So just finished watching the ep so review. Spoils ahead:
So the episode was ok to me, solid 6/10 one of the better episodes which since this was supposed to be an "extravagant" ep why does it got better quality than the main eps, idk Viv has her moments like this ep and other eps its a train wreck in writing ect.
Mammon worked on my nerves, from design to his movements, personality ALL of him was annoying, which props for an annoying Villian but its Villian I never want to see back again and he's hinted for some sort of return.
Side tangent: Mammon is like the how many-ith Villian to get a return ep/hint at one. It was 1st cherubs, then dorks, then stella/ice twink, striker/crimson now Mammon & according to the leaked storyboards a ghost guy that tries to talk IMP into off-ing themselves... its a flipping lot and cherubs & dorks seem to be forgotten dispite dorks knowing & having hard evidence they exist, flip Viv chill it with your Villian of the week cos its way too many now.
Anyway, Blitz didn't need to be in this ep besides the flashback. Ozzie got him to talk Fizz out of being Mammon's puppet but ultimately Ozzie spoke him out of it & gave him courage to quit/confront Mammon. Even Blitz being a bodyguard/killing people for Fizz could've been any imp. Blitz is starting to feel like Steven from SU, in every ep even tho the ep doesn't need him/ the episode surrounds topics a wee child shouldn't be in (i.e Lapis trauma dumping on Steven & he a child isn't really equipped to handle that situation).
My fave part of this ep was Ozzie and Fizz. Ya'll I legit prayed Viv wouldn't mess these two up and my prayers were answered. Absolutely a joy these two were. Fizz especially what a darling. Loved that small scenes with him and the deaf imp child, l dont know sign language but it looked genuine animated and was just sweet moments.
From their interactions, Fizz's panic attacks/self doubt felt & were genuine... I felt that as someone that has panic attacks from high stress on my studies/life. It was just handled well. Fizz feeling less than and needing to prove himself from 1. his past 2. his appearance, that accident affected his self image/worth so much (why I felt him forgiving Blitz was too hastily done but I digress) & 3. him doing this Mammon contest still to gain/earn Ozzie's love for him cos Fizz believes Ozzie only sticks around because of this fame Mammon gave Fizz. Ozzie finally saying what he loves about Fizz was lovely, wanted that in the 1st ep but ¯\_(ツ)_/¯. Their song was... I didn't like it BUT the message in it was beautiful. Lastly Fizz saying fuck you to Mammon from the courage/strength Ozzie gave him was a nice send off... also Ozzie saying he loves Fizz ah ngl that made me smile agh I just love them. I want to see them more than the Stolitz show but thats only a wish. Props Viv, you get 1 brownie point not messing this up.
Last findings, the ep was bloated as hell my soul Viv please stop cramming so much in an ep, this one is 30 mins long & yet still felt bloated. Pacing was a motherfuka damn it was bad & the swearing was jarring (its a Viv written ep I don't expect any less but still gonna point it out) and the comedy wasn't so prominent in this ep, Blitz/Mammon gave some comic relief but in the best and worst ways:
The way the VA delivered this line "to be fucked" made me laugh, the line is cringy but the delivery lol gold
Tumblr media
Aand Blitz, my soul shut the fuck up & get out this ep. Last ep & this one he said something so agonizingly cringe I pulled my face
Tumblr media
The world of HB is legit American hell or earth just painted red since Fizz named all these places in America just "hellified" where his fans come from.
And very last, congratulations Salem glad you got the cathartic send off you deserve from working under Viv, truly fuck you "Mammon" indeed :) also glad they credited you this time.

Steve Rogers Trauma: A TED TALK
Why is it that any kind of commentary/analysis on Steve Roger's trauma has to be met with comparisons to Bucky or Tony's trauma? Or most of the fanfics I read completely gloss over Steve's trauma?
Some of y'all legit do not care or are blind to Steve Roger's trauma throughout the Captain America & Avengers films and it shows. And this isn't hate to any fanfic writers but rather an observation of most stucky and stony fanfics which seem to minimize Steve's character & trauma in favour of highlighting their fave's. And of course it's fine that people want to write about Bucky or Tony or even Nat's trauma, but MOST TIMES* I've read these fics and they all have an intentional disregard for Steve's traumas.
And this speaks to the wider discourse around Tony, Bucky & Steve- the three characters most written about in mcu fanfics.
Because why is it that anytime I bring up Steve's PTSD or his illnesses or the hell he would've gone through pre-serum, people always HAVE to add in their 2cents about, "well yeah & Bucky went through worse." Like.???? No, I'm not talking about him.
I absolutely love Bucky and he's one of my favourite characters in both the comics and the MCU but, respectfully, this ain't about him.
I'm talking about Steve and his life. The crap he would've had to deal with both in public and at home. Especially the horrors both he and Sarah would've gone through because of Joseph Rogers who was a terrible person and an alcoholic who beat up on his wife and sickly kid.
And even post-serum when he's completely healthy and living in the future now, I'm still seeing popular narratives about "Yeah he's alive now & hasn't gone through half of what Bucky's endured over the past 70yrs." OR "He's had it easy compared to Bucky who was being tortured by HYDRA."
Um, no one's saying Bucky's treatment under HYDRA was a good thing??? But we're talking about Steve here, not Bucky?
And how he was literally frozen in a state of purgatory & how traumatic it would feel to be ripped out of it and then basically thrown to the new world on your ass without any kind of therapy or help. Most people make it seem like Steve was in a Sleeping Beauty kind of sleep and then woke up completely fine. And I will admit the MCU has been the main culprit of that narrative because they deleted so many scenes that humanized Steve Rogers, that now the gen pop thinks:
he's perfectly fine
has zero trauma
should complain about nothing
hasn't had it hard like Bucky or Tony
is a lesser hero because of all of the above
I recently had a convo with a friend & we were talking abt the scene in Avengers 1 when they were all at each other's throats. And they said that Tony was right about Steve being a laboratory experiment & everything special about him came out of a bottle. And I'm like... yeah nah, that's the lazy ass writing that Whedon perpetuated that now makes Steve one of the most misunderstood heroes & people in the MCU. Because he was special before the serum because of his consideration of others. He was special because not only did he hate bullies, but he also went out of his way to protect those that couldn't protect themselves KNOWING what that confrontation might cost him as a chronically sick person. Tony needed a whole ass arc about literally witnessing & living first hand what his weapons were doing to innocents like Yinsen & his people, to change his ways. Steve didn't have, nor did he need any of that to make him special. (AND BEFORE THE TONY STANS COME FOR ME, I LOVE TONY, HE'S LITERALLY ONE OF MY FAVES IN THE MARVEL COMICS & MCU) But this hatred for Steve is ridiculous.
And once again, it's the MCUs fault because they made Tony the ultimate hero of the Avengers at the expense of Steve Rogers' character. Him being able to prove he was "worthy" all along by lifting Thor's hammer was a cheap payoff in the end, much like the entirety of Endgame was. Thanks for coming to my Ted talk.

