“I want to suck your blood blah blah” vampire dude keeps to himself in a gothic mansion alone for YEARS pretty sure his turn of phrase would be something along the lines of a intense anxiety and restrained hostility for disturbing his peace, or like some sad attempt at socialization like “hiiiii” or whatever

Heyyy, congrats on 200 followers!! can I please get a ship? Male, lightning era. My name’s Lana. I’m an Aquarius and ravenclaw. I have straight dark brown hair (almost black) a bit past my collarbones and dark eyes, one being a lil darker than the other. I’m ab 5’8” n skinny. I love diff types of art/expression. Art, music, literature, fashion, and what not. I love indie/garage rock. I mostly read fantasy/sci-fi w some romance thrown in there sometimes. I really like to write as well, basically the same genres. Gotta say, I literally love superheroes. Spider-Man is my main man. I also adore twilight and watching it is like being held in the arms of a lover. My fashion sense is a bit gothic. Edgy, if you will. Like morticia addams and jade west in a blende lol. Like black ripped skinny jeans and sheer lace sleeves. Skirts with sheer black tights also is a great look. A touch of 90s is definitely in there. If I’m not wearing combat boots (love those cherry red jadons) I quite like wearing heels. Boot heels and even dressy heels. I don’t always wear makeup, but when I do I like to go smokeyyyy. I love to laugh n have a pretty wacky sense of humor. Jus a lil quirky. I love a lil adventure. Life would be no fun without it, yk? I love when it rains. I love nature and being outside. Trees are one of my fave things in life. Evergreens are my absolute fave. I love animals! I’m a dog person, def. I’m generally a pretty chill person. I don’t really let things bother me. Except the socially constructed trivialities that have become a demanding part of everyday life. Like sending too many emails and the education system. I was built w a dash of social anxiety, but that’s alright. I value kindness and compassion. Sometimes I really just wanna hang out and vibe, but other times I’m v high energy lol. Thank you so much! :)

ah thank you darling!

i ship you with...

Fred Weasley.

how you meet

Early mornings were never easy for Fred, he loved sleeping in. Rest and relaxation are things that he lived for and school days never gave him that. Sitting at the gryffindor table, Fred has to fight to keep his eyes open as he struggles to bring his spoon to his mouth. His head begins falling forewords and threatening to fall into his bowl with every blink of his eye and George can’t help but roll his eyes.

“Fred you’ve dont this almost everyday for years now whats got you so tired?” George sighs, taking a bite of an apple.

“How can you stay awake so early in the morning it’s so bloody boring and tiring.” Fred groans, leaning on his elbows as he lifts his tea to his lips.

As the cup finally makes contact with his lip you enter the great hall with your friends, your laughs sound through the hall and you immediately catch Fred’s attention. He hate to sound cliché, but you really did stand out to him. Your sense of style caught his eye, dark colours and combat boots that clicked when you walked paired with lace sleeves underneath your uniform. Fred could feel himself perk up, and when you sat practically across from him, only at the ravenclaw table, his arm went limp and he dropped his hot tea onto his lap.

“Bloody Hell!” Fred cries, standing and picking up the cup from his pants. George holds back a ligh as his twin begins to jump back and forth desperately trying to dry himself off.

Your eyes flicker over to the gryffindor and you giggle at his little scenario. Picking up your wand you murmur a spell and the tea from the table and Fred’s lap evaporates into thin air.

“Careful the tea’s hot.” You smirk, placing your wand back on the table and giggling.

Fred sighs in relief at the loss of the burning liquid. “Thank you so much, I’m really out of it this morning.” Fred cringes.

“It’s alright, I’m Lana by the way.” You smile.

“Well thank you Lana, I’m Fred Weasley.” The gryffindor grins in return.

Fred walks you to class afterwards and the two of you become friends

Fred loves your style, he thinks your sheer tights and ripped jeans are badass and sometimes he’ll let you do smokey looks on him because it makes him feel cool

He finds it hilarious when you wear high heels and are suddenly the same height as him.

“It looks as though you’ve grown a couple inches overnight Lana!”

“That’s the point Freddie.”

“It’s wonderful, do you think I could get boots like yours?”

writing quotes from your favourite books and showing them too Fred.

