#this clip specifically is about

[kinogane]

I don’t consider myself even Gundam-adjacent but in light of recent developments, this Austin Walker clip from Giant Bomb’s PAX East 2019 panel has been bouncing around in my head, so

Saw a funny text post and then my hand slipped. For several hours.

Volo is about to be so so silly <3

I would ask why he said this but honest to God I stopped asking why schlatt says anything several years ago

Finished it!

finally settled on a Silena design \o/ survived/revived!AU here just cause I wanted to give her a cute eyepatch and try drawing her scars. I've struggled with how to dress her for ages and what headcanons I wanna do for her but then I realized I can give her a saree and all my problems are solved <3

I imagine in a survived/revived au she's mostly blind in both eyes, it's just one requires more protection than the other ergo the eyepatch. Also it means her and Ethan match.

working in a factory has you thinking so much about the insane chain of labor & transport that goes into making literally anything

i like to think this happened after ian confronted mickey, resulting in him agreeing to give west side a shot.

mickey feels anxious still, doesn’t sleep well and the moon is too fucking bright but this time ian is comforting and holding onto him. ‘cause ian knows they both need to feel one another in any way to relax— they’re in this together and can rely on each other.

i also like this little details of ian nervously moving his fingers when mickey keeps lying to ian about liking the place, sleeping nicely there etc. it means ian’s mind is working overtime so quickly trying to figure out how to fix things and fidgeting comes instinctively when overthinking etc.

which is also why ian tried to make mickey happy by telling him they can hit the gym together (as mickey started going to kev’s in previous episodes) or going to the pool mickey wanted to try so bad! but nothing worked as mickey refused to do any of that, so ian makes sure mickey won’t run away again trying to hint it being subtle ( which mickey catches on quickly with ‘i’m not going anywhere’ ) and then ian kisses him (psychical touch once again as a way to comfort one another) and reminds him he’s happy they’re trying to have a better life.

"rhaenys could have ended the war by dracarysing all the greens right there" yes because a distant relation to the throne deciding to barbecue an anointed and publicly positively hailed king and his entire family who is well loved within the city and in multiple other parts of the country for the sake of the succession of a far-away princess no one was ever on board with who hasn't been seen by the populace in literal years, her psycho husband, her three obvious bastards, and two toddlers from the psycho husband would go over super well with westeros and especially in king's landing where scores of the still-cheering population were killed for no reason by that same dragon who would do the barbecuing, because when targaryens act unilaterally without thinking of how the people would react there's never any problem, which is why the storming of the dragonpit and robert's rebellion were actually just collective delusions dreamed up by readers who hate rhaenyra and not key parts of the story and house targaryen's history that directly contributed to their demise and are intrinsic to the plot

hey guys look what i found in my drafts. from a few days ago .

[skitskatdacat63]

Kinda 😾 rn cause I realized the Senna show made the "can we be equal? 👉👈" scene SOOOO much less intimate/cute. Upon watching it, I was too distracted by "Oh! They're referencing dialog that actually happened!!" but now I'm peeved having rewatched the actual clip 😭

Why would they do this to me specifically

[royalarchivist]

Foolish: It looked like perfect English, I just didn't understand what was said [Laughs].

[Intense ominous music suddenly starts playing, startling Cellbit]

Cellbit: What is that?

Foolish: ...What? That isn't you?

Cellbit: Do you hear that?

Foolish: That- THAT'S NOT YOU???

Cellbit: No! Wtf is this?!

Foolish: What- wtf- that's not me! Is there like a final boss approaching???

Cellbit: WHAT IS GOING ON?!

[ Transcript continued ↓ ]

Foolish: I don't know! I- I- swear like, I don't think- I don't think anyone else has been near here! Uh... Richarlyson, maybe put your armor on?

Cellbit: Yeah, please! Richarlyson- [repeats himself in Portuguese, telling Richarlyson to put his armor on]

Foolish: I don't know- this is so cool! This is just the vibe we were looking for!

Cellbit: Yeah, but what-

Foolish: It's haunted now! >:D

Cellbit: ...Where is this coming from?

Foolish: I don't know! Is it- so is it like, one of those mobs that have like, a backpack maybe? But I feel like I've never heard this sound before. Or like a mob with like, a-

Cellbit: It's like- it's like a final boss music, wtf is going on???

literally nobody asked for it, but here's my list of saltburn essays that i've slowly been drafting over the course of the last week which WILL be required reading for anybody trying to engage with me about this movie. my very personal saltburn 101 syllabus just dropped

A Wolf in Deer's Clothing: Saltburn's Attempt at Innocence

an examination of party costumes and our character's last attempts to masquerade as something they're not: felix—an angel, all-forgiving and all-knowing, something to be worshiped; and oliver—a prey animal, prey to class-divide, prey to saltburn, prey to felix.

thoughts about oliver specifically are loosely organized in my #bambi tag

A Midsummer Night's Mare: Farleigh Start as the Ultimate Victim of Saltburn

a farleigh character study, about the ways he was mistreated and manipulated at saltburn, about fighting to stay alive and the scars left behind by knowing when to give in

alternatively titled "QuickStart", may be adapted into a conclusive essay specifically focusing on oliver and farleigh's relationship

The Eye of the Beholder: On Saltburn's Voyeurism & Violence [working title]

how wealth and class pushes the catton's toward the volatile reality of being able to look, but not touch. on desire and the lack thereof, and portraying yourself as an object to be desired

may end up as two separate essays on wealth and aestheticism but i'm pushing toward a conclusive essay about the intersection of the two, which i feel is at the heart of saltburn

alternatively titled "Poor Man's Pudding: A Melvillian Approach to Saltburn's Class", again, may be adapted into it's own essay

Gender-Fluid: A Study in Sexuality and Saltburn's Desire to be Dry

a deep dive into the bodily fluids of saltburn and how oliver upsets the standard of men who are just so lovely and dry. on the creative choice to lean into the messy wetness of sex and desire and the audience's instinct toward repulsion

a celebration of the grotesque and an examination of why we would label it as such

least developed of the four, heavily inspired by @charnelpit's lovely post about the fluids in saltburn

if anybody is actually interested in any of these, i can work toward something closer to a finished piece instead of just bullet points and quotes in a google doc, but mostly this is so i can share my very brief takes on a multitude of themes in saltburn that have been haunting me

edit for people seeing this in the future: all posts about my essays are being organized into my #saltburn 101 tag if you’re interested in following these through to development!

Happy pride month to every single time Tubbo aggressively called Fit gay in a way a straight person definitely couldn't get away with and Fit laughed so hard in response just completely flabbergasted
