in internet posts it is easy to cut them out of your life. they are hurting you! they aren't listening to you!
they held your hair back. they lent you lipstick. they held your hand at the train station and got you home safe. they rounded on your bully, got loud, said get fucked, spitting-mad in your defense.
they also cut the hair off again. told you that you should really think twice before wearing something like that. took you for granted. took your insecurities and threw them in your face again.
you know logically it should be easy. all the internet advice comments always read it will feel better. like an equation - if a person is rotten, you just remove them. you pull the tooth that's hurting.
but it was never a big flare-up moment. you don't live in a sitcom. they never tried to take your boyfriend or steal from your apartment. they showed up to birthdays and they wrote songs about you and bring you water without you asking. once you found out they carry an emergency inhaler for you, even though you haven't had an asthma attack in years - just in case.
where is the line? people fuck up. sometimes they fuck up badly. sometimes people have raw personalities, like a powerline, and being around them is dangerous. addicting. sometimes they can't help themselves, but you know they're trying. sometimes they are just rough-around-the-edges. sometimes they don't even realize how they sounded when they said that. sometimes it's just - you've both loved each other for so long now, the way this thing hurts goes back to the root.
and that's the fucked up part. you have pushed your fingers against the sweetheart of memory. things these days are electric, tense, harrowing. they didn't used to be. there were a lot of good days in there. sometimes you want to just close your eyes and say can this be over yet? do we still need to be fighting?
doing that would give up any chance you get of getting an apology, but you don't always know that you need an apology, you love them. once they flaked on your birthday party. once they told you to get over it, people are always dying. they also let you crash on their couch for a week after the breakup, handfeeding you when you were so sad you couldn't eat. they are also judgmental about everything, occasionally react to banal statements with an attitude that is weird and fiery. they also love you like a lighthouse sometimes, so strong they cut the storm like lightning.
but the problem is that you might be storm. you might be the thing that needs breaking. what if you are two forces who are desperately, horribly drawn to each other, shaped by the other person's passions, and both good for each other and bad in equal measure.
what if you're both just people, and you're no saint neither.
just cut them off! swallowing the saltwater, you catch yourself in the mirror. you've been shaking more than usual. there's an ache in you that is oblique, loud, impossible to soothe. is this what it looks like? when life is "easier"?
your mouth will always have a hole, is the thing, if you remove the tooth.
#spilled ink#warm up#writeblr#this is about someone specific but feel free to blorbo on main.#tbh this is familial for me so that is an element but it's also about childhood best friends#and probably about ur enemies to lovers blorbo#(but i want to specifically say if ur partner is like this. not necessarily a good partnership lol.)#(the dynamics at play in familial/friend relationships feel equally important and in some ways are HARDER to escape.#bc we can see that this is a potentially toxic romantic foundation.#but in family ? ...... it's toxic and it doesn't stop u from loving them. bc u always have.#and i think that makes it harder. by a lot. which is what this is referencing).#but genuinely and really truly forever feel free to tag ur potentially toxic enemies to lovers on this and all my poetry#here i'll do one for u - adora & catra :x

it’s just like. how many captain holt lines of dialogue live rent free in my head? how many scenes have made me get emotional & watch & rewatch & ponder over them? it was such a big deal to have an openly gay black male character whose gayness was never the butt of the joke on tv in the early 2000s. then rosa diaz was literally the first character I ever recall hearing say the words “I’m bisexual” on a popular network tv show & captain holt’s compassionate support of her was this thing that just was just simply not often a thing portrayed quite how it was on b99 on television in my experience at the time among multiple lgbt main characters. not only that but I don’t want to reduce raymond holt’s influence to his sexuality. he was funny in a unique, dead pan way that again just totally manages to cement itself in so many peoples consciousness. how many people can hear “BONE?” bellowed in disapproval in their heads? 😂 or picture the pineapple slut shirt? & how many people with complicated relationships with their dad latched onto the jake & holt found family dynamic that was just so beautifully written & acted? brooklyn has constantly been on in the background of my life because it’s one of those shows you can just watch endlessly & never get tired of. hundreds & hundreds of hours of my life have been spent chuckling at this show. & I’m just one sit com fan. we’re talking about one of the most influential sit coms of the modern age. I hope andre had some idea how much he meant to so so many people.
#andre braugher#brooklyn 99#I’m sorry celebrity deaths don’t usually hit because it’s like well I can still enjoy their work idk I didn’t know them personally#but like. Brooklyn 99 has been such a huge part of my life. such a constant background element#I’ve seen so many episodes enough times to practically rehearse them#& Andre braughers acting truly is just so genius#he’s so talented both comedically & dramatically. what an icon

