Katniss is such an unreliable narrator. She says "Then something unexpected happens. At least, I don't expect it because I don't think of District 12 as a place that cares about me" girl you deliver strawberries to the Mayor, you hunt and trade for the district, when you fell at Prim being chosen someone caught you, when you went to Prim people parted for you, when you volunteered EVERYONE stopped. Idk how to tell you but I think you're a pillar of the community.
#katniss everdeen#the hunger games trilogy#the hunger games#primrose everdeen#hunger games#batcavescolony reads the hunger games#suzanne collins#'now it seems i have become someone precious' NOW? GIRL BFFR you're their hunter girl#and this isn't negative just bffr girl#your WHOLE DISTRICT did the three finger salute that you yourself says means admiration thanks and goodbye to someone you love and on top is#old a rarely used. your WHOLE DISTRICT decided in that moment that they needed to bring back this sign of respect for YOU#...................................................................#idk why some people are thinking i mean this as negative i don't she is unreliable but its not intentional. like when Peeta heart stoped in#CF she doesn't know what Finnick is doing at first cus she doesn't know off the top of her head what cpr is. she also thinks Peeta after the#reaping is acting for the cameras. he isnt we dind out later his mom basically told him Katniss was gonna win and he would die. obviously#shes not doing it on purpose shes just for lack of better words uneducated? as in she doesn't know everything shes not omnipotent#so when Plutarch (? second games guy) shows her his mokingjay hiden watch shes like *wtf that's weird?* then the people traveling to#district 13 show her the mockingjay cookie and explains it and she then goes on the difference between his watch and their cookie#and why does eveyone act as if district 12 is as bad as the capital? they CANT help Katniss and Prim in the way you want. they cant give#them food. none of them have any! and im not putting iton Katniss but they hid they needed food so they could stay together. it sounds like#some of you are in this our world mentally of what people do after a loved one dies (brings food constantly checks on them etc) district 12#cant do that. they dont have food and they're all suffering. you cant give someone food when you have none to give. then theirs the fact#that peeta DID help. Peeta buring the bread and tossing some to her then taking a beating from his mom is a HUGE thing in the books.#he used his resources to help her like you all said someone should.#district 12 DID (rip) care about Katniss before the hunger games. why do you think she was allowed to hunt? or how her trades were good#these are the little ways 12 can shows Katniss they love her. but again Katniss doesn't see this and YES its because she had ptsd before the#hunger games as well. i swear some of you make it seem like d12 was all living a life of luxury and glaring down at Katniss.#other things that show Katniss is in hight standing with at least her people of d12 is her dad was known enough through d12 for peeta dad to#comment on his singing along with his commenting on her mom. also her mom is a healer in the community. yeah her parents arnt the top but#of d12 but they are/were definitely high staning in the Seam.

I imagined a couple of OCs that are loosely based on Aziraphale and Crowley, primarily keeping the “angel and demon raise the Antichrist”. The demon, Levi, is the Antichrist’s nanny who ultimately loves children and confidently raises the demonic spawn. Sure, the kid is weird, but would any hell child be totally normal? Meanwhile, Angie also loves kids, but has only cared for them for limited amounts of time and from a distance for the past few hundred years. She was a very loving babysitter, many centuries ago… but…
Angie is, of course, a bit more nervous. Since she has never been in Hell and interacted with demon spawn children, she is uncertain as to whether or not she should be concerned about the child’s behaviors. Honestly, what would she do without Levi’s assurance?
Those are my ideas thus far, let me know what you think!
A Thought I Had. An Idea, Even.
I was thinking about Good Omens, as one does, and I realized that the handful of scenes in which Aziraphale and Crowley raise the Antichrist could be its own show. I am not saying it should have been expanded upon in the book or the TV series, I’m not even saying there should be a spin off about raising Warlock. All I am saying is, this would be a great concept for a show. Imagine, an entire comedy show about an angel and a demon raising the Antichrist.

