#Iftari

[comradekatara]

saw ur post on lok n the bender v nonbender oppression dynamics (or lack of ig) n if u dont mind me talking in ur inbox for a min but like. i think if lok wanted to explore the concept of oppressor/oppressed in a "post"-revolution world, i think it couldve been done if the shows main premise circulated around 'following politics as a principle v as a reactionary identity'. now this would require the writers being ppl who understand the nuances of oppression n history of oppressed ppl also sometimes taking up spaces as oppressors etc. but like. it couldve been interesting. oppressed ppl coming out of really fucked up oppressive regimes n how they reacted bc emotionally ur all over the place n u have a lot of emotions bc *ofc* u do. like the concept of southern water tribe benders "coming back" to the tribe n being so relieved there is any semblance left of the tribe, of their ppl, the culture that was actively eroded thru genocide but also maybe exploring anger bc like yeah thats their ppl, yeah they experienced so much oppression *obviously* but also as nonbenders they werent literally *locked and caged* n that can bring up complicated feelings (IF they really really wanted to go a nonbender v bender route. i dont necessarily think that shouldve ever been the route but like if the worldbuilding wanted it to be in that direction idk. it couldve explored legitamtely intersting dynamics that happen on a smaller --> larger level. but also that anger being directed to benders in the nwt for "not doijng enough" for them as their kin across the globe - an interesting positiona that was sorta touched on in s2 but like....not really. idk i just feel like..i wouldve really liked to see water tribe coming out of the war n at first feeling the relief of like 'its over' but then theres just...anger. like. a fuck ton of anger. n its obviously directed at fire nation but also the fire nation is ALLLL the way over *there* and currently the ppl who ended the war are trying Really Hard To Keep Peace and there is an Attempt at rebuilding the culture(s) but also...theres so much anger n i can see it also being redirected back at their ppl which i dont think is unrealistic..

or maybe exploring fire nation specifically. in a way to avoid/minimize accountability fire nation nonbenders couldve been like '100 year war is UR fault benders!11!! we were ~innocent~ n dragged along! to which the benders wouldve OBVIOUSLY reacted terribly too. but that is a convo i could realistically see happening in a fascist society that has been "defeated" n THAT is more interesting to me to see esp bc that would require a complete dismanteling of the monarchy but would obviously bring up other issues of 'we're losing our ~culture~' (an argument we literally see alllll the time w fascist countries) n thus a rise in conservatism in which fire nation ppl could stoke the tension in like. earth kingdom (since fire nation are still settlers in earth kingdoms) by pitting earth kingdom benders against nonbenders ('umm if our monarchy is getting taken down so is urs so whats UR culture earth ppl? umm why was the dai li (benders) basically puppeterring the king (nonbender)....r nonbenders weak....') n that sort of fascist rhetoric spreading thru the globe. even that sort of world building makes more sense to me then what they attempted in s1 where nonbenders n benders were just...hating....for no legit reason? idk.

and it could just be taken further w s4 - kuvira whos all 'earth kingdom has been suffering so we need to make sure that never happens again' which like ok...foundations are kinda there but then veers off bc her politc fails n ends up embodying fascists - which is arguably a great representation of liberalism aka what happens when u dont have principles as a politic but rather surface level understanding. like lok frustrates me bc there are lots of interesting political dynamics i feel couldve been explored just like...more. how liberalism normalizes the road back to fascism. how when the dominiant culture is fascism it can take root globally n that it takes like...a lot of work to dig to it n that requires being principles not just following somebody who seemingly represents an identity without meaning. for korra to actually go on a journey n couldve been an exploration of her radicalization being in line w her spirituality n positioning in both the physical world n also the universe. couldve been a show that really threw digs at obama. but also for that the show n the writers would need to understand what identity politics is as a politic n read the combahee river collective statement which like...ik they wouldnt do so..

yeah I mean you say a LOT here but the through line I am really getting from this is that lok needed to be grounded in genuine material analysis of the geopolitical conditions wrt how these various colonial dynamics and social discourses would have evolved in a postwar society, and instead of actually critiquing those social positions (namely liberalism) they instead perpetuate it because they are simply unserious and shallow. yeah.

