i actually still don’t know what i’m doing on here but the poem (excerpt?? screenplay-esque drabble??) is built off of aesops fables and loosely inspired by the wonderful fic “kill your darlings” by @super-nova5045 on ao3, which i’ll link in the comments
Ed and the Aux Closet in Season 2: Bonkers Bananas Screenshot Analysis™
Hello hello everyone! So, as you may know, I've been snuffling the season 2 teaser frontwards backwards sideways diagonally etc etc, ingesting all the yummy theories everyone has been sharing, and subsequently noticing all sorts of different things.
Lately, my biggest interest has stemmed from this post by @amuseoffyre, who pointed out that it's very VERY likely that Ed was playing with his sweet, sad little wedding toppers in the aux closet. And naturally I was like oOOOAGHGGHHG, but then wanted to set out to see if I could find any more clues. And when stepping through the teaser for the umpteenth time...
Girlies (gn), what is that,,,
GIRLIES (GN), WHAT IS THAT????
Now lmao, this might already be common knowledge. Someone might have already pointed it out. And if that's the case, pls forgive, but also, I invite you to come cartwheeling along with my BRAIN GYMNASTICS HERE LMAO-
Because, I promptly flipped my shit, and then vaguely recalled someone else wondering if Ed had replaced the very obvious little mannequin/style doll handle with something more fitting to his current aesthetic. And then promptly flipped my shit even MORE, because yeah, that's a random little black skull handle, and would lead me to believe that he still actively keeps the closet a secret...
BECAUSE HE STILL USES IT.
BUT THEN LMAO, I WAS LIKE...SURELY NOT. SUUUUURELY NOT. I was like I'm over here being ✨delusional✨, and Izzy is likely standing somewhere else in the cabin. So I looked at other episodes to scope out the whole cabin, thinking he might have been standing to the left of the bed nook with those red curtains on his right, effectively putting him on the wrong side for the aux cabinet...
BUT NO LMAO--
VINDICATIONNNNNN
BUT THEN LMAO, I still had an ounce of doubt, because I was like...The little mannequin/doll oddly doesn't seem to be on that shelf in that shot??? But then I was like,,, I very much recall Ed shuffling into the closet when he was having his panic attack, and remember that being on the right side of the bed nook. And so I checked and
RIGHT SIDE OF THE BED NOOK INDEED BAYBEEEEEEE
SO ANYWAY UHHHH YEAH COOL COOL VERY COOL ED DEFINITELY SEEMED TO HAVE KEPT THE HANDLE A SECRET/CHANGED IT TO SOMETHING ELSE,,,
And it seems to be in about the same place--DEFINITELY on the same shelf and on the same side. Soooooo lmao MMMMMMMMMMMMMM :)))
And what kills me even more about all of this, is the notches pointing to him commonly being in that space/on that side of the cabin. Every single day, he's spent time over there. He's occupied that space enough to keep track of all the lost moments. He could be doing that ANYWHERE else in the cabin, and yet he's doing so RIGHT THERE.
And why change the mannequin/subsequently hide the closet away if there was nothing TO hide?
Seeing them together and happy as adults after everything they’ve been through makes me absolutely insane and I KNOW this is so shallow but like they’re both still SO. HOT. and have so much chemistry even all these years later which is just SO RARE normally when shows do revivals with an older cast it’s never quite the same as the original and with Veronica Mars the cast brought the exact same chemistry and energy but the creator absolutely WASTED it writing everyone out of character and forcing the show to be something it’s not😭 but…. at least I can pick and choose clips from season 4 to make edits that create a much preferred narrative to the one they gave us 😹😭
child!luca who comes from the greatly respected kaneshiro family, one filled with generation after generation of loyal knights. luca, who grew up alongside the reader, the eldest child and heir to the crown. luca, who trained tirelessly day in and day out to feel worthy of the title of imperial knight. luca, who watches the reader from afar and blushes when they compliment his form.
luca, who gets knighted at only 15—the youngest to ever do so—and joins the imperial guard. his father praises his skill and celebrates his newfound knighthood and achievement with a party, but halfway through luca slips away from the crowd and ends up on a balcony. he admires the moon and prays that you remember him
knight!luca who watches with concealed worry at your coronation after the sudden death of your parents, who clutches the sword at his side tightly after hearing thinly veiled insults thrown at you from unimpressed nobles
knight!luca who serves his beloved emperor, who becomes the captain of the imperial knights and trains his subordinates to become the best they can be to protect you.
knight!luca who is assigned to guard you as you sleep, who averts his eyes when you begin to undress before him after dismissing the aids
knight!luca who stays oh so impossibly still when you brush a hand across his armored chest, heat radiating from his cheeks as he clenches his fists in an effort not to touch you. you, who is so radiant and beautiful, who is beyond his status as a knight and shouldn't, cannot be sullied by his callused hands and scarred fingers. you, who tucks a stray strand of blonde hair that escaped his ponytail behind his ear and strokes his cheek with clear fondness.
you, who knows your most loyal knight by name, who knows his favorite food and his drink of choice on his rare days off. you, who has watched him just as much as he's watched you, who has prayed for his safe return after a hard fought battle against invading forces. you, who tenderly removes every armor piece, every weapon from his body and drags him to your bed.
knight!luca who falls harder every day, who leaves sweet kisses against your hair and writes unspoken confessions into your skin. who lays beside you every night holding you tightly to his chest and thanking the gods every day for having the honor of loving you.
i usually dont post my art on tumblr, but…fuck it, right? just finished replaying ghosts and keegan has my heart as always ✨ my beloved. done with ballpoint pen and a dream of making a good portrait again, i used to do them all the time but its been a while so i’m a bit rusty!
hope the keegan lovers enjoy, cause i wanna start making more original cod art but i need some motivation eheh.
I'm depraved and just added a bit to my pinned post about reading RotE in published order because the thought of people just picking and choosing trilogies at random keeps me up at night
rnz:我说的话你可以不信,但是想碰我的人不行。
you can disbelieve my words, but you can't touch the person who's mine.
obviously 我的人 could theoretically be ambiguous, oh he's ruan nanzhu's because he's part of obsidian but like, come on. this is gay. this is gay people.
