Probably unpopular confession but as much as I love the relationships in the chibnall era and the rtd era, i dont think they had anything on the Moffat era relationships. And I don't just mean romantic relationships, I mean all of them.
I see people say a lot that the relationships between the 13th doctor and companions isn't strong enough but tbh I dont find them any less interesting and engaging than the rtd era relationships, but the moffat era relationships oh my god. They all drive me insane

EPISODE 13 TRIVIA:
- it starts off with charlie going "usually i would do an intro here but instead im just going to scream. HOLY FUCKING SHIT WHAT THE *HELL* WAS THAT MAN" so thats the energy we're dealing with here
- a chorus of "FUCK MAL. FUCK MAL. I HATE HIM. IM GONNA SHOOT HIM WITH A GUN."
- charlie talking through the thought process of why he accepted the offer: "my first thought was to get out of the room and smash the bottle. nat 1 happens. okay switching gears theres no way out. he sees dakota and vyncent saying no and thinks 'okay a hero wouldnt do that.' then he turns back around and sees tide torn apart behind mal and has this horrible realization that we just did a chore for him to make him more powerful. so william thoight about it logically and thought 'i already hate these powers, im gonna take this so that mal doesnt get stronger. if i dont have this, someone worse is going to take it. even if i never use it i cant take the risk to let him have it'"
- when vyncent said "you disgust me william" charlie said it took everything in his power not to respond with "yeah me too" hey what if i cried
- bizly revealed that mal wouldn't have taken the power for himself. it was a test. if william didn't take it he wouldve offered it to vyncent (if vyncent accepted it, he wouldve gotten the samurai class :) )
- condi DID NOT expect this aspect of vyncents backstory to come up so early! "he loves dakota and william theyre his best friends but this is compared to his *family*. his *mom*"
- bizly had charlie compile a list of potential powers he would want to get from the spirit world and thats where the smoke thing came from (another one on this list is blood bending. like from atla. hello??????? another one is "ghost frogs" and he does not remember wtf that means. apparently charlie "just because i put them on the list doesnt necessarily mean i want them, i was just trying to think of thematically creepy things" )
- "im not going to use the smoke powers unless some real character development happens. william is already so ashamed of his own powers and now he just has this immense guilt on top of that. he literally only took it because he couldnt stand the thought of mal using it instead. AND THEN BIZLY TOLD ME HE WASNT GOING TO DO THAT and vyncent would have gotten a cool class so now all ive done is inflict pain and suffering" hi :)
- the dc for the strength check against vyncent getting grabbed by mal at the end was purposefully impossible to pass (it was like. 25 or something. vyncent only has a +2 to strength )
IF CHARLIE HAD SAID "yeah me too" WHEN VYNCENT SAID "you disgust me" I WOULD HAVE LOST IT I THINK. WIWI MY TRAGIC LITTLE GUY. MY DUDE
VYNCENT COULD HAVE GOTTEN A SAMURAI CLASS??? THATS SO COOL OH MAN but wiwi has smoke powers now :3 i hope he uses them more in the next season i wanna see more of wiwi and his powers :3
that strength check purposely being impossible to pass. that's so cool actually it kind of feels like mal is so powerful even the narrative is working for him. fuck mal all my homies hate mal <3

listen, you KNOW what i love about your portrayal. i love steven so much i want to pick him up and squeeze him. you took a character with minimal lines or characterization in canon and you made him into such a unique, silly guy. and i know i call him silly all the time but he also has such depth of character???
like. guy who has been working with fazbear entertainment since he was a teenager and has been Experiencing the Horrors ever since and yet still hasnt become disillusioned with the company or quit because he CANT. because he doesnt KNOW anything else. because he would rather quite literally work himself to death at fazbears than have to figure out who he is outside the company. than have to unpack what hes been complicit in covering up. than have to face the fact that hes played quite an instrumental part in leading other employees to their deaths or to being grievously injured. hes done such horrible things but really what else was he going to do? if he dug too deep into the incidents he probably wouldve ended up just like them.
i just. ur pg is such a good example of someone who never intended to cause any harm – someone with an innate desire to do good, even – who got put in an impossible situation, one where there were no 'right answers.' steven is a man who did what he had to do to survive and even then it wasnt enough. he drives me insane /pos. i absolutely love the way you interpret him. i enjoy every single one of our threads we have going and the moment i have some free time im going back to work on them.
what is one thing you like about the way i play my character?
;;
BRO THIS IS T_T T_T THIS IS SO SO SO SO SO KIND HOLY SHIT. can i steal this for his about page /lh.
but fr it's so incredibly touching to see that it's come through so well. like. i dont even know if i could have written all this out so cleanly / put my thoughts about him into words like this, but you're absolutely SPOT ON and it's so lovely to see that 1. i've done justice to his characterization 2. others are picking up what im putting down /lh.
you are such an absolute JOY to write with and plot with. thank you for exploring so many different characters, scenarios, and vibes with me!! i can't tell you how much i adore your characterizations, writing style, and little one-liners in dms that i steal for discord statuses. never ANY rush... we will simply rotate our blorbos in our minds together <3 /LH LH

Does the time loop involve a concert? It happened so often but no concert. I don't think a concert. And my friend moved and more people moved and its impossible but its possible the time loop didnt involve a concert. My friend is taking me to a concert for my birthday, my favourite band in the entire world. A special day. But I spent time with my friends and I remember the whole thing and the entire time because it happened before. But I remember all my loops only after they happened but I know I would remember my favourite band and meeting them in person because vip tickets. But they wipe my memory somehow and i'm only allowed to remember it while it's happening and I have to remember first and it's okay it's happening again. I promise. There's some hope in me somewhere that I'm not actually dead and dying and I'll be okay and that maybe they'll let me out if I do a good enough job not messing up the time loop and aending the world out of orbit somehow. But I don't remember a concert but I do remember Thomas the tank engine and how they remove their faces if the teain gets decomissioned, which must also be how Cars work, right? How Ship of Thesias are they? I remember them. But I don't remembet a concery which means time is moving but it is still moving and sometimes i wonder if the mold in my windowsil between my windows is the problem and if I move out of somewhere with mold yhen I'll actually be okay and it was all the molda fault. But mold is neat, very fun. I'm allergic to some of it and that's okay, that's my fault becquse it helps other people that are not me. And then i have to ask why i don't remember a concert and why? What's wrong with me i hope ahe doesnt give the ticket away and remembers she was inviting me in the first place i love the band what a nice birthday present ill never be able to pay back how devasting in the end. Its going to be songs from thwir new album i qssume and that means that im probably foi g to know all the words before she doea becase i listen to marianas trench so much and ahe dowan and I hope i get to keep the ticket because I have a little colelction now and i promise i'll take a bunch of pictures to remembet the concert because itll be wonderfuland realy apeciq to me idont remember a concert but i memorised that one video entirely and then i mm memorising anothet one because i watch it so much because i need siunr and it sounds long. I'm playing a pot of bg3 lately and its incredible and special yo me and i any yo kiss that wizard man so much, he seems wonderful and he seems like ged help me throygh peychosis and be sweet to me and i want tat so bqdly because i love him hes my ideal man and im back into dnd interests again and it makes me question what year it is all ovet again and i have to wonder if ive been in the hospital yhis entire time because why? I've nevet been this fucked ip brfore why now? What have I done? Have i forsaken a goddess i idnt intend to follow? I dont really believe in any gods or goddesses specifically but i believe in magic and i hope theres something more or else my dead cousin is just dead and everything stopped and maybe i couldmbe saved him if only unus annus hadnt ended 2 days before because i wouldve known the sadness and dread was because i was paychic and i knew ehat was coming but connected it to the wrong thing. I dont even remember him dying but i remember the water and the engine water how long will it survive? Dad wore a kilt to the funeral and it felt weird becayse that was honouring for a different person and not my cousin. Weird times. I remember pieces of it but not everything and i dont remember much the last year who told her i dont like bar concetts? Why does she think that?

