some people are dodging the point so hard. like yes shaunas the "bad guy", shes the one who wants people dead (and maybe lottie too ig) but this story has always been about why its even possible for that to matter. shes literally just one person so why dont they all just refuse to participate? nat does, repeatedly, but no one stands with her so lottie and shauna get what they want. we saw that shauna literally backed down when tai stood up to her, she isnt some unstoppable force.
this is and has always been about passive violence. how being silent in the face of violence, not actively standing up and saying "No" is complicity. tai and van rigging the cards so it will be the "outsider" who gets hunted is complicity. it is commentary on how we allow "fringe" members of our communities to be cast out, othered, hunted, because we're too afraid for ourselves to stand in solidarity with them. but then in the end when the violence comes for you or your friend or your family theres no one left to stand with you because you abandoned those "others" who could have stood with you. shauna and lottie only have the power that the girls give them by being passively complicit in a similar way to how shauna was complicit in tai's plan for allie in the pilot. and so it goes again and again. they all ostracised jackie, watched javi drown, let shauna intimidate and lottie lead them to vote against ben. this show is literally inspired by twin peaks, a story in which an entire town is found to be complict in the murder of a girl they all snubbed every possible opportunity to save. the point is not that shauna is the villian but rather that she is only able to hurt people because the others have created an environment that indulges her worst impulses.

snackie part 2

Half the characters in this photo are dead nowđ
and she was really sapphic about it
Vaggie: there's an army of exorcists coming and only you can tell me how to fight them off
Carmilla: ok here's the deal
Carmilla: you're gonna have to be really sapphic about it
And this is how Vaggie and Husk become besties, their shared suffering
if Vaggie used to have a little backpain from her lost wings and Charlie got in the habit of giving back rubsies before bed only now the wings have returned through the power of gay love and it's past midnight in the hotel with the residents (supposedly) trying to be kinda quiet at the bar so the two can sleep (and not come storming down to threaten everyone with a spear) but then suddenly in the silence there's this singular SHRIEK of laughter, and even more shocking (terrifying?) is it sounded like Vaggie, everyone downstairs freezes as a door slams open and hooves clip clop frantically down the upper halls and then Charlie's leaning over the staircase bannister yelling DID YOU KNOW WINGS ARE VERY SENSITIVE AND KINDA TICKLISH AT THE BASE!??!? ANYWAY EVERYONE HAVE A GOOD NIGHT I KNOW I WILL!!! before racing back to her and Vaggie's room, their door slams shut as everyone stares blankly into the abyss of knowledge except Husk who's pouring them all a drink and Angel Dust who's looking thoughtfully at husk
in the morning husk baps vaggie over the head with a shot glass for dooming them both and then pours her a drink too in commiseration
i wonder whatâs gonna happen to those hikers with shauna âstab your problemsâ shipman in charge
ghost jackie dearest
One thing I saw people like contantly complain about when Vaggie was revealed to be a fallen angel was that it was to predictable.
Which first of all it wasn't people would be essentially virtually fistfighting over this
And second of all to me it signifies good writing why? Because that means that there were building blocks for the theory and in fact we were kinda wrong given one of the main arguments (not the only one but people were using this alot) was her eye and as shown in the show that was from sparring a sinner most exorcists have both eyes. Something I fear is that I feel like this same thing will happen if Alastor does end up on Liliths leash but once again I think thats good writing as it prooves that the evidence is there and that this isnt coming from nowhere with zero proof. It also makes the fandom more alive and I think its better if a fandom is able to get things right as its really gratifying.
anyways I just felt I should mention this cause so many people were pissed and criticizing that when if youâre gonna critizice the show (which is very much allowed and fair there are parts that need working on) do it for something actually important.
cannot believe the amount of Melissa hate Iâm getting on my timeline
have you guys ever considered that maybe I donât want Shauna to get better and I instead want her to be evil with her little evil girlfriend
