Rant destroying the phrase "he talked one octave lower"

w/c: 711 words.

okay I gotta confess something- my biggest fanfic and books pet peeve is when they say their voice goes an octave (even worse if it's more than one octave) lower or higher, HAVE Y'ALL TRIED IT?! I mean talking one octave low doesn't seem that bad (even though I've tried going one octave lower than my talking voice and it's impossible for me to talk like that) BUT WHEN THEY SAY THAT SOMEONE'S VOICE IS LIKE THREE OCTAVES LOWER- bro- no 😭😭😭 Like just to put it into perspective 😍😍 let's say that someone (like me) talks around G3 (G/Sol is the note, 3 is the octave it plays) If I were to talk three octaves lower I would talk in G0, fine right 😍😍 WELL NO BECAUSE NOT EVEN A GUITAR BASS GOES THAT LOW😭

Telling you why down below 😘

To put it into kpop perspective. If I were to talk one octave lower, I would be talking into stray kid's Felix deep voice range. AND if I were to talk three octaves lower I would be talking two octaves lower than Felix's deep voice. Talk about talking like a demon.

(plus if Felix's were to talk three octaves lower , that's the example that made me write this, he would be talking around the octave -1 and the octave 0, which is ✨😍not possible😍✨)

Let's talk higher now, since I've also seen some examples. Going back to me, I talk around G3, if I were to go one octave higher that would be on my singing range, for example Violeta by Iz*one is in G major so to give an approximate idea on how high it would be, I would be talking in the range where they sing most of the pre-chorus (fun fact the "violeta" that goes to the chorus the "vio" part is in G4, the things you learn when you want to prove a point)

I can talk in that voice, sure, but let's look the three octaves higher 😍 Remember, my talking voice: around G3. Singing: can go to G4. But how does G6 sound like? ����😍🤟

Remember playing in those kid pianos that are kinda big and you feel like a piano master playing random keys. Just me? Or remember those electric pianos that your music teacher, if you had one, had that you always wanted to just play one note for the funzies? Those pianos are usually between two kinds, a 49 key piano and a 61 key piano.

What octaves does each piano has? Well a 49 key piano has a range between C2 to C6. While a 61 key piano has a range between C2 to C7. (we're going to ignore the fact that the lowest note, the one you played at the end that sounded so deep after playing each note is higher then my three-octaves-lower-voice) So basically, my now three octaves higher voice would be that annoying note at the end of a 49 key piano that sounds so high you wanna punch someone (totally not bcs I'm autistic and hate high pitch noises)

Again, kpop perspective. Ateez's Junho high note in wonderland (the end high part on kingdom) is a B5... A B... FIVE, I would be talking 5 tones HIGHER than that. WJSN's Yeonjung hits a G5 in secret, so does Chuu in hi high, both just one octave lower than G6.

I looked up the highest kpop high notes, as of 2018-03-17 a video made by DareDB KPop Classic gave some examples of the highest notes sung by a female kpop idol, there are some examples on the G6, but it's mostly just trying to hit the note not holding it for a little. However I discovered something 😍😍😍 Shannon in masked singer hits a G6 singing to Mariah Carey's song "Emotions"

While I know and acknowledge that this is usually written from a place of either exaggeration, metaphor, or not knowing how much that is, I'm just a little shit who likes to question everything and hate on small things😘 You do you while I do I, I'll keep writing "their voice got lower" while you'll keep writing a thing that's not realistic/hj😘😘

Anyways thanks for coming to my Ted talk, I spent way too much time on this. Bye.

[valleynix]

I'm pretty sure I follow you on TikTok and I remember when you used to clown people all the time. Miss that era fr

i dont BAHA, like it was funny but it was genuinely such a waste of time/energy on people so miserable that's all they do in their free time. like, i have actual Adult Things to do with my life, i dont care that some stranger on the internet is trying to start beef with me over a queer headcanon LMAO

i prefer just making silly edits of these silly homosexuals and going about my day <3

Sorry, I know you don’t really like people bringing up Jason but I’m very curious. I read Straight on Till Morning several times before really joining Tumblr and I was surprised by how much you seem to dislike him compared to how nicely he was written in said fic. Is it cuz it’s a future fic so he can be more chilled out than in current comics or something?

