[snailfen]

SO THAT EPISODE HUH... i want to know your thoughts on it... i just finished it and like?!@???@

I WAS SO WORRIED FOR CABBY AT ELIMINATION ik people hate her (which is..... hmm 🤨) BUT SHES THE ONLY FEMALE CHARACTER LEFT IN THE SHOW. it would suck to not see her get far!!! also i like how they cleared up her thing with the files, i do have to agree that the message last episode was sending was cause for concern! also she's so awkward i love her sm .... ruh-ruh-ruh-remiiiix!!!

didnt really see blueberry getting in at all, was kinda hoping for tea kettle to rejoin so i was a bit disappointed, but for what its worth i do have to give it to him! that was clever!!! slayed

its sad to see yinyang go, but great to see their arc end the way it did <:).

CLOVER JUMPSCARE WAS FUNNY but also AAAAAAAAAAGGHHHHHHHHHHG (starts shaking you) AAAAAAAUGHHGGGGGHHHHHGGG!!!!!!!!!!!! NICKELLLLL YOU FUCKED UP!!!!!!!! FACE THE MUSIC BUDDY!!!!!!!!! also that scene made me realize that nickels "agency" issue extended to his luck and that fucked me up SO bad im CRAZY IM CRAZY IM CRAZY. YOU HAVE NO IDEA. YOU HAVE NO IDEA !!!!!!!!!!! im insane

mephones bot favoritism <3 i love that he has a soft spot for them <:) augh imagine how he feels seeing that bot is happy and has a safe, accepting environment with creators (COUGH COUGH parents COUGH HACK) that genuinely care about them as a person. fucked up fr

[emetkoto]

tell us more about the sun/moon parallels :3 btw aren't the moon and the sun described as "lovers chasing each other around the world"? who rarely meet, almost always missing one another?

(vibrating) well the big most obvious one is the whole "k'oto is a shard of azem whos whole theme is the sun/he is a sun seeker miqo'te and emet-selch is an ascian who worships zodiark who is quite literally inside the moon" thing but their like color schemes also scream it to me but i may just be insane! like emet's blacks and dark reds and golds vs k'otos lighter greys and purples and silvers..PERSONALITIES TOO i cant put it into words my brain refuses to give them to me unscrambled but its accurate to say k'oto is a very warm person and emet is very much. not that!

YEAH YEAHEYAHEAYEHAYEAH THAT TOO ALSO DRIVES ME MAD the sun and moon being written as lovers who are desperate to be together but are kept apart by circumstances outside of their control but who continue to show affection in anyway they can even if they can never truly meet and be together...SICKENING!!! idk if youre one of the anons who doesnt know the game lore but there's actually some in-game mythos about this in the azim steppe (the azem/azim thing is NOT a coincidence btw) that just reads SO different to me these days bc of them...let me try and find some of my screenshots of it from my k'oto replay

tldr; AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
