Hey yall I had a fuckin thought

So, as it’s roughly explained, the state alchemist program is a kind of “recruit potential human sacrifices” mechanism, with a side-order of “brute strength for the army”. But basically, the state alchemist title is mostly about being a researcher–given people like Shou Tucker exist, and given that the only requirement to stay a state alchemist is to submit a yearly report of your research that says “look I’m still being a useful scientist”.

So far, so far this is sensible, yeah? Father and the delightful children from down the lane are running a recruitment program for potential human sacrifices. So sure–butter them up! Give them lots of money, get them buddy-buddy with the government, and give them endless resources for research. It’s be pretty easy to trick a state alchemist in that position to open the portal if Sugar ~~Daddy~~Bradley is nudging them to do it.

And I’m still willing to go with this logic for the whole “draft the state alchemists into war” move. They make it pretty clear that was something of a last-ditch effort. And the blood transmutation circle around Amestris was an absolute necessity for Father’s plan. So the risk of a few state alchemists dying or resigning from your Potential Sacrifice Pool is worth it for the completion of the circle.

Now. To get to my fucking thought.

Edward fucking Elric. This fucking fight-me 12 year old troglodyte shows up to the exam and performs circle-less transmutation in front of mother fucking Bradley, demonstrating to one of the seven Actual Fucking Homunculi that he’d already opened the portal. Ed was literally prepped as a human sacrifice before he showed up to Central. A fully set human sacrifice showed up at the homunculi’s door, said “hey look what I can do!”, proved he’d opened the mother fucking portal already, and said “hey yeah hire me”. Human sacrifice, free shipping, no assembly required, handcuffs not included!

They could have just tossed Ed into a shoebox and kept him there until the Promised Day. They wouldn’t even need to make up an excuse he attacked the f u c k i n g president. That’s fucking treason babey. He’s 12, he’s an orphan, he’s from a rural town in buttfuck nowhere, he’s literally the easiest person alive to disappear. They could have arrested him for assassination crimes, kept him in gay baby jail, and just popped him out for the Promised Day

What do they do instead?! “Oh lmao this kid’s great. Let’s give him infinite money, no supervision, no governmental responsibilities, access to all our secret resources, and toss him on a train to who-the-fuck-knows-where-land”

They fucking did that

And like? They then had the audacity to be concerned when Edward “Fight Me” Elric almost got himself killed about 293 times. Just an endless game of “I thought u were watching him” from one homunculus to another when Ed fucking absconds half-way across the globe to go entice some other hostile entity into murdering him to death. That’s the whole series. Every arc is Ed baiting death while the homunculi are in the background like “:/ wish he wouldn’t do that”

This only gets worse when you consider they later learned Al opened the portal too because really?? These two stab-happy globe-trotting public menaces are 40% of your final evil plan for godhood. 40%. Almost half. You couldn’t fucking set aside a cardboard box to keep these idiots in?

We all knew Father was terrible at planning when we learned his thousands-of-years-in-the-making-plan involved him procrastinating until the last five minutes to get his last sacrifice, while he was?? playing chess in his fucking basement, I guess. But it’s like every time I think about it like really think about it I find 7 more reasons Father was a fucking shit idiot moron, king of the stupid fucking idiot club, flesh and blood founder of seven other established dumbasses, all living in their idiot hovel under central, just giving random dumbass 12 year olds infinite money, j u s t b e c a u s e.

People in the replies trying to explain Father’s actions fall into one of three categories

Father didn’t baby-gate Ed because humans are like ants to him and he had no concept of how thoroughly Ed and co. could fuck his shit up

Father and the Hot Topic Brigade didn’t lock Ed up because they recognized the unbridled chaotic 12-year-old energy compressed into such a small vessel and they understood no jail cell on earth would reliably hold this thing

Father and his sin-sonas didn’t put Ed in a box because locking Ed away in their lair would mean dealing with Edward Elric day-in and day-out in their own home for the next four years and frankly even godhood isn’t worth certain flavors of hell.

I would like to add that this entire plan hinged on literally nobody wondering why their country was a perfect circle, when that country regularly uses circles to do alchemy. For like…thousands of years. And it worked until like the last two months.

Here’s the thing about the air nomads.

