Hello!
Wonderful "Eat Your Ego, Honey" got me wondering:
what would happen if Homelander was interested in a stripper?
She's known for her dancing and, he sensed, her secret superpower/-s. Would he be furious that a girl dances in front of some "dirty" men? Would he torture her for being afraid of him? Would he be uncomfortable with the smell of her sweaty body?
I literally see scene of meeting: she's dancing to gothic metal in the dim lights of the room; Homelander is freaking out, jealous and horny (because he feels like she's having a blast dancing).
Thanks for your fanfics, I adore it! Because of your headcanons I fell in love with Homelander and decided to watch the series...
anon. the absolute RABBIT HOLE you sent me spiraling down with this ask is genuinely insane. firstly tho, thank you!! i'm so happy you enjoy my work and have been inspired to watch the show! i hope you love it as much as i did.
okay, now, onto the meat of this. i can't imagine Homelander ever being in a strip club, but i absolutely can see Vought having a dancer supe who performs at shows! and then i started thinking about what kind of powers she might have.
(this got long. strap in.)
and okay. bear with me here. i have the FAINTEST memory of a kids show (something like goosebumps or are you afraid of the dark) where they told a monkey-paw type story of a girl who wished that everyone would like/love her. and of course this turned out to be a fucking nightmare. people were obsessed with her automatically to a scary degree and she was eventually swarmed and maybe killed by the aggression of the adoring crowd? i don't remember.
but that made me think about her power being something of that nature. a chemical that compels people to adore her. when she sweats, and that sweat evaporates off of her skin, it fills the air people in the vicinity inhale it. it's what makes her dances so incredibly popular! but too much exposure to her powers can cause, uh... scary side effects in people. make them deranged. obsessive.
she hates it. it's destroyed all the relationships in her life. it's pretty much inevitable that she'll eventually effect the people around her, and it either freaks them out to the point they break contact with her or creates a completely inauthentic infatuation with her. it's impossible for her to know if anyone actually likes her, or if they're just under the influence of her powers.
she, like Homelander, would know what it's like to be "loved" in the most hollow sense of the word.
how cut to Homelander who's present at one of these shows where she's dancing and oh my god something smells incredible. downright intoxicating. it calls to every fiber of his being and he follows the scent of it until he's close enough to the stage, and it shocks him to his core to realize it's a person.
except! Homelander is so fucking chock full of V himself that he's not wholly affected by her... idk, pheromones? whatever you want to call her aura of effect. but he IS intrigued by it. by her. by the way her body moves and how she seems to have cast a SPELL on the entire audience.
he expects he'll be able to get a chance to speak with her after the performance, but bafflingly, she gets the FUCK outta there as soon as her set is done. naturally he has to follow!!!!
and okay i just had so many ideas for this! i even thought of One Single Friend she has who's a fellow supe and, due to his own powers, he's immune to her effect. i haven't figured out how exactly. maybe he doesn't breathe the way normal humans do. or he has some kind of innate filtration that makes him immune to gasses and things. his supe name is something stupid like... The Filtrator.
speaking of which her supe name would probably be like. Enchantress. something that alludes to the charming effect she has. but her friend knows how her powers work and he playfully calls her The Perspiren. perspiring siren. 😭😂
anyways i think they could have a lot of really interesting parallels! and of course Homelander would be intensely possessive of her, but he's also a HUGE exhibitionist and i think he would get off on knowing how badly everyone wants someone that's his.
he wouldn't ever physically hurt/torture her, but he would of course become violent if his possession of her were challenged or threatened in any way. if anyone touched what's his, or presumed they could take her. anyone she showed interest in would definitely wind up dead.
can you tell that i thought WAY too hard about this.
idk if i would make this an oc or a reader fic. i feel like this could definitely work for my first proper supe!reader fic! it's got a ton of potential. thanks so much for sending this!
#ask and you shall receive#darling anon#homelander x reader#homelander x you#homelander x supe!reader#homelander headcanons#sorry i spent this whole ask just spitballing ideas but#i'm sooo into this

yellowjackets s2 finale spoilers but I am screaming crying fucking throwing up that -
The wilderness ostensibly did choose Natalie the first time. It was Misty in all her human cunning who figured out a loophole, how she could change the game so it worked in her favor. She saved Natalie from being chosen when they were young, so not only did the wilderness return for what it was owed, it ensured Natalie's death was at Misty's own hand. It's so on-theme. The girls wanted Shauna to live and so her baby died. They asked for food and then there was Jackie perfectly cooked. Misty rescued Natalie from the others and now Misty has been unable to save Natalie from herself because she has never, ever been willing or able to engage with her own darkness no matter how many innocent people she hurts.
It's tragic and cosmic and it rips out my heart. Misty never wanted Crystal to die and she never wanted Natalie to die. This is the same girl who expressed anger at herself through grief-stricken sobs as she cried out, "You always do this!" She doesn't understand why she's like this or how she manages to shatter every single thing she cares about in the world despite trying so desperately to protect and preserve them. But she does. She's done it again and again and she always, every time, finds a way to make it not her fault.
The thing is - as much as the wilderness seems to function as a genie-esque entity that grants wishes but never in the way one might expect - "the wilderness" was always primarily a convenient excuse for the girls to externalize the darkness they couldn't accept as part of them. Shauna says as much - that it was an unspoken agreement among them to shift the fault for whatever they had to do to survive onto this powerful force that was easy to buy into and blame.
"It" returned and chose Natalie again because "it" is that need to justify and defend and believe even in the face of all evidence that you're still a good person who loves and helps and takes care of people. You're not a monster. You're not a killer, and even if you did kill a few people, it was for the good of the group.
Until, that is, you miscalculate your aim, and you get to live with having watched the light leave the eyes of the last person you loved in your arms because you killed her. You killed her for nothing; it meant nothing, it did nothing, it was for nothing, and it's going to ruin Misty Quigley as the one act she will never, ever find a good enough excuse to soothe away the guilt of.

Literally every single headcanon idea for Feyd and the new oc, chose any you like I wanna know all of them
HMMM okay omg there were so many questions this is about to feel like HOMEWORK!!! Let me lay the ones I like out. I kinda weave my own canon in to fill out blanks from the OG canon material btw.
(i've decided to name her Eshal, it means 'flower of paradise' in Arabic and is only fitting considering the influences in Dune)
How did your muses meet?
Feyd-Rautha killed her father and dragged her by the hair back to his spaceship. Mhm. I wish I could make it more romantic. But I cannot. Eshal was on the verge of going through the spice agony when the Harkonnens arrived, and for some reason that is inexplicable to both her and her fellow sayyadina, she couldn't use the Voice even though she had the ability before. She hasn't been able to use it since she was brought onto Giedi Prime (though I guess shrieking with grief and rage as Feyd dragged her to the ship counts as a very hearty attempt).
