#both of their FAAAAAAACES

[anachilles]

“anyone know if buck made it?!”

“john egan, your two o’clock”

[ewesless]

I don't want an MC plushie I want these

Just look at that precious faaaaaaace!!

I wish both eyes were like the one on the left. Baby looks a wee bit unhinged, but I love the baby no less. 😭

[theravennest]

That was an incredible season finale!!!!!

The tension I got with both major sequences: Rescuing Naomi and the Battle with Drummer, the Free Navy, and Holden.

My heart was in my throat for the entire episode.

I feel so bad for Drummer’s polycule when Serge died and Oksana and Bertold dipped. Drummer really lost so much this season. Damn.

The way they wrote out Alex was pretty smooth, made sense, and didn’t feel like an extra scene even though they MUST have filmed those parts in pick up shoots only a few months ago.

NAOMI IN THAT GORGEOUS OUTFIIIIIIIIIIIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I’m so happy to see Bobbie and Chrisjen back together!

I loved that reunion with Naomi, Amos, and Holden. (Lowkey my OT3 in this show.)

Also, Holden’s faaaaaaace when Amos brought Clarissa on the ship and basically dropped her in his lap like Amos was a cat? Fucking priceless!!!!

The set up for next season with the Laconia faction, the Protomolecule Enemies, and the fact that Marcos now controls the Ring Space is exciting. Can’t wait for S6.

I had a real great time this season. Can’t wait to binge the whole thing in one go this weekend.

Sifeng’s faaaaaaace on discovering Xuanji removed his cursed mask.

!!!!!!

I have reached the irrationally protective stage with this character, I confess.

It’s rare that a drama is made for me by a single character - I tend to either love both members of the OTP, or be benignly indifferent to both, or at least have some supportings I am hung on or interested in intrigue or w/e.

But here I am all about Sifeng. If he randomly disappeared from the drama, I’d drop it. I have warmed up to Xuanji but I still don’t have much interest in her outside of “slowly she learns to feel and experience” narrative. All the supportings are fine but I wouldn’t care if they all got changed out for a new set. The plot is fine but it’s the usual xianxia plot. But Sifeng OMGGGGG I am obsessed with him because I am such a sucker for the way he is utterly, completely, and intensely in love with Xuanji. That actor (I’ve never seen him before) is so good at portraying someone some very consumed by his feeling, drowning in it. And I am here for it!

[recurring-polynya]

It is time for the most important meta I have ever done:

When, Exactly, Did Rukia and Renji Hook Up?

When we first meet Renji, he and Rukia haven’t spoken to each other in 40 years. Seven months after the Thousand Year Blood War Arc, they get hitched. We’re… we’re missing something. Somewhere in the middle there, they started kissing, and to be honest, it could have been anywhere. I’m gonna run through the possibilities and give my personal rating on their likelihood.

We will not be considering whether or not they hooked up prior to their separation, that is a topic for another time. Out of respect for your dash, I shall put all of this under a cut.

Let’s go:

1. Very Quickly. Just Right Away.

Look, this is not as unlikely as it seems. We know Renji already had Big Plans to resume contact. They had motive, for sure: A bunch of jail-related emotional tension. Rukia feeling Renji’s reiatsu go to dark not once, but twice. The Catch. Running down all those steps. ‘I’ll never let her go, you bastard.’ Unfortunately, all this ends with Renji getting carted off to the Coordinated Relief Station and Rukia fussing over Byakuya, so we can’t really imagine a big, romantic, off-panel “We lived!” smooch.

HOWEVER, we do get this (with bonus: Byakuya’s faaaaaaace):

Ichigo has lost Rukia, and the first person he asks is Renji. It would be generally in-character for Renji to reply with “How should I know where she is?” but he doesn’t, which implies that someone demanding Rukia’s whereabouts (in front of Byakuya, no less) of him is very normal and reasonable. He didn’t talk to her for 40 years, and within a week, he’s the go-to guy for finding her? Hmm. Hmmmmmmmm.

Likelihood: It could have happened. Look, I love slow burn, just, like, an unreasonable amount, but I am also utterly charmed by the idea that they’ve been apart so long that they decide not to waste any more time and just straight-up start making out in the waiting room while waiting for Byakuya to get out of surgery.

2. Between the Soul Society Arc and the Advance Team Arc

Something happened in this period, because when they show up in the Human World, they have all these...joint moves? Look at this adorable crap:

They’re always together and they... touch each other a lot? Also, look at this friggin’ smoulder!!!

Likelihood: Not actually very high, but I’m into it. The main thing that makes me skeptical here is that they actually act less like a couple in later storylines.

3. During the Advance Team/Hueco Mundo Arc:

Nah, brah.

For starters, they are only in the Living World together for about three days before Rukia goes back to Soul Society and A Lot happens during that time. There is a short period between when Rukia and Renji get recalled to Soul Society and when they show up in Hueco Mundo, but I imagine they were pretty busy sneaking around and also Rukia in particular was pretty stressed out about Orihime’s kidnapping, not very conducive to romance. Also, their dynamic doesn’t really change throughout this storyline. So either they were already hooked up, or it happened later, but it didn’t happen here.

Likelihood: Low.

4. During the Timeskip:

A lot of people go for this one, and it’s hard to argue with, because we’ve got a year and a half of not seeing them and when they show up again, it’s clear they’ve been Living Their Best Lives: Rukia has gone from unseated to Vice-Captain, and Renji has grown out his hair and started showing off his pecs.

The shinigami only show up at the tail end of the Fullbringer Arc, but even so, it’s clear that Renji and Rukia are close-- when Byakuya brings Rukia back from her fight with Riruka, he immediately hands her off to Renji, although to be fair, I feel like Byakuya hands things to Renji all the time when he’s tired of dealing with them. All the other captains go home at some point and they tell Rukia to stick around with Ichigo, and Renji just stays, too, without fanfare. Later, though we find out that Renji was the one who brought Ginjo’s body back to Soul Society (why is it utterly unsurprising that “moving bodies” a thing Byakuya makes Renji do???), so maybe he was sticking around for that.

Why am I so skeptical about this? Mostly because Renji is tremendously weird during the Fullbringer arc. First, he starts talking about what a nice guy the Captain-Commander is??? And then he gives that awful, terrible, ‘I don’t hit women’ speech while fighting Jackie. UGH I HATE IT.

