Friends Fake Fan with Benefits

[ladymostdeject]

A scene from Say Hello, Wave Goodbye by @bapple117 that made me cackle. Vox gives Alastor a (Custom! Red!) phone, who VERY reluctantly takes it.

The Radio Demon looks down at the device with slightly more open curiosity, then. He pokes at it gingerly with a single claw, as if it is a dead bird someone has shoved in his face rather than a basic, everyday gadget. Alastor tuts. He can see no other way around this, it’s true; their fake public feuds are going to need to be carefully choreographed and thoroughly planned. Trying to orchestrate that is going to be near impossible without some form of covert communication. Alastor has no choice but to surrender the fight - it pains him greatly, but even he knows there’s not much point in resisting. Not if they are to keep this game alive and beating, which they both so keenly want to do. Alastor sighs wearily in resignation. “If-“ Alastor starts. “FUCK YES!” Vox says, grinning, fists clenched and arms pumping. “OH, I fuckin’ DID IT, you’re gonna fuckin’ use it?!”

Loving how we post Phee hate in the Tech tag like that's just the grossest most juvenile nonsense.

Anyways she's amazing, every episode she's in is improved by her presence, I hope she's the key to de-programming a CX-Tech so everyone can die mad about it. 😊

Although, if there is one thing I learned on my travels, it is forever to expect the unexpected.

Netherwood!Reader in Part IV: Sanemi doesn’t love me, not anymore —

Sanemi in Part IV:

“One condition,” Sanemi’s voice cut in. “I accompany you.”

Your face softened. “You needn’t trouble yourself with such a burden.”

“I will not tolerate you venturing off into the Wood alone.”

“I won’t be alone,” you challenged, nodding at Shinobu. “Shinobu will be with me every step of the way —“

“We are not separating.”

“Sanemi —“

“You cannot ask me to endure that, Y/N. Not again.” Sanemi finally lifted his head to meet your gaze. His stare was both accusatory and desperate, but underneath it all was pain, raw and fresh. Pain that tightened his features, visceral enough that you felt it worm itself into your chest and threaten to crush what remained of your heart.

“I do not understand you,” you whispered. “You cannot stand to look at me, yet you act as though the idea of being apart from me would be nothing short of torture.”

“It would be,” Sanemi did not tear his eyes away from the fire crackling in the hearth. “And I’m not sure I’d survive it a second time.”

“It is only the bond, Sanemi.” You said dully, and his head finally turned toward you. You swallowed thickly around the lump that formed in your throat under the searing weight of his stare. “The bond is making you feel compelled to go with us.”

Sanemi watched you for a long moment before looking away, almost in resignation. “Aye, if that’s what you choose to believe.”

“You did not see him, Sister. When you went missing.” Genya said quietly. “I thought he’d gone mad. He was ready to rip the Wood apart with his bare hands if it meant finding you.”

The Girlfriend Montage

I can't shake this moment from my mind and some interpretations of moments like this in this season have gotten me mad, so here's what I've got to say about the girlfriend montage. Carmy telling Richie he's gotta call his girlfriend, then we get splices of scenes containing Carmy making food for Claire, Claire working in the hospital, and for reasons that are highly debated by some but seem completely obvious to others including myself there are scenes of Sydney interjected into the couple's montage.

I have my thoughts as to why Sydney is in the montage but that's not the point I want to linger on, not now at least.

I am going to focus on this part in particular: the one where Sydney is undressing and we see the Three of Swords tattoo.

To me, nothing is unintentional in this show. Nothing is inconsequential. And this small, two second shot of Sydney proves that in more ways than I can think of.

What I can't shake is how freaking similar it is to a scene we will later see in ep. 9. The sex scene with Carmy and Claire. It's an intimate moment. The room is cast in blue hues. It's all close up shots, quick cuts, and we can barely make out who is who and what is where. The moment is completely intimate and sensual in all the ways a romantic sex scene typically is conveyed.

And it matches the picture above nearly identically.

The choice to show the audience Sydney's tattoo bathed in this blue light that they will later use for Carmy and Claire's sex scene, the choice to capture this extreme close up, the choice to include the strap of her bra and a tattoo with an image that symbolizes heartbreak and betrayal, the choice to put one of the most intimate and vulnerable shots of Sydney in this montage meant for a couple is.... pretty indicative of the romantic undertones hidden in Carmy and Sydney's connection. The first time I saw it, I was blown away by how intimate of a shot that was of Sydney. We've never seen her like that - undressing, her skin that is always covered exposed, seeing for the first time that she has a tattoo. Just like we never saw Carmy like that in his sex scene with Claire, him being so intimately exposed.

I don't know how else to interpret it. Because all of what's stated above is not coincidence. The creators of this show didn't coincidentally put scenes of Sydney into the couple's montage and they definitely didn't mirror the imagery from the picture above to the sex scene in ep. 9 on accident. Just like how they didn't coincidentally have Carmy think of Sydney to calm him down during his panic attack.

Louis de Pointe du Lac has never been more relatable.

Just getting wasted with his new bestie, slagging off his ex that he is not even a little bit over.
