[herejusttosufferalong]

ust when I start to feel like I have a grip on what happened with the part 2 premiere and papgate, I learn or remember something that completely throws me. I feel like I need to lay out some evidence for my own mental clarity. 

I had a bad feeling something was brewing the night of the London premiere before the BackGrid pictures came out based on L’s energy on the red carpet. Here is evidence that SOMETHING was up.

https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZPRoTmvL4/ People have focused on how cute this is of N and LT, but it’s telling that LT and Claudia form a little huddle of love around her and Hannah joins in. People were feeling very protective of N that night. I can almost imagine LT whispering in her ear, “How are you doing?” and Nic saying with a smile plastered on her face, “He brought her.”

https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZPRoT9dYE/ Some interpret this as Golda smirking at the lovebirds, but I have never seen anything other than pure disdain in her expression. She is thinking “You motherfucker” and you can’t convince me otherwise. 

https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZTNbowwQu/ I was reminded of this clip here a few days ago and holy shit. Sam and Joanna are protectively huddled around N, the expression on Sam’s face as he looks directly at L is…not friendly, and I totally see the “stupid arse” thing. That’s not to mention L, who legitimately looks like he’s going to throw up. He is paranoid they are talking about him and, guess what, they are. 

https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZPRoTvvuH/ Let’s not forget this little dig. N is too classy to reveal anything outright, but her response feels so pointed and L’s reaction is so awkward.  

A few more random thoughts about the night:

I can’t find clips right now that illustrate this, but I remember noticing that L was constantly flicking his eyes upwards throughout the red carpet. He was hyperconscious of the fact that A was watching him from up in that glass box AND that N and the cast knew A was up there.

It struck me recently that I hadn’t seen any pictures or videos of C or LT with LN on this red carpet. LN had a hug with HD and there were those documented moments with Simone, but I would find it very telling if we couldn’t find a single pic or video of C interacting with LN that night. Happy to be proved wrong on this one #showittomeRachel.

I know the official story is that N left the afterparty early because she started filming TMFT the next day, but let’s be real. This was the final event for HER season of Bton. This is a project she loves and a cast that she cares deeply about. If she had wanted to shut the party down, she would have. 

So far, all of this awkwardness could be explained simply by A’s presence and nothing at all related to the paparazzi. The thing that is still SO suspicious to me that makes me think L knew the paparazzi would be there when he left the party is that he was the last to leave the party. Think about everything you have ever read/heard about L in social situations. That sort of gathering is absolutely not his scene. He’s talked about how much he loves an Irish Goodbye. I also feel like it’s sort of cringey to be the last one at a party like that, especially if all of the other main actors have left, including your costar. Why would he have waited until literally everyone else had gone if not because he didn’t want anyone else around for the pap pics? I know people really don’t want to believe L was involved because it is shitty to think about, but I think there are too many odd things that stack up for him to have been blindsided by it. 

The thing that haunts me is that he seemed AWKWARD about everything that transpired that night. This was not a man who felt confident and in control of his life decisions. If this was meant to be the hard launch of a girlfriend, a million different things could have happened. He could have told interviewers how excited he was to have his mom, sister, and gf with him for the event. He could have put his arm around A, grabbed her hand, smiled at the camera, kissed A’s cheek, etc. while the cameras were flashing.

So, that leaves me convinced of two things: Luke knew the paparazzi would be there AND he didn’t want to be photographed with A (at least in a way that would confirm a serious relationship). After tossing around different explanations in my mind, here is what I have come up with.

L is a serial monogamist who really struggles to be alone. He kept A around during the WT because it gave him comfort and a feeling of power to know he had a romantic partner. This would have been important to him for various possible reasons: maybe N was attached to someone during this time and he didn’t want to be the single one; maybe N had rejected his advances and he wanted to seem unbothered; maybe neither he nor N had made a move on each other but he was feelings things towards N he didn’t know how to cope with and A was a distraction. Regardless, he kept A in the picture, though their relationship obviously had a LOT of asterisks surrounding it. He invited her to the premiere at a time when he was feeling especially insecure (for any of the reasons I mentioned above). In his mind, it was going to feel good to have her there. And I think at some point right before the premiere, she convinced him they needed to launch the relationship. If it’s true that something had been going on between them since the fall, then it had been at least eight months of her letting him keep her hidden in the shadows while he flirted shamelessly with his gorgeous soulmate–I mean costar–for the world to see. He agreed to this at a time when he wasn’t secure in whatever he and N had and couldn’t find a compelling reason to say no to A’s request. 

But I think he underestimated two things:

1) How shitty it would feel to have A at the premiere as his date after getting so close to N in those last few legs of the tour. I think Ireland especially shifted something and he realized not just how much N meant to him but, very importantly, how much he meant to N.

2) How much N would care about A’s presence. I think N must have played it very cool about A during the tour. Either didn’t really acknowledge her or brought her up in a casual way to show she was unbothered. But I think the sequence of Brazil, Toronto, and especially Ireland hit N hard and she became emotionally invested in (and available to?) L in a way that she hadn’t let herself be before. I’m not sure she said anything to him, but I think they could both feel it. A’s presence at the prem ended up feeling like a slap in the face to N in a way that L did not anticipate. 

I think L initially thought that having A at the premiere would be a confidence boost, but having her there backfired. He didn’t realize how awkward and embarrassed he would feel by A’s presence. When it’s just L and A  or when they’re with R and S, L doesn’t feel as self-conscious about things like A’s age, her SM antics, her unseriousness. But when he, N, and A are all in the same space, the silliness of his relationship with A and the differences between N and A really hits him. Frankly (and I don’t say this to be cruel to A), I think he feels mortified about N witnessing his relationship with A up close and personal. So I think what we’re witnessing at the red carpet and in the pap pics is a man who committed to a plan (inviting A and setting up the pics) at a time when he felt a) insecure in his connection with N, 2) unaware of how much N cared about him, and 3) unaware of how much he would care about N’s opinion of him (sorry, that’s convoluted). We know he is not a decisive person, so he let this nightmare scenario play out and is now living with the consequences of his passivity. 

That is ALL TO SAY: I think it’s possible to believe that L was involved with the pap pics AND that he cares about N/didn’t want to hurt her/is totally in love with her. Anyone else out there who feels like it’s possible to hold these two truths in your head at once?

so this is more of a take I saw floating around in the wake of it all

curious to see how it lands with y'all now

SPOILERS for Across the Spiderverse, ganna rant about Gwen’s character and the unnecessary hate she gets. 💀

After finally seeing Spiderverse, yeah…I don’t trust Gwen haters. Like holy shit, I have seen SO many people get on her ass. And I get it. She lied to Miles, she let him down, she screwed up. I think what just ticks me off is that people today just love making everything so fucking black and white. This film isn’t one note, it’s complex. You feel for BOTH sides, not just Miles. I never thought some people would need to have it spelled out but….Miles wasn’t the only character going through something. Gwen does too, and this film explores that, like it legit makes me wonder if people just…turned their brains off whenever the film focused on her, which was legit most of the first half.

Not only was she still carrying the weight of her friend’s death while also feeling guilt of leaving him, but her own father is a cop who is out to get spider woman, believing that she is a criminal who let Peter die. It isn’t easy on Gwen, the opening scene of her trying to get lost in playing the drums and shutting down her band mates shows that she wants to avoid her feelings. Miles was the ONLY friend she had, she didn’t make any other close friends other than Peter. She felt alone, she felt trapped, and once her identity was revealed to her father, the moment he tries to arrest her is her breaking point, it’s why she joined Miguel and the others. She had nowhere to go, she felt like she couldn’t go back and was utterly alone until the spider crew accepted her.

When it comes to Gwen and some of the other characters, some of y’all need to see their perspective. They all lost someone they loved, someone they cared about, and Miguel comes to them and tells them that their trauma happened for a reason. It made them stronger, it made them move forward and created who they are today. They all felt alone at one point, only to realize that they weren’t. They also know that you can’t save everyone, and wether Miguel’s point of view is morally corrupt or not, everyone felt they were doing what was right.

In Gwen’s case, she WANTED to see Miles, and she DID see Miles. She wanted to hang out with him so badly but couldn’t, and you eventually see her guilt for not telling Miles the full story, how he wasn’t supposed to be here, how his dad is going to die and he can’t do anything about it. She felt like she had no choice, Jessica was strict on her (for good reason) and Gwen knew she had a job to do, she like everyone else wanted to save the multiverse and protect everyone, even if it meant breaking Miles, and his dad’s death. I don’t want to make it sound like I’m excusing Gwen, but I find it so funny that people beg for complex and flawed characters, and then when we actually get them, they’re targeted for making mistakes. Cause yeah, god forbid a teenage girl feels alone, doesn’t know what to do, and makes a mistake.

