Oh I Love This

may i pitch:

after the tdp chaos is over, aaravos be dead and everything’s all peaceful and stuff, callum’s gonna become a human archmage and chronicle the secrets of each arcanum. then maybe he opens a school so other humans who are interested in magic can learn an arcanum or arcanums — hell, possibly make it a human-elf merger for all who want to become a mage or archmage or whatever.

idk, i have very hogwarts-esque thoughts on how this school is like — the different arcanum tracks as the houses, so on and so forth. and this all just sat and festered a bit in the head while rebingeing book five. i think it would be a fun spin-off personally.

no, because if you kick every white traditional Christian out of the country, then who is going to ship k@taang bryke? 

THIS!! As a George stan, I don’t really see her as LESBIANLESBIANLESBIAN! as people often hype her up to be?

Maybe I can’t say this as I’m unlabelled/uncertain/haven’t really bothered to explore it in me, but I don’t really see George in that light. It’s the same with Velma, too.

Maybe I just don’t like how LGBTQ+ is more determined by a certain look or aesthetic and anyone who fits into that look or aesthetic is automatically LGBTQ+ when that’s not how it works.

Don’t get me wrong, I can see the vision, but Lesbian!George isn’t something I headcanon. I can see her as Bi, but that’s about it.

Is it internalized h0m0ph0bia? I dunno, I don’t think so (i’m a theatre major i’m surrounded by gays and i adore them how could i be?), but that’s my two cents.

So is anyone willing to talk about the way that there are a lot of people in the Nancy Drew fandom who stereotype George Fayne when they call her a lesbian and are also occasionally weirdly sexist in the way that they do it?

Like the man times I've seen, "She's independent. I can't picture her with a man." So anyone who is attracted to men is dependent on men, is that what you wanna imply?

"She's not traditionally feminine." So you wanna imply that you have to be feminine in some way to be attracted to men?

or "It's just the vibe I get from her." The vibe from what? Her short hair? Her love of sports? Or the two reasons that I've mentioned above?

Before anyone says anything about "respecting headcanons," I'm not going to respect headcanons that are disrespectful in nature. Specifically, if the ones saying stuff like this aren't lesbians. You need to do some self-reflection on how you view people.

there’s absolutely zero reason for it and i have not gotten to the later chapters yet but i think merula snyde and ben copper could be neat. 🤷‍♀️

i felt the need to repost bc this is cool and i want to remember it

Behold…the Elemental Compass! Everything my Legacyverse lore precariously rests upon until the Crystalized season prolly blows it out of the water!

continuing from this post, i think i’ve figured out why i ship talisto and i blame it all on holly black: jude duarte and cardan greenbriar are talia and mephisto coded.

lemme try to explain the dynamics.

Jude & Talia

What’s there to say? They’re both badass strategists and natural-born leaders. They will make themselves heard and will not take nor tolerate bullshit. They are both clever with their plans and also don’t trust easily. Their guards are up constantly and they don’t tell their allies/friends everything (ie Jude’s coup and the whole Princess Brenda thing). They have also adapted to the rapid and traumatic changes in their lives — Jude with the murder of her parents and Talia with the fall of Xeris — and of course the adapting to a new world.

Sure, Jude takes things to an extreme by pursuing murder on occasion, but you can’t tell me that Talia wouldn’t do the same in her shoes (albeit with some hesitancy, but none the less will do so as a last resort). These two girls are a force to be reckoned with, and do all the research necessary to make sure they know all the facts and know all the plays to win.

Cardan & Mephisto

I don’t need to explain this. It’s so obvious that Holly went so far as to basically make Mephisto Cardan’s faceclaim.

Cardan and Mephisto are both younger siblings, so they are familiar with the shadow of their older — and better, in the eyes of their father figures or something — siblings. They also both have no shame in being the villain of their stories while also being sorta carefree and charismatic I MEAN LOOK AT THEM!! But they also, deep in the core of their soul, have goodness and love inside, and a strong urge to protect and sacrifice everything for those closest to them (Jude and Praxina respectively). They grow over the duration of their screentime/booktime into lovable and openly more caring characters.

Seriously guys the parallels between them are right fucking there.

Jurdan & Talisto

What else can I say? Enemies-to-lovers is the superior trope and if the Jurdan dynamic — while slightly questionable bc ✨bully romance✨ and just general canonical confusion — doesn’t give you tingles, imagine the applied to Talisto’s already current dynamic. I can already see Talia’s fuming face ready to absolutely destroy Mephisto and his obnoxious, degrading laughter as he walks away in Faerieland during their lessons. I can also see how the turns have tabled with Talia holding a knife to Mephisto’s neck and Talia’s grinning face as she pulls of the greatest coup in history…

I guess what I’m saying is that I would not be opposed to a Talisto Cruel Prince AU because it just makes sense.

which is more culturally significant the renaissance or youtube shows created by 12-17 year olds playing with children’s toys.

will and matt but make it lego

THIS IS MY W.I.T.C.H. REWRITE IN A NUTSHELL--

Comic version? Cartoon version?

Just combine both together and have a jolly day

i just had thoughts of a zutara elemental au but i’m so conflicted on how it would work best — zuko be the ember to katara’s wade? or would katara work best as a water!ember and zuko a fire!wade???? I MEAN COME ON THIS WAS BOUND TO HAPPEN
