Run III
You have made the drastic decision to break open the In Case Of Emergency box. You need to do it NOW. Now, now, now. Your feet feel rooted to the landing. It's going to hurt, breaking the glass. It'll hurt real bad. Unfortunately, you've spent too long considering it to spare the time for an email. Maybe it's better this way, the emails are creepy as hell and growing creepier by the minute. You can't keep standing there all helpless and waiting. You take a deep breath in and charge at the box, fist extended, choosing to only exhale when you've done it. As you meet your mark, the glass explodes from the point of contact, embedding shards of itself into your skin and bloodying your fist and some of your arm. One shard even slashes across your upper cheek, luckily failing to find purchase in it and falling away. Your nerves scream at you that you have personally offended them. Trying to push through the pain, you search around inside the box with your more functional hand. A defibrillator. Huh. You tuck it under your arm just as soon as the hurt starts to really catch up with you. Something slithers down your spine and you slap at the back of your shirt with your injured hand, which finds nothing out of the ordinary. And then, the same cold movement up your arm, noticeably pushing the glass deeper inside. You hit at it there too, growing desperate and beginning to panic as all this accomplishes is further bloodying yourself. When it makes a path across your chest and of course you slap it down too, you finally see something of interest. An almost imperceptible plume of dark smoke billows out from the head hole of your shirt and dissipates into the air. Disperses, maybe. The walls feel like they have eyes. Another slithering thing grabs your ankle, and you begin to hyperventilate, kicking at the invisible assailant. Finally getting yourself free of this latest invasion,

Seasonal Color Analysis: David Duchovny, Gillian Anderson, and Their Colors
Tumblr media
If anyone wants to see more in-depth about David and Gillian and their colors, click to read more; but if you're okay without the extra details, no worries! We'll catch up on the next X-Files meta post.
Quick Summary of my first post: GA and DD both have red undertones (as seen in the above picture); but the red does not overtake the yellow in DD's skin (giving him a Warm Hue undertone) while the red tips over the scale into pink for GA (giving her a Cool Hue undertone.) GA is a Clear Winter, meaning her chroma (High) is first consideration when it comes to colors compared to their Hues (warm or cool); David is a Soft Autumn, meaning his chroma (Low) is also first consideration when it comes to Hues (again, warm or cool.) Because undertone does not change or fade with age, the same application for their younger selves applies still in their 50s and 60s.
TLDR: Explaining myself a little further with DD and GA's colors photoshopped near their face-- providing receipts, if you will~.
Saw a few posts (reblogged on my timeline if you're curious) and wanted to clarify some points I made on my color analysis post here:
David, Gillian, and Jewellry
David still has his warm and red undertone-- which doesn't change with age-- and can pull off cool colors as well as his predominant warm ones because he is Soft Autumn (meaning: if the chroma of whatever color remains muted, he can pretty much swing it.) He is encouraged to wear bronze, silver, pewter, rose gold, and other metals that err on the muted side.
Gillian is encouraged to wear White and Platinum jewelry over silver because of those metal's bright, cool undertone because she is a Bright/Clear Winter (if she were a Summer instead of a winter, silver would be advised for its muted, cool undertone.) She can also pull off gold because of her Bright Chroma (present in the warm yellows of her Bright Winter Palette, shown below.) Gillian is going to look great in some Springs instead of some Winters because of the Chroma consideration of her skin: if the color, cool or warm, is muted, she doesn't look as fantastic as she would with brighter colors, cool or warm. It's hard to tell with her modern appearances because of the frequent use of body tan, but her skin is naturally quite pale and cool and porcelain. If her outfits verge too warm, then her hair becomes brassier, and her skin takes on an orange tinge.
DAVID IN HIS COLORS
Here is the Soft Autumn palette below:
Tumblr media
And here are my (bad) editing attempts of David in said colors:
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
The greens below even bring out more olive in his skin (compared to the very warm red usually present):
Tumblr media
When David is swatched with Winter and Autumn colors, the differences really show up, I think:
Tumblr media
The Winter swatches are vastly cooler than his skin, giving it a muddied, grayed out appearance; the Autumns, however, inject a level of warmth back into it, complimenting his undertone no matter what lighting he's in.
