The heartbreaking thing about Yamace isn't really Yamato not being able to do anything about Ace's death, helpless and on his knees, and realizing he couldn't be free yet. Or Ace dying realizing he wasn't able to keep his promise. But the fact that it was the first time Yamato had ever felt real love and he will never be able to feel that again, his love for Ace remaining still forever because everything stopped that day for them. Ace gave him the gift of feeling so much love in one single night and Yamato spent years without being able to do anything with it.
#'there's love that doesn't have a place to rest but it would've buried you if it had settled on you shoulders' yeah#there's just something about ace's death and the people around him because he was SO loved#and now they have so much love for somebody who can't hold it anymore for them#actually the three things are heartbreaking#sorry i've been watching yamace edit with my fiancé#and now we're both sad#one piece#portgas d. ace#yamato#yamace

Okay. Since we're going over all the takes on Mr. X at this point.. What if his powers really don't have a backside. What if (the state of) his normal life is the backside.
What if his normal life is akin to that of heroes where he has to pretend to be something he's not and follow rules that the people who control his life came up with to further their own goals. What if he can only be free of other people's beliefs and expectations when he's a hero.
What if in reality he truly is like everyone else. The other heroes. The ordinary people. All those who work themselves to the bone, who are tired and overworked and sick of all the exploitation...
What if when he's in the form of the number one hero.. when he becomes the most sought after product on the hero market..
Is when he gains the freedom to truly be himself
#to be hero x#tbhx#hero x#considering one of the first things they revealed to us in the trailers was that he's a white-collar worker...#we definitely need to think about that if we wanna try to predict / guess what he's actually like#this thing feels very lin ling coded but lin ling is tbhx coded (introduction to the main themes of the show)#so I feel like my best prediction rn is that he's actually the other side of the same damn coin#(cue the coin flip clip from the opening *coughs*)#I think from a writing perspective the whole downside thing is based on a characters perception#so if the writers make us think that X is an omnipresent all powerful god#then it just makes sense to reverse it by revealing that the opposite is equally as true#and then he'd have an even stronger incentive to want to break the system cuz both of his lives would've been defined by exploitation#maybe not the bright side of X (at least not after he became No. 1) but I don't think being the best product makes him no longer a product#ACTUALLY#“bright side” was supposed to refer to his hero identity bc of the black & white switch he has going on but#yeah calling his normal self the “dark side of X” would definitely reinforce the idea that it's the not so good parts he hides#and we've not much of normal X yet (other than his sugar stealing. you go boy exploit the company back for sugar. I believe in you) but!#we all know there's darker times coming. right.#I don't think they're gonna reveal his normal life to have a sad backstory or Idk (there's gonna be enough of that elsewhere anyways haha)#but we've definitely only seen the top of the iceberg for now#btw yes I do think capitalism & the CEOs are gonna be the real villains#and X is probably playing their game to win#yes all along you were reading my “X is actually anti-capitalist” propaganda#we're gonna go free heroes (at a cost) :))#ice demon talks#tbhx theories#tbhx analysis

the thing about birthday depression is that birthdays are. fundamentally. the #1 day to be happy that you're alive. Which is hard to do yourself if you're not actually happy to be alive and also the people around you can't win because if they forget (or don't acknowledge it) that feels like evidence that nobody else is happy you're alive either but if they DO try to celebrate it makes you feel guilty for not matching the vibe
#sad! but oh well there are other days (364.3 of them)#there's also the fact for me personally that my birthday is in may which is one of the busiest times in the academic year#and meant i always got shafted in school because there was some of kind of extracurricular event or exams on or around it#one year my chorus concert and my brother's football awards dinner were both on my birthday#and you'll never guess which one our parents went to!#also i straight up did not have friends until i was in high school so I stopped having parties after kindergarten#but that's not what we're talking about right now#like. i hate it. it makes me want to appropriate jehovah's witness culture.

ok, so with this new app releasing in NB.. i've been thinking abt it and had a sort of scary thought
we know how og is slowly but surely declining?? no otaku camps, no exchange, less rewards in ur cards, cuz most of the goodies are in NB.. i actually think this new app might be a full collection of og om's story + event stories for those who completed them. basically finally giving them an excuse to shut down og completely.
what do you guys think the app might be? id be happy to be proven wrong tbh
#it's sad and kinda angering#when nb was announced and the official account did that stream they were so quick to reassure everyone that og wouldn't shut down#that they were capable of running both games side by side#and i swear i remember the official acc saying at some point that nb would be just a spinoff story#(on reddit)#and look where we're at now!!! companies lying to their customers naaww never heard of that concept ever before wym.#what do u ppl think#obey me#obey me nightbringer

