#v; i am what you made me ( the survivors verse )

[thetransgendert-rex]

I left Facebook today due to the extreme bigotry that I received there. This song was my parting post.

https://www.facebook.com/share/v/1CsVZENK2C/

I used AI song generator to add the voice & accompaniment, but the lyrics are all mine. I do not take credit for AI, as always, only for the lyrics I created.

It's called

Stitched Together

—---------------------

Intro:

I’m not a saint, I’m not a savior,

But I’ve faced my shadows, I’ve done my labor.

Ohhh, stitched together, torn and frayed,

Every scar a price I’ve paid.

Verse 1:

They tell their stories, I wear their blame,

Pointing fingers, Twisting my name.

I never claimed to be perfect,

Nor claimed to be whole,

Surviving and learning to be better,

Ooaahhh

Has always been my goal!

I’ve been the villain in their design,

But their perception isn’t mine.

Yeah, I’ve stumbled, I’ve gone astray,

But I’m more than mistakes I’ve made.

Pre-Chorus:

I’m not perfect, but I’m trying,

Every day, I keep on climbing.

Oh, oh, oh!

I own my wrongs, I wear them loud,

But they don’t own me, I’m unbowed.

Chorus:

I’m human, flawed, stitched with care,

Trauma and hope, I’m laid bare.

Not a villain, not divine,

Just a survivor on this fragile line.

Through the pressure, I won’t break,

I’ll rebuild with every ache

I know who I am; that’s my redemption,

Stitched together, with trauma and good intentions.

Verse 2:

When I've made mistakes,

I take accountability,

Even if they refuse to acknowledge or see.

When I'm wrong I’ve said “I’m sorry,”

I’ve made amends,

Ooooahh

Tried to fix the bridges burned in the end!

But I won’t crawl to soothe their hate,

I’m not the monster they create.

Flawed and human, I stand tall,

I am a survivor through it all.

Pre-Chorus:

I’m not perfect, but I’m trying,

Every day, I keep on climbing.

Oh, oh, oh!

My past is a part, not the whole,

It’s just a thread in the fabric of my soul.

Chorus:

I’m human, flawed, stitched with care,

Trauma and hope, I’m laid bare.

Not a villain, not divine,

Just a survivor on this fragile line.

Through the pressure, I won’t break,

I’ll rebuild with every ache

I know who I am; that’s my redemption,

Stitched together, with trauma and good intentions.

Bridge:

So paint me how you want, I’ll stay unafraid,

Your words can’t unravel what I’ve remade.

Every misstep, every tear,

They’re the proof that I’m still here.

I’m no saint, but I’m alive,

A survivor who will always rise.

Revised Chorus:

I’m human, flawed, stitched with pride,

A patchwork of truths I’ll never hide.

Not a villain, not divine,

Just a survivor who’ll claim what’s mine.

Oh, oh!

Through the pressure, I won’t break,

I’ll rebuild with every ache.

I know who I am; that’s my redemption,

Stitched together with trauma and good intentions.

Outro:

Torn and frayed, but still I mend,

This isn’t the start, and it’s not the end.

Ooo, I’m flawed, but I stand true,

Stitched together, just passing through.

Yeah, stitched together, every day is new.

Oh oh oh oh,

Oh oh oh oh!

Trauma and good intentions!

Oh oh oh oh,

Oh oh oh oh!

Stitched together!

Oh oh oh oh,

Oh oh oh oh!

Trauma and good…

Ahhhhhh!

Intentions, Intentions, Intentions!

Ohhh

Intentions

Ohhhhhh

Intentions

Ahhhhhh!

Intentions, Intentions, Intentions,

Ohhh

Intentions

Ohhhhhh

Intentions, Intentions!

The fatal five for character bingo? (Could be all of them as a unit or a few specific individuals)

Answering this for Brit and Mallick specifically because I AM ill about them!!

