Y'ALL THIS IS SO FUN WTF I LOVE TUMBLR
i'mma be 100% honest i came back to tumblr just 'cause of @itsapmseymour and i think that says smth about me
🦉 dismantle systems of oppression 🦉
i haven't been on here in so long what've i missed
There are two upcoming Blackwater events if you would like to see ren and I discuss our graphic novel!
UW Bookstore Event: Print: A Bookstore Event:
don’t forget that vegas and pete know each other. and have for years. not well, but they are certainly not strangers. they’ve literally tortured and murdered people together. not that long ago! we saw it! in vivid bloody detail on screen!
i just think maybe that’s important to remember when examining their interactions. terrorizing people is a large part of pete’s job description! not just watching dramas with tankhun and being adorable and very bad at spying. along with all that there is also that time he was ruthlessly stomping that one guy to pulp without so much as a flicker of hesitation and when porsche asked him about it he shrugged and said, “yeah i used to think people were good or bad too. i don’t anymore.”
they aren’t starting from a baseline of naive captive-experienced tormentor. they’re starting from the baseline of both having been the experienced tormentor many times before. so of course there’s understanding!
what’s unusual (to us, and to vegas) is that pete is kind about it when he doesn’t have to be and has no reason to be. because menace, violence, torture, confinement, humiliation, those are all normal in their world. (are we ready to talk about how porsche’s punishment crawling around the gym for hours was also torture…? no? well.) that’s all in a day’s work. but kindness is not.
so anyway pete has apparently become my favorite character and i’m here to personally defend all of his dark shadows and sharp edges
whoever the first people to have sex were must've been on smth 'cause wtf