No for real tho re: my last tags on that being traumatized by your parents post. my parents are my role models when it comes to a hypothetical future where I have a child, in that I'll take everything they did, showed me, and taught me and do the complete opposite. Like I'm not going to pretend that I'll be perfect and I know it'll be stressful and no matter how careful I am i will inevitably make mistakes, but like I'm committed to not screaming at my child every time they knock something over or drop or spill or even break something. I need it ingrained in my mind if it ever happens that my first priority is to make sure the kid didn't get hurt and then after making sure they're okay, teach my child how to clean up the mess. That's infinitely more of a grace that I was ever shown growing up where I was screamed at the very second I clumsily dropped or knocked over something, unable to take a breath to steady myself bc my mother would be screaming at me if I didn't clean it at lighting speed the very moment it happened. Like is a slightly stained carpet worth all that terror?
#the biggest approval i ever sought and did in fact did miraculously get was both my parents recently saying I'd be a better parent than them#we're on good terms now after i went no contact with them for almost a decade each#and covid really freaked them out bc I'm medically vulnerable and they didn't want me to die resenting them#i got sincere apologies from both of them which is rare in this kind of situation#I'm not angry at them anymore but i still get sad when i think about my childhood

the real star-crossed lovers of btvs are xander and spike, because xander would have been dtf most days if a flimsy enough heterosexual excuse provided itself, except for that one time when he was going after spike for sleeping with anya. unfortunately for him, that is probably also the only time spike would have been down to smash.
#not a s4 spander truther because i think if they had fucked both of them would have left town#(obv without telling the other and then they would run into each other when someone's car breaks down#and then they'd REALLY be stuck together. isolated from the rest of the scoobies. you know for the drama/comedy)#that one ends on a pretty toothless 'we're not FRIENDS now but we do have a begrudging respect for each other'#anyways in general i think spike could only be attracted to a xander that's not insecure and repressed#but xander could only be attracted to spike while insecure and repressed#sad!#buffyposting#btvs

tagged by: @im-not-a-monster
EDT: ah shit we forgot to tag ppl like a dumbass. uh..... you. you reading this right now (if u want to anyway)
#we tried to mostly limit ourself to fav characters ppl might have a chance of knowing lol#but we did include the fandom/series they're from#and the Firekeeper series - which we assume is the one most ppl won't know - is a v good book series#like. if u were ever a Wolf Girl TM (or anything even close to one) u should go read that series right now#we also tried not to double dip into fandoms which is why Luke Leia and Han aren't up there too lol#man this was honestly so hard we have so many favorites xD#good challenge#other favs/honorable mentions include: Kel (also Tortal) Astarion (yes we know shut up he's so well done) Joe Becker from the Acorna series#also like. every main character from both Avatar cartoons bc those slap#also fucking Juhani from the star wars knights of the old republic game stars we lovelovelove that sad lesbian kitty#also most of Liam's characters from critical role. and Beau and Ashton and Laudna and Fearne#lol yeah. see why this was hard? we're so bad at picking just five

something about being told im 'the leading person at this whole academy when it comes to interpretation and stage intelligence' by the husband of the woman im trying (not really. but i mean. who knows) to seduce... ok boy you got me. lets make it a polycule.
#im playing it all cool and funny now but atm i legit burst into tears lol#like he said i have a 'good voice too of course' but i know realistically that is not my strongest asset#and even if i were technically perfect. which im NOT lol. the voice itself is just nothing special. it's there ig but that's about it#but its nice to know i may not be 100% useless after all#(just 90%)#also apparently the most feared and respected professor who came to the concert said. again. that he likes me the most.#which again. crying real actual tears about this all rn this means literally the world to me this is everything i have#and i have no one to share this with because im not gonna say it to my uni friend cause i dont want her to feel like im boasting or sth#(even tho she has no such qualms herself but probably because i know how. not great. it feels when someone keeps talking about themselves#and about how great they are and how easy everything is for them. i dont wanna do it back at her.#well there's also the fact that i dont think im great and this is not fucking easy to me at all lol#but idk i think the difference between us is that she actually admitted she sees no point in singing if she cant show off (thus she hates#the duet we're singing because she sings the lower part and cant show off her high notes or coloratura.#which is like. an insane take to me. i mean it i get it. kinda. if i had a voice like hers maybe id be like that too fuck knows.#but that just feels so. idk. sad to me. so self obsessed and empty. like you dont care about the music itself? about you being a part of it?#also immediately made singing with her not fun anymore. i thought we were creating something TOGETHER. but thanks for the confirmation#that you only really care about being 'better than'. yikes.#like idk this behaviour is funny and iconic in old school opera legends like yes go bite each others dicks off.#but it hits completely different when it's your own colleague let alone your friend. like damn girl. damn)#) anyway. the husband is kinda hot too now that i think of it. i really should seduce them both.#except its realistically not possible since they've both seen me cry now (she saw it like a hundred times lol)#so ive lost the hot and mysterious card alas. no uni professors romance for me

