Paul 23 - Tumblr Posts
PAULKINS! :) or Mrs Matthews and Mr Perkins
so like about Paul23 and emdroid marriage I always thought who proposed first? BOTH SAME TIME
it’s just like
“Emma there’s something I have to t-“ Paul is about to pull a box out of his pocket. When he turns around he see’s Emma already on one knee. “We got the same ring didn’t we?” Emma chuckles. “Yep. Yeah we did” Paul opens the box and shows Emma the ring being the exact same ring. “Well wanna like watch a movie now?” Emma gets off of her knee and they switch boxes. Paul nods.
This definitely is out of character but I thought this was funny

Paul 23 is such an icon I love him sm
I’m thinking about all the reasons that led to Paul 23 killing the real Emma, and how he varies from the original Paul.
Paul 23 did it because he had more in common with the android than he ever could with the real Emma. Because that’s the one he married, the one that loves him. But… It’s no coincidence that right before he made his choice, real Emma told him she abandoned her boyfriend in Guatemala. She left him because he wanted to get married. Paul will never be able to trust that she’ll love him, that she’ll want the same things as him. He’d never have a sure future with her. He was willing to kill her and take the life he’s guaranteed to have with a murderous android over the hypothetical life with the Emma that had a right to live.
Paul needs certainty and predictability, he just needs the life he planned for. No matter what it takes.
I agree that Paul 23 is more inclined to murder than the original Paul, but his motives are the same. All the reasoning behind his choices make perfect sense within the context of the Paul we know, even if his actions are much more extreme.
Paul is selfish, this is established very quickly in TGWDLM. He chooses things that benefit him over helping other people, that’s the point of his arc. When he chose to go with Bill to help Alice, it’s surprising, because he wasn’t even willing to go see Mamma Mia with Bill to help build his relationship with his daughter. He wasn’t willing to give to the homeless, or join company softball, or go back to get his best friend, who’s having a shitty day, some coffee. He doesn’t go out of his way to help people just because it’s the right thing. Yes, he’s also kind, he’s a good person, he cares about people, but he does also prioritize himself for most of the story. That’s why it’s so huge that he sacrifices his life to destroy the meteor. He grew as a character.
Paul 23 didn’t go through that arc. He didn’t need to save the world. He started his story by killing someone who had a right to live, just so he could have the life he wants. He’s forever going to be the selfish, self-serving office worker from the start of TGWDLM, just… More willing to kill to get what he wants.
The point I’m trying to make is that TGWDLM Paul would have chosen the droid too, I don’t think it’s just because he’s a clone and he saw himself in her. Canonically, all he’s ever really wanted was Emma. He would not give that up in favour of making the ethical choice.
petition to just, be nice to paul
chat is this a dick joke
ok wait but the "divorce selfie" with Paul 23 as the lawyer, Emdroid taking the photo, and Paul dead in the backgrond
if I had motivation I would draw that
I want to draw the "divorce selfie" meme with attorney in a hurry (Barry swift and Gary Goldstein) but the problem is that Garry would be the one taking the selfie and the lawyer behind the desk.
Rewatching Nightmare Time and listing things that aren't appreciated enough (2)
Forever and Always
The fact that at least this version of Hidgens can legal officiate weddings.
Sylvia, seriously, we need to talk about this character more.
The shitty fan metaphor.
Paul refuses to live a life without cheese.
"It's the cheapest place in town without bed bugs, it wasn't rocket science, Ema."
"She doesn't love you!" "WHO KNOWS I JUST MET HIM, HE SEEMS ALRIGHT!"
Corey, on mute, dabbing his eye with a hankie at the ending like he did at the beginning.
Time Bastard
Hidgens is in some way utensiphilic and has somehow had relations with Siri, also, this was enough to make TED uncomfortable.
Jeff being the best Tinky (fight me)
The fact that the future CCRP never considered the fact that people would want to screw a perfectly obedient artificial humanoid that could look like anyone (This might actually be the most unrealistic Hatchetfield thing ever)
Joey's overall extra hammy performance this episode.
Nick's unique ending narration that almost gives the vibe that Tinky is the one telling the story.
