uauauau mapicc trying so hard to get ro to come back to ls the past few seasons and Actually successfully getting her back for s8 makes me so happy idk :')))

i know shes been like busy af irl which has obviously impacted her ability to play the server, but i feel like the One thing that we learned from her s5 that no one but mapicc actually understood is that it is painfully easy to make roshambogames care bc she will care as long as you make HER feel cared for & wanted. all u have to do is want her, and make sure she knows u want her & she'll stay by ur side loyally. it isnt as simple as Being a roshambogames teammate or even being a good teammate, or even as simple as having a project to work on bc those can be things u do without needing her specifically

a very important thing that needs to be known abt ro is that genuinely all she wants in the world is to be wanted. like thats Why she works so well w mapicc. he is nothing if not persistent and he makes absolutely no effort to hide that he wants her, by his side, more than anyone else in the server. hes deadass been the only person since arguably s5 to consistently reach out to ro in specific to try involving her in things bc he wanted Her Specifically to be involved. thats not to say there werent other teams of ro's who didnt want her or even that her teams have been bad teammates to her in any way; they just cant meet her needs in the very specific way that mapicc is able to

like ignoring the messes that were lala legion & the foundation— the sticklers and celestia were both objectively amazing teams and i know for certain they valued & cared for ro deeply, but to my understanding there was little effort made towards seeking out ro specifically and requesting her presence for the simple sake of having her as roshambogames be there.

that alone doesnt seem like that big of a deal bc the open invitation was always there, but after the train wreck that was the Roshambogames lss5 Experience it makes complete sense. she spent genuinely all of s5 feeling unwanted by every team she was on bc not only was she treated with hostility and made to feel unwanted on both teams she was part of, she was also like heavily excluded to the point that she was completely ia by the time the players got around to inviting her to the team. it was only AFTER being brought online and invited to join the players bc they specifically wanted her that ro began to actually login & do things for the finale. and even crazier, she STILL felt more wanted and valued by a team she was on for the last month of s5 then she ever did w lala legion or the foundation even AFTER killing one of the original members of the players in the dumbest way possible 💀💀

though literally everyone, fans & ccs alike, saw ro betraying her teams during s5 as an inevitability bc Obviously she would betray anyone for mapicc which means only mapicc seemed to understand there was very much an underlying reason for ro's betrayal even past her just loving mapicc more than like anyone else in the server. which is why mapicc has continued to be the only one who can successfully get ro to login & why they make me so joyous, i love how much mapicc loves that girl like for as much as people love insisting that ro is the one stuck on the relationship they had in s4 (she isnt btw and she never was— even during s5 but ill save that for another post), mapicc sure does love rerunning s4 plotlines and using his ideas to bait ro into teaming w him again LMFAO

ANYWAYS all that to say i love duality duo and i love roshambogames but ill never love her as much as mapicc does apparently ^-^

atla just so happened to write one of the most insane and complex brother sister relationships in all of television, and yet for some reason everyone focused on zuko and azula instead, even though they are basically just normal siblings, and as such not even that interesting ..

[comradekatara]

their dynamic is more fraught and tragic than you could ever comprehend……

this☝️ is just a typical sibling interaction

[adrenaline-revolver]

katara and sokka are what happens when you are your brother’s mother and your brother also tries to be your father. you love them, you hate them, you’re half of them, you can’t stand them, you look after them, they keep you safe.

azula and zuko are both just gifted kid burnouts with a dad that only loves the winner.

[tanoraqui]

#yeah when they're not trying to kill each other azula and Zuko are p normal. #katara and sokka on the other hand spent the majority of their childhood trying to raise each other #and were also the ONLY kids in their age group that they ever interacted with. #they are so. they're so. #''i don't remember what my mom looks like I just picture katara'' WHEN HE HAS HIS MOTHER'S FACE. kills me.

Thinking about the Hadestown proshot and Orpheus being introduced wiping down a table with his back to the audience. Hermes has to call out to him again to get him to take his opening bow, and for the show to start, Orpheus has to turn around.

AO3 Writer Affirmations:

I do not have to reinvent the wheel every time I write fanfiction

I do not have to make every chapter's word count above 1,000 in order for it to be good

It is okay if some things don't make sense

I can write whatever I want

I am writing this shit for free

If people don't like my stuff, they can block me. If they're being mean about it, I can block them.

The most important part of writing fanfiction is having fun

Writing fanfiction is supposed to be fun

I do not have to appeal to people

This shit is fun

I am doing this all for free, and anyone who objects can go eat wet sand and worms from the sidewalk

fuck everything. whats the media people ASSUME youre into. what are people surprised that you havent watched/played/whatever

Imagine being Anais Mitchell and writing a song about the rhetoric of fascism so incisive and prescient that 10 years later an actual fascist would use that exact rhetoric down to the highly-specific phrasing in his presidential campaign. But also it took 10 years for the project you wrote that song for to move from living room shows to concept album to theater workshop to off-Broadway to Broadway, and its Broadway debut ended up coinciding with said fascist's successful bid for the presidency, and now it looks like your song that you wrote in 2005 is a super unsubtle reference to that one particular and highly-topical politician.

Frankly if I were her I would have started killing.

My scorching hot take on Christopher Nolan Presents Homer's The Odyssey is Tom Holland having his mind blown while filming this, then going back to Marvel to and being all "Why did no one tell me that you can, like, have a finished script before you start filming and a cinematographer who has all the shots planned before filming instead of figuring it out in post, has anyone else heard about this?" is pretty funny

[turnipfritters]

Visionary Director Christopher Nolan's controversial directing style of "telling actors what's happening in a scene when they're filming"

Reposting this coz i saw it in my camera roll again this is by far one of the funniest interactions ive come across on ao3

[ziptiesnfries]

i feel like an often overlooked downside to 10-episode seasons and the death of the "monster of the week" format is that we get way less whump variety nowadays. used to be that there'd be dozens of opportunities for your fave to get punched or kidnapped or hypnotized or what have you. these days if it doesn't fit into the main plot, it just doesn't happen. this is a tragedy. we should be protesting.

The Catalogue of Ships in the Iliad is, to a modern audiences, what classicists have called “boring as hell,” but I can’t help but think that if you were watching Homer recite it it would have been more like when comedians go, “anybody here tonight from Chicago?” and the Chicagoans in the back start cheering

Homer’s like, “and there were forty black ships from… LOCRIS” and the Locrians in the crowd start going absolutely nuts
