I couldn't stop thinking about an AU where Daniel resorts to gathering vitae again, this time to 'cure' Hazel, after his Brennenburg adventure💫, thoughts all mainly derived from this loadscreen text that tells us that Hazel is still in hospice care by the time the game's story began.

As much as I love Daniel, I don't think he really learned all that much from his experience even in the most charitable ending towards him in which he saves Agrippa. I can very, VERY easily see him slipping back into old ways if it meant saving Hazel. The most he seems to approach viewing torture as bad is when he realizes he himself no longer counts as an innocent so he can't justify killing others to save himself anymore. But killing no good, horrible, bad people to save HAZEL? Now, we're cooking with gas 😀 💀

#amnesia the dark descent #daniel of mayfair #hazel amnesia #fan art #frictional games #curing hazel AU #is what i'm calling it 🤣 i have a lot of other ideas i've been brainstorming #i'm considering this a title page i guess idk 😐 i kind of want to make this a larger project i work on but we'll see how that turns out 😅 #also the lighting here is only for the drama💫 i don't think hazel would actually drink bright blue tea even if daniel gave it to her 😂 #other things i'd like to explore in this au maybe: daniel and hazel reuniting/daniel taking her to live with him in london #the orb coming back into the picture wouldn't it be funny if the shadow brought it back like 'here you forgot this' lmao #obvs not SAYING that but the vibe💫 #daniel being a bad scary man again which is highkey heartbreaking to imagine 🥲 #daniel almost getting caught by authorities and giving them the orb like 'here's all the info you need 😊' knowing damn well he just marked #those men for the shadow now rip #hazel living a 'normal' life not knowing what daniel be up to #hazel being healthy 🥲 #hazel meeting the mandus she meets that is oswald's great grandfather? #i have IDEAS #and i know most of them probably won't get drawn which is why i'm word vomiting them into the tags 🤣

The Events of the Year 1900-1901 1899-1899

I don't have time for another fic right now, so I have to sum up.

The Ex-Disgraced Academic has their appellation because they were booted from the University and High Society. This happens to pretty much everyone along the main Fallen London plotline. But it hit them harder, and they never quite got over it.

The Ex-Disgraced Academic is driven by curiosity. They're a very classic sort of Mad Scientist. The Neath is one big book, and they want to keep reading. If there's no next page, then they have to get out there and make it.

They want to see what happens.

Spoilers for Evolution, Heart's Desire below:

The Academic has spent this past year going back and forth between The Evolution plotline and wormgrinding, which for them was a lab carousel for Cartographer's Hoards. I've got plenty of jokes I'd like to make about that grind sometime, but the most important thing to know is that they have well and truly devalued an expensive item. This is the text you get when you get one:

And this is how many they had, partway through grinding:

I didn't even get a shot of the total number, because I sold a lot of them halfway through out of sheer boredom. I needed to see some other number go up for a change.

Doing massive amounts of research, smuggling it out of London, and disseminating it upriver was a fairly in-character thing for The Academic to do. Forbidden knowledge in the hands of the public has been their M.O., after all. And as they could make a tidy sum off the whole deal and incensify their rivmantic colleague, why not?

The Academic's destiny, by the way, is Gleam:

Not exactly shocking, considering that they're a Mr Cards, but that's the "accompanies The Masters when The Bazaar leaves, but never truly becomes one of them" destiny, not the "I am one of you now" ending. The Academic really loves London, for all its flaws, but was also supremely arrogant: they chose Power instead of Time at the end of Heart's Desire because they wanted to forge a path for London, rather than relying on the word of The Masters. And if they had access to lots and lots of secrets, then surely putting those into the hands of the public would mean that scientific advancement would flourish!

And, incidentally, The Academic would get to see what happens. That's just incidental, of course. They're doing this for kindly reasons, they would assure you (and themself), reasons that benefit London. They would never be so careless as to allow unchecked experimentation to run rampant through The Neath. They would never encourage scholars and NPCs to commit grievous acts of body horror upon themselves merely to sate an addiction to see what happens.

If you've played Evolution, you know what is about to happen.

Evolution has been an exercise in trying to play nice with many of the same people who cast them out of society. Evolution can be many things, but for The Academic, it's a tale of scientific openness, a tale of forgiveness and community and-

It's a tale of throwing one person after another under the boat in their quest for power and The Dilmun Club is one big piggy bank and the Naturalist is not a person, but the control group.

Because it didn't really matter what sort of perks knowing the Boatman or fulfilling The Masters' promise to the old one might be. Calling in favors with the person who decides who lives and dies or getting the thumbs claws-up from your peers is far, far inferior to that sweet, addictive rush of encouraging the person who has trusted you and worked with you, someone you quite like, to stumble at the final step of their ambition, to not take into account new information, to doggedly pursue their goals at all costs, causing their humanity to unravel before their very eyes.

It hurt a lot more the first time The Academic did it, anyway.

