#Even if they cringey

[andromeda3116]

one thing that i've noticed and begun to seriously appreciate upon rereading the watch novels is --

sam and sybil are not in love when they get married.

they like each other, but they aren't in love. and i think this is why sybil seems to be kind of in the background of men at arms and feet of clay, like, sure, she's his wife and he appreciates her and cares for her but he doesn't love her -- yet.

and i think it's the knitting moment at the end of jingo when it happens to him. like that john green quote about how you fall in love slowly and then all at once? i think the moment when he comes home and she's been trying to knit him socks but she's no good at knitting and so it ends up being a scarf instead of socks -- i think that's the "all at once".

and then after jingo, suddenly sybil matters more to him, appears more in his thoughts, he's so proud of her in the fifth elephant for everything she does (she is such a badass in the fifth elephant), and it's the cigar case she gave him that is what he longs for amd desperately needs to hold onto in night watch, the memory of her. she's much more important to him and his perspective in the later watch books, and yes the doylist interpretation is that sir terry developed the relationship more as he grew as a writer because he didn't feel like he was very good at writing romance, but i like the watsonian interpretation --

that sam vimes was not in love with sybil ramkin when he married her, but instead fell madly in love with her along the way.

do the silly thing. if you do not do the silly thing time will pass and it will not be the same silly thing it could have been. it will still be silly, and it will still be yours, but it will not be the same. this is both a blessing and a curse, but so is living; and if you do not do it now when will you? who will? it has to be you, it was always meant for you, waiting for you.

It is perfectly normal to have paranoia dreams about physical boundaries. Stop looking at your asexual flag it doesn't mean anything

The reason why I adore ALL tddk but why I especially find Shouto x Quirkless!Izuku so compelling is that. they're just-

Izuku with the hard-won victories and the barely-hidden Ambition that thrums in his veins. And Shouto who know the price of ambition but also knows exactly what it means when Izuku discards it in favour of helping him. Izuku- who was never really saved, who still prays, hopes, wishes and never actually expects anyone to show up, who sends the text in Hosu like it's a silly little ritual he has to complete. And Shouto who ditches everything and everyone and comes running. You came//You called. Izuku who smiles politely and Shouto who calls the chief of police a Mangy Mutt. Izuku who was raised on Full Internet Access and Shouto who had just discovered Memes and is unreasonably delighted about it.

and. they're just. A boy who is bluntly, tragically honest and another who is made of white lies. A boy with the power of god at his fingertips and a boy with nothing but his raised fists. A masterpiece and a defect. A boy in chains and a boy with all the freedom that a very tall building provides.

oh and they're both awkward, blushing messes. they're idiots. they're bestfriends. they're late-night arguments over Conspiracy Theories. They are so intense and unintentionally hilarious. They're sun-and-moon coded. They're deep-seated abandonment issues and a difficulty in letting anything go. They're hands, hands, hands. They're two pieces of rubble whose jagged edges fit. They're bury my feet in cement cause I'm never leaving you. They're I'm sorry I didn't know you when we were kids. I would have iced the bruises on your back. They ARE SOULMATES-

My personal take on redacted characters sexualities and stuff.

1) Listener genders are all up to the viewer’s interpretation! People need to stop getting pissy at other for having fem listeners, though. I’ve seen it a lot of this and it’s lowkey annoying.

2) Some speakers, for example, Sam, go by He/Him (as of canon, excluding headcanons) pronouns while having been in a relationship with a woman. Alexis. This does. Not mean that your Sam interpretation has to be attracted to women. For example, my Sam interpretation is a southern African American GAY transman who aligns with MLM and or NWLNW. His thing with Alexis was just him being younger, naive, and having fun.

3) Some speakers, for example, Geordi, go by He/Him (as of canon, excluding headcanon) pronouns while having been in a relationship with a man. Ben. Personally, my HC for Geordi is a pansexual man who uses He/They.

4) No listeners have canon pronouns, sexualities, personal information that regard to their own identity and orientation. Again, up to your interpretation.

