something that i think people don't understand abt manifesting is that you really need to forget abt the "how"
i want to share something that happened recently at work. as many of you know, im working my dream job that i manifested in the void. the coworkers are great, the pay is amazing, i do like the work im doing and i manifested being really good at it too BUT recently i kind of hit a block mentally. there wasn't really anything i disliked and i couldn't even explain what i felt and why i felt this way.
i talked to some friends but all they could suggest is getting a new job but that wasn't it either.
anyways i know LOA and i can even enter the void. i didn't enter the void for this issue because i didn't know what i wanted so one night, when i was contemplating this entire issue, i decided no more. i just knowingly told myself that i would start loving my job and did SATS for it.
within the next day, a coworker announced she was moving to a different company. and by coworker, i meant a huge boss. this threw our entire company into a frenzy and it was determined that my department was to take on some of her stuff. all of us had our responsibilities moved around and i got some new tasks.
these new tasks are so fun! and i also came into realization as to what was troubling me. i work in data analytics, meaning i look at all my company's data and i analyze trends or anything else people need. i manifested being insanely good at coding and having an easy time with projects so i really like this job but i kinda didn't see any results of my work. i would do all this work and then hand it off to someone and just start doing something else. however, one of my new responsibilities is actually seeing what happens with my data, seeing what people do with it, and I'm now able to directly speak to some people in meetings and such and emphasize my thoughts. when i first manifested everything in the void, it was coming from a girl who was pretty insecure and shy and liked to keep to herself. im still an introvert (ig that never really leaves you) but now im way more confident and ig i really wanted to talk to people and push my ideas more.
not to mention, these new responsibilities opened up a whole new coworker circle for me. don't get me wrong, i love my coworker friends but it's always fun to meet newer people and i met some really nice people who are changing the way i think professionally but are also great people in general.
i also got my equipment upgraded and i never realized how annoying my old equipment was until i experienced the new equipment.
anyways i could go on and on but the point im trying to make is "don't worry about the how." i literally didn't even know why i was feeling down and if you had asked me before if that coworker would be leaving, i would have said no. she's been working there for 20+ years and she always loved her job and had amazing benefits so no one saw this coming, but i did talk to her and she said she always wanted to try a different industry and she finally got the opportunity. not to mention, my department and her department aren't even closely related. ig my department knows a little bit of everyone's stuff because we look at everyone's data but we were totally blindsided when we were first told thar we were the ones that were going to help take over, esp such a high level person's job.
this is a side story but one night, i just really wanted some cookies. ig i was having midnight munchies but the cookies were 25 miles away and there was just no way it was happening. anyways i fell asleep knowing that i was going to get the cookies the next day and i was just thinking of doordash or grabbing them myself but when i woke up, the cookies were on the kitchen table. before everyone starts hating and asking how those cookies appeared out of nowhere, apparently my friend was in the area and thought of me so she grabbed me some as soon as they opened and left it on my kitchen table.
so seriously, stop worrying about the how and what ifs and just go straight to your desire.

ᴘᴀᴄ- ᴡʜAT ɪs ᴍᴀɴɪғᴇsᴛɪɴɢ ʏᴏᴜ?
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
ᴘɪʟᴇ 𝟷
Before I start, I want to let you know that letter C,B and J seems important. A new mindset awaits for you to manifest it. You have ended something that you wished to end for a long time. You had the choice to stay and accept the bare minimum or move on as you wished. You were burnt out and ran away from reality instead of facing it. You felt heavily trapped and your surroundings reflected your worsened mental health. Which could be that you didn’t care about cleanliness or there was no routine to keep you healthy, everything screamed chaos and out of place. You even ran away from the fact that your body needs rest and your health will go down the drain if you didn’t pause for awhile. Sometimes we have to take tough decisions and it’s a bittersweet feeling but once you relax in your everyday life, you will realise how badly you were in need of this pause. It’s important to move on and experience new situations, one never evolves by staying in one place. Also a change of air or change of scenery will be good if you go for it. You can even try to change/move your interiors and clean the space to feel a shift in energy if you feel stagnant. Stagnation makes you think, movement only decides action. Numbers 4 and 10 seems significant, it could be that you are facing this situation either at home (shifting homes) or your work place (change of job). Anyway, you will be forced into this period of recovery if you did not take it yourself. You might have not wanted it in the ways it came to you but if you keep an open mind then you’ll be able to see why it happened.
ᴘɪʟᴇ 2
New relationships manifests you. You’ve either taken the blame for someone in the past or you let someone dig your ground while looking at them. You treated someone like a family and they did no good to you. Even though you find yourself alone rn, it will only be for a short period of time. I see that you will not sulk or think of yourself as a victim instead you’ll stand up for your actions and see what went wrong and why. You’ll decode the reason behind the pattern of betrayal others did to you. You are taking control of your mind and you will feel like a leader in your life who has planned everything after a lot of trials and came up with a solid attitude to approach life. No one can toy with you or your emotions. Since you’ll do the shadow work, you will attract like minded friends who balance you out in the most genuine way. You could be have the most fun time of your life with them now because whenever you’re with them, it’s party all the time and it doesn’t feel forced or you just do everything to entertain them. It won’t be one sided as it used to be, you will probably not remember anyone from the past because your new friend circle is goals. Numbers 3,4,5& and 6 came in sequence so I feel you are stepping up in life and not falling back or letting past hold you back.
ᴘɪʟᴇ 3
This group is interesting firstly when I pulled the cards, it was a mix of pile 1 and pile 2. But the msg was entirely different. Something new and unique is manifesting you. You could come up with an invention out of the blue. It can be a recipe, a new theory or a sudden realisation which alters your life completely. Mostly probably, you’ve been working on something for a significant amount of time and it’s magic can finally be seen. Obviously when you come with an invention, there are more critics than supporters, however you will feel proud. This creative approach or even a unique way of thinking will make people recognise you. People will notice you for this unique approach because it’s something mind boggling lol. You went through a lot of challenges on the way to this success but no one can see it and that’s why don’t let their judgments affect you. However, this is not a magic once done will do the rest of the thing on its own, this magic, this new idea or whatever it is, requires consistency, don’t get lazy or pessimistic, it’s the time to keep going on. This unique thing could even be to find a flaw in a theory or law which already exists but no one ever noticed a flaw until now. September can be the month, when it happens. A side msg that I kept getting- what you are manifesting, is manifesting you too.

