missing season one when the only couple in the friend group were john b and sarah, like why did they have to ruin the characters' dynamics by pairing together every single character?? as if in order to have a "happy ending" you have to be with someone or else you'll be miserable
and don't even get me started on jiara, those two have the biggest siblings energy and they just end up together because of the annoying fans who harassed madison and rudy and pushed the jiara agenda ughh they had zero chemistry and it felt so forced that it physically hurt me to watch their interactions, every scene was just so so bland and boring and yet people love them? kiara lierally said "i love you dude" and jj was like "thanks, great" lmaoo what are we talking about?
the fact that even rafe and barry have more chemistry than them and with way less scenes together says a lot tbh
also i really hate the fact that the writers had kie be with every boy!! she's her own person and they did her dirty with all this stupid relationship business, just leave them friends for god's sake it's not that hard

Tbh i read pt 3 and just started crying like holy shit. The reader’s insistence on being fine so she wouldn’t have to face her father and her perceived reality that he hates her while neytiri is simultaneously realizing that her daughter, her baby, is bleeding out in her arms is just *chefs kiss*
and then the reader nOT EVEN HEARING HIM CALL HER SWEETHEART AND BEGGING HER TO BE OK?? FINALLY GIVING THE SOFT PATERNAL SIDE OF HIM THAT SHE YEARNED FOR UGHH
Also your idea about neytiri unintentionally giving reader the facepaint for iknimaya with her blood is so big brain and for sure will make me cry, like the juxtaposition to reader being alone when she tames her ikran, to being surrounded by her parents and possibly her siblings as they mourn her after what should have been her greatest accomplishment to date is just,,, UGH
(( ngl this is how i thought neteyam’s death in the movie would make me feel if they had given us more context on the family and their dynamic ))
ANYWAYS you’re doing great babes keep up the good work 🫶🏻
THAT PART ABOUT NETEYAM'S DEATH IS MAKING ME EMOTIONAL PLEASE. I HAVE DONE IT. I MADE IT YOU GUYS. AHHHHH 😩😩
Also, me reading one of the most heartbreaking analyses of my own piece of writing (that I have planned to be this way) has me like:

THANK YOU SO MUCH ANON 😭😭💞

#4. Favourite thing about roleplaying?
another  thing  I  love  about  rping  is  being  creative.  Writing  is  a  two  ways  street  and  creating  along  someone  is  always  more  fun  than  doing  it  alone.  I  can't  write  fanfics  for  example  bc  they  don't  bring  me  as  much  fun  as  creating  with  other  people.  I'm  a  people's  person  I  love  communication.
#6. OTP for your muse?
UGHH  ugly  bites  my  hands  but  Ace  /  Sanji.  Do  you  understand  how  gay  it  is  to  light  a  man's  cigarette  ?Maybe  you  two  should  like  kiss  already??  Sanji  not  only  was  one  of  my  muses  but  I  love  Ace  being  a  tease  around  him  to  pull  out  reactions  of  the  cook  he  never  dreamed  of.  Making  sanji  bi  panic  is  funny  and  I  like  their  sexual  tension.
Another  one  is  Ace  /  Law  it  all  started  with  a  single  art  of  them. This  was  my  downfall  I  rotate  them  in  my  head  like  it's  a  microwave.
Ace  /  Smoker  for  obvious  reasons  silabus  sending  me  comics  and  reblogging  art  of  them  and  I'm  like  god  Smoker  you  have  to  take  care  of  one  feral  flame  guy  I  cheer  for  you  man.
Ace  /  Isuka  but  that's  more  of  a  guilty  pleasure  ship  for  me  after  reading  Ace's  novel  she's  just  so  angry  with  him  like  I  get  his  ugly  charm  and  annoying  attitude  captivated  her  I  been  here  Isuka,  I  been  here.
Ace  /  Hiyori  and  here  comes  vega  again  with  miss  swordswoman  who  can  beat  Ace  up  and  he'd  thank  her  on  his  knees.  I  had  so  much  fun  writing  them,  having  with  vega  the  plot  of  their  arranged  marriage.  It  was  such  a  great  idea  and  they  grew  on  me  so  much.
#7. NOTP for your muse?
Any  and  I  say  ANY  attempt  to  romantically  ship  ASL  brothers  in  any  fucking  way.  I  can't  stand  proshipping,  they're  brothers,  they're  family  even  if  they  aren't  related  by  blood  excusing  a  way  around  their  sworn  brothers  oath  is  disgusting  and  I  can't  fucking  stand  it  I  need  to  spill  battery  acid  into  my  eyeballs  if  I  see  any  romantic  content  including  ASL  I  just  cannot.
