"we'll get him" is that a musk ref. rtd, musk is not a genius lol
"but what for" asking the tough questions
(also regeneration as a disguiseâŠ. what a good idea)
JUST DONT GO CHANGING YOURS OOK
"cant we just pipe in a bit of applause " the metaâŠâŠ..
mel pulling a 73!yards ruby
"we have another mystery woman" "ruby sundayyyyyyyyyyy" "you could've warned me" wtf i love tem. i love this. absolute bonkers vibes for a finale. (the horrors will start at any second)
ruby/rose flirtingâŠâŠ.. ?? :eyes emoji:

a phoenix is just a bird until it burns⊠awesome. what the fuck does that mean

"my memory of this keeps changing"
rip chipzode probably
T.T rubes

15 frustrated because he finally has to come back from buying the cigarattes/ bread
"FINISHED? STOP GRIZZLING AND FIX IT". mel!!!!!!!!!!!!! thats
mel!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i love you mel!!!!!!!!!!!!
rtd said im gonna write a season that is SO self referential. thank u

"i'd remember a handsome chap like you" um. let's no go there!!! thanks
i told u doc u absolute anxious nerd. there's millions of susans!!! (not convinced this isnt anything yet)
the music is doing things
"being an ambulance?" mel u have always been in doccy who. catch up!!!
reverse the polarity of the VHS
(ALSO very 00's/90's "therre's something hiding in the music if u play it backwards Zeitgeist ("Blink"'s dvd easter egg realness))
donna this is all ebcause you had to go and spill that damn coffee. chodizee's blood is on YOUR hands
leave the tardis alone⊠"then they get wise, and they try to destroy it"
"thank you, and i love you, and good bye" aaaaaaaaa
our tecnology spreads lies and fraud!!! im gonna count that as aBINGO. taking my prize in cash beebs. thank!!!
"you do not question, you move" ummmmm
master? rogue? valeyyard? rassilon? omega? suttek? omega??? rani?? ???
harriet arbingers. rip.
A DREAM OF A WORLD WITH ORANGE SKIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
lol love this. going over the theories
THE MARA MENTION!!! TEGAN NATIO N WE R I S E
suketh!!!!!! well there it is lol (damn wish i had rewatch Pyramids so i could be more excited about this dklfjsdklfjdskldfs) (also def saw ppl on reddit calling that "second anagram" ou t sdklfjsd)
"did you think i was family, doctor?" rude.
CONCLUSIONS!!!
tbh this had a looooot of good character moments but i think it was mostly a "putting the chessboard pieces in place" episode. still tho damn, those characters moments. highlighting carla/ruby giving me emotions, sutekh/doctor taunting, doctor/kate antagonism MY BELOVED, ruby/rose (best ship name?????), doctor/mel!!!!!!!!!!!!!! being everything!!!!, doctor finally dealing with the susan of it all!!!! (ilu for this rtd). doctor/ruby being super cute and queer before experiencing THE HORRORS, idk how i feel about the reveal since tbh i didnt care much for that serial sdlfkjsdfds but hey. anyway excited for next week. tv show reveal def coming for the second-act-reversal !!!!!/is a hopeless case ALSO enjoyed the filming of this as well (snow! vhs effect!!!) and this is def the most interesting UNIT has ever been lol

Rewatching Good Omens season 2 liveblog
Episode 3 âThe Clueâ post 3
Previous post link (post 2)
What did they do here exactly� Crowley froze him somehow and made him suggestible? He can do that? And Azirphale your morally grey is showing again you told Crowley to do that
âMurdaRrsâ
âMore mUrdARrsâ
The only way they couldâve made me like Crowley more was by giving him a Scottish accent and they done exactly that. I need someone to make audio clips of all the amazingly accented words in this flash back.
This outfit was also FINE. Costume department really goes bonkers with Crowley and is like âmeh give him a coatâ to Aziraphale
Stop. His moral panic when he finds out the jar is a tumour from a dead child.
Azirphale is so disturbed by these things which is so hard to watch. But heâs never really seen them, he doesnât know theyâre happening. Crowley is more lighthearted and able to stay upbeat because heâs been so deep in this shit for a long time heâs able to detach. But that just supports my theory that heâs been in the trenches doing âgoodâ things for a while now.
But thatâs also why Crowley isnât harsh to Aziraphale, he knows heâs not mean spirited heâs just ignorant. And he does make adjustments in his ethics when press with facts but itâs very warped because he cannot see the grey.
*Everyone panicking running away to hide from the guards and Crowley is just strolling along with his lamp like some graveyard ghoul*
Unbothered not-lad. We stan.
*Crowley drinks literal poison*
Crowley: đ -đč-đŽó §ó ąó łó Łó Žó ż-đŒ-đ€đ»
This scene has given me two new verbal stims:
âYou have sinned VERY BIGLY!â
And
âAnd not pretendy-goodâŠPROPERLY good!â
In seriousness though he quite literally saves Elspeths life, and he probably changes the trajectory of her entire family line. AND he took the fall for it after he stopped Aziraphale saving Wee Morag. Again, Crowley sticking his neck out to do what he thinks is right. But he also stops Aziraphale doing anything that might cause him problems in heaven.
The next time they see each other is when Crowley is asking for holy water⊠so who knows what happened to him after this.
*growls when complimented*
Same.
Also casual tOuChINGGGG
Azirphale simp mode activated, you arnt suppose to look at âevilâ demons like that AziraphaleâŠ
I love how they both just stared at the phone for ages like âno one calls the bookshopâ
Then OOP it must be hubby calling gotta drop everything including his precious books⊠this one was so much funnier cause they just fucking fall all over the place and Jim has 0 reaction
âGood job.â
âOhhhâŠyou really think so?â
The face of a demon realising his Angels love language is words of affirmation
Next post (post 4) link

for the smosh asks, 10-17 :)
the way this has been sitting in my inbox for half a year i am SO fucking sorry anon LMAO. thanks for humoring me with that ask game i reblogged months ago đ idk if you even care anymore BUT heres a response! better late than never i guess oops
10. Fave smosh song?
dixon cider is up there unfortunately. also girls are gross. and any of the lil jingles tommy made throughout the years :3
11. What's something you want to see come back?
i need another smosh seasonal games EXPEDITIOUSLY... plus as an Older fan a part of me is always gonna want the ex cast to appear again in some capacity, mainly ogsog đ€§
12. Do you own any Smosh merch?
yes i have a baseball tee with the "questionable quality humor" design on it which i got mid 2010s (i love the design but i unfortunately got it in a too small size so it's kinda dysphoria inducing đ). and they had a deal at the time i ordered it where they sent an extra random piece of merch along with the order for free so i also have a kinda silly looking tshirt based on the assassin's creed 4 song that has text that says "cause i'm a pirate" đ cannot wear that one in public
13. Do you ship anything/love any friendship pairs?
why yes i do 8) but i already kinda go over that in my pinned post so i donât feel like typing it all out again lol. as of late though my brain has been Consumed with spourtney, spommy, and shaynse among the expected others. and more tbh
14. What is your favorite 'era' of Smosh?
truthfully it is the current era but also including early 2023. i think when letâs do this was airing it was the most consistently i was having fun with smosh uploads ever. i see the current era as basically the early 2023 vibe but part 2, though anthony returning was certainly a very high point despite ldt ending đ€§ tho im NOT gonna lie 2016-2018 smosh, particularly for the pit uploads and general cast dynamics, comes in 2nd for me. bc im a nostalgic bitch
15. What castmember do you think you are most like?
HONESTLY. IDK⊠maybe courtney due to the Queerness, nonbinarism, humor style, fashion style (kinda, im not as fem as them), and history of parasocial tendencies and ability to get Extreme joy out of witnessing people being cute and affectionate with each other. our joint ex-larry shipper slay⊠but also tommy for the Anxiety and queerness and humor and love for noise music <3 (can u tell theyre my favs)
something i find FASCINATING though is that i VISCERALLY relate to shaynes specific social anxiety about Emails and avoiding them in a cycle bc u get scared u missed something important so u just avoid them more đ”âđ« when i first heard him say that i went BONKERS bc what other fucking celebrity who deliberately puts themselves in the public eye would be that dysfunctional about that đ idk i just felt seen⊠(granted my avoidance issues are Much worse than that and affect way more facets of my life haha but. yeah)
16. Have you met any friends through Smosh?
no⊠đ« ive always been a recluse esp in fandom spaces hskskskfngfkld
17. What do you want to see now that Anthony's back?
this question definitely was more fitting when this ask game was relevant months ago LOL but still i want to see anthony interacting with the cast more on pit and games. all the time even
OK DONE FINALLY. if you read all that⊠thank you đ«Ą

mwah! riverposting until the end đ„čđâŒïž
1. who is your favorite character?
this is sooooo hard. ok so for a long time when the characters (and the actors) were younger (and me too) i was always sweet on jughead but ultimately my fav character has to be everyoneâs favorite nouveau riche ronnie. i also love cheryl, like, s4 onwards, but veronica wins every time. i think itâs partially because camila mendes is just so very pretty, but most of it because her character is bonkers and her arcs are insane.. she doesnât get as much depth or development as like, say, betty - her arcs are mostly focused on her growing as a girlboss as opposed to as a person, but that just makes me sympathize with her more. insanely, also, it is because the show never lets ronnie win. she tries so hard to be a good person and 90% of the time it backslides and/or backfires and it makes me love her more every time.
5. what do you think the show couldâve handled better?
okay, like, s1-3 had a lot of tv-14 rated sex scenes which like, yeah, i get it, i remember the original audience demographic, but i REALLY got into it once they started focusing more on the storylines (s4-7). did you really expect me to be okay with the idea of cole sprouse. fucking
but on another note. their attempts to address racism (not just in s7 with the toni-and-clay-black -athena-emmett-till storylines or reggie-and-stonewall-prep) but rather like, the storyline of jughead Discovering Racism in season 2 when toni takes him to see her grandad (?) and hears about the serpents backstory. also, interestingly? veronica isâŠlatina, but is it ever mentioned where from? hiram goes to cuba in s7, but for about 6 seasons iâm not sure where she was meant to be from (i could also be forgetting). most of the serpents (ie People In Poverty) are also poc and i donât know if this was to avoid like, backlash because of racebending considering veronica and reggie of the main cast had already been racebent, thus, them trying to racebend background characters. there is also the issue of supporting cast being poc but then that supporting cast also getting less screen time and development. you cannot say that itâs definitely one caused by the other but out of, say, a consistent 6-character main cast (archie, betty, ronnie, jughead, cheryl and kevin) only one is non-white, with reggie, josie, toni and fangs all becoming regulars later.
they did try! they definitely did tryâŠbut i donât know, couldâve been done better. handled more carefully etc

