Just reblogged art of Astarion covering Tav's mouth to shut them up and now I have a mighty need to write about Astarion and Tav in Baldur's Gate, separated from the rest of the party for a reason or another, in a romantic relationship, coming across one of those person Astarion do NOT want to come across because of shit he did in the past, so he drags Tav into a nearby alley, pins them against the closest wall, covers their mouth with his hand and whispers, firmly: "Not. A sound."
And he's busy checking they don't get caught but Tav is just standing there, having no idea what's happening, but letting Astarion doing what he wants because they trusts him, and thinking to themselves: "Hm. That's hot actually."

I played through the newest quest in Warframe and I wanted to draw fanart for a while now. It took forever as I always draw lineart on max zoom focused on details that don't really matter hah. One thing about warframe quests that I adore is how much depth and focus on humanity is in most of them.

Trolls Band Together and the Way it Presents Family Relations
Do you ever watch a movie then get possessed and write a 1623 word long essay about the complicated nuances of sibling relationships? ….me neither
Before we get into it I’m just going to say that a boy band made out of teens and children is never going to end well (look up the jackson 5 if you don’t know who they are already). Seriously, who let them do this? Also as a disclaimer I am the oldest of two so I will obviously not have as much experience with the position of the middle child or the youngest. This is written with the rough estimate of bro-zone ages as John Dory (~19), Bruce/Spruce (~17), Clay (~15), Floyd (~14), Branch (~5). Here's why I’m going with these: link. This got a little (a lot) out of hand but I hope you enjoy :]]
John Dory
John Dory’s role in the family is the leader, the responsible one. He embodies the oldest child syndrome, defined as: Obsession, desire for perfection, high self-esteem, or pressure to meet parents' expectations (link). For the most part John Dory is the closest thing they have to an adult (excluding Grandma who didn’t seem like she was doing much). Keep in mind he’s in his late teens in Bro-zone. He’s given this HUGE amount of responsibility of watching his four younger brothers and isn’t really given credit for it, only being “the bossy one”. This is mentioned once in the movie during their fight on the bus, but isn’t really mentioned afterwards or anything. This is pretty typical for the oldest sibling. Having to take on huge amounts of responsibility at a young age. 
John Dory wants his brothers to be happy so he pushes them to be perfect. He forgets there are other ways to be than just perfect. He ended up pushing them and pushing them until he had pushed them all away. Because of this want, this need to be perfect, John Dory ends up not realizing that people, including himself, are allowed to change. This is seen with his constant babying of branch and deadnaming of Bruce. He even says “Well, I wasn’t allowed to change! I’m the oldest. I had to be the leader” 
Bruce/Spruce
Bruce is introduced as the hearthrob with chiseled abs. There are a couple of main features that people associate with the heartthrob character. Hot, irresponsible, and noncommittal. Out of all Bro-zone members, Bruce has the most healthy relationship with his boy band history. He balances what he hated in Bro-zone with what he liked. He disguards his name and any association with the band (although his reaction to John Dory calling him Spruce shows that he is recognized from time to time).  He settles down quicker than any other member, something that goes directly against heartthrob stereotypes and has an (frankly unbelievable) amount of children. But despite separating himself from Bro-zone, Bruce stays in the spotlight in his co-ownership of Vacay Island. 
Clay
Clay falls into the common comedy relief middle child trope. Clay is also the one that suffers the most from stereotyping during the Bro-zone era. The audience's first introduction of Clay is him being told that he needs to continue being the funny one despite his protests. 
This is made even more evident when he’s introduced post Bro-zone breakup. Clay spends the majority of the 20 years apart being the opposite of the fun guy. He feels like he has something to prove. Clay tries his hardest to distance himself from Bro-zone and in the end he dedicates years to it. His entire personality is trying to escape the stereotypes he was put in as a teen.
Floyd
I have SO MANY feelings about Floyd. He’s the one in the Bro-zone that we get the most character development (other than Branch of course). Floyd’s role in the family is the mediator. He’s the one who watches for the other’s mental health and steps in when John Dory gets a little too intense. In the opening scene he not only checks in with John Dory, telling him to take deep breaths, he also helps Little Branch through some first show nerves. It doesn’t seem like this is the first time either. Floyd is also the one that seems most reluctant to break up the band and to leave Branch alone so it’s clear how much he cares for Branch. He ends up being the rock of the family. Branch tells Poppy that Floyd would be the one brother that he’d be willing to go on another adventure for.*
*I’m not sure if this is actually true, Branch also might do this for his other brothers but definitely not as willingly
Comparatively, Floyd changed the least after the band broke up. He takes a mediator role even in Velvet and Veneer’s relationship and continues to show a people pleasing, other-people-first attitude. This proves true to the real life people pleaser experience, these habits stick around long after leaving the environment that created it. Velvet and Veneer stealing Floyd’s talent is a metaphor for the way that people take and take from a selfless person like Floyd until the person is completely burnt out. Some, like Veneer, are more worried about the person's health but still end up taking it. Others, like Velvet, don't care and take it without thought. 
Another key factor with Floyd is his selfless, self-sacrificial nature. During both John Dory and Branch’s visits to him in the dressing room, Floyd insists that they leave him to save themselves despite his life being in danger. 
Branch
Branch is basically abandonment issues personified. Okay it’s a little more complicated than that but when you get down to it yeah. When I think about Branch, maybe 6 years old, in a boyband it makes me think of family vlog channels. IT’S SO INCREDIBLY UNHEALTHY. I promise I’m normal about this (lying).
Of course these problems start with the fact that he was ACTUALLY ABANDONED??? Then these abandonment issues are only accentuated by his grandma’s death. Whether or not Floyd meant to, he put the weight of taking care of Grandma on Branch’s shoulders. This just means he felt worse being the major cause of her death. This creates the feeling that he’s not only been abandoned again (this time in death) he feels like it’s his fault. Fun!
Branch shows a very interesting combination of self isolation and building his life around making people stay. Particularly his brothers. Branch hides in the fear of being abandoned again, first from the outside world and then from Poppy in his refusal to open up. At the same time he says he doesn’t want them [his brothers] to come back into his life then makes a bunker based on the base they wanted to build together. He keeps wearing Floyd’s old jacket and he holds onto the dream they once had. I mean for someone who claims to want his brothers out of his life did you SEE those puppy dog eyes when they told him they were planning to separate after rescuing Floyd.
Branch’s actual place in the family is the baby of the family. Although this label may have fit him 20 years ago, Branch has long outgrown it. Not that anyone else cares (other than Floyd). His family continues to treat him as the baby and ignore his maturity and needs. Upon reuniting with his older siblings Branch is promptly picked up, pinched, and generally treated like a child. Even Clay and Bruce who except each other in the ways that they’ve changed, still treat Branch like a small child. Now he feels like he has to prove that he isn’t a child, i.e. refusing the pacifier from Baby Diamond over and over again. 
In conclusion, Trolls Band Together is a wonderful movie that presents common band stereotypes and the ways that being put in boxes affect the real people behind the band. It highlights people stuck in their boxes, John Dory as the leader and Floyd as the sensitive people-pleaser. It also shows those who try (to vairing degrees of success) escape the boxes, Branch as the baby, Bruce as the heartthrob, and Clay as the funny one.

