Have Come,

Am Here

It's my 17 year anniversary on Tumblr 🥳

[ashtun]

I’m imagining them rounding a corner, and we’re all blood-soaked, and I’m wearing your face, and they’re like, “Whose face is that?” And I’m like, “The last person who fucked with us.” And that’s just feeling like a really powerful image to me.

Messaging people for the first time is so hard. What am I supposed to say? Like, "You seem really odd and your blog intrigues me. Do you want to have philosophical conversations or perhaps talk about fictional characters?" What! Whatever. I will just follow you back and stare at your blog with my big beautiful brown eyes.

Reblog if you're okay with people coming into your DMs with the "you seem really odd and your blog intrigues me, do you want to have philosophical conversations or perhaps talk about fictional characters"

These outties are absolutely killing it on the press tour

SEVERANCE (2022) S1 first shot | S2 last shot

Who are you?

[sorrydetka]

“there’s a life to be had here, helly.” “a life to be had?” to “they give us half a life and think we won’t fight for it” “i wanna live with you” pipeline goes crazyyy

[ashtun]

For me it’s S1 pilot “you’re a replacement” to S2 finale “i want to live with you” 😭

[ashtun]

I have no words. This was a masterpiece.

[ashtun]

The way Mark went from S1 "kind eyes" to S2 "devour you whole" is insane

[ashtun]

I wish you would take them raw.

i'm not a snob or anti shipping at all but tbh people treating markhelly and markgemma like a standard tv love triangle is starting to turn into my thirteenth reason

[ashtun]

Let’s just try to enjoy each ship equally. Including markhelena.

He said that he looked into her eyes and he knew that it wasn't her. I understand the facts. I know that she had reams of information about me... and about my life, and about the people close to me. I understand that if she slipped up... that she would have a completely reasonable explanation for it. And I guess to expect you to have seen past that is perhaps asking a little bit too much.

As a Polivia shipper, it was so therapeutic to watch Helly deal with the revelation of the assault with Mark. There are so many similarities but the way things were different was what made it so cathartic.

Helly doesn't have Olivia's complicated emotional baggage, so she's able to immediately work through her feelings and acknowledge the real horror of the situation:

What sucks is that she got to have that and I didn't. That she used me to trick my friends. Used my body to get close to you...It's disgusting.

She doesn't blame Mark, because it's clear who the bad guy is. She doesn't get hung up on the tragedy, because she trusts that Mark's feelings for her were genuine--that it was her he really wanted to be with, not Helena:

You thought it was me...which means you wanted to. With me.

So she's able to move from victimhood to empowerment which allows Mark to do the same and this is how all relationships should work--open communication, rupture and repair, trauma and post-traumatic growth.

I don't want her memory. I want my own. Would you like that? Yes, I'd like that.

Having said that, I will forever hold a special place in my heart for the torture that was Peter and Olivia's trauma-surviving, death-defying, universe-crossing, timeline-resetting love.

SEVERANCE 1x05 | 2x06: Helly R

[akajustmerry]

deah is so correct honestly if Helly/Helena is pregnant, then severance is a bad show. I will just turn it off. if that is the case then I'm forced to conclude this show can't write women in any meaningful way. so what's the point in watching it!!!!!

[ashtun]

I, for one, welcome a pregnancy plot line. The Fringier this show gets, the better. Bring on the babies!
