dont tell your parents you want to move out and be independent because then they'll say shit like "but you're always going to have a roommate so why bother trying to live on your own" and "im sorry you hate us so much that you want to move out" and "you could just be independent living here if youd do what we tell you to do" and imply that anyone that agrees with me is an idiot who just hates them for no reason. the cool thing is theyll say this and then go watch their stupid comedy right after like nothing happened

also like this coming explicitly after smot ("kon discovers he's being selfish and immature and needs to grow up!") and directly refering smot and then going "kon is being selfish and immature and needs to grow up" is so fucking stupid. like. oh my god. i know yall at dc aren't literate given that you can neither read nor fucking write, and don't know what to do with most characters in general bc none of you passed like 5th grade english i guess, but jesus fucking CHRIST. come up with a new narrative idea for him. this one has been done at LEAST 50 times by now like "kon needs to grow up" as a plotline happened PLENTY in sb94 itself (not that yall can read, i understand, but still). christ on a goddamn bike.

I see dark tones, dark clothes, closed curtains. I see drama here. can we imagine that this will be a reverse concept, and the more Day loses his sight and gets closer to Mork, the more light tones will appear in their lives? unearthly theories are our everything. Besides, I've already appreciated Sea's blank stare. Do you have any thoughts on this, Monica?
YOU’VE ALREADY PRETTY MUCH SAID EVERYTHING IM THINKING TBH
i wasn’t too certain about it yesterday since we only had those monitor pictures to base ourselves on, but after they dropped the official ones today I’D BE READY TO BET ALL THE MONEY IN MY BANK ACCOUNT THAT WE’RE GONNA HAVE A COMPLEMENTARY AND TRANSITIONAL COLOR SCHEMES IN THE SHOW AND IF THAT ACTUALLY HAPPENS IM AFRAID THERE’S NOT ENOUGH THERAPY IN THE WORLD THAT’S GONNA MAKE ME NORMAL AGAIN
just look at the difference between the colors of day’s room in the mock trailer and in the official picture we got today:
in the mock trailer day is surrounded by light since the very beginning: even if the vertical and horizontal lines given by the shutters create a sense of imprisonement, the yellows and oranges ultimately give a feeling of warmth and openness. next to that, the complete tonal shift in the official pic is striking: day’s world is now full of blues and darkness, creating a sense of coldness and isolation. i know a lot of people are already missing the original color palette, but colors tell a story, they can set the tone of a scene, represent the characters’ emotions and show changes in the narrative. it’s also interesting to notice that, while the hue is primary blue now, the yellows and oranges aren’t completely gone, but they’re very desaturated
orange and blue are actually complementary colors: they’re on the opposite sides of the color wheel and this is often used to show internal or external conflict. in this case, orange is the world outside, bright and full of life that, however, is getting muted by the coldness of the blue, of a house that now really both looks and feels like a prison
this isn’t gonna last forever though. both mork and day start the show in a very bad place: albeit in different ways, they both have isolated themselves from the world and no longer have faith in the future. they are, however, very different people coming from different social classes, which is bound to create some initial conflict between them. we already know from the mock trailer that they won’t get along right away and the colors are now showing us that as well, but as they spend more time together, as they get closer, as both their relationship and themselves start to change, the more i believe the colors surrounding them will change as well: the blues and the grays are gonna give way to the oranges and the yellows, and they’re all gonna get brighter, more vibrant
in the end, like you said, day’s sight is gonna be swallowed by darkness, but day himself is gonna be surrounded by light and happiness and warmth

what do you think yaz stopped herself from saying in revolution when she goes "i never stopped to think-"?
bc i think yaz always knew that time with the doctor was like, finite. i think she went into it knowing. she goes into it with "i want more", she knows it will end, she just wants a little bit longer. same in revolution "im not ready to let you go yet". she knows she will have to one day, just not yet, not just yet. i think she felt the clock from the start as much as the doctor always must feel the clock with companions. you meet them and time starts ticking until you lose them. it's a doctor thing to feel, so i think yaz felt it too.
and she knew travelling was dangerous, and she knew people died, but i think maybe she hadnt anticipated that it might be the doctor that would be the one to die? theres something indestructible about them. i mean theyre bouncy. 13 throws herself between the fam and danger from the very first night as if she cant be injured. even when she sort of visibly is.
like theres a lot of things yaz might have been thinking and i dont know if this is the option that makes the most sense, like she might have thought they'd get to say goodbye at least, or she'd get the choice at least, a last trip, anything, that it wouldnt be so abrupt. but i feel like with how power of the doctor ended, with like 13 sort of having to submit to her mortality, and yaz first saving her from it and then having to watch as her body like shows the actual physical signs of what amounts to death in both of their eyes, AND maybe also the fact that 13 doesnt deny it most of all. like theres no pretending it's just you know what this means we both know what this means we stop pretending now, like. All Of That being how it ends. i feel like maybe yaz in revolution/timeless children just wasnt expecting it to be the doctor to die
