Funniest making of video Rammstein moments?
Well this got... Comprehensive. It devolved somewhat as it got to videos I don't care about as much. This is not what you were expecting, I'm sure, but you asked so please be polite and read it. It's like 2/3 from memory so I'm sure I missed just the funniest thing that's ever been in one. Such is life.
P*ssy (let's see if this work of art gets into the tags):
Schneider being a nasty bastard rat man with his leg drumming
Everything Flake says. All of it.
Richard talking about his double, holding his hands about a foot apart
The hoover
Schneider's little kick at the camera because he's 18 years old at most
Das ist ein Bordell?
The little grass song
Schneider trying not to show that the thinks it's 'absolutely stupid'
Flake don't do anything
Their little weirdo best friend hang out warmups
Rosenrot:
Till practicing the murder scene
Paul singing the Rosenrot guitars as he learns how to flagellate himself. This is one of my fave things why does nobody talk about it?
Till saying he wants to make friends too
Till peeping out of the hood asking why(?) he needs make up
Can we count Richards hat and Flakes hair
Richard asking if they should have knives and won't they kill him?
OLI WITH THE WINE UP HIS SLEEVE. It's the funniest thing I've ever seen no matter how many times I see it.
Everything Flake says
Till, don't defend yourself. Richard, let someone else beat the devil out of Till!
The silence after Flake says he doesn't like pain as much as Till
Sonne:
Talking about how they had to make Paul bigger to play a dwarf
Flake talking about them wanting to name the album Herzeleid and then realising there was, unfortunately, already an album called Herzeleid and they're the ones who made it
Did the American tour influence this album? Nope!
Everyone's reaction to the spanking scene
Robert
When Paul feels the Cain Instinct rising and flings the food at Till, Schneider looking on to see his reaction instead of stopping Paul
Mutter:
No :(
Radio:
Mit seinem Mündchen, so spitz!!!
The little opera battle at the end
The fact that it hasn't got subtitles (though I'd rather it did)
Ausländer:
Schneider's dancing
Till saying the actress could like, permanently kick his arse
Schneider and Oli falling over.
Paul with the tusk
Jeez Schneider's dancing though how is he so many contrary things?
Till trying so so hard not to look at the actress' breasts while she's talking (does anyone know her name I feel gross just saying the actress). He does, but he tried.
Mein Land:
Paul and his pale, delicate Berlin skin
The way it cuts from the beach to Flake in his night makeup, which to me feels like they're implying it's his regular everyday look
Flake not super wanting to be there
The dancing. The only time I'm truly reminded of their ages is when I see them dance.
Richard hugging Jonas, just because of the way he flings himself. I bet he runs up to people and jumps, assuming they'll catch him.
Haifisch:
Paul's little blink thing
...Richards hair.
Till dressed as snow white, spanking what would be Paul
Flake being an amphibian
Richard going off track to mention a woman with 'huge jugs'
Stripped:
Down to the booonnneeee
Ich Tu Dir Weh:
fleischfarrrrrrrrrbenen Drrrrrrrraht lang legst. His speech is so rounded, like the bubble writing every teenaged girl uses on posters
The whole mouth piercing story, really. I don't think it's as big of a deal as they do though? It was bigger than a standard piercing and he wasn't very smart about it but it was pretty much just a cheek piercing he treated poorly, he didn't remove a limb. I used to spray stuff when I had a lip piercing so that's just understandable, relatable content.
Ziggy Stardust
Flake saying he's being slandered
Paul's face the entire time he talks about the trucks
Mann Gegen Mann:
Is it weird that I think Schneider's lil drumming noises are funny in the background? They're so small.
Benzin:
Oli really doesn't look like Oli in the truck this isn't funny but that was a strange time huh
The guy losing his mind over the crash scene.
Richards driving face. I remember seeing it as a kid and it was just as funny then. Or maybe that's why I think it's funny
You're the driver, you can't be lying out there!
Keine Lust:
Flake wishing he could be that fat
His safely saddled pirouette
The boys cackling at each other when they see the make up and prosthetics
Schneiders giggle when he says it's his idea. Okay so this is more cute than funny, but have you ever noticed that he doesn't really have a medium laugh? It's either a polite huff or an avalanche of hysterical giggles
Schneider looking at himself in the mirror so seriously idk it just is funny
Paul singing in the makeup chair
Till getting into his suit
Schneider's face is falling to pieces but that's irrelevant!
Schneider peeling himself. Hallo!
Ohne Dich:
Flake insulting Till, Till saying he's going to really make him sweat because of how rude he was. Paul taking the piss out of Flake in the interview.
Did you expect me to run with you? How did you arrive at that?
Tills little mm after he says the sweat thing
He's alive, Schneider, come make it a trio!
Tills small mountain song
Amerika:
Okay mini rant time please bear with me I need to get this out. That guy when Till is getting taped into the astronaut gear? He told Till the Donald Sutherland penis zip story, yet when Till talks about it (using the name, pointing to his dick and zipping) the guy looks completely clueless. It's so American? How could he not get that that's the story Till was telling? Anyway it's funny because he zipped the penis of Donald Sutherland with it so... His boss, his boss did.
Again, everything Flake says. The urinals!
Paul saying their message is Fleisch, Fleisch and Ja and Ich Will, but Amerika was being so annoying that they had to make an exception
Richard with the arcade machine
The director says it's hard for them to play double speed because it's like a punk concert. They... They were all in punk bands. Maybe not Oli (I have no idea what his band was, someone said folk fusion to me once?) but the rest of them?
Paul's little history lesson in his lil nerd outfit
Rammstein created the conspiracy theory that America never went to the moon
Richard re: 10 litres of orange juice
America doesn't exist in East Germany. Why does every country have one country people think doesn't exist? Finland is a popular choice.
Mein Teil:
Moustache.
Schneider's giggling over being the perpetrators mother. Why was he so excited/embarrassed to pretend to be Armin Meiwes' mother?
Stop complaining!
Paul stomping on the suit. Am I just easily amused?
Schneider will just be a bit more woman
Oli's freaky faces
Flake talking about Swedish TV
Mein Herz Brennt:
Till trying to be diplomatic about the Spanish schedule. At least the walls were burning!
Paul being a nasty little thief
The cones.
Paul's reaction to the cones. The giggles.
Till talking to the child!
Oli with the kids when he's in his net. You know what meme that's like, fishermen talking and one gets caught in the net and they're like is it just me or is Dave being hot right now? Yeah that's all I can think then I see his net.
Paul talking about the captive costumes and shouting at Schneider through the cone
Richard having dreadlock flashbacks
The. Finger monster thing where it's like Ta Da
Feuer Frei:
Paul Kebab
Homemade Star Trek video. Paul, please dig it out.
Ich Will:
Paul in the corridor
I really like the way Paul says DDR. Its not funny, I just need to point it out I am legally obligated. Small and cute little country
Paul talking about the cameras killing them and being dramatic
Flake talking about being popular in Iceland
Mein Ohr!
Links 234:
Are there subtitles because of the accent?
That's it, I don't like this one very much at all
Du Hast:
When they forget to tell the fire boy he can cool off
Engel:
Schneider: Paul was upset we tucked him away behind the drums where he could do nothing, he loves meddling and offering his opinion
Paul: *rants about everything wrong with the video* (Paul is correct in every criticism)
Du Riechst So Gut 98:
Till being shy kissing a woman is very funny to me
Seeman:
All of it. The hair, the set, the costumes. Everything. Their reactions to all of those things. What on earth.
