The day Sadie Sink, Walker Scobell, Brady Noon, Ethan Cutkosky, Emma Kenney, Noel Fisher, Dana Heath, Havan Flores, Luca Luhan, Terrence Little Gardenhigh, or Sophia Lillis get cancelled is the day I just end it all and bury myself alive in my backyard

#i don’t want to live to see the day everyone starts hating any of them #everyone i used to love is just getting cancelled and we need to protect all of these people #please i can’t have this happen pls gods don’t let them do stupid shit #sadie sink #walker scobell #brady noon #ethan cutkosky #emma kenney #noel fisher #sophia lillis #havan flores #luca luhan #dana heath #terrence little gardenhigh #if any of you know something i dont pls don’t tell me i won’t be able to handle it #this noah schnapp thing is getting to me man #now i’m worried any of them are gonna go and do something as stupid as him

[carefulfears]

the biggest thing about elegy is that it takes all of that unspoken isolation of this arc, and it slowly lets the audience in. the first thing that mulder says about the apparitions, is that they seem to be an "omen." an impending prophecy. and carefully, throughout the episode, both the audience and scully are waiting to see, not who the killer is, but what is being foretold. when they're going over records, and scully's nose starts bleeding, it's the one thing that they can't ignore. she wasn't even there in the previous episode. she was in the hospital. alone. they don't talk about it. she's "fine." she has "always been the strong one." just like in irresistible, years earlier, she does not want him to know how much she is struggling. but she doesn't have any control. it is dripping out of her. the sound of his voice when he says "oh, scully." and how quickly she responds "it's okay. i'm fine."

it's that kind of childlike grimace in him, the same man who flinches away from dead bodies and stares at the ground before his father. and she's so fast to try to restore order. it's okay. i'm fine. don't worry, i'll clean it up. i'll make it go away. when she disappears into the bathroom and sees an apparition there herself...i think she decides to go to the hospital because she just needs space, honestly. she's scared. he offers to drive her, to go with her, twice. asks, "you sure?" and she says, twice, "i'm fine."

elegy builds to two separate climaxes: the first, when mulder comes to scully's apartment. but before that, we see scully in karen kosseff's office, the same therapist that she had gone to in irresistible, and presumably has kept a relationship with in the years since. she tells karen that she's been diagnosed with inoperable untreatable cancer, and when karen asks, "you've kept working?" she answers, "yes. it's been important to me."

she's taken aback when karen asks why, is surprised at the question, and tells her "agent mulder has been concerned. he's been supportive, through this time."

KOSSEFF: Do you feel that you owe it to him to continue working?

SCULLY: (quickly) No. (pauses) I guess I never realized how much I rely on him before this...his passion...he's been a great source of strength that I've drawn on.

KOSSEFF: What happened last night, Dana?

SCULLY: I saw something. I, I don't know what to trust. If I saw it because of the stress, because the image had been suggested to me or if it was a suggestion of my own fears.

KOSSEFF: Your fear of failing him?

SCULLY: (exhales emotionally) Maybe.

this is such a rare admission from scully. first of all, she's being confronted. this is not normal. it is not normal to work to your death. it's like bill tells her, a couple of episodes later, "what are you doing at work, getting knocked down, beaten up? what are you trying to prove?"

(she hadn't even told bill about her cancer. she'd been sick for months. she thought she was going to die in memento mori, she knows she's going to die sooner than later. and she instructed her mom not to tell her brother. from the moment that mulder said "i refuse to believe that," it really was only going to go one way.)

she's being confronted. why are you working? (for mulder). do you feel you owe him? (no, i need him).

she's really alone. she's sick. like, she's really sick. she spent the last case in the hospital. she's having a hard time keeping up. she's thinning, and bleeding, and struggling. but there she goes, every day, at every hour. monster chasing. telling him she's fine.

(so much conflict comes from the way that mulder's ignorance perfectly enables scully's repression)

when he shows up, late, at her apartment, he comes in a mile-a-minute, about how he needs her "help" on the case, before asking her what her doctor said. (her answer, of course, being, "i'm fine.")

he tells her that everyone who has seen an apparition, was dying. every person who reported a premonition, was near death themselves.

SCULLY: Harold Spuller is dying too?

