yellowjackets team (alive by season 2) rating and ranking

1. Misty - 9.5/10

i said she was annoying but like i get her now. in both the crash and adult timeline, she has the best story and characterization. maybe because her actresses are so great, but definitely her whole arc is unrivaled.

2. Nat - 9/10

her storylines in both arcs are extremely good. definitely the most important yellowjackets member along with misty, i love their little tandem. i just don't like her purple era but she did find a daughter there!

3. Shauna - 9/10

make up your fucking mind girl! one minute she's against lottie's weird cult shit, the next second she's chasing natalie so she can kill her for food and say the wilderness chose! however her craziness post-birth must be a sort of post natal psychosis. adult shauna makes up like 7 points of the 8.5, she's the better shauna for me because she's a straight up loser with an equally loser husband.

4. Coach Scott - 8/10

high ranking out of pure pity like i am so worried for this man. i hope he's still alive and he's experiencing time-traveling hallucinations or whatever, since time traveling is a pretty big theory. i wish he does survive and all the paul scenes are his present scenes but he's gone off the rocks and thinks he's still in the wilderness. this dude is the only one not extremely or supernatully fucked up bc he didn't participate in the cult thing hopefully. BURN THEM CABINS DOWN BAYBEEE

5. Lottie - 7.5/10

when your schizophrenic dreams are misinterpreted by the rest of the group and you're forced to be the face of cannibalism 😂😂🤣🤣. robbed shauna of her cannibal crown. was just being un-medicated then the rest of the team decided to honor her like a god. there were times were she was annoying but you realize she quite literally has done nothing but every single sidekick of hers decides to speak for her and it just goes wrong every single time.

6. Taissa - 7/10

tie. extremely curious about the bad tai and the man with no eyes, which serves as the only "supernatural" event in the series shown that is not in the wilderness or post-wilderness. it would be fucking crazy if tai was the one who bought "It" in the wilderness instead of it like actually already being there, like maybe that was their home? with all the cult symbols or whatever. sometimes i do just find her boring im sorry, she's just like shauna she's extremely indecisive and it's pissing me off! only 7 bc FREE SIMONE ❤️ joking

8. Travis - 7/10

i pity this man so much but sometimes he's boring and his season 1 arc had me skipping scenes. but his brother went missing, "died", came back, then actually died and then no one said "sorry we had to give up your brother to the wilderness, it was either nat or him and the wilderness chose him! we honestly could've atleast tried in helping him get out of the ice cold water but we were hungy". like can we please give this man a break? i wouldn't be surprised if him and natalie refused to hunt for them, if they're all just going to pick cards and eat each other, why hunt for deer, right?

9. Van - 5/10

i feel like one of the only people with a dislike for van's character like. lottie dickrider, i get you "owe" the wilderness for letting you live like you're obviously the favorite but the way she treats the other yellowjackets pisses me off, especially when she straight up said to travis she wasn't ashamed for sacrificing javi? why is she a stronger indoctrinated christian than lottie? i wish they reveal more about her because to be honest her character's a bit of a blank slate, it would be amazing if they start showing a more deeper relationship between her and whatever's in the wilderness. i feel like, in both the show and the fandom, van doesn't have much to her character without tai. her only storyline without tai is with her mother, which we were shown barely 30 seconds of.

10. Mari - 3/10

i just need her gone

11. girl with the shoulder length hair aka pit girl contender number 56 - 2/10

i remember one line of hers and she was rude to shauna and i just didn't like it

12. lesbian w the cap - 2/10

rude to shauna! dye your hair black and i'll give you a bigger role as possible pit girl number 57

#yellowjackets #shauna shipman #misty quigley #natalie scatorccio #taissa turner #van palmer #lottie matthews #yellowjackets mari #travis martinez #coach ben scott

Bird Song Headcanons

headcanons for lydie, vinnie and the rest of the main characters !!

warnings;; vinnie is vinnie, swearing, cig smoking and alcohol drinking, parent deaths, drug overdose (parents), child abuse, vinnie being the best older brother, normal outsiders warnings,

VINNIE

vinnie is so AHHHHHHH

best way to describe vinnie is malewife

he cooks, he cleans and he takes care of lydie

if im being honest, i based him off of darry if darry wasnt constantly on ponys case

but anyways

vinnie was born vincent frank rockwell on june 18th, 1945 in tulsa, making him twenty years old at the beginning of the story

he is older than lydie by four years

he works at a cafe on the west/northside and is a barista

he is a neutral greaser, he doesn't fight in rumbles but he hangs around Tim and Buck and Veranno (his hcs are further down)

vinnie has some pretty terrible childhood trauma, from witnessing his mother overdose from a prescription pill to his father beating him and lydie

he started smoking cigarettes at the age of twelve, he calls them cancer sticks and exclusively smokes menthols

he thinks they make him better than everyone else

70's! vinnie would absolutely love the doors, jimi hendrix and all of those artists/bands

