I think a lot about how common it is for Raph to be the one to have direct focus put on him when Leo gets into all his near death experiences.

Like, when Leo is thrown off a building, it’s Raph who’s right there jumping after him, not even thinking about the consequences to himself when he does. When Leo almost gets skewered by the Krang, Raph’s right there to take the blow and send Leo to safety without a second thought. When Leo’s being strangled to near death, it’s a Krangified Raph doing the job, doing exactly what Raph would never, ever want to do. When Leo is telling Casey Jr to close the portal, it’s Raph who tries desperately to convince Leo otherwise.

Likewise, Leo is consistently very single minded when Raph gets forcibly separated from them. Both when in the sewers and by the Krang, Leo is dead set on finding Raph first and foremost.

I also think it’s interesting that during each of Leo’s near death experiences, the lightheartedness of his words during them goes directly hand in hand with both how close Raph is to him physically and how much danger Raph is also in in that moment. From a literal “I told you so” as Leo’s falling away from Raph to a soft joke about how “hero moves” are Raph’s style - both of these are on the more morbidly carefree side and both of these notably take Leo farther away from Raph and, in turn, have Raph not in immediate danger.

On the other side of things is the apology from Leo, heedless of the danger he himself is in as he seriously and genuinely speaks to a Krangified Raph face to face. Then there’s Leo’s freezing and desperation as Raph takes a hit meant for him and sends just Leo to safety, leaving Raph himself behind. Both of these involve much closer proximity and Raph being directly harmed - these together make Leo much more vulnerable in his words and actions, something not even the threat of death can make him.

These two care about each other so much, and they’re way too much alike for their own good.

The last day of my week of rest and I cannot believe a whole week is gone. Looking back I probably needed a bit more than a week to get my energies back, but I'll make sure to go easy on myself next week. Today was made of reading and resting and it was the best way to end the week for me. Tomorrow my new class awaits me and I am feeling a mixture of dread and excitement. I am not looking forward to the commute but maybe the new topics and a new weekly routine will give me motivation.

Today's self care:

Read first thing in the morning

Had a videocall with my best friend which was really nice and made me feel good we should try to schedule these calls more often

Cuddled up in my reading chair with a new book and lots of tea

📖: Finn Family Moomintroll by Tove Jansson (I am still slowly reading this book, I am savouring it when I need to immerse myself in something calming and cozy), The Odyssey by Homer (I finally decided to pick this up, I have studied it in multiple occasions but I never read it cover to cover and the edition I got a few months back is incredible, I am in fact also eyeing their edition of the Iliad which might be in my priority wishlist now)

always sort of a shock to the system when i remember ppl know sonic 06’s plot more for the fandub than for itself. which is understandable given the og is a mess, but idk its kinda sad bc theres some good stuff there (shadow’s entire story arc)

[slothprince]

feeling as though you've lost purpose in your life? would you like your life micromanaged by an Unholy being with way too much free time and money on their hands, while ALSO giving your mind and body to science and said Ungodly being??

then look no further than #SLOTHPRINCE! a mutual-only and indie rp sideblog for a headcanon-heavy Belphegor of Judaic mythology based on the Hellaverse created by V.ivziepop, as summoned by Ruby and follows back from @gethellbcnt!

once again, i think it is so very fucking strange to include a route/path in an INTERACTIVE book and the maximum exploration of it is '????? welp i don't know! ???' in a scooby doo voice.

there is no reason why a resistant detective not be allowed options as to WHY they're resistant to start a relationship with N or F (and I say this as a huge F-fan who agrees when the narrative is like 'why am I doing this?' yes why are you resisting the hot adorable one??). If this journey is given, then I - as the player - should be allowed to explore it as fully as the game/writer's skills allow.

And I know this isn't as far the game/writer's skills allow, because we are granted variations on how to treat a past with Bobby and a future with Douglas, we can decide on our relationship with the Captain and the Mayor - side characters to varying degrees - but we CAN'T choose why the detective might be hesitant to start something as important as a ROMANTIC RELATIONSHIP with MAIN CHARACTERS???

make it make sense to me.

please. i beg.

im so mad that this is a side blog account and not a main account. i started this blog when i was still relatively new to tumblr and i think i was… like. fourteen years old or something. i never thought i would continue for this long, and i never knew so many people would like the content i put out here (i have over 9k followers which is literally mind-blowing, like wow….).

because this isnt a main account, i cant respond to replies left on my posts, i cant really reply to anyone unless i reblog !! i cant even follow people with this blog, it just comes up as my main blog (which is not pjo-related… rip my failed attempts at organising my fandoms to different blogs). so my avenues of interaction with a lot of you are seriously impeded.

so i just want to say i am so thankful for all of you, i read every single person’s tags who reblog my stuff, i read all of your replies and every time im crying screaming rolling around on the ground in agony over the fact i CANT REPLY!!

i know my posts are super inconsistent these days, im glad so many are still here! i think i may change some of my content eventually (never gonna get rid of the incorrect quote stuff, i’ll just be adding some other things like pjo headcanons or analyses or something), just to spice some stuff up on here.

It's already 10 PM. I think I'll stop chores after doing them for about five or six hours. My sink (mostly) and oven look nice and the area around both is clean. Picked up some floor trash and put it in trash bags, so they're still on the floor, but now more things are ready to be taken out. Did not do that final load of laundry. Gonna make mac and cheese (the first cooking outside of the microwave and making a singular salad that I've done in a LONG time, I'm talking MONTHS) and eat it out of the pot and then rinse that pot and put it right back in my bathtub that apparently doesn't have a good seal because it's slowly been draining itself.

Why not put it in the sink now that the sink is (mostly) clean? Because it's just going to make the problem happen again. :)
