scene bucket #5(?)
marion: why do we never get percy with feeling
feelings*
like
kristin: ?
marion: this kid has problems
and 
we never talk about them at all canonically
kristin: yeah, idk
like there are (that i know of) two instances of ptsd
in the entire series
which, okay, kids book, but still
he's like seventeen (and so are the rest of them)
they've seen who knows how many deaths. like...
marion: isn't it a YA book tho?
kristin: yeah
but
i think it was targeted to like 13/14?
idk...
marion: harry potter has death plots and people bleeding out and george being rightfully upset about fred
but like
pjo is just yes we have problems in the subtext
kristin: that is one thing i missed.
that i want.
(which probably makes me horrible, idk)
marion: no i kind of want it too
kristin: xD
are we bad people?
marion: no
i think we just want someone to finally be sad
kristin: yeah
marion: bc these kids are like
always happy
bar leo who canonically is depressed but they NEVER SAY IT
kristin: right
like, for example, i feel like with all those deaths (especially, for example, like Bianca and Beckendorf) and with Percys fatal flaw
he'd really beat himself up
like, more so than in the books.
and like Hazel literally was in the underworld.
and even though she was in the fields of asphodel. i feel like that would mess someone up.
marion: hazel faced discrimination 
uhM
kristin: eurgh
i've always wanted to explore that, tbh
like, i have this thing that when she finally comes back, she asks Nico where a bathroom is, and he shows her
and she's like "that's not funny"
because there's different colored people in  there, too
marion: oh
that's
that's kind of depressing
kristin: oof.
sorry.
idk, its just how i always imagined it going down.
marion: no no you're right
im just
kind of sad
that that would happen
kristin: yeah, ik
marion: to cinnamon roll hazel
kristin: (literally one of my favorite characters)
marion: *sob* i cant deal with this
:'(
this genuinely makes me want to cry
i dont-
how????
kristin: you imagine how hard it would be for her to have to adjust to like having a brother
that was
eurgh
sorru
*sorry
( i don't know if the term white is offensive or not)
marion: nah 
kristin: okay, okay just checking
marion: poor cinnamon roll
kristin: D:
marion: i want to hug her and never let go
kristin: sammee
marion: ndfowendonwefon hazel is best
kristin: ikr
marion: hazel deserves best
kristin: yes
like she had to watch her mom die
in front of her
and she thought it was her fault
marion: hazel has angst, percy has angst, leo has angst
like her fatal flaw is guILT
angst budddiees
marion: :[
the angst trio
they cry themselves to sleep and pretend they're ok!
kristin: stOP
that's soo sad.
marion: everyone tries and subsequently fails to get them to talk about their problems
kristin: yeah, ik.
and they're just like, i'm fine. 
Stop! Get some help!
marion: we're fine *sobbing*
kristin: through their tears
like, the rest of the seven can hear them crying through the thin walls of the Argo but nobody says anything
marion: *whispers* trauma? never heard of her
kristin: whose she?
honestly, though, like *sighs* it's so sad
marion: hahahaha...
kristin: haha.
*sighs*
like, the fates or whatever terrible being is in charge, just throw these kids and a satyr
on a flying boat
to destroy the earth
in order to save it
marion: and only one of them is mostly ok
actually coach hedge seems ok
kristin: yeah
maybe a little wack-o
but...
otherwise, fine
marion: so 2 out of 8
kristin: (unless we're counting nico)
marion: 2/9
kristin: Who, i think doesn't get as much appreciation as he should
reyna? 
marion: 2/10
kristin: ooh, yes
oh, gods were making it worse
marion: 1/5
uhm that's pretty small
thalia?
2/11
kristin: sTOP i feel nico should get more recognition, though. like, he went 
through tartarus.
alone.
marion: i think he and will are a focus in toa
but idk
kristin: (informercial voice Only 2 out of 11 demigods per year are mostly okay)
yeah idk either
marion: hey coach hedge isnt a demigod
kristin: CaUsE i HaVenT rEaD iT
oh no.
oops
...
marion: only 1/10 demigods are estimated to be mostly ok
one
out of
kristin: -that's-depressing-
marion: ten
kristin: one
out
of
ten
marion: low statistics
kristin: the weight of the worlds
*words
(like the weight of the sky on Percy and Annabeths shoulders)
marion: imagine the demigods making an 'into to chb!' video
kristin: uh oh
marion: and they're like so what's so great about being a demigod? and they all have fake cheery voices and blah
percy's just nothing. nothing is good about being a demigod. have fun dying before 18.
