how likely do you think it is that viserys ii is just a guy from lys?

because on the one hand, grrm may criticize fantasy tropes, but i doubt that he would pass the opportunity to have two of his most important characters be the descendants of aegon i and not targs. also, it would've be too much of a "plot twist" to not have in the main series.

on the other hand, in a thematic level, it would've very interesting. corlys says once and once again that history remembers names not blood. and it would've subvert every fantasy trope related to magic bloodlines. also the concept of targaryen "madness" being not a literal blood curse, but a selffullfilling phrophecy, like literal chills.

i really want to be an author but my parents want me to be a doc and they say I can be an author while doing med and idk but idk how to explain them I want to study literature and I want to know about the history and everything, I never was interested in being a doc but now I have no choice but I have to develop an interest it because that's my destiny so do u think I'm doing this right or am I doing it wrong? and can i really make money pursuing my degree in literature?

Hi! Let me start of by saying that I am not a college counsler or know anything about your situation or motive at all. Therefore, I can only go off of what I know. Firstly, I like your ambition and passion about literature and do believe that one degree is not better or worse than another. However, sadly our world does not treat all professions equally. In my experiancy any and all liberal arts degrees are risky, striktly financially speaking. They do however have more space for selffullfilment. But degrees like medicin which have a certain job directly conected usually take more time and energy and should therefore be at least a little bit of interest to you. It is true that you can write whilst also keeping another job and that maybe that is enough. I also understand the pressure one can experience because of parental expectations and I get that some people need to consider the opinion of their partens when choosing a career. The best I can do is tell you a few qustions you should ask yourself when deciding what to do. BUt by any means, I cannot tell you what to do. 1)How important is your families oppionion to you and how dependend are you? 2) is there a good compromise to be found? 3) what are you looking for in your future job? 4) would it be an option to write on the side and maybe later switch professions after school? I hope those help

Arthur´s rise is a self-fullfiling prophecy

Somewhere along the way, the message for Merlin turned from “Save Arthur so he can unite Albion and bring back magic” into “Save Arthur”. And this has been clearly pointed out in the show and is the reason for the unfortunate ending, but I ask myself: how long before Merlin turns evil?

I mean. If no one told him about Arthur coming back and immortality, he’d probably try his best. Help Gwen, help Camelot. Eventually, he’d find about the part where he can’t die, so he’d do more. Because he might not be able to protect Arthur but he can protect his legacy, his people. Once the grief became too much he’d probably go hide somewhere and stay there for centuries until Arthur would rise. Or he wouldn´t rise since the world would be kind of fine most of the time and Merlin would check on it every now and then (he can´t help it, he is still good somewhere deep inside, wants to help) to get it from the worst.

But he knows about immortality, knows that Arthur will rise again. When the Albion’s need is greatest. First, he helps. Because Arthur will return and he shouldn’t find his land in crumbles. First time Merlin hopes for Arthur’s return is when Gwen dies childless because succession wars are nasty. Yet Arthur stubbornly stays dead. So Merlin helps more, keeps whatever is left of Camelot safe, as best as he can, but Camelot can’t last (bonus points if it is destroyed because of slow progress. Guardian angels are great, but people must struggle to try to improve things and if Merlin is protecting them…Their neighbours probably get so much better it’s unsustainable). And Merlin thinks Arthur will rise when the rest of Camelot falls, but the whole Albion must be in trouble, so Arthur still sleeps. And Merlin slowly stops trying, because clearly, Arthur isn’t coming anytime soon. He goes into his private hermit hole and waits, the whole time thinking about prophecies, and what is going on with the world. Now the only question is…when does he realise it all? He only wants to protect Arthur, to have him back, but for this Albion needs to bee in total shit. Only then Arthur will be back. So he watches more carefully. Plague seems like a great time for the Once and future king to rise, but he doesn’t. Witch trials have great symbolism for it, yet Arthur stays dead. Clearly, the country won’t get into enough problems by itself. So he has to help it. When does Merlin go out of his hermit hole with the intention to destroy? To bring panic, destruction? Because if he only manages to ruin the world enough, his Arthur, his beloved Arthur will be back and everything will be all right, they will be together, ready to face anything, bring magic back. And he silences the little voice at the back of his mind telling him that Arthur wouldn´t want this because honestly, Arthur is dead, which doesn´t sound very healthy to me, and he should have been back by now. We have seen that for Arthur, he can kill armies. So I wanna know…when does he kill innocent?

