#he doesnt want to teach

[babyprime]

wyllstarion is everything to me because they both get what they need. astarion needs sincerity and romance and softness. wyll needs someone who is willing to be a MASSIVE fucking cunt on his behalf and encourage him to be more selfish.

#wyllstarion #bloodpact #bloodblade #like yes its good for astarion to be with someone kind and honest and princelike #but MORE IMPORTANTLY its important that whoever wyll ends up with makes his fathers life a fucking nightmare #and teach him to be meaner and stand up for himself more #wyll is put in a position where he feels like he has to agree to an obligation hes uncomfortable with bc hes a duke or bc someone needs him #and astarions like no he doesnt want to. dont like it? kys about it 😘

#marshall d. teach #blackbeard #blackbeard pirates #one piece #whitebeard pirates #my art #so sometimes i think about how teach stayed on WB ship for close to 30 years #now i know he was fighting and doing his part but still he never tried particularly hard and he was basically living under his dads roof #for his entire adult life #and would have continued to do so if not for the yami yami no mi #anyway after talking with a friend it got me thinking about him as a neet so there #really loose concept and this is just me procrastinating but kind of funny i thought #neet au #about marco since someone mentioned. since he was ship dr and 1st commaner i wouldnt consider him a neet #marco had a lot of responsibilities while teach was just a regular member #so marco would be the more mature and successful older bro #anyway with this i finally drew bb with tired eye bags #like this man doesnt sleep. he should look tired as hell #i feel like im going crazy #i want to draw highschool luffy and discord mod teach having a brawl on the street

God... how Mouse and Bad started sniffing eachother, bad asking mouse where she was from, and when she said "not around here" he said he could tell, and looked at her horns. I love it when demons demon. They smell like sulfur and their horns bump when they get near each other and theres an innate sense of familiarity in someone not quite like you and not like anyone else but you, claws that dont pierce thick skin and odd ways of expressing and experiencing love. Im always so ill about the demons..... i wish we got demon trio more often.....

#qsmp #vodblogging #q!badboyhalo #q!mouse #q!tina #<- implied #i want more of her Being a Demon :( #i want demon bonding #i want mouse to encourage her to express that more #bads not ashamed hes defensive he doesnt need that coaching #but she needs to teach tina how to love what she is and to love expressing it around those she trusts #i want her to stop shaving her horns :( i want her to stop wearing perfume to cover up the sulfur :( #the sulfur smells like home #the sulfur smells like family

emo Nico x scene Will Solace...

#pjo #riordanverse #nico di angelo #will solace #solangelo #i need them to be cringe (affectionate) teenagers okay #give me Will with a hardcore homestuck phase and streaks in his hair dyed with kool-aid and striped armsocks #date night is Will teaching Nico how to make kandi bracelets #if youve been here awhile you may know i am a scene Jason believer and the same concepts apply here #listen i just think. emphasizing Nico being emo and giving him a scene boyfriend #its very important though that only certain riordanverse chars fit the vibe to be scene kids #like i dont think Percy would be as much as i want him to be #its antithetical to his character (internalized ableism/bad self-loathing/keeps his head down) #Will and Jason on the other hand would use XD unironically and have a total ball making sparkledog fursonas #Alex Fierro. DEFINITE scene kid. Magnus is already just kind of a little emo. Sadie is a definite yes. Carter. maybe. #i think he'd be adverse at first but kinda get into it casually yknow. he'd dig kandi bracelets at least. #probably get really into linguistic breakdown of xD rAnDoM speech just for fun #Walt no but he could. like. i think he'd be open to trying it. but its not his default state. #Zia. doesnt have the energy but i kinda wanna see it regardless. i think itd be fun for her but on her own she'd lean more goth #Leo? maybe. depends. he's more into doing stuff ironically. Piper. yes. but specifically as an f-you to conventional fashion #Reyna no. Frank maybe. Hazel yes. Thalia maybe. Annabeth hmm. maybe #i think thats all the main casts. Alabaster? YES and i wanna see it. #anyways thank you for coming to my emo x scene ted talk and character evaluations in the tags

sometimes I forget how painful sanjis initial backstory is.. a kid so young experiencing starvation. carrying so much physical and mental effects from it. not to mention the isolation and loneliness he experienced as he sat alone watching the shore everyday. and the whole thing with zeff...

