#russians in dallas

[alaskan-wallflower]

it’s kinda funny because in russian, brother is брат (brat) and i can kinda see dally seeing darry call him brothers brats and he doesn’t get why it’s an insult because with english being his second language he doesn’t quite understand all the time so he’s just like “why is that an insult you’re just saying what they are”

idk russian dally is really interesting to me

[socgf]

as a belarusian i can say dally is so slavic coded like something about him exudes it both in his description/appearance and just his general personality

in my head he’s russian from his dads side and hearing arguments in the house he learned the craziest combos of curse words from him growing up. and they stuck with him so he just mumbles it under his breath at any inconvenience. everyone’s like “idk wtf dally is saying but it sounds scary” especially with that deep ass voice. this is canon to meee

I understand younger teens writing PB smut because they’re teens and the same age as him so inappropriate fanfic is bound to happen- main thing is to just not interact with it in that case since that’s just kids figuring things out. But once you age out of that bracket it is weird to keep doing it because Ponyboy’s permanently stuck at 14(TO) - 15(TWTTIN).

For realsies 😋 people try and age him up to justify it however imo it’s still weird. Maybe Im a snowflake idk

The other day I saw a post where someone said imagine if Dally was Russian and would cuss in Russian all the time.. I can't find it anymore but you who came up with it, if you see this..

I am watching Stranger Things s3 now where people talk Russian all the time and remembered that post and now I can't stop thinking about it.

Listen!

A lot of people headcanon Dally as Russian. I am entirely onboard with this so here is a headcanon: Dally and Melinda translate for Dasha

guys. guys. don’t cry over a man who’s friends make 9/11, holocaust, and rape jokes, cry over Laika and Fećliette, they will be so happy and appreciate that you made art about them and sang for them, and they will cherish that YOU care about them

[An interview of the St. Louis Blues players. The question is, "Who is the most famous person in your phone's contacts?"

Dmitri: Torpo

Torpo: I have three. First one: Vladimir Tarasenko. Second one: Ivan Barbashev. And third one: Pavel Buchnevich.

Media Admin, off-camera: Would they answer if you called?

Torpo: Hundred percent, any time of the day!

Buch, walking in from behind the divider: No, he is liar, I don't answer today!

dally swears in russian a lot and no one understands him, but mrs curtis could always tell it was a swear from the way he would say it and would just have her hands on her hips and raise her brow with that damned Mom Look and be all “dallas what did we say about saying that” and he just sulks

The Wall's Monochromatic Girl Gang. I was going to make a joke about what, exactly, they're talking about, but... I shan't.

A few notes:

• Isn't if fun how they're dressed for the same weather? Melisandre's outfit is inspired in this one Hanfu I keep seeing on Pinterest, though I don't know which dynasty it's inspired by. Song? Anyway Asshai is further east from Yi Ti, so chinese inspiration makes sense for me. (In terms of historical accuracy, we would be wearing Ming Dynasty inspired clothes, which is what I imagine for northern Yi Ti tbh). Beware the Arcane Asshai'i magicks of the Ye Olde Push Up Bra.

• I've been bouncing back and forth with Inuit-inspired or Siberian-inspired clothes for the Free-folk. Siberian/Eastern Russian clothes makes more sense in terms of the Slavic-inspired North continuity, but I guess I seeing too much of these giant baby-carrying Inuit hoodies and thought they looked fun. Val uses it to carry Gilly's baby on. occasion. It was originally meant to be a gift for Dalla.

• Val is actually pretty tall, Melisandre is just like. A giant. Originally Val was blushing (because of the cold) but that got weirdly romantic and I cannot handle shipping Mel with anyone other than Selyse, so yeah. Also afaik we don't have any indication that Val is a spearwife, but I wanted her to hold something, so she can at least carry a spear around. Is a free folk spear supposed to be this size? This question will haunt me for eternity.

In 1959, he was discharged from active duty into the Marine Corps Reserve, then flew to Europe and defected to the Soviet Union. He lived in Minsk, Belarusian Soviet Socialist Republic, married a Russian woman named Marina, and had a daughter. In June 1962, he returned to the United States with his wife, and eventually settled in Dallas, Texas, where their second daughter was born.

Oswald shot and killed Kennedy on November 22, 1963 (at age 24)

Over the course of four years, from age 20 to 24, he defected to the ussr, got married, had a daughter, moved back to the US, had another daughter, and killed the president. I may have squandered my youth. I haven't even killed a senator

spreading my russian dallas winston agenda so here’s my rendition of his backstory

- he was born and raised in russia until his mom died and his dad moved them to new york. dallas was 10 when his mom died. his hair was bright white and had icy blue eyes. he was also the palest mf you’ve ever seen

- he spent his preteen and early teenage years running the streets of new york and that’s where he learned english

- his russian accent was so strong people had no clue what he was trying to say ever

- his new york accent came from kids bullying him for his russian accent so he adopted the new york one

- his dad started drinking heavily when they moved to new york and started abusing dallas and blaming him for his mother’s death

- when dallas was 15, he ran away from home. his dad had beat him (again) and he decided that was the last straw.

- all he had on him was his switchblade, clothes, st christopher, a picture of him and his mom, 2 packs of cigarettes, a lighter, and about 10 bucks he managed to nab from his dad

- he moved around a lot, hopping freight trains until he finally landed in tulsa

- he spent his first 2 night in tulsa in jail after robbing a gas station and then spitting on the cops who arrested him

- he really only speaks russian when he’s like really pissed so when he got arrested, the officers thought he was cursing them like a wizard

- once he got out of jail, he walked for about 5 miles looking for some booze and that’s where he stumbled on buck’s place

- he haggled buck into letting him get a few drinks and a room in exchange for him sweeping the floor at the end of the night and putting all the chairs up

- the deal lasted longer than either of them anticipated and that’s how dallas ended up at bucks

I see a lot of people headcanoning Dally to be Russian, and I really like this because Dasha's also Russian so Dally and Melinda might be able to help translate back and forth for her so she can communicate.

No, Dasha does not use this to her advantage because she just doesn't like talking.
