#marley on xena

[marley-manson]

man i just love so much that fundamentally xena is a show in which the main theme is exploring the often complex ethical implications of various kinds of violence (including the stance of 'violence is great actually') and it's overwhelmingly women who commit that violence and whose acts of violence are focused on as a source of drama

and then on top of that the women - and there are a shitload of them - are all gay/bi

like if that doesn't sound like the greatest piece of media ever made, we are very different people

[hetakiba]

Tagged by: @marley-manson THANK YOU (I voted for xena on your poll lol)

@marley-manson Gabrielle has her own kind of humour. Xena is more kooky. But we know that’s Lucy.

Lucy gave her that kookiness.

“Who cracks the most jokes in the relationship?”

Xena. You wouldn’t think so given her broody and stoic personality and her dark past constantly haunting her but Gabrielle just brings it out in her. Her silly side is her happy side and it’s honestly adorable to watch her be like this. What’s great about it is it happens really early. It’s almost like having a companion that loves her and that she loves back makes Xena a completely different person from the person she is when alone. Probably because she has more to do than think about how much pain and damage she’s caused to so many. The guilt and shame can’t eat away at her when there’s always someone with her to see the best in her and to keep her away from the suicidal mentality. And Gabrielle didn’t know it for a long time, but that’s exactly what she did for Xena the moment they met. Pulled her away from self-hatred and suicidal ideation and not a lot of people talk about how important Gabrielle is to Xena in this way. When Xena calls her her “source” and “light” - she means her happiness.

So Xena is only the Xena we know and love because Gabrielle is there with her as her cornerstone to living. So seeing her crack jokes at Gabrielle is honestly one of the most significant things about their dynamic and why the comedy episodes are deep and substantial episodes even if they don’t seem like it on the surface because they’re not really about anything. But that’s the point. They’re not about anything… except them. They become the plot. They become the narrative. Their relationship immediately becomes the point. And shows with WLW representation in today don’t do that not just because the WLW characters are rarely the leading characters. But also because they don’t realize that wrapping the characterization around the narrative is the wrong way of representing the relationship between the WLW characters. You always wrap the narrative around the WLW characterization. You make the characterization the focus of the story that is being told instead of the other way around. Xena absolutely excels in this to the point where what you pick up on when you watch the show is timeless because they always leave it open to interpretation.

It is so very important that you see Xena crack jokes, smile, laugh, have fun and just be ridiculous and I swear to fucking god if it wasn’t for Lucy playing her, improvising her lines and just being a total dork… and Renee just bouncing off Lucy’s energy so naturally…

Xena would not be XENA. She’d be lost and lonely. It’d be a different dynamic. It would be a different show. And it wouldn’t have captured my heart anywhere near as much as it has since I was only 5 years old. No, seeing Xena be silly, stupid and soft is EVERYTHING. This characterization is crucial to the storytelling of it. It’s fundamental to what ‘Xena: Warrior Princess’ is. Which is a shows-long story about redemptive love and the power that love can have on a tortured soul. A soul that cannot heal itself and be at rest without its significant other salving and endeavouring to calm it. And please take note that I’m not just talking about Xena in saying this. I’m talking about Gabrielle too and how the roles shift depending on the developments. Depending on where the individual characters are at and that constant rotation of that as if they’re in an eternal dance and how much more romantic that is compared to your average TV show WLW relationship.

Something so seemingly small as a cracked joke at each other even now and again has a very big impact on who these characters are and what they become. When you look at every little detail in the characters as I do and how it all connects to the bigger picture of what the show is attempting to represent to the watcher - it is profound what you can learn and continue to be taught from it no matter how many times you watch it. It’s an incredible timeless show.

I really didn’t intend to write all this in answering this question but I’m an automatic-writer so… yeah. 👌

Xena is the best Jacob Marley of all time. she just walks into the room as herself, yells "BE NICE OR DIE" and jumps out the window

[kissing-monsters]

Three ships: Because I was tagged by @marley-manson the first three that came to mind were Hawkeye/Trapper, Griffith/Guts and Xena/Gabrielle so those, sure.

First ship: I think it was maybe... Xena/Gabrielle? But it wasn't in the sense that I in any way knew what fandom was or what shipping was, so maybe that doesn't count. In the sense of looked for fanfiction, it might have been Bulma/Vegeta lol.

Last song: Staring At The Sun - TV On The Radio or The Pot - Tool depending if you count that I switched it off halfway through the Tool song.

