How I think how Silco’s knife clattering to the ground when first meeting powder/jinx represents and foreshadows their relationship

Thinking abt how when Silco first approaches powder he hides his knife behind his back, possibly intending to finish the job after getting the info he needs. AKA Vander’s knife, the same knife that Silco swiped and used to escape from Vander during his drowning. Which he kept all those years, and ended up ultimately killing Vander with just moments prior, a shot cuts to Vander’s blood still fresh and dripping from the blade. A knife he has used to defend himself from both danger and death, to protect himself from harm by someone he loved.

But when powder goes and hugs Silco, that knife clatters to the ground, out of his grasps. Silco’s protection, the one thing that had helped Silco escape death, the one thing he uses to defend himself. When his hand first rises, Silco’s goons make a face, most likely expecting to hurt/push away powder. But this time there is no violence, instead there are welcoming arms.

In that moment, the knife dropping to the ground not only shows powder breaking down Silco’s emotional walls that he had built up to protect himself. But also to show that when he hugs her back, Silco is quite literally and unknowingly accepting death with open arms.

In the show we see that even when Jinx is hostile towards him and purposely hurting Silco, he’s relatively calm, and doesn’t return the hostility. Or when she makes mistakes, Silco is forgiving. In their relationship, Silco “has no knife”, aka he has no defense when it comes to Jinx. Because, she is his undoing, Jinx is Silco’s weakness, and it was shown from the very start.

When powder first pulls a jinx, killing her family and vander in the process, Silco welcomes her with open arms. And in the last episode when she pulls another jinx, killing Silco, Silco only has love and reassurance to give. No knife to protect himself this time, again finding himself at death’s door because of someone he loves. But this time there’s no bitterness or hate. Only forgiveness, understanding and love, the things Vander failed to show him when Silco pulled his own jinx and ended up being the cause of Felicia’s death.

But yeah. Idk if any of this made sense. But. Is there anything so undoing…as a daughter? SOBS

Just discovered there was an illustrated edition of System Collapse by Jaime Jones with its own special cover and I am in love and desperately need to know if Jaime Jones illustrated other interior illustrations for the other books

I made this today and can confirm it is the real deal. If you are poor and/or eat instant ramen all the time like me, you should give it a try.

Here’s some guy’s blog post where he makes it.

Sometimes non-binary people in real life look like men. Did you guys know that? did you guys know many people don't have the resources to alter their facial structure to fit into your (eurocentric, by the way) ideal of "androgynous"? did you know some non-binary people have physical traits that are commonly associated with their sex that was assigned at birth. Sometimes they don't have the energy to shave or the money to get electrolysis or the desire to get top surgery or the genes for hormone therapy to make a big difference in their appearances Did you know that when you complain about a non-binary character in fiction looking "like a man" you harm actual non-binary people and let them know you're not safe to be around unless they do a lot of surgery, makeup and hormonal treatments to be what you want them to be. Did you fucking know!!!!

Also, if y'all are looking for a sweet treat of a vamp au tonight, I got recommended THIS fic and 💋💋💋 The author is COOKING. Its only 2 chapters so far and I am HOOKED. Its Techno-centric. We got Ranboo and Tommy. We got some IMMEDIATELY rotten OC side characters that make you want to merc them. Cool world building in a urban fantasy society. And it seems like almosy NO one has seen it. Bruh. Y'all are missing out.

You can read the description for more details, but if you like Technoblade-centric fic, this is shaping up to be a BANGER.
