HIGH SCHOOL MUSICAL (2006), dir. by Kenny Ortega

[homunculus-argument]

"Problematic height gap" was a concept made up by people who have never seen the kind of short people who go out to interact with the public. Those fucking gnomes fear nothing. If they're at the exact right height to bite you in the nuts, they will.

And insanely tall people come in two categories: If they're merely tall, and not large, they're just skittish fragile giraffes. The most dangerous thing they can do to you is stand up too fast, faint because their blood pressure dropped, and hit you on the way down like a felled tree.

The tall people who are also large are mostly chill in my experience. Sure some of them must be assholes just out of statistical inevitability, but it takes some edge out of life knowing that someone could try to hit you with a tank and all they're going to find out is whether or not a Leopard 2A7 has a crumple zone. And most importantly they are never tactically prepared for getting bit in the nuts.

Like to charge, reblog to cast.

This spell has a very low hit ratio, so we need a lot of us to do it.

They could never make me hate you, complex female character whose reaction to trauma was not pretty and digestible like how people think it should be.

shoutout to this anime-only extended scene. the animators really be finding any possible space where they could add more brushbuddy shenanigans and they are so correct for it

I understand why they prioritized keeping up the tension in the scene instead for a more cinematic experience, but I also really wish the anime had preserved this particular pose from the manga

to show us just how deeply unserious qifrey is about this whole thing hfsjkdhfa. the 'mm-hmm honey' of it all. his utter lack of worry that olruggio is going to actually put his foot down is so fucking funny the more you understand about their relationship

[timelockedwitchgoblin]

Just reread this entire interaction, it's fascinating.

First question. Is he wet on purpose? Qifrey is wearing his cloak. The cloak we EARLIER THIS DAY saw repel water when it rained. The chapter bonus about clothes specifies that he has seals on it to keep him dry. We've seen him fall in the goddamn ocean and this cloak gives him a bubble. Did this man think getting wet in the rain when Olly tried to take Coco would garner him pity points?

Second question. Why doesn't Olly dry them off? We see Tetia and Riche fiddling with a towel. We get a bigger payoff narratively when Coco learns about the drying magic after barging into his room. But why doesn't he dry them here? Is he being petty and refusing to because he knows Qifrey didn't even need to get wet?

Idk what they are consuming (soup? Probably?) but Qifrey busies himself handing it out while Olly tries to ask him wtf he was thinking. Qifrey doesn't answer that, he just says she has a name, and while we're doing intros, Coco, this is Olruggio; he lives here and keeps us safe and we love him ✨

Qifrey hands out the soup in this order: Olruggio, then Coco, then himself.

Olruggio starts to muse on his duty as the watchful eye to report all this to the knights (panel above) and Qifrey says yes the knights! Coco, would you like me to teach you about them? (Olly see what a good teacher I am?) Anyway, the knights are the super inflexible cops of our world who erase people's minds no nuance, no questions asked. (He pauses for dramatic effect and looks pointedly at Olruggio) But Coco you are a good, dutiful child. I'm sorry I got you into this mess. If anyone is getting their memory wiped, it should be me *stares at Olruggio until he gets flustered and leaves*

The most beautiful spell ✨ My Witch Hat Atelier illustration for Crunchyroll! I've always been in love with the beautiful artwork of WHA, and Kamome Shirahama's masterful line work has been a huge inspiration for me! I did my best to recapture the grandeur and magic in this piece. Super excited for the finale next week!!
