im so normal about vera. anyways heres working for the knife lyric analysis (TY MIKA)

---

I cry at the start of every movie - she's a passionate/emotional person (not the biggest reason for it, but it's related, and does tie into the main reason).

I guess 'cause I wish I was making things too - she wishes she could make permanent or big things, like pursuing art as a career. she also just wants to be childish and carefree, bc she never truly got a chance in the index. she was kidlike and happy, but never really a child.

But I'm working for the knife - the timeloop prevents from this, and so does the nature of l corp. everyone ie exposed to terrifying horrors, people die, people become jaded. she was just naive with her hopes.

I used to think I would tell stories - she did storytell as a hobby in the index <:)

But nobody cared for the stories I had about

No good guys - everyone has changed. none of c127 were really good people. and at the same time, noone cares for happy stories. noone cares for fairytales and only happiness. just kids would.

I always knew the world moves on - people change, grow, etc.

I just didn't know it would go without me - everyone in c127 changed drastically. she wanted everyone to stay together, be friends, be happy. everyone became unhappy and cold and cynical. she's the only one left behind. the only one wanting to go back (this is probably a lie honestly. even she turned cynical, just only on the inside).

I start the day high and it ends so low - she begins in her magical girl persona and ends as her true self - how she really feels beneath the blinding positivity.

'Cause I'm working for the knife - because of l corp's nature and the timeloop. really, because of self-hatred.

I used to think I'd be done by twenty

Now at twenty-nine, the road ahead appears the same - guess what? its the timeloop baby. she's repeating things over and over to try and find her happy ending.

Though maybe at thirty, I'll see a way to change - but maybe it'll change, even slightly. maybe she'll have an epiphany. maybe she'll change herself in the way she needs to to fix this. she cant just go back, after all!

That I'm living for the knife - she's bound by the timeloops. she binds herself to it of her own will because she cares so much. she's living for this. this is all her life is anymore - lobotomy corp. is all she has. if she left, she'd just have the index... and she can't be wrong after all this time!

I always thought the choice was mine

And I was right, but I just chose wrong - a part of her says it was wrong to care. she should've known her hopes were just naive fantasies. leaving the index was a stupid decision. she's just been wrong the whole time! like a kid!

I start the day lying and end with the truth - she starts with the happy magical girl persona, the childlike naivety, and ends with her hopelessness and anger. it's unfair - both in the way of a kid's yelling and a parent's teaching. life just isn't fair! yep. life's not fair, kid.

That I'm dying for the knife - the timeloop has killed her thousands of times and she will die a thousand more times. she is living and dying for this. she's dying literally, but also in the sense of like. eagerness. she wants this. because one day it has to work out. one day things have to change. one day she'll be right and it all will have been worth it. she lives exactly by the loops' rules, returning to it night and day like a lover.

in honor of ms gibbous "gibby" moon, here are the three photos that i feel best represent her personality. we found her as a baby in the park and took her home in a pringles can, she had a lightning bolt marking on her forehead that was indicative of the staggering volumes of affection & zest she contained which far surpassed her physical size, she loved rice and burying her head in my elbow to be strummed like a banjo, and she lived her life as one long trust fall motion blur.

Finished season one of the Apothecary Diaries! I think it's safe to say I loved it. I really love Maomao's character and how her perception of things actually colors almost the entire story. She did such a good job demonizing Lakan that when we shifted to his POV, I was genuinely stunned by the twist (and I cried a little I'll admit.) And when we shift back to her POV, her views on her parents haven't changed, something I really appreciate. It really made the series stand out for me, I like that she is allowed to exist in her story, very flawed but also extremely loveable (to me at least lol)

Anyways...I'll probably watch Season 2 sooner rather than later, which is saying something since I tend to treat TV shows like some people do books and just never continue after a certain point lol

That one scene in DP where Paul doesn't remember Dawn's name was even funnier when I realized Paul doesn't call Ash by name even once. In fact, the only name I noticed him say at all was his brother's (and pokemon technically). Paul is simply above names. He will not remember you.

To show my love for my favorite little dude I am going to put her through the wringer. With love of course. Hehe another long one sorry not sorry :).

So for the angst ask a while ago, leopard seals aren’t mean per se, they just do what they have to to survive. I will describe at the very end how they hunt penguins bc it’s preeeeety brutal tbh. Not out of cruelty but I’ll get there.