I’m thinking of starting a big Nanami cross stitch (on the same scale as this Kakashi and this Kiba and yes, I made those). These are the two images I’m considering (I use anime/manga images only for obvious reasons) but which one do I choose?!

currently losing my mind over Eddie saying “I’m really living up to that Munson name” and how he in fact does. except it’s not his father who he takes after, it’s his uncle.
his uncle Wayne who has taken him in and always accepted him for who he is. who sleeps on a foldout bed in the living room so that his nephew would have his own room to study and pursue his hobbies. who tries his best to be a safe place for him no matter what. who has always been nothing but protective over him, been trying to shield him from harm, to take care of him, to give him a home.
and Eddie embodies, perhaps inadvertently, what Wayne has been to him and he takes a bunch of outcasts under his wing, and he courageously chooses Mordor even in the face of all the trauma and danger he’s already been through if it means helping save Max, and he chooses to offer all the skills and resources he has all while battling his own fear, and he’s willing to return to the hellish Upside Down and push aside all the horror he associates with it
Eddie does live up to the Munson name. to the deep-rooted conviction to keep trying to do the right thing no matter what everyone else thinks, no matter his own terror. he prioritizes taking care of who he loves. and he passes his love and his need to protect further on, even with his last breath

mappa's animators said that this whole sukuna animation bit was just 30% of their desired vision.
Tumblr media
let that sink in. let that sink in.
you're telling me. if mappa just... TREATED their amazing workers better. we could've gotten something more higher quality than THIS.
mappa what the fuck is wrong with you. we've been robbed, just like how their workers were robbed of human decency. like bffr. i get wanting to be the top, but overworking the backbones, the pillars of your espionage isn't it. its just not it.
I GENUINELY wouldn't be surprised if their animators target jjk and nerf its animation quality, because they know jjk is so, so popular worldwide, i wouldn't even be surprised if they self sabotage. they deserve ALL BREAKS, ALL TREATS, ALL GLORY. they deserve so much.
MAPPA ANIMATORS HAVE SERVED.
it's not '#thank you mappa.'
it's #THANK YOU, MAPPA ANIMATORS.

hello it’s early morning stressy depressy hours so i’m going to come and whisper something into the void.
as someone who has been habitually and consistently Bad At Life for quite some time, there’s not a day that goes by where i don’t feel like i’m letting someone(s) down. i’m terrible at replying to people. my dms and messages are a graveyard of conversations i couldn’t finish. i disappear for days/weeks. sometimes all i can do is read or write and i can’t hold a back and forth to save my life.
so i found an incredible place of people (thank you fanfiction). and i do my best. but sometimes i think they get annoyed because my best isn’t actually all that great. and i’m just trying to keep up.
sometimes my head is very busy and other times there’s tumbleweed and the occasional dead gay wizard floating in there, looking around the walls like “what the fuck is this place?” and trying to find the balance so that i can Human for other people is tricky.
anyway i feel very grateful and very guilty and that feels right about on time and on brand for christmas💀
but i have a suspicion that this is not a unique feeling to me in this space.

I'm so glad I've found an artist who loves and draws ShinGou and also read "Turnabout Ennemies" (happy sounds) One of my favourite part with this two was when they took cover during Blaise's breakdown - I laughed so hard imagining their faces! XD
Welcome welcome!! Yes I love weird old man ships, they are incredibly important to me-- and "Turnabout Enemies" was indeed a ton of fun!!
