#and she refused to acknowledge it

[aroaceleovaldez]

honestly my favorite part of a bi-coded jason reading of HoO is the scene in BoO where Jason is dying a little bit and thinking about Nico, and Piper is holding him and giving him a look. and Jason in his fatally wounded delirium goes "Oh! Piper can sense when people are heartbroken or whatever. She must be able to tell I'm thinking about Nico. Because Nico is heartbroken 😌 that's what that look is about."

but actually reading the situation for real it just sounds like Piper is giving Jason an "I know what you are" look.

and the funniest fate for cumplane is . . *spins wheel* shen yuan transmigrating into a girl npc cannon fodder in sqh's village, realizing she's trans and guilt trips sqh into a comphet marriage, only for sqh to realise she's trans too and they become schrodinger's t4t.

They’re such insane narrative foils I could talk abt it forever

Funny apothecary diaries thing:

My family and I watch it together, and as we all know, MaoMao refuses to acknowledge anything she views above her pay grade (Jinshi and the whole royal court nonsense). So every time she starts questioning and almost gets there before she’s like, “nope!”, my family will all groan and yell at the tv.

rewatched madoka magica again today bc i fucking hate myself and to absolutely no one’s surprise i went through all five stages of grief in a single evening

[bigmoon-is-bigwife]

Ros will threaten and insult people constantly and then be surprised when they hate her because she was "just being silly." Girl, most people do not take death threats lightly, especially when you genuinely could kill them. 😭

I think there is definitely a part of her that loves the power of threatening and insulting people weaker than her and them not being able to fight back. It's addicting to her and she'll deny it but it's a constant pattern. She feels weak most of the time and this is the only time she can ever feel strong. It's cathartic for her to be on the other end of it. I think she feels if she can get ahead of it and assert herself as the threatening one, she can prevent herself from being the one being threatened again.

It's a constant cycle where she goes out of her way to be antagonistic to people and then gets defensive and doubles down when they retaliate. Then she takes the retaliation as them hating her and therefore all her actions toward them were justified because she can convince herself they were mean all along. And then she ends up alone and paranoid thinking that the whole world is out to get her when it's her own doing that caused this. It's a self fulfilling prophecy.

Underappreciated aspect of this scene is that Orihime also first-names Byakuya and Renji. At least she uses the honorifics. I just thought it was very funny that everyone got very excited in one of the later Blood War episodes where she refers to Renji and Rukia as "Renji-kun and Kuchiki-san" but she has literally been doing that for as long as she's known them. (yeah yeah i know she calls Renji "Abarai-kun" about a million times in between, i was just very charmed by this)

Alice: Now, Jen, all of us are doing this because we care about you, okay?

Agatha: Except for me. I just wanted to see the look on your face.

It makes me SO MAD when people say "there are kind Slytherins 🥺🥺🥺" and show a picture of fucking SLUGHORN

Slughorn? You mean "oh I didn't think a muggleborn would be this talented" Slughorn?

Slughorn as in the Slughorn who told Tom Riddle, a child KNOWN for being a lil twisted, about HORCRUXES just to look good?

Slughorn who didn't even notice a fucking cult being formed in his own house???

People like to blame Dumbledore for the cult, but tell me why it's his fault and not the HEAD. OF. HOUSE? Dumbledore isn't an all powerful all seeing wizard! He's a human who happens to be intelligent and skilled at magic but NOT All Seeing! How is he gonna know Tom Riddle's forming a cult when one) he wasn't even HEADMASTER and two) SLUGHORN was Tom's head of house and should have been aware of it happening UNDER. HIS. NOSE?

Like, even in Snape's time, where the fuck was Horace Slughorn? Where was he when the Mauraders were abusing his own student? Where was he when Lucius and the others were grooming the younger children? Where was he when all of this was happening?

Yes, McGonagall should have disciplined her students. But Slughorn's under a greater responsibility to protect his. Yes, headmaster Dumbledore should have probably intervened in the cult forming. But Slughorn's under a greater responsibility to intervene and inform the headmaster.

For fuck's sake, he wasn't even a good teacher! How did a 16 year old child manage to correct all the incorrect potions in the book and not the FUCKING. TEACHER?!

Horace Slughorn is NOT a "kind Slytherin".

He's the worst one.

So I don't like to define my Rook's relationship with Viago just as brotherly or parental. I think there's an element of connection there that is normally reserved for family, that there's loyalty and shared experience, but that just calling Viago Rook's older brother or parent would be over simplifying it.

That said!

As much as I love the unpacking scene, I do not believe for a second that this thing fit in my Rook's pack while she was on the run with Varric.

So instead, I'm having fun imagining that when she was exiled from Treviso, it was a "fled immediately in the dead of night" type of situation to keep a Crow from a rival house from killing her. She left what few sentimental items she couldn't carry on her person in her apartment, fully expecting not to see them again.

Only to come to Treviso with Lucanis to check in and then be cornered by Viago.He promptly pulls her into his office and hands this thing off to her in the same way exasperated parents hand off the grade school projects and childhood drawings/old toys they've been storing in a box on a shelf somewhere when they finally get tired of holding on to their adult kid's stuff.

Rook isn't sure whether she's touched or supremely weirded out.

[mayordea]

f!byleth fit for my smash hcs. but really it’s just that one dlc for m!byleth. what can i say, that hat looks really cool. i used to draw her with the skirt, but i think the pants look cooler so thats how it is now. i did try to detail the inner part of her cape to look like the pattern of her wacky tights in her og design.

[unalivejournal]

i was going to post screenshots but i needed the whole scene. i feel ill. can you guys please write essays about the inthemiddle family dynamic with me.

[catinasink]

i hate when i think people are cool and my brain automatically assumes its a crush. like can you not my guy work with me here ☝️

[hychlorions]

there's something so jarring about listening to a podcast (fathom/derelict) with a flawed but compelling character (eva graff) who has the audacity to make a very bad (absolutist, probably destructive) decision under emotionally charged conditions, literally and figurative sopping wet (everyone's favorite condition), then see people bitching about her unlikeability in the comments. I thought we supported women's wrongs in this house!!! you'll forgive jon magnusarchives but this is where you draw the line? 🤨 swagless.

eva graff, my liege, you have my sword
