#all of this makes riley want to puke lmao

[spentgladiator]

Marriage is hard because sometimes u wanna go hide in a teeny tiny log cabin with no wifi no toilet no running water and a woodstove for four days and your wife wants to go to a bed and breakfast in the city and this is. Irreconcilable because everything that sounds good to me sounds terrible to her and vice versa

Otome Friday

Antares Route

-Eggplant is a dumbass. 

-But you already knew that

-I hope the creature eats the eggplant. 

-Damn. Eggplant got away. 

-First aid for Antares.

-Yay! The eggplant got arrested. 

-Lmao “enjoy your title while you still have it”

-*ahem* GIVE CORVUS FACIAL EXPRESSIONS!!! He deserves more than this!!

-Oh fuck. CG nearly made me spit potatoes. (I was eating hash browns at the time of writing this.)

-Meeting with the higher ups went well. 

-Eggplant got demoted and 20 years.

-Final episode

-That went by really quickly

-Why. Why do we have to kiss him in front of the superiors? (Oh ADI no you don’t...No no, I’m going to.)

-I like drama. 

-So no drama. Just Antares showering Zella with compliments 

-Yay, we can get married.

-Oh dear. Zella wants to invite his family. His brother.

-Now he’s pouting like a child being forced to make up with his brother. 

-Oh wait. He is. 

-The Promise crew is precious. 

-Atlas! “Blink once if he’s holding you against your will”

-Omg. I think that’s the first smile I’ve seen from Atlas in this route. 

-Well fuck. The plant for the antidote is gone. 

-Say goodbye to the universe kids!!

Antonio Route

-Here’s hoping I actually like his route. 

-If it’s a betrayal route I’m out. Fuck that.

-So the premise is that he’s sponsoring Grace on a trip. And that’s he’s actually after Ziva. What?

-Here we go

-....University of Barcelona. I’m not jealous. (I am. Spain is beautiful)

-....Damn. Damn him for looking so hot in a fucking t-shirt

-So we’re trying to sell the house in this one

-Oh fuck no! who is this fucing creep!

-Lol they called him “will sleep when he’s dead”

-What the fuck is going on?!

-He gonna come back and bite you Ziva.

-Interesting interaction with Mac.

-Again. Why is Ziva/MC sleeping on the couch? Does that house only have 2 rooms? I doubt it. Considering her parents had a study in there.

-This is a long ass first chapter

-Antonio out here staking mfers

-Ew. Victor’s still in this one. Can we stake him now. Ya know, get it over with?

-Did we have to go the twilight route with the reveal? Really?

-”Why does he have to be so terrible yet so good looking?” That sums up Antonio’s character right there.

-They pulled a “damn bitch you live like this” 

-WTF is that interior?! Omg it’s so gaudy. 

-”He vants to suck your blood!” LOL I can’t take anything seriously

-Okay. We might be actually getting somewhere with the whole Ziva/MC is not what she seems angle

-You know, for a servant, Victor is awfully mouthy

-It’s cute that Ziva is worried about Mac getting roping into supernatural stuff. 

-UGH! What I hate about this route is that Victor’s in it. 

-Arguing with Victor about the decor is my new fav thing

-AHHHHHHHH I love this so much.

-Tired Buyer is up to some shit

-NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO Ziva don’t be stupid!!

-OMG I can’t believe this is actually happening!

-Ziva you’re a dumb ass.

The Royal Romance

-Aw shit it’s back!!

-Gimme my King!

-I can’t resist the opportunity to throw shade. Especially at Neville

-Murderking is excited for the duel. Cause of course he is. 

-And they’re doing this with real swords?

-Okay...

-Yas Drake. Throwing all the shade. “I have respect for my betters. I just don’t consider you one of them”

-WHAT THE FUCK?!!

-Dude just got shot (in the arm) and now he’s getting stabbed! 

-We go from sword fighting to WWE. I love it

-Of course when the sword gets pointed at him, Neville shows how much of a coward he truly is. (And then he shaves his head and goes to word for Eros)

-Where’s your baby Savannah?

-Olivia I love you!

-It’s her Aunt. Like we already knew. 

-Though I was hoping for it to be like Drake’s mom or something. 

-Oh that last option is so tempting. So very tempting. 

-But I don’t need anymore enemies. Middle option it is. 

-Did we really need the purple goblet? I mean I love it but come on. 

-Olivia don’t be sad! 

-Stories about little Olivia. 

-I hope.

-Jesus. Yeah we get more background on murderking

-That’s right Olivia, Riley is here for you!!!

-Say it with me “Frrriiiieeeennnndddsssss”

-And we’re back to dealing with the baby drama

-At least it was free

-I’m just trying to stretch this chapter as far as it will go

-This back and forth is getting on my nerves

-Dude a 14 year old is better at dealing with their feelings than Bertrand 

-OMG!

