Wilford: Please remember that there will be a company-wide New Year's Eve party this evening. And everyone is invited.

Ben: What happens if we decline?

Wilford: I'm going to pretend I didn't hear that, Ben.

Javi: But what if we can't make it?

Wilford: Lets just say as your employer I will be greatly disappointed if you fail to arrive.

Boki: You mean you will cut our pay?

Wilford: Or...other essential things.

Ruth: What will be happening at this event?

Wilford: We dance, we drink champagne, we play a few rounds of Jenga, and then we all kiss at midnight.

Audrey: We...all kiss?

Wilford: Yes.

Jinju: All of us?

Wilford: Yes.

Commander Grey: Like...all at once?

Wilford: Yes, God, am I the only one who's ever been to one of these parties before? We dance with abandon, we drink with gusto, we kiss everyone we can reach at midnight, which is why I would like Audrey on my left, Melanie on my right. And Kevin, if you behave you can--

Melanie: Don't get your hopes up, Joseph. I'm not going to your stupid party.

Wilford: Why not?! Give me one good reason.

Melanie: Because it's not New Year's Eve.

Wilford:...Are you sure?

Ben: Of course, she's sure, you idiot.

Wilford: ...

Wilford: Kevin, what is today's date?

Kevin: January 1st.

Wilford:

Ruth: I'm afraid you missed it, Sir.

Audrey: Better luck next year, Joe.

Javi: Yeah, I'll see you tomorrow, boss, but I've got plans tonight.

Boki: You mean we don't get to go dance and drink and kiss again?

Wilford: Now wait just a minute--what does he mean AGAIN?!

Ben:

Javi:

Boki:

Ruth:

Audrey:

Jinju:

Commander Grey:

Kevin:

Wilford: Melanie?! Did you all have a New Year's Eve Party without me?!

Melanie: ...maybe.

Wilford: How could you?!

Melanie: Very easily since you don't even know how to read a calendar.

*Bonus*

Wilford: I'm going to take Jupiter and have my own Night After New Year's Eve Party.

Kevin: Why don't you just call it a New Year's Party, Sir? It's still a special night, the first night of the new year--well, I guess technically it's the first full night of the new year because last night was the first night. Starting at midnight. You know, when you usually stay up to greet the new year--

Wilford: Oh, shut up! My party is gonna be so much better than yours!

Melanie: I doubt that. The Headwoods hosted.

Wilford: What does that even mean?!

Ben: It means we all got high, you moron. And we put glitter and nitro-glycerin in a bunch of beakers and drank it with some railmans ale. And Audrey taught us all how to dance to a song called Cotton-Eyed Joe. And then we played Twister for four hours while the Headwoods went around poking us with scalpels and sticking cotton swabs in our mouths asking for DNA.

Boki: It was amazing.

Jinju: They served charred kale. I love charred kale.

Audrey: I liked the part where we got to experiment on each other.

Javi: I didn't. They said they'd run out of buccal swabs.

Commander Grey: What kind did they use on you then? I don't remember much after the fireworks came out of the cake--

Ruth: I rather enjoyed that bit myself. I always like a good sparkler or two.

Boki: And the song! I love it when we sing that song!

Wilford: Just stop! I've heard enough. Come on Jupiter. We don't need these traitors.

Melanie: I think my favorite part was the balloons. And watching Jupiter chase them. All. Night. Long.

Wilford: *anguished scream* NNNNOOOOOO!

[gohoubi]

One of the genuinely most funniest things about my involvement in SP is like. The first fic I ever wrote mentioned Javi having a grandma, and like. In the years since I have seen people talk about that as if it was canon and it's like GUYS. I MADE THAT UP. We never got any family for the guy, and he looks like a grandma's boy so. You get that. Anyway I just think that's funny.

Apocalypse Trauma Coping Mechanisms:

Melanie: has a secret hidey hole where she can hear the train, full of things that feel interesting to hold like a comb, a heavy stone, a well worn handle from a spade, a lump of metal that always feels cold. This is definitely the place Ruth starts the resistance after Melanie is gone.

