The math just adds up!

#dungeon meshi #falin touden #marcille donato #farcille #I always loved how chapter 27 ends with them both so bloody and 28 starts with them in the bath. #not just because of how iconic the bathtub moment is but because you know they had to scrap off so much gore first. #I think everyone in the party took a very long and methodical bath but Falin was basically *all* blood*. #Being covered in blood is one of those 'just girly things' that women deserve to stop being shamed about. #I just don't think Chilchuck is progressive enough. He probably made them take a bath first B*/ #Okay jestering aside I want to just highlight - #The magnitude of Marcille's joy at seeing her dearest friend again! Of holding her and sharing her presence in the same room! #Something about this reunion feels like a beautiful dream you are afraid of waking up from...

Just finished a manga called I Had That Same Dream Again and wow. Its only 12 chapters but it fucking hits like a brick. (Spoilers below)

Uhm it had no resson to go that hard?!?!

Im curious who they all were, were they future verisons of her? Or someone else. Where they ghosts or spirits? Or something else?

It seemed to me as they (the 3 friends) were the same (ish) person just at different point of their life.

When Skank/Tramp/Abazure-san (ive seen 3 different translations for her nickname), Minami and the Grandma all disapeared it was just so sad. They had fufilled their roles and it was their time to say goodbye but still

Also the plane crash mentioned in the final chapter has something to do with minami but admitedly im having trouble figuring it out. Did she die in the plane crash? Or wait did her parent die in the plane crash?

After looking at the discussion about this manga it seems that her friends were futrure versions of herself that had made a "mistake"

Anyway read it. If you reading this now i insist you read it. Its beautiful

Life is like tumblr...a hellhole

However,

Life is like tumblr...people care about each other, joke and laugh. There's a variety of people

And finally....

What's your happiness?

I had a dream-

So, basically, in my dream. I was playing a horror game with my favorite TADC characters, Kinger, Gangle, and Jax, and my boyfriend. Then Jax was trying to mass with me. For some reason my first thought was to tickle him so i did.

"Hey sweethear- hahahahahahahaha!"

He was begging me to stop it but we were standing, he could have easily walked away. Anyways, we were just tickling each other on the ground but it was so cute to me i remember it when i can barely remember that fnaf world used to be a thing.

#tadc art #tadc jax #tadc fanart #tadc #the amazing digital circus #sfw tickling community #sfw tk community #sfw twords #he probably liked it #he also kicked me in the stomach and for some reason #he had claws #and it hurt- #in the same dream #i was back with my toxic stepdad #at least i could technically see my step sisters again #i miss them

Probably not the smartest move right before Angeltober, but I got Baldur's Gate 3. It's very fun so far!

Here is my Tav, she is a drow cleric named Charity. She was found and adopted by a cleric of Kelemvor and raised in a convent. Charity never knew her biological parents. Her name comes from being called that cleric's "charity case" and then the name Charity stuck.

#as part of Charity's backstory I imagined a formative moment for her was when one of her fellow orphans in the convent started a fire #and Charity stopped her but she was subsequently killed #And now that girl haunts Charity as her dream guardian (not sure what role the dream guardian plays yet but this is what I had in mind) #I gave the dream guardian a scar and then what a surprise when Charity met Shadowheart and she had the same scar! #in my head Charity just had to save her after seeing that #if I make Charity again for a Durge playthrough either it's a version of her that went bonkers after the fire and killing her cough gal pal #Or it's Charity who was raised by her drow parents (who I imagine might still be alive somewhere in canon!) #OR it might be the friend who instead kills Charity... #anyway I've been rotating her all night #I want her to have the energy of a cute kittycat with big huge pupils because she is in murder mode <3 #bg3 #baldur's gate 3

Having a paracosm for 7ish years has spoiled me. Trying to not only start but keep a new paracosm going is just. insanely difficult. who are you people what is going on why am I here. all boring answers till everything gets some real development i hate it so much.

