I GOT TO PET THE DOG MY LIFE IS COMPLETE

Ah. Nevermind. Started episode Aigis.

Smh I thought I was supposed to die at the end of the game, credits are rolling and I am not, in fact, dead. How dare I be misled so, either by the game faking me out or by the internet.

Ok but Akechi had to get that Joker plush custom made, it's not like Joker's appearance is public. He had to find a person both able and willing to make a custom plushie, then he had to give them some sort of reference to make the plushie based off (which,, he probably had to give a description because cameras don't work in the metaverse. A very detailed description, because the plushie is accurate.) He probably paid a lot of money because custom plushies aren't cheap, I feel like this information is very important for everyone to know

Anyway amazing comic 20/10

oops

Reading this and then reading the comments and reblogs feels like people are deliberately missing the point and continuing to describe the places where shuake's 'toxicity' is on display. Mainly, the interrogation room. Y'all, y'all, they're enemies in the interrogation room. Akechi has no choice but to kill Joker in the interrogation room, because Shido wants Joker dead. The interrogation room and all the lying and manipulating each other outside of it all happen because they are doomed. They're both pawns in a twisted game, manipulated against each other to suit their respective roles. We never technically see them in canon outside of some sort of doomed context (even in third sem) but they still manage to make each other better even when they're doomed. Akechi gives up his revenge plans for Joker, and Joker lets go of an 'ideal' reality with Akechi to respect Akechi's wishes. They both improve after meeting one another, it's definitely not toxic.

common misconception is that shuake is toxic: WRONG. they are doomed. it is not them that fucks up their relationship; in fact, they actually are shown to improve each other rather than detriment. its their circumstances that fuck them up so so bad. literal god pit them against each other. they love each other but the world does not love them

Shadow has so much going for him here, there's no way he's NOT gonna be my favorite. He was my favorite manga character, now he's got the triforce of power, and years of ruminating on unresolved angst. Plus, while I don't know if there's an actual main character, so far Shadow's our main character. He's the one with the most potential to go one way or the other, and have his decisions seriously affect how the story goes. Vaati will likely remain a villain till the end, where he'll either be defeated or redeemed. Link (and by extension Green, Red, Blue, & Vio) will remain a hero. Shadow could go either way, and it's super fun!!

Dark is next on my favorites, he's new, and he's a weirdo. I love that. 20/10. Plus extra chest eye points. Vaati is also up there, he has angst, and, say it with me now,

✨ PRESENTATION ✨

Green, Vio, and OG Link are characters I like, but they're not quite up to favorites. This is mostly due to a lack of knowledge, though Vio is edging up to favorite.

Zelda, Red, and Blue? I have too little to go off right now. I like the ideas behind em, but those ideas haven't quite been given enough time for me to fully understand yet.

Favorite FSR character?

I'm not including Captain dad, Ganon, or Perry because they didn't have much screen time.

I'd love to hear "why" they're your favorite too but that's not mandatory.

A couple I doodles I made for my fic What Happens When A Detective, A Mass Murderer, An Assassin and A Thief Time Travel?

Just... Snagging this for later

Headcanon time!

Ryoji, being whatever the fuck he is™ is constantly swarmed by shadows during the dark hour. But not in a 'they're trying to kill him' way, more in an 'involuntary cuddle pile with goop' way. Shadows are completely docile towards him, even friendly, because he's one of them and also stupid strong so he can protect them. He can order them to do simple tasks if he wants, though he probably never would because Ryoji either doesn't understand the goopy monsters that really seem to like him, or he's ashamed of himself and refuses to use his authority over shadows that way (y'all have no idea how much self-loathing I can slap into this little blorbo I swear to Nyx.)

Ok I look at a lot of Link AUs, and a lot of people like to make all the different links have very different looks. So for me, because he's my favorite link in my favorite game, here's sky.

I love him so much I would kill for him you are not allowed to dislike Skyward sword in my presence when there is this amazing lil guy in it

Ryoji Mochizuki palace where it's not Tartarus but actually a Cathedral.

Everywhere you look, it's dedicated to the Great Seal. Stained glass windows made in their image line the walls, statues carved into a familiar teenager hung by chains. Their story is depicted like a religious text, with Ryoji himself as the devil. There to trick the seal into pursuing the full moon shadows, to lie his way into being the seal's friend, to tempt the Great Seal away from delivering salvation to the world. It does not matter that Ryoji was missing his memories, that he was doing whatever he could to help his dearest friend, he was always a monster. One that was unworthy of the Seal's forgiveness, of their mercy.

Ryoji's shadow can always be found crying in front of a depiction of the Great Seal. He begs for someone to please take their revenge, to punish him for what he's done, it's all his fault, he killed the Great Seal, they would still be alive if not for him. He cannot let you take his treasure, he cannot let you take away his guilt. When you fight Ryoji, he appears as a grotesque replica of the Nyx Avatar. There is no more elegance, no more ethereal beauty to be found in Nyx's Appraiser, he is simply a monster.

Ryoji's treasure is the protagonist's evoker. A representation of how they fought to save the world, and how they accepted death to do so. Ryoji could not accept that death, so he clung to it. He clung to their memory instead of facing them himself, because he felt too much guilt.

Name: Ryoji Mochizuki

Location: Gekkoukan High School's rooftop

Distortion: Cathedral of Grief

I ask this dude why he's not wearing a shirt and he calls me stupid and I think that's amazing dialogue. I probably should've asked something responsible like what their goals were but when faced with the option to finally get an answer as to why this dude is letting his nipples out constantly regardless of temperature I just had to take it. I didn't even get a straight answer it's incredible.
