was about to make a "gay people can never flirt normally" post about arkayne but realized kayne does actually.
-"my love" and similar: self explanatory. normal flirting
-giving him a dagger: shiny trinket like crow. kayne's not the one who decided to stab himself with it
-helps with his wound in coda and probably also part 28
-watches his entire life in this and thousands of other timelines: he wants to know more about arthur. normal crush behavior probably
-writes and directs a christmas special starring one of those other arthurs: creative expression. like a journal to him i think.
-sends his enemy to hell, kills his enemy-turned-half-situationship, and sends his other situationship to spain (?): he just wants some alone time is that really too much to ask
-plays him a song on the piano :)
-sends him on a fetch quest to the 1200s: he got nervous idk. don't we all
I’ve heard so much about this episode and I finally got to the bit!
..damn
Au where kayne makes super obvious, unfunny pop culture references instead of his subtle 4th wall breaks and literally nothing else changes but kaynes scenes are so cringe that people stop listening to the show
I..... Hate you...
I hate this.... Kayne is the light of the world and this is a sin
John’s hate for SPECIFICALLY Oscar is so funny
Literally anyone else? Sure, fine
Oscar? Fuck that guy lmao
I love Oscar though
having more malevolent thoughts. spoilers for up to part 51
so, I’ve been looking into the lore of H.P. Lovecraft recently because of Malevolent and it’s triggered some thoughts. mainly about the stones, Azathoth, and Kayne’s motives. also a little bit about Lillith. what everything this season means. whether shes the true evil they need to avoid or not
Azathoth is known as the “blind idiot god.” he is in an eternal slumber, and it’s said that existence is simply his dreams. that waking him could wipe everything. earth, humanity, everything would be gone in an instant.
so in the context of Malevolent.. is this Kayne’s goal? we’ve been told that hes collecting the three stones that harbor Azathoth. is the “end” that the people are scared of not Lillith getting the black stone, but Kayne getting the black stone and waking Azathoth?
Lillith wants the stone to have power… but why? we know she has a deep hatred for Kayne. every time his name is said to her, she gets angry. does she want to take him down? she insists that she is the daughter of Nyarlathotep, not Kayne. does this mean shes a daughter of a Nyarlathotep that Kayne killed? does she want the stone to enact revenge? has she wanted this since Kayne took out all other versions of himself and that is why he trapped her?
I wonder if ultimately, Lillith feels for humanity. she talks about them with such distain, yet she gave Alia such kindness and gentleness, giving her peace. I wonder if she saw herself in Alia. if previously she’d also been used as a tool, and now she wants the stone so she cannot be used like that again. so no one can be used like that again
further with that thought, is Arthur her favorite because he too has been made into a tool? John as well? Arthur lost his eyes, a hand, and a foot. John lost all autonomy. they tools to each other, but furthermore are tools to Kayne, getting him what he wants. does Lillith use what she was taught about humans as a mask for how she really views them? but then if she wanted to help, to take down Kayne, why not say that? because she wouldn’t be believed?
Im not completely sure but I can’t help but feel like Lillith is at least not an entirely malevolent entity
Immoral thread, so weak
decided to do a whole colored digital thing with this sketch. Please imagine it in the post dismemberment pause where it almost feels like Kayne's hesitating.
Close up below.
mildly annoyed that the way I drew it you don't see a hint of all 4 limbs in a close up. Left leg is just over that way I promise. Oh and imagine that his breastplate is broken and you just can't see it. perhaps it's behind them. Perhaps its near his right arm. It broke in the first impact and is just not in view. I definitely did not forget to add the broken pieces somewhere.
A non-exhaustive list of things from TMA that I was 100% certain were just fandom jokes before I actually listened to the podcast:
- The homophobic vase.
- Jon being kidnapped and forcibly moisturized for a month.
- Jon being kidnapped three separate times in the span of a single season.
- The "I won't kill a man because you're jealous." "Why not?!" exchange between Jon and Martin.
- There are like seven or more characters all named some variant of Michael.
- Melanie calling Jon "The Ceaseless Watcher's special little boy".
- Jon asking Martin if he was a ghost.
- The "Statement of Joe Spooky" quote from Tim.
- The "Except for the vampires." "Yeah, obviously except for the vampires." exchange between Jon and Gerry.
- Mike Crew trapping a dude on a ladder forever.
- Jon asking Martin to gouge his eyes out and run away with him.
- Nikola Orsinov. Like, just in general.
- Elias being a pothead.
- Georgie being literally incapable of feeling fear.
- The bone apple teeth.
- The guy who married a bug.
obsessed with kellin malevolent. i don’t talk about him enough but my god is he one of the side characters of all time.
first of all, this guy drops perhaps the best one liners in the entire show. i cannot express how much i love the line “arthur, tell that voice in your head that my mother was not a whore,” cause like, on the one hand its fucking funny as anything, especially when paired with harlan’s equivalent of a vine boom effect. but on the OTHER HAND, this line is absolutely terrifying cause we go the entire ep thinking this guy is nothing like arthur and the voices he speaks of just signify his own mental instability but then we get this shocker of a reveal!! UGH, i adore ep 4 so much.
and don’t even get me started on just how creepy the entire ep is. i’ll never forget how much of a captive i felt like listening to that ep, trapped in that car with arthur not sure what this quick tempered guy in a gas mask was gonna do next. that unsettling dread was unmatched.
and oh, kellin in SCRATCH’S DREAM ??!! fucking incredible scene. we go so long never thinking about this guy and then bam, a nightmare encounter showing back up in arthur’s nightmares.
also just obsessed with kellin’s attitude. yes, please sing a shitty cover of a song that hasn’t been released yet. i adore how arthur gets in the car and kellin essentially just demands that arthur serenades him and then gets pissed when arthur fucks up the lyrics.
truly an icon of a character. kellin holeman i’ll never forget you.
Arthur waking up in the Dark World next season for his third canonical torture session
