Me: Aw, Silver is turning out to be a sweet guy to and with Suvi and I hope we get to see more of hi-

Brennan: He's leaving for the front kudos see you next week 🫰🏻

#heartbreak for plot #that being said #the radical difference that is shown between Suvi who gets so many people's support and appreciation as she comes into her power #and the utter loniless of Ame who's gotten her title before she herself had the confidence to feel ready #and at the end of the day Ame goes to bed with the Fox who's just the part of her soul that expresses outloud what she thinks to herself #whereas Suvi gets to go find her lover/boyfriend-to-be/comrade who knows what she's going through to find solace in his arms #so YEAH SUVI #ofc you think about Ame and how her status provides her with a deep loneliness #specific to people who haven't grown up with a secure support system #and yes it's so good that Suvi gets to see Silver leave for the front because her solid pillars of (somewhat) privilege need to be rocked #and yeah the juicy drama that can come out of maybe the Citadel being in danger ? or having to save Silver at the front ? #idk I'm eager for what comes #twtwatwo #the wizard the witch and the wild one #worlds beyond number #wbn #aabria iyengar #suvi the wizard #sky the wizard #erika ishii #ame the witch #ALSO training under the watchful eye of the Great Bear

he has all these feelings and he can't find a way to express them in a way that mike can understand..... will just wanting to be understood by one of the people he loves most in this world.... the king of his heart, his very first and best friend, and his first love.... he wants to be known and loved for exactly who he is the very same way that he knows and loves mike for all that he is, but he doesn't know how to say the unspeakable.... i can't see through ym tears right now

#reading this again just to feel something (agony misery pain anguish and world-shattering heartbreak) #will byers #byler #mine #the way that will loves mike so much he's quite literally actually and canonically bursting with it and desperate to have it be understood #but he just. he cannot express it in a way tht mike understands. he paints and he veils his confession and he waits for mike even though #he receives nothing in return and he supports him through everything even at the cost of himself and his own desires and it just. #is not enough! his call doesn't get through! the same way that mike's literal calls never got through! i just. AHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Mysterious Lotus Casebook ~ ep. 31

All these years, he's always been alone. You are the only friend I've ever seen him with.

#mysterious lotus casebook #li lianua #feng duobing #this scene wrecked me six ways from sunday #because llh continues to lie to him CONSTANTLY #but fdb understands that it's who llh is #how llh MUST be in order to LIVE with himself #and fdb is willing to put up with a llh who lies through his teeth rather than a lxy who is honest about himself #because then at least he'll be with a LLH who is ALIVE #and whenever llh talks about lxy being dead he means it #he cannot phyiscally live with the reality of who his past self was and what he did #so fdb expressing here that he doesn't need to know every inch of llh #is the greatest expression of love and acceptance I've ever seen #it's a devastating and bittersweet inverse of #the mortifying ordeal of being known #and I think I'm going to go cry myself to sleep now #(PS llh's heartbreaking little smile at the end is maybe the most sincere expression of happiness we've ever seen from him and I AM NOT OK)

So there's implications that sometimes the aliens deliberately match up contestants with strong relationships to increase the drama and potentially get more emotional performances out of the contestants.

We also know that Alien Stage is firmly treated as reality show-level entertainment. The Segyein are casually talking about brand deals and critiquing performances while several characters we deeply care about are forced to kill to survive and sometimes watch people they love die in front of them.

During Ivan's pre-Round 6 interview, the interviewer kept needling him about his connection to Till, how Ivan felt about facing him.

The Segyein thought that facing Ivan and Till against eachother would be some dramatic storyline on the side of 'most popular season contestant against rough around the edges musical prodigy, also they have HISTORY 👀', but it actually turned in a tragic display of how this whole system finally broke Till and Ivan sacrificing his guaranteed win to save him anyway, because to Ivan, Till mattered as a person he loved and not as a commodity.

Till finally ended up as docile and broken as his owner had wanted him to be all along, and it took away his love of music while making his performance in alien stage worse (I think Till in round 6 is a good example of how 'tortured artists' don't actually always produce great or profound art from their trauma. The far more likely outcome is they just end up depressed and losing the fucking will to live kfdjks)

Meanwhile Ivan has everything going for him, he's become a popular, profitable commodity through Alien Stage, he always did what he was told and was a model pet-human, and he was guaranteed to win Round 6 with the state Till was in.

But he threw all that away to save Till without a second of hesitation. Ivan was given a choice between losing Till, a pet-human that many Segyein view as inferior and disposable, and the highest quality of life a pet-human can aspire to, and he said 'fuck you, I love him' to everyone watching.

