Oliver being his own greatest fear makes so much fucking sense in even more ways then him fearing the possibility of fucking up the thing he has going on with Felicity. I WILL elaborate

Eros/Psyche Parallels in Bridgerton Season 3
The show was not subtle with the Eros/Psyche parallels this season. So I attempted to go through episode by episode and find the connections. If I miss any obvious ones, let me know and I'll edit the post.
3x01- Out of the Shadows
Starting off strong with the opening credits! You briefly see a butterfly. Not only do the Featheringtons use butterflies as often as the Bridgertons use bees, but the butterfly is a symbol of Psyche.
When Penelope opens her wardrobe to that sea of YELLOW, her butterfly dress from the first ball of season 1 is visible.
Penelope talks with Genevieve about needing to find a husband this season and then we cut directly to Gregory with a bow (sans arrow) and he's pointing it directly at Colin. The bow and arrow is a symbol of Eros/Cupid.
Penelope sheds her cloak at that ball like a butterfly emerging from its cocoon.
The original Eros/Psyche myth has some jealous sisters and Prudence and Philippa, while maybe not jealous per se, are not happy to see their baby sister shining so brightly when she arrives.
And for more connection to the sisters--Psyche is the youngest of three daughters and her two older sisters are married before she is.
This one is, admittedly, a bit of a stretch but in the original myth there's some ire from Aphrodite because of all the attention Psyche is getting. And Cressida rips Penelope's dress once she is getting all the attention at the ball, specifically from Lord Debling.
Eros is sent by Aphrodite in the original story to marry Psyche off to marry someone/thing horrible (or just making sure no man wants to marry her) but Eros ends up falling for Psyche himself. Colin offers to help Penelope find a husband as a way to make up for what he said about her last year and, well, we all know where this is going!
3x02- How Bright The Moon
Edited to add (credit to @bridgertonblue)- Colin cuts his hand on the glass in the study. They flashback to this scene a few episodes later when Colin finally decides to take action with Penelope and his feelings for her. This can be a parallel to Eros getting struck with his own arrows and falling for Psyche.
Eros only visits Psyche at night. Colin comes to see Penelope at night in the garden after their scheme is exposed.
Eros accidentally struck himself with his own arrows and that's how he came to fall in love with Psyche. Colin kissed Penelope because he thought he was doing it for a friend, and he ended up awakening feelings he didn't even realize he had for her.
3x03- Forces of Nature
In the Architectural Digest Bridgerton Set Tour video, you'll see butterflies on the staircase in the entrance hall of Featherington House. It's not exclusive to this episode, I just thought I'd highlight it here since it's when we have the Eloise apology scene.
THIS ONE IS A HUGE STRETCH BUT I'LL PUT IT IN HERE ANYWAY--remember how windy it was with the balloon and Colin's arms that Penelope couldn't stop drooling over? Psyche was carried by Zephyrus-the West Wind-to her fancy new home and the godly husband she never sees.
3x04- Old Friends
Eros is tasked with marrying Psyche off, falls in love with her, and marries her instead. Colin offers to help Penelope find a husband earlier in the season, realizes he's been in love with her this whole time, and we get the iconic line, "For God's sake, Penelope Featherington! Are you going to marry me or not?"
3x05- Tick Tock
This one is another stretch, but Psyche has some jealous sisters who are not permitted to visit her at her new home (until Psyche convinces her husband to let them visit many months later). Prudence and Phillipa are being mean to Penelope over her engagement and Portia doesn't allow them to attend the engagement party. A Bridgerton engagement party, so you know that stings.
And another stretch! Psyche gets pressured by her sisters to find out her husband's true identity. Penelope gets pressured by Eloise to reveal her secret identity to Colin.
3x06- Romancing Mr. Bridgerton
Eros tells Psyche that she can never know what she looks like, which is why he only visits at night. If Psyche knows who her husband is, then eventually Aphrodite will find out and she'll be pissed. But Psyche, filled with doubt thanks to her jealous sisters, lights a candle while Eros is asleep, revealing his identity and betraying Eros.
