I simply think this fandom doesn't give Wei Wuxian enough credit for the various ways in which he saved Lan Wangji

[seraphbutch]

did u know that if your "friends" treat u badly u can just cut them off and get new friends?? The best realization in life is that there are so many people in the world willing to give u love and support you just need to go outside and start talking to strangers I promise u it will also make their day as well

thinking about a certain anonymous confession on the utdr confession blog mostly unable to get behind sans aus where chara is “evil” and i get that completely, but also something new is probably the only time i can get behind “evil” chara is because the au leaves enough open for interpretation and nuance that most of the fandom just doesn’t do anything with or explore anything with

Cause like, chara is hardly completely evil—the remake/timeline of the something new comics making the player more obvious was pretty clear that the player was heavily involved and that killer wasn’t the only one effected.

it leaves room to wonder about Chara got where they are in something new—so manipulative, apathetic, desensitized, cruel, controlling and possessive while still acknowledging they are just as child trapped in the same game that killer/sans is no matter how much they might’ve tried to resist or fight back or protect themself or make themselves the biggest nuisance around.

there’s enough interpretation, moments we don’t see, to wonder about the nature of killer and Chara’s relationship. It’s not a stretch to think that once upon a time they were genuinely partners. Not equals, because Chara’s the most Determined and therefore in control, but for the longest time they only had eachother. only the other was real. it’s interesting to explore but many don’t

Just one of the many great tragedies of Mishanks' relationship is that sometimes Shanks wants to feel wanted just as he is, that even beyond the strength he is worth the effort he is worth being loved and unfortunately that just isn't something Mihawk can over him it's just not something he can do, not as he is now at least. That's a level of emotional maturity that he just does not possess to be able to disentangle the strength from the man that makes no sense to him. Strength is all there is. Shanks is a person, has a life outside of his strength, his power is just another aspect of who he is but for Mihawk strength is his whole person, if he is not strong then he is nothing. If shanks is not strong well then....he's nothing to him.

And God that's a lonely way to live.

thinking deeply about vivian ratcliff. grew up in fort collins, colorado with a good family, a good childhood, filled with many homemade dinners and pastries after meals and flowers in pretty, passed-through-generations vases. her family had a big farm that’s been there for hundreds of years through the ratcliff family and she spent many summers riding horses, tending to the cows, chickens, pigs and her ma’s honeybee farm. they make quite the profit. she’s kind and conscientious, aspiring teacher, and a happy-go-lucky, calm-cool-and-collected type of girl. she’s content with where she is in life. and she wants to do things, see new places, read and learn all there is. and then she meets boyfriend-turned-future-husband when her dad needs a handy-man and james pennington shows up. she attends the university of washington and completes a program for teaching but goes into the military after graduation because of an opportunity to shoot and fly - and, with a war on, she could kill two birds with one stone and see the world and do something for it at the same time. with her parents a little less than happy and her boyfriend shipping out to the navy, viv takes this in stride. heading to utah, she gets a gig on a plane as a turret gunner before being accepted into Silver Bullets under captain birdie faulkner, the first female pilot of the war for america. the crew builds up, the friendships form and Silver Bullets is the finest B-17 there is. she writes to james, she keeps up with her family and friends back home, she goes to the flying club, and takes early morning runs around base. she’s content. things are good.

then, captain faulkner is KIA. flying a regular bombing run - freak accident with the shrapnel flying through the air. killing her right in the midst of the sky. viv remembers how numbed and equally freaked out francis was - how’d she manage to land a plane and maintain composure? lieutenant annie bradshaw is the newest replacement and finds herself next as the newest pilot of Silver Bullets. viv thinks things are okay, things are looking up.

then, a letter comes in. james pennington is KIA. her world seems to shatter. everything seems to crack open and equally fall apart. she’s half in a spiral and half trying to keep it together in front of everyone else. no one should see her like this. she hardly wants to see herself like this. annie bradshaw and the rest of the crew seems to pull her through; most surprisingly, so does everett blakely. he was always more in the background, a handshake, a comforting pat on the shoulder, willing to check in and move on his way. an all-around gentleman. then, she starts to notice him. at breakfast, at dinners, before missions, after missions, glances through the interrogation tables, before bed when cigarette butts were stubbed out and last minute conversations were held. everett blakely was always there.

then, the Silver Bullets crew is split across half of europe. and yet again, with 40% of the crew MIA, viv is sent to operations and is suddenly stepping into a world where her hands are filled more with pencils and papers and maps then a gun. yet again - without annie bradshaw and francis montez, who became a pilot for a new B-17 crew with quite an annoying co-pilot, viv feels more alone than ever. until ev blakely is there. always there. again. they grow closer than they ever had - breakfast together, sometimes even lunch and dinner, cigarette breaks, sharing coffee breaks, finding moments to take a glance throughout the operations room. moments viv didn’t think much of. until she was heading out for the night and ev invited her to the flying club for a drink and a dance.

and then the war ended. and everyone went their separate ways. and reality hit. and it hit hard. james pennington’s funeral, the reality that the man she was going to marry is now dead, and her family, torn at the edges, crumbling. she’s hurt, filled with a grief she can’t untangle and is lost between what to do and what else there is left for her. until everett blakely starts writing. and doesn’t stop writing. writing the Silver Bullets girls were on thing, but writing ev blakely was different - in his words, his phrases, what he talked about.

they decide to meet, and everything comes flooding back. like the crash of high waves, just as fast, just as harshly. and she doesn’t feel herself turn away like she would. and suddenly, she doesn’t want him to leave. and for the first time in her life, he doesn’t. he stays.

In light of it still having less than 200 views, I just need everyone to know this video straight up rerouted my brain and significantly influenced how I view Stede as a character 🫠

[deepnpeep]

who do i have to pay to get a stede/ed 2009 dnp slow burn au

[s0ull3ss-p3rs0n]

Lloyd will succeed at what FSM had failed, because Lloyd doesn't do it alone and FSM tried to. And then Lloyd is the one teaching FSM the value of friendhip and stuff.

Like wouldn't that be something.

[thefbiagentinyoursearchhistory]

Lonestar really got me out here googling "mercy ship" bc they scadoodled one of the main characters off screen with "doing the Lord's work bc orphan photos" and "her mercy ship is in the Solomon Islands" and we all just supposed to know wtf that means ;-;

[tellmegoodbye]

I know I said my last snippet was the last one, but in celebration of my push coda going up tomorrow, here is one final tease.

Thank you @thisbuildinghasfeelings for the tag!

The words he's been holding onto for so long come out as soon as he gives in. He even surprises himself with many of the things he says, half-expecting TK to wake up in the middle of his unbridled ranting and argue back, or counter him, or for the love of God, just say something.

It's strange to have such a one-sided conversation with TK when he was one of the most passionate people Carlos has ever met. The silence is unnatural, yet it persists amongst the outpouring of Carlos’ confessions, as well as the anger that remains unanswered.

He doesn't want to be angry, he really doesn't, but he is.

Oohh I bet baby Stede would struggle SO much with object personification. He can't leave his stuffie in the car when they go out because it would overheat. He has to sit next to the washer while his favourite blanket gets washed so it doesn't get lonely. He wants Ed to read him this storybook tonight because they haven't read from that one in weeks and Stede doesn't want the book to think he hates it now. He can't use any of the cute teethers that look like animals because he'd feel bad for biting them. Etc
