She's hilarious but there's two videos where she starts to speak more mumblingly
ok first of all these are brilliant and i'm losing my mind and i love you, thank you for curating these to me.
i will transcribe them in a bit but i just felt the need to leave this "little" (it's long sorry) note:
as someone who's been raised catholic i just want to say that she is pretty wrong about almost everything she said about catholics, and i say that as someone who hates catholicism with my whole mind body and soul and who's been traumatized by this stupid fucking faith to the point where i can't get into a church without breaking into sobs dauihdasiuh. the catholic guilt is real but catholics are absolutely allowed to divorce and use contraceptives, and also have sex before marriage. the first one is met with some guilt esp from women altho honestly i think it's more due to mysoginist reasons than religious reasons, and the second and third ones are commonpractice and if you say that it's wrong and bad everyone will think you're a fucking weirdo
and even with the divorce thing, while the guilt is there (im pretty sure half the reason my mom doesn't divorce is because she would feel guilty about it, although again, i feel like that's got very little to do with religion and way more with internalized mysoginy), i cannot stress enough that divorce is allowed, almost everyone i know has divorced parents and they're all catholics. the church's official position is kinda weird (as of now pope francis basically said that it's "morally necessary" in some cases but he also referred to ppl who divorced and remarried as "imperfect", but like, it hasn't been forbidden for years, so much so that people get second marriages at catholic churches literally all the time, and i kinda feel like ppl overestimate how much ppl care about what the pope says. at least here in latam, cuz we've always kind of freestyled religion since it was imposed on us anyway, but like... in my experience the average catholic practitioner is INCREDIBLY less conservative than the vatican and i feel like most people don't even know what the pope says or doesn't say. and i'm saying that as someone whose grandfather almost became a priest and only gave that up because he fell in love with my grandmother, and he's been a ferverent catholic his entire life. also two of his kids divorced, one married a divorced woman, one is gay and living together without marriage with his divorced boyfriend, one never married, and one had two kids before marriage which necessarily means that they fucked, and none of that was ever a problem to him. oh, also, my dad had divorced AND he was a buddhist when him and my mom married. currently he is a spiritist)
i think it might be possible that u technically have to ask for "permission" to the church to remarry in church, but in practice i think it's more of a ritualistic thing than actually asking for permission, cuz i've never met a single person who had them say no. it was pretty much "hey local bishop guy so my husband sucked and we divorced can i marry again" "sure lol". obviously it sucks that you even have to ask, but it's nowhere near as strict as people seem to think
the contraceptive thing is also absurd. like i cannot stress enough that my family would absolutely flip if they found out i DIDN'T use contraception. that was always something that my family reinforced very strongly, ESPECIALLY my grandpa. i've never met a single catholic who does not teach their kids to use contraceptives. my high school was catholic (literally named the Holy Cross, fun times, although they didn't impose the faith or anything. in fact almost half of the students in that school are jewish, but like, still, there was a priest in the school board) and we were taught to use contraceptives, put the condom in a banana and the whole pizzazz during biology class
like yeah the bible says not to but it also says not to mix different fabrics and that doesn't mean it's actually a thing that's reinforced in most catholic communities doaihdaj at least not here in latam. in here non-catholic christians are actually way more hardcore about the puritanism rules than catholics are, particularly evangelicals, which are kind of overtaken the catholics' traditional role of being colonialist fuckers as they are mostly from the US so they come to further US imperialism through religion here. watch out catholic church they're coming for ur crown
and even outside of puritanism, "non practicing catholics" are absolutely a thing like ppl who are catholic but don't even pray or go to church, much less care about that shit douahdsaohj so like the stereotype that all catholics are like the very small minority of hardcore catholics is like the stereotype that every muslim lives by the ultra-conservative muslim rules. it's not true and it's stereotypical and taking the minority ultra conservatives to be the rule when they are not
there's also the fact that there are many different currents of thought inside the catholic church (a little bit like with judaism although way less flexible than judaism is), some of which are very conservative, some of which are progressive. here in latam in particular the teology of liberation is extremely popular (it's the one my family subscribes to, and i'm pretty sure it was actually born here in latam) and it's pretty progressive. for catholics, that is
and like mandatory disclaimer that i am coming from my own experiences with latam catholicism, which i feel is different from other catholic countries - my polish friends for example have experiences with catholicism that are a lot closer to those stereotypes than mine ever were - but since most of the catholic population in the world is brazilian (like me), and second place goes to mexicans, i feel pretty comfortable taking it as a ruler to measure general catholic practices
