#something el gee bee tee just happened to me
Note
Now hold on a gosh-diddly-darn minute, I noticed the entire time talking about a tipsy Peppino no one thought to ask this but what about tipsy GUS? I mean we saw him a li'l tipsy in the fastfood saloon escape, can I hear your thoughts about that/him please? Have they ever gotten tipsy together?
(I just like the mental image of the two alone, just being real giggly with each other (Gus just says "hey" and Peppi starts giggling which sets Gus off giggling) and being sappy goofs with each other <3)
HEEHEE u are so right and i am so sorry for withholding this information from the masses 😭
My homebrew for gnomes is that they are simultaneously hardy folk (able to eat virtually anything and immune to most poisonous creatures) AND extremely intolerant of alcohol. Theres no reason for that, i just like it alot :)
So Gus would be an extreme lightweight 😭 its SO bad; he cant speak clearly at all, he cant walk straight, he has the Worst hangovers and he wont remember anything from the previous night. The line between ‘pleasantly buzzed’ and ‘blackout drunk’ is so thin that Gus doesnt even try social drinking. If he MUST drink, it will be in the comfort of his own barebones apartment 😭 at least, until Peppino started hanging out with vigilante and his crew.
Gustavo LIKES drinking! Its just hard to find a good balance, and THATS bc he simply doesnt know how alcohol works. Peppino is like:
“Look ‘ere. All of these have a number somewhere on the bottle. Or a percentage. Lower the number, the better it is for you.”
Gustavo is like !!! Oh!!! That is very helpful! What would you recommend for me then?
“Probably…2-5%. 5-10 proof. Small 'a numbers.”
Gustavo nods, interested. He points at a bottle he recognizes from the last time he came here and got shitfaced. “That one up there; do you know how ‘a strong that one is? Or should i ask the bartender?”
Peppino squints at the company label. “45%.”
“Oh!” That makes sense. “Well what do you usually drink?”
“70%.”
“Oh!”
Peppino recommends some of the LIGHT light wines, the ones that barely have a hint of anything. Theyre sweet (which Gustavo loves so very very much) and for the first time in a very long time, he Stays buzzed instead of immediately faceplanting into being blackout drunk.
Hes very. Playful. Is what Peppino would describe a tipsy Gustavo. He hesitates to use the term ‘flirty’ because that is not whats happening. But hes like. Clearly entertaining some gruff looking men like five times his size as they ramble drunkenly about random shit like ‘waow….thasso cool…and then what happened???’
Its funny at first bc Gustavo is so fucking TINY that all you can see of him, in the group of men as they yapyapyap about some inane shit that Gustavo wont even remember, is his tiny little tail 😭 It is less funny, however, when Peppino catches himself rambling about work and Gustavo is like (ears perked; tail swaying) ‘mmhmm. wrow…thats ‘a kinda nice…what else did you do??’ Peppino is like *buffering* (‘something is happening right now that will need to be addressed at a later time. Do not forget DO NOT FORGET. URGENT!!!!’)
Otherwise Gustavo is just a silly guy. Vigilante will make a joke and he laughs so low and deep that he sounds downright villainous 😭 Peppino will point out something stupid on the TV and like hours later Gus is like ‘…heeeuehuuueee…..do u remember [insert stupid reference] and Peppino will giggle. Peppinos affinity for throwing around ilus are met with Gustavo going ‘😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊’ with absolutely no way to even pretend to mask it.
Gustavo has fun being out in the saloon but he really enjoys drinking in Peppinos house. Its not nearly as loud as the saloon and theres usually homecooked foods like breads and soups (Because Peppino stress-cooks ALL the time). Brick gets to stay indoors instead of waiting outside the saloon, so Gustavo gets to mess with his soft fur contentedly. He just gets to be cozy; its quite nice 😊
#answered#chattin#///#////#/////#gustavo#peppino#pepstavo#alcohol#drinking#i still have to answer that anon asking about pepstavo hcs so i hope this helps a little fhjdbdjdndkd#additional context is that; gnomes stay mostly in the forest. so theres not alot of outsider influence#gustavos a bit of a traveller; he likes exploring and seeing whats outside the forest. and he usually comes back with goodies#alcohol is just one of those things he tried during a trip or two and it always fucked him up#never looked into it; some shit is best left alone lmao#unrelated to that#but the alt though that peppino had; i was going to say (something el gee bee tee is happening…)#which made me laugh but i cant make him say stuff like that fhdjbdjdjdjd#also note that Gustavo does not drink often at all; he will accompany peppino to the saloon and let him get tipsy w his friends#he will entertain their silly shenanigans and bring Peppino home when theyre done#and if hes hanging out at peppinos house he will lounge around listening to peppino blabber about nothing#and drink some ciders :)#he only drinks like. 10% of the time. hes a social drinker but ONLY when he feels like it#and ONLY if peppino is with him#ALSO ALSO#IMPORTANT#you must know that Gustavo is NEVER sitting while in the saloon#he is standing on his barstool w his hands on the countertop

me: it's completely unrealistic for people to develop intense romantic feelings with each other during these outbreaks, and that's why most re ships fall flat for me. these people don't even know each other.
