#this is the real reason they got married

[bowl-of-fruit-loops]

hey why did bill’s ex-wife move to clivesdale? literally no one from hatchetfield would do that. people die and go missing all the time and they refuse to leave. and if they do they don’t move to fucking clivesdale

#idk if more info abt bill’s ex wife is in nightmare time as I’ve only seen the first episode #but in the fiction I just made up bill’s ex wife isn’t from hatchetfield but she met bill in college #and they got married right after college and she moved to hatchetfield bc bull loved his hometown so much and she slowly (or not so slowly) #realizes something is Weird and Wrong about hatchetfield and every time she brings it up with bill #he’s like ‘yeah :) that’s hatchetfield for you’ #and his unwillingness to take her (very real) concerns about hatchetfield is part of the reason they get a divorce #another driving factor is she started looking for jobs outside of hatchetfield and was offered a very good position in clivesdale #and she took it (without consulting bill) bc it’s perfect they can move out of hatchetfield but still be close enough to visit #and sure there’s a bit of a rivalry between the two towns but that kind of stuff gets left behind after high school #only bill is very much Not Okay with that and maybe at first she tries commuting but traffic is bad especially across the bridge #and if bill would be sensible— #so they get a divorce and she gets majority custody of Alice which she’s grateful for bc she’s safer in clivesdale #and the of course alice keeps fucking dying in hatchetfield so #starkid #hatchetfield #hatchetverse

thinking about how Franky knows Loid's marriage to Yor is a ruse (both for the real Operation Strix version and the fake get-into-Eden version), but Yor doesn't know that he knows. he's the only person Yor has met who knows it's actually just a marriage of convenience, and consequentially who knows that she isn't really in love with him (supposedly anyway heheheh), so theoretically he'd be the guy Yor can turn to if she wants to talk about how she actually is falling for her husband and that's weird and confusing, because Franky is already fully aware that she wasn't already in love with him. except she doesn't know that he knows, so she can't do that. makes me wonder if she'll find out before Loid gets outed as a spy and it becomes a moot point.

#franky knows the marriage is just a mutually beneficial deal #he knows the “real” reason (and the actual real reason) that loid and yor got together #so yor doesn't have to act like she's madly in love with loid whenever they meet #franky already knows that she's only married to loid on paper #and if yor knew that then franky could become her confidante #he's the one person she could talk to once it occurs to her that her feelings are more than friendship #since for the cover story to work it has to come off as a serious romantic relationship to everyone not in the know #but that's only if yor knows he knows. which currently she doesn't #*currently* she has to keep up the act even though franky sees right through it #because he knows they're basically just two people playing house #but yor doesn't *know* that #it's late. does this make sense #spy x family #sage speaketh #yor forger #franky franklin

..... yeah, there's a reason the lighthouse metaphor in ofmd appeals to me so heavily

#actually it's just. the reason the show itself appeals so heavily to me. outside of it just genuinely being a good show lmao #trips to the north carolina coast as a child fueled an obsession with lighthouses and pirate history (yeah we learned about blackbeard #in school and stede bonnet too) #one of my favorite places in the world is the town that now exists in the spot where stede bonnet was captured #(and ofc im not trying to glorify the real guys i just like history!!) #but yeah lmao i have a bunch of pictures of me in the spots where sb got captured and blackbeard got killed and their ships were run aground #and the musuem where the queen annes revenge is #ANYWAYS. i have a lighthouse problem. my first tattoo will prob be a lighthouse #also sidenote the lighthouse stede and mary get married beside is the ugliest fucking lighthouse ive ever seen #and ive seen skeleton lighthouses #some college friends referred to oak island lighthouse as cigarette butt lighthouse

So what do y’all think the other people in twofs thought of Thaniel divorcing his wife and then immediately choosing to adopt a kid with his “real good friend”??? There’s very few heterosexual explanations for that and yet no one calls him on it at all

#he can’t be like ‘oh I wanted a kid and she didn’t’ bc it wouldn’t make sense to not just remarry??? #do they think that like Grace originally was involved in adopting her but opted out last minute??? #they can’t outright say that they only got married for her dowry bc that’s illegal #but they also can’t say the real reason they got divorced because that’s even more illegal #I really have to know

[punkwixes]

even eloping costs so much money at some of these places. if you want a 10 minute ceremony with your significant other and like 2 people there that’ll be $800.

