I find I'm still stuck in place after so long.

#great god grove #ggg grujaja #bizzyboy gr #ggg bizzyboys #booooo booo Aotuurle made another image relating to song lyrics BOOOOOOOOOOO BOOOOOOOO #BOO THEM OFF THE STAGE #fun fact i have a whole brain amv for the song the lyrics are from for this guy. oops #anyway yeah.#gr feeling stuck in place because of anxiety and circumstance and not having anywhere else to go #and relying on a coping mechanism for over 20 years at least in my headcanons #feeling bad about himself that this is *all* he is after so long. someone afraid to break out of his comfort and perceived safety from fear #scared that this will be all there is. but more scared to change n stop seeing almost nothing and muffling himself from the outside world #so he stays in the cone blindly devoted to every word #i have so many thoughts about this guy its horrible in here #giving this guy a huge smoothie and wrapping him in hello kitty blankets. im sorry i fucked u up dude. i cant fix this one #what being my favorite does to you. sorry

I was thinking to myself you know a lot of the time Law is like. Super bundled up. In fluffy coats or hoodies or sweatshirts or whatever else, probably partly due to growing up in the North Blue. But then I was like. Okay if that's his normal wardrobe why did he walk around Dressrosa in just a coat and no shirt...and then it hit me. The coat obviously had Cora's name on the back but Law had his shirt off to show off his front. HIS TATTOO. DEDICATED TO CORA. This is the first time we see him without a shirt and get to see that tattoo on full display. Homie really went into this like I'm going to make it so blatantly clear to Doflamingo that Cora is everything to me and that I'm doing this FOR CORA that no matter where he looks that reminder will be staring him right in the face. FRONT OR BACK IT'S ALL CORAZON. I'M WALKING INTO THE OCEAN

#Shima speaks #SHUT UP SHUT UP ODA WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS. GODDAMN SYMBOLISM. KILLING MYSELF #One Piece #Cora on his back Cora on his front Law is a walking talking Corazon shrine and I am SO here for it #(I know he's got his jolly roger on his back too but. I'm referring to the Corazon coat specifically)#Ahhh unhealthy coping mechanisms in fiction my beloved...#Trafalgar Law #Donquixote Rosinante #Corazon #Cora #I'm not saying that's not heterosexual behavior but uhh that's not heterosexual behavior. :)#Also the fact that Law goes back to wearing his normal comfy clothing after Dressrosa...THINKING EMOJI #Luffy: Torao's not showing off his tattoo anymore?#Law: That was for Doflamingo. Now I'm keeping it to myself #Hi hello I'm normal. Nomrla. Norlam

Everyone always assumes Arthur is gonna come back in 'our' time in fics, but when is someone gonna write an 'Arthur returns because Aliens have invaded Earth' futuristic one

#the possibilities!#let merlin go to space #also he could be obi wan #still talking about the magic in his time #and meanwhile they have laser guns now #dont even ask its the middle of the night and Ive decided to put all my thoughts in posts now #also im ignoring the fact that merlin would have to wait even longer #its fine he saw a therapist and found good coping mechanisms #he's gonna have the time of his life fighting in space when arthur returns #bbc merlin #arthur pendragon #arthur returns

the way i see it kaiser is kind of stuck in this state of constantly trying to prove his adulthood but the truth is that he’s one of if not THE most childish character we see in blue lock. niko is, what, four years younger than him??? and yet between the two kaiser is the one who acts more like a kid imo. i mean…his nonsense with isagi. the overall cringe. the swearing (“ex-fucking-cuse me part ___”). that one scene with the wine mom fit (complete with a glass of red). the obsession with psychology. the whole thing about thriving in malice and restriction and whatnot. i don’t think he ever grew up — and, in some sense, i don’t think he ever really left that jail cell, either. however i don’t like him so i won’t be considering this any further

#i wouldn’t consider this a pause from kaiser hating but here is a slightly more insightful post than my usual slander #i mean not that this is NICE but at least i’m not calling him grated cheese #anyways obviously i Don’t GAF abt him so don’t go crazy in the notes abt how i missed the point of his character #i probs did idk i genuinely don’t care abt him or any of the characters he’s associated with #so this is based solely on what vague recollections i have of him!!#you can consider it my coping mechanism for the fact that i have to see his ugly ass week after week #michael kaiser #bllk

What if after crawling out of the harbor Kaz made sure he knew how to swim, and how to swim with extra weight, because he didn't ever want to rely on someone or something else if he ended up in the water again.