Penelope writes/delivers her Whistledown column at night. Colin follows after her, discovers her secret identity, and feels betrayed.
3x07- The Joining of Hands
Eros leaves Psyche, feeling betrayed even though he still loves her deeply. Colin is cold and distant to Penelope in the fresh sting of his betrayal. But he still loves her and goes through with the wedding.
3x08- "Into the Light"
Eros refuses to see Psyche because he's been so hurt by her betrayal. Colin sleeps ten feet away from his wife's bedroom door (they must have had other bedrooms!) and leaves soon after she wakes up in episode 8.
Psyche has to go through some trials put forth by Aphrodite to get a chance to see her husband again. Penelope is confronted and blackmailed by Cressida when the latter learns that she is Lady Whistledown.
Psyche approaches two different goddesses to help her find Eros. Sometimes they refuse to help. Sometimes one of them points her in the direction of Aphrodite's place. Those two goddesses are Hera and Demeter. Two members of the most unlikely dream team in this episode are Portia and Eloise.
Hera is the goddess of marriage, women, and family, and she doesn't have the reputation of being an upstanding mother in mythology. She parallels Portia, mother to three ladies who she wants to see in secure marriages.
Demeter is the goddess of the harvest and agriculture. This is more of a reach, but she can parallel Eloise. In her book, her love interest Sir Phillip is experimenting in his greenhouse with peas(?) (I should probably read that book again) to increase their yield. Eloise also initially refused to get in between Penelope and Colin in the previous episode.
When Psyche goes through these trials, she's pregnant with Eros's baby. The showrunners confirmed that Colin knocked up Penelope in that mirror scene so she's in the very early stages of pregnancy here.
Psyche is indirectly helped by Eros (Zeus's eagle helps her out when they remember they owe Eros a favor). This angers Aphrodite and makes things worse for Psyche. Colin tries to save his wife by appealing to Cressida and ends up making things worse for Penelope.
Psyche's final trial involves going to the underworld. She deems this an impossible task and intends to sacrifice herself before she finds another way. Penelope decides to reveal her identity to the Queen and the ton, effectively sacrificing her reputation and potentially her marriage.
Zeus listens to Eros's pleas and grants Psyche immortality. The Queen is merciful to Penelope and doesn't punish her for Whistledown, allowing her to keep writing.
Psyche is often depicted either with butterfly wings or with a butterfly near/around her in art. Mrs. Varley releases the bugs (butterflies) directly after the Whistledown reveal.
Eros and Psyche are reunited and live a rare Happily Ever After in mythology. Penelope and Colin reconcile and go on to their own Happily Ever After.

Hi ace ☺️!!!!! My fav trope is forced to watch/listen (especially if they are in the same room and whumper does nothing to the caretaker but keep asking them to reveal their secrets if they want it to stop 😏) but I cant find nearly enough of this trope
So if you know any media with this trope in it can you share ?🥰
(Also it has nothing to do with the ask but whenever I think of people outside of tumblr I imagine them with their pfp so your face is aaron in my mind sk3kdkdk 😅)
Mmmm yes that is a very good trope and yes it's also hard to find. Sometimes it pops up in fanfiction but off hand I can't think of any (I read so many it's hard to remember sometimes and I haven't updated my masterlist in a little while with tropes). Let me see what I got to rec.
My immediate thought was Chicago P.D. 3x01 when the team watches via video while Jay Halstead is beaten and tortured.
Hawaii Five-0 10x22 Steve is forced to watch a beaten and bloodied Danny through a video sent to him.
There's also this scene in Red Notice where the Rock and Ryan Reynolds are tied up and The Rock's character is tortured.
In Iron Man 3 Tony is forced to watch as Pepper is injected with Extremis
The Following 2x07 has a scene where Mike Weston is forced to watch
Stargate Atlantis 3x07 John is tortured and a video of it is shown to the team.
Stargate SG-1 5x07 Danny is forced to watch Jack be tortured
Legends of Tomorrow 1x05 Mike and Ray are tortured in front of Stein.
