and would it be an over-exaggeration for me to say that the crowning scene in Miss Congeniality (2000) is the funniest 2 minutes in cinema history

saw a tweet earlier today about how a certain mobage i won’t name has the “best localization on the market especially when it comes to slangs” and man how quickly we forget our roots. The actual only best localization we ever had.

SO, I SAW THIS PICTURE RIGHT HERE ON PINTEREST...
And I thought, at first, that it was just a fanart, right??
just a fanart, a really nice one.
And, i mean, why would the novel include such a situation of Xie Lian in heat to say the least, completely overwhelmed by lust and mortal desires, accompanied for Hong-er (who i finally know it's hua cheng's younger self)...right??
Like, that kind of situation only occurs in fanfics, right?? right?!?!
so...I WAS WRONG!!
This picture is FUCKING CANON!!!
I CAN'T STILL FUCKING BELEIVE IT!!!
I can just say that...I'm falling in love with mxtx novels. That's it.
Because...IT WAS SO CONVENIENT, MAN!! BUT ALSO SO WELL DONE!!
Mister laughstocking of the three realms here was drugged in the middle of the forest by flowers with an aphrodisiac effect (basically).
And yeah!!, HE STARTED TO FEEL SO HOT INSIDE THE CAVE, Y'KNOW??
IT WAS A LITTLE TO HOT IN THERE, am i right??
So he started to stripped down, sweating like crazy, moaning, winning all the way...
and then... HE NEEDED HELP!! He was trying to keep up with the 'purity of mind' bullsh*t and was mostly going insane for bloodlust...
SO, GUESS WHO WAS ALSO THERE?!?!
Not Feng Xin, not Mu Qing nor Wind Master...
NON OTHER THAN MISTER SATAN ITSELF, HUA CHENG!!!
I mean...when he was a kid. his younger self.
He was just thirteen back then.
So yeah!! I loved it wasn't weird the narration, to be honest. Nothing weird nor cringe happened between them even thought xl was...impotent at the moment...
because, yeah, a 20 yo guy messing up in that way with a kid 7 years younger...would have been quite weird to read, honestly.
But it wasn't!! It didn't end the way i was preparing myself to be.
And, well, for the context, it made sense all of it, obviously.
I was actually surprised.
As a obsesive reader myself, i'm used to see this kind of specific situation only at fanfiction most of times. and when they happen in canon...i've find myself reading really uncomfortable scenes which a later regret to read, y'know?
So, I was truly taken aback when I realized where all the 'yao flowers' were about, and when xl entered inside the cave with Hong-er and started going insane for the heat, lust and all...
not gonna lie, i was excited. but nervious, at the same time.
I knew that this situation could become weird at any moment with the wrong line or wrong description...but I was soooo relieved that it wasn't that way!!
I'm truly happy for that. and even when Hong-er touched him!!! even that scene didn't feel cringe nor inappropiate.
you get what i mean??
I just wanted to share my reaction with this chapter and also wanted to point out that, yeah, the novels are good. like, reallyy good.
I don't regret discovering this new fandom and show, not a bit. and yeah...i'll continue reading. I'm heading towards book 4 now, hehe.

just played a kids on brooms valentine's oneshot and,, holy fucking crap i am still weeping
what it all comes down to: local aroace himbo jock becomes the quiet protector of love at his local valentine's festival even though he did not want to at the first place, because he felt really uncomfortable by the pretence of being known as a 'heart thief' while desperately trying to ignore the girls who were falling head over heels for him and he did not know how to deal with, the protector of something that he does not experience in the ways that his peers experience it, and fucking OFFERS up his own heart if it means that this weird fucking void creature stops trying to literally steal people's hearts and leaving their chests like empty cavities, and when that doesn't work, fucking plunges his OWN fist inside of the entities' chest to get them back, crowning himself the heart thief of the festival

i know this isn't a new take but if we could have duplicate names on goatlings i'd literally spend so much irl money on that site it's not even funny ;-; there's an extent to which i do enjoy names being unique bc i have a few pretty good ones and i love being a member of the goat bourgeoisie, but i also would spend real money on dd for adoption tickets if i could fill my profile w silly fandom reference goats

fuck everyone who hates on the star wars prequels, is it not enough for you to have the man who created the greatest space opera movie of its era prove to you that it was just a fluke and that his soft-magic system is actually as simple as it sounded. just let him run around and have a gaggle of dumb actors look pretty while i just stared in awe at how the lighting looked for most of the movie
also the first movie i ever cried during that i can remember was when i couldnt hold it back anymore during the climactic fight of revenge of the sith

King: [suddenly] If we've nothing more to say to each other, we might as well go and get warm!
Becket: We have everything to say to each other, my prince. The opportunity may not occur again.
King: Make haste, then. Or there'll be two frozen statues on this plain, making their peace in a frozen eternity! I am your King, Becket! And so long as we are on this earth you owe me the first move! I'm prepared to forget a lot of things but not the fact that I am King. You yourself taught me that.
Becket: [gravely] Never forget it, my prince. Even against God. You have a different task to do. You have to steer the ship.
King: And you - what do you have to do?
Becket: Resist you with all my might, when you steer against the wind.

