the thing abt diet culture is that there’s no way any junk food could possibly be more self destructive than viewing your own body as not only a separate entity from yourself but as an enemy to be conquered (Your picture was not posted)

HA so it’s a shortish chapter and all dialogue but it’s got to happen to set up the next thing. so.

chapter 2, on AO3 https://archiveofourown.org/works/28876890/chapters/71178306

Aiden gets Unwittingly Heteronormative, briefly; meanwhile Keira is not excited to get relationship advice from Philippa.

Philippa gave her a long look. “You’re a glutton for punishment, Keira,” she said. “Why do you let people treat you so badly?”

“I’m not letting anyone treat me badly,” Keira said, stung, “except maybe you.”

Philippa gestured with one hand, as if this illustrated her point. Well, it did, somewhat. “I’ll see you next week,” she said, with a small wry smile.

It was Lambert’s journal, the book he carried with him to write down what happened. “Hey,” he said, annoyed. Everything he wrote in it was ciphered, but Aiden knew some of the ciphers. But Aiden also knew that the book was private.

“I just felt the need to double-check some of your data,” Aiden said, very clearly deciding to be an ass instead of apologizing.

“That’s private,” Lambert said, reaching for the book.

“I died, Lamb,” Aiden said, putting up a hand to stop him.

“Fuck you,” Lambert said, because it fucking worked, he felt a pang in his chest and couldn’t bear to wrestle Aiden over the book. (Your picture was not posted)

Is it a game thing that Phillipa is a lesbian? Because in the books she has a love-hate sexual relat

She does, but also in the books it’s said she’s lost her taste for men. In the games I think she has a disastrous relationship with… ah in Witcher 2 she has a lover named Cynthia who I think is revealed to have been using her. She’s mentioned as preferring women in Time of Contempt and also in Baptism of Fire (I’m going by the notes section on her wikia page for that citation.)

but anyway here’s a screenshot from Time of Contempt in case anyone was wondering:

[image description: a screenshot from an ebook containing the line “If so, you ought to know someone’s played a mean trick on you. Philippa lost her taste for men some time ago.” It also describes Keira as “pouting her glistening lips” which is sending me thank you.]

I’m not denying that it’s sort of Problematic Representation; only villains in the books and videogames are actually homosexual. But she’s a great character. Just, not a nice one. (Your picture was not posted)
