Sanji falls in love with Usopp. It's actually not quick, but painfully slow (he wishes he had found out sooner, actually). Except the realization comes in the form of a strong, powerful wave he cannot avoid and he ends up drowning in emotions he isn't ready to process yet. He knows it isn't bad. Loving Usopp could never be something bad. Usopp could never be something he regrets. And yet, he doesn't feel... Ready to act upon his feelings. It's not that he doesn't feel worthy of Usopp reciprocating his love, Sanji just thinks he isn't the man he ought to be yet to be worthy of loving Usopp. If that makes any sense. So he waits. He waits, staring at Usopp from afar. When he grins at Chopper while they fish together. The way he holds hair ties in between his teeth while he gets his hair out of the way to work. How his fingers move gracely around his brushes as he paints. And Sanji also stares closely (never close enough) because fate has granted him (or maybe it's just the way things are now, thanks to everything they've gone through, and it has little to do with destiny and the universe although Sanji would love to blame it on that) the possibility of at least being Usopp's best friend. So they are close, but it's never enough. And they're together, but so, so far away from each other... Sanji's heart aches. When he gets to have a very drunk Usopp resting his head on his shoulder in the middle of a party. When the sniper relies on him whenever he's scared instead of going to mosshead the way he used to do at the very beginning. When Usopp and he get to spend the night alone. Alone and together and never close enough. And their hands are almost touching but they never do. And Sanji stares at Usopp's lips and he knows the other is doing it too, but they never move. If he does- If Usopp does dare to move, Sanji will move away. He knows it's hurting his sniper. He wishes he could tell him it's hurting him too. Sanji doesn't even know what he's waiting for, anyway.

But falling in love with Usopp feels kind of like trying to find the All Blue, right? A sudden, freezing cold. Soaking wet in emotions he can't quite describe but he knows are everywhere. He knows it's true. He knows it's there. Out of touch but not out of reach. He knows he can find it. Feel it. Drown in there. Someday. But in the same way, he isn't ready yet to find the All Blue, perhaps he just has to wait until he's ready to properly love Usopp. He isn't asking the sniper to wait for him, he could never do that to him. But he silently begs against his will for Usopp to realize already how much he means to him and how soaked in love he'll be once Sanji becomes the man he wants to be for him. Sanji finds the whole 'you can't love someone unless you love yourself' thing kind of dumb because he hates himself but he could never love Usopp more. Well, he does. Every day. He loves him more every day and the sensation just keeps growing. But the point is, despite everything, he loves Usopp. So maybe whether he likes himself or not isn't the issue here.

Loving Usopp feels kind of like a dream. Sanji has dreamt about this before. Falling in love and living his own fairytale type of romance someday. In the same way he has dreamt about deep blues with shades of green and seas entirely occupied by sea creatures of all kinds that used to only exist in the deepest corners of his heart. So maybe if he- If Sanji manages to find it, he'll be able to love Usopp too. It's stupid. It's a dumb thought. But it keeps him going. Not only because it encourages him to become stronger to achieve his dream, but because it helps him never lose hope in it. And maybe... Maybe if Sanji can do something as impossible as finding the one thing everybody told him didn't exist, then being in love with Usopp will start feeling more like a reality he deserves and not just a dream he can only brush the surface of.

So he makes this promise to confess once he finds the All Blue.

Maybe it's just a cowardly move from him, needing something like that to gain the strength to say how he feels out loud. But that's exactly why he needs it. The reason why he isn't ready yet and why he will be once he finds the All Blue.

Sanji is sure he will. He has never doubted the existence of his dream. But it's such a distant thought sometimes that when he actually does find it... Well, fuck. He doesn't exactly know what to do. It's one fish after the other. All from different seas. Different kinds. Colors. Tastes. Noises. It's captivating and overwhelming and he doesn't want to cry, but once he realizes where they are, he can't help but grin widely as his soul pulls him closer and closer to the water. Wanting- Begging him to live there. He wonders if it's possible to drown without even swimming in the first place because he has the sensation of both his heart and lungs being filled with water in the best of ways.

