#if I do that then I've won life

[askblueandviolet]

DF: I think at this rate these two disasters are going to have their wedding/official demonic mates thing when the fic series hits the Bible word count.

We are at 480,000+ words for the series, and the Bible is 780,000+ words. It is, entirely possible, considering my painstakingly slow pace for developing the relationship between these two.

300,000+ more words to go... sighs...

The slow burn hurts me too, believe it or not guys (⁠´⁠；⁠ω⁠；⁠｀⁠). But we'll get there, probably, if I can keep up the motivation somehow.

#updates for the fic may be more inconsistent from now on with how my life is like now #the weekly schedule will probably stay but there will be more periods where I will have to take a hiatus #but I still have faith I will be able to write this damn wedding/offical demon mates thing within a year #I really do think it would be funny if I wrote a bible's worth of shadowpuppet fanfiction #this would be my life's achievement #if I do that then I've won life

#was just thinking about this scene #that line always hits like a truck #she asked him 'have you no pride as a hero?' #and now he answers 'no. just like you my life ended with pain and grief and regret. so that's all i am.' #just with that. just with 'i should never have become a hero.' #just like she believes she should have never become king. #i've always been curious as to the specifics of their relationship in archer's timeline #but part of me will always think he says this apologetically #you were my partner and my sword and my greatest ally #you fought for me and bled for me and won me my wish #and what did i do with it #what did it mean at the end of it all #when we both ended up in the same wretched and lifeless hill of swords #that's all my life was so now this is all i know how to do #ubw man ubw wrecks you no matter what #fsn spoilers #ubw spoilers

he's so important to me

#i guess i need to watch the anime but super's manga has just been a self-indulgent fever dream for me from start to finish #100000/10 absolutely perfect so validating so extremely catered to my tastes and headcanons and analyses and humor #so fucking funny and emotional and intense and goofy and beautifully drawn #my beautiful son getting to finally fucking see his HARD won character growth fucking shine and choose love and choose to be loved!!!!!! #Goku just being Goku Vegeta being Team Dad Piccolo being Team Grandpa Bulma being a fucking superstar keeping everybody organized and fed #god i love this squad i love this series i love these dumbasses and their struggles and their triumphs and their stupid childish bonding #I love that Toriyama just spent the last several years reminding the class that DB as a whole has always been an ACTION-COMEDY about LOVE #and I'm SO sad that the z anime really never did it justice in that sense because of having to fill time with dramatic tension but god. GOD #THE MANGA HAS ALWAYS BEEN SO CLEAR ON THAT THESIS. #Just all about Restorative Justice and Community and CARING even when you wish SO MUCH that you didn't care but yoU DO GODDAMMIT!!! #SUCH a great series I'm so sad it took losing mr t for me to finally read it but my god I needed to read it now and I'm so glad he wrote it #and i'm SO glad he wrote it Exactly Like This #once again rip to a legend i'm caught up and crying it's so perfect it's SO everything I've wanted to see onscreen and embedded in canon #and canon isn't everything but it still feels gREAT to be SO 1:1 on the same page with an author re: how you interpret your blorbo yknow??? #been rotating this man in my head for 25 years and Mr Toriyama just mWAH kissed me on the forehead about it #anyway enough tag rambles I'm off again aklsjla #bonus for that kenpachi shit and letting him say 'sorry dude I can't be cold and numb anymore but this is still cathartic as fuck lol' like #mr t i hope you see the HIGHEST tier of heaven for that (and obviously for like everything all of it the whole life you led)

i wanted to share this video i found of jannik and translate it too for those who don't speak italian because i am soooo fond of this jannik... low voice, talking about how he loves spending time with fans, being happy about milan winning, smiling almost shyly, joking.

for context this was after the first round at roland garros in 2022 and it was right after milan won the league (scudetto) for the first time in 11 years so obviously it was very special and you can clearly see it in jannik's eyes <3

#jannik sinner #tennis #jannik #nico.png #he looks kinda sleepy ?? even his voice ?? like just got out of bed #does that make sense.......... #anyway this video makes me melt i swear #and it brings back happy memories of when we won the scudetto <3 (but also </3) #nico.translations #i guess new tag ????? #i'm sorry i know this translation isn't the best i am Not very good at translating #but i've been thinking of getting better at it by practicing so i thought this would be a good chance to do just that #ALSO i had the whole thing written in a file so i could put the transcription on this post under a read more AND THEN THE PROGRAM CRASHED #i hate my life . will re-transcript it tomorrow and add it i'm Very sorry my shoulder hurts like hell rn lmao #okay enough. enjoy our guy <3

I was having. A very lovely day. Had a few things planned to work on in the afternoon. Then my stepdad tried to push me on the topic of AI out of nowhere. After a bit I ended up chewing him out and he just laughed the entire time because of how angry and scared I was by the topic. I was having such a good fucking day why'd it have to get tainted like that.

