#I am the the physical embodiment of the meme

[mawrblaidddrwg]

I have not been able to get this out of my mind since I saw this post a few weeks ago. When @thisisnotawendys suggested the ~brilliant~ idea of Milo Ventimiglia as live action Vegeta. So naturally I had to stay up way past my bedtime to make a silly little sketch of this. I have gone back and forth about, I don’t know, a billion times over the years about who my dream IRL Vegeta would be. And honestly Milo is *chef’s kiss* (I mean we’ve got the versatility of Bad Boy Jess and Daddy Jack Pearson so again, perfect for Vegeta). I’ve tried to draw a realistic Vegeta many times before (in sketchbooks in high school a hundred years ago) but this is my first recent attempt and the same struggle I had in high school is how the effff do I make a realistic Vegeta with that wild flame hair. So I made 2 versions, one with slightly more realistic looking hair, and one with good ol’ Vegeets hair. The profile looks more like Tom Hiddleston for some reason but honestly I’m okay with that too (I’ve thought about him as Vegeta many times too, so maybe it was unconsciously done). *continues rambling on in the distance forever*

I believe that the leaders of the Spice Swarm (Cilantro Cobra, Saffron Buffalo, Pepper Pangolin and Nutmeg Tiger) are all touch starved but in different ways.

Cilantro Cobra cookie wants to be treated like a princess and is completely unapologetic about it. She's just a girl, your honour, she is innocent on all charges. Y/N's schedule needs to be cleared, since nothing can get done if Cilantro Cobra cookie gets her way.

Saffron Buffalo cookie, on the other hand wants to hold Y/N and be complemented. He will be so smug about it like he wasn't actively fishing for compliments the entire time. He might not have gotten praise and glory from his master but Y/N's is probably better anyways.

Pepper Pangolin cookie is the living embodiment of the whole "affection? Disgusting. Do it again." Meme. He will refuse to ask Y/N for physical affection, at best they get a vague hint that he wants to hold hands and even then he will be tsundere about it.

Nutmeg Tiger cookie is just a very big cat. She will demand that Y/N pet her at 3 am and follow them around the house.

Saffron Buffalo did make it of note that he wanted to bring in Golden Cheese to gain Spice’s favor, so I can see him being all proud and alike that he’s managed to…hold your hand. A sacred act between close cookies that’s above any gesture of affection.

Pepper Pangolin Cookie swear to the moon and back that he does not enjoy the attention that you give him, he’s just…really bored without company around and he’ll only accept your company! Don’t try any of that teasing stuff or he’s hissing at you before turning away with a pout.

You better have not gotten close with any cookies before you returned to the castle. Nutmeg Tiger Cookie WILL smell the scent of weak cookies on you, scoffing on how you were completely willing to be around them. You’ll need a refresher on your scent and she’ll fix that for you, dragging you to the bed by your shirt collar to cuddle.

Solar Return Chart: Asteroid observations

Asteroids used:

Starr (4150)

Singer (10698)

Tone (1266)

Fama (408)

Talent (33154)

Actor (12238)

Lumerie (775)

Fan (151590)

Industria (389)

Universitas (905)

Sagittarius Starr in the 1st house 7°:

Stardom is a stronger placement than Fama in my opinion. You could always experience fame at some point in your life (being a meme, having a video go viral, etc) but it's nowhere near the level of stardom. This placement specifically shows how I will stand out in comparison to others. Sagittarius is well known for being philosophical, optimistic, and honest. People could appreciate or admire these characteristics that I have. Starr being in the 1st house could mean being popular for taking on the role of a leader and not being a follower. 1st house also pertains to the physical appearance as well as 7° (Libra degree), so I could be seen as having attractive attributes. I also interpert this as my personality being considered humorous and that I will be fair to others

Sagittarius Singer in the 1st house 7.59 (could be rounded to 8)°:

Sagittarius is so prominent in my Solar return chart it seems?! I see this as being a singer who's versatile and carefree. As much as I enjoy singing, I am not professionally trained, nor would I consider myself a technical singer. I see this as actually putting in the effort to practice and gaining wisdom from other singers techniques. This could also mean to sing various musical genres or blending different cultures into the songs I sing. This could mean singing in a foreign language as well. 1st house means to be discovered quite fast and be acknowledged by others for being a singer. 7°/8° (Libra and Scorpio degree) people could consider my voice as pretty and transformative. I coild possibly collaborate with other artists, and be involved with a lot of business matters (marketing my music, signing contracts, etc).

Pisces Tone in the 4th house 28°:

What a watery aspect to have JEEZ 😂! Tone pertains to how someone's voice sounds, so my speech could be softer in general this year or I will have a duality to my speaking voice. Being able to play around with different notes or feeling comfortable singing low or high notes. 4th house and 28° both embody Cancer energy. My voice could be regarded as feminine, soft, and gentle. It could also be obvious by my tone what emotions I feel (angry, sad, happy, etc) and having a harder time masking that. There will overall be a sincerity expressed in how I talk.

Capricorn Fama in the 2nd house 18°:

Capricorn Fama is a interesting placement considering it feels neutral here. I see this as having knowledge and means for me to become a celebrity. As a child, I remember I used to watch Yogi Bear on Boomerang and he would always say that he was "Smarter than the average bear" when that wasn't actually true, Boo Boo was a cub and much smarter than his elder. It could be possible I meet celebrities who are well seasoned and think they could steal my "picnic basket" so to speak. They could think they're better than me and would try to convince me to take opportunities from others to get ahead, when that's not how I roll. This placement requires me to be wise when it comes to having fame. I interpert the 2nd house as if I work hard and focus on my goals, I should be able to succeed financially. 18° (Virgo Degree) I believe means there will have to be a balance of health and work. Being famous for health or humanitarian matters is also a factor.

