#first house planets

[lunaroracleofvenus]

The effect each planet has in the COMPOSITE first house via tarot <3

take it with a grain of salt babe <3

Sun: This is not a deeply emotionally fulfilling placement, more so surface level vibrance. I don’t think energetically this a long term commitment indicator. It gives the vibe of summer romance, giving you a season of pleasure and possibly lesson about your standards/expectations…A placement for fun, and good times…there might be so much focus on individuality that a partner can feel neglected in a type of connection like this. Very fun, but might not be deeply nourishing. This might be a very “karmic” placement. Karmic in the sense its a very intentional union, and very divinely calculated. A very creative composite placement. 

Moon: a very loving placement. This composite chart placement brings trust, surrender and a lot of creation/fertile energy. This relationship might take longer to unfold but when it does its “real love”. Moon in the first house contains this energy of being, and not rushing towards a certain direction. Just very emotionally fulfilled. A very “head in the clouds” placement.

Father john misty - Real love baby

Sara bareillies - love song

Jupiter - so jupiter composite in the first house is a relationship where you are supposed to learn more about independence and relying on yourself, this is not a good indicator of collaborating and prosperity. In the composite, it seems to create ego clashes, competition, and deterioration. I think this deterioration  is happening to create space for better in your life. There might be an expanded sexual appetite when together. But yeah, in this relationship, “bad” things might occur but it is being brought up for positive changes. Emotionally up and down though!

Up and down - doja cat 

Venus - in these relationships you learn alot about your needs, and what love is and isn’t. There will be ALOT of shifting and releasing. This relationship could feel a bit like whiplash when it comes into your life. Surprisingly the first house moon placement is more comfortable compared to Venus. But yeah, this placement indicates fully being loved for who you are, and fitting each other perfectly. There might be a struggle to balance priorities when you have a 1h composite venus relationship.  But yeah, you learn to stand up for your needs, and really recognize your shadow self for some reason in a connection like this? A bit of a defensive relationship? definitely highlighting aries venus vibes.

Imperfect for you - Ariana Grande

Eternal sunshine - Ariana Grande

Pluto -  this might be confusing placement. Alot of second guessing energy. This placement indicates both parties thinking about each other heavily. The pluto composite in the first house is the scenario of when you’re in the airport and you make eye contact with that really attractive person, and never see them again, and they somehow still haunt your memory. This is a pretty isolating placement, in the sense maybe you both get sucked into your own world, which can cause imbalance with your social life and other personal relationships. High possibility of people trying to interfere in a connection like this. Forbidden romance. “Where finding love is a battle,” …. Might be a bit of chaos in a connection like this, but in the end it will be “alright” this is the type of connection, you run back to, or feel trapped by. Like you just can’t leave. Strong hold on the past and memories for this connection. Very binding.

intro(end of the world) - Ariana Grande

Be alright - Ariana Grande

Neptune - this is probably one of the only placements that went how i expected it. Very idealistic placement and can create unrealistic expectations of each other. Being grounded and present will definitely be a task this pair will have to tackle while together. Can be very focused on the future, what ifs, and imaginary scenarios while together. This is the type of connection that you would truly have to discern your reasons for why you are in it because both parties might stay for the wrong reasons.

 It is highly likely that the reason these two agreed to be in a relationship is not as “real” as they may think. This could possibly translate into the reason being very “spiritual”, which is very “unreal” in terms of what we consider reality but yeah. Very watery connection. People might attract this connection when they are at a “cross road” in their life. Life might need them to truly define themselves and what direction they want to go. Tendency for shorter relationships. But yeah, this connection can be very obsessive, and sexual as well. 

Lake Missoula - Richy Mitch and the Coal Miners

Everyday - Ariana Grande

Mars - this placement is actually really good?? In the first house composite.. a very inspiring placement. Both individuals are pushed to become who they want to be. And they have a very high likelihood of achieving their goals when together. There is no stagnancy here, a overall very great placement for a relationship where you are evolving. This is the relationship that you glo up in and create legacy. If you felt limited, had doubts, and felt stagnant before, when this connection comes into your life, the energy in your life becomes a 180. Again, a  very glow up, new persona placement. Financial stability is highly likely when together. Opportunities seem to come, and when you do, you’ll be more ready than you anticipate when together!