Meanwhile in Brindleton Bay, Rory Oaklow spends time with her family. In the 11 years* she spent with her neglectful bio parents in her childhood, her hometown of Brindleton Bay had seemed like a crappy place, and now its the opposite in her adult years with the life she’s built. Still, Rory’s been going to therapy to work through things from her childhood, and tries to be a good mom to her and Mia’s kids, and a good wife to Mia.

Rory now kisses Mia’s cheek, pulling her close. “You look so gorgeous, Mia.” She says, and Mia blushes. “Thanks baby you too.” She says, squeezing Rory’s waist. After that, Rory checks in with her kids. She’s so proud of all of them, and can’t believe it started with her adopting Morgan as her own son when she and Mia got engaged, and then she and Mia had their daughter Kristina, and their youngest son Owen. Now Morgan’s 18 and attending Britechester from home, Kristina is in the fourth grade and getting better everyday with her werewolf skills, and Owen is two years old and learning fast.

SKZ Reaction to S/O Celebrating Ramadan

Genre: Fluff

Warnings: fem!reader in some parts, muslim!reader, mentions of food, if i missed anything let me know!

Author’s Note 1: Yes I am well aware Muslims aren’t supposed to date, and I’m also well aware that Muslim people who do date refrain from it during the month of Ramadan. However this is a reaction, an imagine, and that’s exactly what it is– imagining! So don’t come for me for this, thankssss

Author’s Note 2: I haven’t posted in over a year so idk how this is gonna do, but it’s Ramadan so I did want to post these for the Muslim STAY! Ramadan Kareem to those celebrating❤️☪️

Author’s Note 3: Do you guys wants an ‘SKZ Celebrating Eid’ towards the end of the month? If so, let me know!

Bang Chan:

Chan is literally the most respectful person in the world and also the most helpful

For your first Ramadan as a couple, he’d do SO much research to know what he should and should not do

He’d also ask you only like 10,000 questions (that’s not a lot right)

Chan would definitely make sure he keeps his distance (physically) during the month, even though you didn’t mention anything about it. He’s a very touchy and cuddly person but he respects your religion so he’ll refrain during the month

He’s also sit with you while you eat suhoor/sehri (or whatever y’all call it)! Sometimes he’ll make it for you and makes sure you eat enough to last you the whole day

He also eats Iftar with you :’)

I’m convinced the man will go to the mosque with you too

Chan fasts with you sometimes too! Although he knows that fasting is not the only aspect of Ramadan, so he takes care of other things as well

For example, if he’s listening to/making music while you’re around, he ALWAYS has his headphones plugged in

He also tells the boys to respect your personal space during the month (since most of them are huggers) and asks them to try their best not to curse or make dirty jokes around you (Chan also refrains from it too)

He’ll often surprise you throughout the month with iftari staples he can find from halal restaurants

Depending on what Muslim country you’re from, Chan googles some popular iftar foods from there and attempts to make it!

Overall Chan is very respectful and eager to learn, and also really really supportive so he’ll do whatever he can to make sure the month of Ramadan is easy for you.

“Babe, I love you but stay 6 ft away! You’re too pretty and I wanna kiss you but you’re celebrating Ramadan!”

LeeKnow:

Your personal chef for Ramadan

I mean, your personal chef 24/7 for eternity, but especially for Ramadan

He will make whatever you ask him to make, and like Chan, will make you Suhoor/Iftari staple foods from your country

Minho also sets an alarm an hour before Fajr, just so you don’t have to be up and eating alone

LeeKnow also does his research, so refrains from stuff like cursing/listening to music out loud, bringing alcohol around you, etc

LeeKnow’s also really curious, so he’ll be asking you tons of genuine questions

He also yells at the boys if they hug you during Ramadan or curse in front of you

Doesn’t plan any outings with the boys during prayer times; he knows you would never wanna miss a prayer

He does a lot of taking care of you from behind the scene, stuff you don’t notice at first but when you do, you MELT

For example, he carries a travel-friendly prayer mat along with a scarf for you in his bag.

