#or just kept an eye on her

[azurecanary]

Me, watching Siege of Mandalore:

And this is why you don't just fucking let the traumatised 16 year old wander the seedy underworld of Coruscant, lest she meet terrorists who will use her trauma for their own gain. It's almost as if she had a legal guardian, ANAKIN.

#i mean at the very least couldn't Padme have adopted her #or just kept an eye on her #like #who let this child just disappear off the face of the galaxy #only for her to show back up essentially in a ptsd spiral enabled by everyone around her #ahsoka tano #star wars tcw #anti anakin skywalker #anti bo katan

I really, really wish people who don't have the capacity to properly take care of animals would simply accept and acknowledge that about themselves. This isn't even a post of me trying to be mean or judge anyone, I'm sure most people go into getting an animal with good intentions, but intentions and actions are different. If you don't have the time and the space and the care an animal needs, the animal will suffer. The fleeting joy of having a kitten or puppy or anything else doesn't last forever and they aren't toys to be put down and forgotten once you've moved past the inital excitement. If you don't have the ability to properly care for an animal, just accept that and simply admire them from a distance.

#the amount of people i know who flippantly just. buy a random pet with no prior planning or thought #and like its not always outright neglect #you can technically feed and groom a pet get them flee treatments etc but if you lock it outside 24/7 and spend no actual time #like why do you have that animal? #you should not have that aninal #if you have too much in your life to adequately care for one its vetter for YOU and for the animal to not have one #like this little cat is so sweet #actually the sweetest cat ive ever known and my cat tigs has always been a massive sweety already #so its saying something that shes been even sweeter #i mean i brushed her teeth and got matted fur off her and cleaned her eyes and she NEVER bit or scratched me once #shes so quiet and sweet #but the people across the road clearly just left her outside to her own devices her whole life #seemingly no vet checks. didnt feed her properly and i sometimes wonder if at all bc their next door neighbour was feeding her apparently #and he has no pets!! even he knew that shit was wrong #and now shes so sickly and small and malnourished and her teeth are rotting out of her head #and its just like ???? #why have her #you could have realized you werent really the type for pets and given her to a shelter #and she would have been adopted 100% #but they kept her all this time but also not really bc its not like she was kept properly at all #its sad she didnt come over here sooner #i wish id had since she was a baby or even a year ago #bc then maybe i could have helped her more #its just so unnecessary. Animals are a privilege not a right. #and again like. go visit your cousin or uncle or sister or friends pet in that case #you might not have the time or ability but you could still enjoy animals wothout directly having one

i unironically hope Eris stays in her Hive form at least physically bc im already loving how both her & Immaru are pointing out Ikora's (and humanity's) inherent dehumanization of the Hive.

Eris being all "If this form does not leave will you still view me as a friend?"

Immaru when asked where the Experiment Subjects come from and responding with "Don't act like you care."

Honestly, it's so good. I really love the Eris stuff and some of these questions being posed. A lot of people react negatively to Eris doing this, forgetting that Eris has already been part-Hive for a long time. She was just hiding it behind the eye cover.

Technically, nothing inherently changed about Eris; she just embraced that part of her. And that's super important for her arc I think because she's been on a journey of accepting her trauma and her losses for a very long time. We helped her face her fears and traumas in Shadowkeep and she came out of it victorious. And the story never treated it as her traumas being gone; she still has them, but she has the means to tackle them and handle them and live with them. Since we helped her, she became more open and more involved with what we do to save our home, even if it meant tackling dangerous things.

And the thing is, now that her traumas cannot be exploited by Darkness anymore, she's capable of involving herself in these things, knowing that she has friends to fall back to and a support system and better mental fortitude. We've seen it through her endurance beneath the Pyramid on Io, and her grasp of stasis, and her dealing with the Crown of Sorrow and egregore and the Lunar Pyramid nightmares. And now with her embracing her Hive self. It doesn't change anything about her, but people prefer when she hides it so they don't have to see it. And she knows it (Sororicide lore book, page 1):

It's a perfect example of how we inherently view the Hive as untrustworthy. Obviously, there are good reasons for it! The Hive have caused immense pain and trauma to pretty much everyone in the universe, Eris included. It must take an incredible strength of character to embrace the fact that you're physically half-Hive, creatures that traumatised you in the first place. No one else has dealt with anything similar so naturally they're afraid for Eris. But I believe in her strength. And so does Drifter and Drifter is never wrong:

He'd read the reports. He saw the theories on VanNet. He didn't trust them. He trusted her.

