#but she’s forgiven

If money doesn’t buy you happiness then why does it buy dogs

Something doesn’t add up here

the revelation that claudia’s rebirth was such a twisted and horrible moment, with louis dragging her like she was a thing, a stranger who neither of them knew but he kept saying over and over “our daughter, our beautiful little daughter” to lestat, really solidified the way she was never the main character of her own story. she was always an accessory to some or the other of louis’ whims: his guilt, his loneliness, his conflict of being a killer, his rocky relationship with lestat. there was love there, love from both her fathers, but it was never enough. lestat saw her too much as a wretched mirror held up to his own self, and louis was always too steeped in his own feelings to care enough about hers. claudia’s story truly was the greatest tragedy in this tale, treated horribly by every man around her, even her fathers, relentlessly exploited and brutally ignored, always second and never first. the only one who loved her the way she deserved to be loved was madeleine, and the moment she truly had her, her happiness was torn from her. and just before she died, she got to see someone actually choose her in her entirety, not for what she can be but for who she is, and it still wasn’t enough. she still burned alive in the sunlight. the love was there, but it wasn’t enough to save her.

I need someone who is funnier than me to write a fic about the time between when Steve and Robin start working together and Dustin coming back from summer camp because I know that Steve annoyed the fuck out of her.

Like I just know Robin rolls into work every morning hot and sweaty from having to scooter there, locked and loaded with mean sarcastic comments, and there’s Steve. With his dumb hair and his socks matching his uniform complaining that he had to open alone (they have no customers. He has not counted the register).

Steve doesn’t get her sarcasm yet so sometimes she’ll say something and can see that it hurt his feelings. He’ll stalk off to pout and she’ll think about apologizing, but then she’ll hear him think aloud, “I wonder if I can juggle?”

Followed the sound of broken glass.

hey. hey... chat,

i think we need to discuss an incredibly plausible probability right now:

we've figured out how the life system works. if a red or yellow kills a player of a higher colour than them, then they get their life.

pearl “has died at least 1 time per session so far” pearlescentmoon is on her yellow life. she has two lives left.

scott "always sacrificing himself for his allies" smajor is on six.

the likelihood of scott killing himself for pearl again is statistically high.

and i think it will be a beautiful parallel. because this time she really will forgive him after all.

“it doesn’t make sense for osha to forgive qimir so quickly. its terrible writing.”

who said she forgave him? we can have complex feelings for people. stop being so boring. she realized the jedi and the man she considered a father had been lying to her for sixteen years. the man who framed her sister and was complicit in the destruction of her coven. he did not once apologize but instead tried to justify his actions. after having her entire belief system shattered, she lashed out in anger.

she joined qimir in exchange for her sister’s life and because she’s curious about the other side of the force. from amandla’s recent interview, osha has never been manipulated in the choices she’s made. her decisions are hers and hers alone

I keep thinking about the fact that a few people know who Venti is at this point, and honestly I like the idea that most people had figured out who he was and just decided not to deal with it.

Like yeah, he looks like the statue and there's a very good chance that he's Barbatos, but the shine wears off fast when he's just one of the local bards and seems allergic to anyone actually trying to give him respect. He's nice, and a good bard, and always seems willing to be a listening ear when it's most needed.

You wouldn't think that gods could be broke, but well. There's usually someone who will cover his tab but there's also maybe a few people who are wondering if it's blasphemous to contemplate the fact that the guy who is probably their god is kind of a freeloader.

All in all though, it's kind of nice to think that for all the divine and important stuff he could be doing, he's decided to hang out in this little quiet corner of the world with them.

Also he's probably banned from the church but no one is brave enough to actually ask the nuns, and Barbara refuses to comment.

Tina: Dude, I feel like Fit wants to answer, he can hardly contain his excitement!

Fit: Sorry– I'm just excited to be here, that's all! That's all.

Phil: Wiggling in his seat...

Tina: He really wants to tell us who he wants to kiss, marry, and kill.

Pac: You- you wanna say, Fit?

Fit: Huh?

Pac: Huh?

Tina: Come on Fit, share with the class! 🤭

Bad: Honestly, so many choices to kill!

Fit: Oh, I don't wanna- I don't wanna interrupt Bad.

Ramon: dad what's ur answer?

I'm sooo curious if John's philosophy of forgiveness extends to Alecto. I want to know if Alecto has ever apologized to him for what she did, changing him without explanation and without his consent. He makes excuses for her to Harrow (it's not your fault)(you were so scared) so I'm sure he would have brushed it off if she did. But I want to know if she ever tried.

What would John do if he were offered a sincere apology? Would he even recognize one if he saw it?

POV: it’s lunchtime, Wednesday, January 4th, 2007. You’ve been beaten black and blue by a sports cult. She’s trying to hide your bandages. You wonder if she blames you for her boyfriend’s death. You should ask her. The memorial banner was put up today. You… you keep your mouth shut.

I’m so serious when I say Arthur would be so much cooler if he was a woman

Attempting to get the beast used to a dental hygiene routine is… well, it’s going.

(She stayed that way for a solid 8 seconds despite hating being held belly up so I think it’s safe to say that Mim is not beating the ‘tiny speaker playing elevator music instead of a brain’ allegations any time soon.)

the red shoes has always been my favourite traditional fairytale i think because it's so grotesquely catholic. like being abandoned by god and condemned to an ironic hell for being too obsessed with your own body's ability to make beautiful art and having to sacrifice the thing that defines you - your dancing ability - by cutting off your own feet? that's some medieval religious horror shit.
