Valentine Is Actually Really Good At Painting. He Loves Oil Paints And He Paints Delicate, Calm Landscapes.

the nazi israeli army must be stopped like actually its insane this has gone on for this long

tbh i don't think people really understand how dire the water situation is in the west bank. the last time i was in palestine, i could only shower once a month. ONCE A MONTH. we simply did not have enough water to sustain my whole family, because israel controls palestinians' water supply and does not give us enough to sustain ourselves in the long run. plus the water isn't very clean so it was very easy to get sick all the time. when we say that "palestinians drink more olive oil than water", it's not genuinely such a silly hyperbole as you might think.

I desperately want to write a monster high fanfic and I have everything but the plot I am distraught

SERIOUSLY I was up until 12:30 last night writing because I don’t have any other time 😭😭

Seems unfair that I don't have 18 hours a day to read and write fanfiction. Sleep? Work? What are these nonsense tasks?

This was posted almost 24 hours ago but it's always good to remind people to buy eSims for Palestinians. Israelis always cuts off Gaza whenever it's committing its most heinous crimes

The fact Val probably changed his accent because of the Cold War

Following/during the later stages of WWII, tensions between the US (and thereby Western Europe/NATO) and the USSR (Eastern Europe/Warsaw Pact) became so high that proxy wars and nuclear power were at every corner.

At that point in the world, Val wouldn’t be able to keep his accent. Val’s whole deal is getting people to LIKE HIM. He will DIE if people don’t like him. If he opens his mouth in 1950s United States and spews a “Soviet/communist accent” (Romania was part of the Soviet Bloc but was not an SSR), do you think people would like him? No

He had to change his accent to stay alive in America

(This also means it’s very recent; to him 70 years is the equivalent of last month. Which explains why he falters so much)

Valentines real accent is definitely a MESS

He’s been everywhere a million times, and every time, the language is different. He definitely merges them and his real accent picked up traces of nearly everywhere he’s been. He uses the southern one often (even when he doesn’t need to) just because it’s easier for everyone else

The real one comes out when he’s tired, or cranky (which is quite often), or when he’s talking too fast, or not paying enough attention to it to fix it

Spelldon loves it. He loves the stories it tells of places he was never allowed to go. Of eras and cities and empires he missed out on

CELESTIA LUDENBERG, GODDAMMIT

It just hit me that Valentine’s (who canonically loves animals) love interest is the son of a witch notorious for turning people into animals

I don’t know what to do with that information just putting it out there

I see her like that too. Especially since Val didn’t get any of his magic back from her love, I don’t know if she loves him or if she’s just “obligated” to deal with him since she’s his mom

kinda realising that i hc val's mother to be a bit neglectful and disinterested in val. what do you all hc his mother to be like?