Feel free to ignore me if you want. Curiosity does not owe me answers.

no worries, i don't mind polite questions! :P

so there's two things. a) sotm was written when the only real comics i'd read were sb94, yj98, tt03, batgirl (2000), and nightwing '96 (iirc - i might be forgetting one or two but the point is, when i was pretty new to comics). at this point wfa had tricked me into thinking jason actually had a consistent character arc that i simply hadn't read yet, and i assumed it would be weird to write a fic where dick, tim, and cass were all around as kon's friends + damian was there being jon's friend in the background, but jason didn't get mentioned, so i worked him in bc i thought that was like. gonna be weird if i didn't, even tho i didn't know what he was doing in postcrisis yet. i mostly just wanted to write about kon and did not yet have the strong "actually i do not care for 99% of post-rebirth comics" feelings i have today. if i were to do the sotm rewrite in my mind, jason would actually still be in his villain to antivillain era because that's my actual favorite era of him. i think it's fun when he's hanging around being like... a vengeful ghost who's just determined to make his problems Everyone's Problem. i'm not really interested in soft angsty daddy's boy jtodd or whatever sdkjfh and that seems to be the most popular version of him i see. it's either soft angsty daddy's boy jason or it's power fantasy cop-adjacent jason who has never done anything wrong in his life and is completely valid in every decision he's ever made. neither of these interests me.

which brings me to b) it's not so much that i dislike jason todd as a character so much as that his fans are so fucking annoying to me. that chapter of sotm? multiple people in the comments were there ONLY to talk about jason, even though the fic is literally about kon and not about jason and he just happens to appear for PART of one scene that chapter. it made me get sick of hearing about him. like theres soooo many jason todd fics out there can you go read those. i want to talk about kon! and i've had people bring him up on my completely unrelated fics too like he doesn't even get MENTIONED like one fic is about clark kon and tim, and someone was in the comments like "omg i bet clark was thinking about jason here" and i was so ... dude. read the room. or the fic even. it is not about him.

but even more than the way a lot of jason fans have this apparently compulsive need to make him the main character of the entire universe, i really can't stand how many of them i've seen spout literal straight up copaganda and/or defense of the death penalty. like they will bend over backwards so hard to defend why he was right to put 8 heads in a duffel bag or why it's morally correct to kill rapists that they start spewing right-wing talking points. and the constant need to make him the perfect imperfect victim ("he's angry and loud unlike GOOD victims--") and all of that just... it really turns me off of 99% of fan content about him that i've seen. it makes me genuinely kind of uncomfortable. like if you think there's a category of criminal that it's okay to execute (without a trial, even) i want nothing to do with you. can you guys just say it's sexy when a man is covered in blood after murdering a room full of people without having to be like "and he was right to do it too!!" because i promise he was not. and if you SAY any of this people will come up with a whole thing about how you must hate victims and/or poor people or some shit. its... really something.

all of that being said - i think there are interesting things you COULD do with his character. i think he can be a fascinating character! with stories worth telling! the family tragedy, the horror story, the vengeful ghost! but at this point with how rancid i find his fanbase i just really only want to see jason takes from people i know will not start spewing copaganda at me + people who i know appreciate tim kicking him in the balls (bc he kicked dick in the balls and tim is a bitch).

anyways. bring back tentatodd 2k25 who's with me

rnm anime spoilers

some of my mutuals on here inspired me to get off my ass and actually watch the anime soooo heres my lil opinion on the thang

tldr: its meh but i'm holding out hope for the next eps, also apparently controversial(??) but i like the art style

i came into it knowing that the anime heavily leans on like. the weirder sci-fi concepts that the rnm multiverse allows. i mean. just look at Rick and Morty vs. Genocider but like. its an interesting concept sure but the execution is not the best-- it really worked better in its occasional shorts/special format it had before

