I lost my draft and I forgot what I wanted them to talk about but I remember it's something about unresolved guilt

and an excuse to draw Sebastian

#demiart #bg3 tav #bg3 astarion #bg3 sebastian #astarion x tav #but not much about them #tav:sorn #it's... it's 6 am #i may have missed the frills on Sebastian's collar but im done so nvm next time it is #he has little lines but his character stood out a lot to me #and I just think Sorn would kinda sort of like him #the thing about being locked up for a long time #may continue if I can recall whats in my draft

[donnieluvsthings]

also okay i havent seen EVERY version of tmnt but theres usually a theme for the leo-raph arguments, so i think its safe to say that once again rise does a classic tmnt thing but completely in its own way. like ah yes leo and raph arguing while donnie and mikey eavesdrop! except donnie and mikey actually try to interfere when leo and raph start fighting.

and theyre not arguing over who would be the better leader, its not “angsty lone wolf nightwatcher” raph vs “overbearing and arrogant but with repressed insecurities” leo. its “older brother whos scared bc hes under lots of pressure to protect his family and takes it very seriously” raph vs “too-chill-too-cocky doesnt really listen to his team” leo. just. its the same thing TECHNICALLY but rise does it all so that its basically new and i love it so much

#also this isnt me bashing those other versions bc if not for them we wouldnt have gotten rise and theyre all good in their own right #i just like how rise does its own thing and it turns out so good #rise does this for like everything but this was smth that stood out bc. literally every raph-leo iteration has the same fight usually #drafted this at 3:50am im so! normal! #donnie speaks #rottmnt #rottmnt movie spoilers #rottmnt spoilers #apologies for the nightwatcher reference 07 is burned into my brain LMAO #ALSO i appreciate how they didnt do the whole classic blue character ‘repressed insecurities’ thing with leo #not that i dont think it would work for his character and they also probably didnt have enough time. but i like a leo #who genuinely IS confident in himself & his abilites but just needs to learn how to merge those abilities w his bros so they work as a team

“why do i miss gem and the scotts suddenly theyre barely even real”

LITERALLY!! like. that team was held together with scott tape and the sheer force of gem’s personality. i don’t think scott and impulse ever actually even talked the entire time. it only worked because for the first time scott was faced with someone who was bossier than he was. they were awesome i should rewatch secret life

they were actually so fucking funny. All three of them promising to remain loyal and stick together until the very end (bc together they can win this!!) only for gem to hunt scott for sport an episode later was literally so based… their dynamic will always be funnier in my head i think but god it was awesome

#i have actual thoughts on them but i already wrote my gem scott analysis post #I havent talked about the one scene between them i think about semi frequently— #where gem dies for the first time and scott genuinely tries to cheer her up #(rare for him. he usually just goes anywhere from “you deserved that” to “thats rough buddy” where he talks to the person he’s trying to— #console like theyre a lost pet. this isnt a diss btw i think its really funny when he does this. He did it to mog on sos recently) #it stood out to me is all and i think a lot of it has to do with him actually being there + seeing gem as an actually competent player #it was also the first time she’d died Ever. Which changes things i think #But I’d need to rewatch it and like. Actually break it down… it was cute though #Following this up with the original point: they were barely real. they were barely real. Dont let my insanity convince anyone otherwise #asks

One thing I’ve learned through my years of consuming live theatre and bootlegs of live theatre is that you can almost always tell when someone used to be a Newsie.

They always have this like indescribable quality about how they move even compared to other incredibly well trained dancers. I think it’s just because Newsies is such an insane, other level caliber of dance that it just brings them to another quality of movement.

I don’t know how to describe it. I just know that whenever I watch something the Newsie always stands out.

