i need tails to be just as excited when it comes to flying as sonic is with running, specifically flying with his namesakes
#graveyardtxt#it can also extend to flying in the tornado ig#just the feeling of the sky surrounding him and not being tethered to the ground#freedom? did you mean the ability to defy gravity?#sonic was made for running#tails was made for flying#miles tails prower#sonic the hedgehog

If you don’t mind, what is it about Cody’s Bean that Anakin finds off putting?
All Vestiges are off-putting to Anakin.
He can't explain why, he just senses it on an almost instinctive level, to the point where it drives him absolutely crazy that the other Jedi seem unaware of this bizarre sense of Wrongness™ that only he seems to detect in these Very Unusual Beans.
Coh being a Vestige naturally makes Anakin wary of him. Coh being Cody's Vestige adds a new level of discomfort.
Both because the 501st works with the 212th enough that Anakin can't avoid encounters with the little menace, and also because Cody considers Anakin a bit of a nuicense. That is to say, Coh has noted Cody's disdain for Anakin and his unorthodox (and often very stupidly risky) tactics, and taken it as permission to mess with him for shit's and giggles.
Add to that the fact Coh is much more aware than most Vestiges, and especially good at changing his shape in distressing ways, and suddenly you have a very tiny but determined Eldritch Horror hunting the Hero with One Fear in what almost seems like an endless game of cat and mouse.
To Summarize: Coh is an Unknowable Horror™ that only Anakin seems to fully perceive, and what he's seeing is both confusing and scaring him.
#Eps Draws:#star wars#the clone wars#clone beans#anakin skywalker#commander cody#the Force made the Beans as conduits and expressions of the Clones's very essence#Vestiges are the result of outside forces meddling with the unknowable#they are not fully tethered to the world and thus lack sympathy or care for it or its rules#they are of the Force and they may be little but they are also very mighty#Coh is a horror beyond Anakin's imagination that could kill him if he so desired#but Coh cares for the body which used to be his and cares for Cody even if he is not Right™#thus Coh retains an interest in remaining grounded and aware of the world he lives in#which means not killing Anakin since that would ultimately upset Cody#but nothing's stopping him from fucking with the idiot

free advice for anyone thinking about adapting the last airbender in any medium at any point in the future: if your vision does not feature the sky as a whole character in and of itself, you have failed right out of the gate - not only as an adaptation, but in Getting The Point, and the scope and the scale of the tragedy (and the hope) that drives this story, and its main character
#serious business#writing#atla#netflix atla#aang#air nomads#this post is not about natla hate if you rb it please do not try to make it so#but if you give a shit abt Themes And Motifs you will give us the gaang Living in the sky. not just journeying through it#you will give us zuko in his anger in his grief always tethered to the ground and always looking Up#you will give us people in the earth kingdom/water tribes/fire nation staring past the walls they've had to build/had built around them#you will give us not just comets and eclipses but shooting stars and auroras and migrating creatures and weird clouds and storm breaks#you Will Give Us the empty space where an entire nation should be. and may never be again

Thinking about the selective memory play post I reblogged earlier today.
Whenever I am with @daja-the-hypnokitten for an event we do a bunch of fun amnesia shenanigans. The "I have a trigger I can't remember!" thing from the second chapter of Belladonna/Madison is inspired by real play that we've done.
Madison laughed to herself and mused the cute girl’s red hair. “I know, precious, I know. Do you remember what I put in your head?” Bella sat up and gave a thoughtful look, “Hmm… You gave me an amnesia trigger…” Madison nodded, “Mhmm… that’s right. Go on…?” “And every time I remember that I have an amnesia trigger I am supposed to say that I have an amnesia trigger and forget that I have an amnesia trigger!” she proudly proclaimed, before blinking back in confusion and looking around. “Wait, what?” Madison couldn’t help but burst out in a fit of laughter, “Oh precious.” “Whaaaaat?!” Bella cried out in a huff of frustration, “What’s funny?” Madison quelled another burst of laughter, “You’ll remember later, s– precious, I promise.” Madison held the other woman close against her and planted a kiss on the top of her head, “Gosh I am so smitten.”
Part of the safety we have in this kind of play is to do our best to make sure everything is remembered. Given our disorder and all our memory is pretty crappy and it's important that we keep our journal updated with an accurate and chronological account of everything that happened. We tend to update the journal multiple times a day even while on vacation. Especially, while on vacation, even.
That way we remember the time we spent even if part of that remembering is remembering when we forget and forgetting to remember when we need to forget to remember.
So typically Daja will have me able to remember things shrouded in amnesia triggers while writing the journal and forget again the moment we stop writing. That way I can be a good girl and not think about the things that Miss has asked me not to think about until I'm allowed to think about them <3
I wonder though. if she's able to make me remember things while writing. Can she make me forget things while writing too?
In a realistic sense that means "and after mentioning the scene we just finished I want you to write 'Miss told me to write that I am a good girl and that I am loved and it's important to write that in my journal so every time I read it I can see that I am loved and by writing this I am obeying and being a good girl and it's okay to forget that I wrote this until I reread it after the vacation'
Buuuuut
In a fantasy 'this is unethical and don't actually do it but it's fun to talk about' kind of waaaaaaay?
Wouldn't it be fun to write about things that didn't happen. Like while writing a real account of the weekend that will eventually replace actual recollection as the Truth of what happened during that weekend? A form of rewriting reality but doing so by abusing the unreliability of memory?
Like again? That's super edge play and would need heavy negotiation and stuff--
But it's a fun idea, right?
Maybe like a suggestion to write the real journal and then write a fake journal which tells a fantastic and hyperbolic version of reality? Hmm--
Things to think about
#cammie posting#hypnokink#hypnokink OC#daja <3#hypnosis#amnesia play#suggestion suggestions#personal#we would NEVER turn our real journal into a play tool#it's too important to our grounding and tethering to the past#but there are ideas

