@mcyt-yuri-week Day 5, Rose/Thorns I never stop thinking about SL episode 8 never ever

#gempearl #pearlgem #shinyduo #shiny duo #trafficshipping #I tried to word it a few different ways but I feel like its still so easy to interpret this as negative but noo its positive #because the thorns here are referencing the scarlet persona that Pearl's embraced. being left with nothing but it - the thorns #But it's not that Gem likes her just for her scarlet persona. She likes her for her. Pearl's not just thorns #Gem doesnt really care about the “thorns” or the petalless rose stem. she cares about Pearl. She thinks Pearl's cool (thumbs up emoji) #Pearl changes into her scarlet fit like she has many times before with the purpose of scaring people & leaning into her feared witch thing #but Gem's just like “omg slayyy” and its the best. And to Pearl it's like whoag #Gem never saw how she changed. Never saw her be ostracized and the aftermath #But she thought that the Pearl she did see in SL was cool and so easily accepted her when Pearl herself though herself so unacceptable #she got love from the Mounders and BigB and that warms my heart but Gem being a newcomer immediately embracing Pearl is just #it hits different #whoa jimbo way too many tags hghghgh #mcytyuriweekvalentines #at first I thought about smth like “where the others saw thorns you saw a rose” but I thought it was more fitting this way #I guess you guys be the judge of that haha idk what Im saying #tubby art

THE FACT THAT THE ONLY INSULT SHE COULD THINK OF FOR HIM WAS THAT HES QUIET AND GLOOMY, AND SHE HAD TO LIE ABOUT THE REST OF IT..

#i need a compilation of all the things the characters have actually heard saiki say #cuz i honestly have trouble determining which lines he projects and which r just thoughts #cuz im pretty sure she could easily be like 'um hes kind of a dick..' but she didnt #she didnt even think of it cuz she doesnt think that at all</33 #omg i just remembered that ive seen people cite this scene as a reason why she has comphet and doesnt actually like him.. #which is really funny cuz its the opposite of whats happening lol #those people just didn't pick up on the fact that she started lying but is it not obvious #'teachers always get mad at him' he purposefully gets average grades and brings no attention to himself guys how did u think this was true #saiki k #tdlosk #the disastrous life of saiki k. #saiki kusuo #teruhashi kokomi #terusai #<-kinda #meows post

Not me as somebody who crochets on the reg getting criticisms/unwanted comments about everything I make:

"You always use the same colors" :/

Me: can't help it I'm a thalassophile and therefore I must always use beige, khaki, turquoise, teal, aqua blues, whites of all shades. Let the coastal creations commence!

"Nice bag. You know, that looks perfect to use only for holidays like Easter"

Me: ...my coastal bag is to be used every time I feel like it. What are you talking about.

"Those oceanic colors don't match with your current outfit so don't use it."

Me: it's not about what looks nice TO YOU but what feels right and fun to use FOR ME.

"Why don't you add (whatever) to your creation. It'd look great if you add (whatever). And, how about next time, you actually use a leather bag bottom instead?"

Me: I don't want to.

"You sure can't take a comment or a slight criticism. Why are you like this?" :/

Me: you sure can't mind your business.

"Why are you doing 2 projects at once. Finish one and start the other I don't get it."

Me: oh you sweet summer child ohohoho...you just don't understand the mind of a crocheter do ya?

"You know, if you make something for somebody it sure won't be coastal themed or whatever. You have to try something different."

Me: who said I'm making anyone ANYTHING? They don't want to pay the correct price for a hand-made creation so that won't be happening. Anyway, ONTO THE COASTAL THEMED SCARF!

It is kinda funny seeing people talk about Seungmin lately because he definitely has gotten more bold and confident for sure. He's also just getting opportunities to be perceived as an individual on his own as well for the first time in a while but it's still jarring to see people be like Aw he was always such a quiet goodie two shoes little nerd and it's like...... he was the one to leave and seek out his own vocal coach and blatantly talk about it, which of course lead to I.N and Lee Know also doing the same, he was the one to go on bubble and tell off sasaengs who used to camp outside their old dorm for invading members privacy but also because it effected other residents and staff at the complex, something that i'm certain upper management wouldnt have been happy about, and he wasn't curt or nice about it either. like he's never actually been a wallflower, he's always had a pretty strong backbone and seems to stick to his principals, its not really new.

