#art #resident evil 8 #resident evil #re8 #resident evil village #i think they should've done a face reveal for Ethan in the dlc btw #i know we already know what his face looks like but i feel like story wise it would've made sense for him to be able to show his face #in the mold dimension. like. he's already dead. his things over #he has sparkle powers now he's not fucked up anymore #kind of #anyway #ethan winters #rose winters #the dlc felt a bit short but like. its a dlc. so is to be expected #i wish we got more rose content tho. i hope we do get more rose content #im excited for whatever comes next either way though #i like that they let rose be a little gross and scary like her dad. they're both sooo stupid too <3 #i also LOVE that Ethan has sparkle powers in the afterlife.or well. mold. memory. whatever #I'm just imagining all the lords in the mold being like. damn well i guess this isn't so bad. then miranda shows up #and heisenburg is like fuck! and then Ethan shows up and everyone is like fuck!!#like what do they do? kill eachother again? they're already dead #i guess miranda like. killed all the other lords kinda and used them to make the evil duke?? unless i completely misread her notes #I'm gonna go check. then I'm gonna stop typing whole paragraphs in the tags. see ya #art of duck

By the time Winter came, each day was starting to bleed into the next. As they got closer to the holidays, Dawn was putting together multiple events and working late into the night.

Often, she’d crawl into bed long after Phoenix had fallen asleep.

Due to her late nights, she’d start her mornings later, and Phoenix would be up early, doing his best to get ready quietly so as not to wake her.

For him, work had become so busy that he rarely got a day off.

However, they both finally got a break over Winterfest. It felt like it had been months since getting to spend a day together.

And with no obligations aside from their annual dinner at Julian’s, they spent every possible minute in bed, knowing they'd be back to their busy schedules the next day.

don't you love when you're like, okay now I'm going to leave this sorrow in the old year so I don't turn into a crotchety bitter person over it, and then you walk on feeling all refreshed and bright no longer carrying it on your shoulders, but then the sorrow wanders after you like a child who was lost in the supermarket weeping its eyes out and it says to you where did you GO I was lost! I was lost and I missed you!!! and you can only sigh and take it by its hand and say to it very well. here's your seat. I'm sorry I left you behind, I promise it was with the best of intentions, but I want to do my best by you, so let's sit together and try to figure out what you're saying to me.

#thinking out loud #i'm truly like. ok i'm mostly fine i'm a little bit going through it because it's harshest month of winter and it's always weird this month #but i just think it's so funny that i have to be like OH you don't suddenly stop....hurting over something because you decided to!#if you were missing someone who was important to you two months ago by golly you probably still will two months from then!!#weird how that be! anyway #it's funny to me because it's like the opposite of object impermanence #i used to think i was all heart no head and that there's a part of me that went hard in the opposite direction to counteract that #but i am still as much as heart as i ever was except now i have my logical side going yip yip girl we gotta go!!! let's go!!!#and the heart is like holding up a shakey hand going oh lads you go on without me...i just need to catch my breath for like....15 years #anyway anyway. the narrative is indeed kind but that doesn't mean that it doesn't sting sometimes #but! we can do the best that we can and take our troubles by their hands and learn what we can from them and it will all be okay in the end #(i hope this post isn't too complainy or miserable. i may take it down later but i feel the need to say it somewhere.)#regardless of that. happy Friday my friends I love you all dearly bless you for being near me <3 <3

The type of Christian who asks atheists how they don't like, murder people on the reg are so funny to me because they seem to think their religion makes them the Peak of Morality when statements like "if you don't believe in God how comes you don't do X thing" all but outright state they have no idea why shit like murder and rape is bad except that God doesn't like it lmao. Like way to admit you have no intrinsic sense of morality and need to be afraid of a higher power to be a decent person, but I promise if you're not a piece of shit it's actually very natural not to want to do heinous evil shit all the time potential punishment from a higher power or not 🤷🏻‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️

