#the ending will be depressing though

[lagosbratzdoll]

Since everyone is getting a TV show, I wouldn’t say no to an animated show preferably by non-white people about the invasion of the First Men. 

It could start with Those Who Sing the Song of the Earth minding their business, nurturing the land, singing their songs, worshipping the old gods and having skirmishes with the giants until the First Men begin their incursion. 

It could show Those Who Sing the Song of the Earth welcoming the First Men until they start cutting the weirwood trees. The different approaches TWSTSoTE takes to the invaders. Some want to teach them why they don’t cut the trees, and some want to kill them. The two factions argue, but the peaceful faction wins. TWSTSoTE tries to teach the First Men why they don’t cut the trees, but the First Men don’t understand or care. They continue to cut the trees. 

The First Men have caused extensive deforestation and displacement of TWSTSoTE from their resting places, resulting in the faction favouring a more violent approach to the invasion of the First Men winning over the remaining TWSTSoTE. In light of a shared foe, they decide to unite with the giants, as they believe that the enemy of their enemy is their ally. 

TWSTSoTE and the giants then turn to guerrilla warfare. They set traps for the First Men in the forests and use magic to harm as many as they can. TWSTSoTE hesitate to hurt the dogs but are fine with killing as many of the First Men as they can. They kill the First Men and dismantle their homes. They begin to regain some of the land that the First Men had originally taken from them.

At first, it seems that TWSTSoTE and the giants are winning, but the First Men can soon stem the tide as there are more of them than the old races and they have better weapons. The alliance of the old races becomes even more discouraged. Day and night, they get no rest from the First Men’s brutality. The First Men kill their babes and burn their resting places. 

TWSTSoTE have tried peace, and they have tried war. In their desperation to survive the bloody war, TWSTSoTE and the giants turned to the old gods. To the Isle of Faces, one of the last strongholds of weirwoods in Westeros, the greenseers summon TWSTSoTE and all the other old races. 

With the sacrifice of a thousand First Men to the old gods, the greenseers can shatter the Arm of Dorne. Stopping more First Men from invading Westeros, but it is too late. The First Men were too many and reproduced too fast.

They decide to form a truce.

The First Men agree to the truce because while TWSTSoTE cannot win in an all-out war against them, they can coax the land to bear no fruit, the rivers to dry and the animals to stay far away from the First Men’s settlements. TWSTSoTE agree to a truce because their children have only known war and violent displacement and they would like for them to rest. The old races feel pained, but after agreeing upon the truce, TWSTSoTE retreat to their forests and keep to themselves, and the giants venture as far north as they can stand.

The First Men and TWSTSoTE coexist in an unstable peace until the arrival of the Andals. 

#like i'd sacrifice david zaslav to the old gods to have this show made #there's so many black and brown writers who'd eat this concept up and if it's done well we're looking at least five seasons #book one: the invasion of the first men #book two: the truce #book three: the arrival of the andals #book four: the enemy of my enemy is my friend #book five: expatriation #the ending will be depressing though #if you're feeling crazy you could even lead into a show about the conquerors #like that'd eat so bad and since it's animated #the visuals would be insane #idk what to tag this as #I'm literally just spitballing but imagine the animation we'd get with even a quarter of the budget of game of thrones #or house of the dragon #the magic will be able to breath with animation in a way that it could never with live action #and maybe if they make this show #the targaryens can finally rest #asoiaf

I watched season 3 and rewatched season 1 and 2 of the umbrella academy and what I can gather is:

Five (season 1): Denial, anger

Five (season 2): Bargaining

Five (season 3): Depression, acceptance

#usually he's a colourful fruit salad of denial anger bargaining depression and more anger though #season 3 five just makes me especially sad though #like he was done #he could retire #have a nice road trip #figure himself out as a person for once #breathe a little #but nope #and he still explores all options until he finally gives up #cause he would rather die with his family all together rather than a sad lonely old man in a tube #or at the mercy of whatever reginald had in store for them #but even at the very end he still can't shake the instinct to protect his family #and beats allison to the last sigil in the floor and figures out the sigil in the first place #also jesus what was season 3 I feel like I had a fever dream lol #the umbrella academy #five hargreeves #tua #im not saying he passed through these stages instead they just layered on top of each other like a sad gooey cake

do you ever think about how kitay had a photographic memory which means that every detail of golyn niis was literally frozen in his brain for the rest of his life haha

