Mizuki and Date though like. Imagine being 8 and your parents are filthy rich and going through a bad divorce. Your mom treats you like shit, lashing out at you, hitting you, saying she wishes you were never born all because you were behaving like a child. Your dad is more comforting, but he doesn’t do anything to stop the abuse and he spends his time invested in a completely different family, a girl who you love and look up to but he loves her more than you and it fucking shows. Then your dads new friend, some fucking bachelor in his late 20s, is just like "wow you guys are the worst fucking parents ive ever seen" and next thing you know your dad is sending you off to live with him. And it’s just a massive kick in the head cuz you go from a rich lifestyle to living in some really shitty tiny ass apartment with this guy who’s clearly never been around a child in his entire life and he doesn’t know how to behave and does a really bad job of censoring himself like he has a bunch of dirty magazines that he can’t hide very well cuz it’s literally a studio apartment and also he talks to himself sometimes, it’s really weird. He doesn’t even have the slightest clue what he’s doing
And he’s the best parent you’ve ever had
Because fuck, it all really hurts. You have to cope with having never received any love from anyone, and with the fact that your parents clearly don’t want you and can’t even be bothered to send you with anyone even kinda responsible. And this guy has a scary job with crazy hours and you don’t know anything about him and neither does he. But still, he never once hits you or tells you you’re not allowed to cry. He just gives you space and doesn’t push you to feel any sort of way about him. And sometimes, he’s even kind. He makes you some stew, even though it’s a bit chunky. He lets you sleep in the bed and takes the couch for himself, even though he complains about the massive back pain he’d never trade his spot for a second. He pays attention to events at your school and gives you your favorite stuffed animal when you make good grades, even though you called it ugly. He gets worried sick when you come home with bruises and puts on a goofy voice and trains you to defend yourself and you develop some highly deadly skills and even though it’s really abnormal, he buys you a bench press so you can get stronger. There’s this distance there, and you feel really weird caring about someone who you aren’t related to, but you find yourself wishing it was meant to be like this all along, that maybe, he’s secretly your real dad and he loves you like his real daughter
And when you say "I’m back" he says "welcome home"

Part Four
When you returned from your trip to the store, Tom was nowhere to be found. He wasn’t in the living room, not in the kitchen, nor in the bathroom.
“Tom?” You called out.
You heard shuffling coming from your bedroom, so you walked over to your door. When you stepped inside you saw the top of his head peeking up from the other side of your bed. He was sitting on the ground with his knees pulled up to his chest.
“Tom? Are you alright?” You asked him, concerned as he looked quite terrified.
He sighed in relief. “You're finally home! I was so scared.”
“Why? What happened?”
A bunch of bad things came to mind of what could have happened. What if the government found out you were hiding an alien in your house. What would the government even do? Hide him away in area 51 or would the United Nations handle this? Either way, you grew increasingly worried about the reasoning behind the alien’s fear.
“Well, firstly, there is another species in this household! It made a scary noise at me and glared at me with its teeth! Also, there is something banging on the house making a low rumbling noise! I have hardly been on this planet for one of its days and it is terrifying!” Tom spoke surprisingly fast.
You let out a sigh of relief. No government officials were hiding in your bathroom.
“You surely mean Nico, right? My cat? And the other noise you heard was probably just the air conditioning unit turning on. Everything is fine.” You reassured him, holding back an amused smile. Perhaps you shouldn’t have left him alone, you thought.
Tom stood up with the blanket around his shoulders. “I am unsure of what this term ‘cat’ you speak of is, but if my context serves me right, you are referring to the evil menace that almost killed me!”
Although the situation was undoubtedly funny to you, you couldn’t help but feel sympathetic for the alien. He had gone through a lot in the last 24 hours and you were sure that adapting to a new planet was difficult.
“Nico is not evil. He’s a sweetheart and completely harmless,”
Tom just shook his head at you like you were the alien on his planet.
“Anyways,” You started, “I got you some clothes.”
You held up the bag so he could see. You laid out the boxers, the pants, and shirts for him to look at on the bed. He stepped forward to see, but then looked at you in shock.
“I am meant to wear that?” He asked incredulously.
You looked at him with a strange look. They did wear clothes, right? What else as he supposed to wear? But, then you thought of different era’s clothing styles on this world and suddenly someone from a different galaxy having an entirely different taste in clothing didn’t seem that strange.
“Well, yeah. What do you usually wear? You do wear clothes right?”
“Yes, I wear clothes. However, they do not look like that. Mine appear much more comfortable and loose compare to those things.” He said while pointing to the pants.
Who knew? A high maintenance alien.
“Why don’t you just try them? I got a few different sizes. We can return the ones that don’t fit tomorrow and you can pick out some clothes of your own.”
The alien reluctantly agreed. You instructed him on how to put on the clothes and gave him his socks and shoes. You really went out of budget with the shopping, but you figured it didn’t matter since you were returning them the next day. When you got him dressed as comfortably as you could, although he thought every bit of it was uncomfortable, you gave him a tour of your house.
You started in the places he had already been to. The living room he seemed most comfortable in. He told you that he played around with the TV and was oddly shocked at how simple it was. He thought our technology would be more advanced than what it was, but he was questioning our entertainment choices. He didn’t get the point of watching TV, but he enjoyed seeing real humans and what they looked like. All the different colors, sizes, and shapes, he said, he found intriguingly beautiful. This warmed your heart to the alien.
