I see your 'QSMP players' irl romantic partners are patron gods that give them assistance in times of need' and your 'Tommy is Tubbo's patron god because of the marriage gag and Tubbo is very, very tired' and I raise you a 'CDawgVA is IronMouse's patron god who randomly appears to tell IronMouse to go to sleep and has bought nearly every Cinnamoroll in existence for her'.

Just. Think about it.

#qsmp #qsmp ironmouse #ironmouse #cdawgva #listen #I just think it's a cool headcanon #On one hand you have Philza whose patron god is the Goddess of Death (and also his wife) #On another hand you have Tubbo whose patron god literally just tricked him into a marriage that he's been desperately trying to escape sinc #And on the third you have Connor #Who has probably dumped a not insignificant amount of money into Cinnamorolls for IronMouse #qsmp tubbo #just because he's in here too #qsmp headcanon #qsmp headcanons

hi, saw that your Sdv requests are open. I currently have my dogs sitting on my lap and had a thought. How would the sdv bachelors respond/react if the farmer said they didn't want kids and would rather adopt some dogs (or cats or any type of animal if I'm being serious) instead of having children.

Love your writing. Hope you have an amazing week.

Hey hey 👋 Thank you for your kind words and for the ask, dear anon! I'm glad you like my writing and I hope you like this hc too. Have a nice week as well 🫰💕

SDV bachelors react to the Farmer when they said they wanted to adopt a dog/cat/other pet instead of having a children:

_________________________________________

Shane doesn't see any problem with this at all because he had previously sworn to himself that he wouldn't have children. Especially since Shane has already tried a few years as a father figure and realised it's... hard. Don't get him wrong, Shane loves his niece, but with his depression and alcohol abuse previously, he knew he wasn't the best godfather for Jas. But he has plenty of experience with caring for chickens, so Shane brightened with joy when his spouse suggested having more chickens instead of kids. Charlie would have more friends!

Harvey had always dreamed of a happy family, but the local doctor had never specifically thought about having children. He came to the conclusion that he would be happy with Farmer in any scenario. And recently, a friend of Harvey's from Zuzu City was looking for owners for three orphaned stray kittens... So after a conversation with his spouse and mutual agreement, Harvey now have the three furballs who greet him with chorus of meowing, climb up his pyjama, demanding food, and make Harvey and Farmer smile every day.

Sebastian was all for it. He didn't want to have kids either, and didn't have any particular reason. He was afraid that Farmer would take this rather negatively. But since they are both on the same page, how about expand their terrarium and get more cute frogs? Sebastian still remembers that the Farmer named the rescued frog "their son," so "they're already parents to green babies." Sebby will be happy about the addition to their frog family (and won't forget to lightly tease his beloved spouse again).

Sam holds up the Farmer's dog. "But we already have a baby!" And the pooch barked back, wagging his tail happily. Well, they're glad that Sam reacted to their words very calmly. But later the guitarist himself admits that he doesn't see himself as a parent. Especially since they are both so young, and there's still a lot to do and explore. But he also would like to have another puppy. Sam even called Marnie to ask about adopting a puppy. Or maybe two? How about three? All in all, Sam, like Farmer, would be quite happy without children.

Elliott had long since chosen the right words and the right place, for, as it turned out, he himself had wanted to raise the matter with Farmer. The writer decided that since they were both almost entirely devoted to their work and hobbies, they would not be able to pay proper attention to the child, and it would be unfair to the baby. What was the writer's surprise when Farmer told him that they also wanted to discuss the possibility of being childfree. And also the idea of having another cat. Elliott was fine with it, believing that their first cat would like a new friend.

Alex was a little discouraged by Farmer's question, as he was thinking of just discussing with his spouse about children/adoption. Not that he wants kids right away without prior preparation, of course not. But after listening to Farmer's opinion, Alex couldn't disagree with their reasoning. Perhaps he just wanted the happy family life he didn't have as a child. But he was already happy with Farmer. And he'd be even more happy if Farmer agreed to have a couple puppies. Dusty would definitely enjoy the new company!

#stardew valley #sdv #sdv shane #sdv harvey #sdv sam #sdv sebastian #sdv elliott #sdv alex #sdv headcanons #thanks for the ask! #Come to think of it... The only person whose childfree life be a major blow to marriage is Penny #Because for her - children and family are the meaning of life #While others in the dialogues (although they are glad that they became parents) have never insisted on it so much.

