BBC Sherlock taking John and Sherlock’s relationship for granted creates a rift in the narrative

I have already pointed out in previous post how disappointed I was that John and Sherlock relationship never developed, in a way it should and would have been justified by the narrative

In this point I want to look at how their relationship started and how this was already created the first problems. This review contains multiple spoilers for other Sherlock Holmes shows.

When John and Sherock meet for the fisrt time in ASIP they immediatley start working together.

No hesitation. They both went full in, from minute one onwards. This is a nice way of showing how well John and Sherlock work together, and that they think alike. But on the other hand it feels like Mofftiss took the relationship for granted and said: "These are John and Sherlock. Of course they work perfectly which each other. We do not have to talk about that."

But imo that was TOO fast. There is no conflict. They never have time to discuss where they stand in this relationship. And because Mofftiss pretend, that they work perfectly together, from minute one onwards - even though they just met - it is hard to further develop their relationship from here on. Because it is already perfect. You would need something really big to happen for them to redefine their roles in this relationship. We kind of had that in season 4, but we knew how messy that went. And there was never a TALK after that. Thats also a main problem in this show. John and Sherlock never really talk. It is John who often sits down and talks and Sherlock is not listening. Of course the relationship is developing, but the show never uses its whole potential.

So what would have been a better way of handling their first meeting? A first meeting that allows them to naturelly grow into the relationship... and further develop their relationship?

Elementary

Yeah I am gonna drag Elementary into this again. BBC Sherlock and Elementray share a really similar set up. They meet each other for the first time, and immeditaly move in and start solving cases together. But Elemenetary gives John and Sherlock time to grow into the relastionship.

This moment defines the Joanlock relationship imo. It shows that Joan is ready to confront Sherlock and call out his bullshit, that Sherlock listens and is effected by what Joan thinks and says, that Sherlock still has a lot of work to do. AND - most importantly - that a Johnlock relationship takes effort and is nothing that you can take for granted.

And this show was on air for 7 seasons, with 22 episodes each. Nevertheless the relationship was developing the whole time. In future seasons they are recalling their first meeting, honoring how much they have grown.

Resulting in:

This is something we never got in BBC Sherlock. We never saw them honoring the growth they made, recalling their first meeting, and having a satisifying conculsion, aka: "I love you" (in what way doesn't matter btw. The Joanlock moment wasn't romantic either).

Of course you could agrue now: "But Elementary did had the time for stuff like that, BBC Sherlock only had 4 seasons, with 3 episodes each."

So let us look at The Irregulars next:

This show starts as a usual crime detective show... with a supernatural twist. But slowly you learn that the core point of the show is the relationship between Sherlock Holmes and John Watson.

The show is set years after Holmes and Watsons first meeting. Actually when we first meet John his relationship with Sherlock is over already, broken and ruined. Later we - the viewer - get multiple flashback scene, showing us how they first met, how their relationship developed, and why they are not talking with each other anymore, resulting in this glorious moment:

But the show doesn't stop there, it even goes further and shows us how John and Sherlock slowly get closer to each other again. Sitting in the dark, discussing their relationship, the mistakes they made and most important: apologizing.

Still angry at Netflix for cancelling the show.

Of Course we also have other approaches. RDJ Sherlock.

Like BBC Sherlock it leans much more into Crime aspect of the story. But the story still centers around Holmes and Watsons relationship. When we first meet them they have been together long, probably for years. They are already settled in their relationship. They both know their roles in this relationship and they both feel comfortable with it. They behave like an old married couple. And when they fight, it is never serious. The first real problems erupt when Watson decides to marry. And thats the whole core problem of the first movie: Watson moving out of 221B to marry a woman and how Holmes deals with that. He develops from more or less boycotting the marriage to accepting it and gifting Mary and Watson a ring.

The second movie is him trying to accept that his love of his life best friend is married now and trying to solve cases on his own, without Watson. Eventually sacrificing his own life to safe Watson AND Mary. So even though the movies are crime movies, the Johnlock relationship is still the heart of the story.

If the movies wouldn't focus on the Johnlock relationship, the story would be a different one.

Many Johnlock moments in the movies are non-verbal, so excuse the extensive use of gifs here. But there is so much happening on a non-verbal level!

For example the wedding, which is a huge Johnlock moment. John being super nervous before his wedding and you see that Holmes is not happy either, but he still nods, letting Watson know that it is okay and that Watson is making the right decision.

But nevertheless he has to look away when Mary and Watson kiss. The message is clear here. He isn't happy, he is sad because he is loosing the most important person in his life.

Then we have moments like this, (see below) where - during a moment of danger - they cling to each other, making sure the other one is safe. Not being afraid of physical contact. This is something I was also missing in BBC sherlock btw. Physical they always made sure to stay away from each other. When they hugged it was like... a big thing. Which - set in modern times - felt a little bit off. Because in contrast to Miss Sherlock (see below) Holmes was never shown to be actively against physical contact. I wish the production team would have allowed more friendly touches. I mean... ACD Johnlock walks around arm-in-arm and John gets nervous everytime Holmes comes close, because "poeple might talk." Nah...

I think A game of shadows, peaked when Watson and Holmes danced. Because it shows that they have a deep connection. They came from a place where they acted like an old married couple, then being all nervous because of the Watson/Marry wedding, having to re-identify their relationship towards each other, to this finale dance, where - symbolically- they are a couple again. Everything came full circle. It is like: No matter what happens around Watson and Holmes, they will always find their way back to each other. They will always be the center of the story. It will always be them against the rest of the world, no matter what. No excuses.

But acually, the adaptation most close to BBC Sherlock is Miss Sherlock. I mean... it was basically a female japanese copy of BBC Sherlock.

But still... it improved a lot of things. When Sherlock and Wato (Watson) first meet they really can not stand each other. This Sherlock is also rude, but it is really clear that she is on the autism spectrum. She gets overhelmed by too much light and by loud noises. She is really against phyisal contact.

And the most beautiful thing about this adaptation: It knows that in the end Watson will always be Sherlocks weakness. It will not say: "Don't try to drown in the well. Good luck. I am off hugging my sister." (season 4 shade). In Miss Sherlock the finale conflict is: Watson being manipulated to work against Sherlock. Showing, that in the end, it all boils down to their relationship again. And this adaptation wrote a scene that is just.. chef kiss!

When Wato is around, Sherlock is all grumpy towards her. But during the finale Wato is kidnapped. And the show gives us a short look into one of Sherlocks most private moments. The moment she realizes that Wato is kidnapped. A moment where Sherlock is completly alone. And we see a honest and extremly vunerable moment. This one:

Sherlock screaming Watos name in agony. Knowing that she NEEDS Wato. And then she goes and risks everything to save Wato. EVERYTHING!

Her reputation and her life. She is even ready to be killed by Wato.

