BEING A LIST OF THE THIRTEEN GREATEST RIVERDALE LINES, ON THE OCCASION OF THAT SHOW'S TERMINATION

As our much loved/hated show comes to an end, I feel compelled to record, for posterity, the greatest thirteen pieces of dialogue to spring from the pens of RAS and his henchmen. It was, of course, originally a top ten list, but I simply could not exclude a few of these treasures. Without further ado: 

13. 

“I dropped out in the 4th grade, to sell drugs, to support my nana.” 

“That means you haven't known the triumphs and defeats, the epic highs and lows of high school football.” 

Spoken by: an inmate of Leopold and Loeb Juvenile Detention Center, and Archie Andrews. 

In: 3 x 2 

Yeah, okay, this one had to be on the list. It’s funny, I’ll admit. It’s a great example of the overwrought semi-sincere melodrama that helped make this show so special. It’s low on the list largely because The Normies got their hands on it, so every time I hear someone make a reference I get all “do not cite the deep magic to me, witch.” 

12. 

“No! No! What are we supposed to do now? I’m horny as heck!”

Spoken by: Archie Andrews 

In: 7 x 16

Season 7 is undeniably dreadful, and yet there are diamonds in the rough. The occasion is the failure of a projector, just as Archie and Reggie prepare to watch a pornographic film. The utter desperation with which KJ Apa delivers this line is exquisite. One is made to feel they are witnessing a genuine tragedy. 

11. 

“Tonight, they’re making an exception and debuting a cover of the song my parents claim they were listening to the night Jason and I were conceived.” 

Spoken by: Cheryl Blossom. 

In: 1 x 1 

Really a fantastic line. A wonderful encapsulation of the casual absurdity of Cheryl’s character, and a foretaste of the lunacy we would plumb in later episodes and seasons. 

10. 

“In case you haven’t noticed, I’m weird. I’m a weirdo. I don’t fit in and I don’t want to fit in. Have you ever seen me without this stupid hat on? That’s weird.” 

Spoken by: Jughead Jones

In: 1 x 10

A genuine classic. “High school football” before “high school football.” One is never entirely sure just how sincere the line is meant to be, both on a meta-level and in-universe. A perfect illumination of Jughead’s pretentiousness. It is made all the better by the occasional cuts to Lili Reinhard’s agonized face. 

9. 

“At the last dance, multiple students were murdered.” 

Spoken by: Principal Holden Honey. 

In: 4 x 2

Delivered as an explanation to Toni and Cheryl, as to why there would be no school dance this year. Principal Honey is in fact supremely rational in the cancellation of this dance. This being Riverdale, he is of course treated as an unreasonable tyrant. 

8. 

“Bro, I know all the secrets of this universe.” 

Spoken by: Archie Andrews (evil version)

In: 6 x 5 

Spoken as evil Archie reveals his evil plan to keep the parallel universes apart. KJ Apa’s delivery once again makes this line. He is comically sinister. Strangely, he sells it. 

7. 

“A Vughead kiss, right now, in the present might be precisely what it takes to save a future Bughead from imploding.” 

Spoken by: Jughead Jones. 

In: 2 x 14

One of those lines that both makes me laugh and makes me genuinely angry. This was a fairly early season, and this may have actually been the first line to get me asking, ‘did they genuinely write and deliver that?’ Extra points for use of the atrocious ‘Vughead’ portmanteau ship name rather than ‘Jeronica.’ 

6. 

“I’m the ultimate wild card. I am the daughter of The Black Hood. The nightmare from next door. I’m training with the FBI and I’m coming for you, you psycho bitch.” 

Spoken by: Betty Cooper

In: 4 x 14 

Just delicious. Another one of those lines that leaves you somewhat unsure whether or not the writers understood how genuinely hysterical it was. “The Nightmare from Next Door” sounds like an announcer hyping up a wrestler. Spoken with a raw sincerity by Lili Reinhart. Also points for the heavy homoeroticism between Betty and Donna. 

5. 

“For I am Cheryl Blossom, Queen of the Bees.” 

Spoken by: Cheryl Blossom.

In: 5 x 16. 

This one really doesn’t require any elaboration. 

4. 

“Elijah ascended…and I will, too.” 

Spoken by: Edgar Evernever.

In: 4 x 5. 

Admittedly, this one is only spectacular with context. But in context—the context being that Chad Michael Murray delivers this line while dressed like Evel Knievel and standing in a cartoon rocket right out of a Warner Bros cartoon—it becomes utterly magnificent. 

3. 

“It’s not queer baiting, it’s saving the world.” 

Spoken by: Veronica Lodge. 

In: 6 x 22. 

It’s actually hard for me to decide whether this one is funnier with or without context. Without context it’s wonderful, but it possibly becomes even funnier when you know that the context is that Veronica needs to kiss Cheryl to transfer superpowers into her body so she can turn into a Scarlet Witch knock-off and stop a magic comet summoned by Sephiroth an English wizard who is also the Devil. 

2. 

“If there’s no wedding reception, it means the Gargoyle King has won.” 

Spoken by: Kevin Keller. 

In: 3 x 12.

One of my personal favorites. This is a perfect line because like #3, it requires no real elaboration. There is absolutely no context in which it isn’t hysterical. 

1 .

“Word of my exploits serving Nick his comeuppance has seeped into the demimonde of mobsters and molls my father used to associate with, so the five families are sending their youngest and brightest, their ‘princes,’ as it were to, well, come court the rare Mafia Princess who can belly up to the bar with the big boys.

Spoken by: Veronica Lodge. 

In: 2 x 20. 

This is, in my opinion, the all-timer. Every word is perfect. The rapid-fire alliteration. The use of the word ‘demimonde.’ The entirely unnecessary addition of ‘as it were.’ This is borderline Dr. Seuss. The fact that Camila Mendes delivered it without cracking a smile should have won her an Emmy. No. An Oscar. This line is Riverdale. 

[transmascaraa]

Ooh how about Lyney, Scara, and Wrio finding out their s/o is ticklish?👀

multiple characters headcannons!

they find out that you're ticklish...

characters: lyney, wanderer, wriothesley x gn!reader

author's note: I LOVEEE THE IDEA. ANON I HOPE YOU LIKE THIS LITTLE THING I MAKE💕

✯ Lyney

-don't even get me started on him.........

-he would find out you're ticklish by moving his fingers over your body while cuddling at night.

-as soon as he realizes it, good luck.

-he'll have tickle fights with you due to him being EXTREMELY ticklish too.

-and when you're angry at him? you don't wanna talk to him? you don't wanna listen to him? i'm sorry for you.

-he's about to become a tickle monster until you forgive him because he ate all of the leftover candy from halloween.

-your only way to defend yourself is either by tickling him too much in return, which is rare because he's too persistent and stubborn, but you can also just say something to tease him aka make him blush.

