A Thing of Beauty is A Joy Forever

"I made a big decision a little while ago. I don't remember what it was, which prob'ly goes to show That many times a simple choice can prove to be essential Even though it often might appear inconsequential. I must have been distracted when I left my home because Left or right I'm sure I went. (I wonder which it was!) Anyway, I never veered: I walked in that direction Utterly absorbed it seems, in quiet introspection. For no reason I can think of, I've wandered far astray. And that is how I got to where I find myself today." -Calvin (Bill Watterson)

I am genuinely tired of this whole implication that WOC such as myself disliking another woc character is somehow "racism". My dude if a character is written as being annoying and childish i will find said character annoying and childish. And if I feel like said character lacks in holding up the affection in a relationship i will say it how I see it.

Woc can fuck up they can be annoying and frustrating. We're not saints.

Saying that me finding someone annoying is racist is probably the worst sort of defence and I am genuinely tired of this argument.

I’m a woc as well and this narrative is exhausting, like be self aware enough to understand that we’re afforded feeling too, annoyance is just simply that annoyance. Pretty sure I get annoyed with my sisters and I’m pretty sure I’m not a racist.

It’s this narrative that we have to be on on best all the time and have solidarity to the point of no self that annoys the shit out of me. Give me break, I’m a person, Edwina was all over the place with her wants and needs and gave zero back to Kate.

She was annoying! Said about an Indian character by a desi woman. Said and done. I could go on really, but what’s the point if you don’t open your mind up?

SIMONE ASHLEY as KATE SHARMA Bridgerton Season Two (2022)

one-shot | 7.5k words | the tea shop au no one wanted

They fall asleep on the cold stone floor, his arm around her shoulders, her head on his bare chest.

She wakes up one hour later to an incessantly vibrating phone—Edwina, six missed calls—and slips out before Anthony wakes up too, before they have to do awkward goodbyes and so, this was fun but definitely a one-time thing, you understand, I’m a fancy Lord Bridgerton and you’re, well…you know.

Edwina gives her a knowing look; Kate threatens to tell Mary about the tequila body shots done off of Eloise’s stomach if she says even a word. Mutually assured destruction.

And that is, in all fact, the end of it.

Oh my god, today is just gems in the fanfic world!

[sweetesthaaze]

a fic rec for you! This is a smutty/emotional extension of the library/storm scene in 2x04 and it's BEAUTIFUL (if you take out the brackets the link should work): archiveofourown(.)org(/)works(/)38090533

This was so beautiful! We deserved a longer library scene! While I can't say I'm not glad we didn't get anything physical, we needed more bonding and them being vulnerable in this scene and that's exactly what this fic gave us! And more info on Kate!!!

This fic was SOOOO good, thank you so much for showing me!

At some point, staying becomes a weird badge of pride.
