#when he balls himself up like that

[shima-draws]

Currently in the middle of reading a Lawlu soulmate fic and it’s SUPER cute so far but the best thing is that Law is also Cora’s (platonic) soulmate, and Cora’s got the ‘You won’t see in color until you meet your soulmate’ kind of bond. Except it fluctuates depending on Law’s health, and Law runs purely on caffeine and spite, so Cora will text him being like “Hey. For some strange reason I currently cannot see the color red. Would you happen to know anything about that” and Law is just like “Uhhh. No??” and Cora’s like “Law I swear to GOD you’d better stop pulling all nighters do not make me come over there” LMAO

#I LOVE this concept so much oh my godddd #Cora’s ability to see in color all dependent on Law #So he’s got a RADAR. He KNOWS when Law isn’t treating himself well #Cora: Can currently only see in pastels. Law. #Law; sweating: In my defense I HAD to be up all night. Okay?? #Cora: EXCUSES!! GO TO BED!!!!!! #FNNSNFNS #It’s called ‘Not a Ball or a Chain’ btw!! #I really love the concept they’re exploring too of like. Not WANTING a soulmate. Not wanting that bond to be romantic #Bc I know a lot of people’s gripes with soulmate AUs revolves around forced destiny and characters HAVING to end up with each other #Idk I just like it 👉👈 #One Piece #Lawlu #Also the idea of platonic soulmates makes me soooo happy #Law and Cora are absolutely platonic soulmates 🥺 #Shima speaks

okay no see the thing that made me really, really sad about hinata and the thing that made me really, really root for him and love him and want to see him win it all was how, like, people kept DENYING him. and i'm not talking about spectators in the stands going "omg he's so short haha, can he really do anything?" i'm talking about how his own team and how everyone who knew them in some way - as much as i love them - could never really separate him from kageyama. they were the freak quick duo, karasuno's number nine and number ten. they were amazing! so brilliant, the two of them. and hinata thought it was a way out, at first. he thought it was a way over the summit. he thought it was the key to being someone better.

but a key goes both ways, you know. it can lock you up just as much as it can set you free.

and hinata had to be so, so frustrated. everyone was finding ways to move forward except him. everyone expected him to stay stuck. and you could argue that that's not entirely true, sure, that he was always training, always trying to catch up, and they encouraged that. but nobody ever expected him to be more. nobody ever expected him to go beyond what he had with kageyama - they all thought that was enough for hinata. they thought he was fine like that because it worked for the rest of them. they underestimated how much he wanted to be capable. they didn't get how much he wanted to stand on his own two feet.

and that wasn't fair to hinata! it wasn't fair that hinata, who loved to play and loved the game and loved volleyball so so much, was the only one being left behind! he wanted to change that but nobody was trying with him!!! so of course he got impatient!! of course he was reckless!!! of course he was carving his own opportunities!!! there was no way forward otherwise!!! because if we take a minute to think about how training would have gone while kageyama was at tokyo, let's be honest — it probably wouldn't have gone well. nobody else can do with hinata what kageyama could do with him. hinata would have been held back. he would have felt useless. practicing serves and receives was stuff he was already doing constantly before that, and it wasn't teaching him anything. yeah hinata was a little bit selfish and a little bit shameless but being so finally got him somewhere!!

all hinata ever wanted to do was fly, even if it meant straying from the flock to do so

#anyways lesson learned: when you've exhausted all other options then just fucking go for it #what's the worst that could happen #you either get shit done or you don't #ball boy arc is sooooo important and i hate when ppl treat it like hinata was just being stupid #he was FED UP!!! #washijo sure as hell wasn't going to let him prove anything so he had to do it himself #and hinata actually showed a LOT of restraint for how he actually is imo #he accepted washijo's decision so easily. i think he knew in a way. that he wouldn't have been accepted #but he had to try SOMETHING bc he wasn't getting anywhere with everyone else!!!! #and my heart breaks whenever i think about taking suga taking kageyama's part in the early part of the story #about them not needing to try anything new or do anything risky so close to the tournament #hinata was so fucking shackled and that's why brazil was so good for him #it gave him a chance to grow into himself #ALSO EVERYONE KEEPS ACTING SURPRISED WHEN HE GETS BETTER AND BETTER WHEN THAT'S ALL HE EVER WANTED HELLO #hinata shouyou #haikyuu #haikyuu!! #haikyuu meta #sou says stuff

ok... so Lambert x Eve...

