Chapter 5: Commandeering a ship
General POV:
In a matter of seconds, they escaped the brick and were off toward the port.
They took a halt under the bridge to think out their plan further. Or well Jack was planning their escape plan.
'we're going to steal a ship?' Will asked sheepishly.
'That ship?' Will said he was pointing at the ship Jack was looking at. It was the Dauntless pride of Port Royal.
'You will never get away with stealing that' Rose said softly
'Commandeer.' Jack simply said.
'We're going to commandeer that ship. Nautical term. '
He pointed at the interceptor.
He then turned back towards Will and Rose.
'One question about your business, boy. Or there is no use in going.'
Which made Rosemary clear her throat.
'Oh no not you Love.
I'm pretty sure you're ready for this. I was talking to him.' Jack said while pointing at Will.
'So. Will, How far are you willing to go to save her? '
'I'd die for her.' Will said while looking straight into Jacks’s eyes.
'Oh good! No worries then' Jack said while turning around towards the ships.
Rosemary's POV
We were at the bottom of the sea in a few seconds. With a Dinghy over our heads.
I was looking around I never saw the sea bottom and I never thought I would like this at least.
Jack was walking in front of the Dinghy I was walking in the middle and Will was walking last.
'This is either Madness or brilliant.' I said while looking around.
'It's remarkable how often those two traits coincide.' Jack said simply and was not impressed he must have done this a hundred times he was a pirate after all.
'Oh Will watch out there is a crate here, don't step in it' I told him.
But it was already too late Will had stepped into the crate and he couldn't get his feet out otherwise he needed to let go of the dinghy.
The climb to get on top of the Dauntless was a pain in the ass. At least for me. My clothes were heavy from all the water and I wasn't really used to climbing but I was not about to let Jack see my 'weaker' sides. So I put up with it and got on top of the Dauntless with them.
'Stay close behind me.' Jack said simply.
'And please don't do anything stupid'. He reminded the both of us.
Jack walked up towards the lower deck and down the stairs before yelling.
'Everyone, stay calm! We are taking over the ship.'
Will jumped over the stairs to stand behind Jack
'Aye! Avast!' will shout.
Which made me and Jack roll our eyes. As I walked closely behind them flicking Will against his head.
'Idiot' I said but pulled my sword anyway with a smirk towards Gillette.
Who was chuckling at Will's comment. But when he saw me he frowned.
'This ship cannot be crewed by two men.' Gillette said mockingly.
I cleared my throat.
'And what are you wearing Rosemary! And what in the world are you doing with these two imbecile’s one even threatened your life yesterday' he said while looking disgracefully at me.
Jack was about to speak up towards Gillette when I pushed him aside.
'Listen to me you silly cock sucking prick. ' I scolded him.
Which made Will raise an eyebrow and Jack grin.
' One.' I raised a finger.
'I needed to do something to save Elizabeth. Because we both know captain.. I mean 'commodore' Norrington will need years to think over his plan to be the hero of this story. And you as the first mate will never go against him. Because you're up HIS arse so far he almost throws you up'
' two.' I raised a second finger.
' I can do whatever I want. Wear whatever I want. And Marry whoever I want. So please take this ring back. Or I will put it so far up YOUR arse that you can never reach it again.'
I said while pulling the ring of my finger and throwing it overboard.
'Oops,' I said with a smirk.
Jack was looking at Will with a confused look.
'Rose was supposed to marry Gillette next summer' Will said.
'But she hates his guts and he never showed any interest in her at all. So she was planning on doing this for a long time. I think this was the best opportunity to do so.'
'ah,' Jack replied.
'You'll never make it out of the bay' Gillette said with a smirk.
'Son, I'm captain Jack Sparrow' Jack said while cocking his gun against Gillette's face.
Which made me smirk even wider.
'savvy?' Jack said with a smirk.
You could almost see Gillette shitting his pants. Which I adored happily.
Maybe this Sparrow wasn't as bad as I thought.
On the shore. James Norrington was looking out for the supply of the Interceptor. When a soldier said that he should look over the water. Where he saw Gillette in a dinghy waving around and screaming that the ship was taking over.
'They're taking over the ship!! Sparrow, Turner and Rivers!! They're taking the Dauntless'
James took his spyglass and shot It over at the Dauntless. Where Jack and Will were maneuvering with the ropes.
'Rash, Turner. Too rash' James said.
