3 January 2025

(TL;DR at the end.)

It's been a bit rough today. My wounds are still causing me a decent amount of discomfort and pain but I can at least walk and move relatively freely, though I have to be pretty careful about bending down and stretching.

I went for my walk a short while ago and it was pretty painful though😭🙏Sweat + open wound = big ouch

But in good news, I started on a new drawing today! I'm actually pretty proud of it even if it's only a sketch so far. Hoping to get it done in the next few days.

Me and the family members I'm going overseas with have started buying up winter clothes because where we're going is pretty cold. I'm honestly really excited. I hope my wounds are healed enough to be scars by then... they're deeper than usual so I'm not really sure how long they'll take to heal. It'll be okay I'm sure, Brigid willing.

But yes, where we're going, it'll be winter! I'm really excited for that. I love cold weather so much, and I've only seen snow a few times, so I'm pretty stoked. And I can dress way cooler and more comfortably in the cold too. So excited. I can't take all my usual fashion stuff (metal spikes are a bit of a no-go in airports, and I gotta pack lightish) and I'm a really, REALLY nervous flier but I'm sure everything will be fine. It's a relatively short flight so I should be able to just sleep or watch movies to ignore the panic.

Last night's relapse was the worst I've had in months, maybe years. It's the worst self-inflicted pain I've been in in a really long time and I was genuinely scared for my life for a short while. I really want to get better from this. Today I thought of relapsing and actually felt sick; that's a good sign in my books.

Today I'm happy for my cat! She's really cute and I don't talk about her enough. I love her. I'm thankful for my friends Zak / @evry1h8s-me and Colonel (that's your name now, @castleburns /silly) for being so supportive and helpful and cool. I'm also thankful for Brigid for providing me comfort and helping aid me last night when I was in pain.

Song of the Day: Snap Back - Twenty One Pilots

TL;DR:

Relapsed real bad last night. Pain isn't as bad today but it doesn't go away at all, just lessens. Went for a walk: hurt but I did it. Got a sketch done! Going on holiday soon somewhere cold and I'm excited for it! Relapse was the worst I've had in a VERY long time. Still reeling from it. I just want to get better. I'm not gonna give up on myself because I know the people that love me and my new friends here never would either.

re: the last ask you responded to, I love the description of your relationship with Loki so much! It sounds exactly like what I'm seeking in relationships with deities. I would love to hear more about how you developed a connection that is so playful and fun, and what that looks like in day to day life (whatever you're comfy sharing of course). It just made my heart so happy, like I could feel both of you smiling as I read :)

Well, to be honest, I befriended Loki purely by accident.

Years ago, before life got hard and my creativity was sapped dry, I used to write tons of original fantasy stories. By extension of this, I also made tons of OCs.

One day in 2014, I decided I wanted to create a character who was the epitome of a magnificent bastard—an absolute conniving, rakish, and hilarious sonofabitch—and after months of trial and error I finally struck on an energy.

I was ecstatic to finally get the character down, but as time went on I noticed he seemed to do what characters normally don't do and act outside of my own whims and desires, like he was autonomous. He gave me no inspiration for his story, but tons inspiration for hijinks we'd get up to together (which I would then draw pictures about). He would also sometimes just...leave my head for days or weeks on end before returning. All of it actually weirded me out for a bit, but ultimately the joy of the relationship outweighed my fear of not really knowing what was going on.

But this ignorance couldn't last forever, and three years lafer my character revealed himself as Loki. To say this broke my brain is an understatement; it shattered my concept of reality, and rebuilding it was legitimately one of the hardest, scariest periods of my life.

So it wasn't all playful fun. There was an initiation involved. And the strife it caused nearly convinced me to kick Loki from my life for good.

These days I understand my cluelessness was actually what saved our relationship. There's no way I would have interacted with Loki on the basis of who he is, had I known he was a god. I would have interacted with his role as deity, rather than his personhood.

I guess the trick to fostering relationships like this one, is to interact with deities as people, first and foremost—people who have their own opinions, agency, values, and personalities that aren't beholden to archetypes or societal roles. Interact with them on the basis of who and how they are in relation to you, rather than as deities, archetypes, and/or allegorical devices.

Likewise, avoid slotting yourself in a role in relation to them. You are likewise a person, and not a societal role or archetype. Communicate your genuine thoughts and feelings. Be yourself, however you may be in that moment.

And then see what comes of it.

I did not (and do not) intentionally craft my relationship with Loki to be playful. Our relationship is playful because we play together, and we play together because we enjoy it.

I likewise did not intentionally craft my relationship with Eochu Bres (minor Irish deity, Brigid's husband) around discussions of philosophy and magic. We end up discussing these things because they're topics we're excited by and enjoy talking about together.

While I do have more cordial interactions with deities I don't know very well, even these are still rooted in being genuine. I don't hide how I feel (which is very often "shy and awkward") but this seems preferred over any performances, no matter how lavish.

So yeah. Be yourself, not who you think you need to be to please them.

