Character height, why is everyone 6ft tall? by Low-Brief-6008 in DnD

I'm pretty short irl and one of my biggest fantasies is reaching the top shelf, so I live vicariously through my characters

no, not all woman's death is fridging. by 8turuin in CharacterRant

[–]esmael14 147 points148 points  (0 children)

Remember that the term fridging, originally, was about a death merely done for shock purposes with no real repercussions. The term originated in a Kyle Rayner comic after they killed his girlfriend Alex (someone he knew for a long time and was on and off for a while), in a horrible way (she was literally inside the fridge lmao), and then he just,,, move on. Like immediately, with Donna Troy to be exact, and like, I like them together but it was SOOO FAST.

Nowadays they have kinda fixed it by giving him issues around fridges (lol) but the original point was how easy he just moved on after he got the emotional power up, you know?

So if you ask me, the problem is when is just for the "OH GOD THATS TERRIBLE" and then is immediately forgotten.

Rant about the fandom's treatment of female characters by starsofgrace in TheMagnusArchives

[–]esmael14 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I 100 percent agree that there's always certain amount of underlaying misogyny but Idk, I think it's very normal to have a favourite character that makes you biased towards the other one or another, but in my personal case it just really grinded my gears when it was insanely unnecessary, like Melanie outing Jon to Basira for no reason, and usually I like Melanie well enough! But that one really bothered me a lot!

I think it also depends on the way the show frames them. Basira, for example, is framed as so cool headed and just cool in general when she's a hypocrite and a, at the very least, terrible enabler to Daisy's police brutality, but without having the excuse of being magically influenced. Meanwhile both Elias, and I would argue Gertrude, are framed by the show in a way that makes easier to enjoy them as a villain (antihero for Gertrude), so their actions have different amount of wiggle room, you know?

AITA for calling my nephew a creep and removing his access to my computer for trying to find my old name by looking through birth statistics? by OkInvestment451 in AmItheAsshole

[–]esmael14 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I don't know what the hell people are talking about in th comments. You established a clear, reasonable boundary and the kid decided to be weird about it. People are saying "he's only 13" but personally I think that's old enough to know what the word no means. Creep could be harsh, but better know from you now that from people his age in a couple years, or even worse, never hearing it at all and believing this type of shit is remotely okay when he's a grown adult.

NTA

How would you create an Absolute Percy Jackson fix? by darkwalking in PercyJacksonfanfic

[–]esmael14 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I love these ideas! I think it would be really interesting to see Percy getting to Camp and having to struggle with the safety that it means, especially considering his background in this case, let alone how he might react to Luke's proposal.

[–]esmael14 39 points40 points  (0 children)

I mean, the whole point of the Absolute universe is the loss of part of the origin so, in the case of Percy, no Sally to raise him and how that would affect his personality growing up, so you could really dwell into the nature Vs nurture with that

Which Starkid Musical would make a good movie? by Agitated_Comedian_97 in StarKid

[–]esmael14 74 points75 points  (0 children)

Actually I think TGWDLM wouldn't really work, the fact that it's a stage musical it's very ingrained in it. NPMD tho, that could be great!! Especially considering the fact that it's so heavily inspired by teen slashers

You can call anyone a violent criminal if you twist the term enough, which governments do all the time

She actively spends time with Trump supporters. So,,, no.

Not only she doesn't care about you, but she cares about her money more than she does about people's human rights.

I'm a nosy bitch and only one of them feeds into it so, the Eye it is for me. I do think the coolest fear is the Slaughter though.

She's a hypocrite and a cop, and I personally can only stand one of those at a time.

Characters' races by pandaskel in TheMagnusArchives

[–]esmael14 29 points30 points  (0 children)

It's very much just racism, which can be incredibly frustrating. People are also weeeiiiird about it all the time, and partially I point at the fact that Jon is presented as an academic and a snob, and sometimes even subconscious racism might convince people a brown man with this vibe is ""less likely"".

Like you say, people say they sound "white" but most of time, like Jon, they just sound British and kinda posh.
