#yellowjacketsedit #yjedit #akilahmari #lyricsongifs #yellowjacketscentral #ok i WANT TO DISCLAIM. im not 100% sold on pitgirl mari im not 100% sold on anything. the show will tell me when its ready! #that SAID im incapable of giffing unless theres tragedy involved and also i think it would be an interesting trajectory for them #akilahmari work imo because while different they are both very vulnerable in the same way #they want to be seen and cared for and they arent in an environment where thats easy #and like. yeah the you tell me all the time to keep my eyes on the road gif IS the gay scenes #but its also akilah being in tune with people and their emotions. ofc she knows taivan love each other ofc she knows lottienat need a momen #and later ofc she knows lottie and nat need a moment!!! that skill serves her as tension escalates #whereas mari cannot read a room + does not filter herself. and akilah often gets the best of that from her! #but also. akilah shoots her a look when she presses javi about the missing bear meat. but also. mari isnt wrong to be concerned #mari is vulnerable and scared !!!AND!!! heavily concerned about survival. so whereas akilah and mari are both scared to hunt javi #mari is the second to run to grab javis body. akilah follows still horrified. mari is better suited to survive in a lot of ways #but also tends to step on toes!!! but also mari is so loyal and so like. attentive? eager? in a way akilah isnt #so mari says more controversial things but ultimately follows status quo in a way akilah is less inclined to #even in terms of skills mari can cook and akilah can sew but eventually what good is stitching people up when they need to eat. you know. #IDK i think theyre soooo interesting and im rly looking forward to their relationship hopefully developing bc i think theyre cute and fun #but i think their dyn could get sooooo interesting. even in terms of letting mari go. like. many connotations #akilah can giggle when the jokes are still funny and they can find each other in any given space. but does that matter if it cant save them #anyway ive run out of tags to tag the chars for my blog and im being really brave about it btw. #also its 2 am and i wanna post and im being even braver about that (not deleting this tag but its not 2 am my time as i post im drafting<3)

alex is so real for not realizing he was bi despite the amount of times he was clearly checking out and appreciating other men. it really do be like that.

finally finished the priory of the orange tree after putting it off for like a year, and putting aside the fact that it's insanely boring, way too long, and the romance is lackluster, it certainly was a choice to, in a book at least in part about finding common ground and coming together, basically go "religion a is correct and good and its believers can continue on their merry lives, but religion b is a 100% incorrect wrong bad lie founded by a wrong bad misogynistic lying liar, and everyone who believes in it should convert and in fact we're going to end the book by heavily implying that the recently-converted queen is going to slowly but surely pressure the entire country to convert because their faith is wrong and bad". like that was certainly a decision that samantha shannon made.

#idk i don't love an entire religion being painted as objectively inherently bad and wrong #especially since none of the six virtue's actual teachings are that bad like #and also esp since the only other thing we learn about galian berethnet is that he was fucking r/ped by his own mother #and was so distraught upon learning this that he killed himself #the fact that aside from that its just like 'he was a lying liar who lies and hated women' just didn't sit right with me... #the priory of the orange tree #priory of the orange tree #the roots of chaos #anti booktok #samantha shannon #like the entire time before this was revealed i was like #'ah its so obvious - both faiths are going to end up being a little bit wrong and a little bit right' #'of course it will be revealed that cleolind and galian actually worked together to defeat the nameless one' #'and learning this will really press into the characters that they themselves need to work together to defeat him again' #but instead like???? #and like even with the kalyba stuff it would have been so easy you can say like: #cleolind and galian worked together but kalyba (canonically posessive and jealous and willing to do horrible things to keep galian w/ her) #uses her magic to make cleolind believe that galian betrayed her which she then goes and tells her priory #+ in an effort to keep as low a profile as possible for herself while disguised as cleolind she makes galian believe that he did everything #and when her disguise falls he's so distraught that he kills himself and so the only one who knows the truth is kalyba #who certainly has no motivation to reveal the truth

i hate that the solar eclipse just now serves as a reminder that nobody loves me.