'That is, without doubt, the worst pirate I have ever seen.
And what is Rivers doing with them? She really is a dagger in my eye. Maybe we should be happy she's gone
I ran up the stairs looking at the bay.
'Here they come' I said with a smirk.
'Stupid stupid commodore'
'Now hide!' Jack said
And after a few moments, we could feel the hooks of the interceptor getting on the Dauntless and everyone was getting on the Dauntless.
' Search every cabin, every hold, down to the bilges.
And Bring Rivers to me. I'm not done with her attitude just yet.' James spat. While walking aboard the Dauntless.
But by the time everyone was on the Dauntless, Will, Jack and me flew over toward the interceptor.
Will cut all the ropes towards the Dauntless and Jack went up towards the wheel.
Will and I took up the anchor and off we were. And before the men of Norrington knew we were on their ship, we were already to far out reach to get back on with ropes.
Jack stood at the wheel smirking and waving his hat towards Norrington.
' Thankyou Commodore, for getting us ready to make way!
We'd have had a hard time by ourselves!'
I ran up towards the Upper deck and smirked and even waved at Norrington. Before ducking down because the navy was shooting at us.
'Set topsails and clear up this mess!' James barked towards the soldiers.
'But with the wind across her stern, we won't catch them.'
'I don't need to catch them, I just need to get them in range of the long nines.' James barked even louder.
'Hands, come about! Run out the guns!' The first mate barked towards the sailors.
'we are to fire on our own ship, sir?' He asked the commodore.
'I'd rather see her at the bottom of the ocean. then in the hands of a pirate.' Norrington said.
'Commodore he disabled the rudder chain, sir.' A sailor said.
And before they could anchor the Dauntless down. She went straight ahead toward Dinghy Gillette and his men were in.
'ABANDON SHIP' Gillette screamed and they all jumped off the dinghy.
I heard his scream and laughed loudly.
'Asshole' I murmured to myself.
'That's got to be the best pirate I've ever seen.' Norrington first mate told him.
'So it would seem. ' Norrington said with venom in his voice.

Which characters in the Auraverse and Thirdverse have pets?
I thought this was such a fun question that I decided to draw out my answers! Right now I’m only answering for the Auraverse because there are a lot just for that ng, and thus it might be less overwhelming to show the Thirdverse pets in a separate post.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
1, 2, and 3. Each of the ColorOak sisters has their own cat, and they reflect just how different (and alike!) the sisters are. Red Cedar has a big, fluffy Maine Coon named Mint Bliss. He is just as majestic and noble in attitude as Cedar likes to imagine his namesake is, and his name reflects her strong grounding in her own faith.  In sharp contrast, Blue Velvet has a hairless Sphinx cat named Velour, to go with her own name. This kitty is spoiled rotten and put in all kinds of outfits for aesthetic photos (which she accepts; Blue wouldn’t make her do it if she fought against it). I mustn’t forget her little corn snake Precious either, who has become Velour’s best friend. Velour loves to chill out with Precious wrapped around her like a sweater as if it’s the height of luxury. Much like her own position between her two sisters, Violet’s kitten is a middle ground between the other two cats in being a regular domestic shorthair. As a black cat, often thought of as a harbinger of bad luck, he was the last in his litter to get adopted. But Violet took one look at him and fell in love, naming him Maestro to reflect the kind of greatness she saw in him. He’s also registered as her emotional support animal to help with her anxiety, and he is very good at doing so.
4. Varmint Venom works with snakes of all shapes and sizes for a living, but only two of them permanently belong to her. You’ve met them before, but here we have Bartholomew (green) and Brenda (brown). Brenda is a real escape artist, never able to be left alone unsupervised even when she’s sealed in a tank. Bartholomew can be a feisty one, always watching for potential prey and flicking his tongue in anticipation, but Varmint knows just how to keep him tame and happy, being the snake whisperer she is.
5. After getting her career back on track, River Morganite eventually gets to a place where she can relax and pursue other interests, which includes adopting a macaw for companionship. Her name is Regina, which is short for Princess Regina Pluma Corona the First. She’s not quite as much of a diva as her name would suggest, as blue and gold macaws are known for being quite sociable. But she still wants to be the center of attention at all times, which is fine by River as they make quite a fabulous pair. She loves letting Regina perch upon her horns like she’s her crown…but she may have also accidentally taught her some curse words. Bloody hell.
