If These Walls Could Talk- NOW COMPLETE! - Chapter 43

Chapter 43 - The Next Big Thing

It was morning, and having been thoroughly and gloriously tortured by Malfoy for the past twelve hours, as well as a lot of torturing him right back, with several equally glorious hours of that spent sleeping or in the ephemeral space between, half conscious and tangled together like tree roots, Hermione was very much ready for a large quantity of tea, followed by breakfast, hopefully followed by yet more exquisite torture.

This movie was my lesbian awakening

I related, and still relate, SO MUCH to Michelle Williams character, Linda. Not just in her realizing she was a butch-loving femme lesbian, but in her struggles with it. The judgment from her friends, even those who were lesbian feminists, because they could not understand the attraction she felt towards a GNC woman like Amy (Chloe Sevigny)

I hated the scene were she mistreated Amy in front of said friends so much, and it scared me, because I knew it could easily be me. As a shy, socially awkward teen, I always cared way too fucking much about what people think of me, trying so hard to be pallatable to them, and a lot of that has stayed with me to this day. One example I can think of is when my gf got a very butch hairstyle and I thought it looked hot af, but my first gut reaction was to worry about what other people would think, and how they would treat her. This is a problem.

So many people literally do not understand how lesbians like us exist. I had a guy friend who was excited that I would be able to talk about girls with him, but later became exceedingly confused by the women I actually went for, completely unlike the straight girls he liked. Another is all the times I heard "but she looks/dresses/acts like a guy!" and how it made me feel so insecure and exasperated and not understood

We have made huge strides in LGBT rights and acceptance, but we still have so much work to do in terms of acceptance of GNC women and butch lesbians. Why is it that the accepted version of lesbians in media is usually two straight looking, femenine presenting women? Why does society still consider butches and more masc presenting women to be scary and unnattractive? And why are lesbians (femme or butch) who are attracted to these types of women SO invisibilized?

We need more movies like this. Stop being scared of "perpatuating dated stereotypes" or whatever. Butch/Femme stories need to be told. Butch/Butch stories need to be told. Butch women are still very much around and always will be, and so are lesbians who love them.

And that's on periodt

On the sofa,

He says,

really?

“Everywhere,

I want you everywhere.

I want you in the bedroom,

On the sofa,

On the kitchen countertop,

On the seats we entertain guests on,

I want every wall of every room in this house to bear witness that I am yours,

That my skin smells of your sweat, 

That my body is home more to you than to me,

So that when they talk they’ll only speak in the sounds we make,

The ones heard through hands over ears,

Screaming accusations of having no shame,

Because there is none,

Not in loving you”

𝐈𝐟 𝐓𝐡𝐞𝐬𝐞 𝐖𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐬 𝐂𝐨𝐮𝐥𝐝 𝐓𝐚𝐥𝐤 || A Volturi Anthology Series

As per my January goal, here is the release of my anthology series about The Volturi! Each chapter is a self contained snapshot and the fic overall is a companion piece to my series “The Fall of this Empire shall be Deafening”.

Below you will find some notes of mine for this short piece, due to this series’ nature I have elected to not post it on Tumblr. You will however get my worldbuilding, translations and other anecdotes. 

Now, on to the story;

In our first chapter I take us back to 5 BC, it is three days since Didyme was murdered and we find ourselves in Aro and Caius’ company.

𝐑𝐄𝐀𝐃 𝐀𝐓 𝐀𝐎𝟑

or

𝐑𝐄𝐀𝐃 𝐌𝐘 𝐍𝐎𝐓𝐄𝐒 ↴

Ad Meliora - toward better things / for the better. As the translation says, this little piece is the consequences of Aro and Caius’ actions, something they did ‘for the better’. However, we start to see how it is quite the opposite, and that Aro’s control has slipped to such an extent it already has been for nought. Caius comes to that realisation towards the end of the chapter, and he finally weeps. He realises that he has failed.

The Quote - It is Aro’s loss of control and giving into the voices in his head that truly sets the course for The Volturi’s fate, he let the worst parts of himself take over. it all comes back to Didyme. And so the state will fall.

Aro in the dark - The scene is a callback to Aro’s turning in my origin story for him; He Loves Power. A Terrible Love.

Caius’ Edge - Though subtle, the fact that Caius would not grant his guards reprieve is because this Caius has yet to go through his trauma. This is about two decades before he has his fateful encounter with a werewolf. His part in Didyme’s murder is the catalyst for his desire to overwork himself and spiralling towards that fateful moment. This is the beginning of the end for this version of Caius.

A Wild Felix - He is in fact the only guard in the modern day who knew Didyme.

The time of the year - While a bit on the nose; I do find it fitting that Didyme dies on the first day of autumn, seeing as though I see her as the embodiment of spring. And now Marcus is about to enter his own eternal winter without her.

Jimmy Webb: Ten Easy Pieces : If These Walls Could Speak

* * * *

Lyrics Jimmy Webb

If these old walls, if these old walls could speak Of things that they remember well Stories and faces dearly held A couple in love livin' week to week Rooms full of laughter If these walls could speak If these old halls, hallowed halls could talk These would have a tale to tell Of sun goin' down and dinner bell And children playing at hide and seek from floor to rafter If these halls could speak They would tell you that I'm sorry For bein' cold and blind and weak They would tell you that it's only That I have a stubborn streak If these walls could speak If these old fashioned window panes were eyes I guess they would have seen it all Each little tear and sigh and footfall And every dream that we came to seek or followed after If these walls could speak They would tell you that I owe you More than I could ever pay Here's someone who really loves you Don't ever go away That's what these walls would say They would tell you that I owe you More than I could ever pay Here's someone who really loves you Don't ever go away That's what these walls would say That's what these walls would say That's what these walls would say

If These Walls Could Talk - Chapter 39

Chapter 39 - The Hospital “Hermione!” Ginny sounded happy to see her at least, propped up in bed by a mountain of pillows and dressed in a bright pink hospital robe with little smiley yellow flowers on it. The damn thing clashed so wildly with both her natural colouring and her usual style that Hermione almost laughed. “I came as soon as I could,” she said, smiling and dragging a chair closer to the bed. “It’s good to see you though, Gin, how are you feeling?” “Been better,” she said with a warm smile, but Hermione saw the tiredness and stress weighing down the expression.

sara ahmed about the movie if these walls could talk 2 (dir. jane anderson, 2000): 

[...] when she asks the hospital staff to see abby they say, “only family are allowed.” she is excluded from the sphere of intimates. she is a nonrelative, or not-family. the nurse asks, “is she any relation of yours, madam?” she replies, “i’m a friend, a very good friend.” they respond only with another question, “does she have any family?” the friend disappears in the weight of the address. the recognotion of family ties as the only ties that are binding means abby dies alone; it means edith waits all night, alone. 

their relationship is hidden as friendship, while friendship itself becomes produced as a lesser tie, less binding, another kind of fragile.
