#I said there would be if writers weren't cowards

[do-you-ship-this-comic-ship]

propaganda:

This is for all of my fellow Two-Face and Gilda lovers out there! Personally I think that BruHarvey as a ship is underrated because of how much more popular other Rogues are (especially the Joker and the Riddler), and the prominence of ships between Bruce and various members of the Justice League (and of course the various comp het ships DC keeps trying to force Bruce into).

In comparison Harvey just doesn't really capture the fandom's imagination as much. Therefore BruHarvey isn't super popular because they don't consider it as an option a lot of the time. But that being said, I also find that a lot of people when presented with BruHarvey as a possible ship will be pretty amenable to it! It's just a fantastic ship if you want some old man/toxic/tragic yaoi! The ship has so much going for it! Childhood friends to lovers. Enemies to lovers. Friends in their civilian identities, as they try to pursue justice for Gotham together, and even friends after Harvey becomes a villain too! It's SO juicy and has SO much unexplored potential if DC weren't COWARDS and would just let Brucie kiss men already! Each of their themes of justice, duality, and redemptive love mirror one another in such an exceedingly tantalizing way that I could write a whole college thesis on it! But I'm not just here about them. I'm also here for my girl Gilda too!

Now BruHarvey may be an underrated ship... And Two-Face as a character is just about rated as a character (not underrated. Not overrated. Just rated). But Gilda...? My poor, poor girl Gilda! Writers never know what to do with her and refuse to give her the justice she deserves!!! Gilda is a big part of the reason why Two-Face was able to work so well as a character and concept all the way back in the 40's in the first place! I don't think that Harvey would have been as iconic of a character with as much staying power as he does with just... SO MANY imitators if it weren't for Gilda's presence and ability to help Harvey redeem himself! The whole point of Harvey as a character is that while he might be a villain, he is never too far gone as to not deserve a chance at redemption. He genuinely cannot help himself when it comes to the compulsion of doing crime. And in his original stories, he was able to redeem himself and reach a happy ending with Gilda helping him, supporting him, and loving him through that journey.

The reason that Batman doesn't kill is largely because of Harvey himself! His childhood friend that he deeply cares about, and who, no matter how much society at large, and even Harvey himself tells Bruce that he is beyond saving, that he still cares about nevertheless and will NEVER give up on! And Gilda was the first person to never give up on Harvey and was the one to lead him back to the light! In a time where Batman might still occasionally use a gun and where the punishment most criminals would recieve in the comics was death or a lifetime of jail, never to be seen again, Two-Face stood out because of his redemption! A redemption that the writers of the comics stuck to for decades in spite of a clear demand to have Two-Face back as a threat! (Hence the many, many imitators.) And sure, the helpless damsel who saves the bad guy through the power of love may be a tired trope these days, but it's still one that can work very well, and as a woman first written in the 40's Gilda actually has a surprising amount to her that later writers would forget or just outright ignore! Gilda clearly was a female character who had more going on in her life other than her boyfriend at the time she was first written. She was actually a sculptor!

A woman with her own well-respected career entirely divorced from her DA boyfriend's! And while Harvey was her primary muse, I have doubts that her career just stopped when he turned to crime! After all, she seems to have been a woman who owned a house and lived on her own and had enough wealth to spend her free time going to the movies (and apparently buying herself mysterious cloaks). In the 1940's! We love a woman who can get everything on her own without needing a man (though it is a nice bonus) in this household! And she was doing it as an artist when that stuff was less common! And her other biggest trait is her unshaking love and loyalty for Harvey. I think that it's genuinely interesting how the crime and murder matters very little to Gilda (and similar characters that fill her role in stories). What she doesn't like is how he lies and tries to decieve her specifically. She would die for Harvey. She would kill for Harvey. She will stay with and help him through thick and thin. No matter what.

And very few pieces of media do her character justice! The Long Halloween may ostensibly be about her, but they gave her nothing in her life other than the men she associates with, a desire for children, and murder. Not even a hint that she was a sculptor, barely a hint that she studied law or anything that other iterations offered! She's my girl! And she could honestly offer a number of very interesting story posibilities, if only writers saw her potential! But clearly they don't given that for the last several decades, they've been writing her out of stories, or killing her off in brutal fashion so that they don't have to deal with the question of what she's up to while Harvey is doing his crime stuff. Hell. Gilda was the catalyst for the Long Halloween, so why isn't Dark Victory about nor even include her in person!??? Why not explore her being Duela Dent's mother!? Why not show her standing by Bruce's side while the both of them try to help Harvey recover!??? Why do the writers try to make Harvey NOT a wife guy!? Why can't they let Gilda be around and Harvey's wife that's cooler and more chill than him!? Why must Harvey be single!? By far he has the best romantic chemistry with (out of anyone who isn't Gilda) Bruce and no other major character! But if you stick Harvey and Bruce together for that sweet, sweet tragic yaoi and angst... Well... First of all DC are COWARDS who refuse to let Bruce be into dudes. And second of all, why not just let Bruce, Harvey, and Gilda be together and poly!!!? But I'm no coward! Double the partners means double the chances for tragedy and angst! (Or comedy if you'd like!) And double the possibilities for love, recovery, and redemption! Gilda wouldn't and shouldn't give up on Harvey!

And Bruce and Gilda cheating on Harvey without his blessing!??? BROKE! Them being in a polycule? Excellent! And if you need any proof that Bruce, Harvey, and Gilda could be a functional polycule, you should read the daily newspaper Batman comics as archived on @daily-batman! Because they make a GREAT case for it there, and seeing their relationship develop in that story is just delightful! Harvey watches Batman (that he's half figured out is Bruce) kiss his wife (named Alice but like... She's CLEARLY just Gilda with a different name!) and isn't bothered by it AT ALL other than it giving her hope that he can get better! Kissing his wife? That he understands and is perfectly fine with. But giving her HOPE!!!??? Now THAT'S a line too far! Sounds like something someone poly might do! And also... That series finale!!! Lol. Harvey getting jealous of and trying to kill Bruce for thinking that he's stealing his girl? Nah. Broke. Harvey being a-okay with Bruce smooching his wife because he's already in love with Bruce too...? HELL YEAH! Let's do it! Who needs love triangles when you can have power throuples instead!??? Join the few of us that enjoy the ship! And give Gilda and BruHarvey the love they deserve!!!!

Also just LOOK at the image I sent and tell me that it DOESN'T look like Bruce, Harvey, and Gilda are getting poly-married! BruHarvey is juicy and even more juicy with the added DLC of Gilda in the mix! And Gilda deserves the whole world! Give them the world!

I'm back

And I'm back with my oneshot with Michael Gavey. He fucking came back from the dead. Some can call it resurrection.

I needed these 24 hours just for myself to think about why I was writing at all and why I was doing it.

To talk about it with my husband who, as always, knowing me inside out, said that I didn't deserve to have my work and commitment here wasted by people who don't have the courage to write to me under their own nickname.

Just to be clear - it doesn't matter when or if any of you would read my oneshot. When, why or if you will do it is neither something to feel guilty nor proud of, like reading or not anything I wrote or will write.

I remind you that's my space, not yours. Anon asks stays off, because I know who you really are.

Cowards.

