My Brilliant Friend | 3x05 // 4x07

[acourtofthought]

I woke up this morning to more hate anons and a few reassuring messages (thank you so much for those ❤️) but I'm not going to be responding to any more about this topic.

I have two younger children with a lot of energy, a needy energetic dog who is always stealing stuff and making you chase him, I'm taking one of my best friends out to brunch this morning to celebrate her birthday and I currently feel like shit because I could not sleep last night. My body was humming with anxiety and I woke up in a panic every hour after finally falling asleep after two hours of listening to sleep meditation videos. Rinse and repeat from 11 pm to 7 am.

Yes, to those who continue throwing this in my face, I do defend Elain's character on some anti takes who constantly use the Elucien and Elain tags. When doing so, you are forcing Elain stans to witness your hatred of her, you are filling their feed with negativity and you should then not be surprised if people decide to comment. But you're also kidding yourself if you think I am constantly bombarding others because responding to the Anti Elain takes would tie up Eluciens for the entirety of their day. Clearly, you have absolutely no room to talk when you couldn't even handle someone having a headcanon that put Elain's story before Gwyn's on the timeline all while only using Elain, Lucien, and Elucien tags. It wasn't even Gwyn slander, it was literally "I know Gwyn is going to be an important part of the IC / Nyx someday as Az's mate but I'd really like to see Elain interacting with them from her POV first". Apparently, THAT was the cause for the downfall of the Elucien / Gwynriel friendship. Apparently THAT was the reason for the discord between us. It couldn't possibly have been all the hate some Gwynriels have for Elain or the statements that "Az's book is definitely next and Eluciens are just going to have to accept it" or "Gwyn will get a Pegasus from Helion first." or "We'll learn about Az and Gwyn's heritage before Lucien discovers his". If you're allowed to have those headcanons then why can't we have ours? And if the only way for Eluciens and Gwynriels to be friends is for us to put Az and Gwyn first at all times, to not try to point out why Elucien might be set up more than Gwynriel (just like you do for Gwynriel over Elucien / Elriel) while acknowledging that we could still be wrong then I guess we can't be friends. Disagreeing is not a crime. Putting our OTP first is not a crime. Saying "I think our pairing is ready first" is not a crime, especially when most of it is in response to the takes we're regularly forced to bear witness to. It's not antagonistic either. You know what is antagonistic? Saying "Az's book is definitely next and Eluciens are just going to have to wait longer". Saying "anyone who thinks Elain's book is next is delusional". Saying, "Elain is so boring and underdeveloped and that's our right to think so but you're a bad friend if you have anything negative to say about Az or Gwyn's character." "Elain is boring but Gwyn does not need more development, they're so wrong for saying that". Saying "we can have our headcanons but if you have yours then you're creating discord." Saying "Elucien's should be happy if Gwynriel is next because they still win, it still confirms their ship". Sending hate anons, gaslighting and spreading lies is the exact same bully behavior you claim to hate about E/riels yet some are turning around and doing it to "mutuals".

I'm an Elucien blog first and foremost. I love both Elain and Lucien. I see the potential of Gwynriel but am allowed to be a little salty at Az for the way he acts towards Lucien. I am allowed to want to see more for Gwyn's character outside of just being Nesta's best friend before feeling like I truly know all her layers. Saying that does not mean I hate her or am slandering her. Elain has been around since book 1, Gwyn was only around for SF, it is not abnormal for someone to feel more drawn to a character who they've been reading about for multiple books. I have many mutuals who comment under my posts and say "I see things differently" and we have healthy exchanges even with a difference of opinions, clearly I don't need every single person to agree with me. If you can't handle that and instead need to resort to telling lies about my posts and sending hate anons than you are the problem, you are the bully.

Wanting to claim Elucien's as friends just so you feel you have a bigger army against elriels while shitting on Elain then expecting us to show nothing but respect for your favorites? That's not a friendship we need.

Does being a multishipper mean I have to like every ship for every character?

Like, I love almost all the the Marauder's ships, but like...

I just can't imagine Remus without Sirius. I was scrolling through the moonwater tag earlier and I can lowkey see it, but it just didn't hit me the same way, and I feel guilty for not being able/wanting to imagine or write it.

No, I don't think you have to like EVERY ship! I think it just means enjoying multiple pairings that contradict, if that makes sense? Like enjoying both Bartylus and Rosekiller (liking Barty with two different people) or Jegulus and Jily and Jarty and Prongsfoot (James with four different people) for example.

I'm not really a multishipper...like I'm here to hype up any ship you want me to because I don't believe in shaming people for who they ship...but I have my OTPs and I usually stick to them. I think whatever you like is valid, as long as you don't shame others for it!

[hannibalbabygirlifier]

Getting to know mutuals!

Thanks @emthought for the tag yay I get to be chatty!

What’s the origin of your blog title?

Honestly I didn’t even have one for ages and then I saw a will graham meme with it and I was like damn girl you and me both. Sure, this represents me.

Otp (s) + shipname (s):

I literally have soooo many but recently most focused on radarhawk (mash-quelle suprise there) and hannigram because it’s 2015 again. BUT some of my other OGs that i return to over and over again for years are iorveth/Roche (Witcher) maxAnne and charles/Jack (black sails-ranger crew my belovedddddd) tommy/Alfie (peaky blinders) charmac (iasip) Thomas/jimmy (downton abbey) god the list just goes on… I think the OLDEST that I’ve been invested in over a decade are hannigram and iorveth/Roche though.

Favourite colour:

Toss up between pink and green depending on the day!

Song stuck in your head:

Lonesome love mistski for niche blorbo reasons- the person responsible knows who they are!!!

Weirdest habit/trait:

I will eat things by hand you didn’t know a person could… I have weird sensory stuff about cutlery esp metal forks so I just. Avoid them lol.

Hobbies:

Painting, singing badly, getting really into movies, cooking, I don’t know if it counts but I do have fun doing theatrical makeup and such.

If you work, what’s your profession?:

Hairstylist! Though I do 70% men’s cuts so I’m not sure if barber is more accurate…wotever

If you could have any job you wish, what would it be?

