so, Our Flag Means Death's second season has been paralleling the first: Stede and Ed getting together on the 3rd episode of both seasons (and bringing each other to life), and the romantic "you wear fine things well" moment under the moonlight on the 5th episode of both seasons as well - so I was wondering what can be predicted to be happening next... aaaand, the 6th episode was when the homoerotic stabbing scene happened and also when Ed confessed to Stede about killing his own father.

sooooo.... are we getting some more emotional bonding between them and then... some "stabbing", iykwim??? is that cat bell going to jangle??

I mean, there's a lot of touching in their near future:

#also I'm expecting the Nosy(less) Minor Prince to reappear to take revenge on Stede for leaving him behind #and also the Pirate Queen for the same reasons #besides that I have zero clues about what's going to happen #but I am SO EXCITED #ofmd #ofmd s2 #ofmd speculation #ofmd spoilers

Alright,

so there's been an Orange Side™ teased for a long time now in Sanders Sides, right? And the common theory is that Orange will be some form of Rage or Wrath, and will either take over or split from Logan, right? Well, I want to voice my opinion on this, because I believe it's extremely accurate, and could also provide an amazing character to the mix to oppose all of the sides (yes, INCLUDING LOGAN.)

So, first point:

This point is very minor, but Logan was the first side to have his name revealed. If Orange is the last side to be revealed, that would mean he'll also be the last one to have his name revealed, which is an interesting parallel.

Second point:

Logan rarely shows any emotions. Yes, he gets excited about Crofter's, he has some small amount of pride whenever he's right, and earlier in the series he feels small amounts of remorse whenever he does something that hurts one of the other sides. But, most of the time, Logan doesn't show any emotions (and in "Alone on VALENTINE'S DAY!" he even says "Call me when you have something a little less feelingsy"). He shows nothing, except for one emotion (which is fairly obvious given the intro to this post, but I'll still save it for later).

Third point:

Logan has had excellent character development since the beginning of the series. In the beginning, Logan only cared about the logical solutions for any of Thomas' problems. He would constantly fight one of the other sides about a problem until one of the remaining sides or even Thomas himself forced him to see what he was doing wrong and concede or compromise. But as the series kept going on, Logan started becoming not just more academically intelligent, but very importantly, more emotionally intelligent. He understands the other sides more, and he eventually comes to realize that every side has their merit, even Janus and Remus.

Fourth point:

Logan often gets ignored or dismissed by the other sides and Thomas himself. Yes, Thomas calls on him for help for several situations, and Logan often saves the day, but even so, he doesn't always get the full credit he deserves. The most notable examples of him being dismissed or ignored are in "Moving On," and "Working Through Intrusive Thoughts." In Moving On, Logan makes a mistake and suggests they go to Patton's room, but once he realizes what Patton's room is actually doing (especially to Virgil), he immediately tries to get Thomas and the other sides to leave. Thomas, Roman and Patton ignore him, and Logan gets frustrated enough to leave. In Working Through Intrusive Thoughts, Logan constantly tries to get Thomas to follow his schedule for the day, but Remus keeps breaking Thomas' focus on his chores. Then, once Thomas finally gets called by Nico, the final thread of Thomas' focus on his chores is broken and he instead decides to go meet Nico to look at art. Despite all of this, Logan still tries to listen to everybody, including Janus and Remus.

Fifth point:

There seems to be a pattern with the sides and whether they're associated with more positive or negative traits. Logan, Patton, and Roman are all positive. Janus and Remus are both negative. Virgil is both positive and negative. If Orange is Wrath or Rage, this creates symmetry on both sides, with Orange joining Janus and Remus as a negative trait. This is also supported in the Sanders Sides Anime Intro (which I'm sure everybody already noticed but it's still worth it to me to bring up).

Now, to bring it all together:

If Orange is indeed going to be Rage or Wrath, it absolutely makes sense for him to either take over or split from Logan, because the one emotion that Logan shows consistently and often is anger. His frustrations whenever he makes mistakes, or when he gets ignored or dismissed, and especially his "FALSEHOOD" are all examples of how he commonly has outbursts (or at the very least, visible) bouts of anger. Logan's eyes glowing orange when he yells at Remus in Working Through Intrusive Thoughts only add to this. If Orange is meant to be a reflection/the opposite of Logan, then he'll likely show emotions constantly, with the only thing that stays the same being the outbursts of anger, just severely intensified for Orange. This also opens the door for the character development that Logan has had being completely reversed (no matter whether Logan is taken over or if Orange just splits from him). All of a sudden, the rest of the sides have somebody that simply does not care about their opinions or feelings. Orange likely will ignore all of the rest of the sides, or even lash out at them constantly, never giving them the time of day. Orange will refuse to see the merit in any of the sides' functions, which is the exact opposite of Logan, who tries to see everybody's merit. The new biggest problem becomes avoiding Wrath, but to no avail, as he keeps coming back angrier every time, until eventually they all realize that, just like with Virgil, they need to try to understand him. The only problem with that is that it's harder to understand and accept Wrath than it was to understand Virgil.

