#I'm too close to this I cant

[inkstainedhandswithrings]

okay ik there's no context for this bc I've never posted abt this on my blog but I NEED TO YELL ABOUT SOME THINGS

So I've been watching Chicago Med, right? And you know, there's this really great dude on that show, his characters name is Dr. Crockett Marcel, right?

(LOOK AT HIM <33)

AND I JUST WANNA KNOW how is it, that after everything he did for Natalie, opened up to her, changed for her, fought for her mothers life on more than one occasion, all the while she was shutting him out and being unfair to him and lying to him that when she LEAVES. WHEN SHE MOVES TO ANOTHER STATE OR WHATEVER. WILL IS THE ONE WHO'S HELPING HER MOVE????

I'm sorry, I never loved Nat and Will, not together and not as individual characters but DAMN IT CROCKETT WAS FINALLY HAPPY???

But I just don't get it, why was Will helping her move?? The last time those two dated was like 1 or 2 Seasons ago and Nat and Crockett, who, as far as I can tell, never actually broke up on screen??? don't get a goodbye??? hello??? someone give this man a BREAK OKAY???

AND THEN, AND THEN!!! when season 8 wraps up (spoiler spoiler spoiler) , suddenly Nat and Will are??? back together?? and them breaking up and being toxic and all that just??? never comes up??? nor does the fact that Nat was last with Crockett ever come up??? and I'm like???

Listen, I just have a lot of feelings abt Crockett Marcel, he seems like such a good, genuine, sweet guy, who's just had a really rough life and I just wanna GIVE HIM A HUG OKAY??? (am I gonna come back on here to talk abt him soon? yes there's a high likelyhood of that okay, I love him a lot he's great)

probably deleting this later and it's not like anyone following me actually gives a shit but most of the characters I grow obsessed with end up being men because the archetype and character traits I'm obsessed with are more often than not applied to men in the fiction that ends up infecting my brain, and not because I. hate women. sometimes you can rightly say people unfairly make up backstories and shit for underdeveloped male characters and ignore the underdeveloped female characters but I promise it has nothing to do with internalized misogyny for me, it's just me chasing after whichever character fits my favored description the most, even if it's grains of sand I have to work with. genuinely if you know of media with women who are.... hm... idk if I can describe this. cold, competent, and rational and are care way too much about the rules and have a deeply fucked up relationship with an authority figure in their lives that heavily affects their actions PLEASE let me know so I can read/watch it

I've been playing Phantom Hourglass for the first time, and I think one of my favorite parts about it is that you can actually fight the phantoms. If you're getting chased down and know you can't get away, you can turn around and swing your sword at them, and it works. They flinch and block you with their shield- no damage is dealt and you have to keep swinging nonstop to keep them from hitting you- the moment you stop you're almost definitely dead. But the fact that you can actually look at these terrifying, massive, unkillable wardens, stop running and decide "No, I ain't dying here", and physically fight back against them and it can actually work if you just barely manage to slip away at the perfect moment- it's just SO fucking cool to me.

Scrappy little bastard, this kid.

thinking about my au where after the trial the dads are actually just transported into another universe where jodie was transplanted and they replaced their alt-universe selves.

so there are small details that the kids notice (except for nicholas) that are kinda... off, but it's not big enough of a shift to notice until reminiscing about childhood memories and like it doesn't matter (it does matter but that's only half of the story)

point is that without them, their home universe kinda crumbles, as the narrative is about Them and why even exist if there's no purpose? so everyone kinda just fades away over a short span of time (thinking around a week) as the world loses its flavor.

....buuuut nick's still there.

because the dads are The Dads, right. it's their defining characteristic. they need to have children to be dads (if the child is dead it doesn't matter, just needs to exist in the universe). the children are... kind of like anchors.

so if their children stopped existing, what then? well, it was a simple solution-- they got linked to the new verse kids. done done. new anchor, continued existence, "forever" relevance, hoorah.

only problem is that glenn doesn't have a kid. and he's not a dad anymore. so like, what's the point of his being there? nicholas is technically completely unrelated to him. in the new verse, it's said that he's darryl's friend who's just. there. in-auniverse and in a more meta concept sense, he really shouldn't have been there.

(eventually, glenn won't need an anchor anymore because of the relationship he develops with nicky but for now he needs a weight to assert his existence in the narrative)

erasing him from existence kind of goes against the court ruling because then why all the shenanigans. so he still has an anchor, though the new universe is unaware of it

so nick is still there.

nick is... not fully what he used to be. he seems overall the same, but he's in a sort of... stasis? like the most obvious effect is not aging but there are mental effects too. his and glenn's relationship and place in the world can't really change, so he doesn't.

he's like an ice sculpture now metaphorically-- fading like the rest of the world, but his process is slower because he's connected to glenn and he's still important to the story. he has approximately until the s1 finale until he starts getting into the danger zone. the worlds aren't exactly synced up time-wise, but time shifts and flows and the universes drift so there's never a concrete ratio-- usually worlds sync by story beat but. yea

so he's just wandering the world as it breaks apart. he's the only reason that it's still there, actually-- it becomes weaker as he does, as it loses its purpose completely.

by some chance, nicholas manages to contact nick then Stuff Happens.

cue shenanigans, primarily with nicholas and nick but several other people come into play too like glenn and jodie and morgan

(yes nick still dies in the end but there is Closure with the family okay. can't spell closure without close. do you get it)
