@/gaytoadwithapopsicle . here is the word vomit about The Characters that ive been trying to concoct for like a Day .
okay so. paislie. to her grief is anger is hate is fundamentally being unlovable.
she's got four siblings who ranged from four to seven years old when she got taken by showfall, the oldest of whom she hallucinated dying in the single show she acted in. she thinks showfall has her siblings, and even if they don't and she escapes, she knows she'd have to go through hell and back to find them and get custody of them.
her partner when she was fourteen broke up with her after two months after she started working over the summer, and her second girlfriend broke up with her less than twenty hours before showfall took her. she's a cringefail loserboy and cannot win.
but going back to the point, by the time she's been in showfall for a few months at most, she's realized she doesn't have anything. no control, no way to fix her declining health, nobody to recognize the mass of grief that manifests itself in feral anger that gets her masked that gets her addicted to the numbness because not feeling anything is easier. she joins pacts and plans on her own outside of those because the sooner her lungs give out, the sooner she won't have to scream her throat hoarse every night grieving her son who was never born or wonder how her little sister is doing or imagine what life would be like if she'd just been allowed by fate to finish trade school and get the job she'd wanted for so long.
until cade. meeting cade was the turning point. meeting cade meant somebody loved her, gave her a purpose beyond building machines that enabled showfall to put people through hell thousands of times if they wanted to.
it meant just maybe, she could make the faintest attempt at repentance for the thousands of babies that hadn't even had names that she'd failed to save without even getting to see what they looked like.
and then the plans stopped coming constantly. she skipped one pact, then another a few weeks later.
and maybe, just maybe, she would rarely think now, if the one in a million chance came and her lungs didn't give out, maybe she'd see the sun again outside of her own head.

Evermore anon, I just reblogged @wavesoutbeingtossed’s brilliant posts of that exact theme! YES something about all of this and the weight of forever, the reality of a a future that forces a person to get truly philosophical about joining together two humans in such a final and intimate ceremony. That introspection can recomtextualize a lot of relationship stuff that maybe felt more symbolic or abstract until it’s Happening.

SPECIFIC LOVE LANG FT. SCARAMOUCHE AND THOMA mlist . tags: @ainnofinway
SCARAMOUCHE: helping his partner with their homework.
you and scaramouche, your boyfriend, were in the library seated near the sci-fi section in the archives. it's his auntie's library.
nahida was a very sweet lady and allowed you to even eat in her library. god bless her.
the purple haired male had a very much different work ethic than you do
he was straightforward to the point, his side of the table had stacks upon stacks of books. he always kept his gpa higher than a 3. you, on the other hand, had a good gpa but you struggle in certain topics that scaramouche exceeds at.
you were stuck on this question for like hours while scaramouche seemed to speed through the questions with no problem.
"psss, scaramouche," you whispered, poking his shoulder. but no prevail since scaramouche was surrounded by books piled on books. should you try to knock down his book wall right now? nah, making too loud noises for auntie nahida would hurt you.
hearing his chair being adjusted as scaramouche plucked out the buds out of his ears, music softly playing out of device. "yes?"
"can you please help me on number 21 on assignment 60 from mr. cyrus?"
without missing a beat, he replied back, "ok." as he broke down his walls of books, the physical wall between you two disappeared, grabbing an extra paper. "so, for this equation, you have to use the quadratic formula, x equals to negative b plus or minus square root of b squared subtract 4ac divided by 2a." glancing back to you, he noticed that you're spacing out. "hey."
snapping his fingers, your eyes jolt back awake. he was leaning on one of his hands while you groggily wake up from your day dream. he asked, "are you listening?"
frantically trying to separate reality and dreams from each other, you blurted, "um... yep!" despite the both of you knowing that you were lying, scaramouche knew how to get back at you.
"repeat back what i just said."
ok, mr. cyrus.... math equation. formulas? something with quadratics and the moment scaramouche's soothing voice started to say "x", you were in snoozing land. again, without thinking it through, you replied quickly with "a math equation!"
he chuckled, either at you or at himself, "okay, if you pay attention this time, i'll buy you boba."
he said the magic word, "boba." as if your mind activated your thinking gears, getting free boba plus scaramouche paying equals to boba date with scaramouche. "yes, sir! anything you want me to heed your orders, sir." you joked as scaramouche rolled his eyes.
"alright, solider, it's time to listen."
"yes sir!"

