thinking about paddy, the chillest and furthest from combat we’ve ever seen him, casually walking around a giant mansion in the filthy sweater he wore to bury his dead boyfriend. someone get a brontë sister on the phone
Getting all the sages in TOTK
In case you want a blank version to break the news yourselves tomorrow
is 100% definitely, undoubtedly Tech, yeah?
I mean, physically/literally:
His accent is different under the voice modulation
I stg those pained grunts as he lifted the stones were pure Tech
He runs in Creature Posture
The pocketses
He still doesn't give a fuck about following orders
But also narratively:
The lingering closeups whenever he's about to act in regard to the Batch. Is it consideration? Hesitation? They sure want us to wonder.
The story's repeated emphasis on Crosshair being able to anticipate his moves, and the way they match each other beat for beat the whole way down.
The fucking intimacy of the way he almost kills Crosshair. I mean the whole physicality of the fight, but especially the way Clone X had to stare into his eyes while he drowned him.
Why, as a writer, would you waste those story beats on someone who had no personal significance to the Batch? You just wouldn't.
NO CAUSE IM STILL FUCKING WEEPING
NEIL GAIMAN SLEEP WITH ONE EYE OPEN
(I don’t mean that I think you’re great but I still need processing time 😭💔)
Aziraphale there better have been something in that coffee or I’ll burn all your favourite books myself.
the ghost of that catholic boy
the piano in the truck
I want my friend back
hiding from gun fire behind a fucking piano
paddy’s face when he didn’t die in termoli
you… I missed you
the desert where we were most easily ourselves
when it was the desert, and you, and me.
you and me.
MY BOY IS BACK AND HE’S HAUNTING THE FUCK OUT OF THE NARRATIVE
know your history.
God bless Bella Ramsey for these pictures 🩷

early seasons destiel was such a moment. cas appears in a barn after yelling incoherently at dean in a gas station and his hotel room, then proceeds to tell dean his greatest secrets, eyefuck him within an inch of his life, call sam an abomination, explode a few light fixtures for effect, and disappear… and the fandom was like oh yeah baby that’s romance!
