#nicholas d wolfwood #meryl stryfe #trigun #trigun stampede #honestly the grand highlight. #anyway i think i ... drained all my thoughts of ep12 on saturday. i was like... all day drawing stuff for that episode and then circling #those thoughts but mainly #im just excited for season 2. im so so excited for s2. AND IM EXCITED FOR.. all of the steady appearance of trimax stuff again #like when they recited quote to quote of vash and knives conversation when they were on their way up to space #the i'll keep running and after 150 years this is what you have to say godddddd #GODDDDDD i felt so much in that moment. GODDDDDDD #IM REALLY EXCITED... because i dont know what to necessarily expect from s2 too. there is a LOT of setup that happened in s1 and it #will fundamentally change how we view the characters and their relationships to one another i think? especially the main trio and #and and and and MILLLLYYYYYYYY GAHHHHHHHH IM SO EXCITED FOR HER!!! MILLY!!!!!! we all knew she was coming back. it was only natural. #i really hope they keep as Much as they can from the original design. ESPECIALLY HER PERSONALITY. god. do not take away her personality. and #do not take away her bigness i will CRY. but overall im happy the og 4 are going to be back and theyll be closer than before bc of all they #experienced together.... and ahhhh everything with knives... vash and his eriks arc.... #im rambling again but there's obviously a lot of hype there...eughh eughehu i love trigun so much i love love love love trigun #ruporas art

I keep thinking about how I couldn’t get close enough to them. Bending them over, buried full length inside them, and all I could was grab their body harder and pull them into me so I could push even further into them, to get as much as possible inside them.

#unimportant thoughts #i just. cant get close enough. #cant get deep enough. #i want to bury myself inside them. #made me want to to cry with frustration i couldnt get closer than we already were #i needed more. #and they were taking it so well it hurt them so bad and they still wanted more :( #they wanted more as well :( #they wanted everything i could give them and more :(

I always wondered how the gang reacts when mochi comes back!!! I bet lime would be on her side at all times to make sure she doesn't disappear again, watching her sleep, following her around the house, then mochi has to go to the bathroom and he's anxiously waiting lmao

strangely the first person to know shes back is taffy!!! when she decides to hunt down the guild again, she goes to sulluvan to find out their approximate location. her plan was to find the others first, and lime last, so she could (hopefully) get from them a little temperature check on how lime would feel about all of it

(by that i mean she was very worried about whether or not he would want to see her. she realizes what she did was a very jerk move, and if he was moved on and happy without her (married with a kid or something) then she didnt want to interfere with that, even by just showing up. so she wanted to check with oscar and coco if theyd kept in contact with him, and how hes been/if looking for him is a good idea)

sulluvan gives her the locations of taffy/coco/oscar, but tells her to hold off on lime if shes not going straight to him first. "That boy moves around quite a bit. Unless you're going to see him right now, he'd be somewhere else entirely by the time you got around to him," he tells her.

taffy is the first to see her. she went to coco and taffy first, and while she was standing outside their apartment building thinking about what she wants to say, taffy comes home. he is the MOST calm out of all of them. (granted knew her the shortest and therefore wasnt as close to her as the others). when he brings her upstairs to their apartment and coco sees her, she tackles her to the floor and straight up starts weeping. (and then grabs pom and manhandles her as well)

oscar had a similar reaction. the kind you would have after a chance encounter with a friend after a long time. a lot of "Oh my god!!!!" and tight hugs!! obviously all of them are thrilled to get back into guild work, they were getting bored of their current lives (oscar timeskip story currently pending)

when she asks them about lime, oscar and coco just kinda give each other a knowing look, take a moment to reflect about his down bad ass and what hes been doing for the last 3 years, before finally going "Yeah I honestly think he'd be down to rejoin." "Yeah echoing that. Hes not doing anything useful." (they both know about his m34th work. coco whispers to oscar "Should we tell her?" and he replies "Isn't it more entertaining if she finds out organically?")

