Just Sterek Trash Honestly

andavs:

Because I saw this post and it inspired me to post my own idea of what the Stilinski house looks like. Ignoring the parts that don’t make any sense.

---

So here’s the exterior we’re given in 3B. I’m assuming this is the back of the house, since there’s no address or porch light, and no sidewalk anywhere. Just a sad concrete slab under the stoop.

I have issues with these side wings tacked on here because they don’t match up to what we’ve been shown of the inside. Also there’s a window in Stiles’ room, in this very scene, that would probably be partly inside the roof on the right.

There’s a garage that factors in here somewhere. We see it in season 2 when the Sheriff tells Stiles he’s been suspended, and it looks like it’s a two car garage. (It’s also a very nice brick, which doesn’t go with this siding shown, and I’m devastated about it, because I really love brick.) 

(Side note: Sheriff parks on the right, Stiles on the left.)

There’s a door out the back of the garage, not a square window, so in that exterior shot, it would be on the left side of the house. But it looks like you can see a bit of the house through the back door, so based off of this image below, it would be on the right.

Downstairs interior!

The only time we see this is in the first season, when the Sheriff seems to be set up working in the dining room. Which also has a couch and a television for some probably-lowkey-angsty reason.

But beyond that at the back of the house is the kitchen. There’s a window just visible through the doorway, so that is an exterior wall, and the little nook at the back fits with the back exit of the house. In the exterior shot, it doesn’t look deep enough to have counters, but since it does in the picture here, I’m assuming it’s a small mudroom, maybe has a washer and dryer.

Here we see that there’s a door out of the dining room to the left, next to the TV. 

The angle of the very ugly landscape painting makes it look like a hallway or a room leading straight out from the dining room, but that doesn’t make a whole lot of sense, because:

Another reason this dining/living room combo makes no sense is that there seems to be a front room behind the Sheriff below. And that side window means the attached garage on the left makes no sense; the window would be right in the middle of it.

So based on all of these pictures, and ignoring the parts that don’t make sense, my version of the downstairs interior is this:

I also threw in a breakfast table in the kitchen, which I assume is piled high with stuff so they can’t actually use it.

As for the upstairs, it’s a mess. We’ve only seen Stiles’ room and the hallway, and his room doesn’t actually match up with the back corner they put it in for the exterior shot in 3B.

In season 1, it seems to be at the top of the stairs. There’s been a couple scenes where the Sheriff is walking past from the left to right like he’s heading downstairs to leave for work, so the hallway extends past Stiles’ room, probably to a bathroom and the Sheriff’s room, maybe a guest room or office. 

I don’t know why that back wall of Stiles’ room doesn’t have a window, unless there’s a very long and thin bathroom at the top of the stairs. But this seems to be the layout of that corner of the upstairs:

But in the exterior shot from the beginning of 3B, it’s in the back corner of the upstairs, and the window on the left it looks like there’s another bedroom next to his. So Stiles’ room would open right into another bedroom, and the hallway doesn’t work anymore.

I’m assuming the difference has something to do with them moving production to California, maybe getting different people for some departments, losing sets or houses they shot in, but it’s very annoying. And I’m not even going to go into that bullshit standing in for the Stilinski house in 6A.

(There was a disturbing lack of fish in that house, and somehow I doubt that: A) he picked up fishing obsessively after Claudia died, B) Claudia didn’t allow any fish paraphernalia and the second she died, he hung up six fish on plaques, or C) somehow his fishing obsession is tied to Stiles being his son, because neither of them have ever mentioned it.)

(Though forced fishing trips are one of my favorite things in fic.)

Anthropology major answer: “There absolutely was such a time! Modern humans and our ancestors shared territory numerous times over prehistory with cousin species like homo neanderthalensis, homo floresiensis, and many, many others!” 

Folklore student answer: “Also, almost all cultures have something like djinn, faeries, hulder, fox spirits, and other similar creatures who can appear at least human and are very, very dangerous to humans!” 

Both of these things are true, and may be connected both to the above and to each other. :D

Biology majors: it’s dead bodies guys. Corpses.

Listen I hate this take on the uncanny valley so fucking much because many subpsecies of homonids lived in the same areas but some of them got along well enough to coexist and neandertals had enough desirable genetic traits to the point where human women (see here for a blanket on female vs male choosiness) would often pass up incel homosepian for the chad neandertal.

Genetics aside, various hominid species didn’t start visually looking all that different until 50,000 years ago, while under the skin changes began as early as 89,000 years ago (ie the development of the Y chromosome but I might be oversimplifying at this point) Point being, even our non-human cousins didn’t. look. that. different. from. us. Especially comparing the diversifying of humans themselves crossing trans continental as it was. And even then neandertals still had advantagious traits for living in the Eurasian hemisphere.

