Okay so I was tagged by @tananaphone, @synobun, and @carrotblr for this and it took me a hot minute to get this done but here we go!
Rules: Pick nine characters in media that you feel represent you in some way.
We have GLaDOS from Portal - I have never identified so much with a computer and/or a villain so much
Eda from The Owl House for REASONS (brain is completely rewired)
Katara from Avatar: The Last Airbender
Moiraine from The Wheel of Time (New Spring Changed me)
Samantha Carter from Stargate SG-1
Twilight Sparkle from My Little Pony
Rory from The Gilmore Girls
Temperance Brennan from Bones
Triss from Witcher (games more than other media but...)

Ok no I do have to make it it’s own post bc I don’t remember the book’s scene in detail but Annabeth seeing the fates cut a string at the arch is so fascinating. Bc we know that’s Luke’s string. He’s not dying soon, but it’s been decided when he will die.
The moment the fates decide that Luke will die and when is right after Percy sacrifices himself. Right after he shows Annabeth his care and loyalty. That she is worth saving. That she doesn’t deserve the wrath intended for her. A set of dominoes has just been toppled and when they all finally fall, she will stand between Luke and Percy and choose Percy. From this moment, from this early on, Luke’s fate is sealed.
The maths fandom is wild. “Real” and “imaginary” numbers? I think you mean canon and non-canon. You guys seriously go “this is my number oc his name is i and he is the square root of -1” when in numbers canon lore it’s actually impossible to square root a negative but sure whatever. “Complex numbers”? I think you mean a character x oc ship. “f(x) = 3x - 5”? That is self-insert fanfiction.
both the avatars we've seen so far are such cringefail losers. mr “i cuddle people to death and will break down the moment someone says i'm not scary” needles and mx “i changed my entire wardrobe and aesthetic as soon as i realized i had the power to wreak chaos, but i gave up my spooky artifact the moment i witnessed one really gorey consequence and died immediately afterward” whatever-their-name-is.
The AO3 search/filtering system has just ruined me for every other search function ever. I genuinely go onto websites, click 'advanced search' and then look at what paltry options they've given me in utter horror. How does anyone find anything? How do people survive?
I've always been curious to know this about the people around me. Most people have been in severe pain, but in my experience few have had what they would say is their 10/10 experience. I guess it's just something I find fascinating, as I had my 10/10 experience quite young and I sometimes forget that not everyone has. In my opinion it changes your relationship with pain and how you engage with it afterwards. If you answered yes, feel free to elaborate on your circumstances in the tags!
Periodic reminder that unless a person specifically and clearly tells you it is okay to tell others they are trans or queer, you should err on the side of caution and assume they do not want you to tell people (especially random people!) about their transness or queerness.
You have no idea, generally, why somebody doesn't talk openly about their trans or queer status, and you have no idea, truly, how somebody might react to that information. The most progressive person out there is still capable of harbouring incredibly negative thoughts about somebody's queer status.
