i was tired and forgot that the reason why i posted this was to say luz would've gotten waffles as her palisman if flapjack had survived. i am completely making this up and have no evidence but if flapjack was still alive, he would've stayed with hunter - protecting caleb like evelyn would've wanted. luz would've gotten a bird to reconfirm her status as a clawthorne and because of the symbolic meaning of blue jays - confidence, strength, protection, faithfulness etc relating to her as a character. instead of being heavy handed with stringbean's ability to shapeshift in tandem with luz's indecision we would focus on her need for adaptability and freedom, something often associated with birds because of their ability to fly. in this essay i will
thinking about how palismen can act on their own free will and if their owner is unable to wield them, palismen can make the decision to protect their owner’s loved ones from danger (like with eda, owlbert and luz)
thinking bout evelyn being flapjack’s original owner. flapjack being drawn to luz initially because she reminded him of her. flapjack ultimately rejecting luz as his next owner bc he knows evelyn wanted to protect caleb from harm and that’s where he’s most needed. flapjack only warming up to hunter when he realizes this is caleb and this is who his owner would’ve wanted to protect the most, so he does it for her. belos saying goodbye to evelyn when killing flapjack because he’s the last piece of evidence of her. flapjack being willing to sacrifice himself for his owner’s true love

anyway for the record, yes, so-and-so did use girl power when she committed a bunch of murders. it's called girl power not girl ethics or girl qualms or girl wisdom or whatnot.
I’m so sorry for talking so much shit about Caleb I was not familiar with his game 😭🙏
yes being a teenage girl can be incredibly alienating and lonely and searching for an identity through self-expression can help with that but my god if i was 15 and the entire internet was telling me i needed to be a clean girl or a vanilla girl or a coquette girl or a coastal girl that i should wear gold hoops and slicked back hair and an oversized blazer that i should buy matching pink workout sets to be a pilates princess that i should get a 400 dollar ralph lauren sweater for the ‘old money’ aesthetic that a nose job is a rite of passage that buccal fat removal is a great idea that the kardashians are removing their bbls and heroin chic is back that i need to dissect every single aspect of my personality and make sure it conforms to a label just to make me more palatable and more cute and more trendy i think i’d run into the woods and never come back
i think we as a society need to start accepting that fictional love stories need to be a bit toxic for us to go insane over them… like, sometimes you kinda need the two parties to be obsessed with each other and fucked up and willing to bring each other back from the dead instead of moving on and go to therapy i’m sorry😔
