The Tale of the Blue Winter Rose, Rhaelya, and Jonerys

The story of Bael the Bard and the tale of the blue rose and why it was specifically mentioned to Jon is because it is a chance for him to learn the story of his parents, Lyanna and Rhaegar.

"Who was your mother?"

"Some woman. Most of them are." Someone had said that to him once. He did not remember who.

She smiled again, a flash of white teeth. "And she never sung you the song o' the winter rose?" (Jon VI, ACoK)

To go off on a small tangent, this is a very similar kind of foreshadowing that George had woven in before, specifically with Jon in his conversation with Jeor, when discussing Maester Aemon (aka, discussing Jon's family):

"Yes and no. First they offered it, quietly, to Aemon. And quietly he refused. The gods meant for him to serve, not to rule, he told them. He had sworn a vow and would not break it, though the High Septon himself offered to absolve him. Well, no sane man wanted any blood of Aerion's on the throne, and Daeron's girl was a lackwit besides being female, so they had no choice but to turn to Aemon's younger brother—Aegon, the Fifth of His Name. Aegon the Unlikely, they called him, born the fourth son of a fourth son. Aemon knew, and rightly, that if he remained at court those who disliked his brother's rule would seek to use him, so he came to the Wall. And here he has remained, while his brother and his brother's son and his son each reigned and died in turn, until Jaime Lannister put an end to the line of the Dragonkings."

"King," croaked the raven. The bird flapped across the solar to land on Mormont's shoulder. "King," it said again, strutting back and forth.

"He likes that word," Jon said, smiling.

"An easy word to say. An easy word to like."

"King," the bird said again.

"I think he means for you to have a crown, my lord."

"The realm has three kings already, and that's two too many for my liking." Mormont stroked the raven under the beak with a finger, but all the while his eyes never left Jon Snow.

It made him feel odd. (Jon I, ACoK)

The tale in itself is doubly tied to Jon because, as we know well, Lyanna is tied to flowers, specifically blue winter roses.

Last of all, he came to the tomb where his father slept, with Brandon and Lyanna beside him. "Promise me, Ned," Lyanna's statue whispered. She wore a garland of pale blue roses, and her eyes wept blood. (Eddard XIII, AGoT)

--

Promise me, Ned, his sister had whispered from her bed of blood. She had loved the scent of winter roses. (Eddard XV, AGoT)

--

"Now as it happened the winter roses had only then come into bloom, and no flower is so rare nor precious. So the Stark sent to his glass gardens and commanded that the most beautiful o' the winter roses be plucked for the singer's payment. And so it was done. But when morning come, the singer had vanished...and so had Lord Brandon's maiden daughter. Her bed they found empty, but for the pale blue rose that Bael had left on the pillow where her head had lain." (Jon VI, ACoK)

--

Ned remembered the moment when all the smiles died, when Prince Rhaegar Targaryen urged his horse past his own wife, the Dornish princess Elia Martell, to lay the queen of beauty's laurel in Lyanna's lap. He could see it still: a crown of winter roses, blue as frost. (Eddard XV, AGoT)

The "Stark maiden" in the story is Lyanna, chosen by Rhaegar:

If he loved you, he would come and carry you off at swordpoint, as Rhaegar carried off his northern girl, the girl in her insisted, but the queen knew that was folly. (Daenerys VII, ADwD)

Both the winter rose from the story and Lyanna are fair:

"North or south, singers always find a ready welcome, so Bael ate at Lord Stark's own table, and played for the lord in his high seat until half the night was gone. The old songs he played, and new ones he'd made himself, and he played and sang so well that when he was done, the lord offered to let him name his own reward. 'All I ask is a flower,' Bael answered, 'the fairest flower that blooms in the gardens o' Winterfell.'" (Jon VI, ACoK)

--

"And there's my grandfather, Lord Rickard, who was beheaded by Mad King Aerys. His daughter Lyanna and his son Brandon are in the tombs beside him. Not me, another Brandon, my father's brother. They're not supposed to have statues, that's only for the lords and the kings, but my father loved them so much he had them done."

"The maid's a fair one," Osha said. (Bran VII, AGoT)

The room Lyanna was in also smelled of blood and roses, and she had winter roses in her hands when she died, but when they spilled from her palm, they were black, dead. Like her.

Not my mother, Jon thought stubbornly. He knew nothing of his mother; Eddard Stark would not talk of her. Yet he dreamed of her at times, so often that he could almost see her face. In his dreams, she was beautiful, and highborn, and her eyes were kind. (Jon III, AGoT)

As Lyanna's son, Jon is, in Daenerys' vision in the House of the Undying, the blue flower growing in a chink of ice (becoming LC?) at the wall (the literal Wall), filling the air with sweetness, and Dany will be his bride, the bride of fire:

A blue flower grew from a chink in a wall of ice, and filled the air with sweetness...mother of dragons, bride of fire... (Daenerys IV, ACoK)

This is not tied to Sansa or Jonsa.

