hi, i wanna hear about your texlaw headcanons 👉👈
yayyyyyy thank you (also thank u @lazy-toad for asking too!!) okay here we go uhh this is gonna be so long and rambly
I'm gonna talk about this super specific thing I've built up around them that makes me insane, which is like about how they each had someone else at the compound and the way that relates to like iterative personhood and stuff
because like. Blue is the one who saved Tex. They clearly had a strong rapport, from everything that was happening in 93.
And Outlaw had his own Michael, whoever it was that inspired him to go rogue. We know a lot less about them but like, clearly they had a strong relationship too.
And if either of their views on iterative personhood were as strong as they say they are, it'd still be fairly interesting but not as compelling as I think it is. Because Tex would 'know' Outlaw isn't Blue, and Outlaw would 'know' that all the Michaels are the same person so he basically has his Michael back.
But they're both lying to themselves when they act like they know these things! They both show clear cognitive dissonance on their rigid views on this topic--basically all Mike Walters won't trust any Ty, including baby Ty who, to be clear, has not done anything to them. And if you think iterations are separate people, logically that means that the same person, separated by time, is not actually the same person anymore. Cognitive dissonance. And Tys treat different iterations differently. Hey Blue, you can't have a favorite Michael if you think they're all the same person! So both of them *actually* have a much more fuzzy view than they admit.
I just love thinking about how that would play out between them.
Like, Tys hurt Michaels. A lot. But Outlaw never hurt Tex. and so when Tex distrusts Outlaw at first (another hc but a reasonable one I think), thats another point in cognitive dissonance for him.
honestly even if Tex's beliefs were rigid, it has to be weird looking at the face of someone who you cared for, who is dead, but this isn't them actually. It's someone else. And to Outlaw, it is the same person. But is it? They have the same laugh, make the same jokes. There are the small differences though. Maybe Tex smiles brighter than Michael did. Maybe Outlaw takes his coffee black, where Blue always had his tea with lots of cream and sugar.
ANYWAYYYYY sorry I warned you it was gonna be long. I just can't stop thinking about them
#i didn't even get into the one-sided enemy thing the tys and mike walterses have that gets me so good and how that makes texlaw fun#i love them so much yall#texlaw#wbg#my asks#my posts#picturemecountingcards

Remember when Texas base was cool and fun…?
Anyway I am highly unlikely to finish this so enjoy the sketch!! Love these cowboys! Also fun fact, I am a horsegirl, if I was in Woe.begone land I’d have a Bluster TikTok.
#I just miss them so much#also I’ve been thinking about Texlaw a lot lately#I feel a change coming#my Edgar fixation is ending and my Ty obsession is reawakening#woe.begone#w.bg#wbg#woe.begone podcast#mike walters

Can I say something controversial about WOE.BEGONE? Well I'm doing it anyway.
I don't think Michael flirting with Sly when he's already met him in the future is a big deal at all, it's probably one of the more healthy way of meeting your partners (next to Mikey manipulating Edgar and what Texlaw has going on*)
It's not really like he was manipulating Sly with big secrets that he figured out from the future, he came to his bar because he knew Sly will help protect them from the Flinchites - which he did and which they needed.
And Sly was absolutely flirting back. He talks to Michael for two minutes and offers to teach him how to ride a motorcycle. He was into Michael.
#woe.begone#*they're absolutely dating and i DO believe in iterative personhood#but also he is dating ty betteridge. a ty betteridge who has tortured mikes before#of course outlaw has proven himself by now#its still a wtf factor and i do kinda get old man's reaction to chance suggesting theyre together - even if i 1000% support and love texlaw#slychael

