"Those are gorgeous!" Violet exclaimed noticing the bouquet Ruby had in hand. It had been a great day of exploring more of what Nightrest had to offer. Vi was in search of a space for an art studio. Figured she could settle some roots here and have it pan out better than her last attempt. "Thanks again for today! I definitely owe you a milkshake after this!" she smiled, feeling like it'd be the perfect way to end the day.

I would peel a pomegranate for you.

Shapeshifter characters are so inherently tragic and i eat that shit up every time. I fucking LOVE when a character's sense of identity hinges upon being anyone but themself. Like yesssss babygirl struggle with your identity as an individual person and not just a reflection of others youre so sexy haha

You know, since it's Pride Month (and also I miss them), I feel like reminding everyone how fucking important Ruby and Sapphire were.

The way they were both unambiguously conceived as queer characters and let the writers make an established character queer retroactively. The fact that as soon as they share the screen, they immediately show how in love they are, without any ambiguity to please the censors, and they do that almost every episode they're in.

How their relationship isn't always 100% perfect, and they do conflict and fall out, but make up in the end because they genuinely love each other. How they were allowed to be iconic parts of the show, not just through being the focus of two of its most famous songs (Stronger Than You and Here Comes A Thought) but also through the book version of The Answer.

The fact they got the first gay kiss...

...and the first gay wedding in the history of kid's TV.

The way their reception showed networks that yes, people do enjoy media with queer characters, and so they contributed to many other series with prominent LGBTQ characters getting greenlit.

I honestly don't think it's exaggerating to say they're among the most important queer characters in the history of fiction for all that. And people need to say it more, and demand stuff like them more.

#I'm obsessed with the fact that Jackie and Ruby go to the same bar, which could mean nothing.

Ah, yes, the three types of Doctor Who episodes:

Silly space nonsense that is just a thinly veiled critique of one of society's current issues

Unexpected historical figures show up and do cool stuff that will never make it into any history books

The most traumatizing and anti-capitalistic 45 minutes of television you will ever see

they should invent making friendship bracelets for online friends

the doctor dna-scanning ruby like immediately after meeting her is SO funny he's still traumatized from amy's pregnancy and the clara echoes he said we are getting AHEAD of this nonsense