also me: there was something yuri-licious going on between rain and alice in the less than 3 hours they knew each other
#speakerphone!#its differenr with them i swearrrrrr#you just gotta trust meeeeeee#believe me believe me believe me#i mean. i most certainly dont believe they were in love.#and both are quite desperate to finish the job with their lives#but if they had more time... i know... i know something el gee bee tee would have happened between them.#ik rain comes back in the next one but im really putting that one off.#its also the ada movie and. idk they can butcher anyone else and i wont care... but ada? nay...

one video game site describing the game's premise:
"In the trailer, Harker was perceived as a much more efficient and courageous vampire hunter, as opposed to the classic portrayal of Jonathan Harker in Bram Stoker’s books and films, including Dracula."
sir... sir... he literally killed dracula in the book...
You know.
I think this broke me just a little more. My camel back was already broken under so many straws, but I think this one made me collapse back in on myself.
So.
There's a lot to be said about the inspirational power of great works of media. Stories and masterpieces that spur wonder, love, and awe. The ones that give you a goal to aspire to in your own creative endeavors. The strive to match up to something great can do a lot.
But I'll tell you, friend. There is nothing quite as empowering as pure, unbridled spite. Just full-on loathing for every piece of half-assed, fan fictionified, self insert-riddled, character-botching, absolute shrug of a creative work that tries to hide under the disguise of a public domain title to cover for its inadequacies, and not only getting away with it because so much of the audience hasn't read the book, not only profiting off of it, but leaving a nigh irremovable stain on the entire pop cultural mind that is so hugely, categorically, monstrously Wrong, that the 'understanding' of the book and its characters is treated as offhand. Because 'everyone knows' it.
"Sure! Everyone knows Jonathan Harker doesn't have any real vampire hunting experience! That's all Van Helsing's shtick, what with him being the very definite for-real nemesis of Dracula, ha ha! Nice of these video game people to give the little guy a shot, eh?"
Just. Wow.
I am ready to make so, so much Jonathan Harker shit. Barking Harker? Sure. Absolutely. Doc's open right now. But maybe I'll do more. Love is my kindling, but bile is the fuel on the fire.
I can do Jonathan Harker as the Superior Dracula, complete with ripping Coppola's reincarnation love interest gimmick out his asshole and doing the Romantic Dracula Trope real justice. Why? BECAUSE IT'S ACTUALLY JONATHAN AND JONATHAN CAN PULL OFF THE WHITE-HAIRED PINING UNDEAD ROLE BETTER. How about that?
How about I make a whole ass script and screenplay for a Dracula series actually in line with the book? No creative license! No Dracula-wolf sex scenes or cheating fiancees or jealous suitors or dodging the el gee bee tee edges or turning Van Helsing into an anime man who saves the day! Just actual events that actually happened in the 125-year-old book that every modern adaptation is too cis-straight-scared to do! How about that?
How about I eat the heart out of every single Van Helsing-centric Monster Hunter series and anime and make it all about the Harkers, their friends, and/or their descendants? How about that?
How about the Harkers getting an eternal vampiric honeymoon after the Transylvanian trip goes bloodily south and they just go about their undead business forever and Dracula is nothing but a footnote in their story which he always was anyway? How about that?
HOW ABOUT I FLOOD THE WORLD WITH DRACULA CONTENT WHERE DRACULA IS NO MORE OR LESS THAN THE SADISTIC VILLAIN HE'S ALWAYS BEEN AND GETS HIS ASS KICKED AND HEAD CHOPPED LIKE THE LOSER BASTARD DESERVES???
HOW ABOUT THAT????
I WILL LIVE TO SEE A WORLD THAT REGISTERS EXACTLY HOW BADASS JONATHAN HARKER AND ALL OF THE HUMAN CAST IS, A WORLD THAT SEES DRACULA FOR THE UNDEAD UNDERWEAR STAIN HE ALWAYS WAS,
FOR I WILL CRAFT THAT WORLD MYSELF UPON THE BONES AND BLOOD OF THE INFINITE BASTARDIZATIONS THAT CAME BEFORE THEM!
