“Also Ra’s was drawn like a gilf, so that’s a bonus.” I 100% agree with everything you said, and this statement especially.
Okay Robin #4 was such a good ass issue and I REALLY appreciate what it did to Ra’s al Ghul. I think we as a fandom don’t really talk about how over the years Ra’s has been turned into a boring one-dimensional genocidal psychopath the same way we do with talking about Talia, since obviously with Talia it was a drastic 180 degree change/character butchering, while with Ra’s has always been a villain so the change wasn’t as noticeable with him, but this issue and the whole run so far have seriously reminded me that all of the al Ghuls work better and are far more entertaining as morally-ambiguous characters rather than straight-up evil villains.
Also Ra’s was drawn like a gilf, so that’s a bonus.
I also need to post individually each video, since Tumblr only allows one. @caelum-in-the-avatarverse
Drawing by Yale Stewart of young Morpheus and Death! Love it a lot!
Death doesn't discriminate / Between the sinners and the saints / It takes and it takes and it takes / And we keep living anyway / We rise and we fall and we break / And we make our mistakes / And if there's a reason I'm still alive / When everyone who loves me has died / I'm willing to wait for it
Damm, I didn’t expect to get more backstory on Yong and now his family, but now I really glad we did. (Oh, you have no idea how happy I am whenever I see a notification telling me you posted)
@persononplanet replied to your post @persononplanet replied to your post Okay but if…
Oh definitely, being a Dai Li agent that tortures definitely does not help the entire ‘I like walking over people and feeling superior to them’ part XD.
And one of my assessments was quite right! Yay! He likes the power and control he has over others (because of vague handwave yong doesnt know and will not just stop a sec for self reflection)
And yup, i’m very certain yong is overall disliked by the entirety of re-education because of that little stunt he pulled, woop.
And yes, actually, if due to some reason Tuan, Yong, and Shirong were stuck together, then Shirong would out of plain annoyance of them and pure boredom just continue thinking and analyzing the situation and then just sigh and try to solve a bit of the issue.
Cuz your work may be torture and dark stuff, it’s no excuse to be an overall dick. (Which Shirong, coincidentally, is a perfect example of. That man is a psychological torturer. In a way, it’s worse.
He drives people to insanity, watches, pushes his victims some more, and then manipulates them into trusting him so that he can do whatever the feels like. It’s dark, terrifying, and its really underplayed in the overall atla fandom how fucking terrifying and terrible brainwashing is.)
And despite that all, Shirong isn’t an asshole. He can make friends (sure he got like…one…but thats more than actual friends Yong has) and he can treat people with more respect and care than yong.
Plus, shirong is a wholesome godfather. Cuz eventho he overall dislikes to be surrounded by people (like banquets etc etc) he likes that little family so he’ll put up with them and try to be nice to his friend’s little kiddo.
Yong has a family, we see them briefly in that winter solstice party fic, but I doubt Yong would be a good and loving husband and father. He has literally never shown any semblance of caring about anyone or treating anyone with respect,
So i kinda feel bad for her, living with the Head of Investigation, a man who doesnt care about anyone but himself and has a big time hunger for power and, more importantly, a feel of having power, musn’t be a happy home situation.
Then again we’ve never really seen yong’s home situation, who knows, maybe his wife is literally the only person he actually cares about but personally I doubt it. If many, many years of being dai li partners can’t make him care even a tad bit about tuan,
Then why would yong care for the wife that was higher in status than him and - probably - has some wealth and power as well? He probably doesnt. And while thats alright in a society where arranged marriages and political marriages take place, you *are* supposed to treat her with some respect. Which i doubt he does.
But the most sad part would be the daughter. His poor daughter.
Her father is basically the biggest jerk in the kingdom and only the jade emperor knows what she has seen happen between her mother and father…
If yong is how yong always is, even at home, then i feel so damn bad for that child. I know exactly what its like to feel unloved, alone, and forgotten and I wouldn’t wish that to this innocent little kiddo.
At least tuan’s her godfather and her mother -probably- tries her best
*coughs* Actually you don’t have to worry about Yong’s wife and kid at all.
Like you really don’t.
Not like that, anyway. I mean maybe worry about them a little? But not like that.

I think everyone has forgotten that the most important thing about the casting of Death in Netflix’s The Sandman is that she can successfully bounce a loaf of bread off of Tom Sturridge’s head.
I love how they’re already getting into their roles. It’s adorable 🥰

ok so from what i’ve read and heard prussians were originally baltic right? and hetalia prussia was the teutonic order during the northern crusades, which meant that he would have met and led to the death of many of the original balts right?

How is it possible that The Endless have parents when they came into existence once first sentient lifeforms were capable of having their aspects?
Because there was Night, and then there was Time, before there were any sentient things.
