#someone probably has ngl

[biceratops7]

uuuughghghg, BABES!

Did... did we just forget this entire exchange?

Crowley coaxes Aziraphale over to the tentative beginnings of being consciously on "their own side" by confronting him with all he stands to lose, all the wonders of this world that Heaven refused to welcome.

and now here he is again, pointing up to the heavens, adding one more thing to that list. There is no music that brings you joy, no charming little restaurants where they know you... no nightingales. And isn't that such a tragic hail Mary? To lay oneself bare like that, to hope of all hopes that you are beloved enough to say "I am not in heaven, I am not allowed to love you there." and have it be enough?

When I first watched this scene, the possibility of Crowley saying "our love is over" here never even occurred to me, and I still don't think that's what's happening, not even for a second. But...

Aziraphale sure does.

#he’s trying so desperately to just recite the entirety of Francesca by Hozier at him and just going about it all wrong #I’m honestly shocked I’ve seen no one else being this up #it was what immediately came to mind for me #someone probably has ngl #season 2 #good omens #season 1 #2x06 #1x01 #…I think #meta #analysis #no nightingales #ineffable husbands #Aziraphale #crowley #aziracrow #biceratops

something about the erasure of platonic love in fandom bothers me. maybe its just that im aroace, maybe i just dont 'get' the differences between loving and being in love. but it bothers me.

#are you in love with the friend you hold when they cry #are you in love when you smile whenever you see someone #are you in love when you wish they were by your side because they always make you laugh #where is the boundary. where does love turn into something more #is it not knowing what youd do without them? #is it devotion? is it wanting the world and more for someone? #do you just know? is it a gut feeling? #i dont know and i probably wont ever know #but i think people see romance as something far more universal than it really is #anyways. bonus points if one of the characters is a minor i see that more than i should #not saying its inherently wrong to ship these kinds of characters also #its literally fine do what you want #i just think. maybe not everything has to be romantic #doodles #this is probably my hottest take ngl

Rest

Guess what? I've got more Jamil x reader for y'all. You can also find this on ao3. No warnings, just 866 words of kinda fluffy(?) caretaking stuff with gender-neutral reader.

At this point, you know Jamil’s schedule almost as well as he does. So, when you have the chance, you head to Scarabia’s kitchen, hoping to spend some time with Jamil while he and the other students prepare dinner. 

However, when you enter, it takes you but a moment to notice Jamil’s uncharacteristic fumbling and the tired look in his eyes. The way Jamil’s chopping the vegetables has you worried about him cutting himself with that knife he’s usually so adept with, and it seems it’s only force of habit that’s keeping him on track.

You frown, and when your eyes meet Jamil’s, you can already see him put his guard up.

So he knows what state he is in, huh? And still, here he is.

It seems Jamil is reading your thoughts, all of him telling you drop it before any words are even said.

At least he still lets you lean in and give a quick kiss to his cheek in greeting.

“Hello love. Do you still have a lot on your agenda for today?” you ask, keeping your tone low for at least some semblance of privacy in the busy kitchen.

“Nothing I can’t handle,” is the response you get.

Of course.

It takes a little more pestering before Jamil actually answers your question. Your lips purse. That list is far too long to your liking.

You take a moment to think, juggling your own plans and to-do list against the urgency of the things Jamil mentioned.

“Will Kalim be eating from that?” you ask, pointing at the food Jamil is preparing.

“Yes.”

“Alright, I won’t be touching that one, then. I’ve gotta do a few things but I’ll be back when you’re done here.”

“Don’t,” Jamil says with a glare, clearly aware of what you’re thinking.

Yet even his disapproving look doesn’t have the usual weight behind it.

“Yes. I will,” you say firmly, even as your heart curls inwards with another bout of concern.

Really, when did he get so tired?

And how did you not notice it earlier?

You leave the kitchen before Jamil can protest further, hurrying through the dorm corridors to find Kalim.

Soon you have an enthusiastic – and concerned – supporter for your plans. You have Kalim point out a few reliable Scarabia students to help with a few of the most urgent matters Jamil mentioned – cleaning up the common areas, delivering some paperwork to Crowley, preparing some dorm-wide notices – while you see to Kalim getting his school supplies in order for the following day. You even recruit a couple of third years to help Kalim with his homework.

You’ll see to the rest tomorrow – after all, you do also have a boyfriend to look after.

Your conversation over dinner can hardly be called anything else than an argument – despite Kalim’s best attempts at acting as a moderating force between you two. It is very tempting to ask Kalim to tell Jamil to take the rest of the day off – it’s not like Jamil would be willing to openly disobey a direct order. Still, you really don’t need to remind Jamil of his position on top of everything else that you’re already doing more or less against his wishes.