5) Some listeners have been in relationships with men. example, Darlin’ and Angel. (Quinn, Micheal, and other unnamed Exes of Angels.) NO canon pronouns while having been in a relationship with a man.

6) No listeners, as of my knowledge, have been in a relationship with a woman. I feel as if this would never be canon because it may change the viewers interpretation of the listeners identity. The reason why they may have male exes is because their partners, the speaker, are already men. Which means that all of the listeners are canonically attracted to men at LEAST. (As of canon, excluding headcanons) They can be bisexual, pan, Omni, queer, etc etc. nobody is stopping you from what you want.

7) There are some characters, speakers, who use He/Him (canonically, excluding headcanons), who are in relations, attracted to men, implied to have been with men, or have been in relations with men. Example; Gavin, Guy, Huxley, etc.

I can get into the imperium and how it may reflect on canon… but this post is long enough. Maybe later

Thanks for coming to my TedTalk.

Y'know what, sure. I'll keep sharing my silly snaps here because I'm almost always gonna be using avatars of my faves in VR.

I was relearning my way around the camera function now that I have a headset, so I was trying to go for more interesting angles and poses. As you can see, I'm still figuring it out.

It's also because I have to hit the timed-shot button and then haste back to the pose I wanted to keep (like there's no shortcut for that?).

Fuck it, I’ve earned this and it’ll hopefully be buried anyway. Supportive Expectant Papa Mario.

I’m very passionate about Mario just being THE most attentive and supportive partner during the whole ordeal, from the first bouts of morning sickness to long, late nights with a fussy baby. The particular scenario I’m fixated on right now, however:

Peach is in labor. She’s been in relatively light spirits up until recently, chatting and laughing between contractions, but suddenly she’s just… not responding. The pain is getting to her, and she barely even registers Mario’s presence beyond squeezing his hand or relaxing into his touch whenever he wipes her face with a cold cloth. And frankly, he’s kinda terrified. Surely she’s about to pass out.

Maybe he worriedly reports to a nurse, or maybe he tries getting her attention and is stopped, but one way or another, an attending nurse encourages him to leave her alone; she’s focusing. If she’s receptive to the care he’s presently giving her, great, but beyond that, it’s best not to break her concentration.

Something about that just amazes him. He looks back at her and he can see it now, the crease in her brow that suggests she’s actively engaging herself and not just mindlessly reacting to pain, the way she actually steels herself moments before she crushes his hand again, her efforts to steady her breathing and expend as little energy as possible. And he’s just in total awe. Does she even realize she’s doing it? Whether she does or not, going into a state of concentration while in increasingly intense pain can’t be easy, yet here she is, doing exactly that.

His wife’s a badass.

it’s not a coincidence that season four, the season where debbie hits puberty, is the season where the fandom starts to gang up on her.

My children are so stupid and I love them. The fact Right uses nicknames that are indeed Just Like That makes it even harder to differentiate which one needs to be eliminated. (Brent is pretty sure it's his head on the chopping block.)

If Nina and I were given a basic hallmark movie script and even a totally average-to-decent budget and, most importantly, entire creative control to change anything we wanted—you would not BELIEVE the masterpiece we could create.

she's gotten the y/n experience because he doesn't even post his girlfriend

[gregorovitch-adler]

John not being there in part 1 of The Three Gables makes me sad. :(

I know he needs time to grieve for Mary, but still. I miss him a lot.

That being said, I don't mind Mariana being the narrator this time. I love her voice too.

And I like the fact that Mariana and Sherlock are getting some alone time together (after loads of episodes of Mariana - John's alone time and John - Sherlock's alone time). Quite intriguing.

I'm sorry <3

[gideonisms]

look as someone who has read 4 acts of homestuck + a plot summary of the rest + some fic, gideon is not thinly veiled dave strider they're simply not the same character. "Ianthe is vriska" yeah well ianthe is also nanami from utena but no one's talking about that !!