I  will  also  never  ship  Marco  and  Ace.  Same  thing,  they're  a  family  on  Whitebeard's  ship.  They're  Edward's  SONS  and  it  makes  them  SIBLINGS  in  the  crew.  I  will  never  look  at  Marco  and  Ace  other  than  brothers  and  this  is  how  it  is  or  any  other  ships  with  Ace  and  whitebeard  crew  like  the  fuck.
I  don't  get  Ace  and  Yamato  too.  I  mean  it's  hanging  on  a  string.  I  can't  say  if  it's  a  thing  I'd  ship  or  not  I  always  seen  them  as  bros  /  drinking  buddies.  I  guess  I'd  have  to  write  it  or  try  it  out  with  someone  trusted,  talk  about  the  dynamics  but  for  now  I'd  say  I  don't  see  them  more  as  guys  having  fun.
#24. What about your muse are you most proud of?
I'm  so  proud  of  Ace  that  despite  everything  he  decided  to  live  and  try  to  find  his  answer.  I  know  he  was  going  through  so  much,  he  feels  worthless  and  he  never  felt  good  enough.  He  felt  like  a  monster  and  was  seen  as  one  for  the  longest  time.  I'm  just  so  proud  of  him  pushing  forward  despite  what  happened  to  him.  He's  insanely  strong  for  that  and  I'll  always  respect  him  for  this.

respectfully requesting newt from maze runner for the character meme !!
bro you've Awakened Something in me it's been far too long since I've talked about my boy my babygirl my blorbo
favorite thing about him
his selflessness!!! throughout all the events of the series (both the books AND the movies) he's consistently putting everyone else's needs before his own. he was one of the leaders of the Glade, which meant he worked day and night to keep the order and safety there. and outside the Glade, he pulled his own weight and even put himself in danger to protect the others on several occasions (saving Minho from the lightning storm is what immediately comes to mind but I know there's a lot more). and even in the death cure, when the flare is taking over and he can feel himself changing, he still stays focused and doesn't let that distract him or anyone else from the end goal. to me it's just....heartbreaking, really. he suffered in silence because he didn't want his friends to grieve him while he was still standing there, and so he had to deal with slowly losing his mind by himself
least favorite thing about him
his SELFLESSNESS
listen I can love and hate the same thing about a guy
the fact that he was so focused on the group's survival just added so much more angst to the story and it causes me PAINNNN. like!! in the movies specifically, they were SO CLOSE to giving him the cure!!!!!!!!! they were so achingly close!!!!!!!! but he'd been fighting the virus for so long and it finally took over and he died only moments before the cure arrived. I'm fukcijgn
Tumblr media
favorite line
"great, we're all bloody inspired"
brOTP
Minho and Newt are BESTIES ok. they're besties. I cry about them every day. they're besties
same with Alby and Newt they were! leaders together! and neither of them made it out! I'm unwell!
actually on that same note. I think Minho was the oldest Glader to have made it out alive. all his friends and mentors who came before him are dead. I'm so fucking emo right now
honestly I love all of Newt's canon friendships! his friendship with Thomas is GREAT his friendship with the other Gladers is GREAT
nOTP
meh nothing really....strikes me as a nOTP tbh. in fact I don't really actively ship anyone in this series! usually when I hard-core ship something, it's because I felt unsatisfied with the media/felt like it's an interesting dynamic to be explored. I was fairly satisfied with the series as a whole and I felt like the overall point of them was complete without romance, and to add a lot of romance (excluding the thomas/teresa thomas/brenda stuff that was already there) would have just....blocked out the horror and morally gray themes, ya know? so idk I don't really have strong feelings about any romantic pairings in this specific piece of media
in fact, I saw someone point out that it would've been a stronger and more potent narrative if Thomas and Teresa were SIBLINGS instead of romantic partners and tbh that hasn't left my brain because they're RIGHT. it would've been soooo compelling ughh I'm going insane just thinking about the parallels here
OTP
all that being said, it's kinda fun to play with the narratives a bit :] most of the fic I intend to write in this fandom is friendship/family based, because of my feelings as stated above, but I'm not immune to the newtmas or minewt here <3 there's just something about two best friends who have been through hell and worse together getting to kiss <3
random headcanon
Newt actually left notes for EVERYONE, not just Thomas. he even left one with Thomas intended for Teresa, despite everything she'd done, but ofc she never got the chance to read it so Thomas just kept it in a pocket by his heart. and maybe one day, years later, after he finally found some semblance of peace and healing, he burned it to ash to finally say goodbye to them both
unpopular opinion
listen I love Newt but the fandom has a tendency to shove Minho aside to make room for him (especially hardcore newtmas shippers) which is... :/ let's all examine why that might be !
song I associate with him
Doom Days by Bastille. warning: you will cry.
favorite picture of him
Tumblr media
hair floof <3 he's so blorbo shaped here idk
send me a character!

