Hello I have finished IFYLITA ep 11, I have miraculously not cried though it came close a couple times, I am VERY worried about Eung Peung's health, but mostly
I am not ready for the fucking rubber trees
#i feel you linger in the air#three guesses the thing he can't remember is the car#on the upside i bet he'll be so cute being excited about driving a car again#but mostly NO I'M NOT READY#totally off topic but why the everloving fuck did they invite khamsaen to this goodbye party#also kudos to james who nobody explained shit to but who's taking jom being mostly see-through like a champ anyway#btw i went back to ep 1 to the scene where they open the chest#and they didn't show the picture with the rubber trees there at all those sneaky bastards

I'm gonna be blunt and say that I really don't think a lot of people kinda get these two characters. Sure, yeah, there'll be people like "Psshh no?? Me?? I know exactly who these guys are" and like, yeah maybe you do. Maybe you'll read this while nodding your head and whatnot. Maybe you won't.
Either way, I think there's a decent amount of people who don't...get Qibli and Winter. I mainly see it in shipping stuff. I know it's kinda idiotic to go looking for character stuff in shipping-- you know what?? No. I think it's perfectly sound logic to try and look for meaningful character writing in ship stuff, especially with fanfics. I've got that aroace mindset where I can only comprehend a ship if it has a clear and exact thematical and character-driven purpose.
Anywho, I think there's something to be craved with how Qinter is talked about in the fandom. I think there's something in general to be desired when discussing Qibli and Winter in general (or, hell, most of the characters) or other ships they're in, but I want to discuss Qinter mainly as a means to view them through the lens of a relationship. Some sort of duo and pair. Two young dragonets trying to survive.
Winter and Qibli come from incredibly similar backgrounds. That sounds ridiculous at a first glance, but when you think about it, they do. They both were raised with terrible parents who held them to an unrealistic standard that neither really wanted to be.
Winter was forced to become a child soldier and be the best of the best, despite his best rightfully not being absolutely perfect and having a ton of heart and soul in him. Ironically enough, his sheer loyalty to his friends that he displays later would be commended in the IceWing army, but is only looked down upon because he's showing anything other than pure apathy at existence and disgust when confronted with the other tribes. Winter is a kind soul who was shaped and twisted into becoming somebody far meaner to fit the idea of what his parents wanted him to be. It's a mask he wears to fit in. To be at least be tolerated by the dragons he only wants the approval from.
Qibli was raised in the slums of Scorpion Den. The back alleys and dark, seedy streets that are avoided. He had to fit the build of a thief. A petty pickpocket that lurks around like his family, doing nothing more than swiping whatever goods they could get their hands on. Qibli was kind and sweet, which obviously was a terrible sin in the eyes of his family. Like Winter, this planted a seed of wanting to be loved, although to a significantly larger extent than Winter felt. Qibli became obsessed with the idea of being loved as he hated being seen as nothing. He wanted nothing more than to be praised and admired because of just how neglected he was. So, he pretends to be somebody likable. Somebody who others care about. A mask to conceal the dragon he feels can never be loved.
Because of their backgrounds, they feel at odds when they're introduced to one another. Qibli is the laid-back jokester type while Winter is snarly and angry. Thanks to Moon's powers though, we get a look into them even before their book.
We see that Qibli is paranoid and his brain is constantly trying to predict others. He's always in a state of stress and fear, putting on a performance to try and be liked and see which dragons are the biggest threats to him. He's never gotten used to living outside of the crime-filled Scorpion Den, and the memories of childhood where he had to lay awake thinking that some dragon who his mother stole from will murder them all in their sleep remain. He's scared and afraid.
Winter managed to convince himself that he is this mean and nasty dragon, but really he's not. There's moments of hesitancy in MR from him. He's also just. generally not really that much in the wrong in the book. Sorry my Winter Apologist side is coming out but y'all hate too much on a character who was just kinda mean for some random dragon he only knew for a couple days at most by then doing stuff that was very suspicious. Yeah obviously Moon is the protagonist and we like her and know the full context, but Winter?? He doesn't know anything!
I digress however. They're in. not the best of states. Sure, yeah, Qibli had ran from Vulture and Cobra and was now Thorn's adoptive son of sorts, but he was obsessed with Thorn to the point of almost blind worship. He hailed her as some grand dragon because he had never been loved before. Being loved by somebody felt incomprehensible. He wants to repay it since he feels like he doesn't deserve it.
Winter on the other hand has just gotten away from a terrible situation, where his family more or less just hates him. They hate him so much it's not even funny. Winter had gotten Hailstorm, somebody who Winter loved and admired, was stolen away by the SkyWings and presumed dead for years because of him. He blames himself. He constantly thinks that he should've been the one taken away instead. He doesn't see himself worthy to live, especially not compared to Hailstorm. Hailstorm is charming, smart, strong, and better in every capacity to Winter. How could he ever live up to that?
Their shared flaw is that they feel inadequate. They feel as though there's something inherently flawed with themselves, something that they need to hide away. It was shaped because of their similar backstories, where they were neglected and abused and put down because of them never being able to meet the unreasonable expectations placed on them. Because of this trauma, their personalities in the present are shaped to try and fit in.
It's only by being with the Jade Winglet do they begin to unlearn those habits. I would imagine that, in moments where they chat with each other for the first real time (not fighting or anything), they...notice how alike they are. Like holding up a mirror to themselves. Despite how differing their personalities are, they feel one in the same. The other side of the coin.
It's why I think Qinter really works as something more than a cheap means for comedic relief. They bounce off each other really well and in an interesting way, which makes for their interactions feeling a lot more meaningful when they put away the act and show and are genuine. I honestly think that they would want to help each other out. They see themselves in the other and don't want them to feel like they have to do this, but they can't even save themselves.
It's only with time however. Healing is a process. It's sure as hell hard to do it all alone. It's why I love a lot the themes of friendship and togetherness in arc 2 especially. All of the POVs learn how to be more confident and sure of themselves through their friends. I just wish that Qinter was talked about in a more intellectually stimulating way than "yellow boy laughs at blue boy for being angsty teen"
#I wrote this mostly for the Wiki to see since I'm about ready to start tearing flesh from people's necks with my teeth#over the sheer amount of Qibli hate that ultimately amounts to “he's annoying and an overthinker :/”#You guys don't unNnnNNDERRRRSTANNNDDDD#sp-rambles#wof#wings of fire#qibli wof#winter wof#qinter