Ruth: hides a notebook under her bed that she writes poems in. She will never ever ever let Melanie anyone read them and doesn't think they're any good but it helps her process. They started as memories of people lost in the freeze but over time she documents their lives, loves and losses on the train.

Till: runs her hands across the shaved part of her head over and over when she gets anxious. If she's having trouble sleeping she lays underneath her bed and counts the slats.

Javi: puts his headphones on to drown out the world. He doesn't always press play, sometimes just the feeling of the pads against his ears is enough. If he knows he won't be disturbed he sometimes puts everyone's blankets on his bunk and crawls underneath to feel the heaviness of it.

Snowpiercer S3E10 thoughts: and then there were two

OH BOY I CANT EVEN PUT MY THOUGHTS COHERENTLY TOGETHER.

This episode was so powerful. And I mean SO powerful. The most Snowpiercer episode and the best episode of the season, hands down (sorry episode 9 my beloved). I got chills and teared up at at least three moments, and so did my mum (who am I kidding, my mum was crying throughout 90% of the episode because she's a softie and I love her).

Oh boy. Ok so, let me dispell with the "negative" comments first, but I thought the turn from "let's fight" to "ok let's separate the trains because we're good friends and we love each other 🥰" was a bit too sudden. It kinda felt like it came out of nowhere, but I can see they had limited time and had to work with what they got, and that the Wilford plan acted as the catalyst.

Second negative comment was whatever the fuck happened with LJ, it felt stupid and while I was devastated when I heard she dies in this episode, I just... didn't feel anything in that moment. It really felt shoehorned in, like the actress got a new deal for another project or sth and the writers were like "oh fuck, we gotta kill her character off so that the actress will be free to do that other more important thing". Anyway, goodbye LJ, my little beautiful psycho bridezilla. Os will miss you and so will I.

ANYWAY. On to the good stuff. Where do I even start? Oh yes, I know. Ruth going with Melanie. Ruth saying "I'm coming with you, I can't leave you to do this on your own can I?". Ruth being willing to stick by Melanie's side, until she brought up Wilford. Like. That was so painful and beautiful in so many ways. "I've redeemed myself too far to go back to this" YES GIRL YOU HAVE AND I'M SO SO PROUD OF YOU. Ruth gets better and better with every struggle, she's literally one of the best, if not the best, written characters in the show, and Alison Wright is a goddess and I will stand by that no matter what.

And yes that's me pushing my MelRuth agenda, especially WITH THE PIN SCENE WHERE RUTH TURNS TRISTAN'S PIN TO AN M AND IT BEING A DIRECT CALLBACK TO S1 OH MY G O D. I got chills. My mum got chills. She doesn't even ship MelRuth (hardcore MelBen stan, lucky her), but she teared up at that. It was beautiful.

Also so proud for Tristan!!!! He moved up from being a meek, anxious underdog to being the head of Hospitality!!! He's so brave and I'm so proud of him and I hope we see more of him in S4.

Now on Boki... My poor man. My baby. He's so broken but when they were all cheering his name like in S1 he smiled 😭😭 and then his scene with Headwood... She's like his mother in that scene I love it. He protecc. If only he hadn't yeeted poor Os like that.

Alex my sweet baby angel... I don't have much to say for her other than that I just love her and I'm happy she made her own choices even if the goodbye scene with Mel ruined me.

So uh... Wilford's out for now, which is a pity bc legit Sean Bean is one of the stars of this show, really bringing some higher quality to it. But then again, he is Sean Bean, so, he's already lasted more than I thought a Sean Bean character would.

No I'm not done talking about Ruth and I never will. The scene where she smacks Boki with a shovel and he turns and glares her down and she's like "mistakes have been made". I laughed so hard. I love this trope of a small(ish) character hitting a big scary immune-to-damage character and the second not even flinching, and the first character realising that "huh, I done fucked up".

