Nicky was always meant to be stillborn. He was never supposed to live after birth, but Rio gave Agatha more time with him, and in turn he got more time with Agatha.
Whether it was implied or not, he was always the son of Death. He was always supposed to go home to his other mother. When Death finally beckoned him home that night, Rio wouldn’t allow him to join her until he kissed Agatha’s cheek. And he knew, instantaneously, to kiss Agatha not once, but twice.
Once from him, and once from Rio.
Though he was always meant to join Death at her side, Rio gave Agatha the chance to be his mother, too, and now I am a mess about it and will be thinking about this for a long time.
11/4 edit: Wow, y'all have completely overwhelmed me with your love for this little meta, so as thanks, I turned it into a bit of fic we can all cry together about. Read "Once (Twice) from Nicky" on AO3.
timkon stans stop tagging(!!) and whining about bernard challenge impossible
updated my bernard design 🤞
i think lonnie and bernard were on the same conspiracy theory forums online
when timbern is out on a date, tim's brain turns off, and he knows no directions. he makes no decisions. bernard is driving. where? tim doesn't know and doesn't care. it's his self-care moment. (his brain only turns back on when babs tells him something might go down)
bernard doesn't smoke, but when he's having a stressful day at the restaurant, he will take a smoke brake
tim used to do bernard's chemistry homework for him, and bernard would do tim's physics homework for him.
bernard will call tim "mr. wayne" to piss him off
they start playing fight and end up making out for hours
tim's fridge is full of polaroids, mostly of bernard and calico, but one of them is very old and all fucked up. It's a picture of tim bernard and darla at louis grieves.
bernard took a picture of that polaroid and uses it as his phone lockscreen
forced to say “it’s ok” instead of throwing a chair at them
more eddie textposts bc i'm addicted to making them
I've seen so much shit about TDP season 7 being bad and like. What??? It's actually so good. Maybe it's just bc I'm more of a casual enjoyer (still obsessed) but like I thought it was really good. It all made so much sense to me, and I felt like everyone was still in character. Like even Harrow being in the bird made sense, I thought it was a bit silly but like, isn't that the point of the show. It's still a show made for kids (even though it gets very dark) it's gonna be a little silly. And honestly I loved that it was, it aligns so much with Leola's Last Wish. (Paraphrased) All children should know they are loved even in the dark. And to me that's part of what love is, smiles and silliness even (and especially) through the dark times. And after all why shouldn't Harrow be alive? Haven't Ez and Callum deserved enough pain already? And like the dragons killing Aaravos so Ez didn't have to, and/or Callum didn't have to use dark magic makes sense. The dragons have been helping/sacrificing stuff for them this whole time. Why not kill Aaravos too. Yes Aaravos will be back in 7 years, but that's 7 years they can use to learn and grow and find a better solution. I might make a more detailed post about this later. It just makes me so sad (? Idk how to describe what I'm feeling) to know that people were disappointed with it/think it's bad. I know it's bc it's just that important to them but I wish they could enjoy the wonderful masterpiece that is the entire show and each individual season and episode in turn.
America moment
I love The Golden Girls.
Just finished the "Dreamer's Nightmare" graphic novel in preparation for season 7 and oooohhhh....I'm looking forward to this thematic reversal with our fav royal bros!!
Cuz King Ezran is definitely not gonna be "feeling like himself".
(Also, how many times now has Callum been frightened to tears over Ezran's mortality?? He's kind of a magnet for these things lol)