#even silly shit like bringing up drinking even tho staff has clearly told him not too #like yeah its silly but its still sticking to his guns of being like we arent actually children anymore thanks #the food thing too like in an old 2 kids room he said something about not being able to eat on his bday bc they were filming so evidently #there was a moment in time when he caved to the shitty diet obsession kpop had but ever since hes never really said anything like it again #instead hes telling everyone to eat well and reminding people to have dinner or lunch every other day #even the comment about growing his hair out but then being like lol the stylist probably wont like me saying that or whatever #and like the yeah im going to the gym but im not lifting. dont expect me to bulk up. im doing it for stamina<< that made me cackle #bc i did see people on twt being like but what if seungmin got buff tho omg hed be so hot 🥺 Well him bein buff isnt what this is about #so he went and made sure people were realistic. not everyone needs to be noticeably cut yk #idk maybe bc i watched most all the skz content all the way through #and now i go back and gif stuff i notice patterns more easily than if youve been here for longer and havent watched older stuff #for a while- maybe? idk its just funny but i also see takes a lot and have to stop myself from going No <3 #anyway this is my obligatory insane ksm tangent of the week. see you in 5 minutes. #🐶

#Like naur offense my eye twitches sometimes. #this time it was that post going 'omg how did she go from I'm a mirrorball shining for you to feeling like a pathological ppl pleaser' #like what are u talking about sis. that song is inherently about people pleasing and always has been. #what do u think 'I'll show u every version of urself'/'you are not like the regulars'/'still on that tightrope' meant #and don't get me started on the interpretations of invisible string post-joever #talking abt 'omg she was just making up connections how is a teal shirt related to grass' #LOIKE THAT'S THE POINTTTTTGAHENEJAHENRKSHDBEKXJSB #it's not actually about a fated love it's about being so caught up that you create the mysticism #the magic is there because I BELIEVE it is. the ordinary things are wondrous and fateful bc i CHOOSE to see it that way. #almost as if 'we can leave the Christmas lights up til January' was a song. #that one enrages me I can't lie. swifties are too dense to handle folklore I'm confiscating it u can't play with it anymore.

We Shouldn’t☁️

third person

Maverick runs his hand along the jet’s nose from where he was perched on it’s step ladder, doing a last check before he goes back to his apartment after a long day of avoiding Ice, both in the air and on the ground. It was strange, he wasn’t exactly averse to him, especially as he’d declared them wingmen, but he would prefer not to come face to face with him. Maverick knew he didn’t want to see him right now, though; it was almost sunset and he was just about to fall asleep standing.

The sun was also just at the right height to shine through the doors and burn his eyes as badly as if he stared into the engine of his jet if it was on, so he unhooks his aviator sunglasses from where he’d put them in the collar of his flightsuit and puts them on.

He sighs and drops down from the ladder just as a familiar voice calls out his name.

“Maverick?”

Jesus what does he want? Maverick clenches his jaw slightly as he turns around from where he was stood. “Ice,”

“You alright?” he asks.

“Mhm,” Maverick replies, squinting at him even through the dark tinted sunglasses. “What do you want?”

“To ask you,” Ice starts off slowly. “Why you’ve been avoiding me,”

“I haven’t,” Maverick glances at Ice’s own aviators hooked around the chain of his dogtags.

Ice furrows his brow. “Yes you have,”

“I haven’t been avoiding you,”

“Really?”

“Yes,” he frowns. He had been avoiding him, and he didn’t want to admit it, nor the reason why.

“Funny,” His voice said everything but that. “Since I gotta admit you’ve been helpfully called away every time I seem to get close to you,”

Ice noticed more than he would have liked him to. “Maybe you just have bad timing,”

“Bad.. timing?”

“Yup,” Maverick fixes his eyes on Ice’s even though he couldn’t see his. The sunglasses offered a layer of protection from his cold blue stare.