with that being said, however, the catholic church can choke and die in a fire as it is a symbol of colonialism first and foremost, its proselitism is one of the worst things ever, and even the progressive currents are still way too damn conservative for my tastes. i just don't feel comfortable transcribing something that i know is incorrect and stereotypical (and that in some cases is used to further oppression like with the Irish in the UK or armenian catholics, and i've even had some US-diaspora latinos hear some incredible things from gringos who assumed they were catholic, or, in their beautiful words, "had latino religion". but obviously in most cases catholics are the oppressors, especially here in the third world)
also, her assessment in the third video is absolutely correct. A/B/O IS just conservative gender roles born of christian and catholic imposition transposed to a fictional world where the genders have slightly different names, which is why i, as a rule, hate it dauhdsaiuhdauhda and even though the assessment that catholicism is thaaat much more conservative than other christian religions (it's absolutely not, it's Exactly As Conservative) isn't true, catholicism is still where most if not all of western conservative rethoric is born of, and ugh, it's so refreshing to see someone understand this and put it into words so well
so yeah keep that note in mind but anyway, transcriptions:
[Video transcription #1: in reply to a tiktok question, which says, "now i'm thinking about the catholic guilt that would come with it oh my god". user @Omarsbigsister is saying, "good morning", she then covers her mouth as she starts to laugh, before continuing, "I guess I'm the religious omegaverse tiktoker now. I did not know catholic guilt was more than just sex, I thought it was just about sex, but nO. people who are catholic, if you don't know, they get guilt over every little thing, they get guilty when they eat, they have guilt when, like... [dismissive gesture] they have fun... it's messed up *cut* [mumbling i don't understand, sorry] in which you HAVE to be bonded before... *sticks tongue out* *cut* and catholics, from what i know, uhm, cannot get divorced, so you can't be unbonded, you're stuck for life with that alpha or omega, and then you can't use contraceptives so if you have a heat or rut, good luck, you cannot escape it, and on top of that, they preach abstinence, right, so if you're having a heat or rut in your teen years you just gotta deal with it alone like you are not allowed to be bonded, so, that would be really intense."
#2: in response to a question, which said, "follow up question: if in the real world hijabis are women, in ABO universe would hijabis be omegas of all genders?". the user is shown stroking her chin in contemplative silence for a long time, before she says, "actually, both men and women have to wear a hijab, it's just more visible on women, but men also have to cover from like, the neck all the way down... so like when you see them [mumbling i don't understand, sorry] that's their hijab. *cut* Islam is actually treating men and women, like, fairly somewhat equally, so, I feel like in omegaverse alphas, betas, and omegas would all be held to the same standards, and alphas and omegas would also be held by the same standards but then culture would ruin it, just like western culture has ruined it. for your other question. 'would muslim families prefer betas more, and would betas be spiritual leaders', i feel like everyone prefers betas more, but then also Islam came to like, uplift women [a written note then shows up, which says, "like girls are seen as a blessing to have as kids"], so like omegas would be seen as like, a blessing to have as a child.
#3: in response to another tiktok question, which says, "fun fact bestie you cannot get divorced in the catholic religion even if your spouse is abusive and horrible to you so in omegaverse how would that work?". she replies, "the reason that Abrahamic religions seemingly fit so well into the omegaverse universe is because catholicism specifically and christianity, uhm, all the gender norms and all the cultural norms especially in the west came from catholicism and christianity, they were forced on people, and then you know, people might not be religious, but the norms stay. but now you have omegaverse which is basically just a bunch of like youth exploring the youth through this, like, werewolf fanfiction trope, using all these gender roles that you have in society on their head, so, really, what i'm saying, is that... omegaverse is just catholicism fanfiction"
#4: she looks at the camera and says, "getting islamophobic comments is one thing, but getting islamophobic comments that say that muslims cannot be in the omegaverse".... she then breaks into laughter for a solid 30 seconds
#5: she is shown reading out loud, in a mock-outraged face, a tweet that says, "about to murder tiktok they try to make Ramadan a 'quirky' trend. it's a religious holiday. stop it, get some help. /srsly /g.", then a follow-up tweet, which says, "saw a tweet saying on tiktok they are asking questions about how ramadan would work in omegaverse. i'm done with y'all, just say you disrespect muslims and go". then another tweet by a different user, which says, "i tried to read, i got secondhand embarrassment-" they then break out of character and say, "oh, that's fair," before going back, "if it wasn't ramadan i'd be boxing those people right now. those people should be ashamed to even think that way wtf". then another, which replies, "well i'm not celebrating it, so as a non-muslim, i'll happily box them". then, back to her normal voice, she says, "i really was just making a silly little tiktok and seeing that stuff really hurts... i'm just kidding, i can't keep a straight face. you like minecraft youtubers, what are you gonna do to me? what are you gonna do to me?"
#6: in reply to a tiktok ask, which said, "prince philip was an omega". she slowly films herself as she takes a walk, finds the nearest trash bin, and tosses the phone there, before putting the lid over the box. end ID]