#EVERY ASPECT OF TILL THAT MADE HIM A BAD PET-HUMAN AND UNAPPEALING TO SPONSORS IS SOMETHING THAT IVAN LOVED ABOUT HIM WITH ALL HIS HEART #I'm so normal about this #I just KNOW the PR aliens are spinning this into a freak accident and not a deeply flawed but genuine and heartbreaking expression of love #alien stage #alnst #alien stage ivan #alien stage till #alnst ivan #alnst till #ivantill

#who wouldve guessed more 07 ghost art.... #almost done with the anime now but ep 20 ish took me OUT my heart is bursting #copying the text i wrote for ig here: #i was initially going to just use the english as a caption but it really doesnt get the emotion across properly. #spent a good fifteen minutes rephrasing thr words as accurately to the original quote as possible while maintaining the intention. #affirming that he's gained so much (cherished people and experiences) along his path despite all his heartbreaking losses. #done #YEAH I KNOW frau didnt actually do this this is just my own self indulging... makes me giddy when he gets all serious and intimate #like that expression he does. im down bad for this piece of hot garbage #going off on a tangent here but hes so fucking childish sometimes when he goes to pick teito up from his exam #this idiot took the time to arrange himself leaning leisurely against the wall and having a smoke just so he could be like oh hey #i wasnt waiting or anything im just free and rebellious and i smoke bc im cool....get real idiot #i dont have any more 07ghost art atm so lets see if the remaining eps inspire me #or the manga at the rate the anime seems to be ending :') #07 ghost #my art

aHA! i have finally figured out why i never jived with the kanade tenma hc. like you know me. THE found family guy. even if i don’t hc it myself i can still have fun watching other people have fun. but this one was always just 1. confusing and 2. not fun for me to see and i could never articulate why but i’ve got it now

the entire problem with Kanade Tenma is as a whole the fandom has a tendency to treat kanade like an orphan. like she has no family, no support system, like she’s all alone and needs to be taken in by the... tenmas... for some reason... (still not sure why the fandom decided she needs to be a tenma like she’s never even met tsukasa or saki. how is she getting over there. if she’s getting taken in by anybody it should be like... the mochizukis) and it’s like... guys. you do realize she’s not an orphan, right? she has family. she has good family. idr all the reasons why her grandma doesn’t live with her, but i’m assuming it’s along the lines of her being too old and frail to properly take care of a child at this point in her life - which is why she set kanade up with that caretaker/housekeeper system. it’s not perfect, but at least she isn’t being left to fend for herself

her dad is alive. just because he had a stroke and is now experiencing vascular dementia doesn’t mean he’s basically dead or that kanade is basically fatherless or something awful like that. (i’m genuinely still not sure what the fuck the game thinks it wrote irt what put kanade’s dad in the hospital but like. it wrote a stroke followed by vascular dementia. that’s what it did. “burnout” my fucking ass) i know at the end of the day kanade tenma is ultimately just a harmless headcanon, but like... please take a moment to think about the message even your most harmless headcanons might send. “if your parent is suffering from dementia and no longer recognizes you... well you don’t have a parent anymore. you need a new one. sorry.” obviously no one intends to say such a horrible thing, but remember that intent <<<<<<< final impression left on your outside audience.

having a family member that you love so much forget about you is a story that needs to be told. the prsk fandom needs to take a step back and just let this be told As It Is. kanade’s family is so, so fucking important to her. she’s only the person she is today because of her parents and all the gratitude and love she feels for them both. like, literally her most recent focus was her realizing how loved she was in light of mafuyu’s mother’s coldness. she knows that she experienced true unconditional love - something that mafuyu’s mom seems incapable of giving her daughter - and she still carries that love and warmth in her heart now. it’s what defines her as a person. it’s what gives her the courage to continue living. it’s why she believes she can save mafuyu and so many other people. she has that memory of what real genuine honest to god unconditional love is, and she’s so fucking determined to share it with the world.

kanade doesn’t... need a “new” family. her family may have suffered multiple tragedies, and it may be fragmented and a little broken, but... it’s hers. i don’t think it’s in good taste to take that away from her and try to “fix” her by placing her in a “better” family. it’s completely unnecessary.

