#HUSBAND#this scene is a veritable gold mine of screencap opportunities#i got several more and will be posting those because i am physically unable to stop#HE’S SO#he’s everything i could ever dream of#absolutely love the closer shots of him#one of my favorite fights in gladiator and i love how you really begin to see maximus finding himself again#he’s been fighting with pure anger and bitterness up until now#but now he’s revealed himself and he’s becoming maximus again#he’s very purposeful in this fight#he loses his footing and gets caught off guard by the tigers#but he’s so intentional with how he fights tigris and entertains the crowd#never flashy but at this point he’s aware of the crowd and playing to that#but let’s not get distracted from the main point which is HOT HOT HOT HOT HOT#i wish i was a sword getting gripped in those iron strong hands#i wish i was a grain of sand on his skin#can’t explain how much i need to leave marks down his back and neck and arms and everything else#i need to just COVER him with love and affection#i wish i had him in my arms right this second#just want to cover him with kisses and caresses and snuggles#he doesn’t need to be fighting in an arena#he needs to be hugged#precious love of my life so dear to my heart#one day i will find a way to truly express my love for him#until then: look at the sexy man#gladiator#maximus#maximus decimus meridius#gladiator 2000#russell crowe

I finally watched Animator VS Animation. I uh... I have feels. Those are some EXPRESSIVE stickmen, damn! If anything, AVA is a masterclass on body language! But it also happens to be fun, spectacular, emotional and beautiful! So much effort goes into every episode, I as a fellow animator I am measuring the amount of work and I am HORRIFIED! So it is time for another episode of "Sel finds stuff on the internet" : Go watch AVA! You won't be disappointed!
#AVA Victim#AVA TCO#AVA Mitsi#ava agent smith#ava yellow#Ok but let's be honest#I had no idea what Victim's deal was at the time of the Box.#So I was very confused about this whole fight and its purpose#but still.... the whip crack got to me. XD#Pardon me for simping for a man who knows how to crack a whip#But then you learn that he is a traumatized nerd#good with engineering and looking to help people#and he has such a cute adorable life#AND THEN TRAGEDY#I could not fix him but by god will I observe him!!#ALAN LET HIM BE HAPPY!! XD#As for all the stickman torture... Yeah that was common at the time.#Usually your OCs don't start MOVING AND FUCKING UP YOUR PC! XD#anyways : a fantastic series! :D

spoilers for my fanfic but i dont know if ill have the energy to finish it, so here's some uh oh doodles
#my art#anihita europa#messmer the impaler#sote#sote spoilers#for context in case u want it. messmer chose rellana's loyalty over anihita's oaths so she dipped. messmer ended up regretting his choice#bc rellana is sort of using her position to feel a sense of fulfillment and purpose and he doesn't want to BE her purpose#but he didn't want to abandon what he saw as a treasured friend and companion. but rellana said some very bad things about ani regarding he#uh. situationship with rennala. and messmer didn't tell her to cut it out. so anihita left. couldnt do it. cant do this again.#messmer ultimately tried to help anihita in the final fight and miquella stole his eyeball and released the base serpent#so ani had to fight the base serpent. and the starscourge. and a god. all at once#and she fucking did it. but god she does not want to be alive anymore.

"Matthew before we start, I wanna talk to you about your mouthguard. What's the purpose of it? What purpose does it serve 'cuz it's never in your mouth?" "I mean, I guess it doesn't really serve that much of a purpose all the time? I try to keep it in as best I can but its got a mind of its own, and it's everywhere so... I don't know. I think in the important times I have it in? But it's not all the time." "Does that bother anyone? Teammates? Opposition? Probably your mum? Does she say anything?" "Yeah, my mom did not like it at the start but she's completely given up on it. Call it about 8 years ago, 9 years ago, when I came into the NHL she gave up on it so. I don't know! Teammates don't really care. Opposition? I've had it grabbed a few times but it's all good." "It's workin' for ya."

