To the people who are mad at Oscar for racing... Y'all would've been screaming, crying, throwing up because of Schumi and Red Bull era Seb -

[ineffablelara]

Something about Thomas and all of the other Cardinals of the curia putting the church and its reputation above almost everything else, almost above God Himself, something about the Cardinals trying to become pope because bc then they could shape the church in the way they want, something about not a single one of them being actually worthy of the papacy or knowing what it truly means

Something about Benítez caring more about God than about the church, something about him saying in the book that he felt more likely to encounter the embodiment of the holy spirit in those countless women who were victims of sexual violence whom he helped than he did in the church itself, something about him serving his ministery in those remote, violent places because that's where he truly saw the face of God

Something about Benítez getting stuck in Rome by the end of the story, unable to ever go back to his mission, to the places he believed he was going to live until the Lord called him back home, sure, as pope he could do much, much more to help those people, but still, it would never be the same, and he knew it

Nothing would ever be the same again, and he could do nothing but accept it 🥲

Soul and Maka tho 👀

I love them a normal amount. I wonder why I ship them. Gee, it couldn't be any number of these little things.

bickers like an old married couple, compares a partner exchange/breakup to infidelity. "Cool men don't cheat." literally the narrator: "Maka, and her partner and weapon, Soul Eater-"

dies for her. dies for her. dies for him.

bonus: breaks her fall

(this post keeps going, i'm putting the rest under a readmore)

Staying at the bedside while in recovery. The babies.

Couple's Therapy lmao

Domestic as all be.

Didn't have to have a special little dance to form a gameplan! Didn't have to dress up for it to enter the black room!

Trusted him to be her lifeline to pull her out of the depths of madness. So he pulled her out of the depths of madness.

"It's always there for me. This is my Soul Eater's soul!"

"The sound of his soul. All his emotions, they're flowing from him straight into me. What I'm sensing is…faith, and confidence. This is our foundation. This is our courage!" ok baby stop being so sappy ugh ♥I'm well aware synchronizing is essential to a solid resonance, but they went HARD on this. Soul went hard on this, to stand a chance in this fight. He did this for her.

THIS???? Saving him from certain death and/or madness?? She ventured literally DEEP inside his soul to bring him back from the brink.

If Soul's courage is for Maka, of course she'd have the key! PRECIOUS. Key to his heart chest! Yaaasss

Goes even deeper into his soul, to retrieve that petrified little piece of him he's locked away in the lockbox.

Because none of this is meaningful or intimate as heck, nooooope.

[hopeswriting]

daily life arc miura haru. does anyone know who i'm talking about. do you guys remember her. i still can't believe what happened to her 😔

[letternotekisses]

Hii! Saw you were doing dbd requests so i wanted to ask for a deathslinger x reader?

take it in any direction you want!! 🪲

Things were often quiet in the saloon outside of trials, minus the odd tumbleweed skittering past or the shrill cry of the vultures perched outside - waiting for more feed, more death. They often trailed Caleb while he made his rounds, intelligent creatures that had memorised the esplanade of blood that followed him.

He was well used to the quiet. A silence had fell over him long before before the Entity's embrace, a mute, dull rage broiling under the surface.

The day moved slowly with the absence of a trial - or at least it did, before the tentative keys of the saloon's piano began to toll. Not many of the other executioners often came through to his realm, and the break in quiet was surely enough to spark a tad of interest within Caleb.

The piano was a rickety old thing, sanded down all improper and chock full of splinters, and it had been a long time since anyone had given the instrument time of day. Your fingers, soft and unmarred with such delicate skin, glide over the wood in marvel, a tender gesture opposed to the usual aggressive flashlight blinding Caleb was used to.

He watches from the doorway with his finger hooked over the Redeemer's trigger, ever silent as not to disturb you while you play. A tune he wasn't familiar with, and it was clear your fingers were stumbling as you tried to recall the right notes, yet it was still the sweetest damn thing he'd heard in a while.

Caleb could kill you where you sat. Spear your back and disembowel you, scatter your guts across the dust like chicken feed for the vultures. But he didn't, there was no place for violence outside of those trials - not in his bar, anyways. He lowers the Redeemer, a rasp on his lips that startles you to his presence.

