#brainstew gen v spoilers
Slaps this up as I wait for the new episode.
because i looked up cipher clips, youtube recommended clips from some movie where hamish linklater has the most pathetic sex scene.
talking homelander and stillwell level pathetic.
Paper Year (2017) - Roadside Cheating Scene (8/10) |...
Fucking ads.
Bezos, you don't need more money.
RECAP TIIIIIME.
oh no.
LOL MARIE BRINGING CATE ALONG BECAUSE SHE KNEW SHE'D SNITCH IF SHE LEFT HER.
commercials again
i wish marie brought jordan.
did annabeth see her parents' death?
the door is open to cipher's house?
POLARITY.
REST.
was he going to
cipher
you sound so in love
oh no
OH NO
she healed him!
but oh god, that wiped her out so much.
cate isn't happy.
is cate going to backstab
or will she keep her word
greg
THE FUCKING HEMPLE THING
"marie, you're adorbs."
"you're welcome, boo."
sir.
SIR.
that bondage baby is going to die.
marie
marie why did
WHY DID YOU
DON'T DO IT
he had a cat
and was fired from blockbuster
sighs hard. ethan slater, you are a downgrade.
well. hamish gets to play a normal dude for like a minute.
grosskelly: you know the cipher fandom groaned in pain upon losing hamish linklater.
i will admit its a shame to lose hamish lol what a performance
even nailed it as a lame random human
a poor homeless dude.
though... did being around godolkin slow the aging?
though i have been looking at stuff with hamish without the beard, and he was very baby faced without it back in the 00's.
STILL no reveal on why godolkin knew that injection wouldn't work (BUT... a aerosol version worked i guess??
yeah that is bothering me.
also kinda annoyed how everyone was pushing marie to fix cate when marie had very good reasons not to trust her.
yeah what the hell polarity
SHE HAS A VERY GOOD REASON NOT TO FIX HER
polarity was letting his guilt talk.
also it's probably commentary how sometimes black men value white women's opinions more than black women's.
i am feeling weird since i knew the whole cipher is a puppet thing was coming but somehow i am still like wow, sad
yeah im not gonna lie i was like YEAHH WE WERE RIGHT and then just... oh lol
HAMISH WAS REALLY FANTASTIC I DONT THINK THIS OTHER GUY HAS HALF HIS AURA
he doesn't at all.
and i was dreading it.
i was open to it being interesting but it is unfortunately a huge flop for me
maybe he was too injured to fully transfer and botched it and so marie just finishes transferring him into a working body idk
let us keep hamish lol
ethan slater's claim to fame is cheating on his wife with ariana grande.
he simply doesn't have 'soaking wet freak' energy
quietly tries to figure out how to fix this in the au.
i am like is the lack of height that makes slater seem meh?
after seeing how cipher looked smug, slater did not have an ounce of that rizz
but homelander is shorter than hughie and butcher and still scares people shitless.
cipher abruptly lost 15 charisma points when he went back to his original body
his line reads are a total flop also compared to how gnawed on they were by cipher
london thor did a better cipher than slater.
calling marie BOO oh my god
yeah its feeling like a lame actor problem unfortunately
a lame actor who has connections
i'm sure they noticed but had written themselves into a corner by the time they did lol
or yeah maybe just a connection thing
i mean, i think castiel and the other winchester brother sucks as actors but they get work
they both DEEPLY suck
huge shame tbh
maybe they couldn't afford hamish in the main series lol
we're supposed to buy that sage loves this man but christ.
she had chemistry with cipher
or kripke fell in love with his idea and refused to change it.
look its a great & properly telegraphed twist but also WHY would you cast a super charismatic character actor and then... replace him at the last minute
AND AGAIN. HAMISH INSTANTLY CHANGED INTO A DIFFERENT GUY??? I KNOW THATS HIS JOB BUT ALSO DANG
with a fucking flat actor
SUDDENLY HE'S JUST SOME HOMELESS GUY WITH A CAT
HE CHANGED TO A SAD GUY IN PAIN
BLURTING DETAILS IN A PANIC
a man who has been beholding horrors beyond his comprehension
god is he gonna be the reason it all fails, bcuz that guy knows his plans technically lmfao
give us that.
at least.
or have godolkin gets killed and sage drags this poor man along
hoping to get the memories out of him
i'd take it!!
i immediately have no stakes in godolkin lol
I guess Godolkin got the good v since he didn't look older when he healed.
mentally beaming his immortal v to his puppet
they actually shoulda had him switching puppets periodically lol now its weird that cipher hasn't aged either
CIPHER REALLY IS JUST SOME GUY
A homeless guy with a cat. A cat that probably died at least two decades ago.
its crazy that he's had like. no new facts about himself since then
that'd be so fucked lmao
LAST TIME I WAS ME I HAD A CAT
I was kinda kicking around why in my AU Cipher didn't use Rabbit to fix Godolkin since she can alter the bodies of others. (In rp stuff my partner had Tek Knight blackmail her into fixing his brain tumor.)