I love the weapon diversity in hsr because not only do we have traditional weapons like swords, polearms, bows, guns, etc. we also have cool sci-fi weapons like laser tomes (or whatever you'd call Pela's weapon), gun spears????(Bronya why are you so cool) and such
And we also have like. Normal Items that are either modified or just. magic. for some reason. like Welt's cane, Serval's guitar and whatever the fuck Himeko's buzzsaw briefcase thing is
Or, my absolute favorite, Gepard using his sister's guitar case??????? What
#special shoutout to bailu who just uses her tail#and silver wolfs electric blade/blaster thing. truly the most gamer weapon ever#and while i dont like to bring up comparisons to genshin#(bc hsr & gi are very different games)#it does mean that hsr avoids the shinobu situation where a character is clearly designed with a certain weapon in mind#but they cant actually wield it bc its not an available weapon type#(on that topic i do also like that hsr designs are more diverse)#(as unlike genshin you cant really tell which type/element a character is just by looking at them)#(genshin tends to give them certain color schemes that aligns with their element)#(which just. straight up isnt a thing in hsr)#anyway thats enough rambling time to tag#pelageya sergeyevna#pela#bronya rand#<feels weird tagging her as that. shes always bronya zaychik in my mind#welt yang#serval landau#himeko#<does she have a last name in hsr?#gepard landau#honkai star rail#hsr#xander rambles

SUPER DARK TIMES [THE FROST — MITSKI]
this movie's had my brain in a vice grip all week
#super dark times#sdt#josh templeton#zach taylor#daryl and charlie are also there but this aint about them#well it is about daryl. it’s *all* about daryl at the end of the day. but ykwim#im simply a sucker for stories about best friends where everything gets sosososo fucked up 🤷♂️#sam draws shit#sam edits#<- yeah it gets both tags i opened after effects for this#this movie fell into tht sweet spot for me where it was the right combo of compelling characters who felt Real with great visuals but also#with enough moments i was like ‘what. why?’ about that it keeps me thinking trying to decide how i feel about/interpret elements of it#like. i enjoyed it but it's flawed in the exact ways a piece of media needs to be for it to rotate around in my brain for a while#also i truly did NOT have the time to draw this i have so much other shit to get done but i couldn’t focus until#i got this idea out of my head so. here we are

