Umm hiiii!!! I love yr art but I have question abt yr lmk coralline au.. do u have mac???

tysm!! mac's role is pretty small, being the previous owner of the house & the Mentor figure for Bai He. After she got taken by the Beldam, I imagine him being a distant recluse from the rest of the city u_u.

although, originally i did toy around making him the Strange Cat lmao

"i'm not gonna say anything. i'm just gonna walk into her office and i'm gonna kiss her"

now why tf did house look down at his desk and start stammering and blushing after wilson said that 🤨 "cuddy likes bold" but he does too ??? arguably more than her ???

wait no pause. actually. that entire conversation he's soooooo hyperfocused on what wilson would do. almost as if he's envisioning himself in cuddy's shoes. he also like. keeps looking at the table, looking at wilson, looking at the table, looking at wilson with an expression that's expectant. he thinks wilson will connect the dots. holy shit.

he wants wilson to connect the dots. but he can't...he can't admit it to himself. so he role plays as cuddy. he hides behind this made-up, fabricated version of reality where wilson's got a crush on cuddy. it's perfect because the only other likely person wilson would go see that play with is cuddy.

after the play, house asks for the dirty details yet 1) gets frustrated at wilson for not sticking to house's own script of Going On A Date To A Play = Sex. and then 2) gets jealous at the thought of wilson having sex after the play with the real cuddy instead of him.

there's mixed, complex feelings written all over the wall here. on one hand, house wants wilson to fall into bed with cuddy because that means that by extension from fabricating this entire thing, wilson is actually falling into bed with house who is merely role-playing as cuddy. fantasy gaga. "i'll miss you. you were a good friend." = the nature of our relationship has changed.

HOWEVER on the other hand, house can't stand the thought of wilson falling into bed with cuddy because it'd be Too Real, Too Literal. it'd be wilson having real sex with the real cuddy and — because this is wilson here — it'd be wilson having a real romantic relationship with the real cuddy. notably not with house. it'd completely fuck the fantasy up.

but house is too far gone and also likes to fuck around and find out. he knows wilson's a hopeless romantic, so he sends wilson flowers in cuddy's name. wilson interprets this as cuddy being sexually interested, which pleases house because he is sexually interested in his boy best friend.

house is overly invested in hearing what wilson's plan is to ask cuddy out after wilson says he doesn't know what "being straight" is. they're on two different wavelengths where house thinks wilson's read between the lines to figure out it was house, not cuddy, this whole time. ergo to him, wilson's "i don't know what that [being straight] is" = i'm interested in you too and i recognize that cuddy is a metaphor; i'm now knowingly playing into it.

meanwhile wilson is literally talking about the real cuddy.

house becomes clearly aroused flustered at the thought of wilson barging into cuddy's office to wordlessly kiss her. house enjoys the way wilson approaches sex & romance differently than him. i think a part of him wants a grand romantic gesture like what wilson described. "i can't stop thinking about her" / "maybe she's right. maybe...maybe this is worth exploring."

and the funny thing is, is that the office wilson does barge right into is house's office.

"you sent those flowers to me!" "yes, because you took her to a play. because actually you do want to march down there and kiss her." "no! i don't!" "yes, you do."

it's just a prank, right? it's just a retaliation, right? calling it a prank or retaliation is a rationalization to deny away how house's attraction is boiling over. he wants to explore things with wilson, wants to get rid of the "good friend" label, but he's way! too! repressed! at least to initiate it outright. so he concocts this convoluted thing just to get wilson to make the first move because, historically, wilson holds the reins in their relationship. they also, historically, work their boundaries out through pranks. why should this situation be any different?

and wilson has this look of slow, frustrated realization before he says, "you're right" because he knows house. wilson is now in on the metaphor, so he admits that he does want to kiss metaphor cuddy.

but when house's face falls, "seriously?" wilson goes right back into The Status Quo "no" because as soon as the metaphor became Too Real, Too Literal, it shook house out of it thanks to his jealousy. that, and maybe wilson — Dr. Comphet himself — got cold feet, too.

they're ships in the night. when one of them is in on the metaphor, the other isn't. house knows how to woo wilson, wilson knows how to woo house. and yet they can't!!! ever!!!! admit it at the same time!!!! house pulls on a push door; wilson pushes on a pull door; the door doesn't open

To be honest, after going over it in my head a bit, MeMe and Tear Drop feel like themeatic foils. Both songs involve Mikoto and Yuno expressing their dislike of being judged the way they are, with Mikoto expressing frustration over being seen as a murderer and Yuno over being seen as naïve.