Y E S i live for sad bily facts

Okay so! Hiding them in the tags cuz I’m on mobile enter at your own risk

#seriously If you don’t want spoilers or to be apart of the angst dont click!!!!! #first off: jungkook dies first #a seizure takes him out at 55-60 and it’s partially namjoon’s fault #namjoon doesn’t catch him before he hits his head and he goes through a period of depression after and eventually comes to the conclusion #that jungkook would have forgiven him and he would have #the kids take it the worst especially their youngest who ends up sleeping between the mc and tae for a full year #as for the next angsty tidbit- yoongi dies before the m/c #and she’s actually really really happy because he never got to know what a dead mating mark feels like like she’s actually very thankful #tae and the m/c and hobi are the last ones alive and they leave the house to their kids and retire to a smaller seaside cottage #hobi only gets to live in it for a few weeks before he passes at like 80 #the mc and tae live for a few more years after that both of them with their dead mating marks on the sides of their necks #the spend most of their time with their grand pups of which there are 8 of one of which looks so much like namjoon that #tae in her haze of dimentia actually talks to him like he is namjoon #tae and the m/c pass hours from each other though like #maybe less than 3 hours #and live until they’re 91 years old

The golden arm variant is just going to be a summoner arm that lets you call your husband Gabriel to help you fight it's fine he's fine he's going to be fine I'm clearly fine

#ultrakill #apparently the there's another arm you're going to get in the third act #called the Golden Arm #and considering how you got your last two arms #and the character we know to have golden arms presently #some people are slightly concerned #not me though I'm so fine #I'm not even going to go into a depressive episode that may last for months after the game ends in tragedy #because it's going to be fine actually

what makes minedai even sadder is that we never rlly see daigo try to build a bond with anyone else like he did with mine it rlly shows how badly it effected him like yeah he reached out to shinada in y5 but that’s rlly it and he probably would wanna leave him alone after that and not involve him in any yakuza stuff so i don’t think they would’ve hung out or anything like that afterwards. All he rlly had were saejima and majima but they were more like babysitters than anything, wish we saw more of their dynamic tho like we did with majima and daigo in dead souls since that was fun and we were lowkey robbed but in canon he’s just as lonely as he was before majimas promise to kiryu. And mine is the only person he really had a meaningful relationship with romantic or not they were still really close and we don��t see that again with daigo ever (from what i recall after y3) ok sorry for rambling LMFAO

even with shinada, he reached out to him more so out of 'duty' and trying to make up for the misfortune that befell him because of yakuza than wanting to rekindle any kind of friendship they might have had in high school (though it sounds more like they were just acquaintances if shinada needing a second to remember who daigo was is anything), so yah i doubt they really had any kind of bond afterwards

dead souls really was the only time after Y3 where we got to see daigo be more sociable with someone, but its as you say majima and saejima are more like retainers than close friends

#snap chats #you can tell i was into fire emblem when the first term that comes to my mind to call majima and saejima was 'retainers' omfg #but yeah ..... depressing .... #does make me wonder who daigo was on the phone with during the rggo story though. like clearly daigo has friends #apparently. we just never see or hear of them. tho ig it is implied those were his friends from the y2 era. as mine said flarkjla #REGARDLESS yeah after y3 daigo just feels depressing to watch #i think its just because he really has to do everything on his own now #but not even have a friend to just chill with at the end of the day- like the technical work is whatever. for the most part #THATS stressful obvi so to not have anyone to really be personable with thats probably the dire part. imo. #cause yk the world could suck but as long as you have that One Person to just relax with then its ok but with mine gone. 🧍‍♂️ #probably doesnt help that like. during the 'flashback' segment of y3 where we get to see daigo sitting with kiryu and nakahara #we see him all cheery and bein a lil jokester and just. A Happy Dude #granted this is barely a year or two into being chairman so The Horrors Havent Set In relatively but still ... i miss his smile .. #every time i think of daigo post-mine i think of those like. tragedies or accounts of people where its like #'after X's friend/lover died they never found another again' like thats the vibe i always get #he really packed it up and never got close with anyone else again and it makes me want to throw up #y4 widow arc still good tho it makes me chortle

“Only good captain’s get gifts,” he tsked lightly, his turn for a teasing tone, “You shouldn’t have messed with me if you wanted something, Roger.”

“Rayleigh—” it would be incorrect to have called it anything other than a whine, but Rayleigh would allow his captain to keep some honor— “I was just playing around!”

