#i want to see them grow and learn

skip to loafer general spoilers

ok so, since now we have more of a general idea of how shima sees himself or his past, i started to realize how some changes already started even before we had the chance to know about it. here i will discuss some changes that are visible:

how he’s finally denying his role:

on chapter 46, we learned how shima always felt like he was being used and that he needed to play a role just to feel some sort of connection or acceptance from other people. this, however, made him extremely aware of other people, and develop a severe lack of trust on himself.

but, as we all know, shima saw high school as an opportunity to start changing and seek his true “role” on this huge play: he started to reject everyone who he didn’t felt honest or listen to his feeling first before taking a jump. and that’s one of the reasons why i think he asked mitsumi out (plus all the other things i’ve discussed before). he’s trying to listen to his heart and that is extremely scary.

his perception of mika

we mostly had mika’s pov when the subject is her relationship with shima. but, what i didn’t notice before, is how shima always had a clear perception about her. that’s because he sees her repeating the same things he did before.

when we met mika, we saw how different she was in relation of her internal thoughts and how she behaved socially. she was always trying to make others look at her, accepting anything in order to bring a status for her. do you see a little similarity here with some little boy?

that’s why i love love love the confession scene between him and mika. because he knew she was being honest, but couldn’t reciprocate. she would be the one getting hurt, and he saw this movie before.

the lack of support as he grew up

this is nothing related to points 1 or 2 but this scene came to mind. when both were talking about goals and future, mitsumi had a clear mind of what she was reaching for, while he was running away from himself. and, the first person that came to mitsumi’s mind was her biggest supporter: fumi.

she grew up with someone who cheered for her and made her dream seem possible. he, however, had the exact opposite. until mitsumi came to his life :)

can’t wait to discover what sensei have in mind for this boy. his growth began before we even realized it and i’m extremely proud of him!

Tony and Vanessas relationship through Gregory can be something so personal

#im so obsessed with the concept of tony and vanessa #i got some of it out in rabbit burrow but like #vanessa seeing this kid show up who gregory knew pre memory loss pre vanessa being free #coming back and hes supposed to be dead. hes probably the only one to survive the two of them #and then he keeps coming over and coming over all the time #and vanessa watches gregory and him hole up in his room for hours and she can hear them laughing from the living room #and theres this other one named ellis as well #but he isnt like how tony is with gregory #vanessa just watches her kid and this other kid get reacquainted #and as more time passes she notices their relationship becomes special #tony is like a blend of gregorys old and new life and all of the good in both #and vanessa just loves seeing her kid happy #tony and vanessa both iteract sometimes but dont really talk one on one #but vanessa knows that they have a common goal #tht they want the best for gregory #and vanessa just grows fond of this other kid who seems to be attatched at the hip with hers #and starts to prepare little snacks for when he comes over when she learns more meals to make #pandas.txt #pandas talks #thoughts #beckory #detective rabbit #vanessa #gregory #3 star fam #tony

I have a dumb question, and I really hope this doesn’t sound rude. What’s the logic for some of the characters? Like, if they’re the “hero” in their storyline, but they don’t seem to follow Biblical doctrine… does that even count? I’m sorry if that sounds snotty; I don’t mean to have an attitude.

No, you're fine!!

Short answer: I don't know, I'm not the one sending in the characters 😂

But really I would say there's not necessarily a consistent logic that they have to fit. That's part of the beauty of Christianity, isn't it? Anyone who repents and believes is welcome; it's not limited to any certain type of people. For the characters people are sending in here, I think there are a few categories. There are some that fit what you said, who already hold Christian morals and who one could easily headcanon as being Christian within the story. Sometimes people send in villains who they want to have redemption arcs and become Christian. Sometimes it's characters who are Christian; mostly it's characters people would like to see become Christian.

#my favorite character who i headcanon as Christian is one who generally has very Christian morals and really wants to do good #but also lies a lot. and i think in that case it's like i could see him being Christian in the story #because Christians aren't perfect and even people who don't have their whole act together can believe #I'm not justifying continuing to do wrong. I'm trying to figure out how to phrase it #i think there's some post I've seen about how even terrible characters who do terrible things can be Christian #if they're repentant i think? point being that all of us are sinners and a character doesn't have to be perfectly good to be a believer #because none of us are. and a line from a song i know 'though I'm wretched i am not faithless' about a character who #has done bad things and is struggling to reconcile his actions with God's love and forgiveness #anyway. i was saying the character i like comes across to me as an imperfect Christian but also as someone who could really benefit from #learning and growing in the faith. i want to see that character grow morally stronger and become more like Jesus!!! #it would be good for him 🤷‍♀️ #and that's kinda the point of most of the characters people send. they either seem like they could genuinely BE Christian #or are characters people think really need Christianity in their lives #sometimes it's 'this character seems Christian' and sometimes it's 'i like this character and want them to become Christian' #i think characters who don't follow Biblical doctrine fall under either imperfect and learning Christian or needs Jesus in their life #ask

