counterpoint: there is flavor in imagining under that exterior he is also a teenage drinking red bull working the late shift at 7/11. new depths of trimax ww to discover

yea i would go even further and identify it as the aesthetic fallout of technofascism. not communal -> scientific so much as communal -> reserved for the wealthy and powerful to engage in alone. robbed of culture as all wealth hoarding is yk. that marx quote about the dance halls and the taverns

and related to this is the reduction of nightow’s wide range of how humans can look vs whatever the fuck this is. this is relevant to theme and plot and to the milly redesign convo actually. homogenous character design as a prescriptive force

thinking abt nostramo + bladerunner + bebop and the sense of humanity filling up technological spaces with their human-ness vs humans conforming to easily regulated, non-human-centric standards. it’s a generic shift but also i think it’s important to trimax thematically yk? that rem wears jeans?

thinking abt how trimax knives’ jumpsuit and the ships’ paneling share visual language, but also the change of rem and ship humans’ casual, individual wear to uniforms. the sense of combined culture vs erosion of it toward conformity. notable (and not apolitical) shifted standard of scifi aesthetics

would love to sit down and think more on how nightow’s aesthetics of space travel in trimax reflect his vision/priorities for it vs generic standards for 95 v now

the sheer commitment orange has to wolfwood's ankles is so empowering, validating, reassuring, honest, genuine, true, grounding, motivational, an anchor, a most beloved star, a light in dark places when all other lights go out

my final thoughts on the matter #vw #trigaze

drawing of tristamp wolfwood wearing his gray shirt, very covered in dark stains. he steals eriks' white shirt to get even with the crime of not having an outfit change and being covered in cum.

it's gonna suck if they're gonna pull a veilguard and after development hell hand the reigns to a gender-marginalized director for the first time to wrap everything up so when it falls flat they can use it as an excuse to never put anyone but a cis man in power again

another file in the nuance sandpapered off drawer: what if knives was still wrong but his followers had legitimately based reasons to follow him. what then. also bring back stupid cis boy wolfwood and his queer coworkers i miss their weird asses acting like they're in a kitchen back of house

sorry keep remembering things abt stamp. if u make ur canon trans character a child u can dismiss her and make her petulant and not to be taken seriously :) certainly not a fully agent threat steering the best action sequence of the series or significant moral counterpoint to vash's view of humanity
