It wasn't that Ridcully was stupid. Truly stupid wizards have the life expectancy of a glass hammer. He had quite a powerful intellect, but it was powerful like a locomotive, and ran on rails and was therefore almost impossible to steer.
Terry Pratchett, Lords and Ladies

Sometimes I just survive. But sometimes I stand on the rooftop of my existence, arms stretched out, begging for more.

@jegulus-microfic Jan 11 - fever
243 words
~
"James, you need to stay home." Regulus stated, his voice stern.
"No, no, I'm fine, Reggie, I can't miss work, I-" James broke off as he nearly wiped out trying to get out of bed, clutching his head ruefully and his husband for dear life.
"See, you can't even stand up. You're not going anywhere." Regulus ordered, pushing the stubborn man back down onto their bed.
"But—"
"James Potter I swear if I have to ward you into this house, I will." Regulus warned, and James shut his mouth, settling back against the pillows.
"That’s better. I'm going to make you some tea. And if you even try to move out of that bed I won’t fuck you for a week." Regulus threatened.
“Like you could hold out that long.” James scoffed, and Regulus narrowed his eyes.
“Do you really doubt me, Potter?” Regulus asked, voice steady.
“Er— kinda?” James replied, but he grew more unsure, survival instincts finally kicking in.
“Do you really want to test the limits I’ll go to in order to prove a point?” Regulus questioned, one eyebrow raised in a perfect arch. James sucked in his lips.
“No, no I do not. I’ll stay right here, don’t you worry.” James answered this time, patting the bed and settling in further to show Regulus he meant it.
“Good boy.” Regulus praised, and James shivered. Regulus smiled, pleased, and went to fetch his lovely idiot of a husband some tea.

Stubborn/Protective Caretaking Prompts
“Whumpee, where are those scars from?”
“You can take as long as you need, but I’m not leaving. Understand?”
“Leave them alone.”
“Don’t touch them!”
“Do you normally get nightmares like that?”
“I’ve never seen you act like that before…”
“I know how much this hurts, and i need you to understand that it’s okay to be affected by something like this, whumpee.”
“Crying has health benefits, i know, but I hate seeing you like this.”
“There was nothing you could have done to change your situation, don’t you understand that??”
“I don’t recognise you anymore.” “Well neither do i”
“You are never alone as long as I’m with you.”
“This is who i am now!” “Whumpee, it doesn’t have to be…” “but it is anyway!!”
“You can still be a good person whumpee, like you were before.” “I will never be the same person I was before.”
“You know, we used to be inseparable. I miss the way we were.”

There is so much stubbornness, so much rage, and so much ruthlessness filled in me, yet it amazes me how easily I kneel before the people I love.

Had this done around two to threeish days ago. It was sitting in one of the layers of my inktober stuff. I lose track of time. Some more sketches of slay the princess bird man. Some different interpretations of him. Also made my favorite three voices with their own interpretations. And made a cursed smitten. You just got to give her The Look. lol. Paranoid is my top favorite out of all of them. Man was able to fight off the nightmare and tower. The stubborn is just the embodiment of the human sprite. Always think of the lethal company clip of that guy yelling out "Fight back, Fight back!" I wish I had that kind of energy. lol. Also mind my bad handwriting.