I just love the parallel of Stede saying to Ed 'you deserve to be loved even if you have done bad things. you deserve to be soft and sweet and you deserve to have kindness' and Ed saying to Stede 'you deserve to go fucking apeshit darling <3 tear them apart with your bare hands. that's my husband, yeah the one covered in blood. so fucking proud of him'

and obviously they both say to Izzy 'you too deserve to be loved and treated with kindness and you didn't deserve pain and suffering and you don't need to be afraid of your own vulnerability; you are safe to be vulnerable with us' and then they all kiss

#gentlebeard #blackbonnet #steddyhands #stede bonnet #ed teach #ofmd #izzy hands #they deserve this I think #I choose to believe that they both support each other's change!!!! #Ed is obviously wary of Stede's growing bloodthirst and for genuine reasons #he doesn't want to watch Stede fall into the same trap he did #he sees Stede as someone he wants to 'protect' from following a dark path like the kraken #Stede does NOT want to be protected (he wants to protect Ed hfhfkgh. eventually they'll realise they can do both) #he was disturbed by Murders and genuinely haunted by them at first #I choose to believe he's kinda Into It now so the characterisation shift makes sense lol #and Ed learns to kinda love this #and that he and Stede are not doomed to the same trajectory #but Stede also has to deal with the fact that his desire to be More Piratey might hurt ED #and that's gonna destroy him if he lets it #UGHHH I am poking them with a stick #that's such an interesting plot worm #Stede trying to give up on his whole future because he's afraid of how it'll affect Ed and Ed being #SO genuinely fucking touched and happy #but also Not Wanting Him To Do That #and GENUINELY supporting Stede and wanting to help him and being super proud of him #but struggling to reconcile the new amazing peace he's found - that stede and izzy built with him! - with Stede's bloodthirst #UGHHHHHH THEMST #silly gay pirates #THEY ALL WANT EACH OTHER TO BE HAPPY AHHHH

Y’all ever think about at what point in the story Blanky first took Hartnell under his wing?

Part of me thinks it was happening in the background from the very beginning.

Hartnell demonstrates a feel for the ice right from Episode One when he’s the first to notice the descending pack ice, to understand the significance of it, and to call for Blanky’s advice.  But he’s also at his most vulnerable in those first few episodes. He’s rudderless and no doubt still grieving the loss of his brother. That’s half the reason he falls for Hickey’s manipulations at first and I have a hard time believing that any of that would’ve happened if he’d already had Blanky’s support behind him. 

I think the more likely option is that it came about when they were abandoning/preparing to abandon the ships. 

Hartnell’s grown a great deal already at that point - instead of dwelling in the past he’s very much looking forward to the future. He’s gained confidence and maturity but most of all, he’s absolutely full to the brim with hope and courage and I can see that being just as important in Blanky’s eyes as a knack for reading the ice. 

At the end of the day, that hope and courage is what it comes down to. 

I don’t think Hartnell would take up the challenge of learning the skills of an ice master in the first place if he wasn’t hopeful and completely convinced that he was going to survive. 

But I also have to wonder if Blanky, particularly after his injury and particularly having a better idea than anyone of what lay ahead, decided to pass on his skill and knowledge because somewhere in the back of his mind he was convinced that he wouldn’t... 

#The Terror #The Terror AMC #Tom Hartnell #Thomas Blanky #Observations #Random Observations #It's so important to me that wee Hartnell literally doesn't stop learning and growing until the day he dies #Important and gut-wrenching #And again - I don't think he'd be so committed to doing all that unless he was convinced they were going to survive #I think it links back to his relationship to death in some way I can't quite articulate yet #Like it all has to be worth something in the end #There has to be a point to all that death and misery #He has to do something to make sure it wasn't all in vain #As for Blanky - we know he never steps into the horror story but he's also very much a realist #Realest MF on those ships #But yeah I can see it being as much about practicality as anything else for him #He clearly cares deeply about others and wants to support them #But I think he's also aware of his own mortality and vulnerability at that point even if he doesn't show it yet #He knows what they're facing and he knows how unlikely he is to live through it #He knows they're going to need his knowledge and he knows he's not going to be there forever to share it #I've got more thoughts on this so stand by for that

ok so my "what if Tim's mom was a Horse Girl ™️" hc has evolved & now she's possibly an equine therapist (yes it's whole journey & no I will not explain myself) so now I'm like does Tim have a canon opinion on horses? lmao bc listen I now decided that he has a way with horses bc of his mom and never really comes up until they're working a case or something & Tim totally calms down a horse & like bonds with it & Raylan tries really hard not to swoon but Tim being all soft & gentle with a scared horse or whatever just does something to his heart okay

