anyway. the haunted house is a kind of body, yes. but the body is also a kind of haunted house.
#š#gerard way voice baby youre a haunted house!#like seriously if you think about it. scars sickness trauma and all the individual ways our bodies grow to reflect the needs and behaviors#of us their inhabitants - for better and for worse maladaptive and congruous. all of these can be likened to a sort of haunting.

ive been thinking about the red string superstition recently and also sol bufo always and it makes me sick how uncannily caldwell tanner has made sol to perfectly target me personally
(+ cropped versions !)
#naddpod#ba2mia#ba2umia#solum bufo#swag daniels#calliope petrichor#calder kilde#alexandrite#posts by me dot com#okay..... SECRET TAGS RAMBLE!#so basically this superstition is like ... i think a chinese/buddhist/taoist superstition?#ive taken some creative liberties with it... but its mostly accurate to how its been told to me?#but of course theres lots of variations! some more abt bad luck; some say to tie it on the doorknob#etc etc ... lots a variations#i was also rlly interested in the .... weird illogic? of the thing?#like the red attracts and repels spirits at the same time#so thats something i was thinking about with too. red is assocuated with both swag and alexandrite. which to me was kinda reflecting like#i think what murph said . swags place in the wild is in a way. an extension of what he learned from the network#mothership s inextractivle from sol and swags lives. they will always be held doen by it. thats the spirit that will follow them forever#that they choose to hold on too! as much pain as it brought ... some of the experience was worth it#and anyway. theres somethingwrong w me that the minute someone brought up this superstition my brain went#'ohhh just like sol!' < needs to touch grass moment#but i CANT BELIEVE. CALDWELL DID THE RED STRING. AND ITS LITERALLY A MOURNING RITUAL#caldwell keeps accodentally makig that frog ASIAN. to MEEEE!!!!!!#but. anyway. idk. ive always hced sol kept the piece of yarn and it makes me kinda .... what if y let the malicious spirits follow you.#and haunt you. what if its the closest you can get to keeping the person still around#and sol and swag obviously have so much about homes .... so!#(ok. weve reached the pt where maybe nobodys reading? so confession is this is sort of a well. ive just been doodling this comic everyday#after a wake. and it was sort of inspired after realising i was even a bit sad about it maybe. so. idk its about sol but also?#i guess the projection doesnt end at him being asian. hehe. is what i mean. LOL. okay secret tags over . buried lore. dont look here folks)

lord huron is soooo good bc so many of their songs are like, Emotionally, Thematically, they're very moving and relatable love songs. but Literally, they're always about some paranormal Situation. and I know that both readings are 100 percent real
#thinking of When The Night Is Over#'on every window i pass / your reflection in the glass / slowly driving me insane' idr the exact wording#big fat mood about missing people but i also fully believe this dude is being haunted#lord huron#they're perfect for when I'm feeling sappy AND when I'm feeling romance-repulsed. it's like an optical illusion

It feels like getting pulled underwaterāthe sharp sideways tug, the slight drag of resistance, then falling, falling, till the waves close over his head. But Logan can breathe when he rights himself again, even if the light has a watery filter to it and the voices have a distant echo. // Sometimes Logan gets a glimpse of guys who've been long gone from the teal, clustered at the far end of the bench or sitting in the box across the ice. He heard Jason's voice in the hallway loud and clear, that infectious laugh. And he could have sworn he saw Raffi fucking Torres getting out of a car in the players' lot. Something tells him not to look up the rosters.
Commissioned @impmakesart to make a painting based on the Sharks' Cali Fin hype reel + the flip side by frausorge. Imp was amazing to work with and I could not be more emotional about this piece and so, so pleased with how it turned out!! šš»āāļøšš»āāļø Commission him here. Thank you Imp!
#as i am sure has been very obvious i have been incredibly unwell this year for a variety of reasons#and i read that fic right after my uncle died suddenly and unexpectedly so i was thinking a lot about hospice while i was reading it#and i was going to about 8 million sharkuda games per week to just not be at home bc everything has fallen apart there#(also for a variety of reasons. but there is a lot of intense grief over my stepsister's death involved)#so today having signed a lease on an apartment on the entire other side of the country to be closer to career stuff and#get a fresh start and a hopefully happier and more stable life (even if a huge move and a career change makes me nervous)#while also the first thing said to me is that another family member had passed this morning (expectedly) and a relative#who became very sick recently (unexpectedly) and who due to advanced age does not have a great prognosis#it became a uniquely precious gift to have this completed and sent to me by imp this afternoon.#the fic + the ensuing games of seeing that reel hit a very tender part of me that has dealt with death and instability my entire life#and it is amazing to see an image of logan's similar loss and instability so perfectly realized!!#his troubled face!! the way it feels both underwater and in another world!! the lights all around that could be anything!!#looking up at the indistinct faces of his teammates who could be so so many people at this point but who he misses nonetheless!!#also PLEASE zoom in on the mist - the texturing and color gradients are SO cool. and the reflection on his helmet is so sick#the color scheme in this is freaking amazing and i just love it all so much man!!!#anyway i don't have a concluding thought. i was going to make this into a puzzle (i'm back on my bullshit)#but i will probably get it printed and framed too#if any of u come visit me know. know that your chances of seeing haunted logan couture are non-zero#and he could be ANYWHERE#art#san jose sharks#logan couture

