hi there! During some weeks i've really become a fan of your drarry posts(sometimes daily;))..they're so detailed and convince one in a way that they can't say "nah, you're delusional..drarry doesn't exist!(platonic or romantic)"..and tbh i agree with 98% of your opinions( 2% is in little details lol)

I have some things to say:

-in room of requirement scene harry asks draco whose wand is this in his hand and draco replied his mother's [i love how he answers with honesty here bc mostly he doesn't answer straightforward..it's obvious to me how much he changed and how exhausted he is:(] then harry laughed, admitting that situation is not funny at all(as far as i remember)...do u think why harry laughed?the only reason in my mind is he missed bickering with draco hahaaaa:)))

-in shrieking shack voldemort told lucius that perhaps draco's decided to befriend harry(i love voldy for this^^)...do you think he told it to terrify lucius or despite draco's fear, he actually saw any sign of draco being inclined to harry and his side and seeing that courage in him to change his side?

-In your last meta you told "I think he definitely doesn't want to admit that there's something in Draco that he's drawn to." This is also about harry describing draco's appearance..there are some ppl that are actually gorgeous( either according to other ppl or harry) like tom riddle, cedric, cho ginny etc & there are some that look ugly(harry makes it quite clear lolll)..and some average face which harry does not bother to describe much more...as far as we're told draco is some sort of average(ofc you can think of him as handsome like i think but he's not that type of handsome that everyone agrees on like cedric..that's what i think)but harry tells good things about his appearance in a very weird way...it looks like he knows he looks good but he doesn't want to confess that directly...

Thanks for reading, keep going!💙

Thank you for this lovely ask! It truly made me smile so much to read your kind words. I'm so glad you've been enjoying my posts! And for the record I never mind if people disagree with me (as long as it's polite; and if it's not, it's the rudeness I mind not the disagreement). Discussion and respect for different opinions is what fandom is all about.

I think you raise some really fascinating points here!

1) In the Room of Requirement scene I think Harry's bitter laughter also kind of parallels Draco laughing humorlessly when they run into each other in book 6 when Harry's on his way to the Quidditch match. I think partly Harry's also just relieving tension and laughing at the absurdity of the whole situation and how they always come back to each other. And yeah I also love how Draco responds honestly to Harry.

Also very notable that when Harry asks why the three of them aren't with Voldemort, Crabbe and not Draco is the one who says that they're going to be rewarded and that they hung back to capture Harry. Draco, who has no problem answering Harry's previous question (about his wand) or his next question (about how they got into the Room) is notably silent here. (I wrote more about his motivations in this scene here btw).

2) This is such an amazing point about the shrieking shack scene that I never thought about. But wow. You're right. Great catch! This bit is actually so interesting. So Voldemort says:

"If your son is dead, Lucius, it is not my fault. He did not come and join me, like the rest of the Slytherins. Perhaps he has decided to befriend Harry Potter?"

This is such a strange and specific thing to say. Sure it could be him just messing with Lucius. But he could've done that in so many other ways. He could've just threatened to kill Draco. Or questioned his loyalty more generally. Voldemort doesn't even say something like "perhaps he has deserted me and fled" or speculate that Draco has betrayed him and joined the flighting against him. He suggests that Draco has "befriended" Harry specifically.

Also in this scene Voldemort is thinking about other things and not really paying attention to Lucius or particularly trying to torment him. Lucius is the one who brings up Draco and this is Voldemort's response to the topic.

We know Voldemort can read minds. Despite Draco's best efforts (which given that he's alive despite saving Harry in the Manor, must have been pretty good) to shield his thoughts something must have leaked through, something that gave Voldemort pause. When Lucius says that Draco would never befriend Harry, Voldemort just gives him a noncommittal response and says: "You must hope not." Which sounds to me like he isn't buying it. And indeed, where does it turn out that Draco is (clearly without orders or permission from Voldemort)? With Harry. And I've already discussed in my other meta why I don't think he was planning on killing Harry or handing him over, despite what Crabbe and Goyle thought.

Voldemort's comments are especially interesting given that right after the Room of Requirement scene Draco is attacked by another Death Eater who also seems to think he's not on their side, despite the fact that Draco's name is well known and he has a Dark Mark. So...what happened to make him think Draco wasn't on their side?

3) Yeah I absolutely think Harry thinks Draco is good looking but tries to ignore it. I think they are both exactly each other's type.

Hi! Love your fics so much thanks for writing and feeding us!!!

Do you have advice for writing GO fics?

(no pressure to answer)

Thanks anon! I'm happy you like my fics 💜

As for advice... Wow! Do you mean any advice at all, in general? I'm trying to think of things that would be specific to the Good Omens fandom and not just to all fanfic, but I'm having a hard time thinking of something.

So how about just some things I do when I'm writing a GO fic?

Rewatch the source material (even if it's just 5 minutes every few chapters or so, to remind myself of how the characters sound)

Vocalize dialogue to make sure it flows OK (and yes sometimes I do the accents, though not very well, heh). I try to visualize the characters saying it while vocalizing. The looks on their faces, their mannerisms. (I uh, don't do this for the sex scenes though... The vocalizing part anyway)

Use my own personal religious trauma as a jumping off point to really get into the characters' heads (haha) (*cries in ex-catholic*)

Also, if you haven't already, read the original novel! (Please do this even if you don't write fic, you will get SO much more out of the show by reading the book. Plus, you know. The book is fucking brilliant.)

