My brainrot today is thinking about just how incredible for a character Eowyn is.
Genuinely. The series might not have many female characters but the ones we do get go so fucking hard.
To me, Eowyn is literally the definition of defining being a woman for oneself. She rejects the roles she is given despite acknlowdging the importance and its mostly because she knows part of the reason is that she is a woman.
The reason why she is obsessed with Aragorn isn't because she loves him but because she wants what he has. She wants the freedom and courage and bravery that Aragorn has at every turn. She literally has multiple conversations during the Two Towers about how what she fears most is a cage. All this girl wants is the freedom to be and not be forced into a role. The best thing is that she literally gets that.
The segment of Return of the King about Eowyn and Faramir is literally about her piecing together what she truly wants. She doesn't want Aragorn. She wants freedom and the ability to choose. Faramir does nothing but encourage that in her. Their love story is literally one of the healthiest love stories I've seen in a long time because at the heart of it, their love is a place to return home to for both parties. Both go off to lead and help their people for a considerable amount of time before returning to each other but that does not diminish their bond. Even Faramir, I believe, falls in love with her bravery and dedication to her loved ones. The reason she went to Pelenor Fields and Gondor with the troops of Rohan was because she had things she wanted to fight for. She wanted to fight for herself, her people, and her loved ones. She is the one who protects Theoden after he is killed so that his body gets the treatment it deserves. She encourages Merry and helps him go to the battle because she sees her struggle in Merry. They feel helpless standing around when there are things to be doing.
Let's also not forget the fact that she was around Grima Wormtounge just as much as the King was. She was exposed to the same poison and awful words that eroded the king. It's even implied that her care for him is part of the reason why Theoden was savable when Gandalf showed up. She had the same power and bravery as everyone else even if she didn't see it in herself.
Then at the end of the day, SHE decides where she wants to go and what path she wants to walk. She walked the path of a warrior. The path of a princess/ruler. The path of a caretaker. But in the end she decides which elements truly mean something to her outside of gender definitions. That is what makes her character so incredible to me. In this she literally kills one of the biggest enemies in that battle with such a badass line.

"going to therapy makes you a worse person because you learn the words and therapy incantations to be more evil and manipulative" ok I guess we should all just kill ourselves

what kind of sauce are they putting in the link click audio drama. HELLO? THE LITERAL LAST SCENE OF THE LAST EPISODE?
程��时: 说起来,我们第一次见面,也是在篮球场吧。
陆光: 是啊。
程小时: 你我本无缘,全靠一颗球。
陆光: 我就不该答应你比那场。
cheng xiaoshi: speaking of which, the first time we met was also on a basketball court, wasn't it?
lu guang: it was.
cheng xiaoshi: (half-jokingly) you and i weren't meant to be [lit. "originally have no fate"?]. this is all because of one basketball.
lu guang: i really shouldn't have agreed to play that match.
(the important bits are from google translate because i am bad at mandarin. also i did transcribe this off just the audio + i don't have access to captions or know where to find official transcripts. so i hope i got this right 🙏)

I miss your SymWeaver art and your little head cannons! I hope you’re doing okay and having the best day possible! 🪷
I appreciate it!! I've been busy with teaching this year, so I haven't had a lot of time to post much! I have a ton of WIP doodles that I still have to finish!
In other news, I just got Sin'dorei and Cleric today, and I think they should be in a cleric x mage party together. Neither of them would have any particular destination or goal, outside of wanting to help people, so they typically would travel wherever Niran's whims take them
I wanna draw them because they look really cute together, so a chibi WIP under the cut

hello!!!! i just wanted to ask if we can expect a continuation for the series u have going on,, the one where reader and sashisu are in high school and stuff?? i js wanted to know cause they way you write them is SO CUTE. something abt ur writing just feels so genuine and sweet and it actually makes my heart melt!! anyways, no pressure or anything i just wanted to know!! <33
anon this is probably the scariest moment of my life i don’t know what kind of crazy soul connection you and i have but . um . i’m actually…. in the middle of finishing the suguru part of that series 😭 like . right now . i’ll probably post it in a couple hours. i wasn’t satisfied with the series as a whole so i kind of unofficially scrapped it, but i’ll probably still post the parts i had planned — just on their own!!! i’ll probably go back and delete the satoru part i already have posted and then repost it on its own after rewriting it too…..
anyway. sorry for letting you down anon, i’m honestly really surprised anyone remembers it :’3 but yeah!!! the summer/suguru part will be posted today, and then the autumn/shoko part some other time…… and then maybe the winter part too…………. so . i mean. i guess i technically will be finishing the series, the parts just won’t be officially connected or anything like that!! i really hope that makes sense 😭 i’m just… not suited to writing series i think . but i’m soso overjoyed that you like my sashisu!! 🥺 i actually ended up taking the ending i had planned for that series and turning it into this fic, so feel free to check it out if you’re interested <333

Apas-95 doing posts about how they are right about what it takes to train with firearms and getting workers military training while having never shot a gun in their life is really funny. What's kind of less funny is that they openly encourage people to commit felonies that would land any leftist training group in jail for 20+ years and bar them from ever handling firearms again. If they aren't an idiot they're a cop.
(tags are important I just wrote too much there and don't want to copy it here)
