The "Do it For The Mission" Mentality
A Spy x Family analysis
I fucking adore, Twilight, this canonical uber talent spy , makes attempts to explain his kindness and care to his wife and child has something that has to be done to make Operations Strix successful.
Like Operation Strix is to get close to Donovan Desmond! WISE make it apart of the Operation where he had to have a family (which adds to the idea that I and most likely several of you have that WISE will make Twilight retire after Op. Strix!), but I think they could have easily made it where Loid Forger was a housemaster/professor (I understand that does nothing for the plot of the story but like-) instead of forcing him to have a family.
But let's say he has to have a family: He doesn't have to marry Yor, doesn't even have to use Yor at all! Yes, Yor makes the more believable! But similar to how all those spys dropped everything to help Twilight give Anya a fun time after you got into Eden I bet a spy would have dropped everything to pose as Loid's wife whenever he needed, or even be a mother to Anya for whole of the Operation, like if not a random Spy then Nightfall would have gladly done so!
Let's also say he has to have a civilian wife: There is no need to keep her happy! THERE ISN'T! There isn't really a need to keep Anya happy either!
"But E then people would talk and jeopardize the operation!"
It would make old woman in the apartment gossip but like you don't need to take your wife out for drinks, you don't need to take your wife out on a date because she seems unhappy, you don't need to ask her how she's doing, you don't need to remember that she said (lied) she was allergic to her lipstick buy her a tube of lipstick, you don't need get on your knees while ride a "romantic" Ferris Wheel and tell your fake wife that she is doing a good job because she feels down about the idea if seeing you with another woman and being fucking replaced! YOR HAPPINESS DOES NOTHING TO OPERATION! IT DOES NOTHING TO TWILIGHT'S MISSION (but of course make things easier to a center extend). In the mission Yor only has to be around to get Anya into Eden College she now theatrically serves no propose, it is actually a net negative to keep her around because that could allow Operation Strix to be compromised!
You make more an argument for Anya, keeping her happy makes it easier to get her to study and to doing the things Loid wants (if you take away the fact that pinkie babe has telepathy and she's going to try and do the things he wants to do anyway even though she just a 5 year-old and mostly likely fail!) which furthers getting her close to earning stellas. But like TWILIGHT YOU ARE A FUCKING SPY! He could easily manipulate the system from the shadows and get her stella stars and make the Operation conclude quicker.
"E, doesn't Twilight say at one point that say that the mission wasn't a sprint?"
Yeah, but there is a cold war going on why not get this mission done to get you one step closer to world peace.
Loid and of course Twilight does things for and with Yor and Anya to benefit no one but Yor and Anya. There is no need to act "weird" (weird in a comedy sense with purpose to keep his daughter happy) on a family cruise, buy Anya a stuffed animal to be successful, reassure Yor that she is doing a good job, GET ANYA A DOG (LOVE YOU Bond, I'm a sucker for elderly dogs) to make the mission successful.
If I had to define it I would link it to Twilight's own father being abusive and authoritative, causing him to have an aversion for being authoritative or even seem abusive in the family setting he has found himself in.
Because Twilight never really showcases a dislike for his situation. Where you could argue he often gets annoyed, I feel the things that annoy him are inconveniences
And you could say that the facial expressions:
are an indication of his "true feelings" of his situation, however I believe he's just annoyed that people could be around seeing him being soft.
Moreover, Twilight respects Yor and where it is the bare minimum for any man, he doesn't respect because she making his mission easier or whatever, he genuinely respects her (and honestly every woman he encounters to certain extent).
I don't know I think is just funny that Twilight is so adamant about keeping his wife and daughter (which are only that for a mission to keep world peace) happy not to make his mission but because of the idea that if they are unhappy or even miserable that Operation Strix would fail.

