[the-most-humble-blog]

🔥 AM I MISSING SOMETHING? OR SHOULD ZELENSKY JUST SHUT UP AND SAY “THANK YOU”?

📌 At what point do we stop letting ungrateful guests piss on the furniture?

I’m really trying to understand something here.

How the fuck does Volodymyr Zelensky still have anything to say other than “thank you” after the ungodly amount of money, weapons, and global support the U.S. has thrown at Ukraine?

At this point, Ukraine is the most expensive foreign charity project in modern history.

✔ Billions in military aid? ✅ ✔ Cutting-edge weapons and tanks? ✅ ✔ Unwavering U.S. political support for THREE YEARS? ✅ ✔ Massive sanctions against Russia (that hurt us more than them)? ✅

And yet, after a mild scolding from Trump about not being grateful enough, Zelensky is still out here acting like he’s owed something.

Am I missing something?

Or should this motherfucker just say “thank you” and keep it moving?

📌 WHEN DID THE U.S. OWE UKRAINE A DAMN THING?

I get it—Russia invaded. War sucks. But let’s be real: this is not America’s war.

And yet, for three years, we’ve been treating it like our goddamn problem.

📊 U.S. AID TO UKRAINE: ✔ Over $113 BILLION in U.S. taxpayer money sent to Ukraine (Congressional Budget Office, 2024). ✔ More than we spent in the first FIVE years of the war in Afghanistan. ✔ More than the entire annual defense budget of most countries on Earth. ✔ A war with NO END in sight, but endless demands for more.

At what point does enough become enough?

Because from where I’m sitting, this isn’t an alliance anymore—it’s extortion.

And Zelensky STILL has the audacity to act like WE owe HIM?

🚨 We don’t owe Ukraine a damn thing. 🚨

And the second we decide we’ve had enough, that’s Zelensky’s problem—not ours.

📌 “HAVE YOU SAID THANK YOU ONCE?” – TRUMP & VANCE WERE RIGHT.

The moment that should’ve ended this conversation?

🔥 “Have you said thank you once?” – JD Vance to Zelensky

That was THE question. That was THE reality check.

And you know what? Zelensky didn’t have a good answer.

Because he’s so used to demanding help that the idea of actual gratitude never even crossed his mind.

He acted entitled. He argued. He whined.

And that’s why he got kicked out of the Oval Office.

👉 You don’t get to act like a boss when you’re a beggar. 👉 You don’t get to dictate terms when your entire country is being held up by foreign money. 👉 And you sure as hell don’t get to lecture the U.S. after everything we’ve done for you.

Trump and Vance didn’t say anything wrong—they just said what no one else has had the balls to say.

And the fact that Zelensky was “shocked” by being called out tells you everything you need to know.

📌 “BUT HE DID SAY THANK YOU 33 TIMES!” – NICE TRY.

After the meeting, Zelensky’s PR team scrambled to do damage control.

They even compiled a list of 33 times he’s “thanked” the U.S. in speeches and social media posts.

💀 Thirty-three times? 💀 In THREE YEARS?

Bro, I’ve thanked my DoorDash driver more times than that this month.

You don’t get 33 scripted, robotic thank-you tweets and then act entitled in person.

The entire Western media machine is now in full damage control mode, trying to gaslight the public into thinking Zelensky is some humble, grateful leader instead of the professional international welfare recipient that he’s become.

📌 WHY THE HELL IS EUROPE SUDDENLY “CONCERNED”?

Now, let’s talk about these "concerned" European leaders rushing to defend Zelensky.

✔ UK Prime Minister Starmer? Panicking. ✔ EU leadership? Suddenly feeling "abandoned." ✔ NATO officials? Desperately trying to hold things together.

Why?

Because they know damn well that if the U.S. stops carrying Ukraine, the entire European defense strategy collapses.

And they don’t want to foot the bill.

They want America to keep bleeding money and resources so they can pretend to be tough on Russia without actually spending their own cash.

And Trump just made it clear that the gravy train might stop.

That’s why they’re panicking.

That’s why they’re circling the wagons around Zelensky.

Because if America stops paying for this war, Europe will have to either step up or let Ukraine fall.

📌 FINAL THOUGHT: ZELENSKY NEEDS TO SHUT UP & SAY “THANK YOU.”

At this point, there is nothing left for Zelensky to say.

✔ No more demands. ✔ No more acting like an ungrateful brat. ✔ No more assuming the U.S. is just going to fund this war indefinitely.

Because if America decides it’s done, Ukraine is on its own.

So before he says anything else, Zelensky should remember ONE thing:

The only appropriate response at this point is: “Thank you.”

That’s it.

🚨 No more begging. No more entitlement. Just say “thank you” and move the fuck on. 🚨

my sweet pure lamb baby judith who has been doubling her effort in spreading love but no one wants it!!!!! 😭😭😭😭😭

[chaifootsteps]

Why do Viv think the right way of making people like her Bird oc is to spam him everywhere and put the blame on those who won't adore him for existing?

Spamming something IS a way of burning out something and make it hated, that is abc here on internet, there is a reason on why trends that go everywhere die quickly.

