how Seb looks at him.. and Kimi being shy

[gemmahale]

Some thoughts rolling around in my head today:

*I'm purging these because I have to get something productive done today and this is stopping me because brains are DUMB. I'm also playing with color because I am a child inside an adult body.

There's a sentiment I've seen rolling around (in multiple fandoms, for an extended period of time) of "I do this for free, I can't pay for a sensitivity reader/proofer/beta/etc." If we're a community, couldn't that be bartered for? Hey, would you read my thing - I want to make sure I do X right. I'd be happy to proof your work if you want (or other equitable non-monetary exchange). Or even: Hey, can we talk about your experience as [a first responder, a teacher, a <insert descriptor here> as it might pertain to this work? Did that go away with the need for speed posting? The never-ending rat race of constantly trying to catch the attention of the masses every day? Where did that community sense of "I'll help you, you'll help me" go?

Follow up: If anyone wants me to consult on plants, or beta-ing their work, or whatever, I gladly will. Or I'll help think of people who might be willing to help with the specificity of experience to add to what you're writing about.

I really need to get a stapler for my desk, jfc.

Can we just do away with the vague posting? Just as a whole? Go fucking talk to the person that you're vague posting about. Pull up your pants and do the thing. I know it's scary and I know it's hard and fuck's sake I'm terrified that I have to talk to my boss about some shit tomorrow, but I know it'll get resolved a lot faster than winding myself up over what might be a simple oversight.

Do I need another WIP? No. Do I have another WIP? Yes.

PUMPKINS. So many thoughts on pumpkins.

Okay. That's all for now. I think.

omg my pajamas itch the fabric rubbing against me is bad that part of the tee shirt where the sleeves are stitched (is it stitched? or is it sewn? idk. im too fucking high rn) is rubbing my underarms in an icky way and i can't explain it but my hands just feel wrong also i can't stop rocking in place. which is making it real hard to type. shit am i tweaking? can you tweak of fucking delta 8? i took this same exact dosage yesterday and i was high af but it was the good mellow high i take this shit for. and now i am so aware of my body and the space around me. and while my anxiety has relaxed a little, i think i upgraded to super adhd. it's like regular adhd, but on drugs

oh shit i wrote that like 20 minutes ago trying to find the perfect gif to post bc then i get a good grade on...jfc i swear i had something at least mildly funny to say but then this fucking plane flew up and the noise made me jump. and i still haven't posted the goddamn gif. i give up. here's what the internet gives me:

[yourgamemasterthewhiterabbit]

tbh I read this as trying to be a badass and regretting it. Not even being able to control the faces about it.

The thing is the movies tried to go for hypermasculinity to the point of cartoonishness, manly movies for men to approve of. At least borderline toxic masculinity...

But in the actual cartoons and comics it's well established that he doesn't like pain, and has the fairly standard fears of heights and deep water because of the pain involved with potentially drowning in very slow motion or with the amount of full body injury from falling from too high. He actually even acts nervous of being tossed up in the air under the wrong context, even though he won't explicitly state why.

Half the cartoons are seeing him be emotionally devastated by mean comments and be nervous something is going to suck but put himself up to it anyway. And he pouts about it! He'll experience something unpleasant and respond by saying "I hate *insert something that just happened to be adjacent to the situation*" because he's cranky now [I don't think he actually -hates- ducks, for example]...

Logan in the movies liking pain -or at least pretending to- is a very valid interpretation, because that's how they wrote it, don't get me wrong...

It can often be hard to tell the difference between pain and pleasure on most people's faces. Studies have shown that the nerve hard-wiring that goes into the facial expressions between one and the other have so much overlap that it can be hard to tell the difference between sex -for example- hurting someone else or feeling really good, at leas on a strangers face, if not also for someone you are familiar with. A lot of people's "oh god yes" faces are -very similar- to their "oh JFC that hurts" faces. Lots of partners for lots of people find themselves stopping or checking in to make sure a face is a green light instead of a red one, until they get used to their partner, if they are considerate. So regardless of how they intended this to be played or read, it could be read either way.

And being an adrenaline junkie is a little bit of a separate issue from whether you actually enjoy pain being the trigger.

Either way people can do or think whatever they want, I am not here to get in the way or say anyone is doing it wrong. Movie Logan is effectively a different character than other iterations, if for no other reason than because of the media/cultural environment the films were made in.

Pain kink just isn't how I personally read this scene. Maybe because I read enough marvel comics way the fuck back and had already seen the old series, maybe due to personal bias. But this very much reads as pretending to enjoy or not care about it to impress/intimidate someone, and then having it hurt more than you were expecting.

I feel like every now and again wolverine fans need to remember how the pain kink thing was DEEPLY played into in the '03 flick

[like-wuatafauq]

OH SORRY that's totally my bad, I read your reply last night when I was super sleepy so I must've jumbled up the details in my head >:(

But now that I think about it... 22 years wouldn't even make sense romantically speaking IDK what I was thinking 😭

Your dad is absolutely horrible for abandoning you like that though. I'm so sorry you had to go through something so painful. You don't deserve that kind of heartbreak and betrayal from a parent. That's just unforgivable :(((

But woah 8 years of pining romantically is still a really long time...

I feel you on being hopeful about finding real love someday. Don't put too much pressure on yourself about running out of time! 24 is still pretty young in the grand scheme of things. Plenty of time for your soulmate to come along ^^

And in the meantime if you're looking for volunteers... I mean I'd be happy to keep you company :D

Oops! Haha... just kidding... unless...🧍‍♀️

And I totally get not vibing with media that glamorizes something like love triangles or player behavior but Nana has a special place in my heart because it helped me get through some really tough times years ago. It also made me realize I had super heavy comphet back then LOL

Speaking of... you mentioned your English isn't very good. Does that mean you have a different native language? If so, what is it? :O

AND HAPPY PRIDE MONTH BTW!!!

From ♡

It's okay sometimes I answer asks really late too. And yeah I always hear that "you're still so young to find love" except in my mind if I want a family someday I have to build up trust with someone and its already hard for me to believe ppl.

As for ppl keeping me company, honestly I think I'm gonna wait it out, if my soulmate finds me I want her to know I waited for her. If she wants her spot warm then I'll be the only one sitting there.

And then she can sit on top of me when she gets here

Lmaoooo I'm so sorry about that,

But as for the Nana I'm glad that helped you :) fr fr ,don't get me wrong I love the art and a lot of the cute pictures of them together but when I find out more about it I get dizzy. (I genuinely get physical sickness when things involve player stuff)

And I mean I'm fluent in English it's not some drastic thing cuz I type/speak often in English but it's just I look up a lot of words meaning almost every single day. And if someone speaks quickly I might not fully catch it. I often don't understand phrases or words someone tells me. ive tried googling the phrases but google doesnt understand what im asking 🥲 in my mind I have English words cluttered in groups so a lot of the times I misused them when I speak or write. I feel so so so so bad when I do that.

For example one time I wanted to tell someone "I don't want you to think I'm codependent" because i was trying to express how i would like to have them around all the time but if you want space id like them to enjoy it(jfc even now i cant word it properly), anyway the point is I forgot the word codependent so I typed "I don't want you or need you"......yeah it was bad bro.

When me and my bestie were roommates I would say stuff and he thought I was mad but it's just my tone I say it and the words I use. I fuck up sooooo bad I'm constantly apologizing to ppl. So im fluent its just wonky but My native language is Spanish tho :)

Happy pride month to you too!!!

