hello i saw in your tags that you don't think people on here get casey stoner and as someone relatively new into the sport i would love to hear your thoughts <3

(context here) okay first of all, this post will be framed as ‘things I wish people talked about more with regards to casey stoner’, rather than arguing against what I think people think

I've tried to come up with a concise response to this ask but kept heading into thesis-length territory. so I decided to write a bullet point list and it’s still… yeah… but well it could be worse. if you, dear anon, wish to read thousands of words of casey stoner lore then please let me know. otherwise, here are just a few things I find interesting about this bloke:

casey has a very complex relationship with the concept of confidence, both in other riders and himself, in the sense that he KNOWS how important it is but also believes/wishes that he specifically is kinda above all that

this feeds into how he wishes that racing were Just Racing and not all this other stuff… not his brain not his body not other racers being assholes on/off track not talking to journalists or doing photoshoots not having to deal with politics etc etc - central underlying tension of his career

he has openly spoken about not ever really enjoying race day, saying the only thing he's missed after retiring is qualifying. very perfectionist, the anxiety, the over-thinking, craving control… all key casey traits

(which also ties in with the valentino rivalry, because valentino obviously adores racing (in particular wheel-to-wheel battle) but he’s also great at all that other off-track stuff)

some very rigid ideas of How The Sport Should Look, which you can see in everything from how he talks about racing standards to the introduction of CRT riders (he had it OUT for them, head hot every time aleix espargaro shows up in parc fermé) to valentino’s influence on ducati and the importance of the colour red

let him have his mean streak! the grim satisfaction in discussing jorge’s 2008 injuries after his early-season arrogance towards casey, the dismissiveness towards dani, some of the wilder valentino remarks (this isn’t a criticism to be clear, alien-on-alien violence is part of the natural order of things)

casey is a classic case of ‘just because you’re paranoid, doesn’t mean they aren’t after you’. definitely a suspicious guy and perpetual underdog 'me against the world' mindset. not to get too psychoanalytic-y, but I reckon this was partly born out of how he had to leave australia as a teenager (with his family completely dependent on him succeeding) because of how the racing establishment down under fucked him over

they definitely were out to get him a lot of the time, cf yamaha and then ducati drama plus the slander from some of the greats of the sport, fellow riders, the media etc etc (particularly egregious in 2009 when he was dealing with his mystery illness and a lot of people said some pretty unpleasant stuff in his absence - here is just one example)

his struggles were constantly downplayed. the chronic fatigue misdiagnosed as lactose intolerance led to people calling him weak-minded, broken, running away from the sport (part of why he was so allergic to the idea his results might in any way be connected to what was going on in his head). add in the undiagnosed anxiety and you have all this invisible strife people wouldn't even take seriously

that being said, he definitely did have a propensity for jumping to the worst possible conclusions

two specific examples: firstly from his autobiography, where he makes the claim that valentino may have been sabotaged in the 2006 title decider and was deliberately given a rubbish tyre to make him lose the championship - to which casey’s response was: “welcome to my world, mate”. he does have a tendency to believe he’s being sabotaged, and is constantly on the look out for conspiracies even when they are… unlikely

the other example is mat oxley talking about his issues with casey in his stint working for ducati, partly based on a misunderstanding:

something allegedly written about him in 2001!

let’s just say he can definitely hold a grudge

the moaner stoner stuff was definitely nasty, calling him mopey and whiny and all of that, but he also has never shied away from some good old-fashioned complaining (some of this was a bit of a spiral - complaining for good reason worsening public perception of him leading to more reasons to complain)

see also the lingering marc grudge, who probably did play a significant part in getting casey kicked out of honda (as casey has accused him of). whether marquez prevented stoner from racing in 2015 is more of an open question. casey still speaks about how honda made a mistake by only listening to marc (which, again, does have some truth to it)

casey was always very quick to shut down the idea that momentum, motivation, confidence etc could affect his results (unlike that of his competitors) because he argues he was always very rational & clear-sighted about when things were his fault & when things could be blamed on the bike + extraneous factors. he really goes into detail about this when discussing 2008 laguna seca in his autobiography, which he argues had no effect on him psychologically (but was followed by him crashing out of the lead of the next two races)

