i think just on a fundamental level stories that say “it might not be easy, but choosing to care and love and connect with people matters” are the ones that will always appeal to me

hannah not only kept the original green army man that ted gave rebecca after the show wrapped but saying that she kept it in rebecca’s handbag throughout the run of the show……..

This might be my toxic trait as a Star Wars fan but I really have no interest in exploring Leia’s relationship with Vader, and to a lesser extent Padmé. Leia had parents who loved her and influenced her infinitely more than some biological bonds to people she either a) DESPISED or b) admired but never knew because they were dead. Leia never recognized Vader as her father, despite wholeheartedly accepting Luke as her brother. Meanwhile, while Luke grew up with guardians who wanted and loved him, he always knew they weren’t his parents. He loved his father before he ever met him and loved him when he died. To me that is MUCH more compelling than exploring a relationship with Vader that Leia neither wanted nor needed.

gosh, I just love Enlightened One/Sothis Regalia/Archbishop Byleth soso much

love Byleth embracing their role in the church. love letting them own their goddess powers/affiliation. love them following in Sothis's footsteps, taking on her role for themself after losing her. LOVE them becoming that guiding light to Fodlan, just like they were a guiding light to their students at the academy

that, to me, IS Byleth's arc. they weren't happy during their time as a mercenary, just existing and killing to survive, but never connecting with others. then the academy gave them an opportunity they never would have sought out, but that allowed them to forge those connections they didn't even know they were missing. and it turns out to be unexpectedly fulfilling for them. to see their story culminate in them embracing a role of spiritual guidance to all of Fodlan is such a fitting resolution to that growth, imo

rotating so many thoughts about the alia-minfilia-thancred-ryne dynamic during shadowbringers at terminal velocity

not long ago a screamed and cried the lyrics to spillways while listening to it, specifically the

IT’S THE CRUEL BEAST THAT YOU FEED ITS YOUR BURNING YEARNING NEED TO BLEED

and quite literally every time i hear it, i can hear myself screaming it in my own head

its weirdly comforting however that ghost somehow put that very specific emotion into words, enough for a physical reaction

omg wait.......shadi enigmar is zak gramarye........ i'm finally connecting the dots

Going through my Exile posts, trying to piece together a more concrete timeline while keeping it accurate to what we already have, and this is... actually really helping! like. wow okay. And some questions I threw out into the void, I actually have answers for now! amazing

I know I have some Exile (and a DragonLight or two) asks already, but most are songs (which I love btw but. brain is relating music to my other brainrots rn instead of exile for some reason? even tho everything else comes back to Exile?? idk man), but any Exile thoughts/questions? Motivations, character relations, specific events, things like that?

I've got some new Crow, Saint, and potentially Ikora lore (potentially, because I'm not sure if I want to go that far in her guilt) i wanna explore some, but... not really sure how or what to even start with bc brain's refusing to give me anything coherent anymore. Everyone's on the plate tho lmao I need to flesh people out either way-

/ those of u guys who write s.ervants or have f.ate s.ervant verses, would u let d.aybit be ur muses' m.aster-

making a sharp turn from cyrillo, i really miss writing kaiya btw!! my brain is just very much not focused on k.ny atm, so i'm heavily contemplating revamping her a bit. i'll keep her k.ny stuff as a verse, but her main verse will be something original, maybe involving vampires?? since i feel k.ny demons are close to them, but i haven't entirely decided yet. part of me wants to throw her into dorverold, too, and make her the head coordinator?? manager?? of cyrillo's household since he houses a ton of vampires and needs people to take care of the particulars.

i also!! want to give her a j.jk verse bc i still have the idea bouncing around in my head that she produced enough cursed energy to draw in a curse that killed her husband for her. she didn't mean for it to happen, didn't ask it to do that, but :' )) that's what happened :' )) and now that i'm typing it out, maybe!! the curse then acts as a guardian/shikigami, similar to rika? but it's a little different and maybe much more difficult to convince the higher ups to allow kaiya and her new friend to live bc it's like :' ) this curse just decided it liked kaiya :' ) it's not bound to her in the same way that rika is bound to yuta. so i gotta brainstorm this a bit more... but i like it a lot tbh!! and maaaybe an added detail is that kaiya is something of a magnet for curses?? that's her cursed technique, much to her initial dismay asdf

things charlotte does when she is home alone: there's music going on almost constantly but the source changes between the CD player, her iPod, sometimes vinyls, and sometimes the radio although she plays the radio the least because weird things happen when she listens to too much radio ie. prophetic phrases, confusing fourth wall breaks, retroactive interference with her memory, etc. she takes some time to make her space tidy, but otherwise spends her time making herself tea, coffee, weird fruit smoothies, to have while she stretches or sits in the sunny spots of the house reading. she'll try on her clothes and mends what needs to be mended. she likes to tinker with stuff and fix the furniture around the house. she plays chess against herself while something's cooking or baking in the kitchen. she'll eat dinner while people watching out her window. all that being said, charlotte doesn't spend much time home alone. girl's always out and about sooner or later.

moon cleric mollymauk asking caleb and jester for advice on how his new magic works, being fascinated by the fact that he can cast fancy little spells and seeing caleb look at him with pride

I need to discuss history with Mr ghost. I know he's knowledgeable in it. I know we'd have a good conversation. I know

stop blaming children for shit YOU don’t understand

wee bit drunk and pondering ''am i asexual or have i simply been stuck inside one house for a year since the plague'' as seeing real people in the street on frequent basis is making me think thots. i should be at the clubbb.

can’t decide if i read fight club at the right or completely wrong time in my life
