there's something about the fact that charles said he never finished reading the myth of orpheus and eurydice. he references it and yet he never finished it. he looked back, not out of fear but because edwin needed to be seen. he got edwin back. they made it out of hell. he never finished the story. he is not orpheus and edwin is not eurydice.

#soda speaks #something something subverting the genre expectations simply because you dont have the ingrained idea of following them #as you can tell i am very normal about them #dead boy detectives #dead boy detective agency #orpheus and eurydice #edwin payne #edwin paine #charles rowland #payneland #paynland #paineland #painland #dbd #dead boy detectives spoilers

I think it would really benefit people to internalize that mental illnesses are often chronic and not acute. Some of us will never be able to jump the hurdle of managing illness, much less sustaining a sense of normalcy. Many of us will never "recover," will never manage symptoms, will never even come close to appearing normal - and this is for any condition, even the ones labeled as "simple" disorders or "easy-to-manage" disorders.

It isn't a failure if you cannot manage your symptoms. It isn't a moral failure, and you aren't an awful person. You are human. There's only so much you can do before recognizing that you cannot lift the world. Give yourself the space to be ill because, functionally, you are.

#mental health #mental health advocacy #like... anxiety and depression are often concieved of as simple and easy to manage...#...but that isn't the case for so many of us. anxiety and depression just have a lot more research invested into them...#...and while i wish this were the case for literally every other condition it does alter people's perception of you to some extent...#...so while this is NOT solely about anxiety or depression it includes us...#...my anxiety and depression and PTSD have *destroyed* my life. this is chronic and will probably be life-long...#...and that isn't my fault. i've done the fucking work but guess what? that doesn't account for the fact that I Am Just ILL #the least we can do for each other is to be compassionate #be compassionate to those who cannot heal. be compassionate to the people who can't manage their lives. this world is scary enough #recognize that management of symptoms is something not all of us can do - even IF their condition is labeled as 'easy to manage'#i allowed myself to feel angry that i can't heal 'normally' and that was unfair as fuck toward myself #and i NEED people to internalize this so that MAYBE this could help somebody else who is where i was #i NEED them to understand that it's okay that they are where they are - sometimes shit just doesn't turn out how you expect or want #don't beat yourself over you being a person. you are struggling enough. you deserve to rest. just rest please #and just... give yourself space

My sort of future au designs (traced/edited their psychonauts 2 renders for this) :] they are like 13 here

#art #illustration #fanart #psychonauts #psychonauts au #razputin aquato #raz psychonauts #lili zanotto #lili psychonauts #btw there's a lot of stuff about this au in my head rn so probably you can expect more posts about it. this is all I've got rn though #also. Lili is exploring gender stuff in this (my transmasc Lili headcanon :])#she's still going by she/her at this point but that probably will change #Raz also has gender stuff going on but will not figure any of that out for a while. too focused on psychonauts stuff at the moment #also (again). sometimes I forget what they look like normally and start drifting off from that when I draw them..#Raz has kind of little eyes and they're lower on his face. I always forget that when I draw him..#Lili. your eyes are so big and far apart like a horse. and your head is so wide. stop that #outfits #<- I mean. sort of

Idek what this is but here you go 🤲

#tfw when you have a doodle idea and it turns into a whole drawing #just a silly little thing #about her being much smarter than people expect her to be and how knowledge (?) isnt about knowing the most out of a book #its about the experiences you’ve had and what you’ve learned from them #and she’s had so many unspoken experiences but people don’t get it because she can’t put it all into words #so there’s the contrast between her messing up saying “don’t patronize me’’ and then her iconic quote ‘’you can change’’#and then some silly symbolism to go with it #hi guys I’m very normal about her I promise #cassandra cain #dc comics #batgirl #dc #batman #batfam #batman fanart #batgirl (2000)#art #my art #Bing’s doodles #using a normal pallet < using either black and white or the most blinding colors possible

geralt "i will NEVER deadname my best friend" of rivia

"he will ALWAYS be dandelion to ME"

#also 'including milva in male costume' goes SOOO HARDDD #everyone say thank you regis for citing a dozen precedents to pull that off. the effect of knowing your herstory <3 #c: geralt #s: i want to be by your side #geralt is like the reverse situation of a transphobe who 'has known you for 20 years so he can't call you something else now'#it's that he has known dandelion for so long that he can't call him anything else but his STAGE / CHOSEN NAME :')#the 'viscount dandelion' is so funny to me #i can accept that he's a viscount but I DRAW THE LINE at calling him by his birth name #milva: 'you can accept that he's a viscount??'#also it's lost in english but that his stage name and birth name begin with the same letter & thus sound. jaskier... julian...#not the 'chosen name starts with the same letter as the birth name' stereotype. and swag #the witcher books #book: lady of the lake #excerpt #one thousand million years ago in posada:#dandelion: 'don't you want to know my name' | geralt: 'but i already know your name. it's dandelion'#dandelion: 'but it's not my real name. don't you want to know my real and famous name' | geralt: 'not particularly'#geralt has the same relationship to dandelion's birth name and viscount status as dandelion has to kaer morhen 💀#geralt and dandelion are like i don't care who you were back then i cannot comprehend your sad backstory all i care is about who you are no #i think this kind of friendship helped them both slightly detach from their exaggerated levels of perceived self-importance #geralt from his 'woe is me i will never be seen as a normal man' and dandelion from 'im the most interesting man in this tavern'#only SLIGHTLY detach. when they're around each other they temper expectations. but when they're apart it grows back

How do you live?

