110% Chris Carter knew what he was doing hiring David and Gillian (He wanted to replace Gillian with Phoebe Green's actress momentarily, after all, because of concerns over GA's acting chops and, more importantly, because Green's actress had "more chemistry" with DD) and I'll die on that hill.

At this point i'm convinced Chris Carter's strategy for the entirety of the series was just "I can pretend the intense soulmate connection between those two doesn't exist if no one can see it".

Well, first of, fuck you.

Second of, meet modern digital video editing fueled by spite, Chris.

This scene from Firewalker is one of my favourites, and now it's visible to people without superhuman eyesight too!

God, the way Mulder screams her name and she immediately reassures him even though she's completely out of breath and just almost died. Then he squats down in front of her and she just lets out the biggest sigh and melts into his touch because everything is fine now that he's there.

How gently he touches her face??????? The smile she gives him?? The silent conversation they have that boils down to "it's okay, we're both together and okay, we're alright" after they spent the entire episode basically going batshit crazy with concern????

Deeply, deeply unwell.

#txf #xf meta #S2 #Firewalker #love this ep #love this moment #great acting all around #CC #thoughts #mine #I think CC loves the eternal bait #and he wanted partnership and friendship over romance and shipping #perhaps he saw it as cheap to ship two people when you can build up their mutual love and respect #and if so I'd agree with him #we won't know because he loves lack of transparency (and changes his mind based on what will get the most click.#(Which isn't a BAD thing per say so much as a tool for marketing. Where it fails is when the audience feels continually disrespected.)

i feel like people are sleeping on the occam's razor situation of how buckwild it is to outright accuse a guy of being a clone of your friend even if you DO have a lot of circumstantial evidence. there's other options is what im saying. they could just be like. a guy. that's a sensible deduction. you should explore that deduction. ignore my shirt that reads I <3 RED HERRINGS.

i still think odile has the correct theory on lock but she's smart enough to know it needs like... a real smoking gun to be able to bring it up without sounding insane.

anyway. (mirabelle voice) i know its rude to speculate but has anyone else noticed the grieving? they seem to be grieving. does anyone have any thoughts on the grieving? i have some thoughts on the grieving.

#[isabeau voice] am i insane or does sometimes loop talk like they might have killed their whole family. is that just me? just checking.#nille design highly inspired by @kiwibrain's since its the one that imprinted in my mind. liberties taken since i didnt look @ reference #anyway i have a lot more thoughts on this? i guess ill hide them in the tags...? scroll down i suppose.#isat #in stars and time #isat spoilers #in stars and time spoilers #isat act 6 spoilers #isat loop #isat siffrin #isat bonnie #isat nille #isat fanart #in stars and time fanart #doodlebyte #----------------------------------------------------------------------#anyway the extra thoughts. are literally just my general thoughts on postcanon. (and thus are the context for all of my postcanon doodles!)#which is i think nille joins the party before loop reappears for a start (either from a period of nonexistence or just wandering around)#and that like. i think the party should be able to integrate loop as a completely new person. because they are! the secrecy isn't great but #They and Siffrin shuffle into different ecological niches in the party (eg. i think sif is more squeamish after it all but loop isnt)#and while it's not *exactly* what Loop wanted they get that beggars can't be choosers. and its pretty good #(i am glossing over how i think loop's reappearence drags both them and siffrin into a massive behavioural backslide and is likely a bit #distressing to watch go down. cycle of argument -> lovebombing -> normalcy -> repeat. etc etc. but since they are no longer literally #stewing in the worst pressure cooker of all time they do resolve it via productive conversation on their own time. its fine)#the party well-meaningly tries to deduce things from loop's vagueries and are able to pin down the DEAD FAMILY vibe pretty quickly.#but eventually the question of their prior identity falls by the wayside because well! they're just their friend loop! (also change belief)#as for how The Truth Come Out... this is what i mean by The Isabeau Torment Nexus(tm). which is that i think... isiloop should almost occur #BEFORE isabeau knows who loop is. he's just genuinely charmed by them eventually and tries to close the open end of the polycule #which FREAKS LOOP THE FUCK OUT because thats just too genuinely sick and wrong. and obviously w emotions high its not a great confrontation #ANYWAY told u i had more thoughts. if i were normal itd be a text post but.

Council of lovefools.