70's! vinnie moves to california and tries to live out his hippie, stoner, runaway fantasies

anyways

vinnie is dating a neutral chick from the west/north side

maude monroe, a twenty-year bartender at buck's

vinnie and maude are always hip to hip when they're together

vinnie is absolutely obsessed with her

he helps her dye her hair platinum blonde and he will bend over backward to make her happy

that being said lets talk about maude

MAUDE

MAUDE IS A GIRLBOSS ICON

she was born lara monroe on february 7th, 1945 in New Jersey, to her single mother, who worked in a bar when maude was younger

maude had changed her name to maude in memory of her mother, maudie

she moved to tulsa after her mother passed and the idea of still living in Jersey made her stressed out

BUTTTT once she moved to tulsa she met vinnie and lydie at one of buck's parties

she dresses in a minimalistic greaser style

she adores marilyn monroe, audrey hepburn, bette davis, and all of the og girl bosses

she and vinnie have dressed up like holly and paul from breakfast at tiffanys for halloween at least twice since she has seen the film

maude and angela shepard are bffs

absolute besties

if maude isn't with vinnie, she is with angela

70s! maude and vin get married after they move to cali

70s! maude gets into very cringy and shitty horror/ thriller films and she dresses very similar to stevie nicks

maude and lydie defo smoke weed together

they hotbox in maudes and vins stolen chevy impala

anyways let's get to lydie

LYDIE

our main bae

alr first things first

bae is an angry, angsty sixteen yr old who was born on august 29th, 1949

she and vinnie have always been super close especially once their mother died

lydie is in tenth grade with ponyboy, she and pony have study sessions

anyways enough of that boring shit

lydie listens to nina simone, julie london, ella fitzgerald, billie holiday and most of the music greasers listen to (not saying that the greasers listen to nina, billie, or any of the people I listed )

lydie will say that she loves one song and then go back on that and claim she loves another song, she cannot decide what her favorite song is

her fav song is april come she will by simon and garfunkle

she is a very smart person, like she and pony are some of the smartest greasers regarding book smarts

she is definitely one of the more responsible greasers

she isn't respectful to authority but she is more kind to others compared to dallas for an example

anyways

she mostly hangs around pony and johnny with the occasional dallas and soda

SPEAKING OF DALLAS

she and dallas have full-on brawls

dallas will say something completely buck wild and she will fucking go off on him

throwing punches and slapping and just a full-on beatdown between the two at least until they're broken up

vinnie or darry pull them apart and make them apologize

lydie and dallas have a very complicated and complex relationship

lydie will say she absolutely fucking hates him

and dallas will be like "shes so wonderful"

its his mommy issues

its fine tho cuz ultimately they fall in love after a near death experience and lydie is like "nah im just in love with what he did" but in reality...

she is in love with him, period.

also read dallas' hcs right here

alright last but not least, lets talk about veranno

VERANNO

my sweet baby

veranno is literally the dirtiest and most raunchy greaser out there

he is always in and out of jail, constantly getting into arguments and fights, and he's never quiet

never a relaxing time with him

veranno was born veranno gerard bianco in new york on april 27th, 1945 making him twenty years old

he is an orphan who was never adopted or cared for

he hangs around anywhere, in alleys, in ditches, in vans

he is everywhere

he mostly hangs around vinnie and his friends when he isnt in jail

like dallas, he has been in jail for squatting and breaking in several times

lydie writes to him all the time, especially when his stay is longer

he travels a lot, he visits nevada and arizona a lot, just to get away from tulsa

regarding what music he's into, he exclusively listens to chuck berry, elvis, and all of those fifties artists

he makes fun of people when he overhears them listening to bob dylan, the beatles or simon and garfunkle

he thinks they are "pussy musicians"

lydie will defend them so hard

dallas is very jealous of veranno and literally no one knows why

most people think it's because of lydie and how close veranno is to her

but dallas will deny it every time its brought up

anyways

last but not least

veranno has a big soft spot for children

when he was a teenager (13-15)

he babysat this rich families children and these children changed him

he treated them like they were his own

i luv veranno sm

thank you for reading !!

Fic Update

My mind is still mostly caught up in the Wildlife Photographers AU, but I have also been working on my other stuff. Thought I’d post a preview of chapter one of my “Daryl is a Savior” AU. No sexy bits as it’s before he and Paul met.

Satan, Your Kingdom Must Come Down

Chapter 1:

Memories come to him as he sits in the cell, too tired to be awake but unable to sleep through the sound of that fucking song.

He remembers back to when everything started. Remembers coming back to camp and seeing Officer Friendly standing there and saying that he and two other guys had left Merle chained to a roof surrounded by the dead. Officer Friendly— fuck, what had that self-righteous prick’s name been again? Rick something— had agreed to come to the city to help Daryl get Merle back. Make up for getting him stuck in the first place. Daryl had started to think the guy was alright until they found Merle passed out in the sun, a bloody gash on his arm where he’d started to try to saw the thing off to escape his chains. Relations soured after that.

