“I ought to be thy Adam, but I am rather the fallen angel.”

my school president is so fucking perfect from start to finish sometimes i think it's not real. but it is. it wasn't a dream. holy fuck.

imagine joys dad (whats his name??) and mr sweet having a little group chat like "whats the worst way we can treat our children?? ideas?"

and btw im in my hater arc rn. as time goes on the more i find a lot of 'fandom' stuff insufferable (i like art n stuff. just the way that fandom refits every media to fit a single mold and set of boring archetypes is exhausting.)

i just get really easily annoyed lately. and have been unfollowing people on a whim a lot. its not personal i promise

.

people really be out here saying they hate CATS (musical) and that cats is dogshit etc etc and then only show images of or refer to the 2019 movie. GIRL... THAT ISNT CATS... WATCH 98’ P L E A S E. Then you will at least respect it as a ballet show because that’s what it is at it’s core. Fuck

Hi! As someone who now kinda wants to check out Trigun because of the hype, do you recommend that I can start with Stampede? Or do I really need to watch the OG anime first to better understand/enjoy it? Thank you! 🙋🏻‍♀️

you can start with stampede! i'd say knowing the context of the original enhances the experience but isn't necessary to enjoy the show. I would consider stampede more viewer-friendly, especially for those of us who are used to modern storytelling conventions (the original suffers the consequences of general writing trends in anime at the time it was produced and of the fact that it was produced long before the manga was finished, so the story is somewhat disjointed and has a lot of filler which makes it REALLY hard to get into.) if you do end up liking stampede, however, I'd suggest trying out watching at least SOME of the original because it adds a lot of cool nuance and context to the story that stampede tells!

tav shri’iia is THE canon for me obvi but I also really like the idea of tav wren with yves still being part of the dead three as bhaal’s chosen. the thing with wren is that he was yves’ childhood friend who was pursuing his bard career and severely flopping. one night when he was supposed to escort yves home from the graveyard he chose to perform in some tavern instead, and that night is when the bhaalists came and killed her. for him, one of his closest friends just went missing the night he was supposed to look after her, and when she returns 2 weeks later all beaten up and bloody with no memory of herself ofc he felt guilty….! and he couldn’t even bear to look at her because it’s all his fault u know … if only he didn’t ditched her maybe this wouldn’t have happened so one night he just decides to leave bc he couldn’t take it anymore. it’s always been his dream to be a travelling bard anyway and maybe his career will pick up in some other city than baldur’s gate, so he leaves her and his home and sets out to salvage what he can of his career. and in the most part he was mildly successful. he also ends up making a pact with some fae and they help with his bard career too lol but the guilt of yves is still in his mind- he just got better at ignoring it.

SO. imagine his surprise when he gets tadpoled and goes to moonrise to find a cure and he sees his friend - the girl that’s been haunting his dreams and the source of his guilt and shame - a part of the evil cult that’s been enslaving people with parasites. and now he’s meant to kill her? but how could he when he’s the one who left her behind and maybe it’s his fault that she turned out like this … but anyway I love the idea of wren being like noooo that’s NOT yves she would never do that!! and they’re just like girl ur delusional ur friend is literally chopping people up forcing us to find the parts like some treasure hunt

idk what to call them but why are the doctor's assistants/passengers/guests/associates/etc SO RUDE about alien appearances. like girl that is AN ALIEN. of course theyre going to look different than a human. if i saw a guy with a bunch of tangled tentacles for a mouth and fish-goat eyes, i'd simply be cool about it. RIP to all the gals i've seen on the show so far but i'd be different.

got a sudden urge to listen to the twisted soundtrack and now i am. i should rewatch it

Huge fan of attending the same performance over and over again until I get it right (aka find the perfect central perspective)

Imagine it's two in the morning. The other side of your bed holds nothing but cold, empty wrinkles on the sheet, and you realize that your husband isn't there. So, you move from your sleeping spot and hiss when the cold floor comes in contact with your warm feet, tucked in the embrace of a warm blanket.

Your feet search for your slippers as you adjust the robe that'd fallen off of your shoulders. Then, you search for your husband, hoping that he didn't fall asleep on the couch after watching a movie so you didn't need to pick up 200 pounds of muscle.

The downstairs is lightened up in a soft glow of green from the tv, so it was easier to map out your surroundings. Then, you find kirishima hunched over with his hands over his mouth bawling from.

(Sorry, I just needed to get this off of my chest 😩)

Okay but why does that video make me want to cry, too??? Help.

Anyway, there you find him, trying not to let out any vocal sobs out of fear of waking you... and it's one of the sweetest, saddest things you've ever seen.

When he spots you standing in the doorway, he quickly tries to wipe his face so that you don't notice the tears, but since the video is still playing in the background, of course it doesn't work and he's left just... staring at you under the flickering blue lights with a wobbly lip and wet cheeks.

I feel like... you could easily lead him back to bed, or you could crawl onto his lap right then and there and comfort him that way, too. Wiping his cheeks in silence as the episode ends and he holds onto you so tightly and securely. He kisses you when the credits roll, your mouths still minty from toothpaste... and instead of heaving you up to go back to your room, maybe he just pulls the couch throw up around you so you can both go to sleep on the couch, wrapped up just like that.

(And when you wake up, bright sun streaming into the living room, you tell him, the next time he needs a little bit of late night, David Attenborough-fueled catharsis, if he would be so kind as to let you, you would love to sit with him and watch, too.

Cue, a couple weeks later... the both of you crying again at the little fishies videos <333)

      the real reason Jack is desperate to get out of hawkins in that au isn’t because it’s, y’know, hawkins, but because he simply cannot bear one more minute of watching @thecodekeeper more successfully parent these random fucking kids from school while still treating him like garbage >:(

every day is just a really lengthy, excruciating self discussion of 'you are not actually a horrid fairy tale monster looking creature and it's ok to take up space and exist and you're gonna be ok bitch you still have worth it's ok' and I'm very tired all the time

you know a surefire way to make sure ur underage kids aren't on social media? DONT. GIVE. THEM. SMARTPHONES
