"[Elizabeth Woodville's] piety as queen seems to have been broadly conventional for a fifteenth-century royal, encompassing pilgrimages, membership of various fraternities, a particular devotion to her name saint, notable generosity to the Carthusians, and the foundation of a chantry at Westminster after her son was born there. ['On other occasions she supported planned religious foundations in London, […] made generous gifts to Eton College, and petitioned the pope to extend the circumstances in which indulgences could be acquired by observing the feast of the Visitation']. One possible indicator of a more personal, and more sophisticated, thread in her piety is a book of Hours of the Guardian Angel which Sutton and Visser-Fuchs have argued was commissioned for her, very possibly at her request."
-J.L. Laynesmith, "Elizabeth Woodville: The Knight's Widow", "Later Plantagenet and Wars of the Roses Consorts: Power, Influence, Dynasty"

I feel like being a Janitor at BHHS would be the equivalent to FNAF security guard.
Like there is a monster in Beacon Hills every other week, and it always makes it way to the school.
Like if it was a game, your job would be to avoid the Pack fighting the monster and hiding so the monster don't kill you. And then during the day your job would be to fix all the broken lockers, classroom doors, fix the walls, put in new windows.
Like the janitors would have to be paid more than the teachers for all the work they have to do.

I need friends who are also batshit insane about sterek and always want to rant about them for hours, I only got normal friends that don’t need to hyperfixate on a couple of fictional characters to go through their day

I just watched Life with Luca, and I have to say, it was a real shippers dream. It was basically Derek and Casey raising their kids together (albeit in one weekend) and it was everything my little fanfiction loving heart wanted.
No it's not going to win any awards or break records but it was a good movie overall and it made former 16 year old me very happy to see everyone again so I'll take it.
Sometimes you just need the fan service.

The fact that Derek Hale could be mistaken for a death omen is clever as hell but I wish they'd just let him have a win JUST ONCE. Come on, you're telling me that homie can turn into a hulking black canine with eerie glowing eyes and and that he ALSO has an absolutely devastating family history and horrible rap sheet with lovers. Someone out there is gonna see him and be like "Oh. Fuck I'm gonna die" AND THEYRE PROBABLY RIGHT.

ballet au lol 🩰
YES THANK YOU ANON WOW
Derek is a dancer coming back from rehabbing a horrible injury (lower back?? fucked up his knee??) and has a chip on his shoulder because a) he totally has stage fright! b) has a reputation for being surly and overly intense. Pre-injury he was a rising star in the ballet company and had a lot more confidence but now he is a man humbled, quiet, relieved not to be in charge, but he also feels like he has a ton to prove! Especially since his mom and his older sister are famous dancers.
The ballet troupe is smallish and Stiles is in charge of logistics and MARKETING! Because he is a noted uncoordinated klutz. He's all about strategy and reviewing data and making things happen, and he is the absolutely bane of Derek's existence. He wants Derek in photoshoots, he sometimes coordinates with the artistic director (Lydia) on people's roles, Derek finds the way he talks about engaging customers manipulative, and tbh Stiles can be abrasive and annoying! So smart but so mean!
Derek has a recognizable everything face so once he has returned Stiles wants him to do an ad photoshoot so they can slap his picture on the side of a bus and this just makes Derek feels even more pressure. Resents Stiles for this and also because it's compromising Derek's anonymity. His only respite is teaching children's ballet classes, which is something he started doing while rehabbing his injury and also because the pay to be a ballet dancer isn't great at this small troupe!
Derek thinks once his career is over he would like to teach
But sometimes, when Derek is teaching these first graders, who do not care if he is weird and quiet, he notices Stiles watching. He thinks at first Stiles is going to want to use this for marketing but Stiles never says anything about it, just stays to watch Derek and the kids.
Then at some sort of holiday dance event Derek runs into his horrible ex, Kate Argent, who is a principal at a much larger and more prestigious company, and panics...only for Stiles to appear, wrap an arm around Derek like they're dating, and say "hey babe, who's this?"

Learning random ass Teen Wolf opinions from every corner of the internet as a result of the movie baffling and enraging what appears to be every person who watches it has inspired me to do something I've idly considered for a while - watch a couple of episodes to just to get a sense of what this show even was
Anyway Derek Hale's shack-freak vibes have fascinated and bewitched me 🤣🤣🤣
I mean in these first few eps the writing is so obviously setting up the whole dark mysterious werewolf badass and "Ooooh, can he be trusted? 👀👀👀" But with the most basic foreknowledge that he's one of the frequently shirtless wolf boys from the gifs and not a season villain (so I assume he's genuinely trying to help?) then all his threatening silences and stalker behavior and refusal to answer questions is, like, not malicious? He's being suspicious as fuck to this degree by accident?
And while I am admittedly getting the sense that a lot of these characters are dumbasses, for Derek in particular he's just kinda failing to act remotely like a normal person. As if he's literally just been living in a shack in the middle of the woods somewhere since his traumatic backstory happened, and now upgraded to the burned ruin of his trauma house. Which I'm sure with context will be very heartbreaking and tragic, but without context is honestly lowkey hilarious.
Go my freaky wolfman and make too much eye contact and stand too close and show signs of long term social isolation! Completely fail to communicate information even when you have fantastic openings to do so! Constantly just lurk around this high school showing up in places you most definitely should not be and scare the shit out of teenagers! Climb in people's windows! Be way too intense! He's so fucking weird and just passing it off as intimidating via the combined powers of height and cheekbones, and I find it highly entertaining.