He wonders if Officer Rick Friendly is still alive, if his wife and his kid and his best good buddy Officer Bitch had lived as well. He wonders if Officer Friendly ever realized Mrs. Friendly had been porking Officer Bitch while he was away. No doubt that situation had exploded and Family Friendly were long dead. The kid had been alright though, one cool little customer with all the bullshit surrounding him and Daryl reluctantly hopes that Carl Grimes is still alive.

Grimes. Rick Grimes, that had been his name. There’d been others, most whose names he didn’t remember, just the nicknames Merle had given them. Short Round, a Chinese kid in his twenties who had a ball cap practically glued to his head. Kiddie Diddler, a fat fuck whose eyes followed his own daughter in a way that disturbed Merle and Daryl both. Mrs. Kiddie Diddler, also known as Mouse Girl because her hair was mouse gray and she scurried after her husband like a little mouse. Old Man Eyebrows lurking on the top of his RV. Blondie and her kid sister Barely Legal Blondie; Merle’d been particularly fond of the two of them. It wasn’t mutual. Family Taco Bender. He guessed they were all dead as well, although the Chinese Kid was sneaky and quick as fuck, he might’ve made it. Daryl hopes he is still alive along with Carl Grimes.

He remembers after. Wanting to go in the direction Officer Friendly and that whole crew wasn’t, heading North and East. Running into a soldier who said Washington was the only place left standing. Washington, Washington. The soldier hadn’t lasted long enough for Daryl to remember his name or for Merle to give him a new one. They found a new group, and Daryl remembers their names. Simon and Regina and Michelle and Dwight and Sherry and Tina and others who are dead now.

He reminds himself that Simon is also dead now. Daryl had forgotten, even though Simon’s death is the reason he is in this cell waiting to die. He has no illusions about this; Negan is not going to forgive Daryl for executing Simon no matter what his reasons were. Negan didn’t even ask, just raged at Daryl while swinging Lucille through the air. The only reason Daryl’s brains aren’t splattered all over the walls is because Negan must still have some purpose for him.

This fact hurts Daryl more than he knows it should. It also hurts more than he knows it should that no one else spoke for him when Negan dragged him onto the factory floor, not even Dwight or Tina or Michelle. Turned out Merle was right after all when he said no one was ever gonna care for Daryl except him. Right before he died Merle had also said of Negan, “He ain’t right, baby brother. Get clear of ‘im.” Daryl had ignored his brother’s advice even if he never forgot it.

Daryl closes his eyes, in the blackness it makes no difference. It’s cold in this cell; he thinks it would be cold even if they let him have clothes. Cold as the night the Dixon brothers found Negan, a big guy alone and huddled by his fire cooking a skinny rabbit carcass.

Things that sneak up on me at night are dead or about to be, Negan said when he heard Daryl and Merle approach. Merle exchanged a glance with Daryl, the fact that the guy heard them was hella impressive. Merle gave Daryl a nod, and stepped into the light with his hands raised.

You ain’t gonna finish that whole thing by yourself? Merle said with an ironic grin, Name’s Merle. You look like you can use some company.

I’m Negan, the big guy said, What’s the name of your friend?

Merle looked even more impressed, My friend’s shy. We got a group nearby, you’d come in handy.

Introduce me to your friend out there first, Negan said.

Daryl, come on out, Merle said.

Daryl stepped into the light of the fire, getting his first good look at Negan. Handsome under the wild growth of beard, with black eyes and hair, Holy shit, is that a crossbow?

Sure is, Daryl replied.

Let me hold that bad son of a bitch for a minute and I’ll see about blessing your group with my presence.

Blessing? Daryl said.

Well, I am a badass and funny as fuck. Plus I got a big dick if you got any ladies in need of satisfying. Or guys, I guess. Can’t be too picky at the end of the world.

Merle laughed, I like this asshole.

Daryl is jerked out of this memory when the door to his cell opens. The light slams into his eyeballs, drilling into his skull. He grunts and covers his eyes.

Clothes are thrown at him, and the door shuts again. Daryl scrambles into them. They smell old and musty, the same way the sheets at the Mountain View Hotel smelled. They stayed there for over two months before the dead overtook it. Merle started fucking Michelle while they were there; although Daryl thought they’d messed around a bit on the road before. She was too young and pretty for Merle, but it was the end of the world and Daryl supposed a woman’s priorities changed. Merle was an asshole but he was tough, could protect her, provide for her, and if the way she hollered when they fucked was any indication it wasn’t that big of a hardship.

Think she’s faking it? Negan asked Daryl one night when he’d been driven from his room by the sounds of a baseboard thumping against the wall and his brother’s shouts of Yeah baby, yeah, as Michelle screamed like she was being murdered.

Dunno, Daryl said.

She’s faking it, Negan said, No way your brother’s mouse dick can make a woman moan like that.

Daryl snorted, How do you know so much about my brother’s dick?

Can tell by how he walks, Negan replied, Look at how I walk, my massive cock throws off my balance. He demonstrated with an exaggerated strut and Daryl laughed. Negan was as crude and vulgar as Merle but less of an asshole. Daryl liked him.

What about you, Negan asked him, any of the fine ladies of this group strike your fancy? Tina’s a little sweet on you, I think.

