90 minute leyendecker study b4 bed. heard cleo has a cat cafe this season :swoons:

#thellos art corner #zombiecleo fanart #hermitcraft #hermitblr #mcyt fanart #mcyt #ok time for a peek inside my skull: i really contemplated not posting this. not for any reasons of disliking it #im pretty conscious about how fat people are characterized/portrayed around food in media. both in fan works and canonized material #(flashbacks to hunk from voltron) i really think about ways to defy the way fat bodies are portrayed in my works. while also staying normal #i think at the end of the day i really see food as a love language. and serving people i love (even if its just coffee) brings me joy #even if theres a one-dimensional box that fat characters get put into regarding food. it makes me happy! so i'll try to do it with grace #i think representation isnt always this mentally twisting lol. but its definitely something i think about. #i hope i can positively project my feelings about food and love onto a plus size body (as a chubby girl :handheart:) and showcase that love #ok yeah yeah its 11pm. time to put meemaw in bed. if you read all this ur rad <3 also i stopped watching HC peeposad

Phil: [Looking at some red vines covering a wall] Has this always been here, by the way? This stuff?

Bad: Yeah.

Phil: Yeah?

Bad: It was here the other day.

Phil: Ok, ok...

Bad: Looks kinda nice, doesn't it? Like... could you imagine if this whole wall was covered in it?

Phil: [Stares knowingly at him]

Bad: Wouldn't that look awesome?

Phil: [Trying not to laugh] Shut up– shhh. Shut.

Bad: [Mischievous laugh] Yeah! You like the–

Phil: Shut your mouth, oh my god– Right, I'm gonna- I'll be back in a bit, alright?

Bad: You love the idea!

Phil: NO— [Warps away, then cracks up laughing, hitting his desk] God damn it.

Ado my beloved

#kirby #kots #kirby of the stars #kirby fanart #hoshi no kirby #adeleine #ado kirby #im very fond of her original design #my design is a mix from both #i love her she's very silly #now that the series is going full speed ahead on the ancients lore i wonder if Ado will be more involved #what is she even doing here how did she get here #she's supposed to be extinct #do you think Magolor had a heart attack when he saw her #and wanted to question her but Dedede immediately stopped him because that's his daughter #I'm very fond of the kirby 64 squad in general #also yes the Elfilin part is them having a flashback because that's their tormentor #and here we are!

noticed that they like to put little parallel moments between current day rafayel and his other lives. i don’t know what to do with this other than rotate it in my brain :3

more under the cut + some spoilers for him in general

left: deepsea riches. he’s teaching mc how to use the fishtail beacon

right: main story, 7-6. he’s helping mc use her evol to resonate with the coral stone

left: deepsea riches. he’s taking mc out of the palace that she’s never supposed to leave

right: nightly stroll. he’s taking mc to investigate a fish pond by akso hospital. this time, he’s the one who’s not supposed to be outside

left: sea of golden sands, part 3. the glowing blue fish appears after he promises to come back for mc one day after she sets him free from enslavement

right: nightly stroll. the glowing blue fish appears after mc chooses to either never make rafayel wait for her again or wish for him to be reunited with the girl who saved him from dying stranded on a beach

left: fragrant dream. he and mc are on a boat. he is gazing at her when he comments on how beautiful the scenery is.

right: blossoms, kindled 3. again, it’s not the scenery he’s looking at when he agrees that the ‘view’ is beautiful.

i’m sure there’s more than i didnt catch or havent seen but these are the ones ive noticed between the cards i have and myth chapters ive unlocked ;w;

#rafayel love and deepspace #love and deepspace #something something they both carry something similar in their core in each life theyre together #yadda yadda both very different in each life yet the core is the same #i love him…. #also is that ocean emissary like… light confirmation that he’s still the god of the sea in his current day incarnation….? #i actually noticed the fragrant dream + blossoms one first and since then ive been so :0 #wouldve included the fireworks vow pinky promise but i dont think that #the pinky promise we seen in his flashback in ch7 is from a past life…?