6. Due to a mispronounced chant during one of her witch coven’s biweekly meetings, Milkweed has found herself the “mommy” of a giant, carnivorous plant that was once naught but a tiny sprout. When she tried to make the plant grow she didn’t expect it to grow this big, but she doesn’t regret this mistake one bit. Itsy Bitsy is as sweet as can be…to her at least, and to those that she has made clear she trusts. She wouldn’t let him hurt a fly though…I mean a pony, because he does eat flies. She loves to sing the Itsy Bitsy Spider song to him while feeding him spiders, flies, and other bugs and small critters, as their special nightly tradition.
7. Eclipse’s best friend is a little hermit crab named Io, named after one of Jupiter’s moons but much preferring to hide from the great big universe around him. A feeling Eclipse can relate to all too well. They feel like the little crab understands them in this way and that brings them comfort. When they talk to Io about their day to get stuff off their chest, he just sits there with his cute little claws folded and listens, which is all Eclipse could ask for sometimes.
8. While not one individual pet, Snowcone is a friend of the butterflies, having started raising them as a form of therapy. It brings her great joy and comfort to be part of something bigger in contributing to the health of butterfly populations, but she also loves to watch them flutter around in freedom and peace for the sake of each individual. Glasswing butterflies are her favorite, looking so delicate yet being some of the most beautiful of all!
9. Rosemary has an ant farm! When she’s not out playing with Sandpiper, or visiting her grandparents and cousins, she loves nothing more than to sit down and watch her ants roam around, sometimes for hours. It’s so fun to see the inner workings of their lives in such a small box, and it’s a quiet activity that she sometimes prefers over the constant activity of family time.
10. Also not really a pet, but Amour Étreinte really has a charm with the birds and other woodland creatures! Almost everywhere she goes at least a few of them are following her, even in the Crystal Empire which doesn’t have any real forests. And every note she sings has the birds tweeting along in perfect tune. There’s something absolutely magical to it, a surprise and delight to many even in a world where magic is the norm. She’s a true Disneigh Princess!
11. Duchess Daisy Lace Raspberry III is the only dog who has ever been worthy of Best in Show, and anypony who even dares suggest otherwise is a jealous, vindictive bitch. She’s Southern Belle’s pride and joy but everypony else’s nightmare, with a nasty bark AND bite and a trail of slobber following her almost everywhere except when she has to look nice for the cameras. Even other dogs whine and cower in her presence. But Southern Belle is fine with that, in fact she’s downright proud of her dog’s reputation. That only means she’s the best of the best, just like her owner.
12. One might think that a high-society, somewhat snooty filly like Ingenue would have a sharp distaste for rodents, but that couldn’t be further from the truth when it comes to rats. They’re very clean, sociable and intelligent animals and she sees through all the myths that suggest they aren’t. She even has three of her own, a trio of sisters named Dolly, Dora, and Donna. Yes they look kind of alike, and yes their names are remarkably similar, but Ingenue will still get extremely insulted if you dare get them confused. If anything, their little tutus should be a dead giveaway to their individuality (and their owner’s fashion taste). 
13. If anyone would be the type to have a spoiled little dog who’s literally ancient and racks up thousands of bits in vet bills, it would be Saltwater Taffy. Little Gumdrop has hardly taken a single step outside of her purse in his 21 years of life because Taffy wouldn’t dare make him get his tender little paws dirty. Nor has he eaten a single bite of brand-name dog food because he deserves much better than that. (I’m exaggerating with the walking bit, he does get adequate exercise and is legitimately well taken care of despite also being coddled.) If Taffy dares leave him to fend for himself alone in her big, lavish castle, even for 10 minutes, he is absolutely beside himself. And in true Taffy fashion she enables all of it.  But the arrival of her daughter meant welcoming another new furry friend to the family. For Spring Palooza was born with some disabilities that required more assistance with mobility and pain management to help her achieve her best life, assistance which could be best provided by a service dog. Enter Jellybean, the slobbery, constantly-shedding, yet eternally easygoing Saint Bernard tasked with meeting Pally’s caretaking needs. Taffy didn’t expect to be the owner of a dog like this after choosing such a tiny, prissy little creature for herself, but it’s the breed Pally chose among the options presented for a service dog. And Taffy would do anything to make her little girl happy. As for Gumdrop’s opinion, Jellybean is his sworn enemy, but Jellybean has not a single clue about this feud.
