Maybe you have a cold distant f/o, or maybe one who was traumatized, forced to be strong due to their circumstances for whatever reason. Now, imagine allowing them to be soft. Letting them show their emotions, treating them delicately, giving them some gentle affection, and just spoiling them. It takes them a while to get used to it, but they love it so much. They love that they can feel vulnerable and sensitive around you, and that it won't be punished. Sometimes they don't always want to be strong, and they feel safer around you for treating them so preciously.

prefacing by saying: every situation is unique. this is not a blanket statement

so I have dealt with the suicide of a friend, and it really seemed like it was just something he had made his mind about. he had lots of friends, a good home, loving parents with a close relationship. and he still died. and in response some people who knew him said they felt guilt, like they should have done more. and this is natural, this is just grief. but at the same time, I think its worth mentioning, that people don’t respect the decisions of the suicidal. its a reaction that is ultimately selfish (in a morally neutral sense of the word, not a character judgement). But people don’t see it that way! they see it as selfless martyrdom, they center themselves in the projected feelings of the deceased, thinking of all the ways they could have been a hero.

Maybe it just isn’t about you, or what you could have done. maybe he just didn’t like being alive, and you can be glad to know you were at least a bit of light in his life anyway.

Pred: *isn't feeling well*

Prey: *Offers to be a snack to make them feel better*

Pred: *noms*

Prey: *arrives in belly, only to realize that the reason Pred wasn't feeling well is because they haven't eaten anything the entire day*

*Scene cuts to Pred feeling embarassed while Prey is scolding them from inside their belly about a healthy diet and the importance of regular meals*

kim's "you have more to give than you think anyone can take" is so interesting actually. because like, surface level it's like "huh. does eddie think that?" because yeah, he's a romantic. he has so much love caged inside of his chest. but in each of his relationships the issue has been that he wasn't able to give enough. not because they couldn't handle it but because he couldn't. like, there is a very distinct pattern in all of eddie's romantic relationships that he wasn't able to give enough. even with shannon, especially with shannon actually. she didn't cause the pattern, she was the first in the pattern. so it stands to reason that eddie's more to give than he thinks anyone could take is something else entirely, then. it stands to reason that it's more than anyone could take (including himself, in fact probably he is at the top of that list of anyone) because what he has to give is not something he has ever allowed himself to name because it's too big, too much. which, well. it's queer, right? it makes the most sense. eddie's more to give is queer love. like, season seven firmly established that eddie has all of this catholic guilt tangled up inside of him, and it's also been established in the past that from a very young age there was this expectation (from his father, particularly) to be a man. which obviously he has internalised. it's not simply that he has so much love to give that he thinks nobody can handle it. it's that on some subconscious level (at least at the moment) he knows that it's WHO THAT LOVE IS FOR i.e. not a woman, i.e. BUCK, that he thinks no one (himself, his family, the catholic church) can handle.

“All pieces must come to an end, but that does not mean anything for the love they encompass. Regulus’ bow works overtime as he spirals down to the final few pitches, soft but just as passionate as the climax. Regulus ends, not on a terminal cadence, but a progressive one. A promise of more.”

I need musical theater autistics and train autistics to join forces for a sec and tell me what kind of train you think they have in Hades Town.

There's something about the animation in Scavenger's Reign that makes the body horror elements simultaneously more horrific and more palatable.

Here's the playlist for my Joi4 goes karaoke series

Disclaimer: I've never in my life done a playlist for any character on any fandom I've been. I think I've never been into something like I've been with Gintama, and I've been obsessed about a lot of stuff. Bear with me?

In the order I drew 'em:

Zura (includes change of costumes, make up, light and smoke show, inflatable back dancers, fake duets) Total Eclipse of the Heart by Bonnie Tyler Wuthering Heights by Kate Bush You Don't Bring Me Flowers by Barbara Streisand and Neil Diamond Olvídame y pega la vuelta by Pimpinela

Takasugi (includes shamisen solo + crazy fans in the back) No Children by The Mountain Goats I Can't Decide by Scissor Sisters Girl's Not Grey by AFI (obligatory emo track) Y yo No Bailo by El Pez (Menudo cover. I feel like if Sugi's gonna sing it, he would prefer to sing this more rock n' roll version)

I also added some b-sides for a lot of extra characters

Kagura and Shinpachi Never Ending Story Theme Song by New Found Glory (huge fan of this cover) Growing Up by The Linda Lindas (This has to be the youngest song here)

Diamond Perfume (Tae, Kyuubei kun, Sacchan and Tsukki) No Controles by Flans (BANGER ALERT even if you don't know Spanish)

the the fact that… sage wants a family. but like. eggman is a bad person. sage.. wants a family like sonic’s……. but eggman is selfish. sage’s main function is for eggman.. he’s her dad… but not a good one. she knows he isnt.. that’s why she cries while seeing tails and sonics bond.. because she knows she’ll never get something like that from her dad…. she’ll never get the same selfless kindness and respect sonic gave to her than her own creator…. no matter how much he tries to care for her she knows it’s because she’s just an accessory.. and she’s ‘happy’ to live with that.. ough… ,,.. sage honey i’ll get you out of there along with your brothers..

been thinking about this kinda thing a lot~~ what would happen if.....

fun post to offset the anxiety one~~

how would the samurai or other devil summoners deal with an opponent from a bullet hell style game? like if they were in their turf and had to fight by their rules? or vice versa?

would the demons have their own hitboxes? would their demons count in their life stock? would summoning one count as using a bomb resulting in a screen clear? would they give different shot types based on their affinities and weaknesses?

how would they shoot back at the opponent if they were locked into bullet hell game rules? guns probably, if swordplay was impossible due to range and density of bullets. would grazing them do anything beneficial or just take health away? or damage their clothes or anything?

or if the other way around? if the danmaku user wasn't in their original world anymore? would the bullets tire them out if they actually used it? if they weren't in their world anymore, would using danmaku tire them out or hurt them somehow? how would their attacks work in an rpg style setting?

how do teleport tiles work? is it just people? could you troll your teammates by shooting bullets into the teleport tile? would they just hit the wall and vanish or warp through the tile and go the direction you face when being teleported?

would the danmaku damage the walls or just vanish upon hitting one?

ye i should probably play Touhou Artificial Dream in Arcadia... cause I think that kind of shows what happens if you have danmaku in an rpg. and it looks fun.

imagine my first megaten game ever being a mash up of touhou and retro smt..... lol.....

I really need to try more bullet hell games too~~ start up dimensional dream just to see if I'm still good at it after all this time...

makes my hands shake by the end due to the gameplay but it's fun~~!

need to learn to get that way with megami tensei.... die? hi charon.... keep playing and don't get upset af cause it's pointless. maybe get upset but keep going and don't give up entirely.

sometimes when we’re not seeing things clearly it’s not because what we are seeing is totally wrong and needs to be wholly flipped on its head. that’s sometimes the case but actually not that frequently. it’s so much more common that we’re just missing some important pieces of the picture and can’t contextualize the information that we have even though it feels like we can because the information IS true.
