What's the fun in playing it safe?
Some one probably made this but anw my rendition happy 3rd of Inceptiversary!!!!
NOTE: This is not the giant Arthur meta I’ve been talking about. That’s still in the works. But an anon requested that I discuss the caregiver aspect of Arthur’s characterisation a little more (for greater context, see this gif set), so I shall.

Inception is an interesting fandom to be in. At its heart, it’s a fandom of possibility. The PASIV creates endless opportunities for AUs. With the exception of Cobb, no character has an explicitly outlined origin story, so fans get to run amok with head canons (and even Cobb doesn’t have that much back story). And the broad characterisations, with their heavy reliance on archetypes, give us a myriad of character interpretations.
But when it comes to Arthur (Arthur, Arthur, Arthur, my love), these interpretations tend to… uh… cluster. ‘Cold’, ‘impassive’, ‘severe’ and ‘condescending’ are descriptors that come to mind. And, to be fair, Arthur certainly exhibits some of these traits – severity, in particular. But it could be argued – and I have argued – that these aren’t his prevailing traits. However, this meta is not about that. This bit of meta is all about Arthur in the context of Jung’s Caregiver archetype.

The poetic cinema of Kotetsu’s powers timing going down and that actually saving his life.
I’m thinking about this again. How cour 2 is the narrative but a sequel, going into familiar beats and going ‘haha you know what happens, you watched season one you can probably predict how this is gonna go’ and then.
And then actually no, the thing that made Kotetsu ‘not enough’ as a hero, the thing everybody thought is going to be his downfall, him not having the hundered power for five minutes, is actually what saves his life?? (AND BUNNY’S???)
It’s really something something about failure not defining you but also sometimes, sometimes it’s good that your power doesn’t last as much as it used to. That thing you thought might be your downfall actually saving your and your partners life at the last minute.
Now that college students no longer have access to their libraries in the same way we used to and have to do most of our learning at home it would be just terrible if we all knew about https://1lib.eu/ a website which has books on basically every topic ever available for free including college textbooks. Imagine if people were researching their thesis without paying for it.
DO NOT USE THIS SITE AND DEFINITELY DO NOT NOT TELL YOUR FRIENDS ABOUT THIS SITE, THEY MIGHT START DOING THESIS RESEARCH FOR FREE OR JUST START READING BOOKS THEY FOUND ON THERE FOR FUN BECAUSE THEY THOUGHT THEY WERE INTERESTING. This would be terrible :( :(
Reblog to spread the word so that everyone knows to avoid this site!