#anyway miyazaki movies are really like #what if you accept that your legacy is not under your control #that what you expect may not end up happening.#What if you remember #what if you accept that you have to let go the people you love #what if legacy is heavy on your shoulders #what if you can choose #and i can't be normal about it #my trashy art #the boy and the heron #the boy and the heron fanart #how do you live #how do you live fanart #studio ghibli

I really don’t feel like we as humanity talking enough about this Jesper’s smile after “yes, expert!”

#look at this smile #he is looking at Wylan as Wylan is some kind of fascinating riddle #or birthday surprise gift he wasn’t expecting to get #this man is down bad #I am totally sane and normal i was just thinking about wesper all day long #they are soft comforting husbands your honor and i can prove it #six of crows #shadow and bone #grishaverse #wylan van eck #jesper fahey #wesper #wylan van sunshine #jesper x wylan #gunpowder

i just finished dark heir

#me foaming at the mouth during the last chapters: HE IS! FUCKING! SAVING YOU!#i am huddled around will kempen hissing like a mama cat none of these fuckers are allowed to look at him #dark rise #okay but like. cyrian at literally every moment in the book you see will anticipating things and making connections #that you never make. doing things like a leader & being fucking smart and strategic. and your dumb ass really thought.#hm. must mean i shouldnt listen to him about the magic staff that can literally stop the end of the world. must be evil.#me: [screams into the abyss]#i know i cant expect characters to react like readers and they DID all react like i knew they would but god it was so infuriating!!!!!#and heart breaking! god!!!! god!!!!! will reliving his mother's initial betrayal over and over and OVER again #and thinking about all the little moments we get where the novel tells us: if these 'evil' characters had just been accepted #instead of tossed aside maybe they wouldnt have fallen. if they had been protected instead of killed maybe they would have #become protectors instead of killers. maybe if will's mom hadn't tried to butcher him for the sin of his own birth #he wouldn't have been so scared to tell people he lied to them.#anyway im not normal about will kempen and if book 3 doesnt give me his friends fucking accepting him i'll kill someone #me looking directly at visander: i dont care how charming you are i'll murder your ass about it #i read this book in like 5 hrs im being very normal about it

This is going to be my last post about this but I was talking to someone who said that “oh all character weeks and ship weeks do this where they don’t allow certain ships or characters involved. Banning Tamlain from Elain week isn’t something new”.

I literally went to Feyre week and there was no rule about banning Feytam specifically from Feyre week. Feyre, who was canonically hurt by Tamlin. People who ship Feytam also know it’s not the place to post Feytam on Feyre week because the shippers actively understand their ship and are comfortable with it for their own reasons.

Edit: And Elain hasn’t even INTERACTED with Tamlin, why do you care if people ship her with him?

You don’t have to like certain ships or characters. So don’t have to see eye to eye with the people who like Tamlin or explain his actions and have sympathy for him. But stop putting your own personal experiences and beliefs onto others because these are FICTIONAL CHARACTERS! Tamlin isn’t real, Elain isn’t real, etc etc.

What up with dictating what people like? Having this weird policing of fanon and art and fanfics that people create? It’s weird as hell. I swear some of you people have never been in a fanbase before this.

#pro tamlin #tamlain #Elain week has brought out something in me that I never expected #yall I don’t even like Tamlain #but I also don’t yuck on other people’s yum #can we bring back the old shipping terminology?#OTP and NOTP?#I’m excited for Tamlin week because I swear these are the normal type of fandom people #no hating #no dictating #just vibes and crackships and talking about character nuance #Elaingate #dana metas

man as much as I understand why we bind/tuck and that it's not a bad thing if I could wish one thing upon the world it would be for everyone to get so much more normal about men with boobs and women with bulges (and everyone in between w whatever secondary sex characteristics). bc it sucks. it's uncomfortable and can be super super damaging even if you're using the best methods in the world.

and ofc it sucks from cis society but I think I have even more beef w people in the trans community that push this idea that if you're not binding/tucking you're not Serious about being trans.

#just some word vomit ig #bc this is my first summer in YEARS not binding #bc I finally got top surgery #and being outside in this heat/humidity just reminded me how fucking bad and hard it was w a binder #like it would hurt to Breathe sometimes and that's just... normal #which sucks. you rarely get out of long term binding without rib or back problems #I don't know As Much about tucking but afaik it can be even More dangerous #and uncomfortable #which isn't do demonize binding or tucking it just sucks that we're Expected to do it
