"Breathe looks like a thin, cropped tank top with mesh panels to keep the user cool. While it's normally tight fighting, Breathe contains a smart alloy material called Nitone that, when electrified, loosens the garment. It's battery operated and can be adjusted with a remote controller, so the user can discreetly change how tight the binding is -- there's no need to change their clothing or go into a private space in order to take a break. There's also an optional feature that will automatically loosen the device when the user is playing a sport."
so the netflix show has already shown us two of dream's other aspects, kai'ckul and the king of cats, but one of my favourite things about the endless in the comics is that they have a different incarnation for every single species and culture that has ever experienced them, in this case, if your people dream, you have a personalised Dream
and the comics are also part of the dcu, which means there are a LOT of other species out there to dream
many of these screenshots were taken from one issue which involves a meeting in dream's head between all of his different incarnations, some are just from other places in the comic, but my personal favourites include:
l'zoril, dream god of the green martians
to fill out the superheroes requirement, kryptonian dream
fish dream
flower dream, and tree dream
femme dream, with just as much dedication to not wearing a shirt as her masculine counterpart
bird dream, insect dream, and robotic insect dream
two different kinds of cat person
these funky lil guys
whatever is going on here with the tentacle robot, the teen titans looking motherfucker, the dragon, and the guy in the witch hat (all equally dream of the endless)
a literal stone statue that speaks mostly in egyptian hieroglyphs
and then there's this guy
its okay for others to misunderstand you and your intentions. it is inevitable actually
The relation between nature and human being: Agnieszka Lepka
thinking about Nimona’s face in this scene because she already knows how this plays out, she’s lived this already and while Bal has the hope that she once had in his eyes, she KNOWS what happening before the sword is even raised. She’s NOT SURPRISED she’s NOT SHOCKED she’s only DISAPPOINTED that Ambrosius can turn on the man he loves because she’s already played this out with Gloreth
anyway the actual point of fandom is to inspire each other. reading each other's fics and admiring each other's art and saying wow i love this and i feel something and i want to invoke this in other people, i want to write a sentence that feels like a meteor shower, i want to paint a kiss with such tenderness it makes you ache, i want to create something that someone else somewhere will see it and think oh, i need to do that too, right now. i am embracing being a corny cunt on main to say inspiring each other is one of the things humanity is best at and one of the things fandom is built for and i think that's beautiful
no matter how hard i try i will always be that little girl wondering why everyone is better friends with eachother than her and begging to be loved
i think lonnie and bernard were on the same conspiracy theory forums online
when timbern is out on a date, tim's brain turns off, and he knows no directions. he makes no decisions. bernard is driving. where? tim doesn't know and doesn't care. it's his self-care moment. (his brain only turns back on when babs tells him something might go down)
bernard doesn't smoke, but when he's having a stressful day at the restaurant, he will take a smoke brake
tim used to do bernard's chemistry homework for him, and bernard would do tim's physics homework for him.
bernard will call tim "mr. wayne" to piss him off
they start playing fight and end up making out for hours
tim's fridge is full of polaroids, mostly of bernard and calico, but one of them is very old and all fucked up. It's a picture of tim bernard and darla at louis grieves.
bernard took a picture of that polaroid and uses it as his phone lockscreen
It has been brought to my attention that people might be interested in the research I've done for Magnus stuff (I frequently go on research dives and assume it's of interest to no one but me 😅)
actually the craziest impact animorphs has had on me is that i never really got an urge to eat cinnamon buns from reading them BUT the phrase "the refreshing beverage known as vinegar" has forced its way into my head every other week for years to try and convince me it would be a good idea to chug a whole glass of it
Soren tries to fall off of the Storm Spire. Which is where Viren died the first time.
Something about how Viren met his doom there because he was so focused on gaining power. He was perpetuating the cycle of violence. He was using people as his pawns, manipulating them, and being manipulated and used as a pawn in return.
On the opposite side of that, Soren broke free. He broke free from his father’s manipulation. He broke from the cycle of violence and abuse. He helps others and lets them help him.
(The rest is under the cut because this got out of hand)
Rayla literally shoves Viren off of the mountain. But she gets rescued because she broke from the cycle.
Viren falls. There’s nobody there to catch him.
Soren is chasing after Claudia. Somebody he has always chased after, when given the opportunity. “How easily he’d chosen to chase the dark instead when he’d found his sister still lurking there” and all that. He admits that in the moment on the Storm Spire in season 7 he’s not sure if he’s chasing her in an attempt to harm her or what.
But regardless, Soren is not alone. He has people who care about him. He has Corvus. Somebody he’s not afraid to rely on, lean on, ask for help. He doesn’t have to use people to help him, like Viren did.
Corvus and Soren at the beginning of S7E2:
“If you were in trouble, why wouldn’t you just yell, ‘help me!’”
“That could be anyone asking for help. The whole point is that if you hear ‘rickety snickers,’ you’ll know it’s me. And it’s serious.”
And what does Soren shout later on in that episode? “Rickety snickers.”
And who is the first person to show up to help?
Corvus.
Something about how Soren could so easily have ended up like Viren. Alone, falling off the side of a mountain. But instead, Soren changed over those past years. He grew into a better person. He trusts those around him. He believes someone will have his back, even without turning around to check.
“I got you.” “I know.” Actually sums up Soren’s character growth quite well.
