you ever had the feeling where you just look at someone and feel...pleasantly squishy?
Things people call Gabrielle that I like and donât like:
Like:
âMy lightâ (Xena)
âMy sourceâ (Xena)
âOnly friendâ (Xena)
âSweetheartâ (Xena)
âMy soulmateâ (Xena)
âLittle oneâ (Aphrodite)
âXenaâs little bitchâ (Alti)
Donât like:
âIrritating blondeâ (Callisto, Ares, Joxer)
âUseless tag-alongâ (Janice)
âPesky little friendâ (Ares)
âBlonde harpyâ (Ares)
âBlondeyâ (Tara)
Feel free to add. Besides Joxer I feel like Gabrielle gets dogged on the most and people call her mean things. But Xena does really make up for that with all the very beautiful romantic things she calls her all throughout.
"gender is a social construct": fairly easy for leftists to understand
"race is a social construct": a bit harder to swallow for some but still reasonable
"mental illness is a social construct": this one gets you hate mail in your inbox
Gotta add previous tags on here, because this is gonna live rent free in my head from now on. The stars are real, constellations are not. Damn. Tags by @smoreofbabylon (if you donât want me to put you on blast like this Iâll delete lol!)
"the stars are real, but the constellations are socially constructed"

"I didn't know where else to go⌠so I came here."
"Can I stay? Just for tonight?"
"You make me feel like I'm not too much."
"I'm scared you'll stop loving me if I show you everything."
"I don't need you to fix it. Just⌠be here."
"You remembered. No one ever remembers."
"I didn't know love could feel like this."
"I didn't know how much I needed this until now."
"You always were my home."
"I don't know how to ask for help without feeling like a burden."
"I'm trying so hard not to cry right now."
"You're the only person who makes me feel safe."
"I didn't think anyone would notice I was hurting."
"Everyone needs someone to lean on sometimes."
"You can always lean on me. I will hold you up."
"I'm just so tired of it all. But never of you."
"We are not there yet, but I know eventually we will be."
"I wish I could be the version of me you see."
"I don't know how to be okay without pretending."
"With me, you will never have to pretend."
"I'm scared of what happens if I let you love me."

When Your Character Kisses Someone...
kissing is never JUST kissing. It's never just two mouths colliding. If that's all that's happening, your scene is a wet napkin. A kiss in fiction (and yeah, okay, in life too) is a loaded little explosion of everything unsaid, and that's exactly where you want to dig your greedy narrative fingers.
Ask yourself: why now? Why are these two (or more.hey, I'm not here to kinkshame) kissing right now in the story? What's the emotional temperature? Not just "they like each other," but, are they angry? Scared? Confused? Desperate? Did one of them just save the other from falling off a building and now they're like "oops, my tongue is in your mouth"? Cool. Love that. But tell me what it means.
Because the kiss is never about lips. It's about stakes. Something is changing in the dynamic. The air is shifting. The line is being crossed, whether they're aware of it or not.
And while we're here, can we stop with the lip clichĂŠs? "His lips crashed into hers." "Their mouths moved in perfect sync." Are they a dance crew? Are they syncing Bluetooth? Please. I beg of you. Give me something real. Give me shaky hands and awkward nose bumps. Give me inner monologue chaos. Give me one of them panicking because they just realized this is actually happening and what the hell do they do with their hands? Hell, give me teeth clacking if the mood fits. (You know you've had at least one kiss where that happened. Don't lie.)
The kiss is not just for the reader, NO, it's for the character. Your job isn't to write the kiss your readers are expecting. Your job is to write the kiss your character has been inching toward. The one that makes them stop breathing for a second. The one that flips some switch in their ribcage and makes them go, oh.
So don't zoom in on the mechanics. Zoom in on the impact. Zoom in on the character who was absolutely sure they weren't in love until this exact second. Zoom in on the character who's been pushing the other away and finally lets them in for half a heartbeat. Zoom in on the terrified, heart-thudding quiet after the kiss, when neither of them knows what to say because the world just kind of... shifted a little.
Write that.
Saw this on Pinterest. Made me laugh so I'm sharing it.
You ever think about how unified humanity is by just everyday experiences? Tudor peasants had hangnails, nobles in the Qin dynasty had favorite foods, workers in the 1700s liked seeing flowers growing in pavement cracks, a cook in medieval Iran teared up cutting onions, a mom in 1300 told her son not to get grass stains on his clothes, some girl in the past loved staying up late to see the sun rise.
there are scriptures all over the world painstakingly crafted hundreds of years ago with paw prints and spelling mistakes or drawings covering up mistakes. a bunch of teenage girls 2000 years ago gathered to walk around their hometown, getting fast food and laughing with their friends. two friends shared blankets before people lived in houses. a mother ran a fine comb through her childâs hair and told it to stop squirming sometime in the 1000s. there are covered up sewing mistakes in couture dresses from the 1800s, some poor roman burnt their food so well past recognition that they just buried the entire pot. there are broken dishes hidden in gardens of people no one even remembers anymore
children eleven thousand years ago enjoyed jumping around in puddles made from the footprints of a giant sloth. children loved muddy puddles so long ago there were still megafauna alive
Thereâs a record of an emperor of Japan in the 9th century talking about his cat - how pretty it is, and how it stalks birds and curls up in a circle and meows mournfully for company and escaped its collar. All completely normal ordinary cat things. And then it ends with him saying âit is superior to all other catsâ. I am delighted to be united across 1200 years with this fellow cat owner with exactly the same feelings about his cat that I have about mine.