Scorpio Talent in the 12th house 17°:

The talent asteroid is comfortable with the 17° (Leo degree). It represents long term fame and being well known for your talents. This placement represents me very well when it comes to my talents. I am someone who is quite shy and being in the spotlight can be nervewracking for me. I am able to do a lot of things from drawing, singing, etc, but I am not very public about my talents or skills because it draws too much attention. Scorpio is very private, they are known for hiding anything personal about themselves and typically are considered mysterious to others. The 12th house could also mean hidden talents coming to the surface. I see this as slowly coming out of the shadows and allowing my talents to speak for themselves. It reminds me of indie artists when they start gaining popularity and people have discussions as in "Have you heard of this person?" or "Do you know about xyz?". My talents could be spiritually guided or there will be inspiration that comes from my subconscious thoughts. It is possible I will receive signs or premonitions within my dreams. People could ask what is the meaning or how did I become so talented at something but my geniune response would be "I don't know where it came from it just came to me honestly?". I see this as being humble regarding talents and not being someone who brags. This is a comfortable placement for fame and I see this as being known for having a good reputation. My talents could pertain to psychology, the occult, divination, and the arts.

Leo Actor in the 9th house 5°:

I see that I would be successful if I were to start an acting career! There could be a lot of potential for my acting skills and I would have to take lessons to improve them (9th house often being considered the house of travel, knowledge, and education). This could also mean I will be casted for roles because of my race or cultural background. It is possible it would be required for me to travel for my acting career or I would have to speak in a foreign language. 5° degree is the Leo degree and it also signifies short term fame, going viral, or being famous for your beauty. So this could mean getting casted for advertisements, commercials, and passing modeling auditions. Either way, I will gain prominence in the acting industry because of my charm, charisma, and appearance (I.E: Being selected for roles solely because of my looks).

Leo Lumiere in the 9th house 29°:

This asteroid is specific to film and photography, astrologers interpert this as what roles an actor specializes in. I see the Leo energy for this asteroid as being casted for glamorous and lavish roles or being casted to play a character that's brave or having "main character" energy. As in films that have a coming of age story. I see that I could be casted for roles internationally or will have to film in places out of the country. 29° is a big indication of long term fame but since it is a karmic degree, it could possibly mean having to play in roles that are controversial or challenges what society views as the standard.

Aquarius Fan in the 3rd house 18°:

I could gain fans/followers for shared interests and values. There will be discussions surrounding activism and social causes. People could admire my individuality and ability to be a free thinker. My fans will be mostly on social media platforms and could see them being interested in what I think or have to say. This could mean gaining attention from videos, podcasts, blog posts, or any thing that is a form of written/verbal communication. I could form connections with students from my school as well. 18° (Virgo degree) pertains to health, analytics, and human services.

Gemini Industria in the 7th house 14°:

I am a Communication major and this is a significant placement for me since it pertains to jobs in that career field. It is likely I will be able to work in jobs that pertain to communication such as journalism, podcasts, social media influencer, and so on. The 7th House and 14° degree entails Venusian energy (The 7th house representing Libra and 14° is a Taurus degree). This could mean I could work in the beauty, music, banking/investment, & design industry. I could see myself working in jobs related to beauty advertisement, investing in stocks for companies, and working as a intern for a art gallery/fashion magazine. I also see this a positive indication for singing and modeling. This placement feels very luxurious to me and reminds me of "The Devil Wears Prada". Andy was a college graduate and aspiring journalist who ended up working at a fashion magazine. Could symbolize working in a industry that's Glamorous but also requires communication skills, diplomatic behavior, and great determination.

Aquarius Universitas in the 3rd house 17°:

I associate Aquarius with science and technology. My experience for university this could mostly focus on subjects related to this topic. Interesting enough, for this winter quarter I have 3 classes that are all focused on science (global climate, flower science, & the application of computers in technology). 3rd house has to do with communication, intrapersonal thoughts, and social activities. It is possibly I could make friends through my classes. I am likely to participate in more extracurricular activities or school events this year. 17° (Leo Degree), I see this being considered a "picture perfect student". My mother has spoken with one of my academic advisors recently and they have stated that they were impressed with my diligence when it comes to completing coursework. I might be included in one of the photographs for my university's newspaper or social media platforms.

Requests are open for texts and writing for nct dream, txt, and a few more.

{this one is quite long bc of the bullet point format so I added the "keep reading"on this post!}

soobin

He shows his love in such sweet and subtle ways.

One of these affectionate things he does (that I personally love) is him gaining interest in your hobbies.

He will sit there and watch you do whatever you do with literal heats in his eyes.

Please help, his pupils are actually changing shape. Jkjk.

Anyways, he always asks you questions about your hobbies and will even try them.

also, he likes to be taken care of in a relationship so he shows his love by looking at you with the upmost adoration when you're leading him somewhere, for example

he gives you this lovestruck eyes when you're pulling on his arm through the mall

he loves when you order for him when you go out to eat

you and him are literally the meme where the girl goes up the counter and says "he said no pickles >:(" and he's just standing behind you with a little smirk on his face

yeonjun

He shows his love through providing for you.