hellooo i am once again in your inbox with my little rental car questions. am i getting annoying yet? i can stop lmao
for the songs: nat! quinn! alex! lloyd!! yvonne!! any of them or all of them or whatever you like!!
(also i noticed some of ur ATDAO content and am intrigued by Kai's song vibe too)
(don't feel pressured to answer all/any of this lol, its a Lot)
hello hello hello!! thank you as always for ur little rental car questions, I am often very slow at answering them but they make me go ":D" every time, so.... :D!! (also no no no, you're not getting annoying, you're fine ahaha)
so, I have already a few requests for Nat and Quinn tunes waiting in my inbox, so I'll be scattering my Nat and Quinn tunes across a couple of different asks....... or maybe I'll just bunch them all together...... yes either way, if you're keen for tunes I can tag you in those too :P BUT I will give you one for each of them here as well because I am kind and benevolent
I have no Lloyd or Yvonne tunes yet unfortunately............ but I am on the hunt for some so maybe I'll find some soon..... I have Alex tunes over here in a previous ask! and I will offer you some Kai tunes...... and then perhaps I will throw in a few Greeble tunes also?
FAIR WARNING this will be a lot of words, I am so sorry, I forgot to mention how Asking About Music would open this floodgate, this is something you have not witnessed yet but lots of my other mutuals have.... I Love To Ramble and this is a topic that I am incapable of shutting up about
under the cut because.... yeah. sorry sorry sorry
so first up is Nat, n I will offer you âWhen I Was Done Dyingâ by Dan Deacon, which is.......... not the MOST Nat tune, but is a funky little song that can go both at the very start and the very end of the playlist, though I opted to put it at the end c: itâs a song with a lot of bonkers imagery and thematically ties conveniently into both Natâs first and final appearances..... plus the line âAnd the Earth looked at me and said âWasnât that fun?â / And I replied âIâm sorry if I hurt anyoneââ hurts me in my heart and is just such a sad note to end on
next is Quinn, n I will offer you âMetaphorâ by The Crane Wives! this was the very very first Quinn song I added to the playlist, as soon as I got Quinnâs vibe pinned down I was like âoh yeah lmao this song is perfectâ. it conjures up the nice little image of someone whoâs adept at sweet-talking and truth-twisting and manipulation, perhaps because itâs all they know how to do, perhaps because itâs a defense mechanism and survival tactic...... the tone of the song is not particularly distressed though..... like..... itâs a shifty, shady song but also âDonât look too hard, âcause you wonât like the scars he left in meâ is a little oof and gives the whole thing just a sprinkle of seasoning in terms of Why Quinn Is The Way Quinn Is. plus the brief shift to âI canât trust a single thing you sayâ is a nice dash of that fear and defensiveness too :3
anyway yes, I have lots more Nat n Quinn tunes on the way in various different flavours including Nat-And-Quinn Combined Tunes and Greeble-Nat tunes
NOW FOR KAI TUNES THOUGH
oh, I could talk about ATDAO sounds forever, my ATDAO playlist is a 14-and-a-half-hour monstrosity that I have so much fun with also I do have an entire Kai playlist from back when I was making individual character playlists
anyway, hereâs some for Kai I plucked out for you!
âThe Houseâ by Air Traffic Controller! such a delightful little bop and is exactly the vibe for the Lancaster household of Kaiâs younger years c: though a lot of the specific details in the song arenât the same as specific details of Kaiâs life, the energy is perfect! Kai had a fantastic home life and such an energetic and loving family, n I mean...... things got SUPER messy post-time-loop because Kaiâs family thought Kai was dead and things completely fell apart and theyâve spent seven years trying to claw their way back to normality...... so yes this song is very good but also Ouch in comparison to Kaiâs current loneliness and complicated family situation
âSomeone Newâ by Hozier is one of my favourite Kai tunes!! lots of love to go round here, perfectly encapsulating Kaiâs boisterous personality and tendency to collect friends wherever they go (the stranger the better, yes), n the deep love they have for humanity as a whole.... they are the type of person to fall in love with strangers on the bus dfkjfsdf
âThe Record Player Songâ by Daisy the Great is an EXCELLENT Kai song but one I only trust in my own hands..... like, itâs a good character song but only âcause I have the necessary background and nuance to handle it....... I can come at it from the right angle.... but it needs a mention, yes
anyway, this one is here for.... a deep-seated terror of your own motives and the fear that youâre not a good person..... the alienation and detachment from your sense of self and the people youâre supposed to care about.... which is a great source of distress for Kai, whoâs always been deeply compassionate and caring
they spend a lot of the story dealing with extremely undiagnosed depersonalisation/derealisation disorder due to Time Loop Trauma and constantly feel as if the world around them isnât real, that theyâre not real, n feeling so disconnected from their own emotions.... plus theyâre scared shitless the only reason they try so hard to care so much about people is because deep down they donât actually care about anything at all
choice lyrics include
âI donât really love you / I just said that for a change of pace / Iâm sorry, sometimes I donât recognise my faceâ
and âI need a dictionary / Someone look me up and define me / Please remind me who Iâm supposed to be around you / So you will do what I want you toâ
and âSometimes I think all Iâm ever doing is trying to convince myself Iâm aliveâ
just.......... oh, go to therapy, kid, youâre not a terrible person youâre a good, kind, loving person whoâs been through a fuckload of trauma and needs help dealing with all this terror and guilt youâve been carrying round
technically âWander. Wonder.â by The Arcadian Wild fills the same role in the playlist, lots of terror, lots of alienation and isolation and disconnectedness, but this song IS allowed in other peopleâs hands (it is also an exceptionally good Kai song, probably the top one) (Tris also makes a tangential appearance in this song ahaha)
also it would be a crime for me not to mention "Wobblyâ by Ezra Furman for Kai of course :3
and finally............................. two Greeble tunes........ only for the Greeble on its own, I have a handful of VERY good Nat-Greeble tunes lined up for a different ask
âSPRORGNSMâ by Superorganism! just a funky little hivemind bop! and also The Bedquilt Ramblersâ cover of âThis World Is Not My Homeâ which........ sad sad human centre-of-the-Garble vibes
like, man, this guy made some TRULY atrocious choices but I do feel bad for him. he was an idiot, yes. but he deserves some rest at long long long last. everyone deserves some rest eventually
anyway thanks for........................ letting me ramble....... I apologise for the........... incredibly lengthy ramble..... please have a SPLENDID day
#yeah this is. hm#yeah no i should have warned you#someone asks me abt tunes and something snaps in my brain and then i can't stop talking#like.......... i am so sorry this is so lengthy but it's important to me that you know#this answer was Restrained Logan#ffdghfdkshskhdag#i'm mortified but i hope maybe possibly potentially you were hoping for a ramble??#if not.......................... whoops#either way thank you for the opportunity to Talk Music for a while c:#!!!!!!#a rental car takes a left down rake street and disappears#atdao#i was v excited to ramble!!!!! can you tell!!!!!#ahahahahhaa

hi criquette! did you see those new 4t2 shopfronts from beautifulnerdkitty? theyâd look super cool with your Simlish signs on them, donât you think? (ïżŁâœïżŁ)/
Hey anon! Yes, I saw them and theyâre great! It might be wonderful to have them feature those simlish shopsigns Iâve made. If somebody would like to do this, Iâd be super excited :D

Is there a tutorial or anyway to make neighborhood terrain defaults. I cant find a clear one but I really want to do one for the dirt and concrete. Just some tips would be good instead. Thanks.
Hey anon! Iâm not sure if thereâs a tutorial on terrain defaults, but I know a way to make a DR. Just take the existing terrain default replacement, look up all the texture names in the package, find those textures in the game resources and export them. Assemble exported textures into new package, and replace Maxisâ textures with yours. This method is called âreverse engineeringâ ;) Iâve used this method to create âRural Charmâ just to calm down my conscience about using someone elseâs DR as a base, lol

hi criquette :D i was wondering if you have any links or know where i can get info on how to resize sims 2 neighborhood deco? i have some buildings that would fit perfectly in my neighborhood but they are so big!
Hello anon! Oh, thereâs only one way to resize TS2 neighborhood deco: you have to export the mesh and edit it in the 3D editor of choice. And then import it back again. So basically it depends on 3D software youâre going to use.Â

Criquette, your trees have always been beautiful! I know you must have received this question before, but have you considered creating alternative versions of them? For example, they look amazing in the fall, I wish I could add them to the neighborhood even in the summer to create a more elegant contrast to the look, just like I did in my neighborhood at The Sims 3, OldSunset, it would be an amazing experience to have this contrast
Hi Erick! Yes, it would be really great thing to have, actually. I also thought about having some bare trees for the autumn, or dead trees for all seasons, just to add more character to the scene. But, with the lack of time Iâm having right now, this could take ages to make.

Hello, I absolutely love your old neighborhood decos. However, the roads don't really match your rural charm set. I was wondering if there was a cc set that you know of that edited your old nh decos to match rural charm roads? Or if you have uploaded one before and I just haven't been searching enough ^^'
Hey anon! Thank you! I donât think there are any âcharmedâ versions of my old neighborhood decos around. And Iâm afraid youâll have to wait too long for me to update them -_- Real life is going hard right now.

Hola yo instale el juego pero me aparece todo azul
Hola anon! No creo que soy una persona adecuada para resolver problemas generales con el TS2 como este. Tengo zero experiencia en este tema y lo Ășnico que te puedo aconsejar es buscarlo. Lo Ășnico que me parece raro, es que lo tienes todo azul y no roso. Y eso me hace pensar, que estas hablando no del juego mismo sino de algĂșn CC que acabas de instalar. De todos modos, con mas detalles es mas fĂĄcil conseguir alguna soluciĂłn.
Nonnie is saying that theyâve just installed the game and everything appears blue. I reply that Iâm not the right person to resolve general TS2 issues and my advise is look it up somewhere. The only thing that bothers me is that everything is blue, not purple which makes me thing that the anon is talking about CC they recently installed rather than the game itself. All in all, more details would help resolve this.

Hello Criquette! Â I hope I'm not bothering you with my question, but there is something driving me bonkers about my game that I hope you can help me with. Â Whenever I load up my game and go into "lot" mode, the area next to the roads where normally the sidewalk would be is a darker shade of green than the rest of the environment. This ONLY happens when it is night time, during the day everything matches perfectly. Any ideas what could be causing this? FYI I use your terrain and road replacement
Hi anon! I can feel your pain here. Yes, that drives me crazy too, but thereâs not much we can do about it, unfortunately. I mean, probably it is possible to edit that particular part of lighting system TS2 has, but.. Imagine trying to replace a book with other book at the bottom of a huge pile of books trying to prevent the pile from falling ^^

Hi. I'm hoping you'd know the answer to this. Voleste shared a beautiful hood a few years ago, but did not include the sc4 file. Do you know how I would be able to edit the hood in SimsCity4 to add a few roads?
Hello, anon! I donât think thatâs possible. Thereâs no conventional way to export a TS2 terrain back into SC4 map. Thereâs one thing you can do though. You can try to recreate the road layout in Simcity4, keeping in mind that SC4 tile is 2x2 neighborhood TS2 tiles and the map is mirrored. Make it as accurate as possible in terms of planning, but ignoring the height and relief factor. Then, make the edits you want to make and create a neighborhood with that new SC4 map. Then you have to swap only roads with the neighborhood you wanted to edit in the first place. That will make your roads levitate or underground depending what relieve the target neighborhood has. To fix that, you have to use the terraforming cheat and move terrain vertices along the roads up and down again to make the road stick back to the surface of the earth. Not a conventional way too, but you donât have to study coding and programming to create a stand alone SC2 terrain editor with a âexport to SC4 mapâ option ^___^

Nonnie is saying that theyâre converting houses in the hood into apartments using invisible fence to keep backyard boundaries safe. But thereâs a house in the neighborhood where the backyard is shared by two apartments. The question is: is there a way to edit a fence in SimPE so that sims would cross it, but the game would still think itâs not a single room but rather two separate rooms. I reply that there is an option that makes a fence possible/impossible to walk over, but Iâm pretty sure that this very option is also responsible for the room type and how the game sees it. The easiest way to check this theory would be to divide the room by wood or brick flowerbed fence, but I doubt itâd work. I also suggest Numenorâs custom walls, probably thereâs something there that would fit the situation.