Do you have any pride month plans??

[thatdeadaquarius]

I have so many ideas but none of them can be put into words, all I can do is just wheeze as they come along🤣

Also remember how wordy and flowery Teyvat speech/dialogue is? ADD THAT TO THE FACT THAT TEYVAT HAS ITS OWN LANGUAGE---

Reader can understand the basic speech which is why they are so blunt (I love this idea so much 🤣) and can piece together an idea what the person is talking about.

*insert random person talking about a commission with a long ass backstory*

Traveller & Co.: *understands completely and making plans to retrieve said commission*

C!Reader: (They said they had a cart.... a bunch of hilichurls appeared... dancing?.... they want us to dance fight the hilichurls???? Dance off???)

Actual story->The person's cart got ambushed by a group of hilichurls and taunted them by dancing around it.

....... it doesnt always translate well

Also imagine Reader heaeing random names and overthinks it as a word instead of a name.

Example: Pantalone means pants in Philippine English (sorry not sorry Pantalone)

Tsaritsa??? Oh do they speak russian there??? - reader

Capitano -> captain in some countries

(I once mistake Sandrone as Sandalone and I just went "... ehh??? Standalone? Sandalone as in Sand Alone???? Sandal (Flip flops)????

Oh wait its Sandrone" ".... as in Sand and Drone??--)

-Vine Boom

VINE BOOM ANON MY BELOVED 💖❤🧡💛💚💙💜✨️✨️

Gif is me writing u anything ever:

AHFLALA FERRRALLL I STG I ALSO THOUGHT ABT THIS!! WHY U COULD ALSO BE BLUNT BC U ONLY GOT THE BASICS 💀 RIP

Man theyre written language looks so scary to learn, kinda like when I looked into trying to learn Mandarin/Japanese (and even Korean), the letters r just inherently so different i was so intimidated

And u dont even read it like left -> right like English

Omg i tried to reply to a arabic comment on my art post once, and i felt so acommplished when i finally was able to type "اشكرك (thanks)" but like, i had to put it on the OTHER SIDE OF THE TEXT BOX, LIKE ALIGN IT TO THE RIGHT INSTEAD OF HOW U KNOW ENGLISH IS INHERENTLY ALIGNED LEFT, IT WAS SO TRIPPY-

Going thru genshin life only understanding minimal words of anything anyone says is honestly how i feel like ive been playing Genshin LMAO

Those analysis videos/lore are saving a bitch's life out here

PANTALONE IS ALSO RLLY CLOSE TO SPANISH FOR PANTS I KNOW WHAT U MEANNN LOL

UR ENDLESS CONFUSION FOR SANDRONE PLEASE ANON U DIDNT EVEN GET IT RIGHT THE FIRST CORRECTION IT JUST KEPT GETTING WORSEEE 😂😭 SAME THO

That would literally be you in genshin tho, like i could easily see it being like, back to back misunderstandings 😭😭

Like u think u got it right (Oh so his name is Rex Lapis, wait what? Morax? Ok his name is Morax...?? What??? Zhongli??? WHO IS THIS MAN-)

.

JFC first they gotta have a whole different language (like u saw in game)

And ON TOP OF THAT THEY CAN TALK FOR 10 MIN STRAIGHT ABT THE WEATHER OR SOME SHIT??

No... just, no.

U quickly decide u like what little bits of language u could pick up so far, which just results in,

U guessed it, simple speech and short fragmented sentences (or broken Teyvatian)

U cant even bring urself to care when u give half the characters a heart attack and send the rest into laughing fits

No fucks given, they wanna make this extra hard on u by being wordy on top of a new language,

Yeah u dont care what comes out of ur mouth anymore

Also, since everybody is raised in Teyvat very few ppl dont know the language, which once again brings us back to ancient/older deities/creatures who have a more simplistic version/outdated version of modern language

.

Omg getting stuff mistranslated bc u cant understand it all/only keywords sounds like hell but also rlly funny

Traveler/Paimon: "Alright, yes, all is well. We will accept this comission, and depart soon."

You: "...they want us to?? Dance fight?? Hilichurls...???"

Traveler just stares at u half in pity, half trying to hide their amused smile, Paimon is giggling

The commissioner is shook bc a supposed ancient creature?? Just accepted?? Their simple commission?? And u think they want u to dance battle???

.

PLEASE U MISTRANSLATE THE HARBINGERS NAMES RIGHT TO THEIR FACES

Signora: "You shall rue the day you crossed the Fatui mortals!"

You: "Lady we don't care, just fight us."

(Signora just means 'Lady')

Signora: *offended gasp*

Traveler/Paimon trying to stifle laughter

Raiden Shogun jaw dropped a little

.

Pantalone: "What a pleasure to finally meet you traveler, and thine wonderful companions!" *little bastard smile*

You: "And it was awful to meet you, Pants."

Pantalone: 😶😧😡 "Pants?! HOW DARE YOU NOT EVEN GIVE ME THE MOST BASE RESPECT, AFTER I GREETED THEE SO KINDLY-"

.

Oh its so funny, everytime you talk about Childe you always phrase it like he's an actual child bc u thought everyone was just calling him a little kid for some reason (u dont know how Teyvat ages work, he could be for all you know!)

Not very long, but Vine Boom anon your brain >>>>

Ur ideas r so on point, i love them sm

That makes perfect sense why u could be talking blunt too, like an in world explanation really

For you, all the desserts🥰 🤲🍪🍨🍰🍮🧋🍦🍡

Cheers,

vro0m’s rewatch - 96/301

2012 Monaco GP

Disclaimer for this season. It turns out that I only have the footage of the race for a lot of the GPs (no build-up, no post-race content) so there will be way less GIFs unfortunately. I will let you know for each of these reviews if there are GIFs or not. THIS ONE HAS GIFS.

And it's already time for the worst GP of the year. Still no build-up it seems? Argh. No wait actually, I found it on dailymotion (poor quality but hey beggars can't be choosers).

Webber is on pole, which makes Monaco even worse. Alonso is 5th. Jenson is 12th after missing Q3 for the second race in a row... Rosberg is 2nd. Lewis is 3rd and Grosjean is 4th which, again, wtf. Schumacher 6th, Massa 7th, Seb is 9th. A number of drivers got penalties actually : Schumacher for causing an accident in the last race, Maldonado also crashed, others for gearbox changes and such, you get the picture, let's go already. Oh but some of them might protest so that would change things AND there's a risk of rain. We might yet not be bored to death by Monaco 2012.

So actually what happened, as I can explain after watching the build-up, is Schumacher got pole but he had that penalty which is why he started 6th.

So we get a lil segment in which Lewis acts as a TV technician for an interview with Jenson? Sorry for the quality of the gifs but again I found the thing in 480p on Dailymotion so... Even with all my editing skills (not much), there's no saving that.

Oh so Jenson is supposed to be the presenter. David Coulthard asks him if he knows what his opening line is gonna be, and Jenson answers he hasn't got a clue what he's supposed to say. He asks back "are you starting or am I?" and Coulthard says "you are, you're the presenter!” In the meantime, Lewis is with Jake and they're rolling the titles.

5 4 3 2 1... Lewis : "Cue Jenson"

Total silence for three and a half seconds LMAO and then Jenson says "Welcome to the pitlane I'm here with DC and we're back for some more action after a couple of weeks on holiday actually."

Jake tells Lewis "Just so you know David and Jenson can't hear me but they can hear you." Lewis says “oh shoot!” "So we can chat, continues Jake, but I have no control over what they're up to."