when they find lime, hes in the middle of a mission. doing something something i dont know, its combat though. fighting the giant tree monsters on the far edge of the giants thicket since they were terrorizing the farmers in the area. at first he didnt even realize it was her, it just seemed like some npc pedestrian caught up in the fight. doesnt even turn to look at her, just yells something generic like "Get back to the village, I can handle this!!"

and at first mochi didnt even register what the hell he was wearing, but she knew his voice and stature and the unmistakeable hair color. shocked at that response (i think she knew he didnt know it was her), she probably yells something at him to get his attention

and he recognizes her voice as soon at it comes out. it takes him a couple seconds to even process what he just heard enough to turn around, and honestly when he sees her, he thinks hes hallucinating. "...I'm losing my fucking mind, apparently." he thinks. "Illusion spell? No, what the fuck? That doesn't work on me. Maybe I didn't get enough sleep last night? I've never hallucinated like that before though. Maybe its some shape shifter something. Can those also mimic voices?--" just a sample of the 100 different thoughts he has in about 1 second.

but when he hears her again, a soft little "H...Hi Lime-!" that is barely even audible over the current atmosphere, he doesnt care. it could be some trick, who knows? I dont, he thinks, thats mochi.

let me tell you this boy SPRINTS to her. the amount of force in his embrace is honestly a little terrifying. mochi started sobbing instantly. No words even said, beyond a soft "Hi mochi." he mumbles into her neck. but her tears soak into his shoulder and they stay like that for god knows how long. It takes coco zipping back like "Uhhh hey sorry to interrupt soft moment but we've been holding off the tree monsters for a few minutes and oscar is getting whacked like a ragdoll soooo--"

(even then it takes lime a bit to let her go LMFAO!!! mochi is like "Oh no! Poor oscar!" and when she tries to let go lime is just LOCKED on her. "No. Not yet. He'll be fine." his voice muffles out as hes squeezing her against him. it takes a few whacks to his arm and a lot of "LIME BE SERIOUS!!" for him to very begrudgingly let her go)

but youre right hes definitely a bit clingy afterwards. maybe not in the most direct way, but he constantly has an eye on her/is standing close/wont let her go somewhere by herself kind of thing (which mochi is very happy with because she misses him like crazy. honestly shes a little nervous talking to him because shes worried they wont be like they used to, but the more they converse the more shes like "Oh hes the same as always....good.")

#reunion scene makes me soft #he does have some choice words for her regarding her choice to see him LAST #(I thought we were closer than that but I guess fucking oscar is more priority than me. ok.) #lore #text #bpp

i love being several years older than my year group at university because i can just do an age reveal as a fun party trick

#yesterday i thoroughly shocked my friend's boyfriend who has known me for several years because he always thought i was younger than him #(i am three years older) #for context in scotland people start uni at like 17. 16 even #most internationals started at 18 #i'm from finland we graduate high school at 19. i was closer to 20 by the time i started university #i'm doing a masters and they all think i'm like 20-21 </3 #also last summer i did an internship among phd students and they were treating me as like a young little gen zer asking me for opinions on #tiktok trends and stuff because i'm 'so young' and i was like guys i'm literally your age. they said they thought i was 19 </3

Transformers animated but instead of Optimus being expelled and becoming a spacebridge technician, it's Sentinel Prime. It's Sentinel Prime who ends up leading team Prime on earth, I'd love to see how their personalities change and what stays the same

Will Sentinel not go down the same xenophobic route, will UM give him his own thinly veiled insult? What will being Ultra Magnus's protégé and becoming the leader of the elite guard do to Optimus (... If he becomes that). Are we heading into "it's only this handful of characters who are shattered glass" territory?? Will we see Sents rank stripped actually bc Ngl that's a definite possibility?

