Just a little sketch :) She consumes my every waking moment <3
[Image ID: a waist up pen drawing of Francis Farnsworth from dungeons and daddies, drawn on lined journal paper. She is looking off to the side with a slightly shocked and slightly amazed. She is in a 1950s style dress with red lipstick. She is blushing and has mild acne. She has short, curly hair that has been badly straightened in some spots. Besides her, writing reads "transfem Francis be upon ye". End ID]

An aspect of Hilda the series that I feel isn’t talked about enough is the colonizer’s guilt and how it affects the main character.
What made me write this was watching the third episode of the new season, but honestly, it’s something we see throughout the whole series. Starting out with the elves in the northern counties, and moving on to trolls and now giants. Every season that came out gave us a chance to see Hilda deal with the feelings that arise from living in a society she knows is built on the occupation of another people’s native land and the oppression of those inhabitants.
She knows it’s not her fault, she knows she’s not the colonizer, but she’s well aware that she’s in the privileged side of her society. Seeing her grapple with the fact that her very existence in these spaces is only possible because someone else is getting the short end of the stick, to me at least, makes her that much more interesting of a character.
Because it’s not a matter of fixing what she’s done, but the privilege is still there and not even well hidden when she sees the day to day life of the people whose land has been occupied by humans/trolbergians. So whenever we see her rush to aid them, her borderline desperation to fix what’s been broken, it’s even more captivating because it’s not just the usual “I love helping people and having adventures” gist, there’s always this undertone of guilt for something she hasn’t personally done but still knows has to be held accountable for.
Hilda knows the type of oppression that people like her get away with. And she wants no part in it.

jess is dog coded but he has the entire personality of a feral rescued cat that doesnt know how to meow and so hisses and yowls at everything even after its calmed down and domesticated. So what im saying is that he has the narrative functions of being dog coded (specifically a stray dog dog-eat-dog world dog “Just tell her I’m a dog” dog) but like he’s also jumping 10 feet in the air when he gets startled and likes to sit in rory’s lap and pretends he doesn’t care about anything but. actually. he cares a lot about everything. on accident. and when he gets embarrassed he is so mad about it too. do you understand

Bringing Addison back for one single episode and then sending her off again is like giving crack to a crackhead who'd just quit cold turkey last week

Don't you guys think it's fucked up when Fiona starts dating and sleeping out of the house, leaving Debbie, Carl and Liam kind of for themselves?
Once she started dating Mike she would sleep at his place sometimes which I think it's okay, she was paying the bills and would leave dinner ready and communicate Debs and she was still looking out for them, they had health care and she took them to the clinic and all that. She needs to take care of her, live a life, sleep at her boyfriend sometimes, that's fine and healthy. But then she marry Gus and is often out of there, get together with Sean and doesn't even know what's going on with them anymore (aka "why there's nothing to eat in the fridge" "cause no one is doing the shopping" dialogue with Debbie, not knowing when it's their first day at school, letting Sammy move in and run things after her trailer got fucked by Frank), and then she gets her apartment and moves out completely and like, okay, Ian was a EMT, Lip is a mechanic already I think, she did said she wasn't going to support Debbie after her pregnancy (fucked me thinks), Carl's at military school, but Liam is still a kid! And Debs and Carl are still underage! And they are her responsibility.
It just doesn't sit right with me that Liam didn't at least moved with her.
Specifically Fiona defenders, I would love to hear more about it.

Reading GRRM's latest blog post and yes, all of that. I agree with every little thing he said. But not only does the complete removal of Maelor effect events in KL's, but for Daeron's storyline as well. He burns Bitterbridge and does not show mercy despite being begged to because of his young nephew's gruesome end there.
In general I feel that changing B&C so drastically undermined Helaena. And for seemingly no reason at all, in some places - why have her offer a mere necklace, when it is already established that she offered herself up to the assassins instead? Which makes far more sense and shows a more self-sacrificing and motherly intention. (To be clear, I do understand the argument that she was panicking and not thinking clearly and not quite all there doing the events. Her eyes roaming around in pure terror, showing whites like a spooked horse - brilliantly performed. I don't mean to imply that show Helaena does not love her children, though we see so little of her. We are left to imply so much about her character and many others because the little screentime we have is spent on - that's another topic but :))))))) ). But since the book already gave us that she had offered herself?????? Ugh.
Yes, she 'chose' in a way by them making her tell which child is the boy, but it really didn't feel the same as the horrific nature of the choice she made between Jaehaerys and Maelor -- and then having it disregarded anyway. Her choice, that horrific, torturous, agonizing choice, made no difference in the end at all.
She also just. Isn't as despondent post B&C as the book makes her out to be? Which, while yes, it didn't go down as it did in the book, what did occur in show is traumatizing as is? So there's no reason she couldn't then still follow that part. But even that seems...not the case here.
