Leaf me be

[fee-phy-fo-fum]

A primrose. A four-petaled flower said to symbolise youth and young love. Giving it to someone sends a message saying "I cannot live without you".

replaying isat to appreciate some conversations id previously overlooked because theres so many little things here and there to appreciate. this was one of them.

(made minor edits to make euphrasie glitchy + clean up mira's hair)

on four petaled flowers:

since I’m having Hamlet thoughts I’m pulling out this YT comment i saw a while back (I completely forgot what video it was under that’s my bad yall)

[filurig]

some of my kin liken humans to beasts to illustrate their ruthless ambition.

i do not.

the wolf hungers, and hunts to sate that hunger.

the bear must rest, and hunts to sleep once winter comes.

the human does not merely 'hunt'.

they torch forests and poison rivers. they build giant constructions which spew gas as black as night into the very air we breathe. they hunt and hunt and hunt until nothing is left.

describing them as anything other than 'human', is to undersell the reality of their callous disregard for any semblence of mercy.

Dedicated the first spread of my new watercolor sketchbook to Ogata. The flower in the first pic is a gentian. My flower language book interprets its possible powers and meanings as “controlling lower principles; finding lost objects; overcoming evil; removing depression; uncovering secrets.” x / twitter

It's hard to believe this isn't a painting or digital art, the composition is so perfect! I would love to visit Australia one day and see these amazing plants and animals in person.

miracles don't grow from flowers how could you forgive her? teardrops drip off daffodils yet you swallow all that's bitter