I think if any characters were married it would be poe and ranpo.

#accident? purposeful? yes #ranpo would have gotten fukuzawa to procure the paperwork for a partner license and poe would sign it whilst in the middle of writing #they would have gone to the office gotten it filed with suspicious haste and efficience #(and later when poe finds out he'll wonder how they got it done when he's a foreigner) #i like to think that now that ranpo has poe he can now travel the world (lord knows fukuzawa wasn't going to deal with that) #he gets jobs everywhere though he prefers to stay home #one day he gets a job in america and convinces poe to take him #poe is apprehensive #ranpo never accepts jobs there #a week later poe finds himself in another office with more paperwork and the beginnings of a marriage license #ranpo whose only job at this point is to sign smiles cheekily #marriage headcanons #bsd #bungou stray dogs #bungo sd #ranpoe #my archive

honestly when i tried to figure out why some fans are so mad at ivypool these days i was looking through avos and. the scene where ivypool apologises to twigpaw for not supporting sending a patrol for skyclan is genuinely very sweet??

i actually saw someone characterize this as "ivypool forcing twigpaw to forgive her". is it crack you smoke. is that what you smoke. you smoke crack?

#she apologises THREE SEPARATE TIMES #she acknowledges that dovewing and tigerheart's situation made her ignore twigpaw's feelings #she reassures twigpaw that this is the right thing for the clans. she tells her she's proud of her & tc is lucky to have her #you guys do understand that to apologise you have to Do Something Wrong?? or is that the part that's so unforgivable? #i am fASCINATED by the treatment of dove and ivy by the fans in recent years #i'm still pondering it but i think there are a few root causes #1) I think a lot of people read oots as kids and hated dove & identified with ivy because of the underdog storyline #maybe this fandom worship of dovewing is kinda part of that? wanting to feel like you've grown out of fandom misogyny? #but i also feel like 2) tigerdove has really increased dovewing's popularity #and i think because ivypool is so staunchly opposed to their relationship people then have to villainise ivypool #3) is maybe too spicy of a take but to be honest #i think people are subconsciously way more comfortable with a woman whose story ends in heterosexual marriage and childrearing #dovewing's mom role in TBC to shadowsight probably helped her popularity #so ivypool whose relationship w Fernsong & her kits is much less of a focus. and is mUCH less maternal #and who still exhibits Ugly Female Emotions like anger and hurt #and who God Forbid now holds a position of authority... #is too complicated to fit into :) she's such a good mom :) she's such a good mate #dovewing is easier to like because she tends to be a victim of circumstances (🤫 and often lacks agency in her storylines) #since ivypool regularly uses her agency to Fuck Up #fans revert to idealising dovewing because not only is she too good to do bad things. she also doesn't do Things in general #never mind that ivypool is the one who sacrifices and apologises #anyway <3 i think if i made a full analysis of ivy and dove post OOTS i would get too many spicy anons so i will cower in the tags

OP HOW ARE WE FEELING....... THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS ALL AROUND...... genuinely distraught... someone take dcmk away from gosho fr...

sorry anon the tone of this ask are not specifically directed to you, its more to the general KS posts i've been seeing on my fyp

don't plan to address this since im not even a KS account but i'm starting to get peeved seeing a bunch of ppl act victimized like gosho did that cuz he personally hates KS shippers

i'm a huge gosho aoyama hater myself but come on that man probably thinks there's nothing wrong with first cousin dating in the first place (addendum one: shuake, addendum two: hanzawa love interest being his own countryside cousin) i'd even dare to say based on his unintentional world view its him encouraging KS shippers instead

for this account i'll make sure to tag any future KS to avoid icking those bothered by the reveal but for the record any KS made by me are not closely related

