More like who the most annoying female lead is going to be because sure Mr Darcy was a jerk but the male lead from Emma was amazing he was nothing but respectful to her.
Hello anon!! So, you are definitely right. I'm powering through Emma right now and I can see what you're saying. Emma is a delight, albeit a slightly annoying one; while Knightley is a great person. But the tag just resonated with me while writing the rest of the post!
Having said that, I love and appreciate both Knightly and Darcy (not to mention how much I adore Lizzie).
Much love to you, dear anon! Come back anytime to discuss all things Austen with me, as it seems I've jumped onto the bandwagon and I'm not getting off it anytime soon. ♥️

thinking about Eddie, who because of the upsidedown was in a coma for effectively the rest of '86. When he woke up he had to re-learn a lot of shit, since even after he could open his eyes and sit up, moving was still hard.
Steve and Robin go with him to all of his PT appointments as he works on moving and standing up, but not walking yet. The therapist overhears him complaining to Steve about how he misses writing, since his hands are too shaky for the words to be legible.
She tells him that if he wants to write better he should practice more, and maybe pick something else up that requires small, repetitive movements, like sewing or crocheting.
Eddie is about to open his mouth to say that sewing might be a good idea, because he can work on putting his old patches onto the new vest that the kids bought him as a "we're glad you're not dead present", when Robin comes back from the bathroom and pipes up that she has some crocheting stuff from when she and Steve tried to learn together a few years back, and that's the end of that conversation.
crocheting is his least favorite part of the night, even if Robin and Steve are patient and let him pick the movie in the background and don't get frustrated when he drops the hook between the couch cushions for the thirtieth time in an hour.
Eventually he gets the hang of it, but--out of spite--refuses to make anything other than a very long line with his yarn, telling Steve and Robin he's going to strangle them with it when he's done, because crocheting "is literally the least metal thing in the world."
He stops threatening to strangle Robin after she makes him a little bat.

Inspired by other blogs, here are the books I've read this year 💛
I sort of shied away from reading goals, and I just read when/what I felt like reading.
It was a good year filled with great reads all the same 🌻

Taking Candy for a Fool part 14
You went home that night and immediately began to scheme. You looked through your work equipment and found a wig. A disguise would be a good start. Maybe you could pad yourself? But they always checked pockets and such, so they might notice your pants smaller than you look or actually see the pillows underneath. Not to mention, how would you bring in fruit and the like without accidentally squishing it? The tours were often crowded and you got bumped into almost every time you went.
Tumblr media
You huffed and sat at your laptop, feeling frustrated. You stared at an empty search bar on the screen a moment before thinking “What the hey, lets just start googling stuff.”
You started typing in “How to sneak candy…” But before you could finish, you noticed one of the first things to come up under the search bar was “…into a theater?”
You stared a minute before accepting that search began looking through the suggested content.
Many were good, but Fazbear security was better. They always searched pockets, purses, and one guard who worked there did pat downs. Not quite as bad as flight security, but certainly not far off. At least they didn’t do body scans. Not that you think they could for candy and food anyways.
You sighed again before seeing one that was particularly unique. The idea of using a hollowed-out dome object, like made of Styrofoam for crafts, to fake being pregnant.
You blinked at the suggestion and thought for a minute. It was terribly clever, but you would need a good disguise, considering you were fairly well known in the factor already. If you went thought a tour suddenly pregnant, there would be questions.
You began googling smooth round bowls, trying to find the quietest material, as well as the most convincing. You grinned to yourself as your plan began to unfold. You’d need to play the part of a pregnant woman as well, learn the way they walk, hold themselves, and not be too obvious that your belly wasn’t attached to you. Strapping it on would be wise. Maybe you ought to think of a gender for the “baby” and a name in case anyone asked.
You also had to plan for what to sneak in, what would fit best and how to keep it still and quiet. Grapes probably, blueberries, maybe bag up honey to form fit better as well. You remembered Sun said he liked Mango’s. You were determined to find a way to fit those in as well.
A week later, you knew you were ready.
Tumblr media
You went down to the tours again, faking your best pregnant walk for as late as a tour as you could get into. It wasn’t your usual, but you felt that was for the best. Breaking routine always was to not be noticed. It meant you had to sit in your hiding spot for longer than normal, but you were willing to do it. Your friend’s needed you.
The harvest had begun, the screams right one time. Yet, you had a feeling that tonight would be the last time you would hear them. You hoped for that. You practically prayed for it.
The silence came. The post torturous pain of the poor candy beings shuffling away to what they could pretend was safety. Where they could heal, become whole again. You knew they probably didn’t feel whole though, not while seeing their dear cinnemint companion on the wall, hollow and gone.
You journeyed out of the bathroom where you hid and dropped your fake pregnant walk, but still held your belly as if it were your child inside. You came to the boy’s room, and thought their faces always lit up at the sight of you. At first, they looked at you in confusion before you removed your wig, putting your usual glasses on as well. Their eyes lit up, and there was hope behind their broken shells.