-he'll instead be too flustered for anything.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

☆ Wanderer

-uhhhh he doesn't think much of it at first. like not at all. AT ALL.

-he just thinks you're weird. too sensitive, too weak.

-so he sometimes mentions it to tease you, but doesn't actually do it.

-he's not ticklish himself, so he doesn't get it at all. i mean, how can you expect a porcelain puppet to be ticklish???

-but that one time...

-when you ignored him for the whole day, driving him crazy on purpose, he thought about something.

-would you talk to him if he made you laugh, but by tickling?

-he tried to do so, and you both ended up having a one-sided tickle fight.

-you wish you could just punch him...

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

✷ Wriothesley

-another total tease about it. you're not getting a day without a tickle fight with him now.

-he's a bit ticklish himself, but not all that much. but you were more ticklish than him, so...

-he used it.

-you didn't talk to him for 2 minutes and 48 seconds? tickle.

-you didn't reply to his message? tickle.

-you made him jealous? tickle.

-for anything, he's about to start tickling you. just to let you know that you can't be mad at him forever.

-you know you can't.

-it's just impossible.

-it's wriothesley, not anyone.

-well, now you know damn well to not mess up anything...

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

i like it cuz it's not that bad

i love them except for wriothesley

well i don't hate him i just don't get that much hype from him

idk

hope you like it<3

[thestarfishinjootsoffice]

Just saw that your reqs are open again :0. I have a funny idea. Slashers x Child reader who is overly sarcastic

I have like 6 requests I need to finish them rn omg

Slashers with overly sarcastic child reader!

Michael

Finds it amusing, he doesn't find that many children like that.

After you say a sardonic comment for the 50th time he's just standing there like 'yup, that's my child right there'.

Loves it, but doesn't like it when you use it against him or at him. grandpapa comes up with the lecturing like, 'don't speak in that tone to me young child, when I was your age-' telepathically. You can basically feel his harsh glare.

He's secretly hyping you up whenever you say your sarcastic remarks to someone, he's just there. You don't know it yet.

Sinclair brothers

Bo is just smirking proudly, he's standing behind you with his arms crossed and his legs wide apart (why this kinda hot) hearing you use your sharp words at someone. Similar reaction as Michael if you use it against him but more of a 'wtf did I do wrong' reaction but will get annoyed later on if you keep it up, will probably scream "STOP GIVING ME THAT ATTITUDE Y/N." but you know he won't lay bad hands on you though. Won't stop you if you say sum' to someone, he may not know it but he's so like you.

Vincent is more of a 'y/n, why would you talk like that?' wonders if something is bothering you because bo gets sarcastic too when something irritates him. If you tell him you aren't and are just always like this in your own way he would just be relieved, actually finds it funny. He was sitting on the couch and then you and bo came inside and were screaming at each other (playfully) about something and he just tries to hold in his laugh because it's funny seeing his hotheaded twin argue with a child. Pretty okay with it as long as you don't act mean to him or else he's just gonna pick you by your shirt and plop you out of the basement for about 2 days as punishment.

At first Lester was like 'are you angry me at me :(?'. But then learned it was your normal behaviour and got chill with it, I mean it's not like he can't handle two sarcastic angy kids. He has his hand over his mouth and thinks 'slay' or just yells "BUURRNN" when you show that girl/boy/bad boss attitude to someone. Feels really hurt when you become sarcastic towards him though. In short, he's supportive and sometimes you defend him against people. 💀

Hannibal

Smiles and chuckles a bit at your behaviour. Stops you if you're doing it bit too much.

Does a quick 180 🤨 if you start giving him that attitude. And scolds and lectures.

Encourages this though if it's against anyone who speaks ill about you. Has no problem standing up for you but would love it if you could stand up for yourself <3.

If some random person comes up to him and tells him to teach his child some better manners he'll pick you up and hold you and let's you do your silly little magic words.

Chaos, yep.

Later tells his mental bf about what you did and says "omg did you see what they said? It was so cool" and close to tears. "no I wasn't with you" the mental bf replies and maybe ruins the atmosphere.

Billy n Stu

They'll literally record you and basically shoves a camera up to your face and stu squeals at how cool you sound, Billy looks calm but inside he's like "omfg this kid is bad ass"

And then shows it to their friends while you're getting really embarrassed because you're right in front of them.

This ends up in you saying ironical things at every question they ask you just to piss them off.

Which then ends in Billy telling you 'do not speak to your parents like that 🤬' and do you stop? No. But do they stop showing you off to their friends? No. But it all works out anyway because that's the kinda relationship you three have.

[thesecretstudentgardener]

Okay, so I just finished reading the Shatter me series and have some thoughts.

It was, without a doubt, one of the most memorable reads I’ve had this year. I would like to say that I read the first three books when they were out, before the last were written, and only recently found out, hence the finishing of six books in 2 days.

It was a ride.

1. I understand Aaron Warner’s hype, I really do, but there is so much more to the story than his consistent and devoted love for Juliette/Ella. Personally, I would have loved to see the other kids of the Leaders discuss their pov on the matter. We know they were practically raised together and every time they were re-introduced, they were drawn to each other. Great. I want a scene where the two are still practically toddlers. Did Aaron even care about the other kids, or just her? He says he doesn’t consider the other kids his friends. Is that because he only ever considered Ella his one friend/ or because his history with her as children is so tied up with the other kids, that he doesn’t remember a time when he wanted to be around them? I want to know more about their history, not just the moments of ‘hello, I’m Aaron, you look pretty’, every few years.

2. Adam. He gets a lot of hate for his treatment of Juliette and his act of trying to save James by submitting to his father. I get it. But also, unlike Aaron, who only ever had himself and his heart to protect, Adam has a child who relies on him to be safe and fed and alive. He put his trust in Omega Point and if James hadn’t wanted to help, Adam would have had to walk through the rubble of the underground compound hoping but knowing James hadn’t made it. His one person who needed him to survive almost didn’t because Adam trusted someone besides himself. We see, after that moment, that James becomes his one and only priority. He kicks Juliette out bc Aaron, the person he worked for and was almost killed by, was in his home, near his brother, asking him to trust him. Asking him to trust Juliette. Who was the only reason he had ended up at Omega Point with James. I’d be scared and angry, too. He knew he was most likely giving up his life when he asked Anderson for immunity. But he did it, knowing there was barely even a chance for James to be safe and alive. I can’t hate him, because after the second book, the only thing he cared about was James. He didn’t want to fight and risk he or James dying. If he died, James was in his own. He did what he felt he had to.

3. The other kids. Simply, I just wanted more of them. According to the memories we are given, they were all friends, and were all getting their memories back. They were all victims of their parents. I understand why it had been Emmaline and Ella who were the ones to end it for all. But I wish we had had a moment where the kids, as a group and the further leaders, made the decision to start over. To take back the life and world their parents took from them. Nazeera and Aaron are the only kids that actually, genuinely get to fight back. The others are almost immediately immobilized for later use. It would have been a fitting end for the kids that had no say in their own lives and memories to choose the fate of those who took it from them.

