#only 3 eps to go...

[vergina-spva]

I just wanted to say... props to the One Piece live action for giving Usopp some clear negative feelings towards his absentee father.

#opla #one piece #opla spoilers #one piece live action #I'm only 3 eps in but yeah I was like 'you go Usopp!' your father is an asshole for leaving you #you have all rights to be jealous of Luffy for spending time with him #I've always hated the absence of any such clear feelings in the anime #my father is a pirate he's so cool! #no your father left you and your dying mother all alone

my perfect ending for katara was basically inejs ending in six of crows where she leaves to hunt slavers on the ships (but she always comes back <3). so like painted lady episode but larger scale enacting justice for people in the world who have no one. bc getting rid of the fire lord wasn’t just gonna fix every thing. i think that would’ve slayed soo hard and been perfect for her. even a tiny allusion to it would’ve been everything. but whatever. i Don’t care. it doesn’t bother me that she just got married and stayed home. after having to mother everyone for 3 books. it’s fine. i’m an adult. explodes .

#also in the very beginning SHE wanted to go explore the iceberg #SHE wanted to leave the north pole to help aang #like she was meant for that!!!! #almost all her centric episodes are her leading for justice in some way #the haru on the ship prison ep #the southern raiders ep (my beloved <3) #the painted lady ep #the blood bending ep #also when she litchrally fought against the northern water tribe bc they only saw women as potential wives and mothers and not benders #LIKE!!!!!! #atla

[shorthaltsjester]

sometimes people will say “going dark” and then what they’re actually talking about is just people no longer presenting a carefully constructed version of their emotions and experiences.

like. emotional turmoil is not the same as darkness. laudna in this Fictional Universe that has tangibly different stakes wrt to death and killing than our own, is at best like . morally neutral for what she just did like. man has been secretly trying to kill you, and then just tried to do so again, killing him back is a fair choice. and even if i was someone who is excited by delilah’s inability to escape from the narrative, this shit isn’t about delilah. laudna made a choice. if delilah is back or whatever it’s a choice that laudna made because something in that grants her more control than her existing conditions did. this isn’t some Delilah Takes Over, it’s Laudna Expressly Makes The Choice To Call Forth Something within Herself to remedy the lack of control that’s been thrust upon her. if y’all want to Continue to limit Laudna’s agency (as the cr fandom is so, so want to do when a female character makes a choice that isn’t Good according to some weird system of virtue ethics) go ahead.

likewise with orym. little guy is not “going dark” because he has finally made direct action about his emotional turmoil in dealing with a situation which has similarly left him without control and has also placed him in a position where his stalwart conviction towards protecting and honouring those he loves and has lost alike is constantly met with other people he cares for going well.. what if they had a point/we are killing other peoples loved ones/etc. which like . yeah that might be frustrating and in fact might lead him to go, actually, i can’t afford to try and maintain some abject morality where I carry a locket that will literally only provide guilt. orym is completely committed to his beliefs, the locket and what it represents has never been a limit to what he will do, only a reminder of the consequences of what he might cause in those actions. but they Are at war and orym has a billion things on his plate. he can put down the locket. especially when bor’dor is the explicit manifestation of that locket’s symbolism. the subtext rapidly became the text and orym doesn’t need a reminder. it’s there in the fact that team issylra is walking away with two friends, not three.

these are character who have at every turn denied their own emotions in various forms while still being acutely aware of what they deny, whether that awareness was/is fully realized or not. many of laudna’s early convos with ashton show us that there is some awareness to the lighthearted spooky goth girl and how that persona fades when she thinks too much about what has led her and maintained that reality. likewise the entirety of orym’s story thus far is defined by his grief in a very literal sense, it Has extended from that grief to also the commitment he had to the purpose of figuring out the assassination attempt on keyleth but as we have seen, that purpose has fallen apart. paired with the quasi-reopening of his grief that was getting to see will again only to have to turn away, i don’t think there’s a lack of awareness in orym of how much he hurts. but between his actions and 4SD, that hurt tends to get buried under guilt or Responsibility.

and now, finally, both of them have admitted to that Not in the safety of small introspection or one-on-one conversations but with actions that they cannot shy away from or deny. laudna killed bor’dor and orym encouraged her to. and it Is a complex situation but truly I don’t really think it’s a “going dark” one. because they’re not giving into some overhanging Darkness of Morality™, they’re admitting that they are hurt and have long been hurting.

or, y’know, tldr for those who continue to deny laudna and orym agency or fully villainise them for whatever weird reasons . you could listen to laudna and ashton’s conversation that pretty much lays it out explicitly. laudna claims she’s weak for having chosen to kill bor’dor. ashton denies that and affirms instead that, no, she’s hurt.