THOMA: making your partner their favorite meal.
it was a long day after you and your boyfriend had finished your finals
but history with ms xianyun was terrible not to mention your partners for the class sucked just as equally
itto kept being off task and xiangling was occupied writing other things
and xianyun grades brutally
thoma opened the door of your shared apartment as you were complaining about your recent final in ms xianyun's class.“im so glad that she curves her tests. if she didn’t, i’d be over.” walking to the couch, immediately, you slumped into it, digging your face into the pillow.
thoma patted your legs, in which you moved them aside and making room for your boyfriend, sitting upright. thoma glanced at you, noticing your sour mood and knowing you well enough to know you need the meal to make you feel better. "thomaa." dragging out the syllables of his name. "it's so joever for me."
he tried to comfort you, "if you email ms xianyun about the group, i think it would just decrease their grades."
"you're right...." you looked at his face as it's making the "aren't i always." "okay, thoma."
he chuckled, “would it make you feel better if i made [fav food]?” your eyes lit up in an instant, following thoma into the kitchen

I personally am so happy that the episode was all a dream because I’m okay with there not being macdennis but if they had confirmed Dennis as a killer i would have been devastated. I do wish they’d explore more of his emotions tho- especially since Glenn has said he misses playing those colors. Like he’s got Big Feelings! This was more of his rage- but it’s a step up that he was able to curb that rage I guess?
Also people are saying it’s joever for macdennis but like… they didn’t fight or anything right? They’re still super close- and remember Frank vs Russia? That’s still a thing
Disclaimer I’ve just been seeing people’s post about it I haven’t watched this ep but I do wish it wasn’t the finale or they’d at least end it with a scene of the gang together

Here’s my take, if you don’t mind my sharing it. It’s not that I’m looking to strip TGW of its original meaning. It’s that when it came out, I was like, “okay. Another song where Taylor is entirely at fault.” That’s not to say it’s a bad song, but that the theme is everywhere - Afterglow, peace, TGW, even Anti-Hero if you think about it all depicted Joe as this perfect figure who had to put up with Taylor’s many problems. It bothered me then and it bothers me now. That’s not to say TGW isn’t telling the truth, but that I wonder if there’s more to the story. A war takes two people. And I do think “maybe it was her” is probably the only time in her discography pre-YLM that she’s ever been like “maybe you did something too” about Joe. The rest of the song is about how he wanted her to trust him, how he was broken and blue, looking at her with honor and truth, and how she nearly lost him because of her poison.
Idk, maybe it’s just because I was never particularly interested in Joe so I found it to be missing some part of the story from the beginning. And we won’t know anything for sure until TTPD. But I don’t think questioning its larger narrative, narrated by someone very much unreliable due to her bias against herself and toward him, especially after Joever, is necessarily rewriting it or an attempt to ruin it.
No this is fair. And I do get how it would be a bit difficult to swallow that Joe was never really considered the villain in any of these songs. Obviously it takes two for a relationship to have friction and she obviously rewrote things in her head to blame herself a lot.
I think my thing is that like. A lot of Taylor's writing abt that relationship has been about her struggle with paranoia. And for a LOT of people (I don't know if you posted abt TGW or anything recently but if so I promise my post wasn't an indirect just ftr) it seems like Joever negates this character trait of hers in some way, because oh! She was right! Something was wrong!
And maybe that is the case, and we won't know more until TTPD, but like... as someone w BPD (here's where the personal bias kicks in), Taylor's openness about her paranoia and flight risk tendencies has been one of the things I've connected to the most over the years. So I guess it's a bit off putting to see some of the suggestions that this is suddenly not something that's genuinely a flaw of hers that she grapples with, and that it was just her lying to herself all along, because it's sort of like... first off painting paranoia/jealousy issues that she portrayed herself as working on getting over as something to demonize, ig? That's a specific tone I've only seen in a couple of posts/other people's asks though, not a broad thing. But then it also feels like it negates the idea that she may have been honest about dealing with this in herself, and it feels like people are just too eager to jump on that train.
I do like what Jaime said sometime in the last 24 hours abt it being something she genuinely dealt with that was then weaponized against her, though. And I think it's possible a more nuanced take is in order where she does deal with this, but it was made to feel like this horrible aspect of her instead of a problem they could face together, or he used it against her to paint her as overreacting when she DID see problems for what they were, or... any number of things, honestly. We can't know for sure yet! I'm just not so quick to jump on the train that she's never been afraid and wrong before, which is the tone I do see a lot of.

