#x wants the (ph)d

[l-in-the-light]

The most embarrassing series of posts about Lawlu you will ever read: edition post-Punk Hazard (part 4)

This one will definitely live up to it's title. The "love is a hurricane" tale continues~

Luffy again showing interest in what Torao is doing. This is already like third time he shows his unusual interest in him (and it will happen a couple more times in this post as well). He really wants to know more about him. Despite the fact he's usually sleeping through backstories of his own crewmates, like Nami. His unusual interest isn't because he doubts Law, we already know he deeply believes him to be a good person. No, this scene exists purely to show us how big and special interest Luffy has for Law. Luffy is also a bit concerned here, we saw the switch happen in Punk Hazard, from now on Luffy will also worry back for Law.

Someone's trolling Luffy here and it's not Usopp, lol. I wonder if this is how Law was as an older brother to Lammy, telling her fake tales just for amusement. He's a teasing older brother type, isn't he? And now all of that is directed towards Luffy. That's so sweet.

Luffy, you were supposed to tell them before, why are you telling them only now?! Take things a bit more seriously!

Law though is so displeased. Not only a hand was slammed into his arm (he secretly liked it despite everything), he was told to get along (he doesn't want to!), and Luffy disappointed him for not sharing about the alliance before.

But let's stop at the "get along" complaint for a bit. Luffy, you goofhead, you didn't introduce Law to your crew?? (and please, don't you know Luffy, ofc Luffy didn't do it "offscreen", this is Luffy we're talking about! He doesn't do introductions! At all!) Poor Law doesn't know their names! How is he supposed to get along with them?? You think Law would ask them about their names? Definitely not! Can you even imagine Law asking about anyone's name?? (yeah, I can't either lol) So to save up his face, he would have to utilize all that info he gathered beforehand (he already knew who they were all the way back at Sabaody after all!).

So he recognized Robin, Nami, Zoro, Sanji, Chopper (and so is able to call them by their names, tho it's worth noting Sanji being a special case and referred to by his title), but he didn't apparently know about Brook, Franky or Usopp (because they got called Bone-ya, Robo-ya and Nose-ya instead of their names+ya). Brook got recruited in Thriller Bark so there wasn't any wanted poster for him back then in Sabaody, so that's understandable. There was one for Franky already, but before timeskip Franky looked completely different so Law didn't recognize him. And...

wait for it...

He didn't recognize Sniperking as Usopp that's why he became "Nose-ya". Yes, the joke lives on! LOL.

Oh Luffy, you really don't make Law's life easier for him, do you? And this way Law got exposed that he did research a bit about the Strawhats before, enough to memorize them. (I mean not like Bartolomeo, but... but! It kinda looks a bit like that here, doesn't it).

Law will get back at Luffy in Zou for that, no worries. Now you will never see the "Law didn't introduce his crew" in any other light from now on, haha. It was a payback. Luffy didn't care tho lol.

You don't have to believe me on that one, but you can't really deny it does sound suspiciously consistent, doesn't it? :3

Law: Why is everyone telling me that?

Also Sanji, we appreciate it, but you're a little bit late with that warning there lol.

To be honest, I think Law is actually perfectly aware of that, but at the same time he wouldn't mind to be called a friend anyway. He only minds it now because he wants to keep his distance and not form any attachments on his way. And doing poor job at it too.

Luffy looks so happy sitting there next to Law, he looks like he's having the best time in his life. He's probably having a lot of ideas of what to do together with Law now that they're friends in alliance. (many of which would not be met with Law's enthusiasm probably lol).

Luffy: Did you just say dinner will happen 5 times a day from now on??

Luffy's level of excitement here is absolutely stunning. And one more thing very important to note: remember how Luffy usually acts when someone yaps a lot? He might for example ask Nami about something difficult, but quickly loses interest with the answer. He often sleeps through explanations. But here? Law's got his full attention! The one who is actually napping through this is Brook, not Luffy. Luffy thinks Torao is cool and he *wants* to listen to him.

Law, where are you looking? Clearly at your favourite Mugiwara-ya grinning over there. His eyes are always tracking Luffy.

A moment later Luffy turns to see Kin and Zoro fight. Do you all think he noticed Law staring at him right there? You two need to stop being so cute. I can't even believe Oda actually drew a scene like that in shonen, even if he didn't make it obvious. I mean, look at it, Luffy's eyes are shining, I bet their eyes met. I told you all that One Piece is a story about love. Omg I'm disgusted with how this scene tugs on my heart right now. To be fair, I'm not even the first person to notice that Law is staring at Luffy there, I saw people pointing it out before.

Luffy: Hey look Law, we're famous!!

Law: But ofc we are, what do you mean?

Luffy is again trying to get any sort of reaction out of Law directed just for him (did he feel encouraged after he noticed Law staring at him the day before?). Luffy, please, stop, this is getting more and more embarrassing to watch you craving for Law's attention like this.

Law though always gives him that attention, curiously enough. There's not even one frame of Luffy calling out to him and Law just ignoring him. Which shouldn't be surprising, Law always seeks out Luffy as well, rarely with words, but at least with his stares.

In this regard, they're a really good match. Luffy wants to be pampered, and Law wants to pamper. I would usually say it's gross, but it's actually really heartwarming. They both get something out of it that they were both craving.

Law: Hey, am I not providing you with enough entertainment? Forget those boring fellas!

Someone's a bit jelly...

And Brook is again watching over them. God, I swear, it feels like he just *knows*.

Again, Luffy listening to Law talking. He would listen to him no matter what Law is saying, wouldn't he? Luffy is known for his terribly short attention span, but for Law he is capable of unusual feats.

(Also notice Law is always grabbing Caesar by his clothes, never in direct contact)

Time for the ransom call. I know that everyone is screaming there, but Law is suspiciously quiet, this is when he should be firm and confident, but instead he's just standing there. I think it means he was actually pretty anxious about this call, kinda taken aback (and it's not because of people screaming around, he had enough time to get used to that with the Strawhats, also usually it doesn't actually faze him). Luffy on the other hand is excited and thinks this is all super fun lol.

And then Luffy goes and takes over the call. Of course we all think he did it just because he's Luffy and that Law is displeased/angry here, but let's do uno reverse. I might turn your worldview upside down from this point on.

What if Luffy actually sensed Law's anxiety and decided he will help him? Luffy is after all really good at reading people's emotions, right? And of course he would want to help his beloved Torao.

Law looks displeased, but that's because of a sudden closeness. Those of you that followed my series on Law's fear of touch and closeness know what I mean. He can stand Luffy when he's close to him, but not out of a blue like that - he needs to brace himself first. That's why his first instinct here is to try to move away. Sure enough, right in the next moment we see Luffy holding the transponder, which means Law lets him do that actually. If he truly was so displeased and angry, he would have reacted faster to take it back or shouted at him.

Luffy's fuming here for no reason whatsover, Doflamingo didn't actually say anything bad to him yet (or at all really). Sure, Luffy got mad over Caesar, but the conversation already changed to something else, and Luffy is still showing an attitude. He's doing it for Law, isn't he.

Law meanwhile is just standing there, still not attempting to take the transponder back. He's not even trying or talking at all. This really doesn't support the idea of "he's so mad at Luffy for doing this", it actually seems to be the exact opposite: he's kinda overwhelmed here and was ever since Doflamingo picked up his call. Ofc he's also more and more distressed now, bracing himself mentally, because he knows he needs to do something and can't leave it all up to Luffy.

