saying roman is already a face when he just came back and even cody was hesitant to accept romans help is an interesting choice. it's almost like if they actually cared abt story consitancy no one is gonna forgive him that easily and he's not gonna be a face for a WHILE. shocker! it also wouldn't make any sense for either of the usos or sami to just... go back with him bc he's "a good guy now" NO HE'S NOT, FOR ONE, and for two, literally just a week or two ago sami mentioned what roman did to him and how he never wants anyone else to have to deal with that again, implying it still bothers him. and when gable and jey had thier little mini feud, jey mentioned how gable was just like roman was to him and his brothers to otis and alpha academy, and how he hated that and then proceeded to kick his ass. if they care about story consitancy, if they care about MAKING SENSE, there's no way anyone is forgiving roman for a WHILE. and everyone should be okay with that.

I kinda had this thought for a while what if the uchiha massacre never happened and minato and kushina are alive as well . Wouldnt sakura's live be harder cause you know her background is civilian and all. If she ever graduate from the academy would fugaku even want her in the same team as his son and yondaime son. Her heritage is merchants and she is just booksmart. Her chakra control is amazing and all but i think if she were to graduate she would be in another team just for canon fodder and paper ninja. Thats even if they pass the real genin exam. Let say this is real. I think she would still change for the better but more earlier probably due to her being a civilian nin and smart. And if the naruto verse is pro to clan kids only and civilian nin are just trash. What would happen really. Lets disscussssss. No bashing please or haters. I love sakura and i love the canon naruto from the manga to the novels.

So the new trailer for the Sonic movie came out...

NOTE: this is me being positives and negatives in a ramble at 2 am. Don't like ramble? then this text may not be for you ;)                                                                                Still here? Cool!

Now i know you have probably read/heard A LOT of criticism to this movie, and, side note, if you’re a hardcore Sonic fan, or even a regular one, you will be worried about SEGA’s future producing the Sonic games. If this movie is garbage (as some ones point out) then this franchises future will most probably decay.

Getting back on topic, the Sonic movie, well, the trailer. As we all probably guessed by the leaked design, it isn’t our adorable blue hedgehog usual appearance, some actually find it a little cute, others find it really hideous, regardless of what side you're in its obvious this isn't our normal Sonic.

The animation is actually cool, it was better than what i expected, but its expected by producers of paramount.                                                                               Jim Carrey’s apparition as Robotnik isn't actually far off from sonic’s design, is the same character concept, just portrayed differently, because when I tell you Eggman, you will immediately think of a round character with a big fabulous moustache, yes? (Its just the fact that Jim here isn't an antrophomorphic hedgehog/animal)

I think (your free to disagree) that this design isn't the best some “experienced” producers and designers could come up with, BUT! its actually not as bad as people see it, cuz, when you think about it, a BLUE hedgehog humanified, isn't your best example at a “simple design” nor a “easy to come up with design”

THE THINGS THAT MUST BE IMPROVED THO... that scene at the “uhh meow”... Sonic’s teeth may give nightmares to some...                                         Now, I'm not here to flame I'm here to give some tips for SEGA (pshht as if they are going to see this :,0) for future or movie designs.

1. Make your stylistic choices easy-er for your designers. This design was crazy hard, and you’re criticized by this type of choices mostly, so, why not play it easy an do a Roger Rabbit like movie (heck you did it with the Sonic Boom tailer!!)

2. CHARACTER CONTINUITY IS REALLY IMPORTANT!! if you keep redesigning over and over your characters then there’s no continuity! unless you say is a spin off or not cannon.

3. This is most of an note for Forces, but i don't want you to make the same mistake, make your characters feel real. The cutscenes at forces say that Sonic was tortured for months/ having a bad time, AND HE IS UP AND HAPPY!? that doesn't feel real y’know? just a little note, every character should have a little of negative feelings.

