NOBODY ASKED but… Obviously Simon’s arc in adventure time solidified the series as one of greatest of all time (and I’m so hyped for this ice king sadness renaissance) but now I’m thinking of OTHER Adventure Time moments that rewired my brain as a kid. In no particular order:

1. “Once the strong guys got it how they liked it they said ‘this is fair now. This is the law.’ Once they were winning they changed the rules”. They really had the cartoon dog say that on tv in 2014.

2. “People get built different. We don’t have to understand it, we just gotta respect it”

3. The entirety of All The Little People. That shit was absolutely nuts for a kids show but also like…. I can’t articulate the lesson I just know there was one and it haunted me. The danger of the human ego. Hubris. Irreverence. Don’t play god bro.

4. Lady and Peebles. When PB ripped Ricardio’s leg off and bashed his skull in with it. And it was so hardcore they edited it out of the episode. Bro. I remember watching that after school one day and how my jaw just DROPPED at a PRINCESS being so brutal. They let her be so fucking angry and that was a game changer.

5. [Finn, about a horrific memory] “that one’s going in the vault. Aaaaaaaaaandd. It’s gone.” I quote that CONSTANTLY. It’s a great way to bring levity to a bad situation, but also forces me to go “hey wait a sec that’s not gonna work forever”. Things don’t stay in the vault.

6. Puhoy. He lived an entire life in that pillow world. He had kids. And then it’s just gone like a dream.

7. The deer. It was probably my first real introduction to horror. The hand wiggle. You all know exactly what I’m referencing. Were the candy people stuck in that well for 6 months???

8. What Was Missing!! Obviously now because it foreshadowed (and confirmed past) Bubbline, but back then just because it was so good??? IMO, this is the episode that defined WHO our main cast was, and how their relationships needed to grow for them to be content. It set up the next 6 years of the show! Plus it gave us 2 absolute BANGERS. Ugh i rewatched that recording so many times it wasn’t even funny.

9. Ghost Princess. Really just for the line where he sounds like he’s gonna shit his pants remembering his death and then in a clear narrator voice he’s like “I was a broken man.”

10. The pajama war episode. Now I’m doing this from memory so I could be wrong, but I think this really marks the start of Finn growing up. “I’ve really enjoyed just… hanging out with you.” The ability to start over with someone you’ve got complicated history with. The kindness. The growth from both of them!! It’s a direct parallel of episode 1 but their tones couldn’t be more different and I love it.

11. The slow and horrifying realization that The Mushroom War was nuclear Armageddon. Mushroom clouds. That went so far over my head as a kid even though they reference it constantly. It finally clicked during “I remember you”. Which I am NOT gonna go into because holy fuck that’s like 18 posts on its own.

12. Goliad! A child mirroring EVERYTHING they see, for better or worse. Seeing Jake in a bad moment screaming at the kids and goliad absorbing that behavior. Seeing she can use fear to control people. Also PB was Fucking Crazy! Her line “I’m not gonna live forever… I would if I could” is even more unhinged when we learn (like years later) that she’s already 900 years old. But she does physically age so I guess there’s that. The Suitor also falls into this category of episodes.

Ok getting into some of the more talked about moments

1. OK I LIED I have to talk about I remember you. I was 11 years old. I turned on the new adventure time episode like usual. 10 minutes later I was grappling with a grief I had never imagined before. Absolutely BAWLING not just for Simon and Marceline (the PLOT), but for what it showed me. The reality that every kid tries not to think about: your loved ones will leave you someday, even if they don’t want to. It’s an episode that becomes more powerful with every year I get older. To get a bit personal, dementia has completely taken my grandparents from me. I’ve seen sides of my grandfather that should never have existed, and I must constantly forgive him for what he does… now that he doesn’t remember me. And someday it’ll be my parents. That’s just the way of the world, ya know? Anyways, I remember my mom got home right as the credits were rolling and we had a long talk about keeping people alive with memory, mortality, and how the future was far away and we should decide on dinner lmao.

2. The Hall of Egress. I was almost 15. Life was changing. I was changing, and it was strange and frightening. That feeling where you know you’re losing your childhood but you just want to cling to it. Follow the same old familiar path, stick with what’s comfortable. But life doesn’t work that way. It took me years to really understand this episode and it’s symbolism. Honestly I still don’t think I could fully explain it. It’s like. How do I put this. I was so glad to be in the target age group in that moment. I was so glad that something I was growing up with was assuring me “you’re changing, but we’re changing too”. And isn’t that the theme of adventure time? Everything stays, but it still changes.

3. The absolute horror of Ferns existence. He’s Finn, but he’s wrong and warped. All those memories of the people he loves and they can’t stand to be in the same room as him.

4. Susan Strong. The introduction of a RUNNING PLOT. The show up to that point had really been so goofy and so monster of the week. I think the only really plot heavy episode before this one was It Came From the Nightosphere? And then suddenly they call into question the fact that Finn really is the ONLY HUMAN in all of OOO. And then… is he? It was SUCH a departure from the usual tone. Ending that episode with him reaching below her hat and gasping in shock, but never telling the audience what he found. And then she’s just gone. Which leads us to Islands!

