#song of the tides

[fictonrantsworld]

Bro my queen helaena has no respect for viserys legit look at these cut scenes from bts of hotd ep 8 of viserys coming in to the dining room...😭

My girl has no respect for her neglectful father like..🤣😂😅 she immediately sat after one sec.

Say whatever about aegon and helaenas relationship but, girl fr prioritized examining and toying with aegons insect gift that he got for her, than her dying father, like girlie...

Bro even aegon stood for a while like...

Aegons look of anger at his father, when he said he loves them all, and helaenas look at viseryss face like...oh yeah...I'm supposed to feel bad for your lost eye but when aemond looses an eye it's nothing huh.

See someone's got to tell the tale, whether or not it turns out well

Maybe it will turn out this time

[ Please let me in. My brain cannot decide whether to yell, knock, or awkwardly stand like a creep until you telephatically feel my presence because we are totally that connected, right? Well, no, possibly, so I'm crouching by your door like an abandoned puppy. please save me ]

Hit send, his head hitting his blacked out screen as he continued to crouch as he had reported.

Mumbo could've just knocked, yes, much like how a very normal person would. Unfortunately, he is not as normal as he believes to be! He was just visiting like a good friend and apparently that's a nervewracking situation! Very nerve-killing.

He blames it on the fact that Scar had been his only other close friend. Though considering the current standing of his and Grian's relationship, he should've been equally as comfortable to visit the same way he had been constantly barging into Scar's.

[ Mumbo heard a slight laugh coming from inside, followed by the sounds of something falling, before the door opened. ]

[ There, Grian stood, with a random t-shirt on, his hair tied up in sections, already wearing gloves]

"hi! Come inside! Its- it's a bit of a mess, I'll warn. Watch out for Pearl, I'm not sure where she went…" [he stepped out of the way, welcoming the other inside. Like he'd said , the living room was a mess, a tablet open on the floor with a wikiHow article on how to bleach hair, and a hair bleach bottle on the floor already opened]

"so! How are you? How was the trip outside town?"

"Let the tides carry you back to me." has always been among one of my favourite lines in Telomeres, and so, having listened to it again recently, a little idea popped into my head. Let me explain:

While ocean tides/currents is a very common metaphor, there's an underlying meaning to it. The ocean is a beautiful, but somewhat cruel place: tides can leave you stranded on a sandbank, or sweap you away before you even know it.

To put it in short, no object or creature that goes into the ocean comes out the same. For the tides to carry something back to you, something you've lost, it will be and always will be changed: eroded.

The cliffside will fall, the cave will crumble, etc etc.

With this in mind, we're yet again greeted with another example of Vessel asking for something he can't truly have. The person he wants will not be the same as they were before; they "collapse" into him, breaking apart, but still, to him, it's "the start of something."

His memory is warped, they are warped, and it'll stay that way.

However, what I would like to add is that, in DYWTYLM, it's theorised that instead of Vessel speaking to a second person, he's instead talking to himself.

Of course, this makes the song itself much more emotional (to me). Finding love for yourself is one of the hardest things you can do, but it has to be done to find love in others.

With that idea (stay with me here), the lyrics "Do you roll with the waves? Or do you duck into deep blue safety?" match up (generally) with Telomeres, which is mostly interpretated as being towards someone else.

So, what if some lines in Telemores are directed to himself as well?

Keep in mind, the tides don't just erode and carry objects (sediment), they also reflect. The Atlantic is one big mirror, and Vessel is staring into it's "deep blue safety" wondering what, or, rather, who, he was before he was Vessel.

Overall, the album name, "This Place Will Become Your Tomb", either being directed at Vessel or Vessel to Sleep (and being a Halo quote lmao), is more metaphorical than literal.

Who he was before Vessel sits in that coffin, not his physical body.

Overworked Elzar and annoying Avar who won’t ever let him fill his paper are my favorite for real

Omg idk if you talk Spanish or if it’s just XXC, but with that little and wonderful doodle you gave me the amazing headcanon of XXC being bilingual and just randomly speaking Spanish out of nowhere and nobody understanding him

[TL: XXC says "don't do coke in the bathroom"]

Shout out to the Spanish speaking MXTX fans. I don't think this is remotely what you wanted. (bonus below cut, TW: Drugs)

I am very curious to know what old-school Splatoon fans thought when these dropped.

Psalm 96:1-2 (NASB1995) - Sing to the LORD a new song; Sing to the LORD, all the earth. Sing to the LORD, bless His name; Proclaim good tidings of His salvation from day to day.

Pearl s hair was up in a brunette ponytail, one of the two things that were drastically different from her usual appearance, the other being a scar that went from the very bottom corner of her eye that went down to her cheek

Pearl approached the door to grians hospital room, opening it up and searching for her brother

[ Grian was laying in bed, glancing at his phone every once in a while - his expression beaming as soon as he saw Pearl enter.

He tried sitting up, but a nurse stopped him]

"miss, please, you need rest, if you won't sleep at least-"

"but Pearl's here!"

"your sister pearl?"

[Grian nodded, and the nurse sighed, turning to pearl]

"I'm sure she'll understand why you need to lay down, miss."

[Grian's expression dimmed just slightly at being called miss, but he immediately bounced back smiling up at his sister]

"I've missed you! Happy Christmas! My- uh- my gift's st home…"
