🥵 Help.

A look such as this from Mister Colin Bridgerton would surely make even the most perennial of wallflowers swoon, would it not? Bridgerton Season 3 Promo (2024)

I can't get it out of my head that these scenes are somehow connected

I’m bored and thought of another scenario to put in tension and angst for obey me characters to go through. I like this one by the way.

_______________________________

Sorcerers’ society find out the causes of earthquakes happening faster than usual was MC due to their magic potential (MC being the cause of all the natural ‘phenomenon’ in S2) and now want to investigate MC and call them in.

Drama has already started baby.

Solomon who’s against this but goes with MC to make sure they’re ok because it’s not a good idea to ignore a seemingly threat invitation I mean.

It’s explained the Ring of light was used to console MC’s magic and everything is fine now but they’re doubting it and want to investigate the Ring of light for themselves, if it’s actually successfuly tamed their magic or just a temporary device to tone it down- simply meaning if MC’s overflow of magic would still be leaking and not fully restrained.

[Also add overprotective Solomon drama who’s against this because that’s hot and more dramatic]

It’s found out the ring of light isn’t powerful enough to completely prevent MC’s magic from overflowing and now…

The sorcerers’ society have deemed MC a threat. A large threat to the human world.

Who would be better off dead. No. SHOULD be dead.

「If only the story actually did have good drama like this~

So S3 of OFMD isn't happening- and you're feeling like shit. Let's talk about it.

This fandom is still an amazing space full of creatives who made this community what it is. Many of us feel hopeless now, especially for those of us who have been in fandom before because we all know what this means. This means the start of saying goodbye for some of us.

Some will move on, starting now. The most fun I've had in fandoms were during hiatus'. For good reason. There feels like there's a goal. There's something to work for. Now-it looks like we don't have that anymore. The wind has been taken out of our metaphorical sails.

But that's not really how fandom works. The show is over, sure, but our love for this thing isn't done. Our affection for the tropes and stories and characters we've found here aren't suddenly gone.

I still read fic for fandoms that 'should be dead'. I still find comfort in podfics for fic created about shows I now hate.

It's not over, because you're still here.

This feels easier to say as I personally wasn't in this fandom the main pairing. For those fans, I hope the current ending for Stede and Ed brings you some comfort. They are in a perfect place for you to pick up their story.

Not a writer or author or 'creative'?

Doesn't matter. Take a second, right now even. What happens next? Do you follow history? Do they escape? What about the crew? What about the Republic, what about all the other pirates? What happens next?

I'm an Izzy fan, and guess what? The fucker died, and we're still here! I have a solid 20 stories in my bookmarks that are still updating. I'm still writing Izzy fic, and many more are still stuck with the OFMD brain rot.

So, take a moment to mourn. You absolutely should! Because this is bullshit. By any metric, this show should have gotten another season. It made back its money, trends constantly, and sold a shit ton of merch. It was popular enough for a S3. Even if it ended up being 3 episodes long. I've gone on record as not loving a lot of S2, but y'all deserved an ending that wasn't so rushed. Modern-day television is a new hellscape that most shows aren't surviving unless they appeal to the broadest audiences.

It's all bullshit, so let's let ourselves feel like shit for a minute. Just to get it all out and process it.

If you want to rant, I'm here! Send me an anonymous message about what's got you feeling what you're feeling right now. Because me? I'm-

[currently plotting a S3 ish thing where the show follows history/and or a time travel story where S2 Izzy mentally goes back into his S1 body and changes the future. So. I'm. Coping.]

Maybe it’s a quirky choice for fave show moment but it’s really the catalyst to my fave season 2 show moment so I figured I had to shout this particular interaction. The pause before he asks her how she’s been? Everything.