[the-flame-of-hope]

Hi! I heard that you're also made of fire, which I didn't know people could be in this reality, so this is very exciting. I haven't heard a whole lot about you, but you seem really cool.

Oh, name, right. I'm Brigid.

@theflameeternal

I'm Agnes, nice to meet you. I'm like... an incarnation of The Desolation, if that makes any sense. It's nice to meet another being of flame.

chapter 1 of castles crumbling (aka Tales from the Airport Bathroom extended version) now posted!

Chapter 1: Awakenings now up on AO3: READ HERE

I know I said it would be awhile until I started this fic but I lied :) I was inspired and decided to take advantage. I'm so excited (and also kind of nervous?) to share this story with you guys and hope you enjoy reading us much as I've enjoyed writing so far :)

Summary:

Violet should already be dead. People whispered about her weak body and how she would never live up to her family's martial accomplishments. Violet rose above them all, however, fighting and killing to survive the Navarrian Intelligence Agency's brutal BASGIATH training protocol. Now, people whisper about Violet's swift ascension through the NIA's ranks as one of its most valuable operatives and assassins. The whispers don't matter to Violet: She has her own agenda, and it's a dangerous one - finding out what happened to her father.

But one mission changes everything: Suddenly, Violet finds herself in the crosshairs when she stumbles on information Navarre wants buried, and the country she fought for begins to turn on her. Violet knows too much, but she's determined to do what she does best: Survive. Her only hope is the son of the man who they say killed her brother, but their partnership is far from assured. Some grudges run deep, and trust is a currency too valuable to give freely. Xaden realizes Violet may be the key to everything, but with enemies seen and unseen closing in on all sides, the consequences of failure are deadly.

===

“Violet?”

I’m jolted out of my thoughts and return my attention to Ridoc, who has an uncharacteristically stoic look on his face.  

“I have a really bad feeling about this.” He scratches the back of his head. “Promise me you’ll call if it goes south.”

I don’t deserve my squad. And that’s all the more reason that I can’t let him, or anyone else, near this mission. If things go wrong – if my slight treason turns into not-so-slight treason – then I don’t want to bring any of them down with me. I’d rather die than drag them into my problems. I let my mask slip for a moment, patting Ridoc’s arm reassuringly.

“I promise I’ll be careful.”

He rolls his eyes, but that mischievous spark returns to his eyes. “Bullshit. Danger is your middle name, Sorrengail.”

“Actually, it's Brigid,” I quip with a grin. 

He punches me lightly in the arm. “Of course it is.”

[post-itpenny]

Everyone! - What's your muse's favorite holiday? How do they celebrate it?

Ok, I know I’m not going to get everyone but let’s see.

Maggie, Vespers, Atlas, and Juno- All love Halloween. One of the best things about the holiday is how every year can be celebrated differently. Trick-or-treating, Halloween parties, visiting haunted houses. There is never a boring year.

Also Maggie- Imbolc, St Brigid’s Day. She’s never really paid much attention to it before, but has been doing so to connect a little more with her roots. Plus, in a own way, it reminds her of Brigg

Magpie- Christmas (both Christmas and Yule actually). There is a cheer in the air despite the cold, it’s something that just feels important to her. (Yule always starts around her brother’s birthday though so for a long time the Holliday was very bittersweet for her).

Lyra and Vega- Both love Ostara, the Spring Equinox. More than anything they’re both just excited for all the spring flowers.

Peregrine- Feels awkward that Summer Solstice is his favorite because, on one hand, it’s the longest day of the year and he has always enjoyed the strange extended twilight of the evening. But it also always falls around his sister’s birthday. They’re a lot better than before. But still kinda awkward.

Anne- Gosh, she wouldn’t be a baby anymore would she? I could see her enjoying both Ostara and Easter. She’s very cheerful and loves bright colors. She’s also not allowed sweets in large quantities. I imagine egg hunts are a nice trade since she doesn’t get to eat that much candy trick-or-treating at Halloween.

To be fair. She gets sugar rushes very easily is a terror to deal with when she does.

Thoughts on the UKvsTW s2 Talent Show

Choriza May, Lip Sync Performance (Party in Hell) She opened the show really well. Probably the best song we heard that night alongside Marina's Amafilipina. The outfit was designed by mr.oystr and looked spectacular. Her energy was vivacious and infectious as she performed. Though I did feel like I was having more fun listening to her song rather than having fun by her performance.

Scarlet Envy, Live Singing Performance (Bad Advice) I actually quite enjoyed Scarlet's performance. When she was kept on stage I thought they were going to praise her but instead she was mostly negatively critiqued. Though I don't disagree with the critiques I thought she did well enough to be safe. I just think her mistake with the talent show was that the song's humor was a bit lax. Some of the bad advice was more nonsesical than bad or too general. I feel like if she had referenced herself and her drag race run more the performance would've been much better. The line I laughed at the most was: “Keep losing like me and soon you’ll be, Invited back more times than Jujubee.” Nevertheless she looked stunning so it's fine.

