Randomness

>looks inside

good, that was the point.

i used to be so sad and so miserable and so scared. Now i get to be a pretty girl in public and other girls see me and smile and we compliment each other and it's normal and im happy.

Interviewer: So, let's talk about your family.

Venom: Mmm, he looks tasty. Maybe just a nibble...

Mira, out loud: No.

Mira: I— I mean—

Also, I think it would be really nice if Celine does the thing Miles does with his dad in the Spiderverse films where she puts on a deeper voice around everyone she knows (HUNTR/X knows it’s her, Bobby has inkings). I also fully believe she gives them life lessons that she couldn't otherwise due to the anonymity of the mask

Reasonable side: Celine does a voice that is Not Hers but still distinctly sustainable in the mask at all times, and thinks she’s totally winning secret identity by pitching everything down half an octave (only Zoey was fooled, and only for like fifteen seconds)

Spirit of joy and whimsy: Celine does her silliest possible voice at all times—after all, many people don’t even think she’s a human! Rumi immediately clocks that on account of it historically being used for her bedtime stories

LMFAO???????? 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

He just? Acts so nice and nonthreatening?? And yet Huntrix don’t treat him as pathetic but as worthy of respect and trust???

teen!Celine: WHAT IS YOUR ANGLE?!

Bobby: ? What angle? I'm too hug-shaped (Zoey's words, which are forever stuck in his head) to have angles?

Gay people are INCREDIBLY ANNOYING for production when they are on reality shows cause they always do shit like this. Reality shows pick their cast specifically for people who will create drama, so it tracks that bringing in some gay people (in the era that I worked, 2013-2018, this was considered to be new and interesting) would diversify people enough to create some conflict. To a degree, this was true.

But what actually happened was that the gay person, or worse, people, would end up estranged from the other people because Straight People Who Are Fucking Nuts in a way that would be ideal for a reality show are very different from Gay People Who Are Fucking Nuts.

There's one particular instance I remember in which our Gay Person tm wasn't getting into drama and no one could figure out why. Any time anything happened it would just defuse almost instantly. Eventually we prodded during a solo interview and one of the guys said something along the lines of "Mayn gay marriage just got legalized n shit if I yell at this guy I'm being a homophobe". This meant that our gay was COASTING along in this reality show cause no one would vote him out!!

But you know what the PINNACLE of this was?

DATING SHOWS.

One... Very popular dating show I worked on (you know the one) has an unofficial, unwritten rule: you can only have 1 queer woman in the cast of ladies. This is because for a solid few years, if ever there were two bisexual women in the show, they would ALWAYS abandon the man and run off together instead. You can't have contestants saying shit like "this guy has no personality and sucks ass. I prefer this girl I met who actually listens to me". Like this was an actual epidemic in the casting. It happened over and over for YEARS and they couldn't find a way to stop it without literally separating the women from each other, which obviously wouldn't be good for the show. They also couldn't show this was happening because that. Uh. Would be pretty bad to reveal to audiences.

Eventually they just decided to subtly prod and see if women who were going on the show were gay and then avoid having two on the same season at the same time. To my knowledge they still do it this way.