General thoughts after watching Season 1 of Netflix's Avatar: The Last Airbender (spoilers may be present)
It's not bad. It's weird, but it's not bad.
No one asked for this.
No one asked, but we got it anyway. So what did we get?
It's not a 1:1 remake. I don't think, despite everything people have worried and griped about before the show's release, anyone wanted that either. It doesn't retain the same character arcs for everyone. Not just Sokka, but everyone.
At the same time, they still have arcs.
They're weird, they feel weird, because this show does what the Shyamalan movie doesn't, and makes an honest effort to capture the essence of the animated show, of the characters, of the world, and there is respect in its efforts.
There are musical motifs from the original. The set designs are out of the original. Many scenes are shot exactly like the original as homages.
And yet, storylines are merged together, elements from later seasons are introduced earlier, character interactions happen differently, character motivations are presented differently, and that feels weird.
We know the motions but when we the audience try to follow them, the show changes its direction and pulls a weird flex out of left field.
I won't say I agree with every major and minor change made, but I'm not enraged or disappointed in the same way as I was (and many of us were) after seeing the movie.
Instead, I'm more inclined to see where these new threads intend to go, and how the story we all know and love can be told in a different way.
Roku had barely a presence in this season, whereas in the original, he was more or less Aang's spiritual teacher. Instead, we've felt more from Kyoshi and Kuruk and Yangchen, and Aang has felt lost in his spiritual journey as well as his physical one.
Ozai, who was just a shadowy one-dimensional nightmare for most of the original first book, is now a more fleshed out figure, but one of confusing motivations. It's not the tonal whiplash of the movie, of the Ozai who legitimately worried and cared about Zuko's well being while also having still scarred and banished him, but one who is playing a 4-D chess game with his kids as the pieces and doesn't care who wins so long as one does.
I don't think it was the right call to have Zuko fight back in the Agni Kai before getting burned, but it gives a different dynamic to Zuko and Ozai's relationship that he's not the towering, shadowy Mark Hamill terror Zuko cowers before.
This Zuko seems legitimately convinced Ozai cares about him and all it takes is the Avatar to win his full love back, whereas there's still bitterness in the OG Zuko of book one. He knows Ozai favors Azula over him, he knows he's had to struggle well before being banished.
I also think not casting Dee Bradley Baker was a mistake. But they have time to correct that mistake.
All the kid actors, being green, of course do not stand up to expressive and gorgeous animation with brilliant voice acting. But they are all giving it their best, and I think they have what it takes to grow into the Book 3 Team Avatar if they get the chance.
The music got to me a number of times, particularly the instrumental renditions of "Leaves From the Vine."
Do we need this show? No absolutely not.
We have the original ATLA, and we always will. It's a timeless classic of our generation. Nothing could ever compete with it or ruin it.
However, I do feel like this adaptation is worth giving a chance to stand on its own. It may be far from perfect, but after watching it through, I legitimately want to see where it goes from here. I want to see this cast grow and change in their own ways. I want to see Toph in live action. I want to see Ba Sing Se. I want to see the new directions this story chooses to take to end up in the same place at Sozin's Comet.
But that might not happen if Netflix decides to cancel it, and I think that would be a shame.
I really do think it's worth seeing this show through, for better or worse.
Overall, as a show, I would give it a modest 7/10. (With individual elements skewing higher or lower throughout)
I don't like that it's only 8 episodes, but that's been a trend of other streaming shows also, across platforms, so I cannot fault NATLA alone for that.
You don't NEED to have seen the original to understand what's happening or get key details (unlike SOME adaptations have been doing recently). You can get a complete picture with just this. Is it as pretty or vibrant as the original? No. But it is still a whole picture (or, could be, with all three seasons).
It has great effects, sets, props, choreography, good music. It has SUKI. And JET. and JUNE. And THE Cabbage Man!
AND OMA/SHU ARE LESBIANS! I mean, I see that as an absolute win.
#flowerspeak#long post#atla#avatar the last airbender#netflix avatar the last airbender#natla#netflix atla#I do think two more episodes could have been added for breathing room and more show element inclusions that were mentioned offscreen#but that's a problem I've had with streaming shows as a whole. lacking necessary breathing room#we used to get shows with 20 to 22 episodes each season#and now we are lucky to get double digits at all per season#but overall. i truly enjoyed my watch. and i do want to see more#natla spoilers#Netflix atla spoilers

I'm rewatching the episode where the gang breaks adine out of prison and truly the bad boys in the forge is so wild. the origin of "spring break! I believe in you!" fabian getting his groove back. the power of dance. "everyone knows elven sheets put out fire, Brennan!" "I take all the damage and I take it slow. I feel it all." Lou's triumphant YES! when fabian gets his charisma back. a wild string of events.
#d20#god what a fucking wild episode#my dad walked in when I was watching and he was just so confused#fantasy high#such a great episode#fabian fucks a fire elemental#the boys are anime running#truly just a fucking WILD time.

