AAAH I have a mutual who’s 18 and he sorta kinda is flirting with this one guy who is a minor as a joke of course ( to which a concerned anon said that it’s weird ) but I can’t help but flashback to er*s

#granted the er*s situation was thoroughly complex and the reason she did those things was her copism with not being able to pull ( LLLLLLL ) #and ik that guy doesn’t mean any harm etc etc he’s not messed up like some ppl #BUT I DUNNO STILL #sobbing #they’re pretty sweet so #hes* #OH AND HES IRAQI TOO I LEGIT COULDNT BELIEVE THAT #dora daily #lowkey kinda sorta sad that a whole anon was more concerned than ppl i knew and who knew my age #and freely saw it happen so readily #and everyone else on that blog #genuinely and utterly disappointed #it’s always protect minors until the minors need protecting goddamn #this is especially directed at rhy yeah I’m not censoring that #🤷‍♀️ #too busy simping over minor characters who don’t have a time skip in canon and aging them up then complaining about it when ppl call out #the brain deadery of that behaviour #girl pls #you did not care about minors from the beginning literally bye #e[redacted] literally ruined my brain chemistry to say the least I will never go into how what she did absolutely muddled my brain never #told anyone and I don’t think I can ever tell someone ever #not to mention practically hyperventilating being unable to breath literally going into madness and ppl think that I’m overreacting and #telling me to shut up about it and blaming me for the situation as if I wanted any of this #lmaolmaolmao #all that and I was expected to do uni girl byeeee I need a good century to recover at least ☠️ #the only thing I DID want is friends but clearly that was a hard ask when ppl can get friends just by existing on this god forsaken app #atp I don’t even know what to say literally just wth #yall say mdni with your dumbass banners and decorate it like something special when yall are the ones to keep from minors you disgusting #wastes of clean oxygen 😭 mdni my foot gross ass adults should’ve never trusted them #the way I’d give them therapy to their complex traumas ☠️ imagine relying on a minor for therapy

Are you considering making Firestar purebred? Not that it matters to the plot lol. I’ve always designed him after an Abyssinian :3

I know the clans have a bunch of mixed genetics so they wouldn’t *be* purebred, but do you have any breed HCs for specific cats? I draw Yellowfang based on scrungly persians myself :)

Nah! I'm actually only considering purebred cats for SkyClan to put some more of their kittypet-ancestry on display!

I think thematically it works really well for SkyClan specifically, and will make for some really cool ancestral traits to be passed down in the coming generations... even though realistically, no cat with SkyClan ancestry would be "purebred."

(in fact purebreeding discourages outbreeding often to the detriment of the health of the cats but woogh)

I'm not super fond of picking out breed headcanons otherwise because it feels stifling, like Cat Genetics, another thing I'm not interested in. When I want Bluestar's family to have a wolf motif I just draw them having a wolf motif. Next to Brokenstar's glasses, Spottedleaf's blight theme, or Thrushpelt's mullet, just picking a cat breed seems mundane.

I like to design with "soft" fantasy elements in mind! It's why I have a very 'Bring Your Own Design' approach to my rewrite and encourage people to have different takes on stuff. Never been able to draw realistically.

(actual ecological/bushcraft/medical research? I'm plugged in. Drawing realism? Not my style.)

Though, I do think Silverflame's mate was a cat with extreme brachycephaly. A persian-like cat. I imagine Brightflower had a few breathing problems as a result, but by the time it got to Yellowfang she has enough muzzle to be healthy and for it to just be a quirk of her family.

#Plus the family traits I've picked so far can be altered so freely #Broken Rowan and Little all have different types of glasses but it's the same family trait #That's fun! I can sit there and think about what pair of glasses I'm gonna give them #I don't really get that with breeds-as-a-trait #OH oh the note of Yellowfang's Face #Just through genetic luck it's not prevalent with either of her grandkits #But it probably will persist in Rowanberry's line down through Stumptail #Stumptail has a very round face #Bone Babble #Side note I'm trying to work out Tigerstar's family #I've just been sketching them in my notebooks lmao #I also want to keep Silverflame's 'coat' in her descendants... #GOD she was a pretty cat #Brokenstar and his biokids Littlecloud and Rowanstar take a lot from their grandfather but little from their grandma

LET ME ASSIGN YOU AN AESTHETIC WORD.

