The Nine Houses texting styles

(I haven't included any characters from Nona the Ninth bc I Haven't Read It Yet)

Harrow: Starts every text with "Dear [name]," and ends with "Harrowhark Nonagesimus, Reverend Daughter of the Ninth House" like a forum signature

Gideon: Lots of keysmashes. Lots of typos. Uses txtspk liberally. Harrow spends most of their conversations correcting Gideon's grammar

Ortus: Responds every time with a video message, no matter what he's replying to. Hasn't yet figured out where the microphone on his phone is so the audio is always muffled

Judith: Will call you

Marta: Will call you on Judith's phone

Coronabeth: So many emojis. Will sometimes reply in just emojis. Ends every text with a 🌹 or "xoxo". Thoughts are broken up into multiple texts (e.g. "Oh don't" "worry about it" "it's fine")

Ianthe: Forgets to text you back for at least 12 hours every time. Screenshots every convo for drama. Refuses to save anyone's number and so always starts a convo with "who is this"

Naberius: Doesn't own a phone

Isaac: Replies exclusively in reaction images. Will not text first

Jeannemary: Will spend 20 minutes agonizing over the proper response, before finally deciding on "Sounds good"

Magnus: Will laugh out loud rather than sending "lol". Doesn't understand slang terms (will follow up a butt dial with "sorry didn't mean to booty call you)

Abigail: Uses way too many gifs, all from her favorite show that went off the air 20 years ago. Texts are signed "Sent from my iPhone"

Palamades: One word replies with periods. Frequently sends random videos (like sewage treatment techniques) with "thought this would interest you"

Camilla: Somehow has a meme for every situation. If she doesn't have one she'll make it herself with a shockingly quick turnaround.

Dulcinea: Sends one-word texts with no clarification. Criminally misuses emojis (e.g. "Movie? 🍆"). Will not clarify when asked

Protesilaus: Is dead. Hasn't figured out how to get a ghost phone yet

Silas: Sends selfies from way too low an angle with text overlayed like a Snapchat. Will spam you if you're a minute late

Colum: So many ellipses... Ends every text with them...

Mercymorn: Still has a flip-phone with a pre-paid plan. Gets mad when people send her multiple texts in a row because it costs her $0.15 to open each one

Gideon the First: Does not text. Will instead show up at your house asking you to explain yourself

Augustine: Over-relies on speech-to-text. Texts are full of "what no I said duck not duck you stupid machine no duck oh John damn it"

Cytherea: Waits for you to text first. Gets mad when you don't.

John: Long rambling voice notes where he frequently gets distracted, leaving minutes at a time of awkward silence

Female-fronted February - Masterpost

So, that was that month, I guess. Time flies. For your convenvience, here are all the albums in one post :) Spotify is linked here along with the posts, additional streaming links can be found within the posts. If you haven’t been following along the TL;DR is that I’ve been spending my February picking out a new female-fronted album every day. It’s been fun. There’s both some hidden gems as well as some well-respected icons, spread over a good mix of genres. A playlist of all the albums can be found here (in all it’s nearly 20 hours glory), and a shorter version with a few songs from each album (handpicked by yours truly xoxo) can be found here. Statistics for said playlist (including more specific genres, at the bottom) can be found here, if you’re into that sort of thing. Have fun!

#1: Vulpes - Vulpes (x) #2: Liima Innui - Republik / Liima Innui - Inri (x / x) #3: Maud Lindström - Strategivisor för kärlekskritiker (x) #4: Otoboke Beaver - Otoboke Beaver (x) #5: Sibongile Khumalo - Ancient Evenings (x) #6: Jacqueline Taïeb - Jacqueline Taïeb (x) #7: Alisha Chinai - Kamasutra (x) #8: Sabrina Malheiros - Equilibria (x) #9: Eneida Marta - Lôpe Kaï (x) #10: 海朋森 / Hiperson - 她从广场回来 (She Came Back From the Square) (x) #11: Maria Peszek - Jezus Maria Peszek (x) #12: Dobet Gnahoré - Couleur (x) #13: Joanne Shenandoah - Peacemaker’s Journey (x) #14: Hans-A-Plast - Hans-A-Plast (x) #15: Rasha - Sudaniyat (x) #16: Rossa - Rossa (x) #17: Sister Carol - Black Cinderella (x) #18: Kareyce Fotso - Mokte (x) #19: Nanna - Små Blå Breve (x) #20: 이달의 소녀 오드아이써클 [LOONA ODD EYE CIRCLE] - Max & Match (x) #21: Ivy Queen - En Mi Imperio (x) #22: Shaddaï Ndomboxe - Raison (x) #23: Googoosh - Pol (x) #24: Nótár Mary - Cigánylány (x) #25: Pastorita Huaracina - Nuestro Tesoro (x) #26: Najwa Karam - شمس الغنية / Chams El-Ghinnieh (x) #27: Lijadu Sisters - Danger (x) #28: Giusy Ferreri - Fotografie (x)

