#they’re both so angry

Prompt 203

Another Hydra prompt! Because I am enjoying the designs I’ve made lol. And perhaps it’s a bit inspired by @radiance1 ‘s different dragon prompts too. 

So they’ve succeeded! They’ve managed to combine their powers- with a bit of shapeshifting helped along by so many ghost allies- and become a giant duck-you dragon! Well, originally they were going to do something else, but they couldn’t agree on an animal, so dragon it was! 

And how mighty they are! They’re giant, absolutely massive- dwarfing the couple of skyscrapers still in Amity. Damages via ghost attacks and general sparring made it where people really didn’t want to rebuild those types of buildings. 

But anyway, dragon! Them! They’re absolutely stunning! And did they mention powerful? Because boy oh boy, are they powerful. The GIW’s guns do practically nothing against their combined might, and barriers shatter before them! 

The uh, issue is that they erm… can’t turn back. Which is fine, they’ve all sort of outlived most of their generation- thank you possessions and ecto-contamination, it’s just a tiny bit of an adjustment. But really it’s not too bad, and someone needs to stop the GIW from trying to poke their heads into Amity. Like it’s been a solid couple of generations, it’s time to stop, thanks. 

Actually they’ve been a bit quiet. Meh, that surely isn’t a problem. Probably. Honestly they’re all going to use the opportunity to sprawl out where the school yard once was, their favorite place to sun their scales. Huh. Usually more people are around now that they think about it- or really, as Paulina points out, sharpening her fangs on one of the rocks. 

…

How long had they been sleeping, because it couldn’t have been that long. One of them was always awake, they slept in shifts after all! Yet there are things missing now as they patrol the skies, both Wes and Tucker pointing out specific buildings that the others didn’t particularly notice usually that now lay empty. 

Hm. 

Oh. That is a… strong barrier there. A really strong barrier actually. Pfft, they can take it! They’ve shredded every barrier together before- Ow. 

…

Okay this might be a bit of a problem. Shit. 

You want a general size reference? :P

The thing is, Jean Valjean’s “nineteen year prison sentence for stealing a loaf of bread” from Les Mis isn’t actually unusual….not even today! I see people talking about it as if it’s strange or unimaginable when it happens every day.

In modern America — often as a result of pointlessly cruel (and racist) habitual offender and mandatory minimum laws— people are routinely sentenced to life in prison for minor crimes like shoplifting or possession of drugs.

The ACLU did a report in 2013 detailing the lives of various people who were sentenced to life in prison without parole for nonviolent property crimes like:

•attempting to cash a stolen check

•a junk-dealer’s possession of stolen junk

metal (10 valves and one elbow pipe)

•possession of stolen wrenches

•siphoning gasoline from a truck

•stealing tools from a tool shed and a welding machine from a yard

•shoplifting three belts from a department store

•shoplifting several digital cameras

•shoplifting two jerseys from an athletic store

• taking a television, circular saw, and a power converter from a vacant house

• breaking into a closed liquor store in the middle of the night

And of course, so so so many people sentenced to life without parole for the possession of a few grams of drugs.

And we could go on and on!

Gregory Taylor was a homeless man in Los Angeles who, in 1997, was sentenced to “25 years to life” for attempting to steal food from a food kitchen. He was released after 13 years. The lawyers helping to release him even cited Les Miserables in their appeal, comparing Taylor’s sentence to Jean Valjean’s.

And there’s another specific bit of social commentary Hugo was making about Valjean’s trial that’s still depressingly relevant. He writes that Valjean was sentenced for the theft of loaf of bread, but also that the court managed to make that sentence stick by bringing up some of his past misdemeanors. For example, Valjean owned a gun and was known to occasionally poach wildlife (presumably for his starving family to eat.) . So the court exaggerates how harmful the bread theft was—he had to smash a windowpane to get the bread, which is basically Violence— then insist the fact that he owns a gun and occasionally poaches is proof that he is habitually and innately violent. Then when Valjean obviously becomes distressed traumatized and furious as a result of his nakedly unjust sentence and begins making desperate (and very unsuccessful/impulsive/ poorly thought through) attempts to escape…. the government indifferently tacks more years onto his sentence, labels him a “dangerous” felon, and insists that its initial read of him as an innately violent person was correct.

