Be careful
Just because you see a reflection something in another, something in common, something of "mirror"
Doesn't mean it's "one-to-one coded"
We all see something of ourselves in another if we know how to look
#things in common#empathy#contrariness#mirrors are valid#but don't forget funhouse mirrors#or to break that mirror from time to time

so my roommate is completely straight edge like no drugs no alcohol etc and so im sure y’all can imagine my surprise when i saw she brought home this sign
so i immediately inquired
and now you may ask. what the fuck did my roommate think that sign meant? well
anyways i moved the sign so it’s now front and center in our living room and ive been laughing every time i pass it
#the SERENITY PRAYER IN LATIN#life is about surrounding yourself with the dumbest people imaginable so you can get some occasional laughs#i also don’t smoke#so this sign is extra funny to put up in our place#op#also my roomie is actually very very intelligent contrary to this post lmao#bestof

THESE MOMENTS#especially the alice scene#it was the only moment we saw armand genuinely being affected by someone's reaction#that doesn't affect him at his story at all (absolutely nothing to lose if Daniel was sad on the contrary)#was it just empathy?#why#and WHY DID DANIEL FEEL FREER TO HOLD A WOMAN'S HAND IN PARIS as opposed to anywhere in the world#esp since we established paris was more queer friendly#hm???????????#let me dream

Actually I really like that Percy is Thalia's look-alike in the books with their matching black hair and green eyes and the ichor of such powerful gods running through their veins and their mirrored personalities. I like that Annabeth and Luke both looked at Percy and saw Thalia and I love thinking about what a sucker punch Percy must have felt like to the both of them.
#riordanverse#percy jackson#thalia grace#pjo#percy jackson series#annabeth chase#luke castellan#is rick going to forget and fuck up his own symbolism? tune in next year or whenever the fucking show comes out#he already did it once in the books when he forgot Thalia's eye color and changed it to blue#annabeth thought he was a child of zeus despite all evidence to the contrary because percy looks like thalia

*Gets on top of the pedestal and clears throat*
LISTEN TO ME, WHEN INEJ SAID "I WILL HAVE YOU WITHOUT ARMOR, KAZ BREKKER, OR I WILL NOT HAVE YOU AT ALL," SHE WASN'T DEMANDING A SEXUAL RELATIONSHIP FROM HIM, ALL SHE SAID WAS "WORK ON YOUR TRAUMA, I'LL WORK ON MINE, WE WILL BUILD STRONGER EMOTIONAL TRUST AND IMPROVE OPEN HEALTHY COMMUNICATION OF OUR PERSONAL ISSUES, AND THEN WE CAN BE TOGETHER FOR THE REST OF OUR LIVES!!!"
THAT'S WHAT SHE SAID!!!
KANEJ ISN'T A TOXIC SHIP PEOPLE, PEASE UNDERSTAND THAT!!!!
#six of crows#grishaverse#kaz brekker#inej ghafa#kanej#on the contrary#their relationship is one of the healthiest in all of literature and cinema

She’s lost a bit of the composure that you’re used to seeing in Alicent, and she simply tells him, you know, “You need to do what’s needed of you, which is (nothing).” And it’s the most devastating, the most demeaning, belittling thing she could’ve said to her son in that moment.
— Ryan Condal talks about Alicent’s cold attitude that pushes Aegon to leave for Rook’s Rest (Inside the Episode S2, Ep 4).

waiting for everyone to get on board with "fiction that depicts dark subject matter is not inherently romanticizing it" so we can move on to "fiction that romanticizes dark subject matter should not inherently be condemned and sometimes the dark subject matter may in fact be Intentionally Romanticized to Make A Point"
#like. idk. not every piece of art about dark subject matter is going to be straightforward in saying 'THIS IS BAD THIS IS BAD' outright#and i don't think it's a bad thing. on the contrary i think if art that depicts dark subject matter is condemned#for not portraying it as Terrible and Bad or Rebuking It Outright and Blatantly#then a whole lot of very interesting art would be condemned and shunned and that's a damn shame#mine#media

I love how the general consensus in Scum Villain ABO fics is that whatever Shen Jiu's secondary gender was, he was lying about it.
Omega? Obviously he's going to cover that up. Potential weakness! Probably related to past traumatic experiences! No one can know! He's going to pretend to be either a Beta or an Alpha instead.
Alpha? Hates it and everyone else and has no interest in playing the type. Hides it less because of how other people might respond and more because he's having some kind of complicated dysphoria about it.
Beta? I've never see it but I bet he'd disguise that as well. He's totally an Alpha, don't ask questions, fuck off and don't violate the mile-wide personal space bubble.
Whatever Shen Jiu is, we all know he'd be wildly uncomfortable with it.
#svsss#shen qingqiu#shen jiu#scum villain's self saving system#scum villain#I think that might reflect the source of a lot of the character's contrariness#he's actually more comfortable in some ways with being misunderstood#even if it's in unflattering or outright criminal ways#because at least if he's being misunderstood then he's not truly being perceived
