imagine being éowyn in the lord of the rings trilogy. your uncle the king is being mind controlled by an evil wizard until said evil wizard's cooler version shows up and frees him. he is accompanied by an elf, a dwarf, and the hottest guy you've ever met. the hot guy also happens to be 87 years old and maybe still not over his immortal elf girlfriend but he respects and listens to you so you're shooting your shot. your geriatric hotguy situationship turns you down the night before the biggest battle ever then goes ghost hunting in the mountains. you decide to go to battle because you'll either help save your people or die in a really cool and honorable way. you then kill middle earth satan's number one henchman with the power of loophole and being a woman (you are also helped in doing this by a 4 foot tall stoner). then you get to marry faramir. 10/10 no notes my girl went through it all

am I the only one that thinks about how totally BIZARRE Timelords are. Like what do u mean there’s a basically unkillable immortal face-changer that can memorise and be fluent in literally billions of languages. What do u mean there’s a whole race of these things that can always see nearly every possible outcome of a scenario just not necessarily how to get there. What do u mean they legitimately SPAWN their offspring in like it’s a fucking online lobby. What do u mean all this shit is only attainable if ur rich. What do u mean these things just casually time travel and are like the time ‘n space police. What do u mean they’re telepathic. What do u mean they had several universe-shattering wars with a race of evil squid. What do u mean they have two hearts and two brain stems and invented a bomb that could kapow and collapse whole timelines but only in an emergency.
AND WHAT DO U MEAN THIS IS THE MOST FEARED ONE OF THEM ALL?!

I think a lot about Malak's "If I'd been in your place, could I have been redeemed too?" from the light side ending for several reasons. For one it's one of the few times in the game that Malak isn't just being presented as the two-dimensional villain he is in the rest of the story. For the second, it's another example of kotor 1 pushing it's "brainwashing to the light side=redemption" thing, which is... interesting.
And for the third: imagining the Jedi council actually trying their brainwashing plan with Malak is really funny. Because like 40% of why brainwashing Revan worked is because they're the most anonymous person in existence. And Malak just, isn't.
Look at them
No one is going to look at brainwashed Revan and think that they're the dark lord of the Sith, partly because everyone thought Revan was dead, but also because under that mask they could be literally anyone. Most people in the galaxy probably had their own headcanons for what Revan looked like, and they probably didn't imagine the average Joe/Jane that you play as during the game.
Meanwhile a brainwashed Malak will have heard how he 'looks just like that dead sith lord' a hundred times before even leaving Taris.
@emeraldvsociety and I put together OUR interpretation of how the Trials of the Jedi postcards fit together one after the other into one coherant conversation.
And if we're wrong sue us lol
"What do you hear, when you listen to the Force? It sings to us all — we are each a melody within its great, all-encompassing symphony. What do you hear?"
-Avar Kriss
"I hear peace. I hear silence. I hear the great mystery calling to me from the endless library of the Force. A story for everyone and everything. Far too many to be read in any person's lifetime…but imagine what you could learn if you tried. That library is within me—and I never want to leave."
-Reath Silas
"I choose to explore. The Force is an endless sea. The secrets hidden in its depths exceed anything we can imagine. Try things. Experiment. What's the worst that can happen?"
-Elzar Mann
"The flame of the Force burns so bright that sometimes it blocks out all I see. It sweeps me up and then I'm burning too, bringing light everywhere I go. The fire can destroy — it could even destroy me. But that, I will not allow. I am a Jedi."
-Bell Zettifar
"I reject your dogma. I see the Force as clearly as any other Jedi. To me, it is darkness, the deepest part of night. But that does not mean I am evil, or lost. Not only by the light might people be saved. The dark can be a savior too."
-Azlin Rell
"Look up. Look outward. The great sweep of the night sky — the light of so many bright stars touching you all at once, though the time and distance journeyed varies greatly. That is the Force, and the wisdom of the Jedi Order passed down through the generations. Our forebears found the good ways, the true ways — we must honor them."
