Destiel fic recs/what I’ve been reading (round #2)

I promised (eventually!) more fic recs and I figured I’d better do it soon before my list to talk about got TOO long. Also I’m just bubbling to praise up an amazing fic I read last night that literally has given me a fanfic hangover this morning and I need you all to suffer with me.

Starting with that fic in question:

Aria for an Angel (84k) by anyrei, mugglerock. I hurt all over from this one and I command you to do the same.

That said, DO NOT READ if you can’t stand the idea of Cas finding love/happiness with someone else (even if the fic is endgame Destiel). Also don’t read if you can’t stand your heart being shattered by pain before being carefully put back together again. Those warnings aside, this is one of the most stunning fics I’ve read yet in SPN fandom and I’m going to rec it at you no matter what. I’ve been feeling very pissy at Dean lately, as I’m on season 12 in my complete watch-thru, and with how much Cas has been suffering and getting beaten down for, like, SEASONS now. And it got me looking for fics where Cas gets some of the TLC/love/care that he needs from someone else, at least until Dean can get his shit together. Enter Mick Davies. Mick comes to Cas for help with a case that ends up involving a Grigori, and the two grow closer as Cas enjoys spending time with someone who genuinely expresses care and concern for him...but when Dean finds out will he have to choose between the Winchesters, his found family on Earth, and his new boyfriend? And when tragedy strikes, is it too late for a second chance at his first love again?

This story is funny, hot, heartbreakingly sad and just completely wrung me out emotionally. The characterizations totally worked for me, the growth they all went through was the kind of stuff I only wish the writers of the show could pull off. There’s just...there’s so much pain and love and some good stuff with poor Sam and Mary caught in the middle of this shitstorm and I wasn’t sure I could be brought back around to wanting Cas and Dean together in the end, but the authors pulled it off and everything about this story hurts, and heals, in the best possible way.

The rest of my recs in this round-up beneath the cut.

Seek to Know You Better (32k) by ahurston. Season 15 canon-divergence—so no Empty, no rusty nail, but things are relatively calm and settled in the hunter/Winchester world. As such Dean and Cas go on a road-trip together, investigate some minor cases, and gradually open up and really TALK via a “36 Questions That Lead to Love” article Cas finds on-line. One of those fics that just gives you a happy glow inside to read; it feels very believable and the characters have a maturity and adultness to them that just feels right. The little details of all the places they stop for food while talking are a delight, and it’s just the right amount of pining (for me) before they finally get things together.

Purgatory, director's cut (27k) by runsinthefamily. THIS IS THE ULTIMATE PURGATORY FIC (well, in my reading adventures so far.) Written (apparently?) before season 8 actually aired, it takes a very different - and weirdly creative and bizarre - look at what purgatory would be like. And if Cas stuck with Dean through it all. It also posits that as a human Dean would be “allergic” to purgatory and need Cas’s grace to hold himself together...but the deeper they travel, trying to get out, the more precarious Cas’s hold on his vessel becomes. I love everything about this fic, the weird imagery, the way Dean just...rolls with everything happening to Cas and still loving him because it’s Cas, not his vessel, that’s important.

Grooming Instincts (26k) by jemariel. More wing!kink which...yeah. Gimme all the wing grooming/back massages and weird angel anatomy, please. Cas is grumpy while going through what he describes as “molting” only...it’s a bit more complicated than that. And Dean has no idea what he’s gotten himself into until Cas starts grooming him...and Kevin is able to translate/figure out what’s happened. Funny and hot and just...a yummy happy read with great bits from Sam, Kevin and Charlie for good measure.

Things that Leave Marks (23k) by thestoryinsideme. Canon-divergent from Season 9. Wherein it takes Dean three years to find Cas after getting kicked out of the bunker. And when he does, it’s apparent he’s been through a lot, and he’s not exactly ready to or certain about going back to life with the Winchesters. This was sad and sweet and fluffy and angsty in all the right ways for a comfort fic read. (Also features Cas the budding artist! I love that idea!)

Wavelength-gasm (11k) by Mumble-Bee. The fuck or die trope gets a very fun twist when it involves needing to fuck an angel in his true form. Dean certainly learns this the hard way! This rec is for all the trueform!Cas-loving freaks like me out there...I’ve certainly never seen a smut fic embrace the weirdness of it all like this one.

Drive Faster Sammy (7k) by almaasi. Speaking of fuck-or-die fics, pray for Sam in this one. He has to listen to Dean helping when Cas gets struck by one (again) and they don’t have time to make it back to the bunker—so things get kind of graphic in the backseat of the Impala.

Love Burns Its Casualties (5k) by anactoria. Beautiful and bittersweet fic set during “The End”. Present-day Dean can’t sleep, and ends up invited by future!Cas to spend what he knows is likely his last night alive with him. Features casual weed use (if that bothers you), some very hot shotgunning (if it doesn’t), and is just...a wonderfully written atmospheric story that I’ve already re-read several times. (It’s especially a good read when slightly stoned yourself. Um. Not that I’m necessarily advocating for that sort of thing, unless it’s legal in your neck of the woods. Um. Anyway...)

something quiet and minor and peaceful and slow (3.7k) by celeste9. Heaven fic, so don’t read if that’s not your thing. Also don’t read if you’re completely convinced John Winchester is an unredeemable homophobe and terrible parent all around. I, personally, liked this take a lot more as it shows a struggling but not horrible John confused about why this angel keeps popping over, asking Mary questions about what Dean will want in his little slice of Heaven. The title really describes the lovely mood of this little fic and I liked it a lot.

heaven, reconstructed (9k) by vaudelin. Another Heaven fic, more focused on Cas than Destiel (but that is endgame). Goes into what exactly Cas was doing, working with Jack to try to build a better Heaven while awaiting Dean’s eventual arrival. It’s a great fic for world-building (in more ways than one!) in the SPN universe and I like a story that explores Cas’s relationships with others beyond Dean and Sam. I’d add too that as a fan of The Good Place, I just in general enjoy stories that look at the complexity of what actually would constitute a “perfect” afterlife. So imagine Castiel as a TGP architect here if you will (I certainly did!)