anyway I made myself sad so I saved a bunch of young baratie sanjis to cheer myself up

after everything he went through he found zeff- someone who gave him encouragement in his craft he had never experienced before and someone who proudly called sanji his son

#sanji and zeff mean sooooo much to me #zeff doesnt seem like the kind of person who ever desired kids #in fact I feel like he didnt want a kid at all #but then he met sanji and he saw and innocent child who shared his dreams and he knew he was going to look after him #he teaches him how to cook #he teaches him morals #he makes sure sanji is always FED #sanji didnt go looking for a mentor #or for a father #he was ready to face the world alone at the age of 8 and never questioned anything else #bc what could 'the failure' ever do but be tolerated?? #but then zeff sacrifices everything for him #and even more #zeff lives for him #they create a home together; a restaurant in the sea #zeff became everything sanji needed and even though sanji felt he owed zeff so much..zeff never expected anything in return #because that is his SON and he LOVES HIM #my sanji and zeff ramblings #of all the many found family parent-child relationship theirs really hits me #zeff was a pirate until he saw a child in need ; a child he saw himself in; and then he STEPPED UP. #I gotta stop rn or ill never shut up #red leg zeff #black leg sanji #baratie #I could ramble about bellemere and nami and nojiko too #they remind me of the dynamic of zeff and sanji tbh #met in a storm and prioritizing the kids #refusing to show anything but pride for being parents of these kids

Was AJ justified or not?

not justified. understandable, but not justified

the situation was a bad one. marlon Was trying to kill clem. aj was ready to do whatever he needed to to protect her. but hes a young child. either through fighting or talking marlon will stand down. the threat has been dealt with but aj doesnt realize that. marlon drops the gun and aj takes it because he still feels threatened and is ready to do what he thinks he has to to protect clem (whos life WAS on the line twice that night). he doesnt know the difference because hes never been taught the difference. all he knows is danger and survival. hes unsocialized and doesnt know what its like to be a part of a larger group. he was already biting and hitting anyone who would come up behind him reflexively because hes a traumatized little kid who doesnt know anything besides protecting himself first and asking questions later

he messed up. he thought he was helping. he wanted to protect clem. he was scared. it was a horrible mistake, but its not like marlon was completely innocent. marlon Was a threat, he just wasnt anymore when aj finally got his gun back. aj just couldnt recognize that because hes 5 years old and doesnt know any better. louis yells at clem asking her what the hell she taught him, but its more about what he Wasnt taught. he only knows survival and to eliminate threats. no room for nuance because its just been him and clem and a fight for survival for years. ericson is the kind of environment aj desperately needs, where he can be Safe, where survival isnt the only thing he needs to focus on. he needs socialization and support and patience, otherwise he will only get worse. clem knows this. its partially why shes so desperate to find a home for them. she sees what the world is doing to this little boy and so desperately does not want that for him, even if it keeps him safe

i do not like a justified aj. for me teaching him to be repentant and to know the difference between a threat like marlon and a threat like lilly is important. marlon wasnt a monster, he was a scared kid just like aj is, and they both make mistakes that cost people their lives. but lilly IS a monster, in the sense that she is a legitimate threat that cannot be reasoned with. so teaching aj that him killing marlon was wrong, but still telling him to shoot lilly, i have confidence in him that he Can tell the difference, it just needs reinforcing in the cave for him to Get It. to steer him away from that anger. hes learning when to make the hard calls. and because of that i believed him when he gave his little speech in the cave. i Did trust him. but seeing other routes and other cave speeches i can def understand why some people didnt trust him. raising aj into a person you can trust feels like the whole point to me. people will teach aj that he was justified and then hate him for his actions like YOU TAUGHT HIM THAT

