#I FELL FOR YOU HARD BOY

First Kanaphan’s Characters | Yok (Not Me) VS Akk (The Eclipse)

I fell in love with this boy at first sight. I watched him firstly as Yok, who is just oozing charisma, free-spirited, cheeky, feisty, with that huge, infectious, beaming smile. First made this role feel so delightfully easy and natural.

To go from that to Akk, who is rigid, defensive, so tightly wound, burdened and restrained in his vulnerability. Who even when he cries, looks like he’s trying to hold it in. Whose eyes always look like they’re crying out for relief from some unspeakable burden.

I know this is what actors do, but can I stress how different these two characters are and how well First embodied each of them?? I am beyond excited to watch his performance in Only Friends, and to be graced with another facet to First’s acting talents. He’s one to watch folks.

there's something so tragic about mumbo angst in hmtb.

back in chapter 11 he expresses that he feels useless and wants to be able to help, but has no clue how. he doesn't feel like enough. he's not enough for grian, not anymore, not like he used to.

and it's scar. it's scar who reassures him that mumbo is enough. that things will be a-okay.

it's scar who says that he needs mumbo now, and that grian will need mumbo again later, once his fever makes him less dazed.

"mumbo. listen to me, okay? you're his best friend and even if maybe he's a bit confused now, he will need you there when he gets out of it."

something about. how in a way it was true. (chapter 20)

and in another way it crumbled completely. (and still is crumbling-) (i'm actively working on it crumbling-)

there's so much more scattered around there though, in those first chapters. because despite the threats, that whole "if anything happens to grian on your watch, i will kill you", scar also relies on and trusts mumbo a lot there, at the start. (before he slips too far into his fragmented mind.)

he sees him more as a friend than not. he leaves grian alone with him, he gets mumbo to shield and then carry grian out in that flower meadow, he lets mumbo curl up with them in their cuddle piles, grian's wings slung over them. he reassures mumbo and checks up on him whenever it's clear mumbo's not faring well. he relies on him to go out on supply runs, bringing back potions and food they so very much need. heck, scar even asks for his help with dismantling the trap, letting mumbo see him at one of his more vulnerable moments. and at the end of it, scar thanks him. in chapter 19. there's that bit of appreciation, spoken softly, then turned into familial jest that tastes of comfort.

mumbo does so many things right. he tries his best, even if he doesn't always know what to do, and even if he often feels like his efforts are not enough to make a difference. (they were.) (it all mattered.) he cares, and is worried, and… he is there for them.

and yet.

look at how things turned out. look at this mess.

he's now kind of afraid of scar (and he will be more. working on it <3) and he feels like grian is slipping out of reach. like he's no longer allowed close, even though his heart desperately aches for it. he feels like there's some irreparable fracture that's happened at his hands and he doesn't know how to mend it. he's losing closeness to people that really matter to him and he can't even really comprehend why it is happening, and he's terrified.

i'm so sad for him.

i just came across ai covers on youtube and people are requesting songs in the comments instead of getting enraged and i am further losing hope in humanity and turning to misanthropy

It’s so fucked that the main source of unease I felt building up over the past several months was me feeling pressured to perform femininity to be seen as desirable to other people. It was never ever said said out loud in that space but I could FEEL it and I never knew until it was pointed out to me.

Huntlow Week 2022 Day 1: Palismen/Date

Surprise! I like The Owl House. I don't think I've talked about it before now, but I do. And after the season 3 premier, I fell into a new ship that I cannot escape. And when I found out about the Huntlow week going on, I decided...Why not? It gives me some exercise to help get me back into the swing of drawing after the recent holiday exhaustion and as I gear up for some time off next week to work on other stuff.

Wouldn't be a challenge I take a part in if I wasn't horrifically late, of course, but I had to work and didn't have a ton of time. I also liked the idea of using the few ink pens I have to do a little of that as well. So ye!

Hmmm yall know what’s Deeply Unfortunate for both involved parties in a pairing?

When something Bad happens to one of them, and the other is already in too bad of shape themselves to take care of them like they want to. So they’re having to watch someone else do what should be THEIR job and desperately wanting to hold them but they Physically Cannot >:)

Yep it’s today’s chapter of ITTG, And If I Ever Get It Right
