Marcille and Chikchuck? I love your Not Being Normal About Your Coworker pride shirt!
Must get to know him better must collect info on him and write self-insert fanfic like he’s blorbo from my shows vs must tease 24/7 because she’s so honors student but she gets all huffy puffy when you jab at her and it’s the only damn entertainment I have down here at my job also I gotta make sure she’s safe even though she’s an explosion expert I gotta pull her away from danger because she’s clumsy yes yes. And then the way they get frustrated at each other but still stay glued at the hips, the duality lmfaoo. "You should be more open" but wait to her not Senshi… "Leave me alone" but then he goes out of his way to tease her playfully any opportunity he gets… Ahhh coworkers to friends I love you

new hot take is that "i don’t need anyone but God" is pretty much wrong and we should stop telling people they can’t get married/have children/etc before they believe this fully. unless you have the spiritual fortitude of a hermit it is untrue. obviously God is perfection in which no lack can be found but we are not in His full presence by virtue of being on earth! if we were then we would be in heaven but we are not! in the meantime, the experience of God we have on earth necessarily includes other people whether they be friends or spouses or children. if that was not true God would not have said "It is not good for man to be alone" and given him a companion even though God himself was interacting with Adam! in this current state of separation from God as it exists on this earth, very few people can really be without all other people and rely only on contemplation and prayer. obviously God is enough and will always be enough, but our perception of Him in this fallen world is seriously lacking if we cannot experience His love through the experience of loving and being loved by others.

Unhinged ask: would you prefer to save your blorbo or be saved by your blorbo? What’s your go-to scenario?
Thank you Fells💖 That's a fun one!
So first of all, I can't choose between Aziraphale and Crowley, they're both my blorbo, they're a set I can't separate.
Okay, so I'm really bad at getting rescued because I have the "I don't want to inconvenience you" complex and the "I can fix them" syndrome, so I'm going to rescue them (someone better pray for them because I have no skills whatsoever that qualifies me for this mission, but here we go).
So we are somewhere in the middle of nowhere in a small town and in an empty supermarket car park and there is the heavenly gang including Metatron and Aziraphale and somehow they manage to get hold of Crowley who tried to sneak into heaven to find Jesus or something but got caught. And the angels prepare to smite Crowley, and it's not rhat great for Aziraphale either, as they think he is still collaborating with the enemy, but! they are still not talking! Of course Aziraphale wants to stop it, but hell, it's Metatron and his squad, what can they do? And I arrive at this car park, fed up from the day, tunnel focus, not seeing anything around me, I just want to do my shopping, but I forgot that the store is closing early! I want to drive away and only then I look in the mirror and omg!! It's them! Right here!! In front of my supermarket!
I have no idea what's going on, but it doesn't look good, so I put it in reverse and aim for the megatrash. I probably miss him by miles and hit a lamppost instead, but it's all right, there's enough chaos for them to jump away and Sandalphone loses his grip on Crowley and Aziraphale actually saves me a bit by stopping the Metatron from setting my car on fire.
And I have my coolest action moment ever when I look out the window and yell "Get in the car!" and Crowley and Aziraphale jump into the back seat (which they probably have to share with my dog) and then I drive off from the car park while we leave the other angels dumbstruck but promising to find and hunt down the demon and the traitor.
We drive out of the city, not really sure where we are going, but we get therefast. Probably due to the adrenaline, I just start babbling about how we're in a Getaway Car, like in the song, you know, isn't that funny?
And Aziraphale can barely keep Crowley from turning me into a lizard, but that just leads to a passive-aggressive exchange because they still don't talk omg. And at some point Crowley demands to be let out of the car immediately. But well. Not on my watch, so I lock the car doors, smile in the mirror in a non creepy way, and gently inform them that they can't leave the car until they've sorted their shit out. Of course, they conveniently forget that they could theoretically miraculously open the doors because well. It's them.
As they realise how hopelessly trapped they are in this car, they start to communicate and I support them by playing Queen and giving some tips on NVC and they have an emotional support dog with them and we take a scenic road and it's actually quite lovely.
(At some point my dog has to sit on the passenger seat as it is getting a bit busy back there and I decide it is better to drop them off at the nearest hotel).
(I think I maybe got carried away a little)