2. How long have your muses known each other?
About two months since he took her.
3. What was the last gift your muses got for each other?
Well, you see, Feyd got her a music box. It had her mother's teeth in it. She does appreciate it, though she'd never tell him, and she definitely knows he didn't do it out of the goodness of his heart. He just wanted to break her spirit, but instead, it's the one thing keeping her from suicide because she focuses on the question: who will protect my mother's teeth if I'm gone? (Her father did it before her - she has no siblings)
4. Do your muses have a 'place' that's just for the two of them?
Yes, the dungeon.
5. Do your muses want children?
Feyd is like the Baron in the sense in that he has a great deal of disgust for the Bene Gesserit breeding program. However he is fascinated by them, and it's like 'penis envy' but in reverse (whatever that's called). I think if it came to it, he'd come round to the idea of an heir, though we better keep that little mf away from him if it's a boy because he's definitely the kind of father who'd be overly competitive with a son.
Eshal would rather cut out her own tongue than consider having a child outside of the breeding program (this may or may not change).
6. Do your muses want to get married?
No.
7. Do your muses have any pets together?
Feyd has his harpy pets. Eshal can share them I suppose.
8. What do your muses do for fun together?
One tortures the other. The other screams. And then occasionally pisses themselves and starts laughing deliriously.
9. Which one of your muses is more affectionate?
An anaconda is more affectionate than either of them.
10. Who's most likely to apologise first after an argument?
Argument? What argument?
11. What was your muses first impression of each other?
Feyd thought she was very pretty in the way a deer is very pretty just before you shoot and kill it. The deers on Giedi Prime have poison tongues though, so if one gets you just before you get it, it's over for both of you.
Eshal thought he was bald and barbaric as fuck. Her opinion hasn't changed.
12. What is one word that would describe your muses relation?
Demonic.
13. What is your muse's sex life like? How frequent? What are they into?
*awkward laugh* Not with each other...but uhhhh...well, I'm guessing since Eshal hasn't been admitted into any kind of Bene Gesserit breeding program yet, she's still a virgin (?) I don't know if they're allowed to have sex recreationally outside of their assigned penis-havers.
Feyd fucks. Like everyday. Doggy position is his favourite. He doesn't like eye contact until it's on his own terms, and he doesn't like any kind of intimacy that involves being reminded the person he's fucking is also a human being. Hence the doggy position where he doesn't have to see their face. I also headcanon that he's into CNC/Bloodplay/Asphyxiation/Humiliation/Degradation all that stuff, ya know? He's also massively into Fearplay. If you don't know what that is...get acquainted.
14. Do your muses have a 'song' that's just for them?
No, but I have some for them.

Hector and Trauma
You know what. I wanna talk about Hector from Castlevania, specifically the Netflix version of the character. (Again: I hate CoD Hector, who just replaces his dead girlfriend for her fucking clone. That's just fucking low.)
As people might've noticed... I am kinda obsessing about this man right now. And the main reason is that... I really do identify with him in a way I have not identified with a fictional character before. I read him as autistic (though I am not sure whether he was supposed to be read that way or just happens to be written in a way that every single autistic person I know reads him so...) and I very much identify with the C-PTSD that he clearly has.
We do not know much about his childhood, other than "lonely kid revives animals to have friends" and "abusive parents". We do not know how far the abuse went, so whether it was just verbal abuse (which we know about) or went into physical abuse. All we know is that at some point he could no longer take it and killed his parents by setting the house on fire and locking them inside. We don't know, how old he was after this and what exactly he did after that. Only that in his early 20s he is somewhere on Rhodes with his undead animals, has already met Dracula once and then agrees to "cull" humans and then creates night creatures for Drac.
Again, there is little information for what has happened in the time in between. But we get enough information to understand that he has been at least somewhat mistreated by other humans, making him wish for humans to be somewhat culled.
Here my interpretation of him being autistic comes in, too. Because... an autistic child with an abusive home will completely lack social skills and hence will probably meet with a lot of abuse from other people. Because he would not know how to act around them.
Something we do see: He kinda seems to understand that Dracula is doing a genocide and not just a cull. But he very willingly ignores it or keeps himself soothed by thinking that he is just misunderstanding it until Carmilla comes in.
Now, Carmilla makes it clear that Dracula lied to him. But she obviously also betrays him and then abuses him. Something that is kinda ignored: During the march to Styria he is constantly abused. He has fresh bruises, when he arrives at Styria, making it rather clear, that he got beaten up constantly during the long march there. So: Say hello to even more trauma.
Along comes Lenore, her original violence against him and then obviously her betrayel. And let me make one thing clear: What she does to him in the finale of season 3 is sexual assault. Maybe not in the legal sense, but speaking of a psychological effect, it clearly is SA.
Obviously at that point we do have season 4. Where he seems kinda... fine. Like, what we see is, that he presents as fine. He is joking with Lenore. He is making his escape plan. He appears to be okay. Which is a state that seems to continue till the end of the show. Heck, we see him smile as Lenore dies........
And that should be a hint on how not-okay he is.
Let me talk about child abuse first. See, here is the thing: Children do not only develop physically, but also psychological and neurological. In that, they need to learn certain things at certain points in time. One of the first things children are supposed to learn, is to trust and mistrust. But for that they need a stable surrounding in which they can trust that they are cared for. Which children, who get abused or neglected, usually do not have. Especially with the dialogue we have from his mother: "I knew you were wrong from the moment you came out of me." (Note: This is another reason I read him as autistic, because at times autism shows even at infant age and without the information it might lead to parents not quite bonding with the child.)
They also need to learn some basic autonomy early on and to deal with self-doubt and shame. Which again abused children, who do not get encouraged to develop autonomy in a healthy environment and often might get shamed cannot develop.
Some other things they need to learn is how to deal with guilt, how to understand consequences, how to develop an identity and also what role they have in society. All things that children, who are abused, cannot properly learn. Additionally here, because Hector clearly has not found his own place in the society he lived in.
And this is something we actually do see in the show. He is absolutely unable to understand whom to trust or to see any red flags. He also is so clearly longing to be loved and praised by someone. Which is why he falls for Dracula and Carmilla and then Lenore. Heck, good chance that his understanding with Varney went something like that.
He is obviously not aware of this, but he is very much compensating for what was not given to him.
There are several characters over the entire story, that note how he has the mind of a child. And part of that is just, that he has childhood trauma and developmental delays because of it. And this delay is used again and again against him.
Something that is very noticable in the show is, that Hector never once cries. No matter how much he is abused and betrayed, he does not cry outside of the flashbacks where he is a kid. Now, in any other show it would not be that noticable, because we rarely do not see men cry in media........ but Castlevania is different here. Castlevania has no qualms letting the men cry.
