sometimes I think people in the taz fandom don’t realize just how long a century is

like, there’s a reason people celebrate 50 year marriages, that’s a long time to spend with another person. the ipre crew did double that and still liked each other at the end of it. they all know each other to a degree that’s probably terrifying. 

Oh this is something I think about A LOT

Like ive read some fics that are like, ‘and this secret came out in cycle 12’ or ‘they finally felt comfortable enough to do whatever thing in cycle 23’ but like…..that’s more than a decade, more than 2 decades. That shit woulda happened within the first 5 years or so, if not the first damn year???

Like by the time they’ve got to 2 decades…think about people celebrating 20 year marriages–it’s A LONG ASS TIME. The degree of comfort they must be at by a century? I can’t even imagine!

I think it’s because we think of the cycles in numbers: 1-100, and ex. 23 or whatever is like, early in that. 23/100. But like……that’s YEARS. Holy FUCK.

I really want to see this explored, at some point, in fic.