its attempt to be a little more serious than the original show is meh-- the unconnected plotlines shit is something rnm has done before (roy game. interdimensional cable. mrotys mindblowers. blah blah) but it had yk. comedy to fall back on-- without that aspect it just feels very uhhh. nothing burger-y

but i only find this episode semi-acceptable just cause. its only the first episode. i'm assuming they're just trying to lay down everything now and they'll smooth everything out in the next episodes....hopefully

though it honestly feels like the writers are doing this towards the community/fans HELPPPP

also. why must we give morty a love interest yet again. can a boy exist without a random love interest being there. i don't know i'm okay with the potential of new characters coming in (shout out to frank. random ass guy) but i hate when mort just gets a random love interest SDKJFH hopefully they expand on her a little more as a character-- i thought she would just be a one off thing but then i remembered she's literally in the opening so. whoopsie!

ok but. for positives. i like the art style-- which i am shocked to learn is. not recieved the same?? the animation is choppy yeah but from what i remember the anime's always sort of been like that and i very much enjoy the funky color palettes n shit the anime's been doing.. yummy as fuck

also i'm glad they have the same/(or similar i didnt check) japanese vas for the anime-- question though for those who're reading this. is there an english dub???? from where i watched (argh me matey) there was only a japanese dub but i'm pretty sure some trailers had english vas so. idk

anyways yeah those're my thoughts

[flintsilvers]

wait do u hate the tlou show (asking cause i thought it was fine. but i never played the game so. idk sjsjsjjs)

i will prefice this by saying that my expectations were admittedly way too high so naturally the show fails to measure up, but

(ended up being a little longer than expected sorry sdkjfhs)

the main reason i dont like it is that the characters don't feel like the characters at all (joel and tess are too nice, ellie is a psychopath, the fireflies are idiots, bill is also nice) and it feels like the show is begging the audience to please keep watching we promise you'll love these people ahah please dont turn off the tv <3

another reason is that the pacing is terrible imho, which takes a lot away from the story. in the game, it takes time to get from point A to point B, and during that time ellie and joel talk, she tells jokes, they bicker and most importantly they bond. the show is stripped entirely of these moments while at the same time it expects the audience to buy into how quickly they fall into the dynamic they have in the game, resulting in them absolutely not having that dynamic. there's also no tension whatsoever -it feels like the threat of encountering the infected is nonexistent, and even when they walk into a city filled with them they only really have to fight two.

and dont get me started on the kiss of death. i hated every second of it.

the show has some good ideas and you can tell that some of those were meant to make it into the game but eventually they didnt, and i dont mind them taking time to develop other characters, actually thats one of the things i was looking forward to, but there were ways to explore tess and joel's relationship and bill's descent into darkness without rewriting them entirely.

it also has some very good moments (i loved the whole part with sarah) and even some okay moments: for example i liked bill and frank, but the only time they fought was over?? painting walls? why not have them fight over something more serious, or why not have them be more aggressive in their fighting? why not let bill outlive frank and carry that grief with him? they deprived us of a very vital interaction between him and joel, where joel sees himself in frank's grief and still chooses to go on.

im holding out hope that the next episodes will get better because if this is how the whole season is gonna go, im definately not gonna like part 2

im gonna end it here cause i would just end up talking about ways they could have made the show better which is both off topic and pointless cause the game exists sdfsgsd

[moonlightfilly]

(trying to fit what I wanted to say in the replies was killing me too sdkjfh)

Honestly! For all the author claims to have researched, the results are truly lack-luster. You can tell when they're out of their depth, because they can't properly talk about any of the issues they bring up in a natural, significant way. Even the feminist aspect of the comic seems lacking, with the author preferring to make it "women can do no wrong and men are always in the wrong" in this comic. Even if the women do something wrong the author either ignores it (or doesn't even understand they're wrong) or cooks up something worse the men can do to absolve the women (hello Veronica cheating on Nacho). Ethel never learns, the author never thinks she needs to, so it's all just... bad.