And what’s even more insulting is that Gwen actually REALIZED her mistake. She knows she fucked up, she KNOWS she hurt Miles and let him down, her line of “we’re supposed to be the good guys”- is important because that’s her realizing just how far Miguel took it to a bad level. We all see how utterly broken she is when Miles tells her he should have never come, and broke her web off. In the end, she switches sides and decides to GO AFTER Miles. That’s her making a choice, realizing she was wrong and doing the right thing. Gwen is still a good person guys. She cares for Miles, she’s not a snake or malicious. She’s a troubled teen who wants to be a hero, but was split between two sides, along with the weight on her back regarding her father and her friend. This movie begs the question of saving one person or making sacrifices to safe others. You understand BOTH sides even if Miguel went about it the wrong way.

Speaking of Miguel, the last thing I want to talk about is the obvious sexism going on, cause I feel like that mostly stems from why so many people hate Gwen, cause MAN do people lose brain cells when they’re horny. Like…let me get this straight, y’all get on Gwen, a teenage girl btw….call her a bitch, a snake who doesn’t deserve Miles and a horrible person, but praise a grown man who ridiculed, chased down, clawed, and body slammed a 15 year old kid, calling him a mistake over and over again all because he wanted to save his father???? Yeah okay, if you’re someone who doesn’t like Gwen, fine…but if you hate on her and praise Miguel, a dude who needs therapy and beefed with a 15 year old……then you’re just sexist…I don’t know what to tell you. Same goes for Jessica Drew. Like so many people are quick to say Miguel is complex and that they get where he’s coming from, but when it’s Gwen or Jessica?? They’re just bitches apparently. 🫤

So yeah, regardless of if you like her character or not, Gwen deserves better fr. I for one can’t wait for the next film and to see her mend her relationship with Miles, because they do genuinely have a good relationship, they just need to fix it. That’s all I wanted to say…oh, and one more thing, the way the animators on the movie got treated was NOT okay and the film better be delayed. No way in hell is it coming out next year. Do better Sony/Phil Lord ect, treat your animators right. Kay bye.

Bengiyo's Queer Cinema Syllabus

Had a busy couple weeks, but here I am, returning to @bengiyo’s queer cinema syllabus. I am currently working my way through Unit 4: Heartbreak Alley, the totally light-hearted, definitely not agonizing section of the syllabus where I get to watch countless acts of violence be committed against queer people. Thank fuck I have Lesbians waiting for me at the end of this unit. The films in Unit 4 are: Bent (1997), Strange Fruit (2004), Boys Don’t Cry (1999), Brokeback Mountain (2005), Parting Glances (1986), Philadelphia (1993), The Living End (1992), Holding the Man (2015), Jeffery (1995), and Boys on the Side (1995).

Today I will be writing about

Strange Fruit (2004) dir. Kyle Schickner

[Run Time: 88 min, Available: had to purchase a DVD, Language: English]

Content Warning: lynching, racism, homophobia, rape, violence/gore

Summary: A New York attorney must return home to Louisiana to investigate the death of a childhood friend who, like Boyals himself, was both black and gay. 

Cast: 

Kyle Faulcon as William Boyals

Berlinda Tolbert as Emma Ayers

__

Well.

First of all, I guess, a thank you to @bengiyo is in order for discovering that Strange Fruit was available on DVD so that I was actually able to watch it. This has joined the likes of Mysterious Skin on my ‘definitely something I needed to watch, but can probably never watch again” list. 

I want to warn anyone that is considering finding this film and watching it that it starts with a lynching. I…. I’m not sure I have the words. Not to get too real on main, but I have some pretty major trauma related to hangings, and I am just desperately glad that I did not watch this last week, as that was the anniversary and I am not confident I would have been able to finish this film. As it is I have been sitting in complete and utter silence since finishing the movie because a) holy shit b) the rope burns on his neck c) holy shit. 

How do you watch a film like this knowing that lynchings still happen all the time? How do you watch a film where a gay Black man in a small, rural country town is brutally beaten, raped with a branch, and hung from a tree on screen while knowing that just last week a Black man was found hanging from a tree in a small, rural country town? For a movie that was filmed on a budget of only $250,000 (according to Wikipedia, the director was offered 6 million if he didn’t make the lead character both Black and gay and he turned it down) it is absolutely packed with very important, nuanced social commentary around queerness, around race, around homophobia in general and homophobia within the Black community specifically, around how the police uphold power, around the relationship between intellectualism and the South, and around how the queer community survives. 

(sorry for the abysmal photo quality, there are no photos of this film and I watched it on my TV so I was not able to take screen shots)

For as cheaply as it was made it packs a motherfucking punch let me tell you, watching Kelvin scream for help, call for his mother, was just gut wrenching. Watching William desperately plead with the Black men who were lynching him not to do so because they were perpetuating the cycle of violence done by white men to black men not that long ago. How some Black men were fine with that because Kelvin, because William were faggots. How others killed themselves when the dust settled, understanding the realities of what they had done. The speech at the grocery story between Mrs. Ayers and Mrs. Boyals about how desperately Mrs. Ayers had wanted to disown Kelvin for being gay and how grateful she was that she hadn’t because she lost Kelvin too young. 

The way small town loyalties and small town fears intersect, Matthew being so grateful that William protected him all the way back in fifth grade that he went against the orders of the other cops to tell William everything he knew, and how he was so afraid to be considered a homosexual if he stood up for a queer man. The way Sheriff Jensey was a racist, homophobic piece of flaming dog shit who still was doing everything he could to prevent people from knowing his nephew was gay. How he was reduced to ground meat for it. (Though, he can die, I have no remorse for him whatsoever). The way Mrs. Ayers calls out the fact that William can pass as straight but Kelvin couldn’t. The way that the queer community was silent in the wake of Kelvin’s death because that was the only way to guarantee the survival of community pillars. The fact that there was no new coverage of Kelvin’s death that we could see, but when the white man was lynched, there were news trucks all over the place because someone in power was affected. 

And perhaps my favorite example, Duane, who refuses to step foot in a gay bar for fear of looking gay when he first starts investigating his brother’s murder with William who is ready to throw hands at Sheriff Jensey’s nephew when he makes a homophobic comment, putting his parole at risk, who ends the film driving around in William’s rental car which has the word Faggot spray painted on the back. The way he was angry at William for the stupid, elitist shit he was saying, about how everyone in Louisiana had an IQ below 80, how he refused to call this place his home anymore. Duance handled those moments so beautifully. There are so many important scenes in this film, I don’t think I can count this one as my favorite, but I do need to acknowledge how happy I was that Strange Fruit let a Black man cry on screen. Like, so much of Kelvin’s murder, and William’s attempted murder was incredibly upsetting, but I felt very deep in my soul the pain, the grief, the nausea that Duane must have been feeling looking at the memorial to his brother at his murder site. 

I know because (again to get too real) for every day for months after my hanging related trauma I had to walk past a memorial for the person who passed, and let me tell you that shit was fucking brutal. 

There is so much more that could be said about this movie, but genuinely, I cannot find the words. The production team knew what they were doing when they didn’t put a backing track on the end credits, opting for a silence that was interrupted by only the chirping of crickets. Because that is what this movie is, that is what this movie does. I am not exaggerating when I say that the only thing I could do for thirty minutes after the screen went to black, was just sit on my couch, frozen, and feel the weight of the silence around me. 

Favorite Moment 

I talked about this a bit above but my favorite moment in Strange Fruit is when Mrs. Ayers and Mrs. Boyals run in to each other in the supermarket and Mrs. Ayers gives a very passive aggressively polite talking to to Mrs. Boyals about her homophobia, trying to get her to go back on her decision to disown William after finding out he was gay. I do think it is vitally important that we get a scene where a mother of a queer son, who just lost her child because of it, is able to admit that she struggled with his sexuality, that she desperately wanted to be rid of Kelvin, that she desperately wanted to forget he even existed. The way she was spared from having a major regret in her life because she ultimately did not do that. She lost Kelvin when he was too young, she understands at a cellular level the precious nature of time, and how easily it can be squandered and she is trying to spare Mrs. Boyals from that pain. I appreciate it strikes enough of a chord with Mrs. Boyals that she attempts to visit William at the hospital, even if ultimately she is not able to make it through the doorway to his room. 

