#pegcahy timeline :/

[capaldiera]

don't take sidney and mulcahy being so close to the top as a particular endorsement. it's just not very funny or fucked up

[capaldiera]

pegcahy is about if a bizarre situationship ruined your life and that lead to you becoming your truest and most actualised selves (parents who confiscate their teenage daughter's weed and then smoke it)

[capaldiera]

spent too long making this the other day to not post it. here u go

[capaldiera]

funniest part of the beejcahy -> pegcahy pipeline is that bj and mulcahy don't even really like each other all that much they just accidentally became a happy family and then that was how it was. imagine the problems you have to have for being in basically-a-throuple to become just-sort-of-the-path-of-least-resistance. in nineteen fucking fifties america. i believe in them though i think they could do it

[capaldiera]

when you think about it, the beejpegcahy happy family moment was bj hunnicutt's nick skolka

[capaldiera]

ive been thinking about bj's downward spiral mostly in the abstract in an analysis type way and honestly my approach to mulcahy and peg's responses to the situation has been kind of boring bc the focus is too much on their relationships with each other or erin instead of with bj. and also it can't just be bj we're seeing the worst of. anyway i think mulcahy and bj should have a full-on fight all across the living room

[capaldiera]

the beejpegcahy ill-advised messy unfortunate threesome is not a permanent fixture of the beejcahy -> pegcahy pipeline but if it did happen it would contribute to bj's spiral sooo bad. which is so fun

[capaldiera]

it's so important that bj and mulcahy are just not that big fans of each other. like they don't dislike each other they get along well enough they care about each other etc etc. but they're just not that jazzed about spending time together really. tfw you accidentally completely on purpose get into a "loveless" "marriage" of extreme social inconvenience for no discernible reason beyond "it just happened that way"

[capaldiera]

p sure the first time i explained the beejcahy -> pegcahy timeline i said i dont think he would about bj like having a breakdown and leaving peg and erin. girl that is one of the few things that make sense in this story

[capaldiera]

i have a coughing and/or laughing fit every time i remember the pegcahy timeline and the fact a central event in it is the catholic priest getting laicised to marry a divorced protestant woman. sorry catholics

[capaldiera]

bj had some nerve becoming a leather daddy in the 60s. mulcahy's into that and he can't fuck him. good god the words i will say

[capaldiera]

peg or mulcahy sleep with a woman whose name is not margaret challenge

[capaldiera]

ok im normal again (not going to post pegcahy thoughts)

[capaldiera]

i gradually abandoned my young mulcahy secret relationship concept a while back bc the whole ends badly when they get found out thing was like.. no that's too much trauma for what im aiming for. like im not trying to give him life-changing ptsd from this he's got enough of that happening. but if it's a triple dog dare fast car twin sized mattress situation then that works

[capaldiera]

you ever in the mood to ruin all your lives a bit by delaying your old war buddy's divorce by a few years because he and his wife just liked having you around

[capaldiera]

you're talking to peg and mulcahy and they're both being autistic at the same time so you can't rely on one to point out to the other that your not interested so you're stuck in the conversation for like 30 minutes