#eyezmaze #grow island #flash #i loved eyezmaze games. adored them. #and this especially is a classic imo #the alien ending was a tiny bit depressing to me :( i didn't like seeing the tiny guys get all gray #but the normal one was really cute though not as much as grow valley

[leafie-draws]

I actually kinda want to make some art or a comic about my hospitalization story but it's really personal and I'm worried about it being too abstract or dark or whatever :/

#leafie speaks #and there isn't like.. a punchline at the end or anything. just that it was Bad and trying to get help for depression traumatized me lol #it might resonate with some people though. hmm..

I was sitting in the tub after my workout tonight and kind of mentally spiraling (like you do). And I was thinking about suicide (I'm fine I promise) and I realized that I could never do that. Mostly because I love my husband and my cat and I could never do that to them. I could never put them through that. And I have been struggling every day for literal months due to my depression and my anxiety and the issue I have with adjusting to new situations (like transferring for work). But I love them enough to struggle and get through this. And that hit me like a wave tonight.

And it also showed me that I do actually have hope. I thought to myself that I love them enough to struggle *and get through this.* I realized that I'm going to get *through* this and I'm going to be okay.

#the dumbest rant but i was just sitting there in lukewarm bath water and this hit my right in my emotions so hard #there may be a light at the end of the tunnel #it might be a train though #i don't know #it just felt good to think a happy thought and i felt the need to highlight that #I'm sure i'm going to have good days and bad days still #but idk i want to acknowledge a happy little thought #personal #rant #mental health #tw: suicide mention #tw: depression #tw: anxiety #tw: suicide #i also just keep hearing the Mountain Goats song that goes 'I'm going to make it through this year if it kills me' or something like that

i wish transfem headcanons were as common and respected as transmasc ones, not just in slenderverse but in fandom as a whole. the only time i see transfem headcanons is when people say someone could be either (which is true, but when there's such a lack of one, it can be frustrating), or it's put on maybe One girl character, which i've noticed most people don't really care about to begin with, and is its own problem. at the same time, i don't think i'm really smart enough to delve about the complexities of the entire issue, and even if i did the last thing i like to do online is start any kind of skirmish or conflict

like i completely understand maybe people don't want to change a character's personality or appearance, but i also need more people to consider why they feel like a character being a girl would change anything about them in the first place

#og #not gonna tag this one because it's more vent-y #this is partly in response to the anons i get every week or so asking me why i headcanon shaun the way i do #and as much as i want to just say ''why not?'' i can't deny it does make me kind of depressed #when the only transfem headcanon i have is questioned so damn much even though it barely changes her character anyways #but in the past when i headcanoned her differently no such thing ever happened. not once. why is that. and when will it end #like have you ever considered people just want a little more variety in their transgenderism Sometimes

OBVIOUS MAJOR SPOILERS AHEAD BECAUSE IM A WEAK LITTLE BITCH WHO CANT DEAL WITH ENDINGS

so like... is there a way to finish the game without gortash dying because holy shit

because i lost all will to do lots of playthroughs on different characters like the regular ending/epilogue is shitty not fulfilling enough, but a durge one......

and my regular tav could not care less about gortash, he's a prick a tyrant sure let him perish

but if there's supposed to be so many choices, why isnt there a true evil choice where you can side with gortash/orin without them fucking dying a second later

IT MAKES NO SENSE TO ME

and then you have the dark urge run where, dear god, if anything there should be a gortash ending, and im not even talking about romancing him, like for gods sake we 'started' (well...technically) this Plan so shouldn't there be an option to go full evil bastards with him????

like bruh i wanted to do a full durge run but now i don't want to finish the game on any other characters either because holy shit

#ALSO GIVE ME MY FUCKING CELEBRATION PARTY EPILOGUE WHAT KIND OF FUCKING RPG IS THIS #WHY IS ASTARION ONLY SHOWN RUNNING AWAY POSSIBLY DYING AND SUFFERING EVEN THOUGH WE BECAME FRIENDS #AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH #im sorry im bitter ignore me #BUT ENVER GORTASH HOLY FUCKKK #bg3 #bg3 spoilers #enver gortash #lord gortash #bg3 gortash #bg3 astarion #astarion #baldur's gate 3 #bg3 karlach #karlach #bg3 ending #larian studios #im also on full on post game depression mode #forgive me #also kill me #the dark urge #durge #bg3 durge #durge spoilers #gortash x durge

[brutalmasks]

bunny mask is literally the living embodiment of songs like ' dog days are over ' by florence + the machine and ' rebel girl ' by bikini kill. and no, i will not be taking criticism