I was really interested in marine biology! I really love fish and aquatic stuff. I also was interested at one point in working with snakes and other reptiles but that is a significant amount of education for the fact that there is extremely little employment there soooo… but a fun idea!

Something you’re good at:

I’m really good at small talk and first impressions/interviews to a degree people have described as somewhat freaky-unfortunately this means I set a really high expectation that I can’t necessarily live up to. My fiancées old roommate has joked that after a month of knowing me he started to be like “ohhhh you are human after all! Okay cool!”. I just have really good scripts for certain interactions lol.

Something you hate:

Things not going to plan/last minute changes. Also bell peppers and matcha.

Something you collect:

Anything mouse themed! Also trinkets in general, little figurines, royal doulton China, perfume, I’m a magpie with pretty things. Oh hello kitty things too! If hello kitty has 1000 fans I am one if hello kitty has 1 fan I am that fan etc…

Something you forget:

Where I left my phone when I had it a minute ago and I haven’t left the house.

What’s your love language?:

It’s hard to say because of course they all play in but probably words of affirmation? I’m someone that needs a LOT of reassurance so it helps a lot with feeling loved, and I tend to be fairly heart on my sleeve about communicating it back. I think gifts is a big one for me too just because I’ve grown up being shown love through that rather than being told outright so it’s my learned way of recognizing/showing love-not so much fancy gifts as much as getting my fiancée nice coffee beans while I’m out or them bringing me home knickknacks from work, it’s just that you thought of them and wanted to brighten their day.

Favourite movie/show:

I have a lot but moonrise kingdom and aliens are probably my top favourite movies of all time, and my top shows are mash and iasip for comedies and hannibal and black sails for serious shows. Oh I also love over the garden wall ! Whatever that counts as!

Favourite food:

Anything lobster or homemade French onion soup if I’m being bougie, grilled cheese if we’re going comfort food.

Favourite animal:

So many but if I have to pick I will say. The humble mouse.

What were you like as a child:

Really quite strange if we’re being honest. I dressed in historical clothing and was really into the historical reenactment museum near me. Read quite a lot too! Much more than I do now. Generally had a lot of playing pretend and elaborate fantasy worlds and mythologies. I was obsessed with Japan and Egypt for a stretch as most children are, had a hamster named hamtaro, and had the devastating experience of trying sushi and not liking it. Funnily enough I love it now! But it was a big disappointment at the time. Oh I also was in a pretty formal children’s choir so that was a big chunk of my time.

Favourite subject at school:

Depended on the teacher! Probably English though-I would have liked art but I was locked in a four year conflict with my art teacher. I’m sure he hasn’t forgotten me.

Least favourite subject:

Gym. Wretched class.

What’s your best character trait?:

I think I’m relatively high in terms of empathy so I try to go out of my way for people if it’ll improve their day or make a big difference for them, or extend patience when people are difficult or unkind- it’s funny how if you go out of your way to be kind when someone is clearly picking a fight often they come back later to apologize and open up about something going on in their personal life and it really turned their day around that you helped them as much as you did, and that means a lot sometimes.

What’s your worst character trait?:

I’m one of the most sensitive people you’ll ever meet which is hard because I get so easily upset at everything. I think it would be a lot easier for me if I had a thicker skin but we are who we are so we make the best of it.

If you could change any detail of your life right now, what would it be?:

Honestly having a lot of money would solve like most possible problems lol

If you could travel in time, who would you like to meet?

On a personal close to me level, my grandfather on my fathers side just because I never met him but everything I learn about him is crazy. Genuinely fascinating life. Bigger historical figure, any of the Romanov children because I have weird historical fixations. And I do have questions about Rasputin.

Tagging:

@3asystreets but also anyone else who would like to!

TIANA

I'd been feeling ill for the last two weeks and had no idea what was going on, so I headed to the shop to purchase a pregnancy test. When I got home from the store, I walked into the bathroom and opened the box while pulling out two of the pregnancy tests. I peed on both sticks while flushing the toilet, nervously walking back and forth, chewing my fingernails. When I flipped them over, I was taken aback since both of them said nice things. I could not believe I was pregnant.

I grabbed my phone and texted Trinity, Bianca, and Emma because we were all in a group chat together.

IMESSAGE GC 💬 Tiana: guys...I have some news... Breezy: bestie what happened?? Trin🤭🫶🏽: yeah, what happened T? Em♥️: what's wrong?

Breezy: BITCH YOURE PREGNANT?????? Trin🤭🫶🏽: TIANA ARE YOU DEADASS RN JOSH GOT YOU KNOCKED UP?

Tiana: thank you I'll ttly

I emerged from the restroom with both pregnancy tests in my hand, still stunned that I was carrying this man's baby. I placed both of them inside my drawer and concealed them behind my clothing as I approached the mirror on my wall.

Lifting up my shirt and massaging my tummy, I imagined myself becoming a fine-ass mom. As I was rubbing my belly, I heard my phone ring and halted my motions to retrieve it off the dresser.

It was Jey calling me. God, I hope the girls didn't tell him; that would just ruin the surprise.

OTP ZaddyJey🤍: hey mamas what you doing? Mamas🩷: I'm at home alone right now chilling since I've haven't been feeling good lately and my hormones has been making me feel emotional too. ZaddyJey🤍: you want me to come over later?

Mamas🩷: yayyy my hubby is spending the nighhht ZaddyJey🤍: you're so goofy baby ight then mama I'll see you later I love you Mamas🩷: I love you tooo

CALL ENDED

I laid down on my bed and instructed Alexia to crank up the chilly air. I curled up under my nice blanket, grabbed the remote, and turned on Baddies Caribbean, my favorite program.

While watching my TV, I became tired for a second. I attempted to open my eyes, but it didn't work, so I fell asleep, allowing my show to play itself.

✧.*

I awoke to my phone buzzing. As I managed to open my eyes, I noticed Jey beckoning me. I sat up and peered out the window, noticing his car in my driveway. I dashed downstairs, opened the door, and discovered him waiting there with food in his hand.

"Damn girl, you didn't hear me calling you?" He questioned me while I scratched the crust out of my eyes. "I'm so sorry, Bubba. I was in a deep slumber and had forgotten you were even coming," I said.