Saw V is honestly one of the best of the whole series and it is Because of the Fatal Five, but specifically Brit and Mallick that this is. The trap series encapsulates Perfectly what John's actual intended philosophy is trying to teach people when he forces them into it, and by the end both Brit and Mallick have actually learned their lesson and know why they were put in here in the first place. Hell, Mallick opens the whole thing saying he KNEW hed end up in a trap, and that makes him compelling from the start! He knows he did wrong and he feels remorse, but he's not surprised to have ended up here either way. And Brit! She doesnt put it together until the end, but when it finally sinks in for her you can tell she's actually gotten why she was put there and ultimately she becomes one of the poster children for what John was trying to accomplish with his traps all along. She wins by sacrifice all while learning her lesson too with Mallick at her side.

Now. I do have to explain here a bit: the wasted potential and the not enough screen time is more for Brit. Because you're going to tell me that she wasn't an apprentice with Lawrence at the end of Final Chapter?? Fucking really?! She's Exactly the kind of character who it would have made sense to make her into an apprentice but nope! They just forgot about her come final chapter. She's not even in the survivor meeting with Mallick and it makes me mad every single day. (This also explains the non canon spot up there because I enjoy her in an au where she Does become an apprentice in Jigsquad verse.)

Hey do you play dbd? If so fav killers and if you don't just, by the design, which one do you like?

I do not play as much Dead By Daylight as I should to be honest! I love playing the survivor side of things but am v into the killers storywise. 

Surprising literally no one, Ghostface is my favorite. 

I think they made his character so damn good and fit him into their verse perfectly. So I love the fact that no one single person is Ghostface, part of what I love so much is that it is more like a mantle different people have taken up, using that persona for their own ends, so he fits just so damn well into that! To be honest I love all the people who have been Ghostface, top three are obvious with Billy and Stu right up there. (I like Mickey and Mrs.Loomis the least. Their motivations felt weak to me even tho I love Scream 2.) 

I have considered adding him to my to-write list but am still mulling it over. And as per usual I must yell and shout out @lackingspace who has the best DBD Ghostface writing and I think how she writes and does his character is the literal best and I adore how she writes him! 

Thanks so much for the ask Anon!

Ex-Wives/Six from Six

This may seem like an odd song choice for this blog, but there is a method to this madness. I have been listening to this soundtrack ever since we saw Six. I have been walking around London, listening to this soundtrack on repeat (especially Anne of Cleves song “Get Down”). It is symbolic in a way. I had expectations of London like the food being out of this world, everywhere I looked there’d be a historic building, the people would be rude and unwelcoming to Americans, etc. These things were assumptions I made about London before I ever got here. Similarly to people assuming they know the stories of the six wives of Henry the VIII just because they were defined as his wives first and not human beings. It also goes along with the female empowerment of my thesis subject matter. Allowing women to define their own story than to be fit into a box because it’s easier for the world at large.

----------------------------------------------------------

Divorced Beheaded Died Divorced Beheaded Survived And tonight we are... Live! Listen up let me tell you a story A story that you think you've heard before We know you know our names and our fame and our faces Know all about the glories and the disgraces I'm done 'cause all this time, I've been just one word in a stupid rhyme So I picked up a pen and a microphone Histories about to get overthrown.

[queenofairandsnarkness]

Fuck, sorry, I mean ASOIAF, I was just on automatic setting. My bad!

my beautiful cinnamon roll too good for this world fave: Brienne. Just… Brienne.

my trash-shit fave: Jaime? Like, I recognize he is a dick, but he’s a dick who occasionally tries and is capable of genuine affection and introspection when whacked by fate enough, which is a really low bar to hit, but not a lot of characters hit it in this series. Also, he is fun to write.

my I love to hate them fave:  …I don’t think I have one? 

my I hate to love them fave: Lysa Tully Arryn? If only because the woman on-page versus her offpage exploits are so very, very different? (She and Catelyn made a language up! She was keeping the Vale lords dangling! You could have made a brilliant Isabeau of Bavaria style character, GRRM!)

my I wouldn’t piss on them if they were on fire non-fave:            Littlefinger? I recognize that they cut out Jeyne Poole, so the show-only fans didn’t realize that storyline was a thing, but he’s a thoroughly scummy bag of dicks without a redeeming quality.

my I didn’t care about them either way at first but the fandom makes such a big deal about them now I can’t stand them non-fave: Robb Stark? 