Will Arthur come back because Merlin got out of hand and he is the only way to stop him? Probably. Does it happen because there was a legacy about it? Definitely.

Why I’m ( the artist SEAK Claus Winkler) painting this painting. - My aim was painting something good. Something new. - There was just the intention, based at a overwhelmed feeling. Although my intention was painting a lot with brushes which was outside my comfortzone when i started this painting. During the process,the intention painting with good colour combination, which trigger good energy where my focus. At no point I had aesthetics, how the paintings looks in mind. How it looks, is a sideeffect. At no point with in the paintings process, I knew how it would develop, or will look in my mind. While Im writing, it is still work in progress. It’s is so far, the painting with my most usage of brush. Most of the paintings, especial the works on paper from 2010 till today, although work in progess, I worked the oils/ acrylics with fingers, towel rests, markers. - Just judging from the last 4 months working exclusive with this painting i can say Iam a better man then before. Lost 14Kilos, doing 3 to 4 times a week, running, a day gym, lake swimming, eating small portions, having my ego in check, grown with challenges, being happy. The painting, the paintings process plays a vital role within this development. Influencing me, and my social circle, which influences me. - Interestingly enough I dont have a opinion, if i like the painting or not, from a aesthetic point of view/ perspective. Iam not judging the paintings Iam aiming for understanding the painting. - what you See in this picture/ photo, is the middle part of the letter ‚K‘. - This painting is a selffullfill organisation to install reflecting patterns with in the viewers absence of judgement, to create rational upwardly mobile spirals of happiness/ selfcontrol. Speaking from expierence it works when the viewer is living sportive. #SEAK #ClausWinkler #SEAKClausWinkler #artistoftheday #artprize #abstractpaintings #studioviews #abstractpainter #paintinglovers #showcase #studiotoday #artreviews #catalog #artdealers #petersburgerhanging #modernpainting #newartwork #newartworks #artworkinprogress #kunstgalerien #wip #inthestudio #modernartwork #largescaleart #artistjourney #artdiaries (hier: Dortmund-Ems Kanal Sperrtor Gelmer) https://www.instagram.com/p/CfD39WQoQ11/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Me: I see Hanzo, McCree and Mercy as being in a equal poly relationship, and dammit if I don’t want to invite someone to get all up in my business to imply it’s just “hurr durr, woman in the middle, selffullfillment” bullshit.

Also me: FFS why is it just easiest to draw Mercy, the shortest person, in the middle.

Talk about selffullfilling prophecy - there is a thunderstorm going on outside right now and I have never experienced thunder so heavy this house is actually shaking. I'd like that Sy comfort now please without pretending...

Last night I got startled awake by a booming thunder, it was so close that the windows rattled and the cars' alarm started in the parking lot. I got so scared 😭😭 I hate thunderstorms with passion, I always wish I had somebody in bed to cuddle with whenever they start. How do you think our captain would react to the reader getting scared?

Summary: A storm wakes you and Sy comforts you his way

Pairing: Captain Syverson x Reader

Word Count: approx 1k

Warnings: Fluffy, slight angst (fear of storms)

Authors note: I have had 3 requests now for Sy comforting you during a storm! The above is the oldest, I’m sorry it’s taken me so long to get to. Like my last drabble, this is a common trope, but this is my contribution to the trope. I hope you enjoy it.

