Honestly I wonder if anyone’s ever read Chilchuck’s “I cheated on her” admission as an implicit reference to prioritizing alcohol over his marriage and feeling guilty abt it.

Ohh… "I cheated on her" as a half-truth because something ended up taking priority over their marriage, because emotionally he was elsewhere… "I cheated on her" because after having all the time in the world to think about it now that he’s alone, he realizes that that might have been how she felt, and that’s how it felt like to him too.

Love that. I def think he’s ironically someone who deflects guilt a lot, in a similar way that he compulsively goes "You’re wrong! I don’t care about you guys at all! I’m an asshole!" he flees emotions by making the problem something else that’s fake, a burden easier to bear, he’s so used to being seen for what he’s not after all. I went into it a bit in one of my fics and in a couple meta posts, but when it comes to his wife he was very much like an ostrich with his head in the sand, seeing her fall into a bad mood on the outing before she left him but dismissing it as something "sudden" that’s not worth thinking deeper about. Overdrinking is a problem for future Chil. I think he did a lot of "You want me to drink less and you’re afraid for my health? Get over it lol" and "I should be less strict with the girls and raise my voice less? My father was a strict drunk and look at me, I turned out functional and great! The girls are literally fine and love me" and "Oh? My drinking is affecting our family? No it’s not smh smh get off my back"< Drunk a significant portion of the time he spends at home since he’s off-work and somewhere he can relax. Type of guy to always dismiss any issues that might exists because he prefers ignoring them as if they’ll go away. All his problem solving energy is spent during work and the issue is with his family he already likes things as they are, they’re his comfort zone and change is scary, he doesn’t want the change, even if it’d be better. He doesn’t want to change, his unhealthy habits are guilty pleasures he wishes people didn’t try to make him feel guilty for

BUT POINT IS he struggles with guilt and like. Letting it be a feeling that he gets sometimes, so it’s all bottled up and festers and gets twisted into frustration or such like how his worry usually does. I like this take, wether it’s something he’s already thought a lot about or it’s something he’s repressed that came suddenly pouring out of him like blood out of a wound, now that he’s putting it into words with someone for maybe the first time.

It’s interesting how he didn’t refuse going up to the bicorn, I’m sure part of him wanted to see if it would like him, like the virtue test it is. Would a monster that loves despicable men be magnetized to him? Would it confirm his fears?

thinking about how gorgug + kristen perceive both their own deaths & each other’s, and how that impacts their relationship. bc i feel like freshman year kristen was too caught up in her newfound knowledge of the nature of her own god to truly clock & process gorgug’s internal revulsion of where he went after he died, & freshman year gorgug wasn’t familiar enough with the complexities of other people to truly lock onto the sorrow buried within the chaos of kristen’s upward/downward/sideways spiral until she was seemingly on the other side of it. & i wonder if they’ve ever really talked about it (unlikely), or if they’ve just cracked very few jokes that didn’t land and decided to never quite do the work & dig through that part of their relationship. but there’s a kinship there; kristen specifically singles out gorgug to tell him she died again, and gorgug apologizes that he wasn’t there with her this time. gorgug takes one of the finger bones off kristen’s newly/long-time decayed corpse to have an anchor to something in the world. despite the fact that they were in different places after death, having been together during it means everything.

anyways what i’m trying to say is i think they should talk about it.

bro what the fuck i just watched the episode where L dies and THAT scene after they come back inside from the rain really is over the top.what the fuck. I did not remember that romantic piano music. Also the double-entendres of everything they say..on the one hand it's alluding to L's soon-to-be murder, but also clearly it's meant to be (or at least could be) understood as romantic. What the actual fuck did I just watch. Also why did they look at each other like that. What the fuck

Hey I was stalking ur page just now and tripped over the “dick and tim and food” posts and it made me think of how, during the “Robin in keystone city” arc, pizza is brought up at least twice, and both times tim specified that he doesn’t want pineapple on the pizza. BUT iirc tim normally enjoys or at the very least tolerates pineapple on pizza, and I wanted to know if you thought maybe tim was avoiding pineapple pizza bc it’s a tim and dick thing for him and he’d miss his brother or something

Or maybe I’m just being weird or something idk

HEADCANON ACCEPTED I LOVE THIS

(the context of the panel is that dick ordered pizza, and alfred told him that he could've made food, so dick is saying "uh huh but i bet you wouldn't willingly make anoudille and pineapple pizza though" and alfred is all "no i would NOT and i can barely tolerate that you're eating it in front of me")

anyway so YES clearly tim can't eat andouille or pineapple pizza without Dick!! it'd be lonely

I don't remember him to look THAT fruity

Also shout out to this screenshot I found. Nothing straight about this man:

weird question but it came up in conversation recently and now i’m curious: if you had repressed memories, what was it like to have them resurface?

personally, i don’t think my life was better living in “ignorant bliss,” but i can’t rly say i’m glad i remembered either. i wonder how other ppl feel abt this kind of thing. i’ve been living w the UNrepressed memories for the amount of time i had forgotten now, so ig i’m just thinking abt it more w my bday coming up. wow that’s crazy, i’ll have remembered for longer than i forgot

[epitaffia]

i think it's very interesting that donatella was out there for many years alive & well.....when we have seen the lengths dia will go thru to erase even the smallest fragment of his earlier life. def will dive into that some day.....

dale and peri unintentionally bonding over the mutual dislike of the buxaplenty's, dale due to another capitalistic enemy and peri because he's weirded out over juandissimo past behaviour of hitting on his mom

this has been sitting in my inbox since august cause i couldn't find a nice and polite way to say . WRONG 👎👎👎

the dimmadomes and buxaplentys would more likely have positive relations, even if only for the sake of business or publicity

like they wouldn't personally be pals but like.... there's a mutual kind of respect since they're on more equal footing. idk. lame rich people gotta stick together or something womp wompp

as for juandissimo. yeah no he's kinda annoying. fumbled so hard he couldn't let go for 10,000 years lmaooo but i like to think that he got his shit together and stopped being lame and everyone's chilling now 🎉 i don't think peri would personally hate him At All. its all just water under the bridge now and he might've been annoyed for a week or two but he wouldn't hate him. theyre all pals again whateverrrrrr

"malcolm killed someone as a kid and repressed the memory" is extremely fun and i endorse it, but let's also consider: "ainsley has killed before and repressed the memory".

I really feel like the reason why Cosmo refused to say her name to anyone other than Sonic was because she remembered the "deal" she made with the Metarex in this point in time before later repressing it, or just had an instinct about it

[sanji-piss-hell]

rewatching thriller bark I don't remember any of it. I have to wonder how peronas ghosts and sanjis self worth issues are gonna mix. Cause like, mans out here being called a defective product his whole childhood. From what I recall when he gets hit its just the stereotypical gag. I hope that oda used this as an opportunity for foreshadowing tho

I am going to start keeping a list of moments like these so if I ever write a fic I'm armed and ready

[mama-marleigh]

Bruh the bad part about having your entire childhood memories repressed because trauma is that all the good memories go too :(

Like I remembered a melody in a song and immediately had a breakdown because I suddenly remembered why I am the way I am and why I'm proud of it.

I rummaged through all my stuff on my dest to find a broken down music box just so I could remember the words that he said to me after years of not remembering anything about him.

For the ask game: memory 👀👀

How deep, deep down he would have shoved that memory, if he’d never been able to hear Kon’s laughter again, to see his radiant smile.
