So, a show with a larger budget than The Acolyte and was pulling similar numbers is getting a budget increase for its second season, yet we’re supposed to believe The Acolyte was canceled due to “high costs”? They really think we’re idiots

The Second Will Cost You - an Oshamir College AU - Chapter 3

Chapters: 3/? Rating: Explicit

"I always feel like an imposter in places like this," Osha mutters, trying to shrink into his side. "I never feel like I belong." "Of course you belong," Qimir says. "I’m here, and you belong with me.” He smiles at her, and she smiles back, biting back the question that's been on the tip of her tongue for months: Yes, but who are you, really? It had taken a lot of sweat, some tears, and a little more blood than she'd expected, but Osha Aniseya has survived the agonizing process of reinvention. She'd set ablaze the carefully planned, meticulously organized life that had been plotted out for her and built something new from the ashes: a new apartment, new major, and a new boyfriend. For a few weeks, in that magical warm haze of late summer, everything is perfect. But as the cold winds of fall and a new school year beckons, Osha starts to realize that when it comes to having someone like Qimir in her life, all of the chaos that they had gone through may have been just the tip of the iceberg.

Going into the tag and seeing people talk about how nice and compassionate Mel is this season, as opposed to last season when she was manipulative and hated Viktor like. You guys can just admit you were wrong about her. You guys can just recognize that she explicitly said she wanted to prevent war and help people and you all were already on another, more tired narrative so you ignored her. You guys can acknowledge how race and gender played into the fandom’s consensus about Mel and Viktor, even after Mel’s VA directly said Mel liked and respected him. You can do it. I believe in you.

God I wish elections in the fucking US wouldn’t affect literally every other country in the world

You want Mel to live because she’s hot. I want Mel to live because she well written and will make season two so much better. We are not the same.

The thing that's interesting to me about oshamir is they're both the best and worst thing that could happen to each other.

Like, from Osha's pov: She's killed Sol and lost Mae. She has no one and is in danger if the Jedi find out she killed Sol. With Qimir, she's not alone, gains safety, and training.

But, with Qimir she's also cementing herself on the path of the dark side. Technically, she could have left Brendok and tried to live a quiet life. Joining Qimir, she will always, in a sense, be in danger and/or on the run.

Granted, knowing Mae is with the Jedi and without her memories (for her!) she'd probably struggle to live any other way.

Then, from Qimir's pov: He essentially gets everything he wanted lol. A pupil and the power of two.

But, he's also been on his own for so long. Mae doesn't really count because he wasn't his true self. By partnering with Osha, he's in the most danger he's been in... probably ever. Osha will become his weakness and make him vulnerable because now he has something to lose. Prior, he doesn't care much about his own life. Look at how he acts in combat.

Vulnerability is not inherently bad, but when you're living in survival mode... it will shift his priorities in a way he didn't anticipate. That's when he's liable to make mistakes.

Ok but what in the hell are these people/beings?? And what is going on in these scenes??

Is this a flashback? An encounter with the spirit world?

Environmentally and culturally it looks Shuriman but otherwise I’m completely baffled.

Osha turns, startled, and freezes. “What are you doing here?” He’s not supposed to be here. He doesn’t work for them anymore. Qimir just smiles at her, warm and easy, his hand still on her back as if they were old friends, as if they were lovers. “I need you to listen to me very carefully,” he says, so close his lips brush against her ear. “Stay calm, and act natural, for as long as you can. Do exactly what I tell you, when I tell you to do it, and everything will be okay.” He pulls back, still smiling, and adds, “You look beautiful, by the way.” She’s so disoriented by his words that it takes her a few seconds to notice the gun in his hand.

The Acolyte is the only canceled show that's impacted me this deeply. No other cancellation has hit me like this one. I'd trade some of my past favorite shows in a heartbeat for it to comeback. and get the full 3 seasons that Leslye had planned

Joker 2 is flopping, yet there's a noticeable absence of headlines declaring white male leads a liability or calling for them to be given fewer opportunities. Compare that to how Nia DaCosta was treated during The Marvels theatrical run, where the media was on a mission to tarnish her reputation, for something that was out of her control. We’re supposed to feel bad for Todd, but no sympathy was given to Nia, when her film and cast was facing a major hate campaign, plus couldn’t promote due to the actors strikes.

White male-led films and shows are allowed to flop quietly, and still be given chances. And there have been plenty of male box office flops this year alone, yet the scrutiny and backlash seem reserved for projects led by women or people of colour, where failure (even if it’s out of their control) brings harsh criticism.

The incels would be mad, while the Oshamir fandom celebrates. I feel like it would motivate us to fight even harder for the show even more 😹

Okay, but can someone from the cast leak the cut kiss footage. I think about it everyday
