#and now I am obsessed with that universe

[lenaellsi]

if i have to read any variation of the sentiment "crowley doesn't care about the world, he only cares about himself and aziraphale" with my only human eyes ever again i will not be responsible for my actions

#GET WELL SOON! #anyway crowley loves wine and cars and music and plants and the stars and the earth and humanity #he is so full of love for the universe that the thought of god ending it all was enough to make him FALL FROM HEAVEN! #he's obsessed with aziraphale i will not deny it but aziraphale is NOT the ONLY THING HE LOVES!! #the idea that he wanted to fuck off forever without even TRYING to save the world is bad interpretation of the scene. sorry. #crowley: you can't leave this bookshop #everyone for some reason: wow i can't believe he wants to leave the earth right now immediately forever #just because he doesn't want to WORK WITH THE GUYS TRYING TO END THE WORLD. #good omens #gos2 spoilers #crowley #good omens meta #who proposed saving the world in the first place. who tempted aziraphale into it. i am so

This is a rant, an oddly specific, very unnecessary Radio Silence rant

Okay so we all remember that one tumblr post in Radio Silence in which a user talked about how privileged and rude Aled was for criticizing the education system and not wanting to go to university

This post - and I know it's not real, I know the person who wrote it doesn't exist - makes me so mad every. Single. Time.

Like have you ever thought about the fact that some people are simply not made for university, some people are just fucking miserable when they're - yk - stuck in university, i mean having the privilege of being able to choose if you want to go to university also means having the privilege of being able to not go

Also just because you have the privilege of being able to go to university doesn't mean you can't criticize a system that is so obviously shit, like i'm sorry, but even as someone who actually kinda enjoys university i 100% think that we not only have the right, but also responsibility to criticize when we see deficiencies or problems in the education system

And what kind of weird whataboutism is this "You don’t want to go to university, because you know it would make you miserable and think that the education system is deeply flawed? Well what about people that can't go to university at all, you privileged prick? How dare you not want to be miserable for at least the next 3 years of your life!!!!" Like i'm sorry but that’s so idiotic i can't even

Just because you CAN go to university doesn't mean you have to, the privilege is that you have the choice, that it's your decision

#radio silence #radio silence alice oseman #universe city #aled last #frances janvier #carys last #raine sengupta #osemanverse #aled and daniel #alice oseman #stuck in universe city #this is so annoying to me even tho it’s not real #but fr now Aled is so right about criticizing the education system #also i would be so obsessed with universe city #okay lets be real i am obsessed with universe city #anyway rant over

Ouch.

Transcript under the cut

Ten: Let me out! Let me out, Lost, do you hear me! Anya! Anya! Hello? Ten: Hellooooo? (echoing) Lost (as ten): Hello. Ten: Gah. Oh, Marvelous. Why is it that when everything hits rock bottom I end up talking to myself? Lost Ten: I thought it a good idea to take the appearance of one you’re more likely to listen to. Ten: Ouch. Am I really that egocentric? Lost Ten: Yes, Doctor, you are. And your willingness to sacrifice your life is more vanity than true selflessness. Ten: Don’t try that one on me. Lost Ten: I am not lying though, am I?

#I'm obsessed with this series right now #the doctor: well I've lost all my friends but here I am vibing #the universe: woe time war trauma be upon ye #tenth doctor audios #paradox posts #dalek universe #tenth doctor

Listen I know it was forever ago but what if after lesson 16, whenever the brothers mention how much MC reminds them of Lilith Mc is like, “Who?”

They’re grateful for what she did and honestly I love the thought of them being the only one to see her ghost and they’re besties but like

This is to piss the brothers off and stop them from comparing. They can talk about her. But not compare. Lilith supports this and does not want her greatx70 grandchild to be a walking memory.

#also in this universe it takes a little while for things to go back to normal #this is coming from someone who’s favorite is Belphie #give me the angst give me the trauma that definitely isn’t a mask for my own #give me the extreme guilt that Belphie feels and that slowly turning into an obsessive love for MC #give me all that toxic shit #I’ve been wanting this for idk how many years now #nothing has truly scratched this itch #and I unfortunately don’t have the motivation to start another series #I am planning on adding another chapter for my current one though it’s been to long #but yeah I’m still not over it #and that’s ok #maybe #kinda #no not really #obey me #obey me shall we date #obey me belphegor

Wahhhhhh

The tldr is my boss couldn't go to this meeting today so I got sent to represent our archive, and I was the only archivist there in a group of professors and PhD students (whose research is tangentially related to the contents of the archive) and I'm just ahhhh

On the one hand, it was great, sitting around a table talking research for a few hours over lunch, it's all the best parts of grad school seminars and I've missed having those kinds of discussions IMMENSELY and it feels like a missing piece of myself has been returned. Even just from mostly listening for the duration.