I don’t think T/J could’ve worked without Kimye tho because if she didn’t want to run away, he couldn’t have done a “normal” celeb coupling with her at that stage in his career. He would’ve been another Dougie, maybe even less of one because they might not have ever been spotted together.
You think so? I think we would have to know how much Taylor liked Dougie, cause that didn't seem to last long right? And with Joe, she seemed to be quite obsessed with him in the beginning. Even with all the mess in her life then, they couldn't just stay casual. And Taylor seemed to hesitate a lot because of that. So if that wasn't a problem, would they have managed to just stay casual fuck buddies or it would still lead to a relationship anyway? Maybe it would just last less I suppose, cause she wouldn't have ran to London like you say. Maybe like she says on Glitch, they would see each other when both were in town and text in the meanwhile until both found someone else that is. Given the OG timeline though, I still wonder if she would have been ok with "sharing" him if that was that case.
Maybe with or without 2016 they would always end up in a relationship one way or another, but given core personality differences and values it would never be endgame anyway
Now, I know Taylor believes in all the destiny and soulmate thing but there's different types of soulmates. You can have more than one. Not all of them are love interests and not all of them are meant to stay in your life forever. I think that's the case here, they had to meet cause they had lessons to learn with each other and when those lessons were learned they couldn't work anymore
Dougie was around for a good few months. They got together(ish) in November 2013, his camp announced they weren’t together anymore in January 2014 (basically saying a PR friendly version of Matty’s unhinged emasculated by her thing like basically they said “our boy Dougie went on some dates but decided he just wants to be friends with her”) and then in March they were spotted on a date at a Fun. concert (sitting with just Lena who was at that point with Jack) and I think they were seen again in April but I can’t remember where and I’m lazy rn. Obviously not the grandest love story of our time but 6 months with half of it seemingly hidden on purpose is really not a total nothing either like Tom Odell.
Taylor was obviously smitten with Joe from when they met but she also didn’t do terribly much about it (unless they did hook up around April 29th which like idk I sorta feel like they might’ve based on the vibes I get from the song) until after Tom and Taylor gets smitten all the time (see: Enchanted). Joe was well on his way to being a Dougie but then imo he offered what she wanted post Kimye - so a normal life - and he hadn’t lived much of an abnormal life so that seemed cool to him because he liked her and then it worked for a while but they had their share of problems (because everyone does) and they didn’t work on theirs enough and then she blew up fame wise all over again but bigger than ever (or anyone ever tbh lol) and wanted the positive attention she was getting and he was like “this wasn’t the plan??” and it sucked a lot and she felt trapped and stuck and he was distant and she reconnected with Matty and eventually we got to Joever lol.
with different timing, I don’t think they’d have gotten to 6.5 years. And the only way imo they could’ve worked forever is if 1) they sorted at least some of their problems out 2) if Taylor had indeed started to fade post Lover like she’d expected and transitioned into indie but traditional indie not Swiftie Indie like now.

