TWD: Daryl Dixon “Paris sera toujours Paris” Review

☕️Beware of Spoilers☕️

Last week we finally learned how Laurent was brought into the world and we now reach the third leg of the journey for Daryl Dixon and the location this time is Paris. Before Isabelle and Daryl reach the city they come across the town of Angers to one of Isabelle’s allies who has a radio, or so she leads Daryl to believe. Sylvie and Laurent stay behind armed and ready. I’m not sure if this was the brightest move on their part leaving them out in the open but Daryl and Isabelle venture into the theater to her contact and he’s one strange musician.

Of course, we reach the never-ending saga of French radios that do not work, which is becoming way too predictable at this point. Daryl remains more than irritated that the radio has been used for nothing more than to feed this man’s musical obsession. Instead of trying to help, the man leads them to his stage of zombies in an orchestra. The bodyless head playing the strings was a nice touch but this was undoubtedly one of the strangest scenes in The Walking Dead and one giant waste of time as the crazed man was no help at all. And just as predicted the kids got in over their heads with walkers coming their way. Daryl must save the day and he has had enough of Isabelle’s leadership. It’s time to do things his way now. Though I’m not sure if that’s a good or bad thing given his track record so far in France.

Soon the group reaches Paris and it’s a homecoming for Isabelle. From afar Laurent admires the Eiffel Tower for the first time, much like Daryl did upon his arrival. But Paris brings back a lot of memories Isabelle would rather not relive. It’s the very reason why she spent the last decade avoiding it.

As they march on Isabelle shows Laurent some of her mother’s old stomping grounds. It’s not quite clear if Laurent knows Isabelle is his aunt. She has been lying about so much already so that wouldn’t be surprising. She then tells Daryl about the “pourvoir” movement. During the outbreak in desperate times, people think to order..”Yeah or God.” Daryl remarks back. That line makes it evident that Daryl doesn’t believe in either side of the fight in France. It makes it really hard to fight for something you don’t believe in.

The group stumbles upon the grave of American Rock star Jim Morrison after Laurent tells another story that nobody asked for about the fortitude of a weary woodsman. How death came for him and he had a change of heart. It is nice to know Laurent has so much “useful information” but I’m not sure that it adds any value to the story. Laurent assures Daryl that he will not face the same Morrison fate and die in France. Unclear if he thinks he’s a psychic or trying to ease Daryl’s fear but I think we all know Daryl Dixon is untouchable and not going to perish anytime soon.

Another ally comes along just in time, Fallou. He has heard the story of Laurent but not seen it with his own eyes and he is mesmerized by the child as are all his people. They’d been waiting a long time to meet the miracle boy. It is a small community of 64 members and Sylvie quickly catches the eyes of a young man.

And on come the homing pigeons. They are used for messaging because they always find their way back home. Daryl thinks this idea is crazy and to get a message to America, it would just take too long. What came next was the most interesting part of the show. Carol is alluded to throughout this episode but this was the moment that screamed her name. While the trainer is holding one of the pigeons to be released he looks at the small creature and says “Maybe he has a girlfriend..we all have a person who waits for us somewhere.” And as Daryl listens he drops his head in both sadness and guilt. He’s dying to get to a radio to send word back and the further they keep going the more walls he is running into. I do however think the girlfriend line is very interesting. They didn’t have to throw that line in if they were trying to stick to the platonic soulmate trope.

Another fun fact is when pigeons mate they mate for life. Which is how Norman Reedus always saw the character of Daryl. No matter where they go they can always find their way back home to their mate.

At this point, Daryl is over the games. These people are no use to him if they aren’t living up to their end of the deal. Daryl knows that Fallou can get them to The Nest the rest of the way and if there is no radio then she can’t help him. Fallou lets him know there are people in Paris that trade for all kinds of things but he will need currency. He’s ready to steal so he can make a trade to get back home but Isabelle said she will get what he needs. After all, it is the least she could do after the amount of times Daryl has saved them.

Now here lies two major problems in this spinoff:

1. The lying to Laurent, these are supposed to be people of God and Laurent's life is nothing but one big lie. I felt for the kid last week in “Aloutte” when he told children all the lies he’d been told about his past. They only knew him for 5 seconds and knew it was fabricated. They are putting a lot of hope and pressure on Laurent when he doesn’t even know he’s the face of humanity in France. Daryl thinks they should be honest with him. Laurent has strong empathic abilities to read people but I don’t think he’s a miracle child by any means. Everyone is given a gift.

2. Isabelle believes Daryl was sent to her by God to deliver Laurent to revive humanity. However, she seems pretty capable of handling bad people on her own. She’s been out there a long time growing the Union of Hope. The “killer nuns” know how to defend themselves so I don’t see why they needed to use Daryl as a man who can escort them. It seems very outdated. On the other hand, Isabelle does a horrendous job at fighting walkers even if she can kill humans like it’s nobody’s business. At this stage of the game she should be experienced in that area.