Part of me almost hopes that Viren's story arc will end in a disproportionately cruel way, you know.
I'm just so tired of seeing a character doing one good thing before they die or trying to change before they die and instead of the audience taking that as purposeful ambiguity the discussion will center around if the character was "Redeemed".
But imagine if he was punished so harshly that even the Viren haters would feel bad for him. Now that would be interesting! I've seen some dark speculation around season 5 so I'm looking forward to seeing how the show will contextualise his arc.
I don't understand why "Redemption" is such a popular talking point when centering villains (ok I actually do. I'm looking at you, Zuko).
"Sin and Atonement" and "Redemption" are deeply Christian themes. I don't think those should be a universal frame of reference to all stories.
Yes, yes, this is more of a fandom problem, not a show problem. But if people want to see a bad character harshly punished for their crimes maybe they should get that for once. I don't really mind because I think Viren, while unlikeable, is a sympathetic character already. Of course I feel for a character even if they are "irredeemable". That's what stories are for.
I don't mean it's a completely useless way to look at art but it's just- I don't know- I'm bored? Especially YouTube commentators talk about redemption constantly instead of engaging with the themes that actually are there.
Sometimes villains can't even really make up for everything they have done, just like some people in real life. Viren has committed so many crimes- like how do you even fix that? However it'd still be interesting if he tried to change. That's what I'm here for. Like Viren and Claudia are not just an antagonistic counterforce to our heros but they have a lot of going on as unique characters.
Viren has his saviour complex and values domination over cooperation. Claudia is interesting because she's both the victim and the perpetrator. It's interesting how self-sufficient she is while being deeply emotionally codependent on Viren. She has a ton of agency as a physically (magically?) strong person but not a ton of agency as an independent, emotionally strong individual. Viren and Claudia love each other but it's isolating kind of love where they don't really have anyone else but each other (Terry is really trying to get in there. Like sorry Terry you don't know how fucked up these two are lmao).
No wonder it was so easy to Aaravos take Viren's place as an authority figure in Claudia's life after Viren died. Or at least that's what I took away from Lost Child short and TDP season 4 in general.
I still think about the first information we got outside Viren and Claudia's POV about Aaravos's mirror: Runaan's warning about "A Fate Worse Than Death".
This framing device sounds really important. I've been wondering how it'll play out eventually. Is it something about Viren losing his old life he worked so hard to build, or will he lose Claudia in some metaphorical or literal way? Is it something even more personal?
Personally, I'd love to see Viren live and change as a person. There are plenty of high-fantasy male characters like him who go through that kind of transformation: Guts from Berserk, Geralt of Rivia, Jaime from GoT, Ged the Wizard... You know, characters who realise that the things they value are unsustainable or even harmful to themselves and to people around them and even to the world as a whole. Or they realise that superficial things like status and power are unfulfilling and only serve status quo. There are some parallels to toxic masculinity/ hegemonic masculinity, too.
However, I think it'd be interesting if Viren's story will be a deeply tragic one. Anyway I'm here for this.

