imo the strongest evidence for roman being younger than shiv comes from the first few eps, and both of them undergo significant character changes from there on out especially roman so i think the dynamic there starts out malleable enough to cohere w later eps. but even otherwise as early as ep2 we have this exchange:
between shiv and greg which pretty clearly confirms shiv being the youngest. i'm not saying there isn't a claim that can be made for roman, but i do think it would've been stated here by shiv if he was written to be. like even just operating within the internal characterization of the first two eps. this is the character who in the pilot says to logan why would i when im giving away power. she would leverage birth order here if she could lol
#rewatching and like. i dont really care but also that IS their baby sister.#also shiv bathroom scene here wahoo. first of the show and a place for shiv to apply the mask as based off her consolidated priorities#shiv roy

B99 Obsessive Rewatch Season Two
rewatching B99 and taking notes. also, sometimes i get ideas of stuff i wanna see played out more, so i post them as prompts and link them here. spoilers for all of season two.
2:1
Jake as an italian mobster kinda
Is this the first holt&jake hug we’ve seen?? Rayray doesnt even flinch so cute
Jake’s rapidfire recap : fixed a boxing match / smoked a whole cigar w/o vomitting / was in a room w/ 10 Sals
Jake lies to amy about liking her
Jake has “lady hands”
Holt says he’s seen MOVIES PLURAL
Awesome begins with an O, JP 2013 probably
“i am feeling trepidation at the prospect of a parentless existence” = baby holt’s parents had a thing when he was 7
Weirdest thing in the whole episode is mobster jake being beaten by a cop on mob turf and none of his mobster buddies helping out
Baby holt snuck into daddy holt’s office to check out his collection of antique globes = daddy holt issues ref above
Proud daddy holt. Forgot to note if it happened in s1 so we’ll consider this the beginning
Jake unlies to amy about liking her
Gina and boyle shag again
2:2
Terry’s getting snipped and gina is way creepy
Boyle has a sister (probs castle girl) that we never mention again?
Wunch appearance and holt is a dramatic shit i love him
Wunch&holt : wunch shot holt, holt tried to get her fired, wunch destroyed holts file while UC, holt embarrassed wunch in front of derrick jeater who??
Amy’s fierce when someone’s fucking with her career we stan
Charles has seen the little mermaid
Holt’s a great amy dad cause both of them are ambitious nerds
2:3
Jimmy jabs est.2008
Jake knows rosa’s friend katie (and s1 amy’s friend kylie – how the fuck)
Lots of parallels to FRIENDS. Accidental sex tape, two guys accidentally nap together, probs other stuff, where’s the downstairs officers brooming the ceiling?
Squad screams like maniacs in the bullpen and random background people literally dont even care – ie this is such a habit people are over it
Bomb suits kinda look like minions or is it just me
Hitchcock is evil – do we think he’s related to gina or what?
Amy wins
2:4
Halloween heist
Holt is a master jake player, all rejoice
Holt says watch from kevdad & kevdad dead

2:5
Trust levels off the charts. Leaping at terry, telling holt the truth and asking amy for help. Okay so that’s only jake but still
Wunch is evil
My man holt is sooo tense, how long do we bet till he blows up?
Amy is giving toddler mom vibes rn somebody give her a margarita

Rosa’s really backhanded at compliments it’s awesome
So cops hate lawyers and firepeople?? Who are they buddies with? (except for the criminals eh)

Holt wants bland ugly food, like how picky can you get
How is jake inviting teddy to come a proof of teddy being romantic?

Amy&rosa in a car for four hours? I need to see it
“uncle ray” talks about work so much even his NEPHEW knows who’s who. 1) was kev not there, because no cop talk policy 2) was he EFFUSIVE??
Most of what i’ve learnt from this watching session today is that i’m real hungry why do they keep eating
You know what’s inconspicuous? Two guys sitting in front of windows with massive cameras. Totes invisible
Jake&charles have a roomie breakdown, gina&amy have an existential crisis, terry is a mom and rosa&holt are ...there
Man i do NOT want to shag in my boss’ house, i mean rosa’s got her own flat, cmon
Kev making bacon smiles on his pancakes totes goes into my kev&holt get baby martin for holidays headcanon (see season one obsessive rewatch)
“this isn’t my first rodeo” jake abt dealing w/ scully >> fits into baby jake shadowing scully for junior cops thingy (also in s1 obsessive rewatch)

I want marvin the geriatric bank robber to be buddies with gina??
Im lowkey upset that kevs buddies with gina tho, he’s not evil enough
Ray talks about jake to random waitresses and his painting teacher
Okay i get it, amy and charles are too simpy, rosa’s too unhinged, we don’t talk about hitchcock and scully, terry’s got his own shit, so that only leaves gina and jake and it cannot be jake, so. Yeah okay gina and kev are buddies
Ray called jake a genius just cause he heard him practice his holt impression, how cute
2:17

Dickhead peralta shows up, i hate him :(
Holt’s “unsolvable” riddle “There are 12 men on an island. 11 weigh exactly the same amount, but one of them is slightly lighter or heavier. You must figure out which. The island has no escapes, but there is a seesaw. The exciting catch? You can only use it three times.”
Jakes allergic to bees and dickhead knows about it
I’d go on a sudoku cruise too amy
Honestly this riddles fucking easy im so angry
Amy’s right tho, you do 6v6, one side’s heavier, then you divide that one 3v3, one side’s heavier, you do 1v1 and either they’re equal and the last one’s the heaviest or one of them’s already the heaviest
I cannot tell you how infuriated i get everytime im reminded of dickhead peralta’s later character arc.

do you think the museum arc in epithet erased compared to the western arc?
Okay okay listen.
I LOVE the museum arc, okay? It’s the perfect mix of Pokémon, Ib, and TTRPG. Molly is a TREASURE. Sylvie is PRECIOUS. Giovanni is the BEST BOY. I love them all so much and when we got to the next arc and saw those characters less, I was kinda upset. Plus, the museum arc is the only arc I can watch with my sister, save episode 4. (She’s eleven and the language that randomly gets inserted was a little too much for our mom w)
But then Zora came in and I got over it
She just had SUCH a badass introduction. Trying to figure out if she had some sort of time travel power when she turned that man into a baby. Her little friendly “Hiya!” in the finale before wrecking everyone’s shit. “DID YOU JUST HIT ME WITH A COLOR STICK? THIS IS ORANGE!” “DONT MESS WITH MY F&$%ING GUNS!” “NOT IF YOUR DEAD!” The INFINITY damage, holy shit.
I-I can’t help it. I am helpless and bi and love her so much. I’ve rewatched the western arc so much JUST for her. And the new closing song that she sings! It’s so perfect, I love it so much 😭
*gathers self* ahem. Besides Zora, I also really love Percy and Ramsey’s chemistry? They worked SO well together! I’m not usually a shipper, but I legit started to ship them! Whether it’s buddy-cops or (non sexual, ‘cause I think Perch’s ace?) romance, I don’t care. I just need more of them together.
Also, mad respect to Ramsey to being literally the ONLY normal person in this show. Like, he may have an epithet, but even HE is baffled by all the chaos around him. I don’t even think Molly is as normal as him.
So, yeah, in summary, Museum arc had that special childlike nostalgic magic, but I rewatch and enjoy the Western arc more, where it gets a tad more adult without changing the shows rating too much!
#more shows like this please!#more general audience cartoons instead of ‘for kids’ or ‘for adults’#also#me holding up women who can kill me: is this a wife?#hey an ask#not art#epithet erased

i apparently enjoy putting down my thoughts on the off chance someone will read it and enjoy it so here’s rwby rewatch vol 3. i’m ready to be sad!!
(note: it’s long i’m sorry, i have many thoughts and i tried to narrow it down but oh boy do i think im funny)
- the SOUND DESIGN. AGAIN
- ruby you’re so precious. so sweet. so eager. so earnest. c’mere and i’ll protect you from all the bad shit that happens to you later
- hi cardboard cutout tai
- i keep getting an ad for a rooster teeth show called camp betrayal and the way this man says “hoo hoo hoo” will haunt me for the rest of time
- oh shit the fact that it’s called amity has such insane implications for what it’s used for later. jesus.
- “bffs!” “No.” “…/yessss/” love them
- yeet the yang
- god ruby’s admiration of emerald is so sad in retrospect like… oh boy ruby you’re in for it
- PYRRHAAAAA I LOVE YOU DONT LEAVE ME
- “even if you know how a story ends, that doesn’t make it any less fun to watch” wow cinder are you psychic
- ummmm they’re having a talk can you please respect their privacy
- thor whomst??? i only know nora valkyrie
- BROODY MAN
- hiiiii gavin
- so much mid battle banter. in the middle of a big important fight they just have to make jokes and argue. i love teenagers
- SILENCE YOU BOOB
- awww winter you’re a disaster and you’re horribly emotionally repressed because of your bitch ass dad but jesus christ you care about your little sister and you wanna know she’s doing okay and i’m emotional about it
- PENNYYYYY my love just keep being you
- jeez i forgot how early on ironwood was talking his shit about being “someone who will act”, the “only person” who will do what needs to be done, as if his course of action is what needs to be done
- every single person who underestimates emerald and mercury gets so fucked up. like so many people look at these youngerish teenagers with some funny one liners and banter and go “oh they seem capable and they’re confident and funny so i like em but i can take em” and then absolutely get the shit kicked out of them. and i think that’s why they’ve been so successful, cause nobody takes them seriously enough to consider them a threat.
- see this is why i love rwby. coco just turned her handbag into a gatling gun and cut down a field of grass with it
- god the way they hint at emerald’s semblance before fully showing what it is. *chef’s kiss*
- winter marry me
- we love an uncle who absolutely destroys his nieces at video games
- “they do and they’re called silver!” ruby i love you
- top heavy. heheh
- this dude’s weapon is a trumpet!! she’s got glowing nunchucks!! i love this show!!
- this battle music is AMAZING what the FUCK they’re fighting to JAZZ
- cinder if you keep having vague ominous dialogue people are gonna get the wrong idea
- oh yeah great idea asking a child to take on immense power which sends her into a stressed out panicky spiral and alienates her from the people she finally feels legitimately connected to and for once didn’t feel alienated from
- oh fuck. oh fuck the finals. oh god. oh no.
- she’s so happy. she’s so ready to have a good fight. i’m gonna cry
- FUCK
- and with one moment, the entire show flipped on its head
- god when i watched that the first time i fuckin freaked. i was not prepared man. i was warned. but i was not prepared for this much of a fucking tone change man. that quickly. like tone changes (in my experience) normally happen gradually, but this one happened in, what? 30 seconds?
- fuck
- god this is so bad
- and it GETS WORSE i can’t do this
- love that we can see yang’s distraught eyebrows through her bangs
- after this episode was the first time my friend asked me “how we doing buddy?” and i’ve only wanted to kill her more since then
- oh god emerald’s backstory. this poor child. she was so alone and cinder was there and said i can give you a place i can give you a purpose i can give you security and emerald latched on so hard.
- hiiiii laura bailey i wish you had more than a lil baby line and some sounds of effort
- god that little anklet
- god what a fuckin backstory episode man. backstory? evil plan explanation? idk but it was good
- great parent move. telling your kid you’ll only save them once.
- jaune you sweet good boy. what a good boy. i love him
- god this poor child. she doesn’t deserve this. FUCK i’m so sad. is that the last conversation they have?
- oooooh shit this song is so good. what the fuck i have chills it’s so fitting
- god everyone else is so happy and excited and then there’s ruby who is one of the very few people who knows how bad a fight between penny and pyrrha could be and pyrrha who’s got to decide if she wants someone else’s aura smushed with hers, which could turn her into a different person. FUCK
- peeeennyyyyy “salutations!! it’s an honor to meet you!” it huuuurts
- it makes me so sad but damn was this a good diabolical plan
- god im so sad. penny is so good. and pyrrha’s fuckin eyes. and ruby just collapsing. jesus christ. it’s all fuckin falling apart
- oh fuck here we go. those klaxons are so terrifying
- it makes me so happy that torchwick gets rescued and then like maybe a couple episodes later just gets swallowed
- the fuckin adam fight is coming up too. jesus. really piling on here
- RUBY IS USING ONE OF PENNY’S SWORDS IM GONNA CRYYY
- and she doesn’t even hesitate to save pyrrha
- the one and only time (to my memory) that ironwood is gentle is when he says no one would blame the students if they left. that might be the last time he actually remembers that they’re all teenagers and feels sympathy for these children with all this pressure on them
- oh yeah the big boy
- the first time i watched this i was LOSING MY MIND this whole time. like yang attacked mercury and from then on man. just freaking out.
- eurgh grimm juice
- c’mon blake you got this. i mean. technically you don’t. the fight goes poorly. but you fuckin try and you’re so brave about it and i love youuu
- shut the FUCK up adam you GROOMED her you ASSHOLE
- aahhhh i love velvet!!! her semblance and her whole fighting style is so goddamn cool and has such interesting implications for using weapons and powers of people who are dead
- OH SHIT SHE DOES SUMMON HERE DOESNT SHE. partly but still
- get fucked, torchwick. GET FUCKED. get fuckin chomped
- a backhanded slap feels so much more violent than any fighting with weapons
- uh oh evil katniss
- god. the fucking blood splatter turning the whole shot red. just their silhouettes. the slow motion. the arm slowly separating.
- my friend was also a big fan of “how we feeling?”
