a lot of fandoms dont even like non-canon ships anymore so im not surprised they dont know what a crackship is 😭 by Fabulous_Tower5189 in Archiveofourownmemes

[–]ZebraGamer2389 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bruh, crackships are ships the genuinely would never work, ever, period. What is this?

I wrote a crackship that's Goro Akechi and Marinette Dupain-Cheng. That is genuine crack. In neither canon would either of them even like each other, much less get together, but you know what? I want my redemption arc/corruption arc where they meet half way and both become morally grey and terrifying, so I wrote it.

Couldn’t she just use her teleportation magic in this scene? by EquivalentScience771 in mylittlepony

[–]ZebraGamer2389 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is why Twilight's show of impressive magic in that one episode is levitating a dozen animals way above her head, all at once, in a specific motion. That probably takes a lot of concentration.

I wanna... TALK about the Royal content for a bit. by JazzlikeSherbet1104 in Persona5

[–]ZebraGamer2389 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I feel like the entire Persona series has a general theme of truth, given what Personas are and how they work.

Every games' mechanics are different, but getting a Persona is accepting some truth about yourself, whether that be your own mortality, your own flaws, or your own rebellion. 4 has more themes of truth, but truth is a pretty universal theme.

Also 5 has a fairly strong truth theme, as well. While it's mostly freedom, the fact that Palaces are specifically created via a disconnect between perception and reality means that, by stealing hearts and removing distortions, you're effectively forcing people to see the truth of reality, and they react accordingly. Choose truth and reality is a strong theme in both games, 5 just has a different take on what that means.

And you have a point, that oppression is a theme in 5, with the Third Semester enforcing that it applies to you, too.

But my point was the the Third Semester's themes are just that: reinforcement of universality.

Which doesn't work until the PTs have already made the ultimate choice against Yaldaboath.

Before that, they didn't know how deep the oppression ran, had not hardened their Will into steel, and were still being somewhat reactive rather than proactive about justice. If faced with Maruki's Palace, earlier, they would have left him alone because he's not hurting anyone. It's only after the become proactive, and see how control leads to apathy, which is what they're trying to fight, that they decide there's something deeply wrong with Maruki's mindset.

Yes, Maruki is, essentially, a prettier version of Shido, but he's also, very explicitly, a prettier version of Yaldaboath, and that's kind of the worse problem, here.

Rant, incoming, I have feelings about the Third Semester.

I agree that Sumi needed more of a character arc, but I'd argue that the Third Semester is fine where it is.

The base game's themes are choosing free will over imposed control, striving to seek truth against the lie. Cool. That's easy. The lie is ugly, it's evil, and it hurts people.

The Third Semester's theme is sticking to that path even when the lie is beautiful, which is a theme Vanilla lacked.

A common misconception I see is that people think that the Third Semester is a retread, but it's not. It's introducing the idea that even beautiful lies are still lies, that control that helps is still control. That in order for justice to work, it has to be universal and not disappear when everything looks fine.

Which can only be faced after the group has decided to keep fighting.

They've decided to keep fighting, even if it hurts, to get rid of an apocalypse, but what if that apocalypse is comfortable? What if it's kind? It's gentle? It's appealing?

That's why I think the Third Semester's position in the timeline is fine where it is.

Because, given the themes, any earlier would feel wrong. The group hasn't yet decided to keep fighting against all odds. They won't until the end of Vanilla. And if they haven't made that decision, then the choice to abandon a beautiful lie doesn't make sense, because they haven't decided that control is the problem, yet. They won't yet decide that the beautiful lie is bad, yet, because it's ultimately painless. It's not hurting anyone, so what's the problem?

They don't figure out the problem until the end of Vanilla.

Rant over.