Daryl started to sweat uncomfortably, She’s just a kid. I ain’t…I ain’t good with women anyhow.

Your brother wasn’t just talking shit when he said you were shy, Negan laughed, I’m just breaking your balls, man. A rare note of seriousness came to Negan’s voice then, I haven’t dipped my wick since this whole thing started, you know? Had opportunities, the gals were willing, but…none of them were my Lucille.

Daryl thinks that should have been his first clue that something wasn’t right with Negan. Even back then he’d called the bat he used “Lucille”. Even if back then the only thing he used it on was the dead Daryl should’ve known. But everyone was a little fucking crazy these days and Daryl didn’t see how fucked up Negan was, not then.

When the dead came and overwhelmed the hotel it was Negan that kept the group together, bellowing orders while fighting his way through the dead, swinging Lucille and cracking the heads of the walkers.

Dwight cover me best you can while I work my way toward you! Merle, Daryl, and Michelle fight your way toward me! Tina and Sherry! You’re in the clear, run! See if you can secure a point outside we can all meet up!

We can do this! If we work together we can all survive! Nobody has to die today! FIGHT!

Daryl remembers fighting his way toward Negan, meeting in the center of the hotel lobby surrounded by the dead. He was using his crossbow as a club, his bolts long spent.

Let’s go, everybody’s out! Merle shouted. The four of them turned and made a run for it. They were almost out when Daryl’s foot came down on the outstretched hand of a dead walker. He stumbled and went down.

Daryl! Merle shouted, turning around. Everything seemed to happen in slow motion after that.

Merle started toward Daryl instinctually, and was stopped by a shout from Michelle. She was grappling with a walker, more were coming in. Daryl saw the agony in Merle’s eyes when he made his decision, and Daryl saw what that decision was.

Before Daryl had to watch his brother turn his back on him Negan bellowed out, I got him! Get out of here!

Then Negan was helping him to his feet, smashing aside walkers with Lucille, they were fighting their way outside to where the others were waiting.

I’m sorry, Merle said to him the next day when the group had finally been able to stop running.

Daryl shrugged, It turned out ok. I get it. Women and children first.

Merle gave him a sideways look, then said, You’re right about that, Uncle Daryl.

It took Daryl a second to realize what Merle had just said. To see the smug “my boys can swim” look on Merle’s face.

Really? Daryl said, disbelieving. He knew for a fact Merle had knocked a few women up over the years and each one got driven to the clinic down in Atlanta as soon as he became aware. In the days before the entire fucking world ended Merle would’ve run out on any woman about to have his kid, not looked proud and happy.

Really really. We gotta repopulate the world, brother. You need to get on it yourself once we’re settled down.

Negan said much the same thing when Merle and Michelle announced it to the group. Fuck yeah, brother! We gotta start making more people. Don’t worry about it, we’ll find sanctuary before the kid comes. I promise.

The cell door opens and all those memories scatter from his mind. Negan is standing in the light of the doorway, Lucille over his shoulder. He’s calmer than he was when Daryl saw him last, which makes him more frightening.

“Daryl,” Negan says with a sigh, “What am I gonna do with you?”

If you could delete any word from existence, which word would it be and why? Tr*mp. It makes my blood curdle when I hear that name.

What is your favorite swearword? Fuck.

What celebrity do you wish you looked more like? I’m okay.

If you had your way, what color(s) would you dye your hair? I do have my way and it’s currently blue and purple.

Do you support the LGBTQ community? If not, state your reasons. You are entitled to your opinions. It’s not an opinion if it’s diminishing an entire group of people--you’re just an asshole.

Do you like seafood? If so, what is your favorite? If not, what is your favorite type of food? I LOVE seafood. Crab is my favorite.

Have you ever gone vegan/vegetarian? Nope and I never will. I’m trying to cut back on my red meat intake though and stick to fish and poultry only.

Have you ever eaten a veggie burger? I have.

If you could master any sport, which one would you choose? Swimming.

If you could meet any major political figure, who would it be? What would you say to him/her? I’d like to line up every republican and punch each one in the face.

Do you play any unique instruments? No.

In school, did you take any classes to learn how to play any instruments? No.

Do you know any German words? Sure.

How about any Portuguese words? No.

Did you actually pay attention in Spanish class? Yeah.

Do you have a reason to hate anyone at the moment? Yes.

Is it easier for you to forgive or to pretend it never happened? Depends.

Unpopular opinion time. Be honest. The Beatles - overrated or not? Both.

What religion were you raised in? Are you still that religion, if you had one? I wasn’t raised in any religion. We weren’t baptized. My mom was a very spiritual person and I am pretty sure she believed in God in one way or another, but she didn’t follow a religion. She had her own version of faith. My dad just didn’t care about that stuff at all, haha. They were both respectful of people who did follow religion and I felt like they would have been/would be cool with whatever paths my sister and I decided to lead.

What religion/spiritual path intrigues you the most, if any? I like the idea that people live on in spirit in nature, and that there are spirits that control nature and shit, whatever that would be called.