- bad. the answer is bad you fuckin sadist
- oz is… a lot of things, and one of them is a goddamn good fighter
- oh god oh noooo she’s gonna kiss & yeet AWWWW FUCK this is heartbreaking
- pyrrha i love you
- if i don’t look it’s not real
- oh pyrrha my love
- awww hey tai. what a good dad. love tai
- i’m so sad. everyone’s so sad. and then salem just has to do an ominous lil monologue where she lays out her whole plan to divide them and makes a fuckin semblance pun. she’s such a good villain
- jacque you stiff bitch
- they’re all fuckin scattered and depressed
- love team rnjr tho
- there she is. god what an ending
#rwby#rwby spoilers#ruby rose#blake belladona#yang xiao long#weiss schnee#pyrrha nikos#penny polendina#james ironwood#emerald sustrai#cinder fall#i can't tag all the characters cause that's a lot#im in pain#so sad#and it only gets worse#yaaaaaayyy#long post

THE GREAT ND REWATCH OF 2021 / OCTOBER 4, 2019 // the party
again w the first 2 minutes of the next episode to keep the dates 🙏🏻
"if only i could get myself a new father, too" WELL SWEETIE! here ya go! 😅 ("you already have a barbie dad at home" "thats a fake dad, i want a real dad")
-"ohhhhhhh" charlie 😂
-"someone needs a spin on the chore wheel" - i honestly cant see victoria doing the chore wheel. it definitely sounds like a george thing. what if george went to parenting classes with victoria drunk/asleep taking the notes to help raise her sisters
-"with the exception of one vandal" i was SO CONFUSED by this statement for ages but i finally figured it out 😅
-"kate would have been happy to see it" oh nick. if only you knew her truth
-ace surrounded by all these romantic interruptions lmaoooo
-"hi bessie!!" 😍😭💙
-"need any help?" i get that this quote is to show how george has parenting well in hand but this also reminds me of when george went to the beach in ep 2 to help the crew w the morgue and then overheard nancy and nick talking and left
-"with everything that's happened" so does owen know?
-"my closest relative is not my blood relative" i get that shes had like. 12 hours to process this but this statement acknowledges a relationship for nancy and carson not based on blood which is very against what nancy said/felt previously and throughout
-"yours is like a moped with a roof" in ep 3 ryan mocks carson's "dad car" but in the end ryan's the one with the dad car 🙂
-BESS 😂😭🙈 and "lets hope the agleaca doesnt feed off of negative energy" it kinda does tho!
-what was ace decrypting for owen? paperwork diana is going through from the next ep? (similar stuff to tiffany's flashdrive? how did she get thet stuff btw? and when were she and ryan married? how long has she been digging up skulls?)
-ryan omgggggg i hate how his kid has to take control of the situation bc he cant handle adult interaction appropriately (and "i'm sorry for your loss" im sure ryan is sick of that phrase by now) ryan + women/losses v gains : losing lucy, tiffany, george, potentially his mom (disappointed d/t everett) and gaining nancy (and regaining lucy via)
-"do you think you would have tried to-" i really wonder what she was gonna say here. i guarantee it was gonna be some version of "ask for help" as in "do you think you would have tried to get some other adults involved or ask for opinions from a social worker or something" and enter carson & kate. i guarantee she was trying to envision a situation in which ryan had her but carson and kate featured anyway
-ryan vs carson -->nancy<-- ryan vs owen : asking ryan to help save carson (ace/poisoner) / wondering if owen dies here / would ryan have saved carson in that ep if he knew they had taken nancy or would he have treated him like owen and let him die? (also, ryan is weirdly prophetic about owen's death here)
-"what the hell is wrong with you?" ryan to everett and "what is WRONG with you?" nancy to ryan
-"don't blame genetics. because people make choices."
-she seems SO shocked that ryan would actually leave her there after she screamed at him lmaoooo like sis the entitlement
-"i dont even understand some of the words you're using" CARSON 😂
-DIANA damn bc of a wedding speech?? i fuckin love her tho and her actress too soooo classy
-owen: -sees nancy- -immediately dumps other people to go to her- // shades of blue again! (+he wants to introduce her to the family 😭)
-okay but babies DO look alike
-"and are they haunted by lucy sable?" **
-"what if you hadn't needed me?" parallels how nancy wasn't going to be told either- ryan and nancy are equals in their haunting in ways that carson was unequal to nancy in grief. *this and the previous statement i will explain de jure at the end of tomorrows ep to recap the whole season
-"that's the first time i've believed you actually cared about something" vs "finally. a straight answer"
-"are you alright?" she finally doesnt lie
-ryan and carson sizing each other up lmaooo and ace with the save as always
-"they're not my friends" vs "i need you to save my friends"
-nancy's pain during ritual echoes lucy's birth giving (pain & noises) but nancy is with ryan this time while lucy had to go through it alone
-how many fucking times does bess put her foot in her mouth??
•"murderer on the loose" in front of nick
•bess in george's office with ryan
•"you slept with my cousin!" in front of nick
•"george slept with nancys dad" to george
which is honestly contrasted with george, who makes the succinct observations: "you mean do it for you?" "oh, so this is a thing" "you mean rehab?" but george also outs peoples secrets like nancys mom dying and bess's van living to nick (only to nick tho lmaooo 👀🤔)
-so all these portents are things that happened to odette? hair shorn, bound and choked with rope, drowning in water with crabs and maggots crawling all over her, occasional fish hooks getting caught in her as she sinks (+dead in the water being so appropriate here, sadly)
~~~~~
-"i trusted you to be kind but look what it cost me"
and lastly:
-again with the truth telling and the straight up rejection! thats 0/2 lisbeth and john sander cancelling the supernatural
#brooklyn's ND primer#nancy drew cw#the Great Rewatch of 2021#you best start believing in ghost stories moss drew - you're in one

You know what? This has been on the back of my mind for awhile, but PLEASE EITHER POST A LINK TO YOU GOING OF ABOUT YOUR SOUL EATER WORLD BUILDING HEADCANONS, OR RAMBLE AWAY HERE BECAUSE I WANT TO HEAR YOU TALK, ESPECIALLY SINCE PART OF ME WANTS TO KNOW WHY YOU LOVE THE TRASH SWORD!!!!!!???????
KLFSJKFJKDSFKFD
THIS
THIS IS NOT THE ASK I AS EXPECTING TO GET
UMM
UUHHH
I DONT HAVE IT ANYWHERE ONLINE ABOUT WHY I LOVE HIM UM
I NEVER
THOUGHT SOMEONE WOULD ACTUALLY WANT TO KNOW??? UM UM IDK IF I CAN PUT IT ALL IN LIKE ONE POST??? IT'S UM
well, I have a lot of headcanons but the long-short is I just think he’s neat.
Um alright so since you specifically asked tho about Excalibur I can ramble a lil on my thoughts on him??
Alright buckle up; I have no idea how long this will get. Please understand I have been a member of the soul eater fandom since yen plus started translating it into English.
I do not really interact with the fandom (not really sure why I never did/do. I guess it’s just cuz when I got into the fandom I didn’t really have access to fandom spaces and by the time I did I wasn’t really sure about it.)
however, I have cosplayed as both Eurka Frog (and I met Todd Haberkorn!!! I chased him to an elevator and threw a fanart at him and then ran away. I did get him to sign a piece the next day. he’s super nice. I am very distressed I missed a chance to get a signed piece by Troy Baker and I really cannot express how upset I am by this. Like honest to god I am so upset. I had been in line I was ready I was so pumped-- and then my friend was like hey let's go he has a thing tomorrow you can do it then and like an idiot, I did and guess what wasn’t the next day? a troy baker signing. Sighs. He’s not been at any cons I've attended since so I’m so disheartened I will never get my annoying sword autograph) As well as Maka Albarn (IDK if I posted photos or not but I think it’s on my cosplay blog or on twitter)
Anyhow onto Excalibur and why I think he’s a pretty neat character.
We’re going into a read more cuz this is LONGGGGGG
Also Obviously I am going into spoiler territory
I pull info from both the anime and manga when it comes to my personal SE HCs. This is more evident in my Shinigami-Sama/Kishin headcanons but I’ll save those for another post if there’s actually an interest in it (as well as my Chrona is a Genie hc. that one is a shorter HC but yeah.) My friends who’ve sat and listened to me (and my sister who knows the show but isn't invested like I am. Like fun fact is even tho I don't do much fanart; anytime I see soul eater cosplayers or merch I like to get it.) say I’m pretty convincing so lol.
So Excalibur as a whole is set up to be this hella annoying, talks over you, egotistical, member of the great old ones, warlord of anger, most powerful weapon.
(ﺧ益ﺨ)
in both the anime and manga he’s shown to always seem to stick to the same points when he talks. His legend begins in the 12th-century blah blah.
And his ridiculous list to become his meister.
Which set him up to be as you put “trash sword”
But I think it actually helps open something up.
So I, myself am a rambler when I’m nervous or excited. I will reiterate points when I’m frightened or upset (for my I tend to ramble on stupid factoids like octopus or my chronic illness)
And I kinda see this in Excalibur. Not a nervousness per se but that he’s purposely putting up a barrier between him and others.
He’s lonely.
He’s willing to cut down on the list of requirements for Kid and Black Star. Even with Ox he was asking to be taken. And He did partner with Hiro for a time.
He’s been in that cave for a long time. Since Asura pretty much.
How does a weapon who can pair to anyone and is as powerful as he is get shoved into a rock and left there just because he’s “annoying”
This always bugged me.
More so when we get moments later on when he’s like chatting with Death or Kid and he’s actually really serious. Like there’s no pretense, no interrupting. Like yes he does slightly interrupt when they aren’t listening or say something dumb but for the most part you see a completely different side to him.
This is what cemented in my head the fact the whole “annoying” bit is an act he does. He’s capable of emotions. He shows attachment to things like his legend.
Specifically that bit always made me think he really misses King Arthur. Like why else would he always fixate on that? like his legend begins sure but there’s more to it right? he never talks about his time with Shinigami and the old ones. Only his legend and then how he was such a wild child. but it lacks substance. The guy is over 800 years old there should be more he can ramble about.
So here’s where my headcanon takes a weird turn
but I think Excalibur.
Is the sorcerer Merlin.
A man born with a Grigori Soul and the ability to use magic. It’s shown Eibon and Excalibur tended to not get along. and Eibon based the demon weapons on Excalibur but wouldn’t tell him.
Excalibur isn’t counted as a demon weapon. he’s a holy sword.
There is no other record of a weapon like this.
I think Merlin, in an attempt to help his dear friend Arthur with his battles, turned himself into a powerful weapon to aide him. He’s an old one with the power of Madness of Anger. Anger can take many forms including possessive love. Wouldn’t it make sense for someone who knows they are strong to do everything they can for their loved one? I know I’ve been angry enough to kill for the ones I love. Like nothing makes me angrier than someone hurting someone i care about.
I think he was heartbroken to outlive the king. Clearly he doesn’t age and is super focused on the 12th century. I think it really hurt him.
Moving to another point
he’s selfish. Egotistical. but i think it’s another front. Like yes he has some pride obviously. But all his stories involve other people. Shouting fool at anyone who who deems worthy of the name.
People won’t care if you get hurt if you’re a dick.
You can’t get hurt if you aren’t close to people.
If not evidenced by my AHIT oc Eclipse and my baby Kai; I’m a sucker for self sacrificing in the name of love because you don’t see yourself worthy or love. (this is more self projecting than anything but I’m not gonna unpack that here)
I think Excalibur is the same way. he demands to walk in front of people. he wants to be the center of attention. But he won’t get close to others. He’ll take the burden on of being annoying and strong so people focus on him and others can sneak around.
So to sum up my personal headcanons:
Excalibur is a sorcerer named Merlin who had a powerful grigori soul and turned himself into a weapon to aide the man he was close to (and yes I’m 100% suggesting he had romantic feelings for Arthur. but Arthur was for Guinevere so he stood to the side and let them be) He plays up being an asshole because he doesn’t want to lose another person since he outlived Arthur.
Also i didn’t clarify the reason I say he has a grigori soul is due to the facts we know about them. Wings, Halo, purifying, rare. these traits are shared by Excalibur when he’s wielded. I think it’s a pretty cut and dry reason for why I say this ya know?
So Why do I like him?
I think he’s a character who gets written off as a joke superficially but when you sit and reread the manga or rewatch the anime and pay close attention to him; there’s actually a lot there to unpack and enjoy. I think he’s a deep character who puts up a front to protect himself but slowly warms up (I mean heck he’s clearly running around by the end of the manga. and people aren’t screaming)
So thanks for coming to my ted talk I love Excalibur and I don’t care if I’m the only one who does.
Also if curious, my fanstory “Fuller” which has my oc Mira and Excalibur as the main focus actually takes place post Manga and stuff.
Um I guess tho if you want to hear my two cents on anything else soul eater you can ask too I have a bunch of other theories like how Kishin are actually a race not just demonic souls and how soul types show there’s more in the world than we get shown (like look at Free. He’s an immortal werewolf. what’s up with that? and Maka had a Genie hunter during a resonance which means those exist and then there’s teh thing with witches and then blair is a weird existence and just. look. I have a lot of feelings for this even tho I don’t post much on it.)
