Homework + trying out some brushes

[thekristen999]

Are you disappointed that they didn't show Eddie freak out even a little when he was in that chopper? I feel like they're still ignoring his trauma.

Hi Nonnie, I wasn’t expecting Eddie to freak out on the helicopter. So, I wasn’t disappointed. We’ve seen Eddie deal with helicopters on multiple occasions. Bobby even needed him to shut one down during an emergency. They’ve never seemed to faze him.

As far as acknowledging his trauma, we did during his arc in S5 which resulted in him returning to therapy. Probably with a trauma specialist dealing with PTSD vs someone like Frank.

Personally, I don’t see helicopters as a trigger for him. Triggers are not necessarily black and white. His trauma (regarding being shot down) is more related to his feelings of survivor's guilt and fear and helplessness experienced when they were about to be over-run and killed.

He associates being shot down with failure and guilt. Survivor's guilt after the fact, guilt at not being able to save Greggs, but mainly for almost leaving his son to grow up without a father. (And before Eddie ever had chance to actually raise him). Eddie has always been drowning in guilt over Chistopher which was also fueled by his parents' lack of support and ridicule.

The first time we saw Eddie flashback to being shot down was when Chris brought him his Silver Star. That medal is more triggering than a chopper. He also looked at it before his phone call to Mills right before his breakdown.

His second set of memories were triggered when he was trapped inside the well. A situation which threatened once again the thought that he might abandon his son. (And we see what perfectly rational reaction that produced...lol) And also triggered his feelings of being out of control.

I hope one day, he’ll be able to look at that Silver Star without guilt. And if he is successful with his therapy, he probably will. Look at the process he's already made! Just like I’m sure he’s processed and is still processing his traumatic memories and replacing his flight and fight responses with those of healing. Which is the goal of EDMR therapy.

Do I need another reason to hate this government?

Today I’m writing the entrance exam for med school (yes, I’m talking about NEET) and man these mfs have a fuck ton of idiotic rules:

- no patterned clothes

- no full sleeved tops (and if anyone does come with full sleeved shirt, security will not hesitate to rip the sleeve off)

- no earrings or any sort of accessories

- pants should not have pockets

How the hell does someone commit malpractice using patterned clothes??! What the fuck is this system

Almost everything I own currently is either full sleeved or patterned. Searched every nook and corner possible, and now I’ve settled with one of my dad’s t-shirts and some very unflattering leggings. I don’t mind it, but still this was too much trouble for something completely unnecessary. Also I’m too dumb to copy anything from anyone ever, so I’m not sure if I’m a real threat 😭😭😭

Another thing, reporting time is 11:00 am. Do you know when the exam is? 2:00 pm. Yeah. I’m spending a whole day at this place. Yay.

Believe me when I say I’m leaving this country as soon as I get the chance

re: last anon i definitely think it comes from the uhhh whole threatened thingy. Since most of y3 is. Well. Uhm. Daigo Coma Hours we spend a lot of time w/ that guy in a threatened state. Hence the more “violent” interpretations bc. Well. his sillyguy’s in a coma. Though I’ve definitely seen Mine’s more… stressed (for lack of better words) state being misinterpreted as his natural state and I can see how that would lead to more frequent violent kirinmine takes etc. (Hopefully this is coherent I am soooooooooo tired rn)

[beatlesbracket]

I'm having fun with this bracket (but some of the options are so hard to vote from cause I love both songs dearly), but some of the tags are lowkey kind of unnecessary :/ (saw one that kind of set me off but I'm not gonna say what they wrote)

no for real it's like i don't care if you like one song better than the other that's the whole point of this thing but ppl are taking it. quite far and i don't get it

Talk shop Tuesday: Do you find it easier/more enjoyable to write angst, or fluff?

Oooh this is such an interesting question!

Let’s see. I wanna say fluff is both easier and enjoyable but then again.. so much of what I’m currently trying to work on is more angsty than fluffy. There's days when the fluff comes easier and it’s all I wanna write, and then other days it’s the angst that wants to be written. And I actually it enjoy it as well, and since I’m the one writing it, I can control how angsty it is and I usually know the outcome so it’s fun to create angsty moments and storylines because I know what’s supposed to come later and that it’s worth it in the end. And, let's be real.. it's quite fun when people yell at you in the comments 🤭

Currently, my answer would be angst simply because it's been a rough couple of weeks and what little I've written recently was more angsty than anything else. So I guess the short answer is: it depends on the mood, lol. And, of course, the inspiration.

Thank you, Becca! ❤︎

[daughterofhecata]

Hab Das Mädchen, das allein nach Haus geht zuende geguckt. Ganz offensichtlich ist der Grund, aus dem Nina in den nächsten Folgen nicht mehr dabei ist, der, dass sie zusammen mit Julie in den Flieger gestiegen ist und die beiden zusammen ein neues Leben angefangen haben. Ganz eindeutig. Eine andere Erklärung gibts nicht.