Y'ALL I'M STILL TRYING TO PROCESS IT WAS SO GOOD AND I'M SO TIRED but here are some of my thoughts from opening night recalled to the best of my abilities:
When she started with Miss Americana I legit thought I was on hallucinatory drugs
When she then proceeded to sing multiple songs from Lover BEFORE explaining that we were doing one era at a time, I was kinda panicking thinking this was Loverfest
I thought she was going to use the Lover house throughout the entire show as a way to change between eras and I almost flung myself to a premature death
THE ARCHER??? was so good and at this point I started to recover after learning we were just in the Lover section
The entire Evermore section was INSANE like... again I thought I was hallucinating??? TIS THE DAMN SEASON AND THEN MARJORIE?? TWO OF MY FAVES?? WHEN I TELL YOU I WAS ON THE FLOOR
I know people are mad Speak Now only got one song but realistically we had to sacrifice something and when she walked out in that big ass dress I once again cried because it was pure nostalgia and it was perfect imo
ATW10 was one of the most powerful live performances I've ever witnessed
The reputation section was a bolt of adrenaline and I was GAGGED by her performance of LWYMMD with all the dancers as old Taylors...
She did so much from folklore and I did not survive any of it... Betty live was like a dream come true... I think I blacked out for half of this section
I WAS THRILLED WHEN SHE SET THE LOVER HOUSE ON FIRE DURING BAD BLOOD... SHE REALLY SAID ENOUGH!!!! THE HOUSE IS DEAD!!!!!!!
The entire Midnights section was a total slay but particularly Mastermind and Vigilante Shit were sooooo good???? The way she performed both of those songs...
MIRRORBALL ACOUSTIC ON THE GUITAR WAS THE NAIL IN MY COFFIN IT WAS LITERALLY ME AND TAYLOR IN THE ROOM AND NO ONE ELSE AND I WAS SOBBING A DREAM COME TRUE!!!!!!!!!!
Generally speaking the stage was insanely cool, and the visuals were stunning... Like every moment of the production was absurdly good

Can you list the best straight couples in Thai movies or dramas in terms of chemistry?
sure :)
MY FAVE THAI DRAMA STRAIGHT SHIPS
KRATHING & DUCHESS (GIRL NEXT ROOM: RICHY RICH)
Tumblr media
these two are just my faves, not just bc I love offmild, but also bc their story is simple, fun & wholesome, while still having some depth about generational poverty & superficiality. the chemistry is top-tier & this two are forever my fave thai straight pairing :)
ZEN & YUI (FABULOUS 30)
Tumblr media
another off ship, shhhh I'm not biased he just slays so much it's not my fault! zen & yui are quite similar to krathingduchess in the sense that they're generally a very funny couple, yet they actually tackle a lot of issues about self confidence, appearances, intimacy, etc. they're not perfect but they're ADORABLE & I love them sm!
SOMCHAI & LINN (ANGEL BESIDE ME)
Tumblr media
angel beside me is my fave straight thai drama bc somchai & linn are SO beautiful & wholesome. but similarly to the other previous ships, this show deals with a lot of deep issues related to poverty, toxic family members, etc. it's truly such a beautiful underrated show & absolutely deserved to pop off when it was released!
MEW & NEO (3 WILL BE FREE)
Tumblr media
despite being the most underrated relationship in the 3wbf throuple, mew & neo are extremely iconic! first of all, yes mild lapassalan & joss wayar are two of the hottest people I know, thanks for asking, they make my bi heart very happy 😌 but also I love the evolution they have from enemies to lovers, and being both sex workers means they understand each other very well! they're just very cute together & I love them :)
SILA & MEEN (HUA JAI SILA)
Tumblr media
not only is hua jai sila my favorite lakorn, but it's mostly bc of the pairing. I don't usually love pairings where the man is tortured & cold while the woman is perpetually kind & loving, but here it really worked for me. the chemistry is straight up FIRE, and you truly come to believe these two are such a beautiful & powerful team together. absolute cuties, and the fact that the female lead was a tor fan before that lakorn??? ADORABLE!
TANNAM & TEE (HAPPY BIRTHDAY)
Tumblr media
to talk about a tragic couple (which also contains mild bc she owns this list lmao), we have happy birthday. mild & push are not only INCREDIBLY good looking together on top of being ABSOLUTELY TOP TIER actors, but the whole writing of this show will take your heart & play squash with it lmao. the chemistry is truly out of this world, and I cherish this show so much. the side ship of tonmai & his best friend (pluem purim & jan ployshompoo) is also ADORABLE!!!
VEE & KATE (THE REVENGE)
Tumblr media
with how much I always scream about my love for this show, I hope that everyone knows by now that the revenge is one of the best thai dramas EVER MADE. one reason why I enjoyed this show so much, is that it balances legit the most gruesome murder story with a very cute & wholesome love story, AND IT WORKS. with mook worranit & non chanon being multiple times in this list which makes them thai romances experts, they really deliver a beautiful chemistry & love story. watch after the ending credits of the last episode, though!
BADZ & SMILE (BOY FOR RENT)
Tumblr media
there is a reason boy for rent is one of the only straight gmmtv shows to have amassed so many millions of views, and it's that, on top of the hot shirtless men, badz & smile are absolutely one of the cutest pairings ever! their love story is a bit complicated but mond & fon's effortless chemistry really makes every viewer get attached to them immediately!
ANNIE & CHEN (MAMA GOGO)
Tumblr media
here we have a very unexpected ship but SUCH a goodie! annie & chen are a funny, opposites-attract kind of ship but their chemistry is fire & they were just absolutely adorable! a truly wholesome pairing that will always put a smile on my face :)
AOM-AM & MIKE (FULL HOUSE)
Tumblr media
now bringing it back to an OG iconic thai couple, we have full house! while this show has a lot of flaws, its pairing ISN'T one of them! the chemistry is top-tier, the story very touching & you spend so long with these characters you truly get so attached to them. absolutely adorable pairing :)
YING-YING & KORN / PAT & NOINA (46 DAYS)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
now we have three recurring actors on this list at once! 46 days is such a cute show, it's chaotic, a bit surface-level, yet SO much fun! the main pairing composed of baifern & non is chemistry-central and absolutely great, but of course the side pairing of offmild (again! can't believe they got 2 shows together, it was such a slay!) stole my heart :)
KIEW & CHOMPOO (TO ME, IT'S SIMPLY YOU)
Tumblr media
here we have another lakorn, that is this time barely a romance & more about a tight-knit community working together for a common goal & being cute, but the ship truly is TOP-TIER! one of the least problematic & toxic, and probably the most wholesome pairing I've ever seen! they're just too pure for this world & I absolutely love them :) (also green (kiew) & pink (chompoo) is my fave color combo hehe <3)
KLUAY & PUP (LOVE AT FIRST HATE)
Tumblr media
you want chemistry?? YOU GOT IT! this is a pretty classic enemies to lovers thai story, very reminiscent of lakorns, but made better by the incredible male lead (I fell in love with him during this show, man's HOT!) & the really great chemistry between the actors! truly one of the best thai dramas for it, and even though I wasn't a big fan of all the tropes, this is one of the best thai straight dramas in my eyes!
BANK & LIN (BAD GENIUS)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
even though I already loved the non x aokbab ship in the movie, in terms of series, jaonaay & juné were so good together! they even made a song together afterwards hehe, so cute! bad genius is such a good movie & it's also an amazing series, and even though there's a lot going on the brewing romance between bank & lin is SO GOOD! truly a show I'd recommend no matter what anyway :)
MIELLE & KIM (SENIOR SECRET LOVE: BAKE ME LOVE)
Tumblr media
on the theme of chemistry, here we have a show that isn't exceptional but is absolutely CARRIED by its pairing! loving both actors from this pairing, it's no surprise they put their whole USSY in the chemistry, like I genuinely love this show bc they're too fucking cute!!! would recommend for a short, wholesome & easy watch :)
PHAT & CHER (CATCH ME BABY)
Tumblr media
with the same female lead as the previous ship, we have my favorite straight recent pairing! not only is catch me baby such a fun show that I tremendously enjoyed, but the romance aspect is so cute & the chemistry??? PALPABLE! really such a lovely pairing I swear!
TEE & EL (BANGKOK LOVE STORIES 2: PLEAD)
Tumblr media
once again our king non chanon is back, and here we have a story that did kinda disappoint me towards the end but is mostly amazing with a very powerful couple! emotions are high in that series, & I'm also so glad we get to see a really beautiful sex scene between them where usually thai dramas are more conservative, mostly regarding women. the cinematography of this show is also absolutely beautiful!
KRAAM & MAY (THE STRANDED)
Tumblr media
I'm gonna try not to cry even though this makes me think of beam papangkorn's death, but the stranded truly was such a special thai show that deserved so much better. this pairing is a bit cliche but made better by the beautiful acting & chemistry beam & pat presented, as well as the beyond perfect cinematography (I think about the firefly scene shown above approximately once a week!) in my opinion, this is one of the most important thai dramas that is a must watch, so I would absolutely recommend it!
MINT & BEBE (MINT TO BE)
Tumblr media
mook strikes again, this woman is incapable of having bad chemistry with anyone LMAO. this show is also one of my favorite thai straight series bc it's short, cute & very entertaining. the chemistry between mook & krist is also REALLY good, and the show was quite revolutionary in terms of pda for a gmmtv series at the time. I definitely recommend for a wholesome time :)
SKY & HOSHI (MY DEAR WARRIOR)
Tumblr media
idk who thought of pairing up baifern & oab but they ATE! if you like scifi/supernatural shows, this will probably be right up your alley! I personally didn't really love this show even though I enjoyed a lot of aspects, but sky & hoshi truly were a great ship that I remember fondly! the chemistry was amazing & oab looks the hottest he's ever been in that role!
TOEI & TAR (HORMONES)
Tumblr media
I couldn't talk about thai straight series without mentioning one of the most iconic ever, hormones! out of all the pairings, there is only one straight one I really loved, and it's toei & tar :) I'm always a sucker for the friends to lovers trope, but I thought this one was especially well done, especially considering toei & tar are some of the least unlikable characters from the show lol. they're very cute & wholesome and I thought I should include a high school love story in this list!
EMMA & PORSCHE (SENIOR SECRET LOVE: PUPPY HONEY)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
despite being an offgun stan, I have to admit: I prefered porschemma to pickrome in puppy honey season one lol. despite being ruined in season two, emma & porsche are such a cute & wholesome ship, and them being reunited by dogs, which I'm obsessed with, only made their story cuter!