14. Because of Stockholm’s love of all things historical, Discord thought it would be a great idea to gift her a real life prehistoric animal as a pet. Now. he could have been extra chaotic and pulled a Jurassic Park with some dinosaurs, but after seeing her get emotional over the evolutionary relationship between Joshua trees and the now-extinct giant ground sloth (Megatherium), he decided that was what he would create for her. Stockholm couldn’t be happier with his selection, loving nothing more than to lounge in the sloth’s favorite tree with her new friend who she’s named Coconut.
15. For as long as she could remember, Slumber Party had always wanted a cuddly little pet to call her own, but she couldn’t have one in the orphanage. But in her free time she did do some reading and decided pretty early on that she wanted some guinea pigs. So when she got adopted, it didn’t take long for her to successfully convince Luna to take her down to the pet store to pick out her new best friend. She settled on a bonded pair, who she’s quite fittingly named Snuggles and Cuddles. She could sit in her room for hours just watching them play and giving them lots of love!
16. As a young adult, Etheria decides to really lean into their gothic and intellectual side and get a pet raven, just like in the poems of old. Edgar lives up to expectations in being extremely intelligent, able to solve puzzles and even use tools to aid Etheria in her work. In her true blunt fashion, Etheria likes to pit their pet raven against her brother Raven, even though the latter is plenty intelligent in his own right. It’s all just affectionate teasing.
17. When he reaches his teenage and young adult years, Meteor Shower follows his mom’s hoofsteps in being a lover of reptiles and gets a badass-looking bearded dragon as a pet. Many reptiles are considered stereotypically masculine pets, especially when the owner is such a guys’ guy like Meteor, but despite his friends’ confusion his little lizard is actually a girl! Pepper is obviously completely indifferent to what she’s called, and is content being part of his aesthetic because it also comes with companionship and quality care.
18. After seeing how much Sahar adored the sea and all the colorful life teeming within, Heavenly Glow decided to give her the ultimate surprise for her birthday and commission a personal fish pond to be built just for her. Needless to say Sahar loved it; in fact, it’s one of her favorite birthday gifts she’s ever received! She loves to watch the fish explore their colorful little habitat, and Heavenly loves watching her love enjoy herself. Although, as something of a half-fish, Heavenly is surprised to find herself feeling slightly jealous when Sahar picks a favorite fish from the pond.
19. The apartment building they live in isn’t particularly welcoming towards pets, but even if it was, Minted Glacier and Blueberry Sticks probably wouldn’t have room to take care of one after putting all their time and money into raising Mint’s daughter. But a pet found its way into their lives anyway when a raccoon fell through their ceiling one day and Mint was unable to deny the begging of his daughter and sister. The young CheBe named him Stripy, but Blueberry has her mind in the gutter with her choice of spelling. Unsurprisingly, this literal wild animal soon proved to be too much to handle, so after less than a week Mint finally put his hoof down and “gave him to somepony with a bigger house” (released him in the wild).
20. Meet Polished Antique’s prized purebred Pekingese, the latest in a long line of esteemed show dogs. Her name is Priscilla Pearl (AKA PeePee), and she is the daughter of Jet Set’s dog William Warwick (AKA WeeWee). PeePee lives a very pampered life with only the most expensive dog food and most luxurious beds. But her whole lifestyle goes out the window when she finds anything even slightly edible on the ground, including literal garbage. Which is what Polly’s cooking looks and tastes like, but he doesn’t seem to realize that even when it sometimes sets the smoke alarms off. In his mind he’s just making his precious girl a special treat. And of course, her eager approval of such putrid sludge tells him absolutely nothing about the actual quality of his dishes.
21. While she doesn’t have a pet of her own, Luster Dawn has a pond behind her house that’s a popular attraction for ducks. When she’s not busy studying or spending time with Flurry, she likes to sit by the pond and meditate on its stillness during her breaks. When she’s lucky a duck will come by and accept her offering of corn and peas that she tosses into the water, and sometimes even a family! Seeing the little ducklings follow their parents reminds her of herself in a bygone era, but in a heartwarming way. She’s happy for them.