I just love soul eater okay
#bun rambles#soul eater#excalibur#long post#ummm you asked i answered??? i hope you got what you wanted????#i mean theres clearly more to my hcs like Morganne the witch and her relationship to exclaibur#plus why he looks like a stupid thing#but yeah it was already really long so

hi im yuv and i really started rewatching gossip girl for inspo 18 episodes ago (yeah one whole season i finished A Whole Season) and has done jack shit since 🤡 but i’m HERE....ish....with no pages to show for it but whatever - it’s ok! we move on!! anyway! this is NAM YUHEE, 21, junior @ gosan u and most likely known for being the virgin queen. the devout christian prude who’s always tugging her boyfriend around campus yadadada. i will try my best to provide a very in depth tldr under the cut (esp since i have no pages rn 🤡) but first please smash that like for plots! i also have disc if anyone needs it!!!!
TLDR
caught between new money and old, the nams aren’t exactly known prestige among the rich of gosan as they are known for charitable donations to various charities and functions
their climb towards high society dates back to great granddad nam, who first opened the crafts store with his business partner, growing it into a second location, then eventually a chain all over sk (think korean hobby lobby!)
yuhee, as the youngest in a family of four and therefore the baby, is pretty much spoiled throughout her life (in exchange for absolute obedience) - so to say she’s weak spine’d and unable to survive a day without the comfort of money is 100% accurate
mom and dad are very “nice” people, their public image are kind, charitable, devout people with two perfect little daughters who attend saturday evening and sunday morning mass with them without fail
yuhee herself has spent her entire life keeping up with that image. prim, perfection, not one hair out of place. good grades, lots of extracurriculars, you know the works. from ages 0 to 17~, her life is more about impressing her parents than living it the way she wants to
nowadays, she’s a bit of a party-girl (within reason). the kind of girl to go out and get a little wild saturday night fresh out of mass and still make it to sunday mass next day. trying to hide her “party girl” image behind the church girl buff while also knowing fully well that with every passing day, she cares less and less about whether or not her parents find out (or so she says)
TRIVIA
has been seeing the same guy since she was in middle school (childhood friends turned arranged...marriage type deal??), yuhee’s basically already dubbed him her one and only in her head. pretty much ready to spend the rest of her life with him like mom and dad wants, though, what she’s not sure about is where his head is at (and, if she’s completely honest with herself, she’s restless. too restless)
reputation is everything to her (because it does to her parents, so, naturally), so she’s thus far been very careful with who she’s seen with in public—if only to keep up with the image she’s worked so hard to make for herself
volunteers often, especially during the holidays. it’s imperative she makes herself “known” even at school, so it’s very likely that she’s on some kind of committee/student council.
plays off that nice girl act, though she’s kind of prudish and judgmental (also has a temper and is extremely vindictive)
has some sort of inferiority complex toward her sister, but let’s not talk about it!
parties, but never lets it get too far (100% likes to be in control of the situation)
she’s not much of a frugal person, flings money around as she likes, shops a lot (highkey thinks money can solve everything, which cmon, is she really wrong?) - the usual rich girl formula yk
overall — what can i say? she’s nice, but she isn’t. a good daughter, but she isn’t. a good girlfriend, but she isn’t. in general, she’s more so in the middle of finding herself (in life, in how she wants to live it, etc)—and teetering start not caring about who she has to step on to do it.
CONNECTIONS
need... guy she cheated on her bf with... no age req (but if it’s someone close in age/at gosan u with them then it would be kinda *chefs kiss*)
im brain farting so mf hard please give me the college bff!!!!!!!!!!!
BIBLE STUDY CLUB OF FELLOW SUPER RELIGIOUS RICH KIDS WHO ARE ALL LYING ABOUT WHAT THEY REALLY DO ON SAT NIGHT
u made eyes at her boyfriend once and she cut up your valentino
similarly, her boyfriend made eyes(?) with u once and she dropped your bag in the school fountain
party buddy like she’ll only speak to you at parties when shes drunk but otherwise dont @ her type of buddy
im open to anything Please Help Me

netflix: a christmas prince trilogy as a whole gets an 9\10 rating. as i stated here , ACP\ rose mciver, should get more credit for the influx of neflix christmas movies. ACP did so well among viewers that it got an 2 additional movies despite the third one not getting as much social media attention as hudgen’s last two xmas movies.
below i break down each one.
a christmas prince #1: i liveblogged this one when it came out old posts can be found here--however upon rewatches (bc i rewatched them in preparation for the third one) it gets much better bc you as the viewer have accepted the what’s about to happen and will not reject certain scenes like prom coronation or marriage proposals when there was no actual prior relationship. it still manages to make you happy. the best thing about ACP 1? the relationship between amber and the prince’s little sister emily. if there is ever a 4th movie, it should be about richard dying and emily getting the throne and amber helping her prepare for it. 6.9\10
a christmas prince #2: a royal wedding: this one is better than the first one bc it better establishes a relationship between amber and richard. there is drama. amber is allowed to get mad at richard and richard, in a fictional world, admits he was wrong and decides to grow a pair. there is redemption for the cousin that tried to take the throne. amber’s best friends are allowed to call her out that her life cant be that sad or complicated bc she is rich now. emily is even allowed to call out her own brother for being not putting his fiancee first. amber, like in the first movie, figures out what’s really going on. she’s very much a down low royal investigative reporter. and they do get married at the end however--i hated her dress. i dont even think the style suited the character but aside fm that...7.5\10.
and lastly...
a christmas prince #3: the royal baby: i already said its a 9\10 and its because its about a curse. rose mciver really believes there could be a curse on this baby if they dont find this old parchment treaty. her dedication to this plot...where is her emmy?? bc i believed her. i believed she was worried about this curse. its a ridiculous plot but she sells it. also, netflix gave them a better budget bc amber’s queen wardrobe was 100x better than the last two movies combined. (the honeymoon greenscreen scene however...that’s the only proof that we have that amber and richard had sex and even then...questionable).
ACP #3 lets you see the main couple married but like, these movies are not really about amber and richard. they’re about amber and how she reacts to things. richard is an afterthought by the writers and im fine with that. richard is not why ppl these movies. it’s amber and whatever royal plot she has to investigate with supporting characters .
the one fucked up thing about this ACP #3 tho is...the person who hid the cursed treaty parchment is the same person who allowed amber to stay as a tutor in the first movie. he’s the reason that amber and richard met. they made him be culprit in ACP #3--they send him to jail. that’s fucked up. hilarious, but fucked up.
is the ACP trilogy good at the romance aspect? not really. at the core, these movies arent about that. richard is important but he’s not the main attraction. (i would go on to say that the ACP writers dont really care about men in general as even amber’s father is written one-dimensional but i digress) it’s about amber and how she deals with things. it’s entertaining to watch her investigate these (sometime ridiculous) plots with her friends and her (little) sister in law. i would even go on to say the best developed relationship is these movies is the one between amber and emily.
anyway, the ACP trilogy was entertaining and i wont terribly mind if the make a 4th thats about like, royal preschool or something. i dont care as long as rose mciver’s there.

Okay. I’ve allowed a night to let everything sink in. I’m ready to talk about Endgame now.
*cinemasins voice* spoilers!! (duh..)
so the wounds are still fresh. v v v v v v v v v fresh. but my thoughts during the entire movie were just OMG IM TRYING TO REMEMBER EVERY SINGLE THING THAT IS HAPPENING SO I CAN REMEMBER IT AS LONG AS POSSIBLE BEFORE i inevitably go see this movie again
This is what the movie reduce me to like 99% of the time btw
now, I’m gonna try and break this up to be as organized as possible into 4 main sections which will be general thoughts, the highs, the lows, and closing thoughts. that may sound organized but I promise it won’t be and as always I’ll have to use bullet holes to even stay relatively "organized"
I'm sure I'm leaving stuff out that I either loved or would wanna discuss but tbh the ENTIRE FILM i was just like GOD I WANNA REMEMBER THIS FOREVER!! Every scene that happened i was like god there's still 3 hours of stuff that's going to happen but I want to remember it all!!!
Overall
this movie was good. and i’m mad it was so good and i found it so enjoyable for how dirty they did me. The pacing was pretty well done for a first viewing, but I'm sure after a couple rewatches I'll get caught up on the occasional misstep in the pacing and general direction the story took, but I really liked it!!
I thought the Thor stuff was kinda distasteful and honestly a joke that ran too long. Like ha ha okay we get it but also? He went through so much fucking trauma can we just lay off him? Damn? I don't wanna linger too much on it bc honestly the more I think about it the more I get upset the russos did him dirty
all the callbacks??? made me so emotional????? eleven years and almost two dozen films guys holy fucking shit it felt like such a good homage to bring stuff back
Yo literally when they went up to busted ass thanos i leaned over to my bf and whispered "are they just gonna kill thanos in the first ten minutes is that allowed" and uh YEP! WOW
Also the opening scene being Clint's family getting dusted... gasps in my theater y'all they went in hard on us
TIME HEIST!!!!!! FUCK marvel knows how to take you on a fun journey!! The concept was so fun!!
I also appreciate them mixing up the plot a bunch to keep us guessing!! Like fuck, when Thanos was finding out through Nebula... future nebula talking to past gamora i was SO SOFT... sisters...
Hulk was... weird. It felt a weird kind of fanservicey for a little bit, and honestly a little out of place? But. Eh. Wasn't the worst part. Certain parts of it were fun! I think I got used to it haha
Everyone looked. So good. After the time jump. Damn. Thank you make up department for everyone's new looks. I live for silver fox tony always.
I loved seeing Loki again i know it was so little content BUT I DONT CARE I'LL ALWAYS LOVE MY FUCKING PRINCE
We didn't get as much Nebula and Tony content as I was hoping but god it was so cute and tender in the beginning. Imagine all that bonding. Nebula finding tony on the floor, knowing he's on the brink of death, and propping him up in the seat :'(((( tony helping fix nebula :(((( the father daughter relationship we deserved and didn't get to see come to fruition.
AMERICA'S ASS. THANK YOU SCOTT LANG.
All the New York flash back was so fucking fun. The elevator scene. Brilliant. I really thought they were gonna recreate but it was such a fun tease. Also cap making fun of his past self for saying "i could do this all day" I SCREAM why do the Russo's get steve so well
Carol taking a direct punch in the face from Thanos without even flinching? We stan a goddess
ALSO SHORT HAIRED CAROL YESSSS I LIVED!!!!! YES!!!! (But also that movie could've used like way more Carol thats just mY OPINION)
Also AGAIN, I DON'T CARE THAT IT WAS FAN SERVICE, STEVE WEILDING MJOLNIR WAS E V E R Y T H I N G. They have TEASED US since that one middle avengers movie we don't talk about that he was worthy and!!! Our!! Son!! Is!! Fucking!!! Worthy. And the scene of thor making him swap w/ him "you get the little one" i screamed bitch
also I was living for how much Steve swore in this film lol literally fuck joss Whedon's characterization we don't know her!
Valkyrie on a Pegasus thank you THANK YOU i was living
That entire final action scene..... holy fucking shit y'all. It was just crazy enough without being too crazy. I loved the callback to the original long continuous shot
THE HEAVENS OPENED UP AND SANG WITH THAT A-FORCE SCENE. YES. ALL THE MARVEL LADIES LINING UP. THEY ARE HERE AND THEY ARE THE STRONGEST OF US ALL. A-FORCE. FUCKING A-FORCE. Thank you Russo's for my LIFE
Carol's little "hi peter parker :)" god i love them. I love peter. My fucking spider son. I missed him so much. I missed Tom Holland's sweet peach little face AH I CRIED WHEN HE SHOWED BACK UP
Also last kind of ~general~ thought i know i don't get time travel at all and it is an instant way to confuse me in any franchise but wouldn't steve doing what he did fuck literally everything up idk we'll get to steve in a bit
Highs
morgan
H.
fucking
stark
I CAN’T BELIEVE I GOT FED WITH SUCH GOOD TONY CONTENT THIS FILM ONLY FOR THEM TO STOMP ON MY HEART LMAOOO
DAD TONY BEING AS LOVING AND DOTING AND SWEET AND TENDER W/ HIS DAUGHTER AS WE ALL HAVE HEADCANONED HIM TO BE FOR YEARS!!!
TONY GETTING HIS JUSTIFICATION IN BEING MAD not just mad but PISSED at Cap for how everything fell out. catharsis. felt good scoob.
speaking of good tony content of course i need to just take a moment to YELL ABOUT STONY thank you russos for the fan service thank you for having tony ogle and comment on steve rogers’ ass it almost makes up for all the pain and suffering
btw do y’all think the H. for Morgan’s middle name stands for Harley because I LIKE TO THINK SO
also am i lowkey annoyed that like half of viewers won’t recognize an adult ty simpkin at tony’s funeral at the end even tho i know i shouldn't be because ot everyone is a die hard BUT half the articles im looking up for reviews and shit of that scene literally all the results are “SO WHO IS THAT KID AT THE END OF ENDGAME” YOU FUCKING FOOLS IT’S TONY’S FIRST BORN SON HARLEY KEENER FROM IRON MAN 3. FUCKS. im getting off topic anyway i was just happy they brought him back because I am an iron man 3 enthusiast and his relationship with tony was SO important and this confirms that at the very least tony kept in contact with him over all these years!!! and he wasn’t just some insignificant blip
Not to be stony on main but steve being the first person to hold Tony again once he was back on earth :)))) wrow.
Also the first thing tony telling him being "I lost the kid" WOW BREAK MY HEART MORE HUH!! WHY NOT!!
The first thing Peter doing when he saw Tony again :'') just rambling about everything that happened and tony just so happy to see him alive and hugging him so tight I'M NOT FINE!! NOTHING WILL EVER BE FINE AGAIN!!!
