Epilogue
It wasn’t easy.
But, then, when had anything in your life ever really been easy?
In the weeks that followed, you struggled to adapt to your new reality, your body waking you at daybreak and having you exhausted by nightfall, suffering with pangs of hunger that seemed almost unquenchable. Both Frank and Billy told you it would get better, that you would adjust, but that didn’t stop the occasional breakdown, the moments where everything felt like it was too much.
You watched as Billy’s heart broke over and over again, when he’d find you on the floor in your kitchen, sobbing and eating oreos, or walking around the penthouse in the middle of the day so exhausted that you could barely function.
On the bad days, he would take you into his rooms, close the curtains and hold you in pitch blackness, softly shushing you as you sobbed in his arms, whispering gentle apologies in your ear.
Feeding wasn’t any easier; you still gagged and felt sick sometimes, and certain kinds of blood didn’t seem to agree with you.
Finally you understood why Billy had made you follow such strict rules when it came to your health and diet as sometimes, some blood left you feeling ill like you’d eaten something that had gone off. And, as your senses became more acute, it only seemed to get worse.
But, eventually, a solution was found to every problem; Billy stayed with you for weeks, helping you adjust to your new day/night cycle, and special blood was ordered for you once he figured out exactly what you needed. And, once those issues were sorted, your breakdowns became fewer until you finally felt like you could handle your new life.
After that, the only issue left was Billy and your relationship. 
You loved him, and you knew that he loved you, but you needed time. Everything between you had happened so quickly and it felt like you’d missed out on so many steps. When you finally felt up to it, Billy started to take you out on dates; to dinner, to museum exhibitions, and even to the cinema. Little things, little steps that allowed you to grow closer as a couple. And, at the end of every night, he left you to decide if you wanted to sleep in his bed or your own.
The physical side of your relationship didn’t change or slow; Billy couldn’t seem to keep his hands off of you and you didn’t want him to. Being a vampire made everything feel heightened and you soon got why Billy craved moments of touch and intimacy. But, as far as your relationship went, you took things slowly.
And, after a few months, you were finally able to do what you’d told him you wanted to do. You found a job.
It was only a few nights a week at a local library and, for the first couple of weeks, Billy had insisted on walking you there and back, but he soon had to focus on his own work and you were able to gain the sense of freedom that you sought, both physically and financially.
Billy laughed every time you tried to pay for something or split a check, telling you to spend your money on yourself, on things that you wanted, things that would make you happy. At first, it annoyed you but, as you got closer, and you became privy to things like his finances, you realised just how wealthy he was.
But you didn’t let that deter you. You’d taken a job because you wanted to be able to contribute and that’s exactly what you started doing.
It was a cactus first. A tiny plant that you hoped would grow much bigger. You’d read that, in the right environment and with proper care, some cacti could live hundreds of years and that was what you wanted; something that would stay with you over the decades.
When you’d first brought the tiny little thing into the penthouse, Billy had frowned, then laughed, before getting a little table from the library for it to sit on and placing it by the window.
Over the weeks that followed, you got more plants, more things that made the penthouse feel like a home; cushions, lamps, artwork for the wall. You even insisted on hanging some fairy lights around that, when turned on, gave the place a magical and romantic glow.
And Billy went along with it, never complaining, always helping you, whether it was putting up more shelves for plants, hanging lights, or moving furniture to make space.
Karen gushed over the new furnishings, commenting on how Billy’s bachelor pad now looked like a real home, and your heart melted when he responded that it was a home now that you were in it.
And, every now and then, Billy would turn up with a new stuffed animal for you, until you had a small menagerie of stuffies, each with names more ridiculous than the last, all some loose version of Billy - though he threatened to stop when you announced that one of them was to be called Billiam.
After five months had passed, you’d fallen into a rhythm with Billy and, for the first time in your life, everything felt perfect. You were happy, you were in love. All the self-doubt and uncertainty that you’d carried when you first arrived at the penthouse was gone. And, no matter how much time passed, Billy seemed intent on constantly surprising you and doing everything he could to keep showing you that he loved you.
The moment Karen offered to pick you up after work on your birthday, you knew something was going on, you knew she’d been roped into one of his schemes. But nothing could have prepared you for the surprise party that was waiting for you when the elevator doors slid open and you stepped into the penthouse. 
Everybody yelled ‘surprise’ as they jumped from their hiding spots, but the moment your eyes found him, it felt like there was no one else in the room.
He stepped towards you and took your hand in his before kissing you softly.
“Happy birthday, hummingbird,” he said with a smile that always made you feel loved and safe in equal measure.
“Did you do all of this on your own?” You asked, finally letting your gaze drift about the penthouse.
“I had a little bit of help from Karen,” he admitted. “But I do have something else for you, something special that I want you to have before the party really starts.”
You looked at him, searching his face for some idea of what it could be, your mind racing back to the first party you’d attended in the penthouse. But on his face you found something you didn’t expect, an uncertainty, a nervousness, as if he wasn’t sure how you were going to react to his surprise.
“What is it?” You asked.
“I think it’s easier just to show you,” he explained.
Billy didn’t wait for a response before slowly starting to lead you towards the library. Whatever it was, your friends seemed clued in; you caught a reassuring smile from Karen and a nod from Frank. Even Foggy managed to look silently supportive of whatever you were about to face.
As the library door opened, a figure stood up from the sofa.
You froze in the doorway, a thousand different emotions going to war inside you.
“Irene,” your sister's name fell from your lips as little more than a whisper, too quiet for any but Billy to hear it.
She offered an apologetic smile but seemed just as lost for words as you were. Billy’s hand gave yours a reassuring squeeze, letting you know that he was still there and that he’d support you if you needed him to.
Finally she took a step forward.
“You’re all grown up,” she remarked softly and all you could do was nod.