I SHALL NOT SUFFER THESE ICE-COLD 'lol no I never touched the book but I kinda remember the wiki for the Coppola movie' TAKES FOR ALL ETERNITY. I WILL REWRITE THE PUBLIC OSMOSIS UNTIL ALL THEY KNOW OF DRACULA IS THAT JONATHAN HARKER KILLED HIM IN HIS DIRT BOX.
Anyway.
To all my Dracula Dailiers out there. I say again. Join me. While our little book club did wonders, the fact is, not a ton of people are going to ever bother with the dusty old novel. Spinoffs and sequels? Sure. But not (what they assume is) a dry old classic. Which leaves audiences and filmmakers caught in a perpetual profit and expectation-based loop.
People assume Dracula is Sexy-Suave Count Fuckula and that Mina hooks up with him while Van Helsing and [INSERT HUMAN NOBODIES HERE] are pushed to the sidelines. So that's what directors will keep churning out. Ditto for makers of books, comics, shows, and video games. It will just keep going in the same rut.
Unless we put some new blood out there. There are so many possibilities. So much that can be made to finally drag the spotlight away from the Count and give it back to the characters who deserve it.
So please. Please. Make that Dracula-derived thing you're unsure about. Even at its most indulgent and outlandish, you have read the book. And you know more about what you're doing than literally any so-called professional who's churned out their tired knockoffs of knockoffs. (Or the folks who take their opinions from the same.)

Tiny little thing I'll probably never finish
The Cat
Guillermo sighed happily feeling the hot water on his back. He had planned to take a relaxing shower, maybe moisturize his hair, define the curls he was letting grow a little… All in all he was planning on not dealing with vampire bullshit. It was too innocence of his part to believe he would manage that.
“GUILLERMO! GUILLERMO COME, QUICK!” Nandor screamed, banging the entrance door close. Guillermo felt his heart exploding, he wrapped himself in his towel, almost falling with his face on the floor, grabbed a stake in the drawer and runned to the fancy room. Runned gracefully, not at all slipping all over the place.
“What?! What happened?” He asked, one hand branding the stake, the other holding the towel. He hoped it wasn't the werewolves again, it would be annoying to fight the werewolves naked, the fur sticks to the blood, it's a mess.
“Look!” Nandor smiled, sitting cross legged on the floor. And then Guillermo noticed he was holding a thing, lifting it up for Guillermo to see.
“What's this?”
“It's a cat, Guillermo.”
“Yeah, I know it's a cat. Why is the cat here?”
“Because I brought her. Look at her! She's so tiny!”
Nandor cradled the kitten again, petting it's head. Guillermo would not think it's cute, not after Nandor destroyed his relaxing not-dealing-with-vampire-bullshit evening.
“Nandor you can't just bring a cat inside!”
“Why not?!”
Guillermo cleaned his throat.
“Well it can be a vampire.”
“She's not a vampire, Guillermo. She's a cat.”
“It can be a vampire-cat.”
“She's just a cat-cat.”
“You can't be sure of that. What if it's an assassin trying to make you lower your guard and then kill you?” Guillermo put his hands on his waist. Nandor lifted a brow at him, not buying it at all. “Everytime there's an animal inside this house something bad happens.”
“Oh, really? List one time an animal was inside this house and something bad happened.”
“Well there was the squirrel-”
“What squirrel?”
“Shut up, let me talk.” Nandor opened his mouth to reprime Guillermo for his lack of respect, but decided to not argue with him. It had nothing to do with the fiery stare Guillermo sent him. “Well there was the squirrel that actually was a vampire assassin. There was Black Pete the goat. There was the raccoons I had to steal rabies shots from the veterinary clinic-”
“I did the worst part-”
“You killed the veterinarian, I had to find the right shots and vaccinate the raccoons without getting rabies myself!” Nandor rolled his eyes. “There was the crows-”
“They were just bringing messages! They're good workers!”
“And they shit a lot!”
“It's good for the soil!”
“The roof is not soil, Nandor!”
“Whatever! Bella is staying!” Nandor said, hugging the cat against his chest, definitely not pouting. He wasn't pouting at all.
“Don't call it Bella.”
“Don't you think she looks like a Bella?”
“She does look a little bit like- No! You don't even know if it's female!”
“Don't disrespect her gender identity, Guillermo. This isn't very el-bee-gee-tee friendly of you.”
