HC is so sarcastic and dislikes LQQ so much i'm crying 😭😭 This part in TGCF AD Ep 16:

XL: Lang Qianqiu is a good kid.

HC: Really? What are his good traits? Gege, describe it for me to hear, perhaps I might even be moved.

XL: Hmm... For example, he's guileless.

HC: You mean dull-witted.

XL (thinking of another good trait): He is very honest!

HC: You mean dull-witted.

XL: He is -

HC (interrupting, repeats even more slowly and lazily/contemptuously): You mean dull-witted.

That video is bullshit 😭 Starting from bts members coming with bodyguards and managers but those girls coming alone, with one of them maskless. You’re believing a random person story just because the caption is in korean 😭 be fr and get over it.

I don't know what it is with all the post-surgery drugs they put me on but for two days now I've been consistently having dreams that I'm playing ffxiv and every single button on my bar has been moved one spot to the left and whenever I hit one it's like surprise! it was actually a different button and the icon changes. it's mildly infuriating but mostly hilarious

[haiimrowie]

The worst tragedy that hit this country happened in my city, at the intersection of two main roads by the mall a police cordon was up and lots of flowers were being laid there. An armed cop stood guard, a few of em, and down the road a short ways was the mosque. It was nearly surreal, nothing like had ever happened in Aotearoa, with sadly 51 people being murdered, another 40 injured, and so many families affected. My brother lost a classmate, and he was at a climate protest in the main green space beside Masjid Al Noor when it happened. A terrifying couple hours when information on what was happening in the city was all jumbled. My heart goes out to themall who passed that day, every time I see the gorgeous fiftyone flowers mural on my way into town.

purpose of this poll: basically im wondering if my gran having a pistol was a typical american experience

the ads that i see on my dashboard randomly always make me laugh, they really allow anything on here!

❝ I know. ❞ Ego is built on a set of obscure moral codes. It won't break her to admit fault. Not always. Not in times like this. She speaks without hesitance, even if lips press tightly, shoulders rising, and her gaze takes a second to return. It would be easier to argue with him, she thinks. But, no, she's not that petty. He was right. She's gotten obsolete. She can't stop looking at it, how disgusting a mark, how much pain. What damage would she have gotten instead. Would she have even lived without intervenience.

Eyes narrow. Offended by the sight, unimpressed with her own weakness. She gets closer to inspect. Memorise it. ❝ Back there, I failed. ❞ Let the truth hurt her. Let it tear her apart. If it pushed her, pain was worth it all. ❝ It's my mistake. But I don't need people protecting me from it. If my screw up gets me killed, then I deserve to die for it. ❞ And it brings her pride, in all the messed up ways. It fuels a spark. For there was a time death didn't scare her; if she died, she died because she was weak.

❝ And I'm not one of your men. ❞ He won't listen. She doubts he ever will. He's got a view all his own, sticks to it like glue; she hates it, and, she likes it about him. She has her own code. Never so straight forward. Don't lose your head. There's only one way to get her way here. Stronger. Stronger still. Let competition steer her to victory again and again. ❝ ... so don't put yourself at risk for me. ❞ Why so kind; oh, she's not entirely heartless. ❝ I can't allow it. Make a different choice. ❞

Laura, Levi knows, has a needle-point focus. She understands her mission, follows it down to a bloody t, and when she sinks her claws into any one matter, she's loathed to surrender; she's loathed to stop. So, when she slips into his room, he isn't baffled that she's stubborn. Rather, he'd known she would fight, had deduced she she would argue, but this trickle of emotions coloring her words? Now, that, he admits, is quite surprising. And then her face--

Conflicted, Levi thinks. There's a squeeze in her words, and it screams conflicted.

Still, Laura, emotions whirling madly perhaps, smothers it all in a dizzying flash. It'll take more than him to down her, she boasts, and with her voice just shy of its usual venom, Levi accepts. "Probably," he says.

She stares. He folds up his shirt. He is a beautiful, disastrous work, flesh carved in mesmerizingly ugly ways, and seeing that color of blue like oceans-- I never asked for this. I don't need your protection. Levi thinks. What does he say to that, the silence throbs? This 'heartless', 'twisted' man hates mourning, after all. He loathes every casualty, wanted Laura kept alive, and setting his shirt on his chair, he'd done just that. "You have a shitty way of asking for apologies," he starts. And furthermore: "Don't get it twisted. I own the choices I make, and I'm not about to let you act like this one's yours." Their fault. It isn't, and god, this suicidal idiot-- "If you don't want anyone getting hurt for you anymore, don't give them the opportunity. Don't lose your head."

