If there is one more outburst...I will transfer you to a facility that is equipped to handle violent patients. And, believe me, they will be far, far less forgiving.

i'm making myself laugh thinking about this but I wholeheartedly believe madame morrible absolutely HATES the thought of glinda and elphaba being together like the mere mention of gelphie would probably send her into immediate cardiac arrest and it's not even because she's homophobic or anything I just fully believe she dislikes glinda so so much she's just like this is absolutely NOT happening in my house.

glinda and elphaba are having their gay ass moment and she's like "I sense a disturbance in the force; the wind is telling me those fucking lesbians are at it again."

like IK this woman hates to see glinda's fruity ass coming for several reasons but first and foremost I believe it's because she's so fucking ANNOYED by how much elphaba loves and cares for her, like this pink bitch is throwing a wrench in her plans just by EXISTING and being herself.

and she can't even really do anything to glinda because it'll make elphaba upset and she really can't have that so she just has to sit there and be like

Thinking about Fallen London as a backdrop for the theme of the horror of the inevitable today. I know it's The Classic Cosmic Horror Thing, but it's really woven through all aspects of Neathy life even as the PC is written powerful and capable: the constant backdrop of breath-holding for the Sixth City, the Masters and the Bazaar as a force higher on the Chain with a plan that cares not who it tramples, a ton of the Destinies aside from the LotN ones, literally anything to do with the Dawn Machine, the Flukes...the thing that changes you irrevocably could be around any corner, could drop at any second. Everything else, every other story told, is either dealing with that or written in its shadow. Sometimes the game lets you deal with it by fighting back, with the message that even though you can't hold a candle to all of it, you can change some of it and that's enough reason to try. Sometimes, the game lets you deal with it by getting drunk off your ass with a dozen rats and stealing a painting or something of the sort. Both are honestly such valid ways of dealing with The Cosmic Horror Of It All, as is just rolling out of bed every day and complaining about the weather, and the spread of each that the game's writing has is I think what's made it stick so hard as one of my favourite pieces of horror media despite only about 20% of it reading like horror.

The fact that Wrecker greeted Omega first because Hunter was probably anxiously pacing the ship worried that it wouldn't actually be her... oh I'm a mess

I think I'm in the "conscious incompetence" stage of being a social animal in the real world and it sucks so majorly. bro what do you do after you realize you're bad at socializing and then in-person interaction gets harder because you know you're failing at it now.

the urge to rewatch torchwood is battling with the pain of actually rewatching torchwood

[brightmalcolm]

She couldn't go all the way, either, which is a shame.

[barghest-land]

very tired of being in pain, however, the line between "i chose to be happy" and "i'm gaslighting how i feel" is very thin

'cause i am not a thief, but you were mine to earn

we all need to understand what this says about stolas. "you were mine to earn"—he's saying that at some point, when he began his quest to win blitz's affections, blitz became his. the prize, the trophy, the gold. blitz's affection was his to gain, he thought, because that's how it went in his fictional worlds—we know stolas likes to read. we know that for a long time, books were his only friends. but do we realize what kind of understanding on relationships that gives him?

he only ever read about whirlwind romance and dashing, rugged bad boys and posh, pretty aristocrats in ravishing love. he read about mystique and romcom love and "don't get on that train, harriet!"

he never read about arguing and rage and feelings of inadequacy and class differences and lines in the sand that were so very difficult to cross.

stolas is naive, and he is ignorant, and he is sheltered. he is brilliant, and caring, and hopeful, and hopeless.

stolas read about grand gestures and forgiveness; he read about grand gestures and blossoming love that shoved away any past grievances—and he believed every word.

this is how he sees the world, and when blitz didn't accept his gesture, he got upset. things didn't go as planned, and he was so confused because blitz was supposed to be the prize, and stolas was supposed to win him.

it wasn't supposed to be like this.

so yeah, he got angry, and he didn't give blitz a moment, and when blitz hurled vitriol at him instead of love and affection that he had expected, he reacted too quickly.

"you were mine to earn"—we can hope this means he's moved beyond that mindset, because blitz was not a prize, nor was he going to dashingly sweep stolas off his feet. and once he undersands that, and blitz has revelations of his own, maybe, finally, they can heal.

(i might write a fic about this, actually)

Poor William is tired of people making oaths and deals without a second thought of the consequences. Real bummer he's also surrounded by people who barely seem to think once most of the time. 😔😔😔

Is this a safe space to say I don't like dragon's rising? Like I watched the first couple of episodes and wasn't too invested in it. Like I see the hype and I think there's some things I like about the series (even though I haven't watched it up to these points) like lloyd having panic attacks, another tournament, and the jaya stuff but the things with the new characters isn't interesting me.

Like they aren't bad and work well for the series I just don't vibe with the new energy of the show.

Like seeing lloyd being called sensei kinda pisses me off. Like it works for his character I just don't care for it.

Also I feel like lloyds relationship with his students also frustrates me cause I don't like seeing lloyd fumble that bad at being a good mentor and I don't like that people see him as a dad to his students cause not everything has to be familial and they can just be teacher student and that's it. (No hate if you make a parental figure I just don't vibe with it)