Any men out there wanna pretend to be my bf to get my parents off my case about marriage? I am so so serious right now.
#my mom gave me a really really lonf lecture and upset me because her and my dad want me to start thinking about settling down ans getting#married. again. cos this comes up all the time. ans I reiterated that i do wanna marry and have kids. i know im 26 years old why do they'#think im also not aware of this??? like i suddenly forgot my own age and have my head in the clouds all the time. and i got so heated cos i#said they only believe in that in theory. in reality neither of them have accepted the idea od my leaving home or the idea of mw being with#a man. and they start freaking out if they even find out i talk to them so to say they want me to get married is so fucking naive#ans when i mentioned this and that they're more than ok w mt brothers talking tp women she said that if i wanted to settle down she could#talk to dad and they could “go about finding someone for me” and I've never been so pissed#i got so upset. why does everyone keep saying this to me. as if anyone my dad knows could ever be a half decent man#and the truth is they don't care if im in a happy marriage they've accepted that i won't be they only care that im gone and saving face in#front of family. that's all. it's always reputation it's always “what will people say?”#not once did love come up. not once did shw even imply that i should marryfor love#or that they hope i love someone and marry them. because they're more happy with the idea of me marrying for the sake of it than#they are at the idea of me finding genuine lovw#im not a fucking broodmare im not here to push out babies for the sake od reputation.#and then i said nor being married isn't the end of the world and she said “it's important that you settle down”#and i said im unwavering in my principles. she can call mw high maintenance like she loves doing but I'm not wavering on the#kind of man i want to be with and when i do marry him i want it to bw genuine. because be loves me and vice versa not because im ticking off#somethin from a damn checklist to appease them. and if being unwavering on my principles means staying unmarried then so be it.#my obligations are to god and myself and that's it#and y'know what??? i am in love with a boy already#and yet they don't care that i wanna be in love at all. no im just a puppet to follow a certain narrative in life live according to evergone#else has and that's it.#im done.#and then she tried to apologise by getting me a slice of cake and that somehow made me feel worse.#i dont want an apology. i want to be heard and actually listened to for once. i want someone to ask what i want. to actually give a shit#and love me cos it's me. not cos im some thing to further an agenda. or some toy or puppet that does your bidding.#is it so much??? to just want to be loved in return? to marry and live according to how i want to?? ans not want anyone to make these#decision's for me?#ruined my whole day.

Ok im back and sorry for the oc question but I’ve been thinking about this for awhile…Another of my vessel group is Albus, His whole Character Arc is trying to find the pale king and the white lady (he misses his family and didn’t understand the whole ditching in the Abyss thing) I wrote my Ocs in the context of the Embrace the void ending, So in the end the other siblings in the group help Albus find the white lady, And then he kinda just….sits there…Because Albus doesn’t understand parental love, He thinks parental love is siting in their general vicinity, So he just kinda sits next to white lady,Unless his siblings come back to check on him, Then he gets up for a minute to spend time with them, Os how would fpk react to this random vessel just…Showing up and start siting in his general vicinity? Like honestly I want to know
Tumblr media
I think it would be very awkward to him. He's still haunted by the guilt of what he did, so in his mind all the vessels have every right in the world to hate him. Holly was, in his mind, just an exception, one he was able to rationalize - he hurt them by sacrificing them for nothing, but unlike the other vessels, they did experience some of his affection and care. Of course it wasn't enough for a child, but it was enough for them to get attached to him and crave more, so even though he felt like he didn't deserve their kind welcome after all those years, it at least made some sense to him.
But with a vessel that hasn't experienced anything but the cruel difficulty of climbing out of the Abyss? He would have no idea how to go about it. They had every reason to hate him, so why don't they?
That's not to say he would act distant towards them, he would without a doubt show them kindness, they are his child after all and they deserve affection. He wasn't able to show it to them back then so he has an obligation to do it now. Though he wouldn't do it just because it's right and what he's supposed to do, he does see them as his child, and he is very affectionate towards his offspring. I fully believe that if the vessels were never meant to be mindless void beings, and instead were born in normal circumstances, that he would love them as dearly as he loved hornet. His error was incorrectly assuming that they didn't think or feel, which unfortunately ended in the death of many sentient beings. He may have not killed them directly and intentionally, but their suffering was his fault, and he'll never forgive himself for that.
But to get back on point. It would be awkward for him, sure, but he would reach his hand towards them to show them affection. He wouldn't just ignore them and treat them like a background prop, the way this AU's White Lady would - she never felt the same inherent affection for the children as he did, unfortunately. And while she does feel guilt about her part in the act, she doesn't see them the same way FPK does. Though I doubt she would be very affectionate towards a legitimate child either. She's very cold and distant, affection isn't something she prioritizes, and that often makes her seem quite self-absorbed. She always says she loved FPK, and in her own way she did, but she rarely showed him actual affection, even in intimate situations she was more occupied by her own needs than his feelings. I jokingly say that he was her trophy husband but that's not even far from the truth. To their subjects, he was the king and she was his queen, but in reality their dynamic was far closer to the opposite, where she called the shots and he danced to her requests. Perhaps to a being similar to her that relationship would be perfectly healthy, but FPK is a very emotional being so he ended up hurting throughout the entire marriage. But to bring this closer to the point, I don't see her being a loving mother, that kind of close emotional bond a child would need isn't in her nature. Which is why she never planned to have any actual children in the first place, and why she wouldn't treat this vessel any different. She would try to be nice to them and invite them to her garden mansion, but that's about as far as it would go. They would be treated as a guest, not like her offspring.
But enough of the WL tangent, what would FPK do exactly the moment the vessel showed up? Well, he would invite them inside first, give them something to eat, and then perhaps show them what he's working on in the workshop. He wouldn't immediately grab them and give them a hug, since he still feels like he doesn't deserve that after hurting them. The difference between this situation and his reunion with Holly was that Holly made the first step, they were actively seeking his love so it was easier for him to give it to them. But here? If they're just sitting there, he wouldn't know what extent of affection would be appropriate. What if he tries to hug them and they think he wants to hurt them? If they never experienced any love, that would be understandable, and the last thing he'd want to do is to scare them. But if he saw that they were comfortable with it, then he would show them affection more directly.
So in short. He would try to show them love, but it would be a slower process than normal since he'd have to stop and examine their reaction to every step he takes, to make sure they're comfortable. But he would try his best to make them feel loved and cared for, that's for sure.

