I still think that my favorite urban legend/folklore fact is that there are certain areas in New Orleans where you cannot get a taxi late at night not because it isn’t safe, but because taxi companies have had recurring problems of picking up ghosts in those areas who are not aware that they are dead and disappearing from the cab before reaching the destination and therefore stiffing the driver on the fare causing a loss for the company.

we have that in malaysia and singapore too

do you ever just crave domesticity? to coming home to a partner, meld into them like you do your bed after a long day, soak your mind in the serenity of theirs like a warm bath to soothe the knots in your body, wrap yourself in their warmth and just fucking sigh from pure comfort

there’s a line in twilight that goes “there was nothing more beautiful than Edward in his khakis and pale
beige pullover” and i think about that every day of my life

like stephanie meyer really did go “hmm. what’s the absolute sexiest garment i can think of. the most gorgeous clothes imaginable. how do i communicate how absolutely fucking fine edward looks at all times” and then 0.5 seconds later she went “oh, of course. khakis”

I am sick and tired of people depicting Thomas as The Pure Soft Perfect Gay Who Needs To Be Protected uwu. Thomas has flaws. He has big ugly flaws. They’re what make him an interesting character. Here are some of Thomas’ canon traits that fanon tends to skip over:

1. Thomas is a Privileged Little Shit. He might have had the shittiest dad in the world, but he’s a rich man of noble birth with an Etonian education and he behaves like it. He speaks his mind, talks back to his father in company, doesn’t care about appearances, supports colonisation, disregards his wife’s opinion and points out Flint’s modest origins within five seconds of meeting him in order to upset/destabilise him

(a particularly Little Shit move imo).

2. Thomas is Reckless. A direct consequence of the above, in London Thomas didn’t believe that anything bad could ever happen to him, in spite of many warnings to the contrary. He proposed scandalous to the Parliament, got into a nasty argument with his father in front of company and struggled to be discreet about his relationship with a man.

3. Thomas is Stubborn and Domineering. He is uncompromising, wants to have things his way and the last word in any argument. It’s why Miranda gives Flint the Don Quixote, because she can see Thomas is driving Flint nuts.

4. Thomas is Strong. All the evidence in the show, right up to the ending where he’s just standing there smiling serenely when Flint arrives, points to the fact that Thomas is incredibly resilient even when he’s imprisoned. Miranda said that Thomas was destined to be a great man. You don’t get that without being really strong and charismatic.

Granted, some of these aspects might have changed somewhat while Thomas was imprisoned, but they make up the bulk of his adult personality, and even 10 years being locked up can’t have erased those traits entirely.
