I love how every recent 'the impossible heir' YouTube short with Inha has reactions like, "Oh my god! So it was Inha all along?!", "Inha is the one who did this to Taeoh?!", "So Inha never really liked Hyewon at all?!", "He only liked Hyewon because of Taeoh?!", "So Inha turned villain and did this to the person who got him this far?!?!".

And then there's us on Tumblr who had predicted this is exactly what would happen since the first two episodes dropped.

Forgot something

[sad-scarred-sassy]

“And if they do not kill Feyre outright, then they might realize what they stand to gain if gifted with offspring from her, too.”

“My stomach had turned over at the implication. That I might be stolen—and kept—for … breeding. Surely … surely no High Lord would go so far.”

Does it puzzle yall that this is essentially what ended up happening? This was Ianthe arguing with Lucien about not letting Feyre train. I fucking hate Ianthe and I do think this conversation should have included Feyre but I think these points are valid (even if she probably had ulterior motives for making them).

Now fast-forward to ACOSF and the whole pregnancy thing, how Rhys was hiding from her the fact she would most definitely die (while she could have avoided by shifting herself one more time with a risk of only hurting the baby) and in the same book we have the High King conversation that shows how much the Inner Circle weaponize the sisters.

“And do not forget that Nesta herself—and Elain, with whatever powers she has—is here. Feyre is here. All three sisters blessed by fate and gifted with powers to match your own. Feyre alone doubles your strength. Nesta makes you unstoppable. Especially if she were to march into battle wearing the Mask. No enemy could stand against her.”

Rhys seemingly turns the idea down but his actions speak otherwise.

I just find it very eerie how Feyre doesn’t realize what made her stomach turn is her reality. It is also sad that a character that had to always “earn” the love she received coincidentally ended up with the one who only began to treat her with humanity when she became powerful and useful.

Write that Dead Dove shit UNAPOLOGETICALLY!!!

Remember to write whatever the hell you want. No matter how grotesque or weird it is, write it. You'll regret not writing it.

jude fans’ opinions need to stay away from my club

[weregonnabecoolbeans]

Agatha All Along is so so SO much fun!

And so far I have yet to see any of the usual fandom negativity that has been pretty unavoidable the past few years..

Whether that’s because those usual negative people are actually allowing themselves to enjoy life for once (doubtful, but one can hope)

or the more likely option..

That I have become incredibly skilled at keeping that vibe away from all my feeds..

Whichever…if I’m being delusional or not, it doesn’t matter to me..

I’m just happy to sit in my little bubble of positivity..

and enjoy this series..

and continue to love my favourite franchise

no matter how many people love to complain about fun :)

Kinda sad. Kinda really want attention.

re: the latest post about the reddit guy

I mentioned it in the thread and on twt, but I'd also like to take the time to clear this up for anyone who's familiar with my work on tumblr:

yes, jeanpiku is my otp, but it is 100% ok with me if you personally don't like it. I think what's important is to remember that there's a way to disagree with someone's opinion and have a discussion without being rude and disrespectful.

plus we don't always have to share the same opinions in order to get along! as long as you're not a jerk about it and we can talk in a civil manner, then it's all well and good. I have friends I'm close to that don't ship jeanpiku at all, and at least 2 friends that outright hate it. and that's fine! as long as you're kind and we vibe, that's truly all that matters. (plus there are many other things we can talk about and bond over that aren't jeanpiku, yk? 🤷🏻‍♀️)

so anyway, yes. if you're reading this, whether you ship jeanpiku or not—as long as you're respectful to people, then we're good. <3 at the end of the day, there are more important things that matter over shipping anyway.

Honestly, Inha would have been WAYYY less fucked up if Taeoh had taken time out of all that planning and plotting and railed Inha's ass like he deserved.

[neotrinitysource]

Neo and Trinity's love story is the most beautiful and the most compelling love story that has ever been created.

Period.

End of story.

I will not have arguments.

That is all.

5SOS IG Story

[studentbyday]

for the first time ever i left an exam unsure of an answer, found out i was wrong upon googling, and just said to myself, “oh well. i did my best under the circumstances,” those circumstances being on a time crunch (during review and during exam) and burnt out. i know i didn't fail, and i still have my hopes up (relatively speaking) for a pretty decent grade 😅 but i feel as if i have nothing left to prove. there is only the quiet satisfaction of knowing i did the best i could under the circumstances and the freedom of feeling able to move on.

is this a sign of growth or have i found myself on a slippery slope to mediocrity? 😅

we shall see... 🙃

[kybelles]

it’s been a while since i last saw this take but to this day i still can’t fathom where the notion of “damen was a spoiled prince who shirked his duties in order to have fun with his slaves so kastor was forced to pick up after him” even came from… like is there any piece of evidence pointing at this in canon? damen… shirked his duties… the same damen who commanded armies at seventeen…

Little Rhaenyra&Aegon headcanons?

you put me in such a happy mood anon 🥰 here:

Little Rhaenyra&Aegon headcanons

1) Rhaenyra was always beautiful even as a child. When men started taking notice of her changing looks and begun approaching her at court to share a dance or to offer her a talk, little Aegon would go and roar at any lord, thinking he could mimic the dragons and scare men away from his sister

2) Little Aegon likes to throw things and when they break fast, food becomes a weapon. His sister is the closest and most approachable target, which results in a lot of... vocal arguments let's say. While child Rhaenyra is considered old enough to know better than to childishly toss food she's not hesitant to tag Aegon's hair as a punishment - which leads to a screaming match. Both of them have strong lungs 😭

3) Originally little Aegon wanted to name his dragon after a Valyrian God but Rhaenyra teased him about copying her and he held a grudge so he decided to make up his own name.

