Summary: Johnny and Simon are both done with their military service and now live in the English countryside. However, Johnny's time in the military left him disabled and with a lot of unresolved issues. You and your boyfriend moved into their sleepy town and Johnny just knows you need saving.

Pairings: Ghoap x reader

Warnings: Domestic abuse, Soap has PTSD, Violence

A/N: So, I was supposed to writing part two on my other story, but I got writer's block. This just popped up in my head.

Johnny wasn’t a creep. Majority of people that came across him would describe him as a good guy that's just a bit intense. In fact, Johnny was such a good person that he risked and was willing to sacrifice his life for his country. While his time in the military didn’t kill him, although sometimes he wished it did, he did lose a leg and got some brain damage. The point is that Johnny sacrificed enough to indulge himself once in a while.

It’s not like he was causing you any harm. No, he was just keeping an eye on you. Despite the fact that he’s only ever really seen you from afar and never even spoke to you he felt this overwhelming protectiveness over you. He knew that your boyfriend was no good. 

Boyfriend

Not your husband. Neither of you two wore a ring. Not to mention that when the two of you moved into the small house down the road and Johnny and Simon went to introduce themselves he very pointedly said that his girlfriend lives with him as well. Johnny didn’t have the chance to speak to you then. It’s not like he really wanted anyway. 

Your boyfriend wasn’t a very pleasant person to be around. It only worsened when he found out that Johnny and Simon were in a relationship. Johnny figured that only a woman that was as unpleasant as him was able to put up with. But they say that opposite attracts. 

It was nearly a month after meeting your boyfriend that Johnny finally saw you. In that month Johnny had plenty of interactions with your boyfriend. None of them that Johnny enjoyed. 

Every morning Johnny would go for a walk. At first Simon would walk with him, but Johnny needed to go alone. It’s not that he didn’t love Simon. He did with all his heart. But he needed the freedom. Needed to prove that he was capable. Even if that meant going for a walk by himself.  

Johnny knew that the only reason Simon allowed him to go on these walks was because they lived in the British countryside. Crime rarely ever happened in their small town. Johnny also knew that despite being in such a safe town Simon would follow him on these little walks. Of course when he first figured this out he was furious, but Johnny had lost the will to fight over most things. He needed these walks for his sanity. If the price to pay was having Simon follow him from afar he would gladly take it. Besides he sacrificed way bigger things before.  

He often zoned out of these walks. That’s probably why he didn’t notice you at first. It was your sobs that brought him out of his daydreams. You were sitting on the side of the road in front of your house just bawling your eyes out. It took him a while to register that you were that asshole’s girlfriend. 

By the time that his foot started to move towards you the front door to your house swung open. The loud noise caused him to stop in his tracks. He hated loud noises now. It caused him to freeze and retreat back inside of his head. His comfort space. He could still see and hear what’s going on around him. He just couldn’t process it. 

He saw your boyfriend stomping outside of the house right up to the two of you. He heard your boyfriend yelling at you and then at him. But he couldn’t understand the words that were spewing out of his mouth. He couldn’t move his foot. His crutches seemed to be buried into the ground keeping him glued to the spot. He wanted to move so bad. Or at least tell him to stop. But he couldn’t. 

His unresponsiveness only seemed to make your boyfriend madder. So mad that he came up to Johnny chest to chest. Johnny was taller but he was in no shape to fight. When your boyfriend lightly shoved Johnny's chest he toppled over like a domino. 

Although that only served further paralyzed Johnny it put you into motion. You put yourself in between Johnny and your boyfriend begging. Johnny couldn't understand what you were saying but did understand that you were attempting to defend him. 

It wasn’t needed however, because in the next 30 seconds your boyfriend was flat on the ground with Simon on top of him pounding his face in. You knew better than to get in between Simon and your boyfriend so you just stood to the side begging him to stop. 

Simon turned his head toward you and for a second Johnny was sure that you were next. But he knew that Simon wasn’t one to hit women. Instead you and Simon exchange a few words. Johnny didn’t understand he could see your mouth move and hear the words, but his brain refused to translate the words.  

Johnny groaned in frustration causing the two of you to snap your heads towards him. The rest was a blur. When Johnny came again he was in his bed. The whole ordeal was a mess but Johnny came out of it with a strange fascination with you. 

He was more aware of you. For someone that he’s never seen around before you seemed to be in a lot of places. He never approached you though. Simon had warned him to avoid both you and your boyfriend at all costs. 