feeling physically ill over batman reborn dick grayson and his obligation to damian. like their early relationship is built on circumstance and responsibility, not any inherent love or affection. they’re ultimately close bond is honestly more of a byproduct than a specific concerted effort.
(was looking through stuff from this era and what do u know he explicitly says it). the roles of Batman and Robin chafe against them both, the costumes literally and metaphorically do not fit. dick is trying his hardest to prevent gotham from ripping itself apart at the seams right now and the added pressure of custody over a murderous ten year old is not fucking helping. so the evolution of their relationship just gets me, going from this
to this
dick (and damian but in a different direction, bleeds the need to be accepted etc etc) are so desperately trying to maintain a fire through damp kindling. they have no idea what they’re doing as a duo and it shows. but I think that’s what makes the evolution of their relationship so interesting here. dick still extends a degree of patience towards damian despite everything, he affirms him when he can and damian begrudgingly develops a respect for him. damian’s robin was developed in loss and uncertainty, not only did he have to navigate unlearning the toxic values instilled in him from his childhood abuse, he also had to navigate losing a father he was just barely getting to know. even if he wasn’t perfect, dick earnestly tried with him, he didn’t just write him off as unredeemable demon spawn or a nuisance.
damian is initially just another obligation from bruce, a consequence of inheriting his legacy. but eventually he brute forces his way into his heart, just a little. the small glimpses of damian’s innate humanity and kindness that weren’t stamped out of him during his insane childhood become more apparent and the sheer amount of effort he exerts in being ‘normal’ and just himself beyond the bloodshed is painfully obvious. (he straight up comes out and says it).
damian is far from a diamond in the rough, more like bort, but dick is willing to work with that. even if it makes him want to tear his hair out initially, he can’t just throw the kid to the curb or ignore him. he doesn’t give up on him, not because he even necessarily believes in the kid but because he can’t give up. and eventually he warms up to him. he develops that sort of brotherly, almost paternal relationship with him. they never had to do more than tolerate each other really, and yet they did.
#damian wayne#dick grayson#they don’t want anything to do with each other at first not really#their bond is like trying to create super heavy elements#just shooting particles and betting on probability to strike something eventually#and it fucking works#dick is just a fundamentally irrevocably good person it’s insane#100% a better man than me because I simply would’ve given up and TRULY lost my shit at damian

#or smth smth. having a lot of Thoughts. anyways here's the piece i've been working on and sometimes u have to just say Done#there's a lot of thinks but i am maybe a bit tired and so tmr i'll come in and add all the Tags that i'd personally want to get from myself#maybe i'll reblog the extras tmr too. this is an incredibly self indulgent piece + it probably deserves a tag ramble essay or smth#ig for now we see how it stands for itself + in the meantime:#adamandi#beatrix valeria campbell#hello!! i'm back with belated tags yippee!! alright so for funsies i'm going to make it sound like i'm going bonkers over this :3#the eye shine... the glowy eye... it's like phaethon shine but also smth about eyes to windows to the soul and like#there's two beatrixes here! half the soul. lost part doing things specific to the phaethon and here it's portrayed as tearing off her name#because that's really; truly; when it all starts!! also notable for the ghostly beatrix is i did it more painterly and cloaked in shadow and#fading into the bg. i think i was super duper specificish about where the glow comes from! front lighting back lighting beloved!!! like help#let's put it this way- beatrix face always glowy. important parts of paper also glowy. it's just that different elements are turned away#from the viewer by each beatrix!! also also. let's talk about the very gently implied blood and red etcetera#like the red string is canonical and i love personally the whole red strings of fate thing even though it's not Here Applicable exactly but#that definitely was an influence! and also the blood in the bg... i'm starting to think this is a recurring trend. but anyway shadowy bea#the other strings hang while the red string loops!! so like that one string feels almost alive. it's a sort of whimsical i put on the same#as metaphorical glowy eye!! also also the eye is lowkey influenced by the whole idea of Eyes and Spotlights within the show and also glow#as in power as in heyyy you ever think about writing as a visual medium huh#speaking of writing!! there is no beatrix thingy complete in my head without text sorrry but the black text overlays are always so >>> to me#and in the sense of art styles and overlays shoutout to all the black crosshatching outline thingys because For Some Reason in my mind#of all the characters beatrix feels like the bnw ink printed illustrations you get in books idk#fun fact! i spent so long rendering this and that was fine i liked it! but then trying to figure out text to go on the papers was a Thing#i tried to do. but then gave up on! sometimes i have to pick my battles and graphic design is indubitably Not my passion bc Fonts#fun facts about this is i Actually did start with a quick sketch in mind and there's been so many changed elements. in the og the front#paper for instance had 'ardess murders' written on it and the back one said phaethon interviews.. i like the nominee list better it feels#more narrative-esque and less passive than her just holding her writing.! other elements that got discontinued were that#front beatrix was supposed to blur into the other ghostly beatrix but i couldn't do it without sacrificing clarity so... no... no blurry#oh and the red string morphing at the ends to smth more abstract was always there from the start!! og had more floating papers#and also a silhouette of vincent and a scalpel bc 'one who pulls the strings' but that (pun intended)! got cut (hahahahahahaha) (sorry)#used also to be a lot of print room clutter but that got cut to bc compositionally i made beatrix larger (learned lesson from last art)