4) He once stole a perfume their uncle Daemon had gifted Rhaenyra from Lys because he liked the scent of it. Accusations were made and of course they were all denied so she had to write to Daemon about sending her another one (he ended up stealing that too)

5) Both of them are constantly told to reread The Seven-Pointed Star when they misbehave. Both of them find ways to not do it

6) While she tried to stay away from baby Aegon any time he threw a fit. She loved it when he slept in her arms. He was such an energetic baby, so falling asleep wasn't too hard once he was finally drained

7) Rhaenyra is made to read a lot of books to be properly educated in her responsibilities as a heir, but little Aegon gives her the opportunity to go back to her favorite old books that were fairytale stories of their ancestors and old valyria. Rhaenyra is a very dedicated reader and makes the best funny voices - which results her to being the best storyteller in little Aegon's opinion.

8) Rhaenyra flew with Aegon on her Syrax when he was a baby. She wanted to honor the Targaryen tradition her grandmother did (when she took her father and uncle on her dragon as soon as they were born) and since her father's dragon is dead and Alicent doesn't have one, she thought she was the one who should do it. Safe to say Alicent was not happy about this. But baby Aegon and little Rhaenyra had a blast.

I heard that Edward IV and Elizabeth Widvile were known to be very beautiful. Were there any reports on their appearance at the time?

anon 😂

But yes, contemporaries and post contemporaries in the 16th century were pretty much unanimous in praising their appearance. I'll list some of the ones I could find:

Elizabeth:

'The most beautiful woman in England' ('la plus belle fille d'Engleterre') - Jean de Waurin

'Her very great beauty' ('sa tres grande beaute') - Jean de Waurin

"Her beauty of person and charm of manner" - Dominic Mancini

"None of such constant womanhood, wisdom and beauty" - Hearne's Fragment; its author was one of Edward IV's servants

"A daughter of prodigious beauty' - 1469 Continuator of Monstrelet's Chronicle

"Both faire, of a good favor, moderate of stature, well made and very wise" - Thomas More

Edward IV:

"The beauty of your personage it hath pleased Almighty God to send you" - James Strangways, Speaker of the Commons in Parliament

"The king is a handsome upstanding man" - Gabriel Tretzel, travels of Leo of Rozmital

"A handsome prince and had style" - Oliver De La Marche

"In the flower of his age, tall of stature, elegant of person" - Croyland Chronicle

"One of the handsomest knights of his kingdom" - 1469 Continuator of Monstrelet's Chronicle

"A handsome and worthy prince" - Pietro Alipranto

‘...Tall and strapping as the king’ - John Paston, Paston Letters

"He was young and more handsome than any man then alive" - Philippe de Commynes

"A man so vigorous and handsome that he might have been made for the pleasures of the flesh" - Philippe de Commynes

"The handsomest prince my eyes ever beheld" and "I don't remember ever having seen a man more handsome than he was" - Philippe de Commynes

"A very handsome prince" - Louis XI, from the Memoirs of Commynes

"He being a person of most elegant appearance, and remarkable beyond all others for the attractions of his person" - the Croyland Chronicle, referencing Edward a few months before he died

"He seized any opportunity that the occasion offered of revealing his fine stature more protractedly and more evidently to onlookers" - Dominic Mancini, writing shortly after his death

"He was a goodly personage and very princely to behold...of visage lovely, of body mighty, strong and cleanly made; howbeit in his latter days, with an over liberal diet, somewhat corpulent, but nevertheless noy uncomely" - Thomas More

Etc.

I'm tagging @edwardslovelyelizabeth because I think you got a similar ask?

I hope this answers your question, anon! I don't generally pay a lot of attention to the physical appearance of historical figures (I find it pretty irrelevant), but in this case, it ultimately does play a role in both Edward IV and Elizabeth's historiographies for better and for worse, and seems to have actually been a personal prop of Edward's kingship, so I don't mind discussing it :)

there's 16 things happening always and i feel like i have to look at them through 12 different angles to try and grasp what's really going on around here sos

consider... if there's no witch. as in "no magical being walking around in broad daylight making deals with you". this instantly becomes severely suspicious behavior and "the virtuous part of me and the part that sided with the witch repeatedly fought each other" "the witch whispers" sounds exactly like any other moment where you have maria making a distinction between her mother and "the witch" or eva beatrice whispering to eva that she should keep the gold all to herself. also IMPRISONED is a very strong choice of word. hmm something something here hmmm.
