HEY GUESS WHO FINISHED HER LATEST TESTAMENT TO HER LACK OF SELF CONTROL THATS RIGHT ME I DID.
ive been sucked into Critical Role thanks to @tactfulgrimalkin who I’m also giving some credit for helping me out w/ some of the writing for this. It’s my interpretation/imagining of how Nott and Caleb’s first meeting went down based on what we know about that event. There’s 16 pages. Because I have no self control.
Ooooh. This is a tough one, but I think it’s got to come down to Starscream. He’s just always amazing to watch, in any continuity – clever and troublesome and vicious and complicated, and sometimes loving, but often in screwed-up ways. Starscream was one of my first faves in Transformers and one of my most enduring. (And I love love LOVE his charm and his scheming in IDW.)
11. Out of all the movies (including g1 and Predacons Rising), which is your favorite? Why?
The Transformers: The Movie! It’s terrible and I love it. It’s not even a movie. It’s like three completely unrelated G1 episodes in a trenchcoat. It’s like the dreams you have after eating too much cheese. But it has sweeping, epic moments, every inch of it is quotable, I will always adore Rodimus, and I’m never bored watching it. (Plus. I mean. The competition is the Bayverse films and Predacons Rising, and I know which of all of those I’d rather rewatch.)
17. Favorite version of Starscream?
This may be even tougher than “favourite Decepticon”. 😀 I’m going to say IDW, because he’s just fascinating – seductive and Machiavellian and funny and wildly ambitious and maybe, sometimes, even a little bit conflicted… but that’s not going to stop him from rocking up two seconds later to unveil some new master plan for getting everyone to worship him. Plus, the way he’s drawn in some of those comics is jaw-droppingly beautiful, I mean, come on. 🙂
What she means: I understand the Chronicles of Narnia was at its heart a fairytale with theological analogies for children. But why did Lewis never address how they had to adapted to life on Earth again. Why does no one talk about how the Pevensies had to grow up with a kingdom of responsibilities on their shoulders, only to return to Earth and be children. Take Lucy, she was youngest and perhaps she adapted more quickly-but she had the memories and mind of a grown woman in an adolescent body. Edmund literally found himself in Narnia, he went from a selfish boy to mature and experienced man. He found a purpose and identity through his experiences to come back as just Edmund, Peter’s younger brother. Did people wonder why the sullen, sour boy came back, carrying himself like a wisened king? Did his mother wonder why he and Peter suddenly got along so well, why they spent so much time together now? And Susan, the girl of logistics and reason came back with a difference in her. She learned how to be a diplomat and ambassador, Susan the Gentle had to live to endure not-so-gentle circumstances. She had the respect she wanted, only to be just another teen girl. And Peter, he entered the manhood and maturity he so wanted. He earned the responsibility and stripes he yearned for. He learned to command armies and conduct the menial tasks demanded of a king to rule a nation. But he came back, appearing to be just anther glory-hungry boy. Not to mention the PTSD they must have struggled with. Especially Edmund. How often did he wake up in a sweat, screaming a sibling or comrade’s name? His parents believe it’s the war, but it’s an entirely different one he has nightmares about. How often did he have trouble with flashbacks and mood swings? And how many times did he and Peter sit over a newspaper or near the radio listening to reports on the troops. How often did they pour over lost battles and debate better strategies. Did their parents ever wonder why they seemed to understand flight war so well? How long was it before they stopped discussing these things in front of people? Why does no one talk about this???
Why am i fucking crying
Why does no one talk about how the Pevensies had to grow up with a

and be children
It’s not addressed because it’s understood. It was the shared experience of the generation. You are describing coming home from World War One, battle wearied and aged beyond belief, but walking around in the body of a youth. C S Lewis went to the front line of the Somme on his nineteenth birthday and went back to complete uni in 1918 after demob.
Not seen it with this very very pertinent addition before
1) BLESS Priscilla Tramontano’s art, I mean GODDAMN.
2) What I love about this most apart from how gorgeous Jazz looks is that he breaks out of those chains with no effort about a page later, which means that a) he’s totally down with being tied up, just saying and b) Spike Witwicky, the guy who made a huge deal back in the Ongoing about how he’d learned to kill a Cybertronian with! common! household! items!, actually has no idea how to hurt or even restrain a Cybertronian who doesn’t want to be restrained. I enjoy the fact that Optimus Prime is like 30% by volume just everyone pointing out what a moron Spike is.
