What's something you always wanted to write into your Eleutherophobia fic that you just never had a spot for?

David. Love him as a character, even if I hate him as a person. But if I were to put him in the series, then:

This'd presumably have to involve him making some kind of deal with Crayak. And I don't want Crayak or the Ellimist in my fic.

The consequences for everyone's reputation would be massive and catastrophic. At minimum Rachel would get canceled by the internet. At maximum, the idea of charging all six kids with war crimes would suddenly be back on the table.

I have no idea what I'd do with him after the first scene or two of him interacting with the Berensons. Killing him would be inexcusable. But if he lives, he's going to do everything from rob banks to stalk Rachel to charge Jake with attempted murder.

Either he's no threat at all (because he's still stuck as a rat) or he's a life-ruining level of threat (because he's not stuck as a rat) to Jake. There is no in-between.

That said, I'd dearly love for him to interact with Tom at some point. Just long enough for them to get into a snake-measuring contest. And then for them both to discover that king cobras aren't cobras; king cobras are called that because they eat cobras for dinner.

My leucistic Texas rat snake, Dilbert, was so excited for dinner that he came flying out at it when I opened his enclosure and missed by about a mile. I tried to move his food to intercept his path and he ended up grazing me and catching two teeth in my thumb. Thankfully it was the side of my thumb, not the pad.

It didn't phase him at all, and he most likely didn't even notice.

I tried to be stoic but I did utter some choice words. I managed to get his meal into his mouth and him back into his cage before extracting these two snake thorns. Thankfully they're very smooth and came out easily.

Then not even ten minutes later Dextro the corn snake, who it turns out is starting a shed cycle and has reduced vision, jumped past the meal held by my feeding tongs and grabbed my finger and thumb together in a huge bite. He wrapped my entire hand and my tongs, so I couldn't reach his head to tap him or help him disconnect. My middle finger and thumb were pinched together and pierced by two rows of tiny, very sharp needles. He realized his mistake and voluntarily let go after an excruciating 15-20 seconds of me trying to hold very still. At least he had the decency to look embarrassed. He then went back in his enclosure and poked his actual dinner with his nose very thoroughly all over to make sure it was really food and not still my hand before eating it.

My point is that it doesn't matter how much we trust these animals or how well socialized they are. Accidents happen. It's not their fault and I can't be mad at them or even at myself. Anyone who keeps a snake shouldn't ask whether they'll be bitten, but when.

It's just a part of snake keeping!

Hi there! I have a myth about spitting cobras for you. My friend's dad believes that if you get spitting cobra venom on your skin, it causes a ton of itchiness and scratching the affected area can cause envenomation. Have you ever come across this belief before? Is there ever a situation where venom on the skin would cause irritation? Where do you think this myth came from?

That's a common belief in areas where spitting cobras live!

It's also really not true at all. They aim for your eyes for a reason - that's where the venom can actually cause damage. Otherwise, it can only hurt you if it's injected via a bite (unless, of course, you have open wounds or sores on your skin). I've gotten spitting cobra venom on my skin plenty of times; I know from experience it can't hurt you.

Being a part of the small percentage of people who can shoot spit out of their mouth involuntarily is not as cool as it sounds on paper.

“It wasn’t really Namor’s fault that Ramonda died” IT WAS. IT WAS. WHY ARE YOU TRYING TO TAKE THIS AWAY? I’M SORRY IF YOU CAN’T STOMACH NAMOR NOT BEING PERFECT BUT PLEASE STOP. For fucks sake, it was by HIS HAND the queen died! Yeah there were outside factors pushing Wakanda and Talokan towards conflict but stop trying to erase the fact he has and would kill people!