There’s an episode of the Bount Arc where Rukia, who has been injured, gets out of bed and makes Renji take her to Ichigo’s fight where she then gives the Karakura kids a ten-minute speech about not interfering in other peoples’ fights. I honestly like to think that Renji has a bad head cold in the Fullbringer Arc, and he’s on the same medicine Squad 4 gave Rukia in that episode. It is the only explanation I will accept.

Likelihood: Sure, I guess? Insufficient evidence.

5. Before Thousand Year Blood War:

The first time we see them in this storyline, they are definitely Old Married Coupling it up:

After the Quincy show up and start taking names, both Ichigo and Byakuya worry about the both of them in one breath. They’re shown lying in the rubble together in dual shots, even though they’re halfway across the Seireitei from each other, and then they share a hospital room. Wait, what? They share a hospital room? Jeez, yeah, they’re together.

Likelihood: It’s highly likely that they’re together at this time, but I don’t see any particular evidence that it would happen after the Fullbringer Arc but before the TYBW. More like retroactive evidence for “in the timeskip.”

6. In the Royal Realm

Welp. This happened:

These pages are a goddamn gift.

They very awkwardly refer to each other as “a friend,” which indicates to me that they are not, in fact a couple at this point. I will extremely defer to anyone who has read this in the original Japanese.

BUT AFTERWARDS, they show up in matching outfits, and start wrecking people. God, I love them as a power couple. I love it when they swing into action together. I love that they trust and depend on each other enough to just be like, “Okay, babe, you take care of this guy, I’ll see you later.” I love it that they know each so well that they know each other’s weaknesses.

There’s a brief interlude where they split up so they can each have a big Signature Fight, but aside from that, they share panel time constantly up until the end of the arc, when Renji hauls Ichigo back onto his feet to go fight Yhwach. Renji’s speech to Ichigo makes more sense to me if Renji and Rukia did just get together in the Royal Realm, rather than having been together for some time.

Likelihood: It’s honestly hard to believe that they haven’t gotten together by this point, but they are both kinda boneheads. And narratively, I love the idea that they get together at this point. I’d say it’s my fav, but maybe they’re all my fav??

7. After the TYBW

We Do Knot Always Love You is lame.

There. I said it.

HOW is there an entire NOVEL about them getting married, and it is not romantic at all and we never find out how they got together and there’s no proposal scene and like, it’s funny that Byakuya can’t seem to process any of this, but it’s also profoundly UNSATISFYING?!!?

Anyway, I feel like WDKALY would have us believe they got together after the war, and I GUESS, but unless you’re willing to do the work of providing some romantic story out of it, this is the lamest possible point for them to get together. I disapprove.

Likelihood: Canonically, high. In my heart, very low.

So what is the upshot, Polynya? When did it happen?

The answer, friends, is that it is unknowable. In the epilogue timeskip, they basically haven’t changed at all. They’re just a couple of salty goobs who make eyes at each other all the time and express their love for each other by punching other people in the face. This is a huge part of what makes them so compelling to me-- you could write 1000 fanfics of them getting together at literally any time in their relationship, and it would work and be canon compliant.

Feel free to send me your opinions, I am willing to talk about this topic until I die.

the grinning man and/ or hadestown??

thanks, Ali! :D

- Hadestown -

Favourite Character: the tall worker/patron. ms. afra hines’ Tavern Patron. Ms. Jewelle Blackman’s Fate. Orpheus.

Least Favourite Character: not at all in terms of “I Don’t Like This Character” or “I dislike this character” but just in the sense of, “I Enjoy Every Other Character Just A Little Bit More”, it’s Hades  for me 😱

Favourite OBC Cast Member: i don’t actually know much about any of them, but i think Ms. Hines has great vibes and am also fond of Mr. Hughes and, of course Mr. de Shields.

Favourite Current Cast Member (If Applicable): i have Zero idea what’s even happening with the show rn so instead i’ll say that i really like what i’ve seen of Ms. Nabiyah Be’s work and enjoyed her as Eurydice

Favourite Song: that part in Lover’s Desire where Orpheus is going off on the La La La’s and it sounds like he should be flitting about like some kind of happy little Sprite. also If It’s True. also the part in Wait For Me when Orpheus sings “and I am not alone” and u can hear Hermes sing it with him. also the part in Wait For Me where there’s that kind of background/overlay of “I’M COMIIIIIIN” also If It’s True, also Wait For Me II, also Chant III

Least Favourite Song: i think it’s Hey Little Songbird? again not as in i dislike it at all, it’s just

Favourite Act (If Applicable): ooooooh...i...i think Act One? but...no it kinda depends on the day/mood, i think. Act One when i want some happyjoy and act 2 for angry depression with a lil hopeful streak thrown in.

Favourite Ship: i friend!ship Persephone with the Tall Worker. but also heck yeah Eurypheus

Least Favourite Ship: i don’t personally enjoy seeing Hades paired up with anyone in this musical who is not Persephone. Especially in certain contexts.

If There is Something I Would Change about The Musical: Papers.

Ratings: 10/10 for me. Maybe 9.5 if i’m nitpicking but, idk for me Hadestown, especially the Broadway one, is just really satisfying.

- The Grinning Man -

Favourite Character: i’m so weak for Bristol!Quake and honestly it’s so out of character for me and i have no excuse but. :/ Also, Gwynplaine is The Certified Primary Designated Favorite of the situation.

Least Favourite Character: i think i’m gonna have to go with Ursus? just bc the way things play out with him, while dangling in a similar manner to Jojo and Dirry-Moir,  irks me more in a character like Ursus than it does in characters like Dirry-Moir and Josiana

Favourite OBC Cast Member: so, Bristol? Probably Ms. Gloria Obianyo. I just love her Lady Trelaw and Quake. I also quite liked Mr. Angell as Mojo’s Head/Archbishop Kupsak :3 Ms. Brisson’s Dea is also my favorite Dea.

Favourite Current Cast Member (If Applicable): for London it’s gonna be Lady Trelaw/Quake again. Ms. Mackay’s Please Don’t Take My Little Boy reprise is intense and powerful in a completely different way.