However, Simon never said anything about watching you. It’s not like he was stalking you. No, it just so happens that the two of you rarely had anywhere to go and often enjoyed taking walks through the English countryside.

"Educate the men!" Education is a requirement for those who are stupid, unaware or illiterate, and not for those who are evil. Men can receive knowledge about everything and they will still commit all these heinous crimes that they already do. The most successful, richest and powerful men are highly educated from the prestigious universities, and yet the most corrupt and evil people on this planet. When you feed a monster’s brain with knowledge, you unlock his potential to cause more destruction. He becomes more powerful and prosperous but he remains a monster. Education is a blessing that these men do not deserve. Instead, educate the women. Because a lot of women are stupid as a collectivist. It’s women who are unaware. It’s women who lose all their common sense whenever they hang out with men. Therefore, educate women about their rights. Educate women on why they should stop caring about men. Educate women about separatism. Educate women on how to be rich and successful. Educate women about how patriarchy works. Educate women about freedom. Education is empowering. So empower women. Yes, men naturally lack intelligence, they lack wisdom, and they are the most dumbest species on this planet. But you’re forgetting that they are all sadists as well; the trait that you cannot erase by feeding their minds. Knowledge brings out the smartness in a woman, but it brings out the most cunning nature of a man. So don’t waste your energy teaching men about everything. You teach a man how to cook and he will still murder his wife for overcooking his meal. You teach a man about female bodily anatomy and he will jerk off to every single detail he hears about it. You teach a man he’s allowed to cry and he will use his tears as a tool to play victim. You teach a man about technology and he will use his skills to send threats to women. You teach a man why the world is dangerous for women and he will use that information to control women in his family in the name of "protection" just to flex his masculinity. You teach a man about feminism and all he will think about is how he can reap out his own benefits from it. If you seriously think educating men will liberate women then you actually need to educate yourself and continue doing that until you learn and realise that men do not care about women.

The next stage of this chess game to protect American democracy, along with all other democracies and free peoples of the world, uses the Adversary's Anderson vs. trump ruling and their obsession with "States Rights!!!" against them.

Many people may have heard by now that Jack Smith is asking for the judge to dismiss donald j. trump's January 6th insurrectionist prosecution due to the presidential election; because even though the prosecution's case against donald j. trump is strong, and he's undoubtedly guilty of all charges, the U.S. Department of Justice can't prosecute a sitting president, but they'd very much like to continue prosecuting him in the future should the opportunity present itself; so they're asking for the judge to dismiss the case without prejudice to keep the possibility of donald j. trump's future criminal prosecution wide open.

This is a perfect addition to the chess game against donald j. trump; because it just denied donald trump and his entire MAGA cult the opportunity to try and make people forget that he's a disqualified insurrectionist who was never legally and constitutionally cleared of his disqualification from ever holding any state or federal office again; and that he's attempting to illegally sneak back into presidential immunity without anyone noticing Congress never cleared him of his insurrectionist disqualification with the constitutionally necessary two-thirds vote of both houses . Jack Smith and the U.S. DOJ just loudly and proudly slammed that whopper right back upon the chess board for everyone to see, think about, and discuss amongst themselves. Brilliant!

Technically, the following chess strategy doesn't count as states attempting to enforce Section 3 of the 14th Amendment on a disqualified insurrectionist federal/presidential candidate. The states are simply enforcing Section 3 of the 14th Amendment on themselves, on a state level, on state electors and a state governor, and so MAGA SCOTUS can go and pound sand; because they already ruled that states CAN enforce Section 3 of the 14th Amendment on state officers and agents in their Anderson vs. trump ruling.

MAGA SCOTUS can't force constitutionally sworn-in state electors and state governors to disqualify themselves from ever holding state office by violating Section 3 of the 14th Amendment by giving aid and comfort to a criminally indicted and federally prosecuted disqualified insurrectionist federal/presidential candidate named donald j. trump, so it's Checkmate City, game over, for dumb donald chump, MAGA SCOTUS, and the entire MAGA cult.

Kamala Harris' Existing Electoral College Votes: 226 + 89 Electoral College Votes From 8 Democrat Governors = 315 Electoral College Votes (Better-Than-2020 Landslide Victory!)

donald j. trump's Existing Electoral College Votes: 312 - 89 Electoral College Votes From 8 Democrat Governors = 223 Electoral College Votes (Worse-Than-2020 Landslide Defeat!)