#i hate you mcu fandom i hate your stupid namor is a symbol for a wet dick bc he is a serpent and serpents are one eyed snake symbols #i hate your stupid apologism for actions that were clearly done in character just bc you wanna ship the main leads #i hate your hades and persephone attachment to this or making namor the beast to shuri's beauty #i hate every single time you compare namor to mcu wendy and i hate when namor/shuri is compared to reylo #i hate your x reader fics where namor is used as a dick on legs and constantly sexualized for the white fans in the grossest way #i hate your cold as fuck takes on my beloved characters that makes me want to spit in disgust!!! #I am slamming the doors on fandom and locking it behind me because I do not want to interact with any mcu namor fans who act this way #rant has been building up slowly these last few months i just hate that my once fun space is filled with absolutely tone deaf morons #anti mcu fandom

Tired and on a train right now but im thinking about raiden sooo much. I love mgs2 its a horror trans allegory to me

Raiden is so transfem imo. Shes been forced into this masculine roll her whole life and it comes to a head in mgs2 when shes placed in the huge role of solid snake. Now snake himself doesn’t even embody this huge macho persona hes made out to be. “The perfect soldier” solidified by shadow moses and only “corrupted afterwards. Raiden is forced to take on this overwhelming masculine role, a test subject meant to be the next generation of unstoppable strong men.

Raiden’s story is one of a struggle with self identity and being able to live a life for himself, and this can be read trans or cis, but its so so interesting for me to read it as trans. Going along with the headcanon that solid snake is transmasc, taking control of his genes as “the failed twin” and forging his own life; his speech to raiden at the end of mgs2 feels like an older trans person giving advice to someone who hasn’t realized themself yet. Live your own life, find out who you are, we dont determine what the next generation is all we can do is bring them into a better more understanding world. Dont try to be me and dont let them force you to be me. Its ok to not be masculine. (Sidenote this speech and the one at the end of mgs1 is what makes mgs4 so out of place and terrible but thats another conversation)

Anyway long story short i really love raiden as transfem. I think it fits well with her storyline, making her own identity, and breaking away from this deadly masculine roll shes been forced into her whole life.

Wrapping back around to mgs2 being a horror game to me, it feels like the culmination of a psychological horror story. Cant site specifics rn cause i havent been through the whole game in a while, but raidens story feels like a constant disconnect of identity (for trans and trauma reasons). Mgs2 is a scheme created specifically to shatter Raiden into the mold they want for her. Psychological horror meant to make her question her personality, her reality, and her choices. That can be used as a very good allegory to going through the most internally violent depressive depersonalization period before coming to terms with your identity.

Setting aside the rest of her story for a minute, i think after mgs2 she takes a little while to figure herself out. She was already a little femmy before and doesnt change much. Imo shes transfem nonbinary specifically. I think she prefers to be a bit androgynous it makes her feel good. But she gets more comfortable with openly wearing more fem stuff, and allowing herself to be more vunerable with herself and others. She gets happier :) she figures it out

#sorry just spitting out words rn #train thoughts yknow #my post #i just. augh. grips the hell out of her #mgs2 #raiden mgs #love to put main tags on stuff like this everybody look at my posts now #and to that anon that asked why i think raiden is transfem #you couldve been genuine but you also sounded offended by that #well heres your explanation of my thoughts but fuck you she can be #slaps metal gear this puppy is so full of trans people #dont get me started on transfem kaz as well #and as mentioned in this solid snake is so fucking trans bro #diary

fun fact about Theseus' dad (Aegeus) is that he was an adopted son of Athens' previous king, but was the favourite and oldest son and got to take the throne despite technically having no Athenian royal blood 😱

Later when King Theseus is gone for awhile (trapped in the underworld (long story)) his cousin Menestheus takes the throne- some Athenian nobility had been trying to get Menestheus on the throne for years, because unlike Theseus he is a direct descendant of Erichthonius (the first king of Athens)

#📜 muse's voice #👑 the once and future king (theseus) #Erichthonius was the first king of Athens but Theseus was the first king of a unified Attica for clarification #Fun fact about Erichthonius: the earth spit him up and Athena raised him. He's human on top snake on bottom

You’d think spitting venom would be inefficient. Unless spitting cobras have an acidic venom or it can seep through animal/human skin.

Nah they've evolved specifically to aim for your eyes. Their aim is actually pretty excellent, too. You have to wear goggles when you work with them because their venom can cause a lot of pain and even blindness if it gets in your eyes.
