#if it’s any additional comfort

[otaku553]

I just want u to know that your art is my comfort art, I love looking at it whenever I’m feeling meh or tired, like right now lol.

Since I see that you seem to enjoy the ASL trio, I recommend reading don’t bury me with gold by anonymous on ao3. I think you’d like it, considering how you described your love for Sabo a few posts ago! It’s a Sabo-centric fic too!

https://archiveofourown.org/works/25577467/chapters/62072158

HI HELLO YOU HAVE EXCELLENT TASTE

this is one of my favorite fics in the entire fandom actually. Holy shit. It’s funny that you should recommend it because I have ranted about it nonstop to my friends for a while about it

The characterization of Sabo is just so perfect in this???? The thing is that in canon, Sabo doesn’t end up having to choose between his nobility and being a revolutionary, mostly because his ties to his nobility are already cut by his amnesia, but also because he has no reason to remain a noble in the first place beyond the leverage they try to hold over him. Sabo as a world noble however Cannot leave his situation because it is the way he is the most useful to the revolutionaries.

Also their deconstruction of the way the world nobles operate and how they choose successors among the nobles is excellent. The fact that they actively look for those who are able to see outside of the conditioning they have applied to their children to have them lead and uphold their corrupt institution is so interesting?? Not to mention Sabo’s entire struggle between his morality and his nobility and how in this he is surrounded by a scenario that makes it all the harder to uphold his morality and how there are times when he does actually feel the need to make Imu or the elders proud and just ughhghshdghsdgjsdg

I love everything about this fic and I wish there were more of it lmao I went on a spree after this fic of looking for more sabo-centric fics that placed him in an inescapable position as a noble but nothing hits quite as hard as this fic

#thank you for the compliments and the fic rec!!! #I’ve exhausted a decent amount of the sabo fics because I’ve gone through and just filtered his character tag lmao #chances are if it’s got over…. 800? kudos I’ve already read it #but please feel free to send more fic recs I am always looking for more good fics to read #im happy to know that my art can serve as a comfort also :))) #if it’s any additional comfort #answering these asks with little doodles is my little comfort thing when I start feeling existential or slightly depressed #so in a sense it’s kind of mutual :)

i love neuvifuri’s dynamic and relationship. like. imo they are the epitome of “we are inseparable, we are in love in every way, we are soulmates not by birth or due to fate binding us inexplicably but because we spent those 500 years being the one constant in each others lives and weve come to know each other the best, but we are simultaneously strangers. we never truly knew each other during all that time.“

and neuvillette knew for so long furina was keeping a secret from him and it pained him to force that secret into the light, but he knew he had to in order to save fontaine, and despite that he still wanted to do it as gently as possible. to make the trial the last resort if the travelers conversation didnt work. after the final events of the archon quest, he let furina go wherever she wished, he (if im remembering correctly) gave her a nice house and enough funds to do as she pleased and live comfortably. he used his new authority over hydro to give her a vision made specifically for her, the very first vision he has given out. he has made it as clear as day that she is welcome to talk to him, to ask to have tea, to ask him for whatever or simply just to talk.

neuvillette using those actions to say “i hope you let me know who you truly are, and allow me to stay in your life for as long as you wish, but i love you so i will not force you.”

#anyway new comfort m/f ship dropped. #genshin impact #furina #neuvillette #neuvifuri #i hope this is comprehensible to anyone other than myself. sometimes i completely lose track of my point when ranting about my blorbos #and in addition to that i also just have trouble verbally or textually translating thoughts into words that exactly describe my feelings #ALSO! this doesnt even have to be romantic. i equally adore platonic and queerplatonic interpretations #i just also love the romantic feelings between the two but feeling scared to act on it #especially from furinas perspective bc shes desperate to relearn who she is #and as much as she truly loves neuvillette shes hesitant to start approaching those feelings #again bc she is just starting to catch up on lost youth + a little bit of that fear of vulnerability near inherent in any relationship #yeah im super normal about them why do you ask? #genshin #genshin neuvillette #genshin furina #also i dont fucking care if you dislike neuvifuri and believe in whatever ship supremacy. idc leave me alone i dont want ship discourse. #let me enjoy my blorbos in peace or ill block you