"It's alright, Mama. Please let me know next time. C'mon, so we can eat because I know you haven't eaten yet." I nodded affirmatively as I let him inside the home and slammed the door behind him.

He set the food and beverages on the table in the living room. This man bought some Waffle House for dinner since he adored the establishment.

He bought me a grilled chicken sandwich with fries and a lemonade, and he grabbed himself a BLT. I grabbed the remote from the table and turned on Twilight, as it was the time of year when the leaves dropped.

I hope I don't throw up the food he brought for us to eat since I've been feeling terrible all day and haven't eaten anything. While watching the movie, I felt my mouth turn sour, so I jumped up from the couch and hurried to the toilet, vomiting up.

'Goddamnit, this is getting ridiculous.'

I heard Jey's footsteps enter the bathroom as he pulled my hair up and patted my back while I vomited.

After throwing up, I flushed the toilet, wiped my face with a towel, and looked at Jey. I could interpret his facial expression; he appeared worried and perplexed.

"You good mama?" Jey asked.

"Y-yeah, I just need some water to help with all of this." I said, knowing damn well that my pregnancy is causing all of this.

"I'll go grab it for you. Why don't you go lie down on the couch? I'll come meet you." I did what I was told to do, lying down on the couch and rubbing my tummy.

'Hopefully, after this, I could surprise him with the pregnancy test.'

I saw Jey walking towards me with a cold water bottle in his hand. As he gave it to me, I grabbed it from his hand, opened it up, and drank it.

After drinking the water, I placed my head on Jey's lap, continuing to watch Twilight and feeling him play with my hair.

His touch felt calming and comfortable. I looked up at him while his eyes were fixed on the movie, but he could see I was admiring him.

He looked down at me with deep, hooded eyes, seized my chin, and pressed his soft lips against mine, kissing me a few times in the process.

He backed away as he grinned at me. God, he was so beautiful it wasn't funny. I sat straight on his lap, straddling him as I felt him grab my hips.

"I have a surprise for you that you might like," I added, toying with his mullet.

He arched an eyebrow at me, "What kind of surprise?" I chucked at him before jumping off his lap and rushing upstairs to my room. I proceeded to the drawer, grabbed both pregnancy tests, and tucked them behind my back as I headed downstairs. He was sitting there on his phone, waiting for me to reveal his surprise.

When I walked in front of him, his gaze fixed on me. I told him to close his eyes while pulling his hand out and placing both of the pregnancy tests in his hand.

He opened his eyes, seeing them both in his hand. As I watched, his face went into complete shock. He looked up at me, then back down at the tests.

"Tiana, don't play with me right now. Are you actually pregnant?" Jey questioned me.

"Yes, Josh, I'm really pregnant." I said.

"This gotta be a prank. Tink, yo' ass must be pranking me." I shook my head while coming towards him to sit on his lap, playing with his mullet, saying, "It's not a prank, baby. I'm serious."

He scooped me up by the thighs, giving me a few kisses on the lips while spinning me around in the process, causing me to feel dizzy.

Jey smiled at me happily. We are actually going' to become parents like actual parents.

"I am so happy, baby; I'm going to be a father, " he said softly, with excitement in his voice.

"Me too, Josh. I can't believe this is happening," I said before yawning.

Jey took note of this as he grabbed the remote control and turned off the TV before taking his phone and pregnancy tests as he carried me upstairs to my room.

He shut the door behind him with his foot and placed me on my lovely covers while I watched him remove his clothing. His toned skin, strong frame, and gorgeous Samoan tattoos were so exquisite that I couldn't help but approach up to him and stand in front of him as he seized me with his gaze.

Feeling all over his chest and face, he had such beautiful features I couldn't keep my hands to myself as I felt his hand around my waist.

"What's up, mamas?" he said as his gaze shifted to mine. I looked up at him with innocent eyes and placed my lips on his neck, kissing it wetly. I felt his hands slither down to my ass, gripping it tightly as I proceeded to give him wet kisses on his neck, marking him up in the process.

He grabbed my thighs and went backward towards the bed, where he sat down with me, straddling his lap.

He grabbed me forcefully by the throat, stopping me in my tracks. "you know you drive me crazy tink?" He spoke with a heavy tone of voice.

"I know I do so how about you let me take control of the situation and you." I replied with a smile.

I moved off his lap as he shuffled back towards the headboard, slipping his sweatpants and PSD boxers off. Seeing his long and curved dick rise up and strike his stomach.

My mouth watered at the sight of it, and his black stare was fixed on me and my motions as I slid my hair to the side.

SMUT WARNING

I started stroking his dick up and down, seeing the pre-cum pouring out of it and watching him relax via my touch.

I kissed his gorgeous mushroom tip, teasing him slightly as I heard his breathing tremble; he never allowed me to do this to him; generally, he would take charge of the situation or demonstrate his power.

"B-baby, stop teasing me, girl.." he rasped as I chuckled at him before going down on him.

I swirled my tongue around his tip, going all the way down until his tip was hitting the back of my throat.

I bopped my head up and down on his dick, hearing his sweet moans escaping from his lips, gazing up at him. He had his head thrown back on the headboard, clenching his legs in the process.

He opened his eyes, staring deeply into my soul as I continued to suck the soul out of him. Feeling his hand caressing my face.

"Fuckkk, baby, just like that, keep goin'." I loved the way he was sounding right now; it was turning me on even more.

"Mhmm, keep talking to me, love," I mutter softly while continuing to circle my tongue around the tip.

I felt him move his hips, pushing his dick deeper inside of my mouth, grabbing a whole load of my hair, and began to face fuck me. I maintained my breathing as I let him face fuck me hearing his heavy breathing.

"Shit, mama, your mouth feels so good wrapped around my dick, letting me fuck this pretty face of yours." Jey grunted as he continued to thrust his hips.

All you could hear were wet noises coming from my lips as all of my saliva was dripping down all over his dick and my hands.

He abused my throat every chance he got while my eyes fluttered and my throat spasmed. With every single thrust he would just go deeper and deeper I started to form tears into my eyes.

"Ouuu fuck mami...taking me so well...make me nut mama..." his breathing became more shaky and heavy, knowing that he was almost close to his climax.

