“You had a chance at life with love and music; dresses fit for a lady and you wasted it. You left everyone behind, again. And what did you do with this life, that you were given? What did you do? What did you do?”
reading a novel that’s basically a pastiche of a true crime investigative piece where one of the murderers has a tumblr and the author has helpfully included this footnote….. like you don’t need to tell me eliza I was fucking there
Six new episodes of The Nevers are airing THIS WEEK. February 14 and 15. Watching it probably won't do anything because the show is effectively DOA, but watch it because you deserve good things in your life.
Sometimes I get caught up thinking about the dead wife trope, especially in fallout. And I know it's something we all love to pick on, because the fridged woman to enhance the Man Pain is very tired.
But if you think about it with an in-universe frame of mind, it makes more sense for so many people, especially the older people, to have been married and lost a spouse. Yes the companions' stories are all emotionally fraught, but it would not actually be uncommon to hear. Lucy, killed by ghouls. Barbara, targeted by anti-synth hate crime. Nick Valentine's fiancee died pre-war! There's plenty of pre-war ghouls we get to meet, and I'm sure most of them have lost a partner along the way to the present.
I wish really that the death and loss was treated (both by fandom and canon) not as a man pain enhancement, but as a vector for exploring grief and hope and recovery in the worst of conditions.
i’ve finally watched the nevers finale which why did it have to end like that my truepenance heart is broken so take this edit and another that’s similar i just couldn’t decide which I liked better