Law realized he needs to stop it, because Doflamingo is trying to bait Luffy, and everyone knows Luffy is weak to baits. In a way, stepping up just to prevent Luffy from getting into dangerous scenario, helped him overcome his own helplessness and anxiety. Luffy meanwhile indeed is losing it lol.

Let's look more closely to Law and Doflamingo's conversation here. Law is trying to make the talk very short, down to business and finish it off quickly. Doffy though stays confident and even tries to mock Law a little bit. It's almost like he's saying "Law, kid, you forgot to show me that my subordinate is fine, you need to step up your kidnapping game a little", he's kinda having this patronizing vibe here. "First step of a ransom call, remember? I taught you that myself".

Putting it all together can explain why Law is so anxious, he expected to hear Doflamingo all devastated, angry even after giving up warlord's title, instead Doflamingo is relaxed, mocking and confident, generally acting like he has the upper hand here. Law is worried, did he miss something, because this is not how it should look like, and he is right. Also he can't stand Doflamingo's confident tone, it's most likely making him feel weak, remembering the past. In their fight in Dressrosa Law will try his best to overcome this feeling by mocking Doflamingo back, but right here he was surprised and unprepared. He probably felt again like a kid, still part of Doflamingo's family, and Doffy's mocking tone like a mentor/parental figure scolding his clumsy subordinate truly added salt to the wound.

Law grits his teeth and continues, attempting to finish the call as soon as possible, full of bad feelings. And this is when Luffy snaps back to reality, gasping and reminding himself "I need to help Torao!" and so he does, by doing actually the best thing possible: cutting off the call.

This seems not-canon to you I bet, but I truly think Luffy tried to actually support Law here and it DID work in the end.

Of course Strawhats don't catch up to it and think Luffy just straightup ruined everything, but look at Law's reaction here. He's suddenly calm and does not blame Luffy for anything, in fact, he goes as far as to declare this is all fine. Would he really say something like that if he was truly angry? No, of course not, we have seen him angry everytime he truly believes his plan was just kicked out of the window by a Strawhat Luffy. This is simply not the case here.

Law is still looking pretty anxious there, probably thinking over multiple scenarios in his head. What did he miss? Why is Doflamingo so confident? This is crucial, after all it's not only about his own safety, but safety of Luffy and his crew.

Luffy meanwhile shows his interest in Law again, wanting to know about Law's adventures. He's probably trying to make Law think of something else instead of overworrying, put his mind off of it. Luffy really sticks with his resolve here of taking care of Law as well.

Also it's ultimately cute how Law is mechanically correcting Luffy on the name of the island (helpfully pointing out only the part he got wrong so it's a shorter word to remember for Luffy, awww), but he does it without even an exclamation mark there. He's not angry or irritated about it. In fact, it just shows he understands Luffy has problem with long and complicated words. He probably knows that's the reason he became "Torao" as well. He gets it, he accepts it, in fact he has no problem with it whatsoever.

Even when distressed and lost in his thoughts Law makes sure to still respond to Luffy when he asks something from him, and Luffy this time uses it to bring him out of his thoughts instead of just seeking attention.

Luffy: Yay, so if Torao has never before been to that island, it means we will have an adventure together! And not just one, there's no way I will let you leave me right afterwards. We're so gonna do more adventures! Dressrosa and Wano! Two adventures with Torao!

Law: This isn't an adventure, be serious!! Our lives are on the line!!

Luffy: Breakfast time!

Law: Breakfast time! *gasp* fuck!

Someone got caught up in someone else's pace. 1:0 for Luffy, he did manage to make Trafalgar Law take a break from his worrying.

Now to understand Law's exaggerated reaction here as something more than just a comedy moment we need to first elaborate a bit on the chapter's title that sets the tone between Doflamingo-Luffy-Law interactions and honestly spans through the whole of Dressrosa arc. This is chapter 700 titled "his pace", the next round chapter is 800 which wraps up Dressrosa. Chapters with round numbers tend to have a huge impact on the whole storyline happening (because Oda really loves his number games).

"Pace" from the title means someone dictating how fast the events are going or swaying things to move in their preferred fashion. Doflamingo does it in this snail talk by playing confident and trying to bait Luffy and undermine Law's confidence. Later he also showers his subordinates with compliments so they will do what he asks them to do - that's also setting pace by keeping everyone in line.

Law's pace in this chapter (and in whole of post-punk hazard transition) was him spiraling the things to move where he wants them, his first snail talk with Doffy was just Law having an overwhelming victory over him. Then through the span of one night things move very fast exactly towards the result Law wanted (Doflamingo resigning from warlord's position). Law usually doesn't use his power of controlling pace to make people do what he wants (unlike Doffy), that's not his style, they're just forced to stick for the ride, but he always leaves liberty in their own hands. For example, when he told Luffy to kidnap Caesar or assemble back Kinemon, he didn't tell them exactly step by step how they should do it: instead he left it to their judgement. In other words, he tells them what to do but not *how* to do stuff, he instead trusts in their ability to figure it out on their own.

And then we have Luffy, who selfishly chooses islands they visit and what enemies they're fighting, so he's also "setting the pace" for others. He controls it to a minimum as well like Law, he just makes sure to take care of the biggest danger himself and trusts the others to do whatever they want, he gives them freedom. His crew do their best out of their own free will to deserve Luffy's trust, every chess piece on the board moves according to what they believe is right, so Luffy's board isn't actually a game of one vs one, but instead of one versus many, because every player has as much liberty as Luffy has.

In this chapter Law lost to Doflamingo's pace, but restored himself, and lost to Luffy's pace and this time declared defeat. Doflamingo won against Law, almost won against Luffy, but then Luffy defeated him in one neat swipe. And why? Because Luffy actually wasn't playing alone, Law and Luffy supported each other there. So in the end Doflamingo lost to both of them.

You think Law didn't take a defeat against Luffy here? Then let's rewind back:

Remember this scene? Law was amused that Smoker would even think that Law can overpace Luffy (after all Luffy punched Caesar instead of kidnapping him and did a feast instead of leaving immediately), but he wasn't going to always allow Luffy to do that. Here he declares he's gonna set the pace and make Luffy follow his plan. He does it because it's neccessary or he won't be able to protect him, but also because of his petty pride or "saving up face", if you prefer that term here. He's not gonna just sit there and let Luffy do everything he wants and wait for him to finish off enemies. Law is throwing a challenge, he's gonna compete with Luffy in that regard.

But before they even reach Dressrosa Law already declares his defeat. Let me show you how: remember how he always loses his hat when he's losing?

Like here. Or in Dressrosa, or Winner Island.

Wait, where's his hat here? And this is the next frame after Law's big comical "gasp" moment, when he got dragged into Luffy's pace of "enough worrying, time for breakfast!". Yep, he knew he lost there, allowed himself to loosen up and took off his hat by himself as a sign of his defeat and Luffy's victory. But that's also because he's just a good mannered boy who knows you don't eat with your hat on.

It truly is a 1:0 for Luffy and Law is actually okay with that (losing to Luffy's pace is actually not a negative experience, because Luffy doesn't manipulate people with evil agenda in mind, like Doflamingo. He did it only because he wants Law to relax). And this sets up how the events went on in Dressrosa.

Also can I just point out that all it took for Luffy to sway him was to declare with a smile "Yay adventure with Law! Can't wait! And now breakfast!" and Law was already dragged into his pace? I mean... Law, Luffy didn't even do anything special. He was just basically himself there. Law's so smitten with him that it's all it took, honestly. Of course the support he got on that call from him also counted into that, but Law didn't declare defeat then yet, after all he also supported Luffy back in that call.