Steve/Tony Fic Rec List Part 1 - MCU Canonverse
Over 70 fic below the cut -- some in the middle still need summaries I will add over time.
These are listed in approximately the order I read them, so mostly random.
(MCU Verse. Comics Verses. Semi-Canon AUs. Full AUs. Post-IW. Still to come: a crapload of under 10k fic! To see the whole list as a Google Doc, go to tinyurl.com/streclist)
LAST EDIT: 8/30/19 - NEW FIC MARKED WITH ~
Guys and Bots by Scaramouche (@no-gorms). Follows the movies with the difference that they kiss at the end of AoU. Series with a hopeful ending (hey it’s CW it can’t be ALL happy). 32k https://archiveofourown.org/series/727023
Gained in Translation by Scaramouche (@no-gorms) . Short getting together fic between TWS & AoU. 11k https://archiveofourown.org/works/14020488
The Last Love Song of Anthony E. Stark by Jibrailis. Tony is infected with an Asgardian disease that causes slow memory loss. They travel to Asgard for a cure while he slowly forgets who and where he is. ANGST. 42k https://archiveofourown.org/works/349478
The Act of Creation Will Be Your Salvation by @scifigrl47. This is the first in a looooong series, the whole thing is pretty great but if you’re not into kidfic you can just read this first one, it’s self contained and phenomenal. Follows Tony from when he first creates Dummy through Avengers and beyond, focusing on his relationship with his bots (and then of course Steve). You WILL cry about robots. 85k https://archiveofourown.org/works/401961/chapters/662516
Four (Or Five) Reasons for Kidnapping Tony Stark by @scifigrl47. Also part of a long series, you can read the first two also but this is where it really picks up and she really gets a feel for the characters. Kidnapping! (Fairly mild) Torture! Tony being brilliant! Pining! Presumed dead! It’s tagged pre-slash but there is smooching so it’s really not. 78k https://archiveofourown.org/works/391599/chapters/642784
Sixpence In His Shoe by @scifigrl47. (Yes this is the same author again, get used to it I am a completionist and read everything.) This is one of the BEST accidental marriage fics I’ve read, omg. This ship is complicated by the fact that they are FAMOUS, so fake or accidental marriages have far reaching consequences that are fascinating to explore. This hits all my sweet spots. 103k https://archiveofourown.org/works/11443803/chapters/25647162
Lessons on how to be Worthwhile by @pensversusswords A beautiful Tony character study, hurt/comfort. 19k https://archiveofourown.org/works/2306576/chapters/5075171

