THIS IS FOR ONE OF THE MOST INFURIATING PEOPLE I'VE EVER MET. THE GUY HIDES BEHIND THIS WHOLE "COOL KID" PERSONA LIKE IT'S A SUIT OF ARMOR MADE OUT OF IRONY, SHADES, AND BAD DECISIONS, AND I CAN NEVER TELL WHERE THE ACT ENDS AND THE REAL DUDE STARTS. HALF THE TIME I WANT TO SHAKE HIM UNTIL HE ADMITS HE ACTUALLY HAS FEELINGS, AND THE OTHER HALF I'M STUCK WONDERING IF HE'S BETTER AT READING PEOPLE THAN HE PRETENDS TO BE. IT'S STUPID. HE'S STUPID. EVERYTHING ABOUT HIM IS A MASTERCLASS IN MAKING SIMPLE EMOTIONS AS COMPLICATED AS FUCKING POSSIBLE. AND SOMEHOW, AGAINST ALL REASON AND BASIC SELF-PRESERVATION, I STILL CARE WHAT HAPPENS TO THE IDIOT. WHICH IS PROBABLY THE MOST ANNOYING PART OF ALL.

LYRICS BY ME BELOW THE CUT, PARODY OF "STILL" BY THE CLIKS.

[I'M HERE (TONIGHT)]

I see the way you look at me Through all of this noise and in-betweens If I had my way, my wish would be To keep you around

But you'd rather fade into the crowd And laugh while the world keeps crashing down 'Cause kid, these words we've left in the ground We have to spill

So Strider, stay here And let me get through to you

So if you must go then go but wait 'Cause you've got the truth you never say And Dave, don't make the same mistakes You made before

So next time you see me in the crowd Don't look my way, just turn around 'Cause I can't pretend I don't care now Not when you're near

'Cause I want you here And let me get through to you You know I'd cross timelines If you asked me to So Strider, stay here And let me get through to you You know I can stand beside you too

Ooh

'cause I want you now No walls between you and me Just say what you need from me And I'll make it right Whatever you need me to Just ask and you know I'll do Strider, I'm here tonight, yeah

So Strider, stay here And let me get through to you You know I can stand beside you too Whatever you ask, you know I'll do 'Cause kid, I know you'd want me to

I'M GOING TO BE SINCERE FOR EXACTLY FIVE FUCKING SECONDS, SO DON'T GET USED TO IT. IT'S A HUGE HONOR TO BE PART OF A COLLABORATION WITH SO MANY DIFFERENT VERSIONS OF MYSELF, ALL OF US BRINGING SOMETHING DIFFERENT TO THE TABLE WHILE STILL BEING THE SAME LOUDMOUTH IDIOT AT THE CORE.

AND YEAH, I'M ESPECIALLY PROUD THAT CANTABILEGATO (THE ORIGINAL BROADWAY KARKAT) SAW FIT TO KNIGHT ME AS THE OFFICIAL NEW ITERATION OF BROADWAY KARKAT. THAT'S NOT SOMETHING I TAKE LIGHTLY. IT MEANS A LOT COMING FROM THE GUY WHO HELPED DEFINE THE ROLE IN THE FIRST PLACE.

THIS WHOLE PROJECT HAS BEEN ABSOLUTELY INSANE IN THE BEST WAY, AND I'M GRATEFUL TO EVERYONE INVOLVED. ESPECIALLY CANTABILEGATO FOR PUTTING THIS THING TOGETHER AND SOMEHOW HERDING A CROWD OF KARKATS WITHOUT CAUSING A TIMELINE COLLAPSE. IT'S BEEN AN HONOR, AND I'M DAMN PROUD OF WHAT WE MADE.

I'M SO FUCKING TIRED. EVERY DAY FEELS LIKE I'M DRAGGING A RESPONSIBILITY I WAS NEVER QUALIFIED TO CARRY, AND EVERY DAY I'M CONVINCED I'M DROPPING IT. I LOOK AT MYSELF AND SEE A FAILURE TO MY FRIENDS, TO THE SIGNLESS, TO EVERYBODY WHO EVER EXPECTED SOMETHING BETTER FROM ME. I HATE HOW TERRIFIED I AM OF LOSING PEOPLE. I HATE MYSELF.