my long ass review for S32E03 Now Museum, Now You Don’t
Tumblr media Tumblr media
warning: LONG because i rambled about history more than i thought i would
id been looking forward to this one because i like art history, especially after seeing how they tried their best to stick to historical accuracy in the previous episode I, Carumbus. this time however….they didnt try that hard. i dont know why i thought theyd go through that sort of trouble again LMAO
but its okay, i dont really expect the simpsons to be the paragon of historical accuracy or anything. especially in anthology episodes told through a particular character's lens (in this case, lisa, whos already feverish so whatever)
first i just wanna say that this is, i guess, less of a review and more of an accidental list of history fun facts. so im just gonna get my general thoughts out of the way first.
the episode was fun! to me at least haha. i mean it got me to think and do a lot of research on my own so that must count for something. besides a couple of really weird ones, the jokes were good. anthology episodes tend to be….not that good but i thought this one was one of the better ones so far. idk.
anyway on to lisanardo da vinky its the renaissance! jesus christ the italian accents in the beginning of this segment were annoying as hell but i also feel like that was the joke lmao. ill be real i kind of tuned out for a second there when grampa started rambling so idk what he said.
i told myself i wouldnt get nitpicky with historical accuracy if the jokes were funny (final edit: so that was a lie) but this meh bit with the pizza guys and mascots was really not worth ignoring the fact that its impossible for italy to have any tomato-based food in the 15th century (tomatoes were brought to europe from the americas in the 16th century, and pizza as we know it today—flatbread, cheese, tomato—originated in the late 18th century)
Tumblr media
oh this next part was kind of legit tho. lisanardo, like the real leonardo, became andrea del verrochio's apprentice at his workshop. i loved this next bit:
Tumblr media
"Whoever paints the sweetest cherub will have the honor of having MY name signed on their work. That's what great artists do!"
Tumblr media
SO YEAH as it turns out, lisanardo painted the sweetest cherubs. the painting here is called The Baptism of Christ, and the real leonardo assisted verrochio in finishing it. specifically, he painted the cherubs in the corner.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
this causes verrochio to quit and go someplace with less talented people: a music school (yes, verrochio did quit painting after getting owned by young leo and his mad angel painting skills. he never did anything with music tho, he was more of a sculptor)
alongside lisanardo, in mr largo-verrochio's workshop we have barticelli (botticelli bart), dolphatello (donatello dolph), ralphael (raphael...ralph) and mediocrito (no one that i know of. sorry milhouse) (and kearney i guess but they dont refer to him by name). botticelli and donatello are said to have also been apprentices at verrochio's workshop, but raphael came a couple of decades later so he couldnt have been there. and donatello was too old so that claim is a bit questionable. but anyway
it IS true that leonardo's peers envied him, to the point where he was anonymously and purposefully accused of being gay (a major crime punishable by death in 15th century florence) while he was still working at verrochio's workshop
we are then treated by what im pretty sure is the fourth time the show has used 'at seventeen' by janis ian, this time sung by a dejected lisanardo (man they really do keep making yeardley sing these days huh) who only wishes to be appreciated and not envied.
Tumblr media
"I'll show them all! I'll show them all in a secret diary that no one will decipher for 400 years!"
Tumblr media
some of lisanardo's future inventions. who wouldve known
so after barticelli, for some reason (revenge??? or something?? what was his plan here idgi) steals lisanardo's diaries full of blueprints of her inventions and takes them to mr burns who i have to assume is pope alexander VI here, they decide to use her inventions for war.
Tumblr media
"With these, we can kill the most evil people in the world!! ....Slightly different Christians."
leo actually did this of his own accord. im surprised this is what they decided to do with lisanardo instead of talking about leo's love of nature and vegetarianism (not a single mention of that in this episode? come on...) then again, trying to do good only to end up indirectly making things worse is a very standard lisa storyline. i guess they didnt want to miss the chance to have evil pope burns (very fitting, especially for that era since they were all about money and controlling the people)
so lisanardo decides to leave for france, unlike the real leonardo who was more or less persuaded by his ultimate fanboy king francis I to move to france.
Tumblr media
"Lisanardo, I have many questions. Why are you hitting yourself? A nerd says 'what'? And how is it possible that I am rubber and you are glue? Et cetera, et cetera."
that line may seem a little random, like hes just nelson saying nelson things (and i mean, obviously he is) but the real francis also "had an unquenchable thirst for learning, and Leonardo was the world’s best source of experimental knowledge. He could teach the king about almost any subject there was to know, from how the eye works to why the moon shines." so yeah, he did have many questions and lisanardo, finally being appreciated for her intellect, was happy to answer them all. its very interesting how lisa assigned this role to nelson in her retelling of da vinci’s life :^)
and so she lived the rest of her days in france, nat king cole's 'mona lisa' plays because duh, and they make a da vinci code reference because duh. and the segment ends. and not a single time did they show the actual mona lisa painting. the fuck?
Tumblr media
(ngl i was fully expecting bart to say 'leonardo da vinky' for a second here)
so this next segment is about french impressionist painters, most likely the batignolles group, a name adopted by the early representatives of impressionism. its much more vague than the lisanardo segment since no one here is referred to by name (except moe, more on him in a sec) but i dont feel like it really matters in this case. bart is prrrrooobably claude monet but its hard to say, this segment is kind of a mish-mash of a lot of things. also i gotta say i really liked how lisa introduced the story to bart with an 'if you hate the formal study of art' and not 'if you hate art' because thats exactly my headcanon. i LOVE the concept of artist bart and whenever its referenced it just makes perfect sense to me.
anyway the segment opens in 1863 at the école des beaux-arts (back then it was actually known as the académie des beaux-arts), preserver of traditional french art styles. skinner reviews his students’ paintings one by one. praises the plain, unimaginative paintings depicting your typical european countryside landscapes. very run-of-the-mill (haha get it...cuz theres….a windmill) (although the real académie didnt approve of such basic stuff, they wanted artists to draw epic historical and mythological scenes) then he gets to barts painting and he gives him an F- because the painting made him think.
Tumblr media
(the paintings in this scene arent real famous paintings as far as i know but they are inspired by real paintings enough to get the point across)
in comes barney dressed as bacchus as a model for the students to sketch, which i just loved:
Tumblr media
barney: “You prefer robe open or robe off?” skinner: “Just cover your privates with this walnut shell.” barney: “Whoa!!! So roomy!”
skinner gasps in horror at bart’s sketch, which “looks nothing like him” and bart explains that “it shouldn’t; we’re making the art that we feel because we can’t compete with a camera.” damn, you go bart. take that, realism. draw what you feel!!
Tumblr media
(also no, you didnt need to hold still for 17 hours for a daguerreotype. 30 min tops.)
nelson haw-haw of the week: FOIE-gras!
so here they are at the moulin rouge (“enjoy it before baz luhrmann ruins it” hey shut up. i love that movie), which wouldnt be built for another 26 years, but it is the most widely known gathering place for bohemians in the public consciousness so i can understand why they went with the moulin. nelson delivers this anachronistic line:
Tumblr media
“This époque keeps getting beller and beller!”
which alludes to la belle époque, the golden age of france usually dated from 1880 to 1914. made me snort so ill let that slide
and heres moe! as henri de toulouse-lautrec, who was actually born a year after the year this segment is set in. yo moe szyslak he was just 1
Tumblr media
toulouse-moetrec introduces himself as the chronicler of the demimonde (not an actual job). an iconic figure associated with the moulin rouge (largely due to his affinity for alcohol and prostitutes), toulouse-lautrec was also a painter, having illustrated a series of posters for the moulin himself. he simply had to be in this segment, anachronisms be damned, just because they decided to include the moulin. cant have one without the other.
and yes he did have a walking cane where he kept his liquor.
