Back from Double Life:
"Pinch yourself." Grian whispered to Scar, too afraid to break the delicate atmosphere they found themselves in. He dared not hurt Scar himself, he couldn't bare to–any more than he's already done.
Scar immediately obeyed, pinching the skin of his own forearm. Light enough so he wouldn't bruise, but hard enough to hurt.
Grian's eyes turned misty. "I can't feel you anymore." He rubbed the skin of his own arm where just hours ago he would've felt a reflection of his best friend's pain.
deadly, oh, wow, mass murder, murder on my mind ♫
Sorry but Scar putting Gem back in Exile when she’s one of the only hermits who’s 100% in regulation is so fucking funny to me
Like Scar did NOT want to ask Grian to clarify what ‘Stragglers’ was, he just turned into a kill people on sight guy and I think that’s beautiful
what if instead of having a fake name for internet personal-life purposes we could have a fake name for professional work-life purposes
we used to have normalized whump. remember what they took from you....
the dichotomy between an attack dog vs a guard dog is like. an attack dog is sent out to carry out violence. it's starved and abused to ensure aggression. it has no other purpose outside of Attacking at the whim of its master. it's constantly on guard because a threat can come from any direction at any time. it's the dog chained up in a basement that's only set loose when there's something to kill.
but a guard dog is protecting instead of attacking. instead of being sent out to fight, it comes home to defend the house. it may be constantly on watch for an external threat, but it is content to lay with the sheep until a wolf comes to the door. the guard dog has a warm place to sleep, and is well fed and treated like a member of the household. it's free to leave at any time but it stays to protect the house anyway. do u get it. do u understand.
Also tragic
and while i’m on a self indulgent thing? i think that any of the kids calling Bruce “dad” changes his whole demeanor. it helps him know that whatever they’re talking about is serious.
hearing his name shouted across the house does nothing for him. a hundred people say his name all day, including his kids. whatever the situation is can be fixed.
but hearing “Dad!”, cried out in battle or screamed from the other room, has him rushing to their side. what is it love and i’m here you’re alright and shh i’ve got you
“Bruce, I need help” = can’t open this large jar, have a question about math homework, need someone to look at this case file for me
“Dad, I need help” = I am hurt. I am scared. I am in danger. I need you to make things better. I need you to protect me.
Do you ever think how in the third life finale grian was so mad after becoming red and ready to get vengeance but the moment scar answered with "you can kill me" he immediately folded? Any bloodlust, any anger, any feeling of betrayal just gone as fast as they came which is insane considering grian is freshly red
symbolism can be whatever you want it to be and now that theres 7 life series we can make the winners deadly sins if we want. heres my proposition:
grian: pride (vibes) scott: sloth (laid back in most seasons) pearl: envy (towards the other soul pairings) martyn: gluttony (time is delicious) scar: greed (seashells on the sea shore) cleo: wrath (die for me) joel: lust (hes gonna fuck that car)
WHAT IF I CRIED.