Alameda - gonna bleach my eyebrows

Ogi - follow me

Saturn - I wouldn’t say this is the most loving connection. My tarot cards just highlight a lot of loss and despair. This is NOT an indicator of romance but it still seems binding. There might be responsibility or respectable reason for staying with each other. There is a lot obligation and sacrifice of personal dreams.  You might limit yourself in a connection like this. The first house is who we are together, and saturn is symbolically limiting and loves to test and push to the limits. This composite placement reminds me of the stay at home mother, that has to sacrifice her dreams for her husband to prosper, so she is stuck at home, a shell of herself.

16 carriages - beyonce

[bloodofasteria]

whatever planet is in your 1st house, people try to provoke out of you. moon in first = feelings, mars in first = anger, mercury in first = intelligence etc

[vaguely-concerned]

so for obvious reasons, rye is not generally all that popular with most of the senior watchers. however. I think there is a certain type of younger watcher to whom he is The ultimate hot badboy icon and fantasy. (we're talking about a group of extreme indoor kid goth nerds who've barely been outside. it doesn't take a lot ot achieve bad boy status in this context and the only thing in this world that lasts forever is a bad reputation in a small insular group like the watchers.) it's SO funny because rye thinks of himself as such a disappointing fuckup of a son of the grand necropolis. and meanwhile there are novices kicking their feet and giggling as they're like

'Ingellvar is so cool. no one knows where he's from he was found down here as a baby. mysterious orphan appeal. he could be a secret dalish prince or something for all we know. (*annoyed extra nerd watcher novice voice*: umm actually the dalish don't have princes, merrivar?? read a real book sometime maybe???) he's a rebel. he doesn't care what the senior watchers think no time for politics he just gets the job done. (*small sad rye voice* I care a lot what the senior watchers think actually. a pathetic amount, in fact. it just rarely seems like it helps anything at all) I heard he graduated almost top of his class even though he spent all his time as a student partying up in the city and having a torrid affair with the son of a noble family. sometimes in his spare time he wears a cool punk leather jacket but like the fantasy version of that. he has tattoos apparently but no one's seen them for years. yuh-uh it's true too, I know someone who knows someone he dated once. they say he saw a knife fight once. like, in a bar brawl, with living people. all that, and he's even sneakily emotionally unavailable. *starry-eyed sigh* what a dreamboat'.

needless to say this only grows worse with the events of the game, after he takes out the formless one and rumours start to spread that he maybe killed a god or something too???? and this being nevarra, more importantly he's out there killing dragons with his sworn companions?? like a fucking fairytale prince but with that devil-may-care rebellious streak???? he's the safely unavailable first crush at a distance of many a young watcher. now imagine the reaction when he shows up home for the first time in a year after the war of the banners accompanied by The one true bad boy fantasy to rule them all: literally the sad brooding crown prince of the crows of antiva in leather pants who has WINGS and a dark tortured side of his nature that he has to constantly battle against for the sake of those he loves.

(the perception vs. reality situation for both of these characterizations is. so unspeakably hilarious needless to say. consider how much of the above lucanis characterization is accurate to the person he actually is and then you've basically found the level of distortion lens being applied to rye as well. is most of it technically true? sure. 'technically' is having to do a whole world of heavy lifting there tho fhdfska)

what I'm really saying here is that there is a subsection of this group that's been ferociously writing rye/lucanis rpf from the moment they were seen trotting down into the necropolis depths together (other pairings within the lighthouse gang as a whole, caught in tantalizing glimpses as they visit the necropolis, of course having their own devotees), and when this fandom subgroup eventually discover they were right it's with all the insane glee of a sixteen year old fanfic writer on wattpad (is that still where the kids are these days. idk i'm getting old folks) finding out that their dark mafia prince AU is basically true. varric might be gone but the legacy of friendfiction lives on after him. the king of thedas rpf being the shoulders of titans that young watchers are standing on to write fevered WILDLY inaccurate depictions of the private life of two of the most low-key domestic quietly devoted and undramatic people on the continent, one of them being varric's own poor little meow meow slash mentee, is something that can actually be so personal. rye does not end up terribly famous in the end considering the shit he manages to get done in this game, and he thanks his lucky stars for it. but to a tight-knit community of mourn watch fic writers he is blorbo from my apocalypse. it's all I could have wished for him.