It's crazy how Dungeon Meshi's manga can feel more cinematic and emotional than the anime to me, even when they're practically the same. Compared to the anime, this moment is such a heartbreaking gut-drop. The way Kui uses negative space and flat compositions to create a sense of horrific stillness is so key.
The way the text (Senshi's monologue) is sequestered to an empty corner of a panel or huddled away from the edge of its text box is not only a great way of showing Senshi's headspace (fearful, isolated, dissociating), but creates a visual representation of pause, as if you hold your breathe after each line. The first panel puts us directly in Senshi's perspective too (compared to in the anime, which puts us as an outside observer over Senshi's shoulder). The detail of the door and bricks so effectively implies that he stared at it for so long, waiting and hoping, that its image is burned in his memory. The wood grain, the brick arch, the number of rivets. The lack of dialogue in the second panel shows a moment of realization too –– "he's dead" (also a great example of the Kuleshov effect). And it's that pause that creates a beat and sets a great rhythm to his headspace, like a music rest: "He never came back." (oh god.) "I'm all alone." Finally, the third panel's negative space, cropping Senshi, shows how truly alone he feels. Without his family, the world ceases to exists. Under shock, he traps himself in a 1-foot radius, too scared to even perceive a world outside its boundaries; a world that can hurt him, kill him, make him disappear with it. There is only his body, the stone beneath his feet and against his back, his thoughts, and that awful bowl of soup.
Even though they're a series of flat images, there's an implicit reading of silence in Senshi's realization and horror. Kui influences your experience to slow down and take your time.
Compare this to the anime, which fills every shot with dialogue. The pacing is fast; we never get to sit in silence like we do with the manga. The horizontal frame allowed the boarders to add Senshi, turning the composition into an over-the-shoulder shot, which takes us out of Senshi's POV. They also added a zoom-out in shot one, which adds unnecessary energy to a very somber scene. The tightening on Senshi as a close-up reaction shot also dulls the moment. In the original panel, Senshi stares ahead at the empty space to his left as a shadow surrounds his mind. It not only shows how Senshi's senses are dulling and his world is shrinking (setting up panel three), but shows how terrified Senshi is of what's in front of him, how the air itself becomes pitch black and opaque, how Senshi is surrendering himself to fear. The pacing is understandable and necessary; this episode packed a lot of story content together. It's just a shame because it really (imo) deflated one of the most nauseating moments in Dungeon Meshi.

#severance#severance spoilers#mark s#helena eagan#markhelena#ahahhahahhghj this show. oh my god. oh my god!!!#mark and helly had already gotten me so bad but this last ep broke my brain. they are doing m/f previously thought impossible on this show#I DIDNT LIKE WHO I WAS ON THE OUTSIDE. I WAS ASHAMED!!!!!!!#was talking about this on my twitter but helena eagan has extremely strong failchild energy to me. this is just speculation#but i got the impression from s1 that her being severed was both a last chance to like. prove her worth to her family and get in line-#and comparable to women that were lobotomized by their rich families in the 20th century. girl you are too strong willed-#and difficult to control so we are going to do this.#as if all of that wasnt backfiring enough now our girl is blowing the whole family operation because she just HAAAD to jump the bones-#of the first person to give [LITERALLY NOT EVEN HER] positive attention.#incredible. i need helly back like i need oxygen but they could NEVER make me hate you helena eagan.#i hope she keeps being her insane self and also more and more comical things keep happening to her. they should drop a piano on her next#anyway these tags are long enough as it is but crazy how well the lyrics to the song i linked match her... just for the record....#im thinking abt that album all the time bc its one of my favorites but the orange/black scenes from this ep sent me into overdrive#they have different colors of blood. they have power like you never could :-))#art tag

the way spamton talked about tenna really does paint such an effective picture of their relationship because the entire time i was playing chapter 3 i kept telling my friend “i don’t trust him. spamton said he’s bad so i don’t trust him. he’s going to be evil” only to find out that no……they’re both trapped in limbo and neither of them can heal. they hold mutual disdain for each other despite neither of them being particularly atrocious people. because whether it’s a result of what happened to them being potentially staged or just their own hatred festering as the need to pin the blame and accountability on anyone but themselves (or both), we’re clearly NOT getting the full story from either side

I always make an effort to look at paranatural through the ~2013 era lens it was conceptualized from, back when it was at it’s most subversive, in tandem alongside its contemporary lens. Because thats what Paranatural was, for those who aren’t aware — paranatural played off of & against the common shonen & cartoon tropes and character expectations that were prevalent in that age: the wise and just mentor, the prejudiced bully, the action girl implemented to pushback against sexism + the subversion of the action girl, the excited rare skilled selfless battleprone protagonist, etc.
most new fans will likely see the comic and take it at face value — why shouldn’t they? — when in reality there’s so much more of a dialogue happening underneath the hood. There is so much underlying, forgotten context that makes paranatural, paranatural
#paranatural#i would give like anything to talk to a pnat fan who was around 18 in 2013 and knew all of this from the get-go#i’ve taught myself it through independent research and studying media trends of that period (plus being a fan circ 2015 but i was on the#younger side.) now everyone in the fandom seems to be younger than me. so if i dont know it then they DEFINITELY dont know it#by which i mean ‘if im not old enough to remember then they definitely arent’#but yeah thats why pnat - especially early pnat - is chock full of so many anime gags and references. like goku dying so much.#whereas now those references have become more…. integrated into the text itself rather than a callback or satirization#thise fans would be in their 30s-ish now and Im not sure how id find them in today’s internet climate. but i so badly want to understand#paranatural as it was conceived as instead of only what it has become#i want a comprehensive understanding#analysis#this is also kind of why i dont think that interpreting pnat through a 2020-2025 cultural lens is going to……. recognize the comic as well#like yeah the audience does have more information about the plot and characters and world and such. but the contexts they were created#within are more or less gone. or theyve shifted to something completely different. the shows that zack created pnat around aren’t popular#in the same way that they were back then; so instead of refracting against those stories in a dialogue people - usually new fans - take the#comic as it is

