(I am glad you all healthy and ok now) If possible, my request is demigod yuu who is related to Hephaestus.
𝐓𝐖𝐒𝐓 𝐖𝐈𝐓𝐇 𝐃𝐄𝐌𝐈 𝐆𝐎𝐃!𝐘𝐔𝐔 ( 𝐇𝐄𝐏𝐇𝐀𝐄𝐒𝐓𝐄𝐔𝐒 ) 🔥🔨

Hephaestus (UK: /hɪˈfiːstəs/ hif-EE-stəs, US: /hɪˈfɛstəs/ hif-EST-əs; eight spellings; Ancient Greek: Ἥφαιστος, romanized: Hḗphaistos) is the Greek god of artisans, blacksmiths, carpenters, craftsmen, fire, metallurgy, metalworking, sculpture and volcanoes. Hephaestus's Roman counterpart is Vulcan.
The number one craftsman in nrc, many students believe that their creation is ambued with divine magic to make it more powerful than anything in twst although they are exaggerating about it due to their technology not reaching the same level as them.
They are known for their brilliant mind, excelling in mechanical and magical engineering, often tinkering with devices and enchanting weapons in Ramshackle. The ramshackle has become a fortress for their craftsmanship.
Instead of just being a rundown dorm, Yuu has converted part of Ramshackle into a mini-forge—complete with an anvil, enchanted hammers, and a constantly burning furnace. The ghosts enjoy watching them work and sometimes help fetch materials.
They are socially awkward but kind, they struggle with self-worth, feeling like an outsider due to their divine nature and lack of attractive qualities.
Due to their divine craftsmanship, their hands and arms bear permanent scorch marks that glow faintly when they work. They wear gloves to prevent others from noticing, but they don’t mind the burns themselves.
If something is broken—whether it’s a dorm’s plumbing, an enchanted mirror, or even a magical staff—students instinctively go to Yuu. Even Crowley occasionally bribes them to fix school property.
Despite their physical durability, they hate unnecessary movement. They’ll pick up a 200-pound cauldron like it’s nothing, but will whine about walking to class.
Not a lot of students know this but demi god!yuu is also a talented seamstress they are able to create clothing that is fire proof as well imbued with magical capabilities, one example of this craftsmanship is that their own uniform is fire proof.
They also possessed abnormal strength accidentally breaking a door knob or accident when trying to open it, as well breaking Crowley arms on first interaction and they accidentally forgot to control the amount of pressure they need to put before breaking someone arm.
As well one time a noble student in pomifiore commands them saying they need to make them a wardrobe and actually insults their appearance was thrown out of the window by them good thing they're not harm.
Vil actually ask them if they can build him a magic mirror that can help him pick outfits and answers his question and the next week, demi god yuu visit the pomifiore dorm and reveal vil the magic mirror he commissioned from them it was radiant and beautiful with golden crusted with apples and knifes decorated on the sides perfect for the dorm leader of the beautiful queen and when ask a question it replied, proving it work.
Everybody was at aww and clapping, rook was releasing some tears as well. Vil paid demi god yuu a hefty model as a thank you.
Becomes nrc handy man, if there's anything broken you know who to call. Many students seek them for enhancement for their gadgets like Carter phone was upgraded by them.
I like to imagine they build like puppets to help them manage the forge, as well take care grim when they're too busy doing commission. Many students commented that the ramshackle temperature is hot very hot like an oven.
Crowley actually checks in on them— but only to beg them to fix school property or basically to make magical enhancement towards the school building.
Sebek admired them because when he's at the dorm talking about the briar valley and how his young master is so cool, demi god!yuu have an idea to try to create a traditional briar valley weapon to show towards sebek and when he asks why they did it, demi god yuu just responded towards being curious about making one.