What ancient culture intrigues you the most, if any? Greek.

What was/is your favorite subject in school? Sociology.

What was the last name of your second grade teacher? Mrs. Yamanaka.

Who was your favorite teacher of all time? My Kindergarten teacher Mrs. Furuta. She taught us so much; not just basic kindergarten stuff. We learned about different cultures and she set up these “trips” where we’d pretend we were in an airplane and “fly” to the country we were learning about. She would set up these “shops” where we could “buy” food and trinkets from the country with fake money. We had an EPIC fort we build out of boxes. We celebrated the Chinese New Year and did a ton of origami. I remember her class vividly and fondly. She recently reached out to my sister (who also had her) and I which was a really nice surprise and showed how much she loved her students.

Were/are you a teacher’s pet? In that class ^ yes. I could already read by the time I started Kindergarten and she’d ask me to read to the class every once in a while, which I LOVED.

Do you like pink lemonade? I don’t mind it but it’s not my first choice.

Do you have a Spotify account? I do.

What’s your favorite U2 song, if you have one? Eh.

What’s your favorite song that’s playing on the radio, if you have one? Anything Ariana right now.

What’s a song that you remember from your childhood? Graceland by Paul Simon.

Are/were your parents hippies? Yup.

Would you ever consider getting dreadlocks? No because I am white.

If you had a baby girl right now, what would her middle name(s) be? I am never ever ever having kids, but if hell froze over and we did have a daughter, her middle name would be Kay because it’s my mom’s middle name and also Mark’s mom’s middle name.

What heritage does your last name imply? German/Czech.

How about your middle name? I just looked it up because I never knew but apparently it’s Roman?

And first? My first name is Hebrew.

What is your heritage, anyway? German, Czech, Jewish, Finnish, Swedish, some other shit.

Were your parents born in the United States? Most importantly, were you? If not, what country? Yes.

Name an American stereotype? Lol.

What was your favorite age so far? I don’t know.

What was your least favorite age so far? I don’t know.

Were you/are you in a rush to grow up? Nah.

What’s your opinion on tattoos in the workforce? How about piercings? I see no issue with either.

Do women breastfeeding in public make you feel uncomfortable? Why or why not? Nope. Why should it?

Do you know the band The Last Place You Look? No.

If not, you should check them out. Do you like A Day To Remember? If not, they’re a lot like The Last Place You Look. Cool story.

What is the most annoying commercial you’ve seen/heard this past week? I saw this ad on a YouTube video the other day that was selling some menstrual cup thing and it kept saying how you can’t have sex on your period?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

What is your favorite holiday? Halloween and Christmas.

What holidays do you choose not to participate in, but others celebrate? I’m sure there are a few.

“Happy Holidays,” “Merry Christmas,” or “Merry X-Mas?’ Whatever.

Does it even matter to you which one people say? No.

Why is that every major Christian holiday adopts Pagan traditions in its celebrations? Uh.

NieR:Automata: I Had A Sandwich

Hopefully it's chilled out now.

- right so imma just catch up to where i was rq

- attempted the parade again. still sucks, can't defeat the enemies fast enough and the camera is a little bitch.

- right then, back to where we were

- ohhhh this upgrading thingy is probably how we unlock weapon stories....i shall be farming later

- splurges to upgrade my shit

- oh. jean-paul is missing now. surely this will be good. oh, that's it? neat, i am done with that bag of bolts.

- Okay I THINK i am out of sidequest hell, which means......pit

- and it doesn't occur to anyone else that maybe the drill-fitted worm-like machines had something to do with the massive underground hollow? really? none of these robots are connecting those dots?

- sure down we go-- uh.....9S? u ok there buddy???

- ftr i am positioned such that he keeps spawning, immediately jumping over 2B, and right off the ledge down into the pit....

- and first thing i do is sit down and start fishing

- another goddamn locked chest down here

- looks pretty old, 9S says, yet there's machines with lit torches down here....

- mystery elevator. cannot access.

- stairs. that's ominous! in a cave that was supposedly drilled!

- no dead machines anymore....

- what the fuck is this place

- .....well, I was right that there ain't no alien invaders anymore. I think I'm going to need to watch that cutscene again.

- so Adam and Eve are Ken Doll Sephiroth and Ken Doll Sephiroth 2.0

- they have acquired pants and tats and such since I last saw them. And, evidently, been to a hairdresser.

- i cannot blame them for the fascination with humans and our contradictions but could they be less creepy about it?

- sooooo did adam and eve attack and dethrone god--

- (listen, "the graveyard of those who made us", come on)

- also didn't we kill Adam???? why is he back

- did I meet these two again between their birth and now, I genuinely do not remember

- AW SHIT DID I UNLOCK FAST TRAVEL???? FUCK YEAH

- guess i'll go do that one remaining sidequest objective before hitting Bunker

- the commander is not commando and 2B got mad at the camera for peeking

- no reply from the moon regarding the alien signal huh. and no instructions about Adam and Eve. And she thinks they're not interested in Earth anymore.....hhhhahaha i HOPE it's that simple.