Menstruation is called flowering, but Sansa was not menstruating in winter time. It also would make no literary sense for a vision specifically for Daenerys, who was in the House of the Undying, and also seeing said blue flower growing in the ice, and also as the bride of fire, to not be connected to her in some way.

Petyr being called Baelish is also not a tie to Jonsa, either, because it is Bael the Bard who steals and impregnates the Winter Rose, and she loved him so much that she had begotten him a son.

That would be foreshadowing for Petyr/Sansa, not Jon/Sansa.

"No. They had been in Winterfell all the time, hiding with the dead beneath the castle. The maid loved Bael so dearly she bore him a son, the song says...though if truth be told, all the maids love Bael in them songs he wrote. Be that as it may, what's certain is that Bael left the child in payment for the rose he'd plucked unasked, and that the boy grew to be the next Lord Stark. So there it is—you have Bael's blood in you, same as me." (Jon VI, ACoK)

Instead of being the next Lord Stark like in the Bael the Bard story, Jon would be the next King in the North, as per Robb's will:

"...and dead. No one has seen or heard of Arya since they cut Father's head off. Why do you lie to yourself? Arya's gone, the same as Bran and Rickon, and they'll kill Sansa too once the dwarf gets a child from her. Jon is the only brother that remains to me. Should I die without issue, I want him to succeed me as King in the North. I had hoped you would support my choice." (Catelyn V, ASoS)

Ok so- the damn oneshot with Calupoh I've mentioned. . .

"Sleepwalker"

2:35 A.M.

Tw: implied self harm, maybe psychological horror? Idk if it's gonna count for derealization or something else. Drowning (metaphorically) would it count if I didn't know how to write a British accent?? 💀

I don't know if any warnings apply to this tbh 😭 so I'm sorry if it's gonna trigger something

I tried, I didn't feel like writing this tbh, I hope it's good.

. . .

It was dark.

Nothing anywhere, just a void of emptiness that surrounded him, as far as the eye could see, it was just darkness.

Was he dead? No, no... It wasn't that.

Calupoh got up from the ground or whatever it was he was now standing on and started to walk without any real sense of direction or a clue where he was going.

He heard voices, faded whispers of people, cries for help, false promises of things getting better, the faint crackling of flames somewhere where he couldn't see.

It felt cold, like the waters of the ocean. So cold that his breath fogged in the air, that the Lt felt his bones tremble and shake. . .

Why was he gasping for air? He couldn't breathe anymore. It felt like he was drowning, he felt something around his neck, his throat, it was cold.

Why were his hands bloody? Cuts adorning his forearms to accompany old burns from the past, all red and itchy and. . .

Quick, shallow and empty attempts of breathing all to no avail, to no results. Calupoh fell backwards, why did he fall? Did he trip on something or bump into something?

Hands holding his own shook him violently, but no one else was in the void... But it felt like there was but he just couldn't see

"WAKE UP!"

A gruff, thick British voice practically yelled at him, seeming panicked or frustrated, maybe even scared.

Calupoh gasped, tears welling up in his eyes and falling without a pause, a lump in his throat, looking around frantically like a scared animal with no way to escape before he realized where he was and calmed down just the tiniest bit. His breath ragged but slowly steadied as the hangover of sleep faded away from his fogged mind. He sniffled, wiping his eyes as the tears were getting to blur his vision.

He looked at who was the one behind the voice. Price, John Price... His Captain...

'Fucken' hell. . .'

The thought rang in the Lieutenant's tired mind. Glancing at his bloody arms, a knife in the sink of the kitchen.

That explained it.

Sleepwalking, again. Never was with knives before.

"Gave me a bloody heart attack, ya muppet." Price huffed with a shake of his head, tense but seeming relieved for Calupoh to be awake but concerned.

"On your feet, gotta get you cleaned up." The Captain spoke, maybe trying to be soft for once, to not be as tough and be more of a support to lean on.

Calupoh followed, without word or protest, and they went to the bathroom. John cleaned the blood away, disinfected the fresh cuts and gashes and bandaged them up to help with their healing.

HOFAS Thoughts and Review!

This is also my review on Goodreads. Naturally, this is full of spoilers so proceed with caution!

4 star read!

This was a wild ride from start to finish. I found that you jumped right into the action and it literally didn't stop. The crossover with ACOTAR was very info-dump but I didn't mind since a) I don't remember anything lol and b) we needed to make the connection. I really loved seeing Nesta and Azriel in this different element. Given the timeline between ACOSF and HOFAS being about 3 months, I loved that Azriel and Nesta now know how to fight together and Nesta is so in touch with her powers. I love seeing how their friendship has bloomed.

Bryce is a menace and will forever be one. She's one of Sarah's MCs I relate to the least and therefore needed to warm up to her more. I found that in this book, I could despite a lot of her arrogant moments that will rub people the wrong way. I love Quinlar's love but didn't appreciate that she minimized Hunt's reaction to basically reliving much of his trauma with the first war. I'm glad she apologized and got to the point of understanding him but it left a little meh of a taste. The ending scene where he goes after her had my heart in pieces!! Through love, all is indeed possible and I love they were always with each other through it all.