The Throne of Glass world no longer exists.
It was destroyed by the Asteri to create Midgard.
[Spoilers for Throne of Glass, ACOTAR, and Crescent City]
Many thousands of years ago, and prior to the Asteri's invasion of Midgard, there existed another civilisation. Part of this civilisation lived in a place called Parthos.
More specifically, when asked what the Crescent City world was before the Asteri's reign, Tharion noted that "ancient humans and their gods dwelled here."
An exact description of the Throne of Glass world.
Tumblr media
Interestingly, despite the Crescent City books mentioning other continents (such as Pangera), readers are only given a map of Lunathion.
This is particularly strange, as all other SJM books have provided a full world map.
So, why would this be hidden for Crescent City...?
Tumblr media
As such, I theorise that Midgard is actually the Throne of Glass world; hence why a full map has not yet been revealed.
Thus, I believe that following the events of Kingdom of Ash, some years later, the Asteri showed up and destroyed their world. The result of this was the creation of Midgard, and subsequently Lunathion - the world Bryce inhabits today.
The Timeline.
Evidently, this theory suggests that the timeline between the ACOTAR, CC and TOG worlds are not simultaneous, but rather that Throne of Glass occurred in the past - many thousands of years ago.
When considering this possibility, some rebut that this cannot be possible, as Aelin fell through worlds - right past Velaris and Lunathion. However, there is nothing to suggest that Aelin didn't also fall through time.
In fact, there are a multitude of hints throughout the various SJM books to suggest that time travel, or time manipulation, is indeed possible:
When the Asteri lured people into Midgard, it is said they offered a hand through "space and time."
Tumblr media
The Harp, when used, can transport people through "space and eons." In fact, the 26th string is time itself - but what happens when a full melody is played?
Tumblr media
Merrill straight up suggests that all of the worlds overlap - sharing the same space, but are separated by time. Almost as if it suggests that ACOTAR, CC and TOG are in the same 'world,' but manifestations of differing time periods; the past (TOG), the present (ACOTAR), and the future (CC).
Tumblr media
Most importantly, when Bryce lands in Prythian, she starts to wonder if she had travelled in time; or, if this new world occupies a different time period (the exact concept that Merrill just suggested...)
Tumblr media
Further, in her most recent interview, SJM was asked whether time travel would play a part in future books. SJM mysteriously replied, "no spoilers."
Thus, if this theory is correct, and Throne of Glass is indeed set in the past, then it is perhaps no coincidence that "Midgard" is the Norse name for "Earth."
And that "Terrasen" means "Old Earth."
Parthos.
As previously mentioned, a portion of the civilisation that used to inhabit Midgard (and as this theory suggests, the TOG characters) resided in an ancient city called Parthos.
As readers, we are first offered a glimpse of Parthos when Apollion takes Bryce to a "dream world" - a landscape in which the Great Library of Parthos used to be.
When in this dream world, Bryce notes that what remains of Parthos is a "DUSTY plain."
Tumblr media
Interestingly, in the ACOTAR world, the Bone Carver mentioned that the world he (and his siblings) came from is now nothing more than "DUST drifting across a plain."
Tumblr media
As the Bone Carver mentions this, Feyre notes that he draws three interlocking circles into the ground.
This is the exact symbol of Bryce's Archesian necklace - which is also the symbol of Parthos.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
If this theory is correct, then the Bone Carver originated from Parthos - from the Throne of Glass world.
Considering the similarities between the Bone Carver and the Sin Eater (the absent God-like being in the TOG world who quite literally carved bones, and was known as the 'God of Truth')... it makes perfect sense.
Tumblr media
However, the most telling clue of all, that connects everything together, is this;
Knowing that Parthos is referred to as a "dusty" plain, consider Rowan's words to Aelin:
"I love you. There is no limit to what I can give to you, no time I need. Even when this world is a FORGOTTEN WHISPER OF DUST between the stars, I will love you."
Tumblr media
Why would the world Aelin and Rowan inhabit ever turn into a "forgotten whisper of dust"? Just like Parthos?
Because IT IS Parthos.
It is the world the Asteri destroyed to create Midgard.
Asteri Archives.
As even further proof, recall that when Bryce entered the Asteri's archive rooms at the end of CC2, she found notes on how Midgard came to be.
These notes stated that the "indigenous life was not sustainable" for the Asteri.
Tumblr media
If this theory is correct, this suggests that the "indigenous" lives were the Throne of Glass humans, and that they did not possess enough magic (or first-light) to feed the Asteri.
We already know this is true, as it was a similar problem that the Valg previously faced.
Additionally, on the exact same page of the notes that detail the Asteri's invasion of Midgard, there is a sketch of both a wolf shifter, and a mer.
Tumblr media
The wolf shifters and the mer are the two species confirmed to be the Throne of Glass fae.
So, it begs the question; why were the Throne of Glass fae explicitly mentioned on the Asteri's Midgard (pre-colonisation) notes...?
The Southern Continent.
If Midgard is built on the ruins of the Throne of Glass world, then I believe that Lunathion is situated on the Southern Continent (the setting of the TOG book, Tower of Dawn).
More specifically, as Lunathion is said to be modelled after an "ancient city," I believe it is modelled after the famed Southern Continent City - Antica.
In Tower of Dawn, Antica is described as a city surrounded by a wall, lined with "olive groves" and "wheat farms" bordering the city.
Tumblr media
Lunathion is described in the exact same way:
Tumblr media
Further, both Lunathion and Antica have "arid" climates:
Lunathion:
Tumblr media
Antica:
Tumblr media
And, most notably, both are surrounded by deserts; a unique geographical feature that is not prominently featured in other SJM settings.
Tumblr media
As such, this suggests that the lost library of Parthos, is the Torre Cesme.
Perhaps the most sacred building in the entirety of the Throne of Glass world, the Torre Cesme is home to a huge library - one that is said to be the oldest.
Tumblr media
In the present day, Jesiba Roga guards the remaining books that were once held in the library of Parthos (or, in the Torre Cesme library).
Prior to the end of CC1, Jesiba kept these books locked away in her store, Griffin Antiquities. Interestingly, a set of "glaring owl eyes" had been placed on the store to Jesiba's shop.
Tumblr media
Owl's are the symbol of Silba, and the healers of the Torre Cesme.
Further, considering that Yrene's healing abilities are the exact same as Bryce's Starborn powers - could this explain why Jesiba looked like she had "seen a ghost" when she first beheld Bryce's Starborn light?
Such a notion makes even more sense when you consider that Hypaxia's tutor was brought back to life using necromancy, and was originally an inhabitant of Parthos.
Hypaxia states that this tutor specifically trained her in healing magic; just like the healers of the Torre Cesme.
Tumblr media
In fact, the scene of Hypaxia removing the Kristallos venom is near identical to Yrene removing the Valg parasite from Chaol:
Tumblr media
Lidia Cervos.
Speaking of necromancy, knowing that Hypaxia's family dabbles in such magic calls into question the identify of Lidia, Hypaxia's half-sister.
Is she Aelin Galathynius, brought back to life?
Or, perhaps she is a child of Aelin and Rowan, brought back to life?
Not only do Lidia and Aelin look near identical,
Tumblr media
Not only is Lidia represented by flame (Aelin's power),
But her shifted form is that of a deer; that sacred animal of Terrasen. Even her last name "Cervos" is a type of female deer.
Lidia is also seen wearing a "gold ring, crowned with a square, clean-cut ruby." This is the exact description of the ring Aelin have to Rowan when they married.
Further, Ruhn also suggests that Lidia must be an Asteri, or as old as one, given the way she uses language. However, as Lidia is only 47, this makes no sense.
However, it makes perfect sense if Ruhn is actually talking to Aelin, or Aelin's child; someone who, according to this theory, existed many thousands of years ago.
(And, as a side note - given that Lidia looks like the "spitting image" of Luna, and that Luna's sacred animal is the Stag... could it be that Luna is Aelin? And that Lunathion was named after her?)
Connections.
Is it then perhaps no coincidence that one of the houses of Lunathion is the "House of Flame and Shadow." Aelin was known as the "Queen of Flame and Shadow."
In fact, Throne of Glass being the past world of Crescent City explains a plethora of connections:
The "Stag King" of Avallen.
Ruhn being named after the Ruhnn mountains.
Why so many CC places sound like TOG places (Morrah = Morath, Korinth = Orynth).
The witches worshipping the same "three-faced goddess."
Why wyrdmarks can be found everywhere (especially underwater, where some of the ruins of the "ancient civilisation" are said to lie).
It also explains the "World of Throne of Glass" book, which to this day, mysteriously remains unpublished.
Tumblr media
According to SJM, the World of Throne of Glass is an "encyclopedia" that documents the full history of the Throne of Glass world. Written by a "grumpy librarian," SJM stated that it will "feel like a book you can pull off the shelves of an ancient library."
It's almost as if the World of Throne of Glass is a Parthos book in itself...
Is that why it remains unreleased?
Future books.
If this theory is correct, some may wonder how SJM could possibly include TOG characters if they are indeed dead.
I believe there are two viable options:
The "rewrite history" route:
In a future multiverse book series, the main characters of CC and ACOTAR would team up, and using the Harp/Horn (or perhaps the full power of the Dread Trove), they would go back in time. In doing so, they would join forces with the TOG characters, and stop the Asteri from ever overthrowing their world.
If successful, it would mean that the Dusk Court was never destroyed. At present, Bryce is hinted to be the ruler of this court... but it doesn't exist (and there isn't a lot of time to rebuild an entire city). However, if time manipulation was used... no rebuilding would be necessary.
It would also explain why the Oracle told Ruhn that the "royal bloodline will end" with him - as Midgard would never be created, the same applies for the Autumn King's reign.
The "escape" route:
Alternatively, perhaps when the Asteri arrived in the TOG world, some of the main characters were able to escape into other worlds - such as Prythian.
This would explain why so many of the characters in the ACOTAR and TOG worlds share many similarities (for example, Tamlin as the ancestor of Aedion and Lysandra...)
Tumblr media
This would also explain why so many of the ACOTAR character's last names have been hidden from the reader.
Some characters may have escaped elsewhere too, such as Hel...
Tumblr media
(^ This is more of a crack theory, but there's only two characters in the SJM universe who have "freakishly" blue eyes, can shape shift into any form they choose, and have powers that manifest as cold...)
However, no matter the method of saving the world, or storyline adopted, Aelin said it best herself:
"This world will be saved and remade by the dreamers."

