what if your doppelganger loved being you more than you ever loved being yourself. they're better at being you and everyone loves them and it feels almost selfish to want your life back. i want clone horror but the horror is that the thing trying to replace you is also the person you always wanted to be.

[redstonedust]

and it is imperative that it ends with killing the better version of yourself with your bare hands btw.

miss holly munro!

[nellectronic]

the actual relationship between Lucy and Holly may be Overdramatic Jealous Teenager who thinks this girl is here to steal her crush + Adult Lesbian who just wants to do her job and not get caught up in these children’s drama but I still find it hilarious that everything Lucy says about Holly is like, textbook enemies to lovers shit. like “she looked absolutely perfect in every way. I’m sure if I tried I could find some flaw in her thighs or something, if I cared enough to look at her that closely. which I don’t, obviously.” girl I think you might have a little crush on someone other than Lockwood

For a city to be walkable. It must also be sittable.

[notjusthespongenextdoor]

#every time I read this phrase the same thing happens#I read it as shittable and go wait that can't be right#oh right they were talking about public benches that makes more sense#but public bathrooms available without fees should also be a thing tho#cities should definitely be shittable#it happens EVERY SINGLE TIME

it must also be shittable

The scene where Charles meets Monty outside the shop, we all agree, delicious; the look backwards, the sad cow eyes, the jumping muscle in his jaw

But would love to see more talk about that moment beyond the shipper goggles.

Charles has just come from a situation that was so incredibly triggering for him that he got trapped in a murder time loop where he tried and failed and tried and failed to stand up to an abuser and take on the protective role

Charles lives to be the protector, prides himself on it, finds maybe his only sense of self worth in it

In the Devlin house (in his perspective) he fails. He's the victim again, hes hurt again and he can't protect others. Worse Edwin and Crystal had to save him instead of the other way round (second time hes failed Edwin in port townsend). Worst of all, they saw under his facade, they now Know the ugly truth of him

So he plasters on a smile, grits his teeth and hopes he can just push it all down and hide it away so none of them (especially him) have to think about it

His self confidence and mood are at rock bottom, hes ashamed

And then Monty

Everyone's taken with Monty, even Edwin. So he puts his best foot forward- and gets a very obvious snub that no one else gets

To infer from his later speech in Two Dead Dragons- is the rot visible in him? Is there a reason Monty hates Him specifically immediately?

That's a confidence knock on the best of days but on that day? When hes off kilter already: heavy. Just when he probably wanted something familiar and safe to hide away in like his routine with Edwin, Edwin's head is turned. That's new and there's too much new to contend with lately.

The girls lead him away and he gets the message but he can't help looking back just to check, like always, but it hurts because what if this is the beginning of the end, what if Edwin sees him for what he is and moves onto someone better?

Indigenous peoples of the great plains should've never told white people about tornadoes. "I don't know man that shit never happened before you showed up"

[spacecasepc]

very prescriptivist joke you made there. i can see how you thought it was funny by ignoring the interiority of indigenous peoples and reinterpreting their choices as absurd under the lens of your own imperialist doctrines

[spacecasepc]

i'm just fucking with you that would have been funny as hell

Where’s that one post that’s like Reasons Why My Wife Cried This Week and when are we gonna get a fanfic of that but Ryland Grace.

[stargirl-and-potts]

Reasons my human has cried:

* New student, very small. Grace said it was pebble. Pebble is small Earth rock. Pebble likes name.

* He found out Eridians have no gender rules.

* Students brought him mineral sample. After he stopped crying he said he loves show-and-tell game. Human naming conventions oddly literal.

* I told him Earthsun grew bright.

* I took him up atop atmosphere bypass elevator to look at stars.

* He woke up from nap and found me still with him. I did not wait on his chest; he says I am heavy like “elephant” and he “couldn’t breathe.” I laid my arm over him instead, kept him close, feeling safe. He said “cuddle” was warm.

* Before class he heard younglings singing.

* He has plants in house from sprouts on ship. Plant grew “bud.”

* Engineers got seawater temperature right. He took off shoes and stood in water, sighing. He didn’t care about pants getting damp. Cried until shirt was also damp. Humans very endlessly wet.

* He missed “Doritos.”

* Adrian helped food scientists make taumoeba dried paste. Made it crunchy after heating. We fused it into triangle form. Told him it was Tauritos. That made him laugh-cry. Laugh-cry is rare and precious.

* He remembered Eridians have no gender rules.

* We made him celebration outfit. Used metals he calls pretty. He can see frequencies named “colorful” and “shiny.” These make humans happiest.

* I gave him hug when he wasn’t expecting it. Easier to hug close now with exosuit. Hug when Grace sitting down so he does not fall over.

* Told him to think long time, stay with me as long as he can.

i like how we all ignore that soldier / poet / king is probably supposed to all be descriptors for jesus christ and we're all just like this is my 3 blokes from the last television show i watched

[diamondsunbursts-and-marblehalls]

George stressing in episode 2 like bro we’re just two teenage boys. We don’t know how to keep a girl alive. You have to like feed and water her bro we aren’t prepared for the type of emotional responsibility that comes with a girl roommate. There is no handbook for this. We need to fire her.
