#she's just repressed the fuck out of it

[anthurak]

Okay, so here’s something VERY interesting about Ruby’s ‘Your mother said those words to me.’ breakdown in Volume 7 that I cannot believe took me until NOW to notice.

You know how Ruby’s Silver Eyes activate during this moment where she is very likely having some kind of flashback to some heavily repressed traumatic memories?

Well, let’s remember something we learned from Maria in the previous volume: The Silver Eyes will ONLY activate in the presence of Grimm. Now, we know that in the Battle for Haven, Ruby’s Silver Eye activation was in response to Cinder’s then-concealed grimm-arm.

But here? There are no Grimm in Ironwood’s office for Ruby’s Silver Eyes to react to!

Now, you could make the argument that Salem’s ghost-projection had enough grimm-material to trigger Ruby’s eyes. However, if that were the case then WHY is Salem’s projection clearly unaffected by the flash of Ruby’s eyes? Instead dissipating on its own some moments later.

No, I am almost certain that the silver eyes activation in this scene was entirely on Ruby and whatever she’s been repressing about her mom.

In other words, Ruby used her Silver Eyes all on her own, WITHOUT needing Grimm nearby. All thanks to something related to SUMMER.

(shoutout to @cosmokyrin​ for tipping me off to this detail :D Thanks!)

i cracked the code.

#believing dirk is the worst guy because its what dirk thinks of himself #ignoring daves bisexuality and think hes a gay man in denial even when he explained hes bisexual #believing john 'im not a homosexual' egbert is explicitly straight while he makes out with his mcconahey and cameron posters more #than he kissed women(literally only once) #believing that rose is an edgy psyhcotic little bitch when she was neglected. she speaks elegantly to cover that shes silly and a total ner #and how did people forget that rose also writes gay wizard fanfiction. reads Wikipedia. and her beautiful artstyle as a result of neglect #(and by neglect meaning having SO MUCH TIME to draw) #jake wasnt into dirk. he also told di that he didnt like how brobot getting touchy with him during strifes #but as part of the repression 4(prospit kids). he refused on changing the bot settings #what jane said about roxy being better when she was drunk. it was fucking sarcasm. its the least insane shit you could say to a best friend #all the kids have issues and of course people get mad over a girl being sarcastic. #when KARKAT said THE SAME THING to rose when she was drunk on the meteor nobody bats an eye #trolls are just grey humans that are bugs. he doesnt get an excuse for being an alien. humans were made from KARKATS BLOOD #jade isnt all silly girl and is so FULL OF HATE towards the trolls. she called karkat a fuckass (VERY FUNNY) to do her a favor #“jade would rather have punched karkat in the fact then had a pleasent conversation with him.” #“she viewed the trolls as rude mean and cruel. and even thought that nepeta was just making fun of her. #despite it being that nepeta just wanted to roleplay and have fun." #dred.loki #I HAVE YET TO ADD MORE. THESE ARE JUST NOTES #homestuck #chss

fundamentally i disagree with the notion that Jeff Knows Everything because he read shauna's journals. that implies not only that shauna wrote in detail about Everything that happened during those nineteen months but most crucially it implies shauna wouldn't be an unreliable narrator

#unless i see him say out loud what things he knows shauna did specifically and how she felt about it i just do not believe he Knows #his reaction when shauna took that gun last ep? his dumbass idea that shauna just wants an adventurous husband? #that man is entirely unaware #idk what and HOW shauna wrote in her diary but she's like ten hundred layers of repression and fucked up urges #just imagining her trying to write her lil fucked up diary out there is breaking my brain #yellowjackets spoilers #i guess for the gun thing mention in the tags #i'll eat my words if i'm wrong but i do not think Jeff Knows Everything. jeff has some idea #based on whatever distorted version of events he reads abt in shauna's diary #but yeah no i do not think this man Knows there i said it #yellowjackets blogging

Is Alt Peter also into the men’s? Or does he too have a fragile masculinity

oh he's into the mens – he definitely had johnny. (johnny storm is into the bad boys)

once upon a time i was writing an alternate ALTERNATE version of events where alt peter and harry osborn started sleazily hooking up, too. (alt peter, very grotesquely, works for norman osborn. harry and peter, undoubtably, inevitably, would have crossed paths and made immense hot eye sex and then fucked on the desks.)

its really kind of fun because - alt peter is kind of the inverse image of 9319 peter parker proper - where 9319 peter proper is repressed and timid and loses all control and becomes rageful and sex-crazed with harry - alt peter is a rageful sex-crazed freak who becomes scared and timid when with harry.