La Grande Dame, Soundboard Comedy Performance Truly frustrating that someone that gorgeous is also that stupid and funny. She stepped on that stage in an LBD, a blonde human hair unit and a mic then proceeded to laugh, grunt and press buttons. It was a phenomenal performance and my favorite details were the reference to her first talent show with the saxophone and at the end when she put the mic under her dress and laughed one more time. Definitely the second best performance of the night.

Gothy Kendoll, Lip Sync & Fire Performance (Inferno) I was really rooting for Gothy here, I love seeing early outs get an opportunity to return but this performance was just not it. The song wasn't very good which made the start of her performance hard to watch. When the fire tricks came out my interest was piqued again and while the tricks were impressive her lack of confidence really brought down the performance. She just looked uncomfortable on stage, even the way she walked looked a bit off. I am glad she got to stay though I hope she's able to build up her confidence and really perform.

Marina Summers, Lip Sync & Silk Poi Performance (AMAFILIPINA) "Born in an island and raised by the seas, Gold in my skin I'm the Filipina queen, I'm a Filipina, Filipina Winner." I loved her performance, pure pinay pride, pure pinay talent just amazing. I could keep talking about how amazing she is but the performance speaks for itself. I will say her doing her own version of AMAKABOGERA by Maymay Entrata sent me into a laughing fit of pure entertainment and joy. (Also that song was a lip sync on her original season and resulted in a double shantay between Minty Fresh and Brigiding).

Keta Minaj, Lip Sync & Gymnastics Performance (Yay2theK) I was so excited for Keta to return, she remains the only queen to garner 3 wins and not make the finale. Truly a robbed queen. She's super talented and her Holland talent show was amazing. Unfortunately she did not live up to the hype. I was expecting a lot from her and I was disappointed. I wasn't enthused by her song it was weird in a forced kind of way and her performance wasn't the best. I'm convinced her gymnastics got her the safe placement but I think she should've been in the bottom 3.

Mayhem Miller, Meditation ijbol

Hannah Conda, Live Singing Comedy Performance I feel like she could've been in the top 3 over Choriza. Her performance was really funny and she sounded great. The false piano playing to the false reveal. It was all really well conceived and showcased her personality really well. As someone who didn't watch Down Under this talent show was a great introduction to the Hannah Conda and I'm excited to see more.

Jonbers Blonde, Lip Sync Performance (In Fashion) A really fun performance from Jonbers. Her personality is just so bright and captivating and it's great to see it shining through her performance. I will say this is like the third "fashion" song in a talent show. (AS3 Milk & AS4 Naomi) So it's a bit of a tired thing to do for a talent show, in my opinion. I did love her look at the start of the performance. The coat played well with the dress and she looked really good, less of a fan of dress' bodice though.

Arantxa Castilla La Mancha, Comedy Performance It was funny when she called them idiots but I felt like the performance went on for a bit too long without a punchline. She just kept saying her name and there is comedy in the absurdity of that but personally I just felt a little uncomfortable. Love her though and while I was uncomfortable I was also laughing and giggling.

Tia Kofi, Live Singing (Read my Lips) I didn't like this performance. It reminded me of Megami's and Ginger Minj's talent show. It was sincere and subpar, to speak a bit bluntly. Her vocals weren't that amazing and the performance felt a bit stilted. I feel like this performance needed dancers or something that could help Tia keep the energy up.

During the transformation process everytime Brigid Tenenbaum talked about how disgusting she finds the Big Daddy I couldn’t stop laughing because I was simping so hard for them.

(⸝⸝⸝⚆_⚆⸝⸝⸝)♡ I wonder what Big Daddy Pheromones smell like ANYWAY-

Bonus:

Also while I know the Big Daddy and Little Sisters bond was engineered it’s still REALLY CUTE!!!!

[skelezomperman]

I’m interested in seeing what prompts/scenarios you’d do for these Finn pairings since I found your Erinys x Finn series captivating and fitting for both characters:

Finn x Ayra

Finn x Edain

Finn x Tailtiu

Finn x Brigid

I'm glad you asked. To be honest, I'm not particularly interested in any of these with the possible exception of Finn/Brigid but I'll go through them one by one. (Spoilers ahead)

Finn/Ayra has probably had the most fan-content of these four, funny enough - mostly Japanese fanart. (It makes sense given that Ayra is perhaps the most popular Gen 1 female and Finn is the most popular non-Sigurd Gen 1 male.) I think this is perhaps the most realistic of the four to happen too. Yes, Ayra is a princess and Finn is a commoner, but Ayra isn't exactly surrounded by Isaachian nobles. She's estranged from everyone else so perhaps she could get with Finn? Larcei and Scathach being twins also helps the timeline because there's no need to worry about how and when two children are conceived and birthed. Sadly, the Finn/Larcei convo in Chapter 7 is rather generic, but it would be interesting. I actually think it's possible they wouldn't hate Finn, moreso that they thought he was dead and were surprised to find out he was alive. So a Finn/Ayra story, maybe it could involve Larcei and Scathach being excited to learn from their father and maybe being envious of him.

