»we Change Each Other« By Shilpa Gupta (+)

I haven’t really seen any fancasts of David Wymack, but when I was reading TFC for the second time I saw he had “tribal tattoos” and my brain just immediately went to Dwayne Johnson. i don’t really know why, but it made for an entertaining read-through. Like picture Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson wrangling a five foot tall Andrew Minyard. Picture Dwayne Johnson, The Scorpion King, having an aneurysm every time Neil “Human Disaster” Josten calls out the Moriyamas. Picture him listening to Kevin whine about how much the Foxes suck for hours on end. Dwayne Johnson letting Allison paint his nails on a long, boring bus ride. It’d be like that movie The Pacifier, except like fifty times worse. 

the raven cycle female characters: three psychic women with very different personalities who live together and raise a kid together, a 600-year-old witch, a tall girl who wears bell bottoms and orange nail polish and flirts with her customers over a psychic phone line, a morally ambiguous woman who earns the disapproval of her family by dabbling around in the darker parts of magic and doing it for fame not morality, a rich socialite with a helicopter license who’s described as beautiful but unattainable 

the raven cycle fandom: CAN WE TALK ABOUT HOW MISUNDERSTOOD DECLAN LYNCH IS

why almost everyone consider that Ronan is passive?? can u explain it pls i'm just trying to get this shit right (also bless u n ur hcs)

aaaaa ok. so. like ronan is into adam (so. so into adam) and he has been for so so long and he hasnt acted on it. and hes not planning to act on it. it hasnt even occurred to him that adam might reciprocate his feelings? like, he hasnt even had that thought, that adam could ever– he does nice things for adam and he doesnt even expect any acknowledgment or anything? or repayment? its not bc hes hoping adam will like him back or whatever, hes actually so far gone for him that he doesnt care if adam likes him back???? because he never will, ronans reconciled with that, adam doesnt like him like that and its fine ??? he doesnt care ?? 

hmm also i feel like, to me anyway, theres definitely this ~double side~ thing about ronan’s character, i.e. that he looks like bad news / tough guy / punk, u know? he drinks and he drives recklessly and he fucks with danger on the daily. so youd sort of expect him to be dominant or whatever? but i read this whole side of his character as a sort of facade and like a wall hes built around himself to not get hurt? bc the world fucks you up – if u show emotions or are vulnerable or anything youll get wrecked? like, ronan’s facade of having no feelings is actually him trying to deal with the fact that he has so many feelings. like, fuck off, he feels everything he feels so much. but hes been hurt enough bc of that so he tries to shut it down and act cool or whatever? eh, so u get the idea hes like. dominant, yeah. but um, hes not. 

also he is super super inexperienced ok he doesnt understand the concept of casual relationships At All ??? and hes rly rly gone for adam he just wants to make him happy so maybe that plays a role as well? like he puts himself second and adam first so like. idk lets adam do with him what he wants sounds sort of harsh but ?? yeah

There is a specific and terrifying difference between “never were” monsters and “are not anymore” monsters

“The thing that was not a deer” implies a creature which mimics a deer but imperfectly and the details which are wrong are what makes it terrifying

“The thing that was not a deer anymore” on the other hand implies a thing that USED to be a deer before it was somehow mutated, possessed, parasitically controlled or reanimated improperly and what makes THAT terrifying is the details that are still right and recognizable poking out of all the wrong and horrible malformations.
