RL Story

CW: Divorce, addiction

It was a Friday, October 13th to be exact. Daniel and I are getting a divorce today. After weeks, he finally signed the divorce papers. I was devastated. It was so hard for me to take this step. But I had to finish it, for my Baby and also for myself, to finally forget Daniel. We met near the city hall, where we had an appointment with a divorce-case officer and judge.

Once there, I saw Daniel coming towards me. I honestly didn’t want to divorce him. I loved him, still, so much. 😥But... that's just the way life is. 😞... He looked at me... I wanted to hug him but instead I just said sadly, hi. Daniel seemed absent for a moment, staring at my belly. 🩵👶

He had this... empty look. Not sad or angry, rather.... emotionless.

With my eyes lowered, I just stood there. I struggled to hold back my tears. Exactly a year ago we moved together. I was so happy with him and now this. 😞

Me: I'm so sorry. I never wanted this! And I still don’t want it. I wish we could just go home together.

Daniel: Same, but...let's not get into that now. Relax and think about your Baby.

Me: What?

Daniel: It's gonna be okay. Trust me.... C'mon, let’s get this over with.

Me: Yea,,...whatever you say. 😞

Um.... well! Daniel and I didn’t get divorced today. The judge asked us why we wanted to divorce? D.'s & my statements left some question marks with the judge, I think? We have to wait six months, before we get divorced.... Daniel said that my jealousy (Tina, Irma...) & insecurity were the biggest probs for him in our relationship.😠... However, the real reason for postponing our divorce was bcs Daniel inherited Dominick’s plot & house. (division of property) Although I refused any claim to Daniel’s property!!

Me: Did you really, seriously mean what you said to them?

Daniel: I answered all questions honestly.

Me: Why didn’t you just give the real reason for our divorce? You took off!!! I didn't know where you were!! And my Baby isn't yours. This fact is the reason for our divorce! You can't handle that I'm pregnant. Or that we are both addicts, which would have been a good reason why we can’t stay together! 🤦‍♀️

Daniel: The juge asked me WHY, I left! You got it?.... You and my borther, your secrets drove me crazy. That fucking shit about Tina. I was overwhelmed with my shit, our drugs you and your delusions. I kept trying to make you happy! I only loved you and I only wanted you. But you just didn’t believe me. Be honest, it wasn’t my fault, just yours!! You don’t know what you want! And you can’t make decisions! But I’m not like N.! I don’t want to tell you what to do or how to live your life. You are responsible for yourself! Finally get it, or just stay with your soccer player and let him control you.

Me: What kind of shit are you talking?? Nico doesn’t do any of this to me.

Daniel: I talked to him! He said, you won’t be the same after he’s done with you. He told me this to my face!! And btw, I can’t stand Alex calling you Lexi!! 😠

Me: You must have misunderstood N. He isn't like that! He was just upset, bcs I confessed what I wanted from you the other day. Besides, you’re jealous too!!! Anyway.... I-.. I just can’t stand it around you anymore. And I’m sorry I was so jealous. I loved you so much. I wanted to do anything for you. I was terrified to lose you. I’m sorry. Sorry I was such a freak to you. But I didn’t do anything wrong with your brother, D.!! There was NOTHING between Alex and me!! IDK how many times I’ve had to say this damn sentence. Finally get it!....

Me: It hurts so much and it just doesn’t stop.... I don’t want to love you anymore. I wish you’d never married me. 😢

Daniel: Damn, I-... I'm sorry. I still struggle with that... stress disorder. Either I feel nothing-... or I boil with rage.🤦‍♂️

Me: It's ok.. I'm leaving.... See you in 6 moths. And.. stay off drugs, just... take care, Daniel. 😢

Daniel: Wait!

Me: I gotta go. Sorry. Bye!.... 😭

Daniel: I-...... love you.

I just wanted to get away from there. Far away from.... him.💔 Not really, but.... agh, you know what I mean. And I’ll see Daniel again sooner than I thought. Right after delivery. It was about that annoying name change. D. and I were officially still married, but I didn't want to give my Son his surname. D. is not his Dad, but N. Such a mess!!

Astro Observations 2

✨cancer in mercury natives threaten to leave the friend group their with in a joking sense, which isn’t bad but gets tiring at points 😭

✨having Sun in the 9th house can often indicate your father left you in a certain way, I have this placement and my father gained a condition that doesn’t make him the same anymore mentally while a friend of mine does not have their father in their life period 😢

✨people that have a libra midheaven are often pretty, I think it’s because of Libra’s desire to beautify things so having a pretty face in the workplace makes sense

✨Mars in the 1H can mean exceptional strength, but bad acne and or scarring of the face in some way shape or form

✨surprisingly enough, most millionaires or people with a lot of money have Uranus in 2H, I’d assume it’s because when in this placement it’s more or less of a high highs to low lows kinda vibe, if anyone does get windfall with this placement be sure to Manage your Money Wisely 🚨⚠️

✨people that are queer can usually have the following aspects in their chart:

moon trine Mercury Δ

Uranus trine Mercury Δ

Uranus trine moon Δ

HM: Venus in one of the mutable signs (Sag, Pisces, Virgo, Gemini)

✨Sag rising= Thick thighs save lives (loll)

✨Lilith in the 2nd house can mean you have self confidence issues 🥺

✨Fire signs seem to be very emotional, like sometimes a LOT more than water signs ig it’s because fire can be really destructive sometimes and they can’t contain so it just erupts, kinda cool to think about 🔥🔥

✨Pisces in Venus cannot see those red flags oml😭, if y’all have some good friends pls pls plsssss ask them to help you identify them if any, on the flip side tho, they can be single for a while and be quite content with it since Pisces rules isolation.

✨ Capricorn placements cannot see to save their lives😂

✨ I noticed air signs always have the habit of attracting friends that are really really intimidated by us🥴, i still don’t know why, but its like a thing, can anyone explain this???