OKAY SO, last night was a good show. it's clear that Depeche Mode knows how to throw a tour and, from the setlist to the performances, everything is perfected to be the most engaging and fun time for everyone in the audience. i was a bit grumpy for the first few songs (i'll explain) but then it started raining mid-Sister of Night and it really felt like everything was coming into place. i sang, clapped, did everything i could to make this evening fun which i think worked for a bit so i'm still glad i went! i was very lucky (or more like i waited 8 hours) to be placed near the central stage so i got to see Dave and Martin closely for the few songs they did there, including Waiting for the Night, one of my fave from Violator. we didn't get Home on the setlist but we got a Question of Lust so yay for more Black Celebration! (i mean...we got Stripped too. she (the song) is the moment.)
Overall, i'm glad i got to see Depeche Mode. if you worry about the show/performance, know that they're better than ever.
now for the downside : people were HORRIBLE. the crowd was obnoxious, mean and uninterested in the show. it's legit the first time i've ever seen an opening band so pissed off at the crowd. literally no one moved. no one clapped. it was just me and a bunch of teenagers that i can't thank enough for making the show more tolerable with how joyful they were during the whole thing. during depeche mode, i got pushed, stared at and yelled at just for wanting to dance a little during the catchy songs. that's why i always choose the pit!! come on, why go there if it's to stand and stare without energy. i also heard people saying younger generations weren't real fans because they haven't seen them enough (before complaining that all new music is bad™ and about sex lmao. what are you doing at a dm show old conservative people). i've heard people telling that goths were out of place here. i've seen others trying to cheat and grudge to be nearer to the stage. like how have we come to this??? isn't it supposed to be a fun thing we all do together?? shouldn't we all sing and dance and have fun?
at the end, i had to leave the crowd during the encore because i suddenly felt my heart beating fast and my hands started shaking. i knew i couldn't count on people aorund me if i fainted so i went to security and then got to see Never let me down again and Personal Jesus from afar. it was probably dehydration and... just me being tired for waiting eight hours in line.
i don't think i'll ever go to a stadium show again, it's not my kind of experience nor my kind of crowd.