#thoughts brought to you by the obc bootleg of mean girls #there’s just a different level of movement from ben cook #and maybe that’s just because it’s ben cook #but also demarius copes was also a newsie and it’s just like a different level idk #and when i saw hamilton for the first time the person who stood out was thayne jasperson aka a former newsie #they just hold like a different level of power as dancers #even in the hamilton proshot thayne jasperson and ephraim sykes are the ones who stand out to me because they just move different #and when i saw the mean girls tour sky flaherty and iain young stood out as dancers #it’s just something about those damn newsies #newsies bway #newsies live #newsies broadway #newsies on broadway #newsies the musical #ben tyler cook #thayne jasperson #demarius copes #iain young #sky flaherty #ephraim sykes

To become an EMT was fairly intense training. The class only lasted a semester, but it was eight hours of class per week with nearly two thousand page textbooks, hours upon hours of clinicals, and the overarching dread that people would be relying on you for life and death situations when you passed.

To become a paramedic was even harder. A two year program heavy in pharmacology and cardiac rhythm interpretation, with so many new skills piled on that it was overwhelming most of the time.

To Hyrule it was all an adventure and an honor, though, one he readily accepted.

He hadn't been expecting to use such esteemed training to be combing a cow pasture in the middle of the night, though.

"This is your fault, by the way," Aurora grumbled. "I'm never holding over for a shift with you again."

"How is this my fault?" Hyrule questioned before yelping and jumping out of the way of what could have been a disastrous footstep into a pile of unsavoriness.

"Yesterday was a calm shift," Aurora pointed out as she also jumped around some cow chips. "Eleven calls in twenty-four hours. Nobody was dying and nobody was obnoxious. Today, we ran twenty-one calls, of which two were codes, one was a drunk person cussing everyone out except for the one person he thought was an angel, a person who was convinced their banana was possessed, and this."

"Somebody drove off the road and crashed through a wooden fence into the pasture and it's my fault?" Hyrule parsed out, jumping slightly when he walked unwittingly into a wet nose. The cow stared at him unblinkingly, munching aimlessly on whatever she'd grazed. "Excuse me," he huffed, ducking around her.

"The patient has to be long gone," Aurora sighed. "I'm willing to bet they were drunk and ran as soon as this happened. They wouldn't want a run-in with PD."

"Nobody wants a run-in with Impa," Hyrule snickered.

Despite tearing through a wooden fence, the car actually hadn't sustained too much. It was likely as Aurora suspected, though - a drunk driver who was uninjured enough to recognize Impa would chew them out and arrest them, and therefore opted for fleeing the scene.

"At least the cows weren't hurt," Aurora muttered, watching one stare at her. "We're definitely attracting a crowd, though."

As his partner chuckled, Hyrule noticed that they had, in fact, attracted quite the crowd. It seemed like the entire herd had gathered at this point, all staring pointedly at the paramedics while the police continued to sweep the area.

"Uh... hi," Hyrule waved awkwardly, and Aurora burst out laughing.

Turning, Hyrule watched his step carefully, avoiding both holes and manure, before he rammed unceremoniously into something, gasping and falling backwards into his partner.

"Rulie!" Aurora yelped as she caught him. "Are you okay?"

Hyrule grumbled, regaining his balance, his heart racing from embarrassment, and then he stared at what he'd crashed into.

The fence. He'd just... walked head first into the broken fence.

Hyrule snorted. Then he fell into hysterics, his gut aching from laughing so hard. Aurora stared at him a moment and then joined in.

"Keep this up and you'll be the patient," Aurora snorted, gasping for air. She turned to Impa. "Impa, I'm taking my partner home before he kills himself!"

Their serious friend shot them a look, taking in the sight of Hyrule, who was now sporting a small cut on his forehead from the splintered wood, though it clearly wasn't bothering him as he was wheezing and bent over.

"I don't even want to know," she sighed heavily. "The driver's long since fled the scene. You two can go in service."

Hyrule let Aurora guide him as both stumbled on to the road, still laughing loudly.

Two years of training for life-and-death emergencies only for Hyrule to create his own emergencies while aimlessly wandering a cow pasture. He supposed his instructors had been right when they'd mentioned one couldn't make up half the stuff they dealt with at work.

