hello esteemed tumblr user moash. do you have thoughts on lirin and his disapproval of kaladin (until the end of row)? or lirin's character in general? you always have good character thoughts and im thinking abt lirin's line "i obey the person who holds the sword to my throat, same as i always have" bc it slaps

hiiiii i think lirin’s pacifism is potentially really interesting but kind of butchered in row. he’s made to seem almost ridiculous for his completely reasonable views. like the scene where kaladin kills the singer in the clinic i feel like most people felt lirin was being unreasonable, but i think if they imagined instead of a singer it was a human, it would feel way different. it’s actually pretty amazing that lirin readily accepts singer’s humanity much quicker than any other character! imagine you spent your early career operating on victims of the blackthorn’s conquest sorry “unification” of alethkar and then the son you raised to be a healer ended up killing, for the blackthorn, in your sanctuary. i’d be pretty distraught too. this isn’t to say i think lirin is right and kaladin is wrong, but i think lirin’s views weren’t well represented in row and he was made to look more in the wrong than he was.

i think this is maybe not a common occurrence, but it’s definitely a trap that sanderson has fallen into before that character will sort of lose their characterization in favor of fulfilling a role opposite the leads that they don’t necessarily fit. lirin in wok would not say “i obey the person who holds the sword at my throat.” that man stole from the brightlord and lied about it for years, enduring hellish conditions for him and his family to give kaladin a better future. just because he was a pacifist didn’t mean he was passive or submissive. not like a rebel either, but i feel like his character shifted significantly in row to suit the role of a passive submissive character opposite kaladin’s rebellion and action. i think this happened with sadeas in words of radiance too. in way of kings he had legitimate reasons for his betrayal of dalinar, he truly believed he was doing the right thing for alethkar, and i think even dalinar acknowledges this is the alethi way. but in wor he shifts entirely into being a villain for villainy’s sake. none of his moves are for the good of alethkar anymore, and he admits to adolin that he will continue to work against dalinar and the united alethkar if he is left alive. like that’s not really the same guy, he’s just filed down to fill a role. i think both of these characters could have filled those roles and kept consistent characterization with a little more creativity and effort, i find it just kind of lazy the way it ended up being written.

i feel like i got off course, the tldr is i like lirin a lot, especially in wok, but i feel like his character is flattened in row in a way that makes his ideals look ridiculous. which is a shame because you’re right that that line could go hard in a better context imo!! but i felt sort of letdown by his row appearances

I HEAR YOU SWAN!!!!!!!!!!

[climbing through your bedroom window in the middle of the night] the thing of it is that the love is the revolution writ small do you understand? the love is the—stop screaming it's just me—it's the revolution in miniature. it would have been enough in its way for orpheus simply to love her and love her well and keep his promises. because if he had he could've kept her alive AND THAT WOULD HAVE BROKEN THE STORY. can you scoot over you're hogging the pillow. yeah perfect thanks so you understand now right? eurydice is the embodiment of the marginalized the oppressed and the vulnerable. the most radical thing you can do on behalf of that class is stand by their collective side and build a new world with them. the most radical thing orpheus could have done would have been to be exactly what he reduces hades to in epic iii—a person in love. not a protagonist not a hero not a mythic figure just someone who loves and hopes to be loved in return. shit i'm kind of thirsty actually. which way's your—down on the right? and cups are next to the microwave? cool. you want me to bring you a glass of water too? right on. but the thing is a person can't BE a symbol and be a person at the same time. when orpheus brings the gods down with his song and makes people of them he and eurydice are forced to take their places in a sense because the narrative demands heroes and villains and a narrative. it's a power vacuum sort of thing, right. and the right thing to do would be to refuse the call and get out of dodge but orpheus having had his worldview shattered is seeking structure and has to fall back on—yeah no you're right i'm sorry i was getting those waters. yeah i'll be right back. don't fall asleep.

