I'm Sorry For The Delay

I'm sorry for the delay

Day #14

Hi,,,,,,,,,school sucks that’s all i have to say

Im not very happy with this one, but oh well, aquarium date

He's lost all his joy and whimsy

At least he got the top score on most of the arcade machines 🤷

GGY theory dump that i already posted in the replies to my fic (where it was brought up) but i wanted to post it here too cuz i have strong feelings on it and i haven’t seen anyone bring it up (if they have and i just missed that everyone acknowledged this at some point, forgive me lol)

FUCKING FINBARR. i don’t trust this guy AT ALL and i don’t think we’re supposed to

like the evidence is in fact right there in the book (the freddy thing IMMEDIATELY AFTER explaining the ggy thing to finbarr, rab suddenly catching on despite being distracted w ellis and having no clue about the paper ISN’T weird to yall?)

but also! Finbarr (Finnbhear) is the king of the fairies yes, this is explained in the book. WHAT THEY DON’T EXPLAIN, is he’s known for leading young people (“young maidens” but still relevant) to trick them and trap them forever. don’t believe me?

relevant last line is very relevant. sure tony’s not a girl, but i don’t think the actual figure’s intentions (for obvious reasons.) are important as much as the theme of takes notice of someone, takes them away forever.

again, something fae in general are known for, not just this guy. is that not weird? that a series with predominantly Christian themes (ffs, ucn is Hell.) suddenly has this? idk maybe it’s just cuz it’s one of my favorite interests, but that’s a very interesting name to pick when that’s the first result that comes from researching it.

also lil side note: rabbit/hares (it’s usually hares but shhh) are such an important symbol in celtic mythos cuz the represent luck n stuff but they’re also heavily associated with the Otherworld and the fae. hm.

especially since the other stuff is relevant too (crystal’s appearance is how An Morrigan is usually described, how she’s also a Goddess of Prophecy [SOMETHING TONY LITERALLY DOES AT THE BEGINNING OF THE BOOK. BOY LITERALLY PROPHESIED HIS DEATH] like crystal’s warning?? prophecy.) so i’m not even just looking into this too far, you’re probably SUPPOSED TO ACT LIKE TONY AND RESEARCH.

i mean the book literally says itself at the beginning that it’s a mystery wrapped in subplots that seem irrelevant but are actually quite important at understanding the key themes

i hate them i hate them i hate them i want them obliterated immediately :)

The thing is, when museums and cultural institutions or researchers adopt memes in a "How do you do, fellow kids" way, that's adorable like my grandma when she's misusing emojis. However when some megacorp does it to sell me evil products or some influencer is trying to get me to buy nonsense skincare mud or cyberpunk looking face masks or weightloss pills, I think that's evil incarnate and their name goes into the Death Note (very mindful, very demure)
