“The Past is Present,” Phases of the Moon Knight (Vol. 1/2024), #3.
Writer: Justina Ireland; Penciler and Inker: Daniel Bayliss; Colorist: Dee Cunniffe; Letterer: Cory Petit
#Marvel#Marvel comics#Phases of the Moon Knight#Moon Knight comics#latest release#Ellie Johnson#Oh okay I see we’re starting off strong based on that sign in the window hahaha#fair warning the following tags touch on political topics so please take everything with a grain of salt (what do I know hahaha)#I just *sigh* I’m not sure if this was intended to be a reference to a current campaign slogan in US politics#or if it was a bit more general but in any case perhaps I shouldn’t be surprised anymore by lionization of the past#but it never passes me by whenever anyone tries to argue that the past was superior (near perfect) and we should dwell on it#Either they’re truly ignorant of the past’s issues or they actually admire them#I’m equally suspicious however anyone who promises an entirely new start#as if any system could ever truly break away from its past and as if we didn’t perpetually have someone peddling a new new deal or frontier#I also find it interesting that this is in a window trying to attract patrons which in a way means its capitalizing off the past/nostalgia#the docents/proprietors in this story are good folk so I’m sure it’s not so underhanded as that but still…#…or maybe this is just an establishing shot to indicate to the reader that this is a post-apocalyptic/hero society#and I’m just being overly sensitive about 6 words in a background shot hahaha#don’t mind op rambling in the tags as per always

Hello fellow Scum Villain fans! If anyone is bored, loves Moshang and Qijiu (especially Shang Qinghua and Shen Jiu), and would be interested in hearing the details of the very long fic I’m writing, I would love to have a brain or two I could bounce ideas against to make sure they sound valid, interesting, and in character. I have a full outline and around 150,000 words written so far, but there are parts that I could use some insight/thoughts on and I figured other passionate fans might be the right people to ask!
#moshang#qijiu#svsss#fanfic discussion#I’m trying to anti-airplane this#my goal isn’t to comment crowdsource like he did but just have some sanity checks#also I should probably provide a trigger warning that Shen Jiu’s past is very much dwelled upon and his trauma explored#and also the disfunction of Moshang in the beginning is explored#this is a pro-Moshang fic though. they just need time to get there#also I have adorable lesbian OCs who I love very much but I promise don’t steal the spotlight#my gay heart just wanted more girls and Shen Jiu needed female friends!#I think all said and done the fic will be longer than the source material#which makes sense since it takes place from 15 year old Shang Qinghua until mid abyss timeline

#I do thinks it’s funny tho how I am the person he’s been leaning on the most for support#I am the one who’s been putting aside all my trauma#and using up all my energy#to take care of him and comfort him even tho I’ve had my own shit going on#and maybe this makes me a bad friend idk#I’m just at my capacity to cry for a man who won’t cry for himself#and to comfort a man who won’t stop dwelling on his past#but then lectures me for dwelling on mine#I’m so sick of his “Lone cowboy up just need extra grit” bullshit#I don’t wanna be the healer anymore maybe for once#maybe I wanna be comforted and cared for instead of providing that#idk#dumb ellie is dumb

Oh and since I’m already talking about 2021 fans it’s such revisionist history that the entirety of dsmptwt pretends that it was only smiletwt that would shit on cc!techno like don’t get me wrong smiletwt’s switch up pisses me off too but it was definitely every corner of dsmptwt doing it i remember 😭 most of the subtwts (aside from emeraldtwt) switched up on him like y’all trying to turn that whole hate campaign into an “evil dream stan” thing is the craziest deflection of guilt I’ve ever seen in my life
#I don’t think eveyone particpated in it but I definitely think some people felt guilt for not saying anything when it happened#and since they are not able to make amends anymore they feel guilty and want someone else to blame#and who’s a better scapegoat than Dream stans#hopefully this is my last post dwelling on the past for the day#but I’m like a drolo for techno I wont get over this shit ever#i hope you guys understand#also I’m on my period so this is period induced haterisms which is why it’s leaving my drafts#negativity#.___.