Eventually, however, Jamil’s had a square meal, the most urgent things on his to-do list are being taken care of, and you’ve managed to drag him to his bed.

“I really wish you wouldn’t push yourself so hard,” you murmur, your arms wrapped tightly around Jamil. You’re telling yourself you really do just want to cuddle, to offer some respite to Jamil. Still, there might also be a part of you worried that if you were to let go, he’d just jump up and get back to working himself to the bone.

Yet, for all his protestations, just the fact that you’ve gotten Jamil to lay down with you speaks volumes of his current exhaustion.

“I can’t just leave my duties, albi. You know this.”

“Making yourself too indispensable, is what you’re doing,” you protest.

Oh, you know it’s not so simple. Not with his background, not with all the expectations and assumptions.

But sometimes you really wish it would be.

Jamil merely scoffs in response to your words.

Still, it is undeniable that he is slowly beginning to relax in your arms, slowly bringing his head closer to yours. His eyes are starting to flutter, too.

“I will still need to help Kalim with his homework, at the very least.”

You wonder who he is trying to convince more, you or himself.

“Amin and Khalil are helping him. They’re basically top of their classes, aren’t they? I’m sure they’ve got it.”

Still, Jamil frowns.

You sigh. He really is not letting go, is he?

“Do you want me to go supervise?” you ask.

And leave you, unsaid yet hanging there right after your words.

“Don’t,” Jamil eventually says, the word barely more than a breath.

It seems he has accepted his fate.

You softly caress Jamil’s hair, listening to his softening breathing.

And when you wake up, wholly unaware of having been lulled to sleep in the first place, it’s to the lightest of touches from Jamil’s fingers.

Frank! fantasy flavor!

rambles:

i really wanted to blend that monk-class inspiration w/ Frank's personal vibe... i like to think that i Succeeded!

i turned his tie into a sort of brooch since, yk. bowties aren't all that Fantastical. they miss the style. also i think they'd be more comfortable with something smaller since he's very active and needs a wide range of maneuverability

i bet Eddie or someone wheedled them into adding the leather shoulder pauldrons - leather to keep it a bit more flexy, and also. it just looks Cool!

figuring out what would replace his vest was tough. i didn't want them to be entirely unprotected, but i couldn't give him straight armor. though i will admit! a sort of tight-fitting crop top was Considered! but i landed on a gambeson vest as the best fit - comfortable, flexible, a Vest, while providing some level of protection! also, gambesons are quilted, which fits Frank's diamond-checkered vest!

ive already mentioned that one of my favorite outfit things is Flowy Pants Tucked Into Boots, so... that choice wasn't very character driven. except the boots are a tall ankle wrap - for that extra stability and strength! their shoes are pretty flexible and are only a few steps away from being slippers.

and the half-skirt - open skirt? - thing (still don't know what its called) is purely some self indulgence. i think Frank looks great in skirts!! also imagining him Throwing Down w/ the added flair of the skirt... damn. it'd probably help confuse enemies too - what're they gonna do next? who knows! the skirt is in the way and adding extra Movement!

i like to think that his knife is either in a sheath attached to the back of the belt, or they have it on their thigh (under the skirt) like Wally's bag. he probably never uses it... punching is the way to go for Frank methinks. it's probably reserved for cutting ropes and fruit

speaking of punching.... wrist wraps! inspired by boxing gauze! pads his knuckles, keeps his wrist compressed, its the best choice for physical combat. though the wrapped knuckles probably always have blood showing through anyway... or no yeah it's mostly other people's blood...

as for scars - Frank probably has quite the collection! i imagine that they've been picking fights since a young age, and in such a dangerous world he probably got hit a Lot until they learned how to hit back. and hit back Well. still, i wanted to give him a cool face scar with a very lame backstory - a book with a crisp, sharp spine corner fell off a high shelf and bonked them in the face at juuuust the right angle <3 he probably stays very fucking quiet about it which makes everyone think there's some intense traumatic backstory behind it. there isn't. Frank's just embarrassed.

closing note: i imagine that Frank has zero magic. literally none. cannot wield it for shit cannot utilize it. he's just like Howdy fr