They let him dive in there and he doesn't think twice about it. Sanji doesn't go in slowly. He has been waiting for this for decades. He needs it. And the sensation sort of resembles everything he thought about but- But it's different. And he focuses on the fishes and the sea and colors and trying to remember to breathe but... For a split second, it is. Because now he can't get something out of his mind. Something he had forgotten with the thrill of actually finding what he had been looking for. Sanji feels so... Complete. Powerful. There's still a long way ahead of them and this is just the beginning of something new. And Sanji finally feels at peace, after so long of battling with himself and who he truly is. Finding the All Blue isn't just achieving his dream, but also his soul. His true self. His heart. And right now the one who should be holding it doesn't even know how much he loves him in the first place.

Sanji wants to put that aside and focus on this. He wants to go into the water and stay for a while and start thinking of all the dishes he could make from this part of the ocean. He'll tell Usopp. Just not now. Not when he should be focusing on this. Not when everybody else is around. Not in front of the crew. He could just-- Take Usopp somewhere nice. Cook the first dish ever made with ingredients from the All Blue. Only for him. He could. He could.

Or that's what the old Sanji would've said. At least the Sanji from the day before finding the All Blue.

Because now Sanji is swimming back to the ship, with everyone's eyes on him to see what he has to say about his dream. They pull the rope up and he doesn't even climb into the ship, he just holds onto the railing, right in front of Usopp, and tries to catch his breath after this. He knows they're looking. Luffy's grinning at him, begging for him to explain how it is down there. The others surround him with pleased, proud expressions. They're all waiting for him to say something, and Sanji is just capable of looking at Usopp. Maybe he has been staring for too long, because he can feel the sun drying the water off his skin, and some strands of hair falling onto his forehead despite having both of his eyes free of the bangs.

He doesn't think twice about kissing Usopp, the same way he didn't think twice about jumping onto the All Blue.

It's deep and sudden and hard and neither of them was expecting their first kiss to be this way. But Sanji pulls Usopp closer by the back of his neck, burying his still-wet fingers in the sniper's hair. Usopp makes a surprised but excited noise, but he doesn't even have the time to respond to the kiss, because Sanji is already moving away. And it's not enough. Sanji realizes too that it could never be enough, no matter how much of Usopp he has, because he'll just want to get to have more of him the same way he desires to go deeper into the sea. But it's perfect for them, to be right where the water and the sunlight meet.

Sanji thought he would be more nervous about this, but it's so much. Too much. He can only smile at Usopp and move the tips of his toes against the ship out of excitement, his hand's knuckles turning white as his grip on the rail tightens, and his other hand resting on Usopp's cheek. He knows the others are looking, he just doesn't care now.

Usopp stares at him, astonished and trying to look for something in Sanji's eyes that he apparently can't achieve without asking. "What was that for?" And he laughs giddily because there's just no other way to react to what just happened to them.

"You're a dream come true." He sighs, feeling his heartbeat against his throat like it's about to burst. And he just... He can't stop smiling. "I'm sorry I made you wait, I- I had to find something first." Myself. Because they both know he isn't talking just about the All Blue.

The sniper nods, and he feels himself about to start crying. But he won't. He knows both Franky and Nami probably are, but he won't. "And how's that going for you?" He throws a glance at the sea, which Sanji follows again with excitement. His whole body shakes. Oh, god. Usopp can't help but laugh, taking Sanji's hand on his. "You want to go back, huh?"

Sanji doesn't hesitate. His whole body is begging him to go back into the water. "Please." He looks at Usopp as if he needed permission in the first place. "Again?" And it makes the sniper's heart melt to see such joy and passion in the man he loves.

They start lowering Sanji again, and Usopp leans over the railing to speak. "But we need to talk about this later!"

"Of course, mon trésor!" He yells the second his feet touch the water. "Once I finish with this you'll be my top priority! I'll do everything I haven't done these past years! I promise!"

The second he goes into the ocean again Usopp can't help but narrow his eyes at the shadow underwater. "He's not going to come back soon, right?"

Nami scoffs at that. "You're lucky if he comes out of there at all."

And if Zoro says "Maybe he turns into an ugly fish and starts living there to stop bothering us all" Usopp pretends not to hear him because he knows that if Sanji stays underwater, he's willing to wait forever for him to come back to the surface and fulfill his new promise.

Kind of really inspired by this fanart that I love deeply

#i got inspired suddenly #i love them so much #i just want sanji to find the all blue pleaseplease #i wish i could write more tags but i am tired #also this is probably my favorite sanji fanart ever yes #one piece #black leg sanji #usopp #sanuso

Is this what Happiness is?