What's 'Star Wars' about?
A while ago I got an 'Ask' that concluded with "what is Star Wars about, if not the Jedi, right?" And weirdly enough... I have to disagree.
I mean... to me? Yes. Star Wars is about the Jedi. A Jedi-less, Sith-less, lightsaber-less Star Wars movie or series will struggle to get me on board (which is why I was surprised that I loved Andor so much).
But if you read everything George Lucas said, if you think about the Jedi's place in his two trilogies... they're not front and center, right?
Sure, there's Luke Skywalker... but he's a learner, in the Original Trilogy. Same goes for Anakin Skywalker and Obi-Wan Kenobi, in the Prequels. They're going through character arcs.
Otherwise, the Jedi are either used as mentors to the protagonist...
Tumblr media
... or to deliver exposition...
Tumblr media
... but they're mostly vectors Lucas uses to present his thesis.
Tumblr media
Functionally-speaking, the Jedi are important in that they embody the Buddhist philosophies the movie's themes are based on.
But when it comes to the plot, they're secondary. That's because the the themes of these films are bigger than the Jedi themselves.
So the question becomes... what's are the themes?
Tumblr media
The primary goal of the Star Wars films is to inspire kids to start thinking outside the box and teach them a set of values and psychological motifs that have been passed down through mythology and fairy tales.
These values can be summed up in the dichotomy between greed and compassion / selfishness and selflessness / pleasure and joy.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
We all have both aspects and need to strike a balance between the two. After all, being greedy ultimately comes from fear and being afraid can happen to all of us. Problem is, unchecked fear can lead to anger, hate and a whole lot of suffering.
The more selfish you are, the more you want things and the more you're afraid that you'll lose everything you have, you'll get angry when someone tries to take it and that will hurt everyone around you.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
In other words, fear is the path to the tempting/addictive Dark Side.
Thus, seeing as we'll be inevitably tempted by the Dark Side and give in at some point (because nobody's perfect), we should aim to be as selfless and compassionate as possible for our own good... but also for the greater good, because we're all connected to a life energy. You can call it Qi or God; in Star Wars it's known as the Force.
As such, we all form a symbiotic circle and working with that in mind is better than putting ourselves first and draining from everything and everyone around us.
But we also need to be careful because there will be people who give in to that selfish side and will try to control everything. When the time comes, we must stand up for what's right.
So that's Lucas' thesis.
If I had to sum them up, the six movies illustrate it as follows:
The Prequel Trilogy is about the consequences of greed, explored through Anakin on a smaller scale and the Senate on a larger one.
The Original Trilogy shows the triumph of compassion, through Luke, Leia & Han and the Rebellion's fight against the Empire.
Tumblr media
Lucas talked about it multiple times, the Prequels are about how Anakin becomes Darth Vader and how the Republic becomes the Empire, and in both those cases, it happens because they're greedy.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The Senate is greedy in the more classical sense. They could give a shit about "symbiosis", no they're taking bribes, letting corporations dictate policy, using loopholes to keep themselves in power and halting any meaningful progress out of fear that the new status quo will conflict with their own self-serving goals.
Anakin's greed manifests in a different way. He turns to the Dark Side because of his attachment. He wants to stop Padmé from dying... but not because he wants to save her, rather he wants to save himself from feeling the pain of loss again and will do anything to not have to live without her, her own wishes and the natural cycle of life and death be damned.
In both cases, they cave under pressure orchestrated by Palpatine, but nobody puts a gun to their head. They make a deliberate choice that comes from a selfish place, and neither one takes personal responsibility for it, they blame others, the Separatists in the case of the Senate and the Jedi in Anakin's case.
The Republic becomes an Empire with thunderous applause, betraying the people it was meant to protect.
Tumblr media
And when faced between doing something he knows is right and giving in to his selfish desires...
Tumblr media
... Anakin elects to do the latter, thus betraying his family and leaving the Force in darkness.
Tumblr media
These selfish choices impact the galaxy as a whole, including the only characters in the trilogy who were doing their best to be compassionate and live in symbiosis: the Jedi, Padmé and Bail.
These champions of the Light Side are stuck playing catch-up or helplessly witnessing the events unfold, throughout the trilogy. They're playing by the rules and Palpatine uses this to his advantage.
Thus, as the galaxy tears itself apart because of Palpatine's manipulations, the Jedi and Bail are ignored and gradually weakened until they're either rendered irrelevant or killed.
Tumblr media
A new order is born, one built on blood, lies and greed: the Empire.
But a new hope remains.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
While before, the Jedi and people like Bail stood alone as everything around them became willfully corrupt... now, a Rebellion inspired by their legacy has banded together to overthrow the current order. But they don't fight for power or personal glory, they fight for altruistic, compassionate reasons. There's a sense of general responsibility that moves them, they're all doing their part.
Tumblr media
On a larger scale, we focus on the Rebels, who are tired of seeing people suffer and decided this needs to stop. They have gone from being passive, to proactive.
On a more personal scale, we see the evolution of Luke, from naive farmer to a hero, and guess what? More and more selfish people - like Han or Lando - are inspired to join the Rebellion, after seeing the exploits of Luke, Leia, or even Ben.
It all culminates in the final film, wherein:
The Rebels band together with the Ewoks - literal teddy bears whom the Empire, in their arrogance, never even considered to be a threat - to destroy the Second Death Star and free the galaxy from imperial tyranny.
Tumblr media
At the same time, Emperor Palpatine pressures Luke, who is tempted by the Dark Side like his father was.
But instead of giving in to his selfish desire to kill Darth Vader for all the horrors he's done...
Tumblr media
... he finds the strength to rise above it, instead showing compassion for his father, which, in turn, inspires Anakin to do the same.
Tumblr media
He faces a choice, like he did in Palpatine's office, two decades prior...
Tumblr media
... and this time he chooses right.
Children teach you compassion. Anakin lets go of his fear and anger, and saves his son at the cost of his own life, finally bringing balance back to the Force.
Good triumphed over evil. Its champions achieved victory by being selfless, hopeful and fighting together / helping each other.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
And that's it, that's how the movies thematically tie together.
As you can see, the Jedi aren't that directly impactful on the overall plot, because it revolves around Anakin, Luke and the respective factions/institutions around them.
But what the Jedi do bring to the table is their ability to teach and inspire others, both in-universe and out. They're spiritually impactful.
The Jedi are the epitome of compassion, and it's partially through them that George Lucas teaches his values to the audience.

Hey Upper East Siders. Want to play a game…? One condition, this time you HAVE to play by the rules. Or it’s game over…
- XoXo, Gossip Girl 💋 💌
Tumblr media
And who am i? That’s one secret i’ll never tell, You know you love me - XoXo, Gossip Girl 💋 💌
————————————————————————————————————————
♥️🖤♥️🖤♥️🖤♥️🖤♥️🖤♥️🖤♥️🖤♥️🖤♥️🖤
————————————————————————————————————————
Hey Upper east siders.
It’s that time of year again. When the sleigh bells are jingling and people add more items to their never ending wish list.What if i told you…it’s more than just a wish list.Ever wanted something so bad that you would do ANYTHING to get it? Well luckily, i’m not talking about signing a contract in blood. You don’t even have to lift a finger, nor shed any blood…or tears. You can have everything you’ve ever wished for.You just have to play a little game. Will you accept this dance…? If the answer is yes…keep on reading.
Now that we’re nice and ready. We can get started on this super quick and fun journey. If i didn’t say this earlier, GOSSIP GIRL HERE!! and i have the BIGGEST news ever! YOU will have entered/woke up in the void state within a week and manifested your dream life! Maybe you’ll do it in less than a week, and have a holly jolly Christmas XoXo. Just depends on how determined you are.
You know what happens if you aren’t…right? There are two outcomes. Let’s go over them shall we..?
“Will you have this dance..?” “No”
(Option A)
SPOTTED: Lonely Boy. Can’t believe they didn’t want their dream life, only in exchange for a little persistence. How tragic……And EVERYONE is talking. Wonder what Blair Waldorf thinks. If only they knew how easy life was…
“Will have you this dance…?” “Yes”
(Option B)
SPOTTED: SPOTTED, On the steps of the Met: B. Looking perfect, as usual. Feeling perfect, as usual. Having everything they’ve ever wanted. So much for such little “work”. Did they really think they could just waltz over here and not manifest their dream life? So effortless, it’s almost funny.
So……Which do you choose?
(thought so)
Option B?! Good choice. Looks like Little J will have everything they want and a ticket to the inner circle. Why waste precious time dreaming when waking life is SO much better?
Luckily, your journey will be very short, and VERY sweet.
YOU’VE BEEN INVITED!
Serena Van Der Woodsen, your invitations just arrived. With strings attached. Come out, come out, wherever you are.
Tumblr media
Gossip Girl here…enough with the stalling. Now for the main event.
You will spend the next 7 days, accepting that you are a void master.
What is the void state?
Well well well. Look what we have here. An overcomplicator on our hands, caught red handed. (Just kidding, XoXo)
It’s a state of pure consciousness. When you are detached from your physical senses completely. You can’t hear, see, smell or feel anything. Must be heaven if your name is Dan Humphrey.
Did you know, that you enter the void state everytime you fall asleep? Shocked? Well don’t be. It’s nothing special. Things always work out for you after all, should be used to it by now. Doesn’t it feel weird to finally have Gossip Girl on YOUR side? Can’t wait to pry into your success soon……and write ALLLLLL about it. You better not disappoint me, you know what happens next. Don’t wanna end up like lonely boy……do you?
“But i don’t believe in the Void State.”
- Said no sane person ever. Unless your Queen B with a broken heart.
Here you go! 💋💌💋
Does little J want a virtual slap of common sense? Don’t tempt me. A few clicked pics of your journey home could turn into a journey to hell. You know you love me. XoXo.
How do I enter the void state?
(Here you go 💌💌💌)
Looks like entering the void state really IS sugar and spice and EVERYTHING nice after all.
Hear those silver bells? It’s a void master INCOMING!!!
Applying states for the void state:
(Here you go! 💋💌💋💌)
And everyone knows the biggest present comes in the smallest box………not so difficult after all.
Then there are those boxes you are SO glad you opened.
“Challenges” to apply:
EVERYONE knows that there’s no such thing as a “challenge”.
“Take one It Girl on a pedestal. Add a crowd eager to see her fall. And give them the means to knock her down. So sad how they know they’ll only be the ones who end up falling” - XoXo Gossip Girl
Is Queen B Feeling frustrated? : (Lotusmi’s void challenge)
Always finding your hands in your hair and your fist in the wall? Well this one’s for you! (💋 💋 💋)
Love complaining? Of course you do! Talk about a Blair Bitch Project.

