#ITS JUST SO INSTINCTUAL

[umblrspectrum]

hi heres art so you pay attention to me now go read the tags

#ive been rewatching episode 7 like its the only thing on youtube and made note of many things #first off. the solver can only have one host. nori mentions skyn wants to kill off all the other solver hosts (with the dds) and disregards #the idea of both uzi and doll being its current host when they get chased #plus the main solver possessions only occur when skyn is out of the picture (the fightt in ep 7 is only after n decapitates “tessa”) #solver uzi is possible too but i dont count her cause she doesn't have the yellow #personal theory is that its more an instinctual response to overheating or something and not full on possession #second off nori calls the solver cyn. how does she know that name #cyn was on earth and only showed up to copper 9 recently and i presume nori's been here her whole life #it probably wasn't the other dds cause none of them made it down and they're all more savage beasts #since cyn specifies n's team retained their personalities and that makes me think the other teams didnt #also also we should've immediately questioned tessa arriving in the same type of pod as the mds when they were revealed to not be sent by j #im running out of characters also the people who dont like when i use tags like this can bite me #murder drones #murder drones nori #artori? that sounds cool #ill probably just stick with nori though #i have so many solver heart refs now #art #episode 7 #murder drones episode 7 #murder drones episode 7 spoilers #using the same black for shadows as my lineart doesn't work when i have to draw thin things over it #murder drones spoilers

Hello I would like to request your favourite little freak(amphibian) for day 1432

day 1432

#amphibian #frog #toad #european common toad #i had to look up what 1432 means but i think its cute #i interpret this as just my favorite amphibian which is the common toad #i think you can tell from my art that its one of the amphibians i instinctually go for when i have no specific species to draw #i know its a boring answer but its a good frog. plain and simple #and its the one i've actually interracted with the most irl :) #and more specifically we had a toad that lived in the drain in the cellar in a previous house #its where we had all the laundry stuff. so we called him laundry frog. he is like the patron saint of laundry. to me #laundry frog specifically is my favorite little freak #laundry frog #oops i think i forgot to save the alt text #it should be fixed now but i have no idea how that works in relobgs

One day I'm gonna make a big rant post about Jamie being Not Sexist cos I keep seeing people comment on him being sexist and NO he's NOT

Thinking specifically of that bit in War Games where Zoe's like "this guy has some strong views about women's place" and Jamie's like "oh he sounds like a nice guy ^_~" and then like TWO MINUTES LATER is supporting Zoes right to have her opinion heard like duuuude hes TEASING

#wren rambles #doctor who #classic doctor who #jamie mccrimmon #Yeah he has 18th century values and instinctually wants to protect women #but thats not inherantly sexist #and hes ALSO a little troll who likes teasing Zoe #and if you take THOSE comments at surface level theres a couple of comments about men being better than women #but again. he is a TROLL he knows exactly what its doing and is poking zoes buttons #when it actially matters he supports the women around him so fiercely!!! #anyway justice for my boy just cos hes from the past doesnt mean hes sexist aaaah

Genuinely I love Julian's route in The Arcana so much. The potential of it, this inherent pull towards someone and you don't understand why -- he's admitted guilt to murder yet you can't help but feel this strange insistence that he's innocent. You don't know how, but your body, mind, & soul are screaming at you that this man that you have never met before is good, he's not what others say he is, he's not what he himself says he is; and then you learn that he doesn't even remember what happened, he just assumes he's the guilty party because he wouldn't be able to live with himself if he was. Why else would he forget unless it was an unbearable guilt he couldn't bear the weight of?

And, on top of it all, he has this same strange familiarity with you. How does he feel when he sees you in the shop and his heart stutters? When suddenly his aimless searching for something feels resolved, when he looks at you and everything feels right? He doesn't know you and yet his body remembers.

The mutual amnesia of people who used to be extremely close. He sees you for what he thinks is the first time ever, but his body is telling him no, we know them, we miss their touch. And you, the apprentice, slowly realizing you're feeling the same things? You immediately trust him because, before you forgot, he was your partner. Your mentor. Somebody you were so incredibly, incredibly close to, but you died and he blamed himself and everything crumpled and he made himself forget so it could never happen again and then --

There you are. And neither of you remember, but at the same time, some part of you does. The muscle memory never left. He touches you so casually, pats your arms and grabs your hand and leads you around the alleys as if it's second nature because it is. He dreams of your face and his torment and of losing you, and doesn't realize that it was real, and that his body itches to hold you because that part of him can't bear to lose you again.

