Vines Forever Intertwined Ch. 3
Larissa Weems x OC (Fern Rogers)
Larissa and Fern make it to the safehouse.
Authors Note: Sorry this has taken so much time to write! I hope you enjoy!
The shapeshifterâs tone turned aggressive, her arms folded over her chest in a defiant manner, âWe need to go home. We need to get back to the girls.â
Your hands gripped the steering wheel and you kept your gaze alternating between the road before you, the review mirror, and the directions pulled up on your phone. The best you could do at this point was trying to convince Larissa that you needed to keep going. âRiss, Agent Thatcher specifically said we need to stay away from Nevermore. Letâs go to the safe house. We need to rest and come up with a plan.â
âHow can you say that?!â Larissa reached out and hit the dashboard in front of you causing you to jump. You hadnât expected the sudden wave of visceral anger from your wife. âWe have always been perfectly safe back home. If I can survive the Addamses, undead pilgrims, and psychotic ex-lovers, I think I can handle these people.â
It was too late to go back home. The drive would take another day and would necessitate the need to stop for gas - something you were not willing to do considering the assault you both faced in the parking garage. The safe house truly was the safest option right now.Â
âThere is no need for the dramatics. We are a few minutes from the safehouse... After everything that happened, we should just get somewhere safe.â
Larissa fell silent, obviously fuming that you could ever suggest not rushing back home immediately. For what was supposed to be a romantic getaway, you were certainly headed in the opposite direction.Â
You completed the rest of the drive in an agonizing silence.Â
While you drove, you couldnât help but glance over into the passenger seat, but you werenât looking at the shapeshifter. No, you were looking at the handprints melted into the car window - a now permanent fixture to remind you of the life threatening situation you both had been in an hour earlier. You found the warped window to be a terrifying symbol of life or death situations that were likely to come.
When you pulled into the driveway of the safehouse, there was an agent waiting for you both in the front driveway. After the car was in park, Larissa exited the vehicle wordlessly, still giving you the cold shoulder.Â
With a roll of your eyes, you exit the car, coming face to face with the agent you would be staying with. The man was significantly taller than Larissa and you found yourself needing to take a step back in order to look him in the eye. He was undeniably handsome with a thick mane of dreadlocks and a joyful, wide grin, making you feel automatically at ease.
There was a golden glint to his brown eyes as he stretched out a hand, squeezing your hand just a little too hard. He spoke with a deep gravel to his voice, âAgent Morris. Nice to meet you. Letâs get you both inside so I can hopefully provide some clarity on everything you have been through in the past couple of hours.â
âThat would be grea-â
Larissa rounded the car, cutting you off by ordering the agent about. âWe need to get back to Vermont. We have no time to waste by playing spy with your organization. I have a school full of children who need me, two of them being my own, mind you.â
The agent didnât seem phased by the shapeshifterâs demands and rather he offered her a smile and stretched out a hand to greet her as well. âI understand your concern, but you are a logical woman. Your children are more valuable to you alive, and I can assure you that your life and theirs will be in jeopardy if you choose to travel home.â
The headmistress clenched her jaw in response and turned away from you both, striding towards the house defiantly.Â
The agent was kind enough to help you with the bags, offering you a quick notes version of the organization you were up against. You entered the old and cozy home and spotted the straight-faced shapeshifter who aggressively disappointed in you. As much as Larissa seemingly wanted you to sit elsewhere, you took a seat on the couch next to her, ready to hear the agent out.
âThe company known as âOutcast Vitaminsâ or âO-Vitaminsâ is looking to bottle outcast abilities. This Iâm sure you already know, but what was kept from you is the interest the company has on you both in particular.â Agent Morris took a seat across from you and leaned forward, resting his elbows on his knees.Â
âBoth of your abilities are well known in the outcast world and they are more of interest to normies who are looking for a supplement they could take to give them abilities that are a little less... life altering.â As he spoke, he gestured towards you both when referring to your powers and to himself when mentioning lycanthropy. âGrowing plants and shapeshifting-at-will may be a better selling point with the average consumer than lycanthropy or vampirism.âÂ
You inquired deeper, hoping to sell Larissa on the seriousness of the subject, âBut what does that mean? What do they want from us? Do they want our DNA or something? âÂ
âThe process is... painful to say the least. There have been werewolves, vampires, and a siren that have been experimented on for the past few years. Itâs sold as a medical study where people believe they will get paid for a few test trials, but...â Agent Morris glanced down into his hands, hesitating on having to share the survival rate. âAbout half of them survived... The issue with experimenting on the two of you is that your cellular makeup is different from the others. Larissa especially... Shapeshifting is something professional outcast scientists barely understand, let alone a few hacks in a lab. They would experiment and test on you for months before they might get something viable.â
Larissa spoke up, her hand reaching out and protectively squeezing your knee, âAgain, what about my children and students? I have many outcasts that have a variety of abilities. Luring me away from them does not reassure me that they will be kept safe.â The intensity and coldness of Larissaâs tone seemed to have no impact on the agent. You felt the need to wince, knowing Larissa would be willing to escalate the argument if she felt it necessary.Â
âI assure you there is no luring of anybody. We have agents on and around the premises of the school. According to inside sources, the company wants you two. A shapeshifter and a plant manipulator. Not only are your powers perfect for consumers, but they are particularly potent. You are both powerful and very in control of your abilities. O-Vitamins is very aware of your professional and personal history. They know what you are capable of.â
âWe are just educators and mothersâŠâ You rationalize, trying to push away the thought that there were people out to find and potentially harm you.
Agent Morris only smiled and shook his head, âI think we both know that isnât true, doctor.âÂ
ââ
âNot only could we die⊠but they are after shapeshifters. Althea is in danger. Oh my god! What about my parents?â Larissa choked out the words as she dropped herself on the edge of the bed, trying to get the words out before she knew she would begin to cry.Â
She looked up at you with tear-filled eyes, her arms parting as a silent command for you to hug her. You take two steps and position yourself between Larissaâs legs into her open arms. Her arms were soon raveled around you, squeezing you tight and pressing her face into your abdomen.Â
You went about helping Larissa relax in the best way you knew how: unpinning her hair and gently massaging her scalp as you provided her comforting words. âWe have no choice but to trust these agents. They will take care of the kids. Your parents are more than capable of taking care of themselves.âÂ
With her face planted into your abdomen, she shook her head, not wanting to believe everyone would be okay without her there. Larissa was preparing herself for worst case scenarios and you knew how hard it was to pull her out of anxious ruminating once she had already started. Typically, Larissa was the one to pull you out of your own emotional spiraling, but seeing her so vulnerable caused you to jump into action.Â
âHoney, look at me...â You shifted your hands to either side of her face, pulling her away and holding her still as you crouched so as to look up into her eyes. Larissa seemed determined to look away from you for a moment, most likely due to her own embarrassment over crying, but you were more firm in your tone to make sure she knew you were serious. âLook at me.â
With sad (and somewhat pouty) eyes, Larissa met your gaze, shaking her head as more tears pooled in her eyes.Â
While you didnât have a full plan worked out, you needed to distract Larissa somehow and get her attention focused on something she could control. âWe need to finish what we started and we will be back home before we know it.â
Larissa leaned into the touch of your left hand, closing her eyes and sounding more defeated than you had ever known her to be, âHow are we going to take down an entire company? You saw the powers of that man. Iâm sure they have other outcasts that can do more than melt the glass of car windows.âÂ
âI donât know how, but Iâd say it would be worth it to try... How else will we make it home to Al and Vi?â
The shapeshifter paused, sucking in a breath and thinking hard for a moment. When Larissa opened her eyes again, they held a new determination and fire that was much more reminiscent of the woman you fell in love with. âTomorrow we should sit down with Agent Morris. I want to know more about this company and what we have to do. The sooner we get this done, the sooner we will be back home with the kids.âÂ
âThatâs my girl.â You mumble, pulling her face down to press a kiss against her forehead. Releasing her face, you pushed yourself back into a standing position and brought a hand to rest on her cheek once more, âLetâs get a good nightâs rest.â

Recht und Regen
In seinen jĂŒngsten Buch zur Rechtstheorie ("Das Rechtssubjekt und sein Bildungsroman) kommt Karl-Heinz Ladeur auf ein Buch zu sprechen, das mir auch wichtig erscheint und am Herzen liegt. Das ist Caroline Levines Buch Form, Whole, Rhythm, Hierarchie, Network von 2015. Ladeur nennt das Buch bemerkenswert, das ist es. Levine habe ihm eine neue Perspektive auf die Rechtsgeschichte ermöglicht, weil Levines Konzept der Form ĂŒber Niklas Luhmann hinausweise. Ladeurs WĂŒrdigung ist kurz, er betont, dass Levines Perspektive interdisziplinĂ€re Fragestellungen eröffne. Ich kann sagen, warum mich ihr Buch interessiert Im Moment ist das vor allem wegen Aby Warburg, weiter hat das mit meinen Interesse an juridischen Kulturtechniken zu tun. Bei Warburg spielt die Form eine Rolle, die er selbst als Form reflektiert, durch die Regung geht. Man kann insoweit sogar Warburgs Rechtsbegriff als Form einer Regung definieren: Recht ist danach Form, durch die Regung geht. Recht ist Form, die regt oder geregt ist. Ich spreche von Regung, weil der Begriff der Regung dem Begriff des Rechtes nĂ€her ist als der Begriff der Bewegung. Ich habe aber kein Problem damit, Regung mit Bewegung zu ĂŒbersetzen. Warburg schöpft den begrifflichen Umfang voll aus, auch wenn er damit keine allgemeine Rechtstheorie und keine allgemeine Theorie der Regung entwirft. Warburg benutzt den Begriff der Regung nicht. Auf Tafel 79 entfaltet er aber mit Bildern eine Reflexion zu jenem Recht, durch das Regung geht, die auch als Reflexion zum dem Begriff des Zuges verstanden werden kann. Auf den Begriff des Zuges kommt Warburg im Kontext der LatervertrĂ€ge, er assoziert offensichtlich das Tragende und Trachtende eines Vertrages oder einer Betrachtung im Kontext von Sprachen, deren Formen so pendeln, wie es auch die Bilder tun sollen. Das Tragende und Trachtende tauchen als Begriffe nicht nur im Begriff des Vertrages (contract/ tratatto) oder der Betrachtung wieder auf. Sie tauchen auf in Begriffen wie draw(ing), draft(ing) oder train(ing). Vermutlich assoziiert Warburg schon die Letter, vermutlich hat er die Vorstellung, dass die Bewegung, die von Trag zu train oder draw oder draft fĂŒhrt solchen Bewegungen von Bildern entspricht, die er in ihren historischen, geographischen, gesellschaftlichen und psychischen VerlĂ€ufen sorgfĂ€ltig aufzeichnet. Es ist, als verstĂŒnde er Wörte wie Körper, die von hier nach da pendeln und die dabei durchgehend bewegt sind. Sprich: Die Regung verlĂ€uft nicht nur im oder durch das AuĂen der Form, sie geht auch durch die Form und verĂ€ndert sie. Ein Laut verhĂ€rtet, der andere wird weicher, die Vokale werden umgestimmt, so kann aus einen a ein ai werden, aus einem d ein t, aus ch wird g oder k. Die Form ist gezogen und zĂŒgig, sie ist der Zug des Rechts, sein Tragendes und Trachtendes, sein Zeichnendes, Planendes oder Entwerfendes, sein Riss.
