Got a mean comment on my Agatha All Along post about lesbians and used the opportunity to play out my fantasy that I could help someone out of an angry online conservative downward spiral the way I couldn't manage with my own parents

Kingdom Hearts Dream Drop Distance - Braig / Xigbar

[undead-moth]

I know I've been on about this for a while now and I'm being a hater but you're telling me SydCarmy was "always meant to be platonic" even though there are two seasons of writing making use of tried-and-true explicitly romantic tropes, themes and writing signals, and SydLuca is going to be romantic because...he was nice to her on screen for a few minutes?

I don't even care if people ship SydLuca, or if they just prefer it, but you can't honestly tell me that you believe Carmy was always meant to be a friend but Luca is an obvious love interest.

Just because Syd and Carmy haven't kissed or confessed their love to each other doesn't mean that isn't very obviously the direction this show is going. The Bear has already shown you who is endgame. It has shown you every episode of the show so far.

Honestly I really don't think The Bear fanbase understands this show or cares about these characters or the story being told here, which is unfortunate because this show is shockingly well-written in comparison to most shows right now, and we should be so grateful for it but all we're doing is complaining that the writers led us on by not making a ship canon fast enough. It's just. Sad.

If Noa could break out into a cold sweat, she would have, looking over the blank template Nythanel had provided to her. They were each others' soulmates, the greatest of friends, but they weren't each others' lovers. That role would have to be filled by someone else, but who? Noa didn't think her standards were so ridiculously unachievable... but considering her extremely lacking record, perhaps they were. Her pen scribbled on the card stock as she thought about her answers. Nyth was going to distribute it amongst the local populace - a meme? A bingo game? - and they would see which fish would take the bite. If no one bit, that would be fine. It's not such a large collection of Kindred in the area, but it was fun to cast the line... she guessed. ~

Hee hee feel free to kind of RP your responses if you wanted to join me! This is all in good fun! Using the template remade by pocketmemes, but original template is by d3vilbabi3 on Twitter! (Warning, VERY NSFW Twitter)

there's a specific emotion that the theme for the tadc pilot's end sequence made me feel that nothing else will even come CLOSE to invoking in me

kazui being absolutely whipped for shidou but being terrified of acting on his feelings after what happened with hinako vs shidou carrying the grief of a thousand suns and using his physical attraction to kazui as a distraction only to fall for real... agh

fun rpf stuff aside (though I'm totally fine with whatever people believe as long as no one bothers actors in real life), does it seem to you like Jacob and Sam have an unusual friendship? Or am I, as a woman, just not well-versed in guy friendships? But it seems like everyone around them agrees that they have an unusual friendship too? Thinking of Eric talking about them every chance he gets lol, and Rolin saying that he wrote a scene into the script specifically for the two of them that came out of their bond. They just seem to genuinely have so much affection for each other and they express it openly, and they talk about how much time they spend talking, and that all seems so beautifully sincere and the opposite of trying to be macho or whatever. I love it.

Haha, I love it too! It does seem like they've connected on a pretty deep level.

I don't know, I don't know either of them of course, but I think there's probably a lot of factors at play. I think true creative partnerships can often be pretty intense and binding, and that does seem to be the way they've both approached their work on the show and how they've felt about building Louis and Lestat as both individual characters, and as the show's big, beating, bloody heart. It also seems to have influenced how they choose to be leads on set.

Crews will usually say that a culture on set starts from the top of the callsheet, which I imagine would be Jacob at 1, Sam at 2, and they both seem to take that seriously as well. Eric's talked about that, as you said, but Roxane actually talked about how much they look after each other and the energy they bring to set quite a bit in her interview with Autumn too, which was lovely. I've timestamped it here if you haven't seen it:

So yeah, I think how they've chosen to create together plays a role. I also think timing probably had a bit to do with it too. Jacob's joked a few times that he and Sam are trauma bonded, which makes sense given the casting process and filming s1 all happened during the COVID lockdowns, so it was a fractuous time anyway and they were probably in a cast bubble, which I imagine added to the sense of shared experience.

I also think it probably helped that they were in pretty similar places career-wise when they started on the show. They were both fairly established in their local contexts (Jacob in the UK, Sam in Australia), but less so internationally and I think that probably a) put them both on a level footing from the get-go, b) gave them both a shared sense of what this opportunity was, and c) that their professional lives have made this pretty significant change together.

Plus, y'know, they just seem to really like each other, which is a lovely thing. So yeah! I think their friendship is something special, and whether that's a result of their personalities, the context of the last few years, or something else, who knows? I'm just glad we get to watch the result of it, haha.

me and my friend of 18 years both finding out we thought we had to marry when we grow up and both thought the best option would be a soldier because he wouldn't be home much and eventually die and leave us alone forever

Try as they may but they will not be anything close to Splatocalypse's resolution with Pearl demanding the cameras were on her so that Marina could cry peacefully

Still thinking about Jaune's masculine wiles such that even Cinder - a villainess with the blackest, most wounded of hearts - is freaked out by how handsome he is.