(funniest possible outcome of all this: myrna gets so fucking tired of trying to understand what the novices are being so tittery about that she asks rye 'watcher ingellvar with the realization that this is a long shot and the admission that vorgoth and I have exhausted all other avenues of investigation: do you possess secret insight about what an 'x reader' is. and also 'ship war'. your name seems to come up in this context a surprising amount'. 9000000 points of incoming psychic damage about to hit the fan.)

[apollosgiftofprophecy]

I’m not super familiar with TSATS (have only heard secondhand things about why it sucks) but would you be willing to speak about the issues you have with it?

I'll try to keep this relatively short (future Alder: HA) and to the point, because, well...there's a lot of ground to cover. If I missed anything, or if anybody else wants to add on their own grievances, consider this your ready-made platform!

Also, if you did like TSATS, this is your warning to scroll. I respect your opinion, and simply ask you to respect mine.

In no particular order (and as they come to mind-)

Hades sends Nico to Tartarus

This makes ZERO sense because Hades was the one to BAN Nico in the first place. Furthermore, he sends Nico because he, Hades, cannot just scoop Bob out of Tartarus...but then later does just that with another character. MAJOR plot hole, and a dumb one too.

this also makes Hades the WORST godly parent btw. at least Zeus didn't send Apollo to superhell.

that moment when you're an even worse parent than Zeus...a canonical abuser...

2. Where Are The Campers

For SOME ODD REASON Nico and Will are the ONLY demigods at CHB. Only ones. There is NO POSSIBLE WAY that they are the ONLY year-round campers, especially since this directly contradicts- you know, already-established canon. Austin and Kayla are both year-round campers. Damien White and Chiara Benvenuti. Billie Ng. Miranda Gardner and Sherman Yang. Harley. Cecil Markowitz. They are all year-round campers, and have been established as such since The Hidden Oracle.

There is NO WAY they ALL suddenly decided to be summer campers.

Not to mention...with some focus on Will, you'd think we'd get some attention- even a bit! - towards his siblings, right?

NOPE. AUSTIN AND KAYLA ARE OUT OF THE PICTURE RIGHT OFF THE BAT.

oh and the three newest Apollo kids- Jerry, Gracie, and Yan- just don't exist I guess. rip the new kids because THEY ARE NEVER BROUGHT UP.

3. The Tone & Pacing

Look. I know TSATS is aimed towards mainly middle schoolers. But so is the rest of the RRverse.

And you know what TSATS does that the rest of them don't?

It treats the reader in a condescending manner.

Or at least, that's what I felt. When I was reading, I got to the part where we meet the god of nightmares, and then we're suddenly hit with a PSA on gender identity and I was like "...okay. there's no need to shove it down our throats. you could have just had them correct Nico and Will without giving everyone a lecture. especially since GODS WOULDN'T GIVE A FUCK ABOUT GENDER IN THE FIRST PLACE." <- Canon! See Apollo's return to Olympus in Tower of Nero! He says mortals have strange conceptions of gender! It's fucking canon.

There was no need for that PSA. There are much more natural ways of incorporating LGBTQ+ identities than constantly talking down to the reader. Children are not dumb. They do not need LGBTQ+ topics dumbed down to understand them. I was 12 when I first read House of Hades, and after a bit of brain buffering because I wasn't exposed to much LGBTQ+ things, I understood that Nico liked guys and not girls. I understood he was gay.

And there was no PSA needed for me to understand that. Just as there was none needed during the entire series of Trials of Apollo, narrated by our first bisexual protagonist, Apollo. The only time where it could get PSA-y is when Apollo breaks the fourth wall for a split-second to essentially tell homophobes to fuck off.

Something along the lines of- "What's that? Oh, are you wondering if I'm okay with my son dating a dude instead of a girl? HA! Of course I am lol do you know who I am."

And that's that. also solangelo fic writers who make apollo homophobic...you best stay away from me, okay? okay. i know you exist.

Magnus Chase introduces Alex Fierro without getting preachy about genderfluid or trans people. because guess what! THEY ARE JUST PEOPLE.

Plus- the RRverse books are fun reads for adults too. I'm able to reread just about any book ('just about' because of tsats now...) without feeling like I'm being treated like a 5 year old.

which was what reading tsats was like tbqh.

As for the pacing? It's. So. Slow.

tsats has 60 chapters.