You hand gripped Billy’s even as you managed to take a step, still not sure how you wanted to feel or what you could possibly say to her after so many years apart.
“Billy found me,” she tried to explain, “he told me about what happened and how you ended up here.”
Your eyes flickered to Billy and he saw just how lost you were.
“Madani tracked her down,” he said softly. “I didn’t want to say anything to you until I knew that Irene wanted to see you. I didn’t want to get your hopes up in case she decided that she didn’t want to see you.”
It made sense and you certainly weren’t upset about it, but you still struggled to deal with the situation.
“You left me,” you finally said, voice breaking as you turned your attention back to Irene. “You said you’d come back for me.”
“I -” she started before hesitating, “- I tried. Just before your eighteenth birthday. I came to get you, but dad caught me. He told me that if I ever left with you, he’d make sure I was arrested for kidnapping and I -”
She fell silent again and you watched as she tried to blink back tears. In the silence, you found yourself leaning into Billy’s side.
“I’d just found out I was pregnant,” Irene continued. “I have children now. Three of them. I wanted to take you away with me, but I...”
You watched her wipe a tear from her cheek and your heart ached for her, finally starting to understand what had happened and why she hadn’t come back for you. She had to choose between you and her unborn child, and you couldn’t fault her for putting the baby first.
Nodding, you struggled to find the words. It was overwhelming and, while you didn’t blame Irene or Billy for the situation, you wished that you’d had some warning, some time to prepare all the things you wanted to say to her. Although you’d played this moment over and over in your head since the day she’d left home, you’d never really been able to settle on what you’d say or how you’d feel.
You gave Billy’s hand one last squeeze before letting it go and moving towards Irene. 
“I’ll give you some privacy,” he said softly, waiting just a moment to make sure you didn’t need him to stay, before leaving the library and closing the door behind him.
“He seems really nice,” Irene offered, smiling at you.
“He is,” you answered. “He saved my life.”
“Can you tell me about it?” She asked cautiously. “I want to hear about your life, about everything I’ve missed out on.”
You took a seat on the sofa and waited for her to join you, your mind still racing, wondering how you could ever explain the last eleven months of your life to someone who wasn’t there to see it.
“Well, it started when I saw a job advertisement online, just over a year ago...”
Irene sat, mostly quiet, listening as you explained how you needed to leave home in order to escape a forced marriage, just like she had. You told her about coming to New York and how you and Billy had slowly bonded over your shared love of literature, and how it had culminated in you falling in love. Then, with a little less certainty, you told her how you were turned and how your life had been going since that moment.
At some point she’d taken hold of your hand and held it between her own on her lap, her eyes never leaving your face, completely caught up in your story.
“I’m so sorry I wasn’t here for you,” she told you at the end.
“It’s okay... I wasn’t on my own.”
You could see that now; Billy, Karen, even Frank, and Matt and Foggy. You had people in your life, people who cared about you. People who looked out for you. (People who would kill for you.)
She looked at her watch and a sadness filled her expression.
“I should let you get back to your party. Tom - my husband - and the kids are at the hotel,” she explained and you visibly brightened.
“You’re staying in the city?”
“Yeah, for a few days. I’d like you to meet my family. If - I mean, if that’s something you’d want to do, I know -”
“You want them to meet me, even though I’m a vampire now?”
“Of course,” she answered without hesitation. “You’re my little sister and I want you back in my life.”
“I’d love to meet them,” you told her, finally finding the strength to throw your arms around your sister’s shoulders and hug her tight.
Her arms wrapped around you and, for a few bittersweet minutes, you stayed like that, both of you trying desperately not to cry. After a few false starts, she managed to pull away from you and you both got to your feet. You walked her out of the library and towards the elevator, making plans to meet the next night so you could finally meet your niece and nephews.
No sooner had the doors slid shut, Billy was at your side, his arms wrapping around you as you pressed your face against his chest. You clung to him, feeling overwhelmed again, feeling so full of emotion that you might burst. His hand stroked your hair and he kissed the top of your head, muttering how much he loved you, holding you until you were ready to enjoy your party.
And you did enjoy it.
The night was spent laughing with your friends with Billy always close to your side, barely able to keep his hands off you for more than a few short minutes at a time. You talked about work and made plans for the future, and Karen managed to ruin one of your birthday surprises by telling you about a two-week polar night cruise around Alaska that Billy and Frank had booked so you could have a couples vacation that was vampire friendly.
Billy was a little upset that his surprise was ruined prematurely, but he seemed to forget all about it when you pulled him close and kissed him deeply, something that you didn’t usually like to do in front of other people.
You drank, ate cake, and laughed the night away, until it was time for your friends to start leaving.
While Billy lingered by the elevator, talking to Frank, you waved farewell to Karen and decided to go get ready for bed, stopping off at your room to pick up a little present you’d been holding onto for Billy that you finally wanted to give him. Then, you made your way to his bedroom. 
You quickly washed and changed into a sheer, powder blue negligee, and sat yourself on the edge of his bed next to his gift, waiting for him. It wasn’t long before he joined you, stepping into the room and pausing at the sight of you, making no attempt to hide the way his eyes took in every inch of your body.
Getting to your feet, you twirled, deciding to really give him an eyeful. Billy laughed and, before you knew it, you were laughing too.
“Not that I’m complaining, but what’s all this for?” He asked.
“I want to sleep in here with you, and -” you hesitated a moment as you turned and picked up the carefully wrapped gift and offered it to him, “- I wanted to give you a present.”
“You got me a present?” He looked down at the present in his hands, confused but still smiling. “But it’s your birthday.”
“I know, but it’s for both of us... kind of...” you said, a sudden feeling of nervousness causing a tremor in your voice.
Slowly, carefully, Billy tore open the wrapping and was left more confused than ever by what he found.
“It’s bed linen,” you explained.