so. i understand where the sentiment "listening to an audiobook is the same thing as reading the book" is coming from - i mean, yes, the bottom line is you are taking in the same words in what is possibly a more accessible (or maybe just more enjoyable) format for you! and i'm 100% in agreement that "book snobs" who say "no you didn't really read it" if you listened to the audiobook are full of shit. ofc you should engage with stories in whatever way works for you, there is no moral or intellectual superiority to reading words off a page vs. listening to them
but it also is different? an audiobook is a performance. choices a narrator makes about line readings can drastically influence the meaning of the lines. even just different voices, accents, etc. - there are creative choices being made by the person delivering the words to you, and that affects your experience of the story in a different way than if you were making those choices in your own head. it might even change the way you visualize what's going on!
this isn't a bad thing it's just An Actual Thing & i think it's worth talking about. it rubs me the wrong way when people act like accommodations (and for many people audiobooks are an accommodation) always result in a completely identical experience, or even that they should, & if you suggest that people accessing media in different ways are having different experiences it's somehow ableist
anyway on rare occasions i really enjoy audiobooks but mostly they are much less accessible to me than words on a page (i need to be able to reread, flip back and forth, go at my own pace) & i also just really strongly prefer to encounter a text on my own before hearing someone else's performance of it, if possible! again i don't think it's "better" to read a physical book i just think it is a Distinct form of experiencing a story & acting like the two things are entirely the same is sort of doing a disservice to both
#rambling thoughts#audiobooks#was talking to jey about this the other day & that helped me clarify what i've been musing on#i really truly think people should read in whatever way they can. listening or using an e-reader or holding a physical book#i always always want to hold the book but i don't think i'm fucking superior for it lmao

Hot take, I really don’t think we should assign human morals onto animals and call them bad or evil. Fishblr has internalised this idea really well with sharks, and I think that’s good! Sharks don’t deserve all the fearmongering they suffer from in media. But… can we please remember to extend this to other animals too? Even to intelligent animals like dolphins (most commonly bottlenose dolphins) and orcas. It seems to be a counter to pop culture’s tendency to show dolphins as complete angels when they partake in some messed up things, but like…. Dolphins are still animals? They may be able to recognize themselves in mirrors and they may have language and culture and know how to use tools but their intelligence is still on the level of a human child (and how empathetic are those!!??). I see people talk about how evil dolphins are but I never see people talking about other animals the same way, like, why aren’t sea otters and their “evilness” the topic of discussion? :/
#i have seen people saying that its a joke or just a shorthand for saying that an animal is unpredictable.#but two things: is it r e a l l y a joke anymore?#and! if saying that an animal is evil is shorthand for the animal being dangerous or unpredictable; why not just say that!!??#when you call an animal evil it implies that the animal is aware of its actions as being malicious but it commits them anyway#this is rarely ever the case!#calling an animal dangerous or unpredictable better describes what the potential problem might be when you interact with said animal#anyway yeah you dont have to take my rambling to heart#fish#fishblr#biology#zoology#marine biology#shark#sharks#dolphin#dolphins are evil#dolphins

Oh I am having an EVENING. I just got back to school, spent the last 2 days amazingly productive and prepping for finals, and an hour ago I tested positive for COVID.
So then I had to email my students over the Learning Management App (which doesn't keep the formatting of the email site) that class is going be asynchronous tomorrow. At the end of the email, I tried to copy and paste my usual signature. I pasted and hit send too quickly for me to realize it did not copy.
This is an excerpt from the next chapter of the fanfic I am writing.

ulysses would honestly be the perfect candidate for anything enemies to lovers regarding the Courier if people weren't so focused on pretending the random one off Legion members are better written than they actually are
#like. he talks to you so sweetly when you make amends. he feels guilt for it. but people dont obsess over him like they do vulpes or w/e#hmmm i wonder why that is....he doesnt get treated as well by fans as the white character whos way worse of a person.....hmmmm...../sarcasm#seriously though. considering writing some ulysses/james stuff just bc of how overlooked he is#im so obsessed with him now lonesome road might actually now be my favorite dlc#vinny rambles#fallout new vegas#lonesome road#ulysses fnv#ulysses

ok but like
Vore in a protective , parent-like sense will always get me, it will always remain my favourite.
A pred giving a prey a comfort they lost, being their home temporarily.
The pred saying things like
"You're safe now"
"I will protect you"
"You're very brave, I'm proud of you"
For the pred to call their prey "little one" "small one", etc.
For the pred to hum a gentle lullaby to their scared prey
And for the prey to say things like
"Hide me"
"Protect me"
"I have no home/no body/nowhere to go"
The descriptions of a stomach as a cradle, the soft sobs a frightened prey lets out as they huddle into the soft flesh, they speak their fears and pain into the walls and the folds of the being around them.
And the walls listen to them.
To be cared for, to be loved, to be hidden where no one should see or harm you.
Idk man.
