#two sides of the same coin shit

[lingeringscars]

there is something very, very specific about the way shauna & nat understand each other. they've both done things that led to tragedy and because of that....things need to be worth it. shauna slept with jeff and jackie died over it (among other things). javi died in nat's place. shauna marries jeff because jackie dying needs to mean something so she'll mold herself into what jackie would have been. she doesn't get to move on. she stays right there where jackie is. nat and travis make a pact because javi dying has to be worth it. they keep falling back to each other because no one gets it like they do. travis asked for javi's help to save nat. javi screamed for nat's help to save him. nat let him die. that has to mean something. jackie dies and that has to be worth something.

they live while the people around them don't. they do the tasks no one wants, no one is grateful for, and they take the responsibility and the blame. they shoulder that shame. they get it.

do you still know how to do this?

she stared you in the eye and was going to pull the knife.

#cj don't come for me #saying this while watching 1x06 aka the ep where shaunatai became everything to each other. where they understand each other #in a way no one else can #but god shaunanat too #the way they're so linked in os many ways #the jealousy in the teen timeline but also the implicit understanding of bearing the weight no one else wants #nat who treks through the woods every day and takes the blame when nothing comes from it #shauna who does the cutting and no one bats an eye #adult shaunanat in 1x06 prove my theory that they hooked up after rescue probably but couldn't escape the jeff and travis of it all #bc of jackie and javi #in this essay i---- #two sides of the same coin shit #muse: nat scatorccio #muse: shauna shipman #dyn: shauna x natalie

Yeah yeah Paul was the only one capable to handle John and keep him in check and deal with his behavior and antics but like have you ever thought how John had to put up with Paul, and his Moods and demands and expectations, too

#i love the humanizing of Paul as a kinda bitchy spoiled primadonna because it's true!!! he could be kind of difficult too #and as much as Paul had to put up with John's shit you know John had to put up with Paul's shit too!! #and i love that for them #mclennon #two sides of the same coin #husband and wife

big godzilla fan but i will never in my life interact with the fandom based on what i've seen on here

#firstly i hate all godzilla ships even mothra/godzilla #just because she's queen of the monsters and he's king of the monsters doesn't mean shit #second i hate those comics that portray the characters as silly and stuff #i especially hate how minus one is always portrayed as a baby because he isn't massive in his first appearance #or giving godzilla earth glasses or making him the 'group' grandpa #or just anything that gives them dialog really #i generally just hate blorbofication #third i absolutely hate king kong and i feel like legendary has really been pushing godzilla and kong being two sides of the same coin #and like generally the only actually good legendary godzilla movie is king of the monsters 2019 #2014 is boring because it's carried by an unlikable and boring cast #godzilla vs kong was just pretty alright #and godzilla x kong was a scaling nightmare with forgettable monsters thrown in as well #and they both fought sea serpents #and godzilla's was still more interesting!! #i have my gripes but i'll save them for when i review them #what am i taking about again

What if Merlin did broke up the prophecy but not the way he thinks he did?

Like, when magic users do a spell they uses "old English" (aka meaning that to arthur and merlin they most likely use a language older than that). Well, what if merthur come back again, again and again to "reset" the language it's in 👀 Magic itself and Humanity meeting every now and then in an eternal dance until the end of time to link humanity and magic once more. Magic born of humanity and Humanity born of magic. As if humanity and magic are two melody out of tune that need to be tune once more. To bring magic back on the land and unite it to albion.

(Since I love that headcanon) What if Merlin put a protective spell on Arthur so he won't wake up to be a pawn again and did not die in case the spell fell. 👀 Like Merlin unknowingly breaking their eternal dance to protect Arthur. His love and loyalty putting a end to all when it was the same thing that started it all?