Tumblr media
i love how everyone drinks absinthe in this place. theyre bohemians what else would they drink
toulouse-moetrec points out that barts paintings are the greatest thing hes ever seen (and hes seen like five things!) and that hes a genius. milhouse realizes that they should stop doing what the teacher says and use their own minds to instead...start doing what bart says lmao. to the easels!
next we have skinner hyping up chalmers about the art his students made for the salon de paris, an art exhibition that the emperor of france will attend. he assures him that none of these paintings will encourage debate, provoke thought or be out of place at a dentist’s office. when they unveil the art, theyre both SHOCKED at how scandalous the paintings actually are.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
this reaction was kind of accurate. impressionism was severely rejected at the salon de paris, due to paintings not looking finished enough to them, they thought they were ugly and vulgar for depicting nudity in a contemporary setting (historical and mythological nudity was fine). these impressionist paintings were sent to the salon de refusés, which is. yeah. the place where they sent the rejects. the salon de refusés does not make an appearance but this scene makes a reference to it when the artists get expelled from the royal salon. also:
Tumblr media
“What about our student loans?” “Oh they’ll be refunded. We are not barbarians, I mean, come on.”
(god if only)
so the painters are down because they want the emperor to actually see their paintings. toulouse-moetrec pipes in once again with an idea.
“There is one thing the emperor loves more than anything.” “France?” “No, he hates France.”
apparently the emperor really loves cheese, which makes sense since its napoleon III (who loved cheese) and homer (who loves cheese.) so the painters roll into the salon inside a giant wheel of cheese (obviously.) as lenny said, “Eh, you know French cheese. Very runny.” napoleon III chases after the wheel into a room, where the wheel falls apart after getting chomped on by the emperor. now that they got his attention, the painters proudly show the emperor their impressionist art, which he couldnt be more indifferent about because he just wants to eat his cheese dammit, and he awards them with the royal medallion just to kind of get them out of his way. skinner immediately starts kissing ass (as he does) until marge’s like ‘hey wait a minute. you expelled these students from the royal salon’ and an executioner immediately starts ominously measuring skinners neck.
Tumblr media
“Uh, sir...is your tongue sticking out because you’re dead or because you’re mad at me?”
and thats the end of that lmao (gore in this episode, gore in the last episode, and next week we’re getting gore too cuz its THOH, what the hell is goin on)
we get a short intermission with maggie, who wants a story for her too! lisa tells her that renaissance artists loved to put babies in their paintings, especially baby angels.
Tumblr media
here she is showing her The Triumph Of Galatea by raphael:
Tumblr media
King David Playing The Harp by peter paul reubens:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
and a very simplified version of pretty much any depiction of hell by hyeronimus bosch lmao:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
not much else to say about this one, really. but i really liked that sky!
Tumblr media
the last segment is about frida kahlo and diego rivera. or as bart puts it ‘the one about a fat guy whos wife is too good for him.’ i was REALLY looking forward to this one because i love frida and i thought itd be a cool opportunity for animators to go bonkers and do really cool shit with her art as inspiration…..but the segment is not about frida, its about diego and his selling out to capitalism. and its also yet another story with homer and marge drama. no funky cool animation here. sigh i guess i’ll take it
the story begins in 1929 at la casa azul, frida’s home (now museum dedicated to her life and work.) frida and diego are getting married. this courtyard definitely did not look this way yet back in 1929. also theres something very cringy yet funny about lovejoy saying spanish words the way he does, i honestly cant decide how i feel about that one
Tumblr media
the writers know theyre being cringy with their gringoness so they go along with it.
moe: “Spanish for ‘best wishes’!” mel: “Spanish for ‘congratulations’!” bumblebee man: “Spanish for ‘muy bueno’!”
OH YEAH BUMBLEBEE MAN this is his new voice actor, eric lopez! hes not mexican but its still great to finally have a latino actor voicing a latino character and hes very excited to be part of the show so i hope to hear more of him!! im rooting for him
el barto/zorro makes an appearance which i am very confused about. he has jack shit to do with frida and diego and mexico in the 20s-30s. el zorro was set in the spanish california of the early 19th century. their use of the original theme song makes me think they just wanted to flex their disney privileges tbh
Tumblr media
lets not talk about that that whole scene was bad
anyway diego announces he and frida are going to new york, without even asking her first. frida is obviously pissed.
Tumblr media
“Don’t worry, as a woman, you’ll be treated with much more respect in America.”
so in new york, diego is having a bit of a business meeting with mr burns as one of the members of the rockefellers, who is commissioning him to draw a mural for the rockefeller center. its kinda funny how he refers to him and frida as socialists even though they were very much communists lmao its okay you can say it. ok so far, but then frida says ‘yes, we hate the capitalists! right now, a young socialist is being born who will take them down! mr. bernie sanders. i hope hes quick about it’ and that was a simple enough joke and couldve been left at that but then its immediately followed by this weird as fuck family guy-esque cutaway gag to bernie as a baby:
Tumblr media
“Getting a cootie shot should not cost your lunch money. And if you don’t listen to me, listen to the Bernie Babies! What? Everybody’s got goons.” *larger babies start beating up this other baby* “I disavow that, and welcome it.”
this confused me so much that i had to ask one of my american friends to help me understand, but even she was like ‘uhhh yeah thats a weird joke,’ especially now that hes been out of the race for months (then again these episodes take almost a year to produce. i guess they couldnt be bothered to replace it with something more relevant.) whatever that was weird and confusing and unfunny moving on
frida is pretty irked that diego is going through with this deal. after all, it goes against everything they believe in. im not sure how the real frida felt about diego doing the mural, but she did feel a bit of rage during her visit to the united states, especially the obvious disparity between rich and poor. she hated having to interact with capitalists and found americans very boring. in this segment, frida seems to be acting more like the american communist party, which diego got kicked out of for accepting commissions from wealthy patrons. in any case, frida is pretty upset about this whole thing.
and finally we get the first and only kind of surreal frida moment. kinda. maybe. its more cartoonish than anything but im desperate ok
Tumblr media Tumblr media
interesting how they felt like they had to add a “don’t smoke” in big letters after showing patty and selma flying away on their giant cigarettes. i wonder if this is something theyre making them do now? i remember hearing something about them toning down patty and selma’s smoking
diego comes home to frida, drunk as hell, followed by the marx brothers. i cant believe they didnt make a marxism joke come on it was RIGHT THERE. THE MARX BROTHERS. KARL MARX. COME ON
Tumblr media
frida paints her feelings.
Tumblr media
this makes diego realize that frida is a genius and he is not half the artist she is. he proclaims he will now show his awe of her by sleeping with other women, starting “an hour ago.” to which frida replies, “and i will start sleeping with other women, starting two hours ago.” yes this was pretty much their relationship. though im just wondering how the hell did diego not know frida was this kind of artist until now? i know homers an idiot but jeez. art was how frida and diego met, diego knew from the get-go that frida was an incredible artist. i guess the fame got to his head or something. again, homer just being stupid.
Tumblr media
“well enough already, while the art is still deco, okay?”
its time for the mural diego painted, Man At The Crossroads, to be unveiled:
Tumblr media
rockefeller examines it. good and great so far, and then...uh oh
Tumblr media
“Who’s that fellow…? With the beard, and the bolshevik smile…” “That’s the founder of Soviet Russia, Lenin!”