nothing hurts more than sandy confronting debbie about her abandonment issues, saying thereās always reasons people leave and that everyone in debbieās family is sick of her and wants to leave her too, and then debbie, looking more small and helpless than she has in several seasons, looking terrified and frozen in a little kid bed surrounded by toys.
#the look of absolute horror as sandy packs her bag will always haunt me#history repeats itself#like look at that stuffed bunny in debbieās lap#she looks like a little kid#i forgot who else posted about this- but whoever it was said that this frame is a complete reflection of debbieās character#and thatās so true#because sheās trying to act tough and older than she is and she yells shit like āfuck you!ā to deflect#but she is also deep down still that little girl who nobody wanted and everyone left#itās like something in her died when monica ran out on her and sheās been stuck feeling the same way since she was like 6#this scene is my roman empire i post about it so often#shameless#debbie gallagher#sandy milkovich#11x07

hey. we still donāt know who raghās dad is, do we.
but we donāt know the name of the co-conspirator, the one who took on the spyās tongue curse. we do know that the closest name kalina can say is raghās name.
do we think kalina knows who raghās dad is?
#d20 spoilers#fhjy spoilers#fh#fhjy#ragh barkrock#kalina#off the wall theory but like.#the way it would be a reflection of the āare you my dadā storyline in freshman year#and this season HAS been all about bits coming back to haunt the playersā¦ā¦

Thinking about my boy
#aono kun#i want to hold aono kun so badly i could die#ryuhei aono#to be clear normal aono is my boy more than dark aono (yada yada how different are they yeah but their vibes are distinct enough for me)#but this screenshot was too good to ignore and I can appreciate dark aono for being a great unique antagonist#just a little freak who is scheming things but not very good at hiding that#but real aono the real costar of my heart- i need him to be happy by the end just as much as yuri#I do think his conflict with his dark side is interesting in how it reflects his trauma and everything I learn about his life#up to the present day breaks my heart#he didn't get a chance to grow up and make up for his mistakes he never got to be more than his mother's child#so I will forgive a little murder and possession as a treat#unless WEIRD REDACTED TWIST ends with him hurting Yuri for real bc she is the other costar#but yeah sad little man haunted by his trauma and goes 'don't worry about it' as he tries to be the ideal romantic partner until it all#comes crashing down all around him is very seasalt-core

these are super, super informal and unorganized thoughts but god these panels are haunting me so:
itās interesting to finally be reading some of the issues that i assume influence general fanon perception of damian because thereās so much emphasis on the actions against tim (and like yeah fair, fucked up letās not move past that) but also thereās little moments sprinkled throughout that made me go āā¦this is a child. This is a whole child.ā
like idk man! These two pieces of dialogue are very striking to me! āSee? I can be useful!ā And āLook at me, Mother!ā. Maybe itās just because I work with kids but i read this and very clearly hear a childās voice! And sometimes i think because a lot of people get caught up in the āformalā way that damian speaks that people forget heās a kid. A very competent, highly trained kid. But heās a kid.
Again, i donāt think Damianās actions can be brushed off just because heās a kid, and (within the content of the Morrison run), has had some fucked up shit going on. But like - for fanon, Iām just begging folks to strike the balance between talking about Damian being held accountable for his actions and also understanding that in this point in time heās like maybe nine or ten-years-old. Idk! Iām tired of reading analysis and fan fiction that absolutely crucifies Damian and doesnāt try to find the nuance at all.
#Ramblings#damian wayne#batman comics#batman#batman and son#i donāt wanna give any flowers to Morrison because these are also the issues with the most insane depictions of talia iāve ever seen#But like. These moments are in here for a reason okay#I donāt have enough brain cells at the moment to talk about how there like. Might be some adultification bias somewhere in here#From the fandom side#Peace and love i am also a Tim Drake stan but why is he allowed to be a hurt child and not Damian#Examine that perhaps#And Iām so dead serious when you read or re-read damian Wayneās dialogue#When you read him in fics#Do you actually hear a childās voice. Im so dead serious#Iām just feeling particularly reflective on how we teach and treat children because Iām in the middle of an intense work week w my own kids#And so. These panels are haunting me#Also like if u made this far into the tags please feel free to correct me on Damianās age in this particular run#Cause Iāve been hopping around from run to run and so i get confused#Anyways please look at all these characters as humans#Im scared of fandom so Iām dropping this and running away bye#The formatting on this post is so inconsistent sorry if itās not readable

