Okay ik this is random but I canāt be the only one who thinks Percy Jackson and Number Five would get on really well
So I just created an account on this mess of a website just to say this: it is not a phase. No sexuality is ever a phase. And that's because it can't be a phase if you were never that sexuality to begin with. If you ever came out as/ identified with a specific term and then decided you actually weren't said term, it was simply a phase of exploration. Seeing what feels right. And that's okay! There's nothing bad about getting something wrong every once in a while. So next time someone says 'it's just a phase', don't let it get to you, because you know theyre wrong.
This is made exclusively to punish Alexander Hamilton for getting this song stuck in my head.
Something Iāve been thinking about are the positions that the Hamato Clan were in when Casey Junior first wakes up at the Lair
Mikey, Donnie & April are all gathered around Splinter, while Raph is standing guard between them & Casey Junior and Leo is standing right in front of Casey Junior.
April: And then I saw that picture and I brought him here.
At that point in the movie the Hamato Clan donāt know anything about Casey Junior other than he has a picture of them & possibly knows about their existence meaning he could possibly be a threat.
April & Splinter have often been a duo throughout Rise so it would make sense that April would go to Splinter when she thinks that there could be a possible threat to the Hamatoās & it would make sense for Mikey & Donnie to stick close as Donnie would want to gather data while Mikey tends to want to stick close to family during times of danger.
Raph: Iām the oldest here. Iām responsible for keeping us safe
Meanwhile Raph stands guard between his family & Casey Junior because of his role as the protector of the family, what Raph is doing is putting himself between his family & any possible danger
In contrast to Raph who puts himself between his family & any possible danger, Leo puts himself right next to any possible danger which allows him to be the first to react to the possible threat.
Leo is the first one that notices when Casey Junior wakes up because heās standing right in front of him & then Leo makes a big display of being shocked over Casey Junior waking up in order to alert the rest of his family that Casey Junior is awake.
The positions the Hamato Clan were in when Casey Junior first woke up in the Lair shows how they automatically respond to possible threatsĀ
Splinter, April, Donnie & Mikey respond to possible threats by closing ranks & sticking together. Raph responds to possible threats by putting himself in between his family & the possible danger and Leo responds to possible threats by putting himself as close to the danger as possible
c!Wilbur analysis/rant :))
Itās easy to write c!wilbur off as power-hungry and manipulative, but itās all a matter of perspective.
(For simplicityās sake, when I say āWilburā just assume Iām talking abt the character unless I say otherwise) (also, this is my perception of the character and may not be entirely accurate) (also this is really long Iām sorry)
So honestly Iām fairly sure the paranoia started at the very first war of Lāmanburg. Even prior to that, Wilbur was clearly stressed about conflict (mostly due to Tommyās recklessness) and even just presidency in general. But especially when the conflicts built into a war, Wilbur had a large fear of appearing vulnerable (to his people and to Dream). He was afraid of being perceived as weak and being taken advantage of as a result. (keep in mind they also experienced a brutal betrayal amidst all of this, so naturally heās afraid that his control is slipping). But basically his goal was to provide Lāmanburg with a respectable leader to make sure Dream doesnāt see their weakness as an opening.
So when it came to the election, Iād say he rigged it out of desperation more than anything. The desperation to maintain control over the decisions Lāmanburg makes because heās afraid of leaving it up to anyone else (naturally). This meant that when Schlatt was suddenly the one in control, he was immediately terrified that he could no longer influence anything important such as the tides of war. And literally not even ten minutes later, it got worse. Suddenly, he had no power at all, as he was now driven out of the only place he had ever felt safe.
During exile, one of his biggest nightmares came true. He was vulnerable. Exposed. Physically and mentally. And at this point, it was obvious that his paranoia spiked. At this point, the pressure of trying to be a hero had weighed on him so much that he was practically forced into the role of the villain.
This fear continues through the entire Pogtopia era, as heās still got himself convinced that he has no power over anything (hence his lack of action during the execution at the Manburg festival). Getting the tnt from Dream was, once again, a desperate action. By allowing Dream to use/treat him as a vassal, he really just wants a reason to be important again. To be useful, like he no longer can in (Lā)Manburg. Keep in mind there was also the additional pressure of leading a rebellion, and balancing that with trying to provide for Dream.
When he destroyed Lāmanburg, it was more out of frustration and exhaustion rather than hatred. He said āif I canāt have this no one can, Philā, implying that heās tired of everything being taken from him. He also says that āthere was a special placeā, which probably means that heās afraid of Lāmanburg affecting people the way it affected him.
He also could have done it out of the overwhelming need to feel important. By making such an impact on the server, he can maintain what little remnants of power he has left. Due to exhaustion, he wanted to die, but at the very least he wanted his story to live on, and at this point heād do anything to make it happen (once again, desperation). His death wasnāt one of escape, it was one of release. He didnāt do it to run away from consequences, though he was obviously oblivious to what heād have to go through in limbo. You can also tell because as heās stood at the button, when Phil arrives, thereās clear stress in his voice, not at being caught, but at the fact that for the 8/9th time, he canāt help himself like he so desperately wants to do. However, when that stress dies down and he realises that he can still do it, thereās nothing but pure relief and resolution in his voice. Heās glad that, for the first time in his life, he finally has a symphony that he can finish.
Then limbo happens, and bam, Revivebur. Now he hasnāt been around nearly as long, so thereās not much to say, but anyway. About the manipulation thing, again, itās all about control. His fear of not having and power over anything obviously carried over into the afterlife. Itās really just the whole concept (which could be considered as a sentence mechanism) of gaining control over others before they can control you. Of course this doesnāt entirely justify outright manipulating people, but it gives you a better idea of why he might be doing it rather than āheās evil and wants nothing but power over everyoneā. You can also tell by how much he enjoys his conflict with Quackity that heās just excited to finally feel in control of conflict again for the first time in (most likely) years.
Or cc!Wilbur really just want to be a cool villain, who knows.
That concludes my rant that Iāve recited to myself more times than I can count. My fingers hurt. Thank you :)
Watching this scene from "Portal Jacked" again and, the one where Leo's sword gets Portal Jacked, and it didn't resonate with me last time, but Leo in that scene, his expression, his voice? I just...
Cuz look at him when he finally gets frustrated by it all:
and when he says "Because I have no sword" his face immediately falls before ge lets out a frustrated grunt.
It told me here that he probably carries a lot of value in himself because he has his Ådachi, turning the "Because I have no sword" to "I'm useless now".
Now look at his eyes, you know what they reminds me of?
It's in details like these that I can tell more about his character, the moments where he's shocked, scared, in realization, or simply a long coming frustrated break down, even if it's just for a little bit.
Then the part that follows right after, where he basically states that he couldn't do this on his own (a team can't just be a face man: "there's no team with just a face man!"), I need my brainy guy, and my smashy guy, and my eats peanut butter with his fingers guy!, he needs his brothers, and then what follows next actually made my heart ache:
Look at that face, you can't tell me he wasn't trying to cry, and then the way his voice cracks when he states, bold and clear:
"I'm nothing without them."
Because his voice actually cracks when he says "without", but it begins when he says "nothing".
Look at the way he looks at his hands, at himself. This is not the first time he's thought this, that he's nothing without his brothers, but I think this might be the first time he's ever said it out loud and it's heartbreaking.
