This Ravenous Fate

start of a sapphic YA duology set in 1920s Harlem, in a world where reapers (vampires) are the result of horrific human experimentation

follows a reluctant heir to a powerful reaper-hunting family, who has just returned from paris

and her childhood best friend who she hasn’t seen since she was turned and almost killed her five years ago

in the wake of a string of murders, they’re forced to work together to find out how they’re linked, and investigate rumours of a cure

Advent Calendar 2022: Day 10

A story of 25 christmases with the love of your life, Dean Winchester.

(These are not stand-alone drabbles, you must read them as a whole).

Day 9

You kiss your best friend. On your 24th Christmas, you're so drunk out of your mind that you make the terrible mistake of kissing Dean with all the love you have for him. This year, both Bobby and John are busy with hunting, so you decide not to celebrate the holidays with them and go on your own to a Christmas party with your old college buddies. It’s all going relatively smoothly, and it would’ve remained that way if you hadn’t witnessed Dean flirting with that cute guest. One thing led to another and just as he was about to leave with her to the motel, the alcohol was already too strong in your system.

That's how you decide to be brave in the face of your feelings for the first time. When he searches for you to let you know about his plans for the night, you confront him about leaving you and other buildup resentments. You realize the danger of your argument when you have the impending desire to pin him to the wall and kiss him senselessly. It’s especially painful when you do just that and afterward, he stands there, watching you with an open mouth. You don’t stay long enough for him to say anything about it. You're no stranger to rejection, but rejection from Dean sounds like another level of pain.

Day 11

season one of supernatual is so funny to me. sam and dean will literally show up to the crime scene in some fuck ass flannels and dean is in his leather jacket and the cops are like "who the hell are you?" and dean will be like "oh, us? well we are obviously from the us fish and wildlife service who else could we possibly be???" 

meanwhile theyre in the craziest outfits known to mankind with no badge or anything, so the cops will ask for their IDs and they'll hand them the most unconvincing fake id you'll ever see. the thing will be crumpled to no return and look like it was all hand written by a toddler and SOMEHOW THE COPS STILL BELIEVE THEM??

and then, they'll start questioning the victims family like "aw man :( I'm so sad for you :( that must be really hard :( so like what happened? and on a completely separate note, did you see anything? feel a temp drop? did you feel a cold spot? did you see something weird? like a creature mayhaps? like a ghost? did you see a ghost? do you believe in ghosts? please tell me it's a ghost?" like that's a totally normal line of questioning for a random drowning from two members of the us fish and wildlife service.

Short recap of Ghost Catherine in reply to @victoriasimsblog

Catherine is a ghost from Alice's side of the family. Alice grew up with her and always refers to her as her sister. What she never mentioned though, was the fact that this sister died around the time she was born.

Shortly after Robert's birth, Alice learned from her so-called brother that Catherine is actually her mother. James told her that she was raped by a soldier and died giving birth to Alice. The family hushed up the scandal and raised Alice as a third, much younger child. As the truth will only bring disadvantages, Alice still refers to James and Catherine as her brother and sister. She means to tell her children the whole story when they're older.

Catherine came with Alice when she married Matthew and is helping her raise the children. This includes Alasdair. He has a strong affinity for the supernatual and when he was smaller he saw her as just another member of the household. At that time he didn't mind her showing up in his bedroom to listen to his troubles.

She also rescued him from one of his erratic time-travels.

Of course Catherine also watches over her grandchildren, but the boys are so close to each other, they don't usually need her to talk to. She's closest to her namesake Catherine McCarric, so far the only girl. Cathy refers to her as her Secret Sister, which sounds to all the world like she made her up as an imaginary friend.

In the meantime, Catherine's friendship with Alasdair is slowly getting overshadowed by his growing up and being less ready to confide in a ghost - a female one at that! Neither Alasdair nor young Cathy know who Ghost Catherine actually is. To them she's just the friendly spook that haunts the McCarric house.

Episode 6 and my own prediction about the ending

TL;DR: Wherether Billy find Tommy or not, he will live as a Kaplan. Idk about Agatha, she's so chaotic so anything is possible with her.

