i think one of the things the pjo show has understood the best so far is specifically the isolation and insecurities that come with being neurodivergent, and how it reflects onto percy. the book touches on it a lot, but i think rick really wanted to push percy's own internal struggles more obviously to the forefront for the show.
Percy references again and again how inattentive and zoned out he is constantly, and how he blames himself for being stuck in his own world. He feels crazy and misjudged by everyone around him just for having what everyone else presumes is a very active imagination, hyperactivity, and a brain that works differently. and when people do acknowledge his differences, even attempting to spin them positively to him, like Sally and "Mr. Brunner," it only makes him feel worse, because again the only thing they can tell him is that he's "special," inherently other, something he's come to associate with being an embarrassing and shameful thing, with Nancy calling him "special" as an insult. I've seen "special" thrown at nd kids as an insult by their peers over and over again since I was little. So Percy can't help but believe it's a negative thing, no matter what the adults that do support him in his life try to tell him, because it's been internalized that he's just different in a way that's bad and inferior, and that that there's a reason he's lonely and troubled and delinquent. Even if it was a positive thing, like Sally and "Mr. Brunner" insist to him, he feels inherently isolated and confused and wrong in the mortal world for being different, and like there's nothing that can change that or make him normal.
We see Percy break down in front of Sally after being expelled about how he's terrified something's irrevocably wrong inside him now. And his immediate reaction of rage and confusion when the only thing she can tell him, once again, is that he's special. And I think that is really going to resonate with a generation of nd people who've experienced these types of scenarios.

I love your au by the way but while I was looking through I haven't seen any grunkle Stan yet
Does he live at the mystery shack too? Maybe Bill convinced Ford to try to repair their relationship?
Or and I hope I'm wrong about this
Stan is in the portal and that's why Ford did the cool little mine deal
------
Oh, don't worry! Stan's there alright. He's just a little busy being digested at the moment. Hunger is greedy, after all.
#submission#SORRY FOR THE EVER CRYPTIC ANSWER- I just need the keep some if these answers as vague as possible to allow myself some wriggle room if#I happen to change any aspect of the lore in the future 💀💀💀#anyways! I'll hopefully manage to string up a coherent enough explanation for y'all in soon time :)#sput chatters#gravity falls au#gravity falls#HWINEBHABWNAJCAHOWEEATOWEUB AU

CW: Yandere Themes,
⋆⁺₊⋆ ☾⋆⁺₊⋆
Just a quick thought: Yandere!Sunday who is a galactic pop superstar.
He sees you at one of his concerts during a slower song when he looks up from the piano keys, floating in a sea of faces. Instantly you stand out to him. There's something chimerical in this moment, he thinks.
When he finishes up the set, quickly moving backstage to prepare for the next set, he makes a decision: he has to know more.
You get invited backstage after the concert, truly a dream. He sits on a plush light grey sofa, calmly smiling at you as he does to all his fans, but his golden eyes glitter and swirl with unreadable emotions. You've intrigued him.
Every moment that passes after this meeting seems to topple over like dominoes placed by a steady and swift hand. Invites to secret sessions turn into tickets offered over social media. Slowly, Sunday pulls you into his world, makes you his greatest muse. When the songs on his latest album are picked apart, atom by atom, the analysts surmise that there must be someone. And when Sunday responds to these allegations at a concert with a sly smile and a glint in his eyes, his fanbase erupts, demanding to know more.
But they will know nothing, Sunday thinks as he walks backstage, taking off his mic and his opulent outfit. He returns to his hotel room that evening to see you, safe and sound, your breathtaking eyes still painted in strange shades and hues from when he sung songs meant just for you.
He asks you if you would like to go to Penacony with him to watch him sing in the Charmony Festival, and you reply with bright eyes and a smile on your face.
One day very soon, Sunday will sing a song that will send the entire universe into an eternal dream. But in this moment, your beautiful, foolish mind completely ensnared by his siren-like voice, he feels like he is dreaming.
#yandere#yandere x reader#yandere x you#yandere drabble#yandere hsr#yandere imagine#yandere sunday#yandere sunday x reader#yandere honkai star rail#yandere hsr x reader#ahhh writer's block will be the death of me#i have some ideas though??? hopefully#idk if this is coherent sorry lskdgjsdg#so many more thoughts on sunday but...idk#i need to work on his characterization#and i also need to stop talking in these tags

was just thinking about how fitzjames begs to be fed to his men when he's dead, and goodsir lives in constant fear of the cannibals he's surrounded by. and yet their suicide methods are the same. even though fitzjames wanted his body to he made use of, the meat was all poisoned anyway. and just like colonialism eats away at the people it displaces, so too does it devour the very men who uphold it. the meat is all poisoned.