#🍂 arian's shit #IT WAS SO BEAUTIFUL AND NOTHING HAPPENED. but yeah #i will always think of the solar eclipse i witnessed and think about that #two people one of them my friend the other i thought i could consider my friend but HE PROBABLY DOESN'T GIVE A SHIT. #they both talked and did their things and laughed and they are so damn close to each other it almost made me cry and reminded me that #it was such a profound moment too when i realized what was going on #they were in another world that didn't have me and i get that. i do. they have known each other for a year and i abruptly showed up #two months ago and one of them we are getting close she likes me around #at least i think #the other one he is nice he is supposed to be like this he is nice to everyone that is who he is #so what is happening: he is completely indifferent to me. most he did was remember my name and face. but he is nice. #i like them both so so much it almosg does hurt when i stood there awkwardly almost like i was intruding #and i realized that i have never not been close to anyone #no acquaintances all the friendships i have had they sre the reason why i live and i know that they live for me too #we have known each other since kindergarten. they held my face and cried and told me that i was love when i was leaving for the last time #they love me. i am sure of it. #but now i don't have anyone near whom i do love. people don't love me. i used to be love. #it also hurts that i am Average Person In The World #i am not funny. i do not have unique quirks. i do not have a single talent. #all i am good for is saying the wrong things all time. #even in my old life i was someone. someone who isn't the same as the person who saw the solar eclipse today and felt all this #i was the idiot. I WAS THE IDIOT. i was the writer person. #i don't feel like any of these things now. they had a thing in common: their capacity to love and be loved. #i love very easily but i am not an easy person to love. #vent post #god this is such a small little thing i am the most pathetic thing in the world #feel free to scroll away don't even read this shit #arian contemplates his universe

Seeing the bigoted discourse around HotD as an Indigenous woman from an interracial extended family, one full of 'illegitimate' circumstances of births that the Canadian government has always been SO eager to weaponize, and especially as the daughter of a 60s scoop survivor who found his way back to his birth family which means we navigate belonging to two families, of two different races, in two different ways... it's actually hurtful and a little scary to see all the vitriol levelled against fictional 'illegitimate' children by a MODERN audience.

This is a weird example but it's also the most famous. You know that saying about how you shouldn't insult Trump for his body because he'll never hear or be hurt by it, but the people around you who might share those traits will? How when you insult a powerful or abstract figure in a really low way, that insult is not just for them?

Well, when you express bigotry over fictional characters, obviously said fictional character isn't going to receive it. But real people who share those traits will.

I swear, I know I'm basically setting myself up for a never ending 'to write' list at the moment, but I do intend to someday dive into the subject and SHAME the bigots.

#hotd critical #hotd fandom #asoiaf fandom #ffs even in 'western' culture adoption goes back thousands of years #it's literally how Caesar passed his power to Octavian #And how Matilda's son claimed the throne #not only was adoption a thing in MATILDA'S time but so was weaponizing how easy it is to dispute 'legitimacy' of birth #You know MATILDA? Rhaenyra's historical inspiration? #they were really like: we're not saying it's because she's a WOMAN. The problem is that her mother was “practically a nun!” #making her a bastard even though she was claimed and named by her father who also granted inheritances to many of his known bastards #though for some reason when Stephen agreed to a truce where he adopts her son as heir over his own 'trueborn' son that issue did not come u #bastardphobia is a weapon of the patriarchy wake up you guys #And of course it's been consistently used as a way for the Canadian colonizers to deny rights to both parents and children #hotd #hotd bigotry #asoiaf bigotry #team black #asoiaf #which shouldn't even be a thing because there shouldn't be 'teams' when one is literally team bigotry #anti team green #and anti HBO using bigotry to fuel bad writing to drive engagement with a previously non-existent “team” discourse #i say non-existent bc before hotd TG didn't exist in the same way because the bigotry wasn't obfuscated by misuse of social justice languag #ndn just trying to enjoy online spaces without encountering BIGOTRY at every turn #Yes I'm working on my fic it's complicated because work is complicated #My god in our unholy year 2024 I swear some of you are more bigoted than actual medieval lords #Because even in Matilda's time people would say “we're not bigoted for that OBVIOUS reason! We're bigoted for an 'acceptable' reason”

one time i was talking to my american online friends about stuff and i was like "haha yeah people always say i look ambiguously european but cant place what i am specifically" and they were like "i dont think europeans have a look though." what do you mean. you dont believe different ethnic features exist...?

