This is fine

33|She/They|Bi|Asexual|Hey, I'm Ali and welcome to my terrible blog that I run. I'm not sorry about the rush of things I reblog whenever I am online. My background and sidebar image were made by my lovely significant other Phee, who called me gay for writing it like that

Commission

[vaguely-concerned]

they've barely exchanged ten words at this point btw. like for sure they eventually have the extra bond of being painfully aware of the dangers of forbidden magic and the burden of keeping horrible secrets, but there's clearly some basic one shared braincell compatibility going on beneath that and it's on sight

like father who isn't even aware he's about to get out the adoption papers once more like daughter who has not yet gotten around to semi-orphaning herself :')

Squire Affirmations

I will not trip and fall down the stairs while carrying all of my knights armor again

The horses love me

I am not in love with the wizard apprentice

I love explicit fanfic. I love smutty shipping. I love horny one shots. I love filthy erotic nasty longfics.

I love character or plot driven fic that uses sex as a tool for characterization, conflict and catharsis, and I love fic that exists solely to be hot and sexy.

Fanfiction exists for TWO reasons:

Dealing with complex thoughts and emotions I can't work through in therapy, like grief, despair, a complicated relationship with pain and addiction

Seeing the same characters fuck over amd over again

As someone who was alive when Bob Ross (and William Alexander before him — that’s where the approach is from) was on PBS, I can 100% testify that you can paint along with him.

You may need to learn how to set up your paints and such… but this is what people did, live, while the show aired. That’s what the show was for. I had family members create lovely works of art they enjoyed, which I still have on my walls, because William Alexander and Bob Ross both said:

SCREW METICULOUS CLASSICAL ART PRACTICES — JUST GRAB A PALETTE KNIFE AND BIG OLD BRUSH AND PAINT!

They freed a whole generation of people who were taught to paint detail and realism and exact representation of reality — people who largely gave up this kind of thing because it got tedious.

I watched the joy of family members as they rediscovered art as a messy fun spontaneous half hour activity.

Give it a try.

Revisiting Jill and Wesker's dialogue in RE1 Remake with the hallway scene is sooooo interesting because even though we know Wesker is actively lying and manipulating the situation as needed in both routes, the way he chooses to interact with Jill says a lot about what their working relationship must've been like. With Chris, Wesker is overly curt and gives direct orders. He doesn't make conversation, it's all to the point. Even after the Lisa fight, all he says is he'll remain in the area.

When Jill finds him, Wesker says "So you're safe" (in contrast to how he uses "alive" with Chris, smirking - which is an interesting word difference). Jill isn't afraid to confront him for disappearing (even though he's her superior officer). Wesker actually apologizes for disappearing. Jill is explicitly relieved that he's okay (again, very open and casual, which we see with Barry too). Wesker 'confides' in her about Barry, but mentions that he's unsure about his observations and that he has questions about the area yet to be explored. It's Jill that volunteers to keep an eye on Barry and investigate the area - rather than Wesker giving a direct order. Wesker even encourages her ("I'm counting on you") before leaving.

It's such a small interaction but I think it does say something about their dynamic pre RE1 - it's a lot of back and forth! They approach each other as equals! Wesker doesn't present himself as someone with ultimate authority or even with certainty in that moment, which seems like such an odd way to present himself when he really has no need to. He could approach the encounter as closed off and direct as he does with Chris but he chooses to go about Jill an entirely different way.

I think Jill's route generally gives a better idea of what S.T.A.R.S. was like as a team where she actually gets to interact with Barry and Wesker, and both dynamics add a lot more to the sense of betrayal (Barry being forced to choose between his family and his friends while his life too is in danger, Wesker and Jill feeling more on equal footing vs. the reveal where he mocks her and calls her 'smart girl' and 'dear', Jill realizing that both Wesker and Barry were dangers to her all along).