So, yeah, end of the project! Would I do it again? Probably. Was it time-consuming? Definitely. At the moment I’m working on a women’s music canon (because gen canons tend to have around 15% women (*including mixed group and being very generous in my counting) and I think that’s a well shame.

Really, what this is, is an encouragement to seek out more female artists, old and new. They deserve to be heard. The music industry has historically been terribly male-centric - it’s about time to center the women once in a while, don’t you think?

hello just a couple of questions for the fic writers ask game 23 26 32 39 xoxo your biggest fan

23. What’s your absolute favorite trope to write?

oooo i wish i knew. i guess alternate universes? though i never usually SET OUT with that goal. most of my favorite fics that i've written happen to have been decently long au's that i've written, so i suppose those.

26. What’s your biggest distraction when writing?

myself lmao. writing requires concentration and decent chunks of time so i know if i sit down to do it that's at least a couple of hours. i have to decided if i want to commit more or watch tv/gif more because those things cannot be done at one let me tell YOU.

32. Copy and paste your top three favorite lines/jokes/sentences you’ve ever written. What fics do they come from?

"Cheeks turning a deeper shade of red, she shoves him a little before tugging on the hem of her dress and strutting out of the shadows like she owned them. In the case of the ones that smoked behind her, a little protection in the natural shade of the night, Tandy basically did."

this is from this four plus one fic i did for cloak and dagger called oh your kiss is the cure to a thousand lonely nights which i do enjoy. unfortunately marta it has spoilers for you so sjjhsjg.

"The ghost of his hand from that memory passes reassuring and persuasive over the freckled lines of her back and it makes Haley sit up in her chair in the present. Her hand, the one whose jewelry marked always and forever, scratches at the nape of her neck and hides the shiver she feels at the echo of Nathan's calloused, talent holding hand making a gentle fist in her hair. Dear God. She needed to get a grip."

this is from this one tree hill naley fic set in s2. horny babies in class. still proud of it. it's called something that'll haunt me when you're not around.

"It was unheard of, how he changed around her. How she brought out the young, smartass as well as calculating lawyer Aleksander had been in the beginning. Before time had whittled away at the layers of him until calculating was near all that was left. Victory, undoubted and conclusive, the only thing he cared about while he was forced to wait. Alina brought out something more alive in him, whenever she was around. Anyone that knew Aleksander, actually knew him, a list he could count one hand and still have enough fingers left to pleasure, could tell the difference the moment she would leave a room. Like sunlight behind a thundercloud, lightning and dark skies that reminded of what was always there, even under the humanizing touch her very presence had."

this is from my most recent favorite fic, a soul whose intentions are good which is a little darklina suits au you MAY have heard about.

39. What’s something about your writing that you pride yourself on?

i've said this to multiple people, but PICTURING. like if i'm reading my own work and i can see the whole scene and characters in my mind and it makes sense to me, then i'm happy. i personally dislike reading things that feel very ooc, or get confused as to where i am in the scene, so i really strive to not have that happen in my own fics.

i'm also really proud of my progress with description, i suffer from never being sure how much should be elaborated on of whats happening, but i'm quite pleased with the balance i have right now.

I wish you would write a fic where Loki and Sigyn try to one-up each other pranking Thor, Valkyrie and the Avengers while on Earth. (Thanks, and Happy New Year! xoxo)

Dear Anon, I know you probably don’t remember sending me this ask, considering you sent it on New Years Day - two years ago - but better later than never, right? (Set post-Ragnarok, minus Thanos)

Loki’s return to Earth had notexactly been celebrated, but the Avengers needed him on an upcoming mission so hispresence was tolerated. Eventually they reached the end of their patience andso he was sent to annoy Doctor Strange at the New York Sanctum. He had to begrudgingly admit that theircollection of magical knowledge and artifacts was impressive, though it paledin comparison to Asgard’s. And didn’t he feel that loss keenly? He’d managed tosquirrel away almost a hundred of his most treasured volumes into his personalpocket dimension during his all to brief reign as king but there were hundreds of thousandsmore that had been lost to the fires of Ragnarok.