I introduced a friend to ATLA a few nights ago, and they had only
known two things about the entire show: the cabbage meme, and that Aang
apparently wants to ride every large and dangerous animal he can
possibly find. We got through the first five or so episodes, and my
friend noted that Aang is exactly what a 12-year-old would be like if
given godlike powers, and that this is literally just what he
could do with airbending. He can’t even wield any of the other elements,
and he’s one of the most powerful people on the planet, because he’s an
airbender.

And that got me thinking.

This snippet from Bitter Work is one of the few pieces of concrete information we get about the airbenders, at least in ATLA. Iroh is explaining to Zuko how all four of the elements connect to the world and to each other.

Fire is the element of power, of desire and will, of ambition and the ability to see it through. Power is crucial to the world; without it, there’s no drive, no momentum, no push. But fire can easily grow out of control and become dangerous; it can become unpredictable, unless it is nurtured and watched and structured.

Earth is the element of substance, persistence, and enduring. Earth is strong, consistent, and blunt. It can construct things with a sense of permanence; a house, a town, a walled city. But earth is also stubborn; it’s liable to get stuck, dig in, and stay put even when it’s best to move on.

Water is the element of change, of adaptation, of movement. Water is incredibly powerful both as a liquid and a solid; it will flow and redirect. But it also will change, even when you don’t want it to; ice will melt, liquid will evaporate. A life dedicated to change necessarily involves constant movement, never putting down roots, never letting yourself become too comfortable.

We see only a few flashbacks to Aang’s life in the temples, and we get a sense of who he was and what kind of upbringing he had.

This is a preteen with the power to fucking fly. He’s got no fear of falling, and a much reduced fear of death. There’s a reason why the sages avoid telling the new avatar their status until they turn sixteen; could you imagine a firebender, at twelve years old, learning that they were going to be the most powerful person in the whole world? Depending on that child, that could go so badly.

But the thing about Aang, and the thing about the Air Nomads, is that they were part of the world too. They contributed to the balance, and then they were all but wiped out by Sozin. What was lost, there? Was it freedom? Yes, but I think there’s something else too, and it’s just yet another piece of the utter brilliance of the worldbuilding of ATLA.

To recap: we have power to push us forward; we have stability to keep us strong; we have change to keep us moving.

And then we have this guy.

The air nomads brought fun to the world. They brought a very literal sense of lightheartedness.

Sozin saw this as a weakness. I think a lot of the world did, in ATLA. Why do the Air Nomads bother, right? They’re just up there in their temples, playing games, baking pies in order to throw them as a gag. As Iroh said above, they had pretty great senses of humour, and they didn’t take themselves too seriously.

But that’s a huge part of having a world of balance and peace.

It’s not just about power, or might, or the ability to adapt. You can have all of those, but you also need fun. You need the ability to be vulnerable, to have no ambitions beyond just having a good day. You need to be able to embrace silliness, to nurture play, to have that space where a very specific kind of emotional growth can occur. Fun makes a hard life a little easier. Fun makes your own mortality a little less frightening to grasp. Fun is the spaces in between, that can’t be measured by money or military might. Fun is what nurtures imagination, allows you to see a situation in a whole new light, to find new solutions to problems previously considered impossible.

Fun is what makes a stranger into a friend, rather than an enemy.

Fun helps you see past your differences.

Fun is what fuels curiosity and openmindedness.

Fun is the first thing to die in a war.

OP went and ended hard with the last line.

You know what would be a great idea?

Your typical urban fantasy/supernatural story with your average every day normal girl, and your brooding guy who turns out to be an immortal supernatural in some way.

And you have all the “romantic” cliches and suspense of will they won’t they.

Except the big moment, is basically the brooding immortal supernatural becoming the eternal dad friend to the girl instead of a romance, because ‘my god have you looked at our age difference? You’re a literal child?’ ‘Says the old man who has worst dad jokes than my actual father’

Look instead of a romance between the main two protagonists please picture a friendship where the supernatural immortal’s broodiness is just them being a long suffering old grump who is 1000% likely to adopt people, and the plucky young average girl behaves like an actual teenager and her fatal flaw is that she’s 100% willing to fight in any given situation no matter what.

