yet again thinking abt that entry in amity's diary that said "i called my teacher mom again"

and how that's not too unusual for little kids to do, but for a teenager to do that *multiple times* generally means there's something deeper going on there

and we learned that yeah, amity's definitely got plenty of mom-related issues

now what i'm really curious about is the exact reason

was it the more bittersweet reason that amity was so starving for parental affection that her brain immediately latched on to the teacher as a parental figure the minute they gave her positive attention/praise?

or was it the even sadder possibility, where the teacher was *scolding* her, and she automatically called them "mom" as a fear response?

#eliot posts #toh #the owl house #amity blight #odalia blight #listen i know that line was prolly mostly a joke but it has been living in my brain rent free ever since i first heard it #i want to give amity a warm blanket and some hot cocoa and a loving family so badly #someone once described her as ''such a little darling'' and that description has lived in my head ever since #bc she IS such a little darling #i want nothing bad to happen to her ever again <3 #she is both my daughter and my baby sister

sorry but do you ever think about the fact that the bernard we have today is a direct amalgamation of everything that happened in his past and i know that sound like such an obvious statement to say but it actually kills me to know that you can draw a direct line from who he is today all the way back to that sixteen year old boy who watched his best friend bleed out. like it is the defining moment in his life. it fundamentally shaped who he is and the person he's become. he is the bernard we know and love not despite the grieves shooting but because of it. because the gangs all got together and shot up his school. because tim walked out of that room with nothing but a baseball bat. because his darla got shot. because he watched her gasp and cry as she died. because he watched the blood coagulate around the wound. because he sat there and held her hand as her life drained out of her. because he walked into school that day with a joke he knew would make her laugh and her nose would scrunch up and she'd snort a little and tim would roll his eyes at him and call him ridiculous and instead he walked out with a bloody white shirt, blood under his fingernails, and two friends less. because, even now, almost half a decade out from the shooting, he thinks that if he closes his eyes, he will always be that stupid, scared little sixteen year old, holding the cooling body of dead best friend.

#there is a direct throughline from the boy we meet in robin 121 all the way to man tim reconnects with in urban legends 4 #like maybe you guys have other interpretations of it but to me this is *the* defining moment in his life #and that's not to say that he perpetually bound to this traumatic event but it impacted him sooo much that his life is now divided #before shooting and after shooting #like you cannot tell me him falling into the cult was just something that happened to him #it happened bc he was in such a bad place from watching his friend die and then on top of that he loses contact with tim!!!!#this is his canon event!!!!#if you took it away from him if you made it so that he never had to go through it #the bernard we would get would not be the same bernard we got in urb leg4 and tdr #does it not make you want to chew on drywall that to get to the bear we love he has watch his darla die first????#head in hands head in hands #and it wasnt like batman came immediately after darls died!!! iirc they had to wait a little before he came #which means!!!!! alll those kids but bear esp had to sit in that room with darls' dead body until batman came!!!!!#do you think he cried and held her hand until batman came??? do you think he begged her not to go??? or do you think he told her #stories and made promises of all the things they were gonna do after they got out??? do you think he put pressure on the wound and #watched as the blood soaked through the jacket they were using as a towel??? and when she finally passed do you think he bit his lip #clean through to stop himself from wailing? bc if he's too loud the gunmen will hear them and he cannot be the reason jay from #history dies #auuuugh i cant fucking do this anymore #bernard dowd #timbern #darla aquista #louis grieve trio

AHA thank u i was mostly just. frantically pulling the "no hetero" card bc farcille is super super always endgame for me and the "marcille has two hands" thing is absolutely not for me and my personal characterization of marcille

i like. can't find it anymore for some reason but there was a farcille fic set just after the shuro confrontation where laios reaches over to hold marcille's hand and ask her if she likes him or if she's just tolerating him too and it was so. the vulnerability. the puppyness.

that safety and security he must feel in knowing that she wears her heart on her sleeve and he will always know when she's unhappy with him because she will absolutely let it be known. the way that falin's first revival was the turning point for the way he felt about her because, for the first time in his life, protecting falin wasn't something he had to shoulder alone. there was finally someone else who cared about her as much as he did (in his eyes, resenting his parents for failing to protect her) and would stop at nothing to save her. the way it must have been proof for him that, not only was falin not alone anymore, he wasn't alone anymore.