Atlas is Frank's antithesis in a way . if you think abt it ,,

but also they're also. incredibly similar sometimes

#maybe im. looking to deep into it really #i think. abt them loads tho #despite them. canonically being the same person they're so different in my brain #do you. think Frank enjoyed being Atlas #putting the whole con shit aside. did he like it? was it freeing to him? #or did he prefer the lavish life he lived as Fontaine? #was it stressful? did he live in fear most days? idunno #both. Frank and Atlas are so complex to me. baffling in a way. two sides of the same coin maybe? #bioshock #jack rambles ‼️ #i like. viewing them as separate ppl #if that. wasnt obvious LMAAOO #i think. they both deserve so much but also so little #if. Atlas was real. do you think they would've been friends? #before the whole like. civil war shit. that is #idk if. ppl actually read my tags. ty if uu do i hope. uu enjoy my ramblings here #love Frank n Atlas a lot.. heart emoji

[chuckyray]

something so insane about spaulding being raised by a fundamentalist preacher, isolated from society his whole childhood and forced to live a super repressive life of god meeting otis, the most blasphemous man to ever exist, the man who believes he was put on this earth to kill in satan's name.....and they latch onto each other instantly. i think im gonna be sick

#theyre two sides of the same coin. theyre soulmates #this shit aint ever getting put in any tags. don't want random fucks getting all weird about it. this is about me and my boy.

an old friend and i met up in person and wound up talking about good omens (ofc). they listed a few reasons why they are just like crowley, and i listed a few reasons why i am just like aziraphale, and then i noticed...

they were wearing all black. black shirt, black pants, black docs, black hair. the only exception was their grey socks, which had a giant, green letter C on them.

i was wearing a beige corduroy sweater over a white turtleneck, jeans, beige socks, white shoes, blonde hair.

we laughed so hard when we realized we even dress like them on accident

#that's why were friends #two sides of the same coin type shit #we were so aziraphale and crowley coded #i love them #they're so crowley #but they wish they could be aziraphale #i'm so aziraphale #but i wish i could be crowley #good omens #aziraphale #crowley #crowley kin #crowley kinnie #aziraphale kin #aziraphale kinnie

Am I only guy who actually does use Tumblr in public and doesn't keep their account a secret

I have limits but I don't save it for just when I'm at home, even if it's on my laptop lol. I don't really hide the fact that I use it either, I don't be telling everyone my urls but idm telling people that I have an account long as they're not like super judgmental normies or something. Ig my logic is if they get that worked up about what's on my screen then that's their problem. Especially if it's on my phone.. like why put so much effort into gawking at this tiny ass screen 🤨 yes Tumblr is filled with questionable weirdos and stuff considered cringe by most people but none of it matters if you just look away lol

Ik a lot of posts about this are jokes but it just occurred to me recently that other people might've been being serious

#ken's shit #Also as someone who used to use Reddit consistently... #The similarities between jokes like “I wouldn't get caught dead using this platform” on both sites are so funny #Tumblr and Reddit feel like two sides of the same coin to me

Making a silly post

Then people start adding their serious takes

#I should probably start tagging my tone huh #cause my posts are probably like 50/50 #the serious takes are usually good but I'm over here like do I try to clarify my intent or just let everyone else talk it out #I'm often also Zimmerman like I make the shit post but I have an actual take in my mind that I just haven't put out there #but I choose the clown option #Two sides of the same coin basically #over here virtuoso the swarm posting for my voy people who get the refs I love you

Manifesting the most heartbreaking Merlin Christmas special to drop this year on Christmas Eve with no warning no promotion just chaos and sadness and vibes

#merlin #bbc merlin #arthur pendragon #merthur #could you imagine? #it’d be hilarious #we’d get it opening with like kilgarah (deragatory) #saying some shit about two sides of the same coin and no man can know his destiny #blah blah blah #and then it’d cut to Arthur in some murky water darkness asleep #and then he’d open his eyes #and the screen would turn golden liek sunlight #and it’s slowly fade into a pair of eyes #and suddenly Merlin would be waking up from sleep #his eyes burning gold #honestly just let me write it #I’d be fantastic at it

The relationship I have with my babygirl is very simple. I would kick him down a flight of stairs in a heartbeat. However, I would also drop everything just to kiss his little forehead. I'd take him out to the yard and beat him with a stick like a pinata. I'd make sure he knew he's loved and that he's safe. It's simple 😌

