link click's new episode leaving us with more questions than answers as usual. 1) lu guang and qian jin kept looking at the clock for some reason which seems to indicate lu guang knows something would happen anytime. he either left by his own will or was forced by someone else. he also seems like he disappeared in thin air so, what's up with that? 2) cxs losing connection and transferring bodies temporarily before being forced out of the picture has to have an explanation. could there have been another ability user interfering with his ability? i'm not sure if the same happened during emma's fall or not because he also came back immediately and they didn't show him touch hands. the common factor between these two situations is red eyes, whatever that means 3) we are given the impression both cxs and the woman police officer leave the police station voluntarily with li tianxi at the end. were they controlled/manipulated? is this li tianxi's power? and, if not, what is "her" plan and why is cxs so ready to help? 4) qian jin put together an entire group of people that seem ready to attack someone. who is the person he apparently wants to get rid of or get? 5) who is the mysterious kid and is he working with li tianchen? 6) i still think li tianchen is the one able to control bodies and taking over his sister, it would make sense why li tianxi isn't mute anymore and even cxs was suspicious it wasn't her. but then, again, what does he want with cxs? is this part of qian jin's plan or personal reasonings? 7) and, finally, how does qian jin tie into all of this. this family's case seems to be the one that made him leave the police. i wonder what happened that made him turn sides and who is he trying to actually get to. is he really just a bad guy? each episode is more intriguing than the last!!!!

Amatonormativity has destroyed so many people's understanding and acceptance of themselves, and it's heartbreaking.
Yes, it is normal to be in your 20s, 30s, or older and not have lost your virginity, had a first kiss, or a partner. It is normal to say that you aren't ready for those things, too! It is normal if your life doesn't follow the "college graduate -> engagement -> buying a home -> 2.5 kids and a dog" trajectory that so many people have idealized.
So many people associate maturity with losing your virginity, or having a first kiss, or a serious relationship, and I think that's a dangerous association. Maturity isn't gained through those things, and you don't have to have those experiences to be considered "mature" or "grown." It is not a bad thing to go at your pace. Nobody else can live your life but you. If you end up having those experiences, that's great! But it should be done because you want to experience them, not because you feel "broken" and "immature" without them.

cockatrice (part 2)
early access + nsfw on patreon
--
werewolf lore drop ahead!!
although werewolves are classified as a shifter-type monster (same as Horangi or the cockatrice) they're actually unique in a hidden way. Horangi is a hybrid whose lineology originates from the first pureblood haetaes, which had zero human in them. In comparison, werewolves originated AS a human-wolf monster, which results in an interesting relationship between the human and shifted 'full-wolf' form.
While Horangi is the same in his human and haetae form, Soap juggles two souls in one body - one belonging to human side, and the other to his wolf. They are both still implicitly him - the souls run parallel with one another throughout his life - but being a werewolf is very much like maintaining a life-long partnership. Soap and his wolf are a great example of a success story, but some werewolves have difficult relationships with their wolf, resulting in only transforming during full moons when they have to.
In some ways, Soap is perfect in the military's eyes as he has a strong connection with his wolf, and happens to come from a long line of larger-than-average specimens (even though he doesn't care too much about his genealogy, preferring to call himself a mongrel breed). In other ways, he's also a nightmare, because his wolf exemplifies the worst in his rebellious streak, featuring recklessness, fickleness towards authority and an extremely low tolerance for boredom.

I can’t explain what blue eye samurai makes me feel…….its a typical revenge story, a man sets out on his hero’s journey to kill the four men who have wronged him. A lone ronin, wide brimmed hat and sword in hand, roaming Edo Japan on his vendetta. But he’s not a man. He’s a woman. And how has he been wronged? What’s she getting revenge on?
On the fact that she exists. She wants revenge on the four white men that could possibly have conceived her. Who got her Japanese mother pregnant with a blue-eyed child. And not just any blue-eyed child, but a girl child. How is she possibly supposed to live in the world like that? For the wrong of being conceived, for the wrong of being born, for the wrong of being birthed into a world that will never love or accept her, she will kill her father.
I don’t know what level of convoluted self hate that is. Is she a child of rape? Or a child of a whore? Halfway through I realise what she told herself at the start couldn’t possibly be true - it’s not really for her mother. Her mother wasn’t the root of her vendetta, she wasn’t really doing it for her. When she leaves that farm and leaves the chance to live a simple, legitimate life as a woman, she goes right back to hunting down the men. Those men personally wronged her.
And then there’s so much to be discussed surrounding the way she grew up, because as a boy child and a man she can afford so much more than life has dealt her. Her swordfather who took her in out of the love and care in his heart had no shame in teaching a mixed man his art. The face of a ‘demon’ is fine. But not the identity of a woman. Shh. Don’t say it. Don’t confess. He knows and doesn’t want to hear it.
And because she’s lived that way her entire life for safety and security, she’s so completely alienated from being a woman, perhaps she really is he. But not really by choice. Or is it? The thing she does best is the art of killing, the art of men. Gender is a prison and gender is a performance and she has to choose which to perform. The times cannot reconcile hatred and violence with a woman. So she lives as a man.
So she can get revenge on her father, for revenge on herself.

"Tell them Ellie is the little girl... that BROKE YOUR FUCKING FINGER"
"WHAT TOWNNNN"
I just know that those two lines felt so good to deliver. I just know that Bella and Pedro got those yells from deep in their chests.