#maccadam #transformers #tfa sentinel prime #tfa optimus prime #tfa ultra magnus #you can tell I've thought a lot about Sent #i think about him in the samd way i see damus/glitch/tarn: i want to see the directions his character can go #i want to see if we can save him #especially since he isn't quite as brutal as say tarn is #he's a LOTTTTTT younger too #will he be a bit meaner than canon oppy is? probably! #but canon oppy and his team were originally sort of mean to each other #i see the knight symbolism in sent's design and i wanna see where it can go #this also gives jazz a closer connection to Optimus again #transformers animated

The photographer of the handholding moment, Ella Ling, who was there covering Team Europe throughout the whole night recounted how shocked she was to truly realise for the first time how close Nadal and Federer actually were.

Kudos to @keepitmovinshawty for flagging this interview!!

#i mean all this time we thought we were blowing our own trumpets but boy apparently WE WEREN'T BLOWING IT HARD ENOUGH #what is even this metaphor lol sorry #they are actually closer than what we imagined them to be which is frankly just ridiculous at this point #fedal #tennis #roger federer #rafael nadal

my mother watched saltburn, by herself, 2 weeks ago. AND THIS WOMAN ONLY DECIDED TO TELL ME AB IT TODAY!!

#i’m actually so mad at her #i said i was ashamed and dissapointed bc i swore we were closer than this #and she responded with: #‘i was ashamed in myself too that why i couldn’t tell you’ #my mom 😭😭😭 #no but she said she felt sinful when she saw barry kehogan dance naked but she couldn’t take her eyes off him bc he was so mesmerising #excuse me mama 🤨🤨 #anyways she said the grave scene was the worse for her #i was shocked i thought it would’ve been the bathtub one #shellxrls.txt

Unenlightened: The Knight of the Dawn and Princess Leia were both perfect analogues for both Aurora's parents and the Aurora and Prince Philip from the 1959 Sleeping Beauty movie relationship wise.

Enlightened: The Knight of Dawn and Princess Leia had a relationship superficially like the stereotypical fairy tale couple, but actually married/make it seem like their relationship was romantic out of convenience and to spite Henrik so Leah could secure her right to the throne and eventually fell in love along the way/did still have Silver and loved him but didn't love one another like that.

Ascended: The Knight of the Dawn and Princess Leia were in a fake relationship but one was either Ace/also batted for their own team and fake dated mostly so Leah could get suitors off her back, on occasion they were one another's wingman/woman.

#twisted wonderland #twisted wonderland meme #kinda #twisted wonderland knight of the dawn #the knight of the dawn #twisted wonderland Princess Leia #I know it's highly unlikely #but I think it would be really funny in hindsight #and a fun twist to the usual fairy tale trope as twisted wonderland likes to do #with people being analogues and walking similar roads to their og counterparts but never quite aligning due to different circumstances #I personally think that since we didn't get much on Leia (which might actually be on purpose) that we can do a lot with her #and personally I think it would be interesting if her and Dawn were closer relationship wise to Lily Orlamunde and Duke Randolph #from the Holy Grail of Eris or Kaeyena and Raffaello from The Villainess is a Marionette #than the usual fairy tale couple. I mean she likely was the first in succession unlike Henrik for a reason #I mean the bar is down in the Underworld for that. But I like to think it's because she was more capable alongside being know for her beaut #might just be me #I have way too many thoughts on TKoD and Leia #I also think that maybe the reason Henrik knew he could get Dawn to fight by threathening Leia is less because she was vulnerable #but because since Henrik is a rank above Dawn he techinically could raise enough of a fuss to separate them #And that could put Leia in a VERY unfavorable position in the future alongside taking one of the few things TKoD truly has #Might just be the sleep deprived thoughts tho I dunno

#2006 mom and 2008 dad IM SORRY???????? #even past the teen pregnancy 16 and 18 are so fucking far when youre that young #also im not saying this like ugh we should shun teen parents and treat them like trash NO #but can we talk about this spike. why are there so many now i thought it was dropping. #and why is it suddenly bragging rights you are so young!!!!! having a child is such a big fucking deal why are you doing it at 16 #out of CHOICE??????? #the tree speaks #and people are jealous and saying not everyone goes to school or college and if they have money and space its fine #girl. they are CHILDREN. #more than that it almost feels like. its for clout right. like im not speculating thats genuinely what it is #so more than even the parents who were profiting off of their kids and influencer culture's impact on any kid right now #its kids who are affected by that having children specifically to raise them in that environment #and i get you know finding community online especially in that situation when #closer family and friends might push you away #but this is not what that is. and its fucking scary.