Bryce basically being the High Lady of Dusk and controlling the land was amazing! I loved seeing those scenes. Saitha being the one to kneel first, declaring her as queen? Loved that. The two fae kings dying an awful death? Fabulously done! Hunt mf Althar removing his own slave halo and then removing Isaiah's while calling out that governor lady on her shit??? ADORE! Jesiba's everything in this book? I salute you, queen! Sabine's death??? The Under-King's death??? Literally had me gasping so much.

Ruhn my love, you will always be the Crown Prince of the Fae and that soundbite will always be on repeat every time I see your name lol.

Ruhn x Lidia's romance fell very flat to me. I love Ruhn and hated everything he had to go through but Lidia's character felt out of left field for me. I expected better/different? We find out out of NOWHERE that she's a mom of twins and suddenly, that's her whole personality. She went from this badass agent to everything being about her kids. There is NOTHING WRONG with her being a mother but why couldn't she be a mother AND care about the cause because it's the right thing to do? This was a missed opportunity in my opinion. I also felt like this was very self-insert of Sarah being a mom to have to include another character having kids. The constant talk about all these traumatized idiots having babies is getting on my last fucken nerves tbh. They have a million years to live so can we, I don't know, let them LIVE for five seconds without the absolute need to "start a family"? Let them go to therapy damn it. Sarah constantly writes about how awful it is that fae are obsessed with breeding and whatnot, yet every single of one her characters talks about babies...pls sarah, I beg. Give me ONE otp that doesn't have children. I know she's a HEA author which is what I love about her and her romances but it doesn't always have to end with kids and I just wish we'd see that more. Ruhn and Lidia did not strike me as characters who would be parents at all but now, Ruhn is a stepdad to the Hind's secret twins? It's very weird to me but I hope maybe down the line, we get to see Lidia realize that she is a whole person outside of being a mom. Aside from all that, the rescue scene was amazing. I loved seeing her destroy that asshole she had to endure and I just want to say, Aelin would be cheering mad hard at her for it! It felt like Lidia's fire abilities, the stag relation, and her son's name were all a nod to TOG and I loved that.

As for all the other characters, I really enjoyed seeing Ithan come into his own even though my guy was making mad stupid decisions along the way. His moment with Connor will always have my heart! l also loved the little bits of Ithan and Perry so much! Tharion my love, you will always be famous for making the most desperately dumb decisions before passing that one brain cell you have to Ithan but you know what? Sathia is going to be great for him and I ship it with my whole chest. Ari was wasted in this book and her ungrateful attitude annoyed me. Sigrid's whole plotline was pointless. Declan and Flynn are the best buds and I love them so much. Baxian, you are a gem! Pax being the one responsible for the actual HOFAS while being a healer who is making those antidotes was a great twist and I love it for her. The little fire spirits were so cute and their little moment with the viper queen made me cackle. The Viper Queen can suck it but I am also so very curious about what will happen now considering how that scene ends with Tharion/Ari/Sathia/Colin. I have a feeling all these characters will be showing up again in the future and I'd be excited to read how that will go. I have a feeling it might be done ACOSF style - in that, it'll be standalone in the CC world.

Bonus Chapters:

Bryce, Azriel, Nesta - hilarious and also so cute how Nesta was fascinated by the music playing from Bryce's phone. Azriel doesn't have a mate or partner so let that be clear LOL. Also Nesta already thinking about babies makes me wanna die tbh.

RuhnLidia - It was cute that she proposed and Ruhn is such a little dork crying left and right hahaha.

Quinlar - Hilarious how the big strong thunder boy was scared of those little dolls HAHA.

Ember/Randall - This made me want the Archeron sisters to have a mother figure so badly! The moment with Nesta and Ember hugging was so sweet in the book. I know people are mad at Rhys for yelling at Nesta but y'all...the whole world was at stake and that was a scary decision to make on Nesta's part given how the Pyrthian is STILL traumatized by the Asterie. I don't love how much he yelled but I get it.

Despite having parts I didn't like, I did overall really have fun with this. I think Sarah always does a great job with the action scenes in the end and giving us that found family connection. I could do without having the whole girl boss/girl power white feminist nonsense constantly shoved in our faces but alas! As I said, I still really enjoyed it! It had a lot of moments that pulled on all my emotions as every SJM book does. I will always enjoy what she puts out because I take it all at face value and read it to have fun. Sarah always knows how to enjoy her writing and you can tell while reading and for me, that's more than enough. The lore/plot is secondary to the characters for me and that is always how she sucks me in. She writes compelling characters who have amazing adventures and friendships that you feel through the pages and I will always enjoy that. Can't wait for more books! Here's to hoping we hear something about ACOTAR soon especially now that Bryce gave both swords back to Nesta! Can't wait to see how it plays out!

