As much as I hate verlaine, I have to admit that the man suffering in the trenches of depression after Rimbaud's death is perfect for my rimlaine.

Ok, been sitting on this for a while, been trying to talk myself out of it, but here goes.
The book doesn't sell me on the love Theoden had for Eowyn.
I tried to read it and find something in his actions towards her that tell me he has proper regard, proper respect for her, that gives any weight or meaning to his love for her, but I can't find anything. He dismisses her before the entire court, doesn't consider her an heir or a proper part of his house, and has to have her virtues called out to him by other people, when she has been serving him for years.
Return Of The King sees him spout platitudes and declare her "dearer than daughter", but none of this is backed up by his general actions to her.
He loves Eowyn, fine. But he doesn't love her the way he loves Eomer, or probably loved Theodred. He doesn't love her as a fully realised being. Nor as someone to take pride in and carry on his legacy. He loves her a crutch, a tool, and something between pet and person.
He has affection for Eowyn, but his love feels more like a trivial thing, than something with any real worth or regard to it.
#Lotr#Lord of the Rings#Eowyn#Theoden#I don't think this is Tolkien's intent#I think I'm meant to believe that Theoden was awesome to Eowyn and did love her more than a daughter#but Tolkien never gave me a reason to believe that#can someone find me a moment in the books where Theoden's love for Eowyn feels like something substantial#where he loves her for who she is and not for the services she has provided#where he shows any respect for her capabilities and pride in her person#and not just going along with it when other people point them out to him#I love them in the films and I want to believe in their love so much#but Theoden's love for Eowyn in the books just feels perfunctory and leaves me feeling empty#I don't think this is how their relationship is meant to make me feel#Eowyn put her life on hold and endured hell for Theoden's sake#and we never even get an implication he regretted what she endured for his sake#we never see a hint of Theoden regretting how he snubbed her before the court#almost every scene between the two of them in Two Towers lacks warmth or regard between them#the minute Theoden's recovered he sends Eowyn away as though she's not longer of use to him#he forgets her bloody existence before everyone in the hall#he has her wait on him while Eomer Aragorn Gimli and Legolas all get to sit with him#and in turn all Eowyn can do is look at him with cool pity#and at their parting she focusses more on Aragorn than Theoden#she clearly isn't feeling the love right now and why should she?#it makes Theoden calling her daughter and showing her some morsels of affection in Return of the King feel empty#like now yeah he can be bothered to acknowledge Eowyn a bit now that it suits him#but when other stuff is going on she falls to the back of his mind#there's enough unseen moments or gaps where perhaps if Tolkien had written them I might have believed in Theoden's love for Eowyn#such as their parting before Pelennor which was described as “painful”#but that pain could have meant a variety of things

man i have really been thinking about worldbuilding and exposition in books recently
when i was like, i don’t know, twelve-ish, I picked up this book about a teenage girl in a spy school. and i absolutely fell in love with it - I thought it was incredibly neat how the book just seemed to drop me into the middle of the story, even starting in the girl’s second year. in fact, the main character frequently referenced events from her first year (falling in love with a civilian, things ending badly, finding secret passageways, losing her mother’s trust etc.) 
and I actually really enjoyed the fact that the character had a rich and vibrant life outside of what i had read and that the book didn’t go out of its way to explain her past in flashbacks or anything. i understood the main takeaways and why she was reacting to things based on what i gleaned, and more than that i understood the growth of the character, why she was cautious in certain places but reckless in others, etc and i felt smarter for not being handed the answer on a silver platter
anyway it wasn’t until i finished the book and realized there was a sequel that i looked it up and found out that. in fact. i had started with the second book in the series.
oops.
#i will say i genuinely read the sequels and NEVER went back and read the first book#it genuinely felt like i understood the takeaways from reading the second book#it almost felt like i would be doing cammie a disservice by going backwards and undoing the progress she had made#anyway i just remember thinking about how cool it was that the author didn't go out of their way to explain exactly what happened#and yet i was able to understand what happened just by her reactions to this new guy#the oh. OH. of realizing she hadn't fallen in love with a civilian so much as fallen in love with the idea of civilian life#her life being made much more difficult from the loss of trust by her mother and teachers#kind of want to go back and reread it but i feel like reading ur childhood books again sets you up for disappointment#probably not the masterpiece i remember reading#but man it made so much sense bc of COURSE cammie wouldn't just like. give me info about how the world worked. her mum was headmaster.#ofc she knew how the spy world worked smh#so when they were like FUCK the secret passageways we used to sneak out are blocked off bc we got caught last year#we need to figure out either a) another way out of the school unseen or b) find more secret passageways#and i was like !!! yeah! of course! that makes total sense and adds an obstacle for the main character to get though!#and now i also know that cammie a) was sneaking out to see her boyfriend which means it was b) a secret worth hiding for some reason#idk that second book was the only bitch i respect

