Princess Niki!!! Tiny Wilbur!!! Aaaa. Something horrible is going to befall these children isn’t it?

lmao I wouldn't say something horrible befalls them more like the adults around them all have their own messed up ideals that they push onto the kids as they grow up :)

Rule of Rose (PS2, 2006)

booktok cannot handle unfriendly or emotionally complex female characters. show them a woman who’s a little problematic and they start shaking and shitting themselves. women can be either be martyrs or victims, anything else and ppl short circuit. men can be fucked up emotionally manipulative mass murders but if women have one unpalatable emotion they’re drawn & quartered.

if booktok bitches saw the female characters i liked they would piss blood for a week !!!!

32 YEARS OF CLASSIC SONIC THE HEDGEHOG

i DESPERATELY need more people to talk about this duo omfg

I genuinely don’t think anything will ever top the feeling of watching the Doctor and the other Doctor and Rose and Jackie and Mickey and Martha and Donna and Jack and Sarah Jane fly the Earth home in Journey’s End. That episode came out fifteen years ago and I have yet to find any other moment of a movie or TV show that makes me feel quite so brilliantly joyful. And I am completely okay with that.

Roooseee

ok like fair warning i haven't *read* the royalty au fic (finals week, moving soon, also traveling) but you mentioned sandduo as otto hightower and alicent and i almost jumped out of my chair. alicent hightower my blorbo purse dog she has so many issues.

ignoring the like. ingrained misogyny of hotd bc the main thing of otto is that he is 1. very ambitious and 2. cannot physically say he cares about his daughter though he does 3. isn't above using her for political machinations despite the fact that she is a) 15 when she marries the king and b) a lesbian. the sandduo parallels are there and they are real

i think the stronger parallel is between c!wilbur and alicent in terms of. they have *very* high amounts of anxiety initial, begin relatively naive, and increasingly become bitter over like paranoia and trauma (wilbur) and immense cognitive dissonance (alicent)

oh my god you understand me alicent is also my blorbo purse dog she's soooo messed up I could literally talk so much about how well-written of a character she is with how she views herself as a woman and how she treats other women in turn and how she suffers at the hands of all the men around her but she's still perpetuating their misogyny just aaaa. alicent darling I wish you could've had your lesbian romance with rhaenyra on god you deserved it

lmao yes we are ignoring the ingrained misogyny and forced marriage aspect of their dynamic but yes the sand duo parallels are just. it's so interesting. the idea of needing to fulfill your fathers expectations and conform to the ideas everyone has of you. feeling like you have no power and have no clue what you're doing but trying to grab it wherever you can. and yeah definitely the anxiety too lmao

sandduo in the au are still gonna be very different from alicent and otto i'd say but the inspo is definitely there you understand me anon

well when the brainrot hits you can’t ignore it okay

A court of frost and starlight is (subjectively) the worse book in the sjm world. Especially when it comes to mental illness

The first half of chapter 11 is fucking disgusting. I think i geniunely hate sjm a little after this chapter.

Rhysand is literally kicking a man while hes down. Tamlin is depressed. Hes not taking care of himself or his home and is clearly at rock bottom. His home is empty and as stated at the end of the chapter theres no wards around his manor to protect him

"But as I winnowed away, the dark wind ripping through me, a strange sort of hollowness took root in my stomach. Tamlin didn't have shields around the house. None to prevent anyone from winnowing in, to guard against enemies appearing in his bedroom and slitting his throat. It was almost as if he was waiting for someone to do it."

I can quote the entire chapter to point and say HEY THIS IS FUCKING GROSS WRITING! She worte a clearly depressed and ill man but hey! its okay rhysand said really bad shit to him because we LOVE rhysand in this house! to qoute feyre hes usually the bigger male so hes entitled to a slipup!

except hes not. thats not a slip up thats purposefully trying to trigger a man you know has anger issues so you have an excuse to kill him. That is quite literally what kids used to do to me when i was younger, thats being a fucking bully. Rhysand is not a good person, quite the opposite actually. Rhysand also states that "he had been given everything and squandered it." which is not completely true! (Given tamlins backstory and how he feels about being high lord so *loud incorrect buzzer*) Rhysand is an extremely unreliable narrator. Example from this chapter? Rhysand asks where "his dear friend" lucien is and Tamlin tells him hes hunting and the following happens

“Hunting for our dinner.” “No taste for such things these days?” Tamlin’s eyes remained dull. “He left before I was awake.” Hunting for dinner- because there were no servants here to make food. Or buy it. I couldn’t say I felt bad for him. Only for Lucien, once again stuck with being his crony.

Where did this come from? Tamlin said lucien left before he was awake. He didnt ask him to do that.

Rhysand proceeds to purposefully say stuff to make Tamlin angry so they can fight and is surprised when Tamlin just tells him to leave. Then chapter 23 does nothing to help this. Wow tamlin has completely isolated himself after rhysand fucked him up more. But its fine cause rhysand made him dinner and got people to patrol the border.

It really hurts. I have so many of the same mental health issues as Tamlin. Seeing sjm do nothing with this but add more stigma just sucks. Yes Tamlin fucks up in acomaf (even if i cant fully comprehend that one sjm) but that isn't excuse to do this horrific mental health shit.

I am open to discussion about this more! if we have opposite opinions that okay! if you love this series to death that's great for you! as long as your at least somewhat polite I'm chill with it. If your rude i will be mean on the internet.
