Stuff and Thangs...

I haven’t really said my views on what is possibly going to happen on the show so I figured I’d say my two cents on it. Both with what happened during SDCC, and the recent spoilers that we’ve heard and how it can tie into the comics. Keep in mind, spoilers below, and most likely a long ass summary of my thoughts b/c I can’t do it differently XD.

Sorry I just wanted to interrupt your dash with my favourite Daryl Dixon

i.e. the one who is looking at Carol.

fourthwall-break

Just my two cents regarding the whole Caryl / C@rzekiel situation (contains spoilers):

- The sneak peek from last night broke my heart, but after taking a little step back I think it may not be as bad as I thought. The reason for this is Daryl’s whole behaviour, his mouth was saying “I’m happy for you” but his body language sure as hell did not. I know Daryl is not the most expressive guy in the world and even if he were truly happy he would not have been jumping up and down from hapiness or smile from ear to ear BUT he would at least be smiling, we’ve seen happy Daryl before - for like 3 seconds a hundred years ago I agree - and the Daryl from the sneak happy sure as hell didn’t look happy. He was not smiling, he was being sarcastic towards Zeke and remember his face in the trailer as she leans on him ? He winced as if he were in pain. Maybe there is more to this conversation, maybe there is not, maybe she leans on him right after he says she deserves to be happy and that’s it, I guess we’ll see.

- Now why would he say that he is happy for her ? I think it’s simply because Daryl is the most selfless guy in the world. He would never put Carol in such position where she would have to chose btw him and Zeke (also because in all his blindness he probably thinks he does not stand a chance and that he does not deserve her - pookie is so wrong) I also think that he is genuinely happy for her because that’s how much he loves her I think, let’s never forget that whatever this is between them it’s unconditional and unselfish (remember how he wanted her back in s7 but still lied so she would stay behind and have the peace she wanted back then?) . So in the end I’m not surprised, I feel it would have been ooc for Daryl to say something like “ya shouldn’t be with him,ya should be with me” Besides, Carol did seem happy

- Now is she truly happy ? I honestly think part of her is and I’m ok with it because I love her even if this happiness is related to someone other than Daryl. Please do not get mad at me for saying this but I think she is living something good at the Kingdom, with Zeke and with Henry. I’m not saying that’s what I want for her but if that’s what she wants then who am I to disagree ? Now what’s the purpose of her relationship with Zeke.. ? Plot-wise I think it is all about selling Zeke’s future death, this relationship is a tool for future drama. I wish he didn’t have to die, he is a good guy but I think it’s going to happen and Carol will be in revenge mode. I also think she will get over it and it was foreshadowed last season: “It always feels like it could just be swept away again. But that doesn’t mean it will, and and it doesn’t mean that I couldn’t find myself again if it does.” She is gonna get back on her feet like the queen she is because the only person she cannot lose is still going to be around. Because I truly believe that it doesn’t matter where she lives or who she is with, Daryl will always be the most important person in her life, he’s the one, some of us have known this person in our lives where it does not matter who we are with it’s never going to be as good, as epic as when we were with THAT person, we’ll never be as happy. Which is maybe why she is with Zeke, she can lose him. I’m not saying she does not love him, I think she does but he is not her epic love, he is an easy choice. He’s nice, he’s kind of funny and he loves her. And it’s like she said, after Ed, who wouldn’t want that ? Now you could tell me that Daryl is also the easy choice because they’re made for each other so everything should make sense and I would agree with you but this is TWD and the writers love drama and ambiguity… (they suck I know) The writers and AMC know that people want Caryl and they’re gonna keep teasing so people keep tuning in until it does happen (terribly wrong move because they’re losing viewers but they are imbeciles so…) I think that’s why you’ll never hear them tell each other “you my bro” “you’re my bff” they’re going to keep the “will they / won’t they” alive for as long as they can… Which takes me to my next point…

- That shit ain’t platonic, even the sneak peek isn’t. She called him pookie, that’s pretty flirty to me. And then we know she is going to lean on him and hold his arm. Plus their similarity was also underlined with the fact that they both cannot sleep, this is a reminder of everything they’ve been through together. Remember what Mel said about how nobody else shares the story between them ? It’s a tight thing between these two and the writers reminded us that last night. If they wanted to sink our ship they wouldn’t have caryl acting so ambiguously.