Finn/Edain is decent for continuity as well. How they fall in love, well, maybe Ethlyn and Edain were childhood friends and that's how he meets her, so arguably it's more likely than Finn/Ayra. And one could also say Lester has his hair color from Finn, though he clearly looks more like Lex. Still, this probably has the least fancontent of any of Finn's possible pairings in FE4. And again, Finn/Lana in Chapter 7 is generic but Lana would probably be understanding. I don't think Edain would harbor bad feelings against Finn for abandoning her like some of his other possible partners would, but Lester might end up getting a bad impression anyway. Perhaps that could cause some tension between the siblings in a story as well.

Finn/Tailtiu...the age old problem of how you fall in love with someone on the complete opposite side of the map. Tailtiu is the closest in age to Finn of these four, but I still find it hard to see her fall in love with him. On the surface she is less mature than him and I'm unsure if they ever spend enough time together to where Finn could really discover Tailtiu's true self (this is something that I really like about Azelle/Tailtiu). Like many Finn pairings, this one almost certainly requires a "one-night stand" use a euphemism for something very crude. I think such a pairing could explore both of them being thrust into maturing. And then there's the question of the kids. Arthur, already someone who has a lot of animosity towards his mother's family, now having animosity towards his own father. Well, maybe. I think it's a coin flip as to whether Arthur thinks that Finn is to blame or that the Empire is to blame for him being orphaned, either one works.

Almost all of the content with Finn/Brigid revolves around Finn/Eyvel, but let's focus on the Finn/Brigid dimension at least. Obviously Finn/Brigid implies that Finn gets the feels upon meeting his partner having completely lost her memory and I'm sure everyone knows how that goes, but what about the before-amnesia part? Brigid would almost certainly feel that the rug was swept from under her - she just met her sister again, married a guy and had two kids, and then he goes off to Leonster right after (or before) the second one is born. Tragedy! Would she have ill will once she regains her memory seven years after the end of the Holy War? Probably not, but that's because she's older and saw Finn's dedication while she was still Eyvel.

I mentioned before that the person who did the triple moon dish that I bought was doing a custom container for me, and I picked it up yesterday! I absolutely love it, while it wasn’t exactly what I had in mind when I commissioned it, I think it turned out beautifully and matches the aesthetic of Brigid’s altar. I’m storing offerings that don’t fit on her altar dish in it and I’m really excited about it! The seller also included a couple of extra trinkets, including a gold snake that doubles as an orb holder that I have dedicated to Apollo, a couple of crystals and what seem to be tooth beads, and these adorable little mushrooms that I added to Gaia’s shelf. The extra stuff was incredibly kind and I’m really excited to have the little container!

The Astrology of Zac Effron and Vanessa Hudgens

Final Project Compatibility Winter 2022 Brigid Faye

Birth Data:

           Zac Efron: October 18, 1987 1:22 PM San Louis Obispo, CA

           Vanessa Hudgens: December 14, 1988 9:27 PM Salinas, CA

Natal BiWheel:

Vanessa’s south node is 2 degrees conjunct Zac’s moon, meaning his feelings are drawn towards her. Vanessa’s moon is trine Zac’s Venus Pluto conjunction, meaning that she feels compelled to his attractiveness. Their Mars’s are opposed in Libra and Aries, meaning that Zac may sometimes get upset when Vanessa wants to act in her own way. Vanessa may feel smothered is Zac doesn’t let her act in her own way. They both have Venus in Scorpio, meaning they will want to merge with one another. There is a lot of focus on earth in Vanessa’s chart, meaning she will need to take things at her own pace from an observer (Capricorn) place. Zac’s chart is more fire air and water, which means he might be “too much” for Vanessa sometimes, or he may even find Vanessa to be slow.

9V BiWheel:

Zac’s moon is opposed Vanessa’s Moon, meaning their feelings complement each other and they feel able to express themselves around mutual groups. Their Venus’s are sesquiquadrate, meaning that their subconsciousness are attracted to the concept of living and forming community together. Zac’s Jupiter is sextile Vanessa’s Mercury, meaning that her communication style helps him expand his community, and that his expansion helps her communicate about community/family.

Natal Composite:

WOAH

The concentrations of energy are

Saturn-Uranus-Neptune: A long-lasting and exciting dream

Sun-Venus-Pluto: Obsessively attractive

Mars-Chiron: Healing/transmuting Action

Mercury Moon: Communicating feelings and traditions

Interp: These two were young and met while they were auditioning for High School Musical. They were given an opportunity to communicate a beautiful dream that “heals” a divide within a high school through action.  The action is especially charged with “star power”. The film was obsessed over because of how attractive it was within my demographic. It is one of the most popular movies ever made. The Jupiter makes it expansive. These two as a unit were THE famous couple that my generation watched.

Composite 1V Midpoints:

There is a strong focus on the moon here, involved with Sun/Saturn,  Mars/Jupiter, and Neptune/Pluto. This means that Zac and Vanessa feel together in a long-lasting, big action, and compulsively idealistic way. There is also a Mercury at Venus/Saturn with 6’ orb. This means they talk about attractively literate truths.