#i’ll be real whenever i thought abt the idea of getting married at all (not that i thought i ever WOULD. or would be able to.) #i always figured id just sign some papers at city hall and be done w it lol #but not only do i Not want that now but canada doesn’t even let you do that. which is funny to me. you gotta have Some kinda ceremony. #DOESN’T cost as much as an $800 private venue ofc but it’s just still funny to me. #anyways my goal is to make an affordable reasonably priced wedding happen. i just worry that other people think affordable means smth else? #like at THIS point. people are pointing to venues that cost $8-10k like ‘affordable!’ and i’m like. you got anythin for like. um. under $200

I stay losing followers

#this is so funny i went to check my drafts real quick and whoops another four gone #its noticable cause its not a super super high number to begin with #which coincidentally is the reason i refused to unfollow this chef on instagram for four years #like i got invested too #watched her get married and everything #i of course left but hey #its fineeee

Watching reels of middle aged people celebrating paying off their house which they own which is a video I should be happy about but instead all I can feel is profound sadness and premature grief for something that I will never, ever achieve

#I hate it when my parents say you never know!! well guess what I do know!! you assholes got married for all the wrong reasons #and raised your children in a starter home. I have nothing of substance to look forward to or inherit when it’s my time because you #and your parents ruined the economy for my generation. I will own no home nor retire nor know the feeling of financial relief #because I was doomed before I was born #now I see other parents living in the home they bought with real money and I see them living a lifestyle that will soon be extinct #and it makes me so devastatingly sad

I learned so much about Juno (the Roman goddess) from wiki after I sent that ask 😂 I'm honoured that you drew from it

Although nobody knows of her exact origin, Juno is one of the three original Roman gods — Jupiter, Juno, and Minerva.

Early representations of Juno vary, but Roman literature does pretty much regard her as the Queen of Heaven. She was worshipped in the East as the goddess of both love and war, and often closely identified with Astarte, the patron goddess of Carthage. In the West, we'd find two distinct characterizations of her in different places: the lawless war goddess Juno Moneta (Juno Sospita if you’re Lanuvian), deity of soldiers and spears, of warning, advising, instructing — and the Juno of the Capitol, patroness of women, of marriage, of love, and female life (some known surnames are Pronuba, Matrona, Juga, Lucina, Opigena).

Above reference: Hands, A. W. (1910). JUNO MONETA. The Numismatic Chronicle and Journal of the Royal Numismatic Society, 10, 1–12. http://www.jstor.org/stable/42663622

Further explanation and name breakdown:

Juno was known by a number of epithets, each of which showcased a distinct persona of the goddess. For her role in succoring the needy and protecting the city of Rome during war, she was called Juno Sospita, or “Juno the Savior". Juno Curritis/Curitis/Quiritis, or "Juno of the Spearmen," was said to be the only deity worshipped by all thirty curiae (military and political divisions) established by the founder and first Roman king, Romulus. She was also called Juno Moneta, or “Juno the Warner,” for bringing news of danger and preparing the threatened. She was named Juno Regina or “Queen Juno [of gods and men],” for her role as a head of state and member of the Capitoline Triad (with Jupiter and Minerva), but was also called Juno Opigena, or “Juno the Midwife,” for overseeing childbirth. Finally, she was known as Juno Lucina, or “Juno Who Brings Light,” for bringing light, life, and enlightenment to those who worshipped her.

