#question 7

[dk-thrive]

My parents were frugal not simply because they had to be careful, but because they saw little reason for making life about money.

Question 7:

Oh, no! You've been exposed to radiation, and a mutated hand has grown out of your stomach! What's the best course of treatment?

1. A bullet to the brain.

2. Large doses of anti-mutagen agent.

3. Prayer. Maybe God will spare you in exchange for a life of pious devotion.

4. Removal of the mutated tissue with a precision laser.

The Weekly Gravy #184

The Life of Emile Zola (1937) – *** 30 minutes into The Life of Emile Zola, we cut from Zola, who’s risen from an impoverished young writer living in a garret to a wealthy middle-aged man living in luxury, to Maj. Esterhazy (Robert Barrat) writing a letter to the German military attaché which will be intercepted and kick off the Dreyfus affair, and the rest of the film will revolve around the…

7, 11, 12, and 14 for the ask game?

7. Favorite G3 parent(s)?

Apollo is definitely up there! Best dad award goes to...

But also, Dracula is great too! I love how much character development he's received this season. Starting from being super stubborn and non-approachable about witchcraft to being like "I'll try to bend the rules and make witchcraft acceptable" and "here, daughter of mine, let me help you with your witch studies!" Like, what a great dad T-T also, his egotistical moments can be really funny! That whole interaction he had with Apollo about his "really handsome friend" was hilarious. Other parents are wonderful too, we just don't get to see them a ton. Lyra and Medusa are adorable, and the way Medusa described how she fell for Lyra was so sweet 🥺 

11. Any G3 ships you'd like to see?

The only ship I'm a die hard fan of is clankie, and they're canon 💅 not to brag or anything SHHJSH /lh. So basically, more clankie!! I hope we get to see more of them being together in season 2. Maybe there will be a date episode...👀

But, I know it was stated in the MH bible that Clawdeen is a lesbian. Even if the bible isn't real, would love to potentially see her embark on a gay little storyline! But single icon Clawdeen is also wonderful!

12. Are there any canon relationships (platonic or otherwise) in G3 you enjoy or don't enjoy especially?

hehehe I wonder what ship I enjoy...

IT'S CLANKIE OF COURSE!! XD

They're just so adorable!! And queer love is so precious!

Platonic-wise, I love Deuce and Frankie's relationship. With Portrait of a Monster being my favorite episode, their friendship dynamic/interactions are so fun!

For ones I don't enjoy... there's none in particular I hate. I just feel like some are exceptionally rushed. Like Gil and Lagoona. They only had two episodes (one being Gil's introductory episode) before they ended up going to the Monster Ball together. If people ship them though, then that's totally chill and I respect you :) if you don't ship them, that's also totally chill, and I respect you too!

14. You have been given the chance to design the G3 version of one G1-introduced character. Who do you choose?

Ooo this one is tough. Probably Heath...💀 I've gotten used to his design, but at first, it was jarring for a lot of people to see HSJHJ (no offense, Heath). I like some of the changes they made. As weird as it sounds, I kinda like the bald-ness XD I feel like it makes sense that his hair is literally fire that can be put out at any time. Not sure how I feel about the blue in his design; blue and orange (which is a large part of his color scheme) are on opposite ends of the color wheel, so it sorta throws me off a little. I'd probably have a fun time integrating more red/orange/black colors into his outfits and design :)

Richard Flanagan's Question 7

A fabulous interview with Richard Flanagan in The Guardian after he won the Baillie Gifford Prize nonfiction for his book, Question 7:

“This book is about my father and my mother,” he says, “their love for each other and the way they used love to find meaning in a world they knew to otherwise be meaningless. I think everyone is confronted at a certain point with the knowledge that the universe is empty of meaning. So the question is: how do we go on? They found meaning through kindness and goodness to each other and to others. They practised that love and they fought for that love for decades. It ceased to be what I thought was an illusion, and became their hard-fought-for reality. It became a truth – it was really a form of magic, and they the magicians. I realised it was an immense achievement. They came from very poor backgrounds: they understood the hardness and harshness of this life, yet they found wonder within it everywhere.”

We are that too. He wrote, is writing, will write, waiting for us to become a new, better story.
