#I could write a whole ass essay on it

[henryscapon]

like, okay, i'm sure this scene has been talked about and dissected to pieces already in this fandom but. BUT. i need to put my two cents in or i will explode.

so, your lord and best friend has just admitted to you that if you die, he will be so beside himself with grief that he might just die too.

the game then gives you THIS option in response.

and you, the player, know how video games work. you know this is the press x for romance button. you expect henry to admit his feelings—a culmination of all the hints he's dropped from the heart options we've chosen before—and kiss him as soon as the button's been pressed.

except henry doesn't kiss hans.

instead, henry places his hand on hans' hand. it's the first moment of physical contact between them in the whole scene...but it's not a kiss. it's gentle. it's intimate. it's tiptoeing the line between comforting a friend and something more...

...but henry leaves it at that. and he gets up and goes to leave.

and in that moment of panic. in that split second of 'this might be the last time i'll ever see you again, please don't go' — it's hans that kisses henry.

and it's henry who pushes hans away.

this is—for all intents and purposes—the opposite of what we, the player, chose.

and to add insult to injury, henry looks conflicted.

he looks SO conflicted that hans believes he's fucked up royally.

that he has completely tarnished their final moments together by acting on impulse—by giving into temptation and desperation and feelings he can't even put into his own words—and henry must be disgusted by him.

and hans believes this because he watches henry turn his back to him. refusing to look at him. and head for the door.

but henry stops before he opens it. and i keep thinking back to the heart option we chose.

the player is not making the choice for henry to kiss hans. we are not forcing his hand.

the player is reminding henry what he's been telling himself throughout the entire game.

don't run away, henry.

kiss him. kiss him back.

so henry does.

This is I think one of the more underrated panels with them, but it's one of my favourites. The domesticity, how comfortable and intimate they are with each other, how they talk about their plans for the day, all the touches between them, their kiss, their goodbye... One could tell me they are a married couple and I'd absolutely believe it because they act exactly like one 🥹💞

If Alchoholic Kai is still a headcanon then my guy is definitely getting a drink after Ninjago Monstrosity.

Did you guys notice how in all the FaceTime scenes between Buck and Eddie in the last episode not once did Eddie ask Buck how he was doing?

I understand the episode was Eddie focused, don't get me wrong (and im glad they're finally doing it). But once again, their friendship feels based on how can Buck be of service to Eddie? He's the sounding board, the one giving support and advice and reassurance and solutions to Eddie's problems 😤

And yes, I'm still mad about the fact that no one, not even alleged-best-friend Eddie, was there for Buck when Maddie was missing

I wonder if the writers are even aware of just how one-sided they keep writing their friendship 🤔🙄

something something foils moving in opposite directions Goku's always happy to seek and fight stronger opponents because he spent most of his life being the strongest guy in the room and Vegeta wants to be the strongest/is always exhausted to find stronger opponents because he spent most of his life having to navigate his survival around the whims of the strongest guy in the universe room and so Goku has a foundation of safety and stability and so spends his time craving challenge and adventure and Vegeta has a foundation of challenge and adventure and spends his time craving safety and stability and the overlaid section of their venn diagram is that the only way they know how acquire and maintain those things is through battle

hi! two questions. 1) have you played monster hunter wilds and 2) if so, is it worth playing?

1. i have not played the full game, though i did play the beta back in february!

2. I personally have chosen to hold off for now, at least until all title updates are released. the game has some pretty serious issues right now, primarily with optimization, UI, and gameplay balancing. That's kinda par for the course with modern monhun (sadly). Thankfully the MH team has a good track record with addressing feedback so it's only a matter of time to see adjustments made.

It's up to you! If you like what you see from trailers and gameplay videos and you don't mind the price point then go for it :D

hello you lovely lot <3

first of all is the usual apologies. i submitted my second assignment a few days ago for uni. i should get my marks back by christmas eve, apparently! which is good because we weren't expecting until like next year. anyway. the last few weeks of doing nutrition have been absolute hell and literally for most of this week i'd been up to stupid o'clock trying to finish the damn thing.

anyway, i'm now a week behind on studies which is fun. but there's a 2 week break for christmas coming up, so i plan on catching up then. i had a few nights of just lying in bed watching tv and now i'm back at my desk trying to work on things.

i can only profusely apologise for disappearing for what feels like forever again. i am just always grateful that you're all still willing to write with me and for that i can't thank you guys enough. that being said, i would completely understand if people don't because of how slow i am, that's okay :) and i've ghosted everyone for months probably because i just have 0 energy. but that could be the b12 deficiency i need retesting that haven't had chance to yet

phew. that a mouthful!!! anyway. i'm here, i'm lurking. probs won't get a lot done but i will try :) i'm at my desk where i like the clippyclappy keyboard. just gotta get some inspo so might look on pinterest or reread threads/our ship tags/etc. i just feel like i've been gone so long that my writing is so bad (not that it ever was brilliant to begin with omg) but i haven't written creatively in ages and dlgjslgasdg

i still have memes from like over a year ago. so i might give some of those a whirl to get those juices flowinggggg~ even though the inbox is full, you're more than welcome to send more. i hoard them until you forget you've sent them and when the inspo hits, i love to surprise yous hehehe.

anyway! much love! love you all so much. i hope in 2025 i will be more consistent. anyway, i've been saying that for years and it hasn't happened. but i just wanted you to know that this is me trying <3 at least i'm trying!

hope you're all doing well! much love to you all xxxx

Is anyone else sad about Entry #76? Anyone else sad about the way that Alex apologized to Jessica before he tried to shoot her? Anyone else crying about how he spent the entire time telling her that it was going to be ok, he was going to explain everything once they got out of there? Anyone else feel physically ill about how even though Alex was going to kill Jessica and it didn’t matter at that point he still warned her to be careful on the rocks? Anyone else sobbing at how Alex made Jessica go on ahead of him, so she wouldn’t know what was coming until it was too late? Anyone else emotionally devastated thinking about how Alex looked away right before he was going to shoot her?

The more I think about Entry #76 the sadder I get.

Reverting back into my annual Harry Potter phase and re-reading all the books has got me thinking:

Neil Perry is 100% a Slytherin and Todd Anderson would be his Gryffindor BF

G.I.N.A.S.F.S by Fall Out Boy has been my favourite song for YEARS. It's so cute and gay and romantic, and i had a realisation while listening to it when walking my dog that it is SO BUDDIE CODED. It's such a good song for them, I need to write a fic about it.

In the meantime, I was going to write down the lyrics that I thought fit them, but i was practically writing the whole song so.... just listen !!

[I like to imagine it's from Eddie's POV]