All it takes to protect American democracy, along with all other democracies and free peoples of the world, is 8 Democrat governors refusing to throw their careers away by giving aid and comfort to criminally indicted and federally prosecuted disqualified insurrectionist, donald j. trump. It shouldn't be too difficult to simply remind these 8 Democrat governors that donald j. trump isn't worth destroying their careers, American democracy, and the U.S. Constitution along with them. All it takes is 8 more emails from as many people as you can inspire to join this fight for humanity and freedom, and we'll win!

Dear Governor of the State of Arizona, Katie Hobbs,

On March 4th, 2024, the Supreme Court of the United States made it perfectly clear to criminally indicted and federally prosecuted insurrectionist, Donald J. Trump, that while states cannot enforce Section 3 of the 14th Amendment of the U.S. Constitution on a candidate seeking to hold, or attempting to hold, federal office, it would require 70 Democrats in the U.S. House of Representatives and 17 Democrats in the U.S. Senate to clear Donald J. Trump's insurrectionist disqualification from ever holding any state or federal office again. As you are well aware, those 87 Democrats in the U.S. Congress haven't cleared Donald J. Trump of his insurrectionist disqualification. Accordingly, should any Arizona elector attempt to elect disqualified insurrectionist Donald J. Trump as 47th President of the United States, they'd be giving aid and comfort to a known disqualified insurrectionist, and would therefore be instantly disqualified from serving as a lawfully certified elector, and any certificates of ascertainment created by Arizona's unlawful electors would be instantly null and void. Additionally, per Section 3 of the 14th Amendment of the U.S. Constitution, should you, Katie Hobbs, as Governor of the State of Arizona, sign and attempt to legitimize any unlawfully created certificates of ascertainment attempting to elect disqualified insurrectionist Donald J. Trump as the 47th President of the United States of America, you would also be instantly disqualified from ever holding any state or federal office again, and would therefore be required to immediately resign as the Governor of the State of Arizona due to your insurrectionist disqualification, unless you were cleared by a two-thirds vote of Arizona's elected Republicans and Democrats.

Please seek immediate legal counsel and choose your path, and the paths of Arizona's electors, wisely.

ʚɞ pairing : jongho x reader ʚɞ au : idol! | 9th member ʚɞ summary : you and jongho celebrate the release of your new song ʚɞ word count: 1.175 words ʚɞ what if! jongho and yn dated

When the news broke about you and Jongho, everyone was caught off guard. Atiny and KQ were in shock, some even rubbing their eyes to make sure they weren’t seeing things. Jongho, the one who was known for being guarded and never giving much away, had somehow kept his relationship with you completely under wraps.

It wasn’t like they didn’t know you two were close—there had been subtle moments, like the way Jongho’s gaze would linger just a little longer on you, or how he’d show up at random events you were at, standing protectively by your side. But no one ever expected an official announcement, least of all from someone as private as him.

The reaction was a mix of disbelief, surprise, and then instant excitement. Atiny immediately flooded social media, expressing how happy they were for you two, though they also jokingly mourned the loss of the Jongho they thought they knew. Fans couldn’t believe that their quiet, almost mysterious bias had managed to pull this off without anyone suspecting a thing.

KQ, meanwhile, couldn’t hide their surprise either. Even the staff was taken aback, knowing how careful Jongho was about keeping his personal life private. The question on everyone’s lips? How did they manage to keep it a secret for so long?

But despite the surprise, there was a sense of warmth. People could see how comfortable Jongho was around you, how the gruff exterior melted just a bit when you were by his side. It was clear that behind the surprise, there was a quiet certainty—that you were the one he wanted.

Once the secret was out, you couldn't help but bask in the newfound freedom to show affection toward Jongho. Whether it was casually holding his hand during a quiet moment or resting your head on his shoulder, you were all over him, and it made everything feel right. The closeness that had been so carefully hidden was finally out in the open, and you didn’t hold back.

Jongho, though usually reserved, couldn’t help but relax when you were around. His usual walls seemed to soften, and it was as if he had finally found his comfort zone. You saw it, of course—how his posture would shift when you sat next to him, the little smiles he would give you when you caught his eye. He let his guard down, especially when he was with you, and his members couldn’t help but notice the change.

It was a rare, peaceful moment between you and Jongho, just the two of you lying in bed together, wrapped in the warmth of each other’s presence. You were resting against his chest, his arm draped around you as you lazily scrolled through your phone, checking up on the latest news. You had been waiting for the drop of your music video, and the anticipation had been building all day.

