You already know how it ends. What matters is that, through their bravery and sacrifice, they saved us all. Remember Reach. Remember Noble Team.
(Note: Since you can play Noble Six as either male or female, both are represented in this vid - maleSix is in the gray armor, femaleSix is in red. 😉) For entertainment only. If you watch, I hope you enjoy! 💖

Me: [sees everyone talking about how Assad Zaman was "literally" coming up with RPF about himself and Eric Bogosian in an interview]
Me: ah, fandom's doing its little "interpret an innocent comment in Some Kind Of Way" thing again, let's go find the video and do our own critical thinking about what was actually said here--
Assad: What would happen if I said-- [words that cannot be interpreted as anything but RPF fanfic]
One of the things I realized when I watched Fury Road directly after Furiosa:
Furiosa doesn't treat Max like she treated Jack. She treats Max like Jack treated her.
There are so many parallels - the way they meet, their conflict with each other that quickly turns to partnership, their journey to The Green Place (and how it fails)...
But where before it was Jack reaching out to her, now it's Furiosa who is asking Max his name, teaching him the kill sequence for the rig, trusting him to have her back in a fight, giving him everything he needs to leave (even when she wants him to stay).
Furiosa doesn't see Jack in Max, she sees herself. Everything from the muzzle to the nightmares to the fact that he barely speaks is a direct parallel to what she was like when she met Jack, and Furiosa knows it. And so as someone reached out to her, she reaches out to him, this feral, half-mad Wastelander. She reaches out and offers him hope, just like Jack did to her when he came back for her on the Fury Road.
merlin’s secret being a visual thing. when he is around arthur or gwen or leon or morgana or [insert whatever character here] merlin seems pale and thin, almost like a ghost or an apparition. when the sun lands on him he reflects it like a corpse, he eyes seem dark and dull. he has this ethereal beauty to him, this otherworldly visage that leads many to believe he is of fae blood. he just doesn’t seem to be 100% human. but when he is ONLY with lancelot or gaius (cough or gwaine bc gwaine DEFINITELY knew) merlin is heartachingly human. merlin shines in the sunlight, colors are brighter and more vibrant around him, and his smiles are wide and his laughs are boisterous. he takes on color and leaves everyone wanting to know him. but when other join in or interact with the two, merlin shifts before their eyes so quickly and suddenly that they aren’t sure whether or not what they saw was a trick of the light. the idea still leaves them wanting more and wanting to see the merlin who is just so full of life but that merlin only appears for a small select group of people. merlin who has a guard so high that it has an effect of other’s perception of him.
i feel like we don’t talk enough about that one moment in crooked kingdom where wylan asks jesper if being a criminal is really what he wants for his future and jesper says yes but then he reaches out to untangle wylan’s satchel and says “but it’s not all that i want.”
New ending for gae'zel just dropped. You tell me there's any way Gale is going to choose not to join Lae'zel in the Astral Plane? You know this nerd is studying the Astral Plane every spare second he has between fights
Hey guys Hephaestus has glasses in the livestream animatic. I know its just for funsies (and also probably based on Jorge's dad, who was the singer), but you guys know what this means????
A possible canon explanation for Polites having glasses CAN be a 'gift of the gods' now, except not from Athena as some people have jokingly suggested. It can be from Hephaestus instead, lol.
(ALSO, recall how Hephaestus's brief argument was 'trust isn't given, it has to be forged', which can be an echo of Polites's philosophy, which was something like 'show trust, and be trusted in return'.
There's SOMETHING there that can be played with between two characters that didn't show up much in the musical. One more than the other.)
I love flower husbands. And flower wives. And flower court. And flower ranchers. And ranchers. And flowerwood. And majorwood. And firewood. But GODDAMN do we need to bring back just mushing these motherfuckers' names together to form a ship name this shit's getting out of hand.
I love the little bits of humor they throw into I Cannot Reach You.
Yui and Soichiro see Yamato and Kakeru kiss on the bridge and their taiyaki happen to be kissing too. Soichiro actually notices, but just continues on.
The claw machine doll Yamato won for Kakeru is sitting happily when everything is calm.
