#suffice it to say i've been on a deep dive
Text
okay so i reread the good omens script book trying to look up a quote i remembered and i kept writing down the things that i absolutely loved about it, so here's just a list of all the quotes and moments that rewired my brain chemistry
aziraphale sasses the hell out of crowley about his antichrist birth organization skills
aziraphale saying “oh sugar” instead of oh shit...
first appearance of everyday by buddy holly, we all know how that turned out
aziraphale doesn’t know how an ansaphone works. this was in the book too, but it’s still funny, especially considering how in radio omens he at least knows about caller id
aziraphale brought shortbread for the drive to the convent. did he think it was a date? please say yes
crowley asked aziraphale if heaven wouldn’t give him (crowley) asylum and aziraphale was going to ask him the same about hell
aziraphale says “what the hell” after pointedly not swearing earlier. hypocrite ass
aziraphale is fine with killing the antichrist himself but gets upset about the humans killing each other at tadfield manor....more tasty hypocrisy. he thinks he can only ever do the Right Thing but he knows it's Wrong when anyone else does it
“aziraphale is rather enjoying having the upper hand in the ideas department for once”
crowley says “dude. chill.”
“for a moment his noble better nature rejects the idea out of hand. THEN HE FALLS...”
“aziraphale is softening. they haven’t spoken in a hundred years: he’s realizing they are still friends.” gets me every time i look at it
why was shadwell in prison?? america explain
“i work in soho, i hear things” patron saint of soho confirmed
i still think that the neon halo blinking on and off above aziraphale’s head is the HARDEST that neil gaiman has ever gone and that we deserved to see it in the final cut
"michael: when your cause is just you do not hesitate to smite the foe, aziraphale." i'm thinking thoughts about the s2 finale under this lens; when your cause is just (saving the love of your life) you do not hesitate to suffer for pursuing it
“crowley looks back. he looks at aziraphale. above them, a beautiful starry sky. and crowley softens.” jesus janthony christ.
“aziraphale is looking for someone. he spies a human statue dressed as an angel, with wings. it’s not him.” GOD
gabriel about aziraphale: “i’m disappointed in him. not thinking like an angel.”
crowley “looks up, and talks to god, in the classical fashion.” see i really want a script book for s2 because i want to see aziraphale's expressions of faith plucked out a little bit more
crowley in the cinema: “he’s waiting for the end of the world. out of time. out of hope.”
the fact that crowley saw aziraphale walking down the street and left dagon on read is priceless
aziraphale looks hurt after crowley says he won’t even think about him
the music for the gavotte scene was recommended to be “i am a courtier grave and serious” from gilbert and sullivan’s the gondoliers which is PERFECT
“aziraphale is heading down the street, looking harried and as if he is carrying the weight of the world on his shoulders. which he is.”
sandalphon says “you know how we treat traitors in wartime?” to aziraphale and there was meant to be blood on aziraphale’s lips after sandalphon punches him. death to sandalphon
“why would you do this? we’re the good guys.”
aziraphale (resolutely not swearing): you. you B…AD angels.
“seducing women to do your evil will!” “i think perhaps you’ve got the wrong shop.” still the campiest line delivery i've ever seen
we don't need to speculate about crowley being in tears in the burning bookshop because according to the script he is canonically right on the verge of it
“right. i’m done. i’ve had it. i don’t care about any bloody angels or humans or anyone. i hate you all. somebody killed my best friend, and i don’t even care who did it. bastards, all of you.” 😭
when aziraphale is discorporated, his heavenly appearance is all his normal clothes but gleaming white
aziraphale: i have no intention of fighting in any war.