- squints at this npc questioning who the war is for at this point

- it has been brought to my attention that the mystery script in the intel thingy is in fact celestial script and can actually be translated, and identified Adam before he actually got his name

- trying to translate the other bosses I've gotten: MADX, SIMONH, and HNsomethingHLS. Unless those are E? Which makes it SIMONE and ENsomethingELS.

- leave transporter area, immediately get given a quest to go right back to it....sigh.

- hm. so that was a trap. didn't feel like one.

- i have fells some boar and moose. i.....do not love this. but i need the hides to upgrade some weapons and I want that sweet, sweet lore.

- okay i think i got all the beast hides i need....i hope.....

- ding!

- fuck it let's keep hitting the main objectives for now

- time to talk to Pascal about being a hippie in a treehouse

- oh.....so the machines haven't gotten a single message from the aliens for centuries.... granted im pretty sure Adam and Eve said the aliens were wiped out BY the machines centuries, maybe millennia ago? but still this means not all the machines know....

- which if my theory that the humans aren't actually out there anymore is true means the machines and androids are in the same damn boat and just keep fighting because "we're supposed to"

- ah so next i go to the forest kingdom!

- wait fuck if the aliens are gone then where did the recent signal from them when the ground collapsed come from

- and what was the purpose of collapsing the ground like that.....just to get 2B and 9S down there for "negotiations"?

- commander is sus af

- side trip to the desert to meet the one resistance member's family!

- IS ANOTHER 9S

- the bgm has gone all creepy and like, dude, i don't....see anything wrong with this?

- let my dude have a family, also S units deserve love and care

- i'm off to the Forest Kingdom! which sounds like a fantasy disney land but i bet it won't be!

- it's foggy.

- nothing good happens in fog.

- .....or without bgm.

- okay the music is back and there are piggie noises

- i am off to the forest kingdom a different way bc it wasn't the path i thought

- OHHH I NEED TO CROSS THE CHASM

- if YoRHa aren't allowed to be emotional, why is it possible????

- also like nearly all of them ARE, like the operator who was sobbing earlier, or the ones who get super passionate about research or flight units

- I think it's just Commander who isn't, really, and 2B by virtue of forcing herself to be

- prettiest goddamn mall--

- okay how.....do i *onward*

- find a mechanism, found an ambush--

- uh

- waht he fuck

- WELL THAT SURE HAPPENED

- YOKO TARO HAPPENED

- WHICH IS MORE SPECIFIC THAN ONE MIGHT THINK IN THIS, A GAME MADE BY YOKO TARO

- whoaaaaa okay

- so like wheremst on earth IS this, anyway?

- there's a bigass desert which granted could've been the result of war shit, but there's this idyllic forest with a picture-perfect fantasy castle here too....it's relatively coastal and had a big city full of skyscrapers, there's mountain-y rock formations...there was a theme park....

- found a....rancher? i'm glad I didn't have to kill him, and I wasn't gonna kill his critters

- god this is such a story though....machines and androids won't age or die on their own, right? so this robot has potentially been out here for hundreds of years, tending to animals that WILL....

- 9S why are you still questioning that machines can understand things like loyalty

- we are getting into the castle now....or at least, i think we've crossed the grounds preceeding it enough to start to!

- looking at the map: that's a big-ass castle!

- brb snack break

- (hamburger bun with honey, for the curious: it's what we've got)

- OKAY I THINK I'M READY TO RAID A CASTLE

- why the fuck am i raiding it, i don't know, i'm just kind of here and doing this now

- I was told the prologue of this game is really actually your entire first two playthroughs so, that's fun

- oh, the castle is sidescrolly too? boooo

- oh wait fuck it's a metroidvania actually

- puzzles my way through this shit

- found a blacksmith--

- OOOH THIS DUDE IS PROBABLY THE DUDE WHO CAN TAKE MY GEAR TO LEVEL 4

- HE CAN

- i just don't have the shit he needs to do it

- wait my white swords were made by a machine?? or worked on by them??? or this dude was mentored by an android

- OH WAIT HE MEANS LIKE

- THE ONE I FOUND IN A TREE NEARISH THE AMUSEMENT PARK

- dude says there's more sealed weapons to find let's fuckin' find 'em

- okay that's three boxes thus far with parts for a machine lifeform that i "don't need"

- one's in the library, one's across the right side of the lower bridge after you get up through the library, one's on the left side of the courtyard like third floor ish?

- oh thank goodness a vending machine thingy

- i think there's a chest i missed somewhere in here but fuck i am lost my spacial awareness is SO BAD Y'ALL

- this place is SO fuckin' pretty

- King is....babie? babey?????

- KING IS DEAD

- THAT'S THE OTHER CHICK FROM THE COVER

- OH FUCK WE GOTTA FIGHT AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

- she's not attacking yet.....approach..............cautiously?

- nop 9S decided sword time so sword time it shall be

- "command is the one that betrayed you" yeah i was already sus of that

- screw whatever i've forgotten YEET

- ....I wonder WHY A2 killed babyking...

