ppl seem to like the idea of harry courting draco or harry doing big public displays of affection to ask him out (think promposals). but i feel like he'd be so awkward at dating. he doesn't quite know what to do with or show physical and emotional affection, the weasleys give him bad advice on romance, he's also oblivious when ppl are interested in him.

what he does have is earnestness and determination - he makes the first move on accident, just bursts out his feelings, brave and embarrassed.

draco knows all about courting and respects tradition, but he's not the type to make the first move (not anymore at least, not like when he was a kid, where running to his parents for safety and comfort was a luxurious option). he's calculating and weighs his options - what if he confesses but harry doesn't like him? what if he confesses and harry DOES like him? what if harry likes him, but doesn't like dating him? he's more hesitant and guarded with his feelings, but is more likely to show his affection towards loved ones.

harry asks him out in the middle of a conversation, just because he loves watching how passionate draco gets about something he loves. even after weeks of dating, draco insists on courting him the "proper way", showering him with gifts, writing letters that make harry blush, leaving loving post-its all over harry's home and work desk, delivering anonymous flowers, publicly asking if he can escort harry home (they're both embarrassed). he's touchy feely too, which harry isn't used to, but physical contact becomes easy and second nature now with draco. harry doesn't quite get the courting, yet still loves it.

harry: you already have me, draco 😊😆

draco: i still want to woo you though 🥹😤

#harry is earnest and determined in life but always had a bigger responsibility to be a hero #romance and physical affection are just kinda like. there in the back of his head #still trying to figure out what he wants and trying to express that #yet he's also touch starved and touch deprived #draco knows exactly what he wants but w/out $ and status he doesn't know how to get it #he's a very prideful person who takes a bad hit and gets humbled and becomes a better yet still prideful person #anyway this is supposed to be a cute idea of drarry courting ways #fics where harry figures out what he wants bc he's never wanted before >>> #drarry #harry potter #draco malfoy #drarry blurb #drarry headcanons #writing

I had ScoutDrone3 up on the ceiling of the compartment, and it watched Ratthi glance back at me. I don’t know what he saw; my face felt normal. But Ratthi has watched me work on a lot of stuff, and I guess there was something about me that told him I was busy.

[Image ID: A 5-panel comic of a scene from System Collapse. In panel one, Tarik and Ratthi are sitting next to each other at the front of a shuttle, with Murderbot visible behind them. Tarik is pointing a thumb over his shoulder and saying "Does SecUnit wanna weigh in on this?". Panel two is framed from behind them, with both of them turned around in their chairs. Panel three shows Murderbot, sitting and staring intensely at the floor. Panel 4 is back on Ratthi and Tarik, with Tarik looking slightly confused. In Panel 5 Ratthi looks at him and says "It's working on something right now." /end ID]

#theres a version of this comic where murderbot has a really >>:I expression #but it says its face felt normal so i had to reel myself in #im a coward i know #anyway i love this interaction #ratthi being able to tell mb is doing Busy Feed Things just by looking at it #to be loved is to be known guys amen #murderbot #the murderbot diaries #murderbot fanart #system collapse #system collapse spoilers #stuff i made

#doodles #kingdom hearts #roxas #axel #olette #aromantic #asexual #aroace #do i tag pence. hes in the background of one panel #ehhhh sorry pence no tag for you #also not tagging soriku and namixi #i mean by the logic of 'theyre in one panel so i wont tag them' i also shouldnt tag axel but. he has dialogue so #anyways i have a very irrational love of olette whenever i need a random side character in a kh comic? olette #i think she uses webmd. anyways im done talking about olette #so let me clarify about this comic #im aroace. this is all just things ive thought before #im not saying in any way these thoughts are real. theyre just thoughts #thats why it ends with 'but there isnt. its just me.' there IS nothing wrong with being aroace. even if it feels like it sometimes #im not trying to send a message im just trying to express a feeling ive had for a while #anyways. the aroace community is super positive and i like that. but not everything i feel about it is that positive #sometimes it feels like im missing something yknow #this comic seems like its about roxas. but its about me. congrats youve been fooled #drafted something similar to this for aro week but didnt finish it in time so this is spiritually part of asaw 2024 #btw sorry im not posting as many drawings lately #schools kinda stressful im pretty tired and busy most the time #i am throwing this drawing to you like a slab of meat to a pack of hungry dogs. take this meager ration in these trying times #alright i think thats it bye now

