Progression (and digressions).
The first post of the year belongs to the one, the only, the boy you've had for less than a month but if anything happens to him you'll murder me slowly and painfully: Lu Ten II.
His travels through the Earth Kingdom with Zuko are some of my favorite moments in the Spitfire AU! We get to see their dynamic truly flourish and deepen before they're reunited with the rest of their family.
But then the Gaang is forced to take care of Ten Ten as they move through the Fire Nation.
Spitfire grows a lot during the course of the story—and not just in height! He's the hope for a better future and the kindness needed to go through the present. I love him dearly, and I hope so do you.

The Fire Nation look especially gave me a lot of trouble. It's one of my faves tho.#I didn't know if Ten Ten was a firebender or not at first but the thought of him being a literal spitfire won me over.#Imagine Prince Lu Ten II walking towards Ran and Shaw with no fear or hesitation in the Firebending Masters episode.#Him reaching out to Druk's egg. Him being the first to understand the Dragons and dance with them. Him helping Zuko and Aang with their fir#So yeah—he's a firebender.#(Fire gave warmth before it learned to burn. Ten Ten is young and pure and unbidden—his fire is life before life grows cruel.)#But I digress#Tell me which Ten Ten is your fave!#He is a very expressive young boy#So my fave involves a scowl and a not-as-warm-as-he-needs parka#Special shoutout for Tea Shop Lu Ten II though. Someone give the boy a proper-sized apron!

most of the polaroids i drew for operation walburga's arbitrary no kissing ever rule in collaboration with erins_escapism on insta who made the fic into the most beautiful bind <333
If you want to see all of 15 polaroids and also erin's binds you can find them both on my insta!! (courfee_)
#There are 5 more that i made but tumblr has the 10 images maximum thingy#jegulus#jegulus fanart#marauders fanart#regulus black#james potter#james x regulus#marauders#regulus black fanart#james potter fanart#starchaser#sunseeker#regulus x james#marauders era#jegulus fanfiction#fic: operation wanker#hp#mine#my art#*#Gods those binds is just. So fucking pretty you dont understand#I keep looking at them and screaming and grinning#Anyway these polaroids are a big part of the reason why i havent made much art recently#They may just be monochrome purple but making 18.5 drawings even like this still takes a lot of time and energy#Honestly mainly energy#I only have so much drawing capacity#And especially since right before i startrd i did the jeggy kinktober thing i just reached a limit eventually and had to take a break

so when they said he threw a tantrum…💀
MY REACTION AFTER SEEING THE NEW AZULS!!!!!!!!
TO SEE THE MOU YADA ILLUSTRATED............ omg it's perfect. The look Leona's giving him LOLLLLLL. Ruggie's shocked face!!!! Azul quite literally thrashing on the ground like a spoiled child who was told no. Throwing that big of a tantrum at his grown age....... 😵💫 he's CRAZY BONKERS. I love him too much. (♡ˊ͈ ꒳ ˋ͈)
On a side note, I absolutely adore how the manga portrays these (Riddle's, Leona's, and Azul's) mental breakdowns. They're not cute or pretty; they're exceptionally ugly and raw and volatile. It captures the energy very well!!
#twisted chit chat#st4rz666#oh zuzu you are so lovely to me (๑ > ᴗ < ๑)°ᡣ𐭩 . ° .#maybe i should make a tier list of the most dangerous twst yans when they're angry or upset >:)#azul would be placed at the top of the list because of how bad his temper is :)#but then it also makes sense that the reaction is extreme#to harbor that amount of hatred (both towards yourself and also at those who shamed and belittled you)...#it's understandable that it would inevitably reach a breaking point#this is also taking into account the fact that his life's work was destroyed before his eyes with the snap of what was essentially a finger#everything turned to literal dust

