The Celebrations of Queen Mary’s Rise to the Throne

In London on the 19th, in contrast to the silent reception of the heralds for Jane, Mary’s proclamation was joyously received: ‘bonfires were without number, and what with shouting and crying of the people and ringing of the belles, no one among us could hear what another said, besides banqueting and singing in the street for joy. Another anonymous London chronicle recorded similarly ‘the joy whereof wonderful for some caste money abroad, & some made bonfires through the whole city: the praises were given to God in the churches with te deum & organs, belles ringing & every where the tables spread in the streets, meats & drinks plenty, and wine given freely to many men’…although Guaras’s witty and ironic literary allusion comically exaggerated the people’s love, English sources bear out his reading of the public mood.

I think of all the jolly ways to please the endoderm, I'm hetero in the holidays and homo in the term.

hope u guys know that when i talk about the matrix i am not meaning it in an alt-right, conspiracy theorist, andrew t*te enjoyer way. i am meaning it in an i-genuinely-have-a-hyperfixation-on-this-movie, trans allegory, capitalism-is-destroying-the-world-and-we’re-being-forced-to-participate way

His 'merciful inclination and princely heart' meant he was always ready to 'take pity and compassion on all offenders repentantly crying'. In the case of his daughter, since she was, 'frail, inconstant and easy to be persuaded,' he would be glad to remit some of his displeasure.

why is isosano a rarepair i cry everyday

little less karmagisa, karushuu, etc etc (no hate to the popular ships, i just have specific tastes) more rarepair love pls

likeee,,,, THE PARALLELS BETWEEN ISOSANO IS SOOOO

like,,, ik gakushuu has karma but like thats for academics HOW BOUT THE SOCIAL & LEADERSHIP ASPECTS

grgrggrgrg GRAHHHH likee theyre opposites, opposites attract, and like?? it WOULD make sense for them to like be friends at least cuz like yuuma likes to see the best in others and SIR WOULD NOT SEE SHUU AS EVIL INCARNATE YK, sir would be "hi asano :D" with no hate whatsoever despite shuu literally trying to expel him before, and shuu will be like "what??" confused at how yuuma could be so nice despite all the shit he put e class through

ggrr the way they mirror each other, AAA

gakushuu asano, the rich son of the principal, he may act kind with the main campus students but the truth is he is cold-hearted with him mostly relying on himself and himself only, he is superior to his peers for he is always at the top

yuuma isogai, the poor son of a sick mother and older brother of two, he is genuinely kind, honest, and selfless, he allows himself to ask for help from others, he is equal to his peers, standing beside them rather than above

Is there any difference between the lords from before the masks and in the wakey wakey period?

similar ask

They're the same people. The Before Lords are the past human them that eventually died on the prince's 10th birthday along with everyone else. Thus leading into their time as the Masked Lords.

In Wakey Wakey, after some spritely interfering, the lords are freed from the ambassador's control and living in foundation containment, adjusting to modernity. Planning a way to save their home -- Which, despite the upset of not being Human again, will be possible given they merely have human forms, but are Not Normal Humans.

in the nb drama track, similar to the way sasara initially suggested a very strange name for their duo before settling on mcd lmao, kuukou said their team name should be ‘naughty monks’ before ichiro went ‘what the hell man’ lmao

shortly after the track dropped tho, fans brought up that if the words are meant to symbolise each other, then kuukou intended for ‘naughty’ represent ichiro, meaning busters is for himself, therefore ichiro’s buster(s) bros isn’t just a nb ref but he’s also carrying kuukou with him symbolically as well AND YOU WONT BELIEVE WHO BASICALLY CONFIRMED IT BY WRITING NAUGHTY IN RED AND BUSTERS IN PURPLE ON THEIR ICHIRO KITE—

twt stans are so brain dead when I said that they should think twice about considering what brands their idols should be an ambassador for,,,

ask yourself: why do u want ur fave to represent a brand whose owners hate east asians and made so many racist statements before AND have been openly homophobic in the past 3 years.

Title: Grief as a four-dimensional figure

Author: Moreta1848

Fandom: Star Trek: Alternate Original Series (Movies)

Rating: E - Explicit

Category: M/M (James T. Kirk/Spock)

Word Count: 52,978

Excerpt:

"One might arguably say it is not fully logical to care whether I cannot return to Vulcan because it no longer exists or because it is separated from me permanently in five-dimensional space.”

“No, I think I get it,” said Jim. “Like, I haven’t gone back to the old house in Iowa in years, but I do like knowing it’s there. If my mom sold it and it got knocked down, it would make a difference to me.”

The ambassador nodded. “Likewise, even in four-dimensional space, we are separated from the things we have lost only by distance—by the fact that we cannot easily travel along the timeline.” He marked out a section of his timeline, then a dot further back in the bottom timeline—Jim’s timeline. “My marriage is here. I am here, in a different timeline and at a different time. But my marriage exists. It is a figure in four-dimensional space which will continue to exist, in that sense, eternally. So long as the timeline does not collapse, it is a permanent part of history. So although I do not have my spouse with me, I know that he existed. That somewhere, in a time and a dimension I cannot go, we are meeting for the first time. That somewhere, I am asleep in his arms.”
