I need to see some court politics drama in the next books. We had so far Feyre's and the night court's pov. (But we know she is kind of an unreliable narrator.)

Anyway we had many books around the night court, it's kind of getting boring so I want to see other courts, learn their culture and meet new people, because I'm done with the ic.

I want to see the seasonal courts bond over how they were all fucked up once or twice by Rhysand and team up, especially on meetings against him.

I mean I don't believe spring court fae (not Tamlin, just spring court fae generally) who now are refugees in summer court had to leave their lives, homes, carriers and adapt to a new place. A new court isn't mad at Feyre. I would be furious if an arrogant ex-human who just gained power and learned how to read on a child book level out of petty revenge made my home unsafe and unliveable.

Or summer court fae who has to deal with the refugee issues and having a whole nation in their court now. Also the ic stole the book which def stung a little, and Cas ruined a whole ass building by being an idiot.

I just don't believe they not frown when they know the ic is coming again, and think what will go wrong again, stolen, insulted or ruined again.

I don't believe Kallias is okay knowing a daemati killed many of the winter court 's fae child and Rhys just shook it off with "twasn't me". Sure he owed him in a way but so far Rhysand thinks he has the courts in his palm as playthings. And don't get me started on how he acted with Eris and thinks he owns Lucien's loyalty through the bond with Elaine.

I hope the courts team up and make the plots more interesting. Those bats and Feyre seriously need. some karma, from the seasonal courts. Or at least would give some color to the plot anyway. Even if it would just be mentioned as a side note that spring fae wearing anti inner circle shirts and burning feyre dolls would make it more layered story. Consequences have actions, I would like to see that on the night court too.

last reblog: out of all of the LDS/FLDS docs out there, i can't recommend Trust Me: The False Prophet enough. it's a real life erin brockovich/legally blonde type thing. christine wears pink trenchcoats and cowboy boots and unequivocally is one of the most compassionate people i've ever seen.

i know lots of people who eventually escape cults do turn to deprogramming as a career choice, to help whomever else they can. but christine's compassion to the exact group of people that so many were so quick to not only dismiss, but despise, is so genuinely noble and kind that thinking about it makes me cry. her desire to humanize the people who remain in FLDS feels very much like harm reduction to me. giving people space and resources and kindness and showing them as human.

and julie? god. what a fucking legend. all of the strength i've seen in my own mother post her divorce with my terrible father is seen in julie, yes, but the absolute vulnerability to grapple with knowing you have done wrong by your children but then demonstrating what it actually means to take accountability is...it's a level of strength i can only be inspired by. there is no pride or ego in her choices, her deconstruction of her beliefs and life path is such a hard fucking journey and she does it for her children and herself.

and dawn being the only capable person on the side of the FBI, this being her last case that was hilariously and constantly bumbled by local cops and CPS, and her perservering despite that.

anyway if you watch any anti-cult deprogramming thing, please watch Trust Me: The False Prophet. it will give you hope.

Hey, just a heads-up, I closed my inbox for the time being. I'm not really active here at the moment, what you see is queued/scheduled and I'll keep posting it here because posting this on bsky would be pain for me with the character limit. I've been thinking of limiting my social media time to just one social media but yeah, bsky is kinda limiting for my legacies so I'm ""dumping"" them here instead! I don't know how people post their stories over there haha, I'd be too stressed out trying to make it fit.

If you need me, as I said, I'll be on bluesky!

I'm so happy to see new dca y/n designs and oc's everytime. Feels like finding out you have a cool new neighbor in town. Like omg look at them they're awesome cant wait to hear about them tell me everything !!!

Just love to see new blorbos drop every now and then ヾ(＾-＾)ノ♡

And they all are so different and unique too because people put parts of themselves in them so they are all so distinctly themselves and unlike anything else

Ok this is just my opinion. I think saying that Rei and Mao are the most popular Beyblade couple worldwide (except in Japan) is pretty outdated because I can only see many people not caring much for them and prefer non-canon ships, or they think they both would've worked out better with other characters. Of course, they are considerably very popular but, these days, I have seen many people not liking the idea of them together. Like it's cliche or very usual, or sometimes they give off sibling like vibe (to me they never did HONESTLY. A guy can be equally dearie with his partner like with his sister).

As for my opinion, I do like them and they are my first preferences for each other.