It's hilarious, Jenson is here for the vibes. Lewis is trying real hard to do a good job.

Now Jenson is talking about the McLaren body work and Lewis is clearly enjoying this. He says "Alright Jenson we have a surprise guest in the paddock, keep talking" and Jenson says "we... Have... A special guest." DC looks around. "We do?" And Jenson reiterates : "We do have a special guest". Lewis does not elaborate on it at all.

It's Mark fucking Webber.

Jenson tells him it's all new to him to do this job especially with people talking in his ear non stop while he's talking. Lewis tells him to tell Webber that he's proud and pleased to be working with the best driver in the paddock and what is it like for him. Jenson asks "what is it like working with the best driver in the paddock?" DC is clutching his pearls and goes "excuse me, I’ll just step away..."

And Webber goes "... Uuuuuuuh" jfc Lewis is an agent of chaos we can hear DC laughing his ass off off camera. Finally Webber says "I haven't worked with Lewis" and Jenson folds in half laughing, Lewis is also having the time of his life in the studio.

DC laughs and says he can join back then and that it's a good comeback and Webber asks if that came from Lewis. Jenson says "noooo... 👀". Lewis tells Jenson he's clearly stuck so he can say he has to run because he has a meeting with Whitmarsh. Webber says "No but I wanna keep talking, I wanna keep talking" while Jenson says thank you repeatedly.

The cameras follow Jenson through corridors and they end up in the wrong place so Lewis reminds him he's supposed to go to the engineering office. Jenson says "this is the back of the garage we brought you here just to show you it's very quiet at this time of night.” Lewis is like "what" and laughing.

Now here is Jenson with Martin Whitmarsh. He says "Martin Whitmarsh..." —silence— "How are you?" He doesn't have a microphone so we don't hear his answer. Lewis informs Jenson. Then the camera fucks up and he tells him to apologise to the viewers for the break up. He does so. He says "I think we're back on, you have the full face of Martin which is always good." Martin chuckles and it makes his whole body move up and down.

Jenson is asking him a question but at the same time, on Lewis' side, the countdown to the end of that part of the segment has started. 5, 4, ... In the middle of his question, Lewis tells him they have to wrap up. (A little bit of a heads-up would have been good surely? Lol.) Jenson gets confused, Martin laughs. Jenson is grabbing his shoulder for dear life. He says "We've gotta go!"

Fast forward again, they're back out in the paddock. Lewis tells him "Walk faster!" And laughs his ass off as he does so.

See, they exchanged roles compared to the beginning. Now Lewis just wanna cause chaos and Jenson is trying very hard to do a somewhat good job despite him. Anyway, now they'll show us the drivers' rooms. Those are more like dressing rooms honestly. Lewis has a small black couch on which DC sits. He puts Lewis’ shades on. The countdown begins again in the studio. Lewis is face-palming.

Jenson is saying "So yeah that's my room and that's Lewis' room and uh..." DC says "That was the grand prix" and Jenson acquiesce "Exactly that was the grand prix so..." and Lewis says "Stop, stop" and Jenson says "There you have it" and that's it. He smiles awkwardly into the camera and then DC starts laughing. Lewis says good job guys, good job! He takes off his headphones, turns to the camera in the studio and says in a completely different tone of voice : "I do NOT wanna do that EVER AGAIN."

He then asks Jenson "When you retire in a year or so" does he plan on taking that job? He answers that actually doing this made him realise he wants to race for LONGER. Lewis says him too lol. Jake says the nicest thing they did for Jenson was to keep Eddie Jordan out of the program so of course he appears from behind the camera to say "Lewis this is your worst nightmare" and it's all very cringe. Lewis tells Jenson to turn Jordan's mic off which he does. That's it!

Formation lap.

And they're racing.

Oh... Webber has a good start but Rosberg is right behind him and Lewis not far away. There's contact not far down the field and it's Grosjean, sliding sideways along the track. Many drivers have to take the runoff route to avoid him.

It's a Safety Car.

Several people pit. I think Maldonado is stranded too? Grosjean made contact with Alonso and then Schumacher which broke his rear left. Then Kobayashi made contact with Grosjean as he tried to go around him. Jenson was caught in the middle and I still don't really understand what happened to Maldonado but anyway he's out.

Lewis on the radio asks 'what the hell happened in that corner?', he's not happy with his start. Then he tells his team to check his tyre pressure because they just went through a lot of debris through turn 1. He's told everything is fine. And the Safety Car is about to come in. And he doesn’t get a good restart either. The two in the front are a gap away and Alonso is threatening behind.

Funnily enough Alonso is creating a whole train by being super fucking slow.

They're all trying to save their tyres as a strategy but all the drivers are getting impatient and are apparently complaining over the radio that they could go faster.

Now Alonso is finally picking up the pace and literally nothing is happening and there's still 60 laps to go I hate Monaco.

25 laps in, it seems the rain is getting closer and closer and the tyres are starting to go. What to do? Rosberg comes in. Alonso is getting close to Lewis. RedBull and McLaren mechanics are out in the pitlane... Webber is in, Lewis is in, Alonso stays out. Only for one more lap. So Webber is still ahead of Rosberg but now Alonso is ahead of Lewis...

It's starting to rain lightly and so Jenson, who was one of the last drivers not having pitted yet, finally comes in for new tyres. It's a gamble. We're halfway through.

Lewis tells his engineer that at this pace his tyres won't last for very long. Massa is told they need to close up on Lewis. Lewis says someone dropped something on him as he drove by?????

And finally Seb pits from what was the lead. He's fourth but Lewis is attacking. Lewis complains to his engineers they didn't keep him updated on Seb.

It's now to the point where Lewis has to hit a certain pace or they won't score points and/or his tyres will fail. Fucking great. I hate Monaco.

So Alonso is in third, Seb 1s. behind, Lewis 1.4s. behind him and then Massa 0.8s. behind him. 16 laps to go. Slight rain in some places. Schumacher retires from the race while Rosberg gets closer and closer to Webber. The sky is darkening. 12 laps to go. Ricciardo retired also, so that's what? 7 DNFs now? (9 actually it seems.) Still nothing else is happening. Okay now it's getting close. Webber is only 0.7 ahead of Rosberg only 0.2 ahead of Alonso only 0.6 ahead of Seb only 0.4 ahead of Lewis. 8 laps to go. Make something HAPPEN PLEASE. Perez spun so yellow flags in a sector... Oh and Massa is not far away from Lewis either. Yellow again in turn 1... It might still be Perez. Oh actually it's Jenson... Kovalainen touched him in a corner which sent him spinning and Perez then made contact with Kovalainen and found himself in the run off area. Jenson is out. That's 10 DNFs. 6 laps to go. Nothing happening still. The six drivers in the lead now lap Kovalainen who has serious damage to his front wing. Lol him and Perez made contact again. 4 laps to go. So many blue flags. 3 laps to go.

And it's the end of the race!

Apart from almost half the grid DNFing absolutely NOTHING HAPPENED. Webber wins, Rosberg P2, Alonso P3.

I hate Monaco.

[woodchoc-magnum]

Lone Star Hate Watch 3x02

Disclaimer: I hate the show, you love it - that's great, please don't read this, have a wonderful day!

Eddie Diaz for beautiful, calm, cleansing energy and here we go:

Spoiler alert - the show still fucking sucks

Ah they remembered the kid trapped under the ice

Oh shit the kid has asthma

I love that the kid just drops fucking cheetos all over the floor and mashes them into the carpet.