Codron is still after Daryl and he’s not going to rest until revenge is served. He comes to Genet with information and Genet hires him to find the American. Strange experiments are going on with walkers/burners and I get the vibe these are not being done to free the world of tyranny. I believe there is a dark purpose behind it all. If you look back on the burner walkers that is not something that just naturally happens.

Now we have reached the infamous Demimonde underground nightclub club which Quinn of all people owns. There are acrobats, a drag queen, and performers of all kinds. A lounge-type singer named Anna has a miraculous voice and seems to be somewhat of an item to Quinn.

Eventually, they get to Isabelle’s to gather some things to trade. There is a line from Isabelle that just clarifies how much Isabelle doesn’t know Daryl..” you seem like someone who’s always thinking” She is glad the two of them crossed paths she tells him but he refuses to share the same sentiment. He isn’t happy to be there but in the same turn, he doesn’t hate her for it. She’s not the reason he ended up here. He must play nice for now to garner a ticket back home.

Isabelle is admiring some artwork on the wall. A piece by Monet called “The Water Lilies.” She tells Daryl she used to go visit the museum every weekend and admire it. It was like a port in the storm for her. “It kind of reminds me of home,” Daryl replied to her. Upon those words, Isabelle looks like him with a hint of remorse for even pointing it out to him. There’s a tinge of jealousy every time Daryl talks about going home. But there are two very interesting things regarding this scene that are written subtly in the script. “A port in the storm.” We know that Daryl and Carol are each other’s safe harbor. Carol has always anchored Daryl. “The Water Lilies” also reflects home making him think back to Carol and the Cherokee roses by the water. She is his home and just as Isabelle walks away to speak to Quinn Daryl takes one last look back at the painting missing the happiness he was so close to having.

Quinn lets Daryl know it’s not impossible to get to America. He’s heard things and they travel to his office to talk about it in a deeper capacity. He offers champagne to which they decline. Quinn starts to lay into Isabelle that she should have told him about Lily and the baby. Isabelle is not sure why she would because he didn’t even want to help Lily back in the day. Then it is revealed that Quinn is the father of Laurent leaving Isabelle in an alarmingly shocked state. It was Quinn who saved Isabelle’s life before when she tried to take it and Quinn never lets her forget it. Daryl doesn’t like the way this is heading and tells her he doesn’t need a boat from them this badly. He can find another way. She is irritated with Daryl at this point because she’d come all this way to help him to help him keep his promise. “That’s all you care about isn’t it?” She asks him and Daryl doesn’t deny it. Well of course not his plans are not going to be changed over a group of strangers he just met. Isabelle’s constant annoyance with Daryl wanting to get back to his family and fulfill a promise is very peculiar. What else would she expect? “Oh since you said so I must be a messenger of god and I’ll stay with you forever and do everything you ask?” Come on now.

On a side note I don’t think it’s a huge deal Daryl was not prepared to have Isabelle go through pain to get a boat. Daryl has always been a good judge of character. There’s nothing shippy about him not wanting to be a jerk to get what he wants. Isabelle doesn’t exactly exude the same energy though.

Just as Daryl is about to leave for the second time this episode he tells Isabelle she should stop lying to Laurent. Quinn being his father will just be added to the mountain of lies. I love seeing the old Daryl shine in this episode especially when he tells her Laurent deserves to know who he is. Maybe that’s something she needs to believe, that he’s a gift from God. He can still be a miracle and not be the messiah he tells hers just as hell broke loose. Laurent overhears them and gets furious with them both while Codron has tracked him down regardless of the deal Genet and Quinn had to steer clear of each other's territory. Daryl goes on the run and it becomes another glorious beta vs. Daryl battle before he falls through the floor in a cliffhanger. My favorite part of this scene was Daryl dropping his knife that resembles Carol’s. The camera really panned in on it which purposeful symbolism.

My takeaways:

Too much inconsistency with Daryl. He’s a hero one minute then seems incompetent on his own at other times. The amount of times he says “I’m better off on my own” and it’s proven otherwise is countless.

Isabelle is often the same, she comes across as a strong and capable woman but then acts as if she needs a man to get her from point A to point B. I don’t think she needs Daryl at all so it does beg the question as to why is she trying to hold onto him and control him? However, I do understand the script had to be written a certain way to prolong Daryl’s stay in France to give Carol time to arrive. It would be devastating if he left when Carol arrived.

There is no chemistry between Isabelle and Daryl. I know that’s what some of you are worried about. With any Daryl/Norman Reedus ship they are going to try and point fans in that direction for drama and attention but I just don’t see it. Especially not with Carol returning. This is not Daryl’s happy ending…a happy ending is not something that you have to be forced or guilted into. A happy ending is not an obligation because you get stuck in a place you don’t belong. I think deep down it feels good for Daryl to help people but he wants to carry on paying it forward. He’s not looking for a place to hang up his hat just yet. Though we all do wish he would hang up that scarf.

