WHO NEEDS SOME BOOPS???

Just remembered the whiplash I got from Harlan saying “timpanies” so here’s a little rant about it

Timpani is technically already a plural word. Even though it can be used for just a singular drum (ex. can you move the 29 inch timpani to the left?), the correct word for a singular timpani drum is technically timpano. Even if the orchestral setting that Kayne was in had multiple timpani players, they would probably just be called “timpani.”

Ok rant done I just remember my head WHIPPING to my phone when he said that, and I had to do a little psa for all my non music folks!

made this in 15 minutes

Allos will never understand the heartbreak and the pain of loving "too much" for friendship but "not enough" for romancw

Malevolent AU where everytime there’s foreshadowing there’s a whispering voice, that only Arthur can hear that just says “well, about that” or “foreshadowing be like” and every time Arthur just stares at The Invisible Camera like

*insert visibly scared and concerned expression*

Quick Rowan doodle. Save me weather man save me

So you know when Kayne is dunking John about his name in the Order Part II while comparing Larson and Arthur?:

KAYNE: God, you are so… unremarkable! Worthless, really. You know, I don’t hate many humans, but you – (He growls.) Look at him! I mean! Look at him! Look at Arthur. John – I mean, look at John! (Scathing.) John! What kind of Great Old One calls himself fucking John, for fuck’s sake! Do you not get it?

LARSON (quietly): No.

KAYNE: And you never will. You are nothing like Arthur! You still have your sight, for fuck’s sake! Actually… let me help you with that.

So I actually think Kayne is delighted that John goes by John. I think what he's trying to express here to Larson is why Arthur is interesting compared to him.

Arthur has an entity in his head. After a little more than a month (of which a month worth was spent in a coma) the entity calls itself John. Arthur reinforces this chosen identity.

Yellow, although having a rocky path with Arthur did have his moments of questioning things. He was interested in poetry and philosophy, and it's implied he might have had some of John's residual memories when John and the King came back together before John was thrown into the dark world. Arthur fumbled, but if they had been stuck together long enough there were signs there might have been growth. (Kayne didn't need that growth though and canceled the Arthur and Yellow reboot.) Also it seemed like Larson knew about the entity and was trying to put a wedge between them as soon as they met. From the start he appeals to Yellow's inclination toward power and godhood.

Larson has Yellow for a few weeks and he becomes the King in Yellow. Yes he gets some stronger abilities, but he has been completely encouraged to see himself as only a god. Larson is obviously manipulating him and they are not friends just mutually beneficial.

So you give Arthur a piece of the King in Yellow he becomes John. You give Larson a piece of the King in Yellow and he becomes the King in Yellow. Larson and Arthur are not the same.

And that's why Kayne finds Larson boring. He doesn't effect change, he just keeps doing what he needs to for power.

I'm not trying to pin all of John's character growth on Arthur. John had to develop for himself, but Arthur is a big proponent of why that character growth was allowed to happen.

So yeah. Kayne can make fun of John and also absolutely delight in it.

Au where kayne makes super obvious, unfunny pop culture references instead of his subtle 4th wall breaks and literally nothing else changes but kaynes scenes are so cringe that people stop listening to the show

I..... Hate you...

I hate this.... Kayne is the light of the world and this is a sin

"why r u smiling at ur phone" bc my friebds 🌈🌈🥰🌞 and i love friend 😊😊😊🫂💞 Friends 👍👍🌈 And im Happy 😊😊🫂💞👍🌈

Fun fact about me! One of my long time special interests is the 1920s/silent generation, so my current malevolent obsession just lines up in the most awful wonderful way. Anyway. Biblically accurate Arthur be upon ye.
