182 Days of TPN - Day 26

Chapter 26: “I Want to Live”

Believe me, I did hate Isabella once upon a time because of her causing such serious harm to our best girl, but nowadays I can’t help but be a bit amazed that she had the strength (& skill??) to break Emma’s leg so perfectly that it heals up right before the escape. Take about excellent timing.

Seeing Lani, Thoma, Anna & Nat react this way about Emma’s leg because they’re already informed of the house’s secret since the night Krone spoke with NE is just so good. Aahhh, it’s little moments like this that make revisiting this series so worth it.

I’m constantly flipping between fear and praise for Isabella in regards to everything she’s accomplished in one day. From eliminating Krone and clearing out her room in mere minutes, to breaking the strong six year deal with her son, then sprinting across the entire plantation to reach NE before their wall investigation even began, effortlessly snapping Emma’s leg which in turn delays any other attempt of an early escape and finally revealed the news of Norman’s shipment that sends the group of five into a panic.. all of that Isabella accomplishes in just a couple hours and not once did she encounter any sort of problem. She is such a chess-master. The way her mind works is impressively frightening. 

This panel is totally heartbreaking for sure and only comes up in Emma’s imagination, but why couldn’t the anime include it?? They could’ve even squeezed it into someone’s nightmare at some point post-escape since RE both heavily regretted not being able to save Norman. That’s just wishful thinking on my part though, you know, if the second season actually followed the story and gave us original scenes we actually wanted to see.

Bro he already look so dead inside.. this poor boy is trying his hardest to stay positive for Emma but mentally he is about to fall apart.

The parallel of the cup overfilling with water as Norman experiences an overwhelming desire to live alongside everyone is so emotional. I wanna hug him please!

I know many people (even Ray) believed it was foolish of Emma’s plan to escape with everyone, but I can’t deny that tighter security would be problematic for those that end up getting left behind. Even though they couldn’t save all the kids, escaping with the fifteen oldest kids at least grants the younger ones at the house a couple more years since the farm needed more decent quality merchandise to ship out anyway.

Typical chidoroki post involving even more Isabella praise, what a surprise. Knowing she was prepared to break a limb of someone is such a scary thought though.. this woman is so serious about her own survival and there’s no way she’s gonna let herself be outplayed by a couple children. (Also, what’s with the “silence please” note on the wall? Did she put that there? Why? When? How do I find it so intriguing and humorous at the same time?)

Favorite panel/moment:

This is the first time where I went through a whole chapter and didn’t instantly go “YES! That one!” so let me think for a moment, umm.. here.

 He’s doing his best to hide his pain.

jul 30

At least it was a nice day for going out and doing real life things yesterday.

If I have my regular charm bracelet on 2 chains with 13 charm links and each of those have 2 charms each- 26+26=52 then how many more would I need to get up to 78 to have enough charms so that there's like 1 for each card in a tarot deck? The answer is 26, so basically another one of the 13 link chains. But the real question is if the Ghost grucifix is the devil, the casket is death, what do the killer whale, log flume, and t-shirt stand for?

But still the one charm per tarot card thing has been in the back of my girl brain.

That's where I can totally agree that there is a physical difference between male and female brains. Some behavior patterns are gendered and you just can't change that. I will only accept discussion on that from someone who has irrefutable proof they are studied in brain stuff, not a self diagnosis from the internet.

I survived a TBI so I get a pass when it comes to some brain things.

Now that I know what I want to do to organize a bit around here my back doesn't want to cooperate. Still not getting to a doctor about that, in general I haven't been to a doctor much in the last 20 years since I got off my seizure meds, because all they'll do is give me pain pills I don't want.

And the whole election thing because even going to the dentist and getting eye exams on the program I have is determined by the cycle of the moon and the headless chicken thing form South Park.

Some creative thoughts are going to Deadpool and the trans MCU Peter Parker having an encounter but after a certain place in the story I'm going nowhere.

No matter how many times I wear my metal stamped necklace that says 'death, taxes, wolverine' no one ever notices.

I need to stamp out 'New Circus New Monkees' on something.