I'm gonna write timeline wise so it won't be confusing.

Billy, as a 2-3 day olds, was kidnapped by a witch and fought soliders. Plus literally said farewell to his parent and sibling (althought I don't think he knew at the time, Wanda probably subconscious sealed him from that thought). And then his existence is turned to dust (puns). All of this is probably as trauma as one normally can possibly imagine, much as a mind-reader. His last memory is saying good night to his brother, Tommy.

Then, he wakes up in a body which wasn't his, in a scenario that is definitely traumatizing to a... toddler, with people who he didn't know but has memories of, and the name Tommy.

Now, here is few reasons why at this point, I think it is super logical for Billy to want to find Tommy, but not Wanda or Vision:

Tommy is his brother, who he says hi first thing in the morning and good night last at night. Twins bond, look at Wanda and Pietro for more example.

He probably see and feel as Tommy got hexxed out alongside him.

I think William Kaplan is definitely dead (Agatha said "empty vessel"), but as Billy took over, he received William's memories too. Hence the confused about his identity, because speaking memories-wise:

William's memories is 13 years long.

Billy's memories is a week at best.

Compare those two, it makes sense for Billy to convince himself that he is William Kaplan, and the whole WandaVision probably a weird dream. Plus, there is the Kaplan family right there to reassure that William part. Where is Wanda? That confusion and all the trauma he experienced definitely make his "Billy" memories cloudy. (not totally related but Joe Locke performance in these scene was amazing, to said the least almost trigger me). He said he doesn't remember anything before the accident, but I think those are just foreign to him "Billy", so he bury them all.

But of course, he knows that is not true. That is why over 3 years, he researched a lot about supernatual and magic stuffs (and definitely practiced practical magic) and about the Hex, which is super hard to investigate because people there who know about Wanda, Vision and the twins don't want to talk about it. So all he knows about Wanda is:

His happy memories of his mother, who fought and protected him and Tommy. But also caused pain to people of Westview.

The information on the internet about Wanda, which is definitely not pretty.

(Here is also why he trusted Agatha at first, or tried to. Because his memories of her and the information of her on the internet is almost resemble of Wanda's)

And then Bohner confirmed all of Billy's confused memories about Wanda, Agatha and the existence of Tommy. Because up until that point, there is no information about Tommy (Westview people don't want to talk about it, remember?), so if that crazy man also know Tommy, then he is real. That is why Billy set out to find Tommy first, the only person he can trust to help him find Wanda later.

I don't write this as a justify for whatever his actions was/will be revealed, but to me, it is logically fitting to him.

Now, come to the tl;dr, I think a long the way, Agatha will reveal to him that his way of taking a vessel is as broken as his mama took control of Westview, and then help him clear/merge the memories somehow.

There is a possibilty of Tommy there, which is definitely gonna be a surprise, but given 3 eps, the ending with Billy being a normal emo gay kid living with the Kaplan, finally can control his magical power is more possible to scramble in (because we also have the main story of Agatha there to solve).

[knivestothroats]

What was buck’s “cringy stage” ? (we all had them. It’s okay to admit)

Ok I've done a lot of throwing around ideas for this because I feel like this is truly a question that informs a lot about his character lol. Because like, those phases stick with you. I never stopped being an emo kid. Also, he spent a lot of time growing up just trying to mold himself to his parent's expectations.

I don't think that he was an emo or nu-metal kid because I kind of establish that he doesn't like the hardcore music that Fletcher (who WAS an emo kid, btw) was playing. (Not that everyone gets into progressively harder music, but I sure did.) He was also deeply closeted so I think he would refrain from anything that would make him seem like a sissy in the eyes of a manly man like his dad. So no skinny jeans and painted nails. Swoopy bangs are still a possibility bc that was just in fashion.

And I thought, band kid? Should I give him some attribute like "knows how to play oboe?" But that's not really a cringy phase so much as being a nerd in school.

I thought about him having a super christian phase bc I def knew kids who went through that and would like pick fights over it and then like grew up to be nice and well adjusted people later. And it would make sense especially since he was closeted in a homophobic family that he would like double down... but that's not a fun answer to a fun question.

