Every time I see fem versions of my favourite male characters or mlm ships, I go crazy. Women.
"I asked ChatGPT--"
Yeah well, I asked the wasps nest in my attic. It sang its answer so beautifully to me, but I am so very afraid of it. Perhaps it will soothe my itching soul...
I've decided I should be allowed to platonically kiss my friends, however☝️I don't know how they feel about this, so for now I must withhold my impulsive behaviour
Some thoughts on jane prentiss I had this morning that I just connected the dots with
1. Her "worms" aren't worms, they're wasp larvae
2. Some varieties of wasp feed spiders to their young
3. Jonathan Sims was first marked by the Web
I know it was likely Jonah's meddling that put her on Jon's trail, but I like to believe the drive to get to him was more from her nature as a mother trying to feed her young
Beetlejuice truly loves Lydia.
The why of it all is a different kettle of fish altogether and, in all honesty, it doesn’t really matter. He loves her and she can genuinely do no wrong by his books.
Delores is shown as one of the “loves of my [Betelgeuse’s] life” during MacArthur’s Park, alongside Lydia (and a dog - which is coincidentally Burton’s, thrown in as a last-minute gag). Despite what she did to him, Betelgeuse legitimately and canonically acknowledges her as someone he loved.
But she killed him.
Yes and he killed her too. She’s out for revenge and he…kinda isn’t too fussed about her having killed him. He’s too fixated on Lydia to care all that much, and her threat mostly reads as a major inconvenience to him that she might come between himself and Lydia. Even if he was successful in marrying Lydia and came back to life, Delores could just suck his soul anyway.
Delores did Betelgeuse wrong and he has no feelings left there for her, despite calling her one of the loves of his (After)life.
Lydia, on the other hand, has handed Betelgeuse’s ass to him twice.
Not once but twice has she managed to escape a marriage - the second one involving a contract (which, if you ask me, absolutely did not depend on rule 699. That was bullshit and I will not be persuaded otherwise). But Betelgeuse barely tried to stop her when she sent him back. He hissed at her.
Huh?
We know he’s more powerful than that.
Infinitely.
At the end, when he reappears beside her in bed, (leaving that saucy little imprint), we as the audience know he’s still haunting her. He will not. Let. Her. Go. That man is committed as fuck, even after Lydia has bested him over and over again.
Why?
He loves her.
I would happily wager my life on the idea that, while Lydia was saying his name three times at the end of the movie, Betelgeuse let her. As another user Tumblr brilliantly pointed out, MacArthur’s Park is a farewell song. He knew he was against the clock, fate and some inexplicable loophole. That said, no one knows Afterlife rules quite like Betelgeuse. I refuse to believe he didn’t know bringing Lydia into the Afterlife would cost him their contract (and yes, I’m clearly still bitter). Either that, or he was a lovesick fool who was too excited to turn her down.
I digress.
MacArthur’s Park is a farewell song. Betelgeuse played that wedding out in excruciating detail to give Lydia some kind of amusement. He clearly knows what’s happened in her life and he wants to give her something special. He did the whole shebang, made it magical, (we all know how excited Lydia is to float at the end of the first movie) and something to remember. But his love for her is so deep he wouldn’t want her marrying him without actually genuinely wanting to.
Betelgeuse let the love of his life destroy him rather than risk destroying the trust they had built.
You saw Lydia’s face when she looked at what was left of him on the floor. She’s feeling guilty as hell. He’s haunting her because she lets him. She. Can’t. Let. Him. Go.
They’re utterly alone, together.

I did have to search up the definitions for the words at the top, but just because the words cane to me doesn't mean the meanings did as well.
Friend asked me for words today, with no explanation, and I just started spouting this for about ten minutes.
I have not seen enough people talking about the fact that Stiles got a completely different body after the nogitsune. They will talk about or mention the nightmares, but they won't talk about the body thing. Like, yeah, the possession is over, but it's not really him, is it? This isn't the body he was born with. This isn't his REAL body. It's a magic fake, and it won't ever truly be him. There will be side effects of this, said side effects will fall on a spectrum and go up and down depending on how he handles it and how bad it is, it will fluctuate. Stiles probably won't ever feel right in that body. It won't fit the same way. It will be a constant presence of what happened, and there won't be anything he could do.
Vent :)
Crying because I realised even though I had next to nothing I was taken away from the most loving household I have ever been in. I suffered but I was loved unconditionally.
There are two reasons I watch power rangers super ninja steel.