KHDR Reactions
Episode 6: Uncertain Order
So was it the MoM who was in the corridor of darkness??
Tumblr media
^ YESSS LITERALLYYY this is SUCH a good dynamic, I LIVE!
Tumblr media
^ YESSSS THAT IS FUCKING COOOL!! SNATCHED, BITCH!
“trust me now?” “even less.” GODDD THIS SUCH GOOD MATERIALLLL
“are you trying to sell me this coat?” This is literally my favorite scene holy shit.
“ugh sounds like work” the mom is so gay
MoM “emotions you feel towards loved ones isnt always positive or well meaning— a false kind of light. are these messy feelings light or darkness?” Interestingggg!!!
“the dark thoughts bubble to the surface when we drag others down.” broooo
this scene is so fucking good…
Agrabah
JAFAR AND IAGO LOL
Vala and Vali— oh are they sisters? those sound like sibling names, my bad oops…
Hermod “If you don’t want to talk about it, its fine Urd” I LOVE when people say that. Just like UX this team is just so good, bless.
Tumblr media
^ these lying bitches KILL MEEE
also I just realized. Before they suggested Agrabah wasn’t 100 complete which is why there’s no people. So what’s the truth. And why are Iago and Jafar not 60 years younger— iago alive at all. What tf is happening.
I just love the idea of Sora following a young Xehanort's footsteps without ever knowing
Hermod and Urd implying Eraqus is dumb enough to touch the lamp LOL
"That's a walking carpet, isn't it." "yep, sure is" "Let's pretend we didn't see it" asdlfkajsdflkjsadf
"Eraqus walking like a carpet" LOL
Xehanort "When he took my hand, I felt his greed" inch resting..
Tumblr media
^ Bragi walking with his hands in his pockets is so goood LOL
Okay, they’re talking about things “essential to each world’s order”. I wonder if this connects to KH2, and how weird or specific items tend to unlock special lanes between worlds?
Omg I FINALLY unlocked a new training world LOL
Eraqus “I agree that we need to banish darkness, but at what cost?” HUH. I wonder how that thought process is going to lead to him and VENTUS lmao
Idk wtf is going on lol
Tumblr media
^ they all look so fucking cool lmao
Tumblr media
^ The detail of his arm going over the chair UGHH!!! I LOVE ITTTTTT
The foreboding zoom in on Baldr’s sister LOL
Eraqus going back and forth on what he’s willing to do to destroy darkness…
Aww Urd taking Eraqus’s hand is cute
AND HE TOOK IT BACK, THAT’S ADORABLE
What a nice scene!
Keyblade Graveyard
Okay come on, re:mind!
“1 year later” once again I gotta write that down lmao. I forget shit like crazy
Thinking of how the darkness got to Xehanort, and how aqua was in the RoD for A DECADE.
I LOVE. that these cutscenes zoom in and cut to characters. I feel like that didn’t really happen in UX, so its very cool to see here. Im obsessed
These scene, knowing now that “false light” is darkness claiming good intentions, is just so interesting to me. For one I remember so many theories thinking “false light” were specific haracters, so knowing that anyone could have this false light. IDK I honestly just prefer it a lot more.
I also love the details of the MoM’s hands here. Different sprites and angles for his mannerisms. Just really great attention to detail.
Tumblr media
^ not to ruin the mood but Xehanort looks like he has a goatee here LOL. I know its just his back hair though
I’ve always found this line where Xehanort senses his destiny like a trail to follow, where to go and what to do, very interesting. Like calling the coat familiar. Nobody else in KH is really like that… I wonder if this scene takes place after Xehanort already time traveled in DDD and/or KH3?
I wonder why the MoM coaxes Xehanort into ditching the coat, like he wants him to embrace the Darkness for his plan. But I– is it all to lead to the Tear in Time, something caused by Xehanort’s Keyblade War?
Tumblr media
LOL of course knew they wouldn’t include his god damn name asldfkjaslkdjf. I just KNOW so many people leaned in for this asldkfjasdf

The two Toms, Tom and Thomas for the character meme? 😊
Thanks for the suggestions and my apologies for the late reply!!