TL.DR:

So what am I trying to say? That BBC Johnlock has no relationship development? That there isn't any trust between them? Nope, course not.

We see John and Sherlock growing into the relationship, we see Sherlock getting softer because of John, we see John healing because of Sherlock and on the other hand we see Sherlock opening up, telling Watson whats really on his mind. Trying to be a better human, being more social. But imo that should have been the plot of idk... the first season, maybe the second one. Because thats just the beginning. A Johnlock relationship is so mch deeper, holds so much more story potential. Yeah, John and Sherlock belong to ecah other and are good for each other. We know that! Is Sherlock ready to confess his (plantonic) love for Watson by the end of the show? Is Watson so jealous of Sherlocks love interest that he opens a rift in the universe? Is Sherlock having a break down, screaming out Watsons name in agony? I don't want to see John being replaced by a balloon in season 4 (!) and it is played for a joke. Their relationship should be so so so much deeper at that point. For me BBC Sherlock felt like, they stop mid-relationship-development. It feels like Mofftiss said: "John and Sherlock work well with each other and are best friend. What else is there to say?" SO! MUCH! MORE!

They had all this potential, and went nowhere with it. And i don't necessarily mean romantically btw. Eveen Hilson drove into the sunset together eventually...

i was listing to “so high school” today and couldn’t stop thinking about this one line…

“You knew what you wanted and boy, you got her”

the entire song is written in the fisrt person perspective (“i know aristotle”, “i’m sinking” etc), so why would she suddenly change it to the third person? why didn’t she sing “you got me”

i think the “she” is not referring to actual her (real Taylor) but her media image - how media see her as the perfect straight american sweetheart. as this song is obliviously about bearding and a satire on the pr relationship she and travis are it makes perfect sense because there’s nothing between travis and real Taylor. he doesn’t have real Taylor (narrator), he only has some “her” which media shows.

furthermore, “he knew what he wanted”: why was he sure he was going to get it? it doesn’t matter, he (=his pr team) just wanted the media Taylor, the image which can be altered to play whatever role (in this case the american sweetheart) needed.

Just a meta vent for all the bad takes I've seen about the Master, and especially Saxon Master (and still trying to get my ass to work on my thesis, but! it looks like I'm getting another article published so yey, ranting about the raccoon works!!!)

So yeah, this is me, ranting about why I think the reintroduction of the Master into NuWho was absolutely brilliant in s3 and what hot takes I've seen about the way it's been done on da Internet. I'm putting this under a cut, because, weeell, comparing Masters and Doctors, and even companions(!) turns into a kind of beauty paegant that has little to do with how well the author's thought got translated into the final product, AND I GET IT! People have favourites! That's fine! Yes, there's a level at which I just think Tennant and Simm look cute together*! But for full disclosure, they weren't my fisrt thoschei - I watched ALL the stuff I could from classic Who online and decided they're married when Threegado had to actively stop each other from shaking hands in The Sea Devils. Which is why it hurts me all the more when mah twinks get framed as they betrayal of the dynamic.

*But let's be honest, the aesthetical aspect is very much part of the course. Jon Pertwee and Roger Delgado might not exactly look the same, but the outfits do ooze that same 70s two ends of the queer spectrum feel, and this carried over to Anthony Ainley's harem and Paul McGann and Eric Roberts. Picking two white twinks with different shades of brown hair and eyes and rectangular vs. round faces was a conscious choice, as was picking a witchy looking woman in a victorian outfit to match a wizardy looking man in old time-y outfit, both with striking blue yes, as was juxtaposing a light blonde white woman in light outfit with a brown dark haired man in a dark outfit (why. Chibs WHY not go with Whittaker's beautiful natural hair colour unless to underline just how much the reyesque champion of light your Doctor is and cause confusion as to how regeneration works). But anyway.

I think the primary issue I take with complaints about Simm's Master is the idea that he was somehow a hard break from classic who Masters. And yes, RTD definitely went a much more unhinged manic energy way than the more controlled Original and Tremas regenerations, he admits it himself (all of this is very much influenced by me watching DW confidential). And yes, that's absolutely the case! But that's the natural result of making the Doctor, both the Eccleston and Tennant faces, much more unhinged and manic than in the classic era. Whether you frame it watsonianly as the result of the Time War, or doylistly as the result of the way television changed as a medium with the development of home cinema systems and general social shift after the end of cold war (that's me, btw, hello, McLuhan's ghost keeps possessing me), it's up to you, but the point is, if you want to maintain the two sides of the same coin energy, you have to match your earlier choices. So, no, in my opinion this wasn't a hard break from classicWho Masters, but rather cutting through all the aesthetic overgrowth to the essense of the character. Digging down to the core of the character, so to speak. Yes, Saxon Master acts in a misogyinistc manner, which wasn't there before. But that's the natural result of involving the Doctor in explicitly romantic relationships! The flip side of explicit heterosexual attraction is the othering of the "opposite" for lack of the better word sex and when your focus is in domination YOU ARE GOING TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF WHATEVER POWER IMBALANCES THE SOCIETY PROVIDES YOU WITH!! And that extends to your aesthetics going more in the direction of a noir unhinged gangster villain than a queer coded Bond villain (srsly those of you who don't get where Simm!Master's quirks come from NEED to watch White Heat with James Cagney). Like, srsly, 90% of complaints about the way the Master has changed from classic Who to Saxon is the way politics have changed from cold war "my empire is better than yours but end of the day we're going to be courteous so we don't blow each other up" to post-politics "vote for me, I'm sexy and can make you sexy too" framework of the latest fin de siecle.

But this kind of cuts down to what it the essence and what is incidental. Politeness of classic Who can be traced back to noblesse oblige that was in place in 70s and 80s. But end of of the day, it was just an epiphenomenon of the main axis of power: class. In the merry world of identity politics, it's going to be gender and race. It's all about power relations, though.

Which sort of, very abstractly, relates to the handling of mental illness in NuWho Masters. Now, the yell of "you're insane!" as a general "dude, you're not making any sense :/" has been there in classic Who alright, but this has definitely become more pronounced in NuWho, starting from Saxon possibly because the idea politics involve some element of savoir vivrve has become dismissed as political in its own right rather than giving basic directions in unknown situations but hushhhh. I think the general framing of the Master as "just" needing to "hear the music" (yeah, I hate this line, is it a metaphor Steven? if so, of what?) or generally reconciling with the Doctor, because that's "what the Master really wants is to be loved" is very much rooted in the sort of... Frommian psychoanalysis of society. I would actually argue Fromm is very much present in spirit throughout all of the more refelctive aspects of Doctor Who, the Doctor themself is very much a Frommian hero, classic and new alike, which is great! Seriously, so many of Fromm's reflections cut so deep to the core of many social issues, and I think Escape from freedom has become particularly up-to-date recently, unfortunately. And I think this relates to the general trend in moral philosphy to go from ethical judgement to psyhcological understanding, which is absolutely great as far as realy life is concerned! Yes, if you actually want to prevent violent crimes instead of just reestabslishing social sense of justice through punishment, understanding where the idea to hurt somebody comes from is the way to go! Except... I don't think it's the best way to go when it comes to fiction. Like, fiction is all about putting people in situations. The situation kind of comes before the personality, if you get my drift. There can be aesthetical choices depending on whether you've made your character more decisive or indecisive, but end of the day, you chose to put the character in a situation where they find out their father has been murdered. This, I think, is the bedrock distinction between character relatability and resonance. Can we all relate to Hamlet? Not neccessarily, perhaps you relate to Laertes more. But can we all put ourselves in the situation where we find out something horrible and are called to act upon it? Yes.