It's one of the things that started the rumors that Dirtyhands wasn't human. Fisherman would see him walk out to the docks in the dead of winter, fully clothed in his coat and all, and then dive into the water, no matter how rough it was. They all assumed that he was dead, because no one ever saw him get out of the water, yet he was always back the next day.

They assumed that he would stop when he broke his leg and started using a cane. But he didn't. They watched the scrawny kid, cloaked in mercher black clothes and a heavy wool coat, limp down the dock, take a deep breath, and jump in the water again.

At some point someone suggested he might be a tidemaker, but no one ever saw him control any water. He'd just dive in. And it's widely known that he wouldn't have made it this far in life if he was using tidemaker powers visibly. So they all just assumed that Kaz Brekker was a non-human entity incapable of dying.

#my headcanons #six of crows headcanons #six of crows #kaz brekker #kazzle dazzle #let me clarify #this doesn't mean that he doesn't have panic attacks when he gets in the water #actually they're probably worse than they would be if he hadn't done this #but he views them as weakness #and taught himself how to at the least keep his head above water with them #because you can't tell me that Kaz Brekker wouldn't be the type of person to force himself to push off a panic attack until he was alone #and there were in fact plenty of times #especially in the beginning #where someone saw a kid flailing in the water and had to pull him out before he drowned #he simply threatened them into not talking about it #idk #i just know nothing about this man is healthy #lets give him another bad coping mechanism:#forced exposure therapy

GUYS… THE EPILOGUE MAKES ME WANNA KILL MYSELF…

I’M JUST.. GONNA KEEP MY DELUSIONS GOING.. we’re gonna pretend we didn’t just lose ALL but two LOV members MEANWHILE THE HEROES SIDE HAS PRACTICALLY NO CASUALTIES…

We’re also going to pretend that whenever MHA takes place in 2XXX, a significant amount of technological and medical advancement allows for dabi to be treated especially since we have LITERAL WORKING MECHA SUITS!! (i guess that has nothing to do with medical advancement but someone hear me out..)

SWEET EPILOGUE I GUESS… BUT I’M A DEPRESSED MAN…

i NEED to see dabi adjusting to a new normal and getting therapy!! learning new reasons to live and how to live not as dabi, but touya!! and i need to see everyone alive and interacting!!

oh im obsessed with this actually… who ever wrote this one i am kissing u on the forehead and hugging you real tight… inigo is such a loverboy im kkkhhhhhhijnsdnfng

#ann plays awakening #EDITING TO SAY I STARTED TAG VENTING HIT READMORE AT YOUR OWN RISK #anyways #LAST LINE IS A KILLERRRR WOW #‘ann werent you just pairing olivia with thar—‘ OLIVIA IS A BUSY WOMAN OKAY #but also i just had this old save file from when i wanted to see pink inigo and decided to get some more supports #im obsessed actually like #ok tag venting time maybe this should be its own post but u guys know who i am #not only does this support in my very educated opinion do a good job at emulating inigo’s way of speaking #but i think theres also a very underrated characteristic he has that not a lot of people talk about and its that hes honestly quite morbid #him spending hours talking to and dancing with his mother’s grave is very beautiful and moving but it is also not a normal way to grieve #which makes sense because duh nothing about his life is normal but its j like. you know #if robin is his father (and maybe j the normal convo i dont remember) in the hot springs scramble he’ll insist upon bringing—#severed risen limbs home as a way to remember the peacefulness (lol) of the springs #and he thinks absolutely nothing of it!!#i think he gets attached to things just a little too intensely and because his life is surrounded by death how he expresses that can be #very interesting. and he talks about death all time more than the other kids #bc while a lot of their coping mechanisms are based in fear and the need to instill confidence in themselves (think cyn or gerome or owain #or sev or yarne or noire)#and how their SCARED of death and of loss and adapt different behaviors to act like theyre not (to varying degrees of success)#i think inigo is much more accepting of the fact that death follows him and has made it a normal presence in his life #which is not a good thing it means that he hasnt let himself grieve. he lets death hang over him and follow him instead of pushing back #also guess which one of the awakening trio in fates has the canonical story death. just by the way lmao #anyways bc im writing this in the tags on my phone i cant actually see what the hell ive been saying im j stream of consciousnessing this #but my point is that inigo has a weird fixation on death and dying that stems from his inability to make peace with death and grieve #and i think him idolizing death in this support (this BRILLIANT fan support that made me ill) is so in character and so lovely #i miss him so bad (hes literally in the photos im posting) grghhhrgah #i wuv him :(