We have not seen the last of Quinn. He still has feelings for Isabelle. Isabelle has shut that part of herself off. But I do think it’s a little hypocritical of her to judge Quinn’s lifestyle when she used to be the same. She was the one who wanted to give Daryl the benefit of the doubt and compassion even if he didn’t believe in God. It is pretty clear she’s a master manipulator and does exactly what she needs to get her way. Whether that is towards Daryl to get him to babysit them all across France or to her ex, Quinn to get what’s needed to secure a boat. For me, it all looks like a game to Isabelle. I’m not sure how much she wants to get a boat for Daryl but as a Christian, it is her duty to be a woman of her word.

Now call me crazy but I thought Nuns were supposed to be as honest as possible. Isabelle lies to Daryl from the start to manipulate him into helping them get to The Nest(and you will see how in a later episode.)She has not only lied to Laurent about who he is and where he came from but also created stories about a pseudo-father. Laurent doesn’t know she’s his aunt or that he is going to revive all of the humanity of France. All she tells him is that he’s special. Meanwhile, everyone they cross looks at Laurent like the angels are singing when he walks.

Fallou did say the radio hasn’t worked in a long time. That had to be information Isabelle was privy to. Much like how she led Daryl on at the Abbey about their radio only to tell him it doesn’t work. I don’t think Isabelle is a villain but she does too many selfish acts for me to like her. It doesn’t matter if she’s a nun now it’s like this selfish manipulative side was something engrained in her from before that’s never gone away, not even with the cloth.

The best takeaway from this episode is Daryl’s heart and his willingness to get word back home. He can only imagine what is going through Carol’s mind right now. Daryl always checks in with her and he does seem frantic about getting to a radio. Every hurdle he jumps over to get radio access comes to a screeching halt so now his best bet is to find a boat to travel back home. From there he can radio out to her.

“SAY HER NAME”

The Carol writing is all over the wall but it’s not definitive enough for my liking. Anybody who knows how to follow a narrative is going to know the safe harbor, home, the promise, and sadness that washes over him is because of Carol. And just as The Walking Dead usually does with the most popular ship of the show they don’t make it obvious enough. There is always that wiggle room. I do understand the poeticness of it but we need both Carol and Daryl to lay their hearts on the line once and for all. But I do however love all the symbolism. Famous french paintings that remind him of Carol, the pigeons, the girlfriend call back, and the knife.

I hope you enjoyed the Caryl hints in this episode. I know I did. There’s a scene coming up in Episode 4 that will completely warm your heart and I believe is another nod to Caryl and their future! Feel free to ask me questions to dive in deeper. Xoxo

OMG... This might actually be Beth's return!

This is a long article with lots of cool stuff about TOWL.

Here is that part that could be about Beth's return:

"While The Ones Who Live is populated with new characters like Thorne and Nat, one can't help but wonder if some blasts from the past besides Jadis might also make an appearance. Considering how focused World Beyond was on the CRM, it would feel only natural for some of those characters - or, say, Fear the Walking Dead CRM helicopter pilot Isabell (Sydney Lemmon) - to show up here. "I think that's probably the expected thing," says Gimple. "And I think it's more unexpected than that, who we may or may not see."

That does not mean the show will completely avoid the past. EW can reveal that some hidden history will indeed be revealed on The Ones Wh Live, and that revelation will include the return of at least one familiar face. Could it be Lennie James' Morgan, who left Fear the Walking Dead explicitly to search for his long lost pal Rick? Or might Seth Gilliam's Father Gabriel Stokes - who shares a last name with Jadis - somehow reenter the picture to complicate matters for his former flame?"

Hidden history???

More unexpected than Fear or WB characters...........

It definitely could be Beth!

Thoughts?

#team delusional #beth greene lives #bethyl #team defiance #twd daryl and beth #beth is coming #beth greene #beth is alive

“You kept it.”

“What?” It takes her a brief second to put two and two together. She’s still a little groggy, having barely gotten any sleep though she has absolutely no complaints. Her brows furrow as she lifts her head from his bare chest to look up at him and the realization hits her the moment their eyes lock.

His thumb brushes against her smooth skin as his hand is sprawled out over her side. He’s been mindlessly tracing around it since Lucy woke up but she hadn’t quite placed where his hand was until he mentioned it. Truthfully, she doesn’t think about it as much anymore. At first, she couldn’t wait to get it removed, counting down the literal seconds until she was able to get the reminder off of her body.

Then, at four weeks, one day, and seven hours, she was given a new perspective on it. Reminded that she wasn’t a victim but rather a survivor; that it wasn’t her day of death but rather the first day of the rest of her life.