What do you think the non-cannon ships would be like as parents? (Ex: Franletta)
Franletta would be the most loving and sweet parents, though probably very chaotic. Their child is gonna be bilingual from the start and probably switch from italian and spanish all the time. I don't know how many kids they have - maybe just one, or two. What I know is that they are very loving, though sometimes they can bicker about little things, like what their children are gonna eat for dinner or who is gonna sing them to sleep.
If we take other non-canon ships, let's start with Dieleon >:)
Dieleon as parents... not sure how it would play out. I think Leon would be the cool dad, goofing around and teaching them how to play guitar. Diego would probably make up for the absent father he had growing up by being there for the kids as much as possible. So he would always be the one taking care of them when they're sick and applauding the loudest when they perform. Sometimes he wants to be in control too much, which makes Leon have to talk to him and let him have the kids, too. It's a shared responsibility, after all! In the end, they're good dads.
Okay so now for the Cami/Naty/Ludmi ships. Them three together as parents would be ABSOLUTE BONKERS and I can't even describe the chaos that would create. But for now, let's pair them up 2 and 2 and see how their dynamic as parents would be.
Cadmila would be bickering all the time, yet somehow always get along in the end. Ludmila would buy a bunch of expensive clothes and toys and Camila was like "wE CAN'T AFFORD ALL THAT" and Ludmila was like "YES WE CAN". Camila, who is used to babysitting her cousins and probably younger siblings, is better with taking care of the child's needs. Though, she can be controlling and tries to make schedules, but Ludmila is like "Cami, children should not have schedules in their own house" and that's a whole thing. In the end, they sort things out. Ludmila learns to have more patience with the kids, while Camila learns to not be so controlling.
Luty would probably be a lot of Ludmila telling Naty to do everything, causing Naty to be like "No, I can't do everything, you have to do things too". Here, Ludmila would be the stricter parent while Naty would be the more calm but nervous parent. Naty would probably worry about the kids a lot and Ludmila would be like "calm down they will be fine they just fell on the playground everyone has done that". Ludmila is afraid that she will end up like her own mother, so every time she pushes her kid to do something, she feels incredibly bad about it. Naty tells her it's okay, kids need a little push every now and then, but also, they should listen to what the kid wants themselves.
Natila would be the most chill of them all. Think about their unexpected friendship in season 3. It would be that. They would go around like "WE HAVE SUCH A CONNECTION WE AGREE ON EVERYTHING" and then they sort of get scared when they don't agree on something. But with children, they are so good, so patient and almost always seems to know how to handle things. Camila and Naty both have experience with children from before so they know what they are doing. They are almost worried they are too good, because everything seems to be so easy??? They literally once tries to encourage their kid to cause more chaos, but the kid doesn't feel like it. It isn't until one time where they finally lash out on something they kid have done - it could be something small - and they are like. Amazed over it. But they are wonderful parents and they are literally a happy rainbow family, most of the time.

Heya!! Out of curiousity, who is your favourite pro-hero?
Ok, ok, so this is probably gonna sound cheesy af and also kinda bonkers cause we donât even know that much about him⊠but!! If I had to choose a favorite Bnha pro hero, it would have to be Crimson Riot!
I remember watching Kirishimaâs season four episode, where he and Fatgum fought Rappa and his backstory was revealed and I actually teared up when I heard Crimson Riotâs words and what he said in that interview (I probably also cried cause Kirishima cried, like ahhh, my boyyy TwT). But his words really resonated with me! About how he is afraid but wants to live life without regret! Idk, for a moment there, I forgot that this was an anime and was like: holy shit, these words mean so much to me actually! And I think about them a lot ever since! So yeah, Crimson Riot is actually pretty cool (his design too) and I love how he was able to inspire Kirishima with his words and I think itâs so cool to see how important he is to Kirishima and how far the boyâs come already. Idk, Crimson Riot is just so fucking awesome actually! And I felt like his words were so real too, idk.
Anyways ~~ Other than that, I love Aizawa of course! Heâs awesome and his fighting style is amazing!! Heâs such a dad too, hehe. I also really like Kamui Woods and Thirteen!!
Thank you for the awesome ask! :D :3 Who is your favorite pro hero?
#ahhhh#idk guys crimson riot just said all that and i was like: whoaaaa#also#i feel like he means so much to kirishima and after seeing his backstory its so clear that he doesnt âjustâ admire him but that his words#and he as a person really meant something to him#idk i feel like its different from bakugou and midoriya admiring all might or iida his big brother#idk we could really feel what those words meant for kirishima and how they helped him keep going how#it just made me so emotional and felt so real!#i feel like we havent seen something like that anywhere else really#so yeah crimson riot needs more attention!! i love him i love how significant? he is even tho he didnt appear that much#like hell yeah for kirishima admiring him!!#nghhh i cant put it into words properly ahhh#idk i hesitate a lot and let things pass me by and end up regretting stuff so the motto live life without regret inspires me to be bolder#and just do stuff sometimes as to not regret not doing anything later#im not a master yet but its comforting that a pro hero admits to being afraid abd talks about how he overcame that#cause there are certain things that motivate you and like being afraid something even worse could happen to others can help overcome your#own fear? so being afraid isnt all that bad? its pretty normal and you can even use it to make yourself move#idk what this is anymore geez i rambled again#ask way#danny talks#bnha#crimson riot#pro heroes#eijirou kirishima#thank you for the interesting ask!! ahh i love u i swear youre so good!! <3#talk to you soon cause im not as busy anymore!#kirishima geeking out for a sec about crimson riot in the ova was everything!!#ask away

J/H 4-09: Donnaâs Story
Season 4's been a tougher nut to crack for this project than the back half of Season 3 was; a lot goes on in this season, Hyde's in the background for most of it, Jackie and Kelso have their issues, and finding openings to throw in some Zen without taking away from other characters' development hasn't been easy. This was one of the few easy spots to pick, but rewriting it in a way that didn't shortchange Fez and Kelso, or go way over the length limit for a 22-minute episode, was tough. For all it took to pull off, I hope you enjoy it.
(Following production order, we assume that episodes 4-07 and 4-08, "Uncomfortable Ball Stuff" and "The Forgotten Son," remain the same in this timeline.)
(And, housekeeping note: this has been my primary writing outlet for over a month now, and I'm pretty much finished with everything through Season 5. So I've decided to change the release schedule to every Monday and Thursday.)