Maybe my followers have some more advice too?

did you see that post about how the power of zeus has a lot of unexplored potential like shapeshifting?

it got me thinking… gender fluid billy

i personally really like the idea of cap having memories from past champions lives and surely those champions must have had a very large variety of genders

so he could potentially just feel really comfortable with any gender

i want to see him just casually switch genders while with the league because it feels write for him at the time and for them to just be super confused and for billy to not explain anything if even one of them acts like assholes

anyways just a little thing i like the potential of

I have not seen that post but it makes perfect sense! Where there's Zeus, there's bound to be unhinged chaos waiting to happen.

Genderfluid Billy is absolutely darling and dear to me! I often HC him as trans, but I love and accept every version of him that exists in the multiverse and to everyone else! I'm genderfluid myself, so that's very nice to have a hero who's like me :D

As for The Captain being able to recall his past lives and having been different genders, and having former identities in the past is absolutely incredible! It's great to explore the storytelling potential of the Champion of Magic and their former lives, who they were, have been, and can be.

I headcanon something similar, where cap has indeed lived through various past lives as different people throughout his entire existence, and in one of them he had a child who later becomes immortal, spending centuries apart from them and then finding them again...only to see that tiny Billy Batson is definitely not their parent from long ago, and that things are now a complicated family tree. I'm an avid believer in giving Billy Batson more found family members and combining multiple ideas into one, haha.

Cap really would feel comfortable with any gender, and with magic, could totally become anything he wanted, whenever he wanted. Magic is free and surgery is not, so Billy would be down to use magic to explore his gender identity ✨️

CM: Remember Kids, the American Healthcare system is a garbage fire, use magic instead

I could 1000% see Captain Marvel being bored in an extended JL meeting in the watchtower, yawning, then just casually switching over to another gender in the blink of an eye. Doesn't even give it a second thought. But everyone else is suddenly wide awake and floored by this sudden magic use.

Superman was going to say something, but remembered he got transformed into the opposite gender once, and decided to just let cap be. He remembered it being kinda nice.

Plastic man joins in and morphs into a hotter version of himself, seemingly trying to one up cap. It's not a competition. But he's still found a way to lose.

Everyone eventually gets distracted and the meeting ends up going longer than intended. Genderfluid for the win 🏆

Gosh this ended up being so much fun! I wrote more than I thought I would, haha

#Billy batson #dc captain marvel #Shazam #gender fluid #Gender is a liquid #Gender be flowin yo #This was such a lovely ask #Tysm #justice league #superman #Plastic man #Dc comics #In Justice League Action superman got turned into a woman with pink kryptonite once #Send more asks my way anytime #I always look forward to seeing them in my inbox!#If there are spelling errors I'm sorry

if you were to ask the family what secrets tim had, the answers would range from "not straight" (steph) to "secretly a vampire and that's why grandfather is obsessed with him" (damian). a secret husband was never on the list. (combat medic!bear x rr!tim. classic shot in the throat fic, now with the added bonus of everyone finding out that tim has a secret husband.)

It's been a long time since Tim Drake really knew Bernard Dowd. One hospital visit later, Tim realizes just how much catching up he has to do. (picks up right at the end of the saccrifice. uhh i just wanted tim to be jealous that other people knew bear better than he did.)

Vigilantism is not exactly conducive to a healthy relationship. Bernard and Tim pay the price. (summertime sadness is not the name of the fic. a lyric from that song is the name of the fic. it's just ostentatiously long. anyway BREAKUP FIC BREAKUP FIC BREAKUP FIC! yes they're breaking up, no they dont want to, yes it's happening anyway)

when you think of love do you think of pain? (bear and tim go to children's charity gala together -> bear gets kidnapped with other children -> tim finds him a week later -> ooh my boyfriend has some serious mental illnesses about the cult -> ooh, we should've talked about this before)

tim says "i'll die for you", way too often. one bruised red robin bleeding on their wooden floors later, bernard has had enough. (that title is still a work in progress but according to g.trans, it means i want to live. but newayz, i just wanted to play with the idea of someone willing to die for you and what that would mean for bear, who's already had a loved one die on him. also the superhero ideal of dying for someone bc that means that someone loved you enough to take your place vs. the civilian ideal of growing old together, fight!)

#DISCLAIMER: these fics are not coming out anytime soon. i'm just hoping that i write more than 3 paragraphs #but if you have ?s about the fics or you wanna hear more #please send an ask!!#i'd love to scream about this!!#anyway saki was right #titles in all caps are nice!#i do like the way they look in lapslock on ao3 tho...#but on gdocs they look great!!!#dc #bernard dowd #tim drake #timber #timbern #there are mor timbern fics #but i should finish these 5 at least before starting other ones

3, 7, and 12, mista and fugo :3

TONY UNSHADOWBANNED PARTY I know this was from a month ago but I'm gonna answer it anyhow lmfao

(For this ask game)

3. Least favorite canon thing about this character?

For Mista, the Trish cleavage scene. You know the one. I don't think I have to explain this much. Boy Why Did You Do That. The only good thing to come out of that scene was jaunty jigglesacks + overeager horndog insane psychic damage combo of lines in the dub.