Eve and the two Blaiddyds

Lambert and the two Fierenes

The step-siblings

@blaiddydbrokeit and I were talking, and they have now sent me down the wonderful rabbit hole that is Eve and Lambert getting married and looking after their children.

#Dimi desperately needs a good mother figure (y'know rather than his idealised image of Patricia who never really loved him and didn't pay #attention to him no matter what he says to himself (you know only having that one memory of her where she was looking out the window and ig #ring him) and then tried to murder him adn his whole family) anyway #Eve would be good for Dimi #and Lambert and Alfred and Celine would get up to all sorts of shenanigans #but also Lambert might be able to help Celine understand and overcome her fear of other's deaths #Dimitri in particular would be able to understand that fear and sympathise with her #and alfred is just having a great time with a new brother and dad because everything is awesome all the time and his old dad would have lov #d his new dad and he tells alear all about it and she's like ooh! #anyway an adorable meet the step-dad step-brother situation for the couple (you know my alflear loving heart can never resist an opportunit #anyway #other tags were originally messaged to a pal when we discussed the idea but I thought they would work under the picutres too: #crack ship or not Lambert and eve are adorable in my brain #lambert egitte blaiddyd #queen Eve #fire emblem engage #fire emblem three houses #anyway maybe in a heroes universe or something; or dimi revives Lambert using some sort of magic and then Lambert and eve meet up in a Fodl #an and Elyos meet and greet sort of ball and they become friends and then they discuss being widowed and through a long series of meet ups #realise a political marriage between them both would be good for Fodlan and Fahrgus and good for Fierene and Elyos and they're also in love #anyway they both visit each other's spouses graves on the anniversary of death #like they would both really respect their partner's deceased spouses and not be jealous at all when the other gets upset and is like #I really miss them. Because they both get it

the journey of gordon juniperus gresley (and still ongoing)

#thomas the tank engine #thomas and friends #ttte gordon #senjart #casa tidmouth #casa tidmouth act 2 #my everything. godddd I love him so so much #he's like. objectively the best character in the whole series #also I think he and scott were really close as kids #esp. with only one year age difference and how scott continuously supported him despite their family's situation #(imo their rivalry in tgr was one sided from gordon's part. scott's just balling while gordon still wants to overpass him) #like ok. I know this is a post about gordon but I think scott needs some appreciation with how he prioritizes his brother over himself #bro's probably emotionally devastated too with losing his siblings and father. but he still has his little brother #gordon probably felt like he owes scott a lot. but he's bad at words (ALL gresleys are) and he has his own set of problems SOOOOOO #and gordon. even though he lost so many people in his life he still keeps on going. he never gives up because- #-despite how much he complaints and boasts about himself he firmly believes that things will eventually turn out okay for him #aggresive optimist. something like that? you get what I'm trying to say #like a coworker would say ''this is hopeless'' and gordon would just say ''you're being ridiculous'' #anyways enough of me talking. I wanna draw scott's and gordon's railway show designs BUT WHEN? LET'S SEE #(crying at little gordon. it shows from his eyes that he has no idea what's about to happen to him)

gaaaaah i’m just so so so obsessed with the transition from ‘shy and soft’ to ‘self-aware and absolutely furious that he isn’t the main character but refuses to give up and acknowledge that without a fight’. like i think it’s neat that kieran kinda leans on the fourth wall in some places (his critical hit dialogue in the last fight against him having him be like ‘what, are you the hero of this story or something?!’) bc it’s been demonstrated how he loves stories and him seeing himself as a character in one (the whole ogerpon thing and him directly comparing himself to her as a misunderstood victim)

just. it’s so tasty. how he ends up being the toxic bully himself instead and doesn’t realize that for so long bc he saw himself as the hero here. it hurts so bad that we had to put him in his place bc he was out of control but it’s such a delightful tragedy. like i have never felt so bad about being the main character before. i’ve never wanted an npc to punch me so badly