CAFUNÉ. cafuné means running your fingers through someone's- perhaps a lover, hair. it's such an intimate, affectionate way of showing love. if you got this result, you're a romantic at heart; very sweet, delicate, precious wandering soul. aren't you scared of your heart being too big for your body? somehow, you remind me of that pretty coral pink that bleeds into a soft indigo when the sun is slowly setting.

what i'd like to tell you is that we can't save everyone, and that's okay. you're doing your best, and it's enough.

also now that it's fresh what we see of little azula in zuko alone really is not all that ... anything at all. like she's not horrifically evil or predeterminedly ANYTHING ... she's literally ten years old. she's acting like a ten year old ?! she trips her friend and pushes her big brother into a fountain. my brothers use to lock me in chests and there's literally an entire popular childhood game made up that's about tricking your friend into giving them a nosebleed by hitting them in the face. and her biggest crime is ... having a talent for firebending, which isn't actually her fault despite what people seem to strangely think, and parroting strategy and propaganda that her actual manipulative and evil father tells her that she clearly grew up around and doesn't just Randomly Know.

both of these particular aspects of her put her in a position of immense pressure by her father from an incredibly young age, in an incredibly volatile environment where she knows, and as the years pass she LEARNS, a slip up or indication of less than perfection could cost her more than just a basic reprimanding. people harp on for years about gifted children and the ramification of treating a child as more mature or capable than they are but can't seem to apply the pretty much perfect comparison even in this fictional way... that's crazy. it is literally her entire narrative arc and the way it just goes over people's heads is ASTONISHING.

like it seriously frustrates me the way people continue to villainise azula beyond logic to the point where there's this fanonised, warped version of her that exists (particularly as an even younger child than she already is) that's like, the antichrist figure to further woobify and "legitimise" zuko's various traumas and his childhood, which i find not only obviously fucking ridiculous and people should be ashamed of themselves but also like, you just don't have to do that. theirs was not a normal childhood and neither of them should be judged as a normal child, but also paradoxically, they are just normal children.

even if azula was in an average family, from a behavioural standpoint, and a LOGICAL standpoint, no, the ten year old little girl doesn't know the full capacity of what she's doing and saying and should not be judged as if an older child or adult were saying them, or as if she is entirely outside of the narrative scope. she teases zuko about how their grandfather was going to "kill him" and how he should get adopted now (which literally... all my siblings have done have people never had siblings...) which is an entirely normal way of acting out and picking fights. when ursa comes in she immediately acts innocent which no, doesn't indicate further malicious intent or "manipulation", it's... how any 10 year old would act if she got caught being naughty and picking fights. (contrary to popular belief zuko is not the main character both of the story and IN LIFE, and azula exists without her brother around – a child scared to get caught indicates a child who has been driven to be SCARED. in the household she lives in this applies tenfold).

she would have no actual reason to realise the outside forces actually at play, unlike their mother, and just like it's not her fault zuko is treated unfairly for being the "unfavoured" child it's not her fault that... adults were actually conspiring to kill her brother. which is a huge thing and is something almost intolerably inconceivable to most adults let alone children.

"but she was callous about her mom leaving" she wouldn't be able to REGISTER anything about their mother "disappearing" (or dying, at least to them at this point in time) within the... 10 hours? it happened in. she was lashing out again. she did not have a hand in "KILLING" her mother. and honestly from what little we did see of ursa, a predisposition to finding your own child unsavoury is kind of unwantonly cruel. these characters don't know that they exist in a narrative where azula is being set up as The Villain, who has to act Villainous, and honestly that's a boring fucking way to look at character behaviour anyway.

as much as i do agree that obviously it's a story and things happen for narrative enhancement, the enrichment of a story comes from the believability of a character's actions and even if that weren't true, half of what people as fans of something do is further that themselves by inferring what we can from what we see and therefore i think i'm right in thinking this anyway. you can't step up to the plate claiming you can handle depth and give me a puddle -_-. anyway. it is insanely unbelievable that a mother should write off her own child and favour the other just because her megalomaniacal husband has shown interest in cultivating his own child as a weapon, and just Plain Insane that so many people write off this character entirely WHILST giving all HER trauma to ZUKO.

