iiinova — where your digital self keeps evolving

Anyways I'm tired now so that's the extent of my ramble. I will be cheering for Frandi on the sidelines of course, I will enjoy watching everything unfold whether or not they're canon. Their dynamic to me is far beyond easily definable bounds anyway, so anything is a win lmaooo

010

Now I can't make any confident claims outside of canon info, I will always doubt myself, but seeing 3 varying human emotions towards what really is their scraps of childhood and being met with a stiff stance and no reciprocation in return is such an interesting image. Gwen doesn't feel, not really.

Gwen is a maternal figure to Olivia, she was supposed to forever be treated as such. Battered to hell and back, Olivia doesn't care. Gwen is the last remaining essence of her mother, and Olivia may forever be that child that was handed the whole world. Grown or not, that was everything she knew.

Enough about the dynamics we know though. Olivia is an intriguing addition to the whole picture. She is not embraced, but she is there. Distantly, holding on to whatever she can, whatever she's allowed to, while being curled up by Gwen's knees.

We could already tell from the pilot/ep 1 that Frankie has a better view on Guinevere than Andi, so this one isn't actually any news, but it's always fun to dig into an artwork like that.

Yes she is still hugging Gwen, Andi seems to be shielding Gwen (which is even more interesting when Frankie was portrayed as the shield and Andi as the sword), but ultimately she is in this for Frankie, while Frank herself is wrapped around Gwen.

Can I dig at Dana's promo art a bit? Hi yeah I'm probably gonna be insane about this show, anyways– Seems very interesting to me that Andi is the only one who is like... Passively there in Gwen's vicinity. She doesn't read as vying for comfort from Gwen. Rather, she is reaching out to Frankie.

According to Discord, I am a teen. I have been put in the 13-17 rating. I am not fighting it, I don't give a shit about "validating" my age when it all just gets funneled into genAI. I just find it a bit funny (though it's definitely outrageous) that I got pinned as a teen 3 days before my 21st.

updating everything preemptively (and remembered ao3 this time), but sunday. another year... yaaaay.

001

Minecraft or not, this is such a great story... I think I need to throw Pan!Apo out a window though...

000

Sausage has been depressed for a long time. Cleo at least saw it, his own "friends" and allies didn't. Cleo won't argue with him, he's already made up his mind. She can talk him down, but he would still be their pawn, he will still cause more death alongside them. Nikos was just the start.

100

It is not their fault for pushing against his morals, it's never any of their faults. They just cannot take the blame for their teammate for throwing himself off a cliff, it has to be their enemies. It has to be Cleo's fault. It was the drugs, it was the alcohol, it was anything besides them.

100

tw suicide Also Sausage committed to the same cycle over and over and over again to the point that Cleo has given up on him.... He has given up on himself long before, but his last string was finally cut. This man is ready to kill himself, and his team isn't seeing it.

Ah. Losing Drift right after Nikos is fuckin brutal... If she doesn't tear the whole pantheon of Gods down with her own bare hands, it will be the biggest act of mercy. However, mercy is not in the cards these days, especially not for Zeus. He dug his own grave, Cleo will make sure he stays in it.

100

also pan!cleo satyr name reveal did happen i think but i am also a touch too deliriously ill to retain more info...

using that promise to grit her teeth and charge through the rest of this hell, because promise or not, she is going to save the mortals from the grasp of the gods. if it weren't for them, nikos wouldn't be gone. but if it weren't for them... cleo and nikos would've never met in either of their lives

Bytez 🍉🎗🚦💠 @snakebytez.bsky.social · 16/09/2026

im not crying im just ill im not crying im just ill– ohhh this episode certainly didn't help the headaches. cleo losing a partner after finally finding that spark, that connection, something she never trusted herself to hold ever again.... going to drift and having her promise to wait in the styx.

100

cleo humanizing nikos when everyone else just saw a boisterous madman showing off his gifts from zeus... it's going to be hard to face what's coming anyway. nikos is so much more than that jovial front, and we've got to see that these past weeks. loss is just a regular part of a death game though...

000

i'm saving ep 6 for after work, because then i have a few days off and can probably cry all i want over it (at least from what i hear). already have spoilers for not being in the fandom grounds, but oh well. i know what's coming, but it probably won't make it easier.

100

i love love love complex characters and cleo plays them so very well. there is no exact good or evil, everything has a reason with her. it's hard to be a villain when they show humanity so often, but it's easy to be cruel all the same. it's all defensive, in a way, and that makes it so real.

100

identity through trauma is something not often explored. it's a bit refreshing to see someone delve into it, minecraft rp or not. it's a reclamation of one's own autonomy, even if it makes you the single one out. pan!cleo the woman you are.....

100

i like how blatant everything is though. while it's technically not stated outright, it's hard to deny what's happening anyway. cleo's flirting and being so open, it's a nice evolution from how she started out. also i'm starting to get why pan!cleo uses exclusively she/her and that's alright.

idk what's going on in pantheon smp currently, I am sick and not registering everything right now, but good lord cleo... I still gotta watch ep 6, I was catching up, but the champion's polycule is real?? "quick question, how do you feel about sharing?" was wild on top of everything else.