9V Composite:

Within Community the two as a unit are seeking to be an ideal (Sun qqx Nep) and a powerful beauty (Ven qqx Chi). The latter is especially potent because it is being “fed” by Pluto. The obsessive beauty is again emphasized with the semi-sextile between Pluto and Venus. Basically, everyone thinks they’re really hot.

Natal Needs:

           Zac Efron:

Zac’s Venus is in Scorpio, meaning that in a relationship it is necessary for Zac that he can feel very involved with the person he is with. Venus is conjunct Pluto and Mercury as well, making the mental communication/loving merge more compulsive or intense.

His sun is in Libra, meaning that in a relationship he needs things to be fair. Especially when it comes to decision making, he wants there to be a sense of balance with those he is near. The sun is in a red pattern with the Moon (in Virgo) and Jupiter (in Aries). This means that he is always growing physically and emotionally in his own way, and the person he is with needs to give him space and encouragement to do that or he would get emotionally overwhelmed or upset.  

His ascendent is in Capricorn, which means he needs someone who he can respect for their knowledge/skill and help put the puzzle of life together with, who won’t get upset when he needs to stand back and observe.

Natal Needs:

           Vanessa Hudgens:

Vanessa has four planets; Mercury, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, all conjunct in Capricorn opposing Chiron in Cancer. She is able to build a powerful “family” from an objective place, giving her stardom. She communicates in a way that is truthful and spontaneously ideal.   She needs someone who can appreciate, admire, and give inspiration to that process. Her Venus (in Scorpio) is in a red pattern with Jupiter and Mars, meaning she needs someone she can merge with who helps her take actions that help her to grow. The rising is in Leo, which mean that whoever she is with needs to be honest and true to who they are, living up to their potential and supports her own development. Her Moon in is Pisces, which means she’s smushing together these cultures that haven’t historically belonged together. She needs someone who isn’t going to be offended by that.

Zac Efron Natal Needs Midpoints

 Su/MeMa = Zac is a student, and needs someone he can learn from or with

Ju/MeMa = Zac’s studying will help him grow. Needs someone who will support that growth.

Vanessa Hudgens Natal Needs Midpoints:

Mo/SuJu = V grows when she is honoring culture, the mother, food, memories, the past, traditions. Needs someone who respects that.

Me/SuNe =V is good at communicating ideals, Needs someone who enjoys her perspective.

Ur/SuNe =There is an electric energy to her when she is getting a point across. Needs someone who savors that energy.

9V Needs:

           Zac Efron:

At first glance, this chart looks like the most power is going to be in the Saturn Midpoints. However, the Moon opposing Venus and Pluto means that a community has to feel right and beautiful in order for Zac to be a part of it, once he finds that he will be compulsively tied in with it. Mars is hooked into the Venus Moon Opposition with greens, which means he takes flowing action on those feelings of attraction and beauty that he sees in a community.

9V Needs:

           Vanessa Hudgens:

Vanessa has an aspect-activated isotrap in her chart involving Sun Moon Venus Saturn. To me, this is a very clear description of how Vanessa interacts with community. She just is attractive in a way that fits culture and will be remembered. She will need a community who helps her embrace that, rather than feeling insecure. I also think that the square pattern between Sun Pluto and Saturn is significant, giving her the energy, power, and commitment she needs to channel all this greatness.

Mixed Midpoints Natal:

VJu/ZSaPl – They help each-other grow in a compulsive way.  

VSu/(MaMo)(UrSu) – Vanessa gets Zac all excited and ready to act, and she reflects that excited energy.

VJu/(SuMe) – Vanessa pushes Zac to communicate

VNe/(MaMa) – They act together for an Ideal.

ZUr/(SuUr) – Zac fills Vanessa with electric energy.

ZPl/(NeMo) – Zac feels that Vanessa is a dream come true.

Mixed Midpoints 9V:

ZMe/(VMaSa) – They work to communicate with each-other and their community

VMa/(ZMoJu) – She acts to bring out his feelings.

ZMa/(SatPlu) – EXACT – She has a standard, and he works compulsively to meet it. (within community, in the movies she’s getting him to act “right”)  

ZPl/(MaMa) – They act together compulsively/obsessively

VSu/(MePl) – They’re always talking to each-other and the people around them when they’re together.

VUr/(JuVe) – The electric energy that they have as a pain brings in a luxurious lifestyle, with good friends and laughter.

VNe/(SuSa) – Together, they solidify a dream into the daily life.

VPl/(JuSu)(SaUr) -They grow steady strong in a way that goes against traditional community values.

 Zac Efron Vibe 9 Needs Midpoints:

Mo/VePlu = Zac find culture, the mother, and histories attractive. Needs an embodiment of those compulsive attractions.

Mer/MaPl =He is a compulsive learner within his community.

Ma/SatNep = He is a hard worker when he finds an inspiring group to work for.

Ju/MeMa = He grows as he learns.

Vanessa Hudgens Vibe 9 Needs Midpoints:

Ma/SaUr = Vanessa works hard with electric energy within her community.

