what are your thoughts on Madoka and Sayaka's relationship? I always thought it was underrated for how complex and tragic it is.

Madoka and Sayaka's relationship function similarly to that of a knight and a princess, so both their friendship or couple pairing are interesting to me. It seems to be intentional that Sayaka was crafted with a knight motif in mind to click with Madoka's vulnerability. The tragedy is that Sayaka was way too young and inexperienced to be shouldering such expectations in a friendship. Taking up the role of a protector at every turn because she wanted to protect everyone has always been a contributing factor to how fast Sayaka burned out.

Contrarily, Madoka's struggle with her own helplessness throughout the show was also part of the reason why Sayaka said a lot of terrible thing to her, but deeply regretted her actions to the point where she succumbed to Witching out away from Madoka. Madoka, at least in this "final" timeline, was not there to see her own childhood best friend change into something else. To, in a way, "die", and be reborn as the same monster that all magical girls were hunting after in a frenzy. Homura was right that Sayaka brings Madoka grief — it seems that in almost timeline, since Sayaka becomes a Witch as long as she becomes a magical girl unlike Mami or Kyoko, Sayaka is a consistent source of Madoka's grief. Whenever Madoka becomes a magical girl, then, her aspirations are based on Sayaka's sacrifice and ideals, except Madoka actually has the power to "save everyone". I believe Madoka loved Sayaka as Sayaka may not have been an "effective" magical girl, but she was the one who was willing to sacrifice her soul for her ideals, regardless of how naïve they were. To Madoka, who was so ensnared by her sense of uselessness, Sayaka was the closest thing to an idol or a star for the courage required to be a magical girl. Sayaka's desire to make the world a safer and justified place for people was so inspiring to Madoka that even when Madoka becomes Kriemhild Gretchen, the Witch's whole gimmick is "creating heaven on earth, a Witch content only if there is no more grief in existence". A prospect deeply held onto by Madoka that even Gretchen embodies it.

It's probably why Madoka's wish to save all magical girls would definitely sound equally impossible to he audience and the incubators, but Madoka herself says, "If someone says it's wrong to hope, I will tell them that they're wrong every time." Sayaka was often called foolish for her ideals and hopes, and Madoka was the only other person aside from Kyoko who understands Sayaka's struggles so much that she outright tells people that Sayaka was never wrong — this is how Madoka protects Sayaka. Madoka would never want anyone to say any of the magical girls' wishes were wrong or foolish. It was how Sayaka also found her peace at the end of the show: to be understood and not viewed as an object that would eventually be replaced in the cycle of magical girls and Witches.

Madoka and Sayaka eventually learned how to protect each other. Sayaka doesn't need to suffer from her own overbearing expectations anymore, and Madoka can finally be something even more to protect her angel: A God.

#they are so tragic #madoka makes me cry thinking about how she was so compassionate that she never actually hated any of the witches #only ever looking upon them with sadness for what they were even before she knew how Witches were made #it's why i don't like people who claim they love madoka but despise sayaka #like you do understand that Madoka loved sayaka so much she made sayaka her own angel and tells you straight up that it's not wrong to hope #madoka not being unkind to sayaka despite everything is so...makes my heart hurt #Sayaka wasn't evil or selfish she just really wanted to mean a whole lot to someone that mattered #inevitably she was emotionally charged and in that moment she forgot madoka was always there for her and vice versa #which drove her to try and quietly witch out alone in a train station with kyoko #you can say what you wish but Sayaka's ideals were so tragic that both kyoko and madoka were affected by them #and that's the biggest tragedy of it all honestly #madoka scenes make me cry and I'm not kidding she wanted to help so bad #Sayaka Archives #ASKS 💌

cnstars hiiai impression translations!

