wanna roadtrip in america? don’t forget to budget for TOLLS!!

ever heard of the troll under a bridge? well in the modern day they’re ghosts and they WILL HAUNT YOU

no cause fr tolls will triple or add $100 or other bullshit if you don’t pay them immediately so don’t wait for the pay by mail letter. once you go through a state, look up your license plate and get on that shit. don’t forget about things like e-zpass but also remember that not all states use that, because obviously the states have to be unique. just. budget for tolls. budget for EXPENSIVE fucking tolls and pay them as quickly as possible

#like the late fees were my fault adhd tax and all that #but like. i had $150 in tolls just from ny cause my fucking ezpass wasn’t working #and without late fees i had i like $100 of tolls from other places #and that was only the places that did mail stuff—some places do still make you pay as you go #obviously I did a super long roadtrip so tolls are to be expected but in my head tolls are like one dollar #we went through TWO in Pennsylvania and it was $50 what the fuck is up with that #life of a boomerang

Okay but like. Two things about the volume 8 statue [redacted] chapter.

Firstly. By god no amount of "yeah it was unhinged" comments on this website prepared me for whatever the fuck that was. I need at least 5 business days to process.

Second, was I the only one who read that scene as:

Hua Cheng, teeming with self-satisfaction to see Mu Qing near writhing with scorned disgust and fury: this was a 100% successful trip

Xie Lian: our statues are fucking in Mu Qing's palace oh god oh fuck what do you m e a n successful

Hua Cheng, smirk getting even bigger: this was a 100% successful trip

#tgcf #volume 8 spoilers #hualian #hua cheng #xie lian #mu qing #hua cheng really out here like 'it's called christening the heavens with our love which is more than you lot deserve.' #nothing could have prepared me for how that scene played out #hua cheng how does it feel to win every single day of your deceased life #mf thought he was going to be humiliated in front of his lifelong crush/sworn love #only to instead watch one of his love rivals tangentially humiliated by XL's (hualian POST-COITAL) overwhelming spiritual power no less #I have never witnessed a bigger W in my life holy shit the way that boomeranged #I just can't get over how funnily hc's built I swear to god it ends me every time #mfer was born and literally nobody liked that. baby boy suffers for most of his life #fast forward to ghost hc. master of cataclysmic power and protecting his loving failwife (who is basically full of aged weird girl energy) #said weird girl energy being hc's salvation because xl saw him feral and unhinged and legit went 'i like him i'll let him tear up the couch #for 800 y e a r s hc pined and nourished his love--waiting for his opportunity #thusly leaving every single one of his competitors for xl's attention in the dust (not that they were much to write home about) #hc is like the definition of 'bide your time and fucking destroy' #i don't care what anyone says he's legitimately one of the coolest characters i've ever seen #i also can't get over hua cheng straight up being like 'xl in distress? we all know who this is a job for. M E' **builds hc statue** #without an ounce of hesitation #the way i love this mfer he's so sweet and so funny at the same time nobody doing it like him #i also love mxtx's passion for the dynamic of “GET RID OF HIM HE'S A MENACE” “no he just needs enrichment let him be" #why bingqiu and hualian will live forever in my heart

head canon that Minashee is just straight up the Water Tribe from Avatar the Last Airbender which goes with how Legends Sifo-Dyas looks vaguely Native/Inuit and also him coming from a fishing culture and also how he has hair loopies just like Katara and also how I know on a spiritual level that he would just look amazing in fur??

