have to type, but here i am. muslims - true muslims - do not condone violence. against anyone. i can go into all the details and the what-ifs and everything, but i dont have the energy for that. just know that violence is strictly frowned upon (note: this does not include self-defense. if somebody is attacking you and you are unable to get away, then fight back. again, there’s no debate on that).

check up on any muslims you know. your friends, neighbours, coworkers, acquaintances, even people you don’t like all that much. we are incredibly stressed out, especially if we live in a western country. just a quick text to see if they’re okay tomorrow will mean a lot

do not think that because you don’t live in america, you’re exempt from this. any western country has this problem, even if you live in a relatively okay area. i do. my friend (who lives in the same area as me) went to walmart and had a hijab on. she was nearly run over (intentionally, the guy was glaring at her and her mother the entire time) while trying to get to the store. she only realized when she got home that it was 9/11. i live in a safe area of canada. this should not be happening. but it is.

if you are in any way, shape, or form, islamophobic, get the hell off my blog
