listen there really was just something about how in the book, snow’s 3-page descent from hesitant lover boy to deluded psychopath happens entirely in his mind. lucy gray gives him no indication whatsoever that she suspects him, that she’s going to leave or betray him. he’s just sitting quietly in the cabin waiting for her to return when that seed of calculated suspicion, which he has needed to survive the capitol, takes a hold of him and chokes the life out of any goodness left inside him. it really drives home your terror as a reader that “oh my god did he kill her? did she escape? what happened to her? why would he even think that?” in a way that when the movie had to adjust for visualization it lost some of that holy shit this guy has lost it emphasis.

#seeing some discourse and im not saying lucy grey didnt know #im saying she never dropped the kind of hints that she knew like she did in the movie #or if she did snow isnt worried about them until he very suddenly is consumed by them #snow is not concerned about whether or not she believed him. of course she did! hes snow!#but then shes gone…. for a while……#and its the sudden immediate drastic unravelling that comes across so clearly in the book #that i knew wouldn’t translate to screen yet still cant help but miss #the hunger games #coriolanus snow #tbosas #lucy gray baird #not a crime or anything just a note that i cannot stop thinking about #the ballad of songbirds and snakes #this is all from memory of reading it quite a while ago. so maybe 3 pages is an exaggeration #but i remember it happening VERY quickly and without much external cause #like we as the reader have no indication as to whether shes nearby or not.#snow has no idea either. he just SUSPECTS. and his suspicion breeds the hatred that has been bubbling inside him all this time #he hates how she undoes him. he hates that he WOULD run away with her if shed let him keep his secrets #and he HATES more than anything that she makes him WANT to tell his secrets #he wants to be vulnerable and reveal the ugly nasty parts about himself and still be loved #but he does not let himself and it is everyone’s downfall #he chooses cruelty bc it is easy and familiar and makes him feel more powerful than the vulnerable give and take that real love requires

realising what I actually need from Suzanne Collins is just a multi-volume panem history book

#which INCLUDES pre-dark days/origins of panem #because i know she has it written somewhere #i want to know everything about panem #and how it came to be #lotr appendices/silmarillion but make it panem #the hunger games #thg #the ballad of songbirds and snakes #tbosas #that and a character study of haymitch #because whilst katniss's major character development happended during her games #i think haymitch's happened afterwards with what happened to his family/girlfriend and mentoring

still thinking of this melanistic garter i saw (confirmed by others who know much more about snakes than me) (not an eastern racer (in behavior or body)) (keeled scales) (in an area where garters are abundant and overwinter, basking around other garters) (me and a field herp had to argue with some photographer for 20 minutes) the inside of her mouth was even a very dark red!

#my pics #snake #herps #herpetology #:) ilike her #not giving out location publicly as shes already been documented! and because she has abberant coloring i dont want to put her #or her colony in any danger

"I'm a little bemused as to why Crowley should risk destruction for you..."

As angelic methods of communication go, the bitchy raise of eyebrows is quite versatile. For example, Aziraphale's meant:

"Where the hell have you been? He's pined for me since Eden, and here's you sitting in our car --somehow unaware types were invented the moment he laid eyes on me --he burns his feet on church floors for me-- talking shit."

#good omens #ineffable husbands #aziracrow #aziraphale #crowley #good omens 2 #the way Aziraphale KNOWS he has that snake wrapped around his finger #he's so powerful #good omens meta #for lack of a better tag #no but I really love how she tries this jab in particular #and he's just like. wow. that was embarrassing for you.

Something walks the house, and Peggy Hodgson has failed to kill it.

#This would be early on in the AU (not that it has a plot) where Peggy doesn't know #that the kids actually struck a proper deal with the demon somehow #and she thinks it's messing with them #Surprisingly this doesn't have lasting consequences but it does make things tense for a while #house demon au #valak #peggy hodgson #the conjuring 2 #comic #valak conjuring #the conjuring universe #horror movies #long post #snake's art

angey hear me out when i say bianca is orange cat, angell is black cat, and du ruo is white cat…

…I can see it.

#⛓️ interrogation complete #funnily enough actually #I believe bianca is more snake coded than cat coded #she has a lot of snake symbolism and accesories on her design #but before that I too thought that bianca was cat coded #ptn #path to nowhere

Poptart the palmetto corn snake (Pantherophis guttatus)

#palmetto #corn snake #pantherophis guttatus #reptile #snake #colubrid #color mutation #selective breeding #technically this is not selectively bred in terms of people making the color by combining genes #a wild snake was found like this #this is my snake I just wanted to share tbh #my beautiful baby worm #also I think this technically piebald just really extreme and weird #so I’ll tag #piebald #just in case #she is over a year old and still has a lot of growing to do #poptart

The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes, Suzanne Collins / Antigone, Sofocles

How do you mourn a brother you wanted dead?

#does this makes sense?#I hope it does #i was rereading the Antigone and for some reasons this quote made me think of Tigris #of her feelings after snow died #the Snow she despised and wanted dead #the same Snow that was Coryo once #does she mourn that boy or has she been doing that since she first saw his father in Snow’s eyes?#does she finally feel relieved because the monster is dead?#i just love her so much #her story breaks my heart #my girl Tigris you deserved so much better #tigris snow #coriolanus snow #hunger games #the ballad of songbirds and snakes
