#help me be quiet

[dreamsy990]

you know i used to think it was weird how sora and roxas have such different personalities for supposedly being 'the same person' but after playing a few games i sort of realized that they do have similar personalities, because roxas acts how sora does when he's under extreme stress.

compare roxas to sora in, say, kh1. that's where a lot of peoples idea of sora's personality comes from. sora is generally very upbeat and optimistic in that game. not very similar to roxas, right?

but let's switch the game and talk about a game where sora is ABSOLUTELY GOING THROUGH IT. chain of memories.

sora's resting state is melancholy in com. he only ever cheers up in short bursts, usually when he's joking around with friends. just like roxas.

he's quick to anger, and tends to lash out at the organization members. best example of this is when larxene makes him 'remember' namine, and he swings at her repeatedly, even after she's gone. he only stops when jiminy is able to snap him out of it.

you know what scene that resembles?

sora, while a bit more on the angry side and less sad, continues to act like this in kh2 when he's in stressful situations. (he also has a tendancy to insult people which, while it's not very related to the point, is very funny and sora saying 'gonna cry?' to xigbar is great.) i cant comment any further than that about kh2 off the top of my head.

so, roxas acts like sora does when he's stressed, right? but why is roxas always acting like that? to which i say, he isnt!

he only ever acts like that when he's also in fucked up and stressful situations, which happens to be a CONSTANT in his life. but when he's hanging out with axel and xion, a decidedly NOT stressful situation, he's a lot more like sora. he's teasing his friends and insulting his coworkers and joking around and acting like a normal kid. not really important, but unless i misremembered some sora lines which is VERY possible, both roxas and sora respond to friendly insults with "oh thanks!" a lot. just a funny little detail that felt relevant.

the biggest differences between roxas and sora boil down to environment and... i dont know how to put it besides volume? roxas is very quiet and tends to keep most of his thoughts to himself, while sora is very loud and expressive in comparison.

there is one other huge difference i noticed, which is less character based and more story. sora wanted to get off destiny islands and explore with his friends, but roxas just wanted routine. sora wants adventure, and roxas wants things to stay the same, for days where he gets off work and eats ice cream with his friends to last forever, to keep having conversations about nothing and watching the sunset. roxas wants normalcy, sora wants excitement. it's just interesting seeing their contrast.

not sure if this is very well said or anything i just wanted to talk about my boys

#random thoughts #its been a while since i got to use that tag eheheh #i bet theres a few people following me who didnt even know i did analysis posts #the fact that sora and roxas grew up in very different environments is pretty important btw #roxas was already a bit quiet and being in a cult where any expression of emotion is immediately shut down probably didnt help #we'll probably never get a good idea of how roxas would be if he was in a normal situation #id say some of the twilight town stuff might be a close estimate but even that doesnt really fit considering all the shit going down #even from the very start hes being accused of theft hes Not doing the best #anyways. sora and roxas are different obviously #but theyre a lot more similar than people really talk about #kingdom hearts #roxas #sora #not rereading this so it might be a little weird and hard to read sorry

"it's just me."

you barely get a chance to roll onto your back before soonyoung's already climbing onto the bed and somewhat on top of you and your blankets, and it's only seconds later that he crashes. it's far from the first time this has happened (soonyoung is clingy and cuddly, especially when he's sleepy), but he manages to knock the wind out of you nonetheless. he rests his head on your chest, and you wiggle an arm out to curl around him as best as you can in your semi-trapped position.

"soonyoung--"

"just go back to sleep," he murmurs. "everything's fine."

you stroke his hair, thumb dipping down to graze his cheek at one point. "soonie--"

"i mean it," he says, eyes peering up in the low light to see yours. "i'm fine. just need to nap." his hand finds yours, and he wraps your arm around him as he snuggles in. he plants a kiss against your chest before resting his head against it again, eyes fluttering shut. "you can rest a little longer, too."

you settle back down after a moment, arms wrapped around soonyoung as you shut your eyes again. sometimes you swear this tiger is a teddy bear, but regardless of which he is, he's yours.