From now on, I will be much stricter about what other people "opinion" should and should not be.

I will block anyone, anons, writers or readers, who cannot watch their words - even if it's on your blogs, in your asks, comments, reblogs or statements - I don't want to see any ironic, hurtful bullshit on my wall anymore.

I will block them, but I will never nag them. I just don't need them in my life, in my space. Learn from me, anon haters. I hope me coming back is your stick in the ass and not in the pleasurable way.

I don't care if you think I'm a sweet and innocent author with no flaws - I'm not. I've never been. I don't care about maintaining this image either.

Yes, I can't stand anons who send me and other authors baseless criticism. They were and will remain my enemies. I will never be nice to them, because by hiding they lose the last of my respect.

However, I have never been and will never be unpleasant to people who ask me thoughtful questions with the respect that one person can and should expect from another. Usually it's not about the question itself, but about how it was asked.

Writing anonymously to others that you wish their pets to die, that it's good that they lost their child, or to me that I don't really love my husband and I'm cheating on him because I write fanfics is not the smartest idea.

You are just sad, jealous idiots.

Now.

A few of people here are trying to keep this sticky tape glued fandom from falling apart and I sincerely admire them: @ewanmitchellcrumbs @targaryenrealnessdarling @oneeyedvisenya @theoneeyedprince @valeskafics @black-dread

This fandom doesn't deserve you, but there you are.

+ I wanted to say 'thank you' to all of the writers who just reached me to say that they are sorry, to say that I have a right to write whatever I want. Do what I want without being judged.

Finally, I cannot help but mention the wave of anonymous and non-anonymous messages from my fans, to which I apologize for not responding. I've read them all.

Many of you came out of the shadows and wrote to me for the first time, showing me how much my stories mean to you. Thank you for all the memes, photos, drawings and words of comfort, very long and very short messages.

If it weren't for you, if it weren't for my husband who told me that I needed a break - not to destroy everything I created, I would have deleted this account a few days ago. He said that I should care more about my own mental comfort, which I intend to do.

I deleted my Discord account to withdraw from the fandom a bit and to put what happened behind me. I don't have good emotions right now that I could share with you in these groups, which you deserve. I don't want to be a ghost account there.

If you want to talk to me or explain something, you can reach me in private messages.

So. Karawana jedzie dalej, as we say in Poland. Those who want to be tagged, please let me know here or privately.

I don't know when I will publish my other works, but I will.

Welcome back.

Y'know, I think I've just figured out why I don't like that season two made Ciel a demon.

It's not the concept itself (even if it feels like a fanfic), and it's not even the convoluted process of turning him into a demon (though that bugs me too, but it's redeemable).

It's Sebastian's reaction.

Because I don't think Sebastian would be that upset about serving Ciel for eternity. As long as Ciel wasn't, like, entirely different as a demon, I rather think he'd enjoy it. I know that anime Sebastian and manga Sebastian haven't gone through the same character arcs, but I don't think they'd be polar opposites.

I mean, we've all talked about the idea of Sebastian no longer wanting to complete the contract or take Ciel's soul, right? He's having far too much fun in this game, and he's played himself because now he cares. Genuinely, I don't think he'd be able to bring himself to kill Ciel or take Ciel's soul. I think he wants Ciel himself more than he ever wanted his soul.

So why does anime Sebastian act as though it's the end of the world that he's lost Ciel's soul and still has to serve Ciel? Personally, I think Sebastian would enjoy that! He outright said he enjoys this game of theirs and likes obeying Ciel's orders. Now he doesn't even have to worry about what will happen when Ciel's revenge is complete, because he knows that, beyond maybe a change of scenery so people don't get suspicious, everything will stay as he likes it.

I think the anime tries to downplay Sebastian's affection for Ciel outright, a lot. Sure there's a lot of fanservice, but whenever it's addressed they double down on the "Sebastian only wants Ciel's soul" idea far harder than the manga does. The way they have it play out in the anime, it really feels like they've reduced him to that - they've made him react as though he only cares about Ciel's soul and not Ciel himself.

The only reason I can see Sebastian reacting that way is if he assumed that Ciel would no longer care about him once he became a demon. (Which, for the record, I think Ciel would absolutely still care about and love Sebastian, demon or not.)

Now, if the anime writers weren't cowards and had just had Sebastian turn Ciel with his permission-

Hey I don’t want to comment for real bc I’m sick of arguing with people on tumblr

I just wanted to say that in that post about deadpool and wolverine’s queerness, you are like 1000% in the right. Normally I don’t feel this strongly about stuff but anyone who thinks that Disney seriously and earnestly “delivered” on deadpool (and wolverine?) being queer is delusional

I mean, I love the movie. I’ve seen it twice and giggled my way through it both times. Obviously I enjoy the queer aspect of their relationship. But what you said about being able to be critical of your favorite media is important. The fact that people are arguing that there are no issues with the gay jokes in d&w but ACTUALLY it’s all indicative of a genuinely made film about two queer men is like actually SO crazy

Thank you, yes! The movie is absolutely amazing in the fact it's funny and well written. And yes I like the gay jokes, they're cheeky and enjoyable. But I think they'd be more enjoyable if any amount of Wade's (and also Logan's) queerness was taken seriously. Even just a little seriously.

I think the part that annoyed me about the movie most was Wade breaking up with Vanessa. Yeah it works for the movie and his character development. But at the same time I can't help but assume the reasoning for it was so queer people could go "hey they're both single, maybe just maybe Deadpool and Wolverine will get together?" No they won't this is Disney. He'll probably be back together with Vanessa eventually (even if it's not immediately).

Like I said on the comments of the post you're referring to; saying this is good queer rep is just an excuse so Disney (and Marvel) doesn't have to actually try to make good representation. The MCU has had many issues like this before. The single Loki bisexual conversation only for them to chicken out on the mlm ship they were hinting at in S2 promotions. Loki also being labeled as genderfluid in promo stuff just for him to be referred to as a male Loki and such. Characters who are canonically bisexual in the comics like Starlord showing absolutely zero hints to their queerness. Eternals is the only real representation I can think of, but it felt very one note and boring. Like that whole movie.

In conclusion Deadpool is a great movie but my biggest gripe is just that the queer aspect is not taking seriously. As much as I love the Honda Odyssey scene, it would be cool if it wasn't just a weird mix of coding/bait. Queer coding is still a great writing tool. Using metaphors for queerness in fantasy can be fun. But the reason queer coding existed in the first place is because you weren't allowed to show any queer people on screen. But times have changed! You can show it, but Disney are cowards. The movie is also queerbaity as they set up things like Vanessa's break up only to start them almost back up again with Logan himself telling Wade to go for the girl. Not to mention all the promotional posters like Deadpool and Wolverine as Beauty And The Beast. Disneyland Deadpool is also being VERY heavy on the gay jokes, which makes me feel like they KNOW who their main target audience was gonna be with this movie, but they still need to cater to the movie dudebros as well. Maybe one day guys, maybe.

