#this never happens to me

Another day, another thought, I guess this is my life now.

So last night I was reading this article in which Matthew talks about making the film and the staging of the Paris sex scene. And it struck me how much work and attention to detail was given to this moment:

Which yes, others have talked about what is placed around the room but I'd like to present exhibits B and C:

The other times we see them in bed together, Alex is on Henry's right. Protocol or his good side? (Both?) Because that's your place when you're with a Royal.

But in Paris they're the other way around. Henry is on Alex's right. That's his place. That's where he belongs. In this moment he's not Prince Henry, he's Henry Fox. He's just this guy who is in love with this other guy.

At the DNC hotel they're mired in politics. In Kensington Palace they're in the monarchy. But in Paris? They're just them. Not so much Firstprince as... some other pormanteau. Helex? Alry? Anyway. They're them in Paris and it's as close to neutral ground as they can get and I find it interesting that Henry is on Alex's right when every other instance in his life he has people on his right. He never gets to be the person on the right. He never gets to defer to someone who isn't in some line of succession.

But with Alex? He does. He defers to him (and no this is not a comment about sexual positions) and he isn't pushed into the circumstance and rules of a situation he was born into without any choice or say in the matter. He can just be himself without the need to maintain an image or a sense of duty or adhere to some archiac institution. He's on someone's right.

(He's also put Alex on his non-good side. He's showing that part of himself to this man because he loves and he trusts him and he knows he is safe to do so. That's something else I'm feral over.)

And given how much attention was paid to the staging of Paris you will not be able to convince me that this wasn't deliberate. Matthew López himself could come into my Tumblr inbox and deny it and I wouldn't believe him.

Final post for today: I have been blessed by the thrift gods!!

Endeavour Season 1!!! And a rainbow haired Barbie!

Anyone in the doll community know what kind of hair fiber this colourful girl has?? It feels too soft to be poly. I think maybe it's nylon? I have a poly Barbie and dear god that poly hair is really something. I also have three dolls with saran, and this rainbow hair is not quite as soft as that. The hair is very swooshy, can by styled easily, doesn't sound like sandpaper when rubbed together, and does not come out when pulled on. The doll was made in China and is from 2015. A little tangled, but not bad!

EDIT: could it be kanekalon?

EDIT 2; I'm an idiot. Doll is not from 2015. She's new, from 2019!!

Need to know the fiber so I can treat the hair properly (boil wash vs conditioner wash)

I'm so rarely part of the "annoying mainstream romance/shipping girlies" that it's so alien and everytime I'm reminded of it I feel like this

[twinliches]

shoutout to the guy who after unsuccessfully hitting on my sister and being politely declined asked her "is it okay if i ask your brother instead" and when she said yes gave me a long and searching look before sighing and going "no. i am not drunk enough to go for a dude. but you look like an angel" happy bisexual pride to this man and this man only. hope you figure it out soon king

Got called pretty by a stranger twice today.

Told by someone else I “always have a great Halloween style”

Got told by 3 other people that I looked like a piece of candy corn.

Tis the season ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