- hey so I haven't seen an interpretation of the bar scenes in Half that I fully agree with, so I wanted to throw my own two cents out there into the void and pray that it makes sense !!!

so, in the bar scenes in Half we see what I interpret as a hangout with old friends (or, hangout with old friend + his wife.) These scenes used to be the biggest piece of evidence for the cheater theory, but now that that's been debunked by the man himself, I have a new way of looking at them

~ before I go any further, I just wanted to say that I'll be calling the brown-haired woman whiskey for simplicity's sake

In this scene, Kazui turns to look at Whiskey, saying the lyrics:

"laughing together, side by side, this distance in our relationship is misleading me, is this what happiness is?"

With my guess (cuz that's really what it is there's no evidence for it) that Whiskey is the Bartender's wife i think this scene is Kazui being conflicted with what he's been told is true, that marrying Hinako is "true love", versus what he feels is true, that marrying Hinako has brought distance into their relationship.

He looks at Whiskey, a woman happily married, and wonders why his relationship with Hinako isn't like that.

~ shout out to @prisoner-000 for the following screenshot

in this post he points out that Hinako and Kazui's rings are silver in Cat, not gold like they were in Half, yet Bartender's ring colour stays the same.

For the sake of this writing I'm going to go with the first meaning they put out, that Bartender's ring is gold because his marriage is genuine.

But wait!! I hear you ask. This is Half and Kazui's ring is still gold in Half!! EXACTLY MY FRIEND!!

Kazui's ring IS still gold in Half because at the time of these scenes he's still fooling himself that this relationship is good, that he will eventually garner real romantic feelings for Hianko.

"laughing together, side by side, this distance in our relationship is misleading me, is this what happiness is?"

Remember this lyric that plays during the Whiskey -> Hinako scene. You know what other scene in Half this lyric reminds me of?

laughing together, side by side,

this distance in our relationship is misleading me,

is this what happiness is?

He's beginning to doubt if what he believes is true, he's beginning to believe the feelings telling him something's wrong (and remember, the scene right after this one is when he confesses (?) his secret to Hinako) ARE infact true, and that maybe the logic he's been following for so long has a couple holes in it.

I think these scenes are meant to show Kazui gradually realising that his relationship with Hinako will not work out. It just won't, no matter how hard he tries.

He's able to laugh together and talk with Whiskey because she's his friend, yet he can't do the same with his own wife? Even though, according to his gold ring, their relationship is supposed to be real and true and genuine?

#thats not even getting into the gay theory implications btw #bar kazui staring at audience kazui with the lyrics “all these memories and you / only if i could erase them”#because his crush on his friend literally haunts him and his relationship with hinako (the green apple)#confessing his love to his friend “just so its out in the open” because he so desperately needs to get it off his chest #most likely having his feelings not reciprocated as his friend his married and staring at his wife #who then transitions into hinako / wondering why he does not feel the same happiness with her than he does at the bar #because he's lying to himself and he's lying to her #he *knows* that their relationship is not happiness and yet he hides in denial #because it's not like he will be able to find his happiness anyway as his friend is already taken #sorry #this doesnt rlly make sense and i'm aware of that i wish i could beam what im trying to get at into ur head #unfortunately its nearly 11pm and when i was brainstorming this idea i had a nap and NEVER WROTE MY THOUGHTS DOWN (biggest mistake ever)#someone with a bigger vocabulary pls come and pick this up and explain it better thank youuuy #anyway just hope you get what im trying to say #thats all #sorry for the ramble in tha tags but also this is my house so #milgram #kazui mukuhara #hinako mukuhara #milgram theory #ig i never know what to title these

how long do you think it takes Kate and Valeria to day ‘I love you’ to their s/o’s? love ur stuff fyi!!! 💚

Hello! Thank you for liking my stuff, I hope this is enjoyable to you as well! I think it would take the both of them quite a while to say it!

When do Valeria and Laswell Finally Say “I Love You”?