My partner and I threw ideas back and forth for a while, most of which was in person but I do have these screenshots

I do feel like being into Supernatual is one of the most realistic options so far lol because like kinda does fall in line with his whole survivalist shtick in a way. It's like hyper-masculine to the point of wrapping around to being camp gay. It was on air for like 15 years or whatever so def while Buck was a teenager.

Honestly, I could say Buck got into that lol so random/rage comics/bacon and mustaches on everything internet culture because. let he who didn't XD cast the first stone.

I will take input if anyone has any ideas on this bc I think it is a fun conversation lol

Recap: Strangetown Round 5 (Summer) - part 3

Next is Martin Ruben, whose dream of becoming one of Strangetown's mad scientists is shattered when he's fired on his very first day.

But he recovers quickly, finding a new job in game development, reading a few self help books, making a friend a work and buysing himself a ZX Spectrum. He even adopts a cat, Bailey!

He ends up going on a pretty sucessful date with Sadie, an agressive (and a little socially awkward) sorority girl he met back at college.

Then it's time for the Giekes - Chester Gieke, his wife Bianca, their daughter Giorgia and her best friend Kent Capp.

Kent gives his niece, Hermia, some friendly advice about being true to yourself.

They get a little mad-science lab-garage! Bianca finally has room for the culinary career reward (which I am pretending Chester built for her).

To Capp off the round, Bianca goes out for an interesting meal with Albanny Capp, who apparently wants to discuss a plan to end the feud...

Now it was time to check in with the Smiths! The Smith household has been quiet, this summer. With Julia at summer camp, Jill at college, Johnny moved in with Ophelia, and PT#9 gone… the house is feeling emptier and emptier.

Jess is set to become a teenager this season, and Jenny has to admit she’s dreading it. Still, the two of them make the best of things.

They have plenty of phone-calls with Julia while she's at camp.

And plenty of dinners with family & friends! Don is a friend of Jenny's from work, and he brings along Bella, who's eager to talk about the ghosts she senses...

Jess meets PT9's ghost, too! But she's nervous about talking to Jenny about it, so confides in cousin Tycho.

(She also meets her bestie Xander Roth at an outing Downtown, and it was so cute I had to include it.)

Jess grows into a knowledge sim - all too common in her family but pretty fitting, I think! She likes boys but prefers fancy boys. Boys with a good sense of hygine (uncommon for teenagers, lmao), maybe some cologne, maybe some jewelry.

Her traits now are childish, supernatual fan, cat lover, and the newly-aquired eco-friendly! I like the idea of her love of animals (well, cats) turning her into a little environmentalist.

Her one true hobby is games and she’s a taurus. Oh, and the Lifetime want is to become a World-Class Ballet Dancer! I think that’s perfect for a whimsical romantic like her :D (and she did prance around in that pink princess dress for most of her childhood, haha)

She and the other Strangetown Teens go on a little outing together downtown.

Johnny & Ophelia come over for a visit, and Jenny gives Ophelia some old baby stuff... (which they'll be needing sooner than they thought!)

[simply-ellas-stuff]

Okay, so heres a thought:

Coach knew Scott, Isaac, Erica, Boyd, Liam, and every other teen wolf were wolves not because he paid attention or ‘it’s Beacon Hills’ but because he was friends with a couple Hales who died in the fire.

 He loved a Hale. That’s why he knows. He loved a Hale and lost them in the fire. He went to school with a ton of Hales [like we know the family had to be big for them to burn down a fucking house to kill almost all of them], so he’s friends with a few and falls in love with one and he’s let in on the secret. Because duh, thats what Wolves do - they tell the people they love.

But after the fire, Coach went cold. He kept the secret, protected the hell out of it, and was always able to pick up on who was the supernatual kid through out the years while he was teaching. But he never lent it that he knew. Because he wasn’t going to get close to his wolfy students only to watch them all die like he’d done before.

He doesn’t seem surprised Isaac listened to Scott. He didn’t even try to get between Isaac and Ethan, he just yelled a lot. Coach is a big guy, he probably would’ve been able to yank Isaac away from Ethan however, Someone who knows would know better than to put themselves between claws and prey.

