i'm not great at advice, can i interest you in a sarcastic comment?

i cannot wait for the arirang tour to start. even though i won't be able to attend (for now, fingers crossed), i think this is what bts really need right now to let go of the stress and pressure they felt duplicated opposed to previous comebacks because of the expectations everyone had of them.

it is easy to imagine how they probably felt rushed in completing this project after being apart for so long and not really getting the chance to rest for a bit. if you add the fact that they haven't been performing as a group for four years and so many groups debuted and other gained popularity. i get the anxiety and insecurity of already talking about a "legacy" in the netflix documentary.

i'm not one for panicking without need, so i don't want to express bittersweet feelings about this comeback, but it saddens me seeing them so worried, like jungkook yesterday in his live talking once again about trends, as if them being away in the military for one year and a half could let them take some step backs.

i get where everything comes from and i'm sure the tour, getting into the zone again, singing live all these great songs and seeing the amazing reaction from fans all over the world will give them peace and make them realize they made an exceptional comeback.

I love how the three game of thrones series are set in the same universe, but they all give you something different. game of thrones is about epic journeys, battle strategies: it's a chess game. house of the dragon, instead, is a family drama and it shows us how power and glory can be self-destructive. and now we have a knight of the seven kingdoms which feels so authentic and real because we finally see what the history books normally ignore, the common people. even with all the lords and princes present, we get to spend time with a knight's squire and a painter. deceiption and avidity are always in the background, but now we get the chance to have a protagonist who's kind, loyal and hopeful, showing us the good sides of westeros we often forget exist.

A KNIGHT OF THE SEVEN KINGDOMS (2026-?) 1.02 | Hard Salt Beef

[werevcookie]

every time i'm watching a show set in westeros i get this urge to read the books. the only reason i haven't given in yet is because grrm will probably never finish it and the thought of never reading an ending that does justice to the atrocity we were put through years ago is enough to not think about it anymore.

[werevcookie]

the fact that they made zeus be the one to decide thalia had to be put back in her place when he was already the worst godly parent? lmao

PERCY JACKSON & ANNABETH CHASE — Percy Jackson and the Olympians: The Titan's Curse Teaser

[werevcookie]

ok but poseidon didn't have to be so hot in that coat and accent in his son's dream????

[werevcookie]

you know, something that i didn't expect to love this season was clarisse and percy's relationship. it had been anticipated that clarisse would have had a central role so i'd expected to feel for her more than in the books. however, the way they dealt with this frenemies thing between the two showed how good leaders they are. how they went from fighting and arguing about who was in charge to begrudgingly working together and trusting each other. that scene in ep 7 where clarisse shows her vulnerability and calls him by his name for the first time and then percy apologising...they became friends right there.

[werevcookie]

if this season confirmed something, is how great scene partners leah and charlie are. you can feel annabeth's hurt and desire for things to go back to how they were and at the same time how luke gets softer only with her.

[werevcookie]

there are two changes in ep 7 that i really liked. this is not to say i prefer them to what happens in the book, but i feel like they make sense for what the show has showed us so far.

the first one is sally being the one to take them to camp (with paul's car hello???). i think we can all agree on how great was the decision to build sally and percy's mother/son relationship in the first season, so i was honestly super happy when i saw her on the screen. on a second note, i would love for the party ponies to come for the big battle in the finale, we need chiron. fingers crossed.

the second one is of course thalia coming back to life. in the book it's a crazy plot twist, but i feel like you can see it coming in the show with how they mentioned her name so much, showed us flashbacks etc. with percy having visions on one hand and annabeth and grover only talking about her on the other, i feel like her return in the next episode is going to lay the foundation for what the great prophecy implies and everything that will happen next season.

[werevcookie]

this episode made me love everything that happened on circe's island even more as percy's fear became real. he was terrified his choice would have such a big consequence, would be too human and that's exactly what happened. in choosing betwen saving annabeth and saving camp, he HAD to save annabeth.

clarisse is objectively right, camp should always come first, and annabeth would definitely agree with that. however, percy didn't even hesitate, he couldn't think straight, he's too loyal to his friends for that, too human.

Johnathan Bailey as Anthony Bridgerton you have competition for yearner of the century and his name is Walker Scobell as 13 year old Percy Jackson telling his crush/girl best friend Annabeth Chase THIS

Joe Keery as Steve Harrington through every season.

STRANGER THINGS (SEASONS ONE — FIVE) creators. the duffer brothers.

[prince-geo]

You know despite the attention he's had most of his life, I truly do think that that conversation with Dustin was the probably first time in his life Steve Harrington ever felt truly and utterly irreplaceable and precious to someone else. Imagine thinking that you're mostly just the guy who's there to take the hits (and yes your friends do love you but you think they'd learn to be ok without you eventually) to then be HIT with the reality that someone's world would simply crumble without you in it. Dustin and Steve you shine brighter than all the stars in the sky I am so serious

I love how the Disney adaptation of Percy Jackson and the Olympians does such a good job from the outset of emphasizing that Percy might be half god on Poseidon’s side, but every instinct in him that makes him a hero is because he is Sally Jackson’s son.
