#otto’s job

[otto-c-graves]

So, the place I work at changed owners, hence my sudden rise in positions.

But in the beginning, the new owner had me fill out an eleven page packet, front to back, on getting to know me.

I looked at my coworkers and confidently said, “I’m gonna write about Bigfoot.”

And I was dead ass serious.

I wrote about Bigfoot, Ufology, paranormal investigating, conspiracy theories as well as other pseudosciences and my passion for writing. I also wrote about my enjoyment to become an actor, director, and create other projects. I wrote all of this partly because it’s all true and I hold dear but also because I half assed it. Thinking they would think it was ridiculous.

They approached me days later after I filled that thing front to back and told me how much they appreciated my authenticity.

So, long story short and the message of this story is to always write about Bigfoot.✨

Finally finishing S2E2 of HotD and watching Otto realise in real time that Rhaenyra should've been queen after all while talking to Aegon is absolute TV gold

Something I really enjoy about the Alex Rider series is that it’s not shy about showing Alex’s vulnerability.

Reminder that I haven’t read the books since I was a child and have forgotten a lot, but I’m pretty sure in those Alex was usually portrayed as the typical teenage boy protagonist. He was snarky/sarcastic, gave the bad guys henchmen nicknames, and for the most part he really worked alone. I’m almost finished season 2, but a difference I noticed is that he hasn’t got his all the really cool spy gear (that I was always envious of) he would usually be given at the beginning of missions, and when he was in a bad situation he could only rely on himself to get him out of it. But in the show they took those away, and due to that he really has to rely on people.

Both in season 1 and now in 2 he couldn’t have made it without Kyra (when he gets captured/caught and strapped to a table, then when he impersonates K7 and she has to guide him out) and its obvious that his relationship with Tom (Jack too, but I really think Tom’s a big one here) is really special to him, not just because he’s able to think outside the box (like when Alex wanted to just wait all day for the journalist guy and Tom was all ‘i’ll just set off the alarm and evacuate the building) but also because he’s his best friend and makes him laugh/smile. Alex smiles so much at Tom’s antics and I really love the show for choosing to maintain that this is a teenage boy who needs his friends to keep him grounded.

And when he’s all convinced that Yassen is in the area he tells everyone!! Jack, Tom, even Sabina! (who really he should’ve at least tried to keep the whole spy thing a secret from i feel like come on, Alex, please) He jumps out in situations when he should stay hidden! He is not secretive when it comes to those he loves! And you can see that he wants and needs them to believe him. From what I remember, book Alex was more ‘ooh! Cool teenage spy, beating up all the bad guys and saving the world cuz Blunt won’t let him go!’ (Or maybe not, I’ll reread them someday) but this Alex cares!! This version of Alex cared so much about what happened to his uncle Ian, he cared so much that his evil clone was hurting Tom and ran as fast as he could to get to them, he cares so much about Kyra he went on a drugged up rant about how she’s special and he wouldn’t fall for fake Kyra’s tricks again. He cares so much about Sabina and her dad.

TV! Alex I will always love you.

I can't be the only one who ships Sleep (aka Remy) with Other Side Of The Pillow. Like excuse you? He doesn't even have a name? Have you seen him?! We're about to change that

His name is now Otto. He's hot. And you can do nothing about it

Bloodraven vs rhaenyra who served more cunt?

why pit two powerful he/theys against each other when the truth is that if brynden were there he could’ve gotten rhaenyra on the throne in one three day holiday weekend with enough time left over to deploy dragon nuclear armageddon against Stone Hedge so hard that anyone who even SAYS the name Bracken is going to be coughing up smoke for a decade

[daemon-is-perfectly-unhinged]

Otto: What's your problem, Daemon?

Daemon: I don't know, but I'm sure it can be traced back to you.

Goddamnit as a Subaru fan I'm so happy that everyone sees Subaru as a hero but as an Otto fan I'm so scared that everyone sees Subaru as a hero.... Does that make sense?

So, a serious life update.

I have been working double shifts at my job just to make the hours I need to cover all my bills. And recently, the store I work at came under new management. With this, a lot of people have quit because it’s a very religious, close minded store, and the new owner and some of the workers clash heads. One of the ones that quit was my boss/manager.

It was today that I was approached and asked to slowly take over as manager to replace the one that left. I said yes.

A little of it is perhaps spite. That manager who quit absolutely hated my fucking guts and did little things to piss me the fuck off on purpose. They had confirmed this a couple times to other workers who told me. Not only having them come up to me and say it to my face. So, a little of it is spit, but also a lot of it is to try and help out genuinely as best as I can.

It’s also here that I ask myself, is it worth it? It’s an old mom and pop shop and honestly… the majority of me wants to help run it just so I can pay bills, but this store isn’t where my heart is… it’s being creative.

As an INFP, you can guess just how much I so badly wish to prioritize my creativity and passion to show off everything I’ve been working on… but can’t. With the long hours I’ve been working and new roles at work, I’m struggling…

I’m picking at my projects, many that I have started and unable to finished, and I’m getting little bits done here and there. Last month, I procrastinated so bad it was embarrassing… but I want to make this month better, different, productive!

With all that being said, I’m taking it one step at a time and hope that I can get something done by the end of this year. If not, I’ll keep trying.

To all of you reading this, thank you for taking your time to do so, I wish you all the best of luck and much love.

i think it’s deeply silly to call second born children “middle class” or people who know ~struggle~ and idk where that impulse is coming from bc i’ve seen this take a LOT lately (i think s2 of hotd is rotting everyone’s brains tbh). like “otto had to earn everything he’s gotten” are we somehow also making the argument that kevan lannister or bran stark are middle class and have to ~work for everything they got~ or can we acknowledge that just like every other noble in this series they were all handed immense privilege by their older brothers? like, bran is not ever going to worry about being homeless lol and neither would otto; hell, tywin fucking hates tyrion and is looking for an excuse to disinherit him and says as much to his face but tyrion never suffers for anything materially (until the trial) because regardless of his status as a disabled man, a younger brother, or the scapegoat for all his family’s problems, they’re not going to let him wallow in squalor!! otto, kevan, quentyn, bran, like 70% of the freys, oberyn, ned and benjen, daemon - these are all second born sons and they are not at all equivalent to someone in the modern day who is one medical crisis away from poverty! they are noble born and castles are fucking huge, even if they never married an heiress or their daughters never married heirs, they would NAWT have been homeless!

Wait hold up for a second.

I get that the whole "Who's gonna sit the throne in the meantime?" thing was supposed to be setting up the (frankly fucking stupid) rift between Aegon and Aemond or whatever

That's literally the Hand's job. They're supposed to be the one in charge if the King isn't able to do that, that's the whole point, they're not just like the number one advisor, that's their whole purpose, that's usually why they're chosen carefully, because they're supposed to act on behalf of the King when the King can't/won't/doesn't want to, whatever.

Now, I can't see Criston wanting to do that, like sure he's committed to the war or whatever, but he's never shown any signs of ambition aside from his weird desire for revenge, the main reason he got to be Hand was because he happened to be in the room when Aegon took it from Otto (and because he backed him up about wanting someone to pay for Jaehaerys) so I think he would've turned it down if anyone had asked him because he'd rather lead the armies or whatever

But the scene of the Council discussing it makes no sense, because no one ever points out that it's Criston's job to rule in Aegon's stead until he heals enough to return or doesn't recover and then Aemond would take over as next in line, they just jump right to saying it should be Aemond.

THAT'S NOT HOW ANY OF THIS WORKS, RYAN, WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING??

Not Otto being the Westerosi face of unemployment AGAIN.