He found your eyes really cool and quickly noticed one was slightly darker than the other and he just gushes about it all the time

you drag him to see muggle films with you and get him hooked on superhero films, you catch him jumping around sometimes pretending he’s an avenger

You also show him twilight and while he doesn’t inderstand the concept of vampires being romanticized, he likes watch your smile grow and your whole demeanour go all warm and fuzzy

He loves your sense of adventure and adores when you pull him out of the castle to explore the outskirts of the forbidden forests and he loves it when you find evergreens and run up to it to prick your fingers against the pines.

One day while you’re walking through the trees it starts to rain and instead of running inside the two of you step out into the open air and just enjoy the little droplets falling onto your skin. Fred pulls you into a dance and you run hand in hand to the sound of thunder.

He loves how strong you are when it comes to injustices and he loves listening to your rants because they show him how passionate you are about things that need to be said.

Your energy is something he loves, how you’re always up for a good time or how fast you can come up with something to do

One day while you’re out in the quidditch pitch Fred brings you to a little warm up area with a couple pull up bars. He climbs up and dangles upside down by his legs and lets his arms fall down. You walk up to him and you’re practically eye to eye

“Look Lana, I’m spider-man!” Fred laughs, holding his hands out like he’s shooting webs.

You laugh and step closer, tracing your fingers over Fred’s features. His brows, nose, jaw and lips and suddenly the atmosphere changes and Fred raises his arms to cup your face.

You close the gap between you and giggle at the fact you were re-enacting the iconic spider-man kiss.

You pull back and Fred swings down, letting the blood rush back through his head before walking over to you and kissing you properly.

“I can’t believe I just did the spider-man kiss.” Fred chuckles, holding your head in his hands

“I know it was awesome.” You giggle, wrapping your arms around Fred’s torso.

Hope you like it!!🤍🤍

Chapter 4 Reactions “Why do the dementors look like crusty labias?” -My sister upon witnessing a close up of the whispers.

Chapter 1-2 Reactions

Chapter 3 Reactions

I present to you my reactions to playing FF7R for the first time. I voice recorded myself as I played through each chapter. I finished the game and will slowly be writing down most of my commentary as I played. My sister, who has no prior exposure to the lore of FF7 (sequels, movies, novellas, etc.), watched me as well and I will be including her fresh perspective here as well. I also use the word “bitch” affectionately. I call my besties by that word so if you are easily offended, don’t read.

If you hate any other ship beside your own, don’t read this. In this particular reaction, my sister and I comment jokingly at the interactions between Jessie/Cloud and Cloud/Tifa. Our reactions and preferences aren’t an attempt at disregarding any other ships out there. They’re our opinions and will never be  determining factors on the validity of your personal ship. With that said, here are our reactions!

Ok, fuck, we’re going to have to sneak out and go topside with Jessie... (sis: He’s gonna fuck her.. me: He’s going topside of the plate! Not topside of her! sis: I know, I just wanna piss you off.)

*When Cloud says all SOLDIERS receive training to operate motorbikes* Sis: If he’s lying about being a SOLDIER, why are his eyes the color of mako if all SOLDIER bois have them? me: that’s why normal people have to finish the game to find out.

Sis: JESSIE IS A HELLA THOT, SHE’D BE YOUR BEST FRIEND. Me:... Why can I totally picture that?

*Cloud tells Jessie to get off after Jessie begins narrating themselves as a couple* Sis: Do guys believe girls think this attitude is cool? Yuck.

Jessie isn’t deterred by Cloud’s foul attitude at all. You go, bitch!

*When Roche appears* Sis: uhhh... why is adult Demyx in this game? me: He doesn’t look--oh. HAHA

Cloud is so badass.

Sis: WTF IS THIS PLACE SO NICE FOR? PEOPLE BE UP HERE LIVING COMFORTABLE WHILE PEOPLE DOWN BELOW DON’T EVEN HAVE PAVED ROADS, HOW DO THESE RICH BITCHES SLEEP AT NIGHT KNOWING THERE’S CHILDREN LIVING IN SHIT CONDITIONS RIGHT UNDER THEIR FEET?!?!?!!! ME: Tricia, relax. It’s just a game. Sis: Sorry, the social worker side of me is coming out.

