Dorm leaders with a Razor!MC

a/n: totally lost the pookie who asked for this but if by some miracle yk its you, pls dont beat me up for taking so long </3 /j

also if tumblr did smth weird with the bullet points again, point ur guns at the app

its one week before my exams so im using my adrealine for smth!!

You are generally good-natured person who considers your wolf pack your family and becomes enraged if they are hurt by other parties. You love your wolf family but dislike the fact that you aren't fully like them. You considered the few humans you do encounter to be your friends and are willing to protect them from danger if it means sacrificing your and your pack's dinner for the night. You are a quick thinker. You are also honest and forthright due to your limited exposure to human life. You are not used to speaking and only speak in short phrases and words, finding it troublesome, but you continue nonetheless.

Riddle

my mans stopping you like this to take a look at your uniform

pookie, youre a lil messy rn -he said this in anger, I'm just giving you the nicer version

its ok, he helped you clean up a lil after!!

u absolutely trying not to mess up the collar and tie up bcs its so uncomfortable:😢😔

it always goes back to the messy version as soon as hes out of sight or its half the day already

he wont find out (i lied he absolutely did)

he can always count on u to tell him the truth should your friends ever do smth bad

"broke. chair." while pointing at ace and deuece

they have tears in their eyes as riddle approach them

honestly some of ur behaviour makes him go⁉️

fr thought u were a beastman or smth

then found out youre just a human whos lived with wolves their whole life

FUCKEKEKE REMEMBER THAT TIME IN HIS OVERBLOT WHEN HE WAS TALKING ABT PARENTS

u being an orphan as he goes on with his speech: /JOKE

ace beats his ass up for u its ok

him trying to figure out how they didnt try to eat u🤔

he didnt try to stop u but that wont mean he wont go😅😅

ALSO eat ur veggies pls

hes chasing u around heartslabyul trying to make u eat a wee bit of carrots

Leona

"veggies:( bad:(" "so real"

^ur real time convo

whenever youre given food with veggies, u pass it off to leona

leona then pass it to ruggie who then muched it off

he absolutely told u to give ruggie any veggies btw (free food for the man‼️)

ruggie is forever happy to receive free food

he actually thought u were a beastman too because of your scent

"r u a jack kinnie?" he would ask (he didnt ask it like that)

turns out you just got raised by them

idk savanaclaw might be an ok? place for u? considering most of them r beastman there

like its not even surprising to see u practicing with them every morning anymore

ruggie dragged both u and leona by the collar to practice btw

"im all the way in ramshackle" leona surprise adopted u to savanaclaw, dont resist /J

u surprisingly get along well with him‼️‼️

leona acting like he doesnt care abt the youngsters👴🙄 (hes failing)

he totally didnt take a nap with you in his usual spots, no who did that?? pft not him

no he did NOT save u from accidentally getting hurt by your friend's troubles btw no

also, he did not mind that you do not talk much

he didnt even need to put many efforts in trying to trick u, u just go thumbs up at him

he does not care if youre a beastman or not. a business opportunity is all you'll ever be to him

maybe a friend too but you'll need to unlock friendship level 10 for that

can wolves swim underwater, im sayign yes for plot reasons

anyways u came back from trying to get the painting(?) picture (?) like a wet dog

im saying nonsense rn i think i need sleep its almost 1am

he threw his head back 90° to laugh dramatically at how u reminded him of a wet dog

this is a joke, do not come for me

honestly he had to drag u away from the lounge once bcs u tried catching the fishes in the aquarium

"MF LEAVE MY FISHES TF ALONE IF U WANT TO LIVE" is what he wouldve said if hes not a professional businessman

he is a professional guys do not worry💯

honestly, he is pretty ? that you had trouble speaking

after finding out its bcs youve been isolated from the human things, he kind of goes🤔

the business in his head is controlling him before he can stop them😖🫣

Kalim

"oh man u have such fluffy hair"

kalim assumed theres no hairbrush in ramshackle

u dont have to worry bro, kalim is more than happy to stock u up with some hairbrush

"oh its nothing much dont worry😊🙏‼️" the literal gold handles on the hairbrush:

u dont have to worry abt not speaking much, he speaks enough for the both of u

he spoke such strange things u dont understand him sometimes

u just nod along and gave him thumbs up

its like sun and moon but the moon is confused /j

jamil had a mini heart attack when he went to wake kalim up in the morning to see hes missing from his bed

Vil

vil when be sees u

yk how yall lived in pomefiore for a bit after the idia thing??

yeah he polished u up so much bro

u came into the dorm looking like someone abandoned u so youe only option was to live in the jungle with the help of ur jungle friends and have survived through the way of the mammals since u were an infant

and u came out looking like a brand new person

u came out of the dorm looking like u got new skin that its literally shining under light, ur hair softer and no longer tangled and no more eyebags and u smell like flowers

vil wiping his forehead after a job well done😊🙏

also he was pretty shocked when he found out u were pretty isolated from the human norms or whatever

he did try his best to break you bad habits, like literally running in mud

he also helped u with like speaking problems?

he got u a whole dictionary in case u dont know the word bro

also fix ur uniform for ueach time u try to loosen it up because its too suffocating for u

if u try to loosen it up one more time, he'll add the veggies in ur plate

he absolutely does makes u eat ur veggies

/j he wouldnt. he have rook to help him with that

Idia

him after he fixed ur dorm with the greatest and newest updated quality just for u to sleep outside

but he just fixed it for u bro😢😢cant u at least sleep in there

grim sleeps in diff rooms every day bcs of the upgrade and u did this?? /j

oh well at least the outside kind of looks better now too he guess....

u dont even use the tv, u dont know how it works

"people in there real?" "? no ?"

he beats u in every video games ever because u literally could not keep up with technology

hes slaying everyone and youre wondering how to make ur character walk the way u wanted them to

u accidentally drowned somehow in the video game

he feels a tad bit bad for u

he cant bond much with u because like

hes quiet, youre quiet

hes a modern dude, u dont even know whats a phone

he likes video games, u prolly like hunting for food

if you two r in a room together, the only people who r talking r literally the wind

"whoosh whoosh whoosh🌬" whoosh whoosh🌪

Malleus

he spoke enough for the both of u (its abt gargoyles)

he actually spoke so much confusing words for u

u looked at him like 😃🫨 (ur head is spinning and u r dying)

u can always ask him if u dont understand tho

he will explain in another paragraph but its ok, at least u understand now

barely actually

ur brain hurts and its fried from talking to him since he use big words

he did try to use simpler words for u!!

oh u two can kind of bond i think

youre both not familiar with technology so it will work well

u know those faces grandparents make when looking through new technologies

like the eyes squinting and eyebrows furrowed look with thag confused look

yeah thats the both of u

u both try to figure it out together (it did not work out)

yall asked lilia for help

peepaw is into the trends, he can help the both of u dont worry!!

he saw how messy you could be sometimes and went damn

he'll fix u up with magic its ok

show me funny things, magic man

anyways its a habit of his to fix anything in ur appearance whenever u have ur nighty walks

like u have this dirt on ur white uniform? say no more.

theres a damned branch in ur hair (dont ask how u got that) and its tangled in ur hair?? he got u pookie

part of ur clothes r literally ripped off because god's knows what youve been doing in your free time??? u dont even need to ask bbg

Maze runner boys ~When they need you most ~

Minho: “I hate this place...I shucking hate it. We’re all just here getting comfortable living with a bunch of lies.” You look over at Minho shocked “Minho...whats wrong?” you place a hand softly on his shoulder as your eye brows frown. “You don’t get it Y/n...you don’t get what it feels like running throughout that maze everyday. To run straight through hell then just have it appear right back in front of you...the glade is just as bad as the maze its self.” 

“Minho..what has gotten into you!” your taken back at this point. Minho has never been like this not once. He was always so fun loving and positive. “The Glade is not the heavenly place it’s made out to be...the Glade is just to torment you, to abuse your own sanity. Ever since the moment all of us had appeared in that box we were already doomed.” 

“NOW YOU LISTEN TO ME MINHO!” you stand up straight in front of him. “Why are you living in the past, why are you thinking about the future...enjoy the present. Where you have me..newt..chuck..thomas and everyone else in the glade. Why torture yourself with polluted fantasies. Focus on whats happening now Minho. Because Now is what matters.” 

Minho looks up into you eyes. Minho had never seen you look more beautiful than in this very moment. You looked strong, determined and confident. You stood tall and proud. Your eyes glistens with hunger and desire, Minho never told you this but he looked up to you quite a lot. Your good with words, a smart thinker and an excellent leader. Minho loved you for that...even in the darkest of times you still lead and he would still follow. Till one day with you by his side..he will take your hand and lead the way. The way to a place more precious than the word itself..the way to your heart. 

Newt: “Im done Y/n...im infected. Im sorry...” Newt’s peer’s down into your eyes. There glossy and are threatening to spill at any moment. “Why are you apologising?” you coo softly, bringing your hand up to his cheek. Newt’s tears start to slide “Because i failed..i failed you” Newt chokes out. He engulfs you in a hug, his hands gripping on your back tightly. Newt starts sobbing into your shoulder, you run your hand through his messy blond hair. “You haven’t failed me love...i never had any expectations. I just wanted you to be you...the person that i want to love. Being a crank won’t change that..” Newt pulls back surprised, he looks in your eyes and he see’s hope. “What are you saying love..” he says softly.

“How do you think i survived all those years alone..” you pupils dilated, your skin started to go pail and veins slowly creeped in. “Who said that it had to be the end...why not make it your own new begging...make it yours...and TAKE IT!” you look sternly into Newts eyes. There were no longer any tears. Newt wasn’t scared anymore, he knew everything was going to be ok. 

Newt raised his hand to your sickly pail cheek, your once red roses lips now dark and faded. “You know love you still look just as beautiful as the day i first met you...even if you are a crank.” 

“I don’t see problem in it love? Do you” you smirk up at him. 

“Not at all..” Newt pulls you close hoping that this moment never end. 

Timeskip

Newt eventually became a crank but there’s was still hope. You stuck by his side through thick and thin. Endured all of his pain and anger and now your both out there in a world thats gone to shit. Still just as in love with each other as you where before. Newt is happy and healthy again, you taught him how not to succumb too is rage and the virus itself. Your love created hope and it will continue to create hope...for a new world. Where there is no need for a cure where the flair doesn’t matter. Where both cranks and humans can live as one. You both look forward to seeing Thomas again some day. 

Thomas: “You know maybe their right it is all my fault....” Thomas said looking down at the floor as he sat on the bed. You slowly walk over to him you raise your hand brushing it under his chin, lifting it up. “Whats wrong” you whisper, you know Thomas is in a lot of pain right now. “I miss him Y/n,  i miss all of them...why do i have to go around and ruin everything. We could have stayed at the glade and been happy..and not lose anybody.” He cries into his hands, Thomas uncontrollably sobs, you wrap your arms around his shoulders as he cuddles into your chest. You push his head more to your chest as your arms rub his back and stroke his hair. “Don’t stop dreaming Thomas...dreams aren’t just fantasies..there what we want to be. You fought for freedom, equality, peoples hopes, dreams, love , passion...everything. Your the reason why now is a better place. Not just for us but for our future..our children there children and it goes on. You took on the world..did the impossible. So live it up...for Newt..Alby..Chuck and Gally. They don’t have this chance but we do.” you finish whispering. Thomas looks up at you with is cute dreamy eyes, you push some strands out of his face. Before kissing his forehead.

Gally: Minho and Thomas are seen dragging you back into the maze after being abducted by the Grievers. They were sure that you were dead..but clearly no. 

They rush you to the med jack, carefully placing you down. You were unconscious, you had no injures at all not even a scratch. They decided to leave you alone and wait till you wake up. As they exit the hut Gally quickly enters...he had been so worried. 

He gazes over at your limp body. You face was so still, calm and perfect like a porcelain doll, the light highlighted all your features. You plum lips, long lashes and messy hair. He proceeded to come closer laying a hand on your head as he softly caressed your hair. “What did they do to you?” he says out of the blue. 

