The name Amira refers to a legendary warrior princess, while Ngozi means "blessed" and Lolo means "royal wife."

funniest third world moment ever just happened to my family. Guess whose grandpas corpse was involved in a mixup at the morgue and was taken by the wrong people to a funeral parlor with known ties to syndicates that sell organs of the dead on the black market

overall I liked watching Joy Ride but

one thing that bothered me, because it wasn't explicitly addressed, is how Lolo was always shaming Audrey for "basically being white." Like oh don't even try eating XYZ food because you won't be able to handle it, instead of being supportive and helping her to connect to and enjoy her heritage. Like, even if Audrey was "raised white" or whatever that dubiously means, that doesn't change the fact that she has no access to white privilege. She looks Asian, she is Asian, that's what people-- especially white people-- see when they look at her. And that's literally the essence of what her childhood trauma is about-- she has zero connection to her heritage, and yet is ostracized, bullied, microaggressed, stereotyped, and oppressed by white people for it anyway! (Especially by white boys and men, who she spends a lot of time trying to vertically-assimilate with as a result.) She's rejected/scrutinized by white people for being Asian while simultaneously being rejected/scrutinized/criticized by Asian people/her best friend Lolo for "being white"/not Asian "enough." That kind of double fronted oppression undoubtedly only fueled Audrey's insecurity and internalized racism throughout her childhood into adulthood. Lolo gets to call out Audrey on her very real racism/Sinophobia specifically (wish Lolo hadn't used boba as an example, that was inane) but the movie never calls out Lolo specifically for the racial component of the way she treated Audrey. Obviously, Lolo apologized at the end, but it was a blanket apology for being an asshole/bad friend holistically lol. Just wished it had been spelled out for the benefit of any viewers who didn't pick up on how Audrey really needed an ally/a united front against racism in their tiny white town but Lolo was only able to provide that partially, and undoubtedly made some of Audrey's insecurities worse.

TLDR mixed race people and adoptees need and deserve space to just exist as themselves. When mixed race people/adoptees grow up to be racist and/or self hating there is always a reason... we all (white people and POC) need to make sure that we're not the reason lmao

i miss my fucking dog man

[ripdragonbeans]

If I had a nickel for every time I went back to WA and return to find out a very close family member has died or is dying i'd have two nickels. Which isn't a lot but it's weird that it's happened twice.

Sorry Fran it this is how you find out

"When father comes back, tell him that I have at last gone to college—my mistress talks Spanish. It’s the cheapest college I could find."

[madrigaljail]

Anyway Dolores' verse in WDTAB and the present tense and the idea of her knowing - for sure! - and not being able to do anything about it was one of the first things I went feral over so maybe I actually do have way too many feelings about this. Like I don't wanna fight over it I'm just ignoring Jared again.

For a second I thought "Prometheus and Epimetheus as Philip and Caleb"

Like why?😭

If anything they remind me of Lolos and Frenimos from the story my grandma used to tell me when I was little

"Good" Mom Alyssum AU (remastered by an anon)

…Welp. I’ve decided to remaster my “Good” Mom Alyssum AU submission.

  Don’t really have anything to say other than…enjoy!

===== ===== ===== ===== =====

The basic gist of this au is that when Mugo doesn’t respond to her letter, Alyssum brings the egg she made with her back to Highgrove instead of leaving it in Hallownest, believing it to be her chance to “get it right.” And by get it right, I mean NOT throwing a bunch of razor sharp petals at its face

This is all the backstory you’re getting for Alyssum being good lol

ANYWAYS

Onto random details!