Poor Paul talking about the haircuts as if he's ever had more than one decent haircut in his life. Two at most.
Till seems content with it but maybe he's just being diplomatic.
Schneider, me and Oli just fool around in the background and crowd the picture with too many people
B... Bird head. Plague doctor.
Du Riechst So Gut 95:
I love how they talk about it but even though the video itself is super funny, the making of? Not so much.
Schneider saying they wanted to appear aggressive and masculine, screen cuts to what is essentially a gay p*rno/tampon advert
Of course, we had to rub oil into out bodies. Of course.
Till talking about how he layered sunglasses and got the slashes metal things to help. Is it funny or am I just tired now?
Rammstein (I always forget this exists, it's so hard to find it):
Ah yes, first video, let's ask David Lynch. Why not?
#man is till cute in thr benzin interview#my one regret is being too small to lend him my hoodie and or t shirt#rammstein#flake is cute in the keine lust making of look at his hair and lil hat#me rambling#did#schneider tuck for mein teil#i censored myself and itll probably still not work brcause penis is in here#meh probably a good thing

Winx Club Season 2 Thoughts (4kids) Part 1
I already posted some thoughts on season 2 last year when I legit just clicked through he episodes rather than actually rewatching them so I am back to give a more in-depth look on this season! (And, hopefully, it won’t end with disappointment for me.)
2x01:
- Eww, why voiceover? It just seems so unnatural since we’ve never had it before. Not to mention that Bloom told us what each of the other girls has done during the summer but she didn’t tell us anything about herself. Like, she set out to find out more about her origins back in the first half of season 1, and I know that she did learn about being the princess of Domino but she still has no fucking idea who her parents are as individuals apart from them being the rulers of Domino. Considering how big of a plot that is later on, it just doesn’t sit right with me that she doesn’t seem remotely interested in it currently and didn’t mention anything about it. It’s like that plotline is closed for her which we all know is not true. So I am having some issues here, not gonna lie (not with Bloom but with her inconsistent writing).
- Aww, am I the only one who thinks that Stella buried herself in fashion rules all summer because she didn’t want to think about her parents’ divorce? Poor baby has been going so hard with no rest to keep herself from grieving over it. But at least she did something! (Proving she’s not lazy and spoiled; she practically had a job. Her dream job. You go get it, girl! (but also take care of your mental state, please.))
- Why is Bloom so eager to learn her fortune? Has she not read Greek Mythology? Bad idea, hon. Bad idea. (The thing with the magical reality mirrors was cool, though!)
- (Is that a new secret library or is it the regular library? I’m confused. Does anybody have a handy layout of Alfea for me?)
- She just fucking told her everything! I’m not a fan of knowing your future tbh. It really messes with your head and you start thinking “Will my actions have a negative impact on it? Will I somehow change my own destiny for the worse?” and then you go and do exactly that. Not to mention that it would be so weird to stare at Layla and just feel the pressure of being told that you’ll be best friends. Like, what if it doesn’t work? And what if it is just the fact that you were told so that pushes you to seek the friendship of that person? I don’t know. It’s just not my thing.
- Layla is awesome, though! Climbing those rocks with no equipment, not to mention with so little power left. She probably couldn’t even transform and fly if she fell. That was dangerous but did she care? Nope. She was there to save the pixies! Brave little soldier. Too good, too pure for this world.
- Ugh, Darkar managed to annoy me with his very first sentence ever. Nice job. You are a loser, loser. So deal with it! God, how will I take all that narcissism for 25 more episodes? Oh god, oh no, please, no! Whyyyyyyyy?
- Ugh, Bloom, that diadem is doing the opposite of wonders for your hair, please! At least Stella had the common sense to remove it.
- Speaking of Stella, that moment with the multiplying beauty was so cute! I love how she complimented the others while complimenting herself! But guys (Stella & Bloom), you’re not discreet with the groping. Seriously.
- Oh, hey! Riven won! And Sky only came in third! Nice! But lbr here, Timmy is the real victor! The others came in on hoverbikes while he had an entire ship that he modified himself. I mean, idk about anyone else, but I would definitely go for the ship.
- Of course there’s Diaspro drama. God, can they not for literally five seconds? And also, “we’re just friends”? Wtf? Did you fall on your head this summer, Bloom? You were calling him your boyfriend last time I checked. And you were fawning over the romance in your future. Can you just drop the pretense already?
- Ooh, Layla is so smart! She managed to outsmart all the monsters and win even when she barely had any magic left! You go, you absolute badass!
- Did they even make any changes on that new wing at Alfea? I mean, besides the name.
2x02:
- How did Tecna know that Layla was the princess of Andros? Did she hack the interdimensional FBI system? Wtf.
- They could’ve showed some other things we hadn’t seen that Layla had to go through but, of course, why would they do that when they could just use the same footage and draw less animation, bruh?
- And we’re getting to the opposites. Right on schedule when the Shadow Phoenix has shown up. You gotta love how convenient those school lessons are (not to mention that Bloom suddenly started feeling her opposite out of nowhere. Nice!) At least we got a cool magical lesson. Though, idk how to feel about the ying-yang symbol. I mean, it is a perfect representation of what they’re talking about but kind of weird to see something so earthly in Alfea. Though, Earth did have magic so... Hmm. Okay, anyway. Moving on.
- Um, question, why do Stella and Layla not know each other? And in the first season Stella and Musa and Sky didn’t know each other even though they were all royalty (I am still unclear on whether Musa is a princess or not btw but anyway). Don’t they, like, have royal meetings with other kingdoms? (which they even did in season 5 when Domino was back. What, is Domino the center of the universe and they can’t function without it? I mean, come on!)
- The talk about love is getting on my nerves and I literally have “love” in my url and it is my fave word. So what is wrong with that? I do love that guard there. Heck, yeah, it’s a prison (it’s worse than that tbh). And the fact that they’re trying to make it out not to be is extremely fucked up and sickening if you ask me. Not to mention “You can force people to be happy. It just takes time.” I really hope whoever had the idea of that place (in-verse) is going to hell.
- They legit just kept recapping season 1 for a solid minute? Aaaaaaaand... SKIP.
- Can I say that a 30-page report is an actual living nightmare. Thanks.
- The girls are all friendly with Layla (well, outside of a slip-up or two). That’s cute. But where the hell is Tecna? Can the animators only animate five Winx girls at a time? What the hell, you guys?
- So the Pixie village is on Andros (if Layla found it accidentally. I don’t imagine she realm-hopped at will)? Why don’t I remember any of that? But hey, finally some flashbacks that we haven’t seen before!
- Oh, look! My guy Kerborg is here! (the only good part of this whole Darkar thing tbh)
- The Trix finally thought of trying to pretend to be happy in order to get out of there. Well, better late than never. Though, watching how it’s going I can understand why they didn’t try before that. It is, in fact, hopeless. (But at least Darcy is handling it! She always was a bit more controlled.)
- I am so majorly creeped out by Darkar. He just met them and he’s like “You belong to me! Mwahahahaha.” Ummmm? Can you calm down? But I loved Icy’s response. Though, it didn’t stick. And he’s at it again. Seriously, this is really giving me some major off vibes. He said they were going to be the queens of Shadowhaunt which, considering he’s the king, would imply they were his wives. Now there’s a mental image that I am not even going to let inside my head, thanks. Although, having in mind that he just kept buttering them up, I would say it was just him stroking their egos to get them to join him. Not to mention that his later treatment of them supports that theory. And of course, he had to test them first and see how they’d do.
