The Lamb is malicious in a funny way and the Goat is funny in a malicious way. No, I will not elaborate.
Anyway, everyone give thanks to the Lamb for interrupting what was sure to be a very boring and patronizing PSA from their grouchy cat hubby. Truly, they are doing God's work. Granted, the Lamb canonically is God now, so, uh. Mostly they're just doing their own work.
Speaking of their grouchy cat hubby, yes this is absolutely still Narilamb, Narinder is 100% into his goofy-ass spouse always no matter what and we all know it, he just wasn't expecting his brand new adopted kid to share the same single goofy-ass brain cell as the Lamb. :)

Sevika x Reader - College AU
Sevika x reader, college au, 4th year reader, 5th year teachers 'helper Sevika', later on reader's tutor, no "y/n" or "reader", reader is referred to as X because she just is.
Today is one of those days which you don't experience many times in your life. Usually it's 5, unless you're unlucky enough to be forced to take a few more due to your failing grades. Luckily X didn't experience this displeasure and she was just about to start her 4th year of college.
She was never forced to repeat a year, her grades were just fine… Except for math.
Throughout the years she was blessed with an amazing tutor, a lovely lady in her 50s, who's been getting her to pass math each year since 7th grade of primary school. Unfortunately, people age, her tutor did and so did her mother. Because of her mothers condition, the math tutor was not able to support X this year. Reasonably it sent her into VERY lightly panic.
With teachers like that and brains like this, on the first day after summer X was unable to find any crumbs of hope to brighten the day up and it would only get more complicated from this point.
Housing system? Completely changed, this year everyone got assigned new dorm rooms. Unlike for the previous three years when X would share a room with some student a year below her, who'd rarely attend lectures, disappear for the whole night for parties and come back in the morning to sleep though half of the day, now she was completely alone.
Now what would greet her was an empty room, which she didn't decorate much, it didn't seem necessary (and it's not like she could afford much dust catchers). The only thing brought into the simple dorm was a pair of bags filled with clothes and necessary hygienic products.
As the first few weeks flew by filled with simple classes like linguistics and those subjects directly related to her major, alongside those which she could deal with were also those she couldn't deal with much, especially math.
It was almost half of the way towards the first session into the semester when the math teacher brought to class some sort of an assistant. Which from the looks surely did not seem like one. Teachers ‘little’ helper was a woman well above 6 feet of height, dark skinned, tanned enough to look as if she was golden, with short brown hair usually with it's top half tied up, not dressing too assistant-like, most of the time wearing sweatpants and t-shirts or compression shirts both which hugged her muscles tightly. She was a year five student, probably shooting towards becoming some sort of a substitute teacher.
She brought insecurities to boys from X's year group, being much more well built than the majority of them. During lectures whispers and giggles could be heard between other girls, who'd wonder whether she's even a woman with a silhouette like that. What was caught by X's attention was how a student made it, to be standing near the teachers desk, not sitting somewhere in the crowd AND still having time to hit the gym to maintain physique as impressive as hers.
A few more math lectures ran by, accompanied by naps overtaking X's consciousness and occasional glances shared with the teachers assistant. Her expression stoic, yet surely irritated and disappointed with the lack of attention from the group of students. No matter how detailed and pretty were X's notes, everything the math teacher said would go in through her one ear and escape through the other. A pretty silly idea was born in her mind. How ridiculous could it possibly be to ask the older student for help in math? Not in class of course, since that surely would be considered forbidden, but it wouldn't hurt much to ask for help outside the lectures. At least couldn't help more than failing the semester.
As one of the cruelly un-understandable lectures came to it's end, the teacher left, so did the crowd of uninterested students. As for X… she was catching up on sleep, pretty much looking dead as her head layed on her arms on her desk. She felt a strong hand on her shoulder, shaking her lightly. “Come on sleeping beauty, the class is over”. As X rubbed her eyes to regain her vision's focus, her head rose to gaze towards the voice that woke her up. She looked around herself to see the lecture Hall empty as the lights were already halfway turned off. “Fuck sorry” X mumbled more to herself than to the other, but her disorientation caused the taller woman to let out an amused chuckle as she slowly headed toward the exit. X's quickly stuffed her bag with whatever she left laying around and caught up to the other. “Wait a second I've been meaning to ask-” taller woman stopped and turned around to face the tired student. “I know you're probably really busy with lectures, gym, finals and whatever you could possibly have going on, but… I suck at *pointing vaguely towards the whiteboard filled with calculations* whatever this is supposed to be and I was wondering if I could somehow persuade you to… tutor me a little because the exam is coming up, my tutor has an elderly sick mother and I can't figure out any of those stuff on my own. Since you're here I'm assuming your math skills are thriving and mine couldn't been worse and-” a subtle deep laugh cut X off her endless ramble as a piece of paper written somewhere halfway through her monologue was written and put into her hand. “Here, my phone and dorm room number. Save your silver tongue for the teachers. If you want to pay me, bring a drink with you, for both of us and then we'll get to talking.” She waved you off and walked away.