As Sharp As Any Thorn by RurouniHime (@thegertie) Holy shit this fic. The angst is THROUGH the ROOF I had to stop reading a few times but damn it’s good (and happy ending!). Basically someone hacks Tony’s suit while he’s in it, causing him to attack the team and almost-fatally injure Steve. Steve spends a good bit of the fic in a coma and they don’t know if he’ll make it, while the public calls for Iron Man’s head, and Tony can’t get the memory of beating Steve out of his head. Damn. So good. 47k https://archiveofourown.org/works/725234

Id love to hear about the reddie wedding
WORM OKAY THIS IS LONG BUT FUCK I LOVE IT
so after IT Eddie lost his arm, and Stan lost his leg saving eddie’s life (stans still alive n well and he had a baby with Patty dw) and Eddie went to live with Richie in Beverly Hills after his recovery in Maine and properly divorcing/leaving Myra (with the assistance of Patty, who is a family lawyer, conveniently.)
After 2 months of the excruciating tension of living with Richie, because when he was knocked out in the hospital in Maine, Richie confessed how he had an infatuation with Eddie that didn’t seem like it was going away, Richie finally asked Eddie if he’d like to go on a date. 
They dated for 12 beautiful, sexy months before Richie popped the question. It was on the drive back from a trip to see Beverly and Ben, to meet their newborn girl. Richie pulled up to a beach in California, and they walked along it. Eddie got caught up in the way the sky looked, and when he turned to look at Richie’s reaction, Richie was on one knee.
“Eddie, you are the bravest person, I’ve ever met.” He said. “You’ve taught me how to take care of myself, you’ve taught me how to be strong and how to clean my dick properly. I love you and I love your eyes and your ass- I should’ve written this down-” 
Eddie’s crying be now. “I love yours too” 
“Gross.” 
they both laugh. they’re crying. Richie’s crying. Openly, on this beach in California with Eddie.
“Edward Christopher Kaspbrak. You’ve taught me that being in love shouldn’t be hidden, or feared. You’ve shown me what it’s like to feel loved and to love someone else and for the rest of my living days I want that feeling for both of us. Will you marry me?” 
“Richard James Tozier I will marry you.” 
The wedding happened in October. The two of them giggled with delight as they decided to get married on Halloween. There were flowers of all kinds everywhere, with lots of natural lighting. 
Richie had a red suit, covered in yellow, orange and purple flowers. He had his big orange glasses, hair slicked back was shaking intensely. Stan was his best man, and Richie’s father walked him down the aisle, reminding him of how proud he was, and how he loved and supported him. 
(in Richie’s heart, he knew if poor Maggie Margret Tozier were still alive, she’d be in tears)
Bill, of course, walked Eddie down the aisle. He wasn’t crying but his eyes were shining. 
Richie’s heart was caught in his throat when he saw Eddie. Eddie had a simple, silk baby blue suit with one arm gone so his new bionic arm Richie got him for his birthday that year was on full display. His hair was very curly, and blond, with one green ring pierced through his right ear. 
As soon as Eddie’s at the altar, he breathes out a hi, and Richie responds in the same tone, you look amazing, Stan, from behind Richie, choked out a sob. 
(Beverly, who was Eddie’s best man, was also crying.) 
As for vows, either I copy Brooklyn Nine Nine (as Jake is Richie and Amy is Eddie, x or script x) or it would go something like this:
Richie: “Okay, uhm. Eds. Holy shit. Uh.. Here we are. If you told me at 14 I’d be marrying a man at the ripe old age of 41, I’d laugh at you and call you names. But here we are. I’ve never met someone who challenges me so much, but lets me win anyway so as to not hurt me or break my disturbingly fragile heart. You’ve made me do things I’ve never thought about trying. You made me want to be a better person, and you’ve turned me gay. It’s no joke its true I guarantee it. And even though I talk for a living and everything I’ve ever done has relied on me talking or joking around. I love you too much to try and put it into words. You’ve officially left me speechless Eddie, and I love you for that.” 
Eddie: “When I married Myra, there was something in my bones that told me I shouldn’t. Like someone was trying to convince me it was a bad idea - it was. It was probably intuition, but the more I think about it, the more I begin to think it was your voice. When we were kids, I hated your voice but now.. It’s all I hear. I almost left Myra at the altar. And I thought marriages were supposed to be dull. But you’ve showed me more colour than I could describe. And I know that when I’m with you, Richie, I’ll be smiling and laughing for the rest of my life. I love you. 