"Lee Hyunsung was talking about the scenarios he experienced. I silently listened to the story while examining Lee Hyunsung's body. His pectoral muscles were more developed than before." Kim Dokja

"Conversations should be conducted while looking at the other’s face. I knew that, but my eyes kept going down unconsciously. There was quite a wide gap between the sides of his unbuttoned collar. I knew there were always a few gaps that he couldn’t help because of the size of his clothes, but he was still a public official …Honestly, it was too much in many ways." Han Yoojin

Khem. Men of culture, I see.

Adding onto the Vasco nightmares thing: it's not uncommon with real losses for the mourner(s) to struggle with dreams where they have to reach an end goal (ex. traveling across the country as fast as they can to reach them) in order to "save" the one they lost, or to be completely taken out of a dream because the lost appears in them (knowing that something isn't real because the mourner KNOWS that this person is dead and can't be alive like they are in the dream).

It could be compelling to explore that side of Vasco's grief more

.

#oh right I think I've heard of that #I only get the ones where people that are actually alive die in a dream #it's much nicer to wake up from those and realize it was only a nightmare #than other way around #Vasco developing some level of ptsd is very likely outcome and something I had thought about way back in summer #for a period of time after it he gets intrusive thougts and involuntary flashbacks both awake and asleep #answered #anonymous #death mention #cw death mention

Every time I encounter a ship war with Sonic and Amy or Shadow, etc, I just smile to myself and believed that I'm the only smart shipper in the fandom because Sonic is bisexual and I'm the only person who knows that. 😎

#piko rambles #sonic the hedgehog #amy rose #shadow the hedgehog #sonamy #sonadow #On occasion I remember that Sonic has two hands and my day automatically gets better. #I just had a cringe flashback about witnessing ship wars from like YEARS ago and I'm so glad I'm not like those kids anymore lmao #I remember having a MASSIVE epiphany that Sonic is bi and I ate that headcanon up like ICE CREAM XD #I'm usually a HUGE sonadow fan but Frontiers made me love sonamy again. Not as much as I used to when I was younger but it's still cute #I enjoy both ships. Which is something the fandom is terrified of apparently lol

I've recently been watching these very interesting Star Wars video essays on YouTube (yeah I know, a rare breed) and it brings up these comments Lucas has made about how he views Star Wars as almost like a silent film in terms of how important the visuals are to him in comparison to the dialogue. But this essay also points out how important Lucas finds all of the "rhyming" moments in his trilogies and the way he utilizes them to remind you of something else for emotional or thematic reasons. And there's so many of them, both in visuals and in dialogue, and it's interesting to consider how important this is to him, the repetition for a purpose as well as the storytelling through visuals above everything else and then to look at Star Wars since the Prequels came out and realize how little has really been able to match up to those ideals since then.

The ONLY thing that's come out since the Prequels that I think really hits these two things the same way is, in fact, Andor. One of the things I noticed about the way people discussed Andor as it was airing in a way I haven't really seen for any of the other shows or films was the visual SYMBOLOGY. So many times I saw people noticing the Imperial cog everywhere, from the aerial shot of Narkina 5 as the prisoners escape to the architecture of Mon Mothma's house. There were people picking up on the use of items in Luthen's shop that are familiar from other things to give this idea that Luthen is from another time, he's attempting to preserve this world he lost, that if you're not looking closely enough you won't notice what he's really saying or doing with this shop. The color choices for the different locations and people got analyzed because the people involved spoke about how they intentionally utilized color to SEND A MESSAGE about the characters and the world. We know that the people who made the costumes and sets really worked hard to treat Star Wars almost like a period drama and study the history of the franchise as if it were a real place so that the things they came up with felt like they belonged in this world everyone knows so well even if it's completely new. And of course there were all of the myriad references to things from Rogue One, the constant repetition of "climb", the sunset on the beach, etc.

Nearly EVERY SHOT in this show was created with so much intention behind it in order to say something meaningful about the characters, the world, this specific story they're in, and the overall saga of Star Wars itself. It's insane how much greater impact this show was able to achieve through the incredibly careful usage of visual symbols and thematic repetitions, much like Lucas did before them. It feels like they didn't just study the history of the galaxy far far away, but they studied the history of STAR WARS and what Lucas was trying to do and say with this story. They peeled back his onion a bit more and were able to create something that really has that same visual feel even when it's not created for a child audience. It also is experimenting with its narrative style through its structure and through Cassian's character being allowed to be somewhat more reactive than proactive, and while that didn't work for everyone, it does feel like it's following in Lucas's footsteps of experimentation through Star Wars. Push the boundaries of what Star Wars is and can be and what you can say with it.

