HEYYAAA!! Can I plwease with a cherry and some sprinkles on top get some new york hc during the whole dutch/new netherlands era :33 (if you got any🙏🙏)
AHHH NY THE GRIP YOU HAVE ON ME I LOVE YOUUU I LOVE NY I LOVE NY I LOVE NY I LOVE NY I LOVE NY I LOVE NY I LOVE NY I LOVE NY
THANKK YEWW<333333
OH IM SO GLAD YOU ASKED >:)))
TW: abandonment, fear of abandonment, abuse mentions, and just awful parenting and York having a shitty time
Okay so like. The only way I can describe York's mindset during this whole time is confusion and sadness and betrayal. A quick summary based on history that I'm vaguely remembering to help you get an idea/imagination of what was happening here:
-Imagine yourself in York's place here
-youre kidnapped from your family (in York's case, the Native Americans, like the Seneca or the Lenape) and brought to a new one (the Dutch)
-someone (great Britain) decides to take you from New family (Dutch)
-youre given up without a fight
-youre sent to a "new" family that isn't good, your new "father" (Britain) is an abusive piece of shit, and your old family (Dutch) gave you up
-old family (Dutch) decides they want you back, so they fight to get you back
-old family gets you back, but then decides that they'd much rather have an island across the ocean cuz spices and treasure is worth more than you are
-youre given back to the even shittier family (Great Britain) where you're treated like shit until the children (OG13) of that family revolts several years later yada yada yada...
....
the abandonment issues on this man.
this whole era is why he's afraid to let people in. why he's afraid of opening his heart to people. cuz he knows. he just knows that it'll lead to more pain and abandonment. it's not worth it.
Now of course, none of that is fully true, but to him it is. Bro got kidnapped, abandoned, taken back, and abandoned again.
Also imagine the struggle of having to learn Dutch AND English within that timespan????? I could never.
New York was just. Scared. Confused. Betrayed. The whole time. He just wanted to be loved, to have someone that cared.
But nope.
On the brightside he would meet some lifelong friends (OG13) though. That's just about the only good thing that happened to him in that lil era.
I know that a lot of this may not be historically accurate but- here ya go :3
#welcome to the table#welcome to the statehouse#ben brainard#wttt#wttsh#wttt new york#wttsh new york

This was a terrible idea. My reputation is at stake here...
I'm Queens, I'm on this blog because Mana wanted me here. Of course he wants us all, despite the fact that he constantly says he is infact the universe. I would tell him to [!%$=] off, but I can't. We're all from the city. Even so, I'll be documenting the things going on here on my breaks from work.
I'm 24.
My Pronouns are he/him.
My name is Dillan Walker.
I'm also one of the middle siblings, I'm the exact middle.
I'm Brooklyn! I'm not good with computers like 'Hattan and Queens are.
I'm only here because Hattan wanted me here! Hattan's making me say this through a voice message. Even so l say "you" and not "youse" sometimes, okay!?
I'm 27.
he/him pronouns
my name? Why are you asking?? it's Niel Taylor.

[ ooc info under cut ]
[ haii! mun here. they/them for me]
despite running a blog that has the nyc boroughs as muses, im. not a new yorker. im a newjerseyian. for that reason nj and ny state will also appear]
--
The boroughs themselves are all based on generic stereotypes, myths, and stories in NYC . please don't take it offensively if one of them is shown to be SUPER stereotypical,, that's just how hetalia is
the muses also swap between using each other's human and chosen names sometimes,, im indecisive .
--
Ok rules and DNI now
basic DNI (map/zoo, racist, terf, etc)
No NSFW asks, mun is a minor
PLEASEEE do not ship any of my muses w/ each other . they are SIBLINGS
you can ship them with other characters i guess. as long as it's not a proship (no adult w/ Staten, no adults with kids, no characters with pets, whatever. just don't)
also just be a decent person don't spam hate in my inbox (mun has severe anxiety)
--
ANY!!! hetalia askblogz are allowed to int, whether it be canon or oc! OC includes 2p, nyo, and mochi/nekotalia (if those exists lol).
thx for reading!!!

