hello hello i have returned to my origins and i am reading TLH and it's really fun and i love it and i missed reading the shadowhunters series so bad and all characters are really cool and rad and i cry every time that will, tessa or jem appear together i am totally normal about this
My favourite line from this book is when Anna says “please attempt to locate the point.” I am going to use this as much as I possibly can. Oh how I love sassy Anna
the way some stories are all fun and games in the start: innocence and exploring life, shared jokes and struggles, finding love but also uncertainty, allowing oneself to be vulnerable while learning ‘oh no! not with just anyone, only my person’ but then you learn more of the story, and it's just secrets and secrets revealed, ‘I love you and I can't see you in pain (you deserve better)’ plus ‘I love and I can't show you my pain (you deserve better),’ and ‘let me keep you safe’ and ‘no! let me keep you safe,’ and seeing the sun shine through the loved ones even when there's a dark cloud on their head, and when it's time to go back to normal life, stories ending like ‘I've seen your darker shades and I'm not afraid, I'm here to help’ and ‘let's stick together’ and ‘we have come so far’ and loving each other stronger than ever, and I just so, so love it.
Ngl i actually fucking loved the FNAF movie. Like maybe its because a month before it came out i watched markiplier and activated a hyper fixation of it, but it was LIT
So many bits felt directly out of the Silver Eyes book trilogy. Like the scene in the arcade with foxy or honestly the whole ending was v similar to fourth closet's ending. Fuckin loved it.
Also the fact that it was all super faithful EXCEPT for the big differences which felt very intentional. Like i think its implied Mike is Henry's son here? And tbh if they do sequels that'll be far less complicated plot than actual fnaf lore.
Vanessa being ole Willie's daughter make so much sense!! Like obviously its completely different from the games. But in terms of characterisation / place in the story she was already Willie's 'protégé'. Here she's just literally his daughter. I also liked how she was essentially what people assumed Mike in the games was? Someone who was abused but complicit in hiding the 5 kids death.
If they do get a sequel i hope we get some explanation on the Schmit and Afton family backstories. Like Aunt Jan?? Such a similar name to Aunt Jen. Also whether a CC character exists? Or whether Elizabeth exists.
Because if Mike is Henry's son then that would put Garret as Charlie's counterpart rather than CC's. Especially since willie wasn't wearing the suit when he killed him and Garret isn't possessing any of the current animatronics (unless ofc 'Its Me' on the glass was Garret and they are a CC counterpart but idk ive only just seen the movie)
My favourite bit was Cassidy tho. Idk if this has lore implications for their gender in the actual games but god they were spot on. The kid playing them was great, you could tell they were having fun it, unsettling little angry ghost boy my beloved
So yeah the movie was super camp but so fun and the puppet design was FANTASTIC
I heard this audio and. And I needed to. I needed to draw the sisters cause kdskjfs
Cause like, dang when they reunite Maggie is gonna have a completely different experience than Nova. For Nova, it's seeing her sister who she thought was dead, is now alive. Grown up. She knew her at one point.
Maggie never really knew Nova before the events of the first book. She's only ever held ideas of who her sister could have been. Even after meeting Nova, it was never in a positive light which contrasts how Nova acts around kids (Max.) her age. Yes, it was maggie's fault for her sticky fingers though she still never got to truely know Nova