Favorite Quote

“See that’s the thing about the bayou, no matter how much you try to push it back ‘ventually it’s gonna claim what belong to it. This is where you from man. This is where home is. Don’t matter how many degrees you got, you country.”

As a Southerner who did flee North, Duane’s words are still ring true. Even when my home state wants to dispose of people like me, even when states I have called home express their hatred of people like me, there is still a part of me that feels the emptiness of being away from home. I miss the mangroves, I miss the mountains, I miss the food, I miss the people I love who love me. It feels impossible to have the type of community I had back home up where I am now, and I am trying as hard as I can to cultivate it. I just love this line so much because I think it is important to remember where you came from, especially because William just before this was insulting the intelligence of people in the South, his people, from his home. I’m really glad he apologized for that. 

Score

8.5/10

If this was a grade based on just emotional manipulation, the film would get a 10 cause...fuck. But structurally I think it's probably like a 7 or an 8 so I am gonna give it an 8.5.

[jedi-enthusiast]

Debunking the "The Jedi are Evil" Theory Made by The Film Theorists PT 6

Point 6 - The Jedi Left Shimi in Slavery

Continuing on, Matthew says this:

"In fact, the Jedi care so little about the relationship between parent and child, that in the Prequel trilogy Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan literally leave Anakin's mother on Tatooine to continue living in slavery in Episode 1. We're told that they take Anakin, but not his mother because they don't have the money to buy her freedom from Watto."

WRONG!

And, what's funny is, he plays the exact clip that shows this is wrong right after he makes this statement.

They didn't free her because Watto refused, likely because he didn't want to lose both his slaves in one day, but not because they didn't have enough money or wouldn't pay the price Watto set.

---

Matthew quote, continued:

"But then a decade goes by without him ever following up. At no point during the 10 year period did anyone bother to think- 'Hey, maybe we should, you know, go check on Anakin's mother to make sure she's alive or, I don't know, maybe go back to buy her freedom since we have the money to do it, and we've won the war, and her son happens to be the most powerful Force-user in history.'"

First of all, Qui-Gon fucking dies like the day after freeing Anakin--so he can't follow up--and Obi-Wan, for a nice chunk of time afterwards I'd say, is a little too busy dealing with the grief of losing his Master (or his "parent," since obviously Matthew thinks parental relationships are the only ones that matter), the mental turmoil of killing a Sith, and also the sheer whiplash of "holy shit I'm now responsible for a whole other human being, what do I do???"

Like, there's literally a whole thing in a book where Obi-Wan is like "does Anakin know how to swim???" so I think there were some more pressing matters on his mind than worrying about Shmi.

I will also say that in another video Matthew says that Shmi and Anakin were just fine as slaves because Watto is shown to "treat them well," so he can't really use both arguments in this situation. If Shmi was "just fine" in slavery, then why should the Jedi go back to check on her or free her?

Either she's fine and the Jedi have no reason to go check on her, or she's not fine and the Jedi need to.

One or the other, buddy.

Plus, only Obi-Wan, Qui-Gon, and Anakin knew about Shmi. Qui-Gon dies, Obi-Wan is juggling enough things as is, and Anakin clearly never tells anyone else about his mother--so what was anyone else supposed to do about someone they didn't even know existed?

Second...you're getting your movies and also literally everything that happens mixed up.

The Jedi do not "win the war," a war fucking starts--which spreads them thin across the galaxy to the point that they can barely take care of the problems right under their noses without another fire starting somewhere else that they need to get to, so I doubt they'd have the time to go searching for Shmi. Plus, at the end of that war, the Jedi get fucking genocided...idk what you want them to do while they're getting murdered in the halls of their home.

Now, if you're talking about the mess on Naboo, that is over at the end of TPM--not in the "10 year span" you're talking about. It wouldn't be a stretch to say that, if Obi-Wan did go back to try and buy Shmi's freedom, that Watto's answer would be the same, and what would be the point of Obi-Wan going back a day after Watto already refused to ask the same question again?

And why isn't Padme held to the same standard?

Why aren't you asking why she--with more money, power, time, and resources--didn't go back to free Shmi?

Interesting double standard there.

---

Matthew quote continued:

"What makes the death of Anakin's mother all the more tragic, is that all of it could have been prevented. He reaches her just as she's in her dying breaths. Had he arrived days, or even hours earlier, his journey to Tatooine might not have ended with him having to bury her. The only reason that Anakin even knew about her is because he could sense her suffering."

Yeah, it could have been prevented...if Anakin had actually told anyone about his dreams.

In AotC Anakin mentions to Obi-Wan that he's been having dreams about his mother, but he doesn't elaborate. And when Obi-Wan tries to talk to him about those vague dreams that Anakin is telling him fuck-all about, Anakin switches the subject to Padme and doesn't bring it up to Obi-Wan again.

The Jedi are shown again and again to be extremely empathetic and, as I said before, they don't bar people from visiting their biological families if that's what they choose. If Anakin had actually told Obi-Wan "I've been having dreams of my mother dying on Tatooine and I can literally sense her pain and suffering," odds are that Obi-Wan would have encouraged him to go and check on her.

And it's made clear that Anakin was having those dreams for a while. His mother was gone for a month. If, at any point in time Anakin had actually told someone about his dreams, he probably could've gone to check on her earlier and would've been able to save her.

The only reason that Anakin wasn't supposed to go later on in the movie was because he was literally the sole person responsible for the safety of a very important Senator who people were actively trying to assassinate.

"So? Whaddaya say?" Samu raises his head and asks with a little smirk.

"I say you better tell me why you look seconds away from plotting a murder. Most probably mine. Is this poisoned?" I gestured towards the last piece of strawberry mochi left on the plate.

"Ya ask that after the 7th piece?" I shrugged.

"It's really good. I say you should go for it." He nodded and left most probably to greet some customers while I fell deep in thought.

Nostalgia has been a lot more present in the last few days, and it got to me. I can't say that I miss home physically, but the warmth and radiance it brough. We've all made great memories here, but I cannot help but feel like something's missing.

I am usually not one to say I regret things I didn't do, it's a consolation price that I didn't make a fool of myself and the thought that I should be grateful for the choices I made still holds me together in some sense. But my resistance seems to slowly crumble at one tiny tiny question: if I did something-if one thing had been different, would everything be different today? Would my courage be rewarded with the warmth of a beating heart and a beaming smile, or would it be crushed by rotten delusion?

I pride myself by loving freely, but I have always been somewhat afraid of things that cross the borders of friendship, and I beileve that the only other thing that may best this fear is the slight ache for the warmth of feeling. But I'm turning 20 soon, should this be so hard? Should I still be afraid? I take a bite of the last mochi and make my way to change the music. I glance at the door and the restaurant is mostly empty. Perfect.

What could possibly fit better than "The 1" ?

°•I guess you never know, never know

And if you wanted me, you really should've showed

And if you never bleed, you're never gonna grow

And it's alright now

But we were something, don't you think so?

Roaring 20s, tossing pennies in the pool

And if my wishes came true

It would've been you

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I guess you never know, never know

And it's another day waking up alone

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I, I, I persist and resist the temptation to ask you

If one thing had been different

Would everything be different today?•°

I rest my head on one of the counters, absorbing the meliodic melancholy of the song, up until I hear a voice simmilar to Samu's screaming from the restaurant.

"Oi! Cut off that depressive shit!" Shit. Atusmu's here.

It's not that I have anything against the guy, but he sucks a lot at flirting.

"Shaddap Tsumu!" Samu screamed back. Thank God. If that guy knew I was here, he'd never leave me alone until I left if he's in one of his macho moods. But before I could go back to fucking up Samu's playlist I heard a rich laugh.

"Come on Tsumu it was a nice song!" Even though the voice was slightly deeper I could never mistake it.

Now, I am not one to make any rash decisions, but....This is not my proudest moment. At least the brooms in the closet are pink.

Nope.

There is no way.

Last time I checked the dude was in Brazil trying out beach volleyball.

No fucking way I just saw red hair while bolting to the closet.

Nope.

Fun facts:

- the movie night went well, everyone was in high spirits and the atmosphere was chaotically joyful, yachi was unable to stay till and squeacked every 5 minutes, tsukishima smiled a couple of times after receiving his little dino sketch from yn, shimizu and samu exchanged some recepies and koushi insisted on self care masks while watching the film.

-yn basically screeched while running towards the nearest closet and later wondered how in the hell no one heard her. Her breath was cut short when she realised who was on the other side of the wall.