I am obsessed with it. How many little tells are there, really, that the two of you share and hint at it being an old habit from times forgotten? How many little touches used to be daily routines? How many flutters of visions aren't just passing thoughts and wishes, but memories?

You think of how hard it would be to kiss Julian with a plague mask on, and his response is "Imagine trying with two of them," because he wanted to kiss you when you were his apprentice, when you were both desperate and tired and aching and tortured by the plague with only each other's company as a comfort. Maybe that's why you had the thought of kissing him in the first place, too -- but neither of you know why the subject was brought up, neither remember, yet some parts of you do.

Ugh. I love it. And when Julian finally does regain his memories? And he realizes you're real and you're here and you've been here, and he has been able to touch you and hold you this whole time, but now he can truly appreciate it, but he's also horrified with the weight of losing you all over again. Oh my God. It's so good. The potential underlying thoughts and emotions are so good.

#im rambling #im just obsessed with past lovers who have mutual amnesia #but they both feel this weird sense of /rightness/ when they find each other again #and everything starts moving so quickly and its too quick to be comfortable yet it is more than comfortable #its natural its instinctual because you both fit #youve always fit you just dont remember #the tragedy the beauty the intimacy #the love shared inherently between people who cant remember why #but their bodies know they miss each other #and touching one another comes as easy as breathing even when everything around them is telling them no this is dangerous this is not sane #he is a murderer he is a terrible person he will hurt you #but your body says /no/ #because its whispering /i know him/ #grabs my heart and sobs into the pavement #im so sorry im rambling so much i just. its so good. i wish we had more books like this #not the one sided amnesia trope but the TWO sided amnesia #you dont remember what happened you dont remember who you used to be but your body is screaming /its them its them its them/ #sigh #julian #julian devorak #the arcana #the apprentice #arcana #arcana apprentice #spoilers #julian spoilers #Julian route spoilers #ilya #ilya devorak #Wolfy speaks

Hatake Clan Crack AU

All the clans have some bullshit going on right? Well I had the absolutely hilarious thought that for the Hatake it is foundlings.

Essentially, the Hatake bloodline is a myth. Every member of the family is dropped off in the night by some family spirit or something. All the children have the silver hair, a symbol of their acceptance into the Hatake clan by the ancestors, and their chakra goes white when they are accepted bt the living.

This child delivery happens to every Hatake when they reach an age and time where they are ready to support a child. And it'll just keep happening. There is no stopping it.

So. Kakashi retires from being Hokage and a baby shows up on his door step. Ok. Cool. Um... guess it'll go to the orphanage... But the silver hair... Its all very confusing for him because there is actually no way it is his but it sure looks like it.

The next day it is back on his doorstep. He is *very* concerned now. He tries to put the kid in the orphanage like 2 more times before giving in.

A month later another kid shows up. This repeats until it stops being funny or Kakashi just straight up takes over the orphanage. The Hatake Clan is suddenly the biggest in the village except all but one of its members are under age 5.

#naruto #hatake kakashi #funny #hatake clan #crack au #crack idea #but all the funny ways this could play out are great #imagine anbu watching kakashi's front step trying to catch this person leaving babies only to have the kid show up inside the house somewhe #kakashi moving houses desperately the avoid any more children #he finally gives in and suddenly every kid is leaking white chakra all over the place #he just straight up passes out for an hour after that #i'm not saying all of them are genius kids #but they are all instinctually aware of how to use their chakra #kakashi is actually remembering baby team 7 fondly by this point #adult team 7 is all over the board in reaction to this #god its just so good but such utter bullshit

why do some penguins break away from the flock and run full tilt towards the middle of the arctic to their death. why is that a recorded phenomenon. what causes that instinct. what is the use of that instinct.

#that shit is CRAZY to me #call of the void? instinctual response to illness? terrifying wiring fuckup in their little pea brains? is there a fault in their #internal compass that makes them think they're headed towards the water? what is up with that. genuinely scary to me. how and why. #its so scary?? what kind of switch goes off in their brains?? why?? #its the sudden total loss of self preservation. breaking from the flock and the water/food. if theyre brought back they just try again? wha

[sharkneto]

Playing around with the idea of making an audio for one of my fics so I can relearn what I sound like with my lower voice - that a thing people would be interested in me sharing if I did it? Requests for which fic I do, if so (limiting to the one shots, I'm not committing to the entirety of HIT lol)?

