[sakuraluck]

this moment will never fail to make me feral bc he gave up!!! till, the boy who rebels even when all it does is get him hurt, the one who burns as brightly as the stars in the sky, the flame that lasted for almost two decades finally gave up!!! he snuffed out!! he closed him eyes and stopped fighting!! do you understand how devastating that is??

especially to ivan who idolizes and adores him for it?? who has only ever known till for his never-ending love and will that never falters? to see the man he loves broken down like this—a hurt that extends far beyond that of the physical body but to his soul— must’ve been terrible

and you can see it

ivan’s crumpling too. his mental state is on the verge of snapping too. his shoulders are dropped and his eyes are bloodshot.

till’s given up and ivan can see it and as his hands tighten around the other’s neck, a voice whispers what if you don’t let go?

because that’s what till wants right? he isn’t going to win against luka like this. he wants to die and no matter what ivan does, it’s not going to change that. so why not kill him?

that way they can die together.

wouldn’t that be wonderful?

ivan has always had a great potential for darkness and he holds it back most of the time, rarely ever letting it come to the surface. it wouldn’t be far off to assume this was one of those moments, where emotions are high and last minute regrets and wishes are surging forth—it isn’t far off to think there was a small part of him that was seriously contemplating throwing away his decision to sacrifice himself alone.

but then he gets shot in the chest, through the lungs, and the pain snaps him out of it. because this is it. this is the end. and he remembers why he’s doing this.

he remembers his desire to save till despite how foolish as it may be, how hypocritical it may be. the light reappears in his eyes and it’s ivan in love again. it’s ivan swelling with pure love, looking at till for last time.

it’s ivan doing the one thing he’s never been able to do:

it’s ivan letting go

#fuck the image limit #ivantill #alien stage #alien stage till #alien stage ivan #i think rather than the act of sacrificing himself its the acting of letting go of till that’s the most selfless thing ivan has ever done #i have more thoughts on this but more on that later #tl;dr ivan loves him so so much!!! #i don’t think he went into this thinking he’ll kill till but the thought definitely briefly crossed his mind #but love wins<3 doomed yaoi 4ever<3

Obsessed with Simon sacrificing his life every chance he gets to save Markus but when it's Markus risking his life to save him Simon tells him every fucking time he shouldn't have done that

#simon be like markus' life > the lives of other androids > my life like literally every android life comes first than his own #and people wonder why he is my favorite dbh character and one of my favorite characters of all time #he is so selfless and brave always ready to die for others but he doesn't want anyone to die for him #just imagine if markus died trying to save him????

The fact that the entire crew lied to Stede at some point to take the blame for Ed’s actions because they knew that hearing just how severly he traumatized him would have scared him off (not as in being scared of Ed, but as in being scared that he has hurt Ed so much that he would rather run away once more as to not cause any more suffering than to face him and actually fight for him) and they couldn’t let that happen because everyone who has been near Blackbeard in the last few months knows that the only way to help this man, the only way to temporarily and after some work even permanently fix his deep rooted turmoil is Stede fucking Bonnet.

#ofmd #our flag means death #and the man who knew him best - Izzy - took the most blame out of all of them #I’m so proud of his growth. he tried to seperate them to have ‘his old captain’ for himself #but instead he ended up realizing that he was the catalyzer in causing Ed to end up being so much worse #Izzy has accepted that he will never compare to Stede when it comes to Ed’s love #and he is so fucking selfless that instead he even tries to help Stede to win Ed back because at this point he just wants him to be happy #Izzy has accepted that there is no Blackbeard. He is finally trying to do what makes Edward happy #and I’m so proud of him for chosing that path especially after everything he’s been through #Izzy hands #Edward teach #Stede Bonnet #stede fucking bonnet #ofmd s2 spoilers

ALEC POST

Aka: Dearest followers, we are gathered here today….

