Someone just treated me like a dog today and it made me feel? So good?? Like I was caught off guard at first cause they've never done that before (they only pet my head but still), but then they were like, "But aren't you a dog?" and AGH, it felt so nice!

An unlikely crossover I think would be extremely entertaining

Batman: has a ‘no metas in Gotham’ rule and an incredibly strict code against killing

Me, rubbing my hands together, about to drop mono (a twelve year old killer with fuck off strong superpowers) into his area: >:)))

why am i seeing vegaspete in korntonkla ....... 😩 also that scene of one of them being shot ....... pls tell me i am not the only one

(this is not comparing! i just got reminded by them 😔)

Anon, trust me, I've been over here screaming, crying, spamming @wretchedamaranth 's DMs about the similarities between Tonkla and Pete throughout the whole show. You're not alone here.

There are plenty of similarities to see between KornTonkla and VegasPete from the way their story ended. I said it yesterday, too: I have a feeling Sammon probably got inspired by the pool scene to write KornTonkla's end in 4 Minutes and I couldn't be happier about it.

(The funniest thing is that I personally wrote Pete having thought of committing suicide after Vegas got shot before he was stopped and Vegas was saved in a post-canon VP fic, so the experience of watching the finale was quite something hahah.)

It's natural to compare similar viewing experiences. A lot of people have compared VP with BostonNick and SandRay from Only Friends (guilty of the former), as well as MingJoe from My Stand-In. It's not a bad thing to compare and it's not a bad thing to get reminded of it.

VegasPete means a lot to a lot of people. Other (BOC) shows reminding us of them isn't a bad thing. I'm able to cherish KornTonkla this much *because* I got to experience VegasPete first.

And I think that's beautiful.

i don’t know about you but for me personally, the possibility of buddie in the future depends on how season 7 goes. if the season ends with one/both in a relationship and not a single hint towards buddie, however subtle, i don’t think it will ever happen. i know slow slow slow burn is a thing, but i also feel like they would have done it by then after 6 seasons of buck and eddie. nevertheless, fingers crossed for a HINT of future buddie by the end of s7 even if they’re nowhere near canon YET

I am mostly with you on this, yeah, like, I think everything that happened in s6 put them in a place where they have to separate them permanently or stop ignoring the fact that there's more going on between them. Movement in one direction will have to happen. Any direction. Because slow burn is one thing, keep making them go around in a circle is another. I'm never gonna fully lose hope is gonna happen, unless one of them gets killed off, but it is 5 seasons of them being deeply tangled together, and that became even harder to deny because of the choices they made in s6, everything about them surrounding Buck's death upped the expectations there, so we are at a point where the show needs to make a statement about them loving each other or let them truly move on without the whole emotional infidelity aspect of them. Let Eddie date because he wants to date not because people keep telling him he's gonna die sad and alone after having a conversation with his tia that actually highlights stuff he did with Buck the episode before. Let Buck date someone because he feels like dating someone not because she came back and he thinks that the only thing that matters because Abby fucked him up by never coming back. Or let them crash together. Like, let them have the meaningful relationship you've been hinting at with each other or let them find meaningful relationships with other people, but like, stop making them go around in circles. Marisol and Natalia narratively to me feel exactly like Taylor and Ana and that's boring, we've done that. I think we need a statement, something, anything really, I don't think s7 can keep them in the limbo in a way that's not going to just be annoying for the audience.

Pettiest, most unprovable thing that I still scoff and roll my eyes at like they just failed a freebie question on a test is when people headcanon Spanish Jackie doesn't like Izzy.

Izzy makes a quip about hating her bar yet Geraldo, a husband who doesn't seem to get out much and comes from a gang - not pirate - background knows him by sight. And is surprised he's been away so long. Jackie is about to add Stede's nose to the jar and a hesitant interjection that Izzy was in there looking for him stops it instantly.

"But wait," you ask, thinking that somehow I've not already thought of this, "Doesn't it make more sense that she stopped because of Blackbeard aka most intimidating guy around???"

You would think, maybe, except minutes later Geraldo is dispatched to lure Stede to the Spanish Navy to die. If she actually cared about Edward's opinion then nothing has changed. I guess the Geraldo trap is trying to be covert but it's not terribly effective? Edward literally follows them. She still very pointedly avoided interfering in Blackbeard's business and then turned around to immediately interfere. However. Something that could have changed the moment the door hit Stede on the way out is Jackie asking what exactly Izzy and Stede discussed... and realizing "Ohhhh wait Izzy wants this dude dead. We're cool. Kill him."

"Well maybe Jackie is just doing her own thing," you suggest. "Playing whatever side. Trying not to directly antagonize Blackbeard but she doesn't actually give a shit?"

Well that would be plausible, EXCEPT! Skip ahead! Izzy goes straight to Jackie after getting kicked off the boat. She's ordering him a drink and ready to hear his proposition immediately. They talk offscreen. They summon Badminton to her bar. So two things to point out here:

If Jackie was taking a "play nice with Blackbeard in public" stance then what the hell is she doing this for? I maintain the plan was under the table and had minimal risk from the British, but I think there was fairly high risk of Edward finding out. She doesn't get much out of this besides Stede dead, and while she bears a grudge idk if it was a "kill Blackbeard's new boyfriend and hope he doesn't get pissed about it" grudge. But if Izzy being all upset about this is a genuine point in the plan's favor on its own...?

Izzy spends his whole goddamn visit bemoaning his relationship woes. And Jackie sits there and listens! Do we think she can't shut Izzy up? Or make a quip about it to poke fun at Izzy? Nah, Jackie is fulfilling the sacred and time-honored role of bestie who listens to everything Stede has done and solemnly declares "That bitch" even when Izzy is being objectively way too dramatic about this. She also probably advocates for dumping Edward.

I lied. 3 things. Jackie invites Badminton and his navy guys to her bar. She doesn't like them, she's probably only doing this because she gets to hold something over them... again, this is so much just for Stede since she has the least investment in his death. But if Izzy needs her to do him a solid and she actually likes him enough to care? Makes sense.

Izzy obviously gets Jackie in the divorce and she's the one supplying both a steady stream of breakup booze and alternating grounded and truly unhinged advice. She's the shoulder of solidarity. The Evelyn to his Mary. I will be taking zero notes on this because I'm right 😌

Spencer wouldn't be Spencer if he didn't take the time to hype up Trina for running Cyrus out of there with her sheer force of will. A boy who knows his girlfriend has superhero tendencies and loves her for it.
