Thoughts Race, Sprite-Like, Through My Mind

I blog about a lot of random stuff, including, but not limited to, lit puns, cats, dark humor, and positive mental health. English teacher, proud mom, neutral good gamer.

One of the things that impressed me the most about Dungeon Crawler Carl (mind you, I went in with zero expectations) is that not only it manages to turn a talking cat into fully realized, complex character who is still unmistakably *a cat*, but also that the cental relationship of the series - this kind of strong, unshakable bond between the main characters that never fails to make you emotional over how much they mean for each other - is unmistakably a relationship between a man and a cat. Not just nominally, but in a way that is instantly recognizable for anyone who ever owned and loved a cat. And mind you, it's not for the lack of other relationships - Carl finds new friends and comrades, and each of them is important for him in their own right, but still THE most important person in his life is a cat and as a cat person I think that's beautiful

Its actually so important to me that Ryland Grace is a teacher. Not a professor, not someone at the top of their field teaching the smartest people, but a middle school science teacher. Of course he figured out how to communicate with an alien in under a day. His main expertise is explaining complex subjects to a group that doesnt have the vocabulary or context to fully understand them. He knows exactly how to simplify things down to its core principles without sacrificing any of the scientific logic. And he knows how to do it without having to throw around hyperspecific terminology.

I mean this was obvious since season one, but I do love when they edited Coop and the Ghoul together and it's not "oh shit the Ghoul was inside him waiting to come out" but au contraire the Ghoul doesn't fucking exist actually, there is only Cooper Howard, he's not a cowboy, he's not a killer, he's Cooper Howard and he's lost as fuck

How it's truly an evolution. The ghoul is who Cooper thinks he needs to be to survive, how he sees himself in the wasteland without his wife and daughter. And maybe, if he gets them back, he can figure out how to be Cooper again.

if demigods were allowed smart phones the very first contact percy would make with any of the greeks in SoN would be sending thalia a video of him using the 12th legions eagle to shoot lightning and smirking into the camera. no words spoken. no context given. she's crushing her phone in her hand as she watches it.

I love how the Disney adaptation of Percy Jackson and the Olympians does such a good job from the outset of emphasizing that Percy might be half god on Poseidon’s side, but every instinct in him that makes him a hero is because he is Sally Jackson’s son.
