So I understand there’s a cut line in Rogue Nation about Ethan gambling with Benji’s life and losing - and there are other references in that film to it all being a gamble.

In fact Ethan’s style is to gamble and hope he wins

And ‘Final Reckoning’ is often a phrase used to refer to settlement at the end of the night of gambling.

And Marlowe’s (playwright but also spy) death - supposedly as part of a fight over a bill but maybe a hit - is referred to as ‘a great reckoning in a little room’

And I think Final Reckoning is a reference to the way Ethan has been gambling all this time and the bill has come due. And I think it’s the culmination of a story that began in that little room when Benji refused to leave Ethan - even though Ethan has gambled with his life and almost lost.

And I think because the forehead touch has been such a central part of the marketing, the Ethan/Benji story will be central. We might even get some flashbacks - Vienna, London, Kashmir.

I think the Final Reckoning is the bill coming due for the gamble Ethan has made on keeping Benji so close - the end of the story that began in the little room in Vienna.

Do you see?

*wanders away incoherently muttering about it all makes sense in my head…*

As someone who shares the exact same birthday as justice for all, my all time favourite bit for the last few years has been to publicly not acknowledge today is my own birthday, but to post a happy birthday to jfa instead. To my friends who all have never played ace attorney.

On that note:

Happy 22nd Birthday to Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney - Justice for All!

Imagine being so down bad for someone that you confess your love to them daily, so heartbroken that they never responded that you die crying tears of blood, get reborn as a human and wander the world in search of different types of love to gift to them, get reborn again as the symbol of romance with your symbol forever connected to theirs within recorded history, and then when you die you gift them the last remnants of your divinity in order to safeguard their coreflame.

actually the idea that Dick, the eldest, the only one who ever wore the cowl long term, the only one who raised a Robin on his own, is also the only one who can successfully, perfectly replicate that barked ROBIN! in Bruce's voice? the only one who can pull that exact tone from the depths of his soul, to the point where his voice is identical, so identical that old Robins like Jason are obeying before their minds even realize their bodies are moving? that Dick is the only one, has always been the only one, who can channel Bruce's voice? can channel Batman himself? I am going feral

going to chb must be crazy like imagine sharing a camp with

-one of the strongest demigods ever who's saved the world like at least 3 times, fought multiple gods & titans and WON (and is a tartarus survivor)

-the literal main architect of OLYMPUS who's also saved the world multiple times (also tartarus survivor)

-THE lord of the wild who's also close friends with the first two (and has helped save the world multiple times)

-an emo kid from the 1930s who again helped save the world and is also a tartarus survivor (TWICE)

-a son of apollo who survived tartarus with nothing but cargo shorts and sheer will (pun intended)

-the main designer and builder for the argo II, also the first hephaestus kid to have fire powers since hundreds of years ago (did i mention killed gaea? no? yeah he did that too)

-a girl who somehow charmspeak-ed gaea into falling back asleep (also side note daughter of super famous actor because why not)

-pretty much everybody is a two-time war veteran

-THE GOD APOLLO who just sometimes comes down to visit in the form of a teenage boy

-did i mention dionysus, god of wine madness and theatre

-also chiron, trainer of pretty much every greek hero ever

So we all know by now that Dazai is comfortable enough around Chuuya to show nervousness/worry.

Enough times for Chuuya to pick up on that pattern. The pattern, may I remind you, that doesn't have evident correlation to either nervousness or worry to most people. One that can even be interpreted as misplaced given the situation.

Which means that Dazai has done this in front of Chuuya so often, that Chuuya at first was hella confused, before he finally made a connection between when and why it happens. And still remembered that connection after four years of separation. Which gets us to my point:

What if this isn't the only emotion Dazai displays weirdly?

What if he has multiple unconventional patterns he displays for sadness, frustration, content, or disgust? The times he really feels them, and they become too strong for him to just deal with normally? What if these are the only times he's actually being genuine with his emotions?

And Chuuya is the only one who is familiar with them all?

Dazai would be jumping rope and Chuuya would be like, "quit sulking, let's get icecream"

Dazai hanging upside down on the couch and Chuuya going, "It's okay, mackerel. You can cry."

Dazai actually crying, full on heart-wrenching sobs, and Chuuya unironically going, "What, good news?"

It's just... comforting, for one person in Dazai's life to read him like a book. Everyone else would look at him like he's crazy, displaying wrong emotions/behaviors at the wrong time, but Chuuya knows that it's just how he processes feeling properly, and thus he's the only one Dazai can count on to put things into context and understand, which makes him display them even more openly.

Because Chuuya never shamed him for his quirks, as much as Dazai never did his.

olympics coming up…… athlete aus on the mind….. satoru as a swimmer….. unreasonably large wingspan…. huge hands..... thinks “official” competitions and tournaments are boring because he can’t use the goofy purple googly eyes goggles he likes to practice in…… practices at ungodly hours solely because he likes when the pool is empty because that means you’ll dip your feet in at the edge and be there to greet him with a kiss when he’s finished his laps….. they bring up the stats board and it’s just his name ten times before the next fastest person and he could still lap them, and even tho he’ll always put so much pressure on himself to be the best, it’s worth it to have you hold his face and tell him you’re proud of him... he’s gotten so much merch from events and sponsorships and he used to think they just created clutter but that all changes when you start to wear his clothes (esp the ones with his name on it… he’s not proud to admit that does Something to him)…. always looks up to the stands when he finishes a race and if he knows you’re not there, he looks right at the camera, draws an infinity sign with his fingers, and blows a kiss (which, some commentators routinely call “unsportsmanlike conduct” but he doesn’t care, and always, publicly says he’ll pay the fees if it means blowing a kiss to his girl at home)

No words just Dan quietly singing the Winnie the Pooh theme song while Phil opens more fan mail.

Also this is lethal
