The subtle rancidity in this landoscar moment, Oscar's a little mad Lando got even from brazil, Lando's so smug about it...they just want to one up eachother in debt and we have misinterpreted it as marriage, these bitches are fucking nasty going back and forth between hunter and prey

GOD OKAY ANON, sorry just getting to this now, I have been Busy Busy.

I swear you must be the same anon in Amelia's inbox yesterday talking about the hunter/prey thing and SDFDSFSDDFSDFDSF.

The DYNAMICS. The way that Lando absolutely probably did it for absolution of himself (feeling bad about the team orders, and wanting to give something back to Oscar), but also thinking that he deserves thanks for it.

Oscar APPRECIATING it but also wanting it on his own fucking merit, bitter about it because he knows exactly why Lando did it. And then the fact that he has to deal with the subtle smugness from Lando post interview.

AND THEN NOW THE RACE.

It's definitely both a marriage AND fucking nasty. They're trading shit back and forth, they're an Ouroboros eating it's own tail. Lando is fighting for this tiny shred of control and Oscar is fighting for a shred of acknowledgement, and they just keep trading their debts back and forth.

They ABSOLUTELY fuck nasty about it on the regular, and they absolutely fight about it, tooth and nail. A little violent, a little sexy, definitely a little crying.

And both of them are nothing except the perfect little prey animal to each other I mean...what.

THEY'RE BOTH JUST SO FERAL ABOUT IT ALL. It's rancid, but it's also how they show each other they care....

Regardless of your gender or sexuality, reblog this and tag your most hetero male trait. Mine is either obsessing over my Altima or sitting around watching TV shows about air disasters.

full offence but I do NOT watch movies so I can "turn my brain off" I take this shit so seriously

[spyglassrealms]

had a fucking hilarious dream that tumblr replaced the "block" function with the far funnier "glock" function, which did the exact same thing except whenever anyone blocked you a random bullet hole, like a png of a bullet hole, would appear on your blog. discourse blogs were unreadable bc you'd go to the page and the sheer amount of bullet hole pngs stacked over the blogs obscured everything. I woke myself up laughing

Part of the reason that Republicans are so desperately acting like they will never lose again is because they are deeply terrified that this is their last real chance to win. The big orange dipshit came in and gutted the party of everyone who wasn't a loyalist, which left it full of nasty little gremlins who have gaping voids where charisma and human decency is supposed to go.

They still hold a lot of power, but if we stop them this year the next presidential election may not be the Most Important One Of Your Life™, that's not a guarantee or anything, but if they don't win here and now their future looks grim, this dipshit is the only guy they have left and he's extremely diminished and has his brains leaking out of his ears at this point. We can beat him into the ground.

So that's what we're gonna fucking do. We're gonna break these fucking fash. They will crash upon us and we're gonna break their fucking necks. When they come for us they will lose because they're fucking losers and we have each other's backs which is something they fundamentally are incapable of comprehending.

Mel's protection should have saved Viktor too, and she's trying to figure out why it didn't

(Editing to add: see this post for details on the Mel's armor/shield theory)

S2 ep1 shows a circle of protected stone where Mel and Jayce were during the explosion. My theory is that Mel's magic armor activated and saved them both. It seems like it casts a sphere of protection around wherever Mel is.

The center of this circle is not Mel's seat - it's Jayce's. She ran to Jayce to save him.

No other Councilors were in range of Mel's protection, so they all got hurt or killed.

But Viktor was, in Jayce's words, "right next to" him. He was easily within Mel's circle of protection.

1) Viktor tried to run and mistakenly left the circle of protection. But are we meant to believe that Viktor, close to dying already and using a crutch, would have outrun Mel?

2) Viktor's augmented body clashes with Mel's

Why does Mel try to touch Viktor in episode 1? It seems like a throwaway moment, but not even Jayce touches him in this scene. So why Mel?

She's curious. And possibly, feeling responsible. She's wondering why her protection didn't work.

Is this Hexcore brand of the Arcane trying to reach out to Mel? Or trying to defend itself from her?

Mel was trying to protect both Jayce and Viktor, which is reflected in how she holds Jayce as well as Viktor's cane when she promises to protect Hextech:

But if, for example, Mel's magic is Solari in origin, and Viktor's is from the Void - or the Arcane equivalent of similar opposing forces - then it's possible that their magic rejects or hurts one another. So Mel's circle of protection either rejected Viktor, or was what hurt Viktor, and not the explosion.

I passed oyt and was blessed with a vision...

You gotta hand it to Fig. All of the Bad Kids were given foils this season and they got to decide how much they wanted to engage with that part of the plot. Gorgug only interacted with Mary Ann in passing despite them both being on the Owlbears. Fabian noped out of chatting up Ivy once she crossed a line with Mazey. Riz was so busy that he truly had no time to engage with Kipperlilly even though she's obsessed with him. Kristen interacted a bit with Buddy but spent way more time verbally sparring with Kipperlilly. And Adaine was somewhat interested in Oisin but never overtly acted on it.

But Fig?

She's in Ruben's WALLS. She's in his DREAMS. She's faking her alter emo's death. She's got the Fantasy FBI after her. She's SO SO tiny. No one is doing it like Fig's doing it.