ALSO RUTH REUNITING WITH HER RAT BUDDY FROM THE REBEL DAYS. I want to see her keep the rat as a pet in S4. I want her to name him Jimminy.

Ok on to the next thing that I'm gonna talk about for 5 hours: BESS AND TILL MY BEAUTIFUL LESBIANS I LOVE YOU SO MUCH THIS IS HONESTLY THE BEST CANON SHIP IN THE SHOW IDC IDC.

I thought up until the last moment that Audrey would betray Till for Wilford, I really did. And when I realised that she was free of his brainwashing and abuse? It was literally perfect. My heart ached for her, and she did finally come full cycle, she came back to who she truly was and what she did best, and I am so proud of her.

No really because she and Till bring out the best in each other and are really two perfect halves of a perfect whole, they helped find each other and it's just. Beautiful. They invented Soulmatism.

Till running to Audrey in the last possible moment before the separation?? Layton being happy for her and letting her go??? Honestly PERFECTION.

On to a few smaller comments: Miles my sweet baby son. He's grown so much. I literally love him more than anything and can't wait to see him be a kid with Alex and Carly. The goodbye scene with him and Josie and Layton was so beautiful and sad.

Josie and Layton FINALLY being together. That's the only good ship for Layton ever idc.

Ben and Javi... "Adiós amigo...."... I'm not okay...

BEN AND MEL..... LISTEN. Listen I am a MelRuth simp. But BenMel ticks all my favourite m/f ship boxes too and, well, I am a weak bi™. I'm so glad he stayed with her. I know they'll take care of each other... I love them both so much.

Oh another negative thing I gotta say is that Layton...bestie...calm down... Nobody's forcing y'all back into the Tail... Melanie literally only said "hey let's take some time to assess the risks properly and not cross a very dangerous track based on hope alone"... Anyway at least he came around in the end I guess.

And now to them getting out of the train.... That scene needed colour correction, saturation and contrast adjustments SO BAD. The cgi train looked better than the real-ass location they filmed this in. But also seeing everyone being so happy and playing around in the sun and water and earth... Bless their souls. So happy for them!!!

And last but not least... That cliffhanger. What the FUCK was that. What the ACTUAL FUCK. Who's throwing nukes???? Why is Melanie heading there???? What is happening???? Whomst??? What??? How??? QUE LE FUCK????

Also I was about to type "see you next week" and then I realised there's not gonna be a new episode next week... My heart broke a little and I am emotional. But hey, this was a great ending to S3, and S4 is confirmed, so, see you next season for more commentary, and of course, I'll always be around for headcanons and theories and crazy thoughts about everyone's favourite train idiots! So, until season 4, everyone! 💖

How Ben ranks the engineers.

[ray-green-wicked4good]

If Snowpiercer had a pumpkin carving competition, who would judge it, and who would carve what in their pumpkins and who would win?

First of all--I love this! Second of all--I argued with myself for wayyy too long over whether or not Melanie would participate given it would tie up so many resources for a seemingly arbitrary purpose (one cup of cooked pumpkin contains 3 grams of fiber, 2 grams of protein, as well as adequate amounts if vitamin C and E, riboflavin, copper, potassium, zinc, iron, and magnesium--it is a vital part of a healthy Snowpiercer diet. Carving into the pumpkins makes them rot faster, Ben, and exposes the fleshy interior to dirt and insects etc, etc. Why don't they understand that it just isn't practical?) but THEN I decided, you know what? Melanie gets overruled. When Layton takes over, he decides to hold a train-wide pumpkin carving contest to boost morale and promises to give the winners all-you-can-eat passes to the Halloween feast (and first dibs on the pumpkin pie). And Till of course sides with him. Josie appreciates the opportunity for the Tailies. Ruth has never liked pumpkin on principal and Roche just thinks it will be a fun activity to do with his family. Jinju has already lost so much sleep over Layton's slipshod approach to resource management that she falls asleep during the meeting and doesn't vote. Everyone is surprised that Audrey sides with Melanie, voting against the contest, but her big gripe is that she feels Big Alice should be invited to participate too. And once Layton agrees to this stipulation, well--there's just no stopping that pumpkin carving train.

