#i have thoughts about them reportedly killing her young that i wish i had the vocabulary to articulate#even if there is a redemptive angle which i think there will be#im tired of pretending like immense sacrifice at the cost of 40 more years of happiness is in any way a compelling or interesting ending#especially for korra who was essentially repeatedly brutalised on screen#its so rare to see specifically sapphic couples in media#even rarer to see them age#i am tired of pretending queer death is revolutionary#we will see korra's death animated before we see her happy#korrasami

the thing that drives me absolutely crazy though is that gortash is presented as this commanding dominating tyrant and yet it's consistently shown that the thing he appreciates about durge (or tav for that matter) is when they're not willing to submit to him & when they are strong enough to either stand against him or to stand with him & when they are his equal.
an insane thing for someone like him to want. you'd think he'd want to rule alone and yet the insight checks all show that he actually prefers to share so long as there's someone around worth sharing with.
"Half a smile shows he is teasing you. He doesn't think for one moment you'd fully submit to him. Nor should a spawn as formidable as you."
#bg3#durgetash#enver gortash#the dark urge#they put actual cocaine in this ship and they didn't even realize it 😂#the funny thing too is as far as i can tell this doesn't go against bane's doctrine at all and is actually a good representation of it#banites as a whole seem to be diplomatic charismatic manipulative network-building scheming mastermind types#tbh lawful evil fucks#unrelated but this is always what i think of when i'm writing valerie locke in “secure your soul” since she's fundamentally lawful evil#she's highly ambitious and ruthless and she'll kill you or take from you without a moment's hesitation but#if you successfully defend yourself from her she will not be bitter at all. she'll be excited. she will appreciate your strength.#and then she will either ally with you or redouble her efforts to take you down#she's essentially immune to the emotion of envy because she's too self-assured and she just doesn't think negative emotions are useful

no bc jackie wanted to be loved so badly and she cared so much for everyone on her team, she did their face paint and misty's makeup and tried to boost morale and she loves shauna so fucking much and they exiled her and they left her outside and she froze to death. they literally froze her out. i'm genuinely never getting over her death bc she did not deserve that and all they would have had to do was ask her to come inside and if shauna was just like "hey i love you i'm sorry" she would have come inside. SHE WOULD HAVE COME INSIDE GUYS.
#jackie taylor they could never make me hate you#jackie taylor#shaunajackie#yellowjackets#basil speaks now#listen i love shauna so so so much but i will never forgive her for leaving her out there#(but she'll also never forgive herself for leaving her out there so like. twinning i guess.)#anyway if i have to see one more post saying that jackie was a bitch i'm actually going to scream#HER BEST FRIEND FUCKED HER BOYFRIEND AND THEN HER FRIEND GROUP TRIED TO ASSULT SOME GUY AND WHEN SHE WAS LIKE#'hey guys that's kind of fucked up what is wrong with you'#THEY (essentially) KILLED HER#LIKE WHAT THE FUCK?#jackie my baby my love come here i will make hot chocolate for you and put you near a heater and like sew you a blanket or something#i seriosuly love her so much#yj

magistrate astarion with an unknown drow woman. rumour has it that they’ve met each other at the night of the lumberg manor scandal and have been inseparable ever since. no information can be found on the drow… maybe she’s one of mamzell amira’s new girls?
anyway. more of the murder mystery au but this time with the hags 🙂↕️🤭 their whole plot is basically them planning to kill one (1) guy but accidentally unveiling this decades long city scale murder conspiracy
#astarion ancunin#oc: shri’iia.#bg3#hag romance.#bg3murdermysteryau.#mine.#now it has a tag! 🤭🙂↕️#they’re not gonna do anything abt that plot tho LOL they’re like my circus but def not my monkeys#also as I was colouring this I realize he doesn’t have to look so deathly bc he’s not a vampire here but I just kept his colours bc he’ll#look weird lol. maybe it’s from the stress. in this au he’s getting psychologically tortured by cazador instead of physical#cazador is also blackmailing him and keeping him in a short leashes hence ^ why they gotta kill that guy#and shri’iia needs a way to return home so if she does that for him he’s gonna arrange a way for her to go back to menzoberranzan#tbh their plot is very tangled LOL this is just an elaborate tangled au essentially

