Thank you, @maniacalmole for tagging me! It’s always nice to know someone wants to know you better. :) Rules: Tag 9 people you want to know better.

Three ships: I’ve recently aquired more favourite ships than I’ve had since I was a wee girl and watched ER. :D So, apart from Aziraphale/Crowley - who are still absolute favourites - it’s even hard to pick. But I I’m super into Buffy the Vampire Slayer at the moment, so I’d be lying if I didn’t name Willow/Tara and Buffy/Spike. Also, I found myself missing The Magicians SyFy lately, and I went and read a coulple of queliot fics. May I break the rules and name Quentin/Eliot here too?

Last song: I recently got to know this Russian poet/musician, Aleksandr Sherbina - saw him at the festival, and he turned out to be really good. So I gotta name him. His most famous song is “The Song about Crazy Masha”, and there are even several musical videos. It’s quite psychodelic, yeah, but also funny and sad and clever. He also has many more recent songs that are better in quality but less famous yet. (Btw, he’s currently touring the US, so, well, maybe I’m here helping the promotion lol.) If you’d like something less obscure, my last but one was “In Boca al Lupo” by Wendy McNeil. <3

Last movie:  The Green Knight. We went to see it just this weekend. Well, it was... really peculiar! Have been talking about it ever since. :D

Currently reading: As I was preparing to see the movie (see above), I also read the legend it was based on (Sir Gawain and the Green Knight). Didn’t finish it in time before watching, so the ending was sort of a surprise, and it was interesting to see how the poem and the film dealt with it differently.  I’m also listening to The Lord of the Rings audiobook now - if it counts - as I found out that I remember it very vaguely, so my friend @improbabledreams900  and I decided to read it and compare notes. I’m very slow though.

Currently watching:  Miracle Workers. As it often happens to me, I’m very late for the party, but I’m enjoying it hugely. Already sorry that it’s so short. Super jealous of the writers who can create such hilarious, dumb and loveable characters. :D <3 Also trying to get through Criminal Minds (S2), because my sister’s obsessed with it, and I’m trying to give it a chance. Not doing well so far. :’D

Currently consuming:  I’ve just returned from my parents who have a kitchen garden, so I now have a small stock of homegrown vegetables, some of which (I believe they are called “squashes” or “zucchini” in English) don’t fit in my fridge and have to stay in the balcony, and I’d better consume them real fast.

Currently craving: Travelling! Especially the UK and Europe. I haven’t been to the UK almost for two years already, and I miss it so much, it’s unbearable. Travelling restrictions have some good sides too: we’ve seen many wonderful places of our country where we wouldn’t go otherwise. But still... Let us out already! I’m tagging @caminholonge @ekalita-blr @sgxcfljd  @l-i-n-u-s-k-a @derblauedieter @aethelflaedladyofmercia @staubengel @improbabledreams900 @ethereal-menace if any of you guys whant to do it.

PEMDAS - Special Year-End Edition - Albums

I love end of year lists because I like consensus, rankings and numbers. But consensus is all based on who gets to rank, and the people who get the most access to major publication rankings are white men, so the numbers are tainted by white supremacy, misogyny, and many other forms of bigotry.

Which makes it even more interesting to see what gets ranked where.

Here’s a Google Sheet I made of all the lists and I created a formula that basically measures how many times an album placed on a list as well as how high it placed on that list. I’m going to keep updating this list as it’s not done, but it’s fun to play around with right now!

According to my formula and the critics, the top 10 albums of 2020 (in order) are: 

#1: Fetch the Bolt Cutters •• Fiona Apple

#2: RTJ4 •• Run the Jewels

#3: folklore •• Taylor Swift

#4: Future Nostalgia •• Dua Lipa

#5: Punisher •• Phoebe Bridgers

#6: Set My Heart on Fire Immediately •• Perfume Genius

#7: Saint Cloud •• Waxahatchee

#8: Heaven to a Tortured Mind •• Yves Tumor

#9: Women in Music Pt. III •• HAIM

#10: Rough and Rowdy Ways •• Bob Dylan

I also have a fun, unranked albums list brewing. I’ll release that at the very end of the year.

THE WICKED + THE DIVINE CHRISTMAS ANNUAL AKA LOVE ACTUALLY ACTUALLY

STOCKINGS

What kind of dedication does it take to spend the time you’re free from drawing a monthly comic book to actually knit a stocking cover? Jamie McKelvie, you are indeed Father Christmas.

I love the way the cover speaks to what this issue is, too – a series of little Christmas gifts from Kieron, Jamie and their Super Friends. Things we maybe hadn’t asked for (mostly) but in retrospect are so glad to have. 