gp nurses when you ask them to administer a medication that is not an immediately recognizable common household drug
#:)#not even kidding the gp nurse was like 'i've never heard of this drug so i need to do more research to feel confident administering it'#and then did not call back for two days#mind you this is literally just a hormone injection in a syringe and the only fancy thing is you need to take a blood pressure reading firs#like full offense but i think blood pressure readings and subcutaneous tummy injections are like. bare minimum gp nurse skills#and this isn't even a rare drug something like three quarters of kidney disease patients end up needing it#like are they genuinely saying in the however many years these nurses have been there none of them ever encountered renal anemia#it's so silly because my letter from the nephrologist comes with exact instructions on how to administer and dispose of the drug anyway#anyway. now i gotta go struggle to call the gp AGAIN and hope someone can give me an appointment -_-

The scene in Avatar: The Last Airbender where they are in the Fire Nation and Sokka has this messenger hawk, and he's like "Hey I'm gonna put a message on this hawk and send it back to these people I know!" and lets it go and everyone just accepts it like yeah of course it will get the message where it's supposed to go. That's what a messenger hawk is for. And I'm like. Do none of you understand the concept of a messenger pigeon and that they only fly back home. You are in the Fire Nation you got the bird in the Fire Nation it has never been outside the Fire Nation, How Did You Give It Directions.
#random#river rambles#this has both bothered and amused me since I first saw the episode#messenger pigeons have to be transported AWAY from home#so when you release them#they will FLY HOME#they don't just#go anywhere you want them to#I know this is a fantasy world but the animals aren't magic#and they can't read#how did it know where you wanted it to go Sokka#I'm imagining the coop that raised that particular hawk seeing it show up one day#with a random message to some foreign water nation named person#Sokka will ask people if they got his letter one day and I want someone to be like Sokka my boy#Did you get instructions on how the birds work

> went to sleep with my stomach feeling a tad unsettled, maybe an increased heart rate because of that
> woke up feeling panicky and sick so I decided to go take something for it
> sat up in bed
> immediately felt like I was gonna pass out
> heartrate SKYROCKETED in reaction
> went to go get activated charcoal (bc if I'm sick/ate something icky that usually helps) and as I was getting it felt lightheaded again
> went to tell my mom because either I needed prayer or medical intervention
> now I woke everybody up because my family's idiot (affectionate) dog barks anytime she hears footsteps
> still feel weird and am half convinced that I'm dying but my mom is 100% convinced I'm not so I am going to try and go back to bed
in short, pray for me please, idk what's going on
#did I just?? wake up having a mild panic attack????? is that all????#I've never had a panic attack (though came close last week over a complicated interaction with a customer#that could have gotten me/my place of business in legal trouble if I handled it wrong and no one was reachable for instructions)#so idk#I feel slightly queasy rn but I am going to like... read the Bible and possibly watch a comfort show or something

so apparently my roommate straightup Did Not Know that leaving your food out on the countertop for several hours can give you food poisoning. i thought when she brushed me off every time i told her to put her food away she was simply throwing caution to the wind. "ohhh, is that why i get sick so often?" FUCKING PROBABLY!!!
#eliot posts#i found this out yesterday and i am still fucking reeling#jesus christ#like. i normally don't like to make a big deal of folks not knowing things. it's not like we're born knowing them#but she is TWENTY FOUR years old and has been living alone for like FOUR YEARS#how do you not teach yourself basic food safety in that time???#also i would like to Have A Word With her parents. please teach your kids basic life skills good god#...unless they ALSO don't know#they're both college professors but they couldn't do a basic sink repair that i did in 5 minutes#im not a plumber or anything i just know how to read instructions and watch a youtube video#my roommate ALSO didn't know that ceiling fans used electricity. or that cis lesbian sex can still give you stds.#i need to be this woman's new dad or something lmao

the left hand of darkness is a hilarious book because like. what were the ekumen cooking. the first envoy on a new planet is already a generally dangerous position that often involves an early death, primarily because they have to navigate a new society with different social rules and customs all on their own with limited help from previous research. and they looked at gethen, the no gender planet, and went, "let's send the one who can't perform a vibe check to save his life and is also the straightest, most cis guy to ever dude" like ?????
#i mean it's not all their fault#they did literally hand him a document that was a woman from 40 years ago going “hey don't sort them into gender categories in your head”#“it's more complex than that pls try to understand the nuance”#and he just ignored that instruction entirely#but also he just doesn't get the political aspects of anything ever#and some of it is willful ignorance but at a certain point you as an ekumen have to wonder if the guy can read social cues at all#the left hand of darkness#words words words