Also I digress, regardless of it being intentional, and with few perserved records from that chapter in our species’ history, I don’t like the implication that the uncanny valley effect stems from humans being inherently racist (for lack of a word for hatred of non-human intelligences). I know that sounds off the wall but prejudice and sense of superiority by birthright is vastly different than othering by means of the sucess of social groups and the need to compete for territory or resources. Racism is entirely a Eurpean fabrication and it’s been proven time and time again to be a cultural outlier and purposfully designed to further the agenda of corroded theocratical religious divinity (here, here, here) and the financial benifits of the exploitation of colonism that otherwise has not been replicated by other cultures to the same degree. (this is the only example off the top of my head but I’m know there’s more.)

You know what’s older than racism?

You know what’s more flesh crawling than neandertals?

fucking rabies

You know what LOOKS like a human but doesn’t ACT human ENOUGH? Do you know what might bite you and get you sick or turn you into something that also moves about in a non human way? Brain parasites that give you painful headaches and intensifies agression and confusion.

Say you’re a monkey and one member of your troop gets bitten by something. Later he starts twitching and swaying about. He keeps stumbling out of trees but barely feels anything when he hits the ground. He won’t eat sleep or drink. He makes guttural noises that keep alerting predators and he’s in obvious writhing agony. Suddenly he’s not your friend anymore. He doesn’t recognize you and he attempts to bite and claw at anything that moves.

Up until preventitive oral medications and vaccines were developed in the 1970s there was NOTHING stopping rabies and it still prevails today and kills hundreds of thousands of people in third world countries with limited medical resources a year. There’s no cure for rabies once youve got it and the only reliable diagnostic is a brain autopsy.

Rabies. TB. Leoprosy. Syphilis. Meningitis. Toxoplasmosis. Anthrax. Mercury Poisoning. Prion disease. These are all bad and in different varying degrees can cause limps, sores, agression, confusion or dazed trances, ambled pacing, convulsions or uncharacteristic behavior in humans.

Basically everything that people are terrified of when it comes to zombies. Vampires bite. Werewolves rip people apart. Demonic possesion? Easy. Changlings take the place of your loved ones.

Also I don’t think that it’s a conicidence that the things we find uncomfortable with the uncanny valley also just happen to line up with predatory behavior, smiling too wide or staring you down, blinking too slowly or moving towards you with a slow steady speed. It’s just a danger signal to keep other monkeys in a troop from getting bitten by an infected monkey. Simple as that.

After all what’s scarier? A dead body, or moving body that will MAKE you dead?

I’m not going to be a hypocrite by pointing out racism being excused as a stemmed human behavior without claiming that the deep seated primal fear of disease doesn’t make a good excuse for ableism as well. I mean we use othering to discern friend from foe, and then at some point decided that was a good enough excuse for racism. Theres legitimate proof that ancient homonids could and would be hospitible to the disabled out of compassion. The point of having these initial fears is to guage saftey measures first, but once someone or something is proven to be harmless that normally should be the end of it. I mean if an adult wild silverback gorrilla can look at a spycam and decide it’s chill after a moment of inspection then there’s really no excuse for any of us.

Healthy othering =/= newly invented racism.

healthy fear of infectious diseases =/= excuse to hate disabled people.

But yeah rabies is more likely the reason for the uncanny valley effect thanks for coming to my goddamn ted talk.

Reblogging this version bc of sources and I personally think this makes for much more interesting (and terrifying) lore than any other post in this thread.

Holy shit. I never thought of the “zombie virus” to be this take. It makes total fuckin sense. Shit

poor Jason for knowing exactly what Tim and Dick are capable of and absolutely no one believing him when he tries to point it out

-

“Tim has literally blown up the League, he REGULARLY LIES TO BATMAN”

“Jason, please. Tim would never”

-

“Jay we just don’t understand why you think Dick is ‘a menace to society’…”

“Have you met him?!!!”

-

The only person who would have any idea is Babs and I firmly believe she elects to ignore it or, even more likely, finds immense joy in watching this play out

morgangalaxy45:

Tim would probably be really embarrassed to introduce Bernard to his family because he would think that his boyfriend would find his family super weird but in actuality, Bernard is just really happy to find other people to talk about his conspiracy theories with besides Tim

My god.

Can you imagine Jason listening to Bernards theories? This gives me life.

Jason, pointing at Tim: that child is morally grey at best

One of my favourite Batfamily dynamics is Jason doing this at every opportunity and absolutely no one believing him.

100% of the future Tims we’ve seen have been villains, and this is not by chance.

holycalf:

still so charmed by the way rose tyler is so unapologetically working class without the narrative like. consistently telling you that. it’s all stuff you see between her flat and her bottle blonde hair with roots poking through and and her clumpy mascara and her clothes that don’t fit quite right and her passion for looking out for the underdog. it’s just so refreshing to have the protagonist of a show not be so squeaky clean and polished or a complete antihero but just some completely normal girl shaped by the way she grew up
