#they are estranged husbands

[feelingpure]

Fellow Travelers will rip your heart out:

(Ugh, ouch, pain; Tim's face in those shots...)

Then immediately cut to:

(Heh, I wasn't expecting the old-married-couple levels of domestic bickering!)

Followed by:

(Lmao, Hawk can be honest and funny?)

And this jab from Tim:

(Oop-)

Tim (and me) at the end of the scene:

#my emotions throughout this: 😭🤭🙄😂😩🥲 #fellow travelers #ft spoilers #1x04 #hawk x tim #tim x hawk #tim laughlin #jonathan bailey #hawkins fuller #matt bomer #domestic #80s #lgbtqia+ #gay #gay ships #the pain. the humour. the angst. the pettiness. #it's got it all #this all took place in like 30 seconds #i've been thinking about this scene so obviously had to come yap about it here #they are estranged husbands

Thinking about Vulcans prizing “calm” over “happiness”. 

Like how humans look back on their childhood and remember how happy it was - joyful days spent running around in the sun, getting into a bit of trouble, laughing with peers and family - that’s how they know it was a good one. Meanwhile Vulcans might look back on their childhood and remember how peaceful it was. Quiet days spent studying, the warm glow of candlelit lessons in caves, getting along smoothly with ones peers - that’s how they know it was a good one. Humans typically chose their friends and romantic partners based on if this person makes them feel happy above all. The question of “Do you like being with them?” is interpreted to mean “Does being with them make you feel happy?” But since Vulcans don’t experience (or strive for) happiness there would have to be some other parameter. So I was thinking about like, what is a good relationship to a Vulcan? There’s obviously a big emphasis on ‘togetherness’ in Vulcan unions. The Pon Farr ritual Tuvok does with his [hologram] wife involves them committing to becoming “Two bodies one mind” and it’s stated that they give and receive from each other all that they are. There’s also of course the iconic “Never and always touching and touched”. This is all (as was said during T’Pol & Koss’ wedding) “The Vulcan heart, the Vulcan soul, this is our way.” Vulcans are also (ENT) expected to live together for at least a year after being married - I imagine so that they can bond with and get to know one another. In SNW T’Pring wants for Spock to honor the commitments he makes to her so in that case T’Pring values Spock keeping his word to her and placing her above other things. I see a bit of Tuvok in that, where he prizes his commitment to T’Pel over anything else to the point where he’d nearly rather die than break it: (Even though he eventually agrees to having sex with a hologram it MUST be of his wife and he lets Tom/The Audience know that he will NOT be making a habit of it. There’s no ironclad logical reason for him to react this way as a hologram is not a person but his commitment to T’Pel seems to take precedence and I believe that’s his reasoning. His bond with T’Pel is logical, sustaining and important to him and he’s loath to break it over some bodily need. some desire that will pass even if it kills him.) <- By this way of thinking, betraying T’Pel would be the emotional choice while remaining loyal to her is remaining loyal to his logical self. A strong emphasis on loyalty to one’s mate seems to be a common Vulcan trait. In the beginning this seems to be rooted in tradition but later on its probably assumed that the couple will be loyal to one another out of some sort of actual connection between two people as opposed to pure obligation. In ENT T’Pol says that a certain degree of “affection” is eventually expected to happen within a marriage (though the way she says it makes me think this doesn’t always occur and isn’t necessarily The Goal) and her mother says that she and her husband developed a “deep connection” to one another. All this makes me think that a connection and a sense of ‘togetherness’ or ‘compatibility’ would also be prized over more emotional things like a passion for one another. It’s a partnership above all and that would be prized over a romantic union.  It makes me think of Vulcans’ roots in violence and war. Maybe this commitment to a steady togetherness, two people who don’t know each other being able to work together so seamlessly they nearly become one, is a way to show they’ve moved beyond that despite the pon farr remaining. Vulcans are a naturally very emotional species. Someone who incites that would probably not be seen as someone you should spend your time with. Someone who makes your heart pound, sets you ablaze, fills you with passion - that sounds like a bad Vulcan time v_v  Tuvok says as much when he talks about how he was struck with “shon-ha’lock”. Humans wouldn’t see anything wrong with having a crush on someone (and indeed in that episode Tom only comes to the conclusion that it’s a shame Tuvok couldn’t act on these emotions) but it’s obvious that even a teenaged crush when uncontrolled can become a very big problem to a Vulcan. In one of the Star Trek Novels Tuvok even stops being friends with and talking to a girl because she tearfully admits she has feelings for him and he sees that her feelings for him cause her pain.  Instead of thinking “Oh, she really likes me, good! We’re close friends so maybe we can make this work.” or even “I don’t like her romantically but since we’re close friends we can work through it.”  Tuvok thinks “Oh, she really likes me. That must be causing her to become very emotional and I can see she’s clearly upset. I’ll remove myself from her life so my presence doesn’t incite those emotions anymore.” And while him flat out just cutting himself out of her life might seem weird and kind of cruel and a frankly hilarious reaction to someone confessing their love to you - I also think it’s something he thought of as a kindness. If his presence harms her (stirs up emotions in her) then he will remove himself to keep from harming her. Along that vein, calmness or the absence of strong emotions would be a good relationship and one worth staying in. Not that there can’t be any emotions (Tuvok and T’Les obviously care[d] deeply for their respective spouses) but that they must be controllable and able to be cast aside in the face of logic.  I also think that “knowing” the other person would be considered very important (after marriage of course). If you’re to operate as a partnership, a team, and especially if you’re both telepaths you should be able to know your spouse pretty damn well. I see T’Pring attempt to do this in SNW where she is constantly fighting to get to know Spock which Spock self-consciously discourages since he’s been told/shown that his human side is unappealing to Vulcans.  But yeah man idk...just picturing a Vulcan and a human talking for hours...walking along the beach...sleeping side by side...getting to know one another...and at the end of it all one says “You make me feel happy” and the other says “Your presence calms me” and it means, essentially, the same thing.

