Husk: “Is this about Vaggie giggling over a fucking potato earlier-”
Charlie: “OH IT’S ABOUT THE POTATO ALL RIGHT! WHY THE FUCK DOES THE PHRASE ‘apple of my eye’ EVEN EXIST IN THE SAME UNIVERSE WHERE ‘earth apple’ IS ANOTHER WORD FOR POTATO??? WHY DO PEOPLE CALL THE STUPID SPROUTY THINGS ON POTATOES ‘eyes’????? CREATION IS STUPID! IT DOESN’T MAKE SENSE!!”
Husk: “Did you fucking give her the potato.”
Charlie: (slumping) “I was trying to be romantic-!”
Husk: “Did you call HER your potato.”
Charlie: “THE POTATO OF MY HEART! The tuber of my root sprout!”
Husk: “Oh fuck. Shit, that’s. That’s terrible. You really shouldn’t fucking talk to women anymore.”
Charlie: (sobbing) “I WAS TRYING!!! TO BE SWEET!!!!!”

on Scott and Xavier.
I think three things when I think abt Charles and Scott's relationship and it's the "But Lucier was an angel too" line from AVX and the panels where Charles realizes just how badly he's failed Scott in Prelude to Schism. And also the line from Xmen 1991 #53. What intrigues me abt their relationship is that Charles has both saved Scott and also royally fucked him over and he acknowledges that in prelude to schism. Granted- not out loud to anyone but himself. Prelude to schism also! Highlights the fact that their bond is that of father and son. (Or at the very least, Charles views Scott as a son and I could debate Scott never viewing himself as anyone's child but that's for a different day.) Which is interesting 2 me again because there is that like... several month long period before Bobby where it's just Scott and Charles and I think about what that must have been like regularly. But it's important that Charles directly saves Scott from an abusive situation. I think in general Charles does surround himself with other people he can identify with because he is such a private and reserved person if that makes... any sense at all? I guess. In that regard though. He is constantly pushing Scott to be better, not just better towards humans but better than his peers. Scott has to be in control, he can't let his guard down, he is the leader, that's what he has to be. That's what Charles teaches him. It isn't even really (imo) empowerment through his mutation, it's empowerment through control. Because like... imagine being 15, with powers you can't control when everyone else can control theirs, and you're told: "No, you will not fight the weaker person even if they call you freak because you need to be in control at all times." and we see how this impacts Scott via.... every comic with Scott in it ever. And what gets me in PS1 is that we see 15 year old Scott talking back a little, we see and hear his frustrations. He's even! a little rebellious, staring up at the sky with his beams going when he knows he's not supposed to. Scott shifts from 15 year old kid to The man for the job. His role is to be strong via his control in himself and his control around others.
This kind of stands in juxtaposition imo with like... referencing X-Men movies here, the way that Erik often tells Charles that he could literally change the whole world's minds about mutants if he so wishes, he is powerful enough to do so. But Charles doesn't because morals and doing what's right SLASH exercising the control necessary to be perceived as 'not threat' by humanity. His control is needed, otherwise the idea of coexisting with humans is threatened.This leads me to the line in X-Men 91 #53 in regards to Scott "He hasn’t had an independent thought since he was fifteen. He has no will of his own." Which like in regards to Scott's backround b4 Charles even gets him. Scott is a perpetual victim of circumstance up until he starts being an X-Men.
I can talk a lot about Scott's lack of mental boundaries for ages but tbh. Scott doesn't have boundaries in general because he's never been told he should have them but that IS a subject for another time bc it also interests me the level of shit Scott takes (especially from Alex but again, subject for another time.) But Scott takes in, performs, and enacts Charles will via becoming an X-Men. He is the poster boy, the stick in the mud leader, the guy who doesn't know how to have fun. Because he has to be the man for the job. He has to be in control (like Xavier) at ALL times.
Also smthn to note about Scott as well is that Scott is like nigh incapable of doing any kind of introspection on himself. He acts a certain way, gets embarrassed and berates himself for being the way he is, and listen. Scott does not like himself! He doesn't understand why he acts the way he acts and he doesn't understand why other people don't like him when he's doing what he's told. He wants to be normal, he wants what other people have so badly. but he can't. Because he, like Xavier, has to be the man for the job.
And I think Scott's: "But Lucifer was an angel too." line in AvX is so.. raw, that entire monologue is so raw because it's Scott at his worst. It's Scott losing control but it's also Scott basically saying. "No, fuck you. This time I'm going to punch the people calling me freak, I'm tired of being the one in control" And it's explosive obviously bc he got the Phoenix in his brain or whatever. But it's also the height of Scott during what I'd call a severe mental breakdown. Not to mention he does in fact kill Charles during this. But the line effectively says: "You have created me, told me what to do, and I have done what you asked. And now you are going to damn what you have created." But it's also like. Digging into angel bullshit Lucifer is the light-bringer/truth bringer, So Scott is effectively saying: I am literally ushering the world into a new era (WHICH HE IS TECHNICALLY SUCCESFUL AT AS THIS EVENT DOES BRING ABOUT NEW MUTANTS LMAO) , like you told me to, and you want me to stop????? You want me to stop doing the thing you created me for???? I could think and talk about Scott identifying with Lucifer for wAY too fucking long. So I'll cut it short with this: Scott killing Charles, albeit not on his own volition, is a way of saying "You don't get to control what I do anymore. I'm taking the power you promised me and using it to show you what went wrong."