Now, IRL it is obviously that a lot of men got taught not to cry. Because our society has the entire "boys don't cry" thing going on. BUT... I kinda doubt that is what is going on here.
See, one thing that happens in some cases, when people have amassed too much trauma, is, that they loose the ability for appropriate emotional responses to things happening to them. Mostly because the brain cannot process the emotion normally any longer.
Which is also why I think he is smiling in that last scene. Because... I mean, let's face it. The Lenore death thing has to be fucking traumatizing too. But he just... doesn't quite have the ability to process it in any proper way.
Now, how much of this is intended reading?
Honestly, I do have no idea. But at some points his behavior does make a lot of sense from the CPTSD point of view - and it is even called out by other character. Which kinda makes me think that at least some of it was intended.
Either way: I am rather thinking the man has a lot of healing to do post-canon. Because he not only has to heal from the stuff that happens to him in the series, but also the entire childhood trauma, that so very clearly is not addressed.
And if he addresses that trauma, there will also be a point in which he has to face his guilt. Because that is very much another thing he has not yet done.
Anyways. I adore him. And I want him to be alright. Q-Q

Got tagged by @redhoodinternaldialectical
My word is ENOCH, so the prompt is to go through a WIP file to find paragraphs starting with those letters and share a snipper. Enjoy some previews from my Superhero Thesis Novel and a junky xeno space lesbian romance.
Even talking was too loud.
“I’ll do her make-up with a little extra foundation and she’ll look fine,” Liz said. “You know I’m a miracle worker.”
She really was. When corporate realized there wasn’t a single professional make-up artist in all of Northern Nevada that could do dark skin who hadn’t already moved to Vegas, Liz was recruited off her social media make-up tutorials, and Sara had been nervous. Liz was a fan, and fans tended to be disappointed when their heroes were people, but she’d been…
She’d been a good friend, really. That was hard to find for heroes. You could only give your secret identity outside the industry if you were married, which meant lying a lot, but Liz hung out with her on days off and had her back at work. Kim could well get Liz fired, but Liz was confident in her skill.
The dehydration was too bad to sleep, but she wasn’t up for audiobooks or music, so she just lay back, wishing the roads were smoother. Maybe Bloom could campaign against potholes.
The IV was finally starting to kick in when her tablet buzzed.
“Fire. It’s an all hands,” Sara said, sitting up. “And Kim, before you say anything, we still have three hours before the shoot, and we can tell them we’ll be a little late due to the huge fucking fire, okay? Because if it gets out everyone else was saving homes and I was advertising strawberry milk, they’ll crucify me.”
Nexus was the only planet in the system where aliens were common, and even then, it was usually Batk-Hy. She’d never seen an alien in person. Humans were famous for their unprotected skin. Their name translated to ‘a bare heart under armor’, something that could refer to the contrast between their brutal and affectionate reputations or provide helpful instructions for killing them.
What did a sentient creature with no fur or scales look like in person? Were they slimy like exposed muscle or dry like sandstone?
“It is my honor to meet you all. I have been kindly granted the name Mist-Rolling-in-Across-the-Harbor. My shortname is to be ‘Harbor’.”
The human’s accent was perfect. Their voice was a bit odd, and she finally looked over to see if it had a throat injury.
Oh. Of course. Its voicebox wouldn’t be flexible enough to talk properly.
It was small, only up to Dawn’s shoulder, and without the armor she’d seen in pictures. It was dressed for the local heat in light cloth. The skin didn’t look slimy or dry; it looked like soft fabric.
Once Dawn was safely married out… it would be a relief to be an orphan. She would no longer be asked to be a spy to her own mate. She could forget her past and make a better life with her new family, raise her children with affection and gentleness. If she didn’t like the family she married into, she’d be free to divorce, take anyone or no one as her mate, go to another planet. Go to another Solar System where House Mist meant nothing.
If Harbor tried to kill her, however, she was screwed. Killing Dawn was as easy as turning off her heater on a cold night.
Well, if Uncle Close didn’t know how to win a human’s loyalty, Dawn would have to learn how to do it right. She didn’t need a loyal tool. She just needed, if Harbor ever realized how many of her problems could be solved with murder, not to be one of those problems.
"Course. How’s your day going?”
Listening to her complain about office politics was a nice break from hero stuff. He’d been seeing too much of the kind of stuff nobody filmed. Grieving loved ones, hecklers and catcallers nearly every time they got out of the car, and the slow realization that Derby was maybe not stable enough to keep herself safe in the field. People admired her work ethic, but, from close up, Drew thought it looked more like compulsion.
Derby slept two hours, but she woke up to the emergency alarm.
“Shit,” she said. “Shit fuck. Villain punched out a support column on a hotel. We’ve got a lot of people injured. We need to go.”
She leaned toward, like she could make the car run on her own energy.
He’d seen the AYMU building downtown. AYMU’s hero office was a shining tower you could see from blocks away, the logo across the eighth floor daring a villain to attack. Drew knew most hero offices were non-descript. He was pretty sure daisy heroics operated out of a coffee shop downtown.
The office his GPS had taken him to was ugly, a squat, brown thing from the seventies with a few decorative plants barely hanging on to life. Drew stepped through the sliding doors onto yellow-brown carpet, worn down the center and coming up at the edges. He was still half hoping for this to be a front, but instead of pressing in a code and taking the elevator down into a lair, he was shown into a meeting room with foam cups and stale coffee. The woman across from him, Joanne, was small and professional. She handed him stacks of documents to sign.
Kicking it forward to @lebirbybitch @19cats-and-counting @esseastri @abalidoth if they want to play. Your word is REMAIN,

You all I FINALLY got a Playstation 5 a month ago (so happy!!!) and while the 90% of the owners of a PS5 are talking about THAT wizard game which name I’ll not say I’m here, obsessed with Detroit Become Human. I mean I wanted to play it since the day it was released (five years ago lmao I know I’m late) but I couldn’t because I didn’t have the console but now I do and I knew it was great but OH MY GOD I didn’t except to be THAT GOOD. IT’S A MASTERPIECE. IT’S ONE OF THE BEST GAME EVER CREATED. Like I bought it 4 weeks ago and I already did 3 different walkthroughs (yes that’s why I haven’t been a lot on tumblr lately sorry about that) but I can’t wait any longer to talk about it so here you go, my opinions about this awesome game and everything I loved about Detroit Become Human who none asked for. You’re welcome (if you are following me for Braime or something else and you don’t want to see things about Detroit Become Human don’t worry just filter/block the tag, I tag all the posts).
- Always loved the games where a story takes different ways because of your choices (my icon is literally a screen from a game who works that way) and this one has like 99+ different endings based of how you played and most chapters have like 5 different endings like hello??? I love this???