-Ugh it’s finally over!!

-30 diamonds to spend time with Liam....ugh fine!!!

-Yeah, your favorite spot right after the hedge maze. 

-We got new underwear

-No old people staring while we sleep thank you

-Hey it’s Leo!

-Yes. One of the things Leo’s good for. Backstory.

-Liam though Bastian was a vampire. Cute

-Murderking wants to get sentimental. 

-I notice how Leo didn’t speak to Regina. Like...at all.

-That is a decked out necklace

-gimme

-someone decided to bomb the place. 

-I swear to god. 

-Also can PB treat injuries like they’re actual injuries? 

Blood Bound

-I’m getting tired of this book. Seriously tired of it. 

-I’m gonna try to finish it out but I may drop it after the first one. 

-I want to know what Kelsey/MC is.

-Cause we all know she ain’t human

-Here we go

-Yas Kamilah! Burn them!

-Bruh. Your system is worse than the American Legal system. And that’s fucked

-Nicole you shady bitch. 

-Is there anything Nicole didn’t have her hand in? 

-Lily quoting Missy Elliot is life!

-I’m not touching Nicole unless I have to...

-Nicole. You’re going above and beyond. Calm down. 

-Why did you bring Jax into this?! Leave him alone!

-OMG! 

-Ugh! I think I’d rather be sitting next to Lester than let the Baron touch me. Puke

-Baron backstory? No thank you...

-I need a full body picture of Kamilah in 1920s garb stat!

-Gaius. Why don’t you change your clothes?

-Omg. It’s just like the movie “Daybreaker” (great movie btw)

-Hold shit. Gaius wants(ed) to release a fucking plague 

-One more fragment. (the head)

-I never noticed the pile of bodies in the lower right corner of the tapestry

-Oh I so glad it was part of the plan

-How the hell did you hide those clunky ass goggles under your shirts?

-Why is Adrian half naked?

-I pulled the lever

-WHo’s the little boy?

-I love Kamilah so much!!! “Bashed his head in with a trophy” savage af

-Adrian and Jax sizing each other up. I ship it

-I FUCKING CALLED IT!!!! 

-I KNEW SHE WAS A SHADY HOE!! RIGHT FROM THE BEGINNING OMG I FUCKING CALLED IT!!!!

-Shit. I’m gonna go play the lottery 

-This is why I don’t give side characters chances, They do shit like this!!!

Veil of Secrets

-”And then I ran into the masked man” and decided to have his babies

- -And the masked man is....Flynn

-Called it. So did 90% of the fandom

-”Everything ok?” Yeah I just need to calm my thirst.

-ex-con or not. 

-I didn’t ask for a flashback!

-Magelo

-OMG Kate was living out her favorite book!

-Oh ew it’s a nanny cam bear

-lockbox Password is Magelo

-How old are you Flynn!

-Kate suspected Tanner of cheating

-But what if I want to beat Tanner’s face in?

-Going on a yacht with Flynn

-FLYNN!!!

-Ugh Bryce again. (I REALLY hope that the chief of police is his daddy. They look too much alike for it to be otherwise)

-Ulysses is also the ship’s name

-HOLY FUCK!!!! TANNER’S DEAD!!!

-Omg. That was wow!

[couldnt-think-of-a-funny-name]

listen... i miss gmw. gimme a lil something something bout the kids' college graduations?? maybe baby penny is sick all over Farkle's diploma and it's ruined for framing and Jennifer can't BELIEVE the AUDACITY of this infant CHILD and maybe joshaya are running late late late late bc whoops impromptu trip to denmark on smthg and the plane was delayed but FSCK WE GOTTA GRADUATE or something. idk. what i do know is that i love ur blog and riarkle, in that order xxxx

You sent this in like maybe a week or so ago and I’ve been ignoring it in fear of becoming Trash once more but I just realized that it’s Riley’s birthday and life is a nightmare so the Trash Is Unleashed™

Okay so Maya stayed in New York for college as we know, but Riley and Farkle fucked off away to some Ivy League out of state

You readers can put them wherever your pretty little hearts desire, I personally like the thought of them in Boston (and I feel like it’d be a nice little circle since Feeny’s from Boston let me live)

But anyway, they’ve stayed as close as ever!!! Time and distance have no power over them!!! We know this!!!

Like we’re talking facetiming, constant texting, a group chat with memes they can’t explain to anyone else, phone calls, they all know what’s up with each other constantly

For the record they are still in touch with Zay, Smackle and Lucas but it’s just like. not CONSTANT communication you know. Like they’re group chat still lives but it’s college + Riley and Farkle have a kid so they’re all busy

But anyway

So Riley’s got her astrophysics and journalism courses aced, Farkle’s fully set to go into politics, and Maya’s art major is done with.