Ju/MaPl = She grows through compulsive actions.

Ne/MoJu = Her ideals/ what composes a dreamy experience are/is tied to her growth and understanding of her background and emotions.

Pertinent Composite Charts:

Ven Square Uranus There is a soul mate feeling with strong electric attraction.  

Ven Opp. Uranus with Moon in Trine and Sextile The relationship feels right internally based on historic expectations, along with an electricity that draws the two together.

Ven Sex Saturn The two are internally and attractively connected in a deep and serious way, and that just flows.

 Venus Neptune Sesquiquadrate Subconsciously, each is the ideal of the other, as well as representing an ideal to those they are around.

  Venus Saturn Opposition The two share their serious internal connection with community.

  Venus Trine Saturn Mars They work together, and that feels like a mission they want to take action on.

Venus Saturn Mars Conj.  The work they do together that feels mission based just flows.

 Sun Moon 1/12 They feel young and in love togeth in a way that is satisfying and feels right.

(VePl) opp. Neptune  They are compulsively drawn into beauty and ideals as a couple.

Sun Moon Sextile The relationship feels right, and they share their joy and love for each other harmoniously with others in a restless and playful way.

   Sun Square Moon Chiron The relationship feels right, the two have a lightness and happiness together with start power behind it that easily flows through them.

Special Harmonics Overlap:

Harmonic 13:

Vanessa’s Mars act on Zac’s Venus Neptune Pluto Conjunction in an Opposition.

           Vanessa challenges Zac to act on his deepest, beautiful, dreamy sense of special purpose and self.

V Sun Uranus Acting with Z Moon in Cj. Square

           Z’s Moon acts with Vanessa’s Uranus Sun, so he feels her moods in the moment.

V Uranus trine Z Venus Neptune

           Z pushes V to act out her beautiful inner dreams of the moment, dynamic quality.

 17th Harmonic

Neither Zac nor Vanessa have very strong 17th harmonics, but together that have three  quincunxes. Ven Qqx Mercury Mars meaning they are attractive and active communicators. Pluto Qqx Jupiter meaning they have a compulsive and expansive growth in acting/getting involved in other people’s stories together. And lastly, Jupiter Qqx Jupiter which mean they help each other to expand in this sense.

 19th Harmonic

 They both have strong 19th harmonic patterns, and together it seems to culminate in these ways:

V Jupiter opp Z NepPlu Through studying other cultures and sharing that study, Vanessa helps Zac expand his dreams and sense of what really matters.

Qqx Isotrap involving VSunMoon and Z PlutoUranus

This may speak to why they broke up, Zac was busy exploring the drug culture compulsively and without regard to social expectations while it put a weight on Vanessa’s daily life.

  247th (19 x 13) Harmonic

This harmonic was in the top five for profile scores for both of them. They share a destiny in learning about another culture and experiencing it in their own special way. They made a movie together and learned about what celebrity culture is.

The chart is full of sextiles, meaning that special fate is shared harmoniously with other people. And there is another quincunx isotrap here involving V’s Venus and Z’s Pluto Uranus Mars. This could be interpreted as Zac’s compulsive dive into stardom and drugs, letting it envelop him, was not attractive to Vanessa.

List 5 things that make you happy, then put this in the askbox for the last 10 people who liked or reblogged something from you! Get to know your mutuals, followers and all the wonderful people on here!

omg i just realized that this was still in my drafts 😭😭 i'm sorry em

I'm sad, I wrote like a whole novel and then the stupid page reloaded and I lost everything 😔

Oh well, here we go again...

First of all, thank you for this! I realize that I've mostly been focused on the bad things in my life lately. As people, I think we should just take a minute to consider the positive things in our lives. It can help us feel better about how we're living.

So, here is my list of things that make me happy:

• Seeing my family (especially my grandparents). They live quite a ways away, so when I see them, a couple times a year, I'm practically buzzing out of my skin with excitement.

• Spending time with my friends. Especially now that we've all gone our separate ways for college, the times I get to see them are all the more precious.

• New releases (music and books, mostly). Literally have to put off listening to new albums sometimes because then I immediately want to buy them, of course. Like, when I saw Holly Black's new series (a Novel of Elfhame), I went to the bookstore and bought both because she's definitively one of my favorite authors of all time (+ Brigid Kemmerer + Rick Riordan + Stephanie Garber + a few others that I can't recall right now). So yes. New releases.

• Buying things. I think I may be (read as most definitely am) a compulsive buyer...? Yeah anyways. Shopping is one of my joys in life.

• Animals. I mean. Do I even have to explain? ANIMALS. Cats. Birds. Rabbits. Tigers. You name it. I really want a cat...

And (i know this is the sixth, but do i care no i don't) this man. This man makes me happy. His smile overjoys me to an unhealthy extent.

(also gonna add lino to the list because reasons)

Hi past and future charlie,

I’m really happy to tell you that you didn’t get rejected from the Florence program—you were waitlisted and you got in!! In exactly 2 weeks we’re leaving the country for the first time. I’ve never been so excited. We’re going to have an amazing time.

