it's sad how many reviews and stuff around tmbg seem to centre linnell as the sole dark and creepy writer of the band, never really crediting flansburgh too. do "hide away folk family," "dirt bike," "rabid child," "black ops," "cloisonné" mean nothing to them, smh.
#tmbg#this rigid dichotomy they tend to get forced into even tho linnell has written some happier songs and flansburgh plenty horrific ones#I'll be honest tho. I fully went into tmbw-interp-tab conspiracy when I first heard ''sleeping in the flowers'' lmao#I thought that song was about somebody getting murdered#the title seemed like a euphemism to me#it's actually. according to flansburgh. just about getting high in central park#and it's inspired by itchycoo park by the small faces which I knew and loved before and it's GREAT go listen to that. it's '60s psychedelia#so the lyrics are prob fantasising about spending time with the crush and essentially playfully talking sweet nothings together#bc they're stoned and in love#but honestly I thought ''you proclaim that you're an island. I proclaim that I'm one too''#''I declare that I am england. you declare that I have drowned''#sounded to me like someone trying to get away and be alone but the other person not getting the hint#esp bc the narrator introduces themself as not wanting to be ''known as the creep''#the part about getting a ride home with a drunk guy ''who showed me how to spin my head round and round''#sounded like the driver helping them get their story straight/take their mind off it#and the narrator feels they came across as ungrateful about their advice in their shocked state#plus the way the instrumental between the verses and chorus changes from fuzzy and gritty to lighthearted brass#like it's catching you off-guard#but it's not about any of that it's about being high#anyway none of that is an example of a genuinely creepy flansburgh song but

over the time he's known them, Bastien has always had at least a vague notion of what Wolfgang does. to actually see them kill someone with their bare hands is... a different experience

What is perhaps the saddest part of why Wheatley GLaDOS and Chell all remain alone in the end is that this could've been easily fixed if literally any of them valued friendship and connections more
If Wheatley valued his friendship with Chell more he at least wouldn't have tried to kill her and just let her go, and at most he wouldn't have betrayed her in the first place
If Chell valued Wheatley's openness and genuine want to help she would've catched him and gave him signs that he wanted and he probably wouldn't have betrayed her later
GLaDOS came close, but it was at the very end and way too late for her and Chell to form a healthy bond, or at least it's the very very start of it. As for Wheatley she literally left him in space and while yeah he was a massive jerk but they have a lot in common and could've found a common ground too
It's a story about at least two characters who have a giant need in connection and friendship, but because of their warped priorities and unwillingness to open up they always end up alone

Miss Marple Literary Universe and the Tommy and Tuppence Literary Universe are one and the same!!
I don't know if anyones talked about this before but in Sleeping Murder, when Gwenda and Giles visit a sanatorium (aka "a mental home"), there's "a very charming old lady[...]holding a glass of milk". Her first line, spoken to Gwenda, is "Is it your poor child, my dear?". She mentions that the clock is "always at half past ten", and that something is "behind the fireplace". Her name is never mentioned and the entire interaction is less than half a page long. And thats the entirety of this character... in this Miss Marple story.
In the Tommy and Tuppence novel By the Pricking of My Thumbs, there's an old lady called Mrs. Lancaster in a nursing home whose first scene involves her love for milk, asking Tuppence "was it your poor child?", mentioning that the time is always "ten past eleven", and that something is "behind the fireplace".
By the Pricking of My Thumbs is set sometime in the late 1940s to the early 1950s according to Wikipedia, and Mrs. Lancaster was put in a nursing home roughly 20 years before that. Sleeping Murder, though published in 1976, is set in ~1944 (source: my dubious math based on a wedding certificate and backed up by wikipedia lol). So the timeline makes sense: if Mrs. Lancaster was originally put in a nursing home in ~1930, she could definitely have been in Sleeping Murder.
It's safe to say that it was the same person in both books. Which is wild to me because I often wonder if all these different Agatha Christie stories are happening in the same literary universe? Now I know at least that Miss Marple and Tommy & Tuppence are running around in the same world sniffing around a bunch of crimes.