-Stellan Gios
"Listen for the wind. That is the Force. A gentle, calming breeze, or a tearing gale. We can resist it, or use it to speed us on our way. We each choose our own path. The Force acts upon us, but the choice is always ours."
-Loden Greatstorm
"What is the Force? An obstacle. Just a thing in my way. Something to be destroyed. I am the only one who can do it. And so I will."
-Marchion Ro
"The Force is a blade. Do you think it cannot cut you? It has two edges. Both are sharper than anything you've ever touched. The trick is in the wielding. Use the wrong side, and the injury done might only be to yourself."
-Porter Engle
So I finally read the conclusion of the High Republic Star Wars book series "Trials of the Jedi" by Charles Soule and I can admit that half of the fates of the characters were expected but most endings managed to surprise me.
I was honestly expecting for most of our favourite main characters to end up dead (talking about Avar, Elzar, Burryaga etc.) but was glad that I was mistaken.
Avar and Elzar being the ones on whose shoulders will rest the fate of the galaxy was kinda expected as they obviously weren't going to get a happy ending but at least they're alive?
I was half expecting Reath to fall to the darkside (because yk Azlin Rell) but he managed to surprise me. Gotta admit I love their dynamic and that Reath acknowledges to himself that he had 3 masters including Azlin. Hopefully we will get an extra story featuring both of them as at the end Reath is shown to be searching for Azlin. But Rell making the kyber crystal bleed, turning it red from green implies that he will become a Sith? (as far as I understood).
Ghirra getting away with being a Nihil accomplice and once again having a seat of power in the Senate was truly in character for her but kind of annoying to be honest.
Porter finally defeating Viess and trying to come to terms with the death of his sister was a nice touch (he's such a badass character).
Half of the characters previously mentioned barely played any part in the conclusion but that was to be expected when there is a huge amount of them. Still kind of sad though.
As for the main antagonist, Marchion Ro, I was fully expecting him to have some horrid death or for Bell to kill him in an act of misguided revenge in order to avange his fallen Master Loden Greatstorm. Imagine my surprise when he was, in fact, defeated by Bell but held accountable for his actions and imprisoned instead of being dead.
The scene of his trial was very funny by the way.
This line alone made me burst out laughing: "𝘈𝘵𝘵𝘦𝘮𝘱𝘵𝘦𝘥 𝘨𝘦𝘯𝘰𝘤𝘪𝘥𝘦 𝘰𝘯 𝘢 𝘴𝘤𝘢𝘭𝘦 𝘴𝘰 𝘷𝘢𝘴𝘵 𝘪𝘵 𝘥𝘦𝘧𝘪𝘦𝘴 𝘤𝘰𝘮𝘱𝘳𝘦𝘩𝘦𝘯𝘴𝘪𝘰𝘯. 𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘢𝘵𝘵𝘦𝘮𝘱𝘵𝘦𝘥 𝘮𝘶𝘳𝘥𝘦𝘳 𝘰𝘧 𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘳𝘺 𝘣𝘦𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘪𝘯 𝘦𝘹𝘪𝘴𝘵𝘦𝘯𝘤𝘦". I mean he IS Marchion Ro, did you expect any less? lmao
Overall, I am content by the ending of the series but the ending of Marchion being left all alone and dying old and forgotten was valid but hard for me because he's my favourite character (I do admit I love megalomaniacs with a god complex haha). But I can take that in stride as throughout all the books he remained a badass mastermind and it was bound to happen. His ambition to kill all life in the galaxy was a shocking change of plans but then again also in character for him.
I can't stress how much I love the High Republic series, it was such a great experience.
Dumbledore bashing in Tomarry fics is kind of overdone at this point. Fics where Dumbledore observes Harry fall hard and fast (lmao, no pun intended) for Diary/ Ring/ Time Travelling Tom has potential for such delicious drama.
