obsessed with the dynamic of this lethal company stream tbh. the way they keep killing each other for no reason and laughing at each other and goading each other into walking into landmines and jumping off balconies and then sticking as close together as they can and warning against genuine danger despite it all. the way they have no idea what they're doing at any moment so failboat has to lead them around like they're lost puppies or something. della and smant constantly ganging up on CJ together. "we can even make out a little if you're interested." do u see my della/CJ/smant/failboat vision
#my posts#im not coming up with a ship name for this is you put a gun to my head sorry#poly lc#maybe every LC stream is like this. i haven't actually seen anyone else play it yet#does it just make every friend group gay as hell#just something about the intense teamwork going on#and how lighthearted it is despite that#and how echoing the silence is when ur alone..#i may or may not write a fic about this. sorry not sorry

"And why would we have come running in at the first yelp?" "....because we care about each other." "Oh, f***ing sh**, we do? Amazing, does that apply to you as well?" "...I don't know..." "Oh, I think it does."
I absolutely love Fjord and Beau's friendship and bromance
#my art#arts#critical role#the mighty nein#fjord stone#beauregard lionett#i do love that despite how prickly beau is#she is absolutely a hugger#fjords speech was probably just the thing she needed#kinda lighthearted but still stern and kind and caring#i rewatched that little bit so many times i love it sm

Time for more eternal gales isat au, this time featuring Sier as Isabeau, creating a sprite I can never use next to Aris’ because despite my best efforts it would make them look tall
#keese draws#eternal gales#oc#oc art#isat#in stars and time#this one didn’t take nearly as long as the aris one but I think I suffered for it more from the clothes alone#siffrin made me forget I suck at drawing clothes rip#this was also harder because of how much trickier it was to try and adapt siers design to feel fitting enough for my standards#they have a very stylized design compared to most of the others#I kind of took the lazy route out by keeping most of their original shapes in tact but it’s fine#sier in this au would serve the needed role of emotionally intelligent bestie who is also too scared to cross boundaries to do much#but despite this I do think they’d actually get the suspicion quest in this au#mostly because mase is a furry artist not a nerd and sier would be more likely to look at aris and go bro. are you in a fucking timeloop.#it also differs in that aris doesn’t yell at sier abt it instead looping before they can finish because she can’t handle hearing them be#right on the money about this thing that she thought she was handling perfectly#she doesn’t want to fail them she doesn’t want them to realize she’s failed them she doesn’t want to be a burden she doesn’t want them to#‘realize’ they’re better off without her#aris is Incredibly resistant to accepting help on most serious issues because shes convinced that it’s her responsibility to deal with it#by herself and that if she can’t then she’s a failure and worse than useless#I mean in canon eternal gales she literally loses her eye and arm because of that#in this au she just lost them how sif lost his eye but she still has. complexes abt all that.#but yeah sier also differs wildly from isa in many Many other ways as does the rest of the cast from their assigned characters#for sier they rly aren’t the jock of the group at all instead being more of the guy who keeps the mood lighthearted at all times lest they#die of stress because the others haven’t said anything in a whole 30 seconds#aka they’re the self assigned peacekeeper who doesn’t actually need to constantly keep the peace because no one’s fighting but they still#feel like they need to so they dance and dance and dance for their friends until they collapse from exhaustion#metaphorically ofc#this is why they’re both terrified to confront aris when she starts acting a bit fucked up but also why they still do sometimes anyways#they talk abt this a lil bit in their friend quest as they talk abt how they want to change but are scared to