Buck and Eddie's conversation at Eddie's hospital bedside where they're discussing Chris in 4x14 is very much two parents debriefing over the wellbeing of their child

batman: unseen #1
[ID: a two panel sequence of Alfred Pennyworth giving Bruce Wayne stitches after a rough night of patrolling. In the first panel, we see the long stairs leading to the front of a bunch on monitors. Alfred and Bruce's silhouettes are only shown in a white light and from a distance.
The second panel is them up close. Alfred is standing behind Bruce as Bruce is sitting with his shirt off — which exposes giant welts and bruises and a few plasters. He's staring ahead with a dispirited frown. Behind him is the Batman cowl and cape, draped on the back of his chair and looming over Bruce's shoulder. Alfred is stitching Bruce's neck as he looks down at it with disapproval. Alfred asks Bruce, “Blood and pain aside, Sir, may I assume you won?” Bruce comments, “Every fight, Alfred, is a loss the moment it begins.” Alfred dryly quips, “Hnh — definitely a loss for your extravagantly scarred hide.” Bruce replies, “And for the psychological edge I've always exploited — until fear's mask began to slip.” END ID]

Sweet prince(ss) this, belladonna that, miss journalist here, my beloved there… do you even KNOW my name???
Tumblr media
#( do you even know it. )#( you seem like the type of guy who’d take me to Starbucks and have me use my name for the drink order because you didn’t know it beforehand#and couldn’t be bothered to ask. )#( we’ll be seven years into our relationship and you still wouldn’t know my name. huh. bastard. )#( belladonna me one more time I dare you!!!!!! )#( say my name!!! say it!!!! say!!!!! it!!!! right now!!!! prove me wrong!!!!!!! )#( but we both know you won’t. because you can’t say my name because you don’t know it for a DAMN. )#( throwing my hands into the air. tossing them even. )#( and then you have the audacity to beg me not to leave you!!! and that you’re scared of being left alone!!!! )#( alone in all encompassing darkness. in chains. shackles. as you’re bound to a life as a flower shrouded in darkness who’s only option is#to wither and to rot away until you become nothing more than a hollowed#and empty shell of the man you once were because someone else wrote a story in which you could never win. and you’ve lost your mind to#the madness that lies around every corner. and you’ll always be beaten up and broken down. dissected and torn apart. your mind broken. your#soul abused and your life torn to pieces like paper in the shredder. )#( and you shall never be able to love for your love has been twisted beyond repair and the only love you can give is the mercy of death for#loving you is akin to loving the grim reaper as he takes you away by your hand to a distant place unseen by man. )#( BUT EVEN THE GRIM REAPER WOULD KNOW MY NAME SO……. WHAT’S YOUR EXCUSE. /j /lh )

hi river!! (is it river? i just realized i don't really know your name. damn.) how was your day? did something especially good happen? i hope it did c:
Hello! River or Starling is fine. I used to lean more towards River, but recently, I've been enjoying Starling more. It's because when I was younger, I wanted to give my self op insert a name. I took the name from the game "To The Moon" and then googled old rare last names, causing it to become River Starling! Which words out, because the name keeps accidentally foreshadowing other things I keep adding to that character, or creative writing I give for them.
I had a boost of productivity today! I know it might not be much, but I successfully brushed my teeth, vacuumed, and trimmed my dogs nails today. I recently used a new shampoo and this is only my first time but, it made my hair look a little more wavy than normal. And despite it being a moisturizer type, my hair doesn't feel heavy or dirty yet! I also tried a new chip snack today, too, and it wasn't bad! It's just a plain chip, but the texture is a little puffy but not too much, so it's comforting. ♡
My nephew came over today too. He's rather energetic but he's a good kid and interactions can be rather fun. He chased my cat, Linus, back into my room and closed the door saying "I don't want any cats to be let out" so that was, I never got a direct answer from him as to why.
I woke up and listened to music soon after, so I might be trying that another day to see if it helps make me productive right off the bat. I also am having pizza tomorrow, so it's good!