-ed and em are the best :3 i'm very bummed out they were barely in s3... they're a bunch of goofballs but can also be so thoughtful and sincere, especially to amity. one of my fav scenes ofcourse is in s2e5 when amity gives luz that adorable lil kiss (love them) and for some reason ed saying "bold move, sister" is just the cherry on top <3

-Lumity omg omg everything about them they're so cute <3 <3

-all of these so far are just me saying "i love them" but thats how it is so i dont care and i will keep going

-i love the Lulu-Hootsifer duo its so weird but they go so well together <3

-i like how Eberwolf, head of the beastkeeping coven, is just. a lil beastie guy. it's like "yeah this is our leading zoologist and veterinary expert, uhh he's a wolf or something idk"

-Darius is so good, love his dynamics with both Hunter and Eber

-Hunter <3

-Gus and Willow are soo great together <3 we don't see it that often but their friendship is so genuine and they're so supportive of eachother

-do NOT get me started on s2e12: Elsewhere and Elsewhen i have a very complicated relationship with it

-Hunter had to come up with an alias when meeting Willow and Gus and on the spot he thought of Caleb?? Like, the guy he's like a clone of?? Which he didn't conciously know???

Hi, hope you're having a good day, here's one of my aunt's puppies and frog in a bucket

(Sorry for that last ask, I think i was tring to express a sympathy on "dealing with this thing sucks", pretty sure I fucked it completely, learned I shouldn't send asks after midnight, sorry)

OHOHOHOHOHO

And nah it's fine <3 Tbh just didn't know how to respond cuz I'm in the same boat. I was basically deported and don't have Aussie citizenship despite trying for years and living there most my life lmao. I know exactly how it goes and it's a chore. "There's no demand for shooters" suck my dick I am singlehandedly saving our natural ecosystems rn 😭

Slight rant under cut

ETA: Also I've met too many people who genuinely talked about wanting to get Australian citizenship because of TF2. Because they think Australia is just Sniper or something. Or the best country ever while ignoring the climate change/racism/housing crisis/inflation/price gouging/cost of living/inhospitability/natural disasters/etc. Australia isn't in a good state right now, most people are barely able to survive, and our middle class is practically non-existent. But people see Sniper TF2 and go "omg Aussie..." and decide they wanna be Australian for some fucking reason while literally knowing zack about the country OUTSIDE of how it's portrayed in media. Nothing of us or our culture, they think they know some slang terms or some shit and that's enough to be considered Australian. And that gets on my fucking nerves cuz I'm still tryna get citizenship cuz it's literally my home and I grew up there.

People also only do this with Sniper btw. You don't see people going "I'm gonna move to GERMANY!!" cuz of Medic, or Russia for Heavy, or Texas for Engie, or Boston, or France, or anything else. It's literally just Sniper. This fandom is fucken weird fetishy about Australia sometimes and on rougher days I genuinely wanna leave it because of it. Any time someone says they want Australian citizenship my first question is why? What do you think Australia has/can give you that your home country can't? Too many bad experiences. This goes extra double for countries on the same development scale as Australia—America, Russia, the UK, South Africa, cuz then it's obvious that it's usually more about what they think Australia is like (because of what they've seen in media) rather than them trying to seek a better life/better opportunities elsewhere.

Anyway the amount of people coming into my DMs/inbox going "how do get Aussie citizenship/immigrate" is too damn high. My brother in gaming if I knew how then I wouldn't be stuck in America. And when I know they're in the TF2 fandom it basically always leaves a bad taste in my mouth cuz my kangaboo detector goes ding. So most those asks get deleted

Sorry for the ramble. This has been on my head a while though. I've met too many people who fetishise Australia/Aussies cuz of shit they've seen in media. Hits me in that "white people seeing exotic nature of locals" bone. Australia is still a "wild land" in some people's eyes so naturally people (usually white) wanna come here and be weird about it. And it usually leads to exploitation (see: arguing with First Nations to give up land rights to built fucking houses)

Rant over I'm burnt out lol. None of this is directed at you I'm just explaining why I deleted the ask. Didn't know how to respond + my kangaboo detector went off. So I played it safe

#blu whos

[solarpunk-0possum]

since moving out west i've had a lot of opportunity for hands-on experience in progressive communities. the types of community i didn't really have access to in Iowa. i've also had opportunity to learn from Indigenous people through my Indigenous holistic health class.

The professor in that class facilitated a zoom call between our class an a Canadian 2-Spirit activist. I got the chance to ask a question. I identify as non-binary and I feel a strong solidarity with 2-spirit people. As part of decolonizing my own experience with gender I've found listening to Indigenous people yields genuinely good advice for finding healing.

I asked them what we, as white queer and nonbinary people, can do to be good allies to 2-Spirit folks. Their response was "address the racism in your communities."