#cambles #shitpost #dont mind me #yes this is about graves #i need to make more lore posts oops #the love of my life and my worst enemy #no one can annoy me like you can #i am you and you are me kinda shit #two sides of the same coin. like looking into a mirror like

PART 2 OF MY SECONDARY SCHOOL POSTS!! since i recently rbed something about them thinking about doing school-centric pips and what it means for both my own lore and how i might interpret more of these into canon... +_+

storm/myth

the two sides of a violent coin; the yearning to create, to consume as much as possible, before destroying it with your own hands. it feels like the wild beat of rain against your face, of wet ink smearing across your fingertips, a gold-tipped nib piercing through paper. it looks like the eye of the storm in the worst typhoon you’ve ever seen—but your mind is as clear as day.

life/death

it’s the idea that you are part of the cycle—when something is born, it ultimately dies, and that’s it. but you can bring life to it once more, and you do. it looks like gold pouring into the cracks of a shattered pot like kintsugi, feels like the first breath you take after being brought back from death in the heat of battle. 

balance/life

it feels like the flora already knows of your own destiny before you do—twisting vines that mangle and warp themselves across ancient ruins; that there is a cycle that even you cannot escape from. it’s the toll of a grandfather clock, the first leaf of a baby sprout, and it’s the indescribable feeling in your chest that feels a connection to the old, oaken trees. 

myth/ice

it feels like a brain freeze—unable to move until it's over, clawing at your head as information files itself neatly into stacks against your skull, or spills into your mind like papers thrown hastily off a desk. visions come blinding and bright, and laid before you is a path of snow, footsteps already leading to your destination.

fire/storm

it feels like the low, dark rumble of an incoming thunderstorm; as lightning crashes upon tumultuous ocean waves. the thick stench of ozone descends upon them; passion that burns away to anger, bubbling hot and low in their stomach until they explode violently and messy like a volcano, leaving ruin in their wake.

#wizard101 #w101 #i reblogged the first post too.... but im literally so happy we got more stuff like this #well i say happy but . what i mean is im so happy that i made smth that can fit into lore #HAHAHA i win again <- delusional #these were kinda hard to make bc i havent done stuff like this since... april . ish #life and death + storm and myth are so interesting to me #bc i think theres canon evidence that says myth focuses more on creation and storm focuses on destruction #so like . theyre two sides of a coin #but life/death wizards would probably get along better than storm/myth wizards HAHA #ima just post this shit now and reblog it throughout the day tomorrow GAH #also i chose these based off a wheel and it kept giving me ones i already did or the same school #so i was like wtf

"pick me girl" "a girl's girl" what about unhinged girl. what about girl who is covered in blood and screaming and making things explode with her mind. what about her.

#emma shut up #i hate tiktok's reinvention of gender essentialism #also you do realize that by never shutting up about pickmes and shit you are absolutely falling into the not like other girls trap right. #its the janice ian regina george paradox. both were equally villains. two sides of the same coin. one just wore more pink.

hey, people who claim kyle is just as bad or somehow worse than cartman? its a joke right? you're just being silly? you wouldn't genuinely have such a bad take right..?

#somebody might not like this post and come at me for it but this is insane #kyle has had his share of fuckups #but the difference between him and cartman is that kyle almost never has pure malicious intent when he does bad things #like when he got nukes dropped on canada. he never meant for that to happen. he was horrified when he saw it happen. #meanwhile if that was carman? he would watch it happen with a smile on his face because that's the type of stuff he does #'oh but he laughed about cartman getting hiv so he deserved to get infected with hiv' what are you TALKING ABOUT are you okay like genuinel #if i had someone who was bigoted towards me every second of the day id probably laugh at their misfortune too #i love cartman too but not to the point where im gonna defend his actions and act like kyle deserves everything he does to him jesus #they can be two sides of the same coin sometimes #but again. #whenever kyle does something wrong his intentions are almost always in the right place. cartmans intentions almost never are. #if you genuinely believe this shit idk what to tell you man. you're a lost cause #kyle broflovski #eric cartman