Warburg ist nicht derjenige, der interdisziplinĂ€re Fragestellungen eröffnet. Auch Levine ist es nicht. Kein Rechtswissenschaftler wird sein Disziplin durch eine LektĂŒre Warburgs oder Levines erhöhen oder etwas herunterfahren, wird seinen Horizont deswegen nicht erweitern oder verengen. Treffend nimmt Ladeutr aber an Levine etwas wahr, was man auch an Warburg wahrnehmen kann, das ist die Aufmerksamkeit fĂŒr Formen, die wandern und dabei von einem System zu anderem wandern. Ich meine, dass die Forschung zu juridischen Kulturtechniken diese Aufmerksamkeit teilt, die auch eine Aufmerksamkeit fĂŒr das ist, was Ladeur in den Passagen als Aufmerksamkeit fĂŒr die Bewegung gesetzte Form nennt. Weiter glaube ich, dass Levines Aufmerksamkeit fĂŒr Musterung und Takt weiter ĂŒber juridische Kulturtechniken in archĂ€ologischer Perspektive, also u.a. anderem auch in Bezug auf die Geschichte und Theorie des Umgangs mit Bildern, mit decorum, mit Schichtung nachdenken lĂ€sst.

Kapitel 7
Die ersten zwei Wochen in Aneva waren wie im Flug vergangen und Marie war ĂŒberrascht, wie schnell sie sich an ihren neuen Alltag gewöhnt hatte. Ihr neues Zimmer, begann sich allmĂ€hlich mit Leben zu fĂŒllen. BĂŒcher, verstreute Notizen und kleine persönliche GegenstĂ€nde fanden nach und nach ihren Platz und verliehen dem Raum eine AtmosphĂ€re von Zuhause.
Gerade als sie sich in ihre Kursvorbereitungen fĂŒr die kommende Woche vertiefte, riss ein unerwartetes Klopfen an der TĂŒr sie aus ihren Gedanken. Ein wenig ĂŒberrascht fand sie Ella vor, die sich lĂ€ssig an den TĂŒrrahmen lehnte. Ellas Gesichtsausdruck war wie immer schwer zu deuten und auch ihre Stimme klang wie immer monoton, als sie fragte: âHi. Kann ich dir einen Tee bringen?â
âOh.. ich habe schon einen, danke,â erwiderte Marie verblĂŒfft. Ella war die Mitbewohnerin, mit der sie am wenigsten zu tun hatte. Dass sie plötzlich in ihrem Zimmer stand und noch dazu eine freundliche Geste anbot, war mehr als unerwartet.
âOkay.â Ella zuckte mit den Schultern, als ob ihr das GesprĂ€ch bereits zu viel wĂ€re, und drehte sich schon fast wieder um. Doch dann hielt sie plötzlich inne. âIch wollte nur, dass du weiĂt, dass ich Scott wirklich mag,â fĂŒgte sie zögerlich hinzu, wobei ihre Stimme uncharakteristisch nervös klang. Es war offensichtlich, dass ihr diese Worte schwer ĂŒber die Lippen kamen.
Marie runzelte verwirrt die Stirn. Was sollte das bedeuten? Scott war ihr kaum in den Sinn gekommen, geschweige denn in Verbindung mit Ella. Sie dachte kurz nach, bevor sie vorsichtig antwortete: âFalls du Angst hast, dass ich etwas Schlechtes ĂŒber dich zu Scott sage: Das brauchst du nicht.â
âCool,â erwiderte Ella scheinbar lĂ€ssig, doch Marie bemerkte, wie sich ihre Haltung entspannte. Zum ersten Mal schenkte Ella Marie ein kleines, fast schĂŒchternes LĂ€cheln. âDann viel SpaĂ beim Lernen,â sagte sie, bevor sie den Raum verlieĂ.
Marie blieb perplex zurĂŒck. Sie lehnte sich in ihrem Schreibtischsessel zurĂŒck und lieĂ die unerwartete Begegnung auf sich wirken. Ăberraschungen gibt es, dachte sie bei sich und schĂŒttelte leicht den Kopf. Plötzlich fiel ihr Blick auf die Uhr.
âMist,â flĂŒsterte sie, als ihr der Gedanke wie ein Blitz durch den Kopf schoss. Hastig begann sie, ihre Unterlagen zusammenzupacken. Sie hatte beinahe vergessen, dass sie heute ihr erstes Treffen mit Max fĂŒr ihr gemeinsames Projekt hatte. Seit ihrem StreitgesprĂ€ch letzte Woche hatten die beiden kaum miteinander geredet, und Marie hatte den Termin unbewusst die ganze Woche lang aus ihrem GedĂ€chtnis verdrĂ€ngt. ---
Als Marie schlieĂlich in der Bibliothek ankam, sah sie Max bereits an einem der hinteren Tische sitzen, umgeben von BĂŒchern und Notizen. Er blickte auf, als sie nĂ€her kam.
âSorry fĂŒr die VerspĂ€tung,â sagte Marie atemlos, wĂ€hrend sie ihr Zeug auf den Tisch legte und sich auf einen Stuhl fallen lieĂ.
âKein Problem,â antwortete Max, aber seine Stimme klang zurĂŒckhaltend, fast formell. Eine kurze, unbehagliche Stille legte sich ĂŒber den Raum, als beide versuchten, ihre Unsicherheit zu ĂŒberspielen. Das GesprĂ€ch von letzter Woche hing noch immer in der Luft, und sie wussten beide nicht recht, wie sie miteinander umgehen sollten.
Nach einem Moment der Stille rĂ€usperte sich Max und fragte: âSollen wir beginnen?â Marie nickte schnell, froh, sich auf die Arbeit konzentrieren zu können.
--
Bald waren sie tief in die Materie ihres Projektes vertieft. Die Diskussionen forderten ihre Aufmerksamkeit, sodass sie ihren Zwist fast vollstĂ€ndig vergaĂen. Nach Stunden konzentrierter Arbeit saĂen sie da und diskutierten die letzten offenen Punkte fĂŒr ihrer Zwischenabgabe.
âOkay, uns fehlt noch, wie wir das Thema MilitĂ€r und Klimawandel angehen sollen,â begann Max und blĂ€tterte durch seine Notizen. âIch schlage vor, dass wir als China in eine starke Armee investieren und das Thema Klimaschutz auĂen vor lassen.â
Marie runzelte die Stirn und dachte einen Moment nach, bevor sie antwortete: âNein, ich glaube, wir sollten einen anderen Ansatz wĂ€hlen. China profitiert viel stĂ€rker von einer robusten Wirtschaft. Wir sind weltweit fĂŒhrend in der Herstellung von Photovoltaik-Anlagen, Windkraftanlagen, Batterien und Elektroautos. Unser Fokus sollte darauf liegen, diesen Marktanteil zu halten und weiter auszubauen. Eine minimale Investition ins MilitĂ€r reicht aus, um uns im Ernstfall zu verteidigen, aber wirtschaftlich sind wir stĂ€rker als wie eine Kriegsmacht.â
Max schaute sie beeindruckt an, und ein anerkennendes LĂ€cheln huschte ĂŒber sein Gesicht. âDu bist wirklich gut in diesem Kram,â sagte er und klang aufrichtig beeindruckt, wĂ€hrend er an seinem Laptop tippte.
Marie lĂ€chelte. âDanke. FĂŒr jemanden, der behauptet, kein Interesse an Politik zu haben, bist du aber auch ziemlich gut informiert. Bist du sicher, dass du ins Familienbusiness einsteigen willst? Als Prinz stehen dir viele Wege offen.â
Max lehnte sich zurĂŒck und seufzte. âNope,â antwortete er und lĂ€chelte, bevor er kurz zögerte. âDarf ich dich was fragen⊠Nervt es dich manchmal, dass du die Thronfolgerin bist?â
Marie war ĂŒberrascht von dieser plötzlichen Wendung des GesprĂ€chs. Es war ein Thema, mit dem sie sich selten bewusst auseinandergesetzt hatte. âManchmal,â gab sie ehrlich zu.
Sie ĂŒberlegte kurz, ehe sie Max eine Gegenfrage stellte: âUnd du, denkst du nie darĂŒber nach, was du machen wĂŒrdest, wenn du Thronfolger wĂ€rst?â
Max atmete tief durch. âNiemals. Ich habe vier Ă€ltere Geschwister, also ist das sowieso nicht realistisch. Und meine Eltern wollen jetzt schon mein ganzes Leben bestimmen. Keine Ahnung, wie viel schlimmer das wĂ€re, wenn ich König werden wĂŒrde.â
Marie nickte langsam, wĂ€hrend sie darĂŒber nachdachte. Das GefĂŒhl eines vorbestimmten Lebens war ihr nur allzu vertraut, doch sie war ĂŒberrascht zu erfahren, dass auch Max unter diesem Druck stand. Verwundert blickte sie ihn an. âIch dachte, du kannst machen was du willst.â
Max lachte bitter. âJa, der Vorteil, der Letztgeborene zu sein, ist, dass meine Eltern mich im Alltag weitgehendst ignorieren - oder sich einfach nicht fĂŒr mich interessieren, ich bin mir nicht ganz sicher. Aber wenn es um groĂe Lebensentscheidungen geht â Ausbildung, Beruf, Heirat â haben sie ziemlich strikte Vorstellungen davon, wie mein Leben verlaufen soll, und lassen auch keine Diskussion zu. Sonst wĂ€re ich bestimmt nicht auf dieser Schule.â
Marie zog entsetzt die Augenbrauen hoch. âHeirat?â Wiederholte sie, die Ăberraschung in ihrer Stimme deutlich spĂŒrbar. Auch sie wusste, dass ihre Eltern in ihrer Rolle als Monarchen gewisse Vorstellungen ĂŒber ihren zukĂŒnftigen Ehepartner hatten, doch es war immer klar gewesen, dass die Entscheidung rein bei ihr lag. âDeine Eltern wollen bestimmen, wen du heiratest?â
Max zuckte mit den Schultern. âSie versuchen es zumindest.â
âWas wirst du tun? Kannst du deinen Eltern nicht sagen, dass das keine Option ist?â bohrte Marie nach.
Max lachte trocken, als ob er sich schon lange an diese RealitĂ€t gewöhnt hĂ€tte. âDu kennst meine Eltern nicht. Sie haben immer die Kontrolle ĂŒber alles: meine Finanzen, meine Wohnung, meine Sicherheit. Es ist fast unmöglich, sich gegen sie durchzusetzen. Mein Vater hĂ€tte mich mit 16 beinahe mal auf die StraĂe gesetzt. Aber ich schwöre dir- ,â Max hob entschlossen die Hand, â- sobald ich mein eigenes Geld verdiene, wird mein Vater mich nie wiedersehen. Bis dahin halte ich einfach durch und verschiebe alles so lange wie möglich. Der Weg des geringsten Widerstandes.â
Marie beobachtete ihn mit wachsender Anteilnahme. Zum ersten Mal seit langer Zeit verspĂŒrte sie eine Dankbarkeit fĂŒr ihre eigene Familie. Ihre Eltern hatten zwar hohe Erwartungen an sie, aber sie schienen weit weniger strikt zu sein als die von Max.