sorry sometimes i think about mako and my heart hurts so much. this kid raised himself and his brother on the streets in homelessness and utter poverty from eight through fifteen, promptly after seeing the violent death of his mother and father. he turned to the triple threats because they couldn't survive as a pair of wretched kids without any adult support, and the environment forced him to turn into the exact character that killed his parents in a terrible twist of irony. and after sheer-fucking-luck hits and they aren't homeless anymore, their livelihood wavers on the outcome of what's a literally game to everyone but them; and after things are finally starting to look up and their team is going places and things just might be okay, his gradually stabilizing world unceremoniously expands and everything goes to shit.

and the city that chewed him up and spat him back out, ruined him as a child and took away his ability to stay afloat in a true sense of normalcy as an adult — when it's on the verge of destruction and falling to pieces before his eyes, he gives himself to save it with the full expectation to die. he went from the kid who didn't and couldn't care about anything outside of himself and his brother, to finding redemption for his younger self in his police work despite its injustice against him, to willingly sacrificing himself to a world that had never loved him.

he's a desperate people pleaser, socially and emotionally stunted for the adult he had to be as a kid, unable to navigate interpersonal relationships easily yet still trying his damned hardest. he's intensely and entirely devoted to the things that matter to him and for so long it was only him, bolin, and ensuring their survival — yet by the end, that devotion has expanded to protecting the rest of the world. he starts out entirely self-reliant and ends in trusting the people he cares about to know their own needs, to be able to take care of themselves, to be okay without him despite having spent so much of his life defined by his role in others' well-being.

just. what the fuck i'm such a big fan of this fictional guy and i'm unashamed about it at this point. also let him cry please (if you won't i'll do it i'll let him cry)

#lychee's brain trash #mako lok #mako tlok #sorry for the shitpost i don't do a lot of those i realize #how tf did this guy not had a massive break down in canon at any point #nd like;; he never shows resentment for the unfairness of it all #he doesn't ever use his past to excuse any of his choices/actions that are influenced by it #which is pretty intrinsically linked to his relationship fumbles #he just quietly holds himself accountable and probably mildly despises himself haha #as much as i don't care for the love triangle it really does make complete sense in accordance to his backstory #anyway this is just a roundabout way of me expressing my salt at people writing him off as a malicious asshole lol #i literally cannot articulate the intense complex things his conjured up existence makes me feel #this does not even scratch the surface there is SO MUCH #i need to actually write the fifty fics that exist to my brain otherwise all these thoughts will never see the sun #trust that one day the avatar!mako au will emerge from my drafts;;; #and. you know. that one shot i've had in wip for the past 2.5 years #and the four other oneshots that will probably never be converted into actual words

Started this months ago but procrastinated hard bc I didn't want to draw backgrounds </3

#there was another page to this but i had to cut it out bc of image limit </3 #anyway. finding out how to express urself through clothes is a part of every teenagers life and i imagine itd be particularly hard for ryne #given the Identity Issues shes had for so long #gaias gonna help tho. shes good at this stuff. ryne just isnt sure what she wants yet #also ik ryne has accepted the oracle of light title #when theyre discussing the oracle of light stuff here its more like. the duty thats been associated with it for so long #and the memories of the minfilias in-between ryne & the OG minfilia #like its not 'the oracle of light ryne' now its 'ryne the oracle of light' yk #like her identity as the oracle is secondary to her own personal identity #her role as the oracke is not what defines her. it is a part of her but its not what she IS yk. does that make sense #anyway. enough rambling ill never stop if i continue #ryne waters #gaia #rynegaia #gaiaryne #not necessarily but I SAY SO SO IT IS #final fantasy #final fantasy 14 #final fantasy xiv #ff14 #ffxiv #art #my art #xanders art #digital art #fan art #xander being insane about ryne #as always

We talked about making it I'm sorry that you never made it And it pains me just to hear you have to say it You knew the game and played it It kills to know that you have been defeated I see the wires pulling while you're breathing . . .