Things that make Weirdmageddon a top-tier finale:
Every victory and ally the characters gain is essential to pursuing the next victory.
Dipper needed Wendy to reach the bubble, needed to talk down Gideon to reach Mabel, and needed to reconcile with Mabel to do anything. Then they needed to reach the Shack to get Shacktron, needed Shacktron to reach Ford, needed Ford and all their previous character development to build the Zodiac—oops! not enough character development! REVERSAL! But they still pulled out a win from having all four Pineses in the Fearamid, which wouldn't have been possible except as salvage from their previous victories.
It all builds really nicely—it's easy to get your characters running in circles to fit in enough action and/or screentime (see certain Classic Who serials), but that doesn't happen here.
Personal issues and plot problems were interwoven in a way that genuinely made resolving the former a basic step in resolving the latter.
The big problems at the start of the finale were the rift between Dipper and Mabel, the older, deeper rift between Stan and Ford, and... well, the Rift. And Bill. The finale is able to resolve all of these things together because it is, in fact, crucial that the Pineses all be able to work together; they need each other to defeat Bill. This means that, for instance, Mabel and Dipper's reconciliation is the urgent first step on every level, personal and situational (neither of them will accomplish anything until Mabel's free), and that Stan and Ford's reconciliation is a necessary condition for the last step of beating Bill. It's seamless—no one has to take time out of the plot to talk about their feelings, because the plot can only move if their feelings are being addressed.
Even more, the action works in such a way that Stan and Ford have to show character growth to defeat Bill and the way they defeat Bill then results in healing for both of them (Stan gets to be a hero while Ford gets to let go of his hero complex).
Gave time to addressing the big themes and made them structurally important, too.
This ties in to the point above, but... the fact that Dipper and Mabel's conflict (the manifestation of a much longer-running tension of "is it possible to grow up and still be happy? is it possible to be sure we'll stay in a close and healthy relationship, and not lose each other?") is given its full weight. Dipper and Mabel have the conversation they need to convince themselves, each other, and the audience that this ghost has been expelled from their futures. That's big.
And the themes continue consistently throughout the finale! They answer the questions raised by Stan and Ford's estrangement—first through Dipper and Mabel and then repeatedly through the rest of the cast—with consistent reassurance and hope for the future. It's thematically sound. That's not easy to balance with plot progression in a way that makes sense, but like. The plot can only progress to a happy ending if these themes are tested and found to be true.
Plot development and emotional impacts hinged on information the audience already had.
When the finale revealed new information (the zodiac's function, for instance), it was almost always answering specific questions the show had previously raised for fans (what's that zodiac about??). Not always true—the barrier around the town was not foreshadowed—but a very high percentage of the time.
More, the moments with a big emotional punch hinge on us realizing something at the same time as the characters and sharing their reactions to that thing, rather than reacting to their reactions. That sounds clumsy, but you know what I mean—"Grammar, Stanley." Ford pulling out the memory gun. "Get off me, Waddles!" Ford holding out the picture of the Stan O' War. The finale builds on what we already know so strongly that we can react to good or bad events alongside the characters.
(Well, except for the exact moment revealing the twin switch, I guess. We are not having the same emotional reaction as Bill Cipher there. ;P)
A fully satisfying send-off.
After the plot is resolved, and even after the eucatastrophe moment of Stan getting his memory back, we get to stick around and see for sure that everything's okay. The twins turn thirteen. Stan and Ford plan to go sailing. Soos gets the Mystery Shack. Everyone in Gravity Falls is fine. Everyone gets to say goodbye. We end on repeated reassurances that the thing the story most highlighted as crucial but uncertain will, in fact, happen—that they'll stay a family and they'll all be happy.
I'm not saying every story needs to end with a wrap party, but it was the right move for Gravity Falls, and they nailed it.

Y'know I'm not going to go and argue with people but I'm. kinda weirded out by the "Shen Yuan's family was actually neglectful/awful/abusive" takes? Because we have a story where:
a point is made about cycles of violence and how abuse creates more abuse (with Qiu Jianluo - Shen Jiu - Bing-ge sequence).
a point is made about how the person can turn out very differently depending on their environment growing up (with differences between Bing-ge and Bing-mei).
And like... how does one look at those two points, then at Shen Yuan saying he had a loving family, and forgoes the obvious conclusion - that growing up in a stable home is what sets him apart in the world of PIDW (including from literal author of the world who is a lonely and embittered child of the divorce!) and allows him to change it with the power of love & kindness & bonding with people - in favor of deciding that his family was ~actually~ horrible?..
In that case, what makes him capable of breaking the cycle? Some kind of innate goodness or kindness? That, for some reason, no other character happened to possess? Right. Nice going completely devaluing Shen Jiu's tragedy.
To explain the last point: we get a lot of backstory for Shen Jiu, and the obvious takeaway from it is that he was not born a scum villain. That he did have a desire to do (and be) good, but it just couldn't flourish - because of a combination of terrible circumstances of his youth, his personal flaws, and the demands of the meta-narrative.
Thing is... two of those problems, he shares with Shen Yuan. Shen Yuan has his own personal flaws aplenty, even if they differ from Shen Jiu's, and a literal manifestation of the meta-narrative haunting him. But, unlike Shen Jiu, he happened to have a good family. That is their fundamental difference.
If one argues that Shen Yuan's family situation actually wasn't good, then what allows him to be so different from Shen Jiu? Isn't that saying that Shen Yuan was just a good person from the start... and Shen Jiu was just a bad person from the start? you know, the exact sentiment that made Shen Jiu give up on himself? And isn't it flattening Shen Jiu's story from a tragedy of a person who was broken out of his desire to do good by his terrible circumstances, into just 'a bad guy doing bad things because he's bad'? like, exactly what Airplane did to him in PIDW...
---
But, some of you may ask, don't we have evidence that Shen Yuan wasn't actually very happy in his past life?
Thing is, I don't disagree with that! I just think it didn't necessarily have anything to do with the quality of his home life.
For starters, having a loving family is not everything. Like, even if you just look at Maslow's pyramid, "love and belonging" is actually in the middle of the thing. Shen Yuan could have a perfectly fine, caring family and still be unfulfilled on "esteem" (recognition and respect from other ppl + personal feelings of accomplishment) and "self-actualization" (becoming the best possible version of himself) levels.
And that's before we factor in that he's a(n obviously if you read between the lines) queer dude who grew up in a country that criminalizes queerness which is something I don't see brought up a lot in discussions of the strength of his internalized homophobia, and the possibility that he is an undiagnosed neurodivergent person (i personally hc him as having adhd-I, i know there are also ppl with autistic headcanons, could be both, etc etc), and the influence of his social circle outside his family (cishet dudes on the forums, from what he know, so not the most positive and uplifting bunch)...
---
Lastly, while I think the thematic evidence from the first half of this meta is more telling, there are also a few small in-text details that prove Shen Yuan's words about how close-knit his family was.
First, the way he compares Yue Qingyuan to his older brothers in the very beginning, at the time he is still finding his footing and YQY is the one person looking out for him. (On the subject of SY!SQQ and YQY, just read this post, I won't be able to put it better.) Shen Yuan is explicitly "feeling at home in the atmosphere of brotherly love".
Second, the fact that we know he read his younger sister's danmei novels. On Shen Yuan's side, literally how committed he had to be to supporting his sister's interests, when we know from being in his head how determined he is about playing ostrich with anything and everything gay. No shit he spoiled her, I believe that one hundred percent. And on his sister's side, the level of trust she has towards her brother? Having full confidence that she could make him read gay bdsm and he wouldnt love her any less?..
---
So yeah, I think all signs point to Shen family being as close-knit and loving as Shen Yuan says.