“all angels on the floor turn and look at the angel who has said the unsayable.”
aziraphale can’t actually see crowley in the bar scene…he has no idea how wrecked his best friend is
aziraphale doesn’t take sugar with his tea. bastard
aziraphale crosses his fingers under the table when answering shadwell’s nipple question
aziraphale is wearing madame tracy’s pink motorbike helmet in the mirror of her scooter
they describe crowley’s suit in the burning bentley as “interestingly ripped”...........we were robbed of a crowley boob window moment and i'll never forget
aziraphale introduces crowley to madame tracy as “he’s…well, we’re sort of business associates.” you know, like a liar
aziraphale was fully about to murder adam. i don’t think i can stress this enough
aziraphale pokes himself to make sure he’s solid once he’s separated from madame tracy
aziraphale isn’t threatening crowley with the sword, “just making his point that he can do dangerous out-of-character things if he needs to.”
crowley: what if the almighty planned it this way all along? from the very beginning
aziraphale: takes a drink from the bottle of wine
aziraphale looks like he’s going to cry when crowley reminds him that the bookshop burnt down 😭
aziraphale-as-crowley looks depressed 😭 he still thinks his bookshop is gone
the angels kidnapping crowley-as-aziraphale zip-tied his hands those dickheads
aziraphale-as-crowley: my friend! they’re kidnapping my friend!
the hit hastur gives aziraphale-as-crowley would have killed a human 0/10 wahoos
“the van with [crowley-as-]aziraphale in it drives away, and [aziraphale-as-]crowley tries to crawl after it.” HEY NEIL I JUST WANT TO TALK
crowley-as-aziraphale says “what fun. i love a barbecue.”
i am literally ENRAGED that sandalphon was like “hell yeah you can hit aziraphale” to the minor demon who brought the hellfire i WILL throw hands
uriel calls it a barbecue too those fuckers
in the script uriel and sandalphon have their flaming swords drawn, so it wasn't going to be as insidious as expecting aziraphale to walk into the flame of his own volition. but they didn’t end up including it in the show, so it is that insidious after all
aziraphale-as-crowley keeping his socks on for the bath was such a choice
“he doesn’t actually have a newspaper and a cigar, but damn, he’s enjoying himself in his bath”
i've seen so little talk about how absolutely ice cold aziraphale is in the bath scene with the whole “so you’re probably thinking, ‘if he can do this, i wonder what else he can do’? and very, very soon, you’re all going to get the chance to find out.” BECAUSE THAT SHIT IS TERRIFYING
aziraphale-as-crowley: michael. duude.
crowley and aziraphale both get out of their own elevators and meet up to walk out together which is poetic cinema
PIGBOG AND THE OTHER MOTORCYCLE IDIOTS THAT HUNG OUT WITH DEATH WERE GOING TO BE INCLUDED i miss them
#suffice it to say i've been on a deep dive#part of the reason i love the book so much is just all the little details that a tv show just can't spare the time for#and the script has so many lovely little tidbits that make me rewatch episodes hunting for a scrap of their existence#like i was Looking for that shortbread man i remember that vividly#i'll probably look again later too#ugh ugh ugh what a time to be alive was season 1#and if there's a script book for s2 you bet your ass i'll be deep diving again#good omens#oxly hollers

BECKY hold up! Are you writing a pre series Laurel fic?
not technically, no, but there is some exploration of the period of time just after the gambit went down and what that was like for laurel in the next chapter of htlgi, so i've got young laurel on my mind.
(spoiler alert: turns out a deeply unhealthy and overly public relationship that ends in public humiliation and crushing grief in the toxic decade that was the 2000s fucks you up for life. i have no idea why people were surprised when laurel ended up struggling with depression and substance abuse.)
#yeah the next two chapters of htlgi are...a lot#we're doing a deep dive into htlgi laurel and why she is the way she is and boy it's rough#for example here are some of the trigger warnings for the next chapter:#mental instability. pregnancy/childbirth as body horror. severe postpartum depression. being a girl in the 2000s. the mother wound.#suffice to say laurel is not having a fun time#.....i kind of am though#i've just been waiting so long to get to the true horror climax and we're so close#asks#anon#fic: how the light gets in

Writerly (And Artistic) Thumbprint Challenge!
I was tagged by the lovely @hannahcbrown to try this out!
Rules: look back on your work, both past and present, finished and unfinished. what are five (or more!) narrative elements, themes, topics or tropes that continuously pop up in your work?
