This is really sad
(and no, I'm not victim blaming)
The fact I dislike Sirius so much, and all the people who protected him and closed their eyes on his actions when he was a student, is because there is something else in that "prank" he played on Severus, like the fandom likes to call a near murder, that I find even more terrible than the attempted murder itself or the fact he used one of his best friends, nearly ruining his life and putting blood on his hands. It is Severus' behaviour that is the most telling and disturbing.
All Sirius had to do was tell him how to get into the Shrieking Shack. He didn't force him, he didn't pull him and abandoned him there, didn't threaten him to go down the tunnel. He just told him how to do it, and Severus did. Imagine the amount of abuse one has to have been through already, to willingly do what your bully told you to do. Severus was a brilliant person, and he was not a fool. He knew everything that came from the Marauders was a threat. And still, he decided to go down the tunnel, knowing something most certainly dangerous and forbidden took place there. He was so desperate to get rid of his tormentors he was willing to break the school rules and put himself in danger to expose them. Just imagine the mental state you must be in to do that. Sirius used Severus' trauma to try and murder him, he used his nearly irrational fear of them to harm him even more. He knew Severus would do anything to have them expelled as he told Harry. Severus was so damaged he was willing to go down the Shrieking Shack if it gave him any chance to get them expelled.
This is so horrible it hurts, and a situation than can be found with real victims of bullying. They are willing to do anything that would help ease their own suffering. It can be many things, from self-harm to becoming a bully yourself, or suicide.
And we know Severus must have thought, when he saw Lupin, "at least now they have to be expelled". He must have been relieved while he was nearly killed - so imagine how he felt after. When Dumbledore put all responsibility on him and let Sirius stay at the school. Showing him his life was worth nothing, while it already meant so little to Severus at the time, and this did not change.
Severus was so desperate, so abused already, that it did not matter to him anymore the risks he took if he could be freed from the bullying. He wasn't helped by anyone so he took the matter in his own hands.
In the hand, he nearly got himself killed in his attempt to be set free from his tormentors. And Dumbledore closed his eyes and looked away, while such behaviour should have alerted him on young Severus' extreme suffering and bad mental state.
So NEVER minimize the effects bullying can have on someone. Reminder that Severus is a perfect fictional example:
"Mona O'Moore of the Anti-Bullying Centre at Trinity College in Dublin, has written, "There is a growing body of research which indicates that individuals, whether child or adult, who are persistently subjected to abusive behavior are at risk of stress related illness which can sometimes lead to suicide." Those who have been the targets of bullying can suffer from long term emotional and behavioral problems. Bullying can cause loneliness, depression, anxiety, lead to low self-esteemand increased susceptibility to illness. Bullying has also been shown to cause maladjustment in young children, and targets of bullying who were also bullies themselves exhibit even greater social difficulties. A mental health report also found that bullying was linked to eating disorders, anxiety, body dysmorphia and other negative psychological effects."

Whatever makes you say that, dear anon?
I’d say that right now Mo is confused and unsure about what’s he’s feeling, but he’s definitely beginning to become conscious of it and it scares him a bit, that’s why he’s so prone to yell that HT pisses him off.
For once, let me say that for Mo it’s practically impossible to quickly develop attraction and feelings for another person. Mo has been bullied since a very tender age and his natural response was to clam up inside of himself. It’s very human and very relatable, and quite typical for the victims of bullying. He has been ostracized. He has been used by people like She Li. Life has let him down and he’s grown weary and distrustful of those around him. More importantly, he learned how to cope by himself and not rely on (or need) anyone else.
To Mo, He Tian is one of those people, who are responsible for the shit happening to the underprivileged like himself. He believes that wealth leads to people abusing it in all the wrong ways. And, let’s be honest, He Tian’s behaviour, in the beginning, did fit this mould. We as readers know that He Tian genuinely wants to help him, but Mo doesn’t. For him, He Tian is just a popular spoiled brat, who bothers him just for the kicks, and Mo has no reason to believe that somebody like that would take a genuine interest in himself. That there’s kindness behind his actions - remember, Mo used to say that HT is fake? The reason for Momo’s disbelief is that he grew up with such a world view, and it’s not easy to shake it off. It’s not easy to overcome trust issues.
Luckily over time that belief started to waver. He Tian was probably the only person in his life who bothered to help him without asking anything in return. Who cared for him (even in a roundabout way). He Tian was ready to do some martyr-like shit for Mo. It didn’t go unnoticed, even if Mo may not fully realize why HT would go so far for a street kid.
If Momo hadn’t liked He Tian, he wouldn’t be constantly blushing at the slightest physical contact. It may be just a physical thing, but it’s definitely there. If Momo didn’t care about HT, he wouldn’t have rushed to his apartment, when HT sent him “bloodied” hand. When He Tian disappeared after sending him to the hospital, Momo wanted to know his whereabouts. Momo wouldn’t have been checking his phone all the time. If he didn’t care, he wouldn’t have held his hand, when HT was having a nightmare.
And lastly, let’s look at one of Mo’s dreams. He’s dreaming that he’s being bullied by a mob again until He Tian appears and saves him. Lots of people pay attention to the butt grab, but the truly important thing here is the fact that Momo actually cries in HT’s shoulder. I think that says more than anything that he actually sees He Tian as a source of his comfort. Would he see somebody he didn’t like this way? I think not.
