Hello There

Always a panicky mess. They/Them. Go crazy, go stupid

[afloofymess]

Hi there

I figured I should actually have some introductory post. Considering I’ve had my account for years and have done barely anything

I’m Floof, they/them, I’m an adult. My interest tend to just kinda come and go but the most consistent ones currently are:

loz/lu, mha, hermitcraft, life series, Minecraft, dungeons meshi, heartstopper, atla/lok, psychology

I usually just reblog post but I’ll probably post random ramblings here and there. I’ll probably add to this in the future

The Last of Us brain rot is real-

I had these thoughts floating around awhile ago, I kinda forgot about it until now since I’m forcing my roommate’s to watch the first season.

So sorry if this makes little sense

Anyway, so the game and show basically show what happened to the US when the outbreak happened and what the country looks like 20 years later. My thought is what does the rest of the world look like? Episode 2 shows where the epicenter is in Jakarta and what basically starts the entire thing. I don’t remember if the game ever gave an explanation, and since spores aren’t a thing in the show (S1) no one can really say when/what started it. For simplicity sake, I’m going to focus more on the shows world building than the game’s.

Joel tells Ellie that the whole thing started in Jakarta from a mill factory, the product gets shipped out, hits shelf’s Thursday morning, by Friday evening the world is gone. It’s obvious that everyone has figured out what caused the infected to appear, and just after 3 years of the outbreak they already have tools to test if somebody is infected; Bill is seen using one on Frank who makes the comment on how he even has one. Case in point, even the most isolated people have figured out why the apocalypse happened.

It’s safe to say that it was definitely FEDRA that engineered the devices to test for infected but again, this is in the US, what about other countries? An argument could be made that Canada and Mexico could have the same devices because of their proximity and trading and all that, but what about countries across the pond? How did the UK deal with the outbreak and do they have QZ’s or something similar? We also know that mass bombing also took place all across the US, specifically major cities, so did London, Paris, and other big cities face the same thing? What survivors live in Europe, I can’t imagine the language barriers that must’ve existed, probably still exist 20 years later.

I could go so in-depth about this concept PLEASE, I love world building

What's your take on Legend's thoughts on the Master Sword. From what we see, he has a great deal of respect for her, even calling the Master Sword by female pronouns where most others just refer to the sword as 'it' as if she is just an inanimate object and mot a sacred weapon housing a spirit

Okay, well, remember that you asked for MY take on it, not the factual one ;)

So, obviously Legend's relationship with anything regarding being a hero is a bit messier than a lot of the rest, and the Master Sword is not excluded from this.

Given the inherent tragedy of Legend's existence, and the legacy he was born to, (AKA a world where heroes' dying/falling/being corrupted isn't just remembered but the NORM) one would think that the kid's probably got a ton of resentment for anything that makes him more like his predecessors and perhaps, like Time, he'd resent the key attributes of hero-hood in Hyrule: the Triforce, the goddesses, and the sword.

But legend is a li'l shit and he likes to defy expectations: he's friends with the goddesses, has had the Triforce of courage since he was a wee tot, and he actually respects and cares for the Master Sword.

I think it was I Have Questions For You where I said that Legend likely sees a reflection of himself in the state of the sword.

The Master Sword, for all intents and purposes, was forged by the Chosen Hero and then put away in a temple, and while it was moved to the Temple of Time, it's still held in a place of reverence and safety in the games set earlier in the timelines. Legend's is the first game to feature it lost out in the woods with no guards or protective measures or even walls, and while we have no cannon reason for this, the fact remains that it was left there and it was allowed to fall into disrepair so bad that, when eh first found it, Legend couldn't even wield it (he had to continue using his uncle's sword instead).]

My theory? After the Hero of Time's death, both his body and his sword were buried in the Lost Woods; where he came from, and mostly forgotten while the rest of the world moved on. I have a particularly angsty headcannon that in the Downfall Timeline, Ganon himself managed to kill the hero USING the Master Sword, and that's why she was outcast rather than being kept close by the royal family for future use. After all, if she can be turned against them, it's best to let her fall into nothing more than legend.

All that to say, I like to imagine that when Legend found the sword, she was still stained with the blood of the last hero, but just the same, he was still stained with his Uncle's blood.

Because let's face it, prior to Legend finding the Master Sword, his life was a literal hell-scape. he was a small child, who just watched his guardian/parent be brutally murdered in front of him, and then was framed for everything wrong in the kingdom at the time, which caused every adult he should have been able to turn to for help and comfort to instead try and hurt him. He was probably tired, hungry, hurting, and definitely still scared (rabbit form isn't for nothing) when he finally managed to find the Master Sword, the thing Zelda told him could fix everything and- and she's just as broken, and tired, and hurt as he is, just as abandoned, just as forgotten and demonized, all alone and stained with the blood of someone who mattered to her.

I think Legend felt connection.

He didn't just leave her behind as a sword with no worth, despite it being stated, in game, when you draw her, that she's no good against your enemies. Instead, he takes her with him and tries to find a way to fix her, to bring her back around.

