also here's the line that absolutely sent me earlier:

No, It wouldn’t be until she finally looks at little Philip, who is crying in relief that she’s home, that she would realize she was alive. And only then would Thomasin realize that she had seen hell, she had survived it, and it is now standing in her room, clutching to her as though she was salvation.

[archive-double-knots]

Thomasin sits at the table, picking leaves off their stems and dropping them into the waiting pot of water to soak. Looking outside, she sees the Wittebane boys helping her father with the daily chores.

"Mom?" Thomasin asks, continuing her work. "Why can't I do what Cale and Pip do?" She looks to the woman, stirring a pot above a small flame. "I can't wear pants, and I don't get to do the chores with Dad, and I can't shoot the muskets either."

"Because those are things that boys do." Felicity responds, lifting the ladle and watching as the green liquid dribbles back into the pot.

"But why just boys?" Thomasin asks, shifting so she can sit on her knees; now able to reach across the table to get the rest of the herbs. "You let me do that sorta stuff before the brothers came to live with us. And now, we even do this sorta stuff in secret too."

"That's because the Wittebanes aren't one of us." Felicity replies, her eyes glancing out the window to watch as Caleb took the axe from her husband. He was capable, and far more open minded than the others in their town. "They're one of the townsfolk, of Gravesfield. And we don't show ourselves to them. We blend in." Yes, in time, Caleb Wittebane would make a fine suitor for her daughter. He'd be someone who could fit into their world. "Remember, the townsfolk won't accept us. Won't like us. They'd chase us, hang us, burn us. They would never let us go."

Thomasin thinks this over, watching as Philip tries to take the axe from Caleb, who simply seems to hold the axe out of reach. A small sigh escaping from her lips, "Then why do we live here? Why live in Gravesfield if they don't want us here?"

Felicity blinks at this question, lifting the ladle up once again; this time catching the liquid into one of her signatural shaped vials. Ones that her husband had made for this sole purpose. As it fills into the vial, it slowly takes on a gentle glow.

The older woman walks over, placing the vial into Thomasin's hand, before crouching down low. Now, looking up into her daughter's beautiful aqua colored eyes, her own forest green eyes also appear to glow the same as the vial.

"Remember, Tommy, the fox never looks for a mouse in their den."

A sinful smirk lifts on to the woman's lips; as she presses Thomasin's hands around the vial even tighter. Thomasin's eyes begin to glow a pale blue, and the vial feels warmer than before.

"No matter the predator, it never searches its own home first." Felicity continues, "Hide in plain sight, befriend them, offer them gifts, tell them praise, and give empty words of flattery. Do whatever it takes to keep them from suspecting you. That's the only way to live."

Thomasin nods, the vial is burning against her skin. Her lips part, as if to ask a question, but instead, she closes her eyes, and feels the magic flowing out of her into the vial. Suddenly, her mother's hands leave hers. Her eyes open, and so do her hands, looking down at the vial now containing a bright blue liquid.

"If I hide in the den, will I eventually get to live as a fox? Or am I always stuck being a mouse in hiding?" Thomasin asks after a moment, looking up at the woman who returned to her pot.

"Tommy, if you manage to live in the den, you'll be something even greater." Felicity chuckles, gesturing to the window; at the Wittebane brothers.

"You'll be a mouse with two foxes bowing before you."

you know john's whole 'tommy i need a wife now because my kids are running around at night and i can't handle it bla bla ' is funny. because maybe if he got less drunk in pubs and spend some time at home, this wouldn't be an issue. and thinking of, on the topic of who's the most like arthur sr? you bet it's john.

For the plot bunny ask game: Ruby Barker + Little Women (2019) please??

@dancingsunflowers-ocs ✨💛✨

Oooh, okay, this one kinda slays, thanks so much, Alexandra!! (Also gonna tag @ginevrastilinski-ocs since I think I remember her liking Little Women?? <3)

NAME: Alice Thomasin.

LOVE INTEREST: Meg March.