We open on a unique title card: ïżœïżœYe Olde â70s Show,â printed across a book. It opens, and we cut to:  EXT. MOORS â NIGHT  A bleak English moor, a long time ago. In the midst of the fog and the rocks stand ERIC and DONNA in a passionate embrace, looking out over the moor. Only not Eric and Donna; Eric has the outfit and mutton chops of a Byronic hero, while Donna is in the garb of a scullery maid. These are DEREK and WANDA.  DEREK: Oh, Wanda.  WANDA: Oh, Derek.  DEREK: Oh, Wanda.  WANDA: Yes, Derek?  DEREK: Youâre not just my next-door neighbor. Youâre also the love of my life.  WANDA: Derek, I, too, have strong feelings of love for you. But I have to give back this promise ball and chain.  She breaks their embrace and hands Derek a shackle, chain, and iron ball.  WANDA (contâd): I must leave Point Upon the Place and explore the world with my trusty cat named Sir Bonkers.  She begins to walk away, but Derek pulls her back into his arms.  DEREK: No. Iâll never let you go.  Wanda pulls away as lightning flashes and thunder crashes.  WANDA: You canât make me stay.  She moves to slap him, but Derek catches her wrist.  DEREK: Oh, no? Well, what if I told you that Iâve run over the cat named Sir Bonkers and the cat names Sir Bonkers is no more? Now submit and be my wife!  WANDA: Derek, once you were a kind, peaceful man. But love has made you wicked.  DEREK: Oh, I am wicked. And until you agree to be my wife, I will scour the earth in search of cats named Sir Bonkers, and I will kill them all, or at very least, spray them with water, which everyone knows they hate.  He being to laugh, lowly at first but building to a mad crescendo as we crane back.  CUT TO:  EXT. SCHOOL PARKING LOT - DAY  School has just let out. The real Eric and FEZ lean against the hood of the Vista Cruiser, reading the school newspaper. Eric, for one, is greatly offended.  ERIC: I canât believe Donna would publish this in the school paper.  FEZ: I know. This could be in Readerâs Digest. Itâs that good.  ERIC: Oh, this is the worst short story by an ex-girlfriend in the school newspaper ever.  He folds the paper up and pouts.
MAIN CREDITS Â BUMPER Â EXT. SCHOOL PARKING LOT - DAY Â Moments later. Eric and Fez are still on the hood of the Vista Cruiser as HYDE comes out from school and makes a beeline for them. Â HYDE: (to Eric) Well, if it isnât Playboy reading, panty-loving, cat-killing Derek. Â ERIC: I know. How could Donna write this? Â FEZ: (to Eric) Why are you upset? Itâs this Derek guy who really gets the shaft. Â ERIC: Fez, I am Derek. Â FEZ: Everything always has to be about you. Â HYDE: Fez, man, think about it. Eric killed Donnaâs cat. Derek killed Wandaâs cat. Donna found panties in Ericâs Vista Cruiser. Wanda found a chastity belt in Derekâs Vista Carriage. Â DONNA comes out from the school, joins them by the Vista Cruiser. Eric stands up straight to meet her. Â ERIC: Oh, well, if it isnât the wielder of the poison pen. Â DONNA: Didnât you like my story? Â ERIC: No. No, I didnât. Thatâs why I said âpoison pen,â not... âmarshmallow pen.â Â DONNA: (laughing) What? Â ERIC: This story is about us. Â DONNA: No, itâs not. Â ERIC: You took stuff from our life and put them in your story. Like the time you found those Playboys under my bed. Â Donna considers this, and we cut back to: Â EXT. MOOR â NIGHT Â DONNAâS STORY. Derek, boasting a massive drinking tankard, tosses his grog over his shoulder. We hear a cat shriek, and Derek grins. Â DEREK: (chuckling) Begone, Sir Bonkers. Â Wanda enters, a roll of parchment clutched in her fist. Â WANDA: Derek, look what I found under your bed. Lewd renderings of naked serving wenches. Did you commission these? Â DEREK: So what if I did? I have needs, woman. Now, ready thyself. On this night, we fornicate. Â CUT TO: Â EXT. SCHOOL PARKING LOT â DAY Â Donna gives Eric a conceding nod. Â DONNA: Okay, well, maybe there are some similarities. But thatâs what writers do. I mean, we take stuff from our lives. Â ERIC: Yeah, but you made me mean all the time and thatâs mean. Â DONNA: Okay, maybe I exaggerate some stuff. âCause, you know, Iâm writing this for stupid high school girls. Â The school doors open, and out flies JACKIE, a copy of the school newspaper in hand. Â JACKIE: (to Donna) Oh, my God! Great story! Â Donna grins, indicates Jackie to an unconvinced Eric. Â BUMPER Â MUSIC NOTE: âI Gotchaâ by Joe Tex. Â INT. HUB â DAY Â One drive later to a modest afternoon at the Hub. âI Gotchaâ plays on the jukebox. The gang, minus Eric and Kelso, are at the wall table. Donna and Fez sit in the chairs, while Hyde and Jackie share the booth seat. Everyone but Jackie has food in front of them. Â DONNA: Jackie, youâre not eating? Â JACKIE: No, I left my checkbook at home and Iâm out of cash. My dad cut my allowance back to 50 dollars a month, and Michael borrowed it to buy me a dress. Â DONNA: Whyâd your dad cut your allowance? Â JACKIE: Oh, heâs mad because he let me use his credit card on our weekend in Milwaukee. I maxed it out on the Gloria Vanderbilt collection. Â KELSO enters, heads straight for their table. Â KELSO: Hey, guys, whoâs up for pinball? Â He indicates the pinball machine in the corner. Â HYDE: Nah, man, Iâm done with pinball. Â KELSO: Done with it or ready for more? Â HYDE: Done with it. Â KELSO: Or ready for more? Â When no one moves to play, he groans. Â KELSO (contâd): Come on, guys. I bought a half stake in this machine, so I need people to play so I can make some money. Â DONNA: You bought a half stake? How much was that? Â KELSO: Fifty bucks. Â Jackieâs head snaps up. Â JACKIE: And where did you get the fifty dollars, Michael? Â KELSO: From - Â He cuts himself off; he knows heâs been caught. Â JACKIE: You spent my fifty dollars on that stupid machine? Michael, you lied to me! Â KELSO: Jackie, listen. Thereâs an old saying: you buy a girl a dress, and she looks pretty for one night. But you buy her boyfriend a pinball machine, and she looks pretty for life. Â Jackie opens her mouth to protest, but stops: Hyde is watching her. Seeing this, she closes her mouth, folds her hands in her lap, and turns her nose up at Kelso. Â JACKIE: Fine, Michael. Â KELSO: (beat) Wait, really? All right, I got off pretty easy on that one! Letâs celebrate with a round of pinball! Come on! Â He gives a hearty wave toward the pinball machine as Jackie pouts, Hyde thinks, and Donna and Fez laugh. Â CUT TO: Â EXT. FORMAN DRIVEWAY â DAY Â Later that afternoon. RED and KITTY exit from the house and start across the drive. Â KITTY: Come on, Red. Bob really wants us to meet his new lady friend. Â RED: (stops) Now, think about it, Kitty. She likes Bob. I have a hard time believing this woman even exists. Weâre gonna get over there, Bobâs gonna be sitting in a rocker with a ladyâs wig on. (looks to his left) âYou look lovely tonight, Bob.â (looks to his right) âSo do you. Bob.â Â KITTY: (frowns) Youâve been working on that all day, havenât you. Â RED: (smiles) Yeah. Â And off they go. Â CUT TO: Â EXT. PINCIOTTI BACKYARD - DAY Â Later that afternoon. BOB and JOANNE tend to the set-up in the yard â grill, meat, lawn chairs, table. Â Kitty and Red come around the house. Kitty is leading a clearly reluctant Red by the arm. Bob smiles as they approach. Â BOB:Â Red, Kitty, Iâd like you to meet a very special lady: Joanne. Â Joanne offers a hand, and Kitty shakes it. Â KITTY:Â Well, Joanne, it is so nice to meet you. Right, Red? Â RED: We canât stay long. Â JOANNE: Ah, Red. Bob warned me you can be a pain in the ass. Â She, Bob, and Kitty laugh; Red scowls. Â JOANNE: Well, Iâll tell you what. Weâll just have dinner, and if it turns out you donât like me, weâll never invite you over again. Â RED: Really? I like you already. Well, letâs get this barbecue started. Bob, grab that meat. Â He gestures to the chicken on the table and makes for the grill, but itâs Joanne who picks up the chicken. Â JOANNE: Oh, I got it, Red. Why donât you fellas make a salad? Â RED: (laughs) Salad. (beat) Oh, youâre serious. No. See, Bob and I do the grilling. Â JOANNE: Not this time. Kitty, you wanna give me a hand? Â KITTY/RED: Well, Iâd love to./Oh, I donât think that - Â They cut each other off and look to one another. Â RED: But, Kitty, you might... set your lovely hair on fire. Â KITTY: Well, it canât be that hard. You do it. Â She and Joanne laugh and head to the grill with the meat. Bob shrugs and crosses to the table, Red following. Â RED:Â Bob, what the hellâs going on here? Â BOB: Look, Red, I really like this woman. So please, for today, just shut it. Â RED: âShut it?â Good God, Bob! Is she teaching you to stand up for yourself? Â BOB: (beat) Yes. Â RED: Well, cut it out! Â They stare each other down, Bob for once having the upper hand. Â BUMPER Â MUSIC NOTE: âLight Up by Styx. Â INT. HUB â DAY Â A little later still in the day. âLight Upâ by Styx plays on the jukebox. Eric has joined the gang, and theyâve moved to a table closer to the pinball machine. Kelso, Hyde, and Fez cluster around it while Eric and Jackie sit at the table. Ericâs nose is back in the school newspaper while Jackie glares at Kelso. Â JACKIE: God, I cannot believe Michael. No one plays that pinball game anymore. Heâs never going to get that money back. And that means Iâm never going to get that money back! Â ERIC: (reading) âAnd lo, Derek did then proceed to confer with his simple-minded drinking companions whether âtwould be appropriate for his and Wandaâs first fornication to be in the back of the bumpkin Miloâs wagon.â Â JACKIE: Eric, youâre not even listening to me. Â ERIC: (looks up) Whatâd you expect? Â Jackie scowls, slaps him in the shoulder. Eric points over to Hyde. Â ERIC (contâd): Jackie, Iâm having a hard time with this Derek and Wanda thing, and Hydeâs right there, so... Â JACKIE: No, I canât talk to Steven about Michael anymore. Â ERIC: (beat) What? Of course you can. Thatâs like â thatâs part of the group dynamic. When Kelso goes too far or too stupid, you get help from Hyde. Itâs like Looney Tunes. Hydeâs that big Marc Anthony dog and youâre the bitchy little kitten that claws onto his back. Â JACKIE: Look, when I told Steven I wanted to get back together with Michael, he got really upset and told me that if I ever had another problem with Michael, I should go to someone else. Heâs so damaged on trust, and with everything Michael and I have been through, I think he was disappointed in me. Â ERIC: (under his breath) Yeah, that was it. (to Jackie) But he got you and Kelso back together. Heâs gotta be over that by now. And, if heâs not - he said âsomeone else,â he didnât say me. Â Jackie slaps his shoulder again. Â Over at the pinball, Kelso looks around the Hub, searching for players. Â FEZ: (to Kelso) So how does this 50-dollar investment in pinball work? Â KELSO: Well, I bought a half stake, so for every quarter that goes in, I get half. So, the more people play, the more half-quarters I get until Iâve got a buttload of half-quarters. I start putting those half-quarters together, and Iâm rollinâ in it! Â Fez looks the machine over, nods. Â FEZ: I would like to buy a half stake. Â KELSO: No, thatâs a bad idea, Fez. Remember, youâre a foreigner. Youâre not used to our capitalist system. Weâre dealing with quarters here, not frogs or chickens. Â FEZ: (beat) Well, Iâm not going to dignify that with a response. Because I canât think of one. But when I do, a good day to you. Â KELSO: All right, Fez - Â FEZ: I said, kiss my ass! Â He turns away, fuming. Hyde pats him on the back. Â Donna enters. Eric stands to meet her. Â DONNA: So, you still mad? Â ERIC: No. No reason to be mad. Your story is just a pathetic attempt to rewrite history, make yourself look good. Iâm pretty sure everyoneâs gonna know who the dill-hole is here. Â DONNA: Eric, itâs just a story. No oneâs gonna think anybodyâs a dill-hole. Â Two girls, a BLONDE and BRUNETTE, stomp over and glare at Eric. Â BLONDE: Cat killer. Â BRUNETTE: Bastard. Â BLONDE: Porn freak. Â They scoff and disappear into the bathroom. Â DONNA: (beat) Okay, they could be talking about anybody. Â Hyde crosses over from the pinball, takes Ericâs vacant seat at the table. Â HYDE: Hey, weâre all porn-freak bastards, but heâs the only one who killed a cat. Â ERIC: Okay, okay. This school obviously needs to hear the Eric Forman version of things, a.k.a. the truth. So Iâm gonna write my own story. (to Donna) Yeah. Yeah, thatâs right. Iâm throwing down the gauntlet, baby. Â DONNA: Really? Okay, smarty, whatâs a gauntlet? Â ERIC: (scoffs) A gauntlet? Whatâs a gauntlet? (beat) Whatâs a gauntlet? (beat) I donât know, but itâs down, lady! Â He storms out of the Hub. Donna laughs, shakes her head, and sits down by Jackie. Â CUT TO: Â EXT. PINCIOTTI BACKYARD â EVENING Â The adults are sat down to an outdoor dinner â with a salad. Everyone but Red is enjoying the meal. Â BOB: (to Joanne) Boy, this chickenâs delish. What a chef. Â KITTY: You really know your way around a grill, Joanne. Â She and Joanne chuckle. Â RED: Mineâs dry. Â KITTY: (to Red) No it isnât. Itâs tender and delicious. Â RED: (to Joanne) Maybe if I chewed it with some water. Â JOANNE: Well, thereâs the hose. Â She nods to it, chuckles, and she and Bob enter the house. Â RED: (to Kitty) I donât like her anymore. Â KITTY: Well, I do. Â RED: Kitty, Iâm chopping vegetables, Bobâs telling me to shut it, youâre over there grilling with Susan B. Damn Anthony. Â KITTY: Well, fine, Red. If it bothers you, we can invite them over, and you can do the grilling. But for now, Iâd really appreciate it if youâd just shut it. Â RED: If one more person tells me to shut it - Â KITTY: What? You might actually shut it? Â They glare at each other across the table. Â CUT TO: Â EXT. MOORS â NIGHT Â Another story excerpt â but not from Donnaâs this time. Derek is tied to a large wooden stake stuck into the moor as Wanda, in a witchâs robe and hat, stirs a cauldron. Â DEREK: Please, Wanda, you donât have to boil me alive. Killing your cat was just a horrible accident. Â WANDA: I know, but Iâm a witch. Â Cue the lightning and thunder. Â DEREK: Dear God, why is a nice, sensitive guy like me dating a lying, manipulative witch like you? Â WANDA: Well, maybe itâs because even witches have itches. Â She whips her hat off and shrugs out of her robe, revealing a sexy red lingerie with black lace. Â DEREK: All is forgiven! Â Wanda dances her way over to Derek as bad porno music plays, and they begin to kiss. Â CUT TO: Â INT. FORMAN BASEMENT â NIGHT Â Eric and Fez sit on the couch. Eric tears the page he was working on from his notebook and crumbles it up. Â ERIC: God, why do all my stories end like that? Â FEZ: Donât stop. I like where you were going. Â Eric shrugs and resumes writing. Â FADE TO BLACK Â COMMERCIAL Â BUMPER Â INT. FORMAN BASEMENT â DAY Â The next day, afternoon. Hyde is in his chair, Fez is on one end of the couch, and Eric sits on the armrest of the other. He hands a stack of papers to Hyde. Â ERIC: So, guys, check out my story. I passed out a bunch of copies at lunch today. Â HYDE: Oh, Forman, this kind of thing always blows up in your face. Donât ever stop doing it. Â The basement door opens and Donna storms in, stack of papers in hand. Â DONNA: What the hell is this? Â ERIC: Oh, you didnât like my story? Â DONNA: Oh, yeah, I loved it. Especially this part. Â She flips a few pages, and we cut to: Â EXT. MOORS â NIGHT Â ERICâS STORY. Derek sits on a rock, next to Wanda in an ornate armchair. Â DEREK: Wanda, I have performed every task thou hath asketh of me. Please, can we finally consummate our love? I beseech you. Â He places a hand on her cheek. Â WANDA: Well, I said I would â so I wonât. Â She slaps his hand away. Â DEREK: But I beseeched you. Â WANDA: Okay, letâs consummate. Â DEREK: Really? Â WANDA: No. Â DEREK: Please. I beseech you. Â WANDA: Okay! Â DEREK: Really? Â WANDA: No. Now, rub my enormous feet. Â A footrest has conveniently appeared before her chair, and she puts up two feet the size of her torso. Â CUT TO: Â INT. FORMAN BASEMENT â DAY Â Donna looks up from the story to glare at Eric. Fez and Hyde, who have been reading along, look up as well. Â FEZ: Um, guys? I donât understand. What does âconsummateâ mean? Â HYDE: It means to have sex. Â FEZ: Really? Now I have two words for that. Â DONNA: Eric, you just wrote this to hurt me. Â ERIC: What? I did not. And â hey, so did you. Â DONNA: Look, when I wrote my story, I just sat down and thatâs what came out. I didnât, like, plan it or anything. And besides â no, you know what? I donât have to explain myself to you. Â She turns and exits. Â FEZ:Â Okay, Iâd like someone to explain it to me. Â HYDE: Well, thatâs easy, Fez. See, Donna, as an artist, wrote her story to get some perspective on her life. Forman, as a vindictive ass, wrote his story to be a vindictive ass. Â FEZ: Oof, Eric. I think you just consummated yourself. Â He and Hyde crack up as Eric thinks on that. Â INT. FORMAN KITCHEN - EVENING Â Kittyâs suggestion put into action: Bob and Joanne are over for dinner. They sit with Kitty at the table as Red enters from outside and sits down. Â RED: Well, steaks are a-cookinâ. What should we have to go with dinner? (to Joanne) Oh, I know. How about a salad? Say, Joanne, why donât you make the salad? Â JOANNE: (beat) No thanks. Â RED: Aww... make the salad. Unless you donât like to do lady jobs. Â Kitty grabs a roll and holds it in front of Red. Â KITTY: Red, put this in your mouth. Â BOB: Okay, you know what? Iâll make the salad. Â He stands. Â RED & JOANNE: Sit down, Bob. Â He sits. Â JOANNE: (to Red) Iâd love to make a salad. Â RED: Great! Â JOANNE: As soon as Red admits heâs not asking me to make a salad, heâs trying to put me in my place. Â RED: (beat) You are woman. I hear you roar. Â JOANNE: (shakes her head) I canât believe youâre so threatened by something as trivial as me grilling chicken. Â RED: Itâs not trivial. Men grill. Itâs been that way since the first caveman bonked a wooly mammoth on the head and threw it on the barbecue. And his cave wife made the salad! Â Bob sniffs the air. Â BOB: I smell something burning. Â RED: Oh! Â He scrambles out of his chair and bolts to the patio door. Â JUMP CUT: Â Moments later. Red sets down a pile of burned steaks. Refusing to concede defeat, Red takes one and sets it on his plate. Â RED: (to Joanne) Well, if you didnât want it well-done, you should have said something. Â Alone, he starts to eat. Â CUT TO: Â INT. HUB - DAY Â The next day, afternoon again. The Hub is packed, and itâs easy to see why: a new arcade game is in the building, SPACE INVADERS. And it just so happens to be in the spot where the pinball used to be. Â Kelso and Jackie make their way through the crowd gathered around the game to see Fez going at it. Â KELSO: What the hell? Whereâs my pinball machine? Â Fez turns around and smiles at Kelso. Â FEZ: Oh, where, indeed? Oh, I remember â I convinced the owner that pinball was out and Space Invaders was in. Oh, and did I mention... Â He pauses as the OWNER, a portly fellow, stops by long enough to press a thick wad of bills into Fezâs hands. Fez, very deliberately, waves the bills under his nose. Â FEZ (contâd): I bought a half stake in the machine. Â KELSO: (gasps) What? But â but the deal on my half stake was that if the owner ever sold the pinball machine, Iâd get my half back. Â FEZ: Yes, unless someone and his partner bought out your half stake and invested it in the new Space Invaders. Â KELSO: You? (Fez nods) But whoâs your partner? Â Hyde, who has been by the counter this whole time, passes through the crowd to Fezâs side. He puts his arm around Fezâs shoulders as Fez passes half the wad of bills into Hydeâs free hand. Â KELSO (contâd): Guys, why would you stab me in the back like this? Â FEZ: Well, rest assured, Kelso, your âfrogs and chickensâ comment had nothing to do with it. Â HYDE: (shrugs) I just couldnât pass up this nice of a burn. Â Kelso gasps again and looks to Jackie for sympathy. She has none. Â JACKIE: You know, Michael, thereâs an old saying: youâre dumb as dirt. Â He pouts and storms off. Jackie shakes her head and crosses to the booth seat. Hyde follows and sits next to her. Checking that Fez is preoccupied with Space Invaders, he counts out some bills and throws them on the table in front of Jackie. Â HYDE: Here. Â Jackie looks from him to the bills. Â JACKIE: Whatâs this? Â HYDE: Just â Â He gestures for her to take the money. Slowly, she picks it up and counts it. Â JACKIE: Steven, this is 50 dollars. (beat) Did you go in with Fez on that game to get my money back? Â HYDE: Hey, donât start getting gushy about this. Youâre only getting that so I can shut Forman up. Itâs bad enough I gotta listen to all the crap with him and Donna, now I gotta hear whatâs going on with you through him? Babbling about group dynamics and Looney Tunes? If I wanna hear about your little cheerleader problems, Iâll get it from you. Â He crosses his arms and turns his back to her. She keeps looking at him anyway; slowly, she realizes what heâs really saying. Â JACKIE: Okay. Well, then, Iâm not paying for lunch to say âthank you.â Iâm doing it because this Space Invaders business is the first time in your life that youâve had real money, and you probably donât know what to do with it. Â HYDE: Ah, bite me. Â JACKIE: (smiling) Youâre welcome. Â Hyde turns around and gives her a small smirk back. They stand together and cross to the counter. Â Eric enters. The blonde and brunette from earlier, who are reading school newspapers near the door, move to meet him. Â BLONDE: Hey, Eric. Weâre sorry we called you a cat-killer bastard porn-freak. Â ERIC: Oh. So, you read my story, huh? Â BRUNETTE: No, we read Part Two of Donnaâs story. The ending is so beautiful. Â The blonde gives Eric her copy, and they walk off. Â ERIC: Part... huh? Beauti... what? Â Jackie and Hyde, now each carrying a basket with a hot dog, cross to Eric as he looks down at the paper. Â ERIC: (reading) âAnd as Wanda walked away, she knew in her heart she would never stop loving Derek.â Â HYDE: Wow, thatâs good writing. Itâs emotional and it screws you. Â He and Jackie head back to their seat as Eric beings to read Part Two from the beginning. Â BUMPER Â INT. PINCIOTTI KITCHEN â DAY Â A short time later. Donna is at the kitchen island, making a sandwich. Eric enters from outside. Â ERIC: Hey. Hey, so, uh, funny thing. Um, your story had a second part, huh? Â DONNA: Yeah. The paper broke it in half because it was too long. Â ERIC: Oh. (beat) Well, uh, you know â maybe my story has a second part, too. Â DONNA: Eric, your story ended with âand he never saw that crazy bitch again.â Â She crosses to the fridge for peanut butter. Â ERIC: Well, you know, that was just a... prequel. To a story entitled, uh, âhe did see that crazy bitch again, and she was a delight.â (beat) Okay, I was... I was pretty mad when I wrote that. Â DONNA: Eric, I didnât mean to hurt your feelings. But, I mean, I guess I was mad when I wrote mine too. At least when I started. But once I got all that stuff off my chest... I mean, I felt better about us. More like the second half of my story. Â She crosses back to the island. Â ERIC: So, uh, so what happens to Derek and Wanda? Â DONNA: Well, in the story, they went off on their own adventures. Â ERIC: Yeah. Yeah, I mean, thatâs probably good for them. Â DONNA: Yeah. Itâs probably time they moved on. Â ERIC: Sure. Derekâs gonna be fine. Heâs a smart guy. The wenches love him. Â DONNA: Yeah, well, Wandaâs gonna do great too. Â ERIC: Oh, yeah, sure. And sheâll get all the wenches she wants. Oh, my God, Donna, thereâs your story: âWanda and the Dirty Wenches.â Â DONNA: (laughing) Shut up. Â ERIC: I know, I know. Â Donna gathers her sandwich, and they both sit at the kitchen table. Â ERIC (contâd): Thatâs a movie. Â He smiles, and Donna cracks up again. Â FADE TO BLACK Â CREDITS Â INT. HUB - DAY Â A (seemingly) empty Hub, except for Donna at the jukebox and Jackie at a table. When the door opens, and Fez enters, they rush to embrace him. Â DONNA: Oh, Fez! I canât hold my feelings inside any longer. Â JACKIE: Yes, we must finally tell you how much we desire you!

