RESIDENT EVIL 4 (2023)

Why do you reject serenity? When you need only to accept the sacred gift? like... she did

[hikaaa-bi]

okay but i also have to point out that sam wasn't laughing at the fact that mr bonzo was a monster, it was the idea of mr bonzo being one of the EXTERNALS that was absolutely ridiculous to him.

and in all fairness, i get it. the idea that a children's mascot is a monster is absurd, but what's more absurd is the fact that a children's mascot works for the UK government.

When did you start listening to Malevolent?!?! I literally finished it last week lol

Technically I started in 2022. I listened to the first 12 episodes then had a lot of life stuff happen so I dropped it. I'd been thinking about coming back to it. And recently since I finished my TMA relisten (sorta) I decided to try Malevolent again. Funny enough I just re-finished episode 12 today.

My thoughts on it are... mixed. I can't say I'm totally in love with the formula, and the DnD-ish elements take away from the story for me since it makes Arthur's (and John's?) actions really all over the place. And I would really like a broader cast, or at least something to make me feel more grounded in the world. The narrative exclusively following Jarthur feels pretty isolated.

But I'm not not enjoying it so! We'll see. Maybe it'll grab me more as it goes on.

Any headcanons about the au where Hazel meets the di Angelos in Alaska? (as an aside you mentioned in the notes of that fic Nico seeing a moose for the first time and his reaction would be HILARIOUS. Wait until he sees a Hyperborean.)

I really should stop creating new WIPs until I've gone back to every fic I posted where I said "I might write another chapter!" bc I do want to write more for them, but then I forget, or life gets in the way.. I still want Nico's reaction to an actual moose tho, like poor kid, moose (idk the plural for them, google says there's no plural, same word) are enormous! He'd probably want to keep one as a pet

A hyperborean or one of those griffins from SoN!

So, reading the Homura post, it seems the Sleuth is able to see through her time-pauses, and I mean... we keep having new people catch Kira, so like... are they in a time loop powered by some time god? Does this blog have time shenanigan lore?!?!?

((Officially, there's a sort of loose time loop, however, no one's actually aware of it, and only details which I think would be funny to acknowledge make it through. This has no real bearing on the actual case or the writing. Consider it more of a "multiple timelines" situation, with some crossover. So either of those is what's happening.

Unofficially, it is very interesting they can "see", yes. This statement is now up to audience interpretation.))

The violent urge to declutter and deep clean vs. the respect you have for your roomate and their things.

i'm at school (early as usual) and i saw a swivel chair just sitting on the hallway... i've been having fun playing with it - spinning around, riding it down the hall - but more folks are starting to come in and now i have to stop and look normal whenever they pass by :( autism curse

[becauseimanicequeen]

Wait, it's Wednesday today?! (Where the fuck did my Tuesday go?)

That means it's We Are day

But, also, most importantly, the first The Rebound day of the week!

Can't wait to watch them both in a couple of hours after running some errands.

I'm really glad for all the love you've put into w359 fanworks. every time I see you post about it, my heart glows a little.

I'd originally felt that way while listening to the show, and your interpretation & vision feels so tightly knit to the source material. you even go farther in your explicit discussions about hera, her autonomy, her emotional depth, her treatment by other characters, and her arc as a trans allegory

totally understand why you might feel embarrassed, but I wanted you to know: thank you 💜

oh, that's so sweet of you to say!! i'm honored you think so.

i genuinely think there's a case to be made that eiffel/hera is as canon as the parameters for romance in wolf 359 allow it to be. like: gabriel urbina's policy was always "never confirm or deny 'on-screen' romance unless absolutely necessary" and from the AMAs we know they at least discussed it with regard to eiffel and hera, though we'll never know how that conversation went. it's not really a secret that sarah shachat and zach valenti, at least, viewed it that way. i still think about zach saying (paraphrased) that he thinks his non-answer is an answer, because if he didn't ship them, he could just say so.

and that's kind of how i feel about eiffel/hera within canon. like. anybody at all familiar with shows the wolf 359 writers like (especially things like btvs and farscape) can tell you there are plenty of scenes that mirror and meta-textually reference scenes from other shows. both gabriel urbina and sarah shachat were huge fans of the new doctor who, and whatever you believe the intent was, i find it hard to believe they didn't at least know they were evoking "if it's my last chance to say it, rose tyler, i-" with "and hera. hera, i-" it's what isn't said, the fact it has to be left unsaid, that speaks the loudest.

and anyway, talking about hera and romance / sexuality is especially interesting to me because it's not a given for her. it's not assumed to be something she should want or can have, and the way that intersects with her canon disability and with readings of her as a trans woman re: autonomy and desirability is very interesting (and very personal) to me, especially in the broader context of stories about AI women. but that's a topic for another post.

it's not a new observation by any means, but i think there can be a tendency to treat romance as separate from character analysis, and that's always sat poorly with me. romance isn't unique in either a good or a bad way, it's just... one type of relationship people can have. i think a lot about the unique approach wolf 359 has to romance because, while i understand why a lot of people would find the lack of romantic subplots refreshing, the characters aren't written to be intentionally disinterested in sex or romance (in some cases, textually... the opposite, even), so much as the writing carefully skirts around it. and... i don't know! there's something fascinating there.

obviously, i think you can recognize what's important about eiffel and hera's relationship (that it's the most equal one hera has ever had, that he has no real hierarchy over her or expectations for her other than companionship, how they share values and mutually support each other, etc.) without needing that to be romantic. and i think you can even acknowledge there's some degree of romantic intent without being invested like i am or "shipping" them. but i do think there's some intent there, and i think the the themes of the show can be expanded in some interesting ways to explore that beyond the intentional ambiguity of it. if you want to.

i would also never deny having an emotional bias here!! complete objectivity is never possible because we always bring parts of ourselves to our interpretations of art, and that's only amplified by how close to my heart wolf 359 is as a story. but i do really want to communicate, to the best of my ability, how much love i have for the show and how much thought i put into it. and i definitely don't mind being known for my love of eiffel/hera; they're my favorite characters from anything ever, both individually and together. but i do get kinda embarrassed when i talk about them too much, because it's not that i don't have plenty of thoughts about every other character and aspect of the show, it's just... that they are close to my heart in a particular way. anyway. i really appreciate it, thank you!!

i've previously gone insane over NFC stuff and 2D barcodes (amiibo tech and QR code tech, basically) so now i have a plethora of leftover knowledge and also a few nfc tags i never got around to giving a purpose.

the desire to join some discords and be social and contribute and meet new people vs the reality of finding discords + then having to contribute and be social in order to talk to new people...... troublesome 😔
