Idk but I sorta felt like the entire earth arc was such a waste in some ways. 

Like in many ways, throughout the series, Earth has become a ghost story. To those left behind, the Paladins are all but dead, but to the Paladins, the people they remember are amorphous, otherworldly, alive in some ways but dead in others. 

To Lance and Hunk, they haven’t thought of how time passes. They’re both afraid of how they’ve changed, but they haven’t realized how much their families have. Haven’t let themselves realize, really. 

Shiro cut his ties with earth, so to speak. He never really believed he was going back. This isn’t a dream come true for him. This is just another impossible thing, just as important and impersonal as any other mission. 

Pidge is a strange case. She never believed the people out there were dead, and she’s seen some of her family, some of her ghosts, more recently than the others. And they’ve seen her. There’s a sense of connection there that the others don’t have. 

As for Keith, he has nothing to return to. No one is grieving him, and the only ghost he left behind is a grave. He’s not going home. He found home in space. With the Paladins in the Castle, with the Blade in secret, and in the Quantum Abyss with Krolia. 

For the Alteans, Earth is nothing but a story. To Krolia, a planet to house her little place of peace. Not home, certainly. 

Home is a prison and a graveyard, as far as Romelle is concerned. Home means combat training and artificial light and tradition to Krolia. To Coran, it’s a bittersweet memory. To Allura, a gaping hole in her chest.

just. idk. something something a house is what you haunt and home is what haunts you. or whatever.

I'm doing a reaction thread as I'm reading through Tennis Ace and I'm being super normal about it

[undyingshiro]

i am the firmest loudest believer in country boy Zack Fair

he's got the craziest tan lines from working outside so much

the sock tan lines would be awful

i suddenly need to draw

[voltronrubinaito]

“Curtashi this” and “Adashi that” what about a third option, because Shiro has two hands…

[lil-shiro]

is this a safe space

[stars-over-ice-cream]

lance, blushing: you know, keith, i'm in love with you, completely head over heels

keith, staring at him: lance you're literally wearing converse

[trans-mephisto]

Osceola and Lewin having a father/son relationship confirmed!!! I figured it was the case with how they interacted tbh

Also kid Lewin is so adorable despite being like a horror movie child

[rubinaitoart]

Something that crossed my mind was how long Kuron’s hair was compared to the time he would’ve hypothetically been created, or hell, compared to the time Shiro went ‘poof.’ Like that is unnaturally long for human hair, even if it grows fast it wouldn’t have reached that length for a good few years. And on top of that he had like, maybe a couple weeks worth of unshaven scruff on his face so it’s just totally imbalanced. None of the other clones we saw had the hair length, stubble, or even the white streak so we can safely assume the Druids and Honerva made some edits themselves.

It really just gives me the mental image of the Druids and Honerva just kinda guessing as they’re prepping Kuron. They don’t know how human hair works. Is it like Altean hair? Other alien species? Until eventually they’re just like “fuck it” and they just haphazardly try to make him look like he’s all scruffy. It’s good enough.

And like NOBODY questions it because this is space and weird shit happens in space.

crossposting this one from twitter but like idc keith who withdraws because he has an awful thing for "loving too hard" and getting so attached it all goes to shit making him feel like the problem vs undiagnosed bpd is this bc bpd keith is just my twin and i love the idea? yes. also im obsessed w the idea of keiths fp being shiro and his reactions to losing him get more and more extreme as a result of the mounting fear that this will be the last time he sees his brother and he will be missing and ripped from him once more (devastating him because that codependency vein runs DEEP) anyways if you guys want a full post explaining what i mean on that one just lmk i felt like broganes rambling because i like them a lot found family dynamics turning codependent has a crazy hold on my brain currently

KH OC WEEK 2024

Day 2: Past

Shiro

Though Shiro themselves no longer remembers much about their past, they had quite an adventurous childhood. Shiro’s life has been rough and tumble from the very beginning as a young keybearer and they’re no stranger to finding themselves on an adventure.

The most important memories for Shiro are, of course, those spent with their friends in Twilight Town. Ephemer and Skuld were definitely considered Shiro’s best friends during that time, and the trio would spend countless hours running around trying to chase down the mysteries of the fortellers.