Oh mein gott. If I got a nickel for every time a character experienced something so trivial but so jaw-dropping that it made me put down my phone for twenty minutes and go “how do I even begin to post about this. I’m frightened to try” and then STRAIGHT UP CROAKED (!) JUST THREE CHAPTERS LATER (!!) I’d have a singular nickel, and that’s one nickel too many by far. That is too many nickels.

This is my roundabout way of saying that I was sent to the high heavens by Grace’s fantastically uncalled for homophobic digs at Alec, and then he was sent to… ok, maybe not heaven, but the poor boy passed on, as aforementioned, just three chapters later.

Let’s preserve the moment for posterity:

“That’s lame,” Imp said.

“Really lame,” Regent echoed, “I prefer the vagina thing.”

“Way you dress,” Grace commented, “I wasn’t so sure.”

“Ohhhhh,” Imp cut in, she elbowed Regent, “Ohhhhh. You going to take that?”

Regent only laughed in response, shaking his head.

Absolutely insane. There are, frankly, no words. Save for the ones I assume tumblr user lakesbian has written on Alec’s sexuality — portrayal, possible readings, etc — which I am now off to seek. Semi-relatedly, I love Imp so much it pains me. I am going to miss the nightmare pairing that is aishalec now and forever and ever :-(

#so fucked up… fly high little victorian boy #hope they got bicuriosity in your afterlife. sincerely. #wormblogging #worm spoilers #ok a stab at seriousness: I do really really love that our last moments with regent were him at his most lighthearted/carefree #and (respectively) him at his most selfless #I hate that he had to go but it did touch me. alec…

The fact that this won’t even be the LAST time Sanji gets horribly manipulated by another woman. I’m just 😔

#HE’S A SIMP and girls take advantage of that too often 😭 #AND THE FACT THAT he still forgives them anyway!! Even after putting him through hell!! #Listen say what you want about Sanji but there’s no denying that he’s. SUCH a good person #Too good of a person who is endlessly kind and caring and forgiving #Sanji gives and gives and gives and never takes. He’s so stupidly selfless sometimes it makes me want to cry #And people take advantage of that so often :’( #HE’S A GOOD BOY!!! He doesn’t deserve this #Shima speaks #One Piece #Sanji #Black Leg Sanji #He literally became my favorite (besides Luffy) for this exact reason #The fact that he’s so self sacrificing. The fact that he gives himself entirely to other people #And doesn’t expect anything in return #And has so little self worth I just. FUCKING hell dude. #His attempted sacrifice at Thriller Bark was a really big thing too #’They can always find another cook’ that was probably his thought process #BUT SANJI MY LOVE. THEY CAN NEVER FIND ANOTHER SANJI. ANOTHER YOU #If Sanji had taken Zoro’s place he WOULD have died. And that would have fucking torn Luffy APART #SLAMS MY HEAD INTO THE GROUND UGHHH SANJI. I LVOE YOU

SVSSS | Did Gongyi Xiao ever stand a chance against Luo Binghe?

My heart will never stop aching for our golden boi Gongyi Xiao and as much as I OTP Bingqiu, I often wonder if GYX stood a chance against LBH, and not for reasons that he has to die because he's too similar to the male lead or ZZL needed to remove a threat/take revenge. Like could GYX, being the incredibly obedient, handsome and upstanding golden boi that he is, even bearing such close resemblance to LBH, could he have won over SY!SQQ's heart? Because ok, the only thing that SQQ actually laments about GYX being lacking to LBH is the compatibility of their teamwork against a common enemy but that's because LBH has had the advantage of knowing SY!SQQ longer and cultivated directly under him as his disciple. Like if GYX were to cultivate under SY!SQQ and also got to know him for the same length of time, would they have worked out?

And then I came to realise that the answer is simply...no. GYX's most notable trait is his righteousness. He would betray orders and hierarchy if he believed that they were doing the wrong thing, but he's not the type to be completely shameless/selfish about it. He won't actively drag bystanders into the chaos if he can help it.