also like, she's not even acting like a particularly spoiled princess COULD act like in the beginning she's just kind of an annoying kid. i'm not kidding when i say she's acting pretty much entirely normal. "she set her dolls head on fire" so has every other kid i've ever known. i'm actually going to lose my mind about how people have twisted her character into something so beyond any sort of empathy or consideration of what a child of a manipulative genocidal maniac who is shown to abuse his kids could possibly look and act like when we literally get it served up on a silver platter the entire show in the difference between zuko and azula. "azula always lies" because azula always plays the part to protect herself and the role she was manipulated into thinking she earned is like, the foundation of her character and it's embarassing the way i see so many people just like. fall for it. the inability to conceive any sort of love or compassion for a character that directly parallels the male character everyone trips over to analyse is really transparent and sad tbh. at the end of the day azula haters will be taters as i prosper in my garden of success of loving her and being capable of having a brain.

#🐾 #☆ #atla #sorry this got kind of ranty LMFAO it's just like. i love her and when people turn her into something she's not i need to stab them #a million times over and over until they die badly #also this is literally true bc it's part of the whole thing i'm even talking about but people literally just hate her because she's mean to #zuko. like oh my god. get a grip. he's not real and his fictional feelings don't matter #i literally love that kid BUT GUESS WHAT. HE LOVES AZULA TOO #irs almost like they're siblings or narrative foils or something huhhh interesting woah #also bat meet hornets nest but i do know it's bc they can't sexualise her as much as a fandom the way they freely do with him 😭 #zanyway #child abuse tw #also i doubt it but in case tbis ends up in a tag or sowmrbing no i don't think she hasn't done anything wrong ever if you think that's #what i'm saying then you need to idk read it again. she did eveyrhing she did. so did every other character. #but perhaps when people are going out of their way to give zuko handfuls of compassion and tragic backstory they could fork some over for #his FOURTEEN year old sister. maybe!

I can count on less than one hand the number of high profile shootings in this country in about 35 years (1986, 1996, 2010 & 2021) and have involved some kind of major amendment to gun control legislation, one involving multiple 5-6 year olds, and yet Congress and the NRA naturally love to endanger their fucking citizens and say 'IT's nOt AboUT tHe gUNs' and have thousands of shootings for literal decades

#like the government didn't give a shit about kids even when #small children were mown down in their own school #with ones like Sandy Hook #shut the fuck up #guns tw #shootings tw #gun violence tw #child murder tw #child death tw #vent #rant #death tw #irl death tw #this country is shit for god knows how many reasons #but i don't get why something can't be done about the guns #how am i supposed to feel safe when people can wander around freely with GUNS

SO!

Pretty good show honestly. I think it may perhaps come off a little underwhelming compared to last time because they released the full trailers early, so it was chiefly just talking, but I was still pleased.

The only thing I really wanted out of it was one (1) of my predictions coming true and one (1) surprise, and well, between the Watase Family and Nishitani...... THREE!!!!!, that's exactly what I got. Kiryu looking up at the sky like he's struggling to remember who he (allegedly) proposed to is hilarious though same energy as Jo not remembering Ikumi's name ghdshgkdhf the exchange kind of reminded me of Ichi talking to Arakawa as well... the "don't say it in the past tense" one you know the one...

Also next summit in September so that'll be a lovely birthday present :) For Me :)

Also x2 I love seeing which of my asks you decide to reblog. Whether it's because of the actual ask or because of my commentary it always feels like a win (<- normal to want and possible to achieve)

even if Considerably underwhelming, what information's been given IS causin a lotta buzz right now so !!! pretty successful summit in some regards ( ❁´◡`❁;;)

i just wish we got to see LAD8 gameplay, that's probably the only thing i really wanted but i guess there is still the fall summit (and for your birthday's sake i hope it's a real banger one)!