Favourite Song: “The heart of our story is clear to me now/Oh, Dea, my love, it’s the fire in your heart/We found truth in the dark of the night/That shone bright on the darkest of nights/You always said pain would make us strong/And you were right, Dea, you were right./But noooow that I can seee my paaaain and Know the Hidden Face Of It I’m Grasping What Myy Mother And My Father tried to saaaaay to me/As they stood with stools beneath them and with nooses ‘round their necks the thing that they were fighting for was strength to look into the eyyyyyyyyyyyes of someone who is maiming you and SEEEEE THAT THEY’RE THE SAAAAAAME AS YOOOOOOOOOOOUEH/YOU DIDN’T CUT MY FAAAAAAAAACE/AND IN YOUR BURNING HEEEEEAAAART/URSUS DIDN’T CUT! MY! FAAAAAAACE/DEA YOU HAVE KNOWN THAT FROM THE STAAAAAART/AND WHEN I LOOK. IN THE EYYES. OF THE MAN. WHO. DID/AND WHEN I LOOK. AT THE MAN. WHO CUT. MY. FACE./I SEE MYSELF. AND WHEN I LOOOK IN THE EYYYYYYES OF THE WOMMMAN I LOVE. I see myself. there. tOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO YOUR KISS OF LOV” just. that whole bit.

also looooooove love love Laughter is the Best Medicine, By the Laws of Every Land, and every edition of Labyrinth. I have no standards when it comes to Labyrinth. I want them all. oh! and that part of born broken when they’re like “STRONG AS THE HEART/LOOK AT THE SMILE/OF YOUR MOTHERLESS *seagull meme* CHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIILLLLLLLLLLLD” i want to say Freak Show too but idk if it’s the song i like or if i’m just in love with that Thing mr. maskell does with his lack of bones in the london edition.

Least Favourite Song: I Have Never Seen A Face Like This. it’s good and fun and catchy but i get this weird sense of embarrassment and just don’t like the scene.

Favourite Act (If Applicable): Act Two! Mostly everything between the Wedding and them walking into the audience. But i also enjoy the dungeon scene for reasons that admittedly do include exactly what one would expect but also bc Gwyn just sitting there asking no questions and kind of dissociating through the whole thing and then just straight up fainting is a big mood and i respect it. and am gutted at not getting to see London’s take on it.

Favourite Ship: Dea/Gwyn

Least Favourite Ship: Josiana/Dirry-Moir

If There is Something I Would Change about The Musical: first of all and most importantly, crucially, critically and off utmost essentiality, at the part where he sees his mother after the duel and he goes and falls to his knees in front of her and she’s caressing his face and singing “please don’t take my little boy...” and he’s looking up at her with this utter exhaustion in his eyes, it is at that point that Gwynplaine Trelaw would address his mother as ‘mama’ in the most tender, exhausted, half-pleading and broken tone since the invention of speech, and it would be emotional devastating, so jot that down. either Ursus would know from the beginning that Dea’s his daughter, or it’d be like the book where she isn’t his biological daughter at all. Dea would get her own sort of ‘I Want’ song and would also sing the line “Surely I once had a mother” at some point, the “blood-red hair” thing would either not exist or just wouldn’t be tetris’d in so awkwardly, Dea and Gwyn’s kissing would be different- during the first Beauty and the Beast, she’d still kiss him on the mouth, over the bandages of course, bc Audience Perception, but outside of the performance, and especially for the Big Damn Kiss at the end, it would be shown that kissing has to work differently for the two of them. Dirry-Moir and Josiana wouldn’t wind up together in the end. They’d both show at least the beginnings of actual change in their character. Gwyn would have at least a couple lines about how messed-up society is and would have that going as a little background/secondary conflict. Probably handle his arrest differently and cut the meeting with Josiana/move it to later in the show and switch up the context a little. Let Dea go slam off at some point. Lord and Lady Trelaw sing the “strength to look into the eyes...” up through “...and see that they’re the same as you” with Gwyn and then walk offstage together, holding hands. hmmm...probably change up Please Don’t Take My Mother and The Drowning Song a little bit. Throw in a very short, dark reprise of Beauty and the Beast before Gwyn leaves Dea in the cart. He’d take the Beauty puppet with him, just kind of absently, and that would explain why “it was among your possessions” even tho Bark hadn’t yet swung by Ursus’ cart. I’d probably have Gwyn’s speaking voice, and his singing voice when addressing any character except Dea, be a bit chopped up. Maybe have him sing differently depending on whom he’s talking to, just to illustrate say during Freak Show how the audience is hearing him, vs. how Josiana’s feeling about him during Brand New World. Dea always gets his ‘real’ voice except in moments like the first Beauty and the Beast, which is an act. Ursus' arc would be treated differently in one of two ways. idk how exactly but the whole thing where Gwyn’s able to forgive Barkilphedro would be tweaked too just so the “I look at him and see myself” thing would make a little more sense. My version of this show would be like 3 hours long tbh also Gwyn would react to the realization that Ursus was there (thank you, London) and would have the decency for his voice to break on “when I look at the man who cut my face” (also thank you, London) while we’re thanking London, the proverbial third run in my heart also very much includes Gwyn’s hand-flapping and little noises. and would include some Shaky Trembly Acting from Gwyn as well at different parts of the show, especially toward the end, bc That Is One Tired Boy. and and and during the dungeon scene Gwyn would spend a lot of it looking specifically at Quake’s baton.

oh, and the otter on Josiana’s breakfast tray? there’d be a second one but it would be a whole Otter and it would be with Osric at all times bc i’ve decided that the Stokes-Croft kitten is actually an otter.

Ratings: 8/10 docked points for the stronger profanity since i personally am not a fan, and also the story has its definite flaws and things i don’t really care for. less overall technically satisfying than Hadestown BUT also caters to my exact interests in multiple ways, has excellent music, i love the story, Dea and Gwyn are beautiful together, it has definitely captured my heart and imagination and i absolutely thrive on all its layers and nuances. in my emotions it’s a 10.

Shadowbringers Chapter Afterwards

*contains Shadowbringers spoilers*

FINALE PART 2 of 4

As soon as Eagan's blade slips past the shattered barrier, it hits a new purple one, solidifying inches from Tius's head. "HALT!" A new female voice shouts. Tius opens his eyes, looking to the doorway in surprise. Yet another Garlean Soldier is standing there, but Kaoru and Hope are with her. Eagan looks over at the blonde woman. He stands straight, saluting her with the Garlean Salute.