One Love, Two Mouths
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Characters/Ships: Raiden Shogun (Puppet) x reader & Yaoshi x reader
Synopsis: Fawning over godly people with more limbs than the average person
Warnings: Smut written by a minor, multiple hands/arms, use of electro (puppet), size kink (puppet), fingering (both), some praise (Yaoshi)
A/N: Yaoshi is written with gn!terms. This idea has plagued me for so long & one of my last reblogs was my breaking point so enjoy :D
Tumblr media Tumblr media
“Hold still…”
The puppet’s aware of certain limitations that your body is unable to withstand. Too much electricity circulating in a human can prove to have fatal consequences. However, the puppet’s curiosity is far too great, and you happen to be the right person to sate it.
The Raiden shogun has waited for an opportunity such as this. Intimacy was not the intended purpose of this form, but neither party has complained about it thus far.
“Mortals can be far too easy to break. I wonder if you are any different.” For the sake of future enjoyment, she hopes for the latter.
She’ll manifest as many arms as she needs; big, electrifying hands pin you to a table as the puppet herself manhandles you in any position she pleases. The hands she summons are anything but ordinary. Each of them are alive on an elemental scale. Its “skin” flickers in electro currents—the raw energy subdued to a bearable sting.
The once nearly emotionless puppet observes you attentively as she lays to the right of you. When the first translucent finger penetrates your depraved cunt, the throbbing electro sensation pulsates against your walls.
It remains still. Perhaps the puppet is showing you mercy by letting you adjust. She leans over to press open mouthed kisses along your neck before it starts to move. The longer it thrusts, the more the puppet commands the size to enlarge. What was once one finger now became two. Two became three and the thickness of those three swelled within you. The puppet’s manifestations continued to hammer as the puppet’s own fingers moved to cup your breasts.
“You’re allowed to cum as many times as needed, but we won’t stop until I’m satisfied. Eventually, you will learn to value this power as much as I do
Tumblr media
Yaoshi would put all those hands to good use by pinning your back against their chest.
“You’re an obedient disciple of this path aren’t you? Devotion like this from such a cute human should be rewarded.”
Rope isn’t necessary when trapping you in their hold. Two hands spreading your legs, another two exploring your chest, one running up and down your waist and another tilts your chin back so they can kiss you.
Their slender fingers work inside you at a sensuous pace. Delicate skin and soothing eyes lull you into a dreamlike state. Yaoshi coos at your dreamy expression, deciding now is the time to start pressing the pad of their finger on your clit. “Relax, little one. Let yourself submit to the gaze of your aeon.”
Your hands, by their own accord, reach behind to circle around Yaoshi’s neck. If you were to graze their horns, they would stiffen but continue their sensual caresses. Their eyes glisten the further you arch into them. They find your reactions so cute, so worthy of their affection. They just have to kiss you gently because of it. When your breathing quickens and your flesh squeezes their fingers just right, they bite lovingly into your neck to mask their wavering self control.
Yaoshi smoothed over the bite mark to ease the pain and moves you to a different position. They must learn to control themself better, it’s far too early to walk the path of an unrestrained aeon.

what do they want you to know?
masterlist || paid services || ko-fi
Tumblr media
messages from spirit, a significant other,
passed loved one, etc.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
pile one
overall energy: king of swords
im sending masculine energy straight off the bat here. that doesn’t mean that the person is male per say, just that they give off more masculine energy than feminine. i think this could be someone that you used to talk to, and are possibly talking to again, or someone that you’ve just been having more contact with as of late. this person could have heavy air placements.
i think that there could have been a falling out at some point, and the blame is more so coming from their part. they feel guilty, and want you to let them back into your life. i think they could want a second chance if they get close enough, whether this be platonic or romantic. i think at some point during your separation you had a leveling up, and they definitely noticed that.
i think this is more of a message to say call back your power. if there was a choice that your gut has been forcing you to make, or an idea that won’t leave your head, then go for it. trust the voice in the back of your head when it tells you something. the only opinion about you that should be important to you is your own. the only person who you should need to be happy for you and routing for you is yourself. your own thoughts and opinions will make you feel more than anything anyone else says.
channeled messages: purple, black, self help, self sabotage, relationships, 555, masculine, karmic, meditate, reading, educate, progress, air signs, air placements, family, reliance, love, hugs,
pile two
overall energy: the tower
i think that you might have just come out of a hard period of your life. whether that be coming of age, heartbreak, grieving, etc. you’ve been through it for a while now, but you’ve finally come out of the worst end of it. i feel light, like a weight was taken off of my shoulders finally.
i think you should take some time to take care of yourself right now. stay in this unbothered phase for as long as you can. take note of how you feel, how your body feels, your emotions, etc. how do you feel day to day when you feel this good? enjoy it because i feel like there was a period when you wanted something so bad that you couldn’t let go of it. not being able to let go is going to be your worst enemy. the outcome you want will come so long as you affirm it. if you believe it will happen, then it will happen. don’t cry over spilled milk, there’s better things in store. step into you masculine energy. we all have it in us, there should be an equal amount of masculine and feminine. you have to balance out yours now. you may have gotten what you wanted, but thankfully, the work doesn’t stop here. start figuring out what it is you want out of life next.
you’re starting to take the time to figure out what it is that you want out of life exactly. you’re leveling up in a new way because you’re starting to learn what it is that life means to you. this beautiful energy needs to be accompanied by hard work though. it’s time to put in the extra work to get the things you really want.
channeled messages: yellow, release, 999, “leave the past in the past and start anew”, empath, meditation, manifestations, “you ask and you shall receive”, friends, self love
pile three
overall energy: the hierophant
i think you’re a very patient person. your someone who values their work and education heavily, you may even be interested in teaching as a profession. i feel like you’ve been in a beautiful time of your life for a while now, and you’re happier than you’ve ever been. there’s a certain relationship that could use some work possibly, as far as communication goes. im getting masculine energy from this but of course, that does not mean they are a male.
i think you’re protective over your energy in a very healthy way. it’s very hard to get into your inner circle but that’s because your energy is so special that you can’t afford to give it away that easily. i think someone around you really admires that. they love the way that you can stay unbothered and keep pushing forward towards your goals. you just seem to keep going up up up and they’re soooo proud of you. i honestly think you’re a little surprised by yourself as well. but soak in this feeling. enjoy the fruits of your labor. treat yourself, have fun. you DESERVE IT.
you don’t have to be so humble. you did something that many aspire to do, and many don’t have the courage to. you faced your demons and used the newfound strength to build yourself up into a new person. you didn’t change who you were, you just became assured in who you were. but i’ve never said that it was wrong to be a little vain sometimes. we all get to have our moments, you included. it doesn’t make you mean, it doesn’t make you stuck up, it just makes you confident. now im not saying flaunt it all the time, but do things out of the ordinary that are tailored to YOU and what YOU need. have a whole day dedicated to the things you want to do and how you want to take care of yourself. you deserve to enjoy the rewards you reaped from working so hard.
>>:((((( SPOIL YOURSELF!!!!!
channeled messages: green, 111, princess, lighting, mother yourself, follow your heart, you’ve made it, believe it, spoiled, im seeing the pinterest core with the sparkly dresses and designer handbags but it’s blurry and shit, solo dates, find inspiration, we’re all routing for you :(