I appreciated the closure with Howard like?? A lot?? I'm the last person to be a Howard stark apologist, but I think his character and his relationship w/ Tony and how Tony viewed him as a father and as a man was so well crafted throughout the series??? Idk I liked that scene it was good to my baby.
And now a pOSSIBLY CONTROVERSIAL~~ opinion but..... I loved Steve's ending. I really did. I thought he got a beautiful and fitting ending and I was so happy. It meant so much especially to hear his reasonging being that in a way, he did it for Tony. He was inspired by what Tony told him. He saw Tony get his happy ending and for so many films now Steve has been searching for that and he missed an entire life. Tony helped him realize that. It just made me!! So emo!! Like Bucky's face when he knew Steve wasn't gonna be coming back. Steve's last convo w/ Sam. It was just amazing. I can't believe I'm seeing hot takes from people calling Steve selfish or blaming the fact that the Russos have a boner for Steggy or whatever. Who cares!!! Steve got his happy ending and it was well deserved and a wonderful arc!! Lay off him bc you ship him w/ Bucky or tony more damn!!!! (Idk about the timeline y'all dont come for me i really have no idea i think the Russos just said fuck it for that one even when talking about not fucking up the timeline)
Lows
Natasha deserved better. She did. I understand why they took her character arc the way that they did, and honestly, this is the first time I've felt we've seen Natasha have even a modicum of actual character traits since like, Iron man 2 and Avengers 1. She found purpose in keeping the family together and trying to help the people left living, while never stopping or losing contact with anyone else in their endeavors to fix what Thanos broke. As tired as I am of seeing a female character die for ~man pain~ this felt like so much more than that. In the end Nat wanted to sacrifice herself for the greater good, and that's what she did. I'm still fucking upset though, even though they've butchered her character across almost all the films she's been in
Thor being turned into an entire fucking joke. That's it. I got nothin left for the writers at this point.
So..... let's talk about Tony's death, shall we
"You can rest now" broke me. It truly did. I've never loved any fictional character across any medium as much as I have loved Tony Stark. But Pepper's line at the beginning "you'll sleep, but will you rest?" Is so fucking telling. I think I immediately knew for sure in that moment. Because she's right. And that's the worst part.
Peter :)))) finally :)))) calling :))))) tony :)))) by :)) his :)))) first :)) name :))) as he was dying :)))) asking him not to go the same way he told tony he didn't want to go when he was getting dusted GOD. AND WE THOUGHT THAT SCENE IN INFINITY WAR WAS ROUGH. HAD N O T H I N G ON THIS.
No offense but where was Rhodey when Tony was dying lmao ok
That funeral scene.... seeing everyone there drawn together..... god. It was beautiful. It really was.
Of course I'm not happy. I'm extremely fucking upset. I knew tony wielding the gauntlet would be coming, but I thought they would find a way for him to make it out alive. As soon as they were showing that even the hulk couldn't handle it with the gamma radiation, I knew the nail was going to be in the coffin.
All that aside... what I can say, is that if they HAD to kill him off, I think it was a proper send off. We saw so many arcs of Tony's come to a close, and I knew it was just a matter of time. Also that being said, I really don't believe in death being necessary to end a character's arc. Yeah yeah blah blah we get the sad and tragic but TRUE message that at the end of the day death is inevitable and that tony had to sacrifice himself for the greater good. He and Strange both knew it, and as soon as Strange held up that finger I knew that was it for him.
It wouldn't be so hard if they hadn't given us everything they did with tony after the 5 year jump. He healed. He was HAPPY. But pepper was right, and as long as Tony was alive... he would never truly /rest/. And that's the only way I'm able to make peace with this death. Tony has always been a character who was just going going going, never going to stop even if it killed him, all to protect the ones he loved, and protect the whole world and make it a better place. He had a beautiful story that was told so well over these past eleven years, with admitted shortcomings here and there. He had the most cohesive trilogy films, the best character development and arcs, and an incredible portrayal. I'm grateful for it, but that doesn't make it any easier that they decided to go and show us that Tony was able to FINALLY settle down with Pepper and see him find the best version of himself as a husband to her and a father to his little baby girl. A baby girl that now has to grow up without her dad, and pepper has to go on without her husband, the love of her life. It's fucking tragic and honestly, we didn't need that imho lmao
The hardest parts is that like.... idk. I feel like the only reason they killed him is for shock factor, but somehow without the shock? A lot of us felt or were worried that this was coming. I think the russos and co. We're just totally set on the idea that like... tony HAD to die and that was the only way for this arc to come to a close not just WITHIN the universe, but meta, outside of the MCU as well. They did the same thing with Hugh jackman as Logan and that shit HURTED me y'all. Eleven years we had RDJ give us this amazing character and he is the SOLE reason the MCU is where it is today. So you know what, the Russo's and everyone can circle jerk about how much ~poetic justice~ there is in this ending for Tony, but at the end of the day... it just ain't it fam.
Realistically I know after wielding the infinity stones there is no way Tony, a human, could've survived, even with his armor on. I knew that. And as biased as I am towards seeing Tony living, if he had wielded the stones and NOT died? It would've felt cheap. So again, if they had to end his life, I appreciate the way they did it and thought it was the best send off they could've given him. I also would've appreciated some kind of alternate option where oh i dont know carol or someone strong enough could've handled the snap and tony could live the rest of his days with his wife and daughter and found family but..... ig that's just me huh.
:(((( Happy asking Morgan what she wanted and her saying "cheeseburgers" SHE'S JUST LIKE HER DADDY I AM SO!!! UPSET!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
And last thought is that I fucking cried AGAIN because the biggest applause moment was during the credits when RDJ's name appeared. My theater gave a standing damn ovation. Also the very last sound after it faded to black... Tony hammering away, building the very first Iron Man suit.... that shit hurted.
If any of y'all read this and wanna yell about stuff w/ me I WELCOME YOU INTO MY DMS LMAO PLS MESSAGE ME I NEED MORE PEOPLE TO CRY WITH!!!

Baby Reacts to the Latest Steven Bomb
SPOILERS
So apparently we’re getting the obligatory beakup/ couples-first-argument storyline
It seems to me that Steven’s optimism and rose tinged glasses are being adressed as a character flaw... and let me tell ya, it IS, or at least can be no matter how much our current society worships “positivity”. A person who wants to pretend their problems dont exist isnt always inclined to see yours, even if they are otherwise a generous and nice person.
my mother has this particular flaw and while i love her to bits (after all there are no perfect humans),this has at times very frustrating for my sisters and I.
and ohhh political unrest!
MODERN political unrest as in how it is changed by internets & stuff
there were certainly some analyzeable lines in there
who knew granny pizza gave such good speeches?
a lesser show would just have pulled a new character out of their sleeves instead of grabbing a random sensible cast member wth some leadership ability
aww steven not everything is your fault
thats one way to end the episode...
ep 2
im not surprised that Lapis wants to bail after all she’s been through but i expected more of a reaction from peridot like wasn’t she resolved to protect the earth join the rebellion and stick it to the diamonds?
i mean i was never among the ones who claimed she had been sillyfied but if this doesn’t get mentioned later imma be upset this was THE opportunity for conflict/character nteraction/ serious content here
Ohh OHH I take it all back I see where this is going
She does actually want to help the rebellion, but her “follower” tendencies wouldn’t completely go away because shes in a new situation and she may have been a tad overwhelme finding herself caring for someone who was recovering from so much punishment so she’s walking on eggshells around lapis now
Onions Onions lol
So they’re playing off the expectation that they’re this comey duo now but subverting it
In the end they did stay true to Peridot’s character here like of COURSE she wants to stay and fight everything weve seen from her so far would suggest it
aww poor bby the thing with ddoing the right thing is there’s not always a reward
Is that a sort of relationship deconstruction, conclusion? I may need to rewatch things & see if there was always a tedency for ‘Dot to accomodate Lapis perhaps by acting all silly, i mean they were abvle to have at least silly arguments in “the crsytal temps”
I emphasize with Peridot here I mean when you’re less affected and the other person went through something you couldn’t imagine and someone ~should~ be there to help them your own concerns start looking insignificant
Also she may feel some residual guilt for kind of dragging Lapis into this...
Then again having ‘Dot in the temple may mean more screentme especially as the Diamond’s arrival drawn nearer
Again the contrast here is interesting - Peridot is much weaker in terms of powers but has a personality suitable to fighting whereas Lapis for all her power is just plain terrified
So far the eps have been meaty enouh compared to the long stretch of calm-before-the-storm town episodes we’ve had but they haven’t even talked-over the big developements of the last bomb or the very promising trailer clips with Greg, Pearl and the others.
Indeed, distinct lack of Garnet, Amethyst and Peal so far wouln’t they have something to say about the Lapis situation?
Though mybe that is meant to emphasize this arc of Steven taking all responsibility onto himself instead of going to them like he would have earlier - it isn’t just Lapis, he hasn’t talked to them about the Connie Situation either
ep 3
It’s Greg! That at least seems like a promising sign
Texting feels
Aww even around Greg he’s this worried about effing everything up
I like the narration of the texts
Likefinally a show that instead of being “you kids with your trinkets” explores the emotional dimensions these things have become involved with
Aaand of course Greg notices * sigh * if only there were more dads like Greg in this world
And he doesn’t even push it, just “do you want to talk about it” Oh Greg you wondrous human
The house! Haven’t seen it in ages
So Greg probably mobilized the gems into cheering Steven up. They DO notice & care
lol Garnet
They try and its precious after what felt like long empty eps in which its just Steven and his thoughts, playing the “responsible” role
“a projection of the self compared to the intended delivery of the writers” lol Best joke in ages and i dont even like meta jokes that much
Ronaldo has never been so relatable
“Cool Ranch”
Steven is RLY feeling those angsty teenage years atm not too long ago he would have been super excited about this
Same observation as with Roses’ scraps I guess
And its painful because its a logical consequence of what he’s been through but on the other hand the wonder and appreciation were always what we loved about Steven?
Now he’s even dismissing extra info
PD and everyone else’s past selves just drooping as the explanation is cut off tho
I guess he’s trying hard to be mature about it and accept it; Demanding xplanations would contain a morself of curiosity or accusation
But II wanted to here, stevieboy
Its rly heartbreaking how different hes acting from... “his usual self”? IDK man maybe its jut the adult-er version of him which is not what I’d want it to be but it could nonetheless be true
OHH and now it gets RLY RL again
The parenting conversations, Greg being all out of his depht and yet very much worried for Steven’s wellbeing
Pearl continues to have some particular hangup about the PD situation
Pearl as the most rooted in homeworld society is surely not helping, portraying it as a “not that bad “ question & still believing in some of the mysticoism of their society even if she’s rejected the beliefs themselves
Now we KNOW there’s a secret there
But alas, Steven was dealing with a way more humany-teenagery problem there...
Baby’s first breakup
Human Dad to the rescue!
Aand at long last ther’s some adressing of the whole thing in a holistic way that separating it into “gem stuff and human stuff” would not have accomplished
And off COURSE it was ronaldo
the best ep so far
aww family cuddles
lets hope that was an actual shooting star and not the incomming diamonds
ep 4
lol dat grungey morning sequence esp the minimalistic ear
And using the kitchen sink b/c Dot lives in the bathroom now
The Amethyst approach to music
Aaand of course Zuke couldn’t help piling on the breakup aesthetic even though the last ep was going a different direction?? IDK man
But Dotty listening to sad music when sad is very relatable and yet more proof that wre long lost soul sisters
Was she holed up in there during the vacation tho? I guess those conversations happened offscrean to preserve the feeling of isolation in Steven’s Pov
“Uuuugh...” DAT Face too too memetastic not to laugh
I think I would ignore this if the knowledge of the backstage drama and agenda pushing didn’t leave a bad taste in my mouth
And I mean look at that relatable overdramatic grean bean the whole sequence is weirdly perf
“Whats the poooint...”
I felt compelled to admire this magnificence several times over
The unhelpful purple has now graduated to agressively tryng too hard purple
I love how Amethyst wants to go revisit & reframe everything now that she’s gotten this different POv on it and feels better about herself
“You can make us feel dumb by telling us stuff we don’t know!” She knows Peridot well XD Such wholesome friendship
Dotty doesn’t even deny it
Gotta love Amethyst
Aww its that train from back then!
Even the musical allusion
“Very convenient Warp Pad”
My lil purple has come so far
So apparently “-”Dot” is canon now
Oh. OHHH
Right we saw that Dot was actually proud of her job but I guess this is also a reframing for HER something SHE now views differently. It used to be like the birds & bees for her, but now...
Thank you , day saving flower
WH0000T I thought the plot had forgotten about Peridots “renewable energy” pland she mentioned to YD and how this could revolutionize the Gempire but it seems Dotty is going to DO SCIENCE again
You know shes down when not even the traktor RLy cheers her up
Steven & amethyst tho
This whole project holds a deep almost “spiritual” significance for all three of them when you think about it, a kind of purification
the shovel thing was so cute
Super soakers!
The Ame-Copter is back
Loving this ep
Stylish Garden flamingo
The hyping is already making me think it didn’t take; Dot was right that they should hve analyzed the flower first
Called it.