Not "Robin Jason was just an angry, violent, aggressive brat", not "Robin Jason was a perfect, innocent, complete sunshine child" but a secret third thing (Robin Jason was a child who'd suffered abuse and trauma his whole life and never got the proper tools to heal from it; he was happy and silly, and he got angry and could be difficult)

#my dc posting #dc #jason todd #jaybin #robin jason todd #no he wasnt a devil child and no he wasnt a perfect sunshine angel #im much more receptive to the latter bc at least its not demonizing a traumatized child #or victim blaming someone for getting murdered #but it still feels like a big disservice to who he is #and not to be projecting/relating to jason on main but-#my life hasn't been half as bad as his but when any complexity to jaybin is denied bc he Wasn't Bad Like That it feels. bad #my trauma&mental health issues did (and do) make me difficult. when i was 13 i was angry and had a hair-trigger temper #interpreted everything in bad faith etc etc. i was difficult and a lot of work and i was suffering and deserved love and help #(which i've thankfully gotten. love my mom for always being there for me even when i WAS a nightmare)#anyway. i dont like a jaybin who was nothing but angst and rage and behavioral issues. hate it in-fact #i also dont like a jaybin w no issues n no trauma n no poor coping mechanisms and troubles #you gotta get a healthy mix. its the only way forward #once again... the answer to everything is ''people are complex and you gotta think abt things more than surface-level''

i still cannot get over The Twins like.

imagine.

you have another version of you out there arguably living a life just as difficult as yours, if not more, that you can talk to at literally Any Time! and they're You so you basically already have half a convo down anytime you decide to pop on over via a portal

1610 and 42 stepping out of their respective portals side-by-side just to stroll out of an alleyway like nothin happened just going:

1610: LOUD SIGH

42: rough day too huh?

1610, brushing debris off of his shoulder: yeeep. another run-in with the rhino. again.

42: you didn't lock his dumb ass up like, last month? how'd he get out?

1610: don't know, don't care. so done with this week, i just wanna... i dunno. hibernate til spring 😮‍💨

42: man, what a mood.

1610: what happened to you? you look like you had a rougher day than me!

42, covered in visible bruises and cuts along with his bandages: mannnn... rougher week more like. well... rougher life. but. anyways.

they both nod at each other in Understanding

#spiderverse #miles g morales #miles morales #can yall imagine the Sleepovers #and the fact that if miles canonically has anxiety then All Mileses have anxiety #goddamn. in 42's case the panic attacks would be SO damn painful alongside obvious ptsd symptoms #OUHHHHHHHGGGGHGGGBH MY BABY BOYS #if i think abt it too much ill cry 😢#they are both Anxiety Brothers In Arms. just sharing one look between each other #and thats all they need #i am also so so so so enamoured with them swapping Mental Health Tips with each other #bc you know damn well aaron is NOT helping 42's traumatized ass with any of that 😭😭😭#poor kiddo #then he finds 1610 and 1610 is like 'dude that sounds like symptoms of ptsd. also youre having a panic attack rn'#and a whole new world is opened up for widdle miles g #but 42 is Not Dumb and i know he has coping mechanisms of his own!#catch him str8 up sitting on 1610 when he's havin a panic attack and 1610 goes 'WHAT ARE YOU DOING'#42: trust me bro. you need pressure on you rn. i do this all the time when im panicking like u are #1610: you get someone to sit on you?!#42: uh. no. i haul over aaron's punching bag off the chain and lay it on me.#1610 who is now visibly much calmer: uhhh wow. hm. that's kind of a good idea actually #42: right?! it helps out a lot!#clown horn

hate when i see a youtube video that's like 'analyzing why [thing] is bad!' and you watch the video and they just say nothing for twenty minutes