It's important to be critical of even your favorite media. If you weren't then it could never improve. Let your voices be heard! And to the people who think movies don't deserve such debate; why do you think that? So many people say that so they don't have to discuss representation in media but then turn around and rant about the comic accuracy. Also what do you think happens in a writers room? Criticism is important in media even to professionals. A movie is a group effort, many people had different ideas that eventually came together and made Deadpool 3. They also probably had many ideas that were shut down and not put in Deadpool 3 for various reasons. Some most likely being criticisms.

Ok I'm done ranting now. Deadpool 3, great movie, one of my favorites. But it would have benefited not only itself by being true to Wade and Logan letting them be their authentic queer selves; But it also would have benefited the queer community.

What is the tragedy of Rhaenicent exactly? Rhaenyra orders Alicent to kill her sons so she and Jace can ascend the throne, Alicent is shown to be a coward who readily complies. Doesn't even make her own demands e.g. punish Daemon for killing my grandson.

The only tragedy of Rhaenicent is how badly the writers screwed Alicent over just so Rhaenyra looks good in comparision. That's what Episode 8 was all about: reminding the audience how much better a Queen/mother/leader/politician Queen Rhaenyra I Targaryen is compared to Alicent Hightower.

It's because Alicent is a good politician that she makes the decision she does. I realize that sacrificing Aegon is not going to win Alicent Mother of the Year by any means, but I think there's a lot of factors that go into that decision. Helaena being the main one.

Alicent knows how things work. Her mission to Dragonstone was one purely of peace. She wouldn't have risked a voyage like that with one guard and then present Rhaenyra with her own demands. I think Alicent hoped her offer of surrender would dissuade Rhaenyra from executing Aegon, but when Rhaenyra said it must happen, Alicent didn't seem surprised. If she had refused, Helaena and Jaehaera's lives would be at risk. Helaena's choice in 2.01 is a direct parallel to Alicent's choice in 2.08.

I feel the main tragedy of Rhaenicent is that these two women loved each other before any of the strife between their families occurred. Their fathers pinned them against each other for their own gain, and so much devastation has happened since that their relationship can't be mended. Even if they both wish it weren't so.

You can't tell when exactly small arguments turned into big fights. Maybe it started with her wanting to control you. You didn't care when she asked to look at your cell phone or when she asked you not to always be so nice to any girl who came close to you. But it got to a point where she asked you to stay away from certain friends or that such clothes weren't cool to go to a party.

You've been in a toxic relationship before and you've opened up about it to her. You didn't imagine that after leaving a traumatic relationship you would end up in another. You told her your fears, you trusted her with your insecurities and now it seems like she uses all of this against you, to control you, to make it seem like you are crazy and weak.

You fight back, you've already explained countless times that you would never do anything, you would never cheat on her. You're already tired, but something always pulls you back to her.

After a lot of thinking, a lot of crying, a lot of shouting and fighting, you've decided that you've had enough, that you won't fall into another one of her traps that make you insecure and that makes you think that you're nothing without her.

You were brave enough to leave once and you know you are strong to face it once again. Even with a voice in the back of your head telling you to be afraid, to avoid fights, you have to do this for yourself, for your peace.

“Yeah? where are you going? You packed your things to leave without looking me in the face like a coward” she says mockingly after seeing the suitcases at the door of the house.

“It’s not my things” you say, trying to keep your emotions in control. You can't imagine that the person in front of you is someone you once loved immensely. “It’s yours. This is my house, you’re the one leaving, not me”

“What are you talking about? Are your stupid friends talking nonsense to you again?”

“I’m the one speaking. You’re the one who brought your things here and lives under my roof”

“Are you really going to do this? Just because I said your friends suck? That no one is your real friend?”

“ENOUGH, PLEASE, I CAN’T TAKE IT ANYMORE!” you scream, all you feel are tears in your eyes wanting to escape and your hand shaking with anger and anxiety. “No more putting things into my head that aren’t true! That's you, not me. It’s you who has no one, it’s you who no one cares about”

“My love-”

“Get out of my house now! I will not repeat it again”

“You're going to regret everything you're doing, I feel sorry for you” she takes her bags and leaves without looking back.

The lump you were feeling in your throat loosens and you sob, letting all the emotions finally flow and go away. It was for your good, you repeat over and over in your fragile mind to your hurting heart.

drunk text ↠ lee haechan

masterlist

pairing: haechan x fem!reader

genre: angst

words: 1,174

i wish i was who you drunk texted at midnight a few days ago. i wish i was the reason you stay up 'til 3, i wish i was the boy you think about at night when you can't sleep at night. i wish i was more than just a friend to you.

“thank you for walking me home, hyuck” you said looking at him as you stood in front of your house.

“y/n, you don’t need to thank me. i like spending time with you so yeah,” he sent you a soft smile.

“the sky is beautiful tonight, right? the stars and moon are visible today, i love it!” you stared at the sky, not noticing how haechan was looking at you.

the truth is that this boy has been totally in love with you for as long as he can remember. your mutual friends, especially renjun and mark, have been telling him for a long time that he should finally confess his love to you. but he was afraid. afraid of rejection, afraid of losing you, afraid of destroying your friendship.

but he wanted you so much, he wanted to hold you in his arms and tell you how much he loves you. he wanted so much to take you on dates, hold your hands, spend every free moment with you. he would like you to let him love you the way you deserve to be loved.

“y/n i-” he paused as you looked at him. the sparkle in your eyes was beautiful. at that moment he was ready to confess his love to you, but he noticed that you were shivering from the cold, he didn't want to keep you outside, he didn't want you to get sick because of him. “forget it. go home, it’s cold.”

maybe it's a good thing he didn't say his feelings out loud, maybe he saved himself from embarrassing himself in front of you. because he knew the chances of you loving him back were slim.

so at that moment he decided to leave without turning to look at you for the last time that evening. because he didn't want you to see his teary eyes. he didn't want you to worry. he didn't want to tell you how he felt about you. he was afraid, he was a coward.

a week has passed. that day you and haechan decided to have a few drinks.

you and him had a lot of fun together. you reminisced about your childhood, watched movies, played games, joked with each other as you always used to.

haechan loved your laugh. loved the twinkle in your eyes when you laughed. he loved the way you leaned against him and grabbed his arm as you laughed. he was glad to have you in his life, he was glad to have someone who made his days so much better. he loved the feeling of butterflies in his stomach as you rested your head on his shoulder. loved the way you often talked about everything and nothing at the same time. he loved how you weren't afraid to be yourself around him.

later that night, when he got home, he burst into tears remembering how you told him that a few days ago at midnight you sent drunk texts to a man you liked. it broke his heart, but what could he do? he couldn't change it, so all he could do right now was cry out his eyes, the sick feeling circulating in his stomach.

without thinking clearly, he started texting you. funny how it was also night for him and he was as drunk as you were a few days ago when you texted your crush.

i wish i was who you drunk texted at midnight a few days ago. i wish i was the reason you stay up 'til 3, i wish i was the boy you think about at night when you can't sleep at night. i wish i was more than just a friend to you.

but he was a coward. he didn't send it, he deleted it before he clicked send.

a few months passed, spring came. it was april and everything was in bloom, a lot had changed in the world.

the boy you liked turned out to be a terrible person so even your feelings about him have changed.

the only thing that hasn't changed is his feelings for you. he still thought of you, he still loved you. maybe even more than before. sometimes he questioned if maybe you also felt the same. he wondered if he was on your mind as often as you were on his. but he was too afraid of losing a friend if he took a risk and confessed his love to you.

you got closer to him so he wondered if all the pranks and jokes you made together were just an attempt to hide your feelings for each other.

hiding his feelings for you was hard. hyuck changed a bit, he was less happy than ever which even your mutual friends noticed. they tried to convince him to confess his love, because maybe if he knew the truth what you think about him, it would be easier for him. maybe you would be happy together, or maybe if your answer was negative, then maybe he would lose his feelings and come back to life, maybe he would be happy again.

but no, he would rather lose himself than lose you. he was destroying himself to keep a friend. to keep you.

months passed again and his feelings still hadn't changed. he still wished you were his, he still wished he was the one for you. he still hoped that maybe you love him too, but like him, you're afraid to tell him.

that’s why when one day you came to him to tell him something, he was waiting like a fool to hear three words from you: I love you. after all, everyone can dream about something like that, right? especially when it was the girl you had loved for several years.

that's why he got heartbroken again when he heard something different from you, something he never wanted to hear.

