#2 Am thoughts

[astral-aromance]

I feel like 99% of the Silmarillion fans forget that Fëanor was actually a very likeable guy for most of his life.

That is literally a significant part of why people followed him. A lot of people loved and admired him. He wasn't mean to random people, and definitely not "a toxic husband/father." The whole point of his story is that he was universally beloved, which is what made his fall so impactful.

When Franz Kafka said that he is terribly afraid of dying because he hasn’t yet lived, i felt that on a deep emotional level.

Soft Daryl - ♡

♡ how daryl secretly loves when you run your fingers through his hair, nails gently grazing his scalp while he's falling asleep in your lap.

-

-

♡ imagine daryl letting his guard down around you and just letting you hold him. him crying into your shoulder while you rub his back, and he tells you anything and everything about his past.

♡ coming back from a difficult run to see you smiling at him, waiting for him to fall into your arms, completely vulnerable.

♡ the first time he kisses you in front of the group, and he doesn't want to let go, holding you against him for whole minutes never wanting it to end.

♡ "i love ya, y'know that?" "prettiest girl i ever seen" "i'll keep ya safe, honey"

♡ daryl coming back from a run with a beautiful ring, getting down on a knee under the sunset, and asking you to marry him despite the way the world is. "marry me? know the world is shit but long 's i got you dont care how 'nything else turns out"

It’s after 2am, so time for random thoughts.

Something had been nagging at me regarding that one panel of Jason from The Boy Wonder #2 by Juni Ba. His eyes are shown as virtually colorless. (Panel below)

As others have pointed out, there are a lot of stylistic and background details in the issue showing varying perspectives of how people, including himself, perceive him. It could be related to that somehow (I am not an expert in how colors represent emotion, but if this is correct, I’d suspect it’s related to his perceived isolation/loneliness).

But, the color makes me think of something else. Eyes often look cloudy after death and slowly turn opaque due to processes involved. With how scarred he’s depicted, I honestly wonder if his eye color is a nod to his death. (Apparently, this thought has been haunting me for like 3 hours)

Random side note on that thought. If you ever want to depict this in a fic, you can also add tardieu spots - what look like large splotches of blood from the decay of the blood vessels (they can occur on other parts of the body, but tend to look different elsewhere). Or a tache noir - a dark line formed horizontally across the center white of the eye if the eyes remain open for a few hours after death. For an extra creepy factor

You know how Dancetale battles are just. Dance battles?

Yeah, take that, now also make dance fights a very literal in world mechanic. ( Dancing isn’t optional when fighting )

Great, now make it so that anyone who enters Dancetale and participates in a fight is also forced to dance 🙂‍↕️

I just know Doug was fucking punching the air after they got GLaDOS ‘under control’ because now the robot knows how to pretend oh fuck.

He heard her ask for neurotoxin and he was like 🤨🤨🤨 no fucking way they fall for that, and then they did and Doug realized in that exact moment that everyone in there was going to die because WHAT DO YOU MEAN YES, HENRY? YOU MEAN THE SHIT SHE KEPT TRYING TO KILL US WITH, HENRY? THE STUFF WE HAD TO TAKE AWAY SO SHE WOULDNT KILL US, HENRY?

In general I just like to imagine Doug incredibly bitter and over Aperture’s bullshit but he’s also stuck there because this is a ‘big break’ or whatever.

I keep thinking about how in the fight at Mustafar Obi-Wan keeps trying to appeal to Anakin’s moral and ethical obligations to the Jedi and the republic. and even his obligations to the galaxy at large as the “chosen one”. because Obi-Wan himself is driven by his moral obligations to the Jedi and he has trouble grasping that Anakin is driven by his emotions on a fundamental level. That’s who he is. Anakin doesn’t have “lapses of judgement”, he makes his judgements with his emotions and acts on them. When picking between his obligations and his emotions, Anakin will almost always choose his emotions. But Obi-Wan still tries to reason with Anakin even as he’s fighting him and Anakin just keeps countering his points with his insane logic…up until he can’t. And even then Obi-Wan still tries by reminding him that Anakin was chosen one and was supposed to defeat the Sith. Which is when Anakin lets his emotions take over and he tells Obi-Wan that he hates him. And I think it was at that point that Obi-Wan finally understood that Anakin’s emotions will take precedence over his logic. So maybe when Obi-Wan told Anakin he loved him, he was really trying to reason with him in a way he thought might work, maybe he was desperately trying to give Anakin one last chance to take everything back, maybe he was just so full grief and anger and love - love despite everything - that the words slipped out, maybe seeing what Anakin’s emotions did him and seeing what Obi-Wan’s indifference did to their relationship is what pushed Obi-Wan into finally letting himself feel all of emotions, maybe - maybe Obi-Wan thought if he could let himself feel, if he didn’t let go of his emotions, if he let himself admit what Anakin had already told him thousands of times, then he might be able to understand how things turned out this way, he might be able to know why Anakin’s emotions drove him to this, he might be able to feel the depth of Anakin’s pain and understand how it was so easy for Anakin’s love to turn to hate. Or maybe Obi-Wan was just a fool who had loved his brother dearly and needed him to know.

i personally think it isn’t right that lewis looked so good playing a corrupt and reprehensible youth pastor…like you can’t look at this man and tell me this isn’t the sexiest he’s ever looked

you tell me you don't like poetry. that you prefer a messy text with bad grammar but authentic emotion. and I smile and tell you that my poetry is a lot like that, a list of drunk texts at 2 am I never sent the person I wrote them for. minus the bad grammar. but authentic emotion? but words that aren't pompous? expression that's human? that's what my poetry is. and now at close to 2 am, I want to send you some texts. authentic emotion. lower caps. lacking punctuation perhaps. but what would I say? I'm not drunk. and I'm not in love. maybe one day you will read my poetry and wonder if in another universe we would know each other better and how wonderfully authentic that would be, how spectacularly human.

Eddie: Last night, a mosquito tried to bite me and I slapped it and killed it.

Buck: That's very interesting?

Eddie: And I started thinking. Like, it was trying to get food, you know? What if I went to the fridge and it just slammed shut and snapped my neck?

Buck: Eddie, are you ok?

Who would've thought it'd be holding your hand where I'd lose my footing? After all we'd been moving in tandem half our lives. The question plaguing me is not the why or the how, it's the when. When did we lose sight of each other? When did the ache of missing you turn into relief inspired by your absence? Perhaps when you started seeing my wins as your losses. Perhaps when you wanted to be heard to be so bad, you forgot to listen. Our story has two sides, I know. I turned into a ghost for you. An empty casket haunted by memories that'd lost their shine long ago. I no longer wanted to talk about the sunlit past, glorified treasures of time that felt bigger for you each day because nothing came after. I no longer wanted to pretend we had a future together going forward. We didn't. We don't. I knew, you knew, but we didn't voice it. We couldn't. Things like this happened to other people, not to us. Ugly truths are hard to admit, but how ugly are they really when they feel like the first breath of fresh air in a year? I'll say it: I miss the times we lived through together, but I don't miss who I was with you. I'm doing better now. I'm doing better than I ever was and that's what you can't stand. And this is why we can never go back to what we once were.