4. I did love that both Ella and Emmaline each got to kill a parent their own way. Ella, through sheer force of strength, and Emma, through force of will. That was the perfect ending for them.

OP characters as besties p.2

p.1 | p.2 | p.3 | p.4 | p.5

characters: Zoro, Chopper, Nami

warnings: none

notes: all platonic hc's

Zoro

you train together

nap together

drink together

and antagonize that perverted cook together

the two of you are always competing to see who's stronger

Zoro wins every time

but you say he actually lost because you're way cooler

how are you cooler?

because you can walk in a straight line and not get lost

a short fight follows your teasing

you two share one brain cell

and somehow he ended up pawning it off to Nami because he owed her money

which means no matter how hard you try

your plans always lack common sense

you jump right into the most drastic option

without a second thought

though, there's hardly ever a first thought

(like Zoro's big plan when facing Mr. 3)

Zoro isn't a particularly friendly-looking person

so when you're walking around on a new island

either everyone approaches you

or you use him for Scary Dog Privileges™

you try to make him carry the things you buy

and sometimes he will

but most of the time he refuses to

if you trick him into carrying your stuff

he's gonna be real angry

which makes him look even scarier

and means you can walk around with no interruptions

he's got your back

and you've got his

7/10 

he pushes you to be better, to be stronger

but will 100% get lost and blame it on you

Chopper

if you want to learn about medicine

he will explain it to you in the easiest way to understand

he loves to sleep on your lap

and thinks you're so cool

fusses at you if you train too hard

or if you get seriously injured

doesn't like it if you pull too many pranks on him

(like jumping out of a closet wearing a scary mask)

but will forgive you if you shower him in compliments

if he sees something that he thinks you'll like

he'll get it for you if he can

you two have long talks about his past 

he tells you all about living on Drum Island

and Doctorine

and Doctor Hiriluk

when you play hide and seek

he always loses

but if you play tag

he always wins

shares his food with you

possibly the best at being a hype-man

he just compliments you in the sweetest ways without meaning to 

like an offhanded remark about how you smell the best

or that he couldn't have imagined a best friend as amazing as you

if you call him a raccoon

at first, he'll be confused

huh, what do you mean y/n? did you hit your head?

but if you continue to refer to him as one

he'll yell at you

I'm a reindeer! a reindeer, damn it!

10/10

reliable and sweet

but won't go with you through a haunted house

Nami

charges you a million berries before letting you take on the title as her best friend

it's a revered position

and she can't have just anyone claiming that spot

she won't charge you any interest on the payment though

(that's the perk of being her bestie)

okay but when you two go shopping together

she always manages to talk down the price

definitely the best person to spend money with

Nami enjoys a more luxurious lifestyle

so expect to be dining and shopping in high-priced areas

your poor wallet would be empty after an hour

Sanji makes you and Nami and Robin only the finest of treats

either the cook is absolutely devastated by how close you are with Nami

or he worships you just as much

Nami doesn't let anyone scam you or harm you

there's no pulling any fast ones over on her

which means you're also immune

she will get annoyed if you contribute to a mess that she has to clean up

but she can't stay mad at you

teaches you about navigation

it's her life's passion

so you pick up a lot of tips and tricks on how to accurately gauge the weather

and how to properly chart a topographical map of islands

you also learn how to take care of the tangerines from her home

she's fiesty

but she does care

so if you get into a spot of trouble

she'll be right there to help you out

8/10

loyal and smart

but will give you a bill at the end of the month for eating her tangerines

Dragon Ball Super 092

Tonight’s episode: Buu’s fucking passed out.

But first, an important update on Universe 11′s General Kharseral.  Did he save that cat from earlier? Yes, he did.  Now the Pride Troopers can assemble for the tournament. 

Meanwhile, in Universe 3, we get a peek at some of the fighters on their team, but so what?  We’ll see them in action when the tournament starts.  This is what I mean when I complain about the 3rd quarter of Dragon Ball Super.  Episodes 68-96 are just marking time, hyping up the Tournament of Power without actually giving us the Tournament of Power.  And some of these episodes have been good, sure, but a lot of the material is redundant. 

Meanwhile, back in U7, Master Roshi believes that he has de-hornified himself.  That’s Puar over there, by the way.  I pity him.

All right, let’s talk about Caulifla going Super Saiyan.  In Universe 6, Cabba demonstrates the transformation for her, but he isn’t sure how to teach it, so he tries calling her names in an attempt to make her angry, the way Vegeta did.  The problem is that the U6 Saiyans are way too polite for that, and Cabba sucks at even pretending to be rude.  So Caulifla asks him what he does to transform, since it’s not like he’s pissed off every time he does it, and Cabba explains that he tenses up his back to concentrate power there.  Caulifla does the same et voilà.

A lot of fans (and I use the term loosely) complained about this episode for cheapening the Super Saiyan transformation.  They objected to a newbie like Caulifla being able to do it so easily, and without “earning” the moment through a long, arduous character arc like Goku or Gohan.  I’ve made my thoughts known in the past, but let me be clear:

1) Fuck all haters.

2) Caulifla is an antagonist, not a protagonist.  She’s not a bad guy, but she is one of the fighters Goku’s team has to beat in order to survive.  The idea here is that the Saiyans of Universe 6 are making incredible gains in a very short span of time, which means they could become a serious threat to U7′s chances. 

3) Fuck all haters. 

So now that Caulifla has the general hang of it, she calls out Kale, another Saiyan who’s part of her gang.  Cabba didn’t know Kale had followed them, but Caulifla knew she was lurking around somewhere.  The dub has Caulifla refer to Kale as her “sister-in-arms”, which is sort of like being “cousins” in Sailor Moon.

Anyway, Caulifla wants Kale to learn this transformation too, which I’m sure won’t lead to any trouble later...

Back to Universe 7, and Goku cannot get Buu to wake up.  I’m pleased with how they explain Buu’s sleeping in this episode, because back in DBZ, Majin Buu took a nap and he woke up two seconds later.  But Mr. Satan says that sometimes Buu will sack out for two months, and nothing can wake him.    Well, we’ve seen some middle ground, though.  He slept through the Destroyer Tournament, but woke up by the time it was over.  And he fell asleep at the Zeno Explo, but Mr. Satan was able to wake him then.  So yeah, I’m not sure how it works, but at least they acknowledged that Buu used to sleep for two seconds. 

Anyway, Goku returns to announce that Buu’s off the team, but everyone’s mad at him because they all found out that there’s no prize money and their universe gets erased if they lose.  Krillin tries to pull out of the event...