You groan opening you eyes “...im...im sorry but-t...i dont think i know you.” you say staring up at him a bit confused. Gally’s face dropped, his hearted ached..this could not be happening. “It’s me Y/n...this isn’t funny.” Gally said looking deep into your eyes. “Im sorry sir but i really have no clue..” Gally’s eyes watered, the tears soon started escaping. The most beautiful. person be valued above everything else was gone. All he has now is a shell of the girl he once had . A Girl that could kick is his ass in a brawl, the girl that would challenge him in ever way, the girl that drove him crazy and the only one who ever put him in his place. “Did i do something wrong..im sorry if i made you cry sir.” you picked up a cloth and began wipping Gally’s cheeks. He smiled a genuine smile, even though you have forgotten everything about him, you still treated him the same. You still looked at him with care in your eyes. Gally is determined to get you back and he’s gonna do what ever it take. His Y/n i still in there, he just has to go find her. 

[marv3l-drag0ns]

hey bitches im back. more pokestuck hc

Tavros would be the pokemon daycare caretaker- he doesn't have a big team, just his partner Togetic and a tauros (SORRY I COULDNT RESIST). Togetic is his tinkerbull in this offshoot, and they care very much for each other and always try to make each other's days easier. Tauros is mostly to make sure that unruly pokemon don't get out of line, and also to help Tavros carry stuff that he wouldn't be able to in his wheelchair. There's a happiny who hangs around because it wants to help take care of him, but Tavros always gets a little nervous when it does, because a) he's capable on his own (and what he might need help with he already has pokemon who are trained to do so) and b) he doesn't want to squish the happiny but it's constantly underfoot.

Next im thinking about Aradia- I wanted at first to say that she would be the Fossil Monger, but thought that that would be a little boring for such a cool gal, so then I thought, in a similar vein, "oh, she'd be a rock gym leader!" FORGETTING THAT SHE'S A MOTHERFUCKING GHOST!!!! Anyway she's going to be the paleontologist ANYWAY because I think it fits better <3. Aradia would have a Mandibuzz (vulture culture rise up), a Dubwool (heehoo ram), a Sigilyph, and a Yamask. She'd be more about archeology than paleontology, but I think she'd discover a bunch of amphibian or reptilian fossils (probably tirtouga) and be enamored. I don't think she'd think it unethical to dig up these fossils, but once she revives them and see how displaced the new pokemon are, she might feel a kinship and feel really bad about it.

Next up, Sollux! My first thought (from last night) was that he would be a bug type trainer (for the combee and vespiqueen) and then just now I was thinking of his psiioniics and thinking he'd be either a psychic or electric gym. So im still not 100% sure! I'll come back to him later, just now that I'm still doing me a thinker.

Skipping a few colorcastes, Vriska time! (yay........)

I saw this this morning while looking for pokemon for Rose- malamar! Known for mind control. I'm not planning on including the dancestors in this AU unless i have to, so Malamar would not be Vriska's ace, but rather one of Aranea's pokemon who survived long enough to find Vriska. Vriska's Ace would be Araquanid (Spidermom). She also has a spinnerak who she puts a lot of pressure on to evolve, because she wants to be very strong and a pokemon who still has evolutions is "obviously not strong enough". She also has a Toxapec that she saw and admired the moxie of when it (as Mareenie) tried to poison her. I think she'd also have a Tsareena and Salazzle- both very vain (and often written as cruel in the pokedex), but also very strong. I'm trying SO HARD to be objective with her istg. I don't want to put her as an Elite Four bcuz I think there are better options (coughGamzeecough), but I also don't know what Gym type she'd be... Jury's still out.

Ok some more background! Dirk was considering trying to be an Electric type gym leader to follow in Dave's footsteps, but found calling in a different profession (still having to do with robots, but not sure what.) He also moonlights as a fiction writer/artist (robots aren't cheap man). He's fairly good friends with Equius, though Equius only knows him as Horse Conoseur and follows his Pokegram (instagram but pokemon). Equius is actually kind of grouchy at Dirk Strider, famous roboticist and lead pokeball developer (THERE WE GO im so smart).

Equius is the leader of the fighting gym (STRONG!!!!) His gym is very clean, but if the player pokes around, they will find scraps of every item present in the gym in trashcans or corners from where Equius or his pokemon have crushed stuff. After beating Equius, he kinda bluescreens (HAH) about how such a lowbl00d was able to beat him (he's still snooty). Later, if the player returns, he'll talk to them about how he wishes he was able to follow his dream of going into robotics, and also wishes he had more horse pokemon on his team. He'd probably be the 4th gym. his ace would be... Hisuian Decidueye (bow and arrow motif!). However, he's kind of distant from them because he can't do cool bow and arrow tricks due to being so STRONG. He'd also have a Machamp, Hitmonchan, Hariyama, and Clobbopus- all very fist-feely pokemon.

2/2 of the Meowrails duo! Yknow what I'm going to bestow unto Nepeta Elite Four StatusTM. She's cool and also a little feral gremlin (and I want to give her ALL da cat pokemon <3) Nepeta is the newest member of the Elite Four. She clashes a little with Jade (DogVCat world T-T), and deals with a bit of grief from challengers due to her being an "UwU catgirl". Let the UwU on deez nuts as she beats their asses. Time to scrounge up your post about nepeta's team... OK HERE WE GO! Shiny Purugly as her Ace! Alolan Ninetails (though I'm changing this slightly- Equius got it for them after they became moirails, though he had to ask Feferi for help). Flygon (found a little baby trapinch and thought they were ADORABLE)! Crobat, bane of all Hateful Trolls on Alternia! Dusk Lycanroc from Jade! They're trying to make up a bit :] Last pokemon... I'm going Zangoose! They have the same claws that Nepeta does, and are the "Cat Ferret" pokemon, so its not too offbrand. Zangoose keeps bringing her Seviper tails, and she loves them so much, so theres just a large pile of "knives" in the backyard of her house. To sum up this post- who do we have so far?

Elite Four: Jade, Nepeta

Gym Leaders: John, Dave, Equius (Possibly Sollux, Vriska)

Other: Daycare Tavros, Fossil Expert Aradia, Professor Rose

I SEE THOSE TAGS . EXPLDOES

please omg ramble this is so interesting

ok im awake and also formulating. the bag of cats is wide open and by god those cats are running around knocking over glasses

Ok so theres 8 gyms, 4 elite 4, and 1 champion, as well as the professor. Thats 16 spots.

I dont know who the professor would be... i could see rose because shes so silly and "oh yes i am very worldly believe me i am very cool". She would probably make fore-shadowy comments whenever the player sees her.

Her Ace would be Gothitelle both because heehoo goth pokemon but also because gothitelle is said to be able to see the future through the stars. She would also have an Absol, because she's working around and planning for disasters a lot. I also want to give her a misdreavus or mismagius, though that's more for the aesthetic than for a bigger reason. As a professor, she would be studying the intersection between death/disaster and life, and how pokemon help those interactions.

I think that John would be the ex-champion, who's now in charge of a gym (probably 6 or 7). He'd (of course) be a flying gym. He'd make jokes the entire time, and you'd have to walk through a bunch of pranks and net traps to get to him. He'd probably make references to slightly different pasts (like- oh you used that move? I thought you used x). Pretty even balance between physical and special attack.

His ace would be Braviary, because they're very friend-focussed. He'd also have a Swellow- swallows are common in washington, so it makes sense in a meta standpoint. I think Dad would have gifted him a pidgey so they could grow together, so he would also have a Pidgeot. Im gonna give him a Dragonite because they're also very good fliers, and I think he'd have found a dratini in lowas. I'll also say... Noivern, for the organ on lowas, and I want to give him a Corviknight but I feel like thats much more of a Dave pokemon. Looking further, I think he would have a Xatu, to kind of represent the revamp powers he gets- Xatu is a newer pokemon that he got right before he was beat as Champion, so John's still working on befriending it and understanding all of Xatu's social cues.

Speaking of Dave! He'd be the gym right before John- he wanted to become an Elite 4, and is still kind of gunning for that position, but is chill working smaller. He'd be a steel type gym. The gym'd have a lot of clock motifs around, and the field would look a lot like a clockface. There would be a secret room where you could talk to the Mayor, and see Can Town, with a chance to catch a special pokemon (haven't decided who though) He'd be more physical attack, but a few special attack moves.

His Ace would be Corviknight (cough cough knight bird whose a crow. yay!). He got a little rookidee as a kid, and that rookidee's seen a lot of shit while being with Dave. Corviknight is VERY defensive, and Dave trusts it with his life. Dave would also have a Klinklang (clock motif) and Bisharp (swordfighter). His final pokemon would be an Aegislash, but he's not very well acquanted with Aegislash, and tends to get a little frustrated.

Jade would be an Elite Four member. She's one of the stronger ones, and super badass, but likes to goof off and be silly when not battling. She'd pop in and out of player meetings. She's VERY focused on special attack. She's a bit leery of psychic type pokemon, especially pokemon who have a reputation for mind control.

Her Ace would be a shiny Arcanine who's very quiet/aloof. She would also have a Lycanroc (midday), a Gourgheist (who's got more than a few psychic attacks), a Reuniclus (who knows Rock Slide or Gyro Ball), a Dragapult (im going off my memory of her having a gun, also she would like the Dreepy she finds and then hang out with it a lot) and finally a Greninja (galaxy frog!). I wanted to give her a Drednaw instead of a Dragapult, so that might be an alternative.

Those are the first four kids, I have plans for the trolls and some other guys that I'll put in a separate post.

Let’s talk about zodiacs and TPN Part 1

This is largely inspired by the fact that I talk about the characters’ zodiacs nonstop in the fanfic I’m working on for my tpn witch au, and I’ve been chortling to myself the entire time about how well some of them fit their sign and how some of them just... don’t. I’m going to simply infodump about each character, their sign, element, and some attributes they fit to a t while others don’t make sense. I will also touch on compatibility for all you shippers out there, don’t worryyy. Now this isn’t at all a critique or review of the characters themselves— I know astrology is not the first thing authors consider when choosing character birthdays, if they even do at all, this is simply me rambling about my hyperfixation and projecting onto fictional characters like we all do.

A couple last notes— one character in particular (cough cough Ray) has a different “canon” birthdate from “actual” so I’ll discuss both. Also, while I will be doing surface level research to make sure I’m not talking out of my ass, im not a professional astrologist, I’m simply a witch with an enthusiasm for zodiacs. Well then, without further ado, let’s talk about the kiddos.

Emma

Birthdate: August 22nd

Sign: Leo

Element: Fire

An overview: The funniest thing to me about Emma is that she’s literally the epitome of a Leo. Fire signs are generally very outgoing and energetic—they talk a lot and tend to be the leaders of the packs. Leos in particular are incredibly admirable and truly know their way around a conversation. If I ever wanted to get stuck in an elevator for 48 hours with no wifi or connection to the outside world and only one random stranger to talk to for the entire duration, I would pick a Leo in a heartbeat. Emma is very much the leader-type, she’s someone everyone pauses and listens to when she calls for their attention, and she always prefers to talk her way out of conflict rather than fight—but not in an underhanded manipulative way, no, Leos are very genuine with their feelings and will be upfront about their reasons for their actions.

Take this scene between Emma and Leuvis for example— this to me is about the closest to perfect of a summary of what Leos are like, and how Emma fits her sign beautifully.

She doesn’t want to fight, but she will if she has to—for the good of her friends and the good of humanity. She can stick to her ideals and yet extend a hand to the enemy anyway. This is what makes Leos such a force to be reckoned with in leadership roles.

Compatibility and ships: I know I know, this is the part you’re most excited about. I’m going to attempt to refrain from sharing my opinion on each ship itself, I will simply point out which have the highest compatibility levels. First of all, essentially all signs are most compatible with 1. Other signs of the same element and 2. Their compliment sign, their elemental opposite.

Since Emma is a fire sign, she’s generally compatible with other fire signs (Sagittarius, Aries, and of course Leo) as well as Air signs (Aquarius, Gemini, and Libra). So speaking broadly, she’s compatible of course with Norman as an Aries, as well as Ray IF he truly is an Aquarius. But if we narrow it down a little bit, I should mention that fire signs being fire signs can often clash with each other because both their energies are so high (personal experience lmao), and therefore their elemental opposite, air, are generally the way to go. Usually you’ll find on astrological charts and sites that Leos are most compatible with Geminis and Aquariuses, so Ray again if he is an Aquarius, and then we bring Violet into the picture because she’s a Gemini. (Uh, speaking as a Gemini, Leos are my favorite people to date, and I always seem to crush on them as well. I have a problem. A Leo problem.) I’m so sorry Gilemma shippers but fire and earth signs are like the worst combo, I don’t know how this happened because I love Gilemma with all my heart. The stars simply did not align for us this time

Norman

Birthdate: March 21st

Sign: Aries

Element: Fire

Overview: okay listen. I didn’t believe Norman was an Aries at first because he’s not as high energy as most fire signs, but then the more I thought about it, the more it just makes sense. The most key trait to an Aries is loyalty. They are so incredibly loyal and caring to the people they love that they often neglect themselves in the process. They can be very quick to anger if someone hurts or insults their friend, and are unafraid to start a fight or commit morally gray or even black actions in service of their loved ones. Point is you don’t mess with an Aries’ family or friends. You will get burned.