- The screenwriting is terrific. Amazing. And I don’t mean only the story, but the dialogues and characters too. The characters OH MY GOD. There isn’t a single positive character that I didn’t get attached to and none of them is stereotyped, not even the villains. Fuck David Cage, why you didn’t write GOT??? It’s a totally different story from DBH, but I know you could have done better than Dumb & Dumber. Before buying it, I was 100% positive to do every single choice even the worst ones who would get every character killed but now I can’t??? I love them all???
- I wish the story was longer. It wasn’t short at all, but the story was that profound and beautiful and I love these characters I wanted more????
- Loved how they showed the way androids were treated by humans. They didn’t show a lot of the violence humans did to androids because they didn’t need to. Because you could feel it. Seeing public places with “Androids not allowed” on the door and seeing them in the bus being in a limited space for them separated from the humans exactly like it happened to jews and black community in the past. Also the camps where in the end they put the androids to exterminate them look intentionally like Extermination Camps (even in the game itself they say so). A punch in the stomach.
- Loved that most of the characters are androids. The only human character of the protagonists is Hank, literally everyone else is an android and this was perfect. This is a story about androids. They are the ones who are being oppressed. And the humans in this story are pretty good in their villains roles.
- Thank God they didn’t put a romance as the main theme of the story, “an impossibile love between an android or a human” bullshit. This is a story about robots created by humans that were treated like objects, that were a property, who were selled on shops, and they were THAT oppressed they were able to develop emotions and their own personality and break their program to be themselves, people who wanted their freedom and start living as the living beings they are with dignity. This is what makes the story powerful.
- Loved that when Kara, Markus and Connor stop being machines and become deviants you see them fighting against an invisible wall until it’s destroyed, because that wall is their programming and breaking it means they’ll be free to be who they want, stopping being a machine and becoming a living being. Beautiful.
- Android Chloe being on the menu settings that talks to you sometimes but when you finish the story for the first time she tells you she feels different and ask you the permission to leave to discover herself and if you say yes she thank you and leaves??? I don’t know who had this idea but he/she is a genius
- The music. Gods. The music.
And the characters. Gods. Let’s talk about them.
- I knew Connor is loved by everyone and I fully expected to don’t like him that much. I was wrong. I love him.
- I don’t know what the fuck is going on between Markus and Simon, but there isn’t a single logical heterosexual explanation for them. Actually wait, I kinda know what’s going on 😁
- Never romanced North in any of my walkthroughs and never will. I love her but fuck it, if Simon can’t have Markus, NONE CAN.
- I love Ralph. So much. He deserved more screen time! They put him there to scare you with him being mentally unstable and always with a big knife in his hand (pretty sure he killed people too but shhh), but he’s like that because of trauma!! Someone help him and give him some love and therapy!! It’s crazy that they worked so hard making him so interesting when some players don’t even know of his existence since he has like 10 minutes of screen time and you met him only if you do certain choices. Again, the writing is killing it.
- Loved that Zlatko got killed (at least in my walkthrough) from the androids he tortured for fun. Poetic cinema. Freeing them from their cells so they could kill him was one of the best choices I made in this game.
- Protect Simon at all costs. Him and Ralph are the kings in being cinnamon rolls.
- I know a lot of people ships Hank and Connor, but I actually got the Father/Son dynamic from them? I can see why someone like them as a romantic couple, but I see them like a Parent and his kid, like Joel and Ellie from the Last of Us. They have the best non romantic relationship of the game.
- North, Simon and Josh following Markus wherever he goes being ready to die every time, even if they disagree with his approach. Wow. That’s fucking loyalty.
- Markus has the best story, Connor the best arc and Kara has the most anxious story (with better plot twists). At least in my opinion. Everyone is the best in something.
- Loved that Kara and Alice met Luther because of Zlatko. After that awful experience with him, it’s good to know that it brought something positive too.
- I fangirled everytime two of the three main characters of the game met, I didn’t even know it was possible??? I fangirled even more when I saw the choice of making Connor a deviant.
- It makes sense that Connor becomes a deviant at the end, since he was created to stop deviants, he needed more time to evolve and to break his program. I just wished i saw more of him with Markus and the Jericho group fighting together against the humans, the humans he worked with before, and I wanted him to interact with Simon, since if previously you did different choices, Simon would have died because of Connor. Maybe if you pick certain choices they meet? I don’t know.
Everyone should play this. Everyone should know this amazing, profound story. This isn’t game, this is an experience. It has been done with passion. Passion from everyone. From David Cage who created this story and these characters and from the actors who played them with such emotion. Part of me wish they made a series they already have the actors since the characters have the actors’ appearance well maybe except the actress who played Alice I imagine she grown up but actually nope, the game is already with great cinematography and music and acting, it looks already a series. A great series.
Thanks to everyone who read it all!!! Sorry for the rant it’s just I love this story so much!!! And I’m looking for Detroit Become Human’s blogs (and maybe Markus x Simon blogs if possible, my shipper heart need them). Comment if you post about it so I can follow you please!!!

Honestly I cleaned all the shit up off my floor and I am palpably less suicidal so whatever. Literally big whoop. Its fucked up that we will all go crazy with age and that we are run by the crazy because nobody can escape it. That the insanity pervades every inch of life, human animal and plant. Like let's be real, we're literally all on a timer. For just, world shattering grief. And once you realize it, you feel like you're living thousands at once. Every little moment in time where you still have most your loved ones, most your friends, your family, a pet, a neighbor, every single micro instance you are getting closer to losing them. So you go crazy. You feel like youre losing everything pre-emptively. A little bit of a test drive. Of course you'll never truly know how it feels until it happens. We are all damned to this, everything that creates life may do so then die. Or not, who gives a shit. & I feel like I'm the only person I know whos been this deeply rocked by this news. Like. Uhm, why is nobody talking about this. This is something that forces its way to the front of my mind every chance it gets. I miss when I was free from it. I literally want it to stop so bad I've considered killing myself so I can stop thinking about it. But thats an idiotic move. I hate grief. I dont want to make more of it. Not to my friends, not to my mommy. I wish I could just grab a stranger off the street and give them whatever the fuck I got in my head so it leaves me alone. Maybe slip it in their pocket like a stone. I feel fucking insane the way I genuinely feel like I can't enjoy anything because I know it too will die. Like isnt it a bit fucked. And this knowlege, the fact that everything is temporary is supposed to like, increase the value of the like, literal miracle of life and shit. And believe me, it does. Now that I've repaired my relationship to my mother I realize now how fragile her life is. I take her to dinner more often, buy her flowers more often, help her more, hang out with her more. I am creating memories for myself, and for her. I just want her to be happy. I know for a fact that if I killed myself she would follow. I love her so fucking much. I don't want her to suffer any more than I've already made her. Lets be frank, I fucking suck. For so much of my life I felt like I was put on this earth just to curse her. She went through hell to have me, and I fucking hated her. For no reason. I grew up thinking she would kill me, I made her cry and shit. And we're cool now. I want her last years to be happy. But after that? What then? She had to deal with her mothers death. But she's like 50. What of me? When I lose her young? I could kill myself after she dies, and I will really really really want to, but that's literlly stupid. Its stupid. What animal in nature kills itself because mommy died. We just, we all have to deal with it eventually, we all have to move on. If anything I could shit out a kid in my late 20s so it can also go through with what every single thing on earth from the first fucking sunbeam to touch the dead rocks had to deal with. The kid can go crazy just like me. Like literally every conscious thing & it literally doesnt matter. I can't tell this shit to a therapist cause I'm afraid she'll hit the silent alarm on me and they'll make the ending of i have no mouth and I must scream happen to me

i love hearing your opinions on all the characters!!