... until Beerus threatens to destroy him unless he fights. See, this is what I’m talking about.  These pre-Tournament of Power episodes try to squeeze as much drama as they can out of the whole erasing of universes thing, but it all amounts to nothing.  Gohan was horrified when he found out, and warned Goku not to tell anyone else, but everyone found out anyway.  Then they got all mad at Goku for not telling them, but what difference does it make?  They still have to go.  Forget Beerus’ ultimatum, if Krillin sits this one out and they lose, then he still gets erased. 

The same goes for all the gods wringing their hands over the whole thing.  At least the mortal characters can do something about it, but the gods are helpless, so all of their scenes are a waste of time.  And the mortals’ scenes are kind of pointless too, because their agency really only comes into play when the event starts.  Until then, they’re just waiting anxiously.

Okay, so they still have nine fighters, but what about the tenth?  Beerus whines about how Earth is the only planet in this universe with any competent warriors, and he blames Goku and the others for wiping out all the other warriors like the Frieza Force, and that gives Goku an idea: Recruit Frieza.

Yeah, no one likes that idea very much.

Favorite Final Fantasy Music (FFXIV - Stormblood)

I don't think the copypasta has reached Stormblood yet BUT ANYWAYS 2ND EXPANSION LET'S DO ITTTTTT! This is when I started playing XIV! Lots of fond memories of TP (0 fond memories of TP). Something Stormbloood does, very similar to XIII, is the main motif. That shit is EVERYWHERE. And luckily, it's Amazing, so I literally am not complaining about hearing it all the time (spot #1 on this list goes to the stormblood quest accepted tune).

Something I will preface with is a lot of the music I love here is in the Omegascape raids but it's all (mostly) remixes! I love all of those songs but it would be doing this soundtrack a disservice to put any of them in this list (That Dancing Mad version is fucking dope though)

5. Crimson Sunrise Easily my second favorite main city theme. I feel like I can't say much about the melody, cause it is The Stormblood Motif and I'm probably gonna say some more about it later down the list, but I will say I love the instruments used here. The flute and plucking (I think it's a shamisen) is really calming, and the slow tempo of the drums (taiko?) add to this, while also giving that grand nature befitting of a huge city.

4. Dangertek Completely different vibe from the last song. This was originally introduced in PvP, but I more commonly experience it in treasure maps. It's an absolutely banger techno remix of Hard to Kill, the FATE Boss theme, and it's my favorite version of the two. The melody is sick, the guitar playing it rocks, and that heavy beat is a bop. I also really love the interlude section that I can only describe with the BADADUNBADADUNBADADUN noise going back into the Hard to Kill riff again but from a distance, it's so coollllllll I love this song

3. Triumph Part 2 of The Stormblood Motif; but I think this version is the most stand out example. This also includes the Ala Mhigo anthem for an epic combination of both sides of the expansion, a lot of eastern instruments included. I love the start of this song with the japanese flute and the more middle eastern sounding guitar (I have learned that this is called an Oud!) again, showing that combination of two ends. The Ala Mhigo anthem played by the brass builds up the intensity of the song, and then The Stormblood Motif rockets it into pure hype. It's so hard not to sing along to it every time it plays! The finale of this song sounds like a spiral wind down while still keeping the energy. It's impossible to hate any dungeons in this expansion when you know you're gonna hear this at the end. (STORM OF BLOOD, BORN FROM BLOOD, OF OUR FALLEN BROTHERRRRRSSSS! BORN UPON OUR HANDS, CRADLED IN OUR ARMS, SWELLING IN OUR HEAAAAAARTS! RAISE YOUR WEARY HEAD, HEED THE CALL TO ARMS, RINGING IN YOUR HEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAART!!!!)

2. Amatsu Kaze Bringing in that classic Primals rock to this list in my favorite way, Amatsu Kaze is a song I literally liked so much I learned to sing to it despite not knowing Japanese (I'm sure my pronunciation is horrible don't worry I keep it private). That fucking bass at the start is legendary, not to mention the electric strumming and the strange vibraphone like pongs creating a super unique sound. It's not a very high speed intense rush song, but that slower deliberate nature is perfect for Byakko being this massive brutal creature. To the main meat of the song, I love how it's the first lyrical song in XIV to be in Japanese! I mean, like, I don't see why they wouldn't cause it literally takes place in the Far East, but I still love it. The verse sounds like he's holding in his anger, the refrain getting more angry, and then finally screaming in the chorus (I looked up music words for this I hope I'm using them right). The very end of the song before the loop sounds like an absolutely mindless rage, looping and spiraling before calming down once more. What else is really cool about the lyrics is it's actually telling Byakko and Tenzen's story (also shoutouts to the XI reference let's goooo), which the next of the Four Lords' song also does. This song is addictive to listen to, only getting more hype as it continues. In the Primals version, it even has Yoshi-P singing it which is fucking outstanding. (KAZE TODOROKE KAZE TODOROKE KAZE TODOROKEEEEEEEEEE)

1. The Worm's Tail COME DON THE MASK OF BLIND BETRAYAL E'ER DOES THE HEAD DEVOUR ITS TAIL AS IRON BENDS TO STEEL O'ER MY RIVALS I PREVAIL! This song has a beginning so fucking epic, they use it twice in the game (granted the second time was a medley BUT UHH SHUT UP). The Worm's Tail is my favorite final boss theme out of all of the XIV expansions. As you can probably tell, I fucking love that intro. The massive choir setting the stage as you fly into the heavens on a giant fucking dragon that you're literally trying to kill, the drums slamming to raise the song further, I hate using this word so much, but it's fuckin epic! The final note brings tears to my eyes. When the song actually starts, it goes into this really really cool melody that's very bouncy and I THINK it's waltz like? please feel free to correct me on this I need to expand my words but I hope you get what I mean. It's a very unique rhythm. I love the middle part between it looping, continuing to raise the song even higher, almost like that audio illusion that keeps going up despite not actually going up? It gives that illusion of height as it should. The entire way through, the orchestra continues to sound heavy and grand even during the "calmer" parts, which for the size of this fight and Shinryu himself, I think is perfect. Finally, we reach The Stormblood Motif Part 3. The finale of this expansion HAS to fucking have it. The melody itself already sounds uplifting, it already stokes the fires in your heart. Combine it with the sound of this song and the context of the fight, and it brings it to the highest level it could possibly go. Last thoughts, cause I couldn't put them anywhere else, but while the base version is mainly gibberish vocals, the official orchestral version actually adds lyrics (same with Ultima and Heroes), and this song is essentially sung By Zenos. It talks of rising above, it talks about being the beginning and the end, and it's even partly sung in latin, befitting the Garlean Empire. The entire song is Zenos's victory chant against you, but you almost combat him equally with Storm of Blood overtaking the entire song. It's fuckin poetic, man.