Let's break down the two Toms hehe
How I feel about this character:
Thomas - I love him. He was my favourite character from the first moment he appeared on screen, ever since episode one. My love for him only increased throughout the seasons. I think he is one of the most complex characters on the show and he has such a big arc, he changes alot from when we first meet him in season one. I truly started feeling for him in season three - when the whole sleep-kiss fiasco happened. He wants to be loved and accepted so bad. All I want to do is smother him and tell him he will be okay and that he's loved.
Tom - I also love him. Although, my love for him grew upon my second rewatch and after reading the fic And I For Him by dementian. It deserves a mention. I think his character arc is interesting, albeit a bit dissapointing in the end. I enjoyed his revolutionary spark and the way he used to speak up against the aristocraty. Unfortunately, that spark seemed to have dimmed by the end of season 6. Alas I think he has great moments and brings something refreshing to the show and the Crawleys.
All the people I ship romantically with this character:
Thomas - Tom <3 I am not even sorry. The wasted potential, not to mention the amazing chemistry Allen and Rob had off-screen. Still waiting for their gay bar in America spin-off smh.
Tom - Thomas obviously. But I did love the Sybil/Tom romance as well. The first time I watched the series I was rooting for them. Her death destroyed me and so did Tom's grief.
My non-romantic OTP for this character:
Thomas - For Thomas I have many, I love him with Baxter. The older sister and younger brother dynamic is just chef's kiss. ALSO Thomas and the kids please, especially Sybbie & George <333. Can't leave out Mrs Hughes, who has a soft spot for Thomas 100%.
Tom - Obviously Sybbie <33. I also love the sibling-like dynamic Tom and Mary share. Especially, seeing how much their relationship grew over the course of the series. Can't forget Henry who is Tom's canon man-crush and you cannot convince me otherwise. Special mention to Mrs Hughes here as well, because she helped him through some stuff.
My unpopular opinion about this character:
Thomas - I liked his ending as the butler of Downton. I know there are many who would have preferred he left service, which I kind of wanted as well, but I like the idea of Thomas finally belonging. Like he actually feels wanted and loved by the downstairs family. I am convinced most secretly like him better over Carson as the butler.
Tom - I can't get into his marriage with Lucy, at least not after the first movie. The fact he gets to inherit an estate is just ughh. Let's not forget that ending for him goes against everyhting he used to stand for :))) If anything I would have liked it better if he got together with a woman of the working class like Laura Edmunds if not Thomas.
One thing I wish would happen / had happened with this character in canon:
I feel like the answer is obvious, but I wished Thomas and Tom had ended up together. The fact they never bonded over their shared love for Sybil - not to mention Sybbie - is a shame. Even a friendship between the two would have been a joy to watch. Wasted potential I tell you. HOWEVER I heard rumors for a Downton Abbey movie 14 where Tom and Thomas will finally move to America together after realizing they love each other. They take Sybbie with them and become one happy family <33 Totally real. Allen told me himself.

I’m gonna have a nerdy rant about video games please excuse me (zero escape spoilers)
K so my fave game series I’ve become obsessed with is zero escape, aka a weird bullshit series where the fandom is both small and dead as shit. Yay. And I just finished the last game, zero time dilemma. I wasn’t initially gonna play this game just cuz I heard it was kinda bad, but the ending to vlr had me curious. Plus it had Junpei in it and, well, I think he’s neat :)
But aaaaaaa
Yeah it was bad. Ill go over the good things though. I thought the escape rooms were like challenging without being toooo challenging. They were a good medium between the 999 and vlr puzzles. I liked them. I also really liked the D team a lot. Luna was one of my favorite vlr characters so it’s kinda natural I liked Diana a lot too. I also thought Sigma and Phi were really good in this game. I wasn’t to crazy about either of them in the second game but like. They’re cute in this game. And even though they’re "getting together" situation was kinda iffy, I think Sigma and Diana were cute together. The only valid het couple in this series. I’m kinda indifferent about the whole twist where Phi is their daughter. I don’t hate it, and I think it was cool how it was foreshadowed in vlr, but I think it makes some dynamics weird. Personally, I think Sigma and Phi would have a better siblings relationship but eh
Now let’s get into the bad, even though there’s so much that I physically cannot go over all of it. Idk where to even start. First off, the art style and designs had like no heart. Like everyone has interesting designs (one might even say too interesting) in the first two games. In ztd though, everyone was boring as shit. Junpei went from cool Marty McFly trans king to emo middle schooler. HE WAS LITERALLY IN JUST A BLACK SHIRT AND BLACK JEANS GOD. I’m gonna save him for later though. I’m just disappointed. Also the art style was bleh. I thought it looked nice on the cover, and I was also really excited cuz I read that there were "animated cutscenes". Y’all. Ugh. The cutscenes ended up being like the whole game. I was just watching it all go by and I couldn’t skip any dialogue without accidentally skipping important stuff. Not only that, there was no heart in it at all. I’d argue that the 3D models looked better in this game than in vlr (I’m personally not into how they changed to 3D but that’s a rant for another day), but the models in vlr had GREAT emotions! They had zero emotion in this game. I hated it. Thankfully the voice actors were able to add emotion but damn
Next is the characters. Needle to say, I didn’t enjoy most of them. I liked everyone on D team, the end. First of all, freaking Carlos. Talk about boring. Like god maybe I would’ve liked his design if he wasn’t wearing the button up and also maybe wore like any other pants aaaa. Also like hm. He uh, sure liked his sister. In a concerning way. Like it wasn’t a super obviously bad thing but every time romance was mentioned he’d be like "I don’t need romance, I have my sister!" Do you see what I mean? It’s sketchy to me.
