#and daniel knows about it and feels bad

[tymniemniej]

If I think about the double standard and the disparity with which the media handled Daniel in comparison to everyone else I may lose my mind.

So uh. MelDan ammirite? This (kinda) blew up on Insta and other socmed I use so ig I'mma upload this here too lol

It started as a crackship (and it's still is, I kinda like to jokingly them imagine them pretending to like each other but actually wanting to skin each other alive, a little ooc for both of them, but it's mostly just for fun) but rn I'm exploring the potential ""relationship"" through a more angsty lense.

Nate on the ESPN Unlapped podcast: “He’s got that goal, he’s got that hunger back. He’s back in a team that ultimately he feels that is home for him. You know, we talk about Charles and how close he feels to Ferrari and Lewis with Mercedes. I think for Ricciardo, it’s the same with Red Bull. He feels that’s his home.”

Things that won me over with Lestat:

He mourns Claudia's death.

He's the reason Louis is still alive.

He doesn't appear to have much power over Armand.

He seemed to genuinely regret hurting Louis, and for how his relationship with Claudia turned out.

He appears to not be eating people at the moment? Sticking to rats and all that.

Louis and him are on more equal footing now than before. (Powers, mentality, etc)

Louis says that he would have chosen Lestat and vampirism regardless of what his life was like. And I choose to believe him.

Armand is a piece of shit.

Daniel seems to ship it in the final episode. lmao.

Don't mess with ghost parents if you want to continue alive Chapter 3 on Ao3

Ellie was sitting on one of the individual couches, her fingers couldn't stop fidgeting with each other. She doesn't know how many times she had seen the teenager sitting in front of her before she looked away in order to not overwhelm him.

But, she just couldn't help it. He was her son, her ghost baby. Well, half ghost baby and half alien, but he was hers. Being a ghost herself she knew what having a ghost baby represented. At least in descriptive theory. However, she didn't think her own experience would be so mind-blowingly overwhelming.

Her ghostly maternal instincts could not be appeased, let alone diverted from keeping her attention on her whelp.

Pandora had explained to her in detail what being a ghost mother; whether by ghost "natural" way or core bonding, meant. This after the ghost goddess would adopt both Danny and her and Jazz.

Just remembering how clingy, fierce and overprotective the warrior was with them the first few years she felt ashamed to complain back then. For now, she was in her adoptive mother's place and wanted to have some of the control the goddess had developed when they couldn't stay in the Ghost Zone as long due to college.

Ellie looked at the restless fingers on her hands and bit the inside of her cheek inconspicuously.

Although, in this case none of that options fit her current situation. Because she didn't do the bees and flowers thing with someone liminal, human or ghost, nor did she acquire the child through adoption; core link. In this case, someone got her genetic code and the one from a super hero alien, and did all the work for her.

... For some reason, that last sentence feels weird and wrong.

Best not to think about it.

Looking again at the boy who was receiving clarification from her older sister, the anxieties of hugging and cuddling him in a nest of sheets inside her haunt in the Ghost Zone resurfaced again when he looked back at her. The anxiety increases when the teenager immediately withdraws his eyes from her. But now with fear for be ignoring by her little boy.

She almost let out a disconsolate trill. However, she didn't. Danny was watching her leaning back against the wall and holding her new niece in his arms. She wasn't going to give him a reason to stretch that shit-eating grin on his face.

Tell ya what, it does suck to be in a fandom that doesn't really exist. OTL

And for those very few out there that like the same thing but for entirely different reasons. And then the version I've made up in AU is different from the canon material anyway. 😔

I just wish there were people to talk to about it sometimes....

One of the things I love about Glass Onion is the way that the camera and music work together to tell nonverbal jokes.

Like when Benoit basically has to hold Miles' hand to get him to the conclusion that someone reset the puzzle box Benoit lies about receiving:

Benoit asks if it's possible that someone reset the box, and Miles then declares that someone must have reset the box like it is this huge reveal - and the camera zooms out while the music subtly swells as though he really has figured out something smart, when actually he literally restated what Benoit just said.

i love your commitment to daniel and appreciate you posting news but why do you have to relate 99% of the stuff he does to 00q… there’s no need

Hi, thank you for your interest! A few times I typo-ed the 007 tag as 00q, so that might be what you’re seeing (I correct it, but it doesn’t remove it from the tag unfortunately!)

If you mean mentioning 00q tho, I honestly don’t think I do it anywhere near that much. Apart from reblogging other people’s art, I can only remember three: my most recent post comparing the new image of Allerton & Lee to 00q, the post abt Arena mag where I spotted Daniel’s piercing & said Q would like it, and the sand cat thing. Tbh I just thought those gave the vibes, but I apologise if I made anyone uncomfy (& I will now go through the tag double-checking I’ve removed all the typos!)

I like to appeal to the fandom, not just to my own interests, so I appreciate you getting in touch. I just wanna see if this is a widespread thing:

Okay. But the nasty little embellishments line... Louis "acting out" to lure Lestat to him, like he himself was lured with the Come to Me recording where Lestat added Antoinette's voice... Louis dreaming of Lestat crossing time and death and bloody history to find him--if even angry and wanting revenge. Louis............

If I were to drink a capful of mouthwash every time Daisuke Mouthwashing was deprived of pigment (which isn’t even very much in the first place), I’d be in the hospital for ethanol poisoning a week ago.

initially this post had some commentary about interests right now. and then it turned into a ramble about personal healing in the tags. so the interest post is going separately.

The Ricciardo factor applies

Time to start reading The Queen of the Damned I GUESS

Some soft Danny thoughts for tonight…

Imagine coming home from a long day at work and there’s a hot bubble bath already drawn, and a glass of wine ready for you. He helps you undress and takes your hand to lead you into the bath, then he also undresses and gets in behind you. Gives you soft kisses and massages your neck and shoulders, helping you forget about the stresses of the day. Afterwards, he helps dry you off and rubs lotion onto your back and arms. You see he’s already laid out your favorite pajamas on the bed for you, and he gives you a kiss on the forehead and leaves you to get dressed. When you’re finished he comes back with another glass of wine and a pizza that had been delivered just in time for you to cuddle in bed and watch your favorite movie together 🩷

Daniels whole demeanour and confidence at the gp though. He was absolutely walking and was feeling himself which makes me soso hopeful esp from his comments about next year and the stuff about the sim too. And him wanting himself to race, the belief in himself to go out and do what he loves!! I think the whole things with the fans and support is just a bonus tbh, like I do believe he would’ve decided he wants to come back either way with or without the huge reaction he was getting at the weekend but I like to think it shows him how supported and loved he is.

right and it was also such a nice (and interesting) progression from the launch as well, where even then he was SO excited and it felt like he probably kinda already knew that he wanted to get back on the grid, even if he wasn't quite ready to say it yet 🤧