Guillermo opened his mouth to argue, but decided against it and just sighed.
“You know what? Fine. Keep your vampire-cat. But if it kills you I'll kill you!”
“If she kills me I'll be dead! You can't kill me if I'm dead!”
“I'll find a way!”
“Fine!” Nandor said.
“Fine!” Guillermo responded.
“Fine!” Nandor said while Guillermo turned to leave the room. Then Guillermo turned to face Nandor again.
“Oh, and don't ask me for help taking care of her. You'll buy her food, and clean her litter box, and brush her fur and whatever!”
“Fine! I don't need your help!”
“Fine!”
“Fine!”
Guillermo banged the door behind him. And then opened it again.
“And you will tell Nadja about her!”
“Fine! Actually Guillermo, can you go talk to Nadja with me?”
Guillermo does went to talk to Nadja with Nandor after a not super relaxing bath (no moisturizing and curl defining for him). Well, he wasn't going to advocate for the cat, but if Nadja killed Nandor he wouldn't be able to kill Nandor after the cat kills him, so it's more about Nandor than about the cat, really.
The cute little black eyes and the cute teeny little black beans wouldn't change his mind. He wasn't falling a little bit in love with Bella, not even when she started to make biscuits in Nandor's beard and it made him giggle and it was the sweetest sound he ever heard.
He wouldn't need to deal with his not love for the kitten for too long, though, because Nadja would never let the kitten stay so he would only need to deal with a crying Nandor for a bit until he moved into his next thing.
“Oh, hello little girl! Look at how sweet you are!” Nadja cooed over the kitten the moment Nandor showed her. She booped the cat's nose with her long nails and laughed when it tried to bite her. “What's her name?”
“It's Bella.”
“Oh, sweet little Bella! Just like Twilight!” Nadja said, at the same time Nandor said “Just like Twilight!”
Guillermo was starting to think he was losing this battle.

hi sorry to bother you but do you have any advice on how to make friends in your 20s? seeing you happy and enjoying your friendship group is so good and wholesome and everything i kind of want out of my life lol <3 any advice appreciated!
aw this is so nice!!!
i mean the biggest impetus for me was moving to a new city where i knew literally not a single person and then living alone in said city, so i had no choice but to go out and meet people like there was nothing else i could do. and i will say it has been really hard, particularly as i work full-time and study part-time, and have been recovering from some Stuff that happened in 2020, and even now it's sometimes A Lot because it does take me a solid 5 years of knowing someone before I'm like Yes Okay We Are For Real Friends And I Can Be Myself With You lol. but it has also been really gratifying and i do always recommend getting out there and connecting w people irl!!!
i obviously don't know what you're situation is or how much it aligns w my experience but with that said here are my Top Tips:
apps. when i first moved i met most people my age through Bumble BFF which is a bit cringe and awkward but it was a great starting point, it basically kick-started my entire social life bc you know that the people on it are ALSO actively looking for friends (literally the first person i met was so invested that they threw loads of networking events for everyone they had met and started a groupchat and i met a lot of people that way). also tinder lmao the two people i talk to/hang out with most are both people i met on tinder it's a great way to specifically roll with the el gee bee tees
clubs/societies. personally i find clubs really hard to commit to (see the work/uni time commitment lol i just get too tired) but the thing to remember is you don't have to do them forever. i joined all sorts of groups for a few months, and then when there were people there i really liked (who i knew shared an interest in whatever thing it was) i just stayed in contact with them. and then obviously if you really like a group you can keep doing it (i still do theatre and LOVE literally everyone there). these groups are good as well because they really cultivate Local Community investment in particular and i think it's important to interact w people from different backgrounds/age groups you wouldn't necessarily be Friends with but like they ARE your local community
community centres/local businesses. like that tiktok that says about Just Show Up Somewhere Regularly, like this could be going to your favourite coffee shop/community space and then just keeping an eye out for who else is always there at the same time as you, but ALSO could be more active than that. most of my main friend group are big contributors to the local queer arts scene and organise events w the local arts centre/pubs/etc so don't be afraid to ask your local institutions what's going on or if you can volunteer. again i think actively investing in local community is really key here and provides you a wide net to rely on and full of more individuals you can meet one-on-one
group chats are your friend. i love a groupchat these days i used to hate friendship groups in school bc it was so cliquey and required so much maintenance and ive always preferred hanging out with people one-on-one (still do) but now im in sooo many groupchats and it's nice if i have a free evening and feel like doing something and i can just post 'hey is anyone free' and then people r free and sometimes they will bring people THEY know and then i meet more people.
