#different types of lonely- David (saddest wettest little meow meow ever) is alone in a way Carpenter isn't
Text
I'm relistening to I am in Eskew at the same time as the Silt Verses come out and it's so fun seeing ideas introduced in Eskew resurface in TSV, like I just finished ep. 24 and the way the History Society works is so much like our new scary war saint!!! Obsessed
#i love you authors with frightening ideas coming at them from multiple angles#eskew productions you have my whole heart#both shows are obviously very different from each other but i absolutely love the wet gross meatiness of the horror in both#they're also both quite lonely shows imo#different types of lonely- David (saddest wettest little meow meow ever) is alone in a way Carpenter isn't#but Carpenter is so phenomenally lonely in a way that only seems to ho away when she is by herself#Falkner and Riyo are also pretty lonely people but to me it doesn't run as harsh as David and Carpenter#all this to say I adore these strange worlds and their stranger people and the gorgeous prose they're written in#another David/Carpenter parallel- being so deeply loved by a thing that loves wrongly#I'm trying to remember something i heard in a Jacob Geller video about the way houses love their people but they were not designed to love#and so they are haunted instead#anyway that's Eskew and the Trawllerman#also obsessed with the way Faulkner is fratricidally desperate for the Trawllerman to love him as well#and the way Riyo dismisses Eskew out of hand like she simply does not care for the City bc even though David hates Eskew#he cannot help it- he needs to be a part of Eskew he cannot let it go until the end#I'm insane. anyway#i am in eskew#the silt verses#tsv#i don't think there's an acronym for eskew
