Only took a third watch for it to really hit me. But Louis completely missed Lestat throwing himself on the sword during the trial. He admitted to willingly breaking the second vampire law, and that if they're going to put Louis, Claudia, and Madeleine on trial, he should be tried with them.
Lestat knew the coven wouldn't harm him. He was trying to save them. That was why he came. Not for revenge, as Louis thought, as all the vampires there thought. He came to find a way to save them. But Louis was too caught up in recalling his spotty memories that he didn't notice it. Like much of their relationship, Louis wasn't really listening to Lestat.
I know it had to be this way for the narrative, but... Damn I just made myself sad.
#poor lestat#i mean don't get me wrong#he was definitely not blameless#but Louis had a real knack for taking him for granted#and not seeing what was right in front of his face#oblivious louis#louis de pointe du lac#ldpdl#lestat de lioncourt#loustat#interview with the vampire#iwtv

I mean as someone who grew up watching Stephen Salvatore being shown as a highschooler on a weekly basis for years and watch Cullens on the screen in highschool, I actually find it quite easy to accept Charles, Edwin, Crystal and Niko as highschoolers. Like they're literally babies in comparison.
#dead boy detectives#they actually do look the part#i don't understand why some say they don't.#like remember vampire diaries?#I mean don't get me wrong#I love tvd#but you see what I mean?#edwin payne#charles rowland#crystal palace#niko sasaki

Gods, the whole Redditors self-inserting as Boimler thing is probably why some of them are so adverse to the idea of Boimler being queer, even though Mike McMahan said that everyone is "baseline bisexual" (also some of them said T'Lyndi should just be friends, but the same logic also applies to their m/f T'Lyn ship). I also wonder if they think Boimler being queer is "weak" or "unmanly" to them, and thus, feel personally attacked when people headcanon him as bisexual.
Yeah, I try not to psychoanalyze strangers on the internet too much - and gods know, I have certainly projected onto characters in ways that were actively counter to their canon personalities, so I don't want to judge to harshly - but it does seem like some of the folks who project onto Boimler (especially on Reddit) do so in a way that perpetuates sexism and homophobia, and it's not great.
#thanks for the ask!#I mean don't get me wrong#as a bitch who loves rules So Much and will infodump at you about the history of my own line of work ad nauseam#I definitely get the appeal of projecting onto Boimler#but the thing about projecting onto tv show characters is#you do have to be a little bit self aware about who the character actually is vs. what you're projecting onto them#easier said than done I know#but you gotta at least try

some weeks I miss del.icio.us's popular-by-tag page more than most
#I mean don't get me wrong#I appreciate the existence of https://pinboard.in/popular/fandom !#but like#my kingdom for a grab-bag selection of 'the best that fandom's bookmarking this week'#that isn't just a who's-who of a) those two firefighters b) the canon main pairing of an MXTX novel but in Slightly Different Predicaments#I miss getting baited into a strange new fandom because a dozen people bookmarked a novel-length wotsit out of fucking Voltron or something

Revisiting Kingdom Hearts, it's clear that so much of Xehanort's bullshit could have been prevented if Eraqus had managed to give his large adult son a hug and tell him good job once in a while
#maybe then terra wouldn't have been leaping to commit atrocities for every obvious villain who said a nice thing to him#i mean don't get me wrong#terra is my boy#but he's also one gullible motherfucker#kingdom hearts#birth by sleep

So for this year's Fest I'm diving back into the world of classic Bond films with one of my projects and OH MAN has it been fun. Sometimes I forget Bond can just be a silly guy who likes going places. I need to do a rewatch of the older films more often.
#i mean don't get me wrong#there has been some craig!bond stuff for the same project that's torn my heart out#and dalton really nails sad cat!bond#but i've been looking at so many great fun scenes and it's been so good

