#8 running on empty

[cirrus-grey]

TMA Gerry, dressed in head-to-toe black, with died black hair and tattoos, gaunt as a skeleton, smoking a cigarette: Who're you?

TMAGP Gerry, dressed in bright colors, with natural hair and no tattoos, plump-cheeked, drinking herbal tea: I'm you, but traumatized differently.

alright buckle up it’s time for me to spread my hoshina/mina agenda

1. mina being unserious as hell with the most serious face when it comes to hoshina (taking a picture of him being upset over losing kaiju #8)

2. “could you be the one to carve the path for me?” she specifically asked him because of his swordsmanship that every elder/senior in his life had dismissed him for citing it was an end of an era. she’s the only one who believed in him after years of being put down by everybody (even his own family)

3. devotion & loyalty & trust - do i even need to say anything they make me go crazy

i can’t add anymore pics so i’ll word dump properly in another post but wow i’m bonkers abt them 😭 something something thank you for choosing me / thank you for being someone i can rely on

i can't imagine gerard the encyclopedia kaey being oblivious in any universe so i'm choosing to think he might be taking the mike crew approach,,, waiting until sam pushes and then going well. for the record i tried really hard to be polite and normal but if you insist, here are the h o r r o r s

now that we know that gerry drinks herbal tea, imagine that one scene where jon offers him a cigarette and gerry can't smoke it because he's a ghost, but with gerry offering jon tea (you know, like martin did all the time), but jon can't drink it BECAUSE HE'S IN A COMPUTER

Running on Empty (1988). The eldest son of a fugitive family comes of age and wants to live his own life.

Oh, I loved this one so much more than I was expecting! In many ways, i really does feel like a touchstone for Coda, particularly in the way it asks the question of when a child has to stop living for their parents and start living for themselves, but it also feels ultimately like a more complex film. With parents on the run after an act of anti-war protest gone wrong, it explores not just what it means to come of age, but what it takes to act on your beliefs and to survive the reality of that. Just a really, really good film. 8/10.

sooo. an entry read by martin Norris that is clearly about the Lonely (with hints of the Spiral). interesting.

Hey have we considered that the title this episode got released as, "hostile workplace", is not a mistake or next episode's title but Colin's cry for help that has been silenced by Lena or Fr3 d1?

[thermodynamic-comedian]

idk if i'm the biggest fan of gertrude being put in the role of gerry's grandma specifically (see also: found family doesn't need specified roles) but what's important to me is that she's not opposed to the idea of having any sort of genuine connection to someone. i feel like mistrust and solitude have always defined her to some degree before, so to see this version of her that doesn't hesitate to call gerry a family member is. something that can be so personal,

Since there are Archives doppelgangers in the Protocol world, that means there were probably Protocol doppelgangers in the Archives world as well.

I want Colin to have been the IT guy at the Magnus Institute who had to deal with all of Not!Sasha's verification errors in S2.

i really wish the duckett had an actual cool looking model instead of "we took the coquilett and stretched it. enjoy" like maybe if it had instead been a short and chunky dafeng handgun. instead we're stuck with this ufckin joker pistol for shooting down the batwing
