do you ever just remember how one of the most effective things parvis said to get silence to lose faith in saria was essentially "do you really think she would ever choose YOU over everything?" and silence with her low self esteem really didn't believe saria would.
Then in the end saria really did choose them over everything, left her defense director job and her whole life up to that point behind for the sake of silence and ifrit. and silence still doesnt even know. do you ever think about that and lose your mind a little bit.

hey writers of Found, I'm going to need a whole background on the friendship between Margaret and Dhan because it is absolutely precious! they seem like such different characters with such different life stories, but they have such an intuitive connection, they're so understanding and supportive of one another, and seem to have such an easy but strong bond, and I want to know how they got there and to see so much more of it
I mean, look at these cuties:
"I'm proud of you" :')

naruto as a whole is a fucking mess and i say thisas somebody whos read the entireseries 3 times over. “naruto is going to change the system! haha teehee never mind hes not doing anytning about the child soldiers and slave castes and the genocides.” “sasuke can be upset at his brother for committing a genocide but actually genocide against an oppressed bloodline is good if theyre getting uppity and its sanctioned by the government and also have a genetic predisposition to be evil so he should just get over it and be okay with it” “sakura needs to stop obsessing over a guy whos not even interested and become strong for her own sake. actually shes a housewife now”
kishimoto im going to blow you up with my mind
YOU GET IT
For real though I think what they did with Sasuke's arc was one of the most baffling fucking things I've ever seen. "Actually. Your brother who carried out a genocide loved you :( he only put you in the Torment Nexus for several days because uhhh he wanted you to hate him and not find out about the government who ordered it. Everything he ever did was actually to protect you. And Uchihas are actually kinda rotten anyway so it's good an entire GROUP OF PEOPLE died. Don't think about any babies or children who were also slaughtered btw uhh nope all of them were bad."
Sasuke: "Yes I understand. I will now rule the world through fear. Actually nvm Naruto won our fight so, my philosophy is gone now."
Thank goodness that Evil Sasuke killed the three Bad Government Officials before that point, though. We had this whole theme going about toxic structures, cycles of abuse, and how oppressive regimes can propagate themselves even when a leader is well-meaning... but, like, Naruto REALLY wants to be Hokage, so actually if you just kill these Three Bad Governors it's gonna be fine.
There is no need for systemic change. Slave castes and child soldiers are fine. It's ok as long as the president is blonde :)

Crying because I just watched the final episode of Pushing Daisies and now I have no more to watch and because the show actually managed to throw together a really suitable series finale on super short notice that not only confirmed Ned and Chuck tell her aunts that she's still alive but also framed the reveal (and final) scene like Ned and Chuck were getting married. <333 #soulmates
But also crying because Pushing Daisies said 'himbo' twice back in 2008 aka over a decade before Tumblr discovered the word and I'm losing my mind about it

whether weather be the frost // or the violence of the dog days is such a good lyric like the pen game in evermore is unreal. it’s almost her time of the year to shine