Shiro was also very close with their party members (the little weirdos from KHUX( /lovingly)) and would go on many adventures with them to grow stronger, and mostly to just have fun.

Chirithy and their dream eater companion where also very important people(creatures?)in Shiro’s life.

Shiro met the of the other dandelion leaders later on but didn’t have too much time with them due to the world kinda ending.

Usually during the time of fairytales, when someone discovers they were a keyblade weilder, they’d find themselves wondering into Twilight town one way or another. Shiro, however, was actually born there and doesn’t ever recall having a family or living outside of the town.

But yeah, otherwise, their childhood/pre-teen years were spent following the plot of KHUX, with the exception that they got to spend more time with Ephemer and Skype before being forced to part ways.

As children, Aiko and Viktor had a dream of building a spaceship to explore the stars with. They however, quickly realised that building a spaceship is a lot harder than storybooks made it out to be, so they instead settled on just looking at the stars.

It is still a memory they think fondly of years later. Not necessarily because of the absurdity of two children managing to build a functioning space ship, but because it was something they promised to do together. A promise of staying together.

(They immediately get separated, once they leave their world LMAO)

Viktor and Aiko both grew up pretty secluded from the rest of the world and had very little interactions with others.

Doing pretty much everything together was kind of a given, so having become separated from each other in the future neither of them took it very well.

Codependent idiots (lovingly) but they learn to exist outside of each other once they become older I swear.

I imagine their childhood home being a bit out of town near a beautiful meadow and forest that they’d play in.

(Oh, and they totally build that spaceship in the future once they realise that magic exists. It is extremely awesome, and I’d like to think Ansem’s apprentices will help them out with it once they finally get acquainted somewhere post kh3.)

Similar to Aiko and Viktor Merin and Tähti have been together since quite literally their birth. (Coming into existence together with no idea what you are is quite the bonding experience.)

Their creation happened under quite the confusing circumstances that naturally just had to involve old man Xehanort in it. Having had some unexplained part in their previous person's destruction, Xehanorts took the two under his wing for a short while. However, once he discovers the cause of the extraction failing (having both light and darkness extracted from the heart at the same time), he is quick to leave the two to fend for themselves as he continued on to advance his own goals.

(His goals were to create Vanitas. He just needed to know if extracting darkness from people was possible.) also, I say “unexplained part” in their creation, bc there’s no way that cryptic mummy gave them any sort of clear explanation for anything.

Vanitas was at least born with some sort of purpose and understanding of what he is, while these two were left to figure it out on their own.

You know those videos of otters holding hands while they float on top of water? Yeah, that’s what I think of when I think of Merin and Tähti.

They were pretty much in the same emotional state of ‘head empty’ as Roxas was when he first awakened.

They’ve come a long way from then tho

Also, I think for the two of them, having no idea who their previous person was is kinda like just having a whole piece of their being and self be missing. Just waking up someday to be told that you used to be somebody else, or more precisely, a part of somebody else, and now you need to exist outside of that person while also having no idea who that person was or if you’re really even your own person or just a part of somebody else.

Since I’m definitely more of an artist than a writer, I thought I’d add some other older drawings that I thought would fit the prompt. (TW old art /j)

Hey so I think Repeat actually changed my life.

I'm kinda ashamed to say that I never actually finished it, but Sissel left such a lasting impression that I'm slowly becoming him. He's just so mmmmmmmmm

Sissel is a precious little bun~ uwu

I hope you enjoy the rest of his route whenever you get time to play it!

(also if y'alls could keep my art/VN related asks on my shirokoi blog, that would be swell)

[ethereance]

Au where Keith gets a few more future flashes in the quantum abyss than he did in canon. Now armed with the knowledge of many future plot points, he sets out to make things right.

Or at least. He tries.

[shirokoi]

What do y'all think about furry stories using the word "humanity" to refer to characters' moral substance?

Does it distract you from the story at all or break your immersion? I've struggled to find different words that fit this scenario but "humanity" has such good flavor ;w;

[undyingshiro]

are y’all liking the ZackSeph??