my I could take them or leave them kinda non-fave: Tyrion. *whistles and ducks* Look, this and #6 are pretty interchangeable.

my I will go down with this ship and I won’t put my hands up and surrender, there will be no white flag above my door. I’m in love and always will be fave ship: Sansa/Aegon? Which is a complete crackship, I’m aware, but two proud people who want to be in charge through love and respect and have obstacles to overcome? (Book Canon or my AUs, I am putting on the damn captain hat for this ship if I need to.)

my dirtybadwrong fave ship: Willas/Ellaria/Oberyn? Mind, I like it when Ellaria actually is involved, but hey!

my they’re cute together and I dig them but I’m not all that terribly invested kinda fave ship:

my I didn’t care about this ship either way at first but the fandom makes such a big deal about it now I can’t stand it non-fave ship: This is long, just FYI. …Hilariously, it isn’t so much… look. I’m not v. fond of Jon/Sansa, but I get people like it. However, Robb/Rhaenys, which is a frequent AU addition… nope. Because it frequently comes down to “Rhaenys as Cheerleader, gets rewarded by dick. OR, in the more poisonous version, Rhaenys is a bitch for what is portrayed as no reason, is made a good person through Stark dick.” Which has kept me from otherwise interesting fics, because I’ve occasionally tried anyway, and you get “Rhaenys is only interesting if tied to the Starks.” Why don’t we get Rhaenys/Edmure? Clever survivor married to Westeros’ version of soft-bro Mr. Bingley, dealing with the chaos of the Riverlands?

my MAKE IT STOP non-fave ship: Rhaegar/Lyanna? Again, show verse makes it awful by managing to sideline his v. ill, v. endangered wife even more, and the age fuckery the casting dept. did, but she was tiny! She was the age of a high-school freshman! They make notoriously shitty decisions, and I think a lot of people get so caught up in the idea of a tragic love story they don’t go and look at the nitty gritty details.

Starting a fresh post because it’s a fresh topic, really.

@hotarurea wrote: I don’t understand this glorifying of Grounders at all. I don’t particularly care for them as a group of people, I care about specific grounder characters and am looking forward to knowing them better/meeting new characters who seem interesting but I don’t see the need for Bellamy to gain any respect for their culture or leaders because they constantly deny him or his people that respect back. 

And the topic is. I think I’m getting a new tumblr crush! Which allows me to spew on one of my obsessions. Behind the cut, for kindness.

 That gif set that goes ‘round periodically, the one with Lincoln yelling at Clarke ‘you people are so soft!’.....  you know that one?

Its popularity, that the scene even exists, is one of the elements that simultaneously confirms the line reading - that the Arkers are soft, and the Grounders are hardened survivors - and at the same time presents the Grounders as a monolithic, unquestioning, unobservant whole. I mean “You people!!!” ..... how many tragic stories start that way?

(Setting aside the general silliness of the line which is lifted from 1,000,000,001 stories from all media - professional and amatuer - about the moment when the civilized (white usually) lady meets the savage (man usually), and then she ‘proves’ her toughness with some suitably bloody act.... Okay. S1 had. Issues. Mmkay. Moving on.)

But S1 absolutely set up a dynamic where the Grounders assume that after one look at people who don’t wear scraps of leather quilted together with lots of buckles and raggedy bits of badly tanned fur - that they know all there is to know about them, and that they must be ‘soft.’ Lincoln’s line only made it text.

Lincoln does this despite having watched these kids nearly from the moment they stumbled blinking out into the sun. And then they lost Jasper - and then they WENT BACK TO GET HIM. Knowing full well by then that they were facing human enemies that they couldn’t see who wanted to kill them. Then they hauled Jasper’s ass back to their ship to save him. And then they tortured Lincoln (!!) for information about how to save their friend.

Meanwhile they also started hunting successfully, harvesting, building walls and shelters, stripped their ship for usuable parts, created weapons, tents, tools, water basins, cooking utensils, smoking huts, all of it from everything avilable to them using information and skills they already possessed (Charles Pike? Was a fucking GOOD teacher... maybe he really did win that election on his own merits, and not just because people were upset with Kane)...

