North Mural, and the V.H.Z. era
The timeline of Goodbye Strangers isn't strictly linear (or, rather; it's multi-dimensional), which is why the VHZ era has numerous "entry points". So, something I don't think I've mentioned is that within the world of North Mural, Default and Bracey don't escape the Red Hell Engine, and are killed by Argona and Olivia. Default is heavily experimented on by Olivia before his brain is removed (and experimented upon further), and Bracey becomes Argona's general test subject. (It's weird and a little scary to think about this, haha.)
This major jump in technology marks North Mural's entry point to the VHZ era – Default's neural tissue becomes the basis for the kaleido-rooms and other kaleido-technology, for example, whereas Argona's experiments lead to major advancements in stranger extrusion. And, this sort of 'entanglement' (with these diverging alternate pasts) is also why the V.H.Z. era is fundamentally unstable… linking it to the meta-level/cross-dimensional catastrophe of the Flood.

How much longer 'til your luck runs out?
[First] Prev <–-> Next
#poorly drawn mdzs#mdzs#jiang cheng#wei wuxian#Aaargh...I have so many thoughts about this scene.#This is a hard goodbye. I'm not your burden to bear. Not anymore.#This is the culmination of years of miscommunication. There was so much love there. They trusted each other with everything once.#I think it is easy to hear the anger in JC's voice and consider him the aggressor in this but listen to the words not the tone.#It is anger yes - but it is an anger born out of love.#Jiang Cheng wanted him to live - damn the rest of the world to hell if that's what it took. And Wei Wuxian chose strangers over him.#Sometimes two people who once flourished together become each other's worst wounds.#A goodbye to someone you once would have done anything for is a wound you don't easily recover from.#Jiang Cheng could have stood at Wei Wuxian's side and joined him. Consider though; as a sect leader his life is not his own anymore.#JC cannot just abandon the fledgling New Yunmeng Jiang without also dooming people.#And that is the lynch pin of it all. Both of them are trapped by duty. And the older they got the more tangled the web became.#The song I linked (Hi Epic fans) is such a good JC and WWX song that doesn't fit this scene exactly#But it does fit *them*. The words of warning that go dismissed. The Tactical Genius who continues to press on.#The seeds of doubt that grow louder until they creep towards mutiny. Ultimatly this *is* a mutiny! It *is* betrayal!#'You rely on wit and people die by it'. Is that not Wei Wuxian?#Just smashing my brainworms together over here. Don't mind me.

Steve tries to stay quiet while he gets ready for work, but Eddie hears him. He keeps his eyes closed and just listens- to Steve grumbling to himself when his hair doesn’t sit quite right, who starts to hum and whisper some catchy song. Eddie turns his sleepy gaze onto Steve as he shuffles around their room- watching quietly as he slips on his clothes, his shoes, a simple chain with Eddie’s ring around his neck. A warm, affectionate smile breaks across his face. Before he leaves, Steve glances at what he expects to be a sleeping Eddie, but instead, he’s met with a rasped, ‘Hey.’ Eddie sits himself up, stretches his arm across Steve’s side of the bed, and reaches, fingers wiggling. Steve crosses the room to cradle his face.
Their foreheads press, noses bump, and Steve brushes his fingers across scars and dimples.
He breathes a quiet,
‘Sorry, I didn’t mean to wake you.’
Eddie huffs a tired laugh,
‘You know I never mind.’
Because, yeah.
Every morning Steve tries to stay quiet while he gets ready for work, but Eddie always hears him.
( another one from the poll | WIP )
#in my feels this fine morning#eddie cant let steve go without his goodbye smooch#i imagine eddie would sleep through anything#but i also like to think he lets himself wake up#he likes to watch Steve’s morning routine#which may or may not include winking at himself in the mirror when his final once over checks out#steddie#steddie fanart#steve harrington#eddie munson#stranger things#i changed Steve’s face from the WIP.. it needed better angling#I’m not a writer so please ignore grammar and whatever other problems lol#i type like i read it in my head#so hopefully it sounds alright

I see a lot of references to the scene in Goodbye Stranger where Dean, on his knees, begs Cas to come back to himself (and to Dean), and I see a lot of reference to Dean referring to praying as begging, but not a lot about how these scenes are literally in back to back episodes? Dean Winchester really said I don't pray because it feels like begging, but I'll pray to you, and then in the literal next episode said fuck it, let's drop the pretense, I am begging. I need you.
#again#i could talk about faith in supernatural forever but good god the prayers alone#there's so much to be said about how Cas acts in place of the divine for Dean Winchester y'all#i do not need another project#but an essay on Cas's God complex met with Dean's religious faith in him???#add it to the list#8.16 Remember the Titans#8.17 Goodbye Stranger#supernatural#spn#dean winchester#destiel#spn meta

men will say shit like "what broke the connection?" after they got on their knees in front of another man, let him hit & bloody their face while telling him how much they need him between the punches. wild.

When a typical virus attaches itself to its host, it duplicates, right? It spreads, essentially hijacking the host… What is so unusual here is that this virus, the infected hosts seem to be communicating.
Stranger Things season two (2017)

fine, you want to know the truth? I'll tell you the truth.
if you were a teacher, I would fail your class, take it over and over again until you notice me. if you were a waiting room, I would never see a doctor, I would sit there with my first aid kit and bleed. I wanna be the power ballad that lifts you up and holds you down, I wanna be the broken love song that feeds your misery and I can wish all that I want but it won't bring us together. plus, I know whatever happens to me, I know it's for the better. and when broken bodies are washed ashore, who am I to ask for more, more, more? but you're breathing in my open mouth, you're that gun in my lips that will blow my brains out. I wanna make you drive all night just because I said "maybe you should come over". wanna make you fall in love as hard as my poor parents teenage daughter. she'll be the best you ever had if you let her. know its for the better. know its for the better. know its for the better. know its for the better. know its for the better. know its for the better. know its for the better. know its for the better. know its for the better. know its for the better. know its for the better. know its for the better. know its for the better. know its for the better. know its for the better. know its for the better. know its for the better. know its for the better. know its for the better. know its for the better. know its for the better. know its for the better. know its for the better. know its for the better. know its for the better. know its for the better. know its for the better. know its for the better. know its for the better. know its for the better. know its for the better. know its for the better. know its for the better. know its for the better. know its for the better. know its for the better. know its for the better. know its for the better.

all the good omens fans crying about their angel fave unable to be with his crush because he's trapped by the cult-like corporation of heaven. you guys would not survive spn season 8 where heaven is literally brainwashing cas to make him murder dean with his own two hands and he has to fight against it while dean begs him to stop
#i know ppl have mixed feelings on season 8 but goodbye stranger literally hte episode of all time like ok. cinammontography#good omens#aziraphale#crowley#crowley gomens#ineffable husbands#aziracrow#supernatural#spn#destiel#deancas#castiel#dean winchester#the pig squeals

Headcanon that Cas violently made out with each Dean clone until they dropped dead from sheer gay panic
Naomi, having watched the whole thing, steps out from the shadows and remarks ‘crude but effective castiel, no hesitation, you’re ready’
Then Dean and Cas fuck nasty in that tomb
