#I won’t be fought

[orcaog]

Hi, I’m Ellie, I’m Australian, and I’m qualified to give slightly obscure Australian Mountain Ghoul Headcanons

⋆ He was in the red house at school but despised it and wanted to be in the green house because it was his favourite colour.

⋆ Spent hours in the Bunnings plant section just wandering around. Would immediately run the other way when the sprinkler system/hose would get anywhere near him.

⋆ Can’t for the life of him do the Nutbush. Is sufficient at other common school formal/party dances like the Macarena.

⋆ Hates to watch Footy, likes to play Footy. Same thing for Cricket. (He is also slammed for not following a Footy team, so he lies and tells people he goes for whoever is currently winning).

⋆ The guy who stands beside the barbecue with one hand in his weird khaki cargo shorts and tongs in one hand at family gatherings during the summer cooking the sausages. Bonus points if the event is Christmas, Boxing Day, Australia Day. More points if there’s at least four children who may or may not be related to him running around and occasionally running up to him to ask if the food is done.

⋆ Weird patterned shirts and thongs at the beach kinda guy. Stands there with a drink of some kind until begged to come into the water (he will dramatically sigh, say “Ah well, if I must” then come in. He loves going in the water but needs the validation that comes from being asked to go in).

⋆ Says the following things ironically: crikey, tell him he’s dreaming, she’ll be right, good on ya mate.

⋆ Leaves baskets of lemons from his very successful tree on the front lawn for people to take for free (he has too many).

⋆ A big fan of Tim tams. Loves meat pies from some local corner store. Makes pavlovas with berries from his own garden.

⋆ Probably lives out woop woop nowhere, on some fun farm in the hills. Has lots of cows. A goat. Sheep. A random cat that showed up one day and became the farm cat because he fed it.

That’s all. Let me know if you need clarification on things. Have a great day :)

absolutely love mothwing but the concept of mothstar is so utterly bleak to me.

she’s a cat who has already walked the path of a warrior to the point of being awarded her full name, and yet still yearned to be a healer in her heart. she was denied the post solely due to her heritage, not to be permitted unless starclan blessed her with a sign. it was not starclan who provided this holy signal but her brother, and despite the stress, guilt, and trickery which stemmed from the false omen she still finally got to be a healer as she had always dreamed. fully committed to her post, she was giving the practice her all despite everything and it shows. you could tell this was her true passion. when it got out she was not appointed by starclan, she was stripped of her title in an instant. it didn’t matter how loyal and dedicated and skilled she was, she’s just a faithless half-clan loner to them. always reduced back to being a warrior like a goddamn punishment. when she finally regained her post due to a genuine sign, it only lasted a few seasons before the kin and then the imposter took turns tearing riverclan apart. she was exiled, apparently not even fit to be a warrior this time although shadowclan thankfully took her in and let her work as their healer. still, all mothwing wanted to be was *riverclan’s healer.* that is literally all she wanted her entire life and she has had to fight every pawstep of the way to cling onto a role most cats overlook entirely in the first place.

and now she’s forced to leave it all behind once again with not even a moment to fully settle. temporarily sure, but if she returns and is made to become mothstar? once more giving up her passion for the good of riverclan, but this time it’s permanent. she’s already over eleven years old, and now with nine more lives she’ll be spending each and every one as a warrior. all the current cats in her clan will likely die before she does, and the ones which come in their place will only *ever* know mothstar, the warrior, the leader of riverclan. not mothwing, the healer, the thing she committed to through thick and thin when her dedication to the clan was called into near constant question over things out of her control. and when mothwing finally, FINALLY dies, it will be as mothstar. she will give the leader which succeeds her a life, that too will be as mothstar, a life bestowed for leadership and not for healing. but it never was about what she truly desires, only what others thought best.

this is just my opinion of course formed over all we know about her and the several arcs she’s featured in but dude. Dude.

Hello Elves,

The kitchen is behind on lunch orders.

Somehow, several of the ovens have been frozen shut, and we are working on fixing the problem.

On a completely unrelated note, if you see Jack Frost walking around, please tell me so I can beat him with a staff- Sorry, I mean inform Santa of his visit.

Yours, Bernard

Something that bugs me about a lot of writing advice is the assumption that writing is linear and therefore a writer’s skill will improve and improve and improve.

This is not true.

There are days when the words don’t come, when the “great writing tip” that saved a previous work becomes claustrophobic in a current work, when everything seems more difficult than it used to even though nothing on the outside has changed.

Yes, some of this is higher expectations as we improve or try more ambitious works.