The Passion of the Christ (and his angelic ex-boyfriend) (4.9k) by Bzzee. Another heaven!fic, but pure delightful crack. What happens when Dean and Cas run into one of Cas’s ex-boyfriends in Heaven’s roadhouse...who just happens to be Jesus Christ. Dean isn’t too happy with that knowledge (and neither is Judas). Just read it—heresy and all. For a crack fic it’s actually wonderfully smart and wicked.

Can't You Hear It Calling (4.7k) by imogenbynight. A “missing scene” from s8e32 (Sacrifice). Cas expects to never see Dean again once he (expects to, at least) close the gates of Heaven. As a parting gift, he takes Dean back in time to a Led Zeppelin concert...and then a motel room to spend a final night together. As a music lover, the description of the excitement of the concert (and the happy/sadness when the show is almost over) totally hit me in the feels...and it’s such angsty/beautiful smut when they get together.

You're Gonna Live Tomorrow (3k) by MajorEnglishEsquire, microcomets, orange_crushed. Cas doesn’t know a lot about being human (yet), but he does know one thing - he wants to marry Dean. Sweet, sweet happy fluff, just enjoy.

Who's Counting? (1.7k) by Annie D (scaramouche). Just some pure angel-powered delicious smut. Dean learns the hard way, over and over again, that angels have basically no refractory period.

10 characters, 10 fandoms, 10 tags

HELLO tag game thank you @arse-crack-thistle! just gonna dive right in

1. henry - rwrb - gotta start off with him too. i relate to henry so much, through his repression, his difficult relationship with his family, and his eventual self love. his journey to finally putting himself first, and thinking for the first time about what he wants makes me go wild

2. jack - omgcp - oh boy. this man literally kickstarted my queer journey. the pressure from your family, a fall from grace, a relationship with someone who loves food. just a big sports boy who has to learn how to be himself. LOVE that guy

3. zuko - atla - sorry stealing another one! there seems to be a theme with proving to your family that you're good enough after they've expressed disappointment with you. zuko's redemption arc is one of the most important stories to me ever. watching it as a kid and seeing him struggle, seeing how hard it was to go against what he'd been taught, and still being able to learn and grow and overcome it. idk god i can't get started on this or i will never stop

4. janet - tgp - okay i'm done making this about me. besides the fact that janet is a Trans Mood™️ #notagirl, she's one of the most creative and interesting characters i've ever seen on tv.

5. megamind - megamind - idk if there's technically a megamind fandom or if that's just the nature of humanity but this movie is so important to me. the villain to hero arc that he isn't really interested in but does anyway, the showmanship, he's a gay icon, and he and metro man definitely hooked up at some point. it's a perfect piece of cinema no i will not be taking any questions

6. mothman - ??? - idk if this counts but how am i not going to include him on this list. cryptids mean a lot to me for some reason? might have something to do with the agender thing? who cares i love him

7. gene - bob's burgers - this kid is just fckn crazy, he does what he wants, he has no regard for gender, and he loves music. what else can i say

8. jimmy kaga-ricci - iwbft - anxious trans boy who just wants to make music with his best friends. he's so kind and sad and scared and talented. thinking about him makes my heart hurt, in the best way

9. ari - aaddsotu - i could read this book forever. ari's narration reads so smoothly to me, and every single thing he says resonates and sticks to me. he's so tired and sad and full of love but he doesn't know how to spread it. he has my entire heart

10. remy - ratatouille - this is without a doubt my favorite p*xar movie. all about food and passion and being who you are no matter what anyone says. look i know he's a rat in a kitchen okay. i get it. but anyone can cook

okay tagging (no pressure)!! ten is a lot here we go @kkpwnall @actuallyerin1992 @richcomplextapestry @fox-diaz @the-waterloo-letters @okonjofoundation @14malbert and at least four more people who aren't tagged lol. anyone's welcome and pls tag me!

Have decided I’m gonna do my full week off next week, for a multitude of reasons. Am trying to drag myself through the next three days to that light, so I’m making a list of things I want to do that week, and also i just like lists, so, plans for 4/11-4/17:

Assisting with the Unpackening/Painting as it continues

Start the Great Unfuckening of personal things by organizing at least one email inbox. If all of those somehow get done, I have the list in the planner of other things to try organizing but that’ll probably be enough for the week.

Marathon-watch time! Gonna try and finish the Magicians.

Also gonna try and get around to sitting down w/ brother and do some of the things we means to: watch F+TWS, finish The Good Place, we will probably not get through TGP so we probably won’t start TUA yet (may start a TUA rewatch by myself, though, in preparation for MerMay)

Video games! Cause I’ve been in the mood. Besides the continued Marvel Puzzle Quest-ing, some Among Us would be nice. maybe continue The Black Closet or Talos Principle, or starting Speed Dating for Ghosts.

I should be set for next month’s finances so I’m gonna quite possibly break and get both Blades in the Dark and Sins of the Father. Do I have people to play either one with? Not really. Am I probably just gonna make myself sad? Yep. Am I dying to get my hands on them and examine the mechanics anyway? Yep.

Some downtime away from computer, preferably every day -- get back to knitting and/or embroidery, maybe go for a walk around and get to know the new neighborhood, something. Will probably be while watching things if knitting or whatever but still.

Writing: Writing every day would be great but not required, but at least 3-4 times would be nice and feels possible with recent pace? Kind of want to see if I can finish the domestic fic before next Friday’s new Blades. Maybe some superhero/daemon AU if not. Getting back to the Bare/TUA fic or the Luther & Allison follow-up to the WNTV/TUA fic would also work.

The Bittersweet Place

Poignant and bittersweet. A fitting end in some ways, but not my taste due to what I found to be thematic and philosophical contradictions.

Sigh.

The Good Place’s ending was not the sort to ruin the rewatcheability of the show, but it definitely wasn’t my favorite. If you liked it, though, that’s great! What follows is influenced a great deal by my personal tastes, as all of us bring our own experiences to media and thereby can never truly be objective.