The Christmas Relationship Vignette format also seems a fabulously dark and twisty riff on Noted British Christmas Relationship Vignette Extravaganza Love Actually. Which makes the special a whole other level of stocking gift, because if there is one thing I would not have expected from WicDiv and yet am filled with joy and tra la la to receive it is the WicDiv Love Actually.

And true to that reference, in a sense all of the stories are about characters trying to give some version of the gift of love: pleasure, freedom, connection, safety, empowerment, or even just a lift.

(Am I working too hard to say that the Cam/Umar story, in which Umar gives a non-stop punning Cam a ride, is itself a pun on what is to be found in pretty much every other vignette? God I hope not, because that is Next Level Punning.)

In Richard Curtis’ film almost all those vignettes work out for the best. (I cry every time Colin Firth starts proposing in bad Portuguese, and every time Sam runs through the airport, and every time all the strangers start hugging one another at the end. Also I am crying now.)

Meanwhile the WicDiv version is more like, What if you already knew the ending of Emma Thompson’s story when you started reading this, and also you knew that Alan Rickman was going to die too soon and Andrew Lincoln would be trapped for the rest of his life playing a zombie-fighting sheriff in Atlanta. If you took them on their own without further information, many of the stories would be straight up sweet – Baal and Inanna, Luci and Laura and Cam and Umar in particular. If not for that last panel the Ananke/Tara story on its own would also be pretty beautiful.

(Not only is it this for-some-still-unexplained-reason-masked grandmother figure helping her granddaughter to trust her instincts and be brave, it is capped by her giving the young woman a mask of her own. Seriously, it’s a really sweet story, you guys.)

Also, there’s unbelievably beautiful pages like this one from Chynna Clugston Flores, Ludwig Olimba, Brandon Daniels and Tamra Bonvillain.

But the backstory and soon-to-be stories we know cast such shadows. Cam warning Umar he’s going to be deeply disappointed if he thinks you can trust people; Ananke leading Tara to suicide; Luci having tried to save Hazel from doom giving that same look that we have reading this, seeing her entire terrible future already in that moment of ascent.

Another gorgeous and painful page, this one from Carla Speed McNeil, Fernando Argüello and Bonvillain.  

And the depths of those shadows only grow  when you reread this issue again as the series continues. At this point we still don’t know what it is that Baal’s been doing to stave off the Great Darkness. But we do know that whatever it involves something he looks to that is far away, much as in this shot.

Up on the rooftop reindeer pause, because here comes The Guy Killing Children.

And his comment “Life’s hard. You have to be harder” means something so completely different knowing what makes it all so hard. And so much worse, too.

LOOSE THREADS

While this is an issue of vignettes, Baal and Luci seem almost like the main characters. They each get a strong through line. Baal’s story takes us from real human connection to crazy jealousy to weird awkward rebound and confusion. Meanwhile Luci’s story is a bit of a bittersweet Christmas Carol – she starts at peak selfishness, but then, after Laura offers her that playful moment of connection – the actual significance of which we see in Luci’s face after she thinks she’s been rejected –

-- we get Luci’s tale of generosity, as Luci again seems to act selfishly, but this time as a a means of trying  to protect her friend from this doomed nightmare she’s now trapped in. And it totally fails, which is sort of like if Scrooge changed his ways and helped the Cratchits and Tiny Tim grew up to be a miserable bastard.

Chronologically Luci’s a bit of a twisted tale; the middle vignette actually occurs last. But resorting the elements seems to make things only more brutal; Hazel and Eleanor were these great friends, but Hazel had this obsession; after her own ascension Luci tried to save Hazel from her obsession, before giving in to the selfishness of her “part”. But at the height of that her friend returns, having missed the point entirely and taken on her own terrible doom-laden role.

And now rather than an effervescent moment of sexy Laura’s flirtation is almost like a last meal. Luci’s doom is coming. 

Laura is also a bridge between the two main stories, with a micro-but-not-really arc of her own: she offers herself to Luci entirely in the moment and joyful, ends up with Baal, which should be similarly All Systems Awesome, but then he slowly melts down into that classic multiple partners house of mirrors of insecurity.

God I love this image; Baal facing Laura and yet still looking away captures so much about him.

And with that comes new insight for Laura, the painful depths of which she will not begin to understand yet for quite some time. But artists Emma Vieceli, Dee Cunnifffe and Matt Wilson still nod to it, ending on Laura smoking, the quintessential Persephone-is-in-Hell image.

(This story also has one of the great titles in the history of great WicDiv titles, “Uh-Huh-Huh.”)

Another one of those great WicDiv issues that only grows better the more times I read it. And like every great Christmas song, it only grows sadder as well.
