Last Forever

A/N: this will be very fluffy, so beware. And thank you to the wonderful Anon who requested this.

The two teens sat in bed, well for of in a spoon position, per se. The shorter of the two holding on to the taller one in a sign of affection.

“You know, this is kinda funny,” the Spindell boy said with a little chuckle, holding onto Mickey’s hand that was around his waist.

Mickey looked down to Arthur in a sort of bewildered state and said with amusement in his voice, “Oh really? And, how is that?” Spoon looked back up at the boy he loves.

“Well uh, my names Spoon, and you’re spooning me. A little turn of the tables, huh,” Spoon laughs while Mickey looks down at him with all the love in his eyes just smiling.

Mickey starts with a soft laugh and says, “Y’know, every time I think you can’t get any cuter; you just continue to prove me wrong.”

With that, the two boys who were smitten with each other, continued on with their banter, all while Shira saw the little interaction and smiled. She knew those boys would make it, just her and Hannah did after so long.

After like intense amounts of thinking and repeated small scale crisis I believe I perhaps might be genderfluid rather than nonbinary, I know the distinction doesn't matter to some people I mean it doesn't even matter THAT hard to me but it feels at the moment like the most accurate representation so

Yeah 👍

[cursed-40k-thoughts]

Do they even make non imperium books

Depends what you mean. Chaos? Quite a lot. Xenos? Not many, but moreso in recent years, once GW slowly started wrapping its head around the fact people actually liked xenos stuff.

You've got the Path of the Eldar and Rise of the Ynnari stuff by Gav Thorpe. These are uh, not great contentious amongst Eldar fans. You have the T'au stuff by Phil Kelly. Genuinely overall bad. The Path of the Dark Eldar books by Andy Chambers are good and fun. Necrons have Robert Rath's The Infinite and The Divine + War in the Museum focused around Trazyn and Orikan. They also have the Twice-Dead King duology, which is an exquisite look into the social and psychological aspects of the Necrons. He also did the novella Severed, which is about Obyron and Zahndrekh being tired and gay. Genestealer stuff is a mixed bag, but Day of Ascension by Adrian Tchaikovsky is an incredibly good look at how the awfulness of the Imperium allows for GSCs to proliferate. Brutal Kunnin by Mike Brooks and Ghazghkull Thraka by Nate Crowley are phenomenally fun Ork books.

There are other books and anthologies, of course, but these are the main ones, in my mind.

[transmechanicus]

Where would you advise someone interested in reading 40k books start?

It depends on what you’re interested in about 40k. The books tend to be very faction specific, so if you’re interested in say the Adeptus Mechanicus, there’s (maybe) not going to be much reason for you to read a book about Fabius Bile. There are some 40k books that are commonly regarded as being more foundational to the setting in the early 2000s, some that are advancing the story and were published last week, and others that have recently become fan favorites due to their broad comedic and story quality. So, TL;DR, i can give more specific recommendations if i know what you like abt 40k.

“Classic” books that are approachable for complete beginners to the setting in my experience or according to trusted sources:

The Night Lords trilogy (Soul Hunter, Blood Reaver, Void Stalker) by Aaron Demski Bowden

The Eisenhorn, Ravenor, and Bequin novels by Dan Abnett

Priests of Mars and sequels by Graham McNiel

Books advancing the current ‘story’ of 40k in M42:

Dark Imperium, Plague War, and Godblight by Guy Haley, focused on the Indomitus Crusade

Fabius Bile: (Primogenitor, Clonelord, Manflayer) by Josh Reynolds

The Great Work, and Genefather by Guy Haley again, focused on Belisarius Cawl

The Dawn of Fire series (various authors)

Books i just like or heard really good things about

Twice Dead King by Nate Crowley

Infinite and Divine by Robert Rath

Ascension Day by Adrian Tchaikovsky

The Ahriman series by John French

Krieg and Siege of Vraks by Steve Lyons

If i missed any real bangers you can check the notes of this and i’m sure someone will pipe up😂

Taking a break from complaining about necron treatment to complain about Tyranid treatment! Because the fact that nids don't have their own books/lore/characters is bonkers to me. "Oooooh, they're too vast and alien to comprehend blah blah blah giving them characters undermines the mystery and horror..." NO! COWARDS! You want to sit there and tell me no author in the history of science fiction has ever effectively written from the POV of the alien? The inhuman? Made it both chilling and sympathetic? Never???

Gee it sure would be nice if Games Workshop had ever worked with a Hugo Award-winning author who had previously written a series including the POVs of hyper-evolved intelligent alien spiders. And it would be even better if that author had already written a book about Genestealers and so likely understood tyranid lore. OH NO WHERE SHALL WE FIND SUCH AN INDIVIDUAL???

Oh hey look it's Adrian Tchaikovsky! Author of the fantastic 40k book Day of Ascension. Go! Give him a pile of money to solve the Tyranid lore problem. Robert Rath and Nate Crowley fixed necrons, this clearly can be done. Hive tyrants and lictors already have enough individual personality to become characters in their own rights. Deathleaper exists. This is so, so doable.

