painting a picture here: i think that there’s no way nicholas and seiji aren’t falling in love within their first year knowing each other. aiden and harvard are already there, they just need a little nudge. eugene and jesse are a long con: they’re gonna meet a million times over the course of their school years, but jesse will fall in love with the flirting, and he’s not going to actually call eugene back until right before they graduate when he realizes he fucked up and it’s now or never. and nathan and zayn? well. ha. very frustrating chance meeting in a bar ten years later.
So, does your new city's library have Fence comic volumes 3-7 and (if so) have you gotten the chance to read them yet?
no they don’t </3333 at least online,,, I haven’t been able to go in person yet bc I’m busy and my parents have things to do but I THINK IM GOING SOON I will look so hard and read them all in one sitting if I can o777
Suddenly struck with a need to explain to you how boat pronouns work (I work in the marine industry).
When you're talking about the design of the boat, you say "it".
When the boat is still being built, your say "it".
When the boat is nearing completion, you can say "it" or "she".
When the boat is floating in the water you probably say "she", unless there is still a lot of work to be done (e.g. no engine yet) then you say "it".
When the boat is officially launched and operating, you say "she". If you continue to say "it" at this point you are not incorrect but suspiciously untraditional. You are not playing the game.
If you are referring to a boat you don't really know anything about you may say "it" ("there's a big boat, it's coming this way"). But if you know its name, it's probably "she" ("there's the Waverley, she's on her way to Greenock").
If you are talking about boats in general, you say "it" ("when a boat is hit by a wave it heels over")
If you speak about a boat in complimentary terms, it's "she" ("she's a grand boat"). If you are being disparaging it may be it, but not necessarily ("it's as ugly as sin", "she's a grotty old tub").
If she has a boy's name, she's still she. "Boy James", "King Edward", "Sir David Attenborough"? The pronoun is she.
If it's a dumb barge (no engine), you say it. But if it's a rowing boat (no engine), you say she.
I hope this has cleared things up so that you may not be in danger of misgendering floating objects.
ok thanks yous pls reblog just for me this is so !!!! so yes!!!! I dont even care if you don’t know the characters just click a button for me pretty please
reading this deposition that just got dropped where someone sued musk and ohhhh my god it is this funniest thing ever . i can see why his lawyer tried to keep this confidential . they’re both maybe the biggest idiots . this is like ace attorney
genuinely first two pages he says that he thinks ben’s lawyer is the one who is actually suing him and admits he has no clue what the lawsuit is about .
I don't think Mark can ever top "INDEED, MR. JONES, INDEED" and "AND THAT IS HOW I KNOW YOU LIED TO ME" from the first Sandy Hook trial in Texas (not to be confused with Chris Mattei, the attorney in the Connecticut trial), but this part
MR. SPIRO: Do you give these lectures at all of your depositions?
MR. BANKSTON: I do, and you can watch them.
is ESPECIALLY hilarious to me having listened to multiple depositions Mark has had to take in the Sandy Hook case, where he has needed to lecture EVERY. SINGLE. ATTORNEY. at some point in the case about how they're violating Texas Rule XYZ, because they all, to a one, did something seriously ethically questionable during the deposition.
like, YOU CAN WATCH/LISTEN TO HIS DEPOS. HE DOES HAVE TO GIVE THOSE LECTURES EVERY TIME. IT'S NOT EVEN A JOKE.
I wish fence comics were more angsty... Maybe things have changed since I've stopped checking out, but all the fruits all the seeds of angst ARE there!!! There is no necessary to get fully turbo angsty, but I wish they were more angsty. Like, Nick's abusive household and the way he wasn't properly loved by his family, Seiji's nervous perfectionism and difficulties with communication and social clues and loneliness, Aiden's mommy and daddy issues, Harvard's pressure due to being a cap of the whole team, etc.
ok thanks yous pls reblog just for me this is so !!!! so yes!!!! I dont even care if you don’t know the characters just click a button for me pretty please
I did abandon my transmasc eugene HC for this but I do think he’d be chill dressing more feminine around people he’s super comfortable with but other than that not really. I only put him in the wedding dress cuz I found a reference image that I thought was funny lol. Sometimes we sacrifice our head canons for biceps.
I do believe that Jesse only styles his hair when at school or with his dad like his “trouble” was quite literally fashionable bedhead like he doesn’t care he thinks he looks hot either way so I did draw him with long Charlie-spring-esque hair in everything but the wedding doodle.
I think their dynamic would be Jesse being a clingy little bitch who’s constantly in a bad mood and Eugene just being there like a ray of fucking sunshine BUT I think when they started dating Eugene already knew about jesse’s history with Nick and Seiji and was like “nope nope nope cute boy bad person shitty brother Seiji ex nononono SNAP OUT OF IT” but Jesse didn’t know abt Nick and honestly kinda forgot/didn’t care (?) abt Seiji and/or didn’t know Seiji knew Eugene and therefore was like “what the fuck it this guys problem ask me out”
Hi i doodled my sona. also im kissing Susie Deltarune. ok? ok. thanks. their ship name is susen or Susan and it can be represented by Susan, who is ofc a twice divorced middle aged southern mama
me: fencing isn't the violent way of settling debates it was created to be, and it's not the sophisticated sport it's portrayed as in media. the truth is, fencing culture--
the 16th century french ghost who died in a duel that i summoned just to talk about fencing: oui you already explained the epee foot fetish jokes can i please go now
one of the best parts of making up increasingly wild and specific aus with a friend is sending them posts like "this is sooo blorbo in torture chamber au number 15" and they reply back like "YESSS btw have i told you about my latest idea for how to torture them even more" and you get to enjoy a little snack and kick your feet with glee
uhm so like it’s called letters to myself and it’s Seiji having a bad time and a lot of self hatred and OCD and being unable to move on and yeah and ok thanks!!!!
“Jesse,
My therapist is having me do this. I’m in her office currently. I won’t be showing her this. I’m not even talking to Jesse, just myself. Gina says it’s to “get my feelings out”…
-Seiji”
wow wow enticing isn’t it you should like totally go read wahaaaaaaat anyways POEM BOMB 💥💥💥💥 and yes this is in the fic shhhhhh go read ittttt…
hate
i didnt think i was capable of hating until i walked out of your life
the pieces fell into place
the panic, the worrying, the eggshells
your illusion of a safety net that im too familiar with
the safety net i occupy with those that arent you
you
you with your first degree burn
you in a word
you laying facing away
in a deserted rocky plain
if you are the sun
i am the dark side of the moon
the new moon
the other solar system
the asteroids that burn in your atmosphere
how romantic for a bitch
how romantic for a prude
how romantic for a whore
addicted to hate and harm and porn
shoving bugs into your mouth
gnash teeth to chew
hate
how much have i begun to hate since i walked out of your life?
you, only you
when i see reminders of you im scared
scared youll be back
someone mentioned a game you showed me
the color light blue and dogs
i still have your address memorized
i wish i could send live bees just to confuse you
but the silent treatment works and the silent treatment is what you preferred
but was it all my fault for being a child and depressed and unwell