I'm gonna tag a few fine feathered folks for this, and let them circulate it out to the rest of the mutuals and see what we can come up with :3
Tagging: @paraparadigm, @changelingsandothernonsense, @friend-of-giants, @oblivions-dawn, @thana-topsy, @saltymaplesyrup, @thequeenofthewinter, @rhiannon1199, @tallmatcha, @airiat, @the-storytellers-seer, @orfeoarte -- and more. If you are not tagged, please, do absolutely consider yourself tagged and tag me back. And always tag the mutuals even if they've already been tagged. Pile on the tags so we can all see the cool stuff we each come up with. (:
Under the cut for some observations.
I have written a lot over the years and most of it is not fic, but here is what I can observe from original, fic, poetry and nonfiction. These are in no particular order, though I saved the best for last.
Identity
I like to write about what makes a person themselves. A lot of my early spoken word poetry talked about body image and how to exist in a world like ours as a person who is not considered thin. Some of my favorite nonfiction pieces discussed what it was like to be a college student working retail and being recognized as other-than-a-retail-worker in public and how identity shifts between roles. In my fic, I explore a few things like what makes a hero a hero? Who are you when change/fate/destiny upends everything you've ever known? How do you become the person you're supposed to be?
Strength
Especially in a lot of my fic, posted or otherwise, I think this crops up perhaps almost as much as identity. What does it mean to be strong? What sort of events do we weather and get to the other side of it? For who are we strong? Is being strong the same as being brave? What kinds of strength do we need in our daily lives and how does it affect our decisions? In the fic, we see a lot of the strength to overcome adversity by nature of the quest. But we also see, which dives into another point, the strength to forgive, the strength to confront ourselves for our behavior, and the strength to move forward, even when it hurts.
Friendship
Ah, the power of friendship :> But no, even in a lot of my fic WIP ideas and fragments, there's a lot to be said of relationships within fiction that show different kinds of love and support than what is expected of a certain pairing or tag. There are a ton of different expressions of love, and I think one of the most underutilized is strong, solid friendships. This also incorporates found family or portraying a group of people who have decided against all odds that they will go out of their way for one another regardless of circumstances. When I write good friendships, I do it because it reminds me irl that we are worthy of this kind of support and we are capable of giving this kind of support, and not everything has to be as one-dimensional as popular media can sometimes show. Fic is the perfect place to explore it because it's decoupled from marketing, generally, and we don't have to worry too much about what sells (: So I lean into it where and when I can.
Mistakes
This one is kind of rather broad. I could have listed specific kinds of mistakes but then we'd be here forever LOL but suffice to say I do write flawed characters that don't always know the next right thing. In my poetry, I talked about the mistakes I've made and observed in my time. I have given some of the mistakes I've made and observed to my characters in original and especially in World. Part of this category though is asking the question of how do these mistakes affect others? What does it take to forgive? Can they be forgiven, and why or why not? Is the character flaw so deep that there is no redemption for them? Are there certain kinds of mistakes that change who a person is completely? What is the cost of forgiveness? There's a lot to play with in this category without even having to get down to specifics. :>
Hope
This is my favorite thing to write into any of my work ever. Perhaps because real life can be so very difficult and can seem so very bleak sometimes. Combined with everything above, I absolutely write hope into things, even if my stories seem rather bleak at the outset. For World, all of my POV characters have bits and pieces of tragedies that I have had to endure in my life and it's extremely cathartic to see them get through their drama, hardship, grief, self-inflicted chaos, and other things. Because it reminds me that there is hope yet for this place, if there is hope in their world. It is a form of healing for me to put them in situations they can get out of. So hope. The most important theme, I think, for my writing. (:

WIP Weekend Game
Thanks @14carrotghoul @inexplicablymine @happiness-of-the-pursuit @gwiazdziarka @daisymae-12 @myheartalivewrites and @kiwiana-writes for tagging me!!
1. WIP List:
I'm not even going to include OQ fics here, because that list would be a mile long... So if we're counting ideas that are only in my head, it's just:
-The Beauty Within (high school AU)
- Divergent AU
-post-Kensington AU
2. Which of your WIPs is currently the longest?
Definitely The Beauty Within (high school AU), the other two are only ideas so far... Although the Kensington AU technically has words, but they're just the prompt I was given, and the Divergent AU has the drabble I wrote one week.
