the love story being so central to our flag means death really is mindblowing. i haven’t stopped thinking about it for months. it is, to its core, a romance. that was the point. the queer romance wasn’t written in in the second or third season because the fandom picked up on the homoeroticism and made a ship popular. it wasn’t added in because the fans demanded it or because the actors pushed for it later on it wasn’t forced into slowburn by a network it was there the whole time.
when stede showed ed his secret closet that was on purpose an allegory, when they shared the marmalade bread that was romantic intentionally, when they rowed away from the burning party boat and ed was looking at stede that was him FALLING IN LOVE . that's how it was WRITTEN. ed really actually leaned in and almost kissed stede in the moonlight scene. and then. they actually kissed! like i know this is months old news now but i can’t get over how fucking different this feels to other queer romances i’ve seen. it is the core and central plot of the show and it’s beautiful. it’s funny it’s cute it’s heartwarming it’s GOOD. they did it.

I figured out what's been bothering me about Malbonte and I think it's the fact that they kiiiinda forgot to give him a personality? I mean really, what is he like, as a person, other than dark and sexy and having a sad childhood? I even sided with him in HS1, so he supposedly got everything he wanted and had 10 years of relatively happy carefree life. And yet in the beginning of HS2 he just seems vaguely irritated at everything all the time. Does he have anything he likes in life? Like, any hobbies? Or does he just think about vengeance and brood in his free time? Hell if I know.

Thank you very much for the tag! @illarian-rambling
OC Questionnaire
My questions:
What is your shower routine?
Do you like makeup?
Is there any scent you associate a strong memory with?
I think I’m gonna go with Cricket because she’s the only character I’ve posted about so far but March’s character profile is going to be posted today and I’m super excited!
1) What is your shower routine?
“I follow the standard routine outlined by healthline.com. I would use a routine suggested by the CDC, however, I looked and they do not have one.”
2) Do you like makeup?
“Not necessarily. I use eyeliner and chapstick on a daily basis. I save the rest for special occasions but I never do anything beyond a natural look.”
3) Is there any scent you associate a strong memory with?
“Green tea leaves. My mother once read my tea leaves and told me I would grow up to do big things. I was naive and believed her but she was a phony psychic at a carnival so I take it with a grain of salt these days.”
I’ll tag @arrowmoose , @mundanemoongirl , and @yourpenpaldee I also encourage whoever wants to play to go for it too.
Your questions:
Are you spiritual at all?
Do you want children? If so how many?
What’s your favorite memory?

hey y’all!! this is just a quick life update!
i know, ive gone mia again for a lil bit. i know, we’re all waiting on the continuation of evangeline’s story. it’s coming!!
a couple of weeks ago, the cat distribution system decided i was going to be the next recipient of, you guessed it, a stray cat! one who keeps clawing at my front door, waiting for her breakfast in the morning, and sits on the porch with me at night for some snuggles.
right now, i’m in the process of getting her safely inside and into the “quarantine room” to keep her separate from my other pets while she adjusts. my two other cats have been scratching at the front door from the inside and meowing at me to let her in already lmao. my dogs have loved every animal, especially cats, they come in contact with, so no worries there. she’ll be quarantined mainly so my cats can get used to her smell under the door and all and avoid as much conflict as possible.
she’s got a hideaway bed, a covered litter box, food/water bowls, a scratching post (since she won’t have the concrete), catnip, calming anti-stress treats, a monkey toy, and a whole lotta love waiting just for her inside. as soon as she’s in, i’ll be setting up a vet appointment to make sure she’s okay and get her shots done, get some flea treatment on her to be safe.
idk how long this little girl has been outside for, but the weather has gotten REALLY nasty up here lately, with heavy rains, flash floods, thunder and lightning and SO much wind. she’s a fighter. i’m excited for her to realize she doesn’t have to fight anymore and gets to spend the rest of her life relaxing and eating good and being loved on so much it’s annoying.
i probably will still be a lil inactive for a bit, but i’ll still be here!! lurking 👁️🫦👁️
so yeah, that’s my life right now!! i’ll still like and repost stuff, i just won’t have anything new from me and my stories for a little bit while i get through this transitional period. thank you for sticking around with me tho i love y’all😭😭
i’ll try and get kitty pics when i can😎

One More Time (With Feeling)
March Liu is a broke artist who wants love more than anything but can’t seem to hold onto a relationship because he’s trans and ace. Then a friend introduces him to Chayton, a free-spirited street artist, they get along like a house on fire, one thing leads to another, and suddenly March realizes he has a crush on someone absolutely unattainable. Again. But the closer March gets to Chayton, the less he seems to actually know. When Chayton’s biggest secret spills out in an argument, they have to take a break, and March isn’t sure they even have a friendship left anymore, much less potential for anything else.
Period Dramatic Romance (nebulous early 2000s). M/M M/F/NB With five bisexual main characters, one transgender male lead, one transgender female secondary character, and one nonbinary secondary character.

Screwball and mothball are NERDS. mothball commits treason for his special interest in love magic. Screwball exclusively watches wild Kratts on the big ass 80" flat screen HD quality tv in the house of discord. Mothball keeps trying to pretend he's logical and regal but he's actually insane. Screwball is soft and reassuring. She uses pride to pretend she isn't insecure. Mothball is a people-pleaser and only himself around her.
They need a ship name like those vintage absolutely ANTIQUE Yu-Gi-Oh names ending with "-shipping." Ballshipping. Creepradioheadshipping. Whimsyshipping.
Or maybe like tf2 names. Teenage rebellion. Chocolate milk. BBQ crickets. The possibilities are endless.
