🐉🌸♀️ With him being the kind of husband whose neverending favorite story to brag about to every new person he meets is how much of a miraculous fate it was that he was born much much later than he should have, just in time to attend NRC the same time as you did. You who stumbled upon a world that isn't yours, stayed at an abandoned dorm he in particular happened to frequent, and went outside for fresh air at the exact same moment he was passing by. He wouldn't get tired of how amazed he was that he found his princess in a school full of men, of all places. If that isn't fate, then what is?

And that's just the prequel to a long, long talk of him just reminiscing your time together at NRC with astonishing detail. He goes through it every holiday. Every Halloween. Every New Year's. Every birthday. Basically every opportunity he gets. It comes to a point where your children finish his sentences for him. It comes to a point where novels and plays and movies get made with your love story as the blueprint.

Your story gets so dramaticized and embellished that it barely resembles your memories anymore. And honestly? You prefer it that way. Nobody else but you and him will know what exactly happened between you two, and it will remain a precious memory-- a sort of secret, that the two of you will look back on fondly for the rest of your days.

#honestly this is just me sometimes thinking how much of a convenient coincidence everything is #he's so suspiciously connected to ramshackle that it feels deliberate #he's definitely also clueless #and doesn't realize he's been led to meet the player at that point in time #it's either the writers planning this for fanservice or some other plot conspiracy lol #twisted wonderland #ventique rambles #malleus draconia #malleus x reader

Something interesting to consider: Adam Murray's dad is called Jude, right? You know what Saint Jude is the patron saint of?

Fucking wild that "carpet-bombing cities is evil. also a war crime" is considered a controversial opinion by anyone anywhere on this earth

#our blessed homeland their barbarous wastes dot meme #also i realize that in practice a war crime is whatever those in power decide is a war crime #and that international law contains (arguably v deliberate) inbuilt ambiguities which enable this #however surely by ANY reasonable measure carpet bombing millions of people is the very definition of collective punishment!!! #my posts #palestine #no more war

i think a lot of people don’t always realize the difference between “this is how i interpret canon” and “this is how i want to write it because that’s what’s fun to me”. a lot of times the latter is all headcanons or AUs are, not an indication of what the writer thinks “is” or “should be” canon

more power to those who are super tuned into actual canon and know these details like the back of their hand, but sometimes people just wanna use a series as a sandbox, not a ruleset. genuinely nothing but respect for people who ARE that knowledgeable, but i and a lot of other people are just here to have fun with characters we enjoy—and want to put them in more accessible settings

#this isn't meant to be grandstanding or anything i'm just thinking aloud. i know i've said stuff like this before it just hit me suddenly #thinking about those weird anons from a while back who were really getting on my case about this #and i could not wrap my head around what the problem was because it’s like. that’s why it’s an au? #why are you mad about details of an au not lining up with canon #that’s the whole point of it being. an au #like of course shadow would normally be able to visit certain places. of course he should already know omega. #but there is a deliberate reason why second chance shadow can't/doesn't #and now i realize it's probably because they were seeing my posts entirely out of context #but still don't go attacking people for out of context posts either?? #i'm shocked no one's seriously gotten on my case about aruna's hive yet because it's a prime example of 'intentionally nowhere near canon' #and like overall just don't be a penders and you're fine #lord knows i've got plenty of 'characters who have strayed so far from canon they may as well be OCs' in my pocket #but i still acknowledge they're not by definition OCs yknow #sometimes you just wanna use a funny lil guy as groundwork and then do your own thing #sea talks

why do people talk like Matthew and Nicholas adlibbing some of the most insane TomGreg moments makes those moments “not count” or whatever? “oh it wasn’t in the script so it’s not part of the show’s real visio--” do you think this is live theatre

#succession #tomgreg #if it made it past the editing process it is by definition part of the show #not to mention that there are definitely alternate takes #the inclusion of those scenes was a deliberate choice by multiple people sorry to say

[heretherebedork]

Did the "good night" mork say to day had any meaning other than good night? I feel like there is cultural context that I don't get 😭

Saying 'good night' in Thailand definitely has more intimate meaning, especially the specific way they shared it, it's often a bit flirty or very sweet and soft and it's definitely part of a closer relationship than employee and employeer or caretaker and blind person. It's something softer.

I don't know the full cultural picture but I know that it's very much a part of caring about someone, about wishing them a good night and meaning it, about wanting to take care of a person and to know that they rest well and sleep well.