#just was reminded of it lol #one i no longer talk to used to insist that i was british because of my not-british accent and would not believe me when i said #no... i dont live there #id told them i was aussie. they didnt believe me though. like they thought i inexplicably had a brtisih accent despite never #having been there ever #another i said i didnt get a SSCoE for HS but a diploma. thats not what diplomas are here but they kept insisting i was wrong #like i have the certificate....its not a diploma.......... thats not what it says. #but they were like just call it a diploma : / its basically a diploma #i know AU isnt that different to the US but at least we are usually a little less annoying #i did see that asshat who was like 'uhhhh climate change means you dont have snow? not for us australians a-durrrrr X D' or w/e #what a twat. even from a purely selfish perspective we still also have climate change. its very noticeable. come on #anyway for a full decade i basically never met anyone online who wasnt USamerican.................... #so. i do have some amount of frustration. #they got mad at me for saying bikkie or pressie as slang even tho theyre super easy to figure out from context. also it doesnt matter #'STOP using slang you KNOW us americans WONT UNDERSTAND' #we were talking about christmas!?!? pressie is straightforward!?!? even if not...why are you so indignant #on a more awful note i knew one sheila (white) who was like very vocally/performatively into blm #but then one time when i mentioned aboriginal australians she was like 'what...ive never heard of those before...' #youve known me for years even if you never looked at anything in your life ever id definitely mentioned them before #pretty fucking important. both for my country and when caring about indigenous/first nations peoples. oldest surviving culture on earth #but she was like how was i supposed to know about them : / #because i thoguht you cared about these issues!?!?!??!? also just generally ohhh my god #how could you be vaguely aware of AU history as being similar to your own and then say you didnt know we had indigenous peoples #like. what do i even say #do you think... only america has indigenous peoples?????? #its fine not to know a foreign countrys history in depth but just...the absolute basics....about an issue you claim to care about... #sigh. ok this is too long. i feel that last one is justified to complain about tho

came to the slightly horrifying conclusion tonight that i would genuinely probably have an easier time nailing dirk's voice if i spent more time on reddit

#dirk's got a very unique cadence that for some reason is extremely difficult for me to write properly #his headspace isn't too hard to get into #his entire personality is abandonment issues and autism i can figure out how he thinks about something pretty easily #but god i CANNOT make it sound exactly like him #i have the opposite problem with roxy actually #roxy's got a distinctive voice that is both easy and fun #but jesus i cannot get into her head she is like a black box #haha insert void joke here #part of it's that she and dave talk very similarly #dirk and rose don't #like yeah they both kind of sound like they're vomiting up a thesaurus but i cannot imagine rose unironically saying the word 'fuckin' ' #in the middle of a string of philosophical navel-gazing #whereas dirk does that multiple times in canon #homestuck #dirk strider #original

What is one song that reminds you of your f/o more than anything?

#The ultimate comfort songs of all time #okay so aira has like a good handful. but currently beyond his inspo song (true love restraint) #mania by the blake robinson synthetic orchestra is SO aira #alec is a bit harder to pinpoint he isn't inspired by a song like many of my ocs are. i would say never change by apashe #just cause i've associated him with that song for a very long time even though the au i'm currently Obsessed With doesn't have much to do #with the themes of that song #honestly no idea for fenris or anders cause i'm not nearly as attached to them as i am to my own ocs :') #okay lentil. is a very new character. uhm. #OH MY GOD I FORGOT TO SAY MEANT TO BE YOURS FROM HEATHERS FOR AIRA??? THAT SONG IS LITERALLY HIM ITS SO HIM #lentil i'm gonna say freeze your brain from heathers cause it's so funny and it just reminds me of him. #lentil is NOTHING like jason dean but aira is a LOT like jason dean. just freeze your brain is lentilcore #for self-inserts that's super easy cause they're literally me but different. #for cam it's easily nukeochita by seto sounder or birthday kid by mili. or bathtub mermaid or red dahlia both by mili #cam is a very mili sort of character #for morrigan!!! very very much me rn moonlight and black by machigerita which is the song she's inspired by #she is literally just an allegory for bpd and for extreme guilt and misery. #another song that really fits her is confrontation by anthony warlow from the jekyll and hyde play. also birthday kid by mili #proselfship #proship selfship #pro selfship #proship safe #oh no way i forgot about ALYA #okay in my defense. alya is a newer character too i just made her for this au she's under construction i don't have an amazing grasp on her #i would sayyyy perhaps idontwannabeyouanymore by billie eilish? that's such a cop-out tbh #heathaze🧡 #frostbitten❄️ #true love restraint🗡 #moonlightandblack #languishing🥀 #satyrical💚