#joe jonas voice: oh how the tables have turned #maybe one day i'll finish writing this fic. #it's so funny because felicia ALSO works for oscorp a la tasm2 rules. #and harry watches peter and felicia at it on security cameras and is like “hm. i'll have what she's having.” #and he gets it and he's like “hm. this is not what i ordered.” #“what the fuck spider-man is a freak with felicia?? what did i just get. he was so tender. is he just not that into me??” #hilarious. harry brings out the freak in virgin spider-man. and brings out the virgin in freak spider-man. #it's harry osborn's job to bring out whatever it is that peter is repressing

slightly related note Angel is a stronger man than I bc if my ex best friend/almost lover who fucked my teenage kid said this to me and I had super strength we'd all get to see just how far Mrs Robinson can fly

#yknow how we get lost in the s4 Ideas and try to repress the Execution. #i genuinely forget how insufferable cordy is even before her villain reveal #just no fun at all all she does is be obnoxious and then tell everyone else that We Need To Figure This Out Guys #and amnesiac cordy is just the worst like that fucking scene where she asks angel if they were in love #and he's like i had feelings idk about you and she's like hm i probably thought you were a creep i bet you were harassing me like shut UPPP #FREE MY GIRL. #cordelia chase #angel #angel the series

I understand that the problem Linda would have in the hypothetical scenario where she catches Phineas and Ferb building some crazy shit is that its very dangerous for two kids to be caught up in something like that and it’s also just kinda an inconvenience like oh great now there’s this big ass roller coaster in the yard how the hell are we gonna clean this mess, I get it. But I just find it hard to believe that she wouldn’t be super impressed like my girl Linda loses her shit over the most mundane things so having her sons be these super geniuses capable of all this crazy shit would be awesome as hell she’d be proud

#the klock keeps ticking #THIS HAS JUST ALWAYS BOTHERED ME LIKE YOU. YOU HAVE SUPER GENIUS KIDS LINDA #i know a big point of the show is like how adults can be too wrapped up in minor shit that they ignore greatness #and just stifle kids creativity and imagination with their compulsive need to stick to the status quo #and in all the ‘what if’ episodes where the boys get busted theres always an intense focus on them being forced to deeply repress themselves #to fit into societys expectations of obedient children and theyre fucking miserable #but damn i just dont think Linda would be like that 😩 #like yeah shed be worried about safety but she wouldnt like make the boys repress themselves like that :((( #SURELY WE CAN WORK THIS OUT LINDA

there's just something inherently hysterical to me about toni doing her square-ass little prepared cheer routine meanwhile in fantasy filter land the lights dim and the beat drops as cheryl's looking at her like toni's an oasis and she's been crawling around the desert for days

#honestly the fact that the fantasy crush filter just fucking activates the second cheryl sees toni is even funnier #she is so down bad and im living for it #toni's just doing the most basic ass white bread go team go shit and cheryl's staring like toni's doing a damn strip tease #when toni tried out in the original timeline we pan down the line and honestly betty looks more turned on by toni that time #and thats mostly jest and cheryl clearly likes what she sees but 50's cheryl? #genuinely looks seconds away from pouncing or combusting #repression is a hell of a drug i guess #anyway makes me chuckle every damn time #cheryl blossom too gay to function #but not really she pulls it together admirably well *snorts* #choni #oh riverdale you precious beautiful compulsive piece of trash

i can’t gif but the way the doctor literally starts SHIELDING rose with his body (and frankly everyone else’s body he literally pushes her in the middle of the crowd) is making me feral

