#succession 4

[turtlesallthewaytomgreg]

i think in the end, i want greg to spontaneously, in a burst of 'we're free' kind of energy, plant the most awkward, dry, mouth to mouth press on tom, and tom *pause* having received his permission to release 40 some odd years of repression, promptly launches a heated make out like he's flipping greg's desk. scene cut never address it.

There are absolutely NO WORDS to describe what Kieran Culkin has achieved this last season of Succession. I have been sad, angry, depressed, disappointed, and down bad with Roman all in 9 episodes. The absolute break in his voice, the whole "Is he in there? Can we get him out?" fucking crushed me. The need to get hurt, to prove that people don't know what roman has been through. Just in full awe. Give Kieran that Emmy cause he deserves it so much

Feel like Roman is Succession's Jamie Tartt at the moment

if i keep seeing so many people refer to ayden as an indication of an unknown softness in pelor i will start setting things on fire. just because YOU cannot handle nuance does not mean the story of exandria has not contained it and done so consistently. in fact the first in depth interaction that any party had with pelor (vex becoming his champion) was a portrayal of him that was explicit in his complexity. taken straight from the transcript for 1x104 elysium, “[vex you] spin and look, whereas there once was a burning star-- and to the rest of [vox machina], you see the painful, endless light that averts your gaze-- it doesn't hurt your eyes as much, and you can see the faint features, the soft cheeks, the hairless head, and the bright warm eyes of he who brings the dawn. And you can see the smile there, behind the light. “there is hope.”” sunlight can warm you and burn you in equal measure.

that burning image of the sun has much in common with a teenage boy who steps into a dark room, and reminds the dm that it’s not dark. the same way that a teenage boy who stands by as a woman who will not give up her worship of pelor is punished because he has more important responsibilities he must honour has much in common with a seemingly benevolent lord of the dawn might respond harshly to a cleric who asks if he is worth saving while he is trying to find a way to survive so he might keep helping to provide light. the gods aren’t simple and they never have been. i am as psyched about the particular angle that downfall is taking as anybody but it is already frustrating watching people act like the gods are suddenly more nuanced because they’re in literally mortal bodies when the entire Point of the gods in exandria in the various stories we’ve seen so far is that the only difference they have with mortals is the bounds of their power. they carry all the same flaws and the same profundity. just because so much of the fandom has reduced that to black and white flatness or faulty mapping onto real world religions (or the various traumas those might have caused individuals) doesn’t mean that complexity has been missing at all from the story.
