what sort of twisted powerplay is this

I'm currently in my exam phase so I technically don't even have time to make this post, but there are 2 things I want to talk about after s3 e1 of The Gilded:

1. Aurora’s facial expressions during the "you have ever drunken alcohol? Say hello to Satan"-speech

I mean...

2. The absolute NEED I feel for Aurora to just bitchslap Charles at some point in this season

It's so funny watching Kiwis struggle with the concept of celebrating anything in winter

I didn't include Twitch because I'm not regularly active there either, and anyway it is for streaming

Day 2! Lots of fun with Kimblee, a surprising amount of people were really excited to see him XD (it's also kind of funny that the building fire that happened next door occurred while I was wearing him >.>)

Met up with a bunch of homunculi for some photos and then hung out at a bar for more photos food; Envy and Greed had a little worm!Envy with them and it was SO CUTE 😭😭😭

And then went as Zenos to the Final Fantasy concert -- I've been to Distant Worlds several times, but this was my first time going to A New World; it was soooo beautiful. The musicians and the conductor were clearly enjoying themselves so much too, their arrangements were gorgeous and their ending piece was hilarious.

I'm so used to seeing FFVII dominating the cosplay scene at these things, but there were so many FFXIV cosplayers at this one! Everyone looked amazing; Fandaniel nearly leaping over the seats once he spotted me way in the back made my evening 😂

NO FR it makes me so ascared when characters in books are skipping and not doing homework… like i fear i am too much of a nerd for this. what do you mean you skipped every latin class so far. what do you mean you didnt do any homework. I Would Die.

literally!! I understand it is entirely a me thing I'm projecting onto the characters, but I have dedicated about 99% of my life to academics! A significant chunk of my reputation is being an academic freak of nature.

Every time a character skips class, or can't remember a lecture, or just doodles on their homework/tests my heart stops for a moment. And I have to force myself past it reminding myself my experiences are not universal and they can do what they want

same irl sometimes, actually. sometimes my friends will be like yeah i didn't want to go to my morning class so I didn't. and i'm just like. you are free to live your life however you want but i think i'd rather impale myself bodily; i'm too anxious to skip class--every second i'm not there i'm just like. i'm supposed to be there i'm supposed to be in class there's class right now im missing things my routine

anyway. Neil is not gonna become an academic and i'm fine with that however. i cannot stop my little subconscious visceral reactions

I swear to fucking God you guys

You would think that this was the first time I'd ever left home.

I'm actually starting to worry about my brain.

I don't even really want to talk about it because it's so bad. I mean it's FINE, I'm fine, I am at my hotel in Basel but holy shit. It has been a dumb ass 24 hours. All me. No trouble but my own god-given dumbassery, and a little tummy trouble.

[robinsnest2111]

wanted to use my day off to go watch Conclave at the movie theater again but ugh.... i feel so sick and weak... idk if I could even survive the trip there, let alone sit still for 2 hours and take in every breathtaking detail without missing anything or passing out from the pain and exhaustion :^(

Everytime i see that New Girl/Buddie gifset, i think about that post you made (or was it an answer to an anon? Idk) about straight pairings and years-long slowburns wayyy back when season 4 aired.

I'm pretty sure i told you this back then as well, but as someone who has been pretty firmly believing in Buddie endgame since Eddie begins, that post was so validating. We could never (and still can't) know exactly where this story is going, but to see that someone else recognized the pattern and believed that them telling Buck and Eddie's story like that was an actual possibility felt really great.

I'm such a sceptic by nature, but i actively chose to be an optimist this time and i just...can't believe this is our life now. Investing in that clown make-up was so worth it.

Ahaha that was a post I'd made, yeah. It was probably also an ask, too - I've talked about this quite a few times starting in the season three hiatus. The deal for Buddie was sealed, to me, when Eddie said there's nobody in this world that I trust with my son more than you. Because now to give either of them a love interest was to supplant Buck in Eddie's life as the co-parent and earn Eddie's trust with Chris more than Buck had, and would supplant Eddie and Chris as priorities in Buck's life - and the audience was going to have a very hard time accepting that.

Of course I wasn't 100% sure at that point but that was when I went from "okay yeah this is a fun ship but people have the shipper goggles on" to "...wait this actually is a possibility."

From that point we've seen the classic slow burn tropes that I haven't seen recently as we have, sadly, moved away from longer seasons and guaranteed renewals and once-a-week episodes into short, bingewatching, constantly-about-to-be-cancelled formats. I don't necessarily blame people for not recognizing. I certainly don't blame singed and exhausted queer shippers from being unsure. But I admit it is quite the vindication to see that I was right to compare Buddie to seasons-long slowburns that we've gotten with straight couples for decades.

I'm so glad that I could help validate your own feelings. I feel season three was truly the testing ground for Buddie and season four they went in fully prepared to make it canon, and have just been forcibly delayed since then. It's been a frustrating experience at times, and disheartening. We never would've gotten canon on FOX, we would've gotten canon in season four/five like originally planned if they'd been on ABC... etc.

So it warms me to know that with all the ups and downs you felt that my meta and observations could help support your own feelings and be a reassurance. That truly means a lot to me. I feel we're genuinely in the home stretch and it fills me with buoyancy. I'm all floating and giggling ha ha.

Investing in that clown makeup was SO worth it! *honks my big red nose*

okay this is not related to the new ep but it just occurred to me

after byeongmu is arrested (for the second time, at home) sangcheol asks jeongwoo where he wants to go and offers to drive him

which makes me think: 1) jeongwoo stayed at sangcheol's place for however many days BUT they didn't exactly talk about how long that arrangement will last or anything 2) and because of this sangcheol asks jeongwoo where he wants to go (since he doesn't know and won't assume) 3) jeongwoo at some point decides to go visit nagyeom at the hotel and at no point do we get to know what his answer was to sangcheol 4) that night when they leave ha seol to go home alone and have dinner at sangcheol's place it feels like that's just the arrangement they have now

so my question is: at what point did *jeongwoo* decide to stay at sangcheol's place AND when did he tell sangcheol about it? or was it sangcheol's idea? maybe he knew jeongwoo wasn't going to ask so sangcheol offered?

i want to know exactly how that conversation went 🥺

How I noticed I was getting older? I'm not into the young, energetic main character type of characters anymore, I'm more into the always tired of this shit, done with the world, middle aged uncle type of character.

i feel like a cranky toddler about things rn
