#so essentially

[iheartmoons]

being aroace is loving someone as much as you are humanly capable, but that still not being enough because everyone is looking for the other type of love.

They did him so dirty with that hairstyle...

He might have done himself dirty tbh, because I'm not certain the Teen Wolf hair and makeup department were the ones to decide his hairstyle.

I know I'm not alone in thinking that Theo's spikey hair was not the best look for him. It made him look prepubescent in some shots.

But how else were we supposed to know he was evil than through his evil spikey hair?

He did look good here, though... 👀 (Those beautiful wee eyes)

HOWEVER, I think most of us can agree these were his best looks.

#the first image is one of the few times he actually looked good with that haircut #so essentially #this was an excuse to post some of my Theo pics #teen wolf #theo raeken #hairstyle

actually reblogging posts that represent perspectives from groups you don't belong to is actually very good and allowed. yes you can reblog that post from a physically disabled person even if you're not disabled. yes you can reblog that post about how black people are treated online. no it doesn't mean you're pretending to be part of these groups. genuinely, guys, this is how spreading different perspectives works

#like you dont HAVE to rb every post about activism or anything #but dont be held back by not belonging to the op perspective!! trust me people would specifically want those from other groups to Hear them! #so essentially #yasss. rb that post boy

Bad news for everyone, I’m getting an animatic idea for the HCQ again and it’s devastating me inside bc I can literally picture everything IT HURTS 😭

Lets see if I can follow through with this one

Gonna rant about it in the tags if anyone wants to feel my insane o7

#it’s R.o.S.E. BLUE by Dreamcatcher #i can literally envision it and I might show actively how I’d divide up the lyrics soon just so yall can understand my pain #IT HURTS #first part has a lot of them in #starting off the first verse with jingliu then shift to dan feng #then in the pre chorus its all yingxing #then the chorus comes in with a mix of them together #starting off dan feng then yingxing then baiheng and ending the chorus on jingliu about baiheng #them we start off the second verse and its all jing yuan #specific dami’s part is jing yuan completely #and the refrain that comes next is also all jing yuans #then heading into the pre chorus is dan heng #then the order for the chorus goes #jingliu then baiheng then dan heng and then blade/yingxing #ending off the chorus with jing yuan who is cut off from being completed by the instrumental bridge #finally the last chorus comes in #and it’s all yingxing specifically a yingxing from the pov of dan heng’s dream memories #so basically dan fengs memories #in the second to last line it changes with dan heng feeling yingxing lingering before it ends with the final line being him towards blade #so essentially #the choruses are a mix of them together at times #that each ends on is #jingliu and baiheng #then jing yuan whos chorus isnt able to end fully bc of the instrumental bridge #and then finally dan heng and blade #hsr #honkai star rail #hsr blade #dan heng #high cloud quintet

@w@ I know I'll be thanking myself in the future for it, but fuck is editing the prologue of Twins AU taking forever. There's just....... so so much. Aaaahhhh....

#Never mind that I keep being unsure if something needs to be reworded or changed #Cause like. The writing itself isn't /bad/ or anything #but my skills have definitely continued to improve since I wrote this #and that's important to acknowledge because that's why I'm polishing it up now #It's rougher than I would like and I think the changes I've made ARE improvements #Like #Vast improvements #but you know. How much does this actually need to be improved? #Can I improve upon it? #How much can I improve upon it? #that sort of thing #it's just more mentally taxing than I thought it would be rip #but alas #Editing has ALWAYS been a pain in the ass for me ngl #I hate editing.... #But I want my long fics to be top-notch quality #so essentially #I gotta turn my sketch (rough draft) into line art (second draft) and color it (3rd draft) and render it (final draft) #It's a LOT of work #-collapses-

how can they even face albus later. what they even gonnna say

They don’t! That’s why after Al is rescued Sann fumes at the sight of them and doesn’t let them get anywhere near him. Al is unresponsive, but that doesn’t mean he doesn’t feel or think anything, so seeing them is out of the question.

That’s why Sann takes him home with him, too.

