#wolf (re)watch

[chirpsythismorning]

S5 opener REAL

#byler #will byers #stranger things #every season besides s4-5 opens with non main characters #for el we got a flashback of the lab followed by her perspective in the scene directly after #and I think for Will we will see something similar #with us getting the flashback of him in castle byers in the UD #followed by him in the present in the scene after #but what exactly would warrant that memory being brought up in association with Will in the present? #mayhaps his connection to the mindflayer and the UD run deeper than we realize… #it’s likely not something he could just rid himself of in s2 and now he’s all good #he literally still feels a connection to everything he is feeling #that means he is still technically at risk of being the spy in some capacity #the massacre at Hawkins lab also was a guiding force for El discovering the ‘truth’ in s4 #so it’s likely for Will this instance will operate in a way that re-contextualizes the events in the past up to now #like that time Will suggested they go to the hospital in s3 only for the flayed to be waiting for them #or how flayed Billy knew they were at the cabin… #all while Will was looking cryptic as hell in that scene watching over el #or the fact that he picked Billy in the first place the season after he focused on Will… #you know.. williams #I think the easiest way to introduce the castle Byers flashback is a dream honestly #specifically a dream within a dream #seeing that recent leak and Will looking like either he has a black or hasn’t slept in days #is giving very much ‘I am afraid to sleep bc I’m scared of what will happen’ #I think dude is not exactly possessed in the sense that we already saw in s2 with like the particicles #but he’s still vulnerable #the door is still ajar… #no but fr this idea of opening a door in your mind was so blatant in st2 AND s3b of teen wolf #I think a big part of it will be guilting Will over the fact that Will has helped him before without Will telling the others #hence his weird vibe in s3… like he’s already successfully fucked with Will post s2 potentially with us being none the wiser aka here we go

I just think that, on the off chance we don’t get a sab s3 or soc spin off, the actors should do an audio recording of the books. Like Jessie Mei Li reading the sab trilogy as Alina while the other actors read the lines of their respective characters, the crows reading their own respective chapters in the soc duology (again with the actors reading their own lines). Same thing with King of Scars!! It would obviously never happen bc the actors are probably super busy all the time but yk, I just think it’s fun to imagine

#there’s also the fact that being an actor is not the same as being a voice actor #but it’s just a fun thought I had idk #tbh I’d watch a low budget 10 minute condensed version of the actors re-enacting the series in a garage #but I do genuinely think we’ll get the renewal and spin-off #keeps your hopes up guys #and keep trending stuff on twitter!! #grishaverse #shadow and bone #shadow and bone season 2 #six of crows #six of crows spin off #jessie mei li #archie renaux #ben barnes #patrick gibson #freddy carter #amita suman #kit young #jack wolfe #danielle galligan #calahan skogman #constellama talks

Did anyone else grow up on Wolf Song, Bride Of Discord, and Daughter Of Discord? Please. I need to know I’m not alone in this.

#wolf song #bride of discord #daughter of discord #more specifically #I grew up on wolf song and then also somehow found bod and dod #(the names are too long I’m not fully writing those out so have acronyms instead) #I’m gonna go re-watch wolf song now

My Family: How many times have you re-watched Shadow and Bone Season 2?

Me: Yes.

My Family: That's not an answer.

Me: Yes.

#I don't have problem #but like everytime I'm re-watching it my parents or my sister catch me #and they ask what I'm watching #and I said Season 2 of Shadow and Bone #they know about my Ben Barnes collage blanket from Redbubble #shadow and bone #netflix #shadow and bone netflix #grishaverse #ben barnes #patrick gibson #the darkling #nikolai lanstov #jessie mei li #alina starkov #six of crows #freddy carter #amita suman #kit young #jack wolfe #danielle galligan #calahan skogman #kaz brekker #inej ghafa #jesper fahey #wylan van eck #nina zenik #matthias helvar

Wymack does NOT look like the coach from teen wolf!! he looks like the sheriff from stranger things Hoppkins?? no that's the town? Officer Hopps??? JUDY!!? um whatever his name is idk his name is David Wymack to ME.

