Buddie (and Chris) domestic life; a snippet

"Buck?" The blonde didn't turn around but stopped completely. chris didn't even move. "Yes?" "What are you doing?" Both, the kid and adult, looked at each other and answered at the same time, their voices muffled by the food inside their mouths. "Nothing..." "Is that Abuela's tres leches?" Eddie's voice was getting softer and softer, the way it did when he wanted Christopher (and Buck... sometimes) to know that they screwed up, and that he knew they screwed up. However, he was still at the kitchen door, and they had a table in between them, so they still had a chance to escape from Eddie's rage. Or at least they hoped so.

"No..."

"Evan Buckley." "Hey-" the blonde turned around, forgetting the rest of cake in his mouth. "it was his idea!"

Christopher gasped. "No it wasn't!"

"Yes it was!"

Eddie laughed softly. "So you let a twelve-year-old tell you what to do?"

Buck opened his mouth, and closed it, and opened it again, but nothing came out of it. Chris, next to him, laughed heartily. "You're an idiot"

Both adults turned to the teenager (pre-teen, Eddie always remarked), gasping dramatically. "Perdón?"

"Yeah, excuse me? who are you calling an idiot?" Buck tried to look at Chris's eyes, but he was bolting from the room, and even if Eddie was at the door, he was too stunned to stop him. "Eddie!" he called me an idiot! He's not supposed to curse!"

I need people to understand that my hyperfixation ships are limited to one thing: a man who is usually in full control of himself meeting 1 woman and losing complete and utter control over absolutely everything he does.

I just like to watch when they go full feral for a woman who could literally chew them up and spit them out, but choses to let them stick around because I don't know, it's nice to have someone carrying their bag or whatever.

#red queen #mare did this twice over so she gets double points #this is why I adore Marecal #I am forever feral over the line: I will protect you as long as I can #AND: I thought of you in the end I saw your face in the water #THAT MAN IS RIDICULOUS FOR THAT. He did not need to go around re-inventing love #cause I mean... man was a full blood prince with “responsibilities” and he seriously fell apart over a woman who was 5'2“ #and dont even get me started On kanthony #I am unironically obsessed with the scene in the library and the line: AND IT IS NOT FAR ENOUGH #ridiculous that this man sniffed the air behind her as she walked by #like sir you are in HEAT stop it XD #and of course i could never forget about Delilah Bard and Kell Marsh #holy shit talk about a man with his life in order who met one woman and became so fucking smitten he spent a whole book low key crying #about her being gone and then getting stupidly excited over seeing her again #and then left his brother behind to go sail on a boat with her XD when she clearly only keeps him around for minimal purposes #I swear to god I went FERAL OVER “there is no where you can go” said the Antari to her prince “that I cannot follow” #SHUT UP she loves him so much😭😭😭😭😭😭 and she refused to admit it to him #a darker shade of magic #fragile threads of power

i keep seeing “it doesn’t matter if this post about anti semitism was made by a zionist, it’s still relevant” and i think this is a really deranged thing to say, but it’s a deranged thing that happens all the time so i guess it makes sense that people keep saying it. like, this was also a discussion when the crypto terf thing started going off, where people would say “it doesn’t matter if the op is a transmisogynist it’s a good post” but the op is specifically including trans women in their argument about male privilege which means their fundamental argument is incorrect and at odds with any and all feminist discussion!!! the same way that like, it doesn’t actually matter whether jackson hinkle is making a good point about palestine or not, he’s a far right anti semitic pos grifter and we should be blocking him any time he tries to engage because his fundamental argument is not “palestinians deserve a right to life, dignity, self determination, return, and safety” his argument is “the jews are controlling the media” a zionist will follow up their post about anti semitism with some shit like “i mean these leftists get mad when you call it the israel hamas WAR instead of a genocide, bc they’re anti semitic” while pictures of mutilated children’s corpses are being blasted all over my twitter feed. yes objectively anti semitism is on the rise, but that doesn’t mean you start platforming genocide deniers, sorry. there are plenty of people who don’t like, straight up refer to palestinians as rats that you can reference when discussing the rise in hate crimes!!

#it’s so exhausting to go on literally every website and watch people switch from doing a blood libel against like a random jewish person wh #has absolutely no ties to israel whatsoever to insisting that hind’s murder was a tragic accident. #or like bc rachel zegler liked a post that was like ‘save palestine save the hostages’ it means the year of death threats she got was #justified and nevermind she’s Been saying free palestine for several years. #i kno social media only processes world events through memes and i understand why that is but jfc #people are being wholesale slaughtered and you’ve got the most ghoulish people on the internet trying to get popular off it #and other people saying if u don’t reblog their ghoulish posts you’re a [insert anything here] #did medieval peasants discourse about the town crier like this. #like i need to know if this is a new thing that happened with the invention of the printing press & higher literacy rates or if medieval #peasants also dealt with the court jester trying to fundraise off a genocide happening somewhere else. #idk how people who were politically aware during the bush years didn’t lose their fucking minds bc i’m seriously at my limit

