[stellaapologist]

I think my blog title is really funny because like. I'm categorically not a Stella apologist. She's canonically an abusive monster, and I fully recognize that. I'm not going to sit here and pretend that she's anything other than a horrible person, or theorize about how maybe she's a good mother when I know that would make no sense from a doylist perspective.

what I DO think, however, is that Stella deserved better. She, as one of the only notable female characters in the show and the only female antagonist, deserves to be a complex and well thought out character, rather than swinging between a laughing stock and tool for punishment in service of her male counterpart. She, and female characters in general, deserve to have their emotions taken seriously by the narrative and not be reduced to cartoonishly dumb, eternally evil tropes. I mean, "I like tormenting you"? Seriously?

So I'm not a Stella apologist in the traditional sense– I'm not apologizing for her, I'm apologizing to her. And hopefully with my rewrite, I'll be able to give her some justice.

also LET HER INTO THE PRIDE PARADE YOU FUCKING COWARDS I SWEAR TO SHIT–

Something I cannot wait to see is blitz actually meeting Stella. Him seeing how Stolas had been living for so long, giving further context to why he desperately clung to him. But more than that blitz immediately being like "you did this to him? [Sent striker] [everything else] fucking DIE BITCH!" And Stolas is forced to intervene because "THAT'S VIA'S MOTHER we can't KILL HER!!" It'll be such a fun dynamic to bear witness to.

Trick or treeeeeaaat🧟🎃🍬🍂

Ask refers to ask box trick-or-treating (fic writer edition).

You get a... a 3-sentence fic!

🌠.

A sharp cry pierced through your dream, and you tried to blink awake, barely making out the 03:38 on the clock on the nightstand.

"Just sleep, darling, I'll get her," came the drowsy murmur from behind your back, and even as Steve was speaking, he was getting up from the bed to head to the nursery.

You drifted back to sleep to the sound of soft cooing coming from the baby monitor as your husband consoled your daughter with gentle 'Oh it's alright, little one, shh, Papa's going to keep you safe from all harm, make sure you and Mama have everything you could ask for.' and smiled to yourself, knowing that he would keep that promise.

🌠.

It's still technically three sentences. 😇 Thank you for stopping by.

Ngl, I think my only real wish for the series is that at some point Aaravos and Stella have some sort of bonding moment.

The only two Startouch creatures that we really see on screen, one of which is a jailed war criminal and the other a tiny thieving gremlin.

What would be more adorable to see than our beloved touch starved elf snuggling with a cheeky little cuddle monkey? And I mean, just imagine all the mischief they could get into with each other.

I've been thinking this ever since the pride month image dropped. Sorry for the quality, I only have a phone for making these.

[funhouse-mirror-barbie]

Can’t stop thinking about the tweet I saw a while ago that said something along the lines of “I bet HB criticals are gonna say that there wasn’t any proof of Stella being abusive to Octavia just because we’ve never seen them interact smh”

Like.

It’s almost like parody at this point…they can’t have been serious right?

[the-jellyfish-collective]

no shame for any answer, i’m just genuinely curious

[little-pup-pip]

Hello everyone!! I have an important pride month question for you guys!

[calissarowan]

Gantlos: Hi, excuse me, I’m looking for my boyfriend? He’s about this tall, with a pink Mohawk and a general disregard for his own safety?

Police Officer: I’m sorry, there’s nobody at the station that fits that description.

Gantlos: Ah, okay, I’ll just wait for him here then. He’ll be in eventually.

(Fifteen minutes later)

Brandon, to the police officer: Hi, I’m looking for my girlfriend, about this tall, blonde, easily enthused about bad ideas?

Gantlos, sitting in the waiting area: They’re not here yet. We’re early.

[the-starlit-author]

Mind telling me who this Zelura person even is?

@dual-dragons

Haha- what? :D

.. could you repeat that, I think I misheard you. :]

[stellar-solar-flare]

hi! saw your reblog about the “fanfics that have a permanent place in your heart” and i’m just curious about what are the fanfics that you keep in YOUR heart. (also sorry if you’ve been asked about your fav fanfics before haha). bc for centuries is certainly one of mine btw!!

Oh no worries, I don't recall being asked this and also I'm always happy to shower my fellow creators with praise they absolutely deserve!

So it's probably no surprise to anyone but the fic (series) that has captivated my heart most is the Star Trek AU by my dear best friend, soul sister, and beta reader StarfleetStgMgr. Her Star and Dove (AO3, Chris Pike/OFC, mostly explicit) is not only the best and most mind-blowing fix it I've ever read but also one of the best romances ever. She's amazing and I have no idea what kind of crossroads demon she bribed to get this good at writing.

She also has multiple amazing Steve Rogers/Reader fics and I recommend all of them but the one that has stayed in my heart most has to be Keeper, (AO3, Explicit) which is a great Halloween read by the way, if anyone is looking for that! It's a story about love, healing, and battles we all fight - and a Reader who takes... quite an interesting job and meets an interesting gentleman. Lots of mythology elements and some horror elements and again, amazing romance.

I love @anika-ann's Steve fics, so again, I'd like to recommend so many, but the ones that I think about on a weekly basis are Anika's takes on Medieval Knight Steve in her two series, In The Name Of Duty and The Witch and Her Knight (both Steve/Reader and ranging from T to Explicit between the fics in series). Anika's Steve characterization is beautiful, and she writes great team dynamics and has a knack for inventing very Avengers-like missions in her non-AU fics! Links lead to AO3 but she's also on tumblr.

I very rarely read Blip/Endgame fics but @darsynia's Ephemera (Steve Rogers/Reader, Explicit)is so absolutely beautiful and even though it's been a long time since I read it the first time, it has stayed in my heart.

Recently, I've been beta reading for my writer friend @wild-typo-turtle - her The Rings Of Power fic Threads (Gil-galad/OFC, Explicit) is incredible and I'm enjoying it tremendously. It has one of the best OFCs I've encountered ever and the romantic soulmate aspect of the Elves is so well done. I haven't watched The Rings Of Power but I love Tolkien and especially The Silmarillion, and it's been wonderful to enjoy this take on the Elvish society and the war against Sauron.

Another recent discovery that I've been enjoying a lot is @steviebbboi's Steve Rogers/OFC longfic Red, (Explicit) which has another awesome OFC character and very well-handled themes of complex emotions and trauma, and a lovely (right now) budding romance.

There are so many amazing fics in the world but I made myself limit to the reply to the ones that have had the most profound effect on me. I have a tag 'Stella Recommends' on my blog, where you can write more of the stuff I've enjoyed! Thank you for the lovely ask.

rayla goes insane for callum being all sweet with stella

callum does love stella, but he loves rayla's reaction even more

everytime she sees him being all sweet with Stella she just goes:

since he knows the ocean arcanum now I can imagine him learning a bubbles spell to play with Stella. Rayla dies out of cuteness watching them play and Callum dies out of Rayla's cuteness.