reddit. was not expecting this to be a thing and i only had an account for a very short while but my city's subreddit was SO useful when i first moved for finding out about events/clubs that weren't advertised elsewhere and getting local insider info. i personally didn't meet anyone this way but i know they did organise meet-ups and have a CITY DISCORD SERVER so that may work for u if your city has something like that lmao
be open to making friends. with the above said as ways to meet people u have to be willing to actually make friends with people!! in my town instagram seems to be the main way to low-committal connect w people so i made a public account and now whenever i meet the vaguest stranger at an event who seems cool im like oh yeah let's follow each other lol. say yes when people invite you places and be willing to invite other people to hang out if you think you would be friends! a good way to bridge the gap between Acquaintances and Friends is to tell the acquaintance abt something you're doing anyway so then it's no pressure. like if you're part of a local group (see point 2) or going to an event (see point 3) just be like 'oh I'll be at this thing maybe see you there!' and then if they are there you can talk to them more and if you do this enough times you are now friends. or just in general be willing to (casually) do nice things for people even if it might seem a bit weird like when I got new neighbours i put my phone number through their letterbox in case they needed anything i got someone i didn't know That well a gift just because it was something specific they'd been talking about i thought they would like i saw someone on instagram say they loved handwritten letters so i asked if they minded sharing their address - as long as you're polite and not pushy about it and don't mind if people just ignore it then it's nice!
cast a wide net. as u may have noted from the above points lol i think it mostly comes down to meeting EVERYONE and being open to EVERYTHING and not putting too much pressure on anything or anyone in particular so that you will just organically get closer with the people you're supposed to get close with and nothing is forced. its great to find your Platonic Soulmate or w/e but you do also just need a certain base level of socialisation and u gotta work with what you have. if you just assume that most human beings you interact with on a day to day basis are kind people with good intentions not only does life feel a lot easier but it's easier to remember that you are just Someone Who Lives In A Place and so are they and it's all fine.
think about people you already know. obviously it's great when you really Click with someone and meeting new people is refreshing and interesting but is there anyone you already know nearby who you've never been Friends friends with but you get on and could see yourself being friends if you actually invested time in it? reach out!! i think this is esp good bc as much as personality is a factor in friends never underestimate the power of just Knowing Their Name For A Long Time lmao. shared reference points in your history are huge even if you didn't actually talk to them at the time those reference points happened.
still take time for yourself. obviously the above takes a lot of time and energy and emotional effort and it's taken me over a year to get to the point that im at. sometimes it's really hard because i will have plans literally every day of the week and ive met so many people i COULD be friends with and then i feel guilty bc i haven't seen X person for three months lol. but i think it's nice to know that you COULD meet up with someone and invest in any one of those friendships you have but instead you are going to Choose to spend the weekend by yourself bc you are an individual WITHIN this large web of interconnected people and u still exist the whole time. like at the end of the day i am still in fact an introvert and when im with people i don't know that well i still mask a lot so i do need to take time to be by myself sometimes! and everyone is fine w that !
#i hope this is like. readable. sorry for block text.#idk if this makes sense or is applicable but this has been my experience!#sorry its long if u have any more qs just ask!!

"something lgbt just happened to me today" well what about tomorrow? in a month? a year? ten years? here, we can teach you how to invest. we can teach you how to be your own start up, where the "E" in El Gee Bee Tee stands for Entrepreneur.

mister impossible live thoughts!!!!
my journey of reading this book lasted from sunday afternoon through monday evening with a sleep and work shift in between. notes taken on my phone are under the read more, these are silly and hold very little context and even less intentional analysis. no thoughts head empty, truly
so they really are zeds because of zzzzzz
alf was right bryde has just been called dad so he is unfortunately in the category of dilf. devastating
hennessy calling bryde a dandy and ronan not liking the word
(also wow who is bryde supposed to be, morally ambiguous gansey?)
BURRITO THE CAR?
i am stunned by ronan’s anxiety manifesting as “imagining dying before adam who then falls in love with someone else so that in heaven (if adam goes to heaven, in question only because adam is agnostic) adam has to split his time between ronan and his hypothetical second love” like. dude. also him thinking of this adam as a widower, as if ronan was a 35 year old and married instead of the 19 year old in their first relationship that he actually is
“balls,” ronan hissed, annoyed to have been startled. “tits,” added hennessy. THEM.
please don’t say masturbatory, bryde. i already don’t trust you i don’t need to see you as gross
i will not add to the hennessy enthusiastic clone fucker debate.
every time i read one of these books i’m reminded how charming i find maggie’s writing to be. “the haystack has not produced a needle thus far.”
jordan stole declan’s volvo. everyone say it with me: girl. boss.
holy shit!!!!!!! the painting the “dependents” the line “the rules of the game had changed”!!!!!!!