Anyway, I don’t think Momo can rationalize his feelings right now. He definitely doesn’t dislike HT and he’s definitely getting physical reactions. He’s also quite a bit of tsundere and would deny it to the very end, and it would take plenty of time for him to come to terms with what’s he’s feeling.
Whoa, that’s a wall o’text again, srry.
아쉬우니 이것도 올려봅니다. 망했지만요…
could you pls make three edits of tanya from mortal kombat wearing a reverse bear trap? :0
In Mortal Kombat 11, finishing Mileena's arcade mode shows you her special ending. One where she has a baby with Tanya. Mileena being purposefully crafted to be Shao Kahn's and Sindel's daughter- I believe that she would be a cisgendered female (or at least assigned female at birth, if you have different headcanons.) So where did that baby come from?
I think that Tanya is transfem, and she got Mileena pregnant so that they could raise a baby together and be Kombat Moms. Food for thought! This is just my headcanon that's vaguely supported by the game.
Have more Snape screencaps ^^
Snape didn't bother to mentor us before the second quidditch match. Suddenly when the final match arrived, he wanted to meet us (my OC and me) again and seemed passionate and demanding about slytherin team winning the quidditch cup.
I'd like to think that when one of Slytherin players got injured before the final match because of an accident involving a ravenclaw player, he got angry and wanted to make sure that Slytherin players would not be defeated because of this 😊💕💕 I love him
Slytherin team won the quidditch cup. Snape came to the celebration party and was uncomfortable and disturbed the whole time. It was amazing. Just look at him congratulating the players! He looks so stressed! 😂😂
I haven't included most of the screencaps from the party because I'm not a fan of how his face looked (he was so cranky you wouldn't believe it). I loved it when he said "You won the Quidditch Cup" with his sarcastic attitude and I wanted to include the screencap where he leaves the party like a boss but I didn't have enough space. I will include it in the next batch of screencaps, if you still want these :)
One of the golden screencaps I didn't manage to capture was the one were Snape SMIRKED in the first quidditch match. He hasn't smiled ever since and sometimes I'm not sure if it was real
I haven't read your message yet, but I know that you have amazing memes waiting 😄 this is fun!
WHY DON’T I GET NOTIFICATIONS?!
He’s so offended and done with parties!!😆😆 I really love that he always stands far from everyone. There’s a bunch of people and he just...stands as far as he can from them, classic Snape.
Oh God, he looks so mad!!! I love him so much😭🤣
He’s such a dad for Slytherin🥰💗, makes me jealous of you guys, in a nice way.
He’s like I don’t care for the sport, but you lot better win the cup.
And when you win he’s all...Well at least you did what I asked🤣🤣
Oh yess, Snape pics are like pet pics, I will never not want them!!
My memes were lame-ish and out of context, lool.
Thank you for the screencaps!!💗💗💓
i’ve seen so many negative reviews of Bridgerton concerning it’s ‘forced diversity’. Which is what one would take away from it if you only watched the first 10 minutesIf you stopped to watch the whole thing, you’d see it’s anything but forced.
Consider our historical context here:
Around the time the story takes place, the Trans-Atlantic Slave trade would’ve been nearing it’s end, with debates over slavery in England reaching their peak. Not to mention, that by this time, India had been colonized.
Many black and brown people began to make their way into English society, and not only the lower factions. While the vast majority of us lived in poverty and cruel conditions, there were some of us who managed to make it out on top. There is documented evidence of our existence in Regency Society. We were simply hidden from the gaze of the world for so long because for so long we have allowed the oppressor to write all of our history.
Not only that, but Queen Charlotte has long been rumored to have been biracial, coming from the Black Branch of the Portuguese Royal Family. Therefore, having a black Queen Charlotte might’ve been more historically accurate than having a paper white one
Therefore, on all counts, the diversity in Bridgerton cannot be considered forced, but rather, long over due. We have always, and always will be, part of your history, whether the delicate sensibilities of white conservatives can handle it or not. And every time a black/brown creative makes it to a place of power, a place like Bridgerton created, we come a little bit further out of the wings and into the limelight. This very sentiment is reflected in arguably one of the most poignant scenes in Bridgerton: (minor spoilers)
When Duke Simon and Lady Danbury are discussing love, Lady Danbury comments on just how they got to their position. She tells Simon that thanks to the love between one of their own, Queen Charlotte, and the King, they were given an opportunity to rise.
(side note: while this is very important historically and plot-wise, it was also very refreshing to witness. very often in stories of romance and drama, the struggles of poc are sidelined in favor of a more frivolous tone. Bridgerton addresses it head on, in a realistic way) But, by having a person who looked, spoke, and lived like them in a place of power, they were able to come that much closer to living a fully realized life as peers of their white counterparts. Bridgerton manages to not only deliver a sharp commentary on the state of historical revisionism and the state of inclusion in society, but also describe their own experience. Bridgerton’s diversity is far from forced, it is historically accurate, it is relevant (both in our world and theirs), and it adds a level of nuance and depth to their world, that I had not expected from it. It immerses you in it’s world further, and it gives me and other black and brown folks like me a world in which I can finally see myself reflected in the way that our ancestors paved the way for. It is exactly what historical representation should be.
In conclusion: WATCH BRIDGERTON IT IS SO FUCKING GOOD
seriously y’all reblogging and liking these tik toks was the biggest mistake you guys ever made because i’ll keep making more trashy memes