He asked about everything. The lamps, the couches, the pillows, the rug, the coffee table, the coasters, the mirror, the little figurines you had scattered around. He wanted to know how everything worked, what materials made it up, and what the purpose was. His favorite thing by far was the record player you had on a stand in the corner. You and he listened to different music from different decades as he asked questions about instruments, artists, and genres.
His curiosity of your world, only made you want to know more about his. But, you refrained from asking him questions. You wanted him to feel comfortable and if that meant answering a billion questions about the living room alone while waiting to ask yours, then so be it.
“I just wanted to express my thanks to you,” He said as you entered the guest bedroom after showing him around the kitchen and the bathroom.
You turned and smiled, intrigued by his sudden appreciation. “For what?”
“I know at first I was tentative, but you allowed me into your home and bought me clothes and you are surprisingly calm and collected throughout all of this. I can only imagine that you are bewildered by the situation.”
You smiled. You felt as though not enough time had passed for the alien to trust you already. When you were in high school, making friends was not easy. You were a bit of a loner, and if you did find someone who liked you enough to not walk away immediately, no immediate friendship was formed. You had to work hard for your friends, but with Tom that didn’t seem to be the case.
“The situation is pretty strange, but I’m really happy to help.” You pause, looked down and sighed, and then looked back up at him. “I know this sounds strange, but I’ve been waiting for something exciting to happen my whole life, and this is pretty cool.”
He grinned at you and then walked into the guest room where he began to ask questions once again.
“I assume this where I am meant to sleep.” He asked while pointing at the bed.
You nodded your head. “Yep. This is your bed for the time being. Is it alright?”
“Not exactly like the ones from back home, but it will be just fine. Thank you.”
Finally, you let the curiosity get the best of you. “What type of beds do you have at home?”
You both sat on his bed. You with your legs crisscrossed and his with one leg under him and one dangling off the bed. The feeling was very casual.
“Our beds are more… flexible. The best way to describe them is to imagine floating on liquid, but without any effort and without getting wet.”
“Well, that sounds awesome.”
He laughed at your awed face, and suddenly, like he finally realized your obvious curiosity about him, he asked “You’ve been answering questions for me all day. Do you have any other questions you would like to ask? You must be curious.”
You leaned back on your arms and thought. What should you ask? There were a million questions running through your mind, but what to ask first?
“Do you have a family?”
He smiled at this question and said, “I do.”
“Tell me about them.”
He shifted so his body was facing yours. “I am the oldest of my siblings. I have three brothers, Haridias and Samdion, who are as I believe you refer to them ‘twins’ and Padxon, the youngest. They are my best friends. Them, and my cousin, Marcadias.”
His face was gleaming as he spoke of his brothers, but when he spoke of Marcadias his face faltered and he stopped talking.
“What’s wrong with Marcadias?” You asked carefully, noticing it was a sensitive subject.
Once again, he gave you a look over. Although he seemed so trusting of you earlier, this subject was obviously something he didn’t share with every person he met.
He sighed and said “He’s sick. Very sick.”
“Oh.” Was all you said, because you didn’t want to push him.
“Anyways, they are my best friends. My parents are quite strict sometimes, but nonetheless supportive and love me.”
You smiled, noticing the hasty subject change. “They sound lovely.”
His adorable smile somehow grew larger.
There was a comfortable pause as you thought about what to ask him next, but then it hit you.
“How do you speak English?”
You knew that when he first woke up he didn’t know what language he was speaking and this had seemed very odd to you. How could someone not know what language they were talking in? That was absurd.
His eyebrows perked up at the question. “The people that originate from my planet are very special. Because we are the biggest planet in our galaxy, we have visitors from other planets and galaxies all the time. This has somehow built up a defense mechanism that allows us to speak any language that is needed in case we travel to another planet, or someone from another planet comes to us. This is also why we change forms. You saw me while transitioning, yes?”
You nodded and he continued, “Our natural forms are much more comfortable, but our disguises help us blend in and understand the place we are at better.”
“Everyone on your planet can do this? What else can you do?”
He shrugged and said, “Not much, but we do shoot laser beams out of our eyes.”
You stared at him in shock with your eyes open wide and mouth hanging low. He stared at you in all seriousness making you believe him full heartedly, that is… until he started laughing.
“I am only kidding, earthling. But, it was fun to see your reaction.”
You wanted to get mad at him for tricking you and calling you ‘earthling’ (what was up with that?), but you couldn’t deny how funny the situation was. Here you were with an alien from another galaxy that’s cracking jokes left and right.
“Ha-ha.” You laughed dramatically until joining in with sincere giggles.
You continued to talk for awhile, about Earth and Maxmirius, but mostly just trying to figure out this crazy situation. He wanted you to explain what it was like to meet an extraterrestrial for the first time.
Throughout your conversation, you laughed a lot. More than you had in a long time. And you realized for the first time, that not only are you excited that you have an alien in your house, but you are excited that it is this alien.
As the conversation died down, you noticed that it was about time for dinner and that you and the alien hadn’t eaten all day.
“Are you hungry?” You asked.
“Yes, I was wondering when you would mention food.” He perked up excitedly. “So, what type of delicacies does Earth have to offer?”
Thanks for reading! Next part will include a very interesting deal that will be made between Y/N and Tom!