5. Min and Marty. Second saddest episode in the entirety of adventure time, made worse because you know exactly how this family is gonna end up. There’s SO MUCH to dissect about Martins behavior in the series. A reformed con artist receives a traumatic brain injury while attempting to save his son. They’re both lost at sea, and he never looks for him. Was it the emotional trauma? Was it the physical damage? Meanwhile a mother loses her husband and her child in a single night and never EVER learns why. Nobody but Martin knows what happened that night. Also Finns fear of the ocean from season 1 is finally explained. 7 years of ignoring Finns origins and then they throw you THIS??? Watching it live was unreal.

Anyways I’m sure I’ll think of more. I might add on to this later for my own sake lmao, but I’d love to hear other peoples formative moments, quotes, episodes, etc. I really just needed to dump this information out of my brain so I can get on with my week.

#If you see this you’re obligated to comment an adventure time moment that lives rent free in your head #or don’t it’s your life babe #I have nobody in my life who has watched adventure time and therefore I must ramble here to myself #adventure time #princess bubblegum #marceline #ice king #finn the human #fern #Fionna and cake #this is my life #bubbline

sciles is the “you came” “you called” romance trope except it’s both of them all of the time, and no that doesn’t make me emotional at all it’s fine I’m totally normal about them don’t look at me

#on one hand I’m emotional but on the other. giggling a bit #they’re sort of dramatic #like it happens with them so often that their continuous affectionate surprise when the other shows up… everyone else is like ‘okay guys’#‘let’s wrap it up shall we’#imagine them living their domestic life and in the middle of the night Scott has to go help like Liam or Isaac or something #Stiles shows up n he’s like ‘omg bae? 🥹’#bc sneaking out works better when you don’t share a bed. and Stiles is like ‘I’d never let u take this on alone babe…..’#Isaac (GAGGING): You drove for like half a mile #Malia: You guys never turn your locations off it’s not that hard—#you get me. they’re dramatic. but also it is SO SERIOUS #IT IS NO LAUGHING MATTER. but also giggles. but also DONT LAUGH THIS IS SERIOUS.#teen wolf #scott mccall #stiles stilinski #sciles #scott x stiles #toasty talks

Just finished watching Wilde (1997) and boy do I feel for Robbie Ross.

He really said ‘let me love and support that artist man with all that I have, even if he doesn’t love me back.’

If you want your relationship to be healthy and long-lasting, get yourself a man like that.

#jfc #i am having feelings #oscar wilde #wilde 1997 #robbie ross #my babe #michael sheen #stephen fry #jude law #i don’t know anything about Wilde’s life but if this is true then he treated Robbie like garbage #man why u gotta take the boy for granted like that. he was the one tending to ur wounds when u we’re bleeding. not Bosie #get your shit together #this man also clearly was polyamorous and I am HERE FOR IT #llved the wife and kids. didn’t know he had actual offspring either.#bisexual disaster #love love love it

just a gentle reminder that high or low note count does not determine whether you are a good or bad writer. i repeat: having a lot of notes or no notes at all on your writing does not make you good or bad at writing. it does not mean your work is less or more than someone else’s. separate your work from the note count, notes don’t equal talent. the beautiful paragraphs and prose you crafted and spent your time on to share with the world equals talent!!!!

#so in conclusion no one should feel cocky over high notes and no one should feel bad over low notes #because babes we are all equally talented here we all have made a voice for ourselves in our writing #even if 2 people read it that’s still fucking amazing #life is short and you’re creating!!! using your time to add some good to this hellsite!!!#be proud of that be happy about that #ignore the notes don’t even look at them #look at the beautiful writing you spent your time on #not everyone has the power to be able to write and create and the fact that you are or are trying to? baby i’m making you a medal!!

there was an insane little moment yesterday where I almost got kind of out of sorts with my boyfriend because I just spent all weekend with my six former housemates whose varying personalities, gifts, and strengths so perfectly complement one another that when we’re all together we create some kind of powerhouse of over-educated feminine genius capable of getting to the bottom of any crisis compassionately, swiftly, and permanently. and I was feeling miffed that my boyfriend can’t do that…all on his own.

#me with narrowed eyes: babe….why don’t you have ALL the strengths #but actually I always knew this would happen haha #we’re so massively overpowered as a group! it’s unbeatable!#but that’s why you need more people in your life than just your significant other 🤷🏻‍♀️#in which cate tells stories

Random thought-

Did anyone else’s friend group in high school just wake up completely batshit one day and you were just like…okay I guess this is happening, why not.

I mean. We were. A very motley bunch of deeply fucked up kids from deeply fucked up places but. Other People claim this was Abnormally Abnormal. I had no frame of reference tbf I’d never had friends before, I barely knew how to pass as Relatively Human, I didn’t even try for Socialized or Well Adjusted.

