#that wouldve been so good

i think the problem with the pacing is that the flashbacks take up so much time (specifically the two minisodes) when it just feels like the present is so much more pressing. and by the end of both the minisodes' plots i was like wait whats going on in the present.... why was i even annoyed we were getting pulled away from it... and the minisodes werent even that good. i couldnt see the point of spending so much time on them, other than establishing character traits for aziraphale & crowley that i already knew to be true. in my heart. and then when it WAS focusing on the present, it was always too slow or too hard to keep track of as it was happening or both, which is just a double whammy of Annoying Storytelling

I think it's fun to see how some ppl will view chasing tails as being sympathetic towards seongbin but if I'm being quite honest I don't see it. if that was even bashis intention it just ended up being so shallow, like it's has the level of depth and care of a person watching someone fall on the street and get hurt, commenting to someone "oh my gosh look at that how awful :(" and not doing absolutely anything to help. like "look at that isn't that sad an awful and tragic?" but not truly exploring the roots and the effects of it and what can be done. it's deterministic and essentialist, teasing "what if" scenarios that just sound insincere given everything else the story has told so far.

"look at that isn't that sad? :("

"yeah well is there anything we can do about it"

"uhhh... idk that's so sad though..??" (don't dive into it just agree and say it's sad and move on)

I don't mean that chasing tails needs to play the role of an entertaining mental health brochure. but to claim to have researched a topic you say you were already interested in and ignoring the many facts about the reality of mentally ill people just comes off as disingenuous. or ignorant, purposefully so or not.

it's just bad. the way it shits on mentally ill people for the whole series to just then throw a "awhh isn't it sad that it ended like that? could it have been different?", when in the afterword itself they kinda confim it wouldn't have been different , after all, seongbin is mentally ill what else could've happened??? I can't even say it's performative bc it feels like it's not even trying to hide the pure ableism within itself. or maybe bashi doesn't even realize just how ableist they're being. I really truly can't tell.

i need to stop being reminded that the seven are canonically very awkward around each other and hardly talk at all.

let me live in my sunshine rainbow world where they're all friends, are each other's 'found family,' where hazel, piper, and annabeth are best friends, where leo, jason, frank, and percy are like brothers, where jason and piper never existed, where hazel and piper were actually friends (that they should've been), and leo and percy are the most sarcastic and funny people you've ever met (and they make each other even funnier)!!!!!

god the contrast between the 400 previous chapters to the last few ones lmfaoo it would've looked ooc if it was a fanfic 😭😭 for all the times he acted all irritated with izuku after dvk2 we found out that he actually LOVED IT. loved that shit. loved that izuku kept his eyes on him, how he paid attention, how he challenged him, how he could challenge him back, how he knows that izuku wants his attention as well. he would've been fine with this continuing forever.

logan on that plane when the divorcees started arguing had to have been AT LEAST one of his top 20 worst moments in life if not at least one of the most awkward like imagine not liking flying in the first place and then the plane starts being crumpled like tin foil once the metallokinetic gets frustrated and now we're all nosediving towards the middle of the ocean

showing off the commission i got from @ruporas for my fic, In the Next Life!

i'm still so incredibly excited about this. it's been some months since the story event that caused these scars, but i wanted SO BADLY to be able to see what they'd actually Look like... & Here They Are.

ruporas rendered the scars So Well, i just cant stop Looking at them... there's a Fresh & a Healed version, which ruporas was kind enough to give me without additional charge (Thank U Again😭😭) so i get to see what it looks like at different stages.

Lichtenberg Figures. in terms of actual scarring, lightning strikes that people survive don't tend to leave permanent scars, but the lichtenberg figures that they (usually temporarily) leave behind are just So Cool... Now, what happens when you get someone who can survive an amount of electricity/lightning that would be Frankly Lethal to any normal human person?

This :]
