#literal child in this case

[thatexygurl]

there's so many things in tsc that just come at you all at once, so it's hard to focus on just one thing to break down, but the most glaring thing that stood out to me is how hard it is to really put someone back together. especially someone so shattered that it's nigh impossible to glue them back and pray they don't crumble under your ministrations.

if jean is neil's foil, then jeremy is andrew's direct antithesis. whereas andrew is a steady bedrock because he's been broken too many times to know how to weather the storm, jeremy is too soft hands and an even softer soul. he cares and cares and cares. so empathetic and so gentle it almost breaks your heart. you pray for the impossibility that jeremy can survive knowing the truth because if he doesn't, then what hope does jean have? so you pray he can be steady too. that he can weather the storm as well. that he will not break when knowing that just under the surface lies shark-infested waters.

but then you remember the beginning. "even knowing everything could go completely sideways, you'd make that choice every time"

in every other universe, jean has not survived. but in every other universe, he did not have the trojans.

#aftg #all for the game #tsc #the sunshine court #im chewing through the wall in case anyone hasn't noticed #theres a...belief in me #that everything ive just read in the past few days wont sink in until it's too late to come back from #i cant even think about jean's abuse too clearly because literally what the fuck #a monstrous child cant even describe it #and oh my god jeremy jeremy + the trojans #the most normal people to ever normal #with normal lives #stresses #and normal problems #hate that for jean he's totally a fish in a sea of lambs #i cant believe this is still a sports drama #what the fuck. literally what the fuck. #tsc spoilers #jeremy knox #jean moreau

Everyone wants Dazai to be the ignored middle child or the exhausted elder daughter but he is quite literally the doted on youngest sibling. Man was literally Mori's favorite with the guy even leaving a spot open for a mafia deserter. Obviously I'm exaggerating because he is still deeply unwell however, Yosano was the oldest daughter who got out kicking and screaming. Chuuya has always been forced to be the oldest daughter in every organisation. And Dazai is the depressed youngest kid who manages to get out of things better than the rest.

#disclaimer because I keep seeing people take the oldest child trope too seriously and arguing how they suffered more and were the youngest #these are tropes #not real world cases #Q is the ignores middle child. The kid is literally locked away for good.

Do you think Dvalin ever felt horrible about himself, how his wounds and the poison left permanent marks on his form, left him feeling like he's lost his former lustre

And Venti reassuring him still, "you're so beautiful," always looking at him like nothing could compare

#genshin impact #I was writing my artist's statement for a plate and just started crying over these two again #LIKE!!! #Venti being one of those parents that think their child is the most beautiful creature in existence #except in his case it's true xjxvddjgcjv #like literally every time he's mentioned in descriptions it's always mentioned how beautiful Dvalin is #the most dazzling of gems

okay folks, it’s Katie Rose Clarke appreciation time.

she is an absolute icon. i’m telling you, she was born to play Glinda. she is one of few actors i’ve seen who highlight the stark difference in Glinda’s life in Act One and Two so well. i mean the difference between her Popular and Thank Goodness is CRAZY.

not only that, but she’s played alongside SO MANY elphaba’s, yet brings something different and refreshing to the role every time she’s alongside someone new. and that’s not easy, considering that she’s literally the longest running Glinda (on Broadway? in total? not completely sure but she’s played this role a lot).

she’s utterly hilarious but she’s also completely heartbreaking, soul twisting, gut wrenching, whatever other words you wanna use i ran out. the emotions are so raw, you can tell she loves this role and she loves her job. if you haven’t seen her perform anything (not even just wicked. her light in the piazza performance is astounding.) RUN your little legs over to youtube and search her name because she’s SO GOOD.

anyway long story short i love KRC and you should too.