melon barn is a lot of things to a lot of people; for some a home, a place to be themselves, a place to share their soul, a place to dump gravel, maybe even the only place where they aren’t an outsider.
the only place im not left sidelined is in the pit,
and so as i look around myself, deep into a song, deep in the mosh pit, sliding gracelessly across sweat slicked, drunken bodies, i see dozens of eyes staring up through smeared makeup at the band, at the ceiling, at each other.
this is a place of people. of music, and of human contact. human connection.
in between sets i find myself sitting alone, outside in the grass. i wonder briefly why whiteclaw and celsius taste exact the same, gazing at the barn, when im hit by the sudden realization that this is one of the last times ill be here.
where else in the world will i go to hear brief snippets of conversations about who here is, in fact, mothman? or the dutch colonizing the island of trash in the ocean?
where will all these freaks see each other again? will we find our way back to each other in basements and garages at house shows?
or maybe in the dimly lit paper moon studios?
but nothing will ever be the same. as the barn.
in the pit, with eyes closed, i move toward body heat like a moth to a warm light. this is my sun, my life-giving force.
these rust colored walls that remind me of a deep martian canyon, these twinkly lights dangling from barn to trees, all across the yard; they shine proudly, hanging there like our own stars.
like the cheapest imitation of god.
(thank you lou reed)

so after vagueing that i had a bad day i also want to make a 'dear diary' post saying that i had a GOOD day yesterday because:
- had lunch with my old flatmate that i lived with in aarhus and his sister and mum and it feels nice to have some familiar people in a 'new' place
- the man behind the counter was the most attractive man i have ever seen holy shit. will return to this place just for him.
- after talking with my former flatmate about dating i decided to give tinder another try and i matched with a danish professor again who i had matched with before deleting my tinder and we are going on a date soon :) (i am still not sure if he is my type but i am interested enough to at least give it a try)
- also matched with someone (52yo hot daddy kind of man with the best moustache i have ever seen) who was using tinder in a gr*ndr way but sexually speaking he is exactly my type and we are hopefully meeting up soon 👀
- decided to be brave and went to the friday bar despite storm otto and found some people i hung out with last time and it was GREAT. finally felt like my jokes landed a bit and it just felt comfortable
- one of the girls there is bffs with one of my nordic languages in the middle ages classmates and she said: "yeah so we both think you are really hot." and i joked "oh, that must probably be because im the foreign mysterious stranger" and they said "no, we thought you were attractive on looks alone" and now i have to come to terms with people finding me hot. new experience. error.
- this girl also hugged me at the end and said we are officially friends and that she is looking forward to seeing me again <3
- there was also this guy from the faroe islands there who is lowkey my type (i dont really vibe with guys my age that often) and we talked all evening and the girl said that i am exactly his type. he is in an open relationship so perhaps Something could happen there. 👀 (but also down with just having him as a friend)
so yeah after having a bad week (nearly got financially fucked by paper work and bad communcation & my dutch friend group turns out to be so ignorant that they are lowkey transphobic) i needed a friday. <3
#Today is going to be a self care day so I am probably going for a run today#and then buying some nice food at the supermarket#and then just bury myself in blankets and watch something with russell#just a chill day#text

you said you wanted to hear about our pitty ocs so uhh im gonna ramble about mine! their full name is jesse theodore gerard, their name in-game is 'ruthless' jesse gerald (headcanon that boochbeard misheard their last name both as they said it and as the maestro said it) and their prefered name is dirk (derived from their middle name). they have a bajillion names because i didn't know what to name them so i browsed behind the name for dutch names that i thought would fit their vibe.
anyway yea while dirk is a hero of the spiral for stopping the armada, they are not above violence and whatnot by a LONG SHOT. they're a 'stab first, ask questions if the stabbing victim happens to survive' kinda fella, and growing up in skull island after seeing their childhood home of karamelle fall to capitalist corruption has given them a... somewhat skewed morality when it comes to justice and money. in the story im writing with them, they swear to hunt down the Wizard bc the Wizard may or may not have nearly destroyed the Spiral after the events of Arc 3 (with the whole 'Nothing' prophecy). Justice and bloodshed go hand in hand for them. they've got a good heart but heaps of bad experiences and not-so-good environments will do that to a kid.
also dirk is like 20 and not a child because the backstory i made for them just does not work if they're a child. and their story/the events of the game happen after arc 3. despite p101 saying that the pirate is a child and that p101 mooshu and w101 mooshu overlap. canon is 'more guidelines than rules,' as that one PoTC character once said.