#star trek #vulcans #Flipside to humans seeing Vulcan relationships as frighteningly cold and formal: where's the choice? the autonomy? the love! #Vulcans seeing Human relationships as exhaustingly turbulent meandering and estranged: where's the union? the commitment? the connection! #In the star trek universe my only contribution is that I write a book titled 'Vulcan-Human Relationships: Peace & Love' #and it's never important to any story it's just a background gag #Vulcan: Is that your husband? / Human: HUSBAND?? Haha we've only been dating like a year or two. / Vulcan: I can't with this. I have to go. #I don't ever know what to call these things #ummmmmmmmmmm I hope I'm making any sense #alien affections and value systems my beloved.... #people who earnestly 100% do NOT desire human concepts of 'love' or 'happiness' - INTERESTING!!!!! #I like Tuvok a lot when i think about this bc he has a Vulcan spouse whom he cherishes while every other main Vulcan has either: #A human love interest and/or A vulcan spouse they don't want to marry #WHICH IS WHY I WISH. THEY HAD EXPLORED TUVOK'S RELATIONSHIP W ITH HIS WIFE. EVEN A ///LITTLE//// BIT. #-chewing at the walls- BUT ITS FINE. IT'S FINE THAT THEY DIDN'T AT ALL. /lie

"At least one of the sources of this account clearly felt that a queen's funeral should have been more splendid, regardless of the fact that she had retired from court and was not the mother of the king. However, there is no real evidence that the desire expressed in Elizabeth Woodville's will for a humble ceremony was not genuine. Despite her status she was still a prize for the religious house in which she was buried. In earlier centuries there had been bitter competition between houses for the bodies of men of such dubious reputation as Henry II's heir (the young king Henry) and King John. Had Elizabeth omitted the request for a humble burial, the clergy at Windsor would probably have permitted the heralds to organize the grander funeral they expected. The consequence of that stipulation was that, in stark contrast to her daughter's funeral, the mourners were all people who had actually known her. Elizabeth Woodville's status as a widow meant that she could choose a funeral which was a ritual for a woman, not a queen."

