Updating a fic has me completely burned out, so I won’t write any “Valentine fics” (I’ll publish teasers later, though), but here, have some happy NagiRins. 😽 they’re completely in love, the sakura between them is a symbol to their foreverness orz

Happy day @moeblobmegane ! :D

[princesandromeda]

Oooook, I’m finally doing a decent pinned. with nagirin kyunkyaras as my welcome dolls, because they’re the cutest.

BYF: I do not have a DNI because I believe people will interact with me regardless of if I want them to or not, but fair warning that I am proship/profic and block liberally.

I write fics, my Ao3 is Princess_andromeda, fanfiction.net is Princesa andromeda, twitter is @ princesandrmeda (though it is locked atm).

Also lukewarm take but I don’t like it when journalists show fanart and fanfics of chacters to the actors that play them (referring to the recent Pitt interview). Specifically, explicit fan content.

Like I’m ok with the actors on their own looking at that stuff yk it’s the internet wtv. But it rubs me the wrong way then they are being shown it on camera as part of content yk?

Because also the artists and authors of that fan content cant really consent for their stuff to be used in that way and aren’t even getting paid for it (😭) while the media outlets who use them do. They are trying to get a reaction out of the actors by showing them that fan content, and while the intentions might not be malicious, it still comes off weird.

Unfortunately, it’s becoming commonplace for media outlets and journalists to do this kindof stuff. I’ve literally seen ticktok edits, fanart, and fan fiction(!!!) getting linked in substack articles. Famous example: HR fanfiction getting linked behind a paywall article

Listening to a podcast about Phillipe I, Duke of Orleans (bc ✨pride month✨) and I still think I could have written a better Barbie Musketeer adaptation, one where Barbie's character (Corinne D'Artagnan) lived during the reign of Louis XIV instead of Louis XV (who I suspect was the ML bc of his science-oriented character arc even though the hot air baloon is slightly anachronic). Not only is this about the timeline gap (Corinne is supposed to be D'Artagnan's daughter, the Musketeers is set during Louis XIII's reign… almost a hundred years apart from Louis XV's reign), but:

The "historical" D'Artagnan lived during Louis XIV's reign

Louis XIV (aggressively heterosexual and slightly homophobic king) brought ballet to France, so him bringing an art form that we consider "girly" with him remaining a masculine figure could be a counter to Corinne wanting to be a musketeer and a girl

the female musketeer squad could have been a secret squad selected by Anne of Austria, Louis XIV's mother, after her husband's distrust because of Carrinal Rochelieu's machinations because of her connections to Spanish and Austrian royalty

the main villain of the movie was Prince Phillipe, Louis' cousin, but if we had Louis XIV it would have been historically accurate to have Phillipe I Duke of Orleans as the antagonist (not to mention LGBTQ+ diverse but the writers were cowards)

tbh i just want Lully to be present in the film

Ideally my Barbie Musketeer adaptation would have been thus:

set during the last years of Anne of Austria as regent for Louis XIV

Focused on Louis XIV's transition from dolphin to king

Had the court believe him unfit for reigning bc of his love for ballet and getting the court to trust him through the building of Versailles (with him soundboarding the idea of a modern Panem et Circenses type of place to Corinne)

Had Phillipe and Mazarin's relative conspiring for Louis' throne (but defo having Phillipe showing care for his brother)

with Lully please i am begging on my knees please let me have my problematic gay composer

do you know your blood type??

yes, I'm certain of it

I think my family told me what it was but I'm not sure/no recent test to confirm

Every once in a while I've seen the sentiment like "I can't believe I'm still blocked by [person] for [thing that happened forever ago]" and I dunno, I kind of operate under the assumption that most people don't revisit their blocklists. Least of all to pass through it and judge which accounts are now unblock-worthy.

Like if you found me slightly annoying once in 2016 I simply assume I'm blocked forever.

Repost from 2020 Previous part

[thehighpriestofreverseracism]

Friendly reminder that the intro to Lion King….the non english bits leading up to the “circle of life” is not random yelling in *Africa voice* it is an actual language, Zulu, spoken by 10 million people, it is the most widely spoken language (out of 11) in the country of South Africa (1 out of the 54 countries in the continent of Africa, the continent home  to somewhere between 1500-2000 languages and around 3000 distinct ethnic groups)

this isn’t to say that you have to friggin learn the language to sing along with a disney film, it just means that you should be mindful, respectful, appreciative and respectful. don’t be yelling out whatever noise comes in to your head when you hear it

[melancholic-pie]

Ok but someone knows what does this say?

