#cdth hennessy

[crimeronan]

that post about unpleasant women in media made me need to make a venn diagram about cersei lannister, skyler white, and cdth hennessy. so i just learned how to use canva for the first time.

here are some reasons you might be able to hate 1 or 2 of these women without Necessarily being a misogynist. (you MUST hate male characters for the Same Exact Reasons, though.)

preemptive note: i am Aware this is imperfect and that there's more overlap and distinction than is presented here, ie cersei is arguably Also a textbook emotional abuser, cersei is also an unpleasant complainer, etc, etc, etc. just. play in this space with me. Pls.

jst. allow me to shitpost about my three favorite unpleasant women in any media ever. Observe.

Ronan: If I had a reoccurring nightmare I simply would not bring a copy of myself from it. Rip to Hennessy but I'm different

So is Ronan’s tattoo a result of dreaming like Hennessys is or?

anyone feeling threatened by hennessy and ronan’s friendship in cdth is a coward and i want no part in that nonsense, goodbye.

an extremely small selection of rock/metal music that i find ronan & hennessy as Fuck

this is not an actual playlist because the songs have no overlapping central theme or sound or journey.  the things they have in common are that 

they give me dopamine 

they make me think of ronan and hennessy’s friendship & narrative

they’re not too horrifically edgy to admit to in public

-

i’m alive - shinedown

legendary - welshly arms

angel with a shotgun - the cab

paradise (what about us?) - within temptation

dangerous - zayde wolf

burn it down - skillet

let the flames begin - paramore

where the skies end - starset

particularly choice lyrics under the cut:

i’m alive - shinedown

so you were six feet underneath me

i felt a pulse, i swear you moved

and digging deep deep down i recognized how much you had to lose

and if you wanna get out of here, wanna get out of here, save yourself

but you’ll never get anywhere, never get anywhere, not without my help

i’m alive, i’m alive when you’re dead inside

i’m a slap in the face to your lullaby

got you all tongue tied ‘cause you’re living a lie my friend, say it with me

i’m alive, i’m alive when you’re dead inside

i’m your wakeup call and you know i’m right

so make a move, let it bleed, tear your heart off your sleeve

but i’m the only one who’s gonna save your life

legendary - welshly arms

take a look around me, taking pages from a magazine

been looking for the answers ever since we were seventeen

you know the truth can be a weapon to fight this world of ill intention

a new answer to the same question - how many times will you learn the same lesson?

i think they got it all wrong

and we just gotta hold on and on and on and on

cause we’re gonna be legends, gonna get their attention

what we’re doing here ain’t just scary, it’s about to be legendary

angel with a shotgun - the cab

get out your guns, battle’s begun - are you a saint or a sinner?

if love’s a fight then i shall die with my heart on a trigger

they say before you start a war you’d better know what you’re fighting for

well, baby you are all that i adore

if love is what you need a soldier i will be

i’m an angel with a shotgun, fighting til the war’s won, i don’t care if heaven won’t take me back

i’ll throw away my faith, babe, just to keep you safe

don’t you know you’re everything i have?

paradise (what about us?) - within temptation

you and us, or i and them, there comes a time to take a stand

the wheel is watching all, it keeps on burning

the venom works, it’s like a curse - a trojan horse, when will we learn?

the wheel embodies all that keeps returning

all in all, you’d expect the wise to be wiser, fallen from grace 

and all in all i guess we should’ve known better ‘cause

what about us? isn’t it enough though we’re not in paradise?

this is who we are, this is what we’ve got

no it’s not our paradise, but it’s all we want and it’s all that we’re fighting for

dangerous - zayde wolf

i’m pulling back the wires that been holding me up like liars

step out of my way now, step out of my way now

i’m coming through the window, been shaking off all these shadows

step out of my way now, step out of my way now

no, we ain’t like them, no no, we ain’t like them

you’re gonna catch us walking on the edge

we be living so dangerous, we be living so dangerous

i like how it makes me feel, i like how it makes me feel

burn it down - skillet

do you ever feel your colors are fading, like your world might combust?

do the voices in your head make you crazy when they’re the only ones you trust?

well it’s over it’s over it’s over, i won’t be pushed around

move over move over move over, get back or just get out

set this plane up in flames

it’s over it’s over it’s over

it’s time to burn it down

this one goes to the castaways who break their backs slaving every day

all these things i can do without, gotta burn it down, burn it down

let the flames begin - paramore

somewhere weakness is our strength and i’ll die searching for it

i can’t let myself regret such selfishness

my pain and all the trouble caused, no matter how long

i believe that there’s hope buried beneath it all and hiding beneath it all and growing beneath it all and

this is how we’ll dance when, when they try to take us down

this is how we’ll sing, oh

this is how we’ll stand when, when they burn our houses down

this is what we’ll be, oh glory

where the skies end - starset

we won’t just fall away - we weren’t just born to fade

our stories are past the horizon, we’re chasing the sun til we find them

goodbye to what we made, no matter anyway

we’re climbing until we transcend higher and higher to where the skies end

these are the dreams of our fathers, there’ll be no wishing on stars

we are the sons and the daughters, let them come test who we are

can you hear me? you’re a goliath to me

i’ll be there when the guns break out til the storm is over

lay your burdens on me, i’ll be there when your fate runs out

you’ll be on my shoulders

The most “what does it all mean???” moment in MI for me was the relatively mundane fact of Hennessy dreaming Jordan without memories of Jay. Like there’s something there about breaking cycles of trauma but I feel like there’s a lot more going on and just. What does it mean???
