#night's nonsense

[nights-nonsensical-ramblings]

I wish my brain wasn't so convinced everyone is just putting up with me and is happier when im not around. Like I've had a friend in the past who literally every singe day promised to meet at a specific spot at lunch and never showed up, then on the bus home they told me they forgot and when i eventually decided to go looking i found them with a large group all laughing and having fun, and again they forgot, so there is precedent there. (I didn't try joining the group cuz something in my brain tells me that if a friend goes somewhere else of course they dont want that annoying person following them and if they wanted anything to do with me they would've gone to the old place or whatever) And after I found out that my former best friend had been doing a bad thing i went silent to try and process it and even though we were messaging that very morning they never once tried to contact or question where i went. so i guess that means If i falter in a relationship for even a moment im gonna be written off.

I try so hard to make stuff so it gives people a reason to stick around, try to make my stuff in ways i know they like, remove things they dont like or even its just lower on their preferences but now cuz of how damn guilty i feel interacting with a thing i know a friend doesn't like. Hell theres this song my old friends used to clown on all the time and i liked it, but i dont know how much i like it cuz of how wrong i felt finding some level of enjoyment in it, and even though its been years and im not friends with these people anymore i feel i have to logically justify why i like it even just to myself, And its not like they did anything to me, its all my dumb brain.

I guess it makes sense. I've grown up with people who would yell at me for saying the letter 'H' and 'Z' wrong or 'hey the thing you cooked is making us feel sick' got called ungrateful cause 'at least i cooked' or 'hey what time will you be picking me up' also caused flying off the handle. So yeah, makes sense that i'd feel like there was a wrong way to interact, and if i get it wrong the other person will be mad at me and would even less want to be around me.

Can we please take a moment to appreciate this latest chat photo?

I would make Solomon talk to every cat for me. Be my kitty translator I need to know all about that precious baby’s life.

Barbatos, darling, give me those books they look stupid heavy. He calls that paperwork in the chat.

I love them both so much it makes me silly.

wade and logan share a bed (of course they do) but unfortunately for wade, it’s like sleeping with a giant pit bull.

logan either ends up on top of him and crushing him, hogging the middle of the bed and forcing wade to sleep on the very edge, or repeatedly kicking him in his sleep. sometimes wade finds it adorable. sometimes he rethinks his entire life after waking up to the sound of logan snoring loudly in his face and drooling on the pillows.

I have a theory...

Im really curious how people know about Esperanto. Since its a relatively recent language (from the 1880s), its obviously not going to be as widely spoken in the world as other languages (altho apparently it is the most widely spoken constructed language). I assume most people are introduced to it later in some way?

If u know what Esperanto is, feel free 2 reblog this and say how you learned about it in the tags.

Concepts that I didn’t want to think about but my brain won’t shut off:

1) Cullen should have been a companion vs advisor. The man likes to be active and do things. He’s not a papers guy. Plus while popular most people (statistically) do not know his whole story so he is really easy to explore for both new and old players.

2) We could explore his trauma from dao-da2 while also seeing him work on his recovery - his story would continue to NOT be about redemption, but about working on his sobriety and de-radicalization.

3) By having Cullen as a companion and exploring his story, it would have really brought forward the previously established nuance of the Templars. It would have put the humanization of the Templars front and center - the stuff that’s been buried in codices and ambient dialogue and banter for the past two games. One of those “shouldn’t be the cheese is under the sauce” topics to be honest.

4) Blackwall would have been better suited for the Commander role. He’s led troops before, he “has” wings of valor. As a grey warden it would have still fit his role as remaining non-political because the Wardens are still Andrastian and most of Thedas doesn’t count that as a reason to bar people. Would further push the “Chantry is overstepping their bounds” while also pushing the claim that the Inquisition is NOT Chantry affiliated. Would have made the reveal much juicier.

