due to bad opinions in my notes: shout out to aromantics who are fucking exhausted. society can feel extremely arophobic and amatonormative at times and sometimes the best you can do is try to get through situations without losing parts of yourself. The task of changing these deeply ingrained beliefs about relationship hierarchies and the status romantic relationships have in our society is a monumental one and it does not rest solely on your shoulders as one individual. There are moments where you can be boldly and loudly aromantic and there are moments where it is better to protect yourself. There are people who are happy to educate others and there are people who just want to live their lives without taking on that responsibility. It's okay. get some rest.

If only we could’ve actually had the Lestrade Spin Off.. the information that we could’ve learned off him.. the scenes where he’s just oblivious and not always there when Sherlock is in trouble or not…

I still mourn for the loss of this..

[barachiki]

Did you forget about the scene where Lestrade is just in his flat, doing dishes for a good solid seven minutes, humming to himself when he gets a call and eventually goes to a crime scene....

You know... this scene!

Ok, for real though, I have always said that I'd spend an hour a week watching Lestrade doing dishes. Here it is in action!

the best fanfiction you've ever read was written by a woman in her 40s before she made dinner for her kids. it was written by a teenager after school when they should've been studying for a history test. and a barista came up with the idea while they cleaned the espresso machine and busser fact-checked it on their break and the post-doc edited between writing grant proposals and the nurse apologized for typos in the notes after a long shift and behind every drabble and one-shot and multi-chapter fic there is a person with a wonderful and interesting and chaotic life and it is such a privilege that we get to be apart of it because they decided to do this thing we all share, for fun.

help out a disabled transsexual with disability aid & furniture costs !

will put my whole situation under the cut as to not clog people's dashboards but tldr ; stuck in a bordering on abusive relationship , unable to move , need help affording things to make my life a little more bearable & easy. amzn wishlist here , ppal here for other donos. sharing if you're unable to financially help goes a long way & I'm forever grateful 🫀

DO NOT TAG AS ANY DONO TAGS SO THIS DOESNT GET SHADOWBANNED , THANK YOU

I've been dating my gf for over a year now , she's recognised as my carer & currently receives benefits for that reason. however she has recently ( since about 4 months ago ) been treating me worse & worse ; constantly getting mad at me for being too disabled to even get out of bed somedays , calling me "useless" for being too physically disabled to stand for long enough to cook anything that needs constant attention , saying I was a leech on her life once for being financially dependant ( I get £300 a month via disability benefits , i have no financial support system to fall back on outside of this , she gets £400 & has a very well off family that supports her ) etc etc. my current plan is to attempt to get on universal credit & then apply for council housing , with UC my rent will be paid & with council housing I can have a house suited to my needs as a physically disabled person. the only issue is the uk gov moves incredibly slow on these things , it took me a rejection & 10 months just to get on benefits. so , for now , I have to try to work with the situation I'm currently in. I've tried multiple times now to mend me & my gfs relationship but she continues to fail to put in the work ( there is , a lot more issues not discussed here but they aren't as relevant to my financial issues ). essentially , I need help affording some basics for my currently very barren room that she is frankly refusing to further help with. things that'll make this space my own while I try to stay sane through all this. I would open comms to make ends meet but with my pain & fatigue getting worse I'm already horrifically behind on my current queue , so I do apologise for not being able to offer anything in return.

basically uh , help my disabled ass survive through this please ? 🐕‍🦺🫀

Honestly, the lord of the rings needs more arranged marriages fics because they’re all nobles except for Sam and “betrothed couple who’ve never met thrown together on quest and they don’t yet realize it” is always a banging trope.

Take Gimli and Aragorn for example. Their marriage is arranged for political reasons when they all thought Aragorn being the king was not a possibility and the rangers were struggling and needed Dwarven support. This adds a touch of forbidden romance spice and some more tragic pining to Aragorn and Arwen’s romance, and potentially even more to Gimli’s and Legolas’s. And I want to see the realization moment when they all realize that Aragorn and one of his best bros are engaged. And they have to figure out how to get out of it.

Or, take Pippin and Legolas. I know, I know, but hear me out. Pippin, being the some of the Thane, is kind of a prince among hobbits, or as close as one can get. This is how it Translates to Thranduil who has been searching for a suitable match for his son, who refuses to find a mate. He (likely in a fit of rage after Legolas refused again) told him he was going to betroth him to the Prince of somewhere tiny and unheard of and sucks to be him etc (or else he likes the shire vegetables or something and wanted an alliance for trade reasons idk) and the Tooks agree to this for prestige reasons.

Anyway they meet and Legolas realizes two things: that “Prince” was a stretch, and holy shit this kid is five. He was used to humans who were adults when they were Pippin’s age. NOT THIS. So Legolas is panicking and avoiding Pippin at all costs because help he’s so young and he CANT MARRY HIM and Pippin is just blissfully unaware of all of this because he hasn’t connected the dots that this elf prince is his elf prince and Legolas is scrambling for away out and that’s how he winds up having a shotgun wedding with one of the others, probably either Gimli or Boromir, who doesn’t mind because this will get his dad off his aroace ass

anyway Legolas and Gimli for political reasons is always fun,

but so is Gimli and Frodo. And then they very soon realize that this is not it, and after talking for a while, are pretty sure they can get out of it ok the grounds that their relatives were bonking

Also I think there should be a fic where Boromir is struggling internally with what he should do with Aragorn when he gets home because he knows Denathor won’t like his line being ousted, and will treat Aragorn badly, so he decides the only way to have Aragorn be king and make his dad happy is if he married Aragorn.

But honestly, the likeliest one to actually happen is probably Aragorn and either Merry or Pippin, possibly Frodo. Because of the whole Shire/Rangers relationship thing.

And I want to watch them all groan in horror when they realize any one of these things out

Lotr ships that I think deserve more attention:

Gimli/Aragorn - as with most Gimli ships, if he were conventionally attractive, people would be shipping them in droves. “The hug,” they’d say. “That arm touch as Aragorn walks by in Helm’s Deep.” They’d call the way Aragorn shushes Gimli’s snoring in Lothlorian “painfully domestic” and it would find its way into fics at every turn. The fact that Gimli was the one to present Aragorn’s crown at the coronation would be turned into 40000 fics based on the idea that that seems like a job for a consort. You know I’m right. Like yeah they seem like platonic besties but you could say that about literally all of them. These two deserve more love is what I’m saying.

Boromir/Legolas - I’ve talked about these two before but I’m happy to do so again. A)Legolas’s face when Boromir dies, but B) T hey’re both heirs to their kingdoms (or were raised as such.) They were both have dickish fathers and have lost their mothers. They are both extremely passionate about their friends, Legolas when defining Aragorn and Gimli from insult and Boromir with the hobbits. They could bond and learn things from each other, and I think the contrast between Boromir’s sensible attitude towards the trip and Legolas’s very whimsical “I’ll just walk on top of the snow” attitude would be very very funny. Also, Boromir coming home to Denathor with an elf boyfriend and the heir to Mirkwood just has such endless story potential. I want a crack fic where Denathor thinks Legolas is a woman and Legolas is gunning for not telling him otherwise. Gimli and Aragorn are the best men at their wedding.

Boromir/Gimli - the most sensible couple out there. They’re comfortable and kind and collectively they have absolutely bonkers friends, and they love the hobbits like theyre their own children

There are definitely more
