Terry went, "sorry" 🥺 to Daniel.

And Daniel went, "no" 😠.

And so obviously that was it. Terry tried. The only conclusion was that clearly Miyagi-do needed to be crushed and burned.

That's a totally sane reaction.

Terry Silver can't take rejection well.

Under Siege

There was no reason to attack, but it didn’t stop them. Some said they rode under a false flag, but it mattered not to those of us that suffered the onslaught. The reality was the same no matter who led them; the community was under siege, and there was nothing we could do to stop it. The hours passed like molasses, one bleeding into another as we waited anxious for news that the invaders had been repelled. As the day came to a close, we went to bed with heavy hearts, to sleep, to dream of a better tomorrow where AO3 was back online.

Rewatching Romeo + Juliette and craving a lucemond fic like that,                  this is messy sorry if it doesn’t make any sense, I really really want to write it but I don’t have enough knowledge of hotd and tbh with you I understood nothing of what they were saying in the movie so if I write it it might take some time (that plus the fact I have a collection to do lol) btw they wouldn’t be related in this, Aegon and Aemond neither

just imagine Romeo as Aemond being the best lover out there, writing poems and verses to express his love for Lucerys, sick puppy love, being this drama queen about love and life. Aemond not giving a fuck about the people at the party who could see him, kissing the boy that shattered his world and stole his heart in 3 seconds while looking at fish. being immediately drawn to him asking him if he could kiss him Luke being all shy and a little shit about it. Aemond going out of his way just to see him again risking absolutely everything to kiss him again and be with him. Then learning he is a Capulet being torn with the decision he has to make and choosing love. Aemond doing everything he can to marry Luke as soon as possible, convincing the priest and all that shit meanwhile he’s known Lucerys for 1 day. 

Mercutio as Aegon (rocking the sparkly outfit as he fucking should) he is dramatic, he is feminine, he is a bit mad, he his very pretentious, and a tad jealous of seeing Aemond’s attention being stolen and Aemond’s bestie. His death makes Aemond absolutely FERAL with rage and grief seeking vengeance, scaring the hell out of Jake with a madness he has never seen in anyone eyes, then kills Jake without any mercy just rage (while Luke is out there dreaming about his marriage and making out with Aemond again not giving a shit about the family feud)

Luke horny as fuck on their wedding night waiting for him, then proceeds to learn of  his cousin death’s, crying about it and afterwards having the best sex of his life.

Alicent hating Raenyra because of whatever reason , Visery’s not giving a fuck following Alicent

Lucerys being precious Juliet seeing life through Aemond eyes and being completely in love at first glance, being over the moon for him, talking to himself out loud, dreaming about him and what their life together could be. Lucerys in the angel outfit ROCKING the world of Aemond. Not wanting to be with anyone else as soon as he saw him, thinking this is destiny, this was written in the stars, this is fated.

Rhaenys being the nurse, protecting Luke thinking Aemond’s an asshole

Daemon drunk as fuck letting Aemond being at the party because he doesn’t care (that’s so him honestly)

THE POOL SCENE OH MY GOD

Jacerys being Tybalt that LOTHES Aemond (anti lucemond until the end) all being the family feud because it gives him a purpose in life and a kind of power (which was just a childish quarrel over who has the biggest dick let’s be honest)

Aemond crying his soul out at Aegon’s death, losing his purpose when he thinks that Luke is dead, Luke dying twice when he wakes up and finds Aemond dying in front of him then kills himself now that he has no purpose in life without his Aemond.

Oh to be dramatic teenagers in love

One year ago I had never read or watched anything in the romance genre and I have now hit 150 BLs, so I’ve been thinking about how I got here!

Until I was in my early 20’s I only read litfic, sci-fi and fantasy, never romance…. Then I started reading fanfiction but again, only based on sci-fi or fantasy shows/books - and I always rejected the coffee shop or university AUs - why take characters who can do magic or are vampires and make them normal humans who work in a library? So again, I missed out on all the romance tropes.

Then, during the pandemic I started reading Shameless fanfic and perhaps because the characters are humans who live in our world, I ventured into the AUs for the first time and discovered that I love all the romance tropes! Give me all the enemies to lovers, forced proximity and arranged marriages please…

Finally, this led to BLs and for the first time in my life almost all the media I consume is romance and I love it so much! What a weird journey… I’d love to hear if you’ve always enjoyed romance and how you got here?

Oh my goodness what a fun question, okay let’s hit it...