#pecharunt epilogue save me save me #like obv they can’t turn around and have him be evil or angry *now* #but like #maybe. maybe maybe #i’m still waiting on hearing more about this #it would be a true wasted opportunity if he hadn’t been at least a little poison-tainted #thinking he was the ogerpon of this story when he was really a toxic chain’ed bully himself… #oouuuughghggh #i love this kid #if nothing else i’m ok with chalking it up to The Disease of Being Fourteen but like c’monnnn #whoever is cooking on the story team at gamefreak keep it up. don’t drop the ball #push this kinda thing harder #call into question the fact that the player has a ridiculous level of skill and luck and has boxes of overleveled mons and lotsa materials #get meta with it #pokémon #teal mask/indigo disk #sv dlc spoilers #kieran

had a dream where the main character was named dylan, and dylan was a wizard. magic in this world was a very stable give-and-take system

so there was this investigator, right, who was OBSESSED with figuring out how the fuck dylan was doing half the shit he was getting away with. because it was impossible!!

anyway the funniest possible thing was this detective and his frustration, right? because he was trying to figure out what was going on. and he was like "magic can't just DO this because it's stable"

anyway dylan's entire build was called "the unstable magician"

so, dylan's signature thing was time magic which reversed time by like, fifteen seconds. actually he also had a teenage apprentice/adopted daughter who he taught the same thing, so their signature thing was "if one of us gets exploded and killed just reverse time don't worry about it"

#my dreams #dream journal #dylan the unstable magician #unstable magic dream #the reason why dylan could use time magic was because he sacrificed his balls to do it #he had exactly 0 formal training which i feel like every other mage in this universe had #absolute fucking disaster magician #scruffy beat up looking asshole who just had an apprentice to reverse it when he accidentally exploded himself #or was exploded by others #they did a little hand sign when they wanted to reverse time #that was like making a v with ur pointer and middle finger and pressing them together to make a wee little box

[todayisafridaynight]

would it be okay if u told me why u like aoki😭/gen😭😭😭😭BEEN TRYNA LIKE HIM FOR SO LONG I JUST CANTT but i love ur art so much so i still consume it otherwise lol

i liked tohru adachi in high school and tbh i think that alone is enough of an explanation for why i ended up liking aoki

#snap chats #haha see i told you last post's tags were relevant #anyway vLKVJEVLKAEJVLKJ IM CRYING ANON youre so funny. this is the funniest ask i coulda got thank you so much #i dont know why i like him either <- yes i do #fine lets get Real Talk about it #well first off all i thought he looked hot rolling out the elevator and i was playing the eng dub and i think his voice sounds hot there #and thats like. not athing that happens to me ever <- literally thought sawashiro was hot two frames into the game but anyway #i like politician characters. or characters that are in a position of power ESPECIALLY if they have to act like they dont suck balls #like i very much love the idea of the power of charisma and that type of thing not to mention the 'strategizing' as aoki puts it #that comes with politics. LIKE HE SUCKS DONT GET IT TWISTED HE SUCKS BUT //shrug emoji// #like its why i love the mine rggo stories i like seeing mine's thought process and how he uses his intelligence #smart's sexy to me idk what to tell you but moving on #its fun watching him lose his cool too ESP IN HIS FIGHT LMAO HE STOMPIN HIS FOOT LIKE A TODDLER SHUT UP #i also really love the arakawa family in general and thinking of aoki's relationship with each of them makes my brain explode #especially him and sawashiro that shit is painful to watch and i love it so much #i also thought him going from goth to republican was the funniest shit in the world like i howled at that AND i was distraught #aokis so interesting to me from the notion that he IS loved by his family but he has so much hatred for himself it eats him up #and as a result he cant be happy no matter what he does- how hes constantly seeking validation even if it's nothing meaningful #his lil. Dog-Eat-Dog world world belief to ichi also appealed to my edgy depressed high schooler brain. sorry. #his speech at the lockers also got to me. unfortunately. sorry everyone i empathized too hard it got too real it wasnt funny anymore #like as much as i complain bout the very end the ending is what solidified me liking aoki if not also cause of ichi's impact in those scene #plus... analyzing him and the environment around him is so much fun too.... #idk reasons for why i like aoki also boil down to personal reasons. he still sucks tho so i cant be upset when people hate him LOL #i probably have more reasons or could elaborate more i love rambling but i mean. who really wants to read all that 💀💀 #maybe for a character that WASNT the worst but. aoki is so LMAO #thank you for loving my art regardless :) im sorry i have to be attached to the worst guys ever