Ohh... didnt see THAT coming tho
Its like a corrupted anglerfish
I wonder if that used to be an amethyst
Ohh its a surprise smokie ~<3
not an amethyst maybe but purplish enough to be another former resident
Of course it wasn’t going to work overnight nothing ever does
but hey, hugs~
and perhaps thats just the setup for an ongiong plot arch still this could have used more of a sciencey approach
ep 5
Well judging by the title sadie is prolly heartbroken too
She prolly is but shes holdig up well enough
And hey at least Steven seems to be feeling better
Perhaps hiring a new donut boy would not have been that bad of an idea
This is surprisingly real
The whole crappy american millenial job situation
Steven is... REALLY bad at this
Lets appreciate that Sadie had a surprisingly deep character arc just trickling there heding everyting away so her mom don’t hijack it, pining away after an asshat to an unhealthy degree until she eventually just stopped obsessing over it all and letting her own self shine?
Also nice treatise on the process of art
ep 6
Soo... Kevin’s back? That sounds... interesting... especially in the light of the whole breakup situation, he was usually Stevonnies designated rival but they`re unlikely to be in the ep
Is he gonna try to recruit Steven to dudebroism in his moment of weakness? That sounds interesting bc as much as pickup artists, MRM scum redpillers ETC are frightening evil, to stop them one has to understand how they spread and what they often do is prey on young men with low self esteem - young men who don’t feel very privileged, are desperatre unhappy youngsters etc so they make themselves sound reasonable at first (at least to those who dont recognize their sales pitch/ rhetoric) to exploint natural curiosity, skepticism and a tendency to support supressed truth to then feed a person all sort of bullshit untill they blame women for all their problem - actually racists and other hategroups are much the same
They offer group identity, recognition & confidence to those who dont have it - So when it comes to fighting them, “immunizing” young boys against their salespitches with information and knowledge is just as important as fighting its most malignant supporters if not more but that doesn’t rly get as much attention bc bashing obvious evil people is satisfying and people who have been hurt & traumatized and had real harm done to them may find it hard to sympathize with young men... clearly its not the victims who need to do the work but society and those who raise & educate boys at every step of the way if society could be arsed to care
Ehh I should probably stop ranting and watch the actual episode
Should you really be giving Kevil your number?
“my crush will be at the party” is such an old cliche so the question is how exactly theyll subvert it
Unknown faces all around, prolly the less friendly side of town god job at establising the uneasy ambiance
Is that a BREAKUP HAIRCUT?
Ohhh the music slowing down the background fading away
So steven is one of those ppl who just keeps texting the void and connie is one of those pp who don’t
And I’ve been in this situation and im with connie here like if the relationship is not working because of legitimate reasons, are those reasons going to go away just because you cave and text the person back? Why would anyone keep texting like the problems will magically go away, or text back, what could the result be other than causing you both more pain
Like I understand it ttheoretically in a “humans process feelings differently” kind of way and im not bashing on Steven here but ill never understand-understand it
Conclusion: again this show gets real
Kevin is such a platonical ideal of an asshat, you almost gotta admire the purity of his asshattery
Case in point he cannot understand the friendship component
Meanwhile of course conny has been having her own private freakout
And they didnt go the cliched angle of forcing the fusion right then & there
So I suppose this made sense as a miniarc and had some pretty real moments & necessary explorations though I do want to get back to the plot now
Soo lets see whom the fandom has decided to hate and distort THIS time...

I rewatched 5.09 aka The 2016 Christmas Special
I officially have done nothing productive all day. I did finish rewatching The Nanny though if that counts 😂😂 I forgot how much it made me laugh. Anyway I’m randomly in the mood to watch the 2016 Christmas special so why not post? Btw this will be long af this IS incredibly long but I just had so many thoughts ya’ know?
Ah I’m excited again, this was such a great special don’t @ me

“What you did I did, where you go I go..” excuse me while my heart fucking melts 😭😭
I remember watching this Christmas Day & my mom and I did the same sigh and “aww” expression at that line
She loves the show and is going to be shook when she watches series 6 lol
Also like Shelagh’s dress is so cute I’m here for it
Lmaoo I was wondering for so long beforehand why tf they brought Fred?? They Need those engineering skills apparently

What is Patrick whispering to Shelagh? 👀👀
That’s almost right up there with what in the actual fuck did he write in those letters to get her to ditch the habit and wimple 😉😏😉 NO BUT FOR REAL WHAT DID HE SAY? We’ll never know *sigh*
I’m here for everything Trixie wears lets be real
LOL SISTER JULIENNE BASICALLY TELLING BABS SHE CANT BE FOOLING AROUND WITH HER MAN OVERSEAS
don’t even argue that she’s making a big deal with any of that “he’s a vicar, she’s a vicar’s daughter, they don’t believe in premarital sex” either cause they were making out in public before and he was grabbing her ass in a CONVENT Lmaooo (good for him he’s not letting god stop him😂) jk I’m going to hell for all the jokes I’ve made through out this show anyway
I feel though, so im letting them live
But still the married couple barely touch each other 😂 so I’m a little salty *pretend there’s a salt shaker emoji* Fu*k it though
Also Patsy and Delia have been together for a while and haven’t kissed either as far as I remember
BEATRIX FRANKLIN SLAYING AS ALWAYS 😍😍 love her coat and glasses and everything she is
And yikes that swimsuit babs lol
There’s Patsy! With the horrible horrible wig :/
Sister MJ with the Christmas cake 😭😭 aye bendito she just wants to share it
How rich with alcohol is it sister? Pass it over
By guys🙋🏼 we out this Bitch ✈️🚢
The music makes me so happy 😭❣️
“Look at you Barbara! brussel sprout green” Lmaoo ew I hate Brussel sprouts and also throwing up in general😂 sorry babs you’re gross rn
Legit I have not thrown up since I was like 8, I refuse to let myself 😭😂and 3 semesters in to university and lots of parties and drinks I’ve never actually thrown up (been pretty close though haha) *knocks on wood so I don’t jinx it*
I love Phyllis. Have I said that yet??
“..do you have anything to stop my mascara from running” lol I am Trixie
but was there no waterproof mascara yet?
uh oh here comes the asshole sergeant (I think it’s the same guy as later on?), and Tom is so reasonable lol
Shelagh’s hat with the flowers lol, but yes her cute summer dress love it, glad she only took one cardigan 😂
Lol when the sergeant tells Trixie don’t smile 😂😂
yes Dr Myra pulled up, I thought she was kinda bitchy at first and still kinda do but she’s tough and badass so I’m here for it

And again Trixie’s dress, it’s so pretty I want it😭😭
And again I’m Trixie, talking about needing a face mask 😂
lol Babs you smell like grajo 😂
Phyllis sniffing her 😂 “you’ve had enough barley sugar and sympathy”
The spider 😂 I don’t like spiders so I relate lol & Barbara killing it and coming at Phyllis with the clapback “there’s venom on it and some backbone”
Why do I find the linen habits funny?
Aw Shelagh “it’s at times like this I wonder what would Sister Evangelina do” I’m so glad she brought her up
Rip sister E 😰
I feel like Patrick would still feel hot in that linen suit, like it’s still a suit lol? same with the nuns but like they have no other choice
Alright I’ll give Dr Myra that though asking about radium treatment was naive of Patrick
Fred is so funny though 😂 leaving his mark by shaving lol
Throwback to Shelagh’s og bri nylon nightgown’s first appearance 😉
“What’s all this” LOL about to be the cause of this miraculous conception that’s what 😂
“It’s made of a new material called bri nylon..” Shelagh is so cute and genuinely wanting to explain 💕
Lol like cmon u know Patrick probably doesn’t give a fuck and is gonna take it off
Of course Trixie would be mad she didn’t get to set her hair
“That hat covers a multitude of sins” that’s legit one of my fav Barbara lines 😂😂
Shelagh is the only one who brought the belt to her uniform because she’s Shelagh & has to look calm, cool, collected and professional lol
Phyllis’s kink: rolodex systems 📇
lol I really do like Dr Myra, making Patrick feel dumb and I don’t care
“..and they live in a society that is gradually stripping them of any dignity or freedoms they ever had..” again I like Dr Myra a lot. I didn’t really think she had a white savior complex as some people thought because she wasn’t trying to change anything just to help. She even says later on she does it for their need not her beliefs
Proud of Babs for learning xhosa phrases
Just watching this man run makes me tired & he has like tb right? yup
LOL PHYLLIS IS LIKE DO I LOOK SCARED? kicking Fred out the drivers side 😂
“I’m all for persistence in the face of adversity” I loved this scene between Trixie and Roza 😭💕 too bad I didn’t know I was gonna end up sobbing later
Did the nurses and everyone know how bad Apartheid was?
“We have to bloom where we are planted” VANESSA REDGRAVE SAID A VARIATION OF THIS IN THE SERIES 2 CHRISTMAS SPECIAL WHEN MY BBY SHELAGH WAS GETTING READY BEFORE THE WEDDING I REMEMBER
Damn tho Dr Myra didn’t have to yell at the lady :/
THE SCENERY THOUGH, I WANT TO GO TO SOUTH AFRICA
Phyllis learned some xhosa too and im not surprised, she does it all
“Do you have the means to protect this mother and myself” no, “Then I don’t wish to hear anymore about it” PHYLLIS IS HARDCORE SHE DOES NOT GIVE ANY SHITS I LOVE IT
Aw Tom watching babs with the baby
lol I’m not ready for them to have a kid so I hope they wait a series at least
“NURSE BUCKLE” im cryin laughing 😂 I need more of the Phyllis and Fred dynamic
She just had a baby IN THE MIDDLE OF NO WHERE, YES THE MOTHERS ARE HEROINES
“Hells teeth” lol Patrick tried to make hells bells a thing but we know it can’t compare
Trixie serving another look, but whats new? But yes girl you watch those c-sections you’re up to the plate soon!
Haha she’s gonna teach Babs how to smoke
“They aren’t good for you, and the pair of you should know that” YES PHYLLIS WHY DOESNT TRIXIE KNOW OR CARE?
LOL SISTER WINIFRED we know you’re a red head
Idc, sister W used to smoke. I know it 😂 she was living it up before joining the order and lowkey while she’s been a nun, I just want to know her real name?
Of course Shelagh is worried about the lack of records but aye there’s the dress from 6.03 that magically fit even though her uniform didn’t 🙃?
“Typhoo, we brought it with us” YES I HAVE IT & I KNOW WHAT IT IS NOW & CAN RELATE
This scene with Roza & Constance & the nurses + sister W was so sweet I loved it 💕
“Why you should never be sorry, just be glad” 😭😭 there must be something in my eye that’s why it’s watery
Lol aw Trixie saying sister Winifred don’t go yet
Sister Winifred dancing 😂 go to compline
I lowkey have the sister Bernadette unhappy with being a nun vibes from sister Winifred except she’s never really unhappy? You get me? Like she’s annoyingly enthusiastic (in a cute way) most of the time but you can tell she wants to do thing nuns can’t do
“I just want to get it started so I can run him over” DO IT FRED ILL GIVE U $5
“I’m here on a missionary basis, I’m trying not to think uncharitable thoughts” LOL DONT WORRY TOM, SHELAGH’s GOT YOU COVERED
“I’m perfectly happy to think them for you” and she pushes her glasses up 😂 I LOVE The sas. I love her. & then Patrick is like “that’s my girl” & it’s cute af
Dr Myra you’re in pain, I see you
LMAO SHE MAD THAT SISTER FELICITY DIED LIKE SHE MADE THE CHOICE?
“I don’t believe in any of that” how do you tell a nun you don’t believe in God lol?
CHURCH LIT 💃🏼👏🏼
SHELAGH & SISTER WINIFRED TRYING TO COPY THEIR DANCE IS THE CUTEST THING 😭
All of them in the back of the truck is the second cutest thing 😭✨
I cherish the two seconds Shelagh and Trixie sat next to each other 😭 I just want them to be friends!! give me a cute scene between them pls, I won’t stop asking till I get one
yikes @ the water, STILL RELEVANT IN 2017! even in the US in flint
THE ELEPHANTS! ah love it. I want to go on an African safari 😭 guess I have to settle for the fake on in Disney’s Animal Kingdom.. it’s lit though I won’t lie
Mathias and Able 💔💔 and Patrick explaining “man to man”
“All medicine is good, usually” UGH THE THALIDOMIDE
No Dr Myra!!
It’s not liver cancer!! Ah now to wait till they realize
“There’s never no hope at all Patrick, it’s 1962” YES SHELAGH, THERE IS ALWAYS HOPE. ESPECIALLY CAUSE YOU’RE HAVING A FREAKING BABY, #LETSGETIT1962
Don’t worry Tom, leave it to the pros. Sister Julienne is gonna handle Mr Stark(e)?
SHELAGH WITH THE GOATS IM DEAD, why is she scared of goats but delivered fucking piglets in series 1? I’d be more scared of pigs?
Shelagh talking to sister MJ on the phone 😭💕 THEYRE BOTH PRECIOUS

BEATRIX FRANKLIN SLAYING IN the black two piece and clubmasters AGAIN, when will your fav ever?