HOW COME HALFWAY THROUGH - AND I COUNTED BTW - WE AREN'T EVEN IN TARTARUS?

in the words of a mutual- "I shouldn't be rooting for the gays to go to Hell already."

by this point in a normal RRverse book, we'd already be on the road, had a few near-death experiences, perhaps some actual death, character bonding and growth, ect ect.

Instead we get...whatever happened in the first half. so unimportant that i honestly don't care to remember.

but i will for this post and that will be that.

4. UwU Nico & Cardboard Will

If I haven't already pissed off the stans...I am going to now.

So. Many. Times.

So many times Nico is treated like the poorest, most tragic uwu emo boi who has suffered more than anyone else. and it's done in a very off-putting and rather irritating way.

not to mention, Will suffers as a result. He didn't feel like a person in tsats. Instead of building up a character for him, everything falls flat.

Example? Will admits he feels guilty over killing Octavian. Great! Perfect time for a character moment! Dealing with trauma-guilt! How has this affected him?

What we get? Nothing. It's not treated as any sort of trauma, and that becomes a trend in this book with Will.

Apparently, Will has not suffered. Not like Nico, the poorest of meow meows. Will has no trauma. Yes, even after fighting through two wars and stressing out over the possibility of losing his father (who he loves and adores very much) for good, Will is trauma free!! He knows nothing of suffering!! Yes, the majority of his siblings were ruthlessly slaughtered, going from 20 to 3 campers by the time of ToA, but no!! Will has no trauma!! because he's sunshine hot therapy boyfriend!!

This Will does NOT feel like the Will we met in Blood of Olympus, or like the Will in ToA. These Wills are stubborn and kind, fiercely loyal to their father, and most importantly, feels like a human being.

Which brings me to my next point...

5. The Apollo Conundrum

A couple things to say here.

Will keeps acting like he hasn't seen Apollo in forever. That he never came back after going after Python.

A complete, blatant, lie because Apollo did come back after going after Python! He was there when the fucking tsats prophecy was made in the first place!

Did Mark even read ToA. At all.

One good thing came of this, I guess. At least Apollo wasn't character assassinated, even if you could argue he was anyway because he never shows up.

A direct contradiction to where we left off in ToA.

FURTHER. you know what infuriates me?

Apollo's arc about being able to change, no matter what you've done in the past or who you are, is shoved onto Nico in a very half-assed manner.

That pissed me off. Nico did not NEED such an arc. He is VERY MUCH ACCEPTED AT CAMP. WE HAVE PROOF BECAUSE THE ORACLE OF DELPHI WAS ABLE TO MOVE ON TO RACHEL.

pardon me i need to scream.

FUCK

okay. i'm good.

...for now.

6. The 'Coming Out' Scene

oh my lord and savior jesus christ this GOT ON MY NERVES.

so on paper, sounds good right? solangelo comes out to CHB, in a positive, welcoming environment! very nice!

...EXCEPT THEY ARE ALREADY OUT AND IN A RELATIONSHIP IN TOA. THERE WAS NO NEED FOR THIS AT ALL.

not to mention just how utterly ridiculous it's handled. apparently, solangelo inspired other campers to come out- a good thing- but...

this is so laughably dumb because there is NO WAY the campers aren't all cool with the LGBTQ+ community.

wanna know why?

BECAUSE THEY CAN HAVE SAME-SEX PARENTS. HELLO KAYLA, THE OG MPREG DAUGHTER

you're gonna tell me that CHB is NOT an open environment for LGBTQ+ kids? that they did NOT normalize it? really? are you really gonna tell me that? you're gonna look me in the eyes and say that?

"but sometimes it's hard to come out even in a welcoming environment!" yeah you're right there. it can be hard to do that. and i would know. because i have done just that. was shaking in my boots when i told my mom and stepdad that i was queer. despite knowing they were both supportive of queer rights.

and yet i'm saying this anyway. IT MAKES NO SENSE FOR CHB TO NOT BE AN OPEN LGBTQ+ ENVIRONMENT. ESPECIALLY CONSIDERING WHO THEIR PARENTS ARE, AND THE FACT THEY CAN HAVE SAME-SEX PARENTS.

Nico was barely at camp pre-ToA. I can totally buy him not knowing CHB is pro-queer because of how little time he spent there.

