hey, generally speaking i am pro-pirating but there is post going around with a free version of Maus by Art Spiegelman on a google doc and i am genuinely asking you all to not reblog it. Art Spiegelman is still alive. he still makes money off of Maus. and what is being monetized is his generational trauma as the son of a holocaust survivor. please either buy Maus or get it from the library (libraries also benefit the author and when more people request or check out a book it communicates to the library that they need more copies). pirating Maus is very different than pirating a marvel movie or reading a google doc of a book no longer in print. please use critical thinking.

Anyway does anyone else listen to Love of My Life by Leannna Firestone and imagine an Itaru animatic where Tonooka is the ex but the new relationship is Mankai.
Even if just the first verse and chorus:
I waited 'til the third date to bring you up It's never a good time to discuss the ghost of relationships past But I told him your name and how you just didn't like me that much And with bated breath, braced for impact But he stayed right where he was He's made friends with the skeletons in my closet The elephants in my room He makes it a little bit easier to be haunted by you Now that it's over, I'm glad that it is Now that you're gone, I'm glad that you went Because losing you confirmed, sometimes Breakups are blessings in disguise Losing you only helped me find, the love of my life
&, & these parts:
I used to think, that you were it And that when you left, I'd never love again Just for me to meet the right person at the right time The reincarnated love of my life
Thought I'd never love anyone like I loved you 'Til I did
Because it's about to be on loop for me as I try to flesh out this animatic I'll never make
I really gotta stop associating romantic break up songs w/ Itaru & Tonooka or no one's gonna believe I read them platonically & prefer that read of them.

I said I'd link the song but after looking for and listening to it I don't want to so take the few lyrics that have the vibe I'm talking about:
I'm not part of the town, not born to be queen Just somebody hopelessly in-between But then who could ever compare? Of course they're gonna think I'm just the spare Well, I won't care
So I'm the extra button on a coat In case another one comes loose But if I have to be a button Why can't I be a button that's of use? So I'm a rusty horseshoe hanging up Over somebody's old barn door And I'll be hanging there forever Just wishing the horse had one leg more
Someday I'll find my thing The thing that's all my own That thing that makes me part of something Not just all alone
I wanted to add explanation but I blah right now. I'm gonna try at least a little. Okay so as you can see my view of Navel is someone who wants a place but understands he's playing a losing game for the crown. Additionally, I'm gonna make double use of that last part, see pre-story, it's his work and dedication going into helping Orange, because it makes him a part of something with someone. But also I do think he differentiates himself from Orange slightly in that frame point. then I think after Senribana Monogatari he's again in the same boat as Orange, he's gonna want to sorta find his own thing with in the same box he's in.
I should really just make another Navel post. I'll get around to it.
My brain: So what if-
Me: No.
My brain: I'm just saying
Me: Don't say it.
My brain: Alright alright fine I won't say it.
Me: Good.
No one:
My brain: WhatifTangerineAnna,CitronElsa.
Me: ugggghhh

Please help the family of a non-verbal autistic child (who has been losing weight because he only eats certain kinds of food, largely unavailable during this time) leave Gaza!

CONTEXT: the gaza freedom flotilla coalition aims to bring emergency aid (food, medical supplies, etc) to a starving and besieged gaza. activists and journalists from all over the world (including diaspora palestinians like dylan) will be participating, and they know the risk — in 2010 turkish activists attempting a similar mission had their flagship raided by israeli forces, who murdered 10 activists aboard (9 died on site and another died later from critical injuries).

Part 2 in fixing the fact that I haven't spoken about Orange & Navel in a minute: Orange.
Okay so. I don't think I've already said this so here we go. I will take no disagreements on the core details of this (but I will gladly accept ideas and stuff for details around this.) (Just remembered year four is currently story-ing, oop. I doubt they'll say anything but I'm ready to fight canon on this too)
Once they get past the awkwardness of the Prince compettetion and stuff, Orange is indeed one of Citron's biggest fans, and it's really pushing biggest.
However! Orange would rather bite off his own tongue than admit that outloud, especially to Citron. Tsuzuru and probably Azuma have picked up on it though. Kinda hard for them not to with Orange being very open with Azuma and probably asking Tsuzuru why Citron doesn't have more lines in the plays. (Yes it's sorta in an annoying fan kinda way but it's okay because it's Orange.)

Didn't really want to say this because I'm still trying not to promote anything Disney but I haven't spoken about Navel or Orange in so long it's adding to my inner rage. So.
Navel. If I recall the song correctly(I'm on my phone on the mobile website I'll look for the song and add it/check it later) I believe Anna's cut song The Spare while not 1:1 is Navel vibes to me. Like I think I mentioned this before (in my My Grand Plan is a Tangerine & Navel song explanation post I think) but Navel feels like, to me, someone who does indeed want to he seen and considered important for things but knows he's just not seen as much as Citron and Orange. He worked alongside Orange and was acknowledged to an extent but in reality he barely had a bigger chance than Tangerine at getting the spot. The likelyness was so little. And in a way he was sort of an extension of Orange.
Gosh I love Navel and I love the Zafran Princes so I'm sorry that's not more coherrant (i'm sorry I can't spell unless that's right but it looks wromg so sorry if I am wrong) and I'm so sorry Orange this post is not about you and idk if the one I've had in my head is anywhere near that.
Anyway if they were my side characters I'd give Navel a self [word that's not quite discovery but like sorta is and sorta means to show individuality or something like that] arc part 2. (Part 2 because in my head he already had a part 1 growing up. See when he figured he'd always be considered and seen with Orange he wanted to still make strides in being his own person even if they were little things like the way he wears his hair. (I'd say I can't believe I'm putting this in a reblog thread(?) almost no one will see but like. It was somewhat already mentioned in my attempt to design him that no one has seen so this is fine actually)
My brain: So what if-
Me: No.
My brain: I'm just saying
Me: Don't say it.
My brain: Alright alright fine I won't say it.
Me: Good.
No one:
My brain: WhatifTangerineAnna,CitronElsa.

I really badly want to talk about and share my fics omg. I don't know how to function sometimes they're just like bursting to get out of me.
Also I'm reblogging this because I need the list in easy view. I want to write a list of songs I associate with these fics but some of them don't have one yet
Past me is a joke! In one of my draft posts, I mention I have a CitoIta fic idea that might be larger but would likely be able to include Izumi and the rest of the Spring Troupe. What idea was that?
The only one I can think of is thief!Itaru but I don't think I developed nearly enough to make a claim like that. Did I have a really good idea I forgot to write down?