HOW DO I GET TO LOOK LIKE THAT? 😭😭😍😍
How am I so attached to Trixie and Shelagh’s characters like wtf?? Everything they do and say and wear, I’m just shook all the time. It’s not normal
Like Laura Main and Helen George could literally punch me in the face and I’d thank them
Why did Barbara get so mad on the beach with Tom? I feel the stress was real but damn
lol shoutout to everyone on Tumblr for pointing out that Shelagh and Patrick were being cute in the corner watching the sunset or whatever
I loved this scene between Tom and Trixie💕
MY BBY HAS COME SO FAR, SHE’S GROWN AND SHE IS THRIVING. LIKE SHE’S ABOUT TO PERFORM A DAMN C-SECTION 😭
also she looks so beautiful, I want to look like that ah😍
Shelagh with the picture of Tim and Angela 😭💔💔
THEN SHE TOOK IS TO THE HOSPITAL UGH, so glad that is over it was too much
“I knew that yearning once, I was lucky because it left me when we adopted our daughter..” UGH CRYIN AND NOW SHE’S HAVING A BABY ANYWAY
BUT I LOVED THIS SCENE AS WELL
Shelagh is understanding & not judgmental of Dr Myra and I just love seeing her nursing & well I love everything she does but I’m so glad she had such great screen time
FRED DOING THE HAND MOTIONS FOR WHAT TOM WAS SAYING LMAO
“Medicine isn’t about doing what’s easy, it’s about doing what’s essential” yes Patrick, we have come full circle
there’s always a moment when I watch ctm and I’m like “I should’ve tried to become a nurse” then I’m like LOL NAH. The nursing program is so intense at my university I wouldn’t pass it anyway 😂
my mother’s a nurse though, I’ll leave it to her. After watching this episode it reminded her of how she always wanted to do a mission trip or like nurses without boarders and was trying to tell my dad she still wants to go 😂
too bad I’ve ruined her plans because my university’s tuition is ungodly & I didn’t get one damn scholarship
“No anesthesia” DR MYRA IS NO JOKE, kick ass woman.
Patrick, Shelagh and Sister J aka the dream team
How did they fake this? So crazy
“When people have no love to live for, it’s so very easy to fill that void with hate” 💔💔 something is in my eye again😭
“ Look where we ended up” “WE HAVEN’T ENDED UP ANYWHERE..and I’m not going to say anything else because I’m afraid I may speak sharply and no matter how high the stakes you don’t deserve that” HELL YEA SHELAGH, I’m so proud.
Sister W casually trying to not look at the handsome but sweaty Tom
Oh shit Dr Myra’s down
CORRA SHELAGH
Shelagh holding the umbrella and laying in the back with Dr Myra >>
Now Constance’s going into labor
Mr Stark I know you think you have a reason to be an asshole but wtf she’s a nun? Like you don’t even feel slightly disrespectful?
“I know what is it to have nothing but a photograph or two..” UGH THAT EPISODE WITH SISTED J’S OLD BOYFRIEND KILLED ME
I love Sister Julienne, I hope we can see hear more of her past.
Lol pbs cut that scene of Babs singing but why?
“Then we have no choice. We have to operate ourselves.” YOU CAN DO IT TRIXIE
the first time watching this my anxiety was on 1000
Phyllis tying up Trixie’s gown up like they’re suiting up for battle
I KNOW WHAT HAPPENS AND IM STILL NERVOUS
THE BABY IS STUCK LIKE I WOULDVE FREAKED TF OUT
this is also why I won’t be a nurse or doctor lol, I’m always panicking
BABS PUSH THE BABY BACK UP
AYE GRACIAS DIOS, ALL IS WELL
“Well done Trixie, I couldn’t be more proud of you” 😭💕 me either
Yea I say you earned a cigarette
Better late than never to make amends I guess, but get that clean water going asap no rocky
The Turners are back 👏🏼
THE CAKE TIN 😭😭
& Able and Mathias 😭😭
Aw Tom proposing ☺️ I don’t really feel anything for them as a couple but this was a cute moment 😭
SHELAGH AND PATRICK GIVING TIM’S LEG BRACES TO MATHIAS AH MY HEART
And they got the water 😭
I LIED BEFORE EVERYONE JUMPING UNDER THE WATER PUMP IS THE CUTEST THING😭💕👏🏼✨
“Not all gifts come tied in ribbons, or at a special time of year. Some blessings surprise us arriving unlabeled and we embrace them in a blaze of joy” DAMN IT VANNESSA IM CRYIN THANKS (also now it seems like foreshadow for baby Turner)
Roza as secretary!! My heart again
I bet Trixie took over like a badass while Dr Myra was recovering
THE GOATS HAHA
PHYLLIS TAKING ALL THOSE PHOTO’S AT THE END IS THE GREATEST PART 😭💖 IM SO HAPPY AND MY HEART GROWS LIKE THE GRINCH EVERY TIME I WATCH THIS SHOW
LOL THE NUNS GOT PHOTOBOMBED BY A CHICKEN
AND CUE REDGRAVE
“But though they’d given their labor and their love, they also took and they learned and they went home wiser, enriched in ways they could not count”
The End 😭😭💕💕😰😰
Ugh I don’t care, that special was spectacular and I loved every minute.
#call the midwife#I'm TRASH FOR THIS SHOW#lets get it 1962#am I still cryin?#yes#I'm still not over it#my commentaries™

Well, got has officially become the worst show ive ever watched..
LONG ASS RANT WITH SPOILERS AHEAD!!
Daenerys x Jon is the most forced relationship i have ever seen in a tv show (and ive seen a shit ton). The chemistry is completly off between the actors, ive never been a huge fan of Kit’s acting but seeing him with Emilia is a damn nightmare. I don’t know what happened to Emilia’s acting skills either, like I could have understood the initial reaction to see V. Die before her eyes as shock, but even then it was so wooden (and it doesnt even look like shes looking in the right direction). The boat scene is a complete disaster to me, its badly acted and written even worse. The whole thing is so damn rushed and such a mess. I cant help but cringe every damn time theyre next to each other. And the fact that Davos & Tyrion have to insist on their new “romance” : “i see you starring at her good heart “ “jon snow is in love with you” is just fucking bad writing and they know it. If their actors + writing were good enough in a scene together the viewer wouldnt need someone to point out the damn obvious, thats a cheap way to confirm the relationship and its just fucking lazy. They just put 2 hot white people standing next to each other and expect us to believe its the best romance of the century. Also theyre aunt and nephew, I dont care if people ship them, you ship what you like, but the show have been shitting all over Jaime & cersei but now wants to give us Daenerys & Jon? And I dont care if its common use for the Targaryens, incest is incest, you cant criticize it on one hand and idealise it on another.
((Btw l understand that most of Jon’s fan are calling him a traitor to the north for bending the knee, but at this point Daenerys gave him all her dragonglass + came to their rescue, losing her “child” in the process + promised to fight for him ; lending him her army + other dragons. What else should he do then? Not bend the knee? Thats not how political relationship works. That just makes sense. (Not the “my queen” cringy shit tho, no need to go to thats extend damn)))
V.’s death has close to zero impact to be honest, as someone who watched the show originally in most part for the dragons, I was surprised and disappointed by the lack of sadness his death is treated with. If they had given him a tiny bit of personnality instead of giving everything to Drogon it would have had some meaning then. Thats really not helped by Emilias acting, or the pace of the scene, or the music or the writing, he just sinks. Also his death is literally Jon’s fault, everybody was on the dragon already, but he had to be the manly hero™ and just pulled some bullshit long enough to get V killed. What a waste. And Daenerys is not even pissed at him too? Wtf.
The entire expedition was such a mess too and so unnecessary, the rythm is either too rushed or too slow (that shot of several seconds on Kit’s face after his conversation with jors is so damn long (WE GET IT HES GONNA HAVE A KID WITH DAENERYS SHUT; THE; FUCK; UP; ABOUT IT ALREADY DAMN), its litteraly a bunch of dudes admiring each other’s manly skills + the skills of the men they knew. Really no talks about Arya (Gendry + Jon + The Hound) or Sansa?! Also that damn sword doesnt belong to Jorah but to Lyanna, the one who stood for Jon when no others would, and thats it. No one brought some fucking dragonglass too for some reason. .
The Sansa + Arya dynamic is a fucking mess. Even Maisie who ive always thought to be an excellent actress is so lost in her lines. The writers make a bunch of dudes who are not supposed to get along (if we look at their backstories) just bound over some dudebros action but they cant write a goddamn relationship between sisters right? The other day i was rewatching the battle of the bastards episode and it makes me so damn glad Rickon is dead, now they cant fuck him over too.
On a side note: Cersei & Jaime’s characters have literally been murdered. Jaime has lost all type of substance. What the fuck happened to my queen Yara? Euron’s is just one more blood thirsty villain like ive seen billions of times already (at least Ramsay was interesting). Why is little finger not dead already? Like im certain that the stark sisters are playing him but still why would he still be around? Where is ghost? Tyrion has been reduced to literally nothing. Same thing for Bran, the fucks wrong with him. Rhaegal is reduced to a fuckboy and Lyanna just destroyed (what a surprise, another woman shitted on on this show). The timeline is completly fucked. I thought the 5 & 6 seasons were bad but this is worse.
Anyways; my random thoughts for the final season: Daenerys & Jon have a baby, he rides Rhaegal & she rides drogon during the war against the knight king. Cersei aint gonna give a shit so she wont take part in the fight. Many characters die at least: Tormund, Jorah, Beric, melisandre & Davos. Jaime kills cersei. Yara dies. daenerys either goes mad or dies, but some shit is gonna happen to her so Jon can sit on the iron throne, with the baby he has with daenerys as the heir & sansa becomes the lady of winterfell. Arya possibly dies, so does Bran. Theon has an heroic death (probably saving one of the stark’s lives).
#a lot of spoilers ahead youre warned#psa: i dont ship anyone on the show mostly because i dont give a fuck about it anymore theyre shitting over every single woman and im done#so no need to come argue with me about the jonerys/jonsa debate#i dont give a fuck#ri talks

what do you think abt the furuba reboot? favourite/least favourite characters and ships, other thoughts you might have? tell me everything!!!!!! :DD
okay so thoughts so far are that it’s SO GOOD!!!!!!!! i really loved and enjoyed the 01 version but ??? the remake is such a different experience??? i was talking to my friend the other day and i was telling her that even though you know what’s going to happen, it’s still such a fun and refreshing experience!! like you don’t feel like you’re watching the same thing over again and i feel like the new art style and beautifulllll soundtrack really help with that! and i also like how they’ve changed some small details and add some new parts in etc but it doesn’t ? affect things badly?? (ex like you know how sometimes when there’s an anime adapatation of a manga but there are different details and people don’t like it ?? i don’t feel like that’s the case here !)
it’s also so emotional and really powerful omg..... like i rewatched the first 10 ? 12 ? episodes a few months ago and omg....... i cried so much gfdhgsdfjhg like i cry really easily so it’s fine but omg i really ???? like there’s just so much emotion and i don’t know what it is but seeing just how tohru is so empathetic of others, that she tries to understand other people’s feelings and pain ??? that she ends up crying for them (like momiji) just has me T______T
but yeah my overall thoughts !! i really really love it so far omg it’s easily made its way up to my top fave animes LOL like the charas are just so fun and lovable, the story is really interesting to me ? like i don’t . know where it’s going gjkhf but i’m really interested to see ! and i love that even though it’s really emotional at times, there’s a lot of lightheartedness !
omg okay this is already long but i’ll try to answer your other questions and keep them as short as i can gdfjkghdf
fave charas: AHHH okay i really love yuki ))): i know people say that his true chara traits are reveal later and that he’s more of an ass or smth LOL but i love his kindness ! and how kind he is to tohru !! i also love it when he’s an ass though AHAHA like when it comes to aya and kyo LOL it’s funnie
HARU omg haru grew on me during this remake??? i love his and kyo’s relationship they’re so funnie !!! he’s also really nice like during the ep with kisa you can see just how caring he is im ))): and his sense of style . we love )): also his backstory with yuki HURT but i love how that was resolved and that it ended up this way when it could have been the complete opposite

1: Talk about the first time you watched your favorite movie. i don’t have one particular favourite movie per se. but star wars: i binge watched them at my friend’s house just before the ast jedi came out. i knew nothing about star wars and watched everything within 2/3 days. then, about a week later i watched the force awakens. and that was purely because we decided to watch the last jedi (which had just come out in cinemas) the next day. honestly, i didn’t care for star wars much skdjfhdjk but the force awakens really got me into it. and the last jedi fully sold me. then i went back and rewatched and i loooove the empire strikes back. now they’re my favourite movies. marvel: again, i hadn’t seen any marvel. but i had pretty much every friend i had yelling at me to catch up before end game came out. i loosely planned on watching them, but didn’t really get around to it until i got baked at a friends house and we had nothing to do. so we watched age of ultron and iron man and some others (i was too stoned to remember). i was sold i loved every second. and the fact that i was very high and rdj was very cute didn’t hurt. i went home the next day and watched ragnarok which happened to be probably the best movie i’d ever seen at that point. the next day, we got stoned again and watched infinity war. it was so fucked but amazing. i booked tickets for me and my dad to watch end game this saturday.
2: Talk about your first kiss. oh god. i was 15 and there was this guy who i thought was cool. he was a friend of my very gay crush at the time. me and the crush had a falling out later on. and a lot of other fucked up shit happened around that time period. i moved to his (the friend's) neighbourhood as it happened. we got talking because we had the same taste in music. and my best friend at the time put in a good word for me. i didn’t think of him as much more than a friend tbh, but my life was going to shit and i wanted to get out of the house ad have fun. so we organised to meet up at our town’s centre shopping place. i told my parents i was going with [insert random female names here] to hang out since we moved into a new place. they bought it and offered to drive me. i honestly thought we were just going to chill out and eat food. i was also nervous that this was a set up from his friend who was my crush, since the crush hated me and probably would have plotted to do something fucked. however, it turned out not to be a set up. we ended up walking around the suburb. this was much to my disapproval, because i was not very fit and had a strong dislike for exercise. he could tell i was tired and we decided to stop and sit down on this brick wall thing at the corner of a street. there was some terrible flirting on my part, and the next thing i know i was kissing this guy. i was pretty excited because every 15 year old girl wants their first kiss. and especially edgy ones who needed a distraction. i came home with no lipstick and chapped lips. lucky my parents were too busy to notice.