i literally barely made it.
they're like
can i quit?
no. no you can't
kristin: can i be fired?
marion: no.
please?
dang it
uhm
kristin: but you can die
:D

marion: how is that bETTTER
kristin: *whispers* it might be

*hA honestly*
*brutal honesty?*
*no? okay i'm sorry*
marion: *sob*
kristin: no, i'm fine.
they're all fin
marion: just fine.
kristin: loOK what i found
 " The cab sped west. Every gust of wind through Death Valley sounded like a spirit of the dead. Every time the brakes hissed on an eighteen-wheeler, it reminded me of Echidna’s reptilian voice."
tlt
marion: i-
my dude
get some help
perCY
kristin: he doesn't need it
'member?
marion: YES HE DOES
HE FRIGGIN NEEDS THERAPY
kristin: " She made one more attempt to speak, but the sound was gone. Her image melted away. If it was my mother, I had lost her again. I felt like drowning myself. The only problem: I was immune to drowning."
" The last thing I remembered was sinking in a burning sea, knowing that Tyson was gone forever, and wishing I were able to drown"
marion: IJBUWFDWBJVH GCWDBIUWS
he wants
to
DrOWN
himself
and he would
kristin: " Thing is, as I was choking just now, I kept thinking: this is payback for Akhlys. The Fates are letting me die the same way I tried to kill that goddess. And … honestly, a part of me felt I deserved it. That’s why I didn’t try to control the giant’s poison and move it away from me. That probably sounds crazy"
that was blood of olympus!
marion: NO NO NO NO NO NO NONO NONONONO
kristin: yEAH 
he was talking to Jason
after they were underwater or whatever
marion: and jason did nothing????
bRO
kristin: he said
marion: help hIM
kristin: Jason thought back to Ithaca, when he was despairing over the visit from his mom’s spirit. ‘No. I think I get it.’   
THEN
they act like nothing happened
   Percy studied his face. When Jason didn’t say any more, Percy changed the subject.   
marion: :[
jASON
kristin: >:{
marion: jASON ASNd PERCY
kristin: D:
marion: iowahdnbxcunejwqzhs  UGGYUSKNM
kristin: wonder how many more examples there are....
marion: oh no
my stars
kristin: ik
this is depressing   
marion: wow
kristin: what about Frank though?
or PIPER
like he dad got kidnapped
*her
and then like she finally saved him
and he was like you're a hero
and then she had to ERase his Memory
marion: oof
true
kristin: like, it's obviously not as bad as the others
but still.
marion: yeah
kristin: *exhales*
DD:
im sorry
one more
" " She shook her head. ‘I’m not Caesar. After finding Jason’s note in Diocletian’s Palace, tracking you down was easy. I only did what I thought was necessary.’ Percy couldn’t help smiling. ‘Reyna, you’re too modest. Flying halfway across the world by yourself to answer Annabeth’s plea, because you knew it was our best chance for peace? That’s pretty freaking heroic.’ Reyna shrugged. ‘Says the demigod who fell into Tartarus and found his way back.’ ‘He had help,’ Annabeth said. ‘Oh, obviously,’ Reyna said. ‘Without you, I doubt Percy could find his way out of a paper bag.’ ‘True,’ Annabeth agreed. ‘Hey!’ Percy complained. The others started laughing, but Percy didn’t mind. It felt good to see them smile. Heck, just being in the mortal world felt good, breathing un-poisonous air, enjoying actual sunshine on his back. Suddenly he thought of Bob. Tell the sun and stars hello for me. Percy’s smile melted. Bob and Damasen had sacrificed their lives so that Percy and Annabeth could sit here now, enjoying the sunlight and laughing with their friends. It wasn’t fair. ""
marion: i-
sang it
dang it
kristin: you sang it
marion: a nice wholesome moment turned into angst
kristin: ikr
DID YOU
SEE
THAT THEORY
about Zoe and bob?
marion: ?no
kristin: HOLD ON

Bob's a titan.
He's related to Atlas, yes?
You know who else is related to Atlas? Zoe.
Bob=related to Zoe
You know what her last words were? She said 'I can see the stars again, my lady.' before Artemis turned her into a constellation.