Lastly, here's David in a Winter muted Hue (left) and a Autumn muted Hue (right) to demonstrate the swatches a bit better.
Tumblr media
Although he likely had very little sleep when filming either scene, David looks washed out, drained, and tired in the black; and significantly less tired and washed out in the brown.
GILLIAN IN HER COLORS
Here is the Bright/Clear Winter Palette below:
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
When GA is swatched with Spring and Clear Winter colors, the difference becomes more pronounced, I think:
Tumblr media
As you can see, spring colors aren't bad; but the winter colors bring out a delicate, healthy pink to her skin (and hair.) Specifically: the nude shade on the left is warmer peach compared to her skin, whereas the nude shade on the right blends into her cool pink undertone quite naturally.
And lastly, here's Gillian in a Spring bright Hue (left) and a Winter bright Hue (right) to demonstrate the swatches a bit better.
Tumblr media
There's a "GA vs. the shirt" quality the blue Spring has that the white Winter does not.
Masculine v. Feminine Aesthetic Footnote
I think I covered everything in my beautiful first post here and the follow-up response here. Have at!
CONCLUSION
I hope my facts are all in order, and that I haven't forgotten to present anything that might lead to more confusion, etc.
If we don't agree, all well and good.
Thanks for reading~
Enjoy!

Glen, Children of Misfortune, Juries and the Baskervilles
[When I say Glen, I am referring all Glens- past and present: Levi, Oswald, Gil and Leo. Hella lot of lore is here that I wanna write about ;-; so I might divide this into different posts let's see. Also fair warning: I might criticize Oswald's actions-past and present- a bit, since I love looking at characters from an unbiased pov. Also, maybe some characters' past actions in order to point to their character development so that too.]
[ Part 1 | Part 2 | Part 3 | Part 4]
3] Oswald and his sin of passivity
Coming back to Oswald—just like Gil and Leo, Oswald too had to choose between being a big brother or being the Glen and he chooses the latter. (honestly, he had the choice of being both as I said in Part 1, I will elaborate here)
And, he decides to become the Glen and casts Lacie into the Abyss.
Well, if he has chosen a side, he should stick to it, right? Just like in Leo’s case, no matter how painful your choice is, you should stick to it, right? He should put all of himself into his duties as Glen, right?
But he doesn’t.
See, this scene is played off for giggles— (Retrace 69)
Tumblr media
—however, it is very telling of something: Oswald doesn’t even know who the rest of his people are. He wonders if Charlotte arrived after he became Glen,, but seeing how she raised her voice at him before realizing who it was, she must hold a senior position among the Baskervilles. True she arrived after he became Glen (mainly because she didn’t know Jack at the time); even in that case, does it mean the new Glen is not getting acquainted with the people that walk into the Baskerville estate?
Yeah. Because Oswald never moved on from the day of Lacie’s execution. He continued to exist “passively” and waited for time to pass. After Alice arrived at the Baskerville estate, he added one duty to his otherwise empty schedule: to bring up food for her. Otherwise, most of the time, during the past memories, whether they be Jack’s or actual, Oswald is simply… sleeping. Closing his eyes to his mistakes he doesn’t want to relive or regret. If he sleeps, he doesn’t have to take responsibility for his actions or his duties as Glen that he never wanted from the beginning.
You might think he was more “active” when he returned and took over Leo’s body,, actually no…. (Retrace 94)
Tumblr media
This is what he says to Vincent. How exactly did his “stop thinking, do nothing,” attitude help him? Jack took advantage of it to the max, yeah. Now, here, Vincent, who has been self-destructive all throughout this story, gains a spark of desire to live, because of Break (again!); he saves him from the consequence of his own “inaction” (when he surrendered to Glen and would have got killed at his hands) and scolded him to stop looking into the past for salvation. 
