Essek Skyrocketing My Pulse Making Me Come Out Of My Hiatus Hole And Sketch At 4:30 Am

spent way too long making a shadowgast propaganda slideshow for the tumblr ship poll….. EVERYONE GO VOTE NOW FOR THE BEST SHIP IN THE BRACKET!

Everybody: -*Arguing over the Clocktower vs Apple Imagery*- Me: -*Waiting for the Lady in Glasses analysis to start up again*-

There's something so bittersweet, though, about 'Seth Domade', sorcerer and archivist of the Cobalt Soul.

Something about Seth being from a tavern family, a place where you'd be surrounded by laughter and life; no pretension, no expectations, no loneliness. Something about Essek's mother being an Umavi, and Seth's being an ordinary tavernkeep. 'My mother has never made Kraft cheese' vs 'my mother can stop time with her ale!' Something about Seth being a sorcerer, a class that just gets their talent and doesn't have to work and work and work to achieve more, until you've shut out everything else but your studies. Something about Seth being in the Cobalt Soul, where he'd always have peers and where all knowledge is shared.

Something, too, about Seth being a human from a humble family who realised he had arcane talent, and went off and studied and was happy. Something about Seth being a combination of the life Caleb should have lived, and the life Essek never could.

i think actually the key to successfully doing tumblr (and especially doing fandom on tumblr) is realising that your blog is your little house and you can post about whatever you like there. once you realise you are just living in and decorating your very own silly little online house you start focusing on what makes you happy rather than constantly performing for & compromising your tastes for & placing all your self worth on little scraps of clout, and you will be a lot happier for it

Here's a CAT

So far my favorite bit of re-watching C2 is Caleb being asked about the Academy and immediately deflecting by summoning a cat. "My backstory? HERE'S A CAT, ASK NO QUESTIONS."

i am laughing at caleb and nott assuring each other that if things go sideways they'll be the first out the door, together, and nott says, "they'll never know who we were!" and caleb confirms, "caleb and nott" which is so hilarious in retrospect because THEY didn't even know who each other were. if they'd left? yeah, the others never would have known who they were. they only would have known caleb and nott, never veth and bren. and neither of them even know they're both using fake names yet

So. . . Related to the post I made a second ago, but I was discussing the theory with a sibling of mine,

When we came across something BIG

ON THE DAY OF UNITY THEY’RE GOING TO USE THE WITCHES TO FLIP THE TITAN LIKE THE ICEBERG ON CLUB PENGUIN AND RELEASE THE COLLECTOR 

(And also crash the server/get all the witches perma-banned from life, naturally)

We can go home everyone, we’ve figured out the big reveal

As Other people have been saying, he only had One eye-thing in Season 4 (Also also only one eye-thing on the uniforms) - And Another thing, When he Spoke in the beginning of the most recent first ep.?? HE SPOKE IN THE SINGLE VOICE HE USED IN SEASON 1 EPSIODE 6, WHEN HE WAS SAYING EVERYTHING WAS HIS FAULT - HELLO????? HELLO HOLY GOODNESS??????

WE KNOW ONE-ONE AS, WELL, ONE-ONE, ONE HAPPY AND ONE PESSIMISTIC SIDE - BUT WHATEVER MADE THE TRAIN, HOWEVER IT WAS BEFORE AMELIA’S TAKE OVER. . . WAS IT ORIGINALLY SUPPOSED TO BE THE ‘ONE’ WE SAW HERE IN SEASON 4? I MEAN, I THINK IT’S CLEAR IT WAS - ALSO ALSO EVERYTHING WAS MORE SYSTEMATIC, WHAT WITH UNIFORMS AND RELIEVING OF PERSONAL ITEMS AND SUCH/THE ADDITION OF THOSE BOOTS THAT CAN KEEP A PASSENGER IN PLACE FOR ‘ANNOUNCEMENTS’ (ALSO ALSO THERE WERE MORE STEWARDS?!?!?!?!) - CLEARLY, THIS WAS THE ORIGINAL INTENTION (as far as we know) ON HOW THE TRAIN WAS SUPPOSED TO BE RUN.

WHAT I WANNA KNOW IS. . . HOW EXACTLY DID ‘ONE’ BECOME. . . ONE-ONE. . . 

there was A Lot to unpack in Book 4 but something I haven't seen mentioned on here is One-One's whole,, situation. He's only referred to as One by the captions, similarly to how Amelia referred to him in Book 1, and he seems to only have one VA. (I can't confirm this, but I'm pretty sure his design is slightly altered here too??) so was. was Amelia TEARING him out of the train what caused his alternating personality?? hello???

!! Spoiler for Peeps who don't know the majority of the M9 Campaign Events !!

I'm sorry, but Molly saying to Toya at the start of the episode that Kyle had something bad inside him, something that made him do bad things and couldn't help it. . .

And I can't help but be reminded of how Molly rises again, way down the line through no intention of his own, and isn't quite Molly no more. . . Someone who does many really, really bad things ;u;
