so I see that one of my old managers finally got married to his long time gf but only after cheating on her on multiple times with a coworker who is also in a long time, long distance relationship who also slept around with multiple other coworkers causing unnecessary tension in the workplace and of course everyone involved is extremely conventionally attractive so no one bats an eye and they all go on pretending nothing ever happened

ways that romance (as a capitalistic social construct, no i'm not talking about the feeling of romantic love) is inherently unhealthy, since apparently this is a debate topic now:
seen as the be-all end-all of adulthood
people expect a partner by the time theyre in their teens/early twenties
if you dont have a partner by then youre sad and pathetic and should be desperately trying to get one
many people's financial situations only become stable after they marry
many people marry SO THAT their financial situations will become better
people end up trapped in abusive relationships because of financial bullshit (see how this is capitalism yet?)
the entire holiday of valenteins day as it is currently celebrated makes the concept of romance seem like a. something everyone experiences, b. something everyone needs to experience (i know literally almost every single person feels like shit on valenteins day for something out of their control), and c. profits off of all of this
it combined with the patriarchy means many men feel entitled to women's feelings towards them
people will become romantically involved with complete or near strangers, and all but forget about and even move away from longtime friends to be with their partners
YES, SEEING ROMANTIC PARTNERS AS MORE IMPORTANT AS YOUR FRIENDS IS AN UNHEALTHY MENTALITY
putting all your emotional wellbeing onto one person is inherently unhealthy, for you and the other person
in conclusion: you can feel romantic love, you can date, you can do all that bullshit and i don't fucking care, but just. acknowledge that as a wider social construct romance is INCREDIBLY unhealthy and feeds a society of extreme loneliness even when you DO have a partner
just like, stop prioritizing your romantic partner over every single one of your friends and family jesus christ

saw Us today skip this post bc spoliers
so it wassss verrryyy good and super inchresting and not like as traumatizing as i thought, @thenixkat talk to me
i think a big reason it didnt totally fuck w me in a sour way most horror movies is bc the whole family made it out alive, like that was the reason attack the block doesnt have a lot of rewatchability w me
i really thought Gabe was gonna die and that woulda really bummed me out, like i knew the kids wouldnt die and probably not Adelaide, Red’s death scene was a bit much tho 
LOVE LOVE LOVED the use of changeling concept i really dont feel like its used enough and this killed like it adds so many more questions, and i think it adds more depth to the fear of her children wandering off and being replaced by a tethered
its free real estate guy was a fun thing to see, like inside joke i said its free real estate everytime i saw him
the cinnamontography and symbolism,,,, stunning, amazing, fascinating
lots a people in the theatre laughing and im here like!!!! excuse me??? im scared here!
questions i have bc there is a lot to question here (im just using the adelaide and red name that theyre called thru the movie not when they switched)
how EXACTLY do the tethered work??? like how do they know whats going on above? they seem to have a weird empath link but on the surface world ppl know/feel nothing? how did red know what adelaide was dancing and stuff if she wasnt born the tethered counter part
how are the tethered and humans different? bc w red and adelaide it seems its only bc of the way they were raised? red is the only who who does/can talk i suppose she was the only one who learned which is why when they switched adelaide had to 
tethered people are said to be without “Souls” but adelaide wanted to be free and she clearly loves her children very much which the other tethered obviously dont care one way or the other and Red hates all of them but i feel like Red had some affection for jason. 
how much do they copy each other bc apparently they have to marry and have the same children but like jason’s tethered had burns and stuff but he never seemed to play with fire? idk i didnt really get the whole magic trick thing he had in his hand
what happens now? who takes care of them? what next? what does the hands across america accomplish?
i would also like to know more about adelaide’s parents, whats the story there
how much of an involvement did the orginial experimenters have going forward? how did they just abandoned them and left?