But that's also why he is not compatible with SY!SQQ because SY!SQQ is ultimately most attracted to LBH's shameless obsession with him. LBH is "everything related to Shizun" first and righteousness second. He won't hesitate to practise demonic cultivation, flirt publicly by offering to massage Shizun's sore waist, cause a huge ruckus in order to protect SY!SQQ and to fight over his corpse. LBH's strive for righteousness is driven by the assumption that an upstanding man is the only kind of man his Shizun accepts and that's what he has to become in order for SY!SQQ to stay with him but when shizun dies, righteousness kind of goes out the window. Anddddddd SY!SQQ says he likes them righteous and upstanding but he’s just as fucked up. The man can deny to the heavens but it's so obvious that he enables LBH's obsession by being a housewife, grieving widow then "sacrificing himself" in the name of "repayment", causing a huge-ass ruckus and ripple waves of longlasting pain for his sect family. Like damn, SQQ can be kind and upstanding but when it comes to LBH, isn't that also a shameless obsession? It just wouldn't have worked out with GYX because it would have been textbook master-disciple platonic, GYX would have pushed aside any of his own selfish/romantic desires and every action would have been carefully considered for the greater good of his sect and martial family. It's really like a goldilocks sort of situation, GYX is too righteous, ZZL is too fucked up (he makes sense though in demon logic), LBH babygirl is just the right amount of fucked up and 100% Shizun's sheep with a very pat-able head.

#like SY!SQQ says he hates LBH crying during Papapa but he actually gets off on it #SY!SQQ is kind yeah yeah but he really do be giving so much grief to #everyone else who cares about him when he decides to off himself #but that's what the Bingqiu dynamic is like #bingqiu love is selfless and selfish and so fucked up #to the point it 360s back to a healthy balance #selfish/shameless isn’t quite the right word but he sure makes his obsession with LBH quite inconvenient for everyone else #svsss #gongyi xiao #shen qingqiu #shen yuan #svsss meta #svsss analysis #luo binghe #ren zha fanpai zijiu xitong #mxtx svsss

SvS is great because Janus's argument is simultaneously so well crafted and also so deceptive and manipulative. Look at him go. He really fits the lawyer role to a tee

#he runs circles around thomas while interrogating him and its insane to watch #and then he's like 'the only reason you don't speed is to avoid a ticket' #and cuts off thomas when he tries to go 'or maybe its because i don’t want to die in a fucking car crash' #the whole max stirner bit is really good too cause again it's so well presented and you wanna be like ok ok go off #but then its like oh ur just gonna gloss over the relevant details of him not practicing what he preached? for the sake of ur argument? ok #+his reaction to thomas saying the trial is unfairly set up is basically just 'uhhhh ok but its not that serious though' #as if he didnt set up the entire scenario in the first place and give a whole ass Joker monologue at the witness stand like ok sure buddy #i love him he's so slippery and slimy and manipulative and charismatic #the anti hero ever #i think patton not knowing wtf he was doing also made janus look a lot smarter by comparison to be fair #he also ran circles around patton to the point where patton's interrogation of him straight up ended with janus interrogating patton instea #janus sanders #sanders sides #selfishness vs selflessness #ts janus #deceit sanders #ts deceit #and yes this is subtle lawyer shade LMAO #ive never met a lawyer that wasnt shady and corrupt af

imagine going somewhere that you know you might not come back from. imagine leaving behind half-formed friendships and the facimile of your old ones, hand in hand with ppl who want you dead, because its the right thing to do. imagine you don't come back, just like you anticipated, except thats not entirely true. you dont survive, but some force stops you from leaving in peace; it leaves your body lifeless because it has no use for you besides the terror your mind can inflict on others, but it just won't let you die. imagine one day, you're free from the mental prison you've been trapped in. you wake up, but you're still not alive. you're cold and empty and no one looks at you the same because they can't stand to look at you. it hurts because you can't do anything but hurt people anymore. imagine you had no choice in this, except you did, didn't you? its all your fault because you were too curious, too naive, too prideful, too stupid. its all your fault, just like you always thought, and now everyone agrees with you. imagine they wish you hadn't woken up, and you can't help but agree with them. and yet, you do everything in your power to save them all, while you still have people left to save. because you're still you, even if your friends see an animated corpse in your place. you hold onto your humanity with white knuckles and gritted teeth because its all you have left of yourself. and you still lose by the end because you were set up to fail since the beginning. because you are jonathan sims, and the world has no sympathy for you