âDas tut mir leid,â sagte sie mitfĂŒhlend. âIch wusste nicht, dass dein Vater so kontrollierend ist.â
Max blickte Marie an und schĂŒttelte amĂŒsiert den Kopf, als er ihren Gesichtsausdruck beobachtete. âOh nein, kein Mitleid bitte. Damit kann ich nichts anfangen,â sagte er und begann, seine Sachen zusammenzupacken. âKomm, wir haben genug gearbeitet. Lass uns was unternehmen. Du solltest mal die Gegend rund um Aneva kennenlernen.â
Verdutzt blickte Marie ihn an. âWas willst du machen? Es ist schon fast sechs Uhr.â
Max lĂ€chelte geheimnisvoll. âIch zeig dir etwas Cooles. Komm einfach.â
âWohin gehen wir?â fragte Marie, die langsam neugierig wurde, auch wenn sie versuchte, unbeeindruckt zu wirken.
âLass dich ĂŒberraschen,â entgegnete Max mit seinem breiten LĂ€cheln und versuchte Marie zu einem schnellen Aufbruch zu bewegen. "Komm, je frĂŒher wir gehen, desto lĂ€nger können wir bleiben."
Marie verdrehte die Augen. "Nein!", protestierte sie.
Max setzte einen charmanten Hundeblick auf, der ihn beinahe unschuldig wirken lieĂ. âBitte, bitte. Denk daran, ich habe ein sehr schwieriges VerhĂ€ltnis zu meinen Eltern.â
Marie konnte sich trozt eines inneren Widerstandes ein Lachen nicht verkneifen. âIch dachte, du willst kein Mitleid?â, erwiderte sie amĂŒsiert.
âIch habe gerade meine Meinung geĂ€ndert.â Max zuckte mit den Achseln.
Marie seufzte, aber ihr LĂ€cheln blieb. âNa gut. Aber wehe, wir kommen in Schwierigkeiten.â Etwas widerwillig, aber mit einem breiten Grinsen, packte Marie ihre Sachen zusammen und folgte einem energiegeladenen Max aus der Bibliothek.
---
Marie stieg von ihrem Fahrrad und folgte Max, der sie ĂŒber einen versteckten Waldweg zu einer kleinen Lichtung gefĂŒhrt hatte. Ihr Herz machte einen Sprung, als sie einen kleinen Teich entdeckte, in den ein sanft plĂ€tschernder Bach mĂŒndete.
âOh mein Gott!â Maries Stimme war voller Begeisterung, wĂ€hrend sie die unberĂŒhrte Natur in sich aufnahm. "Es ist traumhaft hier!" Sie liebte es, drauĂen zu sein, und dieser Ort schien wie ein kleines Paradies . Es war das erste Mal, dass sie die sichere Umgebung der Schule verlassen hatte, und sie konnte die neu gewonnene Freiheit fast schmecken.
Max nickte zufrieden und atmete die frische Waldluft tief ein. âIch wusste, dass es dir gefallen wĂŒrde. Aber versprich mir, keinem von diesem Ort zu verraten.â
âMachst du Witze? Ich verstehe schon kaum, warum du mir davon erzĂ€hlt hast. Ich hĂ€tte diesen Ort mit ins Grab genommen.â Marie lehnte ihr Fahrrad an einen alten Baum und betrachtete den idyllischen Teich. âWie hast du das hier ĂŒberhaupt gefunden?â
Max zuckte mit den Schultern und stellte sein Fahrrad neben ihres. âIch bin eben neugierig. Ich habe die Gegend erkundet und bin zufĂ€llig hier gelandet. Seitdem ist das hier mein absoluter Lieblingsort. Ich habe hier noch nie jemanden getroffen.â
âOh, wow. Was fĂŒr eine Ehre.â Marie grinste ihn an, und Max erwiderte ihr LĂ€cheln.
Plötzlich wurde Max Blick lebhaft. âKomm, wir gehen ins Wasser!â Ohne eine weitere ErklĂ€rung begann er, sich die Schuhe auszuziehen.
Marie starrte ihn entgeistert an. âBist du verrĂŒckt?â
âVielleicht ?â erwiderte Max wĂ€hrend er sich bis auf die Unterhose auszog. Mit einem eleganten Sprung tauchte er ins Wasser ein und verschwand fĂŒr einen Moment unter der spiegelglatten OberflĂ€che.
Mit verschrĂ€nkten Armen stand Marie am Ufer und beobachtete ihn skeptisch. âAlso, du weiĂt, dass ich ziemlich Angst habe, jemand könnte ein Foto von uns machen und es an die Presse verkaufen. Und dann nimmst du mich ausgerechnet zum Wildbaden mit?â Ihre Stimme war eine Mischung aus Ernst und Spott.
Max tauchte wieder auf und seufzte. âHierher wĂŒrde nur ein Paparazzi finden, der zufĂ€llig ein begeisterter Pilzesammler ist,â antwortete er gelassen. âAber wenn du dich unbedingt in deiner Paranoia suhlen willst, werde ich dich nicht davon abhalten.â Er tauchte wieder ab, diesmal tiefer, und genoss offensichtlich die KĂŒhle des Wassers.
Marie rĂŒmpfte die Nase. Sie konnte seine Anspielung nicht auf sich sitzen lassen. Sie wusste, dass sie oft ĂŒbervorsichtig war und ungern Risiken einging, doch diesmal siegte ihre impulsive Seite. Entschlossen zog sie sich bis auf die UnterwĂ€sche aus und sprang in den Teich.
Das eiskalte Wasser umschloss ihren Körper wie ein elektrisierender Schauer, und sie fĂŒhlte sich schlagartig hellwach. Max, der inzwischen wieder aufgetaucht war, blickte ĂŒberrascht und lachte laut, als er sie entdeckte. âMit dir hĂ€tte ich heute nicht mehr gerechnet.â, kommentierte er die Situation.
Marie streckte ihm die Zunge heraus. âDu kennst mich eben doch nicht so gut, wie du denkst.â
FĂŒr einen Augenblick genossen beide die Stille des Teichs, die nur vom sanften Rauschen des Bachs unterbrochen wurde. Nach einer Weile rĂ€usperte sich Max und sah Marie mit einem ernsteren Ausdruck an.
âĂbrigens, es tut mir leid⊠Also, dass ich dir nicht gleich gesagt habe, wer mein Vater ist.â
Marie lÀchelte. Sie war froh, dass Max dieses Thema ansprach.
âMir tut es auch leid." Sie stockte kurz. " Du hattest schon einen guten Grund mir nicht gleich zu sagen, wer du bist. Und ich weiĂ, ich kann schon ein bisschen urteilend sein, auch wenn ich es nicht möchte. Aber Isabel hat mir geholfen, die Sache mal aus deiner Sicht zu sehen.â
Max grinste erleichtert. âNa, dann sollten wir Isabel danken, dass sie dich endlich zur Vernunft gebracht hat.â, erwiderte er scherzhaft.
Marie riss empört den Mund auf und schwamm zu ihm hinĂŒber, um ihm zur Strafe eine Ladung Wasser ins Gesicht zu spritzen.
âHey, hey, das war doch nur ein Witz!â rief Max lachend, wĂ€hrend er sich versuchte, das Wasser aus dem Gesicht zu wischen. Einen Moment hielten die beiden Blickkontakt.
âIch bin froh, dass wir das geklĂ€rt haben.â Max's Stimme klang etwas ernster und zitterte, und obwohl das kalte Wasser sicherlich seinen Teil dazu beitrug, glaubte Marie zu bemerken, dass es nicht nur daran lag. Er war nervös. Sie machte ihn nervös.
Max rĂ€usperte sich erneut. âIch wĂŒrde ja gerne noch lĂ€nger bleiben, aber ab 8 Uhr werden die Namen aller SchĂŒler, die das SchulgelĂ€nde verlassen haben, an die Security weitergegeben. Und ich nehme mal an, du bist nicht scharf darauf, dass deine Eltern von deinem Bodyguard erfahren, wo und mit wem du unterwegs bist.â
Marie erstarrte kurz. âDu hast recht. Lass uns zurĂŒckfahren.â
Sie schwamm zum Ufer und drehte sich, leicht verlegen, zu Max um. âWĂŒrdest du kurz wegschauen?â
Max schloss demonstrativ die Augen. âWas denkst du denn, ich bin ein Gentleman.â Geduldig und mit zusammengekniffenen Augen wartete er, bis Marie sich wieder angezogen hatte.
Marie beobachtete ihn grinsend. Sie fĂŒhlte sich glĂŒcklich.

BIRTHDAY: MARCH 10TH 2001 (AGE 21) SEXUALITY: NON-BINARY AROMANTIC ASEXUAL (SHE/THEY)
APPEARANCE: riss is 166cm tall, though they slouch and appear slightly shorter. they're rather pale, with ginger hair that goes down past their shoulders, and large violet eyes. her nose is upturned, and there's freckles covering it.
It's always an uncomfortable sensation, pulling herself back into her body. Actually, no, scratch that. It used to be easy, back when they were young and reveled in the sensation of limbs lengthening, of grown fur and sharp teeth. Back then it was natural, to be a different person, different being every day, other skins feeling better than her own.
Despite everything, despite all the pain it causes her nowadays, it's still comforting; when everything gets too overwhelming, too much, it's easy to slip into the skin of something else, something that can easily get away, something that can't be affected by everything going on around them.Â
But truth be told, they're not quite sure who they are anymore. Maybe they never did. Maybe a lifetime of being someone else will do that to you.
EXTRA NOTES:
her favorite animal is a red panda
the tarot card associated with her is the star
they walk with a cane most days due to chronic pain
as a child, they used to spend a lot of time shifted into a bird, usually a sparrow or a jackdaw

Nonnie, Iâm 100% with you. These people keep showing their true and very ugly colors. But thatâs as much attention as I want to give them for this utter disrespect.
I want to share part of what you wrote though:
âI hope other media outlets stear clear of that kind of bullshit and use D and Ch/uck's beautifully written statements to remember someone that sounds to have been an extraordinary man. Surround yourselves with love and light during this difficult time, C/riss family.â

if you're still doing it... 16, 30, 34, 36, 46 :)
Yoooo, always Danielle!
16. Â How many drafts do you need until youâre satisfied with a project?
I donât really draft as such but I leave gaps to fill. So like Iâll write something and leave an xxxxunpack thisxxxxxxx or xxxxxxmore herexxxxxxx or xxxxword that means such-and-suchxxxx. Iâve never completely rewritten anything. Â
30. Â Favourite idea you havenât started on yet
I canât remember if this was my idea or Rissâ but there was an idea for the Chronicles about Cricket pulling the long con on the Gang and coming out on top, somehow. Itâs never gonna happen cos Iâve sowed my street rat oats now (plus I was keeping everything intertwined with canon for those stories rather than creating something 100% new), but it was a nice idea, for Cricket, anyways.
34. Â What was the hardest scene you ever had to write?
I actually made myself feel physically sick writing the doctor/patient scene in LSF ch. 2, mostly because I still had issues regarding the abuse of reduced-faculties Fluffwald in From Despair to Where. And Comeback Kid was really fucking difficult for obvious reasons, but I legit wanted to see if I could do it (spoiler alert: I could, yay). Also, the fucking in All His Suits Are Torn was kinda taxing because the rest of the fic came out sooo fucking easily, and for the most part my partner was seated next to me while I was uhh, plugging the hole in that fic. (He knows I write, and he knows what I write, but still itâs hard to get into the groove - especially a groove as depraved as that - when youâre not completely alone lmao.)