#matthew tkachuk#florida panthers#2425#crying at how deadpan the prime reporter is THATS WHAT HEIGHTENS THE DELIVERY OF “what purpose does it serve”#maffhew laughing about it too#man who must always be questioned about his mouthguard habits#“i try to keep it in as best i can but its got a mind of its own and its everywhere so”#why do you talk about it like its a tail 😭😭😭#what a little puppy tail that cant help but wag is that what this is do we express our mood through the wagging mouthguard stim#when youre so happy and you are unfortunately human and dont have a tail to wag but the wiggles consume you so you wag your foot instead#mouth guard edition?#PLEASE CHANTAL GAVE UP ON HIM SHE FOUGHT THE GOOD FIGHT AND LOST PRAYING FOR HER FR#“but its all good” he says like a saint outstretching his arms out in forgiveness#as if he didnt provoke everyone in ripping it out in the first place#he has talked about how there were other instances where someone has ripped it out after the kreids ecf incident but he never dropped names#and he brought it up again AND STILL HASNT DROPPED NAMES#IM NOSY A VERY LET ME SEEEEE I WANNA KNOWWWWW TELL MEEEEEEEE

i am stirring together a co-dependent sibling au... i am flavouring it with a subtle note of yuusaku corruption arc... garnishing with implied sugiyuu and topping it off with a splash of vasio... i am expanding the metaphor of guilt and sacrifice and letting them be changed by each other...
#i am reviving the sacrificial lamb for character parallel purposes#pls dont tag as yuuo thanks#golden kamuy#artfromthefrogs#gk#ogata hyakunosuke#gk ogata#hanazawa yuusaku#gk yuusaku#i think it would be very funny if the first and only time yuusaku ever draws a weapon it would be to defend his brothers honour from vasily#this is a battle he 100% fights on his own. his own personal russo-japanese war. no one is good enough for his super cool big brother#least of all this creepy white boy. this is an au where ogata scores about 300% less than in canon

this is how i think the valentino/casey rivalry plays out in their minds
#the text is just for comic effect to be clear like don't try to read all that. i didn't put enough thought into it for people to read it#//#brr brr#valentino does end up in a more complicated place with casey but the weird thing about it is that -#- the shift only happens for all intents and purposes AFTER the 'rivalry' in on-track terms is kinda over#but then he doesn't even really continue the off-track rivalry in any meaningful way after 2012#so there's only like a three year time period where valentino got proper weird about casey. not the same continuity#(i'm not saying his behaviour in '08 was 'normal' but emotionally it's very straightforward. to him it's normal to casey it seems deranged)#'base casey' i think was a very comfortable rival for valentino. like he's a tough one to crack obviously but it's a comfort zone opponent#you don't have anything emotionally complicated. which is basically how valentino WOULD prefer it. just the fight for the win#what's really fascinating is that insofar as casey DID unsettle valentino in later years it was in the ways in which he increasingly -#- adapted bits of valentino's playbook to suit his own needs. vale's always least comfortable when fighting a reflection of himself#heretic tag

Eurylochus trying to physically drag odysseus by his ankles as odysseus clings to some tree root. (They've reached a stalemate. Polites couldn't make it today for some reason, he had blacksmithing training.)
Eurylochus: how the fuck are you king?
Odysseus, who needs to get all his dramatics out before going back to being responsible: didn't you hear i stole it from my dad
Eurylochus: nevermind I'm just going to kill you
Odysseus: I mean you can try ONE of us is being trained by the goddess of war
@www-dot-why-are-you-here-dot-com
#hey odysseus you missed that thing#And are now pissing me off by being late to training#eurylochus#odysseus#epic: the musical#Pre-canon#Their doomed friendship my beloved#To be clear odysseus is a good king he's just also 16 and relaxing with his friends rn#Know that the ensuring wrestling match did make them both very late making the argument pointless#Which was on purpose on odysseus's part because he is a rat bastard#Oh wait headcanon that this is the first time eury sees Athena because she shows up 2 hours in to go#Eurylochus dropping to his knees like fuck fuck fuck#As odysseus just grins up at the goddess from the mud like 'sup Athena I think you'll find it was getting a head start on fight training#Athena then banishing eurylochus back to his home because “move mortal this is my special time with my fav”#Eurylochus laying on his floor for 4 hours screaming internally#He had thought odysseus was /lying/ about being trained by the goddess of war