No clue what this show is
However you (and others) [but mostly you I think]
Keep posting about this show
No clue about it however it has burn Gorman
If Tumblr man has deemed it worthy I shall fold
Good day to you,
First of all your message had me SCREAMING- I keep posting about this show because it is AMAZING and I DO DEEM IT WORTHY, here's a short introduction, hope it helps!
1. the show is basically a prequel to Hamilton, we've got Washington-
Tumblr media
...and his merry band of spies:
Worst spy ever- former cabbage farmer
Tumblr media
...and his badass wife!
Tumblr media
Anna Strong (mother of rebellion and angel)
Tumblr media
These two hobos (Benjamin Tallmadge, Caleb Brewster)
Tumblr media
2. And there's HIM- Major Edmund Hewlett aka Oyster Major (BC of the Oyster Bay) a gentleman-
Tumblr media
Babygirl,
Tumblr media
Fashion icon
Tumblr media
But most importantly a cutie pie
Tumblr media
The character development of that man I SWEAR, god how I love when AMC does it. I'm not going to spoil everything,
Tbh, I came to watch the show for Washington but stayed for the Oyster Major<3
It's a good-paced drama, which reminds me a lot of 'Hell On Wheels', costumes and photography are STUNNING, and Burn ATE SO WELL. It is however bloody, so it might not be everyone's cup of tea, but I do recommend it nonetheless!
Hope you enjoy the show 🤞🏻

Wild and revolutionary concept: maybe don't treat converts like trash just because they're converts? And also don't ask someone if they're a convert in a public setting?

Can you talk more about how you decided to convert through conservative judaism over reform and what the process was like for you? I've been going to a reform shul for a while, to the point where I know everyone who regularly comes and I also love our rabbi. It almost feels like a second home, but I realized recently that I think I agree more with Conservative views on halacha and would prefer converting through that stream, but I also don't wanna leave all the nice people I've met so far, and also the nearest conservative shul is over an hour drive away :( I thought I'd just convert through reform anyways but maybe talk about keeping a conservative level of observance for my conversion, but I feel like it would be dishonest to convert reform if I don't agree with their fundamental views on halacha and such. It's hard thinking about leaving the community I love, but I also feel that I'd get more of what I personally want out of Judaism from a conservative conversion. Would really love some advice on navigating this if you're willing!!
I'll preface this by saying that this is included in my FAQ, so if you want to check that out, you might get more information that I might have forgotten to include here.
What I fundamentally believe people should do in the conversion process is to do what is accessible to them. If reform is accessible to you, I don't see why you would have to upend yourself and leave behind your pre-established community.
To me, movement means very little. If you've converted halachically (which reform absolutely can do and does), you've converted. You can be a reform jew who follows or believes in a myriad of things - I doubt a rabbi is going to say, "now, I want to convert you, but you don't believe only in the Reform Positions, so it looks like you can't be converted." If anything, a rabbi would be thrilled to hear what your positions are and why. It reminds me of my ITJ class where the presenting rabbi asked if we believed in g-d or not. She literally balked about how none of us voted "no." She was amazed.
I only decided to convert through the conservative movement because it was the most accessible to me. Nothing about the conversion process changed because I chose conservative - I'm still working with a rabbi, I'm still engaged with my community, and I will stand before a beit din and immerse in the mikvah. If I could let you in on a secret... If movement didn't matter to others, I wouldn't even put which movement I'm affiliated with on this blog.One of the most important things in jewish conversion and jewish life in general is having a community. It sounds like you've found that - it isn't dishonest to be in community and to just be yourself (yes, even if you disagree with some aspects of different practices - two jews, three opinions, anyone?). Plenty of people in my conservative shul are more frum than others, and some are less frum. Even within your own movement, your practices will look wildly different than other jews of the same movement. In actuality, we're all starting from more or less the same starting point which is judaism. You have a lifetime to explore the mitzvot and see how you will practice. Nothing about that is inherently dishonest or disingenuous.