One volunteer group I am in is almost entirely white. There are people of color involved but the leadership is predominantly white. the org is run by white people. now these are white people with decent values, in my opinion. they've been good to me, i feel safe with them, and i do feel like they have a good intention with the volunteer work. However, I am white. I fit in in that sense. I have cultural background that allows me to fit into this community, for better or for worse. I've had discussions with another white friend and we both are wondering what the experience of a Brown person might be in this org. We concluded there's a high chance it's uncomfortable. The people of color i've met that come by don't stick around very long.

This week was the first week I didn't go to our weekly outreach. I usually go and carry water down to folks living along the creek in town. I'll shoot the shit with people, play with dogs, talk about plants, pick up sharps, etc. I want to be clear- I think the work this org does is a net positive. I do think people appreciate what we do. We recently helped someone access an abortion, which felt very profound to me. I've really loved my time working with this org.

But to be fucken honest I just. I can't stand how white it is. I grew up in the whitest parts of the midwest and it drives me crazy. White American culture is kinda rotten even in progressive circles and we have a lot of fucking work to do.

I am going to stick around, but instead of going every week, I'm going to go every other. This just makes logistical sense and nobody will be upset with me about that. But that also gives me some emotional distance from the org, which I definitely need right now. I have this sneaking sense that there's going to be emotional conflict and drama. I fucking hate that shit. It's triggering tbh. The way that people communicate with each other in this org is kinda fucked up sometimes. It's very jokey, but it's jokey to an extent that can definitely get hurtful. That's the way my family communicates with each other and it's miserable.

I think it's a good idea to stick around, though, because I can make change in my own ways. I've been going every week since November, so I've built a certain level of trust. I can speak up about how white this org is. I'm not fucking around with the anti-racism. If that's what I can do to be a good ally to my 2-Spirit siblings than that's what I'm going to do. I don't care if I upset some fragile cisgender millennials. I'm going to do the right thing.

I mentioned earlier that my cultural background helps me fit in with these folks. I mean to use that! While I think the culture is rotten, I grew up where I did and I can't change that. I might as well use that cultural literacy to make positive change.

But I'm also wondering as to the longevity of this organization. We shall see. I'd really like it to last, because they definitely do good things.

#solarpunk #antiracism #nonbinary #as white members of marginalized groups it's really easy to forget that as hard as our experience is #we still benefit from being white #so we must look our privilege in the face and decide how we are going to use privilege to dismantle itself

[controversialhpmemes]

Me @ anything that isn't Ronmione: 🙅🙅🙅🙅 Negative. No. Directly to Jail. Do Not Pass Go. Do Not Collect 200$. Me @ Bellamione: Outstanding. Brilliant. Never been done before, et, etc, etc... Now, don't get me wrong, Ronmione belong together in canon and I will fight anyone who disrespects my boy.

I just think that I love Bellamione... or well, the fanfics, because it does something that is desperately needed in the HP fandom right now. It focuses on women and the relationships they have. It also focuses a lot on the way men treat women in society, the pressure of family and tradition, also comphet-feelings (well, some, of course) which are cool themes to explore. Also, it usually does focus on the Black Sisters and, tbh, they need more love and I am desperate for more content so....Well, there aren't that many options really, lmao, and I ended up falling down the rabbit hole.

TLDR: FOCUS MORE ON THE WOMEN, FANDOM, I FUCKEN DARE YOU.

Hard no on Bellamione. Do not see them together.

Hard yes to more fem-focused content.

Bakugo x reader (quirkless au!)

Third POV over Bakugo

He slammed his door open not wanting to be bothered. He sat down on his couch, petting his gray cat. (he seems like a gray cat or orange owner tbh). He got up and went to get his cat and himself something to eat. He sat down on his leather couch. Then his phone started to ring. It was his mom. “What” “What do you mean ‘what’. I am your mother and I can call you whenever I want to,” she scrolled him. Bakugou just sat there with an angry face. “Anyways, how are you?” He was about to give her an asshole response and then she said “Do you have a girlfriend yet?” “WHY DO YOU CARE!!!!” “ Well, if you don’t find someone at your age you’ll die lonely. You will end up being an old cat lady,” she laughed at him. “You know what I am actually seeing someone if you really wanted to know you really wanted to know,” he said cockily, knowing damn well that he wasn’t seeing someone. “Really, I want to meet her. Isn’t your winter break coming? You should bring her along to the house.” “Fine,” he said, “I will.” He hung up. “Fuck,” he thought, “What the fuck did I just do.” His phone pinned.

I didn't really care about the time, since I don’t have any classes tomorrow, or should I say today. “You're not tired?” I asked her since we were on a call. “nope,” she said, but you could obviously tell she was falling asleep. “Just go to sleep, dumbass. I can literally tell that you are falling asleep.” “No, we have to beat the ender dragon.” “We don't even have ender pearls, so how are we going to beat it?” “ We need more gold.” “For?” “To go to the nether and trade with the piglens, duh (🙄).”

We ended up mining. Surprisingly, we found almost six stacks of gold, plus the gold we already had, we for sure would get more than 12.

She went through the portal first and we started trading with the piglens.