has definitely spoken more about his rivalry with valentino than valentino has, which probably has also helped shape perception of it over time

on ‘ambition outweighed talent’ - I feel like people almost understate just what a (hilariously) out of pocket remark it was in context. it was rossi’s second ever race at ducati (and the start of his season was impacted by his shoulder issues) - and the rain meant he had a ~win it or bin it~ approach because he knew it was as good a chance as he might get for some time (despite starting from 12th). the move on stoner for second place was at best optimistic, most definitely impatient and at worst foolish - but sort of understandable in that situation, rossi was definitely rapid, and this stuff can happen in the wet. in that sense, it was obviously more a reaction to the manner of the apology (and his frustration with the stewards) than to what casey himself described as a racing incident

stoner made a remark in his autobiography about how rossi had stolen 25 points in a title battle he was never going to be a part of (oof). whether you're obligated to race title contenders differently is already a bit sketch but certainly should not be a consideration for anybody in round TWO

he was forced to publicly retract the remarks, though he doubled down on them to a deeply funny extent in his autobiography by suggesting they were true of valentino’s entire career and that he’d just benefited from a weak era. rossi mostly took it on the chin especially when interviewed about it for documentaries, probably because with something like that you do just need to take the L

it's understandable how it’s become such a defining image of their rivalry (along with laguna seca), not least because of how evocative the whole thing is - rossi showing up still wearing his helmet, trying to make a PR apology stick while he’s been eating nauseating amounts of humble pie at ducati; stoner casual as you like, pissed off about the points loss while still indulging in schadenfreude about how the Great Big Ducati Adventure is working out for rossi

but again, I think it’s funnier because of just HOW over the top an insult it was in that situation (and more broadly how it does have a different vibe to their interactions when they were meaningfully competing, aka 2007-2008)

in conclusion: casey has his doubts and his insecurities and his obsessions and his foibles… a complicated guy in his own right

and a big thing I’d like to stress here is that the rivalry with valentino does benefit from treating them both as somewhat unreliable narrators

I just think he's neat

#ty for giving me an excuse to be annoying at length about one of my number one guys!!#casey stoner #valentino rossi #motogp #//#cs27 #vr46 #lotsss of other stuff you can go into here. he gets a bit sanitised sometimes I feel which is kinda a shame #u can be justifiably resentful and still be very resentful. spite is still spiteful when it's deserved. same with the misanthropic streak #being called weak-minded really got to him imo - and the thing is he's clearly not (& good lord did some big names say some nasty things)#the autobiography feels almost an overcorrection and then you've got him recently talking more openly about his mental health #(even if not specifically about how it affected him competitively - which is obviously a related but not identical conversation)#it's an uplifting development in a way and it's nice seeing how much more comfortable in his skin he seems these days #but he is also a little bitch :)

Once again waisting every waking thought on a Rosquez soulmates!AU in which you actually get bruises and physical aches, when your soulmate says something bad about you with the intend to harm.

This is also how Marc realises, that he and Vale are actually soulmates, because as if everything isn't shit enough already after Sepang 2015 it just gets worse and worse, because everyday there is a new bruise, reminding him, that his soulmate hates him.

Marc spends most of his life with aches and bruises after that time, until they become somewhat civil again between 2016-2018 Argentina and there is only the occasional bruise, all forming somewhere during the day, never late at night. After that it gets even worse than it was in 2015. His entire body is covered at some point, making him weak and keeping him from training.

Alex is worried out of his mind of course and demands to know who is doing that to him. But as stubborn as Marc is, he won't tell and anyways, Marc knows, that Alex has a good guess. Whenever he sees a new bruise on his brother now, Alex searches through Valentino's recent interviews. More often than not, he finds something.

Marc knows, that Alex knows, but he also knows that his brother knows, that it is probably a lost cause to go to Vale and ask him to stop.

Valentino never found a bruise on himself that 'didn't belong'. That's why he's so sure, that Marc isn't his soulmate. Because surely, there would have been things said. Surely.

That's also why he is so shocked, when a completly livid, but also desperate looking Alex Marquez one day storms into the VR46 garage falls onto his knees and nothing but begs him: "Honestly stop. You are killing him."

Rosquez Onlyfans au, part 9????