MULDER: Well, that's what I need your medical opinion on.

SCULLY: Well, what if he isn't?

MULDER: I would be very surprised. What is a death omen if not a vision of our own mortality? And who among us would most likely be able to see the dead? 

this is one of the most hauntingly isolating moments of the series...he has just told her that she is going to die. and he doesn't know, that that's what he said. she is forced to process it, completely by herself. and she doesn't believe in ghosts, or "premonitions," but she knows that he is right. (when is he not?)

("maybe harold is sicker than we thought he was.")

the second moment that this episode builds to, is the final confrontation between mulder and scully. after the murder is solved. after harold dies.

SCULLY: I saw something, Mulder.

MULDER: What?

SCULLY: The fourth victim. I saw her in the bathroom before you came to tell me.

MULDER: Why didn't you tell me?

SCULLY: Because I didn't want to believe it. Because I don't want to believe it.

MULDER: Is that why you came down here, to prove that it wasn't true?

SCULLY: No, I came down here because you asked me to.

MULDER: Why can't you be honest with me?

SCULLY: (defensively) What do you want me to say? That you're right, that, that I believe it even if I don't? I mean, is that what you want?

MULDER: Is that what you think I want to hear?

SCULLY: (softly) No.

they come really...close here? to talking about it? she almost baits him several times this season. she spends so much of this arc thinking...maybe, this will be it. maybe if she fucks off on assignment, gets a tattoo with another man, he'll say it. maybe if she calls him out for never celebrating her birthday, he'll acknowledge why this is the year he did. maybe if they spend a friday night with a bottle of wine, they'll talk. maybe if she tells him, those things you believe are death omens? i saw it. he'll know.

i can't remember which one of you said that all of their arguments are just how to love each other. she doesn't want to believe. but she's there, because he has asked her to be. even in all of their repressed denial, there is no escaping what's happening. it hangs over both of them.

i love the moments in this arc where she just snaps. in this scene when she says, what do you want from me? do you want me to just believe you? and her quiet resignation, when he makes her answer her own question. no. she knows that's not what he wants.

MULDER: (his voice softens) I know what you're afraid of. I'm afraid of the same thing.

SCULLY: The doctor said I was fine.

MULDER: I hope that's the truth.

SCULLY: (whispers) I'm going home.

"i know what you're afraid of. i'm afraid of the same thing."

except, no, he doesn't. and no, they are not.

but she knows what he's afraid of, just as her therapist had known what she's afraid of ("your fear of failing him?") and so she dodges his admittance with reassurance. she's fine.

that last scene, when she goes out and cries in her car, and she sees harold's ghost in the backseat. she is so alone. she's working on her deathbed. they don't talk about it. she's afraid, and she's not fine, and she is going to "fail" him because she cannot keep herself alive for him, and she can't avoid it. it's in the backseat. it's in the bathroom mirror. it's bleeding out of her.

#here trish #txf.txt #elegy #DANA LOOK OUT!!! YOUR ELEGIES ARE EULOGIZING YOU!!!!!!!!!! #i was saying last night how much i love ‘gethsemane’ as an episode title #and i think that may be my favorite one #but i love ‘elegy’ a lot too #‘a lament for the dead’ #this whole episode is sorrow for the dead and dying #how we cannot catch up to them #and our dying girl at the center. seeing the omens. knowing what’s coming. crying alone in her car. #this show was always so so so resonant and impactful when it came to themes of grief and loss #anyway. there is no beyond the sea etc etc #also i noticed last night that scully mentions how long they've been together a lot during this arc #'in the four years i've known you' in tempus fugit #'i would think after four years' in elegy #'everything that we've done over the past four years' in reduxii #she's taking stock

yeah i’m obviously as obsessed with the bestfriendism of msr as anyone but can we just appreciate the actually-platonic work partners for a minute. there’s no cosmic codependency in this office. they just really like each other on purpose

#if the world is against doggett then i am against the world etc etc!!! #he sees that his insane friend is suffering and does everything he can to help ease her pain how can you NOT love him #and she is SO walled off and grieving this season but despite herself she does come to really really trust him #anyway i'm not even close to here in the liveblog but i've watched a lot of tinh/deadalive for giffing so here we are #arwen.text #the x files #john doggett #dana scully

