binah should force my head into her lap when im being an unreasonable ball of anxiety i think. queequag too, i think.

she should. and she would. Binah rests her hands on your shoulders in a firm grip, slowly but surely guiding you to sit down on a couch. then she cups the side of your head and carefully pulls you down further, until your cheek is pressed against her legs. with a quiet hum Binah runs a hand over your hair, fingers drawing idly circles against your skin and tracing your features. she's looking down at you quietly when you shift, dark eyes filled with a faint sparkle and something warm, affectionate. she grasps your trembling hand and drapes her thick cloak over your body, pressing a kiss to your forehead without a word, as no words are needed. the weight and comfort of her presence almost leeches the anxiety from your veins, slowly, and it's replaced by a heavy exhaustion that pulls you deeply asleep, Binah's lap your most comforting pillow

your Patron's lips twitch into a small smile, and she embraces her precious birdie close to her heart

Queequeg's hands are strong yet curiously gentle when she pulls your fingers away from your face, where they were digging into your skin. she stares at you for a moment, silently, then simply picks you up and carries you to her room as if you weighed nothing. to her, with her strength, you really don't. the harpooner flumps onto her bed, setting you down carefully and ushering you to her side, pressing you close. without even thinking you bury your head in her lap, a firm hand patting your head. her body rumbles with a deep, quiet chuckle as she pulls the covers over the pair of you in a mess of limbs and thick quilts and gentle hugs. she gingerly pulls you upwards once the lightning in your nerves gradually dissipates, cradling your head against her chest instead so she can nuzzle her nose into your hair. Queequeg sighs, and it's the most relieved, comfortable sigh you've ever heard

you rest, together, and not once does Queequeg's grip on you falter or turn away

The Memes are set to be legendary.

it's in my head now, ain't going away so here it is

Woody and Angel are passing a quiet morning sorting donations, cleaning and re-boxing clothes and toys. This is the time Mikey and Donnie would usually come around, early morning. Do you think they will come around anymore? Haven't seen them since Leo got back. Yeah, heard from Casey. Mm, yeah it was on the news, there haven't been any Monster Sightings since reports of strange lights at Winter Corp a few weeks ago. Well yeah of course I think that had something to do with them, April worked with Max Winters.

Donnie wanders in. Unusual for him to be alone. Even more unusual for him to be puffy-eyed and listless. Hey buddy, what's going on? You wanna take a look at the pantry? You guys haven't been by to get food in a while (Woody's been so worried)

"Mikey's gone."

Angel's calling Casey while Woody tries to coax the whole story out of Don. He's really frazzled, they've never seen him like this.

"Didn't know where else to come--they've been yelling all night--"

Woody finds out that Mikey's been missing for about a week; why didn't they tell someone sooner? Nevermind, not important--do you know where he might have gone?

We saw him last night. He's with--it's hard to explain.

Angel's yelling. Casey and April are with Splinter and the other turtles. Donnie had said he was stepping out to pick up some food, they hadn't been worried about him before Angel's call. Leo is not thrilled that he went to a bunch of humans (Leo hasn't met them, deep trust issues from his time alone) without consulting the team first.

It's been like this all night, Donnie admits in a small voice. Blaming each other, bringing up stuff from the past..

April's disapproval of Raph's behavior while Leo was gone. Casey's frustration over April's absence while she was working with Winters. Raph lashing out almost at random, confused and devastated. Who was supposed to be watching him? Shut up shut up it doesn't matter how old he is, don't you get it, we're mutants, people want us dead. We're all each other has and we should've been with him.

But nothing like Leo yelling at Splinter. Yeah, it's done the team so much good that I'm so much stronger. Nothing to make a better team leader like being separated from the team. What were you thinking, why didn't you take better care of them while I was gone, why did you send me away? they needed me here. What's gonna happen to Mikey now, huh? you chose to tear this family apart, and I just don't understand why

We know where he is, Donnie tells Woody. He's with Karai--I think he felt bad for her, after she helped us with Winters.

Karai--who's that? Is he safe with her?

I don't know I don't know I don't know. Organization called the Foot, gang once led by the Shredder, tried to kill us, she's talking about bringing him back, I'm afraid she's grooming him to be a ritualistic sacrifice--

Angel's called in the crew, but they can't meet here. The rest of Donnie's family is headed to April's place. Me and Woody gotta stay here, we'll meet up with you guys tonight to help look for him

And then the Professor arrives. Clocks immediately that Donnie is distressed and Mikey, who would normally be with him, absent.