Concept: The hero keeps vaguely remembering personal events without being able to identify any of the people or places involved.
They do, however, remember jumping off a cliff and breaking both of their legs when they tried to fly as a kid. And getting in a brawl with an adult over a gummi. And... other stories that raise more questions than answers.
Why isn't anyone laughing with them?

Not me convincing myself whilst doing the washing up that the fact that Hilmes is associated with the moon rather than the sun means not just that he isn't destined to become the king of Pars, but that Arakawa is setting up for him to rule Maryam instead (sure, there's only one sun in the sky and only one person can be Shah of Pars, but Maryam is a whole different country... the sun presides over the day, and the moon over the night... Arslan can have Pars, and Hilmes can find a way to be happy in Maryam)
Honestly the main thing is that he gets to be happy and if that means he ends up living quietly with Irina I am okay with that, but honestly this is my preference for him, and if he's planning on taking Maryam then he will need Zandeh with him for support etc, right?

Today was the first time I read the words "Tongues battling for dominance" in a fanfic.
I'd only ever heard of it before.
I witnessed it today.

Having thoughts again....something about her sparkly dress for the 1975 concert and mirrorball and "trying everything to keep you laughing at me" and the glittery blood in the anti hero mv and the interview with directors on directors about the reason for the glittery blood....

she regretted it the moment she handed the small parcel to him. hetty, you absolute fool! this was not the sort of relationship they had - one that involved thoughtful gifts, earnestly exchanged before christmas. their relationship was the sort that involved urgent touches and heady kisses and leaving beds before the harsh light of daybreak. and yet, here she was. sitting before the fire in his bachelor's lodgings, wrapped in his dressing gown, passing him a gift so sentimental it was beyond excuse. beneath the brown paper wrapping was a small bound book - the libretto for cimarosa's il matrimonio segreto. it was, she remembered, the first performance of hers he'd attended, and pressed between its pages was a flower from the first bouquet he'd brought her. she felt sheepish giving it to him now, like a stupid, giddy schoolgirl. it was a silent admission that that night had mattered to her - that she assumed it mattered to him as well. but the package was in his hands now and she was pulling his robe more tightly about her, the only layer of protection she had left. " you mustn't get too excited, " she said, with what she hoped was a careless shrug. " i promise it isn't much - i only had the idea the other morning... "