Then we got Eric 👺👺👺. I hated this guy. First off he’s like a ripoff of Kristoph from frozen, without the fun himbo personality. And the whole time he was thirsting after Mira which ughhhh. They were worse than Junpei and Akane in 999. Maybe I’m just too gay for this shit but ughh. Also it was a thing that was pretty well established thing that his father was abusive but like. It didn’t really...mean jack shit? Honestly nothing about Eric’s character mattered, he was pretty irrelevant. Also he was super super shitty to Sean who was literally a fucking child
Then Mira. How disappointing aaaagh. Like they were literally just like "oh here’s this chick that has committed murder, this isn’t relevant at all :)". Like damn they really just had her be completely unnecessary huh. It was super obvious to me that she was the one who killed Eric’s mom and I thought that would’ve come up but. It just didn’t. I was also curious about their relationship in general since it seemed like she only got with Eric so she could kill him. And god they could’ve at least done something like idk. Make her like Dio and break into the game to cuz trouble. Or she could’ve been zero. Maybe that’s lazy but it would have been better. But no they literally did nothing with her. There was a timeline where she brutally murdered Junpei just like, for no reason I guess??? Jesus
Sean and Akane were characters I’m just meh about. I didn’t hate Sean, but I didn’t really like him either. Akane was never really my gal in 999 in the first place so hm. I think she’s funny but she’s done some sketchy stuff and idk I’d probably like her better if the games weren’t always trying to put her with Junpei every five minutes
Then there was Junpei. Ughhhh. They were trying something but ughh. He was very emo and kinda douchey and I just wasn’t into him. Which is a massive shame cuz I liked him a lot in 999, and especially in vlr. Like all I can say is that it’s a real disappointment for me
Now onto plot holes and things that didn’t get covered that should have. As previously mentioned, they didn’t do anything with Mira at all. They also didn’t properly go over Sigma and Diana’s relationship that Sigma had vaguely talked about that happened in another timeline. Carlos’s sister was not important at all and they threw in some "she’s got the mind abilities" bullshit in without really doing anything with it. The timeline shit made my brain turn into goo aaaa. We dont get closure on how the pandemic was stopped, which was the reason I played this fucking game. We didn’t learn jack shit about the third nonary game. And then of course, there’s fucking DELTA
This filled me with so much rage y’all. The game was just like "oh yeah btw there was this random old man who was just there the ENTIRE TIME that never got acknowledged ever and he’s the big bad villain of the game. Not just that, he’s the founder of the crazy cult from vlr. AND he’s Diana and Sigmas kid!" Like wow you know I don’t think words can describe how bad that was. I think things would’ve been better if he just like wasn’t there yeah. Also I guess he’s supposed to be like, the player cuz he mind controls the characters into making certain choices. Ugh. IT WAS SO STUPID MAN. And I guess the only ONLY reason he made the second nonary game was to make sure he was born which is just eghhhmm. That is too messy for me. That’s some bad time bullshit. And weird reason but okay. God
There’s literally so much more I have to say but if I don’t I’m gonna pass out so I’m just gonna take a nap and die. Moral of the story is that I’m pissed a series I loved ended so shitty and don’t play this game unless you hate yourself. The end

🎶 + joseph, and also alexandra if you want? :0 if youre still doing these!
shannon, howdy! :D this is a challenging set- i really struggle with getting into joseph’s headspace (which... i don’t know why, i too am Stupide..), and i hardly ever listen to songs for alexandra! however, i will give it a Go!!
i am putting this one under a readmore- it turned out a lot longer than i thought it would!