It is vital that the visions of Lestat that haunt Louis are seen first and foremost as shards of Louisā own fractured psyche. These scenes are emotive hallucinations, a visual representation of the way that Louis feels unable to escape his past, as well as how he directly draws on those experiences as he tries to move forward. It is only Lestat in the sense that Louis has cast blended memories of the man to perform the role of Louisā own doubt, misery and regret.
#a vision has appeared before me too and it is of a lot of misaimed discourse#there has already been a lot of chatter which frames it as though this is the actual character#and or Louis' remembrances of Lestat Ć la the first season#I am looking forward to analysing what each of these scenes represents about Louis' thoughts at that point in time#bringing us closer to Louis' conflicted emotions than he ever wanted the audience to get in the first season#but which can only be done by Louis almost completely disassociating from them#also this could be a good set up for Claudia to haunt Louis as a ghost#because he would mistakenly believe that she is likewise another reflection of his misery#the symbolism of which I'm sure would not escape Claudia#Louis de Pointe du Lac#Lestat de Lioncourt#Interview with the Vampire#Jagged Jottings

I donāt know what I want but it isnāt this. I donāt know what I want but it isnāt this. I donāt know what I want but it isnāt this.
#if I could I would invoke myself like a saint#I would throw my phone into the woods and find a stream to sit in#lie there until my skin is as damp as autumn leaves#and the soft of my eyes and the pits of my flesh have turned to moss#if I could go back in time I wonder if I would download this app again#or if I would let it be. remain untethered.#this is a self made self induced problem#I hate that I care about the amount of notes that i get on a post#I hate that I feel betrayed by people I do not know#and for what? and for why?#am I a girl or a haunted house or something or nothing or a hollow body filled with cotton and flies or a reflection or a martyr or anything#anything at all???

Deaf Republic - Ilya Kaminsky
[TEXT ID: āobserve this moment / how it convulsesā / the body of the boy lies on the asphalt / like a paperclip. / the body of the boy lies on the asphalt / like the body of a boy.]
#jason todd#cryptcites#last one i swear#but just always thinking about how no. he wasnt some martyr or sent saint. he was just a child who wanted his mom.#he was a little boy that died feeling alone and scared and betrayed and hurt. who died while still trying to save another.#he was a kid that believed in batman and that the good guys would win because being robin gave him magic.#the magic died and he was just a child laying dead on the pavement. he was a kid. he was just a boy.#and then the fact that his death is such a big significance that the narrative (and family) is just#constantly grieving the child while the man that lives is being haunted. by himself by the others by the narrative.#the feeling of 'im better off dead' but actually seeing that you were.#dying knowing you were loved vs living and doubting it every day. dying a boy hero and not recognizing your reflection as a man.#anyways :)#gn my little cryptids <33

Reflecting on the number of roleplay plotpoints on DSMP that have real life parallels now. I will genuinely carry this baffling media experience with me to the grave.
#I'm sure there's even more I don't know about#reflecting on c!Q and real Q today. No big insights just the haunted look of a Seer who watches prophecy and reality converge over and over

Abigail Baines - Dolorifuge
Bernadette You are my liberty I celebrate the day That you changed my history of life and death Will always lead you into love and regret But you have answers And I have the key for the door to Bernadette

#abigail baines#criminal case#criminal case mysteries of the past#moodboard#aesthetics#the passage of the song was quite fitting#inspired by a tumblr post regarding the song#that the memory of bernadette brings neither joy nor grief#this is what happens if you keep listening to your saved songs#abigail my beloved#i need to write about you#she haunts the narrative of ivory hill - capitol peak#may i elaborate on the fact that her murder was a reflection on what lawson had to witness#and then how her murder was the one that drove him to dedicate himself to justice#only for the same motivation to become obscure since his perspective on certain situations changed but the connection was still there#yet in a way he tries to assure himself perhaps that he does it for justice which was also for her#yapping atp so im just gonna shhh

Losing my mind about the Parker IIIII response to Parkerās fall today
#just ehdjdhksbdksbdkandksksh AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH#itās about the other selves. the destruction that another you can cause. the haunting of your past.#the hope that maybe you changed your fate and saved everyone with your end all be all and realizing that it didnāt even matter in the end.#the clear signs that things are going to be the same and itās an OMEN but the omen is just a reflection of YOU Iām losing it.#blaseball#roxy talks