Virus!Eclipse design for my fic 'And So It Goes'
Design notes under the cut ^^
Eclipse is mainly based on Baloon World Eclipse as well as the Puppet and MXES. It is primarily red to contrast with MXES since it's a virus and MXES is some sort of protection code
Eclipse is red instead of purple to differentiate between when animatronics are possessed by the vanny virus vs when their possessed by Eclipse itself
I like to imagine all dca variants have paws. The idea of them having human feet scares me
I've always associated this kind of long tailcoat with a corset (or corset like clothing) with bunnies for some reason. No idea where that idea's from, maybe becuse they kind of look like rabbit ears
Eclipse has bells attached to his ribbons but you can't really see them from that angle
Eclipse has faint hypnosis swirls in his lure state so that people can't really tell what's happening and assume he just has white eyes like Sun. It also likes to swing its 'tentacles' around to desorient prey
Eclipse's tenticles/wires are not a part of his body, there can be as many or as few as you'd like. They can also form from objects or the ground
As Eclipse is a digital entity, it is able to alter it's body on a whim. His standard form is shown above, it always has four arms
The average person reaches Eclipse's hips, most Animatronics reach his middle-lower torso. However, Eclipse is able to alter its size which is usually based on trust, it'll make itself bigger if it feels threatened and smaller if it feels safe
#He's not in it yet but he'll be in the next chapter! (Chapter 8)#this may be my lonest image description yet lol#hopefully it was coherent#and so it goes#dca eclipse#dca x reader#dca community#dca fanart#daycare attendent#daycare attendant fnaf#daycare attendant eclipse#eclipse fnaf#fnaf eclipse#vecart#daycare attendant#cw bright colors#cw scopophobia#?

i was just talking to maisie about this but have we thought about the potential of mr reca removing unpleasant memories from your mind? not things from your past, because those things have made you who you are and who he fell in love with, but events that occur after you are his. i feel like that’s a fairly obvious notion given his abilities but aaaaaaah i just !!!!! think he would have such a hard time keeping his hands to himself and not tampering with your mind when you come to him exceptionally upset about something that happened.
he doesn’t expect it to affect him nearly as much or as hard as it does, but seeing his precious baby so unbelievably distraught over something (and what that something actually is—the severity of it—doesn’t fucking matter. what matters is that his little girl is upset and he must fix it) has a sudden, intense need clawing at his chest; an urgent desire that has sprouted talons and sharp, gnashing teeth and before he can even comprehend what he’s fucking doing, he’s soothing you by devouring that memory, burning it to ash, making sure it can never hurt you again.
#mr reca x reader#mr reca x you#the idea is just that he can’t bear to see his baby in pain#it pains HIM to see you in pain#and obviously there are moral repercussions#lots to consider there particularly in the fact that it would stunt your personal strength and growth yadda yadda#hopefully that makes sense i am dead tired right now HAHAHA#i just wanted to get this out!!!#inky.reca#late night barely coherent thoughts wooooo

just imagining buck and tommy having sex for the first time and buck is doing his normal macho seducer routine cause he’s so used to having to be in charge and tommy just very gently tells buck to let him take the reins and for the first time in his life buck actually gets to give up control during sex and feel taken care of and not like anything is expected of him
just. buck getting to discover everything that comes with being into guys and getting to fully experience that with someone who knows what he’s doing and will both take care of and ~take care of~ him
#i’m having thoughts but not coherent enough to write a fic so here ya go#if anyone wants to write this fic please fucking do and tag me in it when you do#i’m just so excited for this storyline it’s gonna serve so hard#and i’m so excited for buck to get railed it’s what he deserves#hopefully the implied innuendo on the second take care of came through#911 spoilers#911 abc#911#evan buckley#tommy kinard#bucktommy

Some yandere thoughts
CW: Yandere, threats, force, referenced violence and dubcon intimacy, just some general thoughts
Been thinking about the logistics of a selfish yandere who wants to be the submissive one following your lead paired with someone who resolutely doesn’t want to be with the yandere.
They so desperately wants you to be in charge, for you to be the one to lay down the law and have them at your beck and call, but you just don’t want or do any of the things you’re supposed to (namely, staying with and loving the yandere!).
Thinking of how they’d immediately expect you to behave “correctly”, without any guiding or explanations, and is livid when you fail this mental game of house and its many untold rules.
Yandere who has such a specific idea of what life with you should be, what you should be, that they take it as a punishable offense and threat when you veer from it even slightly – why my darling always eats first, to not do so… it’s practically the same as destroying our lives, isn’t it?!
Yandere who’ll give orders and threats to maneuver you into the right position, straddling the yandere, forcing you to not only be intimate but to take the lead in said intimacy.
Nails digging into and breaking skin, warning tuts when you begin to waver in-between kisses and forced passion.
The yandere sighs dreamily and acts as if it’s what you want, as if its you who upended their life to love and ravage them, as if they’re just haplessly letting you do whatever you want, despite the bruises and marks still littering your body from punishments.
Oh, right now in the kitchen? You’re insatiable, but if that’s what darling wants. As they keep a warning hand wrapped around your throat.
Yes, in this house there’s a right way to act – and you’ll learn first-hand what the right ways are, even if it means taking charge of your own torture.
#yandere#yandere x reader#minors dni#AnglingThoughts#Just a random thought I had while making breakfast#so hopefully its coherent lol

right now Ed and Stede are tucked in for the night, all tangled up in bed with Ed’s head on Stede’s chest, and Stede is reading aloud from the book that they’ve been working through together for the past few nights, and Ed is trying so hard to stay awake and pay attention to the story but Stede is so warm and the blankets are so soft and Ed can hear the gentle beating of Stede’s heart through the fabric of his nightshirt and Stede is mindlessly massaging Ed’s head while he does a silly voice for one of the characters in the book and neither of them have ever felt so safe and content in their life. btw