Im just curious, how do you handle the whole Bianca thing in your storyline for Varric and Kadan? Are there still hangups over her or is she just a nonexistent issue?
you didnt mean to anon but you just sent me an ask equivalent to swinging a bat at a hornets neat and im sorry but this is the only remotely dragon age discourse thing i will get legit mad about.
actually im going to be incredibly petty and bastardous now because im very catty and the way they handled bianca in inquisition was abysmal lmao. for one thing, that was not a mystery anyone needed solved and the actual mystery itself is cliche and bland. like theyre exes, wow thanks bioware great writing thats totally innovative.
also the character as shes presented in inquisition is an insufferable little fucker. idc if biancas different in whatever other dragon age content they shoehorned her into, and something tells me she isnt, i cant stand her and i actually Tried to like her. i like what she could be and the idea of that but the actual character is really irritating. she gives off this air of smug superiority and arrogance while still Actively and Knowingly fucking other people over. and that would be fine if it didnt feel like the writers wanted to portray her as a good person.
she makes a mistake by leaking the red lyrium thaig and her idea of taking care of things is “drag my ex and the inquisitor through a dangerous darkspawn/carta invested cave and lock a door. :-) problem solved! everythings fixed.” she never expresses regret for betraying varrics trust in her or having a hand in getting innocent people killed and getting the lyrium in corypheus’ hands which leads to the red templars. she makes excuse after excuse despite obviously knowing whats come from what she did and you cant call her out for it or punish her in any way. and she never shows a squirt of repentance on her own, she just fucks off to wherever afterwards.
and when varric is justifiably like “hey why did you do this to me” she blows him off and throws his insecurities in his face (i.e; “at least i dont wallow in misery while writing stories about my mistakes :-)”) and then has the absolute fucking nerve to turn around and threaten the inquisitor after that like she wasnt playing with his life five minutes ago by bringing him down there. lmao.
and on the subject of varric, i never get the impression she really cares about him much at all? which isnt totally her fault because we see just so much of her but if the writers couldnt competently convey affection in 2-3 scenes between people who supposedly tried to elope at one point and apparently are still pining for each other, thats their fault and they shouldnt have attempted it. also at one point varric calls himself “the expendable one” which makes me feel like a wild chimpanzee.
plus varric/bianca is like a fucking saltine cracker of a relationship anyways. its goddamn boring.
in summation
Tumblr media
oh yeah sorry and to answer your question i rewrite about 80% of the stuff involved with bianca. she and varric are still exes that nearly got married but theyve both moved on and still have a friendly jokey kind of relationship. she still goes behind varric to investigate the red lyrium but unbeknownst to her, someone working for her leaks the thaigs location and darkspawn being controlled by corypheus overrun it and begin mining the lyrium. instead of playing it off as no big deal and thinking that literally just locking a door will fix everything, she tells varric immediately and fesses up to studying the lyrium.
hes upset about it but of course he gets the inquisitor to help her and they end up destroying the entrance. after that bianca offers some help to the inquisition so she can try to actually fix whats happened instead of just locking a door and fucking off with no consequences.
and no shes not issue between varric and kadan. theres no residual longing that varric has to get over and bianca has a wife that she loves and her and kadan get along fairly well together. and thats that on that.

demon!jihoon
a/n; very much inspired by jihoon's demonic lenses he wore here?? and this prompt!i would also like to thank @hwinkinghwi for the demonic(?) moodboard hehe,,,happy early halloween!
Tumblr media
jihoon is one of the most cunning demons
he would actually use his ungodly looks to his advantage to get his way
almost everything his goddamn face will make people give in/compromise
sometimes he uses his evil to help kids out
like, he sees a kid being bullied at a playground or something, he would give retribution by shoving sand down the bully's shirt??
(i have no idea how demons work so please spare me)
but other than that jihoon is pretty cynical
when he disguises himself as a mortal, he looks normal, until you look at his eyes,,,
theyre a light blue
they arent even contacts, like theyre just his eye colour
people just believe his lie that those are prescription contacts LOL
jihoon is being notorious for the senior who uses his looks to get through anything and everything
but not his grades lmao
so he's two years older than the kids taking their college entrance exam
basically he just wasted 2 years of his life in school
but he just wants to live off fellow demon!seongwoo,, so he just, doesnt study and goes to school
but seongwoo found out about it,, and made sure jihoon spends his legit last year in high school or jihoon would be ugly in his next life LOL
you're a senior in high school, trying to make the best out of your dying grades
you do know jihoon, but avoid communication as you're an angel
like legit,, angel
you were an angel thanks to your mother, who was involved in the heaven
and she wanted you to live a sin-free life as much as possible
ok now back to avoiding jihoon
why avoid communication?