#I don't know what my voice sounds like instinctually anymore and i think its throwing me off #so i'm hoping this is a thing that maybe helps with that and is also fun #just gotta refamiliarize myself with the t-enhanced version of me #but ye i think this could be a fun project #and if it doesn't sound like garbage would be fun to share #eh and maybe fun to share even if it does sound like garbage #anyway i never do requests for fics really so this is your chance to influence if youd like #ficblogging #sort of

I lose a year off my life everytime someone sees my drawing of Purple Guy Cat and goes "haha I thought this was Catnap".

#ramblings #so far we're at two. but im mad that i was right abt this happening at all #I SAY THIS IN A LIGHTHEARTED WAY i dont hate u if thats ur instant reaction. its just maddening cuz i like drawing characters #as cats and i really like drawing william as the purple guy sprite as opposed to like. well ig the only canon visual depiction i #actually like is the movie william LOL #MY instinctual reaction to seeing catnap is always gonna be `oh hey thats the purple guy bootleg`

things i like abt the german language as someone trying to learn german

-words are pronounced exactly the way theyre spelled

-english is germanic, so many words are similar enough that u can easily figure out the meaning jst by looking at the word (Milch=Milk, Buch=Book, Bruder=Brother, Schwester=Sister, etc etc)

-other words are just word+word and german is so Literal with naming shit so if u know some words its easy to kinda figure out what smthng means (Handschuhe = literally, “Hand Shoes” = Gloves)

-vocabulary is So Easy to remember bc of these above 3 points like frfr

things i hate abt the german language as someone trying to learn german

-GENDERED NOUNS can die (DER DIE DAS)

-DECLENSIONS are AAAA (DEN DEM DES)

-CONJUGATIONS as well are horrible (especially PAST TENSE VERBS and literally every conjugation of the verb WERDEN) (its so HARD to remember and understand)

-PLURAL VERSIONS of nouns are so DUMB (it makes NO SENSE)

#ok tbh i understand declensions in Theory but im so bad at remembering the gender of nouns and also sometimes i just dont knowww #like especially genitive case makes NOOOOOOO sense to ME im so stupid!!!!! #I GET NOMINATIV AND AKKUSATIV BUT GWAAUURGH #if u ask me why its Eines Tages then erm i cant tell u. ive tried to read theory and i Still Dont Get DES. and GENITIVE. #like i think instinctually i know WHEN to use it Welches Eines Dieses…. #but if u asked my Why its DES and not like just DER or DAS like i literally dont know i cant explain man #but uh other than that uhhhmmm. hmm. i think i just need to be better at rmbring gender for nouns… im so Bad…. TT #it’d help my declensions thing a lot of i jst rmbrd #Past tense conjugations r so fucked up tho i alwahs just forget tbh fhdkdd #Same with WERDEN I HATE WERDEN WÜRDEN WIRST WIRD DIEEEEEEE #Worst Verb Ever… #but past tense is Fucked i always say smthng like ich habe duschen …. NO U MORON… ITS GEDUSCHT!!!! #or ich habe Pizza essen… IDIOT!!! ITS GEGESSEN!!!!! #ok im just complaining in the tags german is actually very fun to learn #language #languageblr #german #.txt

thinking about "what have you got in your fucking hand?" "i dunno, fucking, love?" again

#theres just something about that interaction that always sits in my head?????? #especially with the context of s4 #like.........its sort of romans instinctual urge for power which is why him and the sibs go to stop this deal #but then it's his childlike love and overall FEAR of his father and it feels like he doesnt know what to do??? #and its also his love for his siblings who really are his only friends in the end. #and maybe thats something that also informs his decision i feel like he feels like he has to choose between his siblings and father a little #but he doesnt know how to stand up to his dad because he has never done that #i feel like he just fears logan so much. and maybe he's afraid of being hit #which is why his hands are out #but he also loves him #and the juxtaposition of that drives him insane #idk. idk what im saying. #that interaction is just....very representative of their relationship #succession #roman roy #logan roy

people will go all "just be yourself and love yourself! :)" and then go "if you don't act the way i want, you gotta reprogram your entire way of thinking then reach into the very core of who you are and what makes you you, discard it, and replace it with this better, friendlier, more empathetic version that's coincidentally far more convenient for me to deal with than any other possible compromise we can make that you can do for me but doesn't stretch your mind to nothing but thin bands of what you'd consider 'You' :))))))"

