love how the fandom collectively reimagined drew's character. recently had a cousin of mine pick up the lost hero, and she told me, "reese, i don't get how you like drew. she's so mean to piper." and i kind of sat there for a moment trying to reorganize canon from fanon.

I SAW A NEW GUY TODAY LET ME INTRODUCE YOU

FORKED FUNGUS BEETLE!!!!!

[bilboyagathechickenfootedhobbit]

just wanted to say from your tags you sound like a phenomenal mother, thank you for allowing your kid(s) to be as gnc as they wanna be and just be free to express themselves harmlessly!!! :'] it really gives me hope in the future <3

Thank you so much 🥹 I was lucky enough to be raised by a very awesome feminist tomboy mom who, while not gnc, didn’t cater to social expectations of femininity and I’m just trying to be even a fraction of the mother she was to me. My son is pretty gnc and always mistaken for a girl. But he’s so firm in his sense of self that anytime someone calls him a girl for wearing pink or rainbows or sparkles, he just gives them a weird look and is like “well I’M wearing this Elsa shirt and I’m a BOY, so OBVIOUSLY it’s a BOYS shirt.” It’s great. I was mistaken for a boy until I hit puberty at 16, so this just seems par for the course for my family 😂 I don’t know…..kids have so little time to be kids anymore it seems. Everyone wants to attach a label, a personality, a ✨descriptor✨ to their kids younger and younger and I just want him to run feral in the desert and fall down and play dress up and try on my sparkly jewelry and paint his hair pink and marker his arms and legs and pretend to be a tiger and just…..be a kid however he wants to be a kid. He has the rest of his life to figure out who he is; right now he’s just a bundle of energy in a rainbow wrapping.

*me waking up in a cold sweat in the middle of the night*

Wriothesley and Uncle Iroh

Just- those two

Tea besties in another life change my mind.

They would be the best tea duo

They would exchange recipes

They would spend hours talking and everyone would think it’s some serious diplomacy stuff- EXCEPT NO. ITS TEA AND THEM CRYING AT THE FACT THAT THEY FOUND SOMEONE WHO IS AS INSANE ABOUT TEA AS THEY ARE

Wriothesley would totally play pai sho with Uncle Iroh if there’s tea. And of course there’s tea, Uncle Iroh is not a degenerate, he is a man of true culture

Wriothesley just inviting Uncle Iroh to tea, not expecting much since fucking everyone keeps turning him down (I’d join you for tea Wrio, even though I only like green tea, because I’m polite dammit and my anxiety wouldn’t let me say no, I’d still be happy to join you, please someone join this man for tea, it’s all he’s asking for-), and then Uncle Iroh says “yes” and Wrio just.

Freezes.

And is all like :0 really????

And from then on, Wriothesley would die for Uncle Iroh like the rest of us

Wriothesley would full on deck Zuko for his complete disregard of tea pre-Ba Sing Se tea shop. It would be glorious.

Lanky 16 year old exiled prince with anger and daddy issues vs tired deadpan tea fanatic who could freeze his ass with one punch and has passed the midlife crisis stage of his life

Wrio is an orphan right? Or is that still just speculation? Point is-

Iroh would 100% adopt this deadpan humor stray kid after one convo of Wrio managing to bring up tea in every other sentence

I just-

I need this duo

[hestiasroom]

does anyone else's mom think they are "mean" for having boundaries? or is that just my mom?

Childhood story!

When I was a child my older cousin, Wizard Gem, and I would play pretend fantasy scenarios!

We even made our own two original characters, they were sisters! Hers was the royal alchemist while mine was a brave knight :)

I was a bit obsessed with the whole "true love" fairy tale trope at the time, almost all books I read were about it. Id always make up different partners, mostly royals, for me to rescue and fall in love with

I tried giving her a partner many times til she sat me down and explained how it made her uncomfortable

We then had a long talk where she helped me understand not every story needs to end in romance, how not every princess or prince will fall in love with who rescues them and how knights often just save people in need cause its their job! Also how not only girls needed rescue, you dont need to be a damsel to be in distress

She used me and Sausage as an example. How he would often get in trouble and need one of us to help him. How it often was me. I was his knight, but we were just family. She went on to say that they could also be friends, or simply strangers! Maybe someone just needs help and a hero will save them without expecting anything in return.

I walked out of her room that night with a huge shift on my world view. Pretty sure I wasnt even on double digits yet, but I understood most of what she said. She was very patient with me too, and said that some things would make more sense once I grew up. She was right.

I think about that a lot. I'm so very greatful for her. I thought I'd share that story with you all today!

I appreciate my family a lot, right now Gem in particular, she really taught me a lot, most core life leasons I got were from her. She always guided me through the right path even with all her own struggles.

