I’m so sorry, tumblr fucked up when I tried to send my answer and I wasn’t able to post it or save it as draft ;; , so doing it this way.
✏️ PENCIL - is there a particular quote / lyric that you associate with them?
There are so many quotes and lyrics I associate with Salvadore. Giving some examples. 😊
“You have to learn the rules of the game.
And then you have to play better than anyone else.”
- Albert Einstein.
-
“Dressing well is a form of good manners.”
- Tom Ford
-
for Sal when he still was a boy, things Eneas told him, from “Wanderer’s Lullaby” (Adriana Figueroa):
“Though the world may try to define you
It can't take the light that's inside you
[...]
You are the dawn of a new day that's waking
A masterpiece still in the making
The blue in an ocean of grey
You are right where you need to be
Poised to inspire and to succeed
You'll look back and you'll realize one day”
-
from “Believer” (Imagine Dragons):
“I'm the one at the sail, I'm the master of my sea”
-
from “Emperor’s New Clothes” (Panic! At the Disco):
“Sycophants on velvet sofas
Lavish mansions, vintage wine
I am so much more than royal
[...]
If it feels good, tastes good
It must be mine
Heroes always get remembered
But you know legends never die”
-
from “Centuries” (Fall Out Boy):
“Some legends are told
Some turn to dust or to gold
But you will remember me
Remember me for centuries”
-
Sal’s cheer up song, when he’s down: “King” (Lauren Aquilina):
“You've got it all
You lost your mind in the sound
There's so much more, you can reclaim your crown
You're in control
Rid of the monsters inside your head
Put all your faults to bed
You can be king again”
-
A few quotes I connect to him are on his Pinterest Board.
And that’s his Playlist.
🌪️ TORNADO - what is the biggest change you've ever made to them? how have they changed from their original version?
I actually never truly changed him, he wouldn’t allow it. It’s more like getting to know him and he showed more and more about himself over the years. By putting him in different universes, by confronting him with interesting situations, by making him think about questions I or others came up with, the picture became clearer and multilayered.
Sometimes he corrected me when I assumed something wrong or explained a part in more detail later, but it was always like discovering something new, never like bringing on a change that didn’t come from him.
💚 GREEN HEART - what things make your oc feel comforted? hugs, kisses, food?
Being held. And warmth, either of a blanket, an embrace, or a bath, maybe all three.
When Salvadore finds himself in a phase of self-doubt and self-punishment, touch is the way to go with him, to not only let him hear but make him feel that he is loved, at his lowest as well.

Star Trek makes me soooo crazy cuz you got Picard saying things like "It is possible to commit no mistakes and still lose."
And Data saying things like "I would gladly risk feeling bad at times, if it also meant that I could taste my dessert."
And Bashir saying things like “You can't go through life trying to avoid getting a broken heart. If you do, it'll break from loneliness anyway."
And Odo sayings things like "It has been my observation that one of the prices of giving people freedom of choice is that sometimes they make the wrong choice."
And I’m just supposed to be normal about it???

tumblr users will have the most inaccessible, unreadable, low contrast, flashing carrd you can possibly imagine, with a dni full of insider acronyms with no translation and numerous link buttons labelled with cryptic captions, and then go ahead and put “ableists dni and kys!” on that carrd

I know Jason always calls Dick the "Golden child" and in comics tends to paint him as this unbeatable person in terms of morals/goodness in his head, which makes Jason feel inferior and not good enough..
but I think it'd be so fucking funny if instead of Jason thinking he'll never be as good as Dick, it's actually him just mocking his brother around others, because Jason 100% remembers Dick on multiple occasions offering his 12yo self weed while Bruce wasn't around, and he's the only sibling with the knowledge that Dick wasn't this "holier than thou, I make no mistakes and am perfect" child, which is why Jason keeps praising to the younger batfam members on how Dick is so perfect KNOWING that Dick was absolutely not that.

house md so wonderful and brilliant because it is simultaneously the heaviest, darkest, most serious show about love and loss and how trauma shapes people and the most unhinged thing you'll ever experience.

"But there is a clarity about September. On clear days, the sun seems brighter, the sky more blue, the white clouds take on marvelous shapes; the moon is a wonderful apparition, rising gold, cooling to silver; and the stars are so big."
