#DOES THIS MAKE ANY SENSE???

[chimneyz]

this may sound delusional but the more i sit with what happened in confessions as well as what happened between buck and tommy through out season eight, reading everyone's analysis on the situation, i have to say it makes more sense for there to be some for om accident (helicopter crash) that leads buck and tommy back together and for them to grow as well. personally i am hoping for another buck begins (evan begins) that showcases the past and their relationship, moments we never got to see. these bringing a bit more insight into tommy as well. an episode that really showes us their insecurities and where it stems from as well as how much they both need each other, love each other and it all leading them back together. sure there will be stuff to figure out together but why have them work out their stuff alone when they can do it together.

Crackpot theory but maybe Bill didn’t purposely burn down his dimension. Time and time again he’s an unreliable narrator, often playing up himself and overexaggerating his stories, so this is one of them.

Bill definitely has trauma from destroying his dimension, but maybe it’s more of a blacked out trauma because it was inflicted upon him and not the other way around. Maybe he HAD to burn down his dimension to save them from something. Maybe the monster he talked about was real. The only way to cope with what he did was to own it. I don’t think the Great Gatsby story tie in was random.

Gatsby himself was known to have many identities, which grew more wild and sporadic with every retelling. He already had unreliable sources from the beginning. He was charming, threw lavish parties, dressed formally at all occasions. But in the end we find out that Gatsby was poor and lead a sardonic life, wishing to be with Daisy after his time at war. In the end, Gatsby took the hit for Daisy’s murder and paid the ultimate price.

Maybe that’s what Bill had to do. There was an actual monster, and it would destroy his dimension if he didn’t stop it. He started a fire to kill it, but it kept burning until there was nothing left. Afterwards, he exaggerated the arson, own it like HE did it and not because he was forced to. Bill’s coping was to throw crazy parties with his henchmaniacs, ramp up his chaos to hide how broken he was from his dimension burning. He misses his mom, he wants to go home.

Sry if it doesn’t make any sense. 2Am and I’m tired

i think about kendall knight and the hockey teams he wants to play centre for and i am so intrigued.

one is the minnesota wild, his hometown team. a team that symbolizes home, staying close to his mother and sister (and going based on the popular fan headcanons, potentially his dad as well) and his childhood dream of being a professional hockey player in a space where he most likely feels safe.

on the other hand, he wants to play for the maple leafs. now, putting my personal beef with toronto aside, i find it interesting that an American hockey player not only wants to play for a Canadian team, but knows about one. yes, obviously Canada’s hockey culture is… insane. but Americans, as well documented often don’t know jackshit about Canada. or any other country for that matter.

there’s also the fact that st paul is 831.1 million miles away from toronto. realistically, prior to season one of btr, has kendall ever left st paul? maybe for a hockey tournament, but there’s no way he’s spent significant time away from home.

i think it’s interesting that he would even consider moving that far away from home. especially considering his mom is a single mom and his dad as far as we know is out of the picture. it’s not common for children of single parents to move far away from their parents especially when they have younger siblings.

listen listen. lol viktor is the machine herald. arcane viktor is the arcane harbinger. it’s a small difference in words but it’s the best description of their differences.

fossils are great because like. thats the creature. this creature was alive and moving and breathing millions and millions of years ago, and now you're holding it in your hand. And nothing about it has really changed other than it's dead now and it's body has been preserved. it's the same creature that was once alive even though it doesn't feel that way, all the same and never forgotten

The BoundSMP cast are like the people that get tagged in that game where you sit down and tag people when you're tagged but cannot move

BoundSMP are the original taggers

The cast are the sit-taggers

we're the runners

Matthew and Hanbin together are so funny cuz it's like getting a little window into a weird parallel universe were "innocent schoolboy nextdoor that you wanna take home to your parents" era one direction and "beloved of drag queens serving cvnt bratz doll" era little mix somehow manage to coexist

[dimsilver]

okay @thebirdandhersong your post about Lockwood & co / Agent Carter trios really got me thinking…because Peggy is like Lucy because they both have that “shut up and use some common sense” thing and that “stop being so reckless, don’t throw your life away” thing going on BUT Peggy is like Lockwood in that she doesn’t practice what she preaches - she continues to work alone and be reckless with her own life, and she’s bitter about her aloneness sometimes but afraid of letting people in because she and they might both get hurt. Sousa and Jarvis (and Angie) steady and ground Peggy and get her to open up to life and love (like George and Lucy [and Flo] do for Lockwood).

Also having vague thoughts about Sousa “I’m with you to the end, Peggy” and Lockwood “You know I’d die for you”…..!!!

I am listening to the song lacy again and I really wish I could put into words the way that this song makes me feel abt Nadine. I think there are plenty of ways to read it but. When it comes to Nadine I can’t help but think about how their mother desperately wanted them to be a super feminine girl, and growing up whenever they would have crushes on girls like that, they couldn’t help but see what the world wanted from them in that girl. So the crushes hurt in a way they couldn’t quite describe

[enrapture]

it pains me being a naturally very empathetic person. Whenever I feel some type of way (rightfully valid) if someone feels bad (sad, anger etc) about what they’ve done to me or said to me or did to me I FEEL BAD AFTERWARDS for making them feel that way because of HOW I feel. Like being deeply understanding of how I feel and how YOU feel it’s too much and conflicts/contradicts one another and ugh I hate being this way so much. I hate empathy. I hate that other people lack empathy. I hate being misunderstood. I always Look at the bigger picture of things. All perspectives instead of my own. I always look at others shoes and as a bonus look at the shoes I’m standing in before I decide on where I stand. I wish others did the same.

[skippydiesposting]

GOD the thing about The Mark And The Void is that it feels like it was a prank pulled on me specifically, as someone who is unreasonably incredibly familiar with a different Paul Murray book....especially since it's the book that directly follows Skippy Dies. like Character Paul (who is himself an author) keeps making oblique references to his prior novel which took seven years to write which is exactly the length between the publication of Paul Murray's first novel and Skippy Dies....like even the name of the fake novel ("For Love of a Clown") feels so jokey/tongue-in-cheek tragicomic that I feel like it must be winking towards Skippy Dies at least somewhat.

plus the fact that the major theme(s) in the book are all focused on the reflection of reality and fiction/the nature of creating art/art as artifice/what it means to find meaning in art.....like he doesn't even know that he's speaking directly to me but he is and what a brilliant thing it is to make a fictionalized version of yourself to hang out with one of your own characters who is then able to point back (🫵🏻) at the reader themselves in a very literal way....like UGH he is amazing I don't know how he did it. I don't think he even knows that he did it. it torments me.

Was looking at refs and since Viktor has two different leg braces I was wondering, do we think he wears them simultaneously?? The refs don't perfectly line up perspective-wise so it's hard to tell but parts of the one he wears during the Hexcore scenes look like they could maybe line up with the brace that he wears over his clothes, but also some parts really don't and look like they'd be super uncomfy. Also HOW does he take these on and off. Experts weigh in

so basically, umm... Movie Sonic feeling the feels for Movie Shadow, just a tiny bit. And Knuckles unknowingly crushing on Rouge, but not just a tiny bit. Ykyk
