Day 27 - Species/Race
The Yiga and Sheikah
the legend of zelda cartoon is better than totk and I will stand by this
god i miss how i used to feel about botw
thinking about dorian and cado (game capture is from google)
anyway do you ever think about what a freak dorian could potentially be to the other kakariko villagers depending on how different yiga culture is from the sheikah I mean they've been separated for millenia
i gotta say, as someone who has not been following kinnikuman for over two years now, checking out todays chapter and seeing half a dozen chloes was like a sucker punch to the gut
I love when trauma makes characters messy. I love when characters don't know how to show love. I love when they lash out. I love when they're vile and break down. I love characters who aren't perfect victims. I love when stories don't excuse behaviour but allow you to understand it
I know as a Yiga Clan fan I should be like "fuck Dorian all my homies hate Dorian" but I'm gonna say it: The dude is adorable. I love the way he talks to and about his daughters. I love that he stays awake until 1 AM watching them sleep and then passes out in a chair because he's so deeply paranoid and afraid for their lives after what the Yiga did to his wife. I love how he tries so so hard to protect them. I love how they mean the entire world to him, how devoted he is. I love how he retains the body language of a Blademaster. And I ESPECIALLY love how if you wait in his house in the Yiga gear until he comes home from his shift he'll think you're an assassin thats come to finish the job. Heehee funny banana assassins murdered my wife.
YUUJOU POWER, SUPER MUSCLE!

Okay, but I'm curious to know if you've ever designed Master Kohga? :0
Well if I had to put a face to Master Kohga it would be this!
In my way of seeing the character I think he would look like this, a bit of a braggart and not even a evil face (personally he doesn't look evil at all in the game, even if he tries)
I hope you like it!
Thanks for your ask! 💖
I refuse to reblog callout posts because I'm a prison abolitionist
In all my years in this website, and I've been here a long time, I can't recall a single instance of a callout post leading to actual restitution for the victims of the alleged harm the person was accused of. Even in cases where the accusations were true. Even in cases where there was legitimate harm done to another person.
Remember the sixpencee child slave thing? What happened there, exactly? Was the kid freed? No? They were just run off the website? OK so what good exactly did that do?
Remember the bone stealing witch? What exactly did that witchhunt accomplish? The person got arrested, oh that's great, the american justice system surely rectified the situation
And again, those are instances where the accusations were true and involved real substantive harm to another person. We used to joke on here how callout posts were shit like "receipts below: [several paragraphs of petty fandom drama] [three paragraphs of petty interpersonal drama involving cheating on partners or stealing food out of the fridge or something] [fabricated evidence that the person is responsible for the murder of JonBenét Ramsey]"
And that was back in the 2010s. The meta has changed. Callouts used to be a tool people used to point out actual harm a person had done, rarely, and more commonly were used as a means of bullying somebody over petty drama. Nowadays they're used to manufacture outrage and harassment against marginalized populations. They are a weapon bigots use to turn us against each other. A few manufactured accusations here, some out of context or clipped screenshots there, and people who should be standing in solidarity with each other against white supremacy, patriarchy, cisheteronormativity, are instead devouring each other.
It's sinister as shit, dude, and people will still share these accusations without a second thought. So, why? What is the point? What's the best case scenario here? Raising "awareness?" what the fuck is that supposed to accomplish? Will we get the oh-so-trustworthy authorities involved? Are we hoping for an arrest? A conviction? Throwing a queer or poc person in prison so they can be abused and assaulted and humiliated behind bars? Is that who we are?
Callouts and the like don't serve any real good in the world. At a macro scale they divide us when we should be standing together, and at a micro scale they result in deeply traumatic never-ending harassment and threats and doxxing and worse to a person who almost definitely does not deserve it. And again, for what? A sense of "justice?" this is not justice. This is retribution. It is punishment.
It's fucking cop behavior, and I'm not gonna participate in it.
LoZ: TotK - Rhoam Mischaracterization
I have trouble reading fics where Rhoam is basically just the secondary villain of the story.
Especially when he's turned into someone who physically abuses Zelda!
Like... it is, quite possibly, the most incorrect characterization for him. Because everything about him says, albeit quietly, that he loves his daughter & that he's only pushing her so much because he feels that he has to.
Do I think he did it absolutely wrong? Yes. Do I think that he should've made it absolutely clear to her that he loved her & that if they weren't in such a dire situation that he would never behave in such a way? Abso-freaking-lutely!
But do I think that he'd beat her??? Hell the fuck NO!!
I think he'd sooner kill himself! And if he ever heard that someone else was hurting his daughter, I think they'd either be executed on the spot, no trial. Possibly by Rhoam's own hands. Or they'd be tortured in the most gruesome ways imaginable for an indeterminate amount of time before then being executed. Once again, by Rhoam's own hands.
Because he loves his daughter & he detested how he treated her.
Heck, keep in mind that those memories are from Link's perspective. Who, logically speaking, wouldn't be privy to how the 2 interact behind closed doors. He is, in many ways, an unreliable narrator of the Naif type. So, for all we know, Rhoam did tell Zelda he loved her quite often. Perhaps he did make it clear that he was pushing her because of the Calamity's swift approach & that, if not for that, he'd let her enjoy her life & her passions & her hobbies.
Which makes reading otherwise well-written fics where he's portrayed as some hateful, rotten abuser very difficult.
Definitely not the best dad, nor even a good dad by a long shot, but he's also not just a dad. He's also a king who is responsible for the lives of everyone in his kingdom.
Including his beloved daughter.

YAHYA ABDUL-MATEEN II in AQUAMAN AND THE LOST KINGDOM (2023)
It’s weird to grow up in a family where you know you’re loved but you don’t feel loved. And then later in adulthood you understand how almost impossible it seems to cross that distance and let yourself experience closeness, how otherworldly love feels now and how love feels unbearable at times. You flinch when someone tries to wholeheartedly love you. And over and over you see so clearly how you cannot be loved unless it's from afar and love is mixed with that familiar sensation of distance and coldness.