In a vote that received the unanimous support of all elected officials, the National Assembly "vigorously rejects" the comments of Liberal MP Angelo Iacono that Quebec would be stronger if it were an officially bilingual province. The motion was presented on Tuesday by Quebec's Minister of the French Language, Jean-François Roberge, along with members of the Quebec Liberal Party, Québec solidaire and Parti québécois. The National Assembly also wishes to recall "its rich history, punctuated by bold gestures to defend and ensure the vitality of its only official language, French." It also affirms "without nuance" that "the strength of the Quebec nation certainly does not lie in bilingualism, but in its distinct character, with its unique culture and its resolutely francophone specificity."

A post shared by Glo Dowell (@justchillandshipit)

I wasn't sure about sharing here because I don't think they are in these spaces, but I reconsidered. If this show helps you, like it helps me, you might feel something similar to how I feel. I'm a small blogger here and a smaller one there. They may never see my post, but if 911 has helped you, maybe you can do your own post, and they will see it. I've seen some horrible crap in fandoms, no lie, but I've also seen genuine kindness, extraordinary artistic talent, and fascinating meta as well. There is a lot of good here, and I feel like the creators, actors, and crew are good people too, not just the cast we see weekly. (Naturally, they are fabulous.) There are so many people who put so much into making this show. I don't know what they are thinking and feeling right now, but it can't hurt for them to hear how much the work they do matters.

Maybe, I'm too much in my feelings. If I've somehow offended anyone with the suggestion, it wasn't intentional. Love to you all.

UPDATE

***I'm reblogging. I have a lot of blocked tags. I do this to curate my experience, especially in these dark times. However, everyone has been posting about the verbal attacks and threats against Oliver and Ryan. What they said about Ryan actually made me cry. I'm not going to repost those comments. It would trigger many, and I don't want to give them satisfaction. You have to be a really disgusting human being to say the things that are being said. I don't care who your favorite ship is those words are sickening. I get everyone's anger. I feel it too, but being petty by laughing and mocking their ship makes us look no better, and it accomplishes nothing.

What I believe we should be concerned about is how this affects the actors. It would be heartbreaking to see them walk away from the show because of the Trumplike sickness of these people. Now, more than ever, the best thing we can do is combat their hate by giving the actors 100% more LOVE. Let them know their value. I would tell you to report them, but if these comments are being made on Twitter/X, Musk owns that, and he will soon be working in Tr#mp's administration. In other words, *Twitter/X is not going to have a problem with racist comments. Remind the actors that what they do matters, even in times like these--especially in times like these. I think everyone on that show could stand to hear something positive right now, but as far as I know, Ryan and Oliver are the only ones being attacked like this and what was said to Ryan was simply repulsive.

Like I said before, I am a small blogger here and a smaller one on Instagram. You are welcome to go there and try to boost my post, but if you are a big blog with a larger media reach, I think it would be better for you to create your own appreciation post and encourage your followers to do the same. Naturally, everyone has their own ideas, and fighting with them may make you feel better in the moment, but your love is the only thing that is ever going to be stronger than hate.

People are comparing Clever to that bag of dust Sharptongue????😭

LOL NA

Clever has always stood up for and defended Hope, when Hope was given a cruel name by her mother Clever gave her a kinder name immediately after, eventhough Clever knew Jasper was bigger and stronger than her and that she knew her family would see her as the bad guy she STILL RISKED HER LIFE AND THEN DIED TO PROTECT THEM

And she never let the genuine love she has for her sister justify the abuse Hope faced

Meanwhile Sharptongue let her grandson's murderer into the pride and didn't even seem to case that he had killed her grandson and harmed her granddaughter, AND THEN LATER WE FIND OUT SHE DIDNT EVEN HAVE TO, she never really stood up for Nothing aside from calling her brave, she died from illness(??) and was never relevant afterwards

They're not even SIMILAR

Like I said, it's just another way for MP fans to say we 'ripped off' the show without actually reading the comic before accusing us of plagiarism.

It's right up there with them also saying that the Thundering Mountains is 'a hidden land' like the Shifting Place when... lol, how are the Thundering Mountains lions hiding the place exactly? It's the biggest pride in the area and Obsidian outright states they welcome Travellers from far and wide.

Not exactly 'hidden', but these are also people who think the name Nothing means the opposite of said word so who cares about actual definitions when you're a shameless stan? lol - RJ

_(:з)∠)_ It's a holiday today and even when I'm out for errands, Xavier still worms his way into my brain...