The Sanctum also held another mysterioustreasure.

“Sigyn? Is that name supposed tomean something to me?” Loki replied with disinterest, not bothering to raisehis eyes from his latest book.

“It should,” Strange smirked.“She’s your wife reincarnated.”

At that Loki deigned to raise hiseyes, flitting from the irritating Strange to the mortified initiate besidehim. She was fair of face and hair, the latter pulled back in elaborate braidsthat fell down to her shoulder blades, and she wore thick gloves on her hands inaddition to the standard burgundy garb of any initiate of Kamar-Taj.

“Is this a reference to yourlurid mythologies?” Loki drawled. “Because in truth I have never taken a wife.Though if you wish me to take her off your hands I would require a substantialdowry, say the Axe of Angarrumus? I received Thor’s name in Stark’s wintersolstice gift giving game and such a weapon would mean I don’t have to lowermyself to visiting one of Midgard’s marketplaces.”

Rather than reply Strange huffedwith irritation and flounced out of the room (the sorcerer may have justturned, the Cape of Levitation did all the flouncing). The woman gave him acurt bow before disappearing into the rows of shelving, and Loki would haveforgotten all about her the moment she was gone from his sight if Strangehadn’t screamed his name as he stormed back into the library less than a minutelater.

Loki laughed. He couldn’t helpit. The Sorcerer Supreme was standing in the middle of the room, his dark bluerobes now emerald green and his famed cloak a blinding gold, as his face turnedan interesting shade of red. It was the best thing he’d seen since the Hulk hadthrown Thor around like a ragdoll in the arena.

“What? It wasn’t me,” Loki arguedas Strange continued to glare at him after he’d been able to stop laughing.

With one flick of his wrists thesorcerer changed his robes back to their original hue and with another he cutthe legs off Loki’s chair, causing the Asgardian to fall on his ass with athud.

Loki was dusting himself off whenthe woman, Sigyn, reappeared, a heavy tome in her arms and a small smileplaying on her lips.

“It was nice to meet you,” she saidin lightly accented English before leaving the room via a portal she’dconjured.

Loki stared at the space she hadoccupied for a long minute before smiling to himself, “Interesting.”

In the days leading up to theMidgard winter solstice celebrations Loki thought of the curious Sigyn often,and though he frequented the Sanctum he had not seen her again, and dared notask Strange as to her whereabouts and give away his interest. In the end she came to him, arriving via a portal on the balcony of Stark’stower along with Strange and two other sorcerers, a hour late for Stark’sChristmas party.

Since they had last crossed pathsSigyn had apparently completed her training, having exchanged her initiaterobes for more formal ones of grey overlayed with a dark purple sleeveless coatwith silver embroidery. She still wore gloves the same shade as her robes, andtoyed nervously with the bindings. Stark was being his obnoxious self as heintroduced the sorcerers to the rest of the superheroes, scientists, andobligatory celebrities gathered on the 68th floor, and just as Lokiwas sure that Strange was about to push Stark through a portal to the farreaches of the universe, the Man of Iron was distracted by his AI systemintroducing the newest arrivals to step off the elevator – in Latin. Their hostsufficiently distracted, the sorcerers began to mingle (Strange making for oneJane Foster, the next smartest person in the room, much to Thor’s thinly veiledannoyance), and Loki made his way over to Sigyn.

“That was a nice trick.”

“I have no idea what you’retalking about,” she replied automatically as she took a glass of somethingbubbly from a passing waiter.

“Of course you don’t,” Lokismiled. “Just as I have no idea what’s going on over there,” he said, pointingto the bar where Valkyrie was trying drink after drink, growing more frustratedas each turned to water on her tongue.

Sigyn stifled a laugh beforegazing around the room in search of her next target. The slight twitching ofher fingers was the only indication that she had made her play and it was a fewminutes before Loki understood what it was. There was a small commotion acrossthe room and the man out of time stumbled away from a group of overly affectionatedebutantes, a sprig of mistletoe followed him. If he stayed in one place forlonger than five seconds the mistletoe hovered over his head and the peopleclosest to him felt compelled to kiss him. It resulted in the good captainrunning laps of the room as he cursed Stark for inventing some sort ofmistletoe drone.

As the party guests laughed Sigynraised an eyebrow in challenge but before Loki could contemplate his next movea loud slap rang out. All eyes turned to find Doctor Strange getting chewed outby Doctor Foster before the petite brunette stormed off.

Sigyn gasped. “What did you do?”