“the dream creatures seemed to have somehow divined that declan was the person least likely to enjoy them and therefore the most desirable to woo” scream!!
ronan being uneasy about something bryde so willingly creates and uses smells like foreshadowing
“your balls really are nifty things,” hennessy said. “love to get my hands on them.” girl.
HENNESSY SAID I WAS A SINNER FINDING PLEASURE IN WINE, WOMEN, SONG. GIRL?
el gee bee tee
if she was referencing something don’t tell me i don’t want to know
hennessy i am obsessed with you. she said is adam one of those soft boys who hide in the firm pecs of their scary partners
i do not like bryde so much. bad vibes you weirdo saying ronan, a 19 year old orphan, is “looking in the rearview mirror” for wanting to be in contact with his family
ronan “mimicking his old friend gansey’s southern accent” it’s missing the gangsey hours
bryde get ready to fight me in a cage match
oh i love the brothers lynch
hennessy is so funny. she’s right pennsylvania sucks
oh reference to ronan’s discomfort with old people. think that gem is from...tdt?
rhiannon just called ronan darling 🥺
“this was the strangest part of the oldest liliana—she remembered a lot of what she’d already lived through, and a lot of that seemed to involve farooq-lane.” LESBIANS
WE’RE THE VILLAINS, FAROOQ-LANE THOUGHT. i had to COVER MY FACE. my GIRL. PLEASE. YEAH.
my god that was a good chapter
ADAM TAROT READINGS STOP. LOVE
“ronan felt hennessy shiver. he leaned his skull against her skull, and without pause or snark, she leaned back.” oh i love them.
are the dreamers three about to nosedive into eco terrorism
ronan thinking “she was going to leave them” is so. gansey. i miss gansey.
carmen and liliana i love you. el gee bee tee
what year is this set in? early 2013? 2014? i’m pretty sure trk was the 2011-2012 school year or the next. anyways, hennessy just referenced tiktok, an app that certainly does not exist yet in their world
i am not capable of sussing out what bryde is or what his goal is here. someone tell me
adam. oh adam. please call gansey you need an outlet for all of...that. all the hacking into government databases to access information gathered about the boyfriend you haven’t talked to in months. please call your friends
title mention page 234
man the whole three secrets thing in tdt feels a lot less fun now that we’re getting insight to a toddler ronan being told by his mother that he had to keep his dreams a secret forever :/
GRUMPY LUST, DECLAN’S BEDROOM
matthew said are you going to marry my brother 😩
DECLAN SAID BY THE TIME WE’RE MARRIED THE LYNCH BOYS ARE OUT OF THEIR MINDS
ashley ashleigh ashlee
what does “neat, civilized facial hair” look like on declan. floored by this
declan said ronan idolized gansey in high school :( he’s right but i miss gansey
WE ALL FINALLY FOUND EACH OTHER. OKAY GIRL BOSSES
(el gee bee tee)
i hate you chapter 33. very sad about this book.
is it ironic that i, tumblr user greenmantle, am upset about bryde being manipulative and harming ronan in ways that ronan cannot recognize. probably. that’s fine though
received these series of texts from my best friend while i was working:
lots of things i’m already loving about chapter 34, like the recognition that i cannot imagine a young woman feeling less comfortable in any situation than with ronan and his new hero, and the fact that during hennessy’s pov she thinks about carmen and liliana: “it was also clear they had crushes on each other.” i love when adults use the word crush i find it endearing
“they were muttering to themselves: make way, make way, make way.” I MISS GANSEY. make way for the raven king
i know that this book insisted again that opal is more creature than she is human but like. she’s still at least a little human. does nobody but me care about how she’s been doing all alone at the barns for however long ronan has been on the road?
MOTHER. FUCKER.
i’m sooooo mad i’m so mad. “i know when you dreamt me” fuck off! i hate you.
he’s a liar right this is nuts even for these books. this is some grade a gaslighting
oh nooooo
gun taped to the bottom of the kitchen table. oh declan
hm.
well. that’s the book. truly have no idea what happened those last few chapters. no clue. nada. hated those chapters. i’m gonna go back to living in chapters one through thirty-two i think
#mi spoilers#mister impossible#mister impossible spoilers#trc#spoilers spoilers i am so sorry if i spoil this for anyone!!!

