What Did I Mean By This.

I think the problem I have with the dragon prince (beyond a surprising lack of dragons), while finding most of it decently entertaining, is that by far the most interesting aspect of their magic system is dark magic and the other magic doesn't even remotely compare to the point where it feel unintentionally imbalanced. Not to sound like Viren but it IS clever and practical and until any of the other kinds of magic can prove that they're able to cure full body paralysis for the price of a single deer (who get hunted for their meat daily anyway) they don't hold a candle to it.

Yes, other dark magic spells bad, don't trap people in coins forever, but like, for a series that likes to dip its toe into grey morality sometimes, it's weird how 'we should evaluate spells on a case by case basis instead of painting all of a certain kind with the same brush because some of them are incredibly helpful' doesn't seem to be the final conclusion the series is/was headed towards. Am I supposed to give up all helpful drugs because some of them are poisonous or addictive? No, it's about which ones are used in which context and in what amount. Maybe 'regulations good' is just too boring a conclusion or something.

I kind of like the idea of a timebomb rapunzel au because jinx has such ridiculously long hair so it's easy to imagine visually, but the stepmother character would logically be silco, but that doesn't really make sense to me because 1. His problem in season one is everyone kept saying PUT A LEASH ON THAT GIRL SHE'S EXPLODING THINGS and he was like no. She can do whatever she wants. Even to the point where it was actively detrimental to his own revolution. So basically I can't imagine him trying to keep her in a tower. He's not the healthiest of guardians but that's not really something he'd do. Secondly, I don't think he COULD do that if he tried. Keeping someone in a tower does not work if they find a way to explode the tower

Aheem heem... Whimper

There's some stuff in arcane s2 that's bad, like, on a critical analysis level, but there's also some stuff that happens that's just plain weird. Like, did you notice any time someone disappears in s2, nobody goes looking for them? Jayce, Ekko and Heimerdinger go missing and nobody ever mentions it. Same for Mel. It makes it seem like they were only gone for two seconds, but they were definitely gone long enough to notice.

A Great God Grove OC in a vague approximation of Yugo Limbo's style; their name is NumaLuma. They're the God of Freedom. They'd be the villain of GGG2 for secret reasons.

OC meme redraw except for some reason I put a stupid amount of effort into it

The most random detail from AtLA that stuck with me is how much more comfortable Zuko always seemed using his swords compared to his bending. Firebending is such a big deal in the fire nation; even if if he isn't as good with it as Azula (which no doubt contributes to his discomfort), having it is such a big privilege, and yet... Sometimes the gifts we're born with aren't the ones we're meant to use.