“It wasn’t me. Itseems as though the Sorcerer Supreme is fully capable of making an ass out ofhimself without my assistance.”

They watched as Thor made tofollow Doctor Foster and the moment he caught up with her Loki sliced the airwith his arm, sending the former lovers flying into a storage closet at the endof the hall. He immediately sealed the room – no one would be able to heartheir cries for aid and for all Thor’s strength he would not be able to breakout of the room before dawn’s first light hit the tower.

“Really?” Sigyn scoffed.

“They have been tiptoeing aroundeach other for weeks. It’s been painful to watch. One way or another it endstonight.”

“Fair enough,” she mused as hersharp gazed scanned the room. With a sly smile she ran a finger around the rimof her glass and half the room fell silent before findingthemselves singing a rather passionate rendition of “Santa Claus is Comin’ ToTown”.

Loki barely had a moment to enjoythe confusion before he felt a sharp pinch between his ribs.

“That’s enough,” the widowcommanded, pressing a blade so hard against his side it pierced through hisleather vestments.

Before Loki could proclaim hisinnocence Sigyn took a sip from her glass and the chaos fizzled out intoconfused laughter and the sounds of drinks being topped up. Loki breathed asigh of relief as the blade was removed from his side.

“If you can’t behave yourself itmight be better for your health if you retired for the evening,” the widowsuggested before rejoining her friends.

“Haha,” Sigyn chortled into herdrink. “You lose.”

“How so?”

“You got caught,” Sigyn repliedas though it were obvious.

“But it wasn’t my trick.”

“It still counts.”

“It does not!”

“It does too!”

In a fit of frustration, and inan effort to best his sparring partner, Loki threw a glamour over Sigyn,ridding her of her robes and dressing her in a glittering golden gown similarto those he had seen a few models in attendance wearing. The figure-hugginggown was quite alluring on her, as was the amount of exposed flesh, until onegot to her now glove-free hands which were misshapen with leathery scars. Sigyndropped her champagne glass with an anguished scream when she realised whatLoki had done, angry tears filling her eyes when she felt the room staring ather. She turned on her heel and summoned a portal with her sling ring,disappearing in a shower of sparks.

“What did you do?” Strange sighedirritably as he appeared at Loki’s side.

“I may have taken things a steptoo far,” Loki conceded.

“You don’t say.”

“Is there any way to follow her?”

With another put upon sigh,Strange summoned a portal for him.

“If my favourite student doesn’tcome back, neither should you,” Strange warned before shoving him through.

The portal closed and Loki foundhimself face first in the snow. He righted himself and in the grey light he wasable to follow Sigyn’s footprints towards a church and the cemetery behind it.He found her seated before a headstone once again dressed in her in grey andpurple robes. Her gloves were lying on the ground beside her and her misshapenhands sat in her lap. Loki approached cautiously and when she failed to attackhim he sat down next to her, joining Sigyn in staring silently at the headstoneof one Marta Magnusson.

“Most days I can forget aboutthem,” she said without preamble, turning her scarred hands this way and that. “But thensomeone will comment on my gloves and I remember it anew. If I don’t wear them I have to put up with looks of disgust or pity. I’m notsure which is worse.”

“…How did it happen?”

“When I was but a child my fatherthrew me into the fireplace during one of his drunken rages, pushed me down bythe heel of his boot, my little hands pushing back against the burning logs asflames licked my face. It felt like hours of agony but my mother assured me itwas only seconds, either way the damage was done. Recovery was almost aspainful, and whenever I cried about it my mother would wipe away my tears andsay, “Women are defined by what they can endure, little Sigyn, so it is in allthe great stories, and you are far too strong to give up now.”

She fell silent then, content toignore her companion in favour of losing herself to long buried memories. Itstretched on long enough to make Loki fidget, a dozen empty platitude dying onhis silver tongue.

“I’m not showing you mine,” hemuttered, just loud enough to draw Sigyn’s attention.

“Hmm?”

“I’m not showing you my scars soyou’ll think us even,” he bit out petulantly. “Just know that I have them. Also,”he added with a belligerent sigh, “I’m sorry for bringing yours to light the wayI did. It was cruel.”

She accepted his apology with abrief nod but made no move to bury her past once more and leave the frozen cemetery. Loki sighed again, cursing his newfound sentimentality, and outstretcheda hand towards the headstone. Within minutes an ice sculpture formed behind itin the shape of a mother embracing her child. The child may have resembled Sigynbut, Loki realised too late, the mother was most definitely Frigga.

