Snake Eyes Every Single Day

I’m #2, but #4 is a close second. And the others are now all I strive for.

actually now i’m curious

BLIND PRINCE READERS WHERE YALL AT

might just start posting I need the fandom to migrate to tumblr 💔

I know debbie and cecil are a doomed romance and I love me some angst, but I need some cute fluff. Any head cannons on flustered Cecil or just things Debbie does that makes Cecil (secretly) flustered?

cecil is a difficult man to fluster but when it does happen he's pretty good at hiding it. his artifical skin doesn't show color underneath the way normal skin does, so blushing is not really an issue for him. there are other tells though (especially if you can read him as well as debbie grayson does)

he can't handle eye contact when he's flustered, despite the intense staredowns he frequently gets into. he's got to focus on something else or just stare at the wall. his posture gets stiffer. he talks faster, less time between thoughts and words, and misspeaks more often (we see some of this when he's talking to debbie in the show).

his hands shake - he hates this especially. maybe he'll put them in his pockets. maybe he'll adjust his tie or fidget with his lapel pin or cufflinks or... something. maybe he'll fake getting a call in his earpiece. anything to distract from the feeling. he's GOT to be professional, damn it

i'm having trouble thinking of specifics for debbie right now, but i think it's just a lot of little things. i think the realization that he's paying such close attention to her and her mannerisms is what flusters him... the fact that he has these feelings he really shouldn't have, and the fact that he actually wants her to like him, as juvenile as that sounds

they seem physically comfortable enough for him to know when to reach out and hold her steady or put a hand on her shoulder, but he's cautious with it. debbie is more impulsive and when she reaches for him, it does catch him off guard. he's not used to being held

other things i like to think about:

debbie tying his tie and cecil returning the favor by fastening her necklace. the way she tilts her head and sweeps her hair away from her neck is... something

awaiting updates on world-shattering events and debbie takes his hand in hers to stop them both from shaking. no words, they don't even have to look at each other

debbie gently touching the side of his face where his scar is, moving her thumb over it

cecil putting his jacket over debbie's shoulders and her pulling it close

Also, just went into the video description to see what's going on in there, and it's only tagged with G.I. JOE, SnakeEyes, and Hasbro, which is really funny to me for some reason. Like -- yes, here is our Hasbro, GI Joe franchise show that is explicitly about Snake Eyes and Snake Eyes only. None of those other characters. How did the marketing department ever think Duke was the main character of this show? Why is he on the front of all the promotional material? Snake Eyes has the best, most clear-cut roll in the intro out of all the main characters, is in the vast majority of thumbnails for the episodes uploaded to YouTube, and is the only character tagged in the livestream description. Maybe I think about this too much, but I am so sure that I am right, and the evidence is piling up. lol.

I see this little guy pop up on my YouTube homepage (or whatever it's called), and it just fills me with such profound joy. Why does it exist? Who knows? Who are these thirty-nine people just randomly watching a full season livestream of an obscure Hasbro cartoon from 2011? Yet again, who knows? But they give me hope nonetheless. Hope that love triumphs over show cancellation, that childhood can be revisited no matter how long ago it was, and that if you build it they will come. Happy holidays, everybody.

Some days, you just wake up and remember how much of your beloved childhood media has found its way onto Tubi. And then you remember why you're like this.