#ransara #ranmaru kageyama #sara chidouin #yttd #your turn to die #kmgsn #kimi ga shine #shadowart #NOTES TIME!!! #so i wanted this to directly parallel the moment where midori took maple back to the operating table to “fix” her #aka mold her into a killing machine for his own benefit #i like thinking about sara and midori parallels #and i think it's no coincidence that so much of chapter 3 focuses on a theme of toxic romantic feelings #kinda like how ch2 has a strong theme of family? but anyways #something else i wanted to do was show ranmaru's expression halfed between endeared and something more sinister #such as when we see his eyes go white after killing alice/reko #overall it's just kind of a really cool metaphorical piece i had fun doing #“fixing” not as in “making better” but as in “making how i want” #oh and of course the arrangement of wires parallels his victim video LOL #kio dont look #hi kio if u looked #which i bet you did and then scrolled past but still read the tags #or maybe u will look at it with ur eyes?!?! woah.... #anyone smoke weed in this threa

[teamsasukes]

the chunin exams arc was so interesting for how it portrayed sakura's potential and how people in her life influenced it. kakashi lying about the team-based enrollment criteria because he thinks sakura would be likely to sign up only to appease sasuke, and being genuinely surprised when she shows up anyway. naruto being completely oblivious when sakura was upset preceding the exams and also after she cut her hair in the forest of death. naruto literally dreaming about saving sakura from enemies, being the hero to her damsel-in-distress. sakura moulding herself into a perfectly feminine lady because that's what society demanded and what she thought sasuke would want. versus sasuke calling her out for focusing too much on romance instead of her skills like she should be doing. sasuke picking up that she was upset because she felt inadequate and reminding her of what she was best at -- maybe even better than him -- and never begrudging her for it. ino hacking into her mind because she was sure, not a single doubt in her mind, that sakura would know the answers to the impossible questions on the written exam. ino and sasuke both stepping in to save her during her fight with the sound nin, but only after being spurred on by the brutal beating she took. ino and sasuke getting frustrated with naruto when he commented on how her haircut looked because it made sakura trivialize her experience and offer a fake explanation about women being fickle. the flashbacks revealing to us that ino affirmed that she would one day bloom into a beautiful flower. ino and sasuke serving as a catalyst for sakura to get stronger before pt 1 and pt 2 respectively. idk do you see what i'm seeing

#haruno sakura #inosaku #sasusaku #idk considering sakura's main goal as a character.... #it's just so touching they're the only ones we see who ever seemed to expect something of her. believe in her even... #and tsunade eventually ofc. really really wish we had more of that dynamic #and i dont wanna discredit naruto he did cheer her on during her fight w ino #i just think this theme of knowing and encouraging sakura's potential is not really. true of ns as it is for is and ss #which is why whenever i see those 'naruto was the only one who saw sakura's REAL self' posts a part of me shrivels up and dies #the 'real self' in question = beating him up for little to no reason #and like sure it alludes to her real personality but it's not a healthy expression of it. that's why it occurs w far less frequency in pt 2 #anyway i'd need a whole other post to delve into that but let's just say it's really not an interpretation i enjoy #naruto meta

[ghost-in-the-corner]

I love the intricate detail of Miles' journey and how it's displayed to us, the viewers.

At the end of ITSV, he is so empowered by Spider-Man, that he of all people got the spider bite, so he believes that anyone could wear the mask.

At the end of ATSV, after he's been told that he's inherently wrong and not supposed to exist, this is how he sees himself. And then he (and we) literally sees himself as the villain.

But it's still in service of the original theme, if the idea that anyone can be Spider-Man. Just because Miles is different from all the other Spider-Men in the Web of Life and Destiny multiverse does not mean he's wrong. You don't have to be conventional to be a force for good, because anyone can and should wear the mask.

I will never get over the care and detail put into Miles' story. Cause, nah, imma do my own thing.

#i might make a long rant about how spiderverse is some of the best cinema to have come out in years #an expression of cinema as an art rather than as a commodity #oh god #OH NO #fuck me gently with a chainsaw i just had another idea for my research #anyway #marvel #spiderverse #across the spiderverse #spiderverse spoilers #across the spiderverse spoilers #spiderman #miles morales #into the spiderverse #writing #corner conversations
