Bisonās gaze is piercing as he looks at Kant. āYou have to understand what youāre asking me. Heās a child. Heāll be stuck a child forever. He wonāt get to have friends or a normal life. Everything youāve worked so hard to protect him from, his innocence youāve worked so hard to preserve, it wonāt matter. He will have to hurt people, to kill them, he will be a monster,ā Bison explains firmly.
Kant shakes his head. āHeāll be like you. Youāre not a monster.ā
Or.
Kant asks Bison to turn Babe.
everyone has a ship thats just: theyre perfect. they hate each other. theyre married. they havent spoken in 15 years. they have date nights three times a week. theyre divorced. theyre pining, its unrequited. its requited. theyre starcrossed. theyre meant to be. theyre doomed by the narrative. they love each other. theyve never held hands. they wont stop making out at parties. they cant look each other in the eye
crazy aye expression here i know everyone has said it before but its crazy. hes sooo in love with akk and so disarmed by akk making the first move. puts my head in my hands.
I tend to hc them as being younger when they get adopted by Lilly bc I think this makes the whole āfamilyā dynamic even more awful š + doodles of the baby brudders
i will be a bitch & say it i have no compassion for woman who reject feminism. it might be YOUR CHOICE to believe that women are fragile & need to protected or are helpless lil creatures of whatever the fuck but the moment you start imposing those ideologies on other women is when you're done for me. you may like your cage & fuck you or good for you for it ig but stop dragging other women down when we are genuinely trying our damnedest to dismantle this patriarchal world. this specially applies to terfs you're all fucking traitors.
akk being like "i thought we were gonna..... never mind <3" and then not being able to stop smiling as aye is like we were gonna what. akk. akk. finish the sentence. kill me kill me kill me theyre so fucking cute
I saw a post on a terf blog before I blocked it from someone being like "Ummm is anybody else really concerned about the rise of antisocial kinks like pissing" and it made me laugh so hard I almost did a little antisocial kink myself
So much happened in 3x06 that Louisā nuke of also being a victim of incestual abuse almost slipped past me. Are we suppose to pretend that Louis getting paid by a family member to sexually assault him doesnāt recontextualize literally everything? His view on sexual violence? Why he went into the sex work industry and started running brothels in the first place?
Did none of the other Du Lacs know about this? Was he told not to tell anyone? Or, worse, did his parents know and he was still told not to tell anyone to uphold the illusion of an upstanding family? Does this have any bearing on why he used to be so reserved and tight lipped about his vulnerabilities? Does this add another layer as to why he used to recoil from his own sexuality, beyond the political landscape and his religious upbringing?
Does this play a role in his desperation to be seen as a good son and good brother and overall good family man, after being a victim of incest? And getting paid for it? What effect did this have on the way he views profit and exploitation? On the way he views himself? On the way he bases so much of his identity & self worth on his ties to other people?
Screaming from the rooftops that Louis was paid to be sexually abused by a family member! Was this a single event? Did this happen several times? How old was he??

After graduating from university, Akk wants to spend some time with his parents before wading into a new life in Bangkok. The last thing he expects while he's staying in his hometown is to run into the ex-boyfriend he never really got over: Ayan.
I can't fight the curse of having too many ideas except by starting new WIPs before finishing the old ones, apparently, so here. have some angst, friends.
The Taming of the Shrew Parallels in The Heart Killers (Masterpost - Show Order)
So, a handful of people have mentioned wanting to see the parallels I've made in specific orders, so I've decided to make two masterposts placing the parallels in order of how they happen in the show vs how they happen in the play. This post is in the order of the show, and you can click here to find the post in the order of the play. To note, there are a few parallels that include scenes from multiple episodes and those will be listed under all of the episodes used in them. There are also several of these that I've written more in depth comparisons for and provided more play context for, and I'll also list those alongside the parallels! All of these parallels can be found in my thk x ttots tag. And with that, the list is under the cut!