- I’m still team Carol, I’ve seen a lot of hate towards her but I just want to say that I am not going to turn my back on her because she is not with Daryl. Some people think she has changed, I disagree, I think she is trying to live a happy life, unfortunately we all know that’s not going to last but she is allowed to try the way she wants to. She is not doing anything wrong imo

- I also think it’s very telling about the “unimportance” of this new relationship that they already spoiled it. They never did this before. This choice prooves the short-lived quality of the whole thing.

So all in all I think they’re just trying to create more drama, for Carol to sell Z’s death and for Caryl because they’re the couple everyone wants to see and they think it’s genius to make us wait - even if it’s wrong, even if it is exhausting and painful for us. I’m just gonna keep in mind this quote from Love Actually and choose to believe in it:

“the thing about romance is people only get together right at the very end”

Of course all of this is just my opinion and a way for me to exteriorise how I feel, maybe I’m completely mistaken on everything. Also I know we all have a lot of feelings right now but let’s please just agree to disagree ♡

Caryl is burning, but ain’t ashes

That Caryl night scene, is a bit like the bus scene back in S2.

“Pretty romantic, Screw around?” I don’t think Daryl ever forget this moment, it even flashback when he almost met the Lucile.

But it’s too late for him to say anything, blessing is the only thing he can say.

Yes, he wants her happy, since the beginning, that’s why he risked his life went to search for her daughter, that’s why he gave her Cherokee Rose to cheer her up and always give hopes to her.

They have many things to say but they don’t have chance, it’s too late, too late.

They have to hide their feelings deep in the heart and give fate smiles to each other.

But when Carol rest her head on his shoulder, their eyes exposed their feels, the tears and sadness, their hearts are closed but keep each other deep inside.

Rewatch the scene, it’s not an end, not that simple.

Yep there’s alot we haven’t seen yet from the moment when Daryl tells Carol she deserves to be happy until the moment she puts her head on his shoulder. There’s more to this scene & I hope it gives us a little hope that they’ll be together someday. I truly believe we are either gonna see a love triangle or Zeke dies & then Caryl happens. By us not seeing Carol & Zeke’s first kiss is a huge indication that the writers are playing down their relationship. They will have already been in a relationship in the Season 9 premiere so the way they got together was basically “off camera”. THAT was deliberate so that Carylers would not have to see it. I’m sure TPTB don’t want to lose more viewers than they already have & they are aware there’s a lot of us still tuning in in hopes that our favorite couple become canon. I can’t see them wanting Carol & Zeke as the new power couple when Daryl & Carol are the last 2 originals left & they have admitted to being in a slow-grow relationship all these years. It’s obvious they will go canon eventually.

Hmmmmm…

I don’t see Carylers melting down. I see us affirming our love for the ship while also expressing our opinions.

One thing I’m very pleased about is that Hardwick won’t be hosting this preview special. I’d much rather have Yevette there, plus I feel like she’ll keep things on track and won’t let anyone get out of hand or let it become the dudebro hour. I can’t count the number of cringing moments I’ve had in the past watching talking dead when hardwick was there.

It’s over..

So comicbook.com just saw a sneekpeek of the scene we saw of Daryl and Carol leaning against each other in the moonlight. And sadly it’s a scene of her getting his approval over how much she loves Zeke, which of course outside of calling the King corny, he is quite happy that Carol is in love and so smitten smh. Dude it’s hurtful and it sucks, I am so glad I tapped out after Carl died, I still held out hope that one day it would happen but it was a game, it was for views. They took our hearts and fucked with them, they know the whole world was in love with Carol and Daryl yet they wrote themselves into a hole. Thanks to all my fellow shippers who have made the last 8 years so AMAZING, we have fought wars to together (TD, BGWP and had to endure ChaCha who is gloating her ass off of course 😡) and we have stood by as we were toyed with again and again yet remained diligent and faithful. It’s been nice serving as a dedicated follower on this ship. But this is my official resignation..Take care Ladies and Gents! ❤️ and Caryl on in your hearts forever

It’s Ok.

