Shout out to the non-partnering people out there who want to spend their lives with a friend and live with them without it being a QPR or partnership of any kind.

cross-posting my ii finale review from twt to here too. guys rambling on twt SUCKS >:( had to break i tup into TEN POSTS ARE YUO FOR RRAL

anyway.

WAITT im in a ranting mood ok. im actually rlly Happy NOT HAPPY uhmmm satisfied but NOT SATISFIED EITHER ughh. im. glad the choice was for mephone 4 to leave. i like that its left open, for the same reason i like why marshmallow leaving in ep 11 was written so definitively. she wanted to get away from the show. and so she Did, completely. she wasnt even in the Comics after that!! she got what she wanted, kind of, sort of. and i feel the same way abt mephone too. he NEEDED to step back from it all, for himself and the people around him, imo. i mean, like he says, he only Made the show to get one up on cobs, and now cobs is gone and mephone needs to figure out who he is Without cobs' influence anymore. i think this is ultimately good for him, the best that couldve happened. and im not upset the contestants aren't sad enough, or whatever. becuz mephones story is Explicitly one abt parental abuse, and like it or not he kind of did the same thing to the contestants that cobs did to him, just in ykno. kind of different ways. they have complicated feelings towards each other and im not surprised most of them didnt react. i doubt most of them knew What to do at all given the situation! i think it was a rlly good choice, narratively speaking. i think it represents the kind of mixed emotions that parental abuse can cause, esp when its in mephones case where it was rlly just a super unfortunate circumstance. ik mephone isnt rlly their parental figure and the crew has stated that he isnt their dad, which i agree with! i like how complex their relationships all are. they feel more real that way? i guess? idk.

sorry this is all becuz i saw a post that read how someone was sad mephone left his support system. but like. the contestants dont rlly Want to be that for him, and not even rlly for each other all the way either, and they dont Have to be. a lot of the cast arent friends and i like that perspective! yeah it sucks that mephone left them, but they all have rlly mixed emotions abt each other, i feel. mephone was in a position of authority that he would occasionally abuse, just out of inexperience and naivete. so the feeling left over is complicated. MUCH LIKE [insert anecdote from my childhood. waves hands nonchalantly to avoid revealing too much abt my personal life].

it resonated with me. i can see a lot of my own relationships reflected in mephone's with the contestants. so YEAH i think the ending was rlly good ^_^ it reminded me a lot of the sturggles i have both as someone with. Not Ideal but also Not Terrible parents. like cobs was inarguably awful, and i think partly mephone thought he couldnt be as bad becuz he wasnt Like That, but it made him underestimate his actions and he ended up overlooking a lot of stuff and hurting his contestants in more emotional ways. Not That I Would Know Anything About That Ha Ha. and now he feels bad. but he doesnt know how to fix it, because you Cant fix it, not without significant personal growth that he seems to recognize Isnt going to happen if he sticks around. so he leaves. for himself, but i think for the contestants also. he doesnt know how to apologize, and i think he feels really guilty too. and the contestants cant say anything becuz Its True and Hes Right, and hoenstly a few of them are probably Happy to see him go too, so they let him leave. idk. its just weird living in that middle space where someone who deeply loves you is also someone whos caused a Lot of your problems. I think part of mephones problem too is that he views them as characters on his show. not like entirely, they're People to him of course, not like how cobs treats his creations. but they also serve a purpose to mephone, to be his friends and entertain him. i do think he genuinely cares about them but i think he also probably has kind of an objectification of them in his mind? uhm. Not That I Would Kno- [gets shot]

tl;dr like. mephone didnt mean to hurt the contestants, but he did because of tragic events beyond his control. but that cant excuse his actions and its a hard situation to fix. tbh there isnt rlly a solution. so him leaving felt profound and understandable. there COULD be a reconciliation, another spin-off series to elaborate and write in a redemption arc. but for now there Isnt. and i dont think there rlly Has to be? i like the bittersweetness. idk. anyway rant over Probably Maybe Idk

Compiling some of the Chuck pictures I took this year 🔥 Really took him everywhere I possibly could because he cost me an arm (still the best purchase I've ever made + supporting artists is cool.)

