5 Random Things I Enjoy

I was tagged by @dirty-bosmer @throughtrialbyfire and @thequeenofthewinter to share 5 random things I enjoy, thanks for the tag all of you <3

I'm tagging @akaviri-dovah @ladytanithia @crysdrawsthings @greyborn2 and @your-talos-is-problematic @lucien-lachance

Painting: I've done many forms of traditional and textile art like sewing, beading, clay, charcoal but my favourite form is acrylic on canvas <3

Epic Poetry: I read the Iliad in my first semester in undergrad and I became hooked on epic poetry ever since! My two favs would have to be the Iliad and the Divine Comedy (which I'm currently reading right now)

The Ocean: I grew up with the Atlantic Ocean as my front yard and now I live right along the pacific. The ocean truly is my happy place, I love swimming, looking for seashells, the cool creatures that live there like sharks and whales.

Music: Lately I've been replaying two songs on repeat, Cosmic Love by Florence + the Machine and Francesca by Hozier (beautiful song plus about Inferno??? say no more I'm there)

Makeup: I've recently have gotten back into makeup as a form of self-expression. I realized that I didn't like wearing foundation so ive just decided my skin is fine and to only do the makeup I think is cool. I'm a big fan lots of blush, dark lips and bold eyes

going with orym’s ecosystem analogy, as I think that’s the strongest, most defensible argument for not killing the gods:

it is not inherently wrong to ‘feed’ off the energy of other beings. animals kill plants to eat them, those animals die and are eaten in turn, whether by other animals or by the process of decomposition feeding plants and fungi. animals breathe out carbon dioxide, which plants absorb and convert into oxygen, which we breathe in. this is how life works.

life needs things to live, but it also needs things to die and it needs things to use other things. we do not—and cannot—exist in isolation from each other.

the gods are here. they have been incorporated into exandria’s ecosystem for millennia. we cannot go back and change that, so how do we move forward with it?

i like to think of a lot of the guards on Coruscant having this running gag where they make up cartoonishly evil things Fox does and bring it up to him out of nowhere as if it's casual fact, typically around newer guardsmen or GAR troopers that barely interact with him if at all. Fox doesn't really care about any of this and ignores the jokes, but does occasionally worry that certain high ranking people are just constantly hearing about him doing things like drinking the blood of widowed women in order to slow his aging, or that he survives off of nightmares he gives his men by hiding under their bunks and making scary noises.

This might be a controversial take, but l don't think Eve deserves or should get a redemption arc.

I think they should be friends :)

Hear me out, ftm Regulus who was promised to Evan when they were kids, and so because of that, they became super close as kids, and like, bestie for life level. But then, Reggie realizes hes trans and comes out, so he and Evan are no longer allowed to get married and stuff. And they're both actually upset about it even though they were never even really romantically attracted to each other, they were just besties who thought it was the best option for them to get married, after seeing some of the other people their parents would've approved of. And then blah blah blah, jegulus, and blah blah blah, rosekiller and they stay besties for life, and live happily ever after with their respective partners but they always make jokes about each other being each other's husband and stuff like that ahahhahaha

yes i'm rooting for m*leven breakup because byler is neat but mostly? i'm rooting for m*leven breakup for the sake of el and mike.

to me, their romance was always a puppy love born out of a combination of social pressures, naïve curiosity, and a lack of true understanding regarding intimacy and romantic love and what it really is. it was real in that they do truly, deeply care about each other and they are close friends, maybe even shared an attraction, but a maturing romance is so much more than that. they've grown up and out of being boyfriend/girlfriend, and that's okay! i think television/film needs to show more often that most of us don't have definite "soulmates" or first childhood loves that we spend our whole lives with. it doesn't mean these relationships meant nothing and didn't impact us, it just means they've run their course and that something else is in the cards, and this is part of life!

