#couches as symbolism

destiel lamp to buddie couch pipeline but this time the main defender of the furniture metaphor is one half of the ship himself

the shaving of the moustache, the dance sequence, him lying on the couch, buck showing up at his door (without knowing what happened yet)... what an insane ending!!!

[buddiex911]

the ending of 8x06 was insane I truly feel like I just watched a fanfic come to life. eddie’s dance party? perfection. buck coming over post bt breakup with a case of beer? perfection? eddie answering the door for him in his undies? perfection. buck just walking straight inside because it’s eddie’s house and he’s not really a guest? perfection. eddie clambering over the couch to sit with him? perfection.

You ever think about the progression of vashwood's relationship through hands and wolfwood's "I'm no longer fit to hold you guys" and "hold them in your arms and don't let go!" and how wolfwood forces vash's hand to point a gun at his head and how vash has one hand that is a nuclear bomb and the other hand was lost to a brother and replaced with another weapon and how wolfwood often carves detailed little birds with his hands and the way they reach for each other and just barely miss throughout volume 10 and how vash's hand digs into wolfwood's back when they finally do catch other because he's just realized what's going to happen and how they meet with a handshake and part with a toast and how a gun is something you have to use with your hands and how vash and wolfwood are both living weapons and how a bird does not have hands but wings and how this story ends with vash reaching out a hand and sprouting wings. I do. I think about it a lot 🥲

The mess on the couch Margaret bought - that can’t be cleaned - the mess created by bringing a child into the world - while death is looming nearby.

How the whole scene is a metaphor for Bucks life - how his entrance into the world was messy and death was looming - how his birth was an attempt to keep death at bay but it came anyway and has held the hand of the Buckleys ever since. How the Buckleys tried to clean up the mess but their secret created an uncomfortable life for Buck - one that couldn’t be kept hidden and once revealed exposed the mess. How the couch is unsalvageable in much the same way Bucks relationship with his parents is - the mess will always be there in the centre of things.

How the couch is orange and how orange is a colour of superficiality arrogance and pride.

How Kameron batted Natalia away initially but ended up holding her hand - holding the hand of death while bringing life into the world - the same way Margaret was when Buck was born.

How Buck holding that baby and needing a few seconds but ultimately being able to hand it over and let go is a representation of him breaking the cycle even if he is still connecting himself to death he has broken one link in the chain - the link to his birth.

Drew @cauldronfamiliar's Lacrima and Alice yesterday They managed to talk me into actually posting them

[cringefaildiaz]

the thing thats making me a little cuckoo bananas is that eddies couch is kinda a fandom thing. like yes we know buck sleeps there sometimes but we blew it into the significant symbolic object it is to buddie fans now. which is totally fine and great in its own right but then the show....the show made it a thing. an actual canon thing. the show said "the couch is a metaphor" and we said "so how does eddies couch play in" and they???? had an answer for us??????

Do you think bucks loft is going to burn down in episode 5

I think the loft serves a meta purpose on Buck's journey to find home and they won't get rid of it until Buck is done figuring his place in the world out. I don't see that happening by 805. So no. I don't think they'll burn down the loft.

something something grace's first sung words being lost at sea something something calliope's first sung words being with a fire furious i have burned my tongue.

the ocean and the fire symbolism guys. the ocean as purposelessness. the fire as purpose. grace adrift at sea, calliope lighting a match that consumed her. do you hear me.

My Mom Is Cool

My mom is unfamiliar with the term "robofucker" and has probably not heard me say "robot porn" because i think i usually say Allen or just Transformer or something

Anyhow she just referred to one of my stories i was showing her the stats on (my mom likes following my author blog progress and she also sometimes reads the reviews with me we're silly yes) as Techno Smut and I

how was I today years old hearing that for the first time

I love it

I'm stealing it

T e c h n o s m u t

conversations I never thought I'd have with my mom, I adore her.

no but Buck just walking right into Eddie's house to sit on the couch and instantly fall asleep there that's just hgnfhhfjfhd making me want to eat glass, that's his couch he's not really a guest

crying sobbing throwing up thinking about the Kid Pirates at Gran Tesoro's resort. Idc about the actual plot of Film Gold please just consider them all done up in hot ass outfits, Kid's got on the most godawful pair of sunglasses ever conceived of (and he's NAILING it), nobody has on a tie. Just something about that rowdy bunch on a big floating resort sets my brain on fire.

grief is like a really ugly couch

I think grief is like a really ugly couch. It never goes away. You can decorate around it; you can slap a doily on top of it; you can push it to the corner of the room—but eventually, you learn to live with it. ― Jodi Picoult, Leaving Time

I love how Christopher's shirt is turquoise which is a mix of green and blue. Just to add to this Green/Blue theme, on rewatching the episode Eddie has a Green phone case and Buck has a Blue one.