Valeria: It would take her a while to say it. I mean, once she’s with you, she’s already smitten, but she says “I love you” in different ways that aren’t just saying those three words. Valeria courts you with lots of gifts, that much is true, but the closest thing you’ll ever hear from her that resembles a “You have my heart, I love you more than the sun loves the moon, than the ocean loves the land” would be her spending a day with you where she isn’t spending copious amounts of money on you. But that’s not what you asked. Valeria will tell you that she loves you when you’re feeling insecure since she never says it, but on her own accord? It would likely be a year or longer into your relationship, on one of those nights where the two of you are lying in bed together, just talking about your lives, what you’ve been through and how it’s shaped you as people. Just venting your worries, voicing your appreciation for each other and how you’ve helped one another. It’s during such a night, when you’ve gone quiet for a moment, that Valeria would hold you close and tell you, in a voice softer than what you’re used to normally from her, that she loves you.

Laswell: Like Valeria, she shows her love for you through different means. While she may be a gift giver as well, she also shows you how much she loves you by doing anything you may or may not ask of her. From chores, to walking your pet, to cooking you some stew when you’re sick. Laswell doesn’t say that she loves you from the get go either, it would take her several months to a year for her to say it. But when she does, it doesn’t seem like a special moment to anyone else. You’re probably hanging up your freshly washed clothes while she’s sitting at the table, a cup of coffee in hand. Laswell would get up, give you a kiss on your cheek, and tell you that she loves you so very dearly. She was overcome with adoration for you during that moment and needed to show you that she loves you. It’s afterwards that you get a lot more I love yous from her. Not on the daily still, but they would be more common. She will always, and I mean always, accompany her I love yous with some form of affectionate gesture, regardless of whether it be a kiss to your temple, a hug from behind, or a small lovely rose she found in a flower shop. You will always be taken care of and loved.

#cod #cod x reader #valeria garza #valeria garza x reader #kate laswell #kate laswell x reader #neither of them are too vocal when it comes to showing they love you but that's alright too #because one of them would watch the world burn down to warm you up with its flames #and the other one would break the world apart just to find you again in one of its crevices #they're not the most romantic people verbally but they'll always make sure that you feel loved and cared for #writing about the girls really makes me yearn for a girlfriend again!! where is my gf!!! I want one!!!#it's so sad that I've never met another lesbian irl either 😔 that is so sad I deserve a cute girl to hug in return for that #the yearning has been especially strong again as of late. especially since I saw a commission again yesterday #now I wish Valeria was way taller than me so she would look hot while looking down at me. but alas she's probably the same height as me #no amount of cute gir's love manga could ever cure my yearning I feel as though it's terminal 😔#will I continue to be cringe in the tags? absolutely! I've got another request for one of the girls. a really fun one too #looking forward to writing that one!#I'm gonna post three times today so I can get out all the requests again and be left to me imagining giving a cute girl a hug

free day / the museum

#chreonweek2k23 #chreon #chris redfield #leon kennedy #resident evil #starishsky draws #I didn’t explain this well on Twitter but I can throw up in the tags here #so this is like when you go to a museum and see a pretty painting and you have to sit with it for a while bc it stirs something in you #like so much care in the piece. the expression. the technique. you wonder abt what the artist was thinking abt #and uhhhh. it just kinda sticks with you forever.#I wish I could say that a piece like that comes to mind right now for me but I can’t think of one tbh #however I have been really into the artwork of yuming li recently #the way they use blue and this bright orange really fucking gets me. I love it #anyway. Leon museum. all of the other paintings are previous Leons I’ve made #one of them from this yesterday actually

figured i'd do this again..bit early i guess..

#to cheer me up.. i feel bad atm.. these things don't even make me feel very good tho bc i'm such a narrative/sketch-based artist..#but Proper Beautiful Finished Pieces are what grab attention and look good at the end of the year all neatly lined up lol.....#so looking at a “yearly review” where i can only choose 'the best image of the month' (??) is like...What have i even been doing...#i did a month by month look back on twt for myself instead..but even that doesn't express the quantity of comic-based stuff..#that i do put a lot of time/heart into..but alas i feel bad bringing even them back..RTing/reblogging my own art simply feels bad lol..#AND WHY IS IT ALL B&W...trying to accept that i LIKE doing that and sketching and scribbling..not like i'm trying to like..Get Artist Job..#this year was so profoundly lonely at times bc i spent all my time drawing instead of socialising and trying to find friends....#please please please have achieved more of your dreams in the future so you can look back at 2023 and think..#It was good that happened so that it got me further to the future. Or whatever i guess.....................#regardless i did have a great amount of fun drawing and improving this year and dwelling deeply & heavily on witch hat atelier.#art-wise and emotionally....march july & september were the best months i think..AUGUST WAS SO WEIRD SUMMER IS SO EVIL ALWAYS.#thank you very much if you are reading this for enjoying & leaving nice tags & such like <3 i've realised how fulfilling that is to receive #really keeps me posting stuff here instead of keeping it all to myself in my head #i wish everyone in this world could have a safe and happy end of year. i wish living in this world were easier

hello again everyone i'm putting on my tinfoil jester hat & passing out Hefty grains of salt. its batshit theory time!

