what’s your fav hozier song?

aaaa that's a super difficult choice let me think about it!!

i'll try to narrow it down to one song per album because i love them all so much:

- self titled: "angel of small death and the codeine scene"

just. ah. god.

- wasteland baby: it's gotta be "be"

- unreal unearth: def "i carrion (icarian)"

i also have such a soft spot for "nfwmb" too. just. ugh. i don't have the words to explain what these songs make me feel. i could probably list so many more!!

what's your favorite song, or songs, if you have a hard time deciding like me?? thank you so much for the ask!!!! super duper appreciate it!! xoxo 🌌🩷🩷

hi pigeon so im watching severance and thinking abt your red colour post again and I'm specifically watching the version someone cut together of just the outie scenes and then just the innie scenes. and I realised that there's colouring of different scenes even outside of the work place that fit ur theory for example marks house, being a lumon funded estate, is very modernist and in the interior is quite cold with mostly whites blues and blacks. but Devon and rickens house is super warm with dark browns and oranges and stuff, showing how theyre like. Opposite Worlds and the life of ricken and devon is so different and alien to life at lumon but also marks own haunted grief-filled life. but also in the very first episode Mark goes to the "dinner with no food" wearing a red sweater when everyone else is in very muted blues or greys which I think is interesting considering he's the most out of place in that group. so the colour theory extends to the outie life as well. AND one last thing, Irvings paintings of the elevator is to the reprogramming floor I think? I can't remember what it's called but it's interesting that that's the only thing he can remember from his innie worklife and also the painting has a distinctive little red light above the elevator door. and that's the place that Ms casey is sent when she's made a huge mistake and is being "dismissed" or something, and presumably Irving has also been sent there so it's something that happens to you when you're EXTREMELY deviant and the break room isn't enough to punish you.... and it's got a little red light as an arrow pointing downwards and idk I may be overthinking it of course but it's all so interesting to me I love this show. Sorry for the uber long ask lol

aaahh don’t apologise for the long ask, but yes all of this!!! i didn’t catch mark’s red sweater, but sooo true he is out of place. but also speaking of colours i don’t think i ever told you, and i didn’t make a post about it, but i actually gave every colour that’s prominent in the show a meaning! so we have red which is of course out of place, blue which is lumon/work (their keycards, mrs. corbel wears blue, also, as you said, mark’s house is blue and it’s provided to him by lumon), green is unity/family (i associate devon with green, the macrodata refinement floor is green, burt and irv in the plant room), white is secerance (the hallways on the severed floor), and then there’s orange and brown, which are the most interesting ones, cause i think they stand for both rebellion and subjugation, which are two opposites that go hand in hand. like, you have ms. casey’s room, which is very brown and green, and i think that’s because lumon tries to force everyone to feel at ease there, but it is mainly used as a subjugation technique. same with the paintings on the severed floor, they’re meant to manipulate/keep everyone subjugated, and they’re very brown, however the one depicting the coup also has orange elements which is where rebellion comes in. also, of course, ricken’s book is orange, and his and devon’s house is more warmly brown than ms. casey’s room. (all of this is just what i remember from my first time watching it, it could be off because it’s been a while)

now, it’s funny that you mentioned the reprogramming room, cause what i assigned with black is the unknown. irv doesn’t know why he has black paint under his fingernails and doesn’t know why there’s black ooze in his dreams, and no one knows what’s in the reprogramming room, but i had a very interesting conversation with a friend of mine (hiii tim @dykebonny we’re talking severance) who’s a big cosmic horror fan, who raised the theory that there’s something otherworldly behind that door. now, i know that’s going into theory territory and i don’t even know if i like it (it’s fun to play around with though) and that gives a whole new potential for the red light cause what is there that’s more out of place in the world than something that isn’t from this world. but like i said this is wild speculation but it’s fun to think about

anyway yeah i might actually make a proper post about all of this when i’m rewatching severance before s2 comes out, but yeah. the use of colour in this show is just fascinating

#elliot answers #hi ethan! #also i don’t think you can be overthinking this seems like the kind of show where every detail is intentional #severance

Is Elliot decently muscular and athletic to the people in the Border Camp? Does he realize this?

Absolutely yes, and absolutely no.

Elliot has two superhuman personal trainers. They are intensely motivated by his wellbeing, and he is intensely motivated by his desire to earn their affection.

... He doesn't have to do this, but he doesn't realise that. It was interesting for me to chart Elliot's development over years, both physically, mentally and emotionally. To me his outside is a mirror for his insides, as he grew more socially adept and confident and able to charm and negotiate, but still thought of himself as a social reject even while using those skills, despite the cognitive dissonance inherent. Elliot doesn't realise his deeper qualities attract people's love as he doesn't realise his surface qualities attract admiration.

Being unloved by your primary caregivers in childhood means you carry with you--despite evidence to the contrary, despite your own intelligence arguing otherwise--a deep-rooted conviction you are unlovable. And if you have a prickly personality (with that conviction, it's likely: neglect, like other forms of abuse, does not produce perfect victims) you're going to receive feedback that looks to you like more evidence to back up those beliefs, and you won't see the arguments against it. Elliot is observant as hell, but only sees a certain amount because of his blinkers.

... Also I do enjoy writing characters who are deeply oblivious, and providing the clues for my readers. Every character is a mystery in themselves! And the mystery is both tragic and comic.