Have I drifted off? Maybe.

But my point is, I would say the way in which RTD handled Simm!Master's "insanity" has less to do with any psychological diagnosis that the vague "insanity" of Ophelia, King Lear or Goethe's Gretchen. It's not something that can be "healed", it's the fundamental shine on you crazy diamond mephistophelian elan vital that in real world psychological therapy is redirected in ways that are constructive both for the individual and their surroundings. But in fiction? It's not to be healed. It's the essential driving force, The jester, who’s most lightly weighted. Man’s energies all too soon seek the level, He quickly desires unbroken slumber, So I gave him you to join the number, To move, and work, and play the devil.

Go home, Roxanne, you're drunk, go cry to another fic of the psyche mourning eros.

Which fisrt word do u think the kids from your dad! stories would say? I imagine the twins saying something super weird as the first word lol

oh my goshhh, this is such a cute question! argh, i love getting questions related to the dad au works so much, they are just so adorable and i love them all… now i am thinking of making a little mini post about what their names are and their appearances in my head too but i don’t know if you guys would want that… if you do, let me know! i might just make it anyways hehe

dad! øystein was absolutely trying to make both of your twin girls say “ coca-cola ” for their first words as a joke… then one of them, your girl who is already a major daddys girl, actually does came out and said it for her first word… well, she tried her absolute best to say it though it came out more like “ co-ah coo-luh ” but that was more than close enough for øystein and he could not stop laughing for days about how absolutely perfect it was! all whilst you were just beyond shocked that he actually managed to make one of your twins say a damn sugary drink brand that they could not even drink yet for their first word instead of “ mama ” or “ dada ” i mean seriously?! you carried her and her sister for so long in your stomach, put up with so much pain and mood swings for her and she says that as her first word?! he makes her say that for her first word?! but you certainly could not stay baffled and upset for long at all before joining him in his laughter and realising just how humorous the whole situation is… he tells everyone about it wether they ask about her first word or not, it becomes a staple story for him to tell at every event and it is never forgotten, even when she reaches her much older years and he is beyond proud when she turns out to love coca-cola as much as he does, just as he knew she would! she would have to love coca-cola with it being her literal first word and all… but luckily for you, your other twin girl who is a major mamas girl ends up just saying “ mama ” for her first word! øystein pretends to be just so disappointed in her, tutting whilst you get excited and pepper her rosy red cheeks with soft kisses, holding your other girl in his arms whilst shaking his head towards her and telling her she should have stuck to the “ coca-cola pact ” whatever that is… but he is not actually disappointed, obviously not! he is quick to take her from you arms when your shower of love and praise towards her is over, quick to hold both her and her sister against his chest whilst planing a kiss to her head and telling her how good that was as her small hands grasp at his long dyed black hair…

dad! bård has an extremely quiet baby with you… she barely ever even cried all that much when she was a newborn and even when she did cry, she was really quick to quiet down within just seconds of being lifted into your or her fathers arms… so yeah, your daughter with bård would have a case of a baby not saying their first word for a whileee… like, a pretty long while! she just does not say a word! she barely even makes a peep… she is quiet as a church mouse, only letting out quiet squeaks and hums but never even attempting to say an actual word no matter how much you and bård tried to goad her on, no matter how much you and bård tried to tempt her and guide her to say something easy… bård was definitely pretty nervous and afraid that there was something wrong with her after she still was not saying her first word months after she should have! he was scared that maybe she was sick or somehow in pain and she wanted to speak but could not manage it… he was just so beyond worried! you and her doctor had to reassure him many times that she was perfectly fine! telling him that some babies just take longer than others and she certainly is not in any pain! when the first word finally came out of her mouth, it wasn’t just one word, oh no… it was beyond random and out of the blue, completely unprompted as bård held her on his hip whilst showing her his drums and talking to her about how he will teach her to play when she is older and then, then just as he turns around and goes to leave his small practice room… in a quiet and upset babble out of her mouth comes “ papa, i want! ” all whilst she made grabby hands towards his drums! to say he fell into a state of silent shock would be an understatement! he went deadly quiet for at least a minute, wide eyes staring down at her as she repeated the phrase for a second time, more demanding and still obviously upset at the thought of leaving the drums behind, tiny fingers pointing at his drums once more before he managed to break out of his shock, a proud smile came across his face as he lifted her higher up on his hip before excitedly calling out to you, leaning his face down to pepper kisses on her chubby cheeks and laughing to himself in between mumbling praises to her, telling her how proud of her he is and if she wanted to see his drums, she should have asked sooner, he would never deny her access to anything of his! all of the lingering worry he had about something being wrong, fear that maybe he was doing something wrong and he was to blame for her lack of words was completely washed away with her sudden small sentence, she became a shy little babble box around the two of you after that day…

