So I Was Listening To Emergence For The Upteenth Time Now, And I'm Trying To Figure Out What Everything

Kevin saying Jean and him aren’t friends and then immediately sending Jean a postcard and Jean saying ‘I hate him’ and then immediately hanging it up above his desk.

Swiss: *walks into the ghoul common room* Sup, heteros? Dewdrop: *stops making out with Aether* The fuck did you just call me?!

I, for one, like Roman numerals.

mountain will actually just carry aurora and phantom around and whenever they enter a new room mountain will announce to whoever’s there “i come bearing gifts!” and plop aurora or phantom down. it never fails to make the two giggle

ugh (with want)

As soon as the brick hit him in the head he picked it up and started whacking people with it. You can’t call that innocent.

"neil is innocent and doesn't know when andrew is flirting with him-"

WRONG ❌

once neil figured out how to play along he was a fucking menace do you not remember this????

Sometimes, when listening to Sleep Token, I realize "I'm listening to a real human singing.." and I have to stop for a second because he sounds so divine, in a way.

How long does it take someone isolated from other people to go insane? Asking for myself.

hey friendly reminder that exy is just a coping mechanism for kevin. the same way neil goes on runs so he doesn’t ACTUALLY run away. the same way jean distracts himself with a million different hobbies so he doesn’t have to think about his past.

i’m sick of seeing people talk about “the only thing kevin loved is exy”…untrue. he plays constantly because it’s the only thing he knows HOW to do. playing well was the reason he survived the nest, and it’s the only thing he had left when he finally ran away. he’s strict with neil’s training because for him, it was be great or don’t play at all. the same thing as helping your partner play well so you both succeed. for him, teaching exy is something intimate, almost.

so does he love it? sure, maybe. his mom created it after all. but you can’t look at his relationship with andrew—someone he trusted to keep him safe even though the people he trusted before only ended up hurting him. with neil—who he taught to play well so they could succeed together, even though he knew neil couldn’t stay. with wymack—who’s team he joined and made great so everyone would start giving wymack the appreciation he deserves instead of saying his team is a publicity stunt. with abby—the first (parental?) figure to treat him kindly since his mother died. you can’t look at his relationship with all of them and try to convince me he doesn’t care. not when he stayed and built all of those bonds.
