im so glad that we never get a clear picture of sophie’s background in leverage & i hope we never do. however i also really like making up various, often conflicting backstories for her in my head. perhaps they’re all backstories for an alias of hers, ones she laid to rest back in season two.

insane how people act like charles is ‘the jealous one’ like edwin didnt spend the whole first episode screaming crying throwing up every time charles looked at crystal and not him

so in Jinx we have Eddie not believing into the superstitions that the team holds regarding the q word and he’s making fun of them for believing in that stuff and then we have the scene of them after responding to one of the many crazy calls they have had that day alone and while they are in the fire truck ready to leave a live power pole falls on the engine so they have to wait for another fire station to arrive and help them out and even while waiting for help time and time again eddie keeps denying this jinx and I viewed it as this can get paralleled to him internally denying himself his true identity to fit into this narrative that was instilled on him growing up with his Mexican Catholic upbringing and how even after he makes the mistake of getting his current girlfriend at the time pregnant he gets married because of this religious upbringing that’s instilled in him and how he must fit this narrative to be seen as worthy as a man because that’s what a good Catholic man would do at this point but Eddie was like what supposed to be 19/20 when he got Shannon pregnant and married like that’s still a young guy figuring himself out, but because of this constant pressure he finds himself in a marriage at this age and him joining the military and going halfway across the world to again avoid his current situation that he found himself in

and we see Eddie time and time again doing what he thinks is best for others and how to fit into society but never himself like we have never seen him put himself first because even after Shannon passes away his coping mechanisms aren’t healthy he resorts to cycle of closing himself off to feel what he should feel because prior to Shannon passing away they were going to get a divorce like that was something that would have legally finalized him away from Shannon, but it didn’t happen and we have Eddie as a widow and a single father

then we have Buck tell Eddie in this same scene while they are in the engine waiting for help to arrive “it’s like the universe is screaming at you and you refuse to listen” and I like thinking about this in the way how since day one after the ambulance call Buck has had Eddie’s back and how he’s always been in his corner and when Eddie says “the universe does not scream” and we are reminded again that they are stuck in the engine that that’s a metaphor for the way how Eddie has constantly stuck himself in these relationships with woman to fit the societal norms that were presented to him growing up and how he doesn’t want to see what’s in front of him because he’s scared of believing that he is worthy of being happy while not fitting any societal norms and being selfish for once and bam again this in same episode we are hit with the Bobby and Eddie duo of Bobby giving this man advice yet again and Bobby tells Eddie, “they’re so focused on what they don’t have that they miss the chance to have something else, something real. sometimes you gotta move on” and they talk about how Eddie can’t seem to move on after Shannon passes away and this again is in turn because he can’t be honest with himself on why he felt the need to marry her like yes he loved her but was he was not in love with her like their marriage wasn’t perfect and totally understandable that every relationship has it’s problems but in Eddie’s marriage he was more away than he was together with Shannon and even when she was pregnant he spent that time away in the military and yes it was seen as patriotic and heroic for him to do this but again why did he run at the first chance he got halfway across the world

and then later on in the episode Eddie talks to the guy on the walkie when he steals the 118 engine and says this interesting quote about “but you can’t let yourself get stuck. all you can do is let go, move on. sounds scary, but i know you can do it” and at the end of the episode we do see Eddie and Ana go out for breakfast, but I think again the wording and irony of Eddie saying that because he doesn’t move on from Shannon because at the end of the day that is the root problem of why Eddie can’t seem to move on or Eddie can’t seem to be honest with himself so I am hoping for season 8 that we can finally see him now for the first time that he is alone work through finally being able to let go of Shannon and his marriage and figure out what makes Eddie, Eddie in a way if that makes sense like what makes Eddie our Eddie Diaz and be able to work on himself and with talks of episode 6 being an important episode for Wddie I really do hope we can see this play out in a true testament to Eddie’s character and it finally click on why he kept trying to not make himself happy and him constantly trying to fit into this box of a little perfect family because he wanted to make his son happy not himself

MAX 🥺🥺🥺

(double exposure spoilers under the cut)