22. Following his family’s legacy, Bumblebee has healed many ponies and woodland creatures alike, but one case is extra special to him. One day he found an injured baby squirrel with no parents in sight and vowed to do whatever it took to nurse him back to health. He always tries to follow proper protocol to not hurt their chances of returning to their proper habitat, but he just couldn’t help but fall in love. He even gave the little critter a name, Theodore (AKA Teddy). The time eventually came to release Teddy back into the wild, despite how much it broke Bumble’s heart, but it only took Teddy a couple days to return and make it clear that he was staying. He wasn’t physically incapable of surviving alone, he just didn’t want to. Now he’s Bumblebee’s little companion and helper, and neither would have it any other way.
23. After her father died and it became clear that her family would be spending a lot more time at the rock farm, Limestone decided to buy a rooster for the place to keep everypony’s schedules on track (really because Applejack wanted a piece of Sweet Apple Acres there and she couldn’t say no). She named him Igneous as a homage to the late patriarch, even though this rooster is a lot more loud and boisterous than his namesake ever was. He technically belongs to the whole family, but aside from his parents, Mountain Peak is the one who enjoys interacting with him the most. He just needs to invest in some earplugs!
24. As if the universe didn’t hate Summer Beauty enough, it also made her allergic to literally every furry animal. Yes, even the hypoallergenic and hairless ones, it is possible. And she doesn’t particularly care for reptiles or fish so she hates that those are her only options if she doesn’t want to be sneezy or hopped up on allergy medicine all the time. Applejack (despite her own disappointment) tried giving Winona away to another branch of the Apple family when Summer was little and her allergies were first showing up. However, the filly was so utterly and despairingly beside herself that AJ realized Summer really would rather sacrifice her sinuses for her mental health. So Winona came back and now the family has another dog named Ryder, who Summer insists is “the only one around here who likes me anymore.” She loves him the most out of all her siblings and cries the hardest when he dies, and the allergies are only a small price to pay for his love.

09/03/2023-Two of three spiders I saw at home tonight and a phone photo of beautiful hellebore a flower I’ve enjoyed a lot in Winchester of late and rosemary in Abbey Gardens this lunch time.
At lunch time I got brilliant views of a Peregrine at Winchester Cathedral Winnie I believe, feeding and flying. I also enjoyed seeing Jackdaws here and getting a top view of a Grey Wagtail at the River Itchen with periwinkle seen nicely too.

Update No.2: The order's been answered, I've asked what Unovan Pokemon they would like in return but Alola is ahead in time from Unova and I went to the Pokemon Center at like 2:30 A.M. and then dipped, so let's hope this won't result in something terrible happening like the trade being forcibly cancelled or me having to stay up and then walk around in daylight with people

Chapter 1: The ceromony
Elizabeth’s POV.
 Elisabeth woke up from a long sleep. She had that one dream again.
The last couple of months its haunting her.
Its always the same one. When her father Rosemary and herself crossed the sea towards Port Royal.
And they saved William Turner.
 Elizabeth stood up and walked over to her cabinet, she opened a top drawer and clicked open the bottom of the drawer. To reveal an double bottom. There was an old dusty necklace. And she picked it up.
Elizabeth put it around her neck and took it in her hand to look at it closely.
 ‘LIZZY! ARE YOU DECENT?’  An loud voice sounded at the other side of the door.
‘I GOT YOU SOMETHING GREAT!’  The same voice sounded and before Elizabeth could answer the door. The owner of that voice was inside her room.
  General pov
 ‘Lizzy, I swear to god look at this! I worked my ass of it all night ! but I think you’ll love it! And so will Captain Norrington or should I say Commadore Norrington.’ Rosemary winked at Elizabeth.
Rosemary was a strawberry blonde 20 year old girl with green eyes. Her father was once commadore of the fleet the fleet in command of Weatherby Swann. Elizabeth’s father.
Sadly on his last voyage he got caught in an pirate attack and his whole crew was killed by an fast ship with black sails.
Her mother couldn’t live with the loss of her father and killed herself.
Weatherby couldn’t live by his mistake to send the commadore to that island and took Rosemary in as his own.
By then he was about to be governor of Port Royal a new British colony in the Caribbean sea.
So he took everything including Elizabeth and Rosemary and they went to Port Royal.
Everyone has been good to Rosemary and she actually turned out to be a wonderful tailor.
So she started learning from Port Royal’s tailor and eventually she was happy there and made all of Elizabeth and her own dresses. So for the ceremony it was no different.
 Rosemary’s POV.
 I was already wearing my dress. And Golden yellow dress with an with a tight top. To make my front look slightly bigger. And a wavy skirt.