"Ma'am! As you can see I have the boy in our grasp. All we needs do is-."

"Silence!" She orders. Eagan shuts his mouth, but gives her a look of confusion. This woman steps forward. "We're withdrawing. The base is abandoned and no longer suitable for use." Kaoru looks up at the woman quickly. She glances at Kaoru, not saying anything. But Tius knew something was up.

Eagan's jaw drops. "But... Ingrid..."

She glares at him. "Father left me in charge! And we shall find the culprit. But things have become a bit more..." she looks down at Tius, clinging to Alphinaud for dear life and ears back, fangs exposed. "... complex..." She sighs. "Withdraw immediately." Eagan inhales sharply. He takes a second to shoot one last red hot fiery glare down at Tius. He then nods to Ingrid and walks out of the room. Ingrid turns to leave as well. But she stops before Kaoru, not looking at her at all. "You best honor our deal, Eorzean... Or I'll make you regret it." She murmers. Kaoru scowls, looking down at the floor. "I'll be seeing you soon."

And with that, both of the Garleans were gone. Tius watches and waits a moment before they all hear the tavern doors slam outside the room. He gasps in pain and just as he does, a light blue shell surrounding the beds all shatter and shimmer away. He winces, easing his grip on Alphinaud and rolling onto his side on the floor. "Ah!" He groans. Kaoru dashes over.

"Tius!" She kneels down to his side. He looks up at her and smiles weakly.

"Had me... a little worried there..." He says sheepishly. Kaoru purses her eyebrows, clenching her teeth. He was in bad shape. Cuts and bruises everywhere. She lifts a hand and begins to power her aether.

Hope slides over, powering her aether as well. "He's lost alot of blood, and used Force Field from the looks of his aether..." Kaoru props Tius's head up on her knees. She looks down with tears in her eyes as he slips in and out of consciousness. Meanwhile, Arenvald limps into the tavern, spying the chaos of the other adventurers running in and out of the infirmary.

Krile spots him and runs up to him. "Arenvald!" He falls into a heap onto the floor, sitting on his haunches and breathing unsteady. Krile powers her aether, beginning to heal him. "How did you fare?"

"I was able to hold them off. But they withdrew a few moments before I came running back." Arenvald looks to the doorway of the infirmary. "Did they..." Krile shakes her head, smiling a small smile of relief.

"Nay, the Scions are all alive." She scowls, now a serious look on her face. "However, Tius is in critical condition. Kaoru and Hope are doing their best to heal him." Krile sighs. "He got some heavy injuries trying to save Alphinaud. And used the Force Field spell a few times."

In the room, Kaoru cradles Tius, who is now fully unconscious, but healing smoothly. Hope sighs, smiling down at him. "He's gonna be fine. He'll need tons of rest and maybe some herbal ointments for the bigger cuts. But they're healed for the most part." Kaoru looks at the cut on his face. It'll most like leave a scar, along with the rest of them...

Kaoru watches as Hoary Boulder places Alphinaud back into his cot. Hope finishes healing, her aether fading away. She wipes the sweat from her brow. "Hope... I need you to promise me something?" Hope cocks an eyebrow, looking at her. Kaoru gives Hope a small but sad looking smile. "Stay with Alphinaud on the First for a spell?" Hope couldn't figure out why the sudden change in Kaoru happened. But she nodded once, hesitantly.

"S-Sure..." Hope says. She clears her throat. "I mean, of course!" She tells her, sounding a bit more confident. Kaoru looks back at Tius with a conflicted face.

Tius opens his eyes. He could feel his head pounding. And everything hurt and was sore. It hurt even to turn his head. But he did so. And to his left was Alisaie's cot. He was in the infirmary, go figure. But Hope sat next to his cot, reading a tome. She looks at him as he attempts to sit up. "I wouldn't if I were you..." Hope tells him, standing enough to place a hand on his shoulder to keep him on the bed. "You'll need your rest. You've been out for a whole day already."

Tius winces a little, his ears drawing back in pain. "Ah... Is Alphy safe?"

Hope chuckles a little. "Yes. You did good. But using that spell with all the wounds you had took it's toll on you." Hope points to the right side of her jaw. "And that's gonna scar up." He slumps back, his head thumping against the pillow.

Tius groans, feeling the scar on his face. "My beautiful faaaaaaace~..." He whines. Hope can't tell if he's joking or genuinely upset about that fact. He takes a second before looking over at Hope. "What happened after?"

Hope sighs. "The Garleans withdrew. Haven't heard from them since. But..." Hope looks away. "Tius... There's something you should know about Kaoru..." Hope sat back down on her seat.

Tius cocks an eyebrow. "Huh?"

Hope looks at him now, a look of uncertainty coming over her face. "She went with them..." Tius bolts up in the bed. A little too quickly, since as soon as he does, he grabs the front of his head, hissing in pain with a grimace. "Easy!" Hope leans forward to try and put her hand on his shoulder again.

But he bats her hand away, clearly frustrated. Hope looks to the side, trying not to snap at him, but not hiding her annoyance. "Tell me that's a joke..."

"Yes, because that's TOTALLY something to JOKE about..." Hope says, clenching her fists. Tius tsks. Hope scoffs at him. "Look, she had no choice!" Tius scowls a bit. Hope crosses her arms, closing her eyes to try and compose herself. "Kaoru struck up a deal with the Soldier woman. It's for Alph-..." Hope stops, realizing what she was about to say.

Tius scoffs now, an irritated laugh escaping his lips. "'For Alphinaud', right?" Silence between them. Hope wasn't sure what to say. And Tius didn't seem to be in a chatting mood. "Can I..." Tius starts. "Have a moment alone?" Hope sighs a little. But she smiles sadly to him.

"Of course." She says. She gestures to the table next to him. On it was a letter, Kaoru's swirly yet elegant handwriting spelling "Tius" on the front in ink. "She left that for you." Hope walks to the door. She opens it and pauses. "I'll be right outside when you're ready to talk." And with that, Tius was left alone in the Infirmary.

