If someone asked me at the end

I’d tell them put me back in it

“Francesca” by Hozier // The X-Files, “Tooms” // The X-Files, “Anasazi” // The X-Files, “The Field Where I Died”

#hello friends i am once again back to webweaving #behold my latest creation #the fruit of finally listening to hozier's new songs and realizing that some of the lyrics reminded me of my blorbos #but being at a loss to determine which ones and spending a full morning before i Realized #@jae i hope you appreciate my work #trust and stuff cinematic universe my beloved #red string and thumbtacks #the x files #otp: the only one i trust

#red string and thumbtacks #if this had happened in a piece of Christian Fiction(TM) it would have been so awful but here? spectacular #established for the audience (though i suppose it was something easily missed) all the way back in s2 that 'the Spirit is the Truth' #and then when she gets sick? we're told straight-out 'the Truth will save you; i think it'll save both of us' #and he may not know yet that the Spirit is the Truth. but she does!! and really her arc is about surrendering to it #and when the cure turns out to be a lie and she is absolutely doomed now and he is walking toward an uncertain fate ... #... she tells him simply 'you'll be in my prayers.' then there's the juxtaposition of him in the hearing while she prays with the priest #and suddenly he finds his answer! he is saved! (and the juxtaposition strongly indicates that it was her prayers protecting him) #and then later we learn that she is healed without any explanation to be found! #i just ... 'the Truth will save you; i think it'll save both of us' AND IT DID #anyway the light shines in the darkness and the darkness has not overcome it and i am never going to stop shouting about it

The Pokedex entry for Dusknoir saying that the species escorts people to the afterlife + Similar psychopomp figures sometimes being depicted with lanterns to help the souls they guide to the afterlife + PMD Dusknoir being able to make his markings light up + him asking Grovyle if his life will shine on as they were dying. There is something in there. I don't know what it is but there is something in there—

I did a little dubble check for you Bobbi (and for myself too lmao), about when Frey was exactly born. Cinta states that she was born just before the corruption entered Junoon. She tells Frey in the sequence when Frey leaves Praenost (in the distant memories sequence).

She probably only had a few hours to spare with Frey, and it freaking breaks my heart.

That's what I remembered, that basically Frey was born and Cinta had to send her away almost immediately. Not even a whole day with the baby she'd been so looking forward to meeting and raising )':

It's also one of the things that makes me think the Corruption happens because the Tantas go mad, not the other way around. When it entered Junoon Cinta knew she only had a short time left; the Corruption in her realm meant she was already losing her grip on sanity. She didn't have time before she'd fully lose her mind, so she sent her baby to somewhere she believed was safe.

And we can joke all we like about how dropping a fresh out the womb infant in the streets of NYC is distinctly not safe and probably a sign of Cinta's madness, but I like to believe she sent Frey to somewhere she was confident Al would find her, that she thought she was sending Frey to her dad. And maybe she did and something happened to him that put Frey in the foster system, or maybe she didn't, but either way I have to believe Cinta tried to get Frey to Al.

#forspoken #forspoken spoilers #Tanta Cinta #Frey Holland #asks #mistress-light #I'll have to check archive entries for dates on when the corruption enters realms and each Tanta shows signs of madness #but I'm pretty sure at least Sila went bananas noticeably before the corrupting miasma even showed up in Praenost #*le sighs* I need a corkboard a box of thumbtacks and some red string

WHISPERED SOULS GUYS.

seeing as it has that big motif for the giants in the middle and the title could pertain to the giant's marbles, i was 100% convinced this song only plays when angrboda is showing atreus the marbles for the first time, but that would be too simple so naturally i did some overthinking.

so ive been listening to the full song a lot, and theres a little interlude of atreus's theme at the beginning and i found myself thinking "this kind of sounds like that feeling when you move into a new home but something doesnt feel right", and that also applies to the marbles bit, BUT IT DOESNT PLAY AT THE MARBLES BIT.

