PIPER HALLIWELL 2.17, How to Make a Quilt Out of Americans

[mossbawn]

people on here are always saying “we NEED a story where the art of storytelling is abandoned” like ugh literary devices are soo annoying like that wouldn’t happen in real life that only happened to further the story (why is there story in my story) why would orpheus turn around when he was explicitly told not to why would icarus fly so close to the sun romeo&juliet catcher in the rye why are they so earnest why pour your heart and soul into anything why bother why cant all art be quippy logical monotony like my marvel movies there’s a void in my heart bc i refused to fill it and the curtains were blue

“i hate poetry its so pretentious” but then you reblog a quote or a throwaway line and say “why does this go so hard” you are desperate for poetry you are starved for it and u dont even realise you’re hungry

Concept:

I’m lowkey obsessed with the idea of Kevin going limp during the choking incident. Not because I think Andrew would hurt him to that point. But because it’d be Kevin’s way of showing him that he’s not going to fight him on this.

Kevin Day who we’ve seen throw hands against others including his own team with a broken hand. Kevin Day who feels Andrew’s hands bruise his neck and instead of fighting back like everyone knows he can, he falls completely limp.

In a sense it shows the sheer amount of trust that Kevin has in Andrew that he could face his anger head on knowing that Andrew won’t kill him.

But it also lends itself to the horrifying realisation that we have only ever seen Kevin surrender to 2 individuals: Riko and the Master. The 2 people that Kevin can’t say no to and can never fight back against, who has no choice but to submit too and obey their commands.

Kevin who didn’t fight Andrew and told him everything he wanted to be told despite promising Neil he wouldn’t tell a soul.

And now Andrew has to sit with the fact that he might be number 3.

do you think kevin hears these lyrics years and years after graduating and moving on and thinks about andrew

[grayscale-sparks]

thinking about the first time Wymack told Neil about Riko and how Kevin broke his hands

and Wymack goes “so much for family”

Neil responds “I don’t believe in family”

and then Wymack “neither do I”

but Kevin does :( Kevin believes in family, if not the one he was raised with but the one man he never knew. He took a chance on family and he won :(

When Life Gives You Tangerines (2025) “It’s fine if the whole world knows, as long as mom and dad don’t.” — Parents have no idea of the moment when their child’s heart develops knots. If they knew, they’d protect their child; so God keeps it from them. No tree grows without knots, and a child’s knot would carve a hole in a father’s heart. So God keeps it hidden.

“He’s not dateless, he’s married, you’re dateless ‘cause you’re picky.” “No, I’m not settling, alright, the perfect guy is out there, a real man, and I will find him, trust me.” “Mmm hmm. And they’re gonna love the popcorn and caramel in your teeth too.”

Kevin Day should be a bit of a whore. But in a slightly self destructive way.

Someone said my cats look like andreil and I can't unsee it!

I do love how Neil and Jean are both like yeah Kevin’s an arrogant little arsehole and someone needs to take him down a peg. But the second Kevin even starts to doubt himself both of them are falling over themselves to remind him that he is KEVIN DAY and he better start fucking acting like it!

PRACTICAL MAGIC 2 (2026)

[starlightshadowsworld]

I will never emotionally recover from Jeremy calling Kevin “his unparalleled friend.” That he looks at Kevin who was raised to be Number 2 and always seen as lesser than Riko and calls him someone without an equal who’s better than those around him.
