#spare me this nonsense please i cant take it anymore

[berenshand]

when some fashion brand calls their new dress 'bridgerton-inspired' but it has a corset/bustier bodice and doesn't even have an empire waist. 😒😒😒😒😒😒

[speckeltail]

as general or as specific as you please, thoughts on comics?

spare thots

comics bad

more seriously I both appreciate and ABHOR how rarely (to me!) it seems that comics (specifically the big two here, who have reboot after reboot) don’t seem to have... idk character bibles? and the characters have either gotten watered down, simplified, bowdlerized, or in general drifted from their original concept. which isn’t bad! I liked the Rebirth Captain Cold take even though it’s taken me years to admit it lmao. I liked that Lisa became a bigger part of the story. I like that Hartley got a boyfriend, and for all intents and purposes it’s a healthy gay relationship, and I like that it looks like he’s going to have a role re: Anti-Life Equation nonsense.

I don’t like whatever the hell RHatO is doing and haven’t followed it for literal years so okay whatever

fuck batman society has progressed past the need for batman (JK I STILL LOVE HIM I JUST-- PLEASE WE NEED ANOTHER CRISIS I CAN’T STAND THIS CURRENT CONTINUITY. LOIS AND TALIA WERE COLORED IN THE SAME SKIN TONE I CANT TAKE IT ANYMORE. DAMIAN WAS DRAWN LIGHTER THAN JON. AND DAMIAN’S HAIR IS TERRIBLE)

uhhh what else

give me more kyd wykkyd content!!! more klarion content! more villains that are just little assholes out to cause magical mayhem!

I’ve learned to pick and choose what I pay attention to in comics.

so....... comics good?

EDIT: ALSO [SPOILERS] IN THE VERY SAME COMIC I WAS EXCITED ABOUT HARTLEY HAVING A BIGGER ROLE THEY FUCKING KILLED STEPH

Unrequited

7: Run

You woke up, a crick in your neck and soreness between your legs. You felt stiff as a board and everything seemed to hurt, including your head.

Although it was fall, you felt oddly warm. Why had you been outside anyway? You couldn't remember. Finally mustering the strength to sit up you realized you were naked and on the roof of your and Jimin's favourite hang out spot.

It didn't occur to you what had happened until Jimin sat up as well rubbing his sleepy eyes.

He was naked. You were naked.

No, it couldn't have been, this is impossible...

That's why your parts hurt...

Fuck.

FUCK!

"Ahhh!!!" You screamed, it all clicking to you.

"Y/N?! Why are you naked?!"

"Why are you naked!?" You retorted.

"Well 'cause I.... I can't remember."

You saw the gears in his head turn. Even though you had already figured it out it was too embarrassing to tell him.

"No. W-we didn't do this...right?" He asked confused.

You pointed to your still sticky stomach.

"Unfortunately...the evidence is still here." You cringed, not wanting to touch it.

"Well at least I know how to fucking pull out I guess. For fucks sake... This is bad. Really bad." He grumbled running a stressed hand through his brown hair.

"We have class! Shit what time is it?" You questioned rushing to put your clothes back on.

"Forget it. It's twelve thirty already. There's no point." Jimin stated.

"Do you know how bad this is gonna look?! They're gonna think we fucked!" You cried.

"Technically we did..." He mumbled.

"I know that Jimin! God what am I gonna do? Cheol-min will kill me." You stated.

"Why do you even care about him?" Jimin mumbled under his breath.

"The fuck do you mean?! I cheated on him!" You yelled at Jimin.

"I mean yeah but... You weren't happy with him anyway." He stated.

Had he lost his mind?!

"Jimin!!! I'm a fucking cheater! It doesn't matter that my boyfriend is an asshat! I'm still in the wrong! I'm- I can't, I gotta go get my underwear, I'll be back.

You walked down the old stairs and put on your underwear and pants finally being fully dressed.

Once that was done, you went back to Jimin.

"I'm sorry for speaking nonsense. This really is juat a big mess isn't it?" He chuckled awkwardly.

"It's okay let's just go so that-"

"Freeze!"

You both jumped, almost falling through the hole in the roof.

"You're on private property and you both are supposed to be in school!" The cop yelled at you both.

"We're sorry! We'll be down immediately!" You called.

You pulled Jimin through the hole and down the stairs.

"You kids are in big trouble. What made you think it was okay to skip school? You're Park Jimin and Y/N Y/L, right?"

You nodded and gulped.

"You're looking at... three days of suspension for the both of you." The officer threatened.

Jimin bit his lip and darted his eyes from the cop, to the outstreching road, to his silver vehicle.

Making his final decision, he took your hand and squeezed.

"RUN!!!!" He yelled.

You both bolted down the street and took off.

The cop tried to chase after you but by the time he'd gotten into his vehicle you had shuffled down an ally, making him loose your path.

You panted looking at Jimin.

"W-what the fuck was that for?"

"He can't prove it if he doesn't have us." The boy replied.

