Im going to tell a funny story
There was this legally blonde the musical emmet+elle cute moments compilation on yt in which my 15 yr old self innocently commented 'my crush told me to make up a handshake and im using emmet and elles handshake tee hee' which, wasnt a 'lying on the internet for likes' deal, it was actually true. Anyways this comment got like, 2k likes and A LOT of replies of ppl urging me to tell them more. I, a dumb child, obviously gave progressive updates throught 2 years and sometimes came back to that video to find a bunch more comments of people trying to keep up with my love story w this guy.
Anyways, the years pass, lots of updates. And the next comment i wrote, which was completely true by the way, sounded a bit like this:
"Absolutely fuck this asshole, he fucked my best friend and he ended our friendship of 5 years bc of it, never fall in love"
A few days later i go back to my comment to maybe rectify a bit of what i said bc i was angry when i did it and, its not there. The op of the video straight up DELETED my original comment because they maybe didnt want people dissappointed with the ending to my cute teen love story?? I'll never know
Anyways fuck that guy

Currently reminiscing on the time my friend casually asked “why are there so many people with august bdays? Like, it’s probably not much, but—“ and then I interrupted him and said with a straight face, without even looking up, “because of Valentine’s Day.” And then everyone stared at me, and I laughed it off but they were all traumatized for the rest of the conversation

Review: Last Night at the Telegraph Club
Tumblr media
by Malinda Lo
Finished this book a few days ago and wanted to share my thoughts.
Spoiler Warning! Review under the cut.
My initial impression whilst reading: This book is interesting, but very long winded - I could do with less minutiae of each and every setting Lily finds herself in. The time jumps are confusing -even with the timelines provided for context- this doesn’t feel like a book that necessitates non-linear storytelling. The plot moves forward at a glacial pace.
   ^obvious simplifications
My impressions now: I take back everything I thought!!!
Writing: It’s often said that there a purpose to everything in a literary work, and that definitely applies to this book. All my complaints? Throw them out the window. That slow progression, the time skips/flashbacks, the slow pace of the book all have their purpose.
Turns out that I’m just an impatient little bitch who is used to liking books based on pure first-readthrough impressions. I like prose that grips me and sweeps me away, I like being immersed and caught up in all the thrills and romance of a plot or setting. There’s no surprise that “Last Night” gave me some trouble while reading. Malinda Lo indulges in the details, she describes settings, characters, and actions thoroughly and she does so with care for an audience that probably isn’t as familiar with Chinese culture as I am. So yes, scene descriptions take some time to get through and you’ll have to weather some outfit descriptions but they all come together to tell a story. Lo paints a rich environment that is as much part of the story (forms as much of the story) as the characters are.
Characters: Let me tell you that I’ve never felt closer to a character than Lily. I’m not Asian American, I didn’t grow up in the US; nevertheless, Lily and Shirley’s feelings about living and growing up in combined but separate cultures still hit close to home.
I related to Lily’s discomfort with certain aspects of liberal Western culture, Shirley’s desire to fit in with American society (the scene at the ice rink? impeccable), I felt the dread and indignation of being othered when characters asked if Lily spoke English. I have felt the simple joy of sharing familiar foods with a friend, like Lily sharing ginger ice cream with Kath or snacks with her brothers, I cried when Judy gave Lily warm buns at the end of the story (aside here: the subtle celebration of our food culture and its importance to us!). I recognized the constant negotiation that takes place when one is born into two cultures, the push and pull of East and West, the pressures and pitfalls of being a ‘model minority’.
(Another small aside: I loved loved loved the use of actual Chinese characters in the text and the use of Chinglish in dialogue! I don’t even speak Canto as Lily and Shirley do in the story but even seeing Chinese characters in a text made me feel so proud. They felt like a declaration: we don’t have to be softened into Pinyin, look at us and become familiar with us, there is nothing foreign or fearful about us.)
Queerness: The story “Last Night” tells is twofold. One is about the Chinese American experience in the 40s and 50s, made most evident through the flashbacks and political tensions running in the background of the story’s present. Our second story is about Lily and Kath and the Telegraph Club.
Dare I repeat myself when I say I’ve never felt closer to a character? Despite the fact that I was born in the early 2000s, Lily’s path to adulthood and discovery of her queerness, her feelings and anxieties closely mirrored my own and, I imagine, many others’.
Growing up Chinese, especially as a woman/daughter, the familial and societal expectations of being a ‘good daughter’ are immense -even breaking the smallest rule can feel like a greater betrayal than it is. Both Lily and Shirley struggle with this idea, though, to Lily, Shirley seems to be much more comfortable straddling this ambiguous line (perks of being the extrovert friend, I guess). Lily has an added burden: the anxiety accompanying self-discovery that seems stupid and unnecessary but reads true to any queer person. The dichotomy of being a ‘good Chinese daughter’ and queer? Just quadruple the panic.
Pride: The subtle thread throughout this novel, which becomes most evident towards the climax of the story, is the feeling of pride and resistance. It is partially engendered through the setting of the Telegraph Club, where queer women felt safe enough to flaunt and express their sexualities and genders. Tommy, Lana, more characters I can’t name but am so grateful for. Lily and Kath’s budding relationship that grows even with the distance between them. All of these women, though unable to show their full selves to society, so fully embraced their truth. I was astounded when Lily stuck to her convictions when she came out to her mother. Lily, who I’d related to for her timidness and insecurity and frustration, who I’d almost fully expected to cave to her mother’s pressure. It was an exhilarating reading moment for me, even when the consequences of Lily’s coming out unfolded, I felt so happy knowing that Lily was brave enough to refuse to lie about herself. In that moment, Lily became a character that I admired, I don’t know if I would have had the courage had I been in the same circumstances.
Malinda Lo writes in her afterword that she wrote this book to bring about more visibility and recognition to Lesbian and Asian American history. It is researched with care and feels like an affirmation to queer women today: here is a piece of your history. So maybe I shouldn’t be so surprised that I, as a biracial person who’s grown up queer and between cultures in the 21st century, have never felt as wholly seen and understood as whilst reading this book. 
(final aside: I’m sure there are more themes and motifs I could talk about but I’ve run out of steam here, TL;DR this is a very good book with important themes)
I’m gonna be honest here, I was pretty apprehensive about picking up this book - as one tends to be when books get pushed on you through ‘booktok’. I wondered if this was just another book whose significance was being overemphasized simply because of its queerness and diversity - the kind of book that is lauded for a laundry list of ‘representative’ traits but ends up missing all the good story beats and feeling entirely hollow. I’m very glad it isn’t. “Last Night at the Telegraph Club” was the very opposite of my expectations: vibrant, emotional, lush, familiar, a book I didn’t know I’d needed.