I could take this a lot of ways for Fugo tbh. Because there's a lot of things that drive me insane about him as a person, but looking at him as a character, I LOVE that he's rash and hurts his friends and his defining character moment is him making a selfish, cowardly decision. I guess I'd say his misogyny in Purple Haze Feedback? I'm admittedly a believer that, yes, he would fucking say that, but it sucks that he would. At least he gets better by the end lol. Fugo voice I'm sorry women Sheila E is me

7. What's something the fandom does when it comes to this character that you like?

I love that Mista has been designated Beautiful Brown-Eyed Bisexual Man by literally the entire fandom. Bi Mista brings us all together. And I do like the idea that his queerness is something he discovered much more slowly, and as a direct result of the gang. Something about that really ties in with the idea of the Bucci Gang as less of a realistic gang, more akin to a drag house or similar queer pseudo-family. Credit to that concept to Fox figcookie01 btw this is one of my favorite Vento Aureo analyses ever and it really informs how I conceptualize the Bucci Gang. Anyhow.

I also really like when people actually take care to explore his character and make him a very distinct, smarter-than-he-looks, older brother-type figure. It's really interesting when people explore his spirituality, too, whatever religion that may be, because that's a pretty important part of him. AND also OCD Mista truthers who know when to treat his superstitions and compulsions with some weight I love you forever. I think he's a character that gets watered down in fanworks a lot, but when his characterization's good, it's really good. There's plenty of artists and writers that have really blown me away with their Mista (and I say this as someone who's picky about characterization lol)

With Fugo, first of all. The PHF scars. Another thing that Mandela Effected the PHF fandom, but it's so so important to me. I love you physical, tangible, blatantly visible proof that Fugo has grown as a person since the day he abandoned the gang. Awesome. I also like that people mix and match his manga/anime colors, and every artist kinda draws him in a different way.

My favorite thing is probably the Fugo-Abbacchio stepkid and stepparent/siblings/Big Goth and Baby Emo Who Secretly Looks Up To Them dynamic. It’s awesome when it’s cartoonishly antagonistic and it’s awesome when it’s actually very sweet and heartfelt. Out of all the Bucci Gang dynamic interpretations the fandom’s produced, theirs is one of my favorites <3

12. What's a headcanon you have for this character?

SO MANY FOR BOTH OF THEM LOL. But I’ll try to list some I don’t talk about as much.

Besides The Carpenters, Mista’s a big fan of folk, acoustic singer-songwriter pop, and soft classic R&B/gospel. Artists with really strong voices tend to catch his attention. The Mamas and the Papas, Sam Cooke, Marvin Gaye, Simon and Garfunkel, The Seekers, and Gordon Lightfoot are some of his favorites. He’s also just a big sucker for love songs in general, and the hopeless romantic in him loves old girl groups like The Ronettes and The Shirelles. He’s also very much Schrödinger’s Guy to me. Cis? Trans? Who knows. Depends on what the situation calls for (though more often trans to me as of late). He’s just Some Dude.

Fugo’s a surprisingly good singer, but he’ll rarely do it if he knows other people are listening. A lot of times, he’ll sing in the shower, or when he’s alone in the car. As he gets older, he gets less self-conscious about it, and he’ll sing around the house when he’s with Giorno, or do duets with Mista for fun. There are also very much timelines in the Vento Aureo Multiverse in my brain where Fugo’s transfem. This also tends to coincide with transfem Abbacchio timelines, so there’s another layer added to Fugo looking up to Abbacchio, and I think Giorno (always transmasc to me) is really instrumental in helping her work through things and take pride in her transness. Maybe a little bit of a self-indulgent fluffy comfort hc that helps me work though my own genderisms lol

#ohh i missed my guys <- thinks about them every day #i need to talk about mista fugos more. blog policy everyone can send me mista fugos asks anytime btw.#jjba #jjba headcanons #pannacotta fugo #guido mista

How do you feel about the relationship between scorpio x taurus?

i LOVE scorpio x taurus connections! i think scorpio and taurus placements (namely taurus sun x scorpio sun, taurus rising x scorpio rising, taurus sun x scorpio venus / scorpio sun x taurus venus) flow so beautifully together (i would be more cautious towards taurus mercury x scorpio mercury or scorpio mars x taurus mars; their harsh traits may clash too much here). they're opposite signs, which to me means they're two sides of the same coin, or two pieces in the same puzzle.

here's why they work:

VALUES | scorpio and taurus energy, especially in sun/venus, hold the same core values in their connections. number one thing to the both of them is unwavering loyalty and honesty. these signs have major trust issues (we'll touch more on this in the negatives section to follow), but because they're both such upfront authentic individuals, they feel at ease around each other - they can clearly see the loyalty and supportive nature one another carries, allowing them to finally feel their hearts are safe with another person.

INTENSITY | i think we all hear a lot about scorpio intensity in romance - and it's true. but a lot of people don't mention that taureans are about that same level of intensity when it comes to relationships. these two signs are both all-in, all or nothing type of individuals. they're protective, they're committed. when they know, they know. when scorpio and taurus get together for the first time, i think they experience a feeling of mutual love, intensity, and safety that they could never experience with another placement. the depth to these signs love is nearly unmatchable.

HOMEBODIES + SIMILAR ENERGY | taurus and scorpio are generally homebodies; and they generally just do not like people lol. they do well with other individuals who prefer to stay at home doing puzzles or playing videos games rather than going to a club or a party. this is where they just fit together; they meet and realize they have very similar ideas of comfort and relaxation. they also have very similar energy levels (scorpio's being a bit higher), they're not going to be exhausted by the other person having a much higher social drive, for example. they tend to run on the same wavelength majority of the time.