i've always felt el was at her best and most confident self when broken up with mike, discovering who she was and what she liked alongside another girl her age instead of just relying on mike for mentorship on how to live in the real world. she deserves more of an opportunity to find herself, her autonomy, and her independence, and to love who she is, and she's made it clear she's felt insecure in the relationship with mike because she isn't being loved and understood the way she wants, needs, and deserves from someone who is her partner.

also, it's okay if mike doesn't love her in "the way he should". he is not obligated to love her romantically and stay in a relationship with her just because she's a girl, because she "needed someone", or because he cares about her a lot. he shouldn't be pressured into a romance if it's not truly coming from his heart. he deserves freedom to find out and honour who he is, too, instead of just staying in his non-functional first relationship — one he got into as a child, essentially — and defining himself that way because it's what's expected when a boy and a girl are close. he loves her in some way, yes, but it's okay if he doesn't feel comfortable or secure being her boyfriend anymore, for whatever reason that is. he's felt insecure too, and that's valid and it matters.

they are their own people and are steadily growing and changing every day. they need time to figure out who those people are, and it's become clear (at least in my opinion) that those people aren't meant to be a couple at this stage.

they deserve freedom. they deserve to grow up and be authentic to themselves and not feel like they need to lie for the sake of a relationship. they deserve to move on from this version of their relationship that isn't making them happy and rekindle the best part of their bond: their strong, beautiful friendship. they don't have to be a couple if it doesn't make them stronger and better and happier people.

i think it would be healthy and wonderful for a show, especially one consumed frequently by young adults, to show a relationship starting, progressing, and ending on good terms in this way. sometimes things don't work out, and that is okay.

this scene is extremely funny to me but also... getting a little /srs for a sec, i take a lot of issue with "so that she can go on with her life". like um... say sike rn... it would never be mark's responsibility to tell every person he knows whether or not he's in love with them 😭 i'd get it if he previously told her he was interested in her or had been stringing her along in any way, but these two have literally not talked about romance even once. eve ily but i'm afraid this is fully on you for not 1) telling him or 2) getting over it.

Thanks @ladytanithia for tagging me! I'm tagging @dirty-bosmer @naturalbornlosers @faiyamon @greyborn2 @kookaburra1701. @crysdrawsthings @your-talos-is-problematic

Last song listened to: Cosmic Love by Florence + The Machine, gods I love this song. Favourite Lyric the stars the moon // they have all been blown out // you've left me in the dark

Currently watching: I pretty much only watch Youtube, but some shows I do enjoy and rewatch a lot are Community and Bojack Horsemen (and I Watch Rick and Morty a lot while st*ned because we cannot be sophisticated 24/7 :P)

Currently reading: The Divine Comedy! I love this story/poem/book, however you wanna call it, I adore it! If you enjoy the Divine Comedy pls talk to me about it!!! I have many thoughts, tempted to make a sideblog dedicated to epic poetry tbh haha (Dante just like me fr fr)

Current obsession: It's usually the elder scrolls, mostly Skyrim but I do adore Oblivion <3 And thanks to all the cool folks of tesblr with their cool Morrowind art and memes, I've been really obsessed with the lore and am currently waiting for my pay check to buy it and play it! Also my other chief obsession is the Iliad, I have 3 tattoos about it (with more planned).

I did a couple outfits for her a while ago and forgot to post. Wanted to do more with the colors but I was like “Oh but it wouldn’t even be Atom Eve” so… I don’t know.

[vaugarde]

i know we joke about mirabelle being the beloved token cis because of her quest, but tbh there’s something there maybe about a trans person who doesnt wish to get surgery and feels like they have to to be taken seriously as a trans person…. idk is this anything

So, uh.... anyone gonna talk about the fact that the tree of knowledge is A) the only tree in the garden of Eden depicted as being red (which is associated with evil in this intro story) and B) the only tree with very visible ROOTS?!?

Like, the roots of all evil? Literally??

No? Just me? Ah well.
