head in my hands (<- she is thinking about the dreamcatcher dystopia and apocalypse trilogies)
with dystopia it's like. (scream) the world is so full of hatred and vitriol and every time i am reminded of it, it seeps further and further into my veins and i'm worried it may consume me. the witch hunts are constant and ever worsening, and all that ever comes from them is more contempt and more regret. what is this poisonous masquerade all for. does anyone else hear this, i'm calling out to you, i'm begging for relief and for catharsis. i need this to reach you, i need you to hear the cries of the people who are suffering. i'm shouting alongside them. (boca) do you speak to your mother with that mouth. would she be proud of the things that you're saying. look around you - the angels are dying and the casualties grow with every spiteful word. sometimes kindness starts with silence when all you want is to fight fire with fire. my heart is pierced for you again and again, and i don't know how much longer it can be like this. i want to help you, i want to let you breathe again and give you relief from the harsh words that have strangled your lungs. i want to make this world better, and i want it to start with us. (odd eye) the world is broken, this is not a fairytale. utopia has never existed and it never will. do not believe the sugarcoated lie of perfection because it is impossible to grasp. the world is dark and you will not find what you're looking for if eternal peace is what you seek. open your eyes to reality, and you will make it a better place - not by dreaming, but by doing what you can.
and then with apocalypse it's like. (maison) our home is dying, our planet is dying, our people are dying, but i feel so detached from it all. i need to come down to earth, i need to keep pushing for change in every way that matters. your conscience is drying faster than the droughts plaguing our land, don't you see that we need to do something about this. please someone fight for us - the task is enormous and the stakes are daunting, and i'm coming down to rescue you but i can't do it alone. you have to help save yourself. (vision) the world is a scorched-earth battlefield and we are its foot-soldiers. we must press on and fight now that we've come this far. everything is painted in shades of moral gray, but we must act decisively. i am reaching for your hand in the trenches, i am sending a message to you, i am giving you a vision. do you copy, have you clasped my soot-stained hand. the work is hard, but we must reload and keep going. join us and fight alongside us. i am not asking, i am not begging - there is no time for either. ([reason] i am with you always, in war and peace, in hatred and in love. you are why i fight. i have spent years being beaten down, and you have, too, but it is your companionship that buoys me, brightens my darkness, makes this world worth it all. you are my reason. don't let me stop fighting.) (bon voyage) we have fought the good fight together, my friend. the war wages onward, but our assignments have changed, and we must part ways. i will carry every lesson you have taught me within me. the battlefield lies fallow until the footprints recede. the flowers are starting to bloom again and the colors are coming into focus. a part of me will always be drawn to you even as i leave you, even when you are long gone. travel well, my friend. may our battles not be in vain and may we both find rest. i hope i will see your face in peacetime.

In Good Omens S1 God says: it starts, as it will end, with a garden.
Now, this could be refering to either the story of the universe, or the story of our demon and angel, or maybe both.
On my first watch i thought: oh, so maybe the las scene will be in a garden.
It wasn't.
On my first watch of S2, i thought: oh, we will have our awesome final scene in a beautiful garden with our two boys (using this as a gender neutral term of endearment for these two beings) having their happy ever after.
We did not.
So, basically what i'm saying is: please, let S3 end with Crowley and Aziraphale in the beautiful garden of their South Downs cottage.
Like, i'm not even asking for a kiss here, not even for them holding hands. Just give me Crowley standing in their garden, yelling at their plants, and Aziraphale sitting on their backyard bench, watching him, smitten, with a book on his hand.
They don't even need to be touching. Hell, they can be 10 feet away from each other, cause they would have a big fucking garden, with at least one apple tree-
My point. My point is, give me the bloody happy ending with a garden.
Please.

Something that has been a very pleasant surprise for me watching Fmab is Ling's character. I knew I would love him the second he showed up (Mamoru Miyano's characters are always my favorites and I knew I'd love him) but I never thought he'd be like this. I mean, of course, the character seemed to have way more depth than it looks like the first minutes he shows up, but still. I was not expecting him to care so much and so deeply for his country and his clan, but he literally does everything for them. And it's not even from a prince's perspective, he genuinely, in the most human of ways, cares about his people and his friends and he might be annoying to Ed because of wanting to get something out of him, but he grows fond of him and ends up caring about him. I don't know where his character is going yet, and I hate (I love) how many plot twists this show has because I can't predict anything, but for now? His character is just perfect for me. There's just something about what he tells Greed about friendships being bonded by souls that just fucking killed me because he appreciates human life and the value of love and connections. My first interpretation of this guy was "ah, yes, typical ENTP. Cocky. Selfish. Probably has a sad background and covers it with laughs. And he cares about people but puts logic fir-" and now I'm like ?? On episode 44 I think? And this guy is extremely ENFJ to me. And I just started analyzing shit without anybody asking me about this but! In my defense, I'll say he's my favorite character and I love him a lot.

NAAAHH, BECAUSE I AM LOWKEY OBSESSED WITH THIS PANEL *gremlin noises*
In all seriousness, Lanyon allowing himself to be at peace whenever he was alone with Jekyll lowkey portraying how he let his guard down around Henry kinda makes me wanna scream??
ALSO, THE WAY HE RESPONDS TO WOMEN AS 'THE FAIRER SEX' AND HENRY TO LOSE INTEREST IN THEM BECAUSE OF HIS UNINTENTIONAL CRUSH IS BRILLIANT
New Page didn't disappoint

I hate to say it but the npd community on here is so fucking bad. it enables folks with the disorder/questioning to get Worse rather than recover in a way that benefits not just the people around them but themselves and, in addition, frankly a lot of the rhetoric aimed at non-narcs does nothing but groom people to be more accepting of abusive/otherwise intolerable behaviors under the guise of "it's because of a disorder, so I can't help it"
