Apologies for the random, outta the blue ask, but I wanted to say THANK YOU for the sheer speed and dedication you consistently show wrt sharing new League and League-adjacent stuff on your blog :) I follow LoL, LoR etc a lot more casually than I did a few years ago and I find it a pain to find stuff ever since Surrender @ 20 shut its doors. I genuinely appreciate that whenever I delve into Tumblr for a bit, I inadvertently end up getting to see so much cool stuff about one of my favourite universes thanks to your page! Genuinely a pillar of my experience on this hellsite for me at this point
hey, thanks so much for your kind message! yeah it's a shame with what happened with Surrender@20 - to tell the truth i use their discord server a lot to keep track of new updates (along with following every LoL regional account on twitter haha)
anyway it really means a lot hearing that you're enjoying the blog, thanks again!!
can i get uhhhh number 11
yayyyy
Bri we’re rewatching Buffy 4x15 & 4x16 and realized
Joyce doesn’t live to see Faith get better
The last real time Faith has with Joyce is when she’s in Buffy’s body, and it’s where Joyce insists to Faith that she can’t imagine what happened to make Faith that way. She tells Faith that she doesn’t believe she’s happy. Faith literally hears Joyce say, to her face (well, Buffy’s face) that she hopes Faith gets the help she needs.
Faith literally goes thru all of 15 & 16 then rushes off to the Angel set & goes on a rampage trying to get Angel to kill her. She finally breaks & then has to see Buffy too. Spends all these years in prison. Has to break out to safe Angel. Finally after all those years gets back to Sunnydale. Ends up at Joyce’s house.
Except it NOT Joyce’s house now, it’s Buffy’s house. Joyce is gone and omg the last thing she sees of Faith is her literally at her worst. She never gets to apologize. I’m blowing myself up BRI!
JOYCE TELLS HER TO HER FACE THAT SHE THINKS SHE NEEDS HELP AND DOESNT THINK FAITH LIKES BEING THE WAY SHE IS! FAITH GETS TO SEE THAT SOMEONE GENUINELY DOES NOT HATE HER OR SEE HER AS EVIL OR BAD! EVEN AFTER SHE HELD HER HOSTAGE! AND SHE NEVER GETS TO APOLOGIZE OR MAKE AMENDS OR DO BETTER BY JOYCE. IM SO UPSET
yeah dude......
Look, Faith's relationship with Joyce is a parallel of her relationship to Buffy, in a lot of ways. Joyce represents the life Buffy has that Faith wishes was hers. Their first meeting is that dinner at Buffy's house, it's Joyce sitting across from her and asking about her life, being visibly delighted by her answers. It's Joyce feeding her. The moment Joyce leaves the table, Faith turns to Buffy. "She's really cool, huh?"
It's only like a scene or two later that we get one of Faith's first and only comments about her family. "My dead mother hits harder than that!" after she's hit in the face by a vampire. Oof.
The nice house, the watcher, the mom that cares, the friends - all these things Buffy has, that Faith covets. All things that Faith eventually resents her for.
There's something unhinged and sad and desperate in the way Faith tries to appeal to Joyce, when she's holding her hostage in This Year's Girl. I mean, it's absurd and that typical Faith mixture of hilarious and pathetic, but pleading with Joyce, trying to earn her validation again - "Buffy dumped us." Maybe that scene would have been different, if Joyce agreed, if Faith could have been convinced they were both victims of a similar heartbreak. Probably not. But maybe.
And like you said, what comes after - Joyce's sympathy, her worry, defending Faith after being bound and threatened by her. It throws Faith so badly. It gets in her head.
By season 7, Faith has cultivated a lot of self-awareness and a lot of self restraint. Buffy's life, and Joyce in particular, has always been a sore spot between Buffy and Faith. She would know better than to make this about her.
But it would have to sting, being in that house with an apology in her throat for a woman who's never going to hear it.
MOON 5 - - Shadowleap thinks they’ll have a small litter. They decide not to move to the nursery, instead helping out their sister in the medicine den, much to her distaste. - Stagrunner was caught on HollowClan territory by a patrol, and chased off. - Willowkit has fleas - Spottedpaw thinks Willowkit isn't very considerate of others. (i also realized that willowkit was actually a tom at this point lol)
Created some new clanmew terms for this! Sort of making my own Clanmew Dialect lol the words are "Nyrrmleh" - for rude/rudeness (directly, Rotten-Tounge), and "woomwrlruu" - for mousebile (directly, dead mouse-sick) Sorry for the overall quality and god awful contrast on this page! My iPad absolutely HATED this file bc of all the layers haha
Clanmew translation below!
