Is nobody realizing The Society is just a fucked up version of The Pied Piper of Hamelin?

It’s just me? Ok. Maybe I had weird bedtime stories.

In case y'all are unfamiliar, The Pied Piper of Hamelin is an old german story from the middle ages about a small town with a terrible rat problem. A mysterious stranger arrives in the town and offers to solve their rat problem for 1,000 gold coins. The Mayor agrees and the Piper uses his magical flute to entrance all the mice into following him down to a local river where they all willfully jump in and down. With the problem solved he goes back to collect but the Mayor and his council refuse to pay. In some versions it even goes as far as to say they blamed him for bringing the rats to try to weasel out of it.

So the Piper leaves, swearing revenge. A few days later a different tune could be heard, and all the children in the town were seen running and laughing, chasing this beautiful music out of town, away from their parents, like they were entranced.

In darker versions the Piper led them to the river and well, let’s just say the rats weren’t lonely…

But in my book…

He lead them to a stone door in a moutain to never be seen again.

Sounds familiar…

Like the rats could be a bad smell almost…

Ffs, the town the kids live in is literally called West Ham!

everybody say THANK YOU JOSE JULIAN for the jack mulhern content on behalf of everyone in the society fandom i salute you, a true grizz visser warrior.

let’s take a second to appreciate jack in that second one the whole look is just beautiful i-

Sam is so used to seeing sadness and anger through exaggerated and aggressive signing from Becca and Campbell that he’s caught by surprise when he sees Grizz sad. Because when Grizz shows despair, there’s a pain so deeply engrained in his eyes that Sam doesn’t need sign to decipher it and that pulls deeper at his heartstrings.

Grizz is so BIG. Like not just in terms of his height, he’s very tall but he also has a big chest and big biceps and big legs and his body type just screams athlete, but he never uses his size for intimidation and it even seems like he tries to downplay it with the huge, oversized clothes he wears. I have a head canon that sometimes he doesn’t really like how big he is because he doesn’t ever want people to see him as intimidating, which he would be if he had a different personality.

I didn’t even really notice how big he was until I saw him standing next to the other explorers and he was towering over all of them, because his personality is just so soft and low key and he’s very much an intellectual being more so than a physical being (not that you can’t be both, he clearly liked sports as well).

To see a person of his size and build cross his ankles and awkwardly press his hands into the bedsheets when the boy he likes kisses him is such an adorable thing and I love that they allowed him to take on a more submissive role in the relationship with Sam.

ok but that scene where Elle has to spit on Allie’s face and Allie is like ‘’it’s okay, do it, I understand.’’ and Elle says something that sounds like a threat but it’s actually a promise of help >>>>>>>>>>>>>> 

honestly a masterpiece

he wanted to kiss grizz SO BAD