Up until this moment, she was unsure of whether he knew or not. She assumed he did since she never mentioned that she got it removed but neither of them ever really brought it up again. Now, she realizes that he may have assumed otherwise and she shifts off of him, pressing her elbow onto the bed to get a better look at him.

“I did,” she answers with a soft smile, “You reminded me that I wasn’t a victim.”

“You weren’t.”

“I know, it was just so hard to get past that. Everyone was treating me like this fragile little thing that was going to shatter. The looks they gave me, some out of pity and others like they’d seen a ghost. I remember walking into the roll call room and everyone clapping and I just—I didn’t want that attention, it was too much. And it was itchy!” she chuckles lightly at this, “Not only did a sadist etch my day of death onto my skin but it was gnawing at me like a reminder and I was literally counting down until the day it’d stop boring into me. But then you came in and gave this speech about how you saw me as a survivor and I don’t know, something clicked? It suddenly didn’t bother me anymore.”

Tim’s eyes never break from her and he stares at her in a way that she’s never been looked at before. His lips are pressed into a fine line but she can see how he’s fighting the curve against the edge of them that threatens to break into a small smile. It sends shivers down her spine, how they’re currently existing in space and time. Her free hand reaches for his, intertwining their fingers together as he gently strokes the side of her thumb.

“You were talking about the scars you have, the ones you could see and the ones you couldn’t. Your dad, Isabel, the job. I mean I didn’t know as much as I do now but I know it was a lot. You told me that you saw it as the first day of the rest of my life and I couldn’t shake that, you were right. Caleb died and I lied. You know? I told him that too. He asked me if I had any last words as he put me in the barrel and I told him that he’d be dead before I was. I knew that you were coming, I knew you’d come and save me. I didn’t know how but I knew.”

There’s a silence that fills the air as she stares at Tim. There’s a shift in his expression, there’s a mix of anger and fear that she can see crackling behind blue eyes, how his jaw has hardened and he’s taking in everything she’s just said.

“You saved yourself,” he finally answers.

“I did,” she smiles softly thinking back to how she’s heard those words before and how much of a reminder it is of her strength, “But you definitely helped. How did you know I’d left the ring?”

It’d been a gamble, there was nothing more that she could do but make the split second decision to leave something behind. It was something she learned at the Academy, one of the many lessons that Lucy hoped she’d never need to use. She hoped and prayed those that were looking for her would spot it but even then, she didn’t know because despite the fact that the ring didn’t belong in the middle of the desert, she also knew that because she wore it only off duty, it wouldn’t be a given that it belonged to her.

Except, he did, and she’d never been able to form the words to ask him about it until now.

“It reflected back, the sun was hitting it at just the perfect angle that it stood out,” he explains.

“Right,” she gives him a small nod, “But that doesn’t explain how you knew the ring was mine.”

Tim’s free hand rises to her head as he runs his fingers through her messy waves in comfort. She’s always known that the entire ordeal was hard for him too. She was his rookie, there was the guilt he felt over her going out with Caleb to begin with, the fact that he’d been the one to pull her out and breath her back to life. She just never realized what the extent of it was. She’s about to apologize and tell him that they can change the subject when he answers.

“I’d see you wearing it out of uniform sometimes.” Lucy’s expression morphs into slight confusion as her brows knit together with a small smirk. “I didn’t think you’d notice.”

“Spacial awareness,” he teases, “I thought that the moonstone was pretty. It’s what caught my eye. Afterward, when I’d see you wear it, I kind of hoped you were wearing it to remind yourself that you were a survivor.”

Her gaze brightens as a smile curves on her lips. “It was. It is.”

It’s funny how a little piece of jewelry could hold so much meaning. Before, it had been a statement piece that she liked to wear, something to jazz up her wardrobe. Afterward, it became a symbol of her resilience and a trinket of safety. She associated it with him the moment he gave it back to her. As if it was a reminder that as long as she had it, he’d be around to help and support her. He denied it once, saying that wasn’t really part of the job description but if there’s anyone Lucy trusts with her life, it’s Tim.

“It did remind me of that but it also reminded me of you.”

“Oh?”

“I was dead, Tim.” She can’t help but notice how he stiffens at this, his hand protectively squeezing hers in reaction to her statement. “I died and you brought me back to life. You helped find me, you pulled me out of the barrel, you held me as I fell apart, and you never left my side. Having you around made me feel so safe and I’ve known since that no matter where I am and no matter what’s going on, as long as you’re nearby, I’ll be okay.”

Just like that, he relaxes and she sees how all the negative emotions that suddenly clouded them by the topic of conservation melt away. His smile reaches his eyes as he gives her a small nod in agreement. “I’m never going anywhere. Promise”

“You better not or I’ll hurt you!” she chuckles.

Tim laughs, a mischievous glint in his eyes as he looks at her with a brow raised, “Oh, yeah?”