100

Oh god there's automatic thread counts now... People can see the length of my absurdity at a glance rather than scrolling through it..... Takes away all the fun smh... (Genuinely cool built in feature though)

I don't care how many articles you push at me for this weird trend I've only ever seen in said article titles shoved in my face, I am not ever ordering a fast food fish sandwich, nor am I ordering it "French Style" or "Norwegian Style".

000

Anyways. Without repeating my obvious hatred of the corporations' treatment on animation in general, good movie, would recommend if you want an easy laugh. It's stupid and goofy and very real at certain points and that's what the whole toons in a human world thing is all about, at least to me.

000

To think Warner is willing to drop their whole animation department at a moment's notice to let this merger happen.... Makes the message of the mistreatment of toons in-universe hit a bit more. Seen as disposable within the movie *and* by the execs that fund it.

100

Three years. Three years of unknown status. For this? C'mon... You could've even just released it digitally if you *really* wanted to avoid the cinemas, but again. For this? It's a perfect capsule of Wile E Coyote nostalgia for that sorta crowd, there was certainly money to be made.

100

Seen Coyote VS ACME today, what a nice movie. Can't believe Warner wanted to scrap it. It's not like, mindblowingly amazing or anything, but it was very enjoyable. It's all really what you expect from our afternoon toons, after all.

100

Look. I can only do so much compared to what I really wanna do. And the only way to expand that is to do it. And I wish that wasn't the block I had to face either, because if I do it and I hate it, well? There all that idea goes...

000

And the only way to make it is to have enough confidence to execute it. And to have enough confidence to execute it....?? I haven't thought that far ahead, I've never gotten there before...... But it's like thumbnailing for animation! And I can do that. Somewhat.

100

I think a story with fluid themes is more like life than a story that MUST abide by any worldly developments that are supposed to define the whole thing. You can have both, obviously, but I think people should be more open to a fluid story. The only way to find out is to make it....

I wanna make a comic series of my post-canon tadc world, but I give up on comics immediately. I wanna write it all but at the same time I don't want to write so much that everything prior gets made concrete. I want things to be open to be fluid in its telling, because everything is ever changing.

There is no fucking winning and they wonder why the hell I don't wanna be a manager. "But the money's good" If you're in it for just the money, you're not a good manager, just saying. I don't wanna be responsible for all that shit.

000

Bytez 🍉🎗🚦💠 @snakebytez.bsky.social · 28/08/2026

"And you can stay longer if they need you" Yeah they'll probably need me because you keep taking all the night crew and screwing them over but at the same time I can't stay or else it screws over the night crew on the days I'm scheduled to close because we're not allowed to get overtime.

100

Bytez 🍉🎗🚦💠 @snakebytez.bsky.social · 28/08/2026

Ohhh fuck offffff they didn't even cut me entirely today. I am going to kill someone there I swear to god, and I'm not sure if it's going to be myself or someone else. I hate this fuckin place so much.

100

Bytez 🍉🎗🚦💠 @snakebytez.bsky.social · 27/08/2026

Already the afternoon, someone kill me. this sucks so bad actually. enjoy my day off, yeah.... i already lost half the fuckin day. how long til i genuinely collapse on their floor, guess we'll find out if they really didn't actually cut my hours tomorrow

000

Bytez 🍉🎗🚦💠 @snakebytez.bsky.social · 26/08/2026

Gonna have a terrible time tonight, I just know it, so I just gotta prepare for the worst possible outcome. Gonna wanna walk out so many times, I just know it. It's okay though, I have permission to yell, so people will see a whole other side of me tonight. They don't know what they unleashed...

000

Bytez 🍉🎗🚦💠 @snakebytez.bsky.social · 26/08/2026

They hear "we need more help on the weekends" and still think they can get away with moving me around. No, it's not that. We need more people at nights and less at breakfast time. Why the fuck do you have 4 managers on at the slowest time? That's what's eating at labor costs. Common sense?? Nahh....

100

Bytez 🍉🎗🚦💠 @snakebytez.bsky.social · 26/08/2026

I'm only midway through the week. God this is gonna fuckin suck. Probably clocking out tonight with around 22 hours this week already assuming I don't get held past my time. Chances are, I might anyway. Now either I get a heavy check (improbable), or they screwed over the weekend crew (definitely)

Jax is still cynical and thinks she doesn't deserve a hand her way. She is actively destroying any path back from abstraction, because she put herself there so that's what she gets. Anyways. I've been thinking about where to go forward with Feedback Loop, if it wasn't obvious........

020

I think a post-abstraction Jax is very reserved. She doesn't talk with the others unless they initiate. Yes, all for "Jax continues to be an ass anyway, but lightheartedly" but that doesn't happen instantly. To get comfortable again in the Circus is a long road to tread, especially after crisis.

Jax's whole issue was opening up. Coming back from abstraction wouldn't change that, I don't think. It takes a LONG time before she's comfortable. Even if she comes out, even if she transitions, she would still take a long time to actively form any connections again.

It's not that I dislike Funnybunny, I like the weird dynamic they got going on obviously. However, I dislike fanon Funnybunny, if that makes sense. A dynamic is not one size fits all, you can't write someone the same way you'd write another.
