Guarda il problema ĆØ che a parte Lizzie-Joe e Darcy-Nicky, tutti gli altri plotpoint sono abbastanza difficili da adattare al cast ristretto di the old guard. PerĆ² apprezzo un sacco lāentusiasmo e il sentimentoā„ļø
I spoke with the lovely and talented and genius @nicolos about a p&p au and we āmostly she, letās be honestā managed to create a really nice plan of action. Problem is, we both have wips and other stuff to write first, but if she will have me, one day Iāll ask her to write it with me š

zsphoenix replied to your post āI want to see more fucking historical analyses of medieval Europe that...ā
This is a great idea. Have you thought about doing a PhD and having it as thesis? Really interesting!
Itās definitely occurred to me! This is a topic I keep returning to again and again. The trauma of White people, basically--attachment and trauma in the British Empire. Because Canadaās Indian Residential Schools only make sense when you understand that they used the same model as British boarding schools, just with the toxicity ramped up to 11--that it seemed natural and normal to people that youād rip children away from their parents at the age of 5 and stick them in a punitive foreign culture and think it was a good thing. Which is a combo history/psychology thing.
I worry that Iām not detail-oriented enough to be a historian, too impatient with the work of compiling tiny bits of data before getting to my overall whole. And if I go for a PhD it should probablyĀ be in psychology, my actual field. I mean, maybe if I had a super robust support system and tons of money and a good job and blah blah blah, Iād go for a history PhD just for the fun of it, but... IDK.
Excuuuuuuuuseee meeeee, see your tags on the Nerd HC for Jack, and I'd loooove to see a military!au if you're into it, Lis! :3
I donāt have nearlyĀ enough World War II knowledge to write thatĀ era, I donāt think, but I grew up in a bedroom community of CFB Edmonton and all my friends were CAF brats. Iām catsitting for my friendĀ āNerdā while she flies helicopters in Iraq. There are some things I know. And it would be so easy to, likeā¦
Bitty joined the Army because thatās what you doĀ when you barely finished high school because you were a bullied mess and couldnāt get a scholarship; you do a few years in the Army, upgrade your marks with correspondence classes, and go to college on the GI Bill. And heās not stupidĀ (he just has undiagnosed ADHD and PTSD) so he does well; heās good at his job, skilled with technology, becomes an expert on a newā¦ something something (missile guidance?) system, and gets assigned to a military exchange to Canada to help CAF deal with it. Ā Heās, um, *handwave* embedded in a unit to be the one to do the important bit of technology, because um *handwave* Canadian soldiers will only ever use it around US military installations, so the actual equipment is still American.Ā
So yes, when he shows up at CFB Edmonton, itās dark and cold after an hour travelling from the airport as the sun set over a windswept barren plain of snow and rows of skeletal trees, and heās supposed to just bunk in for the night and report for the morning, but when heās looking for theā¦ do Canadians call it a canteen? someone crashes into him, punches his shoulder. Ā āHey, Yankee! You cominā? Ā LT Hockeyās actually gonna play tonight.ā
Heās shivering (and not just from cold, even though itās icy like a knife outside) and wondering if this is some kind of hazing ritual, as his very tall new friend and a buddy hustle him along outside, into the back of a running pickup truck and two minutes down the road to a brightly lit building.
Itāsā¦ the ice rink. His mama had offered to send him his old skates.Ā āTheyāve got an arena as part of the base, Dicky! You could figure skate again!ā But the mood is energetic, electric, among the people who stream in from the cold. He sees beer and hamburgers in the hands of the smokers outside the door, who jovially greet his kidnappers,Ā āRansomā andĀ āHoltzyā. Ā Heās numbly figuring out that maybe this isnātĀ an unpleasant hazing as he climbs up with them on the bleachers with the other spectators.
āYou missed it,ā someone says to Holtzy, passing him and Ransom full cups of beer. Ā āHe just got off the ice. Jesus, I almost fucking creamed myself. Wish we had that guy on the fuckinā Oilers. Hello, you one of theĀ āMericans we got in?ā
āEric Bittle, US Army,ā he says numbly, and offers a hand; the dude shakes it, and offers him nachos.
āHe playinā with Shitty tonight?ā Ransom asks, craning his head.
āYeah, Shittyās the one talked him into it. Jesus fuck, he aināt lost anything since World Juniors that I can see. Hey Rox, you got beers there? Yeah, gimme one. Bittle! You wanna beer?ā
āTheyāre about to change shifts,ā Ransom says, shiftng from foot to foot in apprehension.
Eric Bittle doesnāt really know whatās going on, doesnāt know hockey, doesnāt know what beer heās drinking, doesnāt know how heās going to get home at the end of the nightābut heās an athlete, he can read bodies and patterns, and he knows talent when he sees it.
So everything else goes out of his head when Lieutenant Jack Laurent Zimmermann of the Princess Patriciaās Canadian Light Infantry, in a borrowed jersey, goes over the boards.
zsphoenix replied to your post āOk, it would seem I have quite a sever case of gastritus. My stomach...ā
Oh, noo. I'm so sorry you feel this sick! I know exactly how it is :( been there, done that. Call a cab to take you to the doctor's office of you can, don't exert yourself! Wish you a fast recovery.
Oh I shall, Iām not walking itād taken me probably 25 minutes and in my current state, no chance. Iāve just tried to eat a packet of plain ovenbaked crisps, very bland and boring but good for soaking up acid.Ā I appear to be keeping it down at the moment. Fingers crossed it stays that way.

Hey, Bree! Hope life's treating you well. Do you know of any substitutes for clovers (re: jobs)? I thought of Basil, but guess Bergamot already has the same properties... Thanks, have a nice weekend!
Basilās my usual go-to for manifestation and good fortune, so that definitely works. Bergamot is also great for success-related spells, especially if you need something to work quickly or adhere to a slightly more rigid set of specified results (i.e. āI need A jobā vs āI need a job with this salary and this general commute time and this required skill setā).
So either one would work, really. Youāre on the right track! :)
you saw the posts tryina drag kp as well? i wanted to try and talk (no discourse, just htg mature talking) but i felt better letting go.
A friend of mine made it and.... frankly? It was warranted. I donāt hate him, as Iāve made clear, but the way his fans treat him is really fucking disturbing to me because Kent hardcore reminds me of my abuser. Things he said to Jack were said to me.
Again, I find him fucking fascinating. But the Kent I often see discussed is not the one I see in canon, which is disheartening for multiple reasons, including the fact that, yes, he reminds me of my abuser, and that thereās a lot to him that isnāt inherently negative that never gets discussed, because so many people treat him as a misunderstood cinnamon roll and bulldoze over anyone who points out that what he said to Jack was REALLY fucked up.
And no, I donāt think fanworks of him should stop. At all. He really is an important character, but something that runs rampant in this fandom (and fandom as a whole, but this one in particularly) is sanitizing characters we like/identify with.
Again, I donāt hate him. But Iām deeply disturbed by his portrayal in fanworks, especially in regards to Jack.
