SkekTek: I'm Playing A New Drinking Game. It's Called "every Time I'm Depressed, Take A Drink."

SkekTek: I'm playing a new drinking game. It's called "every time I'm depressed, take a drink."

SkekSa: That game already exists. It's called alcoholism.

Crackship Idea:

I haven't interacted with The Dark Crystal fandom in forever but it's been on my brain.

Anyway, the idea of Skeksil's true love being Skeksa just tickles a fancy I didn't know I had. Kinda has the same appeal to Skeksil x Skekmal with the prestigious member pining over the one who is "wild and free".

Plus, it's just juicy juicy angst.

I might dive more into this who knows.

SkekSo: Sometimes, even the devil on my shoulder asks "what the fuck are you doing?".

Trial By Stone - Dark Crystal scene

I love how this movie tells story and histories by detail, look at the stone, its nicked, scratched, damaged, and worn down in some areas, the stone and this contest have been in use for some time, implying that the goal of the trial is not neccessarily to break the stone, but to hit it in a way that impresses the other Skeksis, and to keep doing so until all of them come around to one contestant or the other, thus its a contest of endurance, who can outlast the other and/or win over the crowd, and that also shows precisely why the general wins, by “shattering” the conventions of the ritual by breaking the stone, in doing so he not only proves himself stronger, but by destroying the central piece of the contest he makes it so there is no point in continuing

SkekSo: Everything I say is backed up by whatever the opposite of facts and logic is.

SkekMal: You're annoying.

UrVa: Then stop holding my hand.

SkekMal: No.