3. Which WIP do you expect will end up the longest?
I'm sure Divergent will be long too, but since I just finished the outline for it this morning, I'm going to go with The Beauty Within (high school AU), I'm about to post chapter 4 and there's going to be 21 chapters including the epilogue
4. Which WIP is your favorite to write/the most enjoyable to write? Why?
I guess I'll have to go with the high school AU, but I also can't wait to get into the Divergent AU, I love the first two books!!
5. Which WIP do you find the most intimidating to write? Why?
Post-Kensington AU or Divergent, only because both of them will involve a form of angst I'm not great at writing.
6. Which WIP do you experience the most self-doubt about. Why?
ALL OF THEM. See the last question for the two I haven't started yet, but for The Beauty Within, it's that it's my first multichapter in this fandom, and I know I didn't make Alex likeable... And he's the only narrator so far. But both the POV and Alex's likeability will change as the fic progresses, I promise!
7. Which of your WIPs will you seek out a beta/sensitivity reader for? Why?
Divergent AU for sure, mostly because of the "I'm bad at science" aspect of the first stage of Dauntless training
8. Have any of your WIPs been struck by the curse of writer's block?
I've definitely had it before, but not for RWRB yet!
9. Which WIP has your favourite OC? Tell us about them?
Ooh, this is giving me ideas to add to my outline... Suffice it to say that the fact that they mention a girl from the Spiderman movies in the books gives me an excuse to have a character named Zendaya, and now, I have plans for her!
10. Which WIP is the sexiest?
Lol if you knew my writing, you wouldn't be asking this question 😂
11. Which WIP is the angstiest?
Probably going to be... Actually, might be a tie between the Divergent AU and Kensington AU, although the high school AU has its fair share too!
12. Which WIP has the best characterisation (in your humble opinion)?
I'm hoping it'll be my high school AU (guys, I have actual character development planned. That's not quite a first for me, but close!), but it'll probably be the Divergent AU since I have something to bounce off of.
13. Which WIP has the best scene setting (in your humble opinion)?
Ooh... Probably going to be Divergent?
14. Which WIP have you worked the hardest on?
The high school AU for sure!
15. Which WIP do you have the highest expectations for? Why?
Probably the Divergent AU, since I love the first couple books so much!
16. Do you dream about any of your WIPs?
I've almost never even had a fandom dream, so no- but I wish! Then I could get ideas from them!
17. Do any of your WIPs have particular complexities that your other fics don't?
Maybe the high school AU... But I'm not going to say why yet! You'll all find out not in the chapter I'm posting tomorrow, but the chapter after that...
18. Which fic is the funniest or has the most humor?
My sense of humor is so picky that this is a great question... I'm going to have some great Claremont-Díaz sibling interactions in the high school AU, though!
19. Do any of your WIPs contain outside POVs or a deep dive on a character other than the main ship? How are you finding that process?
My high school AU will also feature Junora in a prominent role, so I'm excited about writing those two! Especially Nora, for her, it'll be a first, and I haven't written much for June.
20. Tell us one thing we don't know about one or more of your WIPs
Henry's home life is VERY different from Alex's in my high school AU... And that's all I'll say!
Tagging @celeritas2997 @heybuddy-drabbles @believingispowerfulmagic and @read-and-write- , but no pressure!

⚓️🍒🌊☔️🍁
Welcome to Raggimuffin! We are your friends and we will be using this space to talk about ourselves and share whatever we feel like! :p
But first, let's introduce ourselves, shall we?
🍒
My name is Cherry Fizz. I make music, but I prefer to just listen. You can hear me play in Canterlot, I spin records at the local jazz club, but I visit Ponyville with my friends whenever I can. I like my alone time, I like the night life, I like to spend nights on the town and days taking in the afternoons. I'm the "leader" of the blog, and will probably be taking the most out of all my friends, although who knows! Maybe they will come out of their shell as time goes on. I'll introduce myself in more detail later, but for now, let's meet the crew:
🌊
Hey bros. The name is Rocky Coast. But you can call me Rocky. Or just Rocks. Or just Coast. Aww, you can call me whatever you want, just don't call me late for dinner ha ha! I used to live in Ponyville, but I've yearned for the sea ever since I got my cutie mark. I work as a lobsterpony on the east equestrian cost, fishing up some food for our carnivore friends here in Equestria, be them creature, animal, or monster. It pays alright but the real joy of it comes from being out on the water and smelling that salty air. Ain't nothing quite like it.
