Celebrating the release of the Stargaze trailer by introducing my mother to Trigun '98. For context, I made a little post last month about how I had introduced her to Trigun via Badlands Rumble and she was interested in finding out more. She has no additional knowledge about the story beyond the fact that I love it and what she's gleaned from BLR. So far, we've only watched the first few episodes.

This woman was born in the 60's and grew up around the UK rock music scene, so it was kinda cool that she immediately clocked onto the music influence in the opening, likening the soundtrack to Led Zepplin and The Clash.

She loves Vash! Described him as "deceptively cute but kind of sexy when he gets all serious." I may have died a little inside at that but hey, at least we know she has good taste. She especially liked the scene in ep.3 where he disrupts the robbery with a bin lid on his head lmao. She kept asking but I refused to tell her what his outfit is like underneath his coat so she made some guesses. She thinks he's wearing a sleeveless white shirt with some sort of waist coat or sleeveless jacket over it (I need an artist to draw him in this.) I don't think she's ready for what he actually dresses like!

She's not a huge fan or Milly and Meryl so far and although I very much disagree with her, to be fair, they haven't been super developed yet so I'm hoping her opinion will change going forward. She thinks Milly is very cute at least, and is pretty sure Meryl already has a bit of a crush on Vash.

Predictions for the plot so far is that this is somehow going to end with Vash being well known as a hero. She says, it seems like everybody either underestimates his skills because he acts silly or thinks he's a troublemaker, but over time society is going to come to recognise him as a good guy. I actually think this interpretation is super interesting because the whole 'lone gunman' hero origin story is very much embedded in the western genre and she doesn't yet have much context for how Trigun switches things up. So much significance in the beginning is placed on the varying ways people perceive Vash's character and I think she'll be surprised to find that Vash's goals don't necessarily align with changing people's opinions of him. I think it will be really interesting to see how her thoughts develop once the plot gains some momentum.

She also hopes that Wolfwood shows up soon just because she knows how much I adore him and "wants to see what all the fuss is about" lol.

i had a dream last night that someone's mum who was not my mum was telling me off for the terrible amount of squash i drink because it's not good for me and i should really just be drinking water and her daughter was also nodding along and saying "mhm... yes... she's right, you know" and i was so embarrassed and kept apologising and saying i would try to drink more water. the worst part is i'm often a horrible person in my dreams, i say the worst things my subconscious mind can come up with and can be extremely violent which is usually very upsetting when i wake up, but the one time someone deserves it i have nothing to say!!!

last night my wife woke me up in the middle of the night, still half-asleep, told me that "if there was a 2023 season of Seinfeld there should be an episode where George and Jerry get matched on Tinder" and then fell right back to sleep