A little porn, a little plot. Vale takes pictures of Marc and is absolutely insane for him lolll

thank you to everyone who has sent me sweet messages and asks! I'm always willing to shout about these losers in the asks or my dms!

Marc wakes up next to Vale the next morning, still nude and sore from the night before, feeling like he’s still dreaming. Vale is warm, wrapped around him, and breathing softly in his ear. Marc can’t help but wiggle back against him, trying to snuggle deeper into the blankets and into Vale’s arms.

Vale huffs in his ear and squeezes Marc closely. Marc can feel him smile against his neck.

He rolls his hips back again, trying to see if he can get Vale to take interest. The older man drops a hand to Marc’s hip, and keeps him in place as he rolls his own hips forward.

Marc sighs in satisfaction as he feels Vale’s cock rub against his ass.

“Good morning,” Vale says, voice rough.

Marc rolls over and tugs Vale on top of him. Vale props himself up on his elbows and kisses Marc slowly and deeply. It’s unhurried but passionate, and Marc tangles his fingers in Vale’s hair. He plays with the little curls at the nape of his neck, twisting them around his fingers.

He never thought he would actually have this. He wonders if he should pinch himself to make sure he’s not dreaming.

Vale rocks his hips down, rocking his cock against Marc’s and pressing the smaller man into the mattress. Marc slides the hand not in Vale’s hair down his back, pressing on the man’s lower back to keep him pressing down on Marc.

“Please,” Marc begs.

Vale drags his lips down to Marc’s neck, and Marc can feel him smile.

“Please what?” Vale prompts, smugly.

“Please fuck me,” Marc whines.

“You asked so nicely,” Vale praises.

He kisses Marc sweetly then sits up, pushing himself slightly down the bed so he can kiss at Marc’s hip bone. Marc spreads his legs and Vale tugs Marc’s hips closer, gripping Marc’s cock with one hand and then pressing his mouth to Marc’s hole.

Marc gasps, grabbing Vale’s hair. The old man pulls back enough to smirk at him, then dives back in. He strokes Marc’s cock with one hand while he licks around Marc’s hole. Marc tries to relax, but the sensation is so foreign to him.

Vale is patient, pumping Marc’s cock while he licks around Marc’s hole and gets him nice and wet. Marc is whining by the time Vale finally slips his tongue inside him, pushing past the ring of muscle.

Marc cries out, startled by the foreign sensation and the realization that yes, Vale actually has his tongue inside him. Marc’s cock twitches and he can feel himself coming closer and closer to coming.

“Vale, stop,” he says. “I’m going to come.”

Vale lets go of his cock but licks at his hole for a little longer, before sitting up with a grin. He feels soaking wet, but Vale still pauses to hunt for the lube.

He makes quick work of fingering Marc the rest of the way open, and then Marc gets what he is desperate for. He rolls onto his hands and knees, arching his back, and Vale pushes his cock inside slowly.

He breathes heavily as he does, and Marc is once again thankful that he gets to hear these noises from the older man. It’s enough to make his cock twitch where it hangs heavy between his legs.

“That’s it,” Vale says, as Marc drops down to rest on his elbows, ass in the air.

Vale fucks roughly into him, filling him up, and then pauses after a few moments.

“Hand me my phone,” he instructs.

Marc reaches for it, stretching a bit so he can reach it without pulling himself away from Vale’s cock. He thinks he knows what Vale is going to do, and he has to reach down with one hand to grip his cock and prevent himself from coming at the thought.

He looks over his shoulder to see Vale holding the phone up, face concentrated as he takes a selfie of himself fucking into Marc. It startles a laugh out of Marc, and Vale turns to grin at him. He thrusts hard into him, and Marc drops his head back to his forearms. He’s not sure what Vale does with the camera after that, because he loses himself in the sensation of being fucked hard into the mattress.

He moans and whimpers, vocal as always, and despite his best efforts he doesn’t make it long before he’s coming hard all over the sheets.

Vale groans as he continues fucking him, and Marc can tell by the stuttering rhythm of his thrusts that Vale isn’t going to last long either.

“Please,” Marc begs. “Please come inside me.”

Vale curses and then fucks into him once, twice, and then buries himself as deep as he can. Marc squeezes his hole around Vale and laughs as the older man groans behind him.

“Fuck,” Vale says again, before pulling out gently.