36. Â Last sentence you wrote
From Evol ch. 2:
So, when Charlie comes with a roar bordering on a scream, Dennis swallows every single drop, knowing without a doubt that the flawless female heâs conjured up for this roleplay would do the same, a coquettish smile adorning her perfect painted lips as she does so. Good girl.
46. Â Do you reread your own stories?
I used to. Nowadays Iâll usually do a grammar sweep with fresh eyes a few days after posting something, but thatâs generally it. I canât see myself ever re-reading my early g*tham stuff because Iâll just cringe and bemoan how little I knew then and end up deleting it all lol.

Oroscopo di Chirya: dal 12 al 18 Settembre 2022
Oroscopo di Chirya: Eccoci Cari amici alle previsioni della prossima settimana, da LunedĂŹ 12 a Domenica 18 Settembre. La settimana si presenta con una calma apparente, che fa quasi spettacolo, raramente il cielo astrologico forma cosĂŹ pochi aspetti sostanziali. Ci sono quelli stagionali, di cui abbiamo giĂ parlato, la Luna Ăš nella sua fase calante, e passa dallâAriete, in congiunzione a Giove, al Cancro, in trigono a Nettuno, e quadrata a Mercurio. Tutti i Pianeti lenti sono retrogradi, anche Mercurio, che lento non Ăš; questo vuol dire che essi scavano nel nostro. profondo, portando alla luce: la voglia di cambiamenti, le insoddisfazioni piĂč profonde, i progetti messi da parte. Il cielo si sta preparando a grandi eventi dalla metĂ di Ottobre, e ne avremo una avvisaglia dal 23 Settembre. Il consiglio Ăš: facciamo chiarezza sulle nostre aspettative, in modo che al cambio dei pianeti, potremmo cogliere le occasioni al volo. Aspetti importanti della settimana - Il giorno 12, La Luna in sestile a Marte offre determinazione ai segni di fuoco. - Il giorno 13 una quadratura della Luna con Plutone offrirĂ qualche succulento scandalo. - Il giorno 14 La societĂ e il mondo femminile saranno alla ribalta, lâuniverso femminile potrĂ far sentire la propria voce. - Il giorno 15, Ăš un giorno di alleanze e patti rinnovati. - Il giorno 16 dobbiamo prestare tutti attenzione, il modo migliore per non far scoppiare risse e malcontenti Ăš lâuso delle parole, grazie a Mercurio unico pianeta in buon aspetto. - Il giorno 17 Ăš un buon giorno per chiamare un amico, fare pulizie nei cassetti, liberarsi di ricordi tossici. - Il giorno 18 Ăš un giorno dove si Ăš incline a spendere, quindi se volete un regalo fatevi accompagnare, se non volete trovarvi in bolletta, non accompagnate nessuno ai centri commerciali, magari datevi ammalato.

Il giorno 16 con la quadratura tra Marte e Venere, lasciate fare agli altri, anche se non condividete. Toro Per voi la settimana Ăš sottotono, in famiglia litigi e screzi sono possibili, meglio stare in solitaria. Con il partner, con un collega o un venditore, prestate attenzione a chi e a cosa vi sta intorno. Meglio il fine settimana, magari fate shopping. Attenzione alle parole il giorno 16, forse perchĂ© tanta voglia di fare da parte vostra, finirĂ con il far innervosire qualcuno; dunque, siate diplomatici e trovate piccoli compromessi. Anche perchĂ© opporsi vi renderebbe invisi, e apparirebbe senza senso o addirittura fuori luogo. Gemelli Oroscopo, La settimana ha molto da dirvi, cogliere le giuste occasioni, per venire a capodi un affare sbagliato. Con lâamore, finalmente, tutto bene. Ogni situazione migliorerĂ . Sogni sereni nel corso della settimana, anche nell'ambito lavorativo, ma grazie alla capacitĂ di concentrazione e riflessione trascorrerete giornate serene.

Sagittario Cari amici nel weekend cercate di non strafare, siete molto delicati in questo periodo dellâanno e anche Marte non vi aiuta di certo nel suo lungo passaggio nei Gemelli. Questa settimana di settembre potrebbe non essere quella sperata nei giorni precedenti. Qualche nota di stress potrebbe fare capolino nel corso delle prossime giornate rischiando di far breccia nell'autostima del Sagittario. Voi muovetevi per proteggere le cose che amate, tenetevi lontani da tensioni e scontri il 18. Nutritevi di ottimismo che Ăš parte di voi e rimboccatevi le maniche. Capricorno Oroscopo di Chirya, Chi sta sperando in un esito positivo o chi invece Ăš in attesa di risposte o conferme, eviti di aspettare in questa settimana. Problemi in famiglia i giorni compresi tra lunedĂŹ 12 e domenica 18 settembre. Ottimo giorno il 19, quando il Sole illuminerĂ lâoscuro Plutone con la sua forza. E nonostante vi sia chi esigerĂ sempre e comunque chiarezza, ecco che voi sarete capaci di un coraggio eccezionale, riuscendo a dire sempre la veritĂ , senza bisogno di ricorrere a espedienti o soluzioni. Lâautunno vi attende con grandi stelle. Acquario Oroscopo di Chirya, La salute prima di ogni cosa, non abusate di cibo poco sano. Per fortuna vi terrete lontano dalle fonti di stress e dalle situazioni negative. Analizzate le persone intorno a voi, e selezionare solo quelle in grado di portare gioia e serenitĂ nella vita. PerchĂ© in settembre avrete a che fare con un Mercurio che rimanda e che ha bisogno di rivedere la progettualitĂ , insomma idee e pensieri non vi saranno troppo dâaiuto, piuttosto vivete step by step, ci saranno tempi migliori. Pesci Oroscopo di Chirya, La settimana Ăš intensa, le attivitĂ che avevate sospeso tempo fa, andranno a gonfie vele. L'amore sarĂ bello per le coppie e i single potranno fare colpo, positivo anche l'ambito economico e lavorativo. Nonostante le opposizioni tra Giove e Mercurio del giorno 18, si tratterĂ di semplici assestamenti di certe posizioni, di piccoli confronti. Questa settimana comincerĂ con unâenergia speciale, per sopportare sia Venere in opposizione con le sue richieste di gentilezza in varie occasioni. Dovrete anche imparare a reagire con concretezza quando servirĂ . Seguiteci, saremo presto con voi per nuove previsioni con un nuovo oroscopo! Read the full article

The Road Trip Ch. 3
Our characters are creating relationships and destroying them. More importantly, they have no idea what is to come next.
this fic has been such a joy to write with my @bri-sonat !!! initially this crossover idea was supposed to be something so much more simple, but em and i just kept writing.... and writing... and writing (and i couldn't be happier about it).
After hours of wasting away at the pool's edge, Larissa retreated indoors in search of a meal, unsure of who to expect wandering about the house. The shapeshifter ducked into the kitchen, pulling her swimsuit cover tighter around her waist when she saw she wasnât alone.Â
Miranda was shoveling cereal into her mouth happily, waving to Larissa and speaking with a full mouth as she entered, âHey, Riss! Can you believe itâs 6 already?â
âI cannot.â Larissa shook her head, opening up the fridge to see what food it was stocked with. The shapeshifter happily pulled a premade salad from the fridge and then began searching around the kitchen for silverware, âHow are you feeling?â
Miranda waved a hand like she was batting away the question, âIâm fine. I was just tired. Brienne was being all chivalrous and overprotective.â She certainly wasnât upset with Brienneâs actions, only a true friend would do something so kind.
âWhatâs her deal anyway? Earlier I told her she was attractive and she was furious with meâŠâ Larissa tried to keep her tone casual and polite, not wanting to rouse any suspicion from Miranda. The headmistress eventually found a fork on her third try at a random drawer and then joined Miranda at the dinner table.
Miranda shrugged as she spectated Larissa, taking a seat across from her, âI dunno. Oh! You should ask Phas, I saw that they were pretty chummy before we started playing.â The constableâs mouth was filled with half-chewed cereal as she spoke, eyes lighting up when she remembered seeing the two women speaking earlier. âI really know nothing about Brienne. Sheâs so, hmmm, whatâs the word Iâm searching for here? Oh! Mysterious!â As she tried to look for the word, she gestured wildly with her free hand, trying to will the adjective to come to mind. The headmistress could almost see the bulb light above the cereal-eating womanâs head once it did.
âIâm certainly not talking to that woman. If I set foot anywhere near her room, I wouldnât doubt harm may come to me.â Larissaâs voice was more of a low murmur, wanting to keep anyone other than Miranda from hearing her. One of the shapeshifterâs hands gripped the edge of the salad bowl, the other manipulating the fork into mixing the salad.
âOh, Weems, you flatter me so. Glad to hear you speak so highly of me.â Both of the women snapped their heads towards the sound of the new voice that had entered their space. Phasma stood in the archway, eyeing both Larissa and Miranda who looked like they had gotten caught with their hands in the cookie jar.
Larissaâs brow furrowed momentarily before the headmistress finally straightened her back and applied a diplomatic smile to her face. For years she had been working with people she didnât quite like, what was another week? The mixing of her salad slowed and Larissa gestured to the empty seats with a nod of her head, âCare to join us, Captain?â
âAre you sure you want me to? After what I heard you two talk about I think itâd be best if I had my dinner up in my room. Donât let me disturb you. Carry on.â Phasma moved into the kitchen fully, making a direct line for the fridge.Â
âIf you wishâŠâ Larissa shrugged, not caring where Phasma chose to eat.
Miranda seemed to have a difference of opinion, her kind nature bubbling to the surface, âNo way! Phas, you have to eat dinner with us! I wanna hear stories about you working for the first order. Iâm sure you have some good ones.â Miranda pointed to a chair directly across from Larissa and her tone was borderline begging Phasma to stay. The constable was hoping all of the women could be friends after the trip, so promoting togetherness was a part of her grand agenda.
Phasma opened the fridge door, turning her upper body as she did to look back at the two women who were sitting at the dinner table. Miranda stared giddily at Phasma, whereas Larissa held intense eye contact with her salad, âWell. If you insist.â Grabbing a protein shake from the fridge, she closed the door and moved to join the constable and headmistress.
âReally? Oh, cool!! I have so many questions. Well, not exactly questions, but I wanna know everything youâre willing to share. How many planets have you been to?â Miranda tried stilling herself, but she was vibrating in her chair from the pure excitement of eating dinner with Phasma. For years, the constable had enjoyed movies and television about traveling in space and now she had the opportunity to sit and talk with someone who had experienced everything she could only dream of.
Larissa glanced up at Phasma at Mirandaâs question, curious herself of the answer. The shapeshifter stabbed at her salad, filling her mouth to avoid her having to join the conversation in any capacity.
âFirst of all, slow down. Second of all, it depends. Planets in total, or planets that are still intact?â Phasma sat down across from Miranda, leaning back in her chair and twisting the lid of her shake open to take her first sip.