Currently Reading: The Power of The Dog by Thomas Savage.

Last movie: Jesus I haven't watched anything but wrestling in a hundred years. I truly don't know.

Currently Watching: ... Wrestling and playthroughs of Elden Ring.

Currently consuming: Water.

Currently craving: Maltesers, bed and the Revolution Punk v MJF dog collar match.

Tagging: Whoever wants to do it say I sent you! But uhhh @saxifraga-x-urbium @fooltook @todayiwrotenothing @sunsetcowboy @goldenmoonsault @phoenixsplashes @futuremxmothman @theyknewittoo @purgatori

Hello fellow Lumberjanes fans!! After reading Issue 75 I have Many Thoughts (Head Full) so I wrote this little fic (below the cut for your convenience), please enjoy <3

They tell the younger kids it's a slumber party. Something to celebrate the end of summer, and the promise of coming back next year.

The younger kids know they're lying.

"The yeti's are here," a little girl says matter-of-factly to Jo. "And all the big bugs, and the mermaids and the selkies. And the selkies never come."

Jo looks at her sash, covered in badges like she was waiting to show her parents. She's only at Seedpod level, not even a Sapling yet. She's got a few badges - Pungeon Master, May The Forge Be With You, Daylight Savor - and she sewed them on herself, by the looks of it. Maybe her counselor helped her out with the first one. Jo wants to ask her where her counselor is, wants to find someone else to take this poor kid off her hands, but then Jo remembers that Marley said. We did a head count and we have all the scouts, but...

She realizes that Jen was one of the lucky ones.

"Everything's gonna be okay," Jo tells the girl, managing to spit the lie out even though it's catching between her teeth. "It's just a slumber party. Then you get to go home in the morning, and it'll be fun."

The kid opens her mouth to say something else, but Jo's gone before she has the chance.

April's sitting in a hammock, one of the ones the Roswell's tied up high near the ceiling. Upon second glance, Jo realizes that Ripley's up there, too, though not for long - as soon as she spots Jo, she's speeding down the beam in a hurry, and before she knows it Jo sees an orange t-shirt and a streak of blue at her side.

"Are we sleeping up there?" Asks Jo.

"Nah, Dighton called dibs," April says. "But they're letting us hang out up here while they check on the moose stables. Looking for stragglers, folks who mighta been left behind."

"Me and April were looking through her scrapbook!" Ripley says, buzzing with excitement. You wouldn't think that a horrible catastrophic event was currently threatening to literally consume all of their lives. Except that Ripley's always like this, or at least, seems to be: bright and glittery and jumping up-and-down, with a grin so wide and toothy you could see how (The Other) Jonesy was willing to accept her as one of her own.

There's a noise from above, and Jo sees that April's started to shimmy down to the ground, now. She's got a satchel over her shoulder - Jo's satchel, she realizes - and her scrapbook's under her arm. April lands with a small Thud! on the ground in front of them, strikes a Spider-Man pose, and then stands, reaching out her elbow to Jo.

Elbow bump.

Bring it up.

Lock thumbs.

Wiggly fingers.

Peace sign.

The handshake is surprisingly calming, though maybe it shouldn't be. It reminds Jo that she's still here. She's still with April. The world is ending, not yet, not if they've got any say in it. Ripley lets out a small, longing sigh.

"I wish I had a secret handshake buddy."

The sun's setting outside the windows, and the girls stand there and watch it go down. All of them. Every cabin - Cosmos, Zodiac, Dighton, Luna, Woolpit, Eclipse, Roswell, Dyatlov, Aurora, Walcott, Dartmoor, Xena, Voynich, Roanoke. They stand, some clustered close together, others turned away. On each other's shoulders, in arms, in hugs and embraces and one impressive cheerleading lift from the Xena cabin, who've been working on it all summer and haven't had the time to show it off before. They watch the sun go down over the forest, and then it's gone.

For the first time in the world, the forest is silent.

Mal pulls out her guitar.

"Me and Emily and Wren have been working on something," she says. "I was helping them get some campfire song badges the other day."

Someone lights a small fire in the mess hall fireplace. Mal takes a seat right beside it, the warm glow making her seem braver than she is. Emily and Wren sit beside her, because they've already been dragged into this, whether they like it or not, and honestly, their song isn't half bad (at least, that was the verdict with Mackenzie when they sang it for her - they were technically supposed to run it past three people to get the badge, but Vanessa didn't need to know that).  

