idk man i just find hux and kylo’s speech patterns v interesting

i could, and probably will, write an essay on all of this, but the main point of intrigue is the sentence types they use.

Kylo Ren, an intimidating figure who strikes fear into the hearts of the living both sides of the light, sticks near exclusively to declarative and interrogative sentences. When Kylo does use imperatives -typically expected of someone of his standing- they’re often undermined by the phrases or words he uses immediately beforehand: such as starting the sentence with “and”, making it seem like he’s forcing himself to remember to use them. [Which heavily implies the fact that Kylo is forced into this position of power and fear; it is not, nor ever will be, his natural standing.]

General Hux however, uses imperatives hugely when speaking to everyone aside from Ren, in which he sinks into using pretty much only declaratives to Kylo’s interrogatives. This shows a huge change of character when they converse with each other, that happens with p much no one else. Hux boasts imperatives, making it his default manner of speech, but not with Ren. With Ren he sinks into much more level power, neither having more than the other - despite the fact that Hux could easily up Kylo in speech and Kylo could easily up Hux in strength.  They have a silent understanding in their relationship which is not what you’d expect.

Hux knows Kylo is level with him regarding positions of power in the hierarchy: he appears to resent this, but his speech gives him away.

Hux purposefully, whether consciously or not, changes his default speech pattern when he’s with Kylo to make them level in power. It’s a very obvious change, and leaves Hux vulnerable and small, yet he still does it.

But only with Ren.

Tiktok marvel fans really will be out here like "movie fan SHOCKED because i'd rather watch superhero movie #54 in blue and not a sensual 1987 french horror film about a man discovering his wife may not exist set in what is gradually revealed to be a space station" as if you're supposed to agree that superhero movie #54 is the clear winner in this comparison

Love the idea of a story about a complex issue that's told from the perspective of something that cannot comprehend or care about the issue. The way the story would be sliced up and moments that a human would consider pointless would be focused on because the pigeon happened to be there would be hype as fuck

Ok FINE I made the movie poster of it

Mališa, otherwise known as Little One, is a pet pigeon owned by a conservative butler of the Austro-Hungarian aristocracy. She is loved, and she is pampered— until her owner is murdered in cold blood, and she is left to fend for herself in Sarajevo.

In the wilds of the city, she feeds from the poor, working nationalist radicals, and the vieux riches alike.

To Mališa, there are no ethical concerns. No politics. No burgeoning nationalism.

There are only hands that feed her, and hands that do not.

This is compelling. Consider me fucking compelled.

Final shot is the bird hearing, but not seeing, the sound of a .32 ACP pistol, and flying away in shock

One time my rabbi told us, “imagine you had a box with a little bit of god in it. What would you do with the box?”

So we were like ?? “We’d protect it and keep it nice and clean and polished” and he was like “your body’s that box. Stop eating markers”

Every time I come across this post the last sentence smacks me in the face

oh this post’s back