I keep refreshing search results for new info on the CEO shooter and like honestly I don't even know why because I see it as a GOOD thing, actually, that new information is not coming out rapidly. Like idek what I'm hoping for, like they're not gonna give a statement like "Welp, we tried but we're just gonna give up actually!" especially not in the first week!! The fact that it's been over a day and no real new info has released is actually promising, the articles say like '3 hours ago' but they just keep rerunning the same info we've been seeing. May they never find that man.

I am now mature enough to admit what I couldn't when I was younger and more pretentious, and that is that Into You by Ariana Grande is a bop

Sadie/Grace + kiss in a dream?

I am so looking forward to answering all your amazing prompts during work today… one down!!!! This was supposed to be sleepy cuddling and then I thought about Sadie making fun of Grace for sleeping in a campaign tee and they just got out of hand 🤷🏼‍♀️

Sadie feels so lost in Grace’s touch that she’s not sure anymore where her own body ends and Grace’s begins. She stretches toward the taller woman, seeking out kiss after kiss until they’re hardly even separating anymore, just sinking into each other and reveling in the warmth of lips and teeth and shaky breath. Grace presses her against a wall and Sadie can’t quite tell where they are or what surface she’s pinned against, but she doesn’t really care, not with the way Grace is saying her name.

“Sadie.”

Huh. They’re still kissing. Grace hasn’t pulled away enough to speak.

“Sadie.”

Sadie feels her brow creasing, the words pulling her away from the sensations.

“Sadie, if you don’t turn off your alarm right fucking now, I’m going to smash your goddamn phone.”

Slowly, Sadie realizes she’s lying against a soft, warm mattress instead of a rough, solid wall. She yawns. “Damn, I was having such a fun dream…”

Grace emerges from the blankets next to her looking rumpled and grumpy. “Phone.”

Finally, Sadie tunes into the lilting chime emitting from somewhere on the floor between the nightstand and the bed. She fishes her phone up by the charging cord and taps the snooze button. “Sorry.”

“If I’m gonna be the one waking you up, you might as well just wait for my alarm,” Grace harrumphs, rolling so that she flops half on top of Sadie and burying her nose in her neck.

Sadie practically purrs under her weight. “I thought the point of setting my own alarm was to sneak out of here before we actually have to get up.”

“I don’t see you getting up,” Grace points out. Her thumb is tickling Sadie’s hipbone, and Sadie feels the beginnings of the same warmth that had been suffused through her dream.

“Maybe that’s just ‘cause you’re smushing me,” Sadie teases, sliding her hands under Grace’s faded blue t-shirt. “Take this off.”

Grace smirks down at her, her fingers running over her ribcage. “Was Gore too conservative for you?”

“Maybe I just don’t need to make out with you while you’re wearing a shirt from a candidate who ran for president the year I was born,” Sadie fires back. Sure enough, her taunt about her age has Grace pinning her hips, their legs tangling together.

“This shirt is from 2000, you cunt,” she retorts, laughing in Sadie’s ear. The hair on the back of Sadie’s neck raises. “If you wanna see me topless, just say so.”

Sadie smirks. “Now do you see why I set my alarm earlier than yours?”

Grace nods, then yanks the shirt over her head, running a hand through her tousled curls with a self-satisfied grin. “Maybe so. But I’m guessing this is better than your dream.”

It’s a good point, considering Sadie doesn’t remember any clear visuals from the dream. “Okay, maybe.”

Grace traces the line of Sadie’s jaw with two fingers. “We’ve only got about fifteen minutes until my alarm goes off…”

Sadie grins, already riding the high of Grace just touching her. “Better than nothing.”

Grace reaches to peel Sadie’s shirt off this time. “So, tell me about this dream…”

You know what at this point I feel like maybe I just need to either get institutionalised again or start an internship again because I feel like I am getting nothing.
