#House of TARA

[let-them-fight]

never forget your roots

[dreamsuvivor]

I just know that I’m not a superhero - saving the world no matter what - material bc when I watched Buffy getting kicked out of her own house after she sacrificed everything for these people, I would simply curse them out and then I would hop on a plane to Europe and let them die for all I care…

“Get out.” [Sam Golbach x Reader]

“Cause my love, is mine all mine”

WARNINGS: obsessive!samuel , JEALOUSY!!samuel , fluffy!samuel 🥰🥰

There was yet another party Sam and Colby had thrown, and this time it was for them reaching 10 million subscribers on YouTube. You’ve known these boys ever since they’ve started filming back on vine, and now that they’ve came along way you couldn’t help but be proud of them and how they’ve achieved it all on their own.

This party was small, but still there was at least twenty people in the apartment you three owned. You were talking to Tara and Kat (Kat— who is still good friends with Sam even after what happened), when all of a sudden a random stranger you’ve never met came up to you. You were confused as to who he was, but Jake came up from behind the guy and patted on his shoulder and you slowly placed the pieces together. “Well hello Jake, hello Jake’s friend.” You smiled both at the two.

Between the middle of the conversation the three of you were having, you felt very uncomfortable with this new person Jake brought. He kept making comments about how you looked, how gorgeous you were, how he’d ’tap that ass’ (of course Jake’ would step in and tell him to stop), and would try to get close to you as possible.

You jumped when you felt a hand on your shoulder from behind you. You looked to your right to see Sam, who was clearly glaring at the poor guy in front of him. “Hi guys,” Sam said with a chilling smile and taunting voice. Jake, who noticed, whispered to his buddy to try to calm down and stop with the jokes. “What’s up Sam!!��� The guy had yelled. You winced as looks came your way, suddenly the eyes around y’all have left. “Hey.” Sam said with a forcing smile.

“What are y’all talking about over here?” Sam asked. “Nothing really, but I was just about to ask sweet cheeks over here something.” The guy looked you up and down and you cringed, backing up into Sam to cover half of your body behind his. “And what would that be?” Sam spoke for you. He knew already you didn’t like this, and you could tell Sam was already on hinge with this guy. You could see his sharp jawline as he grit his teeth. “Wonder if she’d like to go home with me toni—” the guy could barely finish his sentence before Sam punched the guy in the nose.

Now all eyes were on you three. “Sam!” You could hear Colby yell from the other side of the apartment. “Sam!” Colby yelled again, yet Sam couldn’t hear a thing coming from anyone at the apartment. All he saw was red, up until he felt familiar rough hands on his shoulders. He looked back to see Colby with a confused face, and you with a frightened face. He looked down to see that the guy who was previously flirting with you was knocked out cold, and now noticing all eyes were on him.

He coughed. “Uh—” Sam started off. “Brother, you’re a menace!” Corey shouted from the balcony up above. Laughter could be heard through out the apartment, but all he was concerned was about you right now. He looked to where you were standing, but you were seen with Kat in a corner with tears streaming down your face. His heart ached. Kat looked over with a stern look, shaking her head as she comforted you. “Can we call off the party?” Sam whispered to his best friend. He nodded.

“Alright! Party’s over. Time to go home,” Colby yelled. Boo’s could be heard but nonetheless people respected and gathered their things to leave. On the other side of the apartment, he saw Tara giving you a hug and Katrina still talking to you. Everyone finally left, Jake having to carry his embarrassment of a friend out of the apartment.

It was just the four of you guys now. Sam, Colby, Katrina, and you. The boys didn’t mind that Katrina was still there, they knew she meant good intentions and they knew the two of you were extremely close. “I don’t know what got in him,” you whispered to her.

Kat sighed, knowing exactly what you meant. “That’s how he’s like.” She responded. “He gets jealous very easily, that I know of. That right there was definitely jealousy, and if Colby wasn’t here nobody would’ve been able to stop it. Trust me. The only one who can pull him out of what he’s seeing is the one he loves the most, besides Colby. I’ve had to do it myself before,” she mumbled.

“I know Sam likes you.” She said. Your eyes widened, and you looked at her with confusion. “He doesn’t—, I’ve been his best friend since literally when we were in high school, and plus I still think he loves you completely.” You told her. She sighed with a sad smile, “listen, I am glad things ended the way they did. Because I was not the one for him, and nor was he the one for me. Everyone can clearly see, our closest friends, Colby, that you two were made for each other. Look me in the eyes and tell me that you don’t love him.” You couldn’t do it. She was right.

Kat nodded. “Now, go get Sam and have a talk with him. Tell me how it goes, all the gossip and details girl. I need to know!” She kissed you on the cheek and waved goodbye to the boys, and then left.

It was now just you, Sam, and Colby. It was quiet. “I’ll start in the kitchen,” you barely spoke but they heard you. You started to clean up, but you could hear whispers from the living room. You rolled your eyes as you saw the two doing absolutely nothing except talking. “Are you guys gonna help or…?” You asked. The two nodded, Sam walking your way and Colby staying in the living room throwing trash into a black trash bag.

It was silent with you and Sam in the kitchen, the only noise being the sound of cans and plastic bottles and plates being moved around. “Can we talk?” Sam asked you, you stopped moving and your eyes widened. Was Katrina really telling you the truth?