#winters ramblings #seriously its SO funny when that happens because every time its like ??? the FUCK kind of thoughts do you have #to ask HOW i resist doing evil shit all the time because i dont fear god because i dont believe in God??#what kind of fucked up person do you haveto be to only resist killing people because of fear of a higher power??#these are people to avoid because typically they also come with the issue of using their religion to make any action they want #perfectly Good and Moral because GOD said it its in the BIBLE whether thats true or not and like bible or no #if you have no intrinsic sense of morality i dont want to hear about atheist morality from you lmao #not that athiests lack issues i swear to god white dudes who evangelize atheism like its their new religion #have WILDLY missed the point and often suffer the same problem as the aforementioned Christians #wherein the onky thing thats ever given them any kind of pushback is the church so they decide RELIGION is horrible and bad as a whole #which isnt true religion can be a perfectly lovely amazing thing for people but that brand of atheist #doesnt seem to understand that people turned away from the church because of wide spread abuse and discrimination not because #believing in god makes you literally mentally ill like some of these fuckos act like. abelist AND shite to religious folks in one fowl swoop #so you know atheists have problems too but like they arent making laws in their beliefs images across the world so you know #temper the criticism with how influential the group actually is although richard dawkins types DID get a lot of space to spew their idiocy #like dawkims if you think youre SOOOO much smarter than christians how come you have ALL the same misogyny problems??#youre not that smart and logical if youve decided a whole kind of person is inherently less than you buddy. in fact thats very Christian #of him actually. funny when that happens but again if you dont actually know WHY something is a problem #its very easy to say Thats Bad and then literally do the exact same thing you just condemned because when YOU do it its no longer bad #because its got YOUR flavor of fucked up morality on it now instead of being like hmm maybe Christianity isnt a problem #because it EXISTS but because a lot of people use their religion as a pointed barb to discriminate against huge swaths of people #and often the intolerance becomes a legal issue when Christians and other religious majorities shove through laws based on EXCLUSIVELY their #religions and opinions and that doesnt mean religion should be dismantled it means we ahould tell religious folk who would know what #morality was if it fucked them up the ass to shut up and figure out what morality is outside of rekigion before they start legislating about #it and whatnot. also i wish extreme opinions werent ALL the news focused on exclusively on the political right #can we platform some NORMAL well adjusted christians who are god loving AND not a bunch of wingnuts #who are two steps away from arguing thou shall not kill only applies to people they LIKE because they dont seem to understand #maybe murder is bad when EVERYONE does it not just The Bad People??!?!

always remembering that it is entirely possible that i may have the. seasonal depression

#random thoughts #AUGH.#and to be born in winter !!#my birthday is in 30 days. i don't want anything. i don't want to do anything #6 days before valentine's day. which is going to be my parents' fourth anniversary.#of their divorce.#which i think is incredibly ironic. and so i do not like valentine's day.#but for a special person i may be willing to celebrate it. for the first time.#but. oh. fuck my birthday honestly. i don't need it #all i want is happy numbers. and happy hobbies. and sleep. and my beloved. him.#he is so lovely. so kind always. and so silly. this i enjoy about him.#i wish he showed in more of my dreams. all i ever see are my friends and family outside.#oh! sheets. fuck.

ok now u got me thinking. aki coming back as the Cold devil. or the Winter devil. or the Snow Storm devil. and he looks the same as he did when he was human but his irises are like a powder blue and there’s always snow in his hair and his lashes. and contrast that with falling in love with you again who he thinks of as so warm and kind and loving….. thawing him….. much to think about - 🍊

the same year the gun devil was eliminated, japan experienced a particularly hard winter season — perhaps that's why he was reborn as the snow devil. when he first opened his eyes, he was met with a dark and cloudy sky, he could hear the lull of the ocean, his ears were still ringing from the hum of a chainsaw and the only thing he can remember is his first name, and particularly not his last.

public safety is quick to follow through on the reports of a humanoid-looking devil wandering the outskirts of hokkaido, leaving a trail of frozen water and dead trees in his path. upon capturing him, since he seemed to not pose much of a threat, he's escorted to the headquarters in tokyo rather than slain.

