INCORRECT QUOTES- kotlc

Marella: It's not like I try to blow things up, exactly. It just sort of happens. You've got to admit though, fire is fascinating.

Tam: Tommorrow's garbage day. Keefe: I can't believe they made a whole day dedicated to you.

Tam: We’re playing Scrabble. It’s a nightmare. Linh: Scrabble? Scrabble’s great. Tam: Not when you’re playing with Dex, it’s not. They put words like “ephemeral” and I put “dog.”

Sophie: Words ending in 'ie' just sound so adorable. Like cutie, sweetie, cookie- Fitz: Eyy, homie! Linh: But then there's cootie… Tam: Die. (this is so tam-)

Keefe: What is the one thing I told you not to do? Marella: Burn the house down. Keefe: And what did you do? Marella: I made dinner. Keefe: Marella: Keefe: Marella: And burnt the house down.

Sophie: Keefe, I am questioning your sanity… Dex: I never questioned it, I knew their sanity was missing from the start.

day twelve kotlc challenge

unpopular ship

I have no idea if they have a ship name or not- but Linh and Jensi.

Think about it- they both have (pretty) bright and bubbly personalities, and I reckon they would both get along pretty well. They might have met, like, once during the series, though-

another thing i'll always love abt kotlc is the way that there isnt a redemption arc for the abusers. i feel like there's too many pieces of media where the abuser is forgiven because you find out that they had good intentions or that they actually loved their victim-- but in kotlc, those aren't excuses.

you find out that linh and tam's mother misses them and regrets what she did, to the point where she becomes more forgiving and lenient; painting awkward portraits of her children because she's beginning to forget what they look like. but despite the pity, none of it is framed in a way that tries to excuse her and her husband's actions. tam and linh will always be the ones who decide whether or not to forgive them, but the narrative doesn't push the idea that they should.

it's revealed that cassius does love his son deeply, and every time he laughs and joke, a tiny part of him is happy when he sees his son smile. but instead of formulating sophie to feel bad for him, she's furious at the idea that him loving keefe will ever make up for the years of neglect his son had to go through.

it's told time and time again that gisela believes that what she's doing will be good for the world-- and therefore good for keefe. but the story doesn't even entertain the notion of understanding gisela for what she did to her child because nothing would ever justify the lies and manipulation.

i wouldnt say mr forkle is an abuser-- but i will always love how sophie never forgives him or trusts him fully. it's not even considered. yes, he did all those things for a good reason; messing with sophie's memories, making her feel alienated, giving her limbium-- but shannon never writes kotlc in a way that makes sophie feel like she should forgive forkle

She’s a ten, but when she was eleven years old, she accidentally flooded one of the biggest cities of her realm and got herself banished from her kind’s civilization.

When she was about fifteen, she also PURPOSELY flooded the capital of another species’s nation.

what do we think

[crescentpaws]

tam & linh should dye their hair rainbow for pride reblog if you agree

[sophi-aah]

DID SOPHIA JUST DO TRADITIONAL ART? yes.

I don't do it often so it's kinda messy but here :)