BUT THE FACT REMAINS THAT HE IS AT CHB FROM BOO TO THO, AND IS IN A RELATIONSHIP WITH WILL BY THO. ONE THAT EVERYONE KNOWS ABOUT.

and yet...tsats thinks it's a GRAND IDEA to do this coming out scene.

again. DID MARK EVEN READ TOA?

you know what else ticks me off about this? it's that Will is made to come out...by Nico.

you know. Nico. the one that the fandom flipped out over because he was made to come out. by Cupid. who is vilified for it.

and yet. it's treated by the narrative as the Right and Good thing for Nico to do. because Nico is Always Right and Good and Knows What's Best For Will.

it drove me up the wall.

also personally i'm not a fan of bisexual will. it's used too often as a 'will cheats on nico' thing in fics, so i was already disillusioned to it, and in tsats it's really only there for will to briefly thirst over persephone for some odd reason. let us have a gay4gay couple please i am begging you. but that's a personal opinion and i get it if you like bi will. that's just my thoughts.

7. The Bob Thing

this is something that's been on my mind ever since i first heard of tsats.

Is rescuing Bob even necessary? Like...okay, from a worldbuilding perspective...what does he add? Or was all this just fanservice done to 'save' a character who, by all rights and purposes, should be double dead. worse than dead. nonexistent.

like. first of all...how did Bob end up trapped by Nyx, when he was fighting Tartarus? Tartarus who, btw, is able to disintegrate you and cause you to cease to exist. Which is what- canonically! - happens to Damasen.

I guess Bob is different? But...so is Damasen. Since they are fundamentality different from their respective brethren...shouldn't they both have been safe from Tartarus's power? And not just Bob?

Look. I like Bob. I was so sad when we lost him in HoH. But honestly?

I think bringing him back cheapens his & Damasen's sacrifice.

Not to mention...I vividly remember earlier in the book, Nico for some reason takes a pot-shot at Percabeth, assuming that they wouldn't care about Bob.

Like. Hello?? That pissed me off too because it's such a gross misjudgment of both Percy and Annabeth that I had to take a few minutes to cool off before continuing the incoming shitshow.

8. Will's Powers

another hot take alert.

I don't subscribe to Plague!Will. Fun headcanon, have read fics with it (subscribed to a really good one too, in fact), but not something I would accept as canon.

even if tsats "made it canon" (BIG quotations there)

here's the thing. Will doesn't need a Cool power to be useful. He has healing and light. Defensive abilities, good for a healer! Which is what he wants to be!

there's no need to give him an offensive ability. he managed perfectly fine without plague powers before this.

(coughs in "Nobody hits my boyfriend and nobody kills my dad!")

This also ties back into the whole 'Will doesn't have much of a character' thing. like okay, we've introduced this new ability! cool! it's a dangerous one, and the exact opposite of everything Will is. do we explore that? do we do anything worthwhile with it? perhaps we could take this as an opportunity for some father-son discussion?

Nope!

also for some reason Will can grow the Curse of Delos flowers by singing. something he has previously been established to not be very good at as far back as BoO- "I'm just a healer" and all that.

also also. that's not how the Curse of Delos works...they only grow on Delos, and around Cabin 7. no where else. magically growing flowers isn't even an Apollo kid power, and yes the Curse is Apollo's flower but that means nothing because Apollo kids don't grow flowers. that's Demeter.

sobs in so many contradictions

9. The...Cocopuffs.

groans dramatically.

first thing's first- What The Actual Fuck.

It's emphasized that the cocopuffs are Nico and Nyx's children.

Children Nico did not want.

Guys this is literally rape. This is literally rape why is it treated as a good thing??

i'm chill with them being manifestations of Nico's trauma. i'm NOT chill with this!! Or with Nico's trauma apparently being magically cured because of them, when he's, you know, our only character who canonically goes to therapy?

it feels like the help therapy can give is cheapened here.

plus...the Cacodemons (as they are actually called) are not good demons in the mythology. they are not good. at all. they are specifically evil spirits, and personally, I don't like the connotation that trauma correlates to them.

a better choice would have been a daimon, a neutral spirit. something that just Is and isn't bogged down by definitions of "evil" and "good".

also this is literally rape :) get it away from me.

10. The Retcons/Continuity Mistakes

Bianca Is Not Nico's Mom Get Your Damn Facts Right How Could You Make That Mistake It's So Dumb Like Oh My God Did You Even Do Any Reading For This-

ahem.

I will give tsats ONE point. The ONE THING I think it did right.

i know. shocking. Alder giving tsats one (1) W.