#paraportal #system: eternal labyrinth #system: dream a little dream of me #decided to start fleshing out my secondary paracosm universe. which doesnt have a lot going for it #its basically just the scraps of whatever i couldnt fit in eternal labyrinth somehow #like yeah brain...a shitty r0tg rewrite fanfic/au will save us from boredom. sure. why not. #i mean ive had morphues for a while so its nice to put him in action again (same w cloud). #and harper seems cool so far i guess #idk my cosms have v broad concepts (phanta - video games / maac - superheroes/comic books / ff - fairytales) #and daldom is dreams . so far. so i just gotta figure out a way to work w it #maybe add some scifi since i dont typically do that kind of stuff #this'll probably just be like. the opposite of what i typically do/like. just to add some spice yknow.

TAKE A PEEK #anyways last night i was once again doing a wiki deep dive and i found some silly things on cp9's pages #JABRA AND LUCCI ARE THE SAME HEIGHT!!!!! THIS IS SO FUCKING FUNNY #CAN YOU IMAGINE?!?!?! the kid you've had beef with since he was 13 (maybe even earlier since lucci alreayd knew him when he was 6) who you #used to have a whole head over is now at eye level with you i would actually be so embarrased #KAKU IS FROM EAST BLUE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THIS IS OS IMPORTANT ACTUALLY!! THE MOST IMPORATNT FACT EVER!!!!!!!!!!! #so he knows the strawhats are...also from the east blue right?!? right??????! and ik the wg steals these kids early on to train them so i #doubt he has lingering attachments to his home sea but i still think this so both so so sad and so important :'(( #also not getting over how oda's depiction of tiny kaku has him holding a toy boat BC ARE YOU KIDDING ME!!?! ARE YOU K IDDING ME #kalifa and jabra's favourite dishes are both lamb based!!!!!!!!! silly because her animal motif is a sheep haha #BUT ALSO considering how her father was also cp9 and she's probably been conditioned since birth to also follow his footsteps and how jabra #holds seniority in the current lineup id like to think that these two have known each other a very long time and there were influences #the most dysfunctional fcked up family ever. cp9 #blueno and jabra are both from the north blue!!!!!!!!!!!!! and that one falshbakc we see that the two of them plus 6year old lucci trained #together but also it would be so fcked up if the two actually knew of each other before being roped into the governemnt #idk how the wg works do they just??? routinely scout around and pick up a bunch of kids ata time???? were jabra and blueno taken together?? #also wondering if ... kalifa jabra and kumadori knew each other the longest as fellow agents or soemthing #i feel like im entertaining a gazillion thoughts all at once its so hard ot balance but we know both kalifa nad kumadori have #parents in the governemnt/assassin profession that also influenced them right #idk maybe one thing they can bond over #cp9 to me is just a fucked up family of some sort. they are not found family they are like some weird forged family where they were all #forced together and somehow made it work and they all love lucci and care for his wellbeing enough to raise all that money to get him to a #doctor and they cared about each other enough to get off enies lobby together without leaving anyone behind and they went cafe hopping and #shopping and bowling together and they all care for each other in their own way

Alas, this beautiful dream could not last.

#dungeon meshi #falin touden #dungeon meshi spoilers #better drawn mdzs #(<- my higher effort art tag. I need to get a new one.) While it's different from my usual style I really loved how this came out! #Strolling back to the art scene to remind everyone I am still a lover of botanicals. #I had a blast with the symbolism for this one: #White lilium longiflorum (easter lily) for rebirth. Purple hyacinthus orientalis for sorrow and forgiveness. #Red spider lily (Lycoris radiata) for loss and death. #'Rebirth into something new' is so well done in Dungeon Meshi. She is back but she is not the same. #The last few episodes/chapters gives her this dreamy quality to her. As if she's not quite real. She's so perfect in their memories. #And as we know of dreams - no matter how sweet- they must end once we wake up. #It is so painful to lose someone twice. To see someone you loved in a dream and wake up and remember that loss again. #Dungeon Meshi being a grief allegory is important to me. I'll explain more as the story continues B'*)

My controversial and long-winded Willow/Tara thoughts

I honestly don't mind, narratively speaking, that Tara was killed. Obviously I love Tara with all my heart and was devastated when she died but I keep trying to see another way forward for Willow's arc and... I can't? Honestly I think this would have been Oz's fate had he not been written off because Seth Green had to leave.

