Before kidnapping Sita, Ravana raped Rambha, Queen of the apsaras, and her husband Nalkuber cursed Ravana that if he ever raped another woman, his head would split in seven. This curse later protected Sita from the worst of Ravana’s torments. So I’d like a fic where Nalkuber goes off on Rama that if Ravana has raped Sita, his curse would have taken effect, and how dare Rama disregard a god’s curse, and what did Rambha suffer for then?
It lingers in Nalkuber’s memory, later; after all is said and done.

hello, yes, 911? I’d like to report this scene for personally victimizing me
LOOK AT CROWLEY’S FACE WHEN AZIRAPHALE BRANDISHES THE SWORD. THAT IS THE FACE OF A DEMON WHO THINKS HE’S ABOUT TO BETRAYED BY THE ANGEL HE LOVES.
Aziraphale looks at the sword like he knows he should be using that as a threat, but that’s DUMB, this is Crowley, and he has better threats! Like never speaking to him again!
And look at Crowley’s face when Aziraphale says that!
To quote @kedreeva: “Oh no he’s going to threaten to kill me himself…OH NO, IT’S WORSE.”
“Do something or I’ll never talk to you again!”
And then Crowley does! something! because he can’t abide the thought

When someone says these days sexism and misogyny don’t exist anymore show them this.
it’s a super short scene in the show but it says so much. crowley never does anything that really harms anyone (see: paintballs & pennies & phone lines), little of it is cruel in the ways that humans can be cruel — which makes it even more meaningful that he chooses humanity in the end. sure, he needs to drink for days to deal with it, but when he’s sober again, he stays
So many Girl Meets World fans out there miss this amazing show. I do too. However upon trying to fill the void in my heart that Girl Meets Wold left me, I can say without a doubt that I have found five great family television series that have definitely helped me miss GMW a little less. Below are those five TV shows that I definitely feel hard core Girl Meets World fans will enjoy. Please share so many other GMW fans can have the chance to check out these series as well.
5. The Kicks - This ten episode long series focuses on a high school age female soccer player who moves to a new school and has to adjust to living in a new community and has to fit in with a new soccer team. The series is basically a five hour long sports movie but it does feature very relatable and realistic teenage girls. Plus the show is still interesting for all members of the family as well since the main characters’ parents and younger brother get plenty of screen time too experiencing their own interesting side stories and character development. It’s a simple show but it’s not stupid or dumbed down for kids, so it’s a pretty solid watch. *Available on Amazon Prime Video.
4. Sydney to the Max - This recently premiered series focuses on a young single girl named Sydney being raised by her single father as she navigates the simple and somewhat major problems that come from growing up in middle school. However the unique factor of the show is that Sydney’s father: Max gets plenty of focus as well since every episode features flashbacks to when he was a kid in the 90′s, thus showing viewers of all ages how much preteens have and have not changed in the last three decades. While most episodes feature simple sitcom plots, the strength of the show is the strong bond between Sydney and her father Max (and also Sydney’s super fun grandmother). The family of the show genuinely cares for each other and it often results in some very genuine and wonderful heart felt moments. *Available to watch on Disney Now.
3. Just Add Magic - This epic fifty episode long fantasy series focuses on three middle school age girls who come into the possession of a magical book that provides them with recipes to create magical food that can create major spells and curses on those that eat them. While the premise for this show sounds strange, this series is surprisingly one of the most solid children’s shows ever made in TV history. After the pilot episode (which is a little cringe worthy at times), the show begins to evolve into an epic fantasy mystery show. The mysteries are actually very well handled and the show’s mythology is very intriguing and concise. Plus the three girls of the show become three very intelligent young women that become great role models for female viewers watching. It’s a show with plenty of amazing surprises, surprisingly super smart writing, and great characters any one should check out. *Available on Amazon Prime Video.
2. Andi Mack - In this hit Disney series that has gained a huge following, a girl named Andi Mack’s entire world is shattered when she learns the woman she grew up thinking was her older sister was actually her mother who became pregnant with her when she was a teen. From this point onward the show becomes the story of figuring out what a family is as both daughter and young mother have to figure out their new roles as they both slowly mature and learn to become the type of responsible person they’re supposed to be at their current age. On top of that, the show tackles all sorts of realistic issues modern young people face in this day and age such as communicating with those with disabilities, teens having possession of guns, panic attacks, and dealing with peers coming out as gay. It may not be a show for very young viewers (and honestly in later episodes it begins to get a bit soap-operay with maybe too many love triangle sub-plots), but the show definitely addresses some terrific and intelligently complex mature life lessons that Disney has been long overdue at addressing. *Available to watch on Disney Now.
1. Gortimer Gibbon’s Life on Normal Street - Despite the strangely long title, this is one of the most solid and best written family shows of all time. The show focuses on a boy named Gortimer along with his two best friends Mel and Ranger (and eventually many more kids) who go about their normal lives in a seemingly normal neighborhood. But every now and then a simple but strange supernatural occurrence happens which eventually leads to the characters learning an important life lesson. What helps this show a lot is that the life lessons are very relevant to all ages and the characters are very down to earth and relatable. The humor is simple and subdued and the general atmosphere of the series has a strange way of making it engaging to both young kids and grandparents. The series’ stories vary from simple ones such as trying to win a school science fair, to much darker and mature stories that deal with the sudden death of a loved one. The series is only 39 episodes long but it winds up being just the right length as the short number of episodes wind up being just long enough to tell every necessary tale with the characters. *Available on Amazon Prime Video.
Aziraphale blinked rapidly. “One of…” he trailed off in realisation. “You—You made…? Before you…?”
The demon turned away. “Yup.” He popped the ‘p’ sound, shrugging. The light in his eyes shuttered a little, flickering behind something deep and aching. Aziraphale started to move his hand before he realised what he was doing, then pulled it back and let it fall into his lap.
“I could show you, if you like.” Crowley’s tone was flippant, but the tension in his posture was unmistakable.
“Show me…?” asked Aziraphale.
Crowley held up a hand, flexing his fingers in a jerky wave. “The nebula. If you wanted.”
Aziraphale’s eyes widened. “Oh. Oh.”
Crowley waited, hand help up in offer. Aziraphale’s heart hammered in his chest. He felt altogether too human, some unknown chasm gaping at his feet.
“…alright.”