This is why I don't have kids. Only cats.

Asthma attack plus being trapped under the ice? That's a double banger right there

100% this kid should die right

Julie Benz – babe, you could do better than Owen Strand, I promise you

This dude's woken up in Owen Strand's house in fucking terror as Owen brandishes a hot poker at him

I think Judd should be a captain

"Those 126 boys really are something" oh godddd this show is so DUMB

Like genuinely I don't recall anyone in the OG being like "oh wow that 118 crew is so amazing" jfc

And I mean Buck and Eddie jumped between buildings and rescued a guy hanging from the back of a plane LIKE? Hello

Not to mention the whole tsunami deal but WHATEVER

EDDIE SCALED A FERRIS WHEEL

And no one was like "oh wow the 118 WOW they're so amazing oh my god"

Anyway, re the boy in the ice – I'm at the part where they call 911 and Grace is talking to them, and here's what I think is going to be the explanation for how this child is inexplicably still alive. He was having an asthma attack when he fell into the water, which closed his airways, which meant he didn't breathe in any water which meant he didn't drown. And there'll also be some kind of bullshit about how the freezing water slowed his heartbeat or something.

BUT that doesn't explain how you can survive in sub-zero water with no oxygen to your brain for any length of time but it's Lone Star and of course nothing ever makes sense

You know the longer you clowns stand around talking about how TK was a firefighter in New York, the longer the kid is trapped under the ice and he should be dead already. Just saying.

Look I'm sorry but that kid should be dead.

And I feel like I'm supposed to be curious about why this guy in Owen's house was shot and stabbed but I really don't care

Other than hoping that he shoots and stabs Owen I guess

I know people were talking about how this was a good episode but I've literally just checked the time and I'm only ten minutes in

Which means I have another 30 minutes of this hard-to-watch, bad snow effect TV show

I guess maybe if you like, care about the characters, you might be invested? But I just don't care about any of them (except Judd and Grace, Billy and now Julie Benz)

Oh I also forgot that Marjan crashed her car in last week's episode, so guessing she's still trapped in there

I'm also supposed to be working and instead doing this, so... yeah.

This Paul trapped in a collapsed building storyline is very reminiscent to me of Hen trapped in a building in Season 2

(which was way better because I could actually see what was going on)

God the earthquake in Season 2 was fucking great, wasn't it? Buck and Eddie scaling the building, Hen getting trapped, Bobby and Chimney trying to rescue her, that guy falling out the window and splattering on the pavement… 10/10 absolute banger

How the fuck is this kid possibly still alive

I love this scene of TK hitting ineffectually at the ice, can't wait until he falls in

HAHA he just fell in

Is it too much to hope that TK dies

It is, right

I love these two onlookers are just letting Tommy and Nancy pull TK and the kid free and are doing absolutely nothing to help

"you're not dead until you're warm and dead"…. Yeah I'm thinking my theory on this is going to be 100% correct

Lindsay babe you are so damn hard on yourself

My god girl

I don't care about any of this mopey bullshit

Oh please let it collapse again

Now the water pipes have burst which means they could freeze and also drown? No they stopped it so no drowning, just freezing

"Survival window went to minutes" then WHAT ABOUT THE KID UNDER THE ICE HUH

I just feel like a lot of my thoughts on this episode and the first one have been a lot of worrying about the kid under the ice

The show is interesting, and then it shifts to Owen and completely falls flat again

Now the guy with the bullet wound, who was terribly traumatised by Owen branding him with a hot poker, has escaped

I just think the snow effect makes the show look even more washed out than usual

Nobody has done literally anything to help TK at this point

I hope he dies

I just think this kid should be dead.

He's been under the ice for like an hour you guys, he should be fucking dead

But OF COURSE HE ISN'T

And the show's like "the kid's fine" but then TK is going to almost die

"Where's TK" oh here we go

Now Paul is making the poor girl strip

You know as much as I hate the heat in summer, I'm really thankful that snow is not something that I will ever have to worry about

I miss the OG

I miss Eddie Diaz

TK's out wandering in the fucking snow like an Abominable Snowman

HE HAS HYPOTHERMIA YOU FUCKING IDIOTS

HE'S NAKED

HE'S FUCKING NAKED

THIS IS SO DUMB

HE'S GOT THE SNOW BRAIN SCRAMBLIES

(off topic but there's this line in the excellent 1999 movie "Armageddon" that makes me laugh every time and this scene reminded me of it - when they're on the asteroid and Steve Buscemi goes crazy and starts shooting everything up with a machine gun (yeah it's a fucking GREAT MOVIE you guys), Bruce Willis says, in all seriousness - "He's got space dementia." And I really think that line applies to TK here - "He's got snow dementia.")

Like I know you guys were saving the kid but like, he really needed some attention as well, is all I'm saying

You know when people talk about Buck getting whumped on the OG, this is what they want

And the OG has never done this to Buck

Like we couldn't handle it if Buck was naked on the OG, we would all spontaneously combust and Tumblr would meltdown

That's why people like this episode, because everyone's in danger and TK is getting whumped again, like he does in literally every single season

I'm not saying he's a Mary Sue damsel-in-distress, but I'm also not NOT saying that

I'm 30 minutes in, we're nearly at the end

I'd laugh if the jackhammering caused the building to collapse

And now Paul's passed out

Hey Marjan is still trapped in her car I guess

Oh god the thing that pisses Paul off is that they CLOSED THE 126 are you FUCKING SERIOUS

If I eyeroll any harder I'm going to get eye cramps

Fucking complain all you want about 5a of the OG but I still prefer that to this schmaltzy CRAP

I'm so bored.

By the end of this episode we'll have Paul with hypothermia, TK with hypothermia, Owen lost in the wilderness (probably with hypothermia) and Marjan trapped in her car (potentially with hypothermia)

Judd and Grace, loves of my life

Judd is the best, most devoted husband

Oh here's Marjan, still trapped in her car

Now she's gonna get hypothermia

I've typed "hypothermia" more in this than I ever have in my entire life

Now Owen's fallen down a small incline

And HE'S going to get hypothermia

Oh the kid in the ice is going to make a full recovery, well, no fucking shit Sherlock - also they give absolutely no explanation for this so my theory still stands

TK's in a coma I guess

I hope he dies

I hope Owen dies too

Maybe the show would actually be worth watching without the Strands

Owen's in a barn with a bunch of immigrants, if this turns out to be some kind of white saviour shit in the next episode I swear to god

And he doesn't know that TK is in hospital but honestly, he barely remembers that TK is his son at the best of times so I'm not really sure that's going to matter too much to him

I don't care about any of this

Oh the guy Owen rescued has a gun and he's the bad guy and I don't care.

In summation - this show sucks and I don't care.

I'm also always really surprised when I read stuff like "oh this was actually a really good episode!" like in comparison to what though? Because they all suck. This show is terrible. It's just stealing from the OG at this point.

Hit predictions - TK wakes up with Carlos by his side, they reconcile after a few episodes, the 126 is saved, Owen rescues all those illegal immigrants... yeah. It's going to be so fucking great.

man if there’s one good thing about being back on this website (there’s a few, I’m being DRAMATIC)

it’s that I can YELL about SILLY TV SHOWS AGAIN

I’ve made my way through most of Bridgerton and this show makes me so angry and kills me with anticipation

Like FUCK

it has my favorite tropes by the fucking throat

-fake relationship

-enemies to lovers that just CANT stay away from each other

-the friends dancing around each other when they’re clearly in love

I haven’t been this incensed about a show in a long time.