dad! pelle has a daughter who absolutely loves nature and the woodland! i mean, thanks to the two of you anyways… you guys would take her on little walks through the nearby forest as soon as she was old enough to leave the house safely and was not extremely vulnerable to germs! you bundle her up in a fluffy little brown bear onesie with mittens and a thick jacket! pelle holds her on his hip or against his chest, cradling her small body with an obvious protectiveness as he is overly careful with his steps on the small dirt path, walking slowly next to you as the two of you talked quietly about your daughter, his hand softly stroking her back and his eyes watching hers as they dart around the forest, her big doe eyes curious about her surroundings as she constantly looks from side to side… it is only when you and pelle hear her let out and excited squeal and notice her begin to get a little rowdy in his arms that you both stop walking, his brows furrowing as he sees her small hand outstretched towards something, his eyes following the direction of her pointing before they land on a deer in the distance, quiet and minding its own business as it feeds on some berries and leaves, unaware or unbothered by your presence as the two of you smile at your daughters excitement and obvious admiration of the animal… it is only when he quietly mumbles down to her about what the animal is, telling her the full name and what they like to eat, that she says her first word which is “ deer ” though it kind of sounds more like “ duuh ” and he quickly looks up at you in shock after she says it, meeting your similarly wide eyes as a big smile crawls across his face, an open mouthed genuine proud smile as he bounces her slightly and presses a kiss to her head, quietly telling her that yeah, it is a deer… repeating the name just a little slower for her to follow his pronunciation as she attempts to mirror his word once more, her smile only getting bigger as his does when he kisses her head once more and praises her, moving her a little to let you come over and pepper some of your own kisses to her chubby cheeks and offer some praise of your own as he looks down at the two of you, wondering how he got so lucky… why he was the receiver of such beauty and love… this first word of hers absolutely leads to more in life for him and her! pelle loves crafting her things centred around deer! wether it be an art piece, a small sculpture carved from deer antler or even making her a little custom deer plushie… it really opens the window to his creative soul and he adores seeing his little girl smile when he gifts her something new! when it comes to his son, i think his first word would be a simple “ dada ” after much encouragement from you whilst pelle watched and shook his head with a small smile! when he actually does come out and say it, his smile drops a tiny bit before immediately growing back as he feels a strong warmth envelop his heart, a slight tightening in his throat as the world around him becomes muffled, your coos and quiet laughter becoming cushioned in his ears as he realises just how special he is to his son and just how special his son is to him… when he realises his son loves him just as much as he does, when he realises his son only sees him as his father and not some scary person… i think this is what would make pelle open his hear a whole lot to your son, it is his breaking point as he realises both of his children see him as is their father, it’s all they will ever see him as… and he could not be any more grateful for that…

dad! vegard has a baby girl who just absolutely adoresss her father! she is a total daddys girl and it is probably because he was the one always fulfilling her cravings for cookies when she was still in your womb… but the thing with him is he is just so bashful and loving towards you! so whilst he loves the fact that she is a daddy’s girl and is certainly not ignorant to the fact, he actually tries to get her to say “ mama ” for her first word! he thinks you deserve it more than him, thinks she should recognise you as her mama for her first word instead of him as her papa! but you think the opposite… you adore seeing how much she loves him and obviously slightly prefers him to you, so it just turns into a lighthearted battle between the two of you constantly trying to make her say the opposite thing! but alas, she does say “ papa ” for her first word and you let out the loudest cheer when she does! immediately proclaiming yourself the winner of this contest all whilst cooing and praising her, vegard watching with a smile, shaking his head before taking her into his arms and pressing a soft kiss to her frizzy black hair, asking her softly about the deal they had, about how she promised she would say “ mama ” first! obviously this is all lost to her baby brain as she just babbles and continually repeats “ papa ” up at him in exchange for more kisses and coos…

arghhh i just know they would all be so beyond proud of their babies first word! the praise and pride in their baby would be insane for weeks following the first word coming out of their mouth! thank you very much for the fluffy little ask, anon <3

The chad canon Aiden who would push you and your friends off a cliff without a second thought vs the virgin swap au Aiden who’s working to better himself after ep 3 and goes to stupid therapy smh🙄 /j

It’s a scene that takes place right after the interrogation when the player can choose the culprit and in this case Jesse chose not to accuse anyone yet. 

I’ve had this scene in my head for a year now and quickly sketched out the fisrt few pages quite a while ago but never got the time to line them. Only these pannels already had some lineart on them so I wanted to quickly finish them and post it. Initially I was waiting until I get the full comic done so I could post everything at once but at this rate I’m not sure I’ll ever finish the whole comic, so I at least wanted to put out these finished pannels so they aren’t pointlessly collecting dust in my folder

Hazel Eyes: Chapter 1: Midnight Sky

I don't know what got into me that day? I was sitting in the corner couch of the club, drinking my pg13 virgin mojito and then I saw him. He's my jiju-to-be's best friend. Well not exactly my jiju but the husband-to-be of my best friend (who is my sister in soul.). And then everything just came to a halt. I gasped. Stared at his hazel eyes, those honey coloured pots, fluid like a beautiful freshwater lake. Time pasued for the both of us. He stopped his little dance and looked back at me. I could feel the blood rushing to my face turning it red. I tired to look away but then he came and sat beside me.

I wasn't really supoosed to be here. But since my bestie's husband is a good friend of mine, he invited me to this bachelor's party of his. I really just wanted to be with my besties and decide what the whole vibe and the design of the mehndi for the wedding should be. But he insisted a bit too much so I had to go. That's just me. I can't say 'no' sometimes. I really should have.

So, he sat beside me. I was red with every emotion I can and cannot think of. He started to talk to me. Said, "Hey! You're Vaidehi's friend? Right?" I looked at him awkwardly, like I looked at my fisrt ever crush in ,11th grade and replied, "Yeah... And you're Arsh's friend. Nice to meet you." My hands shook. He asked, "Your name is Aadvaith?" I replied meekishly, "yeah, it's actually pronounced 'Advait.'" He apoligises and says, "I'm Tej. Arsh's..." - "Arsh's best friend. I know." I interjected . Might have been a bit rude but I wasn't in my head at the time. All the blood in my body was busy turning me red, rather than helping my brain think.

I stood up, awkward as ever, and signed, "I think I should leave here. I'm kinda getting bored." Standing up I sought to find Arsh and tell him I'm gonna leave. And... Arsh was black out drunk on the other side of the club. I rolled my eyes and walked towards the back door that led to the parking lot as I slipped into my jacket. The weather was brutally cold. As I was about to press 'unlock' on the key fob, someone grabbed my left hand. I was shocked. A billion worst case scenarios going in my head. And then I turned back. It was Tej. I half-yelled, "The fuck Tej, you almost gave me a heart attack!" He expressed regret and said, "I'm sorry, I spooked you. Just wanted to ask whether you could drop me at my hotel. You know, I'm a bit tipsy and I also wanna leave early. See, you don't have to but..." - "Get in." I rumbled. He looked at me with surprise and said , "Oh! Okay! Great!" And took off for the passanger door. I unlocked the car and both of us got in. I pressed the 'start engine' button and the engine roared to life as it's head and tail lights illuminated the surroundings.

He adjusted in the passanger seat as I backed the car out from the drak parking lot. The place was dark. The night was of a new moon. All that I could see were the millions of stars in the night sky. Then he remarked, "woah! Quite a view you've got in your town. I'm in love since the day I got here, and today it looks even prettier" I chuckled, "This is the reason why I insisted Vaidehi to plan the major events in our howtown. A place to remice our childhood. A place fo escape from all the pressures and sorrows in our adult lives..." He added, "This truly is a serene place." He then added, "So, tell me about yourself. The drive is quite long. We'll get bored" and yes, we were an hour away from his hotel. He said, "I heard you're a fashion designer of sorts?", "-Journalist", I corrected him. I added, "I'm not on the talkative side." He said, "A journalist who doesn't talk? Interesting." I said, "My job is more about writeups so there's not much talking required. And I do talk when needed." "Oh, great!" He replied."What do you do, Tej?", I asked. He said, "I'm a general physician." - "A general physician who drinks? Interesting", I joked. He said, "Giving me my own medicine, are you?" I smiled and said, "lf you say so."

