the courtney-lindsay rivalry in action was the funniest dynamic that season because every interaction would be courtney saying that lindsay was undermining her authority and lindsay going “the only thing i mine are diamonds in minecraft uwu” and then accusing her of murder
Highway backgrounds were provided by @xgatheringdust, who is as wildly talented as she is generous.
Poem written in plain text beneath the cut:
I don’t have the poem you wrote anymore that you gave me in two thousand ten I think that I burned it outside my house It makes more sense to me now than then.
A few days after I turned you away you approached me looking anguished. And I thought that you’d come to scream at me, but you gave me the poem and vanished.
Inside it you brought up some technical terms, just to rub it in more that you’re smart. You wrote of solutions and mixtures, and how only some can be taken apart.
You likened us to colored sand poured together in a jar. And you likened me to a hammer that smashed the thing to shards.
A frantic girl, panicked, crouched, she separates the grains. She tries to keep the colors pure, but the mixture still remains.
She hates to feel contaminated. She spends weeks and months extracting. Her opponent is relentless; cruel. Her sight is honed, exacting.
But even when she’s older, and she’s forgotten, and she’s free, sometimes she’ll squint at her reflection and she’ll see a glint of me.
Apparently, this is from “The Upside of Hunger”, an episode where Owen goes into an alternate universe where everyone he knows acts the opposite of how they act in Owen’s universe. This is the Courtney from that universe. She helps out Owen and goes with him to his universe.
Last picture is AU Duncan and Owen, moments before AU Courtney ruins Duncan’s violin with juice.