He's overall is the embodiment of the word ‘gentleman’.

He always opens the door for you when entering the car.

He holds your hand tight when you two are rushing through the train stations during rush hour.

He also always pays for EVERYTHING.

He gets irked when you try to pull out your card/cash to play for anything. He frowns and gently moves you to the side and he pays.

Afterwards, he sits you down and tells you that he wants to pay and that you should let him because he loves you so so much.

Let him because he will literally cry if you don’t let him pay.   

beomgyu

he's just a little silly guy so he show his affection through lots of physical contact and time together.

I say this later on for huening kai but he looooves hanging on you!

he’s like a little monkey

he just likes when you pretend to be annoyed because it makes him feel accomplished (he’s so annoying but I love it 😬)

Also like, calls you at 2 am

“baby I’m outside your apartment please come down”

“Beomgyu where are we going? It’s 2 am?”

“First of all, WHO is Beomgyu? Second of all, we’re going on a walk and there will possibly be snacks if you cooperate”

taehyun

He shows his love by looking after you very closely.

He leaves you daily reminders to take your vitamins, charge your phone/laptop, eat or drink something, etc… he wants to make sure you’re healthy and prepared for the day ahead of you.

He also always makes sure you’re not missing things.

One particular thing he does is restocking your pantry and fridge and also other personal care items.

If he notices you’re running out of your favorite drink, favorite snack, pads/tampons, etc, he will stop at the store to get them for you before heading to your apartment.

He also likes to have sit downs with you at least once a week and talking to you about your week.

He buys fancy masks and your favorite drinks so you two have spend a few hours de-stressing with each other.

heuning kai

He is very into physical affection so he shows his love by hanging on you in public.

Once he get the green light from you, he practically begs his company to let you both go public with your relationship so he can hug you and kiss you in public.

He loves coming up from behind you while you’re waiting for your coffee orders and wrapping his arms around your shoulders. He presses a kiss to the top of your head and tells you he love you sooooo so much.

He also shows his affection through gifts.

Surprise gifts at that.

He loves catching you off guard with anything from stationary to a new designer bag.

He’s a great gift giver because he pays close attention to the things you love.

I've come to the realization that if I don't pull myself together and become the driving force behind a Saved the Public Enemy by Mistake fandom on here (or anywhere, really) - no one will! and so here I am. and here is why you should read it!

What is it? Original manhua, no novel or adaptations

Genre: historical fantasy, xuanhuan/xianxia

Status: Ongoing, 110 episodes/? - currently on temporary hiatus, weekly updates will resume July 22!

It's free to read on the bilibili app!

What's it about?

Here's the summary from bilibili: The peaceful life of Lu Jiu is brought to an end when a teenage cultivator turns up before his medical hall, badly injured. The young physician saves the boy, not knowing that he's Liu Jianghe, a notorious man whom many want dead. Is it too late to kill him now?

I might do it even if no one asks, bc I love this manhua and I want to talk about it more.

If there are fans on here, please interact in some way! I need more Saved the Public Enemy content and enjoyment on my dash and in my life.

Aldhelm Character Analysis (and why I love him so much)

The following is a character study and my own opinions. I meant to post something like this several months ago when I started this blog, but I had so much other stuff going on I forgot about this in my drafts, so I am posting it now. I know there will be people who disagree with me, and others who maybe think I am being ridiculous or whatever, but I don't care. This is my blog and I want to share this because it is meaningful to me, and maybe perhaps it will resonate with someone. This is a kind of "about me" but mostly a rambling mess.

Aldhelm means so much to me, more than any other character in any other show or movie I have watched. I have fallen super hard for this man; he has bewitched me body and soul, and just imbedded himself into the core of my being. He is my muse, and has profoundly permeated every creative aspect of myself, from creating this blog, screencaps/edits, gifs, memes, artwork, poetry (don't ask), and fanfics. No one else has managed to do that to me. This show in general, and him specifically, have led me deep into this fandom and made me do things that I have never done before.

My attraction to him goes far beyond just him being a pretty face; my feelings for him are complex and multi-faceted. Of course I think he is exceptionally handsome, and I find everything about him attractive. But I was attracted to his personality long before I was attracted to him physically. The two go hand in hand, and it takes more than just being a hot dude to hold my attention. This show is loaded to the brim with attractive people and yet he is the only one that has captivated me.

I love him for so many reasons. To me he is absolute perfection and I would not change a single thing about his character. He is introverted, quiet, soft-spoken, and dignified. He is highly intelligent, has a calm confident demeanor, and has a great fortitude for dealing with difficult situations. He is elegant and refined, despite sometimes coming off as awkward. I love his quick wit and dry sarcastic sense of humor. I melt whenever he rolls his eyes or sighs with exasperation. He is so pure and wholesome, and loves with his whole entire being. His selfless and unwavering devotion and loyalty to both Mercia and Aethelflaed are unmatched. He sets aside his own needs and desires to serve others, ultimately to his detriment. (He deserved better in so many ways) He has many personality traits that are normally only seen in women characters, while still being very much masculine, and I find that dichotomy incredibly appealing.