(that to say I’m not looking to debate, just express what I was thinking/feeling)

I think stories that deal with death walk several fine lines, because of course, no one really knows what happens after death. We have faiths and hopes and beliefs, but we won’t know until we, like, die. I think western media has a habit of idolizing death, but I also don’t think ignoring the reality of death is a very good answer. Because death is happening all around us. That’s a tricky balance. I mean, moral philosophers have been writing about life and death and which is actually greater for millennia.

The message The Good Place offered was satisfying on a human/earthly level, but less so on an eternal level. The show’s straddled the line between being very humanistic (in a great sense) while also making blatantly theological arguments without addressing religion (which yes, you can do: The Good Place’s deconstruction of the concept of eternal hell is theological as well as moral). For the most part TGP balances this really well, but in the finale it seemed as if they forgot this balance and plunged over the edge, thereby and grounding themselves in an answer that was ultimately--for me at least--deeply unsatisfying.

It seemed almost as if the show was trapped by its own humanism, unable to explore its imagination, which thereby created a contradiction of its own humanism.

So, let’s say they don’t want to explore the God question. Probably a good idea for the show.

Without that, you’re left with the idea of Sisyphus. The Good Place within the show was an example of this conundrum: neverending happiness turns you into a mindless zombie. But: why? Is there a limit to what we can discover about the world and each other? Considering humans just rewrote all of eternity, that seems very very odd. Why can’t they come up with another solution to help the people in the Good Place improve? Everything isn’t right there because people are zombies. Unless zombieness is rightness, but you’re telling me it’s not, so why can’t you fix it without death?

Why is death suddenly a good thing, when it wasn’t shown as such within the show? It wasn’t the characters’ deaths that convinced their loved ones to grow as people. It was the second chance at life in which they confronted and reconciled with their loved ones.

One possible solution was an inverse of the show’s premise. Since the show started off as “hell is other people” (nice Sartre reference), have the end be “heaven is other people.” Have The Good Place, eternity, be helping other people reach their full potential as good human beings. Populate neighborhoods with humans and demons working together to help people.

The downside to that is that you’d risk the same repetition trap: Sisyphus rolling the rock up the hill for eternity. However, portraying such a thing as eternal drudgery contradicts the entire message about humanity being able to improve. Because if you’re able to improve, then you are always changing, no matter if you’re in the good place or the bad place. Thus... helping people is always going to be changing. The only way this idea gets hellish is if you believe humans will always suck and never improve on earth or in the trial place, in which case... your entire moral point is moot.

In the end, they ended up with something like Sisyphus anyways: you get to live in a better world, improve, and then death again. And perhaps nonexistence. Perhaps not. But hey, you’re a glowing orb of inspiration.

I’ll admit, an ending where everyone ends up in the good place would be idealistic and I’m speaking a great deal about my own personal taste, but honestly, the showrunners semi-redeemed a terrible human being in Brett and also the architect of human suffering for millennia in Shawn, which strikes me as pretty idealistic. So... I wanted idealism. (I also realize the showrunners don’t have to please me.) I’m just so tired of having happy endings to stories denied because creators feel it’s cheap. When characters have suffered so much and grown so much, it’s not.

But my main issue with the ending is that it had a gaping plot hole:

Not wanting to exist anymore isn't beautiful. It's an illness.

It’s literally suicidal ideation, a major symptom of depression.

Why bother reinventing the point system if you're all just gonna end up in a place where you will eventually decide to commit final suicide? Watching a loved one die isn’t happy. It isn’t ever happy, even if they have lived the fullest, happiest life that touched many, even if they’ve been the best they could be. I really don’t like the sorrow is actually happiness trend. Ironically, it almost implies that happiness is somehow morally wrong, to which I call bullshirt.

You don’t have to be a little sad all the time to be happy. Yes, earth is screwed up. The world is wrong. We will never get that pure happiness, but can’t we dream about it? Can’t we hope it exists, whether in an afterlife or in a fantastical TV show? If you do have moments of being fully happy on earth, you don’t have a moral obligation to remember everything sucks and we’re all gonna die and temper that therein.

Ironically, The Good Place’s "sadness is necessary for happiness” ended up somewhat endorsing to the philosophy of my favorite character in fiction ever. But that is not a good thing. He’s my favorite character because of how the novel unpacks his ideas

What is happiness if there is still death and suffering (because you can’t ignore that Eleanor was suffering)? Why are we calling that happiness? We’re told it is, but are we shown it? We are not.

Dostoyevsky’s Demons’ Alexei Kirillov thinks:

Man is unhappy because he doesn't know he's happy; only because of that. It's everything, everything, Whoever learns will at once immediately become happy, that same moment...

But it doesn’t end well. Kirillov deconstructs that idea because in the end, it simply isn’t true.

He wanted to live.

Oh me too, I hate that we have to split entire comments over several asks. Yeah I'm not gonna lie, it is stressful especially imo if you move somewhere else where you don't have family or know anyone at first, and on top of that with anxiety/depression, it's def not the best mixture. But I actually do like the idea of living abroad; I'd love to have stayed home, but apart from my family, it really hasn't much to offer. Oh yeah, I think they should all cut us some slack 1/4

Oh man that sucks. I've only watched bits of HF 0 here and there, probs only from the first few seasons (because that network back home repeats a lot of the initial seasons of pretty much every show it broadcasts, and I never actually know when they air the recent seasons), so I'm def not caught up with anything, but man that sucks. I hate it when characters have gone through a huge character development over several seasons and at the last minute the producers decide to ruin everything 2/4 Oh yeah and channel four hasn't aired all of s7 from B99. Sometimes I'm quite surprised that back home there's quite a good number of shows that are only about 2 weeks behind the American schedule, considering how late everything usually arrives in Europe. I've sort of been rewatching 911 by forcing my mum to watch it back home and then commenting on it with her. I know what you mean; I felt empty when TGP ended. Oh sorry about the spoilers. For me, B99 and TGP are great companions 3/4 I feel like tumblr keeps eating the last ask. I think I was meaning to say that B99 and TGP are comfort shows for me too. Like the perfect shows to have playing on the background. And oh yeah, now that pretty much every network is delaying its shows until Jan 2021 or later, maybe now's the time to actually start a new show, not that I think my brain will do it, because whenever I have the change, it just decides to rewatch something 4/4

Or even if they had like anon IMs, I would be fine with that. But oh well. Yeah, I can imagine that, I don’t think I’d be able to cope well at all.