Will and El storylines
This is a straightforward picture of how I view their development.
El
Elâs main antagonist is Brenner. Brenner is the one that has caused the series we call Stranger Things to happen. Due to his cold and endless scientific curiosity, he has forever tainted their world with the Upside Down. There may never be a day where they achieve peace because of him.
Not only did Brenner take El as a newborn, not even allowing Terry to hold or touch her own baby, he stripped her of her name and raised her mostly alone in a cold laboratory.Â
Although we donât know the age at which the experiments and testing started, it is all El knew. The most warmth sheâs ever had was 1 stuffed animal toy, occasionally getting a story read to her, and getting to draw 1 picture.Â
After Brenner caused El to open the gate into the Upside Down, El took her fate into her own hands and escaped. She ran as hard as she could and found two safe havens. First Benny, who was killed for trying to help her, and then The Party.Â
There, she continued to decide her own destiny. She put her foot down when she needed to, refusing to let Lucas and Mike inform their parents. But, she was also on her own mission. She was searching for someone, someone she didnât even realize was associated with the boys who helped her.Â
The show doesnât delve into how she knew Will before she met the boys, but the comic illustrates she caught a glimpse of him on the other side and vice versa.
Now with the pieces all in place, El, in her own way, tries to undo her âwrongsâ. She wants to help the boys to find Will. Safely. In the end, she does. At a price. For a while, she canât be with her friends and Mike anymore. Sheâs lost her safe haven, but soon finds another in Hopper.Â
As we know, things with Hopper arenât all sparkles and rainbows. As time marches on, El grows more and more frustrated and she starts seeing things in Hopper she doesnât want to see. She sees traits of Brenner and what he did to her. While Hopper is nowhere near as bad as Brenner, itâs easy to see someone who experienced as much trauma as El can see the similarities. So she ditches Hopper to find a new safe haven.Â
She finds her mother. Alive. But broken. Another piece of her life broken by Brenner that may never be fixed. She canât fix this one, at least, not right away. Instead, she tries to follow her motherâs wishes, which leads her to her third safe haven. Kali.Â
Kali is just like her. They were tortured by the same man, both stolen away from their parents. They found a new family to feel safe with. But, thereâs a key difference between Kali and El. Kali heart is hard as stone. Sheâs been hurt one too many times. Her fear and rage fuel her to be on the offence against the people who hurt her instead of the defense. El tries to follow in her footsteps, but she canât. She doesnât want to split up families like they did to her and Kali.Â
It happens again. Brenner returns, but itâs a manifestation of Kaliâs powers. El and Kali are so alike, Kali knows Elâs pain and can use it against her. Itâs always Brenner who is her greatest fear. Her and Kali too.
When she closed the gate, who is it that pushed her over the edge to make one last huge push? Brenner.
It always comes back to one person. Brenner. Even when heâs supposedly dead, he has affected Elâs life forever. If he is still alive, I think even the big bad Mind Flayer wonât personally affect El as much as Brenner has. Even when El inevitably has to fight the Mind Flayer, I just canât see it cutting as deep as Brenner. She can fight the Mind Flayer. Itâs just a monster out to destroy her world. Brenner? His pain cuts much deeper, fighting him isnât as easy.Â
Elâs foe is Brenner.Â
Will
Willâs antagonist is the Upside Down, and the embodiment of the Upside Down, the Mind Flayer. Of course, he shares this antagonist with literally everyone. The difference between the others and himself is theyâre on the outside looking in, and heâs on the inside looking out. If that makes sense.
Willâs story will be a little faster to write. Probably.Â
Will was once a normal kid with a jacked up family. Despite this, heâs made the best of it. He has good friends. A good brother. And a very supportive caring mom. Good grades. Interesting hobbies. Although things arenât great with his dad, I think Will was content with the life he once had.Â
But, everything changed when he ran into the Demogorgon that night. He was kidnapped to an alternate dimension for a week and somehow managed to escape death right up till near the end. He was saved thanks to Elâs help.Â
Will comes back home, but things still arenât the same no matter how hard he tries. Heâs having visions. Nausea. Nightmares. Panic attacks. How many sleepless nights did he have? How many times did he crawl into bed with Jonathan and Joyce or vice versa? Heâs 12 going on 13 year old and probably feels like a small child again. Despite all this, for a while, Will is able to gain at least a little normalcy.
As the anniversary of the events comes closer, all that normalcy is washed down the drain. The Upside Down came back for him and overtook him. âI felt it... everywhere. Everywhere...â Imagine how traumatizing that is, being unable to move as youâre overwhelmed with what looks like smoke. Possibly unable to breathe or scream. The torture didnât end there. Every waking moment he didnât feel right. Stuff that probably wouldâve been enjoyable, like a hot bath, instills fear in him. But itâs not HIS fear, itâs someone elses.Â
Then he gets thoughts. But not his thoughts, someone elses. Memories. Visions. Feelings. Everything. All belonging to someone else. Feeling it all the time, unable to stop it. Itâs worse than invasion of personal space, his person is no longer his own. Something or something else is in his body. The Mind Flayer knows everything about him and uses it against the people he loves. He no longer has control over anything, not even his own voice.Â
In season 2, slowly but surely, Will loses his fight against the Mind Flayer/The Upside Down. Once again, he is rescued by his mother and his brother through a painful and intense exorcism.Â
El seals the deal and saves everyone by closing the gate, locking the Mind Flayer out.Â
The Intersection
The part that interests me on a deeper level is not necessarily how similar El and Will are as people, which they are, but how similar their personal antagonist are.Â
Brenner and The Upside Down/Mind Flayer have both changed Will and Elâs lives in personal irreversible ways. Yes, Brenner is technically everyoneâs enemy. So is the Mind Flayer. But who have they done the most damage to? The answer is obvious.Â
Controlling. Manipulative. Forcing them to do things they donât want to do. Knowing everything about them and using it as a weapon to cut deeper. Brenner and the Mind Flayer are big contributing factors as to why Will and El are so alike excluding their natural calm and quiet demeanor.Â
The FutureÂ
So what does this mean? Why does it matter? All of this boils down to how the cast are going to take out the two big bads. Brenner, and the Mind Flayer. I donât think El can do both all alone and she shouldnât have to. She has friends and family now to support her.
El is weak to Brenner, but with her powers can fight the Mind Flayer.Â
Will is weak to the Mind Flayer, but Brenner has no hold over Willâs psyche.
I think both these big baddies will need the whole group to help take them down just like the previous seasons, but I also think thereâs some importance for the main people affected get the final blow.
El getting to slap or punch Brenner? El getting to throw him against a wall? El getting to tell him off to his face??? I want this to happen for her. I want her to get her chance to take down her big bad, the one person who ruined her life. She deserves her moment. Kali too, Iâm not sure how Kali fits into this, but a team up of her and Kali getting a few licks in? Thatâd be good too.Â
As for Will, this place has been haunting him for years. Itâs stolen years of his life and continues to bother him, his friends, and his family even still. I think Will deserves to have his winning moment as well. Heâs not El. I donât think any power he has will be able to do anything to the Mind Flayer. Not like El can. No, I want Will to be the one that crafts the ultimate plan that takes out the Mind Flayer for good. I want Will to be the brains, and for the others to use his blueprint to win.Â
I always visualize it as the Mind Flayer and Will on opposite sides of a chessboard. And on Willâs chessboard, El would he his queen piece, the strongest piece on the board. Oof, thatâs so cool to me. It really ties into that scene with Joyce and Will at the table for lunch and in response to Joyceâs question, he says, âSometimes, the bad guys are smart too.âÂ
(note: I do think Will could help El with Brenner, but Brenner feels like more a Mike and Hopper problem for now)
The Powers
Onto the powers thing, my favorite thing to talk about. Over the last year or so, Iâve thrown out all kinds of theories about what powers Will could have and why. I probably have hundreds of posts, some serious, some not. As season 3 grows closer, I think Iâve settled on what they are.Â
Clairvoyance or the power to feel ones intentions. A general sensitivity to things. A heightened sense of empathy.Â
Something Upside Down related is headed towards Hawkins again? Will would be the first to feel it.Â
Something supernaturally bad is happening in Hawkins? Will could point out where on a map or draw it out.Â
Meets someone who seems sketchy? His gut would be able to accurately confirm or deny any suspicions.Â
Need to peek into the Upside Down (or possibly other dimensions?), Will can use True Sight.Â
True sight includes being immune to illusions, so Kaliâs power might not work on him.Â
As you can see, none of these powers are out of this out of this world crazy or bonkers. None of them conflict with Elâs powers either. These are all things Will has done before and while being possessed by the Mind Flayer. Season 3 will show us exactly how much is him and how much belongs to the Mind Flayer.Â
Itâs also interesting to note that Joyce displayed a few of these traits too and she has nothing to do with the Mind Flayer. As season 2 has showed us with Terry, the writers are following the Montauk Project blueprint in how powers are acquired. Genetics. Trauma. And drugs.Â
Whenever I speculate Willâs powers, I never think about it as, âWhat power can make Will just as powerful as El or stronger?â It canât work like that. You see, El was an experiment. Day in and day out, the laboratory focused solely on making her power stronger. Itâs unnatural. There is probably no other psychic more powerful than El and Kali. They are the equals in that regard, not Will and El.
When I speculate about Willâs powers, I think, âWhat power could Will have that would fill in gaps El doesnât so they can be a team?âÂ
In season 2, Elâs power revealed a huge gaping hole. She can only see the people sheâs searching for or have met/seen before. So when they went to kill Ray, El did not know he had daughters and could not see them. This blindsided the gang and inevitably put a bigger target on their back.Â
So what power do I think could have helped El cover he bases better? Someone who can help her not just see one person, but maybe everyone in the area sheâs looking at.Â
Think about what Will was doing while the Mind Flayer possessed him. It was kinda similar to El where he could remote view what was going on. But he didnât need to know all those soldiers to see them dying. He saw the whole area, their whole trip down into the tunnels. The catch is, his vision was tied to what the Mind Flayer was seeing. The only time Will used their connection to see what he wanted to see absent of the Mind Flayer is during the search for Hopper.
So imagine this same concept applied to an El and Will team up. Will can see what El can see. She can go anywhere she wants if she knows the person sheâs looking for, but Will, through her, can help see not just the one person, but everyone theyâre with and their surroundings instead of a black void. A booster for Elâs existing powers.Â
I imagine Will is a booster. Not particularly strong on his own like any other natural psychic, but with a skill set that boosts the effectiveness of other psychics. The team buffer.Â
I love the concept. I donât think Iâve ever written about it here because Iâve been saving it for my fic you see. A fic that will take forever to write, so why not. The one time Iâve alluded to it is my Bathtub Theory.
The Ships
I just want to get this out of the way. Byler shippers? Mileven shippers? Iâm not on either of your teams. My blog doesnât exist to boost your ships. Whatever ship happens doesnât really matter to me. At all. Iâm agnostic. Iâm not out to get you, but the posts I make also arenât meant to be evidence for shipping.
Iâm not crafting theories and posting about parallels because Iâm trying to make Will and El compete for Mike. Or to make Will the one and only main character. Or to reduce the importance of other characters and story lines. Iâm making these posts because I feel like these parallels and similarities are going to mean something for the plot against the bad guys and them as characters.Â
I make Will and El comparisons to Mike sometimes not even to stress how important Mike is to them, but to show how the characters end up treating them similarly because of their circumstances. I use it as proof both of them have an extraordinary role in the group on purpose. The two oracles. The ones the group will turn to when stuff starts going down.
This willel blog? Itâs a sideblog. This is where I put most of my Will and El love. My love for other characters that arenât the Byers/Hoppers are on my main blog which I donât really advertise because thatâs what what youâre here for. This blog is compartmentalized love for two main characters out of ... however many we have now. 20. I bet many of you didnât even know my second favorite character under Will is actually my dearest action hero son Lucas Sinclair whose story line I canât wait to see this season.Â
The only kid ship I KINDA care about is Luxmax. And thatâs ok people. We donât all need to care or love the same things, you know? That would make a boring uncreative fandom. Itâs not about the ships for me. Itâs not. It never has been. I made this blog because there were no Will and El blogs at the time, only ships.Â
Conclusion
I love my potential siblings. I think they have a lot in common and can relate with one another in ways the others canât. They arenât the same people. They donât even have the same beef with the main antagonist of the series. They donât have the same powers. They donât have the same life experiences. They donât have the exact same personality. Although similar, they donât have the same trauma.Â
Theyâre parallels. The definition of parallel is âside by side and having the same distance continuously between themâ or âa person or thing that is similar or analogous to another.â Or, analogous, âperforming a similar function but having a different evolutionary origin, such as the wings of insects and birds.â
You see that? Side by side. Similar. Analogous. Not same. Carbon copy. Identical.
Theyâre twins. My mom and aunt are twins. They have so many similarities including their face, but are also have a huge gaping canyon between their personalities. They arenât the same person and thatâs never what Iâve pushed here.
Please understand, I love Will and El because well, I always gravitate towards stories like theirs. Two people completely unrelated and barely even know each other brought together by supernatural forces and managed to work together to take down the big bads with their friends/family. For me, itâs like found family to the extreme. I love it. I always fall for it.
I have so much fun crafting theories about their powers. I have fun coming up with fluffy or angsty headcanons about them. I have fun thinking of big family Hopper-Byers scenarios and making gifsets. This is what I enjoy personally.Â
I know you guys are having your ship war, but please leave me out of it. Iâm not involved. Leave my posts out of it. Ok? Iâm tired of it, you know? The other day it really depressed me. I felt like all my love for Will and El was being misinterpreted as existing only to stir up ship wars. I contemplated hiding my blog for a while until my rage passed over, but at the end of the day, I donât have the energy to be mad. Iâm just sad.Â
My one wish is for Will and El not to receive hate because of ships because you know what? Thatâs the worst possible outcome possible for season 3. They donât deserve it.Â