The more she tries to put him in peoples faces, the more they are going to hate him, is basic logic, but it seems she dont get it and refuses to believe is the writting/oversaturation of topic is in the fault?

No one should be expected to automatically love him for existing, all of that is in how characters are presented...and if you portray him as a whiney, ungratefull, screamy baby who demands stuff his way and puts blame on everyone but himself, while continuing making the same mistakes over and over and still hasn't learned a thing just...You reaaaaally shouldn't expect that character to become everyones favorite.

her being annoyed at that person for not 'being able to empathize with the character' really speaks on how this is really a self insert, otherwise I can't see why she is so aggresive on others having negative feelings towards the whiny virus that took this show over...

She's locked into a vicious cycle. The more she tries to force everyone to love him, the more they'll hate him, and the more they hate him, the more she'll double down and throw tantrums. It's a pit of her own making and after the way she treated that person, one she deserves.

IDEAS FOR FICS PART 1 [FIDDLESTAN]

-> #Free ideas to use (to find more similar things for fics)

Fiddlestan idea, where Stanley and Fiddleford work together to fix the and bring Stanford back.

During this time they come closer to each other and while feeling like mess they both help each other fix some things.

They both are basically a walking mess with Trauma.

Stanley helps Fiddleford during his panic attacks and calms him down when needed. Stan gives him attention and always listenes about his problems (the divorce and difficul situation with his son. Stanley also helps Fids with quiting his addiction (the memorygun).

Fiddleford made Stan aware that he isn't a worse copy of Stanford. He tells him that he is loved and once Stan opens up to him. Fidds explains how fucked up Stan's whole situation was. Moreover he shows affection to such a touch-starved person that Stanley was at that moment.

Stan and Fiddleford get closer to each other during their bonding time, until they fall for each other and form a relationship.

[They smoke together, go out and Fidds even started teaching Stan playing banjo (with difficulties but still)]

For years they try to open the portal once again, but without the other journals this seems almost impossible. [Just a reminder that the whole portal thing was Bill's idea and he gave Stanford the project. In conclution very HARD TO DO]

And then years later Dipper and Mabel show up..!

Fiddleford and Stanley are in relationship for 30 years. They basically are the "old married couple" But historians will say that they are just 'roommates'.

Mabel basically can smell the romance from distance, while Dipper is ignorant/unaware until someone pointed out this to him.

Stanley & Fidds even have matching earings!

[Also Fidds likes to call Stan Darlin', Hun and Stan calls Fidds Cowboy eventually That's My Cowboy! When noone is around]

Fidds never went crazy or anything. He even repaired his relationship with son! Yes, he might have still got some brain damage from using the gun in the past. (So from time to time he can be forgetfull) But he is better now!

When Stanford comes back there is also a lot of mess. Ford punches Stan and Fidds is right behind him to help him. Stanford is mostly confused by everything that at first he doesn't even notice that Fiddleford and Stanley are in a relationship.(He's just as blind as Dipper)

There is some arguing and Fiddleford is pretty much pissed at Ford for being ungratefull.

Once he overheard Stanford "talk" to Stan that "at the end of this summer you give me back my identyti, my house and this all mystery shack is over"

And he confronted Ford immediately yelling at him that "the world doesn't go around him" And he had no idea how much sacrificed for him and how both of them suffered. (After that 'conversation' I think that Ford finally sensed that something was going on between Fidd and Stanley]

Shortly after Fidd "talked" with Ford, he immiediately went to Stanley, assuring him that everything is gonna be alright and they are both in this together. That he is NOT alone.

[I feel like everyone saw at least once that time of fiddlestan au in art or something BUT-]

LET'S FINALLY GET TO THE MAIN POINT!!!

In this au everything goes similar to the canon, so Weirdmagedon still happened. Everything happened in a similar way and in the end Stanley saved the town. (Pls no jokes)

Ford had to erase his memories, with the memory gun. The weapon that Fiddleford once created and almost ruined his life. And now it erased the mind of the man he loved.

Fidds after realised what happened he was devastated.

He was furious at Ford's action, even though it was the only way to save everyone.

He was heartbroken seeing the man he loves not recognising him. As if there was noone on the other side.

The guilt was eating him alive, knowing well that HE created the gun that took away his love of life.

And after learning that it was Stanley's plan to use the memory gun on himself and not Ford's.. Fiddleford was basically tearing up.

Seeing Stan's lack of reaction after waking up and seeing his 'loved ones' and not recognising them was heart-breaking. Stanley didn't seem to remember neither his nephews nor brother or even him.

When Stan looks at him. There is nothing.

It hurts to look at the man you love. You can't help, but see that he doesn't see you the same way or even recognise you. That there is nothing beside the lost gaze and lack of connection. No smiles, no love. Just confusion.

And even though the Stanley he once know was 'erased', Fiddleford takes a deep breath and with clear sadness in voice says:

"He was there for me when my mind was falling apart and now I'm gonna take care of him." And then hugs gently confused Stan.

I belive that it would take more time for them to bring Stan's memories back. (But that's up to you how you want it)

I imagine that there would be a lot more trouble with gaining back memory for Stan. Like maybe very slowly.