Bunni’s Rune Factory 4 Headcanons Even More So
okay MISC CHARACTER HEADCANONS AND THINGS
* first and most important one: arthur and dylas consider porcoline their adopted father just like margaret does, and they all see each other as siblings. Its never actually stated in canon but IT HAS TO BE TRUE OKAY * I wish Illuminata, Bado and Pico could have been marriages in dlc or something. Thats not really a headcanon but I wanted to mention it. * ALL THE GAY JOKES ARE NOW NOT JOKES BUT CANON. That is my headcanon. Stop teasing me with ‘lol isnt it somehow funny that they seem to be gay but arent’, and give me more actual being the what they are. Pico has a crush on Dolce, Doug and Dylas have a crush, Margaret is totally crushing on Forte, imagine a universe where all of that gets to be canon and not just a ‘joke’! And imagine if these characters that’re implied to be gay or bisexual could get to be gay or bisexual with regards to the protagonist too! If dylas, doug, margaret and forte could be marriageable no matter which gender you picked! Maybe if you could have some options that’re exclusively gay too? Perhaps pico is the lesbian marriage and I dunno.. bado could be gay because he’s kinda bara? XD Tho I think it’d be neat if frey could marry him too, i just wish he had a route in general. * Also i wish we could have been able to help Arthur track down his mother again and reconcile with her. It was mega heartwarming that you could help him discover that his mother loved him all along and only left because of outside cricumstances involving the controversy of arthur being the product of his father’s affair with a commoner, but still we dont know where she is now and whether she’s happy. I like to hope maybe she’s out there still alive somewhere, and maybe she collects newspaper clippings hearing about her son’s adventures as super businessman prince! And thus someday she hears that he moved to selphia and married frey the commoner, and maybe this leads to her deciding to come back and confess why she really left. And also maybe the marriage to the protagonist could help society get over the whole predjudice and stuff and arthur’s mum could regain a better reputation in the eyes of the nobles. or maybe she never does and she just ends up moving into selphia and never being able to return to her home city, but still its all ok cos at least she can hug her son and meet her new grandkid. * My thoughts for the guardians who didnt get much said about their past lives! For Amber the game says she ‘wanted to fly with ventuswill’ and thats at least more than we know for Dylas, but still its very undeveloped. My headcanon is that maybe she was a pilot? or like.. lived in an era before airships were actually invented, and was someone who dreamed of finding a way to make it possible. And her notes were discovered after she vanished, and ended up inspiring the person who ended up inventing the first flying machine! And even though now she can fly on her own wings, it could be heartwarming for her to find out about this and have a bit of conclusion to her life. I also headcanon that Amber’s relationship with Ventuswill was maybe more like an adoptive mother-daughter thing? I think it would fit with how strange and monster-like Amber thinks sometimes, even though she must have been human to begin with. I mean maybe thats just how the magic works and if you’re a weirdo who loves eating raw potatos and climbing trees to steal honey from beehives you become a butterfly?? But I think it could work if maybe she was an orphan who was raised by the native dragon and ended up a little ditzy because she hadn’t interacted with humans much until nowadays. like, maybe this was a period when ventuswill was mourning the first person who became a guardian (what order did it happen, actually...?) and she became more solitary instead of having this personal presence in the town. She flew off to watch over selphia from within the forest cave instead, and found an abandoned child by chance. And then once Amber had grown up she was always trying to drop her off at the town and make her live with her own kind, but amber would always find her way back. And ventuswill was like ‘aww shit no i ended up loving someone again’ and couldnt stop amber from finding out about the guardian ritual and doing it too. And like... the only reason ventuswill went back to the town was because now corrupted-amber is the boss of the forest area and ventuswill cant break through her magic to get back in. So amber’s sacrifice also helped convince venti to open up to other people again. *eternal sobbing* * And my headcanons for Dylas’s past are less developed, but I was considering maybe the idea that he was the last one to be guardianized? And by this point it had become seen as a tradition by the people of selphia, and they would like.. look for a human sacrifice, rather than it being someone who willingly did it. It was a very dark time in the town’s history. It was nearly the end of the town not because it was in danger, but because if they’d gone through with such a horrible plan it just wouldnt be selphia anymore. Those people wouldnt be worth protecting, it probably would have caused ventuswill to leave and never return. So anyway I was thinking maybe Dylas was some sort of weird loner fisherman on the edge of town that everyone hated, so they considered him the one who should be sacrificed. And he was so lonely and suicidal that he wanted to agree to it, just because he wanted to die and didnt care how. But then ventuswill put a stop to the angry mob and rescued him, and he regained his faith in people and found his first and greatest friend as he got to know her. So in the end he performed the ritual out of his own free will, after realizing she was the one who would be saved by his sacrifice. And she was haunted by the guilt that by saving him she’d inadvertantly caused him to go down the same path anyway, just for different reasons. And then Dylas is just way more happy nowadays because whatever reason the town hated him is now gone, and he’s seeing how kind and wonderful its become, and he’s never had so many friends before!! And he can still go fishing and hang out with venti, and even meet three other people who also loved venti enough to die, and bond over their super sadness together. Oh! An idea! Maybe Dylas was part of a different race of nomadic humans who travel in caravans, and the town treated him so shittily because they were racist fucks? I was just thinking how that could maybe be a reason why his monster form was a horse, if maybe horses were a highly respected animal in his home culture, and he’s all estranged from it and stuck living in a foreign land with a bunch of intolerant bastards. And it could be extra heartwarming cos nowadays he’s living in the future version of this town that is even more foreign to him, but nowadays that racial tension is less common and he’s actually been welcomed as one of them. And maybe he could have extra quests added to his rather short romance route, cos he could be trying to learn whether his clan actually survived and still exists nowadays. And then have a heartwarming reunion with the grandchild of one of his siblings maybe? look, everyone