“The other day we learned a spell for removing rust from bronze statues. Before that, we learned a spell for turning sweet grapes into sour ones… you collect the strangest spells”
THEN USING THE SPELL TO CLEAN HIMMEL’S STATUE 😭😭😭😭
And the next episode casually dropping the fact that Eisen loved sour grapes, “the more sour the better” 💔💔💔💔💔
Me realizing that she will spend months to years working for these silly spells, because they remind her of her friends
long live the era of girls casting spells (non-isekai version)
Love me, that's all i ask of you...
Can't believe it's already 2025... I drew this on new year's eve. I just love raoulstine so much!!
watching clips from the 25th anniversary phantom show with sierra boggess as christine and hadley fraser as raoul and i'm absolutely obsessed with how they look at each other in all i ask of you
they look so in love i'm UNWELL about it. raoul is looking at christine like she hung the stars in the sky while christine is looking at him like he's all she's ever needed in her entire life i'm actually CRYING. i'm straight up in tears over this what the fuck is wrong with me????
AND THE SPIN KISS???? IT'S PERFECT.

Spy x family is very very good because there's a bit where a far right terrorist group says that they want to start a war and a main character responds by saying to them "have any of you ever killed anyone before? Have you ever been killed before? Have you ever had a limb torn off by an artillery shell? Have you ever heard the sound of bones shattering? Have you ever smelled the reek of rotting flesh? Have you ever found the crushed bodies of your parents and siblings in a pile of rubble that used to be your home? Have you ever discovered a blown-off piece of your lover stuck to a wall? Have you ever been so hungry that you tried to eat tree bark? Or stewed a pot of human flesh? Have you ever convinced yourself that your enemy was subhuman so you could...slaughter them like animals? Have you ever been so haunted by shame and regret afterwards that you cried until you vomited? Have you ever had friends who did the same, and then took their own lives? Did you learn nothing about war at your university?!"
and that's the same volume where they adopt a dog that can see into the future
Please just look at him for me I just please ok I need him please look at him please
He’s beautiful and hurt and kind and he is in love with her and he is everything to me
My WIP Bartholomew sculpture 💜🖤
Plutarch is driven by his political beliefs, while not developing any empathy for the individuals out of the mass. Whilst Effie cares deeply and easily for every-one, while not really having any strong desires for political change. In this essay, I will be talking about…
"I asked chat gpt" well I asked a moldy old skull and he told me to beat you over the head with that laptop
Never forget that Katniss was so in love with Peeta that she considered him the most fundamentally good person in the world. Peeta Mellark, the guy whose main survival skill was literal manipulation and lying, followed closely by beating people to death with his bare hands. She loved him.
Are you having a good day today?
Let me ruin it for you.
Do you ever think Effie feels guilty about her feelings for Haymitch?
Effie is fundamentally a giver, and love in their strange circumstances is inherently selfish.
She didn't know Lenore Dove personally, but she knew how important she was to Haymitch. And yet, she longs to be that same sunshine for him, lifting him up, motivating him to do better, but she's a harbinger of darkness, dragging him further and further to the bottom of the bottle every year.
And so here she is again, sitting on this train, "fighting" the ghost of a (metaphorically) holy woman for all she knows, with no chance of winning. Because she's not perfect, no matter how hard she tries. She doesn't quite fit into Capitol society, even though she tries, and the people in the districts simply hate her. She has no place anywhere, especially near Haymitch, because she's so selfish that she can't let him go and keeps trying to bring him back to life.
Even though it's slowly killing him.
People: Effie loved being an escort. She was so brainwashed. She probably applied for the job because she thought it was an honor to be an escort, to gain fame and feed her ego.
Effie in the whole SOTR book:
U know, Suzanne didn’t have to develop Effie’s relationship with Haymitch so deeply in sotr. She didn’t have to say, with all the words, how much Effie trusted him to not hurt her, implying a kind of trust that is beyond explanation, due to their short friendship. She didn’t have to say that Effie took care of him during his entire process in the Capitol —from his own Games, all the way to the 75th edition—, and how grateful he was for her. She didn’t have to make the last thing he saw before leaving to his eminent death being her eyes. She didn’t have to use a broken metaphor of geese’s mate to represent the way he saw his relationship with Lenore Dove, knowing perfectly well Geese don’t, in fact, mate for life; but grief for a long time —like Haymitch was doing— before finding another partner. She could have spared us the lore and just sell her tragic romantic story of Haymitch and a Lenore Dove, with no further explanation about Effie, so we wouldn’t question the epilogue as much as we’re doing now.But she didn’t!
She gave us it all, knowing very well the fandom she was working with. Knowing that ever since the first book was released —a decade ago—, we never stopped coming up with more analysis. That we kept overthinking about the tinniest details from the books, creating a stronger understanding about the characters. Knowing she wouldn’t get away with the incorrect geese metaphor…we would see though it
There is no way you are looking at all of this and saying we got less material for Hayffie than before…
She really said “they are not mine…but i know they are yours and i won’t take them away from you”
Effie and Katniss joined the games with the idea of saving their little sisters
Peeta and Haymitch joined the games with the idea of saving the girls they loved
no but u don't understand. if anything sotr made hayffie that much more tragic. think of effie, eldest daughter trying to make herself invisible, but goes out of her way from helping her sister, by treating the tributes with respect, sending haymitch off to his games with dignity and a promise to deliver his token for him to his love.
think of effie, trying to hide within the shadows once haymitch won, not seeking credit nor attention for her part, but always within distance of his cage, always within a watchful eye in case anything goes wrong and there's anything she can do.
think of effie, who saw the way and how much haymitch loved and lost, knowing full well her desire to care for him is limited only to their meetings during the games every year, as they lose and lose more children to the games.
think of effie, always thinking of haymitch, quietly hoping against the capitol's teachings, that one day haymitch will get better and be okay, and maybe even open himself up for love once again.
think of effie, the capitol girl who rooted for the rascal, the escort who yearned for the lonely drunk.
The whole songbird and snake part of tbosas is interesting to me. Because when you start reading the book you’re thinking ‘oh, sure, so the guy who’s been consistently associated with snakes in the trilogy is going to be the snake, and his love interest is going to be the songbird’. Snakes eat songbirds, easy symbolism all around.
And then you meet Lucy Gray, and she’s just put a snake down someone’s dress. And immediately you have to reassess. And you figure out that it’s a little more complicated — they’re both the songbird, and they’re both the snake, but whereas Lucy Gray is associated with wild animals she befriends in the woods, Coriolanus is associated with Capitol mutts he first meets in a lab. Gaul’s rainbow snakes, the jabberjays.
And then the plot thickens even deeper, right, because it turns out the snakes represent their methods. They’re both cunning, good at improvising, not apposed to lying and performing when need be. They get each other! They click with each other, really well and really easily, because of that synergy in how they work with each other! SC isn’t saying that being ‘snakelike’ is bad or evil in and of itself. She’s cautioning you to think about what you’re using those methods for.
Because the songbirds, those are about their ideals. Lucy Gray, like her songbirds, wants to sing what she likes, treasure her freedom, and care for her family and whoever else she can in Twelve. Those are her highest ideals. But Coriolanus? He’s like his jabberjays. Free him, put him in the wild where he has the space to think for himself, and he’ll still only want to sing what the Capitol tells him to. He’ll still fly for a Capitol cage at the first opportunity. And he’ll still use his voice against the people living in Twelve at every chance he gets. It’s what the Capitol made him for, after all, and old habits die hard.
shout out to suzanne collins for, in the middle of Everything Else she was doing in sotr, dropping a paragraph that’s just “btw fuck ai”
