bedtime for an-chan ς꒰ ´‌ ତ ˋ‌ς ꒱ა

she canonically has a hamster plushie on her bed, which i think she sleeps with every night.. which reminds her of her partner! she also has one of those projector nightlights because she can't sleep in total darkness (it's scary). she loves to be coddled by her cg especially when sleepy

after a bottle of angel milk and a lullaby, she's sound asleep ♡

HI I WAS THE ONE WHO REQUESTED BABY RIN AND CG LEN I LOVE IT SO MUCH AAAAAHHH,,, could you maybe do the reverse now? baby len and cg rin? SORRY SORRY I LOVE UR WRITING SO MUCH <333

Baby! Len and Cg! Rin ૮ › 𖥦 ‹ ྀིა

Rin loooves being Len's caregiver! It brings her so much joy to care for him and play with him!

She is such a playful caregiver! Always playing peek-a-boo with him when he is in babyspace because it makes him giggle the most ૮₍ ˶ᵔ ᵕ ᵔ˶ ₎ა

Len is very playful too in his little headspace! He usually just runs to Rin with a few toys and asks her to play with him! ૮ ∩˃ ᵕ ˂∩ ྀིა

I think Len loves bathtime! But!! it has to be a bubble bath or else it doesnt count! ૮ ྀི ´∩∩` ྀིა

Rin tends to give him funny santa bubble beard or a bubble hat and it makes him giggle a lot

Because he loves banana snacks, rin always preps or buys him baby banana snacks and give it to him- she actually spoils him!!! she likes to see him happy, and if she tries to feed him veges he becomes fussy..

Fussy baby? sad life... happy banana baby? happy life! ૮ ˃̶͈ 𐃷 ˂̶͈ ྀིა

I think Len enjoys the idea of kindergarten! So Rin tends to prepare him these little baby lunch boxes that he gets to open and eat together! ૮ › ༝ ‹ ྀིა

Rin calls Len by these petnames: Baby, Prince, Puppy, and buddy!!!

They’re so cuddly and snuggly!!! ̇ ૮₍ ⸝⸝´ ꒳ `⸝⸝ ₎ა ̇

a post about fic updates! so the fics im currently juggling are dog teeth, tams, and of course, taob. my original plan was to start posting the second installment of the dog teeth series by sometime in april, bc it's the fic im most into atm and i already have the first chapter done, i just want to bank another one or two because once i start posting it i want to KEEP posting it with regular updates, hopefully every 2 weeks like with kaiein. HOWEVER this will put my atla fics on a back burner. april is a good writing time for me (PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE) bc i have the entire month off from uni to prep for may exam season, and i always want to write when im procrastinating my degree. which is. it's own thing im sure i'll graduate it's fine i'm fine. so if i focus on dog teeth, neither tams nor taob will get focus until like. june. which is par for the course with taob but im NOT happy about doing with tams.

SO my thought process was i can either be normal about this and just accept it's literally my final year at uni and im trying to graduate and it doesn't matter if updates are slow on ANY fics, or i can do my usual and implement an insane deadline that i somehow always make by the skin of my teeth. can you guess what i went with?

and thus i present unto the crowd my tentative plan: have the next taob chapter done by middle of april (im aware this is quite hand-wavey but it gives me a month to work with, so in my head this means anything between april 10th-20th), have the next tams chapter done by the end of april, and dog teeth can follow.

most of my feed since i came back has been padded regression discourse and yes everything i've read so far is correct (it isn't gross and if anything the people who view it solely as a beep beep inappropriate thing beep beep instrument/prop are the ones who can be perceived as gross for that being one of (if not the sole thing) they associate nappies with when it's mostly used for uses that aren't beep beep inappropriate thing beep beep... nor is it even the FIRST thing it was ever used for...)

but quite frankly my biggest question ever has always been how is "diaps" pronounced? like... dips i get it it's dips it's said how it's spelled... but diaps? is it like dah yuhp, deeh uhp, deeh yahp, dah yahp... yes, this is the only thing i'm contributing to this discourse cuz idk much about utilising nappies in regression yet so i feel like i can't speak on the matter in as deep and in-depth of a way which is what this discourse warrants

I kept thinking about how much Louis bases his worth on money and work and realized that he never really experienced poverty. He was well-off as a human, he struggled briefly in Paris but since he got with Armand he pretty much lived the life of a luxury lmao. Nothing comparing to the poverty that Lestat and and Armand experienced. Ngl, l was a little dissapointed when it turned out that Louis took everything in divorce. There's a line in iwtw when he was like: he could make me kill children but not part with my money, so what would it take to make Louis willingly part with his money? Can you ever take the capitalist out of him? I really wanted to see him living in a hovel wearing rags like he did at certain point in the books not live that rich capitalistic lifestyle lmao, but I don't think we gonna see it :(

Mm, he never experienced poverty per se, no, at least not in the way Armand, Lestat and Claudia all have, but I think Louis' relationship with money is very complicated, in no small part because money is used against him as a form of racial violence when he's a young man in New Orleans.

I've talked about it on here a couple of times now, but I've been doing a lot of research lately on the culture of money for a project that I'm working on, because it's systemic failures to understand that money is not an objective thing, but something that wields enormous social power, that allows for financial abuse to happen. While I'm researching it specifically through a domestic violence lens, there's a lot of crossover with that when it comes to racism and government failures in acknowledging how money is used to further entrench not just inequity, but racial violence (I've actually been particularly researching dowry and remittance abuse too, which is fascinating and uniquely awful [not dowries and remittance payments themselves, but the way they can be weaponised particularly in culturally blind systems like we have in Australia]).

The first few episodes are extremely clear that Louis' experiences as a professional man have been limited by his race, but they're also clear that he's a victim of financial abuse by white society men who'd pay him a fraction of his worth in exchange for a seat at the table they clearly don't think he belongs at. This is pretty much said explicitly at the card game scene in 1.01 (and not really here nor there for this post, but I think a vital point of connection in that Lestat sees this for what it is and maintains the ruse while helping Louis to cheat a game that's rigged against him).

Louis swallows it because he's ambitious, yes, but also because he's the sole provider left in his family given nobody else in his family has the want or capacity to work.

We don't know the entire situation with his father's sugar plantation, but the implication is that it wasn't in good shape when he died, which is a part of the reason Louis became a pimp. He needed to make money to keep his family not just financially secure, but thriving, but at the same time, Louis' desire to earn is, in my opinion, about more than just personal ambition and providing, it's about social power, autonomy and independence. For him, money is symbolically something that was used to keep him low and to keep him out of what he knew he deserved, and I don't really think that's changed for him. He uses it to buy what he wants, yes, in art and interviews and blood donors, but it's also I think about having social power over the society that once exercised repressive and racist power over him.

I think the version of the character we get on the show would never give that up, and honestly, I wouldn't want him to? I think thematically it's too important now as it's tied inherently to Louis having both options and autonomy, and I don't really like the implications for his character about what it'd mean to give it all up.

As for Armand - we don't actually know if he ends up with nothing post-s2. Yes, Louis keeps the Dubai apartment and kicks Armand out, but I kind of assume they'll have done some sort of asset split (although I do imagine Louis will take most of it, because of his association with money and power). Given how rich they seemed to be, I imagine even if Armand does get a fraction of what Louis keeps, it'd probably still be an eye-watering amount of money, haha.