else in the batchelors got a big sad questline, why cant perfect tsundere horseman join them?? IT WOULD BE THE SADDEST OF ALL THE SADS * also it would be really cool if when you married the guardian characters your child could inherit monster powers! I’m still gonna forever headcanon that they do, even if they dont get any of the appearance traits. It would be so cute if noel/luna could poof into a tiny baby unicorn and dylas is just sobbing with pride :3 * also headcanon: I wish Leon’s fox statue guardians could move into the city after you marry him, and be like loving uncle babysitters to your child! the excuse would be like ‘we need to protect the next in the proud dragon priest lineage’. And maybe once they leave the temple they could be stuck in de-powered tiny pet forms of cute? * Oh and a possible headcanon that the name Leon is passed down from father to son in Leon’s family. That’d explain why that temple is called Leon Karnak. Unless it was renamed into a memorial to him after he sacrificed himself? But it could be cute if your kid with him was Leon Jr/Leona and had adorkable fox statue pets and was a prodigy champion in the buddy battle festival and made their parents proud. I HAVE MANY HEADCANONS! * Gahhhh I really dont know who I should marry! Arthur was the first one I dated and I really like him though I wish you could have a friend route with him where you still help him with his backstory problems, I dont feel like I like the ship as much. And then Leon’s backstory was so sad I feel guilty not marrying him, but Dylas’s marriage route was so BAD that I feel guilty not marrying him! He didnt get as many scenes as leon, so I wanna marry him instead so i can fly off headcanoning more scenes!! But gahhh leon!! I think I ship leon with female protagonist and dylas with the male one :P I might make two saves to try both. And a third save just to see what arthur’s route is like, though i still like him and female protagonist better as a brotp, yknow? Or maybe amicable exes. Or just people who dated once casually but didnt end up together. Or any way i could get the happy ending to his backstory stuff without having to date him, seriously why does everyone be backstory sad unless I date them?? Except dylas who DOESNT GET ANY SCREENTIME INSTEAD *pout* *....im gonna go back to the game and marry dylas aaaa * and everyone else * aaaaaaa * i just care so much about these characters * i think dylas might win cos marrying him also means my fave character porcoline becomes my father in law * i wonder if he’s at the wedding? that’d kinda confirm my headcanon dylas and arthur are like margaret’s adopted brothers. * I WANT EVERY FAM TO BE HAPPY AAA

Christine - CCCCC

I love the feeling I get after watching a good, well crafted movie. Said it many times before but when a movie can draw me in and keep me from studying or if anything allow me to still study it while still be able to enjoy the story being told me is very rare. While not always I do try to make sure that I only ever give a full rating to movies whom can do that to me, not all of them but I do aim to only give the full rating to those movies. 
So you already know I love movie, I love it so much I want to hug it. I love everything about this movie and no this is not the first reaction feeling that one often gets after watching a movie in the theatre. I just finished watching the movie for the second time but this time with the commentary because I wanted to hear their take on what it took to make this film and I love the movie more because how I think they wanted to present it was actually right, not to seem arrogant but it was more treat this person with dignity, respect, honesty and a spectacle. Sometimes when a movie comes out like this in a good way it is sometimes by the accident of the film maker who was just trying to patch together a movie out of thin air. I am glad this wasn’t an accident and this entire film was for the most part at least in tone and direction was as intended.
So many movies in this day in age glamourize the loners, “weirdos”, the people who are completely different from society and it’s often told it such a way where that person is the normal one while everyone else is weird. While I appreciate those movies and they are needed sometimes I do feel that while they show what its like to see how they see the world very few of them really like you feel the way they feel about being who they are and more often than not it is not easy.
youtube
The poster of this movie grabbed me right away, for Christmas my parents get me 100 dollar gift card for iTunes so I wanted to scour iTunes for some good movies. I am trying to buy less plastic and buy more movies online because its quicker and often cheaper this way. When I seen the poster I knew who Rebecca Hall is, such a gorgeous women in my eyes but not in the super model or sex symbol sort of way but grounded real way, that is often the kind of beauty I gravitate to though this movie has nothing to do with her looks that is just my opinion of Rebecca Hall. I remember seeing her in the movie The Prestige and as a guy I was more attracted to her than I was to Scarlet Johansson in that movie, that should say enough about me there. So her being the star of this movie interested me because I never seen her star in something before. I read the synopsis and then watched the trailer and my spider senses for a good movie went off like a siren. I decided to take a chance on the movie and I am glad I did.
This movie is based off the life of Christine Chubbuck, whom in the early 70s was a television news reporter in Sarasota, Florida whom.........I won’t spoil it. However it follows her life right up the actions that would make her story infamous in television.
I heard of this story before and what happened awhile ago but never really thought about it or knew who did it. It wasn’t until I got half way through this movie that I started to get really curious as to who this person was and what she actually did and when I found out it shocked me and it made me want to continue watching, not because I wanted to see it for myself but I wan’t to see how the film was going to present and finish her story. I am going to try my best to tip toe around not telling you the ending though if you just google her name you will find it anyway.
In this movie Christine Chubbuck is this woman in her late 20s who is very dedicated to her work, she wanted to be a straight edged news reporter giving the audience human stories that she deems to be worth telling. However there is only so much she can do as what stories she wants to do do not coincide with what the channel wants. With ratings low the station owners feel that the news needs to be spiced up and sensationalized more to grab more viewer attention to survive. Christine wants to be promoted and have more say in what she is doing but is unable to cater to the wants of the network. When she gets word that the owner of the channel is picking up another news channel in Baltimore and is looking to bring some of the staff where she works there she starts to try even harder to get the attention of the owner but working harder on good stories in order to get to be one of the few who go to Baltimore.
