I don't know if I've ever made a post on this topic before, but I'm going to do it anyways: Romance is a social construct.
What does this mean? Well, think about gender, which is basically a set of expectations of how to present, dress, and act. These expectations (such as shaving) are not inherent to biology, and differ across cultures and time. Romance is the same way. People in a romantic relationship are expected to act a certain way and do certain things, like holding hands or having sex. They are expected to feel a certain way about one another. And, just like gender, these expectations differ across cultures and time. In Europe, kissing friends on the cheek is a common greeting, but in the US that's seen as romantic. And in the past, the concept of "dating" as we know it didn't really exist.
Just like gender, this doesn't mean romance isn't "real." It just exists in the context of the society around it.

One thing that I've noticed that I desperately want to put into the pruk fic is Alfred and Matt knowing how to use public transport from the back of their hand cause they don't have a car a d have to go places themselves because Arthur's always busy. Like theyve got zip cards and everything
Compared to Ludwig who Gilbert's both overprotective over and well off enough to not really need to use it.
I've noticed that if you grew up relatively wealthy you've got no knowledge of how to use the public transport in your area BC you never needed it
#Been thinking about this for a long time#Al and mat and Lutz with Heinrich going to central London. Heinrich doesn't know what's going on BC he's only here to visit#He does know Düsseldorf though.#lutz has no idea what's going on because again he's never had to#Alfred and Matt know this shit they have zip cards and everything

ghost of you
super quick Sua screencap redraw to celebrate the new video release - no I was not expecting it to be Like That and yes I was devastated
(no reposts; reblogs appreciated)
#my art#artists on tumblr#digital art#fanart#alien stage#mizisua#alnst#alnst sua#why is the acronym so hard to type correctly#drawing doomed yuri on valentines day </3#was not planning to make alnst fanart but i was contemplating violence and that reminded me of the show#long story short 3/4 of a class i'm in failed an exam#and the prof refuses to acknowledge that maybe he needs to revise his teaching methods#instead of blaming all of us for being stupid#anyway this isnt about him#i saw someone call sua the dead wife and wow so true#flashback queen#hyuna was actually my fave...time to pick a new one i guess!#now that im putting the art and the ref side by side i can see a billion mistakes#i will say the warmer tones + sua smiling more is on purpose tho#call it mizi vision with those rose tinted glasses#u ever think about how the ppl you love can haunt you#there have been so many times i thought a stranger was someone i knew bc i recognized their hair or clothes or the way they laugh#(yes lord huron is stuck in my head rn)

still ruminating over Lost In the Book With Spooky Skeletons Part 1, so here's a selection of some of my favorite little bits! (...some more loosely paraphrased than others) (I just feel like Idia has no room to criticize in general, okay)
anyway, I'm sure we're just going to have a fun time celebrating Halloween and nothing bad is going to happen whatsoever! :)
#art#twisted wonderland#twisted wonderland spoilers#lost in the book with nightmare before christmas#hajimari no halloween#calling dibs on skeleton kisses as the name of my band#man scully is just a delightful little weirdo and i'm enjoying him immensely#(i'm going with scully until we get something official just because it makes me think of x-files)#(スカリー is also how the agent's name is transliterated and i don't know if it was intentional but i love it as a bonus reference)#(i want to believe™)#gosh though#'no one at school likes me because i won't shut up about halloween and jack skellington' i'm feeling VERY attacked right now twst#look scully your people are out there#just get on the forums and -- oh wait you're probably from like the 1800s or something#(my theory is that he's from the past and there's just some Book Magic going on to bring us together)#(LOOK they made a point of saying that the book fair has been held annually for a super long time)#a hot topic goth born before hot topic was invented...so sad 😔#i dunno i could be wrong but that feels like a good working theory for now#if it wasn't for mal sensing twsty ~magic~ on him i would think he's like. a christmas elf who's going to kidnap jack in a reverse-nmbc#(not ruling that out though because it would be amazing)#god all the sprites in this event look AMAZING. loving the desaturated colors and the extra drawn-on lines 😍#i'm genuinely kinda sad that we aren't gonna get to see every character like this#who knows...maybe halloweentown will be imperiled again next year...#come back and destroy my keys again please#(that said i'm doing weirdly well so far?)#(i promised i'd save for sebek and just do cursory pulls to get the SRs and not hope for the SSRs)#(...but then leona jumpscared me four coffins in anyway. halloween magic is REAL)