2x03:
- Please, tell me that they’ll tell someone about the Pixies and won’t just go to Shadowhaunt on their own initiative.
- O!M!G! They actually told Faragonda! I can’t believe this! Finally doing something smart, I can’t! And of course she wasn’t going to just let them go. Though, did she really think they weren’t going to want to take the test?
- Shouldn’t Stella be weakened by the darkness of Shadowhaunt? I kinda wish she’d stayed at Alfea if that would’ve spared us from the arc that is coming. (Why?)
- Okay, but it was kind of rude of Layla to just overtake Riven’s hoverbike like that. I wouldn’t appreciate it if I had to give someone a ride and they shoved me out of the driver’s seat and occupied my car, thank you. I’m surprised Riven agreed to let her drive.
- I don’t really have much to say about this episode tbh.
- It was cute that Stella jumped off the cliff for Brandon but it was not the smartest course of action. It probably would’ve been easier for him to save himself if he was alone and they may not have ended up being brought to Amentia. God, I hate this. I don’t want to be bitching about this every other sentence so just know that I absolutely despise this arc from the very bottom of my heart and that will never change.
2x04:
- They have no powers and Darkar knows they’re there. Sounds like a great situation, doesn’t it?
- That amazing moment when you either have to marry a person you’ve just met or watch the one you love die and then be forced to get married anyway. You gotta love that! I hate this so much! (And this is different from my previous point. Or at least has a different angle.)
- Wow, Riven is absolutely handling being a boyfriend. Somebody get him a manual, the man is failing spectacularly.
- I am not quite a fan of Flora’s “Must be nice to have a shoulder to cry on”. Like, you have your friends???? No, I get that she wants a boyfriend, nothing wrong with that, but it came out like she has nobody. Which is absolutely not true.
- What a lucky save that Stella just arrived when they were about to become toast. Can anyone tell me why she didn’t just teleport them where the Pixies are? Or anywhere closer to them if she could do that all along?
- Am I distracted or is there nothing to talk about in these episodes? (Both. It is both.)
2x05:
- Seriously, why didn’t they at least mention the option to teleport using that gadget from the beginning?
- Aww, Brandon was trying to be noble and get out of the marriage but it backfired. Poor him.
- Why are the Pixies bickering like that? Is it Shadowhaunt’s influence or just the fact that they’d been imprisoned together for so long?
- Wait, did they just... kill a pixie? (Off screen of course, but still. Damn!)
- So Bloom and Stella did... interestingly with the boarding.
- Why is Stella afraid of heights? Also, that’s never been mentioned before. Especially not when she jumped off a fucking cliff! Wtf. They just keep throwing in new stuff without setting it up properly and I am getting annoyed.
- What happened to Tecna’s computer?
- Oh, look! Chatta lied to Darkar to protect Pixie Village.
- It’s the Trix! Finally some action! And they are harder to defeat now that they’re stronger! Nice!
- Damn! Layla was really determined to get the Pixies out of there. (Which wouldn’t have helped if Darkar hadn’t let her but she still gets points for trying.)
- Oh come on! Do I really have to deal with fake Avalon so early in the season?!?!?! Dammit! Also, wtf is up with Bloom and Stella? Like, you both have boyfriends. At least Layla’s not affected.
- “Stella returned a compliment. What is that about?” XDDD One of the funniest lines ever! And look at Amore! She is so cute!
2x06:
- But yeah, seriously, just go get Brandon, please! (Also, good that they noticed something’s fishy.)
- Aww, Stella is absolutely furious and determined to get her boyfriend back. She should’ve gone for a plan tbh since it could’ve helped them get to the palace faster.
- I love how Stella’s known Layla for a week (half of which Layla was unconscious) tops and is already making her her bridesmaid. Am I the only one who finds this weird? Like, this friendship train is moving way too fast for my trust issues.
- Poor Brandon. She’s going to stretch him, wtf? These episodes are a horror show.
- How bad can a guard worm be? Hm, gee, I don’t know, Layla. Enough to stop you perhaps since it is a “guard”, y’know.
- And Brandon is talking to a parrot now. I am losing it just like he is. How much longer will this torture go on? Please, tell me this arc is coming to an end.
- Okay, so the plotline with Amore’s magic is less problematic than I remember it. I thought she was going to make Amentia fall in love with the flower pollen but it only leads you to your soulmate. That isn’t problematic, actually. Nice!
- Wtf do you mean they’re going to eat Brandon if he’s not a good husband?!?!?! I am getting nightmares over here. Just feeling them forming in my head. Thanks.
- It must be horrible for Stella to be standing there and watching her boyfriend being forced to marry another woman. How are these people not psychologically scarred anyway?
- Aww, they’re back together! I love how Amore is just sitting in Stella’s lap! It’s cute.
2x07:
- I was not ready for the Kiko angst even though I knew it was coming.
- Faragonda really thought she could just dodge that question without them noticing, huh? Yeah, well, no.
- Oh, look! The Shadow Fire is sentient. This reminds me of LotR tbh but anyway, moving on. So Darkar is a man who is possessed by the Shadow Fire? I so did not remember that.
- Oh, no! Is it really time for Avalon already? Dammit! I was just getting thrilled there was no Darkar in these last two episodes and now I get Avalon. Uggggh.
- I get Bloom’s annoyance with this but why does she keep blasting it when that obviously doesn’t give results?!?!?! This reminds me of that quote by Einstein that madness is doing the same thing and expecting different results. “I feel tired.” You think? You’ve been out there blasting that thing for hours. Get inside and get warmed up, oh my god! Seriously, how are they even alive? They don’t take care of themselves at all.
- This might be my more advanced knowledge of what the future holds for them speaking but I absolutely do not get what is Avalon’s appeal.
- Oh, how convenient. He’s teaching magic connected to their origins. Amazing.
- “I don’t want to seem obsessive” *proceeds to spy on girlfriend* At least the show is framing it well.
2x08:
- Ugh, I really hate these Bloom and Avalon scenes. They just leave a bad taste in my mouth.
- Ugh, I’m gagging at Bloom’s obsession with Avalon. I get he promised to help her learn about her origins but she’s downright lovesick. I am so with Sky on this and I understand his frustration.
- Aww, Brandon immediately revealed his own nickname to help Stella calm down. That was so cute! I love them!
- I love how the fairies are always invited, of course, but the witches are only invited because they helped. I mean, yeah, they do cause trouble, but like, they’re witches? I think the show should have done a better job at specifying what exactly being a witch is because currently it’s like “hey, they’re evil but they can legally learn how to be evil in the legitimate school for witches!” How does that make any sense?
- Ewww, seriously? On the one front I have Bloom and Avalon and on the other Icy and Darkar. What is wrong with this season?
- Oh, hey! It’s Helia! Now only if we didn’t have to wait half a season for Flora to confess her feelings, that would be great! I love how she got mad at Stella for introducing herself to Helia. Don’t just glare there, Flora. Do something about it! (About Helia, I mean.)
- So Saladin is also a dramatic bitch. Good to know. XD But hey, the new Red Fountain looks so much better. Before I started the rewatch, I didn’t even remember the initial vision. I only remembered the one from season 2 onwards.
- Poor Timmy! But what was Tecna’s problem? Like, you dreamed of him. That’s cool. I mean, you like him. What’s the problem? I guess she’s just not used to emotions like that, though.
