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.
Solitary Obsessions of Revenge. Thoughts / Psychology below
One thing observed in people (particularly prisoners) who are forced into Solitary Confinement is that they sometimes develop horrible, all-consuming obsessions with one specific feeling or thing. I learned this from my therapist, who explained that this can be... literally anything. From obsessing over the feeling of your bladder being empty to hyper focusing on the feeling of pain. These obsessions occur due to the brain attempting to create stimuli in any way it can. When you are deprived of anything 'new' your brain has to Make 'new' things for it to experience. All of this is to say I think the idea of Narinder having this same desperate focus on his anger and need for revenge would make sense.
Especially because being in solitary confinement essentially rots away at the parts of your brain that store memories. I'm not an expert, don't quote me, but I believe the reason is because those pathways just aren't being recalled. So they degrade over time, and you lose access to that skill. Recalling past events becomes really difficult, and-- imagining this with Narinder-- this could be a reason he sees his siblings in SUCH a negative light. Even sparing their betrayal, he may not remember many happy times with them at all. Only the painful parts. (Which is a neat and horrible parallel to Shamura. Ouch.)
On that note, I've heard people describe Narinder as 'cold and calculating' but I think this isn't true, personally. He's always read to me as a more 'do then think' kind of person-- Specifically in the situation he's in. Which makes sense, following my narrative. He's been trapped for hundreds of years to the point where all he cares about is the ending of his siblings lives. It's not cold revenge, it's desperate, clawing, NEED to see them gone. A mind fueled by a thousand years of solitary torture isn't a reasonable one. I think theres a lot of pain and hurt that needs to be reconciled within himself until he can feel like a person who doesn't desire revenge and bloodshed to keep going.
"im tired of living through major historical events" is now "dear lord please let me witness a high profile political assassination in the next 1-2 years. amen"
no but why does bartholomew fit mumbo
I don’t know how she got Joel but she did. I have also now ranted to her abt it and might have convinced her to watch it :D
@kyoukorpse inspired me to give my period pain to narinder. Like to charge, reblog to transfer.
friendly reminder to all the dream stans still shooting for him: you don't know him. it's that simple.
it's extremely telling that tommy is being defended by all his old friends, current friends, editors, people he's worked with, family, fans, etc., meanwhile in dream's case, not even his best friends are coming to his defense. sapnap tuned into tubbo's stream, and both him and george have been radio silent throughout this whole thing.
the only people rushing to dream's defense and excusing his absolutely deplorable behaviour at this point are the fans. the fans who don't know him, who haven't worked with him or seen him behind the scenes.
he's manipulated you into going to bat for him, even if you don't know him. meanwhile, the people who do know him, who have worked with him and experienced him behind the scenes, are trying to tell you the truth about him.
this is not just "tommy doesn't like dream so he's spreading lies". this is everybody who knows dream, coming forward with their experiences and holding him accountable, and the only people who aren't willing to accept it are the fans who don't know him.
he is manipulating you.
“death doesn’t discriminate” wrong. christina aguilera’s beautiful on the bagpipes
I gotta admit, I find it really funny that the most popular wlw and mlm Splatoon ships (not counting agent 3 x agent 8 since those are customizable characters) are “trust fund baby soundcloud rapper x child soldier military deserter” and “two rancid old men who kind of hate each other”, respectively. Love really does win.