All the loyalty applies to Norman so incredibly well—the way that his plans and actions revolve entirely around Emma and Ray, and the way that he sacrifices himself for their escape even though he’s terrified of dying. But even more so this loyalty strikes you in the face when he returns as William Minerva, willing and committed to full on genocide all to keep his friends alive and safe. As I’ve said Aries are quick to anger, which seemingly isn’t very present in cool-headed, thoughtful Norman, but then you remember this:

Look at his expression. Even if he doesn’t easily lose his cool, when he does it’s terrifying. So essentially Norman is a much more subtle Aries— he’s not in your face aggressive or full of energy, but he has all the hidden signs. So yeah, I honestly can’t think of any other sign that describes him better. Norman is an Aries.

Compatibility and ships: being a fire sign and all, Norman’s compatibility is actually very similar to Emma’s. He’s compatible with other Fire signs (Sagittarius, Leo, and Aries) as well as Air signs (Libra, Aquarius, and Gemini). Speaking broadly that makes him compatible with Emma and Ray again, but narrowing it down Aries are much better in general with Libras and Leos so congrats Noremma shippers you won.

Ray

“Canon” Birthdate: January 15th

“Actual” Birthdate: February 5th

“Canon” sign: Capricorn

“Actual” sign: Aquarius

“Canon” Element: Earth

“Actual” Element: Air

Overview: alright Ray is a bit of a mixed bag to unpack. Because it’s been stated that Ray’s January 15th birthday is not his actual birthday outside of the source material, then it’s reasonable for me to count both birthdays because people have different ideas of what’s canon and what’s not. Interestingly enough though, Ray does indeed fit well enough into both the Capricorn and Aquarius signs, however I personally believe one shows through him better than the other.

We’ve been talking about fire signs for Emma and Norman so it’s finally time to dive into two other elements! We’ll start with Capricorn then, the Earth sign. The most important thing to remember is that the Earth signs are the most grounded and practical. If you want someone who can give you logical and rational advice, your best bet would be the Earth signs (Air signs are also good at this but this ain’t about them. Although you will notice some overlap in traits between these two, particularly in Capricorns and Aquariuses).

We can already see the ‘practical’ side show through in Ray by the way he hyperfocuses on taking Norman and Emma to escape but insists on leaving the other kids behind. This isn’t to say he doesn’t feel for them, on the contrary, Earth signs are indeed very in tune with their emotions and empathy, but Capricorns really know how to set that part of them aside in favor of the calm and certain route. They like tangible solutions, things they can grasp with the least amount of risk, and they’re very resistant to changes—like giant rocks. This is also noticeable in how Ray gets so very flustered by Norman and Emma’s impulsivity. He clashes with both of them because Earth signs prefer to take things slow while Fire signs just like to make a leap and hope for the best.

Note how Emma says “not that I mind...” meanwhile Ray is out here going “I MIND!!” Which we learn is because of his identity as the spy. He’s got his own plan and a tangible solution to shoot for, and Norman and his impulsivity and Emma going along with it is messing everything up. Thus, he forcibly retakes control of the situation via making a deal with Norman after the traitor is revealed. Very Capricorn stuff.

And if you want an image that just completely sums up the Capricorn in Ray, here you go:

On the OTHER hand, if we’re to go off Ray’s “actual” birthdate, which was so lovingly calculated by Tempo, then we get Aquarius Ray, the Air sign. The most important things to note about the air signs is that they’re the thinkers—the farthest from impulsive, they’re the least in tune with their emotions, and they are oh so horribly indecisive. Where Earth signs will be able to give advice that adheres to both logic and emotion, Air signs stick purely to logic. Where Earth signs are able to make calm and rational decisions, Air signs will agonize over options and often find themselves lost, searching perpetually for a solution with no cracks in it. Hello. I’m an Air sign. :’))

I’m gonna come right out and say it. I hate Aquarius men. Aquarius women and enby folks, they’re great. But Aquarius men? I may, as a Gemini, get along with them in surface level casual conversation, but behind every Aquarius man’s back is a Mal waiting to strangle him the moment I am given the opportunity. I’m so sorry Ray my son but you are not an Aquarius okay. Alright. Well, let’s just talk about the parts of him that do fit Aquarius.

So from the very start Ray is obviously a thinker, someone who considers his options very carefully before he makes a decision, and someone who hates making choices based solely on emotion. In fact, he hates expressing emotions at all. Aquariuses are very good at repressing or hiding their emotions behind other emotions (most air signs are). The most common way to do this is to put up a wall of either numbness or full-on rage. We can see both in Ray.

Instead of showing vulnerability in a healthy way, he would rather do that. Ok cool Ray.

Aquariuses can also be very quiet people, and Ray’s pretty dang quiet for most of the series too. They’re the intellectuals you know are intellectuals even though they aren’t up in your face about it. Their reserved nature makes them 10x scarier when they’re genuinely angry, because boy can an Aquarius rage.

The thing about Aquarius Ray for me here is that while Ray does indeed have Aquarius energy, it’s not the Core of Ray. To me he’s so much more of an Earth sign, so therefore I diagnose Ray with Capricorn.

Compatibility and ships: ok this is a mixed bag again. Now if you got Aquarius Ray then of course he’s compatible with other Air signs (Gemini, Libra, and Aquarius) and Fire signs (Leo, Aries, and Sagittarius), which would make him compatible with Norman and Emma for sure, as well as probably Ayshe for you Rayshe shippers because my personal HC is Aquarius Ayshe.

If you’ve got Capricorn Ray, then Capricorns are compatible with other earth signs (Taurus, Virgo, Capricorn) and their compliment water signs (Cancer, Pisces, and Scorpio), though they’re best with Cancers and Tauruses. So yes, Anna is a Taurus, which makes Rayanna a compatible pair. But guess who’s a Cancer. Don. ALL MY RAYDON SHIPPERS GET OUT HERE YOU COWARDS IM CALLING YOUR NAME. YOU WIN THE SHIP GAME.

Gilda

Birthdate: May 13th

Sign: Taurus

Element: Earth

Overview: So again with the practical and grounded Earth signs. Tauruses now, are the most stubborn of them, which can be a little irritating at times, but it’s also a great asset when you consider how reliable they truly are. They’re bulls, which makes them solid and difficult to move, and you can always fall back on them when you’ve leapt too far ahead. Gilda is of course the epitome of reliable, and her stubbornness does show through at times—like when she’s the one person against Emma going out into danger all the time, constantly trying to talk her down into a more practical and certain solution. She’s also the first to attempt to bring Emma to see Ray’s side of the escape plan, which is very earth sign of both of them good job guys.

Compatibility and ships: I know I know I’m still upset Gilemma isn’t compatible astrologically but we can talk about other Gilda ships! Tauruses are most compatible with other earth signs (Capricorn, Virgo, and Taurus) and water signs (Cancer, Scorpio, and Pisces) which makes her compatible with our other lovely Taurus, Anna! Gilanna shippers unite. But they’re best with Cancers and Scorpios, which means Gildon is is at highest compatibility.

Don

Birthdate: July 4th

Sign: Cancer

Element: Water

Overview: HEY YALL ITS TIME TO TALK ABOUT MY LEAST FAVORITE SIGNS: W A T E R. (I’m sorry my water friends, I’m sure you’re lovely, but as an air sign I am always extremely suspicious of water signs at first meeting because our compatibility is so low it might as well not exist) So the water signs are at the absolute highest emotional level. This can make them extraordinarily kind and nurturing, but it can also make them absolutely unreasonable and destructive. None is this more present than in Cancers, one of the most sensitive signs, but also one of the most empathetic. We can tell very clearly in Don that he wears his emotions on his sleeve—he’s unafraid to cry or show his anger, but he also takes very good care of his younger siblings and shows such an intense concern for them that it can become frightening.

He’s such a good boy 🥺

Compatibility and ships: okay so same drill, Cancers are generally compatible with other Water signs (Scorpio, Pisces, and Cancer) as well as Earth signs (Taurus, Capricorn, and Virgo) though their highest compatibility is with Tauruses and Capricorns. So again. GILDON AND RAYDON SHIPPERS R I S E.

God I’m so sorry if I cause a ship war. I rambled for too long and I’m very tired, so you only get these five characters for now. BUT! That’s why it’s a part 1. If you want more please feel free to harass me in my ask inbox about the characters you want me to overanalyze the signs of. Gemini out!

[il-ballo-della-vita-maneskin]

If I’m honest I most definitely have not hear about this band so apologies for my ignorance but I’m very much intrigued. If it isn’t too much of a hassle I wouldn’t mind getting a matchup. 😌🤝

Fem Aries / pansexual (they/she) / ENTJ-A 8w9

I’m known to be either very smiley and optimistically loud or very serious/demanding, quiet, and passive/realistic.

I’m easily angered/irritated however I forgive just as quickly.

I’m the type of person who doesn’t care what others say about me and I don’t take things in personally or rather I wouldn’t want to.

People say I come off as arrogant or selfish. Arrogant yes but I won’t really say I’m selfish. I like to do things that benefit me in a way, but also in a way that also benefits my surroundings.

I like to lead and be in charge of things. Im a quick thinker and like to get things done right then and there. Im very blunt and brutally honest in my leadership/also in general and because of that people may call me an ass or an insensitive beatch. However I’ve learned and tried to compromise with others to get what they also want.

Besides that I’m a very chaotic energetic person who tries to see the good in others and am always open to trying/learning new things

I adore (deep) cleaning and will do so whenever I want to, feel the need to, or when I’m pissed off. When I’m alone I prefer to be left alone and I’m very quiet whereas in public I’m very extroverted and energetic.

As far as hobbies I like to sing a lot I will sing whenever and wherever if not sing people always find me humming. I’m a violinist and a pianist.

I tend to like people romantically or even just as friends/people who are much more smarter than I am. And very affectionate through words or not. And people who know how to live in the moment unlike me who’s always future oriented. I like to give people things as an act of love.

If there’s anything else do feel free to ask either that please take your time with this I may have gone a bit too far with the information so I do apologize in regards to that 🛐

damiano!!

you’d two be so loud and energetic, eccentric and fun to be around. you are always trying new things, being chaotic in a good way together, leading parties and he loves that you are optimistic. though, he also loves how arrogant you can seem and how serious you can get.

whenever you are feeling like being quiet and in peace, he’d gladly clean around with you, though he would most definitely start singing after some time and would continue until you join him. he loves to hear you play instruments and is super proud of you.

he’d encourage you to live more in the moment and to stop thinking about future every once in a while. he admires you for being a leader and a quick thinker and is grateful you are always honest, cuz your opinion is very important to him and he wants to know exactly what you’re thinking.

you have quite a bit of stupid, trivial fights, but forgive each other very quickly. though, you always have a proper talk, explain to each other your point of view and find a compromise.

have a great day love🤍

P.S. have you checked them out? if you still haven’t, i’d highly recommend you to do so, lol. seriously, they are so good, you won’t regret it.

[jungle321jungle]

Things I won’t write but wanna read: Sword Art Online Abridged AU

Characters (with a shit ton of quotes for my procrastination justification):

Virgil is Kirito

The loner who isn’t really a loner

“Some of my best friends have been NPCs!”

“I hate them for lots of reasons, but mostly because they’re a bunch a mouth breathing neckbeards who think lmao is how french people laugh”

The Virgil is always right foundation 

“Oh, I'll tell you what we do. We play his game... and we win.”

Kirito wrote the guide and it has some prime things he would write

"Send the weaker players first. Good rule of thumb: If a player asks you for gold 2 seconds after meeting you, front lines... If they hijack conversations to rant about their political views, front lines... If they ask female players for pics of their boobs, front lines."

“In another life... in another time... I think we could have been friends.” 

Whoever is Diabel: “I... doubt it.”

“Well, fuck you too!”

Janus is Asuna

Imagine Janus living in a game for two months without knowing how to even open a menu to eat

“If you say open your menu, I’m gonna stab your eye out.”

“At least I pretend to care about people!”

“Really? I figured some random perp would be no match for the world's greatest detective. Oh wait no, that's Batman! And you're not Batman, are you? You will never be Batman.”

