ok this is def a 'you can see the demographic of this site aging' post but like...did you know that you have to buy pillow inserts at a bigger size than the pillow covers??? did you????
because i had to replace some pillow inserts and my apparently foolish ass thought 'oh 22" pillow covers -- clearly i buy 22" pillow inserts' and ohhhhnonono that way lies soggy sad floppy pillows!
so bc i dragged a giant bag of 4 pillow inserts on public transport once and i'm not fucking doing it again, i just used some old bedsheets i had around to make three 24" inserts, ripped open the too-small ones and split the fourth one into thirds to make up for the increased space et voilà
shoulda taken a pic of them before but rest assured these are the grapes to the raisins they were

It's late and I'm staring at these gifs, thinking about this episode and these scenes again and you know, fuck it, let's make a post about it that no one will read.
I'm honestly embarrassed it took me this long to realize this. When this episode aired, my man Dick Grayson was dragged for not getting this blade to work sooner and the reason why is honestly so obvious I'm ashamed of myself for not getting it sooner (I'm sorry Dicky, I should've known, I should have defended you my love)
Dick is a man of logic. And here he's dealing with magic, which is more emotion than logic. We see him struggling with this difference the entire season. He's told his love for Rachel is what will make the blade work (fyi I'm still recovering from that statement) and he spends the episode chasing after this monster he's supposed to kill and thinking how he is supposed to get this to work.
And he can't because he's being too technical about it.
Darling, you're not supposed to think. You're supposed to FEEL.
When does the blade show up? When the monster charges at Rachel, who's lying there on the floor, weak and defenseless. The monster charges at her with the intention to kill, she can't defend herself and Dick gets scared. This love, this very thing that is supposed to make the blade is what makes him feel scared. He doesn't think, he feels, and the blade shows up in his hand.
He is able to kill the monster and complete the ritual not because he figured out how to make the blade work or came up with a plan. He kills the monster not because of a theory of a threat that he was told about, not because of something that could happen if he didn't, but because he saw a real active threat to the person he loves, the person who couldn't protect herself, who was vulnerable and he reacted in the most natural, instinctual way - with the need to protect.
And I think that's fucking beautiful.