Their first attempts would be unsuccessfully. No improvement. Staley doesn't remmeber anything about his live. Fotos are blank for him. He even misstooks his photo with children, thinking that on the picture is Ford and not him.

"I'm sorry, I- I really don't remmeber any of this.." Stanley said, while holding the photo album.

Everyone would be devastated. Soos, Ford, twins and Fiddleford.

But suprisingly, Fiddleford would be the one who would 'seem' to be the calmest of all of them at least on the surface. He spends a lot of time with Stanley, not necessary trying to restor Stan's memory, but geniuently spend some pleasant time together.

But deeply inside Fidds is actually really strugling. Just instead of thinking about the pain, he tries to focus on helping Stanley. He had a first hand experience with memory issues and he doesn't want Stan to suffer the same.

He also tries make Stanley feel as comfortable as possible in the New situation, while trying to bond.

They drink coffee, they watch tv, they talk. Maybe not necessary about his past.. (Stanley feels pressured, every time someone tries to recall his memories without any results) So with Fidds, he feels more relaxed.

Stanley generally feels around Fiddleford most comfortable. (He doesn't feel any obligation) And he genuelly likes him and EVEN MORE he starts to like him to the point that he's questioning himself.

Stanley: I think, I might have a crush on Fidds..?

Mabel geniuently touched that even after loosing memories the true love still remained around around them, but also jealous due to the fact that he still doesn't recall her : ...

Mabel: He's literally your husband.

Stanley: He is?? I mean- But I don't even know him..?

[Sometimes someone needs to remind Stanley that he's married to Fidds. He forgets it often, since it sounds so unrealistic for him]

Also, when Stan starts 'crushing' on Fidds, Fiddleford is very aware of it.

He immiediately catches up on simple signals like

- Random nervousness

- Playing with hands

- Unnecesarry jokes at wrong time

Just the same behaviour as from 30 years ago, when Stanley started catching feelings for him. [It makes him happy to see this once again]

Fiddleford pretends that he doesn't know. He doesn't want Stan to freak out or something.

And it goes like this..

They spend some time. Twins still try to regain Stan's memory in any way possible. Ford feels helpless. And during this time they are rebuiling the mystery shack.. (because they need a place to sleep, am I right?)

Until one day..

Fiddleford was sitting outside, taking a break from repairing the shack. All of this still seamed unrealistic for him.

He was alone.

He needed to be alone.

He felt as everything was falling apart with him all together.. He just needed some time alone. If he was about to have a breakdown, he didn't want to anyone see it.

Not Ford, not kids and especially not Stanley.

He just needed to f̸̯̞̤̻̬̯̣͙͉̿̑̾͌ͅo̶̧̅r̵̫̹̟̱̖̺̝̐̾͌̄͋̈́͜͠ḡ̴̹̰̘̫͍͇̜͜ę̵̞̯̗̺̗͙̈́͑̀̓̓̆͠t̸̡̛̞̭̪͖̬̱̮͋́̋͝ chill a little-

Then as the man sighed, he saw in the corner of his eye his lying banjo. He hadn't played in a while.. It was his firt though.

So without overthinking, the man took his instrument and started playing some random nutes. After all music always calmed him down a little.

Before he could even notice, nutes turned into melody, into songs he once used to play often during this summer and not only..

It was like this until a familiar face arrived.

"Huh, I like this melody." Stanley said with a small smile, looking directly at his instrument.

Fiddleford looked at his partner, slightly confused and shocked by his arrival. Something made him stop playing, as he realised that what he was playing they both used to love.

They used to play it regulary.

So there was no suprise, that Fiddleford hoped that maybe just maybe would be some kind of recognision. Unfortunately as soon as he met Stan's clueless eyes, he knew the answer.

"Really?" But instead of shoving his dissapointment, Fidds just asked him kindly.

"It's nice." He said as he sat next to the man with a banjo. "Keep going." Stanley encouraged him and how was he supposed to say no?

So he played. Just to see more smile on his face. Just to act as if this was normal. As they used to do.

After a while he noticed, how the other man started staring at his instrument. Fidds saw the curiousity in his eyes, and how paid attention to his movement.

Then he paused to Stans shock.

"Wanna try?" He offered with a gentel smile.

"Try?" Stan sounded suprised. "Nah, I'm gonna break this little thing." He said unsurely. "These hands are pretty clumsy recently." He joked.

"Break it? Such nonsense." Fidd chuckled with a smile and placed the banjo in Stanleys hands. "The least could happen is for one of the string to break. Don't worry."

Despite his first protest in the end Stan looked at the instrument and took it in his hands gently.

Then the man ran his hand over the instrument and all the strings rang.

"Nice." He commented. "How do you start?" Stanley asked and it took Ford a second to realise what he was asking for.

"You start with this one." He answered shortly, pointing at one of the strings. "You know.. you won't be able to play the same song at first try, it takes-"

Fiddleford was interrupted, as Stan started playing. To his suprise it wasn't any kind of weird noises by pulling random strings. No, nothing like that.

