People talk about Lolita like Humbert Humbert is a conflicted and dichotomous character and then you read the actual book and he's like "I love lying to people for fun and getting lost in flights of wild imagination and making things up and telling falsehoods. Also I look like a bunch of movie stars and every woman in the stories I tell thinks I'm darkly handsome."

HH: "I was in a mental institutions for reasons that are suspiciously never discussed where my favorite thing to do was lie to the psychologists."

Readers: "I think he might be lying about being in love with a child but it's impossible to know for sure."

The edition I'm reading had a little introduction like "is Humbert Humbert a poet in love? Or a dangerous pervert? Perhaps...he is both." ๐Ÿค”๐Ÿค”๐Ÿค”

And then you turn the page to the forward and it's like "Hi. It's me. Vladimir Nabokov, speaking as a diagetic psychologist. Humbert Humbert is a consumate monster. Don't trust anything he says."

nabokov killing a grey alien with a shovel: I awoke unremarkably to find my mother's favorite birdbath in the process of molestation by the grey nubs of some fat fingered and bug eyed hominid of vulcanized complexion. Being at the end of my wits and the begining of an experimental streak, I angrily shod and the fetched the heavy steel shovel from the garage. There was an exchange of swears and brandished gardening tools and extraterrestrial gibbering, at which point I -with all the vigor I could muster- beat the horny little hominid into a grey and yogurtish pulp

LOL i still cant understand why she was allowed in xDD theres a canon reason but i forgor

smth smth irl many soldiers from war usually are entered into schools after the peace periods because they never really got to have a proper education due to draft and she probably told the staff that she's in danger from her tribe and needs to be protected by them also probably Smolder convinced Sunny

it's any of those or a combination of those

Anonymous asked:

I came up with the idea that if Clover stays in the underground, there is a chance that he will want to complete the mission again.

Maybe this will happen under the influence of Flowey, who will persuade him to complete the work for which he came down here. Or under the burden of their own thoughts about justice, that he is alive and others are not, monsters should become closer to freedom, and so on.

I just think it's going to be in his nature.

Clover won't have a happy ending.

In my opinion, I see Clover deciding to give up their SOUL at the end of True Pacifist as them acknowledging that there's nothing that they can do for the other Fallen Children. They're all dead, so even if they marched up to Asgore right then and there and succeeded in killing him and "avenging the Fallen Children," that's.... Not going to change the outcome at all. They're still dead. Nothing they can do will change that fact.

What Clover did come to realize over their journey is that monsterkind is suffering imprisoned Underground and their SOUL can at least right some of the wrongs inflicted against monsterkind by humans by bringing them closer to freedom. And by giving their SOUL to Ceroba, they give her the chance to redeem herself from someone who was trying to kill them for their SOUL to fulfill her husband's dreams at arming monsterkind for combat, to someone who can bring hope to monsterkind with their SOUL in another way. It's restorative justice.

By killing Ceroba at the end of Pacifist, what then happens is that Clover acknowledges that some people have to die in order for justice to be achieved. Punitive justice/death of the wrongdoer is still an acceptable outcome. Hence why they try to fight and kill Asgore after they see the Fallen Children's SOULs.

So yeah. Personally I can't see Clover trying to restart their mission should they decide to live with their friends. They still deeply resent Asgore for killing the kids, but I can't see them marching up to him and killing him to try to resolve things because it won't fix anything. And also, their friends are committing treason by hiding them and raising them in these Clover Lives AUs, they're not going to jeopardize their friends' safety by exposing themself.

BUT! I also think that when Frisk falls into the Underground, and now there's a LIVING human child walking around, that would definitely change up what Clover decides to do. It would certainly be a kick in the rear for them.

Listen, if you want to understand how emanations work, it's like this:

If you're an infinite thing like God, and you want to become a finite thing like the world, how do you go from infinite to finite? Answer: emanation.

You know when youre at a wedding, and there's a big pyramid of wine glasses? And they fill the wine glasses by pouring champagne into the top, so it overflows and then fills all the glasses beneath it? Imagine the wine bottle is infinite. That's God.