once the devil gets there, he's apathetic, quiet. doesn't speak unless spoken to. his skin is pale, his lips are chapped, his eyes are a pretty shade of blue and his eyelashes are pure white. he'd pass as a human if it wasn't for the twist of icicles sticking out from his head like horns, covering his hair and his shoulders in tiny droplets of snow, or for the intricate marks on his skin, faint tattoos in the shape of snowflakes.

he looks familiar. like someone who's face was in the obituaries a while ago.

in the mail, you get an unexpected letter from public safety. it includes train tickets, and it's telling you to come to tokyo on urgent business. the minute you've arrived, some devil hunters explain the situation: you need to have a look at this devil — the snow storm devil — and tell them everything you might know about it.

of course, you've never heard of such a thing before. you don't know anything about devils, how are you supposed to give them any valuable information? but when the hunters unlock the cell for you, when you take a step inside and they tell you, don't worry, just keep your distance and you won't get hurt right as they flick the lights on, you realize exactly why you were called here.

it's him.

it's aki, this devil looks exactly like aki, his hair is long and dark and messy, he's got the same face as aki and the same voice as aki when he opens his mouth to ask who you are. he doesn't get to finish his sentence and tell you how damn familiar you look to him because you're already running over, reaching out to touch him even though the devil hunters are yelling at you from the other side of the door, telling you it's too dangerous.

and his skin is cold, he's freezing. you grip his hands, you wrap your arms around him and hug him and it's aki.

aki isn't sure why, but right then, he feels like crying. he's felt nothing but coldness since he came to this place, but you feel so, so warm. his heart twists in his chest, he hugs you back even though he doesn't really know why. he could kill you, he could press his palm to your back and watch you freeze until you're nothing but dust and ice. but he doesn't.

he holds you close, he breathes frost-filled air into the nape of your neck. his body shakes, you mutter into his ear that you've missed him. you pull away, and there's a look in his eyes that's familiar, it's one you've always known.

and yet, when you nervously ask him if he knows who you are, if he remembers you, aki answers honestly, and it's the most the devil has ever spoken: "I don't. But I feel like I should. I'm sorry."

#how about you having to protect devil aki from being slain #perhaps injuring yourself in order to keep him safe #and it confuses him because why would you do something so kind for a devil?#don't you understand what he is? why are you so kind to him?#you end up trying to do things to jog his memory but in the end it never works #but it does make him slowly fall in love with you all over again #and as you grow closer to him and treat him with more warmth and affection #the days in winter seem to be warmer as a result....#thanks for indulging me in reincarnation aki..... I have the brain worms for it right now....#just the idea of aki who gets a second chance at life but has to rebuild everything from scratch #aaaa.. a.. a. aasbsbbww #wanna write something full about it some time #I really love the idea of aki being a snow related devil.... I also imagined him being like a snow devil but #he's like a snow angel so he has big white wings #ask mags #aki <3

that Bobby Bones interview with Taylor where he claims that the cookies she gave him made him sick and she tells him to stop lying is my Roman Empire because I can’t stop thinking about how, while keeping it still lighthearted enough for interview etiquette, she unequivocally shuts down his gaslighting and despicable toad behavior.

#it’s that part of Taylor that’s just a steel wall #and it’s why women love her so much #because a LOT of women would have taken it. would have felt forced to. to apologize or concede or play into his little mind games #not all. But honestly. A lot and so watching her NOT do it is so healing.#she just absolutely refuses to budge. there is a part of her that looks bad behavior right in the eye and says fuck you #but calmly. and it’s the fact that she’s that but also the glitter and the love of winter/baking/etc. and the extreme girliness #like I just. it’s soooooooooooo healing/cathartic/EVERYTHING.#in her actual interview she also called him out for calling himself a nice guy and then denying he ever said that which was also iconic #also I hate him so much I want to fight him in a denny’s parking lot and then force him to do hours of community service #Bobby bones is what I mean when I say men need to be forced to till the land #like. This is a kind of man who will not learn until he has been broken and then re-moulded by honest physical toil #instead he has a podcast oh I am going to be sick