You were right about surprised by scripture being good for me. Joyce, Brandon, Genna, and Natalia are all so nice and I’ve had a lot of fun joining another club, too. So much so that I’m gonna be the president next semester, believe it or not.

I’ve also been connecting back to religion by dabbling in paganism, specifically Celtic and Roman neopaganism. I really like the Morrigan and Brigid. And of course, writing about and studying Vestals for so long makes me feel connected to Vesta. I’m bringing some Vesta incense from Enchanted and some make shift salsa mole to the temple of vesta when I arrive in Rome. Hopefully I don’t get kicked out for lighting a fire. I don’t know if I am capable of actually believing.

You didn’t see this one coming, but the student revolution for Palestine has begun. I lived outside for about a week before my body started to give up on me. It was possibly one of the most important weeks of my life. It gave me so much hope for the future, and I am so grateful I was able to be a part of it. I hope it never stops. I never will. I hope one day you can read this with the knowledge that Palestine is free.

I won’t see Liam for a while, which sucks. I’ll miss him, but I feel like I can’t tell him that. There’s a high chance we’ll only be able to hang out for a couple months after I’m back. I’ve grown pretty fond of him. I know that would scare him, though.

Goals for the next month:

Finish my play, kiss a cute boy, try 3 new foods, swim in the Mediterranean, make 3 new friends, spend 2 days in Pompeii/Naples, try some wine, go to a queer club, order food in Italian, walk every day, see art every day, learn so much history, and be so unapologetically autistic about it

Right now I just need to focus on getting packed up and ready for Italy. Speaking of which, I should probably stop typing now.

Ciao!

Charlie

Facts about my S/I Saint Bridgette:

Remember ‘Lisa’ from Hetalia that encountered France and whatnot? Ok well bridgette has a similar thing except she was caught on the Hohenzollern castle grounds strayed away from the tourist group. She was taking pictures and admiring the castle. (He loves castles and fairytales) that’s how she encountered Prussia. Because Prussia had noticed a certain individual that kept coming and visiting his domain which raised suspicions and got him intrigued, it entertained him even more that the fact she had came not just once but 8 more times after this.

Bridgette loves to take pictures and record any information she can learn from history or anything about someone in general, so when she was on the tour, she couldn’t help but to write about the Prussian kingdom being a “strong, but prideful young man who has a secret soft and emotional turmoil side to him”.

After he noted that she could see him, he started to question her and tease. He had found a new victim to terrorize… and even told her he was gonna bind her to his castle. And got very uh, clingy (cough) about this.

Saint Brigid/Brigitte or more commonly known in her current life, Brii or Bridgette, is a woman of black hair (she also is depicted to having purple hair) and greenish blue eyes, depicted as how some believe this is how she truly looked like, the Saint.

She loves to drink and often times gets into trouble doing so. She loves to help others especially with emotional guidance and philosophical teachings. She’s always typing or writing on her smartphone about all the things she witnesses and encounters and always chatting with someone about their problems and being a “listening ear”.

She loves horses, chickens and her dog King and cats, she’s very partial to animals and farming. Often finds herself sometimes mentioning about how she used to farm when she was younger. She loves lambs and sheep~

She has lived and travelled many places in the world during her past lives, she’s lived through 9 lives, she knows of her origin past life and the one after so, but details get quite fuzzy after the third one …

Her favorite colors is black, purple, pink and turquoise.

When she was in her past life has Saint Bridget of Sweden, she was a princess and a royal at the time. So that explains her regal and moments of himedere attitude.

She’s close friends with Israel Chan, they talk all the time.

A bit of an emotional crybaby and a doormat, most of the time she’s usually the one who accepts others (unconditionally), but if she’s really hellbent on saying no, she loses her temper.

Motherly attitude and childish at the same time (how the fuck does that work? We don’t know.)

Secret fangirling of Prussia in her journals and sketchbooks when she draws him.

She has a pretty good relationship with Sweden, she talks with him sometimes about the royalty of the country and may go and spend time having a tour or two with him. They are pals.

Loud and excitable sometimes, always has an informal and vulgar mouth, she curses a lot and shouts if she’s upset or excited.

Loves to gamble and do reckless things, she loves dangerous things also.

Supposedly she once was the consort of the god of the dead, also known as the king of the void. But she doesn’t want to talk too much about that.

Sometimes speaks in broken different languages, German, French, Italian and Swedish. She too also speaks a bit of Gaelic, Hebrew and Yiddish.

Has a very large figure and frame, has big breasts (bigger than Ukraine, it’s due to she has constant need to give others so much unconditional LOVE!) and big hips and thighs and belly, and very large butt. It’s all to do with the overfilling emotions that she has and the love she wants to give everyone.

Treats Italy like a child, she likes to play and cuddle him and even though he and Romano get on her nerves, she still teased and loves on them by giving headpats and hugs.

