Ok, so here we are. I'm gonna get it out of the way right away: When the World Tips Over is absolutely worth the wait. I must admit it's kind of overwhelming at the beginning, or maybe the right word is 'daunting'; there's just so many characters, plot threads, styles and formats. But still, once everything is in place, the book grips your soul and basically never lets go. Seeing all the pieces fall into place is a truly powerful experience. And really, Jandy Nelson's prose is masterful. You can tell how much work has gone into making this novel the best version of itself. There's a word in English which I really love, and it's the most appropriate way to describe Nelson: she's a wordsmith, period. What she does with her writing in this book is just masterful. Even the little things I wasn't feeling at first, like the instalove beginnings for some of the romantic plots, ended up winning me over. So yeah, I can tell these characters and their family saga will stay with me for a long, long time. Look, I hope we don't have to wait another decade for her next work, but if it's gonna be as brilliant as this and I'll Give You the Sun, I'm more than willing to wait.

Such an interesting scene.

Helena approached him, I think by her own accord, and attempted to start an acquaintance with him, but she wasn't expecting them to have chemistry.

I think that she is as much surprised as us when their banter turned flirtatious.

She kept bringing up the OTC because she doesn't have anything to say otherwise.

She brought up his dead wife and intentionally uttered the wrong name in a provoking, jealous girlfriend way.

Then she rose with him, stared at his mouth, at his face, and looked at him almost desperately, hoping for him to have some sort of recognition (which he did) and looked deflated and forlorn at his departing form.

And to make it clear. Mark was not mad or disgusted. He was SPOOKED when he felt SOMETHING towards Helena Eagan, Lumon heiress, possibly someone who instigated (or at least knew about) the kidnapping of his wife's body. He didn't know what it was, but he knew it was pleasant, it made him smile, and it was strong. THAT terrified him into instantly agreeing to speed up the reintegration.

When your stupid heart decided to fall in love with your best friend from literally another dimension, but you know you can never be with him and the emotional turmoil is tearing you apart like a collapsing neutron star.

(Short and angsty comic of my personal AU about parallel Fiddleford and Stanford. Poor Fidds has fallen way too deep for Ford and can't get up.)

One of my favorite, more ridiculous headcanons I have yet to draw, is that because things are more serious/high stakes in UF, the brothers don't do their cartoonish antics thing so much. So whenever things start getting better once they've surfaced, and they start acting more like their true selves, it comes as a startling shock to the others when they sporadically, unacknowledgingly break the laws of time, space, physics, what have you, all for a bit

goddd. the sheer resignation. bc as soon as nolan says those words mark knows his dad's got him. he's trapped here. there's no way in hell he can just leave this planet to die. so he doesn't say no, he just lashes out with any scraps of petty rage he's got left against the unfairness of it all

there's something sort of sickening about 'i think you sound lonely' and the fact that lisa knows it genuinely could not be more true. i imagine her pushing herself to go back to work so quickly after becky's death developed a vicious cycle that pushed her further and further into loneliness. like becky dies, and she's on her own. part of her is saying oh god, it should have been me, and she wants to drown it out, so she goes back to work. work, with all these people who start to look down on her for living like nothing has changed after her very beloved wife was killed on the job she is doing (!!) now (!!), and she sees that, because she's good at reading people. she knows when people are being inauthentic and the way people talk to her when they're lying. so she distances herself more, past what's natural of the grief, and people distance themselves from her even more (they were only friends with her for becky in the first place anyway!) in return. she works even more to cope. then suddenly she has no time to herself, no time to form new relationships or put care into the few she has left. but that's good, actually, because then she doesn't have time to think about it. she doesn't have time to think about the fact her wife is dead, or the guilt of how badly she handled it, or to evaluate that little voice in the back of her mind telling her that everyone agrees they'd be better off if she'd been the one who had died instead. she tells herself that enough without hearing it from them, too. do you think that part of her resents becky for the fact that she's the one who was killed? do you think that also heightens the guilt? do you think it adds to the cycle? (do you think carla can break it?) (yes)

it is pretty late and i had the most exhausting day so i may be totally overanalysing BUT

Holmes' "you never heard me talk about Victor Trevor?" as a statement of how important both of them were/are to him? A disguised "taken how often Victor comes to my mind, how come I never mentioned him" and "I want you to know what made me into what I am now. I want you to see me as I was before I became the man you know", and I think it's beautiful