And it’s sad how a lot of the real life stories linked earlier are similar to the commentary Hugo wrote in 1863? Someone will commit a nonviolent property crime, and then the court insists that a bunch of other miscellaneous things they’ve done in the past (whether it’s other minor thefts or being addicted to drugs or w/e) are Proof they’re inherently violent and incapable of being around other people.

A small very petty fandom side note: This is also why I dislike all those common jokes you see everywhere along the lines of “lol it’s so unrealistic for the police to want to arrest Valjean over a loaf of bread, there must have been some other reason the police were pursuing him. Because the state would never punish someone that harshly and irrationally for no reason. so maybe javert was just gay haha”. (Ex: this tiktok— please don’t harass the creator or poster though, I don’t think they were intending to mean anything like that and its just a silly common type of joke you see made about Les mis all the time so it’s not unique in any way.) because like.

As much as I don’t think Les Mis is a flawless book or that its political messaging is perfect….the only way that insanely long unjust sentences for minor crimes is “unrealistic” is if you’re operating on the assumption that prisons are here to Keep You Safe by always only punishing bad criminals who do serious crimes. And that’s just, not true at all. Like I get that these are just goofy silly shallow jokes, and I’m not angry or going to harass anyone who makes them. but it feels like there’s an assumption underlying all those goofy jokes that “this is just not how prison works!” “Prisons don’t routinely sentence people to absurd laughably unjust pointless sentences!” “Prisons give people fair sentences for logical reasons!” When like…no

Valjean being relentlessly hounded and tortured for a minor crime in a way that is utterly ridiculous and arbitrary in its cruelty is not actually a plot hole in Les mis. It’s a plot hole in …..society ajsjkdkdkf. And the only way to fix that is to fight for prison abolition or at least reform, and (in America) stand up against the vicious naked cruelty of habitual offender and mandatory minimum laws.

But yeah :(. I hate how Les Mis opens with a prologue saying the novel will be obsolete the moment the social issues it describes have been resolved— but two hundred years later, the book is still more relevant than ever because we’re dealing with so many of the exact same injustices.

#les mis #lm 1.2.6 #Jean Valjean #anyway sometimes lm 1.2.6 makes me sad and sometimes it makes me angry #today I feel both #: ‘((((((((((((((( #but yeah #also again I don’t hate people who make the goofy ‘lol valjeans prison sentence was so unrealistic javert must be gay’ jokes #i get that they’re jokes #and that they’re mostly made by people who like watched Les mis 2012 once #but also #but also but also #:’’’’( #I don’t know the tragedy of valjeans story and the continued relevance of that social commentary Gets to me #Les mis letters #Les mis daily

Mork just. Cares so much. He bought day slippers so that he wouldn’t hurt his feet again when he left his room. He literally blindfolded himself so that he could try to better understand what day is going through, even just a little bit. He got day another goldfish so that little day wouldn’t be lonely oh the metaphors. He’s so so sweet and I love him so much

#I love day to they have completely captured my heart #they’re both so angry at the world and yet so soft and kind #and I love how much they connect over the goldfish I love the goldfish they make me SO happy #last twilight #last twilight the series

i can’t wait for petrigrof to work out their toxic yuri next episode like I’m rooting for them but I need them to rip each other apart first. i need betty to call simon out for nearly throwing away his sanity again after all she sacrificed for him. i need simon to finally insist that he never asked her to.

they’re both always so ready to throw themselves away, because it’s an act of love, because it’s all they know. but it’s always a selfish decision too. no one wants to be the person who has to figure out what they are without the other.

They love each other. They’ll do anything for each to the point of causing them pain. And neither of them stop to wonder if maybe that’s the problem. That maybe, if they could find a way to choose themselves first, that would make a path for them to be together. But all they do is sacrifice: expeditions, sanity, whatever it takes. And they’re never gonna be happy until they make the choice to value their life for its own sake, rather than as a bargaining chip.