Okay, I know I'm desperately behind on Hermitcraft but things I enjoyed so much about Ren's king introduction from Joe's POV:

- The immediate consensus that the tower is not only small and cramped but also smells

- Joe showing up with a totem and an invis pot after a perfectly innocent and normal summons, obviously expecting trouble (this is not his first rodeo)

- Cleo taking every opportunity to laugh at Ren's rp sillyness like an older sibling (just like in the life series)

- Xisuma's general air of mystified confusion through this entire spectacle

- Just the entire awkwardness around Ren logging out and logging in again. The invis potion. The shuffle to get everyone's armour off and stop tossing random stuff on the floor. The awkward length of the pause. Ren being way too loud coming back in. Joe cutting out exactly none of this. Chef's kiss. Perfection.

- Iskall's "slay, king!"

- Bdubs whole sandpaper speech

- "Just as long as you don't come anywhere near me with oil, you're good." "You might get oiled." "Noooo :("

- xB's concrete slab dreams. A true visionary

- "Get called king in the Twitch chat once and this is what happens"

- "All in favour of Ren the king being king on this server, say aye!" [Incomprehensible confused noise muddle]

- "I shall take the crown with honour and I shall serve you with every inch of my body!" [Even more vague and Deeply Uncomfortable noise muddle]

- "Don't worry about the burning sound, it's all gonna be fine!"

- Ren ending the meet by just logging out a second time and not coming back dhfbfjs

#hermitcraft #shade rambles #instant addition to the comfort episode list #there's a reason why i watch Joe #well there are many reasons by one of them is the fact that he didn't cut any of the messiness out of that #it's just so nice to see a little behind the scenes #like yeah that's. that really is just a more professional version of what happens when my friends and i record #love it

The fallout show isn’t NOT anticapitalist, but it’s anticapitalist in that way that a lot of recent media goes for, where it makes vague gestures towards ideas like ‘There Is Wealth Inequality, Perhaps’, or ‘maybe a few dozen people having more money than god Isn’t A Good Thing, Actually’. But ultimately it kinda just tiptoes around commenting on anything systemic by offloading the blame onto its shadowy cabal of the ultra-rich, and turning the wastelander underclass into a constant running joke that the audience is expected to laugh along at. Which like. Fine. That’s honestly more than I was expecting I guess. But bad-appling fallout feels like missing the point extra hard, given how much it absolves the US of its role in everything, up to and including literal nuclear armageddon

#fallout #fallout prime #and that’s not even touching on the weird tonal dissonance? #like. you can’t make any meaningful commentary about classism in your setting if you’re gonna turn right and around and start jeering #‘look at these stupid ignorant fucks. Isn’t it funny how stupid and ugly and mean they all are?’ #‘It’s probably because they’re so poor and dirty and starving’ #‘And it’s fine when the protagonist of the moment guns them down cause they’re just crazy raiders!’ #you understand why those two messages can’t coexist comfortably right? #anyways I finished the fallout show and honestly? my many many may complaints aside? it wasn’t awful #it very much didnt know what it wanted to be or say #but it was fun enough #I felt appropriately pandered to in parts #and it was clearly very lovingly crafted by the people who made it #overall it would have served much better as a non-canon addition to the franchise #but at the end of the day bethesda can knock over all the sandcastles it likes #doesn’t mean I’m gonna start taking their canon seriously #also moldaver can **** me **** in the ***** ******** *** ***** #who said that

a rly underrated thing about crazy ex girlfriend imo is that it's one of the rare shows i know of that really spends time on exploring what the process of having children is like for queer ppl/for those who go about it "non-normatively". it's not even rly a main storyline but i still find it rly well-handled and touching.