SUMMARY: Alice had been loving Meg March from afar for as long as she could remember. Though the two young women had never exactly been friends, as it were, since the March sisters were not always able to come to social gatherings and Alice, being the eldest daughter of a wealthy family, was expected to attend all of the ones that were held, they had always been friendly, and it had only taken a view short conversations for Alice to fall into a dizzying, head-over-heels love for the other girl that had lasted a long time. However, she has never been able to be sure that Meg feels the same things she does about other young women, and so Alice has resigned herself to pining from afar and eventually marrying someone that her parents choose for her - until, during a social call to old man Laurence’s nephew results in an offer to spend more time with the March sisters, which leads Alice to believe that, just maybe, she might have a chance with the object of her affection after all.

OTHER INFO:

We’re just gonna pretend that homophobia doesn’t exist in this time period and that two women can marry each other, okay? Okay.

Anyways, yes, meet Alice! My dearly beloved hopeless lesbian who falls in relatively unrequited insta-love with Meg that eventually does turn out to be requited, once it’s been given some time.

Basically she’s over paying a social call to Laurie and his grandfather when the sisters come over to visit Laurie, and Jo really likes her after talking to her for a bit and offers her a membership in their play-writing and performing club, which the others don’t have nearly as much of a problem with as with Laurie given that at least Alice is a girl. Seeing an opportunity to be close to Meg for a while, even if she still can’t have her love returned, Alice accepts immediately.

Their love story is kind of a ridiculous slow burn, because Meg still needs to accept the fact that she likes women before she can even acknowledge whatever feelings she might have for Alice, but they do eventually get together and get married and the whole thing, and it’s so sweet and soft and lovely.

Alice develops an amazing BROTP with Jo, and is actually the one to help the other girl realize that she’s aro-ace (because you can pry aro-ace Jo from my cold dead hands, so why shouldn’t I make it canon if I can?).

send me a fandom and a faceclaim/love interest and i’ll make an oc!!

watched eileen (2023) yesterday at the cinema and not to be all i’m a creep i’m a weirdo but why was i the only one laughing at the funny parts

Jojo Rabbit (2019)

[arlo-venn]

I went to see a John Waters comedy show tonight with Tyrell bc whomever she was supposed to take with her backed out, or something, and I don’t dislike John Waters but it was really… stupid? Saw lots of Cincinnati folk that I recognized and despite having lived here for ten whole years, that still amazes me— as a person who spent the first twenty years of their life moving around constantly.

Tyrell’s dad came, his seat was very far away from ours thankfully because he asked a very embarrassing question at the end 😅 We got to sit next to our neighbors, the ones who also have a dog named Arlo. I found out that they refer to my son as the better behaved Arlo! Which is good for my ego.

Anyway, I wasn’t expecting a John Waters comedy show to be so… basic? is the word that comes to mind? I was promised that he’s a weirdo but he just seemed like a normal 77yo queer man. I ended up stealthily playing my favorite numbers game on my watch for the second half. But I’m glad I got to go with Tyrell and be there with her for the experience (she’s obsessed with him) and the memory.

Things that should be analyzed tm but i cant because i just get emotional: (Note: all of these were not planned and mainly things i noticed long after i did it lol)

Tia's magic is golden in color. && Golden guard / Hunter's magic being gold

Empress Tia being called Aunt/Auntie by Hunter

Thomasin having silver/white hair / dressing in pastels && evelyn being all dark colors in both clothes and hair

Thomasin slowly going from dark forest greens to bright red and pink pastels to midtone purples

Her middle name being "Memorantia", which means "Remembering", and her immortality curse

Philip being the reason Thomasin got trapped and Hunter being the reason she gets free

Caleb calling her "Memora", but Philip calling her "Tommy"

Tia's mother being burned alive && Tia's speciality being fire/lightning magic

[archive-double-knots]

now the only question i need to answer is: what the fuck is thomasin actually doing with her life 4 years later

she literally has no reason to continue living. Belos is dead. Philip has been dead for years (and she would come to accept that during 'thanks for them'). Caleb is gone, and he can actually rest now that Belos is gone. She'd be able to find the traces of her family and such within the first year of the aftermath.

But Thomasin is still cursed. As long as Gravesfield continues to tell the story of the Wittebane brothers, as long as the Isles speaks of Belos; as long as the Collector lives to remember the events; Thomasin will remain.

Thomasin will live as long as the remains of her former friends sticks in someone else's mind.