"Why would it even matter? We've been suspended before." You pointed out.

You and Jimin used to be a bit more wild in your sophomore days.

"If you wanna go to prom, you can't have any offenses, and I didn't pay 150 dollars for a dress to not fucking go." He grumbled.

What about Jiae? I thought he'd be going to her, not the money he spent on her dress.

Maybe you were over thinking it.

"Come on, we've been here for a solid half hour. I'm sure the cop is gone." He stated and tugged you with him back to his car.

The cop gave Jimin a ticket which he begrudgingly intended to pay and went on his merry way not wanting to deal with two rebel teens.

"I'll drop you at home." Jimin said breaking the silence that had been suffocating you two.

"No. I can't go. I cant go home he'll kill me for sure." You sighed.

"Well... You're welcome at my place, but I cant guarantee it'll be peaceful either."

You nodded.

"What are we gonna do? We either divise a plan or come clean..." You mumbled.

For you, coming clean was hardly even an option. No way in hell were you going to subject yourself to that demon you called your boyfriend.

On the other hand Jimin already got enough yapping as it was. He couldn't stand to hear another jealous, venom coated, envious word come out of her mouth about you nor your relationship.

"So what's the plan?" He questioned, already knowing which route you had chosen.

"I don't know but all that alcohol on an empty stomach is making me-" You bolted out of Jimin's car and got sick in the grass.

"Making me sick. I was going to say making me sick." You complained, the killer headache overtaking you.

"That's it! You got sick!"

"Yeah asshole, as if you didn't just see me puke on an ant hill." You grumbled, making your way back to the carseat.

"No I mean, I'll say I arrived late to school and saw you running in the girl's bathroom and a wretching noise soon after. And since your parents don't live with you, I decided as your bestfriend to take care of you." He stated his well formulated plan.

"Okay, so what do we do right now?" You asked still burbbleing on the verge of vomiting once more.

"I get you to my place. You are sick after all. And I really would like you to not throw up in my car." He chuckled pulling out of his space.

Once there, Jimin carried you inside, grateful you didn't blow chuncks in his vehicle and safely put you on the couch, with a clean garbage bin of course.

Jimin, although it may not seem like it from his small stature, was really good at holding his alcohol, even if he drank to much.

You on the other hand wanted to be that one hard chick that could down 50 vodka shots and not be phased. But that wasn't the case. You were the queen of weak stomachs, always claiming you could handle more when you knew you'd regret it later.

"How ya doing sweetheart?" Jimin asked, coming to check on you after everything had been settled.

"Three words. Kill me now." You sighed.

"Well I have a couple pain killers for you. And some ginger ale. Hopefully that will pick you up." He offered.

You nodded as he guided you to sit up. You threw the two pills back and quickly drank the soda to wash them down.

The ginger helped soothe your stomach and you were soon back to chuckling at shows on Netflix, all while lying down of course. You didn't want to push your luck with the nausea.

Jimin had allowed you to borrow his spare charger and you phone had finally lit up.

15 text from Minnie

2 missed calls from Minnie

Holy shit were you in for it.

And the last two texts scared you.

You're over his house aren't you?

I'm coming, this is the last time I'll catch you cheating Y/N.

Tears sprung from your eyes. The way he typed that, you knew he was going to be ruthless and not just verbally any more. Most importantly, at least in your eyes, he was going to hurt Jimin. You were the target, he was the obsticle. You couldn't let that happen so you picked up you thing and bolted towards the door.

"Y/N? Where are you going?" He asked tenderly grabbing your sleeve.

"I can't stay here, he'll hurt you too! Don't follow me please!" You begged.

You dashed out the door, Jimin chasing after you. You weren't sure where you were going but you knew it had to be alone.

Let’s run run run again! I can’t stop running

Let’s run run run again! I can’t help running

Only thing I can do is run

Only thing I can do is love you

Jimin was worried sick, you'd turned a sharp corner and he couldn't find you anymore and that's when he began to panic. His house was now far away but it was getting dark and he had to find you before the nasty streets of Seoul did. With all the strength he still had he ran the other direction towards his residence. He'd left his phone and everything at home chasing after you.

Let’s run run run again! It’s ok to be injured

I am happy enough even though I can’t get you

Once he reached his front porch he caught his breath but not for long as he realized he didn't have much time.

He walked in, reached for his phone, and called the police.

They said it would take at least 30 minutes for them to round up a search party, which Jimin was less than pleased with. He wanted to see you. He wanted to know you were safe.

Run... Don’t tell me bye bye Run... You make me cry cry Run... Love is a lie lie Don’t tell me, don’t tell me Don’t tell me bye bye

please be okay

2x04 Thoughts

This is me trying to keep my cool throughout this episode.

