#the rest is kind of forgotten

[reginrokkr]

I think there is something that I didn't get to say openly, which is that I'm not opposed to pre-established relationships! This comes from a place where I know that sometimes it can get boring, maybe even draining to start from the beginning every single time with everyone.

So what do I understand by pre-established relationships? It doesn't have to be necessarily anything yet, meaning that say we want to skip past first introductions or to venture a tad further down the line of our muses' relationship and work from there, I'm down for it. These can always be discussed via IMs and be referenced in the interactions we have. Moreover, suffice to say that I'm not chronologically-locked, either. While yes, I do like to see how things go in order, I'm aware that time constraints and other matters won't always allow it. So long as we don't forget that we have pre-established something that has room for deepening via meme thingies / IC asks or even another thread running at the same time than another more in the "future", I'm cool with it.

a small moment of kindness that touched me today. speaking about our struggles as grad students in class with classmates. our small group is all BIPOC; another latine and two arabs, one who is palestinian. we are speaking very honestly about our fears and frustrations. feeling useless. feeling scared. upset at the world and its horrors. angry at other peoples' silence. but at the same time so so full of joy and hope. i talked about being scared of being forgotten, and we continued on with our group task of creating a liberation health triangle.

professor transitioned us back to the full class and while our professor began speaking again, my Palestinian classmate--so beautiful and with the most wonderful curls--leaned close to me and whispered "I'll never forgot you." I almost didn't hear her so i whispered back, "what?", and as sweetly as the first time she said, "I'll never forget you. And I'll never forget what you said last semester. You were the first person in this entire program who spoke of your frustrations. I felt less alone."

the walk home from class was very cold, but i could not help but let myself repeat the moment in my head over and over again.

going crazy about this screencap. the way the background is all starry and beautiful but blurry. and they’re in focus and looking at each other, LOCKED on each other. there’s nothing in the their minds except each other. the world falls away and it’s only them only them only them.

People in the comments of the new splatfest song are kinda annoying ngl,,

Marina is very smart y’all. Even if she was sheltered by growing up in the Octarian domes, I’m preeetty sure everyone wasn’t super kind and genuine to each other all the time. There’s no way Marina doesn’t know what being passive aggressive looks like. She’s not too uwu pure to tell that Shiver was insulting her. She’s just a genuine fan of Deep Cut and she ain’t about that petty insults stuff.

while cap tends to banter with his villains and monologue about how he’ll defeat them with his “Wedgie Power!” kipper rarely talks during battle, if at all. if he does it’s usually incredibly stern and to the point, he has very little patience for most of the antagonists’ bullshit half the time and just wants to get it over with as soon as possible so he can go home and put some clothes on

Jeryk's specific type of trans-ness comes in the form of "tomboy who never 'grew out of it'"

As many issues as there are with Forgotten Realms and unflattering female depictions, I gotta say...

...Dragonlance is pretty up there, too.

Contrary to most backstories where Roman carved his original mask from his father’s coffin, this Roman instead carved it from his mother’s. Mrs. Sionis despised him much more vehemently than her husband, who merely regarded their child with uninterested disdain at best and so Roman deliberately defiled her coffin out of spite, knowing she would have absolutely hated him using her wood for his face.

Sometimes you read a published book and you're like "Huh, I could write better than that, this is around my skill level, I could make this, I could make it better, in fact," and sometime you read a published book and you're like "I could never write this, I wasn't even aware people could write like this, I couldn't even tell you how much better this is than my own stuff because this level is clearly beyond what I can even comprehend, this story will stick with me for the rest of my life" and you won't know which book is which before you pick it up. How fun!

Alright, I'm getting close to almost caught up. Gonna stop reading here, since this is the highest note we'll land on for... awhile

An act of kindness I'll never forget - I was in elementary school, and both a classmate and I were reading the same book series. We were both bullied at recess, so we would stay inside and read in the library instead (with one or two other students). The elementary school librarian knew us both well, and she told us that she was buying a copy of the new book from the series for the library. She promised us both it would be ready for check out on release day.

My classmate and I talked for WEEKS about running to the library on lunch break (against the rules!) to get the book first. The day comes, we both tear out of the classroom and bolt for the library, and up to the desk.

Our librarian is there, waiting for us at the desk, smiling. We ask her who made it to the desk first (I think he did, honestly) - who gets to check out the book first, and who gets it second? We're out of breath, but she just laughs...

She pulls two copies of the book from underneath the desk.
