For the record, I do not consider unfollowing to be friendship-ending. You can unfollow me if you want. My posts are not for everyone, and I refuse to tag except for my own organizational purposes, so if you want to unfollow while I'm on a politics / star wars / 90 day fiance kick, more power to you 🫡

So I’ve already seen some criticism of Helaena appearing in Daemon’s visions, all “why is she helping the guy that murdered her son?” And while I can understand that criticism, that’s not how I read the scene, and I think it actually reveals a lot more to us about Helaena as a character and how her dreams have affected her life.

Because, while Alys and Helaena did show Daemon a vision of Daenerys, they neglected to mention one teeny tiny barely important little detail. When the dead arrive, their ruler is slain by a Stark while a Lannister sits the Iron Throne. Then, the final male Targaryen kills the final female Targaryen, her dragon burns the Iron Throne, and he goes Beyond the Wall, probably never to have children. In short, Aegon’s Dream is all for nothing.

Presuming that Helaena can see everything the way that this episode implies, she is fully aware of this. And yet, Daemon still needs to play his part. All of their parts are inevitable, everything has always occurred exactly the way that it will. She tells Aemond point-blank that even if he kills her, he will still die in God’s Eye and Aegon will still outlive him. So Blood & Cheese or no, Daemon’s line will still inherit the Iron Throne, and he will still kill Aemond. But in order to do those things, his part involves accepting Aegon’s Dream to be (somewhat) true and standing behind Rhaenyra for good. Helaena is here to help shuffle that along.

I also think that this lends a new weight to her words in 2x03: “I’m sad about Jaehaerys. But I don’t think I should be.”

I’m sad about my son’s death, but I don’t think I should be because I saw this happen over and over in my dreams. Because I know that in the grand scheme of the Song of Ice and Fire, in the story of Westeros and all the lands beyond, he had a minuscule role to play. Because it’s all a story and he was only ever meant to be a minor tragedy in that story. Because I’ve known all of this since I was born, but I’m still human, I’m not just a prophetess or a visionary or a dreamer, I’m still human and I’m still a mother and I’m still sad about my son’s death.

Today is a day to be slow.

Let the to-do list go.

Listen to your body, your mind.

Rest.

I’ve been having an absolutely banging month. I’m on schedule for my final year submission. I got shortlisted for a nationwide design competition and everyone has been gassing me up ever since. Nothing but praise on all my work, no notes. Then I started getting into climbing and the instructor was baffled by how fast I learned the knots and how I could already climb F6 in the second session. Then I started indoor bouldering and everyone I talk to is blown away that I’ve only just started climbing. It’s like I’m on an IV drip of serotonin. This is what absolute monarchs must have felt like

QUICK TELL ME UR HCS OF UR IKEMEN PETS

aaaaa okay, let me think!! I'll just give what come to me off the top of my head with these lads :3

Charles (ikevamp)

Charles is actually quite good at styling, makeup, and hair cutting/styling

this is partially based on a little headcanon list that Auburn made a while ago, but he has a little bit of pudge on him, specifically around his hips!

Faust (ikevamp)

Faust has shockingly warm hands, and also a lot rougher skin than you'd expect. he has a lot of calluses on his palms and fingers

he will literally sleep the entire day if you let him. but since he's (canonically) horrifically difficult to wake up... this has happened more than once.

Will (ikevamp)

he does actually learn how to cook! he still prefers to go out to eat most of the time, but once in a while, he does actually enjoy a home-cooked meal

Sariel (ikepri)

there have been times he's fallen asleep in his glasses. and other times, that he's almost forgotten to put his glasses on before getting up to work (though he hasn't completely forgotten yet)

he is one of the fastest readers in the palace, along with Chevalier and Clavis

kind Keith (ikepri)

he used to pick at his cuticles when he was younger

dark Keith (ikepri)

he prefers lighter colours over darker colours

if he was able to, he would love to dress in a more relaxed style (unfortunately, that would not only confuse the people around them, but it may lead to even more criticism from those who already dislike him/them)

My body fails me in many ways but at least I can Slav squat

Im currently hatching a master plan to manipulate my family into cleaning the basement as a response to the stress of losing my space in the house but also because it would be cool

[hiswrlds]

Btw I never walk into ur blog assuming a certain dynamic, rp is all abt being flexible & doing things canon/fanfiction couldn't do as media where u write on ur own or stick to a storyline that's objectively well written & balanced out for a good narrative, I'm not here for good narratives that's offcial writers' job I'm here to have fun with all sorts of interactions of all kinds . That comes to say I always want the dynamics i establish with our muses to be unique & distinguished with every version of the character I write with . sometimes I'll see them as siblings, sometimes I'll see it romantically, sometimes they're sworn enemies with a url & twins with the other, there is NOTHING strictly written out especially with a franchise like sonic & a rpc community where every canon character has so many unique & beautiful variants with their own stories to tell !!

This ofc doesn't apply to like, aged up muses or any siblings which are clearly not up to debate like Sonic & Tails, we all know what I'm talking abt here

I stg if I see one more person say that bareback is the most ethical form of riding I'm going to rip my hair out

[lqb2quotes]

It's important to have boundaries in life, but sometimes you may feel guilty for enforcing them. Aren't I supposed to be generous? Am I unkind if I say no to this? The question isn't whether to be flexible or firm, but when to be each one. A good life has a healthy mix of selfish boundaries and unselfish giving. You don't have to be all things at all times. Sometimes you pour for others and sometimes you refill your own cup. What does this moment call for?

[notasapleasure]

Keep seeing that super American-worded poll about 'when did you move to this country' and thinking about reblogging with tags like......technically I didn't move countries. Technically I also did. Technically my family has been here for many generations. But they were also over there when over there was here and when that wasn't a border, and then again over there when it was. Some of them came from the same country but before that fled another one that was one thing then and isn't now. What do you mean 'country' what do you mean 'move'? We've always been children of the border in this family.

[pajulammas]

how many chapters of chivalrous devotion will there be?

Many-

I don't know the exact amount yet, because even though I have the story planned out, I'll still have to check how many chapters it'll be eventually – especially when Chivalrous Devotion chapters are around 7k words long (my usual chapters are usually around 4-6k).

So I don't yet know the exact number, but it'll be a LONG fic-

Showed my dad (who also has some hyper mobile joints) how far my fingers and elbows bend and he said it's "weird" and "freaky" and "making him uncomfortable".
