#never liveblog after

[dice-eater]

man I have not been feeling the latest neverafter :(

all the talk on the adventuring party about how much fun it is to find a desk full of info but all I could think was how much more i would've liked to have the characters find out this information organically through exploring the kingdoms of the neverafter. The lines between stuff was kinda cool but it was soo clear that brennan had not intended for them to get there that early so they just met Yet Another set of npcs that would immediately be dropped by the next episode.

Like can you imagine how much more meaningful the boss fight would've felt if we could have followed the party's approach to the city of chimneys? Rosamund seeing the wanted posters for the mermaid princess, learning about the council of kings bc commoners are skittish around Gerard..

The Wolf Soup leaking into the rivers of the land, infecting the land with undeath so we can be SHOWN instead of just being TOLD 'blah blah a world without death is obviously bad'

#never liveblog after #neverafter spoilers #ehh im still hopeful bc the princesses little group is a real interesting part of the story and it looks like theyre getting into that next #but man the fact that theyre more than halfway through the season and dont even know specifically what they want to ask baba yaga is so💀💀 #an echo from the well

Y'all have been LIVING LIKE THIS??? This is still SEASON 2. Buddie fans are the strongest ❤️❤️

#honestly I wouldn't have made it to season 3 with this without having come in after the BuckTommy kiss #like. this is the exact looking directly in the camera at shipping fans and winking that I've seen in a million never-canon ships #i couldn't've held out hope. this would've ended me. #like in 2010 this would've been the “these crazy women see two white men standing near each other and immediately think they should kiss” #mockery that would be used to discredit all the queercoding that fans are legitimately picking up on #but yall true hearts kept strong and now canon bi Buck. blessings and love to you beautiful and brilliant and strong fans #buddie #buddie 911 #911 #911 abc #911 abc liveblog #s2e18

I’m too lazy to analyze it someone do it for me but that part in the convo q!Bad had with q!Baghera where she says something like “The workers could have a family, they could be someone else’s egg” and q!Bad responds with “yeah I thought about it, that’s when I stopped uh…”

because that seems very important to me. it seems like a confirmation of the fact that q!Bad saw these workers as mindless drones and Walter Bob as an outlier, an mistake on the federation’s part. And then when Ron essentially confirmed that it wasn’t, that they all have feelings, he stopped.

Stopped what? Stopped seeing workers as nothing but extensions of the federation? Stopped psychologically torturing Ron? Stopped keeping him in a damp cage? Stopped resisting the urge to care?

Stopped what? No matter which option you pick, you learn that q!Bad thought about the workers in a certain light, learned information that potentially severely contradicted his belief, and then reflected and adjusted his own behavior accordingly. If the “that’s when I stopped…” was about to end in “torturing him” that feels like a huge… something… about q!Bad and his supposedly “unhinged” nature.

There are a couple natural conclusions to that sentence, almost all of them make q!Bad seem a lot more… something… than I’d originally given him credit for.

#i think. that it’s positive. i think this is one of those rare times where I’m going ‘wait a minute’ #idk that line is just throwing me for some reason #it’s a one off and he doesn’t really touch on it any more but it’s important to understanding him I think #it’s also worth mentioning that as far as we know he only physically tortured ron ONCE #with one soul vulture #because prior to that both ron and bad confirm the torture was purely psychological #which isn’t necessarily better per say but it’s important to keep in mind for Bad’s character #because after that. after that one soul vulture we never really see bad return to. that. #and it’s also worth noting that bad tortured HIMSELF with the vultures so he knows exactly how much pain he’s causing #he put himself through it #qsmp #qsmp liveblog #qsmp badboyhalo #q!badboyhalo #qsmp analysis #q!bbh character analysis

watching yyh and i’m not very far but i am feeling a little insane about how casually self sacrificing yusuke is, how he’s literally incapable of seeing his own worth or thinking ahead for one second to realize that the people around him do actually love him. he knows they do, he’s been shown that multiple times, but it’s like he can’t believe it. and how he keeps thoughtlessly throwing his life away for other people and the universe keeps going, okay kid, that was really good of you so we’re gonna give you One More Chance so take it seriously alright? but he can’t. HE CAN’T take his own life seriously. he’s such a wonderful kind boy but he can’t recognize that within himself. he’s just a thug, he’s a burden, he’s a bother, he’s not worth anyone’s time and these are ideas are so internalized that he doesn’t even realize the problem with constantly using his own life as a bargaining chip.

#maybe i’m getting ahead of myself but i AM thinking about how he jumped to help kurama #after hearing his story about feeling like a monster leeching off his mom and the constant guilt and debt he feels about that #just saying it’s interesting how much that moved yusuke. i’m normal about it okay #don’t beat me up if i’m wrong i’m only on like episode 8 aghdg #may as well have a liveblog tag even though i never use those much #yyh liveblogging #yyh #sully is typing

