I would KILL for more XPapyrus and Cross, my fontcest OTP, actually, haha. i love their dynamic, especially with how strained their relationship feels. sometimes the best way to let off steam is a kiss or a hug or who knows what, you know? I like seeing their relationship as less than healthy, more of a coping mechanism to distract from everything around them.
the feeling that they can't trust anyone so might as well trust eachother. they're brothers right? that has to mean SOMETHING...
they have dreams of pursuing a healthier path, but this is all they have, it's something. and they'll take it. the need for affection and love is killer.

(sorry for the rambles haha, hope it's ok)
im so glad there r so many xcest enjoyers........ u share my vision so hard ๐ฅบ๐ฅบ i absolutely adore the strain of their relationship too and it's honestly the only thing keeping me invested in underv/erse.... like don't get me wrong i love the multiverse but that series is alllll abt the xtaIe crew too me!!! and i'm on edge just wondering what will happen when xpap and cross finally meet after soooo long.... OUGHHGGHH </333
like their parting gift was literally xpap trying to pacify his brother, only for him to cut him to pieces in return. i'm looking forward to their reunion and see their mutual grudges. the guilt + regret. and i already know it's gonna be sooooo heartwrenching <- (delusional)
which is why every piece of canon art i see where they are affectionate with each other destroys me inside and out. like ur take on them is soso based omg they would ESPECIALLY during xtaIe itself. have you SEEN how much xpap fights for cross in 21 years. and secret entries gaster says he knows how tight knit they always were just like their classic versions (so much so that they'd be able to raise each other by themselves but he still felt obligated to raise them (WHICH IS. A WHOLE OTHER THING.))
so they would absolutely decieve themselves into believing that even through the hell gaster put them thru they still yearn to be together. because they think it's the only sense of normalcy left after their universe was shattered and discarded, a sans and a pap. i hope xpap feels obligated to betray xgaster so he could be with cross. it's the only kind of happiness left he can ever hope to achieve. and i hope cross feels the most guilt for slaying his own brother for trying to help him.
so can u just imagine. post xtaIe, the sheer need for them to be together again. but they just can't. it's gonna take so much for their relationship to heal and it probably will never resemble what it was meant to be again but they can TRY
anyway. i'll probably get back to drawing them after the semester ends ( ^ฯ^ ) in the meantime enjoy this gif from uvstudios

Okay okay, please internet, donโt take this seriously but-
Tam, weโve talked about this; Maths sucks even more than fucking German. Sorry to my fellow Germans out there; Iโm one as well but this language just sounds so weird. What the fuck is a Donaudampfschifffahrtsgesellschaftskapitรคn, a Kraftfahrzeug-Haftpflichtversicherung or a Streichholzschรคchtelchen? I know what these things are but WHAT are these things?? My brother is complaining about the pronunciation of โsquirrelโ when the German word is EICHHรRNCHEN, I hate it here
@ everyone who struggles with German spelling or finds it hard to learn in general: It is. It really fucking is and this comes from a native speaker. Let me tell you, I personally wouldnโt get mad at you for mixing โdemโ and โdenโ up because cโmon, this is so stupid?? And German humor or sayings? โNow we have the saladโ or โI only understand train stationโ?? Fr, what does this mean? I do not want to know how much actual pain youโre going through because you have to learn how to pronounce โBrรถtchenโ, โmutterseelenalleinโ or โBACKPFEIFENGESICHTโ. You probably donโt have to know the second one but the fact that this word exists makes me want to slap my German teacher, even though he probably doesnโt deserve it. (Yo, just in case youโre German and are reading this...Please reply to this post if your teacher says stuff like โSilenciumโ, โAktivieret/lรถschet das Licht!โ and โNehmt einen Stift zur Hand, um das Tafelbild in euer Heft zu รผbertragen!โ because wow, I canโt believe that I have to delete my whole online existence now just because my classmates are on fucking Tumblr in 2021) People here are FIGHTING over the pronouns of the word โNutellaโ. Is it the Nutella or the Nutella?? Is this what our KAMERADSCHAFT has become? How the hell can people be transphobic if theyโre really out there trying to protect the gender of a glass of mf chocolate?? FUCKING TELL ME ALREADY
And whatโs the Moral von der Geschichtโ? Nobody made it to the end of this rant, I still have to read like 120 pages for German class tomorrow and I just confirmed the โangry Germanโ cliche
I'mma swear some of the words on there are so hard for me to read, I read the first four letters of some and then gave up sjsjsksk. One of them looks like a literal keysmash ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ.
