#but it's still beyond upsetting

[dont-let-me-eat-pears]

to whoever had the brilliant idea to open 4x03 with a freaking carnival after 4x02 ended heartbreakingly with lancelot's death—

hey :) i wanna talk :)

#bbc merlin #merlin #lancelot #the darkest hour #the wicked day #4x02 #4x03 #merlin rewatch #text: merlin #my text #after putting my rewatch on pause for like 2 weeks i've decided to try skipping the second half of 4x02 for now #but the beginning of 4x03 made me feel /sick/ #i know the show always does this kind of upsetting crap and we're just meant to assume there's a time jump after an episode with #a tragic character death #but it's still beyond upsetting #i want to see lancelot MOURNED not forgotten by the next episode #another example of this show being bipolar

oh, heart of mine,

#trigun maximum #vashwood #nicholas d. wolfwood #vash the stampede #trigun #ID: Wolfwood is shown kissing Vash’s human arm - face turned down and in deep thought. he is not happy nor is he completely upset. #there are words around him. it’s up for the reader if it is him or Vash who are speaking them. #“can we have this?” it pleads. “have we done enough?” #next image is one of Vash now implied to be on the couch. he is drinking from his final glass. he is looking at Wolfwood who is seated — #— beyond the viewers vision. there is a deep sorrow in his eyes as he knows. he knows this is the end for Wolfwood. #still Vash pleads; “oh god. when have we done enough?” #my art

just finished www #23: on your way, and i have many thoughts. all of them make me want to cry.

ame knowing as soon as she got back to the cottage that her actions had burned a bridge, not just with the citadel but with one of her best friends, and yet still needing to complete her tasks as the witch of the world's heart. the spirits she awakens so as not to leave the cottage untended or unprotected, and the way she asks and does not take. the note she leaves, should her friends make it there.

eursulon in the fire, followed by the man in black, who is a brother in the way all spirits are brethren, but not the sibling eursulon seeks. leaving through the burrow, fighting monstrosities, and seeing the citadel raze cities to ruin beside a jungle of rot. finding the tree. his tree. the tree that is emblazoned on his shield, his coat of arms, what he fights to protect. and inside... his sister. a family she made for herself.

and suvi. hurt but still afraid that ame will die if she stays. determined to not let that happen. conversations with steel where she says that another wizard said that the wizard sly lied, or did not tell the full truth. commiseration, but suvi holds back the full truth, and suspects steel of doing the same. an airship to fly north. to protect ame, yes. but the mage armor mean that no creature or spirit or witch will ever be able to touch her again. broken trust, if not broken love.

and through it all, the thread that the citadel represents a threat to the world's heart itself, and to all spirits beyond. the council of elders wishes to neutralize that threat. grandmother wren did not.

questions moving forward: what is the true purpose of the war on gaothmai being waged by the empire? why does kalaya's family look like suvi? is suvi going to have a villain arc? i have my theories, but i'll get into those in other posts.

thank you to the worlds beyond number cast and crew for giving us this incredible story. i'm so excited to see where you take us next.

#i was surprised but glad that suvi was upset with ame but still wanted to protect her #i was glad that ame knew she had done something hurtful to her friend #i'm SO fucking glad that eursulon found his sister! #i was sobbing throughout that whole scene with kalaya #also AME LEVELED UP! LEVEL THREE WITCH BABY! #and suvi had the fun empire music behind her... god i hope aabria gets to play villain arc suvi. that would be so hot #but also i want them to be ok and happy. conflicting interests #it's wild to listen to a dnd podcast that is straight up a drama #like it's funny in moments when they have a chance to be together and not stressed #but overall it is an epic where every player is taking the story seriously in every moment #that's the craziest part. there are so few bits #but it's amazing #worlds beyond number #wbn pod #wbn spoilers #the wizard the witch and the wild one #wbn: www #wwwo #wwwo spoilers #ame wbn #ame the witch #eursulon toma #eursulon the wild one #suvirin kedberiket #suvi the wizard #the wizard sky #erika ishii #lou wilson #aabria iyengar #brennan lee mulligan

