#Intriguing Connections

Every day i read a post where people write that “Bruce Wayne has an adoption problem” or that Danny is adoption bait on the first second of seeing him, not even knowing if he has a want of vengeance and a sad backstory and parallels to Bruce, and every day I want to softly cry in a corner.

it's really interesting to me that one of the first jobs ENA completes (on an initial playthrough, at least) in Dream BBQ—collecting pets for Shoryo—has you questioning whether the pets are "babies" or "tonight's dinner," considering the two possible routes to take in the game.

in one route, ENA makes her way towards an orb in the sky containing something that resembles a fetus. she does this by obtaining the Motherboard and then the Humanboard, about which the Shaman says this:

the pets might be babies.

in the other route, ENA attends the Purge Event, where characters are waiting to be eaten.

the entrance to the Purge Event looks like a face, with the doors being a mouth and the toll booths forming the eyes. additionally, to get the Taxi Driver's head, which is needed in order to reach the event, ENA travels through a network of gut-like caves.

the pets might be tonight's dinner.

belinda very firmly and kinda ruthlessly telling the doctor she wants to go home while she has sun and moon posters and the certificate diploma thing on her wall after 16 years seems to tell me even more how 1) freaked out she probably is by the whole thing in general while keeping a calm head, 2) how on edge she is from that horrible relationship from so long ago that she sees so easily how the doctor manipulates and maybe even 3) that there is a part of her that perhaps wants to go on an adventure, but life has just gotten in the way of those types of fairytale dreams

It’s the most honest job Stan’s ever had.

Sure, the company he’s working for is downright diabolical, scamming their customers in all aspects of life, but that’s not Stan’s problem.

As Le Ville Corp’s most successful customer service agent in the Oregon area his only job is to follow the company guidelines, sell as many bad deals as possible and never ever let anyone back out of a contract. 

Morality aside, nothing the company does is actually illegal, so at the end of the day Stan gets to collect his almost-minimum-wage-sized paycheck and go home in the knowledge, that no pigs will come knocking on his door anytime soon.

Life is good. Or at least as good as it gets where Stan is concerned. Last month he even got a raise for selling every bad product the company had to offer to one poor kind sucker. 

From household appliances to car insurance, magazine subscriptions and even their extremely shitty telephone and electricity contracts - the McGucket guy brought it all.

Thanks to him, Stan could upgrade from his car to an almost black mold free one room appartment with a community bathroom one block over.

Stan was finally moving up in the world and then his phone rings. He recognises the number. It’s his good friend Fiddle-not-gonna-say-the-rest McGucket.

Stan grins and cracks his knuckles. It’s about time McGucket figured out he’s gotten scammed. Time to make the poor guy’s life a living hell. No one is getting out of a contract on his watch.

“Thank you for calling Le Ville Corp. For us you are more than just a customer. You are family! This is Piers. How can I help you today?”

The moment Stan starts his greeting, he is bombarded with noise disturbances from the other side.

Ah, the good old Le Ville Corp telephone network working as intended. Maybe Stan can convince the guy to upgrade to a slightly less egregious version. 

Wait, what did he say?

His name is Dr. Stammered Lynes? Weird, but okay. Still better than Fiddle-nope-not-saying-it Hardon McGucket.

As it turns out, Stan finally met the mysterious roommate whose money McGucket has been using to pay for all of their products. Stan didn’t think the guy had it in him to ditch his roommate after the scam got discovered. Good for him!

Now, how to best screw Dr. Lynes here over.

***

An hour and a half of data security safety questions and a new phone contract later the doc hangs up to Stan’s cheery and corporate mandated farewell:

“And don’t forget we here at Le Ville Corp consider you our forever family, because you will stay with us forever!”

Stanford Pines just had the worst month of his life [not counting the weeks after the science fair that he refuses to think about].

The portal test was a disaster, his partner left, his muse refuses to explain himself and on top of all of that his new fridge won’t open, because this week’s subscription fee hasn’t been paid yet.

What the f-FIDDLEFORD!

alright here's my issue or rather issues. mari being pitt girl was always obvious which lowkey pisses me off because i think having mari pop up still alive in the present would have been so much more interesting than melissa but we see now from the finale that mari being pitt girl isn't for the reasons we thought it was. she's a decoy. it's all a part of the plan to let natalie get to help. meaning mari played a much bigger role in the story than was ever really implied. and we know nothing about her. like go through the tags and see the way people are talking about mari. the way they've become endeared to her and yet we know maybe like two whole facts about her life? i think the show's greatest downfall for me is that at the risk of sounding mean i find shauna outside of her dynamic with jackie to be the least interesting character. you had all these other side characters like mari and akilah that got so little focus in favor of centering shauna. and i get it i mean thats a how tv works you have main characters and side characters but like then give us more natalie, more van, more tai, more travis even. centering the show on shauna made me dislike parts of it especially when everything else happening outside of shauna and her little power trip was so much more interesting.

honestly, while I like the ship just fine, I think Stucky would be more compelling if it just didn’t work out in the 21st century because both of them now have this idealized and pedestalized version of the other (Bucky representing the life Steve wants to but can’t go back to, Steve representing Bucky’s freedom and ties to his humanity). I just think it’s better if they try to go back to normal, but are unable to due to the ways they’ve changed and their inability to see each other as people

ANDREY STAMATIN

Keep a close eye on Peter. You'd become desperate and turn into a villain without him.

I spend a lot of time thinking about daniil and peter, but something just clicked into place for me with andrey. so!

I am. currently untangling this thread of thoughts about the stamatin twins and daniil and this kind of. triangle that's happening. a three fold bullet for sure, the kind of recognition-awareness-understanding where three people become one, but to step back from that. when daniil and andrey talk, there's a specific shape of peter that stands in his conversational absence. so: triangle formation. it's opposite-adjacent-complementary to daniil and peter's conversations. it all goes back to that first conversation you have with andrey. it's giving knife. love it!

I also maybe started crying when "It's raining somewhere else" started playing at the end of ch 4

I’ve complained about Stray Gods a lot but I will say that I dig most of the designs, I like that the Minotaur is kinda based on Disney’s Beauty and the Beast, there’s even a ballroom scene that seems based on the one in the movie

What I really love about TreyJade is the fact that you can enjoy shipping them for entirely different reasons. Some TreyJade enjoyers like them for their matching freakiness. Some enjoy shipping them because their banter can be fun and enjoyable. Others ship them because they look good together. Or you can ship them because they're both mature and observant. Some enjoy shipping them because of their compatible interests. They're also enjoyable because they're like puzzle pieces from different puzzle sets that fit each other anyway. Others may enjoy shipping them for their intricate relationship and deeper connection. They can be freaky, they can be domestic, they can be cute and playful, they can have immense tension, they can understand each other on a deeper level.... A lot of writers and fanartists potray them differently, and I love every single possible dynamic of their relationship.

As for me? Well, I love them for all of the reasons mentioned above KSHFKSHDK