in short: i think Julie is gonna get violent & might end up killing someone - or she'll at least try. and i'm pretty sure something terrible is gonna happen to her.

in long: hoo boy. strap in

first off, i'd like to say that i love womens' wrongs And rights! all of this is said with utmost affection & respect for Julie. i love it when characters do terrible things, its interesting and so tasty for the story and their development <3

second disclaimer: most of this is just based off of what we have / know as of now. which is, admittedly, not much! so despite having short arms, i may be reaching very far! i'll get the based-on-knowledge part of my thoughts out of the way before getting into the more abstract I'm Just Making Shit Up At This Point part (educated guessing, yk yk!)

not sure where to start so i'll begin with what starting this line of thinking - flower symbolism. I've gone a little bit into it in a previous post from a while back (where i just made observations about the neighborhood map), but i'll restate the relevant parts. there are two flowers in the neighborhood with greek myths attached, and similar ones at that: the hyacinths outside of the Post Office, and the sunflowers outside of Frank's house.

most people know the hyacinth myth! Apollo, while playing metal frizbee with his (male) mortal lover Hyacinthus, Apollo's thrown discus bounced off of the ground and accidentally hit Hyacinthus in the head, killing him - then Apollo turned the spilled blood into the hyacinth flower. in another - popular - version of the myth, the wind god Zephyrus was jealous and blew the discus off course to kill Hyacinthus. as for sunflowers: Clytie, a nymph, was in love with Apollo and grew jealous of his relationship with a princess, Leucothoe. Clytie informed Leucothoe's father of the relationship, and he buried Leucothoe alive as punishment. Apollo turned his murdered lover into a sunflower. two flowers attached to greek myths about Apollo falling for a mortal, and that mortal gets murdered by a jealous non-mortal.

next, I would like to bring attention to This Concept Artwork from 2021. now i'm not gonna use this as a definitive "oh this exists so it must mean-" but there are always elements of concept work, especially Canon concept work, that sticks or can allude to themes or information that will be revealed later in the story. concepts are concepts for a reason - it means there's a solid idea that's being explored in depth, most times for use (especially that deep into the story crafting).

specifically, right now i'd like to look at the type of flower Julie is holding. pansies. normal ones + the primary fucked up pansy. pansies are symbols of love - both romantic and platonic, but predominantly platonic. it can also symbolize nostalgia, thought, admiration, remembrance, and can even be used as an "i'm sorry" flower. in victorian times, it was often used to represent forbidden/secret love.

stick with me, i'm getting to the point i promise

now, another thing is how much of Julie's character (meta-wise & in regards to the WH show as a production) is centered around love. her house is the "cutest" or most feminine one in the neighborhood, and it's downright infested with hearts, from the windows to the bushes to the chimney. she exists as Frank's foil, and it's almost definitive that she was meant to be Frank's love interest (there's just. so much evidence that there's no way that's not it). and just look at her! she looks like a love interest! if WH was a real show that i sat down to watch, i'd see her and immediately go "oh, ok, that's her base role"

this contradicts with what we know of her character - Julie seems big on platonic love, loving her friends, but other than that? she very much steps around what her house/character design is trying to say. she's hopscotching right over what the production wants from her. the only thing she kinda sticks with is the whole flower thing

but. but but but. i wonder! after the update, I'm pretty confident that the neighbors are influenced by the "script" and the workshop, even if they're not aware of it. see: the difference in how they act in the "recovered media" (where they behave more like they're characters playing out a bit, their dialogue has no natural lulls and it just sounds like a (really good) script) vs the 14 audios & the phone calls (natural dialogue, they seem more layered & like actual people instead of just characters, there's no set shenanigan - they're just doing their own things). and we can assume that the latter audios are from the neighbors off-script off-the-air.

