#he was only 51

[tamayokny]

I found my family friend’s obituary and I can’t stop crying. I still can’t believe he’s gone.

#Mads makes a text post #context: family friend unexpectededly passed away early Sunday morning #it’s related to a major heart attack he had last week #he was only 51 #and he’s one of my dad’s childhood friends - knew him for about 30-odd years #still in disbelief even though I found the obituary #lol I’m just like my dad I l have started to look at obituaries daily now #anyway um #gotta figure out what to wear on Friday bc I work that day as well #and the funeral home is right down the road from work so…whirlwind of emotions that day #funeral and burial is Saturday morning and…that’s it

The love between Gawain and my Father should be studied

#tell me why I was eating my yogurt in peace this morning and my fathers phone rang and I saw him having Gawain as a screensaver #mind you he is 51 and his only knowledge of anime is dragonball and exclusive Gawain from fgo because of my figure #I should probably add the whole context to this to explain it… #personal???

I’m working on the next installment of this au (among other things) but it’s going.. slow. So for funsies here are some sketches of the Greece episode that didn’t make the cut, but are canon to the events of the episode

#Noah’s stare was redrawn and integrated properly but the rest is new #I just really like that little drawing of Noah so he gets to be included #ANYWAY Area 51 is under construction I promise #I’m hoping to have something to show for Valentine’s Day cause I HAVE to celebrate Valentine’s Day with Noco #we’ll see what makes it #total drama #total drama world tour #world tour but noco are the only ones kissing #Starry makes art #let’s keep the art train GOING (doubtful but hopeful)

Out of any character in any piece of media that says “___ is my middle name!” this is the only one I would believe. Thanks, Alfred.

#fe engage #alfred #i love this boy so much ??? #also I saw someone on twitter being like yeah im gonna do an fe engage challenge run next #and was listing things to consider a challenge and one was Actually Use Alfred #and I'm like ??? and people in the replies were basically unanimous about YEAH MY ALFRED STATS SUCK #and I am sitting here in confusion cause people are whining about him getting doubled and im like yes but #my alfred gets doubled at a 51% chance of hit and 0 damage #why does it matter if he is doubled when the boy takes NO DAMAGE #and i once again am convinced its my love and affection for my son that allows him to grow up big and strong just like he wants #i am only ch15 so it could change but??? hes .... really.... good and i love him?

There's some hilarious irony in Stain getting his face smashed by someone with the same power as the hero he admires so much

#bnha reread #bnha 51 #bnha #hero killer stain #akaguro chizome #midoriya izuku #all might #curious if stain ever had a blue screen moment in izuku's “vigilante” arc when he realized this #by ironic i mean him being all i can't lose here i'll only be stopped by all might #while fighting a kid who is not not all might bc of quirk shenanigans

[mummer]

and he wept, for there were no more matt damon movies to conquer

#holy shit 😭 #i may be missing a few where he's only in like one scene ie unsane/mystic pizza/finding forrester #but i feel like i can call it there right. That's 51 movies #gonna rewatch a couple of classics too so dont worry. #one thing about me is i love having a project. #the good news is i can finally go back to watching real/good movies. lemme restart my criterion sub....

Kim Dokja & You, The Reader: A 51% Kim Dokja Character Analysis

Disclaimer: this is mainly an analysis of my own personal feelings while reading the epilogue, although I’m sure this is also applicable for other ORV fans too.

51% KDJ is our narrator. It’s the part of KDJ that loves Ways of Survival, and KDJ first and foremost is a reader to us; that’s how he introduces himself, after all, in the very beginning of ORV. That’s the whole premise, even. One man manages to successfully navigate the apocalypse all because he’s read a book about it. 51 feels genuine and authentic to us in a way that the third-person narrator 49% KDJ, who has lost all interest in TWSA, doesn’t. 49, in comparison, feels like a pale facsimile. 49 can’t be the actual Kim Dokja, because the Kim Dokja we know is on the subway narrating the book to us.

And so as the reader, when 51 is stuck on the subway, it feels like the real KDJ has been left behind. 49 is just an avatar, after all. The actual KDJ isn’t there to experience life after the scenarios with his companions, and that’s why it’s so heartbreaking. Surely, after everything he’s gone through, doesn’t KDJ deserve to be happy?

Here’s the thing: even before falling into the coma, 49 being able to spend time with KimCom still doesn’t feel like a happy ending. There’s a falseness to it; it doesn’t sit right. During the picnic, Yoo Sangah has a conversation with Han Sooyoung; she asks HSY if she really thinks that the other companions haven’t noticed that something is off about Dokja. But then she continues:

“That person is also Dokja-ssi. Doesn’t matter how much percentage he is made out of, there’s no doubt that he is Dokja-ssi. Dokja-ssi who journeyed together with us.”

Yoo Sangah asked her. “Is there any meaning in deciphering which one is really him?”

(Chapter 521)

This raises the following question: who really is Kim Dokja? YSA makes a good point here; 49 has all the important memories that KDJ shared with them, and it’s impossible to truly know 100% of a person, so isn’t it enough that they still have the 49% that matters?

But as a reader, you’re left feeling unsatisfied like HSY because you know that the 49% avatar isn’t really him. Of course it isn’t enough. The 49% of him that’s there isn’t the same KDJ that we know; that one is stuck on the subway.

But that’s not quite right either. Because the KDJ on the subway, as genuine as he feels, is still only 51% of him. We as the readers are like YSA in that respect; we can’t truly know all of KDJ either. KDJ the first-person narrator is different from KDJ the companion, and as the reader, there’s this fundamental distance between our world and his that we’ll never be able to comprehend.

