a 500 word short story with the same plot as your novel that explores how quickly the problem could be solved by sonic the hedgehog

Iâve never seen this one before and it just punched me in the fucking face.
Just like Knuckles did to Sonic
the fact that we only have âherculean taskâ and âsisyphean taskâ feels so limiting. so hereâs a few more tasks for your repertoire
icarian task: when you have a task you know youâre going to fail at anyways, so why not have some fun with it before it all comes crashing down
cassandrean task: when you have to deal with people you KNOW wonât listen to you, despite having accurate information, and having to watch them fumble about when you told them the solution from the start (most often witnessed in customer service)
feel free to chime in i ran out of ideas much faster than i anticipated
Promethean task: opposite of a Cassandraean task. You have the right information, and SOMEONE has to share it. But it's all in the delivery and if you're the person to identify the problem you WILL be hated forever.
Oedipal Task: (1) Attempting to avoid an unspeakably awful outcome and in doing so creating the circumstances that will bring it about. (2) Trying to solve an problem and discovering that you are in fact the problem you are trying to solve.
Odyssean task: youâll complete it but itâll take 20 times longer than it should and involve multiple side quests and mini-adventures
Pandorean task: some people fucked around and now it's your job to make sure they find out
Tolkien writing kingdoms' moral decay and eventual decline: they exploited nature, destroyed forests and cut down trees
Tolkien writing male characters' moral decay and eventual decline: he stopped listening to his wife

Seven more đ⨠That's a Witch-king of Angmar as seen by Frodo on the Weathertop!
Also, Iâve decided I'll be selling the originals after I finish all the drawings (that means after Easter). But if there is any character you'd like to have in particular you can start reserving them now. By messaging me here or on [email protected] :^)
Warg is still available!
The prices are from 50 to 80USD (shipping included). And same as last year with the dog drawings this year also all the earnings will be sent to charities. Thank you! đż
Rest of the characters are here and here and here!

Sibling asked how ppl in star wars dance to jizz music and I had to give her an example
its literally not a typo,,,, thats what the genre of the music in the video is called in star wars canon
I donât think any movie will make me feel the same ethereal sense of otherworldly sorrow and disembodied awe as that scene in Lord of the Rings where the loyal son is sent off into a doomed battle to please his vindictive father while Pippin sings a mourning song of his people
I was like 12 and high off this shit
These movies CHANGED ME
This is one of my favourite parts of the whole trilogy. Itâs haunting.
And that Pippin takes actually a happy walking song of his people, because Hobbit songs are generally happy and about food and drink and gifts and things, and *transforms* it into a mourning song.
The song is from Fellowship, before all the heavy plot hits and theyâre still in the Shire. Itâs about walking, and how eventually all the bad things that scare or sadden you will fade away and youâll be home warm by the fire.
And Pippin takes it, changes the lines, the key, and sings a song that is truly fit for Denethorâs great hall.
Knowing Billy Boyd gave his own melody to it and everyone had chills after hearing him sing it. This is how you get actors involved with the story and character, this is how amazingly well these films were cast. Fans have been singing that haunting tune in echoing halls and caves and towers for 20 years now and it never loses its beauty.
Home is behind
The world ahead
And there are many paths to tread
Through shadow
To the edge of night
Until the stars are all alight
Mist and shadow
Cloud and shade
All shall fade
All shall
Fade
And even better: Billy Boyd composed the tune to the song and then performed it for Peter Jackson and everyone else while filming. They only did one take! That very first take is the one thatâs used in the film! Heâs just that good!!
Every now and then I like to pull up this video of Billy Boyd being endearing and silly and choked up about Boromirâs death scene, and then performing this song upon request:
I sing it as a lullaby to my children but I use the original âaway shall fadeâ to make it less sad because theyâre just babies. uwu
Not even my fandom and I have chills.
You know what, Iâm not done. Every aspiring writer should watch that scene and keep in mind the axiom âevery person is the protagonist in their own mind,â because Denethor and Pippin are having TWO ENTIRELY DIFFERENT CONVERSATIONS.
Hereâs the translation of how it goes.
WHAT DENETHOR SAYS: can you sing, Master Hobbit?
WHAT DENETHOR MEANS: I want entertainment and youâre from far lands. Thatâs a novelty here.
WHAT PIPPIN HEARS: I donât care that I just sent my son to his death. Entertain me.
WHAT PIPPIN SAYS: yes. Well, well enough for my own people. But we have no songs fit for great halls.
WHAT PIPPIN MEANS: yes. But not for you. And our songs arenât for people who engage in such cruelty.
WHAT DENETHOR HEARS: yes, but Iâm embarrassed because mine are simple folk, and youâre very grand and regal. Thereâs no way I could be of any use to you.
WHAT DENETHOR SAYS: and why should your songs be unfit for my halls? Sing me a song.
WHAT DENETHOR MEANS: weâre all equals culturally. Iâm a benevolent ruler, I donât think your songs are inferior to those produced by my skilled musicians. Let me engage with your culture.
WHAT PIPPIN HEARS: I have literally already forgotten about my son. Iâm more interested in entertainment and food, things you normally adore and which Iâm making a mockery of by my actions. So sing to me songs of those things you love, entertainment and food. My son doesnât matter to me and shouldnât matter to you.
And then Pippin sings.
WHAT DENETHOR HEARS: what a pretty little song.
WHAT PIPPIN IS SAYING WITH THE SONG: fuck you for doing this to your son, who I love. Fuck you for doing this to me, as I mourn. Fuck you for making a mockery of the things I love, when itâs clear you donât care for them any more than you do for YOUR SON. Your child, who you should want to protect. If you wonât mourn in these halls, by everything I hold dear I swear SOMEONE will.
Pippin canât say any of this out loud. But his word choices are extremely deliberate. And so are Denethorâs! He does not see himself as a bad person! I donât know enough LOTR to know if heâs a villain or just an asshole, but the important thing here is HE THINKS OF HIMSELF AS NEITHER. Heâs a good guy whoâs had to make some hard choices, thatâs all. Itâs the editing that tells you heâs not actually that at all.
This is a MASTERCLASS in âeveryone is their own protagonistâ and if this is the standard the movies rise to all the time I understand why yâall love them so much, because holy shit. Thatâs incredible.

the problem with taz balance is you first listen to it as a naive high schooler like "oh, funny dnd podcast made by those mcelroy guys i see in tumblr memes all the time! and they apparently have gay characters too! let me check this out! haha his name is taco that's so random XD" and nobody could have warned you that a decade later you'll still periodically think about lucretia and her martyr complex and be stricken with the urge to start gnawing your own limbs off
