Forgiven & Free: Leaving Guilt Behind
Have you ever felt the heavy weight of guilt bearing down on your soul, even after confessing your sins and seeking God’s forgiveness? It’s a common struggle for many Catholics – the lingering sense of shame and unworthiness that seems to cling to us, despite our best efforts to move forward in grace. But the truth is, holding onto guilt after repentance may actually be a trap set by the Devil…

tfw the man you love against your better judgement gets a kid to help him with his photojournalism and dies trying to expose the criminal he's been blackmailing and then the kid puts on a uniform that's way too big for him and calls himself spider-man after ben urich and you know he's going to get killed trying to serve justice to all the criminals in new york. and now there's a sixteen year old kid bleeding out on felicia's doorstep and again despite her better judgement, she cares. how much of that is a misplaced sense of responsibility for her dead lover, and how much of that is the deep feeling of injustice over how this child is the one fighting, and how felicia knows that she could never turn him away. what then </3

I feel a deep sense of anger and grief for Palestine. I’m angry at God, at the world powers donating to those who are killing civilians, angry at people looking away and encouraging you to worry about yourself when people can’t even walk down their streets without being attacked. I’m angry that my friend donated, only for it to be stolen and taken by the soldiers abusing Palestine. I’m angry that I can’t do much of anything but tell you to at least CARE about the people being bombed and slaughtered. Please, if you can’t do anything please just CARE about these people and listen to their stories. Hold them in your hearts at the very least. Don’t pretend they don’t exist or just brush it off as “its been going on for centuries, there’s no point in stopping it.” I want to do more, I want to make people care and love those who need it, rather than continue spreading anger and hate.
These are real people I’ve drawn. Keep the people of Palestine in your heart at the very least please.

hi can we just talk about how much finnick protected peeta? like not just in the games but after?!?!! he was the only one to not raise his gun at peeta, who stepped forward and tried to help him. he reassured him it was okay to ask questions when he needed to. he ran lines with him, told him he had this. even when he killed someone on their squad and was going after katniss finnick didn’t become violent with him. just retrained him and tried to calm him down, literally telling peeta i got you. and the line “peeta just tuck in there” I’M SCREAMING

Boromir is excluded since he was first; Pippin is excluded since he won the first poll.
I am very curious about the people who voted for Sam in the last round given his canonical level of resistance; whoever you vote for, I would love to see your reasons in the tags!

some daan marcoh doodles around some dialogue bits I hit in game haha - gave me some thoughts on how one could think of daan if you only bumped into him at certain points?
I don't remember the lines exactly but there were a few like this?
'Are you moving on? I guess we'll split ways here.'
'Someone has figure out how to treat these people...'
'You were very heroic stepping in there.'
'In the dark, your thoughts can really get to you out here...'
'Am... I... still a good man? Or...'

I said it weeks ago, but loved the confirmation that Moo is the catalyst for Kang dreaming again and opening himself up to go after what he wants.
Kang was more open and honest in this episode with everyone who matters to him than he’s been in any other episode. He was straight forward instead of deflecting in fear.
He owned up to his feelings for Moo with Neth and admitted that it was his mother that was the greatest reason he didn’t want to pursue Moo.
He asked his mother about how his father wooed her, and it lead to a beautiful coming out scene where Kang admitted that he didn’t want to disappoint her or cause her pain again. And his mom was able to affirm that he’s not a disappointment and he hasn’t caused her pain. That she loves him as he is and he deserves to be loved.
And he went and did art outside of his own paints, going back to the place he was tutored.
He told Moo that Moo’s determination to follow his dreams inspires Kang to not let his die. He opens up to Moo, not only agreeing to date him but to share why he didn’t go to university in the shadow of his fathers death and his mothers disapproval of his art, and that he’s planning to submit his portfolio and pursue his dream.
I don’t think that it’s going to be a fully smooth ride, but I am so glad to see him being honest with all the people in his life today. His truths were so carefully protected by his high walls but he opened the doors to the people who matter.

look I believe in my heart of hearts that anime!Mira and Volo would get along like a house on fire
hopefully there's gonna be time to get into it during blood curse proper but also they're both more side characters in the grand scheme of things despite v's relevance in a certain someone's life. i'd be more than happy to elaborate though!!
(for the record Mira is like 13 at this point and V uses they/them pronouns)

i love the tellun i've made up in my head, the reclusive, gentle soul who could never be found by any human, who has no higher standing than his fellows because the great beasts are all equal, who changed his mind about the first devourer war and would have fought alongside the four had he not arrived too late, who was wracked with immeasurable guilt for letting them fall and wandered the wilds of stetriol for 500 years afterwards, who appeared to conor, abeke, meilin and rollan in a sad state of ruin, fur dull, head hanging low, all manner of plants hopelessly tangled in his antlers, with no light left in his eyes. why couldn't the four heroes have encountered a great beast who had fallen from greatness? why couldn't any of these god-like beasts have felt lasting, debilitating shame for their complacency in the deaths of their siblings, for their failure to protect the world they had sworn to? why couldn't tellun have been plagued with guilt so intense he hid himself away until he saw his prophecy fulfilled? why couldn't he have lingered at their gravesite until he laid eyes on them once again, reborn?