I asked myself why I failed to notice. It was the first time we'd been apart that long. I found the birthday gifts you prepared for me in my room, from my 18th to my 21st. ...Shut up. I started to think about what you were doing back then. Were you celebrating my birthday all by yourself?
KISEKI: DEAR TO ME Ep. 12
#kiseki: dear to me#kisekiedit#kdtm#kiseki dear to me#chen yi x ai di#ai di x chen yi#nat chen#chen bowen#louis chiang#chiang tien#jiang dian#userspring#userrain#uservid#userspicy#userjjessi#pdribs#*cajedit#*gif#do you ever cry about the chen yi that woke up to find ai di gone.#do you ever think about the chen yi that felt ai di's tears on his face and reached up to hold him closer. to comfort him.#who saw & chose in a moment the true ai di that had always been by his side then lost him in the next. & woke up to learn it was his fault#cuz i think about the chen yi during ai di's prison time a lot. i think about him going over so many of his memories#reevaluating ai di's anger and teasing and realizing it was all heartbreak. THAT IT WAS ALL HEARTBREAK.#the guilt...the desperation & need to get through to ai di so he never makes him feel that way again. understanding that he loves ai di too#the way he gently touches ai di's hands and face here... he tied him up to keep him from running but hes being so earnest and SO careful#with ai di's pain & ai di's love. his expressions & the way he takes deep breaths before admitting things out loud like its clear#hes thinking hard abt what he wants to say and how he wants to say it. bc he has to make ai di understand how much he means this#how much he misses him. how much he wants to make this right. how he wants & needs to be by ai di's side forever bc he loves him!#he loves him!!!!!!!!! GOD. i love chen yi.

dyou think zam has claw mark scars from mapicc grabbing him too roughly
#its always about possession#sometimes zam just runs off too quickly. he doesnt like it. he reaches out without thinking and then theres blood on his hands#zam is nice. he understands. he laughs off the pain as mapicc diligently tends to the wounds he made moments before#in a way he still got what he wanted. zam stays just a bit longer. this time he does not run off with a simple goodbye#one that he would guve anyone else#but cards his fingers through mapiccs hair as he explains why he most go and when hell be back#mapicc protests the explanation. he denies his desire for attention. but zam gives it to him all the same#rambles#devotion posting

He identifies as a villain and he wants to become a god but he's not doing the best job at being bad. Aside from ticking off the gods, he's done nothing but good - though claiming it's in the name of evil.
Himst: WHY would anyone of actual intelligence rely on such petty tactics as brainwashing or enchanting? So much can go wrong! On the other hand, I have a devoted following who will do as I say! (because he quite literally saved the lives of a town and they appreciate their savior)
#my characters#he wants to be a villain SO BAD but he needs a devoted following that will stay devoted once he reaches godhood#so hes like no i must cultivate my large following before then so once i am a god i will be unstoppable#and also hes like really super stressed when he hears Other Evil People trying to get their army through force or manipulation#because dude they are GOING to turn on you what is your PROBLEM#you have to get a fully devoted cult THE RIGHT WAY#so he is always helping and saving people to grow his following and its in the middle of the road to his villainous schemes#but everyone else is like oh him? he is SO wonderful we adore him!#mr villain guy just curing plagues and taking care of bandits and killing monster packs#to protect his followers bc in the long run its for his evil plan#and hes doing literally all the good things#and he refuses to acknowledge it as good#he just doesnt understand pointless violence - thats simply beneath him

to be quite honest shadow's characterization in the fsa manga was always something that raised more questions than answers for me because it's like. he's got a mile-wide inferiority complex about being link's shadow we all know this but when did he have the time to develop that inferiority complex in the first place. how long was he lurking around after ganon created him before the events of the manga actually started. what did he witness or hear or both to make him so fucking angry
#that one post that went like 'what if you were the evil clone. what if you looked in the mirror and the brightness blinded you. what if you#saw exactly how good you could've been.' i reblogged it here a while ago but that's still the number one post i attribute to shadow#it's zelda telling him that he's a link too that spurs him to sacrifice himself. it's green telling him that he's one of them that#spurs him to finally reach towards the light. it was vio double-crossing him and verbally twisting the knife that made him so angry#that he slipped up and the four of them could finally land a hit in the first place. all this to say that shadow (like link) is extremely#emotionally-driven. for him to develop such a deep complex about being a shadow he HAD to have experienced some form of diminution#whether that diminution came from ganon himself or from potentially stalking link for a bit before shit went down#and understanding that all the things link possessed—comrades to count on (the knights). a loving father. a dear friend in zelda. a home.#a place to belong. were all things that he would never possess himself by the sheer virtue of being link's shadow instead of link himself.#i'm personally inclined to think it was a combination of both but WHATEVER it was my point is that it had to be SOMETHING.#he wouldn't have such a complex about it otherwise.#fsa#txt#four swords#<-yeah sure i'll main tag this