Silly guys return now with me accidentally making a comic of how it took isat one month to get some characters to the special room
I'm not risking reloading of the page but there's a continuing thing of the couch characters progress
#fanart#sketch#my art#isat siffrin#isat loop#Siffrin#Loop#shigaraki tomura#tenko shimura#scaramouche#wanderer#flowey#bill cipher#otto apocalypse#two hats spoilers#isat spoilers#comic#comic sketch#isat#bnha#undertale#gravity falls#honkai impact 3rd#genshin impact#I'm even adding fandoms this time wow#Anyway that's basically how my head tried to figure out what to do#I *wanted* to add those two to the couch group and I think they're almost ready but at the beginning it was a mess#This entire comic is mostly just me imagining whatever bc why not#I wanted those two to interact with Flowey so bad but I imagine seeing a talking flower might be shocking even if Loop is... Loop#And anyway no matter the loop they're both still morally good especially comparing to the group on the couch

grif's surgery but just a little more... obvious?
I actually rly rly ADORE frankengrif but I don't have an in-show reason why he'd have extensive long-term allogeneic skingrafts on his face 😔
#rvb#red vs blue#dexter grif#grif#*24#mine#art#cw wounds#Look I love biology stuff like this so I like researching what would be at least semi-plausible even if it's just for a dumb halo show that#makes 0 sense where CPR cures a headshot but i cant help it!!! and like the 'lazy' reason for it would be sarge is just crazy like that but#its not a good reason imo. and like the things he lists needing replacement are mostly internal and body parts which makes sense#considering how grif got injured by sheila like I could 100% see that rupturing organs and crushing his hand and there being burns etc#but like nothing points to grif needing any surgery above the neck and i dont think anyone mentions his face being different? i could#make up injuries for him but nothing in the show actually supports that he'd need grafts for anything but his body..#I'm SOO ready to be convinced otherwise btw like I said I want an obvious frankengrif to be true so bad !!#AGH would it be too insane of me to make like a surgery/injury overview thing for grif just so i can convince myself abt this idea...#i can bend to some fun stuff tho im not a total joykill u know! thats why i give his body the mismatched donor skin look despite allogeneic#grafts not being permanent w/ current tech. like it really doesn't matter if it's realistic or whatever but also Yes It Does.#and like during/after chorus would grey offer to 'fix' it? i imagine the feds could mesh a skin so they could use grif's own skin..#or like during rats nest when they got reassigned?