I do love H50 but yeah this season’s been a bit... interesting. I brought my mother the entire box set (well S1-9) so we had the most of it anyway, and then S10 was on NowTV so, we’ve managed to watch it all. But yeah! He had this huggeeee redemption arc and then they just ... fucked it up in the last season and I’m beyond salty about it. Yeah, we tend to usually get things so late in England, which is why I usually stream things to avoid spoilers.

Yeah! That’s why I’m avoiding the end episodes, think I’m still indenial about it. It’s cool, I’m used to the spoilers, I don’t usually mind them, but it kinda gave away the entire season lmao. Still not as bad when someone spoiled Endgame for me though (I was so mad).

They really are!! It’s nice to just have them on in the background, and Tumblr definitely tends to eat so many asks.

I do think I need to start something new, I just gotta figure out what!

oh my god. Ok so I just scrolled through your blog and my heart hurts because there is so much love and just so much stuff I can relate too and I just ahhh damnnn it I cant even but like can I please have the story of your relationship with this girl your with? please? i'm a hopeless romantic I feel too much I love so hard my own love life is complicated but i know the kind of love you talk about thats exactly how i love the love of my life too so yours is a story I need to hear

ok so. it all started on April 31st, 2018. i reblogged one of those ask games and she sent me an emoji that said “i’m too scared to talk to you but i think you’re great” and i was like do it!!! and she did!!!! she texted me after i had already gone to sleep tho, so i only answered the next day. but then we talked all day. and the next. and the next. and we never ran out of things to talk about and even only knowing her for a few days i already felt comfortable enough with her to talk about anything?? it was wild. since day 1 we’ve had this connection that i’ve never had with anyone else and its my favorite thing in the world. after like a week we already had a bunch of inside jokes, something that i’d never had before, and i was already crushing on her. ok so we became very close friends like immediately, and i mostly ignored my crush on her bc i thought she didn’t like me back and usually i’d get meaningless crushes on everyone at first before i met her. but then this other girl and i started flirting and i realized i didnt like her bc i liked c too much, so i broke things off and kinda went like “oh shit this is real” and decided that i’d just stay friends with c until i eventually couldnt take it anymore and had to tell her abt my feelings bc thats how i am. anyways ok cool meanwhile i made her watch the good place on rabb.it with me which will be relevant later.

ok so fast forward to may 21st or something around that time. its time to sleep bc i have school the next day so we say goodnight, but then i guess she says something or reblogs something and i get sad bc i realize she doesnt like me back. so i make some hashtag sad posts abt yearning and then i realize i told her i was going to sleep and i didnt want her to think i didnt want to talk to her so i text her again and say like “ok i was going to go to sleep but then i got sad abt my crush” and SHE GOES “you have a crush????????” and im there like. what in the hell bc not only did i not try to hide it At All, i constantly posted about it and had an entire tag about her and i thought it was pretty obvious. so anyways i go “yes?? i thoought you knew that?? im literally always posting about it??” and she asks me to talk abt the crush and who it is. i say “just stalk the tag if u want, im going to sleep” then shes like “nO WAIT WHO IS IT” and im like. blatantly ignoring that and my heart is already beating out of my chest but she Really wants to know and then at one point i say “please dont make me answer that” so shE SAYS “you’re making me think that its me” and i say “i dont know what you want me to say” and SHE GOES “I WANT YOU TO SAY THAT ITS ME BC I HAVE A HUGE CRUSH ON YOU” so i just. die. right then and there. also yknow we talk about it and its like after 1 am and im just happier than i’ve ever been. ok so 2 days later she asks me out Officially and its great and shes the cutest gf ever and she made me feel more wanted than i’d ever felt in my entire life. then 6 days later she sends me a big big big text on tumblr and long story short (bc it was kinda personal), she would be deleting her all social media for the summer.

so she was gone. and we had only dated for a week at this point, but we’d known each other for 2 months, and i already loved her. i already knew she was the love of my life. i didnt even try to move on, i’d tell people i didnt wanna move on cuz i knew i was meant to love her. i had another blog like this that i used to talk about how much i loved and missed her (so like. exactly like this). i literally reasoned with myself that like. that happened because before i met her i was in a really bad place after a terrible relationship and i was almost giving up on finding someone who actually made me feel loved bc i thought it would never happened, so i was like “ok so i was in a really bad place, so the universe brought my soulmate a little early just for a while so that i would know i had to hold on, and when its actually time for us to be together, it will bring us to each other once again” like i actually told myself that, in those words. and yknow what? i wasnt even wrong. on july 15th she texted me from an empty tumblr with her old url and at first i literally couldnt believe it but we talked for hours and hours and i asked her what happened bc i thought she was disconnecting for the summer and she said “i was. i am. i just couldnt not talk to you anymore” and she said that she thought about me every single day, and i told her i missed her and she said she didnt text sooner bc she thought i’d be angry at her and ofc i wouldnt, i could never be angry at her and besides, she was just taking care of herself and i said i dont think i could be anything less than head over heels for for, and she said she felt the same way, but wasnt ready to be more than friends yet. but that had always been more than enough for me. just having her in my life would always be more than enough for me. so we stayed friends.

then, on august 9th i got this ask.