“About?” You asked him. “About the incident… listen I’m sorry, I don’t know what came over me. I didn’t mean to make you scared or frightened, I was just… something snapped inside me and I didn’t like the way he talked to you.” You hummed. You noticed Colby silently walking up the stairs with a smile on his face, and you looked at him confusingly. He gave you a thumbs up, and then he vanished. “Listen… Princess,” he spoke.

He took a deep breath in, and exhaled. “I like you.” He told you. “Scratch that, I love you.” He spoke. “I lost my chance years ago when I had the moment to tell you, but then Katrina came into my life. At the end of our relationship, you knew it was rocky because of what I was feeling then with her, but believe me when I say this. It didn’t feel right with her. It didn’t set right with me. I still felt like there was a hole in my heart, and I finally noticed why. You are my one, I know you are my one.” He whispered, so dangerously close that he could hear your shaky breathing.

“Please say something Princess…” Sam whispered, his lips almost ever touching your earlobe. “I like you too.” You whispered back. He felt a wave of anxiety wash off of his body, he dropped half of his weight onto toy, dropping the stuff he was holding and wrapping his arms around your waist. You slowly placed your own arms on his. “Can I kiss you?” He asked. His eyes scanning your face.

You nodded.

Can I just say that you young folk are so lucky with recent media portrayals of lgbtq+ storyline.

I remember when all we had was this:

And this:

And then we got this:

And this:

Though of course neither of those ended well.

So also back to this:

But now! Now we have this:

And this:

And...this:

And then there's even this for younger viewers! Crazy times, people, crazy times.

And damn, just so much more. And it's glorious, even for an Ancient like me.

The effects of Darcy moving out - Heartstopper Season 3

While Darcy moving with their grandma is something that happens very early in season 3, it's the impacts of them moving out that does wonders.

Notice how as soon as Darcy has a loving and supportive environment they stop hiding their problems and begin to be their authentic self confidently without too many shits to give? Tara deserves her flowers for being an amazing girlfriend and letting Darcy live with her for a time before they settled, but as soon as Darcy settles, their personal issues go from being ignored to dealt with. If Darcy's mum was having a fit over them liking girls, I can't imagine it would've have gone well when they changed pronouns, transitioned to non-binary, changed presentation and cut their hair. It would've been fucking hell in that household.

But also let's talk about it. Grandma Darcy was fully supportive of all of those things. Hair, presentation, pronouns, gender and liking girls. I'd say that's a lot to take in, and yet she was there for their grandchild. The fact that they encouraged Darcy with the suit while their mother kicked them out speaks levels.

That confident version that Tara saw in Darcy is finally becoming a reality. They always had a support system with the Paris Squad, but now they live with an unconditional support system. Who knows how much and at what speed Darcy is gonna grow in that environment. 🍂

Here’s some lesser known sapphic tv shows that I recommend

Yellowjackets — only two canon lesbians and a gay man but in my opinion like half of them are lesbians, they get stranded in canada because of their plane crashing and eventually resort to cannibalism. Season three comes premiers on valentines day.

Teenage Bounty Hunters— one lesbian and one bisexual, they go to a religious school. Enemies to lovers, show ends on a cliffhanger

Bodkin— Irish journalist lesbian returns to Ireland because her boss sent her there due to complications involving a guy who killed himself, along with two other people to do a Podcast. The girl she kisses only has like 5 minutes of screen time and they don’t end up in a relationship. Hasn’t been cancelled or renewed for another season.

Buffy the Vampire Slayer— no lesbianism until season 4, this show is especially good if u love the whimsigoth aesthetic. Theres a really popular ship involving Buffy and Faith, unfortunately the writers didn’t make them canon. But there’s two canon witch lesbians.

Dare Me— so underrated, two canon lesbian cheerleaders. Very homoretic friendship, they kiss once. It’s like Jackieshauna but more toxic. There’s definitely some dark themes, unfortunately it was cancelled. But it’s still worth the watch in my opinion.

The Boys— this show is definitely really known, but most people don’t know that there is in fact a sapphic relationship in the show involving one of the main characters. Shes bisexual and her girlfriend or situationship is lesbian. They get a happy ending, at least so far. Theres another season coming so I can’t be sure.

The Fall of the House of Usher— a variety of queer characters, only two have canon sexualities. One of the main characters, Madeline Usher kisses a girl. She sees that girl everywhere as her brother’s kids start dying quickly. The only canon sexualities is her brother’s kid, shes a lesbian and has a wife. Definitely check out Mike Flanagan’s other shows, almost all have some sort of sapphic rep.

WLW Ships Poll Round 1 Part 1

Willow x Tara (L) Luz x Amity (R)

[amateurvamp]

[partiallithopseffect]

Some notes from the first episode of Dark Gallifrey:

Morbius was from an “unnamed House”

Morbius fought Rassilon’s successor, a President whose name is lost to time

Time Lords destroyed civilisations by dropping shards of their own future on them from orbit

Old Gallifreyans travelled through the Vortex in wooden ships manned by hundreds of people

These ships could twist and morph during travel, crushing crew below decks

Earth crows were once creatures of the Vortex. They settled on many different worlds during Morbius’ War

Time Lords could bestow regenerations on Outsider Gallifreyans as medals of honour. They said those regenerations could give one an extra heart…

Ukraine Rally DC has been showing up to protest for Ukraine for 913 days. On Ukraine's Independence Day, they and those that joined their team made their presence known. Together, they rallied at Lafayette Park, in front of the White House, and marched down to the Taras Shevchenko monument.

As always, they remind everyone in the US to "keep calling your members of Congress and keep advocating for Ukraine."