characters who see themselves as more of a Force or an abstract concept acting in the world than as a person. characters who prioritize their role as a cog in some greater mechanism over their own personhood. characters who get their hands dirty, who run themselves ragged, who take on an unbearable weight, who hurt or neglect or give up or straight-up betray the people and things they once held close, because they believe in doing so they are fulfilling their Purpose, the thing they exist in this world to do (and no one else will do it, *can* do it, so it has to be them). characters who've determined that they are constructs bound to preprogrammed code, to a script already written for them by someone/something else, and have been operating under that mindset for so long that they don't know how to live on their own terms. characters who uphold the fate that is smothering them. can anyone hear me
#it's the combo of objectification of the self + self-sabotaging devotion to an Other#or maybe it's nothing and i'm just yapping when i should be getting ready for bed. you decide!#narrative nonsense#this is inspired by my newest blorbo (the angel hare one) but also#chara dreemurr#(specifically their mindset in the Bad Time route)#some parts of this are also... janus (in my headcanons). and guildenstern. (different parts to be clear)#bonus points if they did it all or mostly to themselves#shout-out to one of the main characters from my current wip novel who would say she's long moved past this phase#(she has not. not really.)

I'm counting down the days to the Dragon Age: Veilguard. I was watching a scene on YouTube. "Rook" is speaking to Solas and while I don't have a lot ot energy to ramble rn, I found this line kinda interesting.
I kinda never really thought about how alike Solas and Varric are in some ways. I think it's an interesting parallel and explains why they became friends. They're both tricksters in a sense. But yeah I'm feeling sappy about it again. That said I find it kinda odd the Inquisitor wont get much involvement considering how close they could be to Solas. From a story perspective, it lacks somewhat, but I'll take what I can get.
#dragon age veilguard#solas dragon age#varric tethras#I need this game out now#I have a lot of thoughts about this game but mostly hearing good things so#I'm ready

>be me
>realize "holy shit we're less than three weeks from september"
>channel that terror about the passage of time into energy
>specifically, the energy to create @otgw-described for accessible OTGW posts
>memes aside, it's running on a queue that I intend to, at the very least, maintain seasonally. so follow if you're interested, and please tag the blog in described OTGW posts!
#otgw#over the garden wall#to be honest i foresee this mostly as a low-stress endeavor for me; for which i can mostly just fill the queue every fall#my brain and the organization required for sideblogs don't really get along#but i made this blog precisely because i felt it was the one fandom where i *could* fill this niche#get ready for probably a few wrong blog incidents but i'm sure i'll get better as i go along

Hate to feel like my friendship is a precious and limited commodity that I have to carefully dole out to the most worthy recipients but. It is and I do.
#calculating whom to text this week bc i have to save one hang slot for my friend who's about to move ...#like oh i can do one of those girls i've been meaning to hang with but not both. and then there's my other friend who's about to move#and my one friend just got back from africa#and the one who had a baby might be socializing-ready again soon#(again this is why i don't follow more people and also why i'm cutting down on my following.#even my nascar tires are getting worn out too fast. many more people are deserving of love and attention#than I have love and attention to give#and that is in the hands of the Lord#this is maybe also why i've been more and more enjoying friendships that happen in brief trips and encounters!#the relief of being with someone for a whole weekend or week and that's all there is to do#and then we can leave each other mostly in peace until the next time#instead of having to constantly work at fitting one another in around the corners of normal life)#i know this is a problem many of you would desperately wish to have#and i'm praying for some of my wealth of cool christian women in my area to get spread to you