absolutely certain that helly is in fact helena is in disguise by this point and it was not a difficult thing to work out frankly but what absolutely knocks me on my ass is the REASON she's down there. after 2x01 we all assumed she was trojan horseing herself to spy on the rest of MDR and dissuade them from causing any more trouble. makes perfect sense right the fate of this company is in her hands. but NO!!! helena with her incredibly privileged spoiled brat outlook on everything, who has been told she's part of the most important lineage that's gonna save the world her whole life, sees a version of herself she heretofore did not even see as HUMAN forging the kinds of connections she has never had once in her life, and you think she's just gonna keep sending her down there and letting her have that? when she, the heiress of lumon and great granddaughter of kier, doesn't? she wants to experience what it's like to have no one expect anything of you, where you can express yourself however you want and kiss people just because you feel like it!! she views her innie as so far beneath her and yet she's so desperate for a taste of what it's like to be her! so much she's willing to KILL HER!! she's down there because she's fucking jealous of her innie!!! girl oh my god!!!!
#smth about incredibly rich and privileged people romanticising the plight of the lower classes IDK!!!!#it also makes me think of how in order to bring his own team back mark essentially had to kill 3 other workers#for the sake of his own comfort he sacrificed three people just like him#and helena wants what her innie has but still doesnt view her as a whole person with as many rights to life as her#by pretending to BE helly shes literally killing her#she only wants to consume her. still viewing her as a commodity that exists at her pleasure#once again the ruling class co-opting revolution to suit their own purposes#helena gets to cosplay someone she could never be because of the circumstance of her privilege#and helly is ever the victim#helena eagan i must study you#incredible how they managed to make her relatable and sympathetic on an emotional level#but still make it very clear she is an Antagonist and no matter what is always serving herself above all else#severance#severance spoilers#helena eagan#helly r#meta tag

DARK (2017-2020)
#darkedit#dark netflix#hanno tauber#noah dark#bartosz tiedemann#usererry#smallscreensource#filmtvcentral#televisiongifs#tvarchive#mine#mine: gifs#mine: dark#ch: hanno tauber#ch: bartosz tiedemann#tv: dark#i have a lot of thoughts about bartosz and noah and their dynamics with adam#like how they essentially end up in the same place#bartosz being jonas' best friend since childhood and witnessing his decline and losing faith in him completely#but still going along with it to a point#and then he has to watch his son be essentially brainwashed and there's nothing he can do about it#bartosz know what his son grows up to be and all he can do is watch it happen#noah meanwhile goes along with adam and trusts him implicitly especially after he (wrongly) believes claudia stole his baby#after her (correctly) guesses she's gone rogue#and eventually realises that he's just been a pawn this entire time and adam has done nothing but lie#and he learns that no only did adam arrange for his daughter to be taken but he had him kill his own father (among others)#separated him from elisabeth - all to uphold the cycle noah wanted to break and adam promised him he would break#and essentially ended up exactly where his father did#'we will become friends before you betray me' - basically applies to both noah and bartosz