5) If you did swap Cassandra with Cullen, Cassandra would still pop up in the field. It is weird for a commander to not travel where they’re needed for the army. Plus Cassandra likes to physically handle problems. She’d help establish new keeps, strengthen the Inquisition’s hold else where, investigate the missing seekers, ect. It would also stop the conflict of her only having Templar abilities which as a Seeker she shouldn’t have the same abilities. Similar but different.

6) Even if Cullen stayed as commander we should have seen him in the field more. He is a strategist, a leader, and used to being hands on. Plus he’s too afraid of not having control because he’s never been in control so he’d be traveling just to make sure he was giving his all to the Inquisition like he did the Chantry but also not being like Meredith.

Listing my favorite things about Watson's first letter to Holmes in Baskervilles cause I love this format SO SO MUCH:

"My dear Holmes" ily standard letter greeting <3

How extensive he is in setting the scene. "Hey ik you told me to be brief and you don't really care about this but the views are SO lovely and I care about them so you WILL experience them as if you were here. Deal with it"

The delightful confirmation that watson STILL won't let sherlock live down that he used to be a geocentrist. King behavior. I like to think he pulls that card every time holmes gets a lil too cocky

ALL THE GOSSIP SHARING

The genuine care watson has for literally everyone around him and how he expresses it. Ily watson <3

"You would find him an interesting study" GODD this little domesticity of how well they know each other is everything to me

RIP WATSON YOU WOULD HAVE LOVED THE CONCEPT OF SHIPPING

This man is such a romantic. Very important to the case that Sir Henry and Miss Stapleton shared some most intimate looks

I bet he reads Jane Austen

"See, Holmes, I know you told me to never leave Sir Henry but!! Have you considered!!! I CANNOT be a third wheel they're SO cute together!!! Unrelated but I already appointed myself as the wedding planner. This is helping us in the case."

"You are aware that I am not a very sound sleeper" fuck!! FUCK!!!

I see your (general) “Kakashi expects children to be half as smart as he was at that age” AU and raise you a “Kakashi thinks children are way dumber than they actually are” AU. His only in-person experiences with pre genin are himself, a year at the academy, and Naruto.

So he’s convinced that Iruka is some kind of god for wrangling 17 half-feral children (and Naruto) into real human beings who can read and write and use chopsticks and deadly weapons. Yes, clan children probably learn a bit before, but still.

Kakashi: can’t believe you taught them almost everything they know

Iruka: I didn’t??

Kakashi: I watched you turn 18 hellions into mostly functional members of society

Iruka: most of my kids were well behaved

Kakashi: they absolutely were not, I once saw baby Shino bite Chouji and Hinata took out Gai’s kneecaps because he stood still long enough for her to catch him

AU wherein Sephiroth shares his water bottle with Genesis and Angeal in the training room, consequently yet unknowingly spreading his s-cells through their bodies and eliminating the degradation before their fateful spar even begins.

Something I'm wondering about

I know we all like to think that Solomon probably has a back up plan for making MC immortal, but do you ever consider how he would be if MC just stayed mortal and aged normally?

He notices when they start to get little aches and pains. He sees the streaks of grey that start to show up in their hair. In the blink of an eye, they're using a cane and their entire head is silver - just like his.

You know he would dote on them in their older years. He would make them special canes or walkers. He would make them potions to help with arthritis. He would come up with magical ways to deal with all the inconveniences of their aging body.

He would find ways to help them with their day to day without making them feel like they're too old to be independent.

Solomon would cherish those years. Every day he would have these complicated feelings about it. Yes, he's watching his adorable apprentice, the one he loves, grow old, leading inevitably to their death. But he's also seeing them experience a phase of life that he will never get to. And all the while, they'll still be younger than him by thousands of years.

And I think that for as long as it exists, he would visit MC's grave. Probably yearly, on the anniversary of the day he lost them.

There's been a lot of speculation about that card where he's crying at someone's grave and who that grave belongs to. But what if that grave is ours?

i think we should value platonic dynamics more in fandom and oc spaces this is my final message