me, writing: I am NOT getting into the specific mechanics of lighthouses, if I go down that rabbit hole I will never get out, it is notably an arcane lighthouse so I do not need it and it is not plot relevant
me, seeing a post about Fresnel lenses: ......but what if it was plot relevant?
#megs is writing#do you understand how hard this is for me. a southern reach stan.#in fairness I was a lighthouse stan before I was a southern reach stan. they are important symbolism to my relationship lmfao

cw: suggestive themes of violence + mild gore & it's dark cause of theme at play here okay so heed that thx
that concludes the doodle dump series of yandere!spain concept
tune in for more!!! having ideas for a more spaus centric ideas for this concept ngl
also please note the characters included in the speech bubbles that's like a 'hit list' is really just a gag on the whole insanity that is the yandere trope of "killing off" the rivals or whoever was close to their person of interest, i don't mind any of those ships!! i fucken love pruaus and swissaus (even if one sided lmFAOOO) so don't anyone come at me HSDJKFHS
#spaus#hws spain#hws austria#aph spain#aph austria#hetalia#hetalia fanart#hws#aph#ya it's still nationverse#just with a very unhinged spain#which makes it all the more fucked up nations can't die so even if france is decapitated#man's head would be reattached and spain would come knocking again like hola :D#and france would be screaming trying to get the door closed as spain just smashes through in the style of that meme “HERE'S TONI”#swiss probably would get off a bit easier#he'd be beaten within an inch of his life before he could reach for his gun and one warning from spain and swiss is like jesus fuck my guy#“he's YOURS holy shit no one's taking him”#then prussia is#understandably spain knows the man would actually die so just#scar him up a lil here and there and the man's like “bro you need fucking help”#i'm enjoying this concept way too much#my art

sometimes i wonder about the people ted left behind in the us. i mean, the way he is, the little we do see of his coaching from then, i have no doubt he had a great impact on his players and staff there, too; that they loved him, too. but like, we never see ted still connected to any of them. i understand why like, on a doylist level--narratively it would just clutter things to have this whole other cast, and beard is already there showing his previous important connections, but like. i dunno. i just wonder.
#is this foreshadowing to him leaving richmond?#is it that he has more friends than he knows but he doesn't reach out? but he was far more comfortable/confident before i think#(see sharon and 'i am a good coach')#hmmm.#this also just makes me think of like. one or any of them cming to visit#also see trent crimm talking to any of them (i read an EXCELLENT fic somewhere with trent like#early on digs into ted's past and finds a testimony from his former players#and i love that so much but i'd also love to see him directly interact with one of them#especially if they're expecting him to be trying to digging up dirt and just like#him abruptly admitting that no--ted got to him too got to his soft side#he doesn't want dirt. he wants to understand#ANYWAY its fine im just rotating this)#ted lasso

he still has his tonsils. by the way if you even care
#sorry this is fucking UNINTELLIGIBLE but unfortunately i’m still on my bullshit about dr. daddyissues. yeah it’s gonna be all month#i am rotating episode 2.8 ‘the mistake’ in my head at breakneck speed. i am gnawing on it i want to swallow it#oh he’s such a lying liar who lies. charming little bastard. would rather die/lose his license than express one wholly unaffected emotion#‘he thinks not giving a crap makes him like house. like it’s something to aspire to’ quick question HOW serious do the daddy issues have to#be before you start latching on to fucking GREGORY HOUSE as a paternal figure and role model. really#even cameron is not down this bad. even WILSON is not down this bad.#the daddy issues of it all are very understandable though because even setting aside whatever went down back in childhood that shit his#father did to him in seasons 1-2 is SO messed up. jesus#imagine traveling all the way across the world to the hospital your son works in for a consult which confirms what you already knew: you’re#going to die of cancer in like 2 months. making a whole point out of stopping by to visit your son. not telling him what’s going on.#letting him spend a whole episode’s worth of time gradually coming to terms with his complicated feelings towards you (complicated on#account of a whole childhood of objectively awful parenting). the kid finally is able to try reaching back out to you. after YOU initiated#the contact in the first place. how do you react? well obviously by telling him ‘oh sorry i actually have to get in a taxi right now’ and#fucking back off to the other side of the world without giving him a chance to actually talk to you at all and resolve any of the emotions#you just dredged up. oh by the way you still haven’t fucking told him you’re about to die and in fact actively mislead him into thinking#he’s going to have the chance to try meeting with you again next time he visits your home country.#especially fucked up given that the whole reason it DID take your son so long to come around THIS time is that he feels like every time#he’s tried reaching out to you in the past you’ve just disappointed him by refusing to put in the effort to meet him there.#And Now Here We Are Again.#rowan what the FUCK is wrong with you. i want to dig you up and kill you again#house md#robert chase#caseyposting

