them.

I just started reading the third book for Lockwood and Co and my favorite thing is the first case they are working on. Like there’s so much chaos...George manages to set Lockwood on fire and then Lucy chucks a water bottle at him to put it out and it hits him in the head and knocks him out the window. They’re more of a danger to him than the ghost at this point and it’s hilarious.

Vent, not fic

I can't decide if writing is something I... actually enjoy or not. I crave praise and validation and attention so badly that, really, I feel like I'm only writing because it's the best way to get that. I don't really want to write. I want to have written. I don't write just for fun, just for myself. The idea of finishing something and not sharing it feels completely pointless. So I've considered giving up on writing altogether because it's... not great?? For me to be so driven by external validation??? If I write, it should be because I enjoy it, shouldn't it? So if I don't enjoy writing itself, if instead I enjoy the reinforcement I get in exchange for having written and posted something, that means I should stop writing, right? Because what I actually enjoy is the attention and praise and validation?

i know at the end of last ep I was so excited about the pc dynamics being shaken up, so what i'll say is that this has gone above and beyond. pc dynamics in a full BLENDER. chetney's ex is casting death ward on him. fcg is meeting another aeormaton and being roasted for his coin faith. imogen is having her laughter played back to her and being given reassurances about her goodness. everyone thinks fearne is hot. i said "shaken up" and am now witnessing half of bell's hells whizzing around in a food processor.

good.

smthin important for me in my understanding of mr benton bentoni fraser is that yes he's got the martyr syndrome and yes he was raised in a pretty austere (but loving) environment and was probably one of those kids with an unnervingly large vocabulary and he has real issues related to living up to his father's "image" and that image itself being tarnished and doesn't often allow himself to feel his feelings and has definitely always been an outsider to his peers but...

he is also an adrenaline junkie

my man isn't just jumping off moving cars and getting in trouble and putting himself in hospital a few times a month solely for the sake of the good of the people, he is in danger to Feel Alive and if some smart mean-for-fun dommy sadist figured this out he could get himself bruised (and bossed around) whenever he wanted..... oh look, the show introduced her in s2 👀👀👀

Will you miss the show?

Yes and No. I will miss Maya and Marina. I will miss the anticipation of having new content of my favorite characters.

The show itself had more great moments and storylines than great episodes.

Hi! Bothering you again with unwanted opinions and questions.

#1- I know it's not cool to say after the whole Armie Hammer affair, but I really like "Call me by your name", I don't find it creepy, and I think Hammer did a great job in it. Sure, he looks older than 24 as the character is supposed to be, but he acted the part well.

#2- Did you watch "The Return"? I did, and boy oh boy the things I do for the actors I love. Loving Fiennes and Kenzari, I watched it yesterday; imho it was boring, overtly descriptive, and I'm really sorry to say this but Kenzari only had ONE expression during the whole movie. Considering his microacting in TOG, I almost couldn't believe he was the same actor.

The only thing I appreciated, as a small act of patriotism, was the screentime Santamaria got in the movie.

not bothering at all i love questions and opinions!!!! i dont always have the spoons to answer but i love gettin em and i love to talk about stuff!!! @ everyone here please feel free to send questions and opinions

havent seen the return yet!!! answering this bit first bc i have a lot to say about call me by your name but anyway im waiting for it to come out here (april :() for the Cinema Experience and also i can drag my classics student ralph fiennes fan beloved roommate to go see it as a mixture of enrichment and psychological torment (she doesn't enjoy adaptations that take out the gods). everything ive heard about it has been aggressively mediocre. i'm sure i'm overhyping it to myself but i'm excited nonetheless (i love art that is kinda mid)

disappointing abt mr kenzari's performance tho im not nearly as familiar with his work as i Should be (working on it) but i was so excited for marwan kenzari antinous :( oh well. the world goes on hollywood keeps making movies. maybe we still have any other night or maybe we don't i haven't checked on how that's doing in a while

On Call Me By Your Name: i know in the abstract abt the armie hammer thing i just choose not to think about it. he's pretty good in the movie. i didn't realise he was only supposed to be 24 though i thought he was like. 30.

the creepiness aspect is an interesting one to think abt!!! the reason i watched it was a) class and b) like, all of the annoying film people i know have been watching/rewatching recently, so you know, wanted to join in. almost none of them ever talk about that aspect of it, but it was also the first thing i learned about the movie as an impressionable teenager on tumblr. interesting case study.