Yonna and Sylva are still a thing in this au, don’t worry lol

Sylva and Yonna meet the same way they do in the Noble AU, only in this one they meet in their teens

Sylva and Yonna talk frequently after the party they met each other at, and Sylva eventually learns about Yonna’s home situation through little bits and pieces of conversation. Safe to say she doesn’t like what’s implied, and tells her mother about it. Not even a day later, Alyssum comes home with Yonna in hand saying she’s…taken care of it

Alyssum didn’t kill Yonna’s parents by the way. She did, however, gift one of the more…cruel nobles a new pair of servants, if you get me :)

Sylva, in her younger years, is babysat by members of the White Magnolia. She practically considers them family

Damascus is basically Sylva’s tough love aunt in this au. Alyssum doesn’t allow her to give her daughter nail training, but does allow her to interact with her

Yonna is still trained by Damascus in this au. Their relationship is roughly the same as well

Yonna ALSO still has her wings due to Alyssum’s early intervention. As in, before she cut her wings off

Ignyad is basically Sylva’s eccentric uncle. He gives her all sorts of gizmos and gadgets as gifts, and even teaches her some of his skills

Sylva’s birthday is a big deal for the White Magnolia. The whole group comes together and goes all out with the celebration. Gifts galore, decorations everywhere, games, you name it, they’ve got it. It’s a whole grand time

Alyssum has learned from her mistakes with Mugo, at least when it comes to lashing out. Whenever Sylva has a differing opinion from her own, she doesn’t scold her or tell her she’s wrong, and instead tries to understand why she has the opinion she has

While Alyssum and sylva’s relationship is loving, it is also toxic. Allow me to explain

 Alyssum has normalized violence and torture so much in Sylva’s life at such a young age that it’s just a normal part of every day life for her, to the point where Alyssum would tell her about certain methods she used.

Alyssum gave Sylva lessons on torture at the age of 9. On live subjects. Do with this what you will

As she grows older, Sylva’s torture methods become more creative…and cruel. She even begins to feel a sort of twisted enjoyment in torture during her teen years. Alyssum doesn’t help as she just encourages her to do what makes her happy

Sylva is equal parts cruel and kind, in the sense that she’s kind to her family, and cruel to those who would harm it

Sylva, during her younger years and even during her adult years, likes to refer to her torture sessions as “playtime”

You would think Yonna would be better but…no. Cuz in this au, her family’s treatment of her is far, far worse. It resulted in her feeling angry at the world, and apathetic to everyone in it, save for Sylva and Alyssum, as well as some members of the White Magnolia

Yonna absolutely loathes her parents in this au. She would have killed them sooner were they not all buddy buddy with some of the most influential people in the queen’s court. Their current status definitely puts a smile on her face

Yonna is much more brutal in this au when it comes to killing people in this au. Just a little tid bit.

Sylva is very obedient to her mother. If an order didn’t come from her mother’s mouth, she’s not doing it 

Sylva will do anything her mother says. Her mom says run? She runs. Her mom says swim? She dives right in. Her mom says light a fire? She shows up with OIL. The only exception to this is Yonna

As you might have guessed, Sylva and Yonna are terrible people in this au. Sylva is cruel, sadistic and manipulative, and Yonna is angry, apathetic and uncaring. And yet, despite that, they somehow bring out the best in each other, with Sylva’s kindness, creativity and patience and Yonna’s determination, loyalty and sense of justice

Oh yeah, forgot to mention Trail, Pim and Trav are here too

You Know that AU you briefly mentioned three years ago where Zeeke finds and trains all three? I’m just gonna make a link to that post since it’s literally just that in this au: https://fly-sky-high-bug-games.tumblr.com/post/616924763896610816/wip-im-too-dead-to-work-more-on-today-u-decided

Alyssum has met the three vessels in this au during meetings with Zeeke. Despite what Zeeke says, though, she can see that they are no objects. Even if she’s a monster, she’s glad the trio has each other to turn to, and are happy

ALyssum eventually scheduled meetings so Yonna and Sylva could meet them. They got along well, so she continued to do so

Alyssum has also met Lolo. She thinks she’s marvelous :)

Sylva and Yonna have met Trail Pim and Trav as well. The five are like siblings, really, despite two of them being monsters.

All five of them agree on one thing: Zeeke sucks. A lot

Trail is the most cautious of Yonna and Sylva, as well as their mother, but they’re nice enough, and they haven’t hurt their siblings at all, so they trust them. They get along well with Sylva

Yonna and Trav are sparring buddies, and have a mutual respect for one another

Pim is just happy to have new friends lol

===== ===== ===== ===== =====

Aaaaaand that’s my remaster of my “Good” Mom Alyssum AU submission! Hope you enjoyed it, and goodbye!