#they might be distantly related tho cuz that's funnier to me *gunshot* #movie 27 #movie spoiler #asks #personal #sorry for those whose world are crumbling down by this reveal but to me this situation is extremely funny #which is why i dont plan to even address it im not even a KS shipper i dont have the right to laugh publicly when there are- #-people who are genuinely distraught 😭😭 #“but the twincest case! its been protrayed as bad!” yea and twin raw dogging it is illegal while first cousin marriage is legal in jp #just trying to prove what kind of outdated worldview this man has dont shoot the messenger #even saw ppl accusing gosho hating KS shippers cuz they outnumbers his 'beloved' shinran 😂 #if gosho respect shinran that much he wouldn't be pandering to coai. KS shipper is the least of his problem. that man is just a capitalist #speaking of straight ships the shinran vs coai war on chinese and arabic twitter are one of the most obnoxious group of ppl i've ever seen #one of this days im gonna do a rant on that

not about to rag on christian counselors without giving a solution btw

this is a directory of nouthetic Christian counselors, meaning they can be relied upon to give you counsel that is faithful to Scripture in a manner that is faithful to Scripture:

Alright uninformed rant time. It kind of bugs me that, when studying the Middle Ages, specifically in western Europe, it doesn’t seem to be a pre-requisite that you have to take some kind of “Basics of Mediaeval Catholic Doctrine in Everyday Practise” class. 

Obviously you can’t cover everything- we don’t necessarily need to understand the ins and outs of obscure theological arguments (just as your average mediaeval churchgoer probably didn’t need to), or the inner workings of the Great Schism(s), nor how apparently simple theological disputes could be influenced by political and social factors, and of course the Official Line From The Vatican has changed over the centuries (which is why I’ve seen even modern Catholics getting mixed up about something that happened eight centuries ago). And naturally there are going to be misconceptions no matter how much you try to clarify things for people, and regional/class/temporal variations on how people’s actual everyday beliefs were influenced by the church’s rules. 

But it would help if historians studying the Middle Ages, especially western Christendom, were all given a broadly similar training in a) what the official doctrine was at various points on certain important issues and b) how this might translate to what the average layman believed. Because it feels like you’re supposed to pick that up as you go along and even where there are books on the subject they’re not always entirely reliable either (for example, people citing books about how things worked specifically in England to apply to the whole of Europe) and you can’t ask a book a question if you’re confused about any particular point. 

I mean I don’t expect to be spoonfed but somehow I don’t think that I’m supposed to accumulate a half-assed religious education from, say, a 15th century nobleman who was probably more interested in translating chivalric romances and rebelling against the Crown than religion; an angry 16th century Protestant; a 12th century nun from some forgotten valley in the Alps; some footnotes spread out over half a dozen modern political histories of Scotland; and an episode of ‘In Our Time’ from 2009. 

But equally if you’re not a specialist in church history or theology, I’m not sure that it’s necessary to probe the murky depths of every minor theological point ever, and once you’ve started where does it end? 

Anyway this entirely uninformed rant brought to you by my encounter with a sixteenth century bishop who was supposedly writing a completely orthodox book to re-evangelise his flock and tempt them away from Protestantism, but who described the baptismal rite in a way that sounds decidedly sketchy, if not heretical. And rather than being able to engage with the text properly and get what I needed from it, I was instead left sitting there like:

And frankly I didn’t have the time to go down the rabbit hole that would inevitably open up if I tried to find out