#idk i feel like in the general consciousness (deciding to) having kids as a queer person is either treated as impossible #(which is true to an extent in some jurisdictions tbf - at least if you want the legal status of parents) #or is imo way oversimplified #like yeah most ppl know ivf is A Fucking Process but many ppl still seem to underestimate iui for example #or there's an assumption that all couples with no sperm between them choose to use a sperm bank and that that process is easy #and doesn't require any reflection (which it isn't and it does) #or that if you choose to go with a known donor finding a donor is an easy process (which it also rly isn't) #or for couples where no one can get pregnant that surrogacy goes without saying (in addition to the fact that surrogacy is banned #in Many Places where other MAR techniques aren't #finding a surrogate is also orders of magnitude more difficult than finding a gamete donor) #or that adoption is an obvious solution - idk if those ppl know any gay couples who are trying to adopt but i do #they've been in the process for SIX psychologically excruciating years and it will likely be another year before they actually have a child #and that's for white college-educated materially comfortable ppl #and idk but cxg does a rly good job with the storyline - from Darryl and White Josh's disagreement about whether to have kids #to Darryl's decision to have a kid alone #to him asking Heather and Rebecca for help with that process #to the fact that Heather and Rebecca's feelings about Hebecca are v realistic and nuanced atm #not at all maternal bc that's never what they wanted or planned for (being a mother to this child) but also not indifferent #for example the 'hello nice to meet you' reprise - i legit think that's the only time i've ever seen a known donor's attitude and feelings #about the child they helped create but in no way consider 'theirs' being explored. even in thirty seconds. #or even just the fact that Darryl is a lawyer and requests help from both a gamete donor and a gestational carrier - yes! #as far as i understand in the us 'surrogacy' (one person being pregnant with their own ovule) gives the pregnant person legal parental stat #and thus requires giving up those rights and sometimes adoption after birth #while 'splitting things up' between a donor and a carrier also cuts through that 'biological' link for the purposes of legal recognition #i might be wrong in my understanding of this but if not it's cool to see it handled realistically including wrt how the legal consequences #influences decisions about which choices you make #reproduction cw #children cw #adoption cw

getting better at drawing when you’re not trying for realism is kinda funny bc it’s like wow now my art looks even MORE like the exact midpoint between old-school disney and late 2010s anime. i didn’t think it was possible and yet i’ve done it again. inspiring

#and soon? even More. #there’s also the additional layer of not being able to explain what about my art is better than it used to be #like idk what to tell u it’s just better now. all my old stuff is crap compared to this. leaps and bounds #source: dude trust me #tbh i think my artistic abilities probably seem much more consistent from an outside pov #bc i never want to draw anything i can’t draw #like if i TRIED to draw that cuteguy stoplight drawing a few months ago it would have looked terrible #but i wouldn’t have tried bc i wouldn’t have wanted to bc i couldn’t you see #that’s the thing about art it never feels any easier #if you start out frustrated by your skill falling short of your vision guess what #your vision will continue to improve as you gain skill and that frustration never goes away #but it also never feels any harder #my first experience with drawing was being pleasantly surprised to find my skill slightly exceeded my aspirations #(i was 3 and my aspirations were draw a duck) #and you know what. to this day the pleasant surprise remains #what i’m saying is dream small stay in your comfort zone and do not strive for great things #cannot recommend complacency enough #this isn’t sports you don’t get gains through effort you get gains and then the effort happens on accident #don’t listen to me i probably don’t know what i’m talking about #but i AM having more fun drawing than you so maybe i’m onto something #impossible to say #i’m certainly not smart enough to figure that out i’m an idiot have you seen the kind of advice i give #mumbling

[waywardsalt]

i have planned to write a pseudo-essay or some kind of detailed look at linebeck in phantom hourglass and how he can be interpreted as autistic but thats not going very well right now so here are some autistic linebeck headcanons

He has low empathy and as such has a hard time responding very well to emotional situations, but he can take advantage of his lower empathy in situations where empathy could make things harder, like tending to wounds or rationally handling emotionally-charged situations

His coat is a comfort object and he made it specifically to act as a very slight accommodation; it’s heavy and barely lets any light through it, and he can keep all kinds of little things in pockets sewn into the inner lining, but larger objects do make it more uncomfortable to wear at times. It’s mostly good to carry around things to fidget or stim with and can be helpful in trying to recover from overwhelming sensory experiences

He doesn’t usually stim in public, but taps his fingers on tables quickly and tends to rhythmically snap his fingers when excited, and on his ship is more vocal and more willing to stim, even if around others. One of his main stims that he’ll do for no particular reason is that he’ll hold his arm or back of his wrist/hand up to his nose and mouth for the smell.