Additionally, something about him triggers my nurturing instinct; I want to hold him in my arms and cuddle him for all eternity. He is so unbelievably sweet and gentle, and the way he was so soft around Aethelflaed just melted my heart. In fact. he embodies my idea of a perfect romantic partner. He is so calm, patient, understanding, eager to help out, very devoted and loyal, cares more about his partner's happiness than his own. I feel as a boyfriend or husband he would be very attentive and in tune to his partner's needs. Never arguing, or trying to avoid it as much as possible. Never raising his voice. He would go out of his way to do nice things for them just to make them happy. Acts of service, gift giving, quality time, and humor are his love languages.

But more than that, I see in him a reflection of myself, that I have not seen in any other character or real-life person, ever.

His quiet, contemplative, introverted nature, and preference for solitude matches my own. He is very Byronic/Jane Austen coded, with that brooding moody energy. Like me, he is the kind of person who dislikes bars, parties, or large gatherings of people, and prefers to keep to himself. He comes off as cold and calculating, but inside he is anything but. He is overwhelmed with emotion and allows himself to love wholly and intensely, despite not having his feelings reciprocated. Despite doing his best to hide his feelings, he actually wears his heart on his sleeve and allows others to use him just for the sake of feeling needed. He allows himself to cry, although he does so in private, not because he is ashamed, but because he wants to appear strong for others. He is the kind of person that hides the deeper parts of himself well from others, but I know that if you really got to bond with him, he would show you another side of himself, one that smiles freely and loves openly, laughs and jokes, and allows himself to be comfortable in the presence of others.

He appears to me to be demi/ace coded. I don't know if that was intentional or not, but seeing ace representation on the screen is incredibly rare and refreshing. Especially since his sexuality, or lack thereof, is never really brought up or ridiculed by the other characters (as ace-presenting people so often are in media). As someone who is demi/ace myself, I find his characterization in this way very comforting, especially since I have been ridiculed and downcast over my asexuality. I also find it delightful to see a male character who is not constantly talking about getting laid, making sex jokes, or aggressively pursuing or objectifying women. Much the opposite; he treats Aethelflaed with a level of respect and admiration that women are not often given by men. In fact he treats women in general with a lot of respect.

I feel his pain when he is ignored or his words are brushed off by others time and time again. As someone who has felt simultaneously invisible and freakishly "other" her whole life, I can identify with that strongly. I am always the one who others talk over or ignore in social settings. I have always felt like an outcast, even among my friends and peers. I never feel like I truly belong anywhere or with anyone, and have always felt like an outsider, just drifting along the perimeters of multiple social circles without ever fitting in. It is such a horrible feeling, and I empathize with him when I see him go through the exact same treatment.

I also feel his sense of uniqueness in that, like me, he is neither a leader nor a follower, but marches to the beat of his own drum. He had no desire to be Lord of Mercia even when it was offered to him (which I personally think was a mistake on his part). But I get it; I hate being in charge. I prefer to work behind the scenes and stay out of the spotlight myself. But while I am not a leader, neither am I a follower. I am always doing my own thing regardless of trendiness or popularity.

The biggest difference between him and I is that he is far more patient than I could ever be! He is much more level headed, whereas I tend to be more emotional and have a kind of firecracker reaction, especially when I am in an argument or when something upsets me. I think I would be a better person if I could learn to remain calm and collected during emotionally stressful times.

So, this is much more than me thinking the dude is super hot. And it also goes so far beyond me just thinking he is a cool and interesting character (which he is no doubt). He has actually become a permanent part of me, one that will not be replaced by the next hot thing to cross my screen. Even if I run out of things to post here (which will happen at some point), he will still occupy my thoughts, and I will still be drawing him, and writing for his character for a very long time to come.

[zorua-adorable]

CANNOT believe that Solm gave us both a wolf guy and a wolf girl.

Love them both.

Like, these two are both the embodiment of that “on all levels except physical, I am a wolf” meme, just in different ways. Here, like this:

[witchofthesouls]

You know what trope I love, the whole ‘eldritch horror/aspects of nature in physical form in human form’ specifically with death. Death the endless from the Sandman is my favorite character due to how refreshing it is to not see a natural part of nature not be demonized.

Imagine a physical manifestation/embodiment of death in the transformers universe. They are so old, older than the gods that preoccupy the universe they share and has reaped many. Death ingrains themselves into every species, sharing with their love and their lust of life, for self enjoyment and to sympathize with the souls they will one day charter. Every soul, no matter what age or species, recognizes them.

Than the Great War of Cybertron breaks out. Death knew war was bound to happen to its petty societal class systems, but never imagined it would directly cause the death of Primus. They can still remember the sadness on his face when he took their hand to be carried to his fate. The death count grew higher and higher, and death did as they have always done since the beginning, with some faint glimmer of hope that they would see what they had done now that their god is dead. Death never took pleasure in the brutality and savagery of war nor in the fear and anger and sorrow in it.

Now, it’s once expansive population was reduced to a scathing thousands. Now Death faces their own crisis. Reap all cybertronians who are the one causes of their extinction or interfere and give them a second chance?

Death’s mind is made up when they take the form a young human girl, making it easier to get close to the so called ‘Autobots’, to see for themselves if they and the ‘Decepticons’ are worthy of a second chance.

Plus, they missed human food. Especially, ice cream.

(If the bots do discovered their/her identity and they ask why Death would help. They/she would simply smile, a bit of ice cream on the corner of their lips. “I am death. I am inevitable. What’s a little while longer?” Was all they/she said as she ate another spoonful of ice cream.)

Okay, commentary because this tickled my brain so much like Woah and I do have things along those lines.

