I need to know.. in ranking form. Which route I'd gonna be the hardest emotionally? Whose gonna break me?
Not like you didn't already start that shit with how the au demo ended... js.. stupid Ash!
Like Ash seems to be a tough one definitely!
but Poe seems like a bit of a manipulating turbulent route.. (using an old friendships knowledge as ammo against someone you were once close to is dastardly... i can't wait)
Although pursuing Ori seems so sweet i love a good best friend is the one vibe but especially with the rough relationship with everyone else including how close they are to MCs whole ass ex might get alil messy.
As for hunter... hunter is a mystery to me.
Hmm, I'm gonna go in reverse order because that's much easier for some reason 😅
Hunter is the least known to MC, so they're pretty mysterious to MC as well. They're excited to finally reconnect with MC in a more appropriate setting, but having the least amount of history with MC also means the potential for hurt is lower. It's probably more likely that MC would hurt Hunter than the other way around, they just want what's best for MC (while really hoping that includes them). {current update!! HUNTER = JULES!!}
Ori is the sweetest of the bunch but like you mentioned, there's some awkwardness from Ori being so close to both MC & Ash. Their route is tricky and will require more 'correct' choices from MC, in order to bypass the magical red tape. There's definitely a potential for heartbreak.
OG Ash is more confused than hurt. They still don't know why MC broke up with them and left them high & dry with the professional Demonhall teams. They're a lot more patient & protective of MC and the journey they're going through.
AU Ash knows MC as well as Ori does, if not better. And sometimes, when MC hurts Ash (whether intentional or not), they have the capacity of lashing out like a scorned Witxh. Ash isn't necessarily looking to hurt MC but they're definitely not concerned with protecting their feelings, either.
And then there's Poe. Ohh Poe. They're a huge wild card with a permanent chip on their shoulder. When they're around MC it's like they're constantly at war with themselves, over carrying this decades-long grudge or giving in to the moment. They have a penchant for acting out and that can often come at MC's expense.
But the RO who will be doing the most breaking hasn't been introduced yet 🤫
Thanks for the ask, that was fun (=

“We don’t listen to children. We treat children as manifestly inferior to adults. We give them less rights,” says Gill-Peterson. “We make them economically and politically dependent on adults. We put them in dangerous and vulnerable situations all the time. They have no control or participation in authoring the world they live in, the schools they go to, the doctor’s offices they visit, the adults they’re left alone with. And then we say they’re incapable of knowing anything. Therefore, they have no ability to hold adults to account. That’s a very disturbing way to treat a group of people.”
What’s so scary about a transgender child?

ALSO if you’re still doing the ship questions, then seblaine? 👀
i'm going to say in advance that i'm sorry, none of these are going to be happy, i am not a traditional seblainer
when i started shipping it if i did:
i started having thoughts about them during my re-watch of like .. late season 4 with my friend jules. she had an idea about them hooking up around glease and it gave me brain worms
my thoughts:
they need to have THE most insane and awful relationship for, at most, three weeks and then have THE most firey and destructive breakup during season 4. they cannot be romantic or sexual before or after that. they can't even be romantic DURING
what makes me happy about them:
thinking about them breaking up
what makes me sad about them:
nothing at all
things done in fanfic that annoys me:
the woobification of sebastian.. and the idea that blaine liked sebastian back romantically in s3
things i look for in fanfic:
i don't read fanfic about them ❤️
who i��d be comfortable them ending up with, if not each other:
blaine with kurt of course + sebastian either by himself or with jesse st james
my happily ever after for them:
divorce
who is the big spoon/little spoon:
sebastian would be the bigger spoon + blaine would be the little spoon
what is their favorite non-sexual activity:
thinking about other people while they're with each other
#again sorry i just cant see them being functional and i dont want them to be#freddieslater#asks#my post

Get to know me!
Thanks for the tag lovely @synindoodles @st-eve-barnes and @alexagirlie
Nickname: how boring I have none 🤔need to work on it
Sign: Scorpio ♏
Height: 165 cm
The last thing I googled: CCXP
Amount of sleep: 5-7 hours, but never enough.
Dream job: That's a good one. I have had several dream jobs. I've worked as a lawyer (I have studied law) and I loved it. It was my dream job for some time. Then I got the insane idea that I need to study more, went abroad and landed being a translator (I have never studied or learned that, I just love languages, so it just happened) - and I loved it so much!!!! It was my dream job for 10 years. And then I had the idea that I need something new and now I'm a manager over a team of 35 people. And I love it!!! It's my dream job for now, until some new crazy idea will bring something new. Idk maybe I'm crazy, but I can't imagine myself doing the same thing for my all life. I need a change and something to strive for, to learn something new. Ask me in 5 years - I will probably have a new dream job 😂
Favorite song: I don't have one favourite. How can you have one favourite if there are so many good ones?
Movie/Book that Summarises Me: Barbie to some extent 🤣🤣🤣and Vicky Cristina Barcelona von Woody Allen.
Favorite instrument: I can't play a single instrument, but I would love to play guitar.
Aesthetic: I have traveled through many styles and looks and my job makes me stick to business casual to a certain extent, but when loose and on my own - simple and comfortable are the only criteria that count, preferably jeans.
Favorite authors: there is not enough space to list them all. I love reading, although lately I have never enough time for it. James Fenimore Cooper, Jules Verne, Arthur Conan Doyle, Fyodor Dostoevsky, Mikhail Bulgakov, J. R. R. Tolkien... these are a few my favourites that I still reread from time to time
Random fun fact: I can't cook. Don't know whether it is fun🤷♀️, but in my family my man does cooking and he is damn good at it, so there is no chance I'll ever learn