One of the most amazing acts of projection I've seen on Tumblr is how the Spotify Wrapped truthers are still at it, days later, and they're still accusing anyone who said "hey this sucks" of Loving Corporations and like
My friends, you're not only talking endlessly about a corporation's ad campaign, you're the only ones still talking about it. Everyone else has moved on. The people debunking it have moved on. You're the only ones left frantically tossing off Takes and Discourse about, again, a corporate ad campaign

Sometimes I think about how even when I'm trying not to be, I am entirely made of the people I love. I recently reconnected with a close friend I hadn't seen in about three years. Apparently they're into watching video essays now. I'm more of a gaming YouTube person, but to each their own, I've always known this friend to be a touch more academic than me anyway. Fair enough. We find other things to talk about.
It is two months later. My watch later list is entirely filled with video essays. Three years is not enough time to forget how to love somebody. I'm glad of that.
#voidrambles#how to explain. it's like#i don't know when to hug or how hard and direct complements make me uneasy and i just#affection in the way most people know it does not come naturally to me#i do it because it's detectable to other people and it's what they do for me and it makes them happy which makes me happy#which makes me sound quite disingenuous? i think that's the word. with my love#but#the games i play most are ones i saw one friend get very very excited about and i loved them before i even started playing them#i haven't thought twice about deep sea creatures since maybe middle school but i do now,all the time,and bugs too#i get excited when i see one because another of my friends would#in 2021 i made this one specific vanilla milk drink in the microwave dozens of times even though I don't like sweet vanilla that much#it tasted so good to me for the time i was close with the person i got the recipe from#i get excited when i see yellow flowers. yellow is not one of my favourite colours#I write because of all the things I've read and loved I keep a list of books friends speak highly of#I cook my pasta with oil even though it makes the pot harder to wash and i don't know if there's a difference to the taste#because i can't tell it apart from the warmth of someone else's proudly given tip joining my own routine#i don't know how else to say this#I'm running out of examples not because there are no more but because i can't tell them apart from things i am on my own#that used to upset me but i don't think it does anymore#this post stops here. it's late and i have a video essay to watch#i love you

Lovejoy’s origin story is still one of my favorites like, literally two dudes already in a band went “Hey lets just make our own band actually,” then found a dude in a burger restaurant with a bass guitar and went “Hey you should join our band actually, here’s my address,” and then went “Wait we kind of need a drummer to record literally anything. Maybe there’s a session drummer on fivver. Oh shit he’s really good, hey dude you should just join our band actually” and now they have a top 40 single
10/10 literally sounds like a fiction plot tbh

Oh man, please - aren’t we all better than that? Please, I don’t want to see ship wars between the PalmerStrange shippers and Cleaphen shippers. In the vast multiverse, don’t we all have plenty enough to allow for ‘ship and let ship’? No hostilities please. No comparisons. Just enjoy what you enjoy and let others do the same.

