rewatching S6 in bits and pieces for current fic and ahhhhhhhhhh but the whole Jack, Diana, Mosley and Lizzie final dinner is so *viscerally* fucking satisfying on every sensory and intellectual and emotional level of consumption.
#every single movement facial expression breath flick of an eye the choice of 'mosley' not 'mr mosley'#the way mosley says 'lizzie' for the first time#jack's buildup and his mad fucking innuendo just before diana and oswald show#particularly how every drink is taken and by whom and when#lizzie constantly holding herself back the entire time from Saying Something all these flinches and half-breaths#insane#INSANE#as much as the end of S3 is roaringly wrenchingly furiously emotionally good#this dinner is something else#this whole episode is pretty much something else though fffffffffffff#jack's patronising constant reference to tommy as if he's a much younger man/boy when you look at these two guys and jack looks younger??#by design i am sure#in the scene with the tie before the dinner.the way tommy's face says one thing while facing away from lizzie#then he puts on that mask as he turns to face her and you can SEE HIM DO THAT jesus#it would a writing exercise and a half to actually try to capture that scene in writing and work out what needs to be said/described#to carry the same effect because @coffeeatnight23 -> this scene is totally Tommy ripping his own heart out then eating it with relish :)#it *is* the saddest thing but also a fucking *reclamation* of something that tommy hasn't had since his suicide attempt. there's lots of#small reclamations of self that happen in post-Ruby S6 i seem to recall. despite flicks old trauma/foggy memory wandering also this-#-sort of structural shift/acceptance he is who he is and that is how he has agency (not solely money?)#anyway it's not triumph but there is *something* that i haven't found the word for yet#acceptance is one word but there's something more vicarious and dark in it that acceptance doesn't connote

I like to think that Vulcans who come to understand that Humans just can’t try to process emotions the same way as them, it’s just healthiest to let it out in harmless ways, decide that venting and stuff should be taken just as seriously as Vulcan’s meditation time, and will encourage the Humans around them to complain about what’s upsetting them
People who are used to aloof Vulcans who avoid Humans at all cost running into one comforting a Human
“-and then they said my cheesecake was subpar, and they didn’t even bring a dish!!!”
“The purpose of this event was that every participant brings a food item of sorts, correct?”
“Yeah!!”
“And they did not follow this rule while insulting dishes that were brought?”
“Mostly just my dish but yeah >:(“
“How illogical”
“That’s what I’m saying!!!”
#star trek#Vulcans#Humans#not based on a specific thing#but I used to know this annoying couple that were ‘family friends’#who would show up to potluck dinners and the like and would either bring nothing or bring something really just. out of left field?#like a bag of frozen chicken to a bbq#and then proceed to make sure they are first even if it was stated to let kids go first#would take HUGE amounts before anyone else got a chance to get a plate#and then make off with the leftovers again even if they were already claimed for#and it wasn’t a food insecurity thing trust me I would never speak bad about a person getting food if that was even a remote chance#the adults who raised us knew them really well and we’d been to their house a ton of times#they were just dicks#and yeah. they’d occasionally insult the food. while eating the MAJORITY of it.#it was so weird at their home they would go out of their way to get the healthiest options possible#you know the really bland tasteless expensive stuff that apparently was healthier#but then if they were visiting our house they would. eat all our unhealthy snacks.#that always pissed me off so much as a kid because we actually had a food insecurity thing going on#and also a variety of other reasons that are a bit too depressing to bring up on this post#but anyways we’d hardly ever get to have nice snacks#and this couple would just take them all??? even after we’d tell them repeatedly that it was ours and those snacks weren’t gonna be#replaced#hated that couple#if you’re wondering why they were ‘family friends’ it’s because the couple who raised us#(it feels weird to type it out like that but apparently legal guardians doesn’t fit since they never finished petitioning 💀)#liked having them around because it made them look like ‘such great Christian’s’ being nice to the people#that no one else wanted to be friends with#I always thought that was a really weird and fucked up reason to be friends with someone#this got long sorry 😭

being depressed emotionally but not mentally is. weird
my thoughts aren't dark, life doesn't feel hopeless, I know the mood will pass, I'm calm and at ease with that
but I still feel flat, tired, unenthusiastic about anything, I don't want to eat, I'm not drinking enough water, I didn't leave bed today until 6pm
but when I did I stood outside, I planted my bare feet in the wet grass, and for a moment I didn't feel so numb, for a moment it was nice. I enjoyed that. I was capable of enjoying that, even if briefly
it's like I'm stuck halfway, I feel like thunder without rain
just kinda weird

