He makes no comment on her weight, or her size, and he is not actually commenting on her appetite in a negative way, he is just acknowledging that it's a lot more work for him now that she eats more. He is noting that Alina's appetite has increased since he last saw her, and he makes a joke (ya know, how you do with friends) about how it would be easier to keep her fed if she still had her more meager appetite from before.
They are running for their lives in the forest, and Mal has to hunt and gather to feed them. 297).įat Shames Alina - False! This one is particularly laughable to me, because its one of the Darklina arguments that falls apart the second you actually read the scene. He also then apologizes, completely unprompted, for what he said. I'd be pissed as hell too.) Important Note: He even acknowledges that what he said was wrong and tries to apologise, before Alina tells him that he was right. (and, even if he WAS angry because he perceived them to be romantically involved, boy just spent months fighting for his life, lost multiple friends, and almost died to find her, all while coming to the realisation that he was in love with her, and then he shows up, after not hearing from her for months. Mal is noting that after months of searching for her, believing she was being hurt, tortured, or worse, when he arrives to save her, she looks like the Darkling's pet. He has dressed her up in his colors, made her put on a show for his benefit, and has created a situation where Alina appears to be his. First, he has no idea what their relationship is like at that point, but more importantly, he is making an observation of her status in the little palace and how she has become his tool. Slut Shames Alina - FALSE! The ever favourite callout line from Darklina's "He's all over you" isn't him slut shaming her. It's fucking not, and it's transparent as hell that y'all romanticize and sexualize the actually possessive character, and then project false character traits onto Mal. The point my post was making is that Darklina's love to call Mal possessive, but then turn around and act like Darkles literally enslaving her in somehow sexy and romantic. So, don't assume everyone gets that "hes supposed to be awful". I think he's a very interesting villain, and a lot of the terrible shit he does that I have to keep making posts about make him a good villain, the problem is when the terrible shit the "Bad Guy" does is romanticized and viewed as the reasons why Alina SHOULD have picked him. Him being the Bad Guy is fine, and if you like him AS A VILLAIN, and acknowledge all the bad shit he does, then my posts aren't for you. First, your comment about "its less about how awful the bad guy is, since he's supposed to be", takes every comment I've made about Darkles out of context, which seems fitting since everything Darklina's spout about Mal is out of context. I am adding to it on a daily basis and have been focusing on podcasts that catch my interest.Okay well. The site is currently a work in progress in that the directory is not even close to complete. I hope that you find the tool to be useful and would be interested in hearing what the community here thinks of it. I see the site as a win-win(-win) for all involved you, the podcast, and the sponsor. The idea here is to make supporting your favorite podcast as easy as possible, while also making finding promo codes from sponsors/services/retailers you've been looking to try equally as easy (while supporting a podcast you may not have otherwise found). You can view lists of offers based on podcast, sponsor, or categories of sponsors. It's pretty slow going work but I am working to make it as useful as possible.Įssentially what it is is a directory of promo codes or links that anyone can use to get discounts from the different sponsors listed in various podcasts. Podcast Promo Codes is a site that I have recently launched and am working every day to populate. I wanted to share a project I have been working on in hopes that it helps you support your favorite podcasts as well as some you may not have heard of before.
