[ Jujutsu Kaisen S2 EP13 ]
actually i love the reveal that the only reason effie got involved with the hunger games at all was because her little sister needed her.
Suzanne Collinβs just said fuck you to everyone whoβs ever critiqued the Hunger Games as being a βteen girl saves the dayβ story. She said oh, Mockingjay didnβt make it clear enough? Hereβs a book about how people have been rebelling for decades only to have their efforts suppressed and propagandized. Rebellion takes time and it takes failure and Katniss may have been the spark that ignited the wildfire but she did so standing atop the doused flames of everyone who came before her.
You know what I'm a slut for? When a character visibly drops a ruse. Like, the way their face changes the moment they give up a facade and reveal themselves.
This applies to revealing love, apathy, anger, evil intent. I mcfuckin love it.
i love the fact that Weird Barbie is weird.
And I mean this in the sense that, they show the impact the real world has had on this toy, this inanimate object that those playing with viewed as devoid of emotion, incomprehensibly inhuman.
But the alterations, the pain sheβs endured has stuck with her, become a part of her. People label her by her struggles, by what sheβs been through. Externally, she is different, and it doesnβt matter how she feels internally because she will forever be labeled by her struggles.
Sheβs embraced it and sheβs accepted this piece of herself as a whole, even helping those who perceive themselves as βweirdβ or βmalfunctioningβ. She knows how it feels to be out of place, to be thought of in this negative light because you donβt adhere to how Barbie is meant to be β perfect.
She has struggled and her struggles make her wonderful, make her the person she is, that is her real beauty
Yet in the end, Weird Barbie is as much a Barbie as anyone else, as much an embodiment of perfect as one can hope to achieve.
Barbie is Barbie, and no matter her struggles, she is perfect as she is, because perfection is a state of mind. Perfection is what you make it. It is flaws, it is pain and tears. But it also love, it is light and it the happiness you feel knowing you are with flaw β but flaw is what makes you unapologetically yourself, it is what makes you Barbie.
Thank you Greta.
Stop memorizing my attack patterns. That's fucked up. Who let you do that.
Thereβs a lot going on in that little critterβs head right now.