🎵 ask game!! 3, 25, 30 💜💜💜

Hiii Rowan!! 🥰

3. if you were to get lyrics tattooed on you, which would they be? (or tell about what you already have!)

Ohhhh man it’s so hard to pick!!! I always find lyrics that resonate with me but for a tattoo, I’d like something uplifting, so…probably “you’ve been loved; you still are” from the song “Valé” by Ibeyi. Or maybe “somebody’s gonna have to answer, the time is coming soon” from “Why” by Tracy Chapman.

25. Is there any activity (walking, housework, studying, etc) that you cannot do without music?

FOLDING LAUNDRY. I’m terrible at folding laundry in any case but apparently I’m incapable of doing it without music. The Age of Pleasure album by Janelle Monáe is a pretty surefire helpmate, though.

30. Do you sing along to songs in the car? In the shower? other places?

Eeeeeverywhere!! Car and shower and I don’t even need to be singing along to a song that’s playing, it can just be in my head. 😂 Sometimes if I’m walking home and there’s no one around I’ll sing softly along to whatever song I’m listening to in my earbuds.

(ask me about music!)

Picrew Kiss Tag

thank you @rivenantiqnerd for the tag!

rules: make your barbies OCs kiss (and I do apologize because there are quite a few of these) using this picrew!

Michael (left) and Virgil (right)!! /actually pretty accurate (except maybe Michael's nose but it was as close as I could get) and I like to imagine that Michael can't stop looking at Virgil when they kiss :)

Vil (right) and Emile (left) my beloved :) seen here doing couple things as they do, Emile possibly still thinking they're friends cause he's dumb like that.

Aria (right) and Evie (left)!! everything here is pretty much accurate except Evie's hair, which is dyed dark green at the roots and slowly fades into black. Evie's just so happy that Aria likes her and oh my heart hurts

Laurie (left) and Amara (right)! wow is that two women in love who constantly used to compete for social status?

Charlotte (left) and Ella (right)! btw Amara and Ella are twins so that's why they have the same color palette. the hair is natural, unlike Aria's. this pic was taken the day Ella was crowned.

Julian (left) and Henry (right). this is in their 80s prequel era, specifically the moment that Julian essentially threw what he was doing to the side and kissed Henry. I will say that Julian's scar is a little farther from sight and a little less conspicuous. aaaa they're so cute <3

(p.s. I made a funnier version)

Taj (left) and Itsuki (right). this is their kiss right after Taj rescues Itsuki from Akahana, hence the blood and fresh scars on Itsuki and the scratches on Taj. might I mention that Itsuki is being carried bridal style?

oh this was great. thank you for introducing me to this!! gently tagging @elsie-writes @mundanemoongirl @the-letterbox-archives @missaddledmiss @lexywrite and @leahnardo-da-veggie + open tag!

A medical show where a patient comes in with a minor complaint but as the show goes on it becomes more apparent that the situation is Wrong, and the shrewd doctor seeks to find a solid diagnosis but his whole team tells him that the symptoms are impossible, the physiology is impossible, that is not how a body works, but the person smiles because everything is fine and has always been fine, but the smile is too wide and there are too many teeth, too many mouths, no mouths, one mouth, and the doctor will find the truth, because he’s an expert and the only one who can find the truth, only to be consumed by the truth

Call that show House.

As we continue entering into August and as we continue having Disability Pride even though it's no longer July, it’s important to continue recognizing that the genocide occuring in Gaza is also disability issue. Thus, no one's free until we're all free since all of our struggles are connected!! 🍉 Please consider donating to Boshra’s gofundme, which is a little over 75% away from the goal. Boshra, an 18-year-old physically disabled Palestinian girl with muscular dystrophy, and her family have lost their home and have been living in a small tent in horrible conditions (which includes lack of food, contaminated water, and extreme heat). Boshra’s gofundme is in my bio, can be accessed here: https://gofund.me/05d6b7a7, and can also be accessed in the bio of her Instagram account, which is abuelkhairboshra.
