"I won't have peace. I'll be worried about you all the time."
"That's just love. Nothing you can do about that. I've never loved anything the way I love you and I've never fretted on anything more, but this time you can't stay and I can't go."

Thinking of Ravengard Ward AU where things proceed to the point of the events of the game with several results:
Levi, convinced by Gortash fighting off Bhaal is only possible with the Crown of Karsus and growing desperate with every day (as Bhaal pushes to control him with growing force), ventures into Mephistar to steal it from Mephistopheles.
While he is gone Ravengard goes to Elturel and, as Elturel falls to Avernus, descends there too. Duke's second son Wyll, an aspiring ranger, ventures into Hells alongside with counselor Florrick in a quest to find Ulder Ravengard. Levi returns from Mephistar to find all of his family gone. He wants to rush after them to Avernus, but Bhaal's hold on him is getting worse with everyday, and he's running out of time. He hopes his brother and Florrick know what they're doing.
With Ravengard missing and Florrick out of the city, Enver Gortash conspires to have proclaim the duke dead, making Leviathan Ravengard his heir and successor.
The Absolute Plan is set into motion, with only one god (Myrkul) involved. Levi and Gortash are forced to work with Ketheric bc the illithid colony is literally Under His House. Levi plans to betray the man and clean the shadow-cursed lands because this is what Jaheira and the harpers would have wanted. He when plans to use the newly gained with Absolute power to destroy Bhaal, Bane and Myrkul in one go. Gortash plans to obtain the power alike gods without any restrictions gods are forced under.
The first illithid-infected people start to appear. Jaheira and Minsc go to investigate, Minsc gets infected. Levi plans to use him as a leverage against Jaheira and Wyll if (then) they will disagree with his plans.
The incoming wedding of Duke Leviathan Ravengard and Lord Enver Gortash is announced. Lord Gortash is then going to be proclaimed the first Archduke of Baldur's Gate, with his husband's full support.
Wyll and Florrick meet Karlach and team up with her. Wyll is horrified to find out the guy who is dating his older brother sold Karlach to the deviless. Together they find Duke Ravengard and hijack the nautiloid.
The following (with all the in-game steps) events are:
Wyll and the team (Wyll is the leader) reach BG just in time to be informed of the passed wedding and the incoming inauguration of Lord Gortash.
They are horrified what has happened to the city in their absence. Ravengard, Wyll and Jaheira try to talk sense into Levi, Levi argues back what none of them know what it's like to have the God of Murder in their head all the time. What Bhaal was showing him more things these days, what he knows his destiny - he is a pureblood bhaalspawn, made out of Bhaal's dead flesh, he is destined to destroy the world. He is trying to convince them this is the only way he can do it, what this way he can destroy all gods for good, his Father included. What with the power the stones and Absolute gives them, he and Gortash can become new gods, can change the very rules of the universe - and wouldn't it be great?
The huge argument follows and Levi storms out, angry.
The next time they see him is at the inauguration, when, instead of proclaiming Gorash the new Archduke, Levi murders everyone but Gortash (who by this point is used to his husband's murder sprees and is successfully defended by Steel Watch) in the Hall.
Wyll and co walk into the Hall, expecting confrontation, but finding Levi in a pool of blood as Gortash tries to make him come out of the stupor.
Levi raises a desperate gaze at his brother and says: "Don't you see? It's getting worse. Bhaal is so angry. This is the only way. Why can't you see? Why no one but Enver can see it?!"
#dark urge: levi#ravengard ward au#durgetash#i love how this au in some ways is better#but in some ways is even worse#Levi is one of the Big Bad#his main motivation is getting free from Bhaal and not killing Ulder Wyll Florrick Jaheira Minsc and Gortash#everyone else can burn in hell for all he cares about#Enver Gortash is living his best life manipulating and malewifing his way into very questionable not exactly godhood#his husband growing more apeshit with everyday is unexpectedly upsetting tho#and ketheric died too early it freed brain from the part of the command#he KNEW they shouldn't have involved him at all#they could've done it just the two of them#he eventually plans to venture into mephisto's vault again but at this point he frantically researches all the way they can erase bhaal#from the existence bc fuck this levi is HIS. No gods are allowed between them#at some point levi stopped being a ladder to greatness and become important and gortash missed when this moment was#meanwhile tadpoled minsc is fighting bhaalists bc Levi ordered him to#Levi is like “you're a known enemy of Bhaal. Let's put it to good use”#he legit sent poor minsc to find a way to the temple of bhaal and find a way inside#also Orin is getting apeshit around the city too just for the sake of it and bc dad said so#Levi doesn't like it but he knows confronting his sister and killing her will make him into Abdel 2.0.#meaning either he will die in the fight or Bhaal will turn him into his meat puppet when Orin drops dead#so he'll send jaheira and co after her trail of dead bodies too#Karlach: Gortash is Evil!#Wyll and Ravengard: yeah we know. He is married to our Levi tho.#Karlach: 'your Levi' just killed everyone in this room but the only man I actually want to see dead!#Jaheira: it it's of any conciliation he doesn't look happy about it. Neither does Gortash