“and then he asked me out and i said yes!” you said smiling happily. he wanted to be happy for you, he wanted to be happy that you were happy. but he couldn't. at that moment, not even your laughter and smile could make him feel better.

“oh, i’m glad you found someone you like,” he tried to sound enthusiastic, but as soon as the words left his mouth, he was sure they didn't sound that way. but you were definitely too happy to see how he was suffering in that moment — and that’s okay, he was glad cause he wouldn't want you to see him like that.

and as soon as you left his apartment, he slid to the floor bursting into tears. at that moment he wished he had sent that stupid message a few months ago. he regretted not confessing his feelings to you. because maybe things would have turned out differently, maybe you would have fallen in love with him too.

but now it was too late. because you fell in love with someone else, you fell in love with someone who is not him.

Dude the fact that you're hating on the byler side of the fandom for speculating on what they're filming in the church is crazy, when you youself have posted such outlandish theories like 'Hopper killed a cat as a teenager' bffr

Dude the fact that you're hating on me on anon is crazy, when I myself post my hate openly and with my name attached.

🚨 Coward Alert! 🚨

Also: Those posts were non-rebloggable. That means you either follow me, or you stalk my blog. I'm not sure which is more embarrassing for you!

Anyway, to actually address what you said:

I didn't say Hopper killed the cat, I said "which of these two (Henry or Hopper) seems more like someone who would be violent towards animals of their own volition" WORKING WITHIN IN THE FRAMEWORK ESTABLISHED BY HOPPER'S TREATMENT OF EL. The line from the Hopper TFS audition tape indicated that he a) hates cats, b) wants to beat the shit out of one, and c) wants to shake the hand of the guy who killed the (at the time) unnamed cat. Which one seems more likely to harm things smaller than him: A guy with that ^^ line, or a kid who looks disturbed and vaguely ill while interacting with a rabbit that broke its leg in a snare? And I wasn't even entirely wrong. I was wrong about Hopper, which I admitted freely, but I was never wrong about Henry. It was a line that existed in a video that was immediately redacted when the other tapes weren't, indicating that it was too close to spoiler territory…and it DID appear in the play! The content of the other videos did not! Funny how that works.

As indicated above, I do my best to make sure my theories always have some kind of factual basis. The byIer theory you're referring to is based in what people want to see happen, not what's actually been presented to them...and that's ALWAYS going to end in disappointment (<- something I have said many times, something that shapes how I do analysis). There was no indication that the church was going to be about byIer, and I said multiple times that the quote on the sign is more about the Creels/Henry's thing with the Mindflayer...Especially since Mike and Will don't have a lick of religious trauma between them, unlike Henry who has a whole ass arc in a church 💀. Lo and behold: red mindscape lights at the church. Vecna. No Finn, iffy on Noah. Who would have thought...who could have guessed...who could have foreseen...........

I don't have the attitude. When I saw TFS and realized the line had been taken out of context, I immediately posted and said "Huh, I was wrong about Hopper. That's a lesson about assumptions." I didn't overdose on copium about it and post "uuuhuhuh it can still happen Hopper can still have been a violent teen". No. I acknowledged that I was wrong in December, and I have since altered my theories accordingly. I let it go. I've also said over and over that all of my theories have a maximum confidence rating of 50/50. Most of them rank in at about 10-15% confidence. It's the academic writer in me that says "post your hypothesis with confidence, and if you're wrong, then retract and try again". I've never been that cocky and self-assured...because it's embarrassing to have acted that way only to be wrong (especially!! when it's something easily disproven, like "the church is all about byler"). If other people, like you, want to ignore my self-awareness and try to make me out as a hypocrite, that's no longer a me problem. That's a you problem. Lol. Lmao, even.

You still interested in mpreg prompts? How about Deckard finding out he's pregnant in the middle of a mission and Luke suddenly becomes incredibly protective, trying to get the job done as soon as possible so they can go home and cuddle <3