Fandom Tag Game
This was really fun to think & reminisce about! Thank you @lupeloto for putting this together, and @suzy-queued @energievie @michellemisfit @creepkinginc @stocious for tagging me!
************ Name: Julia
First fandom you became a part of: Well this was all pre-internet, so the fandoms were all in my imagination: The Goonies & Anne of Green Gables (the PBS series) are my earliest ones. I didn’t even know who to talk to about it back then, so it was a lot of lone-fangirling in middle school.
What was the first TV show fandom you joined: OK look I had this Days of our Lives phase where I found this one message board (I haven’t watched in a LONG time, but Steve & Kayla -who are still on the show- were such a hot couple back in the day)…… and then I did the same for The Office around the time the last writers strike was happening… But my first legit modern-day fandom was probably Schitt’s Creek a couple of years ago, which was the first time I sought out community on socials like Reddit and Facebook. 
How old were you: very much all over the place lol
Latest TV/Movie fandom you became a part of? Shameless 
A tv/movie fandom you haven’t joined but like to creep on? When Our Flag Means Death first came out, I loved all the gorgeous fan art. They really need to release season 2 already…. 
Your favourite fandom: Oh this Shameless/Gallavich fandom is VERY special. Granted I don’t have a ton of experience in online fandom spaces, but this community has been really incredible, so warm and welcoming and CREATIVE omg.  
The tv show that gives you the most brainrot? Shameless for sure (but you know, just because of that one couple). I do get that anxiety from time to time that I’ll never get brainrot like this again – it’s really fun to move around and create in this space, and I love the inspiration.
The fictional couple that gives you the most brainrot? See above. 
Guilty pleasure fictional couple? Very un-guiltily please see above. But I’ll always have a place in my heart for David & Patrick from Schitt’s Creek, and Jim & Pam, of course, from The Office. I’ll throw my Days of Our Lives fave in here too because they were the first to introduce me to my beloved tropes - enemies-to-lovers and epically drawn-out, will they/won't they angst.
Guilty pleasure TV show? Is this where I admit to watching Just Like That so I can complain about it? It’s no Sex in the City….. 
And finally something that made you happy this week? I started a new audiobook - Last Night at the Telegraph Club, and it’s set in the city where I live. I always love reading books or watching TV shows & movies where I recognize the set! Also re-audiobooking Red, White & Royal Blue, and the narrator is so much fun to listen to.
**********************
Hello friends, if you'd like to play 🪄 @deedala, @bawlbrayker @depressedstressedlemonzest @too-schoolforcool @gallawitchxx @sisitrip @callivich @ms-moonlight-inn @palepinkgoat @shinygalaxyperson @sweetbee78 @sickness-health-all-that-shit @sleepyfacetoughguy @grumble-fish @look-i-love-u @thepupperino @francesrose3 @ian-galagher@gillyp @starcrossedsoulmates84 @jademickian @tanktopgallavich

˚₊· ͟͟͞͞➳❥ .ೃ࿐ ┈┈┈┈ : . . . . : ─ hola, qué pasa. i’m chloë [she/her], biromantic[?]/ace-spectrum hispanic [white/mex] ladee who enjoys masc titles. here’s my main selfship carrd [still in progress]. here’s my general f/o list. here's my fandom ref drive. please like this post once read!
the guys shown above are My Darlin's, my main F/Os that I have super bad brainrot about and who are just part of my main squad but with a fancier label. rubs eyes. in order, they are...
Carlos Oliveira; Resident Evil 3 [Remake]
Pavia; Reverse: 1999
Miguel O'Hara; Specifically ATSV's Version*
Charles Smith; Red Dead Redemption 2
Lúcio Correia dos Santos; Overwatch
Lee; Arknights
Rei Sakuma; Ensemble Stars!!
the asterisk is that i largely use comic lore in reference to Miguel. in case that needed to be said. i just needed to put that out there i guess??
my terms on sharing are that i'm not comfy, and if you're too lazy(/nm) to read below, the gist is dni if we share, and if you reblog from someone who shares my f/os of any status, i'll just softblock for my mental health because i. am a bitch when it comes to sharing. sorry.
in the same sense: if you share any of my friends' f/os, i either will block or not follow just for their sakes and i have a personal bias when it comes to my friends' stuff. if that makes sense. probably not. here's the link to the list, which can be updated at any time.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
˚₊· ͟͟͞͞➳❥ .ೃ࿐ ┈┈┈┈ : . . . . : ─ i’m specifically writing my new pinned to sound like i lack enthusiasm, because, y’know, i kinda feel that way a lot. don’t be intimidated, i don’t bite unless you give me a permit to do so, otherwise i’ll just stare at you from across the room. i’m not new to selfshipping in the slightest, and i’ve been doing this shit since i was a kid. i heavily love fictional characters and i see them as my bitches who should bow down to me. that’s a joke. i’m bowing down to them. sidenote: i put the question mark by biromantic because i have no idea if i’m aroace or not. sigh.
˚₊· ͟͟͞͞➳❥ .ೃ࿐ ┈┈┈┈ : . . . . : ─ i like a lot of things outside of fictional characters who make me wanna eat grass. i love to draw, i love to write, i love to design, i’d fucking love to not have seasonal allergies. i also really fucking love animals, however, don’t rely on me for knowledge because i obviously don’t know everything about anything. my faves are orcas and foxes! my favorite foods are salmon nigiri, tamales, and conchas. awkward thumbs up emoji.
˚₊· ͟͟͞͞➳❥ .ೃ࿐ ┈┈┈┈ : . . . . : ─ my dni and other stuff can be found on my main/introductory carrd. fandom-wise, you can find my info and trivia and all your need-to-knows on my ascendaries carrd.
˚₊· ͟͟͞͞➳❥ .ೃ࿐ ┈┈┈┈ : . . . . : ─ yes, i’m aware i have a rain theme going on. personal ties and i love the weather. shrug emoji.
˚₊· ͟͟͞͞➳❥ .ೃ࿐ ┈┈┈┈ : . . . . : ─ yes, i'm aware a lot of my selfships have repetitive themes and tropes. those themes and tropes are very comforting and also largely stem from personal things which is why i indulge them. tldr: if you hate childhood friends to lovers, hooh, you're gonna hate me.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
little tidbits about me, i suppose. a good chunk of these are taken from my old pinned.
- ͙۪۪̥˚┊❛ i quite literally use myself in all selfships, and prefer each fandom variation to not be called a "self insert". it's legit just me befitted for a fandom (usually a f/o, ie, if a f/o is an eldritch horror then fuck it i am too) 😔 ❜┊˚ ͙۪۪̥◌
- ͙۪۪̥˚┊❛ i have a lot of interests and tend to show an interest in a lot of things at once— while i may not know everything about a media, i do immediately go searching for character analyses as well as consume media as much as i can. i do have an attention problem which involves finding it hard to sit down and binge. but i will read the info as much as i can, i do tend to like reading more than watching/playing. ❜┊˚ ͙۪۪̥◌
- ͙۪۪̥˚┊❛ again, as previously stated, i am a hispanic selfshipper. however, i look whiter than one would assume, and kinda act it as well. while meals and pronunciations are a big deal to me[minus the joking mispronunciations which earn me 'oh she's white' stares; listen it's kinda funny], i'm not fluent in spanish [i know a few phrases…] nor do i have many experiences many others may have. i admire a lot of the traditions, however i did not grow up with them. i’d love to meet other hispanic selfshippers though, y’all are cool and i’m giving you all a little kiss. ❜┊˚ ͙۪۪̥◌
- ͙۪۪̥˚┊❛ yeah, it's actually spelled “Chloë”, in case you had to know. ❜┊˚ ͙۪۪̥◌
- ͙۪۪̥˚┊❛ i love to indulge my friends and mutuals as best as i can! my inbox is always open for rambles and such, so don't be afraid to talk to me. i also don't mind infodumps on any of my faves because you'd more than likely help me understand them more anyways, which is always welcome. ❜┊˚ ͙۪۪̥◌

