It's just a talk trust me
Drama
Huggy if your Still planing on hunting that ex may I help *has a flail and dynamite*
Had a silly idea earlier for the "Opposite versions" of the bishops I guess. I have no fucking clue what to call them but they exist and I love them. But I think "Bishops of light" is a good name for now, plus it'll make organization easier for me. Feel free to ask about them tho !!
Here's a robed version along with some silly doodles (Feat. Narinder)
That's must hurt
this scene had no business being this unnerving what the actual fUCK
Bit of an odd one, but maybe mc/yuu as a blacephalon?
Hmmm....I am mostly am more aware of Lunala and Solgaleo but Blacephalon is definitely a new one for me but no fear! I already have a scenario come up ;)
"Off with your head!"
Being your usual self have caused Riddle to blew a casket and used he's UM on you when you had been irritating to him by somehow acting almost like Floyd at how cute the housewarden is.
Not a good move.
*CLAMP!*
*THUMP!*

But not as bad as he's....
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!!??!!??"
"Oh Seven!!"
"WHAT THE F**K!?!?"
Everyone in the cafeteria screamed upon the sight before them, panicking, jumping and even running away from the sight that had frighten them.
Grim screamed so loudly that he had floated high with he's face paled.
Riddle just stood frozen of what he had done. Usually he has no mercy upon collaring misbehave students but this...
Ace and Deuce screamed aswell, jumping off their sits at the scene in the cafeteria.
Trey shouted, horrified at the sight before him.
Cater fainted a second later after what had happened.
Leona and Ruggie stared at the sight near the Heartslabyul boy's table, staring at the results with dread written on their faces.
Jack dropped he's sandwhich when he had shouted like everyone else in the area.
Azul coughed out some ink at the scene beholding to him, being thankful that he didnt want Riddle's unique magic.
The tweels just stared like Leona and Ruggie but their expressions are unreadable.
Kalim and Jamil jumped from the scared they had witnessed, with the former screaming he's head off while the latter put him behind he's back out of instinct.
Vil let out a small shout at how horrendous the sight is, standing up from he's sit to back away further from the scene.
As Rook gasped in horror, Epel did like everyone else in the room as both him and the vice dorm back away as well.
Ortho let out vent that is similar to a scared and mortified gasp as he's brother's tablet had let out a sound similar to that of a sheer scream from a person going through a haunted house.
Lilia was silance but no one cant deny the slight horror on he's face as Sebek had dropped he's fork and screamed out more loudly that he's voice is the most loudest.
As for Silver...
ZzzzZzzzZzzzZzzzZ
Thank goodness Malleus isnt here.
But wait!
What could be horrifying to have scared the whole cafeteria?
Aswell as the school's staff that had come to see the commotion, only to wear the same horrified, grim, mortified and feared expressions as their students.
"Prefect Riddle Rosehearts!" Shouted Crowley as he step forward "Wha.." he had to look away from the scene "What is the meaning of this!?"
"I...I..." the said prefect waa beyond words.
Why?
Because your body was limp on the floor with the collar that he had casted for you is laying on the floor next to you.
But why isnt it on you?
Because your head was on the floor....
"Heheheheheh..."
"!!"
Very slowly, all heads (that werent "decapitated") turn to the body of the victim. Many people held onto breaths they didnt know that they held, shaking and trembling to what will happen next, but mostly watch in anticipation to know that they had think up wasnt just....made...up....
"You guys..."
Many people froze when the headless body had suddenly moved upwards in a eerily slow motion, yet it swayed abit which had quickly alarmed everyone.
Crowly, Riddle and the others near the scene backed away as your body slowly walk towards your head, picking it up with your face still unseen by them.
"Do you really think..."
Eyes widen and mouths dropped at the sight of face revealed to them, still blinking and moving with you smirking at them pkayfully at their 'funny' reactions to your 'little' trick.
"That a collar would tame little old me?? Hahahahhahaha! How funny"

"What?" You bluntly asked them as you put your head under your arm "Never seen a head before?"

