and if i said hoffman entering the glass coffin room was orpheus coded what then

all he has to do is trust that strahm is there. if he just closed the door there could only be two outcomes. strahm gets in the box or dies. he just has to let the trap play out. but he can't. he either didn't set up cameras or doesn't want to look through them. he can't help it he HAS to enter the room he HAS to see what strahm has chosen with his own eyes. even with his "anticipating the human mind leaving nothing to chance" he has DOUBT that causes him to look back into that room even when it dooms the test and strahms fate. hoffman entering that room adds too many variables to be 'leaving nothing to chance' and he'll never know for absolute certain if strahm would've entered the coffin if he just let the test play out. in this test about 'trust' strahm is asked to trust in hoffman while hoffman needs to trust in the test. but he could not hold onto his end of the bargain.

Interview With The Vampire (2022- ) | Rashomon (1950)

Look, everyone wants to forget unpleasant things, so they make up stories. It’s easier that way. But never mind. Let’s hear this dead man’s story.

[koriand3r]

In the 1997-2003 TV Series, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Buffy Summers struggles with the growing sense of isolation from her friends who represent her connection to humanity. This is in part due to a series of events that are notably key milestones of a vampire's becoming: being drained by a vampire, drinking vampire blood, rising from the grave, becoming physically stronger after death, and contemplating both sides of her demonic and human nature. Thereby explaining Buffy's series long attraction to vampires. In this essay I will–

im 4 movies in and this is what i took away from saw iii/saw iv

Dear Billy,

By the time you read this, I will be dead. This is how I think it's going to happen: Amanda will shoot Lynn. Then Jeff will enter and shoot Amanda and I'll get Saw™ed in the neck by Jeff. Lynn will get head exploded for good measure. Then Agent Strahm will come in and shoot Jeff multiple times.

Love, your father John

P.S. Simultaneously in a different room, Officer Rigg will enter and be shot by Detective Matthews. Then Matthews' head will get exploded too. Then Rigg will shoot Art.

P.P.S. Hoffman will just be sitting sluttily in the background during all this.

nooooo i'm thinking about the glass coffin again because of this post

like of course the glass coffin looks exactly like the water cube with the glass and the enclosed space and the two tubes. the only difference is that this one has fixed the loophole! of course that's what makes the test so difficult of course that's what makes the test about TRUST ohhhhhh my godddddd

strahm is TRAUMATIZED and asked to willing put himself in the same situation he JUST almost died in. he has no reason to believe that the tubes are there for anything but water. AND IMAGINE IF THAT WAS TRUE!!!

imagine if hoffman let strahm listen to the whole tape. imagine if after fighting everything that his guts were telling him he actually got in the box. and it started filling with water. hoffman enters the room looking him in the eyes as strahm's hyperventilating. the water comes in slowly but there's nothing strahm can do and he's cursing himself and hoffman. and hoffman is just standing there silent or maybe he's telling strahm that he's proud of him and that he made the right choice to trust him. strahms fighting for his life but there's nothing he can do this time as he drowns and the last thing he sees is a blurry hoffman through the water...

until he wakes up... like most post-coffin fics except this one had baptism by drowning. this is for 2 reasons

1)the poetic parallels

2) this whole thing was an elaborate plan so that hoffman could give strahm mouth to mouth

aka i've been thinking thoughts since my last fatal five post

The glass coffin is everything to me. It’s Orpheus, It’s Sleeping Beauty/Snow White/Grimm’s “Glass Coffin”, It's Poe’s Pit and the Pendulum, It’s a funeral, It’s a rebirth, It’s faith, It’s damnation, It’s a comedy, It’s a tragedy, It’s victory, It’s surrender, It’s regret, It’s the nexus of all possibilities, It could have only ever ended one way.

I actually made two versions of this. the other one I personally like better but I think objectively this version is a lot cleaner. I chose this one to put in the sawposting tag but if you wanna see an alt version here: secret dialogue version