#katie rose clarke #she is my wife #don’t argue with me #i love her so much #i don’t care that she’s already married with three children #CHRIS IM COMING FOR YOU #i’d literally sell my firstborn child and my right big toe to see her perform anything live #i’d give my soul to the devil to see as glinda though #that slime tutorial is my life i think i’ve watched it more than any other video ever #i literally have multiple versions saved in case one gets taken down

Keith walking into the holding cell greeting all the regulars by name while Lance is sobbing lamenting that his life is over and his future is ruined (they were like. Trespassing or some shit he’s going to be fine)

lance: (actively dry heaving in the corner, on the verge of a panic attack as he imagines having a permanent record)(actually what does a permanent record even look like?)(omg is he going to have to go to COURT? like in JUDGE JUDY?)

keith: remy, this is lance. lance, this is remy, she’s my favorite alcoholic :)

#voltron #klance #honestly I imagine they got caught trespassing while ghost hunting #if they’re in Texas then they will most likely get a full on misdemeanor on their record. Texas is very big on property rights. #trespassing can quickly elevate to criminal charges in texas it is actually very serious. do not trespass in texas. #meanwhile in Maine trespassing can be just an infraction & not added to your record #like sure they're teenagers so they could get their records sealed or expunged when they're 18. but like. the garrison would know. not good #sorry i just like talking about the law #speaking of which let me go on a tangent #i do think keith frequently gets charged with trespassing. at his own shack in the desert. #and so now he is Really good at juvenile law specifically because he is constantly arguing with cops #keith: this is not trespassing. my dad owned this property & he died unmarried without a will. #keith: i am literally his child and i inherited this land after his death YOU CAN'T ARREST ME FOR TRESPASSING ON MY OWN PROPERTY. #cop: okay well the house is all burned down it's a safety hazard #keith: I AM NOT IN THE HOUSE I AM IN THE SHACK WHICH MEETS MINIMUM SAFETY REQUIREMENTS.

Think about characters that the show tends to portray as innocent and chill but still 100% know Conan is Not who he pretends to be. Jodie should by now at least strongly suspect Conan is Shinichi. We have seen she's not a bad detective (in figuring out Akai faked his death), she knows Vermouth has stayed young for 20+ years and she heard her talking to Haibara at the docks, so she could probably do some research and put two and two together. Like by now she should know. Maybe she's just not addressing it to protect him?

And then there's Takagi. He doesn't have half the information Jodie does, but come on. After the "who are you" scene in the elevator???? Being answered he'll tell him in the afterlife and ending up not getting a reply???? And then moving on like nothing happened???? Like you gotta admit. Something weird must've happened inside his brain. How do you even justify that. "Maybe he's the spirit protector of cops incarnate I'd better do as he says and act natural lest he casts a Curse upon me" or some shit similar. Surely not Shinichi Kudo shrunk by a criminal organisation that would be too weird.

#detective conan #jodie starling #wataru takagi #I meant to explain this with a drawing but you're getting a text post #jodie when Conan acts like that: it is clear that he has a connection with the organisation with how he acts #and the way they called his lil friend Sherry. and there's no way a literal child would get a codename so maybe they're not children at all. #I heard they were experimenting with pharmaceuticals or something maybe that's how. if Vermouth can stay young for this long #this is a viable hypothesis. but anyway if that's the case it's clear I'd better keep my trap shut and keep acting as always.“ #Takagi when Conan acts Like That: he's an oni and if I let anyone know he'll eat my head #OR SOMETHING #not saying takagi is dumb but some things simply can't be rationalized #I need this to be addressed!!!!!!! I need the show to take these characters a lil seriously please god I'm begging!!!!!!

can you explain what happened like i'm 5? i may be stupid

noooo you're not, i feel like you're just the only person brave enough to ask fjksjds there's a LOT going on here so i don't mind explaining at all!!