End of thread, hope y’all enjoyed the observations

(Likes and reposts are appreciated! 💙)

My interpretation of Showtime

I’m not a lyrics person but thought I’d try to pick apart the song based on feels and observations. I don’t analyze every line though. Please don’t take this as the truth!

This line makes me feel that even though he resides in the UK, his real home is somewhere else. We all know he has a strong connection to Australia with him being conceived there and his first memory of music being there. Another part of me thinks about LA where the music industry is and how he must enjoy the sun and laid back vibes.

The first line seems directed at Bondy, Bob, and Benji. I still think about how they all resigned in March 2021 where their ideals probably didn’t line up with Van’s. I can imagine Van wanting to remove himself from the situation if he’s not wanted.

As for analyzing the lies, I feel like Van reads the stuff said about him online. How it was his fault the band broke up, how he’s a difficult person to work with, how he’s addicted to drugs, etc. and this is his way of dismissing them as they don’t know anything. Some people think it’s in response to Bondy’s statement and I’m not gonna lie but I still think about this comment on his statement that later got deleted. (She used to be friends with Benji’s fiancé but I think they had a fallout because they don’t follow each other anymore but I’m sure his fiancé told her stuff. 🫣)

Now I don’t want to think Bondy’s statement is all lies as I’m sure there’s more truth to it than lies but there are always two sides to a coin. They might’ve viewed things differently from how Bondy viewed them. The line seems generalized/directed at everything as a whole rather than at a particular person.

I honestly think the three of them leaving had a huge impact on Van. There was probably a time he thought about giving up on music but he still got through.

This slowed down part makes me think he’s reflecting on the day the three of them solidified their decision to leave. Van already doesn’t sleep much so him staying up for days really worries me. 😢 He has an active mind and worries a lot so he was probably in rough shape mentally and physically. He was probably reflecting on the situation, what he said or didn’t say, and what he did or didn’t do.

He mentions trying to find some space and I think this is reflective of how he deals with problems. He’s not the type to discuss things with people. He isolates himself and tries to figure things out on his own.

Despite these things I’ve picked out, I do think that Showtime is a positive song about overcoming hardship. But for him, it’s probably a personal song and a turning point in his life. I honestly think this is the only explanation we’ll get of what happened.

this is lowkey my first time requesting something and i’m a lil nervous, so i’m sorry if this doesn’t make sense or something!!!

so, essentially, i have an original species i’ve kinda come up with, who (usually) hide their faces behind these really ornate masks, and only really ever show their actual face as an act of like,,, really, really, uber deep intimacy with another person/people who are very important to them.

i was wondering how the boys, bad batch, delta, along with howzer and gregor would react to their s/o taking their mask off and showing them their actual face for the first time? (also if that’s like, too many characters feel free to take out whoever you want!)

thank you!!!

Don't be nervous! Sorry it's taken me a while to get to this one. Your species sounds very interesting! Kinda reminds me of the Death Watch Mandalorians in a way, too. Idk all their rules about removing the helmet when it comes to intimate partners, so I'll use mask/helmet interchangeably for whichever scenario people want to envision.

Rex, Tup, and Howzer get very emotional. It's like seeing a bride come down the aisle for the first time. They'll have a hand over their mouth as they reverently take in their partner's face, trying to commit whatever details they can see through their tears to memory. Then it's gentle touches and embraces from there.

Hunter, Gregor, and Boss are surprised if/when this moment comes. They can't fathom why they should be so worthy. As they realize what their partner's about to do, they'll stop the movement and insist they think about it. After reassurance from their partner this is what they want to do, they'll relax and enjoy the moment.

Jesse, Kix, and Tech would have asked early on in the relationship what the boundaries are, so they know what to expect. They'd be lying if they said seeing their partner's face wasn't important to them. So they'll want assurances up front that it's possible, and then they'll be 100% committed to the relationship.

Dogma, Fixer, and Crosshair act nonchalant on the outside, but deep down are freaking the fuck out. Does this mean what they think it means? Are they really that trusted, that loved by this person? Impossible. They can't even register the details of their partner's face right away because they're too busy trying to control their emotions.

Cody, Echo, and Sev will allow the moment to happen on their S/O's time. If they're nervous or self-conscious when the moment comes, they'll be quick to rush in with compliments. If they can't bear to have the mask off for too long, they'll help secure it back. They love their S/O no matter what they look like.

Fox, Fives, and Scorch will be so freaking excited for that moment. They'll want to make the moment really special, like put up decorations and bake a cake kind of special. If their partner tries to take off their helmet randomly without warning, they'll push it back on and insist they put a date on the calendar first.

Wolffe, Hardcase, and Wrecker are tempted to reach out and touch their partner's bare face. They hesitate a few inches away, wondering if it's too much for their partner too soon. With encouragement, they'll hold their cheeks, stroke, and eventually start to kiss. They will never grow tired of seeing such a beautiful face.

hi! ok I just wanted to ask someone who knows how tumblr works haha

so I found someone who writes amazing content so I decided to follow them. I binged lots of their fics earlier today and when I checked their profile again later, their profile doesn’t show. It seems they might have blocked me and I don’t know why :( I commented that I loved their fics and the comments are removed. my profile has my age and I am decently active on reposting & commenting on fics. This happened to me one other time too so I just am confused I guess :( I tried to message them but it said it wouldn’t go through so that makes me think I’m blocked? I guess I don’t know why a couple people blocked me? Just kinda made me sad bc I really enjoy their work but now I won’t be able to see anymore ☹️😢

happy to!! 💛

first thing you gotta remember that in all likelihood, your getting blocked is nothing personal. reasons for blocking someone on tumblr include but aren't limited to:

you don't have your age (range) listed in your bio/clearly visible on your blog

the age you have listed doesn't adhere to boundaries a blog has set (f.e. you're a minor, or it only says "18+" which i know many writers don't accept)

your blog is completely empty i.e. you don't post/reblog stuff

you don't reblog other people's writing

you spam like posts

you've never changed the default icon/header to something else

people don't vibe with the things you reblog

your theme is a colour they don't like

a lot of the time, it comes down to everyone's preferences. god knows i've been blocked by people and didn't understand why, but frankly it's none of my business. most likely, you won't ever find out, either. everyone is creating their own online space, and sometimes that means having a quick blocking finger. i'm sorry that you won't be able to read those stories anymore but you have to accept creators' boundaries.

however, there are some things you can do and try to prevent getting blocked in the future. these are only a couple of suggestions around tumblr etiquette i've picked up on over the years; if anyone else wants to chip in here, please do!!