In later arcs Law will still attempt to be petty about this ongoing "competition", not wanting to leave it all up to Luffy, lol. He migth have lost once, but the war is ongoing! He's such a petty loser, I adore that flaw in him.

Luffy butting-in, making sure Kinemon doesn't just steal Law away for the Wano adventure. Hey, I'm gonna be part of that adventure as well!

Law's attempt to stop him there is really miserable. He can't bring himself up to deny Luffy when he sounds so happy, huh. My heart can't take it.

Law's already back to worrying again haha. His neverending journey of worrying when together with Luffy continues! Let it never end honestly.

He's also conflicted, because everytime Luffy acts so excited he thinks back to Lammy, as she was the exactly same energetic type of a person as Luffy haha.

i don't think Luffy gets it that this time around he's only making Law worry more and not less, awww.

That's all for now. Dressrosa will come up next (I might take a break from this series to answer some asks first :D). I hope you enjoyed seeing this chapter through different lens, it's fine if you still prefer it as just a comedy moment of Luffy acting like a complete menace and Law regretting his life choices. I think it's neat that the manga supports actually both interpretations, one on more casual level and the other more in-depth.

There is something I want to share about World Seeker Law's dlc, it's not really a spoiler, just one line that Law says that relates to the previous part of this series of posts (if you want to skip it then just don't read from now on! There's nothing more to this post afterwards).

This is what Law says in the game. I know that games are not considered 100% canon, but Oda DID work on both World Seeker and Odyssey, and honestly many lines and overall feeling of the game goes along with the canon. Law's complicated relation to closeness is definitely a part of this DLC, for example.

And here he says he doesn't mind what people actually call him! He never complained about "Torao" when Luffy called him this way, not even once. But he does make this one sour face when Nami does that as well. Makes one really think why is this such a special case for him, doesn't it? :D Again, he wants it to be a special name only from Luffy, doesn't he.

Writing Advice: (fake?) Latin

not necessarily for writing, but general latin advice. I'm meaning Latin the language, not any other meanings here.

if you're making fake latin, maybe just use real latin.

google translate is pretty alright, actually, if you don't know latin

if you're set on dog latin, don't make it sound exactly the same

3 addendum: not all latin words end in 'um' or 'us'. they also end in 'a', 'ae', 'I', 'orum/arum' 'ibus' 'is' 'ibus' 'is' 'o' 'es' 'is'. this is a list for nouns.

verbs are important. you can maybe have an implied verb, but you do not want to. verbs have a variety of endings, depending on person, number and tense. I'm not getting into mood, because I can't be subjunctive about it, and it is imperative I opt out of indicating what moods are. (I don't feel like it)

common verb endings: '-o' (I do x), '-I' (I did x) '-imus' (we did x) '-te' (you[pl] do that [order]) variations on '-nt' (they do/did/have done/will do x)

please, please, if you are going to use latin as a base for magic words, do not do as She Who Must Not Be Named did and mix actual researched latin with pig latin. it's really annoying, and also not hard to pick up a latin-english dictionary.

MORE IMPORTANT: don't use greek letters. just don't. if you are going to get a tattoo of latin words with greek letters 1) don't do it, 2) if you're dead set on it make sure the greek letters say what you want them to say.

ɸ - this letter is not ever a replacement for I. it isn't. trust me. it makes a 'ph' sound.

⍴ - this looks like a p. it is not. it is an 'r' sound.

Σ - this is a capital letter. it is not an e. it just isn't. it is an 's' sound.

𝚲 - this is not an a. nor is Δ. they are 'L' and 'D' respectively.

𝜭 - this is 'th', not o

𝜞 - this is not L. it is 'g'

𝜰 - this is actually 'u', but pronounced more like 'y' so I guess you can use it.

yes this post is aimed at those bad tattoos of Veni Vidi Vici spelt with greek letters, and that one tattoo of a terrible translation of in the valley of the shadow of death that actually used 'of' when they should use the genitive instead.

I know this post will get no notes but I needed to say it

[krakenartificer]

This is... okay this is an insane message for me to send so I do apologize, but! The 'd' in 'djbouti' is so that readers don't try to make the 'j' into a 'zh', which is extremely common as a mispronunciation in English and French. The 'd' is "silent" but it gives readers an idea of where to place their tongue when starting the 'j', since English uses 'j' to represent multiple sounds. In this way it is similar to 'h' in Spanish! Okay, sorry for thebither. Have a lovely day!

No no, tasty knowledge nuggets are always appreciated, especially linguistic ones!

Yeah, I was thinking about this the other day while I was looking at lists of words with silent letters. Like, English orthography is a mess -- no one can dispute that -- but it's not as much of a mess as some of these lists are implying. Yes, there are exceptions to every rule, and some things you just straight-up have to memorize (sugar, my darling, what are you doing??), but actually most of the weird exceptions are things you've learned by the time you're 12, and all the harder words are pretty straightforward (if you know phonics).

Like, yes, the e in cane is silent in the sense that it's not pronounced ca-nee, but it definitely affects pronunciation (as explained most entertainingly by our good friend Tom Lehrer [x]). And once you know how to pronounce ph, tion, and how e affects the vowels ahead of it (and why you therefore need two fs in affect to stop the e from doing that) ... you can go a long ways on sight-reading English, even when -- as you say -- we're using d to harden a j even though that's not a "real rule".

One thing I wish I'd learned way earlier is that some of our "silent letters" are there to help you understand how words are related -- like the c in muscle, which isn't really doing anything, is there so you know it's related to muscular, where the c is very relevant. I can spell bureaucracy correctly on the first try every time now, now that I realize it's spelled that way because it's related to bureau. And even pterodactyl makes some amount of sense when you realize that the spelling wants you to know that it's related to orthopter, lepidopter, and helicopter.

Anyway, thanks for helping me pronounce Djbouti correctly!

Fictober 2023

Prompt number: #15, “Fine, explain it to me.” Fandom (AU if applicable): Law & Order: SVU Pairing: Sonny Carisi x Reader, Motorcycle!AU Rating: M Warnings/Tags: Warnings: not safe for work, profanity, sexual content; Tags: AU

-----

This takes place right after the previous Fictober 2023 fill and is very en ess eff double u!

“I heard you earlier, Sonny,” you said tightly as you crossed your arms across your chest. “And I know that, anyway. I know, okay? But I don’t want to have this conversation again right now.”

“There’s only a conversation,” Sonny came down on the last word hard with dripping sarcasm, “because you keep lying to me. Little or big, doesn’t make a difference.” He threw his hands in the air in exasperation.

“Don’t get high and mighty on me,” you started, revving up even though you’d just said you didn’t want to talk about it. “Leaning on this ‘no lying’ shit this heavy is a bit rich coming from a goddamn outlaw.” 

“I’m the goddamn outlaw, that’s right,” Sonny growled. His hands came to square your hips on the bed. “Which means that I have a ph motherfucking D in lying.” You clenched your jaw and looked up into his eyes stormily. “But that’s not how this whole partnership thing is supposed to go.”

“Fine, explain it to me,” you said defiantly.

“We’re going home,” Sonny said lowly. “Together. Now.” He stood in one lithe movement. The leather of his worn kutte squeaked slightly and you heard a cheer go up in the other room. “I don’t give a shit about this party and if you want to sit and brood, you can do that in the house we have spent a lot of energy into making a home.”

The air crackled and the mood shifted into something slow, sweet, and bitter - molasses. 