#This is a problem which is magnified in Britain I think as we also have to deal with the Hangover from Protestantism #As seen even in some folk who were raised Catholic but still imbibed certain ideas about the Middle Ages from culturally Protestant schools #And it isn't helped when we're hit with all these popular history tv documentaries #If I have to see one more person whose speciality is writing sensational paperbacks about Henry VIII's court #Being asked to explain for the British public What The Pope Thought I shall scream #Which is not even getting into some of England's super special common law get out clauses #Though having recently listened to some stuff in French I'm beginning to think misconceptions are not limited to Great Britain #Anyway I did take some realy interesting classes at uni on things like marriage and religious orders and so on #But it was definitely patchy and I definitely do not have a good handle on how it all basically hung together #As evidenced by the fact that I've probably made a tonne of mistakes in this post #Books aren't entirely helpful though because you can't ask them questions and sometimes the author is just plain wrong #I mean I will take book recommendations but they are not entirely helpful; and we also haven't all read the same stuff #So one person's idea of what the basics of being baptised involved are going to radically differ from another's based on what they read #Which if you are primarily a political historian interested in the Hundred Years' War doesn't seem important eonugh to quibble over #But it would help if everyone was given some kind of similar introductory training and then they could probe further if needed/wanted #So that one historian's elementary mistake about baptism doesn't affect generations of specialists in the Hundred Years' War #Because they have enough basic knowledge to know that they can just discount that tiny irrelevant bit #This is why seminars are important folks you get to ASK QUESTIONS AND FIGURE OUT BITS YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND #And as I say there is a bit of a habit in this country of producing books about say religion in mediaeval England #And then you're expected to work out for yourself which bits you can extrapolate and assume were true outwith England #Or France or Scotland or wherever it may be though the English and the French are particularly bad for assuming #that whatever was true for them was obviously true for everyone else so why should they specify that they're only talking about France #Alright rant over #Beginning to come to the conclusion that nobody knows how Christianity works but would like certain historians to stop pretending they do #Edit: I sort of made up the examples of the historical people who gave me my religious education above #But I'm now enamoured with the idea of who actually did give me my weird ideas about mediaeval Catholicism #Who were my historical godparents so to speak #Do I have an idea of mediaeval religion that was jointly shaped by some professor from the 1970s and a 6th century saint? #Does Cardinal Campeggio know he's responsible for some much later human being's catechism? #Fake examples again but I'm going to be thinking about that today

Currently thinking about how amatonormativity probably isn't a big thing for elves in the Blades universe. See, they value two things in interpersonal relationships: emotional compatibility and sexual attraction. Romance is completely excluded from sexual attraction, which is why it's not the person you're sexually compatible with that you marry, and sharing both bonds is taboo.

But then romance would fall under emotional compatibility, and as we saw with Tyril and Kaya, it's canon that a deep friendship also falls under this umbrella just as much, to the point that Tyril states that he and Kaya would have made a great marriage pair despite Kaya being a lesbian and him not being aromantic, so then despite both of them experiencing romantic attraction for other people, they possibly would have ended up in a QPR anyway.

I just think it's Neat that the Blades elves don't seem to make a hierarchy of romance and friendship when distinguishing deep bonds.

(They also could've chosen to lump romantic compatibility in with sexual attraction instead of with platonic compatibility, so instead of Kilvali being platonic OR romantic intimacy, it would only be the former and then Dinvali would've been romantic OR sexual intimacy, but I'm glad they decided that romance is more an emotional bond than a physical one.)

Though then I wonder if allonormativity does exist among elves, because they don't place a particular importance on romance but they DO place a particular importance on sexual attraction through Dinvali (even if they put emotional compatibility above sexual attraction) and there's a culture of having multiple sexual partners, so I have to wonder if not sharing Dinvali ever and not taking sexual partners is about as taboo as being monogamous. Ik the monogamy thing is because it was blasphemous to try to have both with someone they way the gods did, but if you share Kilvali with someone and then Dinvali with no one you're technically monogamous. Maybe it's not as frowned upon since it's not that they're sharing both -valis, so then could a controversial couple that does share both escape public criticism by pretending they're both ace and therefore they're monogamous but in a gods-honoring way?

Also interesting on the note that if you marry someone over Kilvali because you're romantically compatible you're not supposed to have sex with them??? Because, again, sharing both is taboo. Are (sex-favorable) ace4ace elven couples the only ones who could uncontroversially have sex with their partners? Because Dinvali is described as sexual ATTRACTION in the lore tablet. and if the attraction is not there, it's not Dinvali, so it's not both and the gods (and conservative elves) don't get pissy.

Either way, just. Shoutout to Blades!elves. They girlbossed so hard in normalizing the split attraction model that they denormalized having sex w the person you're in love with and that's kind of hilarious.

#unrelated but on the topic of emotional compatibility #the tablet says elven society asks for emotional loyalty in a marriage #and I get that as far as people whose Kilvali is romantic but what about people whose Kilvali is about friendship? #can they not have deep friendships with people who aren’t their spouse or else they’re cheating? #I’m not sure how it works there

"A developed affinity certainly furthered the queen’s own political position, but the institutional ties between the king and the queen’s households enabled the queen to remain an important influence in the political arena. Furthermore, the extension of the queen’s influence and holdings did not solely benefit the queen. Rosemary Horrox has argued that Elizabeth Woodville’s networks and influence across East Anglia were so extensive that her dominance there was considered the main source of royal authority in the region. Moreover, Joanna Laynesmith has identified that when the queen was successful in administering her estates, she ultimately facilitated the king’s own administration in creating a vast spread of royal influence."