Tius sits there for several moments, curled up in a ball in the cot's blanket. He couldn't help but feel he was being a little selfish. He'd known that the twins would be a big part of her life. They were a packaged deal whether she willed it or no. And Urianger telling him about the prophecy cast on them at a young age only helped him decide that much quicker. Caring for her meant caring for the twins. And the other way around too. Tius looks at the scratch on his forearm and exhales into a sigh.

He licks it a little and then fusses with his hair. All while staring at the envelope on the bed stand. He stops again before scoffing and sitting on the edge of the cot. Tius grabs the letter and rips the top of the envelope open.

reaction post typed while watching SPN 14x07 “Unhuman Nature”

.......by some miracle, a good deadly duo episode???????

04:41pm

fair warning, i am feeling some sort of way, so this post may be some sort of something

gotta go get some food first

-

04:56

okayyyyyyyyyy let’s see what we have here. @ deadly duo, please don’t be your usual selves........

edit: wish came true!!!!

-

05:01

the detail with cas’ veins and bones is cool

but it’s not his blood or muscles that are glowing (if it were, his bones would be obscured by light), so what’s glowing exactly?

-

05:04

dean looks REALLY good here

...yknow, besides the face

good jacket collar

also this episode so far is great, i guess the good one of the pair wrote this bit

-

dean’s flip-flopping on 2000, ‘99, 2000,

 probably the difference between jack being legal or not

-

nurse: “cause of death?”

cas: “he was stabbed through the heart and he exploded”

every time cas speaks i am reminded why i love him

-

05:07

oh no jack’s three dads are so worried

i love their love

god i’m so glad they decided to add jack as a character, this show needed a child

i mean it was either that or a dog but i guess a person is better for conversation

.......i typed that and then went,, mm??, questionable

-

05:10

a thing i didn’t find believable about that hospital thing: any time i’ve been a very sick patient, the nurses STILL demand they speak to me and not a guardian, even if i can barely talk.

-

05:12

this diane fargo lady has a beautiful voice and i like how her face is shaped to match her voice

-

05:13

can see her nose ring hole

yeah this actress seems like she’d wear a nose ring

-

05:18

what i wanna know is who’s paying for the insurance and who filled out all the forms

when i was in hospital in the states there were like 25 forms before they could do ANYTHING

-

05:20

sam: “he’s ....uh............... lucifer’s son--

rowena: ???!?!! “goodbye”

i love her

-

05:36

-

05:38

what happened to the bunker being full of people?

-

05:39

cas: “losing a son feels different”

i just imagined dean, cas, and sam all crowded around a little swaddled newborn baby jack, all cradling him together

ouch my feelings ;~;

-

05:30

mm.......... so far this episode doesn’t feel at all like a deadly duo episode

the lucifer stuff does, absolutely, but the black lady outside the club didn’t actually die, even though we all feared for her

they’re telling 2 stories, not 12

i find this interesting

-

05:52

for the millionth time, i am awed by his beauty

this looks familiar, is this the same trailer they used for the lady who talked about fairies and had tiny teacups?

or maybe all trailers look the same

-

05:54

omg cas grunting as he slides onto the floor

-

05:55

also why the hell is this healer actually interesting?

honestly it’s almost like the deadly duo didn’t write this episode at all

and/or this particular character was created by someone else, intended for use in multiple episodes

yeah that sounds more likely

-

05:58

“tell the winchesters they owe me”

yeah someone else wrote this guy for a later plot point

it’s kind of sad that this pair is so bad at writing interesting characters that it’s obvious when they didn’t create one

-

06:08

if gabriel’s archangel grace fixes jack then technically his uncle saved him and that’s cool

-

06:11

they must ruin so many perfectly good vintage rugs with chocolate syrup while making this show

-

06:14

aw man it’s over

that was surprisingly great and i enjoyed it a lot

a good number of my favourite characters and a simple, emotionally-driven plot

weirdly i even found the lucifer thing interesting?

i am worried about jack - but again, i think he’ll ultimately be fine. unless he’s not, in which case, i hate this show

ahh this was just kinda nice to watch?

god i really must be in a weird mood if “your child is dying + traumatised man murders people” was a feel-good story for me

eh, 9.7/10? it wasn’t a favourite but i didn’t dislike it at all

istg the deadly duo must’ve had a talking-to about murdering their minority characters, since there were two entire women of colour, both had speaking parts and didn’t die. (no names though, boo)

best thing was seeing dean, cas, sam, and rowena all working together to look after jack, i love that SO MUCH

and i always relate to sick or dying characters tbh. cough cough must sit down, it me

OUAT 2x20: Rewatch Blog

Hey, everybody! I’m back with another liveblog of me rewatching Once Upon a Time! I can tell you’re all really excited to get into this episode, which is entitled “The Evil Queen” - Ooooh, exciting!

Wait, what’s that? You’re wondering where the liveblogs for 2x16 through 2x19 are? Look buddy, I don’t come into your house and ask where your liveblogs are. I just... I don’t know, man. I can’t read suddenly.

There is one for 2x19, actually... but I don’t recommend reading it.

Anyway! Let’s get on with the show...!

“Actually, I prefer it with the lights on.” Classic line. Classic, classic.

Also, I love the way you can see flashes of his actual discomfort and frustration throughout this scene, even though he’s trying to play it cool and be all sassy - particularly when the bag’s yanked off of his head. Mmmm... Love that look.

Ah, love this whole scene. Gooooood scene.

Oh, a Regina flashback. Lovely. Nice outfit, dear.

“Kill them all.” Ooooh, that’s pretty dark. Still a great outfit, though.

“Are we really going to leave Regina behind?” I mean, it’s not like that’s a bad idea, Snow. It’s not like she’s your bestie or something and you guys had a little tiff here. At this point, there’s really no reason for you to be worrying about her feelings if you leave her behi-

“Henry won’t like it.” OH, WAIT A TICK. That’s right. You’re just going to jump to another realm with the woman’s child and not tell her. At least they seem conflicted about how to handle the situation in this scene. I mean, yeah, it’s a bad situation and it’s hard to know what they should do. At least the writers are having them acknowledge that in this scene.

“I don’t think so.” I can never unsee the evil panda blooper... AND I WOULDN’T WANT TO <3

That necklace looks like it’s made out of safety pins, though.

