imagine showing thomas sanders PDA and August with no other context and asking him to guess what happened before and in between

you are speaking curses into my inbox!!!

I know part of why Brian is trying not to be with Auggie is not wanting to cause even more grief. Hypothetically, if he hadn't met Auggie, would he have been willing to take a fae/immortal partner as some point? Or is ANY potential grief too big of a risk to him?

Oh no no no. An immortal partner would be even worse, then he'd be dying on them as well as the rest of the family. Brian has been swanning through teenage nymph parties, the handsome human Storyteller, sending everybody into pining titters and is entirely unaware of this

Tbh germ theory DOES sound crazy. Like if you told a regency-era nobleman that tiny creatures lived on the surface of everything and THAT’S what causes consumption, they’d be like “ah, I see you are a lunatic. Would you reside in my hermitage? Rantings and ravings do so amuse my guests”

But if you told a Medieval person this they would probably go "Ah, so when the miasma settles on surfaces it gains evil life. I understand."

Yeah, actually, it would probably be pretty easy to explain germ theory to a Medieval person as tiny evil spirits that live on everything, but they can be purified by soap and water, or by alcohol, because that is why God has granted us those things. And because they can float in the air, if you cough or sneeze after they have infested you, that can cause them to infest others. And when you are sick, the angels God has deputized to defend the bodies of His beloved children are at war with the evil spirits, and, sadly, sometimes they lose, but the best way to help your angels win their battle is to rest, drink plenty (this would probably be small beer in this time period, not water, because the water was also infested), stay clean, and for the sake of God do not allow anyone to let your blood, for the angels need that blood in their war against the evil spirits. Bloodletting is good for some types of illnesses but not the kinds caused by the tiny evil spirits.

boiling as a sterilization measure is also easy to explain. water returns to the air when heated and it rises as steam back up to the floodgates of heaven; we know God created the world in seven days, He's not up there making more water every time it rains. it circulates. the returning of water to heaven also purifies the water of unclean and malign influences. you know wormy water from a muddy puddle will kill your kid. you know you wouldn't wade into a bog and have a slurp. water that remains in the low places of earth absorbs all that is unclean from our waste and it may also sponge up new diseases from hell, we're not totally sure about that one, but it seems likely. God set up the heavenly water cycle so that the earth's waters wouldn't totally fill up with gunk.

what does this have to do with boiling your surgical tools? well look, the boiling water releases bubbles of steam which carries the malign influences up to heaven. you boil a knife, you send all the miasmic particles off with the steam to heaven. if you rinse the knife off in a bucket the water isn't hot enough, the particles go into the water and then right back on to the knife. you gotta boil it to get the particles all the way away. how can a tool or rag or a bed have miasmic particles on it when you can't smell them? humans have a lousy sense of smell. look at your dog on the hunt. are there no rabbits in the woods just because you can't smell them? we know that miasma is carried on the air, and is what makes stench so dangerous, and we know that humans can't smell worth a damn compared to dogs cats horses etc. a dog can smell if a rat died in a corner of the room last week. you can't. do you think licking the spot where the rat died is going to go well for you? luckily, what humans lack in snout we make up for in brains. we have extra brains where our sniffers should have been. God set that up for a reason.

and why does a rinse with wine spirits work? man, look how fast alcohol evaporates. my guess is that because wine contains a lot more vice than water, it evaporates a whole lot faster, in sort of an equal and opposite way that a rock falls faster than a feather. if you want the miasmic particles to get off there FAST, you dunk it in something that's going back to heaven at a gallop.

what's up with honey? it just preserves things against corruption. doesn't clean them off. honey doesn't evaporate at all. probably because bees don't sin. it's not good for ridding a tool of particles-- it's sticky-- but fine for preserving anything you don't want to go to heaven OR hell. this is why you wash the wound with wine spirits or purified water FIRST, to sluice the miasma out, then slap the honey on AFTER. and boil the damn bandage, too. you wouldn't put a rotten door in a sound doorframe and expect it to keep out bandits, would you? cmon.

roman being wrong is even more frustrating because logan grew up with him and also he can lie, so he knows hes just doing it to be a little shit and egg virgil on (who is at the very least completely sincere in his wild insane takes)

i cannot stress enough that this is how the fischer-gage family 100% literally thinks of disease and hygeine. they have a hymn to eve that lasts 20 seconds and they recite it during hand washing and they think the hand washing doesnt work as well unless they sing it. they consider bleach a sacred substance and use it like any other magic substance in spells. silver and copper DO sterilize their contents and they firmly believe this is because the substances are inherently magic

complete science-magic synchronization. may has a blessing for correct measurements on her metric scale. roman holds metal in fires with bare hands to sterilize it.