Finally, the moment came—your music video was live. You could feel the excitement bubbling up inside you. With a quiet giggle, you showed the screen to Jongho, who sat up a little straighter, his eyes lighting up with pride as he looked at the video, his hand still resting on your back.

Before either of you could react further, the door to your room flung open with a burst of energy, and in stormed your bandmates. Their faces lit up with a mix of excitement and pure joy, all of them screaming in unison, "It’s out! It’s out!"

You and Jongho shot up, both startled by the sudden noise. But that was quickly followed by laughter and cheers as your members rushed to surround you, each one throwing their arms around you and congratulating you. Yeosang was already grinning ear to ear, trying to grab your phone to show you their reactions. "It’s trending! You guys look amazing in the video!" he shouted.

Mingi and Wooyoung were practically jumping up and down, practically vibrating with excitement. "I can’t believe you two made such a killer video!" Wooyoung added, looking at you and Jongho, his teasing smile never fading.

San gave you a playful side hug, lifting you off the bed for a moment. "I’m so proud of you guys! This is it. This is the one that’s going to blow up," he said, shaking his head in disbelief.

Hongjoong, never one to show too much outward emotion, was silently smiling, his arms crossed as he watched the excitement unfold. "You both really killed it," he said, his voice soft but filled with pride.

Jongho, despite his usual reserved nature, couldn’t help but chuckle at their reactions, feeling the pride swelling in his chest. You, too, felt the warmth spreading through you as you realized that this moment, your achievement, was being celebrated by the people who knew you best.

You leaned over, brushing your lips against Jongho’s cheek as the room erupted in laughter and congratulations. "We did it," you whispered, your voice full of happiness. Jongho nodded, his hand gently pulling you back toward him, as if savoring the moment.

"Yeah, we did," he replied, his usual gruffness softened by the happiness of the moment.

Jongho's voice was low and husky as he whispered in your ear, his lips brushing against the sensitive skin there, sending shivers down your spine. His usual gruff tone was replaced by something softer, something warmer—a tone that always had you melting. "You did so amazing," he murmured, his breath warm against your ear, his arm tightening around your waist as he held you close. "I’m so proud of you."

The praises flowed effortlessly from him, making your heart race, your cheeks flush with warmth. You couldn’t help but smile, your eyes meeting his as he pulled back just slightly, his eyes gleaming with something mischievous.

When the door slammed behind the last of the members, Jongho’s smirk grew. There was a certain playfulness in his eyes now, the atmosphere shifting as his voice dropped even lower, turning it into a seductive whisper. "Should I give you your congratulation present?"

His words hung in the air, sending a thrill through you. You felt your pulse quicken, a teasing smile tugging at your lips. You could see that mischievous glint in his eyes, the way his lips curled up slightly, his hand resting lightly on your thigh as he waited for your answer.

The way he looked at you, the confidence he exuded, had your heart racing even faster. "What kind of present do you have in mind?" you asked, your voice soft but playful, not backing down from his challenge.

Jongho’s smirk deepened, his gaze darkening with intent as he leaned in closer, his lips brushing against your ear again. "I think you’ll like this one," he whispered, his hand sliding up to rest gently on your waist as he leaned in to press his lips against yours.

And as his kiss deepened, the rest of the world seemed to fade away, leaving only the two of you—celebrating, lost in the moment of the love and success you shared.

lila is irresponsible and needs to discipline her son better because lets be real. whos fault is it that skid keeps thinking its ok to disrespect adults and run off on his own. at the same time lila has been going through absolute hell and i genuinely do not understand how anyone thinks she could be able to raise skid by herself. she lives in Nightmare Land. this is a town possibly founded by a cult. like. listen ok this is everything thats happened from her perspective

-her husband and love of her life dies and she is inconsolable. assuming her husband didnt allow her or skid to be outside on their own, she lets skid experience his first taste of freedom at the candy store

-skid and pump are outside avoiding the danger of the two thieves and return home perfectly fine, saying they saw the stars

-lila keeps skid away from the rat and is later attacked by a demon. skid returns home unscathed with a toy and the demon is "defeated"

-skid is sent to mr wonders house, and assumes hes stayed at his house the entire time she was gone, since susie told her nothing. she successfully protects skid and pump from the doll and no longer deems it a threat