It didn't even seem as his first try, when they were young and Fiddleford started teaching Stan playing on banjo.

It was the same melody he played just a second ago.

And it wasn't just a mare try.

He did it perfectly. Just as if he knew this song.

As if he knew how to play it.

As if he remembered it.

And it didn't seem as if he was putting in this any kind of effort.

Stanley just played.

And he seemed so happy and relaxed, until he finished and the realisation hit him hard.

"How.. how did you do this?" Fidds asked first.

"I.." Stan started just as confused as he was. "I don't know." He admited trufully. "My hands were just moving on its own." He tried to explain, but seemed just as lost as him. "I didn't- I didn't think what I was doing. It just happened." He finished, looking directly at Fiddleford very confused, as if looking for the answer.

Fidds confused as him, tried not to give himself unrealistic hopes.

When it came to Amnesia it rarely affected motor skills, according to the researches. Just like walking or ridding a bike. So that would explain this 'phenomen'.

He did it instinctively.

"I teached you this one." In the end Fidds decided to be trufully. "We played it lots of times, until you didn't need the sheet music."

"Oh." Stanley said clearly dissapointment.

For a moment Fiddleford was afraid, that mentioning the past would made Stan uncomfortable, or make silent.

But fortunatelly Stanley fast showed that it didn't bothered him this time.

"Was I a good student?" Stan asked instead with a smirk. "Seems pretty easy for me." Then he added with cockyness, which made Fidds only chuckle.

"The worst one." He couldn't help himself, but taste his patience a little.

"Watch it Cowboy." The man said with smirk, so full of himself as he played a few random, but melodic notes on banjo.

And just then-

"Wait- What did you just call me?" Fiddleford asked rapidly, hoping that he didn't overheard wrong.

Stan looked at him again, taking a pause, as if trying to recall what he said.

"A Cowboy." He said slowly, realising he didn't know why he choosed this kind of words.

"Stanley, I've never mentioned that I am a Cowboy, nor that I'm a fan of them.." Fidds said immiediately and once he saw the expression on his partner's face , he knew. "Stanley." He said so hopefully and full of love. "You.."

He wanted to say You remember

He wanted to reach him..

"I-" The man in fornt of him sounded so confused, but also so hopefull at the same time.

But then rapidly grabbed his head, with a hiss.

"I- think I'm gonna have a headache-" He added painfully.

At once Fiddleford moved to him, taking him gently by his back.

"Shh.. Take it slowly, dear." Fidds said gently to calm him down.

Even though inside he bursting with excitement Stan's healt was his piority number one.

And then Stanley started regaining his memories back!!!! :D

This idea is free to use. If you want you can write a fic about it or just do anything.

Hopefully you enjoyed this idea!!!

[chaoskiro]

Okay, but the comments on this one has also made me think a lot, because they are by far the comments I've ever seen that consistently has complimented something specific about the podfic, and it kinda made me realise something. Because The Dead End Call has THE MOST obvious editing I've ever made, sure I have sound effects I use in Vertical Limit, but most people probably don't realise that each of those are at least five layers deep of different audio manipulations I have done to get the sound right. It probably just seems like some ghost effect. But The Dead End Call contains that jigsaw of words which I have also distorted and while I honestly think it was in all aspects easier (but more time consuming) to make than when I had to figure out how I wanted Phantom to sound in Vertical limit, it is also just way more obvious that I put a lot of work into it.

And that made me think about all the other non-obvious work podficcers do. Because like even a fairly straight forward podfic with no special effects like The Way my Heart Bleeds involve a lot of editing. To remove noise, to finetune the timing, to cut out flubs, and so on and so forth. But. All that editing is essentially there to make all the struggles of podficcing invisible. You will not hear when I paused the recording for the third time because sirens passed by close enough to get picked up by the microphone (again....), you will not hear me desperately trying to capture a character's voice only getting it right on the fifth take, you will not hear all the weird sounds a throat makes which get picked up by a microphone and has to get edited out (thankfully there's plug-ins for that, but no perfect ones), you will not get the 5 second long pause when I spaced out for a moment, and that's how I like it.

I guess it's just that over this past year and change I've podficced, I have grown a lot as a podficcer, and that is both as a narrator, an editor and someone who does special effects, and it feels kinda weird to have the one that I'm personally least proud of get so much praise. I am in no way complaining, the comments on TDEC have given me so many smiles these past days, and I'm so glad people are enjoying it. It has also just made it really apparent to me how much of a podficcer's work is invisible and how many people don't realise all the time and effort being put into the many amazing podfics out there.

I guess just, next time you listen to a podfic you like. Leave a comment even if you don't know what to say leave an extra heart. It means the world to have our work recognized.

WTF? I was reading on ao3 and decided to just see my stats quickly and The Dead End Call is already my 2. most kudoed work. It has literally been less than 48 hours HOW.

[ineffablelara]

Loki's dysfunctional family

"I don’t want to hear your riddles and your vague excuses for him, I want the truth. Answer me!"