#i havent watched ST since season 2? 3?came out and i dont think i even finished it idk i remember something about rats??! #also i thought it was so funny when i heard there are multiple ppl that fancast wymack as the coach from teen wolf #took me so off guard i had to re-evaulate what i knew about wymack to figure out how they got to that conclusion #david wymack #aftg

#korwyn. #re : desdemona. #edits by me! #campaign : wild over yonder. #( that's his festie your honor ) #( they are so wolf pack coded ) #( aka they bite each other in the face but then keep watch over one another ) #( sometimes i still think about the heart to heart they had about staying with the group at the carnival. )

[digifag]

they changed retweets to reposts i hope elon musk kills himself

#the wolfs howl #its annoying as an artist cuz usually to repost means 2 post smth elsewhere as not the artist #like i dont want ppl re posting my art in insta or smth but i cant just be like. dont repost my art now. cuz thats just a twitter term now #sorry it just hit me how wild it is watching the erasure of one of the biggest + iconic social media apps is #imagine taking twitter; somewhere known for tweeting; and calling it X and deciding to call it just posting now #fuck off and die lmao

[toastannas]

not 2 be basic but i think my fursona would be a wolf. if i had one

#i speak #<- (re)watched beastars recently #cat is a very close second. again. basic i know but smth smth that one post about the person whose younger selves #all agreed that their fursona is a wolf. thats me #anyway tbh the thing stopping me from having one is more w personal issues rather than any aversion to furries. which i dont have ofc

[iamfitzwilliamdarcy]

Sam gives me a lot of Allison argent vibes but she has a better arc tbh

#Cobra Kai lb #I want to talk more about this but I would have to re watch teen wolf #(Oh no a tragedy)

[kitkatwinchester]

SCOTT YOU F*CKING BEAUTIFUL GENIUS!!!

I knew. I knew there was no way Scott would just do it. There had to be more. There had to be a backup plan.

And THERE IT FREAKING WAS!!!

YES SCOTT!!! I AM SO FREAKING PROUD OF YOU!!! H*LL YEAH!!!!

And the fact that NO ONE KNEW!!! Not Derek, not Stiles, not Isaac--NOBODY.

You freaking NAILED THAT BUDDY!!!

THAT'S how you pull one over on somebody like Gerard.

LET'S F*CKING GOOOOO!!!

Just for that, as much as I love you, Stiles (and as much as I'm hoping you'll talk to Scott about all of this so that you realize that he does need you you big beautiful hilarious smart idiot you), I HAVE to give Scott a gif here.

I just have to, man.

(I haven't gotten to this scene yet, but it fits lol.)

#teen wolf #teen wolf season 2 #teen wolf 2x12 #scott mccall #YOU F*CKING GENIUS YOU!!! #OMG THAT WAS THE BEST!!! #I'VE RE-WATCHED THAT SCENE THREE TIMES ALREADY! #and i haven't even let myself actually finish the actual episode lol #HE GOT HIM!!! #LET'S F*CKING GO!!! #SCOTT F*CKING MCCALL FOR THE WIN!!! <3 <3 <3

On Banshees, Death, Love, & Foreshadowing

A few Thinky Thoughts about 3x23 (Insatiable) and 3x24 (The Divine Move)... but surprisingly not Dergent-related this time (Stydia- and Scallison-related instead). =)

I foster a deep, abiding love for narrative parallels, and that's probably one of the many reasons Teen Wolf continues to appeal to me, despite its many flaws: this show has narrative parallels in abundance, and the more you watch, the more connections you make. If you're me, every single re-watch looks like you shouting "Oooh! OOOHHHH!" at the TV screen while gesticulating wildly, sending your startled cat flying off your lap for the fifth time just this episode.

(I mean... I do that with lots of shows, actually, but y'know... hyperfixation and all that. Ahem. Anyway.)