#critical role #cr spoilers #laudna #orym #team issylra #maybe it’s because a lot of these people r also the people who have no literacy wrt religious and philosophical complexity #that Screams bad experience that hasn’t been reckoned with but. the Big part of healing is that. a lot of the time #especially with Trauma. the mess is gonna come before the pretty little bow does #like noah fence but . this is The Most interesting laudna and orym have been to me this far and it’s not because they’re Darker #it’s because they’re being more true to themselves #maybe this is nitpicky I Don’t Care #me watching c1 as vex admits that she still feels like a burden and Heavily considers being treeified for sondor. ‘is this vex Going Dark?’ #as an imogen Lover . let’s be real and admit the only Genuine going dark risk is her at this point in the campaign #because like. i truly don’t see anyone else making the Choice to do absolutely fucked up selfish things #and imogen considers doing that shit like . once every two eps At Least (affectionate but eyes wide about it) #anyway. reunion will be very interesting with an orym and laudna who are shedding pieces of what maintains their like Group Role #bells hells #critical role spoilers #cr3 #cr campaign 3 #bell’s hells #my posts

Im sorry but the writers did not show Ed cleaning things up after he shot Izzy as a parallel when he started cleaning up after Stede left him so people could still say that he was healing and actually fine in s1ep10

#as much as I complain about s2 episodes 1-3 had a lot of genuinely strong moments #that should have been built upon rather than swept under the rug #by not acknowledging those episodes it did such a disservice to Ed #like listen izzy did step out of line #but I think that Ed was also like going to veer into self-destruction regardless #and by izzy doing that he became a target #which I don't think Ed would have done otherwise #izzy hands #like ed had izzy get rid of most of the crew and then after that Izzy was taking all the damage #it was only in ep 3 after ed thought izzy was dead that he ended up actually trying to harm the crew #ed critical #i guess? not really criticizing anything but I know sometimes things get misinterpreted and I'd just rather not have that happen

[americankimchi]

wish i knew what to do with this helpless frustration i feel every time i see people vilify the jedi for their way of life when the person doing the vilification doesn't even understand them properly. it's one thing to criticize and dislike them if you have an accurate picture of who they were and what they're trying to do vs. hating them because you straight up don't understand them at all 😭

#personal #this isn't vagueposting i'm just tired of seeing it every time i go in the tags or on youtube or on ao3 #literally if you boil the jedi down to the essentials it's just #''these are psychic empath space wizards wandering around the galaxy trying to establish a higher quality of life for everyone'' #a bunch of aragorns except anduril is a beaming blade of plasma #or gandalf with the ability to do backflips #the only hard rule they have is ''thou shalt not add misery to the world where you can remove it'' #everything else is just interpretations on that theme #''they're cold and unfeeling and they HATED ANAKIN and BAN LOVE'' #like WHERE in the WORLD are you getting this information #WHEREEEEE #SHOW ME YOUR SOURCESSSS #and don't say ''they ban attachments'' without understanding what that MEANS #ATTACHMENTS =/= LOVE #ATTACHMENTS ARE CHAINS THAT YOU USE TO DRAG OTHERS DOWN WITH YOU #YOU KNOW THE SAYING IF YOU LOVE SOMETHING YOU WILL LET IT GO? THAT'S IT. THAT'S ALL IT IS. #and where are u getting that they hated anakin do you think he'd be so torn up about betraying them all in ep 3 #if he was surrounded by people who hated him for over a decade like mans was IN TEARS #HE LOVED AND WAS LOVED BY THEM IN TURN #IT JUST WASN'T ENOUGH TO SAVE THEM IN THE END BECAUSE #CRUCIALLY #HIS ATTACHMENT TO PADME DRAGGED HER AND THEM AND EVERYONE ELSE DOWN WITH HIM #stop stripping anakin of his agency he made a CHOICE #star wars is ALL ABOUT CHOICE. THE CHOICE TO FALL IN EP 3. AND THE CHOICE TO RISE AGAIN IN EP 6. #like cmon fellas..... fellas cmon........

[dennistakesamentalhealthday]

dennis is an angry character btw im sorry but he is full of rage but that rage is not exclusive his anger does not negate sadness and fragility and insecurities in fact they work together and dtamhd was one of the first times where his anger was not used as a joke via a surface level rage explosion from him but instead explored the fragility of his anger. the way he keeps reassuring the workers he encounters (and himself) that he's not mad. when he tells daisy he's not mad but he is a little bit upset. dennis is angry and that anger is what makes him so fragile. he was upset and it manifested as rage bc he doesnt know what to do with his own sadness