i think amy has adhd because she wants to do every hobby in the world and gets defensive when she’s rejected and speaks in run on sentences when she’s excited

#waves . idk where my adhd begins and autism ends so forgive me for not being more specific it is smth that i am Serious about #but i’m also here to have a good time and say haha i do that #amy has been shown to cook and draw and bake and garden and box and god what ELSE . it goes on #she wants to do it all #and i think it can tie in with a sense of purpose that she kind of freaks out over when it becomes less clear #and making changes is both exciting and easy for her but she is slow to make them until she Isn’t #i’m drawing from what i remember . from the top of my head i’m not trying to make stuff up

My feelings about the staff meeting were 100% spot-on, and it turns out that the staff meeting was, in fact, about ME!!!

#ranntics #a 15 minute bitchfest about how ''people have been calling out when they don't have enough sick time to cover their missed days'' i.e. ME #then a 10 minute vent about how some teachers will bleach toys and set them out to dry and then leave them over the weekend #and then call out sick so the poor assistant manager who was subbing in the room had to put them all away 😭 which was so stressful for her #I know the first part was about me bc after the meeting my CA approached the manager and apologized for being out (her kids have been sick) #and the manager said ''it wasn't about you it was about LeeAnn calling out for the hell of it 🙄'' #I HAD COVID AND FLU SYMPTOMS. FUCKING SHOOT ME. #apparently her issue is that I text her ''I am feeling unwell and will not be in tomorrow'' instead of a list of symptoms #so she thinks I'm lying #.....but like. if I'm lying it is just as easy to type ''vomiting all night sorry can't come in'' #to me sending her a list of symptoms and just saying ''feeling unwell''are the same thing. if she had an issue she could have told me #instead of wasting the valuable time of 20+ other people to vent about it to a group. #oh and the bit about toys being left out was too specific to be about anyone else bc I'm the only person who cleans their goddamn toys #and mine was the only classroom she had subbed in this week #they had both of these talking points typed out and printed on an agenda that they passed out to everyone in the meeting. #y'all both have offices. we could have talked in there. #they don't like confrontation so they hold an ENTIRE MEETING WITH EVERYONE JUST TO TALK SHIT ABOUT ME?? LADIES.

Love how my grandma and aunt have the audacity to be mad at me when the first thing she says when I wake up and leave my room is calling the dog a bitch for pissing on the rug and then wonder why I don't want to interact with them

#maybe pay attention to the dog when she wants to go outside to go potty instead of watching Facebook videos all day #she won't piss on the rug if she goes outside! its not that hard #can't say she isn't trained bc you both fuckin ignore the dogs obvious body language #so we're all just gonna be pissy with each other for the rest of the day bc nobody in this house can properly communicate with each other #and the cycle continues #i can communicate with my friends easy but family? nah. they just completely ignore anything and everything #like how I've constantly told my aunt I'd like to be left alone when I'm mad and what does she do every time? orbit me like a gd satellite #what's a good way to vent frustration bc I'm reaching a boiling point sooner rather than later lol

watching taxi driver but what i am actually seeing is the elaborate alternate version im constructing in my head where lucifer has to escort sam through hell in order to save bela, who didn't deserve the fate she got, and sam is so filled with hope that he can right this wrong and complete the trial and then when they get there she's a demon <3