He masks frequently to please people. His default mask is that arrogant and brave front he puts up for islanders and other he may come across. Usually, if that mask doesn’t work, he tends to double-down because it usually works and, in his experience, dropping the mask has usually gone badly (non masking he’s rude and blunt but more outwardly excited about adventure and his ship and all of that, i consider it where overseas in the game is when he usually isn’t masking. this shifts his arc to be about him learning to stop masking and feel comfortable being himself)

His special interests could include stuff related to treasure hunting but it could really range from stuff about adventuring or the ocean or engineering (relating to his ship) to stuff not at all touched in the game like music. He really enjoys music, listening to it, playing it, and writing it. He also enjoys and is fascinated by shellfish.

When busy or otherwise occupied, he doesn't usually notice when he's hungry. He doesn't have as much of a problem noticing thirst or exhaustion, but feeling hunger is a problem for him, and often leads to him going a long time without eating. On the other hand, he doesn't mind eating the same thing repeatedly and is perfectly fine with blander foods, so handling food supplies for when he'll be overseas for a long time is easy for him.

He knows he's autistic, he's known for a pretty long time, and he has books on it; he also knows that Link is autistic, but doesn't say anything about it and instead waits until someone else tells him. Until (and after, I suppose) Link actually learns that he's autistic Linebeck just makes sure to keep note of what accommodations he might need and if there are any textures or tastes or smells he can't stand. He doesn't have much of a problem helping out during sensory overloads, even soon after meeting him. It's more out of understanding how it feels to not have your needs met and a sort of solidarity rather than actual friendship.

#loz #legend of zelda #phantom hourglass #linebeck #OBVIOUSLY he experiences some nasty rsd and he's a bitch about it that's like. basically canon so i didnt mention it #a lot of linebeck’s autism is based and referenced off of my own with some extra additions #which is why i have an easier time writing him as autistic than link #kindness is a choice and having low or no empathy does not in any way make someone heartless but linebeck does abuse his own low empathy #to be a mean bitch with minimal emotional consequences #i think linebeck would call link a dipshit to his face and then not feel bad about it for like a few weeks until he starts caring abt him #linebeck stimming by smelling his arm is actually my main stim. its probably why i sit all fucked up bc i sometimes do it w/ my legs lol #the masking bit does kinda fuck some stuff up but i personally enjoy that take on him #one of his comfort objects is an old orange cat plushie named copernicus and if you know what that is specifically from thank you im sorry #linebeck being way into music has no canon backup i just like the idea of him playing piano and composing some form of his own theme #piano is a mad sensory experience btw i dont yet know how to really play it but when i did keyboard in pit it was a fantastic feeling #bangin' out the tunes. it was a really good sort of stim if i was feeling a bit overwhelmed by all of the new tech and music too #salty talks #not entirely an autism headcanon but he thinks gender is a sham and less identifies as a man and more specifically considers #his gender identity to be 'real man of the sea' which is initially kinda silly but kind of a fucking gender move tbh #i dont think he's explicitly trans or nb he's just having fun fucking with his own gender and doing whatever he feels like doing #he isnt a man but he is a man. kind of like how im a dude but also not. yeah. #these were initally going to be call 'quick' headcanons but you can see why i uh. didn't end up going with that

DNI has been updated.

#ooc. #this addition is something i may be enforcing loosely #but my comfort level may cause me to soft block in the event of any exclusive dealings with this individual #i know we're all here to write #i know this is a hobby #but what happened that prompted this addition should NOT have happened

[pearl-kite]

Yes, I DO actively consider the potential drawbacks to sleeping naked when it's -10F outside, and that generally looks like imagining having to run outside from a house fire swaddled in a quilt

#kite rambles #it's never enough to deter me either #most recently in addition to imagining myself running outside in a quilt i comforted myself with the knowledge that #standing next to a burning house would actually be quite warm #and the main issue would probably be my bare feet and maintaining any sense of decency when firefighters arrive #this is probably tmi but i should be asleep and i have no decency. so

[ms0milk]

Hi so I've had this really specific request in mind for a long time and it totally fine if you don't want to write it bc it's angsty, but i was wondering if you could do something about how some characters from Demon Slayer would react to or approach the issue of their s/o having an extremely hard time orgasming during intercourse bc of really bad trauma revolving around sex. (Preferably Tengen, Sanemi, Obanai, or Giyuu if you wanted to do the Hashira. And if you wanted to do for the demons, then Akaza, Douma, Kokushibo, or Muzan)

hi hi thank u for popping by!