3: Talk about the person you've had the most intense romantic feelings for. most intense? i could list best friends, but in terms of intensity i think it would be this guy that i moved out with for the first time. i know this sounds terrible, but he was my best friend’s boyfriend at the time. i was pretty sure i was a lesbian at the time and i’m also not fucked up. so i wasn’t expecting this at all. because of the whole gay thing, and me being a flirty shit with anyone, i ended up very shamelessly flirting with him. he was sooo pretty, and im not just saying this. objectively, he is still probably one of the best looking people i’ve ever seen. and i own mirrors. anywayyyy, i took my sister to this lana del rey concert one day. not a lana fan personally, but borns was opening and i like him. turns out i like borns a lot. a hell of a lot. next day, i found myself talking to my best friend and her boyfriend and being like “hey i think i might be bi”. their reaction can be quoted as “oh cool okay.” the night after the concert, we got drunk. not a great idea, because i love to flirt when sober. so when i’m drunk and have literally 0 shame it’s a lot of fun but also an entire disaster. my friend bought her friend over and they were talking, which left me and the bf. the boys started teaching me self defence and were doing the whole smooth thing where they stand pressed up behind you and move your arms for you. they put me into headlocks and taught me how to get out and stuff. i was so drunk the ground kept spinning. a lot of terrible outrageous flirting ensued, like choking, touching adams apples, arm tickles, hugs that lasted 10 minutes while he had a knife in his pocket for whatever reason? more hugs like that but now featuring grinding. we slept in the same bed (just slept. nothing else. don’t get too excited). cuddling while in the same bed. laying on his chest and falling asleep. him playing with my hair. one time he played with my tiddies. this was over the course of like 9 months. whenever we werent 2 seconds away from like ..... jumping each other, we were just flirting in the most unsubtle way. obviously nothing happened, because he had a gf and everything. and as much as i didnt want to, i started to get some reeeeeal feelings. turns out the guy was a dick who only flirted with me whenever his gf wasnt paying attention to me. i later cut the whole thing off, and he started to act like a real dick to me. but yeaaahh. that was some intense shit.
4: Talk about the thing you regret most so far. probably not getting a license for any vehicle. that’s held me back so much the last 5 years. i wouldn’t have had to go through half the shit i did, if i could just drive
5: Talk about the best birthday you've had. my 15th birthday! i had raspberry chocolate bullets, watched movies in class because it was end of term, my friends bought me presents to school. the guy i had a crush on came to where i was sitting and sung a song to me in front of everyone. i think my friend bought me a club penguin membership? i ate pide and played league with crush and crush’s crush.
6: Talk about the worst birthday you've had. my 18th. i don’t want to talk too much about it because im very drunk atm but basically, i was suuuper depressed already that year. my mum was doing cocaine every spare second she could, and screwing men for it so she could get it for free (of course, none of us knew this at the time). whenever she wasn’t doing coke she was screaming at everyone for like, not taking pictures of her enough, or for eating dinner without asking her, etc. she and my dad were constantly either yelling at each other, or were 2 seconds away from yelling at each other. we went to a clothes shopping outlet. which i very outwardly expressed my hatred for, btw. my mum got mad because my dad told her not to look at clothes, because it was my 18th. my mum didn’t talk for the rest of the time we were in the shopping centre. i could feel the tension rising because they were in the 2 seconds away from having a fight period. i came home and watched sailor moon in my room alone. later my parents brought a cake and lit the candles. dad said to me “my god i am so sorry. this has been the most amazing birthday, hasnt it? you should thank your mother. she’s just the best. i’m so sorry! i never wanted this for you”. and, you know, my coke fuelled mother just screamed her lungs off and gave it right back to him. and my aries dad just yelled right back. and the candles were lit in the dark room and wax was dripping onto my chocolate birthday cake. and i hated chocolate flavoured cake. and i just wanted to run away all day because i knew this was going to happen. and they couldn’t even hold it together for me? or for my 18th? so i just sat there and cried as they screamed at eachother. i blew out the candles and ran into my bedroom and watched vines in my room. the end! :D
7: Talk about your biggest insecurity. honestly, i don’t have a lot of insecurities. i have a lot of fears, but not insecurities. i guess i’m insecure about my body in certain places. i have a scar from an operation i had when i was 9 and it makes my stomach look chubby, but only on one side? it’s out of proportion and weird. and i have violin hips.
8: Talk about the thing you are most proud of. honestly, it’s so simple, but i’m really proud of still being alive. i thought for sure i’d be dead by now
9: Talk about little things on your body that you like the most. i love my back! it sounds weird, but i have a rly nice waist and my back is sooo soft and smooth and it goes in at the waist and its so nice to touch and look at. and i have really nice and toned legs. and my arms are getting toned now too because my work makes me carry a lot of heavy stuff. and my baby sister is getting bigger and i’m usually the one to hold her. and i have nice hands too. but my favourite thing is my face and hair.
10: Talk about the biggest fight you've ever had. oh god. not going into much detail about this at all because i spend like 3 or 4 years crying about this. it featured: 2 best friends of mine who i had been friends with for 10 years; my crush at the time; random people off the internet i’d never met before. like i said before, i was a 15 year old with a lot going on. maybe that didn’t make it okay for me to be as annoying as i was, but it’s done now. they all got into a skype group chat together without me. and call it paranoia, but i call it intuition. i knew they were all shit talking me. i could tell there was something up for a while now. they all started changing their online profiles to something that very clearly mocked me, they started making posts about me, and posts that were clearly parodies of my posts. and i sort of went along with it because i dont like to stir up much trouble. but the posts just got worse and worse to where it was like ‘you were so weird and creepy’ and calling me names and stuff. honestly, i can’t even remember anymore because i spend a while blocking it out. but it was pretty mean. but it hurt more because there were all the people i was closest to, all saying fucked up shit about me. and then random people who lived in my city who i didnt know. after the fight ended, we never spoke again. but i spend the next 2 years afraid that i would bump into somebody from online in person and they would recognise me, and the whole thing would happen again
11: Talk about the best dream you've ever had. tbh i dont remember a lot of my dreams. i usually have nightmares anyway? i think i had a dream i could fly and had like magic powers and stuff. i was 8 or something and it was fun.
12: Talk about the worst dream you've ever had. after i moved out of my parents house, i had a lot of nightmares about my mum. again, i don’t remember specifics because i tried to block out the memory, but i remember feeling terrified, and then waking up relieved to remember i was out of there. after that, i started smoking weed which meant no dreaming which was good
13: Talk about the first time you had sex/how you imagine your first time. i haven’t had like..... sex sex yet. i’ve been almost raped a few times? skfsdkjfl that sounds so cringey. but yeah! i dont know though, i imagine i’ll probably be super drunk for my first time. or maybe high. they make me more confident than usual. and for some reason i dont really like the idea of sex when im sober. i don’t think i’d be willing to be vulnerable with someone unless it was in a circumstance like that, maybe. and i’d be sure i wouldn’t have to see them again later on unless i wanted to. that way if i embarrassed myself, it wouldn’t matter. it would just be a terrible memory no one else would ever have to know about.
14: Talk about a vacation. i want one of these answers to not be about a fucked up memory of mine but i ...... truly can’t recall something? i guess there was a christmas i had when i was a kid (maybe around 8 or 10) and i’ll leave out the fucked up bits. but i stayed with my mother’s family and my grandmother owned a holiday apartment thing which had a pool and my uncles had horses and i got to see everyone and my uncles were super funny and let me play video games with them.
15: Talk about the time you were most content in life. there was this period for about ..... 3 months in my last year of high school just before i graduated. all my assignments were over, and my major works were all finished. i was just putting the finishing touches on them. and all i had to do was study for exams. i got into the swing of school. and my friend got her license so she used to drive us places after school and we would hang out and do dumb shit together. i didn’t care what anyone thought of me because i knew i wouldn’t have to see them again in 6 months unless i wanted to. the next time was this few months after i’d just moved out of my parent’s house. probably 4 or 5 months. i had been dreaming of having my own place for like, my entire childhood. and i finally did! and it was with my best friend and this guy i really liked. and all i did was go to uni for a few hours a day. and then that was it! my time was all my own to do whatever i wanted with. i didn’t have a lot of money but i was so so so happy. i used to take myself to the movies. i was in walking distance of a train station and uni. so i could go wherever i wanted, whenever i wanted. i just felt so free
16: Talk about the best party you've ever been to. the first part of my house-warming party was probably the best. i got really drunk, and someone’s mum brought weed so i was reeeeeally drunk and then reeeeeally high. i was dressed in the cutest outfit and a few people were flirting with me. actually, i think i made out with like 3 different people that night. and my friend bought me flowers! which i loved because no one had ever bought me flowers before. and we went to the park and i was so high and drunk and the little swing ride i was on felt like a rollercoaster.
17: Talk about someone you want to be friends with. hmmmmm to be honest, i’m trying not to make friends at the moment. i have a lot of other stuff i need to focus on. and having friends only leads to disappointment and heartbreak. i have a few friends i’ve accidentally made, but i’m trying to keep my distance from them so that we’re just ‘friends’ and not ‘good friends’ or anything like that. but secretly, i do love them a lot.
18: Talk about something that happened in elementary school. me and my best friend at the time were doing a school play about mary the saint (i went to catholic school). there were 3 of us: me, my best friend, and some guy who didnt have friends so we let him in our group. anyway, i wanted to play mary, but for whatever reason, this dude reeeeeeally fucking wanted to be mary. he started like yelling and stomping and being like “NO! i want to be mary!” and then just as he stomped his foot, a branch from a tree fell right on his head. and, without missing a beat, my friend goes “well, that branch hit you on the head so now you can’t be mary” and i laughed my ass off and he cried 19: Talk about something that happened in middle school. omg these are all going to be funny stories because why not. so this one time in like 6th grade, we had to use calculators to do some complex maths work. and there was this one calculator that kept fucking up and giving the wrong answers. i knew enough basic maths at that point to know that the calculator was faulty. anyway so me and my friends gave it to this other kid just to punk him a little right. turns out he didn’t realise it was a broken calculator and he finished his work and handed it in to the teacher, and proceeded to get in trouble sjlfsorerjlksjr
20: Talk about something that happened in high school. omg so in high school i did this multimedia class. so we would film events like chapels (i went to a christian high school) and assembly, etc. and what we filmed would go on the big screens for everyone to see. kinda like a concert. and anyway, one time this kid got in trouble in front of everyone, and my classmate did this dramatic zoom on our multimedia teacher as he stormed out of the auditorium, dramatically walking out to get the kid in trouble
21: Talk about a time you had to turn someone down. oh so this one time after i finished school i started going through rough patch #2 and i just needed a friend to talk to. and this guy from school was sort of the only friend who kept checking up on me and inviting me out places. and i liked that. i didn’t always have enough energy to do stuff or talk, because, depression. but i appreciated the fact that he cared. never thought much about it. until one day, we hadn’t spoken for like a month and he tells me suddenly that he has feelings for me. and of course, that’s so sweet and i did love the guy. but i wasn’t in the headspace for a relationship at all. i really just needed a friend. and i felt so terrible
22: Talk about your worst fear. my worst fear ever? it used to be dying. but i think now it’s just having to go through what i went through again. my worst fear would be being a child again and being at the mercy of others and having to rely on them. my worst fear is trusting people and having them completely fuck you up. again and again. and not being able to do anything about it because you need them.
23: Talk about a time someone turned you down. hoo boy. i was 15 and made friends with someone on the internet who turned out to go to my school. developed a crush on him, but he was very gay. i ended up telling him for whatever reason. and that went just about the way you’d think
24: Talk about something someone told you that meant a lot.
i don’t know. most people don’t know what they’re talking about when they give me advice. and i’m not saying that to be arrogant, but just most people haven’t been through much and not to sound self-pitying but i’ve been through a lot in a short amount of time. these are just facts here. so i don’t really believe what people say. i used to have this friend who was and will probably always be the only person who could ever make me laugh. genuinely. it felt like soulmates, but i was like a kid. but we had exactly the same sense of humour, and she was so witty and quick and would always have the best comedic timing. i really admired her and still do. anyway, one time she called me effortlessly funny. and that meant a lot then and still does now.
25: Talk about an ex-best friend. i just did, but sure. i’ll keep talking about her because i’m already thinkig of her. i’m pretty sure she was a capricorn rising. she had this really deadpan humour and it was always hilarious. we were friends since we were 4 years old. and i dont think i appreciated it as much as i should have at the time, but we really did grow up together and in each others arms. she was very cool and closed off and serious. and i got to see her funny and silly side. but what was even cooler than that was that i got to know her emotionally. she had a twin, and looking back, i don’t think her twin even saw as much of that as i got to. we used to have talks about anything and everything. you know those people who you can stay up all night laughing with and talking to and it doesn’t even feel like it’s been 10 minutes and all of a sudden the sun is coming up? but it was so effortless and fun and. yeah. it was like that. i still haven’t met anyone like that since. we later had a falling out and i met her again after like a year but we both had our walls up and that’s sort of when i realised how much we really trusted each other. you don’t know what you’ve got till it’s gone kinda thing.
