Ep 15 & 16 were not as revealing as I’d hoped they’d be, especially in relation to Zhou luo’s college scandal. I feel like there’s definitely more to that story than they’ve shown us. The one thing I definitely took away from these two episodes is that, Zhou luo definitely isn’t someone naive enough to be manipulated. Is he impulsive? Yes. But the boy is smart. I know he wasn’t the top scorer of his class for no reason. Also, this scene was very revealing, dare I say, foreshadow-ey
Totally unrelated but I really loved how aggressive and haunting these shots were. Literally had me holding my breath. The characters are saying so much with their faces but hiding so much in their words.

FINISHED THE HOTGUY ZINE AND AAAAAAAAH /POS
okay im going to put my thoughts under the cut cause OUGH this is going to be a long post LMAO
FIRST OFF can i just say how amazing and incredible the folk who organized the whole event are, they deserve absolute kudos
AND ANOTHER FIRST OFF: SHOUTOUT TO ALL THE LOVELY WRITERS, ARTISTS, EDITORS, ETC. WHO CONTRIBUTED YALL ARE INCREDIBLE
okay okay finally into the recap that was an amazing 3 and a half hours of my life
Pages 1-103:
When I first saw the heads up about how the zine was interconnected and skipping any part would potentially lead to some plot i was immediately intrigued then i was immediately hit with the other realization of "410 PAGES???? HELLO????"
the first comic was so fucking cute OMG LIZZIE'S DESIGN WAS SO CUTE AND THE SILLY SLIDESHOW HUMOR BETWEEN JOEL, SCAR, AND LIZZIE
"hold on let me make some edits-"
"no let ME make some edits-"
the artstyle changing based on who was editing what, Joel just trying to support his wife, Scar purposely mishearing "cats" as "cash" absolute hilarity how i heart them all so
____________
AND THEN WE GET HIT WITH THE DOODY ART OOOOH MY DAYS CUTEGUY AND HOTGUY MEETING FOR THE FIRST TIME AAAAAAH
Grian rocking the cloak, Scar just absolutely confuzzled: THEYRE SOOOO *shakes them*
_____________
and the shenanigans between Ren, Scar, and BDubs oh my god AND THE ON GOING BIT ABOUT HOW "if anyone says hotguy it immediately turns into the logo" it never fails to make me laugh
the early days of the mutation, the proposal of the union, PEARL'S LITTLE >:3c as she pressed publish OUGH
and the trail of petals grian left behind as he considered hotguy's proposal just *splat* i literally ate up all the art and the fics and the silly silly edits in this zine THEY WORLD BUILDING IS AMAZING
____________
speaking of world building: MUMBLR??? HELLOOOOOOO
THE ANON'S HAVING SILLY MUSTACHES BY DEFAULT
THE RANTING IN THE TAGS
THE MEMES
now i need to know, what does old mumblr *checks notes* teal? green? look like
____________
(at this point it was around 8 PM but after a long day i was already reaching the point of eepyness and i thought "surely i can finish reading the hOTGuY zine in one sitting!" spoiler alert: i did not)
____________
immediately when i saw the G Team comic i was reminded of the council of Grians LMAO Grian being the absolute chaotic one man band as he tries to collect all this evidence, the readers seeing Scar's means of transportation for the first time, and then *vine boom* SCULK
also ARIANA GRIANDE THE BELOVED HOW I HEART HER SOOOOOOOO i love all of the grians featured here, and the fact that permit office grian managed to make a silly appearance AND his permit shenanigans working in his favor- hE EVEN HAS THE "please hold." MUSIC- iconic i tell you, iconic
____________
I absolutely exploded into a million pieces seeing tibby's art then exploded again because "i can't see the end of the horizon...CUBFAN135- IS THAT YOU??!!?"
seeing the sculk snail follow behind scar idly, the fact that grian's only lead is cub ordering pizza like of all leads. but to be fair it does fit both of them LMAO
i am eating the sculk texturing btw it's very very tasty uwu
it's the fact that both of them turned to each other to yell "ARSON" like of course theyre at the ready to light things on fire
BUT THEN THIS PANEL
cub just over scar's shoulder like a sack of potatoes, the match already out of grian's hand, the sculk snail also there to witness the chaos that is about to ensue *chefs kiss* poetic cinema
also i would buy this shirt
____________
oh my gods the emails, the emails were so fucking funny i- KJSDFHDSJK
BDubs immediately trying to screen Cub out and Cub just continuing his shenanigans unperturbed, grian at his wits end trying to contact scar but of course scar is busy and cub just assumes it's some impersonation account until further notice, TGC trying to contact them but once again Mr. Fan135 Does Not Give A Fuck and he lives to cause mild annoyances and chaos, what a guy LMAO
their littol email icons are so cute, when i saw pearl's i was like "WAH PUPPERRRR"
i havent seen many email-format type beat story telling before so this was an absolute joy to explore the story through pearl's detailed emails, grian's panicked typing (how was mans typing and sending so quickly with 365+ lazer eyed chickens chasing him like a mad man + a green gob- i mean goatman), and both bdubs' and cub's concern and nonchalance. not to mention bdubs just nodding along and going "well cub you have proven yourself...and uh- added a totally not a virus to scar's phone- BUT you have proven yourself...." absolute sillies, absolutely iconic
____________
THE TWITTER BEEF HAD ME CACKLING OH MY GOD THE QUOTE RETWEETS i would pay good money to see that in real time oh my god
mumblr user hermitopia-explained you will always be famous
okay i'll admit it i was distracted by the scitties- BUT the social media handles and names being remade into hermit puns and the fact he's chilling on mending beach I CAN'T
AND OUR ETERNAL QUEEN JELLIE i literally let out a small squeal looking at her she is sO *gently holds her*
birthday gorl getting absolutely spoiled, as she deserves
____________
scar finding a cloak just to do the sailor moon meme: iconic, showstopping, one of a kind, amazing, talented- i love these two idiots
____________
and as a heads up i'm going to try and separate these into about 100 pages each! so expect the next reblog soon

Comments on House of the Dragon S02E07
- I LOVED how Rhaenyra eyes during the first scene with Addam , somehow looked purple sometimes.Also, my queen, you just met the most hornoble and loyal of the dragon seeds
- Rhaenyra wanting to raise an army of bastards just to spit in the face of those who called her sons bastards...*poetic cinema*
- That boy, Oscar Tully, means business
-I hate that they made Lady Arryn so mean.
-Love the memes about Alicent learning that Rhaenyra make out with Mysaria and decided to drown herself 😭 im sorry but they were so funny. But I get it, she is feeling like shit, worthless and disposable
-Jace is not wrong in this worry cuz we all know how the dragon seeds plot ended in the book. And that scene was amazing. His worries don't come outta nowhere.
-So Hugh is probably gonna lose his wife in Tumbleton and because of that he will go rogue with anger and grief, kinda like Dany, burn everything and maybe Ulf and Addam will try to stop him idk. His storyline is the one that makes me more curious to see how it will play out, it's already very different from the book, is like he is a entirely different character
-Rhaenyra speaking valyrian is so good, damn. I've missed that. And she goes alone to speak with the dragons because the dragon babysitters only wanted pure blood people to tame dragons ? Like wtf dude, they said it was disrespectful to the dragons but like, those are smart beasts
The Vermithor scene was amazing and terrifying at the same time. Hugh claiming him was the best "claiming dragon" scene. He spoke a language that Vermithor could understand: Bravery.
-Watching Aemond running away was gold