And you know. Our fav ot3 has been together most of their lives. They graduated middle school and high school together and they couldn’t wait to see each other graduate college

But…they were blindsided

No one had ever suspected their colleges would have the audacity to schedule their graduations on the same day

Does Riley pull a Topanga and try to fight her schools dean??? Absolutely 

Does it work? Absolutely not

So now the ENTIRE family is stressed, because most of the Matthews consider Maya part of the family, so does Minkus, Shawn can’t see his goddaughter graduate and Josh is left with the delima of “Girlfriend vs Niece”. They’re all freaking out like holy shit

Riley and Maya are just….in Full Dramatics about this

We’re talking waxing Shakespearean sonnets about the Universe™ trying to tear them apart. They make their way back to all that Sun and the Moon symbolism bullshit

After a literal week of this Farkle is TIRED

Wakes up to his four year old telling him “Mommy’s wearing a lot of eyeliner and said the world is a dark and spiteful place that doesn’t want her and Auntie Maya together and that every moment they share is in blatant defiance of fate. What’s that mean?” and this poor guy is just like,,,,,,for fucks sake,

Like obviously he wants to see Maya graduate too!!! They’re best friends!!! But these girls are EXAHUSTING him lmao

So he has a Plan, but he also knows how his Plans usually go, so he just gives tf in and calls his dad to handle it lmao

Meanwhile: Joshua

Who has just been….literally screaming nonstop since this drama unfolded

Riley’s his BLOOD, even though they’re uncle-niece they have more of a close sibling relationship

But he literally has a ring ready and waiting for Maya!!! 

And the boy is a fucking Matthews so of course HE’S in dramatic throws about this predicament 

He calls Cory for advice and Cory is like “You’re going to Maya’s because you love her and I’m not paying for your fucking flight to Boston” lmao

So it ends up with like. Katy, Shawn, Turner, Josh (+ his four bandmates), and Zay (bc he’s in the city and Broke), and Ava end up going to Maya’s ceremony 

With Cory, Topanga, Stuart, Amy, Alan, Eric, Auggie, Smackle and Feeny going to Riley and Farkle’s ceremony

Jack couldn’t get off work and Doesn’t Super Care and Morgan’s in Europe for work so they’re unfortunately off the list

They forgot to invite  Lucas didnt want anymore choosing between the girls bullshit couldn’t make the trip because of work lol

So anyway: Farkle’s Plan that was funded by Stuart? 

Absolutely got remote controlled robots so they could keep up a video call for both ceremonies 

You know damn well what I mean

Cory thinks this is absolutely the funniest fucking thing he’s ever heard of

Eric thinks this is a sign of the impending Robot Wars™

The girls are still massively upset and think Farkle’s a fucking dork but they’re very touched and love him yadayada so this calms them down a bit

But anyway like, we get to the big graduation day and like….disasters, disasters all around

Josh’s Stoner Friend™ keeps knocking into the damn robot and almost breaks it like thirty times in an hour

Eric is giving the robot at Riley and Farkle’s site a wide berth with suspicious eyes

Auggie, Cory and Penny are all suspiciously sick but are trying to power through the ceremony 

All the other students and people attending these graduations…..you know these whackjobs are getting looks. Some assholes in the crowd keep throwing stuff at the robots

Shawn and Katy are making a HUGE SCENE crying hysterically we all know they would

Jennifer makes a surprise, dramatic appearance at Farkle’s graduation

We’re talking pulling up in a limo, emerging in slow motion, wearing a glittering black evening gown, elbow length black satin gloves, stilettos and a huge hat with peacock feathers on it, making a show of searching the crowds before spotting him (standing directly in front of her) before throwing out her arms and screeching “My baby-!”

Farkle’s like ‘We literally have not spoken in at least six years will you please get the fuck out of here’

She does not, in fact, get the fuck out of there so Topanga is now on duty to make sure she and Stuart don’t get into a fight and ruin this for the kids asdfgj

Feeny keeps fucking falling asleep bc he’s old and doesn’t care about the guest speakers but he SNORES WORRINGLY LOUDLY

Students aren’t technically allowed to have devices™ out during the ceremonies so Riley and Farkle and Maya are trying so hard to be discrete as the watch the feed from each other’s graduations 

They literally end up paying more attention to each other’s graduations than their own lmao

Josh’s bandmates and Zay are all being the rowdiest fucking audience members possible like they’re all those assholes that bring noise makers and scream and clap at random intervals

Stuart and Jen keep shooting each other withering glares and trading insults as Topanga shushes them

Penny, Auggie, and Cory are just feeling more and more like Literal Death the longer this drags on 

