ever thought about a love triangle between yan childe and yan neuvillette 🫣?????? imagine y/n being married to neuvillette—and tbf i think being married to him would be miserable…considering the circumstances (it’s less a marriage and more like eternal imprisonment), so the thought of betraying neuvillette gives you some semblance of control. it’s just, no one expected you to betray him with the 11th fatui harbinger…
I LOVE this for the simple fact that I think y/n would not understand how peaceful life is with Neuvillette until Childe takes them on.
Neuvillette is old. He's lived hundreds of years and he's insanely powerful and well liked. Sure, marriage to him is like a prison sentence, you're never leaving him, but at least he lets you wander the city and have hobbies. He's patient.
Childe though, Childe knows just enough to put on a prince charming persona and convince you that there's more out there. Sure, more means being his wife and being his pretty little thing, but you already do that with Neuvillette, surely it can't be any more difficult, right?
Childe convinces you to leave with him, to escape late at night when the timing is perfect. A bit of hope rises in you at the thought of being free, but Childe isn't going to take you to Mondstadt, the nation of freedom.
Life with him ends up being nothing like you dreamed it would be. Everything about Childe stays the same, but any agency you had before has vanished into thin air. He doesn't let you out of whatever apartment he's got set up for you on his latest mission. Childe is convinced that all of your thoughts should be about him, him, him.
It's harder to escape Childe than it ever was to leave Neuvillette. You should feel ashamed as you manage to make your way back to Fontaine, though you consider going to Mondstadt to truly gain your freedom.
But at least with Neuvillette, you have protection from a Harbinger. With Neuvillette, if you're found by him you're most likely just going to get a lecture and a light punishment.
With Childe, if he finds you, you're certain that you'll never see the light of day again.

One of the really fun things about Buffy the Vampire Slayer as a series is that they can’t have all the men looking like giants next to Sarah Michelle Gellar, who is objectively relatively short for a lead Hollywood actress, so you end up with so many supporting men that are short kings. Like. Oz, the ultimate short king. Hello? Need I say more? And secondly, you end up with Buffy regularly kicking ass in high heels which was a big win for gay women everywhere so I think we all really benefited from this situation.

Déjà vu.
Grian thought to himself if it can even be considered déjà vu if it happens with that frequency and consistency… Once again, they were walking together, one guiding – lead in hand –, while the other follows. The destination? Like every time before this, a desert.
While sitting on the back of a camel, Grian couldn’t help but stare at Scar’s back – to the many scars he knew the man carried under the armour; scars he could not defend Scar from, scars taken in his place, scars he made himself.
“Fragile is the word.” Grian murmured quietly, like a secret. Scar was fragile, breakable – but Scar always came back, stronger and maybe even wiser. Much like their damned bond was fragile, breakable yet here they are again.
Grian laughed to himself when they found the small piece of desert that the Watchers gave them; he shook his head. All that Grian and Scar knew how to build together were sand castles – brittle, frail… Fragile and breakable.
“Sand castles are really easy to rebuild, hum?” Grian said in a whisper and Scar smiled back a Grian – that was their little secret.

overall i think the revival just proved that the show succeeded despite chris carter, not because of him. somehow, of everyone who worked on the show, he had the least idea of what made it work, what made it special, what made us lose our minds and cry and scream and cheer for those two beautiful weirdos who graced our screens every week. i would trust gillian's hairdresser to write a better s10/11 mytharc than chris.