“Well it seems like you’re not being called away right now, so I’ll ask it again. Why have you been avoiding me?”

He was difficult to negotiate with, Maverick could give him that. And now he’d trapped him in a metaphorical corner and he hated that he didn’t know whether he hated it or not. “I’ve just been tired, after going up, surely you understa-”

“I understand that, but every single time? Even when I’ve tried to talk to you in the morning? Before even going up?”

Maverick clenches his jaw. “Yes,”

Ice exhales heavily. “You do know what being wingmen means, right?”

“Yes,” he says slowly.

“Then you should also know that the basis of that is being able to talk with one another,”

“What point are you trying to make?”

“The point of why you are avoiding me,”

“Well I’m not avoiding you now, am I?” Maverick could feel the air around them starting to crackle with tension.

“That’s only because I’ve cornered you,”

“You didn’t think I’ve noticed that?”

“You don’t notice things very often, so no,”

“I don’t notice things? Are you kidding?”

“No, Mitchell, I’m not, but if I have to spell it out for you I will,”

“I’m not a child, I don’t need you to,”

“Then just tell me why,” Ice takes a step closer to him, and his cheeks suddenly felt hot.

And out myself? “No,”

Ice blinks. “No?”

“That’s what I said,”

He’s silent for a moment, and Maverick thinks he won this round.

“Then tell me why you haven’t noticed me checking up on you ever since we came back from the Layton,”

Now it’s Maverick’s turn to be silent. He hadn’t realised it was that often that Ice had been trying to talk to him, he hadn’t realised he had been avoiding him for that long. “I haven’t,”

“I know,” Maverick realises his voice wasn’t angry, it was hurt, which was worse.

“I-” He doesn’t know what to say. He doesn’t know if there was anything to say, so he removes his protection, holding the sunglasses in both his hands, staring at the crossbar linking the black lenses.

Ice stands away from him, not looking at him, facing the shadows, the back of his hair dyed gold by the sun, his face expressionless. “I’ll go,”

“No, no wait Ice-” Maverick lunges to grab his hand.

Then Ice’s eyes were on his and he felt as unstable as an autumn leaf in a cool breeze.

“Don’t,”

“Why not?”

And his words fail him again, so he does the next best thing. He kisses him.

It’s fast and dangerous, just like Maverick, and he immediately lets go of his hand and steps back from him, toward safety, towards the jet behind him. “That’s why,” he says, his cheeks flaming.

Ice stares at him, lips slightly parted, feeling everything and nothing at once. All that time, all that time checking up on Maverick and him leaving or making an excuse, it all was a ruse to distract him from the fact he was feeling the exact same as he was? The fact that they were hiding their feelings from both each other and themselves for... what? The worry that what they were feeling was unrequited?

And all he wants is to kiss him again. So he steps closer to him and grabs his head and smashes his lips against his.

The kiss and the ones succeeding it are heaven, are fast and slow, everything. Ice’s back hits the wall of the hangar, he doesn’t care, Maverick is there, his arms around him, trying to get as close as he can. The kisses are so long, neither of them can breathe, so that’s the only reason they let go.

But Maverick doesn’t lean back in.

“We can’t do this,” his voice is hushed as he presses his hands to Ice’s shoulders, pulling back from the taller pilot.

Ice fixes his eyes on him. “I don’t care,” his voice was just as quiet, his fingers gentle on Maverick’s cheek.

“You should,” Maverick replies, wishing he wasn’t suddenly doubting it, wishing he wasn’t going through this, the one time he’d let his feelings for the aviator slip and he’d kissed him, and here he was, telling him that they shouldn’t do this. “It won’t last, the Navy’ll find out and we’ll be discharged,” He tries to step back, but Ice’s arm around his waist stops him.

“We won’t be found out,”

Maverick drops his eyes from Ice’s, and looks down to his chest, the setting sun was sparkling in his eyes, his aviators were on the floor a few feet away, having been knocked out of his hands. He wanted to kiss him again, his chest was aching as if they’d been apart for months, and not forty-five seconds.

