#but she persevered

[dottable]

if she were present in the season, paxton would have made more sensible decisions earlier

modern au pre-relationship farcille (marcille pov)

a few years into the future, falin befriends doni and fionil(a half-elf) on one of her trips and offers to be their surrogate without telling anyone. everyone has mixed reactions when she comes home five months pregnant.

marcille particularly was angry, at first she thought falin had sex w a stranger or someone took advantage of her but none of that happened, it was just IVF. marcille has to learn to deal with falin making her own decisions, even though she thinks she’s too selfless that it’s kind of a flaw. helping take care of her along with laios as she reaches the third trimester, she can’t help but imagine a life like this with her and falls for her more and more

I know it must’ve really gagged Rhaenys when Vaemond told her that it was a queen that sat the throne. Like I bet it truly boils some Targaryens *cough Daemon cough* blood that little miss sad brown eyes with no dragon managed to peacefully rule over something they see as a right or a power only someone who is like them should have. They lash out at her because she is the outsider in ‘their’ territory.

And it’s extra sad bc Alicent literally tried with all of them. She dressed in red and black, she wanted to show Daemon those nasty tapestries, she supported Rhaenyra’s claim till she just couldn’t anymore. She wanted to ‘assimilate’ bc often that is all you can do when you are in a hostile environment or powder keg situation. It’s why I hate the ‘alicent’s kids aren’t real targs’ or ‘she’s trying to get rid of targ culture’ arguments. On top of just not making sense, it’s not true. She TRIED. All she was met with was resentment, often for decisions that were out of her control.

It is easy for them to use Alicent (the outsider) as a scapegoat bc if they didn’t they’d have to look at their own behavior and how their ‘Targaryen exceptionalism’ has done nothing but make them greedy and stupid

☆ cure dolly posting ☆

since the start of 2024, i've been learning japanese from a youtube channel called organic japanese with cure dolly! she's been a game changer for me, teaching japanese from a japanese speaker pov instead of as an english speaker trying to make it fit english rules. she covers a wide breadth of context behind the various topics of her videos, including the philosophy of language, the cultural implications of language, and the root connections between words. for ex. わけ / wake, a common word meaning 'the cause/reason of a situation', connects to 分かる / wakaru, which means do understandable, but fundamentally means divide/separate/break down, which is a sword (刀) cutting something in half = 分.

and she's very good at clearing up the misconception that japanese is a difficult language to learn. it's actually highly logical, especially compared to the bizarre rules of english. (<- this is a joke video but at the same time i think clearly demonstrates how absolutely bonkers english is.)

she has over 200 videos in her channel, and they cover everything from the most basic, fundamental rules of japanese grammar (だ・い・う engines + invisible が subject), to discussing the hypotheses of linguistic professors while teaching her viewers about language aquisition.

the person behind the cure dolly channel passed away in 2021. she always referred to herself as an android and has never revealed her true name, occupation, or anything about her private life. i cannot properly explain how much her passion and humor has moved me while watching her videos. i can't explain how it feels to see her channel subscribers keep climbing slowly but surely, years after she passed. people leave comments like these on all of her videos:

she makes the language take place all over my brain.

she puts it in my heart!

good morning. neuvillette with a dragon!child!reader who, once everything blows over in fontaine, goes to find furina and gives her the biggest hug. they've known her for a very long time. and many times, perhaps she almost, almost cracked to them... but her resolve stood strong every time, and she would backtrack with a laugh and some dramatic flair.

while they can't understand how badly she must have suffered, because they aren't human and their mind is not so fragile, they can at least imagine it. and they can't help but think that maybe she doesn't want to be alone right now; she's been alone for five hundred years. if she wants to be left alone... that's fine, and they know she'll tell them that, but at the very least, as one of her best friends (perhaps her very best one), should they not go check on her?

idk i'm going to play her story quest today probably so i will return with more thoughts!

I did not listen to a single word of his speech because I was focused on the poor woman who held his umbrella throughout the entire thing. You could literally see the five stages of grief across her face as the speech went on 😭😭 She was smiling at first and then slowly became more serious, at some point you could see her hand starting to tremble and lower ever so slightly. Then you could see her start to BREATHE in and out steadying herself as the umbrella peaked into frame and then went back up. This was 1000 times more tense and enthralling than the torches being passed, I was on the edge of my seat. 10/10 no notes

[telndas]

unironically, reading asunder has made me think of a way to give suhani more of a purpose beyond origins that isn't just "finding a cure" that allows for better flexibility. and she will have a lil wisp friend along with barkimides. truly living the dream

Does anyone ever think about how the only other person besides Guda who affirms in text that Morgan's Britain was beautiful... is fucking Percival of all people?

Percival. A manufactured human of Faerie Britain who can't live more than 30 years, leader of the rebel army fighting against her, named after one of the Knights of the Round Table from Proper Human History, the human raised as a backup Child of Prophecy, the human who took up the spear Morgan discarded. Of all fucking people.