i’ve like done lil tidbits about kyle ( vani’s mom ) but i don’t think i’ve ever really gone into tidbit talkin’ about jamie ( vani’s dad ) except for the fact that he killed kyle & is currently in prison ( & that porn comic i did of him & bailey that has his old adult design ). which. my bad guys.
like unlike kyle who was able to endear herself to a lot of the people she met, jamie was… not that. man made enemies on first introductions, it’s surprising he had friends. like to best describe jamie, imagine whitney, but instead of whitney having the small grace of secretly being a fucking dweeb with a slight moral conscious that they know they are doing fucked up things, jamie is aware of his fucked up shenanigans and he has no remorse for it LMAO
he harasses, degrades and beats the shit out of people for shits & giggles, it’s why he had such a thriving career as an underground fighter before he got arrested. like a moral consciousness that is constantly beat out by his own selfish need for dopamine and adrenaline. the only thing that holds him back is bailey ( & used to be kyle ) cause he knew that he’d be chewed out by them after, which is worse to him than having to deal with past orphanage director’s weird punishments. just… the definition a wild fight dog kept on a leash
#. // ♡ 🌱 txt#jamie the bruiser#i love vani’s dad cause he is so fucking stupid but still smart#he’s also very driven through his own pettiness#which if you’re wondering about the him & bailey thing#they are essentially childhood friends who are were inseparable#to the point of insertion if you will#and bailey doing a ‘haha we are just buddies’#unlike jamie who took it very seriously ( bailey did too but he was nervous about admitting his feelings )#yes bailey was fucking both vani’s mom and dad#and also adding in that despite jamie’s bad behavior#he still had cliques and all#that liked surrounding themselves around him for intimidation status and protection#but they weren’t real friends and jamie knew that too#since he his real friends were kyle bailey and eden#he just kept others to use them for food & sometimes a place to stay if the director kicked him out for curfew#which thank god jamie is in jail now#for vani’s character development#cause if he was still around he’d be very active in her life!!!#very much girl dad wanting to spend time with her#but in turn would beat the shit out of anyone who was like ‘can i date your daughter’#like hc that if he got out now and saw whitney dating vani he’d try and kill her#while also trying to jump start a relationship with bailey again#yknow hashtag priorities

temple is an unreliable narrator and is more at fault for biff’s death than he lets on/remembers: juicy. delicious. tragic. what’s the truth? does anyone even remember? how much blame falls on carolina? how much on temple? how much on biff? everyone has a different version of events and they’re all conflicting and no one knows what really happened except that biff ended up dead and temple can never, ever let that go.
temple is an unreliable narrator and is completely at fault for biff’s death and carolina had nothing to do with it: okay well you’ve made it even more boring than canon
#mark temple#rvb#i don’t know how many ppl still have ‘temple killed biff’ theories but tumblr kept showing me some old ones after looking through temple tag#and i’m just. temple killing biff and then blaming the freelancers is so borrrinnnnnggggg you just made him a crazy person#he’s gotta have motives. he’s gotta have a motive that makes you understand why he did this.#you gotta see the vision#it’s also very… i don’t know it feels very like. scrubbing down carolina’s edges?#the fact that carolina would be willing to kill/let sim troopers die is like. that’s a part of her character#that’s a part of ALL the freelancer’s characters#like obviously temple becoming a serial killer with a murder basement is fucked up and not a equivalent retribution#but also. like. i can guarantee you every freelancer in that room took a biff away from a temple.#killing sim troopers was just part of the job#making carolina have no culpability just weakens it soooooo much like. like you’re not actually cleaning her character at all#she definitely killed other sim troopers!#we see her! on screen! killing a bunch of guards who are literally just. doing their job. like they’re essentially civilians.#carolina was complicit in a system that resulted in many innocent lives lost and one of those lives was biff#and maybe temple had more of a hand in it than what he said but that doesn’t erase carolina’s complicity

