I didn’t want to explain. I didn’t want to say that grief was like a recurring injury that erupted instinctively. People who’d never grieved didn’t know.

NOBODY is allowed to be happy and EVERYONE is doomed

#alnst #alien stage #ivantill #mizisua #this is also random but i associate mizisua with water and ivantill with fire. #and ivantill is fire in the way of meteors and the burn of fists against skin #the blazing star of a rebellious boy and the glow that reflects off of mesmerized black eyes #the red pupil within an expanse of black. light brought to a black hole. reverse supernova. something out of nothing #mizisua is water in the way mizi speaks of the ocean. the bubbly quality of her voice #the wide expanse of blue that stretches before them as sua sings and mizi watches from afar #the cold waters that they played in as children #the natural calming and easy flow of currents #the bright sky above them that paints the waters blue and by extension their memories as well #just like the blue stage lights that painted sua before her death #the flowing of tears onto her lifeless body #memories of bright blue stained with red #(i also associate mizi with water and jellyfish in general lol) #sorry that shit was so random

Definitely not me finding random nightgown on pinterest and making a whole au just because of it haha nooo why would you think that?

Anyway, please listen to "I Wanted to Leave" by Syml while looking at this, it really adds a lot to the experience and in this essay I will-

#Sebastian you better take great care about my bright little star till the day he burns out #or I'll never draw you again you hear me???? #btw don't mind pictures' order it's not a comic or anything like that #just my brain rotting itself out #I'm crazy alright #but I'm free. #sorry for absence of coherent thoughts #It will happen again #kuroshitsuji #black butler #ciel phantomhive #sebastian michaelis #sebaciel #well it's 100% sebaciel for me but you can tag as whatewer you feel like #be crazy and free too #my art

Someone was sobbing. After a moment, Anakin realized Oh. That's me. And then his knees were buckling and he was heading for the ground. Obi-Wan caught him. "It's all right. I've got you." -K. Miller

#I haven't read the Clone Wars Gambit - Siege but this quote fits so nicely. My thanks to Magnusbae for helping me to pick the perfect quote. #This background gave me so much grief. -laughs- I painted Obi-Wan and Anakin in a day and then paused for a whole week because I didn't kno #what the hell should I do about the background X'D. It went through so many filters and gradient map changes before I finally settled on th #s. -shudders at the memory of eyes getting burned by bright colors- #mayhem art #obikin #obi wan kenobi #anakin skywalker #star wars #sw art #anakin skywalker fanart #obi wan kenobi fanart #obi wan and anakin

@apostisms  ✨  continued.

𝐀  𝐑𝐎𝐋𝐋  𝐎𝐅  𝐇𝐄𝐑  𝐄𝐘𝐄𝐒  follows  the  messages  she  receives  shortly  after  sending  her  own,  indicating  the  rockstar  awaited  the  contact  impatiently  —  or  so  she  thinks,  using  this  little  delusion  to  boost  her  ego.

it's  late;  sky  is  now  coated  in  indigo  paint,  city  lights  dulling  the  shine  of  glitter  splotches  on  its  canvas.  luxanna  sees  them  without  issue;  they  call  her  sometime,  and  she  responds  in  duty,  due  to  which  she  woke  up  right  before  the  concert.  somehow,  she  always  feels  sylas'  eyes  on  her  during  his  performances;  it's  like  he  seeks  her  and  sings  for  her  and  her  only  —  jinx  feeds  onto  that  silly  idea,  noticing  it  first,  and  then  reminding  about  it  each  time  they  see  the  rockband.

everytime  they're  in  town,  that  is.

because  for  some  reason,  the  lead  singer  offers  front  row  free tickets  as  long  as  she  wants  to  come.  and  luxanna  cannot  disappoint  her  friend.

with  another  glance  at  her  phone,  and  the  clock,  she  taps  responses  to  comments  she  never  dreamed  of  receiving,  and  she's  mad  at  herself  for  blushing  at  the  compliment.  a  well  known  musician  liking  her  bedroom  recordings,  taking  his  time  to  learn  them,  and  then  sharing  them  with  the  world.  technically,  she  could  sue  him.  truth  is,  she  likes  him.  and  she  loved  liked  the  way  he  sang  her  words  with  his  hoarse  voice  in  front  of  thousands  of  people.

-> [  Sylas  ]:  And  to  think  a  rockstar  like  you  would  care  this  much  to  appeal  to  a  simple  girl  like  me.  I'm  honored,  in  a  way. -> [  Sylas  ]:  Thank  you.  Writing  and  singing  is  my  way  to  unwind  and  relax.  I'm  glad  someone  with  such  a  musical  background  enjoys  it. -> [  Sylas  ]:  Just  in  case,  please  don't  share  my  instagram  with  anyone,  neither  me  as  the  author  of  the  song.  I  do  not  wish  to  be  perceived  by  your  fans. -> [  Sylas  ]:  No  offense.

now,  there's  a  pause  on  her  side  of  the  messaging  app,  as  lux  considers  accepting  the  invitation.  she  doesn't  drink.  she's  tired.  and  she  isn't  sure  about  spending  nighttime  one  on  one  with  sylas,  either  —  doesn't  believe  he  could  hurt  her,  but  there's  a  little  red  light  pulsing  slightly  in  the  back  of  her  head,  and  she's  learned  to  trust  her  intuition.  instead  on  declining  right  away,  she  decides  on  a  different  approach.

-> [  Sylas  ]:  Don't  you  have  an  after party  to  attend  to?