My Journey to BL via SFF, Yaoi & M/M Romance  

So way back at the dawn of time I was once a hard-core fan, specifically in the science fiction and fantasy realm and specifically around 90s franchises that had to do with bad ass female warrior characters, so think Xena: Warrior Princess, Farscape, Buffy, Firefly. I did cosplay and crossplay (although we didn’t really call it that, then). I went to my first SFF con as a minor actually, as soon as I got my driver’s license and some autonomy I was out and about doing cons, ST:TNG Creatathons (is that what they were called?) and such. 

I was of the right age, but that was also how I found and got involved with queer fandom, ren faires, and kink. First prides, first alliances, first marches, first dungeons, first orgy - ya know, as ya do. I sexually matured super early and ya know what? It was fine, I’m fine. It all worked out. I regret nothing and stayed healthy emotionally, mentally, and physically, probubly as a result of the companion friendship groups I was forming, so... win win! 

And all because I read books like... THIS: 

I’m a FAST AF reader and super advanced, I read Tolkien at like age 8, and came to fandom via books more than TV or film. (Please don’t take this as a brag because I skim and retain NOTHING, so it’s not exactly a life advantage.) By high school I was into primarily fantasy, and always wanted/liked/preferred a romantic arc and some kind of found family element (so friendship groups = a big WIN). I also really gravitated to any authors who dealt with or mentioned queer characters (like Mercedes Lackey). That’s also when I first started noticing the “kill the gays” trope. 

I was always a really voracious reader. I read pretty much all the fantasy that my local library had, and then (partly because of Anne McCaffrey and a few other authors who also wrote romance), with no where else to go I moved into the romance genre. I actually got into romance before I got into science fiction. I was reading bodice rippers at age 10. Again, it was FINE. Some of us mature real early. Also I was living in the UK when Queer as Folk was doing its thing while reading lots of Mills & Boon. 

Then in the early 2000s I started actively looking for consumable queer literary media. By that I mean: anything that had queer characters as the main characters. However, I really don’t like literary fiction (too depressing), and I really wanted that romantic arc. I wanted stories that gave the queer characters happy endings TOGETHER, and also that didn’t gloss over the sexual side of being queer.

This basically led me to Japanese yaoi. I don’t recall exactly how I found my first one, but I do remember the hunting. 

I had to either find them and get them shipped to me via weird black market back channels, or I eventually started ordering them off Amazon. In fact, the first thing I ever bought on Amazon was a yaoi manga in dead tree form - so they might be why I opened the account. Only a few publishers were producing yaoi in translation back then, a name I particularly remember was DramaQueen. I actually even owned some yaoi publisher merchandise, which means I had an account WITH the publisher. I mean, who does that?! I had a T-shirt that said “seme” on one side and “It’s tough at the top” on the other side. I was so proud! I would wear it to sci-fi conventions, but was so obscure then that nobody I ran into ever knew what the shirt meant. I mean us geeks knew anime and even some manga, but yaoi? Not so much. 

Honestly, I still only really enjoy consuming manga in printed form (I struggle with webtoons), which is one of the many reasons I haven’t followed it (or manwha) closely in recent years. 

Meanwhile, at the same time I was being a yaoi fan (without a fandom) I was getting into the Hollywood indie gay romcom phase, so like Latter Days, and Shelter, and some of the other queer indie movies I talk about in this post: 

Old Guard Queer Cinema for BL Lovers 

So now we’re in mid 2000s and there just wasn’t a lot of manga in translation, let alone yaoi, thus I kept hunting for a more queer romance fiction to read. 

Which is how I became a really early adopter of the very first, what was called back then, m/m romance. There were only a few houses producing for the American market, small publishers like Loose ID.  I bought and read a ton of them in physical form, and then was super early on the e-book bandwagon because of this market almost entirely. I mean, we are talking early e-books that I had to go to the publisher’s website to buy and download - this is in the days of Sygil and Calibre. You had to read them on your laptop. I owned a FIRST generation Kindle.

At this point I’m reading mostly romances and no longer any SFF. And then recently (within the last 10 years, the two have started cross pollinating again, although now I only read SFF that has a strong romance thread and a happy ending for the queers. No exceptions will be made. 

Gotta have my standards! 

So I become a romance reader mostly because of yaoi, and now I do read other queer romances (not just gay ones) but before we didn’t have a choice. (Although gay romances still dominate the market.) 

I kind of left mangas behind for a long time.

So when I discovered BL, and I think SOTUS was my first one (?), although it might’ve been Love by Chance or Love Sick, or... (honestly when I jump into an obsession I JUMP TF IN so early 2019 when I discovered BL I tried to watch EVERYTHING I could all at once), I brought all of this baggage and affection (and forgiveness) from my history with yaoi and early mm romance (which get a lot of things WRONG not just about being gay and queer identity but also about sex and relationships and communication) to my interpretation of the BL genre.