Honorable mentions are: Prelude - Long March Home, Heroes of Stormblood, Gates of the Moon, Beauty's Wicked Wiles, Answer on High, Wayward Daughter, eScape, Sunset, Sunrise, and From the Dragon's Wake. (and again like every song in Omegascape and Return to Ivalice (those songs are just straight ports but tactics music fucks))

Thing I would change in vol.2

in order

The scene where Vickie kisses her boyfriend doesn't exist because what was the point of having it there if not to make Robin suffer? it didn't further the plot, didn't further her character, it was there just to give us a bit of queer pain for nothing.

During the hug between him and Jonathan, Will says something that is undoubtedly queer (not necessarily "I'm gay", but even just a referce to him having a crush on Mike so The Straights can't interpret his feelings as something else) because the discussion of Will's sexuality was hyped up a lot and what we got was underwhelming.

Steve gives Eddie a talk about how he isn't a coward for running away because what he did was all for survival instinct, but when he was actually given the choice to stay safely behind (at the lake and once they got back to Hawkins) he still chose to follow his friends into danger to help them knowing the risk.

Murray dies. I feel like someone from the Russia plot has to but it obviously isn't going to be Hopper, since he's just come back from the dead, or Joyce, since the Byers have already lost so much. Murray is just right because he's not a main character, but he's also not a background one.

No Steve/Nancy talk because in my version for season 4 the writers never tried to make Steve and Nancy get back together.

Jason goes to Eddie's trailer instead of the Creel House and there he finds the portal to the Upside Down while Eddie is playing, so he gets in and Dustin explains everything. Even if he's confused, he understands the situation and believes them (considering he's literally in another dimension about to get attacked by demobats and it's clear that Hellfire isn't leading them but actually fighting them). He sticks with them to help them fight.

The demobats are attacking the trailer but at one point they stop abruptly and we see that they are heading towards the Creel house to kill Nancy, Steve and Robin, so, after making sure Dustin is safe in the normal world and cutting the rope, Eddie and Jason run to distract he demobats again. They get followed but keep running until they can, but at one point they reach a dead end and have no other choice but fight. Jason is dying after fighting alongside Eddie, while he's bleeding out he apologises for being a dick, accusing him of murder, and sending an angry mob after him. His last words are 《I'll tell Chrissy you said "hi".》

Therefore, yea, Eddie also doesn't die. by now we've understood the trend of killing off all the new characters, do something different. how do they handle him being wanted by the whole town? I don't know. maybe they hide him in Hopper's cabin like they did with Eleven in seasons 2 and 3, maybe Jason said something to his friends after finding out the truth, maybe he clears his name in season 5, maybe they help him leave the town.

Max dies because this time Vecna knows about the music thing and makes sure she can't save herself again. she and isn't brought back to life and dies in Lucas' arms while the portals open. The reason for this is that I feel like so far all the main characters have had huge plot armor and killing one would really raise the stakes, make it clear that from now on everyone is in real danger.

Also to raise the stakes, I feel like one between Nancy, Robin and Steve should die but honestly I don't know, I'm not sure (obviously not Robin, one of the only canon queer characters, and I do think the Duffers want to keep Steve's death for season 5, so maybe Nancy? not sure though, so this is just an idea, not necessarily something I'd for sure change)

Antonov doesn't follow the others to America, he goes back to his family so they can all move somewhere safer with Yuri's help.

Nancy and Jonathan have a serious talk and Jonathan tells her the truth about the college letters. they understand that them going to college together isn't going to work, so they break up, but Nancy still tells Jonathan to not stay stuck to his family forever, but to go to NYU instead (y'know, NYU, literally Jonathan's dream school since he was six, as is mentioned in season 1?). after season 5 we learn that they got back together after they were both done with college and being a journalistic power couple and are as strong as ever, and the break up helped the grow individually.

no time skip at the end of the season because I don't really see how it could work out with the finale. also, every other season has had a time skip of some months, and it would be nice if, for once, two seasons happend in direct sequence. I do understand that they are doing it for the actors' ages, but also, I don't care.

this is it, I think.

Subject 2???

I know this is kind of a bad time to post this since all the Layton hype is about the new game, but I’ve remembered a little theory about something from one of the older games and one of the newer ones. I only replayed these games mentioned a few months ago, though, so I might have forgotten some stuff.

quick backstory for those who may have forgotten about the subjects: In unwound future there was that one rude rabbit guy named Subject 3, and he talked about being an experiment from Dimitri’s lab and stuff. He later lets us know that this parrot guy that Luke found earlier on in the game is actually Subject 1, another experiment. 

So now to the part where you can start picking up where I’m going: Layton Mystery Journey. I also replayed LMJ right after I replayed UF, and LMJ’s first “mystery” introduced is Sherl: a talking dog. He mentions that he doesn’t know who he is, who he’s from, who his parents are, etc. Now, being the very nice and helpful girl that she is, Katrielle helps Sherl figure out who he is... not. I’m very angry that neither the game nor the anime say anything about where Sherl’s from and just pass him off as this goofy little assistant to Katrielle and not an actual client.

So now to the main part. What if Sherl was actually Subject 2? This was originally kind of just a joke theory, but I find the fact that he can actually talk to some people in English kind of odd.

.....or maybe it’s just Beasley or someone else. Who knows!

[blueskiesandstarrynights]

Don't think I'm too late on the hype train, so here are my thoughts and analysis of the first look pics-

2-3-4, a trio that I cannot wait to see in s3. Absolutely love Diego's outfit btw. Got ourselves a new setting, perhaps Hotel Oblivion? Kinda looks like they're judging something tbh

This looks like the same setting as the prev pic (notice the blue pillars behind the sparrows and our 2-3-4 trio) Perhaps a face off in hotel Oblivion? Also, I noticed Chris is red now, which could mean he changes color has he pleases, he's a mood ring and red just means angry/pissed off, or something else, who knows?

Oh my god. just. so much to unpack here. Why is he dressed like that. Why is he sitting like that. Why is he marking up a map of Pennsylvania. What is taking up a good part of the left side of the picture. Assuming they're staying in this timeline for an extended period of time (ie not just a week like five is used to) then I get he would need other clothes besides the suit, but why that. that just. doesn't feel like his style? idk.

marcus beloved. hi. Where are you? I'm vaguely getting academy vibes, but I'm not really sure tbh.

All three look incredible first of all. What is Sloane holding? I thought her ability was gravity manipulation, and I suppose it can be visualized, but why a white ball? idk this pic is creating doubts. also, I notice on the edge the picture is kinda darker, in a way movies usually do for like someone having a vision I think? esp since it looks like ben is looking directly at the camera. But I don't think any brellies have vision powers? but idk maybe we're getting upgrades

Oh hey new kid! That def looks like a hotel check in desk, so I'm definitely saying this is Hotel Oblivion, esp with those blue pillars in the background. I wonder if he's a guest there, and conspiracy theory time, maybe the hotel prevents its guests from aging so they spend forever there, so that kids is actually a lot older than he looks (kinda like five)

Lila. Sweetie. Why are you standing like that. You look like you're posing. No one naturally stands like that. Also what is that in your hand. It's not a cigarette or a pen, so what is it? Also, shout out to the store in the background just named CashMoney.