I love it when Regina and Rumple banter, though. They’re such fun to watch - two sociopaths bickering over trade agreements and other nonsense. Always a good time :D

Okay, Regina... You had me all the way up to “They die.” XD Like, did she reeeeally think that would work?! This is all just... uncharacteristically stupid right here. I mean, Henry’s not going to go for this. Why would she think he would?

“What I truly am - a hero.” “Not if you kill everyone.” DUUUUUUUH.

“How could I ever love anyone who would do such horrible things?” The writing in this episode is really kinda... weird? Like, if that was honestly where they wanted to put Henry’s character, that would negate, like, 99% of the rest of the series. Sometimes they just make characters say totally naff things.

“Why would you even tell me this?” MILLION DOLLAR QUESTION.

“Because I don’t have anyone else to talk to.” UNEXPECTED SADNESS.

This scene’s like a car crash. It shouldn’t have ever happened and is just plain unpleasant for everyone involved. I’m gonna erase it from my own memory.

Seriously, this writing is just... Regina’s smarter than this entire scene. The initial innocence over how hated she is was cute, sure, but she’s smarter than to forget she’s in disguise and let herself come off as a crazy woman.

“And this is where I grow my pot...”

“Captain...” Why does she look/sound pleased? My HQ heart rejoices :D

“...Once you realized your murder didn’t take.” Only on this show, haha. On any other show, that line would be hilarious.

She actually looks concerned about him having been abducted :D Shut up, I know I’m imagining things. JUST SHUT UP AND LEAVE ME BE.

“I took up with your mother for a reason.” And that’s because I am a lonely sub and I need the guidance of a dominating woman to reach my full potential. “Perhaps the three of us could re-establish an alliance.” Imagine how I would thrive under the care of TWO Dommes!

Shut up, that’s totally how the scene went.

Aww... Poor bunny’s sad that Cora died :( I mean, I know he’s faking just about everything in this scene, but he does look genuinely saddened by the news, and I like to think he was.

I really wish Hook had been sincere in this scene. They both need friends, and here they are and it seems like the start of something nice, and... It disappointed me on first watch, and on each and every subsequent one, when it ends up that he was playing her :(

I mean, you’d think he’d go for her plan, seeing as it will result in the end of Rumplestiltskin... and he has more history and more reason to side with her than with Tamara/Greg.

Well, maybe he would’ve changed his mind and sided with her, if... you know.

Shouldn’t Emma’s superpower have told her straight out that Tamara was lying to her when she said she could trust her?

Oh, okay good. It did. And she’s telling Mary Margaret about it.

Who... doesn’t believe her. Great. Wonderful. THIS IS HOW SHIT HAPPENS, PEOPLE. This is how bad people get away with doing that shit.

Oh, alright, that’s a plausible reason for keeping a lid on things. I GUESS.

BAHAHAHAHAHA HENRY. “I heard everything.” THANK GOD, KID.

He’s still limping. How precious <3

BADASS SNOW WHITE TO THE RESCUUUUUUE!

Alright, I forgive you for being a stick in the mud when your kid tries to tell you her concerns about the newcomer in town who is obviously up to no good.

Hahahaha, he’s so put out by the fucking elevator.

Oh, he played her so well, getting her to put that cuff on herself.

But really, babe, maybe you shouldn’t stand so close to the edge of that cliff there, especially with the Evil Queen standing right there with you. You know you can’t really trust her, right? I mean-

LOOK AT HIM FLYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

Ooooh, that was some thud. That had to hurt.

AHHHHHHHH I LOVE THE GENUINE FEAR ON HIS FAAAAAAACE.

How does he know she’s Maleficent, though? I mean, she looks nothing like Maleficent did in the Enchanted Forest, even if he had met her back there... And why would he know anything about her being in the basement of the library?

Still a great one-liner, though.

She’s kinda super creepy, isn’t she? And that screaming. Yikes.

WOW, THAT WAS SOME BLOW. LOOKIT HIM FLY.

He looks like he’s in a lot of pain... Poor bunny. :D

Ahhh... That’s a sad scene between Snow and Regina Wilma T_T

“I need a why? You never need a why!” HAHAHAHA You tell him.

Umm. How do praying mantises “hide in plain sight” tho?

Oh, gosh, I love Emma teaching Henry sneaky sneakster moves.

Hahahahahaha. “Oh, hell no, I taught her that!” XD

More feels between Snow and Regina Wilma...

“Startling, aren’t I?” Yes, you are, baby. “Some people say... striking.”

“You couldn’t have survived that.” And yet... XD

“And honestly, I almost put a stop to my plan.” I like to think he would’ve. I like to think he was actually opening up to her when he was talking about revenge, and that he might’ve - might’ve - sided with her instead of them, had she not, you know, thrown him off a cliff to his almost-certain demise XD

I’d still REALLY like to know how Greg and Tamara saved him from Maleficent, tho. I mean, sure, they have a way against magic, but it seems to consist entirely of their little cuff thing - and I’m pretty sure Maleficent wasn’t in the mood for new accessories. Also, we find out later that they only have the one cuff, so...

“I said you could call - didn’t say I’d answer!” Never change, Rumple XD

Why does the actress in the mirror shots keep looking... happy? XD Regina is not happy at this moment. Whoever or whatever she looks like, she ought to at least look grumpy.

Ugh. I still don’t like Greg and Tamara. They’re just... annoying to me.

“Bag her.” Hahaha, Greg, you fucking tool. Who says that?

Oh, that’s the end!

PEW PEW PEW PEW PEEEEEEEEEW

plain text version here. 

oh omki, your hair. conditioner is a thing. please, use it. 😐😐😐

rudra, what do you mean “samajh nahi aa raha ki shivaay bhaiyya ko kya ho gaya hai?” you know perfectly well. heart attack waale din toh bade dialogue maar raha tha doctor aur pinky ke saamne. 😒😒😒

oh, three months, one heart attack and multiple half-assed suicide attempts later, om is like “hmmmm maybe we shouldn’t have listened to anika’s stupidass fucking plan???? maaaybe, perhaps, shaaayad it was a mistake? 🤔🤔🤔”

i swear to god, stupidity is THE MOST dominant oberoi trait. mann toh karr raha hai in dono ke sarrrr patak doon. 😠😠😠

lmaoooooooo omRu’s bitch faces at pinky’s demands. 😆😆😆

daaaaaaamn, omki ka paara chad raha hai. this gonna be goooooooood. 😊😊😊

“humein jhoot bolna nahi aata, aur agar sach kahenge, toh badtameez kehlaayenge.” 