Hi! So, I haven’t been able to read all the asks regarding Artem’s 2nd anniv card so forgive me if I end up repeating some stuff others have said already. I was admittedly excited when i first saw the pv and when the translations came out, and then while I was watching it, I was mostly going “???” I really thought that Artem with the bouquet meant that he caught it during your typical bridal bouquet toss where they mean “oh, you have it so that means you’re going to get married next”, and then he just gets the idea to propose from there. BUT NO. I personally find it to be the worst context??? On one hand, I’m glad that Celestine and Jeremy were so supportive. I just… hate that that’s how the proposal happened. I mean, I don’t know if proposing at someone else’s wedding is a big social taboo everywhere in the world, and I guess it’s okay because the bride and the groom wanted it to happen but… I just wouldn’t have wanted to be in Rosa’s position.
I find it really ironic that both of Artem’s anniversary cards are just so public because he does advise against public romantic gestures in Xmas Partyland, but I thought it was forgivable in the first anniversary because it was preceded by episode four, of his personal story where they’ve heavily implied to each other that they’re both ready for a relationship. This time though, they haven’t even talked about getting married, which threw me off so much because they talk about everything (his birthday SSRs and his recent personal story event on CN)!!! This could have easily been solved if they just… added a scene (flashback or whatever) where they talk about the possibility of getting married and whether or not they’re on the same page. That’s one issue down.
I’m also just miffed that this card doesn’t really tie in with his previous cards. Maybe it’s because Eternal Yearning fed us so much with the red beans and the callback to Entwined Fate, but I was at least hoping that they would do the same in this one. They did a great job characterizing him with so much of the precious Artem-centric content, and they just threw it out the window. To be fair, I do think it was very in character of him to plan the proposal so early on and to go through such an extreme means to avoid making it obvious that he had a plan, and also I think to reassure her through the phone when she was nervous. But other than that??? It just doesn’t make sense for him to be a tad inconsiderate about about proposing and for him to pounce on her like /that/ at the third part.
I just think that narrative wise, it would make more sense that after confirming that she does, in fact want to get married, he proposed instead at Cloudbreak Temple, or the amusement park, or the film center? Then maybe the dialogue can allude to them shouldering each other’s weight for the rest of their lives and finally entwining their fates because of their own efforts, and then maybe they can reference that bit from About Time that he quoted from his first birthday event. Sorry, I’m just thinking out loud here. And then, I don’t know. Maybe they do sleep together after, but it has to be as awkward and earnest as it is steamy instead of… whatever it is that we got.
Sorry for this long rant dnsbs. I just wanted to hop in and say my piece because I do think it was a wasted opportunity that they have this character whose words and actions were husband-coded (if that makes sense???) from the beginning only to do him dirty through this card.
so i've been trying to figure out how to respond to this ask and convey just how much i agree with everything, so i'll settle on this: it feels like someone split me in two and then had the second me send an ask with all of my thoughts on the second anniversary card. i am not even kidding. holy shit anon, this was scary but in the best way ever HAHAHA
like, for anyone stumbling upon this post, give this ask a read, it literally nails everything. not even a single part where i’m like ehh yeah, i guess, just-- pure, full agreement. gonna ramble below.
i’m actually laughing because i thought i was the only one who remembered artem mentioning that in the xmas partyland event?? i’d kill to know the writer breakdown for this game. because i swear the writers for the main story, artem’s personal story + cards, events, and this second anniversary card all feel so different.
and like you say, first anniversary was totally fine because it was not only discussed beforehand, but because the amusement park was a last minute location change to cheer mc up.
this is also what i mean when i say i was even more baffled with the second anni card after watching his newer cn server cards and events. his birthday ssrs and his personal story event are sooo good and have them talk about serious life matters and what the future holds and i just can’t believe ?? they didn’t talk about MARRIAGE? they talked about how their workaholic natures might be the downfall of their future relationship... in the context of helping a married couple.... but they have NEVER talked about marriage? ALRIGHT!
his personal story event also has him mention how his parents want to have dinner with mc, and how mc asks if it’s too soon (after like 8 months of dating might i add, this event dropped in the cn server in march-ish), so he immediately says he can tell his mom not yet. i just. how is this the same guy who sprung a public proposal on her without her knowledge? months later? artemrosa is kinda the “slow paced” relationship of the four boys, so i just............
also totally agree how this second anniversary card felt detached from his other cards. im still working on responding to an anon who asked how i’d want the card to go, and one of my first thoughts was that the proposal had no ties to anything special to them. you mentioning about time made me GASP because i was literally thinking that. i was kinda expecting him to quote it when i watched the card. like a reference to a movie they both love? reference to the beans? ANYTHING. but no???
gosh im sobbing bc ive always loved that line about shouldering each other’s burdens. and that would have fit so well for a proposal.. it was originally said in the context of them being work partners, but now “partner” is taking on a new meaning, and yet. their thoughts on shouldering each others burdens hasnt changed and UHGHHHH WE COULD HAVE HAD IT ALL ANON!!!
i ALSO agree that artem spending forever planning the proposal and then avoiding eye contact for half a month were like, the two things i liked. it was the one thing that made me think, oh yeah, there’s the artem i know. i just wish it was in better context ugh :((
AND THE THIRD PART OF THE CARD. can i put “as awkward and earnest as it is steamy“ in a frame and put it up on the wall. that’s all i was expecting. seriously. i feel like some ppl have been pissed at me and have been assuming im a prude for disliking the card, or something. but. NO? holy shit, i just wanted it to be in character. artem has always been awkward but endearing, but GENUINE and passionate. i feel like any sort of nsfw would be self explanatory but i guess not??? ughhh im mad again HAHA
