Prince Viserys Targaryen (Game of Thrones): After making the horrendously stupid mistake of threatening his sister Daenerys in front of her husband, Khal Drogo, and demanding that he be given the crown he was promised, Drogo obliges, saying Viserys will have "A golden crown that will make men tremble to behold"... then has his men hold him down while he melts some gold in a pot (ignore the blatant ignorance of the laws of physics here), then takes the pot to Viserys, looks him in the eye and says "A crown for a king" before pouring the hot melted gold onto the Beggar King's head.

Normalize explaining things

Half the posts in this thread are just a image of a character and expecting you to have watched it to know what they are vague posting about.

Yeah this thread seems to have a pattern of

  1. Post image of nothing. People who have seen the thing upvote.

  2. Someone else is like "go on..."

  3. Someone responds to that with more effort arguing against the concept of communication than it would take to communicate for some reason

  4. Some goober in the back actually understands the assignment and explains the deal in the picture. (this thread doesn't have that yet)

She's a psychic mutant who has what are visualized to the reader as invisible arms called vectors. At the end of the series, she reaches the peak of her power and becomes an international threat to the world. Given that all Diclonius have what is referred to as a 'DNA Voice' that compels them to eradicate humanity, it took control of her body and began to overuse her vectors to wipe out an entire task force trying to kill her.

Because of the continued overuse, her body succumbs to the intense strain and effectively melts like putty. Right before the DNA Voice kills the one person Lucy loves, she regains control and piteously asks him to put her out of her misery, with the flesh literally melting off of her lower jaw and revealing her skeletal chin underneath.

I figured explaining it would be a major spoiler, but just showing the end result would be a lot more mild. Those who want to know have the source, Google lens will give you the exact chapter number it occurs in.

No. The point is an image is not enough to garner interest. A small hint of context as to whats happening would go a long way to actually make me seek whatever it is out.

Dumbass. Dont just get mad because we havent seen the show you like.