[thehighpriestofreverseracism]

The lyrics before the english comes in…in “circle of life”

Nants ingonyama bagithi baba [Here comes a lion, Father] Sithi uhm ingonyama [Oh yes, it’s a lion] Nants ingonyama bagithi baba [Here comes a lion, Father] Sithi uhm ingonyama [Oh yes, it’s a lion] Ingonyama [It’s a lion] Siyo Nqoba [We’re going to conquer] Ingonyama Ingonyama nengw’ enamabala [A lion and a leopard come to this open place] (repeats) [queue English lyrics]

I would like to further add that language has there own cultural nuances so something that can sound extremely meaningful in one languages may not sound as majestic when translated to another (I know this as someone who has an understanding of 5 languages and speaks 3 of them fluently) so if you are thinking “oh it ain’t that deep they are just yelling: the lion is coming!” dial it back

[haileyastraea]

Worth noting that “lion” and especially the word Ingonyama is a very respectful word to talk about a Zulu king, especially in praise. It’s so heavily associated with royalty in isiZulu that a different word is used for an animal lion - Ibhubesi. This isn’t just announcing the arrival of an animal, it’s celebrating the arrival (or coronation?) of the king

/\ Whoop, I didn’t know this

[toastbutteregg]

This is so informative thank you so much

[krakenartificer]

Lemme tell you, I was not dividing those syllables into words in the right places AT ALL

[the-loquacious-lark]

I would also like to state that the song “The Lion Sleeps Tonight” is an extremely washed out version of the original song “Mbube” by Solomon Linda, a South African musician. It was appropriated by the west and he never received credit or money for what became an extremely famous song. His family eventually received a small sum from Disney for the song but again, not much considering the history of the song. There is a documentary about it right now on netflix.

Notes on this post are genuinely incredible

[elumish]

I think one of the weirdest manifestations of heternormativity in slash fiction is the way that people will regularly make the character usually written as the bottom as poorer and make the character usually written as the top as richer.

[elumish]

In straight romance novels, it is the norm for the male main character to have greater social power than the main female character--he is generally wealthier, older, more well respected, more physical powerful, more well established. If you read a billionaire romance, the billionaire is the man unless stated otherwise. If you read a boss/subordinate romance, the boss is the man unless stated otherwise. Professor/student is assumed to be a male professor. Age gap is assumed to have an older man, to the point where straight romances with an older female main character are referred to as "reverse age gap."

Popular slash ships nearly always have an assigned top and bottom character, and it tends to be fairly consistent across fandom. It's not universal, and some fandoms lean less strongly towards this than others, but it is very common.

When you see fics with tropes like professor/student, age gap, sugar baby, boss/subordinate, billionaire, etc. they generally map pretty closely to top in the "male" role I described above and bottom in the "female" role.

Some of this is that characters who are younger or less socially powerful are often slated into the bottom role in fandom, but even in cases where there is not the same established canon power dynamic, the bottom will generally be put in a less socially powerful role in fanfiction.

[elumish]

Heated Rivalry has actually one of the most interesting versions of this that I've seen, because it's one of the few cases where we have canon top/bottom roles, but we also have two characters who have largely the same level of wealth of wealth and social power.

If anything, Shane Hollander likely has more wealth and arguably has more social power than Ilya Rozanov (Shane is a citizen of the country he lives in and is a beloved athlete for said country, seems to have better brand deals, wasn't sending money to family, owns a fair amount of property, and has more Cup wins).

(Obviously it is is more complicated than that, but at the very least there is not a clearly defined social power hierarchy between the two of them.)

And yet, from what I can tell, Sugar Daddy fics (a decent proxy for how wealth-related power dynamics are written) tend towards Sugar Daddy Ilya Rozanov over Sugar Daddy Shane Hollander.

I think some of this is as much about the fact that there are also (sexual) Dom/sub vibes between them, which does tend to track with those Sugar Daddy fics as well, but the fact that the way people write about wealth maps to the way they write about sexual power dynamics is super interesting.