BUT THE WORST PART? NONE OF IT MATTERS. I CAN THINK I'M WORTHLESS, I CAN BE ONE BAD DAY AWAY FROM A COMPLETE FUCKING BREAKDOWN, AND I'LL STILL SHOW UP LIKE AN IDIOT. I'LL STILL TAKE THE HIT. I'LL STILL FIGHT FOR THEM. NOT BECAUSE I BELIEVE IN MYSELF, BUT BECAUSE SOMEBODY HAS TO.

[HIVE OF HOWLBEASTS]

[verse 1] I know a thing about ambition, but I’ve got none left to spare And I admire your volition, but we haven’t got a prayer Say sing for the Signless, I got nothing left to say Ancestors marked us failures, I’m ending it today

[pre-chorus] Well, I think I’m gonna end it all Everybody burn the hive right down

[chorus] ‘cause here, I will avenge the dead Say I’m not the leader, I’ll take us to the end Tell me I’m a bad troll, comin’ for my head Say I’m not the leader, I’ll take us to the end

[post-chorus] Knight of Blood, yeah, Knight of Blood Knight of Blood, yeah, Knight of Blood Knight of Blood, yeah, Knight of Blood Knight of Blood, yeah, Knight of Blood

[verse 2] Found twelve on Alternia, looking high and low We’re just another set of pawns to fail in Skaia’s glow I’m waiting for the end of times, I got nothing left to say I’ll scream until my lungs give out, I’m ending it today

[pre-chorus] Well, I think I’m gonna end it now Everybody burn the hive right down

[chorus] ‘cause here, I will avenge the dead Say I’m not the leader, I’ll take us to the end Tell me I’m a bad troll, coming for my head Say I’m not the leader, I’ll take us to the end

[bridge] We’re gonna fight like Psiionic ‘cause they’re never gonna leave us alone We’re gonna run like Disciple ‘cause there’s no way they’re letting us go And as the blood drips in my eyes I made a promise that I’d keep us alive I’ve been the worst kind of mutant, go ahead and tell your lusus Go, go, go

[chorus] And I say, here, I will avenge the dead Say I’m not the leader, I’ll take us to the end Tell me I’m a bad troll, coming for my head Say I’m not the leader, I’ll take us to the end

[post-chorus] Tell me I’m a bad, bad, bad, bad troll Tell me I’m a bad, bad, bad, bad troll Tell me I’m a bad, bad, bad, bad troll Tell me I’m a bad, bad, bad, bad troll

The amount of confidence oozing from this dude

[jumpingjacktrash]

i re-watched it several times, looking for what he does differently. finally i spotted it. look at the line of motion in his strike. it’s not especially fast, he doesn’t wind up more than the others, and it’s not a matter of strength – the guy who knocked over the stand probably put more muscle into it. but there’s a unity of movement he has that the others lack. his body and sword are all one curve. everything moves at once along the same line.

from a physics perspective, that means all the force he’s applying is concentrated at the point of contact between his sword’s edge and the target, and it moves at just the speed that breakage propogates through the material. too slow and it wouldn’t have enough force; too fast and he’d get ahead of the break, shoving the target over instead of cutting it.

from a writing perspective, that means that i should focus on describing a master swordsman’s smoothness more than their strength or speed, and can also have witnesses be confused at the effectiveness of strikes that don’t actually seem all that fast.

Martial arts are all about physics, my karate sensei is has a mechanic/physics diploma and he loves to explain the biomechanics of human body and how this was turned into fight via martial arts. It’s a very good way to teach. The sword master has a larger stance of the feet, much more than the others, allowing his barycenter to lower and thus giving more stability. This, united with the movement of the sword that follows the angle of his body increases the power of the blow without actually using too much muscle strength. Pretty sure he’s also just tending (not contracting) the muscles under the armpits, near the rib cage, the serratus anterior. That makes a huge difference.