Marc makes a face as he feels Vale’s cum drip out of him, and he scoots up the bed to avoid the wet spot.

“Did you take pictures?” he asks, as Vale settles himself on the bed next to him.

Vale unlocks his phone and scrolls, showing Marc the selfie followed by the pictures he took. Marc’s cock makes a valiant effort to get hard again, especially as Vale shows him the video he took; he managed to take a shaky video of himself coming inside Marc, and then a glimpse of his cum slipping out of Marc’s hole.

“Wow,” Marc says, in awe. “You’re going to keep those, right?”

Vale laughs.

“Obviously.”

Vale and Marc have a lazy, slow morning, until Vale mentions taking him to the track and Marc practically vibrates with excitement. Vale rolls his eyes good naturedly, but manages to quickly get Marc settled with gear.

The gear all looks new, and for a moment Marc wonders if Vale bought this all for him. He’s too shy to ask, though, so he accepts it gratefully and tries not to shake with excitement as they load the car and head to the track.

Marc is surprised to see another car there, and when they get out and gear up Marc sees Luca Marini in the box, seemingly preparing his bike.

There’s an awkward greeting where Luca recognizes him and Marc has to calm his heart after realizing Luca recognizes him from racing together in the past, not from his online endeavors. The thought of Luca having seen him in the same compromising positions as Vale is a little too much for his heart to take.

The awkwardness is quickly abated as Vale gets him set up with a bike, and Luca seems to take a liking to him.

When they get on the track, Marc loses all sense of time. He does lap after lap with Vale, unable to stop smiling, as he adjusts to the shape and texture of the track.

He’s riding one of Vale’s bikes, number 46 plastered on the front, and the helmet Vale gave him is bright yellow. Marc feels like he’s dreaming. He never expected that he would ever end up here, and he’s so endlessly thankful.

When they stop for lunch, Luca eats with them then takes his polite leave. Marc rubs his arm, and Vale looks curiously at him.

“Is it hurting?”

Marc shrugs.

“A little. I haven’t ridden in a while and it flares up when I use it too much.”

“What happened?” Vale asks. “You used to ride a lot, right?”

It’s a fair question, but Marc shifts awkwardly in his seat. It’s still sometimes heavy to talk about, and he doesn’t want to sour their day with it.

“I’ll tell you all about it someday,” he promises. “I used to race, and I made it to Moto2 but I didn’t last long. I crashed and broke my arm, and with the surgery and recovery I needed there wasn’t a way for me to return.”

Vale looks horrified and saddened at that, but Marc waves his hand in dismissal, as if to brush the thoughts away. “It’s alright. Things work out, no? I’m here with you now.”

Vale looks thoughtful at that.

“Will you be okay to get back on the bike?”

Marc grins, eyes alight.

“You’d have to cut my arm off to keep me off that bike, Vale.”

#god they're so insane #i know i'm writing this but i'm literally disgusted by how corny they are #like vale calm DOWN we get it you're obsessed #the long-awaited meeting of the rest of the academy is next #onlyfans au #rosquez #marc marquez #valentino rossi #mm93 #vr46

Part 2

Marc knows mean.

Mean is the way Valentino presses on the jutting v-line of his hip as he takes his cock into his callused hand. Thumbing at the mushroom head, shark-like smile on his lips as he flicks his wrist, throwing his head back with delighted laughter as Marc whimpers and writhes beneath him. Sliding a finger through the mess on Marc's spasming washboard abs and pushes it into Marc's mouth. Using the tissue on the bedside table to clean his finger before throwing the box at Marc with a snarled 'clean yourself' and then leaving the room with a resounding click of the door.

Valentino is especially mean when they lock eyes in the paddock after illicit rendezvous, and he shoots Marc a devious smirk that catches at his stomach. When he turns his attention back to Marco, pressing a hand to his curls, pressing a kiss to the high of his cheekbones. When he tells Marc in no uncertain terms that he might not be the only one.

Marc resists the urge to run to Marco, tell him 'he's going to ruin you', 'you will never be the same again', 'Valentino Rossi destroys' but he knows it won't work. He knows Marco resents him, and he knows how it feels to want to be destroyed by a god.