CALM TO THEIR STORM | these two have a beautiful natural balance. scorpio tends to overthink far too much, stress too much, worry too much, etc. taurus tends to be slower-paced, thoughtful - they bring so much calm to scorpio's racing mind. they're able to say just the right things that bring scorpio a newfound sense of relief; and reliable, logical situations to their stresses (which is what scorpio prefers over comfort, generally). on the other hand, scorpio brings a more fire-starting energy towards taurus. sometimes, taurus can be passive and slow, dodge opportunities out of fear and anxiety around change. scorpio is their biggest fan, who not only encourages them to take necessary risks, but provides them with a feeling of comfort and security while doing so. on top of this, scorpio goes out of their way to help taurus realize their potential and think beyond their typical box/scope of comfort; helping them plan along the way.

here's why they don't work (usually undeveloped):

TRUST ISSUES | when undeveloped, taurus and scorpio (especially scorpio) are very untrusting, they're extremely calculated and suspicious individuals who do not open up easily. they may never reach a fully open relationship due to their owns intense fears of vulnerability and rejection. their untrusting nature may make them constantly accuse one another - and since both scorpio and taurus' top pet peeve is being falsely accused - this never ends well.

STUBBORN | plain and simple, we have two fixed signs. these signs are hard-headed, they always think they're right, and they're slow to admit when they're not (if they ever do). unless these two have mastered assertive, non-accusatory communication, they can be in for a lot of intense disagreement. if they have any difference in their wants, needs, values - it's going to be really hard for these two to compromise and make sacrifices, probably two of the worst signs to get to meet in the middle - they both have a "my way or the highway" mindset.

JEALOUSY | these signs are protective - they're also jealous. jealousy is not inherently bad (in my opinion), but undeveloped? that's when jealousy is toxic, controlling, intrusive and unhealthy. scorpio and taurus have extremely bad jealous habits and behaviors when they aren't developed. they may try to restrict one another's freedoms, become passive-aggressive, accusatory, etc if they don't control this jealousy. the mutual jealousy can also easily turn into an unhealthy relationship in which they make minimal contact with others outside of their relationship (aka no friends but one another, by choice).

SPEED | this is minor, and not hugely relationship-crumbling, but worth mentioning. scorpio is water - although fixed, scorpio is free-flowing like a river. scorpio cannot be controlled and scorpio likes to move fast. taurus is fixed earth. taurus does not move, does not change. if taurus changes, it takes a season - or two. taurus may take too long to make moves, decisions, etc. taurus may even TALK too slowly, to the point where scorpio gets frustrated (more common w/ mercury). this will be worsened by a scorpio with a lot of sagittarius placements, or any mutable placements in general. a scorpio with libra placements will be less bothered by this. on the other hand, taurus may find scorpio gets too serious too quickly/becomes overbearing - and it can really freak them out when they're rushed into something they aren't ready for.

CONTROL | continuation of my last point: taurus and scorpio both like to be in control. for taurus, it's more than they are unchanging, and like securing their environment. if scorpio is doing things that they see as a threat to security, they will try to reign scorpio in - which will cause distance and distaste from scorpio. on the other hand, scorpios can also be extremely controlling; and taureans hate being told what to do - so you can see the potential for things to get messy fast.

[ apologies for any typos, brain fog day for me ]

Firstly, when you get this, you have to answer with 5 things you like about yourself, publicly. Then, send this ask to 10 of your favorite followers (non-negotiable, positivity is cool)

@lyloneliness you send the first ask but also @mavr4xx @vinylbiohazard @ghostsinacoat @yumaisbored you also asked this too and omg i love u all but also, why do you do this to me 😭😭😭 i was already struggling a lot to think of 5 things with the first ask (and i still haven't even gotten to the tag game of this), and now I have to think of TWENTY-FIVE?!? ˚‧º·(˚ ˃̣̣̥⌓˂̣̣̥ )‧º·˚ (plus 5 more if I end up finding the tag game again plus the ability to think of 5 more...)

Anyways, thank you so much for the asks (´,,•ω•,,)♡ ଘ(੭ˊᵕˋ)੭* ੈ✩‧₊♡ (even if they are the hardest asks I have done in my life 💀) (it was interesting and fun tho 🌟) you are all awesome 💖🌟💞 now here we go:

(25 things here in the same post bc…not sure I just started doing it after @ all of u and I am doing this draft in my phone and separating this in the other asks i still have to look for is too much work) (apologies for the length, the further i got, the longer some of the answers became😅)

1 - My hair (used to be really thick and my mom used to make this amazing hairstyles almost every day when I was a kid—there was one that was a huge rose made of braids or smth, the hairpins were awful and it took so long but it was so pretty, I think my mom even made it for the wedding of one of her friends, anyways I lost maybe more than half of my hair when I was like 15, stress probably, and then I decided to cut it even below the shoulder—first time in my life it was so short—bc I was so mad with it but also bc I had zero energy to even try to take care of it by that point. Grown back until like my mid-back—used to have it like waist length before—by now and now I got maybe a little more than half of the hair that I used to have at 13 which is a lot better than it was at 15 and hopefully it gets back to what I used to have in a couple of years more, but for now it's enough to start playing with it and doing braids)

2 - Open-mindedness

3 - Creativity

4 - Patience

5 - That I'm an older sister

6 - Uf, how do I explain this one—like, empathy? kindness? feeling things deeply? putting yourself in the other person's shoes and being considerate of that? being too sentimental? which can be really annoying too but I wouldn't trade it so...