Tumblr media
“B-b-but he’s a communist!” “Oh he just attended a couple of meetings.”
rockefeller will not have this communist in the temple to capitalism that is the rockefeller center, so he orders diego to paint over it. diego stands his ground and refuses. despite rockefeller’s threats, diego says that theres only one person he wants to be proud of him no matter what and in true homer & marge fashion, frida is touched by this. they happily leave the rockefeller center.
now, the real story of Man At The Crossroads and the rockefeller center was actually not that different. as soon as the rockefellers found out diego had snuck in a portrait of lenin into the mural, they ordered him to paint over it, to which he refused. diego even offered to include abraham lincoln and even american abolitionists in the mural as a compromise, but the rockefellers simply did not want any references to communism whatsoever. they did not complain about the hammer and sickle, though. yes, they did know diego was a communist and hired him anyway. what did they expect? lmao. diego said:
"Rather than mutilate the conception [of the mural], I shall prefer the physical destruction of the conception in its entirety, but preserving, at least, its integrity."
so they decided to destroy the mural before it was even finished and they never talked to each other again.
Tumblr media
diego then repainted the mural at the palacio de bellas artes back in mexico, this time known as Man, Controller of the Universe. this new version included even more communist leaders and a depiction of john d. rockefeller jr. drinking at a nightclub, right underneath a depiction of syphilis bacteria. cue nelson haw-haw:
Tumblr media
this was the version they used in the episode also, since the original was, well, never finished and also destroyed. only a black and white photograph of it exists, taken by diego before it was destroyed so he could remake it.
right so, homer!diego then pulls a Barthood and finishes the episode with a large mural summarizing the entire episode. he says some rick and morty thing i didnt get because i dont watch the show idk idc
Tumblr media
the end
ALRIGHT NOW ITS TIME FOR THE STORY OF VINCENT VAN MOE

Family isnt all about blood.
Tumblr media
She finally was happy and felt safe, she shouldve known you cant stop running from your past and not have it catch up on you, but she doesnt want to lose her brother or her loved even if it meant she suffered.....she really shouldve expected this after all, she was a Taylor and no one walks away from that family.
It didnt really bother her that her brother never settled down with a partner, he had his reasons and trust issues that Ana knew, as long as he was safe, that's all that would matter for now. Granted, she would love for him to find someone but she wasnt going to force that on him either. They were both there for one another and he had accepted Ransom as well. Truthfully, she couldnt be happier and maybe that was the problem. Her happiness had blinded her to what was to come.
"Dads in town" those words made her drop her fork and look wide eyed at her brother but then she picked up her fork "guess he found out about my new job" her tone was flat, their Dad could go to Hell for all she cared right now. He abandoned them so he didnt exist and she wasnt going to let him play the Daddy role just because he found out his so called daughter now had money.
She felt Marty's eyes on her but she carried on with her meal "if he calls you, dont answer" she looked at him "I'm not that stupid" "i wasnt saying you were, I'm just....protective" his words made her smile, she had two protective men in her life, her brother and the love of her life and she loved them both for it "I know" she reached out for his arm "but that man isnt going to walk into our lives again after everything. He had his chances"
No more was said about that man for a couple of days, she got several missed calls from an unknown number and after checking it wasn't anything to do with her work, Ransom or his family, she blocked and ignored any more. She shouldve known ignoring him wouldnt make him go away.
"I'll be over later, just need a shower....an actual shower " she smirked into the phone "give me half an hour and I'll be there. I love you" she hing up the phone to Ransom as she walked into her house. A shower and a change of clothes was a must, she wanted to get rid of work more than anything right now.
Closing the door, she gasped as a hand went across her mouth and dragged her back, her heels falling off her feet as she tried to stay upright. She felt the coldness of the gun resting on her temple, god she wished she hadnt known that feeling and she tried not to panic but then she saw her brother on his knees, all bloodied up from what looked like beatings.
Was this to do with sleeping with the wrong gal? It couldnt of been, Ransom had made sure he knew to only go after single women and Marty wasnt that stupid anymore. She swallowed against the hand as she tried to take in the dark setting, any detail to use against the people not allowed here. Her eyes begging for any sign that he was alright.
"You always were an ignorant brat" that voice made her blood run cold, how did he find her? As if to confirm who he was a tall man now came into view, taking her in and she knew it was the bastard father that abandoned them for money. The hand slid from her mouth and she spat at her father making him slap her hard and grab her throat. She heard Marty try and struggle to help her but then her father laughed "I see you've finally got your mothers fiesty side in you. Shame it didnt help her or you now"
Before she knew it she was tossed onto the floor, her head hitting the corner of the coffee table making her groan out. "Rich little Princess doesnt share with her family" Ana looked up at him "you're not my family, you walked out on us"
Her father grabbed her by the hair, pulling it with no remorse as he made her kneel infront of her brother "no I kicked your good for nothing brother out, you just followed like a weak little puppy" she chewed her inner cheek refusing to whimper at the pain he was causing her by pulling her hair. She looked at her brother, tears stinging her eye with the pain "you're not even half the man Marty is" again that earned her a toss to the ground and a kick to her back.
Biting back the groan, she exhaled harshly as she heard her brother beg for him to stop hurting her and turn back to him "no" she went to push up on her arms only for them to wobble but she didnt care "let him be the monster he always was"
This time when she was dragged by up to her feet she could feel the metallic taste of blood in her mouth, but as she was pinned back to the wall, she felt the suffocating pressure of a hand tightly over her mouth and nose as she grabbed his arm and dug her nails in his arm as he watched her try not to fight for breath.
"Be a good girl and I'll let you breath" there was only one perfect to ever call her that and it certainly wasnt him. It made her feel sick hearing it from those lips. She felt his other hand grip her throat as tears streamed down her cheeks, her lungs begging for breath but she wasnt gling to fight for it either. Half an hour, she just had to last half an hour and then Ransom would call her and wouldnt get any answer and knew something was wrong but then he would walk straight into this and she couldnt bare the thought of him getting hurt. What was she going to do?
Finally he was allowed to breathe as she fell to her knees gasping her breath. Maybe he saw her not struggling as compliance, right now she could care less. Blinking she tried to focus clearly then she heard her brother scream. Looking up she noticed the knife wound "no" "no" she was grabbed again and pinned to someones body as she growled out but she couldnt move.
"I'm going to fucking kill you" her brother growled out and Ana didnt have any complaints there. She hears her cell ring, fuck, it couldnt of been half an hour already. Her father got her phone and showed her the caller ID, Linda was calling her and as her father tossed her phone out into the hallway, she felt a dreaded feeling that having not been able to reach Ana, Linda would phone Ransom. She was in two minds if that was a good idea or not.
"Havent changed at all, still the low life whore than ever, Martin" her father sounded displeased but when was he happy "your sister achieves alot more than you but still needs teaching on how to act properly. What? You both thought I'd let you walk away, embarrass me and I'd never punish you both for it? Thanks to Ana taking on that job and a very helpful assistant I found exactly where you loved"
Her mind whizzed trying to think who wouldve given out her address, she was going to fire that person....if they ever got out "What do you want?" Her words seemed to echo around the room making all eyes appear on her "what inwant is respect and I'm going to get it from you both one way or another. You're both coming back home, whether it's in a body bag or three back of the car is up to you"
"Go to hell" both her brother and her seemed to say at the same time, she kicked back making the man holding her back off and groan "fucking bitch" he grabbed her by the hair "going to teach you a fucking lesson" he dragged her by her hair up the stairs, each step hitting her body like a punch as she tried to struggle and groaned out. Hearing her brother try and get free and call for her made her suddenly want to panic but she wasnt going to show the bastard dragging her she was now scared.
She heard commotion downstairs and her cell phone ringing, now she did want Ransom to come in and somehow not get hurt. Being rescued wasnt such a bad idea. She whimpered as she was thrown onto her bed, trying to get her mind focused on anything but the pain. As her legs were dragged she reached out ontop of the bedside table remembering she had opened a letter with her mothers old fashioned letter opener and managed to grab it. "Going to make you behave bitch" she rose her hand and plunged the letter opener into the side of her neck "go fuck yourself" blood splattered from his neck as she turned her head away and managed to crawl under and away from him as she panted sat on the floor out of his reach as she watched the man who worked for her father bleed to death. She didnt dare think what he was going to do to her as she desperately tried to control her breathing.