She deserves a rest.

i really do wish we got 2 see a bit more of the raine + luz interactions cuz liek,,, i think they would have gotten along sooo well!! like their parent/daughter relationship would be sooo cool to see! and liek in the post hoot it's implied that Raine's palisman is a shapeshifter like stringbean since Raine hid their palisman in the form of their violin! so maybe they could bond on how their palisman r shapeshifters

#i love them so much #also hunter/raine interactions cuz Dana confirmed after WAD Hunter and Dell fixed up their palisman i can't believe Raine is a parent of 2 #i am livid we didn't get to see more of them #like #when Raine saw Luz for the first time after being rescued by eda they sounded so happy to see her before they said “you look..fluffier?” #im sorry i have the worst brainrot #the owl house #luz noceda #raine whispers #toh s3 #watching and dreaming #the owl house wad #the owl house season 3 #rlly happy dat other ppl pointed it out 2 me dat raine's palisman was their violin before lol

[pandoratheprocrasticreator]

no by all means keep judging cartoon villains solely by if they get redeemed in the end. i know some of us like to talk about other stuff like characterization or entertainment value or nuance as something that makes a good villain. but i think the only thing that actually matters is if the villain ends up on good terms with the protagonist at the end. all the Good TM cartoons with Good TM creators make the villains die a Horrible Death for being Abusers or whatever. and all the Bad TM cartoons with Bad TM creators Forgive Fascists by not making them get publicly executed by the 14 year old protagonist in front of the 8 year old target demographic.

i mean im so glad that more cartoons nowadays are subverting the psyop to support fascists that a few queer artists and queer shows definitely invented in 2017. there are so many popular cartoons doing that. it's almost like there are more properties killing their villains now and in the past than there ever were of properties that didn't do this. and it's almost like whether the villain gets redeemed at the end is more about the context of the story and its themes leading up to a narratively sound decision.

but you know. a few queer shows made by trans ppl were popular and they didn't kill their fascists and even had the gall to make them nuanced while also looking into the harm they did. guess it's trendy to forgive your abusers now because like two cartoons said so. out of like 40 other similarly high profile works that just straight up hit their villains with a bus or smth. by all means. keep heaping praise onto that one show about how they "let their villain just be evil" instead of talking about anything more interesting. that's so subversive, everyone's doing it!

#shut up pandora #check off my 'monthly rant about the treatment of the creators of steven universe and she ra' #this is because of the 'praise' ive been seeing for belos btw #yes i love his panache i love how much he fucks up everything and i love how hes beyond redemption #thats not because he was Born Evil and has always Been Evil??? #ppl who show baby belos going out of his way to make calebs life a living hell and evelyn Rescuing this poor blond boy from his Evil Brothe #i am sending so many bad vibes at you rn #he isnt a good villain bc dana terrace decided to be 'subversive' by not redeeming belos #JUST being subversive while writing the story doesnt mean you make a good story being subversive =/= being good #hes a good villain because while his decisions are dogshit we can understand why he made them on an emotional level #and since gravity falls seems to be the golden standard for modern cartoons i guess #bill cipher also isnt a good villain bc hes evil and they killed him #bill is a good villain bc hes entertaining in the threat he poses #what makes a character a good villain is about stuff they do while theyre being a villain #dont just sum it up with 'duhhh they killed them at the end so its good' thats entirely dependent on the story! #anyway this is specifically about modern western cartoon fandoms #if youre telling me to watch shows that arent modern western cartoons or like. read a book then know that i do that already #this stuff isnt as big of a discourse topic in those circles but im talking about this specific circle rn

[fellhellion]

I do love that a reoccurring pattern with Miguel is that people close to him have massive gaps of knowledge regarding the circumstances that give context to how he behaves agshdjjfkg like.

Gabriel has no idea what threats were leveraged over Miguel’s head to stay in Alchemax boarding school, was in all honestly likely too young to truly understand Conchata essentially abandoning Miguel in the first place. Miguel casually omitted what action prompted Tyler to drug him into complacence in the first place.

