Love, Dhes

Parker,

It's unfair how time with you feels so short. How the last 10 years have felt like no time at all. I like to think there are other versions of us out there, somewhere. Maybe in another timeline, another universe. I like to think we find each other no matter where we are or what we're doing. That we're together and happy and I get to love you in a dozen different lifetimes. That's what I hope, anyway. And I hope when this lifetime ends, we get to start over and do it all again. Because once just isn't enough. Not for me. Not with you.

I hope the next 10 years pass slower.

Love, Dhes

so i'm trying to come to terms with starship iris ending, y'know, as one does when there's a project that you auditioned for on a whim as a total amateur, eight years and a lifetime ago, that is finally coming to a close, and i am really truly trying not to get sappy about it. but.

in another universe, there is no ishani kanetkar. she was born with this show, for this show, and it's still a little unbelievable to me that there are people i've never met who know who she is. it's even wilder that there are people i HAVE met who want her, this person who has never been fully real but has always still been me, to help them tell their own stories.

i recorded the pilot episode on my wired earbuds' built-in microphone, in a bedroom in my grandparents' home in mumbai. those grandparents are gone; that house of my memory too. but every time i come back to this show, i remember sitting on the bed of the small room that once belonged to my great-aunt, trying and failing to find a scrap of quiet so that kay grisham could tell violet liu it would all be okay.

so maybe some of the things i'm feeling are for the end of a story, but i think some of them are also for the ishani who started telling it, who can't go back. some of them are for ishani kanetkar, this ephemeral self and not-self, whose own time is one day going to be over. and some of them are just for me, now, who looks forward to a future with other projects and other people but not this project, with these people, and is sad to say goodbye. i hope i can do my part to give it a truly phenomenal send-off.

I finished reading 4 books from Earth's Children series. The last three were really hard to read. After finishing Plains of Passage, I have come to really appreciate Clan of the Cave Bear as a standalone. I miss all the Neanderthals and Ayla's character arc. Gotta do some fanart!

PS. I MISS IZA! Best character in the series.

@wolfstarmicrofic September 20 - prompt 20: Centaur [word count 716]

It had been the first thing James had said on the train that September 1st: the now-renown Marauders couldn’t go their whole second year at Hogwarts without setting foot in the Forbidden Forest. So there they were, one cold October night, sneaking through the trees, their wands lighting the path.

“Okay, we’ve seen it, can we go back now?” Peter whispered.

“Come on Pete, where’s your sense of adventure?” James asked.

“In my bed as I should be,” Peter mumbled. “And this path is too narrow.”

“There’s a clearing a bit ahead,” Remus said distractedly.

As soon as the words left his mouth, he felt the stare of his friends and froze. He had missed them so much over that first summer apart he was growing careless around them. No need for them to know the wolf’s nose could detect a place in a forest from miles away. No need for him to lose the only friends he had ever had once they found out he was a monster.

“Remus darling,” James smirked. “Have you been exploring the Forest without us?”

“Of course not, I’m from Wales, I know about forests,” Remus answered quickly. “Come on, let’s go.”

He sat out again, looking away from Sirius who was detailing him with a piercing gaze. And after a couple of minutes, there it was, the beautiful clearing with a glorious view of the starry sky, the moon reflecting itself in the pond. Beautiful, and peaceful and clearly occupied by the figure leaning over the pond.

“It’s a Centaur!” James whispered way too loud.

Remus cringed as the Centaur looked up at them.

“That I am, James Fleamont Potter,” he smiled benevolently.

“You know my name?”

“My people have been blessed with the gifts of Prophecy and Intuition so yes, I know all your names. Mine is Firenze.”

“Like the Italian town?” Sirius blurted out, and Remus cringed even more.

“Who knows, Sirius Orion Black,” Firenze smiled. “Maybe the town is named after me. Both Past and Future are so complicated for you humans after all.”

“So you could tell us our future?” Peter asked.

“I’m so sorry, sir,” Remus clamped his hand on Peter’s mouth. “We’ll leave you be, sorry again for bothering you.”

“You’re not bothering me, Remus John Lupin,” Firenze chuckled, then he turned to Peter. “I am not allowed to tell you your future, Peter Edmund Pettigrew, but I could offer you a sentence to accompany you through life. It may help you, or not, you may never know its significance or realise it too late. Would you like that?”

As the others nodded, Remus shook his head vigorously. However vague, he didn’t want any sentence telling him how shitty his life would be.

“Sirius Orion Black,” Firenze fixed his gaze on Sirius. “Remember that the Walpurgisnacht won’t devour the heart in the end, nor will it engulf the light.”

