the lover - 1992

Army of Lovers or Revolt of the Perverts (1979) dir. Rosa von Praunheim

pj knows the exact way into hazel’s heart, i think

Obsessed with lovers and piners calling the object of their affections their best friend. Like yessss blur the lines between platonic and romantic love. show how important they are to you in a multifaceted way. Cover up your feelings with another kind of love that is just as true. One type of love does not negate the other and but tragedy can rip both out from under you single handedly, and it will hurt so much more that way. Losing a friend and a lover. Gaining both and not needing any labels for what they are. Using labels but having it be so much more than a title. Were they friends before they were lovers? Or were they lovers whose friendship grew inside of their love? Unclear! Who cares!

part of what made across the spiderverse so perfect was that it was largely centered on WHO spider-man is, in EVERY universe. not just Miles, or Peter, or Gwen, or Miguel. Spider-Man. it was about the ESSENCE of Spider-man. Spider-Man is love for humanity. Spider-Man is having to sacrifice and lose everything you love for the mask. Spider-Man is rebellion against the powers that be. Spider-Man is about trying to do both, in every universe. about not taking no for an answer or listening when everyone tells you your destiny. refusing to choose between the things and people you love. that’s why Spider-Man is so compelling: they want everything, even though everyone else tells them they can’t have it. that it’s not meant to be. and they just. keep. trying. keep getting back up. they just keep going, man.

forgot to mention one of my absolute favorite small details in "chalice of the gods" and it's the fact that annabeth never makes blue food because she sees it as "something sacred" between percy and sally.

like not only does this show how well annabeth knows percy and sally, but also, we don't know too much about how annabeth and percy's first month or so as an actual couple went, from her making him a blue cupcake for his 16th birthday to recognizing the blue food as something not to be touched because she now knows the history behind the blue food.

just percy and annabeth understanding each other's pasts and traumas on a level that no one else can ever dream to touch.