Arrow 1x18 Roy is tortured in front of the others via video.
Killjoys 1x05 D'Avin is tortured and Johnny watches the video
Graceland 1x08 Mike Warren is forced to watch and participate in torturing someone.
Falling Skies 5x05 has a great listening scene
Avengers Infinity War Loki watches as Thor gets tortured
Teen Wolf 3x04 Derek is tortured by the Alpha pack while his sister Cora has to watch
A Discovery of Witches 3x06 Matthew is tortured in front of Diana
Hudson & Rex 3x09 when Charlie is buried alive and the team is shown him via live video
Sense8 2x11 (finale) when Wolfgang is captured and tortured
NCIS 3x08 when Tony gets beaten in front of Ziva and NCIS 7x01
9-1-1 5x17 when Chim is tortured in front of Hen
Also, to your last point, that's so funny and I honestly do the same thing and I'm honored to be seen as just Aaron Tveit running this blog lol.

3x01 coda, so spoilers ahead. Also on AO3.
Jaskier ascribes his lack of sleep to the action of the day, at first. He did, after all, get shot. Yes, alright, the arrow only left him with an impressive set of bruises around his shoulder blades, and a broken lute (it’s only the fourth lute he’s gone through in the last six months, and he’s forced to admit that none of Cyssiel’s lutes are quite as good as Filavandrel’s, but still, they don’t come cheap). His back aches and so does most of his body. He’s surrounded by soft breathing and the more distant snorts coming from the horses. He’s not used to this any more.
But no, it’s more than that. He’s grown stronger, tougher outside of Geralt’s zone of action. Today wasn’t even in the top five worst dangers of the last year. He barely had time to be properly afraid for himself – only for Ciri, for the dwarves, for Geralt and Yennefer, until he heard a swish and a thud and felt himself falling. He’s fine.
It’s something else.
He’s not the only one awake. Geralt is sitting in meditation, on watch as always, his eyes closes but his senses on alert. Yennefer and Ciri are snuggled against each other, but neither of their breathings has the regularity of sleep. Are they bothered by the day, too?
There’s Rience, of course. His continued existence sends a shiver down Jaskier’s spine. That day in Oxenfurt, now, that ranks as one of his worst. Top one, possibly. He’s never quite got it out of his head, the flame burning his fingers, the sheer terror of the moment.
He’s after Ciri. Jaskier can’t imagine how terrifying this must all be for her, running and running with half the Continent after her. She’s the only reason he came and faced this. He’s not the brave type, but she is.
As if reading his thoughts, Ciri makes a small, sleepy noise and climbs over Yennefer to curl up against him. “What’s wrong?”
“I’m alright,” Jaskier murmurs.
“No, you’re not.”
Yennefer sits up, perfectly composed, like she was never lying down at all. Geralt opens his eyes and catches Jaskier’s gaze, shaking his head.
No lying, then. Alright.
“I don’t know,” he sighs. “Something’s rubbing me the wrong way.”
“Rience?” Yennefer asks, and of course, she saw just how shaken he was, afterwards.
Jaskier shakes his head. “You did save me, in Oxenfurt.”
“Only after you risked yourself to get me and a bunch of elves on a ship.”
“Yeah.”
Silence falls uneasily. Ciri embraces Jaskier’s waist tighter. Jaskier sits up – groaning softly as the ache moves down his back – and gathers her into his lap like a much smaller child.
“We’re going to get him,” Geralt says, with all the quiet confidence that he usually deploys for Ciri.
Jaskier doesn’t particularly believe him.
“It’s not just him,” he says, unconsciously rubbing his fingertips. “The Scoia’tael.”
“What about them?”
“They attacked us.”
He doesn’t even know how to express it, how to explain almost two years of working with the elves in a few words, how to explain that…
That sense of betrayal.
The elves have been betrayed first, of course, and over and over. Jaskier has gained quite the perspective on that, recently. They’re doing the best with the scraps they have left, and they’re rightfully angry.