7 - That I can talk really fast

8 - Being expressive

9 - Always thinking things through

10 - Confident in my likes? (okay, so this one feels complicated, but for example, when I was a little kid, 6 or 7 years old probably, I loved superheroes, but my classmates in my all-girls school were like, that's for boys 😒, and I felt horrible bc that was just another thing in that i didnt fit in with everyone else and i always wanted to fit in, but somehow—which looking back feels weird bc who even knew i could be surprisingly confident in some aspects—was that i never thought i was in the wrong for liking superheroes? Like, yeah, I always wanted to fit in and I felt bad that I didn't, but even with all the social insecurity I was constantly plagued with, I never felt like I was in the wrong for being myself or that I should change myself or pretend to like stuff I didn't just to fit in (that strategy didn't even cross my mind until I was…can't be sure, it was somewhere in the last few years in this country, it was either a documentary, fiction, or the group therapy, but the idea of actual people in real life doing smth they didn't agree and had no purpose except to fit in was like: 🤯!?!!?!?!) (I didn't handle it that well either to be fair, if I wasn't with my friends i just decide to hide during recess and/or to not speak at all with anyone, until I changed schools) (I liked the 2nd school better). I assume that in my head I was like: "shame that I'm not like all of you but what can you do, I'm me ╮(╥﹏╥)╭ "

11 - I'm usually also all or nothing with almost all things? Like, for example, math. I don't like math, it has always been the class I struggled with the most and all my math teachers in Peru were really strict and thank goodness that my dad loves math and really good at it or I would have been lost without someone to explain it to me. But last week, my parents got an email from my math teacher who was telling them how proud she was of me and how I always strove to understand everything and there was some implication that I did it bc I liked what I was learning, which like, I mean, I like geometry a lot more than algebra bc it's simpler, and I don't exactly hate it, but I certainly wouldn't do it for pleasure. At all. And yeah, I ask her about everything I don't understand (she insisted to the whole class to please ask her anything if we needed help, so i had permission; if she wasn't available tho, I just would have asked my dad or a friend who is good at math to explain it to me) and ask her to show me exactly what I did wrong and what would be the correct answer but all of that is bc well, if I'm going to do well in the class, I need to understand what I did wrong in order to fix it, and like, math classes always build on each other, so if I don't smth I will later have problems with it, and also like, I'm already stuck with the class whether I like it or not, if I'm going to do smth, I'm going to do it well. Which is smth my mom has complained a lot of times, especially during last school year when I had a lot of late assignments bc I was too anxious about doing any of them bc I was afraid of doing it wrong or bc I didn't have the energy to think clearly so I wouldn't be able to do my best so like yeah…I ended up not doing the assignments at all (this is the part that I hate about this all or nothing thing with me, but let's focus on the positive side right now). Or with projects, I once stayed awake until like 5 am like several nights straight to do a project for economics class which like…I decided to make my own illustrations for each slide of the ppt to illustrate the information on top of doing the reading and answering the questions stuff…and I was already in a hurry with it bc I didn't know the school put assigned summer readings in the school's website (it was my first year in this country and nobody had said anything about it the year prior, plus it was quarantine time) and the teacher gave me a few extra days bc I still needed to hurry up in reading the book so yeah, I should have done smth more simple and fast to just submit it and get a grade but it wouldn't have been doing my best, not even near my best and I was already compromising on some stuff to not take too long since there wasn't too much time for my initial ideas so…yep. The teacher loved my project tho (and gave me a 100 even tho it was one day late) and asked if she could use it for her class of next year soooo…totally worth it. But yeah, i was sort of confused that Geometry teacher thought to send an email like that when I have only been trying to understand the concepts I am assigned to learn?

Thinking, thinking, thinking….you know what, I want to put my height in here just annoy my sister (she would be all dramatic annoying fake pitying dramatic gasp about it and would drag the younger ones to her side of the argument) but she wouldn't even see it plus I don't actually care about heights (I just care that she's annoying about it almost daily) so that would also be a lie so another thing….you know what, i already got 11 in one morning, coming back to this later

12 - Okay, so I hate all my health problems, absolutely hate them, so annoying and expensive and restricting and confusing BUT—how do I word this…it has 2 parts…umm…okay, so I'm really familiar with the clinic in Peru I used to go all the time and, okay I hated having to go to the clinic so many times, especially towards the end, but I liked being familiar with it? Like, the people, the sense of a community, the building, the routine. It was probably more familiar than my schools since I changed schools a few times while the clinic was there ALWAYS (until we moved countries and I never expected to miss the fucking clinic but it happened which wtf but also makes sense which also omg mila (ノ◇≦。) but also, the medical system was definitely easier and less expensive than whatever the fuck they have going on here, plus not having all our usual doctors, so there is also a practical reason aside from me unreasonably missing everything that was familiar including things I didn't even like much). That's the first part. Second part is that it has brought…lessons ig. Like, idk, it's been a huge formative part of my life. About health and food and family stuff and experiences. Like, I hate having the health problems (they are A LOT better now than when I was younger as long I do some things to keep it that way, but yeah, really grateful for that) but also, I don't really know who I would be without those experiences? Changed the whole family too so like…idk, it's weird but felt worth mentioning.

13 - That I'm really curious and like learning.

14 - Sense of style

15 - Loyalty—to people (like, even swallowed down all my shyness and anxiety to try to reconnect with some childhood friends I hadn't talked in forever bc moving countries and depression thing) (going well, really happy that we are talking again) but also like to interests and values ig? Like, most of my likes (superheroes, anime, drawing, maybe writing but not sure about that one, all started before I even turned 8 y/o) and like, aside from maturing and a couple of things, I don't think I've changed much at all. I have never stopped liking smth I used to like anyways.