“I can see that,” he answered, a hint of uncertain laughter in his tone as he looked at it.
You’d chosen a striking pattern of dark blues and petrol green, dark but still colourful, but it quickly became apparent that it wasn’t the bed linen itself that he didn’t understand, it was the gesture and what it meant.
You took a slow breath and started to explain; “it’s just... well, it’s really dark in here, and if I’m going to start staying in here, I thought we could make it a little brighter, and -”
“You want to stay in my room?” He asked, clearly trying to fight back a smile just in case he was jumping to the wrong conclusion. “You want to move into my room permanently?”
In the time it took you to nod, Billy had dropped the bed linen and cleared the distance between you, his hands framing your face and tilting it up so his lips could find yours. He kissed you with an eager desire that told you all you needed to know; he was happy, he wanted you to move into his room.
“I love you,” he muttered against your lips. “I love you so much.”
“I love you too,” you answered back.
As he kissed you again, your fingers started to tug at his shirt, untucking it from his pants before clumsily pulling open the buttons, so you could touch his bare skin. While you dealt with his shirt, Billy quickly undid and lowered his pants, leading you backwards towards the bed as he stepped out of them.
He kissed you in a way that left you feeling bereft, like you didn’t think he’d ever be able to match the passion and love that he was showing you then, that no moment would ever feel as good as that one did. But it was a silly thought, one you knew was wrong. There was no limit to the depths of his love. And there was none to yours either, not when it came to Billy.
His shirt slipped from his shoulders, joining his pants on the ground just a split-second before you were lifted off your feet and deposited on the bed beneath him. Already, you could feel the hard press of his erection between your thighs, and it was enough to have you moaning against his lips.
For a few wonderful minutes, he was content to stay like that, his body pressed down on top of yours while you kissed. You loved moments like that, moments where there was no frantic rush, moments where it felt like you had all the time in the world to just love and enjoy each other.
Finally, he pulled away from your lips and lifted himself, letting his eyes drift down your body, taking in the sight of you all over again.
“You’re beautiful,” he told you softly, just enjoying the moment of stillness before letting his hand trail over the sheer fabric of your negligee. “And I love this.”
“I thought you might,” you smiled up at him, content to let him take his time.
His hand began to trace the curves of your body through the gossamer fabric, making a point of running his fingers over the ticklish spot on your side that he’d discovered that first night you’d spent together in front of the TV. A smile spread across his lips as you squirmed and giggled beneath him.
“I love you,” he said again.
There was something so serious in his voice, something that had you reaching up to cup his cheek, wanting to settle any terrible thoughts or doubts that might be in his head.
“I know you do, Billy,” you reassured him softly. “And I love you. With all my heart.”
His smile grew wider and whatever had taken hold of him seemed to let go. And, finally, he started to move down your body.
Soft hands slipped up your thighs, fingers hooking the little panties that you wore beneath the negligee and quickly relieving you of them. And, still, despite all the months that you’d spent with him, he always managed to look at you like it was his first time really seeing you. Once your panties were gone, he slowly moved down the bed, settling himself between your thighs, slowly trailing kisses from your knee up your leg.
Even though you were more than used to his lips between your thighs and the way his tongue could make you feel, you still gasped at the first touch, each and every time. In your time together, he’d learned every inch of you and how to make your body shake with pleasure.
Your fingers slipped into his hair and tugged lightly as his tongue slid between your folds. He groaned against you, tasting your arousal before focusing his attention on your clit, circling the throbbing bundle. Unrestrained moans started to fall from your lips and, soon enough, you felt his fingers breach your walls, slowly thrusting into the heat of your body while he undid you with his tongue.
His name fell from your lips over and over as you felt yourself climb higher and higher, your fingers curling tighter in his hair.
You looked down at him, waiting for his permission as pleasure coiled tight inside you and, finally, he gave you the slightest of nods. It was all you needed. You came hard as his fingers and tongue continued to work in concert with each other, trying to prolong your ecstasy until it was too much to bear and your thighs started to tremble violently.
Finally he pulled back, wiping his lips and watching you as your head fell back on the pillow.
“Mmmm,” you hummed, breathless but smiling. “Best birthday present ever.”
“Oh, hummingbird, I’m just getting started,” he muttered.
You didn’t move until prompted, sitting up for him so he could finally remove your negligee, then dropping back to the pillow while he got rid of his boxers. And you watched him, you watched every little move that he made, taking in the sight of him just as he had with you only ten minutes before.
It brought a smile to your face to think how obsessed you still were with each other.
Soon, he was positioned between your thighs again, teasing you, running the leaking tip of his cock between your folds, trailing it up and down from your entrance to your clit until you were needily squirming beneath him.
“Billy, please...”
“What do you need, hummingbird?” He asked, as if he didn’t already know.
“You, Billy,” you whined. “I need you.”
And that was all he needed to hear.
Your head fell back and you let out a long moan as his cock notched into you and started to fill you. His pace was torturously slow and he watched every little flicker of pleasure that crossed your features. You loved these moments when he’d take his time, when he’d make love to you and show you how much you meant to him.
Linking your hands behind his neck, you pulled him down and into an eager kiss. More little moans slipped from your lips and into his as he started to move in slow, deep thrusts that sent bolts of pleasure up and down your spine. You back arched, heels digging into the mattress, lifting your hips to meet his every movement.
When the kiss broke, your lungs felt like they were burning. But there was no time to think about that, no time to think about anything but the way Billy was making you feel. His lips moved to your neck, kissing and sucking at your skin, while one of his hands played with your breast. He was everywhere and everything to you, and when you were together like this, you felt like two pieces of a whole.
He made you feel like the characters from all the books you’d read; you felt like Jane Eyre finally happy and free with her Mr Rochester (just minus the burnt down home).
He made you happier than you’d ever dared to believe you could be.
