Do you think Saix' emotional co-dependence started as a Nobody or did it start as human Isa and just grew to an unhealthy degree?

#i like to think it started as a human partially bc that would make the most sense to me #(as xemnas/org xiii likes to use its members established weaknesses against them and saix/isas attatchment to axel/lea would be very easy to #manipulate him) #but also it furthers the parallels between saix' jealousy and rikus arc in kh1 #which i think is fun #obviously it wouldnt have been nearly as big a problem back then as it ended up being later on #partially bc isa wouldnt have been manipulated and gaslit so much but also #bc he wouldnt really have any fuel for it like saix got #no super-important super-secret mission they have to do #no forced emotional distance #and the idea of being 'replaced' would have been much more fueled purely by anxiety than any actual possibility of happening #oh and he also would have at least one other friend (subject x) #even if its one he wouldnt be able to talk to all the time #anyway im rambling. saix/isa got fucked up bad and i hope he gets loads of therapy bc god does he need it #isa #saix #lea #axel #leaisa #akusai #it feels kinda wrong to tag their noboy names when its them as a kids #kingdom hearts #kingdom hearts birth by sleep #kh #kh bbs #art #my art #xanders art #digital art #fan art

friendly reminder that reinhard is approximately the same age as his parents when they had him

#suffaru post #IM SORRY MAYBE THIS IS A REINHARD BLOG NOW…. #i have an essay due at 11:59 pm but instead i am doing this HAH… #OK BUT THIS IS IMPORTANT RIGHT of course rezero is medieval fantasy and full of death traps so of course u got people having kids younger #but theres another layer here in that like 1. heinkel didnt become sword saint and theresia was growing older so he was basically required #to have a kid earlier than usual im sure. and of course heinkel and louanna got lucky bc they truly loved each other #and then theres like. bc louanna has sleeping beauty syndrome shes eternally stuck at 20 yrs old rn. reinhard is the same age as his #comatose mom. shes been in a coma since he was like two. #and reinhard too is expected to have kids to pass down the sword saint blessing. that shit is a family curse at this rate i swear 😭😭 #reinhard van astrea #heinkel astrea #louanna astrea #ok also i know having kids at like 20 is probs like pretty good for medieval standards and all. but its still like. young. and then as we #all know shit goes sideways in the astrea family very quickly after reinhard is born and heinkel has his descent into madness arc which #recontextualized a bit with the fact that he was a young parent that suddenly lost a whole lot of things. #and there are no therapists in rezero so 😭😭😭😭 #also ok yes i am assuming louanna was either 19 or 20 when she had reinhard… #meanwhile heinkel we know for sure was like 20 yrs old yeah. #re:zero

do we think laslow would have cheesy bumper stickers

#drove by somebody that had an 'eat. sleep. DANCE!' sticker on their car #made me giggle thinking of him putting that on his car #maybe one of those 'BABY ON BOARD!' ones after he has kids..... #much to think about this is very important characterization #dots on the soapbox

I am going to throw a quick "sorry I disappeared" post up here because I was so ready to come home and talk to people after my first day of work last week, then I opened tumblr on my computer and it was the hideous new layout and I just gave up and collapsed into bed... and every day since has proceeded in exactly the same way. 😩

I'm only awake right now because I had to complete a 4hr online training before tomorrow morning sob sob sob sob, but usually I collapse right when I get home. And everyyyy time I open tumblr with aspirations of catching up here with all my fave people, the layout immediately makes me recoil!! Why did they have to do that!!! And then I'm asleep again.

Hopefully I'll be awake for more of the weekend this time around and can figure out whatever hacks you all have come up with to restore the non-hideous-iconless-twitter-knockoff version of the interface, but for now just wanted to let everyone know that I'm not ignoring you, I'm just genuinely going from working to asleep for the time being.

#SO MUCH SLEEP #the thing is there aren't even kids here yet #i'm very nervous if my energy is already this low!!! #but well at least i don't have 9348923423 emails to write when i get home #i CAN just collapse at 6pm. that's a huge improvement in some ways #i would like to be awake on saturdays however #aka only friends laws of attractions days :( the best days the most important-to-be-awake days #anyway genuinely sorry for all the abandoned message threads i have on this app right now #i miss you all i'm sorry i can't stay awake i'm gonna build my stamina up soon #dear diary

Thinking abt cole's way of watchfulness,,, its progression and origins,,, the way it is embedded so deep into his behavior that it's subconscious,