I love how all of the companions' stories revolve around autonomy and I love how some of the romances show the whole "I love you for who you are"

Don't love how so many people are misinterpreting them though

#i think the romances thing really applies to wyll astarion and gale #wyll romance means you see beyond mizora and the half devil thing later #astarion romance means you see beyond the sexy facade and you prove to him that he doesnt need to perform for you to love him #gale romance is him getting over and understanding that mystra was never going to care about him like that #and that he doesnt need divinity to be loved #he's lovable as he is #anyway i feel my 'fuck mystra' feelings coming up again #bg3 #baldur's gate 3 #baldur's gate three #baldur's gate 3 spoilers #baldur's gate three spoilers #bg3 spoilers #i dont know if lae'zels romance works for this but i know that she figures out kindness along the way #i really hope they fix karlach's quest we're allowed to save everyone else #i saw someone compare her and gale and yeah sure it works #i tend to compare her and astarion more though #and its a little upsetting that karlach doesn't get the freedom she wants so hopefully larian patches that #astarion might not get the freedom to walk in the sun on the 'good ending' but he's free of cazador and he can finally choose for himself #and seeing as he's not dead and how he's been a vampire for around 196 years (not over 200 yet) there are still ways to help him #harder for karlach because either she dies and ashes are all thats left she goes back to avernus or shes a mind flayer #also its arguable easier to live in the shadows/underdark than it is in literal Hell #easier to reach him too

girl. you came in here and immediately started using mind control and illusion magic to torment people in their dreams, manipulate people into killing people, manipulate someone into your arms, and to take away people's free will. yeah idk that's gonna make people think you're bad

#kalyba: does a whole bunch of fucked up shit to people with magic beyond just morally gray #also kalyba: why does everyone call me a wicked witch 😔😔 I guess they just hate a powerful girlboss 😤 #like girl yes YOU are the drama #a day of fallen night #adofn spoilers #roots of chaos #honestly it's incredibly on brand bc when we see her in priory she's still upset about galian not loving her #she has no self awareness. zero. she genuinely thinks she hasn't done anything wrong in her life #meanwhile she is deadass giving people lifelong ptsd #lbr we have all known someone like kalyba lmao

This is just a guess but I feel like the reason they removed '^2' from beyond canon's title is so it's not seen as an official continuation/sequel to homestuck, which- im ngl I feel like doing that in the first place would have made the discourse a lot less toxic

Like. They could have just positioned it as an exploration of beyond the canon of homestuck proper (which it looks like this new team is doing), something like paradox space - but instead, they basically went 'yeah all these controversial decisions and butchered characters? Yeah they're the official follow up to homestuck' which absolutely didn't help

#i think thats why i didnt mind post canon #because id already mentally separated it from canon proper #so instead of getting upset about the (numerous) bad decisions and how they impacted canon #i could just ignore them and instead focus on the interesting or cool ideas and how theyd impact canon #<- highly recommend btw probably the best way to read post canon #also. lets be real post canon has some cool shit in it #dirks candy death? ult dirk? alt calliope and ult dirk fighting for narrative control? #commander karkat and davebot? #the kids? #theres some interesting shit there #me.txt #homestuck #homestuck beyond canon #god is that what the tag is now #homestuck 2 #still using this one

#original post #i do wish we got a snippet more of branwen twin stuff but i'm just biased cus i'm obsessed with them so don't take this as a complaint lol #i'm not looking a gift horse in the mouth! i'm just happy this got to be released at all! #but like. oh gosh the extensions added sm already!!! #team jnpr/ornj is falling apart without jaune. oscar and ozpin's merge is NOT going well. tyrian and mercury are already causing trouble #vale's been totally destroyed (WHERE'S TAI???). but ppl are still trying darn it! #things suck rn but they're trying to make the most of it in whatever way they can!! and i love that!! #if this is the end of rwby then i can't be too upset. man what a sendoff #and what a relevant message to today's world: of continuing despite everything trying to tear you down. despite the cruelty the world holds #bcus hope is hard and it's ok for it to be but you have to keep going #i'm glad i got to see this #and i wonder what rwby beyond will have in store... #rwby #rwby9 #rwby9 spoilers #rwby9 epilogue

i'll never forgive mnh making chungha wanting to give up on being an idol to the point she just wanted to go study abroad and get away from the industry and i can't imagine how bad they made her feel to the point that it was something she considered