kept on thinking about some of the more emotional beats of the kurokara lore while i was trying to fall asleep last night and i just... i need to explode...
#i was mostly thinking about the whole other side to osomatsu-san in hell where kuroba's trying to navigate their grief#there's a moment where kuroba's getting their usual weekly shipment of flowers and they realize they forgot ->#to change the quantity of red roses they always order ( they started ordering extra after kara became a regular )#for the most part they've been able to navigate things seemingly well. sure they've been more melancholic but they SEEM alright#and they try to handle this moment well too. makes a joke about how they're gonna have to have a sale on rose arrangements for a bit#but then they just. kinda break down crying. he's still everywhere despite not being there and it's so crushing.#kuro finally understands how their granddad must've felt when their grandma passed away....#there's a more lighthearted follow up to that moment tho#basically the delivery driver makes sure the quantity of roses is correct ( it's the same was before )#but kuro cheerfully tells them that the person they order them for is a regular again so it's alright#after that the delivery driver tells them that they're glad they made up with their boyfriend#when kuro's like excuse me??? they say '' you get the roses for the guy in the leather jacket right? i see him come in sometimes ->#after i finish deliveries but i hadn't seen around recently. glad things worked out for you yotsubana. :) ''#and then they leave before kuroba can clarify things. rip.#i'm going out for a bit but once i get back i NEED to finish the art for the first kurokara lore post i was working on#ship : kurokara#mj rambles

So, recently, I realized another part of the reason I fixated so much on Trip is the same reason I identified with Jane from Return to Neverland around their age... just feeling like an adult in my preteen years (and younger...), but now I was just reminded of Uptown Girls (and that devestating scene with the adult-like girl and child-like woman miserably turning that teacup ride in opposite directions) and seeing it turn up on so many blogs about this whole "we acted too grown-up as kids and now we act like kids as adults" thing is so......... ah.
I get it...
I always kept childhood things close, I didn't let people define what I can or can't enjoy as a child or adult, so that's good, but the Trauma and folks saying I wasn't a kid anymore at, like, 11, still made me feel like a wholly separate from others my age. Ten year olds seemed like little kids to me, I didn't relate at all back then. I'm glad I never lost my sense of wonder and fortunate I saw adults who kept childhood things close (like a coworker of my bio-mother's, who kept figures of Sesame Street characters in a work desk), I like to think I can be that person too, since my Little Twin Stars purse often got curious looks. Growing up doesn't mean abandoning everything you love...
Even if some of the kids of patients I see get confused by my offering toys or colouring pages or sweets to them, sometimes, you get an older kid who's happy to be offered one. Even if it's seen as funny or uncool by a bunch of kids who are in a hurry to grow up, I think it's better not to rush the process and acknowledge everyone's growing at their own pace and keeping what you enjoy and brings you comfort for as long as you need it, it makes the transition easier if you don't force it, you know?
#time to rewatch Uptown Girls I guess#personal#fandom#actually traumatized#Sanrio#(despite the subject matter a lot of it is quite a lighthearted odd couple/polar opposites type of comedy movie!)#I hope this feeling doesn't become more commonplace with how society and fashion and excessive exposure to social media is blurring lines#between adult and child so much...

all the negative criticism i’ve seen of gomens s2 can be boiled down to “it’s too queer and it makes me uncomfortable” which means it was great and neil did his job
#good omens#good omens season 2#the fact that i’ve seen other queer people complain about how in your face it is makes me sad but also#if it means we’re cleansing out cowards like you guys then bye bye !!!!!!!#guy who has never read a neil gaiman book in their entire life: Wtf. Why is this so weird and gay#also i think it’s important to note while it’s not necessarily a comedy or anything#i think good omens is generally lighthearted despite what happens and that’s just kind of the nature of a lot of gaiman’s works#i genuinely just think it’s how he functions as an author and people expect it to be all serious and angsty 24/7 and it’s like#you got the angsty part… so why are u mad !!!!#if you wanna watch stuff that’s 100% serious and dark all the time watch literally anything but good omens. 😭😭😭😭

