You really should catch up on Bridgerton. Whatever Cressida and Eloise got going on is hella fruity.

Yep they've roped me back in

Okay but what if the Good King wasn't supposed to be the Good King, he was just a nice Prince (with no affiliation with the story of Snow White) the Evil Queen fell in love with and when they got married he became the Good King just to follow the fucked up rules of Ever After/Fairy Tales

King Auspicious Charming (the grandpa of Daring Dexter and Darling) was not a Charming, he was the new Siegfried but his true love came to be a Charming Princess (Alluring) and when he married her they became the new progenitors of the Charming dynasty - so your name and your title may change depending on who you marry and what role they have

Also, princes and princesses (that don't belong to a particular tale or family, I guess) seem like they have a bit more of freedom to me. Dexter said you never know when you'll need a prince, mainly because there are a lot of princesses, so there are a lot of "general" princes that are there to save the day when needed (or to be assigned by Grimm as a new hero)(Apple's dad was not a hero nor a Knight, she said it herself - he was just handsome and regal and was in the right place at the right time to kiss Snow White)(not casually, of course, but you get it)

No one can make me believe that the Good King too wasn't just a prince that happened to be in the "right" place at the "right" time and got his title just because he fell in love and married an Evil Queen - at least before everything went downhill (or maybe he still loves her, but that's an angst I will maybe talk about in another post)

Ok this is a bit of rant but I feel like at least on Tumblr I won't be harassed or scrutinised for liking The Acolyte.

But honestly, with all of the news floating around about The Acolyte being cancelled (although I still haven't seen an official statement from Disney, but apparently they've taken The Acolyte merch off their store page), it's made me realise how toxic the Star Wars fandom can be (I mean I already knew, just look at the responses to the prequels and sequels). Sure, I understand everyone doesn't have to like everything that gets produced, but as someone who f**cking LOVED this show (especially Master Sol) it's so disheartening to see how loudly everyone is cheering about the show being cancelled and reinforcing that toxic behaviour I have seen both on social media, and especially in swtor general chats (don't even get me started about that) of people straight up bullying and harassing people who like the show. Actually I would like the mention that on swtor I did make a joke that there were a few people on the fleet with the same name so qouted "the power of many", and was told to "shut my stars wars wh*re mouth".

Also, shoutout to that one person I see on the Star Forge swtor server whose name is The Acolyte who wears Mae's armour, whether you're doing it to rile people up or because you want to publicly show your love for the show, I respect you big time.

I know there are many people out there who know how it feels to be a fan of an unpopular fandom but it's just so disheartening to see how loudly aggressive the hate towards The Acolyte and those who genuinely enjoyed it is. I have no doubt those who so loudly protested it will see this as a huge win (ironically "the power of many" I guess), and fine, if enough people don't like it I get it that's just how it is, but I really hope this won't be taken as the opportunity to essentially 'prove' to people who genuinely enjoyed The Acolyte that it was an 'objectively bad show' and they are wrong for liking it.

Lastly, I find it ironic that to those who so loudy hated the show but also were practically begging to learn more of Darth Plagueis the Wise have now become victims of their own hubris so we're likely never going to see more of his story, good job.

Anyway rant over, point is, I'll still keep rewatching The Acolyte and continue writing my Master Sol fic but it's a shame that if it is officially true that the show has been cancelled we'll never get to see what happens with Darth Plagueis, Qimir and Osha (that last scene was fantastic btw) and Mae, so I guess like most things we'll keep it going with fics and fanart in the nice little void corner of the internet <3

Bluhhhhhhhh for the last two days I have been repeatedly trying to order a bunch of needed items for a school charity event that my job sponsors and parts of the order keep getting cancelled/need to be re-ordered after my accounts repeatedly get flagged because the cost and quantities are so high 😭

Bread and Eggs

(NOT A PR0MPT)

******

It started with the ringing of Villain’s phone. He wasn’t surprised to see Hero’s name pop up. He admired the too-small circle with her picture on it. It was impossible to tell by looking at the emblem, but Villain knew it was a picture from their first date.

To think it had been five years ago...

Villain’s picture on Hero’s phone had been a more recent photo, one from their engagement. An image of him kneeling with the classic black velvety case. It was warm the day of their engagement- Villain didn’t dare propose on a cold day; it would have led to an obvious refusal.

He used to joke that warmth was the only reason Hero even liked him. “You scorn me constantly,” Villain would tease. “You only like me because of the heat I so generously produce.”

“As if you have any control over it! You can’t help that you’re so warm, but it is definitely a plus,” she would ultimately agree.

Now, they were married- and, oh, hadn’t it been a dream? Looking for homes, buying a home, getting groceries, coming home to one another, holding each other at the end of the day. It was all Villain wanted in life, and for so long, it seemed impossible. Yet, here they were; her joyful face was beaming at his under the name ‘Love of my life’.

Answering the phone, Villain jokingly began, “Yes, honey, I remembered to get the bread and eggs.”

The voice that answered wasn’t Hero’s.

vent incoming:

got my grades back for my courses last semester and most of it was to be expected, mostly A's, maybe an A-, etc. but i honestly can't get over the fact that my independent study (the buddy cole documentary) was for some reason given a B. like sure getting a B isn't bad per se, I usually get at least one B every semester and i honestly don't really care about what my exact gpa is as long as i can graduate, but come on. this school put me through months of psychological torment over this project and didn't even have the nerve to give me a B+??? i'm still coping with the self-doubt they forced on me and this bullshit is not helping!!

So I noticed a parallel between one of Pearl's lines and one of Iris's:

Pearl: I... I really am useless! I didn't even manage to burn the letter properly as my mother had asked of me... Such a simple thing... And I couldn't even do it right...

Iris: But I couldn't get you to give it back... I failed at something even as simple as that. Six months passed and I still couldn't get it back from you.

And it just got me thinking, again, about how crucial they are to each other's development and healing after the events of BttT. Like, yes, Pearl is surrounded by people who love and care for her, but none of them really understand what it's like to have loved, and to keep loving, someone who has wronged others close to you. None of them understand what it's like to feel guilty to have failed that person, even when you know you shouldn't have helped them, nor what it's like to carry these conflicted feelings of love and guilt with you in silence for the rest of time because you can't talk about it. That person was evil. They're a monster. You love them, but you shouldn't. No one understands... except Iris.

Iris, who would have given her life for Phoenix but still feels guilty over failing Dahlia. Iris, who's lived most of her life knowing the sins of Dahlia's past but still says she loves her the moment she's allowed to speak of her. Iris, whose first instinct after her failure was to hide herself away from everyone who loved her, just like Pearl's was. Iris, who can look at Pearl and see so much of herself reflected back that she understands implicitly what it's like. How much pain Pearl is truly carrying with her. How much unspoken grief.

And Iris, who can look at Pearl and see how senseless it really is, yet how inevitable, and hold her through her sorrow while also gradually letting go of her own misplaced guilt because she sees now, truly, how that helps no one and hurts everyone. I'm thinking about Iris and Pearl, who were sisters before they even knew each other and are so alike in so many tiny, significant ways that it's nothing short of a miracle, and I'm thinking about how they're the last pieces of a broken family, but they make the strongest link. I'm thinking about Iris and Pearl.