16 - Openness ig? Like, I never want to be a bother so it depends on the person and the history i have with them and sometimes on the occasion, but I never really had any problems asking for help or speaking about my problems or feelings

17 - My handwriting when it's not written in a hurry

18 - My attention to detail

19 - Not getting mad easily—which is you know good with being an older sister too bc like...my dad is really annoying (but like jokingly annoying) and a lot of times bc of it (or some other times other family members) my sister and my mom get mad about some small comment they take seriously and then they get angry and leave the table or living room or whatever and then it's like all awkward bc the mood got broken (which also, a little hypocritical especially bc the sister also loves to be annoying in purpose with everyone of us) but unlike them, the middle sister and me like...we don't really care much about it? We are usually the ones that get more teased by the others but it's like, smth one therapist didn't understand, which was so annoying wtf did setting boundaries had to do with my siblings being annoying, I don't care that they are annoying bc it's like, we usually get along well (presently; there used to be constant fighting between 2 of them we were little but they are better now) and they have always been annoying but it's like, a game, I know they are not serious about the matter. I can be annoying back if I feel like it and it's all in good fun. The only times I don't like it it's when it's actually serious, with you know, intention to hurt or being passively aggressive mad about smth, stuff like that. Point is that yeah, it's also good for sibling diplomacy bc I'm rarely the one getting mad with the other ones.

20 - That I like dogs

…I can't think of 5 more. Uf, let's see…okay, getting desperate here but—

21 - That I'm Peruvian

22 - Good at cooking

23 - Good at planning

24 - My self-awareness

25 - That I like to be more positive and hopeful about things in general I think? (myself is usually an exception) Constant argument with my sister bc she can be so pessimistic sometimes. Like, life is already hard enough as it is, having fun and connecting with people makes things more enjoyable, so why not try to focus on the bright side whenever possible and make things better. She thinks I'm naive, I know I can be naive, but also, if I have to live I'm going to enjoy it bc what's the point otherwise. Generalizing things doesn't help. I think.

OKAY!! DONE!! 25 THINGS!!! FINALLY 😭💖

Thank you again and I hope you are all doing well <33

#please nobody ask me this again/lh #i had to resort for a strengths list quiz they made me do in therapy for ideas #u know for at least half of these #i had several negative counterpoints that i refrained from adding and shut the mental door on them to dismiss them #be proud of me for that #the good side of having to do 25 of these things is that I don't have to struggle anymore in choosing only 10 followers lol #but also #love this game #it's really a great way to spread positivity and the idea is just so nice #glad that it exists and that u all thought of me to send it to <3 #brightens the day and it's a good exercise #i just will die if I have to think of even 2 more things anytime soon 😂#mila habla #asks

Drool over Ramos AND love Messi? But... there's no room for objectivity in football. WHAT IS GOING ON HERE!?

*leans forward in chair* finally, a like-minded individual!!! Listen, I never said I was sane ok 😭😂 bestie, I don’t even know where to begin. Sergio Ramos is objectively hot, ok? I don’t make the rules, I just enforce ‘em 🤷‍♀️ look, he was already good-looking with long hair, but when he cut his hair short, he catapulted himself to the position of sexiest man alive. Convinced he did it just to torture us all. I mean, have you seen him with the captain’s armband on? Or with a flag wrapped around his waist when Real Madrid takes home yet another UCL? Or in that blue kit from 2014 that was just a little too tight (that was his best hair era too don’t @ me)? Actual porn. And Leo Messi…don’t even get me started!!!!! He is my favorite footballer ever and simply a blessing to the sport. A humble king with a gift that could enrapture any audience. Just like Sergio (Kun) Agüero, I will shout ✨grande Lionel✨ from the goddamn ROOFTOPS if I have to. As my favorite commentator, the immortal Ray Hudson, would tell you, defenders follow him on Facebook and he comes out on Twitter. He’s just THAT good at evading them lmao. We simply do not deserve him. In short, objectivity? Maybe on a good day. Me being unhinged? Definitely and always 😂 In other news, not sure about you, but I still haven’t processed the fact that they’ve set their rivalry aside to become an absolute force at PSG. Just…what even is the world? I’m convinced we’re all living in a simulation and that the past few football seasons have just been fever dreams, but you know what? They’re not half bad :)

#o-kurwa #welcome to the shitshow 👋😁#thanks sm for the ask 💕💕#I had WAY too much fun answering as you can probably see #sorry for the 5 paragraph essay in advance oof #it didn’t look this way in my head I swear #thanks for stopping by :)#sergio ramos #lionel messi #ramessi #mayhaps?#seriously I loved this #send me more asks anytime ok?#football #football asks

The angel lore was just like that…unfortunately

Anon I'm not sure if you thought my post was about actual biblical angels (it's not, unfortunately) but either way I'm going to use ur message as a sort of a jumping off point for me to talk a bit about my personal history behind that post (for context: it's just beneath this one on my blog and is about a guy being a wreck without his wife)

Nothing is gonna be explicit here, but I'll put the trauma related stuff below the cut.

When I am name dropping angels, I usually mean certain men from my past. All of them took on the persona of priests, and this certain group of men took on the names of biblical angels. They are distinct to me because they lived near me and often visited me at home, sort of separating them from the larger but more distant group. Their names, as I best can recall them, were Metatron, Gabriel, Raphael, Sandalphon (we called him Sandy), Uriel (we called him Matthew), and Azriel (most of us call him Scary Eyes though).