idk why i like rather than dislike the fact that his only framework for parsing how he feels about "the first girl other than his sister that he's ever cared this much about" is a comphet romantic lens. like he would have the autism moment of fully assuming that he's in love with her for a while and just like. not? doing anything about it? because he doesn't feel the urge to, nor is he sad that he knows marcille would mostly likely never "feel the same way" about him?

like. he "figures out" that he's "in love with marcille" with all the passion of printing out a label and sticking it onto a favourite scrapbook for organizational purposes. he's equally happy to be her husband or brother-in-law so long as it means she stays close and is part of his family.

i know logically i should hate it but it's sooo crunchy to me. my comphet besties ever. designated plus one and dance partner to all fancy and formal occasions. having actual real chemistry but the "romantic" part of it is some weird shapeshifter smokescreen. augh

#asks #tunnel anon #screencapped so it doesn't show up in the l*imar tag #anyway don't read these tags if lesbian marcille is your truth. you're real for that and i would never oppose that #but i guess im in the bisexual marcille camp for a couple of reasons (first and foremost being that ryoko kui is like.#a fabulous incredibly likely bisexual and marcille is clearly her Specialest Little Guy so it feels only fair)#so technically laios and marcille “dating” is a possibility in my head but such an insanely depressing one that i don't give it much though #like yeah sure marcille is capable of being attracted to him and even having feelings for him if he pursued her intensely enough #but that's the paradox. he wouldn't.#once again. equally happy to be her husband or brother in law bc he doesn't understand being attracted to women #and dearest marcille needs more than that.#little neurotic dragoness bunny who needs to be desired and wanted with an all-consuming passion #hopeless romantic freakassishly monogamous cringe darling who needs to be “the one” for her partner in order to thrive in a relationship #because she wants to be given as good as she's giving and nothing less (and boy does she give!! she gives her everything!!)#so i vastly prefer her never developing feelings for him bc he never decides to pursue her in a way she can't ignore #over them getting together and her self-esteem taking hit after hit as he demonstrates no romantic passion for her #like yes it's toxic and ridiculous. but let's be so real. if someone blatantly flirted with her and he did nothing and felt nothing #she'd be crying herself to sleep feeling unwanted and unessential and ��not even worth getting jealous abt” bc she's Like That.#while he starts to hate himself more and more for not being able to give her what she needs #kissing them on the head and tucking them safely into my personal canon. i could never do that to them.#also marcille being the first and foremost thing that laios and falin “fight” over in a way where falin is finally able to assert herself i #yknow??

woah it’s another pdbc post. could not get the whole running into a china cabinet thing out of my head

rest in peace my girl Bellona u were a real one 😔✊

+ another one since she was on my mind

#not a pikmin post #pdbc #mentioned this on my alt but while I was shadowing at the vet clinic #the tech was showing me how the schedule works and I saw an appointment for a cat named Bella with a note saying:#‘ran head first into a china cabinet’#and like. poor baby but also that is an interesting mental picture #speaking of which I’d sell my kidney to become a vet tech but you need to be good at math!!! aaaaaargh #I am not exaggerating when I say that little fact makes it feel like my hopes and dreams are being shattered right before me #oh well that’s kinda heavy and if I think about it any more I’ll get upset again so uh #here. PDBC stuff. I’ll scream into the void about it until you all care #fun fact though! like I said the cat’s name was Bella which is not what my darling step-oc’s name is nor what it was in the original #BUUUUT she was actually referred to as bella by mistake whilst I was conversing with the og author bc they didn’t remember her name #interesting right? (NO ITS NOT)#art

part of me is so so tempted to make like.

an afk arena fanfic thats short and sweet and like some stories about eugavus & their kids, mainly during the time where they are still looking for a new living space after the prison break

mainly bc i have two little ideas i wanna do ,,,,

#afk arena #afk eugene #afk gavus #afk liberta #afk lucilla #eugavus #i think #that they deserve to have a fanfic dedicated to that little portion of their life #like the ups the downs and what have you #imagine gavus and eugene learning their funny silly little baby girl uses unnecessary violence now #and she doesnt see the issue with it bc to her its justified usage #imagine they see their little darling sleepy boy whos so willing to put himself in the grip of death #because his magic is built for healing and he sees it as the most logical thing to do #but also imagine eugene showing lucilla how to channel that unnecessary violence into something more clever #hes not saying get rid of it hes saying turn it into necessary violence #‘’so you wont get told off by your papa’’ kinda deal #imagine gavus sitting liberta down after a particularly bad day full of disagreements on how liberta uses his magic #and admitting to liberta that yes he can heal himself but its scary every time for gavus and eugene and lucilla #that the reason they keep getting upset isnt bc theyre mad at liberta but terrified that he’ll take a hit for them #for his PARENTS (the people who are supposed to be protecting him)#and he won’t get up #yeah i have thougthts anyways

