five four comfort characters, five tags

I got tagged by @aurorawest to whom I apologise for my failures here <3

Doctor Who - all of them even the slightly naff ones i don't care i love them so muchhhh

Max Klinger - no but see it says "comfort character" and while some others might appeal to me more in other ways Klinger is clearly the kindest and most comforting M*A*S*H character, if you felt a bit below the weather he'd bring you soft furnishings and baklava. (idk how he'd get hold of those but he'd manage it somehow.)

Romana from Dr Who - she's very Comfort Who, it's always nice to watch her complain that the Mona Lisa has no eyebrows.

I find Ben Sisko very comforting too, even when he's angsting. He has a happy loving family and he can cook and okay he lied and he cheated and he bribed men to cover the crimes of other men but there's something weirdly comforting about that too.

I've been trying to think of a 5th for a while now but not doing well on that, party because I like a lot of characters who aren't really all that comforting but also because conversely I can think of too many who are somewhat comforting but probably no more so than whoever I'd think of five minutes later. So you're only getting four, sorry.

As ever I am too chicken to name names and tag people. PLS VOLUNTEER, thanks in advance.

#thing with klinger is stuff about him is Problematic sometimes but he himself may be the least Problematic Shitlord as a (fictional) person #like they'll mock his Lebanese heritage but he himself is proud of it #and of his working-class roots in Toledo. idk where Toledo even is but I know that Klinger LOVES that place. #people will get mad at him over stuff that's not his fault and he'll STILL be kind to them if they're not feeling great #so anyway thanks for coming to my Klinger Is The Best Of Them TED Talk pls leave a donation in the box by the exit when you leave

Listening to Kid War on repeat because I've got the kind of ache only a screaming white boy in a car can soothe

#the break down at the end where he's just screaming “i hate you” so loud the mic cant even get it is real #car seat headrest #thank you again will toledo #also im actually at the end of my rope not gonna kms because I have responsibilities but always wishing i could lol ignore that but also #tell god he has to start being nicer to me

[imaggots]

" Hey, no peeking! We're almost there. " Guiding her through the halls of the school, she made sure she wasn't opening her eyes. The entire gang had worked hard to keep this all a surprise, & it was even more special when she was one of their newest additions in their little friend group. It took weeks of planning, but it was worth it.

Escorting her from behind, she then stopped in front of a classroom door. As she carefully opened the door for her, she would then let go of her & proceed to go around her. " Okay, open your eyes. " As she would open her eyes, poppers would go off around her, confetti falling from the air.

" HAPPY BIRTHDAY, ITSUKI! "

Surrounding her were all the girls & Tyler, & when she looked around the empty classroom, she could see all the decorations they hung up for her. Colors of blue & yellow were chosen to compliment her, & on the chalkboard read 'HAPPY BIRTHDAY!' in bold letters. Gifts would be piled up on one of the desks, in which she would open them very soon. But first, Meilin would offer her a piece of cake served on a plastic plate. " If you think this is the end of your special day, you guessed wrong. We're totally gonna do something after school, but for now, consider this a birthday pregame. "

❤️ HAPPY BIRTHDAY ITSUKI!!! (15th March) ❤️

"Awwww awraht, awraht, siiis~!"

As she would focus mainly on minding her steps then (Because gosh knows that she will STILL find someway to trip over herself, even with the sis carefully guiding her there), there was also a small smile of ever growing CURIOSITY upon the Japanese girl's face. Squeezing her eyes that much tighter, the moment the other had warned her not to sneak the slightest peek. Her lips clamping just as tightly for a moment, as her shoulders hunched ever so slightly to boot.

It seemed like only yesterday, when the two of them were but schoolmates merely sharing a bunch of classes together. Not all that long ago, when Mei and her would often just sit in opposite ends of those classrooms. And yet, Itsuki had also since LOST COUNT-- when it came to how many times they have hung out together this year... How things have taken such a turn, ever since she returned from Japan-- and just approached the sis that day with a little gift.

How much has truly changed, on this very year.

And oh, that most certainly didn't just include her. As she would soon learn that Tyler had also sorta become a part of the group like she had! Pleasantly surprised to learn that he would share the same love and passion for a certain boyband, just like the rest of them did, hehe!

Before she knew it, they were already there. Standing in place for just a moment, before finally doing as she was told and opening her eyes...

Itsuki would be greeted with the sights and sounds of poppers and confetti all around her, the moment she did. Letting out a loud gasp, as she took it all in. Stunned-- almost, overwhelmed, even-- by everything that she was seeing then. At the sight of all her FRIENDS having come together to put together all of this-- just for her! Welcoming her with such BRIGHT GRINS on their faces, and showing just how EXCITED and ALL-TOO-READY they all were to celebrate her special day with her!

H-Ho boy... l-looks like something got in her eye then-- because n-no! She wasn't about to cry! O-Oh consarn it... her eyes were tearing up just a tad then... there was just no stopping it now.

"I-Is this is... rea-leh all fer me...?"

Itsuki would finally find her voice in those first few uttered words. Still taking in the wonderful decorations themselves, and just how incredibly similar the pastel shades of blues and yellows were to the outfits that she herself would wear. And of course, the outstanding job they have done on the chalkboard itself, with those two words being so vibrantly drawn out-- and just as well decorated as the rest of the classroom itself was then!