Feeling his dick twitching inside of my mouth along with his legs twitching too, as his tip was deep inside of my throat.

Rolling his eyes in the back of his head, thrusting his hips in the process, I used both of my hands, stroking him up and down while he did that, driving him insane.

After abusing my throat some more, I heard a loud groan escaping from his lips while his warm seeds spilled down my throat, eating that shit up.

I felt him shaking violently, seeing him pull out his dick away from my mouth, hearing that pop as my face felt flushed, seeing his chest heaving up and down.

I stick my tongue out at him, showing him that I swallow all of his nut, smiling at him as he chuckles at me, trying to catch his breath.

"Yo' ass is nasty baby but c'mere and ride this dick tho mama." Jey said while curling up his fingers.

I did what I was told to do, removing my booty shorts along with my cheeky panties and crawling towards his way before climbing on top of him.

I grabbed his dick rubbing his tip on my now wet folds before sticking it in, I sat down on it as a gasp escaped my lips feeling his hands on my hips as I began to ride him cowgirl style.

I was bouncing up and down on his dick as he was guiding me with my hips we maintained eye contact with each other while he racked his hand onto my ass cheeks as I whined.

"Fuck daddy, this dick feels so good..." I moaned, holding onto his shoulders.

"Yeah? Keep ridin' yo' dick, mama. This is all yours, baby." He replied in a raspy tone.

I had my eyes rolling in the back of my head while throwing my head back in the process as he continued to give my ass a few smacks.

He grabbed me up by the throat, placing his soft lips on mine, slipping his tongue in the process as we tongue kissed each other.

He guided my hips up and down his dick as my walls were clenching around him, causing him to groan between the kiss. Removing his lips from mine, replacing them with my neck, marking me up just like how I did him.

"You're so fucking pretty, you that mama?" He whispered softly in my ear.

"Uhn Huh, daddy fuck..."

I circled my hips on his dick, feeling myself breaking underneath him every single time, spelling my name on his dick.

His tip was hitting my spot as I continued to circle my hips like crazy, causing him to throw his head back in pleasure.

"Keep goin' fo' me baby fuck...this my shit?"

"Yess daddy this is all yours I'm yours forever baby.."

"Damn, right, ma yo' ass better know you belong to." I felt a pit go down my stomach as my facial expressions turned up, which caught his attention, knowing that I was going to cum all over him.

He got some control, firmly grabbing my hips and pushing his hips to meet my motions. Skins were clapping against each other as I screamed his name across the entire bedroom.

He was beating my shit up while I placed my face into his neck, moaning in his ear.

"Mhm, take this dick like a big girl. This shit is making you go stupid." Jey grunted as he continued to hammer into my gummy walls.

I love it when he talks nasty to me; it makes me want to smear his dick with my essence. I clutched his shoulders hard, knowing that I was getting near to my climax. I let out a loud groan as my body began to tremble beneath him, covering his dick with my cream. I wanted to get off of him right now, but he gripped my waist tightly, his powerful arms hammering into my wet creamy cunt deeply.

"Fuck, fuck, fuck Josh please...I can't take it..." I mewled weakly.

"Nah baby take this fucking dick and be a good girl fo' me baby." I did what I was told to do as I let him continue to beat my pussy in.

He was giving me these harsh strokes, kissing me all over my neck while I held his shoulders for dear life, sensing another orgasm approaching. I felt his dick quiver inside of me, knowing he was about to cum in my shit.

I was so overwhelmed that tears welled up in my eyes as I swallowed my saliva and threw my head back. I couldn't even fathom what was going on. 

Making me feel as if my brain needed to be rebooted, he shoved his hips farther into my gushy insides, causing me to gasp loudly as he smirked. Seeing how I trembled beneath his touch.

"Fuck baby, I'm finna nut all in yo' shit stuffing yo' ass like a turkey." After a few more thrusts, he and I came together as a groan escaped from our lips.

I felt his warm seeds inside of me filling me up well as he and I were panting heavily. He pulled his dick out from me, and his seeds were dripping out from my pussy and onto his stomach.

SMUT OVER.

We didn't move an inch from each other as I laid on his chest hearing his breathing going steady while his hands were still wrapped around my waist hugging me.

His lips gently kissed me on the neck and chest before we could finally pull away from each other. We looked into each other's eyes, smiling at each other, and I saw sweat dripping down his body.

"Damn that shit felt so good mama." Jey said.

"Y-yeah it did..ion' think I can move my body at the moment." I replied earning a chuckle from him.

"I can tell c'mon I'll carry you into the bathroom so we can take a bath together ight?" He scooped me up by my legs carrying me inside my bathroom placing me on top of the sink.

Turning on the faucet, he checked the temperature of the bath water, making sure that it wasn't hot or anything.

✧.* After we took a bath together, I was cuddled up on his chest, hearing his heartbeat while he was on his phone, scrolling through his social media.

Meanwhile, I was watching my show, gasping as I watched the girls fight each other, taking each other's wigs off while knocking their heads in.

"Why do you even watch this shit Tiana?" Jey questioned me, and I rolled my eyes at him.

"Because bae it's interesting to me and funny don't be hater now." I said sarcastically.

"Mane, I ain't no hater. I'm just saying," he earned a hum from me as my eyes were focused on the show.

I felt his hand on my tummy, pulling me closer to him as he began to rub it before placing a soft kiss on my neck.

I turned my head to look at his features, and he was already admiring me. I kissed him on the lips as he responded.

"I'm so nervous love." I said.

"Why mama?"

"Because what if I'm not a good mom to our little one?" He raised his eyebrow, looking at me.

"Baby, I think you'll be a great mother. Don't doubt yourself, okay? I'll be right there with you," Jey said as he reassured me.

I gave him one last kiss before turning off the TV and getting comfortable in the bed. He wrapped his arms around my waist, whispering in my ear.

"I love you mama"

"I love you too papa."

Under Your Touch.