"When the world is ending we can sing and we can play, dancing in the forest as we laugh our lives away. Watch the stars go out my Lumberjane, and catch them one by one. Never know the place you go that changed your fear to fun."

Bubbles bounces off of Molly's head and scurries over to Ripley. They bow at each other and then begin to dance. It's not long before others join in. Mackenzie and Feryal start square-dancing. April and Jo never quite got their Go Ball-istic badges, but they manage. When someone trips, someone else catches them, and everyone laughs. Mal, Wren, and Emily's song has a tempo that's surprisingly upbeat. No one listens to the words.

When it's over, Mal sings them some cool indie song no one's ever heard of, and then a Disney request from a girl in Aurora (it's mostly improv'd, and some other girls jump in to help Mal find the chords, but overall she doesn't do a half-bad job), and then Lumberjanes Way, and then they tire themselves out and Seafarin' Karen (left in charge of the kids, left to guard them and make sure nothing bad happens to them) tells them they "ought to be gettin' some shuteye, dontcha think" and then before they know it they're off to bed.

They tuck themselves into sleeping bags, hammocks, makeshift beds, literal beds (some of the girls in Voynich and Eclipse just got their Wood You Or Wouldn't You woodworking badges, and are feeling handy right now) and someone sings a lullaby, though no one could tell you who. The counselors are noticeably absent; Vanessa's watching the perimeter by the volleyball courts, and Jen's on the porch of Rosie's cabin, and the others are all scattered somewhere in-between. The Roanokes are right in the middle of it all (because aren't they always?) fast asleep in the center of the mess hall.

Five girls sleeping, all in a row. Molly, Mal, Ripley, April, Jo.

Mal dreams about falling through the ocean. Ripley dreams of dinosaurs and cats, all named Jonesy, and siblings she's been missing for a while. April's punching something in her dream - she thinks it's a fox, but she's not sure. Jo's competing in a robotics contest against someone she doesn't quite recognize.

Molly dreams about a silver deer, racing through the forest, beckoning her softly to follow. The deer has antlers, a large, proud rack, but Molly knows its a girl. She has a bow around her neck, and a quiver of arrows. She's... she's going off to go fight something.

Molly wakes up.

man nothing in the world hits like a novel length xena fic all about her violence

the one i'm re-reading rn is like xena descending back into really horrific brutality because of her intense guilt over her evil past - like she's projecting onto a new enemy and lashing out extra hard, somewhat ironically, because she sees her past in this particular warlord army - and like, where else can you find a female character who gets this treatment from fandom?

the violence is so perfectly detailed to highlight how fucked up it is, gabrielle is horrified and trying and failing to pull her back, and it's all xena. she has all the agency in the world here, it's all about violence she's committing of her own free will, not forced by circumstances or survival or a mysterious organization, not born into the killer lifestyle, but just driven by sadism and lust for power, and now sadism and guilt

and while this particular fic goes extra hard on the theme of violence, like my favourite thing about the xena fandom is that it crops up to some degree in fic all the time, because it's such a basic aspect of the show. the last fic i read also coincidentally delved into xena's evil actions in her past and her guilt and her present day violence and how it impacts her relationship with gabrielle. conqueror fic where xena never turned to heroism is an entire popular subgenre. plotty action fic where xena grins while decapitating people abounds.

and on top of that 90% the fic is gay

absolute paradise honestly

The 100 Most Popular Male and Female Dog Names of 2022!

Are you looking for some new ideas for your dog’s name? You’ve come to the right place. Many dogs come with a name that has already been given to them by a shelter or rescue organization. Sometimes the dog has been attached to that name, and it suits them, but other times you have the opportunity to give your new family member and best buddy a name that is truly unique to you.

Most of us give a lot of thought to naming the new dog or puppy as it is important to us. We understand that our dog’s name will tell us a lot about our personality, insights, and sense of humor. Still, we primarily want our dogs to have an awesome name that complements their distinctive appearance, spirit, and personality.

Some people choose names based on their favorite literary or film character or a favorite TV program character. Some folks like traditional doggo names. We’ve also heard of dogs being named after their favorite foods.

We’re excited to reveal the most popular dog names for 2022!!