“MAN, WHAT THE FUCK!” I yelled. “I KNOW RIGHT! LIKE HOW THE FUCK ARE THESE MF’s GOING TO SCAM US LIKE THIS!!” The piglens only gave us 5 ender pearls, and we already gave them over ⅔ of the gold we had. “They don't deserve to live,” she sounded so sinisterly. We ended up killing them.

We went back through the portal.

“Should we go to the end???” she asks. “I don't know. You wanna go.” “Yeah, but I'm kinda tired to be honest” “Well no shit, it's literally about to be 4” “I know, I know… um i'll talk to you later so we can continue, ok” “Yeah, I'm cool with that” “Ok good night Katsuki” “Night” i scoffed at her good night since it was about to be the time that i usually wake up. “Fuck it's late”

Before I crashed into my bed, I went to feed my cat.

~

I woke up to my cat sitting on my chest, demanding for some food.

“Shit” I said as I saw the time on my nightstand. It was nearly 1 pm. I got up to feed my dumbass cat,again. I grabbed my phone to see 6 missed calls from my mom. “Oh Fuck me”

I called her back to see what she wanted.

“FOR FUCKS SAKE KATSUKI I THOUGHT YOU WERE DIED” “ JUST BECAUSE I DONT ANSWER YOU DOESNT MEAN I DIED” “DONT YOU YELL AT YOUR OWN MOTHER and are you barely waking up?” “Don't worry about it” “Are you sick? This isn't like you to be waking up at this time. Do you want me to come over? I'll make you something to eat.” “I'm not sick. Don't even think about coming over. I just didn't want to get up. Plus I have plans either way.” “Anyways I wanted to remind you about your winter break and about how you are still bringing your girlfriend, right?” “Yeah, I know already you don't have to remind me every five seconds.” “Well you never know, Katsuki. Things happen and you might just forget. Well, I’ll let you go since you have plans.” “K bye.”

Finally, she hunged up the phone.

I got up and changed into a black tank top, gray [collage name] sweatshirt, and some dark brown cargo pants with black Nike air max.

I made some toast with avocado and an egg for breakfast. And some coffee. Washed the dishes and went to brush my teeth and grabbed my wallet and keys and then I headed out towards my car.

I arrived at my local grocery store. “Fuck, I'm never staying up that late playing fucken minecraft.”

I go inside and grab all the stuff I need to make my meal prep for the week and other stuff.

Let it NEVER be said that zhongli havers don't know how to dodge 💋 i need to tell u my story of beating this mini boss dhfbfudbf

So I didn't acc know where it was, I just read that its north of the court so I went looking in that region. Found it. Went onto the cliff bc I've seen the stories and was shit scared. I thought I could just Nahida sniper the shit out of it so I stood on my lil cliff and summoned Raidens eye and Nahida E

Tell me WHY IT STARTED WALKING UP THE CLIFF. Oh my goodness my life flashed before my eyes as it started walking towards me I was like HUH? WHERES MY FUCKEN INSTRUCTION MANUAL FOR THIS SHIT. Anyway I was really wary bc app this thing obliterates a 50k zhongli shield.... so I was like yeah Imma have to dodge 🙄 my worst nightmare smh.

Surprisingly the actual fight wasn't that bad? I was terrified but ngl I lasered it with nahida and shogun 🤡🤡 anything hydro gets decimated with dendro so it was acc okay! I was making progress LMFAO. I think I used zhonglis burst once and that was it. The rest was just Nahida E and NA and shogun E. Also I outsmarted the water blob by hiding behind my Zhongli pillar everytime it used that stupid ass water laser move 😒 anyway ! No characters were killed 💋 I kicked ass fuck u vivianne

I GIGGLED THE WHOLE TIME I READ THIS BC I WAS LIKE OMG !!! SHE SEES MY STRUGGLE NOW !! except i can’t believe vivianne the CUNT climbed the cliff for you HELLO ??? i stood in higher ground and has lynster shoot the shit out of her LMAOOOOOO she’s so ass to fight bro deadass i hated it sm

the first time i tried it i was genuinely so close like im fairly certain just a few hits from al haitham was all i needed and then she just ONE SHOT EVERYONE BACK TO BAVK and my dodging wasn’t good </3

BUT ABYWAY CONGRATS ON THE ACHIEVEMENT LMAOOOO no fight ninianne </3 she’s not as bad tho tbh she’s easier to dodge

I appreciate that a lot of video games that have romancing lets you be bisexual. By default, games nowadays make the romance options bisexual. Kind of. You also kinda have to go out of your way for it, y'know?

I think my biggest bone to pick here is stardew valley. Don't get me wrong, it's an amazing game, but there's just something about the queerness of it. It does get hella queer if you go for the same sex marriage, but otherwise it's kinda lacking y'know. I was really happy when I romance Leah and found out she had an ex gf. Explicitly queer :D but then. If you play as a dude, the ex will be a guy. Oh. That's.. yeah. A lot of games lack queer representation you can find without actively being queer.