#ooc;; mun barks #sjfhdo my queue is emptying soon i havent been on here in days [sweats] #But Sight is so?? Very important for him #Which results in a lot of things including just how fcking readable he is when he was a kid before he makes a bad decision #How his eyes flick with intention and tells in this snap decision way before he learns to be sweeping #He didn't like blindfolds for a very long time -- similar reaction to people getting touchy with his face #kid gets quiet and you can see the tension jerking in his jaw - plowing rigid lines into his shoulders (23 yr old agent mccree will bite u) #These days at 39 the older dog will probably fall asleep in one like its a sleep mask :skull: #He always knew to watch bc his parents taught him to watch - u had to watch and read the animals and u had to watch and read people #And then it was hypervigilance in his orphanhood - this scrappy cobbled together thing of sitting in corners near back exits and scoping #building to something pointed throughout his gang career and justified further by BW - utilized and weaponized #But at some point he stopped looking when it came to people he learned to trust (and looked in a different way; looked in a loving way) #And i am thinking of his return to overwatch and how that hypervigilance returns in a way he doesn't like towards ppl he dont want to be #that way with and how #They're fleeting tells - the way he favors his prosthetic arm towards walls - brief tension to touch - #watching (even in that lazy way of his) but still watching #He relapses in the desert - forgets and remembers both at once

Hot take - instead of saying Irish names aren't said how they're spelt, lets fucking learn that thats because they aren't fucking English. If i see one more person complaining that Saoirse is Shersha and not said how its spelt, i will personally call my da to fight all of you. It is time we have respect for activly dying languages- sincerely, someone whose grandfather didn't get to learn his families language because of cultural genocide.

#And Dont Get Me Started On The Fucking “Potato Famine” #that bitch was genocide #you will never convince me otherwise #and these complaints about irish names instead of learning them is giving “i actually dont give a shit about cultures other than my own.” #i also am very sleep deprived and that may be where this anger is coming from #but also when i was a little kid #i would hear my Da lamenting about how he and his siblings were never fluent in irish when they were literally from northern Ireland #but he knew enough to teach me somewhat how to figure out the names #and thats important to me. yes im bading a character off of him.

God I could and should write a whole fucking book by the end of this life here on Lev and his symbols

ill write it then burn it before anyone else gets a copy. or i wont. im supposed to be helping him this incarnation here to get a better anchor in this plane so maybe it would help more than itd be weird - im just getting from him the energy of "yeah no people already effectively have these things, people on my plane already know me inside and out to an extensive degree, may as well have it here too" you know. fair

#ramblings // #ugh god i love his tone saying that tho. i kept trying to prod to see if it was a ''ugh yeah people know me inside and out and Yes Its #Invasive But -'' but no #oh my god man. his like energy towards his people is..... BEFORE I SAY THIS #I HOPE YOU ALL KNOW IM ANTI PROPAGANDA. the biggest reason i dont work with Lu and others is bc theres this tendency to #be like ''we're darkness but also light! we're teachers we're enlightened we're pure in our own way and the kings are here to #teach you how to empower yourselves and they love all worshipers and they reject all tyrannical authority and they are the good guys #against the chrxstian god who (insert specific atrocity that actually was committed by the kings not the 'chrxstian god' - and #''demons'' should KNOW that because it was AN IMPORTANT PART OF THE WAR so either theyre LYING orrrrr) and we're actually #really down to earth and more holy than anyone else bc we're enlightened - i mean uh uh no wait that contradicts us being #against the love and light style of enlightenment chasing'' like. i will tell you that my boss has massacred a lot of people i will tell yo #im anti monarchy and i dont believe that the kings' peoples are any better than 'angels' and i will tell you a lot of innocents on both #sides have been lost bc of royalty and rich families the kings are directly tied to #so i hope you know that when i say the way lev treats his people in his mind is..... holy shit #i pick apart everything he does. ive seen sides of him that are dark af (and i love him for them lmfao) but as soon as his people are #involved... have you ever been w someone getting hot and bothered and a kid walks in that you thought was sleeping and you just switch #completely into parent mode like. he'll have complex fictions w me helping me write stories about corrupt monarchies and shit #and then no. he is like. hes very good at mindset switching and going immediately into different faces but i swear #his ''i am a king and a king is a head of a mass of people - a king is a servant to his people'' mode is like. impenetrable #he is so. fucking intensely single-minded and trained to be a king unlike anyone else. anyway what was i talking about #OH YEAH. his tone w what i wrote in the post. was so switched into that mode of ''my viscera is theirs to eat as Im splayed on their table #and this is divine ruling. this is my purpose with them'' type shit. PURE thought. there is no other energy i can find in it other than #pure ''this is my job and i do it''. pure as in distilled. a pure tone like a sine wave played on a synth as opposed to a string plucked #leviathan // #ive. im nervous about saying the shit ive said here lmfao but ive had his OK before to say it ALSO. AS I SAID. theres no way his people #dont know the massacre was done by the kings lmfao. like. yall were involved. and also you all have to know that one of the #people that pretends to be the christian god is. two of the kings actually and since lev commonly appears to people and lets them #decide who he is bc hes never arsed making a show of Being Leviathan and whatnot im sure hes been called God plenty of times #too but like. cmon. I dont know who started the ''oh the uh the invading heaven and killing off half the population was the #chrxstian god'' rumour but i was first exposed to it through lu and (his wife) worshipers so yall get the blame - that said...