But her healing involves her needing to like... feed someone a piece of herself.
And with her always in a state of survival, her powers kind of love pillaging other organisms cells.
So it's not a dependable method.
She isn't Marie. Her powers are more about pure survival for Rabbit and Rabbit alone.
There are similarities, but it's like how gods from the same pantheon can overlap.
grosskelly: YEAH
HELLO I AM A NORMAL HUSKY (rabbits cells to anyone elses cells)
godolkin tries to use her and instead loses a large chunk of his body mass and has to jump ship into the head of a poor homeless man.
rabbit tries to heal godolkin but her flesh starts to assimilate him, so he bails out fully into cipher, pushing the homeless ma- HAHAHAAHAH
YEAH EXACTLY. ITS CANON I THINK
godolkin wanting marie to fix what remains of his body but it just fucking backfires.
since marie doesn't seem able to regrow flesh.
she just regenerated what was already there, ie lots of scar tissue to roll back and heal
and with her sister, her head wasn't OFF. she just knit what was already there together.
arguably, she would struggle to recover from having her throat slit without a blood transfusion tho
yeeeah
godolkin's body regenerating but this weird thing happening where now there's two of these assholes.
because of how he's been living for so long the brains are linked
or marie accidentally reactiving the scant amount of rabbit cells remaining in the old body
not everything is stored in one godolkin
so now we have cipher
and we have godolkin
both of them trying to kill each other in a fit
.... is it ever revealed how old sage is??? bcuz she's a god tier supe and idk if she knew Godolkin Before or just got involved later on
that i am curious about.
a-train said he knew her from the kix and she didn't last long.
maybe she gave up on the whole thing when homelander became a thing, but now that there's a chance to actually get rid of him, its game on again
HMMM
but stormfront never aged either, and we know sage can regenerate from a LOBOTOMY
and a shot to the head.
she should've bled out from a SHOT TO THE DAMN HEAD.
YEAH.
US RIGHT NOW.
off topic but googling 'conspiracy charlie' brings up more than just gifs of charlie day jfkdsjlfkdjglkjlkg
oh no
WHAT NONSENSE
i guess israel got him & not some mormon kid
OH MY GOD
last i checked, it was that the etsy witches cast real spells on him.
i liked that one
that one was fun.
fucking conspiracy charlie.
i should've known better but i didn't think about that small faced freak even when he was alive LOL
googling terms like i'm DARMOK AND JALAD AT TANAGRA (WHEN THE WALLS FELL)
i blame the world for becoming The Onion Dimension when i wasn't looking
au idea. marie heals godolkin's old body but it being brain dead. cipher then really lashing out when he realizes he can't go back to being "himself."
OHHHHHH
VERY GOOD
another idea. back to marie doing the healing and oops. there was one dormant rabbit cell in it. (them using fire to stop the original assimilation? so he's extra crispy??)
that cell then just making a horrifying monstrosity of a body that godolkin has no hopes of controlling now.
OHHH i think u gotta keep that lol. torching the rabbit cells leading to people learning decades later that you can't fully kill her that way
HOW MANY OF US HAVE SLEEPER RABBITS
kind of a take on how rabbits irl are an invasive species
by no choice of their own, mind you
IF THEY CATCH YOU THEY WILL KILL YOU
BUT THEY MUST CATCH YOU
godolkin left in the body of a human.
sage left very Unhappy.
homelander left confused as to why he smells his ex wife there when he shows up to laser the akira flesh creature at godolkin
also wtf, THAT MARIE KID IS ALIVE?
I lasered her!!
homelander is going to be extremely upset that he isnt supe jesus anymore
DEI AT WORK, PEOPLE.
OH SO A WHITE MAN CANT BE JESUS ANYMORE??? BECAUSE OF WOKE??
