got a new pen :-)
Absolute gems from the old my chem website
where are the posts and gifs celebrating and analyzing Venetia??? The vampire scene??? Her style, her heart-shaped sunglasses and wearing heels to play tennis??? Just, her presence in the film??? The way her mother speaks about her to total strangers??? The way that she calls out Oliver in her last scene??? Her recognizing him for who he is, and that being her undoing??? The tension that she holds within herself, just like Felix, but so much smaller in the eyes of Oliver and the film??? (I also think it's interesting that she and Elspeth have such visceral death scenes but Felix is just a cut away shot... Emerald Fennel your mind...) Please I beg of y'all talk more about Venetia!!! And stop posting so much about that nerd who was in the movie for five minutes.
Humans didn't make the big ben. Do you really think those dumbass Britains could make a clock that big? Those big gears are way too heavy, how'd they get those up there. No way. It was the beasts
[Foaming at the mouth while gripping you by the shoulders] You don't understand. Chani leaving at the end was about so much more than the romance. It outlined the entire point of the story. Chani in the film STANDS for the POINT Herbert was trying to make. About how wrong Pauls actions really were, about how religion was being utilised as a tool of political power, about how her own people were turned into tools of invaders. Chani is the voice of reason in this film and she leaves. She just leaves. She wants nothing to do with what Paul has become. Do you understand.
Born to read a fanfiction about Caracella and Getas complex trauma ,and sibling rivalry.
Forced to only find incest fanfiction.

the beatles actually look very different from each other and are quite easy to tell apart but for some reason most fan artists who draw them can not grasp this and I think that's where the "the beatles all look the same" thing came from
Struck by a realization.
Caracalla, a horribly disease ridden forceps baby, seemingly forgets his involvement with his brother’s death a matter of hours, or days, after the fact.
I see people attributing this to neurosyphilis, the psychological effects of lead poisoning, etc. Obviously. But I feel like it could also be some flavor of a trauma response. Whether he is unintentionally repressing memories of violence, or deliberately refusing to accept reality and thus losing the thread, I’m not quite sure.
Yeah, the man is obviously deeply sick. But him and Geta have also been through a history of physical abuse. A cocktail of drinking, desensitization to violence, trauma, brain damage, and psychosis all contributed.
If Caracalla was experiencing some type of severe complex trauma or delusions (or both;) it would be incredibly easy to completely discard anything that doesn’t adhere to the reality his mind had created. Especially when that reality is a place where he is correct, protected, or vindicated. Caracalla’s deep fried and shredded brain tissue would have absolutely no problem tossing out the memory of literally sawing Geta’s head off. Caracalla might have simply dismissed it as an intrusive thought he ignored, a nightmare he had. I dunno, him being conscious of the event but not recognizing it is MISERABLE!! And I am nothing if not a creator of miserable fiction.
I don’t have all of the right words here. But god. I am sick to my stomach thinking about my blorbos.
I saw some parallels and did a thing
Wasn’t sure what to put in the middle spot