“Mhmm,” she nods as she shifts again, this time moving to be on top of him as she straddles him, knees pressed onto the bed as he realizes what she’s up to and catches her by the wrists, flipping her over in a swift move.

“I do love a good challenge.”

They laugh as they start to wrestle each other for a moment before Tim’s lips crash into hers and Lucy completely melts into him. Now that she knows his taste, knows his touch, it’s all she craves. She didn’t realize just how much she wanted needed him until a few hours ago when they discarded their clothes and stumbled onto her bed. A moan leaves her lips as his lips roam down her body, it’s absolute bliss and she’s unsure how she ever went about her life without Tim Bradford in it.

Attack on Titan Guys and Their Lovers

I've been working on some AOT fics and decided I'd post my ideas for their ideal lover to keep me motivated to work on their fics....

warnings: fluff, angst, language

contains: Eren, Armin, Jean, Connie, Levi

Eren

Mikasa. Sorry, don't make the rules...but...It would be a soldier like Christa (before she was Historia). They met as cadets and Eren admired her selflessness. It pisssed him off that someone so kind and gentle determined that to help as many people as possible, she should join the Scouts. She truly believed her death would aid in humanities battle.

It shocked Eren at how quickly she jumped in the face of a titan to save another soldier. And, when Eren turned out to be a titan shifter, she didn't treat him any differently.

"Eren, I don't care about killing anyone. I just want to see the sunrise every morning beyond the island."

"Then I'll make sure you can."

Armin

Ya'll be sleeping on this man's potential partner. This is one of my favs...

Commander Erwin had a daughter in her last year of training in the Cadet Corp when her father died. She learned that Armin was saved over Erwin, and decided, "yo, I should know the man that was worth more than my dad because that's wack."

She's very brutish with her words like Erwin, but it's what Armin needs to hear. Whenever he freaks out about not being the right choice and is insecure because he doesn't know what to do, she's right there to reassure him that even she would've chosen him over her father.

"I don't know what to do! I just...It should be Erwin standing here."

"Don't waste my dad's breath. Stand up and think, Armin."

Jean

I once hated this man and now I'm his hype woman so...here goes

Jean needs someone not tainted by war. Sure, he probably saved them when they were being chased by titans. He was their hero. But he saw that fear and that determination in their eyes and he didn't know what possessed him when he made them promise to never join the military.

Sasha and Connie walk up on him one day while he's sketching and they ask who he's drawing. He just grumbles that it's his imagination and slams the notebook closed. That's when he realized he had a little crush. That's also when he decides to hunt them down and he stumbled upon them working as a medic in a makeshift hospital.

"I got a serious injury."

"Huh? Where?"

"My heart."

Connie

I will forever and always die on the Connie deserves all the love in the world because have you seen him? Heard him? This is another fav idea:

Connie. Scrawny cadet Connie met her the first day of training. She was strong and sly and always winked at him and when anyone mentioned it, he'd brush it off. But for the life of him, he couldn't figure out why she, smart and witty, would be attracted to him, Class A Idiot. It annoyed him how much time she spent with Reiner and Bertolt, but at the end of the day, she'd always hang out with him.

When Reiner and Bertolt revealed themselves atop the wall and asked Eren to join them, she stood motionless. Pale face. Clenched fists. And when Reiner and Bertolt revealed themselves, they revealed her too. She escaped with them.

During the attack of Liberio four years later, she was in such a bad mental state that Marley officials had already decided a date for her titan to move to another warrior. They had to wait till the Festival was over, but all the plans were upturned when she was taken along with Eren and Zeke in the airship when Sasha died.

"Oh yeah, the idiot will fall in love with anyone?! I'm not that much of an idiot!"

"I'm sorry."

"Sorry? Sorry? Sasha and my family are dead and my mom's a titan and you're sorry? I can't fucking wait till we're back and someone eats you."

Levi

This is above and by far my fav... enjoy

There wasn't a soldier alive faster than her. Fitting, since she was on Erwin's squad, with Miche, the strongest soldier. Their mission to take in the rats from the Underground was successful, and she was ordered to teach Levi, Isabel, and Farlan the ropes of ODM gear. Which proved useless because they were too prideful for their own good and the first scouting mission came too soon. When he crossed the gate to the walls, she smiled back at him and he saw the birds and grass and sun reflect off her eyes before he looked down at the vast land for himself.

When they both died, Levi was lost. She was the only one who showed an inch of kindness when she hugged him then and there on the battlefield (of course Miche stopped Levi from attacking everyone first). She told him to hold onto his memories and that's when Erwin stepped in.

When Erwin was promoted to Commander, he promoted Levi to squad leader and she was on Levi's team. He confessed to her, and her alone, that he could not read. After a little laughing, she taught him how and stayed by his side in all meetings and wrote his reports until he had a hang of it.

