feeling slightly vindicated watching an RAS interview bc keep getting this feeling from the drizzt books that theyre very italian-american (as in, i see a lot of things i recognize from italian culture in it, but influenced and changed by american culture) and he said that he based off the culture of menzo partly on his hometown and then the sopranos/godfather which confirmed it to me
also he pronounces menzoberranzan the way i used to before someone else corrected me JKNDSKJFKDS
#i used to pronounce it MEN-zoh-buh-ran-ZAN#but then i got told its MEN-zoh-buh-RAN-zan#for those wondering what i recognize abt italian culture (so far)#a BIG emphasis on family and religion#the pressure to create big families with lots of connections to other family units#emphasis on showing yourself as not only being religious but actively involve yourself in religious affair#and chasing approval of god (lolth)/ saints (the yochlol) /higher religious figures (high priestesses and the baenres)#people will react with high disapproval and often shunning or rage at someone rejecting the religious order or even just the suspicion of i#and of course the enforcement of gender binaries with set roles between women and men#pretty interesting too that in nearly all families i know including my own the wife/mother is always the most religious figure in the house#with many being actively involved in the parish (my mom's a cathechist lol)#while often the men range from neutral to disinterested to outright agnostic (rarely atheist tho)#which is very similar to how in menzo the women are the ones in religious power#the american part is the heavy emphasis on showy fights and large scale battles#a focus on individualism over the collective#and the big family part often coming more as a “couple and possibly lovers having lots of children”#rather than also the extended family of grandparents uncles aunts and cousins often living nearby#or straight up together and sharing family activities#legend of drizzt#bani.txt

My life a movie review channel
#on cinema at the cinema#just realized my irl uncle literally went through a Tim Heidecker arc#including remarrying within months of my aunt dying from cancer and doing a bunch of israel tourism#getting divorced and then married again and moving out to rural idaho to go be an alt right fringe freak#this is not intended to be a trauma dump this shit is genuinely funny to me#my family feels like the on cinema family :)

drama and gossip gets so much more fun once you're out of high school
the weekly "who's dating who?" is boring. my mom telling me about the cousin with five kids who's trying to start shit with her husband on facebook, though? that tea is HOT tell me more
#other fun types of family drama include:#My mom making a super cool cake to spite my aunt (mom has brought dessert for 10 years; got told she “didn't need to this year”)#My uncle telling my cousin all the dumb shit my other uncle (cousin's dad) did as a teenager#board game grudges are a classic#A different cousin told my mom she was pregnant before telling her own mother

thank you to everyone who's shared and donated so far y'all are amazing <3
#i didn't include this on the gofundme but i have multiple very wealthy family members on my dad's side. one is literally a millionaire.#and i have not received a penny from them despite asking directly for help. they just ignored me lol. fun stuff#my uncle did help with the flight and funeral expenses so i really do appreciate him for that#but... god#i hate that i have to ask people who are probably not much better off than i am for assistance when people like my aunt have multiple house#anyways sorry for the vent i know this is kind of personal#faye.txt

I’ve only been in nyc for 6 hours and there is already so much family drama that my stomach is turning,
#my aunt an uncle are kicking my grandparents out of the house they’ve lived in for the last 60 years#and I just know my mom is gonna want to move them into our two bedroom cottage#she’ll sacrifice everything for them#including our sanity and health#when there are so many other aunts and uncles they could live with

You know how people say 'write what you know'? Yeah, sometimes writing what you know might seem completely insane and completely implausible.
Take for instance using things that happened in my family. If I were to have a scene where characters got into a feud over one character using another character's enema bag, people might think that would be too out of character for anyone to be that stupid. Such a thing has happened in my family's history. It devastated my late-Great Aunts because you can't get rubber-tipped enema bags anymore, only plastic.
Or if I were to have a character sneak out in the dead of night to save a china cabinet from other characters who wanted it for themselves even though said cabinet was several miles away, it might seem insane. My father drove from Fairfax VA to Buffalo, New York to claim my great-grandmother's china cabinet that my grandmother wanted my mom to have but my great-aunts also wanted it and my grandmother sobbed on the phone to my mother about it.
Or if I were to have a character shout 'dad, dad, mom's gonna show her feet' when her mother is about to show her gnarled, bunion and hammer-toed ridden feet to her daughter's boyfriend who was there for the second time...yeah I don't know how people would react because it seems like something no one would do, doesn't it? Replace 'character' with 'my mother' and you have the story of the second time my dad met my mom's parents.
I have more stories about how out there my extended family is but this post is getting long enough. So if there's a moment in my fics where a scenario seems unlikely to happen to someone in real life...I give you my real life lol :D
#personal musings#sorry mom I'm talking about our family to total strangers again#thankfully unless this post goes viral I doubt she'll see it#as my parents don't get Tumblr and really does anyone really 'get' Tumblr?#but yeah all three example actually happened and more#Including the time my grandmother called a member of her family a See You Next Tuesday Happy Weirdo because of how she regd her emotions#I have no idea if Tumblr will censor things in tags so sound out the sentence to hear the word ;)#there was also the time my great aunt wrote my mom and her brothers out of her will by writing in the will that they were out of the will#the time my grandma told like four month old me 'smile if you love grandma' and I ACTUALLY DID#The time my blind grandmother threatened to kill my cousin's blind boyfriend if he ever hurt her because he swore during Thanksgiving#The time my mom got the call about my grandma dying on my 15th birthday and we were on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial#The time my uncles got into a feud over my grandmother's flat screen TV after her death#And I mean this is just my mom's family#I'm sure my dad's family has moments just as messed up the only difference is they don't talk about them

Is there a magic system in your oc setting?
kind of??? I'm still working out the logistics of that, though there's some kind of groundwork in regards to the literal fear Locke contains and is powered by (odd lookin red kind of anti-gravity substance, can be extracted and compressed. somehow. can you tell all my attention has gone to the characters themselves) and I'm thinking of applying that to all base-core emotions, emotions channeled into some really light magic or something.
Really, this thing is generally grounded besides the runes Locke got carved down their "spine" at some point that allows them to do some funky telekinesis things
#I don't know why I put spine in quotations#they do actually have an entire (albeit metal) skeleton#why? why not#(four friends on their respective teams building Locke were really passionate about this project and crafted a skeleton in their downtime)#(they were also the four who stuck around with Locke once they were powered on and showed them the ropes)#(even while it was warned against forming relations with Locke so their core focus is in protecting the fear they contain. Pi in particular#found that to be astoundingly dumb. Ze was one of the psychologists tasked on the AI in making Locke* as human as possible)#(which of course includes the need for social connection)#(Locke recalls the lot of them as aunt-and-uncle-like figures)#oc lore#my oc stuff#*[they weren't named Locke at the time]#thank you for the question :D

Someone please remind me that I am too drunk to be commenting on my bigoted cousins' (yes, more than one of them posted it) FB posts about schools supposedly "transitioning students" without "parents' permission".
To be fair, my only question is "did anyone ask the kid what they want?"
#how did my most liberal aunts/uncles#raise the most conservative/bigoted kids#and the most conservative family members#including my parents#raised the most liberal kids#I mean none of us are kids anymore#my sister is the youngest#and she's 42#but my point still stands#and I've been wondering this for years#it can't all be about parental rebellion right?