#sifo dyas #avatar the last airbender #water tribe #Sifo-Dyas has real Sokka energy for the first half of his life let's be real #if Sokka accidentally broke the fabric of time and space with his mind and hallucinated Order 66 every day #Sifo boomeranging Dooku in the back of the head is funny tho

#WOMP WOMP. #phoenix and edgeworth r both weapon and meister and are capable of weilding each other. erm. and apollo is a boomerang👍 #maya has multiple forms (staff/throwing knives/a secret third thing i didnt feel like drawing) #edgeworth became a full on meister after dl6 and is uncomfortable with being a weapon until well. you know #and phoenix was mostly a weapon until dahlia / meeting mia and eventually started leaning towards mostly being the meister role after that #just bc his life got so saturated with the fey family he just doesnt rlly think about he's useful any other way #and then when he gets 'disbarred' (idk) he leans back more towards being just a weapon 👍👍👍 #mr adaptable thats him #and apollo. is a boomerang👍👍 #we had other thoughts like about gumshoe and franziska and klavier but. hand hurt maybe later if people want it

if Izzy had to die, like it was inevitable for the plot then I wish he died when he shot himself. then the only person who sees him is ed, and izzy literally turns into the symbol of blackebeard. Ed struggles to leave everything he was behind because backtracking after he caused izzy to kill himself makes him feel like he could have saved him. during the season izzy follows ed in every scene except the ones ed's with stede (so it's the perfect metaphor for ed to be at peace) and after a while finally when ed is alone. and ed mourns and then at the end we find out izzy was a ghost all along, and when ed lets go of izzy's ghost then he's ready to leave blackbeard behind.

it would still hurt and izzy's purpose in the story would still be about ed's arc, but at least izzy's death has consequences.

and in the meanwhile if you want to headcanon him as alive in the background bc ed's not very in touch with reality and in some scenes izzy interacts with people then there's the plot twist at the end that ed's guilt materialized as izzy (and you can put so many implications about their relationship here) but when ed finally lets go of his past then izzy can be his own person, have his own arc.

because we didn't even need so much izzy screen time this season (i loved it) but we didn't need izzy to have so many interactions with the crew and stede and everyone and have him grow. he could have stayed in the background slowly fitting in. and if they got renewd for a third season they could've explored his character more. and this season could've been really about ed/stede relationship instead of having them getting together -> breaking up -> getting together -> breaking up -> getting together... s2 focused on the main characters' realtionship and if they got renewd for s3 then background characters is fine. but like this, they tried to have everything and instead we got half-completed story-lines that feel hollow

#izzy hands #ofmd #ofmd spoiler #don't get me wrong i love izzy hands but if he had to die then i wished for it to have meaning #ed's arc in s2 is about getting at peace with himself after the horrible things he's done finally boomeranged back to him #and stede's arc is about deciding if he wants to be a pirate or not BUT along with ed's choices #ed can still very much decide to be a fisherman out of the blue but then stede follows not that stede wants to be a pirate the very moment #ed wants to quit #and at the end they find out that the thing that made them happy about all those life changes was having each other #stede bonnet #edward teach

i'm sorry but quite shrimply Guy who does hand to hand + guy with a sword is simply the dynamic of all time. there's not much else to get.

#🐾 #and then they make it crazier because actually the hand to hand is FIRE and zuko also has swords #and sokka also attacks people physically because he's crazy. #and they. and i cannot stress this enough. SOLO #sokka is actually so crazy for consistently his entire life being a nonbender and still going toe to toe with some of the other craziest #bitches EVERRR. like oh my god they're throwing fire and rocks and shit and you've got to RUN OVER TO THEM. to HIT THEM #they should've given him a bow along w the boomerang god it would've been so cool #i heard they gave azula a bow in the live action but i haven't seen this .. #atla #☆

I'm not very active because I'm packing my luggage for my little trip. I'll try to post something this evening, but I can't promise anything. Also, I twisted my left hand, but I'm lucky because I'm right-handed. But it slows me down considerably...

I wish Boomer could help me... or maybe not, that's not a good idea. He's the type that would break all the eggs by accident...😅 So it's better not!

Hi! I understand if you don't feel like sharing it ,but i really would like to read your meta about that Henry/Anne scene in BSR ''Isn't that enough?''. I hope you have a nice day.