By the time the titan shifter had joined the Scouts, she was a squad leader in her own right. After Petra and his squad died, he found comfort in her again. Fast forward to the day Erwin died. How else could Erwin convince an entire army to ride to their deaths if not sacrificing himself and another strong pawn? It was between her or Levi, since Hange was focusing on the fight inside. They all knew who needed to live.

She was found hours later aa a pile of broken and ripped bones gasping through a dry mouth. He stared at her face. She wheezed and coughed and her wide eyes wouldn't stop moving back and forth. The golden sun blared into them and Levi collapsed on the ground. He'd failed her on two accounts:

he didn't get the fucking beast titan and he wasted the titan serum on Arlert.

"Is that you, Levi?"

"Yes."

"I can't see a thing."

"She's suffering," Hange said with tears dripping down their face, "if we even attempt moving her..."

"Leave. Everyone. Get out of here."

"I wish...I wish I could see the sunset. It's about that time, right?"

"The first time I saw open sky was in your eyes."

"Did we win?"

Levi punched the ground. He punched it again and again until his hand bled. She coughed. It sounded like a screeching eagle: full of misplaced air and urgency.

Greek/Roman Pantheon Headcanon Voices

Ok, so after having much retconning headcanon thoughts, I’ve decided to make up a new and improve list of some headcanon voices that I had in mind for each of the Gods from both the Greek and Roman Pantheon if they were to appear in SpongeBob SquarePants.

The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon | S1E3 Thoughts

⚠️ SPOILERS AHEAD ⚠️ do not read below the cut unless you’re okay with spoilers

Positive Thoughts

I’m writing this like over a week after watching it so forgive me if I forget some stuff

Anyway… Daryl hot

I loved the Demimonde night club!! The vibes were super fun. I’ll be honest, I was very skeptical about the night club when I first heard about it, but I think they pulled it off really believably.

Loved the use of the catacombs. It’s so cool that the night club is actually located underground in the catacombs, too.

Daryl being absolutely done when they were talking about using the pigeons… so good

Laurent is pretty cute when he gets all happy seeing that photo of his mom 🥹 I like when he excitedly shows Daryl the photo

Isabelle seems so real and raw to me especially in this episode when she freezes up when the walkers show up. I love that she is having a real human reaction (fear). I feel like some people would call her “weak,” but I love it. It’s realistic because even those who are experienced with walkers would sometimes freeze up and get scared. It’s only human

Sylvie and that guy (I forgot his name sorry) are cute together… 👀 I hope neither of them die lol

I love Daryl’s perspective with wanting Laurent to be treated like a regular kid. I think it makes sense for him to want that for Laurent, and he’s right! I don’t think he should be treated like the messiah, but then again, Isabelle and Sylvie actually believe it, so I understand where they’re coming from too

Daryl saying “fuck this guy” about Quinn… I nutted 😮‍💨

Negative Thoughts

Again, don’t read if you can’t handle me being potentially a bit petty and complaining about stupid shit

Laurent is annoying me again. I just kinda hate the whole “I’m so smart I know so much” know-it-all stuff. I KNOW HES A KID but still. I’m allowed to find him annoying ok. And lowkey the fact that everyone thinks he’s so special bugs me idk why lol

Kinda wished they could’ve utilized the catacombs a bit more but maybe they’ll do that later idk

Neither Positive Nor Negative Thoughts

The pigeon thing… some are speculating that it was hinting at Daryl thinking about C*rol. Yeah I don’t subscribe to that belief

hc + erwin for levi !

the wings of freedom were never something he wanted. the mps, the survey corps, the interiors –– they're nothing. they don't know travesty. they don't understand the fact of suffering underground, having to buy your way to the outside world. of only having one giant sun spot to bathe in where the rest is darkness and lamps and the damp smell of soil around him. they don't know because they don't care about the underground. it's a lawless cesspool of bribes and crime, and levi fits in just right there. he trains under kenny, becomes feared, and makes his own type of family. furlan and isabel. two people who look up at the sun spot and want out. and he can't blame them –– he wants it too. he wants to feel the sun on his skin for real. maybe some day they'll have enough to get out. until then, all they can do is keep stealing and keep living.

lovof comes around and gives them a job they can't refuse. as he's hurtling through the air and seeing just how far he can push the survey corps, his eyes meet erwin's. even in that moment, with all the vigor and anger that races through his body, he feels something. something that blooms underneath his ribcage and tries to reach out. something that wants.

he tries to forget that when a blade smashes into his knife and a large hand is wrapped around his wrist. when his face is pushed into the run off puddle, he thinks he hates him, that it shouldn't be a problem killing him. but then he kneels. he kneels before him, an underground crime lord, and smiles. he sees potential. he sees levi for more than he is.

the mission is doomed and he knows it, but he keeps face. he keeps putting off killing him, because some part of him likes the challenge. it purrs in his chest and blossoms, over and over again. he likes seeing the knit in those bushy brows. he likes seeing the frustration that curls in the snarl of a lip. he challenges him in a way that no one in the underground dares.

