I've seen that "the immortal loses their loved one but not their loved one's family; what if the immortal stayed close, followed them down the generations?" post a dozen times, and I understand it's intended to be sweet---but every single time I see it, all I can think is that it's straight-up the beginning of a horror story.

#''what if your grandfather never aged or died just stayed there forever demanding an appreciative audience'' and other stories #that turn my blood to ice just to contemplate.#king lear but he's immortal. he will not just hover over regan and goneril he will loom over their children.#and their children's children. and cordelia's children when they slink back because three generations in and he owns a country now.#wait a few more generations and everyone is related to him somehow. he is all but a god.#......I think this is going to be my contribution to the internet going forward.#make an adorable post and I will pull a horror story out of it.#that adorable post about how plausibly you could introduce same-sex arranged marriages to a historical au?#actually it's a horror story about family control and property rights.#oh that's so sweet look an immortal love story - nope. also about family control and property rights.#what about - yeah still control. and property rights.#............................I'm having a great day why do you ask.#for my own purposes

Thinking about how Leo says he uses his jokes to cope and y’know, thinking harder on it I think it may very well be because of what else uses one-liners and puns and that type of humor.

Specifically, 80’s action movies and campy sci-fi. Even more specifically, the protagonists of these.

So I can imagine why, exactly, Leo leans toward this brand of humor. It’s directly linked to things he loves! But even more than that is why I think it’s used as a coping mechanism.

In these genres, these quips tend to be said by the winner - or, if not a winner, then someone who will stay alive. So there’s a confidence behind them, an assurance, almost, that even if things go wrong, things aren’t ever too serious. There’s no bad endings here! It’s all good fun, even if the stakes seem high.

Leo canonically has been known to steer his brothers away from the more brutal villains and toward more fun, lighthearted activities and not-so-dangerous criminals. So for Leo, these jokes definitely make things less heavy, make the situations they find themselves in less intense.

It’s kinda not just coping, but also can be seen as a form of escapism. A safety blanket. A way for Leo to defuse the tension of knowing just how dangerous their lives are and replace that with a levity which implies that things will be okay.

Unfortunately, levity alone does not alter reality.

#rottmnt #rise of the teenage mutant ninja turtles #rottmnt leo #rise leo #rottmnt headcanons #how pretentious can I sound when talking about a fictional turtle more at eight #anyway I always loved to think about Leo’s quick line about coping with humor #I don’t care how much people think it doesn’t REALLY matter it’s fun to play around with tbh #also love the idea that Leo’s sense of humor comes from the protags of his fav campy series #(+ from his confident and awesome big sis April)#like idk Leo’s special interests directly paving out how he presents himself both to others and in general is so interesting to me!!!#he is someone who KNOWS people and their quirks so 100% he caught on to that 80’s style of quippy one-liners-#-and associated that with safety and levity #even the villains of these genres who spout off quips tend to be the ones who survive!#Leo desperately fighting to keep the same lighthearted genre as 87 TMNT as the horrors of 2003 and 2012 loom on the horizon #and I think something important to note is that Leo KNOWS things are real #he is WELL AWARE of how dangerous things can get for them #but he copes anyway because it’s easier to deal with everything that way #bro just wants he and his family to be safe tbh

It’s just…so painful to watch Armand readily submit in order to obtain the love he so desperately craves. And while it’s most assuredly a manipulative tactic, it’s still one borne out of fear and desperation. He cannot lose this person he’s come to love and so will become whatever they want, do whatever they want just so they’ll stay with him. But it won’t be enough. No matter how much he acquiesces or seeks to control (himself, others, the environment), he won’t be able to make Louis stay with him in the perfect life, perfect self he built in the hopes of finally being loved. It will all crumble with Armand left alone in the rubble of what he created, the author of his own abandonment.