1. make sure your blog is, by all appearances, that of a human being

this might sound stupid because of course, you are a human, but with the recent bot wars it's all the more important to double check for red flags.

check your url. does it include a random string of numbers, lots of dashes, just a name and an adjective? all of these have been indicative of porn bots and people might block you on sight.

change your icon and your header. yes, both of them. there are lots of creators on here who make wonderful fandom related headers and icons, or you can create your own with canva. just be sure to follow creators' rules and preferably reblog their creation

change your blog title. if your account is new, it will just say "untitled", which is another indication you might not be a human. use quotes, song lyrics, anything you enjoy

add a bio. this is where you put your name or nickname (you can make one up) age, age range, links to second blogs (if applicable), more quotes, whatever. i prefer my bio short and to the point, but that doesn't have to be you.

important: do this for all blogs and side blogs you use regularly. if you have a second blog for reblogging fics, you need to put up your age there as well, or at least visibly link to your main blog so creators can see you're not a minor. the harder it is to verify that you're an adult, the more likely it is that you will get blocked

2. know the different kinds of interactions on tumblr and navigate them well

there's a difference between liking, commenting, reblogging, and reposting, and it's important. lots of people use reblogging and reposting interchangeably, but that's actually incorrect and can lead to serious mishaps. let's dissect them one by one.

liking.

you're familiar with the like from other social media platforms. you tap a post twice or hit the little heart at the bottom of the post and it's added to your likes. wonderful, right? well. tumblr is a little different.

tumblr doesn't have an algorithm. let me say that again. there is no algorithm on tumblr. i guess there is, on the for you page, but that doesn't count because it's really shit. the only important thing on tumblr is your dashboard, and your dashboard only shows original posts and the reblogs of those posts from people you follow.

no one cares about your likes. your likes don't do shit. that's why creatives on here keep talking about reblogs. you need to reblog things on tumblr in order for them to get seen. it's a snowballing effect. likes are nice and all, but they're private. they're not contributing to a story or an artwork being seen by more people. they're essentially empty interaction. what's more, should a post get deleted for whatever reason, that post is gone for you forever.

i know some people use their likes as bookmarks for things they want to look at later, but i would strongly urge you not to do that. people block serial likers, because most of the time it is, sadly, very unlikely that they will come back and actually interact with the post again. that's just the way it is. we can thank tiktok and instagram for that. again, tumblr doesn't have an algorithm. if you want to genuinely support and encourage people on here, you need to do more than liking.

commenting.

this is a step up from liking, because you're actually interacting now. a comment will show up in the activity of the person whose post you left it on and of the original poster (op)—more on that distinction in a minute. comments are encouraged especially on ask/answer type posts, or as a reply to an earlier reblog.

when it comes to fanfic, there are, again, pros and cons. you can only leave a comment from your main blog, which means that even if you have a second account where you reblog fics, there's not necessarily a link between the two. this can lead to your getting blocked if you've never reblogged a fic to your main blog. on the other hand, if people comment on your fic without reblogging it, but they do reblog other people's fics, that can also rub creators the wrong way because it creates a strange sort of hierarchy: why those fics? why not mine?

important thing to note: i am not saying that to make anyone feel bad about "just" commenting, i just want you to be aware that this might go on in a creator's head. it has in mine. i'm very aware that this is a me problem, but it's also a reason why people might get blocked out of the blue, which is why i wanted to bring it up.

reblogging.

ah yes, reblogging. reblogging is the thing that makes tumblr tumblr, and it's so easy to do. you just hit the little 🔁 symbol at the bottom of the post, and boom, it's reblogged to your own blog. everyone who follows you can now see it on their dashboard, and if they reblog it, their followers can see it, and so on and so forth. every time someone reblogs a post from you, you will get a notification in your activity, and so will the op.

reblogs are the heart and soul of tumblr. yes, original posts are (usually) individual creations, but the community aspect of this site is born through the reblog. there are different variations on how to reblog. all are valid, because all help spreading posts around.

the empty reblog is the quickest option. there's literally a quick reblog option on mobile: if you hold your finger on the reblog button for a second or so, you will see your icon appear. if you swipe in that direction, the post gets immediately reblogged to your blog. something similar can be done on desktop with the xkit browser extension. it's fast, it's easy, it gets the job done. it's perfect for when you like a post but don't have anything specific to say/reply.

the reblog with tags is the second fastest option. tags, on tumblr, are sort of the sotto voce version of comments. yes, you can use tagging to organise your blog and make your posts easily findable (is that a word?) but the real fun begins when little asides are added. you can keysmash in the tags. you can put your thoughts in the tags. you can go full caps without it looking overwhelming in the actual post. if you're just starting to comment on things, the tags are a great place to start, because the actual post will keep looking the same; the tags are just a little additional bonus for both you and the creator. this is what you would use for the majority of posts that aren't works of art in any way, too, like text posts you want to find again, polls, photographs etc.

the reblog with additions though? oh boy. that's the real stuff. imagine it as clipping on your thoughts to the post, right there for everyone to see. you can add gifs, and memes, and change the font, and change the colour, and scream, and keysmash, and ramble without limitations. it's like catnip for the op. if you reblog a fic, a moodboard, a piece of art, a gifset, whatever it is, and you put your thoughts underneath? man, it's amazing.

