Sevika protecting Isha (and my feelings below):
I think the most heartbreaking, yet endearing, part of this whole scene, is that Sevika only has one arm.
in holding onto Isha, she renders herself defenseless. she has no clue what she's running into, but she won't put Isha down. she runs blind and unable to quickly fight back with her remaining arm.
and she doesn't give Isha a chance to run on her own. she just holds her. doesn't get angry when she fights her. doesn't scold her. just holds her tighter. and keeping a squirmy kids still is hard enough with two arms, let alone a kid fighting you as hard as she can with just one.
and she's soft with her, just in general. none of that normal tug and sharpness we're used to seeing. she's of course fighting her enough to keep her from slipping out of her grasp, but that's it.
I just. I'm not normal about them.
mother and child, your honor.

I saw a bunch of comments on this hilarious animatic of that funny clip where someone tells Ranboo to give Tubbo back to Tommy about them going to war over him, and honestly, that’s just so freaking funny.
So anyway, AU where Dream dies via Sam after bringing back Tommy and Wilbur, and everyone gets therapy, and tones things down. Ranboo and Tommy use the Hotel Rivalry as a disguise for the true war-the war for Tubbo. It involves trying to out gift each other, trying to bribe Michael, and many, many daily stealings of the Tubbo when he’s hanging out with one of them. At some point, other server members get involved, as well as people not from the server, because Tubbo has many siblings and father-figures, and they might as well join in, right? They have just as much right as anyone to try and win him over, and it looks like fun.
Tubbo’s just glad that they’re all bonding…even if getting snatched at least once a week is mildly irritating.
I can revise this moment… FOREVER
it gets me a little irritated when people act like mono isn't supposed to be an intrinsically compassionate foil to six's character.
every moment of his character in cutscenes with six demonstrates kindness and compassion. his hand is always reaching out to offer comfort and reassurance. when they're separated, despite the fact that he's answering the tower's call, he still goes out of his way to ensure that him and six are reunited and that he is safe again instead of continuing to push forth to the pale city.
the only aggression he shows is towards entities that are hostile to himself. he does what he has to do to survive, which is something that him and six do have in common. but him smashing the bullies open or lighting the doctor on fire doesn't negate the fact that he is being portrayed as a child who is inherently more tender-hearted and trusting than the girl he's travelling with.
mono is afraid of being alone. by the time we pick up six's story again within the maw, we can see that she has become adept at being alone. they're stark opposites.
even the simple theory of shapes in character design tells us so much about the two of them. mono's shape is square. this indicates to us that he is strong, sturdy, reliable, and supportive. six's shape is triangular. triangles signify that a character is cunning, sneaky and dangerous. (sometimes it is used to indicate that a character is 'evil,' but we know all too well as a fandom that using that term to describe six is doing her a complete disservice and shows a deep misunderstanding of her character.)
all this to say that it's upsetting that people see the need to try and make mono out to be more edgy than he actually is, often just in retaliation against the misunderstandings people have about six's nature. this series is very open to interpretation, so it's fair enough if you personally believe him to have a darker side. but it's my personal belief that isn't the correct portrayal of his character and there's very little evidence of that being the case within the series.
Shoutout to the one person who reblogged my WIP like 4 times cause it's motivating me into getting my ass in gear to finish these drawings
Warrior Cats AU
Treeclan and Snowclan have been at war for many seasons. Two young apprentices discover that in order to stop the war…they may need to leave it behind all together.
Or, Tubbo and Tommy are cats, and are really tired of their two clans fighting all the time. One day they get a message from Starclan cat Drista, who tells them to get out of town and live life while they still can, so they do.
The clingy duo journey around, shedding their warrior origins as they make friends and learn to live in a world without constant battle. As they do, they accidentally create a clan of their own and fulfill a prophecy nobody even told them about.
(Which…Â
Some random Starclan cat: Oh, wow, they caught on quick. Usually takes them awhile to figure out what a prophecy means.
Drista, who didn’t say a word about the prophecy she was suppose to give them, and instead hinted at the clans destroying themselves because of all the fighting, and told them they should just get out of dodge while they could, because why be cryptic when you can just get stuff done: Weird.)
Can we talk about—for a sec—the fact that the plot line about the siblings losing their memories of Ben's death makes no sense in regards to previous seasons?
The lines that they were supposedly fed by Reginald, as revealed in season 4, are that "nobody was responsible".
But in S2 E10, in the opening scene of Ben's funeral, Reginald directly blames them and states that they "allowed" Ben to die on the mission.
Them retconning it is so much less interesting than if it actually WAS the UA's fault that he died, to some extent. Ben's death was the final nail in the coffin for the UA, causing them to split up. It's not a stretch to say that the guilt was what did it in the end.
Idk. I won't lie, I literally gasped when Jennifer and Ben got shot and it was shown that it was Reginald—and that shot of their corpses as the title card is fucking GORGEOUS—but I don't think a lot of this season was thought out in regards to the other seasons. This is just one of many problems such as inconsistencies, plot holes, character assassinations, etc.
