I think Amber was genuinely so good for Wilson. She understood him more than most people, and she encouraged his independence. She genuinely wanted him to put himself first and do things he wanted instead of just doing things he thought others wanted. And a lot of that was able to happen because she herself was incredibly independent. She wasn't the stereotypically "needy" person Wilson had been drawn to before, so she wouldn't stand for his attempts at being a martyr. She stood up to House, too, but she also cared about him in her own way because Wilson cared about him. She appreciated their relationship and went out of her way to work things out with House for Wilsons sake. I have a lot to say about why I think all of Wilson's female relationships failed and why I think that was caused by his internalized struggle with his sexuality, but I stand by the fact that I think Amber was actually good for him and one of, if not the most, healthy relationship he had in the show.

what implications do u think the amelia investigations episode (possibly) being last has......
thinking about it im not sure implications is the word i was really looking for, rather i think theres like. a particular weight, to me, in placing her episode as the last one (presuming, of course, that there are only 5 episodes in investigations like is generally whats being assumed. for all we know though there could be more than that but thats the assumption im working off of)
ive always read the lack of any particularly tangible details about her pre-plane life, let alone the lake of an actual disappearance scene for her, as a means of further alienating her from her previous life. It drives in this wedge between Amelia and Scenty, such that even though shes probably the most vocal (at least throughout s1) about wanting to go home, her desire is countered by the fact that pretty much her entire existence in the show is defined by exclusively her time on the plane. The lack of a background for her (as absolutely crazy as it drives me) does play a pretty notable role in how her relationship to earth and the plane and herself are laid out.
This, in my mind, creates a bit of an interesting situation for investigations to play with. seemingly, investigations kinda requires an exploration into everyone's pre-plane lives, a certain insight into their lives that amelia just doesnt have. so, unless they do something a bit radical in the presentation of that episode in particular, youd have to explore her old life on some level without undermining the dynamic with it that we already have. I guess the most obvious answer is that it wont be amelia telling her own story to the audience. We wont be hearing her explain or be in her perspective, we'll be hearing from (presumably) garret. Its a story about her that isnt her story to tell. even when we do finally get to see it, her life, her disappearance isnt hers. not really. and i think placing it last in the sequence, the final mystery to unravel, the hardest answer to get, implies at the very least an acknowledgement of that.
but i do have a degree in Reading Into Things so like. who knows. maybe thats just what i want

HELLO WIFI nightly thoughts anon again, first of all wish you to enjoy your vacation! Then I love reading so much about Marine and Arlecchino it was soo sweet ! I'd like to know more about Marine story if possible, you mentionned she can't see and has artificial skin, is she a puppet similar to Scaramouche and got broken or was she created blind ?
ohohoho you're encouraging meeeeeeee eheheheheheeheh :]
Marine is sort of like Scaramouche in that she's an artificial creation of an archon- she's specifically referred to as a "doll" at several points rather than a puppet
she's a creation of Focalors specifically to help guide Furina and keep her company (and on the right path), since Focalors knew that false godhood is a very long and lonely process, and thus Marine has a kind and motherly nature even if she doesn't completely understand it which often make young children and Melusine feel safe and protected around her. Focalors specifically made her without sight, since she wanted Marine to embody the phrase "justice is blind", and ever since then Marine has been looking after Furina and helping her and Neuvillette run Fontaine, which is why i said she's considered third in Fontaine's hierarchy
a few things about Marine's body specifically:
-she has visible ball joints like a porcelain doll, and her skin has the texture of porcelain as well
-the areas around her joints are decorated with wave-like engravings
-the energy used to power her comes from Pneuma-Ousia reactions inside her body
-her heart is made of the purest chunk of Condessence Crystal and is extremely important. if her heart is sufficiently damaged, Marine will shut down. it can be replaced, but crystals of such high purity and size are extremely hard to find
-because of what she's made of, Marine's body can crack and limbs can break off, but those can be repaired
-Marine can't see anything, not even light, and her lack of a need for sleep means she takes many nighttime walks
-does not have a Vision, her affinity with Hydro is natural thanks to Focalors
-her Arkhe is Ousia
-she rarely opens her eyes since her irises and pupils are completely white and she thinks humans might find it frightening
-she is waterproof and spends a lot of her limited free time underwater :]
Marine is the one who taught Furina how to fight (just in case!) and uses a rapier that's part of her parasol (the umbrella part is actually water that's being held in place). she was also fairly lonely due to Furina pushing her away and most of Fontaine's citizens finding her dependable but unnerving but has made more friends since Fontaine became more accepting and less formal over the years- she and Navia are close and Neuvillette is basically her best friend for life, while Wriothesley holds her in high regard because she occasionally does work for the Fortress. Marine's usually calm and gentle, but she's unafraid to become violent if anyone threatens her loved ones, and is very proficient at using her sword
and yes, Arlecchino knows. she's one of the only people who knows of Marine's nature, other than Furina and Neuvillette
(please ask me more about Arlecchino and Marine i go insane about them every day)

'oh so changing gender is all fine and dandy but when-' bro if a cishet guy started saying he would 'change' lesbian women you would laugh at him and call him homophobic (like a normal person would do) PLEASE shut up you biphobic shitface. being mspec isnt evil, liking men and women isnt evil, lesbians do not like men, gays dont like women, etc.
being bi isnt evil, being pan isnt evil, being omni isnt evil, etc.
'listen to history-' the history of 'bi lesbian' is rooted in transphobia and terf bs, yet anyone who disagrees with you is a terf..?
it was used to belittle lesbians who'd date trans women, saying that they were actually just bi, that trans women didn't count as 'real women'
but then again, since you consider trans men ''to still be forever linked to womahood forever and ever like theyll always be a girl forever and ever im not transphobic guys im actually so much super exinclusive because i support uh corrective rape uh men fetishizing lesbians uh i mean uh we support ''anti-terfism'' (insert that shitty 'pleading face' here)'' i wouldnt put that past you.

My mom trying to accept the fact that I am gay is so funny to me like the bitch interrogated me until I came out to her and now anytime the topic of me being bisexual comes up ((which is always brought up by her btw)) her face is always the physical representation of the "its rotten work. especially to me. especially if it's you. i'll do it but christ alive" text post
