Interpretation - Tumblr Posts
To me the song is about two or more kids that are bullied by the cool kids.
They wish they could be like the cool kids. So they can understand why the cool kids are bulling them. When she said 'I wish i could be like the cool kids, cause all the cool kids they seem to get it'.
When he said ' I don't even know why, but he's come'in for you, yeah he's come'in for you'. Made me think the bulling got pyshical.
On top of that they're having problems at home, and the cool kids don't understand that. When she said 'They're all living the good life, can't see what he's going through.
They finally had enough, and started planning a attack to get back at the cool kids, and the school for not doing anything, and to put them through the same hell they were put through. When he said 'I'll tell you his plans'.
They're about to set the plan in action when she said 'They're all talking with a big smile, but they have'nt got a clue' the cool kids don't know what going to happen.
Also;
Actors do not owe you confirmation or representation of your own personal interpretations of and headcanons for their characters. They are not wrong or misinformed for understanding their character differently to the way you do.
ppl need to learn that you can run with a silly idea while also being completely aware that its nowhere near canon. you can just do shit
Big ramble about Fabiniku…
Okay so this LONG ass post is gonna focus on my interpretations of fabiniku aka “life with an ordinary guy who got reincarnated as a fantasy knockout” buckle up I got a lot of thoughts and I’m trying to get it all out in one(ish) post and I don’t think the thoughts all make sense:
I also feel like I’m saying the same thing 5x before I get to the point so apologies in advance….
Tachibana is the reason that Jinguuji has the power that he has. Tachibana loves Jinguuji and currently I am not talking about Love in the romantic sense. You can love family and friends just as deeply as a romantic partner. And this love is why the goddess was drawn to him and this love is why Jinguuji is so dang strong day one. But I also believe we can pinpoint exactly where the turn from platonic to romantic happened and what that means for jinguuji’s strength.
This also plays into my theories on tachibana’s lack of strength.
At the start of the whole story the curse makes both protagonists “see” each other but it’s way easier for Tachibana to get past and ignore it seemingly than Jinguuji. It is theorised by many that that’s because Jinguuji has loved tachibana the whole time pre-isekai and is too repressed to understand any of it. Tachibana being a pretty girl and the two of them being cursed to actually “see” each other just punches him in the face with his OWN feelings. on the other hand Tachibana is just like “okay I’m totally into my friend now and I’ll be keeping that nightmare to myself(ish)”. We don’t see Tachibana struggling a much as Jinguuji does. (Tho they do struggle)
But then the robot fight happens and Jinguuji praised the shit out of his best friend and Tachibana can barely take the embarrassment of it all which causes Jinguuji to fully and genuinely laugh in front of Tachibana for probably the first time EVER. That whole moment put Jinguuji to Tachibana’s heart in a way he previously wasn’t. This is when we see Tachibana get charmed for first time too.
After this In the Manga, when the two encounter the elf on the ship Jinguuji strikes a major hit against her new weapon that mimics what heart beam would look like later in the arc. I believe this is because Tachibana’s feelings for him have grown and he is now capable of even more than before.
Then the single time we have seen the two be emotionally vulnerable with each other (in terms of their feelings for one another) it has resulted in a power boost for Jinguuji and him using heart beam. Tachibana refused to let jinguuji get away with his bullshit and made him call them cute! This moment tho was all spurred on by Tachibana. The blessing was given by Tachibana. Tachibana is the source of it all.
So long story short: Tachibana’s love makes Jinguuji strong.
But then the question is if Tachibana’s platonic love alone was enough to make jinguugi strong why isn’t the reverse true? Jinguuji clearly cares for Tachibana more than anything just because he refuses to call it love doesn’t change that the feelings are there? Well…
Tachibana, being the Hero, is the source of Jinguuji’s power, as the weapon, and I doubt the weapon can affect the hero directly. This is why I don’t think jinguuji’s love for tachibana wether named or not matters in the magic sense of it all.(tho it definitely matters over all)
I think Tachibana’s love is the source of Tachibana’s power and the one thing we truly haven’t seen is Tachibana Loving themselves. They didn’t love themselves before being isekai’d and they don’t now. And being put in a strange body with what look like only hinderances attached to it doesn’t help. The one time we’ve seen strength/skill come from Tachibana was again when they were being emotionally vulnerable and demanding the acknowledgment they felt they deserved.