And then he kept on talking. I just sat there, eyes fixated on the road, driving. He said, "This place is so pretty. The sky is mesmerizing." I said, "I know a place to stargaze." I added, "I used to go there a lot when I was youger. Mind if a take the detour?" He affirmed, "Yes! Yes! Let's go there." And then I took an U-turn. Drove for fifteen minutes and then came the sign. It was of an old abandoned saw-mill. I took the turn and drove in around five kilometres on the dirt road. We reached the place past midnight.

It was a huge opeing surrouned by thick forest. The saw-mill had closed nearly five decades earlier when due to restrictions and what not. I had snuck into this place one night when I was learning how to drive at seventeen. It was also the night of a new moon. I remember getting out of the car and laying down on the green grass covered with dew drops. I also remember the week long fever I had incurred from this escapade. And thereafter this place had become my comfort.

I instructed him to recline his seat so that he could see out through the sunroof. I did the same. I said, "Just look up. Just take in the beuty now." Only one word escaped from under his breath. "Wow." The sky was all shades of blue midnight blue as millions of stars glamorously twinkled like gemstones of varrying sizes. And then I felt the touch of his warm hand on mine. He said, "I love this place!" I replied, "yeah, me too." And then he sat up in his seat. Still his hand clutched mine. And then he directed my hand towards his lotus tinted lips as I sat up in my seat. They were as soft as petals of roses. He kissed the back of my hand. It was divine. And then he said, "I need to tell you something..." I replied, "what?" Staring deep into his hypnotic eyes. "I think I really like you... love you... I, I don't know how but I, I, just have this strong attraction towards you and I can't explain this!" He said. I slowly, seductively moved my left index finger towards his lips and ran and silently said, "You don't have you explain this." He quieted down and stared into my soul with his deepset gemstones of eyes.

They were so vivid. So haunting. So bewitching. I got lost in them and felt like myself again in a long long time. Then it happened. I grabbed his head and pulled his sculpturesque face towards me. And then our lips aligned under the midnight sky. He followed suit and clutched my head with his strong hands and time stopped again. We just stayed like that for an eternity, an explosion of emotions in our hearts. We parted a few minutes later, but it felt like forever. He remarked, "you're a damn good kisser!" I added, "And you know how to use that tounge of yours."

Coming back to our senses, I hear the ringing of a phone. It was his phone. And Arsh was calling. We laughed as he slid the icon of the electronic glass and metal rectangle. He put the call on speaker. "Where the fuck are ya, mofo?!" Yelled a drunken Arsh from the other side. I barely held my laughter. He replied, "I'm at my hotel, dumb-ass." "Asshole you left me and the boys here. Thought you'd drive us back." Arsh yelled back. The humor was unbearable and a loud laugh escaped my lungs. Asrh yelled back, "yeah! Hotel room! I'm no child. And you Advait, I hear you..." - "yeah I'm not coming back there. Book a cab or a driver. Bye." I say full of laughter as I end the call. It was already close to 2 a.m. I said, "It's already close two in the morning, I think we should go to your hotel... I mean I should drop you off at your hotel." - "huh, naughty?" He replied. I cheeks turn redder, "Shut up! There's a lot to do tomorrow, atleast for me." I replied back slowly puting my seat back in the original position. I start the engine and trun the car back towards the dirt path and we approach the concrete road. Soon we were back on the road as I accelerated towards the centre of the twon, towards the hotel where he stayed.

He questioned me, "Was this your first kiss? Just curious" My eyes well up with tears, I laughed sadly and said, "No, unfortunately not." He didn't notice the tear on my cheek and said, "I knew that. My ex-girlfriend, even her kisses pale behind yours." He added, "what happened to your..." I interrupt, "Let's not talk about him." He looked at my teary eyes and said, "Oh, I'm, I'm... I'm extremely sorry." As he put his right hand onto my left hand and comforted me. Then we stopped our conversation I put on some music. 🎶Pink flamingos... Always fascinated me...🎶 said the car spekars as the glamourous voice of Lana echoed. We sat awkwardly and songs of heartbreak flew from the electronics. Time passed a breeze and his hotel arrived. I dropped him off.

He again apologized as he left off to his room. I took off to Vaidehi's house. Tears flowing down my eyes. And then Vaidehi called me. "Did he drink again?! How much?! Where are you? Speak up bitch?!" I sobbed and said, "Yeah..." As my voice shaked. She said, "The fuck?! You're thinking about him again! Come here this instant! NOW!" I reply, "Okay, I'm on my way... "

Few tips if you wanna start commission as an artist

Hi, I'm making this article to maybe help some new artists that want to open their commissions and have some questions or need some tips! That can apply to new artist or even more experienced one. I have more than 10 years of experience in commissions, but I do not assume I know everything, feel free to comment your tips! I will update this article if needed.

Take note english is not my main language I'm sorry about the mistakes!

Let's start!

Make it easy for clients to contact you

It's better to be in multiple platform to be able to reach the most possible people you can. Make it easy for potential client to reach you, that can be on social media, email etc. At the same time, you have to take extra time to keep it up with all those platforms so I mostly keep myself with only 3-4, that's plenty enough. Also you need to know that depending of what do you draw some social media can be better than an other one.

Send the payment before starting

You always should ask at least one payment before starting anything. That can be half/half or full payment, feel free to settup the best for you and your client. Never draw anything for free, including free sketches etc.

Send previews of your work before the final

It's important for client to have a follow of the work you are making for them. It's can be a sketch or any wips, it's mostly to be sure you are in the good direction and not to start everything again at the end. This is also why I recommend to get your fisrt payment before sending previews. It's also help to keep a confiance with clients and make they feel sure about what a are your making. Always contact them if they have any issues, like delay or any complications. Just be honest at the end!

Write your conditions

A tip that I don't see a lot of artists doing, take a few time to write all your conditions in a picture with your commissions, google drive or other and send it to the client before they commission you. It can be conditions like about refund, nfts, AI art utilisation and commercial conditions etc. This is more to protect you at the end, even if the client doesn't read it you can use it to defend yourself if something bad happen. Just think about the worst and a way to protect you in any case possible.

Make your portfolio (your arts) visible and easy to access

The first thing you need it's to show to people what you can do, so make it easy for they to have access to your work. That can be with a commission post that you plug on the top or your social media, that can be a artist portfolio etc. Just take an extra care that your work is easy access for people and also represent what you want to sell to people.