🍁
Hello everycreature! My name is Adere, and I live in Ponyville. And let me tell you, I just love ponies so much, I just had to leave the Everfree forest and join in! I'll be honest, it's been a very hard transition, but with these ragamuffins by my side, I'm sure there's nothing I can't accomplish! One more thing I want to say, is that I'm going through some very difficult and tough times right now. The details are very personal, but suffice it to say I will probably be pretty quiet for the time being while I adjust to some drastic, but important, life changes. Rest assured, I'll do my best to chime in!
☔️
oh. hello. i'm Rainy Thistle... well. you can probably tell by looking at me that i'm a weird pony. i have a glass belly. a splotchy coat. and a black pattern on my front hooves and my wings. no, i didn't dip them in ink. i live in Ponyville with my brother. he's not really friends with us though. i don't know if anypony else likes him very much, or if he likes them. but he takes care of me. i work for the weather patrol in Ponyville. but they keep sending me out to herd the Everfree forest clouds. they probably do it so i'll quit. i don't think they like me very much either. even though i try very hard and do my best… i still can never get anything right. oh. sorry, I didn't mean to get all mopey. i like flowers and soft music and i like my friends. the ragamuffin crew are my very best friends, and my only friends, and they are so so nice to me. i hope you like them too
⚓️
Ahoy! I hope you meet us on our next post, where Cherry will give us a better deep dive on what you can expect here! Please pardon our dust, we’ve never used tumblr like this before, and we expect things to be a little bit messy. All help would be appreciated: we’re going to need it!!!
#mlp g4#mlp#mlp oc#oc blog#Raggimuffin#in character#multiple bloggers#i'm new here#i'm new to tumblr#sorry#///

I have sent many asks to you before filled with honest yet corny-as-hell sentimental bullshit about how much your blog, and you by extension, means to me— even if we don’t even really know each other. But if this isn’t a better time to actually buckle down and give you a proper “thank you,” than I don’t know what is.
I found your blog a while back, sometime early last summer if I remember correctly, through your Guilty Gear scans. It was around the time I first started actively hunting down whatever remnants of a Guilty Gear fandom were scattered across the internet, and luckily I hit the jackpot with Tumblr (amongst other sites.) God bless whatever made you make this blog, cause the things it has done for me since then have been tremendous. From small things like your discussions about music and your random posts about vintage technology that inevitably prompt me to do deep-dives on the subject, or bigger things like your entire translation or scanning projects that open me to an entire new world of Guilty Gear media, your blog has taught me about so many new things that have molded me into the person I am today, and suffice to say, I’m proud of that person. You have introduced me to new singers, bands, books, movies, games, shows; so many goddamn things and the majority of them have turned out to be things I simply enamor. Beyond that, your art has helped me improve on my own art and has inspired me to make so much more work and work even harder. Plus, you also brought back my obsession with dragons! I used to be enthralled by dragons; collecting paintings, statues, plushies, books, you name it and I probably have it. And just to like them once more due to my exposure with the content you churn out (wether original or reblogged) is something I can also say I am grateful for. Even just ranting about personal interests in your asks or asking if you perhaps enjoy the same things that I do is something that makes me happy.
I don’t want to make you uncomfortable by saying this, but I seriously do see you as a sort of “big brother” figure in my life. It’s a parasocial relationship, sure, but I have found solitude and comfort in your blog, and even a sort of aspiration to be like you. Either way, the truth is your blog has helped me so much this year and has brought me so much more happiness than what I had before. You have seriously helped me become a better person, better in loving myself and finding something to love in the world around me as well.
So, thank you. Thank you for this blog and for everything you post on here. Thank you, and happy new years. I hope next year gives you nothing but unadulterated love. You deserve it.
Ok so, for an uncountable amount of times this has happened now, I typed a really lengthy reply to this and then cut a section of text to move it and Tumblr decided that meant "delete the whole post except the cut text and then close the post editor, deleting everything forever." It is 3:30am. I'm going to summarize what I wrote as I type it for the second time. The last two paragraphs are the only sections from the first draft that got saved.