For Elizabeth I made a beautiful paper yellow/white dress with a lace top and sleeves. I also made a cute hat to match it perfectly.
‘Comeon Lizzy ! let me help you into this dress!’
She pushed her best friend behind the blinds and flipped out a corset.
‘This will be a bit of a struggle but it will look great! Everyone wears one at the place I get my fabrics’
She pulled at Elizabeth her corset and she took a sharp breath.
 General POV
 Mr swann came knocking on the door.
‘Elizabeth are you decent?’
‘Its okay Mr swann im already here!’ Rosemary said back and he came into the room.
‘im wondering what kind of gown you have made for Elizabeth this time Rosemary’ he smiled at the blinds proudly. Even though Rosemary wasn’t his daughter he was so happy he took her in.
Elizabeth had never been alone in her live, she always had a big sister to look up to in Rosemary.
And Rosemary always acted nicely and behaved. She understood her place and was working in the working class now. But she was Elizabeth’s first hand tailor and she still attended all the party’s , funerals and ceremony’s with the Weatherby and Elizabeth.
Elizabeth let out a sharp breath and Weatherby asked if she was okay.
 ‘That’s difficult to say’ Elizabeth replied plainly
‘Lizzy are you really telling me how to dress you for the ceremony. Be a good girl and put up with my skills!!’ Rosemary complained back to her.
 Weatherby chuckled at the two girls bickering at eachother, when he got called by one of his servants that he had a visitor.
  Rosemary’s POV.
 I finally got done dressing Elizabeth and she looked stunning as always.
‘ You look amazing Lizzy! Here let me help you with your hat. ‘ I put Elizabeth’s hair up with a few pins and then place the hat on her head.
‘Okay you’re all done now Liz’ I said with a huge smirk.
Word had spread around town that Captain Norrington was going to ask for Elizabeth’s hand. And for the both of them that was an amazing choice.
‘ Let me just touch up myself and then we can go’ I said while looking in Elizabeth’s mirror. I had let my hair half down half up. My ends were curled and wavy and I had a tight braid in the middle of my head going down in the middle. I had two small pieces of hair on the sides of my face so it still looked a bit playfull. And took my umbrella with me.
‘ Lets go Liz’ I said with a smirk its gonna be a big day for you.
 When we walked down the stairs we saw mr Swann talk with Will. One of my best friends and Elizabeth her first crush which she still had I’m sure.
‘ WILL’ I schreeched and flew down the stairs pulling him in for a hug.
‘Oh it has been so long’ He smiled at me and said he had missed me to. But I could see he couldn’t keep his eyes of Elizabeth. I started smirking but didn’t say anything.  ‘ Lets go mr Swann.’ I said with a soft smile and walked outside with him towards the carriage.
Elizabeth closely followed and when her father didn’t look at me I wiggled my eyebrows at her.
She turned as red as a beet and looked away from me.

Episode 149: The scent of jasmine
Yesterday’s episode gave writer Ron Sproat six major points to communicate to the audience: None of the characters yet believed that the relationship between mysterious and long-absent Laura Collins and her son, strange and troubled boy David, involved physical danger or crime, much less a threat from the supernatural realm. An police investigation taking place off-screen and centered in…

Palestine فلسطين
x / x / x | x / x / x | x / x / x
My goal with making this post is to use my platform to raise awareness and encourage solidarity and action for the people of Palestine. Over the past few weeks, I have felt powerless to watch the destruction of Gaza before the world's eyes. However, I realized that I still have a large platform despite this blog's inactivity. With this, I would like to share information about Palestine and what you can do to help.
In the above post, I have sought out videos of Palestinian food, culture, art, architecture, and nature to share. Israeli propaganda is trying adamantly to dehumanize the population of Palestine in order to further justify their genocide. Regardless, no matter where you are in the world, humans recognize and understand what it is to be human. What it is to make art, to share food with your loved ones, to travel, and laugh, and sing. To experience heartbreak and hardship, and to experience joy. To dream about the future. To stand up for what we believe in, to fight in the face of injustice.
If you are an American citizen, use your voice to stand up for what's right. Contact your representatives. Demand a ceasefire in Gaza. Boycott companies and celebrities who voice their support of the Israeli settler state. Protest. Donate. Organize. Fight. We are strongest when in community with each other. Our US tax dollars directly fund the murder of Gazan civilians. Make it known that we will not stand idly by while news outlets and propagandists lie to our faces about the atrocities enacted by the IDF and the Knesset.