Her phone rang again and maybe she shouldve tried to make a run for it. Maybe by some miracle whoever was ringing, more likely ransom, would hear the struggle as she was captured again but she also knew that would cost her brothers life and she couldnt lose him. Swallowing, she blinked , she had killed a man, but it was in self defence but that thought tried to over take her.
Her hands was shaking, as far as she knew there was this dead guy and her father left. Crawling slowly to the body she yanked the letter opener off his neck, trying not to get too much blood on her. She gripped the letter opener tightly and looked under her bed. Didnt Ransom leave a cell under here and said he would collect it later? God she hoped he hadnt collected it already. She smiled as she felt the cell in her hand as she looked through the contact until she reached Ransoms main cell number, but as she dialed his number, she screamed as she was yanked back. She hadnt seen the other man in the room downstairs, another person with her father. She threw the vocal under the bed enough not to be seen as she kept screaming in hopes if Ransom picked up he could tell she was in danger.but not enough that the man grabbed her would know she had another cell.
Against the stairs left their marks and neither touch of the other man was gentle. She was covered in blood and likely to have bruises now too "the fucking bitch killed Roma" he threw her onto the other chair and tied her up.and gagged her. She struggled under the harsh slap of her father stung her face so much she felt like he had taken her skin off, even if it was impossible. She had to save her brother as he was bleeding, god knows to death but now tied down she was trying to think how. "Guess we're going to play this the hard way then. Bring it in" Ana swallowed, it could be anything knowing him and she couldnt quite see what it was as inwas dragged behind her.
"Marty all will.be forgiven, are you going to come.back.home?" Marty knew what that really meant for them both "fuck you" he moaned through his pain and before Ana could realise what was happening her chair was thrown back into.something ice cold. She realised it was a large tub of ice cold.water behind her as she struggled to not breathe in. There was noise.coming from above the surface but she couldnt make it out as her lungs fought for air then she was sat back up coughing for breath.
"Ana come home" Ana looked through her wet eyes "I'd rather die" again she was fallen back into the ice water. A father who tortured his children was no father at all but what was new for her? She gasped for air as she was pulled back up hearing her brother begging for her tonbe let go and he'll go back if she wasnt hurt anymore. They had broken her brother and she couldnt blame him really "no...no. I wont let you go back there" her throat was grabbed, she needed more air and then she heard someokenwalk up her steps "go check it out"
The other man left as her father looked back at her "if youd rather die then so be it" he whispered against her ear "you're not worth the rescue" with that he pushed her chair back into the water and let go, raising the gun he pressed it against her brother forehead.....

― s/o gets a nosebleed while holding hands
∘₊✧──────✧₊∘
request: hii! can i have hc for daichi, kuroo and tsukki reacting to their gf nosebleeding after they hold hands for the first time? i know its sounded impossible but its actually happened to me in middle school and im still ✨🧚‍♀️embarassed🧚‍♀️✨ abt it but i thought it was funny lol have a nice day btw!! ❤
includes: daichi, kuroo, tsukishima
warnings: blood LMFAO
length: ~600 
note: ANON HOW DID THIS HAPPEN?? pls tell me more IM SO INTRIGUED LMFAO LMFAO LMFAO…. anyways…. i hope you enjoy this!!
Tumblr media
― daichi sawamura.
the two of you are walking home after their practice
you had recently became karasuno’s back-up manager after yachi got sick
and in the short amount of time.. you fell for daichi
i mean who wouldnt?
he was caring and strong and a natural leader
daichi was the perfect man
it just so happened he fell for you too
it is a blessing from the heavens honestly
you guys havent hung out too often outside of practice, this was one of the first times
so your nerves were fr working on you something terrible
you were sweating, your mind was going a mile a minute, and you felt like every time you looked at daichi your heart was going to burst into flames
so when you felt his hand grabbing yours halfway into the walk??
jesus take the wheel
you didnt understand why he was looking at you like you had grown three heads until you felt the warm gush of blood on your upper lip
“oh my god”
thats genuinely all you could really say at this point
daichi is quick to pull out some napkins from his bag and dabbing at your nose and lip
“make sure to keep your head forward.. let all of the blood come out.” his voice was so warm and soothing
he didn’t make you feel like you were weird for having a nose bleed at an awful time like this
he patted your hair slowly to try and calm you down
but it worked you up even more
its a funny story to tell when you guys get a little bit older
Tumblr media
― tsukishima kei.
i pray for you
even if he is just as nervous as you are, the fact you got a nosebleed in this situation gives him PERFECT amount of teasing material 
when he grabs your hand and your nose starts gushing he just looks at you like 0_____0 for like 20 seconds before jumping into action
he grabs some napkins from his bag, pressing them against your face
you had never seen tsukishima look so flustered before
he looks... scared...
but you cant even focus enough to tease him because you feel like jumping off the side of a building at this point
your face feels so hot from the blush
after your nose stops bleeding he will look at you with an evil glint
“do i really work you up that bad?”
if your brain was working you wouldve said, “yes you do” to fluster him further but
alas
brain machine broke
so you just press your face into your hands
he teases you for the rest of your life about this
it’s hell
literal hell.
Tumblr media
― kuroo tetsurou.
idc what anybody says
this man is just as nervous as you are
he fr had to work up the courage to grab your hand for about 47 minutes 
you guys are sitting in the gym, taking a break between practice volleyball games
your legs are touching and so are your shoulders
but kuroo wants to touch you MORE
he wants to feel your hand
kinda strange but
so when your nose just gushes when his hand grasps yours
he feels as if his world is spinning
he freaks out so bad
yells at kenma to grab you tissues
kenma doesnt budge
instead lev gets you some
kuroo is holding the back of your head so gently
he’s hovering over you, patting away all the blood
he’s whispering things like, “good girl” and “stay still from me, ok?”
IT’S LITERALLY MAKING YOU BLEED MORE LMFAO
kuroo doesnt understand why this happens
but he nevers brings it up again
it is locked away deep inside his brain
good for you honestly

You’ll Be In My Heart: Chapt. 2
Tumblr media
Summary: Robin explains his proposition to Regina.
Also on AO3
It had been 5 years since Robin had seen Regina Mills. She had worn suits every day over the year long court battle and always looked so put together, despite having a toddler at home. He always commended her for that. She seemed so strong, until the verdict that was. He watched her break down into Daniel’s arms, looking more devastated than he had ever seen anyone.
 Now, she looked a lot more relaxed. She was wearing a pair of lounge pants and a long-sleeved shirt, her hair shorter. God, she was more beautiful than she had any right to be.
 “I don’t understand,” Regina said, pulling him out of his thoughts. “I tried for over a year to get him back. It’s impossible.”
“A lot has changed.” He stuffed his hands into his pockets. “I’ve been taking care of Henry for the past 4 years.”
Regina tilted her head. “I don’t understand. Emma was the one that got custody after the case.”
“Emma died a year after the verdict.”
 Regina’s eyes widened and she stepped away from the door, gesturing for him to come inside. He stepped into the house, looking around the comfortable yet meticulously decorated living room. On the mantle piece above the fire place were a few pictures, some of her and Henry, but most of just him. He had never seen baby pictures of his nephew. It was hard to think that he had once been a squishy little baby. In the pictures where he was held by his former adoptive mother, he was looking at her with all the love in the world.
 “What happened?” Regina asked.
“It was a car accident, her and my mom were in Spain together.”
“Was Henry with them? Is he alright?”
