#scavengers reign #scavengers reign sam #ursula tho #i will write a whole post about her soon #you know the characters are good when i cant pick a favorite #like azi???? #amazing #levi???? (crying) also amazing #kamen is a soggy noodle of a man and yet still fascinating #and of course sam is the emotional support cool guy which is why hes always fucking getting stabbed or some shit #im intruiged but inherently untrustful of the new crew #i feel like they are here to show how not to survive on the planet #idk tho #we shall see

love that Scavengers Reign consistently has me in awe over the speculative biology of the alien world and how our cast's experience with it shapes their characters while also simultaneously making this face every fifteen seconds

#scavengers reign #scavengers reign azi #scavengers reign kamen #levi scavengers reign #scavengers reign sam #the fact that sam is just this biosphere's punching bag is both funny and terrible

I really do love the fresh take on the dead wife aspect in scavengers reign like. She didn't die in some terrible accident or at the hands of an evil third party, she died because of you. Because of your ambition and carelessness and because you didn't prioritize her enough to even look for her as the ship was going down. You will carry this guilt for the rest of your life. She will haunt you forever. Pray that her ghost is enough to change you for the better.

#i just think the parallel of azi still running to mia's pod even though theres no way she can get her out in time #just some girl she barely knows & had a one night stand with and she still thinks of her first #vs kamen just going to argue w/ sam & fully buckling himself in to the escape pod before he even thinks about his fucking WIFE #kamen is such a good character (derogatory) like hes not cruel hes just so self centered and he doesnt realize it until its too late #AND THEN HIS PUNISHMENT IS TO. LOSE ALL SENSE OF HIMSELF. TO BECOME A PSYCHIC SLAVE TO THE MEMORY OF HIS WIFE. GOD #this show is so fuckin brutal man. oough. #scavengers reign

The whole time watching Scavengers Reign I was seeing that white lily and I was like ‘okay cool, this represents death’ (see them growing on corpses in the first few episodes and all the fields of them at the beginning of episode 10). BUT in episode 11 they’re shown alongside Levi’s rebirth. So I was like, ‘okay cool, they’re representing death AND life’ and then in episode 12 they’re like little amniotic sacs for the robot embryos so it’s life AND death AND they’re just a little fucked up and that’s kind of the point of the whole show and that’s incredible

#scavengers reign #levi scavengers reign #sam scavengers reign #this show is so fucking good #pleaaase watch it

I wanted to be the one to do it. To tell them it was all going to be okay. Now it's gonna have to be you. Can you... Can you tell them I'm sorry?

(scavengers reign spoilers ! )

the scene in scavengers reign when sam dies absolutely kills me btw im still thinking about it. i love how noble it is, since he's the pilot, first of all. but also how him and ursula arent really friends, they dont really know eachother, but they trust eachother and care about eachother and they were going to get to the demeter together and ursula sees that sam can't go on and breaks down but also respects sams decision even though they can literally see the demeter's crashsite from where they are. thinking about how she hugs him and they touch eachothers hands and press their foreheads together and its just so gentle and kind. and also im thinking about the moment before, after he attacked her, when he said to walk behind him and carry a knife in case the parasite makes him do it again and she doesnt want to hurt him but she trusts him on that decision so she walks behind and carries the knife

#i will actually scream cry and through up about them #the quiet when ursula leaves and sam just sits there beneath the tree and the little bugs and creatures crawl on him. sobs. #and ursula tries to run because the demeter is Right There . but her legs still messed up and shes leaving her companion behind #and then she finally finds azi and they hug and hold onto eachothers hand . ill cry right now . #scavengers reign #kiddo say

While you’re waiting for Fionna and Cake season 2 you should watch Scavengers Reign!!

If you like Simon & Marcy, you will like them as well. They mean a lot to each other and their dynamic is enjoyable and their story is emotional yet beautiful at the same time.

If you like devastating love stories you’ll go crazy about them [I’m talking to you Simon and Betty fans. Imagine them 100x more toxic. This is them. They broke me]

AND BUBBLELINE FANS,, THERE’S YURI. THEY ARE EVERYTHING TO ME.

this is a very obviously telegraphed narrative thread but since i haven't seen anyone talk about it yet i gotta mention how much i liked the little full-circle connection between sam and his skull story. how he originally couldn't fathom giving up control of his own life like that, but when he got bit that pragmatist part of him took over and he essentially manifested his own death in a very similar way

#granted sam had a bit more of a valid reason to believe he was going to die but ghHKGJhkjhjk #same principle of letting go of control #willow whispers #scavengers reign #scavengers reign spoilers

Scavenger’s Reign, Body Horror, and Returning to Nature.

(Spoilers for all of scavengers reign season 1)

This will be my first of a few deep dives/analysis into scavengers reign.

SR is a masterfully done sci-fi series that explores many different types of fear, one of these fears is body disfiguration/mutilation.

The entire world is out to get our protagonists and many things seek to use them for energy or food. Early on we see that the planet is far different from earth, with many of its inhabitants having developed extremely unique defense/reproductive methods.

We see bodies that have long been overgrown with various plants and fungi, taken over completely, these people’s insides are no longer their own they now belong to these organisms, they have become food.

Early on we see Hollow, a parasitic creature with physic powers, paralyze kamen. It paralyzes him in a trance and then puts a black sludge into him. In an off-putting scene we see him forced to ingest it. Eventually hollow will ingest him and insert an umbilical cord like appendage into him, he is connected to the creature and his body is being sustained by it.

At one point we see Sam get pricked by a plant like entity. This entity creates a zombie like clone of him. We see this same entity create a copy of a mammal like creature and watch that clone bulge out and explode into an acidic substance.

This plant pricking Sam spreads some sort of poison up his arm, sickening him and disfiguring his arm for a time. We see Ursula’s horrified face when she sees how the poison has affected him.

He gets cured from the poison by a seemingly helpful old woman however we quickly realize that all is not as it seems and she has been completely taken over by a parasitic monstrosity. This creature uses its controlled hosts to transform their bodies to be able to produce more of these heart like things. Once planted into a victim they spread vein like appendages throughout their host, they change their body in such a Way that they can produce and cough up these same seeds.

It’s rooted in Sam’s body and keeping him alive, it controls his mood and influences his behavior. Causing him to think everything is ok when in reality he’s no longer fully in control of his decisions. He eventually rips it out of himself, and without it he dies.

Throughout the series the planet seeks to engulf people into its ecosystem, they are food here, they are a means to reproduce and nothing more. Their bodies don’t belong to them as far as the life forms are concerned here.

The planets forces the former crew of the Demeter to realize that their bodies can be completely taken over. They have to fight to maintain their autonomy.

Even the ship the crew came on has been over grown by plants.

The last example I will look at is Levi. Levi has some sort of spore/fungal like entity take root in them. Azi is deeply disturbed by this at first, trying to remove the fungal infection. Only in this case Levi eventually is able to become one with this spore, and they become something even more then they started out as, capable of feeling and pain.

Scavengers reign forces us to come to terms that ultimately our bodies will return to the ground. Nature will reclaim its own. In the end the crew had to learn to live along side the planet after being stuck there, and not fight it. They became part of the ecosystem.