#He also last year before ai art became a thing tried to push me to go to college for programming/coding instead of animation #Said that it's “a very profitable upcoming field” #Didn't care that I had been very very openly doing art the entire time he's known me and been very vocal about wanting to be an animator #And now with AI and this fucking nightmarish hellscape we live in he feels like he won some kind of argument in regards to that #Also having the audacity to laugh in my face about something that's threatening the field I've been working towards #My Entire Life #And one of the only things that still brings me some semblance of joy #Is incredible insulting as well as off-putting and dismissive

Hate it when you're friends with an artist and then you have a falling out. Not because I miss that art specifically (though I usually do), but when their art crosses my dash again I get a spike of anxiety. It may not even be THEIR art, just their character or artstyle mimicry, and the anxiety returns all the same.

It's an instant reminder of what happened- all the negative outweighs the positive, in the end.

#dimond speaks #sorry this is pessimistic there's just been a lot of that recently #there was an art competition in the SU fandom a while back and my abuser won #seeing his art on my dash again- even though i'd blocked him in any way i could- got me SO BAD man #but even aside from him seeing other artists i've had a bad falling out with just leaves me feeling terrible #i miss you guys but i also know there's no going back #nor would i really want to if i seriously asked myself that #by some WILD chance any of y'all are reading this... i hope you're doing better. #to my abuser specifically: i hope you feel better. i hope you're able to see clearer and have found a better life. #i just wish i could block specific art pieces without looking at them lol

Fuck this cesspit country. I want to go home.

#auspol #kerytalk #I have lived here for 25 years #i have a citizenship #but this country has done jack shit for me #all its done is given me ptsd and a genuine fear for my safety if liberal gets back in #I left New Zealand when I was five but I've never been so homesick in my life #btw the racist vote won so haha my faith in humanity for Australia at least is FUCKED #I'm never going outside again what's the point #when you know the majority of the people out there are either racist or too stupid to develop critical thinking skills #I'm just ... done #really hard to not let the su*cidal thoughts eat me when shit like this happens - do not report me I am not a risk to myself #I've been living with them for over 10 years and I'm still kicking #but fuck ... man ...

Y'ALL last night i spent a total of 2 minutes tops on my appearance and then went to a lesbian bar full of attractive people anyway, got up onstage during an event about sharing stories of queer joy, openly wept almost the entire time I was up there, and I STILL managed to give a good performance and come away feeling charming!

And THEN a troupe of improv actors and a pianist put on a short and very sweet sketch based on what I had said about the joy of seeing elder Trans folk in public as a disabled Trans person.

And I hope the queer elder I saw there really felt that love especially. I felt the troupe's performance really did me justice, and it was so beautiful.

But also, y'all, I was still able to crack jokes that got the whole room laughing WHILE I WAS CRYING!!! - A skill I'm just realizing I probably polished while I was in intensive group trauma therapy lol. Shout out to all my fellow IOP/PHP buckaroos in the chat!

and the best part about this little performance of mine? My most favorite-est proudest little detail?

It was easy. It was EASY!?!?!? IT WAS EASY!!!!!!!!!!!!!

As in, the words I wanted came so naturally that I was able to deliver them with excellent timing on split-second judgment!!!!

Do you know what that means to me??? Oh I am so proud of this little Jack here! He who worked so so hard for a thing like that! I worked so much and for so long, and I shall - no, I MUST - celebrate the precious joy and pride of having achieved this childhood dream!

Oh to tell Younger Jack that he would be able to do such a thing one day! That sweet anxious confused child would feel such relief just to know it can be done! What a wonderful victory! It felt so good!