1. They had a handle on a robot they should have had no idea how to use. Also they were good strategic attacks
2. Over powered Jinguuji for the forehead kissy.
I don’t think Tachibana is going to grow in skill and strength till they’re able to truly accept and love themselves.
And I think that Jinguuji is as much a part of the problem as he is the solution.
Well intentioned or not, Jinguugi does not accept Tachibana as they currently are and hasn’t made it a secret AT ALL. Even if Tachibana was in agreement the whole time after a while the constant reminders that “you are wrong” would get to anyone.
It’s a weird way to put it but I think they have a co-dependent relationship and time a part would strengthen there relationship and by extension Tachibana’s power maybe? Like self love plays into any relationship and I feel like the two of these idiots are growing more unhealthy in the relationship by the day… idk
I think Jinguuji is going to have to at minimum accept his friend where they’re at and commit to taking the journey with them and emotionally support them thru this genuinely tough time. But I also know Jinguuji is an idiot and won’t do this…
I’m cutting my self off if y’all want more ask…
FINAL NOTES: Jinguuji during the robot fight didn’t regain strength unti AFTER he acknowledged he was jealous of Tachibana’s attention and when he agreed to start praising Tachibana. Idk if that mean that Jinguuji’s had to comply with tachibana to keep his strength or if it is more of a reflection that their relationship needs to be strong in order for him to be strong… I feel like I am still close with my above interpretation but also I think I have thought myself into a hole… save me I’m stuck down here…
ANDY SUMMERS - BRING ON THE NIGHT
In the days of his newfound obsession with music, there was also something larger happening inside Andy Summers: the seeds of an awareness were growing in his psyche, the awareness of the power of art. He spent his time between hotel gigs, going to the Continental Theater to see the latest black and white films of Frederico Fellini, Francois Truffaut, Jean-Pierre Melville and the French New Wave cinema. Sitting in the dark, in the flickering projection, the images embedded deeply in Andy Summers, and the power of art took hold.
Fast forward. The rise of The Police. Andy Summers found himself surrounded by photographers, the center of the world’s attention; subject and object of the camera, he became the living element in an evolving story being told.
Summers turned his eye back on that which was watching him. The artist in him took the experience of all that this big life entailed and filtered it into a new creation. He lived it, processed it and returned it into the world through artistic interpretation. (more pictures and info here)
A beautiful representation, and a charming and wistfully accurate interpretation of guileless features. Phinks can be hard to portray, but @takkarulz did great with his expression and presentation. I think he would be cool with cats too. What a neat little view into a world unconsidered, and aptly devoted~ 💚💛💖✨🌠👏👏👏✨✨✨
I don't know why but I headcanon Phinks as cat person lol.
Also probably cats remind him of Pakunoda because she loved kittens and cats in general so when he sees a small cat he gets too emotional thinking in how much Pakunoda would love to pet it.
here’s the thing
i see people talking about misinterpreting things, but instead of misinterpreting, i simply don’t interpret at all
It is not a coincidence that the New Testament was written in Greek instead of Hebrew. Jesus did not say 'I am the Aleph and the Tav,' but rather 'I am the Alpha and the Omega, ... the beginning and the end' of the Greek alphabet. Indisputably, Jesus explicitly identifies himself with the language of the Greeks.

The Biblical "Last Days" Have Not Yet Happened
By Author Eli of Kittim
It is of the utmost importance that we compare scripture with scripture so as to understand the author's intentions rather than projecting our own subjective interpretations into the text. For example, many conservative biblical scholars insist that the term “last days” refers specifically to Jesus’ first coming some two thousand years ago. They often refer to a handful of verses that seem to support this interpretation. One such reference can be found in the book of Hebrews chapter 1 and verses 1-2:
“God, after He spoke long ago to the fathers in the prophets in many portions and in many ways, in these LAST DAYS has spoken to us in His Son.” (Emphasis added).