was going through my blog trying to track down an old post i made talking abt my feelings on jolene and it was. much longer than i remembered it being. and haha yeah i still agree with it. i need to fucking. sort out my feelings on that character and that subplot
#like. its just been A Thing where once i thought abt it too hard it was just Wow i hate this actually#its not entirely like a visceral discomfort but its a sort of like. its unpleasant to think abt this for too long#like??? the easiest way for me to explain it is that normally its fine like ok a pursuer antagonist character to add lil backstory#but the moment you toss in the implication that she still has romantic feelings for him it jumps up to WOW THIS IS UNCOMFORTABLE#for me. for me. like just all of it? and some fan stuff that influenced it like. bad jokes and uncomfy phrasing that leans to linebeck bein#like an unwilling participant or ‘giving in’ like fan stuff also REALLY hasnt helped so i just. yknow avoid it#salty talks#might delete later but i didnt delete the og so whatever#like she is absolutely just. badly written. shes a joke and poorly written and its just. there and there are implications#it does just come down to. shes badly written and the way linebeck reacts to all of it doesnt help#like when i worry abt like. coming off as sexist. its like nah shes just fucking badly written#casca is a similar kind of character as someone aggressive to her love interest and lashing out at him despite having feelings#but shes like. well written. and guts reciprocates. and you like. see them communicate and grow closer#here youre just given a disastrous fucking aftermath where communication is completely broken down#and while the aggressive party still has feelings the other party actively wants to just not engage with it and actively doesnt care#cuz like. he literally does not bring her up or allude to her outside of her being immediately relevant i cannt see him being interested#GOD. i just need to write all this out i keep justifying myself with it i need to. get it out#im narrowing down. something. for how i think their backstory together goes with it being a lot of miscommunication and it just being like#a bad situation anyways with their last actual encounter being a violent one and its like yeah no that was a trainwreck#i know its a fucking like. comedic(????) subplot in a lighthearted childrens game#but it has Vibes to me and that game does have some darker vibes to it we all know that#and it just. i dont like her. i dont. i remember i used to be like. alright with her. and then i thought on it too much#casca addendum ig. shes objectively not like. well well written. but all things considered. shes pretty good#like im p sure she was made to suffer to make guts feel bad but. she does happen to be a kickass character in the midst of that

even though i never plan on doing it, i will never not be compelled by the sheer fucked up-ness of the concept of aeryn/astarion romance. aeryn/karlach too. pretty much everyone honestly
i mean no matter who he romances he’s gonna betray them for gortash in the end, so it kinda doesn’t matter who it is. he has this weird version of “universally shippable” because of that. it’s very fun to imagine, not just what the relationship would be like, but specifically the betrayal. the hurt.
falling in love with someone, realising they’re fucked in the head, meeting the guy who did the fucking, watching them leave you to go back to that shithead like the life-changing last month or so didn’t even happen, and then watching them die in his arms with a smile on his face.
like yeah they stop the elder brain but that shit would have you fucked UP for a good long while afterwards
#like i usually talk about the gortae murder/suicide ending with a lighthearted tone because the despite the weirdness#it really is the best case scenario. Aeryn/Gortash - as a singular entity - needed to be stopped. terminated. put down.#and the companions do save the world. it’s safe not only from the netherbrain but. like i said. gortash and aeryn#it’s a happy ending for the companions overshadowed by the horrors aeryn and gortash inflicted on them#i think for astarion and shadowheart especially there’s this deep-rooted empathy despite the horrors that they can’t fight#which leads to sick fascination and a need to Understand him.#how someone with such a strong desire to Be Good could fail in such a spectacular fashion over and over again and not learn his lesson#lmao it’s kinda like that tiktok trend ‘when your card declines in therapy and they bring out the one you can’t stop rambling about’#that’s post-campaign shart/astarion about aeryn#ok i’m done now no more rambling about how Fascinating my oc is it’s getting annoying#your daily dose of idiocy#oc aeryn

not only is discord a perfectly viable way to harbor community circles or whatever but the thought of joining something exclusively filled with tumblr users sounds like the quickest way to a mental breakdown
#despite the critique this is mostly lighthearted. i just do not see how Tumblr Communities is going to work. at all#posting

