#overhead in my house

Peter: You've heard of seedless watermelons. But what about extra seed watermelons!

Tony: That sounds like a horrible idea. Why would you want extra seeds?

Peter: They’re super crunchy.

Tony: ???

Peter: What? It adds texture.

something about the diaz home as a symbol of everything sacred to eddie.

something about the diaz home representing eddie's privacy and his life and by extension, christopher's, and that it's a constant, recurring motif of a life that he's built with his son. and it's always interesting to see that his home is always warm (in terms of lighting, color combos, etc etc) and welcoming, which feels so vastly different to the other two homes we've seen for him in eddie begins

something about the way he has to physically open the door to let people in to his life, and how many shots of that we've had of just him opening the damned door since. something about the way he physically lets shannon in in 2x07, or the way he braces himself with chris' encouragement before opening the door to ana in 4x08, or the way he happily lets carla in in 4x13 or the way he softens and smiles when he opens the door to buck in 6x12. it's in the way the only people we've really seen in eddie's home as "not guests" are the ones that he chooses to let in.

in that same vein, we can always tell when there's someone in there that doesn't quite belong. 5x11 is a prime example of this, and not just because of the episode title, "outside looking in." it's evidently obvious that the only reason taylor's in his house is for buck's sake, and maybe that's why we never see eddie actually letting them in. 5x03 is similar to that, in the sense that ana stays for three days with chris at the diaz home, but when eddie comes back, it's a metaphorical and physical mess that he's left standing in the middle of, alone.

and it's very, very interesting that we've never seen his parents in his house. ever. and yes, it could just be the fact that they rarely come to los angeles period, but i just think it's interesting in terms of eddie's journey with them, that the closest we've gotten to them physically being there is that facetime call with his dad, and that phone call with his mom - both of which happen after he goes back to texas in 5x17 where he point-blank tells his dad he's trying to be better for himself, and his dad meets him halfway. it only happens after his relationship with his dad starts improving.

i just constantly think of the diaz home front door, and now that i've thought of it, there's so many other moments that scream at me:

buck unlocking eddie's door in 4x14 and swinging it open to the party, and then later standing in the open doorway almost like he's protecting eddie and the life he's built in this one way because he couldn't protect him in the other way

buck unlocking eddie's door with his own key in 5x13, then bursting through yet another door to get to eddie, just to step in and sit with him in his grief - and how much that scene symbolizes that eddie may have built this life but it was after burying demons that later just crawled up through the cracks of his new home.

buck standing inside the diaz home after eddie gets home from therapy in 5x14 like this is a regular occurrence.

the way eddie's discomfort is visible in that split second scene we get of the police officers storming his home in 2x15

eddie asking shannon to leave through the back door because he may have let her into his life but he's not ready to let her into chris' and thus, he doesn't truly let her into his life - and actually, even the shot of eddie, chris and shannon at the end of that episode takes place outside the diaz home. which is...telling methinks.

eddie opening his door post-date in 4x07 to buck meeting him at it (always meeting him halfway), and just. the domesticity of it, set off by the warm lights, the discussion they have, and the looks on their faces the whole like

eddie opening his door to buck in 6x12, looking apprehensive for a second before he realizes who it is and his smile grows and eyes turn into heart-eyes and buck just pushes past him without waiting for eddie to step aside, only to go and swing his feet up on the coffee table like the diaz home is his, too.

there's so many examples but @sevensoulmates and i put this whole meta together because the symbolism in this tv show is off the charts

#zee rambles #meta #911 abc #911 on abc #eddie diaz #is some of this a reach? probably #do i care? no #because fr it's so bold of a motif to use the diaz home as a symbol for eddie and it's not just house is a home #it's also my home is my heart and you are my home and here's my heart #idk #it's a lot of things at once #there's a complete separate meta about the buddie implications of this all #and from a visual standpoint there's something about the fact that eddie clearly prefers lamp and warm lighting (as he should) #we rarely see overhead lighting used and that's just...that #long post #i should be writing my midterm rn but alas

“It’s cold." “I know. I know, but we’re going to be alright. Do you hear me? You’re alright now. You’re going to be okay.” “I want to go home.” “We can’t go back home. We’re—we’re orphans now, remember? Nobody’s waiting for us back there.”

#this is technically art for my fic so it gets the tag: #silvacegreengardens #I love drawing backgrounds (lie) #my art #fernart #for once I'm feeling pretty proud of this one??? wild #guess that's what happens when I try for a full illustration every once in a while lol #rip to that plant specifically though. abstract shapes be upon ye #the owl house #caleb wittebane #philip wittebane #wittebros #toh fanart #eventually I'm going to post a short green gardens companion fic that explains what Caleb's going through bc it's a Lot #oh rip to the blanket and left hand too. definitely did not try incorporating them as well as I could have. ah well #the focus for this was color and expression anyway #bummer that it's so dark but I couldn't figure out how to get the ambience otherwise and I refuse to shoot reference of myself #dripping wet and sitting in a dark place with vague overhead ambient lighting #you should've seen how Caleb's feet looked in the initial sketch.

i love that myhouse.wad inspired people to buy house of leaves

[simplyghosting]

After 10 years hard at work, my $10 IKEA lamp finally died. RIP you single LED star. There for me when no one else was.

#ghost posts #now I can’t see anything #bc this house was not designed for when you need light #everything either in heckin shadow or no overheads #seriously there is an entire room with nothing but wall outlets not even an option for overhead lighting #which is where my desk is :) #I need a lamp!!! please light!!!!