Sigyn’s eyes lit up inappreciation but as she turned to Loki her smiled faded. Loki followed her gazeto his outstretched hand, now azure blue. Chastened, he gave it frustratedshake as though his true heritage was something he could easily rid himself of.He crossed his arms to hide it from view until it returned to his prefershade and avoided meeting her eyes.

“Can you only manipulate ice?”she asked, surprising Loki.

“What?”

“Is it only ice you can create?”she repeated, smiling as her eyes drifted skyward to the flurries of snowflakesthat drifted past on the wind.

Loki, sensing mischief, smiledback. “What did you have in mind?”

The karaoke portion of Stark’s Christmasparty was due to begin, but as the host took the stage a blizzard developed outof thin air, pouring in from the balcony and blanketing the room with snow.Panicked and freezing guests sought to escape it but where met with icy gales thatpushed them back from the elevators and stairwells.

It disappeared as quickly as it came but left the entire floor covered in two feet of snow. Stark was thefirst to regain his senses, but before he could call for Loki’s head his ownwas struck with an icy projectile. He turned on the spot to find the SorcererSupreme smirking back at him, his cocky cloak dusting snow off whatever its equivalentto hands were.

“Oh, it’s on now, Strange.”

Loki hoisted himself up onto thebar and helped himself to an abandoned glass of champagne, laughing at thechaos before him as dozens of enhanced individuals engaged in an all-outsnowball war. Sigyn joined him moments later after quickly forming a portal withher sling ring to divert a wayward snowball down the back of Wong’s robes.

Loki beamed at his partner inmischief and pushed a drink into her gloved hand. “To what doesn’t kill us,” hetoasted.

Sigyn laughed and clinked herglass against his. “May it always make us a riot at parties.”

#i wish you would write a fic where...#loki #sigyn #logyn #pranks #post-ragnarok #no thanos #dr strange #tony stark #not that i can actually remember writing any of this #but i'm pretty sure sigyn was inspired in part by riley blue and lagertha

I was wondering 👉🏼👈🏼 If you have any good namgi a/o/b fics with either omega nams/ alpha yoonz or alpha nams/omega yoonz ? Mpreg if possible ? Sucker for that Namgi ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜🖤

Hey honey, I’m sorry if it took really long to answer :(

Aaand. I’m sorry, but I really can’t find other abo fics, it seems like we already recommended all of the good ones. We even answered to many similar asks, so i think you should simply look for them in the search bar if you haven’t read them all

You are not the pictures you take and you’re definitely not the pictures you post online. In today’s society we lose ourselves in the web, picking and choosing what to show others and picking and choosing what not to. We spend so much of our time picking ourselves apart and editing our pimples away. The more we use technology to alter our image, the more we objectify ourselves. Welcome to online dating where authenticity is lost.

Online dating emerged with the rise of technology, but dating apps emerged with its upgrade.

Why do I believe that dating apps, in particular, enable people to lose their authenticity? Well, for a couple of reasons. First, because we only show the best parts of ourselves and sometimes we put up an image of us that doesn’t really represent who we are. We might be using editing softwares to “improve” our image. We might be significantly changing our body size or even our facial features for the desire to fit in and be liked, but who cares... NO ONE WILL KNOW.

For the sake of this post, lets take Tinder as our focus. Tinder is all about appearance and physical attraction. People determine who you are based on the picture that you CHOSE and SELECTED. They don’t know you and you don’t know them, but you both make assumptions about each other. On there, you either swipe left or right according to the reaction cased by the picture. Pretty? Swipe right. Ugly? Swipe left. It’s so easy to express what you think about someone behind a screen. I’m pretty sure that you would not express your true feelings if that person, whom you found unattractive, came up to you in physical form. The moment you become a Tinder member and you CHOOSE pictures to represent yourself, you are losing your true self in the process.

Another reason why i think authenticity is lost when joining dating sites or apps is because you would do or say things behind a screen that you would never dare to do or say in real life. You are hiding behind a screen not even knowing if someone is catfishing you. You might lie, you might post pictures of someone else, you can pretend to be who you would want to be and not representing who you really are for fear of rejection. You might be really shy in real life and are unable to approach guys, but then on Tinder you are wild. That person gets to know someone who doesn’t really exist. The moment you decide to join these sites and apps, you are also deciding what to show people and you are definitely not showing your vulnerable, authentic self.

Is there anything authentic about dating sites and apps? I don’t think so, because you are just creating your personalised and idealised version of yourself... not your real one.

xoxo

Marta
