What's tragic about Ivan is that he was never loved?

No.

What's tragic about Ivan is that he wasn't able to recognize what love he did receive, and died believing the lie that no one could ever accept him.

What Bellamy Blake deserved: NOT FUCKING THAT

we need to stop attaching morals to liking fictional characters. you dont need to defend your right to liking characters who do bad things and you dont need to spend hours justifying why you dont like a certain character either. the same way you can just enjoy a character because you can, you can dislike one too. it doesnt need to be- and SHOULD NOT be -about moral purity or goodness. now having said that. disliking dakota cole is a personal flaw and failure. please fix it

Say about red vs blue whatever you want but it is fucking comedy gold. The dialog is hilarious, dumb and clever at once and the flow is amazing and the interactions so organic (also the voice acting is A+). And season 6? Reconstructions?

Like, the shift of it. Its still silly and dumb and they are so far from competent but putting agent Washington into the mix is soo good. Like before it was a bunch of bumbling fools trying to deal with whatever dumb shit but really not wanting to and generally making things worse. Now you have wash who is driven and goal oriented and driving the narrative compared to the blood gulch crew who was mostly unwillingly draffed along by the narrative (and now Wash lol).

And the back and forth of the chairmans and the directors letter? The way it gives us crombs and little implication but not really any explanation but as time goes on you can slowly puzzle it all together. The ever growing hostility and intensity of the exchange.  The way it all falls into place at the revelation of the ai. The impact of washs line of “You are the alpha” (and frankly how fucking hilarious churchs reaction was).

The joke about the reds deleting the blues from the database as just something dumb they did that just happened to stop wash from proving church was an ai but actually shaped the story so much. Causing wash to end up in prison because he had nothing to prove his story and argue his case. The fact the unsc couldn’t take epsilon because they didn’t know about caboose. How wash could use that as leverage lately.

And yeah, it does not yet have the same amazing action scenes we get from this one goes to eleven on or anything but damn, the confrontation between wash, the director, the consoler and the meta was still so intense, like goddamit.

The line “And while the law has many penalties for the atrocities we inflict on others, there are no punishments for the terrors that we inflict on ourselves.”? Uff…

And by then, you know, right? But still the absolute gut punch of the seasons final words

Sincerely yours, the former director of Project Freelancer, Doctor Leonard Church.

RUBEN HEROIC SACRIFICE!??!?!!!!!

[airandangels]

It just occurred to me (although it is obvious) that we certainly wouldn’t have had Gravity Falls if we hadn’t had Twin Peaks, and I suspect we may not have had The X-Files. I owe hundreds of happy hours, directly or indirectly, to David Lynch.

(Hours during which I was happy, not the bar thing.)

and what’s so tragic about izzy’s death is exactly what makes it make sense to me which is that izzy was never going to be anything other than a symbol.

so much of izzy’s journey hasn’t even been about himself, especially in season 1. season 2 made him branch out, have to figure out who he is a little bit, but so much of what he does is reactionary and all symbolic of blackbeard.

izzy is at his most frustrated in season 1 because ed is at his most emotionally frustrated as well (i.e. he’s bored, feeling restless, and that rubs off on izzy). he reacts to ed’s crush on stede poorly, tries to destroy their relationship because he sees it as a threat to the persona that they crafted together. in season 2, when ed’s at his lowest point and suicidal, so is izzy. when ed starts to heal, so does izzy. and season 2 lets that be about izzy too, and his own journey, but it is still so unbelievably tethered to ed. in season 1 especially, I read izzy almost as a physical manifestation of ed’s self-loathing or intrusive thoughts.

izzy says it best in the end: “blackbeard was us. you and me.” izzy was a permanent fixture of blackbeard. he was instrumental to what ed was trying to construct, and izzy himself built it too. encouraged it. was the foundational pillar of blackbeard. that identity had higher meaning to him. except then ed didn’t want to be blackbeard anymore, and izzy was the only symbol of that life left. killing him off was, symbolically, killing blackbeard off.

and it sucks because izzy was his own person, he was growing to thrive as his own entity and learning to accept who he was, but he also spent so long being part of someone else’s person. I don’t think he regrets that. I think he quite enjoyed it, in some weird way, for a long time. izzy died before he could really even begin to fathom what he wanted for himself. besides, all he really wanted to be was a pirate.

and it’s a cautionary tale for how it’s so hard to come back from losing yourself in your own idea of somebody else, but it’s also just really sad that his death cements him as someone like that, someone who lived and breathed for other people, who spent so long being invested in a collective and the power structures that enabled it that he never got the chance to discover and embrace the kind of person he was outside of all that. briefly, a glimpse of it, with la vie en rose, but only ever an echo.

like it or not, izzy was a very inherently symbolic character. he was never going to be anything other than a symbol. he died a representation which furthered ed’s story and his journey. I think it’s devastating, I think it makes a lot of sense for ed and for izzy both as individuals and as a duo, and I think it’s the only way izzy ever would have wanted to die anyway.

I love how in Strahm's divine visions (fueled by his horniness) he imagines Hoffman as a little girl who just cries so much. Do you think he likes it when he cries, do you think he likes seeing him so desperate he breaks. Do you this he makes Hoffman beg for his Strahmcock until he cries and only then fucks him so hard he starts crying again.

oh you ABSOLUTELY hit the nail on the head here. this is basically the daily plot of the cringe NJ throuple AU..so beautiful to see it written out........also i know it's not hoffman specifically but i love to look at this screenshot and pretend it's him crying

like I get that Miraculous has its problems. But okay listen to my hot take my real hot take. I like the most recent seasons the best. Everyone like "oh the show is shit now it used to be so much better" and I'm sitting here like. Okay but there's so much interesting story and plot threads and characters and character dynamics I'm fucking insane I am invested
