"I saw ya." "'Course you did."

I love how they say so much about Ed&Izzy relationship by Ed not looking at Izzy most of the time, by Izzy being usually behind him. It's about Izzy protecting Ed, about Ed trusting Izzy, about Ed ignoring Izzy, not letting him in. It's about Izzy living in Ed's shadow, taking care of the unpleasant or boring stuff. About their power imbalance and how Izzy doesn't question it. But one interpretation I haven't seen much, is that Stede has to see Ed from the front, but Izzy sees behind.

Stede get to see what Ed wants to show him, but Izzy sees uncomfortable truth behind the "scene".

does anyone else have this thing where you "adopt" words/sentences? like you say a word and it sort of finds a way into all of your sentences afterwards for months or years?

there are two versions, just words to use, and these random impulses to say things you've heard before. I have a lot.

it's not a very big thing, but I couldn't get the thought of turtles getting (stealing most likely lol) cloaking brooches post-movie and wearing them pretty much all the time. not necessarily using the disguise, but still having them as a tool at any given moment. that seems cool... I genuinely thought that those brooches can only provide human disguises, but according to rottmnt wiki Draxum used it to turn into a. teddy bear. so that means they're capable of more than one form and?? that's so fucking interesting! what!

I'm constantly sad about rottmnt being cut short and not being able to expand on all the fun concepts and decisions in full, so such small things that give me a better understanding of mystics are my roman empire ngl. I wanna turn it in my head for a li'l bit, how long can it work for and how effective the disguises are and if you choose them yourself or if it's some kinda secret magic thing-y that you cannot control pretty much at all?? is it different for everyone and does it change with how strong mystical power of the host is? PLEASE.

i know we're long past penacony but i'll never be over how aventurine's story uses the rule of three. it's a common theme in art, i know, but we see it everywhere with him: three slots in a slot machine, three dice in his trailer, three screens behind his boss battle. but it's not just his character -- it's his entire life. three cornerstones for penacony; the three eyes of gaiathra triclops; a life in three parts (a child, a slave, and a stoneheart). the further you look into his lore, the more you notice it. everything comes in threes. except for one thing.

Mama only left us with two pieces of jewelry: A necklace and a lucky charm. There won't ever be a third piece.

and it's the one thing he values most in the world. more than wealth or luck or life, even. aventurine would trade the universe for his family. and yet, even though everything else about him works in threes, he only has two pieces of his mother's jewelry -- only two pieces by which to remember the only people that have ever really loved him. it symbolizes how his family's absence is a gaping wound in his life, one that he can never fill no matter how much wealth he accumulates. it means that his life will always feel broken and incomplete and wrong, and he knows this. he's aware of the irony of it all, because he points out that there won't ever be a third piece. he realizes what he lacks, what he can never get back, what he'll continue to miss for the rest of his life.

what must it be like to know you'll never feel whole again ...?

maybe I'm overthinking things, but whenever I see people talking about significant/transformative moments in tianshan's relationship (barring their fight, the kiss, the ear piercing, etc.), I'm always a little disappointed no one points out the scene where the boys are going through the cardboard boxes of random things from he tian's childhood and he tian says something to the effect of, "the entire world is out there but everything I've ever owned only fits in these two boxes" and then he discreetly places his hand palm-up between him and guan shan. and guan shan pauses for a moment before placing his glass in his hand. and then the chapter ends.

this moment is one of the few panels I've saved over the years:

like... it's short but there's so much emotion behind this scene, it's hard for me to put it into words succinctly. and it stands out to me because it's not particularly intense or climatic like their other big moments. it happens soon after she li assaulted guan shan on the riverbank — which was heavy on the drama and ultimately the catalyst for tianshan's relationship. he tian had also just been financially cut off from his family and guan shan had been physically and emotionally vulnerable/exhausted for some time. basically, things were still raw and hectic for both of them in different ways

so this quiet, subdued, and wordless interaction between them on the balcony was very interesting. I honestly think it's one of the first instances in which tianshan have a personal/intimate mutual understanding of one another without an outside force influencing it or the moment being interrupted. and somehow, it's both abnormal and very fitting that he tian didn't make a grand gesture in this moment. like, if you think about it, he simply turned his hand on the cushion and looked at guan shan. it wasn't obvious; he wasn't making a scene. but of course guan shan, hyperaware of him, noticed

and the fact that the chapter ends after that also stands out to me. again, if he tian was being his normal self, he probably would've said/complained outright that he obviously wanted guan shan to give him his hand, not his glass, or he probably would've grabbed guan shan's hand as he was placing the glass down because he tian always just takes what he wants and tames guan shan's defiance or embarrassment after the fact