😭😭😭 My dog, who we couldn't touch for months, didn't even expect to for a year, my little fearful puppy. Just climbed full into my lap when I sat down for a cleaning break. Let me have my arms around her, petting. Let me nuzzle my face into her back and give her kisses. Licked my hands, arms, and face the entire time. I full on SNUGGLED my fearful dog for the first time. I could smell her and she smells vaguely fruity. 😭😭😭

#fbw rambles #my pets #Emma pup #fearful dogs #rescue dog #she is so brave and getting so comfortable and she loves with ALL of her #i adore this little dog so much #we've gotten so so lucky with her #she's just darling #also a little monster bc that's how that works

I love Homelander so damn much that I'm jealous of this new character that apparently may be a love interest - the sparkler lady 😭 I'm so dumb lol But I just want him to stay single so I can self ship damnit She is super pretty tho and has a cool outfit but I want her over THERE so I can have Homie

aww darling, don't you fret! totally valid to have mixed or negative feelings. i don't think you're dumb. you're attached, and we already know that our brains don't efficiently differentiate between fictional and real crushes. if it makes you feel any better, i sincerely doubt any canonical love interest is going to go well for Homelander lol i hope there can at least be some excitement for the inevitable inspiration all us writers are gonna get from HL having a love interest again. i can't stomach any of the scenes with SF, so i'm really excited about the prospect of getting some food i can actually enjoy between him and Firecracker, however fucked up and weird it might be (fingers crossed for fucked up and weird in ways i specifically enjoy)

i agree with you in that i really like her design, and her accent is super cute. i'm practically vibrating at the thought of getting to see Homelander being a giddy boyfriend. i just know the whole fandom is gonna pop off when season 4 drops, and there will still be lots and LOTS of fic for the self shippers and x reader enjoyers 🖤

#like just thinking about it in this ask here gave me sooo many ideas hhhhhhh #i will say sorry in advance for people who preemptively don't like firecracker bc i already love her and i want to kiss her on the mouth #she's a redhead okay!!! it's not my fault!! i'm not to blame!!! (mea culpa. mea culpa)#her little salute and smile have cast a witch's spell upon my dick!!!! (mea culpa)#it's not my fault if in gods plan he made a redhead so much stronger than a lesbian!!! (mea culpa)#ask and you shall receive #darling anon #homelander x reader #the boys spoilers #the boys season 4

#sin scribbles #bloodborne oc ; ruza #good hunter bloodborne #hunter bloodborne #(she is my angel alright her and her little fangs.)#(its quite rare she will actually bare them in earnest since she only usually does so when she is pissed off or thirsty lmao)#(otherwise she tends to be mindful of hiding them)#(her fangs are very smol compared to other hunters. and all hunters have them in my personal lil universe lmao.)#(i lovingly refer to ruzas fangs as kitten fangs. aloysha tho? dagger mouth.)#(i love drawing teeth have i said that enough 😂😂😂 aloysha exists to relieve my urge to draw them constantly)#(but ruza my baby my pretty girl my angel my darling my yharnam rose-)#(A ROSE NEEDS HER THORNS!!!! OKAY!!!!!! DAMN)#(part one of the mega ruza brainrot posting 😂😂😂 i divided them into 3 bits bc there were too many odds and ends akfkdkd to post together)

jane has a very warped, toxic relationship with the void, which stems particularly from her time with her friends, in the early days, opposed to her time in hawkins lab. she expects punishment in the lab for noncompliance, which is why she does everything papa asks of her, in fear for what may happen if she refuses. she soon comes to believe that her only use in the party is to find will, or they'll “send her back to pennhurst or wherever she comes from.” it’s a different kind of punishment, but the pressure to comply is the same. jane gets her first taste of freedom in season one, but still spends it imprisoned and in a role where so much of her is demanded physically and mentally. the scene especially in episode seven, when they're all around joyce's dining table, talking about her like she's a machine, proves this tenfold. at this point, she is off in the bathroom, looking at herself in the mirror, crying because she can't help these people. a twelve year old girl who has never been outside in her life, crying because she's letting these strangers down… and they're doing absolutely nothing to help her along with it. to make her feel secure and safe.