BEEN DOWN THIS ROAD BEFORE,

ALREADY KNOW THIS STORY.

#sonic the hedgehog #shadow the hedgehog #silver the hedgehog #explanation!! in tags. since i don't think my composition got my exact idea down #but this song is one of my fav sonic (as a character) themes. what it tells us about sonic. and this lyric especially stood out to me #we don't really know much of sonic's past (as of current game canon) or real feelings on most situations. to get them in character themes #like this is wonderful. and for so long i keep thinking about how like #i really truly think. when you really think abt it and consider them all as characters within canon #especiallyyyy the 1998-2000s games. sonic has more similarities to shadow and silver than what's been shown or what most have known #originally this was going to just have sonic and shadow but i always have to throw silver into things #but i wanted to potray a sort of sympathy from sonic as well as sense of understanding #being the hero of the whole world saving it many times and fighting insane things as a 15 year old little animal's gotta be a lot #& anyway i like to take baby game seriously just a little bit

[sunkissedlouis]

the way louis was always smiling and so charming.. even if he was hurt by the sea urchin and was in pain.. he was always smiling :') :((

#i get why the boys were instantly so enamored bc of louis #his energy just pulls you in #feeling nostalgic as well #remembering watching and seeing louis for the first time and couldn't keep my eyes off of him #watching the unseen footage reminded me of how he stood out for me and all like :((((((( #ang seryoso ng iba tapos si lou :D HUHU CUTE CUTE NILA TALAGA HUHU

is everything terrible or is it just the damp of the first spring rain

#no but really. I adore this moment so much #because it’s eowyn’s whole problem and the problem of her circumstances in microcosm #she is alone and cold. the city has fallen silent. there’s no one there. there’s no one to balance out her view #there’s no one to stand next to her and see things for what they are #yes—painful dark difficult #but also. sometimes just in process #sometimes just hidden in shadow #sometimes just the curve of the valley #sometimes just the damp of the first spring rain!!!!!!!!!!! #you can’t see that truth on your own and if you try to be positive you tip into delusion #you can’t achieve balance on your own. and so just. #him stepping up to stand next to her. his hand going into hers. saying I do not believe this darkness will endure #it just rights the ship of her soul in a way that hasn’t happened yet #because no one has ever stood beside her #or maybe it’s a part of the righting of her soul—Theoden and Eomer both have their moments where they draw near her and around her #in a way they didn’t (couldn’t? didn’t?) before #but then he’s just the last piece. someone from outside. someone who sees her with such clear eyes. who loves her with such a hopeful heart #and all of her angst just washes away #sorry I’m just having a breakdown over here #Eowyn’s story kills me. I think about it all the time. I think about her isolation and her innocence and her bravery and her vulnerability #and her unsteadiness and her desire for glory and how pure and bright and vivid like flame she is and Faramir just being there to catch her #and let her be who she actually is. I JUST——— #lotr liveblogging

Now that I finally got to play TWST diasomnia chapter 1 myself, I'm gonna need everyone who said Malleus was a baby throwing a tantrum for no reason to pay me 2000 dollars each

#twst #twisted wonderland #yes it did take me until the second to last day of the new chapter event to finish book 6 what of it #in my defense i had no good leona&jamil cards for chapters 66 and 67‚ i'm glad i managed to do it at all. robe malleus carried the team <3 #anyways! i haven't seen this take in a while but i remember it popping up a lot earlier this year when we got diasomnia on the jp server #as a member of the malleus defense squad i can't bear all this slander and now i have proof it's baseless #his overblot is one of the most justified ones??? what do you mean no reason #He's already established to be constantly left out and lonely because of it #And now he gets hit with the triple whammy of 1) realizing his fellow students' mortality after book 6 #2) learning that his father figure is dying and in one week fucking off to fantasy china to live out his retirement without him #3) his best friend the MC telling him they found a way to un-isekai themself #Maybe he could have weathered one of those‚ but all three at the same time? #Poor guy stood no chance‚ those are hits straight into the trauma #Of course he's gonna have a breakdown! It's not his fault breakdowns in twisted wonderland come with a side of destructive berserking #And to be fair from what i've heard in spoilers all he did was put the whole school to sleep he didn't even destroy all that much #like yes putting everyone to sleep so they can live forever and never leave him is not a healthy reaction #but this is Unhealthy Reactions The School it's not like he's such an outlier in that #leave my boy alone 😭 #excuse my ranting i'm just insane about twisted wonderland and malleus specifically

