Rio constantly yelling “why don’t you want me” and telling Agatha she loves her and that she knows she loves her back was just wow. Rio was truly distraught over Agatha not wanting her anymore. She looked so heartbroken when Agatha said “I don’t want to see you for the rest of my life and when I die” so Rio just didn’t collect her soul once she died. Everything about the finale and their relationship has left me reeling. I cannot function
So, the Master is clearly struggling with dissociation in S12, right? Because I never saw this talked about directly, but it’s been on my mind since Spyfall.
The Master is obviously traumatised by the events preceding the season and trauma is what dissociation stems from, so I guess that’s what made me look out for it. And then it just seemed so blatantly obvious to me:
The constant insisting on how sure he is about what he is doing; how right it feels - while looking utterly lost. (Nothing he does makes him feel anything, because he is completely detached from his own emotions.) The unfocused eyes during important moments. (Spaced out, can’t focus, no matter how much he wants to/ knows he should.) The mood swings. I know, every Master had those to an extent, but while in his previous incarnations it seemed almost voluntary, in this one he seems completely overpowered by it. (Inability to handle emotions.) The way he frantically claps his hands on the plane, a typical grounding technique, the same way I nervously tap my nails on my phone all the time (driving all my friends nuts).
And then the way he needs the Doctor, this time. (Even more desperately than Missy, in my view.) From making her say his name (from personal experience: your best friend saying your name; very grounding, 10/10 would recommend) to forcing her to take his hand, just to feel it in his; a prove that he still exists. The constant mentions of their past, trying to get her to talk about who he was, to find comfort in her reassurance. And the way he reacts when she says his name; he almost breaks down. He doesn’t remember who he is, but she knows and he needs her to tell him; show him, so he can feel real again.
And then the apathy toward the end; he doesn’t care if he dies, because why would it matter, when he doesn’t feel alive anyway?
"fireball this, banishment that—" do you think wizards have to call their moms for help making potions bc theirs never work quite like hers. do you think they sit there struggling to write down coherent recipes while their moms dictate based entirely on vibes and made up units of measurement like "a pinch" and "some." do you think they bicker w their moms over the proper order to add ingredients, and how no they're not going too slow, and what the hell do you MEAN it'll be done in '20-ish' minutes. do you think that when they fall in battle and need to be healed they wake up to the taste of home lingering in their mouths.
my lesbian ass is not surviving this season
Everyone is talking about how Nicky wrote the ballad with Agatha, yet noone is talking about how Agatha calls her magic "my purple" because thats what Nicky was calling it
and i absolutely love that it was the “kiss of death” that’s poetic and tragic and beautiful 10/10
You think for one moment 1A wouldn’t get suuuper drunk from time to time? (Whenever Iida is visiting his family…)
Todoroki is immune to alcohol. He can take ten shots and not even slur his words. He’s a master and we fear him. Whare does the vodka go??? No one knows. At least he chills beers for them.
Momo is also unaffected, but that’s cos she takes two sips and then changes all the alcohol in her system into something productive for society, like buckets for her classmates to throw up in.
Midoriya thinks he’ll be a lightweight but is fairly decent at holding his drinks, plus he’s got such a high tolerance for pain that hangovers barely affect him.
Bakugou, however, IS a lightweight and it’s beautiful. He refused to drink at first and when Kami finally dared him he was done after two drinks. He lost ability to function logically and cannot remember anything. Bakusquad claimed he made fireworks with his quirk and food colouring but it’s unconfirmed. Apparently Kirishima had to carry him to bed.
Kaminari and Mina started the drinking, and they usually drink the most (bar the absolute monster that is Todoroki) so they get the most drunk (except Bakugou who has the tolerance of a fucking bumble bee). Whilst drunk they often mess with their more serious classmates or start stupid games
Tokoyami never gets drunk because bottles aren’t bird friendly and he can’t see glass. This means he has plenty of blackmail material
One time in their second year Iida came back early and somehow it was decided that Bakugou should stop him from entering, since he was the only one who didn’t reek of alcohol. (due to his inability to consume the substance in large quantities). What followed was the most gut wrenching conversation Iida has ever participated in, drunk Baku becoming his therapist for three hours whilst everyone else either passed out or cleaned up
Aizawa knows exactly what’s going on and is being bribed by Mic to keep it secret, since he feels some comraderie with the teenagers.
This is the best idea in the history of film.
