fionna's world being represented by a dandelion makes so much sense ... they're weeds. yet people make wishes through them, changing their whole meaning from something meant to be destroyed to something hopeful.
dandelions are also resilient and it makes sense that something associated with them would. you know. perservere despite the destruction caused by the scarab.
but ultimately i think what REALLY made me tear up over this is that dandelions are really boring plants. when you're a kid you blow on them and make your wish but they're not eyecatching or anything but still, fionna's final wish was for her old world to still exist as it was when she left it (> plain and simple. boring even).
like the moment she realized she would lose her friends, and that her friends might forget each other if the world got its magic back, she immediately decided she didn't want it and I think that ties back to the dandelion metaphor so well... like, do you really need magic to be real to find it everywhere? or can you turn something boring into something magical?

Omg this is gonna sound crazy and underdeveloped as hell but i admit it: I JUST WANT SOMEONE WHO’S CRAZY OBSESSED WITH ME TO ENTER MY LIFE! Is that so much to ask? I feel insane for even stating such a thing! Maybe its some sort of midlife crisis. I feel that, as a person with majority capricorn in my chart, i shouldnt want such a crazy person to enter my life and ruin my routine. But dammit I just want the same loyalty i give to others. Just a little bit of unhinged obsession with me, just a tad! I’m begging.. 🧎🏽please feel free to laugh at me as I’m laughing at myself right now for wanting such a dangerous energy in my life. 😭💀💀 I dated a scorpio once and i was lowkey disappointed he wasnt as crazy for me as i was for him. Like, where was the crazy? The passion? The infatuation and monopolization? pls… im so delulu at this point what the hell am I even saying 🤦🏽
PLEASE YOU'RE SO VALID I feel like the constant struggle of people with Capricorn placements (especially Sun/Venus) + Venus-Saturn aspects is finding people that actually reciprocate the loyalty, effort, and energy we give! And not only that, finding people that actually appreciate everything we do for them. Because us Capricorn placements are always doing soooo much shit for others, whether it's behind the scenes or very obvious, and very few people actually notice it 😭 Trust me when I say I have felt your pain so hard on the not reciprocating!! I think my Gem Moon/Sag Mercury makes me not like the obsession thing despite being a Scorpio lmaaaao (I went on a date with an "obsessive" person once and he gave me such an ick I blocked him on everything FLJKDJFDLKFJ), but I totally get what you mean.
You don't sound delusional at all - you are SO valid for wanting a passionate, intense, loving romance where you're catered to and cared for for once!!! I have no doubts that if you're a Capricorn (especially a Capricorn placement woman), you've spent the majority of your life breaking your back showing love and support to others and never feeling that same energy back. I completely get it. I promise you will find your person!! <3 In the meantime, show yourself that love, set those boundaries and don't go above and beyond for a-holes that won't do the same for you!! I LOVE U<3 I'M ROOTING FOR U!!! (also I feel like if you want an obsessed partner, u gotta find like an Aries Venus. Like a Taurus Sun Aries Venus, maybe Pisces Sun Aries Venus - those mfs are the most intense, loyal, dedicated to their partners people alive!! Esp the Taurus Sun Aries Venus... we gotta find u one of them!!! I feel like they'll tick all your boxes omg)

One thing that goes crazy is those distant screaming calls for help you can hear in the background of off to the races. Like the whole basic premise is this lolita inspired dynamic between this young lonely girl and this much older man where she swears that nobody else in the world would even have her except for him and this in itself is a feat because she’s ‘crass’ and has a ‘broke down life’ etc and the whole thing is entrenched in denial. He loves her in spite of all these things wrong with her, all he asks is that she does what he wants, he’s like an omnipresent figure for her - watches her in the bathroom, getting dressed etc. and the almost hyperbolic way she describes herself smitten with him and how she believes she needs him, she’s nothing without him, the dependency borders on the paternal. It’s not that she’s unable to leave it’s that she believes she has nowhere else to go, he’s made it so she’s so enmeshed that she simply thinks she could not survive without him. he’s ‘saving’ her from herself and she’s in even more debt to him for it (sorry that im misbehaving!!!) and imo she’s almost a parody of herself bc she doubles down on this narrative that’s she’s a seductress and insane and crazy and she needs looking after by this mature older man when in reality she’s so troubled, under constant observation but she twists it so it’s like she’s running away to be caught by him rather than to escape. And in the end her calls for help can barely be heard under the passionate repetition that he’s her one true love