She's a wonderful woman, a wonderful wizard, and a wonderful cousin&sister. Thank you, Gem ♡

Kocowa TV on YouTube thank you for the gift of subbing portions of the BTS clips for My Dearest + giving me interviews to feed me during these trying times of post part one drought

Hey, hey, hey!

Y’know how the New Zealand government’s just, like. Not let me into the new house I’m supposed to be moving into for roughly half a year after I was initially supposed to move in?

It kept happening because the company renovating stuff is really bad at scheduling. But! They’ve finally finished! Everything else is booked - movers, animal transport, etc.

And I’m being let into my house tomorrow, baby!

[theresa-of-liechtenstein]

sigh.

[seelestia]

it's like a patronus lol more proof that we're family, no? :P

very very true. any editors are better than tumblr atp ;w; even on mobile, tumblr editor deletes paragraphs at times. like... why. >:/

chicken sandwiches ftw!! hskshdks that's kinda adorable... yes child, you have your cocoa latte while i'll have my flat white- /j

yes yes the jp version is my favorite in that scene!!! (isn't umeyuu really ikemen irl too lol) i mean the en va did a good job too ofc but from all versions the jp one just hits differently... or maybe i am biased lol

i am loving the married couple bickering between those two lmao i really hope their banner is together or something (i heard kaveh is a 4*?)... oooh i wish genshin had a system where there was a unique "added to party" line that triggers if certain characters are in that party yk?? e.g. if you add kaveh to a party with al haitham he might have the chance to say "ugh not this guy" or "you have bad taste" lmaoooo wouldn't that be fun?? i'm so making this a post sjdlsjdl

i tried exploring around mond to 100% my exploration (so far only 2 areas are 100%) with the treasure compass and it's. it's so relaxing but also it takes so. much. time. lsdfjslhdfjks i'm gonna die from the electroculus and dendroculus searching, i just know it ;w;

*stamps 'chronic simp' sign on your hand* welp now we match-

yeye i heard about that too! so my current plan is to use my guarantee to 'mouchie cause i just gotta collect these anemo boys it's my destiny (i somehow have a feeling his rerun won't be anytime soon after this cause we're already kinda 'done' with his story, while compared to that childe will definitely still appear in the future???) and then pull on ayato's banner. if i'm lucky, i'll get ayato, but if not at least that means guaranteed al haitham (which i heard will be in 3.4?). but whatever it is al haitham's coming home no matter what cause i have the power of credit card

sobs i love that one the most too. the inspiration gods blessed me with that one ;w;

i'm cradling your hugs and cuddles close to my chest and sipping your tea with a smile. sending you back twice the hugs and headpats <3 <3

calling them our patronus sounds so cute AWWW <3 this makes me want to rewatch harry potter all of a sudden, but i'd probably end up falling asleep the moment i laid my head down on the sofa 😭 i think ayato would find the wizarding world vv intriguing and comment on its perks ("my, an invisibility cloak? i can only imagine the many tricks i'd be able to get away with." smack him /j). and for heizou, ik for sure that he would deffo be a fan of it (he's a nerd, a cute one).

i can see why you like the jp ver because umehara yuichiro's voice makes alhaitham sound extra feral LOLL i'm vv excited to see you go feral when his drip marketing comes out on twitter 👀 and yep, kaveh is a 4-star and it is most likely he'd be on the same banner as his beloathed roommate, pfft. OH, THAT IDEA SOUNDS FUN LOLLL you add kaveh into the party and alhaitham's unique voiceline is just "...sigh, care to remind me why he has to be here again?"

good luck with mondstadt's exploration, rin jie! >:) treasure hunting is like a more relaxed way to get 100% exploration and primos in small quantities. don't be like me and resort to finding the oculi yet because hoyoverse hides them in the weirdest places that i had to pull out guides 😭

GO GET SCARAMOOSH HOME! from what i saw in leaks, his kit is super cool and unique from the rest. the angy man literally floats in the air LOLLL and wishing you my good luck on ayato! hopefully, that commissioner will follow his great buddy oni's example and come home ;D and the way alhaitham is technically already guaranteed to be yours, whether that be with the power of credit card or not (hopefully not) fjejwkske

as you know for me, i'm definitely pulling for ayato with my guaranteed pity at 25 (i managed to secure layla within 20 pulls on childe's banner) + i have 80 fates saved rn, so it is safe to say the man will come home safe to me! i grinded so hard like i collected dendro sigils, the lumenstones and the res crystals at dragonspine to get those 2 free fates hoyoverse gave out 😭 i think after i get ayato, i'll probably go back to my "pulling on the banner i regret the least" technique. i hope ayato comes home early, so i'd still have some leftover fates <//3 EITHERWAY, BEST OF LUCK TO BOTH OF US! ✨