- see this forest path back to Pascal's is the path I tried to come the first time

- time to ask pascal about A2 and probably end up on the run from Bunker for asking too many questions

- 6O is so precious and I fully support her and 2B

- shoves more money at the inventor

- wheremst might one find a Lunar Tear, I wonder....

- mail! Jackass wants to feed me fish. i do not think this will end well.

- return of sidequest hell....imma finish up after feesh i think

- mackerel

- EXQUISITE

Thinking about this, you should do a reading of his Another man mixtape

Hi anon! Oh no that parallel isn't painful at all sobs.

Ok I’m going to dive into this mixtape but I gotta be honest I'm a little bit scared. Reading (into) Harry's favorite 10 songs of all time is a bit of a daunting task and I don't want to dissappoint (myself). But let's just talk about it and see where it leads.

Quick background info: in 2016 Harry was interviewed for Another Man which, besides the interview and the photoshoot, came with his most treasured possessions and his top 10 favorite tracks of all time presented in the form of a mixtape

spotify playlist here

Pink Floyd - Breathe

Elvis Presley – Can’t Help Falling in Love

Paul McCartney – Heart of the Country

Crosby, Stills & Nash – Helplessly Hoping

Ray Charles – Drown in My Own Tears

Blaze Foley – Ooh Love

Simon & Garfunkel – Bridge Over Troubled Water

Van Morrisson – Tupelo Honey

Travis – Flowers in the Window

Patsy Cline – She’s Got You

A reading of Harry's Another Man Mixtape - top 10 songs of all time below the cut:

I'm just staring at the first song pretty much thinking oh shit im in trouble already.

It’s easy to see why this is H’s favorite song, I mean how can you not love Breathe. It's a masterpiece. I kinda don't even wanna touch it and let it speak for itsself. I interpret Breathe as well, life. And to choose your path carefully. It starts with a heartbeat+baby crying / rollercoaster ride, which, well, both symbolize (the start of) life. The first verse being about enjoying life while you're young that bleeds into the second verse, getting older, the 3rd verse could be interpreted as the grind, the last verse issuing that warning if you dont ride the tide, if you don't find that balance, when the high's too high (and the low's too low) I guess, that's just gonna be it for you.

I don't think I need to relate that to H, it relates to everybody. For us regular boring peoples it can easily be interpreted as finding that balance to enjoy life and not waste it away working, the way society tells you is the standard, while for artists that applies as well, but also they're living the very high highs and some lose themselves in it, "race towards an early grave". I’m sure there are also parallels between Breathe and Harry’s lyrics, but I mean both artists are ~~nice and vague~~, so I don’t think it will be easy to spot them (I tried briefly and didn’t see much but I might be blind)(but don't get me started on Wish You Were Here)

Also, overlapping themes with Harry's work (I think I found a way to kinda go over these songs):

Nautical theme (ride the tide, wave)

Crying (tears you'll cry)

wet (^)

Sun/shine (forget the sun)

Flying (high you fly)

high highs and low lows (verse 4)

don't want to be alone/ staying/leaving (leave, don't leave me)

growth (like the whole song)

looking for somewhere to belong

Well if this isn't up there with the most universally loved sappy lil oh he in looove songs. This is just a beautiful beautiful beautiful song but I don't think there's much to say about it, the lyrics speak for themselves.

Also:

Hopeless romantic (I mean the whole song)

don't want to be alone/ staying/leaving (shall I stay / take my whole life too) strike 2

nautical theme (like a river flows surely to the sea) strike 2

wet (^) strike 2

looking for somewhere to belong (some things are meant to be / in an "i belong with you" sense) strike 2

But also

Don't blame me for falling - To Be So Lonely

Again I just LOVE these songs, I'm gonna find a quiet place to settle and it's gonna be beautiful. This song is also doing this lil trick of changing single words in a line to change the meaning as you get to later verses (Looking for a home -> living in a home, I want a sheep -> I got a sheep), taking the listener along on a trip through time, just with tiny tiny lyric changes (Flowers in the window / Sunflower vol 6 do this too).

Also:

LOOKING FOR SOMEWHERE TO BELONG STRIKE 3

high highs and low lows (I Look high, I look low) strike 2

growth (where the holy people grow) strike 2

"Home" (yes generic af, but do you really expect me not to aggressively point at each and every mention of home when Harry just Sweet Creatured that shit to the Canyon Moon and back)

This song is fun! I mean... the song is sad and all, but the wordplay is fun:

Helplessly hoping her harlequin hovers

Gasping at glimpses of gentle

Wordlessly watching he waits by the window and wonders

Heartlessly helping himself

Stand by the stairway you'll see something

Certain to tell you confusion has its cost

Love isn't lying, It's loose in a lady who lingers

I’m really really resisting the urge to turn that chorus into a larry

Also,

Hopeless romantic strike 2

flying (wishing he could fly) strike 2

don't want to be alone/ staying/leaving strike 3

LOOKING FOR SOMEWHERE. TO. BELONG. STRIKE 4

Jesus Harry this is really hopeless. Ok.. pff.. ehh...