[wyllzel]

get to know your tumblr mutuals tag!

i was tagged by @nfly5, thank you laura!! :))

1. what's the origin of your username?

i think wyll ravengard of bg3 fame and lae'zel also of bg3 fame should kiss and fall in love and ride dragons into the sunset (or, rather, the astral plane) together :)

2. otps + shipname

wyllzel 🥰 and vivwall (vivienne x blackwall dai) at the moment for sure!

i'm trying to think of more, but honestly i'm p easygoing when it comes to ships haha i'll take a peek at almost anything that seems compelling 🫣

3. song stuck in my head

"purple lace bra" by tate mcrae for uhhh no reason 🤫 and "feel it" by d4vd for also no reason LOL (🎶 you told me once that i was crazy i said babygirl i knooooowww but i can't let you gooo (away!) 🎶)

4. weirdest trait/habit

i have a growing aversion to cold drinks lol it's starting to feel odd drinking something that isn't hot... that's not that weird though, i think i'm just becoming a grandma LOL

5. hobbies

photoshop!! i like making gifs and edits and such :) i've also been writing a lot more recently which is crazy, i haven't felt this inspired or productive in forever :'D thank you DA lol 🩷

i am also v much a webtoon enjoyer (my all-time fave is "trash belongs in the trash can!" but i'm currently v invested in "nevermore," "i'm the queen in this life," "sisters at war," and "momfluencer"!), but i'll read manga (tatsuki fujimoto my GOAT) and comics (invincible also my GOAT)

6. if you work, what's your profession?

i write internal software documentation which means it's architectural, high-level design stuff... not so much code-specific, but the reasoning behind why software components are organized the way they are. it's not very fun, mostly mind-melting... i work closely w engineers and it's kind of a toss-up whether they'll be nice/patient or think i'm stupid lol

but my brain now contains so many company secrets :^) if you ever have any questions about data storage/virtualization i can possibly help lol

7. if you could have any job you wish, what would you have?

funny story—i applied for grad school, and i've been accepted to an english m.a. program that starts this fall!!! 🥹 we'll see where i go w that, but i'll likely enter education!

8. something you're good at?

uhh i suppose BG3 LOL i beat honor mode twice! 🎉 (i'm still trying to figure out how DA works 🤔 DA2 hard mode is chill idk if i'd ever do nightmare tho 😬)

9. something you hate?

ok it's not rly a "hate" thing but it does irk me when i see fandom claims/arguments that don't cite specific quotes/screenshots/instances lol (the english major in me activates and i am consumed by the thought "🚨‼️ where do you see this in the text 👁️👁️🫵" LOL)

10. something you forget?

the grief 😂🖐️ it creeps up on me! almost cried in my cubicle multiple times this week. haha.

11. your love language?

receiving is probably words of affirmation? giving is probably gifts, i like making silly things for my bestie (eg. fenris keychain lol) and finding weird stickers for my brother 🤡

12. favorite movies/shows?

my letterboxd top 4 are:

everything everywhere all at once (2022) (saw it twice in theaters and sobbed thru both times)

nope (2022) (BRILLIANT movie, so smart)

challengers (2024) (so fascinating!)

lust, caution (2007) (i need to rewatch this one expeditiously)

as for shows, i love succession (2018-23), invincible (2021-), and the twilight zone (1959-64)!

13. what were you like as a child?

apparently very friendly, outgoing, and extroverted! i would just run up to my fellow kids and yap at them?! i do nooot do that anymore lol

14. favorite subject in school?

english/literature!!

15. least favorite subject?

oh man, i was so bad at science, especially biology/chemistry... i could scrape by in physics bc i was decent at math, but it was still awful...

16. what's your best/worst character trait?

worst...??? according to my last annual review, i need to be more confident in the workplace LOL 💀 + sometimes i let my anxiety get the better of me... i think that's just a lifelong struggle thing though, but i know i can improve to be a better friend and such 💪

best... multiple reviews from mom-aged women say that i am a "nice" and "sweet" person so hopefully at least that means i can leave a good first impression haha

17. if you could change any detail of your life right now, what would it be?

i'm not a huge fan of what-if-ing personally, but i do wish i were on vacation 😆

18. if you could travel in time, who would you like to meet?

i'm currently very curious about my paternal grandparents... it's hard for me to conceptualize why they got married... and how my dad grew up... i guess i would want to witness some of that??

[tulinokkaelain]

GET TO KNOW YOUR MUTUALS

Tagged by: Thank you @desertfangs for tagging me! ❤️

What’s the origin of your username?: I have no reason for it, really. Other than that  I wanted to pick a Finnish username and thought this was funny. It’s just a platypus pun! 😆 Platypus in Finnish is “vesinokkaeläin”, which translates to “water beak animal”. I changed the first word to “tuli” so it now means “fire beak animal”.  :DD

OTP(s) + ship name:  Oh no…I love many ships and don’t really dislike any, so.

Marius ships?? Marius/Daniel, Marius/Armand, Marius/Lestat, Marius/Armand/Daniel, Marius/Armand/Lestat. Also...Armand/Daniel, Lestat/David, Lestat/David/Louis, uhhhh of course Lestat/Louis and Lestat/Armand, Armand/Louis, Lestat/Louis/Armand…..hmm Jesse/Mael, Mael/Marius….etc.

I almost never use the ship names, who knows what they all are! xD

Favorite color: Red & dark green

Song stuck in your head: Miina by Vilma Jää (I’ve really been loving her lately, it’s Finnish ethno pop)

Weirdest habit/trait: Hmm, I don’t know, having little dance parties by myself in elevators? But how am I to know if other people also do this? 😆

Hobbies: Tabletop role-playing games, board games, video games, reading, and hey, I’ve been drawing for almost six months now! Having a hobby where I get to create something has definitely been so good for me! 

If you work, what’s your profession?: University administration. Doesn’t have anything to do with my degree but I don’t want to search for new jobs right now…

If you could have any job you wish, what would it be?:  When I was a child I wanted to be a person whose job would be only to pet animals all day. I think I’d still like that.

Something you’re good at: Hmm, at least I’m NOT good at thinking of anything when someone asks. 😂 I’m an ok baker!

Something you hate: AI art… 

Something you collect: Books, dice, Moomin mugs (I didn’t buy a single one myself, they just are a very common gift lol)

Something you forget: Always forget my food or drinks in my friend’s fridges.

