Haven’t watched Ep 8x17 yet (need advice!) So the new episode just dropped on Disney+ here, and I haven’t seen it yet. I usually read the synopsis or liveblogs ahead of time to prep for any triggers or stuff I might want to skip—and I did catch some of your incredible posts and reactions already.

I’ve always been kind of indifferent toward Eddie’s character (sometimes just skip his scenes tbh), but from what I’m seeing in the tags… this doesn’t seem like a good ep for him. And I do tend to get upset by scenes with aggressive behavior, especially if it feels brushed over or unearned.

Part of me wants to just skip his scenes or even wait until after the finale to watch this one. Because I know myself—and I will spiral and want to rant. And that’s not always helpful, especially when I already find his character deeply frustrating and problematic.

So genuinely asking: do you think it’s worth watching? Should I skip the scenes, or save it for later when I’m less likely to go full character assassination mode?

Alternate version of Nona the Ninth where everything stays the same except Nona wears this shirt the whole time as foreshadowing.

OR

John Gaius wears this during the flashback talks with Harrow

My current favourite look for Link.

(Plot? What plot? We're here for the armour collections.)

trying to withhold judgement, but am less than 5 minutes into the new percy jackson show and this is.

I liked the fucking movie better.

thoughts on bna:

so over the last two days i binge-watched bna and i really liked it??? here are some thoughts 

spoilers!! 

overall: thoroughly enjoyable, 8/10

the op and ed are SO GOOD i have not stopped listening to them they are incredible and slap so hard. the ost in general was 10/10 for me

i love how colorful it was the aesthetic was 20/10

ngl i called almost every single plot twist but tbh that made it more fun... like it made me happy that i could pick up on the writers' hints and see where things were going

the characters were pretty solid. shirou especially stood out to me (perhaps as a white-haired anime dude) but like,,, i just like him a whole lot

michiru was essentially the girl version of a shounen protagonist. i liked her a whole lot but oh my god was she infuriating sometimes. things that made it worth it: michiru and shirou calling each other out on their bs

nazuna... eh. tbh i didn't really like her through the whole series (i did feel bad that she was being used the whole time tho), though i did like how her redemption started at the end. idk i felt like she was just using michiru through the series and only treated her well when she was acting as a helper or something. it just rubbed me the wrong way, like if one of my friends acted like that i would be long gone. and i know a lot of people ship nazuna with michiru and like??? i can't see it??? it do be a notp

pacing was kind of off bc i finished ep 12 and i was like that's it?? where's the rest of the story??? honestly i feel like they could've done so much more if it was longer and i want a season 2 really badly

yeah but overall it was great please watch bna!!

A drabble because that trailer won't leave me alone. Also Youth by Daughter which has decided to become *the* Pen and Ink angst song of my life

Destroy the middle, it's a waste of time

Penelope is a professional. She chooses her words carefully. She must.

She'll hear them back again, over and over as the news reports on their miraculous success, or they'll haunt her, later, in an empty eulogy delivered in front of empty coffins. Penelope all in black but for her IR pin, Grandma teetering beneath a pile of neatly folded flags. 

Perhaps Penelope will take one, just for a little while. Hold it tightly against her best vintage Chanel until the chill of it seeps into her bones and the bugles stop playing. Grandma won't mind, she's sure, if she allows herself just a moment.

How many tragedies can one woman be expected to hold, after all?

So it's Godspeed, International Rescue, while the island falls apart and Thunderbird Shadow screams into the sea. Godspeed and Good Luck and please, please come home whispered in last night's last light, the plea catching at the back of her throat, held back by lips that press together like a prayer.

Don't go.

I gotta. It’s going to be okay, it is, Pen. Swear.

Penelope is a professional. She chooses her lies carefully. She must.

I know.

Eve saying "there's nothing to worry about, we're the good guys :D" has me worried :S

Literally none of Eve’s dialogue has felt at all natural so that was actually very in character, lol. Thank god it’s almost the weekend, this waiting is killing me.