Starting off the new year with I think the most background heavy piece I've ever made! I think Rainwings and Nightwings would celebrate their traditional holidays together after the events of The brightest night. So this drawing is meant to show their cultures kind of blending together during a very joyful time. I remember talking about this concept with someone on tumblr a year ago but when I went back through my posts I couldn't for the life of me find it - so if your reading this, I remember you and this drawing stems from that conversation so thank you!

elia martell character of all time because she was playing the game of thrones AND WINNING — survived aerys, set up an alternate court on dragonstone, universally beloved even by most of robert’s anti-targ regime, was probably at least angling to get rid of aerys — but the literal song of ice and fire was being written around her and well. you can’t outrun your inevitable doom.
like. that’s elia’s tragedy, and what makes me so insane about her. she was in the wrong story. she was playing the game of court politics but ended up yoked to 300 years of targaryen collapse and dynastic rot instead. there’s nothing i love more than characters doing their best with the pieces they can see on the board, while the fact slowly dawns on them that the board is in the process of being swallowed by an eldritch monster.

Barok the physically affectionate my beloved
#ace attorney#the great ace attorney#barok van zieks#albert harebrayne#benbaro#tgaa#dgs#my art#god I just…love Barok acting ways you wouldn’t expect. I love emotionally deprived Barok who doesn’t realize how much he missed genuine -#human interaction and love so he once he has someone who can give that to him he can’t stop himself from holding them in the most gentle yet#yearning way possible.#I want him to hold and be held#I want him to keep that stupid doomed look on his face but his heart be so filled with life and love and show it through his actions#I want Barok to be continue being the man he’s become but also the man he was. an equilibrium. a balance#I want this man to cave and give in to the horrors again but this time have people by his side. and for him to trust those people. let them-#help and comfort and support him. I want him to feel LOVED#we’re already told that Barok has a different side to him other then the ‘reaper’ and I want to see more of it#okay this started off bc I wanted to draw silly doodles of Barok carrying Albert but then I started thinking about Barok showing#physical affection and I WENT OFF THE WALLS#this is how I know BenBaro is a TOP TIER ship bc I simply love all interpretations. like the ones where either one or both of them don’t-#like physical touch and rather show their love with words/actions and show their appreciation simply by being IS SO GOOD!!!#they are just so good!!! the game shows just enough and not enough to were you can really be versatile with your interpretations and it work#also maybe I’m touch starved?

Riz Gukgak and his bloody hands
SUCH a metal visual and motif. Kalina, Baron, they tease him for it, they twist it into one of his worst qualities, just as they belittle that he his heart, leverage his fear that he cannot love anyone enough.
Riz Gukgak loves. He will claw himself to shreds on love. He will dig through reality, lacerating himself on crystal, just to help his childhood friend. He will hiss at the devil, he will bite out eyes, he will do anything to help his friends feel safe. He will attempt to eat an entire dragon. Out of love for a father he barely knew.
"That’s you saying “I love you” to the people who matter to you the most."

puppy fever, might be terminal
#trojs 5 which means we're 1 yr out from my apparent cycle of a dog every 6 years#its not that i dont have enough on my hands and not like i do so much with them i need another one but i#find myself borrowing a spitz to hike with to get the feeling of 3 and with how#troj has turned out it would be... very viable#on one hand she's stupidly well behaved and no effort at all to keep#but also on the other hand shes... stupidly well behaved and not the firecracker i was counting on#(my bad for expecting every sheltie to be a Sparty)#i think she'd actually benefit from having a younger dog around as well#Sparty is doing great but has a very different approach to life and energy conservation now than she did 3-4 years ago#flat out sprints to bite the trojbutt isn't top of her mind 24/7 anymore which is a little sad for troj#troj and melis jive well in that regard but theyre on slightly different planets and while troj has 0 real herding drive she is#VERY sheepdog in her play and social behaviour#ofc the question always becomes 'why do you think you NEED another dog' and i dont. and its not for troj no#but i want one. and i can handle one. and i think another sheltie would be a benefit to our household#ofc: i had planned to have a trojling by now. and if i intend to keep showing it would make sense to get one soonish#that could enter open class just as troj goes to veteran#and ive still sunk enough time (almost 17 years now) into this breed to want to take more involved steps. i still want to breed and show em#eventually#but living situation still needs to change and im honestly. still so disappointed at trojlings falling through im not entirely sure#what the next step should be#a blue or maybe pref tric little bitch from allrounder lines probably. somehow.
