Well, Noa and Mae are the classic enemies-to-allies-to-enemies again-to probably allies again-to friends-to-angsty-and-doomed-love and you can't convince me otherwise sorry
Noa ain't slick. He claimed to be the biggest human hater, then he gets the telescope scene with Mae and then all of a sudden this boy goes "you're coming with us" & keeps her from harms way.... Okay Noa you ain't fooling anyone 🙄
"He's an ape and she's a human." - Okay, and? Are real apes and humans going at it?
"It's weird." - Again, no REAL animal or human is involved. Also this is tumblr. If you have been here long enough or a while, I know you have seen weirder.
"It's clogging up the kotpota tag." - It's actually not. Even if it is you can literally scroll and ignore. You don't have to engage with it. Also there is this wonderful thing called blocking tags.
You are the problem. You are clogging up the tags with your constant judgment, purity culture rhetoric and Anti bullshit. Ignore it. It's that easy.
just remembered a wip i had which was jay at uni meeting normal people and desperately trying to act cool and normal whilst internally screaming about being in a whole new place with all new people and not having his gang with him
Daily excerpt from chapter 85 of Underline the Black:
‘Do you really think so?’ Gary said. ‘Cella, listen, I appreciate that you’re upset, but-’
‘Upset?’ she said, tears coming to her eyes. ‘I have to take drugs to come here just to be able to stand up to you like this. Do you know that? I have to literally take suppressants and other hormonal blockers just so you don’t hypnotise me into saying whatever I want to think.’
Efnisien stared at her. He had no idea that was true.
‘Don’t you fucking talk to me about being upset! You’re such scum. You killed my brother, you should be in jail, you fucking piece of-’
‘Hey,’ Efnisien said, breaking out of Gary’s grip and stepping in front of him. ‘Shut the fuck up.’
Fanart for the season 1 finale of the Apollo Protection Agency podcast, a collaboration between myself and @shannanigan-art! Words are from Sylvia Plath’s “Lady Lazarus” to emphasize the deaths of key characters for an audience’s entertainment.
Listen to the APA here or on your preferred podcatcher.
Okay but Noa thinking his whole life that humans are little more than parasites or even pets?? And suddenly he meets a human who not only can speak but also can knock you out if she wants to and doesn't have time for bullshit and goes against everything he thought??? And Mae being raised to hate and fear apes?? And thinking they're the reason for all her problems and her crappy life?? And it turns out she meets one who not only treats her well but also is a kind of guy from a village who has no idea how the world works but still doesn't lose his 'humanity'??? How am I not supposed to ship them, someone explain it to me.
A lowland gorilla, saved from a bushmeat market, rests drowsily in the arms of the man who helped rescue her.
Pinkin, the gorilla, awoke after being sedated on a drive in Cameroon alongside Appolinaire Ndohoudou, a worker with Ape Action Africa.
The nonprofit works to save gorillas like Pinkin from bush meat markets, where butchered animals such as apes, elephants and antelopes are sold as food.
Poachers captured Pinkin and removed her from her habitat before she found herself safe with @ApeActionAfrica.
Appolinaire, who once fled Chad for Cameroon after a civil war, now helps raise gorillas like Pinkin.
