does adult mav canonically have pre braces TC teeth or did sometime during the early 00s maverick mitchell wear adult braces
some thoughts
1. my knee-jerk reaction was characters are not their actors so who cares let mav’s teeth be whatever you want
2. But engaging w/ this honestly i see a couple possibilities
3. possibility A is that yes mav has fucked crazy bigass teeth (see my post on ice calling him “Peter rabbit” for more on this)
4. possibility B is that part of trying to reinvent himself during their brief divorce era (post pulling rooster’s papers ca. 2002-2005) was getting adult braces and the like 4 times ice saw him during that period he was just so bewildered he didn’t think to comment on it at all
5. (can navy fighter pilots have braces?? i feel like it would immediately obviate any call sign you had and everyone regardless of rank would immediately start calling you “brace face” and that’s what they’d stencil on the side of your f-18 or w/e… Pete “brace face” Mitchell! honor is everything im not sure mav would tolerate that! you lose a LOT of social capital when you have braces as an adult unless you’re actually tom cruise! which mav is not!)
6. Possibility C mav got invisalign circa 2015 when it really started getting popular and had his retainers in during the TGM mission cause why not. that’s funny. you cannot lose a SINGLE day with Invisalign or it sets you back so much. even if you have a suicidal navy mission to drop bombs on a sovereign country ... still gotta wear your Invisalign dumbass

Cant sleep so im thinking about ayhalo
I think its like. one sided. qaypierre WOULD smooch that demon and take him on dates. qbad would not recognize anything as a romantic gesture. aypierre could throw a bouquet of chocolate roses at him and bad would just be like ! thank you :}
like they love each other, absolutely. they TRUST each other, to the point where i’d even say it gets in the way of bad seeing aypierre as anything more than a good friend. that’s his guy. The dude always in his corner. Friend resource label: team mate (coparent) (down to help kidnap people). bad doesnt do classic romantic relationships- all of his relationships are INCREDIBLY queer, but the closest he usually gets to what others read as romance is a classic chewtoy4chewtoy dynamic. He LOVES to fuck with people and he loves to get fucked with and if there’s a nice jawline or pretty muscles included?? huge bonus !!
he’s got something- not kinder, with aypierre? not calmer, either, but stable, maybe. pierre has proven, over and over again, that he’s on bad’s side. Spying on tubbo, encouraging bad’s pranks, the kidnapping- i can’t call it a reliable dynamic, not with how paranoid bad is, even when he trusts, but there is still a feeling of understanding that, wherever pierre’s limits are for when he cant support bad (or genuinely turn against him), it hasnt been reached yet
aypierre, on the other hand, i dont know enough about to be absolutely sure but there are some Vibes. ironically, i think hes feeling like his relationships are unreliable. max was going to have their baby, and then he wasnt, and then he left him, then max fucking died. plus whatever is happening with him and ayrobot, which probably leaves him feeling like he cant rely on Himself. like he had, if not a little crush on bad, at least some Interest in him, before. as well as several islanders. i remember the days of the Bed Threat.
but thats part of it, too? because those flings didnt have that emotional connection, and i always got the sense that he started looking for that with maximus, to Love and Be Loved rather than pure lust. To care about someone, genuinely, and be cared about in return. but he didnt get that with the flings, and We know that max was using him, but i dont know if he did, but maybe he had a feeling about it and maybe he also had a feelinf about maximus’ feelings towards bad and maybe- there’s something about that? A little push of not-spite-not-projection onto bad.
because bad IS that reliability, right now. he’s a fucking gremlin. a bastard. a prankster silly guy. he trusts aypierre and aypierre trusts him and they dont share everything but so often, when it comes down to it, it is them against the world. them in the corner, caught, aypierre shouting about kissing as a cover for their crimes while bad runs giggling away from him.

Gideon the Ninth Reaction - Chapter 16
hell yeah, they're working as a team properly now!
i don't know why but i feel kinda bad for the dead amalgamate monster, i was starting to get a little attached :(
and another key!! one step closer to opening another locked door, the question is which one ... maybe the mysterious door X-22, but could really be any of the six locked doors Harrow mentioned earlier
ok whatever Harrow was doing seems to have worked the other way around and let Gideon in on her Necromancy-Vision, but from her reaction that doesn't seem like it was meant to happen. perhaps thats what the test was trying to find out, see if the candidates could achieve that level?
Harrow finally giving Gideon a compliment is quite satisfying. these last couple chapters have gone quite a way in making me appreciate Harrow as a character more
I feel like they're in a bit of a false sense of security rn, like somethings gonna attack them
Wait
Nope nope nope nope!!! 😢😢
I knew someone was gonna die sooner or later but why did it have to be Magnus and Abigail!?!! i literally gasped and punched my book when i read that last sentence
i am sobbing, Tamsyn Muir this is not okay to do to a person
y'all just really let me sit here and talk about how much i liked Magnus huh. at least they got one last cute anniversary dinner together, RIP

childhood is such a funny fucking concept if you just like take a step back and ignore the rammies for a second. like yeah this is jeff he screams and cries and shits himself and attacks people constantly but you're not allowed to get mad at him because he hasn't been around very long and he's still learning to cope with the fact that he's alive so we can't really blame him. yeah it's gonna be 18 years. yeah we all went through it once and everyone who will ever be born will too. the burden of human sapience is so great that emotional instability is inevitable and mastering it requires grueling practice for nearly two decades. sorry if he calls you a slur on xbox live

okay wait laughingstock concept Incoming: so im imagining some of the neighbors (maybe Julie & Frank) noticing that Barnaby & Howdy are a lil fruity, yk yk. and Julie's like damn, i guess we have to play matchmaker here.
so naturally they wind up getting the whole neighborhood involved. everybody's a wingman here. Poppy's dropping hints when Howdy drops off groceries, Wally is constantly asking Barnaby to go get him things from the bodega, etc etc. Howdy and Barnaby are facing this sudden change in town-wide behavior with slight concern and bemusement
eventually - lets say Julie, Sally, and Wally - get Barnaby into the bodega and then abruptly leave like "don't have too much fun without us you two *wink wink nudge nudge*". once they're gone (read: very obviously hiding outside & watching through the window) Barnaby & Howdy turn to each other like:
Barnaby: you think we should tell them we're already married?
Howdy: let them have their fun - they'll figure it out eventually