can't believe that skeleman has turned on us, and Halloween Prom is tomorrow.
(what a top-tier UM...we are about to be just totally obliterated in the absolute silliest way. what possible use could this power have outside of bringing us to the brink of utter holiday disaster.)
#art#twisted wonderland#twisted wonderland spoilers#lost in the book with nightmare before christmas#hajimari no halloween#unique magic posters#this was so unforseeable!#i hope malleus gets pumpkinified immediately and sebek has to carry him around on a little velvet cushion#i hope jade puts his plant knowledge to good use by being extremely judgy about the firmness of everyone's rind#i hope that everyone is still wearing their silly little hats as pumpkins#(i know they won't. but if we don't have hope we have nothing.)#and i'm still feeling like oogie's gotta show up later and menace jamil just by existing#perhaps we'll have to team up against him with the scullsman or something 👀#also just to get it out before being proven entirely wrong#my theory is still that he's from the past and we gotta teach him about the True Meaning of Halloween (aka candy and funtimes)#so he can go back to his own time and become the founder of modern-day candy and funtimes halloween or something#bootstrap paradox be damned#i could be entirely off-base but that's what i'm thinking right now#idk he just has the vibe of an old-timey boy to me#he's had the great misfortune of being born before there were hot topics where he could meet other jack skellington fanatics#too late for the black plague too early for the black parade 😔

You don't wish your disability was worse or more visible, you wish your disability was taken seriously. Please stop confusing the two, I guarantee you would not get the support you need JUST by being more severe or more visible. Please listen to visibly disabled people when we tell you it isn't better on our side
#m/cc#mine#I tried extremely hard to word this nicely because I KNOW people don't mean bad and often even know there are unique challenges#and believe me I know the challenges of invisible disability too!!#I have invisible disabilities!#but as someone who has also been at least visibly 'off' since they were 10 I am SO SICK of invisible disabilities being hailed as like#a unique extra oppression that us lucky visibly disabled people don't have to deal with#there are challenges to invisible disabilities that visibly disabled people DON'T have to deal with!#but you need to understand that *the reverse is also true*#there are MASSIVE benefits to being able to lie about your disability for example#or not dealing with the overt ableism that comes with your disability being obvious to everyone#*I do not have the option to pretend I'm not disabled.* that is never an option I have#I walk weirdly. I use a mobility aid now. my speech and face are 'off.' I lean to one side#for a long time I wore sunglasses 24/7 and often didn't make sense. I sometimes can't speak or won't react to others#for the most part people will always know that at the very least something is wrong with me#and more obviously I have people telling me they'll pray for me; telling me I can't do things I'm already in the process of doing;#wanting to shake my hand to tell me I'm an inspiration for not killing myself; giving me dirty looks for existing in public#and yes. I'm aware that this is very much an in-community issue. I know the average abled person doesn't know invisible disabilities exist#that's why there's so much awareness happening for it#but as a visibly disabled person I get SO TIRED of constantly hearing 'I wish my disability was visible :'('#it's just 'I wish I had your disability!' but from other disabled people

On autonomy, and what it means to be Obliged to Help.
Bonus:
#a homestuck walks into an antechamber and asks#hey is anybody going to make this dynamic wholly deterministic and thus dubiously consensual by its very nature#ANYWAY bigger ramble below. scroll down like usual#isat spoilers#isat#isat fanart#isat siffrin#isat loop#sifloop#THATS RIGHT WE'RE STILL SHIP TAGGING IT BABYYYY#in stars and time#in stars and time fanart#lucabyteart#RAMBLE START: anyway i think loop is wrong here. they have it backwards. as-- in my opinion--#the main reason they could be called back into existence postcanon is because *their* wish for help is still not complete#they still need help. siffrin still needs help. neither of them will ever stop needing help.#they will thus uphold the wish until the end of siffrin's natural lifespan.#that said. what does it mean that loop can be so wholly forced to abide by siffrin's wants?#(assuming the dagger cutscene posession is them being forced to uphold the 'help siffrin' wish via harsh universe logic)#[as opposed to something capricious and cruel the change god did. which feels out of character for the change god to me?]#much like how the island wish and duplicate objects are neutered by simply sliding off people's brains...#is loop subtly ushered toward their wish? obviously it's not a full override (see: the bossfight). but is there any interference?#and if so. so what? does it matter? if they don't notice? is it even real if they don't notice?#and even if they do notice. the universe leads we follow. how much do either of them value their free will in a belief system like that?#the whole game is dedicated to siffrin habitually NOT excersizing his free will. doing things the same Every Time.#Loop ESPECIALLY does this. predetermined predetermined predetermined even in the FACE OF CHANGE. REFUSING. ANY CHOICE.#Maybe they'd even be comforted by having a universe-ordained purpose even if it is subservient. even if its to Him.#(though. i can't see siffrin enjoying the idea that someone is subservient TO them... then all their suffering is his fault...)#loop got into this mess via WANTING too much. no more free will. can't be trusted with it. take it away from them.#but yeah. gets my greasy detective pony hands all over this. and everyone please do remember i like to make characters Outright Wrong A Lot