- “I think it was Darcy” Jeez, really? Why is the fact that she ran away not enough proof that it was Darcy? Why would she run away if she was just a random girl? But I guess it’s a good thing Musa recognized her voice because people can actually do that unlike what movies would have you believe.
- It’s Kerborg time. Nice!
- Oh, yeah, “let’s leave Bloom and Sky in charge here”. Now you trust her. Last time she was there he blamed everything on her but hey, whatever.
- I loved Sky being supportive of Brandon and then the team up with all the rest. And Riven showing a better side of himself. That was really awesome.
- Oh, I think Helia’s got his eye on a certain fairy too! ;)
- But seriously. Literally an entire army of Specialists can’t hold the monster down while Helia did it on his own. With his glove. Wtf?!?!?!?! Though really, why am I expecting anything to make sense at this point.
2x09:
- Okay, but as annoying as Darkar is, he at least knows how to steer the witches to do exactly what he wants.
- Really, Tecna, I think your facts are wrong. You aren’t completely grown up at 16, wtf.
- Who else is completely creeped out by Avalon? He really just gave all of his very female and very young students flowers. And he’s teaching them all individual things (which is just a cover so that his interest in Bloom doesn’t stand out, of course, but still). He knows they are all crushing on him and he’s exploiting that and doing his best to lead them on and reinforce those emotions. That is absolutely disgusting, thank you.
- Seriously, even Faragonda is falling victim to his “charm” (not)? I can’t with this episode anymore and it has just started. And here I thought Darkar would be the problem of this season. How was I so wrong????????
- Oh, he wants them to trust him as much as they trust themselves? How about they throw you off a cliff instead? Oh, wait, that won’t work because he has wings. Crush him with a boulder then? (This is getting very anti Avalon and I am so sorry for all the negativity but I don’t think I can stress enough how much this is upsetting and angering me.)
- Why do I feel like Avalon is the one who planted the book there so that Tecna could do all of that and embarrass herself so that she wouldn’t try it again and he could proceed with his real plans?
- Well, we finally got Bloom’s parents’ names and a very unclear peek at them. Though, props for having their designs figured out from the beginning, though I guess that is just thanks to the comics.
- Oh, hey! Palladium is back. (Why is no one crushing on him? He is so much better and more handsome than Avalon tbh.) Glow up time, bitches. XD
- Amaryl is being Amaryl, of course. But Palladium is having none of it anymore. And he saved Stella. Nice!
- The others trust Tecna, that’s great!
- (Honestly, Griffin is the only thing saving me from losing my mind in this episode tbh, Also the fact that she believes Tecna and that Tecna was suspicious enough to dig in the first place. At least someone hasn’t lost their common sense.)
- Oh, hey, how did Bloom get that medallion? Did she pull it out of the past? Pls, tell me that’s not what happened. It can legit mess the entire timeline.
- Wait, didn’t they start chasing him before midnight? Why is it suddenly morning? Wtf? You can’t tell me they chased him all night. Why is everything so wrong?
- Poor Wizgiz! Another invention is destroyed. I feel his pain.
- At least all parts of the episode came together nicely. The writing was actually good but I absolutely hate this episode, thanks! I still appreciate the effort with the script, though.
2x10:
- Seriously, why did Bloom instantly decide that Diaspro was involved in this? Ugh. Both she and Sky need to calm down with the jealousy.
- Omg, Griselda is so savage, I can’t! Her magic is so awesome. (Since when is Stella up for cooking? Or was it just because she wanted to see the cute guy that would teach them cooking? Ah, and she’s tired of take out.) I really loved how she used different methods to deal with the different powers of the fairies. Finally we’re getting all the magical lessons and it is absolutely glorious.
- (Btw, seeing Stella openly critique classes schedule makes it clear to me why she’s always been my favorite. That is such a me thing to do. I still can’t understand how teachers liked me since I was always arguing with them.)
- Of course. Sky wants to talk and Bloom immediately decided he wanted to break up with her. Why don’t you hear him out first maybe? (Sidenote: Stella and Brandon went on a date with unicorns? That is really cute!)
- Brandon is in his role of the wingman again. Considering he’s the only one having a steady girlfriend (and they’ve said “I love you” already), the rest should just listen to him.
- Mayhem globe? That’s really cool actually.
- Helia is here. Nice!
- Poor Stormy. She looked really hurt. I thought Darcy was the one with the illusions and riddles. Why did she get it wrong and why was Icy the one to solve it (through a detail that not only has never been shown but has been pretty much disproven by what we’ve seen)?
- Yeah. Tecna and Timmy were also knocked out, Bloom. Just in case you care about that.
- Kindness spell? And non-agression spell? That’s kinda cool actually. But problematic... again.
- I am not quite sure what Bloom did but I am actually glad to see they went with a hug there (and it was cute). But how many times are they going to become a boyfriend and a girlfriend? I thought we were over this.
2x11:
- Brandon is at it again. A true specialist... in dating tips. XD
- Wow, Flora. Nice Helia spell you got there. (Btw I am so loving that we get to see them in different classes and learning things! Yes, this is what I’m here for!) But Layla was so ready to help! And I also love that Flora went to Layla instead of anyone else. It’s really cute that they got so close so fast. (��He’s crazy if he doesn’t like you.” Perhaps Layla is the one who likes Flora. XD)
- Shoulda listened to Brandon, Timmy. (But Tecna so boldly went for the “us”. You go, girl!)
- Idk but to me “The Archaic Spells of Spheria” doesn’t sound any good tbh.
- Of course Stella is all about the romantic movies. But poor pixies. They had to imprison them to save them.
- Why did all of the boys know about the Codex in the previous ep but the girls have no clue about it? Why is Faragonda keeping it from them if everyone at Red Fountain knows about it?
- What was Faragonda doing? And why did she make Bloom look for the spell? Couldn’t she do that herself? (Also, she just threw the book like that on the floor. I get why it prompted her derision but damn, really?)
2x12:
- Flora and Helia are such romantic dorks. And they’re bringing their A game there. Poems and flowers... A beautiful romance blooms. (I’ll stop now.)
- This convergence talk is giving me all the friendship feels. Not just for Winx but also for Faragonda and Griffin since they have been spotted doing convergence too. Ugh, my heart!
- Wow, Riven sure has a lot of pictures of Musa, considering the way he’s acting.
- “Kind of involved”? Mhm, sure.
- So I understand Musa’s frustration with Stella’s meddling but on the other hand I can see Stella’s point. I love Musa x Riven but Riven doesn’t seem exactly present and Musa herself stated that she’s not really sure what the status of their relationship is so...
- Okay, but there is no way in hell that it is Darcy’s birthday. It is fall currently and Darcy’s birthday is May 5 according to Wiki. So yeah, no.
- I am getting a bit sidetracked again but can we talk about the fact that Bloom and Stella couldn’t do convergence after a simple disagreement even though they’re together like 24/7 while Griffin and Faragonda managed to do it seamlessly at the end of season 1 after not speaking to each other for years and kind of getting into a fight the last time they spoke at the Day of the Royals. Friendship goals (well, besides the silent treatment.)
- Okay but I think it wasn’t right to blame Stella. She didn’t say anything that was inherently offensive. She suggested that they try to get closer. That isn’t bad even if it upsets someone indirectly. There was no need to blame her. They should’ve just focused on making Layla feel better.
- Why do I feel like none of them really had friends before they found each other? But hey, they are this big found family now and that is awesome! (I am getting all the feels again.)
