#loved the vids liz had taken

[philibetexcerpts]

“Elizabeth and Philip spent a night at Treetops Hotel, a three-bedroom cabin built among the branches of a large fig tree above an illuminated salt lick in a game preserve. Dressed in khaki trousers and a bush scarf, Elizabeth excitedly filmed the elephants, rhinos, monkeys, and other animals with her movie camera. At sunset, she and Philip spotted a herd of thirty elephants. ‘Look, Philip, they’re pink!’ she said, not realizing that the gray pachyderms had been rolling in pink dust.”

Slightly off topic, but I wonder how Joe’s family has been processing everything.

omg don't get me started. I wonder everyday! I have said this ig a load of times that they broke a family when they broke the rlt. and I genuinely mean it cause it is the f-ing truth.

I mean Imma talk bout frosty crews first. they i think are cool and helping joe to back to where he was idk how you do that. but lbr, they let her in their space too and they have literally put up with umbrellas and bill/ed (idk who was pretending to be joe) pretending to be joe while they sneak out out of a frreaking restaurant they went to celebrate their friend's birthday.

now bout the alwyns....

pat is facing the most here ig cause he is nyu. literally studin drama and dating a singer who wrote at least 2 songs bout him. i think his friends may be weird to him atp. idk what and how he is handling. I'm sure this will affect his relationship with his gf cause I think they may have looked up to swiftwyn cause they have the same dynamic as swiftwyn. idk, atp I would be skeptical of my rlt too.

now liz..... idk man. that woman supported her everywhere. when joe couldn't be in the atw premiere she went with him. I think she really thought of tay as her daughter. they were close as fuck I hope (look at the funeral vids!(I mean don't but do ig idk ))

then idk about rick and tom. but still it's sure affect them too I bet cause they also let her in on their family. I mean afaik, the funeral was rick's relative's and tay was there so.

basically she was completely taken in in his family as the daughter/ daughter in law.

Idk about the swifts tho. but I think andrea might be devastated. but they'll pass better than the alwyns. I ain't saying they are not hurt or didn't take joe in their family as much as the alwyns. but the alwyns had to change their complete lifestyle for swiftwyn.

joe chose tay and everything with her. his fam didn't. mind you.

also i love how pat went to, unlike both his brothers, a public high school after swiftwyn got together. I bet alwyns tried their best to keep him down to earth (he is down to earth as we have heard so far so it worked ig)

ZODIAC SIGN! ♡     leo

TAKEN OR SINGLE! ♡    in a relationship

———  THREE  FACTS! ♡

1! ♡     almost every cat i’ve ever had was orange, with the exception of two

2! ♡     i watch dnd crafting vids for self care lmao

3! ♡     i have a facial scar from a bouncy castle

PLATFORMS USED! ♡   right now mostly tumblr, will do discord if asked. i’ve done.. a lot of platforms in the past though

———  MUSE  PREFERENCE! ♡

GENDER! ♡    literally doesn’t matter, just depends on my mood

LEAST FAVOURITE FACE(S)! ♡   not important because no one’s writing using them with me lol

MULTI OR SINGLE! ♡    again, doesn’t matter. i have way too many muses and ocs for me to create single muse blogs. there’s pros and cons to both

——— FLUFF / ANGST / SMUT! ♡    

FLUFF:   im pretty bad with just straight up fluff plots, but i do like writing it from time to time. it’s a nice comfort zone 

ANGST:   my favorite. it’s best when you cry or make your partners cry

SMUT:     i’ll write it privately and i very rarely do explicit stuff, and tend to focus more on feelings and thoughts and use it for character development. love headcanons tho

PLOT / MEMES! ♡    both, honestly. i love memes but sometimes it is easier to have a jumping off plot to go with. it doesn’t have to be super complicated either, just like ‘human au where this conflict happens’ can be a perfect starting point

Have been a charmie and at some point you stopped shipping them? I’m curious, why did it happen? If that’s the story actually... 😘

Hey nonnie, I’ve never called myself a charmie, I find this monicer rather ridiculous - but I did ship A/T and I still read a few authors who write for that ship... but I’m not super passionate about it or invested in it anymore, that’s true.

Why?

Because it stopped being fun and became a toxic cult.

You know, in the beginning (for me that was late summer 2017) T and A seemed rather cute together. They were goofy, had chemistry, they were kinda opposites (Tim lanky and dark and the newby, Armie tall, muscled, more experienced in the business), they were in this movie together that looked beautiful so... why not ship them?

Shipping, to me, means imagining two people being together and writing stories about it, chatting with friends, making stuff up, joking around and fantasize a little. It’s not real but something I imagine. And it’s being taken with a wink, with humor. Everyone involved knows it’s made up shit. And as long as it stays in fan spaces, I don’t see any harm done.