He wanted to talk to her more ABOUT HER. Pen deflects back to him immediately and yeah Colin doesn’t delve further at this point to turn the convo around (and then he can’t because well, Eloise happens) but then every interaction forward in the season we get to see Colin listening to Pen more. Actively asking about her thoughts and opinions not just as an afterthought. All leading up to my true fave season 2 moment when they’re in the hallway and he asks Pen if something troubles her. Pen again deflects but we can see Colin doesn’t buy it. He just won’t pry further yet.

Is that…is that growth?! From our guy?! Our guy who interrupted Pen to be charming at the end of season 1 before asking her to continue? Sure seems like it. The value of the friendship is growing.

Is he no longer oblivious about some things? Hell no. Our guy has many more steps to get where he’s going. But he’s not as unobservant as we give him crap for and he’s paying attention to Pen in more genuine ways. And I love it.

My brain is too mushy right now to write a proper meta but. Do you guys also see the significance of Johanna’s characterization in that clip we got. It’s beyond just ‘oh, funny, she’s being chaotic now!’ (Even though it is). This is the confirmation of five years worth of theories that this is Johanna’s default behavior, this is her modus operandi. It’s the confirmation that she’d been dialing herself down since becoming a mother because she thought that that’s what she had to be for Hilda, and that after TMK that inner conflict of hers got resolved. It’s confirmation (pretty much, though this whole post works on ‘pretty much’ basis) that she used to be just like her daughter and do the most insane things imaginable. That she probably had a childhood that looked just like Hilda’s, adventure wise.

Idk man, I just love it when spending years peeling back the layers of this show’s writing actually leads to right conclusions

when jane's powers return in season four (and because they were regained by her confronting and accepting her past, rather than being retraumatised with it!) they're stronger than they ever were. when she starts getting a handle back on them, she very quickly comes to realise not only have they affected her, but her mother, too. one of the biggest losses that came about with her losing them was the fact that she could no longer visit terry in the void; while there was no real communication there, it did allow jane to sit with her, and gain a little more connection than she could in the real world. when she first visits the void after their return, it takes her three hours to find terry, something that is both unexpected and incredibly worrying. but when she does, it's something of a miracle. jane's increased strength and control over the void actually wakes terry up from her catatonic state, but only in the void. there's no way to help her mother physically, but she does do so (unbeknownst to her) mentally. terry is reborn in jane's newfound control over the vale of shadows; she becomes the woman she once was, and while her body remains frozen in a "good dream", her mind connected to jane's own allows her some freedom. jane is able to speak to her mother in the void, is able to be held by her, and while it's still unfair and jane cannot stay in there forever, it's something. this only lasts for about eight months, as each visit slowly begins deteriorating terry's physical and mental state, and jane's health begins declining after spending hours upon hours in the void each and every day.

when jane finds out these visits are actually killing her mother on the outside, she deems to stop, but terry expresses the importance of them being able to speak, that she'd prefer to die on the outside, if it meant she could have just a few months with her daughter like this. terry and jane's connection was always so strong, which ultimately led to terry "waking up" in the void, but even jane's newfound strength cannot save her from the harsh realities. each visit nearing the end of those eight months, terry fades more and more, becomes weaker in the void, and her real body eventually gives up. jane's in the void when her mother eventually passes on, and physically feels their connection weaken, like some part of her suddenly becomes lost in the shadows, a part she'll never find again. jane falls into a depressive state for weeks after her mother's death, given she's technically lost her a second time, but soon comes to realise she was lucky to have even shared those eight months together. it was better than nothing at all. there is a proper burial and funeral, (and when jane dies, she's buried next to her mother) which allows jane some sense of closure. she never fully recovers from losing terry, nor from the fact that she never had a proper relationship with her, but she does eventually find some peace with it all.

Max, to David: Thanks, Dad

Everyone:

Max: …why is everyone staring at me?

Nikki: You just called David ‘Dad’. You said ‘thanks, Dad.’

Max: What? No I didn’t. I said ‘thanks, man.’

David: Do you see me as a father figure, Max?

Max: No! If anything, I see you as a bother figure, ’cause you’re always bothering me.

Gwen: Hey, show your father some respect!