can't stop thinking about lila and nino's time in the shoe shop for no particular reason (lie), but she brought books to that shop... the whole affair started by the sea... the books, the shoes, the sea... all symbols of lila's childhood that have been morphed into something else, something eerie and adult, and she attached their original shape and meaning to nino, just like she has always done with elena, because he was supposed to be her way back to these things, if only indirectly, if only the small way she could possess them again existed in watching him have them. and i've mentioned this to mal the other day, but the heart of this relationship is based on a cruel contradiction: on one hand it is an attempt to reestablish childhood innocence (the books, the shoes, the sea in their original fairytale, dream-like form), but on the other hand it's overwhelmingly defined by adult themes like adultery and sex (melina and donato's relationship) it's a warped perspective on both childhood and adulthood ultimately. it's got the spirit of each right, but the motifs are all wrong, like they've crossed to the wrong side of the timeline. so, in many ways, nino, to lila, exists as both the essence of elena and rino, the gods of her childhood, and as the essence of marcello and stefano, figures tied to her brutal push into adulthood. and lila is already an extreme example of adult motifs crossing into childhood's territory so when nino appears, her understanding of sex and adultery hasn't been sugarcoated, but is rather present in, not the only possible form sex and adultery can exist in, but certainly in one of their truest forms, vulgar and dangerous in their banality. (thanks to stefano and melina and donato respectively) thanks to that, lila's relationship with nino can't be a new beginning because it's only a response to preexisting experiences and everything good about it is only good because it's better than something that happened before, but ultimately it stays within the circle it appears to be rebelling against.
#i think with elena and lila they do create a separate metaphysical space for their relationship#and lila and enzo are as elena puts it built on something good that comes from the neighbourhood#so in my mind they aren't breaking any cycles not in a widely understood way od the term anyways#but are rather nurturing something deeply rooted in both of them hoping it evolves into something beautiful instead#like lila lovessss what enzo accomplishes with his studies PRECISELY because of his background#essentially she loves nino for the same thing but the crucial difference is that nino can only be halfway successful in this#because he committed the crime of moving away as a child and because he refuses to accept anything associated with a part of that child tha#stayed in the ugliest parts of naples. the child that was there before he was born really#idk it's so big... the fact that nino ALMOST dies as he's leaving the neighbourhood#metaphor for his whole character. he almost isn't who he is he is almost born as someone else someone rich and privileged#and it's important how MELINA almost kills him. it manifests in his feelings for lila. the main reason#why he can't stand her is because she reminds him of where he comes from#l'amica geniale#dylanlila.mp3#ferranteposting#lila cerullo 🫀

Also off topic but I’ve been reading through the TPN manga!! Currently in the middle of the Goldy Pond arc and manga readers I finally understand why you hate season 2 so much. Anime producers did us dirty by cutting out Mister and that entire arc 😔
#I REALLY love the concept of Goldy Pond too#It’s very Hunger Games-esque. And I love brutal controlled killing games like that#DR too#Also I cannot BELIEVE they kept Lucas under wraps for that long. The demons literally have no idea he’s been living there for 13 years#That is WILD#TPN#The Promised Neverland#Yakusoku no Neverland#Love that Emma gave Mister a very passionate speech and essentially converted him to her side#He’s actually willing to help Ray go save her even tho he has to relive all that trauma. He’s a real one#Shima speaks

well one of us is going to have to change
#ffxiv#geese art#ocs#fray myste#oc: yesui#pre-arr yesui#same skirt is a coincidence in-universe and out. just looked good with her glam teehee#they do not get along very well BUT. in this one instance here? getting along scarily well#1) neither of em are in armor 2) yesui is taking her hair down 3) her back is to him 4) her scales are going back to blue#and nary a sid in sight they’re not even being civil just to keep him from getting on their asses about it#i like thinking about their relationship a lot they don’t like each other#on a personal level#but they both like the same guy and their goals are essentially the same. yesui especially has a lot of real respect for fray#even tho outwardly she hopes he explodes.#fray likes kiril a Lot more than he likes yesui but there is still a base level of respect there too#at the very least he can trust that she’s not going to try to kill sidurgu anymore so he appreciates that if nothing else#if things had gone differently they probably could have ended up being friends but. alas#someone had to go and get executed. and then seven years later fray also went and got executed#and then SOMEONE. just HAD to possess his corpse#this is getting too long anyways send post
