I'm in love with the scene in chapter 17 of William's route where he essentially weeds out the cops that aren't remorseful about the things happening in the Tower of London
[ "If you feel remorseful about what is happening inside the tower raise your hands."
"if you raised your hands, stay still in the corner."
"And those who didn't, are guilty." ]
I just love that this displays the capabilities of his ability, and ideology. Because yeah, he could've just put aside all the guards without consideration but no- he has the heart (and mind) to "pick out the bad apples", because that's how he has always been throughout the story.
Some of the cops regret being part of such a thing because (maybe) they're aware that some of these people are innocent. that and/or they weren't put through the due process, just locked up and tortured for being an "accomplice" to William. And to William, those cops are "not guilty".
Meanwhile those who freely trample on the freedom of others, stripping them away of their dignity and rights without an ounce of remorse- well, 2nd image speaks for this.

Still on my Ulder & Wyll bullshit but like
I keep thinking of Ulder Ravenguard, sending away his only son at seventeen, and years later hearing of a hero with a fine rapier and mismatched, kind eyes and manners from a storybook, and thinking, demanding surely not. that cannot be my son. my son is a devil's servant. it cannot be. i have no son.
and then after seven long years meeting Wyll again, at Wrym's Rock through a mindflayer's thrall, and feeling something like relief, not at seeing him but at this cold surety that this boy, this man, this hero of the frontiers could not be his son, because his son was not this tall and old and sure-footed, and did not have curling horns and a devil red eye, and the rumors must be wrong, and this Blade must be a stranger.
And then Wyll looks at him, with such kind eyes- his mother's eyes still, even devil-tainted- and calls him "father", and he knows, he knows, and his son is here, so much older and wearier and stronger, too, and he's a hero and a man and by gods he's a monster and by gods he's his son.

showing off the commission i got from @ruporas for my fic, In the Next Life!
i'm still so incredibly excited about this. it's been some months since the story event that caused these scars, but i wanted SO BADLY to be able to see what they'd actually Look like... & Here They Are.
ruporas rendered the scars So Well, i just cant stop Looking at them... there's a Fresh & a Healed version, which ruporas was kind enough to give me without additional charge (Thank U Again😭😭) so i get to see what it looks like at different stages.
Lichtenberg Figures. in terms of actual scarring, lightning strikes that people survive don't tend to leave permanent scars, but the lichtenberg figures that they (usually temporarily) leave behind are just So Cool... Now, what happens when you get someone who can survive an amount of electricity/lightning that would be Frankly Lethal to any normal human person?
This :]

i love it when a tv show has lows that are so low you're so ashamed to ever show it to anyone ever but then highs that melt your brain a bit, like, "good fucking god, this is genuinely such an astounding piece of craftmanship... my perception of the medium, and perhaps of myself, has been challenged/changed in 40 minutes" but you cant even express that to ppl without feeling like youre fucking deranged bc my god the lows .....

imelda was from the get go supposed to be the femme fatale but that makes her quick marriage to lance even more important to me
the femme fatale is often characterized as a someone that draws the detective into a mess of shit that usually gives “self destructive”, and originally this is set up to be hunch as her connecting detective but LANCE MAKES SO MUCH MORE SENSE
hunch has his own arc, the detective taking himself more seriously, a detective who makes himself known and finally gets proper recognition. meeting imelda didn’t ruin his life, nor does he revolve around her storywise.
so imelda hits all other femme fatale beats and doesnt Need a male counterpart but we also get TROPES!! she, a wanted woman who is known to the police as a mad-woman who turned from an honest life to crime, meets a police captain (basically stand in chief of police currently) and immediately smooth talks circles around him. lance questions his boss, his job, and his life to chase after this sudden Excitement that he hadn’t allowed himself. literally, brennan says that lance has never felt so Alive.
imelda, the true version of femme fatale, finds her cynical and disillusioned “right side of the law” man, lance, and immediately they run together. then we learn that lance’s concerns is the reason that copper is so easily found in mentopolis doubling down on the “morally ambiguous” trope. she doesnt look at lance and go, actually dont be so wary of everyone, she (because she is impulse and because of how aware she is of the situation they are in) connects to him on his need to just Act.
imelda pulse is such a good femme fatale character and her moment with lance has lived in my head all this week. i cant wait to see how fast this marriage falls out once elias is no longer in that all or nothing space, though trauma, maybe they will stick together for a little longer than any of us are ready for.

soap is a proud boyfriend, but especially so when it comes to your online presence!!
johnny is so proud to show you off under every circumstance. he comments on all your instagram posts with the most insane compliments--hyping you up and being so goofy and loving, lots of emojis or "that's my girl!"
he shares your stories to his stories because he loves everything you do--whether it's photography, art, food, a hot selfie. his own stories are always a mix of gym and pictures of the two of you out on dates.
he might be a grown ass man but he your name in his bio with no shame, and has a couple photo as his pfp on most social media, apart from discord where you have matching pfps instead... and it was totally his idea. if you play games together he might ask if you can have matching or complementary gamer tags for certain games (you can decide if you think it's cute or cringe)
he'll retweet the cutest love memes to his twitter, or comments "us!" and tags you when he sees something sweet. is always just sharing and tagging you in things in general, whether it's cute or funny or anything else.
most of his feed on every socmed is pictures of the two of you or your adventures together and he loved sneaking cute candids of you (but of course only posts them with your permission!)
