#but much more close knitted

[aestheticitii]

you know what i think would be funny?

if, in the bad timeline, robin was basically the tuxedo mask to chrom's sailor moon, but like, actively helpful but by accident. granted, i know nothing about sailor moon beyond that one meme, but she just shows up when the shepherds are in trouble.

the kicker is that she does not want to be there at all.

robin: "oh no, oh no no no, there are plegian soldiers nearby and they've started chasing me. i need to hide, and fast!"

chrom: "robin?? hey, robin! robin!" *waves arms so that everyone and their grandma realize where she is*

robin: "oh god, not you."

none of the shepherds realize that she's related to validar. they just think she's a rebel or something and accept her with open arms. but she keeps her distance because she knows she's grima's heart and chrom especially is in grave danger just being with her

she's never successful because someone is always like, "hey why don't you stay with us for the night" and then the entire group is crowding her like "stay with us!"

and chrom has to rescue her every time so at some point, he just asks her to take a walk with him so they can be faraway when she leaves and doesn't get crowded

but when she starts to leave, she feels bad about not saying bye to everyone.

it's basically the moment where she actively acknowledges that she cares for them and the moment chrom realizes he fell in love.

Drifting Stars headcanon where Mabel and Ford use the "we're father/daughter" story so often to avoid suspicion that Mabel calls him "Dad" instead of "Grunkle Ford" now.

Ford has a reasonable amount of emotions about this and does not nearly cry the first time Mabel calls him "Dad" outside of lying to people.

Just knitting things:

•Getting sent that "No grandma, like this!" "Oops i made a scarf" meme monthly

•"Do you know how to make this?" *hands me a picture of an obviously crocheted granny square* (i can crochet too but like. C'mon)

•"Can you make me this" yes but it will be $4 per row, $3 if you handwrite me an apology

•"Can you knit me a sweater?" Absolutely not. I won't even knit myself a sweater

•Endless. Old. Lady. Jokes.

•"Do you really need more yarn?" Yes. Yes i do.

•Being sent art of characters knitting and you can just tell the artist has never seen anyone knit before

•Being given gorgeous, probably expensive yarn as a gift but the skein is too small to make anything and you have no idea where it was bought from

•Dropping a stitch. (People who crochet exclusively do not know how lucky they are, at least skipping a stitch won't destroy the project)

•The endless internal debate of intarsia vs Swiss darning (intarsia sucks. You can pry Swiss darning from my cold dead hands)

•Never ask me to make the 4th doctor's scarf. I'll kill you.

•Getting a weird amount of automatic respect from old ladies who otherwise wouldn't like you (the big ass septum ring seems to dissappear the second I'm holding some knitting needles i swear)

•Not remembering if you left off on a knit row or a purl row

•Spending 4 hours online looking for the perfect safety eyes (legend says I'm still looking)

every so often i think about how if i ever make a post or something that blows up, i'll immediately be harassed en masse by people claiming i'm a zionist

why do i feel like there’s some sort of veil between me and the rest of the world

[the-martyrfication-of-the-matron]

Maybe (definitely) controversial take but… I don’t care for Eddie that much

Like I don’t HATE HIM, I like him, I think he’s a good character, I think the show would suffer without him. But I just… I don’t think he’s GREAT. Like well written? Absolutely. Ryan also does a great job acting him. But there’s just something about Eddie as like… a person, as much as you can say that about a fictional character, that just doesn’t… click with me.

Maybe I’m just not an Eddie kind of guy. And I think that’s okay. But I do think it definitely does influence my opinions on things like Buddie, for example. Which, of course, I would be happy to see. But it’s not something I immediately rush for bc Eddie’s just… not a character I consider much. Just like… generally…

If I think about characters in the 118, I immediately go to Chim and hen and Buck and Bobby… Eddie has always just felt a little disconnected…

Idk.

Maybe I just need to write him and Chim chilling at a bar together, or him babysitting Denny and Mara to like… sew him into the fold a bit. Like in my mind.

If anyone else has any thoughts about this or something let me know bc I am like genuinely very happy to change my opinion on this, lol. Like I love changing my mind about characters it’s so fun. Tell me why I should adore this fully grown emotionally damaged man.

Scarlet and Violet, performance wise really lacking to the point where it's obvious there needs to be changes to how staff need to be treated better and given more time to work, are really some of the best games in the mainstream series I've ever played and I just really want to talk forever about how amazing it all is

[ct-hardcase]

we were kind of talking about this on twitter but god it really does get to you how few women bell prominently has in his life, and the few that are are just...discarded by the narrative

hi i just finished the first five episodes of house of the dragon and i am so so obsessed w the whole family and love as rot and sickness theme it is done so well!

also hello costume department i see the byzantine influences and i hear you. lovely. the sets are all so beautiful but i truly wish that it was not so painfully obviously green screen every time they are on a boat but what can u do! at least the dragons look mostly fine even if the sound design could be cooler and/or more creative but ig they were bound by whatever GoT did first and i havent watched that one yet so i'll ignore this.

anyway the gender of it all!!! every targaeryen ever has one (1) dream job and it is visenya but also every monarch has only ever been a king and the daughterson girlboy failchild dreamheir of it all....... so glad older rhaenyra will be played by a nonbinary actor bc yeah. yeah. exactly. but also milly alcock is so so good at the teenage defiance and the naivete and the simultaneous disillusionment with everything and the excitement about it like yes!!! yes!!!

i will not say anything abt any other characters or ny of the relationships lest this post get 3k words long but i am absolutely looking forward to watching it all unfold and unravel and also watching that old man literally fall apart. cinema <3

i WILL however say: ramin djawadi my eternal goat u managed to be my most played artist back in 2017 when i wasnt even watching GoT just bc ur music goes so fucking hard and u've done it again. idk if i correctly connected the dots but the one melody which i am p sure is rhaenyras theme is so delicious mwah. u will end up on my spotify wrapped again beloved ♡

today in the wild I came across a phrase to the effect "...And this [pair of ethical axioms about what constitutes quality of life for purposes of discussion about disability and coma prognosis, based on the opinion of one person who has not ever been in a coma or disabled thereafter] suggests that maybe, just maybe, [relevantly comatose or recovering or disabled] people may have quality of life sufficient to make them ethically relevant"

that's ... not, um, normally considered to be what makes people "ethically relevant" in the world where all the people are and there's sunshine and grass and things, but, you know what, ok jennifer, A for effort! :) gold star for you, philosopher extraordinaire, moral lodestar for people unsure what to do with granny, paragon of ethical conduct!

feeling like you're "not disabled enough" to quit your job or at least ask for accommodations fuckin' sucks

i love being a writer because it allows for me to ask questions like “hey, how can i kill someone inconspicuously in a hospital if they’re hooked up to an iv?” and my medical whump expert friend to respond with “oh, air would work for sure”

i was afraid to use google but who needs google when you have writer friends… love them