3, 11, 20!
3. If you could revive one GoT character, who would it be and why?
Without a doubt, Theon Greyjoy. I would die for my son, and even though his death made sense and did work (unlike a lot of season 8) it still pains me. And I hate that he died so far away from the sea, and that his body was burned. He was a Greyjoy and a Stark, and I would see him brought back and brought back to the sea.
11. Whatâs an unpopular GoT opinion you have?
I adore Catelyn Tully Stark. It frustrates me to no end how she is often reviled by the fandom for her treatment of Jon. No, I do not approve of her attitude toward Jon, but I also donât approve of Jaime screwing his sister or pushing a child out of a tower, and yet I still enjoy his character. Catelyn is a multi-dimensional woman who prioritizes being a mother and being a wife. Bastards were something to be ashamed of in Westeros society, that point has been driven home repeatedly. Her attitude is not unique - Dorne is the only place that really accepts bastards. Even if Catelynâs marriage had been purely political, and there was never any love between her and her husband, having a bastard be raised alongside her children was humiliating for her. Catâs prejudice towards bastards was reflective of the systemic disregard and disrespect given to bastards. So there is humiliation there that Catelyn feels every day, but there is also hurt. Because her marriage was not purely political, she loved Ned. She loved him deeply. And every day she had to face the child that was his, but not her own. And everyone in the seven kingdoms knew what an honorable man Ned Stark was, and so would it be a far stretch of the imagination to think that the only thing that could make Ned Stark forsake his vows to his wife, was love for another woman? Every single day, Catelyn was faced with the representation of her greatest humiliation, her greatest hurt, and a credible threat to her trueborn children. Bastards could be raised to higher stations, bastards could in rare cases inherit. And if Ned had already defied convention and brought his bastard son to be raised with his trueborn children, who was to say that he wouldnât raise him above Robb? When Ned supposedly broke his vows, no one could say anything for certain about the Lord of Winterfell and what he would do. Cat was a Stark and a Tully. She was part of the pack, and she valued family above everything. Jon just wasnât a part of her family.
Iâm not excusing Catelynâs actions. She was cold, and hard, and caused tension within the family. She directly contributed to Jonâs self-loathing and internalized hatred of bastards. I also acknowledge that Cat had other flaws apart from this. However, I regularly see her scorned and rejected by fandom, simply for her treatment of Jon, while other characters who have also committed many crimes, are revered and redeemed. Catelyn Stark looked at her greatest hurt and her greatest humiliation every single day. I canât even watch a show or read a fic that has major infidelity between a couple, without getting an awful feeling in the pit of my stomach. Catelyn Stark was a human person, with flaws, and this was one of them, yet itâs the one that people tend to fixate on the most, and it drives me bonkers. She wasnât perfect, and there were lots of things she did/said that I found maddening, but at the end of the day she is so much more. Sheâs the Tully woman who no one thought would survive the North. Sheâs the woman who stopped an assassin with her bare hands. Sheâs the Lady of Winterfell, who loved her children so fiercely no one would ever dare say she wasnât a wolf, no matter how much Tully blood was in her veins. She was the mother of kings and queens. Sansa learned how to play the game at the hands of Cersei Lannister and Petyr Baelish and a whole host of terrible people, but she learned kindness and love first. She learned how to be a lady, and the Lady of Winterfell from her mother. Catelyn Stark was Sansaâs first teacher, and she honored her mother in her coronation dress, and in every courtesy. We may not have seen Catelynâs influence on Bran because D&D hate him but nothing in this world could convince me that he didnât find some way to honor her in his own fashion. The heart of this story has always been the Starks, and the heart of the Starks was Catelyn Tully Stark.
20. Rate the GoT great houses in order from your favorite to least favorite.
1. Stark2. Martell3. Tyrell4. Dayne5. Manderly
send me a got related ask!