Thanks as always to @amberangel112 for beta reading, your support has been amazing. Also, to my dear friend @henryobsessed for the edit, you are amazing!

Unseen Monsters

You wake with a start, sitting bolt upright in bed. The room brightens for a moment before you hear the sizzling crack of the lightening and the rumbling thunder that rolls across the sky. You hear the clouds open as rain pounds on the tin roof, as if it were the sounds of an invading army boots thumping against the ground.

Trembling, you force yourself to lay back down. Lightening splits the sky again as thunder booms like a canon and you roll over into Sy, quivering in fear. You’re embarrassed, this was one of the first nights you had ever spent together after a few months of dating and here you were, cowering like a child. You covered your ears, the rain getting louder as the wind picked up, and hid your face in Sy’s chest.

After another round of thunder that seems to go for a full minute, Sy stirs. He groans, attempting to roll over, but feeling you against him, he hums, seemingly happy and wraps his arms around you. As soon as he does, he notices you shaking.

“Hey,” Sy says, his voice deep and hoarse from sleeping. “You ok?” You look up at him, your eyes wide and you know how you must look to him. “Didja have a nightmare?”

You shook your head “No it’s the…” Another crack of lightning and crash of thunder rips through the room. You cringe, shrinking into Sy’s chest, burying your face in his fur as it tickles your nose.

“Don’t like storms huh, Sugar?” He asks. You think you can hear amusement in his voice, and you feel humiliated. But then you feel him stroke your head. “’S alright,” he murmurs, and you realise he’s only trying to calm you down, which only makes you want to hide more.

“No. They freak me out,” you say into his chest.

Sy’s chest rumbles as he hums, thinking. You press your ear against him, listen to his strong steady heartbeat and hear his voice echo as he says, “Do you know why ya don’t like ‘em?”

“Not really.”

“Nothing happened when you were a kid or anything?”

“No,” you say. You feel silly, a grown adult cowering over something that’s perfectly natural and probably won’t hurt you and you don’t even know why you are scared. “Pretty stupid, huh?”

Sy hums again. He lifts your head off his chest and kisses your nose. He smiles at you, a gentle grin before guiding your head back to his chest. “Not all fears come from something,” he says. “Sometimes it’s the unknown that scares ya. Have you ever watched a thunderstorm?”

“No way!” you say, horrified. “Why would I want to do that?”

“Well Sugar, it’s like when you watch a horror movie and hear about the monster but don’t actually see it, it’s scarier than when you do, right?” You nod. “Same thing.”

Sy keeps stroking your hair and you think about what he says while you tremble in his arms. He was able to calm you quickly with his strong presence, his warmth, his thick, rope like arms keeping you held tight and his familiar, masculine smell.

Rolling over, Sy turns on the bedside light and says, “Put your robe on, Sugar. Come sit on the porch with me.” He starts to untangle himself from you and gets out of bed.

Grabbing his arm you protest, “No Sy. Just stay here with me.”

Sy squats down next to the bed, using his free hand to caress your cheek. “Nothin’ will hurt you while I’m with you, ok? Do it for me, Sugar.”

Thunder booms again and you yelp. “It’s so loud though, Sy.”

Drawing his brows together and sucking his bottom lip in his mouth, you see Sy thinking. Suddenly he smiles, “Wait here.” He goes to his closet and pulls out the earmuffs he wears when he goes to the shooting range. He puts them on you, and you see him mouth, “Better?”

You sigh and say, “You’re not going to let me say no, are you?”

Sy grins and shook his head, beckoning you with his fingers. He passes you your robe and slippers and once you’re dressed, he takes your hand, and grabbing the blanket off the couch as you pass, leads you outside. He sits on the large wicker chair and pulls you onto his lap, cradling you like a child. You feel silly again, weak, until Sy lifts the muff away from your ear slightly and says, “Ya know, I don’t like snakes.”

“Really?”

