Anonymous Kiddo Asked: IS THERE GOING TO BE AN COOKIE ANYWHERE ON THE WEBSITE? I THINK IT WOULD BE FUNNY IF THERES JUUST A RANDOM COOKIE ON THE SITE AND WHEN YOU CLICK IT IT MAKES A crunch NOISE

should i put a cookie on it…? i’m so weak to silly little suggestions like this. i think i might put a cookie on it.

[okjii]

the biggest draw of andreil to me will forever be that they’re just Unstoppable Force mets Immovable Object incarnate in which they actually DO affect each other while simultaneously keeping the core parts of themselves and i just cant think of anything better

something something being dragged to a bar by your friends for one of their birthday’s or something and being content enough to sit at the bar and read/write/whatever solitary thing while they go off to do their own thing

but you can feel someone sit next to you and when you turn to look he has the most piercing blue eyes and oddest hair cut you’ve ever seen but— if someone forced you to admit it, you’d say he’s cute at least.

anyway johnny of course tries to woo you and take you home with him that night but you cut him and his attempts off with a good natured laugh,

“heh, i’m sorry, but i only sleep with my husband. i don’t do romantic flings.”

“but ye don’ ‘ave a ring?”

“mhm, i’m not married yet.”

“yer single?”

“that’s right.”

and now he’s even more determined to get you home and covet you all to himself, for someone so sweet can’t possibly be adored by anyone else but him.

(it’s a problem when his task force’s eyes start to wander to you, though.)

Peter Parker who feels like he breaks everything he touches. A curse to everyone and anyone around him just by existing. His parents, Ben, and the lingering threat of losing May, MJ, and Ned. Even when he tries to do a little good as Spider-Man, he still manages to crash and burn…

vs.

Tony Stark who is determined to fix anything and everything. That’s what he does, it’s what he was born to do. He’s a mechanic and inventor. And god damn it, he couldn’t care less if Peter break things because he’ll fix it. It’s his purpose afterall and if Peter somehow manages to get tangled up in it and he has to start carrying around a fire extinguisher— Well, maybe that’s not so bad.

People who claim Willow and Xander are bad friends are half right, but they also ignore the crucial part of their characters, which is that they. do. not. leave. And it’s because they do not budge that there are no two better friends for Buffy ‘abandonment issues’ Summers.

I definitely want to talk about this more, but I just think it is so important that Buffy, who is terrified of everyone leaving her, is surrounded by two idiots who refuse to leave the horror movie even when they really really should.

Like yeah, Cordy, Oz and Giles objectively have Buffy’s back more often - but they all leave!!! Even if it is for a perfectly valid reason (Cordy and Oz), Willow and Xander would never dream of jumping ship. At their core they’re still the first people who see Buffy and decide, actually, she doesn’t have to be alone, and she won’t be alone. And that is so important!!!

They cling to Buffy like a limpet because they centre their identities around her. And like okay, unhealthy much, but Buffy was ridiculously lucky to find these two immediately, bc no sane person is staying for 7 years in constant life or death situations. Not even Giles. Who, btw, is getting paid.

It makes it kind of hilarious that Buffy is so scared of her friends leaving her that she didn’t consider that they wouldn’t let her leave. Codependency so strong not even dying gets her out of it.

I feel like we don't collectively appreciate enough that Harrow is TINY. Like it's common for necromancers to be malnourished, on the shorter side, unhealthily underweight, but Harrow is tiny even by all necro standards.

She struggles with the depth of the water in the pool scene. Lots of characters carry her or Nona around like it's nothing. In Pal's River bubble, maybe things worked different, but his seemed especially rigid about realistic rules imposed, and even he was able to lift her easily off the ground. Joli at first insisted that Nona couldn't be more that 14 at most. Hot Sauce is 14, yet some of the kids held up before the broadcast look "older than Hot Sauce" and "a lot older than Nona". When they need to Harrow up Nona, they get black clothes off the smallest Blood of Eden member they can find and still have to tailor those down to fit her. There is no way this woman is even 5 feet tall.

As someone who is also pretty small and has always been mistaken for much younger than I am, I love and appreciate this very much.

But also...

The main thing people seem to point to for Tall Alecto is lifting Harrow up in the NtN epilogue, but even ignoring that Harrow's body was literally falling apart 10 seconds before, I offer for consideration: Imagine if Alecto is like 155cm / 5'1", she just still needed to lift Harrow's face because Harrow's like 145cm / 4'9". Gideon all "Get in line, thou big slut" and the Big Slut barely comes up to her shoulder (yet could casually toss her through a wall).

no but do you understand that killing gihun would've been the easiest thing in the world for inho to do. the smarter play. like he was right there, weaponless, defenseless, vulnerable and yet, he didn't do it. he didn't shoot him, maim or injure him in any physical way.

gihun, this idealist on a revenge mission, who thinks the world is made of compassionate people. gihun who thinks the system will crumble under the power of the people, who's trying to end the games so to kill this power the rich have over the poor, to give people their lives back. gihun, who at every moment in these games has pushed for the better of the collective, even ensuring his own demise by caring for inho (though, not knowing who he is). gihun, who won an incredible amount of money and could easily live a comfortable life away from these games, who turned his back on that idea because he wants to save people, to collapse the system, to be a hero. it would've been so easy to kill him right then and there. but inho doesn't. and i think that's so so interesting.

yes, it's more painful to kill his friend, and that's the obvious first reason. but under that there's also the obvious 'consequences for your actions' reason. but under even that, i think inho genuinely didn't want to. i think, in his experience of the games, getting to see gihun's good nature, getting to experience his compassion first hand, i think inho saw something in him. be it absolute insanity, or a futile chase of a hopeless dream or a level of tenacious he sees in himself.

if nothing, gihun persists. he spent two years trying to find the recruiter, every round he tries to convince people to quit, his drive to succeed knows no bounds, sees no obstacles. and the same can be said for inho. the games must persist, his work must be complete, nothing will stop him, not even an uprising from some nobodies. in this, maybe inho sees them as the same. not necessarily equals because i do think he still sees gihun as below him but, but. they're not opposites, they're not equals but a secret, third, worse thing. theyre reflections in a cracked mirror, broken in all the wrong places. they're the unstoppable force and the immovable object. inho can't kill gihun because then it would be over. their back and forth, their battle of ideals, their sparring match, their little game. it would all be over. and inho can't have that. because if he killed gihun in that moment then inho wouldn't win the game.
