It's been a hot minute

I haven't stopped posting, I'll likely post something Kdrama-related just after this in fact, just real quick want to rant about the book series I've been reading.

I've been reading Sarah M. Eden's Jonquil and Lancaster series - they're Regency novels - and they've been great but also devastated my vocabulary. And by that I mean you can often tell in most conversations. So fair warning. They've also entirely consumed all of my time bc book.

So that's why.

it drives me bonkers the way people don't know how to read classic books in context anymore. i just read a review of the picture of dorian gray that said "it pains me that the homosexual subtext is just that, a subtext, rather than a fully explored part of the narrative." and now i fully want to put my head through a table. first of all, we are so lucky in the 21st century to have an entire category of books that are able to loudly and lovingly declare their queerness that we've become blind to the idea that queerness can exist in a different language than our contemporary mode of communication. second it IS a fully explored part of the narrative! dorian gray IS a textually queer story, even removed from the context of its writing. it's the story of toxic queer relationships and attraction and dangerous scandals and the intertwining of late 19th century "uranianism" and misogyny. second of all, i'm sorry that oscar wilde didn't include 15k words of graphic gay sex with ao3-style tags in his 1890 novel that was literally used to convict him of indecent behaviour. get well soon, i guess...

Girlie got friend zoned, sibling zoned, cousin zoned in one book that’s crazy

Based on Carmilla by Sheridan Le Fanu

“Sometimes after an hour of apathy, my strange and beautiful companion would take my hand and hold it with a fond pressure, renewed again and again; blushing softly, gazing in my face with languid and burning eyes, and breathing so fast that her dress rose and fell with the tumultuous respiration. It was like the ardor of a lover; it embarrassed me; it was hateful and yet over-powering; and with gloating eyes she drew me to her, and her hot lips traveled along my cheek in kisses; and she would whisper, almost in sobs, "You are mine, you shall be mine, you and I are one for ever." Then she had thrown herself back in her chair, with her small hands over her eyes, leaving me trembling.”

“Are we related," I used to ask; "what can you mean by all this? I remind you perhaps of someone whom you love; but you must not, I hate it; I don't know you–I don't know myself when you look so and talk so."

She used to sigh at my vehemence, then turn away and drop my hand.”

Helaegon are probably one of THE ONLY ships in the history of entertainment media that, despite being canon in all realms, actually came alive only through actor interviews