what do you think about claudia?
thank you so much!!! 🥹🥰
and ohhhhh my. my daughter my GIRL
first impression: kirsten dunst claudia (again when i was 15) and i loved her INSTANTLY she played the fuck out of that part, i loved how gleefully evil she was and her rage and torment and just the LOOK and concept of her was so fucking cool to me!!!!! i was devastated when she died, it broke me to pieces. her and tomstat were my favorite parts of the movie and i think they’re the reason i have such a deep love for claudia’s relationship with lestat, because you could just feel all the complicated love and hate between them in the film. when i read the book, i felt much the same way, but i understood her hatred of lestat even more and i was further enthralled by her predicament. i loved her reasoning for killing him, how it was for HER, how it was revenge for dooming her, for not seeing her beyond anything but a dress-up doll who will never change, for not taking her seriously, for this selfish act of creating her for his and louis’ sake. i loved how she took back her ownership of herself, how she’s the truest vampire because she has no memory of being a human, and how she’s always the smartest person in the room. i also was touched when i read the history behind her character and the tragedy of michele rice, so claudia holds a lot of meaning for me in that way as well.
impression now: just like with louis, the show took this character and elevated her to new heights. i again loved her instantaneously on the show, she was so DELIGHTFUL in episode 4 i fell completely in love with her all over again. the change to her age and backstory adds a whole new dimension to her character, and the acknowledgement of how her predicament affects her love life is soooo horrifying and tragic. episode 4 remains my favorite of the series, i feel like it’s such a complete arc contained in a single episode for her and i love it so much. i adore how bailey played her, her acting is phenomenal ESPECIALLY in her “who am i supposed to love” monologue, the change from her innocent childlike personality to the angst-driven teen to the bitter adult is fucking exquisite, i want everyone to award her for her work it’s better than 90% of performances i’ve seen this year. the relationship between her and louis in this adaptation is sacred, this complicated dynamic from parent-child to brother-sister and then even further where she ends up almost parenting him is so fascinating and disturbing and bittersweet and i tear up if i think about them too hard. my only qualm is i feel she deserved to stab lestat 90000 times more in this version but alas it was not to be. as for book claudia my impression is pretty much the same except that i LOVE her ghost hallucination appearance in body thief i think she should haunt lestat every day of his life and in hell too!
favorite moment: like i said above “who am i supposed to love” brings me to tears every time. also when she mocks lestat choking on his blood fjdksk and in the book “i’ll put you in your coffin father” is the most iconic line i WISH they kept it in
idea for a story: madeleine being the same age and them having a romance is something i’ve wanted for a year now, it’s probably not going to happen in the show given the actress playing maddie’s age but i’d still love to see it in a fic
unpopular opinion: in the book, i feel people get caught up in whether claudia was morally right in killing lestat, and to me, it’s more about how it was an act for HER. she did it for Herself, no one else. it doesn’t matter whether she was right or wrong to do it. she needed to be free of him. in the show, i think she should have killed even more innocent people :)))))) fill up the river with bodies babe drown out the pain ur doing great
favorite relationship: non romantic relationship in the book is her and lestat, and in the show it’s her and louis!
favorite headcanon: she is a LESBIAN

Yeah gender is fake. I am glad people are starting to realize.
Now please start connecting the dots and see that gender is a set of rules made to keep women and girls small and subservient. Please work w radfems to tear it down. No child should ever be told they are playing with a “girl/boy” toy again
I don't get terfs though. I don't.
I know you probably are one, bc you've been stalking my blog for weeks.
How could you claim to be a feminist then uphold this idea that biology matters more than anything else?
Insist that men trying to be women are demeaning themselves in the process?
Or that they must be doing it for amoral reasons?
Isn't that just ragging on feminism too?
Biology is not destiny. Feminism broken down to its roots should destroy the idea that sex and gender are so fundamental to who we are.
You should be able to break that boundary. It's so bizarre how terfs have embraced this patriarchal idea of gender to enforce this idea that women are women and men are men.
A woman is whatever you want it to be.
A tomboy, a butch lesbian, a high femme, a she/they enby, a trans woman.
Femininity is a construct that can be remade however we see fit.
Why the fuck is it so hard for terfs to be accepting?
Why the fuck is it so wrong for a "man" to want to be a woman or a "woman" to want to be a man?
Why isn't that fluidity allowed?? What is your problem with it???
I can't imagine why a terf would think any trans woman is somehow evil without them just being a fucking bigot.
You don't know every single trans person.
You also don't know every single "man" either.
Too many of them think trans women are just men trying to steal their experiences or are predators in the making.
Those man hating ideas are precisely why you're a fucking laughing stock.
You really want to kill all men because they're all rapists and dogs that need controlling?
Please. Congrats on not understanding how the world works. And never meeting another human fucking being.
And upholding yet another sexist idea that men are just violent lustful sinners who don't want anything else in the world but to fuck you.
That's horrible.
Misogyny is horrible too of course. But it's a snake eating itself, trying to go the opposite way and say well all men-
All people are different, you pathetic shrivelling worm.
All people live by social systems we taught each other, but they could be changed if we wanted.
And that change starts from the ground up.
You fucking terfs have been ragging on me for weeks and sending me angry anons.
First off ive been here for 9 years, almost 10.
You don't scare or upset me. I'm used to anon hate.
Secondly, I'm not a fucking freak like you. I'm perpetually online but unlike you, I choose to give people the benefit of the doubt.
My mom raised me to try and feel compassion for everyone, even people who are different than me. To try and understand the suffering of others. To live in another person's shoes and appreciate a pain other than my own.
You are never going to convince me to hate any group of people based entirely on stereotypes and fiery rhetoric constructed by fucking fascists.
You'll never convince me to hurt a minority with a high suicide rate and the likehood to never make it past 30.
A minority which started the whole fucking LGBT movement.
I identify as nonbinary but I feel a kindred spirit with trans people because I've spent my whole life uncomfortable with certain pronouns too.