(Well, that’s a massive run-on sentence I’m not bothering to fix. nash) 

So there it is. A very long way of saying: 

because of yaoi I got into m/m romance 

because of m/m romance I became an ebook romance reader

because of gay romance I have strong standards for my happy ever afters 

and because of THAT I got into BL and that history still dictates the KIND of BL I prefer

TA DA! 

*insert twirling flourish here* 

And then, because I am an obsessive completest, I have been systematically using all of lock down to try to watch every BL ever made. Some of us don’t, ya know, stay still very well. I needed a QUEST. 

Notice what’s missing? Fanfic. Yeah I have never been into it. It’s all good, I’m not against it or anything like that, just like D&D or Star Wars or electrical play... not my thing.

Me he vuelto a convencer de que hay una mejor versión mía, en un autodiscurso motivacional. Puedo ver mi egoísmo, es muy fácil pasar el tiempo pensando en lo complicado que es ser yo. Mientras tanto se me olvida que al rededor hay personas esperándome, personas que eligen hace años creer en ese potencial que permanece dormido. La verdad es que en mi normalidad no hay demasiado lugar para la reflexión "saludable", más bien todo termina siempre en el oscuro inframundo del no puedo, y esto es lo que quisiera desplazar.

Volví a recurrir a la magia, limpié los cristales e intencioné nuevos propósitos en rituales improvisados, en algún otro momento de mi vida eso funcionó. Aunque lo niegue, el aferrarse a algo en lo que creer puede ser útil.

Me propuse también terminar de rellenar un cuaderno de collages que empecé hace ya años. Este objetivo deviene en otro que es poder empezar un cuaderno alternativo que tengo guardado hace todavía más años. Hay un enorme miedo por arruinar lo que me parece demasiado lindo. Tengo miedo de intentarlo y fracasar. Digo: podría usarlo para escribir poemas, pero los poemas nunca los escribo a mano, sería forzoso y además mi letra es desprolija; digo: podría usarlo para hacer más collages pero hay otro empezado y además no soy lo suficientemente buena, quedaría feo y sin coherencia; digo: podría usarlo para guardar flores y hojas secas, pero sería desperdiciar el real sentido de un cuaderno. Y así, la ansiedad de lo que pueda pasar me mantiene en la inacción, es tonto, lo sé, puedo conseguir otro cuaderno igual, incluso otro más lindo, pero este es especial porque es mi primer cuaderno rojo y en mi imaginario está destinado a algo que no se qué es.

He pensado en analogías y metáforas, claro. Quizás cuando finalmente me decida a romper ese miedo, sea cuando las cosas finalmente cambien. Pero ¿no sería seguir ejerciendo presión? Mientras tanto el objetivo es otro, y espero que la magia sea mi aliada en medio de mi más duro escepticismo.

VET DAY! Radar and Libby visited with Doc today. Radar received his annual, while Libby saw him for her rapid breathing. We learned that the poor girl has pneumonia, which was very unexpected! But, she’s getting the big time meds, so that will knock it out quickly. Just glad it’s something treatable vs the dramatic road I instantly went down (#dramaqueen). Both were troopers while we drove about and picked up some donations. Radar was terrified at the vet, as he has some fears with being out and about, but he ultimately did very well. Proud of him. Libby was her typical love bug self, Pyr Pawing everyone for attention. “ME, ME, ME!!” she said. But I mean, we should all realize that it’s really all about her anyway, right? #thatradar #libbylou #feistdog #greatpyrenees #feistdogsofinstagram #greatpyreneesofinstagram #adoptabledogs #adoptabledogsofinstagram https://www.instagram.com/p/CjWWmALuVtU/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Keeping Up With Englefield

This year hasn't been as stressful as last year, but keeping up with the class work while typing, taking notes, listening and doing the work all at the same time is not easy for me. I look around the class and see my peers typing their blogs, doing their work, and writing notes while listening and keeping up with the class.

My school days consist of arriving at the class, trying to keep up as much as I can, going home, and re-writing all my work into something legible. I tend to spend twice the amount of time in class so I can keep up. Unfortunately, I missed a deadline to upload my work. Being disabled may seem like an excuse to some, but it's a reality that hinders my personal representation.

I don't want to be forgetting deadlines and drowning under the workload. When I take on personal work, I always set a large deadline, and I have multiple disclaimers in my contract for accessibility. I am a dedicated and passionate person, and when I work, I work well and professionally. However, memory loss is something I struggle with a lot, and it hinders my work. It's very embarrassing to see everyone doing exceptionally well, while I feel like a flounder gasping for air.

I've done harder work than this, and it's frustrating to feel like I'm not keeping up. Even though I know I am dedicated, I cannot help but feel constantly useless. It is a common theme every year, and I need to find a way to cope better.