The aroace rep feels so badly done here... there seems to be no real understanding about what it's like to live as an aro/ace/aroace individual, not to mention the fact you can barely call it rep because it's hidden away so much. To villainize Jughead for things he did in high school (+most of those things are just from Ethel's POV), which turned out to be just him not being certain about his sexuality and being a confused teenager, and then not even talk empathetically about how he felt pressured by society to be straight or let him say the words aromantic asexual out loud?! Nothing about Jughead's story was his, it was almost exclusively told through the lens of all of the other characters, and even when he got to talk briefly about being aroace after being locked in a vault and forced to talk about it (yikes, and then the author had Jughead thank Trula for crossing his boundaries) it was still all about Ethel's feelings.

You'd think the multiple POVs on the "Jughead situation" would culminate in people realizing they made a lot of assumptions and harsh judgements without even asking the person they're talking about what's going on... but no. No learning moment. No acknowledgment that the situation wasn't as black and white as it was made out to be. No empathy shown towards aspecs trying to navigate an allonormative society, even when we could see how being aroace but not realizing it really weighed on Jughead in high school. His peers were all pressuring him to date, he's always blamed for "leading girls on", Ethel was constantly pursuing him which was very stressful to him, but not once does a character reflect on how their actions affected Jughead or even how their current treatment of Jughead has been unfair. The entire focus was on Ethel's hurt feelings that he ghosted her, to the point that even Jughead's coming out was motivated by the desire to make Ethel feel better. It was all about him begging for her forgiveness and there was nothing from Ethel's side. The blame for their conflict was firmly placed on him and his orientation, Ethel says they're good now (though she's back to not being good with him in s2 even though he doesn't know that), and that's all we get on the topic. I'm shocked that even his so-called best friend didn't care to understand his side of the story and jumped on the Jughead hate-train, and we still haven't seen him or any other character acknowledge they did anything wrong to Jughead. Like... is the conclusion really meant to just be "aspecs hurt allo people and they have to take accountability for that"? Yikes.

The author was so proud of themselves, posting the book on asexuality they were reading on instagram "for research" and then they didn't seem to take anything from it at all. When we finally got that scene in the vault and Jughead got to speak for himself a little it felt very 101 at best, aphobic at worst, and then the author didn't even let him state his identity out loud for some reason even though that would've been the moment to do so. And having Jughead say that people tell him "you just haven't met the right person" and then have the author immediately confirm that those people were right?? because Trula is his exception?? Mess. Of course he could be demi/gray, but the way all of this information was presented just made things feel like really bad barely passing rep, and I'll admit it's hard for me to trust the author's intentions in making a character that in previous iterations had no exceptions have one after how poorly they've handled the aspec topic. Making Trula in particular the exception also gives me the ick because she was literally the one trying to mess with his head to "fix him" (make him allo) in the original comics.

The author needs an editor and needs to do more reading on the subjects she wants to broach for real...

(Also yes to anybody else reading this read Jughead 2015!!)

Big Ethel Energy Season 2 Episode 19

Just diving into it today.

Overall, I feel like the webcomic continually tries and continually misses with its presentation of serious topics and in turn those topics feel shoe horned or surface level as I continue to read. Some topics are treated well, but I think the primary difference is that in those instances where the presentation is better, multiple pages are dedicated to the topic rather than a few speech bubbles. If the time or effort isn't going to put into the issues when they come up then I feel like it's meaningless for the webcomic to try to present them because it present such an unsubstantial surface level discussion or commentary on them.

This perspective isn't wrong, but Veronica didn't treat Tim like that at all. Perhaps it's the way I read the encounter between Tim and Veronica or if it was portrayed overtly. Veronica certainly had an abrasive attitude, but they both did during their first meeting.

Big Ethel Energy continues to shove perspectives down the readers throats and villainize characters without displaying them doing wrong or sticking to that characterization. At least make it apparent. Like if Veronica had stereotyped or perceived Tim in a myopic way because he was gay I would understand and agree with what Tim was saying in the context of the story and how it happened, but my issue is that their meeting didn't read like that to me. They were equally abrasive and snide with each other. It was on the same level.

He called her out on her history of bullying and she accepted that. If he called her out on any of her other wrongs like the body shaming or cheating I would have understood that. I understand Tim is doing all of this with the intentions of protective Ethel, but bringing this up without the meeting displaying it feels empty and feels like a failure on the part of the comic's presentation/display.