-lila missed the news that bob velseb escaped from prison, therefore assuming that its safe for skid to be outside on his own. there are also many kids walking outside by themselves already, not just lilas. its only after a direct confrontation with bob that she runs off on her own to find skid and bring him home safely

-her house is broken into again even with a newly installed alert system, and trusts jaune to take her out to drink to cope with the stress. she still assumes susie and mr wonder are capable of taking care of skid. when she comes home, shes told off for being irresponsible and receives little to no elaboration or sympathy

what lila needs to recognize is that her son is very likely getting into dangerous situations without her knowledge. she doesnt need to know what happened, just needs to see that there might be a pattern. skid is physically and mentally healthy, yes, but its a precaution she needs to take. she can track him on his phone or find the time to take him and pump places on her own. and im not gonna judge her too harshly yet for leaving him alone in episode 7 (presumably) because i dont think this is something people will get right on the first try. skid himself mightve fallen back into old habits and snuck off, who knows. lila clearly loves and cares for her son. like an Incredible amount, but she needs to stop thinking that letting him outside on his own or with other kids is safe. if it was fine before, its not fine now. this needs to be clear to her. if only a certain yellow themed individual showed concern for her friends son and not just his mother. i dont know, im not a drinking buddy

its not just her thinking this, jaune does this with her own kid, ross. carmen does this with roy, she doesnt seem worried one bit about roy being on his own, her only concern is who he hangs out with. as for susie? even though shes a teen, shes more concerned for what their grandpa will think. mr wonder himself doesnt have any idea what pump is doing outside either. this responsibility falls on a majority of the town, and its scary that lila, who has the closest ties to the actual cult leader influencing their livelihoods, has fallen victim to the same irresponsible parenting habits

mayor evermore is a heavy influence, too. hes already convinced the citizens into believing the town is just slightly more safe by removing gun rights and restricting them only to the police force. and as for the police force? evermore was 100% willing to replace jack and john with two incompetent nutjobs, fully believing them to be unable to get rid of a serial killer in less than 24 hours, as if he didnt want them to be successful. thats Such a horrible decision to make, and i cannot see this benefiting the townsfolk at all. i dont know, im not a mayor

you know what, there Was an actual responsible adult who looked over skid and pump and made sure they were safe, following them and disciplining them over the many dangers and warning signs they overlooked. you know what happened to him? he got indoctrinated by the cult overseeing the entire town. its because hes a priest posing a threat to their own religion, but its still telling that the only adult who was able to convince skid and pump to be more responsible and look out for themselves, was heavily reprimanded for it. and who knows, pumps parents couldve been responsible themselves, but we all know they were forcibly separated from him and susie, leaving them under the care of their grandpa who already needs his own separate help. i cant assume theres a pattern, but its still strange

etc etc not only is lila struggling to be a responsible mother but this stupid cult town is making her and her friends actively worse parents by tricking them into thinking their kids are in zero danger. all these missing kids posters, and somehow theyre still convinced their children will return home safe and sound. they cant all seriously be that stupid. this isnt derogatory im seriously concerned for these people. what are they being told on the news. maybe if lila learns to be responsible, itll break the cycle and help her friends and her friends friends be better themselves or something. i feel like these citizens are being left in the dark about whats Truly happening. i dont know, im not a parent

Could you do a yandere Caitlyn kiramman from arcane X fem reader?

Resolve

Yandere Caitlyn Kiramman X Fem Reader

“You know if you weren’t so stubborn this wouldn’t have-“ Caitlyn cuts herself off upon seeing the pouted glare you sent her way, probably supposed to be intimidating but Caitlyn has to bite back a fond smile as how cute it truly is. She hated to see you all laid up in bed, wrapped up from the injuries you’d gotten from a particularly close escape attempt.

“I was just trying to escape the psycho enforcer who seems intent on making my life miserable but it seems like the universe hates me as much as you do.” Your words practically drip with bitterness and had it been anyone else Cait would be just as cruel back but this was you. The zaunite who’d enraptured her, so how could she say anything pointed when you were right.

Not about her hating you, Cait could never hate you no matter how many times you ran or attempted to put her down for good to secure your freedom. She had been acting a bit crazy lately though, truthfully she’d been out of her mind ever since meeting you in the undercity when Vi took her to that hole in the wall… ’establishment’ to get information from an old friend. Leaving her all alone at your flirtatious mercy.