despite this, they still somewhat try to fill their roles. the question is: how much of that is authentic, and how much is them still feeling that pressure to perform? just like how We as people feel pressure and expectation from societal rules/norms, even if we're not conscious of it. like, say... kids growing up thinking being queer is wrong, even if they've never been directly exposed to / made aware of homophobia/transphobia. We fill in the absence of being told "this is right" with "it must be wrong", and We act accordingly

so apply that to sapient puppets who were (again, most likely) made with set relationships, dynamics, and character details in mind. they're meant to be This Way, even if they want to be That Way, and that internal "programming" has to conflict, at least a little. like how I've seen Clown mention that homophobia will/may be a theme, and the only way i can see that happening among puppets who have never been directly exposed to it is if the above happens: they feel pressure from something they're unaware of. expectation from a "higher" plane of existence. as above, so below.

OKAY NOW WE'RE GETTING TO IT I PROMISE! blend this all together into Frank & Eddie catching feelings. they weren't meant to fall in love. they're not supposed to be together. it's - from the perspective of Playfellow & society (in the time period WH was active/created) - wrong.

Julie is supposed to be with Frank. Frank is supposed to be with Julie. in a way, they are together - they're best friends. they're foils. they were created to compliment each other and click. in the media audios, they're almost always together. if one of them is in a scene, so is the other.

so what happens if Frank starts to pull away? if he starts to spend more time with Eddie - what if Julie feels like she's being pushed out? what if she asks Frank to come play, only to be told he already has plans with Eddie, and if Julie tries to join in, what if Frank tells her no?

if it were me in this situation, I think I'd start to panic a little. everything has always been the same - it's always been Frank and Julie. that's how it's supposed to be. Frank and Eddie, well that's just - that's just wrong! and if, at this hypothetical point in the story, things are tangibly starting to degrade/go wrong, Julie might cling even harder, panic even more.

you see where I'm going with this? what i meant with the flower symbolism and what it could point to?

their world is falling apart, and Julie's one constant - Frank, her best friend, her grumpy rock - is pulling away. for Eddie. the mailman. and so what if the jealous "lover" takes action? Julie can make things go back to normal. she needs Frank, and in her mind she's losing him, but she can't lose him. she can't. and maybe that little whisper of expectation that she can't hear but feels nonetheless, fuels this fire. it makes her feel justified, makes her feel the need to act and "correct" this. maybe if she gets rid of the distraction, Frank's love and attention will be hers once more.

i mean, people do insane things when they're under that much pressure. from current probably-horrible events, a loss of control in their own life, their closest person seemingly distancing themselves, subconscious pressure from societal expectation. especially when it comes to love - platonic or romantic. w/ Julie, i'm pretty sure it's platonic in regards to Frank. though she is bi, so you never know! could be both!

and maybe it won't be about Frank & Eddie, if any of this turns out to even a little right. maybe there's a factor I'm not considering or haven't seen yet. but i really do think that there are things pointing to it.

like yeah, the Concept Art linked above. the caption saying "liar", the specific species of flower, Julie holding it over her mouth as if keeping a secret, the hammer. not sure if the person standing over her is her primary puppeteer, an abstract, or something else (it seems cracked?) but that's not what this theory is about!

then there's the flower patch - both behind her in the concept art, and the one behind her house on the map. it's striking me now that the two look very similar. they have mostly the same flowers, even. blue/yellow/white/orange "daisies", some daffodils, what i think are roses (it's hard to tell specifics on the map). an odd choice to make them so similar (unless it's coincidence!).

when I first saw the patch, my immediate thought was "holy shit is that a body dump?!" bc it's oddly green compared to the rest of the map, it's placed at a noticeable distance behind Julie's house - as if it's supposed to be "hidden", and it's the lushest spot in the neighborhood. now, to provide a counterargument to my own claim: it could be very green because that's how things are shaded, it looks like it's at a distance from the house bc the map is 2D, and its the lushest spot bc Julie's all about flowers - also, i doubt flowers would spontaneously grow since we can assume none of them are real. it's a puppet world of props. but who knows.