When supernatural plot happens almost everyone who knows broody supernatural immortal is completely unsurprised that he’s hanging out with plucky heroine because his whole reputation is accidentally adopting stray humans.

…Oh, this is why so many people ship Bruce with his kids.

the funniest thing in the entire pirates of the caribbean series is definitely that one scene in At World’s End where they have parlay but davy jones is part of it, and rather than have him stand in the shallows or something they get a big bucket of water and have in stand on it on shore

who thought of that idea? who thought “put davy jones in a bucket of water” and had the guts to suggest it aloud? and then who went “hey that sounds like a great idea!”

at some point someone told davy jones their idea was for him to stand in a bucket of water and he agreed to it

*stands majestically in a bucket*

ok but notice the trail of buckets behind him meaning he walked from the ocean through three other buckets of water before he got into the one hes standing in

It’s even funnier when you consider how he must have figured all this out in the first place.

Some folks are asking “well, if he can avoid the no-dry-land curse simply by standing in a bucket, doesn’t that ruin his whole motivation?”, but he’s not on dry land here.

The parley takes place on a sandbar – which, for the unfamiliar, is a temporary “island” of sand deposited by breaking waves, unconnected with the shore, that spends most of its time submerged, being exposed only at low tide.

What Jones is doing here is rules-lawyering his curse. Can you imagine the trial and error he must have gone through in order to determine that this would actually work?

“Okay, do islands count as dry land? How about parts of the shore below the high tide mark? Reefs? Shoals? What if I stand in a pool of water on a shoal? Does it have to be seawater, or will any water do? Does it have to be a natural tidepool, or can it be something artificial, like a bucket?”

What I am saying is that there must have been a process.

Pretty sure that this implies that the reverse – a bucket of sand, floating on the water (big bucket with just a bit of sand), would qualify as dry land. That’s absurd, so I’m pretty sure that his lawyer pulled a fast one over the curse governor.

It may be absurd, but the text of the film bears it out. Davy Jones can sense the presence of his heart while it’s at sea, but not while it’s on land (indeed, that’s why he buried it on land in the first place: to break his connection with it) – yet placing the heart in a simple jar of dirt conceals it from Jones’ awareness just as surely as burial on land does, even if the jar is on a boat at the time. Suitably prepared vessels filled with dirt absolutely count as dry land for the purpose of Jones’ curse.

Then the reverse should also be true. If he buried it in a jar of water, no matter how far inland it is, he would be able to sense it. So by this logic, any container of seawater counts as not dry land, ergo, the bucket is a perfectly viable loophole.

Not necessarily. It’s traditionally a lot easier to accidentally get whammied by a curse than it is to weasel around it – I figure that’s why he’s using multiple layers of indirection here. He’s forbidden to set foot on dry land, but it’s technically not dry land (it’s a sandbar, a non-permanent landform exposed only at low tide) and he technically didn’t set foot on it (he’s standing in a bucket of water). It’s entirely possible that either one of those things alone wouldn’t make the grade.

okay but this all raises one further, very important question: if it’s specifically “dry land” he’s forbidden from, what about wetlands.

can Davy Jones fight you in salt marshes? can he throw down in a peat bog?Swamp Battle?

This is the quality content I come to Tumblr for.

could he step on land if his shoes are wet?

No matter how ridiculous PotC gets I will love it. Especially when it results in conversations like this

What if he crawls around on his hands and knees, with his feet raised slightly into the air? Can he walk on his hands? Can he ride around in a litter or a wheelchair?

can he be in a wheelbarrow?

What if he flies over dry land? Like in a hot air balloon, or in the claws of a giant bird?

What if he’s carried by two swallows using a strand of creeper?

European swallows or African swallows?

I love you beautiful beautiful people

me trying to tie who framed roger rabbit, space jam and looney tunes: back in action within the same continuity

“Lola Bunny is Roger and Jessica Rabbit’s daughter.”