#negativity cw#mother mention cw#if there’s one good thing about last eeekend’s meltdown#now I know that even after almost a year of therapy which supposedly ‘saved’ her marriage to my dad#my mom still feels no compunctions about last year’s Dec 20 and 21 screamfests#where she told me she would be gifting my dad a divorce for Xmas and it would be my fault#for trying to [redacted] herself in front of me while I whisper screamed for her not to#for blaming me every year since age 13 for their marriage being in the rocks#after a year of therapy and imploring me to seek therapy myself#she still doesn’t regret any of it#I vowed to myself after last year’s Christmas meltdown that I would never get them any kind of anniversary gift again#not after a decade of being blamed as a child for their issues#and now I feel no remorse about that decision#no flowers no chocolates no cards no special surprises#I’m the eldest child and earning close to six figures and not a penny of it will go to celebrating their Union#and i don’t care how bad it makes me look#she can get a one-line ‘congrats’ in the family WhatsApp group chat and that’s it#you don’t get to scream at me every 18 months ever since I was 14#that I am the one strain on your otherwise faultless marriage#that it’s my fault my siblings will grow up in a broken home#that it’s my fault we’ll have to sell the family home of 30 years to pay for the divorce#and never apologize at all even years down the line when I’m an adult and you’ve had your ‘character development’#and expect me to celebrate your Union#it’s very very petty and idk if she’ll notice bc I’ve never really made anniversary gifts for them before#but that’s my revenge

HERE'S MY LIGHT BULB(ish) THOUGHTS on shauna's twilight breaking dawn-esque dream sequence.
we know shauna wants her baby, is scared about dying and raising this kid alone in the wilderness. so what if during her blackout, her subconscious is manifesting all of her biggest worries and insecurities? she's worried about being an ill-prepared young mother who can barely feed herself in the wilderness? she dreams of being unable to breastfeed her son and he cries from hunger pangs. she dreams of lottie feeding her son and singing lullabies to him. the one person she had been vocal about having questionable advances towards her baby.
shauna's rightfully nervous and scared about entering motherhood alone. in her dream, tai UNCHARACTERISTICALLY leaves shauna to her own devices - something tai, renowned shauna ride and die, would NEVER do. tai dumps the cot in the room, throws a judgemental look at shauna then leaves without a word. she is alone.
when shauna is finally able to provide for her kid, it's after pouring out her heart for him to hear; telling him how much she loves him, how much she wants for both of them to make it out alive, how much she wants him. her vulnerability and honesty was rewarded with the team eating her baby. is this perhaps a manifestation of her guilt of participating in the jackiefruit feast? that she will be punished for this sin by losing another person she loves dearly?
BUT shauna's dream is also offputtingly odd and creepy. the first thing she wakes up to is jackie's voice. then she opens her eyes to the girls beaming and smiling. it's creepy and eerily similar to the "we love you jackie" scene in jackie's death dream sequence. her friends, especially tai and lottie are behaving out of character. so did she nearly die from her placenta previa and postpartum haemorrhage situation and this was her obligatory near death hallucination bit?
