fuck it here's some damerina angst hope y'all enjoy!!
Marina stares at the clock on Dame’s bedside drawer, the numbers reading 1:00 AM glaring at him in the dark. He’s been here for a week, he should be used to the timezone change. He IS used to the timezone change, but something’s keeping him up tonight.
Meeting Dame’s family was…ok. They were good people and it was plain to see that Dame loved them. Marina was briefed on who’s who and the recent news about the family on the ride to Dame’s family home. He was so excited to meet his boyfriend’s family and made sure to be on his best behavior, determined to make a good first impression.
He’s not sure what he did wrong, or if he even did anything wrong in the first place. He knew coming in that French people wouldn’t be as hospitable as Filipinos are or be completely welcoming and accepting of foreigners. But something about how they acted towards him, something in how they looked at him stung. Something in how they talked to him through Dame, or how they responded to his compliments with tight-lipped smiles.
Marina blinks back tears that he didn’t even know were coming, using the blanket to wipe most of it away. He tries to rationalize their behavior towards him, tries to come up with reasons that fall completely flat. The truth is, he knows why that is. He’s completely aware of the real reason why they acted like that but he tries to push it back down, tries to see the best in them.
But it’s no use, and the tears flow and he sobs into his pillow. He should have expected it, should have expected that what happened was going to happen. But Dame….his sweetheart, his love. He truly wanted to meet the people that raised such a kind, sweet, silly man. He wanted to meet the people that made such a good man and see if they were too. And they were, for the most part.
They really were such kind and sweet people, just not to him. Not to somebody like him. More and more tears flow and he has to bite his fist to quiet himself, to keep Dame in his restful slumber. As much as he wants Dame to console him, to soothe him, he knows he has to deal with his sorrow himself.
So he decides to fall asleep, as difficult as it is. He hides his tear-stained face in the covers and lets sleep take him.

how typical is cate blanchett's accent
she has "rich lady cultivated australian transplant" accent. its when australian celebrities move/work overseas for so long that their accent becomes very neutral but crisp (kind of like how our news anchors sound) with an american/british lilt in some cases. same with chris hemsworth, hugh jackman, toni collette, etc. even when cate blanchett speaks in interviews, i cant really tell what part of the mainland shes from (with chris hemsworth i can tell it used to be more broad/northern, but with cate i really cant get a beat on it)

agatha agate has a little spot on the top of her head where her fur is white and it’s very thin and the pink of her skin is a little bit visible all the time. turns out she can get sunburnt there
so now she has this stupid hat.

We're not appreciating the Weird Barbie enough. It's said in the movie that she helps everyone who need help while they always see her as someone who's not as good as them. She was friends with all dismissed Barbies and Kens, was there to offer support and safe shelter for everyone who needed it in Kendom, without her nothing in the movie would've been alright. When Stereotypical Barbie calls her "ugly and unwanted" she still helps her.
She was representing a woman in women's world who was pushed aside by other women because she didn't fit in but still had more wisdom and kindness than everyone who thought they're better than her.