I am ALWAYS interested in mpreg prompts!! This is a beautiful prompt and it'd totally happen in canon (if the writers weren't cowards lol)

~~~

Deckard knew he shouldn't have gone on this mission.

He had known as soon as he had vomited that morning that his body wasn't in the right condition. But, he had chalked it up to the smell of breakfast that had turned his stomach. Normally, bacon didn't have that kind of effect on him, but it had made him run for the nearest bathroom.

Luke had naturally told him to stay back and he could go solo on the mission, but Deckard refused profusely.

Like hell he was going to let Luke go by himself, even if it was a simple mission.

There was nothing wrong with having backup.

Now though, as he leaned against a pillar away from gunfire, he seriously regretted coming along.

Swallowing thickly, Deckard could feel the tell-tale tickle in the back of his throat that he was about to vomit again. The strong scent of smoke and gunpowder was thick in the air, choking him.

"Bloody hell..." Deckard moaned to himself as he pressed a hand to his stomach.

"Deck, where are you?!" Luke yelled over their comms.

"Out of the way," Deckard grunted. "Can you handle yourself, twinkletoes?"

"Of course I can," Luke laughed back. "Are you ok?"

Taking a measured breath, Deckard didn't know what to say. He didn't want to make Luke worry; Deckard could handle himself even if he could keep his stomach in check.

With his hand on his stomach he pressed a bit more firmly and blinked.

Since when had his stomach felt like a hard bump?

He hadn't changed his diet-- ok that was a lie. For the last month, he had been experiencing even more cravings for sweets than normal. He had indulged, promising to hit the gym more.

The more he thought of it, the more he began to realize what else had been different about his daily life.

More often than not, he would feel tired and would take frequent naps during the day. Alongside that, he had been far more touchy with Luke. There wasn't a moment he didn't want to cuddle.

Once again pressing down on his stomach, Deckard knew.

He was pregnant.

"Luke..."

"Deckard?" Luke's voice had an edge of concern.

"I think I'm pregnant."

There was a beat of silence.

"What?! How?"

"Well, when a mummy and a daddy love each other very much--"

"I know how babies are made, you prick. I meant, I thought we were using protection."

"Looks like your swimmers are just too strong."

"Guess so," Luke huffed. "You said you were in a safe spot?"

"Yeah."

"Stay there. I'll handle these assholes and come get you."

"What? I can still fight."

"Like fuck I'm gonna let you do that."

"Excuse you?!" Deckard barked back.

"Don't start with me, princess!" Luke shouted back. "You're not risking just your life now!"

Deckard cursed. Luke was right.

"Fine."

"Just sit tight," Luke soothed.

Deckard scowled but knew better than to keep arguing. If he had known this was going to most likely be his last mission, he would have picked a bigger one. Something more exciting than shooting a gun.

In no time, the gunshots stopped and Deckard heard loud footsteps coming towards his hiding spot. Stepping out from behind the pillar, Deckard smiled softly as he spotted Luke.

He looked ethereal.

The afternoon sun shown off the sweat coating his body, showing off his flexing muscles. He walked with his back straight, shoulders thrown back, as he walked confidently towards Deckard.

"Hey there, princess."

Deckard met him halfway and threw his arms around Luke's shoulders.

"We're having a baby," Deckard smiled as he leaned forward and kissed Luke.

"I can't wait," Luke purred as he deepened the kiss. So lost in the sensation of Luke claiming his mouth, Deckard yelped as he felt himself being lifted into the air.

Now being held in Luke's arm, bridal style, Deckard glared at him.

"I can walk you know."

"I know," Luke smirked, not letting Deckard down.

Rolling his eyes, Deckard laid his head on Luke's shoulder. He had a feeling he'd be finding himself in this position more often.

"Guess Hatts and Oh will have to take my place on our mission," Deckard said.

Luke made a pained face.

"If that's what it takes to keep you safe," he agreed begrudgingly.

Laughing to himself, Deckard tightened his hold on Luke.

He couldn't wait to meet their baby.

I may have already made a post about this but I don't think I have so I thought I'd take the chance. I have these rants or thoughts in my head and sometimes I just have to get them down in writing or I'll be playing it in my head all day lol

I feel like the One Tree Hill writers room went to work and the first thing they said was "This show is not going to be Dawson's Creek and we are going to make that clear at every turn."

The first thing I think about is the Lucas and Haley friendship. They even went out of there way to separate Lucas/Haley from Dawson/Joey by making Haley make disparaging jokes about Dawson and Joey in the Pilot. I really respect the decision to make Lucas and Haley only friends and they never wavered from that. There was never even a second when they hinted that their relationship could be more than friends.

In some ways Nathan and Haley are equivalent from Pacey and Joey in One Tree Hill and they made the decision of getting Nathan and Haley together and then never really breaking them up. Unlike the Pacey and Joey model where there was the stupid love triangle with Dawson and they broke them up and got them together and broke them up again. Pacey and Joey really deserved better writers. Pacey and Joey have some of the best chemistry in TV and the writers did not know how to utilize that treasure.

The female friendships are absolutely atrocious in Dawson's Creek. I mean is there really a female friendship? I mean I guess Jen and Joey but even that was littered with tension most of the time and even after they buried the hatchet Joey would put men above Jen all the time. Like when she started dating the guy who cheated on Jen and then when Jen tried to help her she was really mean to Jen. I blame the writers for that. That is atrocious! Write better female friendships you cowards. In One Tree Hill, the friendships certainly have their ups and downs but you have Haley and Brooke, Brooke and Peyton, Haley and Peyton, Deb and Karen. Every woman on the show has at least one really great female friendship.

The fact that OTH never killed off any of the original teenage characters as in Nathan, Haley, Brooke, Lucas, Peyton, Skills, Mouth. Dawson's Creek just had to be assholes and kill off Jen in the last episode. But I really think giving all of them happy endings was really a concerted effort to be different from Dawson's Creek. And the reason I believe that is that they even brought on James Van Der Beek in a small role where he played a director... kind of a wink to his character in DC and he's talking to Lucas about his book that's going to be turned into a movie. It's something that's so similar to DC. Both Dawson and Lucas wrote books, movies, or TV shows about their lives. James' character has this to say "All right, clear your head, all right? What if Haley... Dies? I'm saying think about it. People love that stuff." You can tell that sometimes the writers are poking fun at some of the Dawson's Creek writing choices and I fully support it lol

The writers on One Tree Hill weren't always great and there was certainly one completely rotten apple in that bunch... cough M*** S****** cough but it really seemed like they went into writing the show with the intentions that it was gonna be better than Dawson's Creek in every way. Now if only there could have been a Dawson's Creek/One Tree Hill crossover and we could have seen Pacey and Joey show up in OTH then it would have been perfect lol

[akajustmerry]

about that lestat post, i know you wrote writers, but it's literally just rolin jones. despite the first ep, this is the only one he has written on his own. like, he talked about how many of the other writers in the writers room disliked the twist and he wasn't able to convince them to like it/agree with it in the end. and it makes so much sense if you pair that with his "i only wanted to adapt iwtv to do rockstar lestat", because his vision for rockstar lestat in s3 is based entirely on him being a white saviour who always just acted out of love and is so very sorry, perfect set up for the whole forgiveness crap. he needed to get lestat into the starting position for his s3 vision and who gives a shit if it goes against the 14 episodes that came before and who cares if in the process it makes the non white characters into idiots and cowards in the process :/ and don't get me started on claudia and jones teasing her return, because you know it would just be to reconcile with lestat and forgiveness blabla and not the very much more interesting dynamic of her and louis.