Mirandaâs eyes widened at Phasmaâs words, and a grin broke out. Phasmaâs words reminded Miranda of so many of the movies and shows she had watched over her lifetime. She tried to reel in her excitement, but it was near impossible, âBoth? How many planets have you destroyed? Were they a threat to who you have pledged allegiance to?â
âWell. Planets? Too many to count, if I had to venture a guess, I would say fifty, sixty, maybe? As for planets being destroyed, Iâd say half of my previous numbers. If you want a precise number I will have to check my journal. I destroyed them because I felt like it.â Phasma answered all of Mirandaâs quick questions, speaking of her immorality and crimes as if talking about her dinner from last night. Speaking so casually of blowing up peopleâs homes, and for fun, of all things.
Larissa eyed Phasma, unable to hide her calculating look. The shapeshifter found the captain to be strange in many ways, but these stories seemed almost unbelievable. Miranda turned to the headmistress in shock when Larissa asked a question of her own, her tone looking to challenge the captain, âAnd how many people have you killed?â
Phasmaâs eyes shifted from Miranda to Larissa when she spoke up. Her brows cocked in surprise and interest, her eyes analyzing the shapeshifter. She hadnât expected the principal to join in on the conversation, especially not with such a loaded query, âNow that. That, I lost count of many years ago. Stopped counting after I hit one hundred, there wasnât simply any space left in my journals. And it is so hard to count bodies, and body parts when they are blown up and mangled beyond recognition.â The captain wore a fond smile as she spoke, proud of reliving and retelling her vile actions.
Larissaâs lip curled involuntarily at the more gory details, not appreciating the candid reply. The headmistress turned her gaze back down to the salad, trying to regain her will to eat. Miranda, however, only had more questions for the captain, âWait⊠do you work for the good guys or the bad guys?â
Phasma noticed the headmistress' disgusted expression, âIf you didnât want to know, you shouldnât have asked, darling.â The captain turned her attention back to Miranda, choosing to answer the question neutrally, âDepends on who you ask.â She took another sip of her shake as she waited for the constable in front of her to elaborate on the inquiry.
Larissa couldnât hold her tongue, the need for a verbal joust spilling from her mouth when Phasma was done speaking, âAnd you kill to- What? Fill the void? Who hurt little Phasma that you canât seem to not threaten someone at every turn?â The headmistress began to regret her words immediately, knowing the captain was sure to bite back.
Phasmaâs previous expression fell, the inherent glower and piercing eyes returning to her features after Larissa spoke. Her eyes immediately went back to the headmistress, leaning forward in her chair to get even closer to the platinum-blonde woman, âNo. I kill because it feels good. Because I want to. And because I can.â The captain stared into the shapeshifterâs eyes, assessing whether or not the potential spout was worth her time.
Larissa held firm, keeping her posture and maintaining searing eye contact. The headmistress was putting all of her faith in Lucifer to not let Phasma break the only house rule. She gave Phasma a soft smile, breaking eye contact to gather another forkful of salad, gazing into Phasmaâs eyes and speaking before pushing the greens into her mouth, âAnd here I wouldâve guessed not enough hugs from mother.â
Phasma huffed a dry laugh, âOh. So now I have mommy issues?â Leaning back in her chair once again, she took another sip, âWhat an astute observation. Where did you learn that, during your own childhood? Iâm sure having a cold and distant mother leads to seeing some equal signs. You would know better than most, no?âÂ
âMore so that you remind me of my students. The same ones who lash out for attention and hurt others when they really just need love, hm? But your amateur psychology was worth a shot.â Larissa wasnât about to reveal any aspect of her relationship with her mother to this woman. Instead, the headmistress only dug her claws in deeper, rolling her shoulders back as she stared at Phasma.
âReal interesting connection there, only issue is, I am nothing like your little child students. There was no âamateur psychologyâ in play, I too am observant, you know.â Phasma smirked over her drink, maintaining the heated stare.Â
Larissa hadnât experienced this much verbal warfare since she herself was a student at Nevermore. The headmistress scoffed and dropped her fork in the bowl to fold her arms over her chest, âObservant? Not a word I would have used to describe you, but sure, if you think so.âÂ
âNot observant, you say? Would a non-observant person have seen the way you look at our dear Lord Commander? The way you eye-fuck her when you think no one is watching, hmm?â Phasma leaned closer and closer to Larissa, an extremely smug smirk on her face, watching for every single reaction the headmistress could wear. The captain was now playing dirty.
Larissa pursed her lips, looking Phasma up and down before making eye contact once more, âI know good art when I see it.â Pushing her chair back, Larissa moved to stand, earning some height over Phasma, even if it was momentary. She considered holding the next thought in, but the need to win the argument was too great, âYou canât be all that observant because you would have noticed me eye-fucking you too.âÂ
The captain stood herself, a wry chuckle escaping her lips, âOh no, you misunderstand. I noticed that as well. I just didnât want to embarrass you by bringing it up.â Phasma tilted her head to the side slightly, âWhich is why I find this conversation so amusing. The fact that you were arguing with me when you couldnât keep your eyes off of my thighs just a few hours ago.â
âWhat can I say? You are fun to argue with.â Larissa nabbed her salad bowl from the table and took her leave. She knew Phasma would take this as a win, but she couldnât stand to be in the womanâs presence with the deep red blush crawling up her face.Â
The chromed trooper laughed deeply as she watched Larissa leave in her periphery, her booming voice shouting after the shapeshifter, âThis was fun, letâs do it again sometime!â
Always needing the last word, Larissa paused momentarily, âIâm sure you would just love that, wouldnât you?â She knew it wasnât the best comeback, but her frustration got the best of her. The headmistress stormed from the home, choosing to finish her dinner outside, muttering to herself in the lounge area.
âI would love that very much! I always enjoy frustrating people and making them flustered!â Phasma knew Larissa had left the house, hearing the closing of the door, but the quiet house carried her voice, and she knew that the headmistress had to have heard at least a fraction of her words. The captain took her seat, returning to her spot across from Miranda, and continued sipping on her shake.
Miranda turned her gaze down to the cereal bowl, unsure if she wanted to ask any additional questions. There was no way she wanted to be on the receiving end of any discussion like that.Â
Phasma took a deep breath, and almost like the argument never happened, she, scarily calm and composed, looked to Miranda, âSo, any more questions?â
Miranda only shook her head, focusing on finishing the rest of her cereal so she could go anywhere that wasnât under the captainâs uncomfortable gaze. The soft clinking of metal against the ceramic bowl was the only noise that came from Mirandaâs side of the table.
âVery well. This has been a very fulfilling dinner. Thank you for allowing me to join.â Phasma smiled to herself, satisfied with the end of her heated discussion with Larissa, this had been the most interesting thing that had happened all day. She finished the rest of her shake, standing up to throw away her trash. Once she had done so, she took her exit, leaving Miranda alone in the kitchen.
Miranda finished up her meal and left her bowl in the sink, wanting to explore the house until she found Brienne. At least she knew the knight wouldnât have any rude comments to throw back and forth. The constable was excited for a fun trip with new friends, but this vacation was beginning to look bleak.
The constable padded down to Brienneâs room first, knocking gently and calling out to the other woman, âBri, itâs Miranda! Are you busy?â
Ever since Brienne brought Miranda to her room and provided her with whatever she needed, she had retreated to her room and hadnât left since. At the knock on her door and the voice from the other side, the knight smiled, glad that the constable was feeling well enough to be up and walking, âNot particularly.â The Lord Commanderâs voice was muffled from the other side and seconds after, the hardwood was opened, âWhat can I do for you, Constable?â
âI was wondering if you wanted to hang out. Phas and Rissa had one of those knock-down, drag-out fights and I think itâs best to leave them alone for a bit. We could go for a walk or explore the house or just sit around. Whatever you wantâŠâ Miranda shrugged and tried to sound impartial, but deep down she was jumping at the bit for Brienne to hang out with her. While Phasma was cool for living in space, Miranda felt a kinship with the lady knight, assuming they may share many of the same experiences.
âWell, that certainly sounds unpleasant.â Brienne furrowed her brows, stepping out of her room and closing the door behind her. âI would love to hang out. We can do whatever you wish.â The knight smiled at Miranda, wishing to take her mind off the surely terrifying experience of being stuck in a spout between Phasma and Larissa. âI am glad to see that you are doing better, by the way.â
âOh, yeah, Iâm alright.â Miranda waved off the other womanâs care and took a step back, hoping to draw Brienne from her room, âWe can sit in the living room. I wouldnât want to invade your space. I want to hear about you being a knight- I mean, Lord Commander. Thatâs really coolâŠâ
Brienne laughed fondly at the constableâs quick correction, âI am still a knight. Just a different title and job. I can tell you about both if you wish, I have many stories.â
âYes, tell me everything. It isnât every day you meet a woman like you.â Miranda gave a quick smile, beginning to slowly lead herself and Brienne towards the main room of the home, ready to soak up every story Brienne had to offer.
âWell, most of the interesting stories happened before I was officially knighted. Thereâs the story of how I fought against and beat two of the strongest fighters, not at the same time, of course. Or the story of the war against the white walkers, that one took place after I got my knighthood.â Brienne walked with her hands clasped behind her back as she spoke, maneuvering the house to arrive in the living room.
âWho are the strongest fighters? And whatâs a white walker? Is that like a ghost? Probably notâŠâ Miranda settled on the couch, drawing a pillow to her chest and staring intently at the knight, ready to consume and memorize each of her stories. The constable was quick to appoint women as âpersonal heroesâ especially when they live lives and accomplish things she could only dream of.
Brienne had taken her seat on the couch next to Miranda, sitting stiffly upright with her palms resting flat on her thighs, âWell, there was Ser Jaime Lannister, I was ordered to escort him and ended up having to fight him, his manacled form most definitely helped me, though. Then there was The Hound, he used to be in the Kingâs Guard, and he was a worthy opponent, I was very surprised to see him alive.â As the Lord Commander spoke, she grew more and more relaxed, allowing herself to lean back a tiny bit. âWhite walkers are dead beings from the other side of the wall, they never truly died, you just had to keep fighting until the Night King was slayed.â
âThey never truly died? Night King? How many of them were there?â Miranda leaned forward in her seat, literally at the edge of her seat from Brienneâs tales. From the way her mouth remained agape and her brow furrowed, Miranda was unable to hide her true wonderment from the thought of Brienne fighting zombies.Â
The knight smiled heartwarmingly, never had someone been so invested in her anecdotes before, âExactly so. You could slash as much as you wanted, but as soon as one fell to the ground, it rose. There were hundreds of them. White walkers and wights as far as the eye could see. At one point, I and another knight were cornered, our swords wildly gliding through the air, fighting with every single ounce of strength left in us.â Brienne had opted for dramatics, lowering her voice as she spoke, telling the story theatrically for Mirandaâs enjoyment. She lowered her voice even more before she began speaking of the leader. âYes, the Night King. His skin was wrinkly and ice white, eyes glowing and blue as The Shivering Sea. He is said to have existed since the age of the First Men. You kill him, you kill them all. All his troops.â
Miranda fell into the dramatics, enjoying every second as she envisioned Brienne battling the white walkers. She couldnât help herself when she became Brienneâs biggest fan, âBut how did you survive? I mean, probably because you are the coolest person to ever exist. I swear to God, Bri. You are amazing. I couldnât imagine doing anything like this. Are there... Are there many other knights that are women?â
âThatâs a very good question. Iâd like to think it was pure luck. Or that the Gods were smiling down at me. Or maybe it was pure skill. All I do know is that had that battle gone on for another minute, I would be one of the bodies on the frozen ground.â Brienne paused for a second, thinking back to the moments when she thought she was done for before the white walkers crumpled to the ground. âNo. I am the only one. Sadly, it is frowned upon for a woman to be anything else than a woman, in what society deems as âtraditional.ââ
âI was the only woman at my department for a little while... It can be... rough.â Mirandaâs eyes fell to the floor, moments from those two years flashing through her mind of the âmanâs worldâ she was expected to exist in.Â
âWhat changed?â Brienne had turned her body towards Miranda when she saw the constableâs gaze fall on the floor, her tone low and gentle, her eyes locked on the policewoman next to her.