#this entire sequence actually #he’s like i can’t save any of these people but if there is one thing i’m gonna do #it’s get rose out alive #like even before they break into the house he comes downstairs #with one intention and one concern and it is rose #and then he never lets go of her hand #until pete turns up and like…we don’t have time to unpack All of That #but in an AU where rose isn’t so emotional over her parents and mickey #and they are already shagging. the doctor is ripping that waitress outfit off with his teeth when they’re back in the tardis #and whispering that he can’t lose her #i am just saying #these episodes are the actual turning point in ten's arc to me #the most human doctor repressing his emotions going up against humans with no emotions #and saying fuck it i choose PAIN i choose GRIEF. that is his turning point #that's why idiot's lantern is a straight up date and he loses it when she's not safe #but that is another post lol my bad #timepetals #doctor who #tenrose

today i had this Vivid memory flash through my mind of kissing my ex boyfriend (this was like 2018) and i felt so viscerally fucking revolted and I gotta say. it is truly impressive that I didn’t realise I’m a lesbian sooner than fucking half a year ago

#z talks #like the misidentifying as ace was Inevitable i think. that was due to repression that realising i didnt like men would not have fixed #(context: id’d as bi ace like. i wanna say 2016/17-2021/22 sometime and then went into ace and Questioning) #remember the time i really solidly settled on being aro because ‘romance has never not felt like a chore and putting on a facade’ #babe no thats because your most recent and also singular long term relationship was with a Man #and thats the only one youre looking back on #its so funny how i dated a guy and it was so thoroughly Meh that i just didnt feel like pursuing anything romantic for a very long time #(A REACTION I HAD NOT HAD AFTER MY PREVIOUS RELATIONSHIPS WITH GIRLS) #And DIDN’T somehow consider that maybe I just Didn’t Like Guys #its nothing i grieve or feel sad about dw its honestly mostly funny to look back on #no wrongs were committed and i dont hold a grudge against the guy it was just me being confused and compheted #(…which is also a weird word to apply because at the time i identified and was out to my friends as a trans guy Binary. #This Was Also Wrong.) #was a weird time man. a truly weird time #anyway. all is well i have now been on 2 dates with a really cute girl and she gave me tulips <3 #as part of a Care Delivery bc i had a Migraine and No Painkillers Or Snacks #get well flowers <333333 #and now i dream of kissing her under the moonlight #With the uh. Hornetposting lately it May seem unlikely but yes I DO interact with real women! Romantically! #They coexist Wonderfully <3 #Anyway. I’m gonna go to bed #Realising that im a lesbian solved all my identity problems including my fucking gender which is just fantastic #I am very happy and whenever I think of being a lesbian it grounds me to reality a little bit stronger and i go yeah. Yeah.

[princehugo]

they made Cleo a lesbian which is all I ever wanted but I can't even appreciate it because they handled it so fucking badly because this season's showrunners are allergic to having genuine authentic character moments that matter and I hate being upset but I AM

#seriously I started out with such low hopes then really liked the first couple eps so I rose my expectations and now the #latest episodes have been SO DISAPPOINTING. the last one was the absolute worst so far it was such a joke #i know this blog is for little kids shows but i dont have any friends and this is killing me and i just need to complain #'i hope they reboot your favorite series and make it woke and cringy': evil curse to bestow upon your enemies #like where the fuck did cleo liking frida even come from? literally out of nowhere. she hated frida and they had zero relationship growth #my heart belongs to cleo x joan but i would be open to this ship IF THEY ACTUALLY... HAD CHEMISTRY #it would have been so much better if they pushed the idea that cleo still kinda resented that frida was so popular #and her attraction stemmed from envy and other repressed emotions #also do you think a fucking teen girl from 2002 is going to decide woohoo im a homo without zero angst or guilt??? #FUCK THATTTTTT cleo absolutely called other girls dykes as an insult back then and now shes cool? fuck that fuck that fuck that #whatever. I hate living in 2023 #this is about clone high btw #topher was funny though I'll give it that

mike wheeler you better get vecna’d next season because holy shit you got baggage

#talking with yvie about mike’s unaddressed trauma repressed homosexuality and lying to the people he cares about due to being lost #its heartbreaking how he feels obligated to be with el ever since he lost el to the ud in s1 #how he has this unhealthy need to protect or *save.* #and if he doesnt have that he has nothing #we pointed out how he lost el once and almost did so many times and he felt like he couldnt do anything in any of those situations #and when he saw el almost dying *again* he felt like he had no choice but to break his most sacred oath. #he lied in the forms of the monologus #*monologue* #he wanted it to be true and he believed it was true enough. which he thought was enough to save her. #he just wants to keep her away from danger for once bc he feels obligated to save her everytime shes in danger #ever since she closed the gate when they were kids. that traumatized him so bad #he feels himself be on the same situatuon as always and he feels he’s the only one who can save people bc he thinks he HAS to #if he cant save the people he cares about then hes not good for anything. not worth anything. #fuck idk mN #byler