After she was born I imagine Haruka’s parents did a lot of research into leopard seals once they figured out that’s part of what she was. And they do get a pretty bad rep. They probably didn’t know what to think. They didn’t have the luxury of knowing literally anything about how she was going to act as she got older and I don’t figure there was a lot of information about raising selkies just floating about on the internet. So they probably took some…precautions, because as horrible as it is to think, their daughter was part vicious carnivore. Who’s to say she wouldn’t turn on them? So they bought things like restraints, a muzzle, anything they could think of that would avoid harming her while keeping themselves from getting hurt too.

And how she acts in canon as a child prob didn’t help their beliefs. Girlie just did not smile as a kid until that one day in the mall. But she wasn’t violent, she was just a little kid who couldn’t really express emotions, so those items never had to be used. So they were shoved in a box and packed away into the attic never to see the light of day.

Until one day Haruka is looking for something up there and stumbles upon a dusty box that clearly hasn’t been touched in years and decides to take a peek. She’s rightfully surprised. Restraints of all kinds are shoved into the box. The first thought is ewww oh my god I did NOT need to see this mom and dad, but upon closer inspection the stuff in the box is small, concerningly so. And is that a muzzle?

And then it clicks.

Even her parents, her first and biggest supporters in the world, were afraid of her. Maybe not now, but they were at one point. They were scared enough that they were fully prepared for the possibility that they would have to physically restrain and muzzle their own child, their own baby, to keep themselves safe. How far would they be willing to go to do so?

Another side note I’d like to think that while initially stated as a gag, Haruka feels incredibly torn about her feelings about penguins. “Do I like them because it’s a part of my personality, or do I like them because of my genetics, and the desire to rip and tear and eat them?” How much of her is actually her and how much is the animal?

Aaaaanyways leopard seals will hunt penguins by waiting just under the ice floats that the penguins chill on and snatch them as they enter the water. The seals will then surface with the penguins in their mouths and throw their heads back and forth, slapping the penguins against the surface of the water over and over until essentially the skin is separated from the yummy bits that they eat. So like… it’s brutal, but it’s not done out of cruelty. Just like any other predator, they kill their prey to survive

Whew that was a long one. Thanks for your time :) -bed

"We're close yeah. Especially with our songwriting thing. I really love writing-I love writing with all the guys, they have different muses that you engage with, and we all write a specific kind of song together but...Luke and I have a special relationship with our songwriting stuff. It's kinda like we don't allow anything to touch it. Like even if him and I had a disagreement or something, we'd still write a song together the next hour cause it's compartmentalized in a space that's safe. And just creative and respectful."

PLEASE elaborate on the phoenix and franziska shenanigans during the 7yg you have NO idea how much i like them

I am someone who loved the investigative portion of Bridge to the Turnabout where Franziska had to babysit Phoenix when he wasn't allowed to follow Miles and Iris. I think when he's not her rival defense attorney and is looking particularly pathetic, she is actually pretty chill around him. She is not exempt from his aura that gets young women to imprint on him and follow him around.

She is genuinely offended on his behalf when he gets disbarred because he beat Miles and Manfred and even her! why the hell would he cheat in a case against a teenager! She does not think for a second that he forged that diary page because she knows firsthand how he throws himself into things and cannot prepare an entire evil plan for shit. However, she does not know how to convey this to him so she bullies Miles into flying him and Trucy around because Miles is almost too good at being resigned to pine sadly from a distance.

It's also important to know that she sees Phoenix being a caring father to Trucy and as someone who never really had a valid father, decided that maybe (ex) defense attorneys have rights... Even if Miles didn't get his shit together to put a ring on That Man's finger, Franziska would find herself in Phoenix's found family, it's only a matter of time.

For some reason Phoenix doesn't go to court with Edgeworth, maybe he can't stand being there while not being a lawyer, maybe he forgot he wasn't an attorney once and got kicked out for yelling out an objection, it doesn't matter, Trucy gets to be Edgeworths weirdgirl assistant and Phoenix is stuck investigating with Franziska and they are the worst people to keep each other out of trouble. We're talking about 'guy who ran across a burning bridge' and 'woman who got shot in the shoulder and still managed to get to court eventually' they are an unstoppable duo when they find something they can both get behind.

If anyone can slowly get Franziska to loosen up and learn to embrace the childhood that she lost, it would be Phoenix. I mean, this girl passed the bar at like 13 there was no way she had time to binge she-ra and check out books on drawing horses from the library. He would convince her to get a cat who hangs out in a window backpack that she can carry around during her travels because it turns out that her life is kinda lonely and she totally seems like the cat lesbian type. She is also allergic to cats so she has to get a sphinx or a devon rex or just the most gargoyle/ golbin looking creature to walk on this earth. That just seems like her vibe.
