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.

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 🙂‍↕️

It'll never not be funny to me that Reeve went from Office Mook to GODDAMN WIZARD in the FF7 timeline thanks to Dirge of Cerberus being the (so far) last titled entry in the timeline (not counting the post epilogue bits with Nanaki).

Why are you a wizard now? WHY ARE YOU A WIZARD, REEVE? NO ONE ELSE wears stuff like that UNLESS they're this LITERAL BASTARD and EVEN HE DOESN'T GO THAT FAR.

I know everyone already knew this—I did too—but I never really let it sink in. Sangwoo killed himself the exact same way he killed Sae-byeok. That’s so fucking poetic....and also tragic?. It’s been echoing in my head ever since.

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

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.

What a week, huh? (It's still Wednesday).

Been doing more design work lately, and praying that my laptop can still run Inkscape. Work news also been keeping me at the ready, that I hope would have more confirmation some time this week.

Studying has been slow, my period had drained me to the point it urged me to a nap everytime I clocked out. But, I keep my Mondly and Duolingo streak up, as well as some listening immersion with 31 Minutos or Hoy Hablamos podcast. Also been trying Substack for more reading digest.

Pictured: throwback to when I was actively art journaling, especially in my last terms of college to distract myself from the Google Docs and Zoom anxieties. Materials from old magazines, brochures, mindless memo scribblings, marker and watercolor paint.