It was such a relief finding friends willing to call me by the right name.
The right pronouns.
I know what it's like to feel just a little of that disconnect. That discomfort.
Feeling like your insides don't match your outsides and that society is calling you the wrong thing, every day. And wishing it were different. Kinder. More accepting.
And even if I fucking didn't understand that.
You'll never turn me as cruel as you.
You fucking terf rats.
I've rambled too long so I'll just leave you the most essential message of this ramble, eloquently put, by Hozier.

1270 for the ask game :O
the final song.....
5AM - Amber Run
“are you even happy here, mari?”
it’s the first thing luz has said all day, which is, you know, not great, but really the only person luz talks to these days is hunter, so, like, whatever. her friends are off building the portal home and she is at human school and mari is stuck-small and that is. fine. she’s not bitter about it. at all.
somewhere mari cannot hear, she bites out, i wish i could just leave you behind.
but in the here and now mari is lifting her tiny hummingbird head. her heart is a flutter and luz sometimes thinks it could be crushed so easily, like lizard crushed them so easily, like every single form they have had to control themself into has crushed, and crushed, and mari doesn’t even seem to care. what is luz about to learn in human school that she can’t learn at hexside? human history?
mari says nothing to her. this isn’t new. oftentimes mari says nothing to her. luz can count on one hand the conversations they’ve have across the past month. she’s talked to vee more times than she’s talked to her own daemon, and she tries not to talk to vee, because everytime they do it devolves, inevitably, into argument.
mari says, “does it matter? we’re doing what we need to.”
i think need to is going to kill us, luz doesn’t say aloud.
instead she continues to stare out the classroom window, as if maybe, one day, the view might change into something like home.
Commentary
lowkey this song was like, way too depressing for where i'm at with this au, actually dknfdg since i'm done we're PAST all the sad stuff!! for the most part!! but the song Demands sorrow on vibes alone so we get something taking place during thanks to them!
luz and mari do indeed go to human school for a while! nobody is happy about this!! nobody wants this!! what the fuck!!
i can't say much 'cause i'd rather wait for thanks to them itself to be posted lol, so uhhh return in like two years i guess <3 but basically luzmari spend most of that fic Going Through It, and nobody is happy, and nobody is healthy, and literally everyone around them can see and tell but luzmari refuse to listen to anybody at this point because they are both separately convinced they've figured it all out (they have figured out nothing at all)
#and a grove of palistrom to you#toh#luz noceda#they'll make it. one day#not today but DONT WORRY#we get a happy ending lol imagine if i just said nah. everything sucks forever#ttt is A Time tho like jeez this kid/s is doing BAD

I'm gonna ask for a character too! Who?
My girl Akiza! :)
ooh very gladly, one portion of thoughts on aki coming right up! (disclaimer: i’ve watched up to 80 eps of 5ds until now, so that’s the scope of my opinions)
how i feel about this character: if my tumblr layout wasn’t enough of a hint, i really love aki. she’s definitely the best love interest in ygo, both in terms of my personal favs (though asuka and yuzu are neat too) and, like, objectively (as in best written, most complex). she’s got some great tropes in her character, fantastic intro and development and her relationship with yusei makes me tear up at every duel they play. also her design and deck make-up are just >>>
all the people i ship romantically with this character: yusei. i’m so glad this is a canon ship because this content brings me undue amounts of happiness. the start of their relation was what particularly hit me, with their initial duel and the one in the hospital, then how he consoled her after the whole thing with divine, taught her to ride a d-wheel (built one for her??) — yusei’s as precious as can be and she deserved someone like that so bad. as an optional no. 2 in this short list i’d put sherry — their ship appeals to me far less, but, y’know, lesbians on motorcycles. i’m a weak human sometimes.
non-romantic OTP: hmm. actually, i feel like aki has little to no relationships apart the one with yusei — she was deliberately isolated from others by divine, then when he died yusei seems to be the only one she really trusts. crow and jack appear really distant from her, although they are friendly towards one another — it struck me when crow specifically mentioned how aki hangs out with the signers not so frequently and i just get the impression she doesn’t fully consider them as her friends. i’d put sherry here because they’d have a nice vibe also as besties on motorcycles and also maybe rua and ruka? aki taking care of them is really nice and though, of course, they won’t be her friends the way a person her age would be, it’s still a good relationship.
unpopular opinion about this character: i wrote that i like the make-up of her deck, so, to clarify: black rose dragon is just great and the overall aesthetic of the cards fits her perfectly, but the way it’s constructed, game-wise, is absolutely garbage. why does she have a plant based deck and plant effects for a non-plant ace? why are her best tuners suited to a different star rating than 7? why does she not have cards that would alleviate black rose’s self destruction? i play rose dragons in duel links and it makes me just livid how stupidly this all was planned out because it doesn’t make sense even with adjustments that konami introduced later — and, consequently, they’re making her play some really bad duels in the show. i mean, she could be so damn strong if they admitted her some properly designed cards? i get that she’s one of the more powerful love interests anyway, but, come on, asuka could have gotten a playable deck and not aki?
also idk if that’s unpopular, but i want to say it: she’s probably the only character in the whole series whose psychic powers feel justified and make sense. they have more downsides than anything else, but they’re still ironed out into a real strength in the end, they add a lot to character, her personality is built accordingly, everything clicks together.
one thing i wish would happen/had happened with this character in canon: apart from giving her a better deck and a chance to kick some ass with that? definitely a better ending to her relationship with divine. yeah, he was a toxic, manipulative bastard who fucked her up bad in the head, but he was the single most important person in her life for so long (if not forever, before yusei) that randomly killing him off feels so unsatisfying. let her defeat him in a duel? let her break free of him on her own? the guy caused her so much trauma, she should have had the chance to overcome that (and him) on her own, instead of such a bland resolution.

My thoughts on LB6 (Arc 1)
My personal thoughts on Lostbelt 6 so far as I have been timegated and am so fucking hyped to see it come to fruition. I just wanted to collect my thoughts on it in a post. Apologies for lack of images I am doing this at 2AM and I need to get my feelings down.
From start to finish, I have been *very* into fucking world building, to the point where it is its only surpassed by its amazing character arcs! But regardless, I think the writers made a really good intro to suck you in first that makes you excited to be along for the ride.
The very first meeting you get of Fairy Britain is of rapscallion exiles who don’t have anything left to lose and are practically cockroaches of society. Even so they try their best to live out the rest of their lives, even if they cut it short themselves with the introduction of a human. Honestly, I wouldn’t be surprised if that was a metaphor for all of Fairy Britain: a peaceful land eventually doomed to fail but with the introduction of one human cascades into an even worse fate filled with pain and suffering.