Robin had to hold back a laugh. There was so much he wanted to tell Regina, but his lawyer had advised him against it. “No, Henry was with my sister in California at the time. Emma barely took care of him anyway.”
Hurt filled Regina’s eyes and he couldn’t blame her. “So, you have custody of him now?”
“That’s the problem. After the accident, my father was given guardianship, but he was barely around to take care of him. Mary Margaret was doing her best to help, but she was just starting college. So, I took over. Henry lives with me.”
“I’m still a bit confused where I come in.”
 Robin sighed. Admitting his faults wasn’t his strong suit, he was pretty sure it wasn’t anyone’s.
 “Henry is a very smart little boy. He’s the type to do tons of research and ask for help when it comes to answers he can’t find. We spend a lot of time reading books or going over Google.” He let out a tiny chuckle. “I’ve learned more with him, than I did over my 4 years at Vassar.”
Regina shifted uncomfortably. It should’ve been her bragging about his accomplishments and he knew that. “That’s great.”
“The thing is, he’s starting to remember things. A lot of it is hazy. He can’t remember Emma at all, but he talks about you.”
“Me?”
“He says he remembers crying and holding onto a woman with dark hair. That you gave him lots of kisses and told him it’d be okay.”
Regina bit her lip. “That was the day he was taken away from me.”
“I figured. He’s been asking about why we don’t have baby pictures of him and where he was those first few years. I’ve done my best to explain. I’ve been doing my best period, but I know that Henry needs more than me, he needs a mother. Not just any mother…he needs you.”
“Well, that’s what I argued for two years. Your family didn’t care, they ripped him from me.”
“They were wrong. Mary Margaret and I tried to talk some sense into them, but nothing worked. You have to believe me, I never wanted this.”
“I don’t see how I can help you. What are you trying to say? You want to convince Leopold to give me custody? He wouldn’t do that 5 years ago. What’s going to change now?”
Robin let out a deep breath. “I’ve been fighting for the past couple of years for my father to let me adopt Henry. He’s called me “Dad” a few times and I can tell he wants to on a permanent basis. The issue is, Leopold doesn’t think that I can do it alone. He’s old fashioned, extremely so. Even though he’s a single man, he knows that one day he’ll die. He wants Henry to have a mother and a father, like he would’ve had if my mom hadn’t died alongside Emma.”
“So…what are you trying to say?”
“If we got married, he’d let us both adopt him.”
 Regina’s mouth dropped open and for the first time since he met her, she truly seemed speechless. He couldn’t blame her, he knew that this wasn’t the most conventional way. Robin had gone over it a million times in his head before he decided to open up this can of worms. He wanted to do the right thing for Henry and this was the only way he was going to be able to do it.
 “Marry you?” Regina asked incredulously after the shock wore off. “I barely even know you. I hate your family.”
“I know, and I don’t blame you. I’m not doing this for me, I wouldn’t expect us to even share a bed. It’s all for Henry.”
“You honestly think your father is going to let me adopt him again? After everything he did to take Henry from me?”
“I’ve discussed it with him. It was never about you, he didn’t want to hurt you and Daniel personally…”
“Well, he did! This entire thing ruined my marriage. I’m assuming you know that, or else you wouldn’t be here.”
Robin sighed, rubbing the back of his neck. “I hired a private investigator to look into you. I’m aware.”
“Of course.”
“Look, Leopold isn’t a great guy and that’s why I took Henry. He’s getting sicker by the day and I know he doesn’t have much longer. I want him to consent to the adoption before he dies, or else there’s going to be an uphill battle. He’s made it clear if I don’t get married before he dies, Henry will go with Mary Margaret and her husband. Which I know they would do, but it’s not what they want. They’re still young, not even ready for kids of their own, let alone an 8-year-old.”
 Robin could tell that Regina was actually considering it, which both surprised him and didn’t at the same time. He wasn’t asking for himself, he was asking for the little boy that they both clearly loved with everything in him.
“You’re sure your father approves of me?”
“He knows at this point, he can’t be choosey.”
She rolled her eyes. “Gee, thanks.”
“You know what I mean. Look, I love Henry. As much as I wish they hadn’t taken him from you, he’s become my entire world. If I lost him…I don’t know what I’d do.”
“Well, I already did.”
“And this is your chance to get him back. This marriage doesn’t even have to be forever. It’s just until my dad dies, then we can work out custody and all of that.”
“You’d be willing to split custody with me?”
“It’d kill me not to see him every day, but I want to do what’s right for him. That starts by marrying you.”
 Robin reached into his pocket, pulling out the black velvet box that had been burning a hole in it the 5-hour flight. He knew it was a long shot, but he had to pray that it would work. Flipping open the box, he revealed the diamond that he had selected.
 “Regina Mills, will you do me the honor of becoming my nephew’s mother…again?”

'There are bigger things to worry about – like saving my brother's life'
Well, not today. But he had to step up in late 2017 when his mother, Betty, phoned and said that Ash need a new kidney or he was going to die. "I'm going to give him mine," she said. Mum, with all due respect, yours probably isnt in the best condition, Ivan told her. He can have mine. Recalls Ivan: I felt quite good about the whole thing. I was helping him and I was helping myself at the same time. I got a rush out it: I can save my brothers life. You dont do that every day. The Panthers are using this match to raise awareness about organ donation. A whopping 70 per cent of Australians are willing to be an organ donor but only one in three have joined the Australian Organ Donor Register. DonateLife will have a marquee at Panthers Stadium on Friday night where fans can add their name to the register. People think they are on the register because you sign your drivers licence and thats not the case, Ivan said. A lot of people dont know that. I didnt know that even after I gave my brother a kidney. Youve got to do it online. When I hear about doing something online, Im like, Oh God. But I was shocked how easy it was. Loading Turning around his sides indifferent start to the season? Not so much. Its been a perfect storm in the lead-up to the first Tigers match since he got off the bus: a flogging at the hands of Melbourne; revelations that general manager of football Phil Gould shook hands with Wayne Bennett to coach this season as Panthers chairman Dave ONeill was doing the same with Cleary; and reports that Gould is on the outer at his own club. Im blown away how big this thing has been this week, Cleary says. Im happy where I am at but not happy about the way the team is playing. Weve started slowly but were an evolving side. If I knew getting touched up by Melbourne was such a crime I wouldve been locked up years ago. Its happened quite a few times. Im not the only one. When he signed with Penrith, did he forecast the finger of blame would be pointed directly at father and son when the side wasnt performing? Or head coach and halfback, he says. They will always feel the most pressure. Yeah, I definitely anticipated that sort of scrutiny but I didnt appreciate the level of it. Everyone is under pressure ... You soon realise you have to give yourself an uppercut because there are bigger things to worry about. Ivan Cleary And what about your relationship with Gould? I havent been reading it but you cant avoid it, he says. Hes fine. Were fine. I know Gus better than most people. Thats rare but I can say that, although theres plenty you dont know. Its all good. There is no drama here. Any truth to the suggestion you only came back on the condition that Gould didnt interfere with your football team? That was never brought up, Ivan says. Never part of any conversation. Gould and Ivan were locked in conversation on Monday morning, trying to find a way to beat the Tigers. Then Gould addressed the playing group. For more info go to: donatelife.gov.au. Gould to Sharks an outside bet at best Gould to the Sharks? Given the fact he lives in the Sutherland Shire, and the mindscrew that is Sydney traffic, it would certainly make the trip to work less painful.
