#if plan fails. make new plan

[lavenderjewels]

Despite jjk already being tragic for multiple characters, it’ll be beautiful if Yuuji manages to save Megumi from Sukuna. One of the best aspects of their relationship from the start (although possibly not the healthiest) has been their unconditional desire to save and be with each other. Megumi telling Yuuji to “start by saving me” was such a significant moment in helping Yuuji continue moving forward and not isolate himself away from Megumi and the others. And, while killing Sukuna is considered to be the priority of the characters Yuuji has consistently been planning ways to save Megumi too, and arguably one of the only characters to push those plans too. The same can apply to Megumi too, with his soul drowning after possession, suppressed after seeing his sister and mentor die. At his lowest, I would love to see Yuuji and the others be there for him too. It wouldn’t fix anything that’s already happened, but it would be a start towards healing

#idk ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ of course it could just end up going completely tragic #or yuuji left after failing to save megumi but having to end sukuna #jjk spoilers #itafushi #fushiguro megumi #itadori yuuji #tagging this with their ship name since it technically involves them #jjk 143 #jjk 246 #saying all this but I don’t think Yuuji’s saving megumi plans will go smoothly at all #not just because the manga still has a year left at the least but bc sukuna is NOT being defeated that fast #infortunately I don’t think most of the adults will make it #I think most of the younger characters and new generation will survive #every now and then I have to make a mandatory post about yuuji and megumi’s impact and the story circling back to them saving each other #mypost

gojo and geto seem like the last people to be overly domestic but they take to it so easily it surprises everyone

#they're so dedicated and meticulous about your wedding they're planning and organizing every single aspect of it down to the napkins #especially the wedding dress they go to every single showing and tailoring without fail and refuse to miss it #you know just in that off chance that you might let them fool around with you in the dressing room #the two of them are just not available during the period of planning your wedding their phones are just . off. #you wake up and find the kitchen decorated with cake samples everywhere. they make it a party. #sorrynotsorry i think all men should act less like they're being chained down for life in marriage and more like they get to spend the rest #of their lives with the person/people they love #like you always expect the girl to be super excited about the wedding and the dress and everything #and the guy is like whatever you want no opinions on his side #but stsg are so invested in your wedding and honeymoon and designing your new home #aka geto has a very specific image in mind for the house #down to the type of furniture he wants he seems like a home digest type of guy tbh #they want everything to be perfect #ripmc is the one that does not care at all btw she's fine with a paperwork marriage truly #has never heard of the color fuchsia in her life #poly au

some of these men should never be allowed to be a husband or a father

#you mean to tell me that bitchass of a man not only failed to do the one thing sophie has been trying to that is to protect their girls #but also he couldn't even give her the divorce news directly #she had to know it from a news outlet #and then him and his pr team tried to turn it around on sophie and how she's a bad mother and “parties” a lot #when he selfishly blew away the future plans they made #i usually just avoid celeb gossip but this makes me SO MAD because how can you fail so badly and yet have no ounce of shame #sophie turner #tw joe jonas

I will no longer repress my interests

#sekwar's art #artists on tumblr #patapon #patapon oc #shiru #i drew this because of the realization that this year marks a decade of posting art online #from deviantart to tumblr and my failed attempts at newgrounds and instagram #10 years seems to be a theme for 2024 isn't it? #and on june 30 2024 that's the 10 year mark #now i'm not leaving on that day! i'll merely reflect on how far i've come #and if tumblr dies this year i have a backup plan thank god #anyway i think i'm at the point where i'm no longer afraid to post about patapon #i have a pretty tumultuous relationship with the fandom and the only way i could get over it is to just #make patapon art and post it on tumblr #so here we are #i had to scrap a few ocs of mine due to bad memories or because i just didn't like them anymore #now i have just ten left and we're building it up from there #if i get any more ideas that is... #also i'm trying a new art style! i never drew with coloured outlines before #so i'll mess around and see what sticks! #ok i'm going to bed

Mr. Sark has assumed control of your mother's operation— Please stop referring to her as my mother. Therefore, Ms. Derevko must know what he's looking for. // You were hired to kill me? Who hired you? Who put a contract on my life? Derevko. Irina Derevko.