y’all i think i flew too close to the sun and i’m a lil too tipsy to write tonight, but!!! is your muse the type to be physically affectionate first or wait until the other person initiates? chiyo waits most often, but she’s always reaching for hands (so maybe she initiates sometimes). she’s always looking upon your face so softly and maybe cupping your cheek or maybe thinking better of it. but she’s also always leaning into your touch. she’s so touch starved even if her family is affectionate. she can’t get enough of physical affection. she craves it. but she’s so restrained bc she fears being found wanting. she hates to be seen longing for what she doesn’t have. and i’m totally rambling but i love her and want you to ramble to me about your muse’s desires when it comes to affection pls and thanks 💜💜💜
#oh i hope i make sense#sometimes she doesn’t reach out first but she’s always leaning into physical touch if someone offers#she loves being touched by loved ones#sometimes it’s like their touch tethers her to the ground when she’s overwhelmed#and i’ll stop myself here bc i feel all goofy silly and need to get ready for bed uvu#i’ll catch y’all tomorrow — iluuuuu#get ready to ramble | ooc

Sometimes I like looking at my ao3 stats page just to see the word counts of all my fics. Sometimes I forget that I wrote all of it. It feels like a different person did all that. Who am I now? Certainly not the person who wrote 70k words in 3 weeks. They're me, but not.
Who am I now? I don't really know.
#speculation nation#negative/#kind of. i just finished my homework but it did bad things to my brain.#to the point where i feel like my tether to reality has snapped. i feel like. im floating and i cant reach the ground.#my life is down there. i want to be down there. but here i am among the clouds. there are no emotions up here.#i think im just going to go to bed. my emotions will probably have fixed themselves come morning.

i’m also just baffled people are simultaneously saying like “oh no i was so invested/i didn’t even have time to get invested!” like ?? which is it? the show has always revolved around osha and mae we really on had jecki and yord for like ??? two-ish episodes? bc there was a whole flashback they weren’t even in at all. the show has truly focused on mae and osha how dare the show be about the main characters i guess
#i’m done now this is my last post about this cuz imma go back to drawing#but it’s just so silly to me#also yords hair was lowkey driving me insane bc i don’t feel like it matched his character at all#lyriumsings txt#they should���ve given him a different hairstyle#but like the whole time they were basically just ??? comic relief#and enforcers of like the status quo lol#like sure there were sparks there for a second between jecki and osha but nothing like magnetic and ground breaking#spoilers#the acolyte#like i can say andor 100% felt like there was absolutely no wasted time#everything served a purpose#yord and jecki to me didn’t really serve one besides being tethers to the jedi for osha#so far*#like so far all they are are links to her past and like a weird glimpse at what she could’ve been/had#once we find out what the jedi masters did to osha and mae#my opinion may change but i doubt it#sometimes a characters purpose *is* to die tbqh

@anoblewomxn liked this
It has been a short while since the Doctor purchased their house and settled into their new home on Earth with their family never too far away. However, they can never hold still for too long, the call of excitement forever drawing them back into their TARDIS. With this in mind, they approach Donna one day, looking like they're about to ask her the hugest favor in the world.
"Donna?" They say her name first, their voice suspiciously already pleading her to say yes. "So, there's this... thing, that I want to go to," they start, tapping the pads of their fingertips together over and over again as they think of how exactly to word this.
"Well, you see, there's this concert going on, and I'd like to bring you with me to it. But there's one problem," the Doctor smiles sheepishly at her, their eyes crinkling at the corners, "It's a few billion lightyears away on a moon called Kaldraxis. Lovely place, really! Not dangerous at all- at least, not for years and years after this concert." One long led bends at the knee so they can tap the toe of their converse on the ground behind them. "There's meant to be animated fireworks and a whole light show happening."
#anoblewomxn#/ in character#/ verse: fourteen#[ i like to think that donna is the one who's like tethering them to the ground for the most part ]#[ whether she does so purposefully is up to you but i feel like 14 is like mom can i go outside LMAO ]#[ like. even if she said no they'd still be sneaking out but when they want to ask her to come???? they're like 🥺👉🏻👈🏻 GFJKULIO ]#[ anyway enjoy ]

forgive me for my one-track mind but i do believe the main characters are a package deal, a pair, a duo, and the show hinges on them so i have mixed feelings about the last season. i liked that it didn't take centuries to make, to be more precise i don't care about the long wait i care about the erratic workflow that had been causing problems and seems to no longer be part of the process, and i like that quality was consistent and they're not shying away from serialization (that they set up and which was unavoidable anyway). what i don't like is that morty was almost relegated to a side character role i would guess that's partly because if they explored his perspective a whole bunch of crap would have to also be explored and shown in a different light, this is by no means the only way to interpret the show but maybe treating morty more like a serious character with a complex inner life would have to mean rick's vilification to an extent and that would be risky
#basically the grooming will continue to be explained away and the dynamic has shifted without the actual steps that kind#of growth would take because what else can you do gdsgbcy alienate part of the audience? no way#and it's a delicate balance between moments of drama and sillygoofy creative sci-fi shit‚ i understand if the latter is what they needed to#set themselves straight‚ the focus on beth and summer and jerry was fun and i like that it felt grounded#which is good for this show specifically!!! it's like with anatomy i think‚ you gotta learn that and learn realistic drawing so you can#push beyond that and be purposeful about it and develop your own style that isn't as tethered to reality. and here too it's probably best#to learn/remember every once in a while how to do the basic components of a tv show well (to make it successful and coherent and#emotionally satisfying) and then you can get real wacky with it and go into self-actualization territory#but i miss wacky!!! does that make sense#kata.txt#rnm