The music is sooo pretty. I need to learn this on guitar.

Her house is so fucking cute.

You know what? Cloud’s kinda like a cat. Cute, but can be total bitches.

Does Jessie’s mom approve of Biggs for Jessie...? (Sis: I approve of Biggs for anybody. He should be the main character. Cloud’s “tew kewl for yew” attitude is a turn off. He’s hot though, so...)

I know I have to sneak into the room, but I wanna hear more of their conversation! (Sis: No time to fuck around, bitch. Get what you need and leave, here, let me do it. Me: No, no, you can play the whole game on your own when I’m done.)

Oh shit, Jessie has a very sweet side to her. I love this bitch.

She’s doing this cause all bc of her dad. Man, Jessie’s so special.

Cloud, Biggs, & Wedge are bros.

*gasp* IS THIS THE PROMISE SCENE? (Sis: Tifa’s so cute! Cloud’s got a lame rat tail, ew. At least he isn’t too much of a dick.)

Why are they showing so much cloti content every chapter??? (Sis: bc obviously he’s been crushing on her since they were lil churrens)

Sis: Cloud looks like he get emotional and teary eyed every time he thinks of Tifa. Like his eyes change in size and...kinda change in color. Like.. them bitches starting to look blue. Me: *gasps* I kinda see it. Definitely his eyes get bigger... Sis: He’s such a typical haole, blonde hair, blue eyes, he got the baby red flush on his face too, soooooo cute! me: You were literally shitting on him a few minutes ago, what changed? 

Sis: You’re like one hit KO-ing everyone. Did you fucking over level yourself again? Me: I...think I did. Sis: This is why you need to learn restraint.

*Wedge gets bit* Sis: Wedge is the MVP bruh

Sis: You have to fight adult Demyx again? Me: Clearly his name is Roche. His name is right there.

Holy shit, Wedge really is fucking MVP

Sis: Who are the hazmat suit lookin’ bitches? Me: The rest of AVALANCHE. Sis: There’s more of them??? Me: Did you really think all of AVALANCHE was just Jessie, Biggs, Wedge, Barret and Tifa?

If you don’t let your friends look at your singed ass, you’re not truly friends. 

Cloud is chuckling! Sis: Feel, don’t conceal, bitch! LET IT GO~

Sis: Is grandma over there hitting the guard?

*Cloud mentions Jessie’s dad* Sis: Wow, did Cloud fucking just--fuck you Cloud, breaking bro code. Snitches get stitches. 

Did they have Jessie strapped up with Biggs so that Cloud won’t talk to her about her dad during the parachute dive? LOOOOL

Biggs wrapping his hands around her waist, bruh. 

Holy shit Jessie is giving me anxiety. 

Biggs’ face nearly collided with Cloud’s I’m dying. 

“pay you in full” Sis: they’re def gonna fuck tonight. Ohh my gosh, but what if she tells Tifa?

Sis: yeah Cloud, why you gotta be such a hardass?

Wedge’s smile is so precious, we need to protect him.

Sis: We’re on our way to fuck bitches~

Oh my gosh, Biggs is a sensitive guy secretly. So cute!

“Life’s a stage and love’s a play.” Wedge, who hurt you? Was it Jessie? Let me go talk to her for you.

Wedge is a cat mom? Maybe that’s why Wedge is so attached to Cloud. Bc Cloud is a grumpy cat lol.

OH SHIT. Did she just plant one on his cheek?

Sis: She wants his dick. She’s thirsty. Me: Wedge warned us about her. She’s just playing a game! Sis: Then ditch the bitch. Me: When you say bitch, it sounds mean! I don’t want to be mean to her, but I don’t want to give her hope. Decent guys don’t lead bitches on. Sis: You were trying to get into Tifa’s room at the start of the last chapter, you freak. Decent, my ass.

I’m sorry, Jessie, I love you, bitch, but...not happening. Sis: She’s so unfazed by it! See? She’s peachy beachy. She probably has other options. Now let’s see if Biggs is home! Me: I need to see what the other option would lead to.

