#had to encapsule this feeling

[studywithvictory]

9 January 2024 -

I met and fell in love with someone that speaks Dutch... I've been studying myself feral ever since.

Found a cute little shop in my hometown that sold Dutch treats and gushed for an embarrassingly long time.

Anyone wanna be friends on Duolingo? 🥺 (link in reply!)

what are ur thoughts on phoenix and maya's relationship? saw a post the other day talking about how they're not really sibling coded and it got me thinking. (ie the fandom kinda shoe-horned them into that)

personally i think maya was ride or die for him from the moment he got arrested for her (see her offer to break him out of there) but didn't really see him as a sibling until later (maybe when she gives him the magatama?) whereas i think phoenix felt like he had to look after her for mia, but didn't really see her as a sibling until farewell my turnabout.

Honestly to me, they're just really good friends, legitimately the other person's best friend ever! Kind of like platonic soulmates if that makes sense! I used to also really lie the found family trope, but fandom just basically turned it into the nuclear family with extra steps, and that defeats the point of it to me. I definitely think they consider the other family, but there's not that specific role they'll assign to the other person-- just a sort of nebulous concept of family, like home is where the heart is rather than 'siBLiNgSsSsS!!", hence, platonic soulmates XD I really like your breakdown of the relationship, I think Maya definitely warmed up faster to Phoenix than he did to her, she just kind of seems like that kind of person that can figure out someone's vibes, where Phoenix is definitely a lot more guarded. She's not afraid to be more vulnerable, even as early as 1-4 where she says she wishes she didn't wake up. It definitely shows that Phoenix is still super guarded around her when he absolutely refuses to even talk about Edgeworth's "death". I think 2-4 was sort of a wake up call for him, not only because he had to step up to make sure Pearl was doing okay, but it was when he realized he really did care for Maya a lot, she's not the Chief's little sister, she's HIS friend Maya!! It really makes T&T really special where they kind of have this unique rapport that wasn't seen before, where Phoenix is somewhat more playful/relaxed/open with her (until the ex-girlfriend shaped elephant lingers in the room, which, honestly, fair, who would really want to open up about THAT mess?) So yeah, hope you enjoyed my little ramble!! :D

I could see Jimmy's struggles on Earth being more about keeping a job/supporting himself. I definitely agree he's had some issues with police, but it's minor stuff like getting into fights at bars or petty thief.

Especially with his horrible personality, it's probably was hard not only finding a decent job, but one he felt comfortable in/believing he was a part of the team.

Giving him a laundry list of crimes makes it seems that predators like him are easy to spot when that's completely not true.

This exactly!!!

I’m not saying that Jimmy is like someone who slips under the radar completely, he does and says shit that’s weird, abrasive, threatening even but it’s never to the extent of outright suspicion. He’s just before that category and that’s part of the struggle. You have people like Curly that see the parts that aren’t all bad, even if they aren’t great, and those that don’t want to be involved when he steps over the line. On Earth, him crossing the line was seen with a sort of inevitability, people like Curly are much farther and fewer between.

He has a bad record but not an horrible one. He’s rude and abrasive but not outright violent. He’s bad with people but not in a way they stay away from him, he can’t keep them around outside of like Curly and non-comital pals, they probably don’t see enough of him to care. Jimmy’s in the perfect situation where he can just scrap by on his own but he’d be miserable. He’d always be on the cusps of comforts and stability someone like Curly or Swansea or Anya are stable enough in.

It’s why it’s easy to see why he could be given the benefit of the doubt. Why someone would pity and try to give him a step up or even try to find him a way out when he fucks up. He’s already pretty fucked in life why make it harder? But it’s the exact reason why you kinda shouldn’t. It can embolden the worse parts of him but he isn’t naturally trying to get away with the worse, it’s just he will if he starts to realize he can.

the lack of fandom insanity about aloy hzd is crazy to me.....she was literally born of immaculate conception to be the saviour of a world that doesnt want her. she was the loneliest girl in the world the first and last of her kind. while gay

anytime i see a picture/video of miles and alex laughing or simply staring at each other during taotu or in 2011/2012, i always think about this line from @stereobone’s absolutely gorgeous ‘the italian job’

‘their love was so enormous neither of them knew where to put it’

and then i cry all over again

ok soooo im like 5 episodes into dear brother and i need you guys to know how much i love rei so far if only for her staggering around like a rain-soaked stray dog just haggard and unseeing all the time. like we know very little about her thus far except that every scene she's in she steals the show by flopping and wilting all over the frame

[3416]

haven't listened to the anthology yet, but i do think her music is suffering from the sheer quantity she's putting out while doing all this other stuff tbh. feels more like an overproduced electronic cashgrab than real layered music despite some tortured lyrics. like ttpd the first half has such a sameness to over half of it.... and that sameness is tied to midnights too imo. i really wish i could experience the joy of albums like 1989/folklore/evermore and def her country earlier stuff but. she can be a lyric writing machine (she needs someone to veto some of it thoughnfjdkfjd feels like no one can tell her no) but not lean on the exact same production style for this long bc it's kinda getting old to me and i really do enjoy so much of her discography like 😭😭😭 idk. i know swifties are just gonna eat up whatever she does, and i've always been in between the absolute worshipping crowd and the absolute hater crowd but some of the music/production part is so uninspired.
