“polyamory isn’t the solution to a love triangle when two of the people hate each other”

I mean yeah not if you don’t understand QUADRANT VACILLATION

tbh quadrant vacillation doesnt really help this situation at all. i made a diagram

[kaiasky-deactivated20220706]

I think if you imagine it as a system that’s not entirely stable it works–quadrant vacillation shouldn’t be stable, because there needs to be somebody unsatisfied in the relationship to propel it to vacillate! See, here’s a graph:

here look i made an animation forgive the quality i dont know how to export gifs

INTRIGUING! if you were to narrativize it, when A&B are totally flushed, B&C are waxing flushed while A&C are waxing pitch. the narrative here i guess is that A is happy with maximum-flush, but C want to be more flushed with B, which causes animosity between A&C. then, the growth of B’s affection towards C induce a little resentment in A, which causes the turnover where A starts to wax pitch towards B.

when A&B are at about the midpoint waxing pitch, A starts to no longer see C as their competitor for B, so A’s pitch feelings start to fade, while the swing of B&C’s flush together has grown to its peak

then, when A&B are totally pitch, B&C are waxing pitch while A&C are waxing flushed. theres a symmetry here, you can basically just do the resentment of jealously again, B gets frustrated that C’s affections are shifting towards A which stokes the underlying pitched feelings, especially because theyre currently max-pitch towards A.

its all very complicated!

anyway im not sure how kosher this is in troll society, our vision is mostly through karkat, and we know hes weird and often wrong abt this stuff

[triviallytrue]

not to be rude but i think reading homestuck does Something to your brain

[transgenderer]

was going to claim i was like this before homestuck but my pre-homestuck memories are pretty sparse actually cuz i read homestuck when i was like…13 i think. so maybe youre onto something

OKEY DOKEY proxy meta time. xerneas/yveltal = calem/serena = dexio/sina = sycamore/lysandre = life/death. sycamore is life in the same way too much love can end up suffocating something & serena is death in the same way that death is just a natural and necessary part of existence. life as a destructive force death as a creative force. eternity. birth metaphors. parenthood motifs. preservation vs letting the rot take place. holding on to the past vs looking to the future without fear. royalty. nepotism. stop trying to bring the old kings back we’re standing on their bones as you speak. lysandre is like if xerneas was yveltal. zygarde = diantha but zygarde also = trevor so by way of transitive property diantha = trevor? acting. playing the role. staying the same forever, changing every day. the eternal flower is red (death) and blue (life). life and death are the same. life and death as beginning and end = az = alpha and omega = ties to hoenn = shares its themes of birth death and rebirth = perfectworldshipping is hardenshipping but also originshipping. i rest my case

Exactly 20 years ago (give or take a few days) like most French schoolchildren I was given a piggy bank to collect yellow coins (small change). It was a charity campaign called Opération Pièces Jaunes, to help hospitalised children, but my classmates & I were quite indifferent to the charity aspect because all we cared about was the fact that our teacher started giving us a candle in the shape of President Jacques Chirac every time we returned our little box filled with coins. 

We were completely enraptured by those candles and the way the president’s face would start melting hideously if we let them burn long enough. Without any kind of deliberation among ourselves we turned it into a class-wide contest—it was obvious to everyone that the point of the Yellow Coins charity campaign was to win many little Chiracs and melt them to make the face of our president as freakishly deformed as possible. We exchanged them for pogs and marbles. We had recently learnt about the Plague in history class, with great relish, hence one lucky girl who managed to obtain a particularly monstrous half-melted face with a big wax bubble reminiscent of a bubo sold it way above the going rate, for 12 galaxy marbles—a fortune. (I was among the losers of this auction, and commented in my diary, with deep regret, “It’s just what it would look like if the President had the bubonic plague!”) Every day after school we went round town begging passersby for coins with something akin to mania in order to get more Chiracs to burn into ever ghastlier shapes. An old lady we ambushed in front of the church praised us warmly for our charitable spirit.