first two are in the context of alkaloid, second two are keito lecture

tl notes and original text under cut

the phrase 一窍不通 (yī qiào bù tōng) - knows nothing is used several times across all slides to describe hiiro's inexperience

slide 1: hiiro says he keeps aira's words close to heart 至今 (zhì jīn) - to this day slide 2: 懵懵懂懂 (měng měng dǒng dǒng) - ignorant is also used to describe hiiro's inexperience, 迷茫 (mí máng) - confused/lost and 脆弱 (cì ruò) - fragile are used to describe hiiro's mental state after the incident with his brother slide 3: hiiro uses the phrase 拓宽眼界 (tà kuān yǎn jiè) - broaden horizons, 亲切 (qīn qiè) - kindly slide 4: 欲望 (yù wàng) - desire is used to describe hiiro's passion for learning, aira describes hiiro's practicing after lectures as 热衷 (rè zhōng) - (to be) keen on/eager to do so

original text

#hiiro amagi #aira shiratori #hiiai #enstars #i dont translate often so i apologize if the wording is confusing!! #and feel free to point out any mistakes #breathes heavily. the keeps close to heart to this day line absolutely destroyed me j was half crying while typing it out #hiiro hasn't mentioned that day specifically at all since it happened so seeing him finally say it is so. ragh #its not mentioned explicitly but i interpreted “those words he said to me” as The Lines from thermometry (mainstory ch 160) #EVEN TO THIS DAY!! TO THIS DAY!!!!!! HE WILL NEVER FORGET!!!!! #also the last line in aira -> hiiro keito lecture version kind of confused me #but i think its just aira being grateful that keito made him join keito lecture bc he is Not Very Good at school #and hiiro remembers everything they learn and can help him out even more #okay i need to do my actual homework now #bye bye #happy hiiai #⭑ tea rambles

Every time I see another theory that puts Perth on Non's side as his witness protector or his mafia escape artist or his BROTHER !!! or his boyfriend (no one has this theory. This is an agenda of me myself and I) I go a little more feral. Honestly I'm just a teething snuffling raccoon creature at this point

#now i do think tan is new it just makes sense #but wouldn't it be fun if he were actually just like phee's bestie #a fwb here to help out a homie he sometimes kisses #maybe tan is really named tan #and perth is an unnamed character BECAUSE his real name is a spoiler!!! #i love this theory ty tumblr user koddyroddy #that said i will gladly settle for perth as non's new on-the-run boyf yk in case you haven't heard me say it yet /manifests manifests #i get on my high horse about ppl who get too attached to their theories and get mad at dff for not being what they made up in their heads #lol AND on my high horse about people who want most of the cast to be better people than they are #but here i am like perth is gonna be a character who is 1. important 2. aligned with justice!!!! #if i want it enough it will be true!!! #first to go from thc for not crying enough but does that mean he can't Act?

I love Time and Time Again!! It was genuinely interesting to see two characters talk things out. Of course they kept secrets, but they knew when to reveal them and that made me want to stick around and read it. Thankyou for making such a wonderful comic!!

Thank you so much!!!

This really means a lot to me <3

I think there's generally a tendency to believe that relationships can't be nice in a romance or the story will be boring.

I understand where this idea comes from, stories should have conflict! And, real world relationships have conflict, as well. They always will! It makes sense that most stories centered around relationships would, inevitably, at some point, have disagreements, fights, anger...

I get why others enjoy it, its messy it's fun it's drama! but for me personally it just stresses me out since I've done so much work to NOT be like that!

As a writer, when presented with two people who are reasonably at odds with eachother, where neither of them is in the wrong per se, but someone still ends up hurt... it's a fun challenge to write them working through it in a believable way. it's a fun challenge, too, to put them into situations that feel equal and human.

I just think it's a necessary thing for who I am as a person to write relationships the way I do, and so I'm just very very very glad that other people resonate with it as well!

It means a lot. Thank you.