“You want to stay, let’s stay,” you insisted as you stood up from the bed and stepped close to him. Stubbornness and pettiness stirred a dangerous cocktail within you. “I don’t give a goddamn where we are right now.”

Sonny’s hands came up on his hips and he took a step forward towards you. The frame of the bed dug into your calves as you took a step back automatically. He took another step forward and you side stepped him to stand in front of the door. There was a dark look in his eye as he half looked over his shoulder at you from under his eyelids. He sucked his bottom lip into his mouth again and tilted his head contemplatively. When you shifted your weight - from impatience, budding arousal, or nervousness, you weren’t really sure - his eyes dropped to your hips and then came back up to your face in a slow meandering line. Sonny stalked towards you slowly and his maintained eye contact seemed to pin your feet to the floor. You had the distinct feeling that you were now the rabbit and he was the coyote.

“You’ve got a mighty dirty mouth tonight, doll,” Sonny drawled as he tucked his chin and tilted his head to maintain eye contact even as he now towered over you. 

A step back had your shoulder blades colliding with the door behind you. There was nowhere for you to go and Sonny still hadn’t even touched you. Anticipation ratcheted up and the molasses turned golden in your mouth, like honey. Your mouth went dry even as the space between your legs dampened.

In lieu of a response, you rolled your eyes and cocked your hip. Sonny smirked at your bravado and finally dropped one of the hands from his hips. Unrushed he brought it up to your mouth and traced your lips lazily. A white hot path followed in his finger’s wake and your lips tingled without ever having been kissed. When you nipped his finger suddenly he drew back in surprise and then chuckled lowly.

“It’s good that you’ve still got that fighting spirit.” 

Sonny pressed against you, but you refused to try to back away this time. There wasn’t anywhere for you to go even if you had wanted to. He had you pinned and was barely touching you. And almost worst than all, he knew that you liked it. He knew that you were letting him hew you in. He knew that this is what you needed - him in charge, him calling the shots, him overwhelming you so that your brain would finally stop buzzing. Sonny had been right, much more than you’d given him credit for, and he watched the realization flicker across your face and answered it with a slight, smug smile.

“I told you that I can see what’s been in front of my face for a long time,” he said lowly. 

The smell of alcohol wafted off of his breath into your face as he ducked his head slowly to bring his nose right against yours, but it wasn’t a turn off. If anything, it made your blood heat even more because this was raw Sonny singularly focused on you. You leaned up to close the distance between your mouths, but he caught your shoulders in his hands and pressed you back against the door.

“I hope you still don’t give a goddamn where we are right now, doll,” Sonny rasped before ducking his mouth to your neck. 

His grip on your shoulders was firm and just this side of not hurting, but there was no mistaking the reminder that he had you pinned deliberately. You hissed when his teeth closed on the delicate skin of your neck and when you squirmed he tightened his hold on your arms but pulled his mouth away. 

“Because I’m going to fuck you against this door.” Sonny kept going even when you inhaled sharply through your nose. “And if you don’t keep those pretty lips pressed very firmly together.” He stole in for a quick kiss and you strained to chase his mouth before he pulled out of a reach with a chuckle that made your face go hot. “If you don’t keep those pretty lips pressed together, everyone is going to hear you.” He bent low to whisper the last part in your ear and you squirmed against his grip again.

“Sonny–”

He cut off your plea with a shake of his head and a hand over your mouth.

“You didn’t want to have a conversation, so let’s not talk.”

In a single motion, Sonny turned you around so that you were facing the door as he adjusted his hand over your mouth. Now, your back pressed firmly to his front and he pressed on your mouth a little, making you arch your back into his chest. When you rolled your hips back into his he chuckled again and you didn’t care this time. Wanton with arousal, you played the cards you had.

“Tsk tsk,” he admonished. The reprisal was short lived because he dropped his hand from your mouth to the front of your jeans. His fingers were warm when they pushed under the hem of your shirt to rest on your lower belly. His pinky edged under your waistband and your arousal grew. “None of that, sweetheart. We’re on my timeline.”

“Then, hurry the fuck up,” you gritted out with a heavy weight on the profanity. Testing him. “Or did you drink too much and now you’re all promises and limp cactus.”

“Cute,” Sonny said drily. A hand slid into the back of your hair and gripped the base of your skull with the flatness of his palm pressed against you firmly. With his other hand, he grabbed your right one and forced it against the bulge in the front of his jeans. “You tell me if that’s thorny enough for you, darling.”

Your mind went helpfully blank and you said nothing. For a moment, all you could hear was the blood in your ears and loudness of your breath. Behind it, the sound of breaking glass preceded an uproar on the other side of the door and you leaned forward to let your forehead press against the wood. 

“Good girl,” Sonny rasped lowly. 

He guided your wrist to the door over your head and pressed it firmly before releasing it. You kept your hand still and he murmured appreciatively again as he kicked your left foot out to widen your stance. 

“Good girls get rewarded,” he promised in the same voice that had the hair on the back of your neck standing up and the arousal between your legs dripping. 

Your face burned again as you anticipated his reaction when he found out just how wet you were. He guided your other hand to press next to your right hand on the door and then caught your wrists in his grip. This time, when he pressed his crotch against you and you pressed back he didn’t admonish you.

His free hand somehow made quick work of the button and zipper on your jeans and not for the first time you felt a zing at the base of your spine realizing that he was still just as deft after drinking as he was sober. When had you missed this? This sharper, deadlier Sonny. When had he learned to balance this sloppiness with this…precision? You didn’t have any time to follow that train of thought any longer because he was roughly tugging your jeans down enough to slip over your ass and down your thighs. His hand cupped you and you exhaled strongly and let your head loll back to meet his shoulder.

“This is what you want, isn’t it?” It was a rhetorical question and still you made to answer before he ran his middle finger along your slit outside of your panties. He pulled the answer from you instead. You moaned before you could catch it and this time you felt him chuckle. “Doll, you’re very wet.” Sonny’s tone was almost conversational and when you squirmed he tightened his grip on the hand capturing your wrists above your head. “Very.”

“Son-ny!” Your face sharply rose on the end of his name as he pulled your panties aside and dipped a finger between your folds to encircle your clitoris once.

“I’m going to fuck you,” he said conversationally as he pulled his hand away. 

You could feel his knuckles jostling as he roughly unzipped his pants. They fell to the floor with a loud clatter of the buckle and keys colliding and you swallowed hard. You could feel his length against you and you knew that there was little you could do to make Sonny hurry up. He was going to take you exactly how he wanted to. And he knew that that was exactly what you wanted.

“And you can be as loud as you want,” he continued in the same conversational tone. “Keep your hands exactly where I put them or I’ll stop.” He pressed against them one last time before one hand went to your hair again and the other to your hip.

“My hands are a little preoccupied right now, sweetheart, why don’t you fuck yourself back onto me?” 

You shuddered and the hand in his hair pulled back sharply and made you arch your back. The hand on your hip lined you up and then let go to hold himself firmly at your entrance.

“Push right on back and show me how desperate you are for me,” Sonny murmured.

You longed to press your forehead against the door, feeling bare and exposed, but his grip on your hair wasn’t loosening. Instead, you closed your eyes and sank back, taking him inch by inch until he was fully seated. Sonny nosed against your temple roughly before pressing a small kiss to it. 

“That all you got?”

“I thought you were going to fuck me,” you ground out. 

Sonny laughed and it was a wild bark instead of the chuckle from before. A heavy hand dropped onto the top of your right butt cheek and you flinched a little. He soothed the sting with a squeeze and then gripped either side of your hips in firm hands. You let your forehead rest against the door finally and you’d barely felt it make contact before he was pulling out and pushing back in roughly. It pulled a surprised moan out of you, but he didn’t slow down. 