#SOMETHING FEELS AMISS: musings. #LET ME TEACH YOU: headcanons. #HEAVY on dog days are over though. because the dog days of summer are often the most hot and miserable... so saying that they're over means- #that even though it may seem like these days are never going to end... they will and your spirit of happiness will return. #i don't think there is a solid interpretation out there as to what it's about but it is VERY MUCH a song that is about overcoming- #something difficult and / or overcoming depression to me. and that represents bunny mask pretty well i think. she was literally trapped in- #cave for what felt like FOREVER and wasn't sure whether she'd ever be released but she was + she was given a new start with her life in a- #way because of that. and i'm not trying to overinflate bunny mask's character here but... hey. whenever it comes to ' rebel girl ' - #bunny mask is VERY much a girl's girl so i feel like it's equally as likely that she feels the same kind of admiration for other women that- #the singer does and firmly believes that women should lift other women up rather than bring them down. plusss... this song kind of has- #an underlying message in it about the confusion between friendship and sexuality whichhh i could kind of see bunny mask experiencing? #because she is still trying to wrap her head around the different kinds of love that exist and whether if you like someone so much that you- #want to BE THEM... does that mean that you just really like them as a friend or that you're in love with them?? idk but i just love #bunny mask being unapologetic about defending and loving her friends. so yeah. bunny mask is just very special to me okay

[mecub]

Is it normal to feel angry when the people around you fall in love? Like, I love my friends and I’m happy and proud that their crushes worked out and they have partners, and it’s not like they’re leaving me behind at all, but I’m angry for some reason?

Maybe it’s because they have something I literally can’t have? I’m ok with not having a romantic partner ever, but maybe less ok than I thought?

#aroace #aromantic #ughhhhhhhhhhhh whyyyyyy i just wanna be happy for this one friend #and then i see that their partner has something about how much they love my friend on their social media #and i’m angry???? #WHY #why am i angry this is not a reason to be angry #i don’t want romance #i know that #BUT MAYBE I DO WANT ROMANCE EVEN THOUGH I’M OK WITH BEING ALONE AND ROMACELESS FOREVER? #i guess i want the security of a romantic partner #and the feeling of having something “special” #stupid “more than friends” #I hate how romantic partners are treated as the ultimate relationship #one special person who nobody else can compare to #if that’s the case then all my friends will end up leaving me right? #if that’s the case then i’ll never matter to anyone fully #anywayyy that got depressing real fast #thank you to anyone who read all this #vent #rant

[kkujo]

something i don't see people talking about is the way hyperfixations come in like stages and cycles like it's not just "i'm obsessed with this thing" it's like. euphoria from finding something new and it brings you so much joy and then as that initial dopamine rush wears off you start to get more and more down and feel isolated as you start to realise that no one else cares about it as much as you do and you feel silly for being so into it and the thoughts become repetitive and boring so you get more and more depressed and lonely and then you inevitably lose the hyperfix which leaves you drifting feeling miserable and hopeless until you start the cycle again. idk if i explained this well or if other people will understand but it brings genuine phases of euphoria and straight up depression and this is why i get annoyed when neurotypicals use words like hyperfixation to describe like, an interest. bc it's not. just an interest it becomes who you are and when you lose it it's like losing yourself and you spend so much energy thinking about it that it interrupts your daily life and it's so fucking draining 👍

#like if i see one more nt being like hyperfixation this hyperfixation that SHUT UP!! YOU HAVE AN INTEREST #talk to me when you stay up until 6am every night bc you can't fucking sleep bc ur thinking about it. #talk to me when you can't process emotions in a normal healthy way because you can only relate it back to your hyperfix #paired w madd especially it's IMPOSSIBLE to be normal about shit i swear 2 god because the second i'm upset or lonely it's straight back to #immersing myself in another world and being someone else and not facing my emotions instead letting 'someone else' deal with them #not just negative emotions yk it's anything it's fully immersive to the point i end up not knowing exactly who i am myself bc i'm rarely #myself in my head yk #and it's so isolating #and this is why i get mad when people use these terms lightly bc they don't fucking get it #oh you're hyperfixated? oh you're delusional? you're delulu? watch this #< guy who has delusions that all of his friends secretly hate him bc he's too insane abt xyz media and who feels alone bc no one else is as #into it even though it wouldn't be reasonable to expect them to be #like i'm constantly questioning whether all my friends are secretly against me & finding me annoying anytime i talk about it but it's fine #it's so fucking isolating #i'm not losing my hyperfix yet thank god but i am in the stage of like realisation where the initial euphoria has worn off and i'm like #fuck no one else gets it. no one else is thinking about it like i am. and it's so lonely #< like not to sound like 'i'm 14 and no one gets me' or i'm not like other girls or whatever 😭 #it's not me being dramatic i genuinely. know that no one else is spending every waking moment thinking about the things i am the way i do #and it's so incredibly depressing i can't even explain it in a way that will make sense #because i want to talk about it so fucking bad and i can't. even to my friends and gf who always listen i end up feeling annoying #and then i get genuinely delusional not like tiktok girl voice delulu like i genuinely start questioning my entire reality #just if i talk about something a little too much #bc i'm convinced i'm fucking annoying and no one gets it and they're thinking bad things about me #but i know they wouldn't. but it feels like they are #idk #anyways !

