#d20 tula

[raguonmynieceandnephew]

Ok, I know we are all excited about the news and all but i feel like i need to give this as a PSA:

Don't be fucking weird.

As a nosy bitch myself, i empathize with the curiosity. I mean, we all wanna know all the deets and all the gossip and such, and I know we have all been waiting for this moment since that Game Changer episode, but, as a reminder, NO INFORMATION ABOUT BRENNAN AND IZZY'S CHILD IS ANY OF Y'ALL'S BUSSINESS.

The babies gender, name, NOTHING. Don't bother them, you are a STRANGER. THEY DON'T KNOW YOU. YOU ARE NOT THEIR FRIENDS OR FAMILY. SHUT UP. The internet is a weird, cursed land and any parent would be wise to not let their infant's image come close to it with a 20 mile pole. Celebrate the news from your place. Be happy for them and for this new stage of their life and ZIP IT.

Anyways, congratulations Brennan and Izzy! Your child won the fucking lottery, you are gonna be amazing parents!

just to throw my own theory in the mix here:

the "not the bear, but the bear is a stand in" thing that tula is remembering is one of two things:

1. Tula trying to heal Geoffrey and failing. Trying her best to save her husband's heart, losing her own in the process (since she took damage from healing the bear's disease, i believe).

or

2. Geoffrey healing Tula, giving up his own heart and life to give her just enough life to take care of the kids.

either way i'm sobbing.

Can’t stop thinking about this post and it’s implications.

I know it’s a joke but HAVE we seen Tula eat? She’s always making sure her family, her children are fed, but I don’t remember any explicit mention of her taking any food for herself. We know she almost never sleeps, and it’s been laughed off as her being a single mom that works two jobs.

But how horrifying is it to learn that in order to keep up the momentous task of being a single mother, you literally have to climb out of your grave and just keep going? That when you have children, not even death stops your devotion and the subsequent responsibilities. She is the perfect mom not in spite of being dead but because she is, because she has no physical needs of her own to tend to

She's trying to find her fiend-like kids in the tall grass. She's very alive and normal while doing it.

So I've already posted this as a reblog to one of my previous posts, but it felt too important to not be posted on it's own.

Jesus fucking Christ, that last 30 minutes, I literally felt my heart drop at Brennan's voice crack. The way he loses himself in his characters is so beautiful yet painful to watch. There is so much power in the love he pours into that fucking stoat and it has genuinely touched me. I know he's praised for his roleplaying abilities all the time, but there is something really special to me about Tula.

I'm South African, and I can understand Zulu. And one of the things that really struck me about Tula is her name. Here the word Thula is used in many contexts, but I've most often seen it being used to soothe people. When someone is upset, angry, distressed, hurt, you would pull them close and whisper "Thula, Thula, Thula." It means be quiet, be peaceful, be still, relax, and it also means I'm here, although that part is normally contextual more than anything. Saying it to someone often comes with loving words and touch, and it's a sign of care. A sign of comfort.

All Tula wants is to keep her children safe, to be there for them, to comfort them, to care for them, to thulisa them. She loves her children with such strong conviction, her love for them is ferocious almost and I feel like her name really suits her character in that way.

All that is to say, I fucking Tula and I fucking love Brennan.
