Norman said it was romantic in 2015 and had songs he'd play for it. He never said he thought Beth was hitting on him, and anyways that makes no sense because the script isn't angled like that. I have no idea where norman thought those lines were played to that. They're just talking and Daryl gives himself away by saying they can stay at the funeral home and give it a go, he's basically saying he wants to stay with her but can't say it outright cos he's daryl, then Beth wants to know what changed his mind because it's a 360 on his part and Daryl realises he's caught in his own trap, so tried to shrug it off and not answer, as it would reveal what he really means. Beth presses him and then he just looks at her, and there is much unsaid in that look, and she's taken back at his unspoken declaration, she's kind of like really, ? then curious, etc sort of looking at Daryl different maybe not quite romantic but under a new light which leads there when she realises she means a lot to him.

Sorry for ranting but to see norman totally rewrite a beautiful scene that never happened like he's saying now makes me annoyed

Agreed. I feel like they keep backtracking over the years for whatever stupid reason. Like y’all did not shy away from admitting it was romantic, it was intended as romantic, written and performed as romantic, and now you wanna try to say it was one-sided or misinterpreted?? For what? To appease the loudmouths? I hate it.

You're missing something. Surely it wasn't that important, was it?

Full pieces under cut

(Warning for blood and just overall nightmare horrorish. Slight gore?)

Surely not.

“Mu Qing is too logical for his own good” is such a real problem that he deals with and as tragic as it makes his life I also think it’s really funny when someone is accusing him of something and instead of telling them to shut up or leave him alone the first thing he does is pull out the 95 fucking theses detailing every single thing wrong with their argument WITH historical evidence and additional considerations from scholarly psychology articles, MLA format works cited and completely annotated. It could use an editor and some bias correction, but he actually makes a pretty good point. anyways tgcf ace attorney au when

Au where eating the demons desire makes Laios immortal

Demons Curse

—

WHYYYYY WHY WOULD YOU SAY THIS TO MEEEEEEE WHYYYY SNIFF SNIFF IM SO SAD. IMS O SAD. I DREW THIS WHILE FALLING APART AT THE SEAMS. uaogh okay let me get my thoughts out about this

i originally was sorta happy in a bittersweet way cause i thought, well at least marcille has company, they have eachother to lean on now!

...but then i realized marcille isnt immortal. shes gonna live LONG, but shes not immortal. AND I GOT SO EXTREMELY SAD

can you imagine, trying to convince your friend not to extend everyones lifespans to a scarily long degree. and then having to help her deal with that fear and grief of losing her loved ones. AND THEN REALIZING YOURE IMMORTAL AND OUTLIVING ALL OF YOUR LOVED ONES INCLUDING HER. imagine being marcille as she gets older watching laios experience the same exact fear and grief she knows so well and knowing she cant do anything other than reassure him itll be alright. imagine being so scared to die and now suddenly you know someone who CANT die and realizing thats SO MUCH WORSE paces in circles. AAAAAAUGH

additional thought of this au, what if this was part of the demons curse to never allow laios' greatest desire to be granted? i mean laios is a very simple guy with simple wants, he wants to be loved, to eat good food, to study monsters, to be around his friends, and generally just live a normal life. being immortal would definitely complicate things... he'll be able to see and experience so many things but he wont be able to do it with his loved ones, not for long.

and also, being king, he'd probably be in that position for a long long time - maybe he'd willingly retire at some point but even after that where would he go then? what would he do? he cant go and find monsters to study, they all avoid him. i guess, explore the rest of the world? watch everything move on without him?

speaking of, imagine if he lived up until a time like modern day. so many years so many friends (gained and lost) and so many changes... that would be insane. THIS IS SPIRALLING INTO ME JUST GOING "WOULDNT IT BE FUCKED UP TO BE IMMORTAL" AJDNSJXBAH

anyways, final note, im reminded too of this "hand my my shovel, im going in!" animatic that haunts my mind forever AUGH its so good, and captures my immortality thoughts perfectly

Ever After High, but make it a PIDW AU.

Imagine how fucked up it would be if Shen Jiu is up there doing the book signing ceremony that seals his destiny of becoming the next 'Shen Qingqiu', and the mirrors display him getting thrown away by his martial siblings at the trial, and his limbs being torn off and other despicable tortures, and being brought down so low that your humanity is stripped away from you, all for an audience to see. And they cheer. The crowd is ecstatic, perhaps even more so than when his father, Shen Qingqiu, was put on trial.