Most of the time she’s known for giving the nations hugs and headpats and talking with them in “flirtatious” manner as Germany words it, she’s completely unaware that she is “flirting” and views it as maternal interaction or friendship.

Is often tired, and sometimes spaced out. She loves naps and indulging in snacks and alcohol.

She’s not dirty but she is messy.

She’s “dirty” in another way, hell of a masochist. But has her dominant “mommy” moments!

She has a rocky but very loving relationship with Germany, he’s mean as hell to her sometimes and may say some things that he doesn’t mean to, but in the end he’s always apologizing and trying to make her feel better despite how “annoying and insolent of a brat.” She is. He says he just has high expectations of a woman her age to act like it and grow up a little. But deep down we know secretly he loves taking care of her at times.

She is seen running back and forth from Germany’s house to the Hohenzollern castle.

She’s a bit of a hoarder, she has a lot of Knick knacks, cultural items, snacks and plushies, perfume and make up and hair products. She also has lots of sketchbooks and notepads. And there’s a few alcohol bottles in her room (schnapps and rum and beer).

My thoughts on... Captain Marvel 2019 (#22-26) "The New World"

So after reading 'Captain Marvel: The End', it's time to continue the 2019 Captain Marvel run! I've read 'Captain Marvel: The End' at the perfect time it seems as this next arc really expands on that story.

I was really excited to see them follow up on the events of 'Captain Marvel: The End', especially in such a crazy way. It was really nice to see all of those characters in the future back as they're all pretty unique. However the character that stood out the most of me in this was a new addition, Brigid. She's a really cool character and I love the mini character arc she went through. From not seeing herself as a hero (which unconciously made herself feel unworthy) to finally becomming worthy and the hero she was meant to be. This is pure speculation on my part but I like to think that her feelings of not seeing herself as a hero and as unworthy come from feeling that she could never live up to her dad. Because when she finally becomes worthy she talks about how she isn't her father and how she'll never be, but that she's Brigid and that's she's worthy. It's definetely a character that I would love to see be explored more in the future. Another thing that i really liked is how present Captain Marvel's reaction to the future mirrors that of her future version. It was cool to see the parallels between that. I do love these arcs where Carol gets trapped in a completely different enviroment and is forced to adapt. It really shows her skills as a hero in such a great way. The way she is able to adapt, strategize, form alliances and ultimately overcome whatever is thrown at her. It's so fun to read! Her transformation at the end after being powered up by Brigid was also incredibly cool, the design was so unique and looked so powerful. I was stunned when the I turned the page and they revealed her new powered up look. It feels like an early version of her permanent transformation in 'Captain Marvel: The End' in some ways. It also interestingly had some elements from her suit in the 'Last Avenger' arc. I also liked her dynamic with Emma Frost, they're a very fun duo to watch at times. I do am excited for the opportunities that could come out of this arc. Now that Carol knows about the end of the world and how it happens. Will she try to prevent it? And can she? I really wonder if that's where this run will be heading. Slowly building up to the moment that destroyed earth and how she'll try to prevent it. I definitely do get a feeling that's what they're setting up to be the finale of this run. So i'm curious to see if I'll be right about that. I would love to see it happen because it would give 'Captain Marvel: The End' even more meaning. I love that they made that comic play such an importance in this arc and run. It's really cool to see it tie in so perfectly despite it being a standalone story that isn't attached to anything. It's also super clever and if it does end up playing an even more important role it's going to be awesome to see. It's also going to be interesting to see what they'll do with Ove, now that he's in the present. I hope that they'll follow up on that as they never really followed up on the Nuclear Man & Som storyline (maybe they still will who knows!). Funnily enough I feel like those two arcs have a lot in common in terms of story. I also wanted to point is that I love the small costume redesigns all of Carol's friends got. They look really cool and Hazmat new suit in particular really stood out to me. I will say it is kind of funny how the star on Captain Marvel's costume seems to get bigger with each arc. Finally the Carol & Rhodey breakup was pretty interesting to me and I get where Carol is coming from. Seeing the future and realizing that you aren't meant for each other must really hurt, especially when you meet his future daughter. And I totally get that Carol doesn't want to stand in the way of that daughter being born. At the same I understand Rhodey being upset over Carol throwing away their relationship over a potential future that might not exist. It's a pretty complex issue to break up over so I wonder how they'll handle Carol & Rhodey dealing with it. As both of them seem to be in a pretty rough spot at the end of this arc.

This was a pretty fun arc and I love how it tied in so well to 'Captain Marvel: The End'! It was great to see all the characters from that comic back while introducing amazing new ones like Brigid. She definitely was the standout character for me in this. I absolutely love this run's ability to create new characters that are instantly interesting and makes you want to learn more about them. Enchantress in this was also really interesting and I loved her struggle with both loving and fearing her son, it was really interesting to see her struggle with supporting her son in what he wanted but still doing it because she loves him as a mother. All in all this arc had a lot of amazing moments in it and all the characters in it were great (despite it sometimes being hard to keep track of everyone). I am really excited to see what they'll do now that Carol has learned about what the future has in store and now that Ove is in the present!