*We paused the game and watched the no promises option* She legit pretended to be excited about making pizza for us and she changes up on us like that with her “psyche!” bull shit, oh my goshhhh, she’s playing the game! Sis: Love’s a play, life’s the stage.

Sis: Biggs is a neat freak AND handsome AND sensitive? Throw Cloud tf away. Make Biggs the main character. 

Do people just not lock their doors in this hood? Sis: If you don’t have valuable shit, there’s nothing to steal.

Tifa is in Cloud’s room! Sis: Stop trying to get them to fuck. Tifa’s not gonna let them fuck until they’re official official. She’s too classy for that.

He’s trying to get her to open up! He wants to spend more time with her! Ugh, He’s trying so hard to be aloof and caring at the same time!

Sis: She won’t share all her secrets. She has a fucking punching bag in her room, she’s strong enough to handle her issues without leaning on no fuckboi. See, look she’s changing the subject. She won’t even sit directly next to him. Cloud scares the bitch, why would she wanna get close to him after he tried to kill Jeffrey. Me: Johnny. Are you sure you haven’t played FF7 before? Sis: If I did, I wouldn’t be asking 21 fucking questions every 10 minutes.

Sis: *sarcastic* Wow, I love how he quietly says good night to her right before she shuts the door, like he can’t fucking say it to her face properly. He’s a coward! Me: Everyone is shitting on Cloud! Sis: He’s frustrating! Me: He’s traumatized! Sis: From what...? me: *realizing I may have spoiled the story for her* let’s play and find out, shall we? Sis: Woooow...

*confused bc this wasn’t in the original* Whaaaat is going on? Sis: Why do the dementors look like crusty labias? Me: Can we fucking play this game in peace? 

Sis: Holy shit, a hoard of labia dementors!

This is fucking weird. I need to use Tifa to stagger these bitches. 

THEY STOLE OUR GODDESS, FUCK NO. Sis: They ain’t do shit on her. She’s strong af, look at how little damage they’re doing to her.

HOLY SHIT JESSIE NO. Sis: damn, maybe if he fucked her, this wouldn’t have happened. me: you’re joking right? sis: obviously. but then, why are you laughing at my joke, huuuh? 

Cloud is still tryna be cool, carrying Jessie bridal style. Like um, Barret and Tifa could have easily carried her bridal style into the bar themselves. Stop stealing the show all the time.

You think Tifa’s a little jealous? sis: no, only insecure girls would think that. Jessie can’t walk and Cloud was only trying to help. Barret would probably throw her over his shoulder if he tried to help her up and that’d probably fuck up her leg more. He has a fucking gun for an arm, tf is he gonna do to help? Cloud’s just being a decent guy. A decent guy who won’t try to go into their crush’s room at night without being invited, weirdo. Me: *I’m speechless, but grinning*...

Sis: See? He can tell Tifa’s nervous. I honestly couldn’t tell at all. And he’s telling her to breathe. Jessie was clearly in distress. Tifa was too, but we couldn’t tell cuz a bitch is strong. Cloud pays attention to her too, why’d she be jealous for? You’re the insecure bitch, LOOOL, just kidding. Me: Woooow, you make a good point, but you had to use me to get there? You biiiitch!

Barret said the line! ohhh my goshhhh, my heart. 

sis: “play it cool” he says, when he’s standing fucking over 6 feet tall, buff as fuck with a gun arm, Cloud with a bigass sword, and Tifa looking fly as fuck. They stick out from the rest of these normies, talk about obvious. 

This concludes our reactions for chapter 4! 

Just a little context, my sister is studying in social work and aims to be a social worker in a few years while currently working in an office for her college that handles campus recycling, promoting eco-friendly alternatives and hosting events that promote the reduction of waste. She loves that the story is about people trying to rescue the planet and plans on playing this game herself! We are very close and don’t mind being a little mean to each other! It’s all in good fun. The whole insecure commentary my sister made was due to my personal issues I had experienced in a long time relationship I had where I caught my boyfriend of 5 years cheating on me with one of my closest friends. I bare no ill will, however, that experience left me with an aversion to dating seriously. I recognize that this incident left me with insecurity issues and always found my self questioning the sincerity of people’s actions. My sister claims that Cloud was just being a decent person helping Jessie, while I saw it as something worth being jealous over. Having my sister watch along and reacting with me is helping me view this story from an objective, unbiased perspective where it isn’t tainted by my own experiences. It’s really interesting and refreshing and an eye opening experience. I’d love to read up on any other gameplay reaction as well, so send them my way! 