Do Cadence or Twilight ever regret not being able to gift Shining Armor with ascension like them or are they happy he was able to live out his normal life without becoming a god?

Not everyone is mentally suited to immortality. And this time, they actually asked first instead of doing an immortality jumpscare.

Cadance and Twilight didn't get a choice. Ascension was thrust upon them by Celestia. They had to come to terms with it after the fact, realizing they would outlive all their friends and have the responsibility of an entire force of nature in their hooves. They would watch countries rise and fall, see extinctions and new ways of living. Strange technology and customs, and slowly feel their life elongating until it was beyond mortal comprehension. An alicorn has to be ok with this. And alicorn should want this. It's a gift as much as a curse.

Shining Armor cares about the ponies in his life. He knows they will miss him, he will miss them as well. But he wants to stay among his friends, his parents, and his kingdom.

Shining armor said no. He said I have served Equestria my entire life, and one day I will rest.

His family is made of immortal mares. They could force it upon him to ease their own hearts, to prevent their own grief... But they won't. Love and friendship know more about being a person than the Sun.

It is his choice. He will not be the God Prince of Protection. He will simply be Shining Armor, and consider his life well lived.

pacing around in circles muttering to myself about daniel and louis and the years between the first interview and now...... daniel telling armand "he didn't even want me in the end" after offering to get on his knees for him instead... they didn't fuck but for decades "i really thought we did" / "do you want to now?"... daniel is old and dying in a penthouse full of impossibly young beautiful immortal beings and louis still laughingly offers something that daniel thought for years he'd gotten already. and then it turns out that not only he didn't, but something in him had assumed they did have sex and never explored that further and he's gone through this entire second interview so far under that assumption because that bridge has been crossed already. except it hadn't and when louis says "do you want to now" you can see the change in his expression like for the briefest of moments he really is considering it

Hi! Sorry to randomly send this lol you’re like my favorite ao3 author at this point! Your “in for a penny, in for a pound” series is just fantastic. It’s been years since I’ve read and written fics but rewatching twd kinda launched me back into my old reading habits and this fandom is still pretty new to me. I was wondering if you had any fellow authors or stories in the fandom that you would recommend? I’ve been burning through a metric TON of completed works on ao3 and FFN but I’m wanting to get more into WIPs and give support to authors as they’re writing :) Thank you in advance, hope you’re doing well!

Sorry to take over a year to answer this 😬😬

As for fic recommendations: anything and everything in my bookmarks.

As for authors… man, I have so many I wanna recommend, but I’m gonna try to list some off the top of my head (and they’re probably the majority of my bookmarks, as well lol)

Although there's a very specific reason for them to be working at the Pizzaplex, that doesn't stop them from infodumping every once in a while!

Knowing a bunch of random info turns out to be pretty useful when working with curious kids and a 8 foot tall robot who's always more than happy to listen to anything. Besides it makes for great stories to tell

hey guys, so i saw this photo of edwin and it means that i get to talk about historical fashion.

ok i dunno if you can see very well, but ya know how at the top of his shirt theres a little gold thing. that isnt a top button. its a collar stud (or at least i think thats what theyre called)

in the 1910s and maybe the 1920s, shirts were a little bit different. for the most part it looks the same way a modern shirt would. however, when you buy it, theres no collar.

it simply just ends with a bit of fabric with two holes in it. then you would buy a collar seperately and attatch it on with some kind of stud, in this picture you can kind of see where the two ends have been overlapped to attatch it

heres a closer look at his collar ^

also you cant actually see it in pretty much any of the scenes because his bowtie is covering the overlap and the stud, this is the first picture ive found where you can clearly see whats going on

heres an example of a shirt without the collar, i dont know who's photo this is but if i find out or if anyone can tell me i'll change this to credit them.

even in the scene where he has his top button undone, if you look closely the collar is just tucked into the top of the shirt.(im struggling to find a photo, i’ll come back when i have)

love how years later i still really like cassidy/hanzo. Im gonna blame this on the fact every time im in a game with a cass we somehow end up hip to hip for most of the game and its just silly overall