first i'll explain what happened from griffin's point of view on february 3rd, 1982…. he's been saving money up without his parents knowing, because he plans to run away in the next few months. on this day, his mom finds the money and realizes that griffin wants to leave. she becomes inconsolable and tells richard about the money. he thinks griffin stole the money from him (which is ridiculous because we know griffin JUST bailed him out of jail with money richard didn't have; he could've just left him there), and a large argument ensues. his dad hits him, his mom is throwing things around and falling to the floor crying, it's just a huge mess. lucy throws a plate and it shatters on griffin's face. this is the last straw for him. he just can't take it anymore. he grabs the gun they keep in the pantry, knowing his parents always keep it loaded for home security (more on that later). he points it at his dad and warns him to step back, but richard outright laughs at him and keeps approaching him. griffin THINKS he racks the gun, but, being a kid in an insanely stressful situation, he didn't apply enough force to pull it all the way back, meaning there's no round in the chamber, so when he pulls the trigger (and he does actually pull the trigger) the gun does not go off. at that point, richard yanks it out of his hands and threatens to kill him if he ever tries something like that again, but griffin wouldn't have tried again – he was horrified at his own behavior. this is the major turning point in griffin's life and it's one of the biggest factors in causing his death.

(side note, in the universe where we saw griffin as an inmate, that was the incident that first landed him in jail -- in that universe, he pulled the slide just a little more forcefully, and he killed his dad. but he was only 12, and the abuse he suffered was an additional consideration, so he spent most of his time in a psychiatric hospital until he aged out. he committed more crimes later on though.)

(side SIDE note, this is why in the 90s verse griffin was warned to never touch his dad's shotgun again, which he did not listen to, meaning this event still took place for him.)

okay, so now here's what happened from finn's point of view (as in ghost finn, our finn, asa's finn, you know the one): this is one of the worst moments of finn's entire life, and just thinking about it makes him feel furious. anytime he needs to draw strength from his emotions, he revisits this memory to make himself angry. he successfully used this incident to save asa's life many years ago, and it's implied that he did the same thing to get himself out of the nowhere many years before that. so, naturally, when finn got separated from asa, his first idea was to revisit this memory to fuel his anger. only, it didn't work this time. this time, he doesn't feel angry, he feels sad and ashamed because this isn't who he is anymore. he finds himself trapped in an endless loop, forced to watch it happen over and over again. he starts thinking that this is Hell with a capital H, an eternal punishment for what he's done. when he sees asa, he's horrified because he thinks it means asa has died and gone to Hell -- something finn can't even fathom.

okay, now from ASA'S perspective…. we find out that he knew about this incident all along. he heard and saw everything that finn begged him not to. all this time, he's been reassuring finn that he's a good person, deserving of love, that he was just a kid and he's allowed to find happiness, etc. all along, he knew that finn had pulled the trigger intending to kill his father. yet he still believed every word he said. he still believes finn is inherently good. asa would have taken this to the grave if he could; he thought it would only cause finn more pain to know that asa knows.

asa truly believes that this incident is just a memory, so he tries to prove it by attempting to interact with the memory, but he's caught off guard when richard, lucy, and griffin actually see him. they're all so shocked by this supposed home intruder that they fall silent, something finn knows is not normal for this memory, so he gets up to find asa. richard has the gun now because he'd ripped it out of griffin's hands. asa thinks the gun is empty because he knows griffin pulled the trigger and it didn't go off, but finn obviously knows the truth: it would only take a few seconds to fire. he also knows that this is the exact reason his dad bought the gun in the first place, for home defense in the event of a break in (to be fair, this is not that implausible considering the company their family kept at this point) so richard is 100% prepared to use deadly force against asa, who he thinks just broke into his house.

bonus: finn's reaction makes me really sad. we've SEEN the lengths he'll go to to protect asa in the past... but when it comes to his father, he mostly freezes up. he's even physically hiding behind asa :(

#interesting thought.... what would happen if griffin was still holding the gun when asa walked in #his dad would definitely try to get him to shoot asa but i don't think he'd do it no matter how hard he was pressured to #also i know literally nothing about guns i just read a bunch of forum posts so please do correct me if anything is incorrect!! #i saved the text psds in case i need to fix something in that post fjksjds #anonymous #asks #nonsims #brandi answers #abuse tw #child abuse tw #guns tw

question does it count as mischaracterization if i'm still figuring out their voices

no dw abt that bbg.. let me tell you a funny story actually. i always watch anime in sub so i was stuck imagining chuuya's voice as childe's from genshin impact bc that's who he imprinted on me as. he sounded so FINE in my head while i was reading the manga like woah goddamn no wonder everyone wants this bitch😍😍 and then i started a rewatch w my friend who watches exclusively in dub and we got to ep9 and i was so HYPED to hear this man's voice and then he opened his mouth and my gag reflex KICKED IN. UTTERLY REPULSED.