side note: if you're new to commenting on people's fics and you don't know what to say, i highly recommend referring to this post. (btw i linked my reblog so it can act as an example of the different forms of adding to a post: there were other reblogs before mine, and i've added tags. useful in its content and as an example!!)

reposting.

this is where we need to be careful. reblogs are great. reposts are theft. where's the difference? reposting refers to you copying another creator's work, whatever it may be, and creating a new post without any indication to the original person's efforts. even if you do include their url, you will most likely get reported and blocked. because now, you've become the op of this copied post, and the actual creator will get absolutely nothing.

you will most likely have seen banners in fic communities that state something along the lines of "don't copy or translate any of my work to this or any other site". that's what this refers to. this would also include the following:

posting another writer's story to ao3/wattpad/another fic site of your choice without their permission. you can absolutely never do this. "but what if"—NO. never. fullstop.

some creators allow translations of their work, but you can only ever share those with their explicit permission and proper credit.

saving a gif to use without linking back to the artist. this is maybe my biggest gripe. yes, i know this site sucks at making gifs searchable, but still, you can't do this. and no, "credit goes to the original artist" doesn't count, where did that bullshit even come from? it makes me so mad. that's not giving credit, that's being lazy.

3. be nice, and have fun

this is fandom, and it's supposed to be a hobby. this is supposed to be a good time. none of us are getting paid for any of this. yes, we're all passionate about what we do, whether we're looking at other people's creations or we make them ourselves. we're fans of that common thing, and isn't that great?

just a little more internet etiquette that's not really tumblr specific but could be a good reminder for everyone:

not everything is for you, and that's okay

if something's not for you, scroll away

if you don't like what someone is posting, ignore them. mute them. block them.

do not ever, and i mean ever, send anyone hate. you don't know who's on the other side of the screen. block them and move on. life's too fucking short.

don't correct people's grammar/spelling. only assholes do that. if you can't help yourself and they're a person you've interacted with before, shoot them a private message and be nice about it.

don't offer unsolicited advice. i don't care if you want to give constructive criticism to help the other person. unless they've explicitly asked you to do that, don't. you'll get blocked so quick, and you'll ruin someone's day.

if you're reading a fic that's not finished yet, don't ask for an update. yes, you're excited for the story to continue. but "part 2", "when's the next chapter out", "more please" and so on are all things that put pressure on creators whether that's your intention or not. it gives us the impression that what we've already put out is never enough. and that sucks. by all means, be excited about what comes next, but not like this.

read!! old!! fics!!!! the beauty of tumblr being the way it is is that there's zero shame in interacting with older posts. it's not like you're liking a seven year old post on instagram. in fact, if you're commenting on a seven year old fic/gifset/moodboard/artwork on tumblr, i can guarantee you're gonna make that creator's day.

i'm absolutely positive that i've forgotten something in this post even though it's longer than several of my wips, so if any of my moots want to add something that'd be great!! in fact i'm gonna tag some of you because you know what? if you've read all of this you deserve a kiss. have a wonderful day 💛

I’ve gone back to rewatch 6x3 (Salem backstory) like three times since I heard of the summer joined salem willingly theory and I just never really stopped to FULLY appreciate how unfairly salem had been treated by the narrative before.. like I literally can’t stop ranting about how she’d not really done anything wrong! A grieving woman pulled the classic childhood ��mom said no so I’m gonna go ask dad and pretend I didn’t ask mom” and is cursed with immortality!

She’s a smart woman so when she realized they were fallible she made a plan that would potentially end her suffering/life and instead they ruined her life further… eventually Ozma comes back and she realizes that they together could create *paradise* (her words, she has no desire for ceaseless destruction unlike what the story of her falling into the grimm pool and all said) and replace the brothers as the worlds new deities.

He feels conflicted that there are people fighting/dying to spread their new religion and she says (at 21:51) “you said we needed to bring humanity together, in order to do that, we have to spread our word and destroy those who deny it.” Like that’s what fucks me up! It was *his* idea to unify them via religion which meant all along he was using *her* own suggestion of being gods to create paradise to instead bring *back* the gods that cursed her, the ones that she wanted to replace… she literally just goes on to say “don’t you see? None of that matters anymore” like it literally doesn’t! It wasn’t even her idea to spread it to the degree that it would require killing!

Oz could’ve just enjoyed the freedom to live with Salem forever but instead he withheld his true intentions and even tried to twist her cause when even after everything she went through she wasn’t some sort of bloodthirsty monster, she just wanted to create a beautiful world for the people who already existed and for their new family… Salem is literally so tragic 😢

#TeamSalemDidNothingWrong #…UntilAllOfThatMurderThatCameFromNeedingToPreventHerDeathOrNewTypeOfTortureAtTheHandsOfTheGods #EverythingIsBecauseOfOzma

hgfhdgsk step one COMPLETE!

step two is asking, is salem really being treated unfairly by the narrative? are we meant to take jinn as an objective source? she does begin the tale with “once upon a time”—it’s framed as a fairytale. are fairytales treated as the whole truth in any other narrative context? why does the scene get inexplicably washed in glaring red light when jinn says “salem blamed the end of the world on the gods” in a way that insinuates it’s a lie? why is it ruby, not jinn, who asserts that ozma “has to destroy salem,” and why does jinn grin when she tells him he can’t?

V6 builds from the groundwork laid in V5 regarding truth and deception and the importance of critical thinking—think of all the emphasis raven puts on telling yang she needs to ask questions and stop taking every answer she’s given at face value—and what do the kids do after jinn tells them this tale? they ask ozpin what his plan is, and they ask how they’re supposed to defeat salem if she can’t be killed. ruby actively chooses not to ask jinn any follow-up questions because she’s afraid of wasting the last one (<- this happens AGAIN with hazel in V8, the characters don’t ask jinn what salem wants because they assume that their assumption is correct, and that caps off a subplot about all of salem’s hench people bickering over their wildly different ideas of what she’s planning.)