Thinking thoughts about alpha Robin again 🥰

#other #stposting #but like modern au where Robin lives in the big city for university #still dealing with some repression and internalized homophobia because she comes from a small town #but getting to uni is like a breath of fresh air #she feels free to be herself and explore what it is she wants #except she's super fucking dense when it comes to girls #girls who are actually very into her because Robin is hot and smart and tall and respectful in a way that makes them want to climb her like #a tree #she just can't tell when girls are interested??? #like even after she starts dating #she just thinks girls are being extremely polite/friendly #it makes Steve laugh and want to pull his hair out because how???? how is his best friend so smart adn so dumb at the same time #cue Nancy coming in and just trying so fucking hard and Robin is just NOT getting it #to the point where people think they're dating because Nancy is a little possessive and flirting shamelessly at this point #just romcom omegaverse when??? #Steve in the background watching Nancy fighting for her life and Robin clueless as ever #(she's clueless but pining lbr she fell for Nancy the day she met her) #(tiny little omega who is so so pretty and competent and smart and sure of herself and in charge? Robin was a goner) #omegaverse ronance #Alpha Robin Buckley #Omega Nancy Wheeler

being autistic -> 🫠

vent in tags

#im so fucking burnt out #its so frustrating bc according to my parents im 'high functioning' and 'shouldnt let my autism impact me that much' #beyond that being outdated like they didnt just slap an autism label on me for FUN. its bc i fucking have autism #so yes i have difficulties related to my autism. they dont understand and its so frustrating theyre always on my ass about things i CANT do #or struggle doing bc im autistic and burnt out and i hate this so much #and i called my mom out on it and she said 'well i didnt say you dont struggle just that it should be manageable' #okay but its fucking not??????? #like i stg they think my autism is JUST special interests and sensory issues. which its fucking not. #i struggle taking care of myself. i struggle interacting with people. i struggle with keeping up with things or switching between tasks #and dont even get me started on my DAD he doesnt even believe the doctors that im autistic #he compared my inability to understand social cues to wanting to be a bitch but being forced to repress it #like dude. when people perceive me as being a bitch its not bc im failing at hiding it #its bc i genuinely cant tell if my words or body language is coming across as bitchy even when i dont have any underlying resentment #he doesnt even think im autistic which is so frustrating #my mom begrudgingly accepts it but my dad thinks the LICENSED PROFESSIONALS are wrong #he hasn't done ANY research on autism EXCEPT to correct me when i say autism instead of autism spectrum disorder #which is also bullshit bc he and my mom use outdated terms like aspergers all the fucking time #(and ableist slurs) #im just so overwhelmed and i cant function #personal posts 😌✨️✨️

vivid image of astarion helping emrys out of her heavy armor. the plate separating the brush of fingers and the slow methodical process of it all combined with the visual metaphor of her laying down her guard with him. that's it really.

#what if you were my evil girlfriend who inadvertently crystallizes my fantasy catholic guilt crisis and brings it into full focus #like yeah she helps him heal etc etc but lawdy... he says things in such offhanded ways that hit her right in the brain in terms of how to #think about things. #almost always unintentionally but something something in helping him fight for his freedom she finds her own in a way #and her guard vs his are sooo... direct opposites. she is removed but accessible. open but repressed. #I doubt astarion's emotionally coherent enough to register it for most of the game. but I KNOW. and I SEE IT. #he tries to get under her skin in ways that simply won't work because she's Immune to slinky twink attitudes #but fairly charmed by the bullshit so it is allowed to pass. vs when he actually hits home being totally unaware to him #and to be fair I think it's the same vice versa... she just is so piercingly direct he can't really escape out of it #like ah fuck I tried to seduce you but actually you paid attention to the in between and now I have to ENDURE that #thinking about what the test of love scene would be like if he had to answer questions for HER....... ho boy. #oc. emrys #bg3 spoilers #ish
