Why are they bombing us?

They told us this was a safe area, and we came here, why are they bombing us?

قالوا لنا هنا منطقة آمنة وجينا عليها، ليش بيقصفونا؟

rewatching World Trigger. I forgot how gay it was. Osamu straight up says "hey Yuma. I know that we've only known you for like five days, but I can't help but notice that you aren't doing anything with your life right now. Mind if I borrow it for a bit?"

And then Yuma responds with "while its true that we've only know each other for like five days, your kind yet stubborn nature has compelled me. Sure. Why not? From this moment on my life is yours to do whatever you want with. One condition, though. You have to be my boss" and then throughout the story he occasionally makes these little remarks like "I'd do anything my captain (osamu) asked me to."

Like bro what? I really don't think that Osamu fully realizes the weight of the loyalty he somehow managed to earn from Yuma. I don't think he could realize it. From his perspective he cringefailed his way into b rank while Yuma did all the work. "And now Yuma would kill or die for me" is just not a conclusion that would ever occur to Osamu based on the avaliable evidence.

And like, what's going on here from Yuma's perspective? I get that he was a man on the brink when the story started, pursuing a sincerely suicidal plan, and then said plan failed and he was left with absolutely nothing, but I still feel like there has to be more going on here. He decided that he would follow Osamu through hell and back the very same minute that Osamu asked anything of him at all.

It's like, combat is all Yuma has ever known. He doesn't see any future for himself at all, but he especially can't imagine a peaceful one. But he's not a bad kid. He doesn't go out of his way to hurt people. Osamu has proven to be a pretty decent person, willing to sacrifice himself to save the lives of relative strangers. Maybe, the way Yuma sees it, yeah he's a weapon, but if he follows Osamu at least he'll be a weapon pointed in the right direction. He'll fight because it's all he knows how to do, but osamu would only ever ask him to fight for worthy causes. Y'know?

Anyway. The point is that Yuma accepted helping Osamu as his new purpose in life after knowing him for less than a week, and that's A Lot, no matter how you look at it.

It was fun to try imitating a fairytale or storybook type of illustration, and also to draw KOMUGIIIII who I don't think I have ever drawn before and that's just not right??

Season 3 Sex Education is segue-ing into Current Events and ripped-from-the-headlines topical plots about Moral Panic re: LGBT Social Contagion and I keep having to pause because I hate being interpellated as a marginalized subject by a television narrative, I am watching this for ESCAPISM >:(

my mother teased me for taking a covid test when I was ill but when that sample line came back the darkest red she ran as if the devil was on her heels

something tells me that she didn't test or take many precautions during that last vacation of hers...

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.

V funny to me that fandom usually complains about unexpected design choices in the absence of lore, but they also complain with the presence of lore explaining why it is what it is (they just didn’t read)

This just in: somehow the hardest part of writing is not the grand descriptions or the beautifully woven tapestry of dialogue and character-driven introspection, but the pain of trying to align time zones for your characters in different states

being a demiromantic ace is so annoying how on earth am i supposed to write this fic from the pov of a character who’s very definitely neither of these things

[kenisle]

so annoying when superhero movies have the main character give up on vigilante-ing for the greater good or whatever but then suffer at some dreadfully boring office job before they inevitably return to their true calling But Better Now.

become a firefighter — that’s literally superheroing but unionized and without the expectation of punching people. work disaster relief. join doctors without borders.

like dude there is more than one way to apply your skills i promise.
