Makarov In The Reboot Of Mw3 Gives Me The Vibes Of A Teenage Boy Who Learnt How To Swear In Russian From

makarov in the reboot of mw3 gives me the vibes of a teenage boy who learnt how to swear in russian from google translate and now thinks he's the edgiest, scariest guy in the whole school but actually a single mild gust of wind could knock that ego 6ft into the ground

This man is just not scary Makarov from original games looks funny too how the fuck am I supposed to take these dudes seriously

Pretty much yeah

If you read deadly fortune (the dmc 4 novels, i found it online but the translation was a little rough. Still got the point across) it gives a better insight into Dante's feelings toward Nero throughout the game.

IIRC, Dante knew Nero was related to him even before it was confirmed through the Yamato. He could sense it, like his spidey senses were tingling or something. That sense reminded him a lot of Vergil, and he kinda assumed from there - obviously Nero isnt his kid, so he has to be somebody's kid, and that somebody was very clearly somebody like Dante himself. Somebody like Vergil, perhaps? Although it was still just a theory since he meets Nero after he's gotten Vergil killed (twice).

Either way, he did know Nero was related to him in some way or another.

Thats going off memory tho i havent read deadly fortune in a while.

I bet the second Dante sees Nero, his attitude and also what Nero really stands for in DMC4, he IMMEDIATELY puts 2 and 2 together, figures out whose son Nero is, and, like, the entire reason Dante trolls Nero and fucks around so much but also sneakingly mentors him and trusts him to figure the Order out on his own in a way only uncle can is because Dante just knows, even before Yamato pretty much confirms it for him. But he also can't help himself trolling Nero and getting into fights because he just sees Vergil parts in him

eva is a monsterfucker, no i will not elaborate

Cross in bottle of rakija a must have in a Serbian household the egg dyeing is going well

So I just saw a post by a random personal blog that said “don’t follow me if we never even had a conversation before” and?????? Not to be rude but literally what the fuck??????????

I’ve had people (non-pornbots) try to strike conversation out of nowhere in my DMs recently, and now I’m wondering if they were doing that because they wanted to follow me and thought they needed to interact first. I feel compelled to say, just in case, that it’s totally okay to follow this blog (or my side blog, for that matter) even if we’ve never talked before.

Also, I’m legit confused. Is this how follow culture works right now? It was worded like it’s common sense but is that really a thing?

been thinking about Trish a lot lately, and her connection to Eva

(Big ranty thing with some analysis into her character + my own headcanons about trish below)

She was created to be a carbon copy of Eva, right down to the most unimportant details. So much so that Dante recognized her immediately he didnt even do a double-take, as soon as those glasses were off he saw Eva standing infront of him instead of Trish. (I mean, blonde haired+blue eyed women arent uncommon and its not like Dante has never been into a public space before. Hes probably seen similar women to Eva many times throughout his life, but only Trish was so perfectly like Eva that he couldnt see anything else but his mother in her that first moment they met.)

But thats just physical features. It'd be too easy, too simple for Mundus to just create a look-alike to Eva. And i dont think that alone would've been enough to trick Dante either, Dante isnt an idiot no matter how dumb he acts sometimes. So, how deep into this "recreate Eva" thing did Mundus actually go?

Does Trish experience the same motherly instincts Eva had toward Dante (and Vergil)? Does she feel the need to protect them and cherish them like Eva did? Does she get urges to hold them, kiss and hug them and give them praise as Eva once did in their childhood? If so, does she ignore these feelings, pushing them down untill they're buried so deep within her mind that she's forgotten them entirely, or does she let them be and let them pass on their own, wether she acts on them or not. She's quite sassy with Dante in dmc4 and seems quite aloof in dmc5, so maybe thats how she copes with it instead - acting the total opposite to what Eva ever would.

Going even deeper into that, does Trish have any of Eva's memories? Even just vague snippets or imaginings of Eva's life, considering how well Mundus made Trish then that might not be an impossibility. If so, how much would she have the ability to recall? Could she even recall the fire, maybe? If she can, how would she feel about it. Would she grieve? Feel anger, regret, or nothing at all?

And how would she feel about all of this overall? Being a clone of Eva right down to the gritty details even Dante wouldn't know. Trish is so strongly contrasted to Eva in personality, style and tastes that i'd like to imagine she isnt that much of a fan, put simply. She's her own person, she wants to be her own person and she hates the person she represents. She hates how her existence causes pain to somebody she's wired to care so deeply for - sometimes against her will - and she hates seeing him cry or drink himself to death over that dusty old picture thats been sitting on his desk for decades, knowing that she'll only ever make it worse for him in the end, that his grief extends so far into the core of his being that nothing in existence will ever truly fix it.

She's conflicted.

She's Trish. But is she really? Or is that just who she says she is in an effort to push back and ignore the reality of her existence? Nothing more than a fake, a husk of a person who's time was cut short prematurely then taken advantage of by the very being that killed her in the first place.

She's Trish. Not Eva. She can't be Eva, and she never will be Eva. Nothing will change that. Not a dusty old picture, not an old man's delusions, not some dead demon king who breathed life into her form in the first place.

She's Trish. But who even is Trish? Her entire being has always been about Eva. She doesnt know anything else. So she overcompensates with acting sarcastic and sassy, looking hot and sexy and playing with guns and swords because those are things Eva wouldn't ever do herself. Eva. Again, it all comes back to Eva.

She's Trish. Devil hunter and the most 2000s representation of "hot blonde" one could get. Thats who she is. Or at least, that's who she's trying so desperately to be.

Trish needs more love from the developers, her character is so interesting. I have other analysis' of the other characters too if anybody would be interested in that but for now, ill leave you with my take on the iconic blonde from this wonderful series.<3