#mine.txt #just thinking about all those 'think positively!' and 'romanticize your life!' posts #like on one hand i can see their merit cause self-hatred though instinctual is ultimately detrimental to your mental health #but on the other hand...some of them (a lot of them) are really just unashamedly asking other people to completely change themselves huh #all in the guise of ''positive thinking'' ''self-love'' and ''betterment'' no less #i suppose i shouldnt be surprised considering most people can barely grasp the concept of someone who Genuinely has muted emotions #as a natural state instead of a depressive symptom #not to mention the human quality of escalating things #so ofc tumblr which seems to currently be in its mental health recovery phase would naturally lean in so hard towards ''radical happiness'' #but man sometimes i really do just wanna shake the person from behind the screen and say #'no! dont you understand! this is just how i am! stop implying that everybody who doesnt feel joy at simply waking up is a miserable hag!' #sometimes they dont even imply it they just straight up say it 💀 #im honestly fine (as in idc) with seeing them but they remind me so much of those toxic positivity bitches that sell you random hoaxes #and tell you that youre ''ruining their vibes'' when youre not just beaming like the sun every waking second #well idc most of the time that is #sometimes they just trigger my szpd (and my dpd weirdly enough) #with the szpd obviously i dont like being told what to do and what to feel and having some rando assume things about me #but with the dpd its like #oh i must be doing something wrong ofc this stranger on the internet knows more about emotions and feelings than me #cause im a dumbass who doesnt Feel things therefore i must do what they say even to my own detriment #this mainly applies to those guilt-trippy ones so ive learned to steer clear of them #possibly even block the op

it could’ve been you by hannah grae is such a good song for canon klaine breakups as well as au ones like it just embodies the resentment and mistakes and disappointment so well

#glee #klaine #blaine anderson #kurt hummel #i feel like every time i tag klaine in my posts its always to speak about some sad song that i think fits them #which like makes sense but also like i feel bad because i am incapable of viewing them in a good light #at least not instinctually so every thought of mine related to them is just upsetting because i don’t spend my time exploring their #relationship and its ups and downs #just the downs unfortunately

[sophfandoms53]

The smirk Cory has on his face any time someone calls him out in an attempt to jeopardize his game, he is winning the idgaf war😭

#he just has a massive grin and ITS SO FUNNY #idek if its cockiness #like genuinely it looks instinctual #when you’re a superfan and ppl call you out for being good at the game LMAOO #and he respected it too #he loved how felicia gave that speech #bb25

Context: bdubs might be interested in checking out Tumblr and some fan got very, VERY aggressive about it while others are chill or a middle ground

Tbh I think he should, he fully integrated into hermittwt in like a day its time for him to conquer the next step

#vio.ask #pretty sure he was using tone indicators and doing the selfie day lmaooo hes good #but idk maybe its bc like most of the ccs i watch are on/lurk on tumblr but its like. theyre chill yunno #i think its just a matter of refiguring out the dynamics bt the cc and the blr #and theres always the blcok button! #and like. i get the instinctual panic whenever a cc mentions/pokes fun at tumblr bc im also so used to us being the butt of the joke always #but thats also on me yunno! gotta train that conditioning out #especially if a cc joins tumblr publically and voluntarily theres a good chance they think we're kinda neat! #also hermittwt already thinks hermitblr is cringe so not much left to lose there yunno

living like this is EXTREMELY sexy of him ngl. this set design deserves an award for completely understanding the character and for not being afraid to go All OUT. and i need to point out no other action movie guy could ever or will ever be able to carry this living space off without it looking like he's trying and failing at doing too much. but not maverick as played by tom cruise. with him and him alone does it look simply like getting a peek into the natural habitat of someone known for having jetfuel in their blood.

#jetfuel in his blood #jetfuel is his blood #top gun the movie and maverick the character were both part of pop culture in a huge way for 35 years before this sequel came out #and one thing they symbolise in popular memory is apparatus of locomotion by land air and sometimes sea that go very fast #and so does tom cruise #with any other action movie star this set would simply not mean anything to us the audience except that they were trying too hard #its only with tom cruise and this character in this sequel to this movie that a seet design like this actually holds #almost an emotional instinctual understanding for the audience #you look at the bigger pieces of this living space he's made for himself and you think of course he lives like this its maverick #you look at the smaller pieces and discover new depths new journeys hes been on for the 35 years since we last met him #this set is a perfect combination of tribute to the space this character has occupied in pop culture for 35 years #and an insight on the journey he's on in this movie #you're not even thinking they designed his home like this because he's a cool action hero in a cool action movie #even though both are true #but mostly it just makes sense like getting the reveal of the natural habitat of a legendary pokemon would #also masterful choices were made to portray the character in the way cruise did in this sequel #the wry tired genuine earnestness and compassion that transform the actiony trappings of the genre the character is in #from just shallow fun to a very warm emotionally resonant cultural phenomenon of a movie #with him as its steel spine #but that's a whole other post
