Do you know that soldier, king, poet thing that's been somewhat popular these days? If so i hope you wouldn't be opposed to sorting the volturi in those groups. I'd love to read your opinion on it, love you🖤

• — 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐕𝐨𝐥𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐢 & 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐒𝐨𝐥𝐝𝐢𝐞𝐫, 𝐏𝐨𝐞𝐭 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐊𝐢𝐧𝐠

I believe there is a case to be made when I say all of them could be placed under the 𝐊𝐈𝐍𝐆 banner based on the mission they have decided to take on. However, I do believe that is a bit of a lame answer to give so I have broken it down to a more personal level. First I would like to present the core of this quiz, as explained by the creator themselves;

"The core value the quiz is about is duty and how each archetype relates to it. The King accepts it reluctantly, the Poet rejects it, and the Soldier resents it."

If you are curious about the Soldier, Poet or King, based on this quiz I would recommend visiting @atlanticsea 's blog. Congratulations dearie, your quiz has officially made it to Volturi Tumblr

Also, I do believe some of my answers may go against some other opinions I have seen the last couple of days; if you are curious about my reasoning do drop off an inquiry in my inbox.

Ok I’m Taylor Swift’s new album TTDP

THE BLACK DOG OK

I WAS JUST THINKING YOU KNOW. WHEN MALEC HAD THAT ONE BREAKUP PHASE, I know smart phones weren’t that advanced yet, BUT WHAT IF, WHAT IF MAGNUS FORGOT TO TURN HIS LOCATION OFF AND ALEC COULD STILL SEEEEE ITTTTTTR

The LYRICSASAAAASSASS

“I am someone who, until recent events

You shared your secrets with

And your location, You forgot to turn it off

And so I watch as you walk into some bar called The Black Dog HUNTER’S MOON

And pierce new holes in my heart”

UM. HELLO. THAT IS PROBABLY HOW ALEC FELT IF HE COULD SEE MAGNUS’ LOCATION

LIKE

“And it kills me

I just don't understand

how you don't miss me

in the shower and remember

How my rain-soaked body was shaking

Do you hate me?”

THIS IS SO MALEC CODED I DONT EVEN KNOW WHAT TO SAY

“When someone plays the starting line and you jump up, But she's too young to know this song”

Cue Magnus, who has lived lifetimes, I bet a penny he has songs stuck in his head that only lovers from ages before could reminisce with him. Wasn’t there one he loved dearly in the fifties called Eda who was a dancer and singer at a club?

“That was intertwined in the tragic fabric of our dreaming”

I’m sorry the start of City of Heavenly Fire and between that and City of Fallen Angels was very tragic fabric of them. IM CRYING

“I move through the world with the heartbroken

My longings stay unspoken

And I may never open up the way I did for you”

That’s Magnus for ya.

He loved Alec so dearly. And the way alec hurt him it would be hard for him to open up to someone else again. That and also because Alec was so special to him.

Lastly,

“Old habits die screaming”

This line is just too iconic to miss. And isn’t that true. I feel like it would’ve broken a large part of both Magnus and Alex had they broken up like that and hell yeah there would be a lot of screaming insides.

Anyways I have more screaming analyses coming up. Next one is loml

[addieredgrave]

I used to love the warmth that it gave like honey trickling down my throat. Now all I feel is the burn within, scorching my insides with all of its vengeance. Every day I tell myself that it's the last, but now all I wish is for a different end. The guilt eats me alive, I'm haunted by the lives so diligently told before me. I'm told of the curse that the evil liquid brings. It took one mother too soon, and others, I'm sure. And yet. And yet as the clock strikes five, it calls. Beacons me forward, I can't resist, like the pull of the tide. No matter how hard I try. I'm always pulled within. I'm left drowning. Each gasp of air was an excuse unvalidated.

❝—It's nothing overly fancy, but I figured you would wear one and I the other.❞ He speaks as he offers Richard the velveteen box that contains the band which he had picked out for his birthday, with its engraved silver ringed in gold. Its matching pair gleams upon his own finger. ❝—That way, we'll always have something to remind us of one another.❞

Richards Birthday Asks: ACCEPTING

II @vxctorx

Lips part in a reticent awe as the now opened, velveteen box rests against the palm of his hand, revealing the elegant treasures inside. "Vic..." Richard's delicate words muffle against the thick lump growing in the hollow of his throat as a lone tear slid past the round of his freckled cheek. "This-... This is the most beautiful thing I've e'er seen," he beamed, those brilliant and boyish hues lighting up now at the sight of his love with a luminous smile to match, as Richard quickly wiped the rogue tear with his jumper's sleeve. A part of him thought that such a boon was too beautiful to rest on the valley of his labour-worn fingertips, but there was no way he was to deny such a self-less gift, amidst such insecurities.