Anyways that wraps it up for my notes... if you read all of my ramble discussion then i thank you very much!!                   Stay safe <3

About the new episode

Here's a thing that has been bothering me about the new episode : a single pale rose

Pink diamond shapeshifted into rose quarts.. okay. But why don't they have the same eye color???? Its bothering me so much. We always see that shapeshifting does not change eye color

[kiridork]

Yeah don't worry I see what you're saying, I guess for me the reason why Shigure not changing doesn't sit right with me is cause I just don't care for the Akigure ship. It doesn't feel genuine like most of the others and to this day I STILL don't understand how or why Shigure fell for her the way he did. I don't think its just cause he's the dog either cause thinking back to that chapter you mentioned it seems more to do with Shigure's own issues as a person rather than genuinely loving Akito.

Yeah…. I don’t care for the ship either. It was abusive and never sat right with me at all. I think that it really started with that dream that all the zodiac characters had before they were born. At least that’s how I saw it from the way Shigure had explained it. It just turned into a huge obsession after that or at least that’s what I figure. The readers don’t really know Shigure and Akito’s relationship while growing up or even before Akito went off the deep end. Maybe if that’s when Shigure started loving her and then Akito started to change negatively, then there would be more of an impact as to why Shigure was so in love her and was doing whatever it took to break the curse and to help Akito in the long run. It’s not really cause he’s the dog but his character does resemble characteristics of a dog which is fitting for his zodiac animal and the way his character is portrayed.

Let’s all agree that Akigure is a fucked ship (figuratively and literally) and shouldn’t have happened (or at least waited until Akito was able to get better and become independent before getting into any kind of romantic relationship)

Sleeping Beauty:Prince and Princess, appearance, fairy gifts and ogre blood

So in Perrault’s version (which I love for reasons stated here in my previous post:https://grimoireoffolkloreandfairytales.tumblr.com/post/163498370945/perraults-sleeping-beauty-is-so-good) the princess has been blessed with beauty by fairies, so magnificent to extent that prince trembles and kneels before her, while prince is half ogre on his mother’s side. And I’ve been thinking about how he must look compared to his wife. He obviously doesn’t look like true ogre, and didn’t get much from mom’s side apparently, but still something must indicate it.

First option is that princess looks like supermodel while he is average at best and ugly at worst. And some are surprised how he scored her, but she loves him regardless and anyway everybody looks bad next to her. And that would have been fun, but what if we make it more and invert traits of their appearance?

Imagine princess, blessed by fairies, so radiantly beautiful and bright that none may help but love her. Beauty that is so transcendent and amazing that it is obviously not human, beauty that becomes it’s own monstrosity. People kneel before her and fall in love at sight, willing to rip out their hearts for her. Artists weep because they cannot do her justice, and with glance she can bind will of hundreds. Like Helen of Troy, wars would be waged for her, and wisest elders would look at her and say she is worth it.

And prince who is obviously got some monster blood-green skin, yellow eyes, fangs, claws...but he is cute monster guy, the pretty boy. He’s got some strange traits, but they are minor, and enhance his looks, and compared to his wife he looks plain but obviously human.

Her castle doesn’t mind much because when you’ve got princess who is most beautiful girl in world, fairies running around cursing/saving their goddaughters and sleep without aging for century you quickly become open-minded.

My Prompto the Traitor Theory

Spoilers for the game - written before Episode Prompto is out This is something I can’t help but think about after finishing the game, and granted does take into account what I believe might have been cut content rather than something currently ‘canon’ in the game itself Now the main thing that brought this is on is just how much more attention Prompto gets concerning character development-wise when compared to pretty much any other character in the game except maybe Noctis.

