#i will literally never recover

[ohnohelpitsagain]

so idk if we’re getting a bard’s lament this season, but regardless of if we are or not i NEED to talk about my most favorite dynamic ever so i can get this convo back out into the universe before a bard’s lament happens because it makes me unwell.

vex and scanlan are, in many ways, the same. they’re deeply insecure, sad people that put on masks to hide it. they’re good liars. so that’s what they do. they stand in front of each other and they lie. and it’s not hard for them to know the other is lying. i mean vex LITERALLY SEES THROUGH HIS DISGUISE EVENTUALLY LIKE ARE YOU KIDDING?

and like, vex is snippy and she can be a bit of a shit and she says scanlan is just some guy without his magic. but he’s also the person she looks up to. she literally travels across the whole continent by herself to make sure his daughter can get to him and she sends kaylie back to him even though she’s distraught and terrified and alone. she’s the one person who actually gets through to him during a bard’s lament and she gets through to him by telling him to stop viewing his daughter as a sacred object. to fix his relationship with her. AND HE LISTENS. like again she is the ONLY person in that room who gets through to him and it’s because she implores him to fix his relationship with his daughter after he cruelly remarks that they went to the fey realm to “fix her daddy issues.”

and scanlan! he teases her and he deflects his seriousness around her with humor as much as he does to anyone. but he teaches vex how to use the broom and he gives her the hat to wear. and he ensures her success when he turns her into a dragon and directly tells a god that she’s mean and greedy and the most perfect one of all of them.

scanlan is a father with a fractured relationship with his daughter and vex is a daughter desperate for her father’s approval.

scanlan is not vex’s father. but when scanlan comes back she does everything she can to try and make sure he won’t leave again despite the way he hurt her.

vex is not scanlan’s daughter. but he walks her down the aisle and makes sure she can see her brother at her wedding and he’s happy to be like her father for a day.

scanlan is NOT vex’s father and vex is NOT scanlan’s daughter but really, aren’t they made of the same stuff?

Tonight I learned that my 20 yr old partner has never played chess and doesn't know how to play chess. This is mind boggling to me. They claim its not weird for people to not know anything about chess so I. I need to see. Please.

Okay so, I made a mistake in not elaborating the meaning of the options. You do not have to be good or know what you are doing in the slightest to pick that you have played before. The middle three options are for your understanding of the game having never played it at all. The reason there's a percentage on the last option is because my partner made a tumblr so they could pick it because they think they are hilarious.

im still thinking abt how eurylochus was the only voice who changed tempo/speed DRASTICALLY in love in paradise..

and he’s the only one who got cut off? polites finished his whole verse and anticlea is singing one word so 😭😭 but eurylochus still had the “and people die on it, woah ohh”

is it bc his words affected odysseus the most? bc eurylochus’ words were the truth and nothing but the truth? polites is giving odysseus an ideology that got him and most of the crew killed, if odysseus held onto it then he would die anyway as well.

but eurylochus chimes in and keeps him grounded. odysseus tries to fight his voice the most, but he can’t fight the truth, and that’s why every time he goes “HOW” it breaks through the other voices then fades back again.

each word is dragged out as if they cling onto odysseus’ mind, knowing that eurylochus was right the whole time, yet he still refuses to fully acknowledge it.

odysseus then cuts eurylochus off right before he says “and people die on it.” bc, well, does that need to be said? it’s the blatant truth and odysseus finally realises that as he calls out to his immortal friend - his only friend that can’t die on him.

she didn't ask for this she didn't ask for this she didn't ask for any of this she didn't ask to be anyone's redemption or bandaid or moderator or light but now that she's here she might as well make the most of it but those roles were too stifling so she went searching for community and autonomy and love that isn't only given by condition of how well she plays her roles for love that's enough to make her the priority but the vampires out there are vicious and the vampire in her home is vicious and the community she finally thought she found has been rotted by centuries of fuckass customs and rules and are making her pay for it so she makes her own companion and gets her freedom but then-
