#I am chewing walls

[fawnforevergone]

the way hozier titles a song "i, carrion (icarian)" where he sings about the self-destructive idea of sacrificing himself by flying into sun to save his relationship, and compares himself to 'carrion', the decaying flesh of animals, often a word used for roadkill. to then go and write a song called "abstract (psychopomp)" about how holding an animal whilst it dies mirrors the mercy of ending a failing relationship, similar to a 'psychopomp' - a deliverer of death. and we watch as hozier turns from 'icarian' to 'psychopomp' when he realises that prolonging suffering is crueler than just letting love die. i'm both in awe and crying on my bedroom floor.

and the way a carrion crow is also a symbol of death ?? and how 'carrion' sounds like 'carry on' the way icarus kept going ?? and how he sounds envious of his lover's courage in "abstract" ?? how when the sun is gone - "streetlights in the dark blue" - he can no longer blind himself and is forced to look at the corpse of his relationship ?? how to love is to let go ?? how can he keep getting away with this i'm sobbing ??

Okay Ghosties, now we analyse the tiny amount of pixels we saw of his skin from a distance for less than a minute!

First up - Glowing eyes! Those are new! Also they're both white again! Rip cool looking blue eye, you will be missed. But also, it means his soul is no longer leaking out of his face and that feels like something we should celebrate!

Secondly - The original hood colour is back, and in its natural shade too! Not a darker red like it has been for a while. No that shit is back to being a primary colour! Joyous day! (/j I miss the blue already)

Third and most important - The fuck is this?

THAT is not the sword that is supposed to be on the back of his usual skin. Is it a symbol with lore connotations? Is it wing slits? So far I have no idea because I'm yet to find a better angle of his back!

That's all I've got so far but it has been less than half an hour and all I have to work with are screenshots. Anything else anyone's found?

the doctor trying to get through to bracewell by pressing old wounds -- dead family, dead soldiers -- because he sees humanity as suffering and loss and grief, and proof of humanity as being able to feel that. amy successfully getting through to bracewell by pressing that "kind of a good hurt." fancying someone you shouldn't. humanity not as uncomplicated grief but as complicated grief. the distinction that the human can make but the alien can't. the single degree that separates the doctor from the humans he loves so much.

yeah your rituals may be intricate. But have u ever placed a real gun in the hands of your eternal and fated enemy, watched his hands shake as he points it at you, and trusted that he will not let the bullet touch you, all for a magic trick that was your idea in the first place? have u ever seen true fear in his eyes and still known that even without miracles, he will let no harm come to you, even if that harm is only a ridiculous amount of heavenly paperwork?

pondering anon back again for the third time today 😔😔😔 i can’t stay away I CAN’T STOP PONDERING! MAKE IT STOP!!!!!

Thinking and pondering about the bedding ceremony with cregan. prior to the ceremony he pulls you aside, the nervousness and discomfort evident in your demeanour as the moment approaches. he implores you to reveal what it is that troubles you, what has brought you such discomfort on your wedding day, what troubles his darlings wife’s pretty head, and how what shall he do in order to bring you happiness on such a day where you are most paramount to him. he would not have your holy matrimony be built on such negative feelings. so when he finally clocks that it is the bedding ceremony… or moreso its audience that concerns you, all bets are off. he grabs your face and tilts it towards his own and makes his final vow for the night, that for as long as you are his wife, he shall do naught to displease you or indignify you. though some insolent voices amongst the “welcomed” guests (horny lords, medieval porn addicts) urged him to maintain the tradition that is not oft broken. for every great man there are tenfold lesser men.

to alleviate the bickering of bitchless blue balled lords, he agrees to let them spectate and witness the consummation. though ‘there has never lived a stark who forgot an oath’. so it was decided by cregan himself that they would indeed witness the consummation; but not through their eyes, through their ears. so the lords, less than eager to further question their wardens orders, resigned to sitting outside his bedchambers doors and sat there with each other in shameful silence as they hear the most lewd sounds echo from beneath the heavy oak door. they are just there, in the middle of the hallway, sat in chairs facing the door with their hands awkwardly clasped together in their laps and all they hear are your whines of pleasure, wet slapping sounds, the creaks of the wood bedframe, and cregans gutteral groans and occasional utterings of “mine” “my beautiful wife” and other inaudible ramblings of what could only be declarations of his devotion to keeping you nice and safe, keeping you his. letting you know that you are his as he is yours from that moment forward as your moans are heard from all seven kingdoms much to your dismay but a girl can’t help it! all they can do is picture how on earth it is that he is pleasuring you with such fervour. blue balled for life.