Valentino is mean when he rubs comforting circles over Marc's hip to soothe the pain of the stretch. When his forehead furrows with the exertion of wanting this to be good for Marc, when his lips rest on Marc's protruding collarbones to distract him from the pain. When tears gather at his eyes at their simultaneous release. What stings the most is when he slides the duvet over them both and pulls Marc into his arms, when he's so uncertain about his place, Valentino tells him.

Valentino is most mean when he presses a hand to Marco's cheek after pressing that same hand into Marc's stomach to pull him closer. He is most mean when he lulls Marc into thinking he is his, when really anyone can be his, everyone would like to be his. He is most mean when he presses a kiss to Marco's forehead and, in no uncertain terms, tells Marc, 'What makes you so special?'

It makes Marc want to storm across the paddock, press a finger into Valentino's chest and start the interrogation. 'What are we?', 'Am I yours?', 'Am I the only one?' But one does not question a god. One does not doubt a god.

You submit.

Yes, Marc knows mean.

Analysing Valentino Rossi's handwriting

okay so to preface this so I don't have to explain myself if I ever get anything wrong:

1. I have lost most of my knowledge regarding graphology after I got deep into it about 4 years ago. I rediscovered it about 3 days ago. Moreover, I'm just a girl on the internet, not a scholar. Some things might be inaccurate.

2. Graphology is considered a pseudo-science. There is no empirical evidence backing up graphology; if it's more understandable that way, think of it as analyzing someone's birth charts.

3. I generally do not know the people whose handwriting I analyze. I nor know what Valentino Rossi is like in real life, and neither will I ever. This is for funsies <3 I just enjoy graphology.

4. An important, somewhat unspoken, rule of graphology is that it's imperative I keep aside my knowledge of what I've seen him act like in public and focus solely on what the page tells me.

5. ALSO. Our handwriting has fixed as well as unfixed traits. For example, your IQ is fixed, likewise, your aptitudes, temperament, and identity are all fixed. There are unfixed traits as well in our handwriting. They keep changing depending on the conditions. Your abilities, attitudes, moods, beliefs, motivational level, and physical conditions are unfixed traits. People's handwriting also changes depending on whether they are writing for themselves (eg. a personal note, journal) or for someone else (eg. a letter <- like the sample currently at hand !)

6. I will sound nerdy at times as I might quote some graphology experts or use their works verbatim from their books. I have tried to keep it as simple as possible but still, if anything is unclear/your opinions vary, asks are always open <3

*****Text in italics are random comments that shouldn't be included in any professional graphology analysis document but are there because this is a TUMBLR POST******

Now, the actual analysis

1. Initial Impression

This is a “normal” writing sample at first glance. Form quality doesn't reflect over-embellished or neglectful form. The writing is legible, which is expected considering it is a letter. The handwriting is slightly middle zone dominant(explanation in section 8.) indicating a bit of self-centredness and concern regarding day-to-day life. There are a lot of things crossed off which may show emotional distress at the time of writing the sample. I also noticed the large spacing between the lines at first glance and it generally shows fear of isolation(he was leaving Yamaha 💀) and distrust. There are also some arcades and garlands at the end of words(explanation in section 10). WEIRDASS LOWER ZONES.

But mainly, it's so… erratic; the baseline is erratic, the slant is mostly vertical but still erratic at times, and the way he crosses off so much stuff is an indicator of emotional distress.

2. Baseline

The baseline is the imaginary line running from left to right at the same level. It is on this imaginary line that letters rest on dividing upper and lower areas while moving forward to the right. Any movement horizontally along the baseline represents your reaction to experiences, living values, time demands, and learning. Right motion is to advance, expand, and progress and left motion is to revert, constrict, and regress. The baseline reveals 1. attitudes about reaching our goals, 2. the kind of mental energy we apply to our life situations, and 3. our general moods.

Initial lines in the sample display a “Moody” baseline or an erratic baseline(some authors call it a “sinuous” baseline). When a baseline has a number of ups and downs, or ascending and descending it is called erratic. Of course, it shows the moodiness of the person. They may laugh and cry easily and have lots of ups and downs in their lives. They are unbalanced as the handwriting shows. This is not to be confused with an incoherent, aka, ”sociopathic baseline”.