-yn always refrained of romance because she was utterly afraid of it, of the rawness and wilderness. She liked stable, quiet and melodic. But everything changed once she got into karasuno high. She secretly wished he would say something, afraid that the shine in his eyes wasn't reserved for her and was a usuality for him. Yes. She wore his jersey and rooted for him. And he looked happy.

Rudy in need of affection vs Reader in need of sleep

...Benni's SO being kidnapped by Rudy-

.......Benni and Rudy deciding to share?

I- holy shit you’re a goldmine.

—

Mine Now — Benni Winters v Rudy

GN!Reader

Warnings: kidnap, violence, love triangle, sad stuff kinda at the start, obsession, manipulation, swearing

—

• What the fuck?

• What the fuck?

• What the actual fuck!?

• Benni’s silver eyes are wide as she watches this dragon-girl-thing carry you away. She’s in shock, staring up into the cloudy sky as you become smaller and smaller in the distance.

• It takes her a minute, but she’s soon howling like a wounded animal, running in the direction of the beast’s destination, stumbling over tree roots and rocks repeatedly.

• All she wanted was to go on a cute camping trip with you on a mountain range, yet you had to be been kidnapped by a fucking dragon!

• Benni was furious and terrified, tears blurring her vision as she clambered over stumps and climbed up hills to try and keep up, but your kidnapper was way faster.

• Panting, she staggers to a stop on top a huge cliff, watching the two of you fly away. Her heart is hammering, cheeks wet with tears as she sobs loudly.

• “Y/n..” She calls pathetically, sniffling.

• She couldn’t bare the thought of never seeing you again. It was too much. She was panicking, struggling for breath. She needed you. You were her life support.

• She can see that you’re heading to one of the tallest mountains, at least 15 miles south, and she knows she’s never going to get there in time to save you, before that beast eats you or worse.

• But she doesn’t care, taking a five minute break just to continue on, running on pure adrenaline. She’s grateful she stuck to that daily workout routine, and she was used to the burn.

• Meanwhile, you and your kidnapper have landed in a cave. You’re terrified but intrigued.

• This dragon thing is merely a small girl, with scruffy raven hair and large red wings and tail. She was adorable, and the way she latched onto you like you were her god had your heart skipping a beat.

• “H-hey,” you whisper, smiling softly.

• “Pretty,” she coos, touching your face with a clawed hand. This makes you blush in embarrassment.

• “O-oh? Um, thanks…” You give an uneasy grin, not sure what she wants from you. You look around. The cave is full of treasure, everything shiny of some sort.

• She sees you looking and grins proudly. “Shinies!”

• “They’re… wonderful,” you laugh gently.

• The dragon-girl nods and points to your hand, where your diamond engagement ring glimmered. “Shiny.”

• Oh, did she want your ring?

• “Um, I’m sorry, but this is mine,” you politely say, fiddling with it.

• The girl just smiles, before taking your hand and pulling you over to her big pile of gold. She makes you sit down.

• “Shiny.” She points at you.

• Oh. She wanted you to stay…

• You knew that Benni would be freaking out. She hated it when you even went out with your friends, let anyone be kidnapped by someone. You wouldn’t be surprised if she had a heart attack.

• “Rudy,” the girl says, sitting next to you, resting her chin on your arm.

• “Y/n,” you reply. You couldn’t help but feel bad. She was clearly lonely, and looked at you as if you hung the stars.

• It took nearly two days for Benni to reach you. She was exhausted, after walking so far and climbing so high. She hadn’t eaten or slept, too focused on saving you.

• So as she managed to heave herself over the ledge in which Rudy’a cave resided, she practically crawls inside, ready to fight for your life.

• But then she sees you asleep, cuddled up with your kidnapper.

• She’s confused, relieved, happy, sad, fearful, annoyed. She just stares at you, chest heaving.

• “Seriously?” She whines out loud, waking you two up.

• Rudy instantly bares her fangs, making a terrible hissing sound. You give Benni a look of absolute relief, giving her a glimmer of hope.

• “Away!” Rudy growls. “Mine!”

• “Piss off,” Benni grunts back. “I’m taking her back.”

• She goes towards you, and you reach out for her, but Rudy suddenly leaps at her, sinking her razor sharp teeth deep into her forearm.

• You scream in shock, and Benni lashes out, flinging the tiny girl across the room with ease. She holds her bleeding arm, and you take off your jacket and use it as a bandage.

• Benni wraps her arm around you, holding you close for a moment as you do this, taking in your scent. She’d missed you so much, scared you’d be nothing but a skeleton when she got here.

• Rudy watches from the corner, snarling and growing. How dare she touch her shiny?!

• She slowly approaches, scales flared and ears flat, ready to attack.

• “Rudy, no!” You plead, putting yourself in front of Benni. “Please. She’s good. She just wants to protect me too!”

• Benni looks at you, confused, as does Rudy.

• “Mate?” The dragon-girl asks, pointing at your lover. You nod gently and she frowns, pointing at herself sadly. “Mate…”

• “Is the little shit trying to ask you out?” Benni questions, unimpressed.

• You just sigh, looking at your fiancée with a tired and desperate expression.

SOUTH PARK: a note to God in the procession of heart and KEANU REEVES (season 16 ep 9) prt 1.

film making is a quality to be endured. a baby walking is just the same as Keanu Reeves fight scene in a single shot.

now watch me dance, watch me talk and watch how you will never grow up like the holy director, Mr. James. Cameron<3

Cartman tried to instigate the viewers heart in a joke but like all jokes take a dimensional hit (offense), Keanu Reeves wakes up one morning and thinks 'who is the actual viewer?' and he later turns to the British public he calls 'Americans' in which he reflects himself off from everyday inside a dome.

enough about Keanu, Hollywood is just an American store (trader joes, Costco, or any other branch that provides excessive weight gain but no heart or guilty pleasure to give a fck about or why are you even there.....) Hollywood teaches you that everything in there you feed off is a store, your weight is gained by how much you eat without giving a shit, without giving a shit about your diet, about your family's lives, you'll just eat yourself to death which is why you keep trading your body parts for....... a... heart?.... but... they don't want it...so they'll do the second... best thing.. which is.... pray?????????? the islamic re-introduction is how and why Cillian Murphy is now exalted on Islamic bias cuz all he does is stare at a screen and moves on with it, the man does not speak or do anything, it's why Keanu Reeves is into gun porn and Cillian just makes guns that doesn't involve porn, he knows what not to do which is why i'm technically the second best coming to Keanu Reeves life cuz he got no shit compared to what he did in the past 25+ years compared to one dog year in Cillian's life is 'how the fck did you sell your soul and keep yourself so cool that way, why don't you want to just play with a gun... oh' (Keanu's dialogue to Cillian almost all the time after Keanu saw me get an award for being best actor on the Oscars for... doing the.... oh... Keanu realised that Cillian does not do but he says lines that are too meaningful... no. he knows how to hide his beauty by exposing it, Cillian is a regular woman outside of Hollywood to Keanu's butch lesbian and nobody wants him and he is long gone old and forgetting)

STREETS OF PHILADELPHIA IS PLAYING AT THE BACKGROUND, MY LORD💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀 he wanders to believe in a new future as 'that guy' *that's the subtext of 'what if Keanu Reeves were a different man but the same man died in him a while ago since Alexandra Grant did not use her pension privileges to manifest social media to her life right now*

Alexandra Grant is one of the team, she knew shit to go back after shit to smell shit in the air. she calls it oxygen and to her it has a 'strange smell'

if you did not know who James Cameron is then you're wrong to think Mel Gibson was uprooting his idea to produce Titanic to make people think differently about him now by taking his ide.... no. Mel Gibson, once upon a time i watched a Simpsons episode on Mel Gibson and i referenced SP for it, and it's not as crazy as Mel Gibson to remake Homer's idea for everyone that they'll be laughing at for the next 20 years which is a Hollywood day and it was one longest day because actually, James Cameron did not direct the Titanic, he went after the ship to look at in the end, Mel Gibson directed it and Homer Simpson directed the episode of SP with Cartman playing today's society's problematic scheme cuz the moment endured is when stupid men are the smartest men in the world cuz he is a girl. dad. THEY KNOW HOW TO RUN THE WORLD. SIMPSONS PLAY YOUR MIND, MEL GIBSON WENT THERE AND GONE BUT SP IS FOREVER AND JAMES CAMERON LIKED SHIPS

this episode (season 11 ep 1) is actually directed by Stone and Parker (South Park creators to you dumbasses who don't know who the legends you tried to watch in secret when your mothers are gone, she knows your porno stash too but is being a good Dad while you hate your actual Mom (Dad)