#me trying not to ramble on for paragraphs impossible challenge #asks #anon #I always love to talk about how uhhh #the perceptions we have of how relationships should be displayed #idk I dont think that theres any one way to do it #those relationships where people dont communicate and they fight all the time... #those happen. they happen all the time irl. #of course they would be reflected in fiction constantly! #but just for me personally #after YEARS and years and years of working on myself so I dont do that #I pause. think the best of my partner before jumping to conclusions. #take the moment to ask him hey #has anything been bothering you lately? things have been good but I want to be sure there's not little things I've done to hurt you #and i listen when hes telling me that yes. it did bother him when I made that joke the other day actually #and to learn to be patient #and not cry immediately #and listen #and ask instead of assuming #and always think the best thoughts first or whatever #its done me a world of good #and I dont think it is healthy for me personally as a person to write an unhealthy relationship with poor communication #because I get uhm... extremely invested in my writing... #in the way that it very much helps me learn about myself and practice habits. #cause obviously I still fail. of course I will #and I just would like to get as much practice as I can #of being better #for me and for him #and for all my friends

Have you heard the theory that Tim hallucinated Jason attacking him in the Tower? I dont remember much of the evidence folks had for it, but it would make the “Tim has major beef but Jason has no idea who he is” thing so much funnier if the Horrible Trauma that Tim’s stans always harp about never even happened

Now you couldn't mean this post by any chance could you? Or is there another post floating about - probably is but yes I do actually love this theory bc there's alot of evidence to back it up like how it doesn't make sense timeline wise - how Jason never mentions Tim in the whole of under the red hood - the odd things the titans say and how Tim is known to hallucination / have weird dreams - how Jason is acting weird including somehow hiding a whole other outfit under his first outfit - it all seems very dream state more then something that actually happened

#ask #anon #Me wholeheartedly believing Tim made up the titans Tower fight in his head #Is the basis for my #Tim hates Jason but Jason's got no clue who Tim is gag #I just think the whole fight was hilarious #And that people take it so seriously #Like friends Tim has been threw a lot worse #And people act like Tim was sitting there a 5 year old crying for help #When it's Tim #If he has to choice between self presivation or having the last word #He's gonst to get that last word #Even if he gets his teeth kicked in for doing it #If you've only ever read fanfic about that fight I highly recommend reading the comic itself #Bc your gonna be shocked and how actually completely stupid that whole fight was #Then maybe you'll understand why I think it was all just a dream

How would Dabi react to you feeling stressed/having a panic attack?

tw: panic attack.

dabi x fem!reader

it was since you woke up that you felt something heavy loom inside your chest and it was hard to breath, the amount of workload of those weeks was starting to get at you. dabi knows you well and has seen that there was something off in you that day even though you kept tell him it was nothing, smiling with your face but not eyes and that unsettled him.

as the day goes you, and you went to work, that overwhelming feeling inside your chest made you more and more uncomfortable than in the morning, it wasn’t helping you that things at your workplace were getting rough and your chief was in a bad mood making it hard on all the workers.

to make your emotional situation worse, after lunch break you were the one who got called out by your section’s chief for a little mistake you made in the file of an important document, a mistake you made in a moment you were unfocused, on the edge, to the point you even started to have cold sweat and shivers all over your body from how overwhelmed you were feeling.

as you kept listening to your chief screaming at you about that mistake, tears were starting to prickling at your eyes, lips trembling and slowly you were getting dizzy too, praying inside for all this to end as quickly as possible and when you were finally dismissed to your place, the want and need to get home only kept getting stronger.

finally arriving at home, you stopped at the entrance taking off your shoes and when you saw dabi’s boots there too a sob naturally left your mouth as tears started swelling up blurring your view; without even minding your shoes anymore you let your bag fall to the ground and rushed inside, reached the living room you looked around in tears and breath getting heavier by the second.

hearing all that commotion, dabi came out of your bedroom confused “so it’s you? i thought–”, he stopped the moment he saw the condition you were in.