But this only works because they peeled the onion back enough to TRULY understand all of the messages Lucas was sending with it. They got the heart of Star Wars and despite its lack of space wizards, despite the lack of most major characters in the Saga, this was a show that honestly got the message more than just about anything else Star Wars has put out since the Prequels. The choices between selflessness and selfishness, the themes about how you always HAVE to make a choice even when it feels like you don't have any (sometimes ESPECIALLY when it feels like you don't have any), and how important it is to make sure to choose the path of compassion above everything else. The themes of connection to others, the symbiotic circle and the impact even the smallest person can have on world around them, it's RIGHT THERE and it's CENTRAL to Andor's storyline.

So yes, it experiments a little with narrative structure, but it's possibly the most Star Wars thing to exist Revenge of the Sith because it honestly truly GETS what Star Wars was about, both in its themes and in its filmmaking. A lot of people said that Andor didn't feel like Star Wars to them, usually because of the lack of space wizards and the fact that it's not a story aimed at children. But to me, Andor is EXACTLY what Star Wars is and has always been. They're stretching the boundaries of what Star Wars can be, but it's saying the exact same things Star Wars has always said, it's just saying it slightly differently. This doesn't feel like fanfiction to me, not really. Unlike things like the Mandoverse or the books, Andor isn't just taking some of the toys out of the sandbox and going to play with them somewhere else. Andor is IN that sandbox. It's building a slightly different sandcastle, but it's still within the sandbox, using the same sand that Lucas did.

#star wars #andor #star wars andor #i GET why some people feel like andor isn't star wars #but quite honestly that feels like not just a superficial reading of andor but a superficial reading of star wars as a whole #the only other show to come anywhere near andor's level was the obi-wan kenobi show #there's tons of visuals that are intended to link back to both the pt and the ot #from obi-wan and leia's costumes to things like the fire obi-wan is burned in and that flashback scene #i'm placing andor above owk still because i think andor takes it an extra level higher but owk is also in that sandbox #owk just got stuck with the fucking volume and the disadvantage of going from a movie to a miniseries #but it did far better with those disadvantages than just about anyone else and still told a VERY star wars style story #the fact that it feels like the prequels is exactly why everyone hated it #and it's exactly why i loved it and think it's the 2nd best thing to come out of star wars since rots #i'll give 3rd place to rebels since it tries once or twice to do some visual and dialogue repetition #but those kinds of things aren't something i see analyzed about rebels all that much tbh #everything else is just fanfic that made a profit #some of it is really BAD fanfic that thinks a cameo is the same as a visual motif. it's not. they suck. stop doing them.

I have a theory that Yor's poison tolerance is so high not just because of the assassin training, but also from all the trial and error she likely went through while foraging for food as a kid.

(I mean, her cooking is a given as a source of poison training but I personally think that she probably ordered out most of her meals once she started living on her own. But considering a lot of adults sometimes have difficulty determining which berries and mushrooms are safe to eat, I fully expect a child with limited resources wouldn’t know right away. And rather than chance anything with Yuri, she likely was the poison checker herself until she became more familiar with what plants are safe to eat.)

#i am desperate to see more of yor's backstory #what we have learned about it i expect it to be pretty sad #currently it's been seen in cute little flashbacks - from mostly yuri's perspective #and yuri is not exactly the most reliable source of unbiased information - he definitely has rose coloured glasses on #and i fully expect it to just hurt that much more because yor's such a kind person #she likely kept up the warm smiles and soft laughter even on days there wasn't enough food for both of them to eat #or she had gotten hurt doing her real job but needed to look after yuri #spy x family #yor briar #yor forger

not to over-indulge in my own tags and this extremely hyperspecific au but walk with me for a minute. it's this scene from the series finale of LOST except make it rick and michonne. and instead of it being them reuniting in the afterlife it's them reuniting after the poof! no apocalypse timeline reset and they're getting flashbacks of the original zombie apocalypse timeline. do you see my vision.