Sy gives you a squeeze and says, “Yeah, I shake nearly as bad as you do. Goddamn things make my skin crawl, the way they slither around.” He exaggeratedly shudders for effect. “I’m better than I was, but I still can’t touch ‘em.”

“Maybe I should start calling you Indiana Jones,” you joke.

“It’s Doctor Jones, to you,” he replies smirking. Another crash makes you jump, and Sy kisses your forehead. “Have a look Sugar. It’s real pretty.”

The sky, though early morning but not yet sunrise, was streaked with red, probably lit up from the city lights. When the lightning hit and you see how much power it has and how the world lit up, for a moment your breath is taken away. After a few moments the thunder crashed, but even with the ear protection you can tell it was moving away.

You feel Sy’s beard on your skin, his lips pressing a kiss into your cheek. “You’re doing so well, Sugar,” he whispers in your ear, lifting and replacing the muffs. You snuggle into him, he pulls the blanket up high over your shoulders and tucks your head under his chin. Sy starts to sway, and you feel gentle vibrations in his chest. You think he’s humming a tune.

As the storm rolls away and the steady rain falls, your eyes struggle to stay open. The next thing you remember is being lifted, Sy’s arm around your back and under your knees. You realise the earmuffs are gone as you mutter to Sy that you can walk.

“Hush, Sugar,” he says. “I gotcha. Go back to sleep.”

Just saw Jett rebel on tv again and he’s like 4 years clean now? Shows how rock n roll stars can still make absolute bangers AND not lose themselves to drugs. It’s this big stigma that they all use drugs which might become a selffullfilling prophecy in some cases, but I’m so happy he’s talking about it and being open about his journey! And above that his music is fucking fantastic so if you don’t know him give him a listen xoxo

[kanohivolitakk]

You both add some really good points and I agree with what you are saying more or less, or at the very least can see where you are coming from.

I’d like to add that I really like the idea that like destiny is kinda malleable. In the sense that they do have free will that they can make make choices and have thoughts, but their end will be tje same regardless. The destination will always be the same , its the circumstances of how to get there vary and dont need to be the same ad they are in the canon. Like say, the Toa matas destiny is to awake the great spirit, but the circumstanxes and methods to that can vary and dont have to be the same. Or like toa metrus destiny was to guide the matoran to safety but it didnt necessarily mean from the cataclysm.

There are a few loose ends with Bionicles idea of Destiny. First off, does it apply to all MU inhabitants or only the toa? Since like, it is mostly talked about when it comes to Toa. But I do remember some other characters having destiny (Teridax mainly)

Also one thing I wonder is the nature of alternate universes. If everything is pre-determined how are those possible? The only way I can think of is that these timelines are what happens if the individual doesnt complete their destiny (like what happened w Matoro) or completes it under different circumstances (this is actually my hc to what happened to Toa Empire Nidhiki. His end in that timeline was similar to canon, but under very different circumstances and context)

Also perhaps rhe concept of destiny isnt literal but moteso a selffullfilling prophecy type of one. Then again not every character knew what their destiny was so ghis idea may fsll flat to its face.

But yeah destiny in Bionicle is something Im mixed on. I like it as a concept and some of my heafcanons are heavily sjaped by it, but some of it doesnt make sense and it csn be a bit too depressing to think about.

Thinking about how fucked up the idea of Destiny in Bionicle is.

Like several of the characters were destined to just...die. In order for the universe to function and others doing their part they had to freaking die.

Like, the Cordiak had to die so Lesovikk would survive and become a viligante. The toa Mangai had to die (or go rogue and get imprisoned in another dimension/turn into insectoid monsters) so the toa Metru could fullfill their destiny of saving the Metru Nui matoran. Matoro had to die so Mata Nui could live.

Its all just so messed up. To think your life is so insignificant in the grand scheme of things, that your whole purpose in the world i just to die. It truly sells that these characters we know and love are literally just cogs in machine, cells in an organism. They fulfill their purpose and then are discarded.

Its sad, really.
