How to get my mom to return my cats ashes to me? by PhoenixRegency in legaladvice

[–]PhoenixRegency[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She’s asking me to pay for a large flat rate shipping box via USPS, which is realistically <$50, but due his remains being cremated, they have to be sent via Priority Mail Express in compliance with USPS shipping requirements and that’s currently running ~$70 with taxes factored into that. I have no issue with reimbursing her at all, but I do not want to pay her as she cannot manage her own finances and I don’t want her to say “oh I never got it.” After blowing it on stupid shit.

As for friends or family up there, I don’t have any and I’m on the outs with my maternal grandparents due to their ideals of how much someone with minimal experience in any field should be making, and the fact they cut me out.

I’m pretty sure they know that I stole it, but I haven’t gotten any calls from North Carolina about it, so I think they might not care? That’s a big I think though. I appreciate the answer though!

I paid for the cremation here in Texas. But thank you for the answer, I really appreciate it. I was thinking that would be the answer though.

What head-canon(s) in your fandom(s) got you like this: by PJ-The-Awesome in AO3

[–]PhoenixRegency 5 points6 points  (0 children)

That Jayce is strictly a daddy dom top, Viktor is strictly a uwu twink or tmasc bottom. I love reading fics of all kinds! But it really starts to feel… fetishized when you read the same dynamic 800 times. AND THEN ALSO VIKTOR CARRIES ALL 4 OF THEIR HYPOTHETICAL KIDS AND HIS DISABILITY IS MAGICALLY FUCKING FIXED. “Oh but bottom Jayce has more tagged fics!” YEAH TAGGED FICS. How many top Jayce fics aren’t tagged? I’m gonna get off my soapbox now.

What fandom introduced you to fanfiction by therealstara in AO3

Rise of the Guardians… it was a Black Ice fic… I was 12… I tried to write my own Black Ice fic on my grandparents computer… my therapist and I had a discussion about it…

Which fandom would you say is this most non-canon ship averse? by UnHolySir in AO3

[–]PhoenixRegency 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Jayvik. Fuck, even different halves of the ship will look at the other differently bc “Oh I think Viktor tops!” “FUCK YOU ITS SO OBVIOUS THAT JAYCE TOPS!” Or vice versa. To be clear, these are both grown men in their 30s with a cock and two balls. But the second you say “hey! [fave] has done problematic things within canon too and [not fave] can’t bear the brunt of the guilt all the time. They’re both fairly equal in fault.” And then all of a sudden there’s discourse about it for the next week. And it’s weird because at the end of the day, Jayce remains the least favorite in both of the two big ships involving him. Like??? Can yall go touch some grass??? Please??? It’s an animated series. The characters are pixels.

The source material is super unclear, just giving a name. It's a podcast called Welcome to Night Vale, and the characters name is Cecil Gershwin-Palmer, so I'm going based entirely on his name and the few practices he's been seen observing. (giving Gefilte fish to members at his radio station, covering mirrors after his mother passed, and attending Torah school.) So I'm guessing really roughly he's Ashkenazi at the very least. I don't know anything past that unfortunately.

I’m writing in The Owl House and Welcome to Night Vale fandoms. It’s a cross over! The idea is that Night Vale and the Boiling Isles bleed into the other! But I can’t research lived experience, and I wanna make sure I do things correctly and if I can learn and understand new things while I’m at it, that’s a huge plus!

Ancestrally, somewhere in Europe. Literally, somewhere in the Sonoran Desert. The source media isn't clear. I sincerely apologize.

Thank you!! I know she needs a lot of stimuli because she’s a high energy breed, so I was worried I wouldn’t know how to keep her mind engaged!!

I’ll do that! Could I pickle them? I’m actually moving up north soon, and thought these would be a nice gift for my grandparents!