And same here, anon, but more like Aspects that take on a humanoid/mortal form or have Avatars to take on very specific Aspects because such entities are far too immense for a true physical embodiment.

But that's a different topic, so the embodiment of Death in Transformers does exist, depending on the universe and how viewers want to take it.

The most explicitly direct is Mortilus of the Guiding Hand from the 2005 IDW, and then there's Unicron himself -Lord of Chaos, Chaos Bringer, and Planet Eater.

Primus and Unicron are stated to be brother-twin entities. Opposites, yet equals.

His self-proclaimed mission is to end all creation, which is very ironic considering he is a being of Chaos. The spark of that brings forth Life. Unless that's the point. He is the Bringer -the harbinger of Chaos, so he is the embodiment of Death and Finality; the End before the Beginning. 

So if Unicron is steadfast in his role of Uncreation or the herald of the ending/beginning cycle, then now it raises the interesting question in TFP, what if Earth is its own entity? 

In the wise words of the mushroom meme: Decay is an extant form of Life.

Because would make so much sense:

This would neatly tie into the Autobots' confusion and dismissal over the many Earthen inhabitants' biological necessity and/or enjoyment to eat other creatures and living byproducts. (This raises questions about the lack of dietary options and possibly a far more limited fauna and flora amongst modern Cybertron.)

As well as the nature of Earth and its inhabitants since Death and Chaos touches many associated concepts: conflict, renewal, rejuvenation, evolution, illness, decay, destruction, change, regression, mortality, and so much more.

Could have been incorporated into the mythos of the Age of Antiquity, and a linkage to Optimus’ past as Orion Pax’s role of an archivist. There are very, very few things that Optimus could truly keep of his old self, so perhaps he would enjoy looking into databanks and open-access libraries. This could have opened dialogue with their human charges on the differences and similarities between the strict strata of Cybertron and the role of the internet in the modern day.

It would fill in the plot hole of Unicron, somehow not destroying the world when he switched to a bipedal mode, nor does he have a fondness for any creature of Earth.

(The place most likely galls him since there is life even at the most extreme conditions on the planet, and the dominant lifeforms mimic his brother-twin's own creations.)

Patterns form and patterns break, but some Laws are absolute. So by Unicron's own nature, Earth was born to follow the cycle of the universe. (Or unknowingly formed in his slumber to keep his own self alive. Otherwise, Unicron shall become obsolete.)

So not only Earth is deep in the galactic-equivalent of the boonies, this planet is the Cybertronian-equal of Space Australia. 

Which becomes even far more terrifying should the cyberization process have been successful because Earth is not Cybertron. It is its own entity. It would look at these newcomers and say Challenge Accepted on nightmare mode.

Truly worthy to be classified as a Death Planet.

And on a side note: If Megatronus Prime was the closest reflection of Unicron by Primus’ own hand, then would that mean he was supposed to fulfill a role or be an Aspect of Death on Cybertron? Anon, my mind is reeling here!

playlist lyrics meme!

5 songs for the character.

TEN FEET TALL — Charlie Hickey — I think I've seen this movie before / I'm gonna be the one who tries to push the pulling door / Well, maybe real life is better / Than movies, nightmares, deflated balloons

ASTHMA ATTACK — Noahfinnce — I am the physical embodiment of / Everything I never wanted to be / People must think this kid's fucking crazy / I am the prime example of indecision /Life hit me like a head-on collision/ But what am I supposed to do / When I'm so see-through?

ONE BY ONE — Patty Gurdy — Petal by petal your worries will settle, what will be and what won't? / Pressing your hands on the stinging nettle, hoping for cure, but it don't / I think I see how it got you to where you are now, a muddled up afterglow / Where you silently wander while hoping it won't crawl back on you as you go

WE’RE ALIVE — Cavetown — I don't really need to sleep much longer / But the longer I sleep, the slower my heart beats / There's fire on my floor telling me to sleep some more / Cry a little louder if you know what this means

BRIGHTER DAYS ARE BEFORE US — Meet Me At the Alter — Can't give up now 'cause I know all the bad will fade away / It will fade away / Is it just luck or is the future lookin' kinda great

HOW I SURVIVED BOBBY MACKEYS PERSONAL HELL — Lincoln — Well, if there’s one thing that I'm sure of / It’s that I think too much about shit that doesn’t matter / And I don’t think enough about things that make a difference / But would that even make a difference? / Doing anything at all would be overkill

Anyway, meet Vivianne {Rena}!

1) While Vivianne is a Streetkid through and through, she was born into the Corpo world-although she has no real memory of it. Her parents were high ranking Arasaka officals who both had hits put on them when Vivianne was just about to turn three. When the hitman realized there was a child involved, they panicked, scooped her up, and just kinda dropped her in a random spot, hoping the loose end of this mission would just...Take care of itself. Thankfully, she was found-and raised for the most part-by a younger Vik. But, since Vik doesn't know the origins of the stray he found one day, neither does she.

2) The reason her last name is in brackets above is because, while it IS her legal last name, she doesn't know that. She doesn't remember it. When Vik found her, she was able to tell him her first name but, for whatever reason, not her last. (Her parents had drilled it into her not to tell strangers her family name until she was older, lest people try to hurt the defenseless child when they learned she was from a corpo family.) Since she was able to babble out her first name, and heard it all the time from others, naturally, she remembered it. But since no one knew her last name and wasn't able to use it, as time went on, it faded from her memory. Vik has offered to let her have his last name, and she's considered taking on others' as memorials (Mainly Welles and, postgame, Silverhand) but as much as she loves these people, nothing has ever sounded right to her. So, she just goes by her full first name or, preferably, "V." She'll revisit the last name thing if/when she gets married.

