Beyond the Violet Mist: Venting

Venting

You may have been wondering, after reading my previous two posts, whether I have seen season three episode eleven yet, as I intended to watch it last night. On the other hand, you may also be wondering whether I'm done with my obsession over Once Upon a Time yet, and whether I might do at least one blog post this week about something other than said amazing fantasy T.V. show. Well, yes, I did watch the winter mid-season finale last night, and no, I am not over my obsession yet, and no, while I was originally intending to do a blog post on another subject this week, I'm not going to, because... I just can't now.

I watched the mid-season finale but I almost wish I hadn't. I don't know. I mean, I needed to watch it but... I wish it had been different. Well, immediately after I watched it, I was so overwhelmed and outraged and afraid and mad and distraught, that I sat down and I just had to write out what I felt. I wrote a hypothetical letter to the writers of Once Upon a Time expressing my... utter exasperation. Then, I looked at it and thought, well, maybe this will work as a blog post, being as I already have it written and all.

I more or less wrote it from the perspective of me being the Wicked Queen (but not Regina, closer to the one I played for speech, but not exactly that, either). I let my anger at the writers for doing what they did with the storyline out in this letter, and I was basically creatively threatening them throughout if they wouldn't fix all the things they messed up. So, be forewarned, I am copy-pasting the letter here in uncensored form. It contains my uttermost rage and despair at the show. It might be kind of graphic, but I needed to write it.

You know what, it's actually maybe too graphic. I may have to censor it first. For now I'll just post this introduction and anticlimactic conclusion as my last post of the week, because I think I've done enough writing to suffice this week. I'll just call this my fake-out post or something.

As to my unpublished letter, suffice to say, it involved me threatening to come after the writers of Once looking like this

if the writers didn't listen to me and obey me and fix things. A censored version of the letter may or may not come your way next week. I found this picture from a google image search, and when I searched by image to find out from whence it came, this site came up: http://onceuponatime.wikia.com/wiki/Rumplestiltskin, though I didn't see the pic there. Beyond the violet mist, we almost posted a letter of rage on our blog, but didn't.

Kitty Cat of the Month

We all know that kittens are adorable, but do you know something else cute? Baby chicks. This year, my grandma is raising chickens, and as such there is currently an old water tank in her garage filled with eleven fluffy little chicks. Well, they're starting to get their feathers in now, actually, but they're still really cute. Their names include En (Norwegian for one), the first hatched, Francis (I was trying to think of good gender neutral names since we don't know what they are yet), Ash, Smaug (my cousins wanted to do LotR/Hobbit names), Pippin (it took a long time to hatch and my mom was like "it's still a-pippin at that shell!" and so we called it Pippin), and various others (it's hard to keep them all straight! Especially the yellow ones). So, to celebrate the cuteness, this month's kitty of the month is snuggling a baby chicky rather like my grandma's :)

Monthly (or Yearly) 'Something Awesome'

If you'll forgive this bit of self promotion, I was really quite proud of my trunk or treat this Halloween and so I decided to put it up here. I made Penguin's Iceberg Lounge specifically from Gotham, complete with frozen iceberg Ed (to the right of myself). Almost no one got what it was, and no one at all got my Gotham references, so now I’m sharing it with the internet. Click through on the picture to see my tumblr post with more pictures; I also plan to share more specific breakdowns of my trunk decor features later on, so stay tuned.

Bible Quotes of the Year Most Likely

1 John 4: "7 Beloved, let us love one another: for love is of God; and every one that loveth is born of God, and knoweth God. 8 He that loveth not knoweth not God; for God is love. In this was manifested the love of God toward us, because that God sent his only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through him. 11 Beloved, if God so loved us, we ought also to love one another. 16 And we have known and believed the love that God hath to us. God is love; and he that dwelleth in love dwelleth in God, and God in him. 20 If a man say, I love God, and hateth his brother, he is a liar: for he that loveth not his brother whom he hath seen, how can he love God whom he hath not seen?"

Deuteronomy 22: “1 Thou shalt not see thy brother’s ox or his sheep go astray, and hide thyself from them: thou shalt in any case bring them again unto thy brother. 3 In like manner shalt thou do with his ass; and so shalt thou do with his raiment; and with all lost thing of thy brother’s, which he hath lost, and thou hast found, shalt thou do likewise: thou mayest not hide thyself.” (From my notes in the margin: Don’t pretend you don’t see when others are hurting. Do what you can to help them.)

Luke 1: "37 For with God nothing shall be impossible."

Psalm 139: "2 Thou knowest my downsitting and mine uprising, thou understandest my thought afar off. 3 Thou compassest my path and my lying down, and art acquainted with all my ways. 7 Whither shall I go from thy spirit? Or whither shall I flee from thy presence? 9 If I take the wings of the morning, and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea: 10 Even there shall thy hand lead me, and thy right hand shall hold me. 14 I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made: marvellous are thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well."