Constellation=Stars
'Tell the stars hello'=Tell my cousin/sister/relative hello
marion: *SOB*

whAT ARE WE DOING
marion: poor perce
kristin: Dx
marion: percy is the type to get shot in the stomach and tell them to go look at annbeth's papercut
kristin: but, yeah srsly
Exhibit A
   "‘You still claim him then?’ Zeus asked menacingly. ‘You claim this child whom you sired against our sacred oath?’ ‘I have admitted my wrongdoing,’ Poseidon said. ‘Now I would hear him speak.’ Wrongdoing. A lump welled up in my throat. Was that all I was? A wrongdoing? The result of a god’s mistake? "
Exhibit B
" ‘Your mother is a queen among women,’ Poseidon said wistfully. ‘I had not met such a mortal woman in a thousand years. Still… I am sorry you were born, child. I have brought you a hero’s fate, and a hero’s fate is never happy. It is never anything but tragic.’ I tried not to feel hurt. Here was my own dad, telling me he was sorry I’d been born. ‘I don’t mind, Father.’ ‘Not yet, perhaps,’ he said. ‘Not yet. But it was an unforgivable mistake on my part.’"
marion: ah and then the mr.brunner incident
kristin: Oh! yes

RvB17 Episode 4 Review:  Breaching the Torus
Fun fact: a torus is a shape that looks like... well a donut. Yeah, the episode title is literally ‘Breaching Donut’. Well with a title like that, I expect only wholesome things form an episode that picks up right after Genkins screws over Donut and Wash’s plans! Leaving the universe certain to be wiped out by the evil time God AI... algorithm... whatever! Let's just jump in already!
Overview
We begin where we left off, Chrovos is gloating as her prison continues to fracture. But she doesn't get far in her evil gloating as Wash essentially tells her to shut the fuck up before heading for the Everwhen. Yeah, with the Time Gun out, getting the guys to realize what's wrong is really the only viable option. Wash immediately regrets this since he has no idea what to do along the Everwhen, but Donut explains it to him and gets him to focus on a memory that they're both in. Three guesses on which one Wash picks, and the first two don't count!
Yeah... Donut gets shot. Again. This time with Wash feeling bad and apologizing before going a few seconds back and stopping himself from pulling the trigger. This is the greatest running gag ever. Of all time. Anyways, the two talk about what to do next while poor Simmons is just confused by everything happening. They ultimately decide that they need to go back to a strong memory where Genkins is likely to go to. But Donut points out that they need to cause as little damage to the timeline as possible and keep things on track... so naturally, Wash shoots him to keep S7's finale intact. Poor Donut.
The two go back to S13 in a moment that I can't remember if it actually happened or not. It's before Felix and Locus went to activate The Purge and got a beatdown from the Freelancer duo. Wash is in the middle of a motivational speech when past him and Donut possess themselves. Wash tries to get Donut to explain... but after accidentally spouting and entendre, he knows he's not going to be believed and has Wash do it. Wash proceeds to try and convince the guys not necessarily about Chrovos, but that they're experiencing deja vu and that something much greater is about to wash over them (that pun was not intentional BTW). But it's okay, because they win the fight that they're about to go into, and they keep winning again and again. For now, they need to forget the Purge. They need to forget Chorus. They need to focus on what's about to come and trust Wash at his word.
It's a very well done speech and performed very well by Shannon McCormick, as always. It seems to work as the guys, while confused, all agree to follow Wash... until Genkins, whose possessing Epsilon, twists it around. He essentially makes it look like Wash is having a shell-shocked veteran moment, which Carolina agrees with and is very much concerned. This causes Wash to give a sharp 'Of course you wouldn't believe me, Carolina" in a very clear venomous tone. Even Tucker and Grif are shocked by it. Wash does catch himself, but Carolina is confused on why Wash would talk to her like that and 'Epsilon' suggests that he go take a walk. Wash does do, Donut chasing after him.
So yeah... they came close, but the attempt was not great. Wash, however, is not up for hearing Donut point this out, his anger at Carolina lying to him about his brain damage now back at full force. Donut points out that technically, he no longer has it since she saved him. That doesn't exactly make Wash any less pissed, but Donut keeps going. He points out that despite knowing the risk, Carolina still decided to try and save Wash because she cared about him. She was on the verge of tears when she brought it up... which Donut had left by then so him saying that he had been there makes no sense, but with time fucked up, I'll let it slide. Anyways, Wash realizes how angry he really got and just how much baggage about everything he's got. Right now though, they need to focus on the matter at hand, so time to go to another memory.  
