#old tales

[zappedbyzabka]

If anyone knows any film/story/lore like Beauty and the beast, Red Riding Hood, Lolita etc. Anything to do with Goddesses, or things with interesting religious imagery. Things with angels and demons and such, lmk pls—not good omens though, I mean older things to ancient <3. Tragic love stories yknow (except Lolita is NOT a love story.)

Lussevaka 🌟 after the deep darkness always come the light. Inspired by the Scandinavian believes that on the 12th December, Lussi the winter witch, comes during night with her horde Lussiferda, to steal the souls of the living who wander outside, or destroys homes that are untidy. The best way to guard oneself from evil is to light as much candles as possible and to stay awake through the night. On the 13th the light bringing Saint Lucy will make the demons go away until next year.

میرے دادا کو جب الزائمر ہوا تو وہ ہمیں کسی ایسی عورت کے نام سے پکارتے تھے جسے ہم نہیں جانتے تھے۔ وہ ہماری دادی نہیں تھیں۔

دل کی یاداشت بہت مضبوط ہوتی ہے.

When our grandfather got Alzheimer, he started calling all of us with a woman name we never heard of. It was not our grandmother's name.

The heart's memory is the strongest.

I’m laughing so hard this is 1000 times better than the pop version.

Oh, you’ve been cursed?” *YEET*

8th October 2022

Already been a week since I moved abroad alone. The weather has been really nice most of the time, but I have to admit that the rainy moments of the first two days gave some nice mystery vibes to the city (or at least made me enjoy my coffee more!).

Rainy or not, this places always makes me feel like a character of an old tale. The good thing about the sunny weather is that it helps me with my nostalgia.

I spent my morning washing my clothes, showering and progressing a bit with the online course I am taking. The next lessons seem specially useful, so I am looking forward to watching their videos. Still, tomorrow is rest day so I will do a short excursion and hopefully make some friends. These days alone have been great but I'm starting to miss being more social.

Anyways, I think I will pop by a bookstore to get some ideas and the market to buy some fruit. Talk to you tomorrow :)

sad that I couldn't take a photograph for obvious reasons, but there was a parcel at the post office today addressed to "grandpa mice". I absolutely want to know what grandpa mice's deal is

Lunar eclipse | By Johannes van Keulen, 1739.

Ask a historian, “What was mankind’s greatest invention?” Fire? The wheel? The sword? I would argue it’s history itself. History isn’t fact. It’s narrative, one carefully curated and shaped. Under the pen strokes of the right scribe, a villain becomes a hero, a lie becomes the truth.

Okay so what if Danny was the first clone of Superman instead of Connor? I see it going like this:

Danny gets reincarnated and immediately wakes up in a pod. Once his brain catches up to what's going on around him, he quickly nopes out of his pod and takes a little tour around the facility he found himself in. Along the way he discovers some major incriminating evidence but more importantly, he discovers who his donor dad is! Hooray! So Danny takes his freshly alive little butt and that incriminating evidence all the way to his donor dad's house.

Enter Clark, who is very unsure how to feel when a boy shows up at his door, claiming to be his clone and with evidence to boot! On one hand he's glad this clone doesn't appear to hurt or anything but on the other hand, his dna was taken without his permission to make an entirely new person!? He knows none of this is his fault but at the same time, why is this suddenly Clark's responsibility? But the kid just escaped a dangerous facility on his own. But what if the kid was brainwashed to believe he escaped but is really a spy after all? Is Clark supposed to take care of regardless? After all he didn't even want kids! At least not that soon but then again....

Danny takes one hard look at Clark's wishy washy bs and just goes "Yeah no bud, that's not how this works. Neither of us asked to be in this situation but we're in it now so you're just gonna have to deal." Basically, he shames Clark into taking care of him. Especially when the Justice League and the Kents find out and now he can tattle to other adults about how Clark's mistreating him. Danny doesn't ever hesitate to bring up what kind of hypocritical monster Clark and therefore Superman would be if he claimed to stand for truth justice and the American way while also leaving his own clone out in the cold.

And you know what? This actually works. Clark starts taking care of Danny to get everyone off his ass but then comes to find out this kid is actually kind of a riot to be around? And single fatherhood is kinda fun actually?

Basically by the time Kon comes around, Clark has settled nicely into his clone dad era and is willing to strangle anyone who would not only steal his DNA, but also dare to use his precious clone babies for evil gain. Because seriously how dare they?

You’re a evil entity that roamed the world for a quadrillion years as you watch the world grow.

Humans fear you and most get on their knees in fear begging to be spared, others who dare to face you they hold holy water but scream and injury theirselves with whatever’s there(knife like weapons, and others things, surprisingly even bucket and fry pans do??) thus causing people to declare you as the most strongest evil entity alive despite you not doing anything, probably the horns and your black Satan’s sheep buddy that is your night cuddles that follow you around for your clumsy mess.

One day an adult man(around the age of 36, with beard too) is given to you by the town as “sacrifice” to “ease your anger” due to the people thinking the heavy rain was your anger(nobody knows Mother Nature have her period days too?), unbeknown to you the men was holding a glass bottle with what’s suppose to be “holy water” agains his will but it’s almost frozen and so is his hands.

You decide it’s time for a warm cup of chocolate with a welcome for your new resident.