[twentyfivemiceinatrenchcoat]

Why??? Don’t drop this chapter means a high possibility of gojo being alive him yuta and yuji will fight against sukuna trusttttt

anon i’m literally in mourning rn 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 using this ask as an excuse to rant about this chapter because i’m bitter don’t mind me

(jjk chapter 249 spoilers under cut !!)

to be clear i’m not actually dropping the manga lol i could never but i am eerily tempted <333 this is the only time i’ve actually been upset w akutami (normally i’m his white knight)……. i just feel sooo disappointed? part of me still has hope but i just. ack. :’3

first of all!!! i 100% believe gojo is alive and will return, and also that yuji & yuuta will be able to get gumi back (not sure if that’ll end well tho lmao) so i’m not worried abt that!! and i’m very hyped for sukuna vs yuuta in general, yuuta’s domain is sooo fucking sick and perfect for him!!!!

to be perfectly clear!! i’m upset about this <33

…………… i was so convinced that kenny wouldn’t die but my hopes are almost completely crushed atp… this just Feels like a death moment yk?? and i’m so disappointed not ONLY because kenny is my favorite character but also because this is such an unsatisfactory conclusion for him. :( kenny has so much depth and he’s so important for the narrative, so the fact that we didn’t get a single inner thought from him in his dying moment is like. sacreligious to me. TO BE CLEAR i LOVE his last words and the fact that he mentions takaba (kenkaba stays on top <333) and he looks super good in this panel also… but his death still feels so out of nowhere and unfinished to me.

a part of me is still hoping that he’ll survive somehow, or that we’ll at least see more of him through flashbacks or some afterlife sequence or whatnot, but i kinda…. doubt it. and that irks me. like i’m sorry but to me this just feels out of character for kenny?? he just accepted his death??? really????? he literally spent a millenium planning the merger and culling game just to satisfy his curiousity and suddenly he’s fine with not seeing it?????? i had this whole theory that kenny would find meaning in death (since it’s something completely outside his control, which is explicitly what he was searching for all along) but we didn’t get a single inner thought. no look into what he feels except that he’s happy to have met takaba (which is really sweet and i cried but that’s besides the point)…..

AND THEN THERE’S ALSO HIS CONNECTION TO YUJI. really???? we’re never gonna see a confrontation between them???? yuji is never gonna learn that kenny is his fucking mom????? even if choso tells him or whatever it doesn’t feel conclusive. i’m just mad because it feels like gege had soooo much planned that he wasn’t able to execute because the manga industry is running him ragged and that just sucks :(((( like. hahhhhh….. i just really feel that a villain as wonderful AND as important as kenny deserves more than just a couple panels for his death. naoya got more than that. obviously he was gonna die at some point but i had such high hopes for his final scene and even though i adored his fight with takaba it doesn’t feel right for him to die here.

so as u can tell i am extremely upset <333 i’ll get over it soon and i still have just a tinyyy bit of hope that we’ll see more of kenny but i just feel… so let down by this. i’m gonna treasure the kenkaba panel forever and ever and (again) i LOVE his last words but i just can’t feel satisfied with his death. for now i’m just gonna wait until tcb translates the chapter because the translation i read was clunky…. but i kinda doubt it’ll change much T_T

#sorry anon 💔💔💔 im trying not to be too bitter bc thats not fun for anyone lol but #im in mourning ok 😞😞😞 #tysm for sending this ask though hehe it gave me the chance to verbalize the Grief #im still super excited for next week but i need some time to be a lil depressed T_T #ask tag ✩ #jjk manga spoilers #jjk spoilers #jjk 249 #jjk leaks #jjk manga leaks #jujutsu kaisen spoilers #<- going extra heavy on the tags since the spoiler is in the ask itself .. i hope no one ends up spoiled by this hh T_T #i’m super sorry if so :’3