3) Night City is already a dangerous place so she does her best to make sure it's safe as possible for the City's most vulnrable. Although she doesn't outwardly show it much, Vivianne has an extreme soft spot for kids and animals and will throw HANDS for them: while Vivianne doesn't like killing just for the sake of it and/or tries to do non-lethal takedowns as much as possible, there was no hesitation in gunning down the duo in "Dirty Biz."

4) In a place like Night City, this is something that's borderline foolish-plus she knows Jackie would probably tease her mercilessly if he knew-so Vivianne keeps this a tight kept secret. But, behind her sharp tongue and firey attitude, at heart, she is an extreme romantic. If you were to dig deeply through her apartment, you'd find a box with a mix of shards and physical books-all romance stories. You'd also find drawings and stories done by a young Vivianne, all depecting a Princess or Prince finding their Knight. However, where she lives and her line of work is no place for "girlish dreaming," so she keeps this part of her somewhat locked away. But still...A part of her hopes...Maybe one day...

5) She is a non-repulsed asexual! She doesn't actively seek out or want sex, but if she was to get a partner (Gender doesn't matter to her) who wanted to have some fun, she is 100% down. She's kinda the embodiment of the "Yeah, sex is cool and all, but have you ever tried {XYZ}?" meme.

Another Mika fic, let's go!

Oh honey I beg to differ. Wednesday is such a softie in her own complicated way. Less threats, less torture, more attention and even allowing physical contact. If she likes someone and does all that, then she's down bad. So no, Wednesday, you definitely ARE a softie.

And these first four paragraphs? Absolutely iconic and remarkable. The writing?? The metaphors?? The imagery?? The exaggerating cause Wednesday would rather die than admit she's soft??

Well... since I am currently on a family vacation with 24 years if age... I tend to agree with Wednesday. It definitely can be a gruesome torture method.

Lol disgusting and vile. But Wednesday is right again! Missing someone you care for (even though you keep denying that part (looking at you Wednesday) is definitely one of the worst feelings out there)

"Human embodiment of a rainbow" that made me snort, it's the perfect way to describe Enid. Now if only she was gay... then full on 100% rainbow bitch.

Oooh, Wednesday wants to take a ring from R! Moving fast, are we?

Lol Wednesday you thief! Of course commitment a crime will make her smile. But how adorable is it that Wednesday wants to keep Rs favorite ring so that she has something meaningful and important to remember them by?? CUTE

Ngl I love awkward goodbyes. They're just so amusing to witness!

Awwww a kiss! And in front of Weems to! That must have been mortifying for Wednesday. Yet she craved more. SOFT

Of course Wednesday is counting her victories against Bianaca. Go on girlboss! Keep beating her.

Damn, look at Wednesday searching for Rs smile and keeping the stories to tell them later. If that isn't simp behavior then I really don't know what is.

"Entirely unnecessary, but so were most things Enid did" The way I GASPED! Honey that's so savage and uncalled for 😭 Poor Enid. (Though it is utterly hilarious! )

"Higher than a 70" H.O.N.E.Y Were did that savagery come from?? Poor Enid is getting it all today. I absolutely LOVE it! A mean Wednesday is my favorite. That's just my kind of humor. Enid is so used to it by now she doesn't even react anymore. Good girl.

Wednesday, denial is a river in Egypt. I guess she'd really rather die than admit that she missed R. What matters could she possibly have in the courtyard?? NOTHING

"Not for a second" Call the police, I spotted a big fat liar!

"You're broke" Wednesday really is giving it her all today, isn't she. OBSESSED

Oooh Wednesday got caught! I'm sure there was a lot of panic in her voice so the only solution for that are threats! Honestly at this point Wednesdays threats are a form of love. And besides, shouldn't R keep her hand? You know for holding it and doing other things...

THE MEME. OMG THAT TOOK ME OUT 😂 That came so unexpected, I scared my dog with my laughter.

This was fantastic as always!!

slfdhfgks pls 😭

i think shinji is literally my most hated anime character when i think abt it. i am literally the "god you are extremely selfish, die" "im 13" meme. i hate that fucking child. he embodies the worst elements of malekind n needs to be put in a box and shipped off to the middle of the ocean. or idk just given to the angels so he can live out his yaoi clone fantasies cuz he is physically unable to view even a clone woman as a human being and is thus unable to have any meaningful relationship with any of them and somehow it's gotta be the entire world's problem

Private readings, memberships, shop all are OPEN all holiday season

You don't often start a sunny November and the holiday season with a cautionary tale, but here we are.

Maybe it’s because the social media collective declared an early spooky season this year in response to the apocalyptic heat this summer, and we are all feeling a little fatigue at the end of it. I get a strange sense of melancholy blowing in the wind today, which seems an odd way to start the Holiday season. It’s all turkey dinners and holiday shopping this month - I’ve already heard Carol of the Bells in advertising. That’s hard core.

A sunny Thursday like this doesn’t often start with a feeling of caution but here we are.

Today’s card is the king of pentacles, in reverse (meaning the card turned over upside down relative to the person doing the reading.)

“So what?” you might ask.