Joseph:
the laughing song- so. this is an odd choice at first glance, and i feel i should explain the context. I sang this song at Stetson’s Choral University when i was wee sophomore and STRUGGLED with the rhythms and jumps. i vividly remember having a meltdown over my lunch at firehouse subs bc I couldn’t wrap my mind around it, and neither could my friend!! So it became a meme between us- whenever choir was kicking our ass we’d just sing the alto line maniacally. This, I feel, is BIG joseph energy. in an alternate universe, all the crusaders despair in the cave against The Sun except for joseph.. who slowly erupts into the laughing song... litch rally madness
people say- this is more of a somber song, and I think maybe a more introspective song for Joseph. I don’t think he ever fully shakes off the survivor’s guilt from Caesar’s death, and Sergio’s death is just. the second whammy you know. The Crusade is really important to Joseph because while yes, it’s a journey to get rid of the thing endangering his whole family, I think there’s also a small part of the journey that is like. atonement? for not being there for caesar or his son (that is also, spiritually, also somewhat caesar’s son..) in their final moments. I think this song is really reflective of that part of Joseph, that’s also haunted by ghosts. the “kill the voice inside your mind/ we don’t need no answers darling/ hold me close and we’ll be fine/ let’s pretend we never parted” section in particular makes me really emotional, thinking of him and Suzi being each other’s tether in the aftermath of both deaths... oUGH :”(
luminescence- it’s hard for me to explain why, but this song makes me think of joseph’s overarching journey with hamon and hermit purple, and the friendships he forged through both. it’s partially because of the lyrics, but also just because of the chords and dynamics? i have no idea how to explain this, but i really feel this is a softer joseph song. 
aiutami- sometimes i listen to shows and imagine AUs with them but never actually commit to the idea. the light in the piazza is one such show- i’ve been haunted by the ghost of a caejose au for it for MONTHS. Joseph is also just really reminiscent of Signora Nacarelli.. “without risk, there is no drama; without drama, there is no ‘aiutami’, without asking for help- no Love!!” just really reminds me of younger joseph’s wildly melodramatic ass explaining his schemes. also, “does father cheat on mother? she suspects....does father know that she suspects? He Suspects!” is like hghdhghs. in a world where the joseph cheating subplot is Not with a 20 year old college student but rather with his + suzi’s husband caesar and their wife suzi. like.. it coulda been great, if unrealistic :(
the beauty is (reprise)- of course, the context for this choice isn’t 100% 1 to 1 with the actual context of the song. BUT. imagine, “I reach... like these paintings in the old traditions. There’s a figure reaching out in them like them, and to me it is the most familiar tableau I know” with joseph.. it is the most familiar tableau he knows because he’s was reaching First for his best bud caesar, and then decades later for his son. like :powercry: the whole song is a REALLY sad joseph song, but we are just here to suffer. also..”So much wanting something, so much reaching for it, so much wishing just to have One Moment back.” + “I thought if I had a child, I would take such care of her!” AND “If I could, then I would paint it over. I would be there and I wouldn’t turn away....If I only had a chance to not turn away” all in the context of joseph regretting his final argument with caesar, him not visiting Holly once she moved to Japan, and him not checking in on Sergio who he KNEW had a deep debilitating fear of Dio... AUGHHHHH 3 Joseph is a jester, but he’s also a man of regrets and this dichotomy is really beautiful. it breaks my heart yo ; J ;
Alexandra:
gnothi safton-  this is the only song I’ve ever listened to exclusively for Alexandra! I struggled a lot with connecting the dots around her identity, and i remember galaxybraining it in the pitch black of my room at 1 w nothing but this song pushing me on.. Anyhow! this song ties into Alexandra’s fear of stagnation and her desire to explore beyond the palais garnier (which her siblings do NOT understand. they’re like bro we were mad fortunate to be born into this opera house bro.. why would you ever leave? :( and she’s like “it IS powerKNOWLEDGE is power”). She knows costuming is her calling, but there are so many outlets for that and opera costumes are but one niche. Her drive to explore and experiment other styles leads her to La Comédie Italienne, which is where she first encounters Camille and their whole story begins. /(\\\ ///)\
super trouper- Techies get burn-out too!! this song isn’t a 1 to 1 w the interpretation in my head, either, but it’s aight! The first interaction that ever passes between Camille and Alexandra is Camille frantically pouring praises onto Alexandra for her beautiful costume design after a show at LCI, and Alexandra being absolutely swept off of her feet because she’s never had an audience member seek her out to gush over her work! And then!! Camille keeps coming back to see and photograph Alexandra’s costumes! It’s deeply invigorating for Alexandra, and the root of their entire relationship. (also, mamma mia because that’s is Alexandra’s baby- first, it’s a greek musical! second, she works as a costumer and dresser for its debut in london, and then gets carted from tour to tour for it which is a DREAM come true.) 