#aliasedit #alias #multiamorymarch #sydney bristow #julian sark #kazu tamazaki #polyamships #polyamoryinfandoms #userthing #multiamory march #sark x sydney x tamazaki #sark x sydney #sydney x tamazaki #sstrio #myedit #unlocking some new levels of rare ships here. #okay so what if. irina's double didn't just hire tamazaki to kill sydney. #what if elena's plan involved the double pretending to be irina for an extended period of time and building a new criminal empire AS irina. #and what if eventually. the double and tamazaki started working together. #and what if right before dying she told him about the assignment she only trusted him with. to kill her daughter. #assuming that all this time he thought that he's working with the real irina. that she managed to convince him and everyone else. #managed to convince herself too. began to believe in the lie. began to think that she's the real irina. #and when tamazaki and sydney meet; she fails to kill him. he escapes but she can't forget about what he said. #and maybe they keep running into each other after that. and the more she learns about the irina that he knew the less sense all of it makes #and then there's only one last option left. one person who can help her to figure out the truth. #so now there are two men who claim to know her mother better than she does. but the thing is. they knew two different irinas. #that's the love triangle material of ALL TIME right there. #ideally i would want sydney and irina's clone to form some sort of a relationship in this verse too. #you heard about getting attached to the clone of your best friend; now get ready for getting attached to the clone of your mother.

Rewatching "Navidad" and noticing right now that contrary to what I remembered, Esteban wasn't the only one who wanted to celebrate a traditional Nochebuena in the palace with just their family. Francisco did too! This is the very first Navidad since their reunion and Shuriki's defeat. Esteban has been waiting 41 (!) years for this day, and he probably thought it would never come. It must have hurt so much when his wish for a traditional family Navidad was immediately shut down by Elena and Luisa and (albeit a bit more conflictedly by Isabel) or that Francisco's agreement with his idea was disregarded.

It's especially intriguing to me, because ordinarily, you would expect Esteban to be all in on the exciting new Navidad celebrations. He can be stuffy and traditional, sure, but he's also extravagant and loves grand, elaborate parties. In this case, however, he vastly prefers a quieter, more intimate Navidad than something new and elaborate and exciting. He doesn't want fireworks or or parades or massive parties; all he wants is simple quality time with the family he spent four decades longing to somehow see again.

To borrow a few lyrics from "Let Love Light the Way," Esteban needs "nothing more than those [he] adore[s]" over the holiday. And it must rankle him so much to receive the seeming confirmation that this isn't enough for the others-- and I feel it could lend itself to the inevitable conclusion that he himself isn't "enough" for the others.

Personally, I feel like Francisco's desire to have their quiet, private Nochebuena celebration comes from a slightly different place than Esteban's. He's naturally a more traditional, reserved person, so he would always prefer simple quality time with his family than a grand function. Additionally, he did not perceive any time passing during the past 41 years, as Esteban did. So this particular Navidad would have less strong of a meaning to him as it did to his grandson who was all alone for four decades. I also do not think he would be fully aware of what this end of the Dark Times means to his grandson. But unlike the others, Francisco does seem to be genuinely trying to understand what Esteban is thinking and feeling.

And even knowing that Francisco can and will never fully understand, Esteban must have felt a little tiny spark of recognition and validation when Francisco too wanted to resume their regular Navidad traditions. These--and by extension, Esteban himself--may not have been "good enough" for Luisa or Elena. But for Francisco, the traditions were more than merely "good enough," they were his first choice.

#elena of avalor #esteban flores #chancellor esteban #francisco flores #i've thought a lot before about the family's microagressions toward esteban in s1 #mainly focused on this ep but also the two family vacation episodes that he doesn't appear in #but this ep hit different this time since i had forgotten/hadn't noticed #that francisco actually agreed with esteban's navidad plans #someone noticed; someone cared; someone wanted the same thing as esteban #even if the combined contrary force of the flores women prevented this wish from coming to fruitation #at least francisco and esteban get their way on the next navidad #'craig gerber please consider esteban's backstory and feelings even in funky little filler episodes' challenge #(failed yet again) #eoa salt #i mean tbf elena's and luisa's desire for something new does make sense too when you think about it #it's also the first navidad without elena's parents so a traditional navidad might have been too painful for them #but ya know what they should've done? talk this through as a family #let esteban (and francisco) talk about *why* the traditional navidad is so important to them #and then have elena and luisa explain *why* they need something different this year #if this family actually communicated; they might have come to a better compromise #like accepting christina's invite (as the first one offered) #and then coming back a little early from it and spending the rest of nochebuena with just the 5 of them doing their navidad traditions #but no; elena and luisa just decided what they were gonna do without asking for real input #and when francisco tries to question it; luisa is like 'why would you even question this? this new idea is *obviously* the better option.' #and nobody even cares a little about what esteban thinks