Cecrops: The fear of guilt/freeing our minds

In the FAN EXPO Canada convention that Lucy and Renee were at a few month ago, they answered a question on what they thought the core theme and message of the show was. Now, Lucy’s not good at giving straight or serious answers to questions in conventions, but I think she did very well in explaining what the fundamental message to ‘Xena: Warrior Princess’ is all about and what the character, Xena, felt inside. Renee said that she thought it was all about redemption. Lucy added to that by saying there’s an underlying message under the theme of redemption in the show. A greater message. The way she explained it reminded me of the episode ‘Lost Mariner’, when Xena was lecturing Cecrops on the weight of his conscience over condemning so many people to a cursed life on his ship. He spoke about how he was afraid to end the curse because he felt he didn’t deserve to live at all, as so many have lost their lives because of him. And because he was immortal, he feared every day of life.

When you think about redemption…. what does it actually mean to you? Redemption from or for what? Being saved from your sins or for what you’ve done or said? In religion we think of redemption as repentance. Being saved by some Higher power. Asking for forgiveness from God or Jesus. Asking to be saved from Hell. What about feeling that redemption in yourself? The meaning to redemption for me is about freeing yourself from the mental slavery we put ourselves under when we know we’ve done wrong and feel we can’t ever make up for it. It has nothing do with salvation from any sovereign. Not for me, anyway

“Emancipate yourselves from mental slavery. None but ourselves can free our minds.” As Bob Marley put it in his famous Redemption Song.

This song, from how I interpret it, is about freeing ourselves from the way we feel because of what we’ve done or said. Because of the sins of our past. Because of the pain and damage we’ve caused to others… to those we love and that love us. I believe you have to first allow others to forgive you before you can ever forgive yourself. You have to feel worthy of that second chance and of being forgiven. You have to be able to unchain yourself from all the wrong you’ve done and the only way you can do that is by giving back. Making it right again. Correcting the damage you’ve caused in hopes of taking away the pain. For others and … for yourself… otherwise… you’re never going to forgive yourself.

Redemption definetly has more to do with self-worth and self-love, as Lucy said. And I would also say self-awareness too… because if you’ve recognized where you’ve done wrong and you can see what you’ve become and you’re able to turn around from that… you’re on your way. But it’s extremely difficult because you always have in the back of your mind the thought that you don’t have the right to victimize yourself when you take on the world’s sufferings for them… but that you also don’t want to see yourself as any kind of hero either. You are mentally bound to that mindset of deservedness. So, it’s about freeing yourself from it.

I don’t know if Xena ever did forgive herself. I’d like to believe she did. But I can understand why she may not have. She received her ultimate redemption for all the evil she had done in AFIN, yes. But did she feel that in herself? Did she free her mind from her mental slavery? I don’t know because she decided to stay dead! Throughout the whole show she was seeking a redemption that she never allowed herself at any point. I can only hope that somewhere down the line in their adventures together that Gabrielle got through to her and helped her reconcile with her darkness and exorcise her demons. Otherwise that woman was suicidal her entire life. The only person she ever listened to was Gabrielle because she was the only one who could make her bring down her walls and just for the moment, be the person she was without thinking about how she had hurt so many people in her past. Without worrying about how she was going to atone for it… and constantly wondering if she ever could. Not riddled with thoughts and feelings of extreme guilt and contempt.

For me it’s particularly important that she did learn to forgive herself because I am still in the process of allowing others to forgive me. I’ve got a long way to go before I can ever free my own mind and forgive myself from all I’ve done and said. I always ask myself whether I deserve redemption or not. But I don’t mean being saved from anything or anyone. I mean being able to allow myself to be forgiven, and especially by myself because if I don’t feel I’m worthy of forgiveness, how can I ever expect others to forgive me? That’s what it comes down to for me. Freeing myself from the chains I’ve shackled myself to all these years because I really do feel like I cannot atone for it all. I just don’t believe I can ever forgive myself before I have been forgiven by others. But the problem is allowing myself to be forgiven. I’m in the exact same state Xena was in mentally. Despite all the good I have done already or all that I can and will do… I just don’t feel I am worthy of such forgiveness. I don’t think I ever will be.

I think Lucy is right. Redemption has a lot more underlying meaning than just feeling regretful. I mean what if regret and guilt is all you can ever feel? There’s no point in receiving a redemption that you don’t feel you deserve at all. How do you even get out of that destructive mind cycle? It never stops or ends. It’s a constant. And I certainly don’t have a Gabrielle to help me through it and to make me feel worthy and loved. Something Gabrielle said that really resonated with me in the episode, ‘Forgiven’, was that it’s easier to believe in yourself when someone else has believed in you first. I don’t have anyone to believe in me. I always have to believe in myself. Maybe that’s the answer to my problem.

BONUS: “Till love redeems you.”