I also think that nowadays we're very conscious of the "bury your gays" trope and there's obviously a lot to criticise about this when it's gratuitous. But especially given what Willow and Tara represented at the time... It was a different world in terms of LGBT representation. It's common knowledge that they had to fight for the onscreen kiss in The Body, the fact that a main character was even portrayed in a lesbian relationship at all on a show like Buffy was groundbreaking. All that being said, I personally don't think Tara's death was gratuitous.

The only other permadeath of a Scooby love interest until the finale is Jenny Calendar, and you can definitely make a case here for the "killing off a female love interest for manpain" trope but where would S2 be without Jenny's death? Like it just doesn't make sense without it. Passions is the moment where the stakes of the series as a whole suddenly explode into astronomical new levels. Sure, Giles could have been a woman and Jenny a man, but that also undercuts many of the themes and ideas behind the Giles+Buffy relationship and the Watchers in general.

Similarly, from the moment Willow's use of magic was introduced, EVERYTHING in her arc was leading up to Dark Willow. We got a taste of it in S5 but if the show had ended there it would never have actually reached a true conclusion. She's not punished for her Dark Moment, she's rewarded. It would have gone unresolved, and the looming threat of Willow turning to the dark side would have been hanging over the heads of the surviving Scoobies forever. Tara being mind sucked by Glory feels like a sort of... idk hasty first attempt at killing her thematically (an idea that was obviously in the works) except that her death in S5 would undercut those of Joyce and Buffy. So it's natural to resolve this in S6.

The reason I think Tara had to die for Dark Willow to emerge is that we're shown that Willow needs a grounding presence to keep her from losing control. Her 'darkest moments' almost all occur when she feels abandoned. When Oz cheats on her in S4 she tries to curse him and Veronica, when he leaves Something Blue ensues. When Tara is mind-sucked she goes apeshit on Glory. When Buffy dies she does the resurrection spell. When she and Tara fight in S6 she uses magic to make her forget, the subsequent breakup causes her to spiral. Like this is a HUGE pattern for Willow.

Oz and Tara function fairly similarly in that they are stabilising presences that pull Willow back from the brink, and so nothing short of the complete, permanent removal of Tara could force her to completely go over the edge. She couldn't have "just left" because that leaves the glimmer of hope that, like Oz, she will return. She had to die and Willow had to try and fail to bring her back.

Obviously it's not a pleasant thing. But it's just... Idk, it's narratively cohesive for me. It's so far from being even close to the worst moral failing of the writers in that single episode, let alone the series as a whole. The reason it stings so much is because Tara's death wasn't just shock value, she was a character that made a lasting impact on the show and had visible effects on characters outside of Willow (mostly Dawn and Buffy but still) so even though she was doomed from the start I don't think it's a case of a lesbian character being gratuitously killed off for angst. I get that it's a touchy subject but I also don't think it's accurate to paint every single instance of a gay character dying as 'bury your gays' when it's not necessarily so.

Anyway. There's a lot to criticise about Buffy but this isn't a personal gripe of mine- even as someone for whom Tara and her relationship with Willow was deeply and personally important at the time.

#and again i think Oz would have suffered the exact same fate if he had stayed #what there IS no excuse for is kennedy. like lol. what #even though i def had a sex dream about kennedy as a teen 😭😭😭😭 #but even kennedy is not like... an ethically bad choice it's just bad writing #btvs thoughts #btvs #there's also an argument that giving gay characters plot armour just to avoid bury ur gays is not ... really that progressive #like i was furious about clexa and stopped watching the 100. but also the exact same thing happened to finn earlier in the show #and lexa's death is fairly pivotal. it's not like she isn't given importance. idk im not sure about that one
