Proship dni for my comfort thanks.
I feel like everyone portrays F/Os as these romantic, perfect all around lovers, and while that's all well and good! I prefer F/Os who are flawed, who don't always say the right things. Who can sometimes be petty or selfish. F/Os who have a habit of seeing conflict as a contest on who can talk the loudest, instead of a conversation. F/Os who run out of patience sometimes and have to go cool off mid-conversation, even if they're right. F/Os who struggle to communicate their emotions.
I find comfort in the idea of a relationship where mistakes like that are allowed and given room to breathe. A relationship where, no matter what the conflict is, the walls eventually come down. Maybe it takes hours, maybe days until you're both calm enough to work it out. Maybe it takes several conversations to solve it, but each end in Hey. I love you. I'll talk to you tomorrow.
You're not perfect, and neither is your F/O. That's okay. That can be beautiful, too. There's not a hug that's more comforting than the firm, tearful one after reaching mutual understanding. Knowing that you didn't mess it up too much, you didn't break things permanently. You couldn't if you tried. They missed you... and you've got some serious affection to catch up on.

NO NO NO NO NO NO NO that is literally not true. if you don't know how tumblr actually works why are you trying to tell people how it works? now 90% of the userbase is running around like headless chickens spreading misinfo and not even bothering to fact check and when you check the notes of the post the op is there like hi it's me no that was a sideblog i deleted myself or hi it's me i just changed my url. like how tf do yall even expect to be taken srsly if you dont actually know how tumblr works and you're running around conflating a situation based on misinformation like is this how yall act irl or do yall just lose common sense online fr

Sometimes the things I see recommended for having queer characters feels like I’m being recommended eating a turd cause there is corn in it.

It's the car imagery for me.
Car radio, next semester, taxi cab, a car a torch a death, overcompensate, Midwest indigo
For Tyler it feels like a car is a source, a symbol, of anxiety of loss of control.
Car radio is him unable to cope with the silence in his car.
Next semester is him barely jumping out if the way of an oncoming vehicle
In taxi cab the car is a saving grace, kinda, because it feels like he's still dead inside that hearse, he lost the battle
A car a torch a death- the whole time he's only stop from crashing the car, from jumping out onto the freeway, by the thought that someone might miss him,
Overcompensate- the whole dangerous bend symbol line IS a loss of control, loose control of the car by driving around a tight curve too fast
Throughout midwest indigo its filled with anxiety that he won't be on time, that he isn't driving fast enough
It is that struggle with control it feels like, it is the car front the heavy dirty soul mv.
Which is FASCINATING because how I interact with my car Is wildly different. My car is my little spot of freedom, of being able to sing at the top of my lungs, to work through problems and conversations, the only place where I can let loose and Cry.
Tyler is afraid of feeling his emotions in his car cuz it allows for the freedom of loosing control
My car is the only place I CAN feel so e of those emotions cuz my coping mechanisms r a little fucked.
I just- the car imagery

Can't decide whether I prefer Neuvillette looking like an old man (white hair + grandpa demeanour + dad vibes for all the melusine) or if I like him looking like a pretty, youthful model (super young by dragon years + in game model baby-face + actually very inexperienced in human conduct = immature?)
All the fanart I see kind of just picks one but idkkkk,,, I sort of enjoy the idea that he's kinda young looking but talks and acts very very old because, you know, in human terms he is very old. And everyone in Fontaine is used to it cos they all know he's not human and appearance ≠ reality. But people usually see him from pretty far away in the Opera house, so they can only see the white hair and hear his old man voice. So when he rarely does show up in person the public has a jumpscare of "oh not literally a grandpa huh uh oh".
And he definitely doesn't look like teenage or twenties, even youthful Neuvillette has gotta be like late thirties earliest. Mature but not actually as old as anyone would expect.