Sirius shivered, his hand reaching out to clutch Remus’s as the Centaur turned to Peter.

“Peter Edmund Pettigrew. Remember that fear can save as well as destroy, as the tiniest animal like the termite can destroy a whole wooden house.”

Peter frowned and Firenze turned to James, who was almost bouncing with excitement.

“James Fleamont Potter. Always remember to get up with your hands full,” the Centaur seemed to linger on James’s confused face, then gracefully inclined his head. “And now I shall bid you good night, young humans.”

As Remus made to follow his friends away from the clearing, he turned around one last time to look back at the Centaur.

“Remus John Lupin,” Firenze smiled.

“I don’t want to know my future.”

“I know. I just want you to know you will always be welcome under these trees, despite what you think.”

Remus swallowed, looking deep into those clear eyes.

“You… You know?” his voice was strangled.

“We always know our own. You have found some good friends, Remus John Lupin, cherish them. And remember that even now, the star always needs the moon.”

Feeling his cheeks heat up, Remus nodded and ran after the others. When he had caught up with them, Sirius slid his hand in his again.

“You were limping the other day, I don’t want you to fall,” he said.

“Thank you,” Remus answered, his heart beating faster.

Do you think there’s a chance OPLA will make non canonical ships into canon? I saw people noticing zo/lu got a lot more obsessed with each other scenes together and said it’s possible. Or mish/anks with how the actor openly supports the ships, with likes, comments, being open to fan bringing it up. What do you think?

Nah 😭 First things first, I HIGHLY doubt our dearest (sarcastically) (derogatory) Net*lix is going to make queer couples if it's not necessary. We're lucky we didn't get the show canceled with the amount of sapphic energy Nami and Kaya had going on, honestly. Two girls holding hands is enough to get a show canceled on that platform. And if they do make queer couples canon they're not going to be between the main characters, keeping in mind how much they're risking doing so.

And also,, I don't want any of the ships to be canon, either. The whole point is to not make romance between the straw hats in canon so it doesn't take the spotlight of their development and you view their dynamics however you want. I'd be annoyed if something as awesome as the next arcs that are to come get sidelined because Net*lix wanted romance. I mean, I wouldn't be annoyed if they made Namivivi canon or at least confirm some main characters to be queer, but it just feels like they'd do it to put their "we are so woke and cool we made your favorite character LGBT" pin and then... Do nothing about it later. As per side characters, idk, maybe there are some non-canon couples here and there and I don't really care but I wouldn't want it to be with the main characters. Especially with Luffy. Do not touch Luffy.

Luffy has such deep bonds with all characters in different ways, and you can see them as romantic, but making it canon just takes away that magic by putting a label on his feelings, something that I feel he wouldn't even do.

Worst case scenario they make Vivi x Koza or Zoro x Nami canon because if Net*lix doesn't have its daily unnecessary romance in shows it dies or smth.

So I don't think it's happening and I don't even want it to happen. The next arcs are so damn good and I really don't want to have to deal with ship wars or shit like that next season.

We need to kill the guy who wrote the child scene in in book 7 because it is gating people from enjoying one of the coolest fe villains of all time.

I hate this common fandom headcanon of "if Merlin had told Morgana about his magic she wouldn't have turned dark" for countless reasons but the worst really gotta be the underlying "if only the man had deigned himself to help her, she would've made better choices uwu" like oh my god let women have some goddamn agency even if that agency manifests as bad choices I am begging

I woke up to this and am really thinking about this

[words-be-upon-ye]

There are a couple tropes I really love in the space of Miraculous Ladybug fan works, but quite possibly my favorite is when the miraculous holders just get creature from using their powers.

Like yeah, I would say that hosting the power of an abstract concept given sentience, that got shoved into the shape of an animal and bound to a piece of jewelry, would kinda mess with your body a bit.

The little bit of this we get in canon is basically that Adrien loves being a cat and the whole Tikki munches incident.

But I love it when people give them ears and wings and tails, give them eyes that aren't quite human anymore. Fuck with their gender and their sense of body. Sometimes it's body horror, sometimes it's just aesthetic. Love it either way.

I just think it's so fun, a lot of the time it's combined with the like "when a holder and the kawami really respect and bond with each other there's nothing that can be done except having magic bleed into the holder" I think that's fun, but also just making the animal of the kwami a bigger deal is fun. Like if you're going to make it a ladybug you might as well give her wings and antenna and mirrored eyes.

Just spent several minutes agonizing over the timeline of Accidental Siblings and tweaked parts of my fic yet again to match the canonical timeline better