No one's gonna go looking for him

They're gonna think he's just staying holed up in his home

He never leaves anyways, so it's not unusual for him to not appear for a while

No one's gonna know he's gone

#roserade #i was about to be like What Where's Roselia! but i remembered that this is another one of those evo lines that's all out of order #because of retrofit prevos and evos. i'm glad they haven't done any of these since like gen 4 bc these things are confusing #see i'm gonna say that and then someone is gonna point out one in like gen 5 or something. and then i will die. i will lose forever #i'm queuing this up waiting for the presents on august 8th. i'm sure i'll liveblog it on my main but like. it's not gonna be anything #it's just gonna be sv dlc. that's literally the one single interesting thing they're gonna mention. i swear. that's it #no WAY we're getting any other new games this year. we got TWO last year. and that was right after pl:a was back-to-back with bdsp #i would be Very wary about the quality of the next pokémon game if we do get one this year. which we won't bc main series DLC tends to #replace a new core series game. it stands in for one. as we saw with swsh. and then they'll do one next year on the fuckin switch 2 or w/e #centro pokémon says sv was the last $60 pokémon game. and now they're gonna be $70. which is sad but to be expected #dunno. the presents is gonna be long over by the time you all see this so maybe i'm wearing the fucking clown makeup and we got a pmd game #or hell. a new pokémon ranger. that has a dedicated fanbase. for a game i've never played. should i? maybe i should

And Tomoyo just whips it out immediately, because she knew he was going to bring it up in this conversation. Not even as a seer, because she can't do that anymore - just because she knows him so well.

AND OH THAT FINAL PANEL, WITH KUROGANE REFLECTED IN TOMOYO’S EYES. AMAZING. BEAUTIFUL. 

Also the SECOND funniest way to tie the theme of doubles into Kurogane’s plot - there are just… two of him when reflected in someone’s eyes. 

I WILL TAKE IT. THANK YOU CLAMP.

The fact that Kurogane is surprised to see it is SUCH a nice touch. Even though he had a copy of it for such a long time, this is the ACTUAL link to his family. This is the ACTUAL symbol of his past and everything his family legacy means. It's not just a memory anymore - it's sitting right here in front of him, carefully wrapped up and cared for all this time.

It's the final stage in Kurogane's backstory coming back around. It's the continuation of the exact conversation they had in this exact room about this exact sword all those years ago. It's Kurogane finally returning home, not to be with Tomoyo as he once thought, but to continue the promise he made to his family all those years ago, and to take down the man who slaughtered everyone he loved.

It's, once again, everything coming full circle.

Proof that Tomoyo is the best: SHE EVEN PROVIDED THE FLASHBACKS TO THE EXACT SCENE I WENT LOOKING FOR.

THANK YOU TOMOYO, MY BELOVED. If I did not just hunt this down moments ago this would have been the EXACT context I needed.

That aside, Tomoyo pulling a “So I kept it” is infinitely funny to me and this is such a good turn of events. 

It turns out that Kurogane’s mother foresaw certain future events and ALSO prepared for them ahead of time. 

Or at least that would fit the pattern of every other seer we have in the series. It’s possible she didn’t foresee anything at all and she just talked to Tomoyo as a general precaution, but either way! Here we are!

#Tomoyo feels guilty for lying about it in the first place #Knowing full well she never intended to put it with the grave #But how can you really argue with a request like that? #Kurogane knowing that his Mother Herself wanted him to keep the sword #and carry on the family legacy after they inevitably died #OH WHAT A MOMENT FOR HIM #Liveblogging the reservoir chronicle #Tsubasa #Vol 182 #Kurogane #Tomoyo #So I kept it #It's all so beautiful

Finished Russian Roulette. Feeling sick again

#god the way that White Carnation was almost certainly meant to invoke the scene where he tried to kill himself #especially since it's placed right after it #so it's like. it's like the lesson he's learnt from that pretty much #and if he couldn't save himself #(because really the chances of him dying in that scene was 100% there was just a 1/6 chance he would physically survive) #if he couldn't save himself maybe he can save this woman. #im going to throw up #and the fact that he just. never sees Hunter ever again? kills me #he trusted once and never again. it was better to forget Hunter meant anything to him at all #the fact that he just “Hunter died a long time ago” and that's that?? I'm screaming #he doesn't even care anymore. or maybe he does but he can't afford to #and the fact that White Carnation gets deleted after you read it. what's up with that? maybe he reads it and decides it's not wise to #have proof that his humanity is still there if not intact #I've just been liveblogging myself reading this book tbh #wild ride. 10/10 would not recommend on the basis of the psychological damage it dealt me #russian roulette #alex rider #yassen gregorovich

so my wallet was stolen. either last night (the last time i remember seeing my wallet) or this afternoon (when i was out and about), but i suspect it was stolen while on my date!! bc all the fraudulent charges (over $8k worth!! on my personal cards AND my work card) were made like 15 min away from where we were. and my true crime paranoia brain wonders if he had anything to do with it bc he ended the date v suddenly literally right about when i now know was the first fraudulent charge and made no mention of meeting up again. which at the time i chalked up to it just being an average date but now i wonder if its bc he helped fucking rob me. which i have no proof of but. what the fuck.

which as i was typing this, one of the banks called me back to tell me some other places the thief’s tried to use my card and told me that they’re usually v fast so it would be surprising if it was stolen last night and when i told him my theory he was like “i would trust your gut on this” and said that in cases like this, usually the victim is targeted and that's what he assumes happened here.

anyway! fuck my life!!

#my initial impulse was that i must have dropped it last night #but that was bc i thought the charges were happening at stores around the theatre i was at #but right as i was going to call the cops i realized all the stores the cards were used were literally within a 10 minute walk of our date #he had to have been in on it #he ended the date SO fucking suddenly #and now that i've got all the time stamps it seems like he ended it right after they probably got out of the city we were in #bc they went from where we were and then crossed into DC to make other purchases #they stole about $4k from me and $4k from my job #great #kat liveblogs her life #anyway i am never going on another online date ever again! OFFICIALLY.