remember null? well after lore progression and violence he regained his true self now
say hi to narrow (or, nicknamed by hana, anguria which means watermelon in italian)
lore rambling in the tags because i'm not assed to write it here
#tenka willow#my sona#oc:narrow#my ocs#my art#i never said it here cus i have null's lore only written in my art fight but in VERY short words#null was basically a chimera made by anemone out of the cast-away guardian Narrow and willow#whose purpose was to eradicate a whole species in the realm whom both willow and anemone despise#anemone inserted a chip into null's body so that he ONLY focused on eradicating that species#because it was the destiny himawari gave to willow. even tho that was basically genocide#so hana and a few others worked together to try to beat anemone's ass (and failed)#however anemone told them the placement of the chip after his ass being kicked a bit#then after that they beat null's ass. and got the chip out. and he regained his true self. YAY!!!!!!!!!#now they're probably gonna be on a quest to find narrow's actual body.............#which is cast away for thousands of years in another planet#being dormant. for so long. so basically narrow is an old man#his actual form is supposed to be a salamander-fish thing i guess#anyways um this is explained very briefly and vague if you have more questions do ask#i literally don't post about lore shit here ever 😭😭i have so much worldbuilding i didn't tell anyone but my brother

Bucky: Hey, you want some leftovers?
Buck: What's that?
Bucky: You've never had leftovers?
Buck: No, because I'm not a quitter.
Buck: Also my dad used to gamble all our savings away so I always finished my meals since I never knew when the next would be.
#hc that once Buck is comfortable with someone he trauma dumps#not on purpose or anything since he doesn't really consider it a trauma#to him it's more like private anecdotes#bucky is very much not of the same mind#he gets whisplash from it sometimes#how innocent a conversation would start to this#he just wants to take care of gale and make him feel loved and happy 🥹#also he wants to fight gale's dad and if he ever meets him#cleven sr won't have a good time#clegan#buck x bucky#gale cleven#buck cleven#john egan#bucky egan#mota#masters of the air#mota incorrect quotes

Continuing to clean up my files, I've come across some sketches I did for @pickledcarrotsandradish 's Reverse Order fic, which is.
Uh.
The future timeline, but what if the death orders of the turtles was reversed. And I, like a fool! Like an absolute dumbass! Was like, " oh I've read plenty of fics where I've seen each and every of the characters die. I'll be fine!"
I was not fine!
So like! Spoilers!
But, uh. I am in shambles.
I highly recommend op's other Rise fics; they're all very good!
And this next sketch isn't really based on any fic, but loosely inspired by the above mentioned fic, and a few others, making brain go:
"huh, I wonder what kinda krang designs the other boys would have?"
Fucked up!
#illustration#rottmnt#rise of the tmnt#rottmnt fanart#body horror#digital art#injury#tmnt#kraang#rottmnt krang#rise krang#i guess- it legit did not occur to me that krang shit counts until recently bc i. like stated above! am very very stupid#i do love pickledcarrotsandradishes other rise fics but i appear to be under a weird and specific curse where everytime i try to draw for#them-specifically Times Five- everything turns out just. horrifically off model and ugly as shit. i have several half done sketch pages.#the gods are laughing at me#i tried to be like. deliberate with the krang transformations to reflect like. character and narrative shit. dunno if i succeeded.#uh for some extra horror i figure mikeys extra strong mystics would be constantly fighting the krang goop and thus! hed be kinda fully awar#donnied maybe be stuck in a loop where hes getting the information but hes completely disconnected from his brain. and the krang are keepin#leo conscious on purpose. bc theyre assholes

