on my gomens bs tonight i guess. bro what the fuck was that finale.
i just. the first four eps were good ! not too much meat but lots of set up for further plot, the mystery of gabe hanging over their heads, nina and maggie. the mini stories felt like they didn't do much but they were fun !
and then the last two episodes fell flat for me. the confession scene was still heart wrenching, but ugh idk.
the regency ball thing was,, weird ? can we all agree it was weird ? and the fact that nina was the only one who never got drawn in ? is it bc she was upset ? and how did az manage it w/o a miracle, given we were literally told EPISODE ONE that he has to be super careful with what he casts bc heaven is watching, ESPECIALLY since they think he has gabe. if he DID do a miracle for it, that feels like lazy writing ? why spend so much time setting up "we need to do a baby baby miracle oh no we fucked up" if theyre just gonna start doing miracles later w no consequences
and the halo thing was also weird. it just felt like lazy writing, they couldn't have set a halo up as a weapon during ANY of the mini-sodes ? even a one-off "oh remember when i blew up my halo?"
the thing that rlly got me i think is gabe and beez's relationship being fleshed out in five minutes in the last ep makes the payoff of them running away feel really hollow and empty.
why is it so paradoxically easy for gabe and beez ? it makes the dance az and crowley have been doing look like one fueled by basically "being too cowardly and dumb to run away together" when really its "being caught up in who you are, who you are supposed to be, who you love, fear of rejection, and love for someone you should by all rights never have spoken to in the first place"
gabe and beez and up being "look what those two idiots could have if they just chose each other" and it feels hollow and petty and because gabe/beez has NONE of the narrative set up for their relationship to carry any depth, they make the struggle crowley and az have been having feel trivial ?
don't get me wong, beez and gabe COULD have been a foil to the fear crowley and aziraphale carry about their relationship, how if you can just make the leap you can be with the one you love, but with SO LITTLE setup for beez/gabe, it falls flat
im hopeful s3 will fix a lot of stuff, and admittedly im sorting out my emotional frustration w the cliffhanger from my actual grievances with the plot but ugh. it was not what i expected
I wanted to know. Is battra and Space Godzilla Gay together? If so nice. If just friends. Then Still cool
they are in fact.......... Gay Together
in my delulu little world at least
idk how it started honestly?? i just like the idea that gojirans are inherently weak for big moths :'') they're essentially mosugoji if you hit it with a emo-yaoi-beam or something
imma draw more with them soon to help flesh it out and spread more spacebat propaganda o7
LIKE this is so cute. they gave her all new voicelines and redid all the pyro cosmetics. what the hell. female tf2 class mods are supposed to be femscout upskirts and latex mommy mods not have actual taste and effort put into them
thinking about byan having a teacher submit some of their work into an art show or contest of some sort. how they'd be surprised (they've never really thought all that highly of their work; there's a reason they don't typically share it with anyone and it has a lot to do with a lack of support and a fear of having their enthusiasm for art crushed) and some part of them might even be a little excited... but they don't expect anything to come from it. (they've never actually won anything in their life. they've never had any of their skills celebrated, only been torn down over what they lack.)
thinking about them actually winning and not believing their teacher when she tells them, how they're sure she's just fucking with them until she shows them proof, maybe even hands them their cash prize. how even then, some part of them thinks that she forged the announcement and went to all these lengths so they wouldn't be disappointed over losing — the only thing that makes them accept that they really did win is the fact that no one would ever care that much about their feelings.
just thinking about how excited they'd be, once the truth of the matter finally sinks in: they finally won something, and it was for their art, of all things! maybe they're actually not terrible at it, maybe they really do show some promise! maybe... maybe they really are good at this thing that means so much to them.
the monthly apathy is back, rlly sorry if i said smthing to u and then u say smthing back and i don't respond for like a thousand years only to spam u after it passes and then u respond bcs ure awesome and i go on an unspoken vow of silence for yet another thousand years and the cycle just continues
Remember the little kid from Gaza who expressed joy and happiness when there the truce began because there were no sounds of drones? Here is he saying the drones are back once the truce was over.
several days and 15 thousand words later, i am relieved to report that the suffocating urge to Write Something has been sated and no longer has me in a chokehold
also no one I know of the small circle of Genshin players irl is keeping up with the main story right now so I have to go through the most jarring situations sometimes and then just Move On With My Life without DMing someone 8000 times in a row??? Okay.
it is literally so easy to be in a fake dating scenario with a friend and not fall in love with them I’ve been doing it for a few months and and both of us still don’t have romantic feelings for each other. I mean it might be hard if one of us had repressed feelings but we are literally so chill all the time and we are just doing it to keep someone from bothering me it’s SO EASY!