Legend reforged Fi himself, albeit with help from the dwarves. He took her from her lowest into something magnificent, even if it's no longer the same as she used to be. just the same, she took him from wandering and fearful child to a hero; they reforged each other, tempered each other into what they are now.

I think, for Legend, his entire identity is more tied to his sword than to his title. She is, in every way, an extension of himself, not just another tool he uses.

Unlike any heroes' before and after, legend never had to prove his worth to her. there was no test, no trial, no life-risking necessary for him to take her. Perhaps this was because Fi knew she wasn't much herself back then, but given how stubborn and set in her ways that she is made to be, it's more likely that she didn't feel the need to try a child, and given the purity of heart we know is inherent to the Hero of Legend, who's every adventure is him giving of himself for others with nothing to gain in return, I thinks he simply saw him as worthy as was, albeit in need of some refining.

I like to think she was gentler with him though, unlike with the older ones. Both because she's seen more, already failed Time, and worn down herself, but also because she would have quickly realized that harshness wouldn't work well on a rabbit-natured hero.

So we have two beings, blade and wielder, who came together at their darkest, and re-defined each other and shaped them into something new, powerful, beautiful, all while still being inherently broken. There's a poetry there, I think, and I have a feeling that's not beyond them; they know what they are, to each other and themselves.

So, there is no saying how Legend feels about the sword really, because, in a way, she's part of him. She need improvement but she's amazing as is. She's just a sword, but it's in the same way that he's just an average nobody. She's a person as much as he is, but where she ends and he begins has been blurred.

He loves her though, I think. And in a way, I think that's the closest to self-love and care that he's come in a long time.

Oh mouthwashing how you are such a beautifully written story about morally grey characters and learning to take responsibility

Made a mouthwashing animation yayyy

God the immortal snail thing is so funny to me

If you don’t know the immortal snail thing was started by Gavin Free in Rooster Teeth’s (RIP) on the Rooster Teeth podcast like 10 years ago and the entire premise is that you get a million dollars but, you have an immortal snail chasing you and if it touches you, you die. And it moves at the speed of a completely normal snail

So watching all the TikTok’s and the recent Wild Life videos paint this snail as some all powerful creature is so funny when I know where it originated from

Adding a new hero or princess to the cast introduces a whole new variable. Much like when TotK was released, it would have taken something extraordinary and mind-blowingly inspiring for me to make such a big change to LU. As for EoW, while it was a fun and memorable adventure through Hyrule, it didn’t quite reach the level needed to be a permanent part of LU. I really like this Link, but the story’s simplicity and lack of a first/second-person perspective make it hard to build on. Plus, this game is more about Zelda than Link, and if anyone were to be featured, it would be her. While EoW may not be groundbreaking, it’s still a charming and significant part of the Zelda universe. I’d love to give this Zelda a special role in LU later in the story. Either a special guest, a cameo or some sort of significant contribution to LU.

That said, I’ve already redesigned her for LU, and since she’s not a major character in the cast, I’m excited to share her now!

Design thought prosses: Most of the girls in LU haven’t been revealed yet, but some embrace their royal identity in their attire. This Zelda gave me the chance to redesign a princess without the usual regal aesthetics. Similar to zelda's blue maiden dress and Skyloft outfit this outfit was to have a more humble look that blends into everyday commoner attire. But In contrast, SS Zelda is vibrant, with Skyloft giving off a feeling of saturated, contrasting colors, much like their avian companions. EoW, however, has a more wholesome, toy-like style, and I wanted her design to reflect more light pastels with calmer saturations. Also the art style it'self in EoW and LA remake is very simple, a redesign didn't need much embellishments. I think after focusing on drawing the boys for so long, I was excited to explore delicate youthful femininity—so I went with a cutesy vintage-doll meets cottagecore mood board to set her look.

You know what the most insane part of this election to me is?

Felons cannot vote in the US

Trump is a convicted felon and can run for presidency

[destiel-news-channel]

*gripping your shoulders and shaking you* you gotta promise me one thing, if nothing else. you have to promise me to live, do you hear me. and if it's for nothing else but spite, LIVE. donald trump wants you to feel defeated and alone. let's show him and all the americans who voted for him that we will not stay quiet, we will not be devided and we will LIVE. we will survive that 78-year old felon, we will OUTLIVE him. so please reach out to friends and family, reach out to each other and STAND TOGETHER.

PLEASE, LIVE!

I love you. stay safe. I love you

I think if the worst feelings are when you finish a book that has resonated with you so much and you don’t know what to do with yourself.

I was assigned to read this book for one of my classes and from the synopsis I thought it was going to be interesting but god did it hit hard at certain points. I’ve never read a memoir before and this book was the first one ever. So many times I just wanted to cry because I knew the feeling she was describing so well. I’ve never had anyway to express how my relationship with my mother is and here is this book that almost perfectly describes it. Yes our experience are not exact but that blame we both have for our mother’s terrible mental health and their dismissal of acknowledgement or seeking help , I never thought someone could relate.