- And Darcy is messing up the magical reality chamber again. Didn’t we do that already? Also, why didn’t they try to... idk, take precautions and put better security on it considering how dangerous it can be? Like, those are simple things. Please, be responsible.
- Better not play Truth or Dare with Stella. Unless you wanna be kissing ogres. XD
- That was a good save Layla pulled off there. Also, I love how the girls are mad at the “technical” issues. Tbh they are right to. How many times are they gonna get stuck in the wrong world when sent into the magical reality chamber? Like, get your shit together teachers. Also, why don’t they simply do a test run before they get anyone inside it? You’d think they’d learn their lesson.
- Damn, they can be deleted if the program is turned off? Why didn’t Darcy just have Jarred unplug it then? Winx are erased forever. Boom, problem solved. For the Trix, I mean.
- Aww, the pixies were ready to go in. That was cute.
- I LOVED that convergence! It was such a cool idea to have them make a figure. Also, they just created life. Damn! I am impressed.
2x13:
- Poor Layla. She has all those nightmares. But at least Piff helps! That’s really cute.
- I see Flora still hasn’t solved the Helia problem yet.
- They just ditched school to go to a club. What chaotic dumbass energy, I can’t.
- Aww, Layla is sharing about her harsh childhood. At least she has friends she can talk to now. But damn the difference between Andros and Solaria is very striking in scenes like that.
- Layla totally nailed that improv. Nice, you go, girl!
- I love the difference between Griselda and Faragonda! XD
- I loved that convo between Bloom and Vanessa! Yes, thank you for that. I am a little confused as to when Bloom learned Daphne was her sister. Did I miss something or did the writers miss something? But aww, Vanessa can’t see Locket. That’s making me sad. :(
- They did go to the club, though, huh? Nice one, you guys.
- How will Faragonda learn if they use magic on humans but not otherwise? That doesn’t sound very logical to me. (Speaking of logic, where is Tecna? They didn’t show her in this ep.)
- Oh, no! Poor Layla. But damn, she’s powerful. And the others are there to help her. (The pixies can cause so much trouble considering how small they are.)
- I love how Faragonda and Griselda just showed up to get them. It was cute. Though, now they’re being punished. Well, technically, Bloom didn’t break any rules because she had permission to leave but I guess she’s also in this because she shouldn’t have taken the others with her. (Cheeky to welcome Faragonda and Griselda to Earth.) At least Faragonda managed to get them the permission for music back from Griselda. XD
- Aww, babies! They are so tired from cleaning the whole school, they fell asleep. And the pixies helped, too.
- I’m not sure how Flora got that Helia is “the one” from talking to him for half a minute, but damn, wanna share those powers with the rest of us so that we can know immediately when we’ve met the one as well? (It was so cute to see Flora lean on Layla to sleep with her. And Piff, too. If she weren’t just talking about Helia, they would’ve been like a picture perfect family.)
This got very long so I decided to split the post for this season in parts. Part 2.

2018 summer film & tv bops that i watched + my opinions
FILMS
to all the boys i’ve loved before (6/10): it was pretty cheesy and exactly what i expected to come out of a contemporary teen book adaptation. i liked the actors in it and the representation, but otherwise, it wasn’t that unique concept-wise. it felt like i was watching a movie i had already seen before or like i was watching an old wattpad story come to life. i hadn’t read the book beforehand so i went into it thinking that it’d focus more on lara jean’s letters being sent out and her own personal development rather than a fake relationship that turns into a real one. it was just overall a little too unrealistic and cheesy for my taste.
the big sick (9.5/10): hilarious and fresh. i actually laughed out loud during this movie. the relationship between kumail and emily is so cute and their families are even cuter.
eighth grade (9.5/10): i LOVE bo burnham with a passion and his movie did not disappoint. it was realistic and brought me back to the weird and uncomfortable eighth grade feeling. i’m glad that kayla didn’t necessarily do anything monumental, but started to learn how to deal with her own issues.
baby driver (10/10): i’m kinda biased towards this movie bc i’m in love with ansel elgort AND lily james. setting my crushes on them aside, i loved this movie a lot. it was exciting and had just the right amount of everything. it’s in my top fave movies now so yah. go watch it bc it’s really good and lives up to the hype.
ex machina (8/10): tbh i don’t know what i was really supposed to learn from this movie, but i’m sure there was a lesson in there somewhere. beautiful to watch in my opinion.
emo the musical (7/10): i watched this movie bc i thought it’d be kinda cringey and funny, but it was surprisingly good for what i was expecting. it’s definitely a self-aware movie. definitely gave me some dear evan hansen and be more chill vibes even though they’re all very different. good movie for when you kinda just need to watch something while doing something else.
leave no trace (8/10): really cool story. i got annoyed with the daughter’s voice at first, but eventually just got use to it. i thought it’d focus more about them actually living in forest park, but the rest was interesting too. the ending was kinda weird and most of it felt weird tbh, but still a good movie.
anna karenina (7/10): first off, anna is kinda annoying and vronsky is literally way overrated. i liked the side story with kostya and kitty better. however, i thought the transitions and how to story was told was super intriguing and made watching anna turn into a mess a little more enjoyable. i do sympathize with anna for some parts of the movie, but ultimately, i think that she got the fate that she chose for herself. i did like the look into russian society and the role of women in the male-dominant world. overall, it was visually beautiful and had unique storytelling, but anna and vronsky’s love story wasn’t enough to make me root for them.
TV
anne with an e (8/10): started this thinking it’d be kinda boring because it’s just about farmy people back in the day, but damn.... farmy people got a lot going on. the stories are intriguing and most of the show is pretty wholesome and sweet. anne can be a little annoying, but what 13 year old isn’t? gilbert is my man and i love him. i also love cole a lot. all the characters are well-written and have their own nuances. this show also deals with big issues pretty well like racism, sexism (kinda), LGBTQ+ issues, and more! seriously
series of unfortunate events (7/10): this show is obviously geared towards younger kids, but it wasn’t any less enjoyable because of it. the show is clever and has a unique charm to it. this show is pretty perfectly cast and has good comedic timing that isn’t kiddish. i especially enjoyed all the references to difference works of writing.
dear white people (10/10): this show is so so so good. idk even know why i love it so much, but the characters are all so amazing. i was really sad when i finished season 2 bc i binged it and didn’t have anything to watch anymore.
i am not a robot (8/10): skeptical about the concept of this show at first, but it turned out to be really cute and good. i also am a fan of chae soo bin (loved her in cheer up and strongest deliveryman). yoo seung ho was also cute in this show and i’m glad that being a rich person wasn’t his only defining character trait. all the side characters were phenomenal, even the ones that i got annoyed by sometimes.
my only love song (k-drama) (6.5/10): if you haven’t noticed yet, i tend to watch things with my faves actors and actresses in them. i only watched this k-drama because gong seung yeon and lee jong hyun were in it. it was an ok drama. the story wasn’t the most interesting and it felt slow at times. the buildup to on dal and su jeong’s relationship was almost non-existent which was weird. i still liked it for the most part, but wish it were done better.
suits season 8 (usa) (8/10): i’ve been really enjoying this new season. tbh idk why everyone hates katherine heigl, but she’s doing pretty well in suits. i need harvey and donna to just get together already bc if they don’t, i will sue. i miss mike’s character and his relationship with harvey, but i also feel like his story’s ending on the show made sense. even though she’s a great actress, meghan markle’s character honestly was one of my least favorites so i didn’t really even feel like there was anything missing from the show when she left like i do with mike.