Eddie: “But I have some bad news. There is a bomb at this wedding.” 
Richie: “what?”
Eddie: “Your butt. Your butt is the bomb, there will be no survivors.”
Richie tries to hide the tears that to stream down his face. The dam is broken. Richie is crying. 
“I love you so much.. You’re the love of my life.”
{from here}
“Do you, Richie Tozier, take Eddie to be your lawfully wedded husband?”“I do.”Richie turns to the crowd. “Or do I?”
“Richie..”
“I do. I definitely do.”
“Do you, Eddie Kaspbrak, take Richie to be your lawfully wedded husband.”
“I absolutely do.” (Apple-solutely)
“You may kiss the groom.” 
Contrary to popular assumption, Eddie grabs Richie by the collar and dips him to kiss him, and the crowd goes wild. 
They run down the aisle, hand in hand before eddie stops and looks at the bouquet in his hands. He and Richie share a wild grin before throwing it behind him and Mike and Bill both catch it at the same time.
Stan gives a best man speech at the dinner (choice of two meals, both grooms chose one. Eddie chose chicken nuggets and fries and Richie chose spaghetti and meatballs). 
He stands. “I’d like to say a few words.” He says, leaning on his bionic leg. His daughter Daisy is in his arm, she was born on May 28th, exactly a year after the 6 phone calls. She’s holding her sippy cup of apple juice out like her father is. She gets some awwwws from the crowd. 
“I’ve known Richie since he was six years old. He’s been my best friend for over 35 years. When we were 12, I was convinced that I’d watch this boy get older, but never grow up. […] the day he called me and told me he was getting married, that he wanted me to be his best man and wanted my help with the wedding, I cried. Because it was that day when I realized that my barely-functioning childish best friend had grown up. Into a barely function childish adult. I’ve known all my life things that are real, And what is beyond our control. I know time is beyond our control. I know the things that shape us, physically and mentally, are out of our control. I know that flight is real, that marriage and law is real. And a vend diagram of Real and Uncontrollable only has one thing between them. The love of Eddie and Richie. Uncontrollable, and totally, helplessly real. [to Richie and Eddie] I’m proud of you. And I love you both.”
Richie breaks down, collapsing into Stan’s arms and hugging him and crying so much.
When they have their first dance, Richie trips and falls onto Eddie, and the room laughs. Richie and Eddie kiss. 
Richie sings a song, and sings it to Eddie. It’s probably something like this or maybe this
And Eddie cries
When Ben finds them, and congratulates them, he’s smiling so much it hurts. “Much fancier than mine.” he says. He and Beverly eloped. They didn’t have a wedding. “I’m a bit jealous.” 
Beverly is crying. “I can’t believe it took you mother fuckers 30 god damn years. I hate you both. Hug me.” She gives them both a kiss on the cheek. 
“Should’ve known your wedding was gonna be the best.” Mike laughs at them. “Chicken nuggets, floral suits and rockin’ music. Only the finest.”
Bill sort of sits, in the back of the room. He came alone. Audra left him in the summer of last year. He’s not one for romance, anymore. 
“I’m proud of you two.” he says. “You guys are great together. Really.”
He doesn’t stutter once. 
Richie cries again in Stan’s shoulder. He’s so happy. Stan’s also crying. 
“You would’ve said something better at my wedding. I know it.” Stan says. “You would’ve brought the church to tears.” 
“You didn’t get married in a church.” Eddie frowns.
“We didn’t get married. We just put a ring on eachother and said fuck it.”
Richie, through his tears, looks at Stan. “You’ve been wearing a cockring for 20 years?” 
“You’ll be doing it too, I’m sure.” 
Richie and Eddie’s honeymoon is marking things off their bucketlist. They go visit Richie’s dad in Italy. They go see Frank Kaspbrak’s grave. They go see the northern lights. They go through all of Europe and some places in Asia. Richie takes him to the Golden Globes and every time Eddie is introduced Richie says “This is my husband, Eddie.” 
When they get back, they sit in Richie’s big, Beverly Hill’s house, and they sigh.
“Eds?”
“Yeah?”
“We’re married.”
“We’re an old married couple.” 
Richie gasps. “We are!”
They laugh and cuddle next to each other. 
“I love you.” “I love you too.”