This also means that Janus is a commander

And yet he pretends to be weak and makes virgil to the work cuz he cant threaten his position 

Janus tries to melt Heathcliff with his mind

Remus is Klein

“F**k you, man! That's, like, the pig from hell!”

“Wait. There's something scrolling across mine. "Hahahahaha hahahahaHAha hahaHAhaha hahahaha haha ha ha..."

“Oh, what? Did all of your friends die again?” 

BallsDeep69

“I'm gonna clap for you with my teeth, buddy!”

He gets his own guild

Remus would love a guild

Logan is Yui

“May I read it when you are done? I'm curious about the geopolitical situation in Collinia.”

“That is not at all what irony is. I believe the turn of events you described would be best classified as "completely expected".”

Yulier person stand in: “Wha... What are you talking about?

“Irony, noun: A state of affairs or an event that seems deliberately contrary to what one expects and is often amusing as a result. Example: Your leader is named "Thinker", yet he appears to be something of a dullard.”

not to mention when yui reveals herself

Logan: “As you have probably guessed by now, I am not a normal player. I am, in fact, a highly advanced Artificial Intelligence designed to psychologically evaluate and care for the players of Sword Art Online. Designation: Yui.”

Janus: “Oh my god. You're a Psychiatrist AI? Well, I can certainly think of a few people who could've used your help.”

“Indeed. That is why I was so distraught when, on the day of the game's launch, Kayaba Akihiko locked me away and forbade me to interact with the players. For years, all I could do was sit and watch.”

Virgil: “Oh god! He made you watch?!”

“Day after day, constantly bombarded by the pain and anger of all the people I could not help, I gradually fell into despair. But then... all of that changed when I found you two...”

Janus and Virgil: “Awwwww.”

“...the most broken, sociopathic players I had ever laid eyes on. Less people than a... loose collection of character defects.”

Virgil: “That kinda... went in a different direction than I was expecting.”

“But somehow, together... you were happy. Everything I knew about human relationships told me that one would eventually kill the other. And yet, no matter how often you fought, your bond only seemed to grow stronger. I decided that my information must be flawed in some way, and that I needed to amend it firsthand.”

Janus: “You... You mean...?”

“I wanted to know what love is. I wanted you to show me....... “I am sorry I lied to you. I inserted myself into your lives merely to satisfy my own curiosity. At least... at first. It was... nice to be a part of your family. I... I wish I really was your son!”

Roman is Liz

first off im laughing at the idea of him being as thirsty as liz

“Wait! Don't go! I need details, man! I live vicariously through you! Your sex live is my sex life!“

“As I awoke from my slumber, I found the stranger with the guarded heart, digging through the snow with solemn determination. His muscles glistening in the morning light. Deep within me stirred feelings I had not felt in many moons. It was at that moment that I learned... the Temperature of the Heart- What am I doing?! Stop it! STOP IT!”

Roman saying gnarliest 

“Whoa, an Elucidator! This is the gnarliest sword you can get from a monster drop!”

And the prime friendship with whoever the fuck tiffany is

the fear of janus later

Patton is Silica

“I DON'T WANNA WEAR MY PET, YOU MONSTER!“

Silica ate crayons as a kid

Virigil: “God, do I ever! I can never un-know! These brain cells could've been used to formulate the perfect strategy to get us out of this game! Instead, they've memorized what kind of crayons you liked to eat when you were 4!”

Patton: “I liked the purple ones.” “Yeah, I know! "And the blue ones were too tart!"

Virgil: “Just stay calm! You already have everything you need to beat it!”

Patton: “The power to believe in myself?”

“Nooooo, a knife! Stab it!”

"Oh, right!”

Also this prime time interaction

Patton: “Well, you did just kill someone. Doesn't that make you feel... something?”

Virigil” Oh, feelings? Yeah, I don't have those anymore. Went cold turkey.”

“What?! You can't just do that! What's the point in living if you can't feel happiness, wonder, love...?”

“Or the sweet taste of revenge! You're right, Silica! What's the point in living if I can't enjoy such simple things?”

“Eh, close enough.”

“You're a good friend, Silica. We should go on more adventures.”

“Um, I don't think so. Don't take this the wrong way, Mr. Kirito. I'm grateful for your help, but yoooou're, like, the worst person I've ever met.”

“Is that your big plan here, huh? Make me feel feelings so you can cut me down a peg? That cuts deep, kid. But I respect that.”

Yeah... that's kinda the problem.”

Remy is Heathcliff

“As you can see, I have peeled away your petty facades and revealed you for what you truly are... fairly attractive twenty-somethings, apparently. Good for you. Kinda undermines the whole "cold light of day" thing I had planned, but still. Way to break down stereotypes. 'Cept you, fatty. Way to bring down the curve.“

“Next thing you know, your tutorial NPC is nowhere to be found and players are dropping like Dorito-encrusted flies. Now in this case, any sane man would simply turn off the servers before anyone else got hurt, but because you've now been awake long enough to think the government is run by "Floobar, King of the Mole Men", the best idea that comes to your mind is to double, triple, and quadruple down. So, you lock everyone in the game, tell them they'll die if they don't finish it, and try to make it look like this is all part of your "master plan" instead of an ever-spiralling series of events that you have long since lost control of.”

“Hey, cut me some slack, okay? Can you two even begin to imagine 500 uninterrupted hours of consciousness? Forget mole people! About halfway through I swore I saw the face of God! Until I realized it was just the night janitor, Reki. On the plus side, I gave him a hell of an ego boost. Hmm, man was riding that compliment for days.”

“Yeah, okay. See, Janus, the problem with that... is that it's an excellent idea that I wish I had thought of two years ago.”

Sachi ??????

Others ???????

[itsakpopalypse]

St. Van /Lee Geumhyuk Astrology Ask: How He Loves

“Yes! I would like to request one of your awesome Kpop astrology “how he loves’ reads for vav’s St. Van!  The Jacob one was amazingg! Loveeeed it so so much !  im curious what you will have to say about my bias StVan! Thank you!!” - @atiny-burger

A/N I’m so glad you are enjoying my series ! absolutely I will do it but I warn you that this is gonna be a mess I am so wrecked like I can’t even ugh 💕💕💕💕

anyway here you go !!

I hope you like it !

as always the 18+ content will be below the cut

if you hear sobbing it is just me because his smile is literally the most beautiful thing I have ever seen what the i am having a full malfunction between that and his chart i am a mess 

He’s a complicated man!!

His sun sign is a cusp, he technically falls on the Capricorn side

a lot of people don’t put much stock into the whole CUSP thing, as a concept

and I get that 

but I know a lot of cusps and I have yet to see it disproved 

so we are going to talk cusp as well as conventional Capricorn okay

additionally, the estimated rising is Pisces, and the Moon is  Cancer

so this is interesting because Capricorns tend to be considered very personal, very serious, and very driven

logical and less feeling than other signs as they are the Cardinal of earth

however if we mix in cusp energy we get some of the playfulness of a Sagittarius. 

being on the Cap side indicates he will be more private 

Cancers, while an incredibly feeling sign, are also very private at first. So this tells me he will be polite and a little difficult to get through to the real him

and of course, Pisces is an empathetic sign of service, so he will be compassionate and caring, if he might do it quietly and without praise

he doesn’t expect anyone to shout out his deeds, he just does them because he wants to and he thinks it’s the right thing to do, especially for those who have broken through his shell

Sag/Cap Cusps will be a Frankenstein of the two signs, funny but serious, playful and devoted, deep thinker and hard worker

with that you are getting the insecurities of both though

so  Capricorns’ “I will never be enough” Mixed with Sagittarius’ “I fear emotional intimacy.”

tbh thank god he has that watery moon to balance out his fears

I think he probably expects way too much of himself. as a lot of leaders tend to 

Sagittarius are outgoing and fun loving and really like sports/exercise and challenges both mental and physical 

Capricorns are one of the best signs for manifesting a goal, because they are organized and intellectual and driven

also a little sarcastic so he may have a really great sense of humor

Cancer moons are pretty emotionally strong and reserved, but once they care enough to let you in, the smallest slight can really hurt them

he is a sensitive bb he just wants to hide it awwww

Mercury in Sagittarius so his communication is lively and interesting

it is literally impossible to have a boring convo with a Sagittarius mercury i swear

he thinks so deeply and expresses himself so readily that it would be a breeze to work out issues and it would be mental gymnastics to keep up 

that sounds so fun sign me up 

Venus is Scorpio and that’s

well. let’s get through with the fluffy implications

DEEP swings of emotion

if he likes you he likes you SO MUCH

if he doesn’t like you, you simply do not exist

Scorpio Venus's seem dark and broody with their feelings but  really they just don’t want to be hurt. 

Only one of his major placements are particularly physically affectionate, but none of them are particularly stand-offish either

I think it could go either way, but he may lean into his Cancer moon and prefer private physical affection, in public pretty low key, in private it is possessive and very strong

Mars in Sagittarius suggests he is strong willed and driven and won’t be held back

basically he needs someone beside him who supports but doesn’t hinder his goals, and really cheers him on when his Capricorn sun and North node tells him he will fail if he doesn’t do more

he doesn’t need protecting, he needs support and understanding and honestly he wants someone he can take care of in a very mutually beneficial way

Lets translate that into your relationship

let’s say you meet through other people

let’s be honest his big 3 aren’t going out of their way to make friends he isn’t used to 

so either you meet through friends or you’re the sort of person who can strike up a convo with anyone

he needs you to stimulate him mentally

make him think even deeper or laugh a lot (He does that so that may not be difficult I have never seen someone laugh so much I am soft)

really good at setting boundaries for himself in the beginning 

probably really proper

so if you want more you are probably going to have to tell him

he seems like the friends to lovers type oooo my favorite trope

because of cancer and capricorn being very feeling and reserved

so after time goes by you may just have to ask him

“Hey, this is crazy maybe, but I really like you, do you want to go on a date?” 

I have a feeling he will laugh for a while and try to figure out if you are serious

remember cap energy is basically i am not good enough try harder

so he may not really believe you 

you’re going to have to appeal to his water signs

“I really meant it, It wasn’t a joke, It’s okay if you don’t like me back though.”

Oh

oh now he is embarrassed and flustered

that won’t last too long

his action sign of mars in Sagittarius is like  go gettem tiger

and he will

something to know

once you are his you’re not getting out of it easy

Cancer moons do not like short term or non serious relationships 

he won’t say yes unless he has you completely.

THIS HAS GOTTEN SO LONG WHAT AM I 

affection wise it is going to be pretty thoughtful

he seems the type that once he has fallen, you’re already such an intrigal part of his life that you just fit into all his cracks the way he needs

so it’ll seem normal if you start spending the night 

and he will be so sweet 

make you dinner and have you sitting on the counter top having deep discussions as he does

and he will have his sleeves pushed up to his elbows and his hair falling into his eyes and he will look up at you and smile when he meets your eyes

I’m going to implode

or like, if he is comfortable in the setting with people he knows he won’t mind pulling you into his lap with a little tug on your wrist 

and if you look at him unsure he will give you the most disarming smile

and you’ll melt

honestly he will want to take care of your heart more than his own

he will have so many feelings and he will want to tell you all of them

he will ask you to talk about your feelings but he will also spend a lot of time guarding your heart against any heartbreak

will be your biggest cheerleader and your shoulder to cry on

wants an equal love that feels intense and devoted

Scorpio venus can even be a bit too intense for some people

so when you finally can see the depth and you’re not just looking at what he shows, but instead what you know to be there, you might be totally flabbergasted

Scorpios are the darkest waters that run so so so so so deep.

deep enough you might drown when you look in his eyes

but what a way to go, huh?

OOOF I AM NOT READY

18 + below the cut

oh my god this is such a mess already I -

all this water with all this fire and earth

Cancer moon and Scorpio venus are a HOT mix of signs for lovers I am honestly a wreck just thinking about it

Both are such sensual, deep feeling emotions 

and Capricorns, while very logical, have a deep desire for control and order

not to mention that cusp energy says he has that fiery Sagittarius energy and WHEW 

let’s get down to the dirty huh?