Chappell Roan and Casey McQuiston let’s go
Good Luck, Babe - Shara Wheeler!!! Shara heard this for the first time when it came out and dropped to her knees.
Naked In Manhattan - One Last Stop!! The most One Last Stop song to ever One Last Stop. Seriously. It’s SO them.
Casual - Alex after the lakehouse. I know you’re thinking “but the song is so Henry!! Two weeks and your mom invites me to her house in Long Beach!” but you’re wrong. Henry meant for it to be casual the whole time, and when it was clear than for Alex it wasn’t casual, he ran. It was never casual for Henry, sure, but Alex thought it was after he left the lakehouse. Also Jane when August kept insisting the kisses were purely “for research”.
Picture You - Somehow both Henry and August.
Pink Pony Club - IKSW cast after leaving False Beach in the future (specially Shara), also August through the book, with all the people she met (oh Santa Monica, you’ve been too good to me)
My Kink Is Karma - Chloe Green!
HOT TO GO! - I feel like this will fit The Pairing (no I haven’t read it, but I do have read reviews)
Red Wine Supernova - August!! I mean, “she was a playboy, she showed me things I didn’t know, she did it right there, out on the deck, put her canine teeth on the side of my neck” and “fell in love with the thought of you” is SO august.
Femininomenon - Nora, Shara, and Myla would know the whole song from memory and scream it during car rides.
California - Teen Jane after running away from home to be herself, finding herself missing her sisters and her parents.
Super Graphic Ultra Modern Girl - June Claremont-Diaz the super graphic ultra modern girl that you are.
Kaleidoscope - Henry before the lakehouse, thinking than Alex would eventually get tired of him and it was all just casual fun.
Die Young - Somehow, Bea (before rehab)
Coffee - Kit perhaps. Again, haven’t read the pairing, but based on reviews (containing spoilers) then…
After Midnight - Our bisexual icon, Alex (while drunk)
Guilty Pleasure - August! Also Shara (guilty cause you know)
Love Me Anyway - Both Alex and Henry!!! “When I met you at summer camp, I would never give you the chance,” Alex hating Henry after meeting him at Rio, and Henry wanting to keep distance from Alex. “Turned you down at your high school dance” Alex insisting to keep things casual and Henry leaving the lakehouse.
Good Hurt - Baby Henry with Philip’s uni friend, who he knows is not the best choice, but he’s just lonely and grieving and needs someone, anyone.
Meantime - Perhaps Liam’s pov of his situationship with Alex during high school.
Sugar High - Rory about Smith.
Bad For You - idk (and no, it is not rwrb)
The Subway - DUH august during the month she thought Jane went back to the 70s. Also Alex after the lakehouse, but mostly August.
rest in peace, chappell roan, you would LOVE one last stop

"girls support girls-" okay but are you normal about queer women? are you normal about BIWOC? are you normal about disabled women? are you normal about autistic women? are you normal about fat women? alternative women? unattractive women? are you normal about women who choose not to shave their legs and armpits and faces? are you normal about butches and tomboys and masculine women? are you normal about trans women? are you normal about trans men? are you normal about nonbinary folk and people who lie outside the gender binary or renounce gender all together? are you normal about women who absolutely despise and detest the latest trends? are you normal about weird women who unsettle you with their interests? are you normal about women who don't wear makeup, who will never wear makeup, who openly dislike makeup and the makeup industry?