Every Tarot reader handles reversals in their own way. Some always reverse the meaning into ‘darker’ meanings. Some make it into the opposite of the upright meaning. Some disregard them outright. As we are learning in the Wednesday “Learn With Me: Lenormand” series, Lenormand readings handle reversals by not handling them. They just flip the card and go on as usual.

In true Taoism influenced style, I do a blend of both. The cards embody both light and dark, positive and negative aspects all the time anyway. I take all of those aspects into consideration with every reading regardless of the card’s orientation. When a reversal comes along, I let intuition lead. Either it is a hint that the card’s layout position is blocked or turbulent or somehow problematic OR it can feel energetically neutral and I just flip it upright and move on like the Lenormand folks do.

In this case, it feels like it is telling us something.

The phrase “risky buiseness” comes through. The King of Pentacles can reflect material success, a breadwinner, a provider, a good payoff for hard work.

Reversed, it can mean that sort of prosperity flow can get jumbled up.

To be literal about it - don’t get carried away this holiday season. Don’t go into debt or live beyond your means just for the sake of social expectations about how holidays are “supposed” to be celebrated, whatever your chosen holiday may be.

Here, I am reminded of a meme…”tradition is just peer pressure from dead people.” I have a sense that this meme might be particularly true this year. We’ve all been through a heckuva thing with the pandemic and such. We have an opportunity to re-define our Holidays. Let go of the peer pressure from dead people and make this year into something heartfelt more than material.

The suit of coins / pentacles is focused on the material realm, career, wealth and so on - but this is Tarot. The whole point of Tarot is understanding and spirituality, not physical realm predictions. Tarot isn’t made for physical realm except where physical and mental/emotional/spiritual all meet. The whole suit has esoteric threads intertwined with its real-world practicality. The whole suit has a “money can’t buy happiness” element to it.

My hunch that is what the inverted King is telling us. This isn’t the year for materialistic celebrations OR for forced traditions. Friendsgiving is a thing. This is a year for found family and perhaps a chance to let go of toxic or forced traditions that bow to the peer pressure from generations past.

That isn’t to say be overly austere. Celebrate. Indulge in the traditions and treats that speak to your heart. But don’t spend money or energy or emotion necessarily forcing yourself (or trying to coerce anyone else) into following old traditions that no longer serve or excesses that are no longer needed. Do, but do the truly meaningful, heartfelt things. Do, but let go of the forced, habitual, or ostentatious. Mind your bank account - both physical and emotional - this holiday season.

Thank you so much for reading!

There won’t be a newsletter next week or US Thanksgiving week.

In fact, the blogs and socials will go quiet November 9 - 13 and again November 22 - 27. I'm setting a pretty low bar for the holidays myself, but I do need to finish that sweater I'm knitting for a gift, sooo....

Merry Elfcon 5 for 2023!

March 2023

My last monthly check in ended with a nice little update. today marks 3/28/2023, and i have been in a relationship with my bf since 2/26/2023, and met on 2/22. talk about angel numbers, woaa. i wanted to list out the ways in which he makes me feel so special, and the things that have helped me fall in love with him. 1. communication. i love talking to people, esp when they hold a special place in my heart. dumb tiktok “coaches” say constant communication/ texting is lovebombing, but i disagree. texting is a way to get to know the person outside of their IRL personality, which can sometimes be held back if they are shy. I’ve had constant communication, good morning and night texts, and just silly little conversations and memes we’ve shared with eachother. I get a rush of happiness when i see his name on my notifications, wondering what he just said. his personality is amazing as well. we have a similar sense of humor, and even talking to him IRL is amazing. he’s funny too, and thinks im funny which is always a little ego boost. he’s constantly on my mind, and i want to know what he’s up to. 2. personality and values. i mentioned personality a little before, but it truly is one of the main reasons i clicked with him so fast. its strange to say, but it felt like i was catching up with an old friend, like we’d known each other for so much longer. a persons values are also important to me, and making sure that they align has always been a priority. and they do!! he’s such a caring person, and has not been afraid to be vulnerable/emotional with me. this is something extremely important to me, and i am also very emotional and do not like if people connect being emotionally vulnerable with negativity/weakness. we went to go see eeaao together, and he cried while watching which was a relief (LOL). i wanted to test values that may interfere with our future. if we are fortunate enough to grow older together and have our own children, i do not want to raise them with a parent that will see their emotions as weak, because thats how I was raised and it didn’t turn out so good. overall, he’s an amazing person, and i feel so fortunate to have met him the way i did. thing happen for a good reason. i may not believe in god, but i feel like this was a higher power move. maybe this means I should probably start going to church. 3. he's beautiful!! I like reminding him of this each time I look at him and smile. He replies “no” a lot which makes me a little sad. How can someone so beautiful deny their own gorgeous presence. I understand many people say physical looks shouldn't matter, but I think it def helps to have some eye candy. His beautiful face, body, personality embodies warmth. A sweet type of warmth you only feel after leaving a cold room. A spring-like warmth that doesn't blind your eyes, and feels like kisses all over the body. Looking into his eyes is mesmerizing, and I feel like my belly melts every time we look at each other for long periods of times. His smile, lips, teeth, and laugh make me gush every time I look at them. He told me I was the first to compliment his tooth gap, and the first to hand him his glasses when we’re intimate. a song that reminds me of him is “cocoon’ by Bjork.  im not sure how someone so perfect has been roaming in a neighboring city this whole time. but im so glad that I decided to go with downloading the app and having my friend help me with setting it up. otherwise, im not exactly sure what I would be doing. I know I would probably not be looking to date and just “focusing” on the next chapter of my life. but damn does having someone by my side make things 100% better. I am so in love with this boy that it is almost scary. I haven't felt this way about anybody In a long time. the scariness doesn't come from fear, but from awe that I finally have somebody I can give all my love to. My previous partners were all helpful in their own ways, but I never really felt in love with them (with the exception of one) in my adult life. sure there is always the fear that things may end one day, but I feel certain that even if things do not go as we hoped for, the love I am currently feeling can be seen as a happy, positive time in my life. 