OH THATS SO COOL!!!!!
i LOVE the fact that theyre going after the wizard for the nothing prophecy.... and the fact that theyre from karamelle too 👁👁 i dont see a lot of ocs that come from karamelle so thats incredibly intriguing to me
AND TBH I THINK OF MY PIRATE AS SOMEONE OLDER TOO or as someone who... progressively gets older throughout our journey until they reach some semblance of an adulthood at the end of the first arc
#val.answers#...dont know what to tag this as#pirate101#?? CLOSE ENOUGH#still stuck in cool ranch by the way . i love cowboys but GODDAMNIT I WANT TO LEAVE .#i am gods child and they have left me in the hot car (cool ranch)#religious m in the tags#i should draw my pitty ocs more.... and my armada ocs.... and my ki-related game ocs in general lulz

I DONT KNOW HOW MUCH OF THIS WILL FIT IN ONE ASK BUT IM GONNA TRY! So Darcy doesn’t really have any issues with Molly because Molly showing up and even the wandering eyes towards the end of Molly’s relationship with Dutch makes him, in Darcy’s mind, truly unattainable which makes him “safe”, as I’ve talked about before. During that time, I imagine Darcy and Arthur become closer buddybuddyand Darcy in general puts her mind to working and integrating herself more in the community. HOWEVER! There’s one of Dutch and Molly’s fights before the island stuff and before she disappears where Arthur is present and Molly mentions Dutch hasn’t touched her in weeks and you bet your ass Darcy just 👀. Some kinda switch gets flipped and Darcy just becomes a feral nasty thing and she’s like “I’m gonna do it. I’m gonna actually fuck Dutch.” And actively pursues him again, restarting weird tension between Darcy and Arthur in the middle of everything else going on at that point
First of all how the FUCK did you fit all of that in one ask. What sorcery is this.
And second of all AHHHHH!!!! AHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!! FUCK!!!! G-D!!!!!!
Arthur would be so fucking relieved at first, like when the weirdness between her and Dutch starts to ease up and Dutch moves onto Molly he’s kind of just like oh thank fuck because it could’ve gone SO MUCH WORSE, and Arthur--being a himbo--sees the way Dutch is with Molly (genuinely seems really invested in her, is just overall kind and patient and good with her in the beginning) and is like huh, maybe this one WILL work out :0
And then ofc everything starts going to shit and Dutch’s mental health takes another downturn and ON TOP OF ALL OF THAT DARCY STARTS PURSUING DUTCH AGAIN BUT REALLY PURSUING HIM THIS TIME and Arthur is just. G-d he’s so tired. He’s so tired and so SAD because Darcy deserves BETTER and he can’t reconcile like... the whole “why AM I so uncomfortable with this?? they’re adults, Dutch is good to women even if it all goes badly, Darcy can do what she wants and we’re just friends” and AUGH
G-D DAMMIT, DARCY!!!!!!!!!!!

hllo ! i’m nora ( she / her, 24, gmt ) crawling back to this rp once more like the dirty sewer slug i am !! i just can’t get enough, baybeyyy ! u may remember me frm such roles as alma putnam, rory bergstrom, bridget matusiak or greta o’driscoll 2 name jst a few.... sure there were more over these long years, bt the show must go on.... this is mimi, she’s dogmatic, tenacious n single-minded 2 the point of recklessness, she doesn’t like handouts n she’s funding her degree through her onlyfans account n moaning abt shit on tiktok. we love 2 see it !! slam that like button n i’ll creep into ur DMs like the slippery worm i am OR u can discord me at that bitch carole baskin#8664. a humble pinterest.