But ever since Jinx’s attack on the council she was even more feral. Back then she’d been content visiting you any free chance she got and paying lavishly for private visits up topside, hoping to win your heart honestly. Though after losing her mother, her hope and most of her heart, now she wanted, no needed you all the time. Needed you under lock and key at her place where she could keep you safe.

Cait sighs calming her bubbling anxieties at your rage and the general tension of her home, your home. “I wish you could understand, I only want to protect you” she brings a hand to you, pushing stray hair behind your ear and caressing your cheek. She shouldn’t relish in the pained wince when you attempt to lift an injured arm to swat her away, but she does just a bit. Hoping this would soften your attempts to escape just a bit and hoping the care you’d need from her over the coming weeks would soften you to her too.

“Understand?! I thought you were different. I thought you understood! Understood that we were different than you’d been told, that we were people just like you but you’re just like all the rest. Thinking your name and being from topside means you can do whatever you want to us…” your voice breaks and Cait feels her heart shatter along with it. “To me!”

She rests her forehead against yours like she used to, back before, back when the both of you thought maybe you could love her back. “I do understand, I know you’re different” your eyes meet hers and you feel a glimmer of hope, Caitlyn can see it in and she wants so badly to see that light forever. “But the undercity isn’t. That’s why you belong here, with me”

You let yourself go limp and Cait lets you fall from her arms, back onto the bed. Lets you curl into yourself as much as you’re able and sob until you both shake. No matter what she wouldn’t leave you and she wouldn’t let you leave her. Cait would prove every word she’d spoken to you and she would be deserving of being the light in your eyes as you were hers. Once she’d made the undercity worthy of you, she’d let you return as long as she was near. Her love for you would carry her and all of piltover through, not even Jinx would sway her resolve this time.

One note was all the Prompting I needed.

HOUSE PLACEMENTS

MEL: 3rd House all the way, but 2nd house born.

The third house is most known for its opulence and as a hot bed for political intrigue. I'm 100% convinced she could necro politik with best of them. And given the tension between the 3rd and 2nd house wre know exist thanks to the 1st book, Ambessa sending Mel as a sort of ambassador sets her apart as an outsider both to her home on the second and her peers on the 3rd.

Given her big reveal as a sorcerer in the finale I think she'd be a lay necromancer, maybe even with ties to the Blood of Eden that she isn't aware of.

Jayce: 6th house

Initially I thought 5th house, but I think given his main ambitions involve using knowledge of magic/science to better other lives, yes I might be drawing a handful of parallels with Palamedese, having him come from the smarty pants house feels natural. Especially because one of his core motivations for his pursuit of knowledge is to help people.

Viktor: 7th house. King of dying and coming back wrong.

His entire shtick has 7th house written all over it. Having him be a necromancer of the 7th feels appropriate because of the tension it would create between his very powerful will to survive and the fule for his abilities being the thing that's killing him. I'm gnawing at the bars of my cage.

Caitlyn: 2nd house born necro, 4th house enlisted.

The second house is more associated with Cohort leadership and bureaucracy while the 4th is the actual infantry. Given how Cait joining the enforceres in cannon is seen as a step down from her station I think her being born into an influential cohort family on the second and chosing to join the 4th would be thematically appropriate, and it gives her a wonderful opertunity to meet-

Vi: POW and vassel of the 4th house, formerly Blood Of Eden.

Vi would be lowest on the rung and enlisted against her will with the promise dangled over her of eventually (never, really. This is the 9 houses) earning her freedom. Her hatred for the institution she's bound to and her grief in being forced to fight people she loves (Boe, other rebles, ect) feels like it aligns with her backstory. I think Cait would seek her out both because she's a skilled fighter and because she's also an outsider, seeing someone impartial to Cohort politicking and a fresh set of eyes. I think she'd pull whatever weight she has to get Vi assigned to her as her Caviler, much like she did getting Vi out of prison in canon. Lots of parallels with Gideon's initial arc in the first book, but other people have pointed out theor similarities already.

Last house placement bc I think it fits.

Singed: the 9th house, necromancer.

It's so easy to see him holed up in the 9th house as one of the 9th house faithful who came to lay his daughter to rest in the ossuary and just never left. Especially with a double motive in being close to the Locked Tomb in order to reaserch its wards, hoping to break them and maybe use whatever is inside to revive his daughter, even if it means dooming the whole world. Also former BOE.

BLOOD OF EDEN MEMEBERS

So because of the nature of the conflict in TLT and Arcane both featuring major aspects of class struggle and war, im assigning most of the Zaun aligned characters to the BOE in some way or another.