I've actually been contemplating a similar theme recently and I haven't been sure which fandom to write it for-- so, good timing :) this is a situation that totally speaks to my heart so this req is def in my wips list now!

#pom.postage #when i write it out it probably wont include mentions of sa or past violence just so a wider audience can relate #BUT #know that i will keep this experience in mind ofc! its something personal to me and i know that the this kind of comfort can be so importan #if that makes sense #hmu with any questions or additions :)

❤️💕💕💕

wahahaha phil hit 4mil and i just hit 1.6k. funny

thx techno m8

from the bottom of my heart thanks to all of you for your incredibly kind words these past few days, i love you and it’s been an absolute honor to be here with you all. if i’ve been able to help out this wonderful community in any way then i’m happy, so thank you ❤️

i’m super tired now… i didn’t sleep very well last night, couldnt stop crying. but today phil’s stream made me feel like i got patched up and patted on the back and so i’ve been doing a lot better since that, and i’m really sleepy, so i’ll head off to bed now

there’s still a couple clips queued for tonight and tomorrow as well, but i think i’ve pretty much exhausted the techno clips market LOL although if you see one/post one i haven’t reblogged yet, feel free to @ me in them. i would love to keep collecting little techno moments on this blog

goodnight!

love and peace to all of you, tomorrow will be a better day

❤️ cia

#❤️ #and some additional rambling in the tags as is cia-typical #i don’t know when this blog will go back to ‘normal’.. whatever that means to you #i haven’t been on my dash except for just a few minutes at a time since this all. the most time i’ve spent on it was 4am when it was quieter #i haven’t been using any social media to see anything new. i’ve been exclusively going directly to my favorite channels to watch youtube #and been searching up my favorite blogs to reblog from #i don’t know how long it’ll take for that to pass #it’s kinda nice like this #but yeah #i will keep posting about him until i feel capable of doing anything else. and right now i don’t #most likely thing is i’ll only be posting about phil and wilbur other than him #cause those two bring me a lot of peace and comfort #i’ve not moved on and i won’t force myself to. i’m learning not to do that this time #i don’t particularly want to move on like normal. i don’t ever want to stop talking about techno and appreciating him #it feels like preserving his memory is the most important thing for me right now #so i’ll be doing that in whatever ways i can #once again i appreciate you all for being here and i’m so grateful for your presence in my life #i love you and please stay safe. be kind to yourself

headcanon: address of lordship — rhea’s official title is “ruling lady of runestone”, the highest in the hierarchy among the small runestone council of order, and is relatively understood to be the second most influential after house arryn in the vale. any address of her position is referred to as “lordship” however, as is the custom ( to compare: it’s not ‘ladyship’ because she gives her services as a lord, like all the others before her, and at present ), though she responds strictly to milady and lady royce.

#in addition to that: she takes no official title from the targary3n dynasty despite the marriage. #idk if they follow the british monarchy where rhea - married into the dynasty - can be referred to as princess? #but even if it’s granted; she does not. #and i think thats mostly bc shes very comfortable in her position as is #and she knows if she takes on more; she will want to expand her duty. #and at this point her hands are busy enough as is. #also early in her marriage - she dutifully wore any ring or jewellery symbolising her attachment to the targary3n #especially in official courts — up until alysanne passed. #then she stopped. (one day i shall talk abt rhea’s weird mix of respect and anger at alysanne - but not today!) #babe looks up 2 strong women; babe can also recognise strong women can use their power even when it isnt wanted. wasnt asked. #BRONZE: HEADCANONS.