Life is fucking hard and dreams can come and go, but I can say that in this way at least I have become the kind of person I always dreamed I would be. ❤

AND I know that if I had rolled low on my charisma throw [i.e. made a social mistake] - which I have done, often do, and SHALL AGAIN [see profile picture] - I could have brushed it off with the ease of an old actor who knows that performance has only ever been the business of consensually making oneself look like a fool!

.... Or perhaps I would have processed my mistake with the knowledge of a fellow who has been to enough poetry slams to know that a kind and loving audience in a vulnerable safe space generally just responds to a performer's nervousness/awkwardness/difficulty communicating by rooting for them! I knew I was in a space where people wanted to see me do well, and that helped a lot. Bless those people for making that space. ❤❤❤

This post is not focused on my many MANY grateful and loving emotions about elder queers because, as I may have mentioned, I've sort of already expressed a lot of feelings about that for one 24-hour period. 😅

#original #diary #queer joy #autistic joy #I have infinite thoughts on how my social skills are deeply autistic and also deeply good #and how people who have difficulty communicating deserve just as much love and respect as everyone else. #but I've already made posts about that and I'll make some more later #this post is about celebrating something hard-won and deeply precious to me. both as a stage performer and as a social person. #something something social skills are like learning to play video games something something muscle memory #oh man I just felt my sleeping meds hit like two tags ago #okay. goodnight. i wish good things for you. I wish you warm evenings where people you love call you friend and the air is sweet ❤ #- i wrote those tags last night lol #my point stands tho. #I think a lot about how the best way for me to get into the habit of feeling pride over my accomplishments is to do so intentionally #and often repeatedly publicly and loudly. I spent enough of my life in shame. now it's my turn to brag for the rest of my life!!! #and also to lift up my friends and loved ones and community as much as possible!

to all the boys i've loved before !

— genshin men receive your confession letter that you accidentally sent

he doesn't care (HE WON AT LIFE) - albedo, cyno, diluc, neuvillette, tighnari, xiao, scaramouche

His face, although one with his usual stoic expression was now screaming how God had blessed him and when you finally left, apologizing for the inconvenience and asking if he felt the same way. OF COURSE HE DID?! HE LOVES YOU MORE THAN ANY—

"Yeah sure you're okay I guess."

Nailed it. And as your flustered face starts to run away from him, he was now thinking what place will you guys settle in? When will he buy the engagement ring. You know, the expected. After all, there was no way he would give back the heart you gave him.

teases you to oblivion - childe, itto, kaeya, kazuha, lyney, pantalone, heizou, venti, xingqiu,

"Ho ho.... so you like LIKE me?"

He was hiding his red face underneath the words of teasing and fun. Yeah, he liked you back, but where's the thrill? A letter is just... well, a letter. He wanted to hear it from you, he wanted you to say it so many times for it felt like the blood to his heart. He needed this.

And although it may look like he was not taking your confession seriously, he does. Every word you said embedded in his head, and it's a crime for him to let you forget it. He plans to make you remember that silly letter you wrote at 1:43 AM for the rest of your life.

becomes a blushing mess - bennett, chongyun, freminet, gorou, thoma, capitano

When he read the whole thing, the happiness he felt turned to nervous immediately. What do you mean you liked him? Did the manifestations worked or something? Was he finally blessed with this beautiful angel after beng miserable for so long? YOU ACTUALLY LIKE HIM?

He wanted to party! No, but what if you decided to not like him anymore? After all he had many bad qualities. He was panting, frantically, the whole area heard it. YOU heard it. Will that make you like him less? Oh god... oh god... he was sure to admiring you from afar. But this?

"U...uhm I-I also feel the same way..." And with that he ran for his life.

thinks you guys are now married - alhaitham, ayato, baizhu, kaveh, zhongli, wriothesley

Oh so you like him? When's the wedding? He was now thinking of a designer for your wedding fits. After all, his partner deserves the very best. Do you want to be child free? Is there a need for him to make a planned parenthood account? What will your retirement plan be? Do you plan to be buried with him or separate? Thoughts like these raced through his mind.

The letter gripped by his hand, you were afraid to be rejected. And when you were about to speak and confront the silence he moved and folded the paper and put it in his pocket. Next time, it will definitely be a ring.

"See you at 5, sweetheart."
