SPOILERS FOR SEASON OF MOOMIN QUEST 1
...and for the original ninny's story from the books & tv-series as well
i knew ninny's story before and have had feelings about it for a long time but seeing its interpretation in sky (especially the part in the house that appears on the left after you complete quest 1) made me cry my heart out cuz like:
ninny is an abuse survivor. it's stated in a family-friendly way but it's completely true. she has trauma. and the response to that trauma was her turning invisible. silent. almost non-existent. and this is exactly what avpd feels like: you make yourself as small and insignificant as possible, you hide, you become imperceptible because being perceived means p a i n.
The whole world needs to see this!
In honor of Pride next month, can we all try to get #fuck disney trending? They have fucked over LGBTQ creators far too many times for us to give them any credit for queer representation. Take The Owl House, for instance. It's the best example of queer rep I've seen yet. The main character is bi and has a lesbian love interest, and they have a whole romance. There's gay couple after gay couple. There's a non-binary character whose pronouns are respected by everyone. An aroace character. The whole thing is normalized. And you know what disney did? They tried to shut it down halfway through the second season. Dana Terrace and the crew had to fight way too hard to finish season two, and even then, disney wouldn't allow a full third season. We're lucky we get the shortened season 3. Disney has disrespected and fucked over Dana and the crew, and now, they're going to turn right around and parade how this show means they're allies to the LGBTQ+ community and how "There's room for everyone under the rainbow!" It's an insult. So, in honor of Pride Month, don't support disney. Unsubcribe from whatever subscriptions you may have. Pirate as many of their things as you can. Don't buy their official merchandise, buy from small creators on Etsy. And whenever you make a post even slightly relating to disney, add the tag #fuck disney. Or #fuck the mouse, #fuck disney execs, #fuck Bob Chapek. And not just on tumblr- do it on any and every site you can. Twitter, tik tok, Instagram, Facebook, snapchat, everywhere. Share the tag and the reasoning with your friends, family, whatever. Spread the word. Happy early Pride.
Man I knew this was gonna happen when I heard we'd face Canada in quarters :'(
Was listening to the first live-action Monster High movie songs again and I can't believe that it took me this long to realise that the Mr. Hyde they talk about throughout the movie is a reference to the book Doctor Jekyll and Mister Hyde.
And bOtH titular cHaRactErs are mentioned in the song True Monster Heart
It's RIGHT THERE!!!! I feel so dumb :')
(finally found this again yay!!)
To add on: I had a thought a while back after seeing this post for the first time, that the world where Maria survives could be the New Yoke one? And perhaps Dr. Done-it could be Gerald.
I don't know my Sonic lore too well yet as I'm pretty new to this fandom but maybe Gerald figured out a way to cure Maria at the cost of Shadow? GUN could've been pissed about loosing the ultimate lifeform and had the project shut down. Or not at the cost of Shadow, but that GUN simply wouldn't like how Shadow was used for medicine and healing instead of training to be a weapon and still send that squad to get Gerald & Shadow. However instead of Maria getting shot it would be Shadow? He could maybe be weakened and vulnerable somehow as a result of finding the cure for Maria and his immortality and healing aren't working because of it and dies. However I'm not so sure what could lead to Gerald becoming evil, but one way or another it happens and Maria (going by the vibe I've gotten from the movie and what I've seen of the project shadow lore) would be opposed to him. She could be aiding the rebellion in New Yoke, working from the shadows to bring the Chaos Council down. She'd most definitely be aged up but by how much, I'm not sure. With this I personally see seasons 1 & 2 being largely the same outside of Rebel & Knuck mentioning an unknown helper (maybe they call her Shadow and Sonic thinks it's a version of Shadow and doesn't realise it untill season 3?).
Season 3 would then need a rewrite to include more of Shadow and explore the Maria & Shadow dynamic, especially with the versions of them who've lost the other. During episodes 3x1 and 3x2, Shadow could remove the inhibitor rings to get a power boost, get out of Grim and start figuring out where Sonic is. Meanwhile in New Yoke, Maria could reveal herself and help get the citizens safely to the Chaos Council base (maybe appealing to Gerald to let them in?). Shadow could then appear and cue angst!
Not sure how to continue it from there so someone much more talented and knowledgeable of the lore and characters can take it from there :').

Virgil still couldn't understand, how Roman had managed to drag him into a basketball game. For the first twenty or so minutes he had been denying that he was enjoying the time spent watching the game, but after the first few points he stopped pretending. "Hey V!" Romans suddenly said and the anxious side looked up at him. Roman wasn't looking back at him, instead at a large screen, his face getting redder every passing second. Virgil followed his gaze to see the kiss cam's screen. They both where on it. Next to him, Roman buried his face in his hands and Virgil himself started agressivly making a no gesture. He heard loud booing around him and he and Roman where out of the screen. For now.
Throughout the game, he and Roman kept getting into the kiss camera and nearing the middle point of the game, Virgil was getting fed up with it. "I swear if the kiss cam comes back to us for like the billionth time, I'm gonna scream." The emo grumbled in annoyence. Roman just laughed slightly at Virgil and let his eyes trail back to the game. "OH FOR CHRIST'S SAKE!!!!" Virgil screamed next to him. Roman barely had time to register what happened when he suddenly felt someone grab the collar of his shirt and be pulled into a kiss. He felt like fireworks were exploding inside him and his face felt like it was on fire. Oh how he loved the feeling of Virgil's lips on his. It felt like their lips had been made for eachother, that good and perfect the kiss felt. Too soon Virgil pulled away and Roman was slapped back to reality from the seventh heaven to a cheering crowd. Virgil turned back to the game and the creative side's mind wondered back to the heavenly moment. To how soft Virgil's lips had felt and that feeling inside his stomach. The kiss felt like a drug to him, making him high and making him want more. Oh how much he wanted to kiss Virgil again.
Roman didn't know how long he had been in that daydream, but when he finally did snap out of it the game was nearing it's end. "I-I wonder why the camera kept coming back to us..." Virgil looked up at him, shrugged and turned back to the game.
About thirty-or-so minutes before that Patton had slipped the camera man a hundred dollars. "Thank you, my good sir." And with that he skipped away to Logan.
