I'm thinking about Sunday again and how we're shown that Robin is his weak spot over and over and really he probably wouldn't have slipped up if not for the people trying to exploit her death.

In 2.0 we see them hanging out together and the like but we don't see them interact much, Robin very obviously cares for Sunday but Sunday maintains a quiet atmosphere and professional facade and as such one could wonder how much he actually cares about her as his sister.

But then at the end of the quest we see the cracks start to show a bit. Sparkle pretends to be Robin and Sunday becomes enraged. Until then he's pretty subdued in his behavior in the aftermath, but the mockery of his sister's death is too great a slight and when Sparkle offers to pretend to be Robin so nobody gets suspicious, Sunday tells her to stuff it and go away which she does. It's a really telling scene that when Robin is involved his careful mask cracks down the middle and he begins to not think clearly or strategically because later in 2.1 it's noted he went back to accept the offer.

Aventurine notes that Robin's death is an entry point for the IPC to exploit but not for the overall Family, just for Sunday. Sunday is reeling to find control with the other heads pressuring him and the IPC closing in like a pack of hungry vultures. Sunday was always alone except for Robin and they're both pretty aware of the corruption as Sunday is desperately trying to root out the traitor while Robin left and is helping him research Death. Aventurine knows this and he knows Sunday is off balance and prone to overlooking things in his rage and grief that's potent in everything he does after 2.0's quest. Sunday went to Ratio for informatiom because he understands Aventurine's a threat needing to be taken seriously and he needs to handle him quickly and efficiently and that makes him sloppy enough to get duped by the Jade cornerstone.

When Welt and Acheron investigate his office they find all the letters and lists and investigations into the problem but they also find a beloved lightcone of a young Sunday watching his sister preform on a toy stage. Robin is noted as finding this preformance her favorite and most cherished one. Is Sunday clapping to applaud her or is he keeping time for her? Sunday keeps things running himself so she can free to persue her dreams. He does care about Robin, they really only have each other.

Finally... Gallagher. You really see the persona Sunday puts on finally shatter all at once. This is the man who murdered his sister and who's caused him so much trouble and stress. Nobody's around to fool, nobody's around to witness, and you finally see all his pent up rage and grief spill out. That's his mistake, he's so distracted letting out his bottled up feelings Gallagher's able to get him before he can even react.

Small side analysis, Robin's name and signature song come from the Emily Dickinson poem of the same name. She's an American Poet who mostly wrote works of Romanticism and Transcendentalism. We haven't see much of Robin but she seems to match Romantacism, a literary movement that focused on emotion and individualism with no regard for logic. Sunday seems to match Transcendentalism, a literary movement that focused on the relationship between humanity, the divine, and nature with little regard for science. The three aspects of Transcendentalism also match Xipe's motif of threes, like their three heads.

idk i do wish i was more connected to my own culture and stuff. like i don’t really have unique stuff to share about it.

[sqweegee]

i think dnis are a little useless at actually keeping the people on them from interacting but i also think it’s fair to say “these are people i don’t want in my notes and if i see they are i’m probably going to block them”. like legal disclaimer i hate you

[danystargaryens]

So, um, I came from the depths of hell to annoy my friend Kat that I saw here as an anon just to tell him that Mikoto would NOT win against John in a fight for Mikoto's love.

That gamer ass ginger is build like a twig that John could break in half.

Wait, HALF?????

KAZUI???? 07???? 😱😱😱😱😱😱

*sings half aggressivelly*

Oh, I'm Sora btw :3

Hi Sora im so tired i had to reread this a few times GJEBFKDJFBSLDJDVENDISHD

Im gonna assume you meant Fuuta when you said Mikoto the first time?

While I agree he could definitely beat him in a fight we have to remember that yes Fuuta is a gamer but he's also a soccer player (source is interrogation questions on the wiki (from memory)) so I think he'd at least last a bit longer than he would if he were built like me. (<- actual twig)

Imagine Shadow and Bone in a different genre, where the ridiculous love triangle is not in the focus, where we follow the Darkling for a while and get a glimpse into his ways of scheming and plotting and fighting the war and of course committing atrocities 😇

The romance is very very insignificant and maybe even nonexistent for a long while. They need each other but their personalities and beliefs clash all the time. Maybe until one of them almost dies and the other realises just how alone would they be if that really happened. Then a sort of trapped in this together dynamic would turn into something else where they would be more open and even start to trust and rely on each other.

The point is that he should meet someone polar opposite of him and he may be on the path to corrupt them but in exchange he becomes conflicted too until they are not seeing the world in black and white but realise they have to walk a different path together, somewhere in between because the real world and especially war is not that simple

The Darkling needs hope but his 'pair' has to learn how the real world works and leave behind some (a lot) of their naivety and innocence and find a (new) purpose, which of course becomes the same as the Darkling's, keeping their people safe.

the funniest meltdown ive ever had was in college when i got so overstimulated that i could Not speak, including over text. one of my friends was trying to talk me through it but i was solely using emojis because they were easier than trying to come up with words so he started using primarily emojis as well just to make things feel balanced. this was not the Most effective strategy... until. he tried to ask me "you okay?" but the way he chose to do that was by sending "👉🏼👌🏼❓" and i was so shocked by suddenly being asked if i was dtf that i was like WHAT???? WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY TO ME?????????? and thus was verbal again

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

[idontmindifuforgetme]

lived my whole life in guilt bc i thought i was responsible for people's feelings. newly realizing that other people are responsible for their feelings and reactions, even if they make it seem like i'm the problem. a lot of the time it really has to do w them and their own emotional regulation. i can't keep thinking i'm not allowed to have space bc of other people's insecurities. like i literally refuse to dim myself. other people are responsible for their feelings just as i'm responsible for mine.
