[garaks-padded-bra]

smth abt ziyal is when I'm rewatching those cringy moments with her and garak, they canonically aren't flirting the cardassian way. They are so cordial and polite to each other that it's so plain that at the very least garak has no romantic intentions towards her. He treats her like how he treats o'brien. He has more chemistry with odo

I used to be of the opinion on my first watch that the ziyal garak thing never should have happened (and it definitely could have been handled differently - sometimes it felt like different writers had different intentions with their dynamic and it got weird)

And to preface there was DEFINITELY homophobia involved in the doylist explanation for why garak got ( to what the average viewer saw as) a young female love interest

But one thing people don't tend to realise is that its stated QUITE plainly that garak doesn't return her feelings. He definitely didn't push her away hard enough, but he's a bit of a scumbag who prioritised having any sort of positive relationship with a cardassian over telling her to fuck off. (I also imagine he wanted to spare her feelings)

I think Garak could realise (bad dad squad) that Ziyals views on men (especially older cardassian men) was a very fragile topic to be handled and she was pretty much constantly rejected by her kind - which definitely lended itself to letting her kiss him, but he did outright tell her he didn't like her that way, so I'm not mad.

Ziyal is jumbled all the way up. Thank you Dukat. And Garak clearly thinks it's really funny to not fully dispel the rumour so he can deal immense psychic damage to her father.

They really aren't flirting the cardassian way - like ever - but I don't think that's to say Ziyal doesn't understand cardassian flirting. She is absolutely like her father in the sense that she manipulates kira into hanging out with her dad just because she wants them to get along - despite knowing Kiras genuine aggression doesn't match up with Dukats flirtatious kind. Ziyal is a good person but she is also related to Dukat and by God will she manipulate

One thing I will patently disagree with is the comparison to how garak treats O'brien (in regards to the general sexlessness).

That is wrong. Have you seen empok nor. Garak absolutely has a weird one sided homoerotic jealously thing with O'brien. It's O'brien who wants him shot out an airlock. That's on garak.

OPEN STARTER: "TRAIN ABOUT IT?"

TW: blood, injury

A lot has happened in Theo's life recently, and he doesn't exactly know how to deal with the weight of all of it. He can't exactly do anything he wants to do without worrying his friends and family, so he has to look for other ways to cope with the pressure and stress.

Some things good, most bad. His mother found him again, and her sister pierced his hand with her spear. His brother is doing something horrible and won't tell him what's going on or let him help. His dad is worried because he talked to his grandpa. He's having conflicted feelings about his two friends, he wants to love them and let them love him but recent events showed him it's not safe for him to settle down right now.

So he took Commodus's advice; he's training about it. Even though he's got a still-healing gaping hole in his left hand, and he's left handed, the bandages cover it enough for the sword in his hand not to get damaged by his blood. It's not even bleeding anymore- the bandages are there for general support.

You find him in a clearing in the forest, he's set up around twenty training dummies for himself, his left hand gripping his sword so hard his knuckles are white. He is currently doing a mock sequence consisting of slashing and stabbing at a dummy and moving on to the next, seeing how many he can massacre within a short period of time.

You’re quiet, what are you up to?

I am crocheting and watching the little ones be adorable.

[rowanfedorov-2709]

This site is so interesting. I've never seen people draw like this. I never seen most anything on this site.

I mean sure back at home kids would draw but it was always seen as something only for little girls. I remember sneaking off to the lake to draw, where my father would never check.

even here on base there's a few people here who can draw, they don't care much for me but I always appreciate their drawing in passing. I've overheard them say it keeps them sane during all this.

I wish I could just tell them it's cool they're able to do that but whenever I speak everyone seems to groan and leave. i guess I ask to many questions.

it doesn't matter. fuck them.

[Missing]

*It’s nearly lunchtime and Wysper has yet to appear. He often got to camp very early and would greet his friends and acquaintances, help out with any chores, or help set up the archery practice. No signs of him being sick either, considering his siblings would have said so on the way there. It seems more quiet with Wysper gone. Too quiet.

Then you hear a sharp and distressed neigh from above. You see Porsche, Wysper’s pegasus, arrive. She looked panicked, and the fact Wysper wasn’t even with her was worrying. Where could he have gone?*

Percy walked in, gently scooping up a penguin as it stood on his feet. Easing himself into his usual chair as he did so. God, did his body hurt.

“Hey Oz.. looking stunning, as usual.”

“I know you look breathtaking as ever.” He giggled and kissed Percy’s hand and knuckles. “Feel any pain? Could I get you something? No alcohol obviously love.” The penguin honks as he’s held by his other ‘dad’

Happy halloween! :D

[gothamcity-official]

For Halloween, do not wear a domino mask, cowl, or helmet if you are dressing up as one of our vigilantes. This is both common courtesy and for your safety so you do not get mistaken for one if there is an emergency. 

We also advise those dressing as the more benevolent rogues to make sure that you do not look exactly like them. Imitation is the greatest form of flattery, but we do not need a repeat of Nightwing punching a civilian because he thought they were Harley Quinn.

“Hi! My names froggy!” Froggy waved to Theo “I’ve seen you with my uncle a lot!” Froggy said happily

"Uh-?" Theo looks at the kid for a moment before just nodding. It's a kid, what harm can this do? "Uncle...?"

*Natah would appear to a beaten and bruised Wysper, as he laid against the cliffside wall as he sat on a flattened part of the cliffside high above the ground beneath. He would be clutching his left arm, as the fingers on his right were red, with noticeable red streaks running from the top of the cliffside where he supposedly fell.*

“Great, I have a concussion now, cause I’m hallucinating.”

*He would say seeing Natah.*