『ALEXA DEMIE ❙ CIS-FEMALE 』 ⟿ looks like MIMI MARTÍNEZ is here for HER SOPHOMORE year as an ARCHITECTURE AND SOCIAL ANTHROPOLOGY student. SHE is 22 years old & known to be STRONG-WILLED, GOAL-ORIENTED, ARROGANT & EASILY BORED. They’re living in MORIS, so if you’re there, watch out for them. ⬳ nora. 24. gmt. she/her.
this is p embarassing but i actually originally wrote mimi for a discord rp based around love island asgjag dont laugh at me but it was so chaotic n someone deleted it w-out telling any of us so i lost her bio.... all her threads....e verythin.... it was mad. but anyway we startin from scratch w this intro so bare with
mimi is a really extra character so when trying to flesh her out i thot of the most extra thing i could do n made a colour coded mindmap with watercolour paints detailing her values, aesthetics and early life. shoot me
background: she grew up in a trailer home in boulder city, abt half an hour from vegas. her mom had worked in a vegas casino for most of her 20s but relocated to boulder city for a slower pace of life / lower crime rate when she started having kids. mimi has 2 older brothers n she’s the youngest. has that invulnerable younger sibling complex n basically thinks nothing can touch her. very confident in her own intelligence and her ability to get shit done
has mexican ancestry on her mom’s side. doesn’t know her dad. was raised with spanish catholic principals n found it all very stained glass windows and extra n that’s why she was kinda drawn to the decadence of vegas and all these massively high key aesthetics, like dia de les muertos was her fave thing growin up just bcos the pure feel of the festival and painting a sugar skull on her face n being able to party on the streets in a flower crown where everyone was kinda anonymous but together in this celebration
in boulder city her mom worked as a carer as there’s a lot of retirees there. mimi really resented the slow pace of life, longed for some fucking energy n life. she was a cheerleader in school but outside of school there wsn’t much to do except practise stunts and go on bike rides. occasionally they’d get dressed up and catch a bus to henderson, the next biggest city for them to get tht sweet night life
her teenage years consisted mostly of hanging around the renovated motel blocks used as housing projects n tanning by the pool. very florida project if you’ve seen that. she reminds me a lot of the mum in that. also she started working as an avon rep going door-to-door when she was 16 bcos she wanted to have her own income. like as young as 14 she’d decided she was smart enough to go to college but she didn’t have the money n her family didn’t really see it as a worthwhile thing, her mom was very like the mom from matilda “you chose books.... i chose looks!” which i think is where a lot of mimi’s more shallow / appearance-driven traits come from
wasn’t really ‘cool’ until high school. before that she was a bit of a lisa simpson type. won a spelling bee when she was 9. was in the mathletes squad in middle school. when she went from middle school to high school she started cheer and tried to reinvent herself basically. always been very concerned with social mobility and keen to socially climb, like when she enters a new situation she’ll find out who the alphas are and quickly try n befriend them
when she turned 18 she moved out and went to vegas despite her mom hating the idea bcos it was everything she’d tried to get her kids away from. she worked in the clubs there for several years as a shot girl, a table dancer, n eventually she started workin behind the bar in a strip club. in the club it ws really hard to resist becoming a dancer bcos of the sheer amount they made in tips. no one really pressured her into it she just eventually decided tht it was way more logical to do it while she was young n fit and had the stamina and ppl were willing to pay to see her body so she started taking pole fitness lessons. she also started working as a cam girl around this time
working in vegas strip clubs is basically whats paid for uni. like she didn’t go at 18 like most of her friends did bcos she didn’t have the money and she didn’t want to feel indebted to a college like she had to compete for her place and not put a toe out of line bcos she was on a scholarship. she was determined to pay her own way and it took 4 years of working really hard and saving n even tho she was working in vegas she basically never went out bcos every penny she had needed to go on uni n thts how we get to radcliffe baybeeyy
part 2 - interior / values / personality
values: the aesthetic !! literally loves the aesthetic so much. everything she owns is super embellished, she’s a pop socket gal, her dell laptop is covered in glitzy stickers, she always has acrylics n probs makes nail art videos on tiktok. really tuned into tiny details like painting a little hello kitty above her eye which translates into her degree when she’s doing small-scale mockups of town plans n stuff... she jst puts so much detail into them. ppl often get surprised when she tells them she does architecture but it makes so much sense bcos she grew up in a trailer park n was always thinking about ways the space could be more efficiently used, like she loves re-conceptualising neighbourhoods, definitely spent hours on sims as a kid. she also grew up near hoover dam n so loads of school trips they just took them there n she was like.... this is tight but it could be cooler.... where’s the passion....
