terrifying monstrosity: who could possibly love me when I am a terrifying monstrosity me, stretched out on the table in front of them with a rose between my teeth: well
2018 She-Ra made me so happy, I would’ve loved to grow up with this as a kid!! I initially watched for Scorpia (because I’m predictable) but I ended up loving so many more in the cast!!!
I love how Half-Life and Portal took place in the same universe. One is a gritty dystopian future, whilst the other is Wall-E meets Venture Bros.
Like, in Half-Life 2: Episode 2, Eli was so outraged when Kleiner suggested they find Aperture Science technology to defeat the Combine, saying that it would be catastrophic, and I was like “Wow, what kind of terrifying stuff does Aperture Science make?” and then Portal 2 came out a few years later and the place is basically Acme Corporation with mantis men and homicidal robots and I was like “Oh, okay. Yeah Eli was right.”
half-life is about a physicist who apparently took a vow of silence saving the world with a crowbar and a cartoonish arsenal of guns, and who frequently uses an advanced zero point energy field technology to hock toilets and filing cabinets at his enemies, so it’s not that far off in terms of slapstick elements