msq lines about captain & loki's journeys i was supposed to post a billion yrs ago but only went to grab now :D yippe(through tears)
Loki: There is no beginning without an end. In other words, to begin means that the ending draws ever nearer. You know, I'm kind of relieved. Relieved to know that my journey's coming to an end. Fenrir: No way are you okay with that… Whaddya mean the journey's gonna end! Just like you decided when to start, you get to decide when to end it! Because it sure as hell ain't much of a "journey" if you're just letting yourself get swept up every which way!
Katalina: Whatever happens to the world now, you're no doubt going to continue playing a large role in it. But regardless of that, I'd like for you to continue your journey. Ever since I took you out of Zinkenstill, it's the one thing I've always wished you could focus more on. Instead of having to respond to the world's every whim, maybe consider your own journey sometimes…
when they started having loki wishing to see what captain&his brother saw i nvr thought we'd end up Here. loki definitely always has just been going around for the ride, taking the emperor spot he said he did cuz he wanted to annoy freesia (long theory about him grieving his brother also played a part), pushing the crew to nalhegrande seemed implied to be something true king wanted (even though in that line he's nooot happy theyre separated. i rly do think loki had plans for it, even tho theyve still havent gone into loki & true king's prior meetings). i feel wanting mikaboshi freed from the great wall is like one of the few times he Rly went for it. either way (ill get into these things more some other time), loki who wished to see the scenery others saw and struggling to look forward, getting a ship, getting members for a crew, and then..........? oarlyegrande was probably the worst time for it anyway knowing what goes on, but.....
lokis journey vs captains journey, who goes from fighting freesia to avoid the world being rewritten, to fighting true kings plans to avoid the great wall falling into his hands, to joining a rebellion in oarlyegrande against true king (who also was revealed to have attacked zinkenstill and kidnapped their aunt in the past), to fighting the otherworld cuz if they dont its joever......
?
'consider your own journey sometimes'
god
guy who doesnt know what he wants & guy who cant say no to the world. also both guys who has stated they'd go against fate itself to get their will through (loki when talking to the astral at edgelands, captain when meeting bahamut when almost dying again due to lyria being far away (in the otherworld))
Violet Knight: So I'm truly grateful that you fight for the sake of the skies. On the other hand, you've gained too much influence. It's not a good idea to entrust the peace of the Sky Realms to a single pair of hands. Even if you could do it, doesn't mean you should.
goes hand-in-hand with this. as well as the yuni&cosmos anni about captain's role as the singularity. (not to mention the fact msq timeline captain uhhhhh. yknow! with how it ended! where do i even start!). but also violet knight saying this when true king is singlehandedly trying to save the skies too......shoves the role onto captain so he can do stuff from the sidelines cuz otherworld inference in our timeline......
Violet Knight: You say that now, but how far would you go to save a friend? I have to wonder where you draw the line. Let's say—and I'm speaking hypothetically here—sacrifices have to be made in order to save you friends. What would you do? what if those sacrifices included me and my family? Rosetta: Well— Violet Knight: You see? No hesitation at all. Look, you're more than welcome to put your priorities first. If we swapped places and I had to choose, I'd throw you to the wolves. That's the beauty of power: choice. The right to choose what to protect and what to reject. The world is your oyster. Second-rate folks get the opposite treatment. They don't even get the chance to choose. Not out of maliciousness, mind you. That's just how it goes. Makes you nervous when I put it that way, doesn't it? It's not a novel concept, nor is it strictly limited to physical power.
haha. hehe. hahahahahah... freesia who we fought so she couldnt rewrite history using akasha. we who are about to try to revive what the otherworld killed. (noa voice) well theres the fizzure in the sky and thats not normal and we should fix that anyway so
i forgot he spoke about 'how far would u go to save a friend' im gonna combust. i was thinking a lot about that one line in maquia too....'why didnt time stop for you'. the way they make a point to show every island suffered but its citizens are doing its best to keep going. cain whos grieving leona and reinhardtzar. vira whos grieving katalina. captain, lyria and vyrn who cant seem to move forward. im glad they didnt show us tzaka reacting to io (assuming tzakas alive), cuz that would have broken me. like it haunts me cuz theyre always trying sooo hard to keep going, but after losing the crew (and i fear for everyone who has not been shown onscreen) and having to grieve this many ppl, to the point where captain loses sight of estalucia too??? man.
i think its fine for us to go try to undo all the damage the otherworld did, one timeline is completely destroyed anyway. everyone died there too. captain died there. but thinking about how its shifting too 'lets go to estalucia cuz theres rumor it can grant wishes' and how estalucia & the boundary....... as well as how og god is there...... i have sooo many thoughts about it. like i appreciate noa trying to steer it in the 'we need to get rid of the crack in the sky the otherworld created' direction but we r going there to revive ppl. cuz we dont want to move on. im going to combust pt2. im enjoying myself sm its unreal

I’m just… waiting to see what happens.
Rina was apparently close friends with Charli so like… if Charli for whatever reason unfollows Matty, or starts shading him… that’s a huge red flag to me. Same with Beabadoobee and all the other female artists in his circle or in DH.
If he doesn’t release a public statement, then the reaction of his friends and colleagues is the most telling thing. If everyone takes her side, it’s joever I’m afraid. If everyone takes his side… then maybe she’s been unreasonable behind the scenes
And if nobody does anything… then idek what’s going on. Because what she said was serious. She was brutal. If I were Matty and I heard that when I was in the audience, I’d fucking run. And then spend all day trying not to having a panic attack in the bathroom or something.
charli is also close friends with matty tho so i feel like if she had to shade/unfollow him over this, it would have already happened. clearly the thing with rina hasn't happened overnight and it's been festering for months if not more.
you're absolutely right about everything else and i'm genuinely anxious over the aftermath
at the same time, i hope matty's okay. he brought this on himself but i won't want him having panic attacks over this either