BUT, i think it's one of those things where different people are always gonna have varying degrees of comfort with stuff, and this is probably one of them. can't speak for the book because i haven't read it, but the movie is less about their relationship than it is about elio figuring himself and his sexuality out, in a few different ways (marzia plays a major part in this too!). and some of that happens to be through his relationship with oliver. which you can side eye if you want. but in the context of the movie it's more of a narrative device to explore the idea of discovering your sexuality, growing up, changing, and also the impermanence of relationships, romantic or otherwise, that felt like they changed your life at 17. which is compelling as all hell!!!! besides elio is such a good character. he COULD have been really annoying, but chalamet is a hell of a performer, and i was warned abt one specific shot at the very end by someone else's review but if i hadn't been it probably wouldve given me a Fucjing Heart Attack.

did i find it particularly romantic? no not really i spent a lot of time side-eyeing oliver particularly hard. but did i find it interesting? absolutely. i have to hand this one to guadagnino it's a good movie . which very much snuck up on me with the emotional intensity. i did not relate personally to like, 90% of it for asexual reasons, but like i said the idea of changing etc was resonant. the MOST relatable part for me, however, was olivers reaction to love my way by the psychedelic furs. i also feel that way about love my way by the psychedelic furs

Old Mondstadt and ISAT crossover and/or swap au because I’m brainrotting so hard about them

-I have already said enough about decarabian and the king however in a swap au it would be so funny if deca not having a design is canon because. Deca being ecstatic that he not only has a physical humanoid form but a really powerful and intimidating one, meanwhile the king lamenting about how he got turned into the missing texture image. Two dimensional square.

-NB and siffrin!!! They would absolutely be best friends!! Siffrin would teach nb the best ways to use a dagger properly while nb would teach him how to play the lyre. Nb letting siffrin borrow his cecilia pin while sif lets nb try on their hat. Inseperable. Also sif and nb being confused about eachother’s age (both think the other is in their early teens, when sif is in his mid-late 20s meanwhile nb being in his mid-late teens. <- the two being made fun of by their respective parties for being short)

-Dormont worships the god of change, what if old mond worshipped the god of time? Especially since they contrast with eachother- dormont’s citizens being quite literally frozen in time, while life in old mond is stagnant over the years. Wind wisps look like tiny change gods. Dancing wind wisps. Do you see my vision. (Instead of the actual god of time being a wind wisps, wind wisps are more seen as representatives)

I have more to say, but this might be too much to fit into one ask so I’ll split it into multiple <- too many thoughts

SHDHDHDHDHDJD THE KING JUST ONE DAY POPPING OUT OF EXISTENCE TO TURN INTO A STARRY NIGHT, A CASTLE ON THE HORIZON,,, a crown even ,,, and you can hear him complaining miles away IS so super funny oh my god, giggling. ohhhhh…. bright one ….. They turned me into a png 😔 …

but also REAL that would be such an apprehensive fight,,, decarabian feels like smthn otherworldly sometimes, we don’t know his origins so far, so to have him that Tall ?? to have him looming over everyone …. Wuh . Wuh Oh . like everyone needs all the luck and skill they can get because that seems like a . soulsgame boss fight where you just spotted a stumbling 25 foot horror and they’re running for You, the sky blooming into darkness, the cut string of a chord going taut accompanying it. but also him …. being more visually of the “eye of a storm now” too …

also god yeah the age confusion 😭😭 that would be such a treat and a half to get to witness in full. nameless bard thinking he has it down on lock and then one day siffrin is like oh . yeah . im almost thirty ? and loses his entire mind over it. how LONG ???? WHEN . (AND UEAH YEAH YEAH . yeah . i think it’s especially funny because even nameless bard, resident old mond shortie, is still taller than siffrin is. mostly because it seems venti himself is somewhere between 5’4”-5’5”, nb being maybe a smidge ?? taller ?? like rip siffrin and your 5’1”ness your shorty buddy can also join in on the teasing 😔 …. however he is a ride or die so !!!!) (<- but like. oh my godd. both of them making plans to add their heights together because dammit they want this object and they’re not gonna let it get past them bc it was too high) (<- immediately becomes a deer in headlights when one of their crew spots them. it was for the greater good.)

AND NAMELESS BARD BEING TAUGHT THE WAYS OF A DAGGER !!! CHEERS !!!!! he would be listening So Intently, he may make a few. injury ouchies, but mark his words he will Learn this. siffrin learning memory of menace because this will have 100000% good consequences dw about the name nb is going to be so normal abt this. don’t even worry. good friend siffrin is it possible to juggle knives. but also 🥺🥺 ohhh them sitting down to make music …. the possibility of siffrin remembering an old tune from his childhood, maybe some kind of lullaby ……. nb trying to perfect it so the memory never truly gets to fade….. Ough …. ohhh …. trying to look to the stars, and see if he could match the twinkling of them…

also wind wisps being the representatives sound SO SUPER INTERESTING i am looking i am looking so hard. you see these little guys, simply appearing as though out of thin air, simply going with the breeze, and you know something is about to go very very very wrong ….. good omens, bad omens, perhaps …. depending on what they do ? but anyways — YES HELLO ???