#mf literally sounds like a child predator #why does he clench his teeth while he talks like damn bro loosen up a little hating dazai isn't your entire personality😭 #bro sounds like he's recovering from a rly bad case of strep and trying to finish his sentence w/o coughing #man is STRAINING 💔💔 #lotus’s asks

chiluc week 2022 @chilucexchange

day 3 prompts: delusion | sun/moon au challenge: include a promise

open for better quality | no reposts | ID under the cut

[Image description: A five page comic portraying a fight between Childe and Diluc in Snezhnaya. The text boxes follow the Snezhnayan rhyme about pinkie promises and there is a brief interruption for dialogue.

On the first page, there is a flashback to Childe and Diluc making a pinkie promise. The panels then cut to Childe running at Diluc with his hydro blades, succesfully hitting Diluc’s Wolf’s Gravestone away. The text boxes read, “You make a pinkie promise, you keep it all your life. You break a pinkie promise-”

On the second page, Childe stands looking down at Diluc, who is unarmed and clutching at his side. They stand on the ice with snowy mountains and a cloudy sky behind them. The Wolf’s Gravestone stands in the foreground, stuck in the ice which cracks around it. Childe then brings a hydro blade up to Diluc’s neck. The text reads, “I throw you on the ice. The cold will kill the pinkie that once betrayed your friend-”

On the third page, there are black panels and a panel of Childe staring down at Diluc without any sympathy in his eyes. The text reads, “the frost will freeze your tongue off...” Childe tells Diluc, “Sorry. Tsaritsa’s orders. As one last act of kindness, do you have any last words?”

On the fourth page, Diluc looks up at Childe with a conflicted expression. “Just tell me one thing,” he says. “Did you ever love me?” Childe is silent for a moment. Then he responds, “No.” The bottom panel shows Diluc in shock.

On the fifth page, Childe swings upward with his hydro blade in preparation to slash it down on Diluc. “Never,” he says. His expression is not visible. The last panel is black and finishes the Snezhnayan rhyme: “...so you never lie again.”]

#chilucweek2022 #childe #tartaglia #diluc #chiluc #genshin impact #genshin #fanart #myart #comic #here's the angst :) #i took the literal interpretation of the prompt bc i expect everyone else to go with vision/delusion #there were two routes i was planning on going with this #1. the lie was that childe really never loved diluc #therefore he felt no remorse complying with his orders #this is the route i drew #2. the lie was that childe loved diluc but he said otherwise during their final confrontation #as in. childe would rather be hated than watch someone he loves struggle painfully to save him #in that case i would have added an extra panel showing childe flinching or smth during the dialogue #but i couldn't find a way to add it in while thumbnailing so here we are #enjoy the once-in-a-blue-moon angst no comfort <3

[nat-20s]

my general feelings on the whole "happy ending vs sad ending" debate I occasionally see is mostly "nice dichotomy idiot, what lies outside it!" aka an ending should make sense to a show. It should fit the context that has been given before it. I think neither happy nor sad endings are inherently better than the other and I LOVE a bittersweet ending. All that being said for me, personally, I do think a massively tragic ending requires more of a buy in for me. Heavy Plot Contrivances to make a sad ending tend to annoy me at best while Heavy Plot Contrivances allowing for characters to have fun and be happy I'm like hell yeah let's go. Escape the dooming of the narrative <3.

#again this is literally just my personal experience i get how that would not be the case for everyone #like idk theres a lot of shows ive seen with bullshit deaths #and not in like 'a pointless death is core to the type of narrative we're telling' kind of way #but in an oh well the actor wanted to leave we'll just kill em #and im like seriously???? #i think this is also why the timeless child arc i was like ugggghhh but the bi-generation plot i was like yeah!! woo!!!! #tho..now that the doctor is being like forced to Reckon with the timeless child stuff more i am more intrigued ill give em that