Christine Chubbuck with all the aspirations and commitment to her job has next to no time for a social life or a love life. Whatever time she is doesn’t spend on work she is either volunteering playing puppets for special needs children or she is at home spending time with her mother. She starts getting stomach pains and learns that she may need to get surgery but that surgery will make her unable to have a baby. Christine also has a crush on one of her coworkers who is the main new anchor, George (played by Michael C. Hall) and wants to have a relationship with him but doesn’t entirely know how to perpetuate it.
Christine is not exactly an outcast at work but she is considered one of the odd balls, the only one she has some sort of close ties with is with Jean who sort of works under her as one of the camera crew at the station. Though an odd ball she is treated with respect by everyone, she is not bullied or put down. The thing is everyone sort of knows she is having troubles it is just that they don’t really know how to help her on top of the issues they deal with on a daily basis.
There are a lot of things I love about the movie but I think I should start with that is that this movie I think treats not only depression but how people in general treat depression as a whole. I mean in our society just about everyone has something going on in our head, there are lots of people dealing with mental health issues but what makes it such a mine field to walk is that well there is only so much we can do for ourselves and only so much one can do for those around you whom you know are suffering. I like that this movie doesn’t really have an antagonist, everyone in this film for the most part at some point or another tries to reach out and help Christine and help her with her issue in their own unique way that they know and everyone has their own way of coping however its never been that easy.
I have been on both sides of this coin and maybe that is why I got completely connected to this movie. When I watched the movie through the perspective of Christine I seen myself in her with her coping mechanisms, the coping mechanisms, the over achieving to the inevitable see lets downs that perpetuate and feed the self hatred/doubt/depression going on. I see the constant self eating snake going on in her mind, you see her fight and try but you also see the things she is doing wrong and you want to go up to her and not only hug her but tell her to relax and tell her things will be alright. However I also see the side of those around her who try to help her but are unequipped to do so like we all are in some ways. I have been in the position many times of trying to offer help to someone obviously dealing with deep depression and offering my suggestions knowing that I am not helping at all and in some ways I may be making it worse, it is a shitty feeling to see someone suffering and knowing that no matter how you try its not working or making it worse.
This movie succeeds so well in allowing you to empathize with everyone especially after what happens takes place, you see how it effects everyone in their own way. A way I wish would be shown more when handling this sort of thing. By the end it makes you wonder what could you have done to make her not do what she did, what could have been said? Its not a easy question to answer and when you watch the actors you know they are asking themselves the same questions as anyone would following similar events.
The acting goes without saying in this movie, I found no weakness whatsoever with the acting to where I am astounded Rebecca Hall is not up for a major award this year. However it solidifies my stance of how shallow the academy awards and what not are and how they are really just a year self pat on the shoulder giving best of awards made by the major studios. While I may have not watched much of who is nominated this year I do feel this Rebecca’s performance deserves considerable recognition in my eyes.
I also love the attention to detail and the look of this film, it gets the 70s look down to a T right down to the grainy look of televised network shots. I just love the whole look, the colours, the music choices, everything fits so well in this movie and helps sell the belief that you are in the early 70s with their characters, you suspend belief and an imagine yourself part of that world. I was to tell art/set directors to study a film I would tell them to study this film.
That being said the directing is top notch which is funny because when I found out who directed this film it made me question whether I wanted to see this film. I took a chance on one of Antonio’s previous movies (Simon Killer) and while the movie wasn’t bad it wasn’t entirely as good as I hoped it would be. This on the other hand to me is the clear cut best of the two and epically awesome piece of work she should be completely proud of.
Think the main reason why I love this movie so much is because when I wanted to be a film maker this is the kind of movie I wanted to make out of the gate. While in film school I wrote this script called the Loner which is very similar in tone to this movie. I wrote it while I was trying to sort through my own depression which was becoming more and more public amongst my peers and teachers which was probably one of the main reasons why they never let me do it which sort of pissed me off and still does because after seeing the stories they approved instead with all due respect to them but my story was far better than theirs and more worth while. Maybe that is ego talk but I do feel that way. However when I wrote that story I wanted to spotlight the character (in my ways me) showing how hard/painful/lonely it is to be different in society, hard to connect with people, hard to fill the voids in your life, thinking you know how to fx things but withe unable or not knowing that those things you think will ‘cure’ you won't but also seeing other’s side of it and knowing that whatever they do can’t really fix it either and one just has to surf that tide and if they get not off the board they have to try their best to get back on and not let the depths of depression drown you. I gave up trying to want to make that movie and in a way it spawned the book i have been trying to write for years in The Goaltender though it has developed into something else entirely. I love this movie because I guess I look at it and see it as that is what my movie could have been if I was able to do it myself.
This movie reminds me of Taxi Driver in my ways and from the trailer you can tell that is where they were going in selling the movie. You watch this movie and you sort of know there is a car crash coming and you don't want to see it happen but you can’t look away, you sympathize with the character who will perform this infamous action even though you know what they did was not the right thing to do but you understand.
Bottom line is if you are a fan of movies like Taxi Driver, character driven dramas that are dark in tone, exceptionally well acted with a story worth telling despite its unorthodox nature I highly suggest this movie. if you are a Rebecca Hall fan then again i do think you NEED to see this movie, this is her best piece of acting yet. I love this movie, I am glad the story has been told and how it was told, I give it a full CCCCC not the Corey Scale.