The Heart's Invisible Furies [John Boyne]
started: March 21, 2021 finished: March 24, 2021 rating: 5/5
review:
its now been 2 weeks since i finished The Heart's Invisible Furies and tbh i still dont have the words to describe it.
first of all i've apparently wanted to read this book for at least 3 years. after i got it i found it on a random list of books in my notes of books i wanted that i made couple years ago. i have absolutely no idea where i heard about it the first time. i actually dont remember where i heard of it or why i put it on my list a couple months ago but evidently i did.
this was one of the (many) books that i intentionally didn't read the synopsis of and didn't want to know anything about it before reading. i knew bits going into it. i had the general info that it was about a boy born in Ireland who was adopted, it's set during The Troubles, and its gay enough to have the 'LGBT' tag on goodreads.
after a day of reading it my only comment i wrote down was: i think i cried 6 times reading the first 100ish pages.
which honestly sums up my entire experience reading the entire book.
the novel is organized so that each section is every seven years. there's a total of 11 sections so it covers 77 years all about Cyril Avery's life. the first section is about his mother dealing with being an unwed 16 year old pregnant woman in mid-1940s Ireland. and let me say: the actions of most of the 'adults' are absolutely horrific. the first chapter is Cyril's mother, Catherine, being kicked out of her village at Sunday Mass. her entire family and the rest of the village are against her and back the priest who tells her she has like an hour to leave the village and never come back.
when she gets on a bus to Dublin, she meets Seán who is also escaping his village to Dublin. they arrive and are greeted by Seán's 'friend' Jack who reluctantly agrees to let Catherine stay with them until she can support herself. its pretty obvious that Seán and Jack are a little more than friends but Catherine doesnt think anything of it until the end of the section. before the end tho, we meet the only valid adult / person of a previous generation, Mrs. Hennessy. i absolutely loved that she makes an appearance the the following section and gets name dropped throughout the rest of the novel. this first section is where we learn her general backstory and god fucking damn it i was appalled. at this point its less than 50 pages into the book and i was nearly full on sobbing. and the tears dont let up from there either! right after finding out what Mrs. Hennessy has gone through, Catherine returns back to the apartment she shares with Seán and Jack and once again there's adult and parent who is absolutely horrendous. this is finally when Catherine learns that the two boys are actually in a relationship because, who we later learn is Seán's father, who Seán was escaping from when he left his village, forces himself into the apartment. within the next few minutes, there is a filicide , someone left on the brink of death, and a birth.
this is literally all 50 pages into a nearly 600 page book. it sets the tone for the rest of it and gives a solid understanding of the mindset of Ireland in this time.
7 years later, we finally meet Cyril as as not just the concept that is causing issues for Catherine. we're introduced to the couple that adopted Cyril, who are odd to say the least. they are the type of parents that didn't really want a child because they were ready but instead as a show piece. the Avery's also constantly remind Cyril (and others) that he is 'not a real Avery'. hmm i wonder if this will have an impact on Cyril's future relationships?????
his relationship with Julian Woodbead is one of the most important to Cyril's life. i think its talked about later in the novel how their friendship is built on a lie. from the start Cyril is obsessed with Julian and Julian doesnt acknowledge it really. the perception of their friendship is so biased since we are viewing the world from Cyril's point of view and how he is effected. because of this perceptive, its so hard to believe that Julian didn't know that Cyril was in love with him. but i think Julian was such a product of the environment his was raised in and living by the acceptable ideas of the time. from an early age one of his defining traits is essentially being a womanizer. its hard to tell how much of him is just for show and how different him, and Cyril, would be free of a society with such strict exceptions and definitions of right and wrong. was Julian truly completely straight? or was he lying to everyone and himself to fit in with society?
Cyril deals with his repression of being gay in such a detrimental way the entire time he lives in Ireland. he constantly lies to everyone in his life and forces himself to live a lie. his inability to confide in anyone leads him to getting engaged to, sleeping with, and ultimately marrying Julian's sister, Alice.
oh my god the lead up to the marriage ceremony and the events after hurt so many people and i didn't know who's side i was on for them. Cyril ends up in a relationship with Alice and somehow engaged to her. he almost breaks it off with her but every time he cant say the words. its heartbreaking thinking about Cyril was just so fearful to tell the truth to people who loved him.
its finally on the wedding day that Cyril confesses to Julian that he doesnt love Alice in any romantic way because he's gay and is actually in love with Julian. Cyril wants to Julian to allow him to not go forward with the marriage but with Alice's past (she had a previous fiance that left her at the alter) Julian tells Cyril that he's going to marry his sister and be a perfect husband to her.
Cyril does it. partially. he marries Alice then flees the entire country. coming from Cyril's point of view, i was relived that he was free from lying to everyone. but on the other side -- he just left everyone hurt and unhappy in the wake of his actions. its so easy to see how Cyril feels forced into his decisions but understanding how those decisions affect the people around him make it hard to support Cyril.
7 years later we meet the most important man in Cyril's life, Bastiaan. after leaving Ireland, Cyril ends up in Amsterdam, where it is so much more acceptable to be gay holy shit. he meets and starts dating Bastiaan there. Bastiaan helps Cyril unlearn a lot of what he was forced to live by and accept who he is as a person.
he also meets Jack who opened an Irish pub in Amsterdam with the name of Seán's last name. when i realized it was Jack from before and Jack named his pub after Seán made me weep like a fucking baby.
i could list all the times i started crying but i would end up crying all over again and have to add more to the list.
anyway in Amsterdam Cyril and Bastiaan acquire a foster son, Ignac, who just like everyone else in this novel, has a tragic past. after some events (another murder, this time the dick head is the one killed instead of the one doing the killing) and the three of them end up in New York.
they are in America during the beginning of the AIDS crisis and holy shit. yeah more balling. thats the main takeaway.
in New York, Cyril volunteers to talk to AIDS patients who are dying but have no family visiting them. one of the patients is Julian. once again i turn into a fucking baby. Julian reveals to Cyril that he has a son back in Ireland from the one time he slept with Alice. im gonna cry if i think about Julian and Cyril talking anymore i stg. but uhh Julian makes Cyril promise that he'd be the one to call Alice when he died and once Julian does pass, Cyril has every intention on doing just that. but before he can, him and Bastiaan are jumped by a group of thugs who end up seriously injuring Cyril and killing Bastiaan.
7 years later, Cyril is back in Ireland with Ignac. this time he is in Ireland as an openly gay man and is attempting to build a relationship with his son.
there's so much more that happens that i can't even convey. but holy fuck was it so god damn fucking good.
finally when Cyril is in his 60s he figures out that he is the son of Mrs. Goggins, who has never really left the story. Cyril and Julian run in to her when they are 14 in boarding school, Cyril runs into her multiple times when he works almost with her, the morning of his wedding at a cafe, and when he returns he works in the same building that she does. so throughout his life his birth mother was right there but neither of them knew it.
after 7 years, they go together back to the village that Catherine was born, raised, and kicked out of. its finally here where we learn the identity of Cyril's birth father (Catherine's aunt's husband).
bro i gotta be done now. like there's much more that i want to talk about regarding The Heart's Invisible Furies but i just cant think of them rn.
tl;dr - ballin like a baby the whole way through. also society sucks.pls read its worth it

