THE ATLAS COMPLEX SPOILERS

ik it’s hinted that he’s alive when james wessex sees platinum blond but i still get irrationally angry every time i think about callum nova’s potential death. he wanted to die of high cholesterol not stupidly being shot by tristan’s dad because he stupidly made a deal he wasn’t even going to go through with.

if ur gonna let callum think all those happy eureka! thoughts right before his “death” and then end up killing him, it’s not bittersweet, it doesn’t fulfill his character arc, it’s just lazy writing. olivie blake wanted her readers to be upset, to immortalize her series with “oh what a great series” but this is NOT the poppy war or six of crows. bc those books had enough of the characters’ actions and fast paced plot to keep the reader engaged and it made the deaths kinda worth it. callum’s death wasn’t worth it.

and then she writes a cheap way out, one that blake hopes to keep people talking about her book more, one that gives her an easy way out if she gets accused of burying the gays (which she does THREE times in the series). she adds the platinum blond to the security camera and she hopes her book will live on with a #ambiguous! just like iwwv did.

i just don’t understand if 1) that was her plan all along in which case it was a terrible idea or 2) she got heavily influenced by social media and the fact that the TV show is in the works (which ugh reading the book it’s so obvious she was thinking about the show the whole time)

and also it sucks that she never told us what callum/tristan did in book 1 when tristan said “i see u” and callum let him in??? idk if she even knows what happened herself tbh

“For four years Gideon had gotten to have a mostly normal life, but now he was back to… Well, whatever life became, Nico supposed, when you had nowhere to go and a serious case of something a less-informed person might call chronic narcolepsy.”

“People like Gideon, who was not technically a person, were not, by most laws of nature, supposed to exist. [...] They, of course, had not cared that their human-looking child would not be technically anything at all that could be registered, and that while he would have medeian abilities, he would not be afforded the class of species to which all medeians were required by law to belong. Gideon wasn’t entitled to any social services, couldn’t be legally employed, and unfortunately couldn’t spin straw into gold without considerable effort. That Gideon had been educated at all was mostly an accident, along with an instance of wide scale institutional fraud.”

I just think so much about those quotes & what it means for Gideon :))) the way he was always keenly aware of how little he fit in, how little he belonged in this world :)))) even if he tried, the system would never let him forget that he isn’t supposed to exist in the first place :)))

the Novacaine energy this gives

[atlasllm]

so i've had this amv idea ever since alejandro saab was casted as macaque..... also because a character this cool deserves their late 2010s lady gaga amv

i was so grateful to receive high quality versions of the LMK episodes by a nice fandom member, and i can finally get started on some macaque amvs! it takes a bit of getting used to making amvs for fandoms i haven't made amvs for yet, but hopefully this is an entertaining enough first try!