âWell, my partner came to work at the department. Robin and I didnât see eye to eye at first, but after a while... we became friends. She is always nice enough to stand up for me when the guys say something offhand.â Miranda brought her gaze back up to meet Brienneâs, slightly embarrassed at her admission that she typically refuses to stand up for herself, especially when she has painted Brienne to be such a fearsome individual in her mind.
âIâm glad you have someone like that on your side, though you should start standing up for yourself as well. Recognize your own worth, your own value.â Brienne smiled fondly at Miranda, empathizing with much of what the constable was talking about. Knowing all too well what it felt like to be constantly bad-mouthed and ridiculed.
Miranda only shrugged, knowing it was unlikely she would stand up for herself unless she was pushed to the brink like she had been with Robin when their relationship was on the rocks, âIâm sure the guys are just joking most of the time. No reason to cause trouble if I can help it. Donât worry about it, Bri. Iâll make a commissioned rank one day while the rest of those guys are stuck as sergeants and constables.â The constable smiled to herself, picturing the rank she could hold one day.Â
Brienne frowned and drew her brows together, in her experience, menâs so-called âjokesâ always held their version of their truth. âMen call the actual insults jokes so they can say, âitâs not that serious,â or âyou canât take a joke.â Their âjokesâ are just mockery disguised as jest so they can play it off like one.â The knight was leaning forward, arms resting on her thighs as she spoke to Miranda. âI assume they would be quite pissed about the fact that they would have to take their orders from a woman, I know you will do a wonderful job.âÂ
âHa. So youâre telling me they are serious when they call me a man? Great.â Miranda tried playing off her pain as a joke, but her tone didnât quite land. Rather than continue on the subject, Miranda attempted to change the subject, âSo whatâs your deal with not wanting to get in the pool? If you donât know how to swim, I can totally show you how to swim if you want.â
âMost definitely.â Brienne considered reaching out and placing a comforting hand on the constableâs knee but didnât know if that would be appreciated, considering peopleâs previous reaction to any type of physical intimacy from her, so she refrained from doing so. âI grew up on an island, so I know how to swim. My reason for not wanting to get in the pool is far more complex and complicated, it runs deep and has for years.â The Lord Commander wasnât all that keen on bringing up all of her childhood and adult life experiences she had gone through because of the way she looked and the career she had. Instead, she opted for a short and simple answer, hoping it would satisfy Mirandaâs inquisitiveness.
âSorry. I didnât mean to pry...â Miranda trailed off, unsure of what to say to Brienne next now that she had effectively ruined their discussion, âWell, I-â
The constable paused mid-sentence when she saw Larissaâs pale, swimsuit-clad form from the corner of her eye. The shapeshifter spoke up, joining the conversation uninvited, âWhat are you two up to?â Larissa strode into the living room, landing on the cushion next to Miranda, and tossing her sheer swimsuit cover over her legs.Â
âBrienne was telling me about all of her adventures. Rissa, Iâm telling you she is the coolest person on Earth.â The constableâs hand reached out and gripped Larissaâs forearm, shaking the headmistress to indicate how excited she really was about hearing the knightâs tales. Larissa kept her eyes on Miranda, not wishing to make Brienne any more upset than she had earlier.Â
The knight laughed softly and shook her head at how Miranda spoke about her, âI would not say that I am the coolest person on Earth, I think you are overselling me a little bit to the Principal here.â
âDonât listen to her, Riss. She is underselling herself. She has fought zombies and kicked menâs asses in battle. I get why you like her so much.â Mirandaâs mouth was moving faster than her brain as she spoke to Larissa, spilling a quick summary of their conversation, including more than she should have revealed. The headmistressâs gaze narrowed at the constableâs revelation, wishing the woman could have just kept her mouth shut.Â
âThat is true, I have done tha- What?â Brienne stared wide-eyed at Miranda who hadnât been able to stop the words that tumbled from her lips. The knight released a sigh before standing up, her new friend apparently being in on the forever-ongoing plan to point and laugh at Brienne the Beast. She felt a deep, and cutting disappointment and sadness, but had learned long ago to not expect much from people; their true colors always show sooner or later. âThis has been a wonderful conversation but I think it is time for me to retire for the night. I will see you both tomorrow.â The Lord Commander quickly bowed before leaving the room, not allowing the constable or the headmistress to protest or respond in any way.
âMiranda,â Larissa hissed, burying her face in her hands in sheer embarrassment. At least Phasma would have teased her about it in private instead of making her âcrushâ known to Brienne.Â
âIâm sorry! It just slipped out! I didnât think it would make her upset!â Guilt washed over Miranda and a pit of anxiety began growing in the womanâs stomach for upsetting her friend. The constable moved to stand so she could follow after Brienne, wishing to comfort her and apologize in any way she could, but Larissa reached out a hand, stopping her in her tracks.
âLeave her be, Miranda,â Larissa warned, but Miranda pulled her arm loose, choosing to follow after Brienne instead, not wanting to give the knight any longer to think about her words.Â
Miranda bounded after Brienne, watching her door close from a distance. Knocking at the door, Miranda thought over her final words to Brienne, wondering what she could have said to cause the knight to take her leave so suddenly, âBri, what did I say? I didnât mean to upset you. Please just talk to me and Iâll leave you alone for the rest of the trip if you want.â
As Miranda knocked and waited at Brienneâs door, Larissa passed her by to ascend the stairs to her room, speaking softly to Miranda, âJust leave her be. I donât think she likes compliments.â Without another word, Larissa retired to her room, wanting a shower and a good night's sleep. Miranda wasnât about to give up, the constable was prepared to sit outside the knightâs room all night if she had to.
âHilmarson, if you have come to insult me even more, donât, I got it the first time. And if you have come to apologize, I have no interest in hearing your excuses, own up to your words.â Brienne's voice was muffled on the other side of the door, so much that Miranda could barely make out what she was saying. There was a twinge of woe and hurt in the knightâs voice and she sounded so defeated, having given up on making friends with any of the women.
Larissa had insulted her, and so had Miranda, and Phasma was, well, Phasma, the captain had no interest in making any friends whatsoever and Lucifer was seldom there. Brienne had come to terms with that she would spend the rest of the week alone amongst people. Sure, she would socialize with them to stay civil, but she would not allow herself to hope.
âI want to apologize! But I need to know what Iâm apologizing for! I donât want to say anything to hurt you again, but I truly donât understand.â Miranda leaned her forehead against the door as she spoke to the knight. She was trying her best to convey her most genuine of tones, but it was hard when Brienne couldnât see the look on Mirandaâs face, âI have no excuses for you.â
Brienne was unsure if she had the energy to indulge in this now, it had been a long day, and she wanted nothing more than to lay down in bed and get her hours in, to get this day over with.
Maybe Miranda hadnât meant it in a hurtful way, maybe the knight had let her own insecurities and knowledge of how the world saw her take over. She was almost certain that the constable hadnât meant to hurt her judging from her tone, but the Lord Commander couldnât shake the forever gnawing feeling of humiliation lurking around every corner.
The knight opted for placing her sleep on hold for a few minutes, deciding that Miranda deserved an explanation and not the silent treatment. Brienne opened her door, the constable almost falling into her when she did, having to regain her balance, âDo you wish to do this in my doorway, or do you wish to come in?â
âI-I donât want to intrude... I just- I donât know what I said Brienne. I wanted you to know how great you were... Honest..â Miranda fidgeted with her hands, trying her best to stay calm in the terribly nerve-wracking situation. It took everything in her to meet Brienneâs gaze, but she knew she must if the knight were to believe her, âI, uhm, donât have many friends so I try to avoid losing them when I find them...â
Brienne assessed the woman in front of her, looking for that usual sign that told her she was being made fun of, finding nothing remotely close to it inside Mirandaâs eyes, âI will ask you one simple question. Did you mean what you said? Me being the coolest person on Earth and all that. Did you mean it?â
The constable didnât hesitate with her answer, âYes. I meant every word. You are truly one of the most incredible people Iâve ever met.â Miranda decided to keep her answer short, not wanting to get herself into any more trouble by continuing to speak.Â
The knight smiled tenderly, âThat was all I needed to know and I am trusting it to be the truth.â Brienne still couldnât shake the nagging voice warning her of the inevitable derision that had become commonplace, but she decided to believe her new friend, praying she wouldnât regret it. âGoodnight, Constable Hilmarson.â
Miranda nodded, âNight, Bri.â Brienneâs reaction wasnât exactly as thorough as she expected, but Miranda knew she wasnât entitled to much more. Rather than wait for the knight to close the door, Miranda flashed a smile and took her leave, deciding to adjourn back to her own room while she and Brienne were on a high note. The knight had closed her door after the constable left, getting ready for bed and finally being able to lay down in a comfortable bed after one of the longest days in her life, Brienne was sure.

Donnerstag / 14. Juni 2018 / 19.00 Uhr / Leiden und Gesellschaft â Psychoanalyse in der Gesellschaftskritik der Frankfurter Schule
Studentisch selbstverwalteter Raum / Adam-Kuckhoff-Str. 34a / Steintor-Campus / UniversitÀt Halle
Vortrag und Diskussion mit Frank Schumann (Berlin)
Jede Gesellschaftskritik stellt wenigstens implizit die These auf, dass Menschen in irgendeiner Weise unter den kritisierten Bedingungen leiden. Das hat zwei naheliegende GrĂŒnde. Denn nur wenn die kritisierten Bedingungen fĂŒr die betroffenen Menschen selbst in irgendeiner (auch unbewussten) Weise mit Leid verbunden sind, sind Kritik und VerĂ€nderung notwendig. Und möglicherweise lĂ€sst sich in den gesellschaftstypischen Mustern des Leidens auch ein Indiz dafĂŒr entnehmen, in welche Richtung eine VerĂ€nderung zu gehen habe. Gesellschaftskritik kann sich also mit dem Verweis auf gesellschaftstypische Leidenserfahrungen erstens selbst als Kritik legitimieren und zweitens zugleich ihre inhaltlichen Aussagen und Forderungen rechtfertigen.
