“Zach,” I said as I lay there. “Where did you go? When you were looking for me?” I shifted in his arms, looked into his eyes. “Crazy.” His voice was a whisper against my skin. “I went crazy.”
This was a request,, and it actually made me so nostalgic and with an ich to draw Norman. Honestly, I dig Dig Doc Ock but mainly his older look in Spiderman NWH.
if anything i find it even more tragic that Wyll doesn't get that resolution that you can find with some of the other characters. Sure, you can break him out of his pact with Mizora, but he... never understands that he was a victim of both his Mizora's manipulation and his father's neglect.
He was still a very much neglected seventeen year old boy who was cast out by the one person he idolized and the only family he ever had.
The tav never gets a moment to go 'hey your dad is actually a piece of shit' nor 'hey your dad also neglected you your whole life' that actually has a whole impact on him. Wyll spends the whole game mentioning numerous occasions where his father would scold him for being a child. he mentions having to repeat balduran's pledge every single day by his father's request. Ulder even admits to drifting from Wyll from the day he was born.
Yet Wyll idolized him and saw him as if he was the very sun because he had no one else. He puts his own father on a pedestal and doesn't even entertain the idea that maybe his father isnt as great as he sees him to be. he doesn't get a moment where he can realize that he is worthy and great without needing to be the blade of avernus/frontiers nor as the archduke's son.... he can just be Wyll and that's enough- even if it wasn't enough for Ulder.
It's a tragedy that, whether due to Larian's mistreatment to his character or crunch, that Wyll doesn't get to see his father as someone who hurt him too.
"there didn't seem to be a wolverine/morph fandom before X-Men 97 came out, surely that means there wasn't any romantic subtext in TAS, I'm good to start writing a pre-relationship fic set during 97 before I've finished my rewatch," I said
the "this wretched war" line makes me sick to my stomach like genuinely ill, I'm glad you understand.
WOAUGH because like the captain clings to the war so much. He uses it as a source of pride and he can go on and on about guns and tanks, but deep down he fucking hates it. He’s a sensitive man who wants nothing more than a sense of purpose, if that comes from international conflict, so be it. The war is a double edged sword for him, it gives him stability and purpose and allows him to be respected (somewhat) by others. But on the other hand it’s war and it fucking sucks and it’s stressful and he’s pretending to be something he’s not and he wants to be home for christmas and his love is on the frontline and he’s constantly wondering whether or not he is even alive.
To me “this wretched war” is more than just ‘aww he misses havers :(’ (though of course, that is enough to make me feral) to me it’s the fact that the captain has tied his entire identity to something that he despises, (the inherent self hatred the captain has is something that can be sooo personal) but he did it anyways because it’s the only thing that brought him and havers together
I’m… I’m so sorry for this, I didn’t realize how much I felt about that line until I started typing 😭

i'm finally getting back on track and making some progress in chapter 5, but i decided that's not as fun to show you as something silly, and quickly typed a tiny bit into the other (iykyk) kwgm wip
Two things go through Yagami’s mind during that moment. The first is, when did Kuwana start to feel this comfortable in Yagami’s house?
And the second: this is really happening, isn’t it?
“I need you to help me,” Kuwana says, his voice articulate and calm. “Sit up and raise your arms.”
It is. It is really happening. Yagami sits there stunned until he hears Kuwana chuckle, “Now don’t be shy. Like it’s anything that I haven’t seen before.”
Yagami feels awful and pissed at his own embarrassment. Sadly, there’s nothing he can do about this aside from listening to Kuwana’s orders. He raises his arms, and Kuwana frees him from his sweaty T-shirt.
Completely mortified, Yagami realizes it is not the one that he fell asleep in. And while he's fully aware that this is a different kind of situation and means absolutely nothing, but the thought of Kuwana undressing him when he wasn’t fully awake and was entirely at his mercy… Well, that is definitely something he isn’t supposed to fixate on right now, that’s for sure.
when staged said “and she’s kind” and “cause i’m a bit more discombobulated” and “i don’t want it to end” and “you always made me look good” and “but if we answer the door it’s over” “and isn’t that thrilling!” and “knock knock” “come in”