Coordinating with Wilford is...difficult. He insists on being included in the judging panel. Which Layton disputes. And round and round we go.

Eventually, an unbiased(ish) panel is selected--Miss Gillies, Kevin, and Winnie.

The entries are...varied:

- Ruth still doesn't like pumpkins. She refuses to cut into it to scoop out the insides. So she gets some silver edible glitter and sprays it all over her pumpkin. And sticks some teal bows on it.

(Winnie thinks it's pretty. Kevin sneers at the four-in-hand knots she used for her bows.)

- The Headwoods go all out. Mrs. Dr. Headwood carves a traditional looking face on their orange pumpkin. Mr. Dr. Headwood takes a scalpel to a smaller white pumpkin, and carves intricate lines all over to make it look like a brain. Together, they saw the top off the orange pumpkin and place the brain inside.

(Both Kevin and Winnie are creeped out by this. Miss Gillies is impressed.)

- Ben cuts himself twice trying to get the top off of his pumpkin. Melanie grumbles that he's useless with a knife as she bandages him up--then she kisses him and helps him carve a crude looking wave and palm tree.

(Miss Gillies says it looks great. Kevin says it looks like a caved in mess. Winnie asks if it's upside down)

- Roche and Anne carve a half a heart into two pumpkins so that when put side by side the shape is completed. Carly carves a ghost.

(Miss Gillies and Winnie both awww over them. Kevin gags.)

- Everyone on Big Alice has been instructed to carve the Wilford logo onto their pumpkins. But Emilia teams up with Murray to try to carve the continent of Australia. Murray accidentally makes a bad cut and so they have to try again on the back side. It is discernable, but when they put the candle in, it looks awful.

(Kevin turns up his nose. Miss Gillies says good effort. Winnie asks what Australia is and listens with wide eyes as both Murray and Emilia talk fondly about their old home)

- Javi carves a goofy skull into his pumpkin, and then paints around the eyes and nose like a Day of the Dead mask. He uses pink and red and white and purple. It looks very festive. He also gives it glasses.

(Everyone loves it. Even Kevin doesn't turn up his nose.)

- Another surprising entry is Tristan. He carves the face of the Cheshire cat from Alice in Wonderland. The smile is exquisite. The teeth perfectly aligned. With the candle inside, it glows warmly.

(Miss Gillies and Winnie are both very impressed. Kevin notes on his sheet that he suspects Tristan of cheating)

- Annie presents the judges with a perfectly untouched pumpkin. "You don't think I'm gonna make more of a mess for myself to clean up do you?" All of the janitors shake their heads to show their supports.

(The judges move on.)

- Layton is equally unprepared for the judges when they arrive. He has drawn lines on his pumpkin with a sharpie to look like a basketball.

(Kevin makes sarcastic comments about not being surprised. Winnie once again has no idea what it is)

- Josie, however, wows the judges with the intricate web she has carved into her pumpkin. She has even drawn little spiders on several of the pumpkin seeds and has them scattered around the base.

(Kevin's only comment is that he hates spiders. Miss Gillies instinctively launches into a lecture on the life cycle of spiders for Winnie, but Winnie says she remembers all about spiders because of Charlotte's Web. Josie gives her one of the pumpkin seed spiders to keep, which Winnie carries proudly and calls 'Little Lot')

- Boki's entry is a bit on the--abstract side. He and Cherry and the other breachmen drew several 'W's on their pumpkins and then lined them all up in a row. Then they smashed them with mallets.

(Both Miss Gillies and Kevin mostly stare at the breachmen's bare arms. Winnie tells Boki he'd better clean up before the janitors see. They'll be really upset.)

- Jinju's entry is creative. She has taken the bits of pumpkins she cut out and stuck them to the sides and top of her pumpkin to serve as the flippers and head of a sea turtle. The work on the shell has caved in some places, but the overall effect is impressive.

