Red Velvet Cheesecake

Hello ! I positively adore the running joke of Idia unknowingly finding Lilia to be the coolest guy ever whenever he doesn't know it's him, like when Silver described his father, or obviously with muscle red. I can't say what'd be funnier, Idia finding out his online best friend is actually Lilia, resident spooky hyper fairy; or them both never finding out, and it'd become even more ridiculous as time goes on. How do you think it'll play out ? You're always so on point

(Also, though it makes sense, I'm still devastated bat boy didn't get a ticket for the Halloween skeleton train : ( does anyone mentions him at some point ? Like how he'd have fit right in with all those Halloween town little freaks, and how he'd have impressed them with his spooks and scared techniques; after all he's been every Briar Valley's children worst fear on Halloween for centuries. I'm on the eng server and I didn't wanna spoil myself by watching the whole thing on youtube)

Have a nice day !

you and me both, Idia and Lilia being oblivious online BFFs (+ Idia being incredibly intimidated any time Silver brings up his jock gamer dad) is my favorite running joke/subplot. 🤝 it's SO good, to the point where I also am unsure if I actually want it to ever be resolved or not...maybe, like, as a post-canon stinger or something? everyone's standing around covered in overblot ink, and Idia and Lilia's phones go off at the same time...

(legit I do think this is part of why Idia couldn't be present for Lilia's dream, because for some reason Lilia decided he was going to just. embody his past self online. he probably quotes his own battle strategies or whatever in the middle of boss fights. Idia didn't pick up on the whole "oh how weird that we both live on a super remote island" thing, but he would spend thirty seconds listening to General Lilia describing siege warfare and be like "w-wait")

all that aside, however it does end up happening, I do see Lilia being very blasé and all "oh! cool!" about it. y'know, taking it very much in stride! and Idia...very much not.

(can't tell if tumblr is going to chew this into illegibility or not, this will be a fun surprise ᕕ( ᐛ )ᕗ)

as for Lilia sadly missing out on Halloweentown shenanigans...he does get one little mention as part of an offhand reference to the light music club, but so far no one has brought up how this basically is just Lost In the Book of Liliatown (Sebek's been too busy yelling about not getting to be in the same group as Malleus). 😔 honestly though, it's probably for the best that he got left out, because he would just settle right in and refuse to ever leave. canon would shatter. we would miss out on all the delightful angst of episode 7 because Lilia is too busy eating poisonous shrubbery inbetween practicing his very best screams, and no one can pull him away from it.

(I can hope for a sequel next year though...)

I will never, in a trillion trillion years, relate to Brennan Lee Mulligan more than when he has to be actively restrained from eating more delicious hamburger helper while his body actively attempts to warn him of the impending Situation that will arise should he continue eating.

I need this inside of me, a statement I usually reserve for dick, but have elected to bestow upon this delicious-looking meal.

alicent who made the first move, making her way to rhaenyra— to reach out (“queen alicent has not forgotten the love you once had for each other”) and we see rhaenyra's move is to take different path or avoid her in a way this is her refusal to see alicent as what others around her been telling

(“i do not believe alicent capable of cold murder”) its like rhaenyra is saying after all these years i still know you like the back of my hand the same hand that cleansed the blood off your fingers so she goes after her "true enemies" but then alicent follows her, stand before her. you can say this is her protecting the king, protecting her child but i see it more of alicent offering herself to rhaenyra, to repent

(“whether you come as a lover / i'll return on dragonback / or an executioner. i am ready to receive you”). because alicent sees herself guilty, responsible and equally as others who usurped the throne from rhaenyra at the same time it weight more because alicent betrayed her (“you will make a fine queen”)

so take me, punish me— it may not be the same blood you seek but mine flows in the very same vein of the kinslayer. swirling with grief, anger and the looming death and war above their heads yet still rhaenyra do the same move: avoid her and alicent does the same but she comes back to the same place to meet her, waiting for the judgment but walking away because alicent might have thought or realize rhaenyra would not give it.

(“but remember one thing rhaenyra if you perish in this war it would be because of the love you hold for her / alicent holds love for our enemy that makes her a fool”) and rhaenyra does not realize that its a punishment itself to live, to see how her betrayal and the usurpers sin plunge them to war— she follows her because they are so intertwined by many things: childhood friends, marriage, family, crown and their love for each other that no matter what they do, what actions they take and be it by the very own hands or others—

the consequences will be devastating and they will be felt by alicent and rhaenyra because they are the very center of all of this (“it doesn't matter how much i still love you alicent i think i'm going to be angry at you forever / we gave each other this agony no one else knows what it means to carry it”)