grr hello i am still thinking about your sentiemilie au
emmy pov...imagine! you have no life before, and no life after. all you know is the House.
the House and those who live in it. the Man who stares too much. the Woman who averts her eyes. and the Boy who pities you, when it should be the other way around.
an intern, they call you - and you may not know much, but you do know that this is not what an intern should be doing.
the Man has you pose for him often. he designs clothes, he tells you, and more than that, he designs clothes for you. you stand in his office, eyes drawn to the large frame behind his desk. the empty frame.
perhaps he'll put a portrait of you up there some day, he says. you don't ask whose portrait used to be up there.
the Woman barely glances up from her tablet when you approach. you're here to help, you tell her. isn't that what an intern should be doing? her lips purse, as though you have said something wrong. but you don't know what wrong is - all you know is what you were told.
you're a hard worker, you insist. please, if there's anything you can do--
no, she says, harsh. but then, she softens. you can go spend some time with the Boy, she tells you. he'll be glad to see you.
then why aren't you glad to see me? you want to say. you never do.
the Boy is often in his room, a fact you don't quite understand. his door is not locked - not like yours so often is - but he acts like it is. like it would be the hardest thing in the world to wrap his hand around the doorknob and step outside.
with that, you sympathize. your world is the House. what could possibly lie beyond?
the Boy is so, so kind to you. he treats you like something fragile, something delicate - like if he closes his eyes and opens them again, you'll vanish. gone, back to wherever you were before the House.
he stutters over your name, the syllables unfamiliar in his mouth.
is there something else you'd rather call me? you ask him.
...no, he says, not yet.
then when?
when it is your portrait on the wall? when the Woman sees you as an equal? when the Man finally tires of dressing you?
the Boy looks sad. because of you, perhaps. but when you rise to leave, his hand reaches out to catch yours.
you can stay, he says quietly. if you want.
you do want, so you stay.
i'm sorry, you say after a moment. if me being here... if it's making things hard for you.
it's all right, says the Boy, and he squeezes your hand. he is so very kind. but then he says: it's only temporary, after all.
what is?
you, he says. sooner or later, they'll get tired of you. sooner or later, they'll make a new one.
a new one. a new intern, a new model. a new family.
you think your heart would be pounding in your chest - if you had one.
HI NEMALI!!! my love!!! my insp!!
my god..... genuinely I adore your 2nd person pov writing, it just arrests me and I know it'll gut me sooner or later in the story and UGH!!
ALL YOU KNOW IS THE HOUSE!!! what an absolutely confusing situation. I just know Gabriel sanded her down just enough to not ask questions, but the right questions so she isn't boring to him.
"the Man has you pose for him often." SICKENING. and hello!!! emilie always haunting the narrative!!!
and Nathalie hating to face her--in some way, a cowards way out--but offering her a solace, a friend, someone who will genuinely and wholesomely be happy to see her. !!
"his door is not locked - not like yours so often is -" O H OH OH HELLO!! who locked it!!! does she understand on some level or is it Nathalie, protecting her, or Gabriel keeping her from leaving!!
him stuttering over her name and her asking if he'd rather something else GUTS me. the layers. "...no, he says, not yet." UGH!!! nemali please!!!
"you think your heart would be pounding in your chest - if you had one." EMMY ESCAPE THE HOUSE ESCAPE THE NARRATIVE I AM OUTSIDE THE GATE!!
thank you thank you thank you aaaaaa I genuinely LOVED this and I'm literally so over the moon at everyone who has sent in ideas and art and I love!!! this idea and how people are using it and yours, as always, are outstanding <3
oh emmy..... alexa play what was I made for.....!!!

Do you ever think about how Kanako knew about Axis but Ceroba didn't? Kanako has a drawing of Axis in her room and I doubt that's because she just so happened to have imagined a robot that looks just like Axis especially when the rest of her drawings in her room are of people that she knew. But Ceroba didn't know Chujin made Axis until she was about to destroy him. Kanako. Chujin's daughter. Probably no older than 10 years old. Knew more about Chujin's project/work/life than his own wife. Because he was too ashamed to have Ceroba potentially think less of him because he got fired because of Axis. But his daughter gets to know about him and the robot he made.

Merry Sinsmas y'all!
@radioapple-heathen I actually did manage to draw the scene, now I'm waiting for that fic of yours :D
To everyone else, hikari posted on Bluesky four days ago that she needs to write a fanfiction about this scene. Which led to me needing to draw it!
I thought I wouldn't be able to pull it off because I'm shit at drawing bodies on my laptop. But then I remembered that I do in fact have a talent fpr sketches on paper.
Which led to me a) buying a lot of new erasers cuz I had been running low on the good ones and b) first sketching the figures on paper, scanning said paper, redoing the line art digitally and finally coloring it.
Maybe a bit unorthodox but it worked wonders for me and I'm incredibly happy about the result!
And thanks @allastoredeer for the drawing guides, they helped so so much!

Trying to reorganize the list of oc rp accounts so i can make it. Not just a really long list and actually make it something orderly and
Tumblr media Tumblr media
There are too many of you /affectionate) and I'm still missing like. Three. But I'll deal with that when I finish up and post the list. Gotta reorder it by year and then reorder it again alphabetically so i'm not trying to figure out chronology again and make sure all the info is correct and then I have to copypaste it to tumblr and link everyone because you can only put 50 @'s in one post and. . . . . . . . . . . . . .

It went like this. At first there'd been the pictures, weirdly hot shots of a hand down basic cotton underwear, a soft belly and cream white thighs. Simon hadn't known her then but the lyrics that came with the pics had convinced him she was a genius, a weird wild girl with a thing for polaroids. He'd liked that too, the polaroids. It meant his were the only copies of the pictures she sent, that no other asshole had access to her in quite the same way, and he'd enjoyed that.
 From the polaroids to an actual life together, Simon attempts to learn how to say the things he feels. He doesn't like the process much, but he actually likes Patty a lot, so that helps.

Spent so much time making sushi for dinner and was so excited to have a funky little sushi roll and eat it like a burrito but then my nori ripped apart mid roll and I had to eat it as a salad and apparently my brain doesn’t like the texture of imitation crab + seaweed and rice rn :(
