#he looked nice here uwu👍

[cheeseknives]

Yes....

...why are you looking at me like that though...

[helluvapurf]

*deep breathes* Sooo, those last couple mins from the latest "Full Moon" ep... lets talk about that🍵🍵

Welp, here it is folks... the ep that finally gave us that hyped up "Asmodeon crystal" exchange teased at in the S2 Pt. 2 trailer. And... hooooo boi, I have formed so. many. thoughts. upon rewatching that scene a few times. Some that are... kiiiinda on the rant-y spectrum the more I lingered on 'em, so how bout I share them here lmao

Fair warning in advance, this maaaaay not be particularly "nice" to Stolas in these rambling thoughts, so if anyone out there's a big Stolas(+itz) fan... yall might wanna skip reading ahead- lol .w.;;

*claps*

Okay, so to start things off on a (semi?) positive note, the animation & lighting here is quite beautiful to look at. The glittery curtains, the shine in Blitz's eyes throughout his shifting emotions, even the shots of that one broken chandelier (which I thiiink might've been the same one him & Stolas played under as kids?) was a neat bit of symbolism ngl.

Props to Brandon Rogers as well for his voice-performance on Blitz here cause... gawd did it hit me in the heart how much hurt you feel from his yelling ;-;💔

Curious to see more of the use of Blitz's new Asmodeon crystal in future adventures (esp from that one shot in the trailer w/ him using the portal effects against the DHORK crew), it looks cool~ ✨👍

....ummmm, ok I think that about covers my positives atm. Onto the problems I have with this exchange:

Stolas... okay, you were this close to actually doing a good job ending the Full Moon deal. Admitting to how "wrong" the transaction part of their dynamic was, allowing Blitz more "freedom" via-the crystal (that could also help avoid any legal issues that the Grimoire gave), even wishing him good luck with his I.M.P. business as the night drew to a close... ...buuuuut then Stolas just had to muddle everything up by his whole "even tho you don't have to be with me, I want you with me if you want it~🥺" ...which honestly came off selfish to me than anything else?? Like, dude... if you really ARE regretful of how long you let this deal go for, and truly DO want to let Blitz go... you CAN'T throw in such sappy, lovey-dovey words on top of that?? Otherwise, how can one blame Blitz for getting as confused & flustered as he was throughout that convo... you've basically just sent even more mixed-messages in the grand scheme of things, my dude-🤦‍♀️

"I have wanted you for SO long, the fact that you couldn't believe that I might have these feelings about you, that your first instinct is that its always about sex..." ...Ummmmm Stolas... did you seriously forget HOW this whole deal of yall's started?? 🤨 Waaaay back in the initial-series pilot, to the first official ep, and pretty much the majority of Season 1:

As far as I checked, Blitz wasn't the one who kept making everything about sex... that. was all. YOU. 😒Heck, literally one of the first things you told Blitz upon reuniting as adults in "The Circus", was that you expected he wanted to "ravish" you-

-so like, get outta here with the whole pushing-the-perv-responsibility-bs onto Blitz... you ain't helping your case >>

Finally... like, it was already getting bad enough by the point of Blitz begging & pleading out of fear he'd lose his livelihood without the book, AND not being allowed space to breathe after getting further pushed away (and thus, more pissed off-)... but THEN on top of all this, Stolas just haaaaad to throw in this lil gem: "Blitz... I think so very highly of you. I didn't realize you think so low of me..." ...Stolas, with all due respect... stfu with that lousy, last-minute uwu-ing self-pity party crap😑Just because you TRIED to show more attentive care & concern post-"Ozzie's", outside of the typical bedroom stuff... that ain't gonna prove shit if you're not gonna be consistent with it. Where was that "high opinion" of Blitz during the two of you getting stuck in the sitcom set during "Seeing Stars", when Blitz was having that panic attack performing live, where all you ended up doing was... just hitting on him/praising his bedroom skills again?? 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️

Like... couldn't you have just, I dunno... TRY to actually cheer him up/comfort him like an actual friend, would? Encourage him on his jokes, "just be yourself", promising another way out of there on his own merit... literally, anything could've worked fine and it wouldn't have come off so skeezy imho >>;;

...*sighs* so, yeah... thats basically what I had to get off my chest regarding the ending of "Full Moon". Honestly, had the writers actually committed to Stolas cutting off Blitz (even if harsh), giving the crystal with no strings, then going about their separate ways afterwards, I would've been totally fine with the scene tbh. But all this... odd lowkey-blaming of Blitz thrown in, the sappy words, and Stolas not once actually-apologizing during all this (Like, literally I checked and the only utterance of "sorry" seemed to come from Blitz's end before he got kicked out... for what, I dunno- 🤷‍♀️). Sorry for the length btw, but hopefully that about covers my thoughts on the matter-

The Spirealm Ep 6 Reaction

fair warning: in these episode reactions I'm not gonna pretend I haven't read the novel. in fact, I purposely finished the novel before viewing, to get The Full Experience. thus novel spoilers, including twist end, included.