sorry this became an essay but on the topic of john as misogynist, i know there are obviously more blatant examples in htn and ntn (and admittedly i'm only halfway through htn) but at least to me, i felt the misogyny was there even in gtn with the way he describes his relationship with / treatment of cytherea during the epilogue?
it's a different form of misogyny than the open disdain and degradation leveraged at mercy, but to me “She was the very best of all of us. The most loyal, the most humane, the most resilient. The one with the most capacity for kindness. I made her live ten thousand years in pain, because I was selfish and she let me" reads as a classic example of female objectification in the direction of the mother / martyr figure.
cytherea is defined here by her goodness and how she benevolently and selflessly served others. even though john fully names and takes blame for the pain he forced her to endure, he also places the blame on her for letting him do it. he denies her boundaries, complexity, and autonomy except where it would absolve him of guilt (see also, the scene in htn where john insists the murders at canaan house only happened because boe corrupted her). i know ableism definitely factors in to this attitude and treatment, but i don't think her being a woman was a small part of it either.
never apologize for writing me asks i LIVE for this. but you are absolutely correct in that this also falls back on Cytherea; admittedly it has been a hot minute since i read GtN so i appreciate a fresher take on this!
but yeah you're hitting my personal nail right on the head. from the way the other lyctors talk about Cytherea it really does look like she was subject at least some of the boys' club that the Mithraeum seems to be—(once again, the women began outnumbered and ended outnumbered; i'd love to know more about Cassiopeia and what her dynamic with the rest of the group is, although we get a glimpse from how John talks about her when he admits that she called his shit out for being "appallingly vindictive." would love to know how this translated over after her resurrection? hoping and praying we get more about her in AtN.) though it is, as you say, different from what is leveled at Mercy, and we know these dynamics can absolutely manifest in different ways.
where Mercy is shrill and "unlovable," Cyth is "gorgeous" and she "loved them all" which... isn't exactly degrading on its face but subsequent "poor little Cyth" by Augustine is definitely condescending!! (as much as it is endearing, in a way. they contain multitudes.) but i think most blatantly this behavior comes from John almost... victim blaming her? we can talk in circles for hours and hours about whether or not he could actually cure her cancer but it still stands that whatever he was enabling in her, she was (heavy quotation marks) "letting him do it."
John's insistence that Cyth was corrupted and denying her agency in genuinely hating him is really where i started to doubt that he just fundamentally doesn't misunderstand everyone he considers a close confidant. we already know he's completely fumbled Mercy & Augustine and that's how he ended up the object of two nefarious threesomes and also, like, exploded, but he's misunderstanding that everyone wants him dead because they want him dead. his actions are all the fault of other people and he cannot fathom not being adored, needed, and liked.

take responsibility + an ms paint guide to manifesting!
——————————————————————————
take responsibility.
the law is always working. if you “failed” to manifest something, if you’re struggling, it’s no one’s fault but your own. and you know what? that’s a good thing. people will hear that and get so mad and say we’re blaming them or being rude or cruel. but it’s the truth! you have all the power. there is no outside source keeping you from your manifestation: its your own self, your own conscious mind. you don’t have to change anyone or anything but your own thoughts. you didn’t fail to manifest because you’re missing a crucial piece of information. you know everything you need to know. you have all the power in your reality. if you’re failing, it’s because you are allowing yourself to fail. you have an assumption that you need to correct, or you’re not being strict with your mental diet, or you’re constantly. repeating. to. yourself. that. it’s. not. working!!!!!! don’t you guys see??? you ARE successfully manifesting: you’re manifesting your own failure!!!!
every thought you have is an affirmation, whether you like it or not. i’m not saying that if you think a negative thought one time that it’s going to manifest. intrusive thoughts don’t manifest.
but look at it this way:
these are your beliefs. each little circle represents a thought that you’ve had. in this example, we are manifesting money,
Tumblr media
these are your beliefs that have been instilled in you by society about money. but now, you’ve learned about the law and you’re going to manifest becoming rich.
Tumblr media
you start affirming your new story. imagine your new affirmations/thoughts stacking up as well. they are the circles on the right. as you affirm, you create new beliefs that cancel out your old beliefs.
Tumblr media
you’re excited! this manifesting business is so easy! you can already feel your old beliefs shrinking and disappearing as you focus on the new story and think positive thoughts that align with it. every positive thought you have cancels out a negative one.
Tumblr media
but wait a second....this is taking longer than you thought it would. you’ve been affirming for two days and nothing has happened!!! wtf??? that must mean that manifesting isn’t real!!!!! right?!?!?! you start thinking negative thoughts. you think five negative thoughts for every positive one.
Tumblr media
you keep repeating these contradicting thoughts, and you don’t understand why you aren’t getting your manifestation. you’re barely even saying your affirmations anymore, and when you do, your conscious mind just retaliates by doubting and being negative. the negative thoughts keep piling up, but the thing is that you aren’t realizing that they are what is keeping your manifestation from you.
one day you have a realization: your thoughts create. ALL of your thoughts. well fuck...you’ve been having sooo many negative thoughts. you haven’t been persisting, you’ve been wavering. you have not been on a mental diet. you’ve been allowing yourself to spiral.
but that’s okay!!! you have no one to blame but yourself. but that’s a good thing, because just as easily as you thought those negative thoughts, you can think positive ones instead. sure, you’ll have to monitor your thoughts and flip them and not allow yourself the comfort of thinking of the old story every once in a while, but that’s a small price to pay to literally become a millionaire and never have to work a day in your life????
you start thinking positive thoughts again. whenever you have a negative thought, you immediately flip it. in doing so, you work to cancel out negative assumptions. manifesting is hard? no its not, its the easiest thing in the world!! i must be doing something wrong? no i’m not, i’m doing everything right! its taking a long time to manifest? no it’s not, it’s already mine!! i manifest instantly.
before you know it, you no longer have to flip thoughts. you are naturally thinking from the new story. persisting is second nature. you are living in the end. you don’t worry about time or logic.
Tumblr media
your positive thoughts/affirmations outweigh the old story/negative thoughts. pretty soon, the new story feels so natural to you that you don’t even realize it’s not in your 3D yet. and then....boom! it is in your 3D. you open your bank account one day and see that your bank balance is in the millions. you are so excited! you go on a shopping spree, you buy yourself a new, luxury car, you travel to the places you’ve always wanted to go. you succeeded! you successfully manifested your desire, and now you can enjoy it knowing that it was you that did the work and got you there. disciplining your mind, flipping your thoughts, giving yourself pep talks in front of the mirror...it was all worth it. because now you have your desire.
a few days later you decide that you want to manifest an sp. someone to love you and treat you like a princess, someone that you can share your new wealth with. now that you’ve successfully manifested millions of dollars, you are super confident in your manifesting abilities. you have to confront your old beliefs about love, and now that you’re used to keeping a mental diet its much easier this time. you manifest your sp in the blink of an eye, because this time you trust the process and yourself so much more. damn, what would’ve happened if you just trusted the law and your subconscious mind the first time?
conclusion:
you have to think more positive thoughts than negative in order to manifest. that’s why we tell you to flip your thoughts. a negative thought can instantly be cancelled out by a positive one. over time, if you are strict about doing this, you will naturally stop thinking negatively. thinking negative thoughts is a habit that you can easily break. discipline your mind. it will be worth it.
no one can manifest for you. it’s up to YOU to put in the work. if your manifestation isn’t here yet, don’t try to place the blame on anyone or anything outside of you. take responsibility.
and persist for gods sake!!!!!!!!

Even tho the connection may happen & manifest we may feel trapped or there's a form of limitations within this connection, obstacles & hardships can come, slowness & yearning, fear & hesitation, all the hardships are how the karma move through the house aspect but with patience & commitment u will see the relationship to be a great teacher on the long term. interest in learning & knowledge increase extremely especially with things related to spirituality, metaphysics, religions, divination etc. Gaining a new teacher or increase in the number of teachers u have. U might have students too. To guide & be guided, teaching & learning comes together.

Feeling of separation or isolation from groups & organization, possibility of leaving groups behind. Spiritual growth & evolution, new belongings & paths. You're being reborn with the eye of saturn on you so be careful with what path are you taking. Is this serving your karma & purpose? Are you walking in the right path for you ?
You are the center until May.

