thinking about how eddie munson probably has a ridiculous collection of guitar picks. little jars of them. some collected at shows, some he picked up for a nickel at the only local music shop he's ever trusted to do work on his Sweetheart, some he was gifted for free at his local record shop that he's been frequenting for years now. the little old man running the record shop even gets excited when new vinyls are sent out with promotional merch, and he knows it's a band or musician eddie is into. probably even called eddie in at times and handed him a handful of metallica themed pics, hardly worth much, but solely because "i knew you like them and will find a good use for these, son".

my point is, he's got a pick for every occasion. shitty plastic thin ones for just fucking around with. thicker, nicer ones that might have been proper holiday gifts to him. the kind that are meant to hook on his fingers like rings (he tried using them a few times, especially for rifts, but ended up saying he played better when he felt the strings against his skin instead while picking away). novelty ones, ones that just looked plain cool. so on and so forth.

and he's got his collection just sitting in little jars across his room. he used to keep them in other things, like old ash trays or tin cans he'd cut and mold to be good containers. but then he started dating you, and you insisted on lending him any empty jars you weren't using. you had your own collections in yours: pretty stones found down by the creek, bottle caps of the sodas you and eddie get every time you stop at the gas station right on the edge of town by lover's lake - you even had one of every single crumpled up note eddie had ever given you over your time of dating. a few jars of those, actually. so what was lending him a few spares? at this point, the jars were a collection in themselves, and... well... it was prettier to see his vast collection in those glass jars anyways. being able to pick out the vibrant tones of the guitar pick you'd been with him as he'd purchased two weeks prior, or the pick from the show you'd gotten him tickets to last christmas. it was nice. a cute reminder of time spent, of what made eddie munson tick.

the important thing is, eddie munson isn't blind. he sees the way you look at that collection, especially after he fills the jars with it.

how some days, he'll be strumming away on his guitar, softly humming, and you'll just grab a jar to pick through. interrupting his nonsensical playing to ask him where he got one you didn't recognize, sometimes asking for the stories behind ones he knew you already knew. he'd caught on to the way you just liked hearing him talk, especially about the things he cared most about.

you also really, really liked the pick he wore as a necklace. it was probably your favorite in his collection, and you knew it was his favorite too. giving it as a gift to you was never an option, because it had been given as a gift to him originally by his mom.

so he does the next best thing.

he figures out your favorite pick in his collection. the one you always go back to, the one you ask for the story behind on a nearly weekly basis. one similar to the one always resting against his collarbones. pearly sheen, marbled tones, a slow indent the shape of his thumb being worn into the old tortoiseshell. it's a little less red, a little bit brighter, and he can't even strum it against his strings anymore without thinking of you. it's somehow become his lucky pick - the pick he cherishes most aside the one from his mom.

and the one he chooses to turn into a necklace, for you.

does it all himself. carefully piercing a hole through the top just like his own, picks out a nice chain that costs two paychecks of his, takes an old pocket knife to it and spends weeks carving your initials into the shiny material. he's gentle as hell with it, finishing it off with some gold paint to fill in the carving that matches the chain and swirling tones of the picks.

a week before christmas he nearly backs out of the gift idea, and almost begs wayne to help him go to the mall and pick out some other basic but safe gift for you. a perfume/cologne, a nice sweater, anything. wayne refuses to let him, and the only thing the gentle old man will offer is a nice box for eddie to place that necklace born of love into.

the look on your face on christmas morning, sitting in the center of the munson's living room, on the verge of happy tears as you lift the homemade necklace so gently, soothes away every single doubt ever had about it all.

and the look on wayne's face is a simple, caring, stern vision of i told you so.

That’s actually incredibly wise of blitz, and it makes sense. As someone who is incredibly aware of his place in the world, he most likely had to live with the fact that if he can’t do something as big as making a business, for not just himself but his coworkers/family, then no one could feel like they deserve that right. And he wants to be that someone to go “you know what? Fuck you, I do want I want.” Which is a attitude he’s had since the first episode. And this scene only straightens that fact

i wanted to write an angsty normal fic a couple months ago about how i was perceiving his character arc going. i was hoping id be wrong, but i ended up being totally right and im upset!

bc he’s finally seeing how undervalued he is to the team. he’s realizing that linc, taylor, and scary—really linc/taylor and linc/scary—are tight and he’s forgotten. he’s rarely included, his ideas get shot down, they make fun of him for always wanting to be kind and loving hard and wanting what’s best for the people he cares about. linc is like… perpetually putting normal down bc i think he has a morality superiority complex. like none of you, NONE OF YOU! would have made it this far on your “heroes journey” without normal!!!!

he CHOSE to take his sisters place even though he found out the cost, that he wasnt wanted, and that he was just a disappointment for not being special. he CHOSE to stay and support all of you even when he was constantly rejected and put down by friends and crushes and parents. he CHOSE all of them, regardless.

they’re setting up the scary/normal arcs how they set up awakening the doodler and it’s fucking killing me. scary is learning to open up with love, while normal is learning to shut down with hate.

im worried about normal.

