i’d love to know how much of early day's spn subtext was deliberate or just a happy accident bc the subplot of 1x08 bugs is sam and dean butting heads about how they were raised and sam hating it while dean tells him he should accept it as they protect a family; predominantly a father and son

the father and son argue bc the son is different and not who the father wants him to be while the son feels ignored and shunned (aka sam). sam spends the episode empathising with him and telling him he can look forward to going to college to get away from him just like he did while dean cuts in to say he should stick with his family

the entire episode, dean defends john and the way he raised them ("maybe he needed to raise his voice but sometimes you were out of line"), it even starts with him and sam arguing over their illegal ways of making money and how they were brought up in the life; dean adapting to and enjoying it and sam wanting to be honest and straight

they talk about sam being sure john is and always has been disappointed in him just for dean to say john used to go to stanford whenever he could to check on him and something about his expression is so bitter; like he knows john would never express that care for him

but at the climax when they're trying to get matt to convince his dad to leave, sam is the one telling him to tell the truth and make his dad listen whereas dean tells him to lie; implying he wouldn't trust his son enough to believe him

he outright scoffs at sam and asks him what he was thinking for trying to get matt to tell the truth

the entire episode, dean is advocating for the kid to work it out (almost to just take it) and stay with his family but when push comes to shove, he tells him to lie

sam who spent years resenting john and his family for how they were raised, fell back on "making him listen"; echoing all the arguments he had with john, trying to force him to understand who he is while john's too blinded by vengeance to even begin to try. the same way sam refuses to see how they were raised and why they were raised that way from john’s point of view, hinting at how similar people they are (which still isn’t an excuse but also not the point rn)

dean winchester, the king of repression and masking (and fawning), dean who at this point is still staunchly defending john, tells a shunned kid with a harsh father to pretend in order for his father to care enough to listen to him and believe him

dean knows reasoning won't work bc he's watched it happen over and over again with sam and john

even the way matt tries to say, “but he’s my… (father)” feels like he’s coming over to dean’s point of view; that matt as a son respects his father to enough to tell the truth and no matter how much they’ve fought, that should trump everything. but dean still insists he lies. and matt tells the truth. and his father doesn’t listen

there's no way they intentionally made dean subconsciously know that a man raising his son in a mimicry of how john raised them wouldn't respect or trust his son enough to believe him about something potentially life threatening after half a season of john ignoring them about something potentially life threatening

right?

these are A BIT OLD but uhhh here check out these aggio doodles i did forever ago. still VERY happy w my colors :3

[orangesand-lemons-234]

anyhoo. porter x electra is pretty cool. but i think that it would be such a confusing thing to watch. nobody can tell if they love or hate each other.

in fact, only two people actually know they're a thing, and those people are wrench and lumber. electra accidentally let it slip when wrench was doing a repair job, and porter knew it was only a matter of time before lumber figured it out, so he just told him straight up.

Anyone that ships real timeline jinx and ekko but hates Caitvi for being “abusive” is a hypocrite dude

Determination became Spite because of Zara. As a spirit embodying the unwavering adherence to one's purpose, he was drawn to Lucanis' resolve to continue, to persevere, to always finish the work despite his very tangible desire to die. Determination found a kindred soul in the depths of the Ossuary, one unwilling to give in to the torture and grant their tormentors the satisfaction of success, and when forced to join, he, like Lucanis, wanted to spite her. And Spite he did by refusing to ruin his host's mind; he aided Lucanis by hiding away the worst of his memories. He was the voice that guided Lucanis through the worst days down there. Combined with the infamous endurance gained from Crow training, they survived (barely, barely, but Determination held them together and Spite kept him moving, kept him ready to kill Caliban at first opportunity) the prison until Rook came to the rescue. Spite thought finally they're free, but then he couldn't account for the ways trauma manifests in a mortal's mind, nor the time required to fully mend from an experience like that; experiences that churned up recollections from his cruel youth as well, forced to be useful or be dead. Things he refuses to face when given the news Catarina is dead. And Spite understand Lucanis needs more help. He needs to talk to people to work through the depression and PTSD, and that's why he demanded to talk to Rook. It's why he skims over other people's emotions and memories in a bid for Lucanis to understand them, to converse and share personal information. Spite isn't a malicious spirit, but it learned Lucanis only reacted to pain, loud and grating words, and throughout the beginning of the game there is this harsh dissonance between them where once was unity, one forced under extreme duress but a harmony between spirit and host regardless. Then, as time goes on, as Lucanis learns to listen to Spite more, they reach that equilibrium they had. Spite will be content, because he is a spirit of Determination willing to see this wonderful, stubborn, and kind host's life through to the end. Spite loves Lucanis, so very dearly, unconditionally, and the bond is most prominent when they're somewhere private because Lucanis is at least courteous enough not to have conversations in his head while talking to any of the companions.

weskennedy au where leon and wesker are at the same beach for windsurfing/kitesurfing/wingdinging idk which one yet and leon is, really bad at it.....

Wesker offers to teach him out of pity because its both entertaining and incredibly frustrating watching him try not to drown.

medium-warm take: genuinely concerned by all of you who didn't see anything hostile about mother goose's interaction with rapunzel (in particular the hug) from what i was watching, rapunzel was hostile from the moment tim was found alone in the kitchen, before tim even spoke. yes it was with sweet smiley words of course, but brennan was playing her as a masterful manipulator who uses charm and socializing as their weapon, something that explicitly told a couple of times leading up to this episode as rapunzel's whole schtick. tim could have found his way out of the hostility if he played his cards right, but the words weren't chosen correctly enough from the jump on ally's part watching ally fall for it in real time (with the whole 'oh she must not be a part of the plan bc of her answer to the metaphor question' 'oh i genuinely want to give her a hug' to then nobody figuring out she took the book in the hug), watching my own d20 viewing friend in real time going "aw i love rapunzel, she's just socially awkward from isolation!! why dont you trust her?", to now seeing all these posts and tags of "woahhh i wouldnt have expected rapunzel to have taken the book, i didnt think anything of that hug!!" genuinely concerns me on like, a psychological level this is how manipulators/emotionally abusive people act and speak. in our real life. this is how they take advantage of others, mentally, to get their way for their own schemes. there's many people like rapunzel and many conversations like the one she had with tim out there in our daily lives. very troubled and concerned seeing just how many people fell for it and thought nothing malicious of it

Looove feeling like a fucking child whenever I talk to kids my age ebecause I always feel like I’m either talking about my toys or like they’re better than me because I spent a majority of my childhood trying to make myself just as smart as everyone else because I genuinely thought I was stupid and didn’t deserve to live

[kucherovv]

maybe im a bit mean to americans on here sometimes. it truly is awful that you only have two parties to vote for, and as a kiwi i can't even imagine how incredibly frustrating that your only viable option is like.. that.
