this is my favourite thing studio orange did with trigun

cuz like. YEAH! THEY ARE RLLY FUCKING SIMILAR!

Wolfwood's a kid who grew up too fast. he tries to hide behind the identity of "the punisher", a title that makes him sound like a horrible killing machine. the title screen disagrees with him though, knows deep down that kid is still inside there trying to look after his brothers and sisters. Wolfwood takes on "the punisher" in order for the eye of michael to leave the orphanage alone, so they don't have to go through what he did.

Nai is also a kid who grew up too fast. he doesn't hide behind an identity though, he embraces it. He believes that 'nai' is weak, 'millions knives' is strong and will be able to save his brother and sisters. The title screen agrees with him because it's shown how intent he is on following this path of mass destruction as he attacks and kills the workers just moments before. Knives IS Knives because of how the humans treat his siblings, because of witnessing the Last Run and Tesla. He doesn't want his brother and sisters to go through what they did.

#wolfwood is forced into his role while knives makes a conscious choice to go down that path thats basically what im trying to say #their reasoning though?? its literally the same #and you WILL listen to me because i love this little detail #trigun stampede #nicholas d wolfwood #millions knives #trigun analysis #character analysis #kind of?

I can't believe I only now thought 'what about 17' in Up that Mountain.

He gets one panicked crying message from Cody about how they lost Fox. 17 doesn't get more out of him, so he tries Ponds, because Ponds is not a fucking idiot. Ponds tells him that yes, they did, in fact, lose Fox, but...he isn't sure in what way. Fox is not on Coruscant and Thorn is now the Commander of the Guard, and Fox's name is not even in the GAR database anymore. So, uh, they assume that he is dead? But then there is the problem that they don't have the body, so they have double lost him. And something about this is making Ponds a little suspicious because if there is no body, is he actually dead? He has seen people get into worse situations and come out alive. None of the Guard seems like they are bothered either? They all liked Fox, so wouldn't they be?

17 is getting a headache. After the call he goes to get a drink or something, and Shaak Ti walks past him in the hallway. She smiles at him and then, for some reason, congratulates him, saying that he must be very proud and happy. What 17 is, is really fucking confused.

Meanwhile, on Alderaan, Fox wakes up in cold sweat. He thinks he has forgotten something really important.

#fox during breakfast the next morning: oh no #anyway 17 is really fucking done with these damn kids #he's not sure what he thinks about fox's choice of spouses at first but at the same time he is like hell yeah climb that social ladder #bail and breha are really nice to him bc this is the closest thing they will have for in-laws on fox's side #that are maybe a bit more personal than just having a million brother-in-laws #anyway 17 attends the wedding and is definitely not even a little bit emotional. and even if he is it doesn't show #since he is very busy keeping the rest of the party in check #sw #tcw #bail/breha/fox #alpha-17 #commander fox #commander ponds #commander cody #Up that Mountain #No order 66 au

Let him dad her!! (Patreon)

#Doodles #Adventure Time #Fionna and Cake #Fionna Campbell #Simon Petrikov #I cannot BeLieve that they didn't hug at any point - illegal. One million years dungeon #She slapped him (deservedly) but they didn't hug by the end??? I had to fix it #Jerry is my favourite episode so that at least was an easy choice lol #If anywhere would be a good place to cross that line it would be to comfort her! I can't imagine he'd initiate tho haha #She's just seeking comfort so badly <3 I know she's at least legally considered an adult but she's still a kid!#And Simon just keeps adopting kids lol #He's a good dad :) Not a perfect one but y'know? He helps where he can #Sometimes all we need is a parent figure giving you a hug and saying ''You know what? You're right - this sucks. But I see you''#Fionna's quite interesting 'cause like - she's meant to be a Finn but there are a lot of differences between her and quite a few Finns!#A lot of that is Because she lived in Simon's head for so long but I wonder - most Finns have decent support systems and she seems a little #Well not lacking Exactly but her fallbacks aren't as numerous - and she's not able to fulfill her life's purpose so she's just kinda wayward #Seeing that kind of Finn finally able to spread their wings but still have a lot of Finn trappings like naivety and impulsivity ♪#She's interesting! I quite like her :D Plus it's cool to see her natural EQ when she calls out Simon later in this episode unknowingly haha #I stopped at episode eight for a while but year her line about ''Then you got on the bus right? :D'' and him refuting it #Hmmm ♪ It was certainly interesting - I'm glad they addressed it :)#Plus she's fun to draw haha ♫ Her bunny ears! And the jacket she took from Martin </3 She has a fun design #And as always Simon is fun to draw :) Especially piecemeal here haha - just his mouth or just his eyes ♪ Cute :)

connor dewar/brandon duhaime :: 8k

I'll never be against an athlete choosing the job with the higher salary (hello, tons of regular people do that every day, I might do it myself one day if offered the chance) but I'll be honest, when the lesser offer is still a 7 numbers figure, I'm not going to think that that offer is a bad one.

