Hi, I love your hetalia stuff, and all your headcanons, especially everything with Canada! I was wondering- Have you ever listened to the song 'War Between Brothers' by Heather Dale? It's very emotional, and to my mind really fits the Sevens Years War- Revolutionary War- War of 1812 cycle with the FACE family. Anyway I always enjoys seeing your posts!

Hi! First of all, thank you so much for this sweet message, I truly appreciate it. 💖

And no, I really like Heather Dale (some of her songs are among my all-time favourites) but I had never listened to this song in particular, thanks for sharing!

I completely agree with your assessment. First of all, there's this general melancholic, regretful tune – because yeah, while everybody's angry and fighting for what he thinks he's right, what ultimately prevails and is left is the pain of the broken bonds.

Moreover, there are some lines that really make me think of each character, especially in the Arthur–Alfred–Matthew dynamic.

"This one's a father – And this one's a son" – obviously, that's Arthur and Alfred. (I know I always say I see them more like brothers than father and son, but with Arthur being such an older/more mature brother that the lines are quite blurred.)

Then, there's "This one's a bastard – And this one's a king – Both fought for power and what it would bring" which reminds me of the two of them as well (Alfred as the rising "bastard", the one who wasn't supposed to hold that power but who seized it by force. Arthur being the king, at that moment, is instead quite obvious.)

Alfred's and Matthew's dynamic isn't left aside, either. The stanza "These two were blinded – By jealousy's flame – One pointing fingers, the other to blame – One lived in rage and the other in shame – But which was the better – Of what they became?" is all about them in those moments. I love how everything can be applied to both of them, too. (Shame apart. Shame belongs more to Matthew, not to Alfred – even so, he can feel shame as well in some moments.) Two brothers who are so different yet in some ways more alike than they would like to admit. Not to mention, that unanswered question... It's such an important part of their conflict as well.

But of course, the two lines that are more impactful are the recurring "Kin laid with kin in the funeral pyre" and the final "But fighting each other, they lost everything". In this story, nobody died. Even so, that fight – for how just it was – ultimately just brought division and pain for everybody involved, so this feels perfectly fitting.

Thanks again for sharing this!

Oonagh coverrrr I love her . Space kerrang should be real

uniform studies + kit lists

hi nix

i can imagine years later megumi is still trying to get reader to leave sukuna

like even in the unlikely scenario where she’s pregnant, he’s asking if she’s sure about this and that she can do so much better

no 100%. in the scenario that reader ever does get pregnant much later in yuujis life, I can just imagine 13 year old megumi walking next to you and giving you the strangest look. says something on the lines of "It's never to late to leave." and you are like heavily pregnant at this point LOL

yuuji gets so annoyed by it its so funny. he is like that is my niece??? you are not leaving either of them??? he still tries to defend his brother but megumi never listens

Had a thought: what if Clone Wars where everything is the same, except the clones have bigger canines.

And not for any reason other than the Kaminoans reading up on how strong human bites are and being like, “Okay but what if we triple that?” “It’d be good in close combat situations with no other weapons.” “It just looks cool.”

gonna post some reference scribbles for how i draw the Huldra Brothers (mix of observations from official canon art/renders and headcanons/artistic liberty) as well as expose my "anime-era influenced my art" side

How have we forgotten that Crosshair almost killed Hunter while freed from the chip’s influence?

“Hunter never wanted to go back for Crosshair, the audacityyy!”

Who in their right mind would want to go back for a sibling who tried to stab them to death. Honestly. In what real world scenario would that actually happen.

PJO: we need to recognize the value of the minor gods. The Olympians are important, sure, but the minor gods do a lot of work in maintaining and assisting the pantheon, have their own kids and deserve to be seen and valued just as much

HoO: Back at it again with Olympian-only nonsense!

yeah

it kinda kills me that the "we were all scared" speech in band of brothers (the more heartwarming show) is about being a perfect killing machine and accepting the fact that you're already dead, while the "we're all afraid" speech in the pacific (the more brutal show) is about being there for your fellow soldiers and believing in the goodness of what you fight for.

Echo and Fives should have gotten some sibling moments

Echo: ...cresh?

Fives:, no, two moons

Echo: *nods sagely* droideka.

Fives: *nods back* blue milk.

Rex: ....im, sorry???

Or

Fives: hey, FUCK YOU

Echo: no you know what, i am calm, collected, seri-- fuck this

Echo: FUCK YOU TOO *swings chair*

Somebody said this is Mike watching Willel reunite in the desert 🤣🤣🤣