One
My wrists hurt, inexplicably. Perhaps I slept funny, funny peculiar. Last night I dreamt of a cramped police cell, my hands folded behind my back. My eyes are glazed and the mountain of coffee cups perch precariously on my desk, ready to topple with the slightest of nudges. In my past life I was a rapist, or a traitor. Maybe I raped the queen, I definitely did something vicious and evil; it’s the only explanation for this existence. In this life I’m just a poor sap who ended up in the wrong job, with the wrong people, fantasising about tropical beaches and statuesque, tanned women serving me drinks in coconut shells. I talk to myself a lot. I used to wonder if I was unwell, but now I just blame it on the pills.
There’s a lady who often sits behind me. She’s mid-thirties, a couple of kids and a bored husband. She isn’t attractive but every time she leans over my shoulder to help me with an account I feel my dick get hard. She knows this; she plays to it, bending over in front of me and discussing her absent sex life within earshot. She knows I want to fuck her. I haven’t had physical contact with a woman since my girlfriend left me a lifetime ago, and because of that I will fuck my colleague at some point, probably in the toilets on a wet and windy lunch break. It’ll be disappointing and I’ll have to move to the other side of the office to escape any awkward exchanges. It’s the only reason I’ve abstained thus far, that I like my spot. Its right next to the window so I can gaze mournfully at people out on the street, free of gainful employment, begging for scraps. How I long to be in their torn and tatty shoes. At the very least they have a dog to keep them company, as much vitamin D as they need and the occasional rock of crack to see them through the night. I’ve got a five figure income, a pension I hopefully won’t live long enough to claim and haemorrhoids. I bring my own cushion into work; it’s a source of mystery and gossip throughout the office. Maybe one day before I leave I’ll show them all why I need it. Just drop my pants and give them a full uncensored view of my discomfort.
I’ve been here for five long years. That’s the same sentence handed out to drug dealers. I knew from day one I’d chosen the wrong career path. I would’ve made quadruple the amount I clear peddling coke to teenagers.
I lock my work station and walk to the toilet to take a piss. Some cretin I once asked for a lighter from tries to engage me in conversation as I unzip my fly. It’s unacceptable. I grunt and focus on emptying my bowels. There should be a sign on the door instructing people to shut the fuck up the minute they walk in. It’s a sanctuary, not a nightclub. If I wanted to talk to you whilst I had my dick in my hand I’d ask you out for a drink.
I sit back down, and as I do my boss approaches. If this place really is hell then she is the devil, dressed in Primark, attaching her action plans and personal development programs to her pitchfork and shoving them so far up my pained backside that I’m coughing up numbers and figures and pie charts all over my loafers. She wears glasses that magnify her wonky eyes, tiny little spongy balls that bounce around inside her malformed skull. Her hair is like straw, tied back to her head with garden twine. She has a lisp that grates on me so much I’d offer to pay for her speech therapy if she wasn’t such a cunt. The only thing I want to give her is a new super drug I’ve invented in my mind that makes her womb barren. I call her the lemming, on account of her being a small rat like creature. She tells me I was late for work this morning. I already knew that, I had a joint before I started and couldn’t tear myself away from the news. Some giddy little prick giving his smarmy views on the days current affairs is like opiates to me. She tells me to buck my ideas up, that if I’m late again tomorrow she’ll be forced to act, because it’s becoming too much of a regular occurrence. I nod solemnly, without saying a word. None of the words I would like to say to her seem appropriate in this setting. She leaves; I daydream about what it would feel like to sink a kitchen knife in between her shoulder blades.
My friend enters the building. He’s a charming, affable loner, perennially dressed all in black and with a penchant for Canadian electro-metal music. Everyone at the company thinks he’s weird, I consider him the only other person like me in a ten mile radius. He takes his usual seat just opposite mine, and smiles sweetly.
“Morning Desmond” I whisper. Our conversations are conducted at the lowest possible decibel level, so as to avoid anyone else interfering, or actually clocking on the nature of what we discuss, as more often than not the topics would be deemed taboo, or discipline worthy. We talk about a book I earlier recommended him, on a subject matter we both find deeply interesting. Desmond is what some might call ‘a troubled soul’. I’ve always found it offensive that the human race has an unwavering ability to categorise others into either good or bad. Sometimes it isn’t that simple. Desmond isn’t a bad person, but his thoughts are dark, a lot darker than your average young adult conjures. He isn’t particular good either, but he’s been the only consistent friend I’ve had in this place. He mentioned once before that he sees me as something of a kindred spirit, which alerted me to my own shortcomings.  Our lives have been parallel. Both lost our parents far too early, both mercilessly bullied throughout our formative years, both vulnerable. We turned out remarkably similar. But whilst my daydreaming can be on the verge of homicidal, Desmonds daydreaming is disturbed. When I introduced him to anarchism, he introduced me to the occult. We have a bad cop bad cop relationship, and it makes the hours pass faster. His voice is soft, unlike his exterior. A unit of a man, possessing a body built to bring pain and suffering upon anyone who should cross him. What was once a source of mental anguish is now a key component in his arsenal. He doesn’t suffer fools easily, and his weight and power stop him from having to. Even the lemming is scared of him, and leaves him to conduct his daily business s in peace. His eyes are wide as he talks about the book, about the things it’s taught him and, indirectly, about his plan. To the untrained ear his words are mumbled and indecipherable. I understand every garbled syllable, but the women that sit either side of him are clueless. They simply sip their camomile tea and talk to each other through him about Coronation Street. I’ve never watched the show but I know everything about thanks to Gillian and Mary, it’s like their porn. I imagine them masturbating to flickering images of Ken Barlows sweater vest, climaxing just as the credits roll, then it’s back to a cross-stitch art piece of a kitten chasing a ball of string. Then I daydream of their cold, dead bodies as I stand over them. Desmond put that image in my head weeks ago, and it’s been pretty difficult to shift. The thing about Desmond, the thing about him that intrigues me as much as it frightens me, is that he’s dangerous.