A lot.                                                                                                                        My thoughts: A really interesting, uniquely formated story. It has a lot of funny moments but it also has a lot of not so happy moments. Probably won’t make you sob but there are definitely moments that will make your heart clench.
Daddy,Daddy: http://archiveofourown.org/works/7580932/chapters/17248537 Word count: 1013                                                                                               Rating: General                                                                                                   Summary: Park Chanyeol gets a day off and spends it inside the house, playing with his son.                                                                                                        My thoughts: A cute and completely platonic fic about Chanyeol spending the day with his son Kyungsoo. Quite a unique fic and not one I think I’ve ever seen before but I enjoyed it greatly.
Too long since I’ve been a fool: http://archiveofourown.org/works/8208775    Word count: 18215                                                                                           Rating: PG13                                                                                                     Summary: Chanyeol feels something weird and funny in his stomach whenever he sees Kyungsoo with another guy. Chanyeol convinces himself that it’s nothing and dismisses the fact that he may be catching feelings for his flatmate.            My thoughts: Chanyeol is a real dummy in this fic and does some stupid stuff but it has a happy ending and only made me sob a little bit both times that I’ve read it so far.
58 bpm: http://archiveofourown.org/works/5311937?view_adult=true                Word count: 17946                                                                                             Rating: Explicit                                                                                          Summary: It was one stupid moment, right after they’d gotten back out on the road for their fall tour a few weeks ago. One stupid moment in a series of stupid moments that have been happening for years. Each time it’s over, they make the same promise—a one time thing, it can’t happen again, it won’t happen again. But they keep falling into each other like this.
And now—
“So… we’re having a kid."                                                                                    My thoughts: It’s quite an emotional fic, there’s a lot of different conflicts all happening at once but it does have a happy ending and it’s cute moments.