I fully think Coach always knew. And I now hold the headcanon that he once loved a Hale.

And maybe the reason Danny knows is that he’s secretly Coach’s godson or something and he let him in on the secret when he started dating Ethan, maybe after Danny tried to physically stop Isaac from going after Ethan.

The dads as Monster of the Week playbooks

Glenn Close - The Spooktacular - I know this class is kinda circus-focused, but I think the skills provided could easily adapt to the rock n' roll coverband entertainer. The charisma and even monstrous attributes could be part of his character.

Henry Oak - The Spooky, OR The Chosen - My argument for the spooky mainly lines up with how Henry is freaked out by discovering his powers in canon, and it gets further that way as he discovers all the eldritch spooky stuff about his family. Otherwise, The Chosen would reflect his 'unsung hero' prophecy stuff. By the end of season 1, it's kinda like his luck ran out and his future got doomed.

Ron Stampler - The Mundane - Honestly the best argument I have for this is that one of the images depicting this class in the MOTW handbook is my Ron facecanon. It just vibes. It also feels the most comical in contrast to his super evil magical sorcerer dad.

(I read this in Beth May's Ron voice)

Darryl Wilson - The Wronged?? - I dont totally know for Darryl to be honest. The Wronged could be a title given later on in his arc, maybe?

Bonus: Scam Likely - The Crooked or Spooktacular - The most delightful criminal character, who is also definitely a supernatual entity. Very charming and tricky and WILL steal all your stuff via stupid hijinks.

Peter was never really sure what he wanted to do as a career. He mostly flew through his subjects at school, taking on extra study at home into druidic practices out of pure interest. He never found much of it particularly stimulating. As a result of this, he tested out of high school early, finishing a whole year before his peers (yes he rubs this in the face of Harris, who was the year above him in school). So, with an attitude like that and money to burn, Peter pursued multiple bachelor's degrees. 

He has a bachelor's in literature and one in law. He's always thought he should go back to school just to keep himself occupied but the more trouble Beacon Hills gets itself into, the more his hackles rise and his need to be close to home to protect his family only becomes stronger. He spent a large amount of his childhood babysitting, cooking and cleaning, taking care of not just his own children but also the children of the neighbourhood. Who was he to refuse playdates, particularly when local parents were in need of a helping hand?

Peter has dabbled in a few different fields of work, from working with his degrees to menial work for family businesses, but nothing seems to stick. He has his hobbies but he doubts any of them could suffice as a career, like his enjoyment for cooking (but he could never work in a kitchen).

One business that he seems to always come back to, is his interior design work. He only takes clients that he is genuinely interested in working with, and makes sure to do his work to the finest detail perfectly. Clients don't always react well to working with a middle aged man, but he loves being able to prove them wrong. He only does a few jobs each year, whenever the desire strikes, but he enjoys it.

Peter is a man with a lot of spare time and a lot of money.

His wealth of course lends itself to more expensive hobbies but he has never done anything you'd consider.. tasteless. He doesn't own boats, he doesn't 'flex' as he's heard the pups call it. He keeps it to himself. He owns a warehouse out in Beacon County where he stores his small car collection, something he hopes to sink more money into in future. 

He also collects old books. Books on the supernatural, on the old gods, old literature, first editions, books about magic forgotten by time, on druidic practices, anything bound with leather or cloth that costs over $50. He loves his small library (he owns not only his penthouse apartment but also one of the apartments on the floor below for just this purpose). Sometimes he wonders if he should buy a regular house.

His aspirations now pertain mostly to his pups. He wants to see them all graduate, and end up in places in their life where they're happy. He wants to help them in any way that he can. He has considered taking in some younger pups, adopting them, but he doesn't think Talia would approve. Some small part of him also aspires to finally escape from Talia's grip, but another part of him feels guilty for even thinking it. That's his sister.

Peter Hale is a family man. He was close with both of his parents for different reasons, and had special, unique relationships with each of his siblings. Though, this changed the older he became. Talia was his idol, Mae taught him control, George taught him how to fight and Celia was his best friend. When his siblings began having children, they became his whole world.