#the fact that she didn't believe people were waiting for her #or that people were excited to see her teasers for the new company coming out #is so sad #i wish that company nothing but hell 😭 #they are so evil it's beyond insane to me #that even we knew that even before the shit they decided to pull today #but if there's anything it made me realize is that #they tried to make her feel small and like #that she wasn't successful enough to keep going with her career #when so many people love her even outside of her fandom #and a fresh start is good but it's so upsetting to me #that even after she ended the contract #they are still taking things away from her #tris.txt

Brb crying on this friday night

#my stuff #my ex texted me they’re having a rough time but they refuse to let me help #i feel so thoroughly useless to them and i feel like they should/will give me up as a friend if i’m not useful #like if we’re really friends like i think we are LET ME DO SOMETHING TO SUPPORT YOU #i’m actively offering to help and they refuse every time and it hurts bc i know they’re struggling and if we were partners still they would #they would let me support them like they deserve #i know at least some of what they’re struggling with is beyond my control but there’s a non-zero chance part of why they’re upset is me #in the sense that they’re struggling to navigate our friendship after they broke up with me #and i don’t want that to be a source of stress if so. i’ve offered to provide any and all reassurances that might help them #but they’ve said they don’t need to hear anything and need to work it out on their own #how’s uhhh how’s that going for you champ?? #they need support and i’m willing to give it but they won’t admit it even at cost #so i just get to sit here and hope they’ll be ok. and that i’m not making it worse in some way i can’t see #Spotify

I have read so many Tumblr posts about B and still none of them could have prepared me for just how much of a little freak he is. Misora is currently wondering whether he has bones in his neck.

#death note #beyond birthday #also everyones like damn whats the link between the victims #THEY ALL HAVE WEIRD FUCKING NAMES THATS WHAT #gee i wonder what could be linking believe bridesmaid #quarter queen #and backyard bottomslash #gee whillikers what a mystery #its the most beautiful looking book as well #thats what really gets me #all this presentation to read about a man scooping jam out of a jar with his bare hands #his hands have got to be so sticky #ive read the cement garden and the wasp factory and this might still be more upsetting #original post

Ingo held Khan's scaled wrist gently as he examined the claws his friend now sported. Five fingers had been turned into four deadly talons, new to Ingo but already put to gruesome work by the hybrid.

"I'm sorry about your hands..." he said softly. Khan shrugged as he examined his other claws.

"Eh, don't sweat it. It's hardly the worst thing they've done to me." He responded mildly. As though his body being changed against his will to a weapon was the norm. Ingo glanced at his eyes, his fangs, the remnants of his horns- and remembered this wasn't the first time his friend had been altered against his will. His grip on Khan's hand tightened.

"Still," he insisted, "if we'd found you guys sooner..."

If they'd found Khan and Nana sooner, Khan would still have his hands and Nana would still have both eyes. If they'd been just a little faster to realize the hybrids were missing, to remember where they had come from, if they had pushed their pokemon a little harder to fly and fight-

"I'm glad you found us at all, honestly." Khan said it off the cuff, without thinking, but must have felt how Ingo's grip tightened again. He turned his head to look at his friend and Ingo felt mild dread at the look in his eyes. As Khan leaned forward he cringed back just slightly.

"Hey, look on the bright side!" Khan accentuated his words with a point from his claws. He must have seen Ingo's confused upset because he smiled wider.

"The bright side?" Ingo repeated. There was a bright side to this?

Khan shut his eyes as if he was a teacher explaining something incredibly simple.

"Oh, my sweet summer train man, of course there is!"

He stuck out his claws like Elesa and Skylar did when they were showing off freshly done nails. The scales gleamed in the light, dimly iridescent.

"I match your color scheme now!"