--
First off, I apologize for taking so long to reply to this. Your message is extremely heartfelt and sincere and, when I got it (around noon), I wanted to think on it for a little and reread it a few times before replying.
I'm... not great... at accepting compliments. For a lot of my life I've been picked on for my physical appearance and interests so I learned how to take advantage of my size and how to project a pissed off aura to get people to leave me alone. It works very well. Online that doesn't work, and I wouldn't want it to, but offline I think I can be kind of a grumpy asshole. I try really hard to only appear to be that way. After making kids/babies cry just from being in the same space as them though, it can be difficult to think otherwise. I'm not used to people being this kind to me, let alone even admiring or looking up to me.
But the online format is nice; people just see me as an icon and if they don't like my posts/interests they can close the tab or filter it instead of making it my problem. Being able to talk about whatever on here and finding other people that also think it's interesting has helped me a lot too. Before getting into Guilty Gear around August 2021, this blog was mostly just an art reference blog with a very, very, small amount of personal posts scattered in-between when it was something I wanted to archive (like when I started HRT).
I started doing scans because I wanted to send a specific illustration to someone but could only find it in a low resolution. Since I had the GGX '07 art book and a scanner, I figured I might as well just scan it myself and it all sort of snowballed from there. The GG community has been incredibly motivating and I don't see myself quitting doing these scans/translations until there's nothing left to scanlate. Guilty Gear has done so much for me and I love the games and its setting probably more than any other series I've ever been into.
Know that I really, truly, appreciate you sending me this message. I have a little folder of nice messages like yours that I keep to look through on bad days. They genuinely mean a lot to me.
It's such an honor that the things I've posted about have inspired you and lead you to new interests, too, and I hope that I can keep motivating and inspiring you. 2023's gonna be a good year, I think, and I hope you get some of that unadulterated love too.
#asks#long post#I started typing my first reply at 1:30 and now it's 3:30 GOD I'm so mad Tumblr deleted my first draft.............#Next time I'm typing it in Notepad s2g#Anyway I'm sorry if any of this comes across as curt or if it's worded weirdly I'm falling asleep on my laptop hhhhhhhhhh

You don't think they ever dated, so does this mean you don't think they ever had anything, FWB or anything that crossed platonic? There's been too much questionable things with Jikook, to not at least think they messed around in some way. GCF Tokyo being significant & the 2018 MMA's. JK's behavior toward JM during these two things. I genuinely think he felt more then friendly feelings for JM back then. IDK if they acted on it, but I do feel there was something mutual, even if it was one night.
I've brought up 2018 MMA before and frequently. It's one of the rare instances where, in that era, Jikook were "interesting" to me and exhibited questionable behavior.
My opinion on GCFT is highly unpopular, and I really don't want to go through the whole dance again. Suffice to say, it doesn't even make my Top 5.
That said, no, I've never thought they were dating or FWB. At most? Mutual attraction, and given how isolated the members were before CH2, it would make sense that flirting would have been a natural outlet, so that was something I had entertained as well. This last part actually opens up interesting discussions about dynamics in isolation, but as it is, I no longer care enough to do these deep dives.

I simply wanted to thank you for the analysis that you did on mykr revue in the movie, my mind is truly blown away and I'm on my knees 🛐 I love them and I thought surely they couldn't get any better in my mind; and suffice to say that I've never been happier to be proven wrong! You are incredible and so kind for writing your thoughts down and sharing it with the class. They'll never leave my mind for good after that, for sure; and I can't thank you enough for that 💖 I hope you have a great day and wonderful weekend!
This was so nice, what the heck! Honestly reactions like this make it absolutely worth it to have worked so hard on the deep dives!
But yeah, Claudine and Maya have been stuck in my mind as well. Actually their Revue was the first one I wanted to write back when I started the Deep Dives, so I'm happy I can help them get stuck in your head as well!
#not to expose myself as a Reddit user but username checks out#and that's the best part really#I should wholeheartedly compliment people more too actually#asks

Conversation
Conversation between Blitz Lumpkin and Pixlee Trollsom on that old couch beside a certain spring for no reason or other:
PIXLEE TROLLSOM: If you ask me, Blitz, it just seems like yesterday when that Trollywood star Lola LaTrolla was here to make a movie, and how we managed to destroy the whole.