Did you guys ever see the Beauty and the Beast sequel Belle’s Magical World? Every time I describe it to someone I have to comb my memory to make sure it wasn’t just a REALLY weird dream I had.
My perception of the first movie was that Belle realized Beast would never actually harm her and immediately lost all fear of him (and that his servants were never actually scared of him). But no, in this movie, he upends a table and crushes several of his living dishes. To death. We see their corpses being swept up later.
He does this because Belle called him rude. Which she did after he backhanded another one of his servants across the room because it was too hot.
Belle later feels guilty? And wants to apologize? But she wants him to apologize first. So three of the servants (who, bear in mind, are trapped as appliances until these two idiots decide to fall in love) forge a letter from Beast. Beast finds out and banishes the three of them into the snow, threatening to kill them if they return. When Beast finally does decide to apologize, he barges into Belle’s room so aggressively that he crushes Cogsworth against a wall.
Belle fosters an injured baby bird. Everyone is terrified because, we are told, Beast hates animals, especially birds. Belle is so enthralled with the little dude that she misses lunch with Beast. He flips out and barges into her room, sees the bird, and starts chasing it around the castle on all fours like a dog, trashing the place in the process. He’s so checked out in this blind rage that he slips on a flight of stairs, landing on his neck.
Suddenly, he loves the bird and decides to put it in a cage. He yells at it for awhile but it won’t sing for him. Belle says it will never trust him or be happy as long as he’s keeping it imprisoned (*COUGH*) and I’m fuzzy on the details here but then he falls off a building for some reason and the bird is free and loves him.
Beast’s comical levels of abusive behavior are broken up by a weird song from Belle, and an extended sequence where the feather duster thinks Lumiere is having sex with Belle and attempts to orchestrate their deaths. (No, not a vague disneyfied canoodling, it was clearly implied to be sex.)
No, I didn’t make any of that up. You’d think a movie this ??!?!??!??! would at least be not incredibly boring, but you’d be wrong there too.
#i can’t promise i’m not confusing any details here#belle tries to read beast the story of cinderella (?) and he’s loudly eating food the whole time#there’s a weird subplot where cogsworth tries to give the servants instructions and they keep doing musical numbers#disney#disney princess#beauty and the beast#disney movies#disney princesses#belle#the beast#belle’s magical world#disney sequels#lumiere#cogsworth#prince adam#princess belle#why did i bother tagging all this lol

no promises anymoooooreeeee i'll appear online when i appear online 😭 every time i say "ooh i think life is almost done being overwhelming!" it. becomes even more overwhelming in the dumbest ways. all i can manage rn when i'm not stressing myself into a shut-down state is staring at the wall while listening to youtube essays + mindlessly crocheting.
i might queue up ppls art and fics w/o commentary in the tags... i want other ppl to see what all of my cool friends have made, but i genuinely can't think right now with this monstrous brain fog. i'm really sorry, just. yeah. maybe i'll think of some way to make it up later!!! once the dust has settled!!!! but until then i wuv u and miss u. smiles.
[venting in tags including familial manipulation and ableism. i. didn't mean to write all of that, thiss was originally going to be a main blog post but. aaaaaAAAAAA!!!!!