26: Talk about things you do when you're sick. complain. bitch. complain some more. i usually buy nasal spray because having a blocked nose is SO ANNOYING. and otherwise, i don’t mind being sick too much. like obviously it’s not ideal but you do what you can. if i’m truly annoyed with being sick, i just sleep so i don’t have to be awake to deal with it
27: Talk about your favorite part of someone else's body. i love girls tummys and waists
28: Talk about your fetishes. idk i like some light bondage, light choking, a biiiiit very much maybe potentially kinda into rapeplay, and spanking is fun
29: Talk about what turns you on. most of what turns me on is like dom/sub power dynamics. im into scanarios that have a looooot of sexual build up and tension. it’s pretty much foreplay for me personally. especially if it’s like flirty banter or implications, and dirty talk can be fun if done right.
30: Talk about what turns you off. absolutely not into anal at all. complete turn off. not at all into the thing where people get off on girls acting like kids, or people who think fucking someone who is asleep is hot. idk i like most normal shit tbh. anything else is probably weird for a reason
31: Talk about what you think death is like. i think it’s probably the most painful experience you’ll ever have physically. and then everything goes black and that’s it
32: Talk about a place you remember from your childhood. i remember my childhood house’s backyard. it was massive and had like a step in the middle where the grass changed levels. there was a swingset with a slide. and for the majority of my childhood my parents were doing renovations, so there were lots of holes in the backyard that we used to dodge. we used to catch lizards and i used to collect bird feathers. and at the very back, right in front of the back fence, my parents planted little trees and chillis
33: Talk about what you do when you are sad. i immediately find the fastest way to be alone. i immediately listen to music. i drink or smoke or get high on something. or i try to make myself laugh if i’m at work and can’t do either of those things. if i can’t make myself laugh, i try to talk to a customer and pretend to be happy hoping that whatever they have to say will distract me from whatever i’m sad about.
34: Talk about the worst physical pain you've endured. eugh. every year i somehow get sent to the hospital because i can’t stop vomiting. i dont know how because its always for different reasons. but i always end up puking an excessive amount on an annual basis. the worst pain is when you can’t stop vomiting, so your stomach just cramps and cramps and cramps and you vomit but nothing happens and it just cramps again. it’s literally worse than period cramps. and mine are so bad.
35: Talk about things you wish you could stop doing. having anxiety. i overthink a lot which doesnt help either. the thing is that i studied psychology, and i still don’t know how to stop myself from being so anxious. like i know how much it affects my work and stuff but i just can’t stop feeling like i’m about to die at any given second.
36: Talk about your guilty pleasures. drinking, drugs, smoking, im not even guilty about those. idk. to quote niall hora- i mean pink, i’m not guilty about any of my pleasures
37: Talk about someone you thought you were in love with. an old best friend. different to aforementioned best friend. we were friends for 6 years. not as close as the other one, but close as i’ve been to someone since. we were both depressed and going through stuff and both flirted with each other just for shits and gigs. idk. i think we really only bonded because we were both depressed and suicidal and having someone else around who is going through the same stuff makes everything so much more bearable. once i stopped being depressed i stopped being as close and as in love. but at the time, it was really nice and beautiful, we truly could talk about anything together. i could have opened with “i love being dominated in bed” instead of “hello” and she would have just rolled with it. we used to dream about the future together and hold hands and hug. idk. we used to just hang out together and there was never any pressure to do anything or be anyone. it was just us being our dorky selves.
38: Talk about songs that remind you of certain people. goodbye stranger by supertramp reminds me of above mentioned friend, two of us by the beatles reminds me of first mentioned best friend, and i love her by the beatles reminds me of this friend group i had for 10 years. princess by shortstack reminds me of this friend i had for a few years who i almost had a thing with because i knew she liked me but neither of us ever said anything.
39: Talk about things you wish you'd known earlier. i wish i’d have known that it’s not a good or admirable trait to be so open with people so quickly. you shouldn’t immediately show people that you trust them or like them, and you definitely shouldn’t get so excited about things for them. it makes you look naive and they will definitely just use you. i wish i’d known to get my license earlier i wish i’d have known what weed was like earlier. it really would have helped me out a lot.
40: Talk about the end of something in your life. the end of high school was really hard. i know a lot of people hated high school. and i did. but once i got to my final 2 years, i had this confidence that comes with being older in school and it was really nice. i love the routine we had and the forced structure school made you have in your life. i enjoyed mucking around with teachers and that feeling of starting assignments before they’re due. being at school was nice because i mostly kept to myself and was generally well-liked. so i had this big support system that got me through a lot. and school ending meant that the support i had also ended. and then i had nothing and nobody and went through so much and had to be alone for it all. the end of school coincided with the worst period of my life #2, probably because i was at home to experience a lot more.

Arrow Rewatch S2E18
Slade you can be so caring, why you gotta hurt this girl further.
Haha Felicity like statisticly telling Thea cant be as bad as me telling Barry.
Also Felicity shade over Olivers suit.
Oliver struggling with Moira.
I love Moira throwing shade at QCHo.
Aww Oliver that's harsh.
No Blood you truly are at fault ya slimy bastard.
No you really dont Laurel.
Poor Oliver and Moira and Roy.
Oliver struggling with his sister gone. 😭
QCHo you swarmy bitch. Thea wont be thanking you.
Felicity like ill do whatever it takes to make sure Thea comes home to you Oliver, she's family regardless of us. Also damn girl you scouring photos like a boss.
Sara being a badass creating a way to hurt Slade because truly Thea is everyones little sister.
Oliver like Roy you gonna kill for me tonight.
Haha Anatoly you are amazing and yes Sara can be scary.
Back off Slade.
Haha Sara like dad Oliver and the arrow are worlds apart.
Ugh with the damn foreshadowing of Sara's death.
Back off of Quentin!
Oliver and Slades convo is love. From me.
Man just realized the police station got a damn fine upgrade, when did this happen? Was this in season 6?
Leave Thea alone Slade, you are tearing Oliver apart.
Sure not one to hold a grudge, never you Slade. Ugh why must i love hate you so.
Arrow team working like a well oiled machine.
Poor Roy he tried so hard.
How does this not work against Slade again? Sure he lets her go but he still kidnapped her.
Leave her alone this poor girl has been through enough.
Roy calm your tits.
Felicity defending always. Poor felicity having to be reminded of Sara/Oliver, though i also dont think she thought Roys comment was appropriate because it insinuates Sara cant think for herself and because shes an assassin who will kick Roys ass.
Oliver cant watch his mother in pain. It hurts so. Shes reminded of losing a child and cant relive it. I get it now she gives herself to slade not only to protect oliver and thea but to save herself that pain again.
Moments that im sure oliver remembers more vividly now that he has william.
Back off Sara Slade.
Everyone trying to reason with Roy though Sara arms up. Also im calling it this is the moment dig remembers most when naming Baby Sara.
Poor Diggle. And the rest of the arrow team.
Damn you QCHo you need to get run over.
Yea you better back off QCHo, youre not as strong as you will be so he could kill you easily.
Ya nasty girl, sleeping with Oliver knowing you had an affair with his father then trying to put that shit on Oliver.
Sara is right but so is Oliver. Its a trap butnits worth the risk when its family.
Felicity giving Oliver the go ahead as a true partner. Always backing his play even ifnits jot the most well thought out or best. This is why she forgave him easily in S3 and why shell forgive him in S7.
I cant see this Slade scene without think of Manus blopper.
Why you need this army Slade? Oh i see, a distraction for this prison transfer breakout.
Queen family reunion. 😭
Poor Oliver thinking Slade told Thea the truth and her and Moira hating him. Then realizing how much he hurt her by keeping her parentage from her.
Poor Thea, also thats the same car Roy drives in S3 sendoff. How did i not notice it beforehand?! Again though how did he afford it?
Damn you captain, leave Quentin alone.
Blood youve been played so shut up.
Damnit Slade stop right there. I wish Shado would come back now and tell you how wrong you are.
Oliver they are your team.
Stop beating yourself up Oliver. Felicity and Dig have your back.
Slade don't mess with Laurel either. And now shes in on the secret. Laurel dont act like you didnt suspect.

THE GREAT ND REWATCH OF 2021 / SEPTEMBER 10, 2019 // the seancé
watched this while drinking and working my second job after my full time job (hence the drinking) when my supe called to tell me i didnt do enough work for them and could i start doing more because being tired after working an 8 hour day was just. unacceptable. (while i'm drinking during this ENTIRE call) anyway 🍸 i use nance/nancy interchangeably like luce/lucy
-"denial: smalltown USA's favorite pastime" 👌🏻👀
-the begrudging kiss + george w the coffee = lmfaooooooo awkss nance
-wonder who this FBI agent friend of owen's is since they never get to meet 😕
-"we just opened!" / "work ethic" how nancy views the claw/work is manifested in her constant lateness and skipping out. like she says "i never thought i'd be wearing this" its clear she has some of that upper middle class/white suburban bias against restaurant working that only becomes okay in the pretext of saving up for college. this is made ironic by ryan who jokes in s2 about having no money and working at a coffee shop, sharing nancy's opinion. also ironic is how a group of her coworkers "not my friends" at this same place she puts little appreciation into turn out to be her biggest support group
-carson & family dinners: seeing john sanders' texts w nancy and trying to keep up with what shes doing / makes you wonder how ryan would approach as a dad. judging by s2 he's less subtle than carson but possibly more effective for it (i have so many nancy&ryanthoughts but i'll wait till the reveal ep)
-steaks lmaooooooo what a white suburban dad thing to say
-"we are on the same side" / "why does it feel like we're on different teams" : laura/ace and nancy/nick mirrors (almost like some kinda men vs women showdown but these women do NOT trust these men...)
-why is the precinct "the least haunted building in horseshoe bay"? does lucy not haunt the police bc she knew karen was trying to get revenge/"justice" for her? or bc she doesnt want to haunt karen at all? and what of other ghosts? a police station seems like prime ghost material for officers of unsolved cases. is it chief mcginnis with his link to the supernatural keeping everything under control? if so, what happens when he leaves and tamura shows up? (based on the dress ep i cant remember if hes woke to the supernatural or not)
-"you would need an object lucy touched the night she died" nancy like -->😌it me
-okay. anybody who hugged lucy would HAVE to know she was pregnant?? like wtf
-LAURAAAA lmfaoooo
-UNPOPULAR OPINION: laura/nick - hatefuck - hes strong enough to top her with words AND hands - bringing out something tougher created by prison (like it rough/lose control) nick is presented to be so kind and almost always on top of his emotions but laura is def a canvas that can take a few hits. i can definitely see her being attracted to how much he doesnt really like her and wants to stop her from always getting her way. her pretentious ass motormouth is practically begging you to grab her by the arms and shake her to shut her up (and she would be begging you to shut her up too)(ik s2 nick/race talks/his mom ep would never ever do this to anyone but its a choice "what if" to me)
-this casting for teen candace to adult is on point
-so two days after lucy's death they pay him 50 grand from a shell company? he says it's for services rendered but then for what services? does everett know or suspect that the drews took lucys baby and pay them for taking care of an impertinence, including lucy, not really caring what really happened to her as long as shes no longer a threat to him? honestly could see a cover up. nance only does the reveal in her balmain tazer glory and we dont really get an honest reaction out of him iirc (the new actor they switched to shows wayyyyy less emotion than s1 guy) and he could easily fake surprise. obvs celia doesnt know bc s2 but whos surprised at that. i wonder what tipped her off that nancy could be ryans baby and prompted her to test. hmm. and payroll vs shell account. why would it have been paid differently. sus. 🤔🤔
-the irony of nancy picking at nick's story at the inn for karens deal + nancy straight up ignoring nicks proof w this transfer... like ep 1 "i'll tell you about my past if you tell me about yours" except...no, actually. "i'm just trying to solve this / it feels more like you're trying to solve me" its so true. and nancy really badgered nick into telling about his conviction but it was kinda payback for showing up at the claw and making her admit their "relationship" -like when george says "you need to be just as relentless", it was equal but nasty. like. nick never asked george for details about ryan that way. he even admits he doesnt wanna push her to ace after learning what not to do with nancy.
-this seance has nick so irritated w nancy lmfaooooo
-"half sister" so josh and patrices' last name is dodd- his grandpa must be a dodd also for the name of the shop. wonder why lucy's last name is sable, and where her dad is, and where josh's dad is as well- there's no mention of dads or stepdads anywhere for these two
-mcginnis knows theyre innocent / "work together" he knows they arent really suspects but he just wants to fuck with nancy. could be playful or just nancy's naivete. maybe he actually kinda missed her fucking around in his work and is trying to make up for the lost time when she withdrew from mysteries d/t her depression after kate
-nancy + knowing everybody else's secrets - nick's conviction, bess's family, george's affair, ace's deal w mcginnis and confronts them all in turn like nick and the secret phone, george from the meeting in the woods, bess from the passport/ring and acs's phone calls (they all somehow end up knowing all each other's secrets after a bit anyway)
-fuckin love Ted 😌🙏🏻💙
-when lucy grabs nancys hand i was just like "MOM!"
-if nancy had asked lucy if carson did it, she would have been spared the trial 👀🙃
-"even if you did, nothing was gonna stop you" true truuuuueeeee like. nick needs to be needed. nancy doesnt need him starting in episode 1. nick thinks that sex = relationship but nancy never saw it that way until she realized thats what nick wanted her to admit. "i wanna be with you / im trying" she is literally forcing herself to try and date him normally when thats honestly never what she wanted. and its nicks own fault here bc she never even wanted to be "official" but he forced that out of her too in front of coworkers no less. he set himself up to be disappointed
and lastly
-so carson stole the evidence, but what did he do with it? burn it like the dress?