Will's mortal anchor when he fell into the River Styx.

It was Apollo. That is something I can definitely buy as canon. Will's love for Apollo is ever-present in BoO and ToA. That makes total sense for him!

(Plus, I'm glad they didn't make it Nico. cause like...come on. we already have romance with Percy & Annabeth, and we also have siblinghood with Apollo & Meg, parent & child would be the next, very cool and logical step!)

Too bad Apollo is shunted to the side in tsats and we never get to see him with Will... (oh, except in that one nightmare-induced hallucination. but that doesn't count because that's not actually Apollo. strike against you tsats.)

this is all i got. definitely not exhaustive list because i am NOT subjecting myself to reading tsats again. i will not be losing more braincells.

anywho, if anybody would like to add on their own grievances with this book, go ahead! i probs missed some.

and again. these are just my opinions/observations. this is NOT an invitation for discourse.

planets in the first house: 📝

the first house is the house of personality, character, and appearance !! when planets occupy our natal first house, we can see their influence in many different ways:

sun in the 1H: born with bright eyes and wide smiles; they radiate confidence and charisma. their facial features tend to be wide and tall. pride in appearance is especially important to these people

moon in the 1H: their faces are quite round and juvenile in nature. they often get mistaken for being younger than they are due to how youthful their appearance is

mercury in the 1H: their facial features can be somewhat small or have a bit of an “elven” quality to them. these placements are also very fond of rubbing / picking at their faces

venus in the 1H: always very beautiful people; their beauty or personal image is something they are known for. their facial features are usually quite symmetrical and smooth

mars in the 1H: known to have prominent birthmarks, dimples, freckles, sunspots, or facial scarring. they often have reddish features / turn red in the face easily

jupiter in the 1H: prone to having exaggerated features or one specific facial feature that’s larger than the others. their beauty appeals to many different people

saturn in the 1H: their faces tend to be rather geometric / gaunt. saturn governs cubes, so these placements usually have squarish or angular features

uranus in the 1H: their facial features can look a bit “alien." otherwise their faces are remarkably unique, as they often don't look like the people around them

neptune in the 1H: these placements are easily confused for other people. they have a thing for regularly changing up their appearance / making different stylistic changes

pluto in the 1H: almost have a “venomous” look to them; their eyes are typically serpent-like or reptilian. they also enjoy dark makeup, clothing, nails, hair, etc.

book a reading !!

Cosmic selfies planets in 1st house

Imagine your astrological house as your cosmic selfie—revealing your personality and how you look. Let's peek at how different planets throw their own party in your first house:

Sun in the 1H: Some people have bright eyes and big smiles, and they're full of confidence. They really care about looking good.

Moon in the 1H: Picture faces that are round and young-looking. People might think they're younger than they actually are because they have this forever-young vibe.

Mercury in the 1H: These folks might have small or kind of "elven" features. And guess what? They often like touching their faces a lot.

Venus in the 1H: Imagine someone who's always known for being beautiful. Their face is super symmetrical and smooth, making them stand out.

Mars in the 1H: People with this might have cool birthmarks, dimples, or they blush easily. Their faces have interesting features that catch your eye.

Jupiter in the 1H: Think about having features that are bigger or more standout than others. These folks are pretty attractive to lots of people.

Saturn in the 1H: Faces with angles and geometric shapes. It's like having a face made of cubes. Pretty unique, huh?

Uranus in the 1H: Imagine faces that look a bit unusual, like they're from another planet. These folks really stand out and don't look like everyone else.

Neptune in the 1H: People who might get confused for others because they like changing their looks often. They're into trying out new styles.

Pluto in the 1H: Picture someone who gives off a mysterious vibe. Their eyes might look a bit like a snake's, and they like dark and cool stuff—dark makeup, clothes, and more.

So, each planet throws its own flair into the mix, making everyone's first house unique and interesting!

new guy. his name... alan.

started a hardcore new vegas playthrough for the first time recently, and had this character design rattling around in my brain. he doesnt really have any lore or story (feel free to suggest things)

[moonilit]

sometimes reading Kory’s talk about love and how her culture normalizes poly relationships and love is separate from marriage as in yeah sometimes you marry for politics but doesn’t mean you ‘love’ that other person or they you and thats OK is so weird because, you don’t even need to go to space for that?? Its already somewhere on earth??