STEP THREE,

is remembering that jinn is a djinn bound to a magical lamp whose three questions were humorously equated to wishes, and ambrosius makes it clear that he gives people exactly, literally what they ask for, and ruby doesn’t ask jinn to tell them the truth about salem, she asks “what is ozpin hiding from us?”, and then you have to smack yourself in the forehead a bit.

step four is going back to the beginning and paying attention this time. what does salem say about humankind? what does she say about the society ozma built after the great war? how does her tone change from one to the other? what does volume one have to say about the nature of evil? is the conspiratorial, paranoid cult of secrets and lies keeping a comatose young woman in the basement until they find a suitable vessel to overwrite with her soul really people the narrative expects us to agree with? is this a good system? what is it for? who does it serve? is ozpin right and ironwood wrong or are both of them wrong in opposite ways? is salem really describing her own methods, or is she mocking ozpin for the self-sabotaging failures of his? what does the narrative think about chosen ones who try to stand alone against the darkness? how does it engage with the concept of heroism? how is it deconstructing the fairytale ethos at the heart of the huntsman system? are the things the characters believe about the grimm accurate? why aren’t there any grimm plaguing kuo kuana, despite it being the most densely populated city in the world and not participating in the huntsmen institution? how is salem’s part of 6.4 annotating her portrayal in 6.3? why does the narrative show us the rage and terror behind her decision to rush to atlas ahead of schedule before ironwood speculates that her greatest strength is a complete lack of emotion? why does she fly off the handle every time someone lies to her? why does the narrative make such a huge point of establishing that no one knows what she wants and then conclude that subplot with the characters actively choosing not to verify their assumptions? what might the narrative be setting up through salem’s treatment of cinder in V8, through salem losing the power struggle because she won’t commit to punishing cinder for her defiance? why does the woman who loathes the gods and praises humanity’s strength and wisdom and resourcefulness and passion really hold ozma, god’s chosen one, in such contempt? WHY DOES SHE LET HER HOSTAGES GO? and so on and so forth.

step five is rewatching the lost fable again for the nth time and staring at a wall and thinking about “creatures known as faunus bore fangs and claws and were locked away in cages” and “frightened whispers that spoke of a terrifying sorceress who commanded dark powers in the wilds, among beasts and monsters” and putting that together with how grimm are used to symbolize the persecution of faunus and ozpin transparently suspecting blake as salem’s spy and how the world of remnant episodes on grimm and faunus and the faunus origin myths all strongly imply a cultural perception that faunus are sort of grimm-adjacent, and having the oh. OH moment where you realize that salem is a faunus and her arc is intricately connected to the faunus narrative.

step seven is going down the feverish rabbit hole of ‘fairytales of remnant’ and tilting at silver-eyed windmills until your brain is thoroughly cooked, at which point you can start yelling on street corners about how the god of animals was a grimm lady and silver-eyed warriors are psychopomps and summer rose is salem’s second in command and rapidly approaching ozma apostasy arc and ozlem reconciliation because lord knows they deserve it, and so forth, ideally with a bullhorn.

step eight is getting cold-clocked by volume nine tearing the last vestiges of ruby’s faith in the huntsman system to shreds like a pack of rabid hyenas so that she can finally tear herself free of the fairytale cult that tried to eat her

and that’s the normal rwby fan to salem club pipeline in a nutshell.

#rwby v9 spoilers #‘we finally had freedom’ god.#she would have been blissfully happy in that cottage forever

I think that anyone on twt these past couple of days would say it’s a toxic nightmare.

Kths & Jjk’s are fighting to the death & it’s such a shame - ofc anyone that loves Tae is so sad at the sabotage he has faced & also that the majority of the fandom has moved on so quickly to 3D.

It’s up to us to keep streaming & try to achieve what we can for that gorgeous, talented man.

But that’s not Jungkook’s fault- he wants to get his work out on the world stage & ofc he’s going to take advantage of the huge push he’s getting from Hybe - why wouldn’t he?

Jungkook is hugely marketable & he’s said he wants to be a huge pop star - he’s already taken off like a rocket & I fully expect him to have more bb #1 & probably a Grammy at some point.

During Layover, it became extremely obvious that the majority of Taekookers are Jk bias - numbers don’t lie & Tae, while he’s done so well, could have done so much better.

And now, large numbers of Taekookers are stopping being Taekookers.

But from what I’ve seen, it’s not because they blame Jungkook for Tae’s lack of promotion etc. That’s down to Hybe & no one else.

Sadly, it’s become obvious that Tk just aren’t together anymore.

Because what man would completely ignore his bf’s debut, never like or comment on his tiktok dance challenges or post a single thing for him, while constantly talking about & praising another man & having a holiday with him?

Unless you believe Jungkook is a total selfish dick (I don’t think he is) that behaviour just doesn’t make sense.

And let’s be honest, the whole ‘silent support’ & ‘BH won’t let him support’ rubbish that Taekookers use to self soothe…. That just sounds ridiculous.

Jungkook has told us he does what he wants & makes his own decisions- why would we believe that he can’t drop a like on a tiktok?

Personally, I tried really hard to believe Tk are still together.

But things change, relationships fail & we have no idea what their lives are like.

So yeah, I’m really sad about it (sounds a bit stupid when it’s people I’ll never know🤷‍♀️) & my heart hasn’t wanted to face the truth for months 😢

But they’ll probably remain friendly- 10 years + in the same group will mean there’s always a connection.

Hi anon!

So, this seems to be a hot topic again after Jk's short live. And I kinda get it.. maybe... but I also don't.