when you saw him come out of your room, that was when you broke down crying profusely falling to the floor sobbing and starting to gasp for air; alarmed he rushed at your side right away resting his hands on your trembling shoulders right away, scanning you all over to see if there was something wrong before bending down to lock eyes with you, panic inside his eyes “baby what’s wrong?”, holding onto his forearms your breathing starts to get so erratic that a cough fit explodes, making it difficult for you to speak as your brain was starting to get foggy too “i can’t... breath...”, you managed weakly feeling your heartbeats thump fast inside your ribcage, body starting to tremble even more from all the overwhelming feelings you were holding back pouring out at once.

pressing his lips into a thin line “i’ll move you to the couch?”, dabi slid an arm around your back and the other under your knees lifting you up frantically, hurrying his way to the couch he delicately sat you on it before sitting at your side cupping your face with his palms slowly turning you to him to make your eyes lock “princess, try to focus on my voice...”, he spoke with calm voice and warm tone, despite feeling it far as you couldn’t still steady your breathing feeling it was about to crush you and tears unable to stop as you clung onto his shoulders for dear life, you nodded a few times. dabi felt a pang in his chest while seeing you like that “good. now look at me: breath in... breath out... slowly...”, he then started showing you how to do it, so you could mimic what he was doing and so you did, slowly, just like how dabi instructed “yeah... just like that... slowly in... and then out...”, and when he saw you keep doing as he said, his arms went to surround your shoulders gently pulling you to his chest, then with one hand he started to caress your head reassuringly “everything will be fine, i’m here with you, always.”, he kept reassuring you with both caresses and words as your breathing slowed down, heartbeats starting to get steady.

after you’ve calmed down, he moved face to face with you and moved strands of hair from your face before resting his palms on the sides of your neck, thumbs stroking tenderly your tear stained cheeks while staring lovingly into your eyes “you’re not alone baby, i’ll always be by your side.”, you nodded sniffing leaning in to hug his torso, muttering an hoarse “thank you...” as he hummed in response while hugging you back “now, what happened to break you like that?”, he asked with a deep and calm voice, way too calm actually.

the next day, when you arrived to work, you saw everyone split in groups whispering while looking at your section chief at his desk with hands in the hair looking desperate and disheveled, muttering under his breath on the brink of tears.

when you asked your co-workers what happened to him, they told you that that morning the section chief’s car suddenly blew up in front him out of nowhere.

[trentcrimminallybeautiful]

i have this silly little undeveloped au in my brain that's just like. tedependent but it's the sarah jane adventures. sort of. not literally in the doctor who universe necessarily but like. local intrepid reporter trent crimm investigating weird shit except the local neighborhood kids will not leave him alone.

i have so many thoughts about this but none of them are coherent enough for a proper fic i think:

i just think trent being good with kids, generally. go mentor figure trent! (what this has nothing to do with my thesis what do you mean)

trent, like sarah jane pre-series, having a sort of reputation in the neighborhood (or in general, since i'm also incorporating his actual canon vibes/story) as to being standoffish, aloof, cold, etc., and generally anti-social, keeping to himself. and as the kids keep dragging him into things kicking and screaming he might also be dragged kicking and screaming into a community <3

if his daughter is essentially luke does that mean he adopted her under Strange Alien-Related Circumstances? absolutely it does, yes.

see i've got two great ideas for ted/tedependent. on one hand, although in the context of SJA/nuwho i'm not so much one for sarah jane and the doctor as a Thing, ted playing the role of like. someone from trent's Mysterious Past who he won't talk about who set him on this path? someone who was kind and wonderful and changed his life but then--at least it feels like to him--abandoned him? someone who made him a better person--from doing whatever journalism he used to do to this--someone who he's still kinda in love with... but trent can no longer even really talk to......until he shows up again? that's some good shit, not gonna lie. although i'm jimmying that into a happy ending somehow, goddamn it.