#last twilight #asked and answered #it's meaningful and deliberate and often romantic #but it's definitely indicative of a deeper and more caring relationship

[uhbasicallyjustmilex]

Wait where did Miles kiss a guy?? 👀 I can't see it in the video

he doesn’t actually kiss him, just tries to lol. it’s a really brief moment in the background here! he’s clearly SO drunk in this whole video so who knows what’s going on or what it means lol, but yeah. my fic writer’s brain is spiralling at having yet more visual evidence of what miles looks like leaning in to kiss another man 😭

#he’s also pretty affectionate with the guy in the other clips #does anyone know who he is?? #i deliberately know very little about any friends/relationships miles and alex have in their personal lives #so i could definitely be missing some context here! #asks #miles kane #lulu posts

Arya thinking that Jon's direwolf "was a Ghost too" when she sees the Ghost of High Heart (w/ white hair and red eyes)

#the ghost of high heart gave us cryptic prophecies + subtler foreshadowing and I'm here for it #Ghost becoming a literal ghost after Jon dies and wargs into him since they're part of each other...wow... #like yeah his name /is/ Ghost but the wording of it is definitely a lot more deliberate imo #and it wouldn't be the first time George has snuck in foreshadowing for Jon in Arya's chapters (and vice-versa) #don't mind me I'm just going insane over their relationship + writing #their chapters are written like a conversation between them...George is just so /deliberate/ with how he weaves their characters together

Biting the bars of my enclosure about autistic ford tonight. There's something about him using vocabulary and turns of phrase that seem "outdated" or "pretentious" that feels so painfully genuine to me. When people say he talks like that just to "try to sound smart" I wish I could explain what it's like to be so ostracized from your peers growing up that you spend all your time reading instead, to the point where you pick up your way of speaking from books instead of from people. And then what it's like for people to call you out for "talking weird" over and over again, not able to wrap their heads around why the fuck you would choose more archaic or technical or formal words than the simpler ones that surely come to everyone's minds first. What it's like to have to dedicate a sizable chunk of attention to filtering through every single word you say out loud in real time before you say it, to make absolutely sure that it isn't a word people will judge you for using or make fun of you for using, just so you'll have a chance of being taken seriously. Learning through trial and error how to filter out the words that other people don't think are normal or casual enough for the conversation, even though for you, the word choice that's "natural-sounding" enough for them is the third or fourth word you came up with when searching for the right way to phrase something in your head. I wish I could explain just how long it takes to say fucking anything after spending a lifetime doing that during every single conversation, and how repetitive and long-winded you end up being when you spend so long coming up with alternative ways of saying every little thing you ever think. And I wish people realized that, at the very least for autistic people and autistic-coded characters, speech that's seen as pretentious is really just the way they talk when they're not putting in the extra effort to filter through every word they say just so others will take the time to listen.

#ford meta #actuallyautistic #everyone go read the wikipedia page for 'stilted speech' right now #long post #ford isnt very good at masking. he doesn't have the kind of (unintentional) autistic coding that is Palatable To Neurotypicals. #definitely looking-too-deeply-at-a-kid-cartoon right now but in *some* ways. a world where the majority of people think its easy to like an #-understand ford is a world that would feel safe for me to unmask in. #i truly truly hate that fully explaining my thoughts on ford requires me to say so much about myself. but god is it such a crime- #-to use a fictional character as a lens through which to try and explain to people how to be more understanding and accepting- #-of things like this. #making fun of stilted speech is so normalized that people don't even realize they're making fun of someone for being weird. #people think its Someone Thinking They're Better Than You but its something people lay awake at night wishing they could stop doing. #and yet they still end up using the Wrong Words and being labeled a Pretentious Asshole just for talking differently than the norm. #maybe there really are people out there who deliberately use big words to try and sound smarter than everyone else. I don't know. #all I know is. in a world where its pretty obvious that people who use a discongruently complex vocabulary get made fun of for doing that. #why would someone deliberately trying to impress people do something that would only get them laughed at. #sorry for being genuine on main. as if its my fault </3

Ok i’m having a little conspiracy moment and i just noticed something

right so in htn ch. 33, pal says this about third house literature:

this is not that interesting apart from the name- Abella Trine (obviously a third name, Muir mentioned that ianthe and corona would have been called abella and cainabeth)

it goes on:

obviously this is a reference to bad wattpad style writing and trashy romance novels but…