Eventually our teacher ran out of candles and this odd chapter of my childhood ended as abruptly as it had started. Our class was congratulated in front of the whole school for being by far the most ardently devoted to the cause (we got ~15kg of coins.) I wonder if the principal asked our teacher what her secret was to make us collect a truly astonishing amount of coins compared to the other classes, and how he reacted when she replied that she motivated us with busts of the President. One teacher gave a Carambar for a full box of coins, another believed that helping sick children should be incentive enough, but our teacher, an expert in child psychology, was alone in her conviction that the best way to go about this was to hand out human wax effigies for her students to burn.

[hedgehog-moss]

This post is now one year old and my favourite thing about it is that no French person in the notes has ever seen a Chirac candle before, which strengthens my theory that my primary school teacher was making them herself, at home, as a hobby, and with this exact purpose in mind.

HALLEGORY OF THE CAVE STRIDER

[davestriderpostscratch]

you guys still think dave doesn’t do quadrants?

[davestriderpostscratch]

if you guys don’t get that the penis ouija shit was karkat correctly interpreting that dave was pitch flirting and enjoying it followed by dave trying to no-homo his way out of it by saying quadrants are stupid i’m laughing at you

[davestriderpostscratch]

dave says he’s uncomfortable with black romance but since his only reference is terezi and gamzee he has no idea what a black romance actually is supposed to be or that he and karkat are vaguely in one AND he’s also still in no-homo mode so when karkat tries to broach the subject he flips out and gets defensive and won’t entertain the convo which paradoxically guarantees that he never WILL understand black romance because he won’t let karkat explain it to him. if i were karkat i’d throw myself off the meteor

i love that ingo is like :( and he is loud and he is nice. and emmet is like :) and he is calm and he is rude

[calebwittebane]

they dont even know that they perfectly embody the duality of zekrom and reshiram

[calebwittebane]

N choosing one of the twins as the other hero and the twin is like N i dont know. i have a job. i literally go to work every day. i like my job very much and it is pretty important. maybe you should get a job too. im not going anywhere without my brother btw. my brother and i go everywhere together including to work, because we work at the same place, because we both have a job.

[calebwittebane]

like N just hangs out at the gear station for a bit too long cause he likes looking at the trains and he ends up meeting ingo and emmet and they hit it off because they are all mesmerized by the beauty of the trains. and ingo and emmet are like wow what a nice cool sociable guy, just like us. and he hits them with that destiny prophecy Im In A Cult the vision i saw the world i desire one of you has to summon an ancient deity and fight me

Preparing for trouble ✨

[modmad]

so anyway

can’t wait for the next game where you play alternately as Emmet and Ingo

[vwoop-prince]

okay but i cant stop thinking about this because its so true

truth and ideal would fit the boys so well

as you said Emmet would retain his memories and make him Truth, which would leave him with no willpower and leave him imperfect without his other half, or not ideal

Ingo would lose his memories yet have the strength and willpower to continue fighting and be considered more perfect or Ideal, while losing the truth

Together, along with the dragon, they would regain their Ideal and True selves and become more whole but along with that

media and fans like to push their main pokemon being Eelektross and Chandelure,,,, or an electric and a fire type

or Zekrom and Reshiram–

Emmet holding Zekrom, the pokemon of perfection/Ideals, would make the most sense as Emmet lost his perfect half and would need to regain it to become whole again, like the dragon. Plus Eelektross being electric means he gets the electric dragon. plus white boi having black dragon symbolism go brrr

Ingo holding Reshiram, the pokemon of Truth, would also make sense as Ingo lost his true self and would need to regain it to become whole again. Plus Chandelure being fire means he gets the fire dragon. plus black boi having white dragon symbolism–you get the point

Another thing: Neither twin has an ice type. Ever. Not even in Legends. And if you want to dip into their characters, then I mean–losing your twin, your true self or your perfect half, is bound to make someone cold to others. And Kyurem is the shell of what once was. And Kyurem is a grey pokemon which is a mixture of black and white and yada yada colors and symbolism.

plus the whole. trains. america was big into the train thing. still kind of is. let the autistic train boss twins be the inventors of trains. it’d be so cool.

[modmad]

you.

you get it