Ramblings about Xavier and his red collar ahead~ (story spoilers, be warned) Apologies first. I'm not the best with words or saying things out from my brain... so It might be a bit jumbled, or I might've missed some things <( _ _ )>

I'm not going to be talking about anything new. Theories and such be everywhere already, all that's been speculated is all out there ><;;;

It's just my brain, earlier in the day, decided to re-frame my thinking about the collar a bit and just letting all these thoughts out somewhere that isn't inside my brain... moving on ➡➡➡

So... what we DO know about the collar is that it's something restricting Xavier in some way. It's just not clear HOW it's restricting him.

Collar is also something of the Ever Company's property, most likely. Since there's an icon on the collar that belongs to Ever Company. At most, I would think it's from the Ever Company that is from the time during Anecdote 3. (What if... Xavier is the son of the Ever Company president in Anec3... 🤔 I mean he's got men in suits tailing him all over... but that's a thought for another day)

Up to today, my guess is that the collar restricts his use of his Evol, on top of other things. Restricting his Evol, in a way, makes him "weaker". Xavier is very good (I would guess) at using his Evol and it's powerful enough to cause huge light explosions too. So he's dangerous (to the people that wants to control him) and restricting him in that manner helps to keep Xav in check.

Unsure if the Evol Resonance here being strong is due to Xavier's Evol itself already being very strong... OR... that the two share a deep bond since times of yore and she was just able to resonate much easier and stronger with him.

Okay. Main thoughts and speculations down below 😂 I dragged this long enough, and I'm rambling on a bit much...

The collar, restricts Xavier's Evol and...

Xavier, always overdoes it and uses his Evol past the allowed limit.

It hurts him in return, but he usually doesn't care any ways. If it's to save people and MC especially, he WILL do it

He can choose to ignore the limiter, but it will only cause him to use even more of his Evol just to overcome the limiter AND do what he needed to do

So to explain, an example in terms of MP from RPG games: His Light Explosion usually costs 50MP. The Collar restricts his MP to be only 40MP. Now, for Xavier to use his Light Explosion skill again, he needs 60MP instead of the usual 50MP the reason for my above thought is simply because BOTH his Hunter's Watch AND Collar were warning him in his Myth

This makes him even more spent, makes him use 2 syringes to recover... and potentially speeds up whatever process is causing the BackTrackers on Earth to turn into Wanderers (???)

If he were to resonate with MC however, maybe he can bypass the limiter, me thinks. But obviously he is very aware that he can't abuse this.

There's a possibility that he will still get the side effects after that, maybe in a smaller amount... and it's also to protect MC herself

Uh... I feel like I had more thoughts to blurb out... but after this many hours I think I might've forgotten them... 🫠🫠🫠🫠🫠🫠🫠

~+~+~+~+~

And... this is how many times (that I managed to catch, that is) his collar has flared up: 6 times

(it'll be 7 if one assumes that when we meet Xavier, and he's sleeping... during that time he has already overused his Evol which caused the Metaflux explosion and was sleeping to "recharge", that his collar definitely flared red at that time)

Who knows how many more times before the Main story at this point in time (22 May 2024. Dating this just in case lol. Tumblr doesn't really show timestamps on the dash) that he's used his Evol til the collar turned red... and how many more times he is allowed to keep using it like that...

This feels to me like an unbreakable cycle at this point for Xavier... T-T

Both him and MC being each other's greatest strength and their greatest weakness 😩🥺👌

Ughhhh I feel the MASSIVE AMOUNT OF FEELS AND ANGST COMING WITH THIS MAN 😭😭😭😭 Please let this bebe live!

Marco’s Diary

Dear diary,

After three years of hard work, studying and training, the cadet corp graduation is finally nearing. I really hope I did my best and rank high enough to enter the Military Police - If so, then my dream of serving the king is not to far ahead.

But to be honest, I feel that my dream will not be complete without Jean. I’ve always been with him for these years and I once thought of him as my best friend… but then I realised that I feel something stronger for him.

I fell in love with my best friend.

I tried to confess once or even twice before but out of nervousness about how it’ll affect our friendship, I cowardly held back or changed the subject. But I can’t take it anymore, we both want to join the MPs anyway so I have to tell him I love him sometime soon - at least before it’s too late.

So that's why after we graduate and we sign up for our future military, I’ll go all out and tell him how I feel. If he rejects me than that’ll be fine, as long as we still remain close friends it’ll be enough for me to stay by his side. He’s a part of my world and I wish to not lose it, no matter what.

~ Marco Bodt, year 850
