US State Mottos

my favorite genre of cherik, as a virginian, is "virginia cherik" (or when they have a gayass scene in virginia together). and i mean, notice how only first class and dofp have these two in virginia together? and notice how they're the best x men "prequel" movies? mhm, mhm. virginia brings the QUALITY.

and virginia is for lovers, after all <3

I think I should start writing Jimmy McGill/Saul Goodman x readers because knowing how shit NM is would probably make stories, plots, headcannons, all that jazz just so much better. (I just want an excuse to complain about how shitty this place is, but also because I'm craving Jimmy fluff rather than hardcore smut)

the variety between some of these mottos is sending me.

In honor of my original idea “Henry will be the vessel for the Alderking”, the question “what if Henry grew up with his father” and the Taiden being soulmates concept (brought to you by @deadlycupid), let me raise you this au:

Henry was raised and trained by Cameron and the knights because everyone is convinced he’s the Alderking’s soul reborn (since they look alike and all that) and they want him to one day “regain his throne”.

However, they are mistaken. For as much as Henry may look like the Alderking reborn, he is not the actual rebirth.

It’s the other of the two brothers instead. Aiden. He is the true soul of the Alderking, reborn. But he is on no one’s radar since he was raised in the human world.

And then one day, Aiden comes to the world of fae, probably looking for the brother he just now heard existed and somehow gets roped into the whole mess, ending up fighting against the knights.

And even then, when there are some subtle yet clear signs of who he truly is, the knights simply don’t get it.

In comes Talon. Talon, in this scenario, is a knight as well. He also happens to be the reborn soul of Cyprian, the Alderking’s shield.

He called bullshit on all that the knights thought to be true right from the beginning, but no one would listen to him.

Talon looked at Aiden ONCE and immediately knows what’s up. He recognizes him, cause Cyprian would recognize his beloved king anywhere, even in this other life.

The knights will be like “Henry is the rebirth of our king” and Talon will turn right around and be like “yeah no.” *points at Aiden* “THAT is my king right there*.

But he like never says anything to the knights, cause he now realizes it’s better if they don’t know.

And then immediately he makes it his life’s work to protect Aiden, to keep him away from all danger and temptation.

Because this rebirth of the Alderking is yet the pure, good version of what the true Alderking once was and Talon tries everything in his might to keep this boy from being corrupted again.

Maybe this time, he hopes, he can actually save his king.

Not entirely sure I’m actually alive as I type this seeing as I haven’t gotten more than five hours of sleep a night for the last week and a half but we persevere. And frankly what kind of fanfic author would I be if I didn’t post in spite of sleep deprivation and also death. NEITHER RAIN NOR SLEET NOR SNOW...

Anyway, happy day-before-the-finale! I hope you’re all as ready for our funerals as I am! I’m not ready. help.

anyway I am still standing by our original quote from December that was like "either it's going to be a good year, or I'm going to find a way to make it one even if I have to claw my way through it kicking and screaming" and clearly it's gonna be the latter but luckily we find spite incredibly motivating and the worse we feel the more spiteful we get 👍

I’m FINALLY catching up on the rest of Battle Born after skipping straight to the angstiest part and can I just say that the way you write the mini Bad Batch dynamic warms my soul

Thank you! There's so much mystery about the Batch's younger years, and I just couldn't help myself.

I loved writing Tech & Hunter's relationship in particular, and throwing Wrecker in the mix just made it more wholesome. And then comes Crosshair, who somehow nestles himself in there despite his contradictory attitude.

It's a lot of fun, writing all of them at these different stages- and quite interesting, comparing their younger selves to those in the later fics.

a friend of mine and i were having a kiki about the state of the world as one would, and we literally could NOT stop laughing (because at this point, what else can you do?) but i mean PLEASE you cannOT MAKE THIS SHIT UP:

the whole bit with the healthcare insurance CEO.

shooter man is not just immediately beloved by the masses.

he's also insultingly good looking and he's so the drama that he CARVED. WORDS. on the bullets.

he gave everyone a motto to rally behind. i have never seen the U.S. this united over anything ever.

he's literally just a girl. a girl in a 2010s dystopia.

it's giving katniss everdeen with a gun.

theN THE WHOLe thING WITH FRANCE HAPPENS??!?

like their government collapsing????

like the extreme right AND the extreme left banded together somehow to give the parliament the middle finger????? because macron wanted to dissolve the parliment and call for snap elections?? i honestly don't even know what's going on over there and at this point i'm too afraid to ask.

AND THEN KOREA SPEEDRUNNING THROUGH A COUP, A DICTATORSHIP, AND OVERTHROWING SAID DICTATORSHIP IN THE SPAN OF THREE HOURS???

and my friend and i were like 'a big week for the international relations girlies' 'and didn't sabrina carpenter get cheated on? why are men. 💀' 'wait, aren't there like, BTS members IN the Korean army right now???

we lost it.