I will die on this hill that Albus Legilimens Dumbledore heard Harry simping over Tom's beauty and charisma in the Memories in HBP and almost had an aneurysm. His beloved protégé, the boy he had moulded into Light's Biggest Weapon is about to repeat his greatest mistake - falling for Pretty Dark Lords?!!
He was absolutely side eyeing Harry in HBP.
Give me fics where Dumbledore is kind of traumatized and is haunted by feelings of deja vu at seeing Harry get drawn into Tom's orbit, but as he sees Tom, someone he had declared defacto as a monster incapable of love, growing increasingly possessive and fond of Harry is forced to admit he may have had been wrong.
Dumbledore once seeing Harry and Tom's growing closeness as an impending catastrophe, is now moved despite himself, overcome with a sense of nostalgia and melancholia.
"Ah, to be young and feel love's keen sting.." he would mumble.
For someone who is an advocate of power of love, seeing Tom transform into something different than the macabre young man he knew... wouldn't it be the greatest proof?
Also, Dumbledore will be the only one who would be able to empathize with Harry's dilemma.
Give me a man-to-man chat between two queer men from two generations about the pain of loving charismatic Dark Lords please

You're seriously telling me that there's no Star Wars x DC crossover where Deathstroke is a Sith Lord and Dick Grayson is his apprentice?
I mean they literally address each other as "master" and "apprentice" so I thought someone must have surely thought about that and written a fanfiction but apparently not?? Ngl I'm sad rn :/
Found out about the new High Republic book "Into the Light" by Claudia Gray 2 days ago, finished it in one day (I mean wouldn't expect less from this series) and you're telling me there's another one (and the final one at that) to be released this June??
To be clear, one of my favourite characters is Marchion and he has been getting sloppy lately, so.. (God save t̶h̶e̶ q̶u̶e̶e̶n̶ Marchion Ro)
Thoughts on c!Dream and c!Techno’s relationship? (Especially after the Quackity live stream—)
Screams yells falls off the chair hits the walls
C!RIVALSDUO MY BELOVED
I have thoughts and I have A LOT OF THEM
They have a neutral relationship and avoid being on opposing sides, because Dream and Techno, the overpreparing, overstrategizing bastards they are, know that going against one another is likely to result in mutually assured destruction. Both know that a fight with the other is not one worth having if it can be avoided.
I think that the relationship between c!Technoblade and c!Dream is one based mainly on mutual respect and understanding.
On a server full of dysfunctional relationships and no proper communication, the two have managed to build an allyship without much negotiation. It's like the two just understand each other naturally and can easily set their boundaries with barely any verbal communication.
Dream knows Technoblade isn't one to trust easily, Technoblade knows Dream is someone with his own goals and pursuits who isn't to be trusted. The true nature of their relationship has been clear to them from the very start – they aren't friends, they have no commitment to each other, they are neutrals whose goals just so happen to have crossed in this one moment. Technoblade had been used and had his motivations and feelings disregarded twice, only for his agency to finally be acknowledged by the server's "villain", of all people, who never hid his intentions of using Technoblade's strength to help in his own goals.
Technoblade and Dream are two of the strongest players on the Dream SMP which has played a massive role in how they're treated by the rest of the server: with fear, with caution, but in each other's eyes, they are equals. I said before that they are neutrals, but considering how terrible their relationships with the rest of the server are, their neutral relationship leans towards a positive one.
They are two people traversing the world in their own ways, with their own pursuits, and their paths only intersect on occasion. And when those paths cross, they can be sure that the other will listen, if not out of genuine interest then so as to avoid a conflict.
It is incredible how different yet similar the two are. They are both powerful and feared, they have both been dehumanized by others, both have an "ends justify the means" mentality that enables them to do horrible things in pursuit of their personal goals (although Dream takes that mentality to an extreme).
Yet Technoblade is an anarchist - someone looking to destroy hierarchies so that people can't be exploited by someone in a position of power or be corrupted from possessing power.