ANyway anyway.#i refuse to believe or give into that. it just makes me sad that so many ppl fucking want it lol#that so many ppl think it would Fix™ smth like. hes some kind of problem. like youre evil bro#i desperately need him happy#things are so much less fun#also despite hot starts for others. this season does not feel like we're doing our best on the whole or even that good tbhglksdj which#another point toward my we-go-as-mitch-goes analysis#we're sitll winning the stanley cup tho. i believe

accidentally* brainstormed a very complete outline for chapters 4-8 for eih, which should theoretically take us through Part 1. which is. you know. a godsend or whatever.
*accidentally meaning i was just eating delicious pancakes and the thoughts happened. usually its me crying screaming and shitting myself in front of an empty word document where ideas manifest. this is notably much more pleasant.
#that alone makes this weekend a good one#i also bought (leased) a new car yesterday!!!#which is exciting for me because i've been driving my first car for 16 years#even though its a base model its still SO much more advanced#hello how did i live without a backup camera of this long#also like. carplay. and auto windshield wipers. and keyless entry/start. and adjustable steering wheel#AND its electric! kinda. (a plug-in hybrid so has both engines but can run on only electric)#i've finally joined the 21st century#although tbh i thought my first car of my adult life may be something bougie. a BMW or some shit#alas i grew up to be too practical. so i bought a prius. because of course.#listen i live in california and wanted to go electric for forever#alas elon shat the bed by being elon so a tesla was an absolute no go#its funny like... you know that most of your customers for these cars were well-off environment-conscious liberals right#i've seen a tesla with a bumper that says 'i bought this before i knew elon was crazy'#which. like. yeah. fair#other fun events from last week. there was a fire super close to our house and we were in the evacuation zone#which is like. wow. i know its been dry and windy but i never thought it would actually happen HERE#everything is okay and we're safe and it was put out really fast#but definitely gave us a pause and made us think about whats important (our cat. everything else is replaceable.)#but another reason this weekend is good: it RAINED. last night and today.#listen i've been... extremely extremely extremely sad the past week#because of everything. because of 'allowance' of ice agents hospitals and thinking about what i would do and risk because FUCK THEM#suffering isn't moral and doesn't help anyone. just trying to find a way to help my community#and three nice things happening AND just hearing the border fire is under control...#its going to be okay. it really is.#anyway this post is about FANFICTIOn#fun fact i started looking into numerology that has to do with ying-yang#which is helping me decide on how many chapters per 'part'#its clever and unnecessary but makes me happy so whatever#chapter 4 of eih is ~2k works now as a mostly-outline

just saw a reel where this woman was complaining that when jeff bezos and elon musk became billionaires, they were praised for their hard work but when taylor swift and beyonce did it they were accused of selling their souls, and i'm trying not to be mean, but it is really amusing that women in most states of america do not even have basic civil rights (like the right to an abortion) but are spending most of their time defending a billionaire's right to brag about how much money they have, like girl what about YOUR money? what about YOUR civil rights? how is them being lauded for their wealth going to do anything for you?
#like ok. we clap for b*yonce and t*ylor swift and we call that feminism. now what?#who did this liberate? how did this help YOU?#why are you treating their individualistic success and pursuit of wealth as something that benefits ALL women?#i get the argument that they pave ways in music. and i certainly agree#i think both women are talented and deserve praise for their artistry#but at some point you have got to spend more time defending yourself than you do defending people who are so astronomically#out of your tax bracket lol#i dont think this is healthy or even remotely productive#just say the songs are good you don't need to be batting for them. it's real sad esp in the current political climate yall are in#if b*yonce and t*ylor get invited to the boys' club it's literally just an achievement for them. the rest of you are still going to be poor#how sad of a society do we live in where we vicariously celebrate the achievements of the uber rich while we're struggling to make rent?

sucks to think i'll never play football or halo 2 or anything with my brother ever again
#he's not dead or anything#we're both just growing up and having our own lives now#i've never been particularly close to him#but still i'm very sentimental and the thought of it is just sad to me#like man....we're really never gonna play games together again#honestly it's a little funny-sad precisely because we were never that close#like if you had told me 15 years ago there'd come a time when i'd miss playing games with him#i'd have laughed at you#and yet here i am#life's weird

Oh, hi. I uploaded Chapter 11 of Down With the Rickness over a week ago on Ao3, ff dot net, and of course here on Tumblr, but I just realized today I didn't post the links. Sorry - between work at pays-the-bills-job being crazy more often than not, having four posts to work on for the social media part of my volunteer job, and then me getting sick, It. Has. Been. A. Week.
Anyway, here's the Ao3 link for Chapter 11! Ff dot net link will be up in a few minutes. Chapter 12 is mostly typed out and should be posted in a few days (barring real life throwing some bullshit at me to delay that happening).
Also, here -have this picture of me and Rick Bear from a few nights ago.

#rick and morty#rick and morty fanfic#rick and morty fanfiction#sickfic#down with the rickness#my fic#my writing#we're getting close to the end of the fic now#and i'm sad about that because i have loved sharing it with all of you so much#rick sanchez#morty smith#space beth#summer smith#beth smith#jerry's mentioned in this chapter but not actually in it#he's too busy sulking about his “brilliant” plan being dumb#ao3 link#ao3#archive of our own#fanfiction#i received#i received a super nice (and long) comment on this chapter on ao3 i still need to reply to#and if the person who wrote that also happens to see this here on tumblr:#please know that I absolutely love your self-described overanalyzing of my fic#and have only not replied due to lack of both time and social battery
