my piece for "reunion at dawn", a 5-year anniversary zine for fire emblem three houses :) there were already a couple pieces featuring claude + hilda + lorenz, so I wanted to make something featuring the rest of the illustrious golden deer ^^
I still think world trigger went so hard for having this scene
It’s incredibly rare in manga especially where they put a lot of emphasis on the power of friendship(which can be cheesy) or the strength of will(which can be sick as hell) but having someone straight up “yeah no none of that matters. After all if it were THAT important I wouldn’t be the best. and I am, so obviously it doesnt matter that much” what a shithead I love him
But the most important part for me comes right after the fight.
I personally like the official translation better which reads as
“Don’t get me wrong. I love passionate battles. But if you make the outcome of the battle about passion… then you might as well be saying the loser just didn’t want it enough.”
World trigger’s not as deep or big on themes like some of the other stuff I like to read, but it’s such a sincere, strategically thought-out and realistically written book that it’s really captured my heart. (Also I like how every single character gets clowned on. None of you can keep your dignity.)
beau: you had a tough childhood
kai: not really
beau: you were an orphan??? raised by bandits????
kai: oh that
veth: HE HAS MULTIPLE ARRESTS
Law's story mode is the best fucking thing in Tekken 8.

Yearly post of 2022 lmfao,,,
Happy birthday Malleus!
just saw the viral video of an East-Asian Australian influencer being ✨shocked✨ that the Aboriginal man she's interviewing on the street doesn't feel "national pride" and the comments are FULL of anti-Black, anti-Aboriginal racism. you really cannot talk about any form of racism in so-called australia without acknowledging that the white supremacist infrastructure of the nation was built on the attempted genocide and continued disenfranchisement of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples (Blakfellas). the model minority myth in Australia infers a racial hierarchy in which Blakfellas are always at the bottom. i really wish more marginalised Australians, including non-Indigenous Australians of colour, were more willing to acknowledge their settler privilege. I wish they had more empathy and compassion for Blakfellas and understood that their struggles will not go away without solidarity with Blak people because EVERY form of institutionalised racism (like the White Australia Policy) was and is built quite literally on the mass graves of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders. and for the record we cannot have pride for a nation built to kill us.
Almost every version of Hector keeps talking about Eliwood…