Not much to say here. The two of them look incredible, but we are still in hotel oblivion and they're kinda just standing there. But ig we can tell we'll be spending a lot of time there this season sooo

I love this so much. They're still in their season 2 outfits, so def a first ep pic. But I'm staring at this slightly confused bc for some reason the decor and set up gives me Academy vibes? Also this is a perfect meme template. Let five get some rest pls. He's probably not going to get much anyways, let him get as much as he can. I'm staring at that wallpaper and all I can think of is the gazelle quote and I want to hear it this season so bad pls tua.

Oh my god the height difference. Epitome of big brother, little brother. Also what is that in the sky. That does not look like the moon. what is that.

Don't rb this ver, other three images and thoughts in rb.

Day Fourteen

Well. Today was a lot, but most of it was good. 

It’s spirit day, so nearly everyone showed up decked out in school colors- plus glitter, face paint, fun accessories- and it was really cool to see that school pride coming out again. Today’s schedule went like this: 50-minute classes, followed by fun times in advisory (my students played ultimate frisbee and kickball against Mr. N’s students) and a cookout lunch, and then a pep rally to end the day. 

I did get an angry parent email first thing in the morning, but I genuinely have no idea what I did to warrant it. So I was very confused. The Principal, who was CCed, said he would handle it. I just had to shake it off and get on with teaching. So I taught a rocking lesson about the Articles of Confederation in APUSGOV (yes, I’m enough of a wizard to make the Articles of Confederation rock), and I was ready to hype up my World students for their first vocab quiz, buuuuut then the fire alarm went off during the bell change. 

Obviously, that was not planned, and I think everyone who was at the high school last year- as a student or staff member- thought, “Not this again...” At least this year we’re not understaffed and our security technology’s been upgraded, so our admins were immediately able to pull footage from the surveillance cameras in the halls, see who was going into the bathrooms (it’s vaping in the bathrooms that’s the issue), and figure out who was responsible. 

But it did take a while for the fire department to give us the all-clear to go back into the building, so Block 2 only ended up being about twenty minutes. I told my students I’d postpone the quiz until Monday, no big deal. They read their books and worked on other things instead. My Block 3 students took the quiz, though, and smashed it, which I loved to see.

And everything was good after that. I liked getting outside with my advisory, and I won’t ever complain about a free lunch. And the pep rally was a ball. The students really kept it positive, and they behaved so well compared to how they’d behaved last spring- what a difference time, assigned seating, and clear expectations make, eh?- so it was actually enjoyable. Our band and drum line were amazing, the student council put on some fun games for class competitions (alas, I got knocked out of musical chairs embarrassingly early, but the seniors still cheered for me), we hyped up our sports teams... 

And the football team won the Homecoming game tonight!

D-2 | Agust D

So yeah, this is the thing that started it all. One of my friends wanted to know what my thoughts were on this album since we both like him, and so I ended up writing them all out in this half organized mostly chaotic mess kind of way. I hope you enjoy! I’ve modified the review from the initial version for better readability.

Note: those songs with asterisks are among my favourite songs on that album, and a double asterisk means it is my top favourite from the album. Songs are rated out of 10 and are affected by how much I enjoyed each aspect (vocal delivery, rap delivery, composition/instrumentation, concept delivery through music, vibes). For this reason, the ratings are 100% biased and aren’t meant to be an objective reflection of the artistry that goes into a song, simply my thoughts, likes, and dislikes.

...

In comparison to AGUST D, I feel like Yoongi has really come into his own sound with this mixtape! AGUST D was rough and unpolished in what I feel was a good move considering the topics he was discussing, the time in which he was writing (before they’d really taken off, particularly in Korea), and the head space he was in (it’s hard to believe that it really came out in like... 2016). But this new mixtape has elements of his polished style. It’s still very much an angry Yoongi mixtape, but you can really feel the ways in which he’s grown as a person and as an artist.

Moonlight (저 달): This song I really like the vibe of, like that groovy kind of surreal feeling of sitting on your bed in the dark at 3 am and listening to this song like oof. The lyrics really hit you in the face a bit. I’ve always appreciated how honest he is in his music, and how he uses it to release his thoughts and worries and “speak his truth” I guess, and I think he does that really well here. Like “change is necessary for everyone, how we change might be our karma (purpose?)” or “I wrote verse 1 fucking fast, but verse 2 won’t write itself no matter how hard I rack my brain”???? as a writer in theory. yeah. I felt that so hard jfksjflsjflk.  I really think this is a brilliant way to open his mixtape. 8.5/10.

*Daechwita (대취타): This song is so fun, and so AGUST D. I get so hype for this song!!! It is absolutely 100% necessary that I head bang to this song every time I listen to it. It’s on my playlist for songs I listen to if I need to write action/fight scenes now. I automatically hear it in the background as part of the soundtrack when I think out daydreams with fight scenes, it’s just that badass, what a vibe. 9/10.

What Do You Think? (어떻게 생각해): This song is literally so catchy. It’s a pretty standard diss track in terms of the lyrics for him, but my favourite part of this song is definitely the beat. (side note: I don’t listen to the old version because I don’t think it was right to put Jim Jones on there, but apparently that wasn’t even Yoongi who put it on in the first place? Or idk there are so many conflicting bits of info idk what’s correct or misinformation. Either way, not good.) 7.5/10.

Strange (이상하지 않은가) (ft. RM): UGH the lyrics to this song holy sjflsjlfjslfjlsfjlsfjl. This song is just an unfortunate laundry list of everything millennials and genz’s are lowkey (or highkey really, let’s be real) fucking depressed about, and that’s that on that. 8/10 for reminding me about my existential dread and distaste for capitalism but like, in a way that slaps.

*28 (점점 어른이 되나봐) (ft. Niihwa): His vocals in this one are subtle but so nice, and I love the groove in this one too. It kinda reminds me of Hold Me Tight a little, actually. The lyrics in this one are also like sjflsjflsjfljsfjslfjslf. This is literally everything I have an existential crisis about at like 4 am on bad nights. How did he see into my fucking skull what the fuck. I think this is definitely one of my favourite songs on the album. 9.5/10 

Burn It (ft. MAX): I love the guitarline in the background of the chorus. The lyrics of this one are cool (him and his fire motifs lol), and this one really makes me think of courage (and that kermit meme where you face your inner darkness jfsljflsjfljflsf). I don’t like this song as much as the other ones in terms of the actual melody and the thumpy beat kinda thing, because I’ve never been into big loud thumpy kind of songs, but I do like the lyrics so it’s kinda at 5/10 points, because it evens itself out.

