looking very closely at the website neighborhood and here's some little things i noticed (plus some overthinking & flower symbolism):

~ the only butterflies on the "map" are the ones outside of Frank's house, and the single one outside of Eddie's.

~~ i think the flowers outside of Eddie's are either hyacinths or lavender. given that the flowers are different colors, they're probably hyacinths. which is a Fascinating choice to me, because hyacinths can symbolize regret, devotion (especially beyond death), love, forgiveness, and jealousy - depending on the flower color. Eddie has light blue, dark blue, and purple. The butterfly is landing on the purple one (sorrow, mourning, forgiveness, regret, devoted love).

~~ its also Fascinating because the myth behinds hyacinths is about the greek god Apollo and his (male) human lover, Hyacinthus. they were playing discus (metal frisbee). Apollo threw the discus too hard, and it bounced back and hit Hyacinthus, killing him. devastated, Apollo grew the hyacinth flower from Hyacinthus' spilled blood. SO THE FACT THAT EDDIE, GAY PUPPET EDDIE, HAS HYACINTH FLOWERS OUTSIDE THE POST OFFICE IS UM. INCH RESTING!

~~ (also also in the myth, Apollo wanted to rescind his immortality to join Hyacinthus in his death. and in an alternate version of the myth, Hyacinthus was technically murdered, because Zephyrus was jealous that Apollo preferred a mortal over him & purposefully blew the discus off course to strike Hyacinthus. things to think about. yes, in this whole myth metaphor im viewing Eddie as Hyacinthus and Frank as Apollo. do with this what you will)

~ All of the trees in the neighborhood are in the same general style, except for the tree outside of Sally's home, which is a pine tree. i wonder why!

~ the only buildings with second floors are Barnaby's, Frank's, Sally's, and Poppy's homes. rip the "wally falls down the stairs" memes

~ there's a teeny tiny Home in the post office display window

~ Julie's house has quite a lot of heart symbolism. like, a weird amount. an amount to the point where i now have an entire theory around what her role and arc might be. i Will talk about it with minimal prompting.

~ one of the swingset balloons has a happy face balloon with its eyes closed, which stands out to me (and fuels my julie theory)

~ the only neighbors who don't have flowers outside of their buildings are Sally, Julie (disregarding decoration), and Howdy.

~ Poppy has daffodils, which symbolize rebirth, new beginnings, resilience, and hope. however, they have a negative side of selfishness.

~ Barnaby has red, yellow, and blue tulips. red means undying love, admiration, and truth. yellow means "there's sunshine in your smile", joy, happiness, friendship - But it can also mean unrequited love or jealousy. Blue means individuality, trust, and good luck

~~ note that there's a dead/trampled white tulip. white tulips symbolize sorrow, "my condolences", apology, honor, purity, faith.

~ Frank has sunflowers, daisies, and some others, but those i think are more generic, unspecific flowers for added decoration. i couldn't find a "red flower on vine" that fits the general look of the ones on his house. now, sunflowers symbolize adoration, loyalty, longevity, happiness (also, might i add that these flowers are from another greek myth about apollo, this one where Apollo turns a jealous nymph into a sunflower for snitching on his mortal lover, which got her (the lover) killed. inch resting indeed.)

~~ also blue daisies, which i am assuming are the blue flowers outside his house, symbolize freedom, trust, loyalty, confidence, and honesty. lots of positivity surrounding Frank's house!

~ Wally has daisies. these symbolize innocence, purity, new beginnings, hope, and affection. it can also symbolize the ability to keep a secret. a fun fact i found interesting is the word daisy comes from an old english word meaning "day's eye."

~~ do i believe these flower choices were purposeful? maybe. probably. it does seem strange that there are specific, distinct flowers drawn in equally specific parts of the "map", while a couple of generic "cartoon" style flowers are sprinkled throughout

~ three green apples are growing on the tree next to Howdy's Place

~ it stands out to me that the bodega window above the fruit stands is completely blacked out. no window shine or nothing

~ Sally's "yard" is weirdly barren. everyone else's buildings (excluding Home) has several things decorating the surrounding area. all she has is a spotlight and a tree.

~ Barnaby's house having paint all over it (and a paintbrush & can next to it) is just cute to me. it makes me think that he wanted to paint like his lil' buddy Wally and just went ham with it. or it was a team effort between them<3

~ it took me a while to notice the tiny "Eddie's" painted above Post Office. it gives the vibe (to me) of him tacking on the "Eddie's" to make the office feel more like his. maybe he saw the sign "Howdy's Place" and decided to paint his name on his building to make himself feel more established and at home

~ there's something on / part of Frank's roof. i don't know what it is. if anyone has an idea please tell me its driving me insane. at first i thought it was a chimney but theres two? making an additional symmetrical structure? idk!!

~ there are only three buildings with straight up rainbows. Eddie's post office (hanging from the roof and in the window), Sally's house (the entire front), and Frank's house (butterfly on the door wreath. i almost didn't catch it, it's a sneaky one!)