moving on is so overrated… what if i don’t want to get over it? what if i want to dwell on it? what if i have trouble letting go of the past and need help? mind your business
#i don’t know how to move on can you tell#this is not smart do not be like me#this is not a healthy coping mechanism#not doing well lol#don’t dwell on the past it’s not worth it#random#small rant?#rambling#girlblogging

WAIT I THINK I RECOGNISED YOUR ART . AREN'T YOU THE ARTIST WHO DREW THOSE WATERCOLOR LALOWARD ARTWORKS AND DREW THEM RIDING A HORSE ALONG WITH OTHER BEAUTIFUL SCENES.
Anon this is the scariest moment of my life
#i’m half joking#don’t take this the negative way but if y’all think you recognize my old art no you don’t#I’m more at peace when I don’t dwell on the past#but thank you anyways#asks

hey have i ever told you guys that i have a strange (and some say statistically unusual) gift for finding four-leaf clovers?
#these were from today#found in the space of 10 min#while my mother tried to convince me to join a local chorus#she is convinced that the clovers are good signs#however i hate looking for signs like that because life doesn’t make narrative sense#and in the past i’ve put too much stock into ‘signs’ i’ve seen#which leads to building high expectations about whatever the sign signifies#and my expectations never meet reality#usually reality is much worse in fact#so what does that say about the signs#???#i don’t trust them!#but i’m going to try the chorus anyway#because it’s equally as illogical to always assume the worst i suppose#what’s the worst that could happen?? my mother asked#i said i could embarrass myself or#offend someone by accident#and then i would spend the next 10 years dwelling on it#which to be very clear WOULD be horrible and i am very afraid that that will happen#like that is the worst that could happen but that doesn’t diminish how awful it is#ugh. anyway! chorus meets tomorrow so errrr#wish me luck….#🍀

at this point im just speeding through chapter one of lover boy like im trying to get through the perfume department
#ON A LINE LEVEL NOT BAD!!! NOT BAD ON A PLOT BEAT LEVEL EITHER!!!!#I definitely know I want to completely rework the opening but want to wait until I’ve written more#but also it’s just like im not used to this balance yet#of the grief but also the earnest silliness etc etc….it’s my own experience of grief but it takes getting used to#definitely hard to strike the balance from a writing pov#i have not been this consistent in a novel draft in a while but the last time I was the story was like. thematically + emotionally simpler#I think it definitely is a case of writing the first chapter closer to last but I’m gonna get thru the plot beats you know#also we’re deep in the tags so I’ll get mildly over sharing I need to be DONEEE with the bobby death flashback#I won’t detail what it looks like but it’s a scene that def takes from my experience of seeing someone dead and is very cathartic#VERY proud of what I’ve already written#but absolutely not a scene I can dwell on I need to be past it#chapter 2 in contrast has some super sweet Bobby flashbacks and I want to be there. I need healing#I don’t want to think about his dead body anymore :(#like it’s not triggering. but I need to be in the right frame of mind to write it#and the longer it takes me to get there the less I am in the right frame of mind bc I’m like anticipating it

sigh time to tag vent
#hey I’m just venting#so my assault happened two years ago around this day#and I know I just wrote that fic and published it to make me feel better#but fuck#looking back to the picture I posted to my private snap before going out#versus the next morning#I wish I could go back and tell myself not to go out with that guy that night#that he was a scumbag and he will effectively ruin me#like I know there’s no use dwelling on the past#but at the same time#it’s just really really getting to me this morning#need a hug but actually don’t want anyone to touch me at all

for anyone keeping track i’ve been with my dad for over 24 hours and he still hasn’t mentioned anything about the save the date i got just before thanksgiving for his wedding
#but i did get the gem of ‘what do you remember from that time’ (the weeks after my first stepmom died)#followed very closely by ‘i don’t want to dwell on the past’#longest 66 hours i’ve spent at home in years#tomorrow is shaping up to piss me off too 🙃

jason and bruce + “forgiven” by relient k
#and you can’t see past the blood on my hands#to see that you’ve been aptly damned to fail and fail again#‘cause we’re all guilty of the same things#we think the thoughts whether or not we see them through#and i know that i have been forgiven#and i just hope you can forgive me too#so don’t you dare blame me for! prying open the door!#that’s unleashed the bitterness! that’s here in the midst of this!#just. the whole thing. especially after jason starts reconciling with the rest of the fsm.#betcha didn’t expect this ccm throwback but i’ve been dwelling on this for weeks#jason todd#batfam