No matter what, though:

I am SO hyped for these teasers to pay off, no matter what Orange ends up being. I have no doubts at all about Thomas' ability to create an amazing and compelling character for all of us to love just as much as the other six sides.

I know that OUAT tober doesn't start until, well, October. And I am trying to participate in that through next month. But, I cannot wait. I cannot get this scene out of my mind. And, I have searched and searched for an analysis of this moment and there is none so far as I can tell. So, here is my attempt to start a conversation.

Okay, so at this point, Emma has noticed something is off. She has asked Killian about it and Rumple, speaking via Killian, has dismissed her. Emma tried to connect with a kiss to see if her feeling of off-ness (yeah, I am going with off-ness) should be something she is concerned about and he pulled away and cut it short. (Perhaps because the kiss felt too much like deception and he can only control so much of this interaction when Rumple has his heart?)

Okay, so now the gifset.

Killian speaks the words that Rumple has forced him and looks away immediately. He cannot hold Emma's gaze. You can see a moment of pained disgrace when he glances away. He seems seriously disgusted that he cannot fight the control Rumple has over him.

Emma, who is very sensitive to people she loves, is stunned by the entire show that Rumple has put on through Killian. She also seems to be a bit shaken that Killian would leave her to deal with this without her when he is typically a fight alongside her type. But then, the hand on the arm. The hand that is gripping Emma like a lifeline. THIS IS THE MOMENT THAT HAUNTS ME. I have lost sleep over this moment. It has shaken me to my core. It feels like he is begging her at this moment, pleading with the universe, screaming out for someone to notice him and to save him from drowning in this control that Rumple has over him. But, then, we get that camera pan to his face. And, we see him come into his own a bit. We see him collect himself and we see him refuse to add to Emma's burden. We see him stop begging to be saved and grab enough control over himself that he can and drop her arm, before brushing by her and leaving the diner. And, we are left looking at Emma who knows something is up. She's almost looking at the space he was in like "what the actual? Someone else saw that right?" She's concerned, but she also felt brushed off - as if Killian was telling her that he didn't need her to help.

...Can you imagine how much Captain Killian Jones hates being controlled by the Crocodile? The anguish. He must feel so angry because it is the effing Crocodile. And so, annoyed at himself for allowing the Crocodile to gain this huge advantage over him and to manipulate Emma through him. He must know that Rumple will kill him soon, for his usefulness is about at an end. He just started something with Emma. And, here it is being used for the Crocodile's plan and he will likely die before it can really become something.

And, this just haunts me.

Anyway... PLEASE, please, jump in with your thoughts. (You can send me anything OUAT to discuss and I will be here for you! )

Not Sanderson relation but I had to share how very excited I am to read Murtagh. I’ve had a Thorn book end for years and now it finally gets its Murtagh. ❤️

Also a bit of a fun story- I originally pre-ordered Murtagh on Amazon, expecting that they’d deliver it the release day like they have before.

Well Amazon messed up (and I know I’m not the only one who is having problems with this). My delivery was delayed with no actual date in sight.

I debating going to my local book shop as the book was $8 more expensive. Money’s a bit tight at the moment so I was waffling but after finding out how massively Amazon screwed this whole thing up I just decided to go and buy local. I should have done that to begin with.

I found a copy at the bookstore and took it to the front where the cashier asked me, “Oh! Do you want a signed copy instead? They sent us a few signed copies!”

I freaked out y’all. I see this as my reward for shopping local. $8 more isn’t bad for a signed copy!

Kagari's Blood Ball Outfit!!

Kagari doesn't usually dress up, but he certainly can. His outfit is sakura themed, with a brown base and pink accents/statement pieces. The plan was that he sort of looks like he is a tree (except he's short XD)

Coming... Eventually!

Chapter 1 of “Pressure Points” is officially complete! I’m planning on four chapters in total, though I do hope the remainder of the story writes itself more quickly than this first chapter has. Apologies in advance if the wait approaches a few more weeks (or even months, God forbid). I’m posting this with the expectation that it’ll spur me on a bit. I’ve been dragging my feet, but I want to make sure everything is as perfect as it can be.

In this FTH fic for @discordantwords​ (whom I cannot thank enough! 💜), Magnussen decides to place BOTH John and Sherlock into a life-and-death situation to assess their pressure points during TEH. The picture here is a hint as to what sort of situation that may be. 

A little sneak peek:

#i cannot stress enough that i have NO IDEA when this will be finished #i am so sorry #but i promise it will be #my fics #and there's a second FTH from another bidder after this one! #i'll be busy the remainder of the year #but i am SO EXCITED