Ekko: BOE, most visible rebel to the people.

Definitely a 3 times refuge of the houses. At his core he's a community leader, so I think he'd be most busy building grassroots resistance to the 9 House empire and direct community action. The necessary but unglorious work of things like food distribution, health outreach are all his sphere. His direct work with the BOE always goes towards things like sabotoging Cohort supply lines, equipment sabatoge and the like.

He comes into conflict with other BOE because they open civilians up to too much risk and sacrifice. In his eyes protecting people from the houses takes priority.

Sevika: Silco's former right hand and defacto leader of BOE after his passing. She's inherited all of the irons Silco had in the fire and is struggling to turn them into an offensive against the houses in his absence.

Vander and Silco: BOE, both dead. Their conflict and death lead to a power vacuum and a loss of organization within the BOE. Ekko and Sevika both represent the philosophical split between them in the org.

And ofc,

JINX: AWOL BOE, princess of dying and coming back wrong.

Just like how Singed revived Jinx in s1 in this instance I think Silco would have enlisted him to revive her, despite the BOE opposition to necromancy. Jinx gets to see her sister torn from her by the empire that's made her entire life suffering and refashioned into one of its agents, be saved by the morally bankrupt magic of the empire, and see her family devolve into infighting. I genuinely think she'd be a free agent outside of the BOE.

This is the most ever written in years the finale genuinely has me ill.

Shluld I assign Arcane characters Nine House placements just to feel something? That ending has my mind churning.

AN OPEN LETTER to THE U.S. CONGRESS

Stop the attacks on trans people! Introduce and pass the EQUALITY Act now!

2,621 so far! Help us get to 3,000 signers!

I’m writing out of great alarm at the attacks on LGBTQ people in our country. I’m particularly horrified at how trans people—especially trans kids—are being targeted. I agree with President Biden—it’s the duty of national legislators “to protect all the people’s rights and freedoms,” and to “pass the bipartisan Equality Act to ensure LGBTQ Americans, especially transgender young people, can live with safety and dignity.”

Right now, there are hundreds of state bills aimed at denying the LGBTQ+ community the free speech, health care, civil rights, and public accommodation due ALL Americans. Together with encouraging hateful rhetoric and physical violence, this is akin to state-sponsored terrorism against a peaceful minority. Historically, we’ve seen this before. It is a precursor to genocide.

Have you publicly spoken against anti-trans and anti-gay state laws? What other actions are you taking to protect the rights and freedoms of their LGBTQ+ constituents? What level of tragedy will it take to change this?

Attacking marginalized communities is the opposite of what our country is supposed to be about. I expect to see you take strong action to oppose it. Thanks.

I think depictions of Anya being cruel to Curly or drawing out his suffering are artful and chilling but completely miss the point of the story and her character.

I'm not saying she doesn't deserve to have that "I told you so" moment with him but not in something callous or cold. Even if that is how it happened, she'd immediately feel guilty cause at that point she's not tormenting her tormenter or even the person truly at fault. She's doing something cathartic, similar to how Jimmy likely hits Curly to release rage he can't against the rest of the crew. She'd see herself as no different when she'd come back from the moment and see Curly cowering at her. She wants someone to take responsibility but how does being cruel to the defenseless help? Why would she want the power Jimmy has over her over Curly?

The idea of her extending someone else's pain is just so against the struggles she already faces and how she can't even bring herself to cause someone pain even to help them. Her very desire is to release herself from her own suffering and I doubt she'd even fine some sort of guilty release in being cruel to another.

say hi to me i don't know, i just remembered being so much brighter, i guess

cigarette ash like wildfire burning holes in the nighttime open scars feel like barbed wire white lies flying high like a ceasefire dropping flags on the shoreline this is as far as i can feel right 'cause what you don't know can haunt you

don't drag it out living like that doesn't mean a thing

so let's, make a great escape and i'll be waiting outside for the getaway it doesn't matter who we are we'll keep running through the dark and all we'll ever need is another day we can slow down 'cause tomorrow is a mile away and live like shooting stars 'cause happy endings hardest to fake

and i wanna let you know i wanna let you go but i just can't bring myself to speak but this is how it goes the end credits, they roll this bridge was built over kerosene but we can watch it and all i ever wanted was sunlight and honesty highlights to want to repeat let's get away from here and live like the movies do i won't mind when it's over at least i didn't think

so let's run, make a great escape and i'll be waiting outside for the getaway it doesn't matter who we are we'll keep running through the dark and all we'll ever need is another day we can slow down 'cause tomorrow is a mile away and live like shooting stars you can wish away forever but you'll never find a thing like today