-J.L. Laynesmith, "The Last Medieval Queens: English Queenship 1445-1503"

#historicwomendaily #elizabeth woodville #and honestly the fact remains that all her attending children also went along with a more humble funeral for her #when they would've easily been able to order and/or organize a more elaborate ceremony #this EVIDENTLY indicates that they knew a more modest funeral is what their mother really wanted #people also tend to think that she was estranged from her daughter Cecily and from Margaret Beaufort because they didn't attend the funeral #except...Elizabeth of York was in confinement because of her pregnancy they were almost definitely attending to her #and we KNOW that John Welles - Cecily's husband and Margaret's brother - attended. As did the governess of EoY's children I think #honestly I think Elizabeth's retirement to Bermondsey Abbey and her subsequent request for a simple funeral #can - if taken together - indicate a specific mindset that she may have had after the trauma of 1483-85 (a wish for a quieter life) #(tho I think she would've probably taken a different decision had her son been King) #and even regarding the transfer of lands - people forget that they were going to her own daughter. It's quite reasonable to assume that #she'd be willing to part with them to ensure that Elizabeth of York was well-endowed as queen #if the new queen had been a stranger it would've been a different story #(admittedly we don't know when she retired to the Abbey. It may be closer to her death date than what's generally assumed) #my post #15th century #english history #queue

ok confession time. so i've seen a lot of ppl recently talk about how they found out about mulder and scully's estrangement in the revival and how they were shook about it but. basically. ugh. it didn't realy work out that way for me. bc genuinely the first time i saw i want to believe the msr vibes were so insane that i thought they were already estranged. like i fully thought the unremarkable house was just. mulder's house. and scully just came over to visit. and stayed over. in a weird ex-wife sort of way ? so when the revival happened years later and everyone was all: omg mulder and scully broke up ??? i was just there like ???? no kidding ????

truly i have been misinterpreting this show for decades

#no word of a lie #mulder and scully's relationship is so unhinged that it looks like they're estranged even when they're LIVING TOGETHER #don't tell me iwtb msr don't have estranged vibes #dana's like 'he's not my husband!!!!!' to the priest like mulder's a man she's been trying to shake off for twenty years #and not like #the guy who made her breakfast that morning #insane #i want to believe #txf revival #confession #txf

unironically andrew garfield would be a great palamedes. like just personality wise, but esspecially if you took him from his skinny white boy peter parker era.

I simply cannot endorse this MY palamedes is west asian and never starred in the social network (2010) OR the amazing spiderman (2012). The ONLY casting I'm prepared to support from that cursed list is ben barnes as naberius, because I think ben barnes is handsome and naberius needs all the help he can get in that department if he is to inspire the maximum amount of drama when ianthe kills him + subsequent ianthe apologism

#replies #cursed ask!! #but how do you guys feel? is Andrew garfield known for portraying estranged husband in the social network (2010) a valid palamedes

soooooo convenient that Mac MacKenzie's artistic talents have completely gone to shit EXCEPT for when he's painting his estranged wife and even MORE convenient that he juuuuust made a wager that he can paint nude erotic paintings......

#and even MORE convenient that isabella just agrees to post naked because by god her estranged husband will win this bet #it doesn't matter if he paints just her lower half to hide her identity #or superimposes another woman's face on her bod #she WILL pose for him #for the bet #just the bet #romance novels #jennifer ashley #historical romance

membrane and doof get along for five minutes and then doof sees membrane dismiss dib as crazy and berates him for not doing real science and then its ON SIGHT, this is HIS supernatural obsessed son now, FUCK YOU

they'd be like anime rivals except entirely one-sided. membrane would forget his existence five minutes later and doof has declared him his sworn arch rival ("after you, perry the platypus, of course" *understanding platypus chitter*)

#dib is both thrilled and a little bewildered by his new dad #vanessa likes him but does her best to hide that she thinks gaz is the coolest person she's ever met in her life #gaz doesn't care about any of this #zim assumes doof is membrane's estranged husband and tries to get them back together bc he thinks it'll get dib off his back #dib tries to stop him bc. it just feels like what he should do #somehow this results in doof going on a blind date with gir #membrane was also invited on a date (possibly the same one) but mistakes perry for the easter platypus and runs off after him #meanwhile phineas ferb and the rest invent a teleporter that zaps them to irk where the tallest mistake them for off-color irkens #candace tries to show her mom the teleporter but her mom is putting away groceries and candace keeps accidentally un-putting them away #ferb's one line is at the very end of the episode when his dad gets a phone call from membrane and ferb says ''mom's calling'' #then it zooms in on him like this is a big reveal and it's never mentioned or referenced again