On the other hand. The sense of imposter syndrome not being a Real Academic. And the sense of loss and regret. Yes yes I didn't go for my PhD because health, finances, awful job prospects for classicists. But I LOVED grad school. I love my MA and learning and studying and being a student. I miss it terribly, even though I'm good at and enjoy my profession.

Even had health/finances not been a concern, I'd never have been able to decide on a focused research topic for a dissertation. My interests are too broad. They're not even limited to classics. I'm bouncing between life changing academic interests constantly, and each one is foundational and obsessive, in its own way. I joked to Atlas this week that I was supposed to be born a foppish renaissance dilettante, but it's not even really a joke.

I know. I KNOW. My unlived lives aren't real. They shouldn't haunt me. The me that exists is de facto the best version of me because it's the ONLY me that exists. And life doesn't have to be perfect it just has to be Good. And it is good. But also. Why can't I be a full-time student just learning, never having to publish, but also an archivist and information professional, but also a mutual aid volunteer and praxis oriented person, and Also have time for hobbies like crafting and novel reading and video games, and things like cooking and gardening and strength training.

I'm aware that harmonizing and coming to peace with the multitudinous aspects of the self is the work of a lifetime but also I want it to happen /now/

#the duality of fran #your probably asking. fran. can you got THREE DAYS without the navel gazing obsession with your own selfhood and realization as a person #and without obsessing about the purpode and telos and fulfillment of ur own existence #the answer is. no ❤️ #ahhh itll be ok im just. boooooo reminded of all the things i try not to think abt #life is so short! life is so long! #i am so tired. too tired for even a fraction of the life i want to live #yknow the usual typical person who didnt think they would live this long and would definitely kms before this #so now its like. i gotta learn to live. i have to find out what i want. and the answer is apparently. i want everything #yes its part pride and ambition #but its also wonder and joy and awe and curiosity #why do i have to pick ONE thing. where there is SO much out there #life is too short for all the marvels of the universe #and i am too much a dilettante for it all #oh it is a good world and good life #some days i am just. afraid of the hunger for it all

ever heard of hardtack?

no? well.

this stuff was so full of worms—and so stiff—that soldiers in the american civil war had to dump it in boiling pork fat to soften in. and when they did that, usually a bunch of little worms and critters come spilling out of this little bread brick, and they mix it up and make a slurry with their rock bread and boiled bugs. it consistently caused stomach and diarrhea issues among soldiers fighting then.

so. headcanon time!!

warriors, when he served in the army, used to eat hardtack rations like this. (wild did too, because that stuff lasts forever and it’s cheap af and could reasonably still be used in his time, but whether or not he remembers eating it is up for debate). so after all that disgusting tooth-breaking food rations, he’s always grateful to have a cooked meal, even if it’s a bit concerning like hyrule’s er…soup.

it’s a bit extreme and a but unusual to the others, but having to eat those awful “long lasting” foods for months on end made warriors incredibly conscious of the quality meals he ate each day, and he always makes sure to go out of his way to express his thanks to whoever cooks no matter what. it’s rather wholesome, especially after wild gets confused by warrior’s continued (and somewhat overbearing) thanks and the two of them end up talking and getting closer as warriors explains everything to wild

#i hear a friend studyinf history talk about this once #and now i’m obsessed #projecting it onto warriors #but seriously if you’re curious about this stuff like i suddebly am go research it #this stuff is actually crazy #also hilarious because it really did give whole military corps a chronic case of the shits #it’s so fascinating #linked universe #lu warriors #not a quote #(can you tell i ran out of quotes for now? i’m scavenging for content)

gee, tsumugi! how come team danganronpa let you have THREE protagonists??

or as i like to call this drawing "i needed everyone to know that yeah sure i ship them, but also i find the fact that v3 has three characters who are all protagonists in their own separate ways really interesting and i think it's a fun parallel and they're a cool trio. also what if they kissed though"