I imagine that after Saruhiko had his daughter, he began to hear a lot of people commenting, online and IRL, that daughters "always hate their parents as they hit their teens" and that gets Saruhiko increasingly more anxious with each birthday (he genuinely believes she'll just hate him as soon as the clock tells her she's 14 or something). He is, however, surprised that his daughter never shows any signs of growing to hate him even tho she keeps aging and is getting closer to adulthood now. He feels superior to all the other mothers in the parenting group for having a daughter who doesn't resent him lol.

This probably all seems perfectly sensible to Fushimi, who’s hated his parents since birth and only saw his hatred become purer as he hit his teens. Also somehow I really like the idea of him ending up in this parenting group full of gossiping moms, like his kid made friends with their kids when she was young and he just got kinda absorbed into the group. They sit around and talk about their kids and gossip about their useless husbands (Fushimi likes to mention his useless boss and his idiot best friend) and talk about the neighbors (Fushimi is learning so much, he can’t believe Mrs. Yamamoto’s neighbor cut down part of their tree without asking, she should stab him for that). Fushimi being a first time parent they all find him very adorable and want to help him out, they think it’s cute how attached his daughter is to him. They do warn him though that isn’t it sad the way they become less affectionate to their parents as they get older and be aware that when she becomes a teen she’ll probably start hating you for a while.

This makes Fushimi vaguely uneasy as his kid gets older, like when will the switch be flipped and she’ll start hating him. He thinks he’s prepared for it, since all the girls warned him, but really he’s very anxious about the idea that his daughter will one day start telling him to go die the way he did with his dad (also Fushimi’s baseline for ‘hating your parents’ is far above a normal person’s anyway, so while the ladies in the parenting group just mean that like she’ll get mad at your for not letting her stay out all night or whatever Fushimi is thinking that she’ll loathe him with every fiber of her being and stop coming home in order to deliberately avoid seeing him). As his daughter gets into her teen years though she remains remarkably well-adjusted and happy and at some point it starts to dawn on him that his kid doesn’t hate him after all. When the other ladies talk about how they have such a rough time with their kids Fushimi gets to sit there looking smug because his daughter doesn’t resent him at all, she’s never told him she hopes she can dance on his grave or anything the way he did with his dad.

No because like that whole ending interaction really started being horrifying with the evil fairy RIPPING HER EYES OUT OF HER HEAD and screaming in fear so hard that her THROAT BLED and somehow got even more terrifying as it went on

[pardonmydelays]

i had so much fun last night omg

[giddlygoat]

my brother can make me laugh without moving at all. he can make me laugh on command, just by existing, and there is no physical tell or indication that it is about to happen. it’s like he can will me to laugh and i will. of course we’re not telepathic, but we do speak in unison sometimes. we improvise like no one’s business. we could fool anyone into believing we are psychically linked. when i try to explain it, i sound silly saying it out loud, but i really CAN tell what he’s thinking. we exchange so much information just with a look. he can make me cry laughing and he doesn’t even have to move

Was doing so good holding it together today but now that I’m laying down and trying to sleep I’m tearing up and I can feel that I’m about to burst into tears any second now

thinking about nora again

[cienie-isengardu]

The only way I can see Bi-Han being mean or cruel to Kuai is when he's younger its more out of jealousy. Have you seen how little kids sometimes get upset when their parents brings a new baby? It's basically 'How dare you replace me!?' sort of thing and then tantrum ensues.

Obviously they usually get over it but I could imagine for the first years of Kuai's life Bi-Han was definitely a jealous little kid before he got over himself.

I know it sometimes happens, however in my experiences, how a child reacts to a new baby is often connected to how parents raised and prepared said child for the possibility. All kids will deal with the arrival of younger siblings in their own way, but parents contributed a lot to the situation. If someone spoil a kid to the point the kid is proverbial center of the universe and all family attention is only focused on them but then suddenly don’t have anymore a time for said kid because everything now resolved about the new baby, then it is hard to blame the older sibling for feeling resentful against the new member of the family that “stole” all the love. And as much as I can see your point, I feel like acting out of jealousy wouldn’t be true to Bi-Han, at least not in the original timeline. Like, the resentment could be there, sure, but considering how

the boy was chosen to be a Lin Kuei at birth and

his father, then-current Sub-Zero, came from a family already serving Lin Kuei for a few generations, 

I suspect Bi-Han’s training was already part of his upbringing since he was born. Maybe not fully the physical aspect, but the iron discipline and obedience (the last one may not always work though). Thus I think that even when baby Kuai Liang came into picture, and later their youngest sister, the father’s attention was aimed mainly at the first-born and preparing him for Lin Kuei life, so he could bring honor to their family and serve the clan well. Bi-Han could be jealous of baby Kuai Liang, could be sad for being forced to share mother’s love with someone else - and that one depends a lot what kind of mother she was on daily basis, so for all we know, Bi-Han actually could enjoy being the big, helpful brother and making her proud in the process - but I don’t think he had a reason to feel threatened by new kid’s presence if the father paid him special attention and spent time to train him for future life. And well, I don’t think kid Bi-Han was allowed to have tantrum attacks over “trivial” matters if he was meant to continue the true family tradition soon. Like, I can't imagine Bi-Han being raised as a spoiled child when father - and maybe mother, depending if she was a Lin Kuei herself or not - already knew his son was meant to start a proper training for assassin life.