so when we sat on the couch i told her that i had a powerpoint presentation for her about taylor’s life in 2023 and she said “is this really necessary? did it change that much?”, we had to have a break cause’ i couldn’t stop laughing. and then i told her to not get mad at me we were all just doing an experiment to see how much she believes anything people tell her and how bad that is (she was mad by the ending and we are now frenemies). when i started with the eras she was like “i know that😒” and i was like ok miss girl you know everything right. then when i passed to the next slide (joever) she was paralyzed and i thought it was better to give her a time to process it. the first thing that came out of her mouth was “so so long, london is not about harry??”. i explained her the reasons on why they broke up and she was like “yeah well i always saw him that way but i thought taylor didn’t mind” (she never liked him). then there was the people in denial which she said it was obvious they would be. the butterfly jeans pics that i showed her and she’s now very interested in buying them and the great unfollowing that she was gagged that ryan unfollowed him. now here’s where she almost had a break down, the matty healy rumors. she said “WHAT? no way. thank god it were just rumors, can you imagine?”. and well the next slide… she screamed so loud i think almost got fined. she was screaming at me for most of the time till she said “tell me they are not together right now” and i was messing around saying that i don’t know but eventually said no they are not but there’s other things we  should get to. i showed her the he lets her bejeweled and (i think i forgot to add this in my first ask) the i love you, you know who you are of it all. finally i said that after 3 weeks they broke up and she asked me why it ended (thank go it did) and how she feels towards him. and that’s why she’s coming here tomorrow for a taylore part 2!!!
oh my GOD well i see why she's mad but you guys seem like an unserious bunch so i think she'll get over it soon enough, her wanting to buy the butterfly jeans is so laskdjf like yes that was all of us in april 2023, and yay she's coming over tomorrow for a killatrav special. this seems like it went relatively well considering the situation, and i think it'll be ok since she didn't like joe that much anyway
also it made me realize that all of our jokes that are like "imagine telling yourself in 2023 _____" are being realized here hdjhdjdhjd

At 1 Followers I Buy Cruise Chaser
I fucked up. I fucked up big time. It's so over. I made the biggest fucky wucky I could've we're so done chat. This is gonna turn into a fucking FFXIV blog now and I'm gonna have to replace all of my insane venting with insane blue mage spiels (get it cuz, cuz it kinda sounds like "blue mage spells" see see I'm smart I'm good at wording)
Why is Cruise Chaser $30?
I fucking took a hiatus for like over a year and now I got fucking roped back in by like 500 things all at once psychically sending messages into my head that said "oooh you want to die play mmos again ooooh you want to krill yourshellf put 1000 more hours into ffxiv again so bad ooooh" and they fucking worked, first Tetris and now this shit it's so joever. I can stop it before it gets too bad this time tho, none of my friends play XIV anymore and/or I don't talk to the ones that still do now I can't possibly put 10,000 hours into an MMO while doing only solo content that would be ridiculous (I can, I 100% can, very easily in fact and have done so before).
Like if it were like $15 instead that would still be ridiculous but it would be like ridiculous within reason enough that I'd be able to convince myself it's maybe worth it but not $30
Tumblr media
AND WHY THE FUCK DID I IMMEDIATELY DECIDE TO PUT ALL OF MY PLAYTIME RIGHT AFTER COMING BACK INTO FUCKING BLUE MAGE LEVELLING I LITERALLY HATE BLUE MAGE LEVELLING AM I FUCKING STUPID I love making conscious decisions to do things that I don't enjoy and knowingly make my life worse it's honestly kinda one of my top hobbies.
What if I stopped now before it fully digs it's claws back into me and instead did something productive, like reading the bible, or reading the christianity fandom wiki, or reading eroguro visual novels, or reading 1 star app reviews of the bible, or transitioning.
Why'd they have to announce a painter class, like they can't just do that it's unfair, it's gonna play exactly like every other magic dps but like, conceptually it's so cool, the vibes the vibes!! it's so gonna be busy doing less overall dps than the tank too like you just know it will