The thing that I get is that people are obviously confused about the total lack of Jk doing anything concerning Tae's debut. I also expected him to do something, nothing big, but something... and he didn't. So I get the disappointed and confused part a bit.

What I don't get is the negative conclusions around it. If anything Tae and Jk have been showing us their closeness this year. You think they broke up... but when would that have been? The Dream premiere was very clear, them at Yoongi's show together was all good, Tae supporting Jk at Inkigayo.. all good. So I absolutely don't think they broke up inbetween somewhere. I also don't think Jk doesn't care for Tae.. even if they are only friends... they are obviously very close and Jk loves Tae a lot. I also don't think Jk is selfish and their relationship is onesided/lopsided. Tae himself said Jk will do whatever he asks almost. If you look at Tae and Jk's interactions... Jk loves Tae just as much as Tae loves him. Which bring me to Tae's behavior. Nothing in Tae's character or behavior makes me think he would let Jk use him or let him walk over him like that. Basically... I just have trust in their characters I think. I think they genuinely love each other.

SO what could be the reason for Jk not doing something? I think the clue may lie in his recent live. He was clearly talking pr-strategy when he mentioned not having done a live to make anticipation stronger. He might have also been advised again anything Tae. I know I'm gonna get shit for this, but my reason for thinking so is that Jk not posting anything Tae also doesn't make sense if you think of them as only members or friends.

I know some make this out to be that Jk doesn't want to encourage Tkkrs. If Tae and Jk aren't together as we think and are just close friends... Tkkrs won't be much of a factor in Jk's decisions. Tae as a friend would matter way more to him than a bunch of shippers being wrong.

I don't know what the deal is exactly, but I am quite sure it isn't that Jk doesn't support or love Tae.

#taekook #jk live #got a lot of asks about this #not gonna answer all of them

My thoughts as I watched the Percy Jackson and the Olympians season 1 on Disney+

Episode by episode random thoughts below, but overall I loved it. The actors are really good at what they do and I love who they chose as Percy, Annabeth, Grover, Luke, Clarisse… etc.. all of them were fun to watch.

Yeah I was disappointed with the ways many of the scenes were done, but I also don’t think an exact copy of the book would have been relevant now. It’s definitely been adjusted to suit the time period and just because they were changed doesn’t automatically make them all bad changes.

Episode 1:

They’ve definitely made some changes which is obvious. They always do. But I love Walker as Percy. He does such a good job. “Okay… Why?” Was hilarious.

Somehow they made Sally even more amazing and her “death” even more sad. Though it’s an interesting change to make Sally do a lot of what Book Percy did in that fight.

Episode 2:

Luke and Percy’s relationship is making what’s coming even worse! The pat on Percy’s shoulder when leave Hephaestus’ cabin 😢 they are really showing how close Luke made himself to Percy.

Percy’s sass! Him during the waiting time of capture the flag was perfect

I kinda wish they had kneeled when he was claimed but meh I’m still good with this.

“I am Sally Jackson’s son!”

Episode 3:

“Oh geez. You seem busy. I’ll come back.” Poor Percy facing the Oracle

Medusa’s place brings up a lot of deep questions. I kinda like the way they took this. Bringing attention to the actual horrifying truth that is the gods’ cruel punishments is something I appreciate.

The conversation they have after everything is done was a nice touch. Letting us see them actually talk things out and see the bond slowly forming is amazing.

Episode 4:

The moment Percy changes places with Annabeth was perfectly done. Loved it!

Athena “my child embarrassed me so she can die for all I care” vs Poseidon “like hell I’m letting my son die and if that means I make a water tornado to snatch him from the air then I will”

Episode 5:

I love the popping their heads up from behind the concrete when talking to Ares.

Making it modern like Ares starting a fight on Twitter is so cool in a way. Making them “relevant” to the modern world is such an interesting take. I’m looking forward to seeing if they do it with the others too.

“Push down a flight of stairs” is very suspicious. That’s exactly what Percy said when choosing Annabeth.

😂😂Percy is completely on top of this entire park being a creepy ghost place lol though the music break was great

Grover showing off his genius with his flattery of Ares!

Hephaestus changing his mind was good but Annabeth standing up to him (and her mother) was better!!

Grover worked out who stole the bolt?!?!? This would be different than the books, but I’m still willing to see where they go with it.

Though also a thought… we are definitely getting a lot more of the gods than the books gave us. Never saw Hephaestus and it seems like we are gonna see Hermes next episode.

Episode 6:

Oh. They were wrong about who did it. That’s good at least. Figuring it out so early would not have been a good choice.

Annabeth stealing from the god of thieves 😭 even if he let her do it, for those couple of minutes it was hilarious

Santa Monica was more heartbreaking than I thought. Show Percy was really expecting his dad. But the fact he was actually there is something

THEY WERE LATE!! Wow what a change!

4 pearls!!

Episode 7:

The lack of the Crusty fight is actually disappointing honestly

No DOA Recording… I loved that one. Dead on Arrival was just clever. And no pay raise conversation 😢

“Only suckers wait in line” showing your New York City there Percy

Oh no. Now we are down to 3 pearls. Show universe is really out here making Poseidon a better father by actually caring. First he was actually waiting to see Percy and then he gives 4 pearls.

Annabeth isn’t with them anymore 🤔 I don’t like that.

“Sanctuary” for just a second I was impressed with Hades then he explained then I realized it was incredibly pragmatic of him.

Wow. I hold no animosity to show Poseidon like I do Book Poseidon. The immediate answer to Sally… Wow!

I hadn’t really realized I had animosity to book Sally but Show Sally actually did her best to prepare Percy for the world where Book Sally just ignored it.

Woo! Let’s go Ares fight!

Episode 8:

And so begins Percy’s absolute hate against Ares that even transcends a goddess erasing his memories.

Ares didn’t curse Percy though…

Yo… Poseidon surrenders for Percy

And Show Zeus is better than Book Zeus at least for now. He’s at least willing to entertain the idea of Kronos rising.

