the thing that mightve actually fucked me up the most while watching all of us strangers was not the (way too relatable) parental issues or even that last devastating plot twist but its raw depiction of pure affection and tenderness. arguably THE main theme of this movie is queer loneliness (and how it can quite literally kill you) and i know that i am definitely not alone in feeling alone but... im just scared of living most of my life without ever feeling reciprocated love and passion. missing out on those joyful young experiences of love, exploration and sexuality that all my friends get to enjoy. im afraid of going through each day without ever experiencing a gentle touch of someone who truly sees something pure and beautiful in me somehow. without having someone to take care of me, have a genuine connection with me, sharing a vulnerability that we've never shown to anyone ever before. i think i see so much of myself in adam because i too spend my day dreaming about life getting better, i imagine it each night before i to to bed, constantly waiting for SOMETHING to happen, ANYTHING to make me feel less empty and yet nothing ever changes.

i could write forever about all of the things i could never put into words. i could write forever about the things i'll never know how to articulate. like the way the house made me feel or the way the living room light felt on my skin. i could write forever about how girls lived here. about how their shampoo smelled. about how their laughs sounded echoing through the hall and up the stairs. i could write forever about the closeness. about the way it felt to share a space. about girlhood. i could write forever about this little family that i'll never be able to describe. i can only feel it, but i could write forever about it.

it has come to my attention that i have been really shitty the last few months about my stance on incest. i am so sorry to anyone I might have offended or made uncomfortable. I was ignorant about the examples of incest in the real world and the harm it can have on people, basing my real opinions on a hypothetical non-entity, and I apologize for any harm I may have caused by doing so. I have never nor will I ever condone any form of abuse, and if anything I said has ever implied that I do I am sorry to have said so

is it weird that i dont wanna change my pfp—even though ive had countless moments where ive seen something, thought to myself "this would make an amazing pfp" or "i really wanna make this my pfp" and then like seconds later lose the desire as i remember my relationship to my pfp and how everything about my online persona from the past 5 years would change—and im okay with that?

So hear me out: How about Sanji and his siblings working in a "Sora, Warrior of the sea" cafe? The design of their uniforms could be based on the raidsuits. For example: Sanji's clothes could be black and red with golden and white ornaments.
Law would definitely be a regular customer there. (Also so he could see the blonde waiter).

just realized that the vulcan's "live long and prosper" is basically rest in peace but for the living and I actually think that's really cool. we need more of that sentiment, I think. especially in english which inexplicably doesn't really have natural phrases for it, at least not ones commonly in use. we talk about "have a good day" or "have a blessed day" but that's just not the same as saying something like, "have a blessed life."

dealing with a few things so i’ll probably duck my head out for a little while. but on a more positive note... i want to talk about the community for a little bit.
i just wanted to draw attention to how lovely this rpc is. i’ve seen a lot of positivity today, whether it be through the dash meme in the morning, or others comforting each other since it seems like monday has been hitting a lot of us hard. it’s nice to know that through this hobby of writing silly little guys, we’ve all managed to forge new and bright friendships, make memorable stories together, and have been able to bring good memories forth full of laughter and warmth to each others lives.
this community is chock full of so many kind-hearted folks, from old to new, and i really just want to shine some light on that and express how thankful i am to be part of a community like this one. seeing people care for one another this way, through means big and small. showing genuine compassion and excitement and such an eagerness to uplift one another is just very heartwarming to see firsthand, i think. it may just be writing to the outside looking in, but it always makes me smile knowing that we can all connect with each-other like that; it’s nice to know that where times have gotten rough, we all have each other’s backs, and we’re right by each other’s sides for all the good days to come.
i’m not really sure if i’m getting all my feelings out eloquently, but i think the best way to describe it is just that it’s... it’s very nice, you know? there’s something so enriching to the heart about seeing people just take care of one another and lean on each other and hype each other up.
this probably reads as a little messy and a little silly, and many parts corny, but i think as someone who has never really experienced a tightly-knit and caring community this way, it’s just nice to see others look out for one another. i’m very glad for the wonderful friends i have made, and for the lovely people who i have met through this silly ol’ writing hobby.
you’re all gems, and i hope to experience even more brighter days with you folks! here’s to tomorrow being much better for all of us, and that june rings us all in with positive news and good feelings, yeah?

The forest may remember, but what happened in Tatarasuna, only him remembers
Not a fic, just shower thoughts
This may sound like it came from a hermit on top of mountain but my 1 brain cell that doesn’t how how grammar works decided to explore the universe while I’m taking a shower lol
Anyway…
It’s kind of sad to think how memories of what happened in the past were altered to fit the narrative that Scara didn’t exist.
No, this isn’t a rant about he shouldn’t have been erased from history and all that debate, but just a personal and messy thought of how insignificant we are in terms of viewing the world and history as a whole and how what makes memories precious (in Scara’s case) is not because of the people themselves, but in the sense that if things have changed, only you will be able to remember them.
So yeah I’m a big fan of 4dango’s work. I love how Dango made a whole backstory of how Kabukimono might had lived with the people of Tatarasuna (plus breaking my heart over and over again with feels) and I just had this thought that he might have a lot of fond memories with Niwa and the others since he’s much more friendlier at that time, but all of those memories, those snippets of stories in time, have all been deleted and replaced.
And somehow it must have felt terrible because Wanderer, who recovered all his memories, was the only one who remembered that they happened.
Not to mention that he was replaced. Yes, while I do know that the exact events (like someone joining the Tatarasuna crew) which he remembers might not have happened at all because the flow of history’s narrative changed, but it’s heartbreaking to think that your spot on those people’s side has been taken by someone else. That somebody else laughed with the people who cherished him and he cherished in return, that another person did sword dancing and smithing with Niwa, that the boy he took in as his family called another person his brother.
It has made me realize how insignificant (not in a too demeaning way) we are when we view the world as a whole. That we can be replaced or forgotten in just a Thanos style snap of a finger if something like Irminsul existed irl. How we all exist like meager small stars shining along with thousands of others in a vast universe, like if one of them disappeared, no one will notice, or another star will take its place, and the sky—the world will go on as if nothing happened.
Another thing is that people say that what makes memories precious are the people who have been there during its creation. And while this is true, in Wanderer’s case, when all the people in your fond memories have all died, when those moments have been altered to fit another narrative in history where you didn’t exist, what makes it special is that only he has lived through it and remembered it. Only he remembered the way Niwa taught a clueless puppet how to make a sword, only he remembered an abandoned creation of the electro archon collecting lavender melons just to care for a sick child who always smiled at him with a toothy grin. It was a treasure meant only for him.
That’s all 🙇♀️