Your friends warned you. Every single time. You being stubborn didn’t listen to a blink of what they said.
It was the night of the raven dance and instead of attending there. You we’re going to go to the normies school dance so you could poor real pigs blood through there sprinklers. You had already gotten a buckets of pigs blood. All you needed to do was go through with the plan.
“I still don’t think this is a good idea y/n!” Enid said. She was getting ready for the raven dance at there school.
“I’ll be fine, all you party poopers just can’t see what great fun this is.”
“Ruining a school dance is not fun! You could get in serious trouble. Especially the normies school! I just don’t want to see you get hurt is all.”
“And I appreciate that enid but I’ll be fine I swear.”
You hugged her. And she tried one last time to get you to stay before you left.
“Hey y/n!” You turned your head.
Xavier.
“Your still not going on with this plan are you?” Xavier said.
“Oh my god. Everyone hears so lame. I’ll be fine I’ll get out before they can see it was me anyways.”
“Y/n listen I really don’t think you should do this I-“
“Zip it. Okay I’m going through with it I don’t care what anyone says.” You were wrong. You did care what one had to say. “Don’t ask me to bail you out of jail.” He defended and walked off.
You were walking down the stairs when you saw her. “Oh hey Wednesday, what do you need.” You asked “just for you to drop the bucket of blood.”
“I’m sorry?”
“Listen y/n hate to bug your spark of insanity joy but. This is not a good time to do this. I think the ideas awesome really. But with a monster on the loose I think this just isn’t a right time to do this. Especially since we’re guarding the fact that the sheriff already has its eyes out on Nevermore.”
“Oh, yeah I suppose your right. Plus the idea was pretty crazy.” You laughed, Wednesday began to walk off.
“Wait uhm will I see you at the dance?” You asked
“Unfortunately. But not because I wanted to I was forced against my will for a train of surprise to ask Xavier.”
You giggled.

So my other obsession of the month is wheel of time and I saw episode 7 and boy o BOY do I have major thoughts and I need to get them out.
Siuan?? What the hell? Following LONG ass post is in defence of Siuan because the general consensus there is right now about Siuan just doesn't rhyme for me.
ONE thing all of Siuan actions did, it brought out SO MUCH .
Liandrin drew out 1 dark friend (Moiraines nephew) and he consequently got locked away (or killed).
One Forsaken showed herself to an entire city, no more hiding or denying (at least not from the Aes Sedai because there were like 14(!) there)
Siuan clearly has doubts about Verin and Verin acted exactly as expected (now I think Verin has a lot more going on but hey 🤷🏼‍♀️)
When Siuan shields Rand, she pushes Moiraine to say all of her intentions with Rand and their decades build plans in front off Rand as if he is not there. Which Moiraine does to protect Rand from Siuan.
Siuan asks Rand if he has channelled carefully and deliberately (not verbatim but this is the general idea), which he hasn't. She scolds him for it and says that he hasn't learned much in 6 months, which is absolutely true.
Which leads to:
Moiraine is shielded (something I do not think Lan figured out on his own) and subsequently released of said shield by Rand when she tells Rand that she trusts him. When last season Moiraine very clearly showed that she doesn't. Rand needed to hear that from Moiraine. It pushed Rand to actually use the one power very DELIBERATELY and CAREFULLY otherwise, Moiraine dead. Now who again scolded Rand about that I wonder hmmm 🤔
Which brings me to the following and perhaps most important point:
Rand now 100% trusts Moiraine, he believes Moiraine does want to protect and guide him to save the world, which previously he didnt. He was confused about what was going on and felt like a toy being played from all sides. Siuan put Moiraine in an impossible situation and Moiraine chose Rand, the dragon reborn because she knows that is the right thing to do. Rand needed to be shown Moiriane will give everything to save the world including turning away from Siuan and being made to do something she does not want (closing the gate).
It is VITAL that he does because Moiraine will be the only one capable of providing Rand the protection and guidance that he needs to save the world. He only does at the end of this episode, which is nearly at the end of this season. They already lost too much time. Drastic extreme measures are unfortunately required because Siuan was right, Moiraines way wasn't working.
At the end of this episode due to Siuans actions, he doesn't trust any Aes Sedai, which is good because you know Black Ajah and doesnt trust the Forsaken, but he very clearly does trust Moiraine, and that WILL set him on the right path.
If I can trust book readers, Siuan is a very powerful channeler. However, like Egwene, it's her intelligence that is actually her greatest power. She is a crazy smart woman and nowhere near as impulsive, brash and stubborn as Moiraine, aka Pufferfish.
Something that stuck by me is that Siuan said "you have given everything, Im going to row beside you now". Siuan knows Moiraine will absolutely not let her. Moiraine is like Nyneave in that way. She would rather die than let anyone she loves do that.
Siuan has given up a lot this episode and put power back with Moiraine, leaving herself incredibly vulnerable, having lost her one true ally, Moiraine. Going back to a tower filled with enemies, she's f*cked, and she knows it, but she needs Moiraine focused on her mission, not on Siuans' potential downfall. Because that will definitely be a distraction for Moiraine.
There is no way in hell a Master chess player like Siuan would move her pawns so early and openly like she seems to be doing in this episode. That is not Siuan. Everyone in WOT world, though, needs to believe that she is (including Moiraine).

