Now the real question
Can tumblr have an AITA blog where people can submit their stories for judgement without the blog runner being outed as a collector of illegally acquired preserved skin grafts or something at the height of it’s popularity?

The Anya-Twilight interaction in the middle of this chapter is pretty interesting.
The Anya side of this interaction seems clear enough in that she's trying to obfuscate when asked about her exposure to classical language. The fact we don't see her face as she claims she doesn't remember makes me think she very possibly *does*, but doesn't want to talk about it. And, of course, as I've seen pointed out already, her face when she's first asked is very reminiscent of how she looks in the recent 'Ania' short chapter. She has thoughts/feelings about her past and they've clearly affected her, but they're not for the audience to see yet.
However, the Twilight side of this? I'm a bit stunned at how obviously he does not want to be asking this question of Anya. We know he's considered there's some reason in her past for her knowledge of classical language. We know he's a chronic overthinker. Even last chapter, he was thinking of this, but didn't ask. Anya getting second place though basically removes any plausible deniability. If he doesn't ask now, he's neglecting his duty. But still, he has to work up to it, almost leaves the room before he decides to broach the topic, and when he does, he *mumbles* it. Twilight doesn't really *act* with Anya when it's just them. His mumbling is not an act; it's reluctance.
His reluctance to ask the question of Anya is, in some ways, more egregious than how easily he drops the topic once Anya claims she doesn't remember. Not pushing her further and bringing the topic up later is a valid tactic (and likely one we may see), but we can see that he knows there's more to it. Unlike the audience, he can see her face, after all. And for now, he's indicated he won't push further despite that knowledge. By choosing to back off and patting Anya instead, he's (in a very low-key way admittedly) prioritising Anya over the mission.
It's just so neat how this one interaction showcases so much about the both of them. It hammers in Anya's trauma about her past, without spelling it out in words, but at the same time, it shows how Twilight's approach to fatherhood vs his mission are coming increasingly into conflict. We've had something similar on a larger scale with the recent Yuri-mole arc, with his role as Yor's spouse vs the mission, but it's still playing out on a smaller scale in scenes like this. And it's fascinating how the mission isn't always the clear-cut winner anymore. Sure, early on, we had Twilight sabotaging the Eden entry interview, but that was a moment of passion inspired by his whole "not wanting children to cry" deal. In other words, fuelled by some of his own trauma. In the recent chapters though, he's had time to think and justify before he acts. But the pendulum is still swinging towards his family when given the chance.

🌴🎄 In a Disney Christmas book, there is a story in which Tarzan, Jane, and Professor Porter decide to celebrate Christmas in a new way. Their efforts result in many animals gathering together peacefully by a makeshift Christmas tree put together by Tarzan and the Porters. Earlier today, I drew Young Tarzan wearing a Santa Claus hat. I based the drawing on a drawing done by Disney animator John Ripa. The addition of the Santa hat was my idea. I had done a similar drawing in January of 2021. 🐾🦍

Um…hello! Your art is like a HUGE inspiration to me how you draw everyone is so unique, I love it! So I just wanted to ask what inspired you and your art to what it is today?
(hopefully I explained that correctly ;w;)
oh my gosh, thank you! :D :D :D I've been feeling pretty down about my art lately, so this was a super nice message to wake up to! one of the easiest traps to fall into is forgetting that other people are seeing your art without all the baggage and hangups that your brain has given it, and sometimes...they might actually like it? hmm. 🤔 (seriously though, that really is incredible to hear, thank you! 💕)
inspiration is really really hard to put into words. so I apologize if none of this makes sense! :') a lot of it comes from looking at things I like, trying to break down what it is that I like about them, and smooshing all those pieces together into some kind of amalgamated homunculus. I'll see something that uses a lot of straights vs curves, go "ooh", and then just start throwing those in there until it is fully absorbed into the gelatinous mess that is Developing An Artstyle. or I'll see some pretty soft-style shading, go "ooh", and then decide I'm not meshing with it and try something else. just, like, being open and trying different things and seeing what sticks, I guess!
overall, I would say I was mostly shaped by the Western media landscape of the early 2000s, when anime was becoming more mainstream and starting to show influence on Western cartoons; I think particular works that influenced me were Sailor Moon, Utena, the works of Takahashi Rumiko, Samurai Jack, Batman Beyond, and Bone. (there's also the French movie Princes et Princesses -- which is itself a homage to The Adventures of Prince Achmed -- which...yeah, you can basically take one look at it and see the effect it had on me.) and there are probably a lot of other things that I didn't consciously realize!
on a more philosophical level, one of my teachers once said to me that "the art that you like to look at isn't necessarily the art that you should be doing". which is something I try to hold onto! I had been trying really hard at the time to be, like, a more realistic traditional-style painter, and was getting really frustrated because that kind of art isn't fun for me to do. it wasn't until I gave myself permission to actually try out different things and not lock myself into what I thought was the kind of art I should be doing, that I realized I actually just like drawing little dudes making weird faces at each other! (I definitely still have some hangups about this, but I am getting better at it! ...I hope!)

If the Lazarus pits can somewhat make someone a half baked core, wouldn’t Damian technically be older then Jason by ghost seniority and stuff? Not by much but it’s like twins fighting for eldest sibling rights (“I’m the eldest” = “By ghost rule I’m older since physical ages don’t count”) (“Only by a minute!” = “That’s such bullshit! I was born years before you were even a thought!”)

"The outer reaches of space remain unexplored by humankind to this day, but its greed is relentless. We grasp and yearn and hunger for knowledge— answers to questions we cry out into the endless void expecting to understand, expecting the stars to respond. The stars will not, but one day something else will— and we will not like what it has to say." — Rome Solomon, Beyond the Exosphere (1965)

At the Akademiya
Cyno: You know, it’s called fasting and lasts from sunrise to sunset... Imagine if it’s called slowing instead.
(beat)
Nahida: Oh! Oh, I see! (laughs) The joke plays with fast meaning “taking place at high speed or within a short time”, and fasting meaning “to abstain from food”. That’s fun!
Alhaitham: ...the content of the joke itself is interesting and not one I commonly hear, but the delivery could use some work.
Cyno: It’s a work in progress. But it is funny?
Nahida: Yes, absolutely!
Alhaitham: That’s a subjective question. (pause) And I’d answer yes.
.
Later, at Gandharva
Cyno: We should all be thankful that it’s called fasting and lasts from sunrise to sunset. If it’s caled slowing, who knows how long it’d take.
(beat)
Kaveh: (slams head onto the table with a groan)
Collei: (awkward laugh)
Tighnari: (sighs) ...you’re not invited to the next iftar.
