taking a break out of my sketching to think if I make my “8000 blacksand aus” fanmix into a “8000 blacksand aus/old old men” fanmix since technically the Old oldmen are the ones behind all those unlimited lil replicas of themself soooo.
I went back through my blog a bit and I used to. Just. Talk blacksand. Without any specific goal in mind or plan of Thing I Must Eventually Write. Just because I had a neat idea that wasn’t quite a full fic and I wanted to share it and pass it around and play with it a bit and I wanted to talk to cool people about cool stuff.
Okay so here is some random chatter but I have been thinking a lot about trying to figure out if there’s any possible ethical way for Cybele-Kozmotis-Sandy to happen, because Kozmotis is Sandy’s superior officer and that’s a big, big no-no.
But it’s also possibly good because it adds something to story arcs before Koz’s ultimate fall? Anyway, mostly fanon Koz doesn’t just say “to hell with it” regarding ethics and so if in this case he did, that’d be interesting and it would have to mean something in the story. Maybe the war is going badly so who cares anymore?
I’ve been puttering around with a piece where I’m writing Koz as not caring that much about his own life/happiness, so that’s part of the triad dynamic—he wants it to be strong so he can be confident that if he died Cybele and Sandy would still be happy. (Koooz why.)
But then there’s the problem that if Cybele’s a diplomat then having a husband who brought home one of his subordinates (who is really great and cute and all but still a subordinate), this probably isn’t helpful for her efforts to urge caution as regards the war. Everyone can overlook it, as long as she doesn’t cause too much trouble, but if not…well, someone like the general is always needed—perhaps not at the front lines, though?
And of course it all leads to tragedy, gosh darn it, all I wanted was golden age threesomes, not a political mess.
I don’t think it gotta be that complicate technically, I mean, the bigger factor here is the whole subordinate aspect, but if we compare it to the times of second world war, thats when the swinger fashion started being a thing to which many people involocrate in the army saw it as a quite okey idea, and we are also seeing the perspective of alien races, which ideals of relationships may vary in any imaginable aspect really (in the end of superman the red son, it was said that threesomes were the new “normal” in society) so when people is more busy seeing if they are gonna make it thrown the whole war deal and most space nations are also busy with it, people should really be kind of a dick to say anything about this relationship between general-diplomatic-subordinate

I have been dwelling a bit in the context of my recent blacksand aus, like the superheores ones in which I actually want it to be mostly comedy since I don’t see either mother nature and pitch as sadistic villains, they are more of “doing this becuase is heck funny” (specially of MN opinion), I think thsi is half fault of all the domestic sitcom avengers stuff I see everwhere at different times
also, I wanna work more on that mortician!sandy and florist!pitch, I imagine sandy being pretty calm at work but getting always nervious with pitch, and just dropping a bunch of weird dead or corpses related jokes and puns and just wanting to be boxed up and put under six feet under ground to escape his eternal shame, pitch eventually SORT OF warm of for his weird and peculiar sense of humor
