okay wait laughingstock concept Incoming: so im imagining some of the neighbors (maybe Julie & Frank) noticing that Barnaby & Howdy are a lil fruity, yk yk. and Julie's like damn, i guess we have to play matchmaker here.
so naturally they wind up getting the whole neighborhood involved. everybody's a wingman here. Poppy's dropping hints when Howdy drops off groceries, Wally is constantly asking Barnaby to go get him things from the bodega, etc etc. Howdy and Barnaby are facing this sudden change in town-wide behavior with slight concern and bemusement
eventually - lets say Julie, Sally, and Wally - get Barnaby into the bodega and then abruptly leave like "don't have too much fun without us you two *wink wink nudge nudge*". once they're gone (read: very obviously hiding outside & watching through the window) Barnaby & Howdy turn to each other like:
Barnaby: you think we should tell them we're already married?
Howdy: let them have their fun - they'll figure it out eventually
I just love (sarcastic) how some of the Obey Me fandom thinks they're fashion experts.
Apparently Solomon's masquerade outfit is ugly and doesn't suit him at all and looks like it was meant for Asmo. (Gotta love that casual Asmo hate.)
Welp... I'm apparently going to try to get Solomon's masquerade outfit because not only does it look good on him but it has the added benefit of hiding his face under a lovely mask. I can't believe I'm doing all this work for a character I don't like. X is an awful place full of awful takes. The things I put myself through for more Mammon fan stuffs.....
On the plus side I have never felt so confident about my own sense of fashion. I always felt kinda weird about liking most of Obey Me's outfits because I always see people saying that they're ugly or unfashionable but now I know it's because those people just have no taste. Yay for learning new things!
also also I know everyone likes to talk about how good of an archon Venti is because he left mondstadt to do its own thing and hey look Zhongli's doing the same now with his retirement but I also like how the story shows it isn't without flaws, with so much freedom in the city it's all too easy to take control with power, Mondstadt's people may be free but they also don't have a god to actually uphold the ideal they stand for and how personal freedoms conflict, discrimination(eg. against Eula and her clan) is allowed because the people are free to do whatever they want, the fatui really wormed their way into mondstadt during the webtoon + nearly did with Davalin bc the people of mondstadt do whatever they want so Jean is overworked and the knights are ineffective(according to Diluc), and how mondstadt might have been the least free place for the common people during the Lawrences rule despite being the region governed by the archon of freedom
Zhongli at least first tested his people were ready before retiring, Venti kinda acended, organized a bunch of celebrations for his people, then left them to have fun with their newfound freedom only interveining when things get really bad
Well, there's college, and then there's my jobs, and then there's the main project, and then there's the 3 side projects, and then there's the back burner projects and then the secret farther back burner projects and then the-
But it's not really that much. I mean, one needs to save time to dissociate for 8hrs a day. #selfcare
halfway through my s2 rewatch and wow is it meh. just super underwhelming and lukewarm. like im loving the saffi screen time (is it even star trek picard if those ladies aren’t walking around just miserable af lmao) and the fact that the original cast is still around—in a way? everyone’s been disappeared or reduced to the thinnest versions of themselves more like—but everything else is yikes. because what the fuck is this rios plot. just rancid. bruk up his head during transport and then said here’s some deep racism. as a treat. and elnor??? oh my god. baby boy rise. walk it off. i know you got it in you. wasted my mans time and for what. elnor and cris team up was right there. why not take the easy way round? why is the borg queen playing it so sexy? (not complaining). where is SOJI. why are they dragging this two parter into 10 episodes. i was so busy shitting on s3 that i forgot that s2 was its own monster lol.
