So I was going to make a silly post about how much I love their gossipy silly friendship and then I overthought it so now I'm making it your problem too.
Just think. All those years at Hexside, Willow failing every class, Gus the child prodigy but in an undervalued track. Being told constantly by adults that they weren't good enough unless they aspired to be in the Emperor's Coven, with all the ruthless individualism and backstabbing that entails. They were brought up in a society where their worth was measured by how much they could serve an emperor, a system, which was designed to take everything it could and give nothing back. and they weren't perfect: look at how they idolize the emperor's coven in season 1.
And yet. And yet and yet. Gus still stuck with Willow while she was being bullied by the most popular kids in school, not to mention the teachers! Willow wasn't scared when Gus' illusions got out of control, and taught him how to quieten down his mind!! When Gus ran away from home, when he was terrified of telling his own dad he got a failing grade, Willow was the one to go and find him!!!
And then! When Willow brought Luz to school in secret for the first time, Gus was the only one she trusted enough to tell! They're the ones who incited the crowd to protest until the emperor set Luz and Eda free! They forgave Amity and befriended Hunter. They're the backbone of the Hexsquad as we know it. Despite the odds being stacked against them, together they managed to carve out this space for silliness and joy and decency.
Hunter said that he never thought there'd be a place for him in a world like this. Luz ran away from the human realm because it felt so hostile to her. Amity was trapped under the constant expectations of Lilith and her parents. But all along, Willow and Gus were quietly preparing a space for them, to come when they were ready
idk i just think that they're important that's all

Fiddlestan, werewolf! Stan and the mental image of Stan some nights just a full on giant wolf.
And that means sometimes Stan just cuddling with Fiddleford in giant wolf form. Takes up most of the bed, so big and is hard to move.

Okay this is kinda a stupid thought I had once I got over the craziness of Odysseus.
All the like middle aged men are dead cuz of the war except for the weak and cowardly
And now Odysseus has killed all the suitors which was basically all the younger men of Ithaca. Plus some faraway princes and such
So in doing that he basically made Telemachus the most eligible bachelor in all of Ithaca and the neighboring kingdom.
His first day as a dad and he’s already wingmaning his son
Yow
Eu gostaria de compartilhar com vocês uma teoria minha de the owl house.
Basicamente. Oque começou em luz acabou em luz. “Oque você quer dizer com isso?” vocês me perguntam. Simples!
O nome da protagonista é Luz Noceda, e o primeiro feitiço ela foi de luz.
Talvez tenha sido apenas um Easter egg da Dana. Mas ainda assim gosto de pensar que isso foi uma alusão de que a luz (tanto a personagem como o poder) e a coisa mais importante para todo o desenrolar do desenho.
E só isso mesmo. Não tenho argumentos o suficiente. Aqui onde eu vivo não tem ninguém que assiste essa série. Tinha que compartilhar isso com alguém além de mim mesma.
Obrigado por ter lido.
The interesting thing about filbrick is that the way stan describes him is the way a lot of boomers describe their parents.
The parents of boomers belonged to "the silent generation", they were people who went through generational traumas like. The great depression and ww2. These were people with lots of trauma and no therapy so they got to pass it down to their kids yay!
Also parenting styles were different then, and during the 50s/and The Post War Conformity and 60s: children were not largely acknowledged as their own people. They were raised to be mini versions of their parents, there was not a consideration for a child as an individual.
So Filbrick was a bad parent, yes. But he was also in a Context where what we consider to be child abuse was normalized.
Theres a tendency to make things 1 dimensional and say an abusive person always has to have the full intention to hurt someone just to hurt them and must be purely evil and set to torture with no love at all.
But like, the way Filbrick acted towards his sons was likely considered unfortunately normal or even Good. He may have even loved them in the way he knew how or was supposed to, but that doesnt mean he couldnt also do hurtful or even abusive things.
And that probably actually makes it worse for Stan and Ford. If someone does a thing that hurts you and you Know that something was wrong, you can at least feel rightfully angry about it.
If its normalized then you dont get that catharsis. You are left thinking that what happened to you was the way it was supposed to be. Filbrick doesnt need to be extremely abusive to have hurt his kids, he might even have loved them. But that doesnt mean he didnt hurt them too! If he did or did not makes little difference.
papa bruno au!!!! iM OBSESSED WITH IT, ALLLL CREDITS GO TO @renrenlady !!!! their ideas are INCREDIBLE!!! and i cannot stop listening to the song “she’ll never know”!!!
for these first two it’s the first time mirabel sees him behind the walls and it’s him fully seeing her grown :’))) i cannot imagine how he would feel
AND THESE!!!! are after the events of the movie!!!! (mirabel still being obviously unaware) and i kinda like the idea of julieta talking to bruno and asking him when he’s gonna tell her :‘))) if EVER
i cannot imagine the pure joy he must’ve felt to be able to hold his daughter again for the first time in a DECADE, even tho she calls him tio,,,it’s okay, she’s still in front of him and he can still tell her how much she means to him
(i like to think he will one day, and mIGHT draw that interaction because i think it would be HEART BREAKING)
but genuinely this au has been tearing my heart apart and the thought of him watching from a distance and the terror he must have felt when she found him behind the walls in this au mustve been TERRIBLE
but again, MAJOR SHOUTOUT TO @renrenlady because their work is incredible and you should most definitely go check out more stuff about this au on their page!!!!
Do you guys think Hunter had a final moment of clarity where he told Flapjack to get away before Belos took complete control? Do you think Flapjack would have tried to pull at his hair or get his attention when he noticed something was wrong with Hunter? Do you think they had a moment to both realized what was about to happen? Because if this-
-was their last interaction before Belos took over, then I will simply ✨never fucking recover✨