EC tekkno 2024 show experiences
I started writing this in a PM to @ao3littlelesshuman's simple question about "how were the shows" but hey, what the hell, tumblr is for diarizing right. Not reviews of the shows audio-visual-performance wise, but rather my experiences.
Berlin 2024.02.02: met some chill people from a village in Brandenburg just by asking to sit near them on the floor, ended up chatting, and we were in about the 3rd-4th row. Which, barricade has its charms, but back in that space was the best for actually being able to dance and enjoy the show as a show, not a fandom thing, if that makes sense. Just dance my ass off, jump around, do all the crowd interaction stuff that's harder at the barricade. Sing at the people around me and have them sing back. It felt the most collective in that sense. It was also my first time and I hadn't watched any full shows before to avoid spoilers, so there was the extra sprinkle of surprise-joy. Was near where the Daniels mostly are and loved watching them, it was so cute. As a show, I think there were some rusty bits / Nico specifically was struggling with his over-ears and hearing himself and I think it showed in a few of the tricky high bits. I really felt for him </3 Nevertheless, I think it was the most pure fun of the 3 shows I attended.
Vienna 2024.03.01: I went into this one in the wrong headspace, I think: after Berlin, I was thinking like "okay that was great, but now that I'm going to experience it again, I have to do an even better job of experiencing it, but I was conflicted as to what that meant - I was obsessing about getting the right place, filming the right things (never thought I'd be a concert filmer, but I loved having snippets from the berlin show as memories...) - and I got so caught up in these details that I forgot to like, have fun. I was too focused on getting shit done on a checklist, or like, getting a good grade in Concert Attendee. I also didn't make any friends, either in line or at the barricade, and I did try a bit. Everyone just kinda kept to themselves or their own little groups. Kinda tracks with my experience that Austrians are very polite but not very friendly. Upsides: I did get to film all of Parasite, my absolute fave (was obsessed with acid house as a Teen). And I did have one magical moment during MC Thunder, where Nico looked at me, I saluted him, and he pointed at me and grinned. I did indeed die. Seeing Tank get called up by Nico and Kevin to be applauded by 14?000 people was also extremely wholesome. Got a decent kiss video too :) and David's solo a second time. Still, would say this was my least favorite show/experience.
Dresden 2024.03.02: What a wild experience. I had no ticket and so on the way from Vienna to Berlin, decided to just refresh kleinanzeigen until I found one and I had until the Dresden stop at 3pm to find something. Thankfully Stefan from Hesse posted a spare at 8:34 and I replied at 8:36 and he seemed legit so...there we go. Figured it would be harder to get scammed because we were going to meet at the venue and do it in cash (face value by the way, thank you, you legend). Once we chatted back and forth booked a hostel. When I got in, went to the hostel, changed immediately (outfit status: smelly), headed to the venue, realized there were no trams, so walked until i found a rentable bike, and biked in my wacky ass outfit.
Then, god bless the Discord, got to the front of the line. Mad dash, made centre barricade just a bit to the right (sadly right behind a giant lamp on the stage, which prevented a bit of interaction), and set my intentions of: don't worry about anything but having fun. And so that's what I did! Barely filmed, just rocked out. And GOT filmed, by Christian and Dajo :) Also got a lot of crowdsurfer induced bruises which was really fucking annoying, I swear I lost half my hair volume before I had a chance to put it up. The show was sick by every performer - openers sounded better than in Vienna, EC sounded amazing shoutout bollo, I'm sure those acoustics were Not Easy (it's basically a big convention hall, no seating). Had kinda a warehouse rave feel, in fact. Highlights: Christian filming me for ages (during Hate/Love I think?), lots of outfit compliments, all the emotion from last show of the tour, Nico referring to the piano as being based off Kevin, Kevin leading the WGTM singalong at the end instead of Nico, seeing Nico's crazy fucking blue/green eyes from that close, seeing the kiss from up close (almost missed it thanks to crowdsurfers), and most of all: the special intimacy that comes from being barricade and singing back at the singers who are singing to you.
And doing all that with new friends :)
There was a lot more chaos in Dresden that there's no need to detail, but I think altogether if Berlin was the most pure fun, Dresden was the most meaningful show to me.
Finally, some shots from my journal. My practice this year now that I've decided to really see as much live music as I can is to combat my memory issues (and my guilt about spending money on something as fleeting as a concert) by writing down everything I can remember after a concert, using pics and film to help. Dresden and Wien were composed on the road so aren't as cute, but nevertheless, I really am happy with this practice and would recommend it to anyone.

got tagged by @artofmisi (via my main, but i hardly textpost there so) thank you <3 tagging forward - @coldshrugs, @myreia, @greyyourwarden, @thuviel, @thevikingwoman
fave ships: right now it's absolutely hal/fi (and all my other bg3 ships, but mostly those guys) although I'll admit I've also been feeling very soft about Rose and The Doctor of late. (obligatory g'rahye mention also. so much oc/canon in this house dfkfjgnf)
favourite color: T^T I can't just pick one I'm like. I love green, I've loved greens of all varieties since I was a kid. But blues as well. and maroon. and burgundy. and purple. and brown. and mustardy yellows? augh. I love so many colours and it really just depends on my mood and the context?
favourite food: many. I'm a fiend for anything noodly though, whether it be some variety of linguine-based pasta dish or pad thai or literally just good old instant noodles. I love a noodle.
last tv show/ movie: Mozart in the Jungle. Which was a delight and I honestly think it deserved more seasons. It's like The Devil Wears Prada, but set in the classical music industry rather than the fashion industry. They had cameos by legit musicians and composers. The pieces they chose for the soundtrack were brilliant. The jokes were great. It was a joy tbh.
spicy/sweet/savoury? I'd rather have spicy or sweet over savoury given the option, but savoury can be nice too. Generally I like some combination of these though, like my fav pizza toppings is chillis/pineapple/sweetcorn/peppers/olives, because it creates this really nice salty-spicy-sweet combo that just hits.
currently reading: I'm still on The House of Hades in the Percy Jackson series, I bingeread like this first... nine? books and then stalled halfway through this one, I need to pick it back up but I've just not found the drive for it yet.
last thing i googled: Argos opening times lmao
song stuck in my head: Alien Ceilidh - Alasdair Fraser & Natalie Haas

