from dean’s perspective “i need you’ is bigger than “i love you”. love is complicated but it’s direct, he could love someone without having them in his life. but need? dean “mr. dependent, guarded walls up so high, emotionally unavailable” winchester needing someone? thats huge. to need means to give them control. to need means i cant do this without you. love comes easy to dean but to genuinely need something and be selfish enough to ask for it? that goes against everything he’s been conditioned into believing.

Im rewatching let's plays of Ruin and something that grabbed my attention was that this line, that was said by the Mimic when Roxy was "chasing" Gregory

It's said again in the "VR ending"

and if im pointing this out it's because a lot have said that since the Mimic is chasing Cassie, he is not supposed to impersonate Gregory again

But at least this ending, proves that either 1) The Mimic is still very much able to impersonate Gregory even after being discovered (which would add more fuel that the Elevator Ending was the Mimic talking) or 2) the Vanni system was so ingrained into Cassie's brain that she has started hallucinating.

two sides of the same coin

She’s afraid of being considered a monster, and acts chaotic and spunky but is actually extremely vulnerable.

When her fear takes over, she wants to destroy the monster.

She’s afraid of ever encountering a monster, and acts stoic and calm but is actually extremely vulnerable and unstable.

When her fear takes over, she wants to destroy the monster.

They’re actually more similar than we give them credit for.

While we're on the topic of Higher, I'd like to point out that it is among the few songs that Vessel directly calls himself a threat. As in, directly states that he is a danger.

There's the usual (hate to call it 'usual', but bear with me) self loathing, but then there's "I am a danger". No other song states that; it's said in others that he's a bad person, a vacuum, but none other than Higher says that he is a threat.

Just a little note for everyone that I feel needs to be said, Medusa's story in PJO follows one of the Ovid variations in which she was transformed after banging Poseidon in one of Athena's temples. That's why Medusa hesitates to go after Percy: he looks like his dad. It's stated BY ANNABETH that Medusa appears to have a soft spot for him. We will likely be seeing this in the show.

The ORIGINAL GREEK has her as a monster from birth to death, and I feel like this is incredibly important to remember that Greek mythology isn't a monolith, it's a scattered collection of stories that we only have a small percentage of because of linguistic drift and the inevitable loss of knowledge that came with time.

Edited to add: with the way they have Medusa set up so far, I think she may make Percy question his mom's thing about monsters not looking like monsters. The Medusa we got previews of doesn't look like a monster. She looks like a gorgeous woman, the kind of princess a hero might 'rescue'.

Just... food for thought.

Do you ever think about how james would've probably forgiven peter for betraying him IF it was only him that got hurt? Like if that night lily and harry were somewhere else and only james died he would've forgiven peter, he would understand that he was scared and such, put lily and harry? No. For the simly reason that that night both his wife and child died, he could never even look at peter again, he hated him.

regarding alectopause and Alecto:

one thing that I think a lot of people fail to mention abt Alecto is that Harrow and Gideon are not MADE for a “traditional happy ending”

Like, I see all this discussion abt hcs and fics with fluff and petnames and the picket fence, and it’s like… the whole point of them is that everyone in their life who has loved them has loved in some twisted, unhealthy way. Priamhark and peallemeana who made a war crime and reminded her every day of what she was; Gideon and aiglamaine where all the love she got was harsh and transactional— and then when she does find her mother, it turns out she set out to kill her, a child she didn’t even want?

Harrow and Gideon are not GOING to be all sweet and fluffy and joyful because THEY DONT KNOW HOW. Every act of love they have done for each other has caused immense pain to both of them, and when they try and fix it? Undo the pain? That’s seen as REJECTION of their love. They are not okay, and thus, that leaves the question: how do we end their story? How do you wrap up a relationship so twisted and convoluted, that they would see any act that in a TRADITIONAL ‘romance’ would be an act of love as sacrilege? I want a happy griddlehark as much as the next gal, but I just don’t think that’s in the cards for them.

#just something to think about #not saying I don’t WANT it #but just that I don’t think it makes sense character wise #think abt Camilla and palamedes #tamsyn has shown she’s more than willing to let her endings be twisted and heartbreaking and bittersweet #and I think that’s what we’re looking at with griddlehark #tlt #the locked tomb #gideon the ninth #gtn #harrowhark nonagesimus #griddlehark #gideon nav #alectopause

(this is in no way a justification of snape’s behavior toward students, specifically gryffindors)

I cant help but think that part if the reasons snape favored slytherin students so obviously had less to do with just selfishness and pettiness, but more to do with wanting slytherin students to have a teacher completely to their advantage, contrary to when he was a student and was mostly neglected by his teachers despite the severity of his bullying. I can only imagine how isolating that is, when your tormentors are hugely favored by everyone and therefore got no more than a slap on their wrist when they clearly deserved to be expelled. The marauders were so comfortable with bullying him and others to the point where sirius got away with attempted murder and james with public sexual assault. It was hugely neglectful.

Therefore, I can understand if snape immediately wanted to make it clear that he wouldn’t tolerate that behavior towards his slytherins, and most likely justified his poor behavior towards gryffindors by assuming they had more than enough support from other professors.

We know that this is unfair, and the rational response would be treat everyone how he needed to be treated as a student, but I also think its unfair to dismiss his trauma and the least we can do as readers is understand where he was coming from. We should also take into account that he was one of the few teachers who never put his students in danger as punishment or anything else, regardless of who they were and what house they were from, which is far more important than unfair reduction of points and humiliation.

If you’re watching a horror movie and you don’t sit there seriously questioning why the ever living fuck you are attracted to that disgusting, perverted, sadistic, nasty, heinous, deeply fucked up mess of a villain… Why the fuck are you still watching it?

By the way, it’s because he’s baby girl. He just is. I don’t care who he is.

I don’t know if Texas wouldn’t know Spanish or if he just stay silent and not wanting to translate or remember Spanish? Because I feel like he understands it just chooses to not comment on it.

Something to think about

Hamnet:

Led an unprovoked (technically we don't know if that is true, but let's assume) attack against the rats in the garden

Used an unfair, war crime-coded tactic to win

Killed many innocents with it

= Narratively presented in a good light, has the background of his war crime told and explained (actually going too far because it comes across as though Solovet's abuse and involvement are supposed to excuse it, which it does not. Hamnet was an adult who is responsible for his actions; your tragic backstory is tragic but it does not excuse your war crimes).

Also, not to mention, judged Gregor, a child, for an inborn talent he has, conveying that it makes him a bad person. Either way, he is supposed to be sympathetic and everyone buys it.

Sandwich:

Led an unprovoked (technically we don't know if that is true, but let's assume) attack against the diggers

Used an unfair, war crime-coded tactic to win

Killed many innocents with it

= Narratively presented in a bad light, has nothing about the background or circumstances of his war crime explained (we get like, what, one line from Vikus?), and yet that one line immediately makes him without a doubt or question a horrible, evil person and even an unreliable prophet (because your moral alignment absolutely is connected to the validity of your prophetic abilities, yes).

Also, not to mention, he is not responsible for the tragedies he's seen, and very likely only tried to help the Regalians and Gregor deal with them by trying to write his visions down and giving Gregor his sword. Either way, he's supposed to be unsympathetic and everyone buys it.