Okay, I think I got it:

Yes, this means we are currently living in the dark timeline where Judge Doom destroyed Toontown. (Inspired by @lepowned‘s reply)

this implies there is also an anime town and also a final fantasy town

God I hope so

actualdannyfenton:

Completely underrated potential power for danny, a Haunting Aura. I’ve heard a lot about how ghosts are supposed to give off the energy of fear and terror, strength increasing with the ghosts individual power level. If we assume that danny grows to be as OP as he clearly has the potential to be, his haunting aura would be a flat out devastating power to have. Enemies would cease to be a problem anymore if they were paralyzed with fear when merely approaching him. Eventually no one would dare cross him out of raw fear, and rightfully so.

On the other side of this, what if each haunting aura corresponded to the ghosts unique personal disposition? Most of us headcanon that Danny’s obsession is protecting or defending, would his haunting aura be a calm, safe feeling, a wave of pure tranquility surrounding him at all times? Rather than scaring potential enemies away, he would attract allies. It could help win Amity over, whereas a negative haunting aura would only fuel their dislike for him.

Either way, if Danny wasn’t already overpowered, a haunting aura would make him a force to be reckoned with.

I Know What The Midnight Entity Was…

weary-of-the-questions:

lesserjoke:

whatwecanfic:

Ok so I had an epiphany the other night and I’m pretty much 100% certain I know what the mysterious creature in Midnight was. But first off, let’s review what we know about the Midnight entity.

It was able to survive at least in some form on the surface of the planet where the x-tonic radiation vaporized any living thing in split seconds.

It communicated by repeating what the people in the transport were saying, first with a lag-time, then instantaneously.

It was able to inhabit the body of a human.

It was able to take over the mind of the Doctor.

There was something about the transport that it was drawn to, but it had never attacked a transport previously.

So that’s what we know, and it’s not much to go on. But there is one significant other entity in the Doctor Who canon who exhibits all these traits. Ready for it?

The Midnight Entity is a Tardis.

If a Tardis were somehow to crash onto the surface of Midnight, one could assume that the x-tonic radiation would effect it in the same way as it would any other living creature, vaporizing it instantly. However, the interior of the ship exists on a different dimension than the exterior so we can safely assume that only the exterior would be destroyed, while the interior was preserved. Without a physical exterior however, a Tardis would loose the ability to materialize in another location, essentially trapping it both on, and equally not on the planet.

Aside from It’s human form in “The Doctor’s Wife” we never hear the Tardis speak directly. However, this is not completely true, in another sense we nearly always are hearing the Tardis speak… through the translation matrix. Translation, a Tardis’ main form of communication, is in essence, simply listening to what someone says and repeating it after them. Typically this is done in another language, however, if the Doctor’s Tardis was already translating instantly we wouldn’t hear this, instead it would just sound like an echo. As the Midnight Entity, superseded the link of the Doctor’s Tardis, we would lose the echo first of the other passengers, then of the Doctor. Once the mental link to the Doctor is fully established the translation would become instantaneous, however since the entity is still inhabiting a physical body it would be physically voicing the words as well.

In the Doctor’s Wife, we see that it is possible for a Tardis to inhabit the body of a human.

We know that a Timelord has a mental link that enables him to pilot a Tardis. However, a Tardis is an incredibly powerful entity and one would assume that were it’s motivations malicious, or were it particularly desperate, the same link could be taken advantage of to enable a Tardis to essentially “pilot” a Timelord. In fact, it’s hard to imagine any creature besides a Tardis, having that sort of power.

So under the circumstances I’ve described, a trapped, and damaged Tardis would need two things to escape the Midnight planet. Firstly, it would need an external hull that could withstand the x-tonic radiation. This it found in the transport ship itself. However, there would have been no point in attacking any previous transports until it found the second thing it needed to escape, a Timelord to pilot it. In this light all the creatures actions make sense. The first thing it does is remove the driver’s cabin, because it needs to sever the shuttle controls in order to replace them with itself. Secondly, it finds a way to get it’s consciousness inside the cabin, it does this by taking over Sky’s body. Next it forges a mental link with the Timelord, this process is complicated by the fact that he is already linked to another Tardis. Once that is done, the entity would need to get the Timelord out of the transport and into it’s own interior. I believe that while the exterior of the entity Tardis was lost, there would still be a non-physical portal of some sort to the interior. This would be the shadow the Mechanic sees on the surface of the planet. The if the entity could convince the crew to throw the Doctor out of the transport, then it could line it’s portal up with the door so that they were essentially throwing him into the ship’s interior. Once that was done, then the final step would have been to take on the outer hull of the transport and dematerialize out of there. Unfortunately, it didn’t quite work out that way.