#tim finds it both hilarious & endearing #like wow raylan you really want to be q cowboy huh #but also like the tenderness between them #tim wasnt allowed to be soft growing up #but he's learning how to let himself #the fact that it just makes raylan want to kiss him something silly is a nice bonus #raylan holds every soft moment tim lets him see close to his chest ok #sappy headcanons for you #i may have constructed an entire gutterson family headcanon backstory maybe #anyway #with some givenson bc i am weak for them #hope this isnt like wildly ooc but *shrugs* #tim gutterson #raylan givens #givenson #justified #justified headcanons #tim gutterson headcanons #idk how properly tag srry

Sakura gets a second point for being the first to complete the tree climbing at being better at chakra control, but at the same time it just feels like she was made good at it so no extra training segment time would have to be put into her getting good at it and it can be all about Sauce and Nart. Idk that feels too pessimistic but also could totally be true.

#she takes on a very 'obsever' role. like kashi is the teacher watching over them. but sock is the watching and commenting from the same #perspective of nart and sauce and also the viewer unlike kashi. cuz he provides a lot of exposition and whatnot in his inner monolgues #and its like. of course the girl is just the observer who watches alongside us as the two main boys grow and develop #AND I DONT WANNA FUCKIN BE PESSIMISTIC ABOUT THIS BUT GOD ITS IMPOSSIBLE!!!! #but her whole character so far is 'i hate the class clown. im book smart. i diet and im in love' #and the way i see it is. 12yo girl TRYING to fit into the femininity she sees in the world around her so she forces herself to be like this #but she has inner sock who speaks what she really feels showing that she puts on quite a front and isnt really much like that at all #and you expect her to grow into wanting her to truly define herself. and she does with getting stronger and training under tsunade and #learning medical ninjutsu so she really finds a spot for herself. she does!!! but then she KEEPS hanging onto the love nonsense #and admittedly there are moments that push a very obvious trope of thinking she likes sauce cuz hes cool but finding out that the real 'gem' #is nart so i definitely understand where n@rus@kus are coming from #but then she just STICKS with sauce until its the worst ship possible and its an utter mess of 'ill never give up on him' #EVEB DESPITE HIM TRYING TO KILL HER!!! THEN THAT FUCKING WORKS OUT!?!?!? #AND TOO THIS DAY SAUCE STILL NEVER COMES OFF LIKE HE ACTUALLY LOVES HER #IM SORRY BUT ITS TRUE. SARD WE ARE GETTING YOU BETTER PARENTS. ON GOD!!!!! #so she just hangs on to this one little thing that she SHOULD have gotten development for to move on from BUT IT NEVER FUCKING HAPPENS #so its like half her development never fucking happens and thats why it #s such a fuckinf mess!!!!! #i fucking hate this show. i need to go back to watching mike's dino game vod. what am i doing here????? #i did this to myself btw. i didnt need to start yelling about that but thats just how it is with nart #start thinking about something good and then it reminds you of something related thats bad and now its like. yeah this shit sucks #remember when kishi said he regretted not making hina the heroine???? we could have lived in a better timeline. #but if i say that i will get assassinated #anyway. #sock count #personal

when people who have ‘i block liberally’ in their bios learn they actually have to block people & cultivate their own dash:

#‘i hate seeing your posts reced to me’ block me!!! #‘omg how can you say jason is ugly kys’ block me!!!! #‘youre not funny’ block me!!!! #even in other contexts. if you dont like seeing fanon shit block those tags/people that post it and find your own mutual circle #that posts what you enjoy instead of going to other ppls accounts and telling them theyre wrong #if you enjoy fanon and not the more canon shit then block people you dont want to see the posts of/those tags & find the community you seek #like. you GOTTA learn to just block people and stop bitching and whining!!!! youre responsible for your online experience!!!! #you can complain. its your account do whatever idc. but it doesn't fucking matter if someone else is posting in ways you dont like #sorry for being slightly salty but god people on this site need to grow the fuck up and learn they're not the center of universe #and ppl dont have to cater to their judgement of whats the appropriate way to enjoy a character or story #i get annoyed at some fanon shit so what i do is i dont follow people that post a lot of that. easy. #i love bruce so i have bruce neg blocked and if someone is constantly shitting on him?? i just unfollow because it doesn't fuckin matter. #like !!!!!! it doesn't fucking matter !!!!! leave people alone and leave me alone !!!!!!! #anyways. not to be vague but anons are off again 👍 #also if any of you hurt my mutuals feelings i will block without a hesitation lmao 👍👍 #ransom note