Poor thing. You jump away from the piano like it singed your fingertips, mashing the wrong key and scaring a crow from the window that had come to watch you play. You look like you want to run, a fox with it's hackles raised when it spots a stalking wolf.

But you don't. And Caleb approves. Locking eyes with you for one tense moment before he simply walks off, the sound of his heavy boots on wood fading out as he goes on to continue his rounds of the gallows.

A silent agreement. Just a small, tiny little one. You fill the quiet, and he lets you.

I can't find it now but there's a post about suspension of disbelief and how it's broken when the story starts trying to excuse it. "character gets knocked unconscious for hours but there's no further issues from this" okay 👍 "and actually this makes perfect sense because of this and that" um no it doesn't why are you lying to me. like i am willing to ignore the holes and the discrepancies!! all you need to do is let me and not bring unnecessary attention to it!!!

and all that is my issue with the whole robin child soldier argument. like i am willing to ignore it i am willing to engage with the fantasy literally all you need to do is NOT try to convince me that Actually It's Fine Because They Want To Do It or whatever. like literally just shut up about it and i can engage with the fantasy!!

[crimsonlovebartylus]

Let me present a beautiful fic idea:

Lily and James raising Harry! Alice and Frank raising Neville! Remus and Nymphadora co-parenting Teddy! Narcissa and Lucius raising Draco! Pandora and Xenophilius raising Luna 😦😦

look it's women being allowed to raise their kids and not erase from that narrative!!!<3 GASP

also during mother's day month?

Realizing I've only posted GAA art, for so the AJ half of my follower-base, I'm pulling this baby bunny Trucy outta the vaults for you fellas

[lizzybeeee]

Who wants to bet that Anders was planned to be in that post-credit's Executor cutscene montage but they changed it to Bartrand when they realized it would go over real badly with everyone?

[fritterbat]

Y'all seemed to be enthusiastic about my Tav when I posted art of her smooching Gale so I thought I'd share my full character design for her too! (I changed her color scheme since that previous art anyway) Here's my problematic weirdo squid girl, illithid Tavs forever 🦑

She actually neither went through ceremorphosis nor romanced Gale in-game, those are both part of my post-game storyline haha... she missed her half-illithid powers so much that after tying up some loose ends back home in Menzoberranzan and being accepted to join the Society of Brilliance, she asked the Emperor to tadpole her again so she could become a mind flayer. Her current project is working with Omeluum to create a substitute food source for illithids so they don't have to consume brains.

few more pics of her and some further nattering under the cut ->

here's what she looks like without clothes (that sounds so spicy. it's a mind flayer it's got no visible bits) and what she looked like in-game! I always used the Bloody Plum dye for her clothing while I was playing, but somehow landed on dark teals instead for her future self

Vennet's my first Tav and I played the game mostly blind so I didn't know what her arc would be going in, but I've developed her a lot over time. I had originally meant to romance Astarion but she ended up being... not the right person for him, and I had to break off their relationship bc I couldn't imagine it being anything other than a toxic disaster LOL, but at that point I was too far in the game to start anything with anybody else and she'd already rejected Gale's love confession...!

so I just ended the game with No Bosom Companion 😔 but as I was later thinking about my future storyline for her and decided she becomes a mind flayer after all, I suddenly realized that she'd be perfect for Gale. So she falls in love with him post-game (and post-tentacles!) and they have got some Issues to work through but eventually it's cute :3 (I'm maybe trying to write a fanfic about their romance, watch this space 👀)

[untitledgoosegay]

one of the weirdest experiences i ever had was flipping through dimidue fic early on and realizing " ... oh some of you guys are here for the power dynamic? like straight-up? you're getting off to the appearance of their relationship? and not the complex interwoven navigation of the personal, interpersonal, and political in an attempt to honestly connect and express selfhood? not the balance of truth, half-truth, and façade? not the struggle to truly express, receive, and understand love, despite the power dynamics at play and the political realities of the situation?"

skill issue. lmao