for a simple reason;
you had a crush on him
and the rule of thumb your mother bestowed upon you was
"you can date anyone but demons"
and you were well aware jihoon was a demon, as your halo(which was invisible to the eyes of mortals) were blinking whenever jihoon would be near you
and you just didnt like the idea of dating a handsome asshole
fun fact: jihoon used to be an angel until he was involved in the 101, which made him evil
you knew jihoon relatively well due to the fact he used to be an angel
he was your childhood friend
always protecting you and looking out for you
your crush on him developed even before he became a demon, and didnt falter even when he wasnt a angel
but the both of you grew distant as your mother would warn you not to play with fire
you were taking a media studies elective as a subject and there was a coursework you had to do
which involved acting w a partner of the opposite gender
and to your luck, jihoon was the only student in the class who took media studies
not knowing anything between the both of you, your teacher assigned the both of you as partners LOL
to make things worse, the story was
romeo and juliet
how ironic lmaoooo
meaning, you had to kiss jihoon
or rather, jihoon had to kiss you
because your teacher chose the last scene, which had the least lines, for the both of you to "ensure your distinctions"
and the both of you just had to bite the bullet and take it because you'd want to graduate from school quickly and attempt to wash the sins of kissing jihoon away by doing more good things in college
while jihoon just wanted to get this thing done and over with
you told your mom about it, she was okay with it, but she still warned you not to fall for jihoon
though, your dad is a demonxangel
its a given that you and jihoon had to stay after school to run through the script
and every time you and jihoon renact the last scene, your breath hitches in your throat and you hiccup
or on days where you just burst out laughing and accidentally spit on jihoon
he actually wasnt that mad about it because 1. he knew how hard it was to keep one's composure in a kiss scene WITH THEIR CRUSH
2. he just thought you were cute
despite jihoon not kissing you for practices
which you were thankful for or else you cant sleep at night
until,,, the day of the assesment
everything went fairly smoothly, and the dreaded kiss of life was very soon approaching you
you thought jihoon wouldnt kiss you like he did in practices
bitch you thought
he kissed you on the lips and you were trying your best not to shoot your eyes open in shock
and of course,, the kiss of life received a standing ovation from the teachers who were really impressed
because most students dont actually kiss lmao
so you had to drag jihoon aside after yhe assesment and he had that stupid smile on his face
"cant you see i like you???"
you were stunned and also happy
but you had to keep your promis to your mom
"im sorry jihoon, i cant be your girlfriend"
boy he was shocked because he was never rejected
"why?"
"because," you bit your lip, contemplating wheter to tell jihoon
"because??"
"angels and demons cant be together," was all you said before leaving jihoon hanging
you and jihoon never talked until,,, halloween
which, you decided to go as yourself to your friend's halloween party at universal studios
you wore a plain white dress,, and wore a halo headband
pretty basic and simple but you really didnt care and just tried to dress nicely
apparently her parents rented the whole theme park for a private party lol
your friend was asking why you didnt bring jihoon along as your "plus one"
and you just shrugged,
"shit happened and we arent really talking anymore"
she got the hint immediately and stopped mentioning jihoon
meanwhile, jihoon was also dressed as himself
his hair was dyed a lighter blonde and wore a v neck black button up w ripped jeans,,,,,, and wore a choker on his neck too
basically all-black and looking good as heck
when he arrived every girl turned their heads and were shookt
like he barely needed to do anything to look THAT good
"a demon" was what he replied,, but he was laughing inside as people dont know his real identity
he was just enjoying the atmosphere of halloween where people dressed up and didnt care if their make up was shit,, its halloween anyway
he was just chilling and walking around w fellow demon!baejin when he saw someone carrying a girl in a white dress,,,
and that girl in a white dress seemed too familiar...
that when it clicked and he had to abandon baejin to save you
when he stopped the figure holding you, he ripped off its mask and revealed someone he wouldnt expect
lai guanlin
"guanlin, what are you doing?"
"i..i can explain--"
"explain what? drugging y/n and bringing her somewhere to hurt her?!" 
at this point jihoon was really really angry, his irises turned red
"who made you do this?”