#theyre both so annoying like i neeed them to get angry #no one ever asked them to be martyrs!!! it doesn’t help anyone!! #have either of them ever thought that it’s actually harmful to their loved ones when they keep putting themselves in danger #that maybe they’re causing more harm than good hmmm #idiots. love them #fionna and cake #petrigrof

at first i thought this idea was silly but i mean. it probably would be a big deal for the prince of patchland to be made of synthetic fibers, so uh

bonus doodle of me when i actually am sewing lol (sorry for the anatomically incorrect iron)

#yeah it’s anatomically incorrect (like everything i draw) because i really didnt feel like getting a reference #okay here’s your explanations #singer and brother are both sewing machine brands lol #inter facing makes stuff stiff #smth not cut on the bias won’t stretch as well (basically he’s saying they’re not flexible. i didn’t mean literally but ig you could #interpret it that way. idk whatever) #tulle is a light and airy fabric yea but it’s also a bit stiff and scratchy so…don’t tell kirby that i guess #anyway these made me giggle and i lost sleep because!!! #I kept thinking about them for so long #and now ive had awful insomnia all week and have hardly slept lol so hoping posting this will help (I wish) #but i have more ideas so i might do more later #kirbyposting #kirby #prince fluff #king dedede #also fluff just looks angry a lot i promise he isn’t #can interpret as kirfluff #btw i suck at sewing so feel free to correct me

tbh when mitski said “you’re my best friend/now i’ve no one to tell/how i lost my best friend”

#my freshman year of college my best friend and I were both a wreck #and on opposite sides of the country #during winter break I made the decision to share certain information with their parents bc I was actively concerned for their safety #they were deeply upset about me betraying their trust like that and asked for a break in our friendship #(a few months later (which happened to be early March 2020. lol) they did shrooms and realized they wanted to talk to me again lmao) #(so we talked and cried and now we’re still best friends almost 4 years later) #and my birthday is in january so it fell right in the middle of the period we weren’t talking #and my friends at school actually put together a really lovely party and it remains to this day the best bday party ive had #(most of my bdays have been sad and shitty lol) #but i just remember being drunk in my friends dorm room with my friends all around me #it was the end of the night people were just kinda chatting in little groups or whatever #and i was lying on my friends bed just miserable bc all I could think about was how my best friend was supposed to be there too #bc my parents were going to fly them out for the weekend as a present #and obviously that just got dropped #and id been talking to my friends about it kind of but all I wanted was my actual best friend #I left them a very embarrassing drunk voicemail that THANK GOD they deleted without listening to #but it’s just. the quiet agony of being angry and sad and hurt because your person doesn’t want to be ur person anymore #and still wanting to talk to them about it. still needing them to comfort you and give you their advice and insights #i don’t want to talk to anyone else about it. they’re not you. #sigh. anyway. ive actually lost several close friends for various reasons ranging from reasonable to bullshit #and it always blindsides me how much I want to talk to THEM about it #so thanks mitski for expressing that so artfully #op

steve and cesare def both consider their respective crews to be ‘their’ humans but in a kind of “oops i accidentally got attached” way

#david.txt #bigtop burger #thinking many thoughts. i love parallels #they were both ostracized from their respective societies for reasons outside of their control (lbr it was the neurodivergency) #and then forcefully removed from it via murder/banishment so they’re both very lonely individuals #cesare deals with the alienation by being Loud and Angry bc it’s easier to convince himself he doesn’t need anyone that way #bc who would WANT to be around him #whereas steve i think actively seeks out companionship but still tries to distance himself (which is why he always uses the wrong names) #pov you’re an ancient being who gets shown kindness for the first time in who knows how long and you don’t know how to deal with it #at work with a single .jpg of a burger floating above my head like in the sims

I've been rereading pez dispenser debris and god Izuku is so much braver then me, if a past version of myself showed up and started sharing my deepest darkest secrets to anyone in earshot I would not be handling it well at all. Like forget having 12 simultaneous panic attacks, I would straight up jump to murder, confirming all of baby me's worst fears. Actual nightmare scenario. Izuku is a saint for real.