America became America from people who were trying to get away from their oppressors, who were treated unfairly, who wanted a better life, and who did not want to put up with tyrannical behavior and oppression and loss of their rights from their leaders? Why is it now that the descendants of these people want to elect a man just like those oppressors. Where are good people looking for a better life going to go now? Vote Harris. 2024 Almost all of our families started from immigrants coming to America at one time. Even Donald Trump's relatives. In 1885, Donald Trump's grandparents immigrated here from the Kingdom of Bavaria looking for a better life. All of the immigrants who came here are people like you and me. We wouldn't be here to vote without those immigrants. And for the record, people are not illegal. They are people in search of freedom and a better life. That's the American dream. Don't let a meglomaniacal tyrant make that dream a nightmare for anyone else. Vote BLUE!!! Vote for Kamala Harris and make a positive difference for our future!! 💙💙💙

To every terf, bigot, etc coming across this post

Leave us alone

We are bothering nobody

We are literally just living a life

And you don't even have to agree with us, but at the very least we deserve is human decency

I'm going to put this in the language you want to hear.

You can say "men don't get periods" or "trans women aren't women" all you want, you have the right to talk your views (even if they hurt others), but this doesn't make you immune to conciquence

You can name science, even though biology has proven to us that sex assigned is more than male/female. You can name any religious reason under the fucking sun (once again, not without backlash or consequence)

But all of us regardless of views deserve the basic modicum of respect which is:

The right of autonomy (let us be)

The right to comfort

The right to identify as what we want

The right to access healthcare

The right to be identified accurately

The right to not be targeted by hate

How would you feel if we did the same to you? If we removed your right to religion, to healthcare, to protection just because you are who you are, would you be just as patient?

Because im losing my fucking patience. Its gotten so bad thst I've considered detransitioning because of how volatile people are towards the topic. I've been labeled woke, mentally insane, dillusional and a groomer by the right leaning side of everything. These are words I see too often. I'm just living comfortably or at least trying to.

And to all those saying, even if it was a choice to change gender, SO FUCKING WHAT? Why does that mean I should be shunned for feeling differently than someone else?

To the trans allies and trans people who see this:

Keep this going. Add your thoughts, say your bit, or simply just reblog. Let the love outweigh the hate. Every reblog shows that a trans life is deserving of equal respect.

[jammatown919]

There's a lot (and I do mean a LOT) to be said about current events in Israel and Gaza, and I'm still trying to educate myself on the history and stay updated and make sure I don't spread misinformation, but what I do think is quite cut and dry is people in Gaza are in DESPERATE need of humanitarian relief. Hospitals are overwhelmed, it seems access to basic necessities like water is spotty at best, power is frequently being cut.

If you're like me, a random person sitting in American and watching all this on the news, there is something you can do. If you've got the money to spare, consider donating to groups like Doctors Without Borders Help save lives in Gaza, Afghanistan, Sudan, and in 70+ countries | Doctors Without Borders. As well as the Palestinian Red Crescent Society. Palestine Red Crescent Society (palestinercs.org). These are well known organizations trying to provide humanitarian aid to those suffering due to the bombings in Gaza.

If you don't have the money, this one I'm less sure about, but Arab.org seems like it could also be a decent way to lend a monetary hand. You can visit the site once a day and record a click, which can generate money for various causes, one of which is Palestine.

And, of course, educate yourself as much as you're able to. Call your representatives (which you can do at ANY time) and demand that they get with Israel, whose military the US is funding, and demand a humanitarian ceasefire.

If people want to reblog with additional resources, feel free.

funny how almost every time my mother tries to say something homophobic or transphobic she actually ends up accidentally coming out as queer.

"you kids with all of your labels are ridiculous bla bla bla in my day if you felt like making out with your same sexed friend you just did it, you didn't have to be gay or bisexual or pansexual or whatever" 👀

"how does one even know if they're a man or a woman except for what their body looks like. that's crap, gender isn't a thing you feel. for example i don't feel like a woman, or a man. i'm a woman because duh (points at own body) but that's not something i identify as. i couldn't say i feel like a woman, that means nothing to me. trans people are just making shit up, gender isn't real, only biological sex is." 👀