#random thoughts #watched a video on why a specific character was poor representation for survivors of assault #and it was such a nothing burger of a video #'this character is bad because children might see them and think their behavior is okay' okay?#i learned how to block out memories from finn adventure time but that doesn't mean memory suppression shouldn't be addressed in media #plus hazbin hotel. i'm talking about angel dust btw if that wasn't blaringly obvious. is an adult cartoon. for adults #adult cartoons shouldn't have to restrict their subject matter because kids could see it #and angel dust being a male queer SA victim using hypersexuality as a coping mechanism could be good!#and the fact he hits on other people despite it making them uncomfortable isn't exactly a problem a la his character?#it could be a control thing. i used to do something similar (pushing other people's boundaries and complaining when they pushed back)#because it made me feel some kind of control over my life #it could start off as a really shitty joke and then grow into 'oh god is that why he does that??'#but anyway their second main point was that the songs were bad? and that poison being an upbeat song makes it bad #like despite listing many other songs which are upbeat with heavy lyrics. but somehow poison is the exception because it's a cartoon?#like again that could be a character thing. angel dust using obfuscation as a coping mechanism to distract himself from his shitty life.#｡･ﾟﾟ･the lyrics are upbeat to distract you from how dead i feel inside･ﾟﾟ･｡#and their reading of the second song seemed really mean-spirited?#like as 'everyone has problems so you're not special because you're a whiny baby' rather than 'you're not as alone as you think you are'#and like if op wanted to just complain about a show they watched then yeah go off i do that all the time #but don't parade it as character analysis???#and they say 'oh reading it as a feelgood you're not alone message doesn't work because these characters' struggles are not equal'#but like. sometimes rape needs to feel like it's not some special trauma. it's not unique and you're not uniquely fucked up for it #two characters' traumas don't need to be directly comparable for them to bond!!!#and im not like. defending hazbin hotel btw. never seen it not going to see it no thanks #i'm just complaining about a mediocre youtube video that i'm going to forget about in a week #god i hate that brand of youtube video. where they just complain about things without going into depth about why they're bad #especially if their complaints are shallow and don't have to do with like. the actual structure of a character or story #like it's so easy to say 'this character is bad because theyre a predatory stereotype' but like. go into some depth at least #i think i hate these videos so much because they're fueled purely by hate. no love for the source material or even a desire to learn #or a love for storytelling even

Ok so I've been thinking about Ed and Ed's thoughts about himself through Horningold especially the line about how Ed's always been terrible with people

Because, that's not true?

Like Ed is incredibly charismatic, you can see throughout the entirety of the first season. In both 1x04 and 1x06 he manages to get the entire crew wrapped around his finger

His charisma even makes it past the 4th wall considering that for most of s1 the fandom was pretty convinced that Ed was a great guy even when he was doing things like ordering skinning via snail forks (an objectively not great thing)

Nothing any character says is truly objective but Horningold saying Ed's terrible with people feels like an outsider perspective until you get the reveal that Horningold is just Ed, specifically his self-hatred, so of course what he's saying isn't necessarily true but instead is just another manifestation of Ed's warped sense of self

#my ramblings #i just want to shake ed like a bag of loose change until more of his maladaptive coping mechanism and false beliefs fall out #he enthralls me #all of the purgatory scenes have to be considered from that fact its all from Ed's perspective and beliefs #not objective reality #edward teach ofmd #ofmd meta #ofmd #ofmd s2 spoilers

when you think about it clive and flora are actually perfect narrative foils on complete accident. like what's up with that. professor layton and the completely imagined literary devices