Ingo's gaze remained on the claws for a moment. Was this really a good thing? Khan had lost another important part of himself because he and Emmet had been too slow. Was the simple black nature of his scales that important? Could it make up for everything else?

He looked up with tired eyes, meeting Khan's gaze again, and realized that Khan was not as unaffected as he thought. He was giving Ingo the softest smile he'd ever witnessed on the other man's scarred face, his eyes half shut and gentle. Khan had been there when it happened, had suffered the consequences, just as he had the last time he'd been abducted. He would figure out how to deal with his new appendages just as he always had before. It was not quite old hat, but it was also nothing new, and something would have been changed no matter how quickly he and Emmet had arrived.

For the first time in the years he'd known Khan, the hybrid was being sympathetic and offering Ingo a comfort over something he had no control of. Yes, he now had claws and scales, but they were the color that Ingo most frequently found himself in. The color of one of his closest family members. Ingo wondered if Khan had used that as a way to comfort himself after it happened, but didn't dare ask. Instead he tried smiling. Surely it was weak, but the worried look in Khan's eyes lessened.

"Yes, you're quite right." Ingo grasped Khan's claws as if they were still his hands, holding them tightly. He would get used to them, just as Khan had. It would be alright. "Another color would have been quite unfortunate."

#Khan a. #I have no name for this au #TLDR Emmet and Nana met up in the future-present. Nana developed beyond Khan and they managed to track them down in Hisui #And get them home. Akari comes with ofc. Ingo and Akari go back to visit their friends in Hisui regularly. They return after a visit #To find Emmet in distress. While they were gone Khan and Nana were abducted by the organization that originally made them what they are. #Secret labs are not as easy to find as people think and it takes some time for them to track down where Khan and Nana ended up. When they D #They find nana missing an eye. Khan missing his hands. And (to their surprise and horror) Rei. From Hisui. #Who is now a (hisuian) Growlithe hybrid in a similar manner nana and Khan are also hybrids. #Everyone gets saved but not without some losses. Given ow hpeaceful everything has otherwise been... this is upsetting to the train men. #Akari copes by making a pros and cons list of their new abilities and helping Rei adjust to the future #(he can't go back to Hisui because he still exists there... nobody knows why or how he came to be in the organizaion's clutches) #Emmet and Ingo are determined to track down and eradicate the rest of the offshoot branches of the organization but each feel guilty #If they'd been faster. If they'd been smarter. If they'd found a clue a little earlier. #If if if if if. Khan and Nana are no strangers to undesired body modification and are already getting used to them. #(primarily by mocking each other. They're allowed to. They've seen the worst of each other in the first hybridizations and now this.) #For Khan it's very much a 'well. This wasn't planned. Time to adapt.' #At least they didn't give him soft mittens he couldn't inflict damage in #but now he has to be careful lest he unintentionally inflict damage (he cut Akari by accident once already. It gutted him.) #Anyway that guilt manifests into ingo apologizing (more than once) #And Khan trying to convince him it's fine. It sucks but it's fine. It's not ingo or Emmet's fault. #Ingo better appreciate gentle and sympathetic Khan while he's got him cause once the guilt is over Khan is going back to being a bastard #Also I apologize for the beanie but I haven't figured out hair for ANY info #And I was not about to draw his bitch ass hat

you guys really like a5, huh.

got an art request?

#octopath traveler #octopath traveler ii #osvald v. vanstein #for a first attempt at the scholar with every mental illness i dont think it's half bad #the hair shape is still a little beyond me #i think his expression came out more upset than slightly embarrassed but osvald doesn't really emote much #unless he's yelling at harvey for [redacted] #also the pallete name. biting killing violence etc etc.

not to be like i wish I had a severe allergy but because i did not know it was an allergy until quite late in life (turns out tomatoes aren’t spicy …) i will often suffer a reaction in pursuit of deliciousness and i wish that that were not an option for me

#oof ouch my mouth and also stomach #the allergy is to nightshades #only raw thank GOD so I can still have potatoes without any issues beyond mildly upset tummy #but it is a beautiful summer day and I am not immune to caprese salad #also people would actually take it seriously :(((