Jaskier has no right to feel betrayed.
“Their commander,” he says carefully. “Gallatin. He saved my life, once.”
“What?” Geralt frowns.
“Stormed a Temerian army camp. It’s a very long story.” Jaskier avoids everyone’s eyes. Ciri half sits up to look at him, but he looks away. “My point is, the Scoia’tael don’t attack dwarven caravans, not unprovoked. And Gallatin knows me. Half of these elves were my friends. Why would they do this?”
“It’s Francesca,” Yennefer says quietly. “Their queen. She’s the only fully elven mage I know of, and she’s… driven. She said Ciri is Hen Ichaer.”
“Their queen? Don’t they have a king? Filavandrel…”
“Is more of a King Consort, really. At least, from what I saw when they had me prisoner.”
“Right.”
“Can we go back to the Scoia’tael saving your life?” Geralt asks.
Jaskier would really rather ask about the Hen Ichaer thing – it rings a bell that he can’t quite put his finger on – but both Geralt and Yennefer are staring at him and he can’t escape them.
“Erm,” he says. He starts fiddling with Ciri’s braid, if only to stop himself from rubbing at his fingers until they hurt. “I kind of got captured by Temerian soldiers?”
“Captured?” Yennefer echoes, just as Geralt growls, “When?”
“Uh, like three months ago? It was after the… before the… yeah. But not for long! I was only there for two days!”
He’s not helping his case, apparently.
“Gallatin and his commando got me out,” he says hurriedly. “I wasn’t even hurt! Just a few bruises and scrapes and, you know, all fine.”
Dammit. Now they look downright furious. Even Ciri, looking up at him from his lap, has wide eyes.
“Why were you captured by Temerians,” Geralt asks, his voice dangerously low.
“Because I’m the Sandpiper?”
Geralt blinks. Yennefer winces. Jaskier suddenly remembers why he never told Geralt about that, back at Kaer Morhen.
Well, to be fair, there were many reasons. They were busy. There was the whole business with the Deathless Mother, whatever that was, and trips to other spheres, and various witchers not really liking Jaskier’s presence. It’s not like he meant to keep it from Geralt, really.
He just found it easier to let him assume whatever he wanted.
“You’re the Sandpiper?” Ciri pipes up. “We heard about that! That’s so cool! So you help all the elves get out of the places where they’re being persecuted?”
“I try,” Jaskier smiles shakily at her.
She smiles back and hugs him tight.
Geralt is still silent. Jaskier doesn’t like that at all.
“The Sandpiper,” he says eventually, slowly, staring at Jaskier.
“Yes?”
“You’ve chosen a side, then.”
The silence is deafening. Jaskier holds Geralt’s gaze the best he can – not very well. But this isn’t something he’s going to defer to him on.
“I’ve chosen to help those who need it,” he says, lifting his chin.
“And here I thought I was putting you in too much danger asking for your help.”
It’s Jaskier’s turn to fall silent. He swallows, goes back to rubbing his fingertips.
“I won’t lie, I’m not in a hurry to face Rience again,” he says. “But I am also currently wanted in three countries. So as far as danger goes, today was rather… tame.”
Geralt sighs. “This isn’t what I wanted for you.”
“I know.” Jaskier swallows. “I know you never wanted me to follow you. I know you never thought I had it in me, and I still wonder daily if I really do. But this is my choice, Geralt.”
“You’ve come a long way from that vapid singing twat I first met,” Yennefer says quietly, a smirk on her lips. Ciri snorts.
“Excuse you?” Jaskier splutters. “I have never in my life been vapid!”
“Nevertheless, I’m proud of you, Pankratz.”
Jaskier flashes her a smile, before turning back to Geralt and biting his lip.
“This isn’t about you, Geralt. Don’t get me wrong, I love you all, but not everything revolves around you. I just saw people who needed help I could give, and… it’s been rewarding, even though it’s sometimes scary.”
“You mean dangerous.”