In one eager swoop, Richard slid his present against the curl of his right, ring finger. A great improvement, he thought to himself, as /he couldn't help but admire how the band's embellishments of silver and gold rested upon his undeserving finger. "There. Now we'll ne'er be par'ed," he lovingly cooed, his now embellished hand taking that of Vic's, before Richard drew his body near, closing their gap with a kiss. "I love it so much," he smiled against his love's soft lips, the tip of his nose brushing up against Vic's own noble bridge. "In fact, I think it's safe to say this is my favourite birthday e'er... I love ye', Vic. Most ardently....Seriously, how did somebody like me get so lucky."

LGBT literature of the 1860s–1910s. Part 5

After a long pause, the list is back! Here we have a couple of plays, accounts by two trans women, lesbian poetry, and more.

1. Despised and Rejected, by A.T. Fitzroy (Rose Allatini; 1918). A pacifist novel published during World War One? With gay and lesbian characters? Yes, that was sure to get people in trouble. Its publisher was fined and the judge called it “morally unhealthy and most pernicious”. So, Dennis is a young composer who hates violence and therefore refuses to go to war. He also suffers because he is a “musical man”, that is, gay, and loves Alan, art-loving son of a wealthy businessman. His friend Antoinette, meanwhile, is “strangely attracted” to a woman. Nevertheless, the two attempt to love each other. When the war begins, Alan appears in Dennis’ life again, and they try to avoid being sent to the front together. Alan also persuades Dennis to accept who he is. Edward Carpenter himself defended the novel, saying that “the book is also a plea for toleration of a very much misunderstood section of humanity”. Read online

2. Autobiography of an Androgyne, by Ralph Werther (1918). Ralph Werther, also known as Jennie June, wrote this autobiography for doctors, and it is very revealing. Being a New York fairy (male prostitute) and possibly a trans woman, they tell frankly about the city’s gay underworld of the early 20th century and their personal experience, which is sometimes too frank and dark perhaps, but all the more interesting. Read online 

3. Poems by Mikhail Kuzmin. Kuzmin was not just the author of Russia’s first gay novel, but also a poet. Many of his works were dedicated to or mentioned his lovers. I’d recommend Where Will I Find Words (in English and Russian), Night Was Done (both in English and Russian), from the 1906-1907 collection Love of This Summer (available fully in Russian), mostly based on his love affair with Pavel Maslov in 1906. And also If They Say (in English and Russian), which is a great statement.

4. The Loom of Youth, by Alec Waugh (1917). A semi-biographical novel based on Evelyn Waugh’s older brother’s experience at Sherborne School in Dorset. It is a story of Gordon Caruthers’ school years, from the age of 13 to 19, and it is full of different stories typical for public schools, be it pranks and cheating exams or dorm life and sports. Although the homosexual subject was quite understated, the author implied that it was a tradition and open secret in public schools. The book became popular and soon caused a great scandal. Worth noting that before that Alec was expelled for flirting with a boy.  Read online 

5. Two Speak Together, by Amy Lowell (1919). Lowell was a famous American poet and lesbian. Many of her poems were dedicated to her lover, actress Ada Dwyer Russell, specifically the section Two Speak Together from Pictures of the Floating World. These poems are infused with flower imagery, which wasn’t uncommon for lesbian poetry of the time. Read online

6. De berg van licht/The Mountain of Light, by Louis Couperus (1905-1906). Couperus is called the Dutch Oscar Wilde for a reason: this is one of the first decadent novels in Dutch literature. It is also a historical one, telling about a young androgynous Syrian priest Heliogabalus who then becomes a Roman Emperor. Homoerotism, hedonism, aestheticism: Couperus creates a very vivid world of Ancient Rome. He also covered the topic of androgyny in his novel Noodlot, which was mentioned in Part 3 of this list. Read online in Dutch 

7. Frühlings Erwachen/Spring Awakening/The Awakening of Spring, by Frank Wedekind (1891, first performed in 1906). This play criticized the sexually oppressive culture prevalent in Europe at the time through a collection of monologues and short scenes about several troubled teens. Each one of them struggles with their puberty, which often leads to a tragic end. Like in The Loom of Youth, homosexuality is not the central focus of the play, but one character, Hänschen, is homosexual and explores his sexuality through Shakespear and paintings. The play was later turned into a famous musical. Read online in German or in English

8. Twixt Earth and Stars, by Radclyffe Hall (1906). Though it wasn’t known to many at the time, these poems were dedicated to women, some to Hall’s actual lovers. Read online

9. The Secret Confessions of a Parisian: The Countess, 1850-1871, by Arthur Berloget (published in 1895). This account is similar to the Autobiography of an Androgyne, albeit shorter. The author nowadays is thought to be a trans woman. They describe their love for women’s dresses, the euphoria from wearing dresses, makeup and wigs, the life as a “female impersonator” in Parisian cafe-concerts, and their love affair with a fellow prisoner. The autobiography is not available online, but you can read it in Queer Lives: Men’s Autobiographies from Nineteenth-Century France by William Peniston and Nancy Erber.

10. At Saint Judas’s, by Henry Blake Fuller (1896). This is possibly the first American play about homosexuality. It is very short. An excited groom is waiting for his wedding ceremony in the company of his gloomy best man. They are former lovers, and this short scene is not going to end well… Read online