Young Izuku: you obviously killed me

Older Izuku: I deserve an award for NOT killing you

#pez dispenser debris #old Izuku is going through it #so is young Izuku for the record #they’re both in so much pain and it’s just all directed towards each other #and the sad thing is that so much of it is the same pain #they’re both reacting to the exact same pain of what other people did to them because they were quirkless #older Izuku is the one who hasn’t had a fresh wound in a while and is reacting to the terror of returning to that #young Izuku is the one who is in the pain and is so fucking angry that he has to feel it #but it’s the exact same pain and the exact same wound #young Izuku genuinely thinks he was murdered and that no one will ever care enough about him to give him justice #and that this is his only goddamn chance to make anyone even inconvenienced by his death #he doesn’t think anything will happen in the long run #he doesn’t think they’ll do anything about it #he genuinely thinks the most he’ll get are these brief moments of irritation #he thinks keeping silent to be safe is mutually exclusive with getting any kind of payback for his own murfer

Imagine if disney would give her actual good costumes like this for snow white ....... like what’s even the point

#snow white #rachel zegler #disney #if anyone cares these are from the new hunger games prequel and west side story #like that corset/stays/whatever is PERFECT are we kidding #and the red lip on maria.....it’s all there #conspiracy theory that they’re trying to make their woc leads look bad on purpose so that angry conservatives will be like see the wokeism #is ruining everything. we saw this with the little mermaid too (though to a lesser extent because the costumes were decent quality the cgi #stuff was just kinda bad and her hair was dull) #but in both cases the outrage was the same and taken out on the actresses #my words

hi hello i was thinking abt it bc of ur posts on vani and ven recently. what are ur thoughts on what bits of feelings vanitas gets from ventus. i am. curious tm

hello. you are in so much luck because I’ve been thinking about them somehow even more bc I just received a zine and also get to see them soon again with my friend. Hi. Hello

i tend to think it works like a sieve. Vani’s heart isn’t healed over, so it thinks it should still be getting feelings from the other part of it, which it does if they’re strong enough. He can get REALLY specific with them too — Ven’s happy because Terra gave him a strawberry tart. Ven’s relieved because he had previously been nervous but Aqua told him a story so everything is fine. — but he only ever gets the good feelings consistently (because that’s what he’s missing), and only gets the bad feelings if they overflow. At which point it kind of becomes dangerous for the both of them because they can get caught in a feedback loop of negativity and push it way worse than it needs to/they originally wanted to be and overstimulate each other just on pure Feels Angry or Feels Bad. Because!! Also! Ven can feel what vanitas does Only if it overflows from his side, only if they’re close proximity, and only the really nasty feelings. Most of them slough off into unversed or chimera unversed so this rarely ever happens, and it only becomes a problem when they’re too close and too busy and too upset. Like their boss fight. u could probably feel the nasty energy radiating off them

anyways I was getting off track vani can feel positive emotions from ven a lot and he can only really understand them when they’re happening and he ceases to really get it once they leave. His negativity reacts to ven’s positivity like fire and wood. It’s like depression+sisyphus’ eldritch madness. yaaaaay. Like this

Vanitas genuinely hates him. For a lot of reasons not the least of which is it hurts him to keep being taunted and never given the reward. but in those moments of feeling happiness maybe he can pretend the feelings are his and cherish them for a moment…

#ven is burning him. he hates it #he’s got four years of bitterness pent up and released into monsters #his heart WANTS those feelings but it can’t hold on to them #likewise ven’s healing heart had a really hard time holding on to negativity. It makes him sweet but too passive #habits stick even if he isn’t instinctively driven to be detached and obedient anymore #LIKEWISE LIKEWISE!!! Vani should be allowed a full heart even if it’s pretty dark in there #because even a fully dark heart can experience the full range of emotions. They do get twisted but #anyways. Is late #ask #anon #oogh it’s really late. I’m scheduling this #kh #if they end up in a feedback loop and don’t consciously calm down it triggers rejection responses in both of em #meaning vani gets sick until he can get rid of all this excess unversed ingredience and ven gets panic attack/meltdown symptoms #they just freeze like oop. too far. BUT THEY’RE PROBABLY STILL ANGRY AT EACH OTHER SO THEY’RE STUPID AND SNAPPY #ven has to ride the feeling out entirely and vani tends to get rid of the whole thing thru 20 unversed so he feels Nothing for a bit

would you prefer to be in a relationship with satoru and suguru or sukuna and suguru?

WHY WOULD YOU DO THIS TO MEEEEEEEE AHHHHHHH i choose toji :3 save me DILF husband :3