i had an idea that came from a fic i was reading!
everyone interprets an au differently, even if they try to get as close to canon as possible. so, i like to think that every interpretation exists at the same time!
that way, while they may not actually be canon, they're canon in the eyes of the person interpreting them! each character and au, when we interpret them, ends up being something different from the original. only some things are different, but the premise of it all is the same
so long as you respect other people's interpretations, i don't think there's anything wrong with it. it leaves room to be creative, and to imagine a much bigger multiverse!
this is just how i see it tho- i dunno how anyone else sees it
NO FR THATS LITR THE ENTIRE CONCEPT OF FANDOMS, just go wild dude!! URE HERE TO HAVE FUN!
Ofc altho some stuff is canon to u cuz thats how u interpret them, it will never be the same as what the Creator of said canon content has in mind (in the case of Undertale, thatd be Toby Fox), cuz- theyre the creator KJDNMASDK AND EVEryone thinks differently!
But it def shouldnt stop u from having ur own visions about smtng! Ure free to create what u want, and thats one of the wonders of a fandom!
Many minds thinking differently always provide more content for you to enjoy, despite not being canon, but its exactly what makes ur stay in a media more enjoyable! Cuz u just have SO MUCH to explore!!
So rlly, thats why I think its extremely offensive and apathetic of someone to want to control other ppl's creativity, cuz it litr means ure trying to stop em from acting different than u (which is fcking Impossible) and enjoying themselves at their own manner.
AND THIS IS EXACTLY ONE OF THE MANY REASONS WHY so many ppl are anxious and insecure about sharing their ideas!! Therefore not allowing themselves to have fun, so u can see how harmful this actually is

it’s honestly wild to think about how having a little fake person to project onto makes such a huge difference with my mental health
like. fucking wild that this idiot (and being able to project my issues and emotions onto her) has probably genuinely saved my life

i was discussing fav kdramas w a friend and have just been thinking abt parallels between 2521 and Our Beloved Summer. it’s been a bit since i’ve watched both dramas tho so some of this commentary may be a bit off
both dramas show the characters as adults in the present day w flashbacks to them as students. with this, they also center around the maturing of the characters and come with a sense of nostalgia (2521 especially). furthermore, both heedo and yeonsoo are shown to be loners as students—heedo bc of her fencing and yeonsoo bc of her financial situation.
but the endings of the dramas differ drastically. in 2521, while heedo does find a close group of friends, at the end of the drama she’s isolated again, and at one point with minchae she seems to have forgotten some of her experiences with them (when she didn’t remember the beach trip they took). this differs from yeonsoo, who as an adult at the start of the drama only has one friend in sol yi yet at the end reconnects with ung and jiung. while the friendship between the three of them doesn’t seem to be as close as the one depicted in 2521, there is still a sense of closeness and community there.
i think something that really crystallizes this difference between the dramas come from some of the last lines in each. in 2521, when adult heedo is reflecting on the past, her last words are “i had thought love and friendship were mine to have for a brief moment. looking back, every day was a practice. the moments when i dared to say everything would last forever. i loved living in that illusion. right, there was still one thing we could have. that summer was ours to keep.”
in our beloved summer, choi ung says, “everyone has unforgettable memories from a certain year of their life. they cherish those memories so much that it lasts a lifetime. and our year hasn’t ended yet.”
with both of these you can see that 2521 approaches relationships as temporary, but life-altering in some circumstances (according to that last scene between heedo and yijin but there are some conflicting messages they’re giving there). overall the show accepts these relationships as temporary and almost acts as if the characters themselves have no agency to change the fact that they’re drifting apart (as shown w heedo and yijin’s long distance relationship)
but yeonsoo and ung also have a long distance relationship for some time, and although the framing of these is different in the dramas, w that section of the relationship being a central point for 2521 and being glossed over in our beloved summer, in our beloved summer i think the characters show more agency over their relationship and trying to take advantage of the fact that they’ve been given a second chance. furthermore, it seems in 2521 that summer has been preserved in memory, made all the more nostalgic film given that the friends don’t talk to one another anymore whereas in our beloved summer the friendships/relationship shown in the last is not as idealized and are seen as a more continuous thing that changes and alters as the characters grow.
i don’t really know where i’m going with this but i think the main point i had at the start of this is that 2521 really plays into the fear so many young adults have of growing up into adults who are isolated, which honestly seems to be a reality for so many ppl today. on the other hand, our beloved summer offers a more hopeful tone of being more fulfilled as an adult (as both choi ung and kook yeonsoo seem fulfilled both socially and career-wise by the end of the series). but also looking at the differences in how these characters view relationships we can see and take away that fact that no matter our stage in life relationships do take effort and that it’s worth it to put in that effort, even if adult relationships require more of it.