“Well, yes. But I’m here, aren’t I? Not dead yet. I might just be a squishy human, but I’ve made it work so far.��
Geralt considers him for a moment more, then finally nods.
“Dara was one of them,” Ciri says suddenly. “The Scoia’tael.”
Jaskier runs his fingers through her hair, above the braid. “Dara?”
“He was my friend. I think. I met him after I ran from Cintra, we were together for weeks. He left, but… I saw the look in his eyes. He was ready to kill me.”
“They didn’t want you dead,” Yennefer says.
“Still. He… I almost didn’t recognize him.”
“I’m sorry,” Jaskier whispers to her.
She has that same feeling of betrayal in her voice, the one that they probably shouldn’t feel – aren’t they, in some way, the traitors? The humans, the oppressors?
But the elves’ oppressed status are doesn’t give them a right to Ciri. Jaskier doesn’t know how to reconcile that – he’d happy to see King Vizimir overturned (to see his head on a pike? maybe not) for all he’s done, to see the royalty pay for their actions. Yet, Ciri is a princess too – worse, Calanthe’s granddaughter.
She’s a kid, who’s already shed a childhood of prejudice and sworn to do better. She deserves a life. She deserves the world.
So what are they supposed to do, facing friends on the other side of a battleground? Is that what war always is?
He settles for hugging Ciri a while longer.
He thinks of Gallatin and his anger, Cyssiel and her fears, Dermain guiding people through the tunnels, and even Filavandrel, so many years ago, when Jaskier was naive and so privileged that he didn’t get it. Of Yarpen, of Holma and the other dwarves in the network. Are they fighting each other too, now? The threat of Philippa and Dijkstra cutting them off was bad enough, but this? How are they supposed to keep going?
His back aches. He longs for Vespula’s soft bed, and yet he wouldn’t want to be anywhere else. Ciri snuggles her head against his belly, halfway to falling asleep. Maybe it’s just too late for complicated thoughts.
“Goodnight, princess,” he murmurs.
“Night, Jask,” Ciri whispers back.
Without dislodging her, Jaskier carefully lies back down on his side. After a moment, he feels a weight settle against his back, careful of his bruises. “Night, Geralt,” he says. “And Yen,” when another form curls around Ciri’s.
He’s missed them.
He closes his eyes. Maybe things will seem better in the morning light.

What I've always clung to in Buffy is that it dares to show you how going through life - because all the monsters were metaphores - can wear you out. By The Wish, we've already seen Buffy having to deal with immense trauma, yes - the fallout episodes, 2x01 and 3x01 deserve a mention - but we've seen her bounce back. So we see who she is when she is well. Even The Gift has seen her come back from another overwhelmed episode to make even her last sacrifice an active choice.
And at this point in the series, though, we haven't heard Spike's speech yet, we haven't explicitly been told that every Slayer you can kill has a death wish. But this Buffy has one. We know at least part of what she's been through, she, too, has had the "I'm destiny free, really," speech with Merrick, and this girl with the bubble gum lipstick was forced to turn into this soldier. She's likely always been alone. No Kendra, no Faith. The relationship with her Watcher is hands off.
She's very young - and she's so tired. The burden of life is so heavy. And there is very little understanding of that among people, I feel. Either they feel that you need to be able to go through everything swinging. Or you have to be completely destroyed. And if you are, people will blame it on weakness.
But we know Buffy isn't weak. We know this Buffy can't have been weak either. It is simply too much. You can be as strong as you want, if life asks too much of you, continuously, you get weary, and bitter, and tired, and cynical, and though you are still powerful, a spark goes out when you've been forced to see too much.
Because this Buffy also doesn't run from responsibility, either. But I feel that she, too, has not been supported. "I don't work well with others", that happens when you are to expect no help, so the only thing you can do is isolate to at least only deal with your own problems.
She has been forced to bear too many of the slings and arrows of outrageous fortune and even the most powerful among us, the most responsible, even - can get depleted.
I don't want that for anyone, but I am so glad that this show gets it.
Buffy Summers ✿ The Wish