My entire life, I've yearned for the kind of community the Jewish community and Judaism have provided me. I found out I had Jewish ancestry when I was a kid, I looked into it more later and realized my most recent Jewish ancestor (like three-ish generations back) was almost certainly forcibly converted out, and decided to convert to like. Make amends for that I guess and also because I really vibed with the holidays and how we turn up everywhere in history bc we keep doing cool stuff despite consistently shitty circumstances.
But I digress.
I have waited my WHOLE LIFE trying to experience the joy becoming Jewish has shown me, and that gets shit on constantly.
My sister has started making a truly obscene number of Jew jokes. My mom scoffs at all the 'nonsense rules' and has said repeatedly that she thinks choosing a 'restrictive' religion is dumb and I've made a mistake. She even said it's an insult to HER parenting skills that I would seek out religion after she tried to teach me to know better.
My dad is dead but I never ever in a million years would have told him even if he were alive, and my sister thinks it's funny to threaten to 'out' me as Jewish to his relatives even though they're basically KKK-adjacent so she actually enjoys threatening mg safety at this point. (Yay family right?)
My friends have turned everything into an Israel/Palestine discussion lately and I know damn well what they're doing when they start saying truly horrible shit about Israelis and looking at me. They get mad if I try to temper their extremism so I've given up. I barely talk to them anymore and I spend more and more time with other Jews from temple and I don't want to like. Isolate myself from all non-Jews I guess bc I've always felt like that leads to weirdness and perpetuates shit about Jews being unfriendly I guess idk?
Anyway I digress again. My point is I'm really sick of constantly being expected to tolerate it when people think I shouldn't be Jewish.
Other queer people think I'm somehow compromising my queer identity by being Jewish, leftists think I hunt Palestinian children for sport now apparently, right-wingers think I traffic good Christian babies for organ harvesting or some shit idfk, my friends think that if I'm not being more vitriolic in my hatred of Israel than they already are I'm some kind of secret rabid Netanyahu fan, my family think I've been recruited into a cult apparently and the only other people who show me even an ounce of compassion or regard are other Jews and Gd knows there's like ten of us and that number is unlikely to increase.
Just. Fuck. I've put blood, sweat, tears and money into this, I invested more time and emotional commitment into this than I have into going to college or choosing a career, I love it more than anything and have only loved it more the more I learned about it, and all I get when I express this or even just let slip that I am Jewish and chose to be, I get nothing but hatred. I will never understand how a religion that has spent all 5000 years of our existence minding our business and arguing about the same book over and over can possibly have offended this many people with our existence.
Dmn anon, that is a lot you're dealing with right now. I'm so sorry you're surrounded by people who clearly don't respect you. Because yes this is a lack of basic respect, and it is antisemitic. Now I don't know how old you are and how safe you are, but if you can safely do so, set very hard boundaries. Do not tolerate this amount of disrespect towards who you are. It is hard, and many of us have had to go through similar situations, as you can read all over this blog. But I think having to spend your life surrounded by people who make you feel unsafe and disrespected is worse. I know sometimes there are situations in which people cannot safely set these boundaries, I hope it's not your case, but if it is feel free to come here to vent again.
I know you don't want to isolate yourself from goyim. Many Jewish people don't want to. Sadly, when people disrespect us like this, they're the ones isolating us. It's not your fault. Seek people who love and accept you. Sadly, a good chunk of goyim won't - I'm not saying everyone, obviously, but a portion. Having a good Jewish support network seems to be more and more important, whether it's irl or online.
I hope you can soon be in an environment that's safer and more accepting
- 🐺