DIAAAAAAAAALOGUE! WAAAAH, MERE SHERRRR! WAAAAAAAAAH! 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

aaj omRu ka turn nikla hai, to fuck pinky uppppp. lovingggggg it. go for it boys! KILL HER! 😈😈😈

“shivaay toh aapka beta ban gaya, lekin aap shivaay ki maa nahi ban payi. woh kehte hai, janam dene waale se paalne wala bada hota hai, lekin aapne toh woh bhi galat saabit kar liya.” 

DAMNNNNNNNNNNNN OMKARA, YOU ARE FUCKIN’ UNSTOPPABLE TODAY. 😧😧😧😧

KHULE BAAL, AANKHON MEIN RIGHTEOUS ANGER - MERAAAAAAA PURAANA OMKARAAAAAA WAAPASSS AAA GAYA! WOH AAAA GAYAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!  MAIN JAANTI THI WOH EK NA EK DIN LAUT AAYEGA! MERI BARSON KI TAPASYA USSE WAAPAS LE AAYI HAI!!!!!!! 😫😫😫😫😫😫

feeling bit like rakhee in karan arjun right now. 😌😌😌

“har insaan ki zindagi mein maa ki jagah alag hoti hai aur biwi ki jagah alag.” 

lo. rudra ko bhi yeh baat pata hai. now there’s no excuse. 😕😕😕

“aapko jo karna tha, aapne kar liya choti maa, BAS! AB JO KARNA HAI WOH HUM KARENGE CHOTI MAA, AUR AAPKO BEECH MEIN AANE KI ZAROORAT NAHI HAI. HUM APNE BHAI KO BIKHARNE NAHI DENGE.”

“aaj tak shivaay om aur ru ko sambhaalte aaya hai. lekin ab, om aur ru shivaay ko sambhaalenge. hum apne bhai ko waapas laayenge.”

MIC DROP. OMRU OUTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT!!!! 😎😎😎

pfffffffffttt great. was on an all-time high from that scene and saw ragini, and instantly, my buzz has been killed. 😒😒😒

lmaoooooooo, popatttttttt. 😂😂😂

ok, i have a feeling additi has reasonably good comic timing. wish they’d use that more. 😕😕😕

also, is this why shivaay’s opting to spend the night in jail tonight? so he has a reasonable excuse to not hang with ragini? 🤔🤔🤔

#introvertIssues #relatable 

girllllllllll, maybe this time, TURN AROUND FIRST? 😐😐😐

lmaoooooooo, can the staff stop being so condescending to poor ragini? 😂😂😂

ok can’t deny i’m loling a little right now at her passive aggressive hammy speech. 😆😆😆

i really hope this is the direction they decide to take her character. i’d love a comic touch to ragini’s villainous side, instead of just INTENSE UNBLINKING PSYCHO. it’s just more entertaining to watch. 😇😇😇

WHAT THE FUCKKKKKKKKK IS THIS SHIRT ANIKA??? MATLAB, I GET YOU’RE SAD AND ALL, BUT GIRL. COME ON. 😟😟😟

awww, baby. no cry. he didn’t mean it. jalta hai tumse, bas. he doesn’t look halfffff as fabulous post-breakup as you do. 😪😪😪

tum? kaun tum? OMRU? SAMAR? ADVAY?!?!?! WHO???? 😧😧😧

lo, pooori family colour coordination mein khadi hai shivaay ke swaagat mein. 😐😐😐

damn, hawaalat ki ek raat se shivaay’s calmed down by 400%, and gives no fucks about khaandaan ka naam. 😗😗😗

bloody hell, since episode 1 i’ve been screaming @ TPTB to put his crazy ass in jail. ladka kab ka sudhar gaya hota. 🙄🙄🙄

pft... as if by staying in jail you “solved” that problem. all you did was stay up all night on the super-uncomfortable floor, overthinking about it. you stupid boy. 😑😑😑

chandiniiii? chameli? (i can never remember the name of her chappal. just know it’s something with CH...) 🤔🤔🤔

oh ho shivaay, chappal yahaan hai, toh zaahir si baat hai ki chappal pehehnne waali bhi yahin kahin hogi. 🙄🙄🙄

WAZZZZZZZZZZZZA QUEEEEEEEEEEN! ��😍😍

dayuuuuumm, that super subtle way he checked her out from bottom to top though. sex eyes 100%. keep it in your pants, billu! 😏😏😏

chandini! i was right! 😊😊😊

also lol, what a set-up, girl! like you came into the house, had a tete-a-tete with the family, and left your chappal there for shivaay to find, and thus make an entry to impress him? matlab, waaah. you’ve become justttttt as extra as patidev. 😂😂😂

tumhaaara gharrrr, mera gharrr, what difference does it maaaake??? youuu bothhh belong to each other, toh in cheezon ke baare mein behas kyun karna? just go into YOUR (collective) bedroom and bang. 😚😚😚

his face, man. his faaaaaaace. i got an ask about this, so i’ll go into greater detail there. 🙂🙂🙂

homegirl has honeddddd her “push shivaay’s buttons” skillz to the max over last three months. 😎😎😎

god this scene has me sitting here like: 

OMG IT’S AN ANIRU COLLABORATION. BESTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT. 😅😅😅

i am lovingggggggg her calm and composed, sultry deep voice. 😍😍😍

she’s gotta know that it drives patidev craaaazy for her, and is using it on purpose. 😏😏😏

... how did she BUY oberoi mansion if it wasn’t up for sale???? 🤔🤔🤔

lovinggggggg pinky’s outrage. 😈😈😈

anika’s high and mighty manner has shivaay so turned on, it’s not even funny. uska bas chale, he’d have his way with her on the coffee table that she had her foot on 2 seconds ago. 😚😚😚

her confidence and his calm and collected (and thus, most un-shivaay-like) reactions have me feeling this is yet another one of their “collaborations”? 😯😯😯

which... i know doesn’t work at allll, plot-wise... but dude, i am just such a sucker for these two and their role play, i’m not even mad. i’m just so hyped from this scene, i’m sitting here like:

LMAO ANIKA’S FACE AT PINKY LIKE “WHATCHOO GONNA DO ABOUT IT, MUMMEH????” 😈😈😈

yuck, ASR. kya champu hairstyle banaye rakha hai? don’t you know that this is a set of exceptionally amazing hair? 😖😖😖

also that suit. jesus. 🤢🤢🤢 it’s like he strolled off the sets of miami vice. (allahabad vice?) 

and is he wearing surma????? maaaan, kahan clean cut hottie arnav, aur kahan yeh jail se choota kaidi look? zameen aur aasmaan ka faraq. 😔😔😔

now can we put an end to the “shivaay is short” jokes? as i suspected, he’s justtttt as tall as arnav! if nothing, shivaay has maybe half an inch ON him, thanks to the gravity-defying floofy hair. 😕😕😕

lmao the firsttttt thing ASR has to say to old friend SSO is a count of how many phones he’s broken. 😆😆😆

may it be noted that ek sau chauhatar (174) is the official number, as per canon. up from in 78 in episode 2. 

96 phones in a year. that’s almost 2 phones a week. shivaay is single handedly keeping apple’s india market alive. 😌😌😌

ok, i’m a sucker for both these stupid men’s smiles. so here: 

snort, meta reference to ASR being out of commission after 8 30 pm. (IPKKND shall air from 8 - 8 30.) 😂😂😂

SO MUCH META. SO MUCH. I AM DYING HERE. 😁😁😁

ok ladkiYAAAN nahi, exactly ONE ladki has said you have kanji aankhein that are satrangi. and she’s your wife. she’s obligated to gas you up.  zyaada udne ki zaroorat nahi hai. 🙄🙄🙄

“LET ME SEE”!?!? OMG??????????????? 😧😧😧

UM OK, were our two fav beautiful-eyed sociopaths about to kiss??? I BELIEVE THEY WEREEEEE!!!!!!!!! ANIKA WHO???????? CHANDINI WHAT? HETEROSEXUALITY WHERE????????? 🙃🙃🙃

personal headcanon: they’re college friends, who were bi-curious and experimented... otherwise, explain the totally casual touching (shivaay adjusting advay’s coat, advay’s hand on shivaay’s shoulder drawing him in), and the sex eyes they just made at each other to me. EXPLAIN! YOU CAN’T!!!!!!!!!! 👬🏽👬🏽👬🏽

is advay talking about anika... or HIMSELF???? 😐😐😐

MOAR SOFT SEX EYES. 👀👀👀

oh. so shivaay is fully aware of advay’s “mission”? 😗😗😗

i bet they’re both part of some sort of “4 Lions Men” forum/newsletter thing, where they keep up with each others’ news, and share the latest techniques in grabbing, arm-twisting, throwing aukaat-related insults, how to compel a woman to marry you, etc. 😒😒😒

like... i know ASR is talking about anika, but i can’t help but frame every passive aggressive thing he’s saying about love as a reference to himself. 😌😌😌

(jesus christ i ship this so fucking much.) 💘💘💘

ship name: #YYSinghs (get it? Vaay-Vay.) 😊😊😊

wait is advay pronounced “ad-way” or “ad-why”? if it’s the former, then ship name is #VaayVayOrTheHighway. 🙃🙃🙃

lmao ok advay, that insertion of show name line was a little clunkyyy and forced. try harder, please. 🙄🙄🙄

even your boyfriend shivaay wasn’t impressed. he’s like “kar liya promotion? ab footage khaana bandh kar aur phuttt yahan se. 😒😒😒”

lmaoooo more meta. 😄😄😄

that wink! 😆😆😆

ouff advay, kahaan i want you to make a move on our man here, and here you’re pushing anika on him. 😤😤😤

chalo, tum naa sahi, toh i’ll take her. i’ll try and make my peace with it. 😕😕😕 heterosexuality wins again. ugh. 🙄🙄🙄

daaaaaaaaaaaaaamn omRu. “jo bhi karna hai ab hum karenge”, indeed! I FUCKING LOVE ITTTTTTTT. 😘😘😘

also queen be haq jamaaoing like no one’s business. get it girl. GET ITTTTTTTTT! 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽

[dangermousie]

So, she thinks he tried to off her father and says she’s had enough and throws her wedding ring at him and walks away. 

1. His faaaaaaace! It’s pretty significant that with all his “I am a vengeance machine heare me roar,” he never even though of that - not even when he was screaming at her in the morgue. She is the one who did it. He never could.

2. Yeah. the are both understandably irrational when their loved ones are threatened - he lost it after his mom’s death and now here she is returning the favor.  

[dangermousie]

Random thoughts on eps 53-54

1. Of course Donghua tells her family not to tell Feng Jiu he was there (she was delirious so she won’t remember it anyway). Of course. it wouldn’t be an OTP of mine if there wasn’t constant masochism. Though it’s hard to claim it’s noble idiocy when them hooking up is both literally banned by fate and will probably lead to some terrifying cataclysm (as they explained earlier, he’s such a major deity that his dying, which is what would happen if he went against fate, would totally create some major mess within the realms.) Still, boo!

2. Just how tall is Vengo Gao? I never really paid attention before because Dilraba Dilmurat is so diminutive, but in the scene with the fox clan, he towers pretty much over everybody.

3. Bai Qian remembering she was Su Su and going all Kill Bill on Su Jin was made of pure amazing wish fulfillment. Love it love it love it. But you cannot ditch Ye Hua, lady. You cannot break his heart. He’s m n1 precious in this drama!

4. Feng Jiu still wins award for most stubborn. She wakes up after being half dead and instead of giving up on Donghua, you know - the dude she cannot have due to divine will or whatever little insignificant thing like that - she tells Bai Qian that this made her realize something - she has a long time to figure out how to get around this. That girl should have been a mountie because she always gets her man. It’s just as well she’s a nice person because otherwise she’d be 100x scarier than Su Jin.

5. I love Ye Hua in every incarnation. His mortal death made me get teary. Which is funny because I feel nothing for Mo Yuan. Nice dude, glad he’s not dead, don’t care about him at all. Weird.

6. Donghua may think he will give Feng Jiu up but his faaaaaaace when he sees her arguing with the guards! And he totally inserts himself into that whole beef between Celestial Realm and Qing Qiu totally for Feng Jiu’s sake. Be good to your in-laws, dude! :P