The Breakers Music Room —
The MUSIC ROOM, designed by Richard van der Boyen and Allard et Fil, reflects the French Baroque interior the Vanderbilts would have seen in places like the Paris Opera House, and was the setting for family weddings and debutante parties. Gold and silver leaf, blue-grey Campan marble from France, mirrors, and crystal light fixtures combine to make a glittering effect for evening concerts and receptions. The spirit of music and numerous great composers are celebrated in the ceiling painting. This room and furnishings, in addition to those in the Morning Room, were designed and constructed in France then shipped to this location for installation.
————————————————————————
The Breakers Morning Room —
The wall paneling in the MORNING ROOM was designed by Richard van der Boyen, who carved elaborate garlands and figures in the late Renaissance style. Classical mythology and allegories decorate this room, from the painted allegory of the four seasons on the ceiling, to the Muses who appear in the corners of the room, painted on platinum leaf panels.
The room also displays portraits of Cornelius Vanderbilt II by the preeminent American portrait painter, John Singer Sargent, and the Count Laszlo Széchényi and Countess Gladys Széchényi, by the Hungarian artist Philip Alexius De László. Countess Széchényi was born Gladys Vanderbilt, the youngest of Cornelius and Alice's children. In 1908, Gladys married Count Laszlo Széchényi, a member of Hungary's premier aristocratic family and a minister to the Court of St. James in London and, later, to the United States.
When her mother Alice passed away in 1934, Countess Széchényi inherited The Breakers. In 1948, to raise funds for the Preservation Society's restoration of Hunter House, Countess Széchényi opened The Breakers to the public for tours. That same year, she leased The Breakers to the Preservation Society for $1.00 a year and continued to fund the maintenance of the house. The Preservation Society purchased The Breakers in 1972 for approximately $400,000. As an early member and supporter of the Preservation Society, Countess Széchényi made a major contribution to the preservation of Newport's architectural heritage.
——————————————————————————
The Breakers Breakfast / Dining Room —
The BREAKFAST ROOM served as both breakfast room and informal family dining room. The table, which may be extended to seat 16 would have seated the entire family or served as seating for a small, informal dinner or luncheon. One of the premier decorators for America's elite families, Jules Allard et Fils Cules Allard & Sons) of Paris, supplied the Louis XV style furniture for the room and decided on the room's color scheme. The Vanderbilts were surrounded by imagery of the harvest.
Look around to see fruits and vegetables plentifully adorning the walls. The 12 rose-colored stone columns are solid alabaster and draw your eyes upward to the ceiling painting of the goddess Aurora heralding the dawn. The massive chandeliers and wall sconces in the Imperial design are made of French Baccarat crystal, and were piped for gas and wired for electricity at the time the house was built. The crown shaped tops indicate the style, while the rings on the chains were used to adjust the flow of gas.
Allard and Sons of Paris assisted Hunt with furnishings and fixtures, Austro-American sculptor Karl Bitter designed relief sculpture, and Boston architect Ogden Codman decorated the family quarters. The mansion covers nearly an acre of the 13-acre property and has 70 rooms including 48 bedrooms for family and staff. There are 27 fireplaces. It was equipped with electricity – still a novelty in houses during the Gilded Age – as well as gas for lighting.
The Breakers has entertained presidents, royalty and guests from across the world for more than 125 years and today is visited by hundreds of thousands of people each year. It is the flagship of the Newport Mansions and a world-famous iconic image of the City-by-the-Sea. The Breakers was designated a National Historic Landmark in 1994.