Devoting yourself to something you like wasn’t a waste. There was joy in that. The things you did were great. The things you saw were awesome. The things you heard were delightful. The people who shared that time with you were worth every minute and resource that you invested.

And, it’s ok for it to be over. If it’s ended, you don’t need to lose that stuff. It’s yours. It’s all yours. It’s all yours already. That greatness and awesomeness and delight and wonder are yours.

you know what, caryl has always been too good for twd. they can say all they want that romance would’ve ruined the relationship, that they kept it “real” (by…um, having them interact once a season wow such brilliant much stellar writing that’s how you portray a “””””””REAL”””””””””” relationship by all means *applause*), but really, all that shows us is that norman, angela kang, gimple, and everyone else involved has not the faintest idea what a healthy romantic relationship really is. the fact that they claim their intention is to portray carol and daryl as best friends, as each other’s person, as two people who will always have each other’s back - but they clearly think romance would ruin that? that is very fucked up. because romance between carol and daryl would have been beautiful - it would have been more beautiful than any other romantic relationship on the because of the foundation that was already there. romance would have done the exact opposite of ruin this beautiful thing; it would have enhanced it and made it even more beautiful. the fact that tptb view romance as something that would ruin this relationship rather than something that would have completed it… the fact that tptb seem to think that romance is something that ruins a friendship rather than something that makes it even stronger…the fact that tptb don’t seem to know that your significant other should be your person, should be your best friend, and should always have your back… the fact that they refuse to acknowledge that anyone with any grasp on common sense could see that carol and daryl would have had one of the most beautiful romantic relationships ever… well this tells us a lot about the people who are in charge of the show and it is a tragedy that this relationship fell into the hands of people who don’t even know what romance is and couldn’t begin to be competent enough handle it. it is a damn shame but caryl has always been too good for the people who don’t have the brain capacity to understand it.

caryl will forever belong to us, the fans, the people who do understand and appreciate it. this beautiful relationship is ours and it is completely twd’s loss.

Reedus wouldn’t know a healthy relationship if it slapped him in the face. He is such a disappointment. The term “Man-child” comes to mind when I think of the bs that comes out of his mouth. Most times I wish Daryl was portrayed by someone else.

To my anon:

Ok so yes I think nr is pure trash and fake af, I LOATHE the man but unless there is something I missed, (and I admit to not paying that much attention to what all has been said this weekend) I didn’t see anything where he said he was happy caryl is never gonna happen.

I saw this:

Which was him saying he’s glag they didn’t have then hook up early on, something he’s said before and actively fought against.

We know what’s coming so anything he says doesn’t really matter.

Its my opinion that he’ll be perfectly ok with playing a love interest to a 20 something actress and his main reason for fighting caryl was Melissa’s age, his Peter pan fixation and him just generally being like most men, a disgusting sack of shit that wants to bang women young enough to be his daughter.

But that’s just my opinion based on my view of who he is, not based on anything he has said.

For all the shit khary gets from some carylers at least he has always viewed Carol as a sexually desirable being. (And no I don’t ship it and yes I know he made a reference to zeke wanting to get laid on three occasions. I found it as distasteful as all the many times Norman also made crude comments and gestures about Carol.) but for real, the man has waxed poetics about Carol and Mel for two years now.

Norman on the other hand has never really viewed Carol as a sexually desirable being. Maybe because of his own preferences, maybe because as I already said, he’s a typical douchebag middle aged man fighting a receding hairline and a mid life crisis.maybe because he still sees Daryl as a lone wolf (HA) alpha (SNORT) bad boy (ROLLING MY EYES SO HARD I HAVE A HEADACHE).

Regardless of what I think his motives are, it doesn’t change the fact we saw what we saw on screen, the show sucks donkey balls and while I liked the scene in the trailer, I’m not gonna be fooled again. I haven’t watched more than a handful (I think I’ve watched maybe 6 or 7) eps in the last three seasons combined. I don’t plan to watch the show anymore and habe mostly moved on except for a few reblogs of fix, fan art and gifs, because I do still love the ship for what it was and what it could have been.

I despise the man and look forward to a time when my dash is blissfully untainted by his presence.