Xina has no idea Miguel grew up in an abusive household, that his mother is still abusive to him, and how large of a role that abuse (without even mentioning the way Tyler weaponised it against him) played in Miguel seeking to eke out a conditional acceptance from these systems of power.

like hi for the love of god this is thing on

#I love not being known 💥💥💥💥💥💥 I love omitting information from the ones we love because we’ve always felt deeply unworthy of their care 💥💥💥💥 #not to mention Dana is like. completely (wilfully?????) ignorant as to those tensions herself esp regarding George #openly baiting Miguel #like even if you had no idea this man was abusive and Miguel never told you I FEEL LIKE YOU COULD INTERPRET THE DYSFUNCTION YKNOW 😭 #cause there just isn’t anything to suggest Dana came from a violent home herself and is thus excusing that behaviour out of a learned #trauma response etc #anyways #💥💥💥💥💥💥💥 #tunes talks 2099

The amount of Darius love in that Instagram live is fucking giving me life omg!!!! My beloved!!!

Dana talking at length about how he was always supposed to be a good guy that acts mean but he cares so much about doing the right thing & protecting who he loves like yes yes he's actually a really compassionate person & I've been thinking about that since Hollow Mind. Christian saying Darius is his favorite character, Dana saying he's one of her favorites, the way he's layered and nuanced and how they wanted to explore it more if they got a full season 3 ;___; also confirming he & Eber are like brothers & trust yet annoy each other for fun haha

Then the Raeda!!

Dana saying they're her OTP (which they are the OTP) and Raine is one of her favorites, the coy way they addressed Raeda to begin with as to not give spoilers 👀 like oooh I wonder what could be coming for them (Raeda wedding Raeda wedding Raeda wedding)

The bits about Hunter where they didn't deny specific things!

Sarah-Nicole said he was cloned from Philip's brother and while we're 99% sure that's true it not being denied or shut down there really helps seal it's as canon as possible rn. Hunter & Darius compared to Simba & Mufasa haha rip BUT THEY EVEN MADE A DAD JOKE DADRIUS MAYBE???? Dana even said even tho she wrote the scene it hurt to watch like yeah it did lol. THEN when asked about Huntlow Dana IMMEDIATELY turned away and had to cover her smile hahah. Like oh? They gonna be canon? Is that what all the blushing was building to mayhaps?

King ;____;

He chose his name, he and Eda chose that. His birth name from his dad doesn't matter cuz he's King Clawthorne, he's Eda's son and he chose that and his name ;______;

The debating over Lilith's palisman name lol, that it's some long ass historical reference but it's shortened to something like "Mike Socks"

Coven Heads named finally!!!! Really bummed about cut Darius, Eber, and Hettie time :( good for Mason getting promoted lol, that makes two Coven Heads Belos tossed up there only months before the Day of Unity that he was planning for fucking centuries, like cutting it close there pal

#toh #toh spoilers #dana terrace #dana terrace and toh cast and crew i love you #darius deamonne #legit the darius love made my heart melt it was so great seeing hes such a beloved char in the cast 💖 dadrius feels more & more likely 🤞 #raeda #oh raeda my beloved otp you better get a wedding. huntlow dance at the wedding thats how we see them as canon lol #i do hope we get a willow blush scene based on how they reacted. sorry huntlow haters but its looking really likely to be canon lol #king clawthorne #lilith clawthorne #her palisman name is so fitting & its so derpy looking i love lilith i love mike socks #darius my beloved #tc posts

Kat: *about to trip over herself, with her mr. Krabs sounding feet rushing over to finn like the desperate character she is* MC I can’t believe you’ve done this to finn? How could you?!

ME:

Like it was hard?! None of you bitches were deserving of MC’s love so why would you ever think I’d choose “love” over the bands?! Are you dumb? Y’all were nothing but bullies the entire season and then want to gloss over it about, “how much you’ve changed.” The only thing you need to change is a toothbrush because it’s clearly still covered in too much of your bullshit?

I still wish I could have slapped kat but the money was the most satisfying lmao. Why would I ever be guilty when none of these characters have taken MC’s feelings into account? The money was the goal after the first few episodes and it’s been proven that each LI is garbage.

You don’t like it? Cry about it on your Twitter or whatever podcast you’re invited on…like I know you will kat 😘✌🏽
