I don't know why, but 2024 really is the year of missing the Hale Pack for me :(

I miss Derek having the chance to become a real alpha

I miss Erica and Boyd getting the chance to return to the pack and live

I miss snarky bastard uncle Peter in the corner

I miss getting to explore Isaac living with Derek and finding a home

I miss Pack Mom Stiles

Heck, I miss Jackson getting the chance to find a place where he belongs instead of being written off

#Teen Wolf #Derek Hale #Stiles Stilinski #Sterek #Vernon Boyd #Erica Reyes #Isaac Lahey #Peter Hale #Jackson Whittemore #Hale Pack #ya know. the classic Sterek Hale Pack #I live in the world where Jackson never left and stays in the pack #just as much as I live in the world where Boyd and Erica never died #<3<3<3 #I just love the denial okay <3 #I'm so glad that Teen Wolf is on our watch list #right after we finish Buffy up!!! gonna drag my bestie into Sterek hell #Pack Mom Stiles

Oaughhh. I’ve been thinkin abt my sexuality and all that and finally realized over the years that I’m not straight. And it feels so good to be able to know that about myself.

#I don’t want to be annoying about it. but it makes me so so happy!!!! #I’ve spent years grappling with it #partially due to religious stuff I was in denial about it but deep down I think I knew lol #just. it feels good and right to me. I can say to myself that I know what I am and that it’s okay!!! #I don’t know how to explain the feeling other than #there’s a little something in my soul. and it’s leaping and jumping with so much energy and life. it’s free and is living!! #and it’s a part of me. #it feels good man. I don’t know why it does. but it does #Lynx talks

If Laws of Attraction doesn't want me to sympathize with Tanthai, they should stop making him say things that make me think he's suicidal. And stop having his bodyguard look at him Like That.

The sad way he looked up at Methee when he came in to tend Tanthai's cut lip was a choice.

The way he called himself the worst and talked about feeling nothing at killing a child shows just how messed up he is. He just felt empty? A child is dead, and he doesn't feel anything?! And all Methee could do was warn him that yelling will only draw his father's wrath again. Even in his own room Tanthai has to control himself to avoid his father's anger.

And then he says maybe he should die. After all, he should never have been born, right? And how sad Methee looks to hear that. But not surprised. Because even if he hasn't said it before, I'm sure Methee has witnessed all of his self-destructive behavior.

Methee came into the room telling Tanthai to apply the ointment, not to let him apply the ointment for Tanthai. But to make him stop saying such terrible things, he can only grab Tanthai's face and start tending the wound. I don't even know what the look on Tanthai's face says, but it says a lot.

Then he gets drunk and starts talking about dying again.

Only for Methee to pop up at that particular moment to bring him home.

And he just carts him away when he refuses! He just picked Tanthai up and hauled him away. Tanthai had a whole beverage in his hand that probably poured over Methee, but Methee didn't care.

And they expect me to be normal about this? I'm over here making up scenarios about how Tanthai can be innocent, so he and Methee can get married and run away together. Ah, maybe dad was driving, and made Tanthai come take his place. How could they have managed that without anyone noticing? Heck if I know. But where was Methee? Why wouldn't he be with Tanthai to keep him from driving drunk? Why didn't the senator let Charn talk to Tanthai? Why did Tanthai say there was more to this than Charn knew? Seems dumb if the things he didn't know only make things worse for him. Where's Jinta or the Mystery Globe Fixer to give Tanthai a chance to make things right?

