the last few chapters of Vale amuse me

“…I start running out
of my winter stash. Never out of golden doorknobs though. I might start calling
myself the Knob Robber. The Knob Nicker. The Knib-Knob.”
I’m not projecting too much on Vale but when she says shit like “If I
don’t have time to think about it then I’m not feeling it.” I just vibe with that so much.
when you miss a “you”
“I’ve got good news or bad news for you, depending on how many friends you’ve made along the way.” is a literal thing Vale just said to the villain of the story.
“Cephas chuckles as they both pretend they just made each other feel better.”
ouch.
UMM remember when Cephas called Vale’s name just to hear her voice aND tHEn TheRe’s a sceNe whEre EamOn calls CeLia’s NamE jusT so He Can HEEaR Her VOicE I’M BGOin g TI hfsdjlfsdk
You know everyone’s tired of love triangles but I still just feel Morlene/Lourdes/Vale so much. If I’m doing this thing right nobody should have a doubt that Morlene and Lourdes’ relationship is unshakable. Morlene never once implies that she wants to get back with Vale, or that she loved/loves her more, or that she’s settling for Lourdes, and Lourdes never once feels or sounds like she’s afraid Vale will “steal” Morlene from her. And even though Vale jokes a lot at Lourdes’ expense and always sounds like a lovestruck idiot around Morlene, she never flirts with Morlene, she keeps all of her thoughts about her being in love with her all the occasional lustful thoughts in her head, out of respect for Morlene, and yes, Lourdes as well. I really respect that about her despite 1) her being a little shit and 2) me having created her. And what Morlene says to Vale when [spoilers] because [spoilers] just wraps all of that up so neatly it’s actually heartbreaking.
Green Text Story no. 211: “Grandma Assassin”
Cephas: I made this friendship bracelet for you.
Vale: You know I’m not really a jewelry person.
Cephas: You don’t have to wear it.
Vale: No, I’m gonna wear it forever. Back off.