What’s your love language?: I’m not very familiar with this theory…how would I choose just one. So I won't!

Favorite movie/show:  I’m bad at picking favorites…Most recently I’ve been watching Severance & Twin Peaks, and I’m loving them! Hmm, I also like Fargo, Black Sails, Hannibal, Community, Over the Garden Wall, True Detective, Arcane, Haunting of the Hill House, Midnight Mass & Dropout shows like Game Changer. Some anime, and other things I’m 100% certainly forgetting now!! 

I don’t know about a fave movie either…I like The Lord of the Rings movies, Robert Egger’s movies, Ghibli animation, Interstellar, Hereditary,  Star Wars, Alien, Labyrinth….many other things…xD

Favorite food: Let’s say avocado pasta or grilled mushrooms stuffed with cheese

Favorite animal: Seals! And puffins!

What were you like as a child?: I think I was a pretty outgoing kid that got along well with everybody, but then I got social anxiety :D

Favorite subject at school: Psychology, literature, English as a foreign language

Least favorite subject: Physics and chemistry

What’s your best character trait?: I can be depended on to help & really like helping people! Let me carry your stuff when you’re moving, I demand it!!! 😂

What’s your worst character trait?: Procrastination….nowadays it’s just hard for me to do anything unless I have a deadline set by someone else. Bottling my feelings and worries instead of expressing them, even when I know it would be better for me to talk about them.

If you could travel in time, who would you like to meet: Because of social anxiety, it would be a horror for me to meet any celebrities or famous people. I’d just go meet myself in the past and we’d both be equally awkward. 🤝

Tagging: I'm not sure at all who's already been tagged but I'm bravely tagging some people that maybe have not been? No pressure! @wretcheddoll @littleshopofflorrors @ladyvampir3 @half-as-big-as-life @bunnnster and everybody who wants to do it 😄

[the-apocrypha]

Was tagged by both @tj-dragonblade and @pellaaearien in a "get to know me" type meme. So, for anyone interested!

What's the origin of your blog title?

I changed my fandom handles in 2014, and thought that "apocryphal" was very fun because it encompassed both my religion major, and because technically fanfiction meets certain definitions of "apocryphal texts" as well. I'm apocryphal on AO3 and discord, but unfortunately, it was taken over here on Tumblr, so instead we have the-apocrypha!

OTP(s) + shipname(s)

Um. Right now I'm still pretty firmly in Sandman (Dreamling), though I have put precisely one little pinky toe into Arcane (Jayvik, predictably).

Favourite colour

Blues, greens, and purples!

Song stuck in your head

Cruel World by Active Child

Weirdest habit/trait

Um. I have dermatographia, which means that I can theoretically write on my skin (but mostly it just means that if I try on clothes in a store, I come out looking like I'm having a moderation skin reaction to the factory's detergent.)

Hobbies

Reading, running, hiking, baking, piano, photography, swimming, cycling, board games, and sometimes I write one or two words of fanfiction.

If you work, what's your job?

Professional slicer and dicer. :D

If you could have any job you wish, what would it be?

My current job! I love what I do, and I'm very lucky to also be well-paid to do it. The only thing I would change, if this is allowed to be total fantasy, is that I'd take a contract with something like 12-16 weeks of vacation a year.

Something you're good at

I can, on command and with absolute accuracy, spread my index and middle fingers apart to any requested distance under 10 cm.

Something you hate

The word "nonchalant". Everyone gets in a lather about moist, but nonchalant is the true villain here and it should be immediately outlawed from the English language. It is a terrible, horrible, no-good very bad word. You can check the millions of words I have written in twenty-plus years of authorship and I have never, not once, not ever used that atrocious construction of sounds.

Also "chuckle".

"Lips" is on probation and should be used only in extenuating circumstances.

Something you collect

I started keeping a collection of playbills from shows I've seen, a few years back! I've got a good number, though I toss out duplicates when I move. One day, I'm going to figure out something to do with them...

Something you forget

Names. I'm terrible with names.

What's your love language?

Quality time, and probably also acts of service.

Favourite movie/show

The Lord of the Rings trilogy. I have the extended editions I got back in the 2000s when they came out, and they are in fact the only DVDs that I own, and the entire reason I own a DVD player.

Favourite food

French fries. Espescially Belgian style. <3

Favourite animal

Cats! I'm basic, what can I say.

What were you like as a child?

Bookish, but also bossy AF. I was smart and I knew it. A ringleader in most social situations. I was constantly either acting out stories with dolls, writing stories, or writing plays and then conscripting the neighborhood children into acting them out. Loved the outdoors, and had a minor obsession with survivalist tales (Hatchet, Island of the Blue Dolphins, My Side of the Mountain). Could be frequently found in the woods reenacting my own versions of these.

Favourite subject at school

Sciences! Especially biology.

Least favourite subject

Math? I do like math, but it's never really liked me back, unfortunately

What's your best character trait?

I'm very good at recognizing when a situation needs a leader, and when it needs a follower, and I'm comfortable slotting into whichever role is needed in the moment.

What's your worst character trait?

I'm not always very good about thinking about others, on a micro scale--things like remembering birthdays, or remembering that someone's mom is having a big surgery this week, or following up after emotional conversations. Also not great at keeping in touch long-distance. I get in my head about people not actually wanting to stay in touch with me, and then I don't reach out, and then it's been too long and now it's awkward.

If you could change any detail of your life right now, what would it be?

My cat is very elderly, and I know her time with me is going to come to an end in the near future. I'd age her back like fifteen years so I could have more time with her. <3

I feel like this is ended on such a low note lol. Oh well. IDK who's been tagged and who's done this already, so tagging @cuubism, @dsudis, @embroiderling, and @softest-punk, if they want to share!