lovof can wait a little longer.

because of his hesitance, because of his preening of being valued, he loses everything. he watches isabel's head roll. he watches furlan get bit in two. and when he tries to kill erwin again, he loses all sense of self. it costs him everything.

so he follows what he knows. he follows erwin because there is a promise there that he can do good. that he can make the titans pay. and it's better the devil you know.

he's careful. he's valued. he's an asset. he flinches away from the people who want to call him a hero. and the entire time erwin doesn't waiver from him. he doesn't pull his horse back. he rides up next to him and chats and makes it seem so simple.

he kind of hates him.

it's not until after a few more expeditions outside the walls and a few more times of nearly watching his formation fail that levi realizes he'd rather be beside him than anywhere else. it's strange; he has attachment issues. he doesn't get close. it reminds him too much of kuchel, of watching her lay dead in that bed. it reminds him of mastering the underground and kenny walking away when he still needed him. part of him fears that if he blinks, erwin will too. or he'll be eaten by a titan. that asshole would go and do that and they both know it.

smith is foolish –– he thinks like a politician, always ready to take the extreme measures and the blackmail route before anything else. levi is his attack dog. he is the one that's set out, blades blazing, and eyes steely. levi is the one that growls and they all run, all think that erwin is unhinged for letting him out of the underground. he kind of likes it. being feared is an emotion that he knows well.

but smith looks at him and sees potential, sees loyalty, and if he cranes his neck a bit to look him in the eye when he's praised, he'll never admit it. he'll never admit the fact that his chest cracks open every time erwin gets so much as a scrape. will never admit that he brings food to his office because he knows that erwin will get caught up in paperwork and will forget to do something so mundane. he doesn't admit it because if he does, then he has to admit that without him, he doesn't know who he is.

who he is is breathed in hitched gasps, fingers wrapped around parts of him that he hadn't thought were possible, lips that sear and burn and a throat that whimpers. who is is honed into stuttered breaths and don't stops and love you's that feel like they are intoxicating him, leaving him dizzy and happy and he knows, knows, that he doesn't want anything else. he wants to curl into the desperation and the adrenaline surges after expeditions, wants to scatter erwin's papers all over the floor of his office if it means he'll put his lips back on his neck and twist his fingers in his hair.

he'll do anything for erwin and erwin knows that. it's calculated in careful eyes. it's a premonition that threatens to choke him of air.

it's why he can't breathe when erwin tells him his plan in shiganshina. why he feels raw on all of his nerves. why he looks at him and wants to fall to his knees, wants to beg him to reconsider. because erwin may be fine with sacrifice and leaving, but he isn't. if erwin's gone, levi doesn't know what he's going to do. he doesn't know the person he is without him anymore.

he only tells him to do it because he can see the tiredness in his eyes, that need to not make a decision for a chance. it chokes him and when he's out of sight, hot tears burn in his eyes as he makes his way through the titans. the rage he takes out on the beast titan isn't for his fallen comrades. it's for erwin.

and when he lets him go on that rooftop, when he watches death take him, he is hollowed out from the inside. he is a shell. he doesn't celebrate the brats and armin and having another titan. all he can focus on is the body that he puts in the house, wrapping the wings of freedom around him. all he can focus on is the way his knees ache when they hit the floor, how his body shakes when he screams and cries for the first time in a very long time.

and when he returns again, there's too much clean up –– he can't take erwin back for a proper funeral. it takes another time, and by that time, there are only bones to retrieve. he's careful with them, delicately wrapping them all up inside the wings of freedom, tries to ignore the way that his eyes are sore from the tears that don't seem to stop. he rides into the wind with them on his back and hopes a titan comes for him. he thinks this time maybe he can lay his own blades down and let the others handle it.

he buries erwin somewhere behind his office, somewhere in the shadows where he won't be disturbed. he has a make shift stone monument put there, dragging each one by hand. it doesn't feel like enough. it feels like too little for such a monumental man.

he doesn't leave the spot that night. he sleeps pressed up against the stones.

he feels everything hollowed out within his soul. he has done so much to ensure that one person lives. that humanity would be saved because of him, and it's cost him everything. he doesn't know if it's worth it. he doesn't know if it will ever be worth it.

but as he settles his head on smooth stones and feels the trail of salty defeat trail down the bridge of his nose and to the dirt below in the moonlight, he knows that erwin is at peace.

and he hates him for leaving him all alone.

Never Sass a Demon

This is a Mr. Hopp's Playhouse tickle fic requested by @sparklydetectiveearthquake. I'm happy to do your suggestions, but please put them in my ask box. Hope you enjoy!

__________________________________________

"Words cannot describe how disappointed I am in you, Hopp."

The rabbit stood before his boss, the Entity, whom was scolding him for his recent failure to claim Ruby's soul.