There's a cutscene that people skip and can cause people not to see it, I recommend replaying the thing on a different character or seeing it online, but it shows Eris taking off her bandage in front of us:

It's such a powerful image to me. A symbol of her taking off her mask. Not pretending to be the same as us anymore. Because she isn't! The Hive are a part of her and have been for centuries. And she's always been in control. Our mistrust has always hurt her, but before this, we could act with pity towards her. Now that she's fully in Hive form, people's perception of her changed, for really no good reason other than prejudice. She is still Eris.

I definitely think that eventually we will have to reconcile with the idea of the Hive not being inherently evil in totality as a whole group of people. Obviously this is going to be difficult, especially when their leaders act the way they do, but eventually I do believe we will have to accept some of them, even if it's only Eris for a start.

#destiny 2 #destiny 2 spoilers #season of the witch #season of the witch spoilers #eris #immaru #hive #ask #long post #there's just something about like. eris embracing her full self that's so incredibly powerful to me #and that the way we tolerated her before was steeped in the whole. 'as long as you're sufficiently similar to us you're fine' vibe #but she isn't. fundamentally she has been changed to her core and she kept it hidden #we could only see the light of her third eye and even that made people suspicious of her just based on her physical appearance #but beneath that bandage has always been Hive eyes #the hive killed her and the hive saved her. i can't even begin to imagine what kind of complex emotions that would bring her

How do you think Junko manipulated the other sdr2 survivors besides Hiko? Kazu, Sonia and Akane?

Kazuichi: lots of praise and conditional affection (now that you're addicted to being my favourite little puppy, sure would be sad if you did something to make me and my friends mad and not like you anymore. Because I could make sure no one ever wants to be around you again :( build me a death machine pretty please?)

Sonia: aren't you tired of being nice? Dont you want to go apeshit? (aren't you tired of doing only what other people expect of you? You're barely your own person. Go on, try being a little bad for once! A little bad escalates into being immensely selfish, and eventually it's too late to go back)

Akane: a little harder, but she's very gullible and easy to trick into doing things, and has a LOT of trauma to tap into (maybe something along the lines of, "the world is a shitty place and no one ever helped you when you needed it, right? Only way to be safe from that is to be not only strong, but scary. Show them they can't mess with you! KILL")

#Not an art #Talky talky #That said I think they all affected each other too. Kaz wanted to be near sonia and Junko helped him achieve that #Nekomaru wanted to keep an eye on Akane after learning all the things that happened to her and she felt like she needed to prove herself- #-to him since he's stronger than her so she kept trying harder #Peko is self explanatory and Fuyuhiko felt more able to go off the deep end knowing he had unconditional support in her #Etc etc. It was a group effort Junko just pulled some strings and kicked stuff into motion

Nawhhhhhh- y’all tell me why my Mexican Mama be roasting RoboDad over here. 💀💀💀

I was gonna give her a long speech about how amazing and lovable Nick Valentine is, but before I could she just went right back to roasting him. (Affectionately though, she does like him. Just thinks he’s kinda ugly)

Feito means “little ugly”

Now I have to basically summarize this man’s entire lore in the most simplistic way possible to make her understand this unyielding love the Fallout community has for Nick.

Plz send help.

#How do I tell the story of Nick Valentine and Fallout in general to a Mexican mother who only plays Mario Bros???? #Not even I know????? #At the very least she calls Nick a man and not a robot. Poor lady is trying to understand my hobbies to no avail. #She watched me play the intro of Fallout 4. But after awhile she got bored of me just looting the Commonwealth. #So after that she only saw snippets of my gameplay. #And she kept noting that I’m always with Nick and that he looks like he’s seen better days. #El Feito is now his name in her eyes. I’m sorry Nick. I laughed too hard now she won’t stop calling him that. #fallout #fallout 4 #fo4 #nick valentine #fallout memes #fallout screenshots

THE CINEMATICS OF THIS. 

In that first frame? With the three streams of water coming down in front of the camera?

Almost making another set of bars - like we were just talking about?

How the Syaorans and this bubble of time and the universe has been trapped as they circle this moment backwards and forwards until now, when this event finally happened properly? 

How this confrontation has been locked in for a long time? 

How Sakura herself has been frozen in this temporal prison the entire time? 

How there are three streams of water, and this is the third confrontation between the Syaorans? 

And this is where it all ends!

#ONE WAY OR ANOTHER #Also three streams for the three Syaorans #Three drops of blood smeared across Syaoran’s cheek #And they have three of their original eyes here on display too #Liveblogging the reservoir chronicle #Tsubasa #Vol 207 #Syaoran #Lava Lamp Guy #Syaoran Vs Syaoran #OH and how they’re here alone together #Fighting about Sakura but she’s nowhere to be seen #But they’re SURROUNDED by water on every side #The water that loved Sakura so much it tried to save her just like Lava Lamp #That love for Sakura that has framed every single aspect of their lives #And surrounds them here more than anything else #That love for Sakura has has kept them trapped into this fate from the very start

I think…I’m going to cry.