Back home and some complicated feelings about it again 😍 that said. Nothing beats my own beautiful bed

#sometimes I genuinely don't know whether I'd prefer to move back in with my parents or not #it wouldn't solve anything but I guess I could save up for a house? maybe? #but then again I can't right now because the point of being here is the learning and experiences #plus! I said I was going to try out the year. and we're only 1/4th through #which is a lot and not a lot simultaneously #back from friend trip agh. I miss the company even if being around people makes me self conscious #not my friend himself mind you but roommates I don't know as well as him. regardless. company nice #but the advantage of being at friend's places is that you can see what makes you feel at home in a place and then adjust that in your place #for example. my family never put a lot of stuff up on the walls #but I actually love rooms with a lot of framed pictures photos posters and such up. so if I do that here I'll like my space more #also!! I need to get more lamps #I love having various lamps around the place and I love not using overhead lighting #so I should invest in some home decor... for my gay little mental health #perhaps see what I can do to decorate for the winter holidays? #bien rambles #I've never been good at decorating or interior design but I can play around with it now...

love when dreams are like "what's the scariest shit we can possibly imagine" unprompted

#i dreamt my neighbors were trying to break into my house as a tornado was overhead and i was going around locking doors #and i watched a guy get decapitated but his head was still alive and talking #did not enjoy that #dream

I miss my childhood house so much I would give anything to grab the knob at the end of the banister and jump from the third step and catch a million seconds of air while I whip myself around the banister and down the hall

#I also miss my treehouse and the pool table I would use for fashion shows and the smell of the “secret garden” under the stairs and #the way the house would settle and the planes overhead and that stain on the carpet from where I dropped an entire plate of mac n cheese #and the distinct smell of my mom’s closet and climbing down over the back bank and going to the entryway where the ceiling was two stories #high and throwing bouncy balls as hard as I could to get them to bounce off the ceiling and the rope swing in the backyard and eating #the buttercups that grew there bc I read once they were edible and the sound your nails made when they scratched across the counter and #using hot clue to peel off paint and make patterns on the workbench and the shed that smelled like gasoline and climbing the tree that #my dad installed handles into to make it easier and making umbrella forts and playing washing machine (spinning around and around in #circles with your arms out then falling to the floor and watching the room spin) and the mismatched rung on the banister from where #I broke it and the sound of the cat door and how the garage door was so heavy that it would slam if you didn’t prop it open and how the #smell of laundry would waft up into my room and how if you laid on the bathroom floor you could see a piece of the old yellow flower #wallpaper that my mom missed when she ripped it out and the sound of the sliding glass door that we could never quite get clean and #the sound that the bag full of bags would make when you opened the pantry door too far and how my neighbor always used to sing when #she brought her trash out late at night and the crunch sound the carpet would make when you walked on the edge and how raccoons would #always come to the back door and my cat would try to scare them away and being scared to go into my mom’s bathroom bc the shower #had been ripped out for years after my dad tried to power wash it so it left several gaping holes to the rest of the house but there were #spiders in there for all I knew or cared #carmen.txt

[darkwood-sleddog]

Not dogs but I am convinced I need some new lamps (either floor, table or sconce type) in the living room bc I cannot stand having just one shitty overhead light. What do you think the likelihood I can convince mr d to go thrifting on Sunday is….hmmmm.

#not dogs #most furniture in my house is either #thrifted #gifted #hand me down #or roadside trash we’ve reappropriated lmao #I refuse to buy some boring new lamp too hinestly. #overhead too bright to be cozy #so it’s either that or complete darkness

Tony: Hey, kid. Did you hear that? People are calling me The Invincible Iron Man.

Peter: Yeah, but that's kind of a weird choice, isn't it?

Tony: Why would you think that?

Peter: ... because I can still see you...?

#fuck that shopkeeper near my house who was like madam aapko 100 mein 2 de raha hu wahi kaafi hai 100 mein 3 toh station side pe bhi nahi #bechte #like bhai chutiya samajh rakha hai main roz jaati hu station side #he was like ye 'posh' area hai yahan 50 mein mil raha hai usme mein hi khush raho #like this random uncle is telling me kitne mein satisfied hona chahiye 🙄 #and he's talking about rent and dead stock like dude i don't care about your fixed overheads or whatever loss mein doob jao tum #anyway new socks are cute and pretty and they have stripes #mes

[lycanqueer]

everything kinda sucks and i'm in a lot of pain but i can see like five or six different species of bird from where i'm sitting on the deck and i think everything will be okay eventually

#i'm trying to acclimate the local birds to my presence so they'll come eat at the feeder while i'm outside #the chickadees are the boldest usually but the male cardinals like to show off so sometimes they'll come close too #there's also a nuthatch and a bunch of mockingbirds and like three different kinds of woodpeckers #blue jays and mourning doves and the carolina wrens who look like squirrels who got magicked into birds #hawks and vultures overhead and once a great blue heron in the creek right behind the deck #it's funny but while robins are fairly common in this area i don't see them around the house ever #all the time out and about at work but never at home

The way that sewing clears my head is uncanny

#working on a corset for one of my actors #it’s really Victorian lady’s maid hours and I’m thriving #the day has been weird so far but I love my job I love that I get paid to sew #what I don’t love is the sound of somebody running across the floor directly overhead when the only thing overhead is disused storage #but those are just the occupational hazards of working in a haunted house #museum musings #tales from the servant’s wing
