Just another fangirl tumblr. I am a geek of the eclectic sort. There will be Teen Wolf! Avengers! Firefly! Kittens! And numerous other dorky things, including the ramblings of my own demented mind.
Find me here on AO3, maybe buy me a ko-fi if you like them!

Kouri watches He is Psychometric, episode 4

  • Like, listen, I know this guy *didn’t* stab this lady and set the place on fire, but if he had, I’d forgive him after she treated him like that.
  • ‘Did you feel like my investigation at the time was sloppy?’ I mean he obviously does
  • Police chief’s just not concerned about the only witness being murdered? Okay
  • This adorable dumbass practicing his greeting
  • adjhlkjshdga the doctor winning a bet on him seeing the wrong thing
  • Did this dumbass forget they were moving
  • KSM what kinda picture is that on your wall
  • Lee Ahn stop being so mean to this poor lady
  • Just romantic embarrassment all around today apparently
  • “Sorry, I had to come see you again because I’m a dumbass who doesn’t know where I live”
  • sfhkjadfgka Lee Ahn you should not be waving so cheerfully after finding a body in a suitcase
  • Just a man sitting in the dark, alone with his slides
  • You need to get yourself a crime wall, KSM, that’s how all the cool kids solve murders
  • Well those are some incredibly unsettling flashbacks
  • I’m gonna need someone who speaks Korean to come tell me why she calls him ‘Daddy Long Legs’  because I do not think the vibe that comes through from that translation is accurate in any way

The Cult of The Many Mothers

What if the cult of Immortan Joe is slowly, year by year, replaced by another one? The Citadel inhabitants seem to be totally wrapped into a religious mindset (to the point of brainwashing) and Immortan Joe’s fall is also the fall of an entire system of customs and traditions. He was a cruel god but their god nonetheless. The void caused by his disappearance has to be filled.

Hence, the cult of the Many Mothers.

The Many Mothers, who went into the desert and back. The Many Mothers, who brought us water. The Many Mothers, whose names young girls and boys from the Citadel are taught to repeat in their prayers. The Many Mothers, whose deeds are told by the History Women and Men.

Mother Angharad of Freedom

The One who first rose against The Father of Lies*. The One who went under the wheels, sacrificing herself for our sake. The One who freed us all.

Mother Capable of Compassion

The One who loved the unlovable. The One whose hand wipes away all pains, all sorrows. The One who redeemed us all.

Mother Dag of Greenery

The One who planted the seeds. The One who gave birth to the First Free Child. The One who fed us all.

Mother Toast of Knowledge

The One who brought us wisdom. The One who found her strenght in loneliness but chose companionship. The One who fought for us all.

Mother Cheedo of Bravery

The One who deceived The Deceiver*. The One to whom small girls and boys look up to when in fear. The One who saved us all.

Mother Furiosa of War

The One who chose peace.

*Immortan Joe has been subjected to damnatio memorie, remaining unnamed in lore as an Antichrist-like figure.

Lift your heads up and look around this locker room. Look at everybody else in here. And I want you to be grateful that you’re going through this sad moment with all these other folks. Because I promise you, there is something worse out there than being sad, and that is being alone and being sad. Ain’t nobody in this room alone.

TED LASSO APPRECIATION WEEK DAY 3: FAVORITE QUOTE

A monster is stalking Hawkins.

White vanishes into the forest after being the last one at a party.

The next night, a boy who looks just like him but has a number tattooed to his arm shows up in the woods.

Or: the fic where Black gets to be telekinetic

honestly my favorite thing about hardison is that he has no real tragic backstory, he's just like "i am very smart and therefore i should be allowed to do crime" and he's entirely correct

i hope you don't mind me copying your tags bc while i stand by how funny it is that hardison just kinda does crime bc it's rad, i think it's a really cool subtle way to strengthen the premise of the show, which is that the system is bad and you SHOULD break it with crime, and that's why the sweetest nicest guy who loves everyone is also the guy who had a perfectly fine life with his nana except for systemic issues and now he, an incredibly smart guy who could probably rock the hell out of any job on the planet, just kinda does crime? and not in a sad way but just in a "hey this is bullshit i'm gonna rob a bank nonviolently" way

also i really like how that contrasts with nate who intensely benefited from the system until it screwed him over and who then twists the system against itself for revenge (and who is an absolute self destructive bastard), while hardison is like "rules? for me? no thank you i'm smart"

man i love this show