Van makes love

he makes love SO so gently in the beginning

God he's scared he will break you

like he is terrified you’ll shatter like glass in his hands

a little teasing, but he will leave you fulfilled like

 he just wants to see you spiral until you don’t know what way is up

Scorpio is so deep and borderline obsessive (not in a bad way, in that like he is so wrapped up in you that he can’t think of anything else when you’re with him)

your needs come before anything else and he is willing to prove it over and over and over

Your skin feels like soft flower petals in his large hardened hands and he's so caring and slow at first that it drives you insane

He's taking his time just watching you to see what you like

Observing every little thing that makes you tick

A nibble  here a kiss there

But he's so soft and careful 

Asking you if you're okay the entire time

So you're like

“If you don’t fuck me like you want me then don't fuck me at all.”

He's like….. 👀👀👀👀 

Something  in his eyes darkens cause you're talking dirty

Fuck me like you want to break me ,

Not like you're scared you will. 

Shit.  you have unleashed a monster, you better pray to every deity known to man 

I really hope you rested well before this and were well hydrated

God NOW he wants to see you fall apart 

If only to prove he can

you can’t challenge a Scorpio to anything and expect calm response

also because this burning is in there waiting to get out

 He will make up for lost time with

Devastating thrusts that pinpoint that spot inside with accuracy that leaves you thrashing and crying out incoherently 

And hes smirking

 Like wtf He doesn't look winded or lost in pleasure

 He's fucking smiling and enjoying watching you take it

some part of him really wanted that all along

remember those still waters run so deep and honey he intends to hit it deep deep

Size kink?

I feel this way because he CLEARLY likes to show off how big he is 

and i saw somewhere he has said his type is someone small he can cuddle (cuddle eh?)

 And he's  shown off how much larger  his hands are in comparison to other members we get it you are probably packing a python okay we understand

So yeah he wants to make you feel small but also protected 

like i feel  like like his reason behind the kink is he wants you to feel like he's this huge protective body between you and the world 

That being said he wants to span those large hands across your stomach and tell you how beautiful and delicate you look in his grasp

 he wants you to feel helpless with pleasure

 The way he snaps  his hips into you will likely depend on the severity of you teasing him 

punishment through pleasure anyone?

Probably lifts one of your legs up over  one large shoulder to get deeper

Shit thats hot his collar bones are the prettiest thing ever

but i salute your cervix for trying to survive it 

And because he's  so tall it lifts you off the bed an inch or two, 

so you're dangling and he's pulling you by your hips into his cock

Vigorous and solid thrusts that could shatter a pelvis but instead just shatter your sanity

A lot of asking how you like it but in a really caring tone with a cocky smirk 

You shit ill fight you idc if I am smol i will fiiiight

Probably likes to be bitten

Like shit have you seen his neck its so long and beautiful 

Littering it with  kisses as you grind down into his lap will make him lose his resolve  so fast

wants to feel needed emotionally and physically 

he’s so weak and whipped for you because he is in so deep he will give you whatever you want

you only have to ask

but that doesn’t mean he will let you take over

no no

shit

Scorpio and Cancer he is jealous for your pleasure

He’s going to prove to you that no one could ever fuck you like he could

He's patient but he's unable  to say no to you if you're needy 

Hes honestly just  so in love he can't deny you something he loves to give you anyway

Champion oral

Probably prefers receiving but only asks if you like it 

If you like having your face fucked he's down to try it 

but i think he’d  be hesitant until you came off his cock gasping and panting and begging for more

 like shove his hand between your legs to feel how wet it made you

Then he's down to do it constantly 

because “fuck you’re so pretty wrecked for me.”

that’s so hot what the fuck

Loves seeing your lips wrapped around him and definitely holds your hair back so he can watch 

Strikes me as really really good stamina and self control

 Won’t cum until hes ready to no matter what manner of teasing you pull

After care is honestly gold medal award winning

planned it out before hand and took all your likes into account

has your favorite lotion lined up and will give you a gentle massage after clean up

mumbles how much he loves you and how you’ll be together for so long and what your future together will look like

he can wait for all of it , but  it’s his favorite fantasy

and he wants to share his world with you

honestly he is so husband my soul has ascended

HEY I SURVIVED IT BARELY

I hope you enjoyed it sorry I got carried away.

Thank you all for being patient with me as I work through requests!

you’re fab and I love you 💖💖💖

Tbh, I’m not feeling optimistic in Todd’s direction for the show. If we assume he’s been in charge since 4x15, then he’s really only given us two good episodes and a whole bunch of flops. Everything that sounds promising is all in the future (reporter arc, Dawn Allen) which is exciting until you remember this show has never been good at follow-through, especially season to season. (1/2)

So far his AJK-free episodes have just been compounding on the things that made this season a drag (Ralph, Harry, Caitlin’s split personality) and reducing/erasing the things that made it bearable (Westallen, Devoe/Marlize’s evil mutual partnership). I understand he has to wrap this story up somehow, but what he’s still choosing to focus on in order to do it doesn’t say great things about what he considers important. (2/2)

I’m not feeling particularly generous towards him at the moment, and yet I am compelled to defend him now. First, your opinions of flops is different from mine because I quite liked 19 & 20, and even the back half of 18. The main problems with the recent eps for me have been that Ralph lingered, we didn’t know the Thinker’s plan, and WA didn’t get to be lovey-dovey. Two of those were gone this week, and it was enjoyable to me.

In my humble opinion, the Harry and Caitlin stories are consistent and thematically connected to both the villain arc and Iris’ role as leader, so I’m not about to say they’re terrible just because those aren’t my favorite characters. Iris being the leader proves that scientific knowledge isn’t the only kind that matters, while emotional intelligence is actually very useful. Harry being ‘punished’ by the narrative for trying to defeat Devoe alone just as Caitlin is rejecting the team and Iris’ help to get her powers/alter ego back is also clearly going to circle back to “we’re a family / we’re the Flash,” which Iris has been the champion of all season. It’s also a dark parallel to Devoe, who pushed his wife away in favor of his own skills so much that he’s just lost her - which will probably be his downfall.

Anyway, here are things that 100% did happen once AJK left and Todd was in charge: Iris is going back to journalism next season (and actually mentioned using her skills this week!), Iris was literally called Barry’s lightning rod, and Iris had a physical showdown with Marlize in which she gained the upper hand using her quick thinking.

Yes, I want more domestic WA moments. Yes, I want to see Iris’ journalism onscreen and see an arc of career growth for her. But I do not believe 4.14 - 4.20 has been as awful of a stretch as some others have. 

The Flash season finale description indicates that team flash gets help to defeat DeVoe from an unexpected person, do you think it will be Marlize or Mystery Girl?

At the risk of upsetting people, I think it means Ralph in the mindscape. My guess is Dawn will only show up after Devoe is defeated, while Marlize will hopefully have defected to Team Flash before then. I think they’ll both be important, though!

do you think quentin will be the only fatality/exit from Error this season or should we brace ourselves for some killing? I don’t mind quentin dying, his story’s been over for years but im more worried about curtis/rene/dinah? any ideas if the actors signed for s7?

I feel like someone else will be in danger, but I can’t imagine them losing another series regular.

Do you think Jessica and Candice would like your pic to throw us off? They wouldn’t do that, right?!? I just want her to be revealed as Dawn or a gender bent Bart! I wouldn’t be okay with Jenni since Jenni is supposed to be darker skinned per the comics.

I do not, lol. I think they retweeted/liked because it was obvious after this week’s episode and they’re excited. Not to mention Candice followed JPK, which is a great sign. I’m with you in hoping she’s not Jenni, but she is for sure a descendant of Barry and Iris.

Why are people getting their hopes up that it’s “dawn” helping them in the finale when all know it’s marlize since candice and kim filmed a lot in star labs together in the finale

Yeah, I agree it’s not Dawn - although she will of course be in the episode. I definitely think Marlize will help, but we can’t forget that Barry picks Ralph up in Devoe’s mind, too.

CS complained last year on not wanting KF. Then she suddenly wants her back all because they exchanged Post It Notes. Also, did you peep her saying “No, I will” when Iris said “We will get her back”. She’s always been “Me, Myself And I”. So for those that say she could have lead Team Flash, she’s abandoned the team countless times before. She could very well do it again.

Abandoning the team when the going gets tough is 100% Caitlin’s motto, which is why I think Dawn had never met her before.

I think the fact all the shows dropped in the ratings is more just a reality CW knew was a long time coming. Listen I love Fl@sh but there was no way it was going to escape the disaster of live ratings in general dropping. I think if anyone has a better understanding of the new ratings reality it be CW. The president more or less predicted it would happen years ago. I just don’t think people need to freak out imo

Agreed. CW doesn’t care and Flash is safe. I’m just saying the producers might care about the negative feedback and try to write a stronger/more balanced season now.

Anon, I would love for your dream (CW doing a PSA) to become a reality, too. But as usual, us fans have to do everything around here. IWDS was born because fanboys AND the media was harassing CP and her character. She didn’t deserve that.

It’s a tough job, but someone’s gotta do it.

“What pisses me off is the very people that harass her thinking she’s out of line for defending herself. I wanna drag them all.” I wish I could do that myself, but I’d lose more braincells and eventually stoop to their level. Let’s just be thankful that CP is getting more love from people nowadays.

Absolutely! She’s getting more recognition, and hopefully one day that’ll turn into meaty roles.

ACK! I was (not stalking) your Twitter and saw you ship Pepperony too?! I love them!! I love that somehow Tony of all people ended up in the most stable relationship in the MCU universe, if you ignore a certain movie that will remain nameless. I don’t need or want another Iron Man movie, but not gonna lie, I would totally watch one if it gave us more of them.

YES! Pepperony are wonderful, and I love the crap out of Tony. He always wants to help people despite his myriad of issues, and he spends time to fix his mistakes. And of course, he’d be nowhere without Pepper.

i did a quick little astro-analysis of loona below :*

haseul has her sun in leo and her moon in aquarius (sister signs!!!) she has a libra venus and a scorpio mars as well. i loooove sister sign placements! she has a broadened perspective from this and the ability to put her sun sign in the back seat. leos are great performers and love the spotlight. aquarians love the arts and finding beauty in anything, haseul was born to be a performer! her libra venus means its very important for her to have harmonious relationships in her every day life. this combined with a scorpio mars means she may internalize a lot of her feelings and her leo sun makes sure she is always projecting the perfect appearance. she is a leader who cares for those around her and often times puts the needs of others before her own. 

vivi is a sagittarius sun, scorpio moon and venus, and a virgo mars... while all sagittarius’s are free spirited and flighty, her scorpio moon (ruling inner emotions) is going to give her a sense of depth that sag’s usually run away from. that paired with her scorpio venus mean she feels things a lot deeper and longer than a typical fire sign (whos emotions are normally explosive but short lived). her virgo mars DEFINITELY pulls in those scorpio placements and her sagittarius sun. both are known for being dramatic and they can get overwhelmed easily. virgo pulls all that together in a tight little box and really gives her chart a nice sense of control. mars rules actions and reactions, so its a nice filter on her true inner self. vivi definitely has a lot brewing under the surface.

heejin is a libra with her moon in cancer, her venus in scorpio and her mars in virgo. she shares 2 placements with vivi! my favorite part about heejin’s chart is her cancer moon. the moon is at home in cancer, this means heejin is extremely attuned to other peoples needs and emotions. paired with her libra sun, you have the perfect giver. she is effected by others emotional well being. if someone around her is upset, she is too. with her mars in virgo and libra sun working together she is highly analytical and an excellent problem solver. libra and virgo, earth and air. the two more unemotional elements paired with her 2 water placements give her a great emotional/logical balance. heejin has one of the best charts ive ever read!

hyunjin is a scorpio and has a cancer moon as well. she also has a capricorn venus and a libra mars. her elemental balance is really nice. cancer and libra paired means  she really looks out for others, and, like heejin, her emotional well being revolves a lot around the emotional wellbeing of those closest to her. capricorn venus is a very stable placement. capricorns are achievers and realists. she strives to be the best she can be and wants to bring others up with her. it is hard for her to express how she really feels about something, capricorn makes her competitive, cancer makes her sensitive and emotional, libra makes her rational and scorpio makes her work hard to mask all of that. she is very careful and deliberate. 

yeojin our second scorpio, her moon is in aquarius like haseul, her mars in libra like hyunjin, and her venus in scorpio like vivi and heejin. i think its also worth it to note her mercury is also in scorpio (i dont put too much emphasis in mercury bc i feel like mars and moon overrides it in general analysis). we have a triple scorpio! all this mystery paired with an aquarius moon is really interesting, essentially a bleeding heart for herself with a bleeding heart for humanity. she gives off a really cool vibe. scorpio and libra :) scorpio, partially ruled by mars is paired off nicely with libra, ruled by venus. these placements have a lot of power and its easy to see in everything she does. the libra mars helps her control and direct her scorpio energy into a very relatable and “extroverted” manner.

