Your (very) special ask:

What would happen in your dream Birdrick scene?! <(•.•<)

YAYYYY

hmmm realistically i think it'd be veryyy funny if bp had got to the point where he had to reach out to rick for parenting advice (certinaly the last person he should be fucking asking) HELPP spending the whole day trying to chase and stop his daughter from doing a space beth or something... just a bunch of dumb action movie-esk shit between points of reminiscing and easing tensions i guess

but dream scene??? man fuck it. birdrick wedding.

so ooc and unrealistic it'd kill the rnm reddit community like victorian children tasting mountain dew but i don't give two shits HELPP

i think birdrick wedding could go down two paths of like.

las vegas drunkard elvis chapel ass shit (bp probably doesn't even know why some random ass guy in a golden suit is officiating the wedding but he's too happy fairly drunk to care) (also this scenario would probably be when they were younger yk flesh curtains phase)

2. or actually thought out like. full venue n everything

I think the 2nd idea would be so interesting cause it's such a clear parallel to wedding squanchers n the characters would be well aware of it too like i can imagine rick being suchh a mess emotionally and mentally like. secret security measures everywhere. somehow built in a bullet proof vest into bps outfit. shit like that hELP

n i think in general something would go wrong, nothing to the extent of wedding squanchers of course, but smthin small like morty loses the rings or birddaughter speaks out against their wedding, stupid shit like that, n it erupts into a big goofy meltdown AJHKDKJS

but they'd make through the wedding (somehow) n they'd be gay married!!! yayyy!!!! SHJFKKDFJHK

Random but I think Vinny would be Sam's best man instead of Paulie or Tommy.

@bearyyayay what do you think?

[black-rose-writings]

Nothing funnier than geting a drug talk from your conservative mom (it was relevant in the context of the conversation) and finding out she did LSD when she was your age.

My girlfriend had been living with me in headspace for a week or two and no one knew except me. Now they're angry but to be fair, they never asked.

What did you think about Behlül’s relationships with Bihter and Nihal? Did he love either of them? Did either of them love him?

I think he did actually love both of them, but in his own way. He seems to have a tendency to have a great big romance that he quickly burns out and rinse and repeat with the next person he fancies.

As to whether he was loved, I'd say yes by both, but also in a limited way. I think he's kind of like the high school crush of a girl from a very small town, where the girl wants to date someone mostly because she thinks it's exciting at that age. And so her crush toward the guy develops more out of her daily life having a very limited pool of potential boyfriends, than out of any wow moment of attraction to that guy in particular.

For Bihter, I think she would have equally fallen for a different person who was young, handsome and charming, and consistently close at hand to observe.

But I don't know if she'd have slept with anyone who was not so casual as Behlül. His cheerful lack of morals and friendly persistence surely helped a bit to remove some mental barriers in her mind. With someone less happy-go-lucky, she'd maybe just have had lovesickness and stayed at that as a 'noble' kind of compromise between cheating and withering without experiencing real love.

There is a word I can't quite translate, 'prepustiti se' (to let yourself go, to abandon yourself to a feeling/situation, can be have positive or negative connotations), which I feel works for both Bihter and Nihal's feelings to Behlül.

They were first pursued by him and they seem to have almost purposefully convinced themselves into loving him. Both were lonely and desperate in different ways.

Bihter was in an unhappy marriage, I don't think I need to elaborate too much as she herself describes it all in a self-aware way in the novel.

As to Nihal, she was frankly somewhat neglected by her family. Yes, she's otherwise "spoiled", but they made huge decisions to remove her brother, and her governess, and her kitchen buddies, and didn't even tell her until the very moment it had already happened! Extremely frustrating and scary for such an already isolated girl. She lived from day to day not knowing who she could lose next, no wonder she got all emo.

So when the situation came that everyone was suddenly eager to marry her to a guy - one she already knew and trusted and casually bantered with - I think half of the appeal would be a young girl's physical attraction to Behlül as a man, but the other half would be the idea of finally keeping someone for herself (because her family couldn't very well decide to whoosh away her husband on a whim, lol). I can see why she'd accept the situation.

Shadows of Fear: Repent at Leisure (1.5, Thames, 1971)

"Poor Robert. Do you remember what the doctor said? He'd never seen such an advanced cirrhosis in someone so young. He had a liver like a Strasbourg goose."

"Occupational hazard."

"How'd you think that made me feel? It isn't very flattering for a wife to play second fiddle to a wine list."

"I'm sure it was no reflection on you."

"All the same. I hardly changed the pattern of his life, did I?"

"No... but you're asking Harry to make fantastic adjustments. From galley to, uh, captain's table."

"You're a terrible snob, Peter."

"Oh, I am. So are you, my pet. That's what frightens me."

i must admit that despite playing my time at portia first i knew next to nothing about the world's lore when i first started sandrock, mostly because i wanted to give the spanish translation the benefit of the doubt and it ended up being... not very well done (this was like four? five? years ago, so it may already been fixed), so this time i played the game in english, still expecting that i would be less into the story and more into the mechanics of the game that were the reason i even bought it in the first place despite mtap's being barely comprehensible to me... boy was i WRONG

[starrywangxian]

not to be one of those people but i miss the "wangxian married with a son" era of the mdzs fandom. nothing's like it is in the good old days 😔

[areyoudoingthis]

[mysteriouslybluepirate]

I've always wanted to go to a bridal shop and just ask to try on dresses.

I'd lie, and say I have a wedding coming up, and that I'm not quite sure what I wanted. Say I had a few different shops in mind and that I wasn't sure what type of dress i liked...Just to see!

WHO COULD STOP ME?

[mishkakagehishka]

Personally i think mika would be very charmed by my constantly bleeding fingers