Desmond has been talking about his plan for the last eighteen months or so. It started as idle musings and has snowballed to its current state, not yet fully formed but fairly advanced. He speaks of it often, dropping it into any conversation he can, except for between working hours of course. This time spent making allusions to it without actually mentioning it. Not that Mary and Gill or any of the other ladies of a certain age would have any fucking idea what was going on even if he detailed it out to them. They could have Kim Jong Il sat across from them explaining his nuclear programme and plans for global domination and they’d still try to talk to him about whatever wank was on ITV last night. Still, he is whispered and careful. Though a friend, he frightens me. And though I should’ve tried to stop him, or alerted someone about his plans, I haven’t. If it makes me an accessory then so be it, I’m too tired and depressed to care.
The clock ticks over. It’s time to go home. I bid farewell to Desmond and walk through the automatic doors, passed the troll of a security guard who spends more time leaching at the young girls than he doors providing any kind of security, and into the pinkish glow of the autumnal night sky.

For no reason out of nowhere, I’m gonna ramble headcanons/how to combine the dub and sub into a better dub ideas for the second digimon movie, Hurricane Touchdown! Aka the one that was awkwardly stitched on as part of the first movie in english, aka ‘that one where lopmon is fuckin terrifying and also american’ (oh and I know its a nitpick, but to me it makes sense to call it the second movie instead of the third?? the greymon/parrotmon fight bit wasnt a ‘movie’, it was the pilot episode for Adventure in japan. its more like an ova I think, but i dunno if the company ever gave it an official status in the movie listings...)
ANYWAY WHATEVER WHERE WAS I oh yeah Bunni Really Liked This Dumb Movie And Wished It Was Its Own Season And Kinda Wants To Make A Dumb Rpgmaker Game Of It So, ideas!
* Well... couldnt it have worked as its own season...? One of the only flaws I can agree was a significant problem was that ‘willis steals the spotlight’, tho i dont really think thats totally bad since I liked him a lot more than the 02 protagonists. But yeah, honestly you could kinda have the same movie if all the 02 characters were written out, or if Willis met with literally any group of digidestined from any series, or even completely new ones. The dub made it worse by writing out all of the scenes with the Adventure digidestined, thus writing out the 02 kids’s entire motivation for the whole plot :P And i think honestly this plot could have been a whole season if it was stretched out, and if it had original characters replacing the 02 ones. It would be unique and odd to have our protagonist be a super loner sassy asshole tamer who outright refuses to team up with anyone, fearing they’d just get vanished away by this giant terrifying digimon that’s stalking him. If the backstory was revealed slowly throughout the season it could be a very good mystery to keep us all hooked! And if there were more scenes about the other kids breaking past willis’s shell and becoming a team, rather than just ‘davis cries a joke, suddenly everything is over’. plus there’d naturally be stuff to pad out the season length if we had to be introduced to these characters and give them all their own amount of screentime and development. Or, seriously, if this was just like... a longer movie, or a mini season like Tri... Maybe we could have had the 02 kids in it and not had them feel overshadowed and useless? Maybe everyone aside from Davis could get some screentime too :P
* Maybe it could be an excuse to show off all the armor and jogress digivolutions that this series canonically has yet never used? I think it was budget constraints or not enough time in the season or something, but there was a HUGE amount of unused designs for every potential combination of crests! And all they ever got was to be trading cards and occasionally enemies in miscellanous videogames. (Oh and Lynxmon got to be an enemy in Tamers and Frontier, probably cos its the one that looks coolest animated lol!) Oh and it was odd how Cyber Sleuth seemed to retcon some previously-unrelated digimon into the Imperialdramon of Silphymon. Now Valkyrmon is something Silphymon can digivolve into, and shares the same character model even. Odd! But man it would be cool if it did get officially added to the 02 version of the evo line!
* Potential for giving Yolei and Cody a bigger plot role in the whole thing, maybe Yolei is trying to research into the mystery digimon cos she’s the computer expert? they almost never let her actually do computer stuff compared to how much izzy got to do in the first season :P It could also help thread the plot together a bit! Like, have various scenes of the different kids finding out that the Adventure kids have gone missing in different ways- Yolei could be freaking out cos she cant contact izzy, maybe Cody had a study session with joe and arrived to find his entire house empty.  And maybe have a lil plot of Yolei being like ‘oh god how can we do this without izzy’ and being able to prove herself and gain confidence instead of just living in his shadow. Also she’d just be useful in finding out stuff about mysterious dissappearances that happened in the past, via the internet, and maybe the gang could encounter willis in less of an accidental way and more like they were actively trying to track down wendigomon and THEN bump into him by accident? I dunno, just make them actually DO more. Do more to save their own damn friends. Not just the willis and davis road trip show where davis only exists to tell willis how to do various digivolution stuff :P
* I feel bad that my brain kinda defaults to calling him Willis, even though I still have no clue why they changed it from Wallace. ‘Hey this american name could be a different american name!’ I think its just stuck in my head cos i watched the dub version so much... So lol I dunno, smash them both into canon! Make him wallace but kokomon calls him willis since they’re this child-minded monster thing. (Could also keep calling terriermon gummymon and maybe even mistake the 02 kids for various people wallace used to know as a kid?)