...I'm going to real I have no idea what Seth's ethnicity is because I don't think it was mentioned until now. I'm assuming he has an Indigenous American background because of the comment he makes here, but I'm honestly not sure because I don't believe it was mentioned until now. But I will be checking on that and editing the paragraph accordingly.

But I personally feel as if this exchange between Tim and Seth is clumsy and continues with with the pattern of the comic bringing up important topics and issues just for the sake of bringing them up, but never expanding upon them.

Big Ethel Energy continues to mention these important topics and perspectives, but the comic really does nothing with them. They feel shoe horned as I've repeatedly stated across my reading of the webcomic because the characters do nothing with them. I understand being stereotyped as a racial minority myself, it's a lived experience and at times it feels like you can do nothing about it in social situations, but having a couple characters talk about race and sexuality and the stereotyping that comes with these aspects of one's self when interacting with people and then having no real conclusion or message other than "We contain multitudes, bro!"

It feels simple? Shallow? A way to cut off the conversation with an easy and nice bow? I'm not sure how others are perceiving this moment. Like of course we contain multitudes. It just feels...way to simplified. Personally at least.

Other than that in this episode. I am glad someone finally said this because I wasn't sure if I was reading it correctly. The comic is pointing toward Seth and Ethel potentially being a thing.

Just considering Ethel's crush on Seth I wonder if the same issues/anxieties she expressed having with dating and that she solely associated with Jughead are going to come up again? If they don't I feel like her issues with dating were really more just issues with Jughead.

[gunsatthaphan]

Omg, I really thought Aoey and Gene were gonna kiss, and a part of me didn't hate that idea kjghfgjdfh. Probably cause I watched Friend Zone before LW 😳

OMG anon DON’T lmao. Although i guess stud and aey do share some similarities but still.... there’s no comparison lol. 

I was screaming during that entire scene and not in a good way sdkjfh. I wanted Gene to slap him so bad. If they had kissed that would’ve been awful. I’m glad superhero sib came to the rescue lol.

[hetahonda]

can I just say that the characters positively come alive in your headcanons! You can really feel the individual charm of each nation! if it’s okay I’d actually like to request you do a character you secretly wish to receive an ask about ;) (if not then I’d love to hear about sweden)

skdjfhd thank you so much… the headcanon asks are really just for fun (and because i just love talking about dumb nation people sdkjfh) but it’s very kind of you to say, thank you 🥺

i’ve actually been secretly wishing to receive an ask about singapore (entirely self indulgent, i’m singaporean!) but i don’t think anyone’s going to request that since he’s not a canon character

i’ll do sweden’s headcanons first, and singapore’s will be under the cut!

SWEDEN:

what they smell like: he’s got a bit of the dry, freshly cut wood smell, mainly because he tinkers around with carpentry in his spare time

how they sleep (sleeping position, schedule, etc): he sleeps late and wakes up early, and always has coffee first thing to tide him over for the rest of the day. unlike most of the nordics, he’s pretty still and doesn’t move around much in his sleep (he doesn’t dream a lot either).

what music they enjoy: he’s really into modern music, and he likes house and electro stuff like avicii and martin garrix. he also has an incredibly soft spot for abba (who doesn’t?), and it’s the one thing guaranteed to break him out of his shell on karaoke nights with the others

how much time they spend getting ready every morning: he’s very quick, easily 10 minutes or less. denmark likes to poke fun at him because he seems to alternate between three different outfits

their favorite thing to collect: wood carvings!! he collects mostly carvings of animals, and he has a whole row of them aligned along his TV stand

left or right-handed: right-handed

religion (if any): atheist, but he follows finland to church sometimes

favorite sport: table tennis! it’s something he plays indoors a lot, especially with finland and denmark. granted, he’s not very good at it, but he likes playing it nonetheless

favorite touristy thing to do when traveling (museums, local food, sightseeing, etc): he likes taking walks around the area to explore. he appreciates architecture, especially of older, historical buildings

favorite kind of weather: he likes warmer days, with clear skies and little rain when he can stargaze at night

a weird/obscure fear they have: he’s not superstitious, but he’s not fond of faeries or trolls or any other kinds of mythical creatures

the carnival/arcade game they always win without fail: whack-a-mole! he only ever plays because of sealand, but he’s surprisingly good at it