This is from wml, I consider the book to be its own canon but still, I think this sums up Loki's relationship with Frigga very well, he loves her and she loves him but her priority is always defending Odin, even if she has to lie to Loki to achieve that, she also created this persona where she is the wise, all-knowing queen who always knows better than everyone else, I love how it's the one thing that all the movies that feature her got right, she's probably the most consistent character from all the Thor movies bc she always behaves and speaks in the same way: "You're a little foolish child but I love you and I also know better than you'll ever know so just listen to me for I am you mother and I'm wiser than you"

Like, even in a deleted scene from the first Thor she displays this slightly narcissistic behavior (I didn't want to use the word narcissistic bc that migt be a bit extreme but rn I can't think of another word, please don't think I'm calling her a monster or something, I just think she displays a little arrogance in ways that can be considered funny, playful or harmless sometimes)

"Thor, just remember, you have something even the great Allfather never had" "What is that?" "Me for a mother, now don't keep you father waiting"

"Always so perceptive about everyone but yourself"

"You're no idiot, you're here aren't you? Seeking counsel from the wisest person in Asgard"

This is just from the movies, in the official tdw novelization she has a conversation with Jane that happens after the "don't let him hear you say that" scene that goes:

“I can’t remember the last time Thor brought a friend home to meet us,” Frigga said to Jane. “When a young man brings a young woman home to meet his parents…” Frigga began, implying a possible marriage between Thor and Jane. “Technically, I think we have only known each other for three days,” Jane said, surprised to be having this conversation so soon. “And if it were three million, would that change how you feel?”

This last one always makes laugh bc... girl I really don't know if my feelings for a man I met three days ago would remain the same after three million years, was that really supposed to sound wise and reasonable? lmao okayy

And the "Always so perceptive about everyone but yourself" one kinda makes me uncomfortable bc it sounds patronizing, this might just be my own traumas speaking but telling someone that they don't know how they feel but you do always strikes a nerve , it makes me so angry bc who are you to tell me that I'm wrong about my own feelings?

And also, is Loki really not perceptive about himself? Really? Is she going going full Thor with the "imagined slights" thing?

This is what bothers me the most about Loki's family dynamic, they NEVER take him or his complaints seriously, they always downplay his grievances to make him sound ungratefull or overly dramatic and this is one of the most hurtful things you can do to a person imo, Loki voices a discomfort he has with something about their family and they instantly try to silence him or make him feel bad for complaining, that's why I'm glad he started to stand his ground with her in the prison scene

I think he then understood how alone he truly was, Frigga didn't exactly wanted to hear what he had to say nor did she try to understand him and his motives for doing what he did, she just wanted him to accept that Odin was indeed his father, a great King who did no wrong and they were a perfect family

And this doesn't happen just with Frigga, Thor participates in that too and their behavior almost reads to me as gaslighting sometimes, there's a scene in wml that always stuck with me:

Thor let out a heavy sigh. “I don’t know what it is that I have done,” he said, his voice softer than usual. Loki snorted. “Oh, please.” “I’m trying to apologize.” “And yet you can’t even work out what for, so I don’t think it counts.” Thor stared at him, his hands working in and out of fists at his side. Loki braced himself, ready for Thor to strike something, possibly him, but instead he said, his tone soft with hurt, “You are so determined to despise me, aren’t you?” It would have been better to be struck. Loki flinched as though he had been. “I don’t—” But Thor held up a hand. “Spare me, brother. Whatever you hold against me, whatever I have done to wound you, I hope you know that I am not your enemy. I want to fight by your side, not against you.”

For those of you who haven't read the book here goes some context: (ohh and obviously this contains spoilers so be aware)

Loki and Thor were sent to a diplomatic mission in Alfheim and things got out of hand, Loki then came up with a scheme to turn things to their favor wich Thor promptly agreed, things obviously didn't turn well for them and they got caught, they were sent to Odin who demanded an explanation for their behavior, Thor then tossed all the blame on Loki, saying that it was all his idea and he had no choice but going along with it, Odin then scolded Thor and let him go and proceeded to HUMILATE Loki for his behavior and even insinuated that his son had a dark and evil nature and there was no point in trying to change that bc people can't change their hearts and who they really are deep down, Loki was really hurt after Odin's harsh words and Thor went to "apologize" to him, Loki was furious and said they could have at least shared the blame, but Thor said that he couldn't risk angering their father, Thor then says the first line of the dialogue I put here and well, I'm assuming you read the rest.

Like, I can't believe Thor's audacity in that book, he threw his own brother under the bus bc he was scared of angering Odin and then left Loki there, completely alone to face their terrifying father (they're both scared of him in the book, it's very clear), then he goes to his rooms with a half assed apology and expects Loki to just forgive him and his cowardice as if nothing happened and goes even further by saying that Loki just keeps trying to find reasons to despise him???