[First] Prev <–-> Next

#poorly drawn mdzs #mdzs #wei wuxian #jiang yanli #jiang cheng #They don't have an actual sleepover in this scene but the vibes were so sleepover coded...I had to get them cozied up.#Late night talks with friends and family are some of the best conversations.#My siblings and I used to have room sleepovers with each other (Actually an excuse to stay up and talk about runescape)#Currently my flatmates and I also have really great heart to hearts late into the night.#Pondering shit like 'What defines confidence?“ and ”Why are people terrified of letting themselves fall in love?"#All that aside; There is a really great conversation between JC and WWX here. They are so close and yet so far way from each other!#Fundamentally they *agree* about many things - but JC now has to play the role of someone more 'mature'.#His temper is reigned in and he had to take a more nuanced approach. Whereas WWX can be far more reactionary.#JC has changed to become someone more mature (or at least he is trying).#Contrast this attitude with the scene *right* after where WWX literally goes baby mode with JYL. Rolling around going “I'm Fwee years old”.#When children are hurt we comfort them with hugs and warm food and a laugh. It's not enough when you're an adult. It's not simple anymore.#WWX is stuck in the past when everyone else is shifting and moving on! It's a depression allegory (and just...actual depression)#But we also get to see how some things have stayed the same. They still bicker about soup. They still tease. They are still together.#They all care for each other very much but they are struggling against trauma and are not equipped to talk about it.#You can't really blame WWX for being so protective over JYL. But JC is right: “You don't have a say in who she likes.”#It may have started as an arranged marriage but *she* is *choosing* what her heart wants. JC sees that. WWX cannot.#The final act of love is letting go after all.

Take!!! A gamble!!!! That love exists!!!! And do!!!! A loving!!!!!! Act!!!!!!!!

#I recite this like a mantra honestly #when I'm not feeling great I think what loving act could I do today #usually its give my cat lots of cuddles and kisses #but sometimes I'll message an old friend to see how they're doing #or offer my coworker some of my lunch #love exists and love is all around us if you choose to believe it <3 #platonically physically romantically there's so many ways we can love #I aspire to be a beam of light in a world shadowed by fog #<3 #mick squeaks #rdr2 #red dead redemption 2 #arthur morgan #sister calderón #red dead redemption community

Oh god, they'll never know. I... I'll just have disappeared. And they'll always be waiting. Call them.

#dwedit #dwgifs #marthajonesedit #martha jones #freema agyeman #francine jones #*#*gifs #the way freema invented acting in this ep #i'm always rotating this scene around in my head #on one hand the writers made francine judge the doctor too quickly to be believable #so francine's reaction here comes across kind of callous #on the other hand martha's convo with francine feels so relatable #idk if it's the same for all children of colour but sometimes it's as if #your parents are much more concerned about your physical safety than your emotional wellbeing #martha was begging francine to just Talk to her #but she's so focused on tracking down the doctor to comfort her daughter when she's obviously upset #freema does such a great job of embodying both martha's grief and desperation over the situation #as well as her fierce love for her family #have i mentioned how much i adore this scene? no? well i do

oki but like merging "Cool As I Think I Am" and "If I Loved You" in the reprise is like fucking genius tbh like I am genuinely impressed by how both of the arcs explored in both songs were summed up neatly in the reprise in a sense that Pete finds his solid sense of identity and a big reason for that is Steph loving him despite not readily admitting it LIKE "If I really really did love you, you'd have to say-" "I know." ESPECIALLY WITH THE MAIN MESSAGE OF "IF I LOVED YOU" BEING THAT OF THE TWO DENYING THEIR FEELINGS FOR ONE ANOTHER BECAUSE THEY'D MAKE IT SUPER DAMN CLEAR TO THE OTHER IF THEY DID HAVE THEM SO WITH PETE SAYING THAT HE KNOWS AND WITH HIM LETTING STEPH KNOW HE DOES LOVE HER BACK BY BEING WILLING TO TAKE THE BULLET FOR HER LIKE FJSJDJAFJSJD

#I SEE A LOT OF PEOPLE RANKING THE REPRISE RATHER LOW ON THEIR LIST OF NPMD SONGS AND I'M LIKE FHZJFD #bUT THE REPRISE IS ONE OF MY FAVORITES THO LIKE LOOK HOW THEY TIE BOTH OF THE ARCS UP #anyways yea i really did like the reprise like i really really do #i'll be honest i wish i got more steph and pete development scenes because like showing them grow closer on screen #would have given act 2 a very very emotional hit as the climax revolves heavily around their relationship #but i love them all the same #i just wish we got more time with them #bUT STILL WOO GREAT REPRISE #nerdy prudes must die #nerdy prudes must die spoilers #npmd spoilers #starkid #steph lauter #pete spankoffski

Look, I enjoy the Targaryens as much as the next person and think that their house, their family mess, all of it is very interesting. I want a dragon so bad and they are one of the reasons, I get it. But, on the same hand, it gets annoying when people say/act like they are the only interesting house within ASOIAF (this rhetoric is mainly on Twitter, from what I've seen) and it primarily has to do with them having dragons (to which, for a time many Targaryens didn't have after the dance and until Daenerys came into the picture). Look, having dragons is cool and all, but if that's all that makes a house interesting then maybe that house is boring. And, could be just me, but by saying that I feel like it's lowkey disrespecting all the work GRRM put into the other houses and their characters. If the Targaryens are your favorite that's fine, but there's no need to act like the lore behind other houses also isn't just as important. I'm new to this fandom, but there are so many aspects that have pulled me in and it's sad that people ignore it just because it's not a part of one particular house.