I hate trying to describe like. A characters voice and accent and shit cus I!! Don’t know the words for things!!! 😭 but anyways idk if these are entirely how he sounds but you kinda get the vibes of how Rory sounds with these songs here-
youtube
youtube
youtube
You get the vibes right?? You get what I’m goin for???? 🥺??
#about my ocs#oc voiceclaim#I’d like to think this fits his character a lot too. he talks of love and death quite a bit. but he feels an equal amount of appreciation#for both. he knows they’re equally important#his way about life is too appreciate moments as you live them. don’t dwell too long on the past and don’t be fearful of the future#it may not seem like it but he’s very passionate about his family and stuff. he seems like he’s livin super slow but he’s just taking the#time to appreciate things lol. he likes trying new things and seeing others experience things for the first time#he didn’t use to live like that tho. like who do you think Carolina and her siblings get their rambunctious nature from? XD#like if he didn’t already know what that personality entailed I don’t think he’d have made it LMAO like he KNOWS all the shit their pulling#cus it’s the same shit HE pulled!! 😭 oh I so badly wanna rambunctious Rory now lmao like. him and his 1st love were the personification of#a raging wildfire and flooding rains. both destructive in their own way#obviously they reeled that shit in eventually. like. look at him. Rory is literally just some short guy that makes the :3 face#he’s a lot more chill now. but he still has hellfire moments (how else would he keep his fire gremlins under control if not by pulling out#the hellfire?) anyways yea. Rory <3 love him lots he’s like love personified for me#ohh I also wanna show his reaper stuffs...gmmmhmhmmhm#Youtube

@lavendaers for Xue Yang
"Ow." Xingchen yelped a little as he poked his finger. "Not the right spot then." Xingchen said to himself as he tried again. He heard footsteps approaching. "Don't mind me. It's a beautiful day so just enjoying it." And weaving a basket

how’s everyones morning going
#Rasp Rambles#i am Having A Time <-crying because he’s realized there are very likely reasons as to why he’s scared to believe he’s lovable which#only got spurred on by listening to a song from a media he very recently got into where a specific character is portrayed as loving no one#but himself for a long while and eventually confessing towards the end of the song that the character has learned to love more than just#himself by the end of it (and the song got me thinking about how the character in question is usually portrayed as very into self care and#such and how i don’t really allow myself to treat me well for a number of reasons and only do the bare minimum for myself but very#begrudgingly because it always feels like a chore because i feel like its not worth it for a variety of reasons. and since the character is#from a dating sim game i was like “well he probably would like it if i treated myself better and with love” and then i kinda spiraled from#there and started crying a ton and looked up if there are possible reasons why i could be feeling like i’m undeserving of love and am#generally undesirable and a lot of the potential causes are things that are Very Likely with my past and my family’s history of mental#health issues and such and realizing that i could actually be deserving of the love i rob myself of and have robbed myself of for as long a#i can remember. i know the last time i allowed myself to feel loved in any way was when i was a lot younger (like maybe 10 or 11 years#old at most since the only family member i had that actually made me feel loved emotionally died around that timeframe) and it just. it#hurts to think about how i Could deserve the love and care i deprive myself of for reasons i can’t even begin to articulate if i tried. and#its almost 6am here and i’m crying like a little bitch because my feelings are too much and i should probably end this post here before i#start feeling worse than i already do. because at this point i’m starting to feel undeserving of my partner system and i know that if i#dwell on this too much longer it’ll only hurt more to think about. good night gamers.)
