hdm concept artists really said “let’s take the saddest scene in the amber spyglass and add a bench to really drive home the symbols of separation”
that bit from Lilo & Stitch but it’s Will and Balthamos :-)
request: “ Since you’re asking for requests, if that’s something you feel like doing, I’d love to see a gifset of Lee’s death on “Life doesn’t discriminate, it takes and it takes and it takes” or something similar (yes, angsty as hell ask, I’m an angst gremlin). “

Desire is not sin.
Love takes on a million forms, each of them beautiful, each of them worthy.
You who judge, you're just afraid.

Every year. No matter where I am. I promise.
Until we meet again.
"We can come back here every year. You in your world and me in mine. Midsummer's Day. Midday." "And I'll be there. I'll be there every year. My whole life." "And if we do meet someone we like, we must be kind to them. We won't compare them. When we come here, just for an hour, we can be together." "Every year. I promise."

his dark materials will literally always work bc every small child wants an animal companion that loves you most and goes on adventures with you and every adult wants an animal companion that can shoulder some of life’s immense psychologically damage for you. and you can pet it
And to tear down the feeble corpse of God! Every kid and adult wants that also!
Our lives are entwined. It hurts when we’re apart.

A good video I captured.
the subtle knife: favourite book to screen moments
I have a headcanon that Pan and Kirjava actually settled earlier than most other kids’ dæmons because of everything Lyra and Will went through forcing them to reach emotional maturity faster. Because, in La Belle Sauvage Alice is an older teenager (16? Not sure what the working age is in her universe) and she and Ben are still unsettled.
Showed up to GBBO SU2C hoping to hear James McAvoy talk about daemons and His Dark Materials, and was rewarded with a Lord Asriel Super Fan McAvoy baking a cake in the shape of a snow leopard in honour of Stelmaria and naming it after his son Brendan. 😭😭😭
I have seen the shot of the bench and I may never recover.
They are going to mirror it in some way next season and I will absolutely lose it.
Jack Thorne just came into my house and said, “Fuck the rest of your day and your responsibilities, you’re going to dwell on the idea that even the people you love and want in your life will be forced to leave because of some higher laws of the universe, but that just because you can’t and don’t see them doesn’t mean they can’t exist in the same space at the same time as you, just on the ‘other side’; and that sometimes their just having been in your life is more than enough because they suffuse the very essence of who you are, so that even when you are separated you really are not because they live in your memories and heart and every atom of you.”
HIS DARK MATERIALS S02E02 | THE CAVE ↳ I like it here. Me too.
HIS DARK MATERIALS “The Cave”
this… is a curse. a web of my design in which you are both the spider and the fly. i have had to bite my lip while all of you parade around, concocting your fearful little schemes, daring to judge me. and all the while, there’s a myriad of universes out there that you could only hope to fathom.