But still our writers had Lincoln - and all the Grounders he was giving voice to in that instant - look at these disciplined, knowledgable, resilient, tough as nails kids and dismiss them as “soft.”

Because the narrative the show runners were contsructing required it, because they were - intentionally or not - falling back on Settlers v. Indians as their primary source of dramatic tension. 

And the show runners have continued this in every season since. They have never allowed the Grounders to display the slightest curiosity about the Ark, or its survivors. They have never allowed them to ask a single question about their lives before  (on screen). Vs. Kane or Octavia or Clarke or Jaha, to whom they have given an earnest desire to learn everything they can about their new neighbors. 

A curioustiy the writers then had their Grounders disdain and dismiss as a weakness at every opporutnity (by beating the crap out of any questioner at every opportunity) -- because the writers have trapped the Grounders in stasis, in an unchanging bubble built a few years after the catasrophe and never once allowed to alter thereafter -- despite the decades and generations passing since that moment. Because -- in the end, they are still writing Settlers v. Indians, no matter how complex the polity they’ve now allowed the Grounders to have, it’s still an unchanging monolith built on stasis and rejection of any new information/conditions.

This narrative structure - Settlers v. Indians - isn’t the whole of the story, of course. It’s more like a ...... (flails for a phrase) an undertow, sometimes a riptide - but it’s not on the surface, it’s not “the PLOT” per se.

Because, of course, among other things, we already know - thanks to the same writers - from the split focus of S1, that it’s really fucking hard to live in space. The Arkers are - in fact - a preposterously scary bunch of very tough people. 

But the narrative has had this really weird dualism thing going on from teh start. The Grounders are presented as scary, but not the Arkers. When it’s the Arkers, in terms of straight up onscreen body count, who are BY FAR the MOST HORRIFYING BUNCH OF INTENTIONAL KILLERS we’ve ever met in this story ‘verse. 

And yet in dialogue, and in the way the people of the Ark are regarded and treated by the ‘savage’ ‘revenge is a dish best served hot and steamy’ ‘have a little crucifixion and torture with your lunch’ Grounders, or by the vampires at Mt. Weather who just want to eat them ..... almost no one inside the show who opposes the Ark has been allowed to be at all aware of just how often their clocks are cleaned by these people whom they hold in contempt as soft and weak.

Even though they actually gave Bellamy a line about this very thing! And very late in the game, Indra appears to be noticing the obvious. Roan too, I think, though he hasn’t had an explicit acknolwedgement in dialogue yet. (And there is an argument to be made that Nia understood, at least dimly, when she went after the resources the Arkers were still exploiting from the Mountain...)

And that expressed attitude (contempt for the Arkers) on the part of the Grounders and the Mt. Weather vampires - that attitude has often been adopted by many fans to explain that it is the Arkers who were/are at this really mammothly huge disadvangate with regard to the peoples they meet on earth. (Their small number is of course a problem, but it’s just about their only problem in terms of spec’ing out who will come out on top. All they really need is a few key ‘native’ allies, and they’re golden, basically. If you use European colonization of the New World as a guide...)

Which leaves me at a bit of a loss when it comes to deciding what the show runners are intending - am I supposed to believe my eyes or my ears?

Because both/and - the usual approach - doesn’t really make much sense in this case. The Arkers are weak and stupid and a supreme disadvantage - AND - in the last six months of universe time, they’ve killed more people - intentionally! - by themselves! - than the rest of them put together. My ears tell me they are weak and out of their depth. My eyes tell me the Arkers are truly righteous mother fuckers when it comes to dealing death and surviving on the run.

In the end, I’ve settled on the idea that - as the writers have written the Grounders in this way, as savage, as violent, as uncompromising, as blood thirsty, as collectively stupidly unobservant - unique and lovely individual Grounders whom I desperately want to survive notwithstanding (!!!) - I can only follow their lead. 

Therefore, for me, the Grounders are - as a whole - a hot mess and I don’t care that their manifestly horrible society is ending. It was rotten and fragile and of course it will/has broken in the face of incontrovertible new evidence that everything they have ever believed about their world was bullshit built on lies. 

