"You see, John and I grew up like twins although he was a year and a half older than me. We grew up literally in the same bed because when we were on holiday, hitchhiking or whatever, we would share a bed. Or when we were writing songs as kids he'd be in my bedroom or I'd be in his. Or he'd be in my front parlour or I'd be in his, although his Aunt Mimi sometimes kicked us out into the vestibule!"
"I think Linda put her finger on it when she said me and John were like mirror images of each other. Even down to how we started writing together, facing each other, eyeball to eyeball, exactly like looking in the mirror."

I know it's been weeks since the final chapter came out but I can't get over how much Izuku and Katsuki's relationship objectively drove the story from start to finish, they don't want to exist without each other and they got the happy ending that was ripped away from another pair that All For One heavily projected onto: Yoichi and Kudo(I personally read that as a big brother not approving of how his younger brother chose to run away to be with another man, and how he chased after and killed both of them for it. You know like an older sibling not approving of their kid sibling's dating life).
Genuinely insane that their bond is the entire backbone of the story. Like, that's objectively correct. Even in the times before they were alive, there was a bkdk equivalent setting up the lore.
You can call it rivalries or hope or idealism or heroic spirit or whatever but we all know what this is, it's LOVE
Still mad we aren't getting Bakugou v AFO until next season because that freakout confusing Katsuki for Kudou is the funniest shit AFO has done. Starting with the most recent episode we have officially reached the "clowning on AFO" stage of the war and I love it.

what do you think about the morality of incest
its 9am and i haven’t had coffee
idk man the history and context of incest, whether that be in monarchies or even long before that or even now, is interesting to me ?? i simply find the subject and situation fascinating to delve into ?? familial love becoming twisted and blurred to keep the bloodline clean or literally just because familial love got mixed up with romantic or sexual desire
things can be fucked up and icky and still be fascinating dynamics to explore i suppose is my take but im also a huge tudor era/monarchy fanatic and i think ive become somewhat immune to finding the concept that strange <- as in it does freak me out on a personal level, but on an academic level its just another thing to read and learn about and explore

man that scene where utena tells akio that shes an only child and asks him what a sibling relationship is like made me realize she must be developing such a skewed view of what sibling relationships and familial love must be like, considering all the sibling relationships around her are incestuous in some way 😭.

no no but the insanity that is showing the narcissus (you can't kiss a reflection) scene between paolo and lucrezia which I'd argue is lucrezia seeing a reflection of her brother in paolo (because he'd taken care of the sforza problem at least temporarily) back to back with cesare convincing a hesitant ursula to sleep with him by telling her she might have both his heart and body at her mercy when he really (perhaps unconsciously) means she's a surrogate for lucrezia and then cutting to lucrezia with her skirts pulled up under paolo asking if a good thing can come from a bad thing and then flipping him over, so it ends with her on top and once again it cuts back to cesare and ursula, also having sex with cesare in the dominate position. LIKE REFLECTIONS OF EACH OTHER.

I do think its likely that radagon is messmer and melina's father but i get ???? when people say that they were concieved during marika and godfrey's marriage and were passed as godfrey's own because aside from people patting themselves on the back for "got references" because the only way the elden ring lore community digs up grrm's writing is to say haha incest and haha cuck there is like. Zero motivation on why marika would do that. One could say for love but literally all the evidence we have of how marika and radagon's relationship was like is that she hated his fucking guts lol