And... back to the S7 finale! This time it's Donut's fault, haha! They soon manage to get to when Lopez was shot, but before Donut. As Simmons frets over Lopez, Wash and Donut walk off to talk about what to do now. They realize that Epsilon had indeed been possessed by Genkins at that point, so plain convincing isn't going to work. But... Donut realizes something. He didn't necessarily convince Wash of anything, he just got him to believe in something that was impossible for him to have known. That is the key. Everyone has deja vu. They know that something is wrong, just not what. They need something to shock them into remembering. They need to see something that they shouldn't know about but recognize anyways. Simmons walks over, still confused and pretty much going 'WTF?!' to Wash for shooting Lopez. But this gets Wash to realize something... at this point, Simmons had only met him maybe a year ago. But what if he showed up when he wasn't supposed to? Like, say... during the Blood Gulch Chronicles? If he did, and the guys recognized him despite not knowing him at that point, it may be just the shock that they need to snap back to normal.
With the new plan, Donut and Wash jump forward to Blood Gulch. Donut arrives at the canyon... but Wash isn't there. Which of course he wouldn't be, this was before any of the BGC met him. Problem is that Donut doesn't know where he sent him. We cut to Wash, standing at a beached area. He tries to figure out where and when he currently is when a voice comes over the radio. A Lee Eddy voice... and there's no accent, so no it's not Chrovos. In other words... it's 479er calling from Command to find out where Wash is. Or, specifically, where Recovery One is. My friends, welcome back to Recovery One.
Review
This episode was short, clocking in at nine minutes, but man it was SO GOOD! I've been very curious about how this Wash and Donut dynamic would go. They haven't exactly had many interactions outside the S7 finale, and we all know how that went. But God... it is SUCH a good dynamic. They're both dorky morons, so there's that going for them. Donut's a little goofier and cheerful, Wash is more serious but still capable of his lighter moments. They really played off of each other well, both listening to each other and figuring out step by step their next course of action. It's funny, it moves things forward, and really sells this newfound comradery really well. Very well done~
Not only do the two characters play off each other well, but we got plenty of character development stuff. Donut's clearly still frustrated about not being listened to, especially when everyone goes and listens to Wash easily. Wash still has a TON of baggage towards Carolina and how she lied to him. He can't repress that, as we saw with the pure venom he directed at her even though she doesn't remember any of those events. And his hesitance when Donut brings up that they're going to have to save her after the guys... it hurt. I mean we all know that Wash will ultimately do it, but the fact that he hesitated because of how hurt Carolina made him feel... damn man. When Carolina gets her memory back, it is gonna hurt. And even with his own issues, Donut still tried to help Wash through his, which displays a lot of emotional maturity on his part. It's been really great to see more of Donut's character, and his and Wash's talk really shows how great they both are
There's plenty of feelsy moments, but also plenty of funny ones. S7's finale becoming a running gag is frekain' hilarious. Donut essentially resigning himself to his fate, Wash feeling guilty every single time, Simmons freaking out and just being confused by everything going on around him. Seriously, he's gonna be SO pissed when he comes to and realizes how many times he had to relive that moment. Also, Kimball's clear confusion when Wash gives his speech, haha! You can just feel the awkwardness emitting off of her. Lindsay only had like... two short lines, but God she nailed the mood. It was a great balance of hilarious and feelsy without feeling rushed or forced in. Jason has done such a great job with the writing, and this episode really shows his talents I feel.
What's also good is that so far, every episode has advanced the plot in some way. As much as I love S16 and will defend it from the more vicious hate it gets... yeah the pacing had issues. It had things happening, but it took far too long for Joe to get to anything truly impactful. I can see why he went that route, but it still made it kind of annoying that whenever it looked like we were getting to a plot point, it sidetracked to something else. I guess that he learned that when he plotted the season (or it's Jason's own doing) because every episode has moved things along swimmingly. There's very little padding or filler. We get to something, have a nice little time with it, and move to the next thing. Here we had a nice romp of the new S7 running gag, had Wash make an attempt with saving the guys, get a little character development for both him and Donut, and onto the next plot point. It's going fast, but it never feels rushed. Like... I'm starting to get why they may have gone with a 12 episode count because if that cut down on padding and needing to stretch things out to hit that count, it would hurt it more than help it.  
So now we come to what's coming up next. First, we now know the next plan: have Wash arrive at Blood Gulch and shock the guys into remembering since they shouldn't know Wash yet, but if they recognize him it'll do what Donut did to Wash in Episode 3. The only problem is... well, Wash wasn't at Blood Gulch during Blood Gulch. So hopefully Donut picked a point before everyone got transferred out, haha... anyways. So yeah... looks like Wash is about to relive Recovery One. Which leaves a TON of open possibilities. He has the chance to save certain people and correct any mistakes. Which means dealing with his lingering guilt and pain over everything. But he also has a mission: to save his current team. Which may mean having to abandon Recovery One which is not only going to cause plenty of problems with the Freelancers but having to abandon his old friends to save his current ones... yeah that is going to hurt. Considering that Miles 'I'm going to have Pyrrha die in the most heartbreaking way possible in RWBY' Luna is writing the next episode... yeah... prepare your graves, everyone.