so I actually really enjoy the OG SQQ, he is such an angsty and dramatic bitch absolutely stuffed with trauma and terrible coping behind that ice cold veneer and it’s a shame we didn’t get more of him. there’s just so much to explore with him and he gets cut out and missed by his sect exactly 0% which is pretty heartbreaking.
#svsss#shen qingqiu#shen jiu#og!sqq#a guy that had the outline of a protagonist but the realism of life#orphan child taken living on the streets that has seen too much darkness to be naive but he cares for the other children in his own way#tries to survive the streets and being sold to an abusive family#his friend is saved and brought to a better life leaving him behind#he’s stuck playing the gentle toy for an oblivious girl as her brother torments him regularly#he’s abandoned by his friend and he decides to take fate into his own hands#learning cultivation from a rogue and breaking free of his chains the only way he’s learned how#with brutal and efficient violence…all by himself#he murders his abusers and the rogue who pushed him further into darkness and crime#he makes his way to a righteous cultivation sect to see his brother who he thought was lost to him in death…#…doing apparently just fine as the future sect leader of the top sect with nothing but a bright shiny future and no worries#his past and betrayals have turned him bitter and cutting and closed off but more driven than anyone else#he suffers from qi deviation and likely issues being around other men and substandard education to become head disciple and later peak lord#but no matter how high he goes all he sees is that little beaten and abandoned boy who was good enough for no one with no future#all those fancy worries and honors mean nothing to someone who did anything to survive#all the vague apologies in the world do nothing to ease the suffering he’s experienced#all the rumors and snide remarks are worth him trying to explain himself constantly - to justify his existence#and all the self loathing that has built up could have done nothing but explode upon meeting the blessed protagonist#don’t mind me#just in my feels about sqq again#mxtx why did you make this man only to throw him away??

A peek inside Nigel's notes
...in which my obsession knows no bounds.
Here is a screenshot of the page from Nigel's notebook that Alex reads to his friends and which Sally later sees while investigating Nigel's secret room.
Tumblr media
And here is my best attempt at a transcription, because I had to know what it said. And also to help the youngsters who may not be able to read cursive well or at all. There are a few words I can't quite make out, as denoted by [?].
…night at his study desk …every day. I have observed him …and [?] Alex is …[?] in our lunch and spends , megalomaniac with delusions …at seven and walked quickly across the …class this morning was English literature …minutes late. After that he will go to Biology …to follow Alex in Biology class. Alex made a [?]... …incision into the small mouse and did not appear to... …the arteries began to flow blood into the dissecting tray …been long and i have performed several dissections as well as …on various animals. The three mice that were pregnant lay …the dissecting tray with each of their limbs splayed out and pinned …[?]. Alex slept restlessly last night and then woke at six thirty am. Last night he had stayed awake reading until eleven but lay awake for another forty six minutes. He had placed his clothes on a chair the night before where on previous evenings he would hang them neatly in his closet. After he arrived back and put away his books he watched me from the other side of the room while I removed a rat's heart and pretended to be disgusted. His shoes are always highly polished and his pants are always perfectly pressed. Alex will line up his shoes at the base of his wardrobe and always make sure his coat is hung on the back of the door. On average, Alex will do two hours and thirty minutes of homework per night but spend countless hours in the library reading. Alex is an egocentric megalomaniac with delusions of grandeur. He will spend twenty six minutes in the shower each morning and always puts his left shoe on before his right. The last thing he does before he leaves our room in the morning is put on his wristwatch that sits to the left of his lamp on the nightstand. After making his bed Alex spends three minutes in front of the mirror, checking his appearance and will …put on his blazer jacket. After he arrived back our room he… …brushed his teeth and taken a long shower he changed… …morning he does his tie up in a windsor knot, … …who leave their tie knotted and slip it… …a noose.
After this, the text starts to repeat previous statements, as the propmaker's inventiveness failed. Clearly they cared most about making sure the megalomaniac bit would be noticeable since that's what is called out in the lines.

being obsessive is all fun and games until you’re struck with a pain in ur chest so intense you literally feel like you’re about to die and all you can do is scream, cry and pull your hair out all because the person you love pays the Smallest bit of attention to someone else !!

[through gritted teeth] i am so normal about this
#no no no it's just like....#the difference between just these two instances from s1 to s3 is FASCINATING to me#he's not asking in the first he's just stating a fact and he's having his belief confirmed#(by a man who's now almost definitely going to be in jail for the rest of his life -#the less extreme of the worst case options jane's had in his head but still nothing to scoff at) he's told with passion and conviction that#the revenge was worth the cost; that he doesn't regret it in the slightest; that it was 'redemptive')#and that's exactly what jane thinks that's what he's built his life around for the past - at least 5? - years#but he IS asking in the second; it's years after the first and he's not the same man he was then#he does still believe in vengeful justice i think but it's not just him that he has in mind now#there's other people to consider - people that found their way into his head and his heart (despite any of his efforts to the contrary)#and he's asking this question to a man who's just been cleared of all charges (were they murder charges? idk i need to watch that ep again)#it's not just him he's thinking of now and it's not just the most concrete costs either#it's....idk it's a shift from the objective costs to the emotional costs; it's the shift from being told to asking i'm just obsessed#(also interesting that these are both men when the only time i can think of off the top of my head where he has this kind of interaction#with a woman is the s1 country club episode? the one with liz forbes? where she breaks down and says it doesn't change a thing#that's a completely new tilt to it too that's something to consider all of this actually has no point but where else am i gonna say it)#tm