“Billy,” you moaned softly into his ear with reverence. 
“Come for me, little hummingbird,” he muttered in response.
On command, you fell apart for him, clinging to him as your body shivered and shook with pleasure.
“Billy, I love you,” you managed between your moans.
Billy gasped, suddenly overcome by his own orgasm. The movements of his hips turned sloppy as you felt him empty himself inside you, trembling almost as much as you were.
“I love you,” you said again, finding his lips and kissing him, wrapping your arms around him and holding him tight.
When he stilled, he lingered, not wanting to pull out or pull away from you but, eventually, he rolled away, ending up on his back beside you. You both basked in the afterglow as you slowly came down from your highs.
Turning on your side, you lifted yourself so your face was above his. His eyes closed and he let out a contented sigh as your fingers ran through his hair, lightly scratching your nails against his scalp just the way he liked. Then you leaned, pressing a soft kiss to the tip of his nose, then one of each of his closed eyes and then, finally, his lips.
“Thank you,” you whispered softly.
“What for?” He dared to ask.
“For loving me for who I am,” you tried to explain, “and for letting me have a life of my own.”
“I should be thanking you for exactly the same thing,” he told you, wrapping his arm around you and pulling you towards him, holding you against his chest.
Neither of you said another word that night. 
You didn’t need to. 
You had each other, and that was all you needed.
End Note : It's finally over 😭😭😭 Thank you so much for all the lovely comments and messages over the last week, it really means a lot that so many people have enjoyed this story. I hope the epilogue gives an added bit of closure on a couple of issues (I know some people were interested in the sister) though I have also left some things open because I would love to come back to this version of Billy some time in the future. (Honestly, I need a little break from gothic stuff because I made the mistake of rereading Flowers in the Attic the other day and it left me emotionally broken ���) There won't be any Billy fics from me next week, which feels so weird to me, but I realised that I've posted at least once a week, every week for the last 42 weeks so I think I'm due a week off. At the moment, I think I'll be starting the stalker!Billy fic on the 6th of September but, in the mean time I might also work on my omegaverse!Bucky fic. In the meantime, my ask box is always open if you have thoughts/feelings/questions/headcanons about anything I've written.
Anyway, thank you so much for reading and following week after week, and thank you so much to those of you who have liked/commented/reblogged! Hope you all have a great weekend!
Let me know if you'd like to be tagged in future chapters! If tagging doesn't work for some reason (aka Tumblr being dumb) I post most Fridays around 7:30 gmt.

So French politics is a total mess right now.
But we need a tiny bit of backstory to fully understand why.
In 1944, France took back its' territories from invading armies. The 4th Republic was declared when De Gaulle stepped down as commander-in-chief-in-exile.
The 4th Republic tried to be parliamentary, but also incentivised coalitions, which constantly broke down. So there were massive political instabilities which came to a head in the Algerian war of independence in 1958. French soldiers, living in Algeria, threatened to invade the mainland if the head of government didn't give up peace talks with the Algerian rebels. So De Gaulle, the man who brought freedom back to France and fended off American imperialism post-WWII, was called on to solve the crisis.
He decided to form a new semi-presidential republic, that wouldn't be bogged down by giving excessive power to the elected assembly.
The President is directly elected for 5 years, and so is the lower house (Assembly). To be eligible to be president, you must have the support of at least 500 mayors or regional councillors over the entire country. (Yes, that does mean that the French people are asked to vote at least 5 times every 5 years: mayoral, regional, legislative (lower house), presidential, and European). The upper house, the Senate, is voted in indirectly by all representatives (mayors, councillors, Assembly members).
Phew.
But also, the Assembly can overturn the Presidency by a simple majority vote. And the President can, at any time, dissolve the Assembly.
This means, that since the legislative and presidential elections are very close to each other, that the presidential party/coalition has always had a majority in the Assembly, except for a few occasions. (I think Mitterrand didn't have one)
It's a presidential republic because the President has strong executive power, and can pass executive bills without the Assembly's approval: so called Article 49§3. Article 49§3 is meant to break parliamentary deadlock on critical issues, like national budgets, by forcing the Assembly to take action. The Assembly can overturn the President and block the bill by simple majority of registered Assembly members, not just those who turn up to the vote. So it is a political gamble. Mr Macron has used this to bully his party in the past: "Vote for my controversial retirement pension reform or vote me out and lose your seat."
But also, Mr Macron is a scheming, conniving bastard. He used the rise of the far right to his political gain: in 2017, he presented himself as a centrist. He was young, smart, an economist, hot, and had a wife with intrigue (they met when she was his French teacher in high school). And he won out against the far right. His party was founded in 2015, so no-one knew what to do with him.
But then, over the years, we slowly realised that he was financially liberal, socially centrist, and morally bankrupt. He was accused of putting his friends in power and generally being money grubbing. But his international appeal was pretty good.
So then he won again in 2022: hoping that the left wouldn't form a coalition (they did), that he could hold down the centre parties (he couldn't), and the far right wouldn't become larger (it did). But he still managed to get a slim majority. Thus heavy use of 49§3 to align his party.
All in all, the left were/are furious. Twice now, they did the political good deed of voting for the candidate they didn't really like to block the one they hate from getting in. So tensions were high.
Now in 2024, the far right win big in the European Elections. They get a sizeable share of french votes (mostly from low turnout by other parties). Macron decides to dissolve the Assembly 2 (?) days later.
Huh?? Why?? What?? Tf do we do now??
So now we have a legislative election in a month that no one saw coming. Everyone scrambles. The left form a coalition in 2 weeks, their manifesto cobbled together by sleepless nights. The right, once composed of 2-3 parties, has split, the vast majority of the traditional right now have joined the far right. The centre is gutted, save for Macron's party, who's effectively subsumed their voter demographic.
