Y’all ever think about how Leverage could have very easily written a black pain story with Hardison, a black foster kid, but instead made him the happiest one in the group and literally the ONLY ONE without a tragic backstory

I just checked my watch and it said it’s Metadede fluff time yet again!

Fragrance girlies: what do we think Scully wears?

I’ve been thinking about this a lot recently because I’m searching for my signature scent and have been learning about fragrances in the process.

I think Scully is someone who chooses how she presents herself very carefully. She would employ the scientific method to find her signature scent, doing research, testing dozens of samples, and keeping track of which notes she prefers.

Here’s how I imagine Scully’s signature scent, in the style of a fragrance review (which are, on the whole, surprisingly lyrical):

I think she wants her scent to be subtle but layered. Apart from simply liking the smell, she wants to evoke a scene, feeling, or memory. As we know, Scully is a family-oriented person who cherishes the gifts bestowed on her by her parents—notably, the cross necklace, but more broadly, her Catholic faith. As I suspect is the case for many Catholics, for Scully, much of the appeal of going to church is rooted in ancient traditions and worship aesthetics—think incense, smooth wood, gospel processions, tall beeswax candles, blood-red fabrics, chants, bitter Communion wine, textured bulletin paper. I think Scully would want her signature scent to evoke, if not a sense of Catholicism, something monumental, ritualistic, and purifying; a promise of salvation that science can never provide.

However, speaking of science, I think there must be something about the freshness and modernity of what you might call more “clinical” scents that appeals to Dana Scully, Medical Doctor. Even the pickiest of noses cannot ignore the allure of a good lobby smell, complete with a whiff of commercial floor cleaner, and as a star medical student, young Dana Scully was often in labs and hospitals, surrounded by chemicals. I think she likes the comfortability of the fresh, clean, and methodical. It feels like her, what she brings to the table.

Lastly, I think Scully has a deep reverence for nature, and judging by her behavior in episodes like “Darkness Falls” and “Detour,” she’s always been a forest girl. I associate The X-Files in general with foresty smells, and I think when Scully remembers the early days, she pictures all those times she and Mulder ran around in the woods together. Think fallen pine needles, miles of conifer trees wet with rain, damp, rich soil. Woodsy and earthy and rooted. Tethered to the ground, not flying around amongst the stars, fate unknown.

So, based on all of that, I think Scully would want a fragrance that’s traditional/nostalgic, fresh/modern, and woodsy/earthy, possibly with some of these notes:

Traditional/nostalgic: frankincense, myrrh, patchouli, elemi, benzoin

Fresh/modern: bergamot, cotton blossom, lemongrass, aldehydes, white tea, lavender

Woodsy/earthy: Cedarwood, cypress, pine, rain, soil, orris, petrichor, vetiver, oud

But what do you think? What would Scully wear? What scents do you think she would like? I know this is so nerdy and random but I am so curious what the fandom thinks!

i saw the vore piece one

what are YOUR! luffy pred headcanons

YES okay so he is, such a goof right? Loves food. Loves his friends. Loves having his friends as food. I feel like eating people would be something he considers petty normal tbh. After all, there are way weirder things in just the East Blue alone, so it’s honestly not that out there of a concept. I’m not sure what would have prompted him to first try it, maybe accident, maybe curiosity, but with his whole stretchiness thing it’s definitely something that’s very easy for him to do. He’s actually a  character I see same size working well for because he’s already made of rubber lol, and the full feeling from eating someone same size would be something he’d like way more than someone who’d been shrunk. Combine all that with how absurdly physically affectionate he is and bam, you’ve got a very clingy pred. 

He’s guilty of eating pretty much everyone in his crew at least once and no they do not have a say in it lmao. Usually he’ll just go for Z.oro since he’s his first mate and L.uffy usually tends to be the most physically affectionate and clingy with him. Does Z.oro say he hates it? Yes. Is he lying? Also yes. L.uffy can usually be found lounging in a hammock on the deck with a very visibly full stomach and is completely unashamed about the whole thing. Will gladly tell you what you taste like and ask if he can eat you without even a hint of embarrassment. He’s just like that. He loves eating S.anji with the food he makes and oh boy is U.sopp fun to randomly snatch up and startle lol. N.ami has threatened to kick his teeth in before and he does not care, but also won’t eat her all that often since she really isn’t overly fond of it. Sometimes though....sometimes it’s the best way to remind her how much she means to L.uffy, and that safety is worth being a little grossed out for. 

Oh, also L.uffy’s stomach is full of weird little things like silverware and small trinkets he thought were cool or valuable, and if you shake him he jingles like a coin purse. Sometimes you’ll even find like. A bowl or something in there. This man is a vacuum cleaner he does not chew 

This Barbie is the problem

I’m off to see The Barbie Movie rn

It’s 3am

I love that we all agree that fanon Michael Gavey would 1000% be with a bimbo

My favorite part of Gamingmas is logging on every day like what delightful dumbassery have the boys cooked up for today

this is extremely a shower thought but something that’s so interesting to me about the Winter King and the Candy Queen is they’ve both dropped “princess” as it’s used in Adventure Time/Ooo

the Winter King did this deliberately — he took the part of himself that was constantly thinking I miss my princess I want my princess I need my princess and put it somewhere else

and then when Bonnie got hit by that, she dropped the title Princess, the pet name her family used and that she kept in remembrance, in favor of Queen

I got my bestie to cut my hair when I visited and got a shag wolf cut. It’s short and my hair is a loose curl naturally.

Combined with my bangs, when it dries how it wants… I have the most 80s hairstyle xD