yo fuck Rollin Jones!!! me and the besties all hate that guy and we're lining up with our hammers!!!! But also I said writers because even though there are decisions that are exclusively Rollin, there are other elements of the series that weren't that are still icky. but yeah anyway I'm not surprised he struggled to convince a group of people (who we know are NOT paid well) that a narrative decision undermining at least 4 years worth of work was vital.

Love is a confusing thing. Not everyone is blessed enough to feel this concept. You have always thought that you were incapable of doing so, that you weren't worthy. 'Cause all you felt in this life that you have lived was nothing but rejection which made you dense to the feeling of Love. And you knew, that Ellie was the same. You both were looking for the same thing. And it felt so good that you both were able to provide it for each other.

"In this life I have done nothing but love you." Ellie whispered.

The denial that was evident throughout was just a decoy for the intense love that couldn't be displayed. You both were cowards. You didn't accept the risk of losing someone who you spent your whole life with just because you loved them more than a friend should love another. Love is a confusing thing. You hoped to God that it would change for the better.

It did. It seemed like the whole world revolved around you and her only. You were deprived of love, Ellie knew that. Ever since you were a child you have done nothing but try to get the constant approval of your parents. You had done nothing but try to achieve the academic goals or even the career goals for no one but them and them only. The love that was lacking throughout your life, was provided by Ellie. And the love that was lacking through hers, were provided by you.

You were going to meet up with Joel, you had just put on something casual as the planned set-up would only be in a café. You decided to not outdone yourselves because you wanted the ambiance to be just perfect to announce you and Ellie’s relationship. To be completely honest, you were a nervous wreck. And Ellie didn’t seem to get that at all. But, the things that ran through your mind was just “what if he doesn’t like me for Ellie?” or “what if he thinks that i’m too full of myself?”

You gulped as you blankly stared at the mirror, your gaze travelling up and down your body as you were so unsure of how presentable you wanted to be. “You’re fine.” Ellie broke the silence as she stood behind you, her arms crossed. “Why are you so nervous? You’ve been with Joel ever since we were 5.” Ellie asked as she looked at you in to the mirror. “I don’t know. What if he doesn’t like me for you? I mean I wasn’t the best child at all, he always scolded me when we would play in the backyard and- what if hejustdoesntlikemeforyoubecauseimnotthegirlwhoheseesyouwith?” You rambled as your hands went their ways through the air as Ellie stared at you dumbfoundedly. Is that even a word? It’s probably possible ‘cause that’s the way Ellie’s feeling right now.

“You’re doing too much, seriously.” Ellie laughed as she stepped closer to you to hug you from behind. “You’re going to be okay. Like I said, you’ve known him your whole life.” You sighed at the reassurance as you melted under her embrace. You nodded as you accepted your “faith”.

A few hours later, you and Ellie had arrived to the café. You both got out the car, laughing as you both noticed that your breaths both hitched. You looked at eachother as Ellie pointed at the window, you followed her direction and saw Joel sitting quietly at the booth, reading a newspaper and sipping a cup of coffee. He never changed. You thought.

You and Ellie walked in the café hand in hand as you both walked up to Joel. “Hey..” Ellie said almost whispering as she caught Joel’s attention. “Hey kiddo. Oh have I missed ya.” Joel claimed giving Ellie an excited shit-eating grin. He stood up as he gave Ellie a tight hug, ruffling her hair in the process. “Fuck- JOEL!” Ellie groaned as they both laughed.

You stood there, admiring the two as your heart melted. You wished that you could feel like that again, but the last time you ever felt that way was when you were 8 years old. “Hey Y/n.” Joel said as he walked up to you and gave you a fast and soft hug. You always were awkward with eachother. “Hey Joel” You said giving him a soft smile. Ellie snorted, catching you and Joel’s attention. “Come on, you guys.” Ellie said patting the empty space beside her. You looked at Joel and he nodded giving you the empty spot next to Ellie’s as he sat in front of you both.

“Look, Joel. A lot has happened this past few months or years and i’m really happy to see you but… I have to tell you something.” Ellie said straightforwardly gripping at your hand under the table. “Throw it at me, kiddo.” Joel said as he smiled and leaned back against the booth couch. “Me and Y/n are together.” you all went silent as you looked at Ellie and Joel. It went quiet as it seemed like they were both trying to win a staring contest. Not until the silence was broken by Joel’s laughter. “Kiddo, that’s nothing new to me! I thought you both were already together before I left the goddamn country.” Joel said as he snorted laughing too hard at Ellie’s face. You observed Ellie as she had her mouth agape and staring blankly at Joel. “Oh, fuck you.” Ellie spat as they both laughed. “I’m happy for y’all. Really.” Joel reassured as he looked at you. “I never knew you had it in ya.” You blushed in embarassment as you gripped at Ellie’s arm. She chuckled and kicked Joel’s foot. “Sorry, sorry.. I was just sayin’ “

“It must be hard for ya, since ya know.. your parents.” Joel spoke hesitantly as he tried to look for any expressions on your face that were a sign of discomfort. There weren’t any. “I moved out a couple of years ago and I haven’t contacted them since.” You smiled as you fiddled with your hands. “That must’ve felt horrible, i’m so sorry to have brought it up kiddo.” Joel smiled.

“I think you’re great for Ellie. Really.” Your eyes widened as you realized the contradiction of what you had just said earlier and snapped your gaze directly at Ellie’s. Ellie smirked and gave you a look telling you “I told you so”.

“I have seen none in this life that I saw better for Ellie.” You softly smiled as you looked at Joel, waiting for him to continue his sentence. “I know that I might have not made you feel like I liked you, especially when you were a kid. But I know that no one made Ellie happier than you. I know you’re a great person, y/n.”

“And I know that ya might not have felt like you’ve been accepted. But i’m always here to also stand as your father. Ya know that right? I’m not always showy. Even Ellie knows that.” Ellie chuckled as she nodded. “Just know that i’ve always treated you as my own, babygirl.” Joel nodded as he reached for your hand. Tightly gripping it. “Oh, come on now. Don’t be a sap.” Ellie interrupted as you all shared laughters again.

“I am genuinely happy though.” Joel nodded as he both looked at you and Ellie. “You both are perfect for eachother.”

After the meeting, you felt euphoric. You were so glad that Joel loved you. But then again, there were no reason for him not to. Your behavior when you were a child was nothing compared to now, he admired your growth as a person and you knew that you would influence Ellie greatly.

“I love you.” Ellie blurted out. You looked at her with a confused look.

“I love you too. What’s wrong?” You chuckled as you seemed taken aback by the sudden exchange of iloveyou’s.

“I don’t know. I just felt like I haven’t said that enough.” Ellie looked down at her feet, fiddling with her hands. You frowned as you took a step close to Ellie, pulling her in to your embrace. “I just feel like I have wasted all these years in my life being a coward instead of feeling your touch and love like how i’m doing right now.”

You sighed as you cupped Ellie’s cheeks. “It’s not only you to blame you know? I was dumb too.” You laughed as you felt Ellie’s body soften with your touch.

You were in that verge too. You wanted to blame yourself for not accepting yourself sooner but you were still glad that you did anyway. You were happy that even though in the most darkest times… Like the times that you would ignore her because you were jealous or because you just didn’t want to talk to her because you were having another one of your crisis. She was still there. And it was selfish, you knew that. But you were glad that she was still there for you to claim as yours.

You could’ve never found that love for Xavier. He was just one of your facades that you had to escape to find the true happiness within. It was Ellie. And it will always forever be Ellie.

In this society, Lesbians have been nothing but fetishized. Always stereotyped to the point that you were scared of the oppression you had to face.

And that’s the thing you have always been scared of, society. It always seemed like it was you vs. 7 billion people in this world. But the truth is? you’re not alone. And in fact, you’ll never be.

You wish you could’ve just been like Ellie, she came out as a free woman without giving a fuck. And she always had that fighting spirit within that you wish you could achieve. But you knew deep inside that she was also struggling as much as you.