#this unfortunately hits way too close to home for me #let’s not even get into Claudia’s anger at never being enough #iwtv spoilers #interview with the vampire #armand #this is just me speaking from personal experience…but there is definite manipulation at play here from Armand #and I don’t necessarily mean that pejoratively- when you’re desperate for people to like/love you you’ll become whatever they want #or whatever you think they’d want and you give it to them so they’ll want to keep you around #I’ve done it so often with the people in my life- and make no mistake it’s also a survival tactic #you give someone what they want they won’t hurt you #and when that’s how you survive for years and years it becomes the default method of interacting with others #even with normal people who genuinely mean you no harm you revert to that people pleasing mode #as a means of control both external and internal #this is what i see armand doing- his way of surviving that he’s never truly broken out of #armand ceding coven control to Louis and curating the Dubai penthouse for Louis are part of the same pattern of behavior #and even tho it’s ultimately harmful and will only end badly for armand and Louis’ relationship #idk if armand knows how to not exist that way with someone he loves/desires #all of this also ties into louis and daniel #because of course Armand will lose it over Louis finding connection and interest with someone else aside from him #someone HUMAN no less #and I can see Armand taking out his anger on Daniel as a way of expressing his own frustration at still not being enough for Louis #breaking daniel’s mind in a desperate attempt to understand why this human could reach Louis in ways he couldn’t #not saying any of this to excuse Armand and his behavior obviously (I’m very upset and worried over the trial looming on the horizon)#but I do understand this impulse and how you’ll throw ANYONE under the bus in order to preserve your place with loved ones #it’s all horrifying but unfortunately I empathize #like even if Louis is right to walk out on him when he learns/remembers the truth of what happened to Claudia #I’ll probably still find myself saddened by Armand’s fate because I’ve absolutely been there myself #it’s a tragedy of his own making- his fear and desperation birthing manipulative and controlling behaviors #that ultimately result in your own abandonment #god this fucking show

being obsessed with yakumo is a job and baby i’ve never called in a sick day!!!!!

#nu carnival #yakumo ♡#you could not pay me to ramble this extensively about anything else #but yakumo’s trauma?? his childhood?? his growth?? his fears and insecurities and how they affect his current relationships??#his abandonment issues and jealousy and darker desires???#and how he’s so scared he’ll hurt others even though it’s far more likely he’ll be the one getting hurt??#how he’s not violent or scary at all but after years and years he’s been conditioned to think he is??#the significance of his relationship with eiden??#the significance of his ‘platonic’ relationships with the other clan members??#how important his grandparents were in raising him??#how his desperate want to hide his serpentine features and be ‘normal’ is a perfect allegory for autism??#the fact that he’s been treated horribly in the past and yet still chooses every day to be kind??#how he probably definitely has bpd??#the burden he has to carry just because of who his ancestor is??#the fact that it almost seems like what he does doesn’t matter because the actions of his ancestor will always be looming over him??#how he’s been hurt so many times both physically and emotionally and yet his heart is still so open to loving others??#how he has a tendency to push down his traumatic memories until he thinks they no longer affect him??#and how even when he’s suffering because of that trauma he would still rather suffer alone than bother someone and tell them??#how slowly but surely he’s unlearning all of the harmful ideas burned into him since his was a child??#and how he’s learning that people do love and care about him and he’s not a burden and he deserves love and care??#and that the serpentine traits he tries so desperately to hide aren’t as disgusting as he was meant to believe??#that his dark desires don’t define or control him and that it’s okay that he has them??#that just because he has them at all doesn’t make him a bad person???#why he makes soup for his loved ones so much!!!! yes that is important actually #i will sit and write about that for hours and hours for FREE #my favourite fictional character of all time he’s so so real #he’s so well written and his trauma and growth are handled with such care and consideration

some postgame doodles for pride month

#martzipan #komahina #hajime hinata #nagito komaeda #domestic kmhn likers pspspsps cmere #i never draw just fluff/domestic things bc i get too in my feelings lmao. this one was no exception #i had to take a break midway through bc i got sappy. IT'S OK THO we got it done :3 #neways these tie into some headcanons of mine so i'm gonna share 'em here #mainly i hc them having little ways where they just look out for each other #komaeda is usually the only one who can convince hinata to take a goddamn break without having to forcefully drag him away from his work #bc hinata does NOT take enough breaks. and he does not listen to reason #until there is a komaeda who is tired and can't go to sleep without his human teddy bear :((( can't let him go to bed aloneeee #n i think hinata just. casually feeds komaeda ALL the time #bc he won't eat enough on his own. and if you offer him food he'll be inclined to see it as a nicety and try to reject it #but if you just. Put Food In Front Of His Mouth. he'll eat it #it's kind of a reflex like komaeda doesn't realize he's being fed most of the time #they take care of each other bc they won't take care of themselves otherwise lmao. it's a little dysfunctional but they're trying #i think once they've recovered enough to be able to just enjoy each other's company they get REALLY really giggly #they have a lot of teenage/young adult love stuff to catch up on and since they didn't really have a puppy love phase. they laugh a lot #they'll try to do something tender or sweet but then one of them will start to laugh. and then it's not long before the other breaks #komaeda usually breaks first. bc he's always in awe of just how happy he is. bc he never thought he COULD be this happy #not without hell looming just over the horizon anyways #when hinata breaks first it's bc he's thinking of how much they've both been through and put each other through #and he's just sort of like 'how the fuck did we end up here'#(btw komaeda snorts when he's trying not to laugh. this is just fact trust me)#OH AND I HAVE MANY HEADCANONS ABT THEIR SLEEP STUFFS #as stated hinata runs hot and komaeda runs cold. but ALSO #hinata's a sprawler. komaeda gets Clingy. it works out for them tho #if komaeda doesn't have hinata to hold like a body pillow he'll curl into the tightest little ball. it gives him back pain lmao #oh and yes. they absolutely wake up with their legs incredibly tangled together

