dying's a boring side effect // the dream thieves warm ups

[notyournecromancer]

this was Gansey with a lofty tilt to his chin. a condescending quirk to his mouth.

“And what is it my dog needs?”

Ronan’s lips curled into a smile.

I know it's not what you were going for, but now that Finn Wolfhard is all shave headed it's rewired my brains on what Ronan Lynch looks like... huh.... maybe he was a skinny bean pole... noooooo.... unless....

you’re like the 4th person to bring this up 😂 ronan doesn’t look anything like finn in my head tbh but the first time i was drawing him i had to try very hard to make him not look like finn because i was so used to drawing mike wheeler 💀

[geteaten-or-flyintothesun]

something sooo healing about reminding myself that Adam enjoys Ronan's company and that Ronan loves him so much

Tell Me Why: Eddy

Hey there everybody! I’m back at it with more of the Don’t Nod game “Tell Me Why” and man is it still a heavy hitter emotionally for me. The main two characters are twins Alyson “Aly” Ronan and Tyler Ronan. Tyler is a trans-male character so if you aren’t big on that kinda thing then this is not the video or game for you. The game revolves around the mystery of what actually happened the night…

Spirited Away (2001) ★★★★ 1/2 Watched June 10, 2023

Luca (2021) ★★★★ Watched November 4, 2023

The Secret Life of Walter Mitty (2013) ★★★ Watched December 20, 2023

🐻‍❄️ says: one-time watch typa beat. peaked at the cinematography but story, script, and pacing could have been better. loses composure because of how fantastical it is. overall, just ok.

🎸 says: not much to say about this movie, but i did like the quote -- "to see the world, things dangerous to come to, to see behind walls, draw closer, to find each other, and to feel. that is the purpose of life." words to live by.

one thing i'm SUPER excited about the dream thieves graphic novel is the way they're gonna depict ronan crushing on adam😭😭😭😭 most of the hints we get on that is Ronan's internal monologue and it's hard to translate that in a visual media so i'm curious to see how they'll manage the whole build-up... my kids...

[ganseylike]

detail thoughts:

- love ronan’s obviously expensive (non-uniform) coat, intrigued that his tattoo doesn’t reach to his neck as far as we can see

- love how noah’s “crushed” side is blocked, also curious if he’ll often be blocked/awkward in panel compositions? could be a cool concept?

- love blue and ronan having the same gaze! yes! lusting for gansey. who said that.

- adam’s slight mullet. justice. plus great contrast to the three other boys all having identical clean cuts on the back of their heads. and i know it’s just dramatic sunlight but if he really had a kinda shitty bleach job i wouldn’t be mad

- everyone has freckles thank u sas

- blue with the classic ➿ choker! and bushy eyebrows!!! also i always forgot how short she’s supposed to be like damn. excited to see how they’ll play into that visually! and her being the only one with her full face shown is nice <3 i wish it was more obvious that she’s the main character but i respect that it’s lowkey too!

in conclusion: look how far we’ve come thank god <3

want to be more confident? say it first. science says your brain will follow.

affirmations aren’t just spiritual "fluff"—studies show that they actually rewire your brain.

whether you're a student, athlete, or dreamer, what you say to yourself matters more. than. you. think.

let me expound:

in 2007, golfer padraig harrington was on the verge of winning the british open.

he was confident, completely in the zone.

then it happened. a sudden moment of doubt crept in and one swing later, the ball splashed into the barry burn river.

disaster.

then, another shot. same mistake.

his confidence collapsed. he later reported: "i wanted to give up"

but then came his caddy ronan flood. he repeated one thing, over and over:

"one shot at a time. you're the best chipper and putter in the world"

that one single phrase pulled harrington back into focus. he hit a perfect shot. then another.

he went on to win the tournament.

here's the unexpected part:

flood—the caddy—admitted he didn't even believe the words himself. he thought they'd lost, but kept going with affirmations, anyway.

so, why do affirmations work—even when they feel fake?

thing is, repeating empowering words, even if you don't believe them, shifts your attention from fear to action. researchers at university of pennsylvania found that affirmations can lead to physical changes in the brain—affecting how you see yourself and what you believe you're capable of.

positive self-talk boosts your dopamine, activates motivation circuits, and reduces anxiety. a cycling study showed that athletes who repeated self-affirming phrases increased their performance by 18%, compared to those who didn't.

cases like these where self-talk like "you're doing well" or "you've got this" has shown to boost physical endurance and reduce discomfort.

this is, again, because repeating focused, positive affirmation helps you guide your attention away from fear, state of lack and toward confidence and action. even if the words feel fake at first they still work, because your brain is always listening.

which is why, just like harrington, you don't need to feel amazing to succeed. refocusing your mind, one thought at a time is enough—meaning:

even if you feel sad, miserable and angry—you can still affirm and succeed with affirmations alone, scientifically speaking.

which is, my point exactly:

you don't have to feel like you're on cloud nine while affirming, visualizing or assuming. the fact that you're even doing it is enough!

your brain is paying attention and your subconscious is working with and not against you.

ronsey

who wants to hear something a little bonkers perhaps

[posergrandpa]

the visualization in my brain of gansey going through the stages of grief because ronan wrecked the pig, getting emergency steered to the kitchen by his big sister, calling ronan and then taking the phone away from his ear to check the caller id when kavinsky picks up, only to politely answer with ‘joseph.’ is throwing me into hysterics rn

MCU Timeline: Guardians of the Galaxy

Before creation - six singularities exist.