defying gravity- THE cliche theater song...sometimes I think about this song when hammering out the dynamic between alexandra and her siblings and go :( there are no huge blow-outs at the palais that lead to alexandra leaving, she just Does it because it’s what is right for her. this baffles her siblings, who could never imagine leaving the opera house that nurtured them as they grew up. Alexandra has a lot of Elphaba’s determination and drive. the “I hope you’re happy” repetition specifically is :( because the Xydakis kids are super tight knit! They all know that Alexandra branching out and leaving the Palais means they’ll see her much less frequently, but Marika and Panayiotis also respect that it’s what Alexandra needs to do for her own sake.
all i ask of you- Alexandra grew up in the Palais Garnier, with a ballerina mother and a lighting design father. you Cannot tell me that her parents didn’t take them to see Phantom of the Opera at the West End. you cannot tell me alexandra didn’t dream of one day loving like raoul. You cannot tell me that she and Camille didn’t dance to this at their wedding. yeet yeet in the streets fella
sofia- this song has been THE camillexandra (are we outchea making our own ship names? mayhaps) song. is the character of the narrator synonymous to alexandra? not entirely. but ughh this is the Song i’ve always written about them to.

1. When did you start watching Supernatural?
I started watching when it started airing. I remember seeing the promos for it on the WB and being like “Oh dang that looks interesting, I wanna see that.” So I watched the first episode and I was instantly hooked. Funny, back then the Bloody Mary episode almost made me pee my pants, now I’m just like “OMG LOOK AT HOW TINY THEY WERE!”
2. Who is your favorite in TFW?
I would say Sam. 
3. Who is your least favorite in TFW?
Uggghhhhh, why do you do this to me?? Ughh... Okay, so, I might actually have to say Dean. DON’T GET ME WRONG, I LOVE DEAN. But I feel a sort of protectiveness over Cas and I really like his character development.
4. Tag your top 5 Supernatural blogs.
I REFUSE TO CHOOSE. YOU CANNOT MAKE ME.... Besides, they all know who they are.
5. Who is your favorite character (not including TFW)?
JODY FUCKING MILLS. I love Jody. I think she has come SO FAR since we first met her but she was always a bad ass and I hope she sticks around.
6. Who is your favorite woman in Supernatural?
I can’t say Jody again because I already did. Honestly? Ellen Harvelle. Okay apparently I have a thing for the mother figures in this show, I LOVE THEM ALL OKAY?
7. John or Mary?
How could you do this to me? I love them both. Ugggghhhh, I mean I’ve read John’s journal. But I also really like what they have been doing with Mary. Mary was up on this pedestal until season 12 and 13 and I love how she’s developed. So I’ll say Mary. BUT I AM SO FUCKING EXCITED FOR THE 300TH EPISODE GUYS, SO FUCKING EXCITED.
8. What were your first opinions of Sam, Dean, Cas, and Jack?
Sam: Sam was the first character I really was drawn to. As a younger sibling, I saw a lot of things I could relate with in him and I loved his personality. It also helped that Jared is really good looking, but I’ll be honest, back then I thought his nose was SO BIG. It bugged me so much. Now I don’t even care my dude. Also I remember that I felt so protective of him after the first episode when Jess died. I was like ‘YOU BEST STAY THE FUCK AWAY FROM MY SAM” when anything would happen to him. Obviously, I am still this way. 
Dean: I thought Dean was funny as shit. I thought he definitely acted like an older brother and part of the reason I really enjoyed the show and still do is how Sam and Dean play off one another in their relationship as siblings because me and my sister are pretty similar in terms of how we talk to each other. I really liked Dean though I remember being like “Dude, really?” when he hit on Jess RIGHT IN FRONT OF SAM. 
Cas: I thought Cas was really interesting. I thought the whole dynamics of Angels coming into play was super interesting and I was kind of like Sam was when he first met Cas like “OMG AN ANGEL THIS IS AMAZING” especially because of his entrance. I thought Cas was bad ass. I mean the way he just looked down at the knife in his chest like “... what is that? you stuck something in me? huh.” and then just pulled it out. That was awesome.