3:35 to 4:10 in Levitate is so unbelievably comforting to me. In the best (and worst) way possible, it truly does feel like levitation.

The best way I can describe it is laying in someone's arms, lover, friend, foe or family, and simply basking in the comfort they give you. One arm wrapped, gently, around your middle, fingers tracing invisible patterns on your clothes, and the other hand softly combing through your hair as they whisper soft nothings in your ear. You're on the brink of sleep; half listening to their words and half being drawn in by the comfort of the drowsy void.

It's a warm hug that you never want to leave. (catch me replaying that part over and over)

#and then the breakdown #(since you all seem to like it so much when I get depressive with these I'll pull out my thoughts) #my mind always conjurs two things with the breakdown; death and mourning #when you think of levitation you either think of magic or death; the soul rising up to Heaven #the choir that joins Vessel singing are angels as he tries to comfort the person dying in his arms. #the breakdown is when he finally realises that's it; they're gone #he brought down Heaven like an ancient bygone for them knowing their own wings wouldn't find it #but by God he'll scream and cry and year himself inside out over it even if he told himself that he would accept it #('death' can either be interpreted as actual death or the act of leaving someone for good -> #those last few seconds of calm is having one last moment with them before they rise to where he can't reach them) #if you can't tell I'm in my sad yearning hours because I didn't sleep last night and I'm stressed about trying to get tickets but we ball 💪 #sleep token #st #sleep token analysis #levitate (song) #levitate #sundowning #mel's rambles

being super normal about White calling Billy "a dreamer"after the events of Maybe No Go

#truly alarming amount of tags on this post don't click read more fr #the venture bros #pete white #bily quizboy #billy whalen #idk man the way they balance each other is really interesting #the things they agree on and disagree on are almost arbitrary #'you can't put mouthwash in a cookie' 'trust me' vs 'we should spend 10 mil on a motorcycle instead of housing' 'that's such a cool idea' #billy trying to pep white up about the ball #'this was your dream too' like come on dude when have pete's dreams ever worked out #when have yours #'what are we gonna do now billy?' 'we'll cross that bridge when we come to it' #baby the bridge has never been more present #ALSO white calling billy the dreamer when HE'S the one who pushes so hard for things #billy has dreams that might not be realistic but they give him hope and he works around the way the world works to make things happen #like being a self-taught surgeon and believing in a magic ball #pete has dreams IN SPITE of what is realistic and he will mold reality to be what he wants in order to make it happen #like fixing the quizshow and pretty much everything that happened in invisible hand of fate #and they both have disabilities that affect them in vastly different ways and impact their relationship with realistic goals #like billy's hydrocephalus being presented to the audience as mostly a social issue for him and the hand and eye being marks of trauma #rather than like an actual block for him beyond needing to tune the hand up every now and then #vs white's albinism making him physically unable to be in direct sunlight and making him actively fearful of doing certain things and #being certain places #to be clear i know the actual effects of hydrocephalus as well as the hand and eye but this is based on how the show presents it #like billy took these things about himself into account and went ok these are part of my reality and i will work with them #and pete took his reality and went ok i will cover it up with fake tan and wigs or sunscreen and hats and make reality what i want it to be #and that's what makes them a good team!! that's why they science together well #it's also why they argue so much #accepting reality and playing within its constraints vs hating reality and changing it to suit you #these are the hallmarks of scientific progress

post s5 lisa taking dean to her high school reunion (LOOK at my hot boyfriend who has a vintage car and goes down on me and loves my SON. bet you regret spreading rumors i had the clap now asshole). the whole thing sadly goes awry because lisa forgot dean is both deeply strange and a shaking purse dog at heart