massively into photography, has such a neat instagram feed like everything just compliments the tones in the next post like mMMM. idk if any of u know any architecture students but this is literally the one constant i can find…. like they all have super good instagrams feeds. is that bitch that will take 40 fake candids of u in a row at different angles to get u the perfect profile picture cos she understands the importance of marketing urself and having an online #brand
has wire rimmed glasses that she doesn’t need to see BUT they r like a magnifying glass for when she’s working with really small materials to do a mock up of an urban plan, and also just sometimes wears them for the aesthetic bc she’s such a pinterest bitch
assassination nation is such a big mood. literally the aesthetics of that and lily colson’s whole brand of feminism and nudity not being inherently sexual but at the same time wanting to profit off that bcos why the fuck shouldnt she use a corrupt system to her advantage is incredibly mimi
literally a human personification of a bratz doll both in attitude and fashion sense
somehow simultaneously gansey in the raven cycle AND elle woods in legally blonde? the two genders
values cont bc i started rambling: her independence and freedom. being the best at any given task she sets her mind to accomplish because she is unable to accept failure. social mobility. sexual liberation. interested in the psychology of sub-cultures and how ppl form groups and interact w each other and cult identities which is why she minors in anthropology. pro-choice. pro-weed legalisation. pro-sex worker rights. very activist.
aesthetics tht remind me of her: von dutch. a strappy cami top that says ‘please do not do coke in the bathroom’. low-waisted jeans that show off her belly button piercing. acrylic nails tapping against a heavily embellished second-hand dell laptop. heart shaped sunglasses in every colour. translucent stripper heels with barbie doll heads and plastic spiders in the heel. spraying champagne you cant afford all over the walls. narcotics in a heart shaped locket. an amazon wishlist full of lingerie linked on your tinder profile. sex tapes recorded on VCR. a religious devotion to waxing clinics. necking shots like you were born to do it.
she’s an enfj type which makes her pretty charismatic and confidence, like she has a fierce kind of energy to her, but she’s also super unwilling to accept criticism, dogmatic and can only really see her own way of thinking, quite ruthless when it comes 2 other ppls emotions despite having a poor control of her own and being prone to turbulence / throwin a bitch fit in the craft lab. easily bored. competitive. self-assured to the point of arrogance. forceful. adaptable. usually more rational than emotional but occasionally loses the ability to make rational decisions when blinded by a need for perfectionism.
very goal-oriented. money motivates her. money and clothes. she wants to look bomb while earning big bucks. when she gets her mind set on a project it literally consumes her she will forget to eat and sleep? i don’t know her. like when a final design project is due for architecture she’ll be up all night doing adderall and speed to keep her awake working on the placement of a single tree for ages cos its gotta be perfect
loves chaos. will spill your secrets and pretend it was an accident. will always be that gif of kim kardashian sipping her tea while drama unfolds around her. lives for the drama like that gifset of bratz when she comes running and gets her phone out to record a fight.
im makin her sound like a really bad person but hopefully she’ll be somewhat likeable she can be very charismatic and endearing and she’s naturally quite funny. also now she’s finally in college and doesn’t have to worry so much about money she actually allows herself to party n bcos she denied herself of it for so long she kinda makes up for it by going p wild like will be the girl climbing on to stage to crowd surf at gigs or doing a summersault off the bar and being escorted out by bouncers, thats the energy were looking at, pure dionysian hedonistic impulse
really gd at talking her way out of shit like parking fines. so good at being an ‘im baby’ girl and often dumbs herself down to figures of authority to appear less like a threatening ball-breaker and more like a confused fiat 500 girl who didn’t know red meant stop she thought it meant slow down
listens almost exclusively to female artists. has fergalicious on repeat when she does squats infront of the mirror n just the biggest fergie stan. also lana del rey’s whole vibe is massive mimi energy
ok ya thats all i have for now..... hopefully this is somewhat coherent and not just garbage.