"Come on guys! I though you said the Queen of Hearts decapitated heads! You said it yourself Ace!"
*THUMP!*
Lets just say, its only the beginning for you at this school...
Or rather, only the beginning for this school at your antics.
How is Rhea's relationship with Thalia? In Titan's curse, she threatened Thalia but during the war, she was friendly. If a situation comes, will Rhae threaten Thalia or just talk it out? Is she like, 'I was only friendly with you because you were needed but I would've preferred threatening you'?
Also, Rhea didn't tell Thalia about her being reincarnated or about the existence of the multiverse. Will she ever tell her?
The relationship is neutral.
During the Titan Curse they were fighting, Rhea doesn't like showing her emotions and seemed indiferent about what happened to Annabeth when in reality Rhea was angry about it, her "indiferense" made Thalia angry. Hence why Rhea threatened her.
But otherwise Rhea would prefer for Thalia to completely stay away, she is friendly with her in casual talks or like someone would be with a stranger to keep things smooth.
Also Rhea will never tell Thalia about the multiverse or the reincarnation, that was something told to Annabeth, Nico and Grover because :
Annabeth : despite what it seemed Rhea cares deeply for the girl and wanted to be her friend, so telling her about the truth to solve their falling friendship was the solution to the whole problem so Annabeth could understand why Rhea is the way she is.
Grover : Their empathy link go both ways, and he saw Aidoneus for a brief moment and heard him and Poseidonas, he could also feel Rhea’s deepest emotions which is why he partially understands Rhea despite not knowing the whole truth, telling him just finished the other part of the picture for him.
Nico : he could feel death on her as if she died and returned back in a very weird way, he asked the question and he would have asked more, Rhea also likes him so she told him.
Something for Father’s Day with these guys
This was just a quick draw because I procrastinated and almost missed it
Do you think Mabel gets too much hate? I noticed when a female character acts selfish she gets hated on but when a male character does the same it’s praised
We’re free to love or hate any character with or without reason. That said, I feel sad seeing Mabel hate and agree Mabel receives too much hate. I feel like the rhetoric claiming she’s unforgivably selfish is skewed. I think people have decent criticisms regarding Mabel’s character and how she’s presented. However, I don’t think they sufficiently describe the full picture.
Anecdotally, I don’t think this is a case of sweeping sexism because Ford also receives more criticism than I think warranted. My perspective on how much hate each character proportionately receives could be incomplete, though.
But anyway. Let’s talk Mabel.
First though: please don’t try to debate this with me. If you don’t like my opinion, no worries. That’s chill. I’m just not interested in using my recreation time debating this. Thanks! :) However, if you want further clarifications, analyses, case studies, etc. I’m happy to talk more, because this is NOWHERE close to exhausting my thoughts on this topic.
I think everyday anti-Mabel criticism tends to use points like:
When other characters act selfishly, they’re called out and the narrative punishes them. But when Mabel wants something, she gets it, and it’s a reward (The Deep End, The Time Traveler’s Pig, Escape from Reality).
Mabel never learns how to give up something important and deal with that loss. Even when she lets something go, it’s not something that would have been good in her life. For instance, her failed puppet performance is “dodging a bullet” rather than losing something meaningful, since Gabe’s just a puppet kisser. In the end, she doesn’t have to live with sacrifice (Boyz Crazy, Sock Opera).
Mabel even selfishly causes the apocalypse by giving Bill the rift. She’s never held responsible for that (Dipper and Mabel vs the Future).
The narrative reinforces that Mabel is a good person even when she’s not (The Last Mabelcorn).
People particularly look at Mabel in S2 over S1; many claim that’s when her character began to feel selfish and insufferable.
This isn’t everything, but I have tried to characterize the rhetoric fairly based upon what I’ve seen.
I find these discussion points understandable. Mabel can be self-focused and sometimes ignores others’ feelings. Alex Hirsch admitted in DVD commentaries that he focused on Dipper learning lessons because he put himself in Dipper’s shoes. And some of Alex’s writing intentions could’ve been clearer, like instances where the twins resolve conflicting desires. We could talk about how the show could be improved or the character is legitimately not-selfless.
At the same time, I think how fandom uses these talking points isn’t 100% fair to Mabel’s character or the show’s full narrative.
I want to point out that Mabel hate for her selfishness covers two fronts: one claim that Mabel is selfish, and another claim that the surrounding plot doesn’t handle her selfishness satisfactorily. I think there’s fair constructive criticism when it comes to narrative framing (even if I disagree), but I don’t think the same dialogue is good rationale against Mabel’s personality. At times I see the two concepts conflated. The narrative may annoy you if you think selfishness isn’t addressed in plot, and contribute to you disliking the character, but claiming “Mabel is selfish” because of that is flawed logic.
In this analysis, I’ll cover both fronts. I’ll tackle the four points I mentioned above and explain why I find them too harsh. I’m not going to cover all my thoughts (yes, my original draft was longer!!), but I will argue:
Mabel reverses her selfishness - and that’s the big choice sealing the climax of multiple episodes. She doesn’t get off “consequence free” either (Boyz Crazy, Sock Opera)
Mabel sacrifices for others. The narrative does show that Dipper and Mabel meet in the middle, not that Dipper feels guilty enough to ameliorate his sister’s wishes (Sock Opera, Escape from Reality)
Mabel giving the rift to “Blendin” mirrors Dipper offering a puppet to Bill. Both twins are emotionally compromised and believe they’re making a harmless deal with an inconsequential item. Neither would’ve made these choices in calmer circumstances. Sock Opera doesn’t have Dipper deal with his culpability; relax up on Mabel (Sock Opera, Dipper and Mabel vs the Future)
Mabel’s selfishness is addressed, handled, and resolved. The moral of The Last Mabelcorn isn’t defending Mabel’s goodness; it’s Mabel embracing imperfection. Mabel learns she’s a bad person and changes her perspective of herself multiple times in canon (The Last Mabelcorn, Lost Legends)
I could also have talked about how selfishness isn’t required to be resolved in her character arc, all the times Mabel does nice things for others, how she doesn’t always obnoxiously hog the spotlight, and other things, but I want to cap the length of this essay.
So let’s begin.
Anti-Mabel Argument: Circumstances don’t adversely affect Mabel. This means she never has to sacrifice for her brother like Dipper does for her. For instance, in Sock Opera, Mabel sees that Gabe is a weirdo over-obsessed with puppets. Her failed puppet performance was “dodging a bullet” rather than losing something meaningful, so she doesn’t learn true self-sacrificial love. Mabel never learns how to give something important up and deal without it. So, she never changes.
