Bottoms Is the Queer-Teen Comedy That I, Specifically, Deserve - Emma Specter
“The script, which was written by Seligman and Sennott, is bizarre and fanciful and not completely grounded in reality, but that almost works to further the film’s unabashed queer agenda; after all, who cares about the football player bleeding out from a sword wound on the field when Edebiri and the cheerleader of her dreams—played with A-plus comedic timing by Havana Rose Liu—are making out in front of him?”

OH MOKONA DIDN’T KNOW??
MOKONA DIDN'T KNOW AND THIS IS HOW SHE HAD TO FIND OUT???
I suppose that would be a hard talk to have. How do you even bring that up in conversation.
Who knew that Mokona screaming in concern for her loved ones was going to be such a big part of this climax?
And THIS is a side of Yuuko that’s so painful to see. The clear sadness as she clutches her robes tighter to herself, her existence already starting to fade away…?
The immediate emergency aside, I’m kind of LOVING the parallel existence this gives Yuuko and Sakura. Both of them as people who died but had their existence altered by a Reed, both of them becoming hyper powerful but separated from usual reality. No wonder Yuuko cared so openly for Sakura - not only because it was Sakura, but because Sakura had such a similar fate to herself. And, maybe, a connected existence that would only allow one of them to exist?
Is there only one blank space in the universe for a being like them? Or is it the specifics of Lava Lamp's actions that drawing them together like magnets until one overwrites the other?
I'm not sure if she was technically a "clone" in the full sense of the word, but Yuuko was, in her own way, a failed attempt at creating someone else - so another type of failed clone, but a powerful one living her own life and maintaining her part of the universe.
And how sad that Evil Wolverine clearly saw the process that created Yuuko and decided to copy it to shatter the universe, when her existence was to maintain it. How Evil Wolverine saw Yuuko and decided to forcefully create a new broken person who would force her out of existence.
And despite it all, despite the fact that she knew it was coming, and made plans to help the people she wanted to, and obviously cared for Sakura deeply - despite all that, look how sad Yuuko is that it’s finally happening.

so in the past I have made themed gifts for people who have helped me* and it's been a little weird but like. Understandable to the person I am gifting the thing to weird?
My current problem is that I want to make something for my endocrinologist because he has improved my quality of life hugely** but endocrinology doesn't have an easily themed gift and my endocrinologist reminds me very very strongly of like a sad greyhound or a whippet but I cannot explain to this very nice, very normal man that "hey I made you a plushie of a dog because I wanted to thank you for the steroids and you remind me of a dog. In a good way!"
*like teeth plushies for the dentist who helped me figure out I have to have dental anesthetic without epinephrine in it, or a chicken plushie for the people at the chicken restaurant that went the extra mile to get their ingredients list that were the reason I figured out I'm allergic to coconut
**I had what would have been a severe allergic reaction and it wasn't pleasant but I didn't end up in the hospital and I didn't take like a week minimum to recover and

not to be dramatic or anything, but i care so deeply about the dynamic between the gryphonbanes and duncan, regardless of the version of the triton avenue quest. i want to know what duncan did for suzie to have faith in him to help save her brother. i want to see the part of duncan that reached his hand out to help artur and the yw save suzie. i wholeheartedly believe that suzie and artur would not have let duncan go on that downward spiral without a fight if they knew what he was going through. i want to know that they tried. and i want them to try again
