i stand by my cancelled wife <3
wishing gender euphoria on all trans people, wishing for all trans people to feel at home in their bodies, to be absolutely and entirely in love with and at peace in their bodies
my doctor doesn’t recommend that i use my calcium deficiency as a pickup line.
all i’m saying is how else am i supposed to have sympathy sex?
i sorta agree with this? but there are some things i feel you may have overlooked in your analysis of the pacing.
season one was a slow trainwreck, we knew the outcome from episode one and everything was building up to the inevitable. for me it felt like being in the passenger seat of a car stuck on a train track, you can hear the sound of the gate closing, see the lights flashing, feel the ground shake as the train approaches with no means of getting out. season one was controlled chaos.
season two, had the impossible task of living up to the impeccably high expectations of its fans because of the masterful tragedy they were able to write. this is the aftermath of the train collision, you’re alive but you don’t understand how — everything is a blur, piecing through how everything led up to that point is confusing.
i personally feel that the uneasy action-packed fast pace benefits the story and works thematically for what it wishes to achieve. i write a lot, and as i writer i found some of the decisions arcane’s writing team took to be things i would’ve done had i have been in their shows.
there were times it was too hard to predict anything (especially early on) because of the direction they were going with the story. what they’ve managed to achieve is no easy feat, and writing endings is never easy.
i doubt if there was another season it would lessen the blow, it’s bittersweet that it had to end in just two seasons but i believe they’ve done an excellent job even if the pacing feels a little iffy on its own. as a collective piece, i think it compliments the first season.
Arcane Season 2 ‘s pacing is atrocious and nothing is ever properly followed up. Jinx being the face of Zaun’s revolution? Nothing comes out of it. Ekko trying to find a way to save his community from the Hextech infection and learn more about his efforts of saving Zaun? Dropped and he is absent from Act 2 until reappearing in Act 3. An exploration of Vi’s trauma? Unexplored to focus on her relationship with Caitlyn and Jinx. Caitlyn realizing the error of her ways? Skipped over so she can get with Vi. Viktor’s journey to becoming the Machine Herald out of his own choice? Sped over with Singed doing it for him. Sevika leading Zaun? Skipped over until the end where she is now a council member representing Zaun. Mel got a proper solo arc but her screentime was limited.
she is exceptionally cool, i theorise that her level of cool is beyond human and or extraterrestrial comprehension.
if there’s any GILF i aspire to be, it’s her — minus the “asking a minor to suck on your teats in return for consuming their schlong”
other than that, i fuck with her HEAVY 🙂↕️
This is, in fact, exactly the kind of pose I would expect an old lady to think is cool
GRRRR WOOF BARK BARK ABSJDKDKDJDJDBARH
that’s it. that’s the post.
ALSO. the “metaphor for capitalism”* that turns up in pavitr’s universe is literally a spot hole and not the glitchy stuff that was eating up the universe miguel fucked with when he went to impersonate an alternate version of himself.
*god i love hobie sm
pavitr’s universe is unstable BECAUSE spot is gathering up enough energy + strength to become an inter dimensional being that transcends space and time just so he can get even with a 15yo kid
bitches out here in the spider society tweakin’ over canon events when there is a wild polka-dotted middle aged man with a phd beefing with a child cause they didn’t take them seriously
ARGH !!! after everything spot has caused not enough people are talking about how integral he is to the canon let alone the web of destiny he is a literal PLOT HOLE !!
i love that silly goofy goober T^T
(waa-waa) “canon events”
(waa-waa) “it was supposed to happen”
(waa-FUCKING-waa) “web of fate & destiny”
BITCH.
mfs out here really blaming miles ALONE for the multiverse collapsing in on itself and for what?
“oh um. aCtUaLLy miles you saved someone else’s dad sooooo… we gotta let yours die cause canon gotta canon yk?”
BRUH.
miguel pulled a “iykyk” on miles and basically whooped his ass for not knowing. my guy just got here and you’re already mad.
the shit that pisses me off the most is this…
when miles first interacts with miguel he mentions he has some “new/fresh ideas on how to capture spot”*
*i’m paraphrasing here but yk that line was said
miguel replies by shutting down that conversation and saying “i’ll worry about spot” AND THEN PROCEEDS TO CHASE DOWN A 15YO CHILD ON ALL FOURS, LOSE A FIGHT TO HIM AND MONITOR HIS DAD TO MAKE SURE HE DIES AND MILES DOESN’T INTERFERE !!!
when the fuck was this mf gonna worry about spot???
WHY IS NO ONE TALKING ABOUT SPOT WHEN IT COMES TO THE CANON EVENT THEORY, MILES IS ONE HALF OF THE ORIGINAL ANOMALY !!!
MILES WOULD NOT BE SPIDER-MAN IF NOT FOR SPOT // ALCHAMEX BRING THAT SPIDER FROM ANOTHER DIMENSION !!!
idk why i’m so mad about this, it’s just something i’ve noticed recently that’s getting on my nerves ARGH
I just got described as an "ad hating commie" by someone because I said a minute of youtube ads is unpleasant. fully spent 5 minutes arguing and defending youtube ads. insane stuff
