Theo Trying To Give Liam A Good, Emotional Birthday Gift But Is Too Minimalistic To Get Liam Anything

theo trying to give liam a good, emotional birthday gift but is too minimalistic to get liam anything else other than what he needs and is insecure about it.

a pair of socks cause liam’s been complaining his feet are cold

a new toothbrush cause he notices that liam’s has been used to all hell

new lacrosse gloves cause liam keeps ripping through his

and a gift card to the local coffee shop so liam can get his “sugary, coked up barely-coffee” as theo puts it

but liam doesn’t care because all liam cares about is the fact that theo knew what he needed and found solutions to all his problems. in more ways than one.

one thing ab cod writers is that they WILL put kinky smut in between chapters of characters getting violently decapitated and tortured

isaac lahey you will always be famous

the fact that isaac lahey took the bite to be able to "defend himself" and gained all of these new abilities that in theory should have helped him do exactly that, only to continue to disproportionately oscillate between freeze and flight reactions when put in violent situations, the fact that he gained this facade of confidence at the start of season 2, but that confidence really only existed when he was being ordered around, when he had an authority figure expecting obedience and telling him what to do, and the second he was left to his own devices and forced to deal with uncertainty that facade crumbled, the fact that when he was met with any kind of genuine kindness he always reacted with the sort of awkwardness and surprise of someone who hadn't experienced that in years, the fact that kindness was never the first thing he expected to be given from others, the fact that his most reckless actions were consistently taken on the behalf of the people he cared about, not in defense of himself, the fact that when he did fight for himself, there was hardly ever clear thinking behind it, it was the kind of violence you get only after backing someone into a corner, all of the things that carried over from his human life, from the loss and abuse and fear he lived with, all of these qualities that the bite couldn't magically "fix" despite how hard he leaned into it and tried to adapt to his new life, because the bite was never and will never be the cure-all it's cut out to be (both in universe, at times, and by a hell of a lot of people in the tw fandom) all of this is incredibly important to me.

this genuinely makes my whole week so much better. so a reminder to always interact with posts you like cause at the end of the day, praise is all we’re running on

if there’s one aspect i could criticize about the writing of teen wolf it’s the in depth backstories of each character only to never talk about it again or develop it any further.

liam’s ied and past school? only used as a prop to further the plot and create conflict (angry man go punch!)

isaac’s abuse and claustrophobia? only mentioned/showed how it effects him one time outside flashbacks (motel california)

theo’s growing up and manipulation with the dread doctors? never mentioned, only lightly brushed over in incoherent flashbacks (yes it shows him being guilty for taking tara’s heart, but not the dread doctors effect on him and torture for him to get where he was)

stiles’ nogitsune trauma? only brought up as a joke after the fact (“i once had a demon living in my head LOL”)

derek hale’s past with grooming by kate? only used to show they know each other, not why what she did was wrong or harmful (doesn’t show the harmful nature of grooming and how derek’s trust would be forever altered because of kate’s abuse of his)

malia living like a coyote for the first ?17? years of her life because she “killed” her own family? “omg you can’t take her anywhere! she likes to eat deer🤣🤣”

allison’s mom killing herself cause she’d rather be anything but a werewolf? mentioned maybe a couple times afterwords

it seems as though they attempt to make the characters deep and thought-out but toss aside the trauma they have given them in order to further the new villian of the week and constant conflict. sometimes i wish that the characters made decisions in conjunction with their prior trauma or showed symptoms of how these events effected them because it’s no secret that they would. i understand that it’s a lot to ask for a super precise and detailed description of how every character is feeling, but with 24 episodes a season, tossing in a couple reflective scenes couldn’t have hurt. i fear that their constant need to one-up their villains took away from the personality and characterization of the show as it kept running.

(this is why i love this fandom so much, because yall do! thank you to the writers who write realistic ptsd or lingering effects of major events)

ok i’m done now thank you @thiamsxbitch for inspiring this rant

formally thanking all of the plus-size!reader writers for building my confidence up brick by brick, word by word