Astrology placements combos+
Tumblr media
This picture is from Pinterest.
11H stellium + Virgo placements combination can make a person hypocrite. The 11H is about friendship, groups, idealism and the relationship to the collective. The more 11H placements, the more effort they put into their relationships (relationships are an important part of their life and will do anything to conserve them). Meaning that they are TOO preoccupied about the image they give and who surrounds them and what generates to others. People with this stellium is highly sensitive to criticism, specially the friend ones and any relationship that could affect the mentioned already. They want, they need to give a good impression. Diplomacy is key. They want to fit in. In the past they could have felt rejected; the weird kid of the group. They have this desire to belong for the lack of it before. Virgo is characterized for being perfectionists and practical. They could get really upset if things don’t go the way they want, + 11H, in relationships. They could lie about things just to be seen as good or as they think the others would like to. They can’t be direct about their intentions. It’s more practical being in harmony, without any obstacle in their goal. They couldn’t even know how is the way they are acting (sure they know) for not doing some introspection. They could be really meticulous and cautious the moment they express, act and even present their themselves. So basically… virgo: cautious, perfectionism. 11H stellium: would do everything to maintain the relationship with friends.
What I was listening while typing this 🎶
Aries + Aquarius placements combo is too -I don’t know how to describe it (the thing is I know, but I don’t know where to start)- …much. They’re such a mess, but not in the literal way, in the way they make you SO fed up. -I’m sorry aries + aquarius combo person for what I’m gonna describe, if you’re seeing this (sure you’re going to react totally the opposite others would think: proud of yourself and feeling important like nothing of what I mentioned affected you…and that’s not a problem at all)-. This people is so headstrong, strong willed, with the confidence of a leader and passionate nature of aries and the unique, intelligent and independent nature of aquarius: the explanation is extra. Obviously there is more characteristics of these signs that contribute but we’re gonna focus on this ones. You can’t speak with them without feeling judged, I feel like I have to be in the standard of this combo person so I can have the honor to share some ideas or even open up with them. If I finally make it, they’re not gonna listen, and in exchange, focus on argument their ideas; or when you’re talking they’re are going to search for an error to refute. As I mentioned before, this combo is SO powerful, since aries and aquarius think futuristically; aries in their goal and aquarius for the community. This can lead a revolutionary leader with the purpose to change the way the world works. Could be starting with their empress or goal, and then contributing to others, to the ones that need more or to the problems they’re interested. “Start with yourself to change the world”, a frase that I just invented but I think could feel right with their values and the vibe they wanna be presented as. Considering that they want to “preach” their believes, they BELIEVE, they consider TRUTHFUL their mindset: there’s the problem. Is almost imposible to change their mind, they believe what they believe. Even if aquarius is seen as the sign of open mindset and trendsetter, etc. I always say “an extreme is an extreme”. And adding aries is going to make the aquarius placements more confident than they are. So please, aries + aquarius combo give yourself a rest. I know I can’t ask you to stop thinking in what’s gonna happen next and what you can do to improve things around you or who surrounds you- because you wouldn’t be you-…Oh I forgot. As you try to change other people mindset, you try to change the way the people are, the ones that surrounds you. YOU CAN’T DO THAT. You can give them advice, etc. Please, I beg you (I never beg I’m just joking 👀🙄🤪), don’t project the standards you give to yourself. And remember others can and must have the liberty to have their own mindset. Blablabla…This was too personal. By the way, I needed to throw up all this paragraph. 10H stellium implied?!