This brings me to titles that have done it well. Cyberpunk 2077 of all games. Honestly, I think *not* making all the romancing options bisexual is what makes this good. Through the story, you find out which characters are queer. They don't walk up to you and go 👉👈 I've never had these feelings for a girl before. No! Bitch you know her ex girlfriend died. I feel like the writing for these characters is good as well. Cyberpunk W tbh

As expected from me, next up: Larian titles. My favorite game of all time is divinity original sin 2. I love how it handles queer characters. Once again, they don't fucken say "hey I am a girl that likes girls". You meet a woman and she tells you she needs help. Her wife is in trouble. I *love* when games don't treat queerness as something special that someone needs to bring up. It's something that fits in the world. It's normal. Just like real life. Oh yeah and the gay sex with your companions in dos2 is pretty cool too.

Next larian title: baldur's gate 3. Need I say more. These guys are queer as hell. No need to search for it at all. You will see it. Unless you're oblivious and refuse to speak to two people of the same gender in the vicinity of each other. Or any of your companions. You get everything. Cute queer. Toxic queer.

Conclusion: put more queer people in ya games. And also tell us without *telling* us.

Oh yeah sorry for not bringing up trans representation :( I know there are trans people in cyberpunk too, but I can't think of memorable examples from games I have played. More proof we need more queer rep of all kinds.

☆ Vincent (Yeah, that one) Vincent Afton, my beloved husband, my only tulpa, I made him On Accident. I've been messin' with him for like, 7 or 8 years now, but I only recently found out he was his own person up in my head there.

Gordon Freeman (Freeman's Mind) Most recent hyperfixation, uhhh The Pookie of all time tbh. I relate to him painfully hard. I'm just Freemind coded in my heart tbh, but I've been repressed so I can only say in my head what he says out loud. I worry about getting a Freemind headmate... I'm trying not to get any more headmates, but I suppose it remains to be seen.

Alucard (Hellsing Ultimate) heghghehhehe Vanpire, Hot. Ough. Hellsing is just so fucking good, and Alucard is the very best part of it all. I love how much of an Evil Bastard he acts like. He's not an evil bastard in his heart, you can tell, he's very sweet, deep deep down. He needs a lil' bit of a hug and a kiss.

Swerve (IDW) Ough I relate to him So Much I love that fucken robot. He's soooo sweet natured, he really is. He needs someone to love him asap. I love how nice he always is to everybody tbh, he deserves a hug.

Postal 3 Dude (Postal 3) OUGh this is the newest one, he's literally So Silly. The Grinning Sniler...

Isn't it implied that Armand was sexually abused even before Marius when he was basically a child sex trafficking victim? Kind of don't even want RJ to touch that backstory at all at this point tbh

Oh yes, I would say it's not even "implied" as much as very clearly part of his backstory. He's kidnapped and trafficked and winds up with Marius because Marius purchases him.

I will say when I talked about this yesterday I said "Especially because Armand's experience of it doesn't fit neatly into RJ's whole 'rape makes you tougher' trope since Armand doesn't ask the reader to think of it as rape." which!!!!!! I will fine tune here and say I meant his experiences with Marius are the rape he doesn't try to sell us as rape. Please don't get me started on TVA meta and Armand's reliability as a narrator since we are in AMC land today on this post. He's clear about what happens to him when he's trafficked, and when Marius first "rescues" him he's so traumatized that he's nonverbal.

So it absolutely does not make him tougher; it makes him traumatized and vulnerable. I think even his respite of living with Marius is undone when he gets to the cult and re-embraces his fervent religious beliefs. It makes me wonder if he's overcorrecting and seeing his time with Marius as sin. He doesn't recover from this for like 300 years!

But that kinda leans into like a lot of the casual readers' ambiguity about who & what Marius is, also about Anne's intentions writing it/the branding contamination of her erotica career. I would even argue that a lot of casual readers don't even make it this far into the series, anyway. This is probably the most divisive book in the series because some people read it as fun vampire erotica that's just packed to the rafters with sexy & extremely common kink tropes, other people go WAIT WHAT THE FUCK? lol.

I'm not completely buying that the team on this show actually read the whole series, or at least not as deeply as fandom nerds have 😂, and like I think everyone has to remember that Tumblr & fandoming are echochambers and people outside in the regular world tend not to be this sensitive to these topics. Especially when it comes to topics that are more familiar in queer spaces. So it wouldn't surprise me if the Venice era was read uncritically. I almost wanna say maybe even read as Anne intended but what the fuck has this show told us about what Anne intended? LOL.

But there's a lot of ambiguity in TVA with Marius's intentions again don't let me waste Marius meta on an AMC post and the thing people often romanticize about him is that he rescued Armand. And like I just wonder if the show, seeing how they're handling Claudia, would lean into the like Ricean precocious child trope and try to play it off that Armand is asking for it or enjoying it.