SINGAPORE:

what they smell like: honestly, he doesn’t have much of a smell. he spends most of his days in dry, air-conditioned areas

how they sleep (sleeping position, schedule, etc): he tends to stay up late, but wakes up pretty early as well, and functions decently without much sleep. he snores a lot, which former roommates have complained about

what music they enjoy: he’s a complete koreaboo…. his playlist consists mostly of kpop and dance music, and his favourite artists include twice and blackpink

how much time they spend getting ready every morning: about half an hour, he spends quite a bit of time picking out what to wear every morning, and cares quite a bit about his clothes as a teenage nation

their favorite thing to collect: coins! he has a box of coins dating as far back to the 60s, including memorial coins and special edition ones. he likes to bother the other nations for their old coins as well

left or right-handed: right-handed

religion (if any): agnostic

favorite sport: swimming! it’s one of the few sports that he’s decent at

favorite touristy thing to do when traveling (museums, local food, sightseeing, etc): major foodie, and loves exploring street food. he’s pretty adventurous when it comes to his eating and likes trying out more outrageous stuff

favorite kind of weather: cold and chilly weather, bonus points if there’s snow. his house is summer all year round, and he rarely gets the chance to see snow. likes to visit korea during wintertime

a weird/obscure fear they have: hates mosquitos, and is incredibly susceptible to their bites anyway. carries around bug repellent whereever he goes

the carnival/arcade game they always win without fail: he’s very good at foosball, and has his own foosball table at home

weird headcanon asks!!

hey well, if you have the power to make what you write abt yourself come true, write positive stuff and see what happens! (also: do you have a diary/journal that you write in daily? i wrote religiously 5th-8th grade and in 9th grade, i stopped. kinda wanna get back on it, but i can never stay consistent :/)

hmmm that's if i ever get around to writing smth hdsfkj but! when i do, i'll definitely share w/ you :') it's more original work than an au (but! y'know how louis's the sun and harry's the moon? well. the main couple in mine are wlws & one's middle name is solange (means sun) & the other's mahina (means moon) so.. hl are my inspo as well)

i think . we feel more true to ourselves bc our lesbian mother, the moon, is out and ready to love us. just a theory sdkjfh

ooH, so you're more like an only child.. validish.sdfkj and yes, that is a big age difference. i have three younger sisters with a 2yr / 6yr / 8 yr age diff so we're pretty close (*however: i fell asleep during the maze runner and my sisters left me. on the living room floor . to wake up with an 90y/o back . is that "close" .)

ahsdkjfhk i can only do and just barely do math. i'm learning to drive rn bc my permit expires in april rip and i Hate it. i've tried cooking and it's alright?? i just don't have the patience for it

omggg, 2016!! that was . a Trip, to say the least . anD NOOAFSHDKJ @ 2015 you

my friends made me watch the wymb music video at the end of 4th grade (so summer 2012) and it was Downhill from theredskjfh but no, so i knew of their existence and everything but loWkey, i only liked them bc my friends did. also i had like. google alerts set up so i knew all the Drama oof. also. tragicallyyyy i shipped elouno (10y/o me thought she was pretty ok) in 2016 though, i watched The One fimq video and sold my soul & sanity to the devil as i became the biggest larrie

💘🌻❤✨💞

yes!!! books have a way of transporting you away from reality. most times i feel like i am watching life zoom by me and that i'm living on autopilot and i don't know how to take back control? i guess we both have ''much 2 think abt!''

odaat!!!! i love that show omg, so glad it was picked up. and yeah, i think that since we are jUst getting rep, it isn't going to be super relatable for everyone. when i was younger, i latched on to any and every desi person, no matter how toxic/bad the rep was lol. i rmbr rlly liking ravi from jessie . rn, i really like skam for rep tbh

babe you knowing that you were who you needed early on is amazing. i know you'll time will come, you just have to take it ahah . one day at a time .

and this has to be my fave quote abt reading: “I have lived a thousand lives and I’ve loved a thousand loves. I’ve walked on distant worlds and seen the end of time. Because I read.” --George R.R. Martin

life comes at you quick huh . my room doesn't feel mine oops, but!! i really want to hang up pictures in mine, fill up the walls with love and whatnot

[valleynix]

The Fool. As in, the tarot card?