and she saw it after i said i was gonna go to bed (bc again, i had school the next day) and she texted me a whole thing about how that was the nicest thing anyone had ever said about her and that i should be asleep but she had to get it out of her chest and that her anxiety made it hard for her to show how much i meant to her so she was sorry if i didnt know and this would probably make no sense but she was tired of keeping it to herself bc shes the luckiest person alive for having met me and that it was gonna be so hard because shes so difficult (shes not) and her anxiety is difficult but that she literally spent every night thinking about me and of buying plane tickets to come see me so that she could be with me. then she was like “im sorry if this is uncomfortable to you and you can just ignore it but i think im in love with you and this is over text and not romantic at all (it was the most romantic night of my life) but you’re asleep (i wasnt) and we arent together but i want to be one day” and until this i was Trying to fall asleep and then i checked my phone that kept RINGING and died a thousand times over and started to answer and she sent other texts saying “i’ve never felt this way about anyone before i’m so in love with you its fucking ridiculous and this is gonna be so complicated but fuck i want this so bad / i’m sorry it took me so long / would you move to new york with me?” and i was This Close to literally fucking exploding like. how the hell was this happening how was it not a DREAM. so we talked and i obviously said i loved her too and eventually she asked me out and thats still probably the best night of my life. other highlights: “i’ve loved you way before august 9th so jot that down” and “off topic but i love you / you’re honestly my other half” and, after i said “you cant make me laugh its 2am”, she answered “i’m going to make you laugh for the rest of your life so help me god” and thats my favorite thing anyone has ever said to me probably and so far she’s kept her word.

anyways we got back together and then she told me that she never even told her friends she broke up with me??? bc that way she could keep pretending we were still together???? literally like sjdksndk imagine being this loved. i dont have to. anyways she wrote poems abt me sometimes and her christmas gift for me was gonna be a book with all her poems and she called it “what we owe to each other” because of the good place (remember how i said it’d be relevant later? its later) bc like she said that when we were watching tgp together on rabb.it thats when she realized that she Really Truly liked me like For Real. and the inscription on the book was going to be “to the girl i love / and what i owe her” and. yall. i cry. anyways one of the poems had a huge impact on us. heres the story:

and she got them but we broke up before she got to mail them to me. what happened was she had some mental health problems and she said she couldnt give me what i needed at the time but knew i’d still give her my all bc thats just how i am and she thought it wouldnt be fair so she broke things off to work on her mental health. she said she would need some time before we could be friends. the last thing we said was that we loved each other. this was in like november 2018, and we didnt talk for months. i actually tried to move on this time after a while, but it didnt take. and then i gave up for good. havent tried since. but anyways, then, on march 11th, 2019, i had my first day of college back in my home country, and we have this “pranks”/games that seniors get to do to the freshmen, and one of them required eggs, and they asked us to paint them, so i panted mine as iron man bc it was easy, but c LOVES iron man. like. LOVES. like in a Whole New Level of loving. once when we were dating she said she loved me more than tony stark and i was like. shook. like she tattooed “T.S” on her ankle after him. u get the point. she loves him very much, its adorable and endearing and i love it. anyways. so i sent her a picture of it saying like “you dont have to answer this but i made this for my university and i thought you would like it” and she answered and IMMEDIATELY something clicked and we talked and talked and talked and it was never weird or awkward or uncomfortable. it never is with her. its incredible, i cant explain it. i Know shes my soulmate like thats the ONLY possible explanation for this kind of connection. its unreal. anyways. we became friends again! all was well.

then one beautiful night she drunk texts me sndjkajs she sends me so many texts and says it sucks that we live so far away and that she saw my posts (in this particular case, one that said something about like. when she talked about love now, was it about someone else?) and she said that it wasnt. and then she went to sleep and i only saw the texts when i woke up and i was DYING bc we had a 4 hour difference and it’d take a while for her to wake up. when she did, we talked and she said she wasnt over me and was scared she might never be, and even though we were still gonna stay friends, it was nice to know that she still loved me. ok so fast forward a bit more and i was starting to wonder if she’d moved on again, when she finds out her best friend had a crush on her, and that conversation ends up with her saying “it was 100% platonic for me / sorry if thats weird i just wanted you to know that” and it was NOT weird it was GREAT NEWS bc i was Hella jealous of her best friend and at first i wondered if they were dating and anyways the fact that she wanted me to know that was a pretty good hint that she still had feelings for me. ngl im still somewhat jealous of h (c’s best friend), but thats just bc im an insecure lil bitch and also bc they get to go out and do stuff together that i cant do with c bc of the distance, yknow? but anyways. then she went on a graduation trip in mid to the end of june and she bought me a magnet. just. out of nowhere. i cannot stress enough how Incredibly unexpected this was. so much so that i actually convinced myself that it meant she was over me????? literally. what the fuck. anyways we named him together and coincidentally (or bc of soulmate powers. who knows) we both had the same favorite names. i still love that.

okay so then we go to july 29th, 2019. first of all theres one of my favorite interactions Ever which was like after i was venting about something and i was thanking her and i said “you’re always here for me” to which she answered “nowhere else i’d rather be” and i still think thats peak romance and i will take no criticism on this. anyways so then she sent me a poem that she wrote based on a song i’d sent her (the song i called “heaven is a place” and its the BIGGEST mood for being in love and i sent it to her bc it was how i felt about her so her writing a poem about it?? literally the best thing ever. love it) anyways it was a beautiful poem and i cried and got very emotional and kinda went too far in my compliments (aka being very obvious about my romantic feelings) and then i was like oh no sorry if i made u uncomfortable and she was like. “you have NEVER. EVER EVER EVER EVER made me uncomfortable” “you’re the only person on planet earth i am comfortably myself around” and “there’s nothing you could ever say that i wouldn’t wanna hear” and anyways it was just very good and romantic conversation even tho we were just cough cough platonic hashtag gal pals hashtag no homo ✌️ and then she was like ok wait. i need to talk to u abt something. and in short she said she was waiting for us and i was like well what are you waiting for exactly? and she was like idk?? for us to accidentally bump into each other in new york in a few years?? WHICH WAS LITERALLY WHAT I’D DAYDREAM ABOUT BACK IN JUNE 2018 BEFORE SHE CAME BACK OKAY so anyways we had a Great conversation and said i love you about a thousand times each and she decided she was gonna buy tickets to come see me. and then she dID like TWO DAYS LATER. lichrally. queen of impulsivity but in the best way possible.