The legislative elections have a 2 round system: everyone votes for who they actually want in round 1 and settles in round 2.
It's chaos.
After round one, the left have a 30% hold on the country, the centre have 20%, and the far right have 35%.
Everyone realises that the far right have a real chance at winning a majority. Le Pen pushes her electorate as hard as she can: she doesn't just want to be the biggest party and get to form the government, she wants a majority and overturn the President.
The left choose to pull out of places that they aren't going to win to avoid diluting the vote. Days before the 2nd round, Macron has said nothing similar. A few days before, his message is simple: "We're not going to do anything. We won't pull out of races we might not win." It's a kick in the teeth for the left.
The end of the second round looks like this:
Tumblr media
Purple is the left coalition, yellow is Macron, blue is traditional right, brown is far right.
With 182 seats, the left have the most, and should form the next government. Not by law, but by convention.
Macron has 168 seats, the far right have 143.
The majority is 289 seats. No one is close, but a coalition would work.
Unfortunately, that's a problem: since no government in the past 60 years has had to form a coalition, no one knows how, and aren't amenable to it in the first place.
But the left are ecstatic. They struggled so hard to unite, they defied all odds to challenge Macron, and now they have the institutional (but not legal) right to name a Prime Minister (head of the lower house).
This all happened before the Olympics. So Macron declares that there must be political unity during the Olympics. So everyone agrees and keeps quiet for a while.
Side note, Mr Macron has called himself the "God of Time" in private meetings, since he believes that he can dictate when things happen, putting off decisions and important meeting by leveraging the might of french bureaucracy at them. But that kind of tactic wears thin very quickly.
After the Olympics, and the fiasco that was, politics can start again. The left, after an awful lot of arguing and trial and error, name Lucie Castets as Prime Minister. She's smart, female, and merely socialist (as opposed to communist). The far right immediately oppose her, declaring that they would vote to overturn her as soon as she is sworn in. "Blah blah blah not strong not good too extreme".
So they try again. And again. Until Macron, who is the person who swears in the Prime Minister, invites potential candidates from different parties to his office. So now, somehow, Macron, who didn't win the majority of seats, is choosing the PM. He invites Hollande, Sarkozy, Mélenchon, Duflot, Cazeneuve, Bertrand, Castets to try and find a leader who might not be immediately overturned.
The left insist that any extreme right candidate will be overturned. The far right insist that any candidate with an inkling of leftism will be overturned. Macron's party stays quiet.
So we arrive at today: Michel Barnier is our new PM. He's right wing. He voted against decriminalising gays in the 80s.
His inauguration speech had catchphrases like: "Access to public services, security in daily life, and immigration control". He promises to establish a "German-style" cabinet, made up of ministers from all parties. But we'll see how that goes.
So...yeah...I love how the left got the most seats of all parties and is now completely out of government.
Macron _could_ have formed a left alliance and chosen to uphold french dignity. He _could_ have chosen an ex-centrist PM. He _could_ have chosen compromise, but instead bent the knee to the right because they're more vocal.
Maybe I'll update this as time goes by. Maybe I'll be too depressed to do so.

I’ve been running this blog for several years, with the goal of changing the minds of men towards a female-led society and to ingrain on the deepest level of their little brains, that women are superior beings that are to be worshipped. 
Just like the medieval knight who would risk his life to protect his queen and lay all traesures to her feet, just like the worker bee whose sole purpose is to build the queen-bee’s ‘palace’, to nourish and protect her, men should understand that their sole purpose is just the same: A men’s life is fulfilled if he can worship, pamper and protect women. For men, to work hard and earn money just to buy themselves expensive things is purely superficial. After the ‘kick’of buying something wears off, men are left with a feeling of emptyness and lack of purpose but often their simple male brains cannot comprehend the reason for this emptiness.
On the contrary, giving your time and money to support women, to improve their lifes, their living conditions, to give them safety and security, to be the ‘muse’ that allows a woman to flourish and follow her dreams…this selfless service brings real fulfillment to a man.
If you are a male who enjoyed my posts, if my captions molded your thoughts about women or if you even touched your worthless little appendage while reading them, make the next step, be a good little worker bee and fulfill your soul by supporting me to become a fully independent woman, by being the male muse that allows me to fully focus on my creative projects by working hard to contribute not to your own, but to *my* financial freedom.

This is not about ‘financial domination’ but about showing real support for female supremacy and real worship and dedication, not just a masturbation fantasy for male pigs.

In June of 1967, at the same time as Israel was starting to enact its military dictatorship over the West Bank and Gaza, the biggest athlete of his time and one of the most famous and recognizable icons of his era, Muhammad Ali, was sentenced to five years in prison for his refusal to join the US military and serve in the Vietnam war.
Two months earlier, on April 28th, his boxing license was suspended, and he was stripped of his heavyweight world champion title and arrested: 3 times his name was called at a Military Entrance Processing Station in Houston, and 3 times he would not step forward.
Before and after that day, he was active and speaking against the war to American students in universities, in rallies throughout the country, in press conferences, and interviews.
He never once buckled under pressure, and crafted some of the most memorable and popular quotes of the Vietnam era like "I ain't got no quarrel with them Vietcong", or
"Why should they ask me to put on a uniform and go 10,000 miles from home and drop bombs and bullets on Brown people in Vietnam while so-called Negro people in Louisville are treated like dogs and denied simple human rights? No I’m not going 10,000 miles from home to help murder and burn another poor nation simply to continue the domination of white slave masters of the darker people the world over. This is the day when such evils must come to an end. I have been warned that to take such a stand would cost me millions of dollars. But I have said it once and I will say it again. The real enemy of my people is here. I will not disgrace my religion, my people or myself by becoming a tool to enslave those who are fighting for their own justice, freedom and equality. If I thought the war was going to bring freedom and equality to 22 million of my people they wouldn’t have to draft me, I’d join tomorrow. I have nothing to lose by standing up for my beliefs. So I’ll go to jail, so what? We’ve been in jail for 400 years."