There's something really painfully beautiful about the way Allison tells Scott it's perfect that she's dying "in the arms of [her] first love" in 3x23 - that he is "the first person [she] ever loved... the person [she] will always love" - and then dies in his arms while he cries over her body... followed by the camera changing to show us Lydia screaming Allison's name and then crying, slumped over the fading, unconscious body of Stiles... Stiles, who, for all they - and we - know at this point, is going to die, too. Lydia - Stiles' first love, the person he will always love - is shown weeping over Stiles' body in a way that parallels Scott weeping over Allison's body.

Damn.

(One could also argue that, in the same way Allison was Scott’s first true love, Stiles eventually becomes Lydia's first true love. Did Lydia love Jackson? Absolutely... but, as she tells Allison, not "like that". What she eventually comes to feel for Stiles by S6 is the first romantic love she experiences that is like the love Allison describes feeling for Scott in 2x06: "Remember what it feels like? All of those times in school when you see him standing down the hall, and you cannot breathe until you're with him? Or those times in class when you... you can't stop looking at the clock because you know that he's standing right out there waiting for you? Don't you remember what that's like?")

And then there's the parallel of the way Lydia and Stiles spend much of the next episode clinging to each other, and the way Scott’s last scene in 3x24 shows him bringing Malia into his pack and teaching her how to control her shift. Lydia and Stiles, who end up together by the end of the series, bonding... and Scott and Malia, who end up together by the end of the series, bonding.

There's also the parallel of Lydia's previous love interest (Aiden) dying in 3x24, with her reacting by flinging herself into the arms of her future love interest (Stiles)... while Scott’s previous love interest (Allison) dies in 3x23, and we then see him connecting with his future love interest (Malia) in 3x24.

Allison being Lydia's best friend, and Stiles being Scott’s, just makes the Scott/Allison + Lydia/Stiles parallel that much more powerful. The rescue mission to save Lydia and Stiles from the Nogitsune results in Lydia losing her best friend and Scott very nearly losing his; while Lydia wasn't able to save Allison - although she certainly tried (she even left a hidden message on the inside of her car window, knowing that was how Scott and Allison used to communicate, clearly hoping Allison would think to check for it... maybe Lydia even taught her that technique?) - Scott is able to save Stiles (with the help of his pack, plus some... including some who eventually become part of his pack, like Derek and Chris). Plus we get the further parallel of Lydia, who tried so hard to save her best friend in 3b, but ultimately couldn't... and Scott, who tried so hard to save his best friend in S6, but ultimately couldn't.

Could any - or all - of this have been intentional foreshadowing? Foreshadowing of the events of S6? Of Stiles being taken and erased by the Ghostriders? Of Lydia's love - and banshee powers - ultimately being what brings him back? Of Stydia ending up together and Scalia ending up together? Could it even have been intentional foreshadowing of Allison's highly hypothetical - but potential - future return? (J*ff Davis has said that he has always wanted to bring Allison back. In the teaser trailer for Teen Wolf: The Movie, we see Lydia, all bansheed out, screaming Allison's name... and then we see that Allison has indeed returned (in some form/capacity); does Lydia maybe have a hand in bringing her back as well? Does Scott maybe get his first love back? I guess we'll see.)

Anyway. It's unclear how much - if any - of these narrative parallels were intentional (foreshadowing doesn't have to be intentional on the writer's part in order to qualify as foreshadowing), but, intentional or not, these connections certainly are interesting to think about... especially when your brain thinks like Stiles' and a) delights in picking apart all the little threads that weave a narrative together, and b) likes solving cases problems and eventually arriving at some sort of closure/conclusion.

ok actually the re4make might be the first remake game that I'll buy*

*eventually, on sale

#watching john wolfe's playthrough of it and he's right abt adding luis to certain parts makes it way more fun #like as much as i like watching other play the new gen games (7/8) i know id find playing them a fucking drag #and that carried over into the remake games too like i enjoy watching them but i didn't really feel enthusiastic abt playing them #esp bc for me RE games are about staying up late and playing them with your friends so you both yell at the same jump scare #but re4make. i am looking. i see you.

[djtommotomlinson]

I miss 4 days ago when I had finished my Teen Wolf rewatch and the only thing I had to worry about blocking out in my head was 6B and parts of 6A because honestly I don’t know if I’ve got the willpower for THIS