Maya finally goes up to get her diploma and Katy literally faints

Riley and Farkle start cheering bc yay Maya!!! Until they remember they’re at their own ceremony and there is LITERALLY A SPEECH HAPPENING SO THEY’RE SCREAMING INTO THE QUIET AND INTERRUPTING EVERYTHING

Get glared back into submission but Maya’s laughing at them 

Maya’s graduation ends soonish after that but the other one is DRAGGING ON STILL so everyone is like crowed around trying to watch on Maya’s tiny screen lol

When the speech finally ends Smackle’s muttering about how everything said was factually incorrect 

Stuart and Jen are still antagonizing each other

Amy and Alan are taking enough pictures to blind people with the flash

So Riley gets called up for her diploma first right

Trips

Hard enough to fall off the fucking stage

Had to be helped back up by memebers of the band

Gets back on stage and gets her diploma

Falls again coming down

Amy and Topanga are s c re a m i ng and Maya is literally crying from the effort it takes to not laugh

Jen’s making obnoxious comments about who her son was ‘trapped’ by and Penny wants to know what that means and Stuart is prepared to stab Jen if she bothers to answer

Riley’s literally off to the side getting looked at by a medic when Farkle goes up for his diploma

He gets it fine enough but coming downstage he’s overcome with the urge to do ‘thank you I am farkle’

he didn’t realize the student that was called up after him was right behind him

punches this kid in the face, he falls

the person behind them falls

a fcucking domino effect of ivy league graduates 

Eric is literally crying from laughter watching this. So are his fucking bodyguards like they broke character bc this scene was Too Much

Feeny is back to snoring

The New York crowd is loosing their fucking minds

Farkle’s rushing back to his seat and Jen stands up to get his attention to Yell at him for being embarrassing and

Penny just fucking projectile vomits all over her

She’s SCREAMING

Cory opens his mouth to apologize and explain that she’s been sick and HE PUKES. WHICH SETS AUGGIE OFF

EVERYONES SCREAMING 

Listen it was a huge crowd but three people projectile vomiting is gonna cause a STIR

People are rushing away and it’s a whole mess of a scene

The nyc crowd is Alive watching this all unfold 

Eventually the ceremony ends and Riley and Farkle lowkey lock theirselves in their apartment for the rest of the night

Everyone thinks they’re just embarrassed but they’re fucking cracking up hysterically like it took two hours to give Penny a bath because they couldn’t catch their breath

At some point they settle down a bit and call Maya and the three of them spend the rest of their night drowning in nostalgia 

This is messy as fuck but I’m out of practice anyway

^ me when I think about gmw these days

[doramilaje]

so i’m almost finished watching the last episode of sense8 and i want to talk about some random thoughts i’ve had throughout (i do like the show, but i have more gripes than not lmao oop).

positive: - sun bak is my moon and my stars. it’s been a long time since i got that attached to a character that quickly. she’s truly #everything. - the best parts are literally any time one character helps another with their special skills.  - sun bak - the show is shot beautifully - THE SOUNDTRACK - the relationships that were already established pre-series (nomi/amanita and lito/hernando) are incredible and i get choked up by the fact that the two gay ships are both the ~old marrieds.

the meh: - the ships created during the show, tho... it doesn’t work for me. i can’t stand insta-love and this takes it to the extreme. will/riley is whatever now that they actually live together and go through shit together. like i still don’t ship them but they’re just there. but god wolfgang/kala... i thought i would be HERE for that shit bc people hyped that ship so much but they’re so fucking annoying together lmfao? are y’all on crack? i love kala and i like wolfgang, but as soon as they’re “together” they’re literally everything i hate in ships; little to no substance. me being TOLD they have a special connection without showing why. them not having an actual meaningful relationship outside ‘we can’t be together, but i’m drawn to you, but let’s be together, but no we can’t but-’ puke - THE FUCKING CONSTANT SLO-MO SCENES. we get it!!! like there’s slo-mo where there’s absolutely not necessary 70% of the time and it just looks awkward. one scene had them talking in slo-mo like? stop - the plot feels so half-finished and episode by episode messy? like sometimes certain secondary characters are super important for vague reasons and then we never see them again and i still haven’t understood why they were important (the brunette woman who killed herself in the bath? what... did she bring? i understand nothing). you couldn’t get me to understand what angelica’s purpose is if you paid me. - there were scenes that genuinely affected me emotionally, but i also feel like there are too many scenes where they’re too heavy handed with the angst and just try to manipulate the audience. like i cried when will’s dad died, but that was bc they had done a good job of establishing their father/son bond before that, not because of the forced flashbacks/slo-mo (again!!!)/song they crammed in to make people SUPER sad ‘bout it. - and last: i feel like they haven’t done a proper job in establishing connections between some characters so i can’t really be affected by the ‘~we are one cluster, we are all connected’ aspect of it. have wolfgang and capheus actually ever talked??