Jean Anouilh, Becket (tr. Lucienne Hill, 1960)
#100plays#becket#jean anouilh#lucienne hill#modern drama#theatre quotes#1960#french theatre#for what it's worth‚ i think the meeting between henry and becket on the windswept plain is one of the great scenes of mid20th#century drama. anouilh pulls all the strings of his work together‚ every half explored idea and tentative theme#all gels together in a meeting which is as much about the betrayal of lovers as it is about duty and honour#becket and the king have not faced one another since the former was made archbishop by the latter; their great rivalry and battle of wills#has been performed entirely at one remove‚ between messangers and proxies. as they meet at last there's little formality to hide behind#only that one they create for themselves#the ship metaphor is a nicely constructed bit of call back; Becket uses it at the start of the play‚ cunningly‚ for Henry and against#the Church; here finally he reiterates the idea perfectly sincerely‚ but the use is changed. now it defines their positions‚ his for the#Church and (by the King's standards‚ to the King's eyes) by default against the Crown#and of course Becket is right‚ they will not meet again#this section bears comparison with the final trial scenes of Bolt's A Man for All Seasons (coincidentally also premiering in its stage#version in 1960). both depict a man of god at odds with the king he is nevertheless loyal to; both contrast the idea of duty to ones#monarch with duty to God‚ the idea of honour and truth. but where Thomas More is fighting for his life‚ Thomas Becket seems all too eager#to offer his up; he knows that his return to England will almost certainly end in his death‚ yet he resolves to travel home before this#uneasy reconciliation is even suggested. fate is another idea toyed with by both plays‚ but it is Becket who seems to believe entirely#in predestination; not only does he apparently foresee his own death‚ he appears certain that it is the correct path#it's interesting to consider the Folliot quote i previously posted‚ about the 'temptation of saintliness'‚ and to wonder at how much of a#draw that was in Becket's impending martyrdom. when asked by Henry whether he has grown to love God‚ Becket replies only#that he has grown to love the honour of God. the distinction is his own‚ but it's the crucial line of the play‚ the crux on which Becket's#strange‚ contradictory‚ mercurial person is hung

Had another dream story idea and it's BAD out here y'all. My subconscious said "you don't go for sad old white men yaoi? Well here's one and you have to care about it so much. Good luck"
#the braiiiin worms#The surrounding story was very good lotr asoiaf 80's fantasy epic and then there were these two dudes just So Achingly In Love oh my GOD#Basically they had been knights together back in the day during their own Young Men Do Big Things story and deposed the evil mage king#They were just village boys turned soldiers who fell in love and did something good#but then the one was basically forced to become king because he'd killed the last one and had to get married and produce an heir#So he does get married but tells the queen he's never going to sleep w her and she can fuck who she likes and her kids can have the throne#Since he's not even nobility he doesn't care about The Bloodline#His lover is promoted to “protector of the king” 👀 and they manage to be happy despite the restrictions of royal life#Eventually though it comes out that the king's kids aren't his#And this sparks a conflict between “loyalists” who want the True King's Legacy and the “monarchists” who want Real Noble Lineage#With the queen basically standing back and watching it happen as the crown prince decides now is a great time to try “patricide”#the lover finds the king's nephew (the loyalists' heir) and tells the guard to take him to distant family to raise until he's old enough#But the guard is like “he's gonna get found out in no time” so instead sells him to ppl who find exotic kids for nobles to keep as wards#and he basically disappears into a faraway household and the lover doesn't even know#Meanwhile the king survives a poison attempt but is now physically impaired and on high alert#He leaves with a small retinue to Do Some Business but when he comes back the castle gates are up and arrows start raining down#So it's him and his little group at the edge of a market vs. an entire castle#In the ambush/battle he is seriously wounded#and they try to fake his death to get back in the castle and then nurse him/sneak him out#But the prince doesn't take it at face value and stabs the “body” to make sure#and the lover has to act through watching his all-but-husband who'd just planned their escape from all this get killed in front of him#So that it doesn't blow his cover and get him killed too#That's about where the dream ended but I'm uggg g h gg#I'm SO invested in these two fantasy gays and their incredibly poetic relationship#Doesn't hurt that there were like 3 very graphic sex scenes between them across the timeline#And they were so obsessed with and hungry for each other the whole time.... the last one was just before the ambush#after the king has been left near-immobile from the poison and they're like 40-something#and the lover takes him away from all that and back to the days it was just them and he was strong#It was sooo romantic but also hell when can I get ravaged like that#Anyway I'm ruined and I can't even really work on it I have too many other things to do