much to be said about how it’s kind of unfair to try navigating life while Touched, but also i think it’s just a normal facet of life that you can’t always get what you want,, so it’s hard to justify bitching Too much sometimes :/
#N posts stuff#wasn’t joking about bringing back ‘touched in the head’ as terminology btw#was thinking that i’d like to go back to studying to convert#(i spent a little over two years studying judaism and then it triggered a psychotic episode that scared me off studying Any religion/theolog#theology for a While) but then when i was mentally drafting an email to the shul i went to#i realized that i feel comfortable Now but there aren’t really any like. supports to keep the same thing from happening again#and there’s a real chance that once it’s time to go back to studying the high holidays again the Exact same thing will happen#so i was trying to figure out what Could maybe be done. and i think working one-on-one with someone would help#but. Problem. : it’s a lot to ask of someone no matter how you look at it. and it’s likely that any guy running the intro classes at this#shul don’t have any kind of mental health background so that’s even More to ask of someone (its a Really small synagogue)#BUT on the other paw any kind of therapist i could find that is Jewish likely doesn’t necessarily have the capacity to run an intro class#in lieu of a typical session. arguably i could try to balance both a typical class and one-on-one therapy but i have a sneaking suspicion th#that bringing psychotic symptoms into a therapists office will lead them to encourage medication which i have NO desire to be on#and also i generally don’t really have the capacity to balance full time job on top of classes on top of regular services on top of therapy#so it’s like. well. maybe you just don’t get to do that then. it’s a little unfortunate :/#but also hey. maybe one day i’ll move again and ill wind up somewhere that’s actually perfectly equipped to help me one day who’s to say

A PSA for the girls
If you are looking to wear a skirt when it's cold out and want tights to go underneath it, buy yourself (if you can afford it) a pair of dance wear tights. Seriously, wearing dance tights has ruined me for any other kind! They are heavier than most generic ones, meaning that they hardly ever get runs, they are much more comfortable, they fit well, and most importantly, they are DESIGNED TO ACTUALLY BE WORN AND MOVED AROUND IN!! I tried a pair of regular tights the other day for the first time in about five years, and I made it about five minutes before I had to switch them. They are just inferior in every way!

i just need to make it to shabbat i just need to make it to shabbat i just need
#😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫#short response due tmrw ; seminar presentation potentially tmrw WHICH I ONLY JUST REMEMBERED ; short seminar quiz to do before friday ;#latin club “homework” which im probably gonna tell my friend i cant continue w bc my weekly workload is already too overwhelming w 3 courses#+ i have to have by thrice yearly lunch w my evangelical godmother which means 3 hour convo half dedicated to getting me to abandon judaism#and half to getting me to repent my sinful homosexual ways and go back to being a nice straight girl#all of which is going to happen in public and she WILL tear up at multiple points of the conversation and it WILL be supremely awkward#when people inevitably start eavesdropping bc let's be real if i were at a cafe overhearing this convo i would be listening in too#and everyone's like 'ugh why dont you just tell her to fuck off' but im the only trans person and the only observant jew she has ever met#two groups against which she already has so many preconceived notions so like. idk it feels like my responsibility#as someone who knows her and who she acc cares about (vs a stranger) to try and give her a different perspective on these things ???#like if me being patient and calmly explaining why i transitioned/why i converted can stop her even slightly from sliding even further right#(and like she's Right Wing like covid denial right wing)#and if it might mean the next trans person or whtvr that she interacts with has it slightly easier then like. sure j can sit through#a couple irritating hours every few months#but its just suuuch a shit time for it like im meeting her thursday after class when i have a massive fucking assignment to hand in on sat#which FUCK gotta add that to the list#☞ annotated bibliography due saturday aka friday bc shabbos#okay okay. im done losing my mind in the notes 😵‍💫👍🏻#p.s.