I was so confused when after I triggered the Prompto motel conversation I went online and tried to find where I could experience similar conversations with Gladio and Ignis only to come up with nothing. On top of that Prompto’s kidnaping and subsequent MT reveal clearly have an impact on the plot....and I'm fairly sure was meant to have more to it than being essentially “Turns out I'm a MT” “Cool” “Ok” I mean wtf? I cannot be the only person confused and a little annoyed with how that ended. Prompto’s entire ‘reveal’ being there just so he can open a bloody door. Don’t get me wrong I love the entire concept its just so poorly executed I’ve been spending weeks reading the FFXV wiki for explanations that the games leave out. Such as more thorough explanations for the Mt’s and Project Deathless. (see @domesticfluffsimulator ‘s posts and my replies on MT’s Are Disgusting Part 1 and Part 2) Now onto my actual theory I am about 70% sure that in a previous version of the game (and boy do we know there were a lot of those) Prompto was going to betray the bros and had been meant to from the beginning. Why? Because he has the entire set up to have turned out like Sephiroth. He is not only meant to be an MT but is the son of the man in charge of the project Verstael Besithia. Now people seem to think that Prompto was merely one amongst many clones and that Verstael just used his own DNA because it was readily available.

I disagree

For one, Prompto’s tattoo gave him access to the Throne Room. In what universe would it make sense to give access to such an area to your standard All-purpose Magitek Infantry Model? Keep in mind these things are essentially brainwashed beings with very little agency. As I mentioned in the MT posts it would make sense that they have human’s acting as commanding officers to each unit (Aranea, Loqi, Calligo, Biggs and Wedge)Those people I can see having access to the Throne Room. Its simply not logical any sort of intruder or assassin would just need to take out one unit and shove its arm under the scanner to get at the Emperor. So it would make sense if Prompto’s access to that area came because he was Verstaels son as apposed to because he was a clone designed to become an MT. Point 2 The Adoption We know from the ultimania that Prompto was adopted by the Argentum family when he was one. Now I don’t know about you but legal adoptions between warring countries just don’t happen. Not to mention he was only a year old so he didn’t escape on his own, I know a lot of people who believe that Prompto was born from a woman and not a clone believe it was his mother who saved him but what about this... Ardyn purposely placed him there. Have Prompto grow up and just happen to go to the same school as the Prince? He’d be the perfect sleeper agent. The betrayal would be entirely unexpected as anyone who looked at him would see a kid who grew up in Insomnia with no possible influence from a foreign power he’s pretty much the safest option for a friend.

Not to mention the event that set Prompto on the path to becoming Noctis’ friend in the first place was finding an injured Pryna outside his house. How did she get hurt in the first place? Why would she even be there? (I will concede that it seems a bit convoluted to think Ardyn would go so far as to injure a dog on the hopes that Luna would tell its saviour to befriend Noctis but then again its final fantasy nothing is too convoluted) Part of me wants to believe that in a world where the Empire was actually a threat they’d have now ‘Evil’ Prompto reveal his true self, open the door to the Throne Room, THEN fight the Emperor/Faras demon there with Prompto also participating. Make them have to fight Prompto, beat him, and then do the whole friendship overpowers programming thing. I can’t help but think that would be more effective emotionally. Or have it clear that Ardyn is controlling him, have Prompto fighting back but the combat still happens. Make it so that Ignis and Gladio have to stay back and fight off the Faras demon and Prompto together while Noctis makes a run for the crystal. Make us wait the ten years and meeting up at hammerhead again to even find out if they had to kill him or not. Anything along those lines I think would have had more of an impact.

I just can’t help but feel that what was in the game was executed so poorly because they cut all the content that would have made it flow. In the end I'm just really REALLY hoping that Episode Prompto will flesh things out a bit more. From what I've heard its supposed to be a lot more story centric than the Gladio one (thank the gods). And I will gladly look forwards to anything it might tell me that contradicts my already made assumptions (granted most of this is stuff I'm fairly sure must have been cut from the game) If anyone has any similar thoughts or counterpoints I'd love to hear them <3 EDIT- I have heard there was a rumor in Versus 13 Gladio Prompto would betray Noctis and Ignis if anyone has a verifiable source pls send it to me
