episode 6 and beyond in a nutshell

[justarandomhelluvablog]

having thoughts about how Husk actually has very little left to redeem bc he started his journey of self-change before even coming to work at the hotel, but at the same time redemption isn't even his goal- he ain't even aiming for heaven, he just wanted to be a better person and maybe now with friends and especially Angel, who he supports so much and wants to see succeed, maybe now he has a reason to be a better person

one more thing about phantom traveler that excited me: the ending scene where sam and dean call john's phone and hear his answering machine.

dean is upset by this confirmation. it's the first time dean has had to really grapple with the truth: that john is intentionally avoiding them, that he's fine, actually, and that he's not in danger. it shatters the illusions that have driven him since the first episode, and this is disappointing. it's a betrayal of the expectations he had for his father.

phantom traveler is an episode about fear—dean's fear, specifically. the A story introduces his fear of flying, but it also gives indications of what else he's afraid of.

the episode hints at the perhaps surprising rigidity of their roles in hunting, with dean as the more active fighter and sam as the more passive intellectual, even when dean is scared stiff on the plane. given further context throughout the season, this can very well be extrapolated to mean that dean is afraid of sam getting hurt. he has to protect sam; that's his job, and taking on the more physically dangerous role and leaving sam in a safer position allows him to ensure that protection.

in other words, dean is afraid of losing sam.

the end of this episode hints at another, similar fear. if the episode is about fear, then dean's reaction to john's betrayal should logically also be about fear. the betrayal here is that john is running away from them, leaving them behind, avoiding them. he's intentionally breaking apart the family unit, and since john presumably doesn't know that sam is with him, that means john is intentionally leaving dean alone.

so dean is also afraid of losing john, and of being alone (aka, without a family).

we've seen this before, and we'll see it again.

dean's desire to be surrounded by his family also informs his fear of being alone, abandoned by his family or separated from them. it informs what he's willing to do to avoid that outcome, by, as seen in this episode, shoving his fear aside to perform his role (and as we later learn about him, by remaining blindly loyal to john, a result of his failure to protect sam from the shtriga).

this is the episode that truly begins dean's narrative arc, pushes him out of his comfort zone both through the A story with the plane demon and through the B story with john's answering machine. dean will not be able to return to the comfort and security of his loyalty and will instead have to confront his fears as they become more and more inescapable. sam's overarching conflict between family and freedom began with the pilot, and now four episodes in dean's conflict has been forcefully dug up and he can no longer avoid the choices he'll have to make.

FUCK APPLE TV LIVES DO NOT GET APPLE TV ITS BULLSHIT

[creed-of-cats]

There's something about that first meeting with Bruce, Terry and Powers that really gets me. Its so, so early in our titular heroes' partnership. They're still testing each other, weary about how the hell they're going to do this without someone ending up dead. But in this moment, Terry goes at Powers and the only thing holding him back is a single moment of looking at Bruce, and he backs off. This kid, who grew angry at a single comment from a high school friend or his dad being disappointed in him just a short time before, keeps his cool in front of the guy who murdered his dad. Just because just Bruce walking away says not now, not yet.

Terry obviously wants revenge on Powers, but I feel like it's not discussed much that Bruce does too. Batman is not the only legacy the Wayne's left in Gotham. Their company funded a lot of the welfare and social programs in a corrupt system, and it's an incredible amount of power in the hands of someone who doesn't care or is actively malicious. But that was the Bruce Wayne side of the mission. And the problem with that is that Bruce never really just let himself be Bruce Wayne. He had to have both or nothing, put every single part of himself into the mission.

Terry reclaims Batman, and with someone else under the cowl, Bruce finally reclaims Bruce Wayne. Powers and his hold over Gotham couldn't have been broken without Terry and Bruce working together, both in ways that would've been practically impossible without the other. When Blight dies, there's not even a question if they'll stop. Their redemption is already too far along.

I think part of the reason why Bruce kind of has this begrudging respect, this love/hate relationship with Terry's penchant for forgiveness is how it extends to him. I'd like to think that at first, Terry may have had resentment for what Bruce did with his company. If Bruce hadn't given up, Powers wouldn't have had the power to do what he did, and get away without legal consequence. But I'm not sure he would've held on to that resentment for long, or have it more then a thought in anger. Terry understands what causes someone to fall. As Terry said in the first episode, Something happened to you, and it wasn't just that you got old.

Bruce trains Terry, sees the potential in him to become Batman. But Terry also sees that Bruce could be better and pushes him to do so. He offers Bruce forgiveness and a second chance from his past failings. To make it up to the city he poured so much into and then abandoned. The really interesting thing is that Bruce doesnt offer that back, Terry's drive to be a better person is solely from himself. Bruce hates himself enough to stay in his misery, but Terry is the city's answer. So what? Life is not over. It's never too late. The push to take a risk and care again, about Batman, about himself, and about Gotham.

It starts here. When Bruce finally stands up to Powers, the figure of guilt and anger both if them share, and says no, I'm not going to let you do this anymore.

HACKS AND GAGS AND PUKES AND CRIES AND DIES

[sweetzscore]

I am not handling the ending to MD Ep.6 well. Im just refusing to accept it. Nuh uh

[theflagscene]

Mom, you’re ruining the boy’s plains to see their partners! Go away!

Good boy, Day, remind your mother that she in fact has two sons! Oh poor Night, sobbing over some stew. That woman ruined her kids, seriously, why are these QL parents always idiots?

Mhok is gonna get stood up isn’t he? Ugh! Forget family time, don’t break Mhok’s heart.

Yes, cute family moments, but Mhok!!!

Yay, he showed up! And all by himself too.

Day is eating a second Christmas dinner for Mhok, that’s love right there lol.

Lmao, don’t worry Day, I don’t like red wine either. Sour grapes is all it is.

No! Come on, don’t do this! No! Ugh. P’Aof I expected better from you. This whole; Day can only be truly happy with sight, after all this build up of how to trust in himself and learned to live blind. I’m so disappointed.

[koszmarnybudyn]

Do I think Gorgie having enough of Jon's bullshit and them not talking anymore is a good decision? Yes. Will i still think about it forever now also yes.

Like Jon was told not to sewer his support system, he kinda tried to fix it, failed, went into a coma and now hes not really human and everyone doesn't trust him/like him/think he's sus as hell, and to be frank he did dig that hole himself. But god is it painful to watch the dirt go up.

[semi-sketchy]

The Q&A of the Xenoblade 3 art book leaked and I am. Feeling something.

I think it's annoyance. I don't know if even Takahashi knows what he's cooking at this point.

[paellegere]

i like gadreel... he has so much soggy and pathetic energy. dude just wants to be loved, which is a perfect parallel to sam himself. they were both shunned by heaven and scorned by those they love and treated like monsters and still they seek redemption and salvation for the sins that were thrust upon them by the influence of lucifer.

i think the most painful part of this whole gadreel plot is that it's a tragedy to its core. none of this had to happen this way. if all of them had been honest and upfront and open-minded about their intentions and goals, i think gadreel could have made a strong and helpful ally. but gadreel was scared, and dean was scared, and none of them have room in their hearts for trust. suspicion has a ripple effect that causes more hurt.