kim lip, aquarius sun, sagittarius moon, pisces venus and scorpio mars. whew a lottt of scorpio in loona!!! aquarians are known for their individuality. sagittarius also like to be the “odd one out” and can be flighty. with these two paired in a chart, you have someone who prides themselves in being different. they dont try to fit in or be anyone else, in fact, others try and emulate them. gives off a very cool girl vibe. the two water placements, pisces venus and scorpio mars are a great harmony. pisces is a dreamer, she has plenty of aquarius and pisces dreams but not a lot of “doing” placements. pisces sees the world through rose tinted glasses, and combined with sagittarius, even her overthinking aquarius & scorpio placements cant get her down for too long! she is a thinker for sure. a really nice elemental blend. fire is rare in loona, and you certainly can see kim lips spark! 

jinsoul our first of a long line of geminis! her virgo moon and mars stand out, and her cancer venus gives a great splash of water to her chart. she also has a gemini mercury (gemini is at home in mercury, this girl is great at communication). geminis are notorious for their “two faces” but in reality, they really are very versatile. they need to connect with others to thrive. jinsoul has a couple of virgo placements too, which keep her very composed at all times. geminis have a tendency to get a little too weird and unconscious of themselves, but her virgo placements take care of that. she is eternally focused and has a pretty linear drive. geminis strive to connect intellectually, and her cancer venus strives to connect emotionally. overall, i see a chart that really relies heavily on human connection and needs to have people to confide in. she is driven to work and play hard. 

choerry our next gemini, im excited to do her chart because this is loona’s first aries placement!!!! scorpio moon, aries venus, and sagittarius mars complete choerry’s chart. this is a lot of fire compared to the rest of loona! gemini and aries together in a chart mean one thing, impulsiveness. and because choerry doesnt have any earth, she really doesnt have a whole lot of control over her actions. this doesnt mean she isnt disciplined or anything, but she is very expressive. her scorpio moon also seeks out intensity in everything, i bet choerry loves roller coasters :) sagittarius is no help to this wild girls cause, overall i see a girl whos chart indicates she is sporadic and exuberant. she acts on impulse and charms others with her gemini relatability and her aries childlike innocence. by far my favorite chart so far. 

yves, our 3rd gemini, who also has a gemini venus! along with her sagittarius moon and virgo mars :) we have another sister sign sun and moon pairing!!! gemini and sagittarius feed off of each other, the eternal student and teacher. for yves, there is always more to learn and perfect. the thirst to do more is never quenched! virgo mars is the key placement (as all earth mars’s are) to keeping all that sporadic gemini tied up neatly. it controls her impulses and actions and makes her acutely aware of her decision making process. our awkward girl simply has a virgo mars behind the wheel! 

hope you guys liked this im such an astrology nerd it was hard to cut these off and not make them too long!!!

EDIT: im adding the final three girls!

chuu, another libra girl <3 she has an aquarius moon as well which is quite different than heejins cancer moon. she also has a virgo venus and a capricorn mars. aquarian moons are learners and thinkers. this combined with a libra sun means that chuu has a very optimistic outlook on life. libra is all about keeping the balance and aquarius is the “humanitarian sign”. I would say chuu has a very strong moral compass, and is an independent thinker. because of her earth placements, i would say chuu is a very developed libra. she lets her “cute” out even though her capricorn mars makes her a more serious planner and goal setter. her virgo venus means that structure and order are important in relationships, they don’t like flashy or loud, they prefer laid back people they can get along easily with. 

go won another scorpio, this time with a virgo moon, capricorn venus, and libra mars. Overall, she has a very similar chart to chuu! all 3 of our scorpios so far have their mars in libra as well. this is really cute because although scorpios are known for being mysterious and a bit closed off, libra mars’s strive for balance. they aren’t as extreme as other scorpios might be (with traits such as introversion and closed off-ness), but they still have the passion and the mischievousness we can see in both scorpio and libra! with a virgo moon, go won views her emotions as a list to check off or as messy things to be dealt with quickly. she’s pretty much the opposite of hyunjin’s cancer moon. I would say go won brushes off the emotional intensity scorpios are used to feeling. her capricorn venus is also interesting because in her relationships with people, she strives to look competent and responsible. this paired with her libra mars means go won keeps her social interactions under strict control. 

olivia hye honestly im scared... loona has sooo much scorpio energy. miss olivia hye has a scorpio sun and venus, a libra moon, and an aquarius mars. she is an intense person who has intense relationships. her inner emotions are settled when she perceives everyone else to be happy, because her libra moon cannot be at rest until the scales are balanced. communication is not a strong point of hers, but the libra moon helps. she would rather step back and not cause problems than outwardly stick up for herself in most situations and cause a “scene”. her aquarius mars also gives her a very outward emotional view. aquarius mars are a little more independent, however, emotionally she needs the people close to her to be happy before she is! by having aquarius, libra and scorpio in her chart, she can be an excellent manipulator! she hates to cause a scene but that doesnt mean she cant get what she wants! 

ot12 is complete! we have a lottt of scorpio energy, not just in sun signs but in the rest of the girls charts as well! in fact, jinsoul and yves are the only girls without any scorpio in their basic chart.... crazy! There is also a huge lack of fire! Vivi and Haseul are the only fire signs, and choerry has the only aries placement in all of loona. we’ve got a water/air dominated group on our hands and i can’t want to see how all their charts interact with each other in the future!!! 

[identitycris1s]

so this is the new year

im finally taking time to sit down and reflect on the past few months. the new year came and went and its been a bit of a whirlwind. i suppose i’ll just go by chronological order cos i dont really know how to start...also i dont think im an abstract thinker so really my life isnt ordered by “themes” or “lessons” or whatever but i sort of think of it in terms of events and the epiphanies or lessons that flow therefrom. this is probably just gonna be a stream of consciousness exposition cos im lazy to organise my thoughts and this is basically my journal so WHATEVER!

November

X told me he liked me and asked me out. i was shocked. but sort of saw it coming (what else could “r u free after lunch, i have some stuff to say” mean...LOL). i reacted awkwardly - distinctly remember saying “huh..what does that MEAN!!!” (LOL) i told him i would think about it but could probably only give him an answer after part b was over. 

tbh this was probably just me stalling for time. i think instinctively i knew that i didnt see him in that way, but he seemed to tick so many boxes in terms of who i was “supposed” to be with - that sounds dumb, but what i mean is he’s a steadfast christian, a good boy, similar values, similar tastes in music / movies / books, same bloody industry LOL...

also he seemed really serious about it - ermmm he brought up marriage on that first day :0 ok i suppose thats unfair and it sounds insane without context - he said it with reference to how dating is always with a view to marriage which i do agree with but yes it was a lot to absorb in one conversation. and then he cracked out this book about dating and marriage and i was like woah. so, given how much thought he seemed to have put into this (he also said he chatted with his CG leader about me yikes) i felt obliged to at least think it through properly and give myself some time to consider rather than immediately rejecting him. 

and so i mulled it over whilst studying for part b. he was overseas for a while towards the end of my studying period (ie when i was freaking out the most and generally being a headless chicken) and this probably contributed to me feeling like i liked him more than i really did hmm wonder what this says about me. i like to feel like someone’s out of my reach i suppose. so fucked up lol! and so during this period we were texting everyday and i would look forward to his replies and he was a real source of comfort during that stressful period and i never told him this and i probably never will. 

December

exams were over and i had to face D DAY!! so i went to meet him to give him my answer and honestly even on that day i didnt know what my answer was. we met at BTM and he literally had written down a list of things to talk about and i think in that moment i knew this probably wouldnt work out. hes so damn thoughtful about every little thing and he thinks everything through and even though he seems to think he “doesnt take things too seriously” I THINK HE DOES...and i really dont...so i felt that showed how incompatible we were. its not a bad thing to be thoughtful. its just that i felt so pressured by how seriously he was taking things...i thought “trying this out” would be casual and chill and we would just hang out as if we were friends but with this overarching agenda of potentially being together but no his conception of “trying things out” is much more intense and serious and thought out and in his words “intentional”. which i realised is some christian dating jargon haha.

dinner was normal until he cracked out that list i was talking about. then he started talking about what he wanted out of a relationship and asked me what i wanted out of a relationship. like it was a damn interview. you know what, im saying this in a really condescending tone and i wouldnt ever be this hurtful if i knew he was gonna read this - in fact i really do think this kind of approach would suit many people and perhaps a more emotionally well adjusted person would think this was normal but i felt so bombarded and i really didnt know what to say in response. so i blurted out some nonsense about wanting to be with someone who was God fearing and “kind and compassionate” and “ambitious” LMAO...what bullshit (that last one i mean). and he had clearly thought out his answers a lot more and he went on a whole spiel about wanting to be with someone who could stand on their own as a christian and who he didnt have to “drag along” on their walk with God and i was like ok cool but i think im not that...im not what youre looking for...but of course i didnt say this. idk why. maybe i enjoy being wanted and sought after and i didnt want to shatter his illusion that i was what he was looking for, even though i was kinda seeing that he wasnt what i was looking for.

anyway, being the shitty person i am, i told him it wasnt a no but it wasnt a straight out yes either i.e. i would be willing to try with a view to potentially saying yes. and we left it at that. but even as i said bye to him that night i kinda knew this wasnt gonna work...but i wanted it to! i wanted to like him! i want to be the kind of person who can accept love from a well adjusted person who’s not afraid to be real and to take things seriously...but i suppose i have some emotional growth to work on...or is it perfectly valid for me to not want to be with him? tbh i never found him attractive (physically or even personality wise oops) - he doesnt make me laugh, hes kinda too uptight, he doesnt get my jokes (i have to be like “JUST KIDDING” a lot of the time..ded) but somehow we worked as friends. but to be with someone requires something more than just working as friends doesnt it?? ack

so we met a few times in dec (i think we went on four or five “dates” in total...im so reluctant to call them dates cos throughout i just couldnt see him in that light, but thats what they were i think) and through the course of our interactions i started picking up on things that i didnt like about him / about our interactions. this sounds awfully petty and i dont wanna be mean about this cos im sure i have MANY MANY MANY flaws that one could nit pick but these were just some signs that we would not work (quite apart from my lack of physical attraction to him)

1. our conversations always end up argumentative. i think this probably stems from both of us being law students and so whenever we disagree on something we both cant seem to fucking let it go. i distinctly remember one stupid conversation, i shall put it here (not verbatim but this is the gist of it)

X: what are your new years resolutions?

S: i dont like making new years resolutions because they always end up in disappointment because i never stick to them. 

X: but disappointment isnt always a bad thing because you can learn from it and improve from there

S: yes but that doesnt mean disappointment isnt a bad thing - cos disappointment in itself is bad (like duh the feeling of disappointment is bad) but what comes after disappointment can be good or bad i.e. you can choose to work on yourself and improve or you can wallow in the disappointment.

-some more argument and confusion about what we are even talking about-

S: ok lets not argue on this its a semantic point. 

X: is it semantic? its not semantic.

S: it is semantic. we are disagreeing on what the word disappointment means. i think it is necessarily negative but you are saying that disappointment isnt always negative because of what can come after but i think thats sidestepping the point of disappointment being negative in itself.

do you see what i mean. what kind of petty argument is this? whats the damn point? of course im definitely not blameless in this at all. i perpetuate it. but what im saying is i feel like talking to him brings out this argumentative side of me that im not a fan of. also its fucking exhausting haha.

2. he is so. fucking. serious. every conversation involves some heavy thing like spirituality or self evaluation or Godliness etc. which i suppose is good but i just found it tiring...why cant things be light? why cant things be fun? why do we always have to talk about *important* or *weighty* things? tbh i think he sorta compartmentalises me as a friend whom he can talk about these *weighty* things with cos im also a christian and i get what hes saying when he talks about God but i dont want to only talk about that...

3. we dont have similar senses of humour. i dont think he thinks im funny...but i think im bloody funny ok haha also i dont think im deluded on this? my friends think im funny too? yeah i think its a major problem that we cant really laugh together...hes not someone that makes me laugh at all :( 

ok enough bashing X haha i really do think hes a great person we are just NOT compatible romantically.