Those seem awfully similar to some other characters we know…

Abella is ianthe- the name, as i mentioned, is one Muir had been using for one of the Tridentarii (presumably ianthe). Plus the description- too skinny, a pain in the arse, immensely talented at flesh magic

the spoiled swordswoman is coronabeth- the description is very corona reminiscent: spoiled, handy with a sword, parties a lot. The fact that the “narrative doesn’t like her” is interesting- we already know corona and ianthe have an… interesting relationship, and if my theory is correct, this provides some more insight into ianthe’s mind

the tedious widower seems to me like harrow- the fact that Abella (ianthe) is into her, the fact she is described as tedious, but mostly because of:

the saintly husband. This is gideon- the widower’s spouse who “ate a grenade.” Seems like a very gideon thing to do. Can’t think why.

The similarities just seem too deliberate to be a coincidence

my theory is that this is ianthe’s version of gtn and htn. If she got a book to herself it would be this- a trashy romance novel with her as the protagonist. besides, didn’t Tazmyn Muir say that ianthe would see herself as the main character in a romcom? That’s a coincidence. if we think of it as such, that means we have an inkling into the devious machinations of this terrible woman’s mind since it’s all from her pov

things i noticed that could be significant:

The narrative not treating corona well- how much does ianthe like her sister? We know she is pretty much the only one ianthe cares about, but loving and liking someone are very different.

the “two massive misunderstandings-“ not sure what this refers to, but feels noteworthy

the fact that ianthe’s happy ending would be raising a kid with harrow- did not expect something so domestic from our resident terrible person

also how did the book come to be there? i’m definitely thinking about this way too hard, but if it is somehow ianthe’s pov, it couldn’t have been in the room when pal died since the whole thing about the husband eating a grenade (gideon sacrificing herself) hadn’t happened yet. How did this book get to be in the river? Can ianthe somehow influence the bubble pal was in? (This seems like a bit much since not even the lytors seem to have much control over the river)

The similarities aren’t one to one and there’s plenty that isn’t quite how it happened (cue abigale). But if it’s just some book and ianthe didn't write it (more likely imo), it still feels important because of all the parallels. I still feel it can offer insight into ianthe’s version of events

this is eating at my brain far more than it should.

tl:dr

IANTHE IS THE WATTPAD PROTAGONIST OF THE LOCKED TOMB SERIES

edit: saw on a post by @feverdreamdrifting that “griddle” is probably not harrow’s childhood pronunciation of “gideon” and the mention of a “phonetically impossible lisp” may possibly refer to harrow here? Maybe?

please share your own thoughts, i am so confused and curious.

How do you personally feel about Yiffany being named Yiffany? Do you call them a different name? The sides of her name seem to be very split from “ don’t care, I think it’s funny “ or “ I hate the name and it’s disgusting “ and I find it interesting to know what people think! Hope this answer isn’t too bothersome 😁

The name is a big part of it. It is worth mentioning that Rose's comedic delivery of her full name's reveal in Chapter 8 was extremely funny to me, but it's more than that: it is what makes the character as extreme as it is. As the grand culmination of everything that makes the Candy timeline interesting (and everything that makes it worth trying to escape, which has been a clear goal for the characters since Chapter 16), Yiffy represents the deterioration of her parents' canonical integrity. She is the ultimate victim of what could be described as the official flanderization dimension, and she should not exist. Rose shouldn't have gone behind Kanaya's back. Rose and Jade shouldn't have named her that. Rose and Jade shouldn't have hid her from her family (like Jake) for the sake of a plot reveal. I hope this makes her angry. I hope she finds out about the nature of her reality and either has an existential crisis or finally understands things that have been upsetting and confusing her for so long, or both. I trust the current writers to deliver on at least one of these hopes.

#her deliberate controversiality also makes dirk see her as a threat which had me invested but the new team might drop that darn oh well #on a related note i'm glad the post-hiatus team dropped the chapter format because i think it was fucking up the pacing and more #homestuck beyond canon #yiffany longstocking lalonde harley #ruby harlonde #homestuck 2 #yiffy lalonde harley #homestuck #📑 #update: if that sarah zedig post from june 20 2023 i reread is true‚ then yea the chapter format was DEFINITELY downgrading the comic