Here are some links for information on Palestine, as well as places to donate:
decolonizepalestine - A website aiming to educate and dispel myths about the Palestinian people, ran by two Ramallah residents.
US Campaign for Palestinian Rights - You can use this website to find groups organizing near you.
Palestine Action US - The US branch of a directive aiming to dismantle the Israeli military regime, directly funded by the US.
Hirbawi Kufiya - The last and only Kufiya factory in Palestine, as featured in the gif above. You can pre-order a kufiya which will be shipped once the blockade has been lifted.
Let Gaza Live: Ceasefire NOW - An easy way to send letters to your representatives to demand ceasefire in Gaza.

"something floral": literature student blabbering about the usage of flower symbolism in "nevermore", how it ties to the theme of insanity and a little bit (a lot) about shakespeare.
Tumblr media
from lenore's perspective, flowers are closely associated with isolation caused by her trauma and supposed "hysteria". floral pattern wallpaper accompanied her loneliness for days, months, even years. image of the flowers signaled that lenore's position would remain unchanged, that she was stuck, that she would continue to slowly loosing the clarity of her mind.
Tumblr media
having torn the wallpaper off the walls, lenore believes that she will never see this image again, but flowers continue to accompanying her. lenore sees them again during her first meeting with annabel lee. and during the last one, too. she may have managed to get out of her lonely room, gain more strength in her legs, find a new friend, but lenore is still trapped. she's the daughter disowned by her parents, a stain on the family reputation that must be hidden forever. the image of flowers doesn't let her forget about it.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
similar symbolism is also not alien to annabel lee. episode 66 is interesting in particular, because it directly quotes ophelia's monologue. I'm a big fan of shakespeare, it was he who instilled in me an interest in floral symbolism. a year ago, for a conference on foreign literature, I wrote an article about flower language of "hamlet". it's not available in english, but I'll list down some points that I considered relevant regarding "nevermore".
• rosemary can serve as a keepsake between lovers and also between the dead and the living. it could be seen at both weddings and funerals. in the old days it was also believed to be helpful in mental illnesses treatment.
• pansies, just like violets, symbolize innocence and devotion. ophelia doesn't consider the people around her worthy of violets, since she blames them for the death of her father.
• rue is a symbol of eternal suffering; grieving over her murdered father and the loss of her beloved hamlet, ophelia leaves some of the flowers for herself.
• the image of daisies has a close connection with the concepts of innocence, fidelity and eternal love. in shakespeare's tragedy, this symbol is overshadowed by the fact that in the world around ophelia there's no place for these beautiful things. for "nevermore" the symbol is also not so positive, since the readers are already familiar with daisies. they were on that wallpaper in lenore's room.
Tumblr media
it's impossible not to note that annabel lee recites the monologue while in the bath, in the water. ophelia decides not to resist the river flow. her life turned into a tragedy: she was left without a father, her lover has seemingly lost his mind. her own sanity is also called into question. ophelia sings cryptic songs, goes into the field to weave a wreath, gives flowers to other characters. in the eyes of those around them, hamlet and ophelia seem crazy, while being the only sane and honest people among them. there's no place for tender, innocent ophelia in a cruel, deceitful world, so she drowns.
Tumblr media
annabel lee also reflects on how both she and lenore are considered madwomen. her meeting with "leo" is accompanied by floral pattern on the annabel's dress. their madness is contextual, they both are perfectly sane, but don't fit into the system that could be leading to real madness with time. "all madwomen die twice. at least twice".
Tumblr media
now about the arboretum. it obviously has a lot of flowers, but in my opinion this place is interesting in a different context. lenore and annabel visited the arboretum twice to discuss upcoming plans and such, and there are many parallels, both visual and narrative. not much time has passed since last time, but their situation has changed. they seem to look on their past selves from the upper level, having their conflict more acute now. I'll make a more detailed post about it later.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
and now I'll just focus on how the characters in this arboretum full of roses behave as lost and confused as in the phobia-inducing flower labyrinth from earlier episodes. “the closer you get to beautiful flowers, the closer you get to their thorns,” says duke in episode 38. the flower imagery haunting the main characters doesn't let them forget that their sanity is always on a verge of slipping. and once a flower falls from its stem, it cannot be fixed.
Tumblr media
p.s. guess which writer’s works I chose for a new article this year?