the package (k-drama) (8/10): super beautiful to watch since it’s set in france. the characters in the tour group ensemble are so interesting to watch. their stories each slowly unfold throughout the show. it was lighthearted and playful while also dealing with big life issues and it was all done so beautifully.
judge vs. judge (k-drama) (9/10): literally one of the best plots in a k-drama that i’ve seen so far. there’s always a twist every episode and the story is crafted so well. the romance in this drama is very subtle, but the plot is amazing. has a different feel than other k-dramas, probably because it doesn’t have a romance as the main plot point. seriously could not recommend this drama more, especially is you like crime dramas.
super tv season 2 (8/10): tbh i liked season one a tiny bit little more bc it focused on suju more rather than other groups trying to promote, but this season was good too. it was fun seeing suju interact with other groups. my fave episodes were the last two when they went on vacay with ryeowook.
ducktales (9/10): i like watching cartoons as a therapeutic type thing bc cartoons are less serious than live action things most of the time and they’re simpler than real life. ducktales has been a solid one for me lately. it’s a cute show with a good plot. there are definitely a bunch of filler episodes that have nothing to do with the big mystery, but those ones are still pretty fun to watch. if you feel like being nostalgic and just more like a kid, watch ducktales.

Thoughts on Red Bull? Thoughts on how they treat their drivers? Thoughts on Kvyat? Thoughts on Ron Dennis? (Personal: I hate Ron so much) Thoughts on Mark never getting a championship? Thoughts on Red Bull not letting Seb and Mark race it out?
Red Bull (& their drivers)
Red Bull are my team (sorry McLaren), I supported them when they first started, and have gone through so much shit supporting them, I’m not sure how to walk away. They have had some shitty moments (Silverstone 2010 with the front-wing, Turkey 2011, Multi 21), but they have also had some fantastic moments (4 championships - constructor and driver, 4 Monaco wins to name a few).
How they treat their drivers? Trash. They (I mean, Helmut Marko mostly) pick a favourite and then build the team around them. Mark? Number two driver, despite being there longer than Seb. Dan? Number two driver, despite being there longer than Max.
Also, as mentioned above, taking Mark’s front-wing to give to Seb? Not cool man, not cool at all. They pick a favourite and act on it. That’s not very sportsmanlike of them. They’re not awful to their drivers like other teams mind you, it could be worse.
Kvyat
He’s good, but not great. Should he have been promoted to Red Bull? In my opinion, no. For me, Vergne would jave been a better fit; he and Dan worked well, they both raced hard but fair. Jev had the pace and skill to do well, and really should have been given a chance at Red Bull.
Dany wasn’t given the guidance he perhaps needed, which lead to some of the poor results. He had potential to be a race winner, but Red Bull wasn’t the place for him. I wish he had been given a chance with another team, but I truly think his time in F1 is up. Formula E maybe?
Ron Dennis
I don’t know what he’s like as a person, but in terms of F1, idk, I have mixed feelings. He did so much for McLaren, but also some not so great things. I was 7/8 years old when the whole Espionage controversy happened, so I’m a little sketchy on it. What I do know is he certainly came across as two-faced and I never really respected him afterwards. He also definitely favoured Hamilton, which, idk, seems unfair. But it happens in teams. Putting aside the fact I adore Fernando, logic would say if you had to back a driver, you would back the 2-time World Champion over the rookie, no?
Mark Never Getting a Championship
Right, okay this is where I am most passionate. Mark is my ultimate fave and I would give him a kidney if he asked. He deserved a championship and in my heart he will always be 2010 World Champion. I wrote a post about the 2010 season, which I’ll reblog if I can find it.
He was so unlucky with his team choices, he could have joined Renault with Fernando, and Ferrari, and of course, He so nearly won with Red Bull. He did some incredible things in his career (starting P2 in a Jaguar? Insane mate, fucking insane). He physically suffered so much (he drove in 2009 with a broken leg after having an accident on his bike), and fought tooth and nail for everything in his career. he would have been one hell of a worthy champion.
Also, his first win in Germany 2009? Honestly the greatest race I ever watched. To have a drive through penalty and still win? With his family there by coincidence? I was so happy I honestly nearly cried, he had worked so hard for so long.
Mark/Seb & Red Bull
I am bitter, so very very bitter. Seb was the favourite from day 1 and Mark deserved so much better than that. Red Bull always took Seb’s side (or at least, that is how it has always come across). When they did race it out, it was aggressive. When they were told not to, seb they raced it out anyway.
Okay, to be fair, Mark pushed a little too hard as well at times.
If they had raced it out now, it would have been different. Seb has grown up a lot, still not 100% grown up, but he’s definitely got better. I love Mark, and I like Seb as a driver. Everything is in the past, and they’ve all made peace (except maybe Mark and Helmut?). I’ll always look back and hate Red Bull for everything they did 2009-2013, but what’s done is done
Also, “Not bad for a number two driver”? Iconic
#wow that was a wild ride#can you tell I love Mark?#I feel the need to clarify that I don't hate Seb#or red bull#except maybe helmut marko#I resent how things have played out#but I don't hate them at all#mclarcn

Clolyalilinette on a trip to your hometown
why they would ever want to go to the great state of New Jersey, idk, but here we go :D (Takes place in Cape May, New Jersey which is my fave place in NJ)
Edit: I fixed some stuff i didn’t notice last night!!
Chloe and Lila want to know why exactly they’re at the beach in New Jersey when they could’ve went to Italy, or to Chloe’s family’s beach house in Nice.
Marinette shrugs and points at Alya
“My pen pal from Quebec said their family comes here every summer and I wanted to see why, so sue me,” Alya says, sticking her tongue out
“You suck.” Chloe sticks her tongue out in return
Alya flips her off and Marinette giggles into Lila’s shoulder
After the initial “why the fuck are we in New Fucking Jersey?” they settle into the house they pooled their money to rent for three days.
It’s a pretty decent sized house, albeit old. There’s a screen porch that Chloe and Marinette adore because the furniture is really cute and they get to look at the garden right outside without getting bugs all over them
They unpack some of their necessities and when they’re all content, they head out, making sure they have enough american money
The sun beats down on them while they walk the boardwalk and beach
“This sand is awful, it actually hurts my feet to walk on,” Chloe complains, scowling at the sand littered with broken shells.
“Aw, Chlo, do you want me to carry you?” Marinette teases
“Yes, Marinette, yes I do.”
“I didn’t mean-”
“Well, that’s too bad, babe. Turn around and lemme on.”
“Oh my god. Fine.”
Once Marinette is holding Chloe piggyback style, Lila turns to Alya and waggles her eyebrows
“So, how about-”
“Don’t even think about it, Rossi. You can keep your shoes on if you can’t handle it.”
“But Alyaaa!”
“No buts, sugar.”
“You’re a butt.”
“You love my butt.”
“That’s beside the point.”
After being denied a piggyback ride, Lila suggests going on a horse and carriage ride the next day
She tells them she made sure to look it up before they even came, and that this particular company is known to treat their horses with respect and care.