#also someone on twitter said this i think but on the note of how i feel like making kanade a Tenma of all things is kind of out of the blue #like. the tenmas have nothing to do with kanade. i'm sure she'll meet saki and tsukasa at some point but ?? #they aren't significant to her development in any way. and they /won't be/ #their stories will just never intersect to that extent. trust me. #and because toya tenma (which is canon and true shut up shut up shut up learn how to READ) is often looped in with this hc too like #he doesn't have anything to do with kanade either!!!!!! she doesn't know who he is!! the tenmas are strangers to her. #so like. when you hc Kanade Tenma it feels like you're doing it for the sake of the OTHER characters and not her. #kanade HAS support systems !! she has people she's close with that she could potentially form a familial bond with! #she has niigo! she has honami! she has her literal grandma! #she has her dad even if he doesn't remember who she is. she's still able to talk to him some days and is able to connect with him by- #reliving the past with him. i can't like... express how powerful that scene where he's talking to her about how his wife is pregnant and- #how excited he is to meet their new child and that they're thinking about naming her kanade is. like it's heartbreaking but like #this kind of family dynamic is frequently glossed over in media. like i said it's a story that needs to be told as it is #learn. to explore kanade's relationship with her father and the relationships the game has spent like 200 episodes building up #stop throwing her into a random stranger's house stop thinking of her as an orphan in need of adoption.

Writing Jefferson as the softer lover, the one doing the most pining and the most feeling and being the most vulnerable yet simultaneously hiding it all behind his....✨idgaf im Thomas mf Jefferson✨ and only being this vulnerable with Hamilton and even then at the slightest hint that Hamilton might pity HIM he has to be indifferent again because "love is for losers" and he doesn't really care as much as he seems to until he's eventually emotionally hurt and has to cope with the fact that Hamilton has done this because he seemingly believed that there was nothing emotional between them because of all of Jefferson's hiding and the only way the can try and salvage what they might be able to have is Thomas finally being honest with himself and Hamilton and telling him how he feels....is so much more satisfying than with Hamilton and idk why.

#idk if its just me but when i write Alexander as having feelings for Thomas with no way to express it #i always perceive it as a crush type of thing #Alexander finds him physically attractive until they get closer (because Thomas wants to be closer to him) #and he discovers theres more under the surface. which ofc i eat up every time #i always found pining Thomas to be more heartbreaking because he's so full of himself how DARE Alexander break his heart he's beneath him!! #everyone knows i only go based off the musical and in these dynamics Thomas has more to lose than Alex #Alex has been hurt his whole life whats one more chip on the shoulder but Thomas has been lucky his whole life #So how dare one insignificant man come along and fuck everything up

This series really said - oh you thought you’d been served the worst of the Pain Train? Well, think again bitch.

They really did not have to go this hard.

When I first watched this scene, I was doing the same exact thought process as Ayan, and going no, no, no please no Akk. Do NOT. Please. Please stop. Why are you giving him back the necklace??? WHY??

#the eclipse #the eclipse series #the eclipse episode 11 #akkayan #akkaye #akk x ayan #ayan x aye #khaofirst #firstkhao #first kanaphan #khaotung thanawat #akk's breakdown being outward and bursting at the seams #ayan's heartbreak being inward and crushing his very soul #how first and khao manage to express so many completely different degrees of sadness is honestly breathtaking

no one has ever been in love in quite the way kim wexler and jimmy mcgill are in love

#you know that post that's something like every couple invents love over and over again simply by choosing to love each other? that's them #this is not me being facetious or silly i genuinely believe this #i just saw a gifset of them and was struck again by their often wordless but so meaningful expressions of care to one another #there is no relationship like theirs? it's so unique and character specific and has its own visual language #they don't do overt romanticism and yet their intimacy is all the more evident #i saw someone say they don't think they're 'in' love. my guy. what are you watching #did you SEE how he kissed her and she gravitated closer? hello #i love a million heartbreaking romances but no one is quite like them #jimmy mcgill #kim wexler #better call saul #yes hi i am so annoying about my favorite shows god bless

These two lines really stand out to me as rare instances of Theo putting his pain in uncharacteristically plain words. He’s usually so flowery with this descriptions (this is even kind of the case in the lines right after the first quote), and both in his dialogue and his narration seems to avoid this kind of straightforward emotion, this kind of vulnerability. For contrast, when boris talks unabashedly, as he does, of loving his high school girlfriend, Theo is so embarrassed he has to look away

#s #the goldfinch #sneaky liveblogs the goldfinch #there might be more lines like this I’ll keep an eye out. but these two stuck with me #especially the second one. god how heartbreaking #the simplicity and evocative ness of it all. his clothes are dirty. nobody loves him. #something as high minded as love (or lack thereof) expressed through the most prosaic of things #it’s not even ‘no one washed my clothes’ or ‘my father didn’t care about me’. it’s that his clothes were dirty. #the rest is unspoken because it’s so obvious #god.

“you know what makes it new? I trust him. I know him.“ ANGEL:“that's great, it's nice you moved on; I can't. You found someone new; I'm not allowed to, remember? I see you again, it cuts me up inside, and the person I share that with is me. You don't know me anymore, so don't come down here with your great new life and expect me to do things your way. Go home.”