I also love how differing area’s have differing politics on humans and what to do with them. Camelot and Salisbury seem intent to control humans, even if Salisbury’s leader thinks differently. (Hell, the disconnect is so much that I’m almost suspicious.) Norwich and Sheffield practically have fairies and humans side by side, although both of which is primarily motivated by an oncoming disaster. And then Gloucester is willfully feigning ignorance with neutrality, knowing that the only thing that matters is commerce. If you’re human, you’re a slave. A pet. A comrade in arms. A bargaining chip. And someone sticking through a disaster together with people.
Plus the introductions of various faeries make the world so much more lively. Especially the river fairies who lure people in with their wishes. That one in particular was really cool and made for a really good comedy bit.
And then the characters. GOD the characters. Every single main character has made a lasting impression on me, whether it be cool or immense, but intended, hatred. I especially love Castoria being fated to be this great hero but is the equivalent of throwing molotov cocktails at people. Also, at some point I noticed I didn’t know why Castoria was in the Amnesia Forest. Hm. I wonder if this is related to the crippling imposter syndrome she has over the entire Child of Prophecy thing and that it seemed like she let her entire hometown die. Sure would be bad if she tried to drown herself in amnesia so she could go back to being a regular hick! Regardless I will hype her up as much as possible and will kill everyone else in the room if they don’t cheer.
Anyways, moving on from Castoria, this is also very clearly supposed to be Mash’s time to shine and it fucking *shows*. Taking her away from Ritsuka and giving her own role to develop is so cool to see. Her absence is tangible, especially since she’s Ritsuka’s rock and they literally cannot keep themself in check without her as a support. Regardless, putting her with the scum of the earth (who aren’t true scum, just a little misguided and don’t know how to act) and making her still defend them at all costs is so good. She *is* a hero, a knight, Galahad’s very own Tam Lin to shield all that comes the way. It’s so satisfying to see her build herself back up and have something to stand for as Mash and not Chadea’s Demi-servant. (Also, I very much appreciate the buffs. Especially the np gain so i can fucking loop her np.)
And the fucking meetup with her and Ritsuka is SO FUCKING HYPE. Ritsuka, willing their command seals back (probably by sacrificing their of life force just to defy fate, i don’t think letting them know that was a thing they could do was a good idea) to triple boost a Lord Camelot is just. Fucking Incredible. Also giving THEM a monolouge not influenced by the player hit me so fucking hard because for once Ritsuka doesn’t feel like an insert MC. They’re a fully fledged maniac of their own and above everything they want to save their beloved Mash and the rest of Britain. (Granted, they never were just an insert, especially during lostbelt arc, but this takes it to a new level) And it makes it hurt all the more when Mash is taken away to Morgan. But also not to a point where the other Tam Lin know about her, at least Tristan. Very fascinating to me. Still satisfying to watch the hope drain from Guda’s eyes as their sanity plummets.
On the account of Oberon, I like him but sadly don’t have much to say about him expect REALLY loving his art and the writers making great stuff with his humor. Regardless, I like that he tries to care for Guda in his own way. Same thing with Muramasa, but with the added part of liking his like. Strict Grandpa relationship with the cast, with a soft spot for Artoria.
Comedy is also been top notch. From being owned by Artoria (which she seems a *wee* bit too excited by) to buying the Child of Prophecy (30% Chance), the writers hit home with nearly everyone. Plus, it helps a lot with getting some relief, especially after heavy hitters like the fall of Sheffield due to the Black Barrel and the loss of Tristan.
All and all, this is by far my favorite chapter by a mile. I returned from a long ass hiatus just to sink my teeth into this and by god it delivered. Glad, I came back. And, while i was mainly trying to save for someone else later… I couldn’t help myself bringing home someone who I’m told is very good!
Till our next meeting, King of the Lostbelt! I hope you’re as good as people tell!
#lb6 spoilers#lb6 liveblog#granted#one person I follow is the one who conviced me of returning#through VERY good fan-fiction#but honestly I gotta thank em for it#this is the most i think i’ve enjoyed this game since gudaguda 4

Doing raids today, waiting forever in queue because I just want to dps and don't feel like tanking, thinking FF14 thoughts while I wait.
I'm at the halfway mark, and of the Final Fantasy games I've played, I would currently rank FFXIV as 5th.
Mostly because every single thing in Heavensward was tailor made for specifically me, repeatedly slamming the joy buzzer in my brain like a fucking quick time event.
I don't know if it's possible for this game to land in the top 3 for me; 6, 7, and 12 are too deeply ingrained in my psyche. But 10 is largely coasting on nostalgia, so... here's a hopes post of what I think 14 could deliver on to make it my 4th favorite.
Step 1: make the adult Scions more interesting, present, and fucking matter. A solid main cast is fucking required for a good Final Fantasy game, it's why I love 12 specifically as much as I do, it's a small but solid cast of characters who all go on satisfying arcs. The Scions would be the weakest element here if not for the twins. I joked that I thought Lyse would surely have to die now that she was fun and interesting, and then they literally wrote her out of the Scions. They already felt like a useless brunch club with how much more effective things became once it was just the WoL and Alphinaud, so the narrative repeatedly faking out killing them to excuse their absence and inaction is getting cheap. I get that they wanted to make the PC front and center in ARR and the expansion characters the focus as they're introduced. Unfortunately, it means there's no point to the Scions being here until we need them to clumsily pull lore out of their asses when it's immediately relevant. In between that they're comatose, missing, or presumed dead. If they're only gonna be here for plot contrived nonsense and not have personal goals, then at least spice up their personalities. Make Urianger weirder, Y'shtola meaner, and Thancred more pathetic. It's fine if they're forgettable and static if they're supporting characters, god knows Biggs or Slaffborn ain't nobody's blorbo, but the narrative treats them with the weight of main cast which... no...
Step 2: STOP. USING. RAPE. AS. SET DRESSING. This is an easy one! Maybe the story about evil darkness worshiping bad guys who want to blow up the moon or whatever other JRPG nonsense logic they're following is not a mature enough story to respectfully resolve plot elements like human fucking trafficking!
Step 3: More interesting villains. This really helps solidify 6 and 7 with being as iconic as they are and is the one I'm most hopeful for going forward. Solus is a campy nihilist and Zenos has NO setting on the dial between 1 and 11, they're so fun. Many of Solus' comments have me hopeful that his apparent bitchy disdain for the other Ascians will mean we get to finally see them have personalities and different goals and agendas. Even just temporary antagonists and not necessarily villains, like Ysayle and then later Fordolla, are getting more compelling and complicated. That's rad, more of that, less of Yotsuyu because again, check Step 2!
That's it! That's all it will take to be my 4th favorite Final Fantasy game! Heavensward and just how FUN the gameplay is and how pretty the world are have done enough for me to forgive a LOT. I have other ideas for steps they could take that would make me happier and rank it higher, but I'm not gonna delude myself into asking for better/more brown and/or queer characters, that's a monkey's paw wish and I ain't kicking that football.