**People (사람): My favourite song on this mixtape I jfsjflsjfldsjfsjldfjslf. I knew from the moment I heard this song that it would be my favourite and I was correct. The tune, the groove and beat, his vocals, the lyrics. “Who said that humans are the animals of wisdom? To my eyes, it’s obvious that they are the animals of regret” ???Fuck????AH?? And “Living a life in the world, there’s nothing that lasts forever. Everything is just a happening that passes by” like UFCkslfklskf how fucking dare he understand and console me like this. Anyways. 10/10 for making me feel emotions (or maybe in spite of me feeling emotions? I haven’t decided yet.)

Honsool (혼술): This one sounds really weird in a really cool way and really ties in well to that whole dreamy kind of feel that Yoongi is so good at. The lyrics to this one too. My gosh. Like “we just endure through the day, I guess”? Jslfjlsjfsljfls. Felt that. 7.5/10

*Interlude - Set Me Free: I really like this song, especially the melody and Yoongi’s vocals. When I first heard it I thought “it’s so surreal and dreamlike, like rising out of a dream but feeling off and unsettled about it, or coming out of a bad bout of depression to face the unfortunate consequences.” Then I read the lyrics and was like “ah yes, so I was correct”. This song is like Internal Conflict and Depression: The Musical ksldksldkls. Overall, just cool vibes. 9/10.

*Dear My Friend (어땠을까) (ft. Kim Jongwan): This song is so cute and also so sad at the same time. I really like the melody (particularly the piano bit at the end) and the song itself is highly relatable. I can tell why he decided to put this one last, it’s really a different mood than the rest of the music on the album, but leaves you feeling more hopeful? 9/10.

And so ends my thoughts on D-2. Yoongi is one of my biases for BTS largely because of his writing and music so yeah, here’s way too many words of me appreciating his genius and art.

[time-is-standing]

top 10 songs of august

sorry for the long wait, I actually left my job, moved hours away from the capital, moved in with my bf, started working at a new place and it was a lot. so sorry for that. because all of this going on, I didn't really have time to listen to music as much as I did before, so I'll present to you the list of my current favs - not based on the stats. we're going with our hearts today. thanks.

1. Paralellák by Plazúr, Nagy Viktor

this song is by far the first for august & spetember as well. we were so stressed while planning the move and looking for jobs, that I came up with minigames we would play during the more stressful days. one of those were "collect all the Viktors". so we looked through spotify, youtube, the whole internet to gather all the songs Viktor Nagy has collaborated on and we both instantly fell in love with this one. such a great vibe, special, unique song. I said goodbye to my colleagues with the lines "ha görbült a tér, a végtelenben találkozunk" in my head.

2. Sánta Egyensúly by PETOFI

this song. this is a masterpiece. I'm not taking any arguments, this would've been the first if I didn't count in the fact that my bf and I bonded so hard because of that song. this means so much to me. I can't even speak about how close to my heart this song sits. "háromlábú széken sánta az egyensúly. mikor dőlök már el? mikor jön az az egy, aki belém rúg?"

3. Pirkadat by Téveszme

this song actually tells a tiny story from my life, that changed every single thing in my life. there was a friend of mine, who I loved so much, that it was the most toxic thing to ever exist. me (and my issues) made it a hundred times harder to get out of that relationship but I made it out, I'm back to my old self and I'm better than ever. this makes me proud & warms my heart - while making me angry just enough to feel some things and calm down by the end of the song. "érzem nem volt hiába, bármennyire is fáj"

4. Süket füledre talál a vallomásom by PETOFI

this is the biggest masterpiece ever made in history. it's only this low on the list because I've been listening to it for more than 3 years now and I'm still obsessed. experiencing this one live was the most ecstatic feeling in the whole wide world. I screamed every word and somehow still felt like it wasn't loud enough. the singer actually looked right into my eyes and I believe saw all the pain of the world right in there because we shared a few moments together (& that's why I love smaller bands so much, they really love to see the impact they make and connect with people). he actually gave me his just opened beer he took only a few sips out of and I'm still obsessing about it.

5. Pusztulás I by PETOFI, Nagy Viktor

this song... I've said to my bf that I just hate it and cannot find a meaning behind the words on a random tuesday. by the next weekend, this was the only song I've been listening to and I somehow understood it perfectly. every single line has it's own charm & meaning and I'm loving it. (this is also one of the Viktor's that started the whole game)

6. Én már soha többet semmiért nem fogok bocsánatot kérni by Nemecsek

I love this band and don't speak enough about them. I have some other favs but this was the first Nemecsek I've ever listened to. I love how fast this song is, the beats are hyping you up so much while the lyrics are pulling you down to the bottom of a deep dark ocean... yeah, that's hungarian music for you.

7. Harag by Anchorless Bodies

oh, this one. the title means "anger" and as we all know by now, I'm the queen of anger issues. I've stopped seeing my therapist because of the move and I'm curious if any of the methods she showed me will be useful in the future for me. at least I have these songs to get me into a better mindset.

8. Bányák by PETOFI, Kovács Gábor

"lelkem bányájában te vagy a sötétség"

I love how this band mixes poetry with songwriting. this somehow lights my heart on fire. I can't seem to be able to find where exactly, but I'm headed somewhere the exact moment I hear these songs. it's almost like the words give me purpose and motivation, I just need to find where those feelings are leading me.

9. Keserédes by Téveszme

an all time fav! sad, slow, super emotional. I have an unhealthy attachment to this song and I'm always coming back to it whenever I'm in the mood for these songs. actually it's kindof comforting for me, even though it's on the sadder side.

10. Akasszátok fel a királyokat by Counter Clockwise

I don't like it that much anymore but listened to it a whole lot with my bf. it's sadly still real meaningful in our country... I don't wanna get into politics, this page is not for that but some days I'm super scared of what's about to come.