Out of all his siblings, he has given the most bottles, changed the most diapers and soothed the most scraped knees. It got to a point where some of his nieces and nephews would come to him with their problems over their own parents. It wasn't that they neglected their children, they didn't do that by any measure, (except for Talia, though Peter hated to admit it), he was just always there for them. Their parents worked, Uncle Peter took them to the park, their parents got home late, Uncle Peter cooked them dinner, their parents were too busy to make all their events, Uncle Peter went to every last dance recital, concert and basketball game.

He often got curious looks from teachers and parents, but Peter didn't care. He was there for his nieces and nephews, no matter what they needed. He'd pick them up from school and walk them home or wait for them when one of their parents was going to be late. One of Laura's teachers once asked if Peter was okay, she was worried he was caring for his nieces and nephews alone, but he only laughed. Of course, he wasn't, but also of course he would if he needed to. They're family.

Peter was an accident. It’s no secret in his family. At first, it had been something said by his mother, she wanted no secrets kept from him, and it was something to boast about. Some children were hated for being accidents, but Peter was loved despite it. When his mother died, his father changed that. Sometimes, in the cold, darkness of winter nights, Peter was sure he could hear his father muttering that his mother’s death was his fault.

When his eldest niece Laura was born, he was just five years old. He didn’t entirely understand what had happened except now he had someone new to look after and play with. He would sit in her nursery to play with his toys. This was when Talia still cared, so she would gently remind him to be quiet near the baby and to be gentle with her when he cuddled her. He was always gentle. He wouldn’t dream of hurting the baby.

He was seven when Derek was born, so he was old enough to understand everything and to want to help as much as he could. Though he wasn’t trusted with the baby just yet, this is when Talia’s care began to wander and so he was told that to help he could look after Laura. Peter agreed. He would sit with Laura in Derek’s nursery, and they would play and do colouring, just making sure the baby was okay. Derek had been born so close to Peter’s birthday that he had joked that Derek was his birthday present, him being born was like being given another friend.

When Iris was adopted he was eight. He welcomed her just the same, trusted slightly more with her than he had been with Derek when he’d first been born, but George also took more care with his daughter than Talia did with hers, so Peter felt less need to watch over her. Sometimes Derek was left crying for a long time, so Peter and Laura would climb into his crib, Iris rarely cried. She was a happy baby.

He was fourteen when Charlie was born, and then Cora. By now, he was more than just good with kids and so he took to them both like a duck to water. He loved them dearly. Laura was nine so she helped Peter where she could, though he made sure that she never did as much as he did. She was too little, not like Peter. Talia by this point had lost almost all of her interest in her children, so Peter took over. Not like Nathaniel had ever cared.

When Charlie went missing, it consumed Peter. He was just sixteen. He spent an entire year looking for him. It became his job, his life. Every morning, he ate breakfast so he'd have the energy to look for his nephew, he ate lunch so he wouldn't crash, he slept so he'd be rested enough to use his senses to their full potential. Then, one day, Talia told him to stop. They had quite the argument about it, Peter was desperate to find his nephew and Talia claimed Mae was more upset by his trying because she couldn't mourn her loss. So, he stopped. But he never let go of the hope that his nephew was out there, somewhere, safe, and happy.

During the time Charlie was missing, early on, he met an older woman named Corinne while he was out asking about Charlie. She could tell he was in distress and thought he was cute. She took advantage of this. Later that year, his daughter Malia was born, and Talia couldn't stand it, so she took away his memories of his daughter, made sure Corinne would never return, and put Malia into the adoption system as she had with Charlie.

Now, Peter has another son. A son of his own. Theo Raeken had turned up one day on his doorstep, soaking wet from the rain, with just a backpack and looking like he’d been crying. Theo had killed his previous ‘guardians’ and now needed somewhere to go. He’d known he could trust Peter. So, he took the Chimera in without a moment’s hesitation, finding comfort in having someone else in his large and empty apartment and enjoying having someone to care for again. It didn’t matter that Theo wanted it to be a secret, Peter was just happy to have someone to cook for and help with homework again.

