Pedro Pascal was my Biology teacher and for today’s project I had to go out and collect plants from a list he had given me. I went to the farmers’ market where they were having sales on plants and fish and stuffed animals and I kept getting distracted and losing the bag I was supposed to fill up. I was running out of time and rushed to him, but when I gave him the bag, it was just filled with green apple slices, something that wasn’t even on the list.

older Snape fans, what are your oldest works like?
i’m curious 🤭
found the old display book where i stored my second (and longest)(and unfinished) fanfic and i’ll have you know the highlight was Severus stabbing a dragon in the throat with a poisoned dagger to save Hogwarts, in front of everyone 🙌🏻
he was able to jump on the dragon because he had ✨angel wings✨
black covered in ebony feathers, of course 🖤
and every chapter had deep poetic introductory quotes bc i was a dramatic teenager.

"The best calumnies are spiced with truth," suggested Qavo, "but the girl's true sin cannot be denied. This arrogant child has taken it upon herself to smash the slave trade, but that traffic was never confined to Slaver's Bay. It was part of the sea of trade that spanned the world, and the dragon queen has clouded the water. Behind the Black Wall, lords of ancient blood sleep poorly, listening as their kitchen slaves sharpen their long knives. Slaves grow our food, clean our streets, teach our young. They guard our walls, row our galleys, fight our battles. And now when they look east, they see this young queen shining from afar, this breaker of chains. The Old Blood cannot suffer that. Poor men hate her too. Even the vilest beggar stands higher than a slave. This dragon queen would rob him of that consolation." (Tyrion VI, ADWD)
Should you reach your queen, give her a message from the slaves of Old Volantis." She touched the faded scar upon her wrinkled cheek, where her tears had been cut away. "Tell her we are waiting. Tell her to come soon." (Tyrion VII, ADWD)
I appreciate how George explicitly makes the point that slavery isn't just about the economic aspect and that it is, at its root, built on subjugation. Even the people who don't directly benefit from it will fight to keep the system in place just so they have someone beneath them. That's why all the criticisms of Dany not replacing the economy before abolishing slavery fall flat, because that wouldn't have worked either. The slavers would've fought to enforce slavery regardless because they enjoyed the power and privilege it granted them. We also get insight onto the slaves thoughts on Dany's revolution, which makes it feel like this perspective is only coming from the consideration of the slavers and not the people actually being subjugated. The slaves want to be free, they want Dany to free them, and that shouldn't have to wait until the people who think of them as property decide it's acceptable.

what if even tho sy is just an assistant sometimes disciples ask him questions bc he's weirdly well read for some dude who just spawned in one day and he'll just Answer shit if it's innocent enough. how does x demon fight? where would you find y monster? and his little hyper fixation brain just rears its head. just a weirdly helpful little scrunkly
RIIIIIGHT RIGHT RIGHT RIGHT. to the disciples hes just this guy that their shizun keeps around that knows weird obscure facts. disciples go to him like hes their personal xianxia google. i think it would be REALLLLYY funny if when sy realized his position in the sect hed be like "oh god im failing these kids. they need moral support they need 3 meals a day they need to know what kind of plant they can use to ward off Six Legged Snow Panthers" or smth like that. im not sure hes in a good headspace to really figure out how to take care of kids actually

Doodles of @lune-redd's other adorable Fankiddos, from left to right, Britt, Beauty, and Berry.
Check out their work, seriously. They have such nice designs and they capture the Powerpuff girl art style past the "Puff".

thinking about how much worse it is for patricia when she finds those messages in season 3 because in season 1 she was completely gaslit by everyone around her. they told her everything was fine, and she felt like she couldn't trust anyone. and then she was proven right.
so in s3, when eddie, a person who has pretty much fully earnt her trust, consistently tells her everything is fine and that he's not cheating on her (because, whaddya know, he isn't), and then she once again believes she's been proven right? that must have absolutely crushed her and taken her right back to two years ago, to being lied to and gaslit. no wonder that was what made her a sinner.