-
Choosing wisely, the American state did not destroy Ali. Ali came back to the ring after 3 years of forced absence, reclaimed his title, and, beating all the best heavyweights of the time, created an unmatched legacy in all of sports history.
-
Almost 60 years after that, it is impossible to even imagine, say, Lebron James or Stephen Curry talking with anything similar to that clarity and conviction about, say, a certain genocide and their country's support for it. It's inconceivable. They see themselves as nothing but earners and entertainers.
I often think about the timeless greatness of Ali, being not only the greatest boxing champion of all time but a great formidable political spirit as well. Ali who did not succumb to fear and pressure and risked his career, freedom, many millions of dollars, and even his life (in a country notorious for lone assassins) by consistently refusing to join a war the American public was still overwhelmingly for at the time.
And what do we have today? Complete craven silence. All the great athletes, rock stars, actors - deafening silence.
Not one of them has as much to lose as Ali did, at the height of a singular career in global sports. Not one of them risks jail time, fierce public hate, or financial ruin. Still, they find no courage to speak up.
They all count their dollars and likes in the dark, psychologically broken, and morbidly anxious stars of nothingness.
-
Nearly 6 decades after he willingly put everything on the line for his principles in a spectacular act of real-time political nonconformity, The Great One still shines as a huge beacon of light in a sea of rancid complicity. An inspiration and a role model like no other.
-
The absence of an Ali-like figure of our times tells a sad and uniquely poignant story about the triumph of capitalism and conformity over the human spirit in America in the post-Vietnam era; it also tells us how much of a giant Ali really was.

character essay: topaz from honkai star rail
strap your seat belt in, we're going for a ride.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
topaz is a debt collector.
now you may start thinking: did belobog commit a tax fraud? if so, how? i thought this was a very interesting thought process. because have you ever considered interplanar debt or financial settlements in sci-fi media? unless if they were sky pirates or very simple transactions of sale and purchase - it is often not explored and perhaps, most might even consider it not interesting.
for those who played the game and dedicated their time to the events, you'll find and agree that the influence of the interastral peace corporation (ipc) is wide - considering they hold a stake in an underused freight vehicle for the aurum alley business event. the ipc was also painted as calculating, for wanting to take back not only the freight vehicle, but any semblance of a bustling city. the ipc is a capitalist loaning body, driven by its "philanthropy", until it's time to reap the benefits."
when topaz walked into the story, that painting proves to have more details - more than just freight vehicles, the ipc could do more than just assistance in business, but repairing an entire planet.
Tumblr media
topaz's exterior personality leaves readers with quite literally no hint to who she is or where is she from, aside from her love for animals, but playing the story leaves you to find out that she came from a heavily polluted planet that the only choice left was to leave everything to the ipc. however, it was also because of this upbringing and story that topaz would prioritise survival, more than its people's freedom. after all, protection from natural disaster as well resource allocation for a planet's rebuilding is a tempting deal - especially for belobog, that had only recently been cleared from its stellaron crisis.
Tumblr media
not only that, belobog had also borrowed funds from the ipc prior to the planet's isolation from the rest of the world due to its extreme weather. the contract topaz offered to rebuild belobog and employ its citizens under the ipc would clear the arrears owed for over seven centuries.
despite the ipc's opportunistic nature as a body, topaz came to belobog and spoke to bronya with unmatched sincerity. topaz was a character that did not come from a privileged place, yet took the steps to dance alongside the work opportunity she was provided with. even if the contract offered by the ipc was tempting, even she was amazed by the thriving spirit of belobogians, looking toward a future with their intelligence and enduring the coldest blizzards. she could no longer compare the environment between jarilo-vi and her home planet.
Tumblr media
despite having objectively failed her mission, she was humble, and did not assert her task more than necessary. if this was what the people of belobog wanted, then she would not force it upon them.
which comes at the cost of her current position, and she was demoted by one rank. even so, she still found beauty on this planet.
Tumblr media
as a character, one would assume that her position meant she was always out for money, but she herself said that she was past working for the money, and thus did not mind the pay cut that came with her demotion. but more than that, she maintains a headstrong personality through it all - a marketing expert who knew how to use her story to resonate with potential clients, yet endearing for her love of animals.
she is also noted to be very capable and places the interest of the planet's ahead of work - the probability of success among her planet projects stood at 80%, higher than the ipc's average of 60%.
topaz is a multifaceted businesswoman: friendly with her network, assertive with her staff, a marketing expert and most of all, good-natured. as an experienced businesswoman, her story clashes at the differences in culture and ideals against bronya, a fresh-faced leader trusted by her subjects.

4. Financial Benefits :
Minimalist lifestyle can lead to financial freedom.By buying less we can save money and it allows us to invest in experiences rather than material possessions.
5. Emotional well-being :

6. Develop gratitude :
A minimalist lifestyle helps to develop gratitude . By focusing on what we truly need we can develop a sense of appreciation for the simple joys in life. This can lead to a more happy life.

Financial Self-Improvement: Empower Yourself with Smart Money Habits
Tumblr media
Step 1: Start With a Financial Assessment
Just like you would begin a fitness journey by assessing your current health, financial self-improvement starts with evaluating your financial situation. This means taking a good look at your income, expenses, debts, and savings. Ask yourself:
How much debt do I have, and what is my plan to pay it off?
Am I living within my means or relying on credit?
Do I have an emergency fund in place?
What are my long-term financial goals?
This honest assessment will give you a clear picture of where you are now and what you need to work on.
Step 2: Set Clear, Achievable Financial Goals
Without a destination, it's hard to make progress. Setting clear financial goals provides direction and motivation. Whether you want to pay off debt, save for a home, or invest in your future, defining these goals will guide your financial decisions.