tired girl hours i’m just ranting bcos i don’t have enough time to cry

#tw rant #studying med is no joke. ik it was gonna be a commitment n that it wasnt gonna be easy n i thought i was prepared but im not #its my passion. i love what im studying and ive dedicated myself to this path but i just. its so hard n i just want to cry. everyday feels #so tiring. morning to night classes. when i get home i have to read 4 chapters MINIMUM n the books are so thick + exams almost everyday #i feel worse knowing there’s this 1 girl in my friend group that cant decide whether she likes me or not. one moment shes complimenting me #n asking where i get my outfits or my nails done or my earrings or whatever then praising me that i probably study the least out of everyone #yet still reach high student rankings but its not that im lazy im just so exhausted n its hard to have motivation... lowkey envy how my #friends study minimum 4 hours a day. we’re all tired n sleep deprived. even taking 30mins to eat makes me feel guilty. cant even watch 1 ep #of an anime bcos ill be thinking about the amount of work to do. and i have sm plans. i wanna be more active and have a healthier lifestyle #but i cant find it in me to wake up every 5am to go to the gym when i just wanna get as much sleep when im lucky to finish my studies today #i also dont see my bestest friends everyday anymore. some of us move to diff unis or some in diff majors. i just miss them so bad it hurts #and i miss the girl i used to be when i still had time and energy to indulge in my hobbies. i miss playing genshin and writing fics #just when i got back to writing and enjoyed it LOVED IT i had to go back to uni. i feel terribly lonely even when im always with people #im afraid ill completely lose grasp of the little things that make me happy bcos the weight of my responsibilities are heavier #im afraid ill be too focused on success again like i was when i was 17 and forget that its okay to relax too but idk #and i wanna meet more people make more friends have new experiences. i wanna feel alive again. and theres sm i wanna talk to or get to know #but im so afraid of people hurting me or disappointing me or people getting to know me only for the friendships to fail or we’ll dislike eac #h other. i wanna date and fall in love again and experience the romance my peers have. i wanna have someone to call my own person but the fe #ar of having someone only to lose them someday scares the hell outta me. im not ready for another heartbreak so i isolate myself and watch #people from afar. uni gives me sm freedom to do everything else and form my own identity but i dont wanna be Perceived. I wanna be heard and #seen n connect with people. but w my curreny state idt i can handle being vulnerable with others. it feels so lonely that the things i want #are out of my rrach but idt i can manage my time to meet new people and make new memories. i console myself by shopping a lot and going to #spas to relax yet i still find it hard to sleep. im afraid im wasting my time. im not as brave as i used to be. im not as efficient as i was #i get older and more tired and while i never questioned if studying med was the path i want i do question what will happen next #“is this all im ever going to be?” im good at what i do but day by day i lose sight of tje girl who knew how to laugh n smile. ik what makes #me happy but i rarely smile genuinely anymore. im so tired and want to sleep for a long time but i dont wanna fail. i dont wanna be NOT good #but it makes me cry when i know i can do many great things but i dont feel loved. people compliment me but dont approach me bcos they say im #intimidating or that im too quiet in class. i wish i could tell them i wanna join their parties too or i wanna meet their friends n hangout #but what if it doesnt work out? what if i wasted my time getting to know someone id eventually regret? what if im the disappointing one? #the days are getting shorter but it always feels like a long day. im ashamed to admit i want someone to hold me yet refuse to have anyone

Adhd will be like “you’re not dyslexic, you just don’t read the whole word. Good luck with math you dumb fuck”

#emma posts #there is more to dyscalcula and having trouble remembering how to spell long words #but these sure aren’t helping #me. learning Norwegian. reading the sentences and or putting words together to make one ‘I’m so fucking good at l this’d’ #okay. now spell the word for ‘difficult’ #me crying on the floor because I know it. I can read and hear it. but the letters blend together in my mind #it’s bad enough trying to do this with English. which is my FIRST LANGUAGE #but then it’s like ‘spell complicated words you are learning in another language’ and i feel like smashing my head on the carpet #I can’t speak it for the life of me though. which is actually getting frustrating #without an actual person to explain how to pronounce the words I’m failing so badly #but the primary reason I’ve been learning since April is to read it anyway #and listening is good too. harder though #I’m going to be so fucked up when I start taking Swedish lessons #the word means the same thing and also sounds almost the same (to an English speaker) #BUT THEY SPELL IT VERY DIFFERENTLY! #and with whole new letters #I’m going to write the Norwegian spelling and fail #I will admit that my plan to learn Norwegian first has been working otherwise though #them using fewer unfamiliar characters and being slightly more similar to English really is making it easier to learn #than Swedish first would be. maybe I’m just biased because I’m doing decently at Norwegian #but now when I learn a Swedish word it feels easier because i have two Germanic languages to compare the words to #and one of those languages is even another Nordic language! I dread finding Icelandic lessons though. but it will probably be several years #before I even attempt that! I am doing this because I want to be able to read old family records and objects but learning about #the linguistics of the language family both are in has been super fun and made it actually easier to learn Norwegian! #Spanish is the other language I want to learn but I’ve been putting it off #because it’s more for day to day utility and I can’t fixate on it the same way. I’m terrible at concentrating on it #plus. I’ve already had four Spanish classes so I figure I’ll at least have something to start from! I think I even kept my highschool notes #it’s been really frustrating figuring out which ‘the’ to use. having everything be masculine or feminine has probably been my biggest issue #when making sentences in it. also having had teachers from totally different dialects has been hard in the past #Mexican Spanish can be very diffident from the South American one my highschool teacher taught