It’s also full of frustrating men and jfc that’s my weakness.

anyways

Kinktober || Day 27 || A/B/O

A/N: Firstly, shoutout to my friend Bleach for helping me with this one. Secondly, shoutout to Tipsy, my resident a/b/o whore and someone who inspired a lot of what I think alpha!Taehyung is like!

Tag list: @samros95​ @adventuresinwonderlust​ @tipsydipsydo​ @ahgasearmyfan

Seokjin:

Definitely a very protective alpha

Not domineering in an angry way, but he’ll definitely try to set you straight if need be

Doesn’t mind other alphas talking to you, unless he can tell they’re interested and you’re actively talking to them

Tries to prep you as much as he can so his knot doesn’t hurt that much (though his efforts are quite futile)

Yoongi:

Second to Taehyung in how domineering he is

Verrrrrryyyyy protective of you and has no problems fucking up another alpha if they start shit

Yoongi has a super high sex drive lmao good luck, you know his knot better than the back of your hand

Probably marks you the most out of the boys, like your chest and neck will be littered with teeth marks and bruises

Hoseok:

He’s very goofy, but can flip the switch as soon is his instincts kink in

He’s chill around other alphas until he senses that they’re into you, then he starts being a bit hard to be around

A lot like Yoongi, he marks you a lot to remind you who you belong to

Probably has the biggest dick in BTS so imagine the fucking knot jfc that could break something

Namjoon:

He trusts you to do good by yourself and make your own choices

He’s more about guidance and making sure you’re comfortable with stuff, he doesn’t really like ordering you around

But god help you if you do something that pisses him off bc he’s hella dominant when angry, he’ll fuck your pussy up

Very big family man, so there’s definitely a lot of pups (not as many as Taehyung tho-)

Jimin:

Probably the softest alpha out of the boys

He probably let’s you vibe the most out of the rest of the boys, but if anything goes wrong, whether it’s another alpha flirting with you, or another omega giving you shit, he’s right by your side to back you

Might fuck you in public near another alpha to assert dominance

Like Sope, he’s really into marking, and he’ll tease you the entire time he’s sucking bruises onto your body

Taehyung:

The most alpha-like alpha to exist

He’s super dominant, very protective of you, and has no problem telling you what to do

Paired with him impreg kink, you can imagine how often you get knotted… seriously, that’s a lot of pups

Constantly scents you in public if another alpha so much as looks at you, might even take you to the nearest bathroom and show you who your alpha really is

Jungkook:

He’s kinda a mix of the other members? He’s laid back, but he also knows when to be attentive

Constantly marking you and scenting you in public to fend off other alpha, and he does so shamelessly

Like Yoongi, he’ll do some damage to another alpha if need be

Lactation kink hehehe, so while you’re pregnant with his pups, his mouth is probably not leaving your tits

Content Tag Game

Tagged by EXO sister-wife Kat @yeoldontknow​ <3 1. what fandoms have you written for (but do not currently)?

2. what fandoms are you currently writing for?

3. how long have you been writing? on this blog?

uhhh I definitely wrote half of several harry potter and lotr fanfics in HS but that was ‘the dark times’ many moons ago. so as an adult this is my only fandom! just stumbled into kpop and stumbled onto fanfics in the most backwards way possible (was sent a meme of a 1D ‘imagine’ and was like hey I wonder if they have these for kpop and then I found them and they were not a meme, but were fucking incredible AND NOW 4 YEARS LATER (started August-ish 2017???) here we are hahaha)

4. on which platforms do you post your stories?

oh dear god i just remembered I have an AO3 account..... WHOOPS, shit 😅 might need to, y’know, update that at some point. jfc adhd object permanence is something else.

5. what is your favorite genre to write?

Personally it’s sci fi/fantasy, but here in the fanfic space I’d say..... uhh slice of life, romance, angst but make it a happy ending?? fanfic is a way for me to share all the sort romantic hopeful feelings I have about love and life and friendship and purpose 💕

6. are you a pantser or a planner?

Used to be a pantser when I started this (and when fics used to be like ?? 3k-5k) now that fics in general are longer for one-shots and series my good lord I need an outline. Especially for exo mall which is *insert meme of crazy guy with the bulletin board* a lot for my brain haha

7. one shot or multi-chapter?

8. what is the perfect chapter length in your opinion?

I’d say mine are usually 5k or so?? some series were shorter per chapter, depending on subject matter. I tend to write like... interconnected long as frick oneshots, so i don’t count those as chapters ☠️

9. what is your longest published story? is it complete?

uhhhhh good question haha. my book was 95k and I think exo mall is like *dammit math* 140k or something that has significantly gotten out of hand. I have two more fics so it will probably be like 180ish when it’s done?? not including the drabbles to come haha 

10. which story did you enjoy working on the most?

I loved No Quarter and torturing Kat with her husband, also staying up all night to finish Chanyeol’s exo mall knowing kat had NO idea it was coming was a BLAST. Kyungsoo’s exo mall was one of the most ‘in the flow’ writing experiences i’ve ever had. I wrote this Baek oneshot at like 3am when i couldn’t sleep once and tbh it felt like I wrote it in a dream. ja;slkfjasd I love so many of these this is like a trip down memory lane, so I’m going to be a wh*re and say two more haha.  This is the most honest and close to ‘real life’ thing I think I’ve written on here (and also one of the only sex scenes I didn’t lose my goddamned mind trying to write a;sldkfja;sdf). And lastly Ablaze, which was the longest thing I’d written (I think) and let me know that hey? maybe I could write a book someday <3

11. favorite request you’ve have written and why (if any?)

This request for Exo Mall Baek was such a joy to write! And for some reason this Taeyong drabble makes me wish I had the time/energy to write it into a full story, it gripped me so much when I wrote it, like a movie had fully downloaded into my brain out of nowhere.

12. are there reoccurring themes in your stories?

For sure! I’d say found family is a big one. Trusting that you’ll find your place even if things don’t make sense or you feel unsure. Believing that love is worth the risk and fear of trusting someone ;laksjdfal;sd. That love can be big gestures and super intense, but that after that fades away it’s the small daily moments that matter most - the people who stay and listen when you’re sad, holding hands and forehead kisses, taking care of people when they’re sick or scared or just need company, showing up to try again or to communicate even when things are hard. 

Someone commented on a fic of mine ages ago that I helped them see that real love (of that small, daily, consistent kind) is possible and MAYHAPS I cried because underneath it all, that’s what I’d want people to take away - that love of all kinds is scary, but it’s always worth it in the end <3

13. current number of wips?

Surprisingly just ... 3? wow how time has changed hahaha. I have Jun + Baek for exo mall (plus some drabbles but that will be something people write in about, so I wouldn’t consider them wips) and then I maaaaay continute on here with the Jun + Min regency baes series. We shall see :)

14. three things you have noticed about your own writing?

1. I can’t NOT write Baekhyun as the biggest cheesy dork in the entire world 2. That I’ll always have endless fantasy world to live in. I have to try actively to not start new WIPs because it’s so damn easy to be inspired. If I’m ever bored I know that I can jump into some story and let myself be carried away for a while 3. that who and how i am in real life is not usually the same person that i am when it comes to the vibe of my writing, and that that’s totally okay <3

15. a quote you like from a published story.

“I wish it had been with someone like you, though,” you say, squeezing his hand.

“Someone like me?” he says, raising his eyebrows, waiting for an explanation.

