Spring 1991. Happier Times ✨

everyone drop whatever you're doing right now and go read this.

another amazing work by @bittersuite-iv who is very surely becoming one of my favourite AF fanfic authors right now.

hi fowldom! i finally finished chapter one of my arcane-inspired artemis fowl au!

if you enjoy dark magic, apocalypses, knights, light biopunk, lemurs, or complicated relationships, this could be the fic for you :)

BPD awareness month apparently.

the diagnosis felt damning at first, not gonna lie… but it’s just a part of who I am. it’s also been helpful, to have a key to help me understand why - why do I always feel so empty and hollow ; why does the simple idea of rejection and abandonment makes me spiral into frenzied panic ; why I can’t seem to love like normal people ; why does cutting red lines in my skin so often feels like the only solution ; why I always seem to see people as my best friends, all the while knowing I am not their best friend - and why that hurts so much. what was helpful was also to see that all of these feelings, they exist within everyone. they are part of the human experience. bpd is just that - human feelings and experiences, with the volume and intensity pushed to the maximum.

it’s painful. stigmatized, too. but in the end, it’s only human.

… it’s hard to be human. but even if it often doesn’t feel like it, I exist. we exist. we are not monsters. we are only human.

I'm gonna miss this blog so freaking much é.è

Hope you don't mind if I just;

Send this to all your favourite moots and pass the pumpkin round! KEEP THE PUMPKIN TRAIN GOING 🎃🖤🎃🖤🎃

Happy Halloween in advance!!! Your art is amazing, and your opinions are 100% correct, have a good day/night.

Aww... Thank you, you're so sweet 🧡

Oh hell no.

Merci, mais non merci. Ça sera sans moi.

FOWLDOM HOW WE FEELING

Preach... 🙏🏻 I love Angeline with all my heart, but the books never really did her justice. She was a crucial part of the first book but then she just vanished once she was "cured" - which never sat right with me... call me grumpy, but I don't like the idea that magic can cure something so deeply rooted in the chemistry of the mind as mental illnesses (plural because I really don't think Angeline was simply depressed, the symptoms she exhibits in the first book feel really indicative of bipolar disorder and also schizophrenia). Only in my dreams is her struggle with mental health explored in later books... And TAC is absolute trash imo because it's a huge missed opportunity for more Artemis and Angeline bonding, acknowledging the trauma they both went through during Tim's disappearance... But, we got nothing. It really makes me SO mad to see that the most prominent thing the fowldom has retained from Angeline is the "randomosity" shirt and think of her as some superficial helpless mobwife é.è When Angeline's actually Artemis' most acute emotional and moral compass right beside Butler. So many fics that I otherwise enjoyed annoy me to no end with their portrayal of Angeline.

I'd have so much more to say about my darling, but I don't have the clarity of mind right now to expose all my thoughts in a comprehensible way (all my brain screams right now is FOOD. NOW) but I may come back to it later.

Angeline Fowl is the protagonist’s mother. She is also a wife. She is also crazy. This is basically the extent of what we learn about Angeline in the first book and she doesn’t substantially develop throughout the course of the series. Angeline represents two common tropes in fiction, the mother and the madwoman. While AF is undeniably a fantasy series, it is still rooted in our contemporary world, and so it is not unreasonable to expect a certain level of realism when depicting its mental illness or when depicting its secondary characters, in general. It's just so frustrating that Colfer really opened up such a big can of worms and then did nothing with it, or for that matter, her. :/

I like Wuthering Heights because it basically says, "Yeah, you can have a soul mate. But he's basically the worst. That says a lot about you." Like all the other soul mate shit presents the idea that you have your perfect other half. Nuh uh. Your other half is gonna be exactly as rotten as you. And it's gonna piss you off. Seeing all your worst flaws up close and personal ain't so nice now, is it?