And if you’re not wearing long sleeves he gives you his hoodie to wear so you can be properly dressed to pray

Guards the room you’re praying in so none of the boys can come in and bother you

Overall, a perfect boyfriend who respects your interfaith relationship a lot

“So you make up the fasts you can’t do during your period?? Wow~”

Changbin:

Please he’s trying so hard to be respectful and not bother you as much during the month

I don’t think Changbin would fast with you especially since he works out so much he needs to eat and drink well

But he’s definitely eating suhoor and iftari with you every day of Ramadan (unless he has a schedule ofc)

Asks you so many questions omg

I think Changbin would go to Jisung and Chan to brush up on his knowledge for Ramadan

He understands fasting is not the only part of Ramadan, so everything else he refrains from too

For example, drinking, cursing, pork, and although he loves physical connection with you, he’s gonna refrain from it completely (even though it’s really hard for him)

But he does apologize to you once because he cannot stay away from music (it’s so cute)

Even when you’re not fasting during your period, Changbin refrains from all those things! 

Not only is he willing to try Iftari staples from your country, but he will order foods from other Muslim countries for you guys too!

Changbin really bonds with you during Ramadan since he’s getting to try so many foods he never has before

“Huh? No I’m not tired. See, I’m perfectly fine! I can sleep after you’re done praying, not a big deal.”

Hyunjin:

Fight me on this one; Hyunjin will decorate for Ramadan all for you

He’s gonna mainly decorate his bedroom since you’re in there the most, but he’ll put up string lights in the dining room 

He’s also gonna paint a ‘Ramadan Kareem’ sign with a beautiful mosque in the background 🥺

Also pls Hyunjin is so enamored by you

The boy loves to sleep in but he’s so in love with you he will willingly get up when you get up for suhoor and won’t go back to sleep until you’re done with Fajr (even though you told him he doesn’t need to)

Your personal photographer all year round, we agree right?

But this guy LOVES taking candid photos of you during Ramadan the most! 

He believes you look beautiful no matter what time of day and no matter what’s going on, and to prove it

He takes so many pictures of you while you’re eating suhoor/iftar, while you’re getting ready to pray, while you’re focused on reading/listening to the Quran, while you’re making Iftari food (oh just wait till Eid he’s literally tailing you all day w his camera)

Also wants you to teach him the first week of Ramadan how to make the Iftari foods you love

So the rest of the month, he starts making those for you

[Hyunjin]: “Yeah I’ve been waking up at 5am with her everyday, and I hate it.”

[Member]: “So why don’t you just not wake up?”

[Offended Hyunjin]: “HOW COULD YOU EVEN SUGGEST THAT?!”

Han Jisung:

Tbh I think Jisung is the most familiar with Ramadan because he lived in Malaysia for a while, and the majority of Malaysians are Muslim

Even though he’s got the most knowledge about Ramadan out of the group, he’s still nervous he’ll somehow mess up so he does a LOT of research and even takes notes

His studio times during the month have become 10pm - 5am, just so he can make sure he’s home with you during Iftar AND Suhoor

Jisung is probably the only member who will keep most (if not all) fasts with you

He also strikes me as someone who will willingly go to the mosque

Also he’s gonna pick up a Korean translation of the Quran so he can read beside you while you’re reading

After reading he’ll discuss with you what he learned, and you’ll sit there for a while on the prayer mats discussing Islamic stories (literally me dream shut up)

Jisung’s strongest suite is not cooking so he will help you make suhoor and iftari instead

Jisung bursts out singing randomly ALL the frickin time but he definitely keeps himself in check during Ramadan which is something you appreciate so much

Part of him wants to stay in the dorm during the whole month so he doesn’t jump your bones and cuddle you kiss you to his heart’s content

The other part of him doesn’t wanna leave you alone during the month and wants to observe it with you

He ends up staying with you, just controlling himself :)

“Baby, is it time for Iftar yet? 5 more minutes? Okay then...”

