I haven't thought much about Jonathan Sims for long enough that I kinda feel like I've started thinking about him a little more divorced of the emotional attachment I might have had once. Because I just saw a post lamenting his slow descent into inhumanity and losing his identity, becoming the archivist rather than Jonathan Sims, losing his friends, his house, everything he loves.

But is that true? That put upon head archivist persona he had in the beginning, was that really him? The way I see it, real life has already leached him of any identity he might have had, he didn't really have friends, Tim and Sasha clearly weren't, as we saw in their season 5 recording. He chose to make them his subordinates over beib friends, pushed away Georgie, he became so desperate for approval that he agreed to take a job he clearly has no idea how to do, let his stress over it isolate him from everyone around him, had a desperate need to assert himself in the beginning of every recording as 'head archivist of the Magnus institute london'. Forget about even having a home, he often slept in his office for heaven's sake.

The way I see it, this story is about him finding himself, finding the perfect place for himself in this already doomed world that was already strangling him and everyone around him. He became the Archivist, no longer needing to connect himself to some godforsaken capitalistic institute to identify himself. found his role, he enjoyed its power, even admitted to it. He found love. He found purpose in trying to save the world. In the end he was surrounded with the friends he made along the way (as friendly as they could be under the circumstances). He was finally allowed to make real choices, have true responsibility over himself and not be some tired corporate worker, part of a tired pointless system. Sure his choices weren't that great, and getting there was through outside manipulation and his own ignorance and he had to suffer immensely and pay an awful price of what we like to call his "humanity" but he Became and found what we all look for - his calling.

"It's still me" he says in the last episode. Because he is. He lost nothing and gained everything. Even dying in his lover's arms.

Forget about being human. In the end Jon achieves apotheosis and truly becomes Jonathan Sims

At rest, your lungs wish to deflate, and your ribcage expands outwards.

okay but you can see the moment percy's heart shatters into pieces once he learns that grover was also annabeth's protector. because this child grew up watching as his peers chose schoolyard taunts over compassion. watching as his dad chose freedom over fatherhood. watching as his mother chose to protect his life by sacrificing her own. but when his mom dies, he holds onto the notion that at least he's not alone. at least he has grover. but that worldveiw wastes away when he learns that he is, first and foremost, grover's assignment. that he was no one's first choice at all.

I am simply not seeing enough people talk about the significance of Isaac’s purple and green leaves!

In the show’s past, animations such as the leaves and butterflies are used as a tool specifically to convey a character’s crush or romantic excitement. BUT NOW Isaac gets leaves too because he is experiencing a different spark of excitement around figuring out and finding comfort in who he is.

You don’t need to experience romantic attraction to feel the leaves! ANYBODY CAN GET THE LEAVES 🍃💜💚

Do you remember when c2 ended and a bunch of people got angry at Matt and Liam because they thought they didn’t make shadowgast canon enough. Anyway Caleb and Essek have been dating for 7 years and Caleb calls Essek dear and Essek calls Caleb in the evening to chat and drops german zemnian words in casual conversation and once turned into a fish on one of their Aeor dates and Caleb carried him around and they’re both absolutely smitten

Apex predator, my ass. I’m going to pet the dog 🐻🐻‍❄️🐼

perhaps now is a good time for some responsible bear programming to remind everyone that as cute and cuddly as they may seem, bears are lethal apex predators and should absolutely be treated accordingly if ever encountered.

DO

NOT

PET

If I see anyone, and I mean anyone, talk shit about tubbos rp abilities or spam -rp in his chat after he immediately dropped everything after seeing dapper downed in chat and then spending literal hours lookin for him even when other people weren’t really caring to look I will commit unspeakable acts that you can’t even envision with the human mind

It really is about MK wanting his story to be over and wanting his happily ever after yet having to reconcile that there is more than the end, that "it can't just be a journey to the end, it needs to mean something", and how, despite everything, he has to keep going to experience both the pain and joy of life, to keep his friends safe.

Aaa I'm so sorry to hear that people are attacking her so much. I definitely was trying to be mad at Simon and not you or omega, I think she's perfect as she is and has done no wrong 🤩 everyone back away from her lol

It's not so much attacking as it just is people being ignorant of her and her character and how her past has affected her and her mental health. As someone who had their mental health ignored their whole life and had things blamed on personality faults rather than actual health issues, it's just infuriating when people say things like she's stupid or useless or unrealistic.

I got this comment on Ao3 a couple weeks ago (which I deleted) and it's just...you missed the whole point.

'Mega isn't a normal brain functioning human. She has trauma above all else which does literal damage to the brain as well as some anxiety and some depression as well. (It always makes me laugh that people will spew some stupid, ignorant shit and then try to compliment me like that's going to make it better?? Be so fucking for real 😂)

Okay rant over but still. It just sucks that people are so ignorant to mental health disorders. Sorry it's not the quirky or cute fake mental health issues that media portrays. 🤷‍♀️

The only way I’m feeling better about this:

This means — at least to me, until proven otherwise— that Bryan handpicked his BCC boys to give him his (“full time”) wrestling career send off.

That he hand picked Mox & Claudio to be his foils and “bad guys” — to “put him to rest”.

That he hand picked Yuta to be his avenger (more than likely, again, I’m thinking this until proven otherwise) and to carry on not just the BCCs legacy and teachings but carry HIS legacy and teachings too.

In the end, no matter how heartbreaking the “betrayal” was and now matter how sad I am…in the most warped and twisted way this “ending” to the BCC is an absolute homage to its moniker:

“Iron sharpens Iron.”

I am really confused about this game. Is it like "Doki doki literature club" ? the game seems to break the fourth wall after getting bad endings and someone speaks in red text. Is it Ren and is he stuck in the game like Monica?Or is he and Redacted separate people, with him being a game character,but Redacted being some sort of entity who's stuck in the void of the game,or in it's code,and acknowledges that it's a game and someone's playing it and they speak to the player, not the game's protag?

✦゜ANSWERED: 14 Days With You is like 14 Days With You. It's not meant to be similar to DDLC in any way, and Ren isn't supposed to be like Monika or any other self-aware character.

Please don't associate 14DWY with other games just because they share similar tropes. /lh

But!! To answer your question: Ren isn't aware that Angel and the player are separate people. As of right now, he considers Angel and you as the same entity, and speaks to you as though you're part of his universe.

Ren is aware that his entire existence only comes into fruition whenever you play the game — but to him, that's considered normal — the same way getting wifi from trees and not discovering 80% of the ocean is considered normal for us. Nothing is out of place for him, and the way he interacts with his environment doesn't seem weird or out of place for him.

The Dead Ends are the only time Ren breaks the fourth wall, but it's still a massive WIP and there's not enough content for it to make much sense yet. But once more Days get released, this will be further explained!!

why do people think Yevgeny wasn't Mickey's son? in 3x06 there was clearly no condom used (not that Terry probably would have let Svetlana stop to get one), but there's no reason to think she wasn't using condoms with her regular clients. it's not Svetlana's fault that she was a tool used to rape Mickey—the sole blame for everything that happens in that entire situation belongs to Terry Milkovich and him alone—so why does it feel like it's just another way for people to shit on Svetlana for something that wasn't in her control? it's not as though she'd asked to get pregnant in the first place...

I'm so grateful For the love that we share I'll never take it for granted That you're always there And when I think about the world And what is going on It makes me even more thankful That you're still around And I've been waiting all my life For someone I could stand And you're the only one so far Who could understand And what I'm feelin' in my heart Feelin' in my soul I couldn't ever hope to tell you I'm sure you must know
