because obviously the doctor is about to blame donna for spilling the coffee, but he catches himself, backs off and apologizes. and it's not him catching himself in a "this is a pointless argument because i'm right and you aren't getting that so i give up" sorta way- because in that beat after, he isn't irritated, he doesn't start trying to figure out a way to reiterate his point. it's him catching himself in a "that was the wrong thing to say and i regret that" sorta way.
it's him catching himself becoming another one of the voices in donna's head calling her a screw up.
hey fallen, what moment lives rent free in your brain? thanks for asking, i'll tell you!
we see very clearly that the collector doesn't see grimwalkers as people, this is expected, at this point I don't know if they see anyone as people.
but what i find fascinating is how Belos sees the grimwalkers. i'd always kinda assumed he didn't see them as people either (something something dehumanization and cycles of abuse and making so many he eventually stops caring about them even in his own, twisted way), but that isn't exactly true.
the collector calls them "those things".
Belos calls them "him".
in a way, i wasn't wrong. Belos doesn't see them as people, he sees them as a person. specifically, Caleb.
Belos has seen every single grimwalker as an extension of Caleb, not as their own people with individual thoughts and ideas and personalities.
FitMC why are you instinctively speaking Portuguese to Shane . 🤨 That's kind of random don't you think. Surely he doesn't remind you of anyone . Surely
Just read ch 828 of the novel, and I have. SO many thought about chung mun and chung myung.
In this chapter Chung Mun gives Chung Myung the whole talk about how he can't do everything by himself. As we know, Chung Myung doesn't put this into practice until his second life, as the divine dragon.
Do you think Chung Mun ever blamed himself? In his last moments on that mountain range, do you think he blamed himself, or even the world, for leaving everything to Chung Myung? Do you think that as he laid there, bleeding out, he wished for nothing more than to be strong enough to support the boy he had raised? To stand beside him in his final moments, to comfort him, to tell him that it wasn't his fault?
Chung Mun raised Chung Myung into the man he is. His teachings helping Chung Myung, and in turn Mount Hua, years after he died. But sometimes I wonder what he was thinking about, laying on that blood soaked ground, as he watched his son go against that monster.
i want to do a rewatch of some mcu movies but i worry that i am at risk of remembering how fundamentally aggressively incurious those movies were abt everything & anything that happened in them and it will make me temporarily insane
*head in my hands* Kelvin said to his face that the rocking chair was stupid just to hurt him (because he was hurt) when Keefe probably spent hours on it and did it all for him and even put his NAME on it even though in the precedent scene at the carpentry Kelvin told him all about how Taryn perfectly replaced him and was so looooved by everyone and no one missed Keefe (BITCH YOU MISS KEEFE AND EVERYBODY KNOWS IT EXCEPT KEEFE WHICH IS THE PROBLEM) and this basically just confirmed to Keefe that he isn't needed but he still loves Kelvin so much and he was just desperate to show him what he could still do for him as a carpenter (because he failed him as an assistant youth pastor) and made him a fucking rocking chair and Kelvin said it was STUPID
For the last two days since it's announcement, everyone and their nan has been going on about this godsend of a game and ofc, for good reason. It looks gorgeous but something that I found quite interesting when watching and rewatching the trailer abt 1500 times is regarding the desgn of the hunter themself.

You don't really a lot of them compared to the bird dog thing they're riding around on but from what you can see, you could probably speculate a couple things about the context of the Wilds.
Compared to previous games, the Hunter takes on a more modern and generally more stylish appearance (kinda like the Pukei MR sets but less bloodborne and more modern streetwear) with a hood over what looks to be a cap (which you could prbly find someone wearing out in the street after a good 10 mins of going out) alongside the style of the slinger. As said many times before by many others, its design is much sleeker compared to the slingers in World, which are so large and noticeable that they even change in design with certain armour sets. Perhaps this game is set so far in the future after the events of World that the Commission improved their tech and modernised.
It sucks bc we're not even getting any answers next summer if Capcom's kind enough to tell us what we wanna know...
This only raises more questions. If this comes after World, are there now developed towns in place of Astera and Seliana that we can use as home bases? How will the multiplayer work? In such a seemingly open space, are they gonna run it like a souls-like with checkpoints to invite friends? Does the slinger have even more functions given the improvements in design? Is there gonna be completely new tech that we'll be able to use on the field in place of a handler (bc according to lore she actually mattered) and researchers etc? Automated data collection??? Are we giving the hunter a phone??? Is cat slavery still a thing????
I know I'm pulling shit from out my ass but if I manage to be completely incorrect with every single one of these claims when the game comes out in 2025, I will bury myself Gaisma-girlfailure style and never come out...