Immediately, he set a driving pace as he pulled your hips back to meet his and arched your back more to his liking. Your panties caught against your clit roughly where they had been partially pushed out of the way and you knew it was not going to take you long to come. It was like Sonny had sensed that because his strokes got harder and more insistent. His body pressed against yours heavily and you were completely overwhelmed by him. 

“How’s that, doll?” Sonny huffed out. Without seeing his face you could still sense the smugness under his arousal. You could taste how self-satisfied he was and how he was not going to relent unless you wanted him to. “You remember who I am, yet.”

You swore and this time when you let your forehead rest against the door like a prayer you moaned loudly. There was a part of you that wanted other people to hear. You wanted to be claimed and for everyone to remember that you belonged to Sonny. No matter what, you belonged to him. No matter what, he’d take care of anyone and anything else that tried to fuck with you. No matter what, he was unrelenting in his attention and care for you. No matter what. Tears pricked at the corners of your eyes and you moaned louder.

“Good girl,” he praised in a gentler tone. 

His hips maintained the same unrelenting rhythm before stuttering to a stop for a moment. You opened your mouth to protest, but he pushed you towards and then onto the bed before you could. Bearing you down onto the mattress, he slot himself between your thighs and pressed back into you barely missing a beat. You pressed the side of your face into the pillow and he tugged the fabric away from your mouth before capturing your hands on either side of your head and pressing them firmly into the bed.

“I’ve got you,” Sonny whispered. He kissed the moisture at the corner of your eyes and shifted up to fuck into you in short firm strokes. “I’ve got you, doll.”

“Sonny.” 

Your voice sounded wrecked even to your own ears and you thought for sure he would stop. His worry always won out. But this time, much to your relief, he just kissed the high point of your cheek again and kept driving into you.

“You’re going to come for me.” He pressed his mouth to your ear and his closeness contrasted with the laughter that you could hear in the other room made you melt. Even with the party raging on, his attention was on you.

A knock pounded on the door suddenly and you froze. Your stomach swooped and the breath was pushed out of you as Sonny switched from short strokes to long ones. Unrelenting even with this new distraction.

“No!” Sonny called harshly to whoever was knocking.

“Boss, you’re missing a–”

“Go the fuck away!” Sonny interrupted in the same harsh tone that was at odds with the honeyed tilt of his hips. “Now.”

Heavy footsteps stomped away and you breathed a sign of relief. You couldn’t remember if the door was closed, although only a stupid prospect would be insane enough to open Sonny’s door without permission. Still, you’d seen stupider things in your time.

“Don’t you worry, love,” Sonny soothed with a teasing rasp, “You have my full attention.”

“Please, Sonny,” you pleaded. It was the most you’d said in a while and you could hear the smile in Sonny’s voice when he responded.

“I’ve got you,” he promised. He lay over your back, pressing you deeper into the mattress and himself deeper inside of you. “You’re doing so good for me, doll. You going to come for me?”

You turned your head to press your forehead against the pillow, hiding your face and letting the fabric under your mouth dampen from your ragged open mouthed breathing. Even if you had wanted to answer him, you couldn’t, because your orgasm was suddenly crackling through you like you’d been struck with lighting. It licked up your spine and you moaned his name so loudly that if it hadn’t been muffled in the comforter it definitely would have been heard from the other side of the door.

Sonny swore and his hips stuttered as he came right after you. He rolled his hips a few more times before collapsing into the bed and narrowly missing you. With a clumsy outstretch of his arms, he pulled you back into his chest.

“C’mere,” he murmured as he guided you to turn so that you were facing him. You ducked your chin and avoided his gaze. Feelings of embarrassment and contentment jockeyed to be dominant and embarrassment was winning for the moment. “Love you,” he huffed against your forehead. His lips were warm where they brushed your skin and he tightened his arms around you and let you hide.

“And I’ve got you.”

How to Come Up with Time Lord Names

Sooooo...I did a letter-by-letter analysis of 230 names from the wiki's list of Time Lords, making sure I only chose characters that both 1) had names that sounded like part of the same language and 2) had their jobs listed so I could correlate name-segments with talents.

If you want to see my whole headcanon about how Time Lord names work and what each syllable means, I've put it on AO3. If you just want to know what sounds and syllables to include when you're coming up with names, the analysis I did of all those existing names is below the cut.

Most syllables consist of a consonant followed by a vowel.

A syllable can only contain one vowel (with the exception of IA, which acts like a single vowel).

Every syllable contains at least one consonant (with the exception of O, which can stand alone without a consonant attached).

About 46% of analyzed syllables add a second consonant after the vowel. About 18% of analyzed syllables follow a vowel-consonant pattern. Only nine consonants are used after vowels. (C/K/Ch, D, F/Ph/P, L/LL, M/N, R, S/Sh, T/Th, X)

Total names analyzed: 230

Total syllables in analyzed names: 719

Number of syllables based around each vowel:

A 295 (36% 0f analyzed syllables) E 129 (18% 0f analyzed syllables) O 127 (18% 0f analyzed syllables) I 118 (16% 0f analyzed syllables) U 50 (7% 0f analyzed syllables)

Number of syllables beginning with consonants: 592 (82% of analyzed syllables)

Number of syllables beginning with each consonant:

R 77 (11% 0f analyzed syllables) T 70 (10% 0f analyzed syllables) L 68 (9% of analyzed syllables) N 46 S/Sh 40 V 42 C/K/Ch 41 D 40  M 32 G 21 P 21 B 14  Tr 13 H 12 Dr 10 Br 7 F/Ph 6  J 6 X 6 Z 5 Fl 3 Sp 3 Qu 3 W 2 Y 2

Number of syllables beginning with vowels: 127 (18% of analyzed syllables)

Number of syllables beginning with each vowel:

A 61 (8% of analyzed syllables) E 24 O 19 U 16 I 7

Number of syllables ending with consonants: 332 (46% of analyzed syllables)

Number of syllables ending with each consonant:

M/N 102 (14% of analyzed syllables, 31% of syllables ending with consonants) R 67 (9% of analyzed syllables, 20% of syllables ending with consonants) S/Sh 52 (16% of syllables ending with consonants) L/LL 43 (13% of syllables ending with consonants) X 22 C/K/Ch 15 T/Th 14 D 12 F/Ph/P 5

Most Commonly Used Syllables:

An (15 times) Na (15 times) Ra (15 times) Ri (14 times) Ta (14 times) La (13 times) Ro (11 times) Sa (11 times) Us (11 times) Ti (10 times) All other syllables appeared fewer than ten times in the analysis.

"Oh, why can't we for once. Say what we want, say what we feel?"

(Take A Chance With Me - NIKI)

In celebration of the show's first anniversary, here's a new Scottley piece. Once again, based on the mixtape shared by Camille (from the HOI crew). Should've chosen "Like or Like Like" by Miniature Tigers for this one.

I made two versions of it, the regular night moon and the romantic strawberry moon.

I'm glad to have this as one of my handpicked Disney TVA shows, alongside Gravity Falls, Star, and The Owl House.

As co-creator Devin Bunje said on X (Twitter), binge all of S1 on D+ (including the PH) in order to score a second season.

Dream... the Truth?

tl;dr: we as a community need to do better. I am disappointed that things have gone this far.

Do I have your attention? Dream finally made a video addressing the twitter drama, and I'm gonna run my mouth on it!