"It's good to see you my friend! Where is Michelangelo?"

"He's a little lost at the moment, sir."

"I see. Easy to get lost in a city like this. I have a friend who knows the layout very well, perhaps he can help us find him."

Oh I don't know if that's a good idea, we don't want to get too many people involved--

People? Who said anything about people?

He pulls out some freaking. bird seed and does a pigeon call. Pigeon lands in from of him.

"Hello, Pete. How are you?"

"Great, just stole a fantastic hot dog. Any theories today, Professor?"

"A problem, instead, that I was hoping for your help with. Have you seen this turtle?"

Cocks his little pigeon head at Donnie. Ruffles his wings thoughtfully. "He got brothers? I think I've seen turtles around, but not this one and not too often. They mostly stick to the shadows."

"A brother is missing, the one in orange. Can you help us find him?"

"Course I will, I owe you more than a few favors. I'll tell the whole crew; mutants gotta stick together, you know."

Winks at Donnie, flies away, yes that's right Pigeon Pete is bringing in the Mutanimals to help save Mikey from--

wait.

Did you say Mikey left on purpose to join the Foot?

(btw Angel has firsthand experience being a kid frustrated with a system that isn't built for her wellbeing, feeling out of place at home, looking for a group to belong to, falling in with the wrong crowd)

Zoro Stage Actor - Painting Study

[ace-and-ranty]

This is coming from a show-only fan, but. Gotta say. I was having conniptions of delight over Siuan and Moraine in this episode. It is the BEST angst I have been served in forever. It is SO good. Don't know if this is "character murder" of Book!Siuan, but I for one find this characterization extremely compelling?

Because? She's doing exactly the same thing Moiraine is doing? Sacrificing everything she loves; and everyone she loves; for what she thinks is the only thing that matters, saving the world.

The only thing is that they disagree on how that must be done. Perfectly symmetrical opposites. Their lives and hearts ground to dust beneath the wheel.

The fucking. The fucking flashback flashes. When they were torn apart. I am dead? I have died. I have been murdered, and it felt so good.

5 AM blogging: another female character we know little about who lives rent-free in my head is ... well, there's even less of an excuse, since she comes from a canon full of distinctive female characters.

But I've been weirdly obsessed with Lady Anne Darcy née Fitzwilliam from Pride and Prejudice for years. My first P&P fic was about her and she haunts several of my other ones in different iterations. There are even more fanciful versions of her in my head that I simply refuse to write. Someone once commented that I clearly dislike her because some of the depictions are unfavorable and it was like ... oh no, these are just some of the many ways she rotates in my head.

I mean ... do I subscribe to the idealized maternal figure version of Lady Anne that P&P fandom has often gone for? No—she was basically a good person, but I think the implication is clear that she was the more flawed and less personable of Darcy's parents.

Do I think she was opposed to her sister in perspective generally or in particular about their children's future marriage? No, I don't think there's any reason to assume so. I imagine her as smarter and kinder than Lady Catherine (Wickham is the first person to mention Lady Anne and doesn't seem to have any particular grudge against her), but by no means opposed in character or opinions. Yet she remains extremely blorbo-shaped in my mind.

There are other scraps, like ... Lady Catherine's chilly remark about daughters not being of much consequence to their fathers. What exactly was the dynamic between the late earl and Lady Anne and Lady Catherine? :\

And both sisters married into quite similar sort of families (not peers but influential old money grand landowners), which inclines me to think the Fitzwilliams were after something there rather than that they were grand romances. Lady Catherine seized control of her life and everyone else's in her vicinity. What did Lady Anne do? Who knows?

These are scraps from a very few offhand statements. Lady Anne is barely mentioned in P&P and we can only piece together a few scarce hints some time after her death (we have no idea how much time) while nearly everyone who knew her and the late Mr Darcy praises her personable, benevolent, kindly husband to the skies. And what little we know suggests IMO that she was ... a messy figure, let's say.

But honestly, I find him annoying and Lady Anne immensely lovable. I don't know!

Please don’t compare yourself to my blog because I only mostly show the highlights. And just because I reblog something about studying languages doesn’t mean I’ve actually done much that day!

There’s nothing wrong with taking it slow and enjoying the language! We’re all here to learn because we want to. There’s no pressure to learn quickly. Learning a language is a lifelong journey, and there’s no rush to fluency. Whatever amount you’re doing, it’s okay and you’re welcome on this blog :-)
