Sometimes a writer that I really look up to comments on my fic, and every time it just feels like 'Omg, hi. So, hello. hihi, well, yeah. I will give you my first born child, and also omg hello.'
Young Royals loved it's parallels and the two sets of friends represented different aspects and paths of the class system depicted in the show.
Another post stuck in drafts that will never be. The gist was that Vincent and Fredreka represent traditionalist values and the status quo. Nils and Stella, while hiding their true selves and willing to walk on the wild side (Verbier, flirting with Rosh), they still ultimately support a system that may not support them and do not want to disrupt it. August and Felice, the seemingly perfect leaders of the system who are hiding secrets/trauma and betray the status quo but with very different motivations.
And then there's Madison: Part of the system and can understand it but doesn't fully speak the language and isn't directly tied to it and thus can comment on it.
And then something about how the girls being less extreme examples could be seen as perpetuating a problematic stereotype or a commentary about that stereotype
Currently praying my exams r over soon so that I can go back to drawing silly little animations. MY HANDS ARE ITCHING.

Now I'm not saying that JD Vance killed the Pope, per se. I just think his actions raise some questions, like for example: Did JD Vance kill the Pope?

Drawing of Simons alien-creature-pet (She's really nice, he swears.)
Chapter 3: Fake it till you make it.
Simon knew they were rich, no one can afford a spacecraft like that without swimming in wealth. The crash site alone was as big as his hometown. It makes him feel all sorts of ways, none of them good.
His nose scrunches, "Fine, just waiting for this to be over." Simon leans his chin on top of his crossed arms.
The light twitch of Rosh's eyes, her telltale sign that Simon is talking bullshit, makes him brace for a harsh comment.
Just when she opens her mouth to fire away, a knock sounds from the door. Simon calls out in permission and Wilhelm shuffles into the room. The hand that is running at the side of his neck gets caught on some protruding gauze. He hisses, blows some air out of his mouth and only then notices the two other people in the room.
"Oh- I can come back later."
As Wilhelm moves to turn around Rosh and Ayub's heads jerk to the door. "Is that him?" Ayub stands on his toes, as if that would help. His hologram sizzles.
Simon sits up straighter, waves a hand at him in a 'come here' motion. "Stand next to me, you're not in their range of view."
Wille obliges and walks over to Simon, he waves a little awkwardly at Simon's friends. "Uh, hi?"
The upturned corners of his mouth vanish when Rosh snaps a "Hello." at him, and gives a very non-subtle disapproving glance up and down. Ayub just narrows his eyes.
An awkward silence settles over them, Ayub and Rosh have some non verbal interactions that include multiple hand gestures. What Simon manages to make out of it is something along the lines of 'Are you seeing what I'm seeing?' And a head shake that, arguably, looks a lot like 'What the fuck?'.

Or read from the start!
writing is hard but coming up with a cunty title and catchy summary will slay even god's strongest soldier
Really wish we could’ve seen more moments like this in S3 🥲🤚🏻.
Originally wanted to post this on Wilmon day, but then I very much forgot I was working on it.