28 / 33 / 44 / 48 / 49 / 50
28 . which is your comfort episode ? maybe not your favorite episode , but an episode you watch to feel happy ? 
Unironically the movie... The amount of times I've had a craving for MASH but couldn't decide on an episode so I threw on the movie is a lot XD There is something about knowing exactly what I'm going to get for 2 hours that's appealing... In terms of the show itself I have a weird soft spot for "Showtime" and find the vibes cozy and I've rewatched it more than most episodes for that reason.
33 . is there something your favorite(s) did that you didn’t feel like made sense for their character ? 
Hawkeye's infamous command spiral... Still makes me >:x
Klinger getting hit by the idiot ball for laughs... Why did they make him re-enlist... Hate that for him...
44 . which 4077th party do you think was the most memorable ? 
Honestly the red party is the most iconic. The Greek party is my personal fave...
48 . what episode are you showing to your friend as a first impression to get them into mash ( pilot barred ) 
I HAVE A THREE STEP PLAN FOR THIS
1. Divided We Stand to introduce the characters and premise
2. 5 O'Clock Charlie for laughs
3. OR for more serious vibes
I have other episodes I would recommend, but I legit have a plan for when my friends agree to a movie night and I can show them a one hour sampler of why I love this show....
49 . is there a duo that you wish the show had done a bit more with ? 
I thought too hard about this for a second but then I remembered TrapOllie is right there... 
50 . what’s an episode that everyone seems to love but you don’t really like ? alternatively , which episode do you think needs all the love ?
I think Dreams is a fascinating experimental work of television and interesting insight into the characters. I ALSO never have a desire to watch it... Literal anxiety dream of an episode... Also don't really care for The Party...

okay i’ve loved s&c since i started reading it but my god…chapter 8 was seriously one of the best things i’ve read and has made me just insanely connected to this story. so pls excuse me if this ask is obnoxiously long i’ve got a lot to say 😭🤚🏼
first off lol i just need to get this off my chest but the SMUT IN THIS CHAPTER…IMMACULATE. I GOT TINGLES im so immune to smut since i’ve read sm of it but oh my godd when he said “fuck i cant hold back any longer. let me fuck you already or i’ll cum in my pants” I HAD BUTTERFLIES IN TWO DIFF PLACES FROM THAT🧍🏻‍♀️…also i like how realistic the sex feels,, like it genuinely reads like two adults in this sort of complicated relationship still desiring one another, mature & sexy yet classy at the same time? bravo seriously (also reader getting the lingerie hehehehrhrh)
the way you built the tension throughout the entire chapter regarding satoru’s super mysterious phone calls and his reluctance to share anything w reader. so wonderfully laced into all of the scenes, there was this sense of dread throughout that simmered even during the fluffy scenes and oof it was a wonderful but torturous feeling haha
speaking of fluff- when he keeps mentioning “love” and now marriage!! pls 😭 it came out of nowhere but i feel like his brazenness to say it so soon makes me believe that he really means it if that makes sense?? :”) one of my fave lines from the chapter was
“he was stating it as a fact, something that was a done deal…he’s simply been waiting for you to catch up.”
that has to be one of the most romantic things i’ve EVER read in my life. a chill legit ran through me haha like if that isn’t love!! 🥲 he knew since the beginning </3
thank you for clarifying the thought process behind reader’s doubts in herself. when she said something about how she wonders if she’s cut out for it…oof i felt that. imposter syndrome is SO damn real, especially in medicine, and my fave moment in the whole chapter is when satoru really steps up in that moment as a mentor and says “taking a break isn’t giving up” <3 i totally understand her push back though, it’s hard to shake insecurities built over years
and my god. satoru’s character. i know that he is so troubled and has made mistakes but my heart legitimately ached for him during that conversation with geto. this was the moment where i was like omg this story is something so special bc you tackle the sensitivity of topics such as drug abuse so fucking well.
i used to work at an emergency department and so often we would get patients rolling in w chief complaints of withdrawal, a LOT of the time young patients in their twenties, and it’s really heartbreaking to see because you can never ever fully understand the pain behind someone’s story or change the past, all you can do is try to help them and make them feel better in the present.
i feel so bad for satoru, seriously fuck sukuna for taking advantage of him like that omg give me two mins in a room w that mf and your story is gonna be missing one of its characters 😅
“walls up before anyone gets close, pushing people away because he’s convinced that deep down, he’s broken.”
siggghhh as someone with an avoidant attachment style i so relate to him. i really hope reader can show him the brighter things in life (i mean she’s definitely someone that makes him want to be a better man which is lovely), i look forward to seeing how he opens up more emotionally in the chapters to come.
im so sorry this is getting so fkn long but i simply cannot pass speaking up ab geto?? what an insanely emotionally intelligent character. the way he acts is so consistent, i looove how he’s recognized that maybe satoru’s relationship w reader, despite the forbidden aspects, is something more than just lust and is something deeper than that :”)
“there is no point, neither in life nor death. but you can either cry about the whole meaningless of the world or try to find meaning to it. to do something that gives meaning to life.”
talk about words that no longer feel like part of a story, but literally jump out of the page (err my phone screen? lol) and have you feel them in the reality of your own life. stunning, your writing is just amazing miss lostfractures
also curious if he got sued cuz he punched that student lol 🤔 or maybe it’s related to malpractice
ugh i’m so sorry this was so fucking long but it’s midnight for me rn and i just had so many thoughts while reading the chap i had to share 😭🤞🏼 thank you sm for this story, it goes without saying that i’m SO excited for more 💕💕💕
Tumblr media
okay i have no idea where to start but first THANK YOU SO SO MUCH! i feel insanely grateful for you to take the time to write this message, really!!
i'm smiling and giggling like an idiot rn at work omg.
so so glad you like the SMUT, this is always the worst part to write, so i'm relieved it didn't read cringey and made you feel something (i laughed at your comment about the butterflies in TWO SPOTS omg).
can relate. ngl.
and yes the whole marriage part did came out of nowhere but i guess that's just so him, like he's so clumsy with feelings and don't know what to do with them so he's just really messy but also so adorable with it, idk!!! ahhhh
your reactions to the chapter make me SO SO happy, like really, that's all us writers want to achieve, right? to make the reader feel something. so glad i could stir something within you!! <333
& yes you never know what a person might have experienced in his past to it really comes down to being patient and understanding with people, but yeah satoru surely has an avoidant attachment, like SO SO BAD. and that can be so FRUSTRATING.
his past even gets worse in the next chapter, because apparently i can not NOT make him even more miserable.
haha the whole philosophical part at the end was mostly because i read a lot of camus and kafka lately lol. couldn't hold myself back, but i guess that mirrors satoru's existential crisis he goes through, that will be more highlighted in the next chapter.
but like at the same time, he needs someone to put him in his place and the reader is gladly accepting that and is like, I'M SO DONE WITH YOU, GET YOUR SHIT TOGETHER MAN.
thank you so so much from the bottom of my heart for spending your precious time to read and write this message!! i really don't know how to phrase it how happy this makes me, just imagine myself smiling and crying like an idiot <33