Peter has never been someone who made friends. He had however been friends with the late Claudia Stilinski, and her husband Noah. When Claudia passed away, he became even closer with Noah, helping him with his almost addiction.

The only other real friend that he has is the newest addition to the Sheriff's department, one Jordan Parrish. An unlikely friendship that means a lot to Peter. Jordan was close to his age, just four years younger, where his other friend Noah was sixteen years older. It was nice to have someone he could relate to, joke with, and feed. Peter feeds everyone he cares about, especially his friends living in run down apartments that clearly have troubled pasts.

ʀᴏᴍᴀɴᴛɪᴄ

When Peter was sixteen, he got into a 'relationship' with Corinne, also known as the Desert Wolf. This relationship led to Corinne becoming pregnant with Peter's child and giving birth to Malia. Peter was being manipulated by the significantly older woman, it was clear to everyone when he told them about her. Talia resented that he'd had a child so young when the town's eyes were already on her because of how he treated her own children, so she took Peter's memories and put Malia up for adoption, erasing her from the family.

Following the trend of Peter preferring those older than him, he also fell into bed with one Deucalion Blackwood, who later became the Alpha of Alphas. Peter was nineteen this time around and so while it was legal, Deucalion was still much older than he was and so it was thrilling. The relationship was almost entirely sex and Peter loved it. He grew to love Deucalion. But, the other man didn't feel the same. After he became blind, he left Beacon Hills behind without so much as a goodbye.

ᴘʜʏꜱɪᴄᴀʟ ʜᴇᴀʟᴛʜ

As a Werewolf, Peter’s body is in peak physical condition. Though, he still takes time to exercise to maintain his shape, because although his body was naturally inclined to health and wellness, that doesn’t mean he should let himself slack.

ᴍᴇɴᴛᴀʟ ʜᴇᴀʟᴛʜ

Peter has never been officially diagnosed with anything. This is something he holds onto no matter how people fight it. He refuses to be anything other than "normal" (though this is never something he'd force on others, just a strange standard he set for himself). Though, if you took him to a professional, he would undoubtedly be diagnosed with Autism.

Also, Peter has issues with anxiety. Had the fire happened, who could know how severe that would have become. Before Deucalion, Peter was generally uncaring for others unless they were family, but being involved with someone else opened him up to more feelings and so now has something of an abandonment issue problem. He also has issues with anxiety when it comes to departing from his routines.

Peter would say, looking back, that he might have had depression as a teenager. From around the time Cora was born. But he didn't have time to be depressed, he had little ones depending on him and grades to get. Besides, his siblings only just had time for their own kids they didn't have time for him. So, he ignored it. He packed all his issues into a little box and just kept going, his pups as the only highlight of his very gloomy life. He isn't sure it ever went away, but it got easier. Even if it did get a whole lot worse when his mother died. It's been creeping its way back in since he moved out, but he refuses to move back home or visit too often, lest Talia say something about it.

TW: Suicide attempt, Depressive thoughts, mention of vomit

Following his relationship with Deucalion, his mental health took a dive. There was a time where he thought he'd never come out of the dark spot. He wasn't helping the pups like he should, he was falling behind in school. It was hard. He couldn't find any positives, any silver linings, no reason to keep going. The pups had plenty of family, and even if they'd miss him, they'd learn to live without him. Maybe their lives would finally be normal. So.. he tried to OD.

Peter's attempt did not succeed. Of course it didn't, his body processed the pills quickly and he was throwing them up before he could even process that he felt sick at all. After that, the depression got worse for a while. He felt guilty for trying to leave, he hated himself for having to stay, he spoiled the pups for weeks following it just to make up for a sin they didn't know he'd committed. He never told anyone. They didn't need to know that he'd tried to take the coward's way out, since some part of him knew that an OD just wouldn't take.

ᴇᴀᴛɪɴɢ

Peter enjoys cooking, particularly for others, and so he often eats well. He shops at the farmer’s market, buying the highest quality ingredients possible in order to ensure that himself, and those he cares about, eat the best that they can. It’s important - and Peter is just a little bit of a snob when it comes to food.

