it's amazing how ordinary objects can become so significant to only the owner

when my aunt's best friend passed away, my younger brother was four years old. at his funeral, my brother went up to her and gave her a nickel. he told her very solemnly that it would make her feel better. she smiled for the first time in days, and tucked it in her wallet.

when my brother was 22, his best friend passed away unexpectedly. my aunt drove three hours to be there for him at the funeral. she went up to my brother, gave him a big hug, and then gave him a nickel. it was the same nickel; she had kept it in her wallet for 18 years, and now it's on a necklace that he never takes off.

what i'm trying to say is that the love you put into the world will always find its way back to you.

Man The Good Place really said that not only is it our connections to other human beings and the love we display towards them that ultimately determines the worth of our lives but ALSO that even the most emotionally damaged, traumatized, uneducated, and mentally ill of us are capable of making those connections if only those connections are made truly available to us through the removal of systemic blockages like poverty and lack of social support systems so basically in the Good Place, where all our needs are met and by virtue of our reality, we cannot be excluded, we truly could all be the best versions of ourselves.

And I think that's beautiful.

tahani

do you guys ever wonder how tahani felt after chidi, eleanor, jason and even MICHEAL left? knowing that they wouldnt ever meet again, that they wouldnt ever make any more memories? knowing that for all eternity, or until she steps through the doorway, she would never see them again, trying to fill up that hold that they left? do u think about her and janet trying to support each other and comfort each other but still feeling empty, because after you spend that much time with someone, you can't ever get over them?

do you ever wonder if she ever learnt how to deal with the loneliness, and made new friends among the demons? if she ever got closure? if eventually, she smiled when she thought of team cockroach?

i hope she did

I love how at the end of the good place that tahani, after spending her life and some of her death seeking the approval adoration and admiration of others, had no partner but felt completely fulfilled on her own

I’ve still not gotten over Kamilah’s art and how Tahani was the only person who would understand it but she wouldn’t look at it

Let’s talk about Shiraishi An can I talk to you about Shiraishi An? I want to talk about Shiraishi An.

I want to talk about An because her character arc is genuinely amazing. It completely subverts how she’s set up in the main story. An is set up as someone who (almost) has it all. She has a great relationship with her family, she’s talented and never had to work for it, her father is a renowned musician so she’s had so many opportunities and connections that people wouldn’t normally have. The only thing she didn’t have was a partner. So the story gives her one, and then slowly starts to chip away at everything else.

We’re introduced to her “aunt and uncle”, who are also renowned musicians, and helped to coach her as a kid. However now her uncle Taiga wants to train her partner. She’s always looked up to RADder, particularly Nagi, she’s always wanted to be trained by them and follow in their footsteps, and Taiga picked her partner. Her partner with far more natural talent, more potential. An who had always been gifted and on an easy path to doing what she loved, got surpassed like it was nothing.

We also learn at this point that her aunt Nagi, whom she loves dearly and is her main inspiration, left the country three years ago and hasn't spoken to her since. An still loves her and looks up to her of course, but it's annoying that she left without saying goodbye.

She gets punched in the gut again when Kohane gets a solo gig. Kohane's talent surpasses hers to the point that Nagi's legacy, the one An was meant to carry, the one An had worked for, is now in the hands of Kohane. Her partner that loves and supports but she can't help but feel jealous. Kohane who has only a few months worth of experience has worked up enough skill to be on the same level as a renowned musician. An worked her whole life to get there, and was beaten to the finish line by someone she had a lifetime's headstart on.

And it turns out that legacy that she lost was all she had left. And now it's gone. Nagi didn't leave the country without saying goodbye. Nagi is just gone. She's dead and she never told An. An never had that chance to talk to her again, never got to say goodbye, never got to introduce her aunt, her childhood idol, to Kohane and her other friends. Her father, her uncle, the entire community, everyone kept it a secret from her. She trusted them and they lied. Even if it's what Nagi wanted, even if it was for her own good, they lied. It's like everything has been taken from her, someone who had it so easy.

To make it even worse, her uncle crushes everyone's dreams out of his own anger and grief. His sister never wanted that, Nagi wanted there to be a new generation who would continue the legacy that RADder left behind. But Taiga won't let them get there because he doesn't want to let Nagi go either. Even if An won't be the next Nagi, there was a chance for her to still uphold everything that she lived for and believed in but all she got was the brutal revelation that her aunt has been gone for years and that her uncle won't let her get close to the light Nagi left behind.

An is a character that is struck with the reality that life isn't easy. A life swimming in the shallow end and getting thrown in the deep end and having to keep fighting and keep swimming back towards that light she once saw. I wonder what waits for her in the light.