#danganronpa #danganronpa v3 #kaede akamatsu #shuichi saihara #kiibo #saiibomatsu #this isn't even ship art DSKFHJKHF i just.... th.. Them........ #danganronpa v3 spoilers #?? #i am like Obsessed with all of v3's metanarrative stuff going on it's so fun #like i already tend to like main protagonist characters and in all the dr games Especially this one it like............ means something #it's a literal Title for them & i like the contrast between kaede & kiibo being actual protagonists in-universe vs #shuichi who's only kinda the protagonist to the player #kaede & kiibo both lost themselves to the game and their roles & paid the price with their lives and shuichi ended it for good bc he was #never put in that protagonist box (tm) intending to fill that role in the story #something something cogs in the machine they couldn't step out of it even if they wanted to....... #as soon as kaede becomes the blackened she passes the role on to someone else. & as soon as kiibo defies the audience he loses his free will #THATS JUST MY TAKE ON IT ANYWAY #also i think i'm forever cursed to draw every protag from anything with an ahoge now #like i just do it without even thinking. smh

Malia is trying to be nice, but she’s not good at it. She doesn’t really remember how to be. The Remake got rid of the puncture wounds in her thigh where the bear trap got her, smoothed out her hair until it was no longer matted to her head, scrubbed her skin raw and clean, but it couldn’t fix the way she didn’t feel right in her body anymore. She became something else, in there, something wild and terrified. Somewhere in that arena, Malia forgot how to be human. Now she’s just an animal in a girl’s skin. Empathy is a lot to ask for from something like her.

(Malia is the youngest victor in Hunger Games history. Now she has to live with it.)

#teen wolf #malia tate #ev writes #remember when i was obsessed with those tua and st thg crossovers. because i still kind of am <3 #HOPEFULLY there will be more to come malia's just the only character i have figured out in this universe #and i've been sitting on this for months now so. yay <3

ok while i’m ignoring the fact that i have a 9am lecture in six hours does anyone want to listen to me rant about nanowrimo

#so. last year i decided to do it very last minute with zero planning #it was not a good story but i had a lot of fun writing it and!! i actually finished it!! #this year i have planned a story. i have a plot. i have characters that i like. i have themes and settings and all that jazz #but i kinda just want to abandon it and work on an older project!! which is very annoying #the older project is part of a whole damn universe i’ve been developing the past few years. i am Obsessed obsessed with everything abt it #it’s very close to my heart and i really want to make something of it! and i don’t think i’m a competent enough writer to do it justice atm #also if i abandon my current nano project i highly doubt i will ever actually write it #which would be a shame because i like it! it’s a story i would have liked to read when i was like fourteen fifteenish #and tbh would still like to read now #i think actually writing it would be good practice! and i know i would enjoy it #when have i ever not enjoyed anything featuring magic time travel and lesbians. like honestly #i don’t think it’d take long for me to start writing the older project after nanowrimo either #i have a tendency to get stuck in brainstorming hell but i know how it ends. which makes everything much easier to sort #also if i don’t write something featuring the love of my life maria soon i think she will physically claw her way out of my brain #so there’s that <3 #morganposting #nano 2023 #now thats a scary tag to be using

catie hello :))) roman empire seb nando au?? saw the sketch you made during suzuka & would love to hear your thoughts!! <3

Aaaah Claire hello!!!! I think you're talking about this one, right?

I joked in the tags "Hadrian and Antonius who?????"so I guess that would be the basis??? Seb is a favorite lover of Fernando's and when he dies, Fernando deifies him 😥

This Seb is obv from a different au, but this would be how I'd vizualize them:

#GODDDDDDD ALTERNATE UNIVERSE - AGE CHANGE #could you imagine Aston Fernando with Toro Rosso Seb?????????? 🫠 #but Fernando would be like an older emperor whos very settled in his rule #and then this little twink comes out of nowhere and he falls for him #and then seb dies(retires) and fernando misses him so much AAAGGHHHH #sorry idk if you intended this ask to be made angsty but now it is :) #im just so obsessed with how fernando acted during the last few months of seb's career #hes used to this common presence in his life and he doesnt think too deeply about it #in au: hes had many lovers. how could this one be any different? #but then when its taken from him. thats the moment when he realizes just how important it was #in this au younger seb would revitalize him ig!! #hes a young senator and fernando sees himself in him #and wants to take care of him and treat him like he never was sob sob sob #anyways uh yeah yes those are my thoughts :) i am too tragic today #sorry i domt know why i always put all my deepest ideas and thoughts in the tags ajdkkf #catie.asks. #catie.rambling.txt #vettonso