Not Roran doing laundry and scolding Katrina for her internalized misogyny
#I am side-eyeing Chris a liiiiittle bit#because I'm not sure how much I love an author who's a man#having a man character white knight a woman character by doing chores despite her protestations#but Alegaësia like most high fantasy settings seems to hiiiighly ascribe to traditional gender roles#at least the humans do#and I'm sure good ol' Chris only had the purest intentions#and the scene was approprioately lighthearted and adorable about it#so I'll allow it#Roran top tier dude#ashna reads the inheritance cycle#inheritance cycle#inheritance#roran stronghammer

finally getting a chance to work on chapter 15 today :-)
#shout out AS ALWAYS to people leaving comments!!!! you are keeping me motivated you are keeping the dream alive#for some behind the scenes: in the last few weeks i've been barely sleeping and it makes it very hard to write or even be in a good mood#i usually need 11+ hours to function and so like. 2-3 hours a night is putting me in a bad place both mentally and physically#and yes i realize 11 or more hours is like a silly amount of sleep but idk. it's just how i am. i go to bed early AND sleep in ahaha.#i've been falling behind in all my classes due to the sleep thing so writing for fun has totally been off the table lol#ANYWAYS#typing typing typing (this chapter will be a lighthearted one)#we all need some fluff and levity i think (and i need to give time for Riku to care for Sora even more and be like. wow. i love you)#I was struggling earlier bc i wanted to write both about how Sora has been hiding darkness from loved ones and needs to let them in#but also with the idea of sora feeling that he needs friends to have strength or value. and i kind of realized i needed to pick one#like maybe a better writer than me could have both of those things be addressed at once but for me i was like... I want Riku to comfort him#which goes against him learning that he's fine on his own. we can address that in a different fic. rn he is just sad and needs to know#that he can share that with the people around him. and that he's still loveable despite it all#also shout out to my gf for teaching me “love isn't something you deserve that's not what love is” like. i did not know that b4 her#so I asked her lots of questions for chapter 14 actually cause I was like. i want Riku to support Sora in the way you'd support me#cuz IDK SHIT ABOUT THAT i have always felt unworthy of love and like i had to beg people to stay with me until i got into this relationship#so i was like. judy. what is your wisdom. how do you care for me when i feel like my pain makes me unloveable. what would you say#So yeah shout out to her! I am off on a tangent now hehe sorry. thanks for reading if you read this at all!! have a good day :)#jtsys fic#updates

this isnt an au ive talked ab on the dash much its mostly been written on discord but i am thinking heavily about the au where kurt spends his entire teenage years kidnapped and finally escapes a little while after he turned eighteen and the way he has to adjust to the shift in his life from being hostage and conditioned into the lifestyle he lived vs freedom and rediscovering the world and more importantly rediscovering himself
#its a. i like the au. its very fun to really look into the ways trauma affects him at different stages of his life#because i can say confidently that if it had happened when he was older he wouldnt. he would be#when he escapes at 18 he still has this. innocence to him despite all that was done to him. this. whimsy and hope and optimism#but that is all drained out of him long before he was taken if hes taken when hes older and his survival is something he views#less as a miracle and more of a price he has to pay for some unspoken sin#the whole au is. very trigger heavy its not a lighthearted one but i do enjoy delving into the depths of kurt and his responses to horrors#his reaction to finding out he wasnt kidnapped so much as his parents sold him off and then lied to the media#is a very. its a long process to understand that and to process it#it takes him a long time to understand their abuse towards him because he views it as nicer than his captivity#and so he assumes it is good and how things should be which is. not the case at all#going insane over an au only lynn knows about skdjfsdf#anyway i enjoy this au i enjoy dark themes and i enjoy exploring the aftermath and i want to do it more#so pls feel free to yell w me ab this au. or make our own fucked up events au#i just love when things r bad and u have to endure

Tenkamaru's Theme | Oriental Blue: Ao no Tengai | Ichiro Shimakura
#oriental blue#i love at the end how it gets all heroic and emotional despite keeping the beat you'd associate with silly lighthearted songs#to any other fans of the music from mario party 3+4+advance or pokemon tcg i recommend this ost#ichiro shimakura's style is totally there despite this game being so different from the games he's known for
