btw. i think leo would secretly listen to boy bands. specifically big time rush (i hold no shame here) and one direction. and i think there’s certain songs he associates with piper.

A long time ago, we used to be friends... The Veronica Mars pilot aired 20 years ago today- on the 22nd of September, 2004.

Hi so in case anyone was dying to know, this is what i think some of the cast of the terror would look like as animals :3 notes under cut

From left to right:

Crozier- Irish Terrier

Silna- Polar Bear

Goodsir- ryeland sheep (known for tasty mutton ;3)

Hickey- red fox

Franklin- old english game rooster

Fitzjames- red deer

I had fun coming up with them :) and I kinda wanna doodle some screencaps but with like a lil short sheep goodsir and his bestie the giant polar bear lady silence whom he thinks would love England. Or like hickey on his bullshit but with more flair bc he would have a fox body and tail to really fuck up that line of action

Anyways heres some closeups and sketches

Evan Buckley, a man who has always felt something missing in his life or sensed the absence of a uniquely specific form of happiness, may have actually found peace and contentment in a man who intrigues him so much that it unveiled his bisexuality. Im sorry but this is something that could never fail to peak my interest. And then there’s Tommy Kinard, a man who was once forced by his environment to shrink and conceal his true self, a man who desperately wants to belong to those who will fully accept him has now found exactly that along with a man he deeply adores and who reciprocates that affection equally. The same man who is more than eager to take life's next big steps alongside him because he wants to be with him. Why would I not be here for this? How would this put me off in any way???

"Why am I still doing this?"

"Don't you get it?"

"This is all just a show... and we're playing parts~"

Apparently, in the novel Style is already very much in love with Fadel when Kant tells him the truth (I haven't read it, though, so I could be misinformed, and apologies if I am), and I 100% get why that is appealing to a lot of people, I do!

But, damn, I LOVE that Style is on the cusp of feelings, finds out the truth, and then continues to fall headfirst in love with Fadel, despite (because???) of it. That is so my thing. That he knows this terrible truth, that he feels both scared and safe by turns with him, and he wants to know him anyway. He wants Fadel to lay himself bare for him. He wants to be his 100%. He wants to fall in love with him

And that is so beautiful to me

(I know the script isn't based on the novel btw, but reading about it spurred this post)

i think it's so interesting how different book!yassen and tv!yassen are.

first off how book!yassen sent alex to scorpia, it was a mistake because he wasn't thinking clearly. tv!yassen did it on purpose (to the best of my knowledge).

book!yassen did not want alex to kill. he tells him this twice, “killing is for grown ups.” and asking alex if he can really pull the trigger and shoot him, when alex breaks into the boat during eagle strike. going into great detail to dissuade alex from doing it, and all of me believes not just because yassen didn't want to die in this moment. this makes sense for book!yassen because he himself didn't want to kill. so he's trying to save alex from his own fate.

tv!show yassen doesn't seem to have any issues with killing. he doesn't particularly enjoy it, but it's his job and he does what he has to do so he can survive. so he's okay with encouraging alex to do it. by telling him he should view the people he's assigned to assassinate as nothing more than targets. tricking him into helping assassinate max. encouraging him to let go of his emotions. he wants alex to join him by his side.

ultimately while their methods are different, their end goals are the same. they both want to protect alex. book!yassen thinks he can achieve this by pushing alex away, and tv!show yassen thinks he can achieve this by pulling alex in closer. and both work because they're so compelling.

Do you think An's mourning went too quick?

if we consider the amount of time between lutf and oyf (a few days), then maybe. first off, you gotta consider genre and storytelling here. vbs is very shounen-like, not that i really know anything about manga but they're basically always working towards the goal, most conflicts are resolved within the event, maybe with some things lingering afterwards but the main conflict (for lutf it was obviously the truth around nagi's death) is always mostly/completely resolved.

also in terms of event pacing, the next event had to be their arc ender (both lutf and oyf are very clearly rushed but the 2nd arc enders are an issue with like 2 other units as well so this is not a vbs exclusive problem). they didn't have the time to stretch out an's grief to more events, plus there was already the in-universe issue of taiga leaving for the US like 3 days after lutf. and yes, an did have let's study hard, but that was always going to be 1-A focused since they didn't have an event yet and needed it before there was no more 1-A.

however, there are multiple card stories and area conversations that show an grieving, and we get to see this in events like break down the wall and the ending of over rad squad to some degree. obviously less intense since time has passed, but there's still an obvious impression that she's mourning nagi. also this.

and as i said earlier, maybe. people grieve differently and for different amounts of time. people will also show it differently. a few days is a bit quick, but again you can put that down to the storytelling. in this kind of game that needs to tell its story quickly you don't have that kind of time. for the type of person an is and the age she is at, i think it was handled quite realistically. i do think it was rushed, but i don't think An would spend a very long time in a state of mourning. also lutf plays with the idea that she kind of already knew. she didn't know nagi was actually dead so she couldn't experience it fully, but there was always that slight sense of anger and denial at nagi having left without saying goodbye and never once talking to her for years. she was already grieving nagi, she just never once seriously thought about the situation.

One of the changes i'm really excited about in the tv show is Grover and Annabeth's friendship. We definitely see it in the books, but the main focus is Grover and Percy. The line of: "He's my protector." "He was mine first." puts even more emphasis on what Grover and Annabeth have been through together (and they were def getting some flashbacks when Percy sacrificed himself for the two of them). I really hope to see more of Annabeth's and Grover's dynamic outside of the main trio :)

when I first watched dead boy detectives I was like "oh this is pretty cute but I'm not crazy about the writing" but the more I think about it the more I get brain worms. like. it's everything.

also. Ji Yong staring straight into the camera during the oath at the graduation ceremony with the music in the back and he is not raising his hand. he is not speaking. and he keeps staring right up until it cuts to black and you know somewhere inside you that the Vigilante has returned when i tell you i got f*cking chills. i am literally shaking rn i got D.P. s1 flashbacks

i would like to say my ideal PJO adaptation (if i was being physically forced against my will to have to pick a live action adaptation over an animated one for some reason) would be a combo like writing of the musical + casting of the show + visuals of the movies

BUT the show actually does have the playwright for the musical as one of the major writers for like three episodes and that did nothing for it. so...

when people draw murderbot as androgynous like it is described in the books instead of just defaulting to entirely masculine features: do you know I would die for you?

Rewatching Episode 8 and just noticed the shadowy figure Barb looks up at during the Vault-Tec meeting Cooper listens in on

Not sure how I missed this before but I wonder who it could be??
