#but I'll resist the urge

[randomgodfatherthoughts]

Random thoughts after finally watching The Godfather Part 2.

I finally watched part 2 last week and I really enjoyed it but ultimately I prefer the first movie. That isn't to say that I didn't love it but as a whole I feel that the first part works better for me but that 2 has so many of my favourite moments from the movies.

The casting was impeccable again and I don't think there was a single actor who felt wrong for their role but I prefer the villains in the first movie. I find Sollozzo for example, more interesting and enjoyable than Hyman Roth and Johnny Ola. That's no reflection on the actors, just a personal preference.

The scenes with young Vito were beautifully done and I love how close to the book they were. Robert de Niro was perfect in the role as were young Genco/Tessio and Clemenza. I also really enjoyed the very old school Fanucci as a villain. Overall though as much as I enjoyed them and I'm glad they were included and it was important that they were, but if I had my choice, I'd rather spend more time with the remaining Corleone siblings.

What a loss to cinema John Cazale was. He was truly incredible here and had some of the most powerful scenes.

Al Pacino was brilliant again. My favourite scene of his was when he overhears Fredo saying that he knows Johnny Ola.

Robert Duvall was excellent again. He has great chemistry with Pacino and was never less than utterly convincing as an aging and battle weary Tom who is becoming increasingly alienated from Michael and the business yet retains his loyalty in spite of his growing discomfort with Michael's ruthlessness.

I loved the ever developing relationship between Michael and Tom with all its twists and turns. It physically pains me that we didn't get to see it continue in part 3 because their relationship was such an important part of the whole story.

I loved Frank Pentangeli. What a great character he was. I enjoyed him so much that I didn't even miss Clemenza. His final scene with Tom was one of my favourite moments from either of the movies.

The flashback scene was the perfect way to end it. I have so many feelings about that scene but I'll save that for another post.

dark urge experience so far

I swear, I love the ships with Greygold. Lae’zel and the Emperor. They’re so fun.

But for some reason, seeing the Durge interactions are fantastic. I legit want to know how Greygold would fare against their urges and comforting them.

Okay so-Igotinspiredagainbutoff-topicallyso Like. Comforting Durge who's resisting Da Urge. Fun challenge for Greyg. I, too, would love to know! But. Also. Imagine Companion Greyg having to deal with. A Durge trying to play an evil run.

...This is probably why Greygold wouldn't be able to be an official companion!

Absolutely would not make an evil run fun.

Companion go rogue, go NPC Saboteur. Ditch like Wyll and Karlach? NAY. Becometh such a party-pooper of a menace until death do them part or Durge quickly grows a conscious.

Always appreciate seeing your Gale/Durge content, and am excited to see someone else play Resist!Paladin Durge (I have so many HC about them). Allow me to offer one: I feel like Paladin Durge tries REALLY hard to be the chivalrous knightly type in affairs of the heart (even if they occassionally think about eating hearts). Just the type be in a perpetual one-upmanship battle on who can be the most romantic with Gale.

Thank you, anon! Sometimes it's a bit discouraging to keep posting about a rare-ish ship that the fandom sleeps on or constantly brings up the hand bs. So I appreciate this message!

As for the headcanon - that's a cute dynamic between paladin!Durge and Gale! I haven't considered that until now (I was too busy thinking how cute it would be for buff paladin Durge to protect Gale in battle haha) but I definitely like it! Durge and Gale trying to out-romance each other leading to ridiculously grandeur and elaborate gestures lmao love to see it

Feel free to share more hcs btw!

CONGRATS AUBURN!!! everyone is going through such an amazing milestone; so happy for you all! remember to take breaks in between, okay?? don't push yourself too hard <3

may i request rook hunt x my oc, siren? there's not much known about her, since she's not released yet, but she's a siren (ik im so good lmao) and really calm. she's the quiet to rook's behavior, yet she is sometimes really really like azul.

can this take place after rook's first date with her? the date can be totally up to you, i know you'll make it amazing as always!!!

<3 siren

my dearly beloved, i hope you enjoyed our outing.

you’re quite a dangerous one, getting me to talk of things i wouldn’t normally talk about. perhaps its that supernatural allure to yours, lovely siren of mine.

your song is made up of more than the love notes meant to lure sailors to their deaths. it’s made up of more than superficial longing and worldly pleasures. what i heard in your voice can only be described by the greatest of poets, but i am just a humble admirer of your beauty.

i heard flowers and sweet pastries in your song. i heard sunlit days and pounding heart beats and gentle kisses. i felt the wind and waves of the world around us in your song, made up of all things lovely and divine.

you are an ethereal experience.

i implore you to write back and tell me how you believe the date went. for i am desperate to hear your voice and see you again.

after the first outing with you, i doubt i will be able to ever let you go.

your most loyal servant,

rook hunt.

Got Influenced by the knitting subreddit and bought several extremely cute amigurumi patterns from this etsy store.

In good news I already know I'm going to make and gift at least two of the patterns! In bad news I need to buy yarn. And poly-fill.

Buying the patterns was effortless but buying the yarn has me in decision paralysis mode and I just gotta. Stop being indecisive lmao. I know I only want brown yarn but I keep looking at the pastels.