me reading up on dutch-canadian relations:
fr though, back when i studied in america me and two german friends of mine decided to go to toronto for a weekend, and i was taken away by how much it felt like home! granted, id already been in the states for months but man, from the bicycles to the shops selling speculoos flavors, i felt an immediate connection.
one day me and my friends decided to go to this island but when we arrived it was pouring and there wasnt actually anything to do there cause everything was closed so we were just strolling around kind of lost when this woman walked up to us and actually offered for us, three total strangers, to have some tea over at her house.
she had all these dutch ornament kind of tiles and kept talking about how much her husband liked the netherlands and it was just the absolute cutest thing ever. unfortunately we only had time to be in toronto for 4 days and as a dutch person im probably totally biased in this anyway lmfao but it totally reaffirmed my love and respect for canada & its citizens!
apart from that short experience in toronto i also walked the four day marches in nijmegen last year and this canadian soldier actually gave me this pin which i also thought was just cute as hell lol
ily, canada
#canada#netherlands#dont mind this random-ass rant of appreciation#i like to personify the hell out of countries#and i totally imagine nl as that short weird stoner in the back of class#staring longingly at cool tall canada#cause theyre our saviors and all that

🌻🌻🌻🌻 🚜 it's like a little garden!
hello lil garden <3 im gonna pick all the floweurs :3
there are like two dreams i remember pretty vividly: one, i had stigmata. (fun fact: i’m a jew) i woke up and i could feel the pain in my palms and feet. i was like. maybe in fifth or sixth grade. everything happens when i’m 13 or 14 because i have exactly zero memory and Bad Brain Disorder Origin Years just makes everything a sad mockery of mashed potatoes
the second dream i remember vividly was essentially that i discovered a door to Wonderland (and listen here u lil shits: i’m not a big Wonderland person, not even a Mad Hatter kinda gal despite whatever my past has said about me, and also my Jervis Tetch is super valid and prob one of the best out there you’re welcome) in this honestly gorgeous old mansion. the kind that’s just. tons of dark wood, narrow halls, winding and yet there’s a lot of natural light, like gorgeous. and i found a door to Wonderland and holy fucking shit
what i would give to actually find a door to that Wonderland, bye y’all peace it’s been a gas but i gotta run
so after i left i wanted to go back, and i had a rough time finding the portal and ok long story short it turned out i had to go deal with a unicorn cult (it was more intense than that but hey, cults amirite) in order to get the reagents to go back to Wonderland and i suddenly found myself falling in a huge cave and the spirit healer from WoW was there so that says a lot about where i was in my life at the time
still tryna go back to Wonderland
i made this guy in Sims4 and he’s really fuckin cute and i named him Lane Morgans. i’m gonna put his tag on this post so maybe you’ll go take a look at him and see how amazing he is but i’m just gonna jerk myself off here too
(also sidenote, Salutations (my farmer in sdv, also top notch) is his uncle and when i wrote up his first char sheet i fucked up his last name bc his last name can’t be Morgans, but i’ll give him another one Soon(tm) (no i won’t))
Lane is a retired rollercoaster engineer who is now writing romance novels. he’s doing absolutely amazingly and his twitter a mess in a good way. he wishes he was Chuck Tingle’s bff. his novels aren’t modeled after Tingle’s (hehe), he writes very well rounded, interesting, and diverse romance that doesn’t take itself seriously. because i do what i want, he’s pretty well known and on several bestsellers.
he’s like in his 40s by now i think and he’s a late transitioner. he’s a divorcee (he and his ex wife are really good friends it’s all good) and he had his son Ellis awhile back (who is just a whole dutch cookie tin of crayons and then some). at a singles mixer he met a gardener who would be his future husband and everything is amazing now
also side braids and ponytails run in the family i guess
(actually Salutations has been side ponytail like all his life and Lane was enchanted by it so he side braids. Salutations is very proud)
i still think about it honestly i was really into keeping up to date with junk food news and food product for a while there but the popular sites were starting to piss me off with their rating systems and reviews like holy entitlement and superiority complex, batman! so i dropped out of it, like the only one that is still super valid is onsecondscoop.com tho it’s been a real hot minute since
i have a lot of my parents’ vinyls and that includes The Beatles white album with some water damage bc i guess my dad knocked something over at some point but also the good stuff like Fleetwood Mac, Linda Ronstadt, America, Seals and Crofts, a lot of musicals, James Taylor, Gordon Lightfoot, Cat Stevens (now Yusuf), Earth, Wind, and Fire, Marvin Gaye and more!!! (and i left a whole shitload in chicago too) and it’s very telling about my musical tastes.