OH MY FUCKING GODDDDddddD it’s so joever hhhhoooo ok speedrun the other stuff bc this is gonna be longg: fuck the blond man ok whatever he’s dead fuck BJ he’s dead whatever Rosemary can go live her best life somewhere away from evil husbands girl idcccc. the laughing ceremony was v cute finally some happiness. The guy they casted to be Joe’s dad is like a top 10 casting choice of all time go casting director. and Gordo is still a funny son of a bitch love him.
Ok here we go🫡
Chee going to say goodbye in uniform (yay!!!) too and saying how good she was at her jobbb and the HAND SIZE COMPARISON like hell yeah peak high school crushing behavior!!! and the kiss/ mini make out sessionnn like girl was that not enough to convince you to stay either????? like ok you’re stronger than me ig😵‍💫 And let’s be fr rn let’s not pretend like he didn’t think about rejoining the police just so he could be around you, in hopes you would stay. Like I knowwww he says it’s bc she left the force and Joe could use a hand but come onnn. And the shot of them leaving in different directions like ok I’ll go die in a ditch now got it thanks!
Ok the fucking Joe and Bern scene god🫠here we go🥹I was already feeling emotional bc of the hug but literally as soon as Joe called Bern his DAUGHTER it was so fucking over for me tears running down my face LMAO. Like if that happened to me i would unpack my shit right away sorry for even applying for the job in the first place. I know from actor interviews and whatever that Zahn and Jessica see their characters relationship as father-daughter, but to HEAR IT??! In the episode??!!??? Literally said, “oh my fucking god it’s so over” to my TV screen dkkdndhsjak. Also,,,, Joe just lost another child (luckily not to death this time!) and he couldn’t do anything about it, and what if he feels guilty by inadvertently pushing her to leave even more by killing Vines. What then???? i’m gonna lose itttt. And If anyone ever confirms he was trying to say “I love you” or “I’ll miss you” to her or smth at the end of his “Daughter, I-” before getting cut off by Bern saying “I know” I will actually be in that persons walls. When is it his turn to be happy! They didn’t even show a proper goodbye btwn them either and you KNOW they had one bc he would have had to have given her the feather at some point (SOBs) like if you’re gonna make a sad ending make it as heart wrenching as possible at least give us all the sad and crying and hugs gOD😭😭.
And not to mention, her whole talk with Joe about how she was in denial about how the world works didn’t convince me she needs to leave?? If anything the opposite?? maybe there is a nuanced way to show her on the job doing good on border patrol and being treated well but idk🫥. Like you said, I feel it would come across as super booklicker-y. And yeah she works BP in the books but does she really have to in the show? (I’m coping here) Maybe they could do a commentary on the border and how her working as a native woman there would have been. And then bring her back somehow? I don’t want her to come back fully defeated but at the same time I also don’t want the show to undo her development in gaining the courage to try to find her way on her own…. But get your ass back to the rez rn lmao I’m not joking around xoxo I am the director, lead writer and EP now haha
IMO this whole will she won’t she thing really feels like the writers were trying to have this big overarching decision with a super emotional ending (since Joe’s arc ended pretty suddenly with Blondie dying and him making Vines march into the desert on a whim), and while it was emotional it just didn’t make sense. Like it didn’t make sense before but it’s worse now😭. And obviously they want to move Bern’s character towards the books ig, but why? Why now after 2 seasons. Especially when Joe and Jim aren’t going anywhere and have their own books to go off of too. Like does she get some side border patrol plot every season now? Do they make the most unlikely circumstances where she can go help Jim and Joe? Do they try and adapt multiple books simultaneously despite them most likely not having much interconnectedness? I don’t know. They had such a good thing going with incorporating her character into the Tony Hillerman books as a TRIBAL police officer. And it’s like they wanted her to have this choice to make that’s really influenced by her surroundings and experiences, but in the show you don’t get any of that. Everything she goes through feels so contradictory to her decision. She’s finally back on good grounds with Jim, ok time to leave. Joe is off the walls but also being more of a Dad to her than ever, oh he’ll be fine he can handle it (can he tho). I promised Dean I’d look after his family? And I was an inspiration to him helping people on the rez? Nvm!!
That’s a *very* overdramatic and overgeneralized explanation of it but you get it I hope. Even her comment about not being able to do anything about Vines makes zero sense to me because does she think border patrol would let her fucking execute him for what he did??? Or that border patrol would lock him in a pit with no communication so he can’t get off on bail😭??. Originally watching I legitimately thought that this was the shows way of completely removing Bernadette from the story bc Jessica was done with the role, but that’s confirmed by the director to be not true. (silver lining yay!)
