Daemonism things...

Not knowing what to say when someone asks about your form related jewellery.

Being careful not to answer "too fast" if asked what animal you would be.

That split second where you and your daemon are disagreeing over what to do next.

Knowing the whole journey of trying to work out if you are settled enough as a person yet to find a settled form.

Captain Marvel didn’t kill Thanos because it wasn’t her place.

Captain Marvel could have killed Thanos if she needed to.

Captain Marvel saved everyone’s lives when she destroyed Thanos’ ship.

Captain Marvel is not overpowered.

The entire point of a superhero, is that they are powerful enough to defeat the villain. Otherwise there’s no winning.

Captain Marvel is stronger than Thanos.

No one is stronger than the Infinity Stones. Captain Marvel is not stronger than Thanos when he’s using the Infinity Stones.

Captain Marvel is not weak.

Nobody could’ve taken a punch from the Power Stone. The impact might have even killed a regular human.

Captain Marvel is not useless. She saved everyone’s lives.

Thor, Scarlet Witch, Hulk and Dr Strange most probably could have destroyed Thanos’ ship. But they didn’t. So they needed Captain Marvel.

Captain Marvel didn’t have much screentime in Endgame because the film was a tribute to the original 6.

Captain Marvel had about the same amount of screentime as Spiderman and Black Panther. All three are the new faces of the Avengers.

Captain Marvel (film) did not have the same target audience as the other Marvel films. It was aimed at women and girls. If you’re not a woman or a girl, you have a higher chance of not liking it, because it wasn’t made to please you.

Your hate comments don’t change anything about the film or the character and probably don’t affect Brie Larson the way you want them to.

Film success is based off of money. Captain Marvel made a billion dollars. No one cares about your opinion.

If you found Carol Danvers bland, it’s probably because she doesn’t know who she is for half the film and then doesn’t have time to process what she’s been told about herself for the rest of the film.

We’ll probably see character development as Marvel progresses. Like what happens in every series ever.

I’m sorry to break it to you, but Captain Marvel WILL be in future Marvel films. If you don’t like her, don’t watch them. It’s not hard.

Captain Marvel is not arrogant. Or at least, not any more so than Iron Man and Thor. Why is it okay for them to be arrogant, but not her?

Brie Larson is one of the sweetest human beings in the world. She’s kind and thoughtful and determined to spread goodness.

Brie Larson never said she hated men. She only said she wishes women and people of colour got more opportunities, you know, because white men get more opportunities than anyone else.

The Avengers cast do not hate Brie Larson. Or, maybe they do. How can you tell? Do you personally know the actors well enough to know how they are around someone they dislike? Has anyone publicly stated that they hate her?

To those who said she should be more sexy, believe it or not, women do not exist for the pleasure of men. Her suit is practical. Brie Larson is a human being, you don’t get to treat her like anything less.

Captain Marvel is not Captain America’s replacement. They are different characters with different motivations, purposes, morals, powers, etc.

Every single Avenger would kick your ass for hating Captain Marvel. Every single Avenger would probably heartily agree that she is the most powerful Avenger, and only joke about disagreeing.

Chris Hemsworth has said that Thor is the strongest Avenger. No one called him out on it.

To those who said she should smile more, your sexism is showing.

To those who think Captain Marvel spreads the idea that stealing is okay, where was this energy for Scott Lang?

If you didn’t like the film, don’t watch it. Don’t comment on things about it, just scroll. It isn’t rocket science to ignore something you dislike. In fact, you look like a fool for choosing to write your hateful comment. You’re bringing negativity into your own life by commenting.

Meta/Document Fic: Daemons and settling

(I don’t know, guys. This thing just happened and demanded to be written. Excerpt from a college student’s sociology paper on daemon settlement.)

(Un)settled: An analysis of atypical patterns of daemon morphic fluidity

The ‘standard’ pattern of morphic fluidity in daemons is a bell curve[1], punctuated by the long tail of settled adulthood. The brief window of infant stability, transitioning to the rapid-fire shifts of childhood peaking around age ten, before slowly dropping to a stable set of preferred shapes and ending with settlement into a final adult form by the point of legal adulthood.

There is no public conception of non-traditional settlement except as a stigma, a moral failing. Non-traditional settlement is pathologized, treated as a sign of mental illness at best, moral depravity at worst. [2] This refusal to teach or consider other settlement patterns leaves many of the most vulnerable members of society out in the cold.

In this essay, I will discuss the most common alternate settlement patterns: delayed settlement, precocious settlement, two-stage settlement, long-phase polymorphic settlement, short-phase polymorphic settlement, traumatic resettlement, and traumatic unsettling.