Above reference:

Apel, T. (2020, August 16). Juno. Mythopedia; Mythopedia. https://mythopedia.com/topics/juno

Juno: Protective Roman Goddess. (2022). Vroma.org. http://vroma.org/vromans/bmcmanus/juno_info.html

Why history is difficult to know for sure:

After the arrival of Greek culture, the mythology of Roman religion and the identities of its deities became muddled. Stories about the gods, whether Roman or Greek, become intermixed. Juno, despite being closely associated with the Greek deity Hera, was, in her own right, an important god. She was the queen of heaven, the protector of women, the wife (and sister) of the all-powerful Jupiter. She was the mother of the war god Mars. Gradually, however, the entire mythology surrounding the gods — Jupiter, Juno, Neptune and all the rest — disappeared with the emergence of Christianity.

#juno basically embodied different things depending on the time and place if that wasn't clear #she's got a real fluid identity which made her very approachable and broadly worshipped - indicated by the ridiculous number of dedicated #temples (cough) cults (cough) and festivals #so some scholars have reason to believe that Astarte (form of juno in the near east region) is basically the greek love goddess Aphrodite #which is rather fucking confusing because Astarte (deity of married love) and Aphrodite (deity of love) both coexisted distinctly #and then greek HERA wife of zeus just comes along and her whole deal appears to have been inspired by astarte (east) and juno (west) #by the way. The Romans used an older name for Jupiter (one of the three original gods) - he was called Jove. #the name is indicative of a sky god - you can make the connection to zeus from there (god of sky and thunder) #do i know which gods came first? was it the greeks? i don't have a clue #because i DIDNT REALLY PASS HISTORY #i just fixated on one special specific topic like a maniac and banked my grade on begging and sniveling to my british prof #he gives me life what a guy #ANYWAY THIS IS REALLY LONG #THANKS GUYS #long post #asks #mine

Recently saw the 2023 Haunted Mansion movie (pretty good, some minor issues but definitely nowhere near as bad as some feared) and now my brain won't stop considering something involving Victor and Alice and/or Smiler being in the Haunted Mansion.

Current ideas include: Incorporating it into Broken Sky, vacation story where they tour the Mansion and get trapped for a couple nights, Corpse Bride redo where Victor instead gets dragged to the Mansion instead of Downstairs by Emily and meeting other ghosts including Alice, Bumby, and Smiler, Alice finds out she's inherited the Mansion which sits near Burtonsville and tries to tame the spirits with outcast, "i see dead people" Victor and helpful haunt Smiler...

Are these ideas good? Idk. Would I write them? Maybe, though probably not right now. Are they interesting nonetheless? I hope so!

Oh no, you've turned into me. XD I don't know anything about the Haunted Mansion movie (I've never been to a Disney theme park, and thus have never been on the ride, and thus have no nostalgia prompting me to see it -- glad you enjoyed it, though!), but I DO know about watching something and suddenly having my brain Valice/Valicer it up. As you probably well know, reading my tumblr as you do. XD

*snork* I do like the idea of poor Victor and Alice of Broken Sky thinking they're going to have a nice day out at a Mansion, only to discover a) haunted as fuck and b) can't get out. (Alice is like "you know, we REALLY should have guessed this wasn't going to go well.") The "Corpse Bride but Haunted Mansion instead of Land of the Dead" idea is interesting too -- especially since one of the few things I DO know about the Haunted Mansion is at one point they had their own ghost bride named Emily, so it DOES rather fit! I wonder how Alice, Bumby, and Smiler died in that world. . . (Probably Alice and Bumby died killing each other?) I think my favorite of the trio so far though is "Alice inheriting the Mansion" -- like, it's after A:MR, she's now out a place to live since she killed her employer who was offering her room and board, when lo and behold she gets a letter saying she owns a house. . .only the house is haunted as fuck and now she finds herself having to figure out how to deal with the ghosts. Fortunate for her Victor lives nearby and has some experience with this kind of thing. . .and that one of the ghosts is such a shockingly friendly sort, even if she does wonder sometimes about the glowing yellow eyes. . . They are interesting ideas indeed, and I'm glad you shared! :D