Also PLEASE tell me your thoughts about Texlaw potentially being canon. Michael (OF ALL PEOPLE) insisting that it could "never" happen was so ironic
GOD!! I'M SO!!! I do like them a lot and I really appreciate them as a pair whether romantically or not.
I think it's interesting that Michael pretty much said that a Mike would never be with a Ty, and yet he also said that he'd never let a Ty into his home and obviously Tex readily let Outlaw into his home!
I love the idea of romantic Outlaw/Tex, and I also really love the idea that they're just two guys that are a pair that everyone assumes are together romantically because they're a package deal!
I really do want to see some of the other Mikes' reactions if Tex and Outlaw ARE in fact a romantic pair. I think it's interesting to see a Mike - specifically a Michael - be so close to a Ty iteration and I have a feeling that the other Mikes would react much the same way as Michael did if it came out that they were dating!
Overall I need them to be alive and happy together whether that's platonically, romantically, queerplatonically, or some secret fourth option
#not sure if this answered the question much lmao but I do like them both romantically and non-romantically#and I love that there's an obvious route for them to go both ways in canon#I also loved Michael's reaction to the possibility of them being romantic partners#it makes you wonder about if they had been together would we even know?#the whole podcast is narrated by other Mikes and it makes sense that they wouldn't entertain that possibility unless outlaw and tex#were making out in the middle of the living room or something#w.bg spoilers

for the shipping bingo: Matt/David (the grotto) and/or Tex/Outlaw
Texlaw since, as much as I love The Grotto I don't actually have a lot of shippy feelings about it. I'm mostly just mentally shaking Matt like that one Homestuck panel.
I love Texlaw so much. It's wild how wholesome they are too, considering uh, everything.

I recently found this song and it gives me mad woe.begone vibes but I can’t place why so I just have to show you and hope you get it 😭
here’s the YouTube link bc idk where you listen to music to
PARIS PALOMA ❗❗❗ She's really amazing, I love her music!
This is really peak woe.begone core
Do I not fear death, but just pretend to?
For it was starving, it was hungry But had eyes too close to let me If you were easy to kill, I would have done it already
For you were lonely, you were like me Like some outside force had sent me If I was easy to kill, you would have done it already
Living beings pitted against each other through desperation for survival (just don't die) or an outside force (we're all puppets being posed by gods)
Though this song ends on a happy note, where they both live together in peace instead of killing one another.
#glendover#paris paloma#woe.begone#asks#it reminds me of mikey and edgar (them building a life together despite the constant death)#and kiiinda of texlaw (but thats because ive recently been super into texlaw again)#given that tex and outlaw were kinda sworn enemies but now!! theyre practically domestic cowboy husbands#argh also a bit of mikey/hunter - this song is so good for woe.begone stuff#it doesnt escape me that the title is called hunter sooo

Sorry I have nothing to say about the latest episode. Idk I’m so Edgarbrained twinkpilled that because his name wasn’t mentioned and Jeremy didn’t say anything my sleeperagent code wasn’t activated and I heard nothing.
Anyway Paul cages? I mean sure why not. That’s couple goals if Texlaw are committing crimes against nature together <3

a version of Michel and Ty!
Send me a ship and I will explain why I do or don’t ship it
Oh this is my JAM. I LOVE MichaelTy so so much! My favorite couple is Texlaw, Texas!Michael and Outlaw!Ty.
While other Mikes and Tys have interesting dynamics, Texlaw is my favorite of them all.
Outlaw was inspired by a Michael to leave the Compound and pursue his own identity, to become a cowboy and be someone else, someone that the Compound can't control.
Tex was set free by Blue who loved him and wanted to spare him a life of suffering. He sent him to Texas, per his wish and that's where Outlaw ended up when he heard there was a Michael there.
And their relationship isn't smooth from the very beginning, you can hear the tension in episode 106 or 108 where it's obvious that Tex doesn't trust Outlaw 100% and Outlaw thinks about returning to his experiments.
But in S11 when we see them again, suddenly it's changed. Outlaw and Tex are attached to the hip, they speak very fondly of each other (like when Tex goes "Outlaw's better than any witch, he's a scientist" he sounds so damn proud of him) and they're a great team.
They're vulnerable around each other and comfortable with showing affection. Outlaw breaks down in front of him and Tex doesn't hesitate to take him into his arms and comfort him.
They both escaped the oppressive Compound for the sake of living their true lives out in Texas and they've built up a small family that they'd kill and die for. Theyre amazing 💖💖
#woe.begone#wbg spoilers#texlas#outlaw!ty#texas!michael#asks#temnuk0#ahh i love them so m uch#even if they end up being platonic#or being a qpr couple#i just love their dynamic