TopMew: Sex is a pawn in a game

BostonNick: Sex is a tool for discovery, freedom, self-love, and healing

SandRay: Sex is an expression of gratitude, unconditional love, and commitment

#in this essay I will...#only friends the series #only friends #fuck it ill post it who cares come at me i welcome critique #topmew #bostonnick #sandray #ofts #i think bostonnick also has kinda unconditional love - but like idk how to say it #what i mean is like when ray fucks over sand all he has to say is sorry and sand moves on and vice versa they cant stay mad #but with Boston and Nick the unconditional love and forgiveness so far has mainly come from Nick - Boston is a tougher nut to crack #but it doesnt mean hes not capable of it we just havent seen it yet #honestly can't wait to see it #there is also the looming condition of him leaving

who up seeing their disorder in a fictional character but feel like its not their place to put a name on it

#id have to be waterboarded before i can talk abt how i see a lot of my adhd and personality in mitsumi iwakura let alone post it #idk how to talk abt this without feeling like im talking over or invalidating ppls experiences relating with a character #someone was talking abt how ppl tie laios' autism to special interest and social difficulties but not much else which kinda flattens it #and then went into a respectful in depth analysis of other autistic behaviour that laios exhibits and it wasnt phrased meanly #its fascinating and important to me to hear someone explain a little bit abt traits that they recognized and often go overlooked #because it does help me learn more about it. but i think thats also where hesitancy kicks in when it comes to depicting it accurately #like i have adhd and some of my adhd symptoms overlap with autism (time blindness and pattern seeking behaviour) but that only means #it feels familiar to me even without having autism. on top of that traits arent always cleanly determined as being /caused/ by #a disorder. to understand my environment i compare it to something unrelated but similar to make it more familiar and for the longest time #i thought that was a personality thing and not an information processing thing since i loved playing pretend in my head as a kid #so if you make a character who experiences that hoping to reach people that also experience that and tell them its not weird or #smth youre making up like. thats the goal. ppl who dont get it arent expected to it just means it doesnt cater to them but it helps them #become familiar to it yk? since i dont have autism myself i dont feel confident i can depict it properly or explain it in my own words #but that doesnt mean im trying to dismiss it or try and cut it out completely.. ill just leave the floor open to someone who /can/#a lot of issues around fanon depictions are when smth is baselessly popularized or a characters personality and behavior is flattened #especially to fit them into a trending meme. its harmless and its supposed to be for fun but it gets tricky when you drag things that #need to be carefully explained beforehand or else it gets lost in translation. like that tweet abt 'hyperfixating' on cooking pasta #once it becomes popular language usually the original meaning is left out for the sake of simplifying it for everyone that when it #circles back theres a sort of hesitancy like. am i using it the way it was intended or am i unknowingly using the popularized version of it #actually thats probably why i felt wrongfooted during diagnosis bc it felt like i was misusing the words i heard to describe what i felt #i /know/ i see a lot of myself in mitsumi because our minds are always somewhere else and we tend to put good faith first and for me #that personal connection is enough. but idk it feels like its always gonna have to be 'palatable' first before i can talk abt it openly #mad respect to writers and creators who stick to their story even if theres the looming fear of ppl misinterpreting it and letting them #have it.. its been almost 2 weeks and i am so close to deleting that m3 dunmeshi drawing bc ppl keep saying chilchuck wouldnt have 200 HP #IT LITERALLY SAYS I MADE IT WHILE WATCHING EP 1. I USED EARTHBOUND LOGIC AND I WASNT EVEN TAKING IT SERIOUSLY CHILL #yapping

ok, so i just listened to "loom" by imagine dragons, and i'm sorry but i only like three and a half song