#again i enjoy the targs and their messiness #and i want a dragon fr fr!#but im also not going to disrespect the other houses either! they are just as good if not great (acting like the martells didn't give them #a run for their money)#also back to the dragon thing how do you have rhae saying that without their dragons they're just like everyone else #and turn around and go “other houses aren't as cool without dragons” you're kind of proving her point #starks lannisters MARTELLS tyrells so many interesting houses that deserve praise too #asoiaf #a song of ice and fire #house targaryen #hotd #targ stans pls dni if you're going to be mean #also i see some refusing to acknowledge how cool some of these houses are just bc they had beef with the targs and I'm like #come on move on already asoiaf has houses backstabbing one another left & right and moving on right after #even if you dislike one character from said house (fine) that doesn't mean you can't like anything about where they come from #yall can hate on the hightowers all you want but if you look me in the eye and say you'd pick smelly kl over oldtown i know u lying #even the wiki says that kl was hastily made and has a lot of flaws bc of that but oldtown doesn't bc they took time to build #even if i didn't rock with the hightowers like that id still pick oldtown over kl

I can’t even lie over time this pathetic little elf has grown on me and now I really like her as a character. she’s SUCH a loser. and someone said that she should’ve been recruitable instead of Halsin after uncovering the Shadow Druid plot and she could’ve had a redemption arc and now I can’t stop thinking about that alternate reality

#i have no idea if it’s a controversial opinion to like Kagha or not but #like imagine if she was sent away from the Grove. not banished but temporarily sent away to think about her actions #Halsin says she can return to the circle after she’s rediscovered the oak father’s teachings etc etc #so she can join up with you in act 1 and you get a druid then and not 2 in act 2 randomly #maybe she travels with you to find redemption. you were the one who pulled her from the brink so she thinks travelling with you #will help her do some good in this world #she can have a tense reunion with the tieflings in act 2 and she apologises. some forgive her. others don’t as is their right #and she tries so hard to redeem herself but she learns that sometimes people are still hurt by your deeds and they might not forgive you #I think it’s talking to Arabella that actually gives her growth #maybe it’s Kagha who’s involved in Arabella’s powers and her learning to tame them. Arabella who has reason of all to hate her #and it takes a while and some conversation and working together but I think Arabella forgives Kagha #she doesn’t have to and Kagha never expected forgiveness from her but she DOES and that’s what gets Kagha the most #she has a big introspective act 2 moment in the middle of the Shadow Curse #regardless she is first to suggest rescuing the tieflings from moonrise. not because she wants forgiveness but because it’s right #(to show her character growth and learning to care about the refugees)#and then her quest could tie into the Shadow Curse. she wants to do better and help people #and eventually the other tieflings start to come round to her. once she’s proved she’s actively bettering herself #the kids find her funny and Mattis definitely thinks she’s a loser and not scary or mean #like okay lady sure I forgive you whatever stop crying now #Mirkon is just a little sweetie so he forgives her as long as Arabella does and then he follows her around asking loads of questions #anyway sorry those are my thoughts I think it’d be great to have a redemption arc companion in act 1 #bc Minthara is so missable if you don’t know to knock her out you just kill her #Kagha’s story would help indicate that there are hidden companions you can look out for #most of this is nonsense im so sleepy but will I stop rambling? no #also Minthara should top the hell out of this pathetic surface elf right now

Ooooo thank you for explaining the cult 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽

Would you be able to go in depth about how and why warlocks are hated or the general history or state of your world?

Hope you're having a good time zone 😊

🫶🏽

not really because i haven't really thought about it! and this isn't really my own worldbuilding, this is the general consensus from high fantasy media in general:

Warlocks in general have a reputation for being evil, practicing dark magic, and making pacts with "bad" forces - like demons! they're thought to be servants of evil & are not to be trusted. their magic is usually chaotic and wild, unlike wizardry and witchcraft with are more careful and controlled - and their magic is learned, whereas warlocks get their magic from a powerful entity via some form of payment (ex: their soul)

really, warlocks can be good or bad or somewhere in between like any magic user. but due to the nature/source of their powers, they're seen as evil. the rarity of them only adds to this, since many do indeed get corrupted by their patron - or they sought out their pact for less than savory reasons

#no one chooses the warlock path unless they're desperate / think they have no other option #so then a lot of people who make pacts are in Not Great mental/emotional condition #which makes it easy for the source of their power to manipulate them #ya dig? does that make sense?#its like... wizards are scientists. theyre careful and studious about their magic #but warlocks are Artists! they just kinda fuck around and find out!#of course you'll see wild variation depending on who you ask about this subject #irl. not - not in the au #like a different blog might portray warlocks entirely differently #but i have my own understandings / interpretations of different magic users and the like #this is one of them!#i could use the cooking analogy....#rambles from the bog #wh fantasy au #wally becomes aware of the warlock reputation very early on #so he quickly starts to portray himself as a wizard & act like it. thus - hiding the Seal at all times!#Home's tome and staff certainly help with the lie!#wally: wow! the world is so wide and beautiful!#wally a few days later: i may have miscalculated #hope you're having a good timezone as well! im always happy to Talk!