And some of it is just being a writer who, like everyone else, has good days and bad days.

It’s okay.

Writing is an art.

And art isn’t linear.

…rewatched this to send it to a friend. THIS is how I want someone I love to look at me. Not those… “heated gazes” or whatever that get romanticized. Those make my skin just…feel utterly awful. Like I’m an object to be consumed or controlled or locked up in a glass case to be idolized or paraded around.

This…doesn’t do that. This is quite simply adoration and respect. Seeing someone as human and worthy of being cherished.

It’s such a short clip. But it’s a better love story than 99.999999999% of media.

(More thoughts and drafting! Some weird formatting I know but it was all one block in my notes)

Emma is doing just fine. Average. It’s really not so bad.

She’s just been dealing with a lot of change. And with too many things not changing.

Which is… an odd thing to struggle with.

Because she likes change. Daunting challenges. The unpredictable. Doing new things every day and never being scared of them. And she likes independence.

She had thought so, at least.

After the show, she had been hit in the face with just how… isolated she was. She had only had two friends before the first season, but she had left them behind. Her mother wasn’t doing the best, and she didn’t have any nearby family.

She found herself laying in her bed in the middle of the day most of the time, scrolling through her contacts and old conversations.

Or scrolling through her comments on TikTok.

A few weeks ago, she had tried some stunt involving a motorcycle and an inflatable pool. She probably wouldn’t have messed it up if her hands weren’t trembling.

(She had forgot to check the breaks, and wasn’t sure if they were working.)

(They were.)

The blood dripping down her face and the gash in her lip didn’t sting as much as it did watching the video.

She looked ridiculous, and she probably always did. It was better when she had someone else to do it with. Maybe she was losing her touch.

She didn’t post the video.

She turned back to dancing instead, which did feel less embarassing, despite the constant mocking feedback. Sure, the jokes were “funny”, but she didn’t care about any of it. She didn’t feel the rush, she wasn’t planning every day, and she wasn’t known or loved for anything.

Except for what she lost.

And, the show, to an extent.

-Ugh, she misses the show. She shouldn’t, but as stupid as it sounds, she really did. She missed doing crazy things and talking to people. Having a chance of winning. Beating everyone. Being cheered on. It wasn’t always great, but at least it was something. She misses doing something.

And she really misses Bowie. She missed Bowie, but she knows better than anyone that she can’t go back to that. They just- have better things to do now. He probably does.

He’s got Raj- which is great! And she’s happy for him! She’s happy for everyone. For Wayne, however he’s doing, for Julia, despite everything.

And Caleb. For having Priya.

Emma is jealous that Bowie gets to have someone.

Emma is jealous that everyone else gets to have someone.

Emma is jealous that, unlike everyone else, winning the show probably wouldn’t have made her any happier.

She isn’t sure what would.

Billy came out to Steve while they are on drugs on the bathroom floor at Starcourt. They had just escaped from the Russian base under the mall floors.

They were still a tiny bit high from the truth serum and telling each other secrets.

Steve said something about how he wished that they had become friends sooner. Which prompts Billy tell him that he wished Steve would’ve looked at him the way he still looks at Nancy.

Steve is taken back and a smidge disgusted and asks why he would ever say anything like that

Billy didn’t seem disappointed, like he already knew what Steve’s reaction would be. “I just wanted you to know,” he mumbled pushing himself off the bathroom floor.

I was never really fond of Wonder Woman comics as an adaptation of mythology and this is no exception. So basically Darkside is now a child (for reasons I don’t care to look up) and the only way he can age faster is if he kills demigods and consumes their essence.

First of all, why the fuck would Perseus be in Wall Street? No scratch that, what the fuck is he doing in America? I’ve talked about this before but what is it with modern adaptations placing these Greek characters in America? I know Greece isn’t what it used to but why America of all places? Also where the fuck is Andromeda? He wouldn’t be so bored if he has a hot wife to come home to.

[dazais-guardian-angel]

it’s sad that a lot of people truly don’t realize how incredibly hard it is for Dazai to make the choice to do things the way he does now in his new lifestyle, every single day. Healing and changing your way of doing things to heal is incredibly hard; it is an active choice you are making at every moment, fighting uphill, because it doesn’t come naturally like it does for anyone who hasn’t been through trauma and/or is dealing with mental illness. It’s hard, and so many days it’d be easier to just give up and revert back to old habits. But Dazai almost never has, even when constantly surrounded by toxic influences that remind him of his old life, and he is so incredibly strong for that.