You look down at the floor, trying to figure out how to put how he makes you feel into words. “Yeah, someone strong, and steady. And safe.”

He lets out a laugh. “Safe? That sounds awfully similar to boring.”

“No, no. You don’t understand,” you say emphatically, coming to stand fully in front of him, grabbing his other hand as well. “You never ask me to be anything but who I am. You’re patient, kind, caring. For the longest time I thought that falling in love would be stifling. That it would… I don’t know, take my independence. Take my spirit. Make me into someone I don’t recognize.”

You step closer, holding his face in your hands. “But I can’t think of anything I want more than to be with you. You make me the best version of who I am. I don’t know how it is for you, being with me. But when I’m with you, it just feels like… home,” you finish gently.

- from Kyungsoo’s exo mall because THIS is how I feel about falling in love now, and this story was me working out what I believed about the process (like a goddamned emo bish haha)

16. a quote from an unpublished story.

For a moment you allow yourself this weakness. It won't destroy you to admire the strong lines of his body, the intensity and focus in the set of his brows, the deep, warm color brown of his eyes as they - oh lord, he's looking directly at you. As he notices you watching him his lips press into a small smile, inclining his head towards you.

'Oh no,' you say, mortified. In a breath you've blinked and drawn your arm through Maggie's, weaving your way through the crowd and dragging her with you.

'What's wrong?' she hisses in your ear, slightly off-kilter from the drink and revelry. 'You're going to tear my arm off.’.

'Sorry, he -' With a hand you push through the front doors, gulping in the cool night air and breathing deeply to steady the erratic pace of your heartbeat. 'Maggie, what's happening to me? He looked at me and I felt so... naked. I can't explain it.'

She realizes you aren't in actual distress and laughs. 'Good. About time you fell in love. I'm delighted.'

- From perhaps a future chapter of Jun and Min regency baes series....

17. space for you to say something to your readers.

Thank you so much. Truly, from the bottom of my heart. This fandom brought writing back into my life after such a long time away and I had no idea I would love it so much. The friends it’s brought me and the kind words that made me cry or cheered me up on a shitty day or made me laugh out loud and the watching other writers grow on their journeys. Getting to hear how something I made could help you feel less alone or less sad on a shitty day is all I’ve ever wanted from sharing all this. Thank you for being here and thank you for sharing parts of yourself with me <3

Tagging anyone who sees this who would like to do it, even if you don’t consider yourself a “real writer” yet (yes you are, stop doubting yourself!!!!) 😘

[miikewheelers]

ok listen. L I S T E N. i kNOW i’ve done this for like two other fandoms but like. i couldn’t help myself doing these headcanons for these boys as well bc they’re cute as fuck and i want to see them smiling and happy ;w;

tomohisa

he’s pretty average, but it depends on his mood and where you go for!

usually quite good at controlling his reactions, but if you get his neck, ears, or sides, he’s at your mercy!

his feet are also v ticklish too uwu

can get pretty squirmy depending on how persistent you are, and his laugh is actually very smooth and sweet!

ryuji

HAHAHAHA i can actually see this boy being hyper ticklish tbh

comes off mature due to his calm demeanor and straightforward personality, but within seconds of persistent tickling he can turn into a child (and sounds like one too lmao)

ticklish pretty much everywhere, he squirms and kicks with all his might to try and get away

very squeaky and high-pitched laugh, which is quite out of character for him ksjhfsdfkjs

goshi

he’s a rather controlled guy tbh. if someone next to him like playfully pokes him he won’t flip out (like his other bandmates); at most he’ll probably just smirk and maybe, MAYBE, chuckle a bit

.......however if you get him by surprise he’s completely at your mercy ksjdhfksjdf

he squeals and tries to kick and squirm away, it’s actually SOO difficult to get a laugh out of him... except if you get his thighs or that spot behind the knees >:)

yeah his sensitive spots are pretty hard to target and reach, but if you do prepare to see the most out-of-character goushi you will ever witness ksjhfskjdf

kento

ughhhhh my shiny blue-haired son, he reminds me so much of ren ;o;

their attitudes and personalities are similar, but also because of the fact that both are like. v v ticklish kjshdfsd

i would argue that in kento’s case it’s probably worse bc he’s only really sensitive around his sides and under his feet, but these areas are SOOOO INCREDIBLY SENSITIVE. LIKE IF YOU LOOK AT THEM TOO LONG HE’LL JUST SQUIRM AND CHOKE BACK HIS GIGGLES. it’s so bad but he’s such a cutie jfc

his laugh is kinda panicked and it sounds a bit choky in the beginning, but if you persist he’ll just be screaming and cackling lmao

yuta

oh maaaaaaaan he is HIIIGHLY ticklish so be warned

like he’s definitely gonna try to kick or slap you if you do it, but he’ll feel pretty bad afterwards so dw too much kjsdhfsd

ticklish to just about any touch on any part of his body, but he’s extremely weak to heavy torso tickles and light touches under his feet

his laugh is kinda screechy but its still cute nonetheless uwu

kazuna

OH DEAR HE IS VERY TICKLISH. like literally to the point of crying if it goes on for too long

like no joke hikaru has tickled him to tears so many times all it takes is just a minute or two of persistence and he’s completely at your mercy

highly ticklish on every inch of his body, like literally if you run your finger along any exposed part of his skin he’ll just squirm and giggle. it’s so hard to pinpoint exactly where he’s the weakest kjsdhfsdf

his laugh is very squealy and high-pitched, but not to the point of breaking your eardrums lmao. he actually spends most of his time heaving for breath and trying to fight you off, the cutie skjdfhd

momotaro

ugh i’m so happy that this sweetie is canonically ticklish uwu

this usually stoic child is actually pretty ticklish just about anywhere, mikado loves to mess with him especially since for some reason he’s the only one who can REALLY make him laugh

obviously he’s ticklish under his feet, but his sides, armpits, and knees are also pretty sensitive ;w;

as mentioned before, mikado is the only one who can really make him laugh for some reason; his usual laugh is kind of quiet and breathy and pretty sweet, but when mikado tickles him he just like. full-on cackles kjshdfkjsdh

hikaru

my best boy!!!!!!!!! i love him sm uwu.

the only think i really have to say is that if you’re gonna tickle him, BE CAREFUL. like seriously he just kicks and flails and screams, he’s so incredibly ticklish that if you only pretend to poke him he’ll just flop and kick

he’s ticklish just about anywhere, but he’s VERY weak when it comes to his armpits, sides and feet ;w;

his laugh is incredibly high-pitched and kinda shrieky, but tbh 99% of the time he’s gonna be screaming instead of laughing so dw

tatsuhiro

omg he and hikaru squabble so much but it’s usually bc hikaru drags him into something and ends up tickling him over something jkfshdkjf

he’s pretty weak to light touches!! especially around his neck and collarbones uwu. his armpits are probably hella ticklish too

he’s pretty good at controlling his reactions; he’s not one to just burst out laughing at the slightest touch like hikaru

his laugh is very quiet, breathy, and sweet!! the other members of moons have actually agreed that tatsu has the nicest laugh out of all of them (besides kazu slkjfhshdf)

mikado

w o w he is a rather interesting case tbh. like don’t get me wrong, he’s pretty ticklish, but his reactions are VERY much exaggerated

like if someone reaches out to poke him he just. spazzes out and tries to roll away.