mike: but she's drained. dustin: like a bad battery. joyce: well, how do we make her better? mike: we don't. we just have to wait and try again. nancy: well, how long?!

it's all well and good when joyce tells her that she's right there for her when jane enters the void, tells her she is brave. but they are all, for the most part, willing to sacrifice her, her feelings, her safety, to get will back. they don't know the void, and while jane is physically there with them, they have no idea what it could do to her. i understand joyce is his mum, of course she'll stop at nothing until will is returned, but it doesn't justify the way jane is treated and spoken about like she isn't even there. joyce should be on her hands and knees thanking jane for traumatising herself to find her son. and hopper literally selling her out to the hawkins lab people, putting her back in brenner's custody don't even get me startedddd. like she isn't a little girl, like she matters less than will does. she is basically treated like a metal detector for the better part of the season. [like a dog. like a makeshift girlfriend. she's placed into so many different roles and uses by these people, and is never given a chance to determine what she may want.] i understand that no time could really be wasted in terms of finding will, but if even one of them had asked her how she felt, if she needed to take a break, it would have made all the difference. she would have pushed herself regardless, but at least it would have shown that not only will mattered.

but no one did ask. and it leaves jane feeling like it's okay to sacrifice herself to the void; it leaves her treating the void like it's less dangerous, less unknown than it really is. they are her friends, she loves these people, so if they say it’s fine for her to do this, then she believes it, and never stops believing it. this ties in so nicely to the debate between max and mike regarding her powers in season three: mike thinking jane should limit herself to keep safe, and max arguing that it's up to jane, that she knows her own limits. where in reality, she doesn't know any limits, because she was never taught to have them. [i don't specifically blame the boy's in this instance, because they were just kids in season one, but joyce and hopper, even nancy and jonathan, could've stepped up.] if anyone told her back then, when she was even more impressionable than she is now, that if she was scared, if she didn't want to do it, she didn't have to. she still would have, of course, but then and there it would have instilled the fact that she had choices. so when mike proclaims that it's not good for her to be in there for that long, jane thinks nothing of it, because she should have been told these things three years prior. it leaves her using the void like it's no big deal, never taking a minute to consider how it could be affecting her body and mind.

#study. come my darling homeward bound.#everyone just. thinks about themselves. where for five minutes they could have (should have) made jane their priority.#of course nancy is traumatised about barb’s death.#but jane had to SEE it.#she comes out of the void scrambled and scared. and yes joyce holds her close but.#she should have been apologised to. sorry that she had to see what she saw.#ALSO THIS IS NO SHADE TO ANY OF THE ST CHARACTERS.#i literally love all of them.#they hardly knew what they were dealing with and turned to jane bc she seemed to know the most.#but it's just interesting to me because if only one of them had have said to her that she didn't need to do it.#that it was dangerous and she was just a little girl.#it could have very easily changed her relationship with the void and what jane thinks her friends expect of her.#not to mention the direct parallels of everyone watching her in the bath in episode seven.#just like all the hawkins lab people watched her in the tanks.#like she’s still performing for them. she’s still working because at the end of the day they want what she can provide. not her.

For those wondering what happened after my Arlejean rant from like last year. Mental illness took over. I am cooking.

#genshin impact #jean gunnhildr #arlecchino #ship chart #artists on tumblr #bc i drew both of their little profiles #the ship chart isnt mine tho #but OMG IM SO INSANE ABOUT THEM #i am FULLY on board with Arlecchino falling first but not doing anything about it because of the consequences for both of them #but then Jean falls harder and confesses oops #also #bloody sweaty intense duels just for the fun of it #i have a post-duel drabble i might post bc im soooo normal about them #ok last headcanon for the tags but Arlecchino calling Jean “darling” to get under her skin until she realizes that she actually means it #she gaslights herself and keeps calling her that anyways but Jean knows smths different bc Arle's voice is softer when she says it to her #RAAAAHHH I LOVE ENEMIES TO LOVERS FORBIDDEN ROMANCE #please stay with me on this guys trust this is gonna be top ship on AO3 once I get outta school #1 million billion works gang