Here's a little old angst amid the kot kot chaos

#fanart #käärijä #jere pöyhönen #kiitos käärijä for helping me get out of my artblock #the duality of this fandom #one week it's quiet and every artist is compelled to draw this pic that captures a feeling beyond words #the next it's kotkotkotkot and he's a chicken #seriously though I was having a bad time last week #and starting this drawing was therapeutic #like his face just really.. looked how I felt #and I love that that pic became another accidental dtiys lmao #it's the spike horns that make him look like a sad mythical creature of sadness

#bg3edit #wylledit #gamingedit #bg3 #baldur's gate 3 #wyll ravengard #i love him so much he's such a scrunglie :( #romancing astarion in this 3d pt but then. then i'm coming back fo r you babe i swear #honestly tho he's such a complex emotional character to me #he's a living tragedy like most of the companion but the way he choose to act about it is different #and so interesting to me #cause they all go through the stages of grief but he's almost quiet about it #he takes everything with such stride and puts all of his energy in helping others cause it's almost like he's accepted #he can't help himself and there's no point in wallowing in self pity #i just want to hold him and tell him it's okay to be angry at the shitty hand of fate he was served tbh

Love how there are four main reasons why Lucifer is as avid a Demonus Connoisseur™ as we know him to be, and how all of them hurt to think about

There's the obvious, of course. All the seraphs go out drinking together. It's a little keepsake to his time as an angel, in a way. So Lucifer sits in his moonlit study down in the Devildom, only the shadows of leaves gently swaying in the wind keeping him company, pouring himself half a horn of the finest Demonus in his collection. All to honor those he once called his brothers and sisters as they fill up each other's cups and bask in the warm sunlight of the Celestial Realm

Ah, but he's not just drinking to mourn days lost to the past! He also has reason to celebrate every once in a while! Any small improvement to his and Satan's relationship is deserving of a generous reward, don't you think? See? That's a perfectly normal reason to treat yourself to a few more horns!

A couple of bottles into his system, and all the things that usually plague his mind seem so distant all of a sudden. It all turns into nothing but hazy fragments, and it's hard to piece it all back together. Although it's not like Lucifer would even want to in the first place, not when it finally makes all the things he craves to forget about slip from his mind. About the sister he failed to save. About the brothers he damned alongside him. And the crushing guilt that accompanies his every waking moment...

And then finally, there's this one glaring issue that everyone always seems to overlook when it comes to Lucifer—"his" Pride. That awful, wretched little sin, everpresent as it dictates his tone of voice, his every gesture, every word he utters, every single little facet of his personality. Lucifer—"Avatar" of Pride and the morning star himself—is nothing but a prisoner of his own mind, a mere puppet for "his" Pride to control

And so, he drinks. Drinks until even the cheapest bottles in his collection are empty. Not that it matters much to him, at least he can finally free himself from the constant pain and heartbreak that is looming over him, even if it's just for a handful of insignificant hours in this sheer endless torture that is his immortal life. After all, he can't drown in his sorrows as long as he keeps the Demonus flowing

By the time only one last bottle is left, Lucifer stares straight into the darkness of his study, his hair completely disheveled and tears cling to his face. He has long since collapsed on the ground as he brings the very last bottle of Demonus to his lips, not stopping until he has gulped down every last drop

Right now, the Avatar of Pride is nothing but a shadow of his former glory. But oh, is there a better escape from drowning in his sorrows than to keep this sweet, sweet Demonus flowing?

#THIS WAS SUPPOSED TO BE ONE SENTENCE LONG HELP WHAT HAPPENED (<- brainrot took over. that's what happened) #i genuinely think pride is the most interesting out of the seven sins simply because the way it affects lucifer is so quiet #but that's a post for another day #ALSO the fourth reason is actually canon so that's cool :) #obey me #obey me shall we date #obey me nightbringer #obey me lucifer #;mel's analyses

Mr Clarke coming back in s5 to help and ends up spending his time with one Mr Wayne Munson in an effort to find Eddie because if there’s no body Wayne isn’t giving up.