So here's what I think is going to happen. Either at the end of next week's episode or in Episode 6, Wash will arrive in Blood Gulch and whoever is all still there will snap back to normal. The second half of the season will focus on both getting everyone left back to normal and on how to stop Chrovos before she breaks out and Genkins before he makes anything worst. And we still have plenty of feels material with Donut still being frustrated, Wash and Carolina's issues, and for conflicts that haven't come up in awhile... well... Grif still needs to know about Huggins. Boy is THAT ONE gonna be fun, haha... but yeah! I could be wrong, but I can't see them stretching out the memory stuff much longer, so the halfway point seems like a good place to get the majority out of it. We'll see.
Final Thoughts
This season has been great so far. Great Wash and Donut dynamic, a great blend of funny moments and character development, wasting no time in getting the plot moving, it's been such a fun ride. And with the ending, we have plenty more to look forward to. This is easily becoming a great season, and it hopefully just keeps getting better and better. Great episode and now, if you all will excuse me, it's time to prepare my grave for when Miles utterly breaks us all next week! Yay!!!

Girl, have you ever watched the voice usa? there's this constant topic of "bromance" between Adam Levine and Blake Shelton. So much so that literally almost every interview with them, brings it up. They constantly say I love you to the other and even kiss on the cheek. People ship them, even if Adam's married with kids and Blake was. And we in the j2 fandom get hate for literally this reason. J2 would have highlighted their 'bromance' more you know if it wasn't a romance 😏
A red carpet interview with Jensen on saturn awards, had an interviewer ask him if there’s bromance between J2 and he’s like “I don’t know you tell me”
omg lmaoooo i watched a “shevine” vid and yeah they are so playing on the bromance hahahaha, those guys have the behaviour of people with nothing to hide
and on this topic i’d like y’all to watch this vid, it’s a compilation of actors being confronted with gay rumours and how they react to it and those people are compared with louis and harry from 1D who are in a closeted relationship like j2 and you can see how larry completely and violently ignore and dismiss all those rumours, they say it’s weird and not normal that fans say that and meanwhile other actors and singers just play with those rumours and fuel them because they don’t care what people say and have nothing to hide
watch it, it’s really interesting
youtube
and notice that when they show clips of jake and heath on interviews for brokeback mountain it’s only heath who’s talking lololol
also the bit with jason seguel and paul rudd is SO FUNNY OMG xDDDDDD
those guys are awesome and you can be sure that if someone ever asks jared or jensen if they’re dating they would never laugh they would be petrified and like “uh what no no what” lol
i can’t find the saturn award video you’re talking about but i think i remember that and yeah that’s a weird response, he doesn’t wanna reduve their relationship to that, like j2 always normalize them living next to each other and being an extended family but they never act like the bromances from the marvel cast for example, they show they get along but they never play with the sexual undertones of that close relationship, at least not during public events (and yeah i lost my shit at jared saying he and jensen have a commune situation at kimmel yesterday, that was insane lol)
but the BEST example of j2 not playing on the bromance and being super awkward during public events like louis and harry are in that video is that classic bit from the critics choice movie award in 2014 and IM  LOSING MY SHIT EVERYTIME I SEE IT because you can feel the fear on jensen’s face and tone it’s incredible
you know it’s the “3 things you need to survive award show season” question and jensen answers “a beautiful date” and he looks at jared to see what jared was gonna say next but jensen IMMEDIATELY realised what turning towards jared after answering that looked like, so he turned AS FAST AS HE COULD towards his beard and was like “PULL UP PULL UP I HAVE A WIFE RIGHT THERE!!! FEMALE, WOMAN!!!” i mean just look at his face
and the interviewer BLESS HER INNOCENT SOUL HONESTLY just said “you have a beautiful date right there!” and SHE JUST WANTED TO MAKE A JOKE FFS!!
AND THEY BOTH IGNORED HER!! poor girl seriously, she’s innocent, she just wanted to make them laugh but she spooked them
it’s cult (starts at 3:25)
youtube
yeah it’s no bromance what j2 have haha