*I* didn’t do this to them. Their creators did. 

I’m simply taking them as presented to me. 

And as presented to me, Bellamy owes the Grounders - as a polity, as a whole - jack shit. They have set out to eliminate him and his people from the day the 100 fell to earth, fleeing their dying home. They are his enemies. Full Stop.

Now, in story, the Grounders have a very stark choice. Suck it up and work with the Ark and (maybe) survive, or don’t and die. I hope my individual favs choose to work with them. I hope most of the rest will get on board in time (though I suspect they won’t be written that way, the show runners appear to like using large numbers of off-screen death as a short hand for ‘really fucking serious problem’) because they don’t deserve to die merely for being closed minded and having had very bad leadership for generations. But in no way do I think Bellamy, or any of the rest of the surviving remant of the Ark, need to ‘learn to respect’ the Grounders. It’s the other way around, at this point.

And weridly? I suspect that this is the story my eyes will continue to indicate is being told, whatever my ears hear. Because... we all know the end of Settlers v. Indians, right? Settlers win. Indians, mostly die or are expelled, and a very very few choose to assimilate and adapt. And that riptide is ... very very strong.

Oh my god! What the hell's going on over there that would make them want to come here?? Three people came here, one kinda by accident sure but like... Really? We are a sweet ass tribe but like... Really? It's like someone from London moving to come ' little town ' with only 7000 people there. Something doesn't fit. I don't like it. 

RTP

Ok so we won the challenge which was awesome. I was the only one on my tribe not going to the labyrinth so fuck me eh. i feel pretty good with my ol boys alliance of matt david me and owen. hopefully we can stick it out for a while

then two people quit from odysseus and im like yasssss more ppl gone....and then there is a mutiny. i wanted to mutiny so bad just for the drama, but no one else from my tribe wanted to do it and im not gonna be the dumbass that mutinies by myself...nuh uh..... and then three people from olympus ended up on odysseus...haha omg wtf...im shocked trevor went to lydia and not to me and owen...hmm....im sus of that so now we have this reward challenge...and i make a totally normal comment like...oh hey maybe the people competing should have good survivor knowledge since the challenge is ya know...guessing survivor contestants...and duncan is like YOU DONT NEED TO KNOW SURVIVOR TO WIN THIS....like hun....drink some chamomile and take a chill pill....no technically you dont...but it sure as hell makes it easier....i guess duncan is my first target on this tribe if we lose again....whatever...bye

ROB

Yikes I doubt I made one last round. I'm basically going to rely on my Bangladesh people. I love Logan and Eddie, so they're the perfect people to work with. I like Colin too, I just need to talk to him more. Two people quit and there was a mutiny offer afterwards. Three people from my tribe mutinied when we were literally dominating challenges, sort of. We hadn't lost yet. Trevor, Sam, and Isaac were people I was wary of, so I know that I can't trust them at all since they're obviously not wanting to work with me. I know I'm not talking much, but still. Reward is basically going to rely on me since Logan and Colin aren't well-versed in Survivor and Eddie is MIA. Rip me. If we lose immunity, I feel like Colin will be the person leaving. He's literally the odd man out. Don't know if he knows it. Hopefully, at least, and in my mind. Sorry Colin. I'm screwed.

COLIN

I think I've written more confessionals for the first three rounds of this game than I did for all of PI: Malibu. Oops. But anyway.... that mutiny WHEW. Fuck those guys huh. We went from the ONLY tribe with all 7 members to......... 4 members. I knew Trevor was leaving and I lowkey had a feeling Sam and Isaac MIGHT but still for them all three to leave is such a kick in the face. That alliance between me, Logan, and Trevor lasted not even 24 hours. Not even ONE DAY yall. Hopefully we can slay these next two immunities so we don't have to go to tribal, because that would honestly suck. At least Logan and I have half the vote so that makes me feel a little bit safer, but still without majority and with the possibility of a rock draw/fire making challenge (idk how it would work if it ties) this could be devastating to my game. Anyway, thanks Trevor, you fucked over the person who trusted you the most.