—————

ok quick edit here cuz i forgot to say that when i found out she was coming i asked for my mom’s help to make a necklace pendant for her from scratch. my mom works with prosthetics so she has the material to make jewelry and back when c and i were dating in 2018 i had made this lil design for a necklace that had the moon and the ocean (bc duh) and i was gonna give it to her for valentines day in 2019 but we broke up before that so i didnt get the chance, but when i found out i was meeting her i knew i had to. so i made the necklace in wax, like this:

and my mom took it to her work and heated it up to melt it and keep the shape of it to fill with silver, and this was the result:

i gave it to her when she got here and she wore it while she was here and it made me so happy. ok edit over

—————

ok so we kept being like couple-y but not officially in a relationship bc we didnt want to make her anxiety worse. also at one point she was like “so about the ‘i love you more than the moon/ocean’ thing, since we BOTH love BOTH of the moon AND the ocean, i think its only Fair if we update our love declarations to ‘i love you more than the mocean’ bc its mix of both but thats not a word, buT its pronounced exactly like ‘motion’. therefore we should both start saying ‘i love you more than the motion’”. so now we have both the wonderful, romantic, original version, and the NOT ROMANTIC AT ALL DO U HEAR ME C??? version :) and after this day she always started with the WORST!!!!!! version, and i always started with the Only Valid Version, but we’d still answer each other’s ofc because. well. thats love i gues?? it sorta goes like this though: her: i love you more than the motion / me: i hate u / me: i literally hate u so much / me: i Also love you more than the motion

but anyways she was coming to visit me but the plane ticket wasnt for my home country it was for where i was going to university at (a new university, i was starting over) and when i first got here on this campus, i didnt have a working phone number for this country, and i wouldnt be able to access the wifi for 3 days, so i had no way of talking to her. it was TERRIBLE and i missed her more than anything in my LIFE but when i got wifi (after CRYING to the people here bc theyre the most unorganized uni ever and i was already very overwhelmed and stressed) i immediately called her and she’d sent me over 100 text messages dkfjssjks it was amazing, there were two (2) videos of her singing (which is like. objectively the best thing in the world, and the song was rlly romantic and i love it sm when she showed it to me for the first time she said it made her think abt me), a poem, AND a HUGE text with “i love you” written like. a THOUSAND TIMES. seriously i have a gif of it opening and scrolling bc it was so long that the text wouldnt show up directly on the chat screen and u have to click on it to see the rest. i’d never felt more loved in my entire life by anyone ever. anyways so then it came the day for her to get here and i had to wake up at 5 am to go get her at the airport and the uber was like $40 but who CARES it was the best day of my LIFE and i got there 20 minutes earlier bUT GUESS WHAT SO DID SHE (hashtag just soulmate things) then we facetimed the entire time while she was walking through the airport and getting her luggage and then she hung up to walk to the door where i was and we hugged for like 5 minutes and we were totally in people’s way and also almost fell but it was the best thing in the world and i never should’ve let her go. but, we had to go home, so i did. and we spent 4 days together and im not gonna go into details bc this is already too long but u can always send me another ask about her visit if ur not a coward. also i bought her a hoodie from my uni and whenever she wears it i just. die. in short, those days were the happiest i’ve ever been. this campus res had never felt like home before that friday and it hasnt again since that monday, but i swear to god, during those 4 days, this was the only place i could possibly belong.

anyways then she left and i cried for the entire uber ride home and then i cried all day. lmao. also when she was here she gave me the poetry book, the magnet, and the bracelet. still wear the bracelet every single day and i love it more than anything. but then personal stuff happened and we kinda stopped being couple-y again and we’re just friends now but before new years i asked her if she still loved me and she said yes and she said she’d tell me if it changed so ✌️✌️ im assuming it hasnt. even tho my brain is a bitch and everyday its like. today. today is the day. this is when its gonna happen. buT yknow we’ve spent months before without even talking to each other and we got through that still in love, so i mostly ignore it. and tbh i know that actually like, even if we grow apart now (god forbid, but still) we’ll find our way back to each other eventually. like, i’ve said this before and i’ll say it again: nothing, not even the universe itself, can convince me that shes not my soulmate. and even if it turns out i’m not hers, loving her is still the greatest honor i can think of.

another edit: also i started drawing recently and the first person i’ve ever finished drawing was her and also (surprise surprise @c since you’re already seeing all my feelings anyway) bc of my second drawing i almost missed the deadline for one of my midterms (which was a take-home test) bc instead of writing it i spent the entire day before the deadline finishing the drawing which was a secret valentines day gift (secret as in she didnt know it was supposed to be a gift, she thought it was just a drawing inspired by a quote that she loves) and i finished at 2 am but shes 3 hours behind so for her it was still 11 pm which MEANS it was still valentines day so it still counts, i win, lesbian rights!

#mine #l #answered #dont rb #i dont think anyone will but this is personal and i dont want to risk it getting out #i wanna have this bc i love telling people this story and next time someone asks i’ll just send them this post

Hey Sarah, how are u and how is grad school going (if u want to talk about it). I hope you're well. What is your favorite show at the moment?

hi there! i’m doing okay…been staying really busy and then my burnout/depression hits me really hard, in brief but intense moments. but generally, school is going really well; i feel like i’m growing and getting a lot of experience towards teaching, which is what i really wanted out of the program. and next semester is even more hands on, so i’m excited!

i am homesick, though, alas. but—overall, things are going well i think! thank you for asking!

anyway, right now i’m really liking his dark materials. it’s immersive, fun, well acted, well produced, and it feels really grounded in how and what it’s building to. it had a slow start but now that it’s moving forward i want to gobble (pun) it up in one go, lol. world building is something i didn’t know how much i missed, and in particular i feel really excited by the scale of this show. it’s on hbo in the states, but i learned it’s actually a BBC production, which says something about how feasibly grand regular TV can be now!

there are a couple of moments that could use a lot more clarity; things that are clear to a reader of the books vs. what a new viewer might miss. i also was just praising the scale, but it also drives me bonkers when i notice a background character doesn’t have a visible daemon, to the point where it starts distracting me. so. i hope they throw a little more cash at the CGI next year.