Aber auch wenn es fĂŒr eine Kritik notwendig ist, im Leiden der Menschen ein StĂŒck Gesellschaft zu rekonstruieren, ist das VerhĂ€ltnis von Leiden und Gesellschaft alles andere als leicht zu bestimmen. LeidphĂ€nomene, wie etwa psychische Symptome, sind etwas, das in die konkrete Biografie eingebunden ist und das in seiner Dynamik nur vor dem individuellen Lebenshorizont verstanden werden kann. Dagegen ist eine Gesellschaftstheorie und -kritik notwendig abstrakt und lĂ€uft daher Gefahr, ĂŒber diese Eigendynamik hinwegzugleiten. Der Vortrag nĂ€hert sich dem Problem vor dem Hintergrund der Gesellschaftskritik der Frankfurter Schule und versucht dabei nachzuzeichnen, wie das VerhĂ€ltnis zwischen Leiden und Gesellschaft von den jeweiligen Theoretikern gefasst wurde â und welche unklaren Punkte und offene Fragen dabei geblieben sind.
Frank Schumann promovierte in Jena bei Hartmut Rosa und ist Postdoc an der International Psychoanalytic University in Berlin. Seine Arbeitsschwerpunkte liegen in der Sozial- und Gesellschaftstheorie, Sozialphilosophie, psychoanalytischen Subjekttheorie und der sozialpsychologischen Einstellungsforschung. Veröffentlichung: Leiden und Gesellschaft. Psychoanalyse in der Gesellschaftskritik der Frankfurter Schule (Transcipt 2018).
Freitag / 22. Juni 2018 / 19.00 Uhr / Make Love, Donât Gender! Möglichkeiten und Grenzen von HeteronormativitĂ€tskritik in cis-/heterosexuellen Paarbeziehungen
Hörsaal I / Adam-Kuckhoff-Str. 34a / Steintor-Campus / UniversitÀt Halle
Vortrag und Diskussion mit Ann-Madeleine Tietge (Bremen)
Basierend auf den Ergebnissen ihrer Dissertation wird Ann-Madeleine Tietge zeigen, dass der heteronormativitĂ€tskritische Versuch, Geschlecht in einer cis/heterosexuellen Liebesbeziehung zu dekonstruieren, nicht unbedingt an den Vorstellungen âdominanter Mackerâ und âabhĂ€ngige Hausfrauâ scheitert. Vielmehr re-inszeniert sich hier eine Mutter-Sohn-Konstellation zwischen Partnerin und Partner, was die Referentin auf dem Hintergrund psychoanalytischer Sozialpsychologie und konstruktivistischer Geschlechtertheorie deutet. Die mĂ€nnlich sozialisierten Partner geraten hĂ€ufig in eine kindliche/adoleszente Position, welche von undifferenzierten Fernweh- und Autonomiestrebungen und ĂŒbermĂ€Ăigen Selbstverwirklichungstendenzen gekennzeichnet ist. Ihre Partnerinnen, welche sich meist mehr VerantwortungsĂŒbernahme ihrer Partner wĂŒnschen, reagieren auf diese Position mit mĂŒtterlichen Erziehungsversuchen, welche jedoch die Kindlichkeit ihrer Partner zu zementieren scheint.
Tietge plĂ€diert fĂŒr eine neue Schwerpunktsetzung in der feministischen Kritik des Privaten. Eine âReduzierungâ des Maskulinen hin zur Figur des âkleinen Jungenâ kann genauso wenig wie eine rein Ă€sthetische Femininisierung ausreichen, um Geschlecht (und damit MachtverhĂ€ltnisse) in Beziehungen zu destabilisieren. Stattdessen gilt es fĂŒr Cis-MĂ€nner, mĂŒtterlich konnotierte Sozialisationsaspekte zu ĂŒbernehmen, also Femininisierung auch auf Ebene der emotionalen FĂŒrsorge zu erreichen.
Ann-Madeleine Tietge hat Psychologie an der UniversitĂ€t Bremen und der Universitat de ValĂšncia studiert. Ihre kĂŒrzlich abgeschlossene Promotion an der Leibniz UniversitĂ€t Hannover untersucht die unbewusste Reproduktion von MĂ€nnlichkeit in heterosexuellen Paarbeziehungen. Schwerpunkte ihrer Arbeit und Forschung umfassen psychoanalytische Sozialpsychologie, Geschlechterforschung/Queer Theory und qualitative Methoden (insbesondere Lorenzers Tiefenhermeneutik). Zur Zeit arbeitet sie in einer Beratungsstelle gegen sexualisierte Gewalt und befindet sich in Ausbildung zur Psychologischen Psychotherapeutin (DGPT) am Psychoanalytischen Institut Bremen e.V. Aktuelle Veröffentlichung: Tietge, A.-M. (2018). The Mamis and the Puppies â Möglichkeiten und Grenzen von HeteronormativitĂ€tskritik in heterosexuell definierten Paarbeziehungen. In Ch. Busch, B.

Dienstag / 3. Juli 2018 / 19.00 Uhr / Machtlust. Psychoanalyse und Kapitalismuskritik
Studentisch selbstverwalteter Raum / Adam-Kuckhoff-Str. 34a / Steintor-Campus / UniversitÀt Halle
Vortrag und Diskussion mit Samo TomĆĄiÄ (Berlin)
Wenn eine gesellschaftskritische Ausrichtung die Psychoanalyse kennzeichnet, dann ist es die Aufdeckung dessen, was Freud das »Unbehagen in der Kultur« nannte. Damit direkt verbunden ist die Aufdeckung der libidinösen Ausbeutung bzw. der libidinösen Verankerung der MachtverhĂ€ltnisse. Diese Einsichten Freuds wurden einerseits von der Kritischen Theorie aufgegriffen und fanden andererseits in Jacques Lacans »RĂŒckkehr zu Freud« wichtige psychoanalytische Weiterentwicklungen. Ausgehend von der Lustproblematik wird sich der Vortrag der andauernden AktualitĂ€t der freudo-lacanschen Psychoanalyse widmen. Wieso braucht die Kritik der politischen Ăkonomie psychoanalytische Grundbegriffe (Trieb, Unbewusstes, Ăbertragung)? Wie mischt sich Lust ĂŒberhaupt in die Reproduktion der kapitalistischen MachtverhĂ€ltnisse ein? Und schlieĂlich: Was kann uns die Psychoanalyse ĂŒber den Aufstieg des sogenannten Neopopulismus sagen?
Samo TomĆĄiÄ promovierte in Philosophie an der UniversitĂ€t Ljubljana, Slowenien, und ist seit 2011 an der Humboldt UniversitĂ€t zu Berlin tĂ€tig. Seine Forschungsbereiche umfassen französische Philosophie, deutschen Idealismus, Epistemologie, Psychoanalyse und Sprachphilosophie. Letzte Veröffentlichungen: The Capitalist Unconscious. Marx and Lacan (Verso, 2015) und Psychoanalysis: Topological Perspectives (Hg. mit Michael Friedman, Transcript, 2016).
Sonnabend / 7. Juli 2018 / Workshop: Psychoanalyse und Gesellschaftskritik
10 â 17 Uhr / Studierendenrat der Martin-Luther-UniversitĂ€t Halle-Wittenberg / UniversitĂ€tsplatz 7 / Halle (Saale)
Die kritische Theorie sprach sich immer fĂŒr eine psychoanalytische Erweiterung der Marxschen Gesellschaftskritik aus. Anders sei es nicht zu verstehen, dass die Menschen sich selbst und Anderen weiter eine UnterdrĂŒckung aufzwingen, die beim heutigen Stand der ProduktivkrĂ€fte nicht mehr notwendig wĂ€re, statt in Opposition zur bestehenden Gesellschaft vernĂŒnftig ihre BedĂŒrfnisse zu vertreten. Dieser IrrationalitĂ€t spĂŒrt die Psychoanalyse nach. Obwohl die Psychoanalyse folglich ein zentraler Bestandteil der Frankfurter Gesellschaftskritik ist, sieht Adorno auch einen objektiven Grund fĂŒr die disziplinĂ€re Trennung zwischen Soziologie und Psychologie. Dieser liege darin, dass die gesamtgesellschaftlichen Prozesse und die beteiligten Einzelnen soweit von einander entfremdet seien, dass sie sich nicht mit den gleichen Begriffen beschreiben lieĂen. Die theoretische Vereinheitlichung der beiden Disziplinen unterstelle somit einen Zustand schon als gegeben, der sich nur als Utopie formulieren lieĂe. In welcher Interaktion die Individualpsyche und Gesellschaft trotz ihrer EigenstĂ€ndigkeit stehen und wie sich die psychoanalytische und gesellschaftskritische Perspektive ergĂ€nzen und auch widersprechen, wollen wir anhand der gemeinsamen LektĂŒre des Textes âZum VerhĂ€ltnis von Soziologie und Psychologieâ von Adorno mit euch diskutieren.
Wir bitten um Anmeldung unter gruppe.aufgetaucht (at) web.de.
Sonnabend / 14. Juli 2018 / Workshop: Kritik der psychoanalytischen Praxis
10 â 15 Uhr | Studierendenrat der Martin-Luther-UniversitĂ€t Halle-Wittenberg | UniversitĂ€tsplatz 7 | Halle (Saale)
Nachdem wir uns in unserem ersten Workshop mit dem VerhĂ€ltnis von Psychoanalyse und Gesellschaftskritik â konkret mit dem VerhĂ€ltnis von Soziologie und Psychologie bei Adorno beschĂ€ftigt haben und der Frage nachgegangen sind, wie sich beide notwendigerweise ergĂ€nzen (sollten) und doch klar von einander zu trennen sind, wollen wir uns im zweiten Workshop eingehender mit Adornos Kritik an der psychoanalytischen Praxis auseinander setzen. Was wir heute eigentlich an der Verhaltenstherapie kritisieren, der Psychoanalyse aber gerade absprechen wĂŒrden â die Anpassung an die VerhĂ€ltnisse â sah Adorno auch in der Anwendung der Psychoanalyse bestĂ€tigt. Psychotherapie negiere die gesellschaftliche ObjektivitĂ€t am Leiden der Einzelnen, Kritik werde psychologisiert, Psychotherapie sei âobjektiv unwahrâ: âIndem der Geheilte dem irren Ganzen sich anĂ€hnelt, wird er erst recht krank, ohne daĂ doch der, dem die Heilkur miĂlingt, darum gesĂŒnder wĂ€re.â (S. 57). Mit und ohne Psychotherapie geht es den Leuten also schlecht. Eine vermeintlich gesunde, âgut integrierte Persönlichkeitâ mute dem Individuum eine âBalance der KrĂ€fteâ zu, die real nicht existiere. âMan lehrt den Einzelnen die objektiven Konflikte vergessen, die in jedem notwendig sich wiederholen, anstatt ihm zu helfenâ (S. 65). Wie die These Freuds âWo Es war, soll Ich werden.â unterschiedlich verstanden werden kann und ob sie â wie Adorno suggeriert â lediglich auf eine falsche Befriedung mit den VerhĂ€ltnissen hinaus lĂ€uft oder doch gerade den Einzelnen erst in die Lage versetzt, die Quelle seines Leidens zu erkennen und sich dazu zu verhalten, wollen wir uns an Hand des zweiten Teils (ab S. 60) des selben Aufsatzes durch gemeinsame LektĂŒre und Diskussion erarbeiten.
Wir bitten um Anmeldung unter gruppe.aufgetaucht (at) web.de.

Thatâs the thing, I canât figure it out because Ch/ristopher Criss sounds like Ch/ristopher miss so thatâs the only one that comes to mind.
