21: do you have a good gaydar?

i have very good gaydar. bidar? idk i can spot My People.

these are all beautiful but why no NurseyDex???? or Charmer???

Hello my friend @literarylibido, I have included Nurseydex on this post here, as well as Whiskey/Tango/Foxtrot.  As far as Charmer goes: 

Caitlin knows, or has been told, that the colour of her home team, the San Jose Sharks, is teal. She grew up in Santa Cruz which is close enough to the San Jose area that it’s the most convenient airport to fly home to, and she’s aware that the colour is teal. She has no actual concept of what teal is until she meets Chris. 

Not that she sees teal the first time she meets Chris - when he crashes into her while doing piggyback races, and they cascade into a leaf pile - or even the second time she interacts with him, because their first half-date is hardly momentous. The first time she sees teal is after she’s gone to the Samwell Hockey game that’s a couple days after their first date, and sees Chris get a shutout and sees him celebrate with the boys on his team (The hockey guys all call this a celly but she doesn’t really know why?). She can see the pure joy in his body while they jump up and down in their skates and crash into each other, and she thinks to herself “I could spend the rest of my life watching Chris Chow be happy” and catches her first glimpse of teal in the clothing of the audience. What it is doesn’t really hit home until she’s in Chris’s dorm room later, and there’s teal everywhere. Even on Chris’s braces, which is dorky and adorable and she kind of loves it. She kind of, she realises, loves him. The rest of the colours filter in faster than the first did, and by the end of the month she can see all of them. And Chris is always so happy about everything that she doesn’t have a single shred of fear when she tells him she can see colours now because of him. 

honestly probably not…..

literarylibido replied to your post: so like. i want to watch The Get Down but i don’t...

but watch it anyways!!!

THIS IS AN ADORABLE ASK THANK YOU SO MUCH

hiya monica! I also love reading. big hint: no one ever tells u that u get mad tired of reading ur own writing and it’s nowhere near as fun lol (and thank you!)

Yes.  Actually, I originally assumed that was the design after I saw the trailer.  I then disreguarded it because:

A) If it was the same plasma stream, I don’t  understand why there would be any noticeable time delay between the blade and crossguard

and

B)  The opponent’s light saber could hit the metal and either still destroy the entire mechanics of the connected hilt, or at least shatter the metal bands surrounding the crossguard (and why would that metal band even be there if it wasn’t necessary  for the crossguard stream to form?  what function does it serve?)

If we take the best case, latter scenario, then broski would be fighting with a crossguard with literally no safe place to brace against.

and

C)  Light sabers are supposed to be a weapon of finesse, that one can only truly master by mastering the Force.  Claymores were never this.  Claymores were always a brute force weapon.  This is a more finicky point, but I still think it bears mention.

and

D)  YOU CAN STILL STAB YOURSELF WITH THE CROSSGUARD

Please don’t get me wrong.  I am sure JJ will show this laser fucking claymore perform lots of badass fighting that conveniently never shows these logical flaws.  And this will be the least significant way  in which JJ fucks up yet another beloved sci fi franchise.

Yeah dude I'm jealous of that hair. #killinit