Honestly these two lines even seem to like... continue one another.

[beefosaur]

was forcing my dad to listen to malevolent today and he noticed you can hear perception checks being made in episode 3.

do we know what this is about yet??? am i missing something? because i literally never noticed this before.

[sleepypuddding]

talking about hlage lore is so embarrassing because i have to seriously discuss the narrative mystery and story behind Peppa Pig

[sunforgrace]

it’s the fact that in season 15 they emphasized “being trapped in the hamster wheel” as a part of dean’s character arc specifically and then. they gave him hamster death and had him run around the wheel for forty years until sam could keel over and join the enclosure

i wanna hear more abt the mr keating grooming implications !!

omggg it makes me happy when ppl wanna hear my insane thoughts ty anon 💞

in all honesty it was my first time watching dps and i plan on revisiting it again (also maybe making a video about my favorite parts of the ttpd+dps experience) to get more of my thoughts in order.

but in all honesty it just reads as a grooming allegory — the idea that mr keating was the one who “pushed” niel into suicide, adults pointing fingers at him (except the teen members who knew the truth), his encouragement of neil’s acting dreams.

i mean if we look at it broadly with acting as a metaphor for queerness, then mr keating pushes neil to become an actor in a way because he himself is an actor — he’s a teacher and a poet , yes, but i feel there’s a sense of acting in poetry itself, and i mean he IS played by robin williams who is very well known for his acting ability. the way robin plays keating is subdued compared to other roles, but there’s still a Sense of a man who puts on a performance in his normal day to day life.

neil is able to relate to mr keating and confides in him about his problems (which is like a typical trope in these sorts of stories) like one would a typical father figure (ALSO typical in grooming stories). he encourages neil when his own father does not. his time in the dps leads neil to create his own dps. keating giving neil the dps book (i believe this was the implication, again im iffy bc it was my first time watching). like there’s just a Lot of subtext here when you get into it.

sorry this isnt much of an analysis but as time goes on and the brainrot gets worse i promise i will talk about it more 🫡❤️‍🩹

[saltlickmp3]

hi!! so my local film archive/cinema is showing the lair of the white worm in about 2 weeks within a program of folk horror in the uk & ireland & i know you go crazy for it but!! do you recommend it?

hi hi!!! first of all THATS SO COOLLLL AUGHHHHHHHHHHH thats so awesome........ the second thing is. while i do really enjoy the lair of the white worm. there are a lot of scenes that are pretty graphic & uncomfortable & i really really do reccomend checking trigger warnings Especially if you would be seeing with anyone else. its really not the kind of movie to watch with your parents. like yes it is enjoyable but there are a lot of bits that Are very icky so yeah. mostly sexual themes so thats mostly where the discretion is. BUT other than that its a very silly fun folk horror film with lots of goofy bits (intentional or not) so yeah :)

[jessiesjaded]

just finished tteotm moodboard

[sunforgrace]

when dean put carry on wayward son on the mini jukebox player on the table and kept looking at the door as people entered and cas came in and sat down and then sam walked in and jack was struggling to parallel park and ran inside the diner and dean looked up at the jingle of the doorbell just in time for one last “carry on” and then a cut to black

[bigrawrenergy]

A playlist that has themes of having no sense of self, general inhumainty and the desire to be something greater than the sniveling snarling beast inside your brain that tears itself apart to atone for being born wrong

[michealisarealname]

Gertrude Robinson betrayed me, which is how I was created, and honestly, kinda congrats to her for doing the deception, she decived and lied, and he trusted her, and became me

So two things, I was created by betrayal, which makes me the most spirally spiral to ever spiral, and a better avatar themeatically then all of them

And two, Gertrude is no better then me