Hard cut to Eddie being carried back through a portal by Steve and seeing Mr Clarke together, and he whispers to Steve ‘I think Mr Clarke fucked my uncle’ and passes out

#mr Clarke and Wayne munson power couple WHEN?!? #they’d be such monster hunter conspiracy theorists in a quiet way #a room full of radios for tracking everything #but then a casserole in the oven and a box of cookies at the ready for guests #becuase if they have ONE THING it’s hospitality #Eddie actually loves it becuase wayne smiles and tries to hide it but can’t help himself #mr Clarke is always coming up with ideas and listens to Eddie and his friends like no other adult in authority ever has #EDDIES GOT DADS MY FRIENDS #Steve gets adopted in and it’s chaos but in a way that families are #he goes to bed every night thinking he’s finally made it #GIRL HELP THE OLD MEN GOT ME #stranger things #eddie munson #steddie #steve harrington #wayne munson #mr clarke

The Batfam is so busy that Alfred could be doing anything in that damn house and nobody would know a thing. Running a criminal empire of his own, meeting with MI6 contacts, cultivating several hobbies, hosting charity events and having unwitting, half-asleep batkids mingle on their way back from patrol (and heading to bed in civilian clothes) or distracted batkids mingle on their way to the Cave. Alfred could be watching fitness influencers and working out in the Greenhouse (he's got his suit and whatnot stashed in multiple locations for quick changes).

#I mean yeah he usually moonlights as “the guy in the chair/van” #but with the addition of so many people to help Bruce out #And also the fact that the house is likely empty (or close to it) a lot of the time #it got me thinking about how Alfred must be filling his time #HC of my HC that Duke is the only person who had a shot of knowing but since he works in the day and usually sleeps at night he doesn't #alfred pennyworth #man could be vlogging #running conspiracy sites about who batman is and how its actually that quiet butler who works out of Wayne Manor #batman #dc comics

Trying to design a cool lich but I am struggling to find funeral wear or like death masks (I know of some from other religions but I wanna tap the Christian vein cuz - if they can terrify me I can make a cool robot from them!!) and damn guys cowards for not covering your face more. Come onnnn just veils for hair at most? Lame. Saturn hats? Sleep caps? Or a bejeweled beehive? Cowards

This design is going to ultimately change but- can’t have a magical girl moment without the base,,, scary ass form

#me - in the middle of like five pieces #brain - design then next onnneee tooooooo #a lich can magical girl just you wait #scariest support coming in to help #and give nightmares #nightmares to the man who makes flesh robots very lovingly quiet often #it’s great #he deserves some fucking #I love him but he’s #Victor

Prompt:

Damian and Tim are trapped together in a cave system.

That itself wouldn’t be too bad (or too out of the ordinary) if Damian hadn’t been injured in the initial collapse.

Now he’s alone, with their comms transmitting and receiving nothing, with the pretender he’d been trying to kill on several occasion.

And Damian is only all too aware that grandfather’s “favorite detective” would have every right to kill him in retaliation. And the perfect opportunity to get away with it.

#Tim thinks about killing Damian for a hot second #but more so because the demon spawn keeps insulting him #and he really needs some peace and quiet to work on a plan here #also Damian took a rather concerning blow to the head #Tim doesn’t hate Damian he’s just royally pissed at him #meanwhile Dick : WHERE IS MY BABY #Bruce trying not to panic: idk #Jason: ten bucks say Timmers kicks it down there #Dick: JASON NOT HELPING #Steph: you really expected him to help? #meanwhile Damian: ‘Tell Grayson he’s a nuisance but I love him’ #Tim: can’t you tell him??? yourself???? #Damian: aren’t you gonna kill me??? #Tim: no????????????? #Damian: then you’re stupid????????????? #so many question marks lmao #some Tim and Dami bonding ok #jason todd #batfamily #dick grayson #batfam #bruce wayne #robin #tim drake #Damian wayne #Tim and Damian #prompts