i don’t get that sense there will be any kind of frenetic fandom energy behind it, largely being devoid of romance, but not everything needs to stir up three thousand word opuses on some probable-happenstance of how a scene was blocked, lol.

other than that, i’ve been watching anne with an e, which feels quite melodramatic at times but of course that is the point, and i’m glad to see a show aimed at a younger demographic really tackle social justice. also obv watching the good place, which i think was a bit too slow for a final season. it got really good the last few episodes tho. tgp is just a show that works best streamed imo, as it’s just more cohesive to the structure.

i’ve also been watching nancy drew, tho i am behind on it, and i think it’s…okay? it’s got lots of plot holes, and not as good as s1 riverdale, and i’m conflicted about what seems to be a real supernatural element, but it’s also fun and digestible.

i also binged the troy bbc show, which was fine for a sick day and somewhat interesting, but basically disappointing and just made me realize how badly i want a greek mythology tv show with the gods and all the dorky shit i was into as a kid. it was clear that if the troy season did well, they were gonna do the odyssey next, but i don’t think that’s happening. BUT—i heard they’re making a favorite book of mine, circe, into an hbo (?) show. i’m optimistic for now!

OH and also obv i watched the crown. i thought it was pretty good! i am fairly tired of watching episodes where phillip pouts around about how hard his life is, and i’m glad they made fun of him for it but also they still kept doing it anyway. and i like the new charles; idk how true to reality the character is, but they have well and truly made me thirst. don’t really get the camilla thing. margaret continues to be the best part.

tl;dr, i like his dark materials, and mostly i’m just rewatching old faves because my brain is so burnt out from school lmao

also WHERE are my new sabrina episodes

TV show tag

(Indirectly) tagged by @aziraphale-is-ace 😇

Your favourite TV show: Parks and Recreation, One Day At A Time, Good Omens. I also really love Broadchurch and Masters of Sex atm but maybe it’s because I’m either in love with Sheen and Tennant (Axel this is your doing... But also my fault) or because they’re just my hyperfixation atm

Favourite TV show character: Honestly at this point I think it’s Terry Jeffords in b99, Elena Alvarez/Syd in Odaat or Aziraphale in Good Omens

Show you thought you wouldn’t like but did: Ummmm I honestly have no clue... I’m pretty open to anything and I don’t usually have expectations but I’m gonna go with Disjointed because it’s so weird but I’m not even sure if I like it that much when I watch it on my own

Favourite TV show ship: Syd/Elena in Odaat, Peraltiago (b99), Cheleanor (TGP), Ineffable Husbands (GO)

A show you used to like but don’t anymore: Supernatural, sadly I just think that there are too many seasons to keep up with and I fell out of the fandom :(

If you were able to be a character in a TV show, which one would you pick? Andy Dwyer because he’s weird and married to Aubrey Plaza... the dream. Or Aziraphale because I love him so much plus I get to be married to David Tennant AND I get to be Michael Sheen. Win/win.

A show you want to watch but still haven’t started: ööö where to start, I just started MoS and I really need to continue Jane the Virgin but watching it without Finn is no fun... I want to watch Jessica Jones, I watched maybe 3 episodes but bc depression that was a no-go... Same with Dark... A lot of shows anyways xD

A TV show you started way after everyone else: Dirk Gently’s Holistic Detective Agency, I finished the second season and got disappointed when I found out it got cancelled

Last TV show you watched: Masters of Sex (until 1am... Not a wise choice but I don’t regret it.)

I tag @bingham-harry (because i know how much you love tv shows) and anyone who sees this that feels like they want to do it, I indirectly tag you too bxxbxb

#tag game #thanks for tagging me skssksk #these were difficult #because I love so many shows #i probably forgot some #so sorry about that #about me #vici just stop #tv shows #yes i do these on mobile i’m always on mobile #the format might be weird

I kinda think Tony Hale might have a lock on the Emmy supporting comedy actor, anyway. Which I will be fine with(even though I hate the writing on Veep after S5)because he was excellent and I expect that Barry will be on for at least a few more seasons. So there will be more time for Anthony to be nominated, again, and hopefully win at some point.

Yeah, I was expecting Hale was probably gonna win anyway (just like JLD is probably gonna win for actress), even though I thought with Henry Winkler winning last year, he at least had a chance of all the Barry actors, until they nominated 3 at one go)

Barry does have advantage in that its at least a non-network show, which makes it more likely to win awards (unlike B99 and TGP which are always excellent but who can only ever hope for a nom at best, because they reside in the network jail, which can only release one “chosen one” (aka This is Us, which I mean, granted deserves it, but still…) at a time for a day in the sun.

But the Emmys love VEEP , even if it (supposedly, I dunno I haven’t watched it) hasn’t been good in awhile. Just like they love Game of Thrones even if that hasn’t been good in awhile either and the last season was a complete trainwreck.

#le sigh #i wasn't expecting this to come across as so petty #but it is frustrating #i do feel a little better when i think of the veep and got acting nods as consolation prizes for the poor actors #but then i get sad when i think about the fact that cxgf is only ever gonna win in technical categories #even though it's such a groundbreaking and important show #arathesane

A ‘bullet point text reaction’ post thing to the season premiere would be forking good. If you can spare the time in between all the rewatching and RL, which again might be messin with the rewatching. Ps. sexy librarian ftw.

