You’re Kidding

I love tropes where a popular, beautiful person falls helplessly inlove with some random guy

what do you mean house canonically says the line "Nothing that your body language isn't telling me right now." to wilson. what do you mean he says this when they're alone in wilson's office with dim lighting. what do you mean the opening chords of john mayer's "gravity" begin to play right after it cuts to wilson's flustered reaction. what do you mean

spoilers!!

you know

the way laios likes to mess with falin's hair

when they were kids and even after they grew up

as a sign of affection

and how even when he kills falin, he gently pats her head

and how he touches falin's hair after killing her. not allowing himself to stop

I actually really like the possibility of Hinata and Kageyama sorta falling out of touch during the Brazil arc - not seeing each other during the Olympics or even texting much - bc I love the angst potential but also, it makes the most sense. Hinata has this sense of... inferiority i think? "why would Olympian Kageyama meet up with delivery boy me" and feels like he has to earn his place in the national stage to be able to meet Kageyama there, finally, as equals

And THEN when he finally gets there they just. Go back to talking and teasing each other like no time has passed at all. Meeting up with each other's friends, calling each other even when they're in different countries to talk about the silliest stuff. Keeping their tally updated regularly.

To me, the thought of them not talking for years feels deliciously angsty, while also making their rekindle all the more rewarding. And even when they're not in contact with each other there's still this underlying, unwavering trust in each other that they're both working towards the same goal. That they will meet again, when the time is right.

who can relate

there was a moment when the people in the movie theatre and the capitol audience in the stands were laughing at the same things, having the same reactions to the games, to the deaths, to flickermans jokes, to the doctor's announcement...i wonder aren't we watching it for entertainment too

suzanne collins' books may exist in popular culture as "dystopian", but they have always been a meticulous and startlingly close social critique of our world. at what point does our own idolization of the movies and the books repeat that story? we watch just as the capitol audience does.

all dystopia eventually crosses a line from realistic futurism to current relevancy. how long will it take us to realize we've already crossed that line with these books? and the very people who need to realize this are the ones in that audience...real or fake, we're the same: consuming and consuming.

ONE DAY

Middle school bakudeku was like, Horrible bully x Freaky stalker wasn't it because holy shit Deku really was freaky as hell-

The guy knows his moves, stance, food habits, SHOWER AND SLEEP ROUTINE??? WHAT THE FUCK MAN-

To be clear, the Smash comics aren't Canon canon. This is just another way of understanding bkdk's dynamic and progression.