I just learned about stars in my physics class

There’s something so poetic about how the biggest stars burn out quicker. About how the fusion that keeps them alive, eventually makes them unstable.

In a last attempt to survive the constant push of gravity they form iron inside of their cores; this makes them unstable. Despite the futility of it all, as gravity eventually always wins, they try nonetheless.

Not only that but when they go supernova, they form a nebula. Even in spite of the constant battle that was their life, they left something in their wake. A place that forms new stars.

A legacy, if you will

the cycle will forever continue

#stars #space #poetry #space poetry #star poetry #dude it makes me so emotional #thinking about stars always #forever quite possibly #when you think about how humans have traces of stardust #in a lot of ways we’re all just little stars aren’t we? #we want to burn Bright and leave something behind

i know nobody is online to see it rn but GOD it feels so good to be in love again!!!!!!!!! i reached the tag limit on that last reblog of la la land, there's a tag limit of 30 and i originally wrote almost 60 and then i had to keep revising it over and over until i only had 30. i just kept talking abt how much i love sebastian!!! and that's!!! how i'm supposed to be!!!! it's such a huge goddamn relief to start self shipping again even if it's not with TF, i really hope i can come back to my robots one day, but god. god it's such a fucking relief to have seb and six and ken and barbie and harley etc etc etc etc the list hopefully will just keep growing. this love in my chest, this feeling of overwhelming love that makes me actually physically sigh because there's so much love in me... that's how i am supposed to be and i am so relieved to start feeling this way again. i was numb for so long. i'm so grateful for these characters.

#woof #pretty sure i spent at least 20 minutes typing those tags #and then after i finished i was like 'oh there i am' #there's that star in my heart! she's still burning bright after all! she's just hurting. but she isn't gone. maybe she never was #and maybe one day i can finally finally finally come back to TF #but for now. for now. i am holding ryan and margot's characters' hands. all of these characters all of these pretty ppl #and they are guiding me through hell and telling me things are gonna be ok #bc lord knows i tried to throw myself at ANYTHING and NOTHING would stick #i tried watching different movies/cartoons i never saw before. didnt feel loved #tried to watch old things i used to love like SBTM or MLP. didnt feel loved #maybe the trauma was too fresh for me to be able to focus on anything else #but barbie came at the PERFECT time. the STARS ALIGNED JUST RIGHT #and out of any character that could have saved me it was KEN? #its because he makes me laugh. barbie did help MONUMENTALLY with pink #im still struggling with pink sometimes but its definitely majorly improved #like if i look back on myself 2 months ago i COULD NOT look at pink without having a panic attack. insane #but now??? im going thru pink blogs and associating EVERYTHING with margot's barbie #and any time i feel tense i can easily ground myself bc i am associating it with my self ships #im using it in my art again and its such a relief #im not fully myself without starscream but hey. a part of me is here. a part of me is breathed back to life just a little bit #its as if ive been drowning for over a year and finally someone reached out their hands to save me #pull me to the surface and maybe im not on solid ground yet but the waves arent thrashing or pulling me down as much anymore

How’s this for a stress dream:

I was back working in an architectural office setting. However, we weren’t using computers, it was back to manual drafting on tables.

I had a project deadline approaching in the next 36 hours. I had yet to start drafting any of the plans. The project was for a 15-story mixed-used building with a below grade parking garage.

I was the only person available to work on this project.

Coffee and cocaine became my closest companions.

#this week #my life will: #a) shine like a bright star #b) burn out like an old rock star #c) turn to shit like that of the last czar #d) end up with me dying at the bar #e) 4 out of 5 #f) all of the above #place your bets

[fiction-quotes]

I shook my head. What do you know about love? I thought. But then I felt bad. M knew a lot about love, but a different kind of love. Oli-love. Not long ago, Marine had told me that she'd cried when her mother had explained that in the womb she and Oli had swum in two separate amniotic sacs, making them fraternal, not identical. “I'd always thought of us as conjoined somehow, not divided, even by a membrane.” Back then I hadn't understood M's grief. Instead, I'd thought of my own mother, carrying me, how warm and safe I must have been inside her belly, all tucked away. But now for some reason at the image of these two babies unable to touch, I blinked back tears.

Did you know that in addition to being the birth flower of March, several daffodils symbolises new beginnings and rebirth; but a single daffodil symbolises misfortune? I thought you might find this interesting...

Also known as an excuse to practice bright colors and weird angular shading!

@plushii-gutz : BEHOLD, HE

Version with blood under the cut bc I'm a lil edgy like that

No danganronpa jokes pls I went with pink bc it fit with the rest of the colors

#my singing monsters #msm #Fallen stars au #Fallen stars msm #Glaishur #Hazard Arts #Tw eyestrain #Tw bright colors #Fun fact: I went back and toned down the colors after I finished drawing this #I have an even brighter version but I'd rather not burn y'all's eyeballs out

I love fire elementals.... I love devils....I love fiery devils

#so many of my muses have some flame quality to them #like eden being fire proof #Malika literally the devil's son #so he's fire proof and his magic takes form as fire #ALUNDRA IS LITERALLY A FALLEN ANGEL THAT BURNS AS BRIGHT AS THE STARS

thinkign about polysho… and nene seeing emu rui and tsukasa as her sun moon and stars respectively but wondering where she fits into it.. and they say shes like the entire sky because shes able to keep them all together (and under control jwjsja) and without her they may not have ever gone anywhere :((((

#i say shit #pjsk #wonderlands x showtime #polysho #oough and theres also the potential of #the sun can sometimes be too bright #+ stars can burn out #+ dark side of the moon that nobody ever sees #sobbing