set ~7 months after 58 bpm.                                                                                  My thoughts: A really cute fic about Chansoo’s marriage and them taking care of their son.

Until now.              My thoughts: Not gonna lie I went into this expecting a happy and light hearted fic and instead had my heart ripped in half, stepped on and set on fire but holy shit was the ride worth it. I sobbed so fucking much during this fic but the writing is amazing and the story is really interesting.

Prequel to ‘and time yet for a hundred indecisions’. A domestic AU.                                                                                                    My thoughts: The fun part of the au though keep an eye because there were some nood backs to the original that had me almost crying again.

It’s really interesting how the author wrote them as animals so convincingly and the story is simple but fun.

He can’t go back. At the same time Kyungsoo can’t go forward.                                        My thoughts: Boy did this fic make me sob. Every single character in the fic is written amazingly, the plot of the story flows really well and the relationships between the characters are great. It’s a pretty slow burn fic but the build up of Chanyeol and Kyunsoo’s relationship is brilliant.
The good soldier: http://archiveofourown.org/works/3729244?view_adult=true    Word count: 19346                                                                                             Rating: Explicit                                                                                          Summary: The slide from ‘Lieutenant Do and Sergeant Park’ to ‘Kyungsoo and Chanyeol’ is a slow, spiralling course.
A post Korean War AU, where Kyungsoo was Chanyeol’s respected lieutenant during the war, but has fallen into the traps of PTSD when he returns to civilian life. When Chanyeol arrives unexpectedly at Lieutenant Do’s doorstep after a year of separation, the man he once knew is gone, only to be replaced by a lifeless shell. Not to mention that Kyungsoo is recovering from a failed arranged marriage, with a newborn son under his care. Chanyeol convinces himself that it is his duty as Kyungsoo’s former Sergeant to stay and help. Except that it may lead to something more.                                                                                      My thoughts: Another fic that got me really emotional. Another slow burn fic but agan the build up and development in their relationship is amazing. Also made me sob.

When Do Kyungsoo came along, he expected nothing, but instead Kyungsoo gave him everything.                                                             My thoughts: Oh boy if the last two fics made me sob this one had me wailing and that’s no exaggeration. I was crying on and off throughout the fic and I cried retty much non stop towards the end of the fic. Really well written, the plot is haunting and extremely gritty. It has a beautiful ending though and the characters in this are amazing.

Walk with me: https://archiveofourown.org/works/4812683                                Word count: 27821 Rating: Explicit                                                                                            Summary: Kyungsoo left the military’s extraction programme just months before dream sharing is legalised in South Korea. Two years later, Kyungsoo is a freelancer working exclusively with charities. One day, he meets Chanyeol in a dream. This happens over and over again.
Until it doesn’t.                                                                                                      My thoughts: Yet another fic that had me sobbing my eyes out. A really unique and well written story the plot is really interesting and engaging and emotional.
I’ll love you right: https://archiveofourown.org/works/4082851                          Word count: 14560                                                                                             Rating: Explicit                                                                                                  Summary: A rival gang, Kalvosa, has sent an extremely lethal psychopathic killer to assassinate Kyungsoo. But as the heir to one of the most prominent mafia groups in the country, Kyungsoo did not go through 22 years of painful training just to be murdered in his own bedroom. He’s going to make Kalvosa regret this so much by taking away one of their most valued assets. If only this asset is a little more cooperative, like if it can stop trying to kill Kyungsoo every five minutes, or actually talk to him for a change.                                                      My thoughts: A very interesitng story, quite violent so probably not for everyone. I’d probably read with caution.

Cause that is important.                                                                                                            My thoughts: A cute and fun fic in where Chanyeol is extremely clumsy and Kyunsoo is an idiot when it comes to his feelings about Chanyeol.

His results say otherwise.                                                                                                      My thoughts: Chanyeol is little fucking shit at the biginning of the fic but he gets better. End goal is chansoo but Chnayeol dates amny many many people in this fic. However the fic is a great journey of Chanyeol learning to accept and love himself.
War is a drug: http://archiveofourown.org/works/7305073                                  Word count: 10815    Rating: Explicit                                                                                                   Summary: After an unforeseen tragedy, Chanyeol and Kyungsoo’s relationship takes a sharp turn.

Not too dark but there are certain parts that could be distressing. A ‘happy’ ending depending on who ask, though personally I thought it wasa good ending.

Could be quite a distressing story so I definitely recommend you proceed with caution and read the tags and warnings. Apart from that it’s a really well written story that I love and the ending make me choke.
