gus is THE funniest kid in the owl house. the rest of them all feel insecure and alone due to experiencing abuse or bullying, meanwhile gus’s problem is that he is simply TOO smart and talented and charismatic for his own good. the reason he feels isolated is because he’s literally better than everyone. when discussing how willow was his first ever friend, he’s like “yeah, she was kind enough to see past the fact that im an incredible genius child prodigy with dangerous levels of swag dripping out of my pockets, and treated me like just a normal kid, which was so generous of her.” and that’s why he’s my favorite :)

It’s Lonely at the Top

Warning: heavy, heavy angst, descriptions of gore

Edward froze, his eyes wide with shock as he watched blood arc through the air in front of him. Every second seemed like an hour as he watched his best friend fall to the ground in front of him. His ears didn’t even register the scream that tore out of his throat. Barry was the only one he had left and now he’s gone just like the others.

Edward’s strength has always been in being the school king. In having resources and connections. After all, a king is useless without his court.

…or is he?

What would happen if all of Edward’s closest friends left one after another?

This concept is vaguely based off of the original Error’s story- how losing his family and the corrupting loneliness of the anti void made him into a glitch.

I’m pretty much torturing a bunch of high school jocks.

The first to go was James. He has always been a little too much like Felix for Edward’s taste. They could all see his betrayal coming from a mile away. That didn’t make it hurt any less. Seeing James’s smirk as he set a new demon upon his former boss, and friend, lit a fiery rage inside of Edward.

The next to go was Louis. No one knew where he went. Asking his family only earned silence or a pitying glance from his siblings. A week after his disappearance, the family vanished entirely.

Justin fell into an obsession and began looking for any leads on Louis’s disappearance. At first Edward enthusiastically joined him, but he soon saw how much this hurt Justin. Justin vanished the day after a confrontation. His body was found washed up on the shore of a lake two days later.

Cody was next to leave. After seeing everything that happened to his friends, his parents were eager to leave that town. He moved just a month after Justin died.

With only Barry left in his once large friend group, Edward grew much more paranoid about his position. A king without his loyal guards is vulnerable, and enemies are bound to take advantage. Eventually Felix decided to declare his war on Edward. He summoned a demon, a large, vicious, freak of nature that resembles a hyper realistic pokemon. Barry tried to defend Edward and it cost him his life.

Seeing his best friend die in front of him was the final straw. Edward snapped. His strings tore the demon and Felix to shreds. Standing over that twitching, bloodied corpse made Edward feel GOOD. Felix got the retribution he deserved and he kept his place at the top.

He wanted more of this feeling.

Ahahaha random fixation over, I’m going to sleep

Shen Yuan getting transported into pidw isn't "the system punishing him for being a lazy internet hater," but instead representative of "step 1 of the creative process: getting so mad at something you decide to go write your own fucking book" in this essay I will

#svsss #scum villian self saving system #shen qingqiu #shen yuan #the fact that people think scum villain #-a series that examines and criticizes common tropes in fiction-#is somehow against criticism or being a little hater is wild to me #especially since shen qingqiu never gets punished for being a hater #heck- he's still a little hater by the end of the series #he mostly gets punished for treating life like a play and like he and the people around him are characters #(or in other words- he suffers for denying his own wants and emotions and his own sense of empathy)#I think some of y'all underestimate how much writing/art is inspired by creaters being little haters #like example off the top of my head-#the author of Iron Widow has been pretty vocal about the book being inspired by their hatred of Darling in the Franxx #I think my interpretation of Shen Yuan's transmigration is also supported by the fact that this series is an examines writing processes #side note- though i understand why people say Shen Yuan is lazy and think its a valid take it still doesnt sit right with me #i am probably biased because my own experiences with chronic pain and depression and isolation #but ya- i dont think Shen Yuan is lazy so much as he is deeply lonely and feels purposeless after denying parts of himself for 20ish years #like yall remember the online fandom boom from covid right?#being stuck completely alone in bed while feeling like shit for 20 days straight does shit to your brain #the fact that no one came to check on him + he wasn't exactly upset about leaving anyone behind supports the isolation interpretation too #+in the skinner demon arc he describes his life of being a faker/inability to stop being a faker now that he's Shen Qingqiu #as “so bland he's tempted to throw salt on himself” and “all he could do is lay around and wait for death” (<-paraphrasing)#bro wants to be doing stuff but is stuck in paralysis from repeatedly following scrips made by other people #another point on “Shen Yuan isn’t lazy” is just the sheer amount of studying that man does #also he did graduate college- how lazy can he really be #he doesnt know what hes doing but he at least tries to actively train his students #and he actually works on improving his own cultivation + spends quite a bit of time preping the mushroom body thing #+he's experiencing bouts of debilitating chronic pain throughout all this #but ya tldr: Shen Yuan's transmigration is an encouragement to write and not a punishment and also i dont think its fair to call him lazy

My page for @destinytriofanzine! I drew something about kids always dreaming of far off places

[id in alt!]