Plug yourself

It's rare that if you are a new artist, people won't reach you for commissions most of the time. You have to go and see the opportunities youself. That can be as simple than just sharing your arts and plug your commissions in the post. You can also check some group, or communities when they look for an artist and plug yourself directly.

How to settup your price

They have no best way to settup your price, but if I can help I have maybe few tips you can take. The best thing is to think about time versus money, how much you are ok to draw for someone else? Take note this is your free time that you use for someone else. It's also important to know your speed. I love to set my price at 20$/h but it's maybe not possible to you. It's also depend of the demand, if you have a larger followers base your commission will fill faster because you have more client and your commission will be always full, better to rise the price to slow down the demand. Also you can compare yourself a bit to other artist in the same art style or range, but it's important to know that most people set their price pretty low in the art community. Feel free to go with what you feel, if you are not motivated to draw maybe its a problem that your price is too low! It also depend if you want to do it fulltime or it's only on part time and you are not stressed to have commission or not.

Discounts

It's not a obligation but you can make special discounts on your commission to make people more welling to commission you. That can be special day discount (Black Friday exemple) but also if you like to draw certain things (like 10% discount on certain characters on franchises). It can make you have more commissions that you like to draw , it's a win-win!

Conclusion

Hope this help some artists here, I made commissions for years now and I feel I didn't see everything yet. Thank you for reading!

So, in preparation of the movie coming out next month, I reread Red, White & Royal Blue. I just finished it, and then I rewatched the trailer for the movie, and tbh, I have some concerns.

The thing I love so much about the book is the emotion. Alex and Henry are complex people with deep emotions. Confident on the outside, but struggling and nervous and anxious on the inside. Sure, the trailer looks fun, but I'm really hoping the more vulnerable sides of Alex and especially Henry are going to be shown in the movie.

The trailer also makes it seem like Henry doesn't like Alex either, at the beginning? Like, at the beginning of the book, the fact that Henry never really started out their interactions with antagonism like Alex did stuck out to me so much. Henry himself even says it! We know that Henry liked Alex the whole time, and it's shown through the fact that he always tried to be civil while Alex was the one who started their conversations with snark and sarcasm. That's why Alex enjoyed the moments when Henry would let a bit of fight come out. That's why it was such a noticeable thing to Alex when Henry snarked back at him during his first visit to England post-wedding.

In the trailer, it makes it seem like in the beginning, Henry doesn't like Alex just as much as Alex doesn't like Henry, if not more so. Movie Henry seems so openly antagonistic towards Alex, especially in the cake scene, and tbh it just feels wrong to me. The failure to portray Henry's feelings for Alex and his reluctance to participate in Alex's antagonism like the book does (especially considering we were seeing Henry through Alex's pov) makes me worry about whether or not Henry's more complex emotions will be shown in the movie at all, and Alex's too for that matter.

Also, I noticed that in the scene where Alex and Henry talk in the kitchen at the palace during Alex's fisrt visit to England post-wedding, it seems like they took out what was important about that scene and replaced it with surface level antagonism and snark to really sell the whole 'rivals to lovers' thing or something. It's like they're trying to convince us that Henry sees Alex just as much of a rival as Alex sees Henry, when that's just not the case. In the book, that's the scene where Alex really starts to see Henry for the first time, even if just for a moment. Not the put together Prince of England, but the sleep rumpled, pajama-clad insomniac who just wants some ice cream.

In the move trailer, it shows Henry wearing a dress shirt and tie, and his tone is snarky when talking to Alex, when in the book, Henry is genuine and unsure of himself. This is another time when we see that Henry has never really tried to be antagonistic towards Alex out of nowhere. In the trailer, it seems like Henry is going to be acting in the opposite way.

I'm not saying the movie has to be a word for word exact portrayal of the book because I don't believe that. A good adaptation will inevitably have to change things, but it only works if the changes make the story better, or at least if they make sense. Right now, I can't see the benefit of changing Henry's character so much. The Henry that I saw in the trailer, at least at the beginning of it, honestly doesn't feel like Henry at all to me.

The last third or so of the trailer, especially the clip of (who I'm assuming is) Bea asking Henry if he loves Alex, gives me hope that they'll get into the more emotional sides of these characters, but tbh I'm still kind of worried.

(Also, side-note, I hate the fact that June's character was cut entirely. She was there for Alex when he needed her, and her character gave us more insight into the complexities of the first family. She showed us that kids of divorce can see things differently when it comes to their parents, and as a child of divorce myself who has had differences of opinion with my sibling, I loved seeing that in the book with June and Alex. And, of course, there was her whole dynamic with Nora. I hate that she won't be in the movie at all. I hope they don't also cut the fact that Nora is queer.)

I don't know, I was skeptical of the movie at first after just seeing the teasers (though, tbh, I'm always skeptical of book to movie adaptations at first. Maybe it's the Percy Jackson fan in me), but after the trailer came out, I had more hope. Now, after rereading the book and having all the details fresh in my mind, I'm worried again. I know that trailers are made of clips that often times make more sense in context, so I hope the movie itself gives us more than the trailer implies. It makes sense that they'd want to mostly show the happier, more fun sides of things in the trailer so people will want to watch the movie.

I get that they might just be trying to go for a fun, not super deep, silly, comedic movie kind of vibe, but tbh, as fun and silly as rwrb is, it's also so much more than that. Some of my favorite parts of the book are the more serious parts. The parts where we see Alex and Henry's anxiety and insecurities. I really hope the movie shows at least some of these moments.

I'm definitely still going to watch the movie once it comes out, but I'm kind of concerned about how the story, and especially the characterization of the characters, is going to be portrayed. Hopefully, I'll end up being concerned about nothing. The last third of the trailer suggests that this will be the case, and I really hope it is!

I think the movie can still be enjoyable even if it doesn't show us the deeper and more nuanced sides of these characters, but can you blame me for hoping to see the reason why I fell in love with the book in the first place, the deep emotions of these characters, portrayed on screen?

(Tbh, I kinda lost track of my thoughts here. I think I'm concerned about Henry's drastic change in character more than anything else. It's easy to believe that there are more emotional scenes in the movie that we haven't seen hints of yet because obviously they can't show everything in the trailer. Henry's characterization, on the other hand... we've been shown two different clips of him that explicitly imply that he will be much different than the Henry we see in the book, at least in the beginning. Again, context is everything, so maybe it'll make more sense in the movie, but I can't imagine what context could be given to make those clips of Henry character accurate. And tbh, imo, there's no excuse for replacing soft, pajama-clad Henry in the kitchen scene with a dressed, snarky version of him)

(Also, the election isn't mentioned at all in the trailer? Tbh I think the book could have integrated the political parts a bit better than it did, but I still enjoyed it, especially at the end with election night. I guess if they set the movie in current day, an election won't make much sense, but the election and the stress and responsibilities that come with it add so much to Alex's character, and I honestly hope it's still included in the movie)

Meddling Kids Redesigns

It took a while, but I finally finished all four designs of the main gang. There are still some tings I would change if I were to redesign them again, just by seeing all the other ones on tumblr.