Well, true. Thatâs the - how to put it - special thing about the tweet. Try looking at it this way. Since this isnât a literal thing, play around with the words a bit. Miss - Mrs, C/hris - C/riss. So in the end youâre left with Mrs C/riss. Which is one woman plus another one whoâs pretending.

Kapitel 16
~Thomas POV
âdu hast mir noch nie von ihr erzĂ€hlt. Was du sagst, klingt es so als hĂ€ttest du sie sehr geliebt,Tommyâ,sagte GRace zu mir.
Ich setzte mich ans Bett zu ihr und sagte:âdas ist nicht mehr wichtig.Das liegt nun in der Vergangenheit,GRace.â
Grace sah mich fĂŒr einen Moment an und sagte:âLaden wir sie doch zum Abendessen einâ
Ich sah sie ĂŒberrascht an und sie sagte:âDas wĂ€re eine gute Gelegenheit, euch wiederzusehen und auszureden. Es wĂ€re wie en Abscheidâ
Ich sah sie an und sgate:âDas ist keien gute Ideeâ.
âWarum?So kannst du mir auch beweisen, das du nichts mehr fĂŒr sie empfindestâ,sagte GRace hoffnungsvoll.
Ich lĂ€chelte sie and und kĂŒsste sie und sagte:âDu brauchst keien BEweis dafĂŒrâ
~Adeliade POV
Die HaushĂ€lterin ĂŒberhĂ€ufte das Schlafzimmer mit hcohzeitskleidern.Â
âDas wĂŒrde ihnen auch gut g+stehehn,madamâ,sagte sie wiederholt beim 5.hochzeitskleid. Sie hielt das Kleidvor mir hin im Spiegel. Ehrlich gesagt ,war es mir völlig egal,welches Kleid ihc trug. Ich wĂŒrde es sowieso nicht geniessen.Seit der EinverstĂ€nidnserklĂ€rung,sprach Jonathan kaum mehr mit mir und ich sah ihn auch fast nie, da diese Hcohzeitsvorbereitungen mich beschĂ€ftigt hielten.
Mein Blick fiel zu BOden und die HaushĂ€lterin sagte:âmadam. Ist alles in Ordnung,gefallen ihenen die Kleider nicht?â
Ich versuchte zu lĂ€cheln und bevor ich etwas sagen konnte hörte ich iene MĂ€nnerstimme sagen:âDieses Kleid ist am schönstenâ
Ich drehte mich um und ich sah jack, wie er eines der hochzeitskleider hochhielt. âSir, sie dĂŒrfen doch nicht vor der hcohzeit das keldi sehenâ,sagte die HaushĂ€lterin hektisch zu ihm.
âIch musste doch nach meiner BRaut sehen,wie es ihr gehtâ,sagte er und kam auf mich zu und kĂŒsste mich,doch ch unterbrach den Kuss und lĂ€chelte gezwungen.
Er sah mich einem Moment lang an und legte seinen Arm um mich. âLiebling, du hast doch gehört was sie sagte. Das bringt unglĂŒckâ,sagte ich und lĂ€chelte die HaushĂ€lterin an.
Er sah uns ĂŒberrascht an und shcmunzelte.Dann verlieĂ er das Zimmer und sagte noch:âHalten sie nihct zu lange wach, frau Randall.Morgen ist das Verlobungsessenâ
ârandall?â,kam es aus mir heruas.
Frank Randall.Ich erstaarte als ich den Namen hörte.
âJa, madamâ,sagte die HaushĂ€lterin,als sie die Hochzeitskleider ansah.
Ich stotterte:âKennen Sie dann zufĂ€llig FRank Randall?â
Sie drehte sich ĂŒberrascht um und sagte:âJa, er war mein Sohn, er starb leiderâ,sagte sie und wirkte traurig.
Frank Randall. Sie war die Mutter von ihm. Der Mann,den ich so oft erstochen habe,war ihr sohn.
âwoher kennt ihr,meinen Sohn,milady?â,fragte sie mich als sie wieder ein Hochzeitskleid an mich hielt.
Ich lĂ€chelte falsch und sagte:ânur von ihm gehört. Ich hatte nie das VergnĂŒgen.â
âDas Kleid ist perfektâ,sagte FRau Randall und hob das schönste Kleidvon allen hoch.
âWoher wusstest du von Frank Randall?â,rief ich aufgewĂŒhlt als ich in Jackâs BĂŒro einstĂŒrmte.
Er sah mcih ĂŒberrascht und sagte:âWas redest du da, mein Leibling?â
âOh lass das Leibegetue. Ich will wissen woher du es weiĂt?â,rief ich wĂŒtend.
Er stand auf unds agte:âDu solltest nicht so mit mir reden, du wirst bald meien Ehe frau seinund ich dein Ehemann, Leiblingâ.
Er stand vor mir und sah mich ernst an. ICh sah ihn wĂŒtend an und doch ich ballte meine Faust.
er seufzte und lehnte sich an seinen Tisch. Ich kam auf ihn zu und staarte ihn direkt in sieenAugen und sagte:âWenn du willst, das wir eine Ehepaar dann sollten wir uns auch mit ehrlichkeit begegnenâ
Plötzlich fiel mir frank ein und wir immer sagte, das wir uns mir ehrlichkeit begegnen sollen.
Ich began wieder schwer zu atmen und plötzlich fĂŒhlte ich JAcks HAnd an meiner Wange. Aprupt sprna gich zurĂŒck und er seufzte.Â
âEhrlichkeit mit Ehrlichkeit sagst du? Sobald du dich mir öffnest und meine verdammte Ehefrau bist, und nicht nur auf Papier sondern auch in deinem Kopf, werde ich dir alle deine FRagen beantwortenâ,sagte er ernst.
Ich sah ihn einen Moment an und dann verlieĂ ich sein Zimmer.
ER verwirrte mich. CIh wusste nicht was er von mir wollte.Wollte er wikrlcih nur das ich ihn leieb wie eine Ehefrau oder hatte er etwas anderes im Gedanken?
~Nachster Tag am Abend
Es waren viele Menshcen im Haus, verschiedene Clanmitglieder,aus England sowohl aus anderen LĂ€ndern. Bisher wusste ich nicht das unsere HEirat so ein groĂes Thema war, doch anscheinend, waren das alles nicht freunde die hier zum verlobungsessen da waren, es waren Clans aus anderen LĂ€ndern die nur das GEschĂ€ft im Kopf hatten. AuĂerdem war die Familie von Jack auch hier.
Als erstes seine Mutter:izabella Hemlock
âDie Namen eurer Kinder stehen schon fest,also gibt es darĂŒber nicht mehr zu besprechen. Könne sie kochen? Eien FRau muss kochenkönnen!âÂ
und sein 4 jahre Àlterer Bruder, Klaus Hemlock
âEs ist mir ein VergnĂŒgenâ,sagte er und nahm meine Hand.
Ich sah ihn ĂŒberrascht an als plötzlich Jack Klaus Hand von meiner entfernte und meine Hand festhielt. Er lachte und sagte:â Ich wusste nicht,das du auch kommst,Bruderâ.
ICh merkte wie sich der Griff an meiner Hand festigte.
Klaus schmunzelte und sagte:âEs war schön dich kennenzulernen, Adelaideâ.
So ging er wieder unter die Menge. ICh sah ihm hinterher, JAcks GRiff wurde stĂ€rker.Als ich dann sagte:Au,JAck.Du tust mir wehâ.
Von seinen GEdanken gerissen lieĂ er los und sagte:âHalt dich fern von ihm,Adelaideâ.
ICh sah ihn verwirrt an und fragte:âWarum?â
Jack sah mich ernst an und sagte:âDas wa rkiene Bitte,das war ein Befehlâ, und ging seinem BRuder hinterher.
ER muss nicht gleich immer so böse antworten. EIn wenig interessierte mich schon, Jackâs Famillie.Ah was denke ich da! Ich heirate ihn doch nur aus dem GRund weil Jonathan sonst in GEfahr wĂ€re.
Was wohl Jonathan gerade tut?
das Verlobungsessen war vorĂŒber und die GĂ€ste vrabscheideten sich.
âWir sehen uns auf der Hochzeit,Adelaide. Bruderâ,sagte Klaus zu uns und verlieĂ mit Izabella unser Haus,als die letzten GĂ€ste.
Ichs eufzte laut. ICh war enorm mĂŒde. âIch bin mĂŒde. Gute Nachtâ,sagte ihc und war gerade dabei in mein Zimmer zu gehen als JAck mich plötzlich gegen die Wand drĂŒckte.
âWas hast du mit Klaus geredet?â,rief er wĂŒtend
Ich sah ihn erschrocken an und sagte:Nichts besonderesâ
âICh ahbe dich etwas gefragt!â,rief er wĂŒtend.
ICh sah ihn verwiirt an und sagte:âEr fragte mich nahc meinen Namen und wie lange wir uns schon kennen, und dann fragte er mich ob ich geschwister habe und das wars schonâ.
Er sah mich an und dann liss ermich loss und setzte sich auf die Stiegen und sagte:âIch versteheâ
ER verheimlichte mir eindeutig etwas. Ich wollte ihn gerade fragen,was er verheimlicht,als er plötzlich sagte:âdu kannst schlafen gehenâ
IChh ballte meine Faust und nahm ihn beim KRagen und sagte:â Wenn du willst das das hier funktioniert, dann gib mir in zukunft nie wieder einen Befehl. Udn auĂerdem will ich keine Geheimnisse vor einander. Verstanden?â
ER sah mich ĂŒberrascht an und bevor er etwas sagen konnte sagte ich:âgute nachtâ.
So ging ich in mein Zimmer und plötzlich stĂŒrmte er in mein Zimmer hinerin,und ich stand nur im Nachthemd vor ihm.
âDu hast mir nichts zu sagenâ,rief er wĂŒtend.
âWas redest du da!IC hbin deine Ehefrau verdammt nochmalâ,rief ich wĂŒtend.
âUnd genau deswegen,gehorchst du nur mir und nicht andersherumâ,rief er.
Ich lachte sarkastsich und rief zornig:âWas ist das fĂŒr eine verfickte ehe dann? Bin ich etwa dann nur da um dein bett zu wĂ€rmen, du mistkerlâ
âWie hast du mich genanntâ,schrie er.
Ich rief:âEinene scheiss Mistkerl!â
ER kam auf mich zu und hielt mich bei meinen armen fest und rief:âsag das nochmalâ
âWas ?willst du mich etwa schlagen,und so mein GEhrochen fĂŒr dich erlangen, du mistkerl lassmich sofort losâ,rief ich.
Plötzlich kĂŒsste er mich, und ich ohrfeigte ihn. âDu â,sagte ich zornig.
âFRank sagte er hĂ€tte dich gebrochen,doch das sieht nicht so aus als hatte er das. oder du warts gebrohcen und irgendwas oder irgendwer hat dich wieder zusammengeflickt.â,sagte er plötzlich.
âWas?â,fragte ich verwirrt.
ER entfernte sich von mir und sagte:âGeh dich ausruhen, morgen ist ein groĂer Tagâ.
Ich sah ihnnoch immer verwirrt hinterher wie er mein Zimmer verlieĂ. Was meinte er damit? War er etwa mitbeteilt bei der EtnfĂŒhrung?Was fĂŒr eine Bezeihung hatte er zu Frank?