JESUS HAS TO BE A WOMAN NOW? A BLACK WOMAN? NEXT THING YOU'RE GONNA TELL ME IS SHE'S GAY--
Homelander then sees Jordan change from one form to another to kiss Marie and just stares
Homelander then sees Jordan change from one form to another to kiss Marie and just stares
He just stares
Curls up on the ground with his cape and sobs.
total meltdown
Marie then explodes him.
Series solved.
Hughie then has to kill Butcher to keep him from doing a genocide.
Hughie then needs all the therapy he can afford.
Stan Edgar starts a new pharmaceutical company with a different name. Vought is now considered poison.
conspiracy point: what the fuck is up with greg
is he rly just... some random helpful guy??? poor emma has nothing to do other than Have Romances atm
grosskelly: I was hopeful that Emma would get to do more with the Starlighters. Then Sam returned to the plot and we're now stuck with a love triangle.
greg looks like a baby homelander.
like if someone said, "this boy is homelander's son," i would believe it.
Silent Hill 🤝 Resident Evil
Two IPs that will never have good movie adaptations.
Two IPs that will never have good movie adaptations.
I told Alan how Hamish was playing Cipher's poor victim. Alan was sad that the man had a cat.
"His cat would be dead!"
godolkin probably picked doug because he longed to be a tall twink.
ethan slater is 5'7"
godolkin longed to be tall.
ok u said so earlier but seeing this pic of him now, hamish just doesn't really age so maybe he isn't immortal he just ages immaculately lol
was thinking about his callouts about marie's self harm & his own propensity to self harm 
grosskelly: he externalizes all the negative self-talk.
hamish is BABY FACED without his beard.
LEGIT BABYMODE
JUST A LIL GUY
tall ass noodle.
sopping wet pool noodle
they probably told him to grow the beard so he'd look more like an adult.
i mean they weren't wrong rofl

IF HE HAD NO BEARD IT WOULD INStANTLY READ AS IMMORTAL. it still did for me but i can see now that his age is plausible jfkdsjflk
this is how he looked back in 2018
SCREAM!!!!!
AND THIS IS ONE OF HIS GROSSEST CHARACTERS.
look at this sad wet newborn fawn
just wanna squeeeeeeze until his eyes pop out
...guys
now that we know definitely for sure that godolkin was just puppeting cipher... how did everyone in that room get mega cancer death tentacles but HE got an insane level of mind control power???? did the aerosol version have something to do with it??
did the aerosol version have something to do with it??
straight through the blood-brain barrier first instead of it circulating through his system and being absorbed that way?
wondering how quickly he nabbed cipher - was it just some homeless guy that was in the closest alley? he obviously wasn't going to be able to do an exhaustive search as a burned up french fry
grosskelly: that is a good question.
he would've had to nab some random person.
and body hopped over the years.
and maybe poor blockbuster doug was one of the longest running puppets.
the fire happened back in 1967
that leaves a big gap
TRUE TRUE. and he might not immediately understand his powers either, and since he was RUNNING to warn the others, maybe he couldn't trust certain people either
if doug is hamish's actual age
hamish can def play younger lmfao 
he was born in 76...
he isn't even 50 yet
he was cipher for at least 20 years
doug was.
MAN, THE CAT THING.
justice for doug and buster
doug prob just wanted to get high and rewind returned vhs tapes to afford to feed his kitty cat
bro has had the Worst Life
NO NEW MEMORIES BESIDES WHATEVER THE MONSTER CONTROLLING YOU IS DOING
STILL FULLY INTACT CONCIOUSNESS
Godolkin and Sage used him as a damn sex toy...
i showed eli clips from the newest episode.
they were impressed by how hamish switched into a different character so well.
i know this is the boy's universe but let poor doug find a nice play to stay and let him get a new cat.
please lol someone help doug
give him a box of kittens
and a job at a no kill shelter maybe
altho to be fair... surely all godolkins account info is accessible by him LOL
DO A BANK RUN DOUG!!!
....STEAL THE CASH
STEAL IT, DOUG
ITS MORALLY CORRECT
Instagram
...wait
oh my fuck
the puppet man was named doug
CIPHER IN THE X-MEN COMICS IS NAMED DOUG.
IT JUST HIT ME
the terrible truth
grosskelly: glad we're not alone in not liking ethan slater.
it is actually hard for me to be excited for the finale bcuz hamish won't be hamming it up