Felix:

I know I keep saying they all do their research BUT IT’S TRUE

AND FELIX IS ONE OF THEM

He keeps telling you facts he learned, and you know them, but he’s so cute, so you just act like you’ve never heard them

The only thing on his mind the entire month is, “Make life easier for Y/N”

So like Minho, he will make sure he has a prayer mat, scarf, and one of his sweatshirts in his bag at all times so you can pray when you need to

He also makes sure to take care of your sehri and iftari every single day, even if he has to wake up at 4am to make it

Will keep some of the fasts with you

Also suggests taking night trips to the mosque with you, since he read that the Taraweeh prayer is a big deal and usually done at the mosque

Might I add he will even perform the prayer! He won’t know what he’s saying but he’ll stand by the men and follow them and it’s the effort that counts okay

He might even chat up some of the men at the prayer and talk about his will to learn the religion for you

I’m 100% sure Felix will pickup an English translation of the Quran so he can sit next to you while you read. 

If you’re on page 30, he’s on page 30. And he’s really trying to understand it!

Overall just so freaking supportive, and he wants you to know you’re not alone in celebrating such a holy month for you

“So today in the car, I was listening to one of the Islamic scholars you showed me, and I learned that....”

Seungmin:

Did I portray each member to be very respectful? Yes

Will I do the same for the remaining members ESPECIALLY Seungmin? Also yes

Definition of sweet

Like all the gestures he does during Ramadan really make you fall in love all over again

Because he’s doing, like, jaw dropping things you didn’t think he would!

For example, he searches all day for a good online abaya store a couple weeks before Ramadan. So right before Ramadan starts, you get a huge package filled with different colored abayas and some scarves!

If he sees you’re really stressed with work/school on a particular day, he’ll asl you if you remembered to pray, and you think it’s so sweet because prayer is such an important thing in Islam

Does his research especially on the foods eaten during suhoor and iftari!

So like Felix he will prepare your Iftari for you every single night

Also gets up to be there as moral support while you eat sehri and pray Fajr

You CANNOT get Seungmin to wake up at 5am for a month straight without any good reason

But you’re Y/N. You are the BEST reason for him to do ANYTHING

You two will sit there during suhoor and he will ask you questions about the religion, whatever he’s curious about

Does everything in his willpower to make the month easy for you

“It’s 5 in the morning let me sleep crazy woman... I’m kidding, I’m getting up.”

I.N: 

Jeongin understands how hard it is being around so many non-Muslims, especially because Korea doesn’t have a large population of Muslims

And he’s so empathetic, so he will feel that his main job during Ramadan is to make sure you’re not feeling alone

It’s hard for him, but he keeps most of the fasts with you

He would’ve kept all 30 but you made him promise he wouldn’t fast on days he has full day schedules since he needs to stay hydrated

Jeongin will also go to the mosque with you

He’s also one of the members who will pick up a Korean translation of the Quran and sit by you while you read it

Usually doesn’t cook often but during Ramadan he’s cooking every single night with you

LOVES trying the food from your country; although it’s stuff he’s not used to, he enjoys trying the foods and is so interested in all the different spices used

Jeongin also refrains from things during the month of Ramadan– he gives up drinking, pork, cursing, and listening to music outside of his work

I think Jeongin would even go as far as to not eat haram meat the whole month! So everything you guys are eating is 100% halal

And you think it is such a heartwarming gesture since Ramadan is not a part of Jeongin’s culture

Basically everything he can to make sure you don’t feel lonely during Ramadan, you bet he’s on it

“Baby the food is so good! But the spices are tickling my nose– I’M GONNA SNEEZE–”
