[satoruists]

my girlfriend is the kindest and sweetest soul i know but if i tell her that someone pissed me off… she will definitely start hitting them with hammers

[sadisticmagpie]

So I met up with my best fren

And we had a great time

And she mentioned trying out duolingo

So I also tried it

And now we're competing on who calls quits first, with the loser buying the winner fancy icecream

So yeah

We started passively aggressively competing with eachother on duolingo just for shits and giggles

This is prime friendship

[blitzy-blitzwing]

A thing that people always forget when chastising vivienne for being so apathetic to cole is the fact that she is a circle mage. People whom are forced to learn that you should not trust demons nor spirits or else they’ll put you down AS A RITE OF PASSAGE. Think back to what Mouse says in DAO. “Keep your wits about you, mage; true challenges never end.” She knows that for the rest of her life, demons will tempt her and try to possess her. She has seen mages turn into abominations, knows how they get them- of course she will support templars who have the skills to subdue them. And now to have a spirit scurrying around without supervision what is the last bastion against a Tevinter Sidereal… I too would be worried as hell if i were a circle mage.

EXACTLY!

not only is vivienne a circle mage, but there are also a few other factors that play into it that make cole so untrustworthy to her. vivienne underwent her harrowing when she was young– in fact, she was the youngest mage to have ever gone through a harrowing and survived it. we don't get to learn much about what she went through during her harrowing, but we DO have this banter between her and cole:

harrowings on their own are already traumatic enough, and with the added insistence from the circles that all spirits and demons are dangerous (which we see vivienne repeat above, "all it can do is harm."), it makes complete sense on why vivienne would be so put-off by cole! especially given how kind he is! she thinks that kindness is a ploy, and why wouldn't she if her harrowing was anything like the warden's in DAO?

and then that's not even acknowledging the fact that cole isn't just ANY spirit. he's the ghost of the spire. he's killed mages before and admits to doing so. and even though he was wrong to do so and realizes that what he did was wrong, that does not mean that vivienne automatically has to suddenly be okay with what cole did. of course vivienne takes cole being the ghost of the spire harder than everyone else in the inner circle. she is the only circle mage there. it is entirely plausible that she sees cole as a threat and views herself as being the person most able to recognize that threat because of what she was taught. it's why she struggles so much to empathize with cole on any level.

ive already talked about this briefly on another post, but cole is also fairly antagonistic to vivienne as well. it's easy to look at their dynamic and think that, well, cole is just trying to help vivienne but he... isn't? his version of helping her is prying into her thoughts without permission and continuing to do so even after she has shown clear discomfort with it.

cole drags her worst memories and thoughts out publicly in front of not just vivienne, but the rest of the party and anyone else who may happen to be standing near them. it's DANGEROUS, what he does, because vivienne is a player of the game. her position at court is a precarious one, and to have someone like cole who can just pick into her brain whenever he wants with no repercussions? it's scary! it's scary because vivienne has no defense against it, especially if the player supports cole and downplays the harm he does. and what can vivienne do about it? she's an ally of the inquisitor, and that makes her cole's ally by proxy. telling cole to stop doesn't work, insulting him doesn't work, trying to get the inquisitor to intervine doesn't work– nothing seems to deter cole.

which is why THIS piece of dialogue is so important to me:

despite everything i've said above, vivienne still cannot help but care about cole. no matter how dangerous he is, no matter what she was raised to believe, she still cares about him and worries for him. their dynamic is SO interesting to me and i really wish people dug into it a bit more rather than just dismiss it as vivienne being needlessly cruel to cole. it's so much more than that.

Y'ALL. LOOK WHAT MY FRIEND GOT ME!! AAAAAAHHHHHHHH

I'm gonna be honest with ya'll I did NOT think that she would actually listen to me ramble about LMK AAAHHHHHHH- 😭😭😭💖💖💖

She gave this to me at school before class started in an envelope and vaguely said that there were two pieces of polaroid photos inside. Keep in mind that before she gave this to me, she messaged me first saying that she commissioned a photo of me from three years ago and I mistook it as two copies of the exact same photo because when I opened it, my picture was at the front and the other picture was very much clinging to the back of it and I thought nothing of it because I thought it was the same pic (because again I didn't think that she would actually acknowledge I love LMK 😭) . I found that out later at my house that no, it was not a copy of the exact same pic of the other because when I separated it from the other photo, I froze and screamed because gurl??? What??? I literally thought I was hallucinating 😭😭😭 because I just woke up from a short nap after coming home from school. And then I messaged her and thanked her from the bottom of my heart because this is the nicest thing anyone has ever done to me HSHSHSHHSHSHSHS

I shall forever cherish this U.U.

My sister is watching spop and the other night I watched the episode "Pulse."

You know the one. Where if Catra were any slower than she is, Glimmer would have straight up murdered her. I was giggling like a maniac and flailing a bit. Both my niece and nephew yelled at me to calm down lmao. But I just cannot sit still and quiet watching Glimmer be the fucking badass she is.

And it just strikes me again how much Catra is determined to think as little of Glimmer as possible. She was in real fear there under Glimmer's rampage but it still took Double Trouble remarking they didn't know Glimmer had it in her for Catra to actually consider that yeah, Glimmer did something hardcore.

And Catra right notes that it marks tension among the friends.

Because Adora and especially Bow have been what's kept Glimmer in check to avoid tarnishing her hands for the sake of protecting her people, but they'd been leaving her behind. Proving to her she can only take her own counsel if she doesn't want to be left on a cushioned throne.

So they're not there to tell her she shouldn't murder the person who took her mother from her and has been terrorizing her people for so long.

And for real. Glimmer was aiming to fucking murder in this episode. But Catra is just really effing fast.

And I looooove Glimmer for that Hehehehe