The worst part is: It works, Loki wishes that Thor had just striked him bc his words hurt more than a punch, nevermind that he was the one who just got betrayed, Thor finds a way to paint him as the bad guy and Loki buys it, istg they're so toxic, it's painful to read but at the same time I feel it's so accurate

Also, I'm not hating on Thor for behaving like that btw, yes it was fucked up and he was a coward but that's only a symptom of Odin's bad parentage, his influence destroyed any chance Loki and Thor had of being normal, loving siblings, they were so terrified of him that they were willing to do anything to stay on his good graces, even if that meant betraying each other

Ans my point is, Loki's family is used to turn his words and actions against him, even if they're not aware of what they're doing, they manipulate him to invalidate his feelings and that only alienates him further from them, he gets more and more alone bc no one ever tries to show him genuine understanding and compassion, they only ever have accusing words for him and make him feel like he's a monster for criticizing them and their crappy behavior, he knows that he can't count on the two people he loves the most (Thor and Frigga) to share his pain and suffering so what does he do? He drowns in his own sorrow and heartbreak and lets those negative feelings fester inside him bc he has no one willing to listen to him, willing to be a friend

That's part of his tragedy, stuck in a toxic family that makes him feel awful for daring to complain about their behavior and spending his whole life without ever making a real friend (I mean, OG Loki at least), always isolated, always misunderstood, vilanized by the very people who claimed to love him, and I mean, if his own family thought he was a monster how could he allow himself to show vulnerability to others? They would hate him even more right?

And just like that Loki stayed stuck in his toxic family for nearly his whole life, bc he was unable to let himself be seen by others, the irony I think, is if he left them he would see how fucked up they were and would surely break free from their toxicity but his fear of being misunderstood kept him chained with them forever basically, and the longer he stayed the worse his self esteem got, and the worse his self esteem got the longer he stayed.

Thanks for reading all this, I don't think I ever yapped that much about Loki but I really could spend a whole day talking about his dysfunctional family lol

anyways here the snippet

The echoes of her grandmother's songs still lingered within the forest, powerfull old and fading .

She had left in early spring, her children in Minas-Tirith happy and thriving, the flowers had finally opened to show their full beauty and might. She gazed at them one last time , a single tear on her face and a hand on her stomach where her womb lied and started her long journey, her last journey. She wished she had spent another day, another night, any kind of added time with her daughters and sons, but they had refused, she had tarried long enough . It wasnt cruel and heartless thought it seemed to be to anyone else, how could the ungratefull heirs banish away  the widowed queen out of her home ? the Undomiel herself ?! The answer was simple, those walls were never truly her home, her home was laid to rest years ago. Her time had come, they knew, she knew it too. The longer she remained with them , the harder it would be for her . She wished she could be angry at them, but she had seen the pain in their eyes as they kissed her goodbye, they had raised them wise and kind , estel and her, and by their wisdom they kindly sent her away . They knew their mother too well .

.. I don't like riko but I like your... "

You can like my art and treat it separate from the character or even fandom my work does not need to have context

I'm sorry if this sounds ungratefull but it's really not that deep. + I draw for myself everyone else is just along for the ride do you really think I would spend all this time drawing this babygirl if I did this for social media approval

Liking my art does not mean supporting people who commit crimes irl

Liking a character in the book also does not equal to support of people who behave like the character does irl

.. I don't like riko but I like your AU's/works/version of him"

My reading of riko is based on him being exploited victim groomed his whole life and this is what riko is in context of canon book as well but it's uncomfortable for some to think of since it's easier to just see him as one dimensional villian

Just because I draw him looking pretty or in a way that touches viewer does not change it and it just shows that some people's morale are based on someone looking sexy or not

It's okay to not like the character and what they present but you can do this without pretending like what I do with him is somehow better or that much different

If you feel offended or annoyed by this post feel free to block and unfollow stay true to your feelings I expect the following number to get down after this thank you very much

This is just to people who always feel the need to give excuses as to why they like my stuff when talking to me

Its okay calm down

The Heretic themselves. Who got biten and killed by the poison of a Rattlesnake. Who now uses it as an excuse to betray BOTH of their Gods! The same Gods who did their best to comfort you in your time of need.

Do you really think our Savior and Lordship will let you stay uncontested? The Spectre made YOU PERFECT, perfection is everyform, yet you throw it away for heathens and the same SNAKE that bit you?

Ungratefull rat! UNGRATEFULL RAT! The Spectre gave you nothing but their warrmest welcomes. And you STAB THEM IN THE BACK like this?

What makes you believe you have the right to do such sin against your SAVIOR?

Ahh! Im so excited for Alice in the next chapter. Cause yeah she failed when Liz needed her as a child but like her situation must've been horrible, already being shunned by her mother and treated like an ungratefull daughter by everyone else in the town and having to work herself to the bone for her family and dealing with Marty's death-I imagine they had to stay with Barbara cause they had no other place to go or just couldn't get help from people like the women shelters or Alice's few friends

And she's right, Marty can blame her for living with Barbara but she was acting on what she thought was right as mother to keep her away from harm but Liz never made attempts to trust her mother again by shutting her out and she still insisted in living with that anger and hate instead of seeking help or other non destructive means to ease the pain so yeah Liz is also somewhat responsible for the way she is too and is unfair of pinning all of the blame on her. That's not to say they dont eachother-Liz was heartbroken when Alice died of cancer so im curious whats gonna happen next.