already thinking "and by 'religious' really i mean 'christian'" re: how the term "religion" is not really useful when it's largely like, from a christian perspective, what is considered "equivalent" of christianity, see: perhaps a "rival"/obstacle to some person or group being considered christian....and even if not thinking about converting anyone, resulting in some at best misinterpretation / misrepresentation based on framing it through/as [element of christianity] and limiting of any more accurate language
like how tumblr recommends me a post about someone thinking about "religion" in general and concluding that it's Weird and perhaps Wrong for anyone who is a "true believer" in their religion(tm) to Not be proselytizing / trying to Convert everyone. like yeah why isn't everyone being an evangelical christian, they ought to be, benevolently informing all those around them that they're going to hell, otherwise. don't see any problem with this conclusion, or that someone's getting antisemitic in the notes already in agreement, or that That's Not How This Works and you don't just know how All "Religion" works based on considering it to be an alternate version of christianity (which in itself doesn't All work like that either)
#and even when it comes to having a Critical View of any belief system / way of living / spirituality it's like...people are on that already#without having to see it from a christian perspective or understand the only possible framework for it as [critiques of christianity]....#a dogmatic approach / doctrine of Salvation....not how it all works out there re: ways anyone can be anything besides christian#So Bizarre why everybody's not all trying to ''convert'' everyone else in the world....is it.#what; like; ''you'd think everyone would be launching an inquisition'' like would you.#even if you know fuckall abt non christian beliefs / perspectives / traditions/practices / identities / ways of life etc....#we could maybe go ahead and question this conclusion. or perhaps go ''but also i know fuckall about all that so why am i theorizing'' like.#and again there are non ''western'' christian traditions....and of course individuals and philosophies within christianity who would also#not think you can only Truly be christian by going ''and i'd better be trying to convert everyone. or i'm being a jerk'' too#not actually the case that everyone thinks everyone else who doesn't share some ''religious'' factor is Damned To Hell or an equivalent....#anyways telling tumblr actually this particular post? isn't for me. and i don't thank you#another tiresome factor of [mass at the benedictine monastery] like the homilies/sermons were especially exhausting#they always were but like ''what are you even talking about'' as one priest goes on about how it's silly for people to say they're#Spiritual but not Religious b/c the only way to be spiritual is to be christian lite & if you're Genuinely even christian lite then you#ought to realize you should go full throttle christian. like a) No b) why are we preaching to the choir here. we're all at Sunday Mass???#not like any sermons ever feel that thoughtful when like too much analysis is like uh oh? a bit heretical are we??? which is not universal.#gee thanks for this [are we just supposed to all sit here feeling validated in our superiority; or...?] experience#wisdom you couldn't totally get from someone going on some self-assured monologue abt heathens these days over dinner or sm shit#really makes you think. and then someone will be really thinking & going ''shouldn't everyone w/a Religion be an Evangelist'' hmm: No.#and they aren't ''wrong'' about their own beliefs approaches perspectives identities traditions etc for it either. Done#anyways changed ''religious parent'' to ''christian parent'' for its own enhanced accuracy & precision alike....

And always remember that if you're not up to writing a whole thing, just leaving a comment of "AAAAAAHHHHHH I LOVE THIS 😍😍😍😍😍" (or something else very simple but nice) will still almost certainly make the author's day and let them know they did a great job!
(Also acceptable is leaving a short positive message, and then later leaving another longer positive message if you're able to and you feel like it. No one will notice if you don't, but if there is a fic author who would be unhappy with two positive comments instead of one, I have not met them.)
Still obsessed with Arthur Conan Doyle’s letter to Bram Stoker gushing about how wonderful a book Dracula is, but particularly how it makes such a good template for leaving fic comments, so I’m gonna to a BREAKDOWN:
Just say you loved reading it - “I am sure that you will not think it an impertinence if I write to tell you how very much I have enjoyed reading Dracula.”
Comment on a detail of the craft or structure that impressed you - “It is really wonderful how with so much exciting interest over so long a book there is never an anticlimax.“
Comment on how it emotionally affected you - “It holds you from the very start and grows more and more engrossing until it is quite painfully vivid.”
SHARE YOUR BLORBO FEELINGS - “The old Professor is most excellent and so are the two girls.”
Show appreciation for them as an author - “I congratulate you with all my heart for having written so fine a book.”
Next time you don’t know what to say on a fic you enjoyed, just use the ACD method~
