#Psychic Violence

[lookingatmyself]

I grew up in a tiny version of hell called the suburbs and experienced the Universe of the Neatly Clipped Lawn. This is a place where anything and everything can and does take place and events such as torture, starvation, humilia-tion, physical and psychic violence can take place uncontested by others, as long as it doesn't stray across the boundaries and borders as formed by the deed-holder inhabiting the house on the neatly clipped lawn. If the violence is contained within the borders of the lawn and does not mess up the real estate in any way that would cause the surrounding properties devaluation, anything is possible and everything permissible.

Chat, I regret to inform you that I have added a new hyperfixation…so…

Agatha All Along Incorrect Quotes!

Alice: Hold the fuck up.

Also Alice, crawling into Lilia’s lap: It’s me. I’m the fuck up. Hold me.

Rio: I have an idea!

Jen: No murder.

Rio, sighing petulantly: I no longer have an idea.

Lilia: I have a bad feeling about this…

Agatha: What do you mean?

Alice: Don’t you ever get that little voice in the back of your head that tells you if something is going to get you in trouble?

Agatha: No.

Jen: That actually explains so much.

Lilia: As far back as I can remember, I’ve always had this little voice in my head telling me to “live it up today, because there’s not gonna be a lot of tomorrows”.

Agatha: You do realize there’s medication designed to get rid of those kinds of voices, right?

Teen: A bird flew in through my window and I’m trying to befriend it.

*later*

Agatha: Why don’t you quit bothering me and go talk to your bird friend?

Teen: Matthew and I are not speaking at the moment.

*the coven, huddling together behind a makeshift shelter to shield themselves from repeated gunshots*

Alice, hastily shoving the others behind her so she can return fire: Agatha, do you have any idea who would want to shoot you?!

Agatha, squashed between Jen and Rio: Many people want to shoot me. I take great pride in that!

Jen, glaring at the group as she hands over bail money:

Alice, tapping her shoulder: What about Teen?

Jen, glaring more: I’ve got to bail him out too? Where’s Agatha?

Teen: No one called her. We used Lilia’s phone call to call Alice and Rio’s to call you. Then Rio used my phone call to vote for American Idol.

Rio: :)

Jen: Rio isn’t answering her phone.

Agatha: Here, I’ll try.

Jen: Alice and I have tried six times each, what makes you think that-

Rio, picking up on the first ring: Hey, sweetheart.

Agatha: The ends always justify the means!

Jen: Do you know who said that?

Agatha: Was it Oprah or someone nice and great like that?

Jen: It was Machiavelli. A decidedly non-Oprah like person.

Jen: I bet you didn’t even finish the thing I asked you to get done!

Agatha: For your information, I most certainly did! Got it done last night!

Teen, whispering to Agatha: You didn’t get it done, did you?

Agatha, whispering back: I don’t even know what she’s talking about.

Lilia: I am at a loss for words!

Teen, glancing at the camera like his mom like he’s on The Office: Despite being lost for words, Lilia yelled at us for the next 45 minutes.

Agatha, carrying Señor Scratchy out of the room:

Señor Scratchy: *snuggles under her chin*

Agatha, kissing his head: You are being punished. Please stop being adorable. I love you.

Teen: I got a trampoline tent for summer sleepovers!

Jen, whispering to the other adult witches: …think of all the sex.

Alice: There are two types of people.

Rio: If you wanted to eat someone, you could put a fire under it and slowly roast them :)

Lilia: …three. Three types of people.

Jen, cautiously: I can’t believe I didn’t notice this before, but…Teen, you are a little crazy.

Teen: Aren’t we all a little crazy here, Jen?

Jen: No, I mean you’re aging-ballerina, child-chess-prodigy, professional magician kind of crazy.

Teen: It’s my mom’s fault. You know, we come from a Jewish family, but she used to tell me the reason Santa didn’t come was because my room was too dirty.

Rio: I’ve come looking for trouble. And if I can’t find trouble, I WILL create some.

Alice: Do you trust me?

Lilia, smiling proudly at her: Yes.

Alice, who has been completely panicking: Wait, what? Why?!

Agatha, awkwardly glancing around for help: Er…Alice, I’m gonna be honest, I don’t know what to say to people who are crying. So I’m just gonna hope that the tone of my voice makes you think I do, okay, sweetie?

Alice, sniffling: …thanks, Agatha.

Agatha, patting her on the back with a bit too much enthusiasm: No problem, kid.

Lilia: I told Agatha about it weeks ago!

Teen: She WHAT?

Agatha: What??? Lilia says insane shit all the time, how was I supposed to know this one was true?!

Lilia: Bank accounts are a sham created by the shadow government!

Agatha: SEE?!

BONUS:

Wanda, watching from the afterlife: so…when exactly do kids grow out of that whole emo, rebellious stage?