im sorry but i’m an exclus and i stumbled upon your dan post- its very insensitive of you to assume that just bc he aligns more w the inclus we’re going to attack him using baseless accusations. the way he talked abt reclaiming q was really delicately said and painted as a personal choice. kinda nasty to accuse us of harrassing him in the future based on nothing when we’re just as proud of him for his CO. the enemy is not within the community and we seem to be the only ones not harrassing anyone
I know mod K’s the one who made that post, but I wholeheartedly stand by the points they’ve made, and as an Ace who’s been seeing the vile accusations, smearing-campaigns and the heartless attacks from exclusionists to inclu-aligned “actual LGBT” content creators, let me just say that you’ve got to be the densest person ever to deny how this is something within “exclusionists culture” every now and again when someone shows support of Ace/Aro people and/or the label Queer.
Remember when Thomas Sanders: a non-Aspec gay Viner/Youtuber, who makes child-friendly and Queer-inclusive contents, became accused of being a p*do in a situation that’s not even his fault (which he’s also apologized for anyways and nothing like that has ever happened since)??? On top of being deemed the ultimate “cringe culture” and used as a mean to make fun of young Queer people who enjoys his work??? Also remember how people attacked Jeffrey Marsh, and tried to “cancel” them because they explicitly stated that Aces/Aros are LGBTQ+??? Good times, good times /s
Those two are just the most popular cases around, I’m not even gonna touch on the other attacks on smaller content creators who’re inclusive, both Aspec and non-Aspec alike. If you’re an exclusionist who doesn’t pull this crap??? Good for you ig, but don’t act like the loudest exclusies aren’t running around constantly tearing down those who shows Ace/Aros a lick of positivity, even when they’re considered “real El Gee Bee Tees” by whatever standards you guys have nowadays, so EXCUSE US for being just a wee bit defensive.
You’re REALLY deep in denial that you don’t see how the rampant exclusion is a part of the enemy. This is overlooking something so blatantly obvious too so don’t even try me with the whole “your experience is not universal” BS because it’s the goddamn forefront of this discourse that YOU created and you know it.
Also “the only ones not harrassing anyone”………. Oh my lord. OOOHHH MY LOORRDDDD

ok idk anybody else to talk to abt this but seeing as you are a mcelesbian, ive id’d as bi for as long as i realized i was gay but it doesnt....? feel right? im def more attracted to women so ive tried id’ing as lesbian bc i felt it represented me more but i was scared people would call me out or smth bc i talk exclusively about how much i love rob and like ???? idk im losing it kinda. dmksnd kinda dumb but im hhhh
hi im sorry its taken me a couple days to get back to you but ive been trying to collect my thoughts and have some time to sit down and answer. unfortunately sexuality is a deeply personal thing that only you can answer for yourself (sucks, i know. if an older el gee bee tee could just assign me a nametag with my info on it, that’d be great) and it just takes lots and lots of time & introspection & figuring out where your priorities lie
i can only go on what you’ve said here but, i think if you’re more attracted to women & you know this, then the next step is to decide what youre going to do. think about your future. do you want to continue to date men, be with men, could you see yourself someday marrying one? i dont mean to ask, “could you do all of those things” because of course you can, i mean to ask, do you want all of those things? or, when you think about your future, do you see yourself much happier doing those things with women?