i had ordered Arctic Monkeys’s AM album and it skipped on No. 1 Party Anthem and some other song and so i was like :\ and ordered another and you’ll never guess,
a few songs stand out to me:
Gordon Lightfoot’s Approaching Lavender
Seals and Crofts’s Hummingbird
Fleetwood Mac’s Silver Springs
James Taylor’s Never Die Young, Line ‘Em Up, Shower The People
(the Fleetwood Mac and James Taylor songs are specifically the ones i was introduced to with, as in the Live versions of Silver Springs and Shower The People)
for those who don’t know i’m also a huge Enya fan (LOTR was good to me) and Dark Sky Island was sick af btw, and also Donna Lewis’s entire Now In A Minute album is pretty fuckin close to my soul
however probably my favorite song, most sacred to me, hard to explain it but just the. whew the memories attached is I Love You Always Forever
furthermore a song that still really creeps me out (that also has an origin story attached to it) is 98 Degrees a cappella cover of She’s Out Of My Life (yep! still no thanks)
i grew up around a cappella since my mom is like a lifetime member of the Sweet Adelines womens a cappella organization or w/e so yeah and i’m not ognna link this on bc it’s a bitch to find just by itself, but Lida Rose from The Music Man is also a fist clench...
now on a more depressing note but one i have mention, Spice Girls’s Viva Forever is uuuhhh hhhhhhhhh hhhhhhnnnnmmmmmmmmmmm
anyway my dad used to travel overseas for work and when i was younger he went to Germany (and he’d go back there several times after) and he brought me back my first jar of Nutella. naturally i lost my entire shit, and imagine my surprise when Nutella got really big in America lmao he’d brought that jar home like. uh. 7, 9 years prior?? idk guys, ages and math, but it was funny to me
best fucking gingerbread recipe is by Nigella Lawson and i found it in her book How To Be A Domestic Goddess and it’s right fucking here ur welcome
i’m definitely one of those people who picks a book with a cool cover, reads a couple pages and then decides if i’m taking it or not and that’s how i found like so many good books

Yesterday I came back from my first ever holiday on my own. Today I spent the whole day relaxing and only doing laundry as I traveled almost all day yesterday. I had a lovely time, it was great to be able to decide what I wanted to do on my own and then doing it or deciding to do something totally different. I really enjoyed it, it felt really freeing. It also was a bit lonely sometimes, especially when I would be the only one on my own. Like when I ate breakfast at my hotel and was surrounded by couples, friends and family. Or when I went out for lunch or dinner on my own. Also the fact that you can't share it and talk about it with other people. I spammed my family with pictures just to feel like that for a bit. But the positive things did really outshine the negative ones. Who knows, I might do this again and travel farther or longer. But this was a great start!
#me#personal#holiday#i went to one of the dutch islands#i always wanted to go back there#spent my days biking and walking#sitting in the sand watching the sea#walking barefoor on the beach and in the water#just enjoying everything#even felt like crying sometimes that i was doing this#being able to do this and that i didnt chicken out#also sometimes felt like a loser when i asked the hotel manager questions#i've never stayed at an hotel before#and my anxiety made that very clear to me#but for the biggest part it was a really positive experience#it felt like an adventure#one i didnt think i would ever be able to do a year ago#and now i did it#im really proud of me#and i still almost cant believe i did this#anyway#might post some pictures tomorrow#i took quite a few#just me rambling#but this is the only place i know where i can post this#get it out of my head and my system

Fern, Orchid and Peony for the not so heartless boys please~ Also Edmond the cutie! Haven't heard of him in a while!
e-edmond.. my other magic boye... thank you elli... im lov u
Fern: What flavor do you have for your wedding cake?
Xigbar- The madlad and I had wedding cupcakes because that was just easier than anything else. Also 100% not because we hardly planned anything and had to buy them after the fact. But he had dutch chocolate and I had red velvet.
Luxord- Do they have wedding cakes on that world? I’m going to assume he brought one because neither of us trusts anything cooked there… It was also red velvet.
Edmond- He was all about summoning a cake but Bastian had one prepared. I can’t even place the flavor, he wouldn’t tell us. But I can say that it was fantastic.
