A fun thing about Warfarin x Poncirus is that their relationship is long-distance most of the time:

I like to think, that when she's visiting Rhodes for a checkup, she'll let Warfy do whatever experiments on her, feed any mysterious new pillls & cemicals she's come up with, take sips out of her etc, but when her leave ends it Ends, and she simply walks out the door & goes back to her regular dayjob at construction & demolition in Siesta

#arknights #i also like to think they send each other letters when shes away about potential new poncirus studies warfarin could do when they next meet #or something #part time labrat part time long-distance discord kitten #thinking abt them is so fun #funny green oranges bird & the vampire who wants to study her in a lab #enrishment aimed at me specifically

yeah, nah, sorry totk

Guardians are infinitely scarier than gloom hands

#tears of the kingdom #totk #like I’m riding my horse in botw for ambience while I study #And I had a butt clenching moment where I realized my horse headed to central Hyrule #And I almost had a meltdown because there was a guardian in the distance and I stared making my horse go faster #MOVE FASTER RHOAM WE’RE GONNA DIE—#gloom hands do not do that to me at all #Botw guardians are freaking terrifying lol #breath of the wild

supercorptober 2023

“Time expands, then contracts, all in tune with the stirrings of the heart.” ― Haruki Murakami

Or Lena learns to move through the world by actions at every distance. She fall in love with Kara somewhere along the way.

----

When she was little it made sense. The world made sense. And she fit neatly in it.

There was a predictability in it.

In days becoming nights becoming mornings. In peeling pages off the calendar on the wall her mother had hung in the kitchen.

There was a simplicity in it.

In the way it hurt when she tripped over the garden wall and scraped her knee. In how it felt better when her mother kissed the bandage she placed over the cut.

Time and gravity and love all falling into order.

Until the day they don't.

Her mother dies and she doesn't know why.

When she is four she is angry at the water.

She gets older she believe's in God just enough to hate him instead.

One day she learns to hate herself for it instead.

And even when see learns the truth of it, buried somewhere in the science of currents and silt and fluid dynamics — it is easier to keep hating herself.

But it is never really the nature of the universe we are angry at, but ourselves, and the conceptions we try to impose on it.

She tries to remember that.

Tries to ground herself in equations and numbers and theorems that reason with the intention every bit of cause and every bit of effect. The trajectory of planets, the dance of electrons, each with a purpose, a path.

She moves with them.

But less easily.

Less predictably.

Her motion through the world less elegant than the science she covers herself with — buries herself in.

She keeps moving though. Because what else is she to do. The universe pushes her forward with the rest of it.

It is a motion that is mechanical, constant — personal.

She collides with the world and it collides with her, over and over and over.

She tries to make herself bend to meet them, to stretch, to compress so that she can remain whole.

Sometimes the world hits her so hard she can still feel the marks on her skin.

She will learn that it is not always bad to be left changed.

She keeps moving. She keeps moving until moving feels less like she colliding with the world and more like falling through it.

Supergirl pulls her out of the sky.

Supergirl pulls her out of the sky and she doesn't know what to do with that.

She calculates odds and statistics and free body diagrams in her head.

She tries to ignore the feeling in the back of her head and somewhere louder in her chest that utters out quantum equations instead.

Tries to tell herself that this is not action at distance. This is not the movement of particles and quanta. This is one body meeting another — nothing more.

It is something more.

It is something more but action at a distance feels no kinder than action up close.

It is full of chaos and uncertainty.

She tries to fit it neatly into boxes.

Puts Kara neatly into a box too.

And even when the science makes sense, it feels too much like fate, like magic, to believe it.

It takes time to believe it.

It takes time and destruction and time again to be put back together.

The first light of dawn crept through the kitchen window, casting a warm glow over Lena's face as she sat at the table, the cup of tea between her hands keeping them warm against the Autumn air drifting in.

"Morning," Kara murmurs as she enters the kitchen, rubbing sleep from her eyes. The corners of Lena's lips turn up in a small smile at the sight of her

Good morning," she replies, taking a sip of her tea.

Kara stretched her arms above her head, the long figure of her body scattering the light on the floor. She pours herself a cup of tea and settls across from her.

Lena contemplated the predictability of it all – that the sun would rise, that they would find themselves at this table, that they would drink tea together.

It's easier to call it fate or magic.

But it was uncertainty that made it possible. The dance of particles and quanta, and for once she was not just their observer, but the result of their movements.

Lena reached across the table and took Kara's hand in hers. She could feel the warmth of her skin, the steady beating of her heart just beneath.

She gives it a small pull.

Kara leans forward at the motion.

They meet as they always seem to do.

As she always hopes they will.

Kara's lips meet hers, warm and familiar.

Her thumb traces the small scar that sits just behind her ear as her hands wander up to thread themselves in her hair.

She leans into her touch.

Bending, stretching, compressing — is made whole by it.

It feels like colliding.