Anyway, so there you have it. The Midnight Entity is a Tardis.

Absolutely brilliant. Also, somebody correct me if I’m wrong, but I’m pretty sure Midnight is the only episode of New Who to not feature the Doctor’s TARDIS at all. The Doctor frequently gets separated from his ship, but here we never even see it in the first place (or at the episode’s end). The lack of the conventional narrative framing in this episode that shots of the TARDIS usually provide adds to Midnight’s general eerieness – but I am completely on board with the suggestion that its place has been usurped by another more malevolent model.

OH. MY, GOD. ghjklbnm

phylumhearts:

like ok, ansem was a very compelling villain in kh but as soon as kh2 rolls around and retcons his whole deal he’s just left with “darkness darkness darkness” which isn’t interesting.
xehanort is great in bbs but from stealing terra’s body on it’s super unclear as to how much he (and his derivative characters) remember and/or care about his original plan.
maleficent is super well acted and has some great interactions but it’s literally never clear what exactly she wants – like, a castle or dominion of some kind but she keeps changing her mind about which one and they don’t really go into why she wants that.
the non-xehanort parts of the organization have interesting moments but mostly get very little development and are hamstrung by the fact that the organization’s motive as a whole is completely vague outside of “we want kingdom hearts”.
then we’re left with pete, who has a pretty clear and understandable character arc from greedy and sees other people as potential means to an end > vulnerable and powerless > indebted to maleficent > genuinely respectful of maleficent’s power. he wants to win an icecream and later assist maleficent however he can and it’s clear why he wants those things and what he’s doing to achieve them. I fucking hate pete and i would never say he’s the best villain but as far as clear and compelling motvations? he’s got em

The thing about emo (as a musical genre and a cultural phenomenon) is, I think, that it was a response to the September 11, 2001 terror attacks and the Bush administration’s painful mishandling thereof.

No, I’m serious. My Chemical Romance was formed as a direct result of Gerard Way witnessing the towers fall. Green Day’s ‘American Idiot’ (an album that, at least as far as I can tell from having been a teenager in Canada at the time, was seminal in influencing the look and sound of emo) is all about the Bush administration – all the lyrics are about life under a democratic dystopia and many reference current events from the time – and it came out in 2004, halfway through the Bush presidency. A bunch of Linkin Park’s stuff makes reference to it also, especially their album ‘Minutes to Midnight’, where they first started moving out of the nu-metal/rap sound they’d been working with before and into a more mainstream emo-rock sound. That album came out in 2007. All of the really big bands with that kind of sound – and most of the smaller ones with more of a punk/hardcore sound but similar themes – were active in the mainstream from around 2001-2010. Many of them didn’t survive past 2009, and those that did either totally reinvented themselves (Fall Out Boy, Panic! At The Disco, MCR for the five minutes it took to produce Danger Days, Linkin Park) or became near-totally irrelevant (Paramore dropped an album sometime in the last two years; did any of you know that? And Green Day haven’t mattered since 21st Century Breakdown, which was released in 2009).

Why? Well, many of you are probably too young to remember this, but the 2001 terror attacks were what really made ‘Islamic terrorism’ a real threat in the minds of most Westerners. We’d never experienced an attack of that scale on American soil, and it was just as the internet was really becoming a mainstay in every house and my generation was getting online. As a result, it was not only a major political event, but it was hugely personal – the coverage was everywhere, in everybody’s home, all the time, and there were a lot of kids being exposed to the coverage in such a way that they often had no good way to process it. I’m not exaggerating when I say it changed the way we live. I’m Canadian and I felt this shit. Before, we could fly to America domestic, without a passport. Now? Half the draconian, ridiculous rules that hold you up at the TSA today were initiated in September and October of 2001. It was the only thing anyone could think of to do – lock down, protect your own. People were scared, on a continental scale.

