#and i simply cannot bear it

[holy-loki]

so i’m sure someone might have mentioned this before and i’ve just missed it, but. i just noticed something .

so of course we remember the prelude to the circus scene, where everyone in brian’s entourage (+ curt) form this beautiful royal-esque gaudy portrait (pictured below):

but upon reexamination of the orgy scene… (pictured below):

obviously it’s not the EXACT same furniture (and this shot is much less vibrantly lit) but. the red and gold furniture is similar enough to suggest to me that… that the orgy is still a performance in the same (or at least similar) way the circus prelude was.

which is why brian and curt leaving the performance space and going into a private, intimate moment seems illicit. at least in the circus, the press and the people get to take part in the ‘strange’ intimacy, and make a commodity of it. but in the orgy scene? when curt gets up and goes to another room, and brian follows??? they, essentially, are leaving the stage entirely. they exist as only they will ever know, and not even us - the secret 4th wall audience - get to experience that.

With how they toned down Gabe, I'm really worried that people are gonna hate on Sally for turning him to stone because they're gonna say "He wasn't THAT bad!" and say she was too cruel.

i will literally fucking riot. i will burn everything to the ground. absolutely fucking not

If I’m not careful I might accidentally give Ghostbur celiacs disease in the name of Projection. I must resist. He does not deserve that.

I really, really need a girls hang-out day and gossip. I've just spent about an hour crying steadily over feeling heart-broken and adrift. I need a big group of girls sitting on sofas, drinking tea/prosecco, watching romcoms and just putting it in perspective.

I have the spiritual constitution of a little shivering wet dog today, at work but on a different shift to usual where I don't know anyone and everything is slightly wrong, but my friend stopped by and gave me paracetamol and went and got me a snack bc I was too anxious and couldnt find anyone to ask about taking my break. because she correctly identified that being very hungry was in fact making the anxiety: worse

look im gonna level with you. as a survivor of multi-instance SA whose abusers were usually men and boys: if ur afraid of men, what i hear is that you believe in the validity of patriarchy and its philosophical positions.

Very important Tenet-related question: did you hold your breath when they were going though the storage rooms in the airport after the oxygen was sucked out

is this a universal experience??? I think it might be. I really do.

previous reblog has me thinking about ralsei again (a year after the debacle that was tea theory) because it really is an understanding of a 'fixed' role and how you act when you are faced with the concept of it. like seam and the secret bosses, ralsei is aware that he's in a rpg to some degree (knowing how to save, awareness of light world layout, etc) and that he occupies the role of a party member, specifically one that is meant to provide guidance to the party leader. his adherence to this role to the point of making it his whole identity because there is scarcely anything otherwise is what makes him adamant in pigeonholing susie and kris to the roles of heroes in chapter 1. he reveres kris to a somewhat uncomfortable degree, and while i'm sure there's a part of him that genuinely thinks kris is a good friend, a good other part of it is also that he thinks admiring kris is the right thing to do. of course, all of the party members are in love with the party leader! it's only the natural thing to do! (nevermind that the person everyone is actually infatuated with is susie.)

there was a post that went into how ralsei only blushes specifically when he's in proximity of the SOUL instead of just anywhere near kris themself, and i think that's the gist of it. ralsei's whole identity is tied to his perceived duty, and he overcorrects for it. the lesson, of course, is learning that he is and will be loved regardless of his performance of his role.