List 10 songs with 10 names in the titles that I like, and then tag 10 people.

thanks to @eponymiad for the tag, this was a fun one! I specifically forbade myself from including Jolene because it is probably the no. 1 answer to this prompt but for the record it was still the first song that came to mind.

in no particular order (but these have all seen a fair amount of play on my spotify over the years):

1. Jenny by The Mountain Goats

2. Brimful of Asha by Cornershop

3. Marlon Brando by Zeynep Bastık

4. MONTERO (Call Me By Your Name) by Lil Nas X

5. Django Jane by Janelle Monaé

6. Leyla Mecnun by Burak Bulut, Kurtuluş Kuş, and Mustafa Ceceli

7. Lake Marie by John Prine

8. Jackie’s Strength by Tori Amos

9. Abdo by Mashrou’ Leila

10. Athandwe (Hamba Wena). This is a viral gwijo song so idk who to credit, but I am losing my mind about this locker room video of the SA women’s football team singing it before their match with Sweden this week. If I’m understanding various translations correctly, Athandwe is the person the singer is addressing and half the internet is calling the song that, so I’m going to say it counts even if most of versions I have downloaded actually use the title Hamba Wena.

seeing people on tiktok really upset that people are quote unquote sexualising nuns by having well sexy nun ocs. like yeah duh of course they're being sexualised... What's going on here

#🐾 #like i'm sorry but they simply so do not look like actual nuns and you are inventing problems to make yourself mad 😭 #people will sexualise anything but nuns and nurses have been getting it since probably the conception of them #and sure i maybe get the ACTUAL criticism of ppl sexualising a person who is deliberately dressed modestly #but half tbe point is these ocs aren't ... actual nuns ... I SERIOUSLY DONT SEE THE PROBLEM HELP #clearly none of them are actual Christian Sisters or even wearing modest clothing so therefore it's not. a ''nun outfit''. oh my god #minors dni #also it's not comparable to anything else bc it just isn't.

There is no villain route there was never a time in fire emblem where we sided with evil character including conquests the point was to save nohr and go against their father the only outright villainous characters in three houses is the agarthans even rhea and seteth can be friendly and aren’t pure evil and do some good though rhea does need to be removed from power three houses and hopes has reinforced this that rhea was doing wrong like propagating crest system propaganda suppressing tech That cost people their lives withholding information like land development advice for faerghus which always had problems with food and land but only when rhea is taken in does she give advice to the king dimitri and when she could have given the advice for sooner azure gleam has the worst outcome for fodlan rhea hasn’t learnt anything and I roll my eyes at rhea apologists who try to claim she did nothing wrong when she had the game acknowledges she has and shows it

You know, reading this makes me think of a six years old who learnt the poetry he is supposed to recite by heart, and delivers it without pausing, in one breath, talking really really fast.

But it's not because you talk really really fast that no one hears your mistakes or blunders!

There is no villain route there was never a time in fire emblem where we sided with evil character including conquests the point was to save nohr and go against their father

Yep, never before Tru Piss did we have a Fire Emblem game where we sided with a "Lord" who was also the red Emperor, who sided with Izuka and made use of his Feral Ones.

Never before in Fire Emblem we sided with a Lord who invades countries to make theirs great again, or disses on a race calling it incapable of having human feelings.

To be honest, this is why I first picked Tru Piss in FE16, I wanted to see what IS was going to do, and, well, I received the rat scene and "uwu drawing" instead.

I was pretty disappointed.

the only outright villainous characters in three houses is the agarthans even rhea and seteth can be friendly and aren’t pure evil and do some good

The Agarthan, just like the Grima Cult (i forgot its name for all i care about it) is a modern take on the Loptyr cult and even Duma's faithful, where everyone belonging to that group is bad/evil, and responsible for "a majority" of things going bad in their respective worlds.

It sucks, and I really miss the FE5 Loptyr goons who are just "I was only there for money" or "sorry I promise I'll become good now" randoms.

Are you sure Rhea and Seteth can be friendly though? I mean, in the game, they are in charge of a giant orphanage and charity institution, I'm not sure it can be called something good.

though rhea does need to be removed from power three houses and hopes has reinforced this that rhea was doing wrong like propagating crest system propaganda suppressing tech

Damn I forgot the /s

Nopes reinforces that Rhea helps Supreme Leader when Supreme Leader asks for her help and Supreme Leader in turn wants to terminate her because she still has pointy ears. And Clout? Wants to get rid of her because "yolo", being stupid enough to think Supreme Leader will stop her war if Rhea disappears, on top of forgetting that the main responsible for Fodlan thinking Almyra sucks is Almyra itself.

Rhea does not propagate crust system, you see no pizzas in Garreg Mach.

And the Highest Member of the Knights, who later becomes Captain, isn't Thunder Catherine with her Major Charon Crest, no, it's Alois the Crestless average Joe.

As for suppressing tech, this is related to the meme from above, Rhea doesn't remove it, she lets human discover it at an "acceptable pace". Now, she is the one deciding what is "acceptable" from what is not, and it has a lot of questions and interrogations I'd love to discuss with someone who is at least able to use comas and dots.