really hopeless romantic strike 3

a whole lotta crying strike 2

REALLY REALLY WET strike 3

"Home" strike 2

"Blue"

don't want to be alone/ staying/leaving strike 4

looking for somewheretobelong(this is getting excessive)strike 5

"blue" strike (blue eyes even this time) 2

hopeless fking romantic again strike 4

don't want to be alone/ staying/leaving (see me/her again) strike 5

And as @ladychlo points out, "If I Could Only Fly" this is on the same album, which had me comparing this album to IICF, and, welp you can make this comparison:

Which yep not painful at all no. I really like the “If only I could fly” vs “If I could fly” + “[for your eyes] only”.

Again like all my posts I have to emphasize when pointing out song parallels I’m not saying that the song that came later is definitely intentionally is purposefully inspired by the other one, effectively made out of bits and pieces of the other one. I don’t know that. You don’t know that. Who knows? Is Olivia even a person? Was it ever a family show (it wasn’t)? I’m just saying, it’s possible that the artist, H in this case, took inspiration from it as he has said so himself he writes music as a fan of music and this is in his top 10 songs of all time. So in this case specifically, it’s maybe not thaaat crazy to think that If I Could Fly is effectively a Blaze Foley fanpiece? (and that that doesn’t invalidate any interpretation of what IICF meant to H, that that’s what he felt at the time of writing it either) I mean ... look at it... That shit looks *inspired*.

Again all these songs are SO GOOD but would you expect anything less? One problem with this one tho, reading it like this all I’m seeing is Through The Dark. But I don’t want to make this post about songs Harry didn’t write

So I made a seperate post about this

Anyways I’m seeing loads of parallels with Harry’s music with this one,

Falling as the feeling on the other side of this song in a way, or let’s put it differently: with Falling describing how Harry is feeling, I understand he would take deep comfort in this song. (crying again)

more parallels:

Sail on silver girl, sail on by

She: He takes a boat out, imagines just sailing away

All your dreams are on their way

She: She lives in daydreams with me

Your time has come to shine See how [your dreams] shine

Lights Up: Shine, step into the light / Shine, I’m not ever going back

If you need a friend (I’m sailing right behind)

She: And not telling his mates, he wouldn’t know what to say

Also “Oh, if you need a friend, I’m sailing right behind”:

a whole lotta crying strike 3

nautical (bridge over troubled water/ sail on (by)) strike 3

yep it has both it's really damn wet again strike 4

sun/shine (see how they shine/it's time to shine) strike 2

high highs and low lows (down-and-out) strike 3

looking for somewhere to belong strike 6

don't want to be alone/ staying/leaving strike 6

bzz bzz it's bees and honey....

And I can’t not mention my only angel, although that song doesn’t really share a theme

nautical theme strike 4

which makes wet strike 5

"blue" strike 3

LOOKING.FOR.SOMEWHERE.TO.BELONG (sail around / road to freedom) STRIKE 7

Pretty convinced he took inspiration from this song writing Sunflower vol 6.

I discuss Flowers in the Window here

but also:

that snowman is melting so wet strike 6 lol

really fucking hopeless and romantic strike 5

growth strike 3

Did he say he’s looking for somewhere to belong yet strike 8

don't want to be alone/ staying/leaving strike 7

hopeless romantic strike 6

don't want to be alone/ staying/leaving strike 8

Here another anon came in with the realisation that this is basically Just A Little Bit Of Your Heart/Girl Crush/Woman

This parallel is just massively painful:

I’ve got these little things, she’s got you

JALBOYH: Just a little bit of your heart is all I’m asking for

And indeed, just like JALBOYH, Girl Crush, and Woman, this song describes thes singer seeing this other woman with their lover, basically driving them insane, only having these little things, having to share the one you love with her[unaffectionate]. Great, like I needed a 4th song telling me how shitty bearding is.

Ok I’m making stupid parallels with this song, just let me ramble for a bit, I’m going feral, don’t mind me

And I just saw a painful awful why did I see this parallel with Sunflower vol 6:

I’ve got your picture, she’s got you

Sunflower vol 6: I've got your face, Hung up high in the gallery

I’ve got your memory or, has it got me

Sunflower vol 6: Sunflowers, Sometimes, Keep it sweet in your memory

Also She: Lives for the memory, A woman who's just in his head

I’ve got the records, she’s got you

Canyon moon: She plays songs I've never heard

All of these are hurting me. Even the ones I don’t think are meant in this context.

So in conclusion, themes in these songs that Harry also writes about:

“Home” 2/10

Flying 2/10

Sun/shine 2/10

Growth 3/10

When the high’s too high and the low’s too low 3/10

“Blue” 3/10

Crying 3/10

Nautical 4/10

^But putting them together -> wet 6/10

Hopeless truely very hopelessly romantic 6/10

Don’t wanna be alone / staying/leaving 8/10

Looking for somewhere to belong 8/10

Excuse me while I go crying in a corner.