I'm not saying i stole this from other pages, but i did lol but not a serious argument.
Literally just arguing over something dumb like who ate the last slice of pizza or where to go for dinner. I love this ask so much 🤣
Also helllooooooooo hope you are doing well! 😇💜
Hahah well 'anonymous', cute question! 🤣
ASH would respond in kind, if they didn't already beat MC to it, lol. There's no scenario where Ash is turning down making out with MC [there's no scenario if you haven't chosen the heartbreak route, lolol] 🫣
...but if they did eat the last slice of pizza I can see Ash just pushing the crust at MC's mouth 💀
JULES would sigh rather dramatically and give you a little tsktsk for not going along with whatever game they were currently playing. And then, depending on apologies or brattiness... 🫡
ORI would give in, for a little bit. And then get a bit flustered and want to make sure MC wasn't still arguing or wanting dinner or whatever. Then they would suggest moving to a more comfortable location to continue the argument 🥰
POE would be the one to really dig their heels in, brick walling with an unbearably boring, firm lipped kiss until MC answered/relented, and then it would be GAME ON LIKE DONKEY KONG!! 🔥
Thanks for the ask Phantom! Hope you're well toooo ☀️

Here we have Jules "Darker-Skinned Guy With a Buzzcut #2" Fournier and Yves "Perpetually Angry Six-Head" Bernard.
I changed Jules quite a lot, just to make him look different from Elliot St. James, with whom I often confuse him. In the end, I think he ended up looking sort of Indian, though now that I'm looking at him again, I think I need to lower his eyes/brows or maybe his entire face a bit.
Most of Yves's problems were fixed with new hair and moving his face up a bit. Other than that, I pretty much just changed his eyebrows and raised them above his eyes a little. I don't know why, but a lot of the Champs les Sims men have their eyebrows squished down right over their eyes, which makes them look angry, while the women have theirs raised way above their eyes.

HI JULES. 25 27 and 50!!!!!
HI CALEB!!! love you forever 🩷
25. favorite middle grade books: i’m the number one middle grade book fan okay!!!! especially fantasy!!! here are some of my most beloveds: howl’s moving castle, dragon slippers series, the lands of elyon series, the mighty heart of sunny st. james, the enchanted forest chronicles, the keeper of the lost cities series, ella enchanted, the wide awake princess series, tales of the frog princess, septimus heap series, the castle glower series, the percy jackson series, the fablehaven series, the mysterious benedict society, princess academy series, the series of unfortunate events, half upon a time series, ruby holler, the girl who could fly, edgar & ellen, beyonders series, the candy shop war, the tapestry series….okay i HAVE to stop somewhere. but there are so many. i love middle grade fiction!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
27. first book i remember reading as a kid: okay so i have this really clear memory of reading a picture book about bunnies. they were very cartoon style bunnies and one of them was pink. they might have been racing (?). unfortunately i have no clue what this book is called. honestly i don’t really have very linear memory from that time so idk if that was the memory that comes first chronologically. another book that i know u read very early and a lot was are you my mother? (the picture book not. the alison bechdel comic. but that would be crazy)
50. what book have i never read but always hope to find at some point in the future: can i be honest im not quite sure what this means. i have three interpretations…
1. type of book i have always been looking for but never found a book that fits: in this case the answer is hehe the two wips (<- they say as if they have actually begun working on them) that exist in my head. the terrible lesbian girls in my brain <3 one day i will make you real….
2. book i have never read but want to read: in this case there are. so many answers. but one that has been particularly haunting me (heh) is the haunting of hill house. this summer will be my time okay!!!!!
3. book i have never read but want to find a copy of: i mean this is also a pretty long list. it lines up pretty neatly with the one above. i will say i have been specifically looking for copies of moby dick and the brothers karamazov the last couple times i’ve been to the used bookstore but have not found them yet….alas
anyways hopefully one of those answers the question !!
the ask game 📚

First of all, I'm a bookstan 📚 and I'm brazilian 🇧🇷
Fantasy ones are my favorites 🧚🧝🥀
A fan of ACoTaR, but apparently on the opposite side – supporter of Nesta, Eris, Tamlin and Lucien, and not a big fan of IC 🌹🔥
Hufflepuff is my house, but I have one foot in Ravenclaw and the other in Slytherin.
Holly Black is the true queen of teen fantasy, and George R. R. Martin is certainly the king of this genre, with Tolkien practically being a God.
In A Dance with Dragons, maybe Team Green? I still don't know. I certainly love Alicent, but I recognize why Rhaenyra felt betrayed.
Cardan and Jude are the best, and Laurent and Damen are not far behind. In short, I vibe with anything about these four 🐍🗡️👑
I've loved Peeta since the first scene, but Lucy Gray has my heart too.
Never tried to argue with me about SW. One of two: either you leave crying or you will listen to me forever. About Star Trek, I still don't know much about it, but I love Discovery.
Anne Rice introduced me to gothic literature and Lestat is a fucking king. Sorry, Dracula. I love your story, but Lestat is Lestat.
Frankstein, The Phantom of the Opera and The Picture of Dorian Gray and Carmilla have a treasured place on my bookcase.
I've never read Dune or Jules Verne, but they're on my list.
These are the things I'm going to talk about here, so that's it.
I'm in love with the Dark King Sarcean – my baby Will Kempen – and his top lieutenant, Anharion – my other baby James St. Clair – from Dark Rise 🖤