i think ichiro’s sentimental enough to see his life flash before his eyes as he’s falling to his doom (falling off the rodeo ride lmao) and think kuukou reaching out to save him was a lot like kuukou reaching out to him in the first place lol (and lowkey saving him then)
#vee queued to fill the void#and putting aside sentimentality lol kuukou’s strength like bruh 😫😫😫😫😫😫#able to pull ichiro’s weight up from the force of being thrown off a bull ride and gravity liiiiiiiiike?????????#what’s that calc lmao?????? what’s that measurement for kuukou’s power?????#if i could understand all of those considering looks that ichiro gives kuukou lol like i love the way he silently processes people#and more times than not he starts looking at them anew when they’ve done something that speaks to his soul lol#like the way he just stares at samatoki when he offered all he did lol or those moments where samatoki reaches out to him#or seeing his brothers grow before his very eyes#or kuukou just baring his heart naturally and those moments of sacrifice#i’d love to know what goes on in his head when he’s watching someone lol#c: ichibro#c: kuukou👑

ever since I found out more than one person is legitimately passing around my url in discord servers + telling people to block me for not liking specific ships (ironically not even ships I have issues with), I've started wondering how many people have blocked me because my name is on a list
#so far three people have reached out and apologized for blocking me due to “online friends” telling them to block me for made up shit#not to say i'm not annoying and undeserving of blocks- people are absolutely welcome to block me & I totally understand#I guess I would rather people block me for stuff I'm actually doing than fake reasons#be the boogeyman you wish to see in the world#text#OH the best part was one of the people doing this i had never heard of before in my life & never interacted with LMFAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO#a real “YOU TOOK EVERYTHING FROM ME!!!” “I don't even know who you are” moment

I will never be over how at its core OFMD is about queer hope and joy in finding the strength to change and grow, specially during a stage in life/age at which the majority will say that you should be settled with who you are and what you're doing
From Stede falling in love with a man and finally realising he's queer, and embracing that with all the overwhelming joy that he can possibly embody, after years stuck in an unhappy marriage trying to force himself into a role that didn't fit him
To Ed finally falling in love with someone and using that as a catalyst for change to find out for himself what he wants to do and who he wants to be, after years of feeling like he was stuck in one place and treading water
To Izzy finally finding a safe community where he can try out new things and find new ways to express himself, after years of being so tightly wound up and repressed
To Anne & Mary stuck in a rut and unhappy but scared they're too old to change, burning down their old life so they can move on forward together and try something new
To Buttons doing the impossible and changing into a fucking bird
Doesn't it give you hope?
Doesn't it make you overwhelmed?
That no matter what age you're at and no matter how scared you are and no matter how impossible it seems, you can still grow, you can still change, you can still find your people and you can still discover new things about yourself.
That you don't need to figure out everything about yourself in your 20s. That you don't need to fall in love and start the perfect life by your 30s. That you don't need to know exactly who you are and how you're expected to spend your life by your 40s.
That you don't need to remain stuck in the box you put yourself into because that's what people dictated or because that's what was safest.
That you can always grow and change and try something new and it's never too late
#specially if you're asian there's so much pressure to get everything settled for the rest of your life before you reach your 30s#and finding queer community early on is /much/ harder#it becomes very easy to feel like you're failing in life if you don't hit every single checkpoint expected of you before you reach your 30s#so seeing a show about older queer people reaching these checkpoints at an older age heals something in me#they fucked up izzy's personal arc tho BUT I also understand this show's about gentlebeard#& for that to happen they needed to surgically remove izzy from ed (or they could have made it into a polycule- WHO SAID THAT!?)#someone's probably already said this in a much more put together way but i'm currently having emotions about it so...#ofmd spoilers#ofmd#our flag means death#our flag means death spoilers#our flag means death season 2#ofmd season 2#ofmd s2#our flag means death s2#gentlebeard#blackbonnet#ofmd edward teach#ofmd ed teach#edward teach#ofmd stede#stede bonnet#ofmd izzy#izzy hands#ofmd buttons#nathaniel buttons#ofmd mary read#mary read#ofmd anne bonny#anne bonny