And Dream is someone looking for power so that he can have enough influence to force people into meeting his wishes.
Technoblade seeks to have control over his own life and to give control to others, Dream seeks to have control over others as a method of achieving his goals. And this is one of the few areas where their ideals can potentially conflict. But Technoblade isn't exactly against using coercive power to get his goals (e.g. my man committed terrorism against nations on multiple occasions), he only has issues with institutional power, and Dream isn't an institution.
People judge Techno for teaming with the "tyrant", the "abuser", but the thing is, Technoblade doesn't really know what Dream's role on the server is and what he has done. He wasn't there to witness the L'Manburg revolution, wasn't there for the Disc War, he didn't see Exile, also wasn't there to hear Quackity, Wilbur and Tommy preach their anti-Dream propaganda *coughs*. All he knows is that Dream isn't a fan of the local governments and wants them gone. So, as far as Technoblade is concerned, their goals aren't contradictory, quite the opposite – they align. Both don't like governments/nations, if for different reasons.
And then there's the favor scene.
A lot of people despise Technoblade for offering to give up Tommy at that moment, but I think that situation is far more complicated than people think. I think the interaction was mostly Dream and Technoblade testing the waters, seeing each other's level of commitment.
When Technoblade said "this guy is with me" he signalled to Dream: "this is something I am committed to." When he said "unless you want to call in that favor" it was him also signalling just HOW committed he was to Tommy – that the only way he'd consider giving him up is if his life debt was cashed in.
Techno didn't have to bring up the favor, yet he did. It could have been him just trying to get rid of it or could've been him warning Tommy about it. Telling his ally that there's something Dream can use against him. I am leaning towards the latter.
As I said before, rivalsduo communicate without actually communicating. Their negotiations are done through subtle hints. There's little need for words between the two. As a result of this people took the favor scene at face value when I believe there was a lot more to it between the lines. It wasn't just Technoblade going "oh yeah sure you can just take this child off my hands if you want to, I don't care about him". Quite the opposite, it was Techno telling Dream "I will fight for this and the only thing that can make me step down is you using up the only bit of leverage you have on me."
The rivalsduo crumbs we got in the Quackity stream are very interesting.
Because:
We got Dream calling Technoblade his ally even though they only allied for Doomsday
We got Dream risking his physical wellbeing for Technoblade
Now originally I interpreted this as a clear indication of Dream caring about Techno's safety, because who would risk torture for a person they don't care about, but then I saw this interpretation of the scene and realized that c!Dream is the exact kind of person to do that, the ruthless bastard that he is. So Dream could've lied about his current stance with Techno, or he could've been truthful and does, to some degree, care about him.
I think Dream will actively avoid getting into conflict with Techno, if not because he cares then because Technoblade is not someone you want to have as your enemy. Dream gains far more benefit from being allied/neutral with Techno.
(also Technoblade would be the perfect support for Dream if there is ever a redemption arc because the two are on good terms and Technoblade has a tendency to see past people's actions into their motivations so if there's anyone on the server who might, if not forgive, then sympathize with Dream and be willing to over him help in redeeming himself, it's him and maybe Phil)
please I can never stop crying about Syndicate!Dream AUs
Currently obsessed with Hannibal (the funny thing is I don't like Hannibal as a character (my fav is Will and maybe Clarice too) but I still want to read all of the books and give him a chance to grow on me haha)

Wanted to share my favourite 2D pixel psychological horror with you called "Psicosis". It's a Spanish game created by Sebastian Gomez Briceño which follows a young boy called William who lives with his mom and struggles with bullying as well as psychosis (having difficulty to differentiate between dreams and reality) which severely affects his mind.
It has 3 endings plus some secret items which you can collect and see what happens 👀
You can choose from 3 languages in game (Spanish, Portuguese or English). I admit that if you play in English it has some mistakes but the plot and visuals are totally worth it 👍