IT PLAYS WHEN ATREUS IS IN HIS ROOM IN ASGARD. HES IN A NEW HOME BUT SOMETHING IS NOT RIGHT.

and then the scene transitions to from atreus to kratos doing the same action. WHISPERED SOULS.

#this is thumbtacks and red string at its peak #sorry if this doesnt mkae sense im going insane #gowr #god of war ragnarok #atreus #angrboda

About to lose my goddamn mind about the lore implications in today’s episode of Camlann to be perfectly honest

#catch me with some red string and thumbtacks #camlann

Thinking about

"I think I finally understand why the emperor wants you so badly. He's got the hots for you, doesn't he?" - Luz, "Agony of a Witch"

"Sounds like big bro got a hot witch girlfriend and little bro got upset." - Masha, "Thanks to Them"

I've decided to live in an alternate Universe where FNaF is about human children having adventures with their wacky animal shaped Ghost-Robot friends who can do a little murder, as a treat.

#i thought i was going to go to bed but instead i made this #anyway i am going ahead and claiming 'heat lightning' for the christians. #additionally there is. a very particular irony in using a detail from the life of the og protestant #(in the eyes of many anyway; luther was hardly original or unique in his quarrels with catholicism) #when dana scully is a catholic #but there's something about the bitter grief of the luther family that reminded me of this episode #grief is an awful thing to live with #and i can't imagine how agonizing it would be to lose a child in any time period #@jae enjoy this the fruit of my labor #the x files #rachel yells about religious themes in fiction #red string and thumbtacks

Didn't the voice mention having no spark?

Maybe that's why it can't speak properly it doesn't have the energy to (spark of life msm)

Yeah 18(8) did.

I had thought about it meaning the spark of life but I hadn't considered it being the reason why they're struggling to speak. Hmm

Had a 1984 book Revelation (that was absolutely a pun):

Mr. Goldstein supposedly was a very high-profile member who left “the party” and went on to publicly disprove the belief system… So assuming he isn’t a completely made-up lie………

Wouldn’t that make him their equivalent of Raymond Franz?

#I’ve got my thumbtacks and red string out lol #oh! and I found his book and downloaded it #yar har fiddley dee #I would support him but I need this book in my life NOW and I don’t wanna get burned at the stake for it #1984 book

Karen wheeler is either gonna die or become the next adoptive parent of the party. maybe even both

#pls why did she het a whole poster and icon #n i cant remember well but wasnt she like. the only parent (that doesnt know abt the upside down) that was shown during the last episode #her carrying holly protectively.... maam r u abt to die pls be honest #shes probably gonna be vecnad or some shit like what nancy saw #stranger things #karen wheeler #.darcy #ALSO !! with the first tag i do not mean it in a rude way. it is meant to be read like im holding a clipboard full of theories #taht one dude at the wall with hundreds of papers thumbtacked to it n red string wrapped sporadically around each one. tahts me #WHAT SECRETS DOES UR HAIR HOLD MRS WHEELER.

[daddy-socrates]

i feel like i like a conspiracy theorist who isn't even making a claim

#thesisposting #there's red yarn connected by thumbtacks but there are no photos or news articles. just more string

[mylittleredgirl]

it's actually really healthy and important to follow people who ship things i Do Not, because their posts making undeniable evidence out of random crumbs they found on the canon floor (sometimes the very same crumbs used as undeniable evidence for a different ship by someone else in the very next post) creates an excellent outside perspective for how i am also winding a red string around thumbtacks on a conspiracy board every time i log on to the otp hive mind. keeps me humble.

#i mean obviously except for mulder and scully in every single season #chris carter is the one who's wrong there #chris carter circa 1998 giving very serious interviews about how mulder and scully are NOT romantic at ALL #in magazines with david duchovny and gillian anderson half naked in bed on the cover #but god imagine how bad things would have gone if he WAS trying to write a romantic relationship from jump #i shudder to think

Watching you tma post is so much fun. You are going full thumbtacks and red string but this is the thumbtacks and red string podcast so your actually surprisingly close to the truth most of the time.

It's great because I have no notes anywhere I'm just shoving all the information in my head and hoping they don't fall out
