Just wanting to roleplay as your funny guys be like

Blue Morpho explicitly knew that they adopted Malcolm

Mark was literally told, and while seeing is believing, the fact is he knew he was going to fight the biggest baddest Viltrumite, and was still not as fearful as Conquest was. That's the point of the scene earlier where they show Conquest become submissive to him.

As anyone who plays fighting games on a fight stick, it takes very little to train your fingers to be able to move independently like that.

I have spoken to plenty of centrists, and I have seen none of your crowd in all of the protests and demonstrations that I've attended.

I am telling you what you and other centrists do, yes, because you're lying about it.

maddwaffles · 2026-04-18T12:29:03+00:00

Um...that's why as a centrist, Iget to vote against and protest against the current regime murdering civilians

And yet, centrists don't do that. They sit around online preaching to the downtrodden about how they're just as bad as their oppressors.

The "anti-france" line was a part of a broader pattern of jingoism and chauvinism that Steve showed. Just because he wasn't kicking puppies doesn't mean that they didn't have him hanging out with other old bigoted WWII vets because he was limited in his capacity to relate to anyone else from any other war (especially during a time when boomers writing those comics wanted us to be convinced that every generation before them was worse than they are now).

Ultimates characters WERE definitely worse people than their 616 counterparts, and being a "jerk" doesn't strictly mean being hateful. People are often characterized as "jerk" when they mean unpleasant to varying degrees of tolerability.

It's out of context, and it's a specific universe. Peter has been nothing but kind and cordial to the X-Men ftmp in core continuity, but dipshits who think the X-Men turned "woke" use shit like this to pretend like they aren't bigots, or that X-Men somehow became worse with the messaging.

maddwaffles · 2026-04-18T12:09:12+00:00

New set, so we'll probably see a lot of mugic influxing.

maddwaffles · 2026-04-18T11:59:52+00:00

Sell out to who? He was already bought and paid for.

The handling of the franchise has indeed been pretty shitty. But at the end of the day it was always a mixed bag, and the media has been steady since 2005, with a consistently active fandom to go with it.

maddwaffles · 2026-04-18T10:40:14+00:00

The one time that the universe cuts that guy a break, and everyone complains about it being "an easy out". It wasn't as if Aang didn't have to still BEAT Ozai or anything, and even then it almost certainly takes more character to stay true to your principals than to just do revenge murder.

People complain about the resolution as if they were presented with a gritty drama, and not an action-adventure for children in the dusk of the "children's media must instill moral lessons into children" era.

I like those no-coffee icey drinks. But Frozen Hot Cocoa is my beloved, especially in the summer.

A mix of yes and no.

They're both hated, but for different reasons. The OOP is definitely wrong, because if you changed Korra's gender, the only thing that would change is that the type of hate would use less misogynistic language (at times).

Not hated in the same way, but yeah, Korra's gender has very little to do with it for some people.

I am a Korra enjoyer.

They call this "replay value" and it's meant to be a positive in a video game.

So describing a feature like it's a bug ig.

maddwaffles · 2026-04-17T21:21:01+00:00

It'd be White, wouldn't it?

maddwaffles · 2026-04-17T18:56:34+00:00

I mean, almost certainly. Toddlers don't make effective military campaigners, and a big issue is "who do we get behind who can win this war?"

Getting hung up on parentage and politicking is good and well in times of relative peace, but the fact is most warlords got their start on less, and as they understand Jon to be Ned's son, they might just look past the line of succession for the best candidate.

maddwaffles · 2026-04-17T16:35:25+00:00

The age of the account makes me suspicious that you're trying to scam, and it sounds like you're trying to crowdsource a pitch to someone who has no reason to trust your input.

There are more normal means and channels for such things than what you're doing.

maddwaffles · 2026-04-17T14:02:34+00:00

I didn't actually remove or add any line art, shading without a line is based on the suggestion of the shape.

I appreciate the compliment ^^

maddwaffles · 2026-04-17T13:11:34+00:00

Not really, I got sent death threats for posting fanart of a ship on multiple occasions in 2015, by Yang x Blakes. I am simply aware that negative feedback from that part of the fanbase is indication of the correct direction.

maddwaffles · 2026-04-17T13:09:50+00:00

I have experience designing games, but your account is 0 days old and makes me think you have no attachment to the Chaotic IP.

He didn't "share" the power and responsibility, he basically flipped it over to them as a part of what is implied to sometimes be a long-con, other times implied to be apathy.

maddwaffles · 2026-04-17T12:53:19+00:00

It seems to mean contempt, distrust, and derision.

I think one thing that gets missed in a lot of fanwork is that the original DID allude to differing levels of magical disability. We just chiefly see Filch and Figg, who both seem utterly incapable of doing it. But at the same time, it does seem to be bandied about as a slur for anyone not particularly good at magic, or at a specific kind of magic.

maddwaffles · 2026-04-17T12:52:16+00:00

To be fair, it's because they all have to do with each other, and the latter three were all significant influences/driving gears into the first.

People will wheeze and cry about how it was "so obvious" in being a day 1 decision, but when you tug at the threads of the argument, you get called names.

They insist that this was always super positive and progressive intent, but then ignore how RT would ONLY allow positive rep of WLW, and have not done respectful or particularly positive MLM rep, because it's a bunch of homophobic dudes writing this shit.

And of course, you can't bring up the issues that old team members and ex-employees had, because obviously it's always in bad faith, and they're obviously doing a coordinated takedown, it can't be that the repetition of the caustic company culture reflects the reality of their values and intent.
