my favorite line from Signs is “Excluding the possibility that a female Scandinavian Olympian was running around outside our house
last night, what else might be a possibility?”
likes to receive: quality time/parallel play -> enid is a high-functioning individual, with a job that requires to be 'on' at almost all hours of the day-- so she appreciates having someone she can lower her guard with-- counts very simple things as quality time: grocery shopping, doing her own work w joaquin in the same space
likes to give: gift giving -> enid going out of her way to give/do something for someone w/o wanting anything in return is a big deal. a gift from her means that you are in her inner circle
joaquin's love language:
likes to receive: physical touch/please crush my soul back into my body -> very physical, craves touch and isn't afraid to ask for it. loves curling up w enid; these two fight over who gets to be the big spoon a lot, so one of two things happen:
they either reach a compromise and end up koala-ing each other or they get too frustrated and end up back to back 😭
joaquin esp likes it when enid plays w his hair- will surely fall asleep bc it's just so soothing; for enid- she likes having her legs draped over his (it's like having her own personal body pillow)
joaquin likes to give: words of affirmation and quality time -> joaquin's reputation of being a flirt precedes him; not afraid to tell enid exactly what's on his mind. he doesn't discover his liking to quality time till he starts dating enid (maybe it's just her lmaoo)
sharing clothes:
these two swap shit like there's no tomorrow
enid likes to steal borrow joaquin's blazers and incorporate them with her own work clothes:
while enid's work attire is usually form fitting, almost all her casual outfits are oversized. as a 0-100 person, she's either giving you 0 or 100. 0 to her are oversized jackets, sweaters, etc. which joaquin loves to take from her closet as well (couldn't find a picture that accurately portrayed the vibes, but you get it)
pda:
enid knows the power of information (bc she uses it to gain the upper hand on opposing counsel all. the. time.) so by nature she's a private person
tho knowing how much joaquin loves pda, will indulge in it a little bit esp if she wants something from him
and bc she rarely does so, this is how joaquin reacts if she ever kisses him in a public setting: 😳🤯😏 (in that order lol)
if they're at work -> that prospect is even rarer. at most, they will do the thing if they're walking by each other in the hallway:
These three are the main stars in but a small portion of our greater Vampire the Masquerade-based corner of the World of Darkness!
Noa and Joaquin are both victims of the family-based clan, the Giovanni, but both decided to take their approaches to the matter in very different directions. How will their story end? Probably tragically! Nyth is from outside the family, but thanks to the relationship he and Noa establish, he quickly gets roped into the drama just as fast!
Let me get this straight, in your ideal version of TFATWS:
The opening would be about Steve not staying in the past so that he and Bucky can “get back together,” even though they were absolutely never together in the first place, thus making them the focus.
You would then have Steve and Sam (two people who are best friends btw) get into it over the shield, because even in your fantasies for a “better” show, Steve would be a crappy friend to Sam.
Then you have Sam still needing money and going through the racist loan stuff. Mind you, this is your fantasy version of the show, right? So you could have Sam be financially fine (like Scott, Clint, Bucky, and, well, every other supe post Endgame), but, no, he still has to have that extra bit of bad luck.
Then Joaquin is what? Randomly and vaguely homophobic for some reason????
And ep 1 ends with Steve… apologizing but then telling Sam about the government trying to take the shield, which implies he wants/expects Sam to do something about it?
Oh IKYFL 😭😭
Stickies remain unhinged I see.
I mean, okay, on the one hand, who am I to judge anyone’s headcanons?
The artbook finally came in the mail and it looks so glorious!!! I’ll have better shots later, I’m going out to eat with a friend, but I took these on my phone. Just a quick snapshot of some of the gems in here
The front and back
My boy Joaquin!!! I’ll definitely have to transcribe the words later
There are some pages of the Wilson family home, the boat, and the docks, but seeing these made me tear up
This is a zoomed in angle of this scene but yeah
I made a gif set of this scene but to see this in format is just!! Them!!! The Wilson Boys!
This is the last page of the book. All my feels can’t even encapsulate my reaction flipping to the end to see this
When I’m not out and about I’ll do a proper post. Until then I hope you enjoyed these sneak peaks like I did!