I have faith in the writers to do a good job with Bernadette’s character but I’m selfish and just want my silly tribal police trio back together asap!! They did not have the best little I-would-kill-for-you/ hyper-competent-coworkers/ found-family dynamic the three whole seconds they were all on screen together for them to kick Bern out!! Anyway, bring on season 3 AMC renew it already I am outside your office with a pitchfork!
(Also, its been super fun getting to rant in extremely long asks to you this season about this show, so thank you for the space to do that! Dark Winds def has its ups and downs but I love it so much and hopefully we get many seasons to come!)
apologies for such a late reply </3 i've been mostly on mobile and i wanted to give this ask my undivided, desktop attention since there is so much to chew and munch on here MWAHHH ^_^ thank u for your patience <33
what a solid season finale that felt like closure but also made me want to chew on drywall bc jimbern nation won but at what COST....crunching the numbers and doing the math we have GOT to get them back on the menu it's the most in demand at the restaurant. the hand comparison scene carried more romance than anything made in the past century like i am being sooooo serious that scene made me MELT and tear upwith a smile on my face like woaghhhh......love is REAL and i am witnessing it firsthand. ngl, sorry to bern but i would've sttayed for jim i am not like other girls sorry feminism :/ AHHHHHHHHH I DIDN'T CONSIDER THOSE IMPLICATIONS I AM PUNCHING THE AIR AGAIN NAURRRRRR.....he literally came back for her....she made him believe in himself again....don't look at me i'm processing my grief :( the parting of ways did make me cry i shan't lie it was teww much they pulled that rug from right under us and you expect us to be normal about it? girl!!!
that daughter mention made me FREEZE like i nearly dropped my shit bc omfgggggg that's my FAMILY. i'm still trying to wrap my head around why bern would apply for another job outside of the reservation like, she talks about it but to me it's just....it's not compelling? LIKE not to undermine her but couldn't she make changes in the job she's in as well?? does she not know what the border patrol does..........do you tell her or should i? goshhh, why do people keep leaving joe this is UNFAIR. not to play this card but if we didn't get a heart wrenching farewell from one of the most important people in her life, then this is how bern can still return in season 3...HELPPP don't make me fall into that rabbit hole. you are so right, like, she is such a well beloved character so if you're going to send off one of the main protags of your show, you send them OFF y'know?? unless you're like...supernatural....WELL,
thank you for picking up that other topic i slightly touched up above. it just...doesn't make sense at all. if the writers are trying to reason themselves on how to get rid of her, this is simply not it </3 never read the books but damn, can't believe she's still a class traitor after this time. then again, what did we expect from a copaganda show? nuance? you are soooo fucking hired we don't need a resume nor cv you take over at the amc studios. you fundamentally understand the complexities of bern and are able to support reasons on how her story can still add richness to the main storyline. writing her off completely would be a huge disservice to her character like if we don't even get updates throughout s3 or any mention of her journey,,,,,someone will have 2 answer to us. i really want them to continue following bern and i am getting scared that it's a possibility that they're now going to just focus on jim and joe. don't get me wrong, i love those guys but like....i also really love bern c'mon sign my petition everyone.
shows that deviate from the original story's plots can either make or break that show. i understand that they only have a short season with 45 minute episodes but that's when you make every single second count. every decision about how a character develops is a make or break thing with these types of shows. when they made bern leave the reservation, it feels empty. what for? if she has so much to do there? why now? when everything seems to align for the better? that's something that i probably can't really get past. jessica girl stand UP for bern you give her the voice and you can continue to protect it !!! i know it can be beyond their reach but a girl can only dream...hmmm...gosh, could you imagine if we got the trio back in action again? OHHHH i would start licking walls and jumping up and down. i really hope this wasn't like the final end to bern since there are a lot of shows that write off great characters like they meant nothing to anyone. the news of a confirmed s3 has my heart aflutter but also praying the rosary omfgggg i really do hope it's a sexy as hell season. and you are SOOO welcome :) this space is ALWAYS open to talking, venting, ranting, and babbling about anything, babe like i am here on the couch listening intently and watching every single hand movement and head nod. can't wait to do this again when the new season drops....yes, i do think we will all still be on this web sight in 2024 and 2025....,