Peter’s memory is significantly above average, that was how he managed to become so educated. He remembers every birthday, every event, every embarrassing thing you wish he’d forget.

ꜱʟᴇᴇᴘɪɴɢ

Peter really values his sleep. He doesn’t often nap, but it’s important to him that he gets at least seven hours of sleep each night, though he prefers at least nine. He likes to sleep. Though, he doesn’t object to sleeping less if he’s needed for something.

New Muse Alert

If anyone has watched the series Tracker on CBS, please come talk to me about it. Season 1 just ended Sunday and I have so much muse for this character- his name is Colter Shaw. I haven't updated my carrd yet but yes I am already excited about this character. And I have two verses for him at the moment (always open to plotting more) but there is his canon verse:

Lone-wolf survivalist Colter Shaw roams the country as a reward seeker, using his expert tracking skills to help private citizens and law enforcement solve all manner of mysteries while contending with his own fractured family.

And a supernatural verse where he's the half brother of Sam and Dean. (This is because Jensen guest stared on Tracker as Colter's older brother and there were so many easter eggs to Supernatual that it can't even be ignored.

Rūrangi Season 2 is out!

Out. Haha. See what I did there?

I enjoyed it a lot, even though I was dubious about some of the recasting, I was brought around. My main problem is that while Season 1 felt like a complete story (hence them being able to re-edit it into a movie) - albeit one with character arcs open to exploration - Season 2 is really only the first half of several stories.

There had BETTER be a Season 3, is what I'm saying.

More thoughts, with spoilers, under the cut.

My biggest worry was the recasting of Jem. Arlo Green was just ADORABLE in the role, and I didn't know if anyone else could exude that kind of sweet earnestness. Liam Coleman does a pretty good job! I think that he's sometimes anxious rather than sweet, but Jem's social anxiety is explored this season anyway, and I loved seeing Jem awkwardly flirting with Caz, and I also loved that we got the 'ride or die, we've been friends forever' vibe.

We also had Gerald recast, with Kirk Torrence leaving in favour of Cohen Holloway. Holloway is the "Werewolves, not swearwolves" guy from the WWDITS movie, but once you get past this I thought he was okay. He seems about 10-15 years younger than Torrence, and some of his lines I could imagine coming better from the original, but he DID manage to give us the dad (and DILF) energy the role needs.

I enjoyed Anahera's arc, which moved on beautifully from her Season 1 arc. I especially loved how it went from her reciting her pepeha to actually going out and putting her hands in the awa (river). Also her cousin is Anika Moa. Love it. Less love for the suggestion of an interesting supernatual ancestor-connection storyline which didn't have enough time to get off the ground this season.

Poor Caz! I'm so glad he's finally opening up about Andy Ainofo, but he's got SO much processing that he hasn't been able to do, and I really want him to get through it so he can be the awesome devoted boyfriend Jem deserves. I thought there was such an interesting contrast in the way he was immediately all-in on supporting the queer youth of Rūrangi, and didn't quite see that Jem was actually at the same stage of coming out and exploring his identity and probably needed that same support.

I absolutely cheered at the end of episode two when Jem and Caz made out! I felt bad for Jem - he was having some body issues in comparison to Caz, and THEN finds out he's competing with the memory of an actual pro athlete? Poor guy :-( I can also see how from Caz's POV this is something they've done before, Jem is safe and familiar; whereas for Jem it is kind of all new for him.

So as far as I can see, these are the plot threads left CRUELLING DANGLING:

Gerald's heritage - he seems to have been adopted as a baby by a Pākehā family, and is very wary or uncertain about what his Māori heritage means for him and how to interact with the local iwi

Caz's trauma - he needs to process A LOT, for someone good at being emotionally astute and supportive with The Youths, he has some blind spots (like taking Jem for granted)

Jem's confidence, and his relationship with Caz <3

The phosphate ballot (and Gerald's bees)

The housing development

Whatever Anahera's grandmother did, and her connection to her tipuna who she resembles so closely

Anahera and Ellie's flirtation

The little baby queers, including the homophobic mayor's kid

Whatever the supernatural fuck is going on in Rūrangi

Me figuring out where exactly this was filmed

Did I miss anything?
