Going to tha beach soon will be thinking of Simon also on the beach

[rintinningvt]

Do not talk to me, I'm not over the fact that Betty's existence really revolves around Simon. They both love and care for each other, and grow obsessed when separated, but goddamn- When he told their love story to Fionna, she asked him "So you got on the bus with her?" and he replied in surprise "Why would I-?" Betty Grof's life revolved around Simon, before and after they started a relationship. Heck, even before they officially met. She dropped everything to be with him, losing her sense of self in the relationship. Simon loves her but he didn't (and still doesn't, debatably) have her wants and best interests in mind. They could have gone on that trip together, she could have gone alone but they could've shared some time together on the bus and gone long distance for a while. But they didn't. They were both so enamored with each other and both lost themselves in different ways to their relationship. They were doomed from the start.

we talked a lot about how the incidents in delica absolutely broke ludger, but tbh, casey didnt come out of it unscathed either.

imagine how lonely you must have been to willingly travel to such a distant land just to see someone who was potentially like/similar to you. and when you thought you finally got a best friend who could understand you in a way that no one else could, they turned out to be something you would absolutely abhor with your entire existence. they gave no explanations. they bothered not with excuses. there wasnt even enough time for you to grieve what you just lost because they forced your hands to fight them in a death battle. without a word, they just simply vanished as if your friendship in the past few months meant absolutely nothing to them and you were left alone again, trying to navigate when and what went wrong all by yourself. there was a mix of burning hatred, betrayal, and sadness inside you, but there was no longer anyone for you to talk about it — no one that could understand it. you endured all those feelings for three years with no one to share while chasing after your old-best-friend-now-turned-archenemy for answers because they never gave you the closure you deserved.

even when you finally learned the truth, you realised that they had never trusted you nor your abilities enough to even consider working together. rather, they took on the most extreme measure and didnt hesitate to make you their biggest enemy all the while keeping all their troubles and pains to themselves. best friends, friends, friendly acquaintances, private detective and their client — it turned out that your relationship was neither of them. was it truly your one-sided assumption after all? or perhaps, was it because you failed them when you could have known better and done better? still wanting to keep believing that your companionship was once real, your guilt started gnawing on your conscience. not only you couldnt save them, but your inadequateness also doomed them to their worst fate possible.

then, the opportunity came. you finally mustered up all the courage to utter an apology. even though they acknowledged it, they made no intention to accept your peace offerings. they reminded, "our alliance is temporary". they stressed, "enemies are what we are destined to be". what a fool you were, trying to save a relationship that never existed. either that, or you had never truly been forgiven. they wanted nothing to do with you. they needed not saving by you. it wasnt a closure you wanted but its still a closure you got. in the end, you were left alone once more, with the knowledge of a possibility that you also might not be able to save them again this time.

I love how the mary janes is 3/4 a normal (debateable) friend group that’s also a band with angsty teen (they’re in their 20s) drama between them and lesbian pining going back and forth and 1/4 a creature™ that killed her best friend

[theabyssgazesalsointoyou]

I’m still so in love with boyf riends so them for the taylor ask thingy :)

cardigan & betty are THEIR songs

[somnambulic-thing]

Been daydreaming about your Pop Rocks Eddie and his recent letter to reader 😩 ugh my HEART SOMNA. Was wondering if you had anything planned to continue that beautiful story?

Betty, my most cherished of creatures. <3

I'm not done with the Pop Rocks universe yet. Eddie is not expecting what's in the cards for him. (He should ask Felix about that sometime, he has a deck stuffed under the mattress of his bunk and he'd love to give Eddie some arcana-supported wisdom.) He'll curse me (hehe) many times before I am done with those two.

But he'll also love every second of it.

i have a million and one things to write rn but zosan au based off of the song betty by taylor swift

[lunar-years]

The different ways people interpret the folklore love triangle are sooo interesting (and all of them are valid not trying to say otherwise!) but to me it’s very clear that August & Betty are the high school-era songs whereas cardigan is the retrospective of an older Betty (in her 20s or 30s). To me the narrative reads that Betty & James got back together after his August summer when he kissed her in the garden. They stayed together through their early 20s (~to kiss in cars in downtown bars~ what high schooler do you know who is doing this?) But THEN he left again (this time for school maybe, or a job or something. ~stepping on the last train marked me like a bloodstain~). It’s like, James tried to change the ending the day he showed up in her garden, and it worked for a time, but the ending was always inevitable even from that moment in high school. Peter losing Wendy. Leaving like a father, running like water. Betty knew that at the time (~I knew everything when I was young~) and got back together with him anyway, and now she’s left bleeding, chasing shadows of him.

Also I do interpret the last lines “i knew you’d come back to me” as them finding their way back together for a second time in the end (not about him showing up in her garden), but I think it can be left open-ended as her just being wistful.

betty by taylor swift is such a byler coded song

[everswift]

betty (2020) did more for gender non-conformity than harry styles ever will

[starrazorr]

vaxleth is so great bc of normal ship reasons but also bc it’s like what if the third person in your love triangle was god. and what if no matter what, he is going to end up with god. there is no other end to this story. god loves him and he loves her but he loves you too and he doesn’t want to leave you. but in the end, he will leave you and be with god forever. and you love him anyway.
