Ruby: (Yawns) I haven't slept that well in weeks!
Jaune: Same. (Weiss cuddled between them) I wonder why that is...
---------------------------------------------------
Without Weiss
Yang: (Swings open door) Hey, Ruby, I'm heading out to the club with Blake. Cool?
Ruby: (Snaps awake) H-Huh?! What?!
Yang: Cool, thanks, bye~! (Slams door)
Ruby: (Bleary, Looks around)
Nora: (Kicks door open) JAUNE! HELP!
Jaune: (Rolls out of bed, Hits the wall wrong) AGH! W-What's going on, Nora?!
Nora: (Holds out finger) I have a splinter, and I can't get it out!
Jaune: Ugh...
---------------------------------------------------
With Weiss
Blake: Where are you going?
Yang: To let Rubes know we'll be out all night.
Blake: Bad idea. (Points to the door) See?
"To whom it may concern,
Jaune, Ruby, and I have retired for the evening. If there is an emergency, contact us by our scrolls. They work, I assure you. UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCE ARE YOU TO TRESPASS WITHOUT MY PRIOR PERMISSION!
Sincerest regards, Weiss Schnee"
Yang: ...I've never seen a wordier "Do Not Disturb".
Nora: Ren, I think there's something outside my window! I was gonna get Jaune, but Weiss threw me out with her glyphs!
Ren: No, you can just sleep next to me tonight.
Nora: Okay~!
---------------------------------------------------
Ruby: Oh, that's right! Weiss is our sleep bodyguard!
Jaune: She's so great, isn't she?
Weiss: (Smiles, Snuggles closer to Ruby)

Jaune: (Yawns) Good morning... Wait, why am I on your side of the bed?
Ruby: Oh, I got scared last night that a Grimm would burst through the door and eat me.
Jaune: Heh heh... What?
Ruby: My side is closer to the door, so...
Jaune: Ah, that makes sense.
Jaune: ...
Jaune: Wait...
Jaune: YOU WERE GONNA SACRIFICE ME?!
Ruby: Aw! Thank you for understanding~!

I am literally always correct about media
Three episodes into Bravern.
I saw the first episode, not even, the first fucking MOMENT it said "This is a training exercise" I knew, I fucking KNEW, I was in for the Evangelion Rebuild 0.00 You Do (Not) Want To Watch Evangelion experience. And my Brothers in Shinji Ikari's goop, I'm ignoring that parenthetical because thesis never exist in the first place, and parents never exist in the first place, it's all just the complete and constant Holy Trinity of living in the present for the present. And oh boy that Angel sure is Cruel.
If you don't think I'm speaking "Truth" you need to realize two things about me:
1. I've seen footage. They've shown us so much, and broke show-don't-tell DELIBERATELY multiple times to address the immediate concern that the audience should be asking IMMEDIATELY if they've seen the same footage as well (Like how it obviously has a 1 to 1 Evangelion LCL bit but it's green and referenced as "From The Abyss" doing that absolutely devilish charm of manipulating by never telling lies, only different truths, further proven by "Wait how do you know about that?" Or how the outro is clearly on a stage but then it almost tears or blurs into stars. You fuckers remember MyHouse.wad right?? You know this shit means something, right??) Or the invocation of very very very specific tropes followed by another very very very specific trope, or the deliberate subversion of trope followed by a character deliberately trying to force the trope out of subversion into genuinity. Many such cases, too many to list. I've just seen footage and I don't know how people don't see the fucking massive amount of narrative foils-per-minute, both within the show and connecting outside the show. The Evangelion shit is easy, it goes far deeper than that. (A good example is how they were clearly invoking starship troopers-y Earth patriotism and then subverted SST by the mixing of genders in a changing room seeming awkward and like it's not supposed to happen but happening anyway to form an extremely subtle juxtaposition.)
2. I stay noided. Every fucking subtle change of the framing device, of a characters features (Like in the outro alongside choice moments in the show, similar to the effect Cyberpunk Edgerunners that I can first remember coming from Evangelion), the minor moments of nonfalsifiability, the constant IN CHARACTER "Don't think about it just do it my way and it'll be okay" explanations that only rhetoric-obsessed mentally ill person like me would understand (Followed by things that only make sense if you knew what to look for), the fact that the intros and outros are literal propaganda that the audience WANTS to buy into (I believe representing the passion the fucking love hypercube evokes and each member experiences uniquely), the consistency of certain stylistic choices (Like conflating the stars and crosses to focus on Evangelion just a little more), the deliberate choice to use an entirely new stylistic transition or in between just to pretend like it wasn't anything important at all, it all MUST have meaning. The whole POINT is the power of inspiration and the neutrality of power being two coexisting ideas. The clothing metaphors, the masking metaphors, the gay metaphors that form subtle trans metaphors that form certain asexual-aromantic-agender metaphors, the literal fucking AT fields that are broken by vulnerability. Lewis (The current parallel to Bravern) loses but chooses what's cool so he can try it better next. Ishami (The current parallel to Lulu.. not Vi Brittania I swear, absolutely zero connection at all, tooooootally) is more "serious" but far more vulnerable and has his masks broken down.
They're fucking in a love triangle but tricked you it's actually a fucking square that's been folded so the corners are touching. Which corners are touching which? Good question asshole, it's all of them.
Someone thought "the MegOp ship is pretty cool. If they weren't around would it be Hotrod/Rodimus and Soundwave instead? They are kind of thematic opposites to both their normal foils anyway." and then made a whole show about that after everyone who ever heard that either didn't see enough footage or couldn't stay noided long enough to realize what a genius they were. And since no one understood just how much context builds up to even being able to think that in the first place, they just made the perfect show about manufacturing consent. For what? Literally anything and everything, including nothing.
I know exactly how fucked up the polycule formed when a mortal dares to ask "What if the three parts of the Holy Trinity, like, kissed and fucked and made out?" would be because I dare to ask it constantly, I am living it, we all are. It's the Divine Comedy, it is hell, it is chicken it is eggs it is in between your legs (10 points if you've seen enough footage to get this), and above all else it's hot as fuck and makes me want to never give up and live forever, no matter who you are no matter what you love doing.
I love this fucking show, I can't wait to finish it so I can be proven right on all accounts.
Y'all dumb motherfuckers keep refusing to understand Evangelion, your hubris makes you think you're somehow above Shinji, that you'd be different if you were put in his shoes. And that will always mean people like Lulu and Bravern will always exploit you for the love of doing it.
I have so many thoughts about this show and they're all right and if you think a single one of them is wrong you will literally be proven wrong because I will always be right, in time and out of time.
Maybe the next post or two will be more coherent since I'm taking a break, but I should actually finish the show first so I can gloat even harder about being objectively correct about everything in the universe ever.