#conclusion: i am definitely overthinking but being proven wrong through discovery is half of the fun #(and turning out to be either right on the money or even partially-right is the other half of the fun) #its just!!! its really strange how fitting some of the flower choices are!! #eddie has flowers that are 'from' a greek myth about tragic gay love. #barnaby has a trampled tulip that is often used as a sympathy funeral flower. along with all of his other character references to death #frank has one of the few flowers other than hyacinths that directly links to a greek myth where apollo's mortal lover dies tragically #(which is just a weird coincidence if you ask me. the canon lovers both having greek myth apollo based tragic love flowers) #wally has flowers that symbolize keeping secrets and whos etymology is literally 'days eye'. him. the eye contact connoisseur #who's from something that puts emphasis on daytime while spurning night as something forbidden #ITS JUST!!!! WHY DOES IT FIT SO WELL!!!! #either these are some craaaaazy coinkydinks or this was Purposeful. #my flower-symbolism loving ass is chewing on this like a rabid dog #welcome home #welcome home puppet show #welcome home speculation

Astarion’s reaction to Tav suggesting he might be aging has been rattling around in my head, and it’s got me thinking angsty little thoughts about how cruelly he might’ve been to a human lover in the past. Relationships between elves and shorter lived races require so much compassion and maturity and Astarion...doesn’t have any of that. He was the sort to become smitten with a beautiful young human and let the relationship drag on for far far too long. Oh he would say sweet things in their  ear during party’s and spend a small fortune on jewels that would compliment their skin and the season, but the doting was purely selfish. Astarion wanted a blushing beauty on his arm the same way he wanted an ermine coat. It was nice to own but it was even nicer to drink up the envy of everyone who did not.

And he drank deep for as long as he could, but his human’s beauty withered away little by little. They poured decades worth of their heart into him only to see Astarion’s lips curl in disgust when the lines around their eyes crinkle. To the human he was their whole world, but a few decades is hardly a fling to a high elf. Really he was a saint staying with them until their 40th nameday...or just about...but it was well past time for a change. He wouldn’t keep roses in his foyer after they’d begun to rot so why would he use less discernment with his choice in bedfellows. There were tears, of course, accompanying insults and accusations of being a heartless curr. It might’ve moved him if the face those tears sprang from wasn’t so unpleasant, but instead he just shooed them from the estate and busied himself with preparations to meet his next potential paramour later that evening.  ... He never made it.  Cazador practically had to scrape him off the cobblestone to force the blood down his throat. Afterwards, the idea of being loved...of being looked at with kindness becomes laughable. Now his lot in life is doing his master’s bidding and hoping he’ll be allowed to suck rotten ichor from vermin. Through all the torment his face remains untouched by the centuries. 

#okay and now imagine Tav is the reincarnation of the lover he spurned #The Forgotten realms has too many versions of the afterlife for me to keep up with sometimes #but im pretty sure a soul can be reborn #please i just want poetic karmic lovers for Tav and Astarion #astarion #bg3 #bg3 fic #some gendy nutch rambles for the crew

Just heard the song again for the millionth time, and I think there is an argument that the lyrics are actually Izzy to Ed:

What's it gonna be

Baby, baby, baby

Is it him or is it me?

Baby, baby, baby

Can't you stay with me tonight?

Oh baby, baby, baby

Don't my kisses please you right? Sounds like the spurned lover to me

The beautiful ones, they hurt you everytime

The beautiful ones

Always smash the picture

Always, everytime

If I told you baby

That I was in love with you (Neither Stede or Ed have done this...Izzy has)

Oh baby, baby, baby

If we got married

Would that be cool? I am sure he wishes. Also kind of a last ditch effort, when you are losing your lover to someone new.

You make me so confused

The beautiful ones

You'll always seem to lose ( He knows he lost him, he knows it's over)

Baby, baby

Baby, baby

What's it gonna be, baby?

Do you want him?

Or do you want me?

'Cause I want you

Said, I want you

I REST MY CASE

trying and failing to think of a way to phrase a post about it. a police officer murdered a gay couple in australia with his police issued firearm. he turned himself in but is apparently refusing to cooperate with the search for their bodies. the couple were jesse baird and luke davies. if you could keep them in your thoughts

#et cetera #the officer was an ex partner of jesse i just really hope the story around this doesnt turn into #it being about some spurned ex lover rather than the focus on a cop using his access to weapons that are #much more restricted in aus to murder a couple. #ask to tag

"JAILED SIX MONTHS FOR KICKING WOMAN," Toronto Star. September 29, 1943. Page 34. ---- Complainant Alleges James Thompson Threatened to Kill Her ---- WAS IN HOSPITAL ---- "C" Police Court, at the City Hall, Magistrate Pritchard "I take a serious view of your actions in assaulting the young woman in this case. She was in hospital for some time and the evidence shows you kicked her, blackened both her eyes and inflicted other injuries. You will go to jail for six months," Magistrate Pritchard told James Thompson, convicted last week of assaulting Joyce Van Every.