"I apologize, sir." Mr. Hopp bowed his head, a scowl forming on his face.

"You couldn't even claim the soul of Esther, and now you've lost to a child who can't even be out after dark! Is that laziness, or are you just bad at your job?" The lord continued.

"To be fair, sir, neither Bo or Stripes could get Esther's soul either-"

"That was 50 years ago, Hopp, that was then, this is now."

"Then why the hell would you bring it up?" Mr. Hopp whispered.

The Entity arched his eyebrow at the comment, but let it slide.

"I recognize that it's been a while for all of you, so I gave you the easiest possible task to help, and you failed!"

"Sir, I exhausted all possible means. Shape-shifting, mind games, I even-"

"Silence! If I was looking for excuses, I would've asked for them." The Entity slammed his fist on the arm of his chair, "You should know better."

"Well maybe if you'd stop loving the sound of your own voice and listen to me, we'd actually get somewhere in this conversation!"

The Entity turned his head to his bunny underling, glaring at him with his piercing yellow eyes.

"Excuse me? Mind repeating that?"

"Oh, you couldn't hear me? Maybe you should retire, then, your hearing's going."

"Listen, I don't know where this tone is coming from, but I do not appreciate it."

"Oh, so now you're talking to me like I'm a child? Y'know if you want to play father to someone, go find Isabelle."

"I am your overlord, and I will be treated with respect."

"Oh, I did make you mad? It looks like it!"

Then, the Entity stood up to his full height, and the rabbit's ears dropped as he just realized how much he'd just fucked up.

"Run."

And run he did, straight out of the room and down the halls of the strange cavern castle they all resided in. Morphing into his spider form to gain speed.

But he could only stay in that form for so long before it drained him. Soon enough, he'd worn himself out. Hopp entered his and the other plushes' bedroom, attempting to hide underneath his bed.

"What'd you do this time?" Mr. Stripes asked, the tiger was laying on the couch.

"I-I may have mouthed off to him a bit..." Hopp whispered, still fearful for his life.

"Really? I'd expect that from Stripes." Ms. Bo walked into the room.

"Hey! Ugh. Well, if you're not dead yet, then you'll be fine." Stripes said.

Wait. He was right. If the Entity really wanted to kill him, he wouldn't have been given a running start. What was he planning?

Suddenly, he felt a clawed hand wrap around his ankle, dragging him out from under the bed.

"WAIT! WAITWAITWAIT IM SORRY!" Mr. Hopp begged.

The Entity held him upside down, before throwing him onto the floor and pinning him down with magic.

"Oh, you're not sorry yet..."

Suddenly, Hopp felt claws digging into his sides, and he was thrown into fits of high-pitched, British laughter.

"AHAHAHAHAHAHA! WAHAHAHAIT! IHIHIHIHI'M SOHOHOHORRY!" Hopp cackled, trying to escape from his restraints.

"This should teach you to watch your tongue with me."

"AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! PLEHEHEHEHEHEASE! AHAHAHAHA!"

More claws then joined in, digging into his armpits, clawing at his belly, and wiggling their fingers on his waist.

"EEEEEHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! NOHOHOHOHOHO! AHAHAHAHA!" Hopp lost it, thrashing about, attempting to lessen the ticklish sensation.

While this was going on Mr. Stripes and Ms. Bo just stood and watched the show, smug smiles on their faces as they watched their bunny ally get wrecked.

"Oi, you two! Come here and help me or you're next."

With that the two quickly got up and started tickling Hopp as well. Ms. Bo at his armpits, and Mr. Stripes beginning to squish the pink paw pads on his feet.

"AAAAHAHAHAHAHAHA! YOU ASSHOHOHOHOLES! DOHOHOHOHOHON'T HELP HIHIHIHIHIM!"

"Keep it up, Hopp, see where it gets you."

This was absolute torture! But, Hopp had to admit that it was also kind of fun. Certainly better than having the stuffing ripped out of him.

He'd rather die than admit that, however. But, everyone else could probably tell.

Suddenly, Ms. Bo's claw had gently scratched behind his ear.

"EEEEEEK! NOT THERE! NOHOHOHOT THERE! AHAHAHAHAHAHA!"

"Oop! We've found his sweet spot! Haha!" Ms. Bo giggled at his reactions.

The Entity had long stopped tickling Hopp, just standing there and chuckling at the trio's antics.

"AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! EEEEEK! STAHAHAHAHAHAPIT! STAHAHAP!"

"Are you going to sass me again?"

"NOHOHOHO! I PROHOHOHOHOMISE!"

"Alright, alright, he's had enough."

With that, all of the tickles had stopped, Mr. Hopp falling to the floor, gasping for air that he didn't need.

"I.....hahahate you all......n-never do that agahain."

"Eh, sure you do." Stripes laughed.

THE END.