What happened to Nina?

I just watched this documentary on the life of Nina Simon (What happened, Miss. Simone?, Netflix), and it touched my soul. Nina Simone was and will always be a Queen with a gift to this planet and our people. Watching the documentary made me appreciate the Civil Rights movement even more, especially on the 50th anniversary of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s assassination. People like Medgar Evers, Malcom X, Lorraine Hansberry, Betty Shabazz, Fred Hampton, Martin Luther King any many others played such a pivotal role in People of Color’s liberation and future freedoms. Nina Simone sacrificed her lively hood, her career and her peace of mind to be a part of a movement that would change the lives of every single person of color. In the prime of Nina Simone’s career, where she could have been and done anything her heart desired, she decided to use her fame and popularity to inspire her people. She joined the leaders of the Civil Rights movement and she used her god-giving ability to sing and play the piano to remind her people of how amazing and beautiful they really were. If says a lot about a women that was willing to risk it all, to play her part in making sure people like me could be free and do whatever my heart desired. Watching this Netflix documentary gave me a deeper look into the life of Nina Simone. In her younger years her husband was very abusive, and Nina Simone made it clear that at one point in her life, she was scared of her husband. He played a major part in her career and he helped Nina do things in her career that she never imagined. The flip side to that was Nina didn’t feel safe or loved and when she started to use her gifts of singing and playing the piano to invoke change, that’s when her marriage changed. You see Nina’s husband wanted her to focus on touring and growing her career. That’s not what Nina Simone wanted, so she did that complete opposite. She spent her time in her younger years being a significant part of the black Renaissance. It’s easy now to look back at the 60’s and all of our leaders and activists like they were superheroes fighting the evils of this country. But in those times, being a superhero didn’t lead to you getting applauded and cheered for. Being a hero during the Civil Rights Movement meant you were willing to sacrifice your life, your freedom, your family, your dreams and your career. People like Dr. King, Marcus Garvey, Malcom X, Lorraine Hansberry and many more sacrificed everything, even their own piece of mind for the progression of their people. It was more important for Nina Simone to let People of Color know how beautiful and amazing they really were. I remember years ago I was watching an episode of Def Poetry Jam and the amazing actress Ruby Dee proclaimed that revolutionaries don’t get applauded, they get their legs cut off. Martyrdom. Let’s take a minute to think about what happen in the 60’s. The United States of America killed off all our leaders and for the outliers that made it through the 60’s, they either had to flee the country or deal with some harsh reality because of the backlash of slavery and Jim Crow. To be honest, I don’t know how any of our leaders maintained a sane mind while we were fighting for basic human rights. You see I studied my history and I know all that my people have been through. Everybody that was on the front line of change during the Civil Rights movement paid a major cost. They either loss their lives, their families, or their minds. Nina Simone decided to sacrifice everything so that her people would know how great they really are. You see, it’s easy not to get up and stand for a cause. Back then when you stood for a cause, you had to put your life on the line. Medgar Evers got shot in front of his house for fighting for voting rights. Martin Luther King got shot on the balcony for being one of the leaders of the Civil Rights movement. Malcom X got killed for telling people of color to stand up for themselves. Fred Hampton got murdered in his bedroom for playing a pivotal role in the Black Panther Party. And many others gave their lives, so that we would be free. During the interview, after the assassination of Martin Luther King Jr., a reporter asked Nina Simone how she felt about the Civil Rights movement. Her response was that Civil Rights was dead. I think if you made through the Civil Rights movement, you really got to see the consequences for fighting and standing up for People of Color. If I was Nina Simone, I would have loss my mind as well. She watched all her friends either get murdered, flee the country or lose their mind or die because of a broken heart. I don’t think we fully understand the effects of slavery and Jim Crow. Poverty and oppression is socially and mentally constructed, in this country, to hold and control a particular race. That race is People of Color. Through everything that we have been through, it didn’t matter we still rise. Slavery didn’t work, Jim Crow didn’t work, war didn’t work, poverty didn’t work, murder didn’t work, taking us away from our families didn’t work. Trying to convince the world to hate People of Color didn’t work. No matter how much the system tries to hold us down, we will rise. It doesn’t matter what type adversity we face, history shows we will get through it. We will not just get through it, we will thrive and excel at every facet of our lives. We were really made in God’s image. My people’s DNA created every ethnicity that exist. We pushed society forward and introduced the world to science, magic, math and we give this planet color. People of color’s DNA is divine, and we can do anything we put our mind too. The one problem that effects every person of color is our lack of unconditional love for one another. The next thing is our lack of belief in self. You see people of color will continue to suffer if we stay disconnected. We could change the destiny of every person of color on this planet. You know how we do that, we start to respect and loom out for each other. We must remember that we are all one people and we share our people’s pain because we are all connected. That means that an injustice to one of us is an injustice to all of us. So, we must start fighting for each other. We can do so much more if we did it together. Do you know what happened to Miss. Simone? She sacrificed her wealth, her piece of mind and her family for the culture. It was more important to Nina Simone to uplift her people and play her part in pushing the people forward. In my generation, our leaders are only willing to sacrifice but so much for the cause. We have become complacent and confused as a people. We didn’t get our rights and freedoms by being passive. We got our freedoms by sticking together and shaking up the system, until the system gave us what we wanted. So many of our leaders sacrificed so much, so that we would be able live out our dreams. We were not given anything, we had to take back our freedom. It’s 2018 and we are still dealing with a lot of the problems that our great grandparents had dealt with. Jim Crow still exists; the system just changed the name to classism. If your credit score isn’t high enough and you don’t make a certain amount of money you can still be told that you can go into a certain establishment. Instead of people of color are getting murdered and hung on a tree, we get shot dead in the streets to lay for hours while people in our community watch. The backlash of slavery and Jim Crow has led to mental illness being a major problem in the Black community. So many of our young people are dealing with depression and anxiety, a direct result of the unstable environment that they grew up in. Poverty has been passed on through generations, like an inheritance for people of color. We have never got the time to heal and recover as a people. Every time we thought things were getting better this country through another obstacle for people of color to overcome. We made it through slavery and Jim Crow and then, this country pumped drugs and machine guns into our community. And then, there was a war on drugs in the United States of America and two million of color were incarcerated. That’s double the number of Black people enslaved at the height of the African slave trade.