Complainant told the court last week that accused had struck her about the face and head, knocking her down and then kicked her. He had also choked her and threatened he would kill her because she refused to go out with him, she said.

TALKING COSTS $50 --- "A" Police Court, City Hall-Magistrate Woodliffe. "Although you are a Canadian citizen, you have taken the German line with the intent of spreading defeatist propaganda among housewives for whom you worked." said Magistrate Woodliffe in A court, as he fined Edvard Lawerenz $50 and costs or 30 days for making statements prejudicial to the state and the efficient prosecution of the war.

John Robinette, special crown counsel, said the authorities did not regard the accused as a dangerous person.

"He was very foolish in making these statements," said E. J. Murphy, defence counsel.

"There is not sufficient evidence to convince me accused took the coal," said his worship in dismissing a charge against Edward Hobson, up for judgment.

At a previous hearing Hobson was charged with stealing a quantity of coal from the Belle Ewart Ice and Coal Co. The charge was laid following a complaint by Miss G. Greene, of Pearson Ave., to whom a load of coal was delivered on July 30.

ACCUSED OF FRAUD --- "B" Police Court, City Hall: Magistrate Browne. Facing two charges of fraud and a theft count, Aaron Sulman, a member of the R.C.A.F., was remanded to Oct. 6, with bail of $1,000 granted.

Appearing for sentence, on a charge of theft of some tin from his employers. Milton Storms, whom Crown Counsel F. I. Malone stated had been in trouble in 1940, was sentenced to two months in jail, to date from the time of his arrest.

Wilbert Stewart and Martin Cascone, charged with breaking into the garage of Dan Wintonek, Royce Ave., and stealing 14 tires and two batteries, and a second count of receiving stolen tires and batteries, elected trial by a higher court. They were committed for trial.

Wintonek identified nine new and two used tires produced by the crown, as his property from several numbers on the tires. Detective Lister Sullivan testified he had gone to Stewart's home where he had found the tires. Witness said Cascone had been later arrested at his home and had made a statement which he refused to sign and denied breaking into the premises from which the tires were stolen.

MOTORIST FREED --- "D" Police Court, City Hall, Magistrate Tinker.

"A truck came from behind me when I was on the sidewalk and hit me. That's all I knew." Ruth McDonald stated in the case of James Melross, who was found not guilty on a charge of dangerous driving.

Witness stated she was walking on Dundas St.

Robert Ongler said he saw one injured woman running, bent over, from the accident, and Mrs. Mae Peterman, "lying on the sidewalk with her head in a doorway. The truck had mounted the curb," he added.

Dr. W. A. Burr said he performed an autopsy on the body of Mrs. Peterman and found a fractured skull among other injuries. The accident occurred June 28.

"There was no liquor in this case," said P.C. James Titmarsh, "and the man was very frank. He had brake fluid put in earlier in the day, but found later the foot brake was not working as it should."

"I am not satisfied there is any evidence of dangerous or careless driving in this case," said Magistrate Tinker, not calling on the defence.

A charge of careless driving was dismissed.

Hi! Following up to say that i didn’t mean anything by the war captive comment! It just sounded like you wanted to finish the series before jumping into something like that so I was trying to support that idea. I 100% want you to write that and every other idea that has been thrown out.

You don’t have to respond to this, just wanted you to know I wasn’t trying to send negative vibes, sorry if it came across that way!!

You gave me bisexual cadre. I could never be upset with you

#ive met gavriel lorcan and rowan #and i definitely think rowan and lorcan have fucked #lorcan is giving jealous spurned lover all through queen of shadows #and idk aedion gives me slutty bi vibes so why not his papa too??

To add on, I still think it would be possible and compelling for Sebastyan to be the hooded figure even if it’s somewhat predictable. As of last week, my theory is that Sebastyan and Juliana were dating, possibly in secret, and maybe colluding to restructure the monarchy (along with Eveline) before her courtship with Trystan. Only after Juliana and Trystan started having real feelings for each other did she break it off with Sebastyan, who could never truly let go of her or their original idea of change. That would explain Juliana’s letter (which I initially thought was using coded language but may have been meant to be taken both literally and figuratively) and his resentment toward Trystan.

Then again though, it’s probably more likely that Vasili is the one in this whole position because he would be next in line after Trystan. So he benefits the most from all this. But idk I kind of like the idea of it being Sebastyan for some reason

#choices CoP #choices crimes of passion #choices #choices stories you play #playchoices #I think it’s because I feel it would really tie into the ‘crimes of passion’ thing #like yeah he killed her bc he was carrying out his mom’s wishes #but he also killed her bc he was her spurned former lover and he hates his brother #and that’s why he’s so angry all the time lol #I would also love to be able to say that I called it from the beginning lmao #but that would just be a bonus #if Sebastyan actually does turn out to be the murderer tho that would be too bad bc he’s really fucking hot #choices app