BLITZ LUMPKIN: And all because I had this rather juvenile-like crush on her ... even if her voice sounded a little bit pompous.
PIXLEE: And as I recall it, Blitz, the production company was just interested in using you and Lola for a quick buck, shoot the film in a hurry and get it released quickly.
BLITZ: Still, wasn't Lola rather gorgeous-looking opposite me?
PIXLEE, giggling slightly: Snirkles, Blitz--she may have looked tacky in that leopard-skin coat--
BLITZ: And I recall wearing one quite similar in the production as well. Still, looking back, it just seemed a childish mistake to fall for Lola as I did. Even if she admitted that "I'd LOVE to go swinging through the vines with you, Trollzan!"
PIXLEE, giggling all the more: That voice of Lola's--if you ask me, that was a bit campy-sounding!
BLITZ: Even crazier was this underwater scene where Lola and I were diving utterly naked and I--
PIXLEE: Let me guess--experienced "those feelings" in the presence of Lola?
BLITZ: I admit things felt a little crazy there during the shoot, but did we learn later that Lola was herself something of a freediver in her own right. Which must be rather naturally Trollish, come to think of it.
PIXLEE: And now that you mention it ... remember that time some months after that cinematic disaster, when we were at Troll Lake Beach and found Lola LaTrolla "herself" in that rather tacky trolltique, even inviting us on her pontoon for a little bit of trollventure in that rather remote cove on Troll Lake?
BLITZ: Ohhhh, I remember now.... And I believe Lola's invited us back several times since, out of friendship more than anything else. And boy, can SHE freedive like the best of them!
PIXLEE: As you say, Blitz, such must be "rather naturally Trollish" for us to enjoy freediving as we do. But still, those times we've been diving with Lola must seem rather crazy, if at times rather fun as well.
BLITZ: And remember that time Lola guided us into an underwater passageway that led to a rather wonderful sort of underwater grotto--and we encountered this rather trollrific-looking mertroll?
[For some reason, LOLA LaTROLLA comes into the scene and enters the conversation]
LOLA LaTROLLA, slightly seductively: Did I hear you say "mertroll" just now? [Pause] Still, I couldn't help but overhear such wonderful memories of past diving trollventures we've certainly had. Never mind that I've become something of a Trollywood "has-been" all the more.
PIXLEE, trying not to look all the more awkward: Uh--Lola, Blitz and I have been talking about you for awhile here, and the memories of such times we've had with you on occasion.
BLITZ: Yeah, Lola ... you still remember that film shoot, that underwater scene in particular where I suddenly had that "wet dream" all of a sudden over you?
LOLA, trying hard to forget: YOU--Blitz Lumpkin--playing Trollzan in that rather forgettable movie shoot? And we were underwater? [Slightly taken aback] Oh yes--I remember now ... you were madly in love over me, and we were supposed to be diving, eventually giving a rather deep kiss in the depths--and all of a sudden, there was this whitish-looking cloud in the water coming from between your legs! I couldn't help but chuckle at the sight for hours!!
BLITZ: Which was understandable.
PIXLEE: And was just an accident.
LOLA, sensing something in the air: So would it be too much to imagine ourselves going into a little freediving frenzy here in this spring?
PIXLEE: Not a bad idea ... but I admit that such was just an afterthought between Blitz and myself; we were just talking over old memories and had no real intention to dive anyway.
LOLA: In any case, be glad for the eventuality. I brought along some towels for after the dive ... and what's more, isn't it more comfortable for Trolls like us to dive naked, to be all the closer to Nature?
BLITZ: Now that you mention it, Lola ...
[In any event, this rather unlikely trio goes into a rather wonderful freedive in the same spring where Blitz and Pixlee can otherwise be seen sitting besides from time to time pondering various Trollish mysteries, watching the sunsrt, that sort of thing. Suffice it to say that the dive turned out rather trollishly wonderful, with an especially spectacular highlight being the three, all naked, kneeling on the bottom of the spring and engaging in a "friendship ring" not uncommon among Trolls in a number of situations.]