(Simpson as acting 'Stone and Parker' makes a reasonable offence to honour the actual movie he 'made' with Gibson in the 90's version, make it preachy to give offence to actual state of guard, like what the hell was he trying to claim the senate for, what and why did Cartman (Gibson) was claiming the overall attitude in the UK was possessing the ideals of the overall limits in UK if it wasn't there, how the fck did the 3rd countries become okay with... Pakistan? Kyrgyzstan?...... *gracie films end credits shows up*

it's just that but with more enthusiasm

THE HOMO-EROGENY AND THE ENTHUSIASM OF

ADELE!

fuck you too, cuz if Demi gets a mention then i'm just as psychotic as Mel Gibson with no.. wait a sec, i am him. legendary, but possibly thinking, i'm not as stupid to think where my algorithm will go cuz my crazy bitchass knows my heart to think i am not a

socially recluse hasbeen Gomez and what her ideology is just as fucked up as Tom Cruise promoting Catholicism like it wasn't even there cuz how is a rich homemade woman like her have a brand associated with a genetic condition she doesn't even fcking have

like what the fck is that?

weight = goals. the picture you see is just me but you would say if 'Rare' came to help her, a second forthcoming brand of grandeur and hope that would have saved millions if she was not as Honey Boo Boo's style of 'healthy'. HBB promotes heart and grandeur, like youth needs to be reclaimed with greatness, a happy father and a trustworthy mother is what you call 'Rare'

just imagine how many people said 'and I'll bet there's somebody else out there, to tell me I'm rare, to make me feel rare', with that kind of voice, you could have set old ideals apart and put the astrologer become wholesome man in the end (i got your back) Tom Cruise out of his job, like there wasn't anyone out there like Selena who would have saved Demi's life from a tragic overdose in twenty eighte- wait, Selena created the universe. let's make her think she was the most illuminated form in the world that could have saved her from an impending doom from Bieber's tragic fairytale that could have been in the Holy hell of forever from 'somebody' killing her from another likely to Lovato's actual appearance (healthy people to her is those who like people)

PAY CLOSE ATTENTION TO THE WORLD OF AN ACTUAL MAN. NOT DIRECTOR, BUT ASSOCIATE.. NO, JUST AN ACTUAL MAN TO A CELEBRITY THAT ACTED LIKE HE HAD A GREAT HOBBY MANIFESTED TO A LIFE JOURNEY HE CAN NEVER FORGET, WHAT IF HE HAD A ☆DREAM☆

Keanu's orgasm is just 'what if i was a working class man'

47 Ronin does not limit, he only shed James Cameron's light by taking away the actual personification of the universe if he were not James Cameron, like there is much more than the empires told from just Japanese myths and fables about you not giving a shit, i understand when Hiroyuki Sanada committed casually because the arts of Japanese social justice came from and i remember (paraphrased cuz the movie was a long ago since i watched it) 'farmers hands got more value cuz clean hands are of ones like a pig' and it hit me in the face when nothing more than Keanu wanted was to think the world of 'demons' were just Muslim women liking to work for a living which has had so much hands and art than the average man, casually; Keanu made fun of Pashtun's (tribe in Pakistan that has more heart and heritage than Keanu's life in one go if Ted had a philosophical reason to go back, he would have learned on how to be a better man. but the idea solidified and went to the worlds most unexpected. (welcome aboard, girls) Bill and Ted in real life is just Syd&Olivia)

they are the worlds most stoned people in the planet in need of a heart breaking in a heart breaking, they like a casually off standish old man who doesn't give a shit and makes the world look like the fucking crime seeking justice they need (i love you, man) let me introduce you to

Malcolm fucking Tucker. is Rufus, George Carlin's biggest dream come true is a man of oxygen relating to the women his age and just beating life up senselessly in modern day America, not just a pornographic nightmare they had in the 80's in time travel (God forgive Alex Winter)

that guy, in case your dumbasses forgot names of celebrities you forget but never forgot. (the phase where you don't want to call out a celebrities name but you already know, shows that you're in love but who the fuck calls it that anymore, women are sad. they don't want sex but someone out there, call him granddad but

this guy ain't your age either, and neither is he granddad, call him how you want it but if you like someone, you like them but you like them cuz the amount of energy it takes... you watched it havent you? so you hate Malcolm Tucker but like him as the.. no. you don't deserve him, he ain't your Daddy. no. he OWNS YOU like the mega corporations he has under his big di-)

same fucking guy which is why you like Ted but you hate Bill, and that says something cuz you hate Ted but you don't want Bill to like Bill cuz DILF Bill is much more... call him ugly you stupid sonofabitch. some depressed Keanu fangirl, fuck you

ummmmmmm. how is your rights not even.. just drink.. water (Cartman makes changes and Kyle hates.. him?... is the show even real anymore or is Kyle the most irritating.... wait a sec he's not even there anymore...??.............)

SAG-AFTRA mocks AI but ends up building a quality of life of an average 'Brit'. makes a truthful (mockumentary) also follows the breakthrough of satanic comeuppance of a melodic dinosaur, Randy Newman is the guest host of the body of the heartbreaker (life was a toy story but only adults pretend to get the reference, so you're not even a true Disney Pixar fan either, HA ha)

porno is toys but you're too dumb to make that reference (fuck you Zoe Lewis)

viewers forget that Token (Tolkien for the Rwandan kind)

is rich.

how did a black man change the show when the concept of the whole fucking Song

is based on River Song's timeline.

Randy Newman generated a new psycho-neo cult that manifested on the Doctor's timeline that Black people (alt-white) have a goal that they would actually shut people up forever.... and of course Ncuti (pronounced 'shootee') is scoring up a future River Song regenerate to get laid with him on-screen cuz the nigga finessed a shot that wasn't even his cuz the creators of South Park made evidence that James Cameron's dream was to recast Titanic like one brown and one black to be together like that, Shootee doesn't want to fucking tell anybody why he's on Tumblr right now waiting for my post to come through when i discovered the anima-

Kingston said 'keep moving *makes a contorted face to mimic me cuz i know Kingston in real life.*

yeah, Shootee. that message was for you and it was personal. she really would have digged in on big black productions

keep writing fan fictions cuz this could be you one day. do you remember when time magazine put you guys as 'person of the year' in the year 2006? why did you not put that up on your CV or Resume to keep you looking classy, this is no generative score that you could have been... an asshole.. but you're.. the worlds most... greatest asshole

like where the hell is your honour

*cartoon in moral dilemma when the story never ends with toys but the player doesn't know when to stop giving in*, so Newman is technically me right now. it's all the kids who grew up with action figures being the guise of 'youth and giving in' does not appeal to them anymore but it's the ones who played way too much (actors) that appeared to be deeper than literal filmmakers (sorry Cameron) that made directors wonder why Cillian Murphy got an Oscar when his personality looks like this.

time stamp (16:10 - 16:48)

Goddamn

Keanu's pandemonium. and Cameron's retelling of the Titanic with the actual ship he found, he will later know his life's work with Cillian is actually worth it because he has got more Vanguard than Keanu's award worth mentioning or making the original South Park creators look like Daedalus to Keanu's Icarus. there is no retelling where and how Perdix became Weinsteins transitioning to Bruce Jenner's homophobia down at the lakes at the Hampton's when he decides to drop tha bar of soap.

this is kids entertainment to disgust adult minds, like have you seen the actual thought process of what went into the kids shows today that makes it look so damn innocent? that's what happens if the creators of South Park convince you 'anyone can watch it, just turn it off or fuck you for not telling them that YOU loved them' the paedophilia persona comes from unwarranted parents now who are excruciatingly jealous of their kids success that wants society to fuck them over because they don't have a brain or actual heart to do anything about their lives either.

(i will do another part)

Thoughts on The Way of Water

Aight I needed a day to process my emotions because HOLY SHIT what a great film. Like it was visually stunning as expected, but also I think the worldbuilding/plot ratio was perfect, and honestly I think the story this time was better than the original (not that I think Avatar’s storyline was bad, but this one was definitely more unique). Anyways, rambly thoughts incoming, and also major spoilers so stop here if you don’t want to read any of those.

The entire sequence of the Sky People returning was hands down the most horrifying thing I’ve seen in a film. I’ve seen a lot of gory shit, people being vaporised in The Day After, more slasher films than you can count... none of that made me sick to my stomach like this. Such a huge area of forest, full of life one moment and melted into slag in an instant. How many animals died a gruesome death in there? How many people? And we’ve seen what became of Earth, and know this is just a fraction of the destruction the Sky People can bring. I knew I was gonna have to strap in for quite a ride from this moment.

