Chapter 21 ⋆⭒˚.⋆

Noah: Hey! New girl... Isabella: [without looking up] Not interested. Noah: What? [laughs] You don't even know what I was gonna say. Isabella: Doesn't sound promising so far. Noah: Ouch. Well... I was actually gonna ask you something. Isabella: Excuse me? I don't even know you and you're already asking me for stuff? Noah: That's the best part. If you say yes, you'll get to know me better. Remind me, what's your name again? [grins] Isabella: You come over here acting all confident and you don't even know my name? No thanks. I'm kind of busy. Noah: Woah. Harsh. Alright, fair enough. I was being a little arrogant, sorry. The truth is... I'm not very good at making friends. [lying] I have a hard time opening up to people. [surprisingly honest] Isabella: [sighs] My name's Isabella. Noah: Nice to officially meet you, Isabella. I'm Noah [smiles] I've actually seen you around school. We have Literature together. You seem like the type who likes reading, right? [pretending to be interested] Isabella: Yeah, actually. I do. Don't you? Noah: Hmm... not really. Honestly, it's hard for me to find something that actually keeps my attention. Literature's never really been my thing. That's actually why I need your help. Isabella: My help...? Noah: I'm looking for a tutor. And you're kind of the perfect candidate. Isabella: And why me? You don't even know me. How do you know I'm actually any good? Noah: Like I said, it's hard for me to find things that catch my attention. But when I do... I don't let them go. Isabella: [laughs] You know you don't have to do that, right? Noah: Do what? Isabella: Pretend to be interested in me just so I'll help you with your homework. Look, if you need help, just ask. It's not that hard. You don't have to pretend to be something you're not around me. [smiles] Noah: Damn... you're asking something from me that ...never mind. [sighs] Alright, would you help me? Isabella: I think it's pretty obvious. Noah: And while we're at it... could you help me with math, physics, and chemistry too? Isabella: What?! Are you really doing that badly? [laughs] Oh, I don't know... I'll have to think about it. New school, new classes... I still need time to settle in. Hmm... [pretends to think] Noah: Are you seriously gonna make me beg? Isabella: If necessary [laughs] Noah: Okay, Isabella. Please. Please, I genuinely need your help. Isabella: [laughing] I'm kidding. I'll help you. But don't think I'm doing your homework for you. If you want my help, you're actually going to have to put in the effort and learn something. Noah: Alright. You make the rules, I obey [laughs]

You wouldn't think these two are voiced by the same (English) va.

Anakin and Obi Wan are tragic figures in a sweeping, operatic, mythological way. Cassian is tragic in a gritty, all too real way.

For Anakin and Obi Wan, it’s fitting that they should come to a point of a grand battle and have dramatic final words for each other. For Cassian, it’s fitting that he doesn’t make it home in time to see his mother one last time, that she dies before he even knew she was sick, and without knowing about the change he’d undergone.

The mythic nature of the tragedy of Anakin Skywalker, means it feels as if he’s fighting against fate and prophecy. The realism of Andor, means Cassian’s tragedy is a battle of wills within a corrupt system.

#star wars #anakin skywalker #obi wan kenobi #cassian andor #andor #andor spoilers #there's a really fascinating and really stark difference in genre between the two and i'm captivated by it #they're so different #and allowing these two different forms of star wars to coexist creates a cool mosaic

I've been noticing so many more parallels lately. Get ready for more Ellie vs. Abby posts!

thinking about writing a witch Jyn AU for Halloween but I can’t decide which idea I like better so I’m taking votes

1. Practical Magic inspired. Jyn tries to get revenge on Krennic, accidentally kills him instead. Cassian is the private detective hired by his family to look into his death (because I didn't want to make him a cop). He can tell right away that Jyn's hiding something, but he doesn't expect to fall for her. Meanwhile, Jyn has sworn off love because her bloodline has long been believed to be cursed, and their partners tend to die young. Naturally, she ends up falling for Cassian anyway, but she's not sure what he'll do if he finds out she really killed Krennic. On top of it all, Krennic's ghost might be haunting her...

