Gotta love the Young Avengers posts that are like:

"❤The Young Avengers❤

Kamala - Riri

Kate - Yelena

Billy - Tommy

Kid Loki - Peter"

Yelena? Peter? Riri? Are just all new people part of the Young Avengers now? I swear every time I look they're adding someone else! Who's next Skaar?

Queens could, of course, be involved in more overtly worldly patronage, often in an intercessory role. A well-documented example is the involvement of the Mercers' Company of London with Elizabeth Woodville in the late 1470s. The queen first interceded for the merchants in 1478, regarding a "fraye" between the king's servants and some London citizens. By December 1479 the company had a much more serious problem; it owed the king an onerous sum for non-payment of its subsidy, and for its alleviation it looked to both Elizabeth and the king's chamberlain (William, Lord Hastings). From the beginning the queen's abilities were recognized as exceptional, not only by the company but by Hastings, who encouraged the merchants to cultivate her rather than himself. In January 1480, after the merchants had given "grete lawde & thanke" to their court connections, including Thomas Grey and "the lord Ryvers", they reported that Hastings had cautioned them "to be more secrete of theyre frendes and that non avaunt be made who that is frendly and laboureth for us Except the quenes good grace oonly, whiche that is, & always hath ben, oure verrey good & gracious lady in the said mater & c.". Evidently dealing with the queen alone would get the company into less political trouble than open lobbying of her relatives -- an indication, perhaps, that Elizabeth was not considered one and the same with "the Woodvilles".

By 8 January 1480, the queen had managed to convince Edward to forgive 500 marks (£333 6s. lOd.) of the fine, and the company decided that she was their most promising option; four days later the fine was further reduced by the same amount.

making an au but now im wondering . is the voice of the hero the rebirth of the long quiet from the previous time the princess "reset" the world?

thats why he wants to save her?

thats why he initially doesnt trust the narrator?

is that why he tells you to take the knife when you see her at the end, so that the cycle continues?

i think what's really getting me about kozma claiming to have blown up the moon and also claiming to "be" the breach and basically equating "breach collaborators" and "my allies" in the same speech is that. the breach operative we've known since season one, the person who "is" the breach as far the story's concerned, is saskia. and midst is saskia's HOME! she built the black candle with her own two hands (metaphorically, at the very least), she LOVES it there and she loves those people :( and if we take kozma's story at face value, she just threw the "centerpoint" (according to imelda) of her own operation entirely under the bus and endangered the lives not only of innocent people but also of a bunch of her own operatives without their knowledge just to destabilize the trust and frankly that makes me kind of hope she IS telling the truth simply because that's the kind of betrayal i find absolutely delicious,

i recently learned about the taylor posing with swastika guy picture and havent known peace since.

Double shift last weekend and this is the only picture I got (which my coworker actually took with me for her Facebook story RIGHT when I looked like shit and it was low effort makeup day because I had to be there early to open the bar)

The most openly bratty/fussy Alhaitham anyone can ever get is when he is sick, send tweet-

thinking so hard abt the little rebellion of district 12’s silence when katniss volunteers for prim and their funeral salute to her..

cooooolcoolcoolcoolcoolcoolcool. i went to my friend to ask why she didnt invite me and she said multiple things that just. made it worse :)

there's some sort of feeling i'm having about having a dm who's both encouraging me to be as insane about my character as i want and will likely actually use the things i give her for him

I loved your tags in the post about Joel and Ellie and saving the world! I think you're very right. It's not about the love for a child, but in general a love for a person. For a brother. For a husband. You name it. I would do the same for my wife because there is nothing more important than her, regardless of whether or not the cure would have worked. Do you think you would do the same for the people you love?

I, like Joel, am not a hero. I’m a person who largely only gets by BECAUSE I have people I love, who love me, to keep the world from feeling utterly bleak. So, uh. If it came down to the world or my wife? The world or my younger sibling? Yeah. I get his choice.

trying to get cat advice between family members is exhausting cause like literally all of them are misinformed to some degree