I AM LATE TO THE GAME BUT I JUST FINISHED READING MADELINE MILLER’S CIRCE 🥲
Tumblr media
I’m definitely feeling all the feelings, as it was a long and dragged out journey (even though I was thoroughly hooked before I read the first words) because of work and yenno - my mental health lol.
It was so so soooooo beautifully written. The imagery and details were literally AMA-ZA-ZING 🤩✨
A physical embodiment of a female experience/journey of womanhood; and how figuring out and finding oneself can feel like an eternity. It also perfectly captured the melancholic, yet beautiful fear and joy that comes with living, and how worth it it is to go through all of it.
Tumblr media
Circe is probably the MOST likable character of all time 🥲😭😭❤️❤️🥺
Her bravery in the face of danger
Her curiosity and wonder
Her appreciative spirit for simplicity
Her humility
Her steadfastness and patience
Her playful spirit
Demur yet confident
+ TELEMACHUS is the BIGGEST WALKING GREEN FLAG OUT THERE OMG 💚
So if you are reading this and you haven’t read Circe by Madeline Miller yet, please do yourself a favor and go read it!!!
And if you have read it before — read it again hehehehehehhe
Some of my fave quotes:
“I was too wild to feel shame. It was true. I would not just uproot the world, but tear it, burn it, do any evil I could …”
“But make him shiver…then you will hear from him”
“Whatever you do, I wanted to say, do not be too happy. It will bring down fire on your head. I said nothing, and let her dance.”
“My whole life I had waited for tragedy to find me. I never doubted that it would”
“Despite your wet-mouse weeping, I saw how you would not be ground into the earth.”
. “Timidity creates nothing” — this one definitely struck a nerve lol
“But in a solitary life, there are rare moments when another soul dips near yours, as stars once a year brush the earth. Such a constellation was he to me.”
“You have been tame your whole life, and now you will be sorry. Yes father, yes father — see what it gets you”
“As it turned out, I did kill pigs that night after all”
“Tear down, I thought. Tear down and build again”
“Death’s Brother is the name poets give to sleep” ****
“He showed me his scars, and in return he let me pretend that I had none”
“I cannot guard against shadows. Give me something to face and fight”
“You do not know what I can do”
“Then child, make another.”
“Such is the folly of humanity. Is it not our human tragedy that some men must be beaten like donkeys before they will see reason?”
“I lifted my hands in blessing and gave my son to the world” — I LEGIT CRIED READING THIS😭😭 made me think of my mom
“It is a common saying that women are delicate creatures, flowers, eggs, anything that me be crushed in a moment’s carelessness. If I had believed it, I no longer did” —WOOHOO GIRL POWER 😈
“‘You are wise,’ he said. ‘If it is so,’ I said, ‘it is only because I have been fool enough for a hundred lifetimes’”
“‘I must tell you, all my past is like today, monsters and horrid no one wants to hear.’ … ‘I want to hear’ he said.” - bitch I SWOONED
“The next sentence should be: let us go together” — :3 I cannot
“ ‘I have not pressed you,’ he said, ‘ and I still will not. I know there are reasons you cannot answer me. But if–’ He stopped. ‘I want you to know, if you go to Egypt, if you go anywhere, I want to go with you.’” - AHHHHHHHHHHHHH WTF 😳🤯😱😶‍🌫️🥵🥴😮‍💨
“He had never met a god who enjoyed their divinity less.”
“‘Then we will go back. We will go back until you are satisfied.’ It was so simple. If you want it, I will do it. If it would make you happy, I will go with you.” —😭😭😭🥰. Crying, screaming, puking
“We would take pleasure in the simple mending of the world”
“This time you are not alone” - I cried ngl
“Circe, he says, it will be alright… He does not mean that it does not hurt. He does not mean that we are frightened. Only that: we are here. This is what it means to swim in the tide, to walk the earth and feel it touch your feet. This is what it means to be alive.” - 😢😭😭😭
“But I see now [gods] are more dead than anything, for they are unchanging, and can hold nothing in their hands”

ONE SENTENCE REVIEW FOR EVERY GUNDAM PROPERTY I HAVE EXPERIENCED
Like i said in a previous post, it’s basically everything that you can watch on a screen from 0079 up to IBO. A few manga here and there and one light novel.
NOTE: Don’t take this too seriously, most of these are meme answers. Most of my strong negativity is said in jest. (My positivity is genuine tho)
Starting with UC:
•0079
Absolute classic but i prefer The Origin manga
•Zeta
Well done dark tone but kinda boring at times
•ZZ
Fuck you, the goofball stuff was great and a welcome change of pace
•08th MS Team
Probably the best down-to-earth mecha war story ever
•0080: War in the Pocket
*weeps profusely*
•Sentinel
Really compelling with a great cast, plus the idea of “other ways to emulate being a newtype” is still kinda unexplored both at the time this was written and to this day
•0083: Stardust Memory
Pretty damn good all things considered
•IgLoo
Zudah was a cool idea, too bad the tallgeese did it first and everything else about the show is boring af
•IgLoo Apocalypse
The best of the IgLoo trilogy but still around a 6.5/10
•IgLoo 2
Shinigami are canon to the universal century, 0/10
•Thunderbolt
Amazing in almost every way, plus the most effective usage of a sociopathic fed vs a well meaning zeon
•Twilight Axis
Meh
•Char’s Counterattack
The Resurrection F of UC
•Unicorn
Best anime i’ve ever watched
•Narrative
I just like that Unicorn got a direct sequel goddamn it
•F91
I so badly wish this was a series and not a movie
•Crossbone
Completely validates my opinion on F91
•Victory
Phenomenal use of character death, and I remember nothing else
•Reconguista in G
My favorite anime that i cannot recommend to anyone else on earth
Now for pre-2000’s au timelines:
•G Fighter
You cannot get more funny-bad in the entire Gundam franchise, it’s awesome
•Wing
I didn’t get the hype, but i still had a great time at points
•Endless Waltz
Much better mecha, slightly cooler plot
•X
I’m so sad this was rushed bc it’s by far my fave 90’s Gundam
Post 2000’s au timelines:
•SEED
Very cool pseudo-shounen remake of 0079
•SEED Destiny
Something good almost could have happened here, but no
•SEED Astray/R
Love all these goobers, really good
•Astray X
Worst official localization for any manga i’ve ever read, but there was still some cool stuff
•SEED Stargazer
*weeps profusely, but in the Cosmic Era this time*
•00
Behind the fujoshi bait is one of the smartest and well done mecha stories this side of Code Geass
•00 Awakening of the Trailblazer
… why aliens?
•AGE
I know that it’s my fault but I couldn’t even bring myself to get past the first generation
•Iron Blooded Orphans
I have never cried this many times or this hard over anime characters dying
•Build Fighters
Legit a 5Ds tier Toy Battle anime
•Build Fighters Try
A bit generic but still palatable
•Build Divers
Didn’t go far enough
•Build Divers: Re;Rise
Went way too far in the best way possible
And if it wasn’t clear already, Unicorn is by far my favorite Gundam and favorite anime overall, while IgLoo 2 is both my least favorite Gundam and my least favorite anime i’ve ever seen.