ROB

Hosts are furious.

Immunity went well, bless. At least I hope so.

COLIN THIS IS MY OFFICIAL APPLICATION TO JOIN THE LOGAN FAN CLUB.

Y'all don't even know how much I love Logan. Like I am so glad I got put on a tribe with them and actually got kinda close with them. They're such a sweetheart and so easy to talk to. They are WINNING this season KNOW that. Literally my entire tribe is so cute and sweet now?? Now that the uglies and traitors have left we're all cute and adorable. God I really just hope we don't have to go to tribal at all before the swap. If I have to vote anyone on this tribe I'll cry.

ROB I think I've become the leader of the tribe. I don't want to be, but Eddie is barely here and I don't think Logan and Colin would step up to do challenges and stuff. I like everyone in the tribe and I don't want to lose these immunity challenges. The mutineers will be the first to die. Lying sucks, I'm not positive if I said yet if Sam told me he was NOT going to mutiny.

Ok so heres a pre-immunity results confessional. so my Ye Ol' Boys Club alliance is going pretty well. it doesnt seem like we are gonna be best friends but we all know its good for numbers and after that first tribal we trust each other. so that seems good for now. and knowing that we are swapping in two rounds is keeping us all from doing anything shady so that when we swap we dont have to worry about each other turning on us. that being said.... in our foursome i feel like i naturally get along with owen the best...hes the easiest for me to talk to...granted i feel pretty comfortable with all three of them....but matt just gave me some tea about the labyrinth and told me that he wasnt telling owen or david. now i have known matt for a long time and i was there for his matt fucking summers days....but i know matt has grown and thats not how he plays anymore but that reputation will never go away...there is a trick to keeping matt on your side....treat him with respect and trust what he says....if youve been friendly and honest with him he will do the same to you...and the second you question or belittle him youre as good as shit because he is already plotting your demise...hmm...treat someone with respect what a concept huh. not only that, but this makes me feel like i have a good #1 ally with matt and a good #1 ally with david. as much as i love owen i know damn well hell turn on me before trevor...and i wouldnt hold that against him...hes a good ally for numbers rn...and it helps in case i swap with trevor and can stick with him too....but i feel more secure knowing i have david and matt on my side and they are closer with me than with owen....i dont really wanna lose...but voting duncan out rn would feel pretty good...hes made some snarky comments to me a couple of times and thats really my biggest criteria for wanting people out....you sass me you get my vote

COLIN

OMG YES WE DID THAT. ok why am I saying we. ROB DID THAT. HE TRULY DID. MY DAD MY KING MY ICON LOVE HIM. Omg I'm so happy we don't have to go to tribal. Now we just gotta survive ONE MORE ROUND before the swap, I'm sure we can pull it off. Wish us luck <3 <3

The plan for tonight is Crow... I feel like all is going to plan, as far as I know everyone has told me they're voting Crow, bar Ryan (whose told other members of my alliance that he is) and Scott the Silent. I just lied to Crow, and feel bad, but he seems too dangerous... Also, my alliance is now me, JD, Trevor and Lydia, but I'm also close to Isaac and Sam. I feel super in control for now... I for some reason get the impression I'm about to be idoled out, but c'est la vie

TREVOR AND LYDIA

I'm super nervous for tonight. Its like 'Baby's First Blindside'- its very exciting! Anywho, I love my 'The Leal Jousewives of Atlanta' alliance (Trevor,JD,Lydia and I) and I'd hate to be idoled out, when I'm lined up so well! :(

CROW

Ugh, I have a gut feeling that it's probably me tonight, but I have been told otherwise.......lesson learned: don't try and play two games at once xD I am voting for Scott because I know he's the person most likely (behind me) to get targeted/exiled from the tribe. My strategy (although it may look like I don't have one) was to test out the "Anybody but me" strategy, but it doesn't look too good right now... Maybe I'm just paranoid and it'll be 8-1 against Scott, but I have a feeling there's scheming going on that will likely result in my elimination. If I survive this, I pray there's a tribe swap so I can effectively redo my social game LOL, if not, well.....I'll just have to scrap along!
