my enormous, passionate essay about why Folken is the linchpin to the meaning of Escaflowne. a lodestar for understanding a story told through contrast, parallel, he's integral and instructive. maybe as a fan, you'd be interested in knowing what the story's about!

looking thru pics of what all we've done and been since then and so many important memories and trips shared among friends makes it kind of bittersweet in a way— mostly sweet, i just hope we can have this again 🥺

allen schezar you are the freak of the week

This isn't what allen does in escaflowne tho. as much as he wishes he wasn't, he is truly out there doing his own thang

less love triangles more Other Guy Who Watches The Love Story Of A Lifetime From Inside The Story: ladyhawke. maybe also hellboy, i don't remember? not always appropriate but i think it does something, makes the romance feel more storybook-legendary to have someone bearing witness to it

(calming down. sorry. i've been reading papers + listening to caoineadh and got excited) but i'm so fascinated by this. like we have truly always been doing it different style

one of the most all time sweetest things about Cú Chulainn is one legend describes his hair as "thick and black, and smooth as though a cow had licked it"
folcanta.bsky.social
his lived role as Special Boy is pushed on him pretty much as a punishment, a curse even. the lack of choice he has in committing villainy (tho experiencing the crushing heartbreak of consequence) comes with a simultaneous lack of choice in heroism. interesting little guy. transgender AND rosacea

there's an area of study concerned with him as Abject, a servant in service of not just the king, but Ulster and Ireland as a whole, never accepted into society, partly bc he's tormented by episodes thru which we understand he embodies Both ireland's aspirations And fears. he's also Aware of this

the táin & other tales of cú chulainn are uncomfortable in the same way greek myths are but i must grapple with far greater and more terrible truths, such as "cú chulainn was born of a polyamorous trio, named sétanta before he was to be a dog, was small and beardless and had an actual boyfriend"

ok we didn't end up playing Ace Attorney but anka asked me to watch the special one piece episode "One Piece Fan Letter" and it was sooooo good! omg, it was so beautiful, i can't believe anime can still look good and feel powerful and go fucking hog wild. and i can't believe one piece made it happen
folcanta.bsky.social
but BEFORE that i would ever so often be like "you really haven't played it? like ever?" because it's soooo ankacore (insane cast of guys with big jokes suddenly played seriously as a heart attack.) and indeed last night they were like "i think i'm ready to see my good friend phoenix wright again"

almost time to replay Ace Attorney... somehow we've done this yearly

intuitively i know you can't be everything to everyone but i'd still like to be something for someone. (i say this hypothetically while my bulb is completely burnt out)