If loving you wasn’t considered as a sin, I would’ve loved you to my full potential.

If loving you wasn’t a part of being condemned, I would’ve married you and took you to the aisle of my favorite church and prayed that we would be eternal.

If loving you wasn’t wrong, I would’ve realized that it was you all along. And I wouldn’t have to be with someone that I knew I didn’t want.

I’ve lived with two hearts, the other one was loving you and the other one was pretending that I didn’t.

Unpopular opinion (in the RWBY fandom ig): but I actually would've loved if the story leaned into abusive Blake and even abusive Yang.

I will forever prefer Ladybug and FreezerBurn, but I do think BumbleBY has a lot of story potential there. Having Yang and Blake falling for each other when they both represent aspects of their previous abusers is actually very interesting in my opinion.

Yang falling for Blake, a coward who runs away and abandons people, while she is healing from the neglect of her mother who abandoned her

Blake falling for Yang, a temperamental woman prone to bouts of anger, while recovering from Adam, who also had anger issues.

I would've loved to see them both maneuver through their complicated relationship. Them both being victims but having negative traits themselves, maybe even picking up traits from their abusers because that's all they know, and then unlearning those traits together and coming out stronger together because of it. That mixed in with the conflict that comes from Blake abandoning Yang and Yang getting angry with Blake would be a masterful opportunity for most writers.

It's actually a real shame because BumbleBY has so much potential to be one of my favorite WLW pairings ever. Unfortunately, I find a lot of sapphic relationships in media to be very bland and boring because they're portrayed so safely.

There's no conflict, external or internal, there's no meat. But if CRWBY weren't so afraid to just give their main cast negative and interesting character traits, this wouldn't be an issue.

I've said before that I don't mind if the story wanted to go into how Blake and Yang start replicating their more toxic traits when faced with trauma, especially with Blake's behaviour in V4 towards Sun mirroring how Adam treated her to the point that Arryn literally compared her behaviour to how abuse victims often become abusive themselves.

But the biggest issue here is also an issue that the show constantly struggles with. There's no consquences for this. Blake's behaviour towards Sun has no negative impact on their friendship, on Sun, or on Blake herself. She's not called out for what she did to him, she's called out for her pushing her friends away, which is not what should be talked about at that moment.

And Yang's anger issues were brought up, given "development", and then came right back but this time they're funny or Yang being a girlboss rather than having an actual flaw that needs to be handled if she's meant to be Blake's girlfriend; the girl who's abusive ex was volatile, violent and pushed her to abandon them because he was too much.

Literally V9 had Yang go red eyed and angry, and Blake reacting in fear, and it was played for laughs. That just shows you how the writers feel about this relationship and these characters.

The Wrong Side | Alfie Solomons x gn!reader

anonymous asked: Hiya! Could I please request the following for Alfie Solomons X gn!reader: "I was the one in pain! And you didn't give a fuck!"+"Did you ever think we would end up here?"+"For what it's worth, I'm proud of you" Maybe Alfie and reader had to break up because reader thought it was the best way to protect Alfie or something but they end up finding each other again after the war. (Just spit balling). Thank you again 😊! 🐍anon

summary: you and Alfie end your relationship when WW1 begins, but when it ends, you're drawn back to Camden, and what you find isn't exactly what you had expected.

tws: swearing, mentions of blood, mentions of war/violence

support your fanfic writers by reblogging what you read & enjoy

You had made a terrible mistake.

Being on the wrong side of the war, fighting against those you called friends, brothers, cousins all alike.

You didn't want to. But you were forced, as although you would have done anything not to go to war with those you loved, the Kaiser had had other plans; you were pressured into it, people saying that you would have been a coward if you didn't.

People on the streets spitting on you and forcing you to breaking point. You had to join up.

But your hands never stopped shaking. Every time generals and politicians said how proud they were of the soldiers, you wanted to weep; there was no pride to be found where you stood.

Calf deep in mud, blood, guts, lice and fuck knew what else. There was no pride, no glory, no victory in such a war. There never could be.

Your hands never stopped shaking.

You had given up everything to be forced to fight; your loving boyfriend back in Camden, your family, your beloved hometown.

Everything had disappeared from your grasp the second that you put your life into the hands of the Kaiser. Kaiser Wilhelm could scrub for the rest of his life, but like King George, he would never be able to get rid of all the blood.

You hoped it cracked and tugged at hairs on the backs of his hands, that it seeped down onto his arms and never ceased to stop flowing; you hoped that every time they washed their hands, the water would remain bright orange.

It had been years ago, now, but as you stood in Camden for the first time since nineteen thirteen, you noticed that your hands had stopped shaking.

You were only there for business, as after the war, you had managed to start your own up; you were only a small company, just selling scrap metal more than anything, but you made a good penny from it.

Someone in Camden had expressed interest in helping bring more money in, so you had jumped at the chance. For the first time since nineteen fourteen, your hands weren't shaking. You swallowed thickly, eyeing up the door before you; slowly, great caution, you rapped on the white wood.

"C'mon, then!"

You furrowed your brows, shaking your head before you allowed yourself into the office. It couldn't have been him. There was no way, you would have known, you would have-

"Hello, Jerry."

You looked up, face falling blank as your mouth sat agape; unable to say anything as your hands started to shake once more. You stammered and stuttered, searching for anything to say. But there was nothing.

Alfie.

He was grinning, eyebrows raised and that beautiful beard of his still neat and tidy. He looked more than pleased, excited as he rushed over to greet you. "Oi. That any way to greet an old friend?"

"Alfie…"

"Hello sunshine. You my one o'clock?"

Slowly, you nodded. "I can leave if-"

"If what? If it's too painful?" He scoffed, shaking his head. "Just tell me one thing, yeah?"

"Go on…"

"Why?" He chuckled. "Why'd you cut me off?"

"The war…" you whispered softly. "If they'd have found out that you were… seeing someone on the wrong side…"

Alfie frowned at that, hanging his head for a moment. "War fucked everythin' up, din'it? C'mon, have a sit down…"

You did as he said, awkwardly sitting opposite him at his desk, unsure of where to put your hands and where you were supposed to look. "Alfie… I was trying to protect you."

"Yeah, well, I was the one in pain! And you didn't give a fuck!" He snapped, hitting his hands against the solid oak. "Did ya? Huh? You fuckin' Jerries is all the same! Fuckin' welcome us with open arms then fucking stab us in the fucking back!"

"Alfred."

"Nah, nah, nah," he huffed. "You don't get to play that card with me no more, sunshine. Y'know me mum was worried sick about you! She thought you'd fuckin' dropped dead! She thought we were gonna get married!"

"It was to protect you," you insisted. "Please… you're scaring me, Alfie."

Immediately, he sat back in his chair, stroking his beard gently as he sighed heavily and shook his head. "I never stopped thinkin' about you. Never… ain't much, but for what it's worth, I'm proud of you… all the shit you did, buildin' a business and all that shit… I'm proud."

"Is that why you invited me here?" You asked softly.

Slowly, Alfie shook his head. "I fuckin' wish, but no. I saw you work with scrap metal… we get plenty."

"I did love you," you admitted quietly. "A fucking lot. Always worried I'd… always worried I'd meet you on No Man's Land… they stationed me at Osowiec…"

"I wasn't far," he whispered. "We saw what happened."

"Alfie…" you cleared your throat. "I'd give anything to fix what we had before… but I'm not the same as I was back then… I've seen things, done things, that no one should ever have to hear about…"

"That makes two of us… two makes a pair, don't it?"

"I guess it does."

"Then be me other shoe," he said softly. "I'm fuckin' sittin' in this office in agony waitin' around for you and alright, alright, I smaller a bit, and I'm sorry, but… fuck. I missed you. Seein' you sat there all fuckin' good lookin' like always… I really missed you."