Ivy’s sweater slipped off her left shoulder when she leaned forward, baring skin of golden cream to the morning sunlight. “Okay, I get that.” She didn’t notice when he nudged the sweater back in place with [telekinesis], the temperature too cold for her to be so exposed. [...] “How did they know your subdesignation so fast?” Her sweater slipped again and he nudged it back. “It usually takes time to be certain, even with genetic markers.” [...] Vasic glanced at her shoulder, nudged the sweater back up. This time, she noticed, color on her cheeks as her hand went up to the spot. “How many times?” “Five.” He got to his feet before he could make it six. “I need to rest.”

I do love that I'm both freezing and having the worst back pains.

But at least I still have a roof above my head, right?

#personal #so here's the thing:#i don't think any of the radiators in my apartment are currently working #which kind of sucks bc it's winter in northern europe lmao #one of them had blown a fuse. which i changed yesterday. and now it's cold again. so there's definitely something wrong with it #two of them. which are located in my bedroom/living room combination. have red lights on #but they are both cold and not heating up my apartment. which means i'm freezing here #so it could be a thermostat or something. i don't know #but because my place was a mess. after having worked for a few months and not having energy to do anything else #i had to clean up here yesterday. because i couldn't call my landlord who lives closeby in case he decided to drop in and see #the mess i was living in. to you know. check on those radiators #so anyway. my apartment is pretty okay now. stuff i still need to clean though but it's mostly minor #but i seem to have strained my lower back doing it. or from sleeping in an awkward position because i was cold #the kind of pain i haven't experienced in months which must be a record for me now #but yeah now my lower back hurts. i can't properly crouch or even twist my body to the side without my knees trying to give out #and i've already taken painkillers for it today. which kind of put me to sleep again and had a lovely little nap a while ago #but this is bothersome #i hope my back feels better by tomorrow so i can finish my cleaning and then message my landlord #because i don't want to freeze here anymore xD and i also don't want my houseplants dying because of it so

my official take on the moon/qibli/winter love triangle is that winterwatcher is a much grander, epic romance, and moonbli is a much more level, sweet-and-simple romance, but ultimately i think it was a better decision to have the latter be the canon romance in a series primarily marketed towards children and teens than fall into the "bad boy" romance trope, and instead romanticize the earnest, genuine, sweet relationship

obviously there's way more nuance to this involving internalized/unconscious bias, and winter doesn't even REALLY fit into the "bad boy" archetype, but purely based on genre conventions, the gruff, rude, brooding, tortured hero VERY often falls into that category, and at the ages of 7-14 most of us were very LIKELY to be romanticizing that archetype, which again is very often treated as interchangeable with the "abusive bad boy" trope, and while i might have a few gripes with the writing of moonbli and i ENJOY winterwatcher a whole lot, i DO appreciate the more gentle, "safe" romance being treated as the ideal, rather than the tense and angst-filled nature of the alternative

#i could talk about this way more but im in the middle of rereading dod so itll have to wait #what i DO have to add is like. something something the ideal romance being the calmer safer one and how - for me at least -#those years of my life were so complicated and difficult and i made this image of romance out to be this massive painful epic tale #of heartbreak and passion and huge declarations of love and everything #but ultimately; imparting the lesson to children that a romantic relationship should be SAFE - it should be your comfortable place #where youre happy and content and feel warm and secure - is MUCH better #than pressing upon them the idea that it should be this epic battle of tension and painful pining and everything #(whether its something simply overlooked in the writing or not; the fact is winter also DIDNT ever apologize to moon for #all the hurtful things he said or did - which isnt to say hes a BAD GUY i love winter so much -#but i think romanticizing those kinds of dynamics - which is tricky but CAN be done - is better saved for works marketed towards #more mature and emotionally intelligent audiences than i think wof might be meant for)#ANYWAY I HAVE LOTS OF THOUGHTS #god im so glad i got back into this series. the literary love of my life #mine #wof #winter #moon #qibli #wings of fire #winterwatcher #moonbli #meta

you are perfection, my only direction (it's fire on fire)

piarles ~ dragon rider au ~ 40k words ~ rated e

"Since I'm already happily married," Sebastian says dramatically, but somehow also fondly, "it will have to be you, Charles. For the good of the House, and all that." He waggles his eyebrows suggestively. "So, is there anyone from House Tauro you might agree to marry, Charlie?"