#im Very happy with this outfit ngl #they probably know a bunch of different fighting styles... #and then stitches them all together into a Frankenstyle #get it? frankenstein's monster + frank + style - yeah yeah i know im hilarious #he probably stresses everyone tf out with how gung-ho they are in a fight Without Much Protection #like yeah gambesons can cushion blows and depending on the quality can lessen or even stop arrows / stabs #but frank's is a Vest. yeah it covers his vital organ area but like. their face? arms? legs? its free target practice #everytime eddie sees frank throw himself at an enemy w/ magic or Much Bigger Than Frank #he has about 100 heart attacks #catch him sprinting to cover's franks ass. they need it #frank Will look at someone way above his pay grade and go 'yeah i can take em' #(and that's why they consistently end up under poppy's healing wing) #julie unfortunately is on the same bullshit as frank #so if frank takes on someone he cant handle - so will she. without blinking! #though when she (or anyone else) tries it that's when frank goes 'are you crazy?! dont fight them they'll kill you' #frank has common sense when it comes to other people <3 not themself <3 #scribble salad #wh fantasy au #ah yes and the tiny knife... the glorified cheese knife... #even sally has a nice dagger and she's got some Powerful magic on her side #meanwhile frank is bringing fists to a gunfight smh #tryin ta think of a backstory for him for this au... #im thinking... he was either an orphan or his parents straight up Ditched him as a kid... #and he was taken in by a... fuck im missing the word. monastery? or something? #whatever it was it was run by somewhat spiritual people that raised & trained highly skilled/disciplined fighters #with the intent of 'you will fight for good blah blah blah' #maybe frank would sneak out and thats how he met julie? and he taught her some combat skills maybe... #& then he wound up running away w/ her or somethn #or he completed his training and went out to be a Soldier For Good but wound up following his own path & moral compass... idk

[beneathsilverstars]

thinking about how siffrin definitely doesn't know how old they are. lol

#do you think their 'birthday' is just the anniversary of the day they woke up on the beach #that seems way worse than just picking a random day ngl #siffrin #isat #isat spoilers #i could probably guess a baby's age within 2 months and a 3-6 year old within half a year but a teen??? #a high school classroom can contain someone who looks 12 and someone who looks 19 #i know he canonically has a birthday but that seems harder to remember than your Name #your age changes every year and what are the chances the island even uses the same calendar #esp since the rest of the world doesn't know shit about astronomy the island's definition of a year was probably more accurate at least

#ngl i could see any of these #transfem vil doesn’t really work with the point of vil’s story but i understand why someone would say that #gender-fluid vil has a special place in my heart and is probably how i would write him just because. it works. #but TRANSMASC VIL. dude. it makes his dynamic with epel and his choice to present feminine most of the time SO much more interesting!! #like. okay so we can all agree that epel is transmasc too right? right. he’s a baby trans guy. vil is his trans therapist. #his mentor in transness. so vil is teaching epel to be less insecure about appearing feminine. he’s helping epel become more comfortable wi #and teaching him how to take care of himself. fuck yes i love that #ok well that was my essay thx for reading this far :3 #twisted wonderland #twst #twst wonderland #vil shoenheit #disney twst #disney twisted wonderland #twst vil #twisted wonderland vil #vil twst #vil schoenheit #twst headcanons #vil twisted wonderland

where’s that little horror piece about kits never growing up in Starclan? because I remember it so vividly but I can’t find it.

The one about Bright Stream?

Weird that it's so hard to find! It's probably because it's got such heavy tags lmao.

I really mean it though like, canon's permakitten system and the idea that Bright Stream is up there, forever taking care of fetus children who were filled by sudden knowledge and yet never grow past that point absolutely horrifies me. Jesus Christ. I don't know how anyone reads that final scene in Path of Stars and isn't filled with itching, white-hot existential dread, man.

Sometimes you just gotta write horror about it. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

What is the drama happening on twitter rn. I have never heard of smpronpa in my life

i was not around when smpronpa dropped nor have i watched smplive so apologies if i get any of this wrong but tldr smpronpa was a popular danganronpa x smplive fic when that was around. eventually it got the attention of some ccs including one callmecarson who did the Serious Stream Addressing Fan Culture. you might recognise this starting screen

in which he talked a lot about boundaries and said he wasn't happy with fanfiction, shipping, etc. and called smpronpa out directly by name as an example of this. poor behaviour from a cc even if they are uncomfortable with this because then the author was harassed extensively and smpronpa was totally removed. because nobody expected this, it became functionally lost media. cmc ended up being a groomer btw and every other cc who has commented on smpronpa since said they didn't give a fuck and varied from not caring about it to actively reading and enjoying it.

fast forward to now and after some time spent digging connor conarcoin received a full copy of smpronpa and has reposted it for everyone to enjoy. i have no idea if twitter are mad about this or what but a lot of people seem to be realising that actually it wasnt the horrific boundary breaking nightmare people assumed it was but actually just your very average danganronpa crossover. who would've guessed. pokay is reading it live on stream tonight. nature is healing etc

I think my funniest headcanon about TMA is the reason Jon lied about being 38 when he was 28 was not because everyone already assumed he’s older (honestly that sounds like a lie anyway), but because he heard that Martin was older then him and he didn’t like that. Also my headcanon for the age Martin lied about being was 21 when he was 16, making him 34 when he was actually 29.