#kingdom hearts #kh #ahh this one was so hard to draw; i never know how to combine a bunch of scenes in one picture without it looking cheesy #just threw a bunch of waves and leaves and birds on top and called it a day haha. it might be a bit too busy though #the white line going up the center is supposed to be a trail left behind by the gummi ship! it connects to the ship in the bg at the top #it's kinda meant to evoke little kids dreaming of other places-> getting older and earnestly making the raft to try to reach the dream #->the gummi ship as a premonition of how they'd actually reach the dream in the future. i guess? idk how to explain #and i really wanted to have kairi's expressions be really similar but changing subtly from wonder to worry when she's older #the boys are just max enthusiasm the whole time #but yeah. something something Symbolism and hopefully it's at least kinda pretty if it doesn't make sense #i'm just super proud to have been part of this project! everyone's work is just amazing #the destiny kids give me this soft feeling of kinda lonely nostalgia. it's nice to have a book full of that #very wistful looking through it #fan art #my art #project stuff

Jason after a certain incident

@bonerot19 enjoy :)

Poll is in the weblogs (why did my spellcheck change it to that???) Ahem REBLOGS to decide what comfort to give him, so far the cat distribution system is winning

#Now that I'm looking at it I'm seeing everything wrong with this drawing #So I need to post it right now before I try to fix it into oblivion #Anyway #I don't feel like I nailed the emotions in this one so prepare for more drawings of Jason suffering #Soapysudz art #As I chase the high of getting emotions onto the....screen? Since its digital art ig you could say that #soaps art #jason todd fanart #Batarang incident #To me patching yourself up is such a lonely and painful thing #The pain being caused by your dad choosing to throw a knife at your neck to save your murderer must be so much worse on top of that

Steven wants a cutie mark ig

#steven universe #su au #human steven #pink steven #I usually go into more detail abt Star’s angst on Homeworld more than Steven’s #but they both suffer from two different sides of loneliness #Star is so worshipped and feared at the top that he can’t really make any actual connections #and Steven is too below everyone that nobody bothers to consider him someone worth making a connection with.#not to mention the fact that in a society where fulfillment and belonging is seen as how you can contribute through your role #it’s very difficult for a non-gem to feel anything but meaningless and burdensome sometimes.#poor lonely clown guy #at least Star gives good hugs

Cannot imagine how people who haven't played The Last of Us are handling the HBO show right now because oh baby let me tell y'all: everything you just saw in Episodes 1 and 2 is some of the lighter stuff the plot's gonna throw at you.

#The Last of Us #TLOU #We're gonna get to the bloater and then Frank and then Henry & Sam and then Ish's story and by the time we hit David it's all gonna be BAD #Sara's death is the lone outlier but by the time we hit winter we as a community are gonna be longing for death #Seta speaks #EDIT: I forgot they’re covering Riley too so congrats new viewers you get treated to bonus traumas!#top posts

Checking on the guest room every other day like,

Sorry for the lazy ass editing but anyway I've been needing to make a visual for this joke

Now I'm not saying that I always picture this man as Yuu, but I have definitely become obsessed with the raw comedic potential of Tommy Shelby being isekai'd into magic college surrounded by people he actually Cannot boss around

#twst #twst mc #twst yuu #twst memes #twst yuu headcanons #twst guestroom #twisted wonderland shitposts #guarantee he'd immediately get into a fistfight with azul and probably lose #because he may be the hardest mob boss in england but that does not prepare him for a sea monster who is also a wizard #I could see him maybe recruiting some of the freshman but he'd probably regret it #he can't even pull the respect your elders card cause he'd instantly get 'young man'd' by Lilia #Imagine this guy dealing with Malleus' lonely prince shit in the middle of the night #picture him dealing with the overblots #he's been the top running joke around here for months #fandom drivel #i don't know if i need to specify that this is not a romantic headcanon but might as well be on the safe side