( DISCLIPLINE ME BABY ? ) SHU YAMINO X GENDER NEUTRAL! READER 18+ WC: 2.3K
Tumblr media
❥ you tease him five times in the campus, he returns you the favor by making you cum five times as well for him. (inspired from this request)
❥ WARNINGS: SMUT, MDNI. unprotected sex, overstim, public sex, not proofread.
the class was awfully boring— the words of your professor started to become inaudible as you anchor your focus on your boyfriend who seems to be paying attention. for your class, all of you had to go out of your homeroom and take a trip around the campus to examine the buildings' intricate designings, a topic you weren't really interested in as of the moment. you barely put an effort to follow along with your cohorts, intentionally slowing down walking. the tread of footsteps echo in unison throughout the empty corridor, rambles from fellow classmates and the loud voice of your professor blends in.
you whip your head back to find your boyfriend, to which a bizarre idea popped in your mind. you halt for a moment so you could walk along with him. shu takes a glance at you once he notices your figure waiting for him. finally matching his pace, you inch forward to his figure. "say shu . . what if we fucked by the stairs over there?" you whisper to his ears, your breath tickling his sensitive skin as you point towards your right. he trails his gaze to the direction to which you pointed and his cheeks were already tinted of blush red. "he-hey, we're having a class right now."
the class was already starting to get ahead the two of you, several feet apart already but you paid no mind. you quickly hook your arm with his and bring your free hand to his crotch, slowly palming his soon-to-be erection. "so? i wouldn't mind being seen as long as it's you who's doing me." hearing your honeyed yet impure words made goosebumps break out on his pale skin, the abrupt teasing was something he didn't see coming.
"—in fact, i'd love that, i love it when they know you own me." you finish the sentence with an extremely confident tone, smirking at the end of your proclamation. shu's peace of mind slowly vanishes as his trousers became tighter after a minute of passing. being a physical manifestation of a cliffhanger you are, you decided to walk faster to catch up with your friend group and leave the flustered male behind like nothing happened, like you didn't give him a boner in the middle of your class. as a poor attempt to hide his throbbing erection, he tugs the hem of his sweater down several times. he tells himself to relax, it's a temptation burning just for now. or so he thought.
the clock's hand strikes at 12 and lunch time finally approached. shu and his group decided to eat outside of the university with his friends and you, with your own circle did the same as well, just different places. shu thought you wouldn't try to pull any prank on him anymore but of course, it's you. you stick by the saying "never let them know your next move." his phone buzzes from the glossy table top while they were eating lunch and as soon as he picks it up and swipes to see the messages you sent him, he nearly choked on the food he's chewing. ike immediately offers him a glass of water with a worried expression painting his face while the other three snickered at shu. apparently you sent him photos of yourself with no clothes at all, some images were zoomed in on your hole that shu admitted to loving so much one time when he was drunk.
of course, you had to follow up your teasing by saying: "just fuck me already, shu. didn't you say you love my hole? you can make the most out of it right now <3" the onyx haired had to go for a quick bathroom break to get himself together, losing his composure in a place like this would be embarrassing for him.
two times in a row of teasing, the male thought you wouldn't try anything more for the reason that you nearly drove him to his limits if only you were there when you sent him your nude pictures. he already couldn't focus on the classes you're having while you sit there and enjoy the show shu's putting on. you get smitten whenever he's dreading for you, yearning for your touch and warmth. but obviously, you weren't done yet. for the remaining hours in the campus, you tried to rub his dick with your ass, stroking his hair slowly (an innocent gesture that he finds hot, hence why you're doing it on purpose to him) and lastly, clinging to him when the professor isn't present yet. all of your actions nearly drove him to the edge of lust and the trigger was you licking his cheek just because.
the school alarm blares throughout the wide spacious hallways, signaling the end of classes for today. your usual routine with your boyfriend is he drives you to your home hence why you've been itching to go outside already. if shu was yearning for you, then you're twice as thirsty for his dick too. running up to shu's desk with a haughty smile, you pull his arm and chant, "let's go home now, i want to do it badly." for numerous of times but to your surprise, the raven haired didn't budge a movement. he waited first until the homeroom was finally only occupied by the two of you— he stands up and pulls your collar, forcibly making you lean towards him.
"we don't need to go home babe." he says as his other arm snakes around your waist, luscious lips immediately crashing on yours with fervor. he slips his tongue in and you could feel his lukewarm saliva dripping on your chin, shu is so impatient today and it was prominent from his foreplay. his dominant hand forces you to go deeper in his mouth with the use of force on your head, the other now groping the plush of your ass he's been dreading to touch. "shu, we can't do this here." you weakly oppose to his actions but his eyebrows knit in response.
"what do you mean we can't? earlier you were urging me to fuck you at the stairs and now we're in a secluded space you're saying no to me?" he says as he pulls his pants down, stroking his boner to prepare for its intrusion in your body. "jesus christ, when you talk like that i might just cream myself." you chuckle at the end of your sentence and strip yourself too, understanding shu's intentions right from the start.
shu's sly smirk widens as he sees you voluntarily rid yourself of your clothing, "then cream as much as you want baby." he says and seats himself on the chair and— you already knew the drill.
you shove shu's dick into your hole as you sit on his thighs, propping your arms on his shoulders for support to lap all of his dick up. starting the sex with an incredibly fast pace, the two of you couldn't exchange lustful musings any more as the feelings of pleasure got the both of you moaning at best. "i don't know but, our sex feels incredible today." your breath hitches as you try to answer, "perhaps it's the sexual frustration you're feeling now that your dick is rock hard." both of you pant heavily to try to catch your breath, but the momentum was going at a speed you couldn't match.
he bites his lower lip, standing up from his seat and he supports your body with his arms to not break the flow of the intercourse. you gasp as you notice his shifting of places and positions when suddenly, your back was laid on a hard, glossy wooden surface. "wait, don't tell me—"
before you could finish what you were saying, shu pushes his dick deeper into you once again, making sure he reaches the depths of your velvet walls with every thrust; jackhammering into your slutty hole. you almost cry out of pleasure and the shocking feeling stimulating your body at the same time. as he pounds into your body mercilessly, you feel your release nearing already. "shu, i'm gonna cum!" you cry out as he doesn't halt from his ceaseless thrusting. if anything, he quickens his pace to make you cream all over the place and that is exactly what happens next. droplets of liquid white come out of your genital, staining shu's clothes. "fuck— i'm sorry." you mumble and immediately try to wipe him clean but in response, he puts his hand on your shoulder and flips you, making you bend over on the woodentop table.
confusion clouds your fucked out mind, wondering why shu isn't saying anything— "fuck!" you cuss as you were caught off guard when the male pushes himself into you again, balls deep in. "i just came please slow down!" your words were staggered from how shu was doing you, barely coherent at all. "no can do. i need you to cum for me five times today, just like the amount of teasing you made to keep me horny." he answers, voice nonchalant— seemingly pouring all his focus on your body in making you cum.
"are you fucking for rea—" yes, you got cut off for the nth time today as the ebony head now strokes your lower region with his slender fingers in a consistent, quick pace, to which he was rewarded by your poorly stifled moans from pursing your lips. "let it all out. no one uses our homeroom around this time after all." he says, brimming with confidence and impulsivity. "i would! but! cumming five times!? don't you think that's far-fetched!?" practically exclaiming with few strength at this point, he places his hands on your lower back to make his dick reach deeper that you felt a lot, considering you just came. your knees started to tremble and couldn't stand up properly anymore, a view shu's enjoying tenfold.
"you just cummed right now. two out of five. keep it up." he says. your mind starts to drift afloat, away from reality as you felt more sensation on your lower body.
shu licks your inner thighs as he pleasures your genitalia by doing circular motions and stroking patterns in a speed he can keep up with. before you knew it, you cum once again but this time, right in front of him; feeling all shame in the world swallow you whole.
three out of five, next? he forces you to stand up as you lean against the beige walls of the classroom, the raven haired fucking you senseless once again. this time, he was more carefree to let his grunts of satisfaction slip from his lips. same old routine, you reach your limit once again.
four out of five. this time, he turns you over, making you stand up all on your own. you struggle keeping your legs still and feel as if you're going to fall anytime soon. fortunately shu wasn't that merciless when he's disciplining you with all he's got. he makes you rest on his figure but making sure not to give you enough time to rest. talk about 50/50. nonetheless, he tirelessly jackhammers into you once again. cumming for the fourth time today, your muscles started to ache for a break as you completely cling on to shu's figure for support. "shu— i can't anymore." you tried to tell him but your eyelids were already closed shut and body went numb.
Tumblr media
the moment you peel your eyes open, you were now then enveloped by the familiar, comforting cream painted walls. scanning the whole place, it's undoubtedly your room from the setting. you try to look back on the events that unfolded previously that you ended up here; once you realized shu was trying to milk you dry by making you cum five times, your mind spins with hundreds of questions when suddenly, the door creaks open at the right time. shu enters your room with a paper bag in hand, oblivion carved on his features. "you alright?"
the look you returned to shu when he asks you that immediately shot a question 'the audacity!' but the boy only cackles in exchange. "hey, what happened in the classroom? what happened here? what did you do to bring me here?" neverending questions of the same sort came out— as expected. shu had the face to laugh again, but this time, it was not of mockery or not the teasing type. he walks by the edge of the bed and sits on the far end, setting the paper bag on the chair beside. "when you passed out, i dressed you up and drove you here to your room. i shuffled through your bag for the keys and then tada! here you are now, waking up from a 2 hour nap."
"two hours!?" you repeat the phrase again, disbelief sinking in your mind once you heard what shu said. "yeah, i also got snacks for you to fuel you up. remember? you only came four out of five times. we're going to continue what we left off in the classroom earlier once you have enough strength to go again." the raven head chuckles by the end of his statement. "damn you shu."
"don't swear at me like you don't want it."
"okay . . maybe i do."
"alright, time to make it five out of five!"