For the purposes of this post, I'll describe two of them to you.

Metatron is a large Sicilian man. He most likely had bipolar disorder, and he self medicated with alcohol and drugs, particularly cocaine. He came to America at a young age, and was brought up in a highly traditional Catholic family with strict gender roles and strict expectations.

Gabriel is a waifish pale man who probably has French heritage of some sort (considering his rampant case of Francophilia) but I'm not sure. He was most likely transgender, but was never supported enough to realize this. He's got a rampant eating disorder and a lot of emotional issues.

Given ideal circumstances, neither of these men would've abused me. Gabriel would've transitioned, and been Metatron's wife, and they'd both be happy. Sadly, life is rarely ideal, and both of these men were rampant pedophiles who treated me like the glue that kept their relationship together.

And let me tell you now, their relationship was STRANGE. Hopefully I'll talk more about them someday, but this post is long enough already.

#my guys lore #thats my trauma tag now if anyone wants to block it #ramcoa tw #ramcoa vent #metatron was a real my wife guy though #im happy to talk about these guys cuz i do not give a shit #and im also tired of being quiet and good about my trauma #if anyone wants to send me more asks ill talk about these guys anytime #thank u for ur ask!

Hi! I went scrolling though your tumblr and stumbled upon one of your previous asks where you mentioned a carter-and-sadie-get-thrown-back-in-time au. I’d love to hear more of that!

Oh hell yeah let's do this. Mind, this AU is The Absolute Most at all times.

-Okay, so, first off, extremely obvious place for this to happen is at the end of The Serpent's Shadow, when they fail to banish Apophis for whatever reason during the final battle. This is a fun place, sure, but I think it's A, better for character development, and B, funnier, if they both bite it while in the Land of Demons with Zia and Setne. Let's say they both wind up in the Sea of Chaos, win the lottery spin of various universal outcomes, and boom. Time travel.

-This is totally how magic works. Uh-huh.

-Carter has a fucking aneurysm That's Not How The Force Works-style over this, trying to figure out what the fuck happened. It's great.

-Seriously, the PJO time travel thing is fun because Percy angsts and things go wrong and he tries to do everything Alone. The Kane Chronicles one is fun because Carter and Sadie have negative respect for authority, neither of them have any issue with throwing someone through a window to save time, and they both know about a dozen different ways to get it done.

-Oh yeah, speaking of throwing! They both wake up with massive headaches right after Julius explodes the Rosetta Stone. Carter stabs a bitch (Set) with a magic sword, then passes out because ~head trauma~.

-Also, bear in mind that these kids are fourteen and twelve and the House of Life just went to six years' worth of trouble to try and keep them as much out of the know as possible. And then they show up, kicking ass and taking godly names and knowing things that they really shouldn't, like they've been at this for years.

-Desjardins needs a drink. Or possibly six.

-Something something butterfly effect something something chaos. Anyway, things here are largely Their Past But Two Inches To The Right. Sometimes things change that are small but explainable, things that are big and inexplicable, and some are medium-sized and only resolved after an offhand comment from Zia a decade from now. The biggest thing here is Carter and Sadie struggling to manage everything.

-See, the fun thing in TKC is a lot of the big decisions? You can't just speedrun that shit! Re-opening the path of the gods is dangerous and takes time. Zia won't be in a spot where she's willing and/or able to take on Ra for years. Sadie can't just walk up to Walt and say that he should just merge with a god to fix all his problems when he's barely come to terms with Tut's curse.

-Fuck, they can't even go to the Duat and start shit with Apophis because. . .well, first off, they need to go and get the shadow, which they didn't even quite manage last time, because Setne and Land of the fucking Demons. Second off, no matter how powerful they are, starting shit with Apophis with an extra plan or two is pretty suicidal. Also! There are a lot of magicians who want to kill them! They need to be careful!

-Half of the gods are extremely freaked because Carter and Sadie's minds are Not Right and getting Horus and Isis to play ball is a chore, since they need that agreement do things like the combat avatar or casting really complicated spells, even if they have two-ish years of experience under their belts.

-This does not, to be clear, stop them from trying to speedrun The Red Pyramid, or this being their exact attitude towards their resident gods-in-the-head:

[Picture ID: GIF of a Black man pointing two fingers at his eyes, staring at someone off-screen with a serious expression, and saying, "Look at me. . .look at me. I'm the captain now." End ID]

-Since. . .well, uh, look. Carter and Sadie are incredibly hyper-competent. But they're also incredibly freaked teenagers who haven't had serious adult supervision in. . .a while. They also the ability to warp reality, and have the respective jobs of: Future king of the universe and his sister, saving the world from the snake who wants to eat the sun, and re-opening an really dangerous path of magic that the Reigning Magic Organization has said they'll kill for doing.

-Also, all their friends no longer have a fucking clue who they are. Carter already did this song and dance with Zia, too, which is. . .huh. Fascinating neuroses forming there.

-The Kane siblings are very fun here, because Sadie is Very Loudly Not Fine about very mundane changes, but not saying a peep about the things that are actually fucking her up until someone taps her on the shoulder at the wrong moment when she's gone vacant-eyed at the sight of her gran and she flinches like she got punched in the jaw, while Carter is Insistently Just Fine until Jaz says hi to him one morning and he starts sobbing.