HOWEVER, the end of the sample follows a stable baseline which is an indicator that the person shows controlled/consistent behaviour to the outward world. A straight line is a straightforward path and its meaning is a firm, unchanging foundation. Its positive qualities are straightness, discipline, willpower, constancy of purpose, and responsibility. Its negative aspect impact is inflexibility.

I wish I had more samples to confirm my thoughts and form a consistent opinion because I cannot conclude a single baseline pattern followed by the person. Language and cultural upbringing differences also don’t help.

3. Slant

A handwriting can be a. just vertical; it stands straight on a baseline as though at 90 degrees. b. inclined to the right or c. inclined to the left. Further, it can be lightly inclined, very inclined, or acutely reclined. In general:

Leftward slant writers are emotionally cold and defiant, self-centered, and/or selfish. Overly leftward can be very emotionally sick. Extremely left slants often indicate past trauma and/or inability to move on/ recover.

Upright/vertical slant reveals emotional reserve, suppression, and self-reliance. The person acts not with his/her heart but with the head. The person can be cool under pressure.

One’s right slant indicates compliance with people. The person is emotionally expressive. The person will act according to emotions. Here pressure levels reveal how intense the emotions are expressed. Overly right slant writer cannot control his/her emotions.

Variable slants betray mostly an emotionally unstable person.

I had a terrible time with this one because even when I superimposed a chart on it, it was still unclear which slant it follows. Rossi’s handwriting appears to go in all directions however it is seldom on the extreme ends(ie, acutely inclined to the right or acutely reclined to the left. Both of these are “abnormal” and rare.)

If we write with an unstable slant, we feel pulled in different directions. An unstable slant is a wobbling slant. At one moment the person is affectionate and at another moment he is aloof. The more unstable a wobble, the more unstable is the writer. The interpretation of the slant is based on the universal concept of ‘left versus right.’ Usually, people associate the left with the past and the right with the future. If the left and the right represent the past and the future, then the centre represents the present.

4. Size

Size simply refers to whether the writing is large or small. Of course, there are many categories in size, like large, overly large, medium, small, or overly small (microscopic). It is an unfixed trait. Because, depending upon the mood, people write sometimes small and at other times big. It also depends upon the paper on which they write.

Valentino’s handwriting again follows a somewhat irregular pattern when it comes to size. I say this because size changing over a few lines is completely normal but irregular size between words shows emotional instability.

According to Karen Amend et al, “variable letter sizes, that is, middle zone letters ranging in size from 1116th of an inch upwards, show a writer who is emotionally off-balance a good deal of the time. Too much caught up in his own feelings, he is likely to be self-centered, overly expressive, indecisive, and childish. Those around him often find him moody and immature, but not always without charm.”

(I do not agree with this description too much but this is all i could find regarding unstable size)

The letters enlargen in the middle of the sample, especially when he mentions someone by their name. If a certain word or name becomes suddenly bigger in comparison with other words in the same line, then we can conclude that the writer has invested some emotions either positive in the person or thing signified by that particular word that got enlarged. When we hold somebody or something in high esteem, then automatically that word gets enlarged in our writing. On the contrary, if we have less regard, and think less of the person, then the word automatically shrinks.

5. Margin

NARROW UPPER MARGIN

In short, it shows informality. If your handwriting leaves a very narrow margin on the top, it is an indication that you are informal with the person to whom you write. It shows informality and familiarity. Just because you are comfortable with the person, you start writing from the very beginning. (this does match with the contents of the sample at hand)

(Not much more to say really, the margins are wide on left and right side but it doesn't favor one side, which shows a balance/peace with their past as well future)

6. Speed

Speed refers to how fast or slow one writes. It measures how quickly or slowly an individual thinks and acts, the person’s intelligence level, and finally the degree of spontaneity and honesty. When we speak of speed, we are referring to the natural speed of the writer in thought, action, and reaction. All of us have an optimum speed at which we think and act most comfortably. If one is forced for a long time to go faster or slower than the optimum speed that will end up in difficulties. Speed tells of the intelligence and spontaneity of the writer.

There are barely any signs that the sample was written in a rushed or sloppy manner. He does leave a few large gaps in between which indicate uncertainty and the writer is possibly taking time to gather their thoughts before putting them onto paper.