-Katia Wright, "A Dower for Life: Understanding the Dowers of England's Medieval Queens", Later Plantagenet and Wars of the Roses Consorts: Power, Influence, and Dynasty

#historicwomendaily #elizabeth woodville #my post #It's nice to see an analysis of EW as a queen whose successful administration facilitated and strengthened royal authority as a whole #rather than merely 'a Woodville' promoting her family #These two identities of hers would have undoubtedly overlapped but that's the point - they overlapped #They weren't distinct or separate from each other because the Woodvilles were ultimately 'part of the royal connection' #Of course at the same time it would be incorrect to ignore the novelty of EW's natal family's presence and effect on her queenship/ #administration/patronage - which set the precedent for all future English queens. #(EW also had major interest in the Exeter lands - you can tell by her marriage maneuvers for her eldest son and eldest grandson) #(In 1469 she herself was placed fourth in line to those lands; in 1476 she received an additional annuity from its fee-farms; etc)

lore we have decided on for oberyn martell with @joel-mlller @thesadvampire

his only son is absolutely pathetic when it comes to physical activities. cannot throw a ball without tripping over his own two feet. Has been this way since he was a child and will be as an adult. becomes competent through years and years of training but even grown up he’ll still trip walking up stairs and thwack his head on doors. As a baby you might as well either never set him down or put that baby in armor cause that mfer is falling all over

1. is he yours? no. you (oberyns wife) never wanted to sire children and never will. but when he brings the babe home his little infant brain looks at you and goes ‘ah. that is mother’ and will outright refuse to be told otherwise. Will shriek and cry all goddamn night long until you come in and bounce him in your arms and he will finally settle. Always doing the uppy hands for you and mumbling “muh???muh???” to get your attention. Loves ellaria as second mother but YOU are prime mama despite your lack of maternal instincts you just sigh and go ‘well. i guess this is my baby now’ and are his mother. Oberyn thinks its hilarious but also seeing you motherly kinda makes his breeding kink go crazy. 

#tj talks #youre a 'hes alright baby bounce back quick' mom lmao #this is separate from the ladys brood universe #in this one oberyn brings home a bastard baby of his own and its his first and only son #youre his wife from an arranged marriage whose a lot like him- you enjoy drinking and visitng brothels but you and oberyn arent romantically #involved at first #more so kinda friends who are mean to eachother #ellaria is the safety middle ground cause yall are besties fr #anyways #wine mother who goes from 'no dont hand it to me' to 'what the fuck did you say about my baby boy? no say it again i fucking dare you' #oberyn martell x reader #oberyn martell x you #and of course poly because we never leave out ellaria

In honor of Greek Independence Day, here's a conversation that I overheard my grandmother (your average pita-baking, Saints-praising, extremely-devout-Orthodox Greek Yiayia) having over the phone with her cousin:

Yiayia: "...marriage for homosexuals???"

(At this point I start paying attention.)

Yiayia: "But there's always been gays around. And lesbians. Even in the old times."

Guy on the other end of the phone: annoyed arguing

Yiayia: "Yes! Even in back in my village, we had lesbians. Two of them, "male-females" [αρσενοθήλυκες]. One of them was named Marlena, and her mother was our neighbor growing up. A good family! After the earthquake [of 1953], she and her wife moved to Athens. The rest of the family..."

Guy on phone: homophobic old man noises

Yiayia: "Saint Paul doesn't like it? Saint Paul doesn't even like normal marriage! He says all sorts of things, that Saint Paul... Tell me, have you ever read the New Testament in Modern Greek? My daughter got me a copy, with everything modern, and I read it every day, and I understand so much more now. You should try reading the New Testament in Modern Greek sometime. It might help."

#greek posts #modern greek #γιαγιά #greek independence day #25th of march #a barn swallow's diary #context: greece recently legalized gay marriage despite the church's protests #I had no idea my grandma was that tolerant... #probably won't come out to her though. she's one of the relatives whose feelings I actually respect. #and she's got enough to worry about besides my gay ass