I really only have two complaints with this film. First off, it felt like Neytiri was kind of shoved to the side for the first two thirds of it. Like I get it, Jake is the Designated Protagonist and all that, but Neytiri is the one most affected by having to leave her people, and I don’t think we really got to see her process it much. She will very likely never see her clan again, her mother, the place where her ancestors lived and died. And we get like... five minutes of her being upset over it before she’s really not there until the final battle. I would have liked to see more of her processing her grief before she’s finally come to terms with staying in the end.

(And that’s not even mentioning how heartbreaking this must be for Mo’at... she’s literally lost her entire family to the Sky People.)

My other, more nitpicky gripe is why do the Metkayina seem to only speak English?? Like yeah on a practical level it’s a lot easier on everyone if most of the dialogue is in English, and I’m willing to suspend disbelief on where the hell they learned English in the first place. But none of the other reef clans spoke any English at all, and it doesn’t make sense that the Metkayina would use English when speaking among themselves. Hell, I think fucking Quaritch used more Na’vi than any of them did. I think it would have made a lot more sense to have at least the introduction to the Metkayina and the Tulkun return scenes in Na’vi.

Anyways away from the negative stuff. Can we talk about the symbolism in Eytukan’s bow breaking?? It really brings home the fact that Jake and Neytiri’s family are never going back to the Omaticaya, and this is probably what makes Neytiri realise it too. The bow was the last thing she had of her father, and likely the last physical tie she had to her clan, and now it’s gone.

While I know the Sky People are far from done trying to colonise Pandora, I’m optimistic that their efforts have been thoroughly fucked for now. The tulkun brain goo stuff that was funding literally everything is gone now (unless they build another demon ship I suppose but that costs money that they don’t have now). Also, I think Quaritch is a pretty defanged threat at this point. He looked... pretty not okay from losing Spider, and he’s now all alone and weaponless. Doubt the military is going to help him this time too. He has lost miserably to the Na’vi twice now, gotten a lot of their own guys killed and cost them a lot of money. They’re not gonna look on him too kindly methinks.

Speaking of Quaritch, canon be damned I say Spider was an in-vitro baby. I refuse to believe anyone slept with that son of a bitch.

NETEYAM NOOOO

Anyways I have other thoughts but this is already very long and becoming less coherent lol.

Time and My Wife

I'm not the oldest or the youngest anymore. I'm approximately halfway through the average human's lifespan, give or take some bad math.

What I am, however, is surprisingly scared of time passing forward. Passing me by, it feels like. Cherry, my wife, my best friend, my darling love, is in film school and is a staff favorite. She's smart, she's funny, she's quick-witted and well spoken, she's really the best person.

We met when we were 19. I was failing college because I was spending all my time gaming or flirting with anyone that looked at me. School just didn't feel important, and I didn't know what I wanted to do anyway, so why waste the time?

I wish I knew then what I did now, that I'd wasted a huge opportunity.

When we met, Cherry was best friends with another girl I was dating at the time, Allie. We didn't work out, obviously, and we ended up splitting for a variety of reasons. The primary one was that she was trying to get over her ex, and honestly I just wanted to be loved.

I still remember the first time I locked eyes with Cherry. I knew that she was going to be everything to me right away. She was everything I wanted to be. Alt, creative, funny, everything I said above. She's always been this amazing person. We exchanged Facebooks and I did what any classless loser does after getting broken up with by a girl.

I hit her friend up and asked if she wanted to hook up. I didn't want something serious, not really. But she seemed fun, and I knew that we'd at least have a good time together.

Cherry and I met, and we laid in the back of her Jimmy for hours, just talking and kissing. We never ended up having sex, because why would we? I could have kept laying there forever. But eventually it grew late, and dinner needed to be had. Fortunately, her friends were making dinner and she'd offered for me to tag along.

This was when I met two other important people in my life, Sun and Sky. Sky and I didn't get along at first. Hell, it took us ten years to figure out how to talk to each other, but we eventually got it figured out and we're tight these days. Now we shoot the shit about JRPGs whenever we've got the spare time, and I'm trying to get him playing FF14 with me.

Sun's always been a nice person. Truly just the kindest soul, unfortunately to her own detriment a lot of the time. We love Sun very deeply, and she's one of Cherry's best friends. When Cherry'd been tossed out by whatever parent had decided they didn't want to be responsible anymore, Sun, Allie, Sky, and a bunch of assholes I won't give fake names to banded together to help keep her safe.

Anyway, dinner. I don't remember what we ate, but I do recall corn. And feeling welcome. Genuinely, warmly welcomed. I was raised by WASPS (my dad is the disinherited heir of US royalty, no I won't say who), so warmth was something I had to grow accustomed to, and holy shit, that first time was something.

That first day together really solidified who I wanted to become.

It just took me a long time to get here.

Now we're at a halfway point, statistically speaking, and she's in school. I'm here, at the apartment, doing everything in my power to make sure her only job is to go to school. I clean, I cook, I work, I pack her lunches and make sure her bag's got everything she needs for the day. I love doing this for her, because I want her to know every fucking day just how much I love her.

But then she leaves for the day, and so does my roommate, and suddenly I'm here alone. Working, learning programming languages that barely click to me, designing web pages and doing sales calls. It's a big job I do. But I do it alone.

And that leaves me with a lot of Time.

Time and I used to be enemies. When I had Time, I'd fill it with dumb choices and life-altering mistakes. Nowadays we're still not friends, but we're not at each other's throats so much. I have to confess though, that I'm becoming scared of it as I'm getting older.

Isn't that a funny word, older? It's really just a mark of the passage of time. We wrinkle, we creak, we have to piss more often, things stop working quite as well as they used to.

But what do I have to show for it? My marriage, which is literally the best part of my life, no bones about it. My job, which is the result of nepotism. My car, which my dad got me.

What have I done with my time on this earth?

And the actual answer is grow. With the time I've spent here, I've answered for the sins of my Father, committed a few sins of my own and answered for those, moved forward in my life, and become a better person than I've ever been.

Now though, I'm grown. I'm ready to step outside the plant pot, you know? See what the world is really like. And as I watch my wife go through her education, I feel a little jealous. I'd pissed mine away at 19, and my folks told me that was that, if I wanted to go back to school I'd have to pay for it myself.

It feels like I'm watching time pass me by as the people around me grow too. I take care of them as they do what they need to in order to become who they want to be.

And now that I think on that, isn't that such an important fucking job? Isn't it kind of incredible that I'm comfortable enough in my skin to be able to get in the dirt and remove the weeds so that she can grow?

I guess, now that I'm thinking about it, that was always my thing. I've always loved taking care of and helping others. I think, now that I'm really considering it, I could be happy doing this for a very long time. School won't take forever, and eventually she won't need me to do this for her, but I think for now, I can just take joy in watching her find her confidence again.

Anyway, I've spent too long writing this. If anyone wants to play Final Fantasy, hit me up!

My Live Heartstopper 2 Reactions

Right so this is an EXTREMELY long post and I know nobody cares but it helped me get all my emotions out in a healthy way instead of punching walls so that’s a plus 👍🏻. MAJOR MAJOR MAJOR SPOILERS, so be warned, aight? Some of my reactions are genuinely funny—wish I had filmed myself because oh boy.

(TW: Eating disorders and homophobia. Also: Chaos, spoilers, and unhealthy fangirling).

Episode 1

Oh my god I’m literally more nervous for this than I was for my tattoo I’m gonna cry

HI ❤️

Charlie you better eat that cereal why are you just holding it.

The soundtrack is already banging holy balls.

THIS SCENE IS SO CUTE OH MY GOSH.

AGGRESSIVE KISSING OH MY GOD THAT WAS CRAZY THE PASSION I—

They’re so happy. I’m so happy they’re happy. And the smile every time they greet each other. And they’re BESTIES which is SO REAL.

THE UPSIDE-DOWN KISS SHOT WAS MAGICAL—

Ooh I missed the little sparkles of Heartstopper

Need this tattooed on my body fr.

Elle is gorgeous. Elle is gorgeous. Elle is gorgeous and I love her. She’s gorgeous. Oh my gosh my sapphic heart wants her so bad.

That was weird. Oop—that product placement is as a tiny bit goofy? Was the product placement? I’ve only read one book.

No she fancies Ben—I already can see it coming. No NO NO NO NO IMOGEN NO.

Oh I can feel the stress. I have to look up what this test is I guess because I can FEEL the stress—NEVERMIND I KNOW WHAT THE STRESS IS—

This is an incredible scene. Oh my FUCKING god.

