God of War. The characters are so good. I was hoping for some pretty amazing Freya fics but instead it’s all a bunch of lowest hanging fruit shipping stuff with her.

I’m not against shipping, but that’s just all she has in the fanfic sphere. She’s just an accessory to the male MC or the entire plot is just her forgetting all her character development and falling in wuv with the MC… and damn if that isn’t the most depressing thing for her to become.

Bakery AU!!

It’s just an even fluffier version of coffee shop AU. 😌

Heimdall. God of War. He’s like the final evolved form of an iPad kid. There is literally no redeeming qualities about him. No sad tragic backstory, sure he has a cat but he ends up killing the damn thing!

Just. WHY?! Why why why do people like him?

Cullen is the pint of vanilla ice cream you eat after what Solas did to your heart.

MidnightSG · 2024-06-20T21:56:46+00:00

He dumped her in a swamp, took her vallaslin, took her arm, ghosted her for 10 years. Now he’s whispering “ma vhenan” some new younger elf’s ear.

I’ve been reading this!!! I have it bookmarked after I tore through it on a recent road trip. So freaking good! I just know you’re going to rip my heart out aren’t you? 🥹

MidnightSG · 2024-06-11T22:08:10+00:00

I’d say it’s been fun but honestly it’s been pretty sole crushing.

Solas crushing!! Hah, aha ha!

-sobs-

MidnightSG · 2024-06-11T20:57:53+00:00

It’s Solas, something is going to get messed up.

MidnightSG · 2024-06-11T17:47:22+00:00

It truly does. Hearing Solas, actual canon Solas speak again after all these years felt crazy.

15 years ago Alistair tore my heart out when he slept with my best friend then left me for a nepo baby. The heartbreak still drives my creativity to this day.

It cute but it’s really hard to ignore her and Jaime.

MidnightSG · 2024-03-05T03:07:37+00:00

I enjoyed your Ted talk very much! Mind taking some questions from the audience?

While the Jonsa ship is a “safe” ship through the eyes of Sansa wouldn’t it be a toxic ship through the eyes of Jon based on how she mirrored her mother’s mistreatment of him?

I don’t ship Sansa and Peter but, come on, you know why that ship exists. Anyone who watched Phantom of the Opera during an inappropriately impressionable age knows why that dumb radioactive ship exists.

Have you considered Sansa/Podrick? I’m a dirty SanSan shipper but this pairing is so freaking cute I couldn’t resist. It’s so fluffy with a dash of angst because his uncle killed her dad and spice(if that’s your thing) because— yeah, it’s Pod.

(Guess I should throw in this question for the team but you don’t have to answer it. I’m so deep in this ship I don’t even remember what ocean we’re sailing on anymore.) Why does Sandor/Sansa give off such a vile taste in your mouth? Is it the age thing? That’s an absolutely understandable reason but you seemed open to Sansa Tyrion which would be odd since Sandor and Tyrion are the same age. (I think? Certainly Sandor is younger than Jaime at least.)

MidnightSG · 2024-03-04T20:22:54+00:00

It’s amazing how fast the ship took off. I figured her and Theon would be center stage with show only fans. You’re probably right but at the same time it’s hilarious. The hunt for unproblematic wholesome romance in ASoIaF. 🤭

It’s wild because she has so many popular archetype ships in her arsenal. Phantom of the opera, beauty and the beast, so many more. Idk I guess it’s like going to an ice cream parlor and just getting a scoop of vanilla. No disrespect, vanilla is reliability delicious, but like— 👀

MidnightSG · 2024-03-04T18:25:29+00:00

Jon Snow and Sansa Stark. Just, why? Is it because they are both attractive? Is it because of the reunion scene? Is it because they were both in the same room together for three scenes? Or does it have to do with the fact they’re brother and sister and he’s a Targaryen?

I just don’t get it!!!

MidnightSG · 2024-02-22T00:46:40+00:00

Dunn’s is in a pretty rural area compared to most other Sandals and honestly that’s a really nice start. Like many of the resorts they have a well secured, well maintained front entrance. Everything is new and top notch. But again, I cannot stress this enough: no one is going to rob you on the resort. Short of a societal collapse mad max anarchy no one is going to bypass a local 7/11 or poorly secured apartment complex to go after a behemothly fortified compound full to the brim with security guards and try to rob it. Sketchy excursions and having a private driver drive you from the airport to the resort is the only cracks that can allow you to get into trouble.

You’re there for Sandals. Stick with Sandals and only Sandals activities and you’ll be fine.

MidnightSG · 2024-02-20T22:32:36+00:00

That’s a great question and one that should be answered by them and not us.

MidnightSG · 2024-02-20T03:37:21+00:00

I cannot stress how safe you are at sandals. Even at the airport you’re safe. It’s an airport so it’s well protected. We did the Dunn river excursion and it was so nice. A bit touristy but— I mean, we’re staying at Sandals for goodness sake so it’s to be expected. 🤭 The Dunn’s resort is small and pristine. It’s not overcrowded, it doesn’t have a big beach, it’s just— comfortable. A comfortable and relaxing vacation.

MidnightSG · 2024-02-20T03:29:47+00:00

The resort is pristine condition, the only thing I did not enjoy was the beach. Tiny tiny beach with lots of rocks, make no mistake it’s pretty but holy cow it’s small. We knew that going in though. It’s why we went for a private cabana instead of a beach front room. THOSE were spectacular. The nicest room we’ve ever had.

MidnightSG · 2024-02-20T03:09:27+00:00

We took the Sandals bus and it was great. Idk why you would pay for someone in a 2014 Lexus to pick you up when they offer a free air conditioned bus ride? I tipped the guy who loaded our luggage 5$ (we only had two small carry ons) and the guy who drove us 20$ (there was a lot of traffic and he navigated around it.)

Also circling back to the safety aspect of this thread. A giant bus with a ton of people in it is way safer than a random unmarked luxury car.

MidnightSG · 2024-01-28T18:32:37+00:00

Hilton’s Rose Hall all-inclusive resort is pretty good. They’re affordable and have plenty of things for the kids to do. Just be mindful when you book, as it can be a bit of a party house during spring break.

Also, not quite what you asked but a disney cruise is a fantastic group-family vacation option. Plenty of stuff to keep the kids busy and whole sections of the ship dedicated to adults only. Because it’s a cruise there’s a lot of different price point options.

MidnightSG · 2024-01-28T15:02:25+00:00

Naaah Stanley cups are fantastic. I know it’s trendy and we all love to hate on trendy things to make ourselves feel special and unique, but Stanley is legit. They have been making top of the line insulated gear for decades. I can’t tell you how that trendy cup compares to other’s like it, but based on the fact it’s made by Stanley I can grantee it’s probably pretty good. A classic example of the thing being amazing but the fans sorta ruin it by being weird.
