I Think It’s Been Days Since I Last Saw The Sun

Random story time!

Quick background info before we start:

I’m a triplet

All of us are biologically female, but one of them came out as either gender nuetral or gender fluid, (I know the difference between the two I just can’t remember which one they identified as) so I refer to them as they/them. Occasionally though I might refer to them as he/him because they like to go by those pronouns too.

I don’t know if either of them want me to use their real names so I’m going to refer to the oldest one, the other girl, as Primm, and the other one, gender fluid/gender nuetral one as Kilo.

So I went to go get ice cream with 2 of my siblings and my mom. We were in a convertible with the roof down so the employees could easily see us when they gave us our order. I was in the front with my mom and my siblings were in the back. The person who gave us our ice cream was a sweet and funny old man. He looked at my siblings and said, “I wonder how you two got in the back together.” In other words he thought that my siblings were dating each other. My mom and I bursted out laughing when we drove off, and my siblings were just in shock. The best part was that before this Kilo had just gotten their hair cut and dyed. It was already hard to tell that all three of us were related because we all had very different heights, faces, and senses of style, despite being triplets, so the new hair didn’t help. So I remarked that it would be hilarious if someone thought that they were dating either me or Primm. Both of them just looked at me like I was insane. Neither of them thought it would happen. Then a few weeks later the ice cream story happened.

Doing another RWBY hatedom rant because people seemed to like the last one and I have more to say:

I absolutely despise it when people call Yang selfish and a terrible sister in Volume 9 when it came to Ruby’s struggles with her mental health. I have two main issues.

1. People seem to think that because Yang is Ruby’s big sister then she needs to always be at her beck and call. She can’t disagree with Ruby. She can’t let Ruby do things on her own. She can’t focus on herself or her happiness. She must always be focusing on Ruby. That’s not how relationships, especially sibling ones, work. People seem to think that Yang must sacrifice everything for Ruby and if she is anything less than that then she is a terrible sister. Do people forget how much Yang had given up for Ruby?! She raised her! She sacrificed her life for her! As soon as she was ready to went to go find Ruby in Volume 5 instead of her mom, which she had wanted to do for most of her life! I fully believe that if Raven didn’t have her portal semblance, which made finding/getting to Ruby MUCH easier, Yang would not have bothered. Yang loves her sister so much! But just because she’s a big sister does not mean that she isn’t allowed to struggle or focus on herself.

2. Here’s the big reason. As someone who has had to deal with a VERY similar experience in my life it absolutely infuriates me when people call Yang a terrible person and sister. I won’t go into too much detail because it’s not my place and I’d rather keep the information private but a couple years ago my sister hit a very low point mentally and it got very scary. (She’s doing much better now don’t worry). Here’s something that most people don’t realize when someone very close to you is going through something like Ruby did: You don’t tend to realize how bad it is. I knew that my sister had her struggles, but I genuinely thought she was doing alright. Afterwards I felt like such a terrible person because I wished that I noticed more and wished she had told me what was going on. This is exactly how Yang felt! She knew her sister was struggling, but didn’t realize just how bad Ruby’s mental state had gotten. She would try to comfort Ruby, not realizing that it was making it worse. She wished that Ruby had told her so that she could help her. It’s a really shitty situation to be in. This is on top of the fact that all of team RWBY were in a very stressful situation after having witnessed the fall of Atlas. I don’t think any of them were in great headspace’s, Ruby was just in a much worse place.

Honestly the entirety of Volume 9, in my opinion, was very realistic in its portrayal of mental health issues both as the person struggling with it and as the people around them. These situations are messy, complicated, and are never straightforward. Trying to treat it as anything else really shows that people don’t know what they’re talk about.

Yang is a good sister. She’s not perfect, but guess what? No one is! Remember we as an audience know so much more than the characters do. Just because characters don’t handle a situation perfectly doesn’t mean they’re garbage.

my dad is convinced that no one but me thinks that Glinda and elphaba are gay so please reblog this to prove him wrong

OP I’m so sorry to say this after such a cute post, but their ship name is Alcoholics Anonymous.

Qrow and Willow as a ship, whether it’s romantic or platonic is so good bc from whats told through the animatic, they seem to be supporting each other as they’re both recovering alcoholics who’ve both lost their child during the fall of atlas (and don’t come for me about the semantics of Yang and Ruby being his nieces okay he loves those girls like they’re his own). And ofc even though there was no love between Willow and jackass schnee, she does have other stuff to worry about then bring thrust into another relationship immediately after the events of volume 8.

But like, qrow/willow is also really funny as a romantic ship in the context of their families. In regards to the timeline it was like two years ago that winter was fighting this drunkard at her little sisters school, got reprimanded by her boss bc of it and kicked out of the meeting with ozpin, Glynda, qrow, and ironwood.

And then there’s the whole thing that if they got married then Weiss would be cousins with Yang and Ruby, who is already on track to be sister in laws with Blake, and qrow would be winters stepdad as well.

This also that means that Weiss’ introduction to her aunt was from raven kidnapping her and going to hold her for ransom back to her family

Translation:

UNINTELLIGIBLE, that I'm telling you.

It's not easy birthing a child... It's not easy.

What are you going to do with your children? What will you give them?

Where is your husband?

“ummmmm ur bra strap is showing :/ ”

“It’s literally impossible to be a woman.

You are so beautiful, and so smart, and it kills me that you don't think you're good enough. Like, we have to always be extraordinary, but somehow, we're always doing it wrong?

You have to be thin, but not too thin, and you can never say you wanna be thin. You have to say you wanna be healthy, but also, you have to BE THIN.

You have to have money, but you can't ask for money because that's crass.

You have to be a boss, but you can't be mean.

You have to lead, but you can't squash other people's ideas.

You're supposed to love being a mother, but don't talk about your kids all the damn time.

You have to be a career woman, but also, always be looking out for other people.

You have to answer for men's bad behavior, which is INSANE, but if you point that out, you're accused of complaining!

You're supposed to stay pretty for men, but not so pretty that you tempt them too much or that you threaten other women because you're supposed to be a part of the sisterhood, but ALWAYS STAND OUT and ALWAYS BE GRATEFUL. But never forget that the system is rigged, so find a way to acknowledge that but ALSO, always be grateful!

You have to never get old. Never be rude. Never show off. Never be selfish. Never fall down. Never fail. Never show fear. Never get OUT OF LINE. It's too hard! It's too contradictory, and nobody gives you a medal or says 'thank you!' And it turns out, in fact, that not only are you doing everything wrong, but also, everything is your fault.

I'm just so tired of watching myself, and every single other woman tie herself into knots, so that people will like us.

And if all of that, is also true for a doll just representing a woman, then I don't even know." -Gloria the barbie movie

this is it. this is exactly it oh my god.

As someone who writes and creates most of her own character designs, I’m reblogging this because I always struggle when creating the outfits.