And to make matters worse, George W. Bush’s government, which had to somehow respond to and take point in the response to this unprecedented event, didn’t seem to have the first foggiest clue what they were doing. This was a government that not only didn’t seem to listen to its people, not only lied blatantly to its people, but did it badly. They made hugely unpopular decisions, including starting a war in the Middle East that dragged in multiple countries and completely failed to achieve its stated goal of catching Osama bin Laden or proving that he had in his control weapons of mass destruction (the whole war was predicated on the fact that these so-called weapons of mass destruction existed, that the Bush administration had good reason to believe that they existed, were under the control of the Taliban, and were going to be used against Western targets, none of which was ever proven to be true).

So, from 2001-2009, the two (TWO) full terms of the Bush presidency, there were a whole lot of people who couldn’t vote (be they under the age of majority, like most of the emo kids I knew, or Canadians unhappily dragged along with the US’ boneheaded foreign policy decisions because we’re allies, also like most of the emo kids I knew) and therefore felt, not only scared of basically the impending end of their world in a way that they hadn’t previously had to feel, and not only angry about being clearly lied to and clumsily manipulated when the truth was obvious to anyone with eyes, but also powerless to do anything to change anything about that. And meanwhile, people kept dying in this pointless war and the president kept trying to hold together the illusion that everything was hunky-dory.

And what was popular with teenagers from about 2001-2009? Yep. Emo.

Emo as a genre was very personal, very focused on the individual (with the exception of the albums I noted above), but lyrically and musically, it fit right with the cultural atmosphere of the time. People were scared of the impending end of their world/their lives? Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge and The Black Parade. People were angry about things they felt powerless to change? From Under The Cork Tree and Decemberunderground. Emo captured what kids were feeling about trying to fit into a world that was so clearly fucked up and broken and pretending to be okay, putting on a strong face to Show The Terrorists They Didn’t Win. Emo was about stripping away the mask, exposing the messy, angry, frightened, sad, true underbelly of American society at the time, and exposing hypocrisy – in individuals as much as in politicians. The hatred of ‘preps’ and ‘posers’? Totally not just a My Immortal thing. Emo was about wearing your heart on your sleeve, about it being okay to mourn, to rage, to be afraid for your life beyond this – and to keep moving forward regardless, step by slow step.

So what changed in 2009 that made the phenomenon fade without so much as a whimper? Simple. Hope. The Audacity of Hope, to be exact.

Barack Obama won his presidency largely because young people supported him. Those were the young people who suffered through feeling helpless and powerless under Bush, who wanted things to change but felt they had no chance of making it so. Barack Obama was a chance. One of his first campaign promises was to end the Iraq war, a promise he followed through on. And even if his presidency hasn’t been perfect, it has never been the Bush administration, with the feeling that the will of the people was being entirely and quietly ignored by those in power to further their own agendas.

What I am saying, then, I guess, is that it’s time to buy stocks in Hot Topic, because whatever happens in the upcoming US presidential election, there are a lot of young people who may soon be needing black, white, and red graphic band tees and Manic Panic hair dye.

From someone who was in American high school in 2001, we were also incredibly terrified for at least the early Bush years. We were all pretty sure that the draft could possibly be reinstated and we could get sucked into the war. Some of my friends and I had plans on how best to get Don’t Ask, Don’t Telled out of the draft. We were all absolutely terrified of the prospect.

#omfg #is this why I’ve been reverting?

tbh I feel like a lot of us in our early/mid 20s who had an “emo” phase are going back (or just listening to more of) music from that part of our lives. and for the life of me I can’t figure out if it’s because we’re just at that age where we can be nostalgic for early teenager angst or if it’s because of the crushing global angst we’re all now very much aware of.

Huh. This is interesting

Yeah, I started listening to American Idiot again. At first I was like nostalgia. Then I blinked , listened, and was like no actually relevance.

I think there is a little bit of nostalgia though, but it’s not for teen angst. It’s because I know I was able to put these albums away before. I remember that things got better. So if we fight, things will get better again.

Huh

night-time-illusions:

Sometimes I wonder if Zexion being able to detect people’s “scents” was a nobody only trait or it’s Ienzo’s ability too and he’s had it since childhood. That scene where he turns to look at Braig and Xehanort has always stood out to me.

I always thought it was a neurodivergent thing tbh which means it was probably Ienzo’s thing too.