It feels like falling.

It feels a little bit like magic after all.

Style study! :3

(You can see my oc favoritism XD)

Played with shapes, lack of lineart, brushes.

IM LOVING IT!! Plants are fun to draw when I get the chance to draw them. I may start using this style more in my art until my brain decides to want something else

"Actually, we are worrying unduly," said the Chair of Indefinite Studies. "Sharks have a very undeserved reputation as man-eaters. There is not a single authenticated case of a shark attacking anyone, despite what you may have heard. They are sophisticated and peaceful creatures with a rich family life and, far from being ominous harbingers of doom, have reputedly even befriended the occasional lost traveler. As hunters they are of course very efficient, and a full-grown shark can bring down even a moose with...er..."

He looked at their faces.

"Er...I think I might perhaps have got them confused with wolves," he mumbled. "I have, haven't I?"

They nodded, in unison.

"Er...sharks are the other ones, aren't they?" he went on. "The vicious and merciless killers of the sea that don't even stop to chew?"

They nodded again.

"Oh dear. Where can I put my face...?"

"Some distance from a shark," said Ridcully briskly.

Super Double Bus

Author: MBQ | Artist: girlinthemirrorbluenight

Posting on Wednesday April 3

Castiel Novak's first quarter at UIC had been carefully planned and scheduled out. He had his list of "Re-Entry" classes neatly checked off and had already gotten the academic calendar figured out. He thought he was properly prepared and debriefed for his first freshman outing to the Navy Pier with far too many baby-faced eighteen-year olds, but he'd indulge them. Being a few years older and with some junior college already on his transcripts, he was pretty confident he could handle any curveball these toddlers could throw. But a boyfriend-shaped Dean Winchester quickly proves to be a problem that is rapidly demanding a solution.

Keep reading for a sneak preview!

A notification popping up with a chime interrupted his reverie and he was informed that the party bus had arrived. Or rather: “Votre bus discothèque le super double vous attend. Veuillez appuyer sur ok pour envoyer votre réponse.” Castiel could hear the words like wet jewels rolling around his tongue in his head even if he didn’t quite understand what was being said--yet. He picked out the decipherable cognates and tapped OK on the pop up.

The party had rolled to his door and there was no way out of it.

Outside, the disco bus was a sleek black bus with so much neon Cas squinted in its general direction. The neon wasn’t the garish palette of seedy bars in Atlantic City or the strip malls of southern California. It was a purple-blue palette and looked very modern indeed. His marketing eye picked up all the attention to detail and gauged who their target demo was. He approved of it from a market sense. It still was the last way he felt like spending his first jet lagged night in Paris after a hellish flight. He vaguely wondered what the middle aged lady was doing and almost wished he had followed up on that. He didn’t see a ring on her weathered hand, but that wasn’t a deterrent. Just another obstacle. She wasn’t unattractive and she seemed mellow enough. It would have been enough to get his dad off his ass and maybe he’d have some companionship that wasn’t drunk twenty somethings with their damn selfies, ring lights and perpetual photo sessions. He groaned and clicked a quick, uninspired pic of the disco bus as it rolled to a stop in front of his hotel. He had a second thought that he could have made a montage or reel with the arrival that would have kept him occupied for the most of the evening, but the opportunity had passed.

He pulled up his QR code and held it to the infrared scanner that flared in his blood shot eyes as the doors whooshed open. He considered having a drink. It might take some of the sleep deprived, irritated-at-his-Chuck edge off. It had been a while since he wanted to drink. In fact, his drink with Dean on the rooftop bar had been his last. He had successfully avoided the house parties of his dorm and Dean’s GC knew not to extend him an invite. But tonight he actually felt like drinking. He loosened his blue tie and unbuttoned the top button of his shirt. Maybe a little bit.

"the endgame had never been finished" meaning......kinzo died before he could put this plan of his into motion?

#umineko liveblog #kinzo acted hastily and failed to 'win' over nanjo in the end #meaning that the Something was neither exposed or buried before he died #the 'rushed' part is giving me pause because what could kinzo have rushed?#unless of course he didn't plan on the 1986 family conference being the day he spun the demon's roulette #but then given Everything we need to read all post-prologue kinzo scenes as dubiously authentic #which. actually. this is all leading to a very worrying conclusion specifically about kinzo's role in the epitaph ritual #no tvs in the study........his chess game unfinished.....surely this doesn't actually mean what i think it's implying #because why else would these killings even happen and be involved with the epitaph succession riddle if not for kinzo #like this is obviously his machination but. the metaphors are doing a good job of distancing him #unless this is another way to clue in on the 'dead all along' thing which still hasn't been Actually Confirmed True #ie kinzo had other plans but died before he could amend them so genji is acting out the Kill Everyone part of his will instead #but that leaves the question of what kinzo's unfinished plan is and what the 'rushing' actually means. a lot to consider here........

for like 3 weeks i was wondering why i was sleeping so much and felt listless. and just now I managed to email 3 people and responded to a month old message in the span of an hour because I got back to TAKING MY FUCKIN MEDS..........