Not gonna lie I tried to take up German, idk it's sounds sorta pretty, my bro here would strongly disagree, but I gave up because I just couldn't pronounce anything and that's probably my fault ๐
Group Alpha had an extraordinarily productive week this week. We started off with a mentality of โmaking it happenโ, which involved at least 1 group meeting per day. These multiple touchpoints allowed for us to begin putting out plan into action. This took us into the โdistinguishing actionsโ process, which first started with an emerged issue that we need to tackle right away. Our initial plan was for our organization to primarily be lobbyists to convince the FAA to adopt continuous descent approaches. A wrinkle came up as we were researching a potential action, because we realized that the FAA has actually already adopted this policy and tried implementing through a program called NextGen.
This allowed us the opportunity to go back and pivot to a different solution. Our research also led us to understand that despite the FAAโs adoption of continuous descent, there is still a need to funding at many airports to make continuous descent approaches a standard practice. With that knowledge, we decided to make our organizationโs purpose the funding and acceleration of continuous descent approaches, also known as optimized profile descent (OPD).
As we talked through this, many other ideas were discussed, such as green credits for airlines that adopt these policies, and how passengers can get involved in fundraising. Another process we used as this was happening was a โmoment of truth.โ We decided that an important step for us would be to develop a mission statement for our proposed organization, to ensure the purpose of our group was crystal clear, and that any other key activities done by the group were a bonus. The mission statement we ended up with was: โan organization focused on the acceleration of OPD as standard operating procedure.โ We expanded upon this purpose/mission statement by indicating that we will raise these funds for the purpose of accelerating OPD at select airports.
Josh knocked it out of the park by taking on the process of โlive up to its name.โ Josh very intentionally developed a brand concept and visualization, culminating in the name of our organization: Aviation Silencium, which is a fancy way of saying โquiet flight.โ
Finally, I found that our group did a very good job of utilizing all 8 of the popular action methods. While Rob did a great job with public speaking, jotting down ideas/thoughts of the group, and advocating for new ideas and different viewpoints, Josh was stellar with translating and digesting. Josh also helped us develop graphics that brought visual aspects to our ideas and allowed us to bring certain processes and ideas to life, such as the FAA/NextGen x Aviation Silencium logo concept. Finally, Mehrad was our voice of reason in many cases, keeping us on track, translating our ideas, and being a great example when it comes to the body-language and role-playing step. Mehrad definitely did a great job of โplaying the partโ and making actions speak louder than words. This definitely showed up in the research and divergent work he did.
Overall, there was a very positive shift in our group this week because we had to get aligned on our solution, and adjust to news that the FAA has already gotten on board with OPD. I am really proud of the progress that we made since this news came along, and I am anxious to roll up our sleeves and keep iterating on our Prototype Documentation.
damn i hate to admit it but i think i have a crush on my teacher, like he's not even MY teacher but i know him from lessons that take place after school and everyone from every grade can get there and do their homework (they call it "silencium"). and at the beginning of the school year me and my friend were looking at the list of who is gonna be the silencium teacher and while we were asking each other if we know who mr D is, a man passed by and said that it's him. i was a bit surprised cuz i didn't know we had THIS young teachers here at school because that motherfucker looks like he is 22 or something. and i went to the silencium and it was very chill BUTTTTTT i would catch him staring at me. and since then i'm only and only going to his silenciums and one time, i asked him to look at the summary of a movie that i had prepared for a presentation and he literally told me "it's written so damn good" and inside i was like "say what DADDYYYY" but on the outside i was blushing and told him that of course it's good cuz i spent 6 hours on it. and dayummmmmm that motherfucker is taaallllll and he's blonde and has got blue eyesss. and from that time, always when i get to his silenciums, he always tries to talk to me and we have cute small-talks. and there is a room for when you have the 50-minute recess where you can play board games and shit like that and i always go there to read my books he tries to have a conversation with me THERE TOO. LIKE DADDYYYYYYYYYYY IF YOU WANNA FUCK JUST TELL MEEEEE I'M NOT JUDGING
and yeah he's cute asf and he's funny and got good humor
and when see each other in the hallways, i always say 'hi' to him and i've got a really thin and girly voice so he repeats and imitates my voice and says 'hi' too and it's fuckin hilarious
and whenever he asks something that can be answered with just "yes" or "no", i don't give an explanation and just say a quick "yes" and he imitates that too. and today i asked him who had silencium today and he named each of them and at the end i was like "oh. ok." and he did the same LIKE BOI SORRY I CAN'T ANSWER DIFFERENTLY
anyways that's it and at the beginning of realising my feelings i was so fucking confused and shit like that and i couldn't sleep because i was thinking of him and i was cryingggg because you know i was confused as fuck