Here is the assumption: if Jesus’ first coming has come to pass, then the “last days” have already begun during the time of antiquity. But this is a forced interpretation that does not take into consideration the overall context of scripture, much less the rendering of the term in the original language. The actual words in the original Greek text are “ep escaton ton imeron,” where the word “escaton” means “last.” This is the same word from where we get the term “eschatology,” or the study of the final events of human history, also known as the “end times.” Now, imagine for a moment what these same scholars would say if we suddenly announced to them that we are studying eschatology, which we define as the study of antiquity. They would either laugh or think we were mad. Yet, they are quite serious when defending the exact same preposterous postulate! If we turn to the book of Isaiah, we find that the term “last days” refers to the end of the world, not to the time of antiquity. Just as in the book of Daniel—where the angel says to Daniel: “Son of man, understand that the vision pertains to the time of the end” (8:17)—Isaiah is not referring to the time of antiquity, but to the end of time. How can we tell?
Firstly, Isaiah refers to the Messiah’s future reign. Secondly, he mentions the peace that will finally endure on earth under the messianic reign. Thirdly, Isaiah clearly indicates that all wars will end and there will be a Day of Judgment! And all this is mentioned in the context of the “last days.” Isaiah writes,
"This is what Isaiah son of Amoz saw concerning Judah and Jerusalem: In the LAST DAYS the mountain of the LORD's temple will be established as chief among the mountains; it will be raised above the hills, and all nations will stream to it. Many peoples will come and say, 'Come, let us go up to the mountain of the LORD, to the house of the God of Jacob. He will teach us his ways, so that we may walk in his paths.' The law will go out from Zion, the word of the LORD from Jerusalem. He will judge between the nations and will settle disputes for many peoples. They will beat their swords into plowshares and their spears into pruning hooks. Nation will not take up sword against nation, nor will they train for war anymore." (2:1-4, emphasis added).
As you can see, the intended meaning of the term, “last days,” is the end of time. Therefore, according to Hebrews 1:1-2, Jesus speaks to mankind not during the time of antiquity, but in the end of the world! So, it should come as no surprise that this view is reiterated elsewhere in the text:
“Once IN THE END OF THE WORLD hath he appeared to put away sin by the sacrifice of himself" (Hebrews 9:26, KJV emphasis added).

I love reading all the stories here; I’ve been up and down the notes and I have several versions saved to my drafts, one of which I’ve begun writing out my own Fae story on. However, this post has actually had an influence on how I interpret the play I’m currently in, so it seems only appropriate to reblog a version of it on the eve of our play opening as well.
The play is called Almost, Maine, and it’s a subtly surrealist series of small town romances. The blurb on the back of the script describes it as “a midwinter night’s dream”. Basically, weird, seemingly mystical things are happening in the lives of people in this town as they fall in and out of love, and at the end of the night, everyone sees the northern lights. You could read it just abstractly as ‘the northern lights make weird (or should I say wyrd) things happen’, or you could even rationalize most of the things away, but I’ve decided that it makes sense that Almost (that’s the name of the town) just has a very heavy Fae presence and the Fae--likely excited by the northern lights--are meddling in everyone’s affairs--much like in Midsummer Night’s Dream.
I even decided that one of the characters I play, Ginette, actually is a Fae who left the Fae realm because she’s in love with a human, Pete. That explains, for me, how she *SPOILERS* walks all the way around the Earth in about 10 minutes for him--it’s done with the Fae magic she has, but in my interpretation, she has literally travelled all that distance for him. Then, when the northern lights appear at the end, it’s even deeper for me, because I’ve decided that for Ginette that’s a sign that the Fae have finally approved of her romance with Pete.
Pete would be incredibly overwhelmed by all this. He freaks out when she says “I love you” for the first time. It’s best he doesn’t know all this.
Anyways, I know this is a digression from the main subject matter of this post, but I just wanted to share how considering the Fae has been useful to me in deepening my acting and my character backstories. Thanks for all the great stories!