They all agree to go on one
They go through about half the shops on the boardwalk except for ones that smell weird and sell mostly clothes
“You’ll never get that smell out of em, best to shop elsewhere,” Mari says
everytime they stop to get something to eat one of them isn’t hungry until everyone else has already eaten
they buy a few water bottles and bags of chips before going to walk the beach one last time before they head to the carnival
When night falls they walk to the carnival grounds and get Way Too Much Funnel Cake
Except for Marinette who eats what the others can’t and still wants more
“She’s not even fucking human,” Lila groans, draping herself over Marinette’s lap
“She’s a god dammed sugar goblin.” Chloe drapes herself over Alya’s lap and discreetly wipes her face on Alya’s legs
Alya knows she’s doing it but doesn’t really care because her girlfriend is so fucking cute
“I’m convinced that when she was a baby, her parents gave her sugar water to drink instead of milk because I can’t conceive any other possible explanation for this.” Alya slumps forward, propping her head on her hand.
“You’re all just weak,” Marinette laughs, running her fingers through Lila’s hair before peppering her with kisses.
Chloe, Alya, and Lila all say, “Shut up.”
There’s a cheap and pretty lame zipline that’s on a flat surface and Marinette and Chloe both go on
Mari is on one side and Chloe’s on the other
They pull back as far as they can go before flinging themselves forward
They do not get near enough to kiss
and Marinette is too short for her feet to touch the ground so she just hangs there while Chloe inches closer to her
Alya and Lila are cracking the fuck up and so are Chloe and Mari by the time Chloe presses her lips to Marinette’s
There’s also a rock climbing wall and all of them really want to go on and race each other
there’s only two harnesses so they decided to compare times
Alya is victorious with Lila a close second
Chloe and Marinette grumble about it but give their girlfriends each a victory kiss
It soon comes to their attention that there’s an actual zipline
Marinette and Chloe push each other out of the way to get in line first and in doing so let Lila get in line first
“I’ll trade you three kisses to let me ahead of you,” Chloe practically shouts.
“I’ll trade you seven!” Marinette counters
“I’ll give you ten,” Alya offers, and laughs when Lila agrees
Marinette and Chloe pout a little, but Alya kisses their pouts away
They eventually run out of things to do and head back to their house
Lila is convinced the place they’re renting is haunted.
She pulls up the webpage of the horse and carriage ride and says the route they’re going on is the Haunted Trail, where the driver will tell them all the spooky stories of certain places and houses and frantically points out that their house is on the route
“Listen, darling, just because our house is on that route doesn’t mean it’s haunted,” Chloe says, trying to sooth her
“Yeah, and even if it was, we’ll protect you from the ghosts,” Marinette says with a wink.
“Well, they might, but I’m setting up cameras because now I wanna see.” Alya cackles when Lila throws a pillow at her face.
They all get ready for bed, and even though they go to sleep in separate beds, they all wind up in Alya’s before sunrise.
When they get up, Lila screeches about the door being wide open
“I CAME IN LAST AND CLOSED THE DOOR AND NOW THAT FUCKER IS WIDE OPEN WHAT THE FUCK”
“Girl, chill, someone probably got up to use the bathroom and forgot to close the door.”
“No, you know I’m a light sleeper, I would’ve woken up!”
“Maybe you slept walk and opened it- you do do that sometimes.
“Ugh, I’m telling you this place is haunted!”
Lila mutters about no one believing her at the dining table while Marinette prepares breakfast
“Shit, um… I forgot to get a few things, I’m gonna go down to the nearest shop to see if I can’t find any of the stuff,” Mari says
Alya calls out that she’s gonna come with, leaving Lila and Chloe alone in the house
Chloe eventually comes down and says she’s gonna go outside to look at the garden
Lila waves it off, smiles when Chloe gives her a kiss, and then waits
About five minutes in, she hears the door to the porch open in all its squeaky glory
“Chloe? Coming in so soon?” she calls out, but doesn’t get a response.
The door closes, she hears it close, and her pulse quickens.
“Chlo? Babe?”
And it squeaks open again. She gets up, cautious, and goes to stand in the hallway leading to the door. It swings shut, and she can see nobody’s there.
She rushes over to it and looks outside, and she can see Chloe’s ponytail bobbing around outside of the porch’s screen.
“What the fuck…” she mutters, and closes the door and makes sure she closed it.
Content that she did, that it’s truly closed, she starts walking away
and promptly freezes when it squeaks back open.
“Oh fuck, no,” she says and runs out the front door to the side, where Chloe is
Chloe looks up at her quizzatically. “What’s up, love?”
“Chlo, this house is fucking haunted, I swear to god. You have to come see this.”
She grabs Chloe’s hand and drags her back into the house, to the hallway with the door.
They stand there for several minutes before Chloe finally breaks and asks, “What are we looking at?”
“Th-the door! It kept closing and opening, even when I made sure it was shut! You didn’t hear it?”
“Nnnno?”
Lila stamps her foot. “I’m gonna get proof, then. Go back outside.”
As soon as she sees Chloe back outside, she watched the door, but it doesn’t open.
“You’re an asshole,” she tells it, flipping it off and turning away.
The door squeaks open and she spins on her heel. “Ha! I knew I wasn’t crazy!” It shuts. “I knew-”
“Knew what, babe?” Alya asks as her and Marinette walk in.
“This place is fucking haunted!”
Alya and Marinette exchange a look.
“You guys don’t believe me?”
“Not without proof,” Alya says, and takes out a camera from her fanny pack. “But maybe we can get some.”
“I do actually believe you! But there’s nothing I can do, so I think it’s best to just roll with it, you know?”
Lila sighs. “Fine.”
“Great! Now I’ll get us some breakfast whipped up for reals, okay?”
“Yeah…”
“Alright.” Marinette kisses her on the forehead and that’s that.
When they’ve had breakfast, they go out to sit on the beach until the time they planned to go on the horse and carriage ride
Alya is the best at finding whole shells and spends most of her time with her legs in the water
Marinette heard from some passing people from Quebec that if you dig where bubbles come up after water hits, you could find crabs
she only manages to find and dig up one, but it rather pleased with herself
Chloe lays back to sunbathe
until Lila hoists her from the ground and runs into the water with her
Chloe screeches the whole way, but then she’s laughing and trying to pull Lila underneath the water with her
Alya tries to get Marinette into the water with them, but she mentions she’s a little scared of the ocean, having never been
Each of them promise they’ll be there for her if anything happens
comforted by her gfs, she agrees to come out and ends up loving it
Carriage ride time!!!
They don’t understand everything the coachman is saying, but it’s all fascinating nonetheless
they ride past their house and Lila asks about it
“Oh, that one? They call it the Hope House. That’s about all we were told about it.”
Marinette pats her on the knee and smiles comfortingly.
“But of course, most of us always say it’s called that ‘cause anyone who lives in it ‘hopes’ they’ll leave it alive.”
Lila has a mild freak out and it takes the combined comfort of all three of her girlfriends to calm her down
“We’ll only be there for one more day, lovely,” Mari tells her.
“That’s one day too many,” Lila mutters, but drops it.
That night, they decide to stay at their house to relax and hang out.
They play silly card games and make funny jokes
Lila forbids scary stories
They tell funny stories instead!!