I know Vanessa regret saying this in the FNAF movie,,
#myart#chloesimagination#comic#fnaf#five nights at freddy's#vanessa afton#fnaf vanessa#vanessa shelly#mike schmidt#fnaf movie#fnaf fanart#I think about this scene in the movie like all the time#especially when I think about movie Vanessa#there muse of been so much on her mind at the time#like I know she said that to begin with because she wanted to protect Abby#she knows that Freddy’s is just overall dangerous for her#especially with her father who coukd appear anytime he likes..#she also let her own guard down and that must upset her#so all she could do in her mind to keep at least Abby away is threaten Mike#but I feel she regretted it#Mike is her first friend in a long time and she feels guilty over him#Poor Vanessa she had so much on her mind#just want that girl to be happy 😔🩵

i think alphonse would still experience depersonalization and dysmorphia even after getting his body back
#alphonse elric#obviously hes glad about having it back#but there's this unease at the back of his mind#because hes been put into a new body that is drastically different from the one he was in for years for a second time#and that body isnt the one he lost. it had changed so much since he was 10 and i dont even think he could recognize himself for a while#i also think thats why he got the exact same haircut he had as a kid. to feel more like that younger and more familiar version of himself.#anyway i think he would still feel like he lost another part of himself by gaining everything back#even if he hated every second of being in that armor and even if all he ever wanted was to be normal again#he still spent 5 years in that body. long enough to begrudgingly become used to it#and for his body to change instantly into an unrecognizable version of himself#i dont think he had an easy time adjusting to being so different physically#even beyond the fact that he had to spend months/years physically recovering#oughhh its such a weird and complex feeling to miss something that made him miserable#just because that familiarity is more comforting than all of the pain and overstimulation of gaining his senses back#and being a completely different person physically#i also think hed have trouble sleeping for a while and start Thinking About Things He Shouldn't at night again#this is one of those things#fma#fullmetal alchemist#fma fanart#fmab fanart#fullmetal alchemist brotherhood#fma art#fmab#fma brotherhood

havent posted anything isat related in a while. have this
#its been like 4 months since ive finished this game and its been in my mind 24/7 constantly#hopefully i get more motivation to draw during the holiday break#the worst thing is that even though i think about those characters all day long i still dont have any solid ideas about what to draw/write#my brain is like an image of siffrin that just spins around. im playing ping pong inside my head with them#currently my isat drawings are mostly just my Thinking Patterns that i project onto siffrin#and random doodles#in stars and time#isat#isat siffrin#isat loop#drawinsometimez

Something Old, Something New.
[First] Prev <–-> Next
#poorly drawn mdzs#mdzs#wei wuxian#a-yuan#Hey now! It's been a long while since we've seen that hair style!#Something old - in the way you see a little glimpse of a boy that died a long time ago#Something new in a man who has a new direction and purpose. Somehow it is still you. But you can't ever be that *you* again.#I think grief comes from a mourning of futures we lost. We associate it with love-#-but what else do we mourn if not the future we had with them? So too do we feel grief over the future our past self once hoped for.#I love the radish extra because it is so sweet and so full of small sorrows.#WWX is as playful as always with A-Yuan but there is a constant presence of how he no longer sees a future for himself.#Be it in the way he talks about the impossibility of him having children.#Or in the way he creates this silly and artificial game of helping A-yuan grow-up faster.#It's always about the moment to moment with him. Tomorrow isn't guaranteed.#His major hubris moment has yet to come but I would strongly argue that the seeds of doubt were already gestating.#It might be a bit of a 'ship tease' moment when WWX comments that his idea kid would be more like LWJ than himself -#But I consider it to be a true (if unconscious) sentiment that he sees himself as having gone down the wrong path.#It's not a 'I want LWJ to have my kids' moment. It's an 'if I were to have kid - I'd want them to never know what I went through.'#WWX is the parent that breaks the cycle. He walked for 10km through the corpse piles everyday and by god he's driving you to school.#LWJ is also a cycle breaker parent but in the opposite direction. He packs chocolate chip cookies and extra snacks in your bag.

All of my restraint right now#to not be So Mean to all of you#You Don't Even Know#I Could Do Something. I Might Still.#art#murder drones#murder drones uzi#uzi doorman#murder drones n#serial designation n#murder drones v#serial designation v#murder drones cyn#i need liam to explain whether cyn and the solver are the same person already so i can tag them appropriately its driving me nuts#oh yeah cyn got a plush core to chew on by the way#the idea of giving her a chew toy was rolling around in my head and i think its a very funny visual so here we are