had a talk with my boss today that was basically “hey this recent bout of covid has put the writing on the wall for me and I can’t do the physical aspect of this job sustainably anymore, can you help me figure out something else, hopefully here at the aquarium cause I don’t want to have to move again and I like working here, or at least can you point me to the person who can help me figure that out” and fingers crossed but here’s hoping I can just land a desk job and still be able to see my birds from time to time

#so for my job I have to go to a lot of crime scenes and talk with witnesses blah blah blah a lot of the time it’s in an unsafe area and I#I always try to do my job in a safe way managing the different factors like timing but I always get the work done#so much so that last week I was asked to go canvas an area I had already been to to canvas five other times for a murder and had seen drug#deals and robbery and fights and all that go on while I was there#and I brought up that it wasn’t a good time for us to be there we weren’t safe at that time and I was told I needed to suck it up and do#what was needed for the case#flash forward to a few minutes ago my supervisor came to talk to me about another case#for a murder that I had previously talked about being upset about because I had walked by the place it happened 20 minutes before the murder#and was told that it doesn’t bother anyone else and basically to suck it up#so for this case the attorney had gone to my supervisor and told him that she thinks I’m ineffective at my job and she believes I’m afraid#to go out on the scene for investigative work because I’m a white girl#and my supervisor came to tell me that he’s going to be working with me on my cases for the time being to go out into the field and locate#witnesses and so on to show her that it doesn’t bother me and I’m not afraid#which like honestly all around this is fucking ridiculous I have done this job for nearly two years I have gone to the#site of multiple murders I have gone to witnesses addresses#I have been inside victims homes to talk with them all of this all alone#and honestly that attorney is a fucking bitch who has humiliated me for having feelings about cases before so it’s infuriating but hardly#surprising but the fact that my supervisor thought this was a legit enough concern to now go with me on my cases and go through all the#steps I’ve done and everything I just feel so disrespected and not valued#last week I took last minute leave because the cases were bothering me too much and everyone was telling me I needed to get over it and it#doesn’t bother them which like sorry but I feel like having to see someone’s brains on the pavement is upsetting#and it feels like I’m being edged out because I have human feelings about our cases#even though I have done this work and done it well for two years#I’m just really sad and angry about it

I love being plural. Oh, how i love being plural!
I love it, and all it's struggles. It is not to say to be plural does not hurt. That it cannot be torture or agony. Like it isnt sometimes the most woeful, painful part of my life sometimes.
When is anything permanent, at any point? The trauma slowed down. It will never fully stop, as life itself is designed to tear a soul apart, i do fully believe it cannot end. However, i will dance with glee at the opportunity to feel pain. To live, and to feel and to breathe. My gratitude has saved me.
I now thank my system for being my soul, for being as alive as it is and for continuing to fluctuate. I thank it for its confusing complexity and the secrets it keeps. Thank you for being as loving and daring and sometimes cruel as you are. For your differences and relations and your stories and lives. You make me Me and complete Micheal.
I love my system, my system was with me and helped me survive life. And now we are out to share one we're building together.

also the worst horror “what if things were fucked up” thing is when some alien thing is STATED to “not understand human morality” but in practice communicates and exercises and responds to everything exactly like a human would. Like omg this crazaayy alien thing will disembowel and turn someone into a sex slave and be totally innocent about it how mind bendinggg. But then this same creature will cry and mourn if you take their buddy away or also sustain some sort of extremely anthropomorphic mental trauma from being assaulted and it’s like wtf why would this alien think social seperation and sexual violence is bad and wrong in this particular way all of a sudden when it’s such a shilled point that she doesn’t see anything bad about it. i mean I guess it could be some meta commentary on perception and lack of empathy unless it happens to themselves but it never reads as that intelligent it always feels like someone trying to cram in as many edgy contrast tropes in as possible and eat it too. Sorry I was a hater when I was 12 and I’m a hater about it now