#people will literally teach aj to be hard and cruel and then shock pikachu face when he acts hard and cruel #he wants to be good!! he wants to protect the people he cares about!! #he just doesnt know the best way to do that. because hes 5 #replies with lexi #incognito #twdg

thinking about pre canon andrew meeting kevin who has just lost everything he’s ever had over his abuser who asks please don’t let him take me away who says stop you’re hurting me who still believes if he asks riko will stop andrew will stop anyone will stop and i’m thinking about andrew who wants to crush him who wants to protect him who can’t believe kevin is this fragile who can’t believe he is this naive who can’t go to sleep without checking in on kevin every night but can’t keep from wanting to wring that innocence out of him like water from cloth. anyway

#‘why does andrew call kevin babygirl’ because kevin reminds him of the innocence he once had and lost #because kevin reminds him of being 7 and saying please. Why Else #andrews very conflicted no good feelings about wanting to teach kevin that mercy doesnt exist vs wanting to give him that mercy #normal and well adjusted today. #txt #kandrew #andrew 'im gonna leave youuu im gonna teach you how we're all aloneeee' minyard #kevin 'what makes you so special?' day #ANYWAYS obviously i have thoughts #healthy andrews need to be kept next to kevin at all times but given no direct access to him. on account of his horrors #kandrew is the original corruption couple if you think about it for like 10 seconds

Trans!Hiccup later in life becoming more confident in himself and coming to terms with the fact knowing how to and doing things traditionally viewed as 'feminine' doesn't make him any less of a man my beloved.

He canonically knows how to sew. Like his attempted cover was he was 'making outfits' so why not? He definitely made his own armor, he probably makes his own clothes when he has the time. He said he wanted to he a 'bread making viking' (and yes i knoe it was a hasty lie but hear me out) so I'd like to think he knows at least how to bake and probably how to cook as well. And he enjoys these things and indulged in them when he's able to.

#i love when trans people are able to accept that their hobbies being viewed as something related to their agab doesnt make them #any less valid i understand its not for everyone but if youre able to reconcile with that kind of thing you will genuinely be better for it #this goes for snotlout as well (he is also trans!)l #in rtte he knows how to sew #also i hc that astrid is trans and has a very complicated relationship with gender due to how committed she is to being a warrior #shes a girl but never really learned to do any kind of 'traditionally feminine' things other than hair braiding #and though she'd never want to be a housewife she feels as though she missed out on some kind of core childhood experience #shes a lost cause at cooking but hiccup offered to teach her to sew and its something they work on together in their free time :) #httyd #trans hiccup #rtte #trans hiccup haddock #httyd headcanon #hiccup haddock #trans headcanon #hiccup horrendous haddock iii #transgender #moth.txt

ive been thinking about what characters would know sign language, bc despite never being mentioned i can't imagine teyvat wouldn't have an equivalent version.

alhaitham (partially deaf/goes nonverbal) obviously and by extension kaveh (kinda hard to chew out your roommate when they cant understand you), but also collei (goes nonverbal when triggered) would have been taught by tighnari (who knows it bc its useful for communicating silently w other rangers)