#goddd my family finds it sooooooo funny that i can't do basic tasks! it's soooo funny that i can't even think of a horror movie to watch#on halloween bc i genuinely can't remember a single one right now. it's soooo funny that i can't take cardboard boxes or#old furniture out of my room without help bc i've physically and mentally and emotionally burnt out for Months.#and me not being able to move shit out after two (2) days makes me a hoarder somehow. and ofc hoarding is a moral failing#and my mom has to give me a stern talking-to about hoarding things... that were. again. in my room for 2 days....#[tbc it isnt a moral failing no matter the reason. life is hard and things happen and it can be hard to get rid of things for Reasons.]#nevermind them making constant snide remarks about me using ugly 'mismatched' desk / storage furniture. bc it was free / cheap? no income??#AND!!!!! i have a couple of new diagnoses. which doesn't change much day to day but it does make my family making fun of me#even more dumbfounding. like. this explains a lot of really scary unexplained symptoms that constantly leave me#housebound for weeks but uhhh haha hehe hoho??? so silly so funny that i'm barely conscious for multiple weeks???#and you can see that i'm getting worse but that makes it funnier??? hmm!!!#also nevermind that i've told them the exact reason why i've been like this (read: them) but that ALSO makes it funnier somehow.#but i also can't say shit bc they're doing something ~nice~ for me (out of convenience + after almost a decade of 'don't get comfortable'#and 'don't decorate this room bc it isn't yours' and 'you need to be ready to move out by x date'#only for the date to arrive and them to pull the 'i never said that. and if i did say it i didn't mean it like that.#and if i did mean it like that i don't anymore.' card. + any big renovations are things they wanted anyway. hmmmm!!#and how i have to do all of the phys labor alone bc if i ask for help i get made fun of!!! and yelled at that i'm doing things Wrong#(hint: i'm following instructions to the letter but. my family knows better than those silly things!! ^^ ))#jfc i sure did rant. uh. yeah. things. are really weird and uncomfy and i feel thankful that i finally can have my own things on display#outside of closets and bins again after a decade?? but i'm also waiting for the other shoe to drop / them to tell me i owe them in#some way??? bc that's how it works. 'i'm doing a nice thing you didn't even ask me for so now you have to do whatever i tell you to.'#meanwhile i can't even maladaptive daydream my way through it bc my brain is soup right now. can't remember basic things abt#my interests bc i've been on negative battery / spoons for a couple of months straight and it's only getting worse.#OKAY TLDR i'm not in a state to do anything until everything irl gets settled. and i'm trying So Hard to get it all over with but there's#only so much i can do in a day before i completely shut down. i didn't even get into the insurance stuff i've been fighting too ughhhh.#so if i show up on here in short spurts -- hi! bye! hi!! i wuv and care u!!! hope youre well mwah mwah!!!!!!! i'll post what i can and then#disappear when i need to recharge. it is what it is. i need to try to sleep now... uh if this post disappears when i wake up.... yeah......#📌 [ my posts. ]#💭 [ my thoughts. ]#vent -

🎃 👻Happy Halloween! 🎃👻
Kaneki’s Group Halloween Headcanon Time
☆ Everyone in the group is invited for Trick or Treating! Except maybe Shuu, but he inserts himself anyway and nobody tells him to leave
☆ Kaneki’s favourite part is seeing how many ghouls give candy to the human kids, and then real eyes and fingers to the ghoul children while trick or treating. At first he felt bad about “intruding” on a human event until he realized it was a perfect holiday for ghouls
☆ The gas masks are all about trading after trick or treating. By the end, Jiro has enough eyeballs for a biblically accurate angel, Ichimi can make his section of the room ghost-themed and Sante could replicate their boss’s torture bucket
☆ Banjou likes giving “tricks” to kids while trick or treating. Every time they walk past a large group of children together, he’ll try doing some card tricks for them that he spent a few hours practicing with Kaneki. Some kids love it, some think he’s scary, one kid started mocking him for being 25 and fumbling with cards on the street and it really hurt his feelings
☆ Shuu loves the costuming aspect of it! Every year as a child he always had the most extravagant costume, and as an adult he is no different. He spends time tailoring outfits for himself and specifically Kaneki and Hinami. This year, he dresses himself as a vampire (always one of his favorites) and Hina and Kaneki as an angel and demon. THEY LOOK VERY PRETTY.
☆ After trick or treating, Hinami asks Shuu what to do with the candy. He decides to show her some cool recipes, like flowers made from melted hard candy and mousse with a chocolate swirl lid. They decide to donate the treats to Anteiku and Hinami learns to make some cool art with her candy!
#Kaneki learned some of the card tricks from Hide btw#when they did their play as a kid Hide wanted to learn some tricks since he was the witch’s assistant I think?#and he practiced them with Kaneki#so now he passes what he remembers into Banjou!#later Banjou tries to learn some more tricks while Kaneki is away and asks Hinami to help him read the instructions#he gets pretty good at them and they joke about him summoning Touka out of a hat with his magic#tokyo ghoul#my art#tokyo ghoul headcanons#kaneki ken#tsukiyama shuu#hinami fueguchi#banjou kazuichi