I’m reading The Ruby’s Curse by Alex Kingston.

And River says: I don’t have a home. I just have places where I live.

Me: Oh. Oh…

But later, in a moment of crisis, she circles back to this thought, and her and 13’s minds link for just a moment.

And River realizes: My home was not a place, but a person.

Me:

#doctor who #river song #the Ruby’s curse #if you want to know how their minds link you have to read the book #this book is has so many twists and turns and I understand now one it’s considered to be one of the best river song stories #it’s written by Alex so ofc it would do her character justice but WOW…just WOW #and when I say I think I���m abt to cry I mean I have tears it my eyes #it just hit me bc she kept saying I don’t have a home #and then she felt the doctor’s mind touch hers and she went Oh YOURE my home #😭😭😭 #thirteenth doctor #thirteenriver #doctorriver #otp: please don't #can’t believe I’m just now learning abt this book #it came out two years ago #text #personal

the funny thing about eye contact for me is that with some people it's super easy and normal, but 90% of the time I just don't even think of doing eye contact? and it's not about how much I like people, either—I don't do eye contact with my immediate family members very much, and I like them a lot and am very comfortable with them. It just takes up so much brain space!!

#People who inexplicably somehow are people I don't have to expend mental energy on eye contact with: #my irl friend Purple 50% of the time (the other 50% I'm super awkward about it for some reason??) #Nightwing @called-kept (I think?? I think I'm remembering that right?? or maybe I'm just remembering how comfortable I was with her) #Arrow of Arrow-and-Batty (again: why??? why was it so easy to do eye contact with Arrow??? what the heck!) #also at work I switch on Work Mode and 70% of the time that means I do more eye contact but that's not the Same #Robin speaks

Pokeshipping Week 2023

Day 5: Return of Togetic

Surprise~!

Wanted to try at foreshortening again, though I'm not sure if the angle is 100% correct. Eh, whatevs. 🤷‍♀️

I don't know whether I like the idea of Togetic just randomly showing up on its own and collaborating with Ash to surprise Misty, or if Ash basically came up with the idea of the reunion on his own more. Either way, what's immediately to follow is a bunch of happy tears and a lot more hugs!

I love Misty and Togetic's relationship, so sweet~❤❤

wrote a long thing about people not talking about rose's actions being spurred on originally by grief and how her grief was used to manipulate her until she turnt it to anger—the equivalent of a bandaid over a gaping wound, surviving but not living. but then realized. lol. who cares. (i do i care sooo much but. i am so shy. 👍)

#JUST THINKING ABOUT ROSE.... #literally insane how tragic character lovers for dc comics never talk about her when shes so. and so. and ough. #the tragedy of losing her mother and the happy life they had. losing the titans and her adopted family. having slade as a father. #her grief that slade set up to manipulate her is what breaks her to finally take his sword and kill wade. #she wears the mask of her mother's murderer bc all she wants is a family all she wants is love but this is the closest version she can have #ALSO having the factor of how much she did. it was her own hand that stabbed out her eye in her desperation to be like slade. #to be like the only person she still has. to earn his approval and love. shes ruled by that fear and desperation which allowed slade to #control her because of the traumatizing losses she kept going through. the self shame and anger and disgust??? #feeling insane thinking about her this is incoherent goodnight <3 #ransom note

Seeing as ghost are canon in danganronpa, how do you feel about Junko ghost AUs where she haunts the remnants or first game survivors?

It is almost literally my favourite narrative take (tight behind found family / they love each other) I am SO about it you have no idea. It's the tastiest I go nuts

#I yell and think loudly about Junko physically haunting the ppl who took her body parts so much and often #Fuyuhiko sees someone right out of the corner of his eye that's supposed to be blind #Even after Nagito gets a cool robot hand sometimes it acts against his will for a second and it feels like .... #Mikan is such a whoof idk if I can even go there. But she might have it worst of all #Like while everyone is haunted they get it the worst #Maybe it's because of them that the entire island is haunted. Bc they kept her alive in a way that cant be undone #If they took in even a little bit of her cells or blood or DNA. Its irreversible and shes just There Now. #Can u imagine??? Ur on an abandoned island or a ship and you dont have the option of leaving. And there is a ghost #Everyone knows it but talking about these things gives them power you know #Maybe that's partially why even the antisocial or private people start sleeping with others in the room #You'd rather wake up to your loudly snoring friend than to a vague silhouette that *might* be someone sitting on the corner of your bed #Sorry I lose it when ppl start to talk horror I dont know what I'm writing #I have an entire fanfic in my head that I might get out sometimes about The Haunting Of Jabberwock Island