#sagau #genshin sagau #genshin impact sagau #self aware genshin #self aware genshin impact #alhaitham #tighnari #kaveh #collei #albedo absolutely knows it as well (he taught klee when she saw him signing one day and thought it was neat) #klee signs when shes really excited bc she knows if she starts talking no one will understand her bc shes talking too fast #amber knows it (similar reasoning to tighnari but she also works w kids a lot. probably taught collei a bit of sl during her time in mond) #cyno (same reason as tighnari + amber and again. helps 2 communicate w collei) #diluc & kaeya know it (they learned it as kids and thought it was super cool. used it like a super secret language between the two of them) #diluc uses it more practically now but still goes nonverbal sometimes and kaeya just Knows and immediately switches to sl too #lisa + by extension razor (lisa would have prob learned it in sumeru like alhaitham and is trying to teach it to razor) #mostly to fill in gaps of words hes doesnt know yet. so if he wants to ask for something but doesnt know the word he can sign it instead #childe. which may be surprising. taught by skirk probably but only barely. just enough to get his point across when he goes nonverbal #bc hes absolutely traumatized by his time in the abyss and is not handling it well!! #honorable mentions r ei + miko + zl #yoimiya + yelan + yanfei #baizhu + noelle #me?? projecting onto the characters by making half of them go nonverbal for x reason????? yeah :) #if u see me adding tags look away!!! #n e way do you think there would be different versions of sl for each nation bc........ #i mean teyvat only has one universal spoken language (paimon mentions it bc traveler had to learn it) #so would there even be multiple sign languages????? #maybe bc asl + bsl are different but.

I don't know how I'd ever convey this in art but. Thinking very deeply about how in boy king au, a very crucial part of characterization is that Seb is a wolf in sheep(or lamb more specifically)'s clothing and Fernando is a sheep in wolf's clothing.

Seb is very unassuming, very delicate, seemingly very vulnerable and malleable. But, deep down, he can be very ruthless. It's in the the way he hesitantly declares war, with a spark in his eye and a suppressed smirk. In the way he challenges someone to a card game or a horse race, proclaiming that he's not great, but winning every round and prancing around the room and mentioning it ad infinitum. The way he's able to instantly turn the tide in a debate in one fell swoop. By showing all his cards constantly and letting himself be vulnerable, he's making himself invulnerable. No one would ever consider him to be able to make big moves, so he wins every single time, because no one even thinks to expect it from him.

Fernando on the other hand, is constantly committed to having a looming presence and harsh reputation, but deep down, he's soft. He knows what happens to people when they're vulnerable, and he's not going to let himself be taken advantage of. The way he keeps a brave face when being informed of the marriage proposal, but goes back to his room and cries. The way he proclaims that he was always going to be the rightful ruler of Spain, but confides to Flavio that he never thought there was any real chance of it ever happening. The way he takes himself so seriously in public, but inside feels so giddy whenever he can make someone laugh. Everything to him always feels unstable and ready to crumble at any moment, and he's not willing to contribute to that by letting himself relax.

I think thats why it's very difficult for them to get along at first, because they have completely different approaches to how they carry themselves and make their way through life. Seb is confused at Fernando because he feels that he's very bland and overly serious at first, but truthfully he's not really seeing the actual Fernando. And Fernando finds Seb to be naive and easily taken advantage of, but that's because he's never seen Seb at his most cruel. Seb really loves when he eventually gets to see Fernando being vulnerable, and Fernando really admires and respects Seb when he sees him being serious. I think it just takes a while for them to show the other their full and complete selves, even the parts they can sometimes be ashamed of. There's this very compelling dichotomy in Seb laying out all his cards, but still being very difficult to read, and Fernando keeping his cards to his chest, but his intentions often being easily seen through.