Delayed and precocious settlement are both recognized medical conditions, akin to disorders related to puberty and development. [3] Two-stage settlement, polymorphic settlement, and trauma-based settlement patterns meanwhile fall under the umbrella of psychiatric disorders. [4]

Delayed settlement is defined medically as any daemon settlement after the age of sixteen, but is not considered ‘serious’ unless a daemon remains unsettled past the age of majority. The oldest recorded settling was Bazhenov Vyacheslav|Emiliya at 39 years old. [5]

Precocious settlement, on the opposite end of the spectrum, is daemon settlement before age thirteen.[6] Precocious settlement is most diagnosed in boys, despite studies [7] which suggest girls are three times as likely to settle precociously than boys are. The youngest recorded settlement was Faraji Shabani|Jahaira at five years old. [8]

Two-stage settlement, also known as ‘false settling’, is defined by the DSM-5 as ‘periods of involuntary quasi-settlement, where a daemon is morphically stable for a minimum of six months’.[9] The DSM-5 definition is not without controversy – proponents of neuro-morphic theory argue that ‘quasi-settlement,’ by definition, is only applicable to daemons who retain metamorphic ability. 10]

Long-phase and short-phase polymorphic settlement are marked by limited retention of metamorphic ability. Polymorphic daemons have a set range of forms – as few as two, or as many as twenty [11] have been recorded. In contrast to unsettled daemons, polymorphs often describe their shifts as involuntary or situation-based. (e.g. a polymorph is always a yorkshire terrier at home, but shifts to a husky while at work.) [12] The division between long and short phase polymorphs is largely artificial, useful more for describing the entire population than any one individual. A polymorph who shifts more than once a month is considered a short-phase, one who shifts less often is a long-phase. [13]

Traumatic resettlement and unsettlement were, until recently, treated only as symptoms of PTSD. [14] The DSM-5 reclassified them as trauma disorders in its own right, [15] which has drawn disapproval from multiple groups.[16]…

On The Elements: Water

Of all the elements none can be fully experienced or sensed physically in the way that water can. It soothes with its coldness, eases with its warmth, and suspends with its immersion. ‘=

Perhaps the easiest way to understand water metaphysically would be through the physical and immersive properties of water. To understand water is to understand connection that cannot be touched, only felt. For ultimately water is about two things, emotion and connection. (with many sub facets)

The astrological components of water are the energies of pisces, in the form of mutable water. Cancer in the form of cardinal water, and scorpio in the form of fixed water. All of the elements in fact can be thought of as having three different aspects to them a cardinal, mutable, and fixed aspect. This is reflected in the heavens.

Mutable water can be explained as a stream, this water is free falling, guided only by gravity and the shape of its vessel. This water forms the veins of the earth, connecting other great bodies of water and providing physical and nutritive connection where its environment deems it should flow. The mutable energy of water seeks freedom and expansion and has little shape of its own. Its mission is to spread the qualities of water between less mobile aspects itself and those things and places which may lack its resources.

Fixed water could be explained as the steadfast expanse of the ocean. However in the context of scorpio I prefer to think of the mariana trench. Fixed water is unyielding, not because of stubbornness but because of vastness. Fixed water is representative of the subconscious, the primal, and the repressed, particularly themes of emotion, and spiritualism.

Cardinal water is the genesis of water, a deep spring with frothing bubbles bursting forth from the earth. Dying the sand it soaks with itself a rich brown. Cardinal water is about bringing forth emotions and connections where they have not yet been reached. Cardinal water seeks to be the spark of emotion, the voice which advocates for emotions, and a provider of spiritual sustenance.

Magically the correlations between water and practical magic differs very little. The focus however does become just that, practical. . The energy of water can be harnessed for many task it is most suited for those task which align with the following correspondences:

Emotion

Soothing/easing

Healing

Cleansing/washing

Divination

Spirit work

Protection of the emotional body

Illusion

A brief summary of plants associated with water and their proclivities:

Chamomile - this is also a solar herb, it is excellent for cleansing, soothing/easing, and healing or balancing egoic issues, it can be used in love magic

Rose - A venusian herb extremely attuned to magic of beauty, glamors, love, relationships, the thorns carry a fiercely protected energy that is not shared with with petals.

Aloe- a lunar herb. This herb is a healer and protector of peace.

Comfrey - a saturnian herb known for protecting travelers, and spells of healing and exorcism

Marijuana - A saturnian herb, known for its use in spells of divination, illusion, protection, cleansing, and healing.
