Lets Talk About The Not So Pleasant Parts Of Autism

*Cue rainbow screaming*

Itchy veins.

The only bad thing about Gem and Joel's team up is, well, they actually have the means and the skill and the luck to do it.

But, you know, if a team makes it to the end, there can only be one.

And we've seen that except... they aren't the type to give the win to the other, they worked too hard, too proud of their skills, and it would feel like a disservice to the other to try and hand it off.

They aren't the type to sling bloody punches at each other in a cactus ring, begging for apologies and singing their sorrows.

They aren't the type to promise an honored deal with crossed fingers only to turn and twist and laugh maniacally as they betray due to the desperation of time ticking inevitably away

They aren't the type to twist bitterly and finally end up together, one reaching only finally so they aren't alone for the other to throw it away in what they think is what is wanted

They aren't the type to dance around and ignore hearing that the other doesn't want the win, ignoring it because they don't want to be alone only for the other to die silently without realizing and left wondering

No

Either of them could win. Statistically Joel has beaten Gem more than she has him, but that doesn't mean she can't win, Joel gets flustered easy. Joel tends to get more reckless and take the long shot that pays off, but Gem tends to flounder if caught off guard.

I think, if they are at the end there will be no promises or honor duels or gifted or taken wins, I think they'll just lunge. Not like a desperate wolf bites, but as an acknowledgement to who they are as people, bloodthirsty and fun and wanting to win. Maybe they will, at best, mention fight club and maybe negotiate the same rules, leather or no armor with wooden swords, but this is not an honor battle of forced apart partners nor is it a grief stricken apology to make the game end.

And I think one of them will die laughing as they go. Maybe disappointed but proud because they almost got the other and they did it together

I forgot to tell you guys that i finished my Stardew Valley designs 😋 im trying to use Tumblr more lets see how long it lasts

Do yall ever get so happy while watching a video that incorporates aspects of a fandom you like but are rarely talked about that you run laps around your room? Squeal and kick your feet? Jump in place?

No? Just me?

Lizzie and Scott are both sacrificial lambs, but like.

Lizzie is a sacrificial lamb in the sense of. A wounded animal fighting against its bindings, because it isn't fair for its life to be reduced, time and time again, to what cleansing flames can offer other people.

On the other hand, Scott is a sacrificial lamb in the sense of. An animal who follows you and lays down in your lap as you prepare to slaughter it, because it's accepted that it's only worth is in the gain of other people.

If this makes sense to anyone.

Mother, why are you hurting yourself with onions?

so sad no one did any lore with real life or really took it seriously and like, i get why, it was hilarious and goofy and ridiculous but also it's not like that ever stopped anyone on the other seasons. And like. The ending really is quite poetic

Like Scott is just standing there on like 1 heart, not eating, just waiting for Cleo to finish him bc as she says he'd never kill her, and Cleo is laughing and fumbling for their sword but truly they don't want to kill him either and then! Just like a zombie assisted Scott in his win and got the final kill on Ren, after the first season where Scott and Cleo really allied properly (so ZombieCleo helped Scott win from the grave), now a zombie sneaks up on Scott and kills him, getting Cleo their win finally like. I know it was only april's fools, and I know no one is as obsessed with Cleo and Scott's dynamic as I am but guys guys it's so poetic, it's so good, where are the dramatic animatics? Please!

The freaks!!!! Do u think they kissed

I know we're all thinking about celestial symbolism for joel rn, so despite the fact that i think it would be very funny if we all just used the fucking car itself, i propose "The Chariot(eer)", a constellation known as Auriga, which is latin for chariot(eer), because it fits both the car and the celestial theme.

Bonus points: it's right by the Gemini constellation, and it's biggest star is Capella, the goat.