Because FUCK YOU, Aldertree

And fuck the Clave

And fuck every damn shadowhunter out there

And fuck Simon too and his constant whining and total lack of respect for the very people WHO ARE KEEPING HIM ALIVE AND TAKING HIM UNDER THEIR WING WHEN THEY REALLY DONT FUCKING HAVE TO (spoiler alert I’m not talking about Clary here)

Ok but really, these people have their own CREEPY TORTURE CHAMBER WHERE YOU CAN HEAR THE AGONIZED SCREAMS OF THEIR PRISONERS, they literally torture people to get what they want and call it “motivation”, they punish their own people for not BLINDING AND UNCONDITIONALLY OBEYING THE CLAVE, and then someone - either show or fandom or whoever else - has the balls to present them as anything resembling heroes??? Oh no, I am officially DONE with this bullshit.

The Clave and the shadowhunters (INCLUDING THE ONES IN THE OPENING OF THE SHOW) are nothing more than a group of evil racist self-centered dickheads with a superiority complex the size of North America and if the show doesnt bloody address these things at some point, so help me God.

*deep breaths* more under the cut

Now that that’s out of the way, onto the rest of it. I think I’m gonna devide these reviews into three parts - things I liked, things I didnt like and things that flat out made no sense.

Things I liked include:

Magnus, of course (told you to get used to it); all of his scenes in this episode were very nicely done and emotionally-charged with the sprinkles of tragic backstory (though I do have some issues with that but onto it later). His conflict about whether or not to send Camille to Idris was also perfectly handled in my opinion as were their interactions. I loved the detail of him sending Raphael and Simon away so he could deal with her on his own. His bond with Raphael was also lovely to see and hopefully there will be more of it in the coming season.

Camille, however short her visit was, was also a delight. I really enjoy her as a villian, the way she’s not afraid to say what everyone else is too chicken to and the way she can quickly zero in on your weakness and play around with it.

The episode continues to build up my sympathy for Jace which I am very impressed by since I left s01 hating his guts for the most part. But damn if I dont want to give him a hug now. The poor kid tried to kill himself twice in this episode alone and tbh I am starting to understand some of his fans’ complains that this fandom just loves to hate/ignore him for the same things they adore Alec for. 

Things I didnt like:

Magnus sharing his suicide story with fucking Simon of all people. WHY?? Just why with him when they barely know each other and Simon has been nothing but an ungrateful brat to him?? Why Simon when RAPHAEL is right there and you’ve just established that he and Magnus shared a very close bond??? I get the writers wanted to reveal this information to the audience but my god, there were so much better ways to do it than bloody Simon. And then they’re gonna try to tell me that Mmagnus sharing his past with Alec is a big deal when he apparently just goes around and tells random semi-strangers about it too? Please, spare me this nonsense.

Speaking of Simon, his constant whining is really getting on my nerves. I get that he’s having a hard time but come the freak on already! He’s being self-centered enough to qualify as a shadowhunter. And I’ll probably never forgive him for getting Raphael into that mess so there’s that.

The... m@lec scene? If you can call it that. What even was that? First  Alec has absolutely no reaction to hearing Magnus will be punished for trying to help him and even has the audacity to joke about it and then he goes like oh, btw I tots felt you there with me and it made a difference. Excuse me, what? This is at best a retcon from the previous episode or at worst a lie from Alec in case Magnus doesnt want to sleep with him anymore. Because no, no, at NO point during the previous episode did the show give ANY indication that Alec felt Magnus’s presence and it affected him in any way. They even had the KISSING scene and that DIDNT BLOODY WORK. What nonsense is this now?? If the writers wanted to write in something to acknowledge Magnus’s efforts, fine but why write something that is blatantly not true, damnit???? just twinking the line a bit would have worked perfectly - like have Alec say Izzy told me you tried everything to save me and I’m grateful to you for your efforts or something! Still gets across the same idea but without turning your already assholish asshole into an even bigger asshole by having him blatantly lie to the guy he’s supposedly in love with and/or creating an unnecessary plothole.

Jocelyn not giving a crap about that other kid of hers who is currently locked in jail and suffering. Mother of the year, that one. And Clary not even once bringing up the fact that hey, maybe planning to leave for Idris and take only me is kind of a dickish move towards YOUR SON, REMEMBER HIM?

Luke being willing to leave his pack behind to go bang his shadowhunter girlfriend in Idris. Does... like does Luke remember he’s a werewolf now? An alpha at that? Who supposedly has responsibilities to his pack members and cant just up and abandon them cause he’s more interested in getting laid? If I didnt know any better I’d say he’s your typical shadowhunter. Which, you know, would have made for a very compelling story arc for Luke - having to adjust to a completely new way of life and having to shed all his previous prejudices and misconceptions about what DWs are like and what it means to be one and experiencing life on the other side of the devide, etc. But nooo, we just cant have nice things like that.

Things that didnt make sense:

Izzy suddenly having some sort of resentment towards Alec and thinking he’s the favourite child while she’s living in his shadow? What?

Raj continuing to be a dickhead for no apparent reason?

Clary killing the demon WITH A SINGLE LOUSY SLICE of her sword???

Demons not normally having cloaking abilities? Why? That’s like saying tigers dont have teeth or something.