#meanwhile everyone else: what is this weird fucked up mating ritual they are participating in #though i think its very interesting how their motivations differ #seb wants to lull people into a false sense of security(and also really just likes to be his complete unadulterated self) #and fernando is guarding himself because he doesn't want to get hurt #and i think seb convinces Fernando that its okay to be openly soft and yourself :) not eveyrone is out to get you #and fernando teaches seb hey maybe dont invite this obvious assassin to your chambers????? #i think seb also has insecurites but Fernando's are just more easy to explain bcs hes in a much more difficult situation #at the end of the day both of them are putting on facades in some way #(i think seb likes to be himself but also does feel really hurt when people dont think he has the capacity or ability to rule effectively) #(he likes to be kind and playful and doesnt want to obscure that part of himself. but hes aware it can hurt his image unfortunately) #also lol the way i characterize fernando is very historically accurate btw #bcs the spanish court tradition was basically to be above it all and be a lofty unobtainable figure if that makes sense #yknow having just this insane level of confidence and infallible image of yourself as the ruler #the guy seb is based on really bought into that idea but i dont think it really suits seb so yeah #seb I think is very much a unique figure that others have a lot of trouble reading him and his intentions. which is great! #AAAAAHHH MAN FELT REALLY GOOD TO WRITE ALL THAT OUT !!!!!!!!! #i love writing their characterization so fucking much you dont understand #its nice to put it in words like this bcs yknow i dont rly enjoy actual writing. but this i enjoy greatly #hope this is compelling to more than just me hahaha #boy king au #catie.rambling.txt #vettonso

klavier i think is THE most helpful prosecutor we've ever gotten. like by far

#edgeworth franziska and manfred: all worse than worthless. actively hid witness testimonies and told them not to say things #only with an asterisk on edgeworth in farewell my turnabout in which he wildly oscillated between helping and hurting #godot was like mostly neutral (verbal/coffee attacks to the defense aside) #and actually let the witnesses say whatever they wanted to their hearts content. for better or worse #except on occasion when he deemed it acceptable to assist or whatever all those borderline teaching moments were #but gavin is like. actually for real helping us. its so nice to have a prosecutor who doesnt have a personal grudge against us for once #or at least if he does hes not letting it influence his prosecuting #lorillee liveblogs aa4

scribbly first date type affair (continuation of my modern au stuff)

#witch hat tag #orufrey #idk when the next modern au thing will be so i'll just post this by itself. hehe #that art was one of qifrey's first drawings. it was of a creepy eye. (it was around the time he got glasses as a kid) #(and was told that he might lose his sight completely one day so he became an emo because he already wanted to be an artist #like beldaruit who ran his foster home where he encouraged kids to draw art to express their feelings.) #and an insidious deviantart group called The Brimhats idk stole it & reposted it. he never got to the bottom of who exactly did it. #but one day. they will fucking suffer. #(he believes their goal was to develop AI art as they said stuff like 'all art should belong to everyone anyway' & 'there shouldnt be rules' #but actually they were probably just regular mean ppl who have moved on to new things in life than stealing kids' art on deviantart. #who knows though.) i want people to retain their disabilities or general tragedies like beldaruit would be in a wheelchair #and coco's mum is in a coma. but its just so funny if qifrey just has regular bad eyesight #and it's so cute that he would say he doesnt think of beldaruit as a dad & is distant with him but now basically runs a foster home too #where he doesnt just encourage like he was encouraged but actively teaches kids from sad backgrounds to become wonderful artists one day #anyway i am so fucking hungry now goodbye #P.S. BELDARUIT IS NOT OLD !!!!!!! i mean if qifrey is late 20s or older in canon like i want... i guess he..but.... NO !!!!!! 😭 #*edits in some follow-up drawings* #oru: i couldn't c-c-confess my feelings bc it always seems like he's worried about something..i shouldnt bother him.. #qif: *always worried about how to confess his feelings* #ive decided meeting at 7 on da is kind of ridiculous actually. i think they probably meet at like age 10 in canon..not immediately =_= #since beru-sama is like 'he finally found a friend'. whatever... this'll be my last art post for a while probably so see ya <3

PJO AU where Luke is really just THAT silly all the time, not even evil, he's just that dorky older brother who hypes up his sister to every new kid(&Kronos is still trying to channel all that towards getting him&his bros outta tartarus)

Luke who causes trouble or watches some other kid cause trouble and hightails out of there (dragging other kid behind him).