Each of the glasses is called a hypostasis. God can emanate through many hypostases to reach it's final emanation.

As for how many hypostases there are, and how they're arranged, that's the tricky one. Every religion has a different answer, and it's never simple.

I GET NO RESPECT ON THIS DAMN WEB SITE

Is Past Your Runtime and Purple & Green part of the same au? Was Heartbeat apart of that au? Did any of the other kids get revived in Past Your Runtime?

(Also I adored that little headcanon about the performance during the barrier breaking anniversaries. Yoink)

ye, p&g preludes the main ut line and utpyrt is the aftermath. they weren't initially made for that intention but even before I think I've ever posted about p&g, I had some chs from that au into utpyrt itself and they still are. so yeah, they're connected!

Heartbeat is not the same case as a different universe but it's meant to travel across multiple timelines and universes so technically it bridges to the other two but only briefly. time traveler type of way

ye, all the kids are revived in utpyrt, it follows after post pacifist. they all went to different places. some returned to human families, some to monster families like emy, and some are in between or their human families moved into monster towns, magpie's case which is helpful a lot because her family needs all the help they get. theyre not scared or mean to monsters at all, yk gotta stick together in a hateful world. I like to think many pocs in general accepted monsters the most. but yeah, magpie's mom is overwhelmed and magpie herself is too. sarah will definitely be the first to help out. osso may sometimes help too but visits emy more. Amity is trying to rebuild the group so she'll be too busy, but asterrea will help out magpie's family a lot too

but yeah. magpie and her family actually live in Sumile too. Emy was in Silvia but they moved to a small monster town shortly off of Sumile.

UM GUYS. I JUST NOTICED A CRAZY ISSUE W THE TUMBLR UPDATE.

YOU CAN SEE THE ICONS OF ANONS SOMETIMES.

The way I was able to recognize several anons in one of my inboxes bc of this error. Oh my god. Guys. This isnโ€™t supposed to happen.

Weighing in to say:

YES, I SEE THIS ON MOBILE. HOWEVER I DO **NOT** THINK IT'S SHOWING THE ANON'S REAL IDENTITY.

The profile pictures I see next to anon asks are profile pictures that belong to other, non-anon asks in my ask box also. Some info

  • there are 14 asks in my inbox from the last ~5 days
  • 9 anons, 5 logged in users
  • ALL 14 show pfps, including the 9 anons
  • ALL THE SHOWN PROFILE PICTURES BELONG TO THE 5 LOGGED IN USERS

I think the bug is the inbox INCORRECTLY attributing anons to neighboring, logged-in asks.

Which is still a bad bug! Considering it makes it look like a long-time follower of mine sent me a spam ask.

And is worse if, say, one of these was anon hate.

But it's NOT the anon's real identity. It's a neighboring ask asker's identity

So if you have anon hate in your inbox that looks like it's attributed to your dear friend, who sends you lovely asks all the time, it was Not them.

CONFIRMED THE BUG IS INCORRECT ATTRIBUTION.

Thanks @thepatchycat for being a test subject. As you can see the icon being attributed to this ask is NOT the patchy cat

The pictured icon belongs to @watchingforcomets who sent me a nice ask about nail polish yesterday which I have not yet answered!

the monster towns underground and on the surface come together at the surface "capital" to celebrate the breaking of the barrier

it is a festival full of dance, feasts, cheer, art and contests

the best part is focusing on all souls and asriel unity into one goal to reach the surface, most often in dance and song but also in their souls painted on their forehead (7 children with their respective color from memory). a lot of years the 7 children, any from outside of the town arriving from afar, have fun dancing in the center.

I have it somewhere on my planning doc that like the next year when flowey has a body frisk just makes him participate. and to not make him feel kinda left out by the painting tradition, they paint their own soul color onto his petals and they wear golden flowers and it's just this cute traded symbols thing and aaaaa. indirect reference to the first fallen human