Jack: Jack is amazing. I was unsure of him at first. I mean he made his entrance and I was like “oh dang...” But it was when he was walking around naked that I really began to love him like immediately. When he talked to the Drive-thru statue like “Father?” I was done. He has been m precious cinnamon bun son ever since and I will fight for his protection with my life. 
9. What’s your favorite season?
I don’t care if I catch flack for it, right now my favorite season is season 13. I REALLY enjoyed that season.Season 4 is a close second.
10. What’s your least favorite season?
As much as I love Soulless!Sam for the wonderful work out scene he gave us, I didn’t really care for season 6 all that much. There were good episodes in the season, no lie, but it wasn’t my favorite.
11. Opinions on Destiel?
I don’t ship it. Others are free to and you can ask anyone who I know who ships it, and that’s quite a few people who I am friends with, I don’t bash ships that I don’t ship. I am respectful of their ship, but I do not ship it. I see them as best friends, brothers even, but not as lovers. But that’s the thing about media, everyone is open to their own interpretations of it. And that is mine.
12. Do you believe Supernatural queerbaits?
I think, and I say this as someone who loves Misha, Misha mostly queerbaits, but not intentionally, probably because he jokes around with the fandom about Destiel, but I don’t think the show does it as much as some people say it does. I think it’s mostly because I don’t see the ship that I don’t consider guys having deep conversations or relying on each other as signs that they are in love. I don’t know, but that’s just me. 
13. Seasons 1-7 or 8-14?
8-14. What? I said it.
14. Favorite villain (plot wise)?
I really liked Azazael. 
15. Do you think they should end the Lucifer plot line?
I don’t think they really can... at least in the way we think they can. Lucifer is supposed to be the embodiment of evil, but in the show, he is that and so much more. However, there will always need to be the embodiment of evil in terms of symbolism. Even if God isn’t around, he isn’t dead. I don’t think Lucifer really CAN die because so many people believe in him, even if it’s not the kind of belief he wants.
16. Who do you think has gone through more trauma (Sam, Dean, or Cas)?
I think Sam and Dean have gone through more trauma than Cas has, just because Cas has lived a LOT LONGER THAN THEY HAVE so in the scope of who has endured the most in their lifetime, Cas spent the majority of his life in heaven, which was rigid, but not that bad. Sam and Dean have had trauma as a best friend since six months after Sam was born. Between Sam and Dean, I actually think Sam has suffered a great deal, I mean he was in Hell longer, he was tortured by the devil that whole time and probably had to witness Adam getting tortured by Michael as well. BUT, does that mean I think Dean’s trauma isn’t valid? Hell no. Dean has a lot of trauma as well. I think it’s a matter of perspective because obviously, as we are invested in these characters and this show, we are gonna say our favorite brother has suffered the most, but you gotta love them both.
17. What’s your favorite Supernatural episode?
Any episodes having to do with the GhostFacers. I Know What You Did Last Summer (ahem >.>), Party On Garth, A Most Holy Man... Oh, I was supposed to pick one? The Fuck, I can’t PICK ONE.
I 18. Do you like case episodes?
OF COURSE. I LOVED Advanced Thanatology.
19. Who do you relate most to in TFW?
At this point? Honestly, Cas, lmfao. LISTEN, HE JUST WANTS HIS FRIENDS TO BE HAPPY AND OKAY AND I SUPPORT THAT.  
20. Why do you like Supernatural?
I know it’s apparently an unpopular opinion but I actually still like the show for both the characters AND the plot. God forbid we enjoy the plot anymore, lol. I started watching Supernatural because I was interested in its premise. I kept watching it because it was interesting and there were ghosts and demons and ghouls and the guys being hot was a major plus. I also kept watching because I became invested in the story and the brothers and I am still invested in the story and the brothers. As well as the other characters. I am invested in the Winchester family, those who are blood-related and non-blood related. It just is what it is.
21. If you could bring back one character and kill off another who would they be?
I actually would love to see Jess brought back? Just so we could see Sam’s reaction to it after 14 years. Or Jo and Ellen. OR KEVIN. I wanna see Kevin and Jack bond tbh. Could you imagine Kevin showing Jack memes? Just like imagine that for a moment. As for killing someone off... I honestly don’t know... I have to think on this... Hmm... I guess Nick? Have Lucifer put him out of his misery so he has full control of the vessel? I DON’T KNOW. I can’t think of anyone I want to kill off.