Apologies for the late reply, anon, and thank you for the interest. I gave it a try but apparently I had a lot more rambling in me than expected, so I’m not sure how much the bullet point format will help. Still, I rolled w/ it behind the cut:

obv spoilers ahead for those who haven’t seen + it’s mostly Michael focused but who is surprised at this point? ok, here we go:

Yes. All hail the Sexy Librarian Guy! 👍

and his ~~flawless~~ Australian accent lmao. I am no native speaker but even I could hear it was just… delightfully off. I love this disaster zone demon so much.

and how pleased he was that Eleanor was pleased w/ that particular “intervention”. It’s a small but nice reminder of how making her happy makes him happy now. #oppositeTorturesRule

it’s a v small thing but I also loved the “fast food link”: Michael being ecstatic about the Pizza Hut/Taco Bell combo & Eleanor fantasizing about Chipotle during Chidi’s lecture on Aristotle. It reminded me of that s1 moment when she tells Michael about those Arizona churro dogs and they both just go ahhhhhhhh at the image + Judge Gen ofc (they love fast food in the afterlife)

also also the sweet ache of Michael being entangled in her ticker tape while insisting on nudgy-nudge-nudge her & Chidi together bc that’s how it should be is still pressing hard on my heart thank you v much

but

I think that being deprived of close contact w/ his humans is causing Michael to slide back into puppet master mode again. His motivation is different or “reformed” now (secretly helping instead of secretly torturing) but his methods, his itch to control everything (and failing), and the rigid focus on his goals are… not so much, imo, and I love it bc this is Michael: he is a nerd but also an idiot w/ Wile E. Coyote vibes. Janet tries to reel him in but she can’t. Eleanor was the only one who could control him and she was the only one whose advice he actively sought and listened to, but she cannot be there for him now, so yes, I am getting a lot of S1 vibes from this double ep complete w/ her unintentionally messing w/ his formula by not falling for Chidi & the arrival of Trevor. *rubs hands*

COCOONS

so many

so… squishy

and TODD! I never thought I would see him so soon but I was right: he is the best lava monster and fork you, Shawn, for being a jerk to him when he was nothing but supportive and even brought you guys Dunkin’ Spiders to snack on.

I love Shawn, he is the perfect baddie, and I love that we got another glimpse into how TBP operates w/ all their excruciatingly low-tech gadgets. It’s in sharp contrast to (even Michael’s fake) TGP where everything is so neat, efficient, and high-tech. It’s another nice reminder of how the torturers are also being made miserable in TBP in various ways. I can’t blame Michael for wanting to keep his failing experiment running as long as possible.

Judge Gen (who continues to be a delight and way too relatable w/ her binge-watching of media content) is so up to something, people. I cannot shake this feeling that this whole “Operation Resurrection” is not what it looks like on the surface at all. Maybe it’s an experiment within an experiment sort of deal. I mean, why does she trust Michael of all creatures w/ the monitoring duty at all?? She might be quirky but she is def not stupid. She must know he’s a natural rule breaker who’s incapable of sitting still for longer than 2 seconds and he’s not at all impartial here. The way she set this all up reminds me of the test she gave Jason, and Michael is already failing just like Jason did bc he couldn’t opt out of “playing” due to lack of impulse control and a massive personal bias regarding his favorite team, the Cockroaches. idk what this will mean long-term but I think he’s gonna be in a lot of trouble soon.

speaking of Jason and Michael: theirs is my favorite (sort of bonding) scene, hands down. Again, it reminded me of an early S2 moment when Jason stumbles on a brooding, lost Michael and tells him a dope story about his 60-person dance crew that unexpectedly inspires Michael to seek out Eleanor & Co. The situations are reversed here but it’s an excellent parallel, esp when you compare the two scenes and see the development in both characters and their relationship. Jason is a bit more grounded and Michael is less dismissive and much kinder to him now. I also love Jason’s continued immunity to Michael’s b.s. It’s different from Eleanor’s (his is stupid-based and hers is about being smartbrained) but it works and pushes Michael to just level w/ him and the second he does, Jason becomes instantly receptive. It’s just a really really great character moment that also moves the plot, so it’s basically perfect. Also I think this is the moment when Michael is temporarily pulled from his puppet master mode due to being near one of his human friends again, and his other side peeks out as he lets himself rest a bit - it’s in his body language, too, as he leans back against the bridge railing and has a semi-honest chat w/ Jason.

Michael’s disguises are an eternal source of happiness to me. All of them (and based on promo pics, more is coming). I also love the way he approaches each human bc it is reminiscent of how he steered them during the reboots: to Eleanor he gave a small clue and just let her chew on it and work w/ it. W/ Chidi, he was more direct, posing as a wise helper/guide. W/ Tahani, he targeted her sense of self-worth. W/ Jason, he gave up after 5 seconds and just told him what he wanted him to do.

I doubt his aliases raised many eyebrows, tho, not in a universe where Simone has colleagues called Mrelk and Catapulp :D but Eleanor seemed to have a bit of a “hmm” reaction to the name of Dr. Charles Brainman, so… we’ll see.

Dr. Simone Garnett had probably the smoothest entry into an established character group, imo. I’m usually sensitive to changes like this but it’s like she’s always been here - another excellent casting choice right there. I am not gonna touch shipping issues, thank you, but I love how Simone’s presence, which is a lot of fun in itself, instantly enriched the landscape of relationship dynamics regarding the present, the future and also the past. I feel that every character combination exists somewhere in canon whether it’s explicitly on screen or not, and that’s just an incredibly freeing, resourceful attitude to have on a show w/ this sort of “multiverse” setup, imo. They have the premise, so why not milk its full potential? The writers use relationships as tools to aid character development, they have admitted as much already, and I am looking forward to seeing what other combos they have in mind and how they play out.

despite his limited screen time and despite him spending most of it being flat and emotionless, frog guy aka The Doorman managed to deliver the biggest punch in my heart w/ that reaction to Michael’s gift. I.crumbled. the way his flatness did when he saw the frog on the mug. Thank you, Mike O'Malley.

It’s probably a good thing that they are becoming buddies now bc w/ evil Trevor in the mix, Michael’s gonna turn that Earth entrance into a revolving door. Unless Judge Gen is onto him and steps in at some point. And I still don’t know how he will interact w/ the team now since they’ve all met him already and he was posing as a different person each time. And given his track record, whatever solution he comes up with, Eleanor will see right through him eventually anyway.

ok this is way too long already, so I’m just gonna say that I am very excited for this season, I love the new setup, I miss the fake Good Place but the university environment is growing on me fast, too, and just bring it, show, ok?

my body is ready

#anonymous #the good place #long post #michael tgp #speculation #room w/ a view
