#they are. so gay

some pearlina thoughts because side order is Their dlc okay guys (tagged this as spoilers just in case). Specifically, about their love languages.

When I was first playing I noticed there were a lot of scenes where Marina praised or fawned over Pearl, but not so much from Pearl’s end. For a bit I thought this meant Pearl didn’t have the same feelings as Marina did, but I thought about it a little more and realized that no. She cares just as much as Marina does, just in a different way.

From all her lines in Side Order, I think Marina is very much a “words of affection” kinda gal—she communicates that she loves Pearl often by outright telling her. I imagine this also takes the form of like, love letters? Or songs. She seems like the type to be into that. Also physical touch, too, given the tackle-hug from OE.

Pearl, meanwhile—I think her love language is more “acts of service.” When we first meet her in the DLC, she’s made finding Marina her first priority—she immediately moves to try and protect her. You also see this when reaching the top of the Spire, where she’s hesitant to let Marina join the fight against Order. Protecting someone, I think, is kind of an act of service—it’s doing a favor for something else. So, I think Pearl often shows her love by taking care of Marina when she needs it, by giving her a massage or helping her out with household chores or what have you. It’s not necessarily as blatant as Marina’s love towards Pearl, but it’s love just the same.

the funniest meltdown ive ever had was in college when i got so overstimulated that i could Not speak, including over text. one of my friends was trying to talk me through it but i was solely using emojis because they were easier than trying to come up with words so he started using primarily emojis as well just to make things feel balanced. this was not the Most effective strategy... until. he tried to ask me "you okay?" but the way he chose to do that was by sending "👉🏼👌🏼❓" and i was so shocked by suddenly being asked if i was dtf that i was like WHAT???? WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY TO ME?????????? and thus was verbal again

so when straight people ask me why I say I’m “queer” or “gay” instead of sharing my actual identity as a panromantic demisexual non-binary sapphic queer I just tell them “ok look, when you’re talking to someone who isn’t local and they ask you where you’re from and you either say the name of the largest city nearby or ‘town name, suburb of large nearby city’ so they can get some geographical context of where you’re located right, bc they’re probably not going to know the name of the little town you actually live in.”

but if you’re talking to a local you can say the name of your actual town bc they have a greater chance of knowing where/what that is.

ok well when I’m talking to a straight person I start with queer bc chances are they aren’t as familiar with the context of all the little towns in that big queer city and need gps (gay positioning system) to find me.

if I’m talking to another queer person and I say I live in a suburb of gay city in a town called panromantic on the demisexual side of the tracks which is in the county of queer and I live off the intersection of non-binary and sapphic, they’d probably be able to find me with little to no problems, make sense?

I will genuinely never forgive anyone involved in making The Imitation Game for their absolute travesty of Alan Turing’s story.

He was intensely autistic, and gay, and *kind*.

He mentored people below him in the programme - including women, who pretty much everyone else was crappy to.

He had terrible allergies and went cycling in a gas mask in the country to avoid then, and when he got overstimulated at parties he pulled incredibly daft elaborate “walking into a cupboard” leaving gags to handle them that left everyone screaming on the floor despite the silliness.

He got on really well with kids and never talked down to them. He gave his neighbours his sugar rations on their kids’ birthdays so she could always make them birthday cakes - even when he was being persecuted after the war, even when he was suffering horrible side effects from the tortures they put him through.

He was such an utterly, genuinely lovely human being, and he deserved so much damn better, and at the very *least* he deserved to be portrayed as who he was in the 21st fucking century instead of falling into a whole slew of horrifically harmful stereotypes that erased the fucking gift he was to us all over again.