[11/27/2022] caved in and sketched out @candycatstuffs‘s Sky Amy design as well as a Snow/Yuki Amy to go with the Snow/Yuki Sonic I made the other day. blue amy bias

#one of these has more effort than the other and Im sorry #in this house we love inconsistency bc it means we are learning and growing as we practice!! #sky amy #snow amy #yuki amy #amy rose #sonic the hedgehog #sonic fanart #uhmmmm this time my snow amy was loosely inspired by 2019 snow miku #do you see how drastically the style difference is between them when I drew them one after the other what the hell is up with that #hydro.art #I still cant do poses to save my life but Im having FUN and thats what matters #WOW when I look at them side by side something definitely happened #maybe bc I was looking at a lot more references the first time bc I didnt really know how to draw Amy and the next time I kinda #did whatever the fuck I wanted

Soooo i’ve been wondering abt this for the longest time since i read I Give Up😅but only now i want to ask the question. I hope u dont get offended or angry or anything because i genuinely felt curious. Why the story has sooo many rated chapters?😂 like why they had so much sex? God i feel like u are gonna get angry at me. Is it bcuz baek is an idol so he dont get laid so often..? Is that it?

LOLOL it’s been 6-7 years dood!

Anyway it was because back then this was a smut blog and I didn’t know what else to write😂😂😂 I didn’t know what people wanted to even read. that story was at the beginning of the blog but it was also like one of the first things I’d written, I genuinely thought that’s what the readers were coming for. It wasn’t until I started making them cry that I realized they liked feeling all of the emotions not just the spicy ones.

Also it was a new relationship. Y’all ever been in a brand new relationship? It’s nonstop sex like absolutely nonstop it’s wild. I HAVE honestly considered going in and removing some of the early chapters but 1. I am very lazy with these things and 2. It’s a brand new relationship with two people who are very into each other and very sexually compatible, so it REALLY, really is like this.

So in the end I just couldn’t be bothered to change anything. I recommend reading from chapter 11 and on🤌 that’s when I found myself more as a writer.

#jeez this ask almost made me delete the fever smut for part 6 of Can I Stay that I wrote #like #no maybe they don’t need to have sex #maybe they just sleep #maybe it’s too much #stuff like this doenst make me get mad but more like remember that embarrassing thing you did six years ago???? why did you do that? #so like #sorry??? #I was just starting #I didn’t know what people wanted from me #and this was before I had ten thousand amazing readers #this was like #sixty people and some of them were assholes #I’ve blocked and I’ve changed and I’ve learned and I’ve deleted ENTIRE fics before #IGU is a remnant #you can see it’s rings if you cut it open #and I could dig out the center if it with a hammer and chisel #but then it would be different #IGU was all of us growing together #I’m going it stop before I delete things #I’ll #leave and go shower maybe cry #idk #feels bad #I’ve learned a lot of lessons #none easy #and I promise you I haven’t learned all of the lessons

[moonilit]

having so much emotions over Jote and Joshua I can’t even articulate, like

#Like I know it looks like this one side unexplored ship at first glance but once you give it a thought #Dear god #their situation is so complex and there is SO much work and healing that need to be done #Especially after you learn more about the undying and put two and two together to see what kind of environment - #- they both grew up in #They are at first glance the master and servant trope #Which isn’t so exciting imo #Until you learn that technically neither of them choose it #You can tell they are two kids who grow up together and ‘saw’ each other #Jote not wanting to let go of Joshua because she knows the burden he was forced to carry as the firebird #Knowing that this path would kill him and she want to save him save her dearest friend #While Joshua seeing how Jote was made to live a life where she have no freedom or life or future #Both wanting to save each other but were powerless against their situation #And at the first chance Joshua gets he let her go #Even though she was the only person who grew to see and love him for just him #Which is his most precious inner wish yet he give that up for her sake #Imagine when he thought for years Clive was gone the only person who saw him and believed in him as him #The loneliness of being a god and a deity and yet Jote came along and mended his heart again #Then he let her go because she deserve to be free #Im in tears #there are more layers then this but #I can’t write all of then in the tags aaaaa #Like do you understand me?? Do you?? #Jote #joshua #ffxvi #Like a big theme in this game is people wanting to carry the burden with their loved ones like come one im crying here