I'll do some headcannons here, and maybe draw them again with plot ideas for a fictionalised series I would make with them.

Fist of all, they would start out as high schoolers, then go into univertity after. either way they would all be adults when the film starts

None of these guys are cishet or neurotypical sorry slays but you cant tell me otherwise

Thirdly, these guys are FRIENDS. they CARE about each other. some have been besties for years others were hard and fast ride or dies but they all really care for one another

They would initially start out unmasking people in monster costumes, but there would definitely be an overarching plot that is defiantly supernatural. by midway through season two, the monsters of the week would be real more often than not, and the gang has to turn to more spooky ways of dealing with them

Aight so

FRED

This man HAS to be nice, and reasonably stupid. He was a himbo Blueprint and we must make sure he stays that way

I want to make him into theatre tech and stuff, which he uses to debunk the monsters and point out all the techniques in the 80s horror movies he likes to watch with the gang.

I'd also say he was a prolific camper and scoutgoer as a child, and intends to work as a camp counsellor once he graduates for a little while

because of this hes pretty much a survival expert and gets pretty intense whenever they find themselves in the woods.

while he is strange himself he still is a leader for the group, and plans a lot of their moves on cases.

He and Daphne start the show dating and they are madly in love with each other, and are the bestest of friends. Fred is the more puttogether in the group though, and regularly has to stop daphne from comitting crimes like breaking and entering or simply trying to beat the monster over the head with a bat

DAPHNE

This version of Daphen would just be a pretty unhinged girlboss. she is the part of the gang who is just itching for a fight half the time, so shes been designated team muscle.

Her family is extremely rich, and while they don't really like her pastimes of going out and solving mysteries, but those funds are the thing keeping the gang going, and funding their trips, as well as bail when they get caught investigating some abandoned house or something.

She is really into fashion, specifically 70s style clothes, and spends a lot of time at home making her own clothes and things for others.

alongside that she is really into journalism, so much so that she practically runs the school newsletter when in high school, and runs it through her brilliant people skills. she intends to go to university to do a media and communications degree.

but shes also regularly unhinged and the fisrt one in the gang who would get into a brawl with a monster if given the chance. shes like a black belt in karate at least, and can definitely ride a motorbike.

I think she would encourage Fred's traps in their cases but if she was left alone she would just use a crowbar to solve her problems.

VELMA

This Velma is a todal dork. she is such a nerd its funny, bun in a way ehre the audience laughs with her. let her talk endlessly about her academic interests and cut back to everyone else dumbfounded.

Also my version of Velma isn't mean in any way. While she can be dry, witty or packed with smart comebacks, she is rarely intentionally cruel.

She doesn't believe in the supernatural at the beginning of the series, but she desperately wants to believe in everything. Cryptids, monsters, aliens etc (She was one of the kids that cried when they made Pluto not a planet anymore)

because of her eagerness to investigate she is practically uncarable, and more interested in anything spooky than she is frightful, which could be used for some good gags, especially since she never realises that she is ever out of her element

Velma brings out the nerdier side of all her friends too. she gets Fred talking about traps and survival skills, Daphne on about fashion and law, and Shaggy talking about food and films.

SHAGGY & SCOOB

Scooby doo is Shaggy's assistance dog, and that's how he is allowed to go wherever the gang does.

I've got some lore ideas about how he talks and stuff, which is basically the same as mystery inc plus some inspiration from the Magnus Archives but I'll probably talk about it another time.

I was thinking it might be funny if he talked kinda like puppycat from Bee and Puppycat, but that's just a thought, all I'm going to say is that's not a normal dog.

Shaggy also comes from a wealthier family but nowhere near as rich as Daphne. His parents really tried to shelter him as a kid after something happened in his childhood (IDK what but it was spooky) and ever since he's craved the independence that he gets with the gang

He has been friends with everyone the longest. I assume he went to a summer camp with Fred when they were little, met Velma at some kind of convention and lived close to Daphne.

He has tons of random skills and knowledge about pretty much anything. hes a trivia god and there could e a running gag that he went to a bunch of summer camps too, but for weird and niche things. he's also the kind to binge read wikipedia articles at 3am

I think we would be really into films, specifically horror and pulp films from the 70s - 90s. He probably has an interesting relationship with horror, scaring easily but still doing it for the thrill.

He also implores that in their mysteries, pointing out a bunch of the technical clues with Fred. He probably really likes mystery solving because it gives him that reassurance and control when they finally unmask them. I'm sure he starts to crack a little once they start going up against real monsters.

Hes also a really good cook and makes great playlists.

𝒫𝓇𝒾𝒹𝑒 𝓂𝑜𝓃𝓉𝒽 - 𝒮𝒽𝒾𝓃

Characters: Shin Hinomori, Mizuki Akiyama

Type: platonic, oc edit

note: I want to make a little pride month special for all of my OCs but we're gonna see how this goes- I have ideas, just need motivation and time :'>

Shin had 2 sisters, so he knew his way around painting nails, doing simple hairstyles, jawlery, clothes and even carried few pads and painkillers with him, just in case! What more... girls from his class always approached him first whenver one had cramps... which didn't go unnoticed to everyone around.

Sometimes boys approached him and he had to explain he's like that because of his siblings. But he didn't really mind! He learned to ignore it and just live his life!

So when someone approached him on corridor, he payed it no mind.

"Hey Shin! I don't want to be mean but... are you sure you're you know... a boy?"

"Hm? Yeah, last time I checked I was. Why do you ask? Is it because of my black nails? Or is this because of eyeliner this time?"

"No! I didn't even noticed you have eyeliner to be honest... I mean... it's just weird to me that you have female health supplies more often than actual girls..."

Boy with black-red hair couldn't help but chuckle. It was nice encounter for once~ Seeing how the person in front of him tried to be actually nice was surprising yet he took it gladly.

From the other end of corridor, Mizuki was walking for their fisrt, tho 3rd for their classmates lesson.

"Oh! Hey Shinny~!"

They called out and waved, but it seems like the boy they were trying to talk to was a bit too busy with the conversation...

"I mean... if you even are trans, I will still call you he/him if that's what you're worried about! Or she/her... however you really prefer it..."

"Hahaha! Thank you for checking in such a polite way but..."

"I'm not trans. But if by some miracle, I were to wake up with another gender... I wouldn't really complain!"

"(Bro's about to make a discovery ♪)"

Mizuki thought to themselves silently as they eavesdropped on their conversation. The boy claiming to not have any thought of being trans turning around and walking away.