Well, that is not the case anymore.

So called fans or ‘shippers’ (they don’t ship, they KNOW, therefore the air quotes) harrass the real life partners and friends and associates and business partners of A and T. That is one thing I really don’t like. Keep stuff in fan spaces fgs!

But these people also harrass fellow fans who don’t agree with them. Like, wish them or their kids death, call them homophobes, call them all kinds of names, try to dox and mob them. Why should I be in a fandom that’s so full of hate and toxicity? I don’t have time for shit like that.

I still follow a few people on here who get it (you know who you are) but it becomes increasingly hard to find them.

That abyssmal state of the fandom shows esp in a field that’s really important to me and that I usually enjoy most: fan fic. I only still read about 5 authors. About half the people writing for the fandom are part of this toxic swamp I try to avoid like the plague (can we still say that?) on here and I wouldn’t touch their stories with a ten foot pole if you paid me money. Most of the other stories circle around things that simply don’t interest me or explore issues for the umpteenth time. I’m not saying that’s bad - write what the hell you like, create the 100th high school AU, whatever - but it just bores me (that is my problem. I also remeber a time when we had so much variety and creativity... go take a look at the older stories from 2017/2018, there are some true gems to be found!). It’s also a small fandom and maybe that’s the reason it becomes rather apparent that 80% of all WIPs get abandoned? Which is disappointing for a reader (I might be guilty of that as well, I don’t blame the writes, I blame the general atmosphere of this fandom that’s becoming less and less inspiring). I guess that only reflects the state of the fandom in general.

When ‘fans’ or ‘shippers’ are more into the private lives of the folks they stan (which might seem ‘natural’ for a real person ship but crosses a line when it’s carried into these peoples’ real lives), up to the point where it becomes harrassment, delusional, crazy, dangerous, rude, insulting, embarrassing and destructive, instead of supporting their faves - then it’s no wonder that this negativity creeps into other parts of fandom, driving writers and creators away.

(I recently came about a post re Tim where I had to read in the tags that he’s a great actor and that it’s sad that he has such a terrible fan base; that hurt.)

It has come to the point where I’m embarrassed to be associated with this ship - due to the very vocal delusional bunch of so-called ‘fans’ who are only interested in how much dick T gets from A. Like, for real REAL. In this fandom, a big chunk of people truly belief to KNOW that A and T are fucking like rabbits, that A will get a divorce soon (apparently since 2017; what are these people even hoping for???) and that T will only live for his daddy’s dick after that. And they go to ANY length to state and proof this and shout everyone down who might disagree. (Maybe they should masturbate a bit more to get these highly sexualized fantasies out of their systems? It also shows a lot about them, the way they view gender and sexuality, how they assign roles in this ship and what kind of behaviour/personality traits they depict over and over again. I could go on about the blatant, toxic heteronormativity that shows in this gay ‘ship’ that pretends to support LGB sexualities but this is already way too long lol).

I mean, if you want to rearrange your life around something like this - knock yourself out. It’s just not for me. There was a point I was really disappointed about these developments. Then I was angry for a few ‘bad apples’ destroying a place I loved. Now I only laugh about these people, though with some I really have pity because you can see in their posts how hard these mostly young, heterosexual women project  and that they truly have issues in their lives they should rather tackle instead of harrassing some other women on the internet who have the privilege to share the beds of the people they pretend to stan for real.

Oh, but it’s absolutely no use to talk to these so-called hardcore charmie ‘shippers’ - they are so deep down the rabbit whole they can’t and won’t come out of it or even listen. If you only say you don’t care who A or T are into for real you are a traitor, an anti, a homophobe, dumb as shit, dense, blind... That’s not a fun place in this fandom.

I mean, I was tempted to believe, too, for about 4 weeks late 2017. I was drawn intot hat dynamic of being privy to some insider info, feeling important, being in the know... But I’m so glad I was told that Liz was in Crema almost all the time during the filming - so the little stories A and T told were promo and nothing more. That was my moment of waking up. It took me like three days to come to terms with the fact that all I imagined was truly only a fantasy - but I’m so grateful I accepted that early on and was spared a lot of disappontment by that. I know a lot of people who weren’t so lucky and are now spending their days spinning more and more delusional theories to keep the world they built together...

Rn I see huge parts of the fandom trying to ‘disprove’ things they won’t belief or accept because it goes against their ‘knowledge’ of ‘what’s really going on’. So much energy goes into arguing that posts are fake and people lie etc etc. I can’t keep up with all this nonsense. And why should I? This is not fun. This is madness. This is negativity. This is destructive. Besides, most proofs are tarot readings and the analysis of pics and vids taken out of context (or are even manips). But I suppose these people find some kind of validation in their behavior? It just eludes me. I’ve deleted most of my fics, blocked and unfollowd almost everyone, and be warned, if you have charmie in your header that’s a sign for me to keep my distance...