BEST thing. about the five kingdoms end. is that it's implied cole and jenna aren't a thing thank god. brutal ending still but at least there's that.

#mullblogging #as i started typing this post i was hit with the thought of like the most unhinged fic about cole and jenna friendship breakup #bc of what happened with the outskirts. not like. the outskirts drove them apart. #the forgetting did. #here is someone you are closer to than pretty much anyone else in the world but as time goes on and as the forgetting occurs #you find yourself wondering: how did we become like this anyway? why are we so close? do we talk? did we? #what's the basis for this friendship? #and over time. you drift apart. you were bound by an experience that you can no longer recall. #it's like a fantasy version of the way all my middle school friendships ended. #good lord thids was suppose to be a mild hater post and now ive got demons

Our beach camping trip was both a success and a failure.

I got there Friday around 5pm after a 6 hour drive. My one friend and her two corgis were already there. Faye knows these dogs well and Forte has met them once before on a hike. All four reacquainted themselves with some sniffing and then took to playing. Forte was more than thrilled to lead the corgis on a merry chase and the corgis, being corgis, were happy to chase him while yelling their fool heads off. I wish I had thought to video it because it was really cute.

After we let the dogs tire themselves out we went to a local place for dinner. We had the whole patio to ourselves and all four dogs napped under the table while we ate. It was also nice to catch up with my friend. A few people spotted the corgis and squealed over them and we let the dogs meet their adoring fans. Forte wasn't on duty so I gave him permission to say hi as well and he actually stuffed himself into one lady's lap, which she told me would be the highlight of her weekend.

When we arrived back at the beach the dogs played some more while we set up camp. It was cool and the wind was picking up but not too bad. I positioned the portable crate against my tent so the tent was blocking the brunt of it. I put a towel over it (weighed down) so it was covering part of the back, front, and exposed side. And when we went to bed around 1:45am Faye went in without prompting and immediately went to sleep. Forte and I got cozy in the tent as the air mattress I bought was bigger/taller than expected and left us closer to the ceiling than I would have preferred.

He woke once around 2:40am and grumbled when the wild horses came through but settled after they left and snuggled me till I got up around 6.

And that's where things went down hill.

I thought the wind sounded worse than it was because I was in a tent. But it was whipping sand around to the point that our other friend, who showed up in the small hours, was wearing ski gear to protect herself.

While we were sitting/chatting/waiting for our friend to get up both Faye and Forte were hunkered down, Forte next to me and Faye under the table. They both were low growling at every dog who passed even remotely close by. Which is out of character for them. Faye can get testy about another dog in her face but both of them are generally neutral even around reactive dogs.

I took the dogs on an hour long walk off the beach to burn some energy/avoid being pelted by sand in the hopes that would help.

But even when we set up on the beach closer to the water with less dry sand for the wind to whip up both dogs were clearly uncomfortable. To the point that they started snarling at even my friends dogs for getting too close. At that point I decided to call it quits. My friends were disappointed (the one I'm less close to was actually pretty derisive) but I packed up anyway.

If the dogs were having a good time and only I was not, I'd have sucked it up and stayed. But I just don't see the point in staying when they're both so stressed out that they're being reactive. That's so far out of character for them that I'd be hard pressed to justify it even if I were having a great time.

So yeah, I left. It sucked, I felt shitty, and it wasn't particularly fun to have driven a total of 11 hours for a less than 24 hour stay. But in the end I'm unwilling to subject my dogs to a situation where they're that far over threshold when I have no way to give them relief from it.
