hear me out: a lotr game but you play as the ring, throwing yourself wantonly into the path of unsuspecting folk and slowly corrupting their minds as the game progresses

[sunflowersbymonet]

it’s a lovely morning in middle earth, and you are a horrible ring.

The inevitable result of playing the One Ring in a trolly and silly capacity is that you will humanize, empathize, and eventually sympathize the One Ring into a deeply complex and multi faceted character through growth both negative and positive and you WILL enjoy every minute of it

no offense but I heard the evil scientist say he likes studying me better than you

[boimgfrog]

Then why’s he up all night diluting my saliva? Check and mate.

[animalyears]

well IM getting moved to a separate chamber tonight so he can keep an eye on me. What about that?

[boimgfrog]

Please, he hasn’t even probed your mind yet. Besides, yesterday he told me that my blood diagnostics were, “abnormal” and “potentially hazardous”. How could you possibly compete with that?

[animalyears]

*telekinesis throws a soda can at your head* 

[boimgfrog]

How dare you!!! Evil Scientist!!! Evil Scientist they’re resorting to violence!!! I do not feel very enriched right now!!! I need a bandage and an IV of juice!!!

[animalyears]

this is exactly the behavior i’m talking about. You still need juice rewards and screens. I have evolved past these childish activities, I am a model experiment

[systlin]

plauntie, what do you think of Neil Gaiman's Norse Mythology? I really liked it but idk how accurate the portrayal of the myths are

It’s fairly accurate. Grimnir is fond of Mr. Gaiman, to be honest.

[ravenspeare]

It’s also quite bingeable for a work of words. I read it during my half hour lunch breaks and it goes by rather quickly!

[edderkopper]

For the most part, Gaiman adds detail and character motivations that Snorri doesn't spell out as opposed to actively changing anything. The two biggest differences from the source text is Gaiman does make Thor a much, much dumber jock than the Eddas portray him, and he glosses over the whole Skirnismal coercion deal.

[systlin]

^^^

That.

Thor’s not dumb. I don’t know how that got into pop culture so hard, tbh. Thor’s got common sense, rather than what I’d call Odin’s “Scholarly smarts”.

But “Haha big guy dumb” is funny I guess.

[coyotegestalt]

Also, I think this is a thing that’s easy to have happen in narrative: when you have someone who’s reasonably clever, but they’re always in the company of one or more RIDICULOUSLY smart people, they come off poorly in contrast. Especially when “I’m smart/I know things/I’m clever and sneaky” is the other character’s primary trait in the story, their counterpart gets thought of as “the foolish one” just because they’re nearby and get the blunt end of the exposition stick. Think Dr. Watson, or Benn Grimm - very competent people in intellectually demanding professions (a surgeon and an astronaut), but their best friend is an over-the-top supergenius, and their role in the story is to be the muscle rather than the thinker, so we remember them as not very smart by contrast. Hanging out with Odin and Loki is going to tend to have the same effect.

[systlin]

There’s probably quite a lot to that, actually. And modern writers have tended to lean into this, and so we have ‘dumb himbo’ Thor, when quite honestly if Odin had half his son’s common sense he may never have made some of the mistakes he has such as, oh, chaining Fenrir.

[cargopantsman]

Hypothesis: the himbofication of Thor is a classist smear to demean the working class...

Prompt: You see your younger sibling getting abducted at the park. Panicked, you rush to save them only for the abductor to reveal that they’re not abducting your sibling—your sibling is the world’s Chosen One and they’re here to train them.

[bostonbakeddeans]

“You have been Chosen for a Special Quest, young one.”

You hear the words to begin the Rite of Training and you move on instinct. This is everything your parents warned you about – you can feel the magic rising in the air, listening for the Words that will bind your sibling to this - this kidnapper.

“Get away from my brother!” you screech. You launch yourself forward and your body moves on instinct. You tackle the Knight to the ground and begin scratching at every inch of exposed flesh you can reach, still screeching like a banshee.

The magic settles back down, but doesn’t recede entirely. It seems a little sulky, but you couldn’t care less – Edmond is too young for this, far too young, and you won’t let it happen. You catch the Knight across the face with your nails, leaving bloody trails. The pain of it shocks him into action: he throws you off with a snarl. You tumble across the grass, skidding to a stop some six feet away. He turns to Eddie – so young, too young – and opens his mouth.

You do the same, and let out an unholy wail. The Knight collapses to his knees, clapping his hands over his ears. Eddie giggles and lets out a little screech of his own. You gulp down a deep breath and continue wailing, praying that your mother will hear you.

Sometimes it’s good to have Siren blood, after all. Communicating over long distances comes in handy.

Those loony Christian signs listing all the types of sinners who will go to Hell (ABORTIONISTS SATANISTS GAMBLERS FORNICATORS) always make me feel bad because I know I’d fall under a lot more categories if I just got out more. It’s introvert shaming, that’s what it is.