Basically on Martin’s birthday someone asked how old he was turning and he was like “oh- uh, 34 😅” and Tim said “woah, really? Damn, you look so much younger then that. I mean, isn’t that even older than Jon?” And Jon coughed very loudly and interrupted, “I’m actually 38.”

#the magnus archives #tma #jonathan sims #jon sims #martin blackwood #Jon couldn’t handle being younger than Martin #Martin adds 5 years to his age and Jon decides hes 10 years older suddenly #it’s too bad he’s still younger than him without either of them lying about their ages #by a few months at most but still #Martin had his birthday first so #obviously Jon must be younger #anyway this has plagued my mind since I heard Jon’s birthday party #ngl I’ve written this post probably 5 times in different ways and then decided not to post them #idk why #probably because I’m worried about someone coming in and going #‘um actually that makes no sense. 21 is too young to get an archiving job you clearly don’t know what you’re talking about’ #which tbf is true I have no idea how old you have to be to get an archival job #I’m literally 16 with no intentions to go into that field #so sure if you wanna correct me go off I guess

I just had a very Laios DunMeshi moment this morning, in which I've had to bite my own dog in order for her to finally let go of the dog she was biting.

#it's been a very cathartic episode ngl #also before you ask: no dog has been injured. #except for me since the other dog bit my finger when i tried to separate them #btw I think I've probably given the other dog's owner something real insane to tell his friends #because come on: how often does it happen to see someone go on all fours and suddenly bite their dog by the scruff #man what the fuck. what was i even thinking. nothing really tbh #anyway!!!

I have a self-imposed rule of "no more than ten rules per blog" so whenever I update them I have to marie kondo what I feel is least necessary

#I just hate it when blogs have like a massive list of regulations I have to read and follow in order to write with them #ngl if someone has more than like... 20 rules I am probably not going to interact #by all means set boundaries but please be reasonable

[xoshepard]

honestly i am probably attracted to men romantically as well as aesthetically, but the reason i was SO confused for the past couple months is that i have not allowed myself to be genuinely romantically attracted to an irl man in years, if ever (i.e. i make up scenarios w them in my head and fall in love with that fake watered down/completely inaccurate version of them or the one case where i let him depend on me for a disproportionate amount of emotional support and expected him to fall in love with me in return bc i have issues w wanting to be needed) and i think realizing that has changed how i interact w and see men, meaning i can accept that i most likely am romantically attracted to them, still definitely not sexually attracted to them

so we are back to square one happy pride fellow bisexuals begin killing

#tirah talks #tl;dr: im bi again :) #things are still complicated but i never turned to labels to further complicate them #there is no label that says 'i experience low romantic attraction to all genders and am poorly adjusted to romance irl so im prone to #putting ppl on a pedestal but also im only sexually attracted to women' #so bi will have to do as it always has #but also idk if someone flirts w me enough i'll probably fall for them ngl dhskdhdj #it just has to be obvious #that will trigger the romantic attraction #or at least itll get me considering it

my favorite thing from this last episode of the silt verses is the implication (fleeting, but there) that whatever god Hayward and Paige grew in the cursed soil of her father’s farm won’t be constrained by them, and they’re hurtling very quickly towards some undeniable, unintended consequences.

#also I love that hayward continues to be an avoidance-seeking coward regardless of circumstances #he's there with friends! paige has clasped him to her liberal and slightly dysfunctional familial bosom! #and yet the idea that he'd have an honest conversation with her about something he's observed #that's probably important to them and their overall project simply does not occur to him #just don't talk about it. hope that the stink finds someone else to infect. #.....ngl at this point I need paige to suffer for her hubris a little. #carpenter is taking a lifetime of religious angst and abuse out on the countryside; faulkner is gritting his teeth #in order to get through being a pawn in a larger chess game #hayward has basically fallen so far he's groping around in the dark theology of his once-sworn enemies #while the politicians wheel and deal (only to trigger carnage) and at least one of the god-killers falters in their faith #I just also need her to be a little tainted. as a treat for me. #the silt verses #silt verses spoilers