This teacher is really doing the most for no reason.

I NEED YOU.

Of course Harry’s out here saying some slightly misogynistic shit out the gate.

Elle and Tao will be magical together I already know.

YES OH MY GOD THEY GET DOODLES TOO?????? YESSSSSSS.

Bro is this product placement or is it in the comics. It must be in the comics and I just don’t know about it lmao. Because otherwise this product placement is WILD.

UH OH NO UH OH STOP PLEASE I CAN’T—alright it’s fine. Everything’s fine. Deep breaths. Whew all good.

As a partially-closeted gay person that was a lot for me.

I love Tori and her actress so much (is actress still a real term??? I feel like it’s not).

This is cute huh.

I love Imogen. I love Imogen. She’s so cute.

SHE’S AN ALLY IM PISSING—

God Elle is gorgeous in every scene.

Tao’s hair isn’t even bad idk what everybody was saying in the first season it’s goofy but it’s not the worst haircut in the world.

The SOUNDTRACK ARE YOU KIDDING

“I think Nellie loves him” NO YOU

The queer extras are my favorite in the whole world.

NON-BINARY PERSON oh my god hi me too

God she’s perfect here. To be fair she’s just generally perfect. THE THREE OF THEM ARE PERFECT.

What a lovely conversation for this show to have, so simple and so chill and so real.

Oh Tao. I love you I wish I could give you a hug, poor dude.

If Ben fucks up Nick’s math exam istg—

Oh Imogen—I’m so sorry sweetheart.

Oh shit fuck this feels like such unnecessary stress I hate hate hate hate hate this—NO BRO RAISE YOUR HAND AND TELL HER—

Bro if he’s in trouble I’m gonna lose it I will literally be so sad.

Bro what marvel movie were they watching ????? Hello ????? Also—David is still here isn’t he?

NELLIE IS PERFECT.

No no no no no no no no no bro I’m gonna be physically ill.

PUNCH THAT MF IN THE FACE holy FUCK.

Oh my god this is so sad, but also definitely the conflict I’m here for and not this schoolwork shit. I hate schoolwork conflicts.

It’s not your fault Charlie I’m so sorry.

God Mom he needs you right now are you serious?????

We all know damn well you did not eat at Nick’s.

To be so fair this is exactly what happened to me and my gf when we started telling people it just became a mess.

Oh god the voice memo was perfect Nick. That was such a perfect way to get your sincerity across. Wow I LOVE that.

CUT YOUR HAIR OUT OF JEALOUSY TAO !!!

That’s half a joke.

But I would do it (I’m crazy and petty).

Cantonese is very soft or maybe it was just the way she said it but my ears liked it.

I deadass thought she was gonna be right behind him lmao.

Episode 3

IKEA??????? Boy.

Aw nice boys. Thank you.

The way Otis just looked back like bro are you serious—

Damn it he almost had it shit.

Charlie and Joe are ebbing and flowing and I love that he’s like 15-dimensional it’s so nice and natural I love Joe he is so talented.

YAY SHE IS SO NICE ARE YOU SERIOUS???? SHE HAS A WIFE. My girlfriend did women’s rugby gayest sport in the world. I literally just jumped up and down this show is so good fuck.

HER LITTLE GIGGLE SDFGHJKL

Tao not on the school computer wtf.

I’m like actually stressed about Charlie’s paper and Nick’s math I remember being stressed and fucked up by these things and I do not like the coursework issues as pieces of plot it really gets me—not to say it’s the show’s fault. I think that’s just because school killed me.

Oh Tara and Darcy.

I am in fear. I am currently in very much fear.

Ben looks like such an ass fr.

DARCY’S SARCASM IM PISSING—

HE IS SO SWEET ABSOLUTELY SO SWEET. HOLY PISS AND SHIT THIS IS PERFECT. AND HIS HAAAAAAIR. OH MY GOD THIS IS AMAZING.

THAT WAS ADORABLE.

They are very good together.

The 1975???? Slay?????

I LOVE TORI. IM PISSING.

“Look after him. Or you die.”

The most unrealistic thing about this show is that people don’t know they’re together when they’re always standing so fucking close together and glancing at each others’ mouths.

Now why is that popcorn so big.

Bro Elle looks perfect all the time I would also be awkwardly silent next to her.

Oh Tara.

Joe and Nick look SO GOOD in these outfits.

Elle definitely put her hand there on purpose so he’d grab it.

BRO WHAT IS GOING ON THIS IS PAINFUL.

I take it back Nick should’ve been wearing different pants.

Oh no this is literally my nightmare.

Bro Harry putting his arm around Nick like nothing’s wrong and the panic that must be flooding through Nick’s veins is so FUCKING REAL I have been in situations so similar to this and if he comes out now I will never forgive Alice because this is a horrific time for this.

I am uncomfortable with the energy we have created in the studio today.

Oh Tao I love you I’m so sorry. God he is so me. God what a nice hug. I feel so bad for him. Holy fuck.

And CHARLIE god this is my nightmare.

Oh Nick too.

EVERYONE IS SAD AND I AM SAD.

Oh baby oh my god.

Charlie is a literal angel AND SO IS NICK’S MOM.

YOU DON’T OWE THEM ANYTHING. THAT IS A BEAUTIFUL FUCKING MESSAGE.

Oh Charlie my heart aches for you.

Episode 4

Charlie why wouldn’t you sit next to each other???? Charlie???? What is this madness?????

Tao’s hair is slaying.

Mr. Farouk is crazy.

Paris is gonna fix everything I see.

Okay Nick and Tao getting together makes my heart absolutely so full.

NICK’S DAD IS FRENCH??????? Bro I need to read these don’t I?

Aw Mr. Farouk’s little smile.

Darcy is fantastic at changing the subject I wish I had the skill.

Bro Ben’s whole role this season is glaring I’m pissing myself giggling about it.

Bro read the ROOM of COURSE they wanted to share.

Um why is their room so tiny????

Even their hands look perfect together god DAMN.

WAIT Tao that was so fucking sweet.

NO THIS IS THE HICKEY SCENE. THIS IS THE HICKEY SCENE. OH MY GOD IS THIS THE HICKEY SCENE?

Incredible like delivery Kizzy FUCK I loved that.

Also it was not the hickey scene.

Ben looks so unenthused with Imogen at all times and I’m pissed about it.

Jesus that was rude Ben. Fuck you.

This is so weird but I wanna know what order they shot these scenes in bc the whole bus scene Farouk kept being all smiley towards Ajayi but now he’s like super unimpressed with him and it’s not tracking but honestly that’s kind of sweet and almost like foreshadowing I love it.

Tao. Looks. So. Good.

ELLE’S BOOTS ARE FIRE ARE YOU SERIOUS?????

Charlie just grab his hand there’s literally no one around.

NICK BEING FLUENT IN FRENCH IS SO GOOD AND IMPRESSIVE DOES CHARLIE KNOW?????

Also Kit Connor speaking French is just ahhhhhh

TARA’S A DANCER??? ME TOO. ME TOO ME TOO ME TOO.

Darcy is so my girlfriend. Don’t worry Tara she’ll come around I promise. My girlfriend didn’t say I love you back to me for months babe. It’s just hard for some people.

Charlie…

God Paris is beautiful.

Straight people are so goofy thinking relationships mean you stop being friends.

BRO THIS SONG GOES CRAZY????

Okay the yelling was so funny.

They’re perfect together for real.

The BUTTERFLIES???? THE BUTTERFLIES????

I actually love Imogen so much. Ben needs to get his greasy hands off her fr.

Darcy’s non-binary shirt is everything. Thank you Heartstopper, thank you Kizzy.

WHY IS CHARLIE BY BEN???? WHO ALLOWED THIS?????

NO. NO NO NO. NO.

Okay. Deadass, I wish I had recorded myself—The whole conversation just went down, and I sat there with my hand shaking around my face, and when HARRY went “There’s no reason to call her a bitch” I fucking LOST MY MIND because you know it’s bad when HARRY SAYS SOMETHING OBJECTIVELY CORRECT. I deadass SCREAMED.

Oh Imogen so wrong but also so cute about it anyway.

Tao and Nick talking makes my heart so happy I want them to be besties.

This is so sweet. Fuck.

Is Nick’s dad a factor here? Because I’m stressed.

I love when my gf hugs me like that.

“Giant Rugby idiot”

Wait this is wild oh my god?????

Real talk—when my gf gets that close to me and is kissing my neck I do not silently stare at the ceiling but I get it we’re innocent and sweet in this house.

