#i didn’t choose it it chose me

[entropys]

my life is just a series of unfortunate events at this point.. u won’t believe what just happened to me this is the second most chaotic morning i’ve ever experienced

#i would believe it actually bc its not the first this happened…. god #i woke up 15 minutes before my exam 😀 and my house is 30 minutes away from uni…. #lets just say thank god i wear random tshirts for bed bc i didn’t change my shirt and my outfit looked good despite not choosing it #i didn’t choose it it chose me #anyways it was already established that im going to be late when i was half way there i realized that i did not bring a pen :) #i called my friend that i met last year and asked her if she was at uni thank god she was there and was on break too just waiting #she gave me a pen i entered 20 mins late but my dr was nice and let me come it and take the exam #and it was super easy even tho i didn’t really study for it :] it all worked out at the end #now im back home and i have to leave for another exam in 2 hours #the chaos lives on #*

Do you ever experience the thing where you're too tired to do anything but your anxiety about not doing the things you need to do keep you from falling asleep so then you don't get enough sleep and you're more tired the next day and the cycle repeats?

Same.

Hey, Marionetta fandom, I have a question. Okay, so I dressed up as Tonny today because of a big celebration in my school and so i had to wonder something.

Feel free to explain in the tags!! I wanna hear some thoughts!!

#marionetta #tonny marionetta #anthonn gremminger #sahed #sahed marionetta #dotty #dotty marionetta #amalia #amalia marionetta #what’s the god called? #also for silly goofy context we had to dress up as villains with hearts #i chose tonny because he’s the closest one to a villain with a redeemable path #like being remorseful of killing mr. finnegan plus all the pressure he places on himself #i didn’t choose amalia because a) i forgot about her lol and b) there’s not much to suggest she has a heart #again it got me thinking is tonny truly the antagonist/main villain? #because like the stuff he does is bad but is he the villain?

I wish we lived in a world where I didn’t have to factor in things like “will this actually make enough money to pay off its own degree and live comfortably in this increasingly expensive world” when making my career choices because I think I would’ve really enjoyed devoting my life to studying entomology or icthyology or something instead of picking a practical but kinda bland field of engineering

#not that you can’t make it as a biologist. it’s just much more limited and not guaranteed in this increasingly expensive world #and also when I originally made the choice I was a suicidally depressed egg who didn’t really think I would have a future #now I have a future it’s just more profitable and less interesting than what I could’ve done #but I’m glad I chose what I did because being a trans woman in a field that already doesn’t make much money would probably suck even more #i hate that I have to care about money #maybe some day in the far future something might happen that will make me choose to go back to school and study what I’m passionate about #i don’t at all hate my field of study. it just puts me in close proximity to business related things that are dreadfully boring and depressi #depressing

there’s a progression in there, somewhere, of even going from ‘the master might kill me any day now :(‘ to ‘the master is going to kill me :) she’s not going to let someone else do it after all this time’

#i wouldn’t call it hubris exactly. more like this pretty secure surity that that’s how they’re going to die. #and to them that makes sense. they chose this. they keep choosing it after the doctor offers them a way out. #because this is. they understand this. and they feel safe in the reprieve before their death. #how do you control death? choose who kills you. the last defense of a prey animal. #something something dark mirror to clara’s ‘i am owed’ speech for even is if this ever. doesn’t work out the way they thought it would. #clara tried to threaten the doctor so that he’d reverse death for her. even would turn on the master if she tried to spare them. #i am owed better. i am owed the death you promised… i am owed the knowledge that you don’t care enough to save me… you know. something like #that. #even is. kind of. meant to mirror the doctor’s companions at the time. they are a martha who can’t leave him. they are a donna who has to #remember and never speak about everything they know. they are clara if during deep breath clara reached back and truly didn’t expect. truly #hoped. that no one would take her hand. because if they can be certain it will happen they can know never to reach again. #jesus christ. go to therapy boy. you have so many trust issues. #but that’s why they’re Like That with the master because at the end of the day. who is easier to rely on? the guy who comes in to put out #fires but only sometimes. or the guy who. really really fucking likes starting fires. #better to get burned hoping someone is coming or get burned knowing that’s what would happen. and even. chooses the latter. #AND ALL OF THIS. for me to say thats why i cant actually let the master ever kill them. #i think she needs to do something worse to even. i think she needs to abandon them. #and that will either set them free to go have healthy normal relationships or. lets be honest much more likely. completely fucking break #them. which would be fun :) for me. #dw oc

It climbs out of the stinging cold liquid. It managed to swim onto the beach……..it doesn’t remember anything.

It doesn’t remember it’s name, it’s friends, it’s family, not even it’s own name…..

The sandy forest sprawls out in front of it, The trees seemingly marking a path. It can’t make out anything past the trees and leaves.