#richonne #the IDEA is they both wake up and the apocalypse did not happen (like rick wakes up from his coma but the world did not end) #but they both feel panicked because something is not right. there is a sense of loss and grief they cannot explain #they look at carl and andre respectively and burst into tears and are hyper vigilant around them and don't know why #their partners go to touch them and they flinch and they DON'T KNOW WHY #meanwhile little things give them deja vu that they don't understand #and then because Invisible String of Fate they somehow cross paths and lock eyes and it's The Fence multiplied by like a million #and then idk if the flashbacks come all at once or a little over time but either way they Recognize each other #and it torpedoes both of their lives #idk what happens after that but DO YOU SEE THE VISION #oh and there are RULES such as #the stronger your connection with someone the more easily you ~remember them when you meet again #and also the longer you lived through the original timeline the stronger your memories are #so for example since richonne would obviously had been alive at the time of the reset #they'd have crystal clear vision of their memories once they regained them #but people who died quickly would have either a vague memory or no memory of the original timeline #this is so you could have the DELICIOUS dichotomy of rick and michonne remembering EVERYTHING while lori and mike remember basically nothin #AGAIN DO YOU SEE MY VISION

Gen V really missed the opportunity to make Luke/Cate/Andre a (closeted) throuple instead of that dumb cheating plot

#gen v #luke riordan #andre anderson #cate dunlap #think about it: Andre joining their relationship is still fresh so he wasn't there for the stuff with Sam and later feels very guilty for #not noticing Cate manipulating Luke right under his nose #plus they could never go public about their relationship cause Luke is Golden Boy™ and Andre is in the shadow of Polarity #people misconstructing the dynamic between them thinking Andre is envious of Luke when Luke is his one personal reason to #join the 7 apart from his dad's pushing because then they can stay close and hiding in plain sight under the guise of bromance #people thinking Cate moved on too quickly from Luke to Andre but they're both trying to cope with losing 1/3 of their heart #the flashbacks in Cate's mindspace could be about failing Luke in other ways like not noticing he wasn't well or letting the press turn #him into a villain and just wishing they had more time together as 3 before Luke died plus Jordan didn't know about them despite being close #idk I'm just rambling at this point but yeah they could've made it poly if they weren't cowards

vomits. hang on let me try to get all my repeated thoughts out at once. first time actually speaking to each other in the present day in the entirety of the series and it took 92 chapters. i used to say this was matoba with a look of instinctual hatred which i no longer think but i do love that its an instinctual Reaction that he has to tamp down and that is given beautiful large-real-estate-on-the-page focus and a mirror in natori's.

natori terrified bc he hasnt been around for any of the matoba-natsume interactions that have mostly defanged matoba. but he is the trespasser in this arc so he has to play nice around his ex down the street from their emotionally significant loquat memory he was already thinking about while he panics about his ex trying to kill his teen best friend. and then he [horny redacted] well we'll get to that liveblogging later.

um um what else. they look beautiful here. im gonna throw up.

#exe #natsumanga #what have we seen by this point in the series. Bad End matoba intro. natori opposed to him in Letter. tense and unhopeful world unbent. #slightly recent to this arc altho not very sequel flashback lending hand where they are................. still failing badly but they keep #TRYING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and now we throw them in a room together with a year's worth of natsume-forced-development from both of them #and see what happens. and what happens is i die

fun youngblood chronicle idea: patrick dies of his injuries in the phoenix music video and the only thing keeping him alive is the drugs from young volcanos/demon possessing him

#that man realistically should have been dead in the phoenix its a MIRACLE he managed to live #but ive just been toying around with the idea that he is the first one to die #turns out im living in a horror film where im both the killer and the final girl type of shit #like. theres some element of magic to the youngblood chronicles so its not totally unrealistic in that universe #to say the drugs from young volcanos keep his body alive until he gets possessed #of course patrick doesnt KNOW hes dead obviously #he doesnt learn that until pete stabs him a bunch of times in the desert and demon possession can Only Do So Much to keep a guy alive #and hes in heaven and elton is like oh yeah youve been dead this whole time btw #and like instead of gettinh flashbacks to the young volcanos party he gets these little white flashes of heaven #until wdtpg and he hallucinates that hes in hell #<- because his soul is already trying to get to heaven but since hes. possessed. and yknow murders people. he cant get there #until he finally dies for real and he is tested #fall out boy #fob #patrick stump #youngblood chronicles #the youngblood chronicles