(and okay this might or might not be relevant but we can assume Julie is the one who made the chalk drawings on the path, right? i think there's a spiral in front of her house. just making a note of it.)

and there's just how much "pressure" seems to be on Julie compared to the others. she doesn't match her house. she doesn't fit her "role" the way she's meant to. AND OH AND I ALMOST FORGOT - by the swingset, there's now a bowling ball and what looks like red scissors. idk about you guys but i associate scissors with Eddie. he's all about crafts, after all! now i'm really reaching but hey? murder weapon? Julie does seem fond of bowling balls... that's a perfect bludgeoning weapon to have on hand (in abundance!)

in conclusion, i just think Julie has major potential to do some deliciously fucked up stuff. in fact, i hope she does! it could be handled/done in an absolutely fascinating way, and could have intriguing consequences.

who knows, maybe i'm right about her trying to get rid of Eddie (not out of malice or anything, just fear & pressure), and there'll be a whole thing where he keeps on coming back, completely unaware that she tried to off him, bc he's a puppet and it's probably really tough to kill something that wasn't really alive in the first place. i mean, in This Observation post i made about some new map secrets, there's a strange window shine on the Post Office door that could be spelling out either "nexus" or "new us". that plus the apparent extra hands/faces behind the door... Eddie is quite accident prone. who's to say he's not used to being replaced by himself? it's not like he'd remember. or is that the reason his memory is bad? holy shit wait - no wait this is a tangent. sorry. this post is about Julie lmao maybe i'll make a different post for this Eddie Thought i just had bc ough. ough...

and also, before anyone tries to come at me - because there's always people who twist words to Start Shit or misinterpret/miss the point - i'm not saying that Julie is like... homophobic. or hates Eddie. or is a "jealous crazy-" just. yk? and if you think that, maybe reread the post. or take a reading comprehension class <3

AS FOR THE SOMETHING TERRIBLE HAPPENING TO JULIE. this is based on Two things and also Vibes. this section will be mercifully short compared to the rest of this clusterfuck of a post

so in the Livestream Trivia doc compiled by @/theneighborhood watch, yes i'm referencing this again sorry, there's this tidbit:

that, plus This Artwork, which features Julie (they're her shoes!) standing at the edge of an apparent chasm (the edge of the set, i assume) paints an interesting hypothetical picture. maybe she wanders a little too far and falls off the edge of her world. maybe she discovers something and Wally has to do something he doesn't want to do, but "needs" to. hey, who knows. maybe she is gonna hurt / try to hurt someone, and in an attempt to save them / stop her, Wally pushes her - either accidentally or on purpose, either way the end result would be the same. now I'm just pulling things out of my ass so lets move on lmao

then there's the Unknown Record in the website's media section. i actually recorded the audio and sped it up - i'll post that video later - and it seems to be an excerpt from Alice in Wonderland. the only part of it i've been able to clearly pick out is "Alice found herself falling down.... down... down..." followed by, presumably Alice speaking - who's high pitched voice reminds me of Julie's. so that's another point in the Julie Goes Bye-Bye Via Rapid Descent theory. or just goes temporarily missing! it could be that the only relevant part of the above trivia tidbit is the "falling down a cavern", and not the "never seen again" part. but it could. be. both.

though! though. Clown has stated that if all the neighbors were to take on roles in Alice in Wonderland, Wally is the one who would be Alice. which follows his direct connection to the spiral/eye pit, and the phrase "down the rabbit hole". so it could be either or. it could be both! it could be neither! this is all speculation, which brings us to....

the end! we made it! i hope you're still carrying your Hefty grains of salt! soon you'll be able to fill a large chicken-shaped shaker with it all!

#ok ive been feeling a little Clearer upstairs lately so i think this is actually written the way i wanted #the brain fog lifted just enough to be insane on main!#sorry about all the flower symbolism #i just think its there on purpose! why choose those specific flowers! why Draw specific flowers in a fictional puppet world #where not even the animals are real species! theyre just generic/fictional 'butterfly' 'beetle' etc #and how eddie and frank's main flowers are practically the same story just in different fonts #how julie is 'meant' to be frank's lover. the meanings of the pansy. the flower patch.#welcome home speculation #wh speculation #wh theory #homebogging #'i connected the dots' you didnt connect shit 'ive connected them'#i stg im gonna eat drywall....#and hey. maybe this is all just wishful thinking #i love it when fictional women do bad things. its catnip to me!#we'll see we'll see #wow i actually dont have much to say in the tags. i put it all in the main post. this is a rarity!#i just think it would be interesting if julie clashed with frank/eddie #that could be downright Fascinating...#well whatever happens ill enjoy it! im im right - awesome! if im wrong - awesome!