So I rewatched one of my fave cartoons ever recently
eene is so far in the rearview mirror for me now that I forget a lot of what it was initially like when the show was airing on tv. Like I couldn’t remember why some people thought s4 was a step down from s3 (even though I agree s3 is my fave). But I read someone’s review of a twist of ed that jogged my memory. Basically the reviewer was disappointed that they missed the opportunity to change the status quo at the end. And it hit me that there are s4 eps that are waaay more enjoyable knowing that we get s5 and the movie later. They aren’t BAD they’d just be kind of a bummer if s4 really was the end. I really disliked take this ed and shove it because it felt like such a grim note to end on. So while I do like s4 this realization made me remember why it left some people sour. That being said I wish s4 got way more credit for its silly goofy eps! It definitely wasn’t all bitter.
-
Here’s a possibly hot take: if anything s5 PROVES their friendship is still strong. Like Edd has every reason to be busy with school things and still chooses to be attached to the hip with slackers like Ed and Eddy? It feels unfair to me that this season gets blamed for being this dysfunctional era of the show. There are iffy moments here and there sure, but there are way more positives imo. I’m a s5 defender. It does commit a few crimes (a couple eps feel boring and they do more gross jokes?) but it’s pretty great. My least fave season is s1 (it’s just a little undercooked sorry).
-
I kind of wish the line in Edd’s character bible re: always being ready for action was more popular with fans. He’s a stick in the mud in a funny way not in a stops the plot in its tracks way! He’s open to silly stuff even in the later seasons! He just has to complain and be annoying (affectionate) first. I remember some of those more hypocritical writing moments confusing me as a kid (like do you want to be here?? lol) but in hindsight it just doesn’t feel that serious anymore. Edd is there because those are his friends, he likes doing the scams, there’s no ‘guilty by association’ and he wouldn’t be better off with the other kids since people love to forget he’s an outcast too.
I wish I could remember more of what it was like pre-movie. It’s so easy to handwave away some interpretations now that there’s a legit conclusion.
-
It feels like the abusive households theory is more prevalent than the (lame tbh) purgatory theory these days. The only thing I disagree with is that I don’t think any of the Eds’ parents are like. hellspawn or anything. I think there is neglect in both Ed and Edd’s households but they don’t hate their kids they’re just imperfect. Less malicious intent and more… they could do a lot better lol. I think Eddy’s parents are pretty good (comparatively?).
Admittedly though Ed’s home life is super hard to pin down bc the iconic WHAT HAPPENED TO THE STAIRS moment is taken so seriously. But Kevin’s parents put chains around the tv and cookie jar when he gets grounded so like!! what is real and what is cartoony exaggeration in this universe!!
On that note I actually think Ed’s bedroom being in the basement is… really cool? It would be concerning if there’s a lot of mold down there, but I always thought a teen (pre-teen in this case) boy would love having a cool spacious lair for a bedroom. He has his own tv even! I’m willing to bet the boys spend the most time in Ed’s bedroom than anyone else’s (which is so weird considering Eddy’s is on ground level AND has its own door. like hello that should be the hangout spot).
I could talk more but this has been in my drafts long enough. Sometimes a 20yo Canadian cartoon can be so personal.

Which Off role do you think I should watch I have only ever seen his BL work plus his work in Midnight Motel which I loved but I do want to expand my viewing experience of him is there a must watch role of his that you think I should check out? I don't really mind on the genre
so I have made many posts on this, here's me ranking every off role, and here's me recommending my fave offgun straight roles, but I'll make a summary for you :)
GIRL NEXT ROOM: RICHY RICH

light & fun but with great commentary on growing out of generational poverty. krathing & duchess are absolutely one of off's best ships ever with their chemistry & banter, and krathing in general utilizes perfectly off's ability of making the greatest facial expressions ever & being a cutie <3
FABULOUS 30

sadly that show was deleted off of youtube bc gmmtv sucks but it's on dramacool :( the first show to contain both off & mond, but with all due respect off absolutely carried the show. not only is zen an absolute BICON, but his ship with yui was so beautiful & touched on insecurity and intimacy in a very beautiful way imo. definitely one of off's best roles!
I'M TEE ME TOO
Tumblr media
I mean, a show with offguntay?? how could it not be adorable! no shade but off definitely carried the show too, maetee is a cross-dressing icon with mommy issues who really shined & stole my heart. that role also puts off's screaming skills to the test LMAO
WOLF
Tumblr media
off jumpol going abroad & flirting with all the women?? yup, it happened! this is basically khai from tol if he stayed an asshole lol. this is the first straight role from off I ever watched & I love por so much bc his facial expressions, especially with glasses, are literally the cutest ever! moreover, even though the show wasn't executed the best, the concept is very daring & interesting for the time and it didn't deserve to flop like it did at all. I honestly would recommend it :)
10 YEARS TICKET
Tumblr media
so I'm gonna be honest, the more time passes since 10yt the more I realize it wasn't that incredible of a show, even though it's definitely a good show still. and off in it was amazing even though he was pretty withdrawn, but both of his storylines, one involving the mafia & the other involving his grandma with dementia which is a topic that touched me particularly, were amazing, and off did such a good job.
46 DAYS
Tumblr media
I legit think 46 days is the funnest romcom ever produced in thailand. it's such a fun, over the top show, with still very great moments. I loved the female friendship in it, I loved that the "perfect" male lead is shown to be more than that, and I absolutely loved the side ship with off & mild (again). pat is probably the most tame & mentally stable off character lol, but he's still very fun & a cutie to watch, especially with mild who's character noina is not too dissimilar from duchess in girl next room. the offmild pairing is just always a pleasure to watch & this whole show is just very fun & lovely :)