Bro the hickey reveal is SO GOOD.

Episode 5

Oh his dad is ghosting him fuck.

Soundtrack going off again

Also unrealistic—giving a hickey without knowing how? You have to suck SO HARD bro—

I’m fully laughing my ass off.

TAO’S EYES I—

I just screamed “OH MY GOD THIS SHOT IS INCREDIBLE THIS IS ART” at the top of my lungs and the neighbors definitely heard but BLURRY BEN SITTING IN BETWEEN MATCHING NICK AND CHARLIE WHEN HE LEARNS ABOUT THE HICKY???? 10/10 cinema. Give it an Oscar right now.

That’s the biggest croissant I have ever seen.

BEN BLURRY IN THE BACKGROUND OF THESE SHOTS IS JUST SO—

Joe Locke is gorgeous I can’t. He’s like literally a sculpture.

SHUT UP HARRY.

Oh my fucking god.

“I don’t give a rats ass rudeboy, grow up” is the single greatest like in all of Heartstopper and I will tattoo it on my body.

What is Nick’s outfit? Why do they keep giving him ridiculous pants?

Tao and Elle are a fucking gorgeous couple.

GO OFF ISAAC. GO OFF.

Kizzy and Corinna are just ah just god just I want them both just AH.

THAT FRAME OF BEN AND NICK IS FUNNIER THAN THE ONE THAT WENT VIRAL.

I hate Ben. I am going to cry.

I’m scared Charlie’s going to pass out. Imagine he just falls off the tower lmao what a twist one of them literally dies 😭😭

HARRY! HARRY! HARRY! Good job Isaac.

Okay he JUST called are you serious?

Tao’s fits are fucking fire bro.

SO ARE YOU CHARLIE. SO ARE YOU.

Doing a friend lock instead of a boyfriend one is so real.

I’m really freaked about the end of the season. I feel like I know the storm that’s coming and I don’t know if I can take it.

Nick being able to talk to anyone about everything is the best trope of this entire show. He is truly a saint (Santa Claus type beat lmfao)

No Charlie eat please. I’m begging you. You deserve love and food. I love him. I love this show.

Kizzy is so handsome.

Things are falling apart. I am falling apart. This is bad. This is real bad.

HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO ENJOY ELLE AND TAO WHEN I KNOW WHAT IS HAPPENING ELSEWHERE???????

Yeah okay I’m enjoying it I LOVE THEM!!!!

THE BUTTERFLIES.

Beautiful artist couple.

I wanna understand. He wants. To. Understand. MY PARENTS DIDN’T EVEN— AHHHAGDJAHANDHEJAB he’s a saint.

Nick is about to make me uncontrollably sob.

He was so close to I love you fr.

I hate Nick’s outfit so much.

Charlie finding out he speaks French has me KICKING MY FUCKING FEET AND GIGGLING.

Gets in trouble, “Run!” *runs towards the person getting them in trouble*

They look so genuinely perfect together it’s insane. The casting for this shit is fucking crazy.

Goated soundtrack.

Why does Nick have to be dressed like this though like I get it but I completely do not get it.

I’m uncomfy.

Oh god. He doesn’t know me. This is getting way, WAY to real now.

I just belly laughed at Tao sheepishly shuffling out of the bathroom and going, “I have something to share.”

Okay this is adorable I wish I had friends in high school (or ever)

WAIT OH MY GOD—I was upset they got busted by I AM NOT EVEN REMOTELY UPSET ANYMORE.

This is fucking perfect.

This show does not fail to save me. It saved me with the first season and it’s saving me a second time now.

Isaac in the bookstore is so me.

Oh yes YES YES YES!

The pride street. I’m fucking sobbing.

The hand shot?!?!? THE HAND SHOT?!?!

I really need Tara and Darcy to talk.

Oh no this is not what I want I really do not want this I really don’t like that there is alc here in this situation.

Ben is here??? What???

Everyone and their brother has a crush on Charlie and like I totally get it but also he is so OBLIVIOUS.

LUCY DACUS???? FUUUUUUUUUUCK.

Also the ace/aro representation is so good I fuckin love you Isaac.

“No.”

Okay let me be so real, Harry is an ass but Ben assaulted Charlie and he gets to be here???? Like not that I want Harry to be around either but????? Like?????

WHO INVITED BEN?!?!?

TAO’S SCARY ASS CRAWL I CAN’T—

YES. YES NICK. FUCK IM CRASHING.

Darcy why tho.

They are such good actors it’s so hard to remember they aren’t actually in love.

Not to be delulu but they are so Merlin/Arthur core.

I thought they were about to have an “oh shit I’m about to get turned on” moment but it didn’t go that way.

ONE BED TROPE. YASSSSSS. YASSSS. GAY TEACHERS. YASSSS.

This is fucking RAW. Oh my GOD. God, Charlie that was fucking powerful and perfect. Me too. I feel it. I felt you. AND HE STEPPED AWAY FROM THE RAINBOW HE COULD HAVE GONE IN AND SEEN.

BANGING MY HEAD AGAINSST A WALL.

In conclusion, I will be getting a heartstopper tattoo at my nearest convenience. I’ll be sure to post it.

Also, here’s a cookie for lasting this long 🍪

[nikosasaki]

❛ close your eyes and hold out your hands. ❜ + magpie and ricky my best friends

did anybody say magpie & ricky post-documentary friendship? yeah. I did. I said that.

Magpie Prescott & Ricky Bowen

wordcount; 628 (I got busy so short but sweet)

"Do you want to see something cool?"

Magpie was sitting parallel to Ricky, lying flat on the roof tiles as she studied the clouds above her with a rather intense frown on her face.

"The last time you tried to show me something cool I thought we were about to be murdered by a vengeful camp ghost," she helpfully reminded him.

"So…" Ricky slowly spoke, turning to look at Magpie. "Is that a no?"

"Well, no. Now I'm too curious."

Things had been weird the past few months, and not just because their friend group had been torn apart by an evil documentary maker (which still didn't sound like a real scenario to Ricky, even if he had lived it.) Ever since he arrived at camp he'd noticed a change in Magpie. She'd been nicer to him, which wasn't an unwelcome change of pace, but it was cause for concern.

Of course, when Ricky saw EJ and Gina flirting, everything fell into place for him.

While Ricky might have never been the best with emotions—expressing them or reacting to them—he liked to think he knew how to be a good friend, which is what he'd been attempting to do. He would sit with Magpie during breakfast and lunch, and go out of his way to check how she was doing throughout the day.

To everyone's surprise, Magpie seemed receptive to it.

Which is exactly how they ended up on the roof of Ricky's house, staring at the clouds and talking about nothing in particular. Especially not about EJ, or the documentary, or anything that happened at camp for that matter. Instead, they talked about movies, skateboarding, and college. Everything else was left unsaid.

"Okay, hang on," Ricky scrambled up from the roof and headed back to his window, leaving Magpie for a moment to rummage through his room. Really, he'd been meaning to give this to Magpie ever since he found it, but after the mayhem from the documentary life had seemed to flash both of them by, and he'd never gotten around to it.

Ever since it all happened Ricky hadn't had a quiet moment to himself, and he knew Magpie was off even worse. He hadn't seen her truly smile in weeks, so he had to pull out the big guns.

"Okay," Ricky announced as he crawled back through the window, the object behind his back. "Now, close your eyes and hold out your hands."

"What?" Ricky froze mid-crawl as Magpie sat up, cross-legged, frown now directed at him. "I'm not doing that, Richard."

"Please?" He attempted, giving Magpie the sweetest smile he could muster up. "I promise it'll be worth it."

"Fine," Magpie let out the heaviest sigh she possibly could, waving her hands forward in a dramatic motion. "If you're going to cut off my hands, I'll be really disappointed."

Ricky—choosing to ignore the comment—smiled wide and pressed his gift into Magpie's cupped hands. Almost immediately, she opened her eyes up again. Ricky registered a good second of complete silence before Magpie gasped, jumping up on her knees and pulling the gift close to her face.

"Holy shit, Richard!" In her hands, Magpie held an old camera that Ricky's dad had intended to throw away. Ricky had never been too interested in cameras, but he had paid a bit of attention to Magpie over the summer as she lectured him on the magic of Super8 film cameras.

"Is this for me?" Magpie asked with wide, eager eyes, and how could Ricky be expected to do anything but nod to that? "Oh my god! Do you even know what you just gave me?"

Ricky didn't, really, but it was clearly something good. It made Magpie smile. That's all that really mattered to him.