guy trapped in a hell of his own creation: haha ive never done anything wrong in my entire life. and im always right:] anyway. why did my little brother move out:(

its so funny to me that at first glance tashi seems like hed be the most 'normal' out of all the clones but at least all the others are slowly healing n shit while hes just getting more and more insane each day and one day hell snap and explode and maim someone

#my art #my funky guys #HES SO FUCKING STUPID. #tashi im sorry ily but youre literally the dumbes fucking motherfucker ive ever seen. and a cringe loser. never change king<3 #like. this guy realised he was a clone when he was a month old and decided to base his new personality entirely #on the idealised version of the original he made up in his head. #like he did this to himself!!! he chose to revolve his entire personality around being a 'perfect flawless mom friend'!!!!!!! #in his head hes like the most selfless & altruistic person to ever walk the earth but in reality hes a sad selfish mess who just wants to #be loved. #he started out as a pretty nice and level headed guy who wanted to help ppl but then it just spiraled when he made that his entire #personality bc of his inability to move on from a lie he really wanted to be true. #he percieves shiro as this perfect flawless leader figure and he wants DESPERATELY to imitate that. deep down its not enough for him to #simply coparent and share responsibility w the others. no no no he has to be The Leader and do everything himself! #this mindset results in him later on starting to dismiss and undervalue his familys work and commitment to keeping them all alive- #esp soup. like sHE WAS THERE W HIM FROM THE VERY BEGINNING THEY ARE EQUALS THEY ARE BOTH EQUALLY IMPORTRANT #AND HES SO FAR UP HIS ASS HE FORGOT. somewhere along the line he forgot. he missed the point. he spiraled too deep. #and he knows. he knows but hes so terrified of change and growth and admitting he CANT do this alone. #he wants to be a cool epic capable solo leader AND he craves family and connection soooo badly he cant live w/o his loved ones. #so yeah. hes an angry little pathetic freak<3 i love him #despite all that hes not a bad person. just a flawed guy thrown into a situation so stressful and traumatising that he clinged to the only #coping mechanism he had at the time and just sorta. ran with it. #dw he gets better tho! it takes a lot and his and sticks relationship is strained for a LONG time but he slowly gets better. good for him

One thing that always shits me is how the women of The West Wing always think the best way to get favours out of Sam is to play to his ego. It's often been played off like a joke, and in season one, when it was CJ wanting help learning about census data, Sam played into it, but throughout the show it gets worse. To the point where it's clearly upsetting to him.

I hate watching these women play at acting like damsels to get his help with something when he's probably the only one on the show who would always do pretty much anyone a favour just because he's kind. Sam actually listens to people's arguments. Women included. They don't have to manipulate him into trying to impress them. He's willing to be persuaded and to change is mind. Hell, one time he cancelled a rare holiday (ugh, "vacation") last minute because a man who literally used to beat him up asked for help. Yes, Sam felt responsible for saving a man's life, but that's the point. He cares. Even when it really isn't on him, he'll make it his problem.

#don't even get me started on Mandy saying he owes her #theres no way shes ever done him a favour in her life #she completely played on his selflessness #my darling sam deserved better #he also deserved a boyfriend #i get this is what AS thinks it looks like when women try to assert power #its fucking embarrassing to be honest #but why did they always use sam to do it #hes just a kind lil autistic person #stop trying to manipulate him #sam seaborn #the west wing