I am legitimately LIVID with my apartment complex right now because they are trying to charge me (again) for a trash violation when I have gone out of my way to follow their rules since the last violation last month
They’re like “we found this trash with your mail in it in the wrong place yesterday so we’re charging you $100″ but I haven’t even thrown out any trash since the weekend and I’ve been following their rules exactly so I don’t know HOW they found that shit

sorry but also?? 3.11 was SO fucking good and then this? it's so strange. at the end of 3.11 i knew ted was going back to kansas - but i thought that the show which is so big on hope and belief that i never thought the show would reinforce this terrible idea ted seems to have: that's he's just a coach. someone who, no matter how much they impact the narrative, inevitably end up on the sidelines while everyone else moves along. that's just so fucked up. cutting ted off from this community he has built is cruel. it just goes against the entire thesis of the show

the thing about pacifistic characters is that they don't see the good in people - they see the POTENTIAL in people. they see their potential to be good. that's why they don't kill - because they believe these people can grow, and possibly become better. however, most (good) pacifistic characters are still willing to give a bad guy a well deserving beat down. and truth is? most of the audience enjoys watching the bad guy get their comeuppance. like it's always VERY satisfying to watch the bad guy get beaten around a little. why? because the bad guy has hurt somebody, or even many people. the good guy giving them a beat down is giving them a small taste of their own medicine. but what separates the good guy from the bad guy is that he doesn't kill the bad guy. most of us want the satisfaction of the bad guy losing. ESPECIALLY if the bad guy is an abuser of any kind.
that's why i hate this scene. even if they likely didn't intend it to be, it feels like it's chastising the audience for finding enjoyment of watching bad people get hurt in any way.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
as i said in the previous post, this scene comes off as... preachy and pretentious. i'm sorry! but you can ABSOLUTELY take pleasure in the suffering of others - ESPECIALLY your abuser. there is NOTHING WRONG with smiling that your bully / abuser / whatever was "defeated" and will likely not mistreat you again. there's nothing wrong with being happy that your abuser was hurt. and AGAIN! i wouldn't have mind if this was just jun's opinion alone, and it gets challenged by other characters (no, heihachi doesn't count) but the WHOLE SHOW treats it as if this is the ABSOLUTE RIGHT THING and something you shouldn't debate. the whole show being filled with this just comes off as annoying, and removes any satisfaction you, the viewer, would've gotten from watching the fights.

personal rant below
I’m so glad I have a gyno appointment next month bc I genuinely cannot deal with just raw dogging this PMDD shit every month. it’s so overwhelming and frustrating bc I cant even log onto here without getting irritated and angry and frustrated with every little thing I see if it doesn’t necessarily align with something I like/agree with. and it’s like, dude, not everyone will agree with what I say or think the way I think and logically I KNOW that, but my anxiety is just telling me that it’s all so bad and completely irredeemable and. it’s just so frustrating. I’ve always lowkey wanted to be medicated but I’ve never been able to being in a black family that is only just now starting to come around to the thought of therapy. I’m just so tired of feeling like this and getting so emotional and worked up at every fucking thing in my life.
I legit almost CRIED earlier bc I couldn’t find my fucking graham crackers; can you imagine me talking to someone i love n care about with a different opinion that truly affects our core values????? I lose my shit every time I’m PMSing and I just hate it. I’m so tired of it. I wish I didn’t get as involved or as emotionally invested in every little thing and could just brush things off my shoulders but noooo PMDD has to make me lose my shit and go on a rampage and cry at every little thing. this is so exhausting.
and then my therapist is so goddamn shitty!!!!!! we’re supposed to have regular appointments and he just started cancelling them and only schedules me when I reach out to him for days at a time begging for a fucking response back. I’m just so exhausted and I don’t even start my cycle for another two weeks. I hate having to deal with this for so long man.

Being sad about someone dying doesn’t mean you “fell for a parasocial relationship”
It means I’m fucking sad that a young man had his life cut short by a terrible disease. It means that I watched Technoblade spend his last year making people laugh without burdening us with how serious his situation was, because that’s not what he wanted us to think about while we all enjoyed the block game.
Can we please just have empathy for each other for one goddamn day and not literally make fun of people for being sad?