There, solved the problem. I expect my copy of the new Tyranid novel in the mail. You're welcome

No pressure, free game

[demonir]

Welcome to Adrian’s good omens thoughts while he’s half asleep again, on todays episode I want to talk about how important the gender expression in the show is to me

Don’t mind the typos I’m lying down without my glasses

I really appreciate how subtle they are about characters genders and stuff, characters with commonly male names being played by actresses and they still use stuff like “sir” or “lord” even if they also get referred to as they/them. They don’t make an intense effort to make them look incredibly androgynous either which like- idk it’s nice.

Knowing neither angels or demons have a defined gender also feels so so so nice because it comes paired with the fact they still choose to present in specific ways and use specific pronouns because newsflash bozo someone can be nonbinary or agender and still present masc as fuck or fem as fuck and use either he/him or she/her and if they wake up 2 weeks from now and change that they are still valid.

Which takes me to my second favorite point, Crowley’s change in gender presentation. I know we all know or at the very least agree he’s genderfluid but like I want to highlight the way he does it because it means so much to me. He has obviously chosen to be masc presenting through most of history (that we’ve seen, there could still be periods of time we haven’t seen where she’s been fem) and idk abt you but I was a tumblr teen years ago learning a very skewed version of gender identity and expression where if you wanted to be genderfluid you had to look very attractive as both genders and also PASS as both genders convincingly (as well as being perfectly androgynous when being neither, this also applied to nonbinary people), as well as change it like every 2 days or so and have no preference? That’s the way people would make it seem to me, that’s the way people would portray their genderfluid characters in fandom spaces and that’s the way my teenage mind came to absorb it.

Now, it’s 2024 and I’m sure all of us with common sense know this is bogus but still seeing Crowley just sorta… brightened my everything? Knowing nanny Crowley wasn’t just for the joke, knowing that during certain scenes she was indeed being fem… but the most important part to me is that no matter what he was still HIM, they could have gone the easy route and have an actress play fem Crowley and be like “oh well she’s a demon she can shapeshift whenever ooooo” like so many people do with their ocs (I was one at one point) but it is still obviously him, it is still David Tennant playing Crowley and nobody else and when she’s fem she’s still got the same features the same everything and that’s somehow just… so freeing to see? It’s realistic, it’s grounding. You can be fem and still have overly masculine features, you can be fem and still have facial hair, you can be masc and still wear makeup, you can be masc and not hide your chest.

Now I wish this was all just… more obvious to everyone, I know some of this stuff because I saw posts, I saw people talking about it… but not everyone is gonna go through a 3 hour post scavenger hunt for extra lore like I do and these things are simply not addressed in the show. There IS a certain freeing feeling to the gender stuff not being addressed, it simply happens, it passes by and you might not even notice, but also comes with the double edged sword of people simply thinking SOME of the characters have funny genders but the others don’t.

Sorry I’m distracted rn bc I can hear a fucking bohemian rhapsody cover coming from my moms tv the timing of this is fucking wild, anyways I’m gonna try to get my thoughts back on track

So yeah, to some people like for example my aforementioned mother, the nanny Crowley thing was merely a joke and nothing else, not a brief moment of gender expression but just a perhaps even nasty joke played at the expense of other people. To her every other Crowley before and after that has been strictly cis male and mlm despite the fact I did in fact explain to her that he’s not, same applies to Aziraphale and perhaps even harder because we only ever see him presenting masculine through the entirety of it and trying to explain otherwise to the woman that thinks she can use she/he on me because I’m bisexual will not work (and she refuses to use he/him on me anyways mind you, or my chosen name. Says it’s too complicated, but I know for a fact that if one of the characters had changed their name mid show she would switch to the new name instantly…..yknow… just casual transphobia for me only)

I would like just…a passing comment or a scene that lets everyone know the nuance yknow? Finally something that cannot be disputed by everyone, and you might say “well but Crowley says he’s neither when he gets called a good lad” and to that I say yes but people still dispute the meaning behind it, my mom certainly would. And again you might want to shake the nanny scene in front of me and again I’ll remind you of people thinking it was just a joke, a disguise, a singular haha funny. You might want to gesture towards other scenes or moments or passing phrases but the thing is they will or have already been debated on because people will try to deny it no matter fucking what and it’s FRUSTRATING, so perhaps it’s just me being petty or wanting to give them a good ol fuck you but I’d like it if either Crowley or Aziraphale or both just looked at the camera head on and went “we are not men, also Crowley is genderfluid” no ifs no butts no second meaning just straight to your face, a giant “shut the fuck up” to annoying people.

Now I’m not gonna die if this doesn’t happen, I’m fine with that… it just sorta feels depressing seeing someone in the wild genuinely saying shit like “why are you using she/her for Crowley? He’s a man” my brother in Christ I am about to hit you with the mallet of knowledge and you won’t be able to look at that demon the same way ever again.

The gender expression in good omens matters so much to me as someone who struggles with her own and Crowley and Beelzebub matter so much to me as a little afab genderfluid/nonbinary (I’m not sure yet) motherfucker, I need to go bite some fuckinf ccomcrete right now man, accidental typo but I’m keeping it.
