rewatching the amazing digital circus ep 5 with the intention of seeing more possible clues that Ragatha might abstract next (after hearing her hair glitches when she apologized to Jax (IT DOES)), I noticed her bad npc is the first and only one who dies when Caine starts to dismantle the world

Bazooble is murdered and I don't think that counts. Or I might be reading too much into bad Ragatha melting and it's just a funny joke like the evil witch of oz.

SHE'S GLITCHING‽

On my thousandth rewatch, but-

^the way her hair glitches for a split second is really scaring me

This episode has been rough for ragatha, her constant need to be positive might be the only way she is able to cope with this reality, coupled with how she looked when she realized how well pomni and Jax were getting along, its only about time we see all the feelings she has pushed down bubble up— and hopefully it won't be in the form of an abstraction

(Also the fact that ragatha was glitching in the first episode, her bringing that up during the bar scene, and the lingering shot of the npc, that better not be foreshadowing something 😭)

omg his hand hesitantly reaching for the handle TT-TT

Official storyboard version of that one Jax and Ribbit clip!

Link to the full video, it’s so cool

I understood that it was Jax who wrote these. He's the one who said "don't embarrass my wife >:(

Caine really said “you better respect my gf >:(“

What everyone said during this scene!

Jax: I very much did not enjoy that one in the slightest. If we ever do anything even close to that again, I’m getting violent, and I’m doing to kill Ragatha.

Gangle: Uuhh… I don’t really think it brought out the best in me. Even if it was mostly because of my mask at the time.

Ragatha: Oh, I’d really rather not think back on… uh… what was said at the time. Apparently I said things that I would normally never say

[patheticperipatetic]

Also random when it came to this scene I did not see it as ragatha being controlling or trying to get Pomni to stop at all like:

Maybe I love women excessively [impossible] but this gave.

[tldr: ragatha, in trying to figure out how to act in this new situation realises the person she's trying to befriend is closing themself off to her on a single look. + prefers/laughs with the person she's been actively nicer to counteract than her. Ouch. ] much more under the cut -

Pt1 - pt ??

First pic: Jax is ... eating that guy. confusion. what is going on. Then she hears the laughter.

2nd and 3rd: Pomni was put off by Ragatha's look and thought she shld stop

4th: Big sad, Ragatha realises that Pomni feels she cannot laugh or be properly around her, feeling she herself is offputting. Plus realising that Pomni laughs more with/to Jax that with her. That... hurts. The double whammy hurts.

[note, extra messed up because ragatha wasn't even frowning or creasing her eyebrows in the first scene she was just confused and looked to pomni once she heard the laughter? And pomni stopped laughing and looked away after a regular look of confusion? Damn u aren't comfortable around me so much u have to stop laughing and smiling when i just look at u? damn. Ouch Owie Ouch Ouch]

Imo this scene read like, ragatha was experiencing new crazy shit and did not know how to process it. How would YOU act if the guy you've been living with started eating people on live TV. In trying to gauge how other people were reacting and how she should act in turn, she also realises that people find her .. somewhat authoritative and the person she's been trying to be friends with is visibly stopping her laughs and looseness just by her looking at her, that sucks. It really does. [plus it's jax thing i mentioned up top, trying to be friends with 2 people in different ways and they both prefer each other and not u, i wld also wanna kms]

But yeah on the sociology + psychology student side, reading her character + what she has said in show (and a little personal experience). Yes this, is giving neurodivergence. Not understanding how to react to new situations due to a sheltered life, and lack of learning in depth social cues due not being taught that in comparison to her mother's view of 'perfection', and looking to others for how to act. Quiet curiosity and confusion being taken negatively, and visibly seeing people shrink away from you really just. sucks.

Further helped by the ending seen of her being left alone while everyone leaves in groups. In her attempts to match her perceived 'perfection' and need to be motherly adn useful to the gang, she has hidden her personal self away and has not been able to make true connections. She has tried. [ough for later but this really helps on how i need to go in DEPTH on why her circus form is a RAG DOLL oughh]

pt 2 coming

(TADC EPISODE 5 SPOILERS) ive seen people add different songs to the intermission scene and i spent 3 hours trying to find the right song - Super Graphic Ultra Modern Girl by Chappell Roan! that's it for today

It's this frame that kills me

I can't put it into words.

AAAAAAAAAGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHH 💔💔💔💀💀💀

[patheticperipatetic]

Sip it in. Even Goose acknowledges Jax is a awful person and that half the fandom has an unhealthy fixation on him.

Finally! Ragatha is vindicted by the creator herself.

VICTORY SCREEEEEEEECH!