[acourtofthought]

I think what bothers Gwynriel is that you have to call Gwyn underdeveloped just to justify Elain’s underdeveloped character. Of course Gwyn isn’t fully developed she’s only appeared in one book, while Elain has been around in all of them. Calling gwyn one-dimensional out of nowhere feels petty, especially when not just some Gwynriel but many people in this fandom struggle to define Elain’s personality beyond being kind and just there. Also it’s weird that you assume all your anons are Gwynriels and talk about Gwyn that way as a result, when it’s probably not even them.Just people who find it odd that you said Nyx should interact with Elain before Gwyn as if Elain automatically has a claim to his interactions just because she lives with him and was present at his birth and related by blood. I am not a Gwynriel. I love Lucien which is why I see your posts all the time. But this time you fumbled hard by talking like that in your post and replies to those anons—tearing down a female character just to make Elain seem better. You keep saying that this is your post and youre entitled to your opinion, yet you also usually go around commenting on other people’s posts about their opinions on Elain, explaining why you think they’re wrong. Tit for tat and all that dont you think.

So when you guys call Elain underdeveloped and say she isn't ready for a book, it's alright and we should all just sit down and shut our mouths. But if I merely point out the hypocrisy in that statement, how other characters are equally developed or underdeveloped depending on how you want to look at it, it's petty and out of nowhere.

Also, to rephrase, Gwyn isn't necessarily underdeveloped. I just don't think we've seen all her layers. And that means she's no better off than Elain right now because we need a pov for both to fully understand them.

And you're damn right. I am absolutely allowed to say I'd like to see Nyx interactions from an Elain pov before anyone else. Just like you love to claim Gwyn will ride a pegusus before Lucien though they belong to his father or she'll discover her Autumn heritage before he reunites with his mother.

Clearly we all have our headcanons but when you use the wrong tags, when the Elain and Lucien tag is filled with anti rhetoric or "they're just going to have to accept waiting until after Gwynriel" you should expect push back. I did not use any Gwynriel tags on the posts that caused such uproar so I'm not sure what else I could have done when sharing my own headcanon or thoughts on Elucien. I guess you'd prefer Elucien's just never say a single thing outside their own ship while you seem to have no issues with others saying whatever they want outside their OTP.

You should probably just stop with the anons because all you do is continue proving how guilty you are of double standards.

Again, there are many amazing Gwynriels in this fandom but your behavior is not it. You are acting like the bullies you claim to hate from the e/riel side of things.

[lesmisshippingshowdown]

Round of 16: Midweek Update

We're approximately (checks watch) slightly more than halfway through the Round of 16! Wahoo!

Thank you so much to everyone who has voted, submitted propaganda, and submitted steal works so far! We're loving the creativity this tournament has inspired and we look forward to seeing more submissions from you over the weekend.

Update 1: Battles to Watch

If anyone was wondering, the closest battle right now is Jehan/Montparnasse vs. Bahorel/Feuilly, standing at a 43.1-56.9 balance. I'd keep an eye on Turnchetta vs Courfius too - although they're currently working on a 39.9-60.1 balance, Turnchetta Nation have been really killing it in the propaganda game lately, and at this stage in proceedings I think it could still go either way.

On the other end of the scale, our polls currently winning by the biggest margin are Enjolras/Grantaire vs. Courfeyrac/Enjolras (84.3-15.7) and Courfeyrac/Grantaire vs. Joly/Bossuet/Musichetta (11.3-88.7). If you're a fan of the underdog ships in these brackets, all is NOT LOST! As the saying goes, the best time to go to the polls, post your propaganda, and submit fanworks to steal back some points was yesterday. The second best time is NOW!

Update 2: The Great Round 2 Steal-Off

It is with some regret that I must tell you we have currently received zero (that's 0, that's zilch, that's nada) submissions for the Round 2 Steal Off :((

As a reminder, if your favourite ship was eliminated in the Round of 32, you can give them the opportunity to fight in a sudden death poll next week to RE ENTER THE BRACKET AT THE QUARTER FINAL STAGE, NO STRINGS ATTACHED!

How? Just post a new (or freshly updated) fanwork of your choice and tag it #lmss steal (and send us an ask - not DMs, tumblr won't let us have those - letting us know you've done this so we definitely don't miss it!)

And the good news about us having received no submissions so far? Even submitting ONE fanwork for your favourite ship could do enough to qualify them for the sudden death poll. Like Tesco would say: every little helps!

Just to refresh your memory, the eliminated ships who you can still submit steal works for are:

Combeferre/Courfeyrac

Jehan/Courfeyrac

Combeferre/Éponine

Enjolras/Éponine

Combeferre/Grantaire

Marius/Éponine

Montparnasse/Éponine

Feuilly/Jehan

Combeferre/Joly

Fantine/Jean Valjean

Courfeyrac/Éponine

Feuilly/Éponine

Bahorel/Éponine

Bahorel/Grantaire

Jehan/Grantaire

Azelma/Combeferre

Update 3: Gathering thoughts...

I'll get straight to the point: would it be beneficial to you guys if I extended the deadline for poll stealing submissions (for both regular Round of 16 steals and the Great Round 2 Steal Off) for a few days beyond the expiry of the polls themselves?

My reasoning for this is as follows:

For you guys' benefit, it gives you longer to work on your fanworks and submit something that you're proud of!

It also means if somebody sees these polls for the first time hours before the deadline and thinks "but wait! I'd love to submit a fanwork to steal points for my OTP but now I don't have time..." they will, in fact, have that time.

For my entirely selfish benefit, it's my birthday this weekend (please direct all well wishes to @lonelyroommp3) and I will be spending at least the next four days in alternating states of drunk, sleep deprived, and hungover, like Grantaire would want. Extending the deadline for steal submissions would thus give me & my fellow mod @glindalesbian a little more breathing room to do our various bits of poll admin related to the end of the round and the implementation of the sudden death round :)

The blog we initially stole this idea from (shoutout @hbowartournament once more) allows submissions up to a week after the polls have expired per their rules so like, only fair innit

Potential other factors in deciding your vote could be:

This would then push back the start of the quarter finals by a few days too, probably until next weekend (though it wouldn't be a completely dead period - remember we'll still potentially have a sudden death steal-off poll to run if people get their works submitted in time!)

You will have a few days where you know EXACTLY how each poll finished and can tactically steal points accordingly....

So, I ask you now:

as always, if you have any further questions please drop us an ask :)

[thevulturesquadron]

"I imagine that ‘some things are deeper than skin’ is the line they wanted to get out of it. (For me that fell flat and overall I think once again Rogue drew the short straw just to accommodate her relationship with Remy but that’s a different conversation all together)."

