Growing up with Taylor Swift by your side: easily one of the best decisions ever. Here are some wise words from Doctor Swift, in honor of the three-year anniversary of her honorary degree. 💜

I found these from an inktober prompt and I can’t believe I didn’t post them

Concept: Marinette and Adrien match on a dating app and both have chat noir profiles and neither believes the other is chat noir and they both jokingly try to prove they’re actually the real chat noir

And meanwhile they… fall in love…..

chatgpt is the coward's way out. if you have a paper due in 40 minutes you should be chugging six energy drinks, blasting frantic circus music so loud you shatter an eardrum, and typing the most dogshit essay mankind has ever seen with your own carpel tunnel laden hands

my bf has many interesting stories and observations from his new job as a 911 operator

my favorite is how meandering people are, even in the midst of a terrible emergency

they respond to “what is the emergency” with “well, the thing is, four weeks ago–”

and then he’s like “WHAT IS THE EMERGENCY RIGHT NOW”

and they’re like “so what happened this morning was, i said to my wife, i said–”

“WHAT IS CURRENTLY HAPPENING AT THIS MOMENT”

“oh i’m having a heart attack”

my second favorite is how specific he has to get sometimes

like, “what is your emergency?”

“i’m sitting in a pool of blood.”

“… is it… your blood?”

“yes i think so”

“do you know where it’s coming from?”

“probably the stab wound”

“have you been stabbed?”

“oh yah definitely”

I started writing stuff in the tags about how I feel like she would've, and it kind of got away from me... Special thanks to @deinde-prandium for beta-ing!

Nightmares

I wake up before dawn with a gasp, a tightness in my chest, and the feeling that my nightmares aren’t so out of reach. I know instantly there’s no going back to sleep.

I get up and pace my room, clawing at my nightgown as if it’s going to free me. There’s no going into the woods today, not with the live fence and the Peacekeepers’ eyes on me. I suffocate at the thought. I open my bedroom window, gobbling up the fresh air, but it’s not enough. 

I stumble out of my room and down the stairs, grabbing my father’s hunting jacket on my way out of the door. There’s a bench outside the house. I fall on it, holding my head in my hands as I try not to think of the worst case scenario.

“What’s the matter, sweetheart?”

I’m hyperventilating so much I don’t hear Haymitch until he plops down next to me. His heavy stagger suggests he’s still drunk – maybe already , although it might be too early even for him. But Snow’s announcing our fate for the Quarter Quell soon, and it’ll be bad, I can feel it. 

“What if it’s Prim?” 

The words tumble out hoarsely. My throat is too tight, like everything else. I can tell Haymitch doesn’t need more to understand, although he doesn't answer straight away.

“They can’t reap her,” he states simply.

“Of course they can!” I turn towards him. “They did it once!”

I can't block out my nightmare and how real it felt to watch Prim walk up the stairs to the stage. I don't even know if I could volunteer for her again. Knowing Snow, he'll make sure I can't.

“It would be a tragic and memorable story any other year. The Capitol would eat it up.” Haymitch is stiller than I’ve ever seen him. “But they’ve... incidentally reaped family members in the Quell before. And believe it or not, sweetheart, the stakes are too high now to try and hurt only you.”

He takes out his flask and unscrews it. He holds it out to me, but I just stare at him until he shrugs and takes a long swig. 

“The only way to have her in the arena and make it extraordinary for the Capitol is to reap from the victors’ families,” Haymitch says.

“I don’t see the problem.” I cross my arms, although part of me wonders why I’m taking the side of my night terror.

He takes another swig from the flask and stares emptily at the ground. “You’ll find that most victors don’t have reaping-aged family members – and some of us don’t have the luxury to worry about anyone in our family getting reaped.”

I think of his empty house, and wonder if it was ever fuller. I hold my hand out; it’s met with the cold flask metal. I regret my decision as soon as the bitter liquid touches my tongue, but it keeps my mind from wandering off to worse shores than my nightmares. 

We both sit in silence and watch the sun rise on another day.

why wasn’t Katniss scared of Prim potentially being reaped again in the 75th games, prior to the Quarter Quell announcement?

It would be very typical of the Capitol to rig the reaping and send her to the arena, forcing Katniss to be her mentor. That would’ve made for good television 🥲. The victor who risked everything to save her sister, now forced to usher her to her demise a year later, her sacrifice rendered meaningless. (ahaha😭)

I can see from Snow’s perspective, this would’ve added fuel to the fire of the rebellion and caused outrage (not that the 75th quell didn’t already).

But it’s interesting this possibility never crosses Katniss’ mind.

Things cats were right about all along:

Fuck staying hydrated by drinking enough water - eat! more! wet! food! (watermelon, cucumbers, SOUP!)

Feels great to be really high up in your house where you can see the whole place (loft bed loft bed loft bed loft bed!)

Express yourself as clearly as possible when people are touching you and you don't want them to.

Optional, but you can also express yourself clearly when your people are not touching you and you want them to.

Sometimes it's important to just go "hmm. actually, I don't care" and wander off.

You don't have to be the strongest or toughest to defend yourself, it's enough to just be difficult enough to not be worth the trouble.

Ghosts will eventually leave if you stare at them for long enough.

Papys Garous/Werepapas details

I find it very funny that Lady Graham de Vanilly has a Vivienne Westwood-inspired necklace, when the brand is famously tied to punk fashion; I had an inkling she was going to snap just from that detail, she's clearly more progressive than she lets on! (and maybe she's a swiftie zfhfkhj)

Also very fond of the Shrek 2 vibes of the Sunday lunch scene, down to the cracking of food bit and Lady GdV's bun which looks a lot like Fiona's mum's hairdo

It's interesting to note that the Graham de Vanilly's all basically have the same names (Emile-Millie-Emilie-Amélie), and kind of same for the Grassettes (Gabriel's/Gabi's mum is called Gabrielle... Which is for the bit, since his dad Johnny is clearly based on French rockstar Johnny Halliday, who wrote a song called Gabrielle)

I do like Gina describing Adrien as "pretty like a princess", it's nice to see the nod to earlier episodes where Marinette depicts herself as a knight rather than the damsel in distress; this episode takes it a step further though, as Adrien quite literally becomes a trophy-child...

I don't think I'm ready to talk about the trauma of Marinette having to break the rings to free her boyfriend WHILE KNOWING that she's probably killing him in the process (I'm still unsure of whether Adrien knows about the fact that he's a Sentibeing, it's kind of killing me)
