Madam presi?!
michael has nowhere near as much personality nor swag as wes so in keeping w Pokémon XD’s themes of anti-capitalism i like to think he’s just the most marxist child imaginable
this child has fought shadow lugia, moltres, articuno, and zapdos in the same fucking battle. orre trainers are truly built different
What's this from? I thought From Lostbelt ended?
CHASMATIS
For my own archive
the first thing you'll realise about Fate/stay night is that it's kind of stupid. you realise this when someone recommends it to you and explains the premise
what makes this realisation funny is that, after you've read it, you will forget this realisation entirely. you will begin to recommend it to a friend with all the sincerity someone deeply emotionally touched by a work can muster, at which point you'll realise how you sound
because at its core, Fate/stay night is one of the most sickeningly sincere manifestos about love and idealism ever written, but it's also a story about going on dates with genderbent king arthur and being the bone of your sword. you can't have one without the other

Don't forget
This scene this scene this scene this scene undoes all my domestication at once. What motivated Morgan to destroy king Arthur so viciously? What motivated Morgan to sacrifice everything she had (including personhood, happiness and life) to rule a country that hated her? What could lead a single person to take such drastically different paths in each iteration?
That's easy. While their methods are different, the goal was the same; Morgan- every Morgan- genuinely, profoundly loved Britain. And Morgan- every Morgan- was rejected by Britain at every turn.
Morgan doesn't give a shit about her ruling right. In the lostbelt, she would have been perfectly fine with Mab and/or Cnoc taking things over. In panhuman history, she didn't even try to rule Camelot after the fall of Camlann. The one thing the one thing the ONE thing Morgan wants, above everything is a home. But the only way for Britain to survive in the lostbelt was by her becoming a tyrant. And the only shot she had in phh was by stopping Mystery from being driven out of the island- ie, by stopping King Arthur as she brought forth the age of man.
Don't get me wrong. Phh Morgan is a bitch and a motherfucker. But when you see her side of the story as "I am desperately trying to not get evicted" suddenly her actions make a lot more sense. From her perspective, she is being driven out, chased away from the one place she's ever known- where to? The reverse side of the world, a land of fairies, when she herself is partially human? To stay in this world, to become a witch, shunned by all, as Beryl's story tell us?
Lostbelt Morgan and phh Morgan are two very different people, because they have different experiences, and because (according to her profile) losbelt Morgan is much older and as such chilled out a lot on the whole death and murder thing. But if you were to ask who is Morgan? What is the common thread, the core of her character you will find in every world? then here is your answer:
Morgan is an incredibly ruthless person, capable of the most virtuous acts and the most intense cruelty for her goals.
Morgan, truly, sincerely, loved Britain.
Morgan does not belong anywhere.
