Doing my lazy little Christine cosplay at an anime convention today.
I got stopped and asked for a picture.
She asked me if I've found the Phantom yet. I told her I'm still searching, but he's here inside my mind.
It was a good day.

Fandom conversations in the wild, #167
a.k.a., He's here, he's there, he's every-fucking-where, what's his name, the angry guy
Me, while getting lab work done today: ooh, that is a really cute figurine collection! who are those lil guys?
Phlebotomist #1, examining my veins: oh, those are a band that our other coworker is really into.
Phlebotomist #2, watching and learning: yeah, she's um, like, REALLY into them. *laughs a little like she is slightly uneasy with her coworker's level of enthusiasm* but you might not have heard of them.
Me, counting 7 figurines: I might have.
Phlebotomist #2: they're called BTS.
Me: *quietly boggling at the idea that I wouldn't have at least heard of them* yeah! I know them.
Phlebotomist #2: oh! well, cool. are you, um, into any bands or anything?
Me: I used to be. but right now I mostly just get obsessed about TV.
Phlebotomist #1: ooh. what TV are you most into right now?
Me: I usually go more for fantasy or sci-fi, but right now I'm super into Ted Lasso.
Phlebotomist #2: oh yeah? I've heard good th--
Phlebotomist #1: OH MY GOD, HOW CAN YOU NOT LOVE TED, THOUGH?! he's just, like, so upbeat and cheerful, but then it's a facade, partly, but then -- just oh my god he's so great!!
Me: YES
Phlebotomist #1: okay okay okay okay, but my absolute favorite? the one I really love? is... um... who's the angry one?
Me: ROY --
Me and Phlebotomist #1, in unison: ROY KENT!! YES!!! He's here, he's there -- *both dissolving into giggles*
Phlebotomist #2: *blinking and realizing we might be, like, REALLY into this character*

This sounds fucked up actually.
The measure of success is getting divorced at least 5 times but more is preferable if you are an ascended master or alien or whatever.
New dating app just dropped: Shattered Hearts. I was tortured by a Luciferian cult, too. DM me! 🥰
Passive aggressive message to a specific person is blatant.

my god I have no idea how I never connected this before but of course Nastya was involved in the coup! For both characterization reasons and just. Mechs-typical horrible decisions reasons. That insight brings her backstory far more in line with the others we know.
So that makes the story (as I see it) that she’s worried about the political situation, and feels like no one else is doing anything about it (see the updated lines about her parents). She’s conflicted about what’s right, and her tutor manipulating her is not helping. Sometime after she asks her father to spare the protestors (or maybe before? was that not just out of desperation or compassion but because she was already working with the rebels???), she makes a plan with her tutor to help the rebels peacefully storm the palace. Her tutor promises they’ll leave together into the glorious future or whatever. The real plan, of course, is the stuff that ends up actually happening. Nastya’s tutor reveals that the plan was always to kill her (the Lashings transcript brings up a bit on the website about the tutor “explaining that the old regime must die, there can be none left alive,” which clarifies the reasoning). They shoot her, Yenin stumbles upon her before she dies, giving her the chance to shoot him. Carmilla, disguised among Yenin’s people, stays behind as the rest rush him away, and... kind of explains her offer? The updated subtitles and transcript show her being much more informative than previously thought, even if I’m still not certain the situation qualifies as informed medical consent.

I just gave a speech to my doctor because he didn't want to put autism on my records, in case it will "mark me for life"
sir, my pal, my buddy
I'm already marked, I've been marked my whole life, I've spent years behaving like I wasn't, you all are going to know HELL about how marked I am

i feel like a lot of the 'i hate kids' crowd would be more tolerant if they understood that due to a kid's limited experience of the world that 4 hour flight might just be the longest they've ever had to sit still for or that trapped finger might literally be the most pain they've ever felt in their short life or they might not have ever seen a person with pink hair ever so of course they want to touch it or nobody's told them yet that they can't run around the museum and they only just learned cheetahs are the fastest animals so of course they want to put that to the test. how were they supposed to know etc etc.

a bottom-tier autistic experience is being told throughout your entire childhood that you are just an overthinker when it comes to social situations and later finding out that your friends did, in fact, hate being around you and tried to communicate that through weird little hints
