About me page with out of date info + askbox. My username is spelled “plavoptiče”. My ao3 and my spotify. I don’t write much but I do make a lot of fanmixes.

BELOW ARE OPINIONS NO ONE ASKED FOR BUT IT’S MY BLOG AND YOU MIGHT AS WELL SEE WHAT YOU’RE SIGNING UP TO FOLLOW (but you should not follow me).

i love when people on the internet say the actor is exactly like their character as a way of praising them like that isn't literally the worst thing you can possibly say to or about an actor

To celebrate wrapping up the juniors series earlier this year, I commissioned a scene from One Eye Upon the Heaven Renounced from @sadfishkid, who absolutely nailed a difficult and emotionally-charged moment! 

If you found me from AO3, thank you for all the kind words and support over the past few years. <3 And if complicated familial relationships are your jam, I’ll throw a link to this fic in the reblogs. 

It’s actually worse than that. She hadn’t even thrown her shot put. She’d just stepped up for her turn when these assholes started harassing her.

Then he started harassing another little girl who was nearby. “ "He stopped the entire event. He also pointed at another girl who also had short hair. He then piped in and said, 'Well, if she is not a boy, then she is obviously trans.'" “

The man’s wife apparently started verbally attacking the mother of the first girl as well, calling her a pedophile and a genital mutilator. It’s also really important to note that the 9 year old had two moms.

But I will note....from the accounts I’ve read I haven’t seen the folks call for genital inspections but they do demand “certification” which, would be more like asking for the girl’s birth certificate rather than a call to inspect genitals before competition.

Honestly though, they should have bodily removed those assholes from the premises instead of moving where the shot put was being played. They have no right to do this to kids and then be given a wide birth.

Say it again. You are willing to do what with me?


Eternal Love (Chinese tv series, 2017)

Rebageling in case people missed it but HIS FACE when she says she loves him in the second gif, when he looks like he wants to cry

For context, he was madly in love with her. They were together in a past life and had a kid, it was tragic and people tore them apart, she doesn’t remember it, he does. Fast forward to current life (I am simplifying they’re gods ok). He remembers her. And now they are engaged in a political marriage. He was over the moon. But then she told him she wanted out because she didn’t love him, and she wanted to do incredibly-risky-thing-sure-to-end-in-her-premature-and-painful-death to save this other dude Mo Yuan, who everyone thought she actually loved.

So he (Ye Hua) agrees to end the engagement even though it is KILLING HIM. (They do have sex once for the road. Yeah that’s not gonna destroy him even more). And then he runs off to risk his own life incredibly-risky-thing-sure-to-end-in-HIS-premature-and-painful-death to save Mo Yuan. So she doesn’t do it and get hurt. Bear in mind he has never met Mo Yuan. He is very jealous of Mo Yuan. But he loves her that much.

He barely survives (he is critically injured and vomiting blood everywhere and a mythical beast chomped his arm clean off so no he is not ok).

He does not tell her because he doesn’t want to stress her out.

Well, she finds out. And she sees how he is trying VERY HARD to pretend he is ok haha ignore the puddle of blood in the corner ok. She realizes he did this to protect her, even though she rejected him.

And she had a moment of crisis and realizes oh god

Ye Hua

This man

Holy fuck. she wants to be with HIM.

Anyway so back to this scene.

They’re making out (he still thinks she doesn’t love him so you can understand how he is losing his mind in anguish). And she stops and is like “hey. Uhm. I actually love you and want to marry you. Btw. If that’s ok.”

Ye Hua was not expecting that. He was expecting to pine forever and be lonely forever and just accept her scraps of love without getting anything in return.

And as you can see after he stops crying (does he stop?) he calmly responds with “YES THAT IS OK LET’S MAKE A BABY RIGHT NOW”

And they bang. Fade to black. That noise you hear is me screaming in the background

THE INDIAN CHILD WELFARE ACT (ICWA) WAS UPHELD TODAY BY THE SUPREME COURT!!!! This is a major victory for tribal sovereignty in the US. It is also a blow to pipeline companies, who were bankrolling the case. Read on. (A 7-2 majority with only Thomas and Alito dissenting!! A sweep.)

going from the reddit star wars fandom to the tumblr star wars fandom is giving me insane whiplash. the upside is that people aren’t bitching about every single imperfect detail in the entire franchise, but the downside is that i’ve seen more fanart of obi wan and commander cody tenderly knowing each other than i have ever wanted to in my life in the last three hours and it has probably fundamentally altered the way i interact with the entire franchise

after the initial shock of being plunged into the icy cold lake of seeing my childhood action figures caressing each others sweaty chests in a gentle, hidden moment after a battle, i’ve been able to get my wits about me and realize that yeah, i’m kinda with it

I like that Taylor Swift is getting introspective and having the courage to sing about her flaws and she should keep going. Taylor, I know you’re on tumblr, if you’re listening, here are some ideas:

  • Take advantage of your friendship with Trump in-law Karlie Kloss and start a fist fight at a Kushner dinner party and film it. This alone will go a very long way.
  • Release a track called “Climate Criminal” or “Fuck the Global South” about refusing to take personal responsibility for your disproportionate and wanton carbon emissions
  • release a track about how your attorneys harassed a microblogger who wrote about your appeal to racists
  • Release a track about how when you were 22 you aggressively pursued a grieving 17 year old
  • Re-release Better than Revenge and rewrite the lyrics slut shaming Camilla Belle

Just a few thoughts. Can’t wait to stream Midnight!