To people in the Border Camp, Elliot's less impressive than on our side of the wall: they're accustomed to said superhuman personal trainers, but he is still remarkable enough to be remarked upon by their commander. That's especially significant as many of the 'humans' in the Borderlands have inhuman blood, and thus everyone's approach to 'can a human jump from a tall cliff and land unhurt' is 'that doesn't sound right, but I don't know enough about the capacities of the species to say...'

Elliot's unquestionably seen as the jock of the council course, which would disgust him if he knew. He's picked to play the homme fatale of his school play and put in revealing outfits, and the very night of the school play while still in sexy costume he sleeps with the (widely-considered) hottest girl in school. (Having already romanced the other contestant for hottest girl in school. And then goes on to hook up with the two best-looking boys. Truly a bisexual icon among the beautiful people.) Extremely fit in all senses of the word, and to those of the Border Camp being visibly athletic is especially attractive because it indicates you're more likely to survive.

To those outside the training camp, well, he gets courted by a harpy on sight ('who is that striking gentleman? I must bring him a bouquet of dead rabbits!), propositioned repeatedly by an elf, and kissed by a mermaid during their first encounter. It is fair to suspect that some of his diplomatic missions have been helped out by people responding to him with 'he's not that diplomatic but... that ass.'

To the people of our world, as Jase testifies, Elliot is clearly the product of fairly intensive athletic or military training.

I remember one post that says 'he is so tall and so ripped' and another one saying he is totally jacked and the fastest man alive.

... I endorse them both.

Is there any LGBTQ+ employees in Playtime Co? Like any gays, lesbians, transgenders or asexuals?

hi! 🌹

heyyyy ida <33 i present you a snippet of the sense8 au i may or may not write one day

Dean wasn’t surprised that Dad had needed help on this hunt. It was a haunted house, the bodies hidden behind the walls. It was multiple spirits, so it was practically impossible to go in without backup. They’d found the bodies, all of them, salted and burned them, getting out of the house quickly enough before it collapsed and was engulfed in flames. It was certainly lucky that there were no other houses too near.

Dean was staring at the carcass of it, black rubble and stray pieces of wood, from the Impala parked on the other side of the street. Dad was long gone, and Dean should be too, but there was something keeping him here. Something telling him that there was still something out there. It didn’t make any sense. Even if they’d missed a body, the remains would have burned down with the house. There was nothing left.

“Curious how you can find beauty in destruction.”

Dean was startled, his whole body turning towards the voice, the British accent so out of place that Dean knew immediately that this man didn’t actually live here. But still there he was. The dude from the plane. Sitting on the passenger seat of the Impala again. He was looking at what remained of the haunted house, the sunrise illuminating the jagged pieces.

“What the hell?” Was all Dean could bring himself to say before the man turned towards him, curiosity in his eyes, a concentrated look on his face.

“I gather this is not a dream.”

Elliot please don’t settle for Ivy’s booby trap. I hope you and MC get another shot. 👀

Hah! I see what you did there. Good one.

To be fair, I didn’t know MC was still in the villa!! I’m a loyal guy, I swear. I’d have never stared-

Er, I mean… I didn’t stare. Cos I didn’t have my glasses. Yeah. I didn’t know…

No because literally what is their issue with Gaz (we know the issue)

You have two characters who show up in passing, the entire rest of the squad, but not the character that you play as for almost half of the campaign??? It’s awful behaviour and there’s frankly no good reasoning behind it. Wish there was something to be done about it because irregardless of the amount of complaints they get, they’re not going to do anything. Calling it rn that Gaz is the next character they kill off.

Love Activision and their propaganda game they’re just so 👍

I don't even want to go there. But the fact that they leave him out as if he's a side character is actually disgusting. How is he not important? YOU PLAY HIM IN MW19 and HAVE AN AWESOME SCENE ON MW2 WHEN HE'S HANGING FROM A FUCKING ROPE. Literally the best scene in the games and you mean to tell me that he gets no skins, merch, not in promos, etc?

I have a feeling that there's a certain pattern with it. And it's not a very good one. They're not being subtle either. The thing that frustrates me even MORE is the fact that Elliot Knight KNOWS about the misuse of Gaz and Activison more than likely has taken notice to this yet do NOTHING.

I'M LEGIT SICK AND TIRED OF IT. GAZ DESERVES BETTER. And if they kill him in the next MW, I won't be fucking surprised anymore.

I saw that you did Riddler bingo and I have some questions:

1. When did Edward cry?

2. Are daddy issues still haunting him?

3. Does he have nightmares about it?

Im sorry if its werid but im kinda interested in these kinds of things.

Thank you and have a good day/ night!

1

Edward cries on multiple occasions honestly, but two of the biggest ones for him were probably he was taken away from his grandma as a little boy, and when he was fired after causing too many problems.

2

Yes, Ed is still haunted by his father. His father being abusive has lead Eddie to be very nervous of men in positions of power. Specifically above him, that is. Especially if they themselves are a father. They don't have to be to make him nervous, but it certainly adds to it.

3

Ed could certainly have nightmares, but he wouldn't remember them very well. He takes so long waking up because of his severe sleep apnea that even if he woke up stressed from a nightmare, by the time he was aware of where he was again, he wouldn't remember what scared him, just that he was scared.

He'd hate not remembering more than knowing it was about his father though.