i’ve said this soooo many times but i cannot believe the widespread fandom take on nightmares is ‘episode that proves john didn’t hit the kids or at least that sam didn’t know about :)’ NO??? that entire episode is to directly parallel sam to max??? i really hate to break it to you guys but sam being like Damn at least we weren’t and aren’t still being regularly beat to shit by the two male parental figures in our lives 🙏 lucky to have dad fr is not the same as him saying Wow i’m so grateful dad never hit us at all. essentially he is literally like ‘if dad had got drunk more often and hadn’t channeled his energy into hunting maybe we would’ve ended up like max. guess i should be grateful he didn’t”. hello. how does that endorse an entirely violence-free parenting style. like have your own interpretation. but the text of the episode isn’t saying John didn’t hit them. the text of the episode is intentionally bringing up the concept of john hitting them, withholding direct judgement/confirmation on whether it happened and keeping it ambiguous, sure, but still bringing it to our attention.
#Supernatural withholds judgement on everything so like.#it does it well in early seasons ambiguity is good! and. Less Well in later seasons#it’s also ironic cause like. i mean they were regularly Getting beat to shit via.#. monster fighting. neglecting to protect kids from physical harm also counts as physical abuse. btw.#but that’s like. the obvious takeaway#and so is dean’s little Look at the end of the ep which is obviously meant to imply that he doesn’t agree with sam. which. well#but like. idk it’s a widespread fandom idea too that if john did hit them he only hit dean. i even used to go by that!! but ur ignoring even#more subtext if u think that#and like#it’s Purposeful that the first psychic kid we see who sam very strongly identifies with#is a kid w a physically abusive father they write like this on purpose….#they do it again with sam in s7 too. him & amy pond r directly paralleled and we see her mom hit her on screen that eps what made me change#my mind re my opinion on this in regards to sam#anyway.#spn#oliver talks#winchester family dynamics#spn 1x14

andrzej sapkowski in the witcher presents his reader with many curious and refreshing takes on the fantasy genre, such as "what if dragons were good" and "what if elves were incels"
#i joke it's more like what if the ethereal being had angsty mournful man feelings#that he has feelings but can't work through them because#overemotionality is considered base and human so he's basically been bottling all of this for centuries#the elbow-high diaries#plus that his only purpose was really to be with lara and now she's gone and so what does that make him#i'm not getting all MRA lmaoooo what i'm saying is that there needs to be two to make a baby so he was one-half of that#and destiny didn't work out as planned so ... this is all that's left#reading ch 5 of lotl for the first time: THIS IS SO MESSED UP WHAT THEY ARE DOING TO CIRI!!!#reading ch 5 of lotl again and again: my god EVERYONE here is so messed up and SAD. well except eredin#eredin is like cool im gonna go fight a unicorn#'what are you talking about he wanted to kill auberon?' but not in a very intelligent way he was like to ciri 'so you wanna... kill him?'#imo book eredin is kind of a meathead and it's kind of refreshing with all these 4D chess players around

legit, it is really funny some people characterize Antoine as like this like naive and innocent ingenue type when every single sentence that man says proves him to be someone who knows exactly what kind of suffering and despair is in the world and because he knows is choosing joy and hope on purpose, and also sometimes mischief
#yes he's constantly needing to be rescued from the trouble he gets into but that's not really the same thing#I've made like 40% of the posts in the Antoine tag and read fic so I see a lot of how people think of Antoine and truly like#he is well aware of what is out there. he's doing it on purpose.#also he comes across very grounded in his cheerfulness and very pragmatically aware of what he's betting on when he chooses to be hopeful#he isn't without grim determinations and steely resolves. he knows what his task is as a Warden and how difficult the Blight is to fight#DATV things

Chef greg delivery just for you. it's a wonder I hadn't bearified him yet, he's my fave greg too 🔪
gays literally only want one thing (to be chopped up and eaten by a depressed man) and it's fucking disgusting