It's totally understandable to not want to sit through the whole hour and 22 minutes of the video but since I'm sick right now I got nothing better to do, and boy oh boy do I have opinions about this.

The only thing I ask is that if you take my words and use them for any kind of content/post of your own, please provide the whole post as a reference. I don't want to be taken out of context. Also, I want to be very clear that I don't have any ill will towards anyone involved. I have my ideas and opinions, but they are mine and I don't think any of what I say should be used as more fuel for the hate train. I'm simply offering my own perspective.

Also, I will be censoring certain words, not because I feel uncomfortable saying them but because I don't know what Tumblr's policy is and spelling the full word would not change the meaning of the message.

SO.

Here's my thoughts on Dream's most recent video:

Starting with the most serious topic he covered, that of the gr**ming allegations. I think he's provided as much proof as is possible to defend himself from the allegations of gr**ming, talking about s*x**l things with underaged fans, and in general any illegal activity. It is quite difficult to prove beyond a shadow of a doubt that you never did something, because in order to do that you'd have to show proof of everything that you have ever done, every interaction that you've ever had with ANYONE, and that is just straight up impossible. There's a reason that in a court of law the burden of proof is always on the accuser.

However... though he says repeatedly that he didn't do anything inappropriate with anyone underage, I did notice that he never outright denied having s*x**l interactions with fans in general. This makes me wonder if perhaps he has had such interactions, but with people who are legal adults. This is just speculation, obviously I have no way of knowing one way or the other, but this is a very well put together and planned video, so I do believe that everything included or not included in it was done intentionally. Take that as you will.

If that is the case, it's certainly weird and gross, but not illegal, especially considering that Dream isn't some old dude, he's a young adult himself. So if something like that did happen, it wouldn't be grooming, but would in my opinion be indicative of bad choices being made by all parties involved. Seriously, if you're a content creator you should never s*xt fans, and if you're a fan you should never try to rizz up your favorite youtuber. It's gross, even if it's legal. Again, I am not saying that I have any proof, or have seen any proof that Dream did do anything like this, but I want to make it clear that I'm not condoning it if he did.

Dream also spent a bunch of time talking about Nick Cantu, who I will be abbreviating as NC from here on out.

NC began accusing Dream of being a p*d*ph*le without any real proof to back it up and being that NC is also rather famous it really blew up, causing the latest round of nonsense. So far, I've seen no evidence that even remotely supports Dream being a p*d*ph*le. Screenshots can be fabricated, and it seems like no one even did a good job on the photoshop.

Dream and NC have an... explosive history and it seems as though NC was the aggressor throughout the entire thing even if Dream did have a not-so-great reaction to it. It's hard to stay calm when you're being falsely accused. For more context on this, watch the video, but my conclusion regarding NC is that he's got some issues that he needs to work on. I feel bad for him, but Dream is not responsible for NC's actions and statements. It's sad to see someone offload their own stress by causing pain to other people.

That about covers the possible illegal activity that Dream was accused of. But I do have more to say on the entire subject.

Dream has been through a lot. He's young. Like many of us, he had a "dream" (pun 100% intended) of becoming a famous Youtuber. Unlike many of us, he actually did it.

Did he understand what he was signing up for?

Does he really deserve to deal with this mess?

Did his family ask for this?

Regardless of if he's made bad choices, there is no proof that he's done anything illegal. NONE. And unless actual proof comes out, all of the attempts to cancel Dream or dox him and his family have done far more harm than any of his actions.

The MCYT community has a lot of good people, but it seems to me that there's also a lot of stupid people in the fandom. We may not understand the power that we hold over people's lives. We might think that we're just retweeting something, or jumping on a bandwagon by liking and replying, but we all have to remember that there are real people on the receiving end of everything we say.

Don't take accusations for granted. Remember that there's always going to be someone trying to tear down those who are successful, for no other reason than jealousy and bitterness. For the love of God, don't be like that. Just be a decent f*cking person. It's not that hard.

X (unnamed) Conlang

Alright so imma be posting about this conlang im making idk how much ill be working on it but ive got a bit started and i want to share it ^-^. currently unnamed as I want to name it what the people speaking it would call it, but i havent got that far. im also starting with a proto-language and evolving from there. in my dreams this branches out into a bunch of daughter languages somewhere down the line.

a lot of what ill be saying here is fairly technical language so if anyone is confused but interested shoot me an ask or dm i love talking about linguistics!!

so! starting with phonology its a fairly regular inventory, nothing *crazy*. (cant do like. a table on here so the formatting is a little weird)

consonants:

plosives: /p/, /t/, /c/, /k/, /ʔ/

nasals: /m/, /n/, /ɲ/, /ŋ/

fricatives: /ɸ/, /s/, /ç/, /x/, /h/

liquids: /ɾ/, /l/

approximant: /j/

vowels:

close: /i/, /u/

mid: /e/, /ə/, /o/

far: /a/

so the first thing to note is the lack of almost any voiced consonants. I think they're probably within allophonic with the voiceless ones but for simplicity its just written as voiceless ones. the palatal series is fairly obvious, those arent englishy, and i couldnt resist adding the glottal stop. i know not all languages have a rhotic, but i wanted one and since i cant actually produce an alveolar trill i went with a tap. i kinda need all the sounds to be things i can at least somewhat pronounce. the bilabial fricative is a fun sound that i dont see much so i threw that in and it basically works with the fricative series.

as for vowels i went with the normal five vowel system plus a mid central vowel. i also considered going for four vowels instead of five, which would probably have ended up being something like /i/, /u/, /ɛ/, /ɔ/, but i think that's more common and i wanted something close to the five vowel system but still pretty unique.

romanization orthography:

most of the phonemes are represented with their ipa representations, including <ʔ> for /ʔ/, <c> for /c/, and <x> for /x/ and basically all the english sounds. i chose <f> for /ɸ/ since /f/ is very similar and <ph> would be indistinguishable from <p> and then <h>. <ny> and <ng> for /ɲ/ and /ŋ/ made the most sense to me, as did <r> for /ɾ/ and <ch> for /ç/. i dont like having to use digraphs for some of these but i couldn't think of a better alternative while still making all the letters distinct.

phonotactics:

im very proud of the phonotactics/syllable structure since i wrote a python program to generate randomized syllables and put a LOT of thought into the distributions.

syllables are C(C)V(C), which is broken down as (A or B or AC or C or D)V(A or B or nothing) with the groups

A = p, t, k, f, s, ch, x

B = m, n, ng

C = j, l

D = c, ny, ʔ, h, r

V = i, u, e, ə, o, a

ive also started on some of the lexicon but not much so i wont go into that here

X-Files Collector’s Edition: Canonical-Esque Crack Fic {Edited}

Crack fic isn’t a seek-and-find for me; but these, Dear Reader, are so well-written that an angel descended to place a holy smooch on my forehead-- platonically, of course. (And they at least make more sense than anything canonical that Cracked-Crust Carter wrote recently.) 

Loose chronological order below~ 

@poolsidescientist​‘s (Ao3) Overshadowed   

““I don’t even know why you wanted me to read it. You said you found it in the trash. Maybe it was there for a reason.”

“What makes you say that?” It was more of an accusation than a question.

“You mean, other than the fact that it’s terrible? Reading it was a waste of my time.” Skinner organised his papers and stuffed them in his briefcase. “It was the second worst thing I’ve read this week.””

S1-2 CSM wants someone to read his book... and tricks Skinner into doing so. And immediately regrets it. 

@viceversawrites’s (Ao3) Mulder eating a whole pie

““Conversely, Scully is still wide-eyed. “A whole pie? Mulder, I’m not sharing, and we can’t take it with us on the plane in the morning.”

