i love you like a rotten dog, i love you like my canines are falling out of my gums. like a monster, like a beast. like something not worth loving back.
Marie Lu The Young Elites / @/bloodyhellharry (on tumblr) from The Infamous Willow Prank, Part Three / Hélène Cixous excerpt from Love of the Wolf, "Stigmata: Escaping Texts" / @/thymoss (on tumblr) / Virginia Woolf The Waves / Deborah Landau Soft Targets / Tory Adkisson Anecdote of the Pig
i. Marie Lu, The Young Elites
[ "So. Tell me, little wolf. Would you like to punish those who have wronged you?" ]
ii. @/bloodyhellharry
[ Pencil drawing of three panels of a comic strip. The first image is of a closed hatch. The second image shows the hatch being opened slightly. The third imagine is the largest. It shows a wolf with a large shadow, snarling at the cracked hatch. "IF HE'D GOT / AS FAR AS THIS HOUSE, / HE'D HAVE MET A FULLY GROWN / WEREWOLF" ]
iii. Hélène Cixous, Love of the Wolf
[ "The lamb loves its wolf. The wolf turns all white and starts quivering out of love of the lamb. The lamb loves the wolf's fragility, and the wolf loves the frail one's force. The wolf is now the lamb's lamb and the lamb has tamed the wolf. Love blackens the lamb." ]
iv. @/thymoss
[ Messy sketch of the head of an animal with teeth surrounding the outside of it's face, pointing away from it. "I will / remove my teeth, for I / want to remain / kind despite / my anger" ]
v. Virginia Woolf, The Waves
[ "I press you to me. / Come, pain, feed on me. / Bury our fangs into my flesh. Tear me asunder. I sob, I sob." ]
vi. Deborah Landau, Soft Targets
[ "We are animal hungry down to our delicate bones." ]
vii. Tory Adkisson, Anecdote of the Pig
[ "Do you still believe myths / can save you? Foolish creature. / Let me be clear: every version of the story / ends with you being slaughtered." ]

Propaganda under the cut.
Wanda Maximoff AKA The Scarlet Witch:
I mean she's the definition of a anti hero girl boss. She's worked for the bad guy, she trapped a town full of people into her fantasy scenarios because of grief, she tried to kidnap and kill a teenager to get her kids back... But she's also a hero who saved a lot of people and always did the right thing in the end. While being the stuff of nightmares in a whole movie! She's one of the most powerful beings in the MCU right now and the best part in my opinion.
Adelina Amouteru
So she can create illusions, and does all sorts of fun stuff. Like killing her abusive father. After that, she gets saved from hanging by a group of people who have powers like her, called malfettos. She falls in love with their leader, but accidentally plays a large part in his death. Then she has to run away and do other stuff, and ends up attracting a following called the Rose Society and eventually becomes Queen of the Sealands. At this point, most people would argue that she's the villain of the book, but I give her a pass because she's so cool. Also, her powers are slowly driving her insane, but she won't listen to her sister (who has the power to take away her powers) when she tells Adelina this. Over the course of the next book, she slowly isolates herself from everyone around her and eventually becomes a star constellation. Super tragic.
It’s been a while since I read the books but listen she’s the ultimate villain protagonist. Brutally tortures several people. All the conquering and killing. Love her.

Guys… I just have to… okay listen
I picked up the Lighting Thief while in was at a Target with my mom while I was in 8th grade. I hated reading. I hated it. I’d rather do a multiplication table test then partake in popcorn reading (if you know you know, and if you know how much I HATE math that means something).
I’m sitting here right now post-episode 8 (yes I did cry like a baby thank you for asking) watching the behind the scenes documentary A Hero’s Journey.
8th grade me could have NEVER imagined the journey PJO would take. Or the journey I would take in the years of The Lightning Thief to the Sun and the Star, all the way to a freaking faithful series adaptation.
PJO introduced me to fandom. I remember seeking out PJO fan fiction because The Lost Hero came out, there was no Percy, and it was going to be a year long wait to figure out where this “other camp” was. I remember finding every Viria fan art I could find. It’s not even funny how many times over I’ve watched the Viria “How Far We’ve Come” music art video since the drop of episode 1
PJO taught me to love reading. PJO lead me to Hunger Games, Legend and The Young Elites, Rot & Ruin, The Hate U Give, An Ember in the Ashes, Born A Crime, Island of Sea Women, Alex Rider, A Woman of No Importance, Skyhunter, Eragon, Barrackkn: The Story of the Last “Black Cargo”, The Sun is Also A Star, Revolution for Dummies, and so so so so many more. It’s because of PJO that I have flown on the backs of dragons, won and lost revolutions, been to the ends of Tartarus and Isihogo (Twice!), saw the world through a spy’s eyes, been the villain, been the hero, and lived more lives than one is allowed to live in one life.
That 8th grader in Target had no idea what she was getting herself into. And I wouldn’t change it for the world.
Thank you Uncle Rick. Thank you to the whole Disney+ Team that made this season reality.
Uncle Rick. Thank you for a million of your stories, and a million more that you opened up to me.
(Every title and author is tagged below if you want to see more 🩵)

“Enzo enters with a sweep of dark robes, bringing with him the scent of wind, night, and death.” “How many times have you been called an abomination?” he whispers. “A monster? Worthless?” “Don't cry" He says, his voice firm. "You are stronger than that.” “Embelish your flaws. They will turn into your assets. And if you become one of us, I will teach you to wield them like an assassin wields a knife.” Enzo Valenciano | The Young Elites by Marie Lu

this is probably one of the most niche fandom posts i'll ever make but i was rereading the young elites trilogy and i realized.
teren santoro 🤝 eli ever:
- regeneration powers
- part of a rare group who gained powers after a near-death experience (the blood fever counts right?)
- condemns that same group and dedicates their life to hunting down the rest of them
- self-hatred
do you see it. i'll be surprised if even one person sees this and recognizes both characters but tell me you see it.

Propaganda under the cut;
Now
I have had the original post in my drafts for months since I haven't had enough beads to make the Legend characters and haven't gotten around to planning any Skyhunter ones. I have Warcross and The Young Elites characters locked and loaded, so I could just post those as separate posts and call it a day!
Later
But also since I am getting new beads soon, I could whip up some designs for Legend and Skyhunter and then make one big post with all of the characters! I will also have time to digitally make and post the patterns I used if I do this.

Round 1
There are three ways to survive in a ruined world. I have forgotten some of them now. However, one thing is certain: you who are currently reading these words will survive.
-Omniscient Reader’s Viewpoint, Sing-shong (싱숑)
Six thousand robots danced through the streets of Milky-Pink City.
-The Pirate Loop, Simon Guerrier
I'm going to die tomorrow morning.