Oh Luke… I was right… this was worse than the book

“I didn’t think you’d give them to Grover” that is the most heartbreaking line

The mouthing off to Kronos is awesome. Love it “Are you kidding me” he says 😂

And sadly, but also thankfully, no getting rid of Gabe through Medusa’s head by Sally (though still got him lol). Seems like they made him not as abusive on screen as the books showed him to be.

Ok so, strange request. Headcanons for Meister Maka with a weapon gn s/o

(blatantly assuming that either soul doesn’t existence or her never meet Maka)

If the request match up too well then you could make s/o’s weapon form a scythe too.

I WOULD LOVE TO!

(Lowkey my reaction to my first request)

ANYWAYS LET'S START! (Prolouge, ⬇️)

So Maka, we all know Maka is a very loyal person to her friends, and you are no exception as her weapon partner.

I feel like at first, Maka and you, would have a bumpy relationship.

She's focused on making you stronger than her father Spirit, so I feel like she would be kind of closed off at first. She's very focused on her goal and doesn't want anything to get in the way. Not to say that you guys don't get along, she's just very focused.

However, as time comes, (maybe something would happen with you, etc you got injured or sacrificed your self for her on a mission) the more you she realizes what she's kind of been doing? She's like "aw man bro I've been treating them like poopy dookie." (NOT EXACT WORDS LMAOOO)

Once she realizes what she's been doing I think she would feel bad, like really bad. So she would come up to you and apologize that her ignorance got you hurt. poor bby.

So you guys eventually build a strong bond together, and you always look out for each other. She believes in you, as her friend and as her weapon.

ROMANTIC HC⬇️⬇️

She's always had problems with love, especially because of Spirit, she has never really been around a healthy type of love, so she's always shut off the idea of love at first. Not wanting to be cheated on or treated badly like what Spirit did to her mother :((

But once you come along, as her scythe partner, she feels things that she never would've thought she would feel before. But she's afraid, afraid of everything that might happen if she says something. She's afraid she might lose you.

But eventually something happens, and she can't hold it back anymore, so she tells you, most likely in private ofc. I don't think she would tell you in front of everyone because this is a very vulnerable moment for her.

When you accept she's like mind blown, she stands still for a few min, lowkey making you worried, but then gives you the biggest hug 😢

During missions she would become a lot more protective for you, not wanting you to get hurt a lot and doesn't let you sacrifice yourself for her. She's just worried she's going to lose you, so she's a bit up tight at first, so you're going to have to reassure her that you're okay and want to help her achieve her goal in making a death scythe.

If you do get injured during battles she would get incredibly upset at herself if she thinks it's her fault, and stay beside you in the nurses office and hold your hand. If you got injured bc you were being a dumb dumb she's going to ridicule you (out of loveee bc she cares about you a lot and doesn't want you to get hurt.)

She's a little shy to affection, so if you wanna kiss her you're probably going to have to do it first. She's not used to being super vulnerable around people. But she would hold your hand in between classes, and if for some reason you don't kiss her yet she would get a little worried that you don't like her anymore, but eventually build up the courage to give you a little kiss on the cheek. (She wants you to shut up after it tho, don't ever bring it up or she will get embarrassed and Maka chop you LMAO)

During training and everything she always want to make sure she doesn't overwork you, and always offers for you to take breaks before continuing or bandaging you up if anything happens. However she is adamant that you keep up with your studies, but bc you are her partner she will try to be patient with you and will help you study, she's very proud of you no matter the outcome of your studying. At least you tried and that's what matters.

Lowkey makes food for you after missions too, you come home and even tho she's tired she'll sit you on the couch and make dinner for you, she'll blush really hard if you come over and help her cook. (Do it, help her.)

(THIS WAS REALLY LONG I'M SO SORRY I GOT IN THE ZONE. Might make a part 2?? If you want?? This was really fun to write about)

Previous / Next

Start

Transcript ⬇️

Pic 1: I had a date with Daniel. I wanted to surprise him and somehow recreate our wedding night. Afterall I had a lot to catch up with my cute husband… So I spent most of the day in the bathroom. I put all that nice stuff on my skin, to be especially….. pretty for him. 😏

Pic 2: D. wasn’t home. He had an appointment and had to go to his therapist. But Daniel knew I wanted to surprise him. He didn’t know exactly what I was going to do? He just hoped it was about sex. This is actually all he wanted from me, after we haven’t really slept together for 3 months, but I had something else for him too.

Pic 3: I wanted to look exactly like on our wedding day two months ago. But I didn’t want to wear my wedding dress. Would be a bit too much & stupid to walk around in my wedding dress at home. Anyway, I couldn’t wait for him to come home. I was so happy that he married me.🥰 I wanted to show him how much I love him and how much he means to me. The last weeks were really hard, but Daniel was always there for me & supported me in everything. Nevertheless, a feeling of insecurity haunted me constantly. The fear of being abandoned. But you know, I’m always scared. So yeah, it’s not really something new.🤷🏻‍♀️

Pic 4: IRL I never use powder, except in summer maybe, to fix my make up. I don’t like that matte look on my skin. That’s why I use tinted moisturiser, bb/cc-cream, or a sheer liquid foundation with a glowy finish. BUT with SPF, of course!!! Agh, yea. I’m a total freak when it comes to skincare & make up. I could give you a 2 hour talk about retinol and some other important anti-aging ingredients and you would think I was some kind of skin expert. But my fav is glycol!! It makes your skin so perfect. Sorry! I shut up now! 😶‍🌫️😳

Pic 5: Where is he? Why doesn’t he come home to me? He knew that I had prepared something for him. I called him… I was so disappointed with Daniel...... He ran into Jacob and somehow Daniel got high. He couldn’t drive his car and barely move. And now he had to wait for Dominick to pick him up and bring him home.............. I don’t want to lie. Two days ago Daniel and I took something, I think we started to relapse. He didn’t want to, but I was so mad about this damn thing with Mr B., so I couldn’t sleep with Daniel again. But Sex wasn’t really the reason why we did this shit. We were both kind of depressed. We have learned that we’ll have to face/see the 4 men who did this terrible thing to us 3 monts ago. And Idk, but everything came up that day. And since we still had some of that drug left, we just…. took it.😔

Pic 6: I framed our wedding pics and put them on the wall. Although I wasn’t planning on hanging our pictures, I wanted to keep them in a photo album because I don’t like weddings. But I did it for him and I knew he would be happy about it, but that night….. he didn’t really care.