And much like the way they're portraying Lestat, I think it's worth noting that Marius's actons often come from grounded places, and the harm he does is not always intentional. Personally I don't think the show has framed Lestat as particularly sympathetic, although they've given us some clues about why he's like this. I think fandom is really extrapolating on that stuff and woobifying him LOL so just. WHEW WOULD THEY DO THAT TO MARIUS? HAHA. fucken yiiikes.

I am *eating popcorn gif* waiting to see if the completely rampant Lestat apologism will extend to Marius bc it's hilarious to me that he has been demonized by fandom along with his fans but yet Domestic Abuser Lestat is just sad about his ex uwu louis is so mean 2 him

So anyway yeah idk man. I'm not thrilled with what the show is saying about teenagers and sexual assault so I definitely have some concerns about Armand. But I also feel like it would be such a cop out to age him up, because him being turned at 17 and looking like that is so important to his character. All of this stuff is important to his character. Like idk I don't want them to shy away from these topics but I just hope like, if there's meaningful feedback from Season 1 maybe they write it more sensitively and with more nuance going forward.

I hate to say it but we can only hope that the show continues on its path of making it the fuck up and maybe none of this will make it to the screen anyway. hopes & prayers. please leave my son out of this adshjgkadg

[mayonaka-sunshine]

ohhh doctor who.... host was watchin it earlier (parents had a marathon on)......... um i don't know what the episode is called but s one of the modern ones.... the ww2 has mask kid. "are you my mummy". i really like that one ehe... "it feels like there's something in your throat trying to break out".... s cool. ehehe

but um... host s doin ok! he's stressed n all but m tryin t' make him relax..... he's just younger than me so i get why he's pushin so hard but he needs t' calm down i think..... ehehehe but i love him!!! he's been dealin with a lot n m proud of him :)

know ya don't like horror much vani but ah... do ya got any media with horror...... particularly movies. wanna watch more movies but m no good at findin stuff on my own..... i love ya a lot i hope school goes well!!!! -🪴

ooo nice !!! i do like that episode!!!!! it's one of the earlier 9 ones i think??? 9's one of my faves he's a silly guy <3 rose tyler the loml <3 i think you'd like it if you watched it further !! it gets Silly at times but also gets Serious and has some very fun storylines down the line !!

uu glad he's doing okay :< sending him good vibes. cheering u on. perhaps introduce him to puzzles <- guy who fucken loves puzzles i am also proud of him <3

uu uh. if you want. kinda low-budget older japanese horror (just assume all of these are undubbed into english lmao) : - the booth (2005) is more... silly? than scary? but still has horror elements. - dark water (2002) is pretty good. i don't remember much abt it tho. - ju-on: the grudge (2002) is also good ! i've never seen the american remake or whatever but this one is fun :) - one missed call (2003) has a kinda neat premise iirc? i can't actually remember if me nd my parents watched this one or one with a similar premise but the wikipedia page rings bells so ! - pulse (2001) BANGER STORY. focuses on ghosts taking over the world via the internet kinda thing? very sci-fi but also like. has gen moments of Scary its great :) pls watch pulse - ringu (1998) the og ring movie from japan ! actually kinda good ngl?

uh not necessarily horror but Train to Busan and its sequel Peninsula are good. from korea, set in a zombie apocalypse :) has scary moments but is definitely more of like. a tense movie than a scary one.

as for. american horror. i do not watch a lot but. a very stupid (affectionate) one is Bodies Bodies Bodies which is SUCH a silly movie. Unfriended was also good ngl. people didn't like it but i liked it.

also the death note movies exist. again not necessarily horror but tbh the slightly older ones from japan are good

#i. mostly just watch a lot of psych horror? esp from the east #i find that stuff just. very fun ! #but yeah if i think of any others i'll uh.......... telepathically send them to you. or mention them next time you talk to me sdkjghsd #system anon 🪴

hi morgan beloved have you considered. lacy by olivia rodrigo as a meronia song. *slides it across the table*…. but like specifically mello’s pov. have we considered it. “skin like puff pastry” and “eyes white as daisies”…. “its like youre out to get me, you poison every little thing that i do”…. “lacy oh lacy i just loathe you lately”…. “and i despise my jealous eyes and how hard they fell for you”….. i listen to it and think of mello’s gay ass all the time i wont lie - paris thesimstwo (beyond the grave version)

PARIS MY BELOVED !!! <3 <3 i've missed you so T__T

omfg okay,,, listen,,, this did not even occur to me (i've had all american bitch on repeat hgssdjfsdhf been neglecting the rest of GUTS u_u) but i am eyes wide OPEN NOW. SHRIEK!! i don't even know if i have anything to add other than you are,,, SOOOO fucking right,,,

i feel Very strongly that if mello actually had the capability to like. look his giant horrific crush in the eyes when they were younger it would be, like. a Struggle. to cope w/ that,,, his inferiority complex + guilt/shame over being kinda shitty to near for a hot fucken minute + the continuing rivalry (and his tendency to grossly misinterpret everything near does) = owchey

ALSO. ALSOOOO:

"Yeah, I despise my rotten mind and how much it worships you."