The Academic knew they were going to go The Hanged Man route before they even drew the card, knew that they were going to split the Naturalist off into something unrecognizable, and when they stepped back to the loom in Irem, they were positively drunk on this power. They gorged themself on the visions of the possible futures, shuffling and flipping over card after card after card, the proverbial child given access to a pack of cigarettes, laughing at the leniency of their parents, until they realize that they're trapped inside the gift, that it's turned on them, that this was a punishment all along, stifling and choking them, because it wasn't fun, it wasn't freedom, it was bad, it was always bad, and en masse, it is killing them.

They could have any destiny, any at all, but now that they'd seen them all, now that they'd read them all, they'd pilfered their future right out from under their hands. What were they supposed to read? What do you do when you can look at all the futures and you realize that they're all painful, or fearful, that you can't hold onto the lovely city you adore forever, that all things must die or change beyond recognition?

You go back to work. A little broken, a little shattered. You sail to the Khanate, do a little dirty work for Fires and Stones, and take the long way home because you can't bear to pass by Irem again. You dock back on familiar Netha Firma, breathe in the mushroomy air, and head for Veilgarden. Sometimes, the simplest pleasures can be overlooked. Sometimes you just want a minute with your fellow man.

But then The Dilmun club calls. They're throwing throwing a huge banquet! In your honor! Because you did it! You unlocked the secret to life everlasting, to the continuity of a singular life form, you understand how to weave causality and change the future and though not a single one understands a word you're saying, it all seems oh so very charmingly impressive, and everyone, everyone is clapping

and you're being invited to a private supper with Her Majesty herself and both colleges are so very proud of you and you're going to be in all the London papers, and think about how amazing it will be, to share this knowledge with the public at large, and wait what's that that's being handed to you-

what is this

what

Oh.

And you realize that you've already read this one. Not the map. Not the whole damned sheaf. These people. This city. You've read it. There is nothing more for this city to give you. And maybe that's why it's the Fifth one, maybe that's why these small little people with their small little minds don't appreciate good research, whether they're lauding you or leaving you, maybe the infinite possibilities of scientific research, the blossoming fruits of causality. Maybe you should, in fact, hoard it all for yourself. Maybe it isn't, in the end, ethical to be charitable. Maybe your destiny was right all along, save for the mindset. Maybe you are one of them. Maybe you should rob the city of every last story from every last crevice, keep it all for you to read, and tear up two more cities when you leave with the rest of your bat-kin.

Maybe those ingrates just plain don't deserve to see what happens.

#fallen london #fallen london spoilers #OCs #The Ex-Disgraced Academic #Mr Cards #This write up is rough and as quick as I could make it #but it still got long and out of hand #The Academic has been slipping further and further into villain territory for the last year #I'd say that they've been low morality for a while now #But this was a blast of sheer SPITE #Honestly if it weren't for that last scene with The Dilmun Club I think they might've turned things around a bit #They were so close to healthy closure #But this was A Joker Moment XDDD

my hair oiling routine ♡

I start my routine by deeply brushing my hair with a bamboo brush (5 minutes aprox)

Then, I put two oils in my hair

Gisou oil (20ml, 22€)

Handmade oil:

Ingredients:

- Rosemary branches

- Olive oil

- Water

- Honey

1st Put the rosemary in hot water and let it sit for 5 - 10 minutes

2nd Add 3 teaspoons of honey and some olive oil to the pot

3rd Let it seat for 10 minutes

Your Handmade oil is done

Should look like this

! The water shouldn’t be boiling or else you will burn the oil

!! Let it rest for at least 30 minutes before using

!!! The more organic ingredients are, better results you will get

I continue by doing a scalp massage

Lastly, I leave it for at least 1 hour putting it up with a claw clip

That’s it !!

you're so right and i apologize. you want them back in the mines, who would eat a coal-covered child

i need to work out so so much this month and july and get tan... long walks and weight training every single day minimum… jog hopefully once a week at least… and go to the beach every weekend. cuz it’s crunch time. bust my ass time. just wish it wasn’t so miserably hot and humid here in summer

#i need to get fit (as in healthy/in shape) before london so that when my mom sees me she will think I am normal and well-adjusted and shit #I need her to believe i have my shit together or I will never hear the end of it

This is an exposition of my once broken heart

[press play, then read]

This song is so beautiful I had to look up who it was inspired by. Who was worthy of it?

The last time I did that it was with “Complicated” by Nivea and I found out the man she wrote it about she divorced shortly afterwards.

In the lyrics of Complicated, Nivea sings that her friends warned her this isn’t how love is supposed to go but she ‘refuses to believe’ because she’s convinced the red flags turning green is really happening to her. She states this love was life giving her something back, like she was owed it. And then declares her love before a sad guitar solo. The song even opens with the sound of rain.

I used to cling to that song as the ultimate love song. I see it as the antithesis of ‘So into You’ - so we can use it to explore how my mind’s view of love has matured by contrasting these songs against one another.

‘Complicated’ even by the title sounds like a sad song. The long rain sound opening and entire vibe of the song is completely sad sounding. How could it have been my ultimate love song of choice?