Okay, here i was reading this ask in the tag and saw this. Now you've piqued my interest. When you've got the time i'd love to know your thoughts on this. 😯

hey there traveler! 🌠 I said that? Oops, might have thought that one out-loud. Silly me. 😶 Well, we’re here now so we might as well drive this one home. 'Some things are deeper than skin' was a shallow take on the situation for the trio, imo. It felt like a sticker placed on top of a damaged car. Some things are definitely deeper than skin. So are Rogue's feelings for Erik. So is what her time with him inspired in her. For someone who was a terrorist, who presented drastic solutions to the world, not once did he try to push that onto Rogue. On the contrary, it was made clear that, in the time they spent together in TAS, he taught her to see her powers not as a curse but as an essential part of who she is. He spoke to her about what it really means to embrace her identity, about building a future that makes her feel proud of who she is, about her powers creating a sense of belonging instead of discomfort, shame, and alienation. His presence in her life taught her not to fear who she is, not to put limits on what she can do, it taught her to be a part of the world she wants to see herself living in. THAT is why she fell in love with him. That is the Erik that Rogue loves. The whole 'touch' only came in later. We already see her falling in love with him before they even considered the possibility of touching. I love Gambit with all my heart, but in that scene he didn't consider a single thing of what Rogue had to say about why she wanted to be part of Genosha's future. He literally went ahead and did the opposite of what Erik had done - he made Rogue revert into herself and feel the pain of her inability to touch for the sole purpose of romantic and sexual gain. That line was ultimately used to show that Remy was in the right, to frame him as the one that's been hurt, with close to no consideration for Rogue and what she wanted from life. He says 'some things are deeper than skin' and it feels off coming from him, someone who has the privilege of sharing a connection based on touch with others. It makes Remy come across as not listening to what's being said. And I know his words in that interaction can be read as romantic in the sense of 'we can overcome anything'. It's a valid interpretation, but it doesn't work for me. I'd rather two partners try and understand each other and listen to each other than dismiss it with a 'we'll find a way'. Especially when one of them is deeply affected by it. It just isn't my jam. So having Rogue echo the 'some things are deeper than skin' fell flat because it only addressed part of the reason why her and Erik shared something. I think there is love in Rogue for both men and, unlike Magneto, Gambit is just not willing to accept it. It has to be him and only him. All this when he's had a lifetime prior to Rogue of experiencing intimacy, touch and relationships and understanding what he wants and what he values. In this instance it just feels like he's indirectly manipulating Rogue's emotions, making her sink into guilt and self-doubt (very important to note here that he's not doing it on purpose, but as an instinctive reaction to his own emotions - because this speaks both of his qualities and his flaws). So when Rogue says ‘Remy was right, some things are deeper than skin’ I think that is her guilt and insecurity talking.

I grew up with ROMY as my OTP but then, in time, that flame died and my view of the ship shifted. Part of the reason is because I started seeing a pattern in their relationship where often times Rogue would end up being the one pulled down, having to accommodate, accept and even apologize for things. And I was just not vibing with it anymore.

Get To Know Your Moots!!

thank you for the tag @bradleybeachbabe!

what’s the origin of your blog title?

Something I came up with years ago for a different blog of mine. I used it for years before I changed it, but I held onto it and decided to use it here when I shifted away from the one fandom.

OTP(s) + ship names

Scully/Mulder 5ever, Destiel 6ever, Sterek, IceMav, and several others I'm sure I'm forgetting lol

Dandelion Yellow!

Animal Crossing New Horizons and anything Pokemon related tbh

song stuck in your head

Labour - Paris Paloma

weirdest habit/trait

Uuuuuuuuuh I press on the pads of my fingers a lot

hobbies

Writing, drawing, painting, cross-stitch, embroidery, gaming, watching movies/tv

if you work, what’s your profession?

I work as an admissions advisor for higher education

if you could have ANY job, what would it be?

I'd love to be a museum curator or be a full time author. Maybe one day I'll even get my masters or PHD in Linguistics and do that full time.

something you’re good at

I'm pretty well spoken, in my opinion. I'm pretty good at giving presentations and making connections with people.

something you’re bad at

Small talk and fluffing up how I speak. I'm a very direct kind of person, and I'll tell you what I'm thinking without beating around the bush. I don't think I'm necessarily mean about it, I just don't see the point in not saying exactly what I mean about things. I'm a clear and concise communicator and that's offputting to some people.

something you love

Fierce winds, zoos, aquariums, traveling, language, books, animals, mythology, history, folklore, learning, and then the staples (friends/family)

something you could talk about for hours off the cuff

Linguistics, history, philosophy, animals, my stories (both fanfiction and og fiction)

something you hate

people who consider themselves experts on things they have no idea about, hypocrites, people who play the victim (especially when they perpetuate things themselves), people who take everything personally, people who avoid responsibility for their actions. I also hate pity or when people say "I'm sorry" to me when something bad happens that's not even their fault.

something you collect

I've collected animal figurines since I was really small. I would get them every time I went to the zoo. I also collect stuffies, pens, books, and rocks.

something you forgot

favorite animal

Stingrays, gorillas, foxes

what were you like as a child?

I was definitely wise beyond my years lol I freaked a lot of adults out because I knew things most kids my age didn't. It was hard for me to keep friends because my interests were so different from my peers', but I managed to make a handful that I'm still very close with today. I had a hard time connecting with people. I preferred books and animals to people to be sure. I was a weird kid.

favorite school subject

English and history. I enjoyed certain sciences as well.

least favorite subject

I've always struggled with math. The number jump around and I have spacial awareness problems that gave me an even harder time in certain math subjects.

what’s your best character trait?

I would say loyalty. I'm loyal to a fault, whether it's people I care about or a cause I'm passionate about.

what’s your worst character trait?

I tend to be very blunt about things. I also tend to keep my feelings bottled up until I explode.

if you could change any detail of your job right now, what would it be?

Less traveling would be nice. More pay at least.

if you could travel through time, who would you most like to meet?

Maybe Joan of Arc or Elizabeth I?
