#Split-second decisions

[ghost-bxrd]

You guys ever think about an AU where Jason goes to hound Tim through Titans Tower, and, mid pursuit—while Tim is screaming at him about the second Robin being his hero, tryin to crawl away in a trail of blood—realizes he’s become an even worse version of his own mother, who sold him out to the Joker?

Because I do.

i never want anyone to say anything bad about daniel ricciardo's driving ever again because he was on direct collision course with oscar piastri's stationary car and in a split second decided and reacted to put himself into the wall to prevent severe damage to their cars and spare oscar the risk of injury

it’s frustrating seeing people comment about how mami should’ve just moved out of the way when charlotte revealed her true form.

like…I thought it was pretty obvious that the reason why Mami didn’t move was because she was in shock and had let her guard down due to the prospect of not being alone anymore.

yeah, your body moving automatically to save someone is good and all, but have you considered the inherent love required to see what’s about to happen, to know what will happen to you if you save them, and to do it anyway, because even though it might kill you, they’ll survive, and in the end that matters far more, because they’re worth it, in the end?

Yes, this post is about Kakaobi.

How do we feel about the idea that Sofia hunts Nell down so intensly could be in part due to jealousy?

Its very clear that Sofia is very obsessive about hunting down Nell to frame her for Lord Blancheford's murder. Like she doesn't really need to do all of that. She has the benefit of it being her word against theirs, and the social status to back it up, and they quite easily hold the appearance of grieving children seeking out justice for their father through hired bounty hunters and a 40 pound reward on Nell's head. And like, there is something to be said for the fear that Nell may eventually get someone of importance on her side, and as such getting rid of her permanently is in their best interest. However, I think it would add an interesting layer to the whole dynamic to explore Sofia being jealous of Nell.

Because Nell and Sofia are very clearly two characters that are supposed to be similar yet on complete opposite sides. Their connection to magic, their values of protecting their siblings, and their want to have control over their own situations are just some to name a few.

Yet, Nell is able to escape Tottenham through marrying Captain Jackson, and then continues to keep a hold on her freedom through the way she dresses and presents herself, as well as with the support of her family. She even gets offered tenancy of the Talbot. It's not without consequences obviously, we see it all throughout the show, but she still has a lot more freedom than you'd expect for a woman of that time. Sofia however is still trapped. Her whole life is dictated for her thanks to her high status, and when her father dies, she only just gets a taste of some semblance of power over her own situation through running the estate (though this would be on the down-low and probably with credit attributed to Thomas) and learning magic offered by Poynton. And even then, she's still disregarded and disrespected by the men around her.

It wouldn't surprise me if a large motivation in hunting down Nell for Sofia is the satisfaction of stripping Nell of her freedom. This woman, who is so similar to her yet just because of the family she is born into, gets to have what Sofia can't. And in a 'If I can't have it, neither can you' type of way, I think Sofia would take that and internalise it until it becomes all consuming. Probably convincing herself that once Nell has been stripped of her freedom, she will finally get her own.

THIS IS A CALLOUT POST FOR MY DMS @themilokin AND @phoenix-failing FOR HITTING US WITH A SCENARIO SO FUNDAMENTALLY HEARTBREAKING IN ITS IMPLICATIONS THAT WE SPENT THE ENTIRE SESSION ARGUING ABOUT WHAT TO DO AND ALSO LIKE THREE OF US STARTED CRYING. AND THEN, WHEN WE FINALLY MADE OUR DECISION, AND WE HAD TO SAY GOODBYE TO A BELOVED NPC THAT HAS BEEN WITH US ALMOST SINCE THE BEGINNING, THEY HIT US WITH A TWIST SO GRACIOUS AND UNEXPECTED THAT WE STARTED THREATENING THEM WITH PHYSICAL VIOLENCE (EXTREMELY AFFECTIONATE)

HOLY SHIT, WHAT A GAME.

People are so afraid of the possibility of neytiri not always being completely pure in her actions and that she is willing to do something drastic in a moment of grief. Honestly I find that idea way more interesting than "oh no, she actually cares for spider. See how she pushed him behind her in the last second!"

And then the deleted scene comes out proving me right. She was 100% on board with possibly killing spider because in that moment she wasn't thinking straight.

Like God forbid we have the "good" (I use that term with a grain of salt) characters doing questionable things because they've been pushed off the deep end.

What's the term? Morally gray?

Ok, so... Is it cool with everyone that I make this side blog specifically for Slay the Princess or any other hyper fixations I have?

Cool? Cool! 👏👍