#BuffyAt20 - S03E08 âLoverâs Walkâ
> OKay, first thingâs first: is it Lovers or Loverâs? Wikipedia has the first one, Hulu has the second. Very confusing.
> Another fake-out opener where someone is being hyperbolic about the world ending but itâs just grades or something.
> Willow got a 740 verbal on her SATs. Like, I think sheâs being too hard on herself, but I get not feeling academically fulfilled by that. I think I got 700? I donât remember. My math sucked, thatâs for sure.
> That Cletus the Slack-Jawed Yokel reference has endured the test of time.
> What is Xanderâs score if itâs close to 740? We joke about his grades a lot but like. Get serious, son.
> Willow, that top is so loud.
> Omigod, Iâm looking forward to going back to pretending Xillow never happened soon.
> Cordelia testing well is good continuity with âBand Candy.â And I loved them following up on SAT scores. I think these might have come out a little quick, but itâs fine.
> âThat was my sarcastic voice.â âYâknow, it sounds a lot like your regular voice.â âIâve been told that.â I feel you, Oz.
> Cordeliaâs terror at the idea of double dating IS A DANGER SIGN, XANDER.
> I have Buffyâs SAT score memorized: â1430, Buffy, you kicked ass!â (A friend got the same score on her first take.)
> âNow you can leave and never come back.â I actually love Cordy here, a rarity for me lately.
> Pretty sure the shot of Spike crashing into the Sunnydale sign is just a retouched copy of the one from Season 2. Not a problem, just funny.
> I wasnât sure I had the energy to do my #BuffyAt20 right now but this theme song is giving me life.
> I donât get Spikeâs obsession with Sinatra in this episode but sure.
> Oh man, remember the Factory? Itâs a slot on my Buffy Monopoly board.
> Do we feel the flashback to when Dru left Spike that we get in Season 3 keeps in line with what weâre presented here? Dru accusing him of loving Buffy as far back as now? Hm.
> Literally the episode where Cordelia and Xander break up is the episode where it most seems like theyâre a happy couple. And even then, theyâre horrible to each other half the time. Sigh.
> Oz giving Willow the PEZ Witch is still one of the best things ever. I really wanted a wolf PEZ for Oz.
> Okay, a friend and I recently discussed a fan poll where people voted on their favorite mate for Willow and it made me uncomfortable that Oz was winning. But⊠I get it.
> Thereâs a lot of focus on Giles packing in this scene.
> Ooh! Worth noting: the guy who wrote this episode wrote three of my favorite #Daria episodes! Heâll also later write âThe Zeppo.â
> This episode laid a lot of interesting potential for Buffy to be able to leave Sunnydale. Not forever, but, even if just for college. It was interesting.
> I wish I could make Buffy Now see how much Giles treated Seventeen Buffy like an adult over this Angel situation. He couldâve been SUUUCH a prick. And their relationship got really awkward for a while there, and I donât think Buffy was entirely fair to him. Or probably him to her too. Fathers and daughters, man.
> I spent a whole dumb Xillow scene typing that last one. Not sorry.
> Iâve said it before but itâs wild that Buffyâs house never changes once in 7 seasons. The cinematography changes so much that it feels like a different house.
> How does Angel not hear, or even sense, Spike right outside the Mansion? Still recovering from Hell, I guess? Coz otherwise, wtf?
> I do love Spike waking up on fire.
> What happened to Spikeâs car between Seasons 3 and 4 anyway? Whereâs that story?
> âThis is just too much.â Some real gentle language there, Spike.
> The Magic Box is, like, the same SHAPE we see in Season 5. But the layout isnât totally right. And the back hasnât been blown out yet. The storefront is the same. They moved the register away from the door. Hmm.
> Ooh, that Spike shot of grabbing the shop owner becomes his credits shot.
> Hey! Itâs the Mayor! I forgot heâs in this one. And Allan! Heâs pretty cute, tbh.
> âBoats did have canons. And a loose one would cause it to rock.â Lol.
> The way that the Mayor celebrates sinking that putt makes me wonder if he hadnât been expecting it, haha.
> Where is Angel getting hair gel from in the Mansion? How is this a priority? Then again: same question at Derek Hale sleeping in a train yard.
> Iâm not loving the dramatic beat when Angel tells Buffy she should leave. Like. Buff. Shouldnât you? Sigh.
> Willow is trying to do magic on Xander without his consent. Thatâs actually an interesting portent for Season 6.
> Xander and Willow, like, really try and hold their own against Spike here. Mad respect.
> Alyson Hannigan shows such amazing vulnerability in the scenes with James Marsters, itâs bonkers. And then how it flips on a dime to be comedic. Wild chemistry, those two.
> OOOH, Dru accused Spike of going soft for teaming up with Buffy, eh? InterestingâŠ
> HA! The âchaos demon, all slime and antlersâ line was a favorite among fans, so we loved finally seeing him in Season 5.
> âI havenât had a woman in weeks.â Blech. âWell, unless you count that shopkeeper.â Double blech.
> âIâm not a real witch, you know.â Heh.
> It. Is. SO. Clever. That Willow sends Spike to Buffyâs house. Holy. Shit.
> You know who else is a good version of Cordelia Chase? Valencia from Crazy Ex-Girlfriend. Becomes a good person in, like, half the time itâs taking CordyâŠ
> Ugh, I hate coincidence moments like that. Buffy heard Spike on the phone when her mom happened to call? Sigh.
> YAAS, the Joyce/Spike bond! We needed more of this!
> Joyce Summer is Top 5 TV Mom material.
> âYou get out of this house or I will stake you myself.â GEDDIT, JOYCE!
> Lol, remember how Buffy is going to start sleeping with Spike? This show, man.
> Spike just called Angel a âpoof.â Nice.
> âWhat if they were kidnapped by Colombian drug lords?â CORDELIA. STOP.
> Oz smelling Willow is⊠interesting.
> Buffy is so eager to kill Spike.
> Did Buffy rip off Sookie Stackhouse with this love triangle or vice versa? Angel being Bill, Spike being Eric. Hm.
> Buffy always made kicking in doors look so cool.
> What exactly are we supposed to make of Spikeâs observation about Buffy and Angel being in love here? I mean, heâs right. But. Like. What, they needed someone else to tell them?
> âI won, right? Kicked his ass?â âYou were real brave. Do you need to barf.â Classy.
> âGive me a third option.â âHeâs so drunk he forgets about us and we starve to death.â HA.
> AAAAAnd they kiss, aaaand Oz and Cordy show up, aaaand itâs horrible. AAAAND Oz is the only one who composes himself maturely, like always.
> Cordelia getting skewered was⊠so weird.
> Theyâre having this vampire fight, like, in the middle of downtown Sunnydale right now. I get that itâs probably 3am or something but omigod.
> Oh yeah, the storefront is definitely the same a when itâs the Magic Box.
> Seeing Buffy, Angel, and Spike standing side-by-side is a hoot.
> The âletâs give baby a tasteâ stuff Spike does is⊠No.
â âBaby like his supper?â No. No he doesnât.
> The table Spike stakes this guy on is, like, probably the same table he and Anya bang on in Season 6, haha.
> The holy water bombs are so cool. Why donât they use holy water more often?
> The resolution of this Spike story is⊠so Spike. You know, we probably wouldâve never seen him again if they didnât love James Marsters SOOO much.
> Remember when they made us think Cordelia died? Like, right after she found of Xander cheated on her? This story was, like, one of the lowest points of the show. Iâm sorry but it was. I remember laughing out loud when we found out Cordy wasnât dead. Thatâs not something you wanna get a laugh on.
> What was the point of this story arc, though? âDonât cheat or someone could die?â This is a âBlood on the Pavementâ type parable here. Way more Dawsonâs Creek than Buffy The Vampire Slayer.
> I remember thinking Cordelia was going to be blind, because of the âI canât see youâ thing. I donât know how being skewered would blind her.
> Okay, CAN WE TALK about the nailed-up broken sheets of wood at the Mansion entrance? It is the weirdest thing, it looks like a childâs tree fort.
> Buffy, if you think youâre fooling Giles and your friends into believing you donât want Angel, you are sorely mistaken.
> Angel, be a big boy, let the seventeen year old girl go.
> She has to step through his weird cobbled-together wooden doorway! And itâs gone, like, after this episode! Wtf!
> This maudlin montage of all the characters being despondent was, like, the biggest bummer. Why do I love Season 3 so much?? This is such a downbeat point for the show.
> And thereâs Spike riding off into the sunset. See you in a year, William.

1. In the last five seconds I came up with an explanation to her depression. It was already there way before Tony's accident, because she would withhold speech and the rare unseen skins of her burning things. Even in the description of pop it says "will Effy's slowly going bonkers cause her to finally pop". They never explain the full reason behind it, but I think, maybe there isn't a very specific reason. She could have been really sick of her strict parents (trust me I know), her dad's anger,
annlovesgewinnen said to effys-closet: Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â 2. and/or maybe it was genetic, we do see Anthea having says of depression, maybe she also had the probability to get it. I think they planned it from the beginning cuz her "backwards" dialogue, and the 2 unseen skins. What doesn't make sense though is that she acts completely fine in season 2 and 3 (as in, no obvious symptoms that there is a problem), maybe it's high function depression? I came up with this about 2 minutes ago, so obviously it's very reliable (sarcasm). Â Â Â Â Â
I think youâre right that it was there before Tonyâs accident. My headcanon is that her selective mutism happened gradually when she was a child as a result of her parents yelling at her and trying to provoke her to react to them.  If her parents are explosive (and we know that Jim is), I think it makes sense that the only power she could have is by not engaging. I think she probably has had unipolar (major) depressive episode since she was maybe 8, judging by her series 4 Unseen Skins episode. Itâs just something that some people struggle with throughout their lives, which I think is the case for Effy and, as you mentioned, Anthea as well. It explains why she feels like sheâs âborn backwardsâ. I actually think it would also explain why she loves partying so much in the first three series of the show, and maybe lend some explanation to where her selective mutism stems from. And itâs pretty common for people to have unipolar episodes of depression before their first psychotic depressive episode. I think she shows a lot of symptoms of depression (social isolation, not talking much, reckless sexual and drug taking behaviors, lack of emotional affect), but because weâre led to think itâs part of her personality, we donât notice those symptoms until itâs too late.