#snap chats #BEEN TRYING TO REPLY TO THIS ONE FOR LIKE HALF AN HOUR NOW IM SO SORRY VLEKVKJ #i was still on the call with my friend so i couldnt think straight and i wanted to give this my full attention when responding #anyway. i dont think i have to say anything about the conversation between ichi and kiryu #mostly cause ive already been doin that with the other asks huh ☠️ #DEFINITELY probably The Main Attraction to everyone tonight... so mysterious... def leavin me confused LMAO #but SO true love how ichi freely assumes arakawa was bangin back in the day but with kiryu he's like Oh God Prob Not #and i mean. is he entirely wrong ☠️ #which is what makes kiryu's response all the more funnier 'been around the block' at max you got three girls #one of them arguably being your sister and the other was a mole and the other one yall separated on agreed terms #WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT SIR. he caught on proposing cause he wasnt ever with anyone long enough TO propose ☠️☠️ #AH AND i actually like most- if not all- the asks you answer if that's anything :) #my main's shadowbanned so it probably doesnt show up but i always do enjoy reading your commentary or responses to people #i feel awkward rbing asks since For Some Reason in my head that's. Illegal #but sometimes there ARE topics i really wanna leave a comment or ramble bout for one reason or another #absolutely flattered it's considered a win tho cause thats how i feel whenever i see you like or rb any of my posts fjaLKJLKJA #cause yk... in a general sense im very bland or just outright foolish SO it's always cool when you enjoy my posts ♪(´▽｀) #esp when theres so much love and thought in yours- its very cool is what i can say in the Utter Most Simplest of terms #terms i have to use cause my hands starting to hurt from all the typing owie ow ow ow（；´x｀） #ill leave with saying HOPEFULLY for the next summit i can stream it... my mic worked well with my call with my friend SO #it's def ready for. whatever i got in store ok my hand REALLY hurts now i gotta cap it （；´д｀）

vocaloid producers stop making/commissioning MVs with flashy lights challenge!!!

#vocaloid #kyo rant.vsqx #really long rant in tags aswell #i know alot of MVs dont have flashy lights but some of em DO and thats pretty annoying as someone who just recently got hit with #the photosensitivity train. bleghhh. #my photosensitivity isnt bad it just makes my eyes sting a bit and it only applies to bright white flashing which ai dee and #freely tomorrow by mitchie m are both guilty of and that sucks because they are very good songs with cool MVs aside from that #OH AND ALSO some of the live concerts have white strobing which. OW. nuh-uh. that's NOT fucking it #might also explain why i don't like playing project diva as much because theres usually a colorful/fast moving PV alongside the gameplay #which i also find VERY distracting. like i love the PVs don't get me wrong! they're beautifully crafted #but my god it's hard to focus. and thats why i like sekai more is because they have lite mode which has you play with a simple background #no flashy PV just. calm. good for the eyes! the only way you can get that experience in diva is with practice mode and that does not give #scores which is the whole fucking THING for diva. #RANT OVER LMAO Umm thats alot. #oopsies lol

I love the cinema therapy channel, I wish they had better taste in media but it’s very nice to hear this guy say things like ‘healthy relationships actually result in more passion between partners than unhealthy/dramatic ones’ like yes that’s how it SHOULD be

#I agree with that post about descriptions of romance/romantic sentiment being rendered dull by therapy brain #but I'm old enough to be like ohh stability and security and trust is so exciting #also it gives me a very petty satisfaction to watch that channel and compare cql wx with novel wx and come away with the conclusion #that cql wx may be more boring but it's also sooo much more balanced and healthier #if cql wx were in couples therapy which they might actually benefit from I think the only thing would be PLEASE communicate more #please verbalize how much you care about each other and your struggles please stop trying to avoid burdening each other my god #if it was the novel they would not need therapy because they're caricatures who do not behave like human beings #and who have a perfect relationship despite never discussing any of the fucked up things they do to each other #like I can't even envision them approaching it like it's a problem #ugh. anyway I remember the cql finale and I go all 🥰 #it's good!!!! #its not possessive or violently jealous or anything...theyre on the same page and theyre seperating because its needed #and lwj is able to let wwx go freely....and they'll come back together when its right. #like the level of trust in that....the respect...the selflessness....beautiful beautiful #cql txp