The Terror Shipping Nonsensical Babbling - Jopson edition

first of all full disclosure while i am happy to ship this cat with anyone and everyone in this show (except, y’know) Jopson is my designated character per media i get to claim for the aroaces so technically in my world it’s canon that he’s just married to being the best steward on the planet like someone back home will be like “So have you ever thought of marriage?” and he’ll be like “No i’m good” “But Don’t You Want A Wife?” “Nah” “A Lover???” “Wouldn’t have time” “what” *rolls out to-do list* “Okay first of all you need Jesus but second of all-” 

BUT HYPOTHETICALLY 

there’s exactly one of two ways a Jopship could go

1. This is a guy who needs a PROJECT okay this man is a mama duck in the body of a cursed victorian 20-something if he isn’t actively caring for and nurturing something 24/7 he fades into the ether like if he doesn’t have an object of ceaseless loyalty and devotion you HAVE to give him like, an egg or something to take care of until that situation is rectified. Which means ideal candidates will be the poor little meow meows of life the pathetic soggy waffles of men (if women were an option in The Terror he’d go for like, an ex-maid turned weird victorian vigilante she totally killed her last three bosses and probably lives in a trashcan he would love her) okay he needs somebody he can take care of and hype up and enable i mean

2. ALTERNATIVELY and he would HATE this option initially he should be with someone who will be like “Wow, damn, he does everything. I better step it UP” and pulls an uno reverse on him and shows the same level of care and dedication and he’s like “wtf is THIS? NO??? That’s my job!” if he isn’t furious and wriggling like the cat in the pepe le pew cartoons they’re not doing it right. Unfortunately Jopson is tall so ideal candidates for this scenario are absolutely lacking but even shorties can make it work if they’re determined. Get somebody who will either out-soft him by sheer goodness of nature or who will run on spite and red bull and take it as a personal challenge to be as gentle and loving as possible and create a continual cycle of one-upping each other like that

THE CANDIDATES THEN

Luckily for us almost the entire cast of The Terror falls into one or the other of those two categories. So does Catwoman. So,

1. Catwoman - I was joking at first but actually i can see it. It could work. 19th Century Catwoman would be a weirdly ideal candidate. I hate myself

2. I won’t lie the Jopzier shippers know a category 1 when they see it. It ain’t my favorite but i also can’t argue with them

3. Lieutenant Nedward Little is unique in that he fits both categories like, on the one hand we’d get Jopson going “Oh my god I have to fix him,,,,” and trying to kind of lowkey hype him up, especially to Crozier, being like “that’s an interesting point lieutenant the captain would like to hear that he’s actually v fond of u u know” and Little would be like, you know, in tears by this point going “man i gotta step the hell up and be a damn good man” and then he wouldn’t but it’d be a solid effort and Jopson would appreciate it except for the times when Little’s on him to take a break or smthn. They definitely argue a lot but they’re a pretty cute option.

4. Lieutenant Irving is actually also a fit for both categories so Lieutenant Nedward once again knows the sting of not being special, that’s awful. Anyway, Irving is a flaming dumpster fire of a gay man, it’s downright tragic, Jopson would feel compelled to intervene. He’d sit through so many crisis of religion conversations and be so nice about it while also fully calling Irving out on his stupidass opinion so after a certain point Irving would actually be working on himself and would be like “wow I should do something nice” and would do a hard swerve in the opposite direction so he goes from Gay And Angry About It to like, Aggressively Bumbling Yet Well-Meaning Boyfriend like after a certain point Jopson would legitimately have to be like “please let me do what’s left of my job it’s all i have, also we have to improve your sewing” it’s a potentially cute option, they get into little tiffs too but at the end of the day they’re also in fact having an ongoing competition as to who can be the sweetest softest most gentle yet semi-feral bf

5. Henry FOSTER Collins oh my god it’s another category 12 HE STARTS OUT as a 1 like Jopson’s like “This man is on DRUGS?????” and drags him to Dr. Goodsir which starts a chain of events that saves all their lives but hear me out hear me out Collins is reminded that life is worth living and Collins is able to return to being the absolute soft semi-feral teddybear we all know and love he’s like “i will take care of you i will somehow bring flowers i will cuddle for warmth you don’t even have to ask i will build us a goddamn house i will punch tuunbaq in the face if it even looks at you what do you need what can i do for you” and Jopson is probably like “that’s very sweet but nO ACTUALLY” so he’s doing everything in his power to take care of Collins and make him feel loved but Collins is doing everything in his power to take care of Jopson and they’re both kind of stressed out but Collins is hug-shaped, and that is important. Jopson needs a hug that cracks his spine like a glow-stick it’d be so good for him, Collins is the man for the job. Collins also has rly big coat which is super important for purposes i’m sure you can discern

6. DOCTOR GOODSIR CATEGORY 2 codifier. Do y’all understand that if Goodsir falls in love with you you’re set for life? Like you literally never have to worry about anything ever again, that bear could be looking you dead in the eyes going “you’re next” and you’ll still die feeling safe and warm in the knowledge that Goodsir loves you SO GENTLY ngl Jopson would be horrified. He’d probably go through a bluescreen moment of just, “what is happening” just, straight up sheer confusion but eventually he’d be like “Oh. Alright” and would immediately make it his mission in life to be such a ray of sunshine that Goodsir would be like “I thought it was starting to be horrible here but Actually,,,” also it would be cute bc Goodsir would be like “You’re probably fluent in Inuktitut by now, you eavesdropped so much” cue playful argument over whether being in the room to serve tea and happening to be highly observant counts as eavesdropping

7. Ngl i don’t really see it aside from potentially bonding over a mutual appreciation for propriety and shampoo but on the other hand it’s the contrast between the man who will do amazing things to be seen and the one who’s willfully invisible but desperate to be seen by just one person it’s the fact that if Jopson ever caught on that Fitzjames is a Category 1 it’d be like “I Can Fix Him” senses ACTIVATE here comes Validation here comes Unconditional Love here comes Devotion Like You Never Seen Before those piercing slightly cursed knowing victorian eyes are locked on, man, Fitz would be shaking in his boots like Holy Shit and then Fitz would go Category 2 so fast the world would start spinning the other direction

8. Silna stop blocking me they would not get romantically involved per-say but at the end of all things Jop could be a suitable roaming the wild companion for her bc on the one hand he’s respectfully distant on the other hand he literally has to be ride or die in order to live, kind of like a shark if he stops he’ll die so he would absolutely give it 100% into helping her out however possible and she’d be like “If I Have To Be Stuck With A Haunted White Boy Who Isn’t That Doctor I Suppose This One Will Do. They’re not bf/gf, they are Partners. Silna would also clock Jopson as no less than 10% Unhinged and be like “Oh. Okay.” and occasionally side-eye him like *nods to herself* “Ghosts* and not elaborate

9. Hartnell - they would date for like one week bc Hartnell is a category 2 who’s just getting his Bi wings. They’re mutually v soft and adorable but after a certain point they’re both like “Oh okay turns out we’re actually just rly close friends” and it’s like the most peaceful breakup in the history of breakups

10. im including Hickey just to make the note that he is a 1 but even Jopson isn’t that good. He can’t fix that. No one can. It doesn’t even occur to Hickey to look at Jopson and go “I could make him worse” until it’s too late. A REAL contender would’ve figured out Jopson’s slightly insane well before the tent scene. If Hickey can’t figure it out before “I’ve shot smaller hawks than you” he can’t make Jopson worse, he wouldn’t even know where to start. Instead i’m proposing that they’re like, exes who never dated. They were never attracted to each other but Jopson went “I’ve shot smaller hawks than you” and Hickey went *EYES EMOJI* they have a beautiful arc of “strangers-to-can’t-be-in-the-same-room-without-trying-to-skin-each-other” 

11. i’m serious about 19th-century catwoman tho
