I like the idea that Chishiya, Kuina , Usagi and Arisu all travelled together after the destruction of the beach and they met in like the weird control room. and obviously their going to be on the move a lot, either trying to out run old beach members who are pissed because Chisiya was like a high raking member and Arisu was probably seen with the official people ( I forgot their names shhh). Also having to find new food/medical supplies and also just following games and shit. now most transports don't work (other than really old bikes and stuff as we know from that one lowkey dull running game but the odds of finding enough shit for that is hard) so their probably going to use bikes. but oh no there's a problem. Chishiya and Arisu cant ride a bike. they just never learnt because, and I mean really, look at the two of them. do they look like the kind of people that have the physical prowess to ride a bike? no. no they don't. so now they have to sit on the back on Kuina and Usagi's bikes when ever they go, either sitting in one of those little toddler baby seat things OR standing on the like back wheel axle thing.
My one thing I want in life is a deep 50k word social media mutuals who sometiems talk, to accidental pannel hosters together, to friends, to sorta awkward frenemies back to friends, to lovers Aguni/Hatter fic set as them like cosplayers. Aguni does more like video game cosplays and Hatter does more action movie/ cool tv show cosplays and shit. Oh and also like sleep. Sleep would be nice aswell
Arisu: so yeah in ancient greece and Rome they’d read the entrails of thier blood sacrifice to predict the future
Usagi: facinating
Chishiya: I wonder what my guts would predict Arisu: I would prefer not to see your guts? please and thank you<3
Chishiya: just for that heart Kuina come chop me open your gonna read the future
I just realised McDonalds wont be like a thing in borderland cuss obviously everyone's like gone. How am I meant to fulfil my brain for its need to picture Arisu surrounded by a mcflurry, a bunch of napkins, a large drink and a box of 20 chicken nuggets that he's frantically shoving in his mouth as his sobs whilst watching mlp now???
imagine if one of the games was just one of those large inflatable obstacle courses that some pools
like these things???? but bigger. honestly the point isn't to kill players or twist their hearts and emotions or anything the point is just for the game masters to have a laugh at like 8 people rushing across this as it gradually gets wetter and wetter and more slippery and them screaming as they fall off.
went to a bodybuilding competition. i misunderstood the objective and brought with me water (35 L), carbon (20 kg), ammonia (4 L), lime (1.5 kg), phosphorus (800 g), salt (250 g), saltpeter (100 g), sulfur (80 g), fluorine (7.5 g), iron (5 g), silicon (3 g) and trace amounts of fifteen other elements
you know the cats vs dogs movie from like 2001? the one where the cats/dogs are in a super high tech war without their owners knowing and there's one REALLY fluffy white cat that gave me nightmares that I was gonna wake up with it suffocating me? yeah anyway all I can think about is a Chishiya (the cats duh) vs Arisu (the dogs. duh) war with like Hatter (Arisus side) and Aguni ( chishiyas side) as their owners (not kinky it just sounds weird but I swear context please context). honestly idk if this post makes sense I just wanted to talk about this movie because I rembered it from having a nightmare of that one stupid fucking murderous evil cat again. that, that cat is MY enemy.
Not to be rude but if your opinion is "random 'friendship is magic' moments in shows ruin the entire thing"....I don't think FairyTail is worth watching for you??? I see that as the main critism and like thats kinda intertwined with the themes of Fairy Tail.
Like the fights are essentially just there to look cool and to force the bonds between the guild into a position of strain. They are blatantly plot devices and they don't try to hide it. They are entertaining because your main characters are casting magic and hitting people; what they arn't is amazingly planned out in each detail to make sure no character is winning in a situation where they shouldn't. Cuss it just ain't that kinda media. Go watch something else and save yourself the time cuss you just fundimentally dislike a core device of the show ya know?
I haven't read the series nor learnt anything about the rest of it as I’m waiting till their either translated to English or the show comes out so I can have my heart ripped to shreds completely virgin to what the series holds but I’m just so interested in the cards. I mean there's 52 normal playing cards but there's also 2 jokers building it up to 54 cards. Now I know logically the show isn't going to use the joker cards but they are rather interesting I mean when they were first written into the rule book (although they had existed long before that) their status was actually above all the cards. obviously now its used in other contexts depending on the game you play (example it may be used to skip a players turn, it may also be the lowest ranking card or some other ability.). Its main purpose throughout is to be a wild card. obviously all the important characters relate to a Alice in wonderland character- which ones are somewhat up to interpretation since how one reads Alice in wonderland and also how one interprets the characters motives of Alice in borderland varies vastly. But I mean come on the cards are such an integral part of the series- as well as Alice in borderland- so it only makes sense for the characters to relate to the cards as well. I could probably rant about the characters and their cards, how perhaps their card are the ones we first meet them in, or the ones they die in, maybe the ones they held the most impact on. But then there's certain characters that we meet that do hold enough purpose in the show to be memorable yet either don't fit any of those descriptions or meet multiple. Perhaps its only the face cards- the jack, queen, king and ace- that hold characters dear to them. I mean Mira is the red queen herself no? in both characterisation and card references and yet that seems to easy. For it to only be the face cards when we meet so many influential characters. I mean heck playing cards I’d find myself winning ( or rather losing since I always guessed wrong and would win to many games) on something as stupid as the 2 of trumps. So its not like the normal cards are something to scoff at- used correctly and their more useful then the ace for crying out loud. But I'm getting off track, the most obvious character for the Joker would be hatter, I mean dudes insane and basically made for the role. But I mean, come on, the even more obvious choice is Arisu. Dudes build to be a wild card. From a nothing in the real world, a shut in who plays games all day. Yet he seems to be one of the best game players in the series for things like hearts and Diamonds. his innocents, ability to make characters love him or feel sympathy, quick wit and much more make him stupidly good at the two heart games we’ve seen in the show so far. He’s a wild card within the universe. A trump card. but I mean theres two jokers in most decks. A red and a black one. balance and all that. If we go with Hatter being the joker then obviously its Aguni. but then I didnt go for hatter so fuck that. I think Chishiya would be the other joker. Their both working for the same thing, both playing off each other in diffrent ways and both great at the same games ( although both will deny being good at heart games). In the end I could only ever see those two ‘beating’ borderland. how they’d do it would be diffrent but they’d do it together or not.
their the trump cards in the deck that is borderland. or maybe I’m really fucking sleepdeprived and lowkey havent had a coherent thought in like 2 weeks and am trying not to post about Hatter being a furry. its probally that one. eitehr way I want a joker game and I want it to be heart breaking.
I both love and hate Oedipus Rex because the end is so stupid.
The whole play is (in one interpretation!) about self-identity and the battle between knowing who we are and how we are percieved by ourselves and the world around us. You'd expect for Oedipus to end the play fully relalized and yet...
By blinding himself, which, yes it is out of guilt and is a form of self-flagellation, but it also acts as a way to continue ignoring who he is. Without eyes he cannot see his children, the genetic abominations, nor does he have to see the world he has helped corrupt. He can continue to live in bliss. In his blindness he does not become Tiresias- he is not a prophet- he is just a pathetic man as scared as us to see himself in the mirror.