Break down your goals into short-term (6 months to 1 year), medium-term (1 to 5 years), and long-term (5 years or more) objectives. For example, paying off high-interest debt might be a short-term goal, while investing for retirement could be a long-term objective.
Step 3: Budgeting—The Foundation of Financial Success
Budgeting is a key habit that separates financial success from financial stress. By creating and sticking to a budget, you ensure that your money is working for you, not the other way around. Start by listing all sources of income and tracking your expenses. Prioritize essentials, cut unnecessary spending, and allocate funds for savings and investments.
Budgeting also opens your eyes to "money leaks"—areas where you could be overspending without realizing it. Use budgeting apps or a simple spreadsheet to track your spending and hold yourself accountable.
Step 4: Build a Healthy Relationship with Money
A lot of financial self-improvement is about mindset. Cultivate a healthy relationship with money by understanding its true value. Money is a tool to provide security, freedom, and opportunity, not something to be feared or revered.
Focus on the psychology of money and work to break any negative patterns or habits, such as impulse buying or treating credit as an extension of your income. Mindful spending and saving will strengthen your financial resilience.
Step 5: Educate Yourself
The financial world is always evolving, and knowledge is power. Take time to educate yourself about personal finance, investing, and how money works. Whether you choose books, podcasts, blogs, or online courses, staying informed empowers you to make smarter decisions.
Step 6: Develop an Investment Strategy
Financial self-improvement isn’t just about saving; it’s also about growing your wealth through smart investing. Start by learning the basics of investing, including the power of compound interest, risk management, and diversification. Explore low-cost index funds, real estate, or even Bitcoin, depending on your risk tolerance and goals.
A common and effective strategy is Dollar-Cost Averaging (DCA)—investing a fixed amount of money at regular intervals, regardless of market conditions. This helps smooth out the impact of market volatility and builds wealth over time.
Step 7: Stay Consistent and Adapt
Consistency is the cornerstone of self-improvement. Whether it’s following a budget, investing regularly, or learning more about personal finance, progress takes time. Stay the course, and remember that financial improvement is a marathon, not a sprint.
At the same time, be flexible and willing to adapt. Life is unpredictable, and your financial strategy may need to change as your circumstances evolve. The key is to remain proactive and adjust your approach when necessary.
Conclusion: Financial Self-Improvement as a Lifelong Journey
Financial self-improvement is about more than just building wealth—it's about taking control of your life and creating a foundation for long-term success. By setting goals, developing smart money habits, and continually educating yourself, you can achieve the financial freedom that allows you to live life on your terms.

Financial Hacks and Insights Entry No. 6
How Chinkee Tan's Books and the Piso Planner Changed My Financial Life
Tumblr media
I still remember the day I stumbled upon Chinkee Tan's book, "Diary of a Pulubi," at the local bookstore. Little did I know, this would be the start of a journey toward financial freedom. As someone who had struggled with managing my finances for years as a student, I was skeptical about yet another self-help book. However, something about Chinkee Tan's straightforward and relatable style resonated with me.
Discovering Chinkee Tan's Wisdom
Chinkee Tan's books, like "Till Debt Do Us Part" and "Rich God Poor God," quickly became my go-to resources. His philosophy was simple: master the basics of personal finance, eliminate debt, and cultivate a mindset of abundance. What set his teachings apart was his ability to break down complex financial concepts into practical, actionable steps. For the first time, I felt like I had a clear path to follow.
One of the most impactful lessons I learned from Tan was the importance of financial literacy. He emphasized that understanding how money works is the first step towards financial independence. I started by setting up a budget using the guidelines from his books, tracking every peso that came in and went out. This simple act of budgeting was eye-opening. I realized how much money I was wasting on non-essentials, and I began to see opportunities to save and invest.
Embracing the Piso Planner
While Chinkee Tan's books laid the foundation, it was the Piso Planner that truly brought his teachings to life for me. The planner became my daily companion, a tool that helped me stay on track and motivated. With its goal-setting sections, budgeting worksheets, and financial trackers, the Piso Planner provided a structured approach to managing my finances.
Building a Financial Roadmap
With my debt under control, I turned my attention to building an emergency fund and saving for future investments. The Piso Planner's budgeting tools made it easy to allocate funds towards savings and track my progress. Each month, I reviewed my expenses, identified areas where I could cut back, and adjusted my budget accordingly. The planner's visual trackers allowed me to see my savings grow, which was a huge motivator.
One of the most powerful aspects of the Piso Planner was its holistic approach to financial planning. It wasn't just about budgeting and saving; it was about creating a financial roadmap that encompassed both short-term and long-term goals. I began to think about my financial future in a more strategic way, potential investments, and even unexpected expenses.
The Transformation
As I continued to apply Chinkee Tan's principles and use the Piso Planner diligently, my financial situation improved dramatically. But beyond the numbers, what truly changed was my mindset. I no longer felt overwhelmed by my finances; instead, I felt empowered and in control.
The stories of others who had found success with Tan's teachings and the Piso Planner were inspiring and reaffirming. Like them, I had grown my savings, and developed the confidence to make informed financial decisions.
Conclusion
Looking back, discovering Chinkee Tan's books and the Piso Planner was a turning point in my life. They provided the knowledge, tools, and motivation I needed to take charge of my financial future. If you're struggling with your finances or simply looking to improve your financial literacy, I highly recommend starting with Chinkee Tan's books and incorporating the Piso Planner into your daily routine. They have the power to transform your financial life, just as they did mine.
Take that first step today, and embark on your journey towards financial freedom with Chinkee Tan and the Piso Planner. You won't regret it.