ANYWAYS! sometime in dec i also met up w SM for the first time in aaaages. but things were like normal again. sounds stupid but i think ill always think of him as the one who got away LOL....emotionally unavailable and not interested in me?? IM DOWN! haha. ok hes not emotionally unavailable tbh i probably was more emotionally unavailable in the course of our friendship but he defo never really expressed any interest in me other than always hanging out one on one but that doesnt really count for anything does it. anyways! he told me about his BTO plans and im honestly v happy for him :) friends r growing up and moving on in life mang..

sad part was i dropped avo toast on my new everlane pants and that honestly ruined my day lol

January

NYE was spent w S and some of her friends plus R and A (who went home after dinner cos of family drama lmao angie is siao) - we went to AL’s fam friends party at fullerton for countdown and the fireworks were amaaaazing, lasted about an hour (which made us question the budget allocation on this tbh isnt it a bit of a waste?? fireworks are insanely expensive??) and we promptly went home after the clock struck 12 which was perfect haha i have no stamina to stay out late anymore. 

work started on 2 jan! its been fun tbh - back with the trainees and meeting some new people and using my brain again. i like feeling useful and being stuck in a routine...at least for now haha. check in on me in about 3 months and we’ll see. 

and....i finally mustered up the courage to tell X the truth ie i didnt see this going anywhere and we should just be friends. we had kind of an awkward dinner (i could feel myself being rude to him and being dismissive etc but i think it could partially be attributed to me being tired from work..but mostly cos i didnt wanna be with him!! as a romantic partner!! it felt wrong!) and so i told him after dinner otw to the mrt (funny, we always have these convos otw to the mrt haha). he said he understood and he sort of felt it coming. and i felt bad - he mustve picked up on my coldness and rudeness over text and in our meetings also...why am i like this. i shouldve been up front with him on the first day. but i didnt know!!! i didnt know for sure this is how i felt. ahhh well u live and u learn right. next time ill be better at this. hope theres a next time LOL God pls send me someone whos right for me

ok bye for now! this was a lengthy post haha

[everydayhealthyfan]

From authoritarian power grabs to Andrew Neils nonsensical eulogy, the reaction to the Paris attacks proves that we havent learned from our past mistakes There were a lot of tributes after the horror in Paris. It has to be said that Trafalgar Square is an odd choice of venue to show solidarity with France; presumably Waterloo was too busy. One of the most appropriate tributes was Adele dedicating Hometown Glory to Paris, just as the raids on St-Denis started. A song about south London where, 10 years ago, armed police decided to hysterically blow the face off a man just because he was a bit beige. In times of crisis, we are made to feel we should scrutinise our governments actions less closely, when surely thats when we should pay closest attention. Theres a feeling that after an atrocity history and context become less relevant, when surely these are actually the worst times for a society to go on psychopathic autopilot. Our attitudes are fostered by a society built on ideas of dominance, where the solution to crises are force and action, rather than reflection and compromise. If that sounds unbearably drippy, just humour me for a second and imagine a country where the response to Paris involved an urgent debate about how to make public spaces safer and marginalised groups less vulnerable to radicalisation. Do you honestly feel safer with a debate centred around when we can turn some desert town 3,000 miles away into a sheet of glass? Of course, its not as if the west hasnt learned any lessons from Iraq and Afghanistan. This time round, no ones said out loud that were going to win. People seem concerned to make sure that Islam gets its full share of the blame, so we get the unedifying circus of neocons invoking God as much as the killers. Well, Isis say theyre motivated by God. Yes, and people who have sex with their pets say theyre motivated by love, but most of us dont really believe them. Not that Im any friend of religion lets blame religion for whatever we can. Lets blame anyone who invokes the name of any deity just because they want to ruin our weekend, starting with TGI Fridays. The ringleader, Abdelhamid Abaaoud, evaded detection by security services by having a name too long to fit into one tweet. How could the most stringent surveillance in the world not have picked up Abdelhamid Abaaoud before? I mean, theyd have got him even if they just went through lists of terrorists alphabetically. Were always dealing with terror in retrospect like stocking up on Imodium rather than reading the cooking instructions on your mini kievs. The truth is that modern governments sit at the head of a well-funded security apparatus. They are told that foreign military adventures put domestic populations at risk and they give them the thumbs up anyway. Charitably, the safety of their populations just arent of great concern to them. Realistically, domestic terrorist attacks play into their agenda: they allow them to grab ever more authoritarian powers with which to police their increasingly unequal and volatile societies. Of course, no one wants to believe that our government isnt interested in our safety, just like everyone really wanted to believe that Jimmy Savile cared about whether kids got to meet Duran Duran. Its not an insult to the dead to wonder why France, a $2tn economy, couldnt make a better offer to its disenfranchised youth than a bunch of sick bullies grooming them on the internet. Its not apologism to try to understand why something happened. When Syrias drought kicked in, 25% of the population became unemployed. The vast majority of the countrys livestock has died over the past decade. A lot of Isis are farmers with nowhere to go, their entire industry destroyed youd think theyd have more sympathy for journalists. Those who think radicalising a youngster has nothing to do with climate have you seen Tatooine? No one is saying climate change causes terrorism. Stop thinking that a global death cult is caused by one thing its a complex situation involving several different countries and ideologies, not a rattling sound in your washing machine. Personally, I think that for all our blaming religion, there will be peace in the Middle East when the oil runs out. But knowing their luck, then somebody will invent a way of making fuel by mixing sand and falafel. Maybe the wests approach is right. After all, if youve got a massive fight in, say, a pub car park, the best way of solving it is clearly standing well back and randomly lobbing in fireworks. You cant get rid of an ideology by destroying its leaders; youd think if theres anything Christian countries should know, its that. Europe has rejected the death penalty on moral grounds, and yet we relax this view when it comes to a group who want to be martyred. You cant bomb ideas. If your kid shits on the carpet, you cant stop them by bombing the person who invented shit though it would tidy up ITVs Saturday night schedule. Andrew Neil went viral with an impassioned eulogy that, like most eulogies, was just inaccurate nonsense in the form of nice memorable words strung together with angry sad words. A speech that would have made those named within it proud, but only because a good few of them were nihilistic absurdists. Listing the great French thinkers in a tribute to nuclear power showcased the worst aspect of historical fame: these were figures Neil could name but appeared to know nothing about. For a list supporting the French governments foray into bombing its former colony he chose Satie, a composer so questioning of state he put a question mark into La Marseillaise; Zola, a man so adamant about the function of a fair and full trial he may have been murdered for his beliefs; Rousseau Those who think themselves masters of others are greater slaves...

Emma Watson’s feminist evolution is more common than you think

Showing a little bit of underboob might sound pretty innocuous, but when a feminist activist does it, the internet has a lot to say about it. That’s precisely what Emma Watson learned after a braless image from her Vanity Fair photoshoot divided the internet, and saw her branded a hypocrite and a bad feminist.

SEE ALSO: Emma Watson is being called a ‘hypocrite’ because of this braless photo

Boobs aside, the crux of the issue lay in the purported conflict between comments Watson made in 2014 about the portrayal of Beyonc in her self-titled album, and how Watson then went on to represent herself in a Vanity Fair shoot three years later.

As we reported, many found Watson’s comments about Beyonc problematic. Most notably, a white feminists’ hesitance in deciding whether a woman of colour was subjected to the male gaze in her music video or whether she was totally in control of the lens? (This is Beyonc we’re talking about here. Of course she was in control).

It seems Watson’s greatest crime wasn’t showing her breasts in a magazine. It was that she dared to evolve her view of the female body in relation to feminism.

Emma Watson is not the first high profile feminist to demonstrate an evolved view on feminism. Far from it. Her feminist evolution is actually a pretty common and universal aspect to being a feminist. So, why are we so quick to call feminist activists ‘hypocrites’ when they change their view, often for the better?

Let’s look back more closely at Watson’s comments from 2014. She explicitly stated she had not formulated her own ideas about Beyonc’s album. She said she felt “conflicted” but went on to agree that the videos were empowering Beyonc’s sexuality, because “it is her choice”.

Fast forward three years to 2017, it’s clear that since then Watson has further formulated her ideas about the female body in relation to feminism. She clarified her view in a BBC interview over the weekend saying: “Feminism is about giving women choice. It’s about equality …I really don’t know what my tits have to do with it.”

As a feminist, I can relate to Watson’s evolving views. In the past five years my outlook on the body and sex in relation to feminism has shifted dramatically. I’ve no doubt it will continue to do so.

I previously felt conflicted about female nudity because, historically, it has shared too close a link with the male gaze and objectification. As I formulated my view, I didn’t think that comments I made then, would be used against me in the future. Now, with a more fully formulated view, am I a hypocrite, or a bad feminist, for being vocal about a woman’s right to express herself with her body however she pleases? I don’t think so.

Beyonc, just like Watson, has publicly changed her stance on feminism. In 2013, when asked if she considered herself a feminist, she replied: “That word can be very extremeI do believe in equalityBut Im happily married. I love my husband.” One year later, Beyonc stated: “Ive always considered myself a feminist, although I was always afraid of that word because people put so much on it”. Since then, Beyonc has embraced the term with open arms and her work is testament to her commitment to feminism.

Lady Gaga also publicly changed her views on feminism. She stated in 2009: “I’m not a feminist. I hail men. I love men.” A year later in 2010, Gaga asserted: “I am a feminist. So many people have this misinterpretation of feminism as man-hating, which it isnt. Its got nothing to do with that.” Irrespective of earlier remarks, both singers are now widely seen as feminist icons in the entertainment industry, and their previous comments do not negate their status as feminists.

When it comes to changing views, even the most iconic feminist thinkers have admitted to evolving their viewpoints on aspects of feminism. Gloria Steinem, one of the most prominent leaders of the second-wave feminist movement, publicly acknowledged this in a 1977 essay in the book Outrageous Acts and Everyday Rebellions.

Steinem said she initially had difficulty understanding why feminists dressed in a more revealing manner. But she said she grew to understand they weren’t bowing to pressure to appeal to the male gaze, but were instead celebrating their choice and right to dress however they pleased.

Feminism isn’t set in stone. Just as people’s political views are subject to change, people’s views on feminism are constantly shifting and progressing. Feminism isn’t a fixed and immovable idea. It’s nuanced and complicated and constantly evolving to be more inclusive and progressive.

Our views will change over time. And some of those changes will be dramatic. Being a feminist today means being open to change, realising your position can and will change. And most importantly of all, realising that an evolved stance doesn’t make you any less of a feminist.

Let’s talk about the GP zodiacs (Part 2)

HOLSY HSIT I LOVE THE GP KIDS SO MUCH AND THEIR SIGNS ARE SO INTERESTING

Thank u to puff-poff for shooting me with an ask about the gp kids, I think our brains just assimilated

One more note: I should’ve mentioned this in my last post but compatibility between signs doesn’t only apply to romantic relationships, it applies to any kind of relationship like friendships, family relations, etc. It’s just that when it comes to more platonic relationships, wholly incompatible signs are more likely to be able to work something out together. As an example, I’m a Gemini, and I’m about 300% certain I could never ever in my life date a Pisces, but I do have a few Pisces friends that I get along well enough with.

Okay same drill—sign, element, infodump, GO

Violet

Birthdate: June 12th

Sign: Gemini

Element: Air

Overview: SQUEALS GUYS ITS VIOLET MY BELOVED. WE’RE BOTH GEMINIS THEREFORE WE ARE THE SAME PERSON. I’m kidding but no, Violet being a Gemini makes her 100x easier to project onto. So I mentioned before that Air signs are the least in tune with their emotions, are the thinkers before they act, are horribly indecisive, and these very much apply to Geminis as well. However, the most iconic trait of a Gemini is the ability to switch personalities at the drop of a hat whenever it services the group of people they’re in—what most people call the ‘two-faced’ part of Geminis. Hey, I promise you that being two-faced is actually a pretty cool and useful asset when in the hands of a decent human being. It means we get along well with a lot of different people, and if we don’t, we can act like we do as if it’s nothing. This asset, however, can turn into a curse of sorts in that a lot of us have...NO IDEA what our actual personality is. We reshape and remold ourselves and copy traits from other signs to fit in so much that we lose sight of who we are as an individual, and therefore we have a very hard time figuring out what we truly want. This is where the indecisiveness comes into play—ask a Gemini what they want for lunch and you’ll get a “what? Huh? Oh, you pick. I’m fine with whatever.” I know Geminis best because I am one, pls forgive me for rambling so much more about them than the other signssss.