#MOTHER FFFFUCKER #to be fair. my doc said I could stop taking them while im on break since i wouldnt need to be constantly pumped on stimulants #im not sure if it was a side effect but i managed to take like 3 different naps in one day and STILL managed to sleep thru the whole night #at least 2 days into my break. the weird thing is i didnt feel more or less rested afterwards. but mentally i think im in a good place rn #to really put the level of awakeness im at rn i feel weirdly confident i could start one piece. also bc of that sick new opening it BANGS #the song is really good and im in love with the animation style. did some digging and it seems one of the lead animators is masato mori #but i could be wrong. it seems he also did some work on mp100 which could explain a lot lol.. he uses smear frames really well to convey #consistent movement and fluidity!!! someone else might have done color design but it works really really well esp with odas style!!#just love the overall vibe and aesthetic and id really love to study it and incorporate a bit of it into my art.. especially the thick #outlines which i think helps to separate characters and objects on screen. though i have to say the style is definitely more suited to #animation bc of the simpleness and smears. maybe that will help me explore shapes and perspective when i draw... i wanna get better #at drawing poses and angles but i have a hard time wrapping my head around space and using perspective guide lines NGHHHH #i wonder if it has to do with my dogshit ability to judge distance. not depth perception but like. judge how far smth is in metres etc #im also wearing an N95 for the first couple weeks back bc of the wave. absolutely NO BODY is wearing a mask its so fucking over #where im sitting ive heard 5 different people coughing probably not into their elbows!!! and im just. head in my fucking hands #there was a kid sitting a couple seats away in class coughing as he pleases and i wanted to grab him in a chokehold so badly. PLEASEE #ive been annoying my family by asking them to mask up and reminding them to bring masks when they go out and showing them news articles #but at least its working bc we ordered some KN95s and my mom is at least taking me seriously so. please dont be afraid to speak up abt your #health. take care of yourself and others however u can!! wear that mask indoors at your maskless friends house!!! stay home when u can!!#im wearing a surgical mask at home too bc my parents have '''a dry throat cough''' and they are so bad at coughing into their sleeves #also im pretty sure dry throat isnt transmissible bc my brother started coughing too so.. i also tested negative but they havent tested yet #im also not a doctor but i have to keep reminding ppl whenever i can that covid and flu work differently. covid is new and too recent to #have nearly as much research done on it. it seems its also compounding so instead of building immunity it weakens the body and spreads to #to other systems which might explain brain fog and muscle weakness. i remember someone early in the pandemic got infected and it messed up #their smell/taste receptors so bad that they cant eat most foods and that stays in the front of my mind when i think abt covid. christ #yapping

honestly for me one of the scariest things about Supernatural is the seeming inevitability of the cycle of violence, John knows this is an appalling way to raise a child but he does it anyway, Sam gets away for a few years only to return loving the job, Dean does to Jack the same things John did to him. and a sizable chunk of that is Chuck forcing them to become the worst versions of themselves but it’s terrifying how they can end up being the very thing they swore never to become

#dfvq liveblog #dfv queue #dfvq spn #spn5x13 #cycle of violence #fuck a chuck #this house is a fucking nightmare #forced to live bad writing #cursed by the narrative #john winchester’s a+ parenting #dean studies #cw child abuse #aristotle checking his nails smugly in the distance #imagine taking sam seriously as a character #you used me for character development

sirius: glowing; the brightest star in the sky, of an irreplaceable animal grace. rolls of parchment torn apart, letters of love to a boy he loved, a man he resented. madness lies deep within him, and in the beauty of his face, in the curve of his jaw, he sees his mother. he'd draw all over it, rogue scratches, if that meant he wouldn't be her son anymore. cheap beer, needles in his skin, running in the dark and blood trickling down his face; maybe then he'd feel something. sirius, glowing, passion and love and stars, but even the brightest burn away, scorching, imminent.

regulus: little king; green around his neck, his destiny a weight around his chest. chaining him, heavy on his heart. yellowing books, dust on its pages, a memory of past, a telling of the future. imperfect perfection, neat handwriting on scattered letters and ink-stained fingers, a quiet betrayal signed rab, a scream dying in the back of his throat. a plague of an aching heart, and quietness that brings a strange comfort. a skull-headed serpent, long fingers, pressed against cold piano tiles, and loneliness. regulus, little king, a young boy with a soul so old.

#i said i'd be posting the black brothers tomorrow but i just couldn't help myself #their dynamic is also something really interested that i would love to see more of and i'd really like to see the motives of the distancing #<- between them #if you want to see anyone else feel free to let me know! this is a semi aesthetic semi character study thing so it's what i like #sirius black #regulus black #regulus&sirius #the black brothers #my writing