Those words coming from someone he least expected (see here: how antagonist Vince has always been to Break for no reason) “wrap around him like a coil”;—in other words, Vince had subconsciously been seeking to hear “it’s okay to live” from someone. Even though those words came from someone as unlikely as Break, his mind immediately grasped onto it, shaking to the core what he had imagined was a sincerely firm decision on his behalf.
Tumblr media
I don’t even know... what I want anymore. But... there was no deceit in the vow I took then.
Vincent is in a sensitive situation here, a sort of make-or-break. He doesn't know what he wants because what he thought he wanted all along was not what he really wanted. His mind is in complete turmoil; that's why he keeps asking others (Leo, Oswald etc.) what he should do. Break already gave his answer and confirmed what he had been scared of all along—that he did want to live on and... be forgiven for his past sins. Whereas Oswald... continues to cling onto his passivity. Do nothing, stop thinking, go to sleep.
.
In fact, once Jack took charge of Alice (Retrace 70):
Tumblr media
—I believe, Oswald dropped visiting Alice as well. Perhaps, she reminded him too much of Lacie (and so, his mistakes) or he so unconditionally trusted Jack to watch over Lacie's child or what,, but see, the only memories Alice has of Oswald are from pre-Jack-re-appearance period. That'd also explain why Oswald was so utterly caught off-guard and didn't suspect any foul play from Jack till the very eve of the Tragedy of Sablier.
Had Oswald been regularly talking to Alice, he'd have known the Core of the Abyss could visit their world through the shared body too and had he realized how dangerous it is to let an outsider (a human) deal with the Core, he would have curbed Jack's visits to Alice.
He had been neglecting his duties as the Glen after he picked the choice to become Glen.
As I said, it's this exact passivity that helped Jack to take full advantage of his cracks and his weakness. Because Jack was the only person who remembered Lacie, Oswald wanted to continue being his “friend”. For him, Jack was the sole anchor for him to cling onto a lost past. Once again, in Break’s words, Oswald was trying to “look for a future in his past,” and it'll never work. Once you have decided on a course of action, you gotta pick up your pieces and move on, not stay stuck in the past of your mistakes and regrets.
Also, about Jack and Oswald. Jack was never his friend, to begin with. Jack came over to see Lacie and befriended Oswald in the process. Later, on his return after Lacie’s death, he was there, already with all plans of backstabbing him. Oswald, who could see through people so well that he compared Jack to water on their very first meeting, decided to close his eyes to Jack's intentions and hoped that if he does nothing, everything will return to normal.
Unfortunately, life doesn't go that way. Remember Lottie's words: It's impossible to keep living without hurting anybody? Yeah. It works the other way round too; if you stay still and do nothing, others will hurt you to keep living.
.
The sad thing here is that Oswald was so desperately trying to befriend Jack while he had actual good and loyal people around him, whom he ignored (just like he ignored his duties of Glen) for the sake of Jack (to continue sharing memories of Lacie who didn't exist anywhere because of his own fault.)
Charlotte of course (I have written an entire post about her here) and Fang and the other Baskervilles who could have been loyal and caring retainers to him
but also..... the then Duke Nightray. (Retrace 73)
Tumblr media
See? This guy warned Oswald to not invite Jack and Miranda to their residence anymore. He was looking out for Oswald; he had the right hunch about Jack and if only Oswald had listened to him and not invited Jack on the day of Gil's ceremony?
But, Oswald is so desperate to cling on to his past, to Lacie, to Jack and of all the good memories they shared (and which will never return because the magic was gone with Lacie) that he values the words of a young, impressionable, gullible child over an experienced well-wisher.
Tumblr media
In the end, his passivity not only caused the Tragedy of Sablier, but also tarnished the reputation of the Baskervilles as well as the Nightray Dukedom while the families of those who he considered 'friends' moved way up in the world.