"Oh, hey Mizuki. Fancy seeing you here. Is there some big event happening I don't know about?"

"It just happened actually~ I think I got new theories about someone!"

"Really? Care to share?"

"I think you'll know sooner or later~"

Shin simply shrugged at the pink haired person's mysteriousness. He was curious who it could be... not knowing they meant him all along!

Hello Little Nightmares fans ! I've had a little thought/theory regarding the comics that came to my mind, and I wanted to share it with you :

In the second chapter, with the Mirror Man, there's a piece of dialogue that kinda interest me :

It seems that those kids... don't really know about monsters. That's a bit odd, in the world of LN you could think that the inexistence of monsters is a pretty common knowledge. That implies that those kids live in a place free of monsters - but how ? I have two theories : Fisrt, maybe the Mirror Man killed all the others, or a least get rid of them. His predatory technique is to lure kids with reflections and then drag them into his side of the mirror. With other monster, such a thing would be harder, since the kids would be aware of the danger, plus they may not come around his manor. In becoming the only monster of the area, the Mirror Man created some kind of safe place, and since his hunts seems pretty slow / rare, the kids that live here have eventually forgetten about monsters. However, there were still tales, explainning why the girl was affraid to go. The second theory is a bit more harder to explain : First, I think the Mirror Man is the main monster / boss in the area. I will not really elaborate on this, but I think that each area / city in the LN world has a main monster that act as a leader for other lesser monsters (the Lady for the Maw or the Thin Man for the Pale City for instance). The Mirror Man has power equivalent to those two, at least way more powers than most of the monsters we saw in the three games. So, if the Mirror Man was supposed to be the one in charge there, why is ther no monsters anymore ? Well, maybe because someone trapped him.

All of the mirrors here are covered with some kind of sheet. The Mirror Man can't be the one who did it - knowing that except from his tentacles his body can't leave the reflections. It means that someone else did. Someone who knew very well what they were doing... Trapped, the Mirror Man could no longer give his order to the other monsters. Without their leader, the monsters may have died, or they may have left. In any case, there's no more of them, and they start to be forgotten as the Mirror Man remain trapped. Whoever did this might have warned the kids to stay away from the mansion, telling them what would happen if the Mirror Man was ever to be freed. But over time (we know it has been a long time because of all the spider's webs) those warnings have become tales, and in the end four kids decided to go - and freed him. Anyway, that's my theories. Who was the person who trapped the Mirror Man ? Why didn't they killed him ? What will happen now that he's free ? What do you think ?

WHY MADOVICH IS ANOTHER FORESHADOW OF TSERRIESNICH'S ANCIENT PERSONALITY

Everyone notice in this last chapter that Madovich just had the apparence of a buff Tserriednich.

BUT.

We really need to unstack each information contained in this page to better understand this. Togashi isn't just presenting a wish version of the main antagonist in this arc just for the joke (even if I laugh hard when I first saw him...like... buff Tserrie 🤣😂🤣😂)

Anyways, we will see in one hand how Madovich's presentation stands out from others before further analysis. Of course, all the descriptions are important for the scenario, but the more we discover bonuses on the Madovich one, the more we will be certain that this particular character is essential in the plot of the story and what important role will he plays in it.

As you can see each bodyguards describes themselves with 2 bubbles. One with their name and their affiliation with Tyson. One with a quick synopsis of their character roleplay.

Those 4 peoples don't have the exact same case space (Himanse's case>Hyuga's>Planet Muni Prince's>Enzel's) but their are all next to each other by pair.

Their character are all none violent one in the fisrt aspect.

Now Madovich part (🔥□🔥)

Madovich is the first one introduced. He have the 2 bubbles speach but doesn't talk in the naming part because Tyson do it.

Madovich's case side with nobody's, just the prince's chamber number. Plus, his case is waaaay larger than the others. He seems to have an aura around him while the others don't have any trace.

Finally, the character he plays is a violent one since he can only wield a gun. His background illustration (the only white on black one) even shows trace of blood.

.................................

So he is special...ok...but why in the living freak does Madovich means !??!?!

In my opinion, Madovich is really supposed to mirror how Tyson views his big brother : a very brutal but lost soul.

Madovich's character implies that he doesn't feel worthy enough to be useful to someone again. He don't even know why he forget his past all of a sudden and why the only remanant memory just have a destructive use. In the end, it's like if he is forgiven for his past and present sins because a force that he can't control prevents him to be himself. (And don't get me started over the gun wielding which is a direct parralel with Tserrie's past accident bc I this element alone just give so much information in the Tyson-Tserrie relashionship 🤯).

In conclusion, I am 99% sure that Tyson knows atleast about Tserrie incident. And I am 100% sure that before this Tserrie and Tyson actually bond pretty well in the past. Because, why does she want to forgive her brother's cruelty while she doesn't forgives her mother's one ? Why does she persuade herself that current Tserrie is a good guy who just forgot about himself and not the psycho everyone sees. Madovich character defenetively exposes her will to reunites with her brother again no matter what he did, because the love she have toward the 4th prince is stronger than her natural hatred against violence.

And THAT means something about Tserriednich's ancient personality, a mindset that created bonds so strong that even after drastically changing, the people (with whom you cut off) who loved you for who you were before still loves you for who you are now.

.

.

.

Tserrie have so many enemies but also so many friends that care for him Harkenburg, Tubeppa, the 5 bodyguards in the 3th level, Volksen and now Tyson. I love how the main antagonist have the most fanclub members in canon and he isn't even aware of it 😂🤣.

Anyways I know that I don't express myself correctly sometimes so don't hesitate to ask questions if you don't understand a point. And it will be an honor for me if you analyse something that I didn't mention 🤩.

Ok ok I stop talking for now on bye guys 👋

Jo and Dean are so fucking the same and the opposite at the same time. 

Dean want what Jo have, a parent who doesn’t force him to hunt, a parent who protect him from that, a parent who force him to go to school or college, a parent who cares. In fact, just a parent and not a sergent. 

And Jo want what Dean have, hunt things, save people, continue the family business, continue the legacy of her father. Life on the road and moment with her family (Ellen, her father, maybe even Ash). 

Jo get it for a while. Before dying because the showrunner don’t want anywant on this show to be happy. 

So yeah, I like to think about Jo and Dean, maybe in an alternate universe, finding a balance and falling in love. Dean will be on the house more and Jo on the hunt. They don’t force their children to do it, but if they want, they can. He will come to help her on big case, or just for pratice, for not losing it.

I know i’m dreaming but fuck they were one of my first ship on the show (yeah sur Cassie/Dean and Sam/Sarah but they technally happened so ssh). And I want them to be happy. NOT DEAD fhureh.

(Oh and sorry but Dean should have understand when Ellen say “It’s not the fisrt time a Winchester make me that promise.” That’s not subtle. At all.)