#'escorts' thats what lucifer intends to do anyway but it turns out that hell Likes sam #hell wants to be what sam wants. it will shape itself for him. #sam wants hallways and easy to find souls? sam is getting hallways and easy to find souls #and cages of course. sam expects cages. so there are cages. #anyway. cue lucifer getting increasingly upset that hell is out of his control. because it isn't fully in sam's either. #meaning they're both in a pretty vulnerable position. lucifer less so he could break out of this pit. not the cage but regular hell? easy. #but sam could get snagged on something on the way out. torn to bits. eaten alive. and lucifer doesn't want that. #anyway back to bela. they do find her. she's long since turned to a demon. it's a way of survival down here and she survives #and she doesn't fucking want sam to help her. in her own words she'd say how she's nearly clawed her way out of the pit herself #that sam wants to take her deeper in to take her out and fuck that she's almost made it on her own #and add to that that a demon aint going to heaven. so now what. #(well now is the time for arguing and sam being like We Don't Have Time And I Can't Leave You Behind Without Being Broken By Guilt. #lucifer (not helpful): what if i just catch her and drag her out. || Sam & Bela: NO. #i do think bela accompanies them out i think she sees that she has to #(forgot to mention. bobby is not in hell in this au. because we don't need him to save.) #anyway my point MY POINT is. they still need to save Someone. and sam's like. who am i supposed to find. #the answer is jake talley btw. who has not broken to hell in all this time. and is quite despised by the current leadership. #(also. down the bloodline to be a potential lucifer vessel. so when lucifer sees him he goes <3 hiiiii.) #and all four of them dig their way out of the pit. jake goes to heaven. he and sam have A Moment. #and bela is like cool :) thanks :) now fuck off and leave me alone i hate you die and goes to do demon shit #idk. thoughts.

The idea of percy, the clever one, the guy with the good ideas, just waking up in the middle of his beauty rest and accepting to play tea party through the night with vex when no one got into it with her is just.... poetic cinema.

#alright episode 61... ill stop talking about percahlia at some point... #like so much happened and maybe i love trinket a lot more now #but listen there's something about vax beibg grumpy and cuddling kiki #and percy waking up grumpy and being like 'yes that's a plan I'll follow' @ #and just sit down with vex with some cup of tea and waiting the entire long rest for the fairies to appear #....... behind the scenes fic of that moment mayhaps.... they talking about mundane stuff #vex filling him in with how syldor (or whatever) havs changed since she was a little kid #percy telling her how different from his book the fey wild actually is #they both finding that maybe it's different and it feels weird with how it's still nice #that maybe different and unexpected isn't that bad #you see my point here can someone hear me #also PERCY is CALLING her DEAR every FUCKING TIME he talks to her IT'S DRIVING ME UP THE WALLS #vex do something about this man please he's gone like come on #its sooooooooo stupid how he does sooo many small and imperceptible things for her which is like so easy for anyone to miss #but he KEEPS DOING IT and calling her dear out of NOWHERE and smiling everytime she or anyone says her title COME ON #he's in so deep. i adore them so much. #kelly watches cr #kelly says #dl #txt

1. What is your favorite trope? NYOOM @maquiscursed // Meme: For roleplay muns

1. What is your favorite trope? Nyooooom! Okay fine, just because you're you, you're getting a second answer for this out of me and I'll make this shippy. Suffer me, Ven. God, I'm going to call myself out massively here, but: reverence, reverence, reverence. Yeah, I've written a simp before and it was honestly one of my favorite things to write, and I can't even explain to you why. But there's something about writing a character that looks at another and for one reason or another, they are irrevocably the only thing that they see. And then writing that in a way that isn't a difficult or frustrating read; I loved that challenge immensely. But even outside of that, imagine reverence in the steps before it ever becomes something that can be acted upon, where it's this intense longing? God, where you get to write what a glimpse does, what a simple touch means and does to another. And then losing that person? Yeah, I'm sorry, I love my longing and angst equally. Hi, hello, I did say I'd call myself out. Any way, I'll give you another one, just because I love you as I do: peace. Even just the concept of it in terms of a character, but even more so in a dynamic, romantic or otherwise. There's a dynamic that comes to mind with Kafka in all its layered complexities. Kill me, honestly— I may be difficult to start a ship with, very truly, but once you touch on one of them in the right way and pique my interest? I won't let go.
