I cant stop thinking about the roomies and session 7 and the potentials of session 8
like etho causing so many people to fail their task and miss out on hearts they desperately need in some cases. etho being threatened by gem right before end of session was called. there is at least one name tagged warden on the surface (idk if the second one was named tagged or not) that I dont think got killed. bdubs is so hurt and angry at etho NOT promising he would fail a task for bdubs but doing it for cleo and grian.
like I cant wait to see what happens in session 8 but also. i need the roomies to pull through. they have made it through a zombie apocalypse stronger than anyone else it seems. surely they can pull through whatever happens next.

at the asian american studies sponsored movie screening i run out of my seat to press a button for the presenter and you look away, not in shame, but in anger
go make your own movie.
One where you’re the star
and everything’s my fault
the way you want it to be. I know, it’s easy
to let someone else hold this grief
and sit in the bathtub,
all dressed up to go to the party.
Maybe in this movie it’s your party
and I the party crasher,
holding cymbals and a baseball bat, et cetera.
But we don’t stop getting older when we’re angry
and you’re only twenty,
can’t listen to lullabies at night,
can’t sleep without a blanket
over your head like you’re scared
of your own shadow. God, go
write your own movie.
You could do it,
you’re still
pretty. Angry? Me too.
The bathtub’s overflowing,
the bathroom’s flooding
with whatever you couldn’t say
to the poet with their palms glued shut
in a cheap simulacrum of prayer.
Didn’t you say you were tired? Angry? Me too.
Upset? Unhappy? Me too. Hungry? Lonely? Me too. Me too.
Standing barefoot in the grass
I remembered the month of bad weather.
How I parted the fog with broken hands each night,
looking for your voice.
Oh, I will not forgive you.
Not like this.
With your fingers splayed
against the brute February sky,
lips cracked open like windows,
waiting, like you always are, for me to say the first word.

I really, really hope that Imogen and Deanna have a nice long talk next episode, because they really seem to be made to provide each other a message of catharsis.
Here is a woman back from the dead, who is unmoored by the fact that she doesn't even know her full grown children, really, who has left the choice whether to tell them that she's alive again up to their father who didn't stick around to raise them - maybe because she worried whether they would even want to know her and and deal her issues? Maybe because she can't conceptualize that she's missed so much of their lives, and it hurts so much that she fears to face them?
Here is a women who thought her mother was dead, only to find out her distant father has kept the fact that she's alive from her; whose mother, when faced with Imogen begging her not to do the thing she's sworn to do for Imogen, ignores Imogen's own choice, perhaps because she still can't understand that Imogen is an adult who she doesn't even actually know, but who would rather have the chance to know her mother over whatever power or peace her mother thinks she's bought with all this blood.
Here is a mother who looked at Imogen and said "it's bad, but I know you're not" and gave her a moment of peace and maternal care; here is a full grown daughter who shows that despite not knowing her mother, she wanted so desperately to have her in her life.
Yeah, I want them to talk about that.

Decided to make an Interactive Fic / CYOA thing for a friend, and holy damn is anything related to Choicescript a genuinely terrifying experience. My heart rate was measurably increased by the third failed run.
But. Here it is.
Probably not you're type of game, but I hope you don't mind me Tagging you @allieebobo . After all, I wouldn't have been introduced to this whole thing without you!

So many rambling thoughts about Laudna and Imogen after that episode. The insistence for Imogen to move on if Laudna dies and telling Imogen she's a DEAD END is STAGGERING like ????????? and then the thing that gets imogen 100% devoted to the stop predathos cause is the chance that the gods will in turn help with delilah riddance
like my favorite thing about their relationship is they're not technically on the same page of what their futures look like. Laudna has made it clear from the beginning that all she wants for Imogen is for her to live and have a life. Then you have Imogen, from the beginning, making it clear that a happy life is one shared with Laudna. all of that was indicated before romance was ever involved.
and then the delilah of it all!!!
Reasons why I love Delilah is part of this threesome because you cannot make up these fucking parallels of love and devotion.
“I’ll help create a god so I will stay together with my love forever.”
“I'm gonna do everything in my power so I can have a chance to stay together with my love forever.”

So, @silv-paru sent Sherlock Holmes for the character opinion bingo. thanks a bunch for this (and for your patience. my god, i’m answering this a week late. typical me behaviour). you’re a darling :D
Did you know, i used to tell these stories to my friends? they delighted in them AND i got a chance to sort of ramble on and on abt him and watson. it was a win-win, really. ah, those were the days! now i haven’t reblogged much of him this month at all. i miss him. I MISS HIM.
Onto the bingo: well. he’s The quintessence of gender™ to me. and i relate to him so so much. fav character of all time fr. i want to carry him in my pocket at all times & study him. like. do i want to BE him OR am i IN LOVE with him, ykwim? pssh who knows? certainly not me. uh-huh ‘a beast unleashed’ -does this refer to me or him? you choose. oh re: canon, i’m ignoring the part where holmes dies (or y’know, is dead for 3 years). that’s too angsty.

not me popping back on here with a post after months of semi-inactivity (uni is being a bitch) just to reiterate how much i love writing the pahkitew island cast.
aside from sammy and amy (obviously), literally everyone else can be shipped with one another and it'd make sense to some degree, like it takes skill to create a group of people so inherently shippable (platonically and/or romantically) and ofc the writers didn't know it they just shoved a bunch of random ppl together and dusted their hands off on it but fr tho 😭
(yeah im planning out my leonave 'stranger things inspired' au, and the gears are turning, and i forgot just how much i love writing for this dumbass group)
(i swear im working on the next chapter of a guide to surviving the apocalypse too)