#in all fairness. i don't think lisa would really have the occasion to see dean surrounded by a group of strangers when he's not doing a bit #for a case #like sure they had neighborhood cookouts. but dean a.) had met a fair number if not all of those people one on one already #and b.) could easily nominate himself as the burger guy. giving him the excuse to not mingle while letting him do a task #high school reunions are a very different ball game. especially with the additional pressures of dean's high school baggage #people asking him basic questions about his life #and the internal sense that this is how he Proves he's a good boyfriend. he CANNOT fuck this up. which obviously makes everything worse

okay so either they moved the cursed eunji/jaewon scene further back in the show, or it got deleted which seems very unlikely but ??? like i just saw a spoiler from the movie, and it looks like that scene happened right before jihyun and jaewon had their talk from the end of ep8 so i’m like 🤔. especially since it would’ve really fit in between the eunji/jihyun exchange and the jaewon/jihyun talk since jihyun actually asked her to come to his workplace with jaewon.

#it was most likely just moved back for the show #honestly i do not understand how they cut down the show into a 2-hour movie like ????? #no wonder people thought the movie was choppy lmao #anyways i'm curios to see if or when that scene will grace us #like atp i'm still very much team 'reunion in ep9 and fluff and some serious talks in ep 10' #but then again we still need to see jaewon snapping himself back into reality while realizing that he is deserving of jihyun's love #like i know jihyun won't give up so the ball's definitely in jaewon's court #anyways idk why i'm even making this post like i never make posts but here we are #the eighth sense #the eighth sense spoilers #i guess

my age might be a factor in how I view Victor with a little more lenience than I typically see LMAO I'm going on 26 so when I see 17-19 year old Victor just start out so wrong in ways that could have been so easily prevented or remedied early on I don't feel the kind of impulse to criticize a peer but instead I just feel the sense of frustrated pity

#txt #if i had read it in school when i was his age im sure i would feel differently 😭 #but then again I'm around the same age he was at the end of his life #however at that point he's had so many trainwrecks that i still can't hate him or feel too harshly against him because it's just Sad #like after having so much time and so many opportunities to do SOMETHING differently #he still repeatedly found different reasons to convince himself he couldn't speak up and couldn't fix if #the ball rolls downhill forever

Thinking really hard about how in episodes 108/109 of GX, all Jesse had to do was lean over the side of the fuckin tree that just kinda sticks out of the cliff and grab the damn rope under where Axel's little device was chipping away at it. If he did that they could've saved Syrus and solved that entire problem in like 2 minutes 😭 but nooooo we're all too concerned with Jaden and Axel's duel and it takes Syrus almost falling to his fuckin death when the rope breaks for that glorious southern belle to use his brain 😭

Listen Jesse, I love you. I love you so very much. But if Hassleberry were the one in the position to directly do something about it he would've done that 😑 He would've handled the problem so easily.

#I swear this makes me just as mad if not more than in season 2 of DM when Yugi and Seto walked right past Joey and Téa #they were literally right across the fucking street how did they not see them 😭😭😭 #Jesse really dropped the ball in that situation like honey you really think trying to shove a little twig into the device will help??? #I get it he was trying to jam the machine so it stopped cutting the rope but if he just leaned over and grabbed the rope under the cut- #-he could've just pulled Syrus up back to safety and then it wouldn't have been an issue 😭 #but no Syrus had to almost fall to his damn death #honestly they both dropped the ball because Hassleberry could've just switched positions with Jesse at any time and rescued Syrus himself #but whatever I digress they saved Syrus and he was unharmed in the end it's fine but I'm still mad about it 😭 #yugioh #yugioh gx #ygo gx #syrus truesdale #jesse anderson #tyranno hassleberry #axel brodie #jaden yuki #abby's just rambling don't mind her