That cost people their lives withholding information like land development advice for faerghus which always had problems with food

Ah, the famous "Rhea made people starve" take, I thought it was dead and long burried, but Nopes resurrected it!

Maybe you come from a country that has an imperialist history, or some kind of "interventionism", but generally speaking, when you are dealing with States, you do not "impart" them your "knowledge and civilisation" if they don't ask for it.

Does Rhea know about the Galatea food issues?

"She must" well no, because, Faerghus is its own sovereign state, and as shown by Matthias after the Miklan debacle, some people just don't like to ask for help for fear of being trapped later on. Faerghus isn't Garreg Mach's satellite state, no. Also, if Rhea, the Church, suddenly started to help Faerghus gain more grain and food, how would Adrestia and Leicester react? They do not receive the same "help" and, say, if Faerghus suddenly doesn't need to import Adrestian wheat or Leicester fruits, wouldn't they lose economically speaking?

Billy actually reveals what was Rhea, and the devs's solution about this issue : Rhea/The Church won't come to impart civilisation on people, but if they ask for help or even visit Garreg Mach - which is open to everyone - they will be directed to books which might help them.

So there is no "withholding" information, but rather putting it in the continent biggest library, accessible everyday by everyone, provided they don't come to the Monastery to kill its leader of inhabitants.

but only when rhea is taken in does she give advice to the king dimitri and when she could have given the advice for sooner

And yet Ingrid, if she can talk to Billy and spend time in school, can read a book about those issues and learn how to solve them.

Has Dimitri even asked her about his agricultural issues earlier? Have earlier Faerghus Kings asked her how to maximise their harvest before? I don't think so.

For all reasons explained above, Rhea cannot give advice on something unless she's asked about it.

She's not here out to bring civilisation to Faerghus and its people, she did it once for Adrestia and look at how it ended.

azure gleam has the worst outcome for fodlan rhea hasn’t learnt anything

Well, I disagree, Rhea learnt that she has allies and can rely on them again, without placing all of her hopes for a better future on Billy's shoulders because worshipping the player's joystick is that important in FE16.

roll my eyes at rhea apologists who try to claim she did nothing wrong when she had the game acknowledges she has and shows it

In France we have a saying that someone must roll their tongues seven times in their mouths before speaking else they'll speak shit - sometimes I wonder if the same saying can be applied for "typing" on the internet, but maybe if you roll your eyes enough you'll finally learn basic grammar?

I don't really know who you are vaguing about, but in a serious discussion/conversation, some people acknowledge that Rhea did "some things wrong". Context is important though, something that some devoted people on this website, but on social networks in general, elude because it requires to think a bit and not to give a "gut reaction" to the first 3 words they read.

The game acknowledges it... but forgets to tell what it was that she did was so wrong, what other path she could have walked and ultimately, what she is acknowledging - bar not seeing Billy as their own character, but as... something akin to her worthless Mother.

Rhea's wrongdoings are, oddly, never the ones she's derided for in the fandom, so maybe Rhea apologists ignore that part of the game, but they're not the only ones, her detractors too, ignore that part of the game.

And ultimately, as everyone pointed out after Nopes, FE16 was a game meant to make the player feel good, no matter their choices. The plot warped itself around this concept, and another concept which is as important if not more important : the need to sell Hresvelg Tea.

idk what's the matter with folks. knowing we have older women in fandom who are still creating art and fanfiction and edits, who are still creating and liking things even after decades on this earth of people telling them that women just ain't supposed to enjoy things brings me hope for a future in which capitalism and other folks' idiocy hasn't killed my need to create

Me thinking about my DND character when I’m alone: What if, in his desperation to get home to his kids, he decided he would really do anything to get to them? What if he succumbed to the ominous forces inhabiting his body, allowing them to take full control just cause they’ll give him the power he needs to see the ones he loves? What if he began to lose all sight of morals and what is right in his blind focus on getting back home? What if he turned to evil, what if he morphed into the campaign’s villain as his desperation became an obsession, fully consuming anything that was left of his old self?

My DND character last session: Spends the first 30 minutes feeling guilty about how he killed three horses in combat while attacking their owners. Tries to pet a horse but rolls badly on animal handling and takes 10 damage as the horse kicks him, and he just whispers to himself that he probably deserved it.

#as much as i like to invent angst and evil little AUs for him in my mind he's really just a stupid little dad who misses his kids #he is so good at missing things and not fully processing the seriousness of all the shit goin on with him. he's not evil just stupid #DND blorbo posts #decided i should start a tag for my posts about dnd cause i have enough now. that'll be the tag if i remember it #edited post for humor in the second part #this is what got removed from the end of that paragraph: #Nearly cries while he’s explaining to another character that he would never and does not want to hurt anyone or their souls with #Nearly cries while he’s explaining to another character that he would never and does not want to hurt anyone or their souls with the stolen #the stolen phylactery he was accidentally gifted and just wants to use it on himself to get back home.
