Hey, reading your tags on the Corrie preview vid and yeah tough week, but does this mean you won’t be gifing the 4 amazing kana scenes there were at any point? The kana one on one scenes were somehow outstanding and deserving of praise in an otherwise landfill of rubbish sort of week for Corrie.

I’m not sure yet. They were great in themselves, I did gif a bit of Monday’s scene that we got in the preview, but when placed within the larger storyline that I’m unhappy with, they lose some of their power. 

I have always said, though, that for soaps you have to take the broader strokes. So I might.

Hi. Did you check out the recent GH epsiode? We got a bit more Kristina and Valerie. I wonder if we will finally get a storyline with them delving into this

I did! It’s actually kind of an interesting situation. 

On the one hand, GH (and other soaps) can be so impressive with their continuity and memory of past events, and it showed in how Kristina and Val were able to bring up all this history. And within the episode itself, I thought the things the topics they covered and the context in which they were all brought were really well done. Val’s history with Dante, the situation with Chase, how she focused on her mom to the exclusion of all else, that friendship with a girl that became “weird”, that’s all good stuff.

But, was it seriously their first scene since the detective’s exam? I wish they’d shared more. Basically two real scenes since like last year? They HAD to cover so much because they packed in a months of slow burn into one ep. 

For a bit, I thought maybe the kiss and rejection was going to be to push Kristina to Daisy, but I think we saw enough of Val, especially the post-kiss lip touch moment where clearly this isn’t as one-sided as it seems. I assume Val’ll help save Kristina from the cult as things progress?

Am I the only one who finds it *curious* when an anon goes into a creator’s inbox to complain about a ship that the creator clearly enjoys making content for and lists off all the reasons they hate said ship/content and why it’s so ~TOXIC? No? Just me? You’re classy, Boo, and thanks for the art of the day!

Haha, I would say you are also not alone in that, anon. Thanks for your kind words. 🙂 And the art of the day appreciation! I knew I wasn’t just posting in the wind.

Am I the only one who can’t stand Kana? Idc about the latest baby nonsense; I’ve hated their relationship from jump. WhAm I the only one wen Kate isn’t doing well all she thinks about is herself. When she IS doing well all she thinks about is herself. When she “tries” to support Rana all she thinks about is herself. I hate that the relationship is celebrated as somehow aspirational when it’s actually toxic. (How Corrie writes & frames POC characters & storylines is a whole other conversation.)

Well, anon, I would very much say you are not the only one. You are, of course, free to think what you want but I disagree with your take on Kate and the relationship.

terrifying to see people i follow here get flagged as nsfw. do you have another platform you could move to just in case? you’re one of my fave bloggers tbh

Aw, thank you! That’s so nice of you to say. 

I did sign up for a dreamwidth account, same name, but I’ll probably only use it for updates. I also remembered that I do actually have a pillowfort.io account, again, same name, never used it before but if that comes up anytime soon. I’ll probably start crossposting, whatever happens with Tumblr. But I might just start a new Tumblr, I don’t know. If I do, I’ll mention it on one of the other accounts.

Edit: Oh, I hadn’t realized pillowfort.io was up. But gif limit 2MB? Maybe no crossposting, lol.