Because that was the love I knew. Love inseparable from toxic complications, doubts of commitment and a sad love that said ‘I’ll prove them wrong these red flags actually have a perfectly good explanation. They’ll see.’

I know this post is God. This morning I just happened to see this throwback of Lauren London pregnant- with lil Wayne’s child?! I never knew that happened… then now, looking for Nivea’s muse I find out she was pregnant by Wayne at the same time as Lauren. All in the same morning. Wayne was the complication she sung of when comparing him to her muse in ‘Complicated’.

One of the biggest red flags of complicated as a song was the lack of description of the muse she was in love with. It sings of a fairytale where only the woman’s journey is described. There’s no reason given for why she loves him or even if he loves her back. It sounds like a love that takes place in the singers head. Thinking and dreaming about him in her head all day, but no stories to sing of to match.

All we know is he made her his wife. The entire rest of the song is not bout him at all. As if there was nothing to say.

Tamia sings of thoughts of him running through her head but also of the real life reflection of how he is actually worth these thoughts.

Psalms shows when you love someone there’s a lot to say about what they’ve done.

It sounds like Nivea’s in love with the feelings she gets from thinking he loves her and repeats how she loves him will do whatever he asks, Tamia sings she loves what he’s Done to her and how he makes her feel is right. But also about ‘how you speak to and hold me. And you love me.’

Tamia sings of dreams too but also that they’re together firmly in the very next sentence and is aiming for a committed love.

Tamia sings let’s stay together - a combined effort, Nivea sings I’ll never let you go as if she’s the one holding them together

Nivea sings that she has no idea what’s happening or what he’s doing and is just grateful he’s in her life. That love is magic it can’t be described. Tamia sings that she can’t explain it but she is awake and aware of what he does and sees that what he does is good.

Nivea sings she dreams about him all day. Tamia sings he’s a dream come TRUE. It moved beyond fantasy of his potential - it was real love manifested in reality.

So I thought Love was something I was owed from the same man for the pain I would go through to stick by him despite the trouble and pain he put me through, correcting and improving him along the way.

Can I expose him for a second? His thoughts are thrown up in my mind for years to come. I feel nothing but I know how poor he was now. Poor in the mind. Poor in the heart.

“I would never call my wife or gf beautiful, that’s just not how I operate.” Never apologised for leaving me up waiting for calls several times, Late into the night. Said he finally decided to stop being petty only bc he realised being petty is a woman’s thing. Said wives obey their husbands bc they know if they disobey there’ll be consequences. He was colorist. Genuinely thought his country was supreme to others of the same race. girls are replaceable. Left me in a 3y unclear talking stage, had a rumoured gf for part of the first year that I had to find out about myself when he just said she was his prom date, announced he lost his ********* since after we started talking on livestream just after I joined. Told me id get no where in life overthinking when I explained how I felt. Said women are just another h** until he’s met their family. Thinks women can never be needed (marriage), just added to a life optionally.

When I told him I described some of his behaviour to a friend who said he would use me and discard me his reply was “Even if I did that’s none of their business it’s nothing to do with them.“

I was Nivea.

2.

They Don’t Know - Jon B is the male answer to Nivea’s Complicated. A man expressing how her friends are just jealous and he is a player but he just happened to quit when he met her. It used to read love to me but it sounds more to the tune of gaslighting, now. It was the voice I listened to, to reaffirm that he would change for me. Because the man I listened on behalf of would never tell me himself.

I thought he would change because I prayed enough for it. Because God wanted him to, I thought. I just had to hold it together for a while whilst he breaks me. Not God, him. No. That’s trying to love someone but it is not Love. If you’ve seen that Bruce Almighty scene then you know you can’t change someone who chooses to remain the same willingly.

3.

& now, our happy ending.

“So into you” is the only expression of stable committed love song I know by a female voice. The rest have an air of uncertainty like full commitment is still in question. Like best part by H.E.R “won’t you give yourself to me?” As if all was not already given. Listen closer to the lyrics of your favourite love song. Is It healthy?

Tamia sings of a Stable Love that she has already and wishes to continue, that she loves and is loved in action and word. Heaven sent.

It opens with the most beautiful warm sound and carries into a slow beautiful stable melody that sounds so relaxed. Like a warm day.

And who did this worthy man turn out to be? A fine then NBA Star, man of God who stuck though his wife coming 25 years now through illness and challenges on both ends. Real Love.

Of course - a marriage built on Christ can only stand. He invented it.

I’m praying for it.

Outro: well I came here to try and write about the new in my life which I wasn’t able to express and I guess the exposition of my heart up until the present which I then stopped at instead- and still can’t write about - shows I still can’t. But I love what I wrote today. I didn’t know what was happening to me I was so confused and darkened about love but these 3 years I’ve Studied Gods word I can see that I know that He is love. And so I know so much clearer what Love is.

1 John 4:7-12 “Whoever does not know love does not know God because God is love. This is how God showed his love among us; He sent his one and only son into the world that we might live through him.”