hysterical in the sense that he doesn’t even laugh, he just screams, and if he does try to laugh it just sounds like he’s choking lmao

most sensitive on the neck, armpits, and sides

haruhi

WOWWWOWOW this boy is so dramatic tbh.

he’s the most sensitive to his brother’s touch so his reactions are a bit more extreme in cases where he falls victim to yuzuki’s wrath, but in any case he usually just falls to the ground and starts squirming while shouting “NO NO NO!!” even before the tickling starts lmao

literally spends like 99% of the time begging instead of laughing

hyper ticklish everywhere, has a very loud and dramatic laugh sljkhfskjdhfs

yuzuki

he’s so cute omfg. if i had to choose which of the twins is more ticklish i’d probably say him tbh

while he’s not as dramatic as his brother, he’s much more sensitive, especially to his touch

he’s similar to haruhi in the sense that he just falls over in a fit of laughter, but his laugh is very soft in volume despite being rather high-pitched

he’s too weak to fight back or even laugh out loud, he just lies there hiccuping in laughter. what a fucking cutie i can’t with this kid ksjdhfskjdf

akane

omg this kid is so incredibly ticklish that he just falls over and squeals in laughter at the slightest touch

everyone else in killer king just likes to gang up on him because it’s so cute; the laughter the squirming, everything omg

weak to all kinds of touches everywhere on his body, very cute high-pitched laugh uwu

need i say more?????

miroku

ok seriously this man is like. a stone-faced GOD.

he tickles akane all the fucking time, so the redhead tries to get back at him but he ends up frustrated bc miroku barely reacts, especially if he just jumps right in instead of sneaking up on him

that being said, if you sneak up behind him, you MIGHT be successful in getting a reaction out of him, but at most he might just smirk and chuckle lightly

honestly he’s probably most ticklish on his feet, but that’ll only get a few chuckles out of him. honestly he’s not really all that sensitive to tickling tbh

GoT Afterthoughts ep. 08x01 ‘Winterfell’(Part 2)

Okay, well now that I’ve gotten some sleep, let us continue, shall we?

~

So we left off with the Great Hall sass-fest between Dany and Sansa, who clearly have gotten off on the wrong foot. Not gonna lie, I’m enjoying this jealous, very snappy side of Sansa. Remember when I told you all last season that it would take the threat of Dany encroaching upon what Sansa perceived as hers — her home, her closeness with Jon and her place by his side — for us to start seeing her feelings begin to emerge? Well my friends, I believe its begun, and it’s only going to get worse as the season progresses. Sophie did say that Sansa’s fight this season was a more passionate one...

~

As for Dany’s reply? I’m sure that I don’t have to tell y’all how highly inappropriate it was. Not that i begrudge homegirl a saucy clapback, but that’s probably not the best thing to tell an entire room full of people who don’t particularly trust you yet, and know how dangerous and unpredictable your dragons are. And let’s not forget that the dragons actually have eaten people before, so it’s really nothing to joke and/or scoff about. For me, it harkens on Jorah’s comments in the season 7 finale regarding why the Dragon Pit was constructed...

~

“Dragons don’t understand the difference between what’s there’s and what isn’t. Land, livestock, children...”

~

So for Dany to make such a flippant statement just to get a one-up on Sansa isn’t a very bright move, imo.

~

We move out into the courtyard where Gendry has taken charge of the task of unloading the stock of Dragonglass. Tyrion watches him from the battlements, and spies Sansa and Lord Royce. Their reunion was always going to be awkward due to the circumstances they parted on, but I suppose Tyrion feels like there’s no time like the present to get it out of the way, and approaches them. Bless Lord Royce for watching out for Lady Stark. ❤️ He leaves only when she indicates that it’s alright.

~

They exchange some terse pleasantries, and Tyrion learns rather quickly that Sansa is no longer the meek young girl he once knew. While she remains polite, she doesn’t watch her tone nor shy away from saying exactly what’s on her mind. This is her home and he’s on her turf now.

~

They share a few barbs about the purple wedding and Sansa apologizes for leaving so abruptly. It’s really just a formality, and Tyrion knows it, judging by his reply. Is he resentful that she left him holding the bag? I’m not rightly sure, to be honest, and she doesn’t clarify on the circumstances she left under, either. He wasn’t back in season 4, but people do change, along with their perspectives.

~

“Many have underestimated you, most of them are dead now.”

~

Well if that isn’t some kind of ominous foreshadowing shit, I don’t know what is? It’s also the truth, so Team Dracarys beware!

~

Tyrion attempts to quell the fear he’s certain she must have about the Lannister army coming to Winterfell, and Sansa calls him out for trusting Cersei. He tries to explain that he believes this time is different because Cersei has something to live for now. I know everyone thinks this is a nod to the possibility of Cersei being pregnant — but what if it’s something else? What if it’s her revenge that’s keeping Cersei going? It has in the past... I mean, this is Cersei we’re talking about, and at this point I’m just throwing shit at the wall to see what sticks. lol

~

In any event, Sansa gives a subtle shake of her head and leaves him with some striking words that are sure to cut Tyrion deep in his pride (beings that he ‘drinks and he knows things’ and puts a lot of stock in his own perceived cleverness): “I used to think you were the most cleverest man alive.” Ouch.

~

My girl is really out here snatching these wigs left and right!

~

Sansa walks off leaving Tyrion to ice that sick burn... perhaps he can cool it with that frigid stare Bran is giving him from the courtyard below? Methinks something is amiss, and methinks Bran is gonna be pulling the receipts soon. Either way, it’s hard not to be a little freaked out by Bran, and Tyrion certainly looks the part here.

~

We move to the Godswood where Jon stands alone before the heart tree. He looks upset. I mean, he is Broody McBroodster and all, but what’s got my precious snowflake son so pensive? He did manage to secure ‘the greatest army the world has ever seen and two large dragons’ after all, and (supposedly) spent the last month ‘balls deep’ in his auntie D, so what could be troubling him? How long do you guys have? lol AND WHERE THE FUCK IS GHOST?

~

Arya sneaks up on him, telling him he used to be taller, and my heart just grew three times its size. 💗 They lunge into a hug reminiscent of the first season when they parted ways as young, naive Starklings, and dear lord, either I’m the grinch who stole Christmas, or I better call a cardiologist!! Jon even squeezes his eyes shut and looks like he’s fighting back tears! Gahhhhhhhh!!!!!

~

Of course Jon sees that Arya still has Needle. He asks if she’s used it yet, and she... omits the truth. For whatever reason, Arya isn’t ready to share this part of herself with Jon yet, and it makes my heart hurt so much for her loss of innocence. AND THESE MOTHERFUCKERS BETTER LEAVE MY REMAINING STARKLINGS ALONE IS2G!!

~

Jon shows off Longclaw, and jfc, these two dorks look so cute with their matching Ned Stark hairdos and their dramatic-ass eyebrows, here beneath the heart tree in Winterfell, and ahhhhhhhh! Okay, okay, I’m done gushing... for now.

~

Anyway, shits about to get a little weird here... Jon gestures with his hand then bends down, placing that hand on Arya’s shoulder and pulls her in as if he’s about to share a secret and asks where she was before, ‘cos he coulda used her help earlier with Sansa. I say weird because that’s the vibe I got, especially when Arya physically turns her head to look at his hand when he places it there, like she’s onto him or something. She even knows exactly what he’s referring to when she states very matter-of-factly, “she doesn’t like your Queen, does she?”