And soon enough, that awed expression would make way for the largest grin that Itsuki could ever give. Her cheeks glowing a DELIGHTED PINK, as her hands would lift themselves up to briefly cover them.

Unable to stop herself from wanting to conceal them for just a moment (Just needing a minute to gather herself), before eventually reaching out to throw her arms around her DEAR FRIENDS. Giving them all the BIGGEST HUGS she could muster (And oh, they should know by now just how much of a HUGGER she could be, hehe!), and taking all the more joy in the fact that that they were all so quick to return it. Even squealing amongst themselves as they did, whilst hopping up and down together.

"Y-Ya GUUUUUYS! A-Ah can't believe y'all... t-this is all so..."

W-Wonderful beyond words!

This had been the first time she would get to celebrate her birthday like this. To celebrate it with a group of friends like this...

While a part of her knew that her friends have most definitely been up to something-- never had she imagined anything like this! For them to plan such a big, BIG SURPRISE like this for her. Honestly, she would have been happy enough to just be offered well wishes by them on this day, and receive a couple of hugs-- and then maybe get something to eat together after. But no, oh no, they would all actually go the EXTRA MILE!

And as she was handed the first slice of cake, Itsuki could only gape, upon hearing that there was actually more to come. Humorously enough, still managing to lift a forkful of it into her mouth, whilst she peered back at her friend with a stunned, wide-eyed look on her face.

And while this was not yet the end (And in fact, only the beginning), Itsuki would say then with the utmost certainty that:

"This is already the Bestest. Birthday. Evah, sis."

With every “!!” i get, I’ll introduce you to an OC!

Despite her early retirement from acting in 2009, Nicole Toledo is still remembered for many of her iconic roles back in the 80s and 90s. From a supporting role in a sitcom back in the 80s to her teen drama days and her young marriage to fellow actor Deven Shaw in the 90s, which eventually lead to a divorce, to her acclaimed roles in the early 2000s, Nicole has done it all.

Always a wise woman, Nicole knew better than to just become "Deven Shaw's wife" and instead took the roles that she knew would make her stand out the most, won both the love of the public and the awards she deserved, and ultimately become much more successful than her forgotten ex-husband.

[jewish-vents]

I went to the Jewish quarter in Toledo today and I really don’t know how to feel. I’m part Sephardi, my ancestors most likely lived here at some point. I went to the Beit Knesset they would have went to, the oldest one in Europe, I think— it’s a museum now. Part of the floor was clearly new, and part of the floor was clearly ancient. I took a picture of the ancient part, the part that my ancestors would have also stepped on. There was a cross right under the two orange windows representing the Ten Commandments that Moshe brought down, and right next to that there were Christian murals of baby angels. It was beautiful, but there was such a tangible sadness to it, deadness, almost, that I couldn’t help feeling uncomfortable. The non Jewish tourists didn’t notice it, and that made me even more uncomfortable

There was a gift shop right next to the Beit Knesset. They were selling menorahs, not chanukias, seven-pronged menorahs— and all I could think of was ‘who is this for? Not for the Jewish tourists who come here, obviously, menorahs are for Beitei Knesset, not for home. Who is this for?’ It felt wrong. Later on, I saw the exact same menorahs in a different shop, a street away. This isn’t Judaica— Judaica isn’t mass produced like that, normally it’s handmade. It’s made with love, with care, it’s made with a Jewish touch. None of the items in this gift shop have a Jewish touch to them. Feeling like I was selling out my people, I bought a couple magen David magnets from there anyway

The Jewish part of Toledo feels… I’m not sure how to say it, but it’s like a remnant. You can tell that there was something before this, but that something is gone, it’s been wiped out. And that something was Jewish. And now it just drifts through this town, like dust, never properly gone but never enough than a vague feeling. And on top of all of that is a thick layer of Catholicism, and the knowledge of the brutality that brought this Jewish cultural centre to decimation

Toledo doesn’t really acknowledge what it did to its Jews. There’s a small square on the wall of a very old house, one that most certainly used to belong to a Jew before, that talks about Shmuel Levi, saying how he would rather have died by torture than become a confessor— they call him Samuel there, though, and I feel kind of stupid for how much I resent that. But that’s it. Instead they’re giving museum tours of the two Beite Knesset that used to exist before they were converted to being churches, and then war rooms, and now attractions. They’re selling Judaica that isn’t Judaica, right next to figures of Yeshu bleeding out on the cross. They’ve got small חי tiles on the corners of the street, but all I can think of is the Jews that were slaughtered in this town by the ancestors of the people who are now living in what were their houses

All I can think of is the pork being sold everywhere, and all the chametz people are eating before the sun sets on the last day of pesach

(sorry for the pretentious poetic language, I’m a writer I can’t help it)

Thank you for sharing this. There is something almost haunting about visiting places that were once Jewish but aren't anymore. I once saw a quote somewhere about how Memory is a sixth sense for Jewish people (I don't remember where I saw it but will try to find it again). Reading this reminded me of that.

I don't have many words of comfort. I actually don't live that far from Toledo. Our shul is tiny, but we have a kosher Torah from the time of the Inquisition. We outlived them.