Okay @bunnymermaidsblog so here’s how “Show Yourself” from Frozen 2 fits Henry

First off, context for this song if it were about Henry is that he just came to the faerie realm.

(Putting the rest under a cut for everyone’s sanity xD)

Now let’s take a closer look to some lyrics…

“Something is familiar, like a dream I can reach but not quite hold […] I'm arriving and it feels like I am home”

When Henry leaves the village to go to the faerie realm, he’s nervous. He has never been there before, if you don’t count the literal day of his birth.

Yet instantly when he’s there, he feels like he’s finally at home. He feels familiarity and belonging. Which is strange to him and kinda hard to grasp, cause he’s never seen this place yet seems to know it.

The thing about fae is that they are very closely tied to their birthplace (the fae realm) and when they are away from it for too long, they start to miss it. They long for home, no matter how little time they spent in that realm.

“The woods are calling all of us home”, as Isleen warned Ranva once. And this is what Henry experienced, why he felt so out of place in the village and instantly feels a connection to the fae realm as he gets there.

Yet he can’t quite name this feeling, let alone understand it, thus his uncertainty.

“I have always been a fortress, cold secrets deep inside”

This one is simple. Henry had always carried the secret of what he was with him. With that he indirectly blocked out people he loved, mainly Aiden, because he didn’t share this secret with him.

“Show yourself, it's your turn. Are you the one I've been looking for all of my life?”

Now with “you” you could say Henry is addressing both the pull he felt that made him go to the fae realm as well as the decision he has made itself (you could say he’s waiting for the decision’s turn to prove him he made the right choice, if that makes sense)

(Maybe he’s also addressing Callan a bit, because if you look at it, Henry now has to fully rely on Callan cause he only has him left. So maybe he’s hoping for Callan to also show him that he made the right choice)

“I've never felt so certain, all my life I've been torn. But I'm here for a reason. Could it be the reason I was born?”

This is also very much Henry cause especially in his teen years he’d been torn between his loyalty to his family and his own desires.

Even at the point where he actually leaves he’s not sure if he made the right choice.

But then he comes to the fae realm and it just feels right. It feels like this is meant to be, he suddenly KNOWS that it’s meant to be, despite his doubts.

He also feels like he’s there for a reason, like him being there has a purpose and therefore simply had to be. He doesn’t know that purpose yet, but he knows it’s important (thus potentially “the reason he was born”)

“I have always been so different, normal rules did not apply. Is this the day […] I finally find out why?”

Here we have it again, a reference to Henry’s life in the village. Where he was loved, yes, but also obviously different. At least most people in the village would agree with that.

Henry hopes that now that he’s at the faerie realm, he will finally fully understand why he is different, will finally discover who he really is as a person.

Because his mother did tell him about being a fae, yes, but there’s still questions. Many questions.

Henry’s whole journey is a lot about getting to know himself, after all.

“I'm no longer trembling. Here I am, I've come so far […]”

Henry waited for answers all his life, especially ever since his mother died. And now he’s in the fae realm and he finally gets his answers, so he’s not afraid anymore.

The next few lines is Henry starting to get used to his new life and investigating, trying to open that door that has been closed for so long.

And then it finally opens and behind it, he finds his mother. And he finds himself.

“Come, my darling, homeward bound. I am found.”

This line is very touching to me (both in the movie but especially in the Henry context) because by going back to his roots, he finds who stood at the beginning of it all. His mother.

By getting to the fae realm (and cause of his research), he got closer to the mother he lost, too. And through her, he also starts finding and recognizing himself.

“Show yourself, step into the power. Grow yourself into something new. You are the one you've been waiting for all of your (my) life”

When Henry finally has found the answers, has found himself, he grows so much as a person. He realizes that all he ever searched for all his life was his true self.

And with that knowledge comes a new confidence within him that helps him a lot in his future.

He’s as sure of himself and his origin now as he’s ever been. And all that cause he took the leap and left his village.

See, there’s many things about this song that I love and that I think fit Henry:

The search for something you can’t name and finally getting close to finding it.

The reunion with your roots and yourself via the image of a mother, carved into memory.

And then finally, to find yourself and trust in yourself, because what you’ve been looking for was within you all along.

Finally understanding, finally finding the truth within you.

Am I overanalyzing this? Most likely, yes, but that’s what you came here for, right? Anyway I hope you like this 🙈

#is it evident that I love this song and that j love giving way too long explanations about Henry? xD #I hope this makes at least a little sense to anyone who isn’t me #this is such a big point about Henry’s character and his decision to leave #he never did this because of Callan he did it for himself and in hope it would help his family too #thus Henry telling Aiden that he didn’t choose Callan over Aiden. he chose himself #writer speaks #writeblr #wip: the knights of the alder