#thesatiricaldemon #haunted mansion valicer #haunted mansion 2023 #also yes I am happy a normal amount that there are more Valicer-type ideas going around (vibrates) #and yes it's true never been to a Disney park #because FUCKING EXPENSIVE YO #we looked up the costs to go one year when I was younger and YIKES #we did go to Floridian theme parks when I was a kid but it was pretty much always Universal Studios #which was still expensive but not AS bad #and had the Back To The Future ride then which is how I became a fan #but I do like the idea of Alice inheriting a mansion full of ghosts #if only because I bet it would take a while for the ghosts to convince her they're actually there #Alice just thinks they're a fun new hallucination and treats them as such #until one of them does something that makes her realize 'oh shit ghosts real' #fortunately at least one ghost is purely friendly #they keep leaving spirals on the walls for some reason but they've always got a smile #and then there's that weird pale guy from the nearby village #whom when she tells her about the ghost problem asks if any of them have tried to marry her #'. . .is that something I need to watch out for' #'well it sort of happened to me...' #it all works out in the end but is very weird getting there XD

watched alex's goodbye episode yesterday and i am conflicted

#from what i heard from people i thought it was gonna be something else entirely #i thought he was gonna screw up things with jo and be single and he'd be drunk most of the time #he'd fight someone to death or similar and he'd lose his career and fail to his potential #i had heard some izzie whispers but i didnt know how that was gonna play out #and i see why people hate it but as an izziealex truther.... part of me is so happy 😭 #but then i look at the bigger picture and IT DOESNT ADD UP #the writers never managed to write izziealex like they deserve and this is it #and also jo being colateral damage is sooooo evil and so badly done #in the last few seasons i've grown to love jo and her relationship with alex #them getting married for real... only for a half a season later alex leave her for izzie? #just doesnt add upppppp #i think bc my expectations were genuinely alex is gonna end a criminal i am not as disappointed as i thought i would be #i think that if they had explored this storyline and brought katherine back it would make more sense #or if they had shown us everything that alex said he did (contacting izzie seeing the kids and the farm their chemistry) #i dont wish he had been killed off but there really wasnt that many ways to explain him being gone #i just wish him and jo never got married. they should have forgotten about the marriage license a bit longer. put a rift between them for #whatever reason #bc alex truly would never leave jo #im sad im never seeing alex and mer together again 😭 #maggie and amelia are INSUFFERABLE #isa.txt

my college roommate (who i was rlly close with at the time until she dropped out to get married to The Worst Man In The World) wrote a novel about a group of people who were close in college and drifted apart and there's a couple in it based on me and my spouse

#she's VERY cynical about our relationship lmao #like they're too perfect to be real they must be hiding things from each other #nope we're super honest with each other we just uh #got married because we adore each other and we have so much fun together #which seems like a good reason to me! #i'm reading the preview to this novel on amazon #i wonder if she'll put in the gay stuff we did together lmao #her book has zero reviews i kinda wanna buy it and give it a review #but it's Not Good #like the prose is very on the nose #and idk maybe it just seems extremely self indulgent bc i know her but it's Tedious #i still wanna read it tho #i sent a link to one of our friends from college and she was like SCREAM let's do a book club about it

[splatoonmaster69]

actually thinking about the mom accidently faking her death incident again like its not funny but its really funny. who the fuck does that

#how to fake ur death apparently #1. talk to your son for the first time in years bcuz hes been avoiding talking w u ever since you lied about him being adopted #2. tell him that the heart issues he didnt know about from the car crash he barely remembers are getting worse and that you might die soon #3. stop talking to LITERALLY EVERYONE WHO KNOWS YOU for MONTHS #4. reappear to your other son with a 'teehee sorry lost my phone' #LIKE SERIOUSLY WHAT THE FUCK #HOW??? #top 10 greatest hits from the lady who was psychicly married to justin timberlake because god reasons #up there with the ur secretly an adopted european princess who needs to got back to 'her' real parents soon #and the taking 3 small young children to the airport for hours waiting for your psychic husband justin timberlake #i cant not laugh at this point. fucking incredible