“i can’t tell you--”
“im severing all ties with you if you dont tell me.”
“okay okay! seongwoo-hyung made me do it,, he just wanted to mess with you. nothing poisonous was fed to y/n! i swear!”
jihoon could only sigh and roll his eyes, as he motioned guanlin to come closer to him
and when he did, he twisted guanlin’s ear, making the younger groan in pain,,, while still holding onto you LOL
“help seongwoo-hyung again and not only your ears would be red,” jihoon snapped, as guanlin helped to load you on jihoon’s back
jihoon was contemplating where to bring you to,,, in this state where you were fast asleep
he decided to bring you back to your home
of course, with you on his back was pretty crazy
people were staring at him, thinking that he got a girl drunk lmao
but some people were noticing how cute he was and he’d just blush and try to hide his face??
meanwhile you were still sleeping, and jihoon made your head lean on his shoulder
and it was quite a scene bc a literal angel leaning on a literal demon’s shoulders??? p sadistic but cute at the same time
he knew the exact route to your house because it was almost like muscle memory,, he always came over to your house during the weekends when the both of you were childhood friends
when jihoon knocked on the door he was pretty nervous to how your mom would react
“y/n youre--jihoon?”
“sorry you have to see this, but y/n got drugged by someone... i saw her and i had to save her”
“ah, i see...” your mom was weirdly happy that no one but jihoon saved you??
“her room is the last bedroom to the right...” your mom pointed, “i think you should stay over, it’s quite late.”
“but i don’t have any clothes...” jihoon smiled nervously 
tbh how is he not tired after holding you for so long;)
“its fine! daniel has some clothes he cant wear anymore, you can use those.”
casually slips in olderbrother!daniel
jihoon was reminded of the times where your mom would take care of him p well, he was so touched that her heart didnt change over the years despite being a demon himself
“thank you mrs y/l/n, please rest early too!”
thats when your mom muttered something about him calling her mom
“excuse me?”
“yeah i will sleep soon, when daniel comes home.”
as jihoon entered your room, it was clean, and like a typical teenage girl’s room, with fairy lights and wall decorated with polariod pictures
after he settled you on your bed, he looked around your room and spotted a picture of the both of you amidst all the polariods
it was the both of you during your freshman year,, he took you to smoothie king because you were having a bad day
he smiled, but then sighed at the thought that your mother didnt allow you to date demons
but she was liking him so much she wanted yall to get married right there
all he could do was kiss your forehead and ruffle your hair
when he was about to leave he felt something tugging on his arm
“don’t go...” 
you were sleeptalking lmao
jihoon hence slept at the side on your bed, while holding your hand
the next morning, you woke up to a weight on your hand, and you saw a blonde head 
you were surprised so you screamed
and you woke jihoon in the process
“w-what”
“what are you doing here?”
“well...” jihoon scratched his head sheepishly 
“...”
“what-- y/n! i know im a demon but no, i would never do that”
“then?! what are you doing here, in my room, in your...outfit”
“because you told me to stay??” jihoon raised his eyebrows
shit he heard that, you cursed internally
“but thank you for saving me.” you blushed
“that’s it?” jihoon smirked, “no thank you kiss?”
“what?why?”
“because you are mine.”
shit i cringed so hard but smth jihoon would say tbh
“but my mom--”
he then interrupted your words with a kiss, which worked
“i can bet you my life saving that she is peeping at us right now,” jihoon whispered
and yes she was, peeking at the both of you and you could see her punching the air in victory
dating demon!jihoon is just like dating a huge fluffball
and takes revenges on your behalf if anyone dares to hurt/offend you
but sometimes hes hella r u d e 
like randomly flipping his hair and winking
and whenever he trips,,
“i think i fell for you”
like p l e a s e  s t o p
still has the innocence in him despite being a demon
like lighting up in front of candy
and buying you stuff in a non-evil way
your mother openly supports your relationship with jihoon
like 
“yes yall my son in law is jihoon,, isnt he handsome??”
and you had to shut her up everytime she starts talking about jihoon
sometimes you wonder if she forgot that youre her child and not jihoon
overall, a relationship most wouldn’t expect but still ship together