In all honesty they can’t bear to deal with seeing what they allowed to happen to him, so they’re fine with Sann taking him away. Sarahí is honestly so ashamed she doesn’t want to see him. Neither of them know what to say, but because of her deal with Albus she hopes by fulfilling her part she can at least do something to make up for what she did (no, it actually makes it worse).

So yeah, I intended this to happen because what happens between the recovery arc where their feelings are all over the place and ridden with guilt has a lot to do with why in the future arc they end up living together again.

In the future arc, the first years are super hard on all of them. But I swear there’s a valid reason Al is with them.

#it’s tragic tho #I need you to prepare to really be sad for him #but also know something interesting #he IS healing during that arc #because Jules exists #but that isn’t all #it’s also because the roles and feelings regarding that #(as in being owned as their pet after what they did to each other) #are very different to what they used to be #so essentially #Albus is not their pet #he’s a guest waiting to go home #….. #is convoluted and I swear it has a reason #even if it’s bittersweet #ask

if yamanami had hijikata’s poem for noble phantasm i think they really want to implement takechi but his noble phantasm wouldn’t actually have anything to do with his seppuku and like most say it would definitely be like jason and the argonauts but with cute manslayers instead

#the other remaining two have too much potential has fate servants to the point it would be ridiculous to not take advantage of it #one obsessed with perfumes and the other being notoriously very small in height and so beautiful to be mistaken for a woman but who #WAS ACTUALLY THE MOST BLOODTHIRSTY OF THEM ALL and actually came back with a severed head after the guy had insulted them #when they were out drinking #so essentially #okada is the one most recognized as a manslayer by reputation #tanaka is the one with the highest death count and who provoked the formation of the shinsengumi in the first place #but the one with the most killing intent isn't actually present yet which #no fucking way they just wouldn't

this manatee looks like it’s in a skyrim loading screen

#misc #I encourage anyone dyslexic to try rotating him in your mind. I can’t do that; which is why I’m asking you to. #also: a bunch of tags are surprised this isn’t ‘shopped #it’s the lighting. backlit by the sun (which is diffused through the water) but also forelit artificially #the artificial light - a flash pack or something - casts a hard shadow under the creatures arm #which normally wouldn’t be possible if backlit by the SUN; you’d see a less-hard/more-fragmented shadow above water #as light sources ‘compete’ in a sense - and since there aren’t any light sources which can outshine the literal sun #it looks a bit weird when the darkest shadow is being cast from any other origin point - which is what’s essentially happening here #I don’t know the mechanics of how light travels through water; but I know the effect is substantial even with relatively short distances #also: it’s been balanced and color corrected by the author of the photo - who made deliberate choices to bring out the full potential #so it’s not like it’s a fresh and untouched export #but the kind of ‘tacked on’ appearance of the creature is a result of the lighting conditions within the image

Of the 19 hijackers who carried out the Sept 11 attacks:

15 were from Saudi Arabia (a powerful/oil-rich country the U.S. works hard to maintain diplomatic relations with)

2 were from the United Arab Emirates (also a powerful/oil-rich country the U.S. works hard to maintain diplomatic relations with)

1 was from Egypt, 1 from Lebanon.

None of the hijackers were from Iraq.

None of the Sept 11 hijackers were Iraqi.

None of the 9/11 hijackers were from Iraq.

#9/11 #serious post #not a shitpost #this should be one of the first things kids learn when they learn about the 9/11 attacks #politics #this is just...it's such an essential and brazen fact and i rarely see basic outrage over it #i want outrage. i want fury. i want disgust over the way fundamental facts are disguised and discarded and downplayed #because there are things we should KNOW. basic fact we should ALL KNOW. and they are tucked away in the footnotes. #and no this is NOT to put the blame on other middle eastern countries #we know this was carried out by a specific terrorist organization not a national government #but King George the Second decided (and was encouraged by his cabinet!) to invade a nation! #a nation that was not at all related or responsible!!! #a dictatorship to be sure--but a dictatorship that King George the First had been happy to support #so what changed? why did we go in guns blazing to DEMOLISH a country *we had NO PLANS OF REPAIRING*??? #well. because they wanted a villain didn't they. a nice clean war. clarity of purpose. us the heroes against them the villains #and when you're in that mindframe--truth is irrelevant. you can pick your villain (your victim) by rolling a roulette wheel #truth is irrelevant #worse: to the people in charge #truth is a HINDRANCE #'Alternative facts' existed long before it became a catchphrase #facts don't matter. truth doesn't matter. the impulses of a handful of volatile & rich & power-high people--that's History. congratulations