Lorna, shrugging: I don’t know. Alice is still in it.

me every time anyone mentions TO

[angelmachines]

i Knowww mp100 has stuff thats more difficult to watch in later seasons (cough. shou and his dad during all of the world domination arc, mogamiland, etc) but the episode that continues to be the most Ruthlessly Brutal to me will aaaalways be episode 5 with mob and teru. theres something unparalleled in seeing a character who is widely beloved and contrasting it with their first appearance and just how Violent it is

i think we all downplay just how cruel teru was which is understandable but the rest of the violence in this show feels fantastical, at least a little, due to the nature of esp but its especially cruel and real watching a (onesided) fight between two fourteen year olds. theyre in middle school! theyre fourteen! its fucked up and horrifying and gruelling-- this is the episode that raises the stakes. the one that says, in a world full of spirits and psychics, how fucked would it be if a kid tried to kill with their bare hands

Do you think Reigen ever interact with toriska (how do you spell his name??)

Yes, actually (He's also the reason Saiki started visiting more)! Of the main cast he is the first to go into Seasoning City, long before Teruhashi does! Due to his psychic abilities and the fact he was raised temple, since he was young his dad put in him places where spirits were. Not in a Klaus Hargreeves way but an 'Ah, my son has psychic abilities with ghosts! It'd be good to make sure he knows what they look like, and he isn't clueless with his powers!' way.

With that in mind, they've visited Seasoning City more than once since the Seasoning City ghosts are very powerful, and it was a way to strengthen his own spiritual abilities (With several talismans and purified salt on hand in case anything went bad)

They met when Reigen was doing a solo job without Mob and Toritsuka was looking for a ghost so he could practice his own abilities. They met and argued for a bit before the spirit appeared. The thing is; Toritsuka can't exorcise ghosts. He did bring salt in case he needed to try, but he can't do it with his powers. So the spirit appeared, but the two were too caught up in bickering to actually do anything to it, so the spirit attempted to attack Reigen since he didn't have an aura.

Fun fact, did you know that the only real qualification to purify something is to have someone religious purify it?

Did you also know that mockingly praying over someone, to show that as a monk you thought they were firmly below you, counts if that person has something on them that can be purified or made holy?

And did you know that Toritsuka, who was raised by a Buddhist monk in a temple is absolutely still counts a religious person that has the clearance to purify something?

That's all the context you need to know when Reigen, on instinct alone, takes his hand out of his pocket (which was full of salt, meaning he now has a handful of salt) and punches the ghost directly in the face, exorcising it.

This is all to say that Toritsuka thinks Reigen is a super powerful psychic (much to Saiki's dismay) and keeps visiting Spirits and Such to try and get the man to be his master (and also to shamelessly stare at Teruhashi).

This is also why Saiki started visiting the place more, though it's less 'Try and become Reigen's student' and more 'Beat the utter shit out of Toritsuka for bothering Teruhashi at her place of work'

trying to gather my thoughts on unruhe. something about this exchange is so vital to me…about how scully maybe isn’t as natural a seeker as mulder. about how her work as a pathologist is focused on “how” rather than “why”…whereas mulder’s profiling is the inverse. a woman is dead and a man killed her and no amount of probing the inner workings of his psyche, his dreams, his nightmares will remedy that situation. discovering the why doesn’t bring about any deeper sense of justice or peace. because really, no why could ever really explain the mundane horror of a woman’s abduction and murder. if anything, it just more starkly reveals the ugly simplicity of the human capacity for cruelty.

but i also love how later, she leans on the why. she channels mulder and his profiler brain. schnauz even picks up on it (“great. now they got you talking like sigmund freud,” in reference to him calling mulder freud during his interrogation). she asks him why he does it. why her. why this. why did his sister kill herself. why did his father do what he did. part of it’s to keep schnauz talking but it’s also another example of how she reaches for him, even metaphorically, in moments of fear and difficulty.

i also love how this episode, with its themes of unrest and strife and trouble, focuses on scully. mulder is usually the more restless character, always searching and seeking and chasing and moving. but scully is just as, if not maybe even more so. her mother’s remaining daughter. her father’s disappointment. a catholic to her bones, even as she lapses. a woman in a man’s job. who imagines a life to be a husband and kids and big sunday dinners, but who can’t stop following the mad man in the basement. who always insists she’s fine, who locks it all away, who chafes and squirms and explodes in impulsive incendiary bursts. who is always always trying.

there are just some things we don’t or can’t look too deeply into. if god is real, or why the woman in front of us is dead. scully will dig and scrape for proof and explanations for many things, but some interrogations aren’t worth the effort, or the fear of what might be found. some things just are, and they’re too big to move or change or overcome. women die because men kill them. what the hell does it matter?