Kim Possible season 3 recap
And here is part 3 of my KP marathon notes. Obligatory thanks to @fereality-indy for encouraging me to watch this awesome show.Â
So, what will happen this this time? Will Kim Possible save another kitten from a tree? Will Ron discover something better than nachos? Will Doctor Drakken release the Krakken? Will Shego puncture her ego? Will Lord Monkeyfist buy Club Banana just because he is bonkers? Will Duff Killigan finally score?
So, letâs see whatâs the first big problem KP has to deal with!
Kim being alone on a Friday evening. Okay.
Also, amusingly, everyone is doing something on a Friday evening, including the villians.Â
Motorhead turns out to be Drakkenâs cousin. okay.
And people know the address of Drakenâs lair bc of mailing list
See, itâs the little touches like those that make this show a very accurate portrayal of superheroes and villians.Â
KP gets jealous of Ronâs friend in wheelchair because they spend too much time together playing video games, so she has to find a way to âfit inâ.
Okay, so they can approach it in a sensible and subtle, or so-cringe-worthy-and-painful-the-skip-button-presses-itself way.
So, which did they choose?
painful it is
Few stupid scenes later, Draken STEALs THE WHEELCHAIR FROM A DISABLED KID
shego: whatâs next, stealing lolipop from a baby?
and there is a brilliant running joke about it
is it ableist to say that a joke about disabled person is ârunningâ? Well, this is tumblr you gotta be carfeul
Anyway, turns out that Drakken and Jake the Dog make an actual competent combo, even though they end up in prison. And momma Lipski is still clueless about her sonâs profession
Next ep: KIM CHANGED HER HAIR! and she looks cute
Ron is a pickle, but thatâs normal
Draken and shego steal moodulators (get it?) from random scientist #464
Shego: if you are so smart why do you always steal instead of inventing things yourself
Draken: itâs called outsourcing, shego
God d amit, that is a smart show.Â
And of course moodultaors accidentally fall on KP and SHego, so they act random throughout the day. And boy it is weird when itâs set to loveskick
Shego: steals lolipop from a baby for Drakken because she luvs him
KP turns into a proper stalker mode for her Ronnie
And Monique is completely fine with it.Â
and then kim KISSED him!!!
OMG NOSEBLEED
And then poor Ron has no idea what to do with dating KP so suddenly, and the whole scene where he debates what to do is absolute gold with a punchline that defies expectations.Â
Draken and Shego go on a date and boy it is weird. SHE CATWALKS TO HIM
I can already see Disney censors thinking when itâs going to be too much for The Mouse
and kimâs dad threatens to send ron to a black hole when he takes her on a date
Also the random professor wants to sell his no-longer-existent moodulaTors on auction and he thinks about blaming it on the mail. You know, iâve seen some approaches how to handle a world where superheroes/villians/geniuses live in our society (like in BNHA, for example), but KP so far makes it the best approach, because it makes them so relatable.Â
And boy the finale is satisfying because everything completely backfires
Shego and KP got stuck in an anGry mode, and chase their boys. Ron tries to hide in the same place as drakken
Drakken: Dibs!
Ron: Double dibs!
Drakken: all right, you won with your superior dib-calling (ACTUAL QUOTE)
And the day is saved thanks to the power of friendship and not that Kp and ron are definitely in love with each other
KP, Ron, Drakken and Shego somehow manage to get into Tv, where they visit parodies of famous shows
Honestly, meh. I remember a similar episode of Teen Titans, that one was funny as heck.
and then we find out whoâs the real villian of the middleton high: THE SCARY LIBRARIAN!
And turns out Ron accidentally put a book Kim rented in his backpack, causing her to get into trouble doing library duties.Â
So he goes on a mission to revisit all of the bad guys they fought to see where he might have left it
Okay: calling it now, itâs still in his backpack
Shego: Whereâs Possible?
Ron: Sheâs not my girlfriend!
Shego: Never said she was.Â
And Ron accidentally saves the world on that book hunt
Lord Monkey:Ron Stoppable!
Ron: Youâre the only one, who remembers my name, I respect that
Okay, so Wade can make stuff invisible. Like, how?
And there we go: the book it was in his backpack all the time.Â
Oh, and Ron takes a book from Lord Monkeymonkey contaning a spirit of a monkey demon.
And he returns to the library, saving Kim from being bored to death by retunring the book.Â
GUESS WHICH ONE HE RETURNED.
Oh, it was another half-episode. Weird.Â
And the next one is about giant bugs. Interesting how Kim tells Ron not to be afraid of bugs, and next moment sheâs all squirmish while Ron befriends a giant roach and calls him Roachie.Â
KP: Ron, did you start working on the project? it was supposed to be autobiographical
ron: No, Iâm waiting for it to write itself.
WE MIGHT GET RUFUSâ BACKSTORY!
Oh, and Drakken tried to take over the world with shampoo. Honestly, itâs funny as heck
he tries smarty mart to sell it
he even makes loreal-style ad, but it doesnât sell
so he tries product placement in a hip hop song, and the artists is like âAw, hell noâ
And thenÂ
and then
turns out that Shego and Drakken are having karaoke night every friday.
God dammit, i donât know why but that is beyond funny
and turns out that Drakken can sing.Â
and shego points out that he could sing about the shampoo
so he goes to an american idol
And I think I realise what really makes it funny: Kp is barely in this episode, helping ron with homework. No evil-doing is actually done, we only get to see, for the most part what goes behind the scenes of an evil plan that is so insanely and unnecessary convoluted it is beyond belief.Â
OH, AND kp GETS TO RIVAL HIM ON STAGE, OF COURSE.
people hypnotised by the shampoo so far: one (1) random henchman
one (1) old TV producer in a saunaÂ
one (1) Simon Cowell
And...holy shit, his song is actually good.Â
And instead of KP, who is busy fighting the mean lean green machine, Ron sings about Rufus. The song is titled âNaked Mole Rapâ. And it is FREAKING PHENOMENAL.
Oh, add one (1) Shego to the list.Â
Okay, so far that is the most crazy episode. Like, seriously, the quality was through the roof.
SCRATCH THAT NEXT EP is EVEN WEIRDER
So, the Team Impossible, which we have learned about in the movie, is angry at KP for saving the world for free, whereas they actually charge people for it.Â
And they try to cut Kim from all of her world-traveling assets and knock her out of competition.
THAT IS FUCKING V ILE
And they hack Wade
AND TURNS OUT YOU DONâT FUCK WITH WADE
YOU DONâT CUT THEIR INTERNET CABLES OF A NERD
SINCE THIS IS ONE WAY TO MAKE AN OBESE SUPER GENIOUSÂ WALK OUT OF THEIR ROOM
AND HE LOOKS SO FREAKING BAD-ASS WHEN HE STORMS INTO THEIR HEADQUATERS
aaand TI is defeated the same way they would have been defeated had they answered the call.Â
Pretty funny, and it does go into the details of how on Earth superheroes work in this world.Â
And we have another episode about the secret ninja high school Ron was sent toÂ
And Yori travels to US for RonÂ
And Kim is super jelaus
Wade: Kim, you are jelly
Kim: So not
Monique: You are jellyÂ
Kim: So not
Kim: *is jelly*
So she pretty much stalks Ron all the way to the school, and nearly fails the mission of trying to save the levitating magical jedi principal. Seriously, heâs OP as fuck.
And heâs escaping from a huge monkey. turns out itâs crazy dna lady who turned herself into monkey for Lord Britishmonkey.Â
Next episode is bascially one huge satire on the movie industry, down to the title (âand The mole rat will be CGIâ). KIm and Ron accidentally crash a movie set, after Senior Senior Junior crashes it first since he accidentally applied for a role of a henchman in said movie.Â
It was supposed to be set in Britian, but the movie set was in New Zealand, since âit was cheaperâ
And I was likeÂ
Is that a âLord of The ringsâ joke? Someone tell me if Iâm right.
Oh, and we have another long episode WHAT DO YOU MEAN THERE IS ANOTHER MOVIE?
And it looks like itâs a three-part episode again, I wonder if the formulaâs gonna work again.Â
The beginning feels like a short promo scene for people who might not know what KP is about, and Iâm not gonna lie, this sums it up perfectly. Action, drama, explosions, more drama, goofy ron, naked mole rat kicking ass and more drama. By the way, what;s the title?Â
I guess the intro is an homage to the James Bond ones, with lots of colourful, surreal visuals floating in the background to the soothing, slow music. Love it, too bad itâs short, but again, it had to fit an episodeâs running time.
 wait so the Nakasumi president CAN speak English? Even the movie calls him wacky for whispering all the time as if he couldnât.Â
Okay, now the movie just fucks with us.Â
mr and mrs possible almost switch their cloaks with important documents, but she switches them back just at the last moment
mr posible ALMOST deletes his work file worth three billion dollars but undos it at the last moment.
itâs like the plot TRIES to start itself
And I bet the key is under the doormat
So the dating drama IS going to be the theme of the movie, huh.Â
Wade: Drakken has been spotted in the Bermuda triangle
Bermuda triangle: *turns out to be a hotel*
And Ron just happened to have his suit under the scuba diving gear.
Shego proves to be once again, way more competent than Drakken.
and we have obligatory fight between two kickass ladies in dresses and high heels. This IS a James Bond movie.Â
So, the prom drama continues, and it is sadly kinda goes into the cringe territory, with some new dude falling in love with Kim and Kim falling for him, Ron feeling sad, they both being conflicted, yep, seen it.Â
But for once Drakken helps the cause and moves the plot forward, stealing some super project from dr Possible.
he deletes the file like he did in the opening, but GASP drakken has some mind reading machine
I do wonder if the coat switcheroo is going to be part of the plot.Â
Holy shit
Drakkenâs plan is so crazy that it actually makes sense. Take over the buneo nachos and put kiddy meals in it with robot toys that take over the world. And neither kim nor Shego could have forseen it.Â
And more prom drama. Ugh.Â
I always like when Possible family work together to stop the evil-doers.
So Drakkenâs plan was brilliant, minus the part when the entire army of robots shuts down when the signal goes off-line. Kinda a major fuck-up.Â
And they kindapped Kimâs boyfriend to lure her. Â
OH, SO HE WAS A SYNTH ROBOT
I genuinely didnât see that coming.Â
Drakken learns Ronâs name, yeah! And itâs shot like Drakkenâs yelling a curse to the skies, love it.Â
Also, HOLY SHIT, Kim kicks Shego into the tower so hard it looks like she was about to kill her. Like, that was genuinely chilling moment, especially with an ominous, lightning-filled close-up onto her later.
Spoiler: she didnât die.Â
Okay, colour me confused: I didnât think that Kim and Ron were going to kiss and start dating now, I thought this movie was going to be one huge prequel to a movie by the end of S4. Or more precisely, it feels weird NOW, knowing that there is a whole season ahead of me. Cos that felt like a pretty good end of a series, something akin to the Last Airbender one, so Iâm slightly concerned how itâs going to be played into season 4, cos this can go haywire pretty easily.Â
Uh, not going to lie, Iâve got mixed feelings about the movie. On one hand, it gave us a proper evil plan from Drakken, one that attacks Kim psychologically, showing that for once, he DID his homework and actually studied Kimâs behaviour. On the other, the prom/dating drama is kinda painful to watch, but fortunately gets resolved in the end. Maybe itâs just me, but I had the same expression as Rufus when he and Ron said that guys donât talk about feelings. It felt kinda clumsy and not subtle at all, and whatâs worse, the show itself did way better job of portraying romance in previous episodes, most notably the moodulator one. But as I said, those last few scenes with Ron and Kim fighting together does make up for it.Â
also, Rufus once again is the unspoken hero. He did so freaking much, including, but not limited to: saving ron from the tentacle monster, freeing kim and ron, defeating the synth boyfriend, pushing Kim and Ron together... He really is a badass.  Â
So, not a bad one, though I preferred the first movie. Also, on the whole Season 3 was significantly shorter than second. Wonder whatâs gonna happen in the next season. Â