But all of this is only my opinion, you are welcome to disagree, carve your own happy place out here, do as you please. I would never go on anyone’s blog to lecture them or police them but you asked so here’s what I have to say.

[fictionxlover]

I’m seeing some say they are whitewashing Sam’s past...

Okay for me who supports morally grey decisions from fictional characters she did it for her brother. People can say oh she could of got a job at mcds or something but Sam grew up basically on her own. She kinda had that life you hear in the Lana Del Rey songs lmao. It’s all she know. So she did what she did.

Now is it right?? No and be cool if Sam looked back and was like wow even tho I did it for love...that was bad...I don’t want my daughter to ever do that.

Also I kinda get when people say whitewashing. I haven’t rewatched Sam 06/07/08 scenes but Ik there stuff in old GH they don’t mention on today’s GH.

I mean just yesterday i saw someone post a vid on twitter where Sam was bitching to Liz about Jason/Lucky above EMILYS DEAD BODY. Like Jason sister is dead. You know how much Jason loved Em like you loved Danny and you bitching @ Liz in front of her dead BFF about how Lucky will feel...even tho Liz already knows how Lucky will feel cuz they all grew up together-That made me be like ugh sam wyd sis 😂💀😭 (im here for Sam’s idgaf attitude but sometimes it also makes her seem ooc)

I get people think it’s whitewashing. Honestly it just seems more of a new writers are lazy or they don’t want new fans to know all these characters dirty deeds then they would prob dislike them. I mean think of the viewers who didn’t grow up watching this show and only know maybe stuff that’s happened since 2012 or even 2010? Reminding the audience of the lowest their favs done is a RISK. It’s a risk that should be taken (and is on days) but GH just decides not to...

Fan videos

Jeremy Chetri- Wynonna Earp

Soon as i opened the list of fan videos, the first thing I did was to find one for Jeremy because he’s my favorite!  He’s always happy, smart, funny, and talks a lot and even the music used had lyrics that repeated ‘I feel gooodd’. This is representative of Jeremy because of his happy moods. There was no moment of him being sad or going through some difficult moments in the fan vid because there isn’t any scene like that in the show so far!

Wynonna Earp- Dangerous (Doc/Dolls/Bobo/Jeremy)

This fan vid starts out with a brief moment of each of the four men. And that alone gave the video a great start because it showed important traits of each of them. A scene with Doc lighting up a cigarette, one with Dolls frowning and pulling out a gun, one with Bobo sitting and being surrounded by revenants working for him, and one with Jeremy smiling since he’s almost always in a good mood. It is evident that the creator was intentional when picking a song and editing the video. There was a part where the lyrics said “I’m not going anywhere” and this line was accompanied with the scene of Bobo coming back from the dead (he’s back and not going anywhere like the song said). Another part had lyrics that said “I’ll have you begging for mercy” and the creator used a scene where Doc just finished beating some people up. I like that! This fan vid also made me pay attention to how different Doc, Dolls, Bobo, and Jeremy are!

Multicouples - Run to you

I chose this one because it has a lot of my fav shows: TVD, Legacies, Sabrina, Sex Education, etc. I didn’t realize when I started having goosebumps while watching this fan video. It was well-made, emotional, and is almost a tear-jerker. I also realized that when I was watching these scenes in the actual shows, it didn’t give me chills or anything like that because I didn’t see them as important scenes. After seeing this compilation that has different couples’ struggles, moments of happiness, and many more, I felt like going back to these shows just to watch the scenes again from a different point of view and with more empathy for the couples.

Wayhaught- without me Halsey

This fan vid showed heartbreaking, romantic (kiss scenes), and happy moments with Waverly and Haught. Nice video but I don’t think the song did justice to their relationship. The song describes someone loving another and having their back only for them to get betrayed and taken advantage of. That doesn’t relate to Waverly and Haught. The only line that relates to them is where the song says ‘And if they laugh, then f em all’ because Waverly really didn’t care about other people’s opinions- not even Wynonna’s- when she started liking Haught and wanted to start a relationship with her. They were upfront about what they wanted and went for it! 

One Girl Revolution (Saving Jane) - The Women of Roswell New Mexico

This video focused on Liz, Isobel, Maria, Cameron, and Rosa. Before watching it, I thought it was going to focus on almost all of the women but it didn’t cause characters like Mimi and Kyle’s mum were absent. I like this fan vid especially because it shows these women having a great time (even though we don’t really see much of this in the show), being badasses and strong. The song also fits this video perfectly because it had lyrics such as ‘we take over the world’ ‘having a good time’ etc