i guess what i’m saying is that the difference seems to be that bisexuality doesn’t “feel right” which is more…internal, that’s something that you’ve reflected on and personally doesn’t feel right for you. meanwhile you tried lesbian, and it felt more right, but you were more afraid of outside disapproval. but it’s not about how others will react (theyre always going to react negatively, unfortunately. the price u pay for being a woman and sga) it’s about finding what feels comfortable and right for yourself & learning to be proud of that! self-fulfillment with these types of things has to come from within. i’d check out this post too
irt the rob stuff: i wouldn’t worry about it. i’m gay but i have eyes, and anyway feeling a complicated mixture of love and attraction to a grown adult man that i’ll never meet but who has repeatedly shown himself to be an outstanding ghgs3+ ally is common & probably originates from appreciation and respect, and then he just happens to be gorgeous so feelings get stirred up. anyway, things you may or may not feel for a celebrity you’ll never meet and who doesn’t know who you are has no bearing on identity if irl you’re exclusively dating women & not attracted to everyday men you meet 🤷🏼♀️ my rob love isn’t even comp het, it’s flat out attraction but who cares. unless rob personally calls me to ask me out, i’m not dating men so it doesn’t matter
ultimately i can’t tell you how to identify, and i can’t decide what’s best for you label-wise. all i can say is that you should only consider YOUR feelings on the matter, and nobody else’s. good luck ❤️🌈

cw: discussion of q slur and transphobia under the cut
lol throwback to three hours ago when i said i was glad our school didn’t call our gss program “qu**r studies” and my friend, a gss major (who said she has only taken one gss class so far lol), proceeded say stuff in a mocking/taunting voice like “oh, you don’t like the word qu**r? does the word qu**r make you uncomfortable? I’ll have you know that qu**r studies has been used in academia by actual good qu**r academics for decades. i wish our school called it qu**r studies. you’re offended by the word qu**r? too bad, because only some qu**r people are offended by the word qu**r. Most qu**r people actually prefer the word qu**r because it’s inclusive of all qu**r people, not just el gee bee tee”
and whenever i tried to interject something about how ??? i have a lot of trauma associated with the word as i encountered a lot of homophobia growing up in Texas so would you like, intentionally rubbing the word in my face as though there’s something wrong with me for flinching whenever i hear that word? i have friends who identify as qu**r and i’m fine with it as long as they understand that not everyone can view the word in a positive light. also it’s not as though “gender and sexuality studies” isn’t also inclusive????? it’s literally ????????????? the most inclusive way to say that???????????? so why was she getting so defensive???
especially since the way she was saying it was in the exact same tone (i.e. mocking/taunting/teasing me with the word) as i’d hear people using the word as a slur would use?????? like I was having flashbacks to that as i was sitting there because of her???????
and i was literally shaking and i just said “i’m not having this conversation with you, i don’t want to argue about this, can you please stop saying that,” etc. and i just said “i dont want to offend you with my opinion” and she said “oh don’t worry, you won’t hurt me,” and i just said, straight to her face, “well, i can’t say the opposite is true.” also there was (another lesbian) sitting with us and she just looked so uncomfortable with how my other friend was acting. (i am the mutual friend between them and i invited the rude one.)
also she literally said, to my face, that she can pass as a guy/not a woman better than me. i was like ???? i’m literally not a woman ????? and she was like “ive been asked if i was a guy or a girl before. i would pass as a guy. you wouldn’t” and she mentions how she’s got short hair while i have long hair, and how she looks more androgynous in general. then she says that she was also considering to “pretend she was a guy” (an idea which i gave her when we first had a conversation over text about the dress code.) and what the fuck. you’re a woman and i’m not. i wouldn’t be “pretending to be a guy,” i wouldn’t be pretending anything at all. i would just be.... being myself, which is not a woman! a cis girl should not be saying this to a nb person. the context was that i was opening up to the two of them about how i was super upset that women are required to wear a skirt or a dress to enter certain religious places on our greece trip and how that was going to be super dysphoric for me, and how i was thinking about just dressing up really fancy in dress clothes and a tie.
As a side note... after the qu**r thing happened, I said that archaeology (we’re in a greek archaeology class) was rooted in racism, imperialism, and orientalism & she was like “wow you’re just attacking everything i love!” like okay... you love racist things then lol i wonder what that says about you
like wow this year my friends really are showing their true colors????
#q slur //#homophobia //#transphobia //#it's personal#i just................. hate people who do this. you're not cool or edgy you're offensive.#it's not punk to be an asshole !!#long post#though it's under a cut lol

hey i just wanted to say sorry that weaver-z chose to be such a massive cunt to you on that post after you tried to politely explain something so simple lmfao. the egregious levels of disrespect, apathy, & outright mockery i see being thrown around casually & regularly towards people who dont/cant pass, people who dont/cant medically and/or fully socially transition- from within our very own el gee bee tee community- is fucking pathetic and cringe as hell. like what is the damage lmfao. the lack of the most baseline level of compassion & empathy for another human being whose shoes you arent in.. i cannot imagine living my life like that. just a wholly myopically oblivious lack of shame. which, it must be said again, would not sting so much to encounter if the call wasnt coming from inside the damn house.. you must get that sort of shit all the time, & i am deeply sorry for that.
Literally am reeling that I apparently had a Hot Take for once, this never happens to me, and am now getting bullied for apparently faking being gay. My mom literally lost her mind when she found out I was dating the person I was in college (they were nb but my mom didn’t know that and thought they were a cis woman, pretty sure me being afab and dating an afab person makes me pretty damn gay???) but yeah I’m just faking being gay on the Internet for attention or whatever. I’m never even online!
