what do you think of that scene where katara kissed aang on the cheek?

This one?

Look at the framing. It’s framed completely through Aang’s POV, and he blushes, because he has a crush on her.

But Katara? I don’t see anything indicating she viewed this as a romantic gesture. People seem to forget that in many cultures (including some of the ones ATLA is inspired by), kisses are a common greeting. Even in cultures where it isn’t as common, platonic kisses (especially from mothers, which the show explicitly compares Katara and Aang’s dynamic to on multiple occasions) are not weird or unusual.

To be completely honest, from Katara’s POV, this kiss has the energy of a mom being proud of her son for doing a good poopy in the toilet. The idea of it being flirtatious is honestly a bit nausea inducing.

Oh and bonus:

If kisses are inherently romantic, should we be sending Sokka to jail for Alabama crimes or what…

#rewatching it the framing tells the whole story #this relationship was always framed through aang and never katara #she is an accessory that swoops in from the sideline to deliver Aang his good boy prize and disappears #just how the narrative treated her towards the end #a tragedy #atla #katara #anti kataang #canon critical

Often times, people assume Cassandra is the youngest sister because she’s the brattiest and most dramatic one. Her actions are fitting of the spoiled youngest child but nope, she’s the middle child and the actual youngest child is more sensible and doesn’t brat as much

Arya made a face and hugged the wolfling tight. Nymeria licked her ear, and she giggled. (Arya I, AGoT)

--

“Girls don’t shave,” Arya said. “Maybe they should. Have you ever seen the septa’s legs?” She giggled at him. “It’s so skinny.” (Jon II, AGoT)

--

"Stay away?" Mercy giggled. She was a giggly sort of girl, was Mercy. "No. I've got to get closer." (Mercy, TWoW)

Mercy was a giggly sort of girl...and so was Arya, once upon a time.

#arya stark #canonarya #asoiaf #valyrianscrolls #Arya's supposed to be trying to forget her identity but through her aliases she's actually rediscovering herself in this essay I- #she was so happy and giggly in the first book oh my god 😭 baby she's just a baby #this isn't to say that I think she's /as/ giggly as Mercy is supposed to be but she definitely has that side to her #that hasn't really had the chance to be shown considering everything she's been through #the way she was at her happiest in Winterfell because by her second chapter the Trident incident had already happened... #please let TWOW be the end of her suffering she deserves to be happy 😔 #makes me so sad for her but also makes me appreciate the writing cause George has been delivering excellence since the beginning with her #Arya II (AGOT) will always be among my favorite chapters

My dearest is going to the hall of fame of dramas. It's just so good.

Gil Chae and Jang Hyun are soulmates. Truly. They both are so strong and so silly even in these times. Gil Chae still dreaming about her dearest and sulking that it's not him when she woke up. Girl, you are the finest thing on that timeline and I love you for that. And Jang Hyun forgetting about the injury and straight up starting the teasing because she said "my dear". My dear. MY DEAR. MY DEAREST.

I can't talk about them anymore before I combust. Knowing that they survive at least till the penultimate episode is my solace because they're just so adorable together. All their little flirtations and teasings while surviving. It makes it more tragical actually. But it is just so good.

#my dearest #kdrama #nam goong min #ahn eun jin #never knew they would have this much chemistry but god they're perfect #Namgoong min always delivers though #ahn eun jin has so perfectly built up her place #she's growing so well #gil chae is going to be my top favourite female leads of kdramaland #she's that good and it's only just starting

We had a wind storm this weekend and these two took offense to the wind making Sounds and injured themselves. Artemis (bottom) bruised one side of her face up, but she's acting fine otherwise so she'll probably be back to normal in a few days.

Stan, on the other hand, bruised his left eye socket and was acting Off with a capital O. He's normally not very active, his legs don't work all that great and he can't catch a deep breath because of his messed up ribs and stuff, but he was lethargic and not eating/drinking normally, so I swapped him into Joslin's appt slot today and took him in.

It wasn't my normal vet again, and I told her that Stan is a hot mess, and she felt him up and told me well his abdominal cavity sounds weird, I said yeah he's got messed up air sacs. She goes well, one of his legs is atrophied more than his other, and I said was it his right one because that's the one that was worse as a baby and doesn't work right, and she goes yeah it was the right one. She goes, it feels like his kidneys are too big, this could be a case of gout, we can xray to look for it. Now, I know it's not gout, but an xray will either enlighten her on the fact that I'm not joking about how messed up this bird is, or it will show her what's actually injured, or both.

So she does the xray and she calls me into the back room and she goes well. it's not gout. his kidneys are actually small and I was feeling his messed up air sac. there's a lot wrong here, but I'm looking at his last xray and there's a lot wrong there, and most of it is the same. he got a little better in some ways and a little worse in other ways, but the issue is that it looks like he jammed his hip joint and injured it a little, possibly from landing wrong.

you know. an injury. like from the ultimate panic of the Wind Making Sounds.

Anyway he got some antibiotics against infection and some pain meds and we'll give him a couple of tube feedings until he's not feeling crappy. For now he's asleep in my room on a roost.

#stan the peachick #artemis #peafowl #peacocks #peahens #birds #my pets #animal medical #it always cracks me up to take my birds to the vet #I delivered him to the xray room #set him down #and said if you need him to lie down just #you know #put your hands on his wings by his shoulders and tip him #he'll just let you tip him into lying down #and as I left I heard them doing so #and a quiet 'I wish all birds were like this' #this vet is being trained by my vet I think #I miss my vet she was almost always right #this one is 0 for 2 on her guesses vs mine so far #I adore the techs though #the one came to get a photo of stan for his son and #I said find me a clipper and I'll give you a feather tip for him #and gave him one of Stan's baby eyes

Carmilla: rants about there being discrimination against women in Dracula's court

Meanwhile

Dracula when Carmilla insults him and his dead wife in front of everyone: Well ok I'll let it slide

Dracula when Godbrand makes a valid point: The fuck did you say to me you fuck!?

Well there's discrimination all right

clearly, Dracula jugs that Respect Woman Juice because he's such a loving husbando <3 /s

I'll never be over Carmilla's out of nowhere "There are perhaps four other women in this castle and they all glare from the edges, either disempowered by posturing man-children or too paralysed by sheer fucking rage to do anything"

one, there are only three women in the castle, Carmilla being one of them. two, ah yes, the sheer fucking rage of the most tragic victims of sexism in the story, these randos right here

I remember when they were about to save the day, but the Evil Penis-Endowed Men told them to shut up and cook blood in the kitchen because they're just women <3

well I would remember, if they bothered to be characters.

Then again, NFCV's idea of showing Carmilla's abuse at the hands of a man is a flashback that only depicts her killing her master like a true #girlboss, because god forbid we see her in any other light. Why bother actually showing us the pain she went through and fuels her ever-growing rage, when she can just talk about how she deserves to take stuff from stupid old men like the most shallow parody of a radfem? 🙃

something something the abused woman is always shown in a strong light and are only told in passing of her weak moments such as her having nightmares (?), while the abused men are humiliated and fetishized. gotta do the big think on this 🤔

#anti netflixvania #yeah i also have thoughts about carmilla #she should have been like ratigan imo #keeping a cool calculated façade but always with this boiling rage inside her #and i'm perfectly okay with her reacting to her trauma with rage i don't mean that i want to see her cry #but making her go all “men bad” is hard to take seriously #it feels political just for the sake of being political without actually delivering a message #especially since nfcv doesn't show sexism even among the stupid ignorant backward humans #in berserk casca couldn't walk two steps without being reminded of her gender and sadly it makes sense for the setting