I’m remembering that one year where everyone randomly decided sailor moon Was Real, and was our friend Jess. Something something, the school was gonna blow up and they’re gonna save everyone except staff because they wanted us to wear IDs and were trying to push for uniforms. (Seriously fuck both ids and uniforms but that is not the point) And also then assigned the rest of us roles. I was small and violent so I got Saturn, which still cracks me up ngl but— what triggered this. WHO started it. Why did not a single one of us go ‘this is fine but I need you to admit we are actively choosing to role play right now. As a group. Tell me you don’t believe this is fact.’ still have no idea. Showed up at the breakfast hangout spot and everyone was like oh my god I had a dream, did you awaken as a sailor yet? I was half sure I somehow did drugs with my cereal that day. And then it. Stopped being talked about. Just as suddenly.

Can’t remember if that’s the same year half of the group suddenly also claimed to have like, vampire blood and/or be housing several people in one brain for (it’s not cheating if I’m two people) ….reasons

The funniest part of this to me, now, is that none of us knew what the fuck d&d was yet. Obviously, we should have.

Man. I wanna say that was peak ridiculousness but. I don’t think I can. It’s been like 20 years since high school, I have a long list of stupid shit. Oh my god it’d been 20 years since high school what the fuck even is time.

#momma talks #I have no excuse #my poll #polls #no I don’t talk to anyone from high school. no one was talking to each other by graduation lmao #from what I know most of them have retained their wierd and managed to get into a better life #I wish them well! I just wanna know who was starting all the shinanigans #why did I never know what was going on #nothing like rocking up from skipping math and having your then bf be like #okay Saturn our task is this—-#babe what the fuck?#that’s the same guy who decided to pretend to be possessed to have two partners btw. he was. well. he certainly was.#I love saying things and then realizing I sound insane. listen this is very 90s baby behavior. and we counted damnit we were barely alive #in the 80s #I’m too tired to self regulate someone take the internet away from me

TW: Rant, discussion about weight, body image issues, shitty adults, fatphobia

—————————————————————————

Looked at some old photos of me from high school/right after high school and it has left me seething.

A lot of adults in my childhood kept pushing that I was too fat and I needed to lose weight, but looking back at the old photos I had the realization that they had no fucking idea what they were talking about, because I wasn’t even that fat. Like, I was definitely plus size, but they were out here acting like I was going to die in my 20’s or get some long term health issues from my weight when I looked like a healthy teenager.

I have been having body issues for a couple of months now, but I’ve just realized that how I’ve been criticizing myself sound a lot like echoes from those same adults so now I have to exorcise those fucking demons.

#upcloseandpersonal #shout out to the fat babes who lived through the early 2000’s #we are so fucking strong and i hope ya’ll are thriving and living your best life #early 2000’s brand of fatphobia can go straight back to hell #and so can the person who made BMI #tw fatphobia #tw body image issues #tw weight talk #tw mental health #people who support ED’s don’t interact #if you hate fat people in general DNI

watching debates on abortion rights is so insane to me. you’ll have pro lifers say stuff like getting an abortion is the same as murdering a born child and then that very same person agreeing that women should never be shamed for getting an abortion because “it’s a difficult decision”. girl you believe them to be murderers? I can’t think of anyone who should feel more ashamed than people who kill their children, it’s just that I don’t think abortion is the same as murder. Things aren’t adding up, you’re not as good of a person as you think you are babe

#come the fuckkkkkk on. ‘it’s the same as murder’ ok either you don’t actually believe that #OR you don’t think people who kill their children should feel ashamed. which is it babe!!!! which is it #I’m so tired of having these discussions where people try to force their morals (often heavily rooted in religion. which. fuck off) on me #and then proceed to do shit like this. and I’m the bad guy for prioritising the parents’ autonomy? ooooooooookay!#like I know it’s such a difficult philosophical question as well but I don’t want to discuss with people like that. sorry #also I know I sound like a dick but the arguments are just soooo repetitive. ‘you know a Fetus has a heartbeat at x weeks’#yeah so did your uncle mark you took off life support to go skiing with your family #idk there’s just so many things that can be scientifically ‘disproven’. pretty sure you can get a few heart cells to beat in a petri dish #it’s such an important conversation to have I know that but some people are so uninformed it makes me sick #ugh sorry middle ground is making me angry #emmys thoughts

Hello there ☺️ you know I’ve wanted to message you for awhile and tell you that I love all your stories. I’ve read your entire master list multiple times. I will admit I went out tonight and am a little tipsy (which is why I am finally messaging you because I am a little braverr) but I love reading your stuff and even just looking at your blog. Makes me feel a little less alone

Babe when I tell you this message genuinely carried me through my entire day. Oh my goodness. Thank you so much! Seriously I’m not at all scary.

Message me any time you want! Day or night I’m always ready (Randy) to chat about fics and our fav blorbos. I promise I’m not actually coherent and at all together or neat as a person. Whatever image you have conjured of me irl is not true at all. No Rizz. No Game. Complete loser right here.

I’m basically four quokkas in a trench coat. You’re so sweet leaving such an amazing message like this. @h0nest Appreciate you times a thousand billion my love. 💕💕💕💗💕

#i love this more than life itself #I love this so hard babe #thank you for your bravery #but seriously pls don’t be frightened I am actually not at all scary #I’m a wet lettuce #thank you for sticking with me #for reading my masterlist #so cute I wanna cry #punkwrites #bless youuu babe #I hope to keep up the good work