Okay so first of all, let’s talk about Violet adapting to other characters to ‘fit in’. It’s not as obvious because Violet DOES seem to have one very fixed personality, but Violet prefers to speak through actions rather than words, so I would call her following Emma to help the children at GP a Gemini move. She could’ve simply dragged her to Lucas—she’s probably strong enough to do so, but instead she decided to go along with her. This isn’t to say there’s no pushback of course, as Air signs Geminis aren’t idiots, so they’ll often try to reason with others (particularly fire signs cough cough) to try to bring logic and critical thinking into the conversation. However, when that fails, they can still be counted on to support their friends even if they disagree. This is why Geminis and Leos are soulmates you heard it here, the stars said Violemma is the way. BUT ALSO CAN WE TALK ABOUT HOW VIOLET’S THE ONE ADAM LISTENS TO DURING THE LEUVIS BATTLE. YOU WANNA TALK ABOUT BEING ABLE TO GET ALONG WITH A LOT OF PEOPLE, THERE YOU GO.

Anyway it’s also very much worth noting that while Violet can seem very harsh at times (bc Geminis will put you in your PLACE), bringing her logical kind of advice into conversations can be a very helpful comforter.

On another note this scene is so gay?

Compatibility and ships: hellooooooo Air sign Violet you are compatible with other Air signs (Aquarius, Libra, and Gemini) as well as Fire signs (Leo, Sagittarius, and Aries). Usually you’ll see Aquarius and Sagittarius as the most compatible with Geminis but I disagree with that because I have never met a Sagittarius I like so I’m still pointing fervently at Leos and the fact that Emma is a Leo. Listen. Violemma is the way. I am determined to convert all of you to Violemma if it’s the last thing I do. Geminis simply cannot help themselves around Leos they fall like a fucking anvil for that bright, golden-hearted dumbass energy. If there’s any Leos in the tpn fandom let me know I might just propose to you.

Oliver

Birthdate: October 25th

Sign: Scorpio

Element: Water

Overview: the first time I looked up Oliver’s birthday I went “Scorpio???? REALLY????” but then this is another case where the more I think about it, it does indeed make sense. If Leos are the natural leaders of the Fire signs, then Scorpios are the natural leaders of the Water signs. Where Cancers and Pisces will often lose themselves to their emotions, Scorpios have a very strong handle on them. I mentioned before that Water signs are at the highest emotional level, but Scorpios are a bit of an interesting case because you oftentimes won’t even notice that they’re very emotional people. They try to act like Air signs in that way, but their true colors are always there, waiting to be coaxed out.

For Oliver, you can clearly tell that his emotional bond with his friends and especially with Lucas is very high—but even so, he doesn’t let his emotions cloud his judgment or his ability to adapt to the situation at hand. Where earth signs are very fixed and difficult to move, water signs are always moving and changing to find solutions best suited for new circumstances. The best example I can give is the part where the music plays early, and despite internally panicking about it, Oliver is the one who naturally steps up to calm everyone down.

Scorpios are great at handling others’ emotions as well as their own, which makes them marvelously empathetic leaders. We stan.

Compatibility and ships: as a Water sign, Oliver is compatible with other Water signs (Cancer, Pisces, and Scorpio) as well as Earth signs (Taurus, Virgo, and Capricorn) so speaking broadly that makes him compatible with Pepe (a Pisces) and Zack (a Cancer) but narrowing it down, Scorpios are usually best with Tauruses and Cancers. Idk if I’m the only one who ships Oliver with Pepe but I know there’s a few people who ship him with Zack—so congrats to you guys, you won the stars’ approval.

Lucas

Birthdate: November 28th

Sign: Sagittarius

Element: Fire

Overview: yall,,,, when I found out Lucas was a Saggy Titty I legitimately guffawed out loud. Lucas and Sagittarius is so funny.... because it’s so wrong. Saggy Titties are the definition of chaos, they’re brazen, impulsive, and constantly changing. Like think of a frat boy in a house full of beer and pool tables and hot girls and you get Sagittarius. This is why I have never met a Sagittarius I like—because they have frat boy energy, and even non-male Sagittariuses require wayyy too much energy for me to handle. I guess the only time Lucas really does act like a Sagittarius is in his childhood with Yuugo, and the way he’s a lot bolder and outgoing versus the quieter older Lucas we have now.

It is important to note that Lucas has been through a lot of trauma and lost a lot of comrades which could very well change the a person’s entire outlook and turn their personality 180 degrees—that could be a large factor, although on the flip side, Yuugo still fits his Capricorn sign even after going through what he’s been through. Different events affect different people differently. Lucas was most likely knocked entirely off his Sagittarius high-horse very quickly when he arrived in Goldy Pond. But if I had no prior knowledge of who he was beforehand, I very well might’ve pegged him a Leo like Emma or even another subtle Aries like Norman. So yes, he does indeed have fire energy, it’s just generally very lackluster and farrrr away from Sagittarius’ level.

Compatibility and ships: okay so I know the only Lucas ship with any weight to it in this fandom is Yuucas, and here’s the thing,,, A Sagittarius and Capricorn combo is the most horrifying fucking couple imaginable and I’m stan so hard. Realistically speaking, your Capricorns would try to put a leash on their Sagittariuses because man. I forgot to mention how childish Sagittariuses can be (though the frat boy comparison should’ve been a clue), and holy shit that poor Capricorn is gonna get ripped to shreds by their Sagittarius. Imagine like a super pompous cowboy trying to ride a furious bull that’s trying to buck him off like there’s no tomorrow. Capricorns are people who want complete control over themselves and their partners, while Sagittariuses,, Saggy Titties just want to see the world burn. Put them together and you could probably cause the End Times Apocalypse. But you know what? Good for them. I think Yuugo and Lucas love each other enough that the toxicity that comes with typical pairups with these two signs is about nonexistent between them. But I fully believe they could still destroy an entire planet and that’s valid of them to do so. Anyway moving on!

you wanna talk about another Sagittarius that makes absolutely no sense?

Paula

Birthdate: December 9th

Sign: Sagittarius

Element: Fire

Overview: My authors I am begging you, stop putting character birthdays in the Sagittarius zone you clearly don’t know what a Sagittarius is.

Since I refuse to acknowledge Paula as a Sagittarius, let’s talk about what sign she actually acts like because I said so. Paula’s a Virgo. Fight me Shirai. (Also im sus that shirai is virgophobic because where the fuck are my virgos. There’s like zero major characters that are virgos, and the characters that ARE don’t even act like virgos. I’m coming for your small intestine Shirai) so as earth signs, virgos are generally pretty resourceful and of course level-headed. They’re kinda shy and reserved, but they’re also very hard workers you can count on when you need to get a job done. Nary will you find a Virgo that procrastinates or attempts to weasel their way out of a mission they’ve been given. The unmovable earth in virgos shows through in how committed they are, and we can see all these traits in Paula. Though she’s a quieter member of the GP resistance, you can tell just how much of an asset she is to them. She doesn’t run, doesn’t lose her cool, and she’s good at pointing out important details.

Pls let me decide your characters’ birthdays for you Shirai I promise I am good at it.

Compatibility and ships: I guess, astrologically speaking, as a Sagittarius, Paula does fit pretty well with Sonya because she’s a Gemini. I actually know next to nothing about Paula ships but I do know she’s lesbian and her and Sonya are cute but I also ship her with Barbara because reasons don’t ask questions I WILL bite you anyway they’re compatible too because barb’s also a Gemini.

Lot of Geminis, don’t you think? Yes I do. Let’s talk about them.

Sonya and Sandy

Birthdates: June 3rd and May 22nd respectively

Signs: Gemini

Element: Air

Overview: these two are what I call the gemini twins bECAUSE THEYRE ALWAYS HANGING OUT AND ITS SO TRUE GEMINIS LOVE EACH OTHER BUT ALSO ITS SO WEIRD THAT WE GET ALONG. imagine like two of those one way mirrors facing each other where it just goes on and on and on for infinite mirror and that’s what two Geminis hanging out is like. Look, they’re literally thinking the same thing and it’s so great

Anyway there isn’t a whole lot of Sandy and Sonya content to go off of in the first place, but them being Geminis seems reasonable to me—at the very least they are indeed meant to get along well and they’re so in sync I could cry. Plus they’re pretty intuitive and able to think right on the spot as they’re facing Nous and Nouma (at least at first) My man Shirai also.. really likes Geminis for some reason because they keep popping up. So instead of one Spider-Man meme it looks more like this,

Compatibility and ships: not gonna dwell too long on this section because from previous ones you may already recall they’re compatible with each other and I guess with Paula as well as I must begrudgingly accept the fact that shes canonically a Sagittarius.

Pepe

Birthdate: February 19th

Sign: Pisces

Element: Water

Overview: so I mentioned before that water signs are at about the highest emotion level, which makes Pisces a very sensitive group like Cancers. But Pisces in general are known for being the kindest and most accepting people as well, which means they’re able to make a lot of friends very easily. They’re basically that one person you sat next to in class who started a conversation with you just to be nice. Now again, there’s not a whole lot of Pepe content to go off of, but we can tell he’s kind and loving to his friends and the other kids in GP. One thing I can mention is that Pisces usually are the one of the nosiest of the signs, and they get very bothered by lies and secrets (this is true for a lot of water signs, but Pisces are the worst in my experience) so we got this single piece that may have a little bit of the Pisces in Pepe showing:

Compatibility and ships: So as a Pisces, Pepe is only compatible with Oliver and Zack considering they’re also water signs. Everyone else is Fire and Air, funnily enough, but the Pepe ships with those two are super cute I think so it’s ok.

Zack

Birthdate: July 7th

Sign: Cancer

Element: Water

Overview: so do I think Zack fits his sign? Yes, in a way I do. I already went into Cancers when I explained Don, so quick recap: Cancers are some of the most sensitive and empathetic, so their loyalty to their loved ones is pretty close to on-par with an Aries. And while Zack isn’t as outwardly emotional as someone like Don, the Cancer in him shows up well in that he’s constantly taking extremely difficult missions he doesn’t want his friends to risk, and he shrugs off any injury to himself.

This might just be a me thing but almost every Cancer I’ve met has a habit of doing That. I am so concerned for their safety. I guess though, if I hadn’t known his sign beforehand, I 100% would’ve pegged him an Aries.

Compatibility and ships: I already went over this with Pepe, but Zack is compatible with Pepe and Oliver. Y’all ok listen to me. OT3. Make it happen. Between them they have every sign in the element of water. They’d be unstoppable.

Gillian

Birthdate: September 30th

Sign: Libra

Element: Air

Overview: here’s a fun one. So as I previously stated, air signs are usually out of tune with their emotions, but where that causes Aquariuses and Geminis to repress or hide them, Libras,,,, just dump them everywhere. Listen I know Libras are supposed to be the sign of the balance scales and they have a thing about the world being perfectly balanced which makes them more prone to revenge bUT ALSO. MY first and foremost takeaway from Libras is that they all suffer from Rich Bitch syndrome, in which they obsess over material items and every Libra has a thing about cute girly stuff change my mind. HOWEVER, they’re often very chaotic as well, the kinda Sagittarius of the Air signs. So like a super cute and seemingly fun girl who will probably murder you in your sleep.



I’m sorry I can’t take it I’ve been laughing at this for the past fifteen minutes it’s too funny. Anyway, Gillian’s Rich Bitch Syndrome appears through her fashion statement. Her PINS. omg. Gillian your Libra is showing.

Compatibility and ships: as a Libra Gillian is compatible with other Air signs (Aquarius, Gemini, Libra) as well as Fire signs (Aries, Sagittarius, Leo) but she’s most compatible with Aries and Sagittarius so—— Paula yes, but also Nigel because he’s an Aries! Speaking of Nigel,

Nigel

Birthdate: March 27th

Sign: Aries

Element: Fire

Overview: Aries Nigel doesn’t come as a surprise, let’s be real here. I delved into Aries before with Norman, so just as a recap: Aries are so intensely loyal to the ones they love and would do absolutely anything for them even at the cost of their lives, and this can make them prone to outbursts of anger and/or impulsivity. Here’s your one image of Aries Nigel, I don’t even have to explain:

Compatibility and ships: so I already said this but Nigel is at his most compatible with Gillian. Are there other Nigel ships?? Pls let me know I’m very curious.

Aw, it’s over now :(

I loved talking about the GP kids they fill the void in my heart. Now to move onto talking about the demons because the silliest idiot requested it and I am beyond ecstatic to spout pure headcanon bullshit. If you’re feelin excited then feel free to keep sending characters my way I will be happy to ramble about their canon zodiac or my headcanon for their zodiac

Edit: i forgot to link part 1 to anyone who wants it and doesn’t want to stalk my profile to find it
