Itachi, but in a world where he's loved unconditionally, treated like a child he is, where his father hesitates, then drops the idea of taking him to the battlefield. Itachi in a world where his mother is an active participant in his upbringing rather than a bystander who sees him being thrashed and used by the village and her own husband for their political gains. Itachi in a world where he isn't sucked into the vortex of politics that means eternal darkness for him and everyone he loves. Itachi in a world where he doesn't have to watch his best friend commit suicide and then being accused of his murder, eventually dooming himself to hell. Itachi in a world where he doesn't have to torment his brother, leave him among wolves and vultures. Itachi in a world where he doesn't catch a terminal illness that he has to live through as a form of punishment for his crimes. Itachi in a world where he doesn't die at 21 when he could have been so much more.

One thing about being in translation is that you end up noticing how weird some things would sound if they were translated in a literal way into English.
Today the lady at the cafeteria asked me "Multibanco, princesa?" Which is an absolute hell to translate even though it contains just two words. What she was asking me was if I wanted to pay using the portable ATM machine. Then she addressed me as "princesa" which literally translates to princess.
And that's totally normal here but from what I understand of English the only situations you'd ever refer to an adult like me as princess would be if
You're flirting
You're joking or mocking the person you're addressing. It's a way of calling someone spoiled.
However in this case it meant that the lady saw me as someone younger than her and she wanted to be extra nice so instead of going to the more formal "menina" (miss) she went with a nickname that would denote some endearment. I'd say the closest thing in English would be the term "dear".

Wow me, drawing Jersey? Craazzzyyyyy
Anyway, I had an original design for this type of look on the Ipad, ended up not looking at it once since I apparently have memory. Kinda glad I didn't since I could go just by memory and figure it out as I went along ya know. (ps, for those who don't normally read tags just like, please do, i put so many lil things in there lolz)
Okay SO, I have this lil headcanon, nothin big, that Jersey didn't used to wear shorts until like 2000 or something, maybe a bit before then. This is because he has some scars on his legs, just from over the years, and wearing shorts not only shows those but also make it easier for him to get scrapes and such.
He was fine wearing shorts around NY, Del, and Rhode, occasionally Mass as well if he happened to be around at the time. He couldn't wear them around anyone else for a long time, some scars had Memories(tm) attached to them, some good most bad, so he just never wore shorts.
He's gotten a lot more comfortable wearing them around the other states over the years, mainly because of Covid where Mass unfortunately wouldn't let him keep wearing the same two pairs of pants. So he's fine now, if still a lil uncomfortable around some states (the west mainly), you just won't see him wearing them until it's the first day over 60 in state.
Anyway I love NJ but this isn't surprising, I live here. I am NOT a simp for this bitch, he's my state, I have to like him, 'sides who else would I attach to? Pennsylvania? Florida? Or god forbid NEW YORK!? Absolutely not, that's sacrilegious that is.

Keeley would’ve only known Jamie had blocked her number if she’d attempted to contact him :) and quite possibly it would’ve taken multiple attempts with no response before she realized :)

Confession: I am really into true crime. My friends would rather watch romcoms and I'm just like "let's put on a serial killer documentary" and they look at me like I'm crazy. Idk I'll just embrace being weird I guess!
true crime is like in the top 5 most common interest for a woman to have lol....im not sure who told you it was weird but it is literally painfully normal & not at all strange or quirky. sorry to be the one to inform u

What is an amphibia
Oh, man. As im rewatching it, too.
Amphibia is an animated show that i could best compare to The Owl House. It is a Disney show that aired in 2019(?) And ended last year. Unlike The Owl House, it does not have as much lgbt representation, so do not go into it expecting that. For a lot of the show, it is more "filler" episodes. Though, this does not mean that they aren't important and should be skipped over. In my opinion, it has a very good story, and its themes are done really well. I absolutely love the characters, and i think their development is done soooo well.
Onca again, it is a bit slow, especially in the beginning, but it is worth getting through, in my opinion. It is my favorite show ever, and i think you should definitely give it a watch!
I wish I could say more, but it's very late, and my brain is not functioning that well anymore! Please do give it a try when you have the chance. You can find it on Disney+ or the same site i linked for Infinity Train.

hello tumblr pals! it is wip wednesday, a day that has been been making me increasingly forlorn the past month or two as i've been struggling with some big anxiety/depression around writing and finding it very hard to get words onto the page. i am trying to be proactive about finding my writing joy again and would love it if any of you feel compelled to do either of the following:
- share with me a scene or line i've written that has stuck with you since you read it! and/or
- share with me a specific thing you're excited about in something you're working on!