Pic 7: He knew he fucked up. I wasn’t mad at him because he was high, but because he secretly did it and thought I wouldn’t notice. I know he just wanted to prevent me from relapsing, but lying makes me sick!! Especially in a relationship. But Idk? Daniel just didn’t get it?! He was constantly trying to keep things from me secret just to protect me. That’s exactly why I thought he left me forever, when he-….. decided to go away for a while. I just didn’t trust him in the end anymore. But I was wrong! Really wrong!😢💔

Pic 8:

Daniel: I’m so sorry! I screwed up! I really messed up.🥺

Me: I don’t believe you were just with Jacob! Who knows what else you did. I’m not like Irena! I’m not gonna wait for you at home, while you’re hanging out with some bitches you don’t even remember.

Daniel: Irena was just bullshitting! I never did this!

Me: YOU, don’t remember it!! But she does! However! I don’t care! I’m gonna piss off!

Daniel: Yea? And… where the hell you wanna go?… Philip? Your comfort toy.🤨

Me: Ugh! 🤦🏻‍♀️

Pic 9:

Daniel: I swear, I’ll never leave you alone again. And now come to me babe…. I don’t to wait, I’m gonna do you right here…. You make me so hard, you like this? 😏

Pic 10:

Daniel: Come on, I just touched your tits! You don’t have panic attacks anymore! So what’s your prob now? We’re married, damn!… I think you’re just playing with me! 😠

Me: I want you too! But not that way! That’s not how I-…. wanted that night to be! I You’re acting like a horny dick! Like Mr. B.! And I’m not playing with you, I slept with you yesterday even though-…

Daniel: What? What now? Should I wait another 3 months? You’re my wife! Why can’t I touch you? What have I done to you? And why are you comparing me to your fucking boss? 😡

Me: No, I can’t talk to you about it now. I want you to calm down first! And besides, you know everything, I don’t understand why you react that way? You fucked up tonight, not me! Think about it before you talk to me. 😔

Pic 10: I left him alone. I think he had another outburst of anger, which has been happening a lot lately. I mean, since he was discharged from the hospital! Actually, he’s been doing quite well since our wedding and after our honeymoon, but maybe I was wrong? He was always so busy helping me because of my panic attacks and now, he was slowly losing patience. Which I could totally understand. Still, he KNEW, he was NOT the trigger for my panic, so Idk why he thought I was playing with him??.... I guess he was just frustrated because he screwed up tonight.

Apologies in advance for requesting this. I definitely didn’t think I would submit it but I needed a bit angst/feels:( (I’m cruel to myself)

Prompt:

“H happy birthday, d daddy. Me, mom and padfoot are doing ok. Uncle Remus says you are in a happy place. But I still wish I could hug you.”

“Ohhh Harry love, *sniff* I’m sure james would’ve wanted that too”

(Reference to the idea of the prompt in the link below. Caution: it will hurt😢)

https://www.tumblr.com/nightmers/114762861949/happy-birthday-james-potter-27-03-1960

Anon! This made my cry, why?? No, but actually it’s such a beautiful, if very sad, prompt. Thank you for showing me!

Now, I’m really busy this week so I’m sorry that this isn’t the longest prompt, but I wanted to write this for you anyways so I hope you’ll like it.

moments of missing you

Five years. Four months. 27 days. That’s how long it’s been…since the last time she’d heard his infectious laugh…seen his hazel eyes sparkle with mischief…kissed him like they’re forever seventeen…

Five years.

Sometimes she can’t wrap her head around how much time has passed. Like, whenever Harry‘d outgrow another one of his shirts or say something so complex that it takes her a moment to adjust to the idea of him growing up. Then, time seems to fly by and dissolve between her fingers as she tries to hold onto the good moments…the moments spent with Harry and the boys.

But there are moments where time seems to drag on. Cruel in its unrelenting ability to somehow make a day seem like a week when only yesterday, a week had seemed like a day.

It’s the moments where she’d sit at the kitchen table to look, for the millionth time, at the photographs of their family before that night on Halloween — when they were so young and happy…and alive.

She’d lie awake in their bed after, praying for it to be morning so she wouldn’t have to stay there, where it is so obvious that this bed is too big for one person alone.

„Happy Birthday, Daddy…“

Harry‘s quiet whisper reaches her ears, finally getting her out of her head as she tears her eyes away from his gravestone to look at their son.

„…We’re doing good, Mum, Padfoot, uncle Remus and I…he says you’re in a happy place now. I hope he’s right…but, I still wish I could hug you today.“

Oh god, James…how badly I wish you were here with us.

Lily can’t help her tears now, as they trickle relentlessly down her cheeks. She reaches out to take Harry‘s little hand tightly into hers, squeezing it as she tries to manage a smile in hopes to comfort him.

(Her smile is strained and too tight and Harry doesn’t fall for it anymore, but he spares her his own, most convincing smile regardless, because he can tell his Mum needs that today)

„Oh, Harry, love…“ Lily whispers shakily, as she crouches down next to him. „I’m sure your Dad would’ve wanted that too.“

#anon ask #asks open #hp #james potter #lily potter #baby harry potter #lily lives #but james died #i’m not crying i swear #look at the link above #amazing art