#laws of attraction #laws of attraction the series #thee x tanthai #tanthai x thee #tanthai x methee #tw suicide #tw murder #look #i know it doesn't make sense #but i'll keep living in denial anyway #like why would tanthai be looking for something at tin's home #if he weren't the guilty party? #i have no idea beyond maybe his dad made him! #the senator messed his kid up good #so i will keep pretending that he's the murderer #and keep hoping thee and tanthai can have a happy ending #you want me to believe a cold-blooded child murderer #just gets thrown over the shoulder by his bodyguard? #psh okay #he's babygirl coded to me

one minute youre having the time of your life laughing at silly early 2000s effects like the tiny nasty gollum doctor and david tennant hovering around in an energy cloud and the next youre sobbing your eyes out watching the most harrowing sequence of personal loss ever put to screen

#so much of 10s arc this season has been about the loneliness of being the last time lord #and how he will never have a normal life. his companions will always be lost or leave or grow too old and die #and he finally finds the master. and no matter what now he has someone who can stay with him forever. but he chooses to die instead #he literally says. now i have someone to care for. LITERALLY THE WORST CASE OF I CAN FIX HIM EVER MR DOCTOR 😖💔 #and then jack. literally unkillable. will live (mostly) forever. come with me…… and he says no too. #then martha. he was in denial about losing rose and used her to distract himself but now she is leaving too and he has to face it. ALONE. #and on TOP OF THAT! her saying shes leaving because she loves him. ohhhhhh. fucka you. basard. (rtd) #because he loves people too much and they love him too much and it literally destroys them….. #him as john smith. saying the doctor didnt even think falling in love was an option? LITERALLY FUCK MY WHOLE LIFE!!!! #he literally does everything he does out of such deep love for earth and humanity but he thinks he can never have it in return #AND THE WORLD KEEPS PROVING HIM RIGHT. EVERYTHING IS SO FUCKED. ITS SO OVER #UGH. OKAY. literally 16 year old angst but idgaf its literally so incredibly devastating. #dw

do you ever think about that thing allen said about being locked up in his own room for like days. like that’s kind of. really bad. and he kinda just glosses over it?????

like did that happen a lot?? tf???

anyways i was also thinking like trap reactions are super private ordeals for the members of BAE (see: “i don’t wanna see any trap reactions!” -anne in desire; this is completely different from TCW where yohei goes to sit with shiki during his trap reactions btw) and before pride, they probably kept a safe amount of emotional distance from each other. so i can easily imagine anne and hajun both shutting themselves away in their rooms before their trap reactions, whereas, for allen, being locked away in his room was part of his trauma. even if it wasn’t the most traumatic part of that memory for him, it’s still a replication of that scenario to do that during his reactions.

like there’s smth to be said about recreating a traumatic experience in the present day so that you can change the course of events and reclaim power for yourself within a safe environment, but i’m not a psychologist and don’t know much about it, and also i don’t think allen would have the wherewithal to even try and think about doing smth like that during his trap reaction.

ALL THIS TO SAY headcanon that allen always makes sure that he’s never confined anywhere during his trap reactions 👍

#paradox live #i’m just thinking about him #he turned out so okay and so good and i’m so surprised #the closest comparisons i have for him rn are like toya and mafuyu from prsk. just that denial of self from your parents #the ppl who are supposed to love you no matter what and having that withheld if you don’t go along with their plans for you. UGH. #pl

okay jasper brainrot again

#i need to replay soon but i can't stop thinking abt how felix and mason are like. the first people that jasper ever feels truly #comfortable around. i think it probably comes first and easier with felix given his personality and jasper just feels really drawn towards #it. knowing there's something 'off' abt all of them from the beginning but hardly ever feeling human themselves so taking it in stride and #enjoying it above all bc it makes them feel more at ease #and the situationship with mason. they care soooo deeply about him but don't rly fall in love with him until a little later on than the #books describe. they see him as a friend first and just find his personality (beyond the prickliness) so refreshing and comforting bc he rl #doesn't care what the others think and just kinda deals with everything as it comes and doesn't bother trying to live in denial #just him being like “yeah okay. i love you.” and it not being a super big conflicting ordeal is really touching to them despite their own #inner conflict #idk!!! just ub being their found family (despite probably never truly repairing their relationship with rebecca) makes me so :') #i wrote wayyy more than i intended jfkdslfj i forgot how much they mean to me 😭

[mrcspectr]

please PLEASE go feral about The Scene w/dr harrow honestly i adore reading your metas and thoughts about the moon knight boys i don't care if it's 50k words i would LOVE to read what you have to say ^^

ALRIGHT YOU ASKED BESTIE.

