#nonetheless. i do not care

intrigued by the idea that jayce dooms viktor to become the herald because he loves viktor too much to let him die. but mage!viktor could also choose not to save jayce from the storm in order to save himself from that fate, and yet he too loves too much to let go of jayce. endless cycle only broken by their choice to go together.

i think im in too deep w charmander duo. bc i was thinking abt how flame thinks very little abt bans, and how theres a genuine possibility he helps the Guardians ban people not even bc he thinks bans should matter, but just like for fun bc he doesnt think of it that seriously. which led me to thinking "wait but pangi could help him change his mind ^-^" nd now im just thinking of an au where pangi does Just That .

i am so charmed by a lumax wedding because it’s not even something max thought would happen. like she assumed weddings were something the girl makes happen and the guy puts up with. and because she had no desire for one, so there’s no reason it would happen.

among other things weddings are an exorbitant and performative show of love, max loves lucas and she doesn’t care whether or not other people know or believe this. at it’s best marriage to her has been a representation of failed dreams and at it’s worst it’s been a tool to manipulate people who need to get away to stay. maybe they will get married for the tax benefits, she thinks.

this is until max and lucas are older and living together, they’re chilling on the couch and lucas mentions his family has been asking when he’s planning to propose and if that’s something max even wants? max doesn’t care, she doesn’t plan on going anywhere, a certificate won’t change anything and she's not crazy about parties. she doesn’t ask how he feels, he brings it up, that “actually i want a wedding.”

that is saying the least, lucas wants a wedding more than anything. he loves max and he doesn’t need to prove that to anyone, but he’s happy and he wants to share that with others! he wants to work with max to make marriage a positive thing to them, he wants to celebrate their love, everything they’ve been through. also, hell, he’s only human, he wants to show off! he wants to dress really cool and go to a really cool place and show the world know how awesome he and his girlfriend are. HIS WIFE!!!

most of all, lucas wants the moment near the end of the night, where the party’s getting loud and everybody wants his attention, but max asks if he wants to get out of there and he says yes. not out out, just outside the venue. it’s dark and the once booming music is now faint, they sit and catch up, complain about their families, laugh about their friends. max holds lucas’s hand and plays with his wedding ring, she whispers something sweet before asking him to dance. it’s the best part of the night and nobody will know about it but them.

suddenly max decides she wants a wedding.

okay im glad to see that everyone's getting weird shit in the indyblr and nasblr universe, and here's my hottest take: quite frankly being this entitled to an athlete's personal life and political views is fucking weird

[uncanny-tranny]

r u chill w non transitioning ppl?

Why wouldn't I be? At one point, every trans person who is transitioning was once someone who wasn't (whether or not that was a choice or their need is a separate discussion).

Hatred of any kind of trans person is not a Righteous or Good Thing - every single trans person has their place, their entitlement to safety, community, and respect of who they are

The thing that stands out the most to me about Stage of Betrayal is the fact that Rei proves himself completely incapable of envisioning a world in which Hiro would ever willingly leave him behind. Hiro killed himself because Rye made him, because Rye gave him his own gun and forced him to shoot.

To me, the kicker isn't that Rei is actually wrong about this (even strategically speaking, killing himself and destroying all connections to his loved ones was objectively a good move on Hiro's part, and not at all unreasonable nor unheard of considering his job and circumstances), but how he's so deep in denial that he just can't see what happened through any other lenses.

He ignores any and all inconsistencies within his deduction because to acknowledge them would mean he'd have to take into consideration the idea that Hiro immediately chose to kill himself as option number one instead of trying to survive until they could at least attempt an extraction, which feels an awful lot like abandonment. It feels like Hiro put the mission and secrecy above everything else, even Rei (which we know isn't true. Hiro killed himself because he loved the people close to him more than anything and he wanted to keep them safe— which, if you spend more than ten seconds thinking about the scenario, becomes immediately obvious as the motivation behind his suicide).

Hiro killed himself because he was terrified he'd be forced to drag Rei into the line of fire. He did that out of love, without thinking, while Rei can't even consider that as an option because they have fundamentally different ways of thinking and to him it would mean that Hiro didn't care enough to stay alive.

And Rei, being an extremely emotional person, wouldn't handle that well at all— which only leaves him the option of denial (be it subconscious or not).

Thinking about the aftermath of the Alqualondë and the abject misery and horror of the Teleri as they try to salvage what they can and pull the bodies of their dead from the waves. Perhaps they don't want to deal with any of the Noldor at this point in time, not even those who turned back with Finarfin (and possibly fought to defend them during battle).

However, there are four people associated with the House of Finwë they do welcome: Indis, Findis, Anairë and Nerdanel leading the Vanyar from Taniquetil to help to deal with the situation. Bearing lamps from Manwë's own halls to bring some light to the healers and the wounded. Helping to clean and dress injuries with fragrant herbs from the gardens of Lórien. Clearing the harbour and the streets of debris. Preparing food and drink to those who are tirelessly working to make the suffering even tiny bit lesser. Cleaning bloodstained limbs and dressing them with the deathless flowers of Eldamar before bodies are laid to rest. Comforting and holding on to the orphans, widows and all the rest with broken families, and caring for those who are left alone to wait for their kin to come back from Mandos. Nerdanel's quiet firmness and Anairë's encouragements as they walk about the harbour to assess the damage and to make plans for restoration and interview the harbour masters to learn what goods will be needed. Indis' calm, determined face as she gives orders to her people and takes as much as she can of the burden from Olwë and Eärwen's shoulders so that they may grieve with their people. Findis seems to be everywhere at once, lending a hand or a hug or a shoulder to cry on where one is needed.

There are Maiar too, sent by the Valar to help and comfort as they may, but somehow it's these four women and their followers that bring greatest consolation to the Teleri. There are still true friends in Aman.

When the worst of the shock and grief has numbed into a deep ache, it is Indis who gathers them all on the seashore. There under the light of stars she sings the lament she has made for the Mariners who lost their lives, and the White Ships that will never return to the Haven of the Swans, and in her clear voice mingles the endless sighing of the sea.

it doesn't matter what the label of our relationship is

i don't care about it needing one

all i know

is that i like you

i like hanging out with you

i like hearing your voice

and i like being with you

does it really matter to name what we are?

to label our dynamic?

i don't think it does

all i already know

and all that i want

is already here

i enjoy your company

i enjoy your growth

i enjoy your happiness

i enjoy being on this journey

along this life with you

and that is that

Me when I found out that dumb and dumber never wanted or intended for Jon to kill the Night King despite all the build up for it:

[exasperatedoctopus]

Whenever an episode has Lwaxana guest-starring I start filled with dread, for she is the most second-hand-embarrassment-generating person I’ve ever seen. By the end of the episode, I am filled with glee and soft fluffy feelings because Lwaxana is also the coolest lady I ever met.

This happens every time. Every. Single. Time.

dog idc we went through the "don't try to fix your partner" arc already and I refuse to believe we're doing it again. trying to fix someone's bone malunion because they hurt and you can do magic IS misguided but it's not the same as blorbofying your partner. you can't fix him but not in like a metaphor for a savior complex way. it's more because you don't understand osteotomies

I showed my students some Rosings scenes yesterday and in my last period class I let it play a little longer so that it continued into Darcy’s first proposal (even though we hadn’t read it yet) and it played all the way up until the exact moment that Lizzy drew breath to answer him. The bell rang and then they shouted at me in a unison of disappointment and disbelief anskskskskksks.