Looking back at the timeline, its like things were perfectly timed out. in 2022, I was feeling the loneliness after graduating from undergrad. I was hurting from the betrayal of my mother and overall reflection of how I was treated as a child. I started therapy in august that year with an actual, good therapist. something I had discussed with my previous therapist was “putting myself out there” which. terrified me at the time. I ended things with her because I felt as we were going no where, and I was right. I've worked on so many things with my current therapist and it has greatly helped improve my quality of life. 

Here are some of the things that Im looking fwd to in 2023:

- starting graduate school. AH! scary! 3 year program

- growing at work. I recently got a raise which is amazinnn

- seeing my good friends again. haven't planned anything but I just have positive intentions LOL

- more memories and growing with my boyfriend. our half year will be 8/26, and 1 year on 2/26/24. how sweet ~U~

My Hero PSLE S4E7 "Lefty loosey, righty tighty"

"OMG I LOVE GRAMMARLY! I LOVE HOW IT CONSTANTLY CORRECTS MY GRAMMAR EVEN WHEN IT'S ACTUALLY CORRECT BECAUSE IT KEEPS DEFAULTING TO AMERICAN SPELLING AND THINKS MY BRITISH SPELLING IS WRONG, AND HOW IT SOMEHOW AUTO-CORRECTED MY TEXT TO GRANDMA'S DOCTOR FROM "Please let her eat KFC" TO "unplug her life support"! YES! SO NOW I HAVE ONE LESS GRANDPARENT! LESSGOOO!"

-said no one ever

"Speaking of, most of you don't really know me, but I do know every single one of you here, and your gang...I've never seen them around before," cum COM guy was saying.

"Well that might be because everyone looks the same here because everyone wears masks like these," *Xiao Ming gestures to mask he's currently wearing*

"Yeah, I'm fairly certain I've never seen you before," COM completely ignores Xiao Ming's comment.

"May I have your identification scar?"

"Wait what-"

*COM immediately rushes forward towards Xiao Ming before anyone can say or do anything, pins him against a wall, and forces his mask off like some sexy k-drama guy to the female lead*

*crowd at café gasps in shock as COM reveals he doesn't have a single scar on his face*

"Oh shit. Well whatever, it's just one commander of memes shit, how hard can it be to fight off someone whose only superpower is commanding memes?" Xiao Ming motivationally quotes to gang.

"Oh don't worry, I'm just really omniscient and know everything that encompasses memes, I can also summon and memise you at will,"

Oh fuck. You're not motivationally helpful, COM!

"And once again, my name is COM-"

"FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, STOP PRONOUNCING IT LIDDAT SIA!"

"NO! COM IS ALMIGHTY EVEN IF IT SHALL NEVER BE AS SUPERIOR AS CU-"

Alright alright time to move on to the brainwashed citizens.

"The....they....they are...they are tresspassers? Direct defiance of the Heavenly Lord! SEIZE THEM EVERYONE!"

Oh fuck. They completely forgot about the rather-large crowd of brainwashed citizens waiting at the door of the café eagerly awaiting their opportunity to pound Xiao Ming and gang in the heads.

Shit. They can escape the embodiment of cum himself, but they're not escaping brainwashed as shit citizens sia.

Anyway. Just as Xiao Ming and gang were preparing to load up their powers, Six with his dark energy and weather manipulation, Tempest and Kiefer with their Corvi energy, Ma Xiao Tiao with his gigachad energy and also Grandmaster with his reality warping power which theoretically both should be a game-changer and a useless superpower but we'll dive into that later, some guy wearing a black cloak and crow mask swooped in and saved the day! Yay!

Crow-face just calmly walked up to the crowd, and before COM or anyone could say anything, he just straight-up got up to them, punched them in the face, knocked them unconscious, and gestured to Xiao Ming and gang to come with him, then took off in the direction of the city gates again.

So Xiao Ming and gang followed.

And then they ran for another long distance again.

Then they reached another cave, but it's not the one where the entire population of infected Rainslashers are here, it's a different one-this one quite pretty leh, got lake and flowers and fruit trees. Anyway-

Then finally after running for so long, they finally reached the place.

Then you know what? Crow face, without anyone asking, touched his mask and disintegrated it (because clearly it's not a physical mask and it's one of those cool god things where you can summon and un-summon the mask at will), revealing his actually quite hot sia face.

"Ok," Xiao Ming interrupted. "Now who are you?"

And to that crow-face legit said nothing sia. He just stay silent for a while and stare off into space."Well, to that," oh now he's talking. "I am one of the 9 legendary poets of rhyme and song, I am the poet of Destruction,"

And now to the fact he was part of some other random new organisation he knew nothing about, and also the fact that his name is literally Destruction, Xiao Ming had only one word to say:

"HUH?"