I knew episode 5 was gonna be a nightmare sequence but i still ate that shit up what can i say it's fanservice and im the fan lol

genuinely did get a bit emotional at the end like okay im HAPPY FOR HER

post credits scene was wild?? Not sure how I feel about them just handing out super powers like halloween candy but...okay? and MAX CAULFIELD WILL RETURN HELLO ???? part of me is sceptical and part of me is like yay more max hehe (fanserive, fan, etc.) - either way, guess im gonna be insufferable for a while then whoops

'will you ever go back to arcadia bay' 'one day' 🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺girl i'll cry

lowkey the journal entries were nerfed. i mean i dont really care but still.

amanda max flirting scenes gave me major flashbacks to my own lesbian situationship so 10/10 points for accuracy on that one

i really enjoyed all the characters ngl!! and safi was so good and so intriguing i love that they let her be morally dubious oooo

'our lady of the storm' iconic. shes my fucking GIRL.

okay but is safi creating the lis avengers. like what is her plan. im concerned

how many endings were there because i strongly suspect there might have just been one and if that's the case that's hilarious but also like, come on

they kinda baited me with the "two maxes" bit at that one point i was like YES time travel bullshittery and max being a bitch to her alternate self EXACTLY WHAT I ASKED FOR and then i figured out the twist like 10 seconds before it was revealed and i was like well thats cool but.....i just wanna see max bully herself is that too much to ask for.....

'text from: chloe' like okay my heart did skip a beat lbr

okay so did max actually kill safi or what because that was never clear. like i think the polaroids were from the original timeline and then max shoots safi in that timeline leading to timeline 2 which is OUR original timeline i.e. the dead timeline and then...the living one happens asw? or was it like a pre-emptive timeline split did max ever actually shoot safi? i mean someone had to right? maybe this will make sense in the morning. or on the wiki. who can say

knew there was gonna be darkroom shit in the nightmare sequence fuck yeah (lowkey wanted more but hey im just being greedy now)

another tiny criticism but the krampus party did not feel like a college party lol like the vortex club end of the world party felt intense it felt dramatic it had stakes - krampus i was like oh this is giving me dead freshers week vibes guys just animate in some more extras please i know you can do it

music was amazing ofc

man i had this whole theory going on where max died in the "living" timeline at the same point that safi died in the "dead" timeline and that was why there was no alternate version of herself and it was some safis trying to save max while max is trying to save safi thing - obviously very wrong but i still vibe with it

i just really like max okay <3

To form something of a coherent conclusion: Really solid game, with some great scenes (the end of chapter 2 and start of 3 were def the standouts to me) and (in my opinion at least) really really good development for max - she was so clearly the same max as the original game but also she's grown up and she's grown into herself and ahhh it made me so happy to see!

I found some of the twists more effective than others and I think there could have been more build up to the storm (like in the original lis you KNOW it's coming for so long and there's this feeling of dread throughout whereas it kind of felt like we rushed to get to it here), but overall i had a good time, i really enjoyed getting to know the characters, and most of all, i really enjoyed getting stupidly attached to Max Caulfield again <3

7/10 looking forward to going down the rabbit hole with this one and i guess we'll see where we go next...??

finally finished flash rebirth vol 4 after a year+ of stalling and…

myeah that shit was scary. like tearing up, heart drop, pit in my stomach-scary

yes even his pathetic ass line. ESPECIALLY his pathetic ass line

[edwinisms]

I know how it sounds at first, but I really gotta feel bad for the boys that sacrificed edwin; I mean even the term “sacrificed edwin” paints them in a more sinister light than they really deserve– considering that wasn’t really, actually their intention.

they were bullies, they were homophobic (and/or were self loathing gay boys themselves taking it out on edwin, or were equally likely peer pressured into acting a certain way), they planned something stupid and mean to do to an innocent, anxious boy with the goal of scaring the shit out of him, all because he was effeminate and an easy target. but they didn’t know or expect any of the ritual stuff to be real. they were all laughing and joking during the ritual because it was just that to them– a joke. a cruel joke, but a joke.

teenagers can be mean and stupid and they usually regret it as adults and grow out of it / grow from it. they were stifled the chance to grow out of it, at least while alive. none of those boys deserved to be instakilled and sent to hell; they’re really not that much less deserving than edwin himself. they were all just kids, after all.