Loving your amazing work as always

The next chapter is going to be a big one, hence the wait. Sorry. Alice and Liz have a very complex relation that was made even more complicated by the attitudes of the 90's attitude towards mental health.

Warning: The song used has some suggestive themes, not many warnings except that Verbena is in a toxic marriage.

"Black Dahlias usually are seen to signify elegance, beauty and devotion, dark purple or black dahlias are a sign of betrayal."

"Buttercups often symbolize joy, happiness and youthfulness. They are also a sign of ungratefullness."

Learning 'No'

Eddie Gluskin x OC (Bunny)

----------------------------------------------------

----------------------------------------------------

'No', such a simple word yet one so hard to understand for one such as Eddie. How could anyone...especially his Darling wife Bunny ever tell him no? She was his wife, his bride. Ever since she said 'I do' she belonged to him....right?

Yet she fought like a feral animal whenever he overstepped a boundry. She would yell and fight until he gave up and let her have some space...and no amount of cuddles, kisses and gifts would make her happy until she had calmed down.

This was one of those days, yesterday he had fought with her over something trivial in his mind. He had just wanted her to clean the entire basement again after he had scared away an intruder and made a mess! It was a simple request and she should have said yes, like a good wife. Instead she had said no and continued cooking, which started the hours long argument.

After not being able to get his way he had stormed over to his workshop and made a sloppy 'shirt' before tossing it away.

His clothes were sticky with drying blood and grime, things that she should have washed without question! Instead she was being a brat.. talking back and refusing him! Who did she think she was?!

With an angry sigh he stepped out of the workshop and stormed to the kitchen, finding bunny eating the now warm canned soup with a solemn expression.

"...Dinner's ready.... Eat if you want.."

She didnt even look at him as she spoke, simply passing him a bowl and continuing to eat. This only made him angrier....it took everything in him no to discipline her right then and there.

"...Why, why must you act like an ungratefull brat!? Like all those whores out there! I though i married a good girl... Not some.. ungrateful slut!"

He yelled out, slamming the table with his hands as he loomed over her tired body. She mearly flinched and looked up at him, her normally happy face tired and frustrated.

"....I spent all day cleaning....I finished all my chores..Its not my fault the chase got messy... Blame that man for breaking into our home...."

That nearly made him snap, but she cut him off before he could yell at her.

"..I... I nees to rest. My back hurts like hell... You know this... I told you this... Several times today! I'll do it later, tomorrow morning maybe, but i cant do it now.."

She said as she stood up, gently pressing her forehead to his as he processed her words.

".... Just...stop yelling... Please...i hate it when you yell..."

Her quiet voice tugged at the lucid side of him. She was right, she had spent the day cleaning, scrubbing the floor of his workshop until the rag she was using was dripping red.

He wasnt so mad about the lack of cleaning as he was about her telling him 'no', her refusing to do as he commanded. But deep down, all through the madness and delusions he loved her to bits and knew she had a point, a much as the other side of him wanted to 'put her in her place' so to speak.

Maybe he should cut her some slack this time....

With a sigh he gently patted her head, he wanted to yell and scream and demand, but there was no use in it, no use in pushing her to exaughstion when it wasnt even her fault the house was dirty again.

"..Fine! tomorrow then. You should have told me why you couldnt clean, Darling. Ill get you something for your back too, no use in having you in pain."

Bunny smiled weakly, giving a tender kiss to his scabbed face. She was surprised that he had accepted this so quickly, having prepared herself for another argument.. but maybe he was changing.

Maybe love can change actually a person?

Aaaaa im kinda happy with now this turned out. Its not cannon Eddie but shut let me have this. I dont know if its fluff or angst or what but im happy, its been a while since ive written anything :(.

[my-castles-crumbling]

Heyyy cas, glasses anon here,

So I really just want to vent, so......

Me, my younger brother and younger sister are all home from school because of a fever. Since I am the oldest my mother expects me to care for my siblings, but I am also sick and in my oppinion my mother should take care of them, she could easily take a day off of work, but she doesn't. I have made very clear that I am not going to take care of them, seeing that I am very sick myself and just want to sleep. Now my mom is going of on me yelling about how I didnt feed them luch, how the door to the outside was open, first of all, my siblings openend that door, I was in my room and didnt know, second of al, They are also sick and didnt want to eat, I layed down some things in the kitchen and told them to grab them if they were feeling hungry, and I do not understand why my mom is mad at me, I already do a lot is my houshold, I sometimes pick my sister up from school, I bring her to her hobby's when my parents can't, I do the groceries a lot of times, I babysit my brother and sister alot, but it is never enough, but when I point out to my parents that, they, are in fact the parents and not me they call me ungratefull and lazy. They say I am being mean and cruel and that I am just overreacting. But am I??? I don't know, but I am so sick of me taking care of them while at their age I also took care of them and they dont do anything at all.

sorry for the rant, hope you have a nice day

Hi!

I hope you're feeling better!

Ugh, so...no, you shouldn't have to take care of other people while you're sick.

It's hard because as an adult, I of course wonder of maybe your mom HAD to go to work because maybe she would get fired if she didn't or you guys really need the money. But at the same time, it's not your responsibility to care for your siblings while you yourself are sick. I wonder if maybe she could have called a friend to help or switched a shift, you know?