"is it enough for you?" , but yes, i actually elaborated on this a little more elsewhere in other tags because i used that shot of that scene again for another edit.

so, expanding where i left off:

the images chosen are more the vibe for the quotes but the one from BSR is very specific

it's a great scene and it's so well-acted bcus she feels BAD for him here.

she pities him. she feels bad for him because he's losing her bcs she's not going to settle for these terms

because she knows she's amazing

and she's so self-posessed in the scene

and he cannot handle this and so it manifests in the reaction(you're making a big mistake; except that is his own big projection)

she's willful and knows her worth and won't diminish herself for anyone

...and i chose the reaction from the scene bcus it's not necessarily at odds with these descriptions (of her 'prudence')

bcs it takes a lot of dignity and self-worth and inward grace to stand one's ground enough (to withstand the 'tide of their prince')

...to give that rejection that by all social and cultural norms and graces she was simply not supposed to give. or was at least supposed to couch in more self-effacing terms.

but yeah anyway i know people thought BSR was 'trashy' but i actually thought the acting and chemistry between them was really great and maybe even lifted the writing from its weaker points.

because just the way he reels back at the line 'is it enough for you?' in all its pity-wrought glory...firstly, because it seems like it's a question no one has ever thought to ask him before, and secondly, so it gives way into that transformation from the shock into anger (how a 'lesser' person is daring to pity him, how he doesn't want her pity, he wants her love) which is just...chef's kiss. she absolutely obliterates his dignity here, not only in her rejection but in this eloquent explanation as to why this is her answer, and in the finality of her conviction. it is delicious. they could have this scene anywhere, in this darkened staircase for its the tudors copycat setting in this lithuanian palace, or on a fucking greenscreen, and it would still be just as powerful if these were its actors.

(im realizing that if anyone who is reading this hasn't watched they're going to think i'm an insane person based on this description... so hopefully the actual beats of the scene below will reveal what i mean, lol:

there's also a compelling subversion of (modern) expectation here, because...the only different thing in this equation is the status of the man asking to love her, asking why love is 'not enough'. for most 16c women of anne's status, no, 'love' wasn't enough. security was preferred. and, actually, it's very anachronistic how much this opinion is villianized (see, tobg:

...when it's like...yeah, a man's love was considered worthless. if it wasn't, they wouldn't have considered betrothal contracts to be a necessary evil!). it's very easy for him to say that she would 'want for nothing' (households, jewels, etc, one assumes), and she isn't allowing his ease: she's contradicting him, and pointing out that there is little security in the position of royal mistress.

herein lies the constant counterfactual moralistic tutting: anne 'should've just become a mistress,' always paired with 'this would, in the end, have made her 'safer.'' and it would have, as we know (not anne), but it would also, as she points out here, likely lead into her being a nonentity (a voice on the pillow, a woman hiding underneath the sheets and behind the bed curtains, an ornament for dancing), and she didn't want to be one: she wanted to be partner and collaborator of her future husband, not the diversion and darling of someone else's.

tl;dr the scene is powerful because she feels bad for him (she feels bad for herself, too, but she only allows him to see the former:

#redrosesandcharmingsouls #something about him essentially shouting at the top of his lungs 'WHAT'S SO 'HUMILIATING' ABOUT LOVE' #as he humiliates himself. for love. and so tries to leave with the final word. #and then still comes bounding back (by implication. the next MORNING?? ) like a fucking boomerang #all like step 1: failed. #and her asking why he would ask for something which diminishes them. why would he only want half a life with her? #doesn't he want more? it's a challenge but she's not expecting him to take it literally #she's asking why did you ask that of me? do you want me to think less of you? #do you think so little of me? do you think so little of yourself? don't you want more for yourself? #and it's the perfectly written question for these two people. from her to him #bcus they're both alike in that way. they both always want more for themselves #they are both always seekers #so yeah as much as i guess im alone in this opinion #i think this series did a really great job of like...establishing their point of connection #she's a challenge and he's a challenger.
