#the companion

[princessprotectorhornet]

I have not stopped thinking about Metamorphosis since I first watched it like 3 weeks ago. But not because of the “Companion do you love the Man” part. Because it hurt my feelings when Cochrane was appalled at the idea of fucking an alien. What is wrong with you? Why did you even do space travel??

I would be ecstatic if The Companion was in love with me that’s all I’m saying.

Basingstoke Comic Con 2024: a summary

[noahhawthorneauthor]

According to Goodreads and Audible, we're all birds of a feather somehow. Maybe it's the found family, maybe it's the yearning.

Guess you'll have to find out for yourself.

A bunch of Artfight 2024 attacks we did :) !!! We started off a little slower than last year, lots of stuff going on this month, but we managed to make a few pieces with actual backgrounds this time, plus a bunch of animations (not shown here)! A huge achievement!!

We're gradually posting the attacks we did now that Artfight is over. It was a fun year, can't wait for next year!!

The Companion by E.E. Ottoman

[ID: a digital illustration of Victor, Madeline, and Audrey tangled in an embrace on the porch. Victor is leaning on the wicker bench, face buried in kissing Madeline's neck and lifting her skirt up her thigh, revealing garters and dark stockings. Madeline is gripping Victor's knee, face turned to Audrey, eyes locked on her lips. Madeline's face mask of pleasure and want. Audrey is faced towards Madeline, a hand gliding under the collar of her dress, face near enough to kiss. Surrounding them are the many plants of Victor's porch, and outside the plants, a swirly gold art nouveau style frame. The image is dominated by shades of blue and green and brown, except for the points of contact between them and Audrey's hair— all of which are kiss-bite red. End ID]

Emily Fitch (Skins) MBTI, please?

Hi there, sweetie! I really hope you like this a lot!

Emily Fitch's MBTI Type, Big Three, Enneagram Type and Moral Alignment

MBTI Type: INFP [The Mediator]

INFPs value time alone or with very small groups and can often feel exhausted after spending time with large groups of people.

They tend to focus on the big picture and don’t get lost on the smaller details. They have strong intuitions and often follow their gut instincts.

Mediators tend to prioritize emotion and make decisions that feel right. They are very diplomatic and can easily understand others' emotions.

They are very flexible in their schedules. INFPs like to keep their options open and tend to be more spontaneous.

Big Three: Aries Sun, Pisces Moon and Cancer Rising

Aries Sun: The first sign of the zodiac, Aries is ruled by action planet Mars. When placed as the sun sign, the ram can motivate themselves to face on fears and blow past hesitation.

Pisces Moon: Pisces Moons are hyper-attuned to the needs and emotions of others. They're likely to predict what's on your mind before you even say it.

Cancer Rising: Cancer ascendants tend to wear their hearts on their sleeves and take care of those they love.

Enneagram Type: 2w1 [The Companion]

Basic Fear: Enneagram type two-wing-ones fear being unwanted by those they love. They tend to take on a caretaker role to serve others and avoid feelings of insecurity.

Basic Desire: They desire love and acceptance above all else. They are service-oriented and humble, seeking to help better the lives of those in their community.

Companions tend to stifle and repress their negative emotions and personal desires. They may feel internally conflicted as they work to meet everyone else’s needs but their own.

Moral Alignment: Neutral Good [The Benevolent]

These characters seek to do good, but are flexible in how they achieve it, valuing both order and freedom.

this five minute shitpost is, unfortunately, basically canon

[variousqueerthings]

wants to write a post on the doctor and their companions but it's so!!!! Big! the platonic-non-platonic! the built-in expiration date! the queerness of temporality! the queerness of the lack of easy-to-define labels! the queerness of needing long explanations in lieu of labels! the queerness of not explaining anything at all! the struggle to articulate! the fluid nature of each of them not just from the doctor with a new companion perspective but for a companion re-evaluating with a new doctor! the vagueness of the word "companion" that still feels much more correct than "friend" or "partner"! the poetry of each story in direct or indirect reflection in contrast in newness in reference to one another! the intangibility of the idea of travelling through space and time! the tangibility of the doctor taking someone's hand for the first time! the doctor always needing a companion! the inevitable undefinable changes that the companion undergoes both for good and for bad because of this need! the companions' multitudes of reasons for accepting companionship! the companions' in some ways seeking the same core things every time! the juxtaposition of constant danger and death with the sense of immortality and vitality that the companion feels whilst travelling! the lovecraftian nature of the worlds opened up to them! the multitude of ways the doctor and companion relationships end (knowing they always end from the beginning)! the alienness and the familiarity of these dynamics! the doctor and their companion! there must always be a companion! how can this be easily summed up?