i’m not sure if this is something you can help with but i wondered if you had any advice for me,
basically whenever i try to write recently, i get somewhere between 50 to 1000 words in (which really isnt much by my standards) before i start to get extremely tired? i’m not sure why, and i am struggling to write because i just get exhausted instantly
Becoming Exhausted When Writing
It's really not uncommon for writers to experience physical exhaustion when writing--sometimes after only a short period of time. Here are some of the reasons this happens and some tips for how to deal with it. :)
1 - Mental Exhaustion = Physical Exhaustion - The brain is an organ, not a muscle, but it behaves a lot like a muscle in that it gets stronger with "exercise" and can become fatigued with overuse. Writing is kind of like doing a cardio session for your brain. The creative load requires your brain to work really hard and expend a lot of energy, so the bigger that creative load, the faster you're going to feel tired. If you think of unwritten stories as untamed jungles, some writers can be plunked into the middle of the thick vegetation, without a map or resources, and machete a straight path back to civilization. Many of us can't do that, though. We machete circles through the jungle, lost and bewildered, hungry and dehydrated, exhausted and mosquito-bitten--and that's exhausting. So, if you find yourself becoming quickly exhausted when you sit down to write, it's worth considering how much of a creative load you're putting on your brain. If it's not an issue of what to write and where the story is going, something else is going on. For example, if you've had a taxing brain day before you even sit down to write, your remaining energy will vanish fast. But, if you find yourself wandering in circles through your story, you may just need to do some better planning. Having a "map" through your story and heading into the story jungle with resources ready can make a big difference.
2 - Actual Physical Exhaustion - Sometimes the problem isn't with our brains but with our bodies. Lack of sleep, health issues, busy days, mild dehydration, and life stress are all things that can contribute to physical exhaustion that makes us feel sleepy when we write. Some solutions: make sure you get enough sleep or try taking a power nap before you write. Exercise or taking a walk before you write can give you an energy boost, too. Drink some water, coffee, or an energizing smoothie before you write. If you're under life stress, try meditating or taking a refreshing shower before you write.
3 - Creative Stress - Millions of years of evolution have led our brains to be wired to avoid things that are stressful because they might be dangerous. Originally, this was to help us stay physically safe. If you knew there might be lions down a particular path, the thought of going down that path would be stressful, so your brain would say, "Nope, don't go that way." It works the same way with writing. If writing feels stressful to you--maybe because you're not sure what to write or are giving yourself a hard time about not making word counts or deadlines--your brain perceives writing as a threat and says, "Nope, don't go that way." This causes your "fight or flight" response to kick in when you start writing. That might manifest as your inner critic, distracting yourself, or experiencing writer's block. Pushing forward anyway can create even more stress, and that's when you start to feel exhausted. The best way to deal with this is to make writing as stress-free as you possibly can so your brain doesn't perceive it as a threat. Make sure you know where your story is going and what you need to write during each writing session, whether that means just thinking about it ahead of time or planning it out. Don't give yourself a hard time for not meeting word counts or deadlines, and don't even strive toward those (unless you have to) if they cause you undue stress. Instead, try setting small, attainable goals and reward yourself for reaching them. For example, instead of trying trying to hit a particular word count, try to write for ten minutes each day. If that's not a problem, go for twenty and so on. Set your goal just a few minutes above what you know you can hit. Then, raise it accordingly. Also, try setting up a writing routine and making sure you have a comfortable, inviting place to write if possible. Taking a walk, shower, or meditating before you write can help here, too.
I hope that helps! ♥

Good Omens Crowley's Sad Bastard Breakup Playlist
After the breakup, every time Crowley goes to drink at the Dirty Donkey pub, across the way from A.Z. Fell's bookshop, the jukebox mysteriously starts playing bitter breakup and sad bastard songs. Songs that aren't on the jukebox play when other songs are selected. It's like some demonic miracle. This also happens on the radio in Crowley's Bentley.
See note after list on song the selection process.
Songs include:
"Pale Blue Eyes" - The Velvet Underground
"I'd Rather Go Blind" - Etta James
"Cry Me a River" - Ella Fitzgerald
"Till the Heart Caves In" - Roy Orbison, K.D. Lang version
"Wicked Game" - Chris Isaak
"Crying in the Rain" - Everly Brothers, a-ha version
"Ain't No Sunshine" - Bill Withers
"It's Too Late" - Carole King
"Nothing Compares 2 U" - Prince, Sinead O'Connor or Chris Cornell versions
"Running Up That Hill" - Kate Bush
"One" - U2
"Crucify" - Tori Amos
"Hallelujah" - Leonard Cohen, Jeff Buckley version
"Lovesong" - The Cure
"I Don't Believe in the Sun" - The Magnetic Fields
"Love Will Tear Us Apart" - Joy Division
"Blue Monday" - New Order, Orkestra Obsolete version
"Never Let Me Down Again" - Depeche Mode
"Tainted Love" - Soft Cell
"Careless Whisper" - Wham!
"I Thought You Were My Boyfriend" - The Magnetic Fields
"Somebody to Love" - Queen
"Love Hurts" - Nazareth
"Love Stinks" - The J. Geils Band
"One More Minute" - Weird Al Yankovic
Despite himself, Crowley is compelled to visit Maggie's record shop to purchase copies of these songs.
Crowley has been sleazing around the backroom of the bookshop, crying and drinking, under the guise of helping Muriel run the place, but actually he's selling Aziraphale's books out of revenge.
P.S.: “Pale Blue Eyes” reminds Crowley of Aziraphale’s eyes. Every time he plays The Velvet Underground in his car, he remembers the time Aziraphale made a stinky poopoo face and called their music bebop.
P.P.S.: “Till the Heart Caves In.” Aziraphale stole Crowley’s dreams and sold them for dust. He always knew that angel was a bit of a bastard. Crowley remembers meeting young Roy Orbison and suggesting he wear sunglasses. A rock icon was born.
P.P.P.S.: “Wicked Game” reminds Crowley of the time when the bookstore burned down, Crowley rushed in to rescue his best friend Aziraphale but was too late. Later the same day, the M25 motorway was on fire. Then his beloved Bentley was destroyed by fire. To this day, Crowley can’t tell what hurt him more, losing Aziraphale or losing his Bentley, until they were both returned to him by Adam Young. He’s a good lad.
P.P.P.P.S.: “Crying in the Rain.” No one should see a demon cry. Crowley does his crying the shower. Earth rain showers, even thunderstorms, are also cathartic for crying in, unlike the swampy, wet bits of the fifth circle of Hell.
P.P.P.P.P.S.: “Nothing Compares 2 U” reminds Crowley of the times he and Aziraphale dined at the Ritz. Well, now he can eat at any fancy restaurant he wants without Aziraphale. Only now the food tastes bland and the drinks taste flat.
P.P.P.P.P.P.S.: “One.” This achingly beautiful song about relationships feels like a knife in the heart and punch in the gut. “We get to carry each other.” It’s too true. It hurts. F*** that angel for leaving him. The song reminds Crowley of his time hanging out with Brian Eno in Berlin in the early 1990s. He had fun running around with the band from Ireland. Crowley and Bono discussed corrupt religious leaders and the writings of C.S. Lewis. He suggested sunglasses to Bono. Then Bono took it further. The Fly, the Mirrorball Man, and MacPhisto were born. The rest is rock ‘n roll history. Crowley is especially pleased with himself for influencing Bono.
P.P.P.P.P.P.P.S.: “Hallelujah.” Crowley remembers helping manifest nebulae and stars with Aziraphale. Crowley was the one who gave the secret chord to David, yet David got the credit for pleasing the Lord. In a rare occurrence for deceased rock stars, Heaven got Jeff Buckley.
P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.S.: “Never Let Me Down Again.” Crowley thinks of all the times he and Aziraphale went for a drive in the Bentley. Aziraphale let him down. Curse the wretched, brightly shining stars. Nothing is alright.
P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.P.S.: “One More Minute.” This Weird Al song suggested something, an act of revenge to get closure. Crowley thought about the malt shop Aziraphale liked to go, but then reconsidered arson because innocent people might get hurt.
Note on song selection:
I selected songs that thematically fit with the relationship between Crowley and Aziraphale. This is what I call sad bastard music. What songs would match Crowley’s angry, bitter brooding? What songs would make him laugh? What songs would break him and make him cry? These are all songs that I like. You may not like my choices, so your mileage may vary. You can make your own playlist.
NOTE: Revised 3 April 2024 to include P.S. notes about the songs and the obligatory U2 reference. (I'm not sorry.)
NOTE: Revised 9 April 2024 to include songs by The Magnetic Fields, one of Neil Gaiman’s favorite bands. I must make this playlist pleasing to the co-creator of Good Omens.
You can listen to it on YouTube.