#disclaimer tags yes i would like to see his emotions explored more but i disagree that we ONLY saw anger in dtamhd #and EVEN IF IT WAS ONLY ANGER... anger is just as VALID and fragile and vulnerable as sadness. they are family #we saw how his anger makes him fragile how it exhausts him #how it works with his stress and fears and insecurities and sadness #he was UPSET!!!! #angry dennis in dtamhd WAS big feelings dennis in tends bar. that was the same #he expressed anger in tends bar bc he was upset he expressed anger in dtamhd bc he was upset etc etc #and i think the sadness people were expecting was present. the sadness and fragility we would have seen if he cried on the beach like most #of us anticipated (btw he did cry at the beach <3 technically <3) was THERE. it was just in his anger #sewerkingcharlie talked about this already and worded it very well but im honestly kinda bothered by how some people have treated #the portrayal of anger and emotions in this ep #you dont have to like the ep or how they portrayed dennis but some posts have really given the vibe of #his anger and his emotional outburst not being as valid because it wasnt portrayed in the way you expected #or that it wasnt palatable enough #and honestly if you dont like it thats okay! but can we please be careful with how we talk about mental illness and anger outbursts! #yes it is frustrating when people ONLY see dennis' anger or see dennis' anger in a very shallow way #which a lot of the audience unfortunately does because its been treated like a joke #but it wasnt a just a joke here #and maybe this will all go past dudebros heads frankly i dont give a shit lol but thats for another post

[paperglader]

in this episode Imogen:

Took off her circlet. You know, that one that finally gave her peace and quiet, that soothed her constant pain and anxiety, and that gave her the confidence and energy to get back to fully feeling comfortable on her own skin after years. That’s the one. She just took it off.

Told laudna that she was disgusted by the fact that delilah was always watching them. You know, something that laudna fully has no control over whatsoever.

Admitted that she felt like she’s “tainted” and that the gods have been ignoring her for her entire life, in spite of her trying over and over to reach them. So she doesn’t really want to save them.

Mentioned being genuinely scared of meeting Liliana again. Totally not a problem, I’m sure nothing bad will happen there. Specially not in the next couple of episodes.

Said some unfair stuff to fearne, that I genuinely think is coming from somewhere else entirely, and I hope we circle back to eventually.

It’s safe to say that I am officially ✨worried✨ about the farmgirl

#I will not tolerate any amount of Imogen hate on this post if anyone even dares #miss temult will only be treated with love and tenderness in any post of mine 😂 #but anyways #girly has spent like the last 2-3 eps fully hearbroken about the shit that keeps happening to them #so like yeah #of course #she’s on some sort of breaking point #she talked to a god yet again who she’s trying to save only to be ignored and pressed upon the fact that she’ll lose the woman she loves #Laudna’s abuser has been continuously tormenting them and fully damaging Laudna’s wellbeing whilst she can’t do much of anything #laudna asked her to move on and find happiness when Delilah inevitably takes over #also to take her down before that happens #they’re about to go to the moon where they could face and/or even have to kill some of the bad guys that include her own mother #plus she’s constantly fighting off this intrinsic need of hers to give into a power that’ll destroy her and everyone she loves #the farmgirl is truly NOT doing alright #oh and a friend of hers just manipulated another friend of hers into letting them kill themselves #pretty wild #critical role #Laudna needs her own post btw cause she’s going THROUGH it as well #imodna #imogen temult #southern gothic #c3 #cr spoilers #c3 spoilers #critical role spoilers #bells hells #campaign 3

#chuck Should be directing most of his ire at sam bc he's the one who always pulls off these crazy feats of love that #tie the cosmos into knots lmao #also this sam speech. ''you protected me from dad.... from lucifer....'' #he did neither of those things baby but i understand you need to reframe your trauma (even tho the writers don't) #regardless this sequence of scenes is more compelling to me than anything in the following 3 eps #spn #liveblog tag #15.17 #i like that it's titled 'unity' and features samndean having a physical altercation while chuck (dean mirror) convinces amara (sam mirror) #that nobody else in the universe understands them and that the only way for them to go on is by him absorbing her into himself #and he was able to convince her of this bc she was crushed that dean lied to her and intended to kill her to take down chuck #i like it. picasso

Seconds Ago...

A lot can (and has) been said about the last scene in episode 3, and how important it is for Kinn and Porsche's developing relationship, but I want to focus in on just one small interaction between them:

Kinn (showing just a hint of vulnerability) asks Porsche, "When was the last time you (were) this happy?"

And Porsche cheerfully replies, "Seconds ago."

My first reaction to this was the same as Kinn's - amused, fond, and maybe a little disappointed, because Porsche is clearly too drunk to get what Kinn is really asking here.

But rewatching this scene knowing everything these characters will go through, I actually think that this response is perfect for Porsche.

Because Porsche has been through a lot of shit in his life - his parents' 'accident' put so much responsibility on his shoulders, and that's lead him, stumbling and bullied, down the path to organized crime - but despite everything, he still finds ways to have fun!

He has to scramble to earn money for their house, but he still runs grinning into the fighting ring.

He's forced to leave Chay to move into the compound, but he still finds joy antagonizing Ken and Big.

He's downgraded to the tedious task of guarding Tankuhn, but he still manages to drag Kuhn to his kind of night out.

And there's countless other examples in these first three episodes, and the series as a whole, of Porsche's goofy optimism getting him through!

Of course, the stresses of Porsche's life do still affect him (and we'll see him really struggle in just a couple of episodes) - but overall, he shows an amazing ability to put down his troubles for a little while and find joy in the moment.

Because he was this happy just seconds ago. So he knows he'll be happy again soon.