Orchid: Where do you and your F/O plan to go for your honeymoon?
Xigbar- There’s a world that seems like it’s a post-apocalypse, but it’s oddly peaceful. It might be ruined, but there’s something about it that’s calm and gentle… Something there that feels right. He seems really content to be in that world. That’s where we’re going.
Luxord- Does it count if we’re already there? The ship is really all we need, another adventure. With a new stage of our relationship.
Edmond- Normally, I’d refuse to leave the farm, but he told his apprentices to take care of it while we leave, so he has planned a nice little getaway for us. It’s another island, that has a mystical cave full of giant crystals.
Peony: Who proposed? How did the proposal go?
Xigbar- He did. He just sort of blurted it out while holding me against him in bed. Just “Let’s get married.” It… Startled me, but I said yes.
Luxord- I did, and he completely failed to notice for a second. We were jokingly making bets on a game, if he lost he’d have to marry me. It flew right over his head until Xion pointed out to him what I just said. He lost the game “on accident”.
Edmond- I did, with the blue feather as tradition. It went really well! He was very cute when he got flustered over his words.

Storymas Day Two: How Rudolph The Red Nose Reindeer is Minority Culture (Part One)
Pairing: Moxiety
Summary: Virgil and Patton decide to show their kids Rudolph The Red nose Reindeer and talk about how the special relates to them. They all agree that this special is at least a little gay.
Genre: Discussion, Hurt/Comfort
Warnings (For Both Parts): Discussions of Homophobia, Ableism, Sexism, and Racism (Ask If Anything Else Needs To Be Tagged), Sympathetic Deceit
AU: A Side Story In The Love Is For Everyone AU!, Human AU, Monster!Roman
Read On AO3| Part Two
-
EmoChristmasMusic: I’m rewatching Rudolph on my laptop and i just figured out it’s LGBTQ+ and minority culture
Christmas Lights (patt)On:Wait!
Christmas Lights (patt)On: How?
EmoChirstmasMusic: Rudolph, Hermey, the Abominable Snowman, are all a bunch of misfits who were shunned by society for being different. Rudolph for his red nose, Hermey ‘cause he wants to be a dentist (which isn’t accepted in the Christmas society), and the giant snowmonster because there scared of him.
EmoChristmasMusic: They all get mocked and hurt by their peers and discriminated against. They set put on their own where they go to an island where a bunch of other misfits (Island Of Misfit Toys) are left alone and hoping to be accepted by people who were supposed to want them (The Kids).
EmoChristmasMusic: Then there’s Clarice is a "perfect" child who is banned and stopped from being friends with those who are different. There’s also the Gold Hunter, who like takes Rudolph and Hermey in and accepts them immediately, which is super neat
EmoChristmasMusic: There's also the fact that there value is only seen when they are recognized for a "use" which can apply to some oppressed groups.
Christmas Lights (patt)On: Oh
Christmas Lights (patt)On: Okay wow
Christmas Lights (patt)On:That is a lot deeper than I expected
Christmas Lights (patt)On: But that’s super cool! I think we need to show the kiddos the movie and talk with them about it cause I think they would appreciate
EmoChristmasMusic: Oooh…
EmoChristmasMusic: That’s a good idea.
EmoChristmasMusic: I think Remy and Roman will particularly get a kick out of it.
EmoChristmasMusic: Though Remy probably saw it before. They mentioned watching a couple of CHristmas specials before.
Christmas Lights (patt)On: True. Do I think Dee will enjoy it, and it’s been on the room while Ro was in it, but I’m pretty sure he had fallen asleep when it was on.
Christmas Lights (patt)On: I’m excited now!
Christmas Lights (patt)On: Like super excited
EmoChristmasMusic: Yeah same xD
EmoChristmasMusic: I know your lunch break is nearly over so im gonna leave and finish this special
EmoChristmasMusic: See ya later Patt
Christmas Lights (patt)On: Later Virgil! Love You!^_^
EmoChristmasMusic: Love you too
-
A/N: I hope you enjoyed! Rudolph is one of my favorite Christmas Specials so after doing m yearly rewatch, I decided to bring some thoughts and other comparisons I've seen into fic form! The actual discussion will happen next chapter and I will bring in even more takes, some of which are mine and others that I have seen!