In the very least, if I was a parent in this situation and I had no choice but to ask my oldest to watch the others while sick, I probably would have taken the time to explain to you WHY I needed to go to work, you know? Like if you're old enough to watch the kids, you're old enough to be told why she's making these decisions. Like her approach of calling you ungrateful and stuff isn't fair. You obviously do a lot to help out and if this was an unavoidable situation, the least she could have done was explain, rather than demand. And if it was avoidable? Then yeah, not fair.

Sending you love!

He hated a lot of things about himself.

He specially hated how trust come absurdly hard for him and never naturally. Always a concious choice at first. And even then it was hard to move it into a complete feeling. But he trusted Martin and it had to be worth something.

"I think..."

It was hard to talk about himself. About all the small things that made him who he was, about how he was just completly wrong from the start.

"I think my grandmother caused some actual permanent damage in me as person."

It's ridiculous of course. It sounds ungratefull even now, more so after so many days listening to Martin talk about his mother, having to watch him accept that she never loved him, "she was my mum and she didn't love me", "she was the one person that was suppose to just do" and "i think I'm unlovable", of not knowing what to do and going into rants about how the idea of an inherent love associated to motherhood is not an actual determination as more than all good parents have a child out of love, how is not any personal failing and how even the Eye agress Martin's mother is just a prick and how Jon loves him very much. How Martin is made to be loved. How once day when things are better he will be surrounded by people who love him as well (how he will realize that Jon is not actually good at love or at being a person and leave, "you have to love yourself, Jon, cause people don't stay for people that are different").

Martin was the one with real problems, Martin was the one quite literally abused by his guardian and in comparisson what? Jon's grandmother couldn't always watch him? Or would make him spend the whole day sitting in a chair rewriting the same words again and again until she deemed acceptable? Everyone said his caligraphy was pretty. She was doing her best.

"You think?" Martin teases and it's surprisingly rude but not in a mean way, in way that makes it sound obvious and so so real.

"I... She did try her best."

He remembers the good as well as the bad, how one day in desperated frustration she told him that she "just couldn't understand what is wrong with you" but also how she throwed them out of the house and stopped inviting his uncle and his family over for christmas (or even talking to them) after he suggested that Jon should be institucionalized "or whatever they do with the loony kids now days" instead of "being a burden to you, mum". How she never believed he was really sick and not just lying to skip school (even if he never did) until he was so bad that the teacher would call to send him home pretty much the moment he got there but also how she would make his favorite recipes and actually look at the huge collection of books and read them for him even making the voices. How she would try to make him wear unconfortable clothes and eat horrible foods and say the right words and understand the right things but also how on the day he was leaving from Uni she sitted with him and sayed she was sorry, that she had not realized how hard he was actually trying to be better and that she had never realized he just couldn't and that she was afraid for him, how she told him to always be proud of himself cause the world wasn't fair and he had to be the one person on his team. How they never talked about it again. How she seemed to be humoring him everytime he talked about someone that would actually accept him and stay. How after a group of mean kids throwed actual spiders at him in 5th grade to see his reaction and he had one of the worst panic attacks of his life only to hear the teacher agree with the parents of said kids that he should just "man up" his grandma raised absolute hell and how he got to have a whole fun week outside school, how next year he was in a better (more expensive) school (how some of her mother jewels she wore/kept with the biggest care suddently disapeared). And he sees himself saying all that. Just throwing his memories at Martin unable to stop them from getting away into the world. "She loved me."

He says and it is the crux of the question. Martin's mother never loved him. She hurted him because of misplaced anger and bitterness. And it was hard for Martin to aknowledge the damage because it is a hard reality to accept. Because it shouldn't be a reallity to any kid.

But Jon's grandmma loved him, he knows that, has always known that. She did the best she could with the resources she had. And still she hurted him. Helped turn him in the messed up barely a person shape he is now. And it seems so contraditory. How can you hurt someone you love?

"She did." Martin says. "And she hurted you anyway and it is okay to feel that, to be hurt and sad and even angry over it."

He hugs Martin. Wants to hide in him, be held until nothing else exists anymore.

"I used to not understand it. " He says. "How does one hurt the ones they love?"

Martin hugs him tigther.

"I get it now." After Sasha and Tim and Georgie (twice) and Melanie and Daisy and Basira. After Martin. "I don't think I can do much else nowdays."

"We had a shitty deck." Martin says. "But you saved me and you keep saving me. You make me really happy. And maybe one day we will hurt each other and be something else, we got a monster deck in a real life game" A part of him wants to point Monster is at best a type of Yu-Gi-Oh card and at worst not a real thing. Instead he lets himself cry into Martin's sweater. "but you're still here and I'm still here. And you have not hurted me yet... well... not since you actually started loving me and not thinking I was a murderer."

He wants to thank Martin. He wants to beg Martin to leave while this is still true. He wants to be held forever. He wants to ask Martin to stay. Instead all he says is:

"In my defense you would be a good murderer."

Martin laughts.

Things are good.
