I may have only watched a total of like 2 hrs of Tf!water yesterday but I am alr obsessed with him and Tf!marm :p
I am going to do a small rant post abt mainly Tf!water and just things I’ve personally noticed so like, bear with me cause I may be delusional lmao.
Okay! Some character things I’ve noticed from Tf!water—
-Water uses writing and his stories to escape from reality. World’s he can manipulate to his own liking. Universes where he gets to control what goes on. A stark contrast to the uncontrollable unpredictability of the rushing rivers and endless seas. I found this parallel interesting :3 Using writing as an escape is always so fun in characters (and something I’ve totally never done because that would be crazy)
-Before water and the Feliz group teleported, water was taking in deep breaths to calm his anxiety and nerves. I also found the parallels to this interesting, because using breathing as a grounding method when you have an irrational fear of water is a cool contrast. If you’re afraid of drowning, even subconsciously, your brain developed taking in deep breaths to calm yourself because it’s a reminder. You are here. Alive. Breathing. Fine for now.
-Water and Marm are inseparable but they also share slightly different mindsets which I find interesting. Water is quick to judge characters and quick to shove people away, only sticking to people he’s already familiar with (in this case marm) for the most part. (SASSY WATERMUNCH WE LOVE YOU FOREVER OMG YOU ARE HILARIOUSLY FUNNY AND AMAZING) While Marm from what I can gleam on the other hand wants to believe the best in people. She isn’t naive by any means, just compared to her brother who can be a little bit pessimistic at times, she seems to have a greater goal in mind, and will work to that goal with a more positive outlook. The world is horrible and she tries to fix it. With water, the world is horrible, and he tries to escape it.
-My next point!! Marm seems to want to fix the world while Water seems to want to escape it. “Aren’t we here to help?” -Marm. “The world is a cruel place” -Water. At the same time though, Water will read the stories he creates to escape reality to his sister, and her sister will travel off to her brother’s fantasies for a while. And Water will come back to reality to try and help his sister fix the world’s problems as well.
-They’ve both been wronged by the world in many different ways, growing up without parents, being bullied etc etc. But they both had different but very similar responses which I find interesting :3
-THE SIBLING BONDDDDD. “If you wrong my sibling I would not hesitate to burn you and this whole place to the ground” -Water and Marm probably. Cause like, when catguy (names?) pushed Marm into the portal and Water then threatened him with a spray bottle and honestly was really scary and mad and pushed him in the portal as well. But then as soon as Marm came out of the mysterious portal, water did a personality turnaround and started to comfort her and asked if she was okay <33 awwwwh. The main question to this is, how far are they willing to go? I mean, pushing someone into the portal as revenge isn’t that bad morally, but if something worse were to happen to marm or vise versa? Would they surpass morals for their sibling? Do things that are objectively wrong and evil, for the benefit of the other? Hmmmmmmm.
-The fact that Water reads their stories to Marm. like, idec, thats totally not the most adorable thing I’ve heard ever lol.
Anywhooooo, thats it for the analyzing/rant post for nowww!! Water’s prob gonna be my main pov, so you WILL be hearing more from me :P