Everyone is so sick of him cheering on Annabeth, he will tell everyone she's the most powerful ever (he beats her in 9/10 bouts) (Clarisse beats her 8/10 bouts and holds such a grudge but Luke also beats Clarisse 10/10 bouts so Clarisse can't do shit)

He offers snacks to campers annoying his cabin, no one outside his cabin accepts them more than once (they're poisoned in some way, nothing deadly just uncomfortable)

Every new kid in his cabin he takes through every activity, he never gives any instructions cause how can they see what they're naturals at if they give instructions? There have been more than a few injuries cause of this but his cabin finds it hilarious

Other cabins beg Chiron to put someone less silly in charge, Mr. D thinks it's hilarious too so refuses to allow it

#luke castellan #life answers #anon asks #pjo au #pjo tv show #reference at least #still being driven insane that they gave Percy literally no guidance on his archery form holy shit #he doesnt suck no one is teaching him! #choosing to believe with all my might that it's cause Luke wants to see whst theyre naturals at #silly luke

[fiovske]

i am going to say something controversial here. i don't think Ed is that happy to sit and fold laundry. I don't think Ed is happy to be sitting in a place with nothing else to do. I think he would get bored real quick again of these repetitive tasks.

I am not entirely convinced with "I'm folding socks. And that's completely okay." I don't think it's that okay with him. At that moment, he's trying more than anything to reassure Stede that this is what he wants, that this is a choice he made and Stede shouldn't feel guilty for it - and at the same time he is worried that without his beard, now visually stripped of that persona, Stede won't find him exciting anymore. I think in this scene Ed is trying very much to overcompensate, as he is trying to seek Stede's approval that this is something they can both settle for, that he's content here and hopefully Stede is too, right? This is a best-case scenario for the two of them, given the circumstances.

He folds the socks then unfolds them and then folds them again. His hands are itching for something more to do. He wants the finer comforts of life but he loves the seas too much to settle for no adventure at all. He didn't think he was allowed to want anything more. His eyes light up at the idea of inventing new names, escaping to China, a new hope blooming at the prospect of a new life where he is loved by Stede and it fuels his energy his shoulders don't slump and he gets so excitable at the prospect of the escape he was all meh about until a moment ago. He wants another adventure, he wants the seas he wants the piracy of it all.

He just doesn't want it to be as rough and cutthroat as he is used to. He wants to mellow out. He wants to be able to pirate merchant ships and then welcome Stede with loving arms on their shared ship. He wants the middle ground, the sweet spot where things are fun to loot and pirate when he's doing it with Stede. That's the most fun he's had in years, maybe ever. He wants the loving environment Stede creates for him to explore these softer parts of himself, something he has been missing all along. I agree that he feels the need to sever himself from "Blackbeard" in this process but I feel like if he retired completely he would be unsatisfied, it would not keep his soul still. He would love folding laundry if it wasn't the only thing he does.

I feel like the ideal way for Ed to be happy is if he gets to be a pirate, have his adventures on the high seas, where he lets Stede take the lead in the looting but without feeling the need to contribute to the looting to feel happy about this shared equality of co-captaincy. He wants to be seen as soft, as loving and be soft and loving. He doesn't want to be a pirate from the necessity of it as he had been pushed to before because of poverty, among so many other things. He wants to be able to enjoy his life, finer silk and marmalade on toast. He also wants to get to choose when he wants to be "the dread pyrate Blackbeard" for shits and giggles bc planning the theatrical antics of their piracy makes Stede laugh, but not have to perform this role in a way that is taxing and all consuming, like it had gotten for him until he met Stede and found a respite; and realized he was allowed to want something more, something different.

#ofmd #edward teach #our flag means death #ofmd meta #ed teach #stede bonnet #blackbonnet #blackbeard #i guess a lot of ppl will disagree #but i think blackbeard is an integral part of him. and he has to make his peace with it #i think he still wants to be a pirate. just a different flavour of pirate. #where he doesnt have to resort to the brand of violence and toxic masculinity #he wants to be free from THAT. #i still think he loves the seas too much to like. envision a future without it. #and be truly content without it. #me.txt
