so like I haven't seen any of you geniuses (I mean that sincerely, y'all are freaking brilliant 99% of the time) make this comparison yet, but it was pretty fucking clear to me from the get-go that Roderick and Madeline are Macbeth and Lady Macbeth. I'm not sure if this was an intentional move on the writers' part, but their dynamic just screams mastermind power-hungry queen and her not-quite-as-smart but in the end equally ruthless king (she even calls him a "king" towards the end, and he calls her a "queen"), who both end up being wracked with so much guilt they start hallucinating and seeing the ghosts of the people they've killed/caused the deaths of (tho that's more Roderick's thing). I'm just saying, it's a pretty cool comparison to make, even tho they're siblings not a married couple, I feel like they fit the bill pretty damn closely and I would love to hear @flanaganfilm address it in an interview at some point🩸

A collection of random snippets from Roderick Strong's LiveJournal, 2004-2005
So, unlike people like Punk or Joe, he never used his LJ extensively; there are still some fun/interesting posts from 20 to 21-year-old Roddy, though. Screenshots under the cut (with alt text and occasional commentary):
[the way he types always makes me laugh. So many exclamation points...]
[More exclamation points. Also, didn't know he worked CZW.]
[first time he worked IWA...wild.]
[first PWG match! Also him going out with Steen, Generico, and his "best buddy" Shelley, LMAO]
[Jamie Gibson becoming ROH champ, Punk leaving the indies, Roddy debuting the trunks, and them going to The Weiners Circle, which is thankfully not NSFW to read about.]
[Watching the Joe/Kobashi match backstage must've been wild. Also aww his mentor match!]

Sequel stack challenge
Taken from @the-forest-library’s dash
Here’s some of my favorite sequels I’ve read over the years:
Doctor Sleep by Stephen King ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Deeper by Roderick Gordon and Brian Williams ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
(Side note: I’m forever mad at how hard/expensive is to get ahold of this saga, I still haven’t read it all because I can’t find the 4th book)
The Vampire Diaries. The Return: Shadow Souls by L.J. Smith ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Here’s to Us by Becky Albertalli and Adam Silvera ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

oh OOOOOOH their deaths mirror each other. Tamerlane and Leo are both driven to what looks like suicide chasing hallucinations around an apartment that architecturally represents their psyche (as they destroy it), shortly after leaving/planning to leave their loving partner. (Both of them invite her in, at first. Both of them want her there. But now she's in the mirrors. She's in the walls.)
Vic and Camille are both killed/driven to death by Vic's experiments, their rivalry leading to both their deaths (Camille to prove it doesn't work, Vic to prove it does), immediately after they get left by people they are using in professional/personal ways - Camille hires Toby and Tina to sleep with them, Vic dates Ali to get her to work with her on the heart mesh.
Perry and Frederick both die in the same warehouse, looking at the ceiling, waiting for death to come to them - Perry with a look of ecstasy, Frederick in terror. Both of them are in that warehouse because they've been humiliated by Roderick and are now determined to prove themselves. Both get led here by drugs. Both involve the mutilation of an innocent, Morrie. Both of them see Verna not as another character, but something like her true self. And there's the parallel between all the mercy that Verna offers Perry - the most she offers any of them, other than Lenore - and her glee in explaining to Roderick exactly why he deserves to die like this.
And then you get the final pairing/quartet of deaths - Eliza Usher + William Longfellow vs Madeline and Roderick which is obvious but oh my god. oh my god you guys. Eliza's wall of crucifixes and clinging to Christian faith and the sanctity of pain as a way of hoping for reward after death vs Roderick putting Madeline through the agony of vivisection to 'honour' her + grant her Egyptian immortality. Both William and Roderick eat their young. Fuck.