So yeah, the bar is... low! Can they reach it?

Makima for the character ask game?
I am being thrown my favorite enrichment toy, ty!!
favorite thing about them This is so fucking difficult but uhhhhhh I am going to pick that my favorite thing about her is how her apartment is sparsely decorated, devoid of any personal taste or aesthetic, except for a single painting we see in a single panel:
the symbolism. the everything. god. yes. YES.
least favorite thing about them
I think the specific terminology of her calling herself a "fan" of Chainsaw Man is hokey. I really wish they used some more fun terms in conjunction with that so we could get a better idea of the breadth of her faith and their relationship.
favorite line
"The sixth sense that every human used to have… the light of a certain star in the sky that drove children mad… the four other possibilities other than death that existed for a living being that reached the end of its lifespan… they have all disappeared and can no longer be remembered now. But I can still see the image of Chainsaw Man fighting those demons."
Very easy to pick, only had to scramble for a minute to pull up the page cause I have it saved everywhere. The coolest piece of writing in the whole of the manga and such a profound and haunting look into Makima's mind. She IS the haunted house she's trapped in!!
brOTP
I really really like whatever fucked up respect she has for Kishibe! I really like how she never truly lied or plotted against him, though she was obviously aware he was plotting against everything she built. I think she genuinely enjoyed having him around (while he was useful...)
OTP
In typical Tali fashion, the REAL OTP is my oc Ahashi and Makima dying hand in unlovable hand together. But I actually think folk who ship her with Quanxi are INCREDIBLY powerful chads and people who write Makima as a repressed lesbian especially with that ship? Chefs kiss. Not my headcanon but delectable.
nOTP
Thankfully I don't need to be unpopular here 'cause the answer is Makima/Denji in any form or fashion
random headcanon
Her coffee shop orders are incredibly high maintenance as she only wants very particular tea and coffee blends but she is a loyal and dedicated regular so she is treated a bit like royalty.
unpopular opinion
Makima is a multifaceted character with multiple motivations and goals she keeps juggling one atop another- her desire to control, her desire to indulge in sadism, her desire to forward the future, her desire to obtain the heart of Chainsaw Man- and all of them are subconsciously acting in service of her most long buried desire to find someone she can form a genuine bond with.
song i associate with them
I do have a playlist for her but I'll throw in a deep cut that isn't on there: I Felt Younger When We Met by Waterparks
I've never seen a face with your type of shine You moved in behind my eyes and built yourself a shrine But then you ran away And you left the picture frames Now I don't see my face the same
hey as I was writing this, I learned my animated Makima wallpaper fucking syncs with my SPOTIFY MUSIC and this bitch started flashing her eyes at me in the rhythm to the bass as I hit play on the song and I thought I was actually going to be killed
favorite picture of them
I'm gonna pick 3 that I think can qualify as my top picks but god this fandom is just overflowing with the most incredible depictions of Makima...
The first image by Blankk on Twitter, the second by Alysius here on Tumblr, and the third by tumblr user Nathan!
(makima drawn by a lesbian, makima drawn divine, and makima drawn like a horror movie monster. PERFECT)
oh and my favorite canon image? probably the double-whammy that was this page:
her in the ocean is so iconic, the dress, the head tilt, the smirk, followed by that GORGEOUS portrait of her getting shot, her expression, the way her hair moves, her fucking eyes, hrrrgdfhdfhd

Hellsite Nostalgia Tour 2023 Day 42
Hollywood Babylon/The Idiot's Lantern
"Hollywood Babylon"
Would I Survive the First Five Minutes??: These people are definitely actors...and I mean that the characters are actors, and bad ones at that. Well, I'm not on a film crew, so I guess??
Dean. ARen't you waNTed bY The FBI??? Why are we on a studio lot tour???? Though the "maybe we'll see one of the stars of Gilmore Girls" from the studio tour guide was well placed.
What if this was the genesis of Matt Damon getting bit roles as a surprise? Like, not that he's actually IN this episode but he gets mentioned...he could still be in this episode, honestly. There's like 35 minutes left
You know, maybe the Dean from Sam's memories in Tall Tales wasn't completely inaccurate. He's quite literally stuffing his face with the sandwiches at craft services...which, I can't blame him for, but it's still funny
OMG Dean geeking out about bit actors in movies is adorable
Ugh, is this the kind of thing my brother has to put up with?? Like, when Dick Wolf actually goes to Chicago to check up on things, is he that controlling and...what's the word, genre ignorant?
Dean is SO into this. He's fully embraced life on set, and I couldn't be happier for him. Wish he could always be this happy...
Man, I bet the director is next...he's not makin it out alive or he's the one that the boys actually save.
...I don't like being wrong, guys, especially so soon after making the prediction. The other writer was the one they end up saving from the original writer
OH GOD. THE WAY THEY OF COURSE ADDED WHAT JUST HAPPENED INTO THE MOVIE.
"Been On My Mind...": (Prediction: nothing. Bet Sam's still reeling from having to kill the last girl he slept with) 0 for 2 today. Look at you, Dean. This has gotta be one of the best stretches of days he's had.
"The Idiot's Lantern"
And now we move from movies to TV. It's weird how they keep doing this...
Should I have started with this one? Because after watching spn, it does feel weird to watch them mock me for having watched TV whereas I could have watched spn in defiance of them mocking me
Omg...I love tenrose. They're so cute.
What a year to be doing this rewatch, what with this episode focusing on Elizabeth's coronation. Would have been mildly funnier last year, but I wouldn't have KNOWN at this point last year.
Oh fuck. I forgot how terrible this guy is.
The angles they sometimes shoot from are...baffling. They're all off kilter, and for what purpose??
This family is about to learn Baby's First Feminism.
Okay but what do these aliens have on this guy? Because right now it feels like some trolley problem shit. If the...if the alien in the television is hungry and needs whatever it's getting from humans to live, but then those humans get rounded up and put in pens after their faces disappear. No, it's NOT like the trolley problem because the person the trolley would hit if you flip the switch isn't actively harming the other five. So the must have SOMETHING on Mr Magpie because otherwise he's just some guy.
Going FERAL over Ten saying there's not a power on this earth that can stop him [from saving Rose and everyone else but mostly Rose].
I hope Rita gets a fucking divorce and keeps the house or sells it, whatever she wants. This man is...fucking disgusting. HELL YEAH RITA!!!! GET THAT DIVORCE, GIRL!!!
Is it really so boring as "she let me keep my face" that Mr Magpie betrayed every single person on earth?? And then to die for all that...not heroically, begging.
Oh, Rita. Good for you. Standing up for yourself, your son, and your mother.