I feel like the fandom at large has not done enough with the idea that many species of snake den up, brumate, or hibernate communally.

Where are all the fics where deep down, despite his surface objections and verbal claims of being touch averse (like, you know, the liar he is), and in spite of the terror being vulnerable around the others inspires, Janus secretly desires to sleep in a huge puppy pile (snake pit) with all the other sides?

I just... What are we even doing?

dndeceit

Like, I know there are plenty of fics where Janus gets cuddled, or where he's dog-piled after a brush with hypothermia (and let me be clear, we can never have too many of those), but I'm talking about a fic where Janus is grappling with this intense, instinctual need to be tangled up in an indistinguishably jumbled mass of other bodies in order to properly relax, while simultaneously dealing with the inescapable fact that he doesn't trust the others enough to let them get that close (and maybe the process of them earning that trust and the snake getting the first night of restful sleep he's had in his life...)

Does anyone else remember a livestream that happened shortly after wtit where quill (iirc) and thomas were talking abt remus in that video and how his and logan's methods work, and quill asked thomas, sort of to the side, "do you wanna talk about what remus had actually written on the 'to do' list?" And they said it so casually it seemed like it was gonna be a joke just to be silly during filming. But then thomas actually paused for several seconds, thinking about it, then said very definitively "no, actually, I don't" and quill seemed kinda surprised but they moved on. I have never forgotten that moment bc what was on that to-do list. What was it Sanders. Why did u think so hard about whether or not u wanted to share it. If it was a jokey thing just for filming or even if it was an in-universe typical remus thing to say abt sex or something gross, then he could've just said it on the livestream no problem. But he didnt say it on the livestream, he had to think if it was something he wanted to share, which means it's not a Joke it's a Secret Thing. What did Remus suggest to Logan that c!Thomas should do that day. What did Remus say that Logan found so overwhelming he didn't even respond to it. And what do u have planned for the story that means that piece of information had to be a secret

logan-sanders-enjoyer

wait because this really interested me (and i would be very curious to have the livestream source if that exists but it's fun to think about regardless) and i went back to the episode to see if there was in fact actual stuff written underneath when remus turns the page, and there is.

knowing this, going back to closeups of the list, the paper is actually quite thin as can be seen in just basic screenshots of it. there's faintly another list behind the updog one.

i don't know the best ways to make text like this clearer, which is part of why i'm posting these screenshots in case anyone else wants to have a go, but just messed around with the levels for a bit and like

that 100% says to reckon with, right?

anyway i may mess around with it a bit more to try and read some of the actual list (harder with the smaller overlapping text) but we know what the title is at least!

[op here] i'm screaming crying kissing you on the mouth THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS!!!!!!!!!! YOU HAVE NO IDEA WHAT THIS MEANS TO MEEEEEEEEE i have literally thought abt the livestream SO much in the past 5 years (unfortunately it's not on patreon anymore i don't think, the livestreams collection only goes back as far as May 2022 and this one was probably July 2021) ((unless it just shows the livestreams from when you joined the patreon, in which case someone who's had it since the beginning might be able to check if they still have th July 2021 livestream saved?)) AND THEN U WENT THE EXTRA MILE AND FOUND THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!! this is so fucking major as a remus stan we are SO fucking winning!!!!!!! i loveeee a remus that is the only one who will say the shit that c!thomas and the rest of them either can't or won't admit THAT'S MY GUY!!!! THAT'S MY NO BULLSHIT CUT TO THE CHASE STOP HIDING YOUR SHAME GUY!!!!!! and PLEASE if u do manage to find anything from the rest of the list PLEASE add it to this post too bc i need to be up to date w all of this excellent fucking research

I love this fandom so much. This is unhinged. We are speaking the same easter egg seeking rewatching untill memorized language of media consumption.

I think it's a shame that "Oedipus complex" refers to fucking your mom instead of the actual point of his story, fulfilling your destiny through your attempts to avoid it. It just so happens his destiny was to fuck his mom

charyou-tree

Yeah, I don’t know what Freud was thinking, but Oedipus very much did Not want to fuck his mom. He spent the entire play trying to avoid that, and then gauged out his eyes when he learned that he had anyway.

lachonk

I think Freud was too caught up with the fantasy of fucking his mom to appreciate the themes of the story tbh