The Big Bang - the remnants of the six singularities are forged into the Infinity Stones.

~1014-2014 - war between the Kree and the Nova Empire.

Hundreds of years before 2014 - the Tivan Group sends workers to extract organic matter from the skull of a dead celestial being (a place known as Knowhere).

Few months before Meredith Quill's death - she is diagnosed with terminal brain cancer.

2:30 am, ~April, 1988 - the death of Meredith Quill. Her son Peter is abducted by The Ravagers.

Note: based on visual cues, it's either April/May or September. What if? S2 E2 takes place 6 months after the abduction, but still in 1988. It can't be later than September/October, so the match would be April.

1988-2014 - Yondu Udonta raises Peter Quill. Peter becomes the Ravager "known" as Star-Lord.

The main events take place in the summer of 2014.

Since we are not on Earth in this film, there will be no dates or time coordinates. The exact number of days that have passed cannot be determined either, since we are talking about interstellar flights, various celestial bodies and extraterrestrial technologies. Seasons, coordinate systems and the length of the earthly day do not apply here.

Shortly before Day 1 - The Kree Empire and the Nova Empire sign a peace treaty.

Day 1:

Thanos lends Gamora and Nebula to Ronan the Accuser to help him find the Power Stone.

Peter Quill steals the Orb containing the Power Stone from the planet Morag. He is attacked by Ronan's men led by Korath, but manages to escape.

Riots across the Kree Empire protesting the recent peace treaty signed by the Kree Emperor and Xandar's Nova Prime.

Peter dismisses Yondu's demand to give him the Orb, and Yondu puts a bounty on Peter with the condition that he be brought alive.

Ronan awakens on his ship, the Dark Aster, and kills a Nova Corps officer.

Korath returns to the Dark Aster and tells Ronan about the stolen Orb. Ronan sends Gamora to retrieve the artifact.

~Day 2:

On Xandar, Peter fails to sell the Orb to the Broker. He is attacked by Gamora, Rocket, and Groot. They are all eventually arrested by the Nova Corps.

Ronan destroys Xandarian outposts across the galaxy.

The Kree Empire refuses to respond to Ronan's crimes.

Nova Corps officers process Gamora, Quill, Rocket, and Groot and send them to the Kyln prison to await sentencing.

~Day 3:

The four arrive at the Kyln.

Night - prisoners attempt to kill Gamora. Drax the Destroyer intervenes, wanting to do it himself. Gamora is saved by Peter, who offers Drax the chance to kill Ronan instead.

Peter, Gamora, Rocket (and Groot) agree on a plan to escape and sell the Orb to the Collector.

~Day 4:

Other tells Ronan about Gamora's real plan and that Thanos demands his presence at his Sanctuary.

Ronan comes to the Sanctuary and kills Other. Thanos threatens to kill Ronan unless he brings him the Orb. Ronan and Nebula head to the Kyln.

The future Guardians of the Galaxy escape from prison.

They head to the Collector's base on Knowhere.

Ronan and Co arrive at the Kyln just after GotG has escaped the prison. Ronan orders the Necrocraft to be sent after the escapees and kill the guards and prisoners.

Yondu visits the Broker to get information about the Orb's buyer.

The collector orders his slave Carina to clean the display cases containing his "exhibits".

~Day 5:

GotG arrive on Knowhere.

The Collector makes them wait. Peter almost kisses Gamora, Drax and Rocket (and Groot) almost kill each other. Drax leaves drunk and challenges Ronan to a fight.

Tivan finally invites Gamora and Co. He tells them about the Infinity Stones and is about to complete the deal, but Carina touches the Power Stone and it explodes, destroying the place and killing her. Tivan, some of his "exhibits", and GotG survive.

GotG takes the Orb back and finds themselves surrounded by Ronan and Yondu.

Battle of Knowhere.

Ronan's men take the Orb. Quill saves Gamora's life, Groot saves Drax. Quill and Gamora are taken by Yondu.

Ronan learns that the Orb contains the Power Stone and calls Thanos to tell him that he no longer needs his help. Ronan grabs the Stone and places it in his hammer. He then threatens to kill Thanos when he is done with Xandar. Nebula joins him in hopes of revenge.

Peter makes a deal with Yondu to help save Xandar in exchange for the Stone. GotG reunites on the Ravagers' ship.

Peter convinces the others to try to stop Ronan. They come up with a plan.

~Day 6:

Gamora and Quill explain the plan to the Ravagers. Everyone prepares for battle. Quill sends a message to Nova Corps officer Rhomann Dey.

GotG+Ravagers and Ronan approach Xandar.

Rhomann Dey informs Nova Prime of Quill's message.

The Battle of Xandar.

The death of Garthan Saal, a Nova's Denarian, and most of the Nova Corps pilots who participated in the battle.

Drax kills Korath.

Groot sacrifices himself to save his teammates.

Nebula escapes.

The Dark Aster and Milano are destroyed.

GotG annihilate Ronan with the Power Stone.

Peter gives Yondu the orb without the Stone, and the Ravagers fly away.

GotG hand the Stone over to the Nova Corps.

For a sufficiently long number of days after:

Nova Corps expunges Guardians' criminal records.

Rhomann Dey is promoted to Denarian.

Nova Prime informs Peter that his father is not from Earth.

Nova gives the team a restored Milano.

Peter finally unwraps his mother's gift with the Awesome Mix vol.2.