Today, people of color still lack properly funded schools. We have more access to information than ever before, and most of us do nothing with it. We lack leaders that can bring people together so that we can change the culture. In my opinion, things have gotten worst but they say change comes on the brink of disaster. So, I believe that the darkness will be vanished by the light of spirits like myself. We will do for this country what our ancestors did for us. We will shake this system up until things start getting better. We wouldn’t be screaming Black Lives Matter, if everybody was getting treated equally. This country says that we are all treated equally but that’s not the reality of what’s happening. This planet isn’t going to get better by itself, we have to make it better. So, let’s take a minute to remember the late, great Nina Simone. She was a gift to us and I am forever grateful for what she did for our people. Her mission was to remind people of color how beautiful they really are. Despite all the adversity we have been through over the past 500 years, my people, please appreciate that resilience, and know that you don’t have to die to get to heaven. We can create paradise right here on earth, if we just started to love and support each other unconditionally. We are all family and when an injustice to one of us becomes an injustice to all of us this world will start to get better. There are still beautiful spirits like Nina Simone, all over the world, and it’s time we come together. Trying to do it by ourselves will kill us. Our people need us, they yearn for freedom and I want to be a part of the group that helps them get it. I believe in people, now and forever. We were the first people on this planet and we will be the last. It’s time we wake up and stop waiting to be saved. Nobody is going to save us but us. People of Color will forever be in God’s favor, so know that there will always be way for us to thrive and succeed on this planet. We just have to make that way together. Please never forget how amazing our people are. We have done so much to push this world forward, and we will do so much more.