Ice adjusts his hand ever so slightly, tipping Maverick’s head up just enough for him to look back at him. “Mav,” he says. “The Navy isn’t here,”

He opens his mouth to say something, but in one swift movement, Ice has spun them both around and kissed him.

And Maverick melts. Melts into the kiss, into Ice’s hand tilting his head up, into his hand on his lower back, into him, into Ice. He has that aura around him, Maverick wasn’t too sure what it was, but now he knows, he knows for sure. Its the aura of his hidden feelings for him, that Maverick had misinterpreted as... whatever, something else. He didn't really care about that now.

He was kissing him after all.

Least favorite misconception/assumption about the historical Franklin Expedition?

This is another one I've been thinking about for days and although it perhaps isn't exactly in the spirit of the question, seeing gifs of poor Fitzjames' ignoble end today has made up my mind.

-

My least favourite misconception/assumption about the Franklin Expedition (and an idea I've seen repeated far too often on this site) is that the men in some way deserved their fate.

The idea that they were just some kind of evil white colonialist hive-mind intent on destruction. That they fucked around and found out.

That they got what was coming to them.

I just find that to be such a callous take, and one woefully lacking in any kind of nuance!

As I've said many times before, we mustn't ignore or excuse the evils of colonialism and empire, or the very real damage wrought by the Expedition and its crew members. That's central to the narrative surrounding the Expedition both in real life and in fiction.

But the crew members' participation in colonialism doesn't negate their basic humanity either.

For better or worse they were still people, still human beings, and ultimately, I don't think they deserved their grim fate simply because I don't think anyone deserves that fate.

#This one got real long and real incoherent real fast #And I don't know that I'm articulating it as well as I'd like to #But I stand by it nevertheless #Apart from anything else #I just don't like the idea of lumping people together into one big homogenous group #And then deciding it's permissible or even desirable for death and violence to be enacted on that group #That's not for anyone to decide #Like 'OMG Isn't it so funny and fitting that those silly white men died gruesome terrifying deaths as a result of their own hubris?' #'Um...no...not really? I don't want that to happen to anyone to be honest - even silly white men who did objectively bad things...?' #The Terror #Asks #Ask Game #Friendos!

that perennial fic writing experience. where you have the idea and you know the shape of the story you're trying to share. right? right. 😅

a bajillion months ago i had sent @witch-and-her-witcher some of my ciri fic draft. and after some back and forth about what was going on, here was Cee's conclusion:

i gotta tag @xianvar here 'cos i have said the same thing to them once upon a time and their big bang turned into a galactic 100k bang. i can hear them cackling already. @witch-and-her-witcher you were of course right. 😆 i've managed to write 300 words here and there for the last few weeks. all wrapped up in the ciri book feelings. and. well. here is the current wordcount next to my original wordcount goal:

14k of ciri feelings. and i think i've pretty much reached the part of the story that i had actually intended on writing when i first had the idea.

also i know @sassaffrassa will be pleased to hear that i didn't let myself get lost in all of the other story ideas that sprung up during the drafting process. 'Cause I remembered the core of what I wanted to explore with ciri and ye olde book events that got glossed for game canon. putting all the other ideas in a separate document so I don't get lost again. too many ideas.

i doubt it'll stay at 14k but i think (knock on wood) i have the foundation down by now. gonna try to get it into better shape in the next few weeks if i can keep my momentum going.

writing!!! am so tired. reading!! am so tired. but by god i am going slowly keep doing the things i'm enjoying. ❤️

#ciri grief wip #my witcher wips #writingdora #honestly its a miracle i've managed to get this much down #burnout is so bad but i do feel better getting even the smallest amount down #really am just writing 10 and 15 mins at a time even tho i yearn for the days when i could do 45 min sprints and bang out 1500w #it's taken me so much to even write a post about the fic #but omg i did it. i just want people to know i am doing a thing that i am proud of am excited by even tho it's just very heavy #a lot of this really just started growing out of my 3rd or 4th reread of tower of swallow #can i find a readable snippet to share? will do that. brain going very slowly these days but hmmmm