#i get it it's experimental but honestly this album is so weird #like first of all why does it only have nine songs?#second of all first half of this album is a trash #i'm sorry but that's how i feel #and they used to be my favourite band but i just have to be honest i don't like the new sound #first song that i actually genuinely liked was in your corner #then gods don't pray because dan's voice sounds really amazing in this one and i love the production #and don't forget me made me cry #especially the “i miss you when you're gone so i wrote you one last song”#we all know who this is about #fire in these hills is also good when it comes to the lyrics and i love the voice crack when he sings “i don't think that i'm strong enough”#and i love the bridge because the production reminds me so much of their old songs #BUT overall i don't like production on this track that much that's why i said previously that i only liked three and a half song #idk #i know nobody asked for this but i wanted to write it anyway so #sorry for being a hater #they used to be my whole world but #things change i guess #imagine dragons #loom #but sincerely can you hear me?*

yea

#i really want him to hate her #as much as i adore wanders characted and how consistent his values are . i also love the idea of dominator being the only thing in like #at least hundreds of years to make that falter. before she even does anything he’s already uncomfortable #this is. the type of protag & villain dynamic i love the most #odieart #ALSO side rant #woy season 2 is feeding me SO good rn because Let me Tell you. it is seriously my favourite thing when shows are in a state where there is-#-some huge looming almost omnipresent threat that’s been introduced/established but the show just continues semi-normally anyway except with #the threat of whatever the thing is hanging over the characters’ heads and the show like absentmindedly mentioning the effects #and #developments of the threat. and dude oh my God in woys case of this. THE LIKE CONSTANT REMINDERS THAT THERES FEW PLANETS LEFT BC DOMINATOR #HAS ALMOST DESTROYED THEM ALL?? INCREDIBLE. THE WAY AN ENTIRE EPISODE IS CENTERED AROUND KEEPING ONE PLANET SAFE AND SACRED FROM HER #AND HOW SYLVIA LIKE SORT-OF ATTEMPTS TO FLEE TOO. ITS SOOOOUGUUGUHHHH I LOVE THIS FUCKING SHOW #I love woy.

I think Rhys would be sooooo much more interesting if his dad were still alive

#anti rhysand #he’s like a little kid playing pretend trying to be his dad but not understanding what made him that way #so all he can replicate is the cold aloofness and cruelty that he remembers from his childhood #and the best part is that even this is all alleged!! it’s speculation because we don’t know if Rhys’ memory of his father is soured by his #death and the assumed centuries since then or if this unnamed man is actually that bad #I think it would add a really interesting layer to fey/sands relationship too #cause what does his father see?? is he seeing history repeating itself or a train wreck in the making??#would it lead to self reflection on his relationship with rhysands mother and how the mate bond is both a blessing and a curse??#giving you the one person in the whole world who could understand and love you at the most intrinsic level but simultaneously blinding you #to all their worst traits and habits. most likely not because sjm sucks but like just imagine if we had rhysands dad still there as #a monument to what happens with dead mates and bad bonds looming over fey/sand #gold talks.tag

Y’all ain’t talking enough about the cricket conscious. Looking for any spark of humanity in Jack Horner, losing his goddamn mind, his whole perspective in life shattering. We don’t get enough truest chaotically evil villains these days and having this one be an absolute stinker voice by John Mulaney is peak comedy to me.

…I say this and then use the tags to talk about all the other incredible things about the movie and I get it actually there’s so much good to process…

#puss in boots #I could write an essay on how instead of a few characters following a complicated plot this movie took many complex characters following a #simpler plot and the dynamics there in were so intriguing and captivating #like you follow the main protagonist with his own internal conflicts joined by a slightly antagonist mutual turned ally #along with a sympathetic family of antagonists that are fun and interesting as is but then they also go through a personal arc #a villainous side antagonist that’s just good evil fun #and a looming haunting threat of an antagonist that doesn’t overstay its welcome but never leaves your mind #just as death is for every one of us #always there in the back of your mind waiting to catch up with you #FUCK THHS MOVIE IS GOOD AND IM IN LOVE WITH GOLDI
