"Pretty enough to paint. Too bad I don't have a canvas. Or paints. Or the skills."

Never change, Wyll. Never change.

yes yes characters doomed by the narrative always slap BUT what about characters saved by the narrative? characters who have already given up hope and don't know they have a happy ending? characters who believe they are a lost cause, characters who feel irredeemable, characters who think there's nothing left for them, but the narrative does provide a way out? what about the characters who don't expect anything good, who don't even remember how to wish for it anymore, who get the things they need anyway? what about the characters who actively run from being saved getting saved in a way they can't stop or control. what about being saved by the narrative!!!

#yes yes yes more of this #I feel arrogant saying I'm trying to do a poor version of this with Shion's fic #but I am #I really really am #OT3: what we have is each other

Luke Skywalker: An enemy is just a friend I haven’t worn down. Mara Jade: Are you saying that you’re the main character of a kids cartoon? Luke Skywalker: I’m saying that “I’m going to be friends with you” is both a promise and a threat.

4 hours of work today and counting. It's a Saturday and not even noon yet. I wanted to write today, or at minimum just rest. Welp, that ain't happening.

Writers keep in mind while you’re working on your current WIP, you’re learning skills that may not result in you being able to complete that particular WIP to your satisfaction, but WILL bear fruit in your NEXT WIP. Like, you might’ve blown up this science project, but next time (or the time after, or the time after…) you’ll nail it because of what you learned while setting fire to this one.

I wish we could warp to a place where we could hang out and flail over OCs and blorbos and anything else that we feel like

#sometimes we'd just vibe in the same space #other times we'd be chatty #there could be blankets and hot beverages and soups and snuggly animals and anything else people enjoy #just feeling some kind of way this morning don't mind me

A strange alien doctor stands near the unconscious body of Padme Amidala. “It appears she has lost the will to live.” A older man with a limp hobbles closer with the aid of a cane. “That’s the dumbest thing I’ve ever heard,” says Dr. Gregory House.

You have to recognize your capacity for harm. You cannot omit the harm you've done to others to remain "good." Anybody can be a bigot. Anyone can be an abuser. Anyone can harm anyone at any time even those who have been harmed themselves. The world is not made up of victims and villains only, this is life, not a Saturday morning cartoon and you are a human being who can or maybe even has hurt others and you HAVE to acknowledge that to learn to be better.

lab rat

#ahahaha #I mean obviously Hange is Mad Scientist 1 #Shion and Levi might trade lab rat roles #Hange's efforts to make their home wheelchair accessible *absolutely* fall into the Levi-as-lab-rat territory #Shion's more likely to be the lab rat in situations where caving in will make her beloveds happy

when is comes to asexuality and aromanticism you have to be okay with contradiction. one ace person will say asexuality is about not experiencing attraction, another will say it’s about not caring to act on attraction, another will say it’s not experiencing arousal. one aromantic will consider themself queer, one won’t. two people with seemingly identical experiences will use two different labels. aro people will be in romantic relationships, ace people will have sex. you get it.

#asexuality #aromanticism #(important reminders thank you 💜)

Fave problematic OC: Heather!

thank youuu~ :D

Oh, Heather Cousland, how aren't you problematic? Hooking up with the queen of Ferelden no matter who she's married to, running odd jobs in Denerim as a cover for your Dark Wolf activities, too competitive for your own good, easily consumed by vengeance, very very bad at the whole noble etiquette thing.

It's a really good thing you didn't end up a Grey Warden.

(ask me about one of my OCs and I’ll share why they’re problematic)

#ask games #Heather Cousland #one of these days I will write more for her I swear