ALTERNATIVELY. henry being one of the Neighborhood Kids (as if we're using "canon" kids, we've got limited options) and ted being an oblivious parent. trent is trying to get these kids to STOP POKING INTO DANGEROUS ALIEN NONSENSE PLEASE THIS IS HIS JOB PLEASE STOP BREAKING INTO HIS HOUSE but they're stubborn and smart and they may or may not have saved his life once or twice and oh GOD THIS IS SO IRRESPONSIBLE but he can't just TELL THESE RANDOM NEIGHBORS about ALIENS. but like anyway this just painful secret identity-esque nonsense where ted knows henry's taken a shine to that nice journalist down the street and his daughter but does NOT know that henry is getting into Shenanigans(TM). this could lead into all sorts of drama about, you know, his kid being in danger... or, alternatively, ted has worked with some unit/torchwood-esque place before and is like OHH you know what? this explains that time i thought i heard you speaking an alien language. cool, cool. and trents like. .....WHAT

etc. i'm not wording this well but i think you get the idea.

if you really really wanted to make it complicated you could do both, considering the doctor's whole thing--either a fob watch or a regeneration--but honestly, i don't want to do that, so i won't

some of the adults do definitely get involved though. keeley either clocks that shit right away or thinks she's clocked it but she's actually clocked something entirely different. she's like i know you're mi6 babe ;) and he. is not. meanwhile roy having ten freakouts in a row and then being like nvm i'm fine with this. (is not fine with this, but will be eventually). jamies like yeah aliens. everyone knows about those. and they're like what?? no they dont?? and so on.

is beard an alien? genuinely no one's sure. he's not telling.

HOLD ON can i give trent k-9???? can trent crimm get a robot dog?????? yes please i think he deserves a robot dog

also see the trickster episodes? bet you could do something real fucked up with those.

i feel like i had more when i started this post but i don't remember

this not well thought out at all and i have no idea where everyone would fit in

anyway my point is. trent crimm, intrepid journalist, running around trying to stop alien shenanigans while Those Meddling Kids keep following him around. trent crimm doin a little Breaking And Entering. scooby doo shit. and he has such an interesting mix of seeming suave and badass and then immediately doing something embarrassing. trent crimm--via shenanigans and also Those Meddling Kids dragging him into their lives (aka he tries to keep his distance SO badly and only is involved when dangerous shit is going down but like then it's all. child knocking on his door like IT'S AN EMERGENCY OPEN UP and hes like WHAT WHAT IS IT and theyre like can you help me with my homework :( and hes like. fuck. yeah fine what do you want help with. (some subjects he's very helpful on others he's VERY not) until they're like okay but you're coming to this bbq right. and he's like? no? and they're like you're coming to this bbq right. and so on) ANYWAY the point is they keep dragging him into their lives and now oops! trent actually knows his neighbors and has to go through the mortifying ordeal of being known. but that also means that when he gets badly hurt or sick he's used to the empty hospital room but now he actually gets people showing up and forcing baked goods on him and shit and i'm just feeling a lot of things about this extremely hypothetical au based on my already existing feelings about trent gaining a community in s3/post-canon,

wait does this mean trent gets sonic lipstick? HELL YEAH IT DOES

#well actually i have a LOT of silly little underdeveloped aus in my brain but #anyway. crack edition: the football players are still football players. #trent crimm wondering why he's trying to stop an alien spaceship from blowing up the block #with the help of a team of famous football players. roy kent just punched a raxicoricofallapatorian. #trent on the couch with a black eye bc they had a run in with a sontaron or some shit: [holding up peas to his face] okay. #so jamie tartt is here for some reason. and also the neighbor i have a crush on. and also his son. and also colin. this is fine #that's all a joke obviously but the imagery has me cackling #anyway this also made me think of trent as river song which doesnt work at first glance but then when i think about some PARTICULAR things #makes me cry. like. just. meeting him in reverse. #it's s3 trent--dorky and open and softer but sadder--that he meets first #and by the time he reaches the end he sees how far he's come out of his shell and how unhappy he was #but then they have their moment... #sorry that's also barely coherent and definitely wouldn't make a cohesive au without a lot more work im just spinning thoughts in my brain #trent crimm #tedependent #tedtrent #ted x trent #sja au #tvtcau #the first one before i even had that lol
