since it’s a scary time to be trans: refuge restrooms is an app which maps gender-neutral/single-stall restrooms. it’s community-mapped, so it’s possible you might be the first person to log the restroom locations, but hopefully it’ll help some people.
please reblog this post if you’ve got trans followers. stay safe.
Just realize that Martyn talked at some point about betraying Ren before the final session of 3rd life.
And now he finally gets his betrayal without Ren there, and it’s to the one person who also asked Martyn to kill him earlier in the series.
Oh we will absolutely be going insane over this for like ever.
going off of Martyn’s lore, I am SO GLAD he won the way he did, it’s such a cool ending and also set up
each player doesn’t remember past lives/seasons when they start but sometimes can recall memories of past life seasons throughout the game, especially if they’re a past winner, this rule doesn’t apply to Grian who remembers everything (watcher sees all lmao).
when Grian started 3rd life he was a player, like Martyn stated, taken from HC as someone who had rejected the watchers. He’s not one of them, he has a corporeal form and he flat out defies and refuses them, though his past experiences with the game have led him to resort to chaos (he knows where everyone goes when they die, which I hc as either back to hermitcraft or empires, so his goal is just to kill as many people as possible anyways). Throughout the series’ he’s gained more and more power along with knowledge, at this point he could probably take a lot of control of the world they’re in but he knows the watchers would object and probably come down to face him.
Speaking of, the watchers hate Grian, they also hate Scott (for defying him in s2). It’s why they’re so adament about Martyn killing him (see also s2)
Scott and Pearl regain some memories of their previous wins, and realize that Grian is a watcher. Pearl’s not exactly a watcher but she is connected to them, she was a player back in Evo so she still has that connection. Scott still believes that if they win they could end the games and take down the watchers once and for all, but they’re hesitant to trust each other and Pearl is angry with him, saying they have no chance and that it’ll just end the way it did last time. They both know about Grian and are wary of his power, but Scott is more concerned about Martyn whom he suspects of having a watcher connection. He knows Martyn is important and doesn’t want him to succumb to their curse.
Eventually everyone just feeds off the watchers bloodthirst as usual, fighting for their lives. Scott fights to the end because he believes that he can face them a second time with Martyn, but in the very end he watches Martyn’s eyes go purple as he is fully possessed by the watchers and kills him.
Martyn doesn’t face the watchers at the end the same way that the other’s did. To escape the world you have to die, but Martyn ran out of time, and fell back into his home-world, the world of the listeners, and ?? I don’t even know what the soul fragment thing meant but it’s something
and to end it all. BigB is also a listener. Nobody knows, not even Martyn, but it’s part of why BigB played into the secret soulmate thing with Grian in s3, to get closer to him. there’s some mystery surrounding him. we don’t even know what he’ll do.

I love making the Life series more dramatic than it really is so let's talk about it.
The thing with Scott and Martyn as a duo that interests me this season has to do with what we as a fanbase have defined as a "curse". The curses given to players by the fanbase are built on pure coincidence. Example: Jimmy always being first out. We have no idea if this will happen this season and it feels unlikely to happen a 4th time. However, for Scott and Martyn's curses, one of them will break their curse and the other will fall victim to it again.
Obviously, I'd like to remind the court that these are just coincidences. This series isn't scripted, everything that happens is unplanned so how on Earth could I predict anything to hold true here?
Let's start with Scott, shall we? If you find yourself as Scott's closest ally you are DOOMED BY THE NARRATIVE!!! So far, Scott out lives all his closest partners.
3rd life, Jimmy died before Scott.
Last life, Pearl died before Scott.
Double life, Cleo died before Scott.
Meaning Martyn is doomed to lose too, right? Not necessarily.
Looking at Martyn's curse, it is basically the same as Scott's. Martyn devotes himself to one person or a whole nation and will always outlive them.
3rd life, Ren died before Martyn and most of Dogwarts also falls with only BigB remaining once Martyn is gone.
Last life, every other Southlander died before Martyn.
Double life, Cleo died before Martyn.
So really, neither of them are at a higher risk than the other. It sort of feels like it... just balances out really. One of them will die before the other. One will break their curse and the other will be doomed for yet another season to watch the ones they care for die.
[Cutting the curtains for a moment, they both have this curse probably because they're both survivors. Scott and Martyn have gotten pretty high placings each season due to their intense and obvious attempts to stay alive. Scott getting 10th, 1st, and then 2nd. Martyn getting 6th, 3rd, and then 3rd again. So I think they're a very good duo this season and I like their chances to atleast place high.]
Crowdfunding is now open for The Sheridan Tapes Season 3.
Let’s Get Started.
www.seedandspark.com/fund/sheridantapes3
The Sheridan Tapes is a paranormal mystery show with lots of suspense, multiple pov, excellent graysexual rep, queer main characters, cool folklore monsters, monsters you've never heard of, flashbacks, mysterious semi governmental agencies, enough answers not to be totally frustrating, enough loose ends to be continually gripping, enough hope both on the emotional side and for the literal central mystery to not be totally depressing, and you should listen to it! And if you like it, you should consider their crowdfunding on seed&spark!
What do you mean the iconic witch hat was born from Glinda's spite and cruelty but became a symbol of her willingness to stand by Elphaba even if it ostracized her from her friends and peers? What do you mean the witch's broom is an item enchanted in a moment of panic and innovation as Elphaba refuses to be cowed and grounded? WHAT DO YOU MEAN the spooky black cloak is a representation of Glinda's selflessness as she wraps it lovingly around Elphaba's shoulders, a threadbare cloak that will maybe, hopefully, keep her best friend (lover) warm? WHAT DO YOU MEAN all these symbols of evil actually represent a deep bond of friendship and love? What do you mean????
