Remind me again why Zervis is a cute ship? Zeref was literally the guild's worst enemy and Mavis gets to live happily ever after with the guy that killed her in the first place. SMH in disappointment.
"I have a love-hate relationship with T'Pring in SNW. On the one hand, I absolutely love her. Her character is amazing, and every episode she was in, her actress knocked it out of the park. She's tries very hard to be attentive to Spock's needs, both Vulcan and Human, and she is very much not your typical Vulcan.
But on the other, the storyline around her completely shifts the dynamics of what happens in the Pon Farr episode and makes me not like Spock as much because now with SNW, he's a cheater who still seems to expect that T'Pring is just going to be waiting for him.
In TOS, T'Pring's decision is kind of a bitch move sprung on Spock with the implication of being more "Vulcans are lowkey racists" but with SNW context, it's honestly completely fair to tell the guy who cheated on you that actually no I'm not marrying you because I deserve better, sorry our laws require you to fight to the death now, I didn't write them.
I want to love T'Pring so much because she's one of the most complicated female characters on the show but God what the show does to Spock in the process of that development makes me so sad."
That pain you feel when you can’t make extremely specific references to a piece of childhood media that was burned into your very psyche and is in many ways the backbone of your entire sense of humor
Big Spoilers for the last episode of fantasy high, but I was very interested in learning the party’s damage and kill counts, so on my rewatch I recorded everything and thought I’d share it with you!
Also just a reminder that damage and kills don’t translate to how competent an adventurer is, every single player really shone in this fight and I just wanted to share some cool stats with y’all
Kristen Applebees: Damage - 16 : Kills - 9
Adaine Abernant: Damage - 155 : Kills - 2
Riz Gukgak: Damage - 264 : Kills - 3
Gorgug Thistlespring: Damage - 321 : Kills - 1
Fabian Seacaster: Damage - 342 : Kills - 4
And finally coming in, Figueroth Faeth with a whopping 20 kills and a total of 493 points of damage!!!
So,after i saw the preview of the new episode of Hotd I’m on my knees for dilf Daemon (blame it on my daddy issues).Can you write a Daemon x Targaryen!reader where they teach their children how to ride their dragons for the first time?We all know how Daemon is but i feel like he would be an amazing dad!
Dragon Riders - Daddy!Daemon x Mother!Reader
Summary: Daemon shows your children how to ride dragons for the first time
Basically i got the inspiration of the scene of them riding with the children from the ending of how to train your dragon where hiccup and astrid's children meet toothless and his family ya know??
Warnings: None pure fluff and lovely Dovey Daemon
Words: 321

“Dracarys!” Your daughter Alyssa shouts causing Caraxes to shoot fire from his mouth and earning a praise from her father.
“Good my little firestone, just like that” Daemon says as he kisses Alyssa’s hair.
You smile while holding Bradyn as you both ride on the back of your dragon Volant.
Alyssa and Daemon begin to fly lower, alyssa taking the riens this time and guiding Caraxes on her own this time, while you are Bradyn gently glided through the air on Volant. Bradyn still being a bit skeptical about dragon riding, soon you and daemon switch children having both dragons glide next to eachother as you do so.
“Mama when will i be able to ride alone?” Alyssa asks while looking back up at you, you smile down sweetly at her
“When your father thinks you to be ready, which knowing him wont be until you are 30 little dove” You snicker at her little pout.
Daemon had said today was the day you teach your children how to ride dragons, as the twins were now 6 years of age. You however wanted to wait just another year but the three of them managed to convince you, caving into the pleads of your children was most definetly the best thing since both children were naturals.
When you all land again your children rush off to go and play. You turn to Daemon, “Perhaps you were right on deciding today was the day the children were ready to begin their riding lessons” you say as you wrap an arm around his middle.
He kisses the top of your head, “They are Targaryen children after all, and Targaryen’s are the children of dragons” he says smiling.
No one ever expected that a girl from a village would be the one to capture the rouge prince’s heart and tame him, but here you are 7 years later, happy with the little family you created.
Supernatural (2005) through the lens of narratology, recent roundup
Wikipedia: Narratology is the study of narrative and narrative structure and the ways that these affect human perception. [...] Cognitive narratology is a more recent development that allows for a broader understanding of narrative. Rather than focus on the structure of the story, cognitive narratology asks "how humans make sense of stories" and "how humans use stories as sense-making instruments".
Supernatural is a very attractive media franchise for narratologists. There are quite a few papers that include narratological analysis of Supernatural and related phenomena, such as narrative perception in fandom. Here are some from the past decade. I'll continuously update this if I find more.