7. Spacing

SPACING WITHIN WORDS

The distance that the writer places between the letters shows how he relates on a personal level to other people. Valentino’s handwriting shows more or less balanced and normal spaces within words. There is occasional tanglin but not to a concerning degree. A normal, well-balanced spacing within the letter shapes and between them shows a personality that is balanced and flexible in relationship to others, with the ability for both closeness and reserve where appropriate.

SPACING BETWEEN WORDS

The space left between the written words represents the distance that the writer would like to maintain between himself and society at large. Rossi’s handwriting has rather narrow spaces between words. Very narrow spaces between the words show someone who will crowd others for attention, craving constant contact and closeness. Such a writer can be selfish in his demands and unwilling to give of his own time and energies to others.

SPACING BETWEEN LINES

The amount of space that the writer leaves between the lines on the page gives clues to the orderliness and clarity of his thinking, and to the amount of interaction that he wishes to have with his environment. Overall the sample at hand shows normal to slightly wide spacing between lines. There isn’t much tangling(sign of confusion/jumbled ideas) between the lines and neither are the lines excessively far apart(signs of suspicions and hostility). Normal spacing has its own personal harmony and flexibility.

8. Zones

This is the most complex thing in graphology to me personally but to oversimplify, the three zones and what aspects they relate to are as follows:

I. Upper: fantasy, spirit, intellect, creativity, imagination

Ii. Middle: social life, daily life, everyday concerns

Iii. Lower: instinctual self and drives for security, materialistic things, biological needs

People can have a writing that is balanced across all zones or they may have a dominating zone. Valentino’s handwriting is overall middle zone dominant. According to Karen Amend et al, “If the Middle Zone is Strongly Developed, but neither the upper nor lower zones are, the writer is overly concerned for himself and his own daily activities. His self-assurance borders on presumptuousness and conceit, and he will make great issues of trivial things. The danger to this sort of writer is boredom and confinement in a self-centered world. ”

This is a somewhat pessimistic and outdated view of this trait(and respectfully I hate it <3). Most students today actually tend to have this type of handwriting and it’s quite common. While it is a somewhat “childish” trait, it may show the person’s extroversion and general concern over daily concerns. (This view is what I believe in more than the weird self-centred blah blah explanation.)

9. Printing & Cursive Writing

To oversimplify, print writing = intellectual/methodical person/head-over-heart or trying to be coherent. Cursive = fast/connected thoughts.

Valentino mixes these two and it is considered an example of efficient breaks in print-cursive handwriting. It is quite common and indicates that the writer is intelligent, succinct, efficient, direct and fast, and simple in writing.

10. Connecting Strokes

(This was another aspect I had a hard time with because I am so out of touch with the knowledge I used to have.)

There are 4 types of connecting strokes: garland, angles, thread, and arcades.

(I’ve already written more than anyone wishes to read so I'll just jump to the conclusions instead of explaining each.) He uses a lot of garlands(upward strokes) as connecting strokes. If you write with garland connectors, then you are open, friendly, sociable, affectionate, flexible, ready to establish a link with others and communicate easily. Garlands are associated with openness and friendliness. More women than men seem to use garland connectors.

Garland is an image of round and open and is sincere, receptive, and obliging. Hence the positive qualities are feminine traits, friendliness, kindliness, natural behaviour, lack of formality, receptiveness, and adjustability. Socially, they are adaptable and flexible, but their strong need for security makes them feel threatened by any changes in their home, family, or lifestyle. These types are expressive yet conventional. They want communication with and acceptance by other people.

11. Signatures

Signature reveals: one’s public self-image, self-confidence, egotism, self-destruction, diversity, and creativity. Signature is the sum and substance of your public self-image. It shows how one behaves in public, how one acts around others, and in short, one’s social persona.

Signature larger than the script

The writer is advertising and wishes to be recognized as an important person. Pride, self-esteem, ambition, and self-confidence are shown. (also a sign of vanity)

Creative Signature

The graphic imagery of the creative signature will mirror or express the nature of the creative drive, as in the beat of music, the stroke of brush or pen, or creative imagery that reflects the professional involvement.

Ascending Signatures

This is a sign that the person feels good about his public image.

12. Letter Specific traits

Capital 'A'

The 'A' seems to be written in a single stroke retracting back up which may show intelligence and originality.
