i think emma's inability to write off people , no matter how badly they fucked her over , really shows in emma keeping the swan keychain neal gave her. &* not just keeping it in a box somewhere, like her baby blanket ; oh no , turning it into a necklace she wears every day.

i love neal , &* yes , as an audience , we know his reasons were for the greater good. neither of them know about the baby. he thought, in his little hero head, that he was putting emma's destiny as the savior of his people ten years from now -- people he gave up 200 years ago ; people including his evil father -- over his love for her. he couldn't forsake everyone just because he loved her. he doesn't value himself highly enough to do what's best for HIM.

but emma doesn't know that. she only knows she loved him &* they were going to run off together &* have a functional, safe, happy life -- have a family &* a loving, stable home that she nor him ever had. they were going to get off the street &* stop stealing to survive. as far as she knows, he ran off with the money &* left her to get arrested. to take the whole fall for it. end of story -- he conned her. just like lily. just like everyone else in her life. she spent 11 months in jail , thinking not only did this guy absolutely betray her, but she had his kid -- &* had to give him up. sure, he leaves her the money he got &* the car, but it's not what she wanted. she wanted him.

BUT SHE KEPT THE KEYCHAIN. (&* the car, yeah. she used the money to get to tallahasse to , what ? TO FIND HIM. ) the keychain neal stole for her , solely because of her chosen last name. it wasn't the moment she picked swan -- she picked that with august when she was like 10. she's not keeping it for the swan name specifically , is what i'm getting at. she kept it because it was from neal. because it was the first gift she ever got from anyone. which makes sense , given her deep dark confession in neverland is that she never stopped loving him, no matter what happened. like it's not the first thing she's ever owned -- she has her baby blanket. but she keeps neal's necklace until she sees him again &* he comments on it &* the only thing she can say about it is like a catty, 'yeah, well, just so i could give this back to you. dick.'

side note - i believe it's canon that she had the chance to turn him in &* she didn't. she could have. but she chose to remain silent &* just take the blame.

Honestly the main thing I've learned from House M.D. is that before you get married, you should really make sure your spouse has the same blood type as you. Just, y'know, in case of emergency.

At first, I was mad at Azi. Like, how could he leave Crowley like that? But the more I think about it, the more convinced I am that Crowley's choice is the selfish one (not WRONG, but definitely selfish). Aziraphale wants to go back to heaven (WITH Crowley, mind you) to make things better, for both of them and literally everyone else. He's willing to give up his cosy little bookshop and this peaceful, fragile existence he's carved out for himself where he can enjoy tea and books and trains and sushi and just generally enjoy his life in order to improve things, both for everyone and for the one he loves most. Crowley (very understandably) does not want to go back to heaven (or hell, for that matter), and so he's making the choice that's best for him, not necessarily for both of them. I'm not sure what the right answer is, or if there even is one at all, but the least they could have done was try to talk it out and come up with something together. Because we all know how great they are at communicating.

So I watched Glass Onion and 1. The hilarity of the timing of this movie is truly something but more importantly 2. It's so GOOD and I am filled with manic energy rn

For many of years I had this tradition of drawing Wirt and the beast once a year to see how much I have improved, then depression hit in 2023 and couldn't continue, but it left so really amazing art in the process

yknow i dont go here but sometimes i gotta go: seriously respect clowns. they have the worst pop culture representation in the world and also the best most thorough honor code. they're just here to be silly little guys who bring joy and are very conscientious about doing so responsibly. let them to their merriment in peace you dont hafta take potshots. i dont go here but like maybe i should, you all seem super chill

headcanon that shen qingqiu (yuan) once yanked his plate away when someone reached for it and yue qingyuan got all teary eyed about it because his xiao jiu still has food insecurities and the memory loss must have made it worse, and he keeps getting shen yuan snacks and treats that he can squirrel away because yue qingyuan knows what it's like to worry about where your next meal comes from, and he's trying to help by ensuring that shen qingqiu is never without

meanwhile shen yuan has never truly been hungry but he did have two older brothers and a younger sister who would shamelessly steal things from his plate when they grew up and the instinct to protect his food has never left him so he WILL bite someone when they reach for his protagonist-made spring rolls

iwtv fandom constantly arguing about who the real bad guy is when shit hits the fan like oh its lestats fault or armands or actually louis is the real villain!! IRRELEVANT. disregard. the reason everything always goes to shit in this show is because unfortunately louis and lestat do match eachothers freak and the resonant harmony of their freakiness sends pure unfiltered wavelengths of suffering to every single characters vampire brainstem and ruins their lives. in this business we call it the invisible chord.