the place adventure time has in just culture in general is so so funny to be because it's so prevalent whether through just merch with characters on it or designs directly referencing the style/aesthetics and yet most people have not actually seen the show past season 1-5 (including me until like a year ago!) so if you try to explain any post s5 adventure time plot where it basically became a complete different show you sound fucking insane. they don't even know about princess bubblegum's gay cousin chicle. they don't even know about my dear friend fern.

#text! #adventure time #at #it's so funny to me bc it results in seeing discourse about the show between ppl who are essentially talking about entirely different shows #anyways fern mentioned i love you fern

#i literally JUST finished hill house a few days ago and i already want to reread. Badly. it's sooo so so soo sooooooooo good <33333!!!!! #also completely enamored by shirley jackson's writing style i NEED to read everything she has written ever like right now.. #opening lines of ALL TIME btw 👆❗❗❗ #r.txt #the haunting of hill house #ALSO i've seen commentary videos on the tv show they made of hill house but from what i remember of it it's SO different from the book??? #i think they were all siblings in the show which is??????? like why would you change that part?? i love sibling relationships as much as the #next guy but i feel like the fact that none of them knew each other was such an essential part of the story like why would u change it.... #also eleanor was like. an entirely different character who was also already dead in the show i believe??? and dr. montague doesn't exist?? #hill house could've been really good as a show idk why they changed it up like that...like was the original story not interesting enough for #you or something?? WHO decided to make that change i just wanna talk 🤨

#my art #feralnette au #birds of a feather #long tags #sorry I went apeshit in the tags #LETS SAY IT ALL TOGETHER NOW #I - M - A - G - OOOOOOOOO #its fun drawing marinette's back to Alya and having her appear stout and unstoppable and totally logical #and then you see her face and she's like two seconds from completely snapping and is keeping it together by a thread #as a note just because mari feels very certainly abt smth doesnt mean she's right. feelings can be valid and also irrational #in the throes of grief she decided it was better to be alone than to lose someone again so she started pulling away #and lila made pulling away very very very easy to do #shes also vaguely aware she's being unfair in pinning this on alya which is why she started spinning the drain on cockmoth again #legitimately all the shit that's happened to her wouldn't have been so catastrophic if he was never in the picture and she knows it #but the bitterness of her bestie choosing a fantastic liar over her at the worst of times stiiiiiings #alya's personal timing was bad but lila really took advantage of the fact that marinette had been acting off and weird #she basically clocked marinette as being unstable from SOMETHING and made up a lie about her #knowing she wouldn't have the strength to defend herself #between her social life going tachy bc of lila and losing fu in a way that felt like personhood death marinette was really put on the spot #and alya doing her thing of busting in there and assuming her bias is correct was a terrible combo #essentially marinette is highly unstable and alya is just realizing that #busting in and giving her a lecture when she's slightly hysterical and definitely delirious from exhaustion is NOT the way #to show her she's self sabotaging #cuz thats just gonna make her double down on self sabotaging. bc marinette will not accept that she is also a CHIIIIILD

Reverse Robin au but the ages aren't changed. Just adoption order.

I can't get over the way Lucy and the Ghoul's trigger fingers are symbolically exchanged. Lucy needs to learn how to survive in a hostile world and Cooper needs to be reminded of his humanity every time he pulls the trigger.

some of yall use "amab" and "afab" as like, a woke substitute for "male" and "female" and its real weird. agab terminology is useful for talking about like, your personal life experiences and very specifically medical and legal problems you might run into. if you use it to describe a stranger then you're just going back to gender essentialism in a new hat. and implying you can clock everyone, to boot.

#'i saw an afab person' ok so you think people are assigned female because of some immutable quality to them gotcha #and that they can never actually lose that quality and transitioning is therefore essentially playacting cool cool cool #discourse /