-Bast doesn't count as supervision either, because she's a cat god. Bast wants to shake them by the scruffs of their neck until they start acting their own ages or she gets a satisfactory explanation for what's taken residence in their heads. Their magical auras are wrong.

-About the only fun part of dealing with the gods is when Sadie sucker-punches Serqet and goes What, Like It's Hard?, Legally Blonde-style, to a very confused and unnerved Zia. This move is not something she can make a pattern of, to be clear. But it feels good and she can do it now, so she does.

-I have no idea if Amos is definitely still possessed here by Set, for the angsty comedy of Carter and Sadie repeatedly knocking him out and dragging him around until they have time to Deal With That, or if it's ambiguous and possibly actually in someone else? And they have to go Holmes and Watson on the case.

(Of course, they may have different gods themselves altogether, and goddammit, I need to stop coming up with AUs)

-Like, yeah, sure, they know Set is the problem, their dad is probably fine, but they have to explain this in such a way that people don't think they're possessed! This is a very valid concern and leads to worries that they're terrorizing their younger selves by stealing their bodies or something.

(they're not. but it's a Recurring Thing that people think that they've possessed Younger Carter And Sadie)

-Anyway, they still get dragged to the First Nome, because Julius broke half a dozen rules of magician-ing, these kids are acting. . .like they've been possessed by Horus and Isis, to be honest.

-Carter tries to warn Zia about the being-possesed-by-a-god thing before Iskandar tries to save her life and inadvertently consign her to Watery Nightmare Coma Hell, to convince her to come with them, and thinking honesty may be the best policy--Zia's pretty morally upright, and more than trustworthy and willing to trust the Kanes, after all.

-This does not go as Carter planned.

-Sadie, remembering Iskandar fucking dies and not wanting to deal with the complicated and short reign of Desjardins as Chief Lector (or the whole guilt thing about him dying and just. . .complicated. Inconvenient. Just make sure it never happens!) by giving him a boost in the health department and extending his life.

-This does not go as Sadie planned.

-Oh, and neither of them know how to convince Nephthys to play ball since neither of them know Set's name, so even though they know how to defeat him, short out of an out-and-out brawl that there's no guarantee they can win, they need to get that! And Anubis is super suspicious and not into getting bullied by Isis into giving them a Feather of Truth!

-On the bright side, they decide to pull the Carter Will One Day Be Pharaoh Card and convince Sobek to be, like, marginally useful as the pharaoh's enforcer after Sadie dropkicked Serqet into next week.

-Meanwhile, Iskandar is alive, but reluctantly all They Should Probably Be Brought In And Restrained At Minimum. Zia is contemplative and ends up pursuing Carter and Sadie on her own after her powers start going sideways and Iskandar nearly does knock her out.

-So now Zia's a fugitive. Sort of. Iskandar really doesn't want to do it, but Desjardins is doing the Godlings Must Die thing, and a lot of the First Nome is on his side.

(He lightens up after the Kane siblings + Zia manage to save the world and certain things about Sadie and Iskandar's health come to life. Marginally)

-Anyway, things are chaotic, sort of working out for the better, but Carter and Sadie are about fifteen times more traumatized than they were last time.

-Also, Jaz is canonically from Nashville, so I say that when they decide to drop by Thoth's place to try and get an idea of What The Fuck happened, they find her and she joins their ridiculous quest to Save The World: Electric Boogaloo, because Highly Enthusiastic Southern Cheerleader Who Just Found Out She Can Commit Arson With Her Mind is a brilliant person to have along.

-I think the last big thing I have from this, beyond everything going so sideways (The House of Life is, like, ninety percent sure that Carter and Sadie are possessed, but can't do much about it at the moment beyond periodically trying to kill them) is the whole power thing.

-The urge to basically blast their way through everyone until they agree with what's up is strong, guys. Also, the urge to drag Setne out of the Underworld just to beat him up for a bit. Lots of power struggles and reminding themselves not to commit too many war crimes in the face of an oncoming apocalypse where they have no idea what their best plan is, and also, half the people they could trust off the bat this time? Don't trust 'em this time.

-Oh yeah, and for a while, Amos and Julius/Osiris aren't unconvinced that this isn't some sort of power play by Horus and Isis to leverage things in their favor, so. . .. Sad times. :(

-I am a big fan of "Time travel doesn't necessarily fix everything", but this trilogy is just so fucking chaotic, and so many of the biggest parts rely on character growth, and you can't force that! No matter how much you may get frustrated and want to, if you're Sadie and/or Carter.

#i got an ask!#the kane chronicles #tkc #carter kane #sadie kane #zia rashid #this is extremely ridiculous but very fun #so much pain all the way around and i love how fast things unravel #but yeah no the house of life is convinced that carter and sadie are possessed and to be fair!#it looks bad from an outside pov. the explanation is patently batshit #unfortunately it is true #these kids need therapy and they're not getting it anytime soon #okay sadie has emma and liz because there is no force more powerful on this planet #than extremely loyal teenage girl bffs #also jaz and carter and zia are bros. she's just really kind and optimistic at a time when the two of them need it #seriously i don't talk about much zia here because carter and sadie are Carter And Sadie but she is having the Worst Time here #the house of life fucked up! she has no idea if carter and sadie are even SAFE but they seem to be telling the truth and iskandar tried to #send her to watery nightmare coma hell #they also try not to dump it all on her at once but she does find out about how her entire village was killed by apophis to off her in the #worst way possible. so there's that