#yes this is about fabio and deep down yes I understand his choice and no I don't think this is about just the money #of course it's also about pride (factory seat) and staying with the team he's won with and that he considers family #I get that!!!#and yes motogp riders should be paid more when you compare them with other racing series #but I think it's a little out of touch to not consider a salary in millions (besides all the brands deal) something already huge #esp when some moto2/moto3 riders have to PAY for their seat #and I don't even want to know about what's in wsbk riders' contracts #and I'm not saying this only about motorsport #the base contract for an nhl player is like 800k or something #even if he just plays 4th line/3rd pairing minutes #yes they can get injured and out of job in a snap of fingers #and I have read so many stories about former athletes going broke because they can't manage their money #(and yes sure maintaining a high lifestyle cost more and they spend more money but be real with me we're still talking millions here)

seeing so many dog shit takes on well. pretty much everything that i might stop using the for you page on twitter tbh

#which sucks because u Can get fun stuff from ppl u dont directly follow #and this is after i cleared out the interests....#like ill see a tweet referencing a dog shit take rightfully criticising it #and then unfortunately i will scroll down a little and see the dog shit take in question followed by approximately #one million tweets echoing the take. like..#initially i didnt use the fyp but when tweets from people i actually follow started failing to show up in the actual following tab #i had no choice but to move over 💀

i'm never entirely sure if the term "captain-class" includes lieutenants (personally, I think it's people who have or are close to having bankai, which would obviously include Ikkaku so whatever), but assuming he was allowed to pick lieutenants, imagine being Renji and being told to pick the three people you'd most want to have with you to go to another world and wait for a war to crack open

(alternatively, imagine an au where the advance team was abarai & kuchiki & hinamori & kira & hisagi, the shining stars of shin'ou class of 2066 + their favorite sempai)

#advance team arc #nerd squad #don't get me wrong the melancholy vibe of the advance team is everything to me #but part of the melancholy is who is here and who is not and who should be #the thing about bleach is that it's not just big tragedies it's a million little tragedies like this too. just tragedies all the way down #hinamori and hisagi would have been *so good* at being in the living world and befriending the karakura kids #kira maybe not so much but he's smart and good in a fight and WHO KNOWS maybe he has some advice on being depressed #i think kira and ishida would get along really well if they ever had the chance i will die on this hill #let renji run the advance team it was his team let him be great #let's be real hitsugaya probably would have preferred to be back in soul society doing two squads worth of paperwork anyway #maybe matsumoto can still be on the advance team reader's choice on that

zooming in desperately trying to figure out what fucking fountain pen aziraphale is using

#the thing is i'm generally pretty good at fountain pen identification BUT that presupposes being able to see the damn thing #and this is a little too blurry compared to a million generically black and gold pens #but then my choices are either ask neil gaiman or ask reddit. sigh.#good omens #mine

Apparently I can meet my goal of roughly 400,000 words in 6 months if I just somehow write at least 2,200 words a day ghbjh... Almost 2,500 today... huzzah...

#Definitely not going to be able to stick with it just due to like... being realistic about my energy levels and etc. ESPECIALLY as we #enter the Evil Summer and it becomes hot all the time. But... one can attempt.. at least...#I'm also a very slow writer since I tend to re-read and edit while I write. and only move onto the next section once what I'm writing #seems okay. Which is easy for visual novel type stuff. since ''sections'' of a conversation are more clearly marked (like if you #have a menu option with 5 different dialogue choices. finish the character's response for choice 1 before moving onto 2. etc.)#Especially since when I'm done with a whole quest I always follow it up by playing through it and picking every option and making sure it #actually all works okay and etc. So I am already going to see it all a second time. Then I can go back and reorder a few words or remove #certain sentences that don't sound natural when I read them out loud (I always read it all outloud to myself since it is... just peple #talking.. it should sound like natural dialogue in their voice. etc). But my ''first draft'' is kind of not as first drafty since I pause t #edit a lot as I go along. So it also takes longer probably than it would take other people who I think treat a first draft as more #of a loose guideline or something. AANYWAY...#80F in my bedroom right now again... huzzah... I did end up finishing and recording that sims build video before the heat wave (or is #it really a heat wave if it's just summer..?? lol) came in.. but now... augh.. the editing... plus the costume photos and all else... Much #to do as always.. Often such a long todo list.. a giant scroll hung upon the walls of the evil hermit wizard tower..#Anyhow.. I hope I can finish getting ready for bed early in time to reward myself with a game of tripeaks solitaire whilst I snack on #cheddar cheese and some of those preserved artichokes in a jar. hrgm... I actually have nasturtiums (ultimate best flower) on the #deck again this year but I had to move them all into a corner today because the leaves were getting burnt by the sun lol.. Also am now more #cautiously weaving through social media to ignore all dragon age news. NOT bc of spoilers (I actually love spoilers/literally never play #any game until there's full guides on it I can read to plan my entire playthrough based on knowing exactly what I want to happen lol + mods #and etc.) but just because I'm so busy with my ownprojects I simply do not have the brainspace to dedicate... Yes I love to think #about elves and fictional universe lore. but no.. I pretend I do not see it. Does not exist to me actually. ghgj.. OHH also took som #cool pictures of flowers in the garden section of a store and I wanted to do like.. character designs based on the colors of the flowers o #something. but that might just be another unnecessary project to add to the pile.. I want to commit to the daunting task of dyeing my #hair again some time.. hrm.. this is all of the updates I can think of. As if a bunch of random tags make up for never posting anything for #weeks on end lol.. alas.. too warm to think properly I suppose.. .. I neeeeeed a long lost relative to leave me some million dollar #estate in their will so I can have the resources to move to a colder climate or something ..augh #.. but for now.. I shall toil away in my little wizard tower trying to write 2000 something words a day whilst sweating and such ghbj

[cut for body-shaming, body image issues]

it must have been years ago when we were just like. watching one of those asian variety shows where actresses/singers/idols/media people were hitting a buzzer to answer trivia questions

and one actress/model who was Evidently more plus-sized than the other participants had answered 3 questions correctly in a row

and i very vividly remember a parent making an idle comment of 'oh, she has no choice but to be smart, because she can't fall back on being pretty'

and i opened my mouth and then i closed it because i didn't have the energy to even begin knowing where to begin with that statement

#possibly to delete later #qserasera storytime #alas my youth was made up of at least a million of such little statements #i don't kno u guys; having to make the mandated reigen-esque family call on schedule is not possibly #a wise choice mental health wise