Saw a comment on tt said they knew someone in London abt changing locks after tay+joe breakup. Apparently it was messy ((plss take this with a grain of salt)). If it’s true, I feel like Joe didn’t expect taylor to dump him while she’s in another part of the world rehearsing for Eras tour at that time and joe probably thought everything was normal and probably thinking of going the home they shared together in London.
yeah I mean idk who knows and I haven’t heard that at all but I did hear from someone who has mutuals with him that he didn’t expect it to go down that way. I’d actually asked this person about the weird email rumor and that person said they’ve never heard of that ever in their whole life and also asked why anyone would think that and I had to be like “oh because supposedly someone who knows Pat said so on the internet” and they were like “wut” and I was like “yeah you’re right weird rumor lol I did know this but I wanted to ask because it’d have been funny if true”. But they did say as far as they know Joe didn’t expect it and also that he was doing okay and this convo + the vibes I see is what I base my take on Joever on which is she broke up with him and he wouldn’t have done that but he was lowkey relieved it happened.

Adding on to what you said about Travis, he’s also fully there. Like Joever was likely a long time coming and they were both unhappy for a while and he was distant. Travis is like a puppy running to the door as soon as he hears her key in it. He’s seemingly not intimidated by her fame and fist pumped when he was called ‘Taylor’s boyfriend’ in a crowd lol. He’s chill but he’s passionate about stuff and cries a lot - his own words. He gets emotional when he sees his nieces on his podcast. He 100% cried the first time they “made love” instead of just sex (a totally normal phenomenon and ruled by hormones, but it takes a certain type to tap into that). He’s actually a lot like Tom as far as emotional intelligence, seems like a genuinely nice guy, and has people pleasing tendencies. But she’s in a much better place now. She’s coming off the joever breakup, but she’s clearly done work on herself mentally.
I think not feeling like a monster on a hill and being so fully wanted after a distant partner would be so inspiring and validating for her. And even if it wasn’t ~serious~ they’re having fun! She’s fitting in with his friends and their friends/ WAGs, she’s smashing on the windows at a football game and chest bumping people. She’s having fun and it’s so damn cute to see! Haha
right. I think Travis combines a lot of the good things about a number of her partners (emotional intelligence, genuine interest in her - which Joe def had at first but obviously not at the end, humor, a deep love for his family, ambition, a genuine interest in both serious things in the world and pop culture) while not having a lot of the bad (he’s spoken about his own mental health issues - which she clearly relates to - but he’s not imo especially broody like the Brit boys and Jake were, he dgaf what people say and not in a “I just won’t go online” way in like a “ok u asked me an embarrassing question and I’m not gonna answer it lol so let’s move along”, I also think he likes the silly songs more than most her exes did/would because he really earnestly likes them and not because he thinks the sun shines out her ass because he’s banging her like because silly things make him happy, he has a very predictable schedule unlike all the artsy boys did, and bonus is he and Scott would have a lot more to talk about lol than the artsy boys did like Scott did like her exes but I think he’s having to try less hard with Travis and that’s also nice and lol Travis is the one ex that Scott would want to be called Scott by instead of “sir” 😂).
Idk. It’s very early days but they’ve fallen hard and fast for one another and that’s awesome to see. It absolutely might not work out - there is no way to predict the future - and they could both get over this level of scrutiny and Travis is a pro athlete with a history of cheating (and Taylor also has a history of cheating) so one or both might cheat but like idk why we’d focus on the possibilities of things not working when they seem super happy. They’re having fun right now. It’s obvi not as deep as like Calvin or Joe or Travis’s 5 year relationship but that’s because it’s just started. Let them have fun lol.

joever happened months before she met travis and had likely been brewing for a year and a half. she was insanely prolific during this time period. she was spending 10 hour days in the studio three times a week. I really don’t think she’ll scrap all that material because she’s with a new guy lmao like imo that’s highly implausible. I do think we’ll get a lot of love songs but she’s in a very different place in her life than she was when she wrote rep. the slow end of a relationship she thought would end in marriage, as well as the fact that she yk survived it and turned out okay, is going to affect her for a long time. maybe she will fictionalize it - the betty speeches over the summer showed that she was really thinking about the merits of writing highly autobiographical music vs more fictionalized narratives - but it will definitely be all over the album.
right it’s obviously gonna affect her but imo we won’t see the original songs and are likelier to see fictionalized or deeply metaphorical versions of events because yes Trav’s feelings matter and like a belty YLM 2.0 or more Hits Different versions wouldn’t be nice to hear in the mall when you’ve just started seeing a girl idk. That’s not insecurity. You can vibe to like a real past feeling but when that feeling happened 6 months before y’all met you’ll be a bit 👀
another story time - guys I just came home from dinner I’m tipsy and my partner is asleep bc it was a girls’ dinner to complain about him but I defended him bc of all you guys said - when my partner and I moved in together he said I have free reign to tidy (as I said, he doesn’t like people touching his stuff) and he would like me to because he’s busy with work and like other shit and I said cool and I found a letter - while going through a pile of crap that I was tidying so I wasn’t snooping - from the girl he’d been seeing just before me which was deeply unhinged and like 2 pages long asking to get back together and the dates on when she sent that are fuzzy so like maybe it’s when he and I were friends or casual or very possibly just before we met because I met him after he had broken up with her and besties don’t ever send letters like that if you’re a grown woman because I was genuinely embarrassed for her as I read it. And yes I snooped when I read but come on lol you’ve met me metaphorically and this was spicy and not an invoice or a paycheck or a traffic fine which is what I was sorting the pile of crap into.
But then she became like a bigger thing for us than his ex-wife or any of my exes lol. Like she messaged him and it bothered me. If his ex-wife called him I’d be like “lol tell me what this lady says” and if 2 page lady called I’d want her on speaker. I don’t think it’s insecurity because I know he doesn’t want anything to do with her but I read 2 pages of her extolling his virtues and I was like “I don’t even like him or for that matter anyone that much girl ur tripping balls” and that’s why I’m saying don’t read stuff about the recent ex because it will possibly bother you 😂😂
like the feminist in me was like “queen get off your knees” but the me that’s living with this man was like “get the fuck out his business” 🤷🏻‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️

I believe mbobhft to be a Joe song bc of the lyric “told me I’m better off” because I feel like matty would definitely not said something like that to her and it doesn’t seem like he gave her that (or any) type of closure at the end of their rs. If her and Joe both left the rs amicably bc they both knew it wasn’t working anymore and he knew his mental health wasn’t allowing him to be present I can fully imagine him saying she’s better off without him when they broke up
right, to me that song does have more of a joever vibe.