enemies to lovers isn't "he's generally an unpleasant person to be around, he constantly puts other people down and disrespects/condescends/ostracizes them, he's cruel and a bully... but his one redeeming quality is that he looks attractive" like. bestie that's not a redemption arc!! or a redeeming quality!!! a person can and should control their behaviors, but how they look literally has no bearing on their worth as a person!

like... this trope is about an initial misunderstanding and miscommunication that leads to mild conflict and resentment of each other,but eventually they move past this rocky start by revealing to each other their humanity and good qualities, and communicating what happened the first time they met so that they can clear up that situation, and slowly becoming good friends who enjoy spending time with each other and eventually become really close, and the realization that one accidental mishap/slip in behavior/aashole mistake isn't what defines a person and sometimes your first interpretation of them is sometimes wrong!! an entire opinion of someone should be formed based on their behaviors, values, actions, and morals, and quality time spent with this person, not because they have nice cheekbones.

#and i can speak to this from experience #because i didn't outright hate this guy we just had very contradicting personalities and were polar opposites which is why we didn't #get along well when we first met #but then i realized how charming and sweet and kind and intelligent he was and i liked him so much for the same things #that I initially found as off putting and negative traits at first #and he had a similar experience with me and we found that our opposing personalities complemented each other #and THEN i noticed that he was literally so fine and had an amazing back and really nice eyes and a charming smile and good hair #he became one of my best friends first and the person i wanted to spend time with the most LONG BEFORE i ever found him physically appealin #or attractive at all #also this post is calling out middle school me because i read tlc and i wanted iko to have a love interest #and it was very heteronormative at the time too #and then the author literally didn't develop her or her love interest character AT ALL and designed them so poorly #and i didn't realize that this wasn't the correct way to do enemies to lovers #or that iko stood on her own as a character and kinney was completely unnecessary and so boring and bland aldjfkfkf #wait i might have to tag this #anti kiko #anti iko x kinney #the way I haven't thought about this book series in years akdjfkdmdl #enemies to lovers #tropes #anna speaks

dogs caught what i believed was some kind of black bird up until i whisked it away and realized it was a hawk or falcon chick? i had to relocate it 3 times because they kept finding it again before i finally plopped it down into our open shed which conveniently gives a little birdie plenty of hiding spots

but i was still worried about it possibly starving and it was unclear if the parents were near or not so i put down some water and leftover bird feed (even though i doubted it would probably eat it) and left it alone

checked up on it today and not only does it sound healthy, it looks like one of its parents is keeping an eye on the little guy 🙏

#it couldnt even peep anymore by the time i moved it for the last time so now that its nice and LOUD when it heard its parent fly in and out #i assume its getting fed and taken care of #i wasnt sure if i shouldve taken it to a wildlife center or not #its like? half grown i think? #and if its parents are taking care of it once it can fly im sure it'll be alright #i can pop in every few days i guess to see if its still screaming its little head off #or at least make sure my dogs dont get a hold of it anymore #poor guy was stubborn and got smacked around for a while before i eventually woke up and snatched it away #but man i wasnt sure if it was still there #i snooped around and didnt hear or see anything for a few minutes until i stood still for a bit #and saw another falcon pop in; see me; and flew right back out #but after it did that the chick started to scream lol #ur fine little buddy #oughhgh ok i stayed up way past my bedtime just to wait to go check on it #mimis time...