2. Much more gothic, horror vibes. Jyn and Bodhi are roommates but their lease is up next month, so when Bodhi's distant uncle dies and he inherits his house in a quiet little town, it's the perfect opportunity to move. Jyn's a witch who's been actively trying to repress and ignore her powers because magic's essentially what killed her parents, but when she meets Cassian who runs a small antique shop in town, she can't ignore the way he's always followed around by the ghost of a young woman who looks a lot like him. On top of it all, the townspeople are a little too nice in a way that's kind of creepy, and Jyn can't help feeling like they're all harboring a dark secret. The more time passes, the more she feels like something's wrong with this town...

Spare Chlogami hc?

Chloe and Kagami dont get along at first. I mean, why would they? They don't have much in common, and Chloe is rude and brash and petty which Kagami despises. Kagami is straight forward, cold and worst of all, intimidating, and Chloe can't stand it.

Kagami does appreciate Chloe's flamboyance though. She's easy to read, she isn't left in the dark about how Chloe feels about her. Its very obvious she doesn't like her, and that clarity is comforting. Maybe they get stuck together in some akuma business and have to find a way out together. Chloe decides she's going to do nothing, and Kagami gets annoyed and calls her out on it. "I thought you were a hero." Kagami's anger wouldn't be so forth coming if it wasn't that she's extremely claustrophobic and kinda trying to hide her panic attack.

Chloe wouldn't normally care, but now she feels competitive. She's threatened by Kagami right? So she needs to prove that she's strong and that she's NOT AFRAID. So of course, she has to out do her in heroics as best as she can. They bust out of whatever is keeping them prisoner, and try to save as many people as possible. And at the end... they kind of hate each other less now.

Kagami thanks her, and admits her weakness. Her claustrophobia. She apologizes for being brash, that it wasn't fair to her. Chloe's adrenaline is pumping and her ego is super inflated after saving all those people. So its like, "yeah its whatever dont worry. I'm always here to save the day, or whatever."

"I can see why Ladybug trusted you as Queen Bee now."

And this makes Chloe flustered. No one has actually... validated her experiences as Queen Bee before. "I'm sure you'd make a great hero too." She doesn't mean to compliment her, but she does anyway. She hopes Kagami didn't hear. Kagami doesn't smile, but she does nod in thanks.

They go their separate ways.

The next time they meet, its at the hotel. It's a special celebrity only event, and the two find a little clarity about the other when they meet each others moms. They decide to escape the event for the while, still sort of competing with each other. Of course, Chloe thinks she's the only one competing, but Kagami is a little bit too (and wont show it). Chloe shows off her room to Kagami and Kagami actually really likes it. And she stares out the window and its like. "This is actually really cool."

And chloe is flustered AGAIN and she DOESN'T KNOW WHY. She doesn't really care about Kagami's opinion, but also, she does. Why? Because she's a threat. Yes. A threat. Kagami then proceeds to go through her clothes and absolutely roasts her sense of style and Chloe is offended and chases her out.

The next time they meet, Chloe is watching a fencing match of Adriens. And she notices that Kagami is there. And she gets nervous again.

Basically, Chloe is kind of humbled by how much she actually fears Kagami, and they go through "rivalry" hijinks, eventually having to admit to each other that they're equals. And its incredibly validating for both parties.

They think they're fighting over Adrien, but Adrien wasn't really apart of it in the first place. Its just a reason to keep meeting, to keep competing, to keep interacting the way they do. Adrien's the only other mutual "equal" the two have in common, so it makes sense right?

Well why is Adrien never there? Why does Adrien have to be there? It was never about him. Things get weird when they realize that. Chloe leaves one of her cardigans with Kagami, one of those designer bedazzled pieces of cloth that Kagami despises, but she knows what it means.

A reason to come back.

They're not friends, they can't be friends. But they're not enemies. Or maybe they are. Suddenly Kagami's left in the dark again. She doesn't know how Chloe feels about her anymore. Its scary, and also, completely riveting. The way they can communicate with just eye contact, with an action, with a competition, with a left behind sweater. Maybe she doesn't know how she feels about Chloe either. And maybe being in the dark is better.