(Kevin thinks it's 'saying too much' but both Miss Gillies and Winnie tell Jinju it's great)

- Pike's pumpkin is...both scary and not. His hand cramped halfway through carving the big twisted moth, so he gave up, and drew the left half with Layton's sharpie. He got the eyes carved out, but drew a triangle for the nose. Then he stuck two forks into the top just for the heck of it.

- Likewise, Z-Wreck and Strong Boy have tried to go the traditional route, but didn't quite meet the brief. Strong Boy's pumpkin has a single eye suspiciously fist shaped. And Z-wreck's nose is way off center--and there are still a lot of stringy insides ruining the candle effects.

(Even Miss Gillies admits it's a little sloppy. But Winnie gives Strong Boy a hug and says she loves it, which makes him smile)

- Till panicked and doesn't know what to carve. She tries making a scary face with pointy teeth, but miscalculated and accidentally shaves off all the triangles for teeth. She had intended to make cat eyes, but can't get the slits right. She would have just left it, but Audrey helps her smooth out the mouth into a toothless smile, and reshape the eyes into hearts. She doesn't even seem to mind that Till got pumpkin guts all over her dress.

(The judges think it's adorable. Kevin is bored and comments on the messy workstation)

- Audrey's own pumpkins are...eclectic. A few have been sequined within an inch of their lives and wrapped in boas. Another has been given a pirate's eye patch and hollowed out and filled with rum. And still another has an intricately carved ballerina--but she is missing a head.

(The judging reviews are mixed)

- Osweiller's carved a wolf into his pumpkin. But when he tried to cut the moon around it as well for effect, he accidentally took out the wolf's head he'd worked so hard on.

(Kevin laughs.)

- LJ's entry is...disturbing. She was inspired by Osweiller's accident and carves a large hole in the face of her pumpkin. She then soaks the cut bits of pumpkin in green dye and wires them together to model into an arm. She shapes the hole some more to look more like a mouth and gives it lipstick. Then she places the arm inside her pumpkin, so it would reaching through the mouth. She glues on two of her father's spare eyeballs and tosses a wig on top. She calls it, 'Ding Ding the Bitch is Dead'.

(Kevin stared at it for a long time, looking pale. Miss Gillies covered Winnie's eyes and moved her along.)

- Miles had chosen a misshapen pumpkin for his jack-o-lantern. His initial cuts are along the bottom, to yank out the seeds and guts. Then he lays his pumpkin on its side and carefully blocks out three sections for his train. It's simple geometry--circles and squares. It turns out pretty good.

(Miss Gillies is very proud of him. Winnie says his choo-choo is perfect. Kevin says it's simplistic and doesn't have enough detail. Josie trips him on his way out. And Melanie trips him again in the hallway. Stupid Kevin.)

- Alex almost doesn't even enter. Wilford had been watching her, dropping subtle reminders that the Wilford logo was elegant and stable and probably the safest bet. And there had been plenty of other crewmembers who knew about her penchant for drawing who had asked for her help. So she had put it off. She made excuses. She didnt have the right tools. Halloween is dumb anyway. It wasn't until a conversation between the engines, when Melanie asked gently if she remembered how they used to carve together and roast the seeds later, that Alex finally made up her mind. She let Melanie carve a star into the top around the stem, and watched her scoop out the insides. She wordlessly hands her mother her drawing. Then she carves. It is very simple. But effective. A bumblebee. Despite herself, she has fun. She gives her bee buck teeth. The stinger is tricky. She let's Melanie try to carve the antennas. She cuts too close and one pops off. Alex laughs.

(Kevin asks what the heck it's supposed to be. Miss Gillies says it's...unique. She thinks she can see the their vision. Wilford scowls.)

**The judges argue deliberate for a long time. It is finally decided they'll name several winners--the scariest they agree is LJ's, the most creative goes to the Headwoods, the cutest/funniest is a tie between Tristan and the Roches and Javi, and the best overall goes to Josie. (Kevin insists the award for dumbest goes to Layton. Wilford is at least happy about that.)**