Tumblr media
a star being appeared in your apartment, wdyd?
(aka loop getting reverse isekaied into the modern office au)
also there are some scattered mumblings on loop in this AU under the cut if anyone's interested (spoilers for all of ISAT, including 2hats!)
vvv
TLDR - The Universe keeps fucking with Loop and they are not really happy about it, regardless of timing.
While I haven't decided anything 100% concrete for Loop, the idea of a reverse isekaied Loop in general is interesting to me, so I'll be exploring that a bit here. Especially in terms of timing on when Loop gets taken out of their timeline. At least in terms of immediate outlook within this AU. So, for now, have a couple of those thoughts! 
---
The two main points in time I am currently considering are the following:
1. From when they gave up their original wish and made a new one.
In this instance, I feel like their arc would play a bit similar to in game
Seeing this new world as different & peaceful
Since they don’t have to deal with the loops anymore, just watch whatever happens.
Be a lil silly for funsies! The chaos that can ensue with a star being existing within a modern world! 
Even though it hurts to see Siffrin’s team hanging around, they really don’t have anywhere to go at the moment (hard to hide a star being in this type of world)
To a slow realization of how unfair this whole situation is. In comparison to all of the horrors they went through, this Siffrin has it so easy.
This Siffrin gets to live an idyllic life, free from the world calamity of being frozen & the literal time loop.
This Siffrin gets to freely hang around their family team, with no foreseeable "end" to being with them in sight.
This Siffrin had their original wish, the wish Loop wanted granted, handed to them on a silver platter. 
This Siffrin, nor anyone in this world, would ever be able to come close to understanding what Loop went through; Loop would never truly be seen in this world, not fully anyway.
What does The Universe have against them, to put them into this world and make them witness all of this?
It should have been them, with this carefree type of life, given all they went through.
2. AFTER the fight with Siffrin.
This leans a bit more lighthearted than the last, since Loop would have gone through all the development from the game via convos + the talk at the very end with Siffrin, and has a bit more peace about their whole deal.
Perhaps they would still see the same conclusions as above, since healing from the horrors would not happen all at once, if ever, with additional flavor
Underlying bitterness in why the script is still going. 
Why is The Universe asking for them to continue into a new world and role?
Haven’t they had enough, once making them witness another Siffrin’s loops and perfect ending, and now a completely idyllic Siffrin’s life from the get go?
However, there is also a bit of hope in the entire situation. Since if The Universe keeps deciding to fuck with them (as in, sending them to different world lines) there is still, technically, the chance of going backward as well.
To their original timeline and to their family.
Once could have been a one-off, but twice?
Perhaps three world jumps might be the minimum to go back, following standard wishing rituals?
More hope in this one from the get-go, with that thought in mind.
---
Though there are probably other points in time that would be interesting too! 
Another one I was considering was RIGHT BEFORE the fight with Siffrin, perhaps even mid-fight. However, I don't think that makes much sense for this particular AU ASAFASFASDAS. Can you imagine if Loop just spawned into this world, doesn't realize this is a completely different Siffrin, and attacks on sight?????
Honestly the idea of a reverse-isekaied Loop into different AU's in general is neat, would love to see other people's takes on it!!  Especially cuz of the various reactions/conclusions Loop could have/make based on the scenario/circumstances would be interesting, if that makes sense. At least I think there is something in that thought? I dunno!
I feel like I am missing some characterization bits in here, but that was the main gist of it for now since I cannot remember LMAO.
Mumblings over, thanks for reading my silly thoughts if you got this far!!!

