#and it traces back to this

The character was based off of -like any good character is based off of- several friends, some of whom are not with us anymore, and several experiences as a teenager, and places and people I've gotten to be and things that profoundly had effects on me.
I've been listening to Molly's playlist, which I'm sure I have to put out now, which is waay harder to listen to because - there's a lot in there. But like there's a song off the soundtrack of Wristcutters because that was, that movie had a lot of that good carnie family vibe and how carnie families work and sort of how these weird, bitchy people take care of each other and there was- for many years, there was an archetype in film, in storytelling that was very much this kind of character and I haven't seen this character in anything in a long time. And I've barely- I've read a couple things that people have written where they've kind of gotten this notion of:
'You're supposed to live your life and there's a way of both not giving a fuck about what people think, but giving a fuck about people.'
And he was never a character who needed to be fixed and he was never a character who needed permission for anything and its- I mean, you go in with a character like Iron Man where you're, like, waiting to watch them become a good person or you go with a character like Captain America where its 'I want to see this good person's effect on the world' and he was never- there was never going to be a profound change in Molly. His whole notion was just his perspective and how it affected everything around him. It was- he never had any unfinished business.
His only unfinished business was just barreling through every person he ever met and making them deal with him. Yeah, make people deal with you, but make sure dealing with you is always a positive and kind experience. Yeah.
-Taliesin on the beauty of Molly and what he hopes people take from him
#dont mind me crying#i'll be fine just-#i just love him#and by him i mean both Molly and Taliesin#all of Taliesin's art is just top shelf to me#you know the moment I irrevocably loved Molly?#it was way back in Alfield when he jumped in on making breakfast like it was nothing#something about that was so intriguing in his character build#and it traces back to this#absolutely this#this is what it was#mollymauk#critical role#the mighty nein#critical role spoilers#the mighty nein spoilers#cr 2x26#ainulindaelynn

Finished :D
#Let me know if you want to learn about the process for this one#full disclosure: I roughly traced my reference image#because I didn't want to hold myself back with anatomy and proportions when all I wanted to do for this was studying colour#and trying to find the right colour balance#studying texture and how to render things...#I really like how this turned out!#I have a few more leyendecker studies planned but this is finished for now#malevolent podcast#digital art#artists on tumblr#malevolent#arthur lester#arthur lester malevolent

can’t help but think of how, if we choose to go by sirius’ characterisation as a private, arrogant teen who only lets a select few into his circle, sirius’ post-azkaban life just have been such an utterly humiliating experience for him.
especially OoTP. when he has all these near strangers in his childhood house, that he hated and loved and ran away from and couldn’t ever escape. if he spent his entire pre-azkaban existence building a cold and aloof persona, not letting people know what his home life had been like, then to have all of these people get a front row seat to it because of kreacher and portrait walburga’s shenanigans must have been near unbearable. to have the entire order, including snape whom he disliked and mistrusted, hear the kinds of names he’s being called.
not only does he have to deal with the retraumatisation of his childhood, but also the fact that he’s flayed open for everyone to see. it’s not only his freedom, innocence, dignity that has been snatched from him but his privacy also. it’s such a cruel thing to experience, on top of everything else.
to have literal children, his godson who he has been kept away from all this while, whom he presumably wants to be able to look up to him, to have him see into the deepest parts of his soul. to have to be so weak in front of him. not only is he subjected to such vileness but he also cannot do anything about it.
sirius has not had a moment of peace in all the time we knew him. it is indignity upon indignity that is heaped onto him. every other character has gotten a moment of respite but him. it fully breaks my heart.
#sirius black#i am in the mood to sob tonight clearly#i just#was reading a fic#where it recounted walburga ad kreacher’s screams and taunts#and it suddenly hit me how humiliating they are?#like#even if it’s an inanimate object and a house elf#to be called an embarrassment and shame of my flesh and filth#by the only remaining members of your family#and to have it be traced back to your family#to know that your mother was alive but did not care that u were in azkaban#and that everyone else knows it too now#to walk around in every corner of your childhood house and be able to see exactly how u grew up#no boundaries no limits#to have other people keep touching parts of your family with the audacity to throw them out#and move it around#to call your home names#i just. cannot imagine.#the level of helplessness he was operating with#is it really any wonder he was the way he was#hell. he was actually so much better than he should’ve been#lesser men would’ve been catatonic or going off on a rage fuelled warpath#it’s so embarrassing to have your parent even correct u in front of friends sometimes#and to hear all this abuse. shouted at you.#and not one person ever stands up for him#or shows him any empathy#i’m actually amazed that even after all these years i’m able to find new tragedies in sirius life#HAS THAT MAN NOT BEEN THROUGH ENOUGH#pen’s notes

alexandria's genesis on that magazine cover is crazy (positive)
It’s REAL and it’s SOSOSO TRAGIC isn’t she SO BRAVE and BEAUTIFUL ? You should buy her STAR-SHINE ™️ clothing line so YOU TOO can ALSO BE BRAVE and BEAUTIFUL like her.
#the real horrors were ppl trying to us things all along#miraculous ladybug#mlb la terreur au#miraculous ladybug and chat noir#silu responds#lt galattaca girls#don’t buy star-shine products btw they will be called back in 2004 because the dye had dangerous traces of asbestos and lead in it

Let's talk about that CaitVi Scene
For me, what made this scene impactful has to do more with the fact that the prison cell is the physical representation of Vi's mind more than the fact that it's where they first met. (Although the latter does add merit to Fortiche's capacity for telling circular narratives.)
We know this because we see Fortiche use this same motif in S108, where we see half of Vi behind bars and the other half unobstructed, which signifies how Vi is torn between going back to help her sister and helping Caitlyn take the gemstone back.
In this context, though, Vi is shackled by the mantra, “Whatever happens, it’s on you,” and we know this because Vi admits it herself, “I choose wrong every time. And because of it, I’ve lost everyone.”
And the implication of Caitlyn unlocking this cell and entering this space—this space filled with emotional and physical scars, this space haunted by phantom pains and memories with teeth—was just like an “I got you” moment, the perfect affirmation that finally releases Vi from the shackles of this inherited responsibility.
Caitlyn not only predicted it, but she actively took measures that enabled Vi to free Jinx safely. By doing this, Caitlyn implicitly confirmed that Vi didn't choose wrong this time and that she wasn't alone in the decision to offer Jinx a second chance.
I know some people have their own opinions about them doing it in a jail cell without explicitly talking about what happened between them in Act 1, but as much as I appreciate the idea of open communication, romance, and making love in a bed, I understand why they saved the talking for later. After all, facing imminent doom and Armageddon can influence people to rush into things.
All jokes aside, there is one thing about this scene that makes my heart ache with joy: that Vi finally has one memory that outshines all that was made in the prison cell. And that memory is of warmth, a gentle touch, and soft eyes—the only memory that matters.
And for me, that's enough.
#caitvi#caitlyn kiramman#vi#arcane#arcane season two#arcane spoilers#spoilers#this was a reply to someone a few days back but i just thought id post it as its own cause the other one takes up wayyy too much space#and it still makes me want to sob to think about the years of torture vi had to endure in a cell#and the fact that her last time is filled with so much warmth and love and softness#with gentle hands soothing the edges of those healing wounds and tracing the path to tomorrow#kali rambles#mine#not art

It's really important to remember that pretty much everything that happens in the kingdom hearts series is because two teens had a weird homoerotic friendship and then their entire highschool class was murdered