#some days I truely miss forums #there are so many ways to help new users get used to the site #tutorials as part of the creation process #having all new users autpmatically follow a 'tumblr tips' blog #an email with helpful links #making the tutorial in help easier to find #but making this site just like all the (failing) others is not the best plan

As someone who grew up with a physically abusive father with no possibility of my mother taking full custody of me , and who relied on religion as a comfort including the fact that my mom's step-brother was a vicar and I loved him almost like an actual dad ; I see your character interpretation of O'Brien as an absolute win

Well , he's secretly evil but still , you get it

Sorry if sharing personal experiences like this bothers you

It's okay to share /gen

I'm so sorry you went through that and I really hope that you're doing better now. I'm glad you enjoy my interpretation of O'Brien, but I also hope that you're okay.

#hail true body au #mustang answers! #tw: abuse #tagging just in case #i think it's interesting to call o'brien evil as i kind of see him as morally grey #there's parts and glimpses of the genuine person hidden beneath all those lies and fabrications #and he (lucifer) feels that he's been driven into taking this approach by his father #so it's a matter of not wanting to do it necessarily but *having* to #to make some sort of statement to his father. to actually be heard and acknowledged for the first time in thousands of years #he is driven by the harsh hand he was dealt and every other approach failed #so he's focused on this new plan. and he doesn't intend to fail

we are winning at levels never before thought possible it seems, after making the wrong choice of becoming an ada wong fan & having to subsist off the crumbs of characterization given to me in in-game files, supplemental material & scant lines of dialog it seems capcom is truly going to give me everything i have ever wanted :

probably giving ada the best DLC in the franchise, a meaningful relationship with a character that isn't leon that seems to take precedent in her story over her few chance encounters with leon in RE4R ( i have a feeling her & luis' history gives their dynamic far more meaning than his little rollercoaster ride with leon ), cool sci-fi contacts replacing the glasses she never really used in the original, integrating her grapple hook in her combat when it was sadly only ever used for traversal, actual content specifically designed for her campaign & not just reused arenas from the main game ( some of these are from the original carried over to ada but i think her performing the coolest thing leon does in the original, dodging the lasers, is sick ), finally positioning wesker as an antagonist in ada's story directly rather than him hanging over her like a school headmaster trying to play mindgames .

it's honestly so personally rewarding to see capcom go to such lengths for a character they have otherwise neglected, even in a game like re6 where she carries the emotional core of the story ( in specific her developing relationship with carla as she learns she is more than just some lab-made doppelganger, which was sadly undercooked - like most of the game, despite the explosions )

#* file // : OOC — ( 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐏𝐎𝐒𝐓𝐄𝐑'𝐒 𝐂𝐑𝐔𝐒𝐀𝐃𝐄 . ) #sorry i couldn't join the hype the trailer dropped while i was at work but as always #winning. winning. winning. i am ALWAYS winning #please have her smoke luis' last cigarette or just share a smoke with him as they formulate their plan #though another element i will retain from the original is her relationship with krauser + his involvement with wesker #like it's more fitting for leon to be his killer but i need krauser to fail so hard at retrieving the sample wesker sends ada in #& also the revelation that the village/castle/cult itself is a mask for a military operation run by a scientist using the plaga's control #for world domination #saddler being a zealot just doesn't quite make as much sense once you reach the island & see their military/laboratory equipment #these aren't the designs of a man who is 100% getting high off his own supply #i'll hold off on wesker's characterization since we have very little to go off of but i do always prefer richard waugh's performance #over all others #there is definitely a nice mustache twirling bond villain-type angle that does fit better in the OG's self-aware american action movie #that wouldn't be out of place here since it's rather true to the character #i don't mind his new voice but it's definitely a little more flat #also i miss his gay little turtleneck #i'm happy ada has hers but where is his

everyone is always distancing themselves from me and i cant help but feel like im just deeply pathetic