You cracked a small smile. "Did you ever think we would end up here?"

Alfie dared to laugh. "The war was a fuckin' surprise."

"Archduke gets shot, we break up," you laughed quietly. "A treaty gets signed and we… what? Make a treaty of our own?"

"Why not? I can write just as fuckin' well as they lot did in Versailles," he was getting more playful, more relaxed. "So… you up for it?"

You nodded. "I don't see the harm in it, and I can always move business here."

"Camden ain't like you remember it," he sighed. "But I'll protect you."

top 5 moments from the show that would result in rizzles being canon (if the writers weren't cowards)

Ok this is a good one; let me think. 🤔

1) when Jane shoots herself in 1x10. Could have totally had a bedside love confession from Maura. This would have been cute.

2) when Jane says to Maura, “and you don’t wanna sleep with me. Do you…?” That one is more lighthearted but still could have been cute as well.

3) when Ian left. Jane could have been all strong and sweet and said “I know he left but I’m right here. I’ve always been right here.” 😭

4) when Maura had her sweat lodge realization about Jane in season 5. They were so close. I had a split second where I thought it might happen.

5) when Maura gets mad at Jane for getting encrypted cameras for the house. I keep going back to this plot, I know, but it is just rife with character development from so many angles. Jane could have fought back with something like, “I can’t fucking lose you, Maura. I just can’t do it. I love you too much. So you’re gonna give me this one thing.” 🫦

There are SO MANY more. But these are probably my favorites if I had to nail down five.

[heartsick-honeybee]

Okay. Now I'm fucking mad.

But since you keep blocking me let me just air this out.

You can call me immature all you want but let's get some things straight

First off I never said a fucking word to you or about you before you blocked me. And then you unblock me to send me this crap and block me again, okay

Second off, she NEVER ONCE USED YOUR NAME. You made a PUBLIC POST with her name on it. And EVEN when she DEFENDED herself she STILL didn't use your name.

In addition as far as your very public "server" comment. Yeah, pretty sure you mean me. And again. I didn't say any names. Presuming I meant you kind of seems like guilt to me. Particular as I in fact didn't SOLEY mean you.

That day YOU weren't the one the initial Convo was even about.

That's guilt.

But I digress.

You tell me not to insinuate something and on the same breathe apparently are going to start a war because she defended herself WITHOUT even using your name? That's fucking cute.

Oh and it's also cute how you wrote me but not her.

Let's get this straight.

She is the nicest fucking person I've met in my life.

She is sweet and kind and mild and just doesn't have it to stand up for herself the way is needed here.

I, on the other hand am not. I have no such reservations. I'm a bitch. You chose the wrong one of us to write. ESPECIALLY before blocking because I'm going to say my fucking piece and if you would rather have it public than private than then be my fucking guest.

"I'm going to screenshot this for my benefit"

But not actually have that conversation? Just so you can show people you wrote me for the clout and woah is me? Clout this.

Words can be misread, actions aren't misread.

I saw that post and that person said nothing that wasn't kind about EITHER if you. You did not have to start shit.

Especially something about her not supporting other writers? That's funny considering you blocked her first.

As far as you not reading her shit that's also funny since you had it bookmarkes on A03 before she came to Tumblr.

The fact you'd blatantly have 1500+ followers and use your popularity with them to publically post lies against someone who's new here to the point she's being bullied off the site is absolute fucking bullshit.

"You're misreading my tone. I'm offended you'd insinuate "

IT IS BULLYING. THIS IS BLATANTLY BULLYING. DO YOU NOT KNOW WHAT BULLYING IS?

And to someone who won't defend themselves?! That post she put is hardly even a defense. And the fact you can publically post WITH HER NAME trying to play the victim and talking shit and yet start shit over what little she did to defend herself, absolutely fuck you.

Yes you're right, I am 32. I am too old for this shit. I am too old for assholes like you who think growing-up means condoning 16yr old level bullying without saying a word because apparently being an adult means ignoring it.

Absolutely not. Being an adult means you shouldn't fucking be doing it and I am SURELY going to call you out on your shit if you think it's so cute to play these games.

You really wanted to say something, you want to write me, you write me and we talk inbox. You wanted to be a coward and get your little bit in and block me, don't blame me for everyone seeing your dirty laundry, this is what you wanted.

Here's a new thought. Instead of lying to your fans to play the victim here why don't you tell them the truth.

All of this started before she ever said a single word to or about you.

All of this started BEFORE SHE EVEN JOINED TUMBLR.

But you don't want to include that part do you Finnie?

I AM KINDLY RELYING ON SOME MUTUAL TO SCREENSHOT THIS AND SEND IT TO HER since she only unblocks when it's convenient. THANKS.

New Edit:

I took this down because Finnie talked to me personally and asked if we could mutually let this drop, and we agreed. Despite the fact I only posted this one thing and they, throughout the time made SEVERAL harmful post even publically calling us names and acting like WE bullied YOU, But hey, we agreed anyway. And this post has been taken down for a few weeks and no further have been made... Only for them to talk shit non-stop this entire fucking time.

I am sick of this.

I am absolutely sick of your gaslighting victim playing lying bullshit.

You're such a goddamned narcissist.

You and your little circlejerk of friends that claim youd "NEVER BULLY ANYONE" even while you're blatantly making public posts calling someone a vile cunt is ridiculous. You can keep patting eachother in the back with your fucking pity party bullshit.

You literally bullied her into deleting her account.

And yes, telling harmful lies about how someone is "being mean to you for no reason" after you blatantly outted their name publically for no other reason than YOUR OWN GODDAMNED PARANOIA is shit.

Because you DECIDED that some fucking rando no one ever heard of literally copy pasting on AO3 MUST mean YOU.

What the ABSOLUTE fuck is wrong with you?!

And no, I'm not down to play with this.

If you're reading this and your first thoughts are

"Omg it's so childish to speak up, being an adult is accepting bullying" then you can absolutely suck my dick and choke on it.

Your mentality is the problem with the world.

Being an adult is knowing when to speak up against injustice.

And anyone who's ignorant enough to think I'm full of shit for no other reason than I am angry and speaking crass need to revaluate their life and values..

Yes I am mad. Someone should be.

If you're stupid enough to believe a narcissist because they're playing stupid and throwing a tantrum, do PLEASE block me. The fact the majority of you people automatically took their side without even ASKING Caesaria a goddamned word despite having supposedly been fans says enough to me.

You don't care what the truth is, CLEARLY, or your have gone out of your way to talk to HER and get both sides.

You made up your mind from the first moment because you have bias towards a narcissistic disgusting excuse for an individual who's playing you all like a flute.

Or for a few of you who commented on this, because you're the same type of person and condemning them while doing the same shit makes you look bad, right?

Fuck. You.

On the bright side since Caesaria deleted her account, I can finally speak my mind. She didn't want to cause more uproar.

I on the other hand am sick of seeing this one sided bullshit.

Yes. Of course you privately inboxed us privately asking us to delete our side meanwhile being very vocal on your end to make everything completely one sided. You must manipulate people a lot, huh?

I would love to note.

In the original post I didn't talk shit.. I didn't do anything but state the facts.

Now? Now yeah, I'm being a cunt. After all, you publically called me one in your post I may as well make SOMETHING you said have a shred of truth, right? You're fucking welcome. 🩷

Oh and one more thing.

"inb4" the whole "you're making enemies" thing...

Any person who is such a terrible human being as to be a part of this crap is NO ONE I'd ever want to associate with at my WORST of days.

All I'm doing is causing a group of gross people out themselves upfront.

Getting rid of shitty people in mass is much less problematic than ending up dealing with them individually in the long run anyway.

Good riddance.
