I wonder how Hawk feels every time he sees Marcus, a man he thought he shared a common goal and set of principles with, end up far happier and fulfilled than he ever was because Marcus had conviction and he didn't.

Marcus was black in a segregated America, from a poor family and an unstable career. The stakes were so high and he came out on top. Hawk on the other hand was unable to live up to his own expectations, failing to maintain his facade while also not being able to shed the facade. He thought he was fucking everyone else over to get ahead but realized that he fucked himself over the MOST.

The church thing wasn't supposed to be too ominous! @_@ It was meant to be a "Hey, online safety heads up! Are you sure about this?" I'm sorry! Didn't mean to freak you out ._.

I'm sure you had the best intentions anon. I don't hold it against you. However, it's also true that there are few things scarier than an anonymous message in your inbox saying, "Hey, I'm pretty sure I know where you live."

Thinking more about my isat au and I'm gonna need to change a LOT more than I thought. First things first, Siffrin's connection to the wish. Since in Of gems and pages, all the wishes stayed the same. So why is Odile the one looping and not Siff? So basically, what I think I'd do in my au is that the Universe decided to change things up a bit.

The first time the Universe granted Siffrin the means to fulfill their wish, things went horribly bad (just look at Loop). So this time, the Universe decided to give this new Siffrin, something a lil different. They still gave Siffrin the timeloop But made Odile his proxy. So that Siffrin may have helpers in this new timeline, with Loop as the guide and Odile helping as well, it Should go better, right??? And since the wish is connected with Siffrin's emotions, the Universe can't just completely make it Odile's problem now, sooo basically... Siffrin can still remember Parts of a previous loop PRIOR to their deaths.

That means during the beginning of canon when Siff was crushed by a boulder, he remembers that. And found Loop as well, but when he accidentally ended up touching a tear, he now Doesn't remember being crushed by a boulder but by being frozen in time. At the same time, he ALSO doesn't remember Anything else prior to it. So he doesn't remember that there's a boulder that can kill him by the entrance of the House, he doesn't remember Loop. All he remembers is that somehow, one way or another, he was frozen in time within the House and needs to be more careful with the tears. And because of the way that the loops affect Siffrin now is faaar too different than how it affected Loop, he can't go forwards or backwards in time. Siff will always awaken back in the meadow and Loop will always have to do their whole speech all over again (which would most likely annoy them immediately cuz why? Why is it so different now? Why can't this Siffrin REMEMBER?)

Odile on the other hand, remembers ALL the loops and finds a lot of discrepancies with Siffrin. It takes awhile for her to meet Loop and they get to talk to each other. Their meeting would be pretty... rocky at first. Loop still getting regarded as a stranger by Odile, Loop finding out that Odile is the one getting affected by the timeloop from their own selfish wish. Even if that Siffrin isn't them, it doesn't change the fact that they both made the same wish. Loop thinkin bout being such a favourite cosmic joke of the Universe that not only were they turned into This, one of their family members are suffering cuz of them. And she doesn't even recognize them. It'd be pretty hard at first too cuz Loop doesn't know that their appearance changed yet, there's no mirror. For Loop, they might still look like Siffrin, right? But Odile's reaction to seeing them says otherwise.

Anyway in this au, stage wise, Odile is the actor, Siffrin is the director, and the Universe is the audience. Book wise, Odile is the character, Siffrin is the writer, and the Universe is the reader. Why is Siffrin the director or the writer and not the Universe? That's because the timeloops are Still connected to his emotions, if something he didn't want to think about happens like, that argument with Bonbon (just as an example. I'm wondering if that'll still happen here considering that only happened because of Siff had memories of all the loops in canon. He doesn't have that in this au anymore), time would loop back still, so in a way, Siff Is writing how the timeloops go.

Typewriter Acquired!

Guess what I now have? A type writer!! I found it at a thrift store and it seems to be working so far. I'm going to be fixing it up but it's pretty neat!

If anyone's got tips or knows what model it is please let me know!

[fearforthestorm]

listened to living thing by anna tivel and ouhhhh.. SUCH a good album. i think my faves are two truths and altogether alone but Real things had me constantly going "oh. oh. ohhh..." the cover art is so beautiful too

YEAHHHH she's so so so good oh my god. anna's got such a breathtaking way of writing songs that feel so real that you have to sit with them for a minute and it's just phenomenal. i would say all of those tracks are favorites of mine too but lbr i love the whole album lol. if you're enjoying living thing i also really highly recommend her previous album, outsiders! i bought a vinyl of it when i saw her last october & even though i'd seen her play black umbrella multiple times by the time i got home and listened to the record it still absolutely knocked the wind out of me. everything she makes is gorgeous and i'll probably be recommending her music to anyone who will listen for the rest of forever lmao. i'm so glad you listened to and liked the album!!!! :D

traveling should be free forever

[swagging-back-to]

stared up at the stars and was thinking of all the stars and solar systems that were so close to eachother. if life formed there they'd probably have no problem traveling to other solar systems. how it must be to live with two stars. how it must be to live with a massive star, so huge we genuinely cant comprehend it.