Baldur's Bounties: Star Cheeks
Oh Weichei's freckles... Always a hot topic huh. I give him a kiss on da cheeks, mwah❣️
Bioluminescence was common down in the Underdark, be it in the fauna or the people. Weichei supposed it wasn’t common around Faerûn, or it was, but they didn’t look in the right places. His bioluminescence was shown through his freckles, but it was hardly noticeable in the day and even in the night. At least, until he starts to laugh or was experiencing an emotion that gets his cheeks hot. They seemed to glow brighter when it happens, and Temerity had loved to pepper them in kisses, because “gods you’re too fucking cute,” he’d say between kisses.
He’s not sure what had him laughing so hard, but his cheeks hurt and he’s heavily leaning against the log. His freckles were bright, apparent as the stars against the night sky. There was a sound of awe as his laughter died down. Karlach was close now, eyes sparkling as she carefully ran a finger across his cheek.
“Woah… So that’s why that bloke calls ya starcheeks!” she exclaimed.
Huffing the last of his laugh, he said, “Einar never lies. Should hear what he called the others.”
“I’d say though,” Dame Aylin piped, “Has the Moon Mother blessed you? Has she cried tears of joy upon your face when you were born?”
If he had a nickel for every time someone asked if he was star-blessed in a way, he’d have two nickels. 
Syretia Davina, a star elf-genasi, had queried if he was a child of Helian and Cereus at some point. She had caressed his cheek after having a glass of wine (they were having an intellectual discussion of sorts that he couldn’t recall), their cheeks flushed and warm. It was a tentative romance his husbands had encouraged, but it ended in a mutual break.
“I would dare not make you wait for me, for the time in the stars is different from the time down here. I have cherished my time with you starlight, more than you know. I will still continue to love you, but alas, we cannot be.” 
He remembered how he still cried despite it all, understanding and grieving. His freckles had dulled during those weeks, months? He had unexpectedly fallen hard for the star elf-genasi over the years. Her brilliant mind was what drew him in, having someone who can match his was absolutely exhilarating. Beau would easily point out how excitedly happy he was when he came home, Temerity sliding in to tease if he met someone special. 
He and Syretia still talk from time to time, sometimes the latter visited. He has once been in space for the spelljamming academy, but ultimately decided it wasn’t for him. After dying frozen in a simulation and saving the school from an incoming flaming rochetto and getting somehow charmed by a mindflayer, he decided to call the end of that journey. Syretia had recommended him, but didn’t see her within those months. So, mirror talks and visitations from Syretia from time to time only.
Now, he does flush at the idea of a god tearing up in joy when he was born. He never really thought of himself as something special, just a little drow making cannons. His partners and friends had assured him he was, but he just didn’t want to get too big of an ego about it. Stay humbled, because he’s so sure he’d get bit in the ass for it. He just doesn’t think he was a big deal, that’s all. He pressed a palm against a cheek, trying to hide a bit.
“Nie, nothing like that,” he replied, typically dark purple skin brightening to some dark magenta. His freckles twinkled at such an implication. “Bioluminescence is common down in the Underdark, and from time to time, the races down there get it.” He’s seen partial star maps on some. “Be it like this in some form.” He held up his free hand, the back of it dotted with stars. “Or tattoos.” He’s seen beautiful pieces, he’s contemplating on getting one done.
Maybe this was why some of the companions started trying to get him to laugh, giggle. Astarion was getting a bit more silly and over the top, and it all was just so funny to him. His lips always broke into a smile, freckles glowing.
Maybe this was why Wyll started to wax poetry about being the night sky personified. His cheeks burned and his freckles did so brightly, already shyly hiding one way or another. Wyll was tickled with his squeaking, trying to coax him from hiding so he could pepper those cheeks in kisses.
Maybe this was why Gale had temporarily weaved a crown of stars to set upon his head. A declaration of adoration as the wizard kissed his knuckles, willing to serve under the prince of stars.
