![[Context]: A promotional image for the DC Studios 'Lanterns' series available on the HBO Max streaming service.
[Description]: The background is a flat, worn, dirty, and muted green texture. On the left half of the image is the Green Lantern ring. A large inky dark green ring which seems to have the texture of a kind of carved obsidian. The band is plain, but worn. The centrestone is circle of the same dark green obsidian-looking material with ten concentric circles carved into the otherwise flat head. It is bezel set in what looks like like a matte gold. It has flat rectangular side stones, but rather than being on the shoulders of the ring, they are bezel set off the front and back of the centrestone, forming the top and bottom of the Green Lantern symbol as the head of the ring. Standing in the center of the ring, on the the sizing area, are the silhouettes of Green Lantern Hal Jordan (portrayed by Kyle Chander) and Green Lantern John Stewart (portrayed by Aaron Pierre). On the right half of the image are the tag line, studio logo, series logo, the estimated release month, and the logo for HBO Max.

[Description]: A large stone archway, covered in vines, and clearly ruined over time. A small stone pathway leads up to the altar steps. Grass peeks through the small paces between the stone bricks in the path. A stream runs beside the altar and behind it. Across the water is a much thicker group of trees, and rocks. A single tree grows out of an elevated patch of dirt to the right of the altar. Two short stone obelisks stand on either side of the path. Three small islands can be seen in the stream's larger area, behind the altar. Hop, the rival character, stands in the middle of the altar, and the player character stands in the middle of the path staring at him. A sunbeam shines through the treetops to the altar where Hop stands.

[Description]: Young Link stands facing a girl in Kokiri Forest as she leans in smiling and staring at him. His right hand is placed on his hip as the other hand rests at his side. Due to the perspective, it seems as though Link's hips are leaning to one side. A pose associated with low patience and sass. It gives the impression that Link is upset by this girl.

[Body]:
Panel 1- The former emperor of earth, archenemy of the Fantastic Four, and monarch of Latveria, Dr. Victor von Doom, stands in the workshop of Reed Richards, Mr. Fantastic, as Reed tinkers with a device. "You should know that Latveria without you is--" Reed is cut off by Victor. "Tell me: Are you enjoying it, the fruits of your labor?" Victor asks, casually handing Reed a component for the device.
Panel 2- Reed turns his head slightly and pauses in thought. "..." "...I will say this."
Panel 3- Reed rests his gloved hand on the workbench beside a mess of various parts, and devices. "There was, perhaps, never another man more gifted-- and better suited to be a great and benevolent leader, if he chose to be-- than Victor von Doom."
Panel 4- Reed turns his head to look at Victor directly. His expression is resolute, and stern, but not hateful. "But instead of helping people, you helped yourself. You made fascism appealing, even attractive, you sole it to good people as a reasonable option-- and it destroyed all it touched." "Including you, Victor."
Panel 4- Reed lowers his head, no longer looking at Victor as he continues. "You sacrificed your own citizens to prop up a hollow promise of peace and prosperity, and when you were revealed, you demanded still more sacrifice, more suffering, just to keep yourself in power." "And you have left our world a far worse place than you found it."](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:g3camwfsgbi5xcm4t4ijwgwx/bafkreihs2cm5qcj2kjppzbuukg6acc7tvfdno6dhkkop4de3l22jn3uyla)

[Description]:
Doctor Stephen Strange, Master of the Mystic Arts, is speaking with Norrin Radd, The Silver Surfer. Stephen stands with his back to the viewer, wearing his large, high-collared, red cape with gold accents. The cape is large enough that this is the only part of him we see from this position. The Silver Surfer lays on a green sofa with a hand to his own forehead. Rubble is strewn about the ground, and Norrin's iconic silver surfboard is lodged in the ground to the far left. Wong, the mystical guardian, stands behind the sofa looking towards Norrin.

[Stephen]: "Such a force in the hands of a madman."
[Stephen]: "A nihilist."

![[Context]: The cover of "Batman/ Green Arrow/ The Question: Arcadia" Issue number 1.
Batman (Bruce Wayne) looms large in profile in black with a yellow and black bat-emblem on his chest turned slightly towards the viewer, enough to see what it is. Centered in the image is the profile of The Question (Vic Sage) with his signature lack-of-face, trench-coat, and trilby hat. Smoke in the shape of a question mark surround him. The Green Arrow readies an arrow in the bottom-right corner while wearing what seems to be jeans and a green hooded jacket with a sharp forward-pointing edge which shadows his face.
Panels of environments fill the gaps between the characters and the edges of the page. Palm trees on fire at the top of the page, a snowy mountain in a vertical sliver, and at the bottom is a silhouette of a city skyline with a helicopter.

![[Context]: An overview of the story for the fake Super Princess Peach Long Night game.
[Text]: Super Princess Peach: Long Night
A sequel to Super Princess Peach where the main villain is Birdo who is cursed by the two magicians who turned Perry into an umbrella.
Birdo went to them because she wanted to be seen as an elegant lady who can control herself "Like Princess Peach" so they agreed to help and warped her into a weird imitation. Birdo kidnaps Luigi to be her boyfriend and her emotions come out as destructive magical powers.
Peach is trying to help turn Perry back into a boy with Toadsworth when she finds out that Luigi has been taken.
After each boss Perry tells a story about his past with the old man, just like the first game, and that makes him Happy, Angry, Sad, or Calm. Peach will show the same emotion and comfort him by the campfire.
At the end, we defeat Birdo and she cries about not being able to stop feeling her emotions, but then Perry and Peach tell her it's okay to feel them. Let yourself cry, or get angry. Don't hold it all in.
Birdo starts sobbing, and then Perry, Peach, and Birdo Cry together, and Luigi runs up and cries too.
This gets away from the idea that it's a PMS metaphor or sexist. It's about allowing yourself to express what's inside you. If you're trans, cis, a parasol, or a plumber, it's okay to let yourself feel what you feel. Perry, now opening up fully (like an umbrella), finally gets turned back into a boy! Perry the Poplin! ♡ The night turns to day as a symbol of change and moving on for all of the characters. The shadowy magicians are still around for a potential third game, but Perry can at least live a normal life going forward if he wants.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:g3camwfsgbi5xcm4t4ijwgwx/bafkreihdbg66lkltggn3iwn5fjx5h6hfvmz6kz5l4mqsbnxkeippndfcb4)