Sometimes I like to think that I’m a comforting blog, y’know the ones you go to whenever you’re in a bad mood, itching to rid yourself of nasty thoughts and change your mind. The one that makes you want to physically snuggle in it, steaming mugs of hot chocolate passed around between followers and mutuals, extra marshmallows added for the favourite ones. Makes you wanna huddle up together, clumsily bump each other’s heads and shyly laugh it off.
No.
I’m the fucking blog that you’re walking in, no idea what the fuck you’re doing here yet you somehow stumbled at the worst of moments, pathetic loser behind the counter who hasn’t slept in like 6 fucking days. Rambling about how I want this old woman’s cunt stuffed in my mouth while I rawdog this one guy from behind, calling them my bitches. Fucking oversharing about how I fisted my cock like 18 fucking times today cuz I was just way too horny to hold it in and had to let that tension out somehow and sometimes jerking yourself silly in bed is the way to go. That’s a lie actually, I haven’t masturbated in a while. TMI, I guess? What the fuck else would you expect from me?
It’s like a sex carnival in this hell hole. Oh, you wanna read that fic about Whitney fucking you bent over the desk? Here’s your shock collar, WHORE. Harper slipping two fingers into your hole with their gloves still on? Here’s your vibrator, SLUT. Fucking Kylar riding your face and whining like a bitch in heat? Your massive dildo has been delivered, HARLOT. You guys just frantically nodding along like a bunch of idiots to whatever shitty take I have on anything, which, by the way, is probably about boypussy once again.
Honestly what are you doing here, and why are you even still here? This place is like a dumpster set on fire and I’m the source of that burning heat that’s melting everyone’s faces off, bones remaining.
- Oh, also, ageless accounts and minors.
[GET THE FUCK OUT OF MY FUCKING BLOG AND FUCK OFF, THANKS.]

Okay I usually try not to make posts back to back but have we considered that if ducks are spies of some sort (if of course, that's a big if) and demons can turn into their designated animal (eg. Crowley into a snake.) Then whose to say there isn't a demon whose associated animal isn't a duck? Whose to say that the ducks aren't spies because a demon is a duck????