(With that "you have to remember" all I had in my mind was the "remember who you are" from lion king lmao)

"They’re right in front of you-

But they’re not real. They’re gone."

Can you stop?? I need a safe word.

"You won’t let her destroy more and more realities or worlds or whatever.

It stops now."

Yes, that's the spirit! Let's go!🎉

"It seems as though Cassandra has the most control over her urges after she drinks blood from a fresh source"

But little miss Bela will be out there saying she's managing it better than her sisters😭

🥺 Cass draw Reader and Daniela sleeping???? Pls that's so cute.

I wonder if she drew some more moments of her family spending time together. That'd be like family pictures :')

Idk if they have cameras out there so

There certainly must be something wrong with me, because Cassandra is extremely attractive when she's threatening the Reader.

My lil rainbow heart was at its limits doing all the Cass paragraphs 🥴

Reading with Bela 🥺

That would be such a nice experience I bet, her voice is so soothing like she could be talking about how she cut open a manthing in the cellar and that would be like a bedtime story.

Need her to talk to me when I'm anxious <\3

Yhm yhm nvm once again giving me a slap on the face with the sweet moment followed by nothing but pure pain.

Lunatic kinda fine tho 👀 I like their evil mind, games and plans.

Mmm mmm evil people who ruin the lives of others (if only it wasn't Reader's life ). It's a love-hate relationship 😭 we gotta learn self love

DANIELA 💘💝💖💗💓💞💕💟❤

I knew sth bad would happen once again 😩

The way they argued with Bela anyway, about leaving the castle. They couldn't escape it.

Gosh I hope the Reader won't fuck up with the timeline too much this time 😭

And for now I don't trust the woman from the cellar.

And damn what killed those maids from the castle. A mystery that is yet to be solved.

i love that i saw this just as i was about to start writing again hehe

The Fool as in the tarot card >:) i'm glad someone picked up on that sdkjfhskj (there's a shit ton of symbolism that i so far haven't really seen anyone mention just yet, but hearing this made me happy :D)

*THE SAFE WORD COMMENT LMFAOOO

*can't give up hope in these trying times >:)

*listen Bela just likes to think she has that control- little miss Bela "perfect daughter" Dimitrescu is struggling BAHA

*Cass 100% has a little stash of drawings no one will ever be able to find, and it's just sketches of her family doing things she can remember or that mean something to her :')

*also tbf Cass is just attractive no matter what she does. she could threaten to cut out my tongue and i'd be like "wow say it again" LMAOOOO

*so real of you </3 Bela strikes me as someone with a voice that literally everyone loves and wants to hear (cue Daniela begging her to read just because she finds it soothing for her nightmares)

*HEHEHEHEHE, i'm trying to get better at just comfort and not as much pain following it </3

*Lunatic is honestly really smart sdkjfhs, there is a method to their madness (also have you seen the fanart done of them?? bro is cool as FUCK)

*(i promise you will learn to like them more <3)

*IN CONCLUSION: DANIELA <3333333 (i'm on my laptop so no emojis but imagine i spammed hearts)

*some things are just set in stone, as we'll see more of >:) that's the unfortunate reality of fate; no matter how hard we try, sometimes we just can't escape what was already destined to happen at some point or another

*about that...

*i definitely wouldn't! she does mean well, but... yknow... the village is a scary place, and sometimes it gives life to scarier humans forced into a certain role by the horrid shit going on

*i think chapter ten briefly implies who/what killed the maids?? if i'm not mistaken? it's often difficult to know every little thing when we only see things from one POV >:)

i hope you're still enjoying it so far, though <33

gold: describe what you would call the most perfect meal.
