#our flag means death #omfd #THE SYMBOLIC SHROUD + GLOVE SAGA!!!!!!!! #when i tell you i SCREAMED at that part in ep 10... #i honestly could not believe what i was seeing #like. you're telling me the writers are Rope Understanders too???? I'm not just being insane??????? #NOPE!!!!!! Rope Symbolism in ofmd is Real And Deadly #and they're specifically fond of this Specific rope which i assume is because it's called a shroud #so like. EXTRA BONUS DEATH SYMBOLISM WOOHOO #and the way both Izzy and Ed touch it with their full gloves (aka their Killing Gloves) like. OKAYYYYYYYYYYYY #Ed's full gloves in general make my brain go brrrrrrrrrrrrrr Because Symbolism (naturally) but this combination is just Too Much #and i needed all of you to see it as well #like. THIS - this right here????? #*THIS* is the difference between necessary and unnecessary rope touching #it's a ship so people Have to touch rope in their work or maybe to stabilize themselves #but tell me In What Universe either of these are necessary? They're Not. #and that's how you can tell that something is Happening #in this case: Death Foreshadowing maybe probably #if you don't still think that i still think Izzy is going to die - you're very wrong #he's DEFINITELY going to die #i'm just thrilled that it's going to be later rather than sooner so that he can suffer some more for my personal enjoyment #and maybe even experience a little tenderness? as a treat???? #only time will tell! #ofmd spoilers #our flag means death spoilers