* Dub-added stuff to keep and to toss out! I like the idea of Willis being the person izzy talked to on the internet in the previous movie. I dont like the idea that he somehow created diaboromon! You could write that out and still keep the scene, maybe even still have willis saying ‘its all my fault’ because he’s just recently lost his digimon partner to a mysterious virus and he thinks maybe the same thing is happening here/that kokomon is causing the chaos rather than diaboromon. Oh, and I like the idea of it being stated to be a virus corrupting a digimon, rather than just being... never explained wtf happened. A virus that’s the remnants of diaboromon would even make sense, though the continuity order in the dub kinda makes it impossible. (SO MANY PLOT HOLES lol)
* PLAYABLE FLASHBACKS YO and/or maybe an omake type epilogue thing after the ending like srsly give us a chance to play as willis with both his digimon and how not dead and not evil they are An epilogue would be good as a way to add some more fanon-y headcanons and ideas for what happened after kokomon came back. (or if he even did) I feel like a lot of people complain that the dub ‘changed too much’ by confirming that kokomon came back, and that somehow a happy ending is worse than an ambiguous bittersweet one. Which we didnt even have in the first place cos we saw kokomon’s digiegg in the sub anyway, even if we didnt see it hatching. BUT ANYWAY My idea for keeping that bittersweet element even if we have Happy Kokomon Is Alive Time! Its.... the dub! Or rather taking literally something that was actually just a shameless footage-chopping lazyness XD Cos the dub just showed kokomon in endigomon form in the added scene where he totally came back. Making it rather obvious even to kid-bunni that it was a dub edit, lol! BUT WHAT IF THAT! What if the bittersweet aspect is that kokomon is forever changed by the whole experience? Still having aftereffects of being corrupted, even though he isnt evil anymore. So his evolution line is still a super scary virusized one and he’s stuck unable to de-digivolve from champion level. So we could have funny/cute/sad scenes of Willis trying to live with this very large very destructive digimon, kinda like that one episode of tamers. How do I hide a seven foot tall cyborg rabbit man from my mom?? And it could also be bittersweet because kokomon’s spent so long frozen at the time when he was taken away, and now he has to cope with his two best friends having grown up without him. He’s still this childlike personality stuck in a scary body, even if he’s not dangerous anymore. And it could be very stressful for everyone involved, but also heartwarming! I mean imagine giant scary kokomon being all shy and holding his tiny big brother’s hand while crossing the street! Imagine him hugging willis and squishing him! XD So it could just be a short epilogue episode of willis and partners fighting some sort of villain of the week, and showing slice-of-life antics with them. Just establishing that their problems arent all over yet, but also that they’ll probably be strong enough to deal with it, after all they’ve managed to survive so far. And maybe some cute mini scenes of them still keeping in touch with the 02 kids as pen pals! And maybe even something like an emotional scene of willis finally introducing his digimon partners to his parents, after failing at keeping them secret? Itd be nice to see his parents tbh, i always wondered what they were like! (or does he have a single mother? since he was only talking about her during the movie)
* Random but: personality headcanons for terriermon and lopmon/kokomon! We honestly dont really get much of a personality for terriermon in this movie, he just seems like a sort of generic nice cute partner compared to the Tamers terriermon’s snarky personality. And, naturally, we dont really learn anything about kokomon’s real personality, considering the circumstances :P So! Headcanons! I always headcanoned kokomon as being a really sweet, kind and shy lil babbu before all this tragedy happened. Someone who always relied on his brother and his human friend, so being separated from them hit him extra hard. I feel like if terriermon was the one who was infected he would have had his eldritch horror take a very different form, whatever the virus is its something that feeds on the personal anxieties of the digimon it infected. Also, yeah, it’d just be cuter this way in my hypothetical epilogue fanfic ideas! Scaredy-cat wendigomon!! :3 And I kinda feel that maybe terriermon could stand out more from tamers-terriermon if he wasnt just the more level-headed equivelant, but if he was MORE OF THAT! Like... a more grumpy loner matt-type personality. After all the tragedy that happened to him ans willis he’s become quite toughened and determined to protect his tamer even though he’s too small to make an impact against his giant infected brother. And maybe like how willis has stopped having human friends, terriermon has become more cold too, and they could perhaps have more conflicts together because of it? And like.. the reason terriermon never digivolved to champion could be because of this rift between them, rather than just ‘literally the only reason the 02 kids are here is so that they can tell willis how to use his digivice’. Like seriously HOW DID GUMMYMON DIGIVOLVE TO TERRIERMON THEN?? Plus it’d just have more dynamic to their friendship and flesh the story out more. It could prove how absolutely fire-forged their friendship is, that these two grumpy sassmasters that even sass at each other still care so deeply even if they suck at showing it. Also the idea of a badass tiny terriermon is just aweome to me. Imagine him with a cape flowing in the wind, and sunglasses at night, and then imagine someone who feels like that even when theyre not wearing them. Thats how movie-terriermon always felt to me during the scenes of him fighting wendigomon! And I cheered a whole load at him digivolving and being able to fight toe-to-toe with wendigomon in the BEST FIGHT SCENE IN THE SERIES with the running up walls and GUN PUNCH TO THE FACE and just EVERYTHINGGGG the animation in this movie was too strong
* have i mentioned that i love this movie
* a lot