The night passes without any ghost scares, and Lila feels refreshed
That day they visit the rest of the boardwalk that they hadn’t seen
All of them but Alya buy bags of shells
Marinette purchases a hermit crab because she feels bad for their living conditions
The others all have to stop her from buying every single one
Her puppy dog eyes make them crack so they each get one
They finish up their shopping and then go to catch a ferry ride for their last night
Mari’s never seen a boat so big in her life
They keep taking ferries until the sun sets, at which point they all huddle together at the railing of the ship and hold hands
They know things have been a little difficult sometimes, but in that moment, everything was worth it, to just be together in that moment
The next morning, after Lila has another scare with the porch door, they pack up their things and head back to the airport so they can finally head home

@ravenmechanic did those post with question about their life during 2017 just before the year ended, and i wanted to answer the question too. i am just a little late with it (like i am with everything lately...) anyway also tagging @laurel-jane-juspeczyk if that is okay, just bc it is me talking about my life and how things have been and yeah it’d be cool if both of you read it but also fine if not.
it’s under a read more, bc it is kinda long.
what did you do in 2017 that you’d never done before? I drove a car! Which went much better than expected and while everything surrounding it isn't so great, i feel v good about the actual driving aspect. I also moved in with someone, just in a roommate capacity but that's still a big deal. I made cookies for the first time (that I can remember)!! I left therapy and felt somewhat ready about it for the first time (I'm used to being told to leave because they can't help me or things like that so this was a v nice change) And I got glasses, which I guess isn't really a thing I did but still was a v new thing. i can’t believe it has been less than a year?? it feels like i’ve always had them tbh.
did you keep your new year’s resolutions, and will you make more for next year? Ha nope. Okay tbf I didn't really make any resolutions at all, it's more that I had goals for the year, namely getting a job and getting my driver's license, and I have failed at both and spent way way too much money on driving classes already. did anyone close to you give birth? Nope did anyone close to you die? Charlie died in the middle of January which was really difficult for me, because she just meant the world to me and it wasn't just a joke when I referred to her as the light of my life. I'm feeling okay about it now and I have different pets now, but she was really an amazing little creature and I wish she was still a part of my life what countries did you visit? The only country I have visited is France. I mean I've driven through two other countries and I've obviously been in the country my family is from and the one I live in, but that's it. so even counting all of that, it is only five countries, which does not feel like much at all (okay i have been in germany to grocery shop and buy clothes, as well so it isn’t like i’ve only driven through that. but i haven’t been anywhere in belgium besides just travelling through!! i don’t think i’ve even gotten out of the car there. i need to go there this year.) what would you like to have in 2018 that you lacked in 2017? A job (i am joking, sort of). But mostly having someone to hug. Having some sort of physical contact with people, because I'm so tactile, and I just need physical affection and I can't get it. (This is honestly my biggest challenge in life which sounds so stupid, but yeah one of the biggest issues in my life has always been not having people to hug)
what dates from 2017 will remain etched upon your memory, and why? When Charlie died. Going on holiday with two of my friends. telling my friend about the csa stuff and then discovering a mouse in their apartment, that was really something (the tension was so thick and heavy, and then /hey you guys have a mouse/). Going to the zoo with my sister and niece, any day I was with them tbh.
what was your biggest achievement of the year? Getting more emotionally stable and healthy. I know I'm still a mess quite often, but I've never been as stable as I've been this year (at least not without being super dissociated and barely existing) Also it's the first year that I didn't actually consider killing myself, which is a huge deal.
what was your biggest failure? Not getting a job
did you suffer illness or injury? Overall I've been pretty healthy
what was the best thing you bought? I impulse bought 12 puzzles in the middle of the night once, and honestly it's the best thing I did. I've gotten so much joy and calm and just a general feeling of achievement from those puzzles.
whose behavior merited celebration? Uhm tbh my own, for continuing to try to achieve my goals whose behavior made you appalled and depressed? I want to say my parents but they haven't been too terrible this year, I just find the fact that they exist horrible already.
where did most of your money go? Driving classes…. (We're definitely over 20000 DKK already and I still don't have a license)
what did you get really, really, really excited about? Oh boy, I got so into Spider-Man it is almost ridiculous. I also got excited about other things but my current interest in Peter Parker is some heavy special interest stuff, and it just makes me really happy tbh. i fell super hard for mcu peter parker cause he is such a sweet child, and then i read the ultimate spiderman comics, and i can confidently say that 1610 peter parker is my fave, he is such an anxious disaster that never knows what to do, i love him. (i mean 616 is also cool, though lbr he is an asshole (he is a nice one and never cruel but yk)) what song will always remind you of 2017? I guess it would probably be top of the world by Greek fire, because I listened to that so so many times for the Peter Parker fanvideo that I made (and also in general had it in my music playlist so yeah probably that one)
what do you wish you’d done more of? Written more, and practiced other things more as well. Just that I'd work harder on learning more skills, though I did still do that quite a bit, but it could have been more
what do you wish you’d done less of? Probably laying in bed (says me a person who is currently laying on the couch xD but the couch is a lot better than my bed tbh) how did you spend christmas? I spend Christmas Eve with my grandparents for the first time that I can remember and it was great! I'm so glad I got the opportunity to spend it with them. First Christmas Day I did nothing. And second Christmas day my sister came over so I spend a lot of time with her and my niece which was great.
what was your favorite tv program? The librarians, which is just so much fun and such a quality show. I can't recommend it enough. Also the expanse, which has great characters and is very interesting. And of course leverage like always, because it is the best show ever.
do you hate anyone now that you didn’t hate this time last year? No what was the best book you read? I can't even remember what books I've read what was your greatest musical discovery? I don't know. I did start listening to more music though, which I think is a good thing, because I'm just getting more comfortable with it really (and just myself in general) what did you want and get? I feel more secure and free from my family
what did you want and not get? Someone to hug what was your favorite film of this year? Spider-Man homecoming. I saw it so many times it was ridiculous, and I just got completely obsessed with it which then started my interest in Peter Parker. The movie just brought me so much happiness. Though I'm now definitely at a point where I have quite some criticism about the movie. what did you do on your birthday, and how old were you? I turned 23, and i didn't do anything special. Honestly I just read comics really xD fun fact though my entire family was together celebrating the birthday of other people and only my uncle bothered to call me and wish me happy birthday (3 people did text me though but still) and it wasn't even the actual birthday of those people whose birthday they celebrated...
what one thing made your year immeasurably more satisfying? Being more financially secure how would you describe your personal fashion concept in 2017? Long sleeved shirts with t-shirts over them. Also of course hoodies.
what kept you sane? Honestly my medication which celebrity/public figure did you fancy the most? I was into Tom Holland for like two weeks, which was the strangest thing because I'm usually v much not into famous people because Idol worship is v much not my thing because everyone is fake anyway and they're mostly trained liars that I do not know. who did you miss? My sister. Also Charlie because she died and was the best animal ❤ who was the best new person you met? Idk I didn't meet anyone that I'm really close to tell us a valuable life lesson you learned in 2017. Plans, goals and reputation don't matter. Just live your life in a way that makes you happy and content.
#m#i finally finished this#or rather i finished it on friday but i am finally posting it !!#shout out to me for finally having logged onto#tumblr on a computer for the first time in months#since my computer died#and ahh i send it in to get repaired#finished everything i need to do for that today#so hopefully it will get fixed#procastinated on that for months which is embarrassing and bad#but then i think /well my sister's living room door still does not have a window after almost two years#they finally found a solution for it though which is to hang a blanket over it to keep the heat in/#also my parents bought a washing machine more than two years ago#and it is still in the box....#and i was talking about that with my mom bc i was all ??? the fuck when i found out about it#and her opinion was /well this is why we buy extra insurance on it#which doesn't make any sense??? so now you are paying to have it insured but you aren't using it??#you know what would make sense#waiting two years with buying it#anyway let's see if it is installed next time i visit#or next christmas at least#anyway sometimes you think you are bad at procrastinating#and then you meet your family