“Who said I was going to share?” Mulder asked, a genuine tone of confusion in his voice.””

Post Jose Chung From Outer Space-- Scully is horrified to witness Mulder eating a whole pie in person, but doesn’t know what appalls her more: this hidden talent, or his complete nonchalance about it.

Stephanie Lutz’s Mask of the Green Death 

““Skinner took Scully’s arm and pulled her aside.  “I’d keep clear of Romeo if I were you,” he warned her in a low voice, inclining his head to the other side of the table.  “He’s been at the punch already.” 

Scully followed his gaze to where Agent Pendrell stood swaying slightly, in a poet’s shirt, and very tight tights.... Obviously spotting her, Pendrell’s already bright eyes widened, and he waved vigorously.””

It’s a S3-4 Halloween party at the Skinners; and Scully has to avoid the shenanigans of not only her partner, but also the besotted poet Pendrell.  Meanwhile, CSM roasts Mulder over his outfit. Even the aliens have thoughts. 

bellefleur’s Iced  

““Mulder took a deep breath and stepped back from the curtain, going over the routine in his head.  He had spent the day receiving a private lesson from the choreographer, topped off by a dress rehearsal with the entire cast less than an hour before curtain.  They had simplified the routine for his sake, but he hoped he wouldn't blow it.  If that wasn't complicated enough, he also had to keep watch for anything suspicious, since any of the skaters or backstage workers could be their suspect.   

They just didn't pay him enough for this job.””

Post Detour Mulder must relive his Ice Capades trauma in an ice-skating Big Bird disguise. Scully is fooled into believing she has escaped unscathed. 

Loved this one so much it deserved a badly drawn sketch: 

Is There A Doctor In the House

““Curious about the persistent clicking, Scully quietly approached until she could catch a glimpse of his screen. 

"Hard at work, I see?" 

"Scully!"  He closed the solitaire game, but not soon enough to escape her view.  "What are you doing home so early?”"

IWTB Mulder spends his time in isolation productively avoiding his Ph. D.’s thesis paper, gridlocking himself out of re-certification. Scully finally brings the hammer down. 

Pattie’s

Youthful Distraction  

““The smile on her face faded quickly when she turned to see someone sitting behind Mulder's desk. He wore a sweatshirt, loose jeans, and he appeared to be a teen-aged boy.

"May I help you? This is a private office."

"Good," the young man said. "Let's keep it that way. Before you say anything else, just close the door and I can explain. I think." Mulder knew it was going to be a rough time.””

S5 CSM creates a clone to trick Mulder into using de-aging cream, turning him into a teenage. Scully saves him, as usual, and the X-Files are not lost due to this recent doubt of stupidity.

X-Net

““Yes. Uh... Jack. You sound like you grew up here. There's no difficulty with your English."

"Second generation Earth," he said. He sipped his coffee, as the others nodded knowingly. "I was born in Mississippi. Even tried out for Jeopardy once, but... well, you can see why I was turned down."

"Yes," was all I could manage to say. I couldn't imagine America exposed to the sight of a grey on a game show, but perhaps there would be a time when we would overcome that and be more egalitarian.”"

S7 Skinner shocks both his agents with their new assignment: investigate an alien slavery farm. They have surprisingly good English; but the whole situation is so chill and bizarre that Scully ends up creating elaborate conspiracies to justify it while Mulder accepts the facts for what they are.

See Fox Run

““See Fox run. See Fox run after villain.  See Fox lose gun.

Here is Dana.  See Dana run.  See Dana run in big girl shoes.

See Walter.  See Walter sit at his desk. See Dana and Fox sit in frontof Walter's desk. Walter has a big desk.””

Dick-and-Jane-esque narration of Mulder and Scully’s daily activities.  

Thalia D’Muse’s I Lay a Rose Upon Your Grave

““I...I'm sorry it's taken me so long to visit you. I should have been here sooner, but...well, you know how life has a tendency to overwhelm you. You more than anyone know what it's like to live a life against the odds, always wondering what's around the next corner. You had such courage in the face of adversity. I admire you for that.””  

S5 Mulder eulogizes Elvis’s memory for Valentine’s Day. And Scully’s over it.

This is giving me “DD and Gary Shandling's man-crush comedic bit” vibes.

Ten’s (Gossamer) Taco Bell Tails  

““It also looked incredibly dumb. Garfield's Odie brought to life. Queequeg had been an overgrown powderpuff with a tongue, but this one looked like it had been put together all wrong. For one thing, the head seemed very narrow, not allowing for much of a brain. 

Mulder saw that Scully was watching him carefully, so was glad he had kept his opinions to himself. He said, "I won't keep you." Then he remembered. "Oh, since you've got what looks like the live Taco Bell dog, you might like these miniature ones. Here." He slid the talking toys out of the bag, onto the sofa.””

S5 Scully has another dog-- a weird chihuahua-- and Mulder accidentally sets off his feral, protective side over some puppy plushes. 

Girlie_girl7′s 

Of Two Minds

““Scully slides off the bed.  "I'm not Mulder!  You're Mulder and you're here because you've sustained a concussion in the line of duty," then she shakes her head, "and you don't remember any of this do you?"

Mulder stares at his partner.  "Are you the nurse? Because if you are it's highly inappropriate for you to be sitting on my bed.”"

Post The Ghosts That Stole Christmas-- Mulder wakes from a knock on the head with SCULLY’s memories. Scully’s further thrown for a loop by Skinner mildly blaming HER for not just dating already; Maggie swooping in and “adopting” Mulder, and TLG sneering at Mulder’s sneers of their beliefs and conspiracies.

The Love Bug

““Strap do you personally know any of the people that were affected by this love bug."

"Well sir, there's Granville Banger fer one."

Mulder looks surprised.  "He was affected?"

"I guess so.  Ol' Gran never had any inclination to get hitched and then 'bout three years a go this month he met Elsie and fell in love."

Mulder scrunches up his face.  "She wasn't a cow was she?"

"No sir.  She was a big woman but I wouldn't call her no cow."

Post Brand X-- A farmer and his cow, a woman with a James Dean shrine, bunk beds, and limestone highs make for a really trippy case. 

Cornerofmadness‘s 

The Simple Truth  

““Mulder, we can not tell this to Skinner.” Scully watched the blob floating out to sea.

“Why not?” He flopped down in the sand, also studying the waves and the thing moving out against their relentless search for the shore. It looked silly with him in a suit and tie. His camera dangled loosely from its wrist strap. “It's the truth.”

Scully sighed, pinching her nose. “There's the truth, and there's this.”

Post Agua Mala Scully whines about having to tell Skinner that their latest case involved a 15 ft. penguin terrorizing the Floridian coast. Mulder sticks to his principles and reminds Scully of their office poster.   

Of Webs and Flames  

““The heat of the blaze warmed Mulder, and he needed it after being in the forest for so many hours. Of course, much of his chill wasn’t from the early spring evening but rather the fact that the forest had crawled with spiders the size of deer. It had looked like the Mirkwood in there. Next to him Scully leaned on their car, her face illuminated by the dancing flames. Her eyes remained huge, fixed on the forest fire.””

A giant forest-fire is not the reason Mulder and Scully are investigating this latest case-- in fact, he might have set it on fire. Giant spiders and all that. But it’s a great backdrop for Mulder to make his move. 