So you’re left looking at 51 thinking, “This is the one that matters! Come get him off the subway!” If you’re me, you might even be looking at YSA thinking, “How can you be happy like this?! This isn’t a happy ending!”

But in reality, you’ve fallen into the same trap. The only part of KDJ’s story you can really know is the parts that he tells you, and as an unreliable narrator, you know he’s leaving things out. Sure, you also know his backstory and his internal monologue. You might even think you can comprehend him the best as his reader, but really, there’s this line between character and companion that we can never fully understand. This line mirrors his own initial experiences with Yoo Joonghyuk; at the start, YJH is only ever a character to him until he learns to see him as a person.

Basically, what I’m trying to say is that we don’t know 100% of Kim Dokja either. In the epilogue, Kim Dokja is split into two parts: 49, the part that his companions know, and 51, the part that we know. The part that’s been telling the story. ORV is so brilliant because it engages with us, the reader, as part of the story too. We further its thematic arcs through engaging with it; KDJ is to us as YJH is to KDJ, and that line between character and personhood is further exemplified through this. There’s a sort of hypocrisy there, in criticizing YSA, if, like me, you really only wanted 51 to be happy again.

HSY and YJH’s character arcs make me go wild because they recognize that nobody can ever truly know 100% of a person. They don’t care; they want all of him back anyway. This is all just to say ORV truly is the greatest found family love story ever written.

Gotta love Yokomizo Jugo. It doesn't matter if he's solving a case, talking to the kids or his brother or realises that everything he said is wrong. His face is just a mask of sheer and utter boredom and/ or judgement and I've gotta love his complete attitude that screams "I don't give a shit"

Look at him, he's so unbothered eventhough he's standing right next to the corpse.

Is he accusing her friend of possibly being the murder? Yes.

Does he give a shit? Absolutely no.

But just as well, he really doesn't care that a primary school student was cleverer than him. He just does his job.

Dude, you're literally solving the case. At least try to show some emotions.

Can you see that? That's his "Fuck it, case solved, I'm out, bitches" face

Honey, you've just been proved wrong by a bunch of kids and an old guy. At least try to look bothered.

#detective conan #detco #case closed #conan edogawa #edogawa conan #jugo yokomizo #yokomizo jugo #detective boys #seashell hunt case #volume 51 #he's like 'Fuck it I'm out' and I love him for that #btw it's in german because i only have the german versions #resting bitch face #period

After watching the entierty of evo in the span of three days, i have come to the conclusion that grian did not become a watcher, but he did go and visit them, detroyed their doors, and then proceeded to beat the shit out of all of them for stealing his shit, and putting obsidan on his chest, I mean whats a god to a non believer am i right

#i can't believe i watched 51 grian video for this conclusion #my man was enraged at them #good for him good for him #he truly has a main character syndrome tho #imagine only being a grian watcher tho #and believing that Solidarity gaming's name was Timothy for years #smille mumble #evo smp #evolution smp #grian #hermitcraft

so i'm at my mom's and i decide to round up all the naruto volumes we have in the house (currently i've found 37, 45, 50, 51, 53, 54, 56, 58, and 60) bc that's where my brain is these days and i flipped through 'em a bit and like.

ok so in volume 53 (the birth of naruto) there's a flashback to the kyuubi attack and a bunch of people dying. we see naruto's parents (mostly kushina) monologue to him pre-kicking it, we see iruka's parents giving their lives for him, and then there's kurenai's dad.

"you're a girl so make sure you live long enough to give me grandkids" bro i hope the kyuubi got you and i hope it hurt

#naruto #we never see him again like. ever #i think he showed up in one of the databooks or something and that's why we know his name but. dude wtf #iruka's parents: it's a parent's duty to sacrifice their lives for their child #naruto's parents: we love you so much #kurenai's dad: make sure u live long enough to get knocked up #like i know it's meant to be referring to the fact that she was pregnant in canon at that point but like #the scene is set up in a way that implies that he's gonna die and that's the only thing we see him say to his daughter #what the hell man #also it's really sad that sasuke goes from genuinely caring about his teammates in vol 45 to what happens in vol 51 #like both times with karin specifically #when amaterasu hits her juugo just goes ''well she's fucked the rest of us should go right now bye karin'' #meanwhile sasuke cares so hard he figures out how to stop the fire that's whole thing is not being stoppable #then when danzou grabs her he's just. nah girl ur too slow fuck u #i mean i know a lot's been going on but yeesh man #like he saves her at least once (maybe twice? not super clear) in vol 50 #so. idk maybe seeing danzou's arm pushed him over the edge #naruto shippuden

Twitter likes to use that photo of Louis sitting in the background with Krystle and Helen as proof of something because Krupa deleted it right away but you can see there is someone between Krystle and Louis. Helen is stading and Krystle looks like she is leaning he body away from area Louis is sitting while someone is giving Louis a joint or cig. Unless she is 6ft long then she shouldnt be seen on the other side of Helen while also having her hand near Louis with the cig. Louis is holding said person arm while they are passing it https://www.tumblr.com/dreamings-free/705279583177555968/lt-tour-backline-tech-mike-krupa-instagram?source=share

So why wouldn’t it make sense if Louis was dating Helene… right? I mean, they spend a lot of their time together, and she works for him, and they’re seen hanging out outside of work, which seems to be the only evidence that Louis is dating Krystle too.

#this is entirely sarcastic #but no one pairs louis and Helene because she’s 51 and Krystle is around louis’ age #they love to assume because Krystle is a young leggy brunette that Louis is fucking her #but there is only ONE young leggy brunette that he’s into #who’s name starts with H and ends with Arry #anon #answered