#I'm just so tired of posts mocking people without siblings #I know in the grand scheme of things it doesn't mean very much #and I know many of these posts are probably made by teenagers to whom sibling status seems much more important than it will in 10 years #but what if we didn't make negative generalizations about people based on circumstances outside their control at *all*? #sure your upbringing affects your personality in some ways! #but maturing is a process of adjustment and of learning to be more considerate of others for EVERYONE #having siblings does not magically speedrun this process for you #just. next time you see a post about how only children entirely miss some essential aspect of human development #stop and think about people with no siblings that you know #which - if you know me - includes me #stop and think about how you would feel if someone made a post like that about a group to which you belong #stop and think about whether you really think people develop fundamental personality flaws based on whether their parents have other kids #stop and think about how much some of us WANTED to have siblings and didn't #how thrilled we were when we got to spend time with a big family or sleep over at a friend's #how much it means when we're able to say to a friend 'you're like the sister/brother I never had' #(one of the 'sisters I never had' is my college roommate btw) #(so I can't have been THAT bad of a roommate) #stop and think and then decide if that's the attitude toward other people that you want your blog to embody #and if this tag rant has made you think 'wow! only children can't take a joke!' #I promise you that's just me. there are plenty of others that can #I also want to add that this is not directed at anyone in particular. #there are many such posts I've seen and I don't think I know the OPs of any of them #this is just a general reflection on how that whole genre of post makes me feell #*feel #eta: and to be clear there's good-natured joking and there's mean-spirited mockery and I'm not always great at telling the difference

The Essex Serpent spoilers (on the off chance anyone is avoiding them bc they wanna watch the show bc Tom is in it but they haven't gotten around to it)

I've seen gifs of the show so I knew Cora and Will get together in the end but I hadn't realized they they both have another love interest so this whole time I've been like "Will you have a wife Will you have a wife Will you have a wife" but I figured that meant Stella would die in the fifth or sixth episode and it would clear a path for them and Luke would just have to suck it up but I just watched episode three and I knew the moment they went "I don't think you have a right to be this angry with me" "no, I don't" "then why are you?" that Will wanted to kiss her and I was like it's okay the fear of God and his love for his wife will stop him and then he pulled her in and I was like NO??? but I tried to convince myself that it was fine and it would be a one-time thing until Stella died and she'd never have to know and they wouldn't wreck their marriage and then Stella fucking looKED OUT THE WINDOW AND SAW THEM?????? come on Will we were rooting for you 😭😭😭

#will and stella are so cute and they have such a cute lil family and Will even tells Cora that he's found an equal in his wife #so what the HELL is this about Will? #I'm gonna throw hands #of all the spoilers I've seen bc i didn't try to avoid them tho I'm glad it was their relationship bc that was fun to speculate about #more important tho I'm glad i don't know if the serpent is real or not because that's one of the very few spoilers i would hate #at first I thought it definitely wasn't and then episode two ended and I thought it definitely was #and now at the end of episode three im not sure how to feel #i want to think that if it was real it wouldn't be marketed as a big mystery bc they clearly want to to think that it's real #but at the same time wtf was up with those freaky ass kids? #which is the only reason I think Cora's og evolution theory was wrong is the freaky chanting children #i almost wonder if it was... charles? i suck at names. whoever slept with the now-dead girl and tried to rape her sister #bc he'd have a reason to kill the girl after sleeping with her in this Nice Christian Town #but it doesn't explain the supernatural stuff and I just don't know how it would have worked yknoq #anyways im really enjoying this show it's great entertainment on the treadmill #the essex serpent #not marvel