Tumblr media
In demand? Phil Gould was spotted with Dino Mezzatesta at the Star, where the Sharks chairman is a casino executive.Credit:NRL Photos The Panthers board has been aware of speculation that Gould had been approached by the Sharks but, for his part, Gould says hes had no such approach. The story cranked up on Wednesday when he was spotted at The Star having coffee with Sharks chairman Dino Mezzatesta. Gould was there having lunch with a mate. Mezzatesta is chief operating officer of the casino and joined them afterwards. It's impossible to see Gould being at any other club other than the Penrith or the Roosters, where he coached in the 1990s. Meanwhile, deregistered Sharks coach Shane Flanagan has denied hes doing some work on the side for the NSW Waratahs. That doesnt mean hes unwanted. Were told that a couple of struggling NRL clubs made discreet inquiries to head office about the possibility of Flanagan being allowed to coach next year if they sacked their coach. The NRL has little appetite for Flanagan to return so soon. Hughes' relief after Butterfield scare Apart from the man himself, nobody was more relieved that former Knights prop Tony Butterfield survived a heart attack at the weekend than his teammate Mark Hughes.
Tumblr media
Harrowing: Knights old boys Tony Butterfield and Mark Hughes.Credit:Peter Stoop Butts, one of the great men of rugby league, suffered the heart attack in the sheds after playing for Hughes team in a celebrity Oztag match in Newcastle on Saturday. As he sipped a beer after the game, Butterfield said: I dont feel too great. He then vomited, started slurring his speech and then went into cardiac arrest. Rachel Paton, an intensive care nurse and the partner of former Knights player Daniel Abraham, was rushed into the room, took one look at Butterfield and launched herself at him, feverishly pumping his chest. While this was happening, Hughes was understandably beside himself. Since fighting off brain cancer, he has dedicated his life to raising awareness and funds for research through the Mark Hughes Foundation. Loading In doing so, hes called on all his former teammates to help, and given the unshakeable bond between them, not one has flinched. Butterfield initially didnt want to play in the charity match but did so at the urging of Hughes. Mate, it was harrowing, Hughes recalled. And I felt responsible because I convinced him to play. We were in the sheds having a beer after the game like we did when we played for the Knights and then It was just very, very tough to witness. Good to hear Butts is recovering in John Hunter Hospital and is in good spirits. The quote Hes great to watch but hes not God. Pope Francis on the universal worship of Barcelona FC star Lionel Messi. Well, of course hes not God. Former Dragons hooker Mark Riddell is. Thumbs up If you get the chance, get on the interweb and watch the moment Sharks coach John Morris told Bronson Xerri he will be making his NRL debut on Saturday night. It was captured on a hidden camera in Morris office and the raw emotion is a nice reminder of what sport is all about. Thumbs down Having made fun of gay figure skaters, then Adam Goodes during the Collingwood racism furore, then criticising Goodes during the indigenous round, then joking in White Ribbon Round about drowning Caroline Wilson, is anyone surprised Eddie McGuire ridiculed double amputee Cynthia Banham for a coin toss? Its a big weekend for Storm captain Cameron Smith, who only needs to score nine points against the Bulldogs at AAMI Park on Sunday to go past Hazem El Masri as the games all-time leading pointscorer. Its an even bigger weekend for all the horsies your humble columnist will put money on at Royal Randwick on Saturday for the first day of The Championships, which includes the time-honoured Doncaster Mile. Big weight to carry. Andrew Webster is Chief Sports Writer of The Sydney Morning Herald.

There arent as many intersex people as youre making them out to be. You are delusional. You are the one who doesnt understand biology. And what you are saying is transphobic because you are erasing needing dysphoria to be trans. A person is trans to transition to the opposite sex as close as possible to alleviate dysphoria. This includes genitalia. Genitalia is the most defining part of a cis body. If you have a penis you are male sexed. Because you have more testosterone. If you have a uterus you are female sexed. Because you have more estrogen. A cis body is what you biologically have. If you have a vagina you are biologically female and declaring that youre trans does not change that even with hormones unless you get it removed through surgery. But then you are still not a cis male because you lack what makes a male body male. A trans person will never be their target sex because it is literally medically impossible at this current time and date. You would need to have sex organ transplants and they just do not work. Having a penis grafted onto your body made out of your own tissue using the nerves in your clitoris isnt a real penis. It doesnt function like one. You still dont have a prostate in your body either. It is purely cosmetic. It is delusional to say otherwise. There are real standards to this but they literally unachievable right now with current medical science. A trans man is not a cis man, he does not a male sexed body. If he was born with a male sexed body he would no longer be trans he would be cis. A trans man isnt a cis woman because if she was born with a female sexed body she would no longer be trans. She wouldve been born afab. But she wasnt. She was born amab. So shes not a true woman. And transmen arent true men. They can all transition to get as close as possible to their target gender to look cis and alleviate their dysphoria, but they can never become the opposite sex. Sex isnt the same as gender. Stop grouping them together. Also intersex people are rare and they are outliers and are ultimately a moot point in your argument because i am sure you and the majority of people on this site arent intersex. You cant jump to using then as your main argument point when they aren't the majority of trans people. Its just factually incorrect to assume that everything that applies to a intersex person applies to everyone else. Intersex people are almost always assigned with a sex at birth so yes they do have "cis" bodies and when i say cis im saying sex congruent bodies. They have one sex organ that overrides the other so they are assigned accordingly. There arent many intersex people that are medically both. And i know thats the argument you are trying to make. Intersex people are more prone to dysphoria too i mean they have a medical condition.
Tumblr media
Biological sex is real and will always be part of a trans persons life?? I don’t understand how someone can deny that they were born XX or XY. You can’t just change your biological sex when youre trans. You live with what you were born with forever unless you get surgery. But even then??? You still have XX or XY chromosomes. You don’t magically get a cis body. This isnt transphobic this is literally science. This is reality.

also i spent most of last night accidentally trying to figure out the logistics of how the ghost-y things work in the light realm and then accidentally how the fuck a ghost could actually have a child????? because like. surely Losa doesnt actually let that happen. she finds the souls of the dead, gives them a small fragment of her soul, and carts them off. she doesnt let them have children????? for obvious reasons?????? surely ghosts cant have kids. so then how the fuck does alexa bear calar’s child????? she is a ghost?????
which then lead into a fucking rabbit hole.
the ultimate conclusion was that Losa gives fragments of her soul to the dead because otherwise they cannot survive in her realm (with the identical being true of Dalace, much to her dismay). but, well, royals already have god souls. quartaian royals have elra’s soul, and the Lune kingdom royals have xen’s soul. then the southern isles have caliyos. those are the major royal groups. there are technically ‘dalace royals’, which are her cultists, but thats.... a whole different matter.
so if you’re a royal with a tie to any of themajor deities, and you die, you then have TWO god souls. which is hardcore. So Alexa isin fact a minor royal from Lune, who died in an explosion of its capital city alongside her entire royal branch, neatly severed from the royal tree. this partly explains whyCalar has absolutely no idea who she is - she’s just a faceless noble. and she doesn’t exactly disclose this information to him, because she’s somewhat reasonably concerned he’ll treat her differently if he knows she’s part of the old nobility.  So she has a fragment of Xen’s soul.
in addition to this is Calar. Calar is just a peasant. he would have a latent magic, most humans do, but its either non-god originated or excessively diluted. he’s just a dude. however, he’s on a year long expedition in the light realm, which losa has actually consented to. But the light and dark realms are toxic to mortals. and so, in order to keep tabs on him and make sure he doesnt fucking die, losa has loaned part of her soul to calar. so on thetable we have a fragment of Xen’s soul and two fragment’s of Losa’s soul.
which is great and all. but, yknow, alexa died young, and she was a sheltered noble, and calar is a nice young man, annnd before anyone really thinks too hard about potential consequences the two have slept together. and i mean. hey. souls physicall manifest in heaven. something about losa’s soul. i dont know.