The Fool
The Fool (0)
Upright Keywords
beginnings, freedom, innocence, originality, adventure, idealism, spontaneity, new beginnings, free spirit
Reversed Keywords
reckless, careless, distracted, naive, foolish, gullible, stale, dull, inconsideration, taken advantage of
Description of the card (image): The Fool shows us a young boy walking joyfully into the world. He is taking his first steps, and he is exuberant, joyful, excited. He carries nothing with him except a small sack, caring nothing for the possible dangers that lie in his path but he is soon to encounter the first of these possible dangers —if he takes just a step more, he will topple over the cliff that he is reaching. But this doesn't seem to concern him - we are unsure whether he is just naive or simply unaware. The dog at his heels barks at him in warning, and if he does not become more aware of his surroundings soon, he may never see all the adventures that he dreams of encountering.
Upright and Reversed meaning: 
Upright Fool: The Fool card is numbered 0, which is considered to be a number of infinite potential. Consider him a blank slate, his forthcoming journey will mold his character. He is the symbol of innocence.
To see The Fool generally means a beginning of a new journey, one where you will be filled with optimism and freedom from the usual constraints in life.
When we meet him, he approaches each day as an adventure, in an almost childish way. He believes that anything can happen in life and there are many opportunities that are lying out there, in the world, waiting to be explored and developed.
He leads a simple life, having no worries, and does not seem troubled by the fact that he cannot tell what he will encounter ahead. 
To meet him in a reading can also be seen as a call to the risk-taking part of your own character. He inspires courage —he understands that every day is a chance to open up new areas in your life, and with that comes a mixture of anticipation, wonder, awe and curiosity.
In Love: new relationships, fun light romance
In Career: new job, new business, breath of fresh air at work
In Finances: spontaneous spending, financial opportunities
Reversed Fool: 
When you land on the reversed Fool in your reading, you can generally find his more negative characteristics being on display. It can mean that you are literally acting like a fool by disregarding the repercussions of your actions. Like the youth depicted in the card, you don't see how dangerous of a position you find yourself in. 
A reversed Fool card can show that you are living in the moment and not planning for the future.
The reversed Fool meaning serves as caution that you should be more aware so as not to be taken advantage of.
This card is here to alert you on anything that may sound too good to be true.
In Love: lack of commitment, risky relationships
In Career: stale and boring job. careless actions at work
In Finances: caution around financial opportunities, foolish purchases
In yes or no questions the answer could be either, The Fool has this “all over the place” energy.

Your food always look so delicious...did you learn how to cook it all by yourself? Do you follow any recipes?
yayyy yippiee thank u! i tried to explain my cooking journey but it somehow became quite the rant to i put it under the cut! TLDR: started by following recipes, first simple ones then more complicated. after being able to confidently follow the steps, started experimenting with adding my own vision. right now can cook by myself/come up with new recipes :D
originally i did learn to cook by just following recipes :3c when i was a kid, both my parents would come home super late from work, so they taught me how to cook some simpler stuff that didn't involve too much steps (throw in a bunch of frozen vegetables and chicken breats with herbs in the oven and leave it there, that level). uknow so both me and them could have a dinner and all :]. i also would help out with sunday breakfasts, or preparing stuff for holiday, and eventually it helped me become more confident in trying out more complicated things
i started looking up recipes online and following those (to varied results at first... cooking, as any other skill, comes with practice after all). funnily enough, i also got really into anime at around the same time, and it was before it became "mainstream" here, so if i wanted to try any of the oh so tasty looking gorgeous drawn foods i kept seeing, i had to make them myself o7 special shoutout to dorayaki here btw. so important to me as a person you have no idea.
by the late middle school/early high school point of my life i was around the level where if i was left alone for a while i'd have no problem feeding myself and even being a bit fancy about it if i was in the mood
due to other curcuimstances, i had started living alone in 2022, and the whole situation around it was honestly very stressful and, looking back at it, i was in a bad place mentally, so i started cooking and baking a Lot More to somewhat cope/as a stress-relief. Given that I had a lot of freedom (literal, as i was the only person in the appartment so the kitchen was all mine; financial, since i was sent a set amount of money i could spend however i want as long as i stayed within budget and survived; and living alone generally meant i could do whatever with no regard for others), i started experimenting like crazy. i would try new ingredients, new methods, i didn't really have to think of nutritional value or making reasonable diet choices or whatever. which wasn't as good for my physical health at times, but definitely helped me improve a lot and kept me sane. i was told not long my parents would track my mental state by the food photos i would send to them since i never tell them anything - if i suddenly stopped, they would know i hit another depressive episode, fun times.
eventually my qpp moved in with me, and i clung to my position of being the one in charge of cooking still, but with another person i actually cared about, i started being more consistent and aware with stuff i would cook. the fact that i had a solid understanding of basics from before + all that random experimentation i've done meant that i could look in the fridge and make something up on the spot, and the result would actually be nice and balanced and not too expensive, which is. pretty good i think. for me at least, having someone to feed has a rly positive effect on the quality of my dishes in general...

crazy idea, but what if this new lady tilley arnold is sophie’s step mom as her actress is currently 39, suitable age for her being step mom, moreover actress already has been in popular show (black sails), so it they prob would give her a bigger role than just a simple background character for one minute, her character is described as “widowed at an early age, she enjoys the privileges and power that come with being at the helm of her former husband’s estate, living life on her own terms with financial independence and sexual freedom” , so i think changing story little bit from cinderella is better, but still keeping sophie as her ex husband bastard
Could be it’s an interesting idea.
But I think if she has any connection to Sophie she wouldn’t have been named yet.
John hasn’t been “officially” announced yet as he’s a “main”character/ love interest so in guessing she’s just a no body really a bit like Tessa was.
She’s supposed to be linked to Sophie and I can’t deal with and I dont like the idea of Benedict being with step mother and then Sophie.
It gives me the ick