Sarah Ellen Parsons’s My Constant Touchstone Who Makes Me A Whole Person

““It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, but I knew that this must be the beginning of a beautiful friendship.  I had learned to trust no one, though I still wanted to believe.  But I was tilting at windmills, until you arrived and kept me honest.  Kept me from crucifying myself with my "spooky" behavior, kept me from going off half-cocked with your logic and your devotion to scientific evidence, let me know that I should endeavor to persevere, that my heart will go on.””

Post Amor Fati Mulder likes to embellish “friendship” (and not NOT love) letters to Scully with their best lines, while weaving in some from random movies he’s watched. It’s very him; and isn’t NOT (but not) a confession letter. 

Amy Schatz’s

Take Your Memory With You When You Go

““Scully looked from one side of the room to the other, and then leaned close to him, as if she had a big secret to tell.  Finally, she whispered, "We're not accruing."

She had lost her mind.  Mulder was quite certain of it now.  Something had snapped inside her brain.  Looney Toons weren't just cartoons for her anymore.

"We're not accruing," he repeated, trying to figure out how he would get her to consent to going to a mental hospital.  "Scully, if this is some strange way of getting me to do more of the case reports? or? or your taxes, or something, I think it would be better just to ask me."

But Scully was all business.””

S7 Scully has apparently lost her mind. Mulder is panicking until she points out everything they do has no purpose. After a spiral into their files, they realize not only do they achieve nothing they also repress even more.

Pteropod’s Thirty-four Minutes in the Life of Brain

““Why do you assume I wouldn't just go to the video store on a lonely Friday night and decide to rent it for myself?"

"Is that what happened?"

"Nope."

-- 11:17am --

"Why did you ask?”"

The Life of Brian’s theme song gets stuck in S7 Mulder’s head-- and he shares the ear worm with his on-the-down-low secret girlfriend Scully. It’s all worth it when he gets her to admit she liked the movie. 

Alelou’s (Xanadu) Continuity  

““Doctor:  Not worried that you're carrying an alien baby anymore, then? 

Scully:  Oh well, you know.  Que sera sera.”” 

This is simply a fic lamp shading all the flaws in Per Manum. 

@drbedeliadumaurier/heartsfilthylesson‘s isolated systems (Ao3) 

““Scully,” he says without taking his eyes off his mobile, their pizza cooling on the coffee table. Sometimes she misses his slideshows because they never interrupted dinner. “Look at this.” 

It’s a poorly drawn frog, both human-like and not.... “What’s this?”

The corner of Mulder’s lips curve in one of those I-thought-you’d-never-ask smiles. Scully already regrets it. “It’s a Rare Pepe.”” 

S11 Mulder deadpans about the Pepe Meme conspiracy. Scully’s over it. 

There we go! 

Enjoy! 

[aaronymous999]

I’m sure this has been talked about to death but the third X-Men movie ( I believe it’s The Last Stand-? ) is such a blatant disability metaphor to me especially with the talks about “curing”. Some of the conversations are directly what I’d expect to hear from this discussion and it’s kinda interesting.

For example, characters like Storm insists that there’s nothing to cure, but characters like Rogue who have a mutation that makes it very hard for her to live has a different outlook. I really like how the movie makes it clear that it was her choice and she wasn’t just doing it for Bobby by the way. To me this storyline does not work with a racial, jewish or LGBTQ metaphor, and if you assigned those metaphors to this storyline it would make zero sense. I think the X-Men are more than a racial metaphor like some assume and I think honestly the metaphor changes depending on the storyline. I think most often it’s a Jewish and racial metaphor, but sometimes it’s a disability or LGBTQ metaphor and I enjoy the variation :3

Also not saying this is the best way this storyline could be handled the way it was written just reminds me of conversations I’ve seen before, this is your friendly reminder that a lot of disabled people don’t want a “cure” and have been living the way they have for so long that it would actually be detrimental to suddenly change to a different way of living! Some disabled people would like a hypothetical “cure” and some don’t and both of those are okay! Generally though the idea that ALL disabled people want “cures” is very prevalent in media and it’s kinda annoying which is why in writing advice you often see that you shouldn’t “cure” your disabled characters.

To clarify I’m not disabled- ( physically at least- technically mentally but it doesn’t impair my life enough that I’m comfortable calling it a disability, that’s me personally though however someone wants to label themselves is up to them! ) and this opinion will forever be bare bones until I hear the opinion of a disabled person and their thoughts on the matter. I think this movie didn’t actually handle it as poorly as they could of, because unlike other media it’s a complex issue. Mutants against the “cure” are very right in a lot of ways and the government is certainly being predatory here, but the Mutants on the other side of the coin do have a point for them personally. Because for a lot of them, as seen in the comics, mutations can literally be life or death and ruin all their relationships because y’know. They kill the people they touch. But there’s also more complex things in between here, like Angel being forced a “cure” and having non-mutants speak for his needs. And I imagine there’s also mutants who want a cure solely to be accepted by society. Lots of little interesting things in here, and to a lot of Mutants this could also be seen as straight up genocide, which may seem odd for me to bring up but in the perspective of a character like Storm, the government views Mutants as a DISEASE. And wants all of them to no longer be mutants, which could also be seen as a jewish metaphor as well. Just in this case they aren’t killing mutants, they’re removing a core aspect of them. It’s just a muddled issue in this movie because some mutants legitmately want the “cure” while others view it as drastic as genocide.

Idk it’s just an interesting movie viewed on a metaphorical lense, I’ve always been interested in minority metaphors and issues because well I am a few of them lmao- so this movie had a lot for me to chew on! If I’ve gotten anything wrong though please correct me! My mind is always open! :D

( Also want to clarify that again not disabled- the X-Men franchise is not very good with disability representation as it is so take this with a bucket of salt. Charles Xavier in particular, at least from the opinions I’ve seen online is often a genius wheelchair user stereotype to a lot of people- and also he’s NEVER played by an actual wheelchair user or physically disabled actor. Not all characters need to be played by an actor that shares part of their identity but here it’s kind of annoying because wheelchair users are NEVER played by wheelchair users and Charles Xavier is arguably one of the most iconic wheelchair users in fiction. Also Magneto is never played by a jewish man which BOTHERS ME SO MUCH YOU HAVE NO IDEA… )

“ I’d like to change my mind and would like to raise five Axolotls by February 2024 rather than aquatic fish. I should name them after famous genius’ or algorithms and or mathematical equations. I’d want successful breeding phases if it happens. This means I would have to make time for study and research to understand how to raise them right to allow them to live the greatest life span that they could have. I’d want generations of baby Axolotl to grow, thrive and procreate as a preference. Depending on the variety and options that are available to pick or choose in the local aquarium store should I have Axolotls in the fish tank by February, 2024. Black and Nude. Food to temperature. The right Filter and light to the correct ph levels accompanied with chemicals to regulate the water once it happens. To also add an air pump to provide oxygen to the water inside a fish tank. I could inclusively add and place my ceramic art inside as a feature(s) to show the creativity that I have to show and share. If they procreate, I’d probably need another fish tank to monitor baby Axolotls and or when cleaning the fish tank(s). The filtration system(s) has to be strong enough to clean and to also prevent any baby Axolotls going into the filter. I believe constant monitoring is probably required everyday to allow successful live Axolotls to flourish each day. I’d have to be prepared for any circumstances regarding the life of the Axolotls. If their life is in jeopardy, I’d have to prevent the situation or the worse from happening. With the correct research and asking questions to the Aquarium staff assists with the proper, correct and right way at raising live Axolotls. Say cheese! (They have a smile that could steal the show!). What genius names should I pick and choose? Hmm, totally depends on my taste and preferences.”