but instead, the chapter ends. and it doesn't even feel abrupt, really. it feels complete. and it makes me assume that he tian accepted the glass as guan shan's response and didn't press the issue. he might've just held onto the glass in his lap (or drank from it while maintaining eye contact) and then moved his attention back to the group at large. and, again, that's both abnormal and fitting for him in this scene

and I know I just said "guan shan's response" but what's frustrating — and fascinating! — is that I've yet to come to a definitive conclusion about what the (unspoken) question/response between them was to begin with. of course, he tian had just finished talking about the paradoxical state of his life — about how he could have everything and yet he has next to nothing — so maybe his "question" for guan shan was as simple as: "even if I don't have/want anything else, can I at least have you?"

but I also think it's interesting to consider that jian yi immediately laughed at he tian after he finished talking, accusing him of being dramatic (and in jian yi's defense, he'd never really seen an honest version of he tian like guan shan had at that point, so I don't blame him for thinking he tian was just being melodramatic for attention as per usual). anyway, jian yi and zheng xi got a good chuckle out of it, but guan shan didn't. iirc, he actually looked a bit lost in thought before he noticed he tian looking at him, and then his hand between them

with that small detail, it makes me think he tian's question leaned more toward: "do you believe me?" or maybe "do you understand me in the ways I want you to?"

I'd like to think he tian wouldn't have offered his hand if guan shan had also rolled his eyes with zhanyi — poor little rich boy — and dismissed what he'd said. but then again, with the state of their situation/relationship at that point, I don't think there was a chance in hell that guan shan would've dismissed him. I'm sure we can all agree that he tian's intense emotional response to finding guan shan injured and subsequently taking care of him without expecting anything in return drastically changed guan shan's perspective of him. guan shan had a lot to process at that point in the manhua, and a lot of hard truths to start acknowledging. it was clear that he tian had a lot on his mind during that time, too

so guan shan placing the glass in he tian's palm might've been him saying, "I'm still figuring this (us) out... but my answer isn't no" (hence the reason why he tian presumably didn't push the issue further bc he was more cognizant of guan shan's boundaries by this point) or it might've been him saying, "yeah, I'm starting to understand you, and you're not what I thought you were but that's not scaring me away" (therefore affirming he tian's question so he didn't feel the need to pursue the moment or make a bigger scene)

in any case, although there's no continuation after that scene, I think they were both satisfied by the end of the evening. I don't think he tian was disappointed by guan shan's response, and guan shan would've known that too. in fact, I'd argue that guan shan wanted to reaffirm he tian's emotions in that moment. the worst (yet easiest) thing guan shan could've done is look at him, look at his hand, and then look away and ignore him — literally leaving him empty-handed. that would've left he tian in a sour fucking mood... or at least a bit wounded

but instead, guan shan chose the more honest/reciprocal route even if he wasn't 100% sure yet. and... I don't know. it really stands out to me and I think a lot more was happening in that interaction than what could've been expressed in words. and yet I've literally never seen anyone talk about that scene since it was posted — which, fair enough. it's only a couple of panels. but I think about it constantly!

I'm thinking about Gillian Taylor, lesbian (in my heart), standing on that stolen bird-of-prey on their way back to the 23rd century, and trying to figure out the correct way to (tactfully) ask if Kirk and Spock are gay.

Back in the 80s, she'd just assumed that they were gay. I mean, dressed like that? She'd also, however, assumed that they were on drugs, probably a hallucinogen of some kind, which - turned out to be not quite true. So, really, anything was fair game, now, and she no longer knew if they were gay. Maybe that's just how men in the 23rd century were with each other.

She tried to watch, to analyze their actions objectively, but with how busy they were making sure that the ship didn't explode, they weren't really interacting all that closely with one another, and she truly couldn't tell.

So instead she just stood there, next to Admiral Kirk, trying to find the right words to use, words which wouldn't be heard as an insult if she was wrong or if the 23rd century was no more enlightened about these sorts of things.

And then Dr. McCoy walked in and, casual as you please, said, "Jim, where the devil has your husband run off to?"

Husband. He said the word so easily, like it was - normal. Like it was safe and accepted, for a man, an admiral, even, to be gay. He didn't even glance at Gillian as he said it, never even seemed to consider that someone might react poorly. Maybe no-one ever did, in the 23rd century.

Everything sort of faded out of focus for Gillian, after that. She didn't hear another peep until McCoy, concerned, put his hand on her shoulder, and asked if she was alright.

She just smiled in response and told him that, yes, she was doing very well.

Because if Admiral Kirk could have a husband... that meant that she could have a wife.

Oh yes, she thought she'd be quite happy in the 23rd century.
