Did anything new happen with the ghost that’s haunting you?
Nothing yet, but I did ask it very politely to haunt my dad instead, and he’s been complaining about feeling something try and mess with his AirPods while they’re in, so idk
lil art dump of these three. silly goofballs who end up all dating <3 they find comfort in their strandedness in a place god knows where. one day i’ll tell their story cohesively…. some day…
Actually I finally figured out what all the hubbub over crab day really reminds me of.
Remember back in the pre-dashcon, superwholock days, when people on tumblr would make posts that were like:
“Guys, we HAVE to watch this mediocre show!! If the creators see how big of a gay audience there is, then they’ll HAVE to write real gay characters instead of constantly queerbaiting us! And if it doesn’t get good ratings it might get cancelled, and we’ll lose our chance at REAL representation and it’ll be all your fault!”
and this was considered legitimate praxis.
and like, back then we were all 13 and didn’t know how tv executives and real life works, so we actually did it. But a lot of y’all are in your twenties AT LEAST and are still thinking that’s how a multimillion dollar business is gonna operate
I don't think Colin has crashed his green lamborghini I think instead he has two. One for driving around to take to games (green) and one (in Richmonds away strip colours of orange) when he's "playing away" with his boyfriend. I don't think Colin is going to be outed either accidentally or deliberatly - that seems to mean for the show. I think there will be conflict if he wants to come out and his boyfriend (who works in Dubai) doesn't want to?? Not enough information to speculate.
Ooh dang I’d never thought of the connection between Michael working in Dubai and how that might negatively impact him if he came out - definite food for thought.
i don’t think jimmy’s broken his canary curse. i think it’s just been evolving, slowly, and he’s figuring out how to work with it instead of trying to fight it. hear me out:
3rd life - flower husbands. jimmy dies first. scott is 10th out in the series, the only time he places outside of the top 5
last life - the southlanders. jimmy is first out. mumbo is out next in quick succession. impulse dies shortly after. the only southlanders to make it into the top 10 are grian, who killed jimmy and mumbo (and still only ranks 7) and martyn, who left the southlanders for the shadow alliance
double life - ranchers. jimmy dies first, and takes tango out with him. tango is the one responsible for their first death, though
limited life - bad boys. joel wants to sacrifice himself for jimmy, but jimmy dies first before he can. joel still dies shortly after, and grian becomes a nosy neighbour, surviving to 6th
secret life - big dogs. jimmy dies second, but lizzie might be falling forever in the end so maybe he does die first. martyn is the first to yellow and red, and he dies 11th. the worst he’s ever placed. (also, mumbo dies only moments after jimmy again*)
real life - (do they have a name??). jimmy and ren’s groups get into a fight in the mines. jimmy is the only one who makes it out without dying at all. his allies are out of the series.
the canary curse isn’t about jimmy dying first. or at least, it isn’t really anymore. at first he was used to signify it, the canary dying first to warn everyone of danger ahead. but the canary has learned how to escape the coalmine now, and his friends are still stuck inside. they might survive if they have friends on the surface or they’re willing to betray their allies, but if it’s just been them and their canary to warn them of danger? then they’ve doomed themselves.
*mumbo might also have his own unique “killed ten seconds after jimmy by the same person/thing” curse, which is different from the general jimmy “bad luck charm” solidarity curse