🙌 client sleeps on the floor time 🙌 (LQ: I can sleep on the floor. RN: NO.)

Creepy X agent listening at their door and setting up the newbie.

Spikes stabbed through the wall while they sleep! Not ok!!!!!

This is why in a survival game you sleep fully clothed!

"Are we really going to treat the kids this way?"

"There's no room for mercy."

I fucking love how creepy the whole forced holding an egg in your mouth thing is.

Lock picking skills and THE DOOR \o/

lmao after RN snarks at agent X, "so that's your new partner" and makes a face at her, he turns and flashes this little smile at LQ as he says, "let's go." The bias is so strong.

yaaaaaaaaassssss the newbie is losing it. Things are falling apart. RN looks as enthralled as me.

LB is supposed to be standing guard while RN sleeps (as they all take turns), but does he sit in the chair? no. He sits on the bed next to RN, and talks out loud to him so there's no way he'll sleep either lol.

Nevermind, they're just gonna go to sleep together and hope no monsters try to kill them overnight.

.... that lasts about 15 seconds 👍

ah, LQ discovers that RN tried switching their eggs so the monster will target only RN. He's so low key about it. I like how understated it is, though of course LQ understands the significance of every time RN protects him.

"Here's yours."

You just know those crossed hands were blocked that way on purpose.

The way that RN then just matter of factly drops his on the floor, completely crushed. "My hand slipped. I must have been delirious."

Look at that lying uwu face

LQ doesn't even bother to buy what those eyes are selling and he once again probes, tests, why are you taking such good care of me?

He suggests maybe it's about recruiting him to join Obsidian, but imo I don't think he actually believes it's mercenary. It's that... it all feels too good to be true. (His repeated questioning reminds me a little about how Cha Yeowoon in 'Love for Love's Sake' finally laments, in distress, that he doesn't understand why Tae Myungha is treating him this way. And he's told, why can't someone just decide to be good to you? In both dramas, Ruan Nanzhu & Tae Myungha are indeed hiding some critical context but that doesn't mean the care is false.)

In this case, RN tells him: "I think you're talented. I want to be friends with you."

"You came through this door just to help me, didn't you?" RN spins a story, but neither LQ or the audience buy his bluster. Plus, there's delicate piano music again ;)

"I believe in you. .. Because I see a light in you that others don't have."

(this is VERY INTERESTING in lieu of the fact that in the novel, 12th Door God!RN apparently saw something so special in Actual Leader of Obsidian!LQ such that he falls in love and creates this entire long game for them both to lose their memories & develop a relationship asdfghjk)

awwwwwwwwwwwww LQ gives a tiny smile with, 'ok' and agrees they'll escape the door and then he'll go PICK UP CHESTNUT THE CAT AND COME FIND HIM 💕💕💕

Clasped hands! Heart eyes! RN: "Agreed."

LMAOOOOO the way they're still romantically holding hands while our leading lady jolts up sleep-talking about accepting a Best Actress award. Nice bit of comedy to break the mood, so it doesn't cross over into cheesy.

lol next morning, RN: whose sleeping posture looks better, mine or Xu Xiaocheng?

LQ, a savvy husband-in-training, "Both look good." Nice save, sir! Couldn't have done it better myself.

Yaaaaaaasssss the bloody cake!

HELLO 😋 It's your friendly neighbourhood inconsistent tumblr user 😎👍

I've recently been thinking about all my moots that are either in college or are working because I'll be going to uni in a few months kjhgfd (EXCITING AND NERVE WRACKING)

How are you doing??? It's nice to see Suho is back. What's your favorite color? Are you taking care of yourself, taking enough breaks, and drinking enough water?? Any interesting updates to be given on the place you work at? 👀

(YOU'RE FREE TO SKIP THE NEXT PART, IT'S SO LONG.)

THAT REMINDS ME. A FEW DAYS AGO i had a dream where i secretly got myself a part time job at a daycare because my parents wouldn't let me work as a high school student. i grew attached to the kids and one day, we took the kids on a field trip to a police station where i saw a friend who did something illegal??? he warned me not to go into some room because it's unsafe but didn't state why and since i was angry at and disappointed in him, i didn't listen (the dream slowly turned into a nightmare). we went into the room and after a while mark lee, my coworker who was sitting at the back, instructed everyone to stay calm and slowly exit the room. there was a beehive (wthh😭) hidden under one of the tables near him and the bees are the type to sting. I accidentally look at the hive and my trypophobia (fear of holes) struck, causing me to have a panic attack. Half of the kids were able to get out of the room safely but I think one of the kids sees me panicking and trips over the leg of the table and all the bees come out and start stinging people. I shielded the kids and most of them got out without any stings. Once we were all out, I fell to the floor and cocooned myself bc holes holes holes holes 🥲 and cried silently as the ambulance came and my friend (who i have a half crush on 🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️) tried to get me to stand and walk to the ambulance to be treated but i wouldn't budge.

oh god this was a literal brain dump i'm so sorry😭