~

It’s all very condescending (and cut me some slack, because I’m not even sure that’s the right word here) — but his mannerisms, the way he sort of mocks Sansa about thinking she’s smarter than everyone, then seems taken aback when Arya defends her—when Jon, himself, knows damn well that Sansa is quite smart, and has even said so.

~

I was ready to climb into my tv and box Jonathan’s ears until it dawned on me just how isolated he must feel right now. The man has literally given up everything for what he holds most dear: his family and the North, only to be met with disappointment from those he cares the most about. And yes, especially Sansa, whom he constantly seeks validation from. His brooding in the Godswood makes a bit more sense now, as does his need to get his old confidant ‘sibling’ on his ‘side’—however immature it may be.

~

I could be wrong, of course, but my opinion only solidifies when Arya tells him that Sansa is only defending her family, and Jon suddenly drops the act and replies softly, “I’m her family, too.”

~

With a small smile, she pulls her needy validation-seeking big bro back in for another hug and tells him, “Don’t forget that,” as the camera pans back on Jon’s face and we see the emotional impact her words have on him as he squeezes his eyes shut.

~

We cut to Kings Landing where Cersei watches the arrival of Euron’s Fleet. Qyburn brings her the news that the AotD have broken through the wall, as to which she replies with an emotionless, “Good,” before we cut to Euron sharing words with the commander of the Golden Company.

~

He goes below deck to taunt Yara a bit — ‘blah blah blah, and balls and first I’m gonna fuck the queen.’ And I do love Euron, and I don’t know why, but he talks way too fucken much and doesn’t really say much of anything.

~

Cersei receives them in the throne room and is very disappointed that the Golden Company didn’t bring the elephants she was expecting. She dismisses them, but Euron has other ideas (as he expressed to his niece earlier on the ship). Cersei basically tells him to piss off with an excellent quote if I may say:

~

“If you want a whore, buy one. If you want a queen, earn her.”

~

But she’s not the only one prone to manipulating situations, and I get the feeling she knows that Euron’s loyalties are sketchy at best — and so we are given the impression that she relents, when she turns back, and Euron makes it past the Mountain unscathed.

Now we’re in Bronn’s room—whom I guess has taken up residence within the Red Keep? He’s about to get his 4-way on, but the girls keep chatting on about the Lannister soldiers that were maimed by Drogon in the field of fire 2.0 — specifically Eddie, a ginger boy who’s eyelids were burned right off. I assume this was one of the young boys Arya met on her way to kill the queen before she changed her mind? Probably Ed Sheeren.

Arya is not going to be happy about this.

Qyburn interrupts this tepid display of GoT sex (still hotter than floppy chicken sex) with a special request from the queen. He’s got the crossbow Tyrion used to kill Tywin, and a mission for Bronn. Will he carry it out? Change sides? Is this possibly how the kidnap!plot unfolds (for those of you who have considered it)? Only time will tell.

And speaking of such — I’m only 30 minutes into the episode and this has gotten looooooong again. Have I always been this long-winded in my recaps?

~

I’m gonna go ahead and publish this since it’s already a day late. Maybe I’ll have the whole recap finished before the new episode airs?! KIDDING! But seriously, I’m sorry guys... battling illness myself with sick kids and I’m trying here, I swear!!

Hi I haven’t posted anything in a while so I’m gonna do it now. Beware this is going to be a long bitch.

I am also kinda drunk due to the 2/3 bottle of wine and can of hard cider I finished earlier. And I don’t feel good but that could be because I’ve had more dairy today then I should’ve and I’m lactose intolerant.

Anywho down to the good shit.

I am an anxiety ridden depressed overachieving college student working on her third degree. Should I be on meds for that. Hell yes. But I’m not. Because of reasons.

I also know that we are in uncertain times and having an rough adjustment period from in class lessons to online, and that everyone is having a hard time during this.

HOWEVER.

I have this one professor. I have had issues with this man all semester. Something goes wrong? Not his fault. The entire class does bad on a quiz or test? Not his fault. The online conference won’t connect? Not my fault and no, I don’t have a back up in place like zoom to use just in case.

(Please note my sarcasm)

Anywhose, last night I had it. Not only does he have the habit of emailing us important shit just after midnight, he can’t keeep his shit straight anymore. When is the homework due? I don’t fucking know and neither does anyone else. Where is the lecture recording he did because he couldn’t connect the conference? I don’t fucking know either but it ain’t in the announcements where he said it was.

Side note: my momma raised a nice polite southern girl. I say “Yes ma’am” and “No sir” when I really want to say fuck you and no dude. One might even call me a ducking push over from how I act, even a suck up and tucking teachers pet. I. Am. Ducking. Polite. See even autocorrect helps me be polite.

Back to the story. He sends these confusing ass emails about the homework with conflicting due times in them. I don’t get them until like 10 am because I slept in, fuck that shit it was Saturday. And I was done. I went and ranted to the fam, and decided: this was it, this was the day I email him and tell him the truth. While being polite of course.

In the following 1000 plus word essay I wrote I dropped the word hell once and maybe a damn? Definitely mentioned “only you and God knows when” at one point. There might have been bullet points. Some underlining, bolding, and italicization of words and sentences. Maybe even all at once to emphasize a word. I told him what major problems there were and some solutions he could do. I told him his flaws, and how he made me feel. I wanted to cuss this man out so bad I almost used fuck at one point, but the little polite southerner in me wouldn’t let me.

But Goddamit I was fucking polite.

His response e-mail? This bitch called me impolite. And that he disagreed with most of the criticism I wrote. And that he would like to discuss this over a conference call later today.

One: just writing the first email put me in tears, made me dissociate, and tune out from everything and make fucking sun catchers for fours straight.

Two: his response email? Destroyed me. I have never. NEVER. Been called impolite in my 23 years on this fucking planet. I literally bawled, full nine yards, to my mother while she critiqued my first email to see if I was too harsh in what I said. It made me sick to my stomach. I know I’m already fucking failing this mans class, now what is he going to do to me? It was this fear that kept my mouth shut until this moment. I need this class for my upper level physics classes I need next semester! (Side note again: the class in question is Differential Equations and Linear Algebra, and my third degree is in Physics.) ((here is his response actually, duck it I’m posting it))

He can’t teach. I was going to give him the benefit of the doubt because this was the first time he taught this class but not at the sake of my passing this class and my gpa. And he won’t admit to doing anything Wrong, it has to be someone else’s fault this didn’t work out. Was I polite? Fuck yea I was, if he thought that wasn’t polite I should have gone off on him. Could I have been nicer? Yes. Maybe I should have dropped a nice “oh bless your heart”’for trying your best in these trying times. But damn son you are literally the youngest professor I have this semester and you are having the hardest time adjusting to online teaching. JFC.

Now I’m trying to schedule this damn meeting with him to talk this out. I’m thinking of dropping. I’ve brought up some of my issues with the math department, and told this new addition of this saga to my advisor (she knows I’ve been having issues with him).

I have the damn class on my side (as well as anime and God) since they agree with me. They are praying for me as well since I told them I snapped at him. One positive thing is now he figured out how to publish shit on Canvas... after I told him how in my long email. Now he just needs to create the fuckingn homework turn in or he is getting 60 fucking emails on Tuesday with our homework attached.

Also I found out that I shouldn’t drink as much as I did after a huge crying jag. I was only able to be in nice drunk land for the entirety of Knives Out (good movie I recommend it) before the hangover headache kicked in. My eyeballs have felt like sandpaper the entire time I’ve typed this up. Fuck me. If I remember I’ll take picture of the sun catchers I made and post them tomorrow.