This is quite possibly one of my favorite scenes of the entire show. It's not just the fact that they were cofronting so easily. It's not just the fact that this was essentially the biggest mindfuck right into Harrow's psyche, the way they turned a direct attack on their identity and mental stability, sharpened it, and threw it right back at him in retaliation. That it's implied that this is their final interaction with him before they hide this broken man and his imprisoned god from the world in a psychiatric hospital, just like Harrow did to them.

What really gets me is how Marc and Steven are on equal footing as the dominate parties in the entire interaction. It's usually Marc that's more forceful and tries to control the situation right? Lemme explain.

This is not the face of Steven Grant afraid. We've seen Steven scared, the way his eyes can take over his whole face and just shine with it. This is Steven feigning discomfort, faking concern at Harrow's words. His eyes are darker here, have more focus and purpose to them. He's pretending. Steven has to make him believe that what he's doing is working because that's what Harrow assumes about him, that he's the fearful one, the one that's easier to manipulate.

He plays it so damn well and then he gets to be the one to drop the façade. But do you believe that Khonshu and Ammit are real?

Do I? No.

And then Marc slips in, and the transition is like a whisper, there's no struggle in the way it happens anymore. They've planned this out amongst themselves, pinpointed the exact moment to drop the act and twist the knife so that it has the desired effect, makes Harrow start to question in the same way he wants them to question even now, even when he's losing.

And what if we disagree Doc? What if we believe somethin' different?

The boys are hovering over him, looking down at him, and that's the moment we see Harrow experience that first pang of fear because of them.

Then our work here continues. And Harrow tries to walk away, tries pulling back and taking control, but look at Steven. The way he's watching for something, anything that gives him away. Because Marc's the one that mentions the blood, but Steven sees it first.

It's the way they have so very clearly hatched this plot together, and worked together to just.. Essentially "playing with your food before you eat it," so to speak. And then Steven, oh Steven gets to be the one to drive the point home, and it's so satisfying to see. It's the world's biggest gotcha moment.

Yeah, I don't think you know as much as you think you do.

This is Steven playing an equal part in not just saving the world, but in their own story. It's his subtle sort of revenge against Harrow for everything he's done, and everything he's tried to make Steven believe about himself, about Marc.

This is how the boys finally win.

While it is tempting to accept your diagnosis Doc, we'd rather go save the world.

And they love it. They love having the final say, that last word, they find their own sort of amusement in it because they did it together. We don't have to listen to you because we bested you. I remember watching this for the first time and thinking oh wow, they're unstoppable now because if they can do this, if they can grow into this teamwork and continue to use it for good, who even needs the suit anymore.

#it lives in the forefront of my mind all the time #it is a MASTERPIECE like it's the culmination of everything marc and steven have worked toward the entire show #YA'LL ARE GONNA MAKE ME ACT UP #there's also sort of a parallel to the boys looking down at him here to marc looking down at him in the tomb #with a crescent dart in his hand #but it's a vastly different outcome #'you have a choice' and this was how they chose #and with this choice they both had equal input on how it would go #and there's also a lot to be said about this being a moment of emotional/mental abuse #and they finally found the strength in each other to stand up to it #and and and it's what would've paired so well with the goddamn fucking CONFRONTATION SCENE OKAY #BECAUSE CONFRONTING WENDY BRINGS US FULL CIRCLE IN THAT IDEA OF THE DENIAL OF ABUSE #god damn okay i'm sorry this was so so long but i guess you asked so #anonymous #asks #mcu #moon knight #marc spector #steven grant #mk meta
