#that now I'm like knives out

[vaguely-concerned]

from what I infer from some of his dialogue, my guess is that while lucanis hasn't had a proper relationship before he has had one night stands and short term flings. and -- listen, I know he's a dick and a menace and probably a hopeless case but please do still spare illario dellamorte a moment of your thoughts and pity for the role of incredulous yet intrepid wing man that he's all but certainly had to play on several occasions for that to happen. there are 100% people out there who were trying SO fucking hard to get no strings attached laid by this stupidly hot emotionally unavailable mysterious stranger who won't be in town for long without lucanis ever realizing it. people who would have remained tragically unlaid if illario weren't there to clue him in.

I'm just imagining Illario staring in pure dismay and disbelief at his dumbass of a cousin failing to pick up what someone isn't just putting down but scattering all over the floor like glittery confetti burning with a magnesium flame brightness to spell out 'SIR PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE RAIL ME THIS IS AN OFFICIAL ENTHUSIASTIC INVITATION TO MY BED' and having to push him out the door after them like 'maker's breath sometimes i don't understand how you have the wits to grip the right end of a knife, lucanis, they were throwing themselves at you and you just stared at them in mild puzzlement until they gave up and went away go fucking GET THEM for the sake of my sanity if nothing else!!!'

i have this fic series i'm still working on where mihawk sort of becomes rayleigh's kid and spends ages 11-17ish on the oro jackson.

shanks and buggy imprint on him (bugs considers him a sort of older brother figure/sparring inspiration and shanks has a crush that eventually turns into full-blown love) and this is how i imagine they're like on the day mihawk sets off on his own haha.

miquella seems like the kind of person to stand outside radahn's window blasting all too well (10 minute version) on a boombox at like 4am until either ranni sprays him with a hose or malenia drags him away because it's long past his bedtime and he needs his rest if he's going to further his plans for world domination.

One of the things I love about Glass Onion is the way that the camera and music work together to tell nonverbal jokes.

Like when Benoit basically has to hold Miles' hand to get him to the conclusion that someone reset the puzzle box Benoit lies about receiving:

Benoit asks if it's possible that someone reset the box, and Miles then declares that someone must have reset the box like it is this huge reveal - and the camera zooms out while the music subtly swells as though he really has figured out something smart, when actually he literally restated what Benoit just said.

do you ever realise that they ruined diego hargreeves immediately after season 1 because he's the one character who knew from conception that their father was wrong and abusive and they don't need to kill each other just because he said so and that's antithetical to what they frankensteined this beautiful story of post-abuse healing as a family into and need to sit down for a second

thinking about how roger is the one to undo the last knot and let her go in the original scripts.

As someone who has been an avid reader for my whole life, I can tell pretty easily when an author is trying to lead me to a certain conclusion, but as someone who's been marinated in the very essence of poverty, I just cannot ever see some jackass trust fund baby being a rude little spoiled bitch as sexy

Aredhel 95% of her threads: an absolute menace to society ready to bop about playing around

Aredhel in the 5% of drafts that take place in the first age after Eol got her: pain and angst and anger and she's just ....very very fucked up.

today on our monthly episode of my uterus is trying to f*cking kill me: it nearly succeeded

[twicecut]

gosh, diego really truly honestly completely finds his purpose in protecting and taking care of people. i think if he got out of his head and realized he could do it outside of vigilante or police work, he could find something really fulfilling in a much more legal way.

After years of being unhappy as Bond and seriously hurting his body for stunts several times, I'm just so happy to see Daniel Craig having a grand old time playing Benoit Blanc and doing acting jobs that bring him joy

i personally think it would've been really funny if angel blades didn't work on human beings

Soooo at the risk of sounding insensitive… what happened that night when you and knives… made out. Like did you start it or did she start it or?

Good grief... how did you even hear about that? I seriously doubt Knives is talking about it, but yeah, here we go, since that's apparently just. Out there now. Fuck's sake... I'm drinking to cope with thinking about this one, but I'll answer you while I'm still clear headed first.

Honestly? I can barely remember a good chunk of that night. After we got back from the beach and kept drinking, it gets sort of blurry for me? I was already pretty wasted when we got back to house, anyway.

I think I noticed Knives go skulking off by herself upstairs at some point, and I was... concerned. I mean, we'd been letting her drink with us, and I don't know if that was her first time or what, but I didn't want her to be sick all by herself if it was. That shit sucks, and I don't think anyone else was gonna step up to be there for her.

She wasn't sick though anyway, she'd just needed a breather- and apparently some advice. I remember her practically dragging me to the floor so we could sit and talk about one of my least favorite topics- Scott. Well, boys generally at first, but I knew she wanted to be talking about him, so in a very embarrassing move on my part, I decided to talk to her about Scott and I a little.

She seemed to really appreciate it, at least. But then...

Ugh, I seriously feel so disgusting trying to parse through this again...

I don't know who started it. I mean, she was complimenting me before and stuff, so maybe it was her? But I just have this sinking pit in my stomach that it was me. Talking about Scott and our history always messes me up, bad. And having to see him and Ramona suck faces and be all over one another doesn't help in the slightest, obviously. I would've been pent up enough to snap from that alone, I just... I guess until then, I hadn't been concerned about being capable of something like that. Or maybe I just assumed I'd never be caught dead drinking with a seventeen year old, let alone...

*Kim lets out a very long sigh and hangs her head back for a bit, thinking.*

... she said that stupid line, and then it happened. I find it really hard to believe it wasn't me. I'm just glad that's all that happened.

Things have been a little awkward with her since, at least for me. The way we talk sometimes, I don't even know if she remembers it. I mean, I barely do! I probably had a lot more to drink than she did, though. But I like Knives, really- she's fun and she's sweet, and she genuinely cares about our music. If she can behave like nothing happened, I can do the same no problem. I like having someone that isn't a meathead to talk to during practice, so if she's not running, screaming, for the hills, then I'll honor that, no matter how exhausting it may end up...

[woeisthey]

not to be a kpop stan on main, but.. does anyone else think this SHINee key photoshoot for elle korea bears a slight resemblance to millions knives or is it just my severe Brainrot

that's a rhetorical question bc i do think it's my delusion speaking but ANYWAYS !!

So, there's this undertale tsp challenge going on, right? So I've immediately thought about Thierry for some reason (because that rat lives in my mind rent-free /pos). Now, I'm sure you have ideas of your own you mad genius (/pos again muah), but I've immediately thought of a cursed amalgamation between Burgerpants and Mad Dummy