this has been such a weird last couple weeks of school though

#like i feel like my mental illness really pushed itself to the front for the last while there #not that it’s gone like im still within that time period i think #i just feel like i had a pretty regular routine going for some months there #like. wake up get on bus sleep on bus struggle through classes go home sleep wake up repeat #so i guess i was already pretty mentally ill. but my routine has changed to like #wake up at 3:30 wake up again at 7 get on bus sleep a little struggle through first hour sleep through second hour skip third hour #don’t turn in my fourth hour assignments go to french and pretend to be happy go to raider time and be uncomfortably quiet and then #stay after school for as long as possible to avoid setting foot at home for as long as possible #and then add in a couple mental breakdowns per week about the only adult who’s ever been like. kind. to me. in this way #anyway my math class just started and it’s just going to be a straightforward work day #our college grades are finalized but for the high school grade we’re allowed to retake any tests we did badly on #so i might retake the chapter five test. im just worried that i might do worse this time around #but anyway for today that’s not what we’re doing that. that’s an option for next week. im just going to stay here #but yeah. idk. im still filled with a huge amount of fear just about the idea of not having somewhere to go #like. i can’t drive. if the school bus isn’t taking me to school every day i just don’t have the support system i have during the year #idk. tara and elanor both live within walking distance. i just. definitely don’t feel that comfortable talking to them about stuff #or asking them for help with anything that’s very important #hey i just found out the kid who ‘‘prefers to be called daddy’’ dropped this class. good for us #can i tell you how uncomfortable it is. as the only person in this class with a name different from the one on the roster #for this random kid to be out here making fun of the idea of that #and saying he prefers to be called DADDY. it was. an interesting thing #to be fair it’s kind of funny. it just made me uncomfortable and he’s for sure transphobic so #it just wasn’t a good look all in all. even if it was a little creative #anyway my playlist is playing twinkle lights by the sonder bombs now. i love this song too. im going to turn off tumblr though #just out of respect for my teacher. i guess. like i should be doing something important right now #he gave us a work day and i should probably work about it #me. my post. mine. #delete later

[paragonrobits]

some important calvin and hobbes facts in case you haven't read the original comic strip in a long time or only absorbed stuff on it from memes and out of context bits on here:

Calvin's last name has never been given, and neither has any of his parent's names. This was actually why his uncle Max only showed up for a brief storyline; the creator of the comic, Bill Watterson, ultimately felt that while it was fine to have him as someone for his parents to talk to, it felt far too awkward to never have Max refer to them by name and he never made a return appearance.

The general tone of the comic is fairly light-hearted, with a big emphasis on goofy slapstick comedy contrasted by clever wordplay and often surprising adult-centered jokes that'll hit you like a slap. A big part of the comedy is, as Watterson put it (paraphrased) "It's really funny to me when people express deeply stupid ideas with really fancy terminology." One notable example you might have seen is that one bit where Calvin asks his mom for money to buy a Satan-worshiping rock album and his mom replies that there's nothing genuine about them and they're just putting on the attitude for shock value, and comisserates with Calvin as he deplores that mainstream nihilism can't be trusted. He concludes that childhood is disillusioning.

There is a LOT of criticism of the extreme materialism and selfish mentality of the late 80s, when the comic was initially written. This may go a long way to explain how its aged so well; much of what it criticizes resonates well with people today.

Bill Watterson views comic strips a legitimate form of artwork, and repeatedly fought to have more space to draw more beautiful and artistic backgrounds, which was a very hard fight and unpopular even with other comic strip artists. He eventually did win some compromises and a lot of Calvin And Hobbes' artwork shows it, with the use of space to indicate time as well as a sharp contrast between the often plain environments of mundane life contrasted by the wildly beautiful imagery of Calvin's imagination (which often sports realistic depictions in an art shift of sorts).

Hobbes is explicitly not an imaginary friend, by word of Watterson himself. We don't know WHAT he is exactly, and Hobbes is apparently unaware of the strange nature of his reality; people look at him and only see an ordinary stuffed tiger plushie, but he has a tangible effect on the world that would be physically impossible for Calvin to do on his own. He's apparently been around for a while, and was apparently around when Calvin was a young baby.

On that note; Hobbes has implicitly killed (notably treated as both a gag and also with the vibe of 'he's a tiger, duh') and while he doesn't do it again on-screen, he doesn't have any moral issues about it. Calvin claims that he's never had trouble bringing Hobbes to school because the last time he did, Hobbes killed and ate a bully named Tommy Chestnut and simply comments that it was gross and he needed a bath. Calvin's tried to repeat this again, but Hobbes was grossed out at the thought having to eat a kid raw and not being allowed to use an oven first, or complaining that children are too fattening.

Hobbes became gradually less human-like in body language and more like an actual cat in both body language and behavior; this was due to Watterson drawing more inspiration from his cat, who also inspired a lot of Hobbes' running gags, such as pouncing on Calvin when he got home. Several years into the syndication of the strip, Watterson's cat passed away, and he did a tribute to her with a comic strip of the two of them agreeing to try to dream together so they can keep playing when they have to sleep; Watterson's commentary (if I recall right), remarks on his cat: "We can see each other again in dreams."