and they sit there until the first silence, when all sound ceases and it is evident through cregans very vocal and loud lovemaking that you had both reached your peaks (which left many lords wide eyed and stunned, as despite having witnessed so many consummations, none would be able to recall such a moment where a woman were to create such lustful sounds and certainly not able to recall a woman having an orgasm. “most unnatural” recalls one lord.). now very eager to remove themselves from such a humbling and quite embarrassing situation, some of the lords from lesser houses stood up to leave. though they were interrupted when the sounds of pleasure quickly resumed much to their astonishment. soon they were back to their former positions, staring at the door which at that point they could’ve sworn was the most dreadful door they had ever laid eyes on. just as soon, they came to understand that they would be there for some time (many hours on end as it turned out to be, well into the night and creeping towards the first light of dawn). only half made it through the entire bedding ceremony and many a lord fell asleep by the 3rd hour of ceaseless noise.

TLDR:::: cregan fucks hard, he fucks loud, and he fucks like he wants you pregnant as soon as possible (because he does :///////).

i apologize for such long asks of my incomprehensible ponderous thoughts, i’m not evening asking anything anymore i am simply begging for you to hear me out guys hes so fine #needthat 😔😔😔

just gonna… just gonna leave this here. i am so normal about this

fucking HAUNTED by Stolas’s "I have wanted you for so long," not just because of the longing, the anguish, the desperate need, but because of the way it parallels (YET AGAIN THANKS TEAM IM DYING) one of his lines in "The Circus": "No one's ever wanted me this way."

We know, in "The Full Moon," he's not talking about sexual desire; he's specifically trying to convince Blitz that's NOT the only thing he wants from their relationship. And retroactively, it's making me think about the fact that Stolas, in his absinthe- and erotica-addled brain, thought Blitz was there to sweep him off his feet.

He didn't only mean that no one had ever wanted him sexually, although that was true for all he knew. He meant that no one ever wanted him THAT WAY, with the sort of passion that sparked "I need you at all costs" feelings, "I'll risk scaling the palace walls for you" feelings. What's more, no one ever wanted him the WAY HE WAS, in all his shyness, his desperately-concealed, aching need for intimacy, his shameful hidden kinks and desires, all the things Blitz saw and said, "yes, I want THAT." He wanted the true, deep, hidden parts of him, too. That was Stolas’s one taste of wild, fiery romance, already fading by the next morning when Blitz snuck out of his bed.

And Stolas wants Blitz like that, wants to know every part of him. There's so much fucking yearning in that line, to have Blitz’s heart, yes, but also to be allowed to understand him and see the parts of himself he keeps hidden, and to tell him "I'll take all of it."

absolutely going batshit insane over the parallels between Sarah and Ellie

It’s the same fucking look. It’s the same look in their eyes. the same fucking thing.

They both hold on to him the same way. the exact same way.

And he holds on to them the exact same way. the exact fucking way.

His daughters look at him and hold him the exact same way.

And he holds on to his daughters the exact same way. He even has the same look on his face.

fucking bawling over this. I am so going insane over this rn.

dark justiciar shadowheart is genuinely so interesting to me as like... a facet to her character. like it really hammers home how desperate she is for shar's love and affection (+ the validation and love from other worshipers of shar). like in a lot of ways I get that it seems shocking to others / some fans because it really does contradict some of the morals we see her express BUT imo that just speaks to the level of desperation she feels. her comments on how shar "must" love her for her to survive the shadowcursed lands, or the bit where she talks about shar nurturing her and loving her and sounds... almost more like shes trying to convince herself more than shes trying to convince you. theres a bit about other sharrans not thinking she had earned her name, and of course the mother superior not thinking she was ready / worthy of being a dark justiciar. like shes just so completely desperate to feel unconditionally and securely loved, and to earn the approval of others that shes entirely willing to injure herself in the process (as well as.... the people who actually love her, of course).

not to mention that mechanically, afaik, she can only end up there if shes encouraged to by the player. ie... she needs to know someone else approves.

keep thinking about how since it's implied that the Ace in Dimension Jump is the original (as in that there weren't multiple Aces jumping in multiple different dimensions simultaneously) it means that that single version of Rimmer was the direct catalyst for the deaths of thousands of other versions of himself