and thats fine. its probably not the first time a living person has fucked a ghost. i imagine a lot of people in the more magical eras ventured to the land and tried to have one last night with their dead lovers, to varying degrees of success depending on how nice they were to Losa beforehand. but in those cases, the love making was often the explicit purpose of the trip. theyve come to see their loved ones and have one last night before going back to the mortal realm. its not real bother. go for it! fuck the ghost! and they’ll explain this to losa beforehand. losa goes ‘hey the fuck are you doing in my kingdom’ ‘i wanna fuck my wife one last time’ ‘yea alright just leave before noon tomorrow alright?’ ‘sweet’.
but calar is here for a different reason. and losa did grant him that ability. she said ok, you can stay for a full year, gathering culture and knowledge. but then hegoes and fucks a ghost. a royal ghost. god dammit.
so losa’s kinda peeved when she does find out about it, but she decides its not really that big of an issue - humans fucked ghosts all the time back in her day, yknow - and so everyone moves on with their day.
except a few months later, its obvious that this ghost is pregnant. what the fuck do they do?????????? they go to losa, and she’s dumbfounded. h-how??????? uhhhhh. in essence, alexa having two god souls gave her a higher degree of ‘corporeality’. losa specifically tailors her soul fragments to not confer that sort of trait. but xen’s soul, which alexa also possesses, does not have that feature. so when xen’s mixed with losa’s, they sorta..... messed with the settings. which mean alexa was, for all intents and purposes, a living immortal. and this is true of most royal ghosts, or the ghosts of anyone who has been given more than one god soul for any reason (champions and dalace’s cultists, or ryaris’ wife Evelyn are good examples). and thats usually not an issue, because their partners arent also living immortals. like, theres a slight difference, i guess. even two royal ghosts getting it on probably wouldnt end up having a kid. because theres that slight element missing - being actually alive?? or a desire for kids. or smth like it.
but then calar comes along. a living hunk. unlike most ghost fuckers, he has a fragment of losa’ssoul because he’s staying long enough that the light realm would fuck him up if he didnt. and so you combine the two and suddenly Whoops???? ohdear.
its really uh. ill defined? it probably works on a rose quartz sort of logic. that gods arent naturally designed to bear children, but they CAN. this is true of ryaris, who did the magic bullshit so that she and evelyn could both have kids. and for a weird living immortal ghost, like any of the royal ghosts, that same thing is true, to a degree. but they usually dont know how to consciously manipulate that. alexa definitely do it deliberately. it was.... more a subconscious thing. see, two royal ghosts could fuck, but they likely wouldnt bear children because they know that ghosts Cant. the two both being ghosts means they subconsciously know its impossible, and they basically cock block themselves. everyones working off the logic that ghosts cant have kids, and so no ghosts can have kids. but alexa just sorta.... forgot??? in part because living humans coming to the light realm became exceptionally rare after all the gods decided to leave the realm of man alone, which actually wouldve happened shortly after Alexa died. so Alexa hasn’t actually learned this fact? when it comes to living humans??? because it wasnt explained to her. Losa never told them not to get nasty, and so never warnedthem. thats part of it, too - whenever people in grief came for a last night, Losa would explain some rules. and that kept shit orderly. but calara and alexa didn’t get those rules, and alexa has never heard them before...... so........ you know........ accidentally pull a rose quartz and make yourself capable of bearing a fully living child??????? whoopsies.
its extremely ill defined. which is half the point. like......... its a fucking weird occurence. like oh, GREAT, a fucking ghost is going to give birth to a living child, alright, fantastic, just what we’ve all wanted. losa’s really not into it. but she saysits fine as long as the news doesnt get out. which means basically as soon as its safe to take the kid away, calar must do so. even if it means cutting his year long expedition short, he MUST leave with the child as soon as possible. alexa won’t be punished, per se, but she’s not allowed to tell anyone about it. which really sucks for her, honestly. die in your twenties because your kingdom was taken over by a vengeful fire goddess and then the city gets blown up, then spend 200 years as a ghost before meeting a cute boy, accidentally getting pregnant and then never being allowed to see your child??? shits fucking rough. like, damn. losa probably let her leave to watch him a little, but his signal basically vanished after calar’s house burnt down. and while alexa has seen calar, and calar has explained what happened, neither of them have actually seen Skye since them. Naten’s arrival like 5 years later explains that, to his knowledge, his brother is still alive. but when naten (specifically naten) gets leave to go see if he can actuallyfind him, he finds that he’s run away fromhome and his signal is still dark. so thats nice.
its a big mess forthe whole family. not to mention that after Calar’s house burns down and everyone except Naten+Skye die, Calar rocks up in heaven and wow. its his wife and his girlfriend. his wife pre-deceased him by a few years, and she’d come across a concerned Alexa. and now theyre here for some.... explainations. alexa didnt even know calar had a wife and kids????like she had NO idea. and his wife genuinely assumed thatSkye was an orphan whom Calar had bonded with. so...even though alexa isnt supposed to like. say anything??? she kinda has to. mostly because she’s kind of pissed about not being told. given shes from 200 years ago, the culture was sorta different. cheating? noooo dude. so you feel that.
uhhh tl;dr alexa has two godsouls and accidentaly rose quartz-d a womb because she didn’t really think about it? and thats how skye became one of, if not the only, known light demigod. thanks and goodnight

4 Years
Four years ago on this day a young nineteen year old kid who had never stepped off his native land of North America, ventured East to the land of the rising sun all by himself. Completely unaware what awaited him or how this one day ultimatley altered his life trajectory forever.
It seems like so long ago but in reality what is four years but a blink? Honestly I would prefer if these days would pass by without any notice, if it hadnt been for Dayna this wouldve been just a normal May 1 which I was very glad for when I awoke yesterday morning for nothing but a fresh start to a new month.
It began as a defense mechanism. In grade twelve everyone was applying to universities, what everyone was to do in the next step of their lives once free from the bondage of the preliminary schooling system was a topic on everyones minds. I think it was just to make themselves feel better as they were plagued with their own uncertainty to their decisions.
“Hey Brett what are you going to do next year?” God I hated that question, their poisonous fake displays of interest was oozing from their lips.
“Im going to Japan”. I would say with a smile. This was the perfect sheild to deflect all. Nobody knew what for or why I would just say just to travel. Honestly I didnt truelly believe it myself or how id even get there. I knew I had to do something after school and the thought of working a crumby job forever was an impossibility, I had to pick something that was infinitely better than what everyone else was doing which was to keep going to school. Travel was that thing. Nobody can look down on it, when everyone was learning about ancient history and cultures I would actually be there experiencing it myself. So after flipping my car 5 times and collecting a nice checque from insurance I knew right then and there I had found my ticket. And yes of course I was scared, im scared shitless before every trip but its the call to action that if I dont do it, then im dead that forces me to do it.
I still remember an encounter I had at a hostel in Kagoshima. I told a guy this was my first trip ever and he said confidently “This is the first of many” and I replied “Man, I hope so!”. Which turned out to be very true. This four year journey has taught me so many invaluable lessons from money, to work ethic, patience, the feutility of collecting objects, and true happiness. I absolutley owe who I am today to these last four years. Theyve made me a stronger person in every way and I know this path is absolutely the best path that could have been taken over the plethora of options one has as an 18 year old. Taking the road less travelled has surely made all the difference.
This lifestyle will never get old, how can I possibly do anything different after coming back from the Amazon rain forest straight onto my motorbike as I ride to the bottom of South America? My goals have only grown larger and seemingly more impossible after each and every trip. I keep pushing the envelope. Everywhere I have been, everything ive done in these four years have only snowballed to even higher lengths. Where will I be in the next four years? That is the ultimate question. I forsee myself still taking the road less travelled. I think many hope I will settle down and start living “normally” and thats just not whats on the agenda.
This trip has changed everything. In more ways than I can possibly imagine sitting here now. Just how when I stepped on that plane to Japan I had no idea the chain of events that would unfold after, now I truelly feel something colossal brewing.