Charles suspects that Sebastian loves to fluster him, and he hates that it works every time. "I… I mean," he stammers, his mind going suddenly and suspiciously blank except for blue eyes, and the familiar lilt of Pierre's laugh. Yes, of course, his heart wants to scream. Of course. Always. Anytime.

(The one where Pierre and Charles are Dragon Riders, and spectacularly stupid about their feelings, and have to marry each other to prevent an inter-House war.)

Father, why are you obsessed with Mia /genq

Because she's

FUCKING

HOT

Also I find her voice really nice, she's arguable really smart, and realistically she'd be kind of badass if Capcom didn't fucking nerf her. She's a character who's gone through a lot of shit that's just never talked about or addressed in-game and that makes her incredibly interesting. She's morally grey. She has PTSD that's clearly going unchecked (and potentially unmedicated. She has a lot of pills, but I don't know that any of them are actually meds to help with her problems. Like I've looked into possibilities before and *one* of them might be anti-depressants/anxiety meds but I don't know enough about medications to confirm that. It's just as likely they're just vitamins or birth control or something). She cares about her daughter, but then vanishes from the story and is barely mentioned.

She feels like a very neglected character, which is incredibly unfair considering she's pretty much the reason for half of the shit that happens. So maybe there's a part of me that just wants to add to her and flesh her out.

All in all I just find her interesting.

And also she's hot and I want her to bend me over a table.

#i don't actually know why mia is the one who stuck with me. i think because she has the most angst potential #and also the whole throwing you through a wall thing is hot #which is funny because i don't feel this way about alcina despite her doing the same kind thing #i mean #i love her don't get me wrong #but she's not mommy to me like she is to everybody else it feels pff #asks #anons #mia winters

she feels no control of her body. she feels no safety in my arms.

#twedit #twrarepair #josh x violet #violet x josh #spikeface #bericas winter break*#thank you for the request!!! i love lying!!!!!#this is only Kind of Sort of the vibe plot wise its just hard to lie too much with characters who have never interacted JKDFGHJKDHGDFG #cause it becomes a little like unrecognizable! BUT! violet can still begrudgingly march him out of the chimera pack later in the fake 5a #my Vibe for this stage of fake 5a is just that violet survives s4 by becoming a nagual and like evrey other villain she just kind of.#becomes vaguely part of the pack.#which would lend more tension of sciles earlier in the season too bc violet literally just tried to kill scott and now shes hanging around #i think violet likes to stay busy so she kind of gloms onto something she can do that wont end up with her dead #and also does whatever else she can do to distract her from her dead bf #enter clubbing! enter josh! enter violet knowing hes full of shit from the get go!#but she doesnt know how much!!! she just knows hes doing the same thing she is; hes just distracting himself from smth else #she doesnt know that they have throat-slashed solidarity or that would josh also died one time #just that hes a liar who likes to club. and same!!!!#and they end up a little flirty just bc its fun and feels good to have something their respective packs dont know #and they both dont rly feel aligned with those packs anyway. and suddenly theyre really close and both trying not to smile #but for josh it feels too big and heavy to start something up with someone rn so when violet makes a move he backs off #and then they probably dont talk. until. both packs go to break lydia out and they see each other there #oh im out of tags for my blog now. im gonna tag jsut in case #tw #josh diaz #violet #anyway this was so fun such a good lie thank u for this spike #lie josh and violet would have sooooo much to bond abt in terms of. obviously the throat slashing and the death #but also josh is a boy who died and came back and garrett died and stayed dead. so thats. you know. a lot.#and then also just the loss of autonomy. both of their bodies are unrecognizable and their rage disguised as nonchalance is wearing thin
