Getting What You Deserve

Someone made a point about Heartstopper which was so true and just made me realise one of the reasons why Heartstopper was so good. Basically they said that the show has tension but doesn’t create discomfort for the viewer that a lot of romance does. I never really noticed until I was thinking about how most romance wether in drama or comedy makes me have to walk out a room or hide behind a cushion, I can still enjoy a romcom if I watch with my mum but I can never properly sit through it. But Heartstopper was enjoyable and happy and I felt a sense of anticipation rather than dread. It was more romantic because every couple felt full of love and care rather uncomfortable drama. They communicated and built a relationship in a way that I haven’t seen before. You could truly see how much every couple cares for each other

Ares in Mythology:

Kills the guy who tried to assault his daughter and refused to apologize for it when he got put on trial (it was ruled justifiable homicide by Athena btw). 

The only time he’d been captured in battle was when he was protecting his mom from being captured by giants who wanted to forcibly marry her.

Found and Freed Thanatos when he was imprisoned by Sisyphus when no other Gods could

Helps found the Amazons by helping their founder escape her abusive husband and becomes their patron God.

Genuinely loves and respects Aphrodite as her own person

One of his epithets is “feasted by women”.

Ares in Modern Media: 

Meatheaded sexist asshole out of an eighties teen movie.

Conclusion: My boy is getting done dirtier than Hades in modern representation. Ares is one of the least problematic Gods in the pantheon (except for the murders, I will grant you) and ya’ll are sleeping on him.

TOMORROW IS HALLOWEEN!!!

“Appeal to a wider audience” is corporate lingo for “strip more themes from a piece of media so it’s safer and more sanitized for investors”

"So about that NPC you like..."

“So you remember that tragic part of your backstory?”

Two brothers growing up.

Working diligently together, doing the same jobs together…

Raised to be witch hunters, it’s what they’ve always wanted…

They meet a witch and follow them to the Demon Realm…

The brother supports his younger, even as he suffers from consuming palismen…

But then the elder falls in love and even has a child coming, Philip is unhappy;

He confronts husband and wife…

Shows his true intentions as they have a knife duel…

And sees his bloody eyes in the reflection of his knife.

The wife attempts to avenge her husband, casting a spell on the younger that may or may not have cast its mark…

And the surviving brother, he harvested all of his brother’s bones, so he could get another chance with him… Only to enjoy killing him over and over again. As he had the first time…

Castiel: I love you

Me: Dear god what’s happened now