I think someone put the brain of a mouse or maybe a squirrel inside my head at some point because all winter I was like “I crave nuts and seeds” and now that it’s getting warmer and brighter out my brain keeps going “it’s fruit time”

Like, modern transportation has made it possible to move many fruits all over the world (in theory) all the time! But the primal early plesiadapiform part of my brain is like “you must eat what is available this season”

#I was going to go with euarchonta or plesiadapiform brain but I think the early members of both of those groups were from a tropical #ecosystem. if I’m wrong though and either are from more seasonal environments I could change what I used #actually. wait. plesiadapis is from the late Paleocene. yes. but tropical plants have reproductive cycles too #do they generally vary by season or are they just doing it all at their own pace by species #I am from a very cold seasonal climate that gets hot af in summer but is pretty cold for a good five-ish months #not all equally cold #it’s bad for our environment if it doesn’t get cold as balls for a bit every winter #and we didn’t really get that this winter. but that’s not my point! #I mean to say I can’t remember how it works in tropical environments #if the plants just time their reproduction whenever in the year or if there are seasons for most plants at the same time #does that make sense? I’m using the primate-like-mammal. if it’s wrong then whatever #fuck it we ball #maybe I should have gone with a group further back in time but I couldn’t find climate info easily about things that far back and fuzzier #i am not the most familiar with primate evolution. especially early evolution of the group. I’m open to learning more #i just tend to fixate on certain other things like early mammals and horse and cat evolution #paleontology #emma posts #I like juice all year though #one day I want to try many varieties of fruits that I cannot access easily where I live because they can’t be shipped here #or they just aren’t as popular a variety on an industrial scale #maybe one day i will have a big greenhouse and i will be able to grow the banana varieties I want to try #I can see why some plant varieties aren’t grown on a large scale. some of these bitches are SUPPOSED to be able to grow in zone four but #they refuse to work with me! blueberries make sense. the soil here is nowhere near acidic enough and they would need to be in a pot or #whatever. ya know? but some plants just won’t! or I get them and then the weather here which would NORMALLY work is different that season

absolutely spoken like someone whose career in piracy ended (possibly very recently) because his boatswain, lover, and partner in warlock shenanigans tried to ritually murder him after she identified his distrustful hesitation and disillusioned exhaustion and considered it weakness and cowardice

#Vandran has so many emotional problems. It's amazing. #Is he giving the best advice to Fjord? No. Do I see absolutely where he is coming from? Yes. Is this actually stuff Fjord needed? Also yes. #It gave Fjord new and exciting emotional problems but.... was Vandran wrong lmfao? #Fjord did very much want to learn and did greatly benefit from many of these things even as he had to unpack and unlearn parts of them. #He did very much benefit from being able to control whether and how other people saw him. #And while what Vandran taught him developed a struggle with vulnerability in Fjord—it did help Fjord a lot to learn to hold his guard. #It's a..... super complicated thing really. #It wasn't always good and Fjord did need to let go of parts of it. But it served Fjord at the time in a way he desperately needed. #(Like trying to stop someone from bleeding out and being less concerned about whether the wound will heal pretty. As long as it closes.) #(Aabria voice: Nature heals and sometimes it heals a little stupid but it does heal.) #As immensely flawed as these lessons were they enabled Fjord to find his footing and stability and build a foundational sense of himself. #That allowed him in turn to continue to grow in a way that let him let go of these things as well. Like outgrowing your coping mechanisms. #And I feel like this comic underscores and articulates all of that very clearly. Stepping stones. #Anyway this post is about Vandran who also has massive emotional issues bc yanno his girlfriend tried to murder him for ~weakness~ #Critical Role things #MNO spoilers

if good omens ends with aziraphale & crowley becoming mortal i am going to switch myself to a diet of arsenic and fiberglass exclusively

#yes the entire point of their characters is that their love for humanity overpowers their allegiances to heaven and hell #and they ally themselves with humanity even as frail and temporary as humanity seems in face of literal eternity #HOWEVER. in my opinion it is made more profound by the fact that they don't fit in with humanity either #that they are genuinely bemused but sympathetic to the awkward fumbling clumsy humans who try their best #like humans who volunteer at a cat shelter. we love the kittens not because we identify with them. #we are endeared to these curious creatures and want to oversee and protect them #that's how i think of how aziraphale and crowley see humanity #not as 'they're just like us' but as 'we could learn so much from them' #i would find it more beautiful if they got to watch over and protect humanity forever #through all its different phases and ups and downs. to enjoy the endless adventure. #than to die as mortals #but that's just my opinion ig #(and i'm saying this as an angst lover. the growing old and dying thing would be the gut punch to end all gut punches) #(but i wouldn't find it as satisfying)