Something I've always found fascinating about Raymond Shields is that despite seemingly having altruistic reasons for being a defense attorney, his reasons for trying to convince Miles to be one are anything but.
It seems understandable enough on the surface. After Ray comes around and agrees to work with Miles in The Imprisoned Turnabout, he sees remnants of Gregory shining through him despite von Karma's influence. Whether or not he recognizes that Miles' decision to become a prosecutor wasn't just born from that alone—that it was in tandem with wanting to distance himself from anything that reminded him of his father to alleviate the burden on his heart—is up for debate, but regardless: he acknowledges Miles as Gregory's son through and through and wants to capitalize on his dedication for pursuing justice in a way that he knows would make his father proud. He wants to let Miles in on the life he was robbed of at 9 years old—the life he once dreamed of living, where he follows in the footsteps of his father by giving everything he has to save people, by fighting like hell for the vulnerable and the condemned.
That said, as much as Ray dresses up his proposition by making it out to be as if he's looking out for Miles' best interests (and the best interests of society, even)...his motives for trying to get Miles to switch sides are almost entirely selfish. Ray's efforts (and most of his actions in general, really) are ultimately a product of his desperate attempt to cling on to anything related to Gregory out of an inability to move on from his death. Wearing his hat and coat, leaving the name of his office unchanged...and now, requesting that his son literally change jobs just because he can't bear the weight of his own loneliness anymore. Because he can't bear to think that the damage done by DL-6 is irreversible and Miles has moved on while he has stagnated for the past 17 years. Because he has an idealized vision of what he thinks Gregory would want and fails to realize that his son's occupation wouldn't matter to him as long as it brings him happiness and fulfillment. In his mind, letting Miles go means accepting the circumstances that brought him where he is and allowing both of them to move on. And that terrifies him.
It's even more deceitful when you realize that Ray's pitch comes at a very opportune time for Miles given his circumstances at that point: that is, he's under threat of investigation for prosecutorial misconduct and at risk of being stripped of his badge. Ray might fake incompetence, but he's not stupid—and he takes full advantage of Justine's warnings to try to sway Miles when he's in a more vulnerable position in terms of his job. Which is...pretty fucked up, to put it lightly. Despite having a better idea of where he came from compared to most people, through this Ray shows a lack of understanding of who Miles truly is and a lack of respect for what he's come to value, even if his path toward obtaining those values had some bumps along the road. But he's so blinded by his grief that he doesn't even stop to consider how much he's really asking of him, or what Miles is really searching for.
Ray was moved by Gregory. He values saving people. Defending the weak is an undeniably noble endeavor. But to ask that of someone else without consideration for their best interests is decidedly less so.
For all his occupation requires a certain selflessness, Raymond Shields is far more selfish than he lets on. And I for one find that contradiction fascinating to unpack.
#ace attorney#phoenix wright ace attorney#pwaa#aa#ace attorney investigations#aai2#raymond shields#eddie fender#<-i'm not calling him that bc i strongly dislike that name. but just to prevent confusion#miles edgeworth#gregory edgeworth#aai2 spoilers#meta#my meta#hopefully this is coherent. i am currently at war with my fog headaches as we speak#aai announcement means i've got ray on the brain again. surprise surprise#sometime in the near future i also want to explore the possibility of ray losing his altruism at some point after gregory's death#or at the very least how it becomes less genuine. and he only keeps it up because it's what he thinks gregory would want#i have a LOT of feelings about how his need to keep up the good person act is EXTREMELY reminiscent of sister iris in that way#but this post is already long and if i write any more i may not have a functioning brain tomorrow soooo. another time unfortunately#↖️ this user is NOT normal about raymond shields ace attorney and you best BELIEVE she's going to make it everyone's problem

reid's reaction when emily says "we missed your birthday" is so fucking. agh.
he nods and smiles and then very quickly looks down.
TIME TO READ INTO IT WHOOOOO:
when they missed his birthday, he was like. "eh. it's fine. i'm thirty now, i don't need my friends to throw me a party. i'm an adult, i'm not upset about it."
especially because i'm sure reid didn't have a lot of awesome birthdays pre-series. i always got the impression he was mostly friendless until he joined the team, with ethan as the only exception (and in my heart they met and became friends in college, despite canon suggesting it was as young children). diana loved him and i'm sure she would have been lovely on his birthday, but i doubt she always remembered it (in the flashback to william leaving in 2x15 she doesn't know what day it is—i think it's very plausible that could happen on at least some of his birthdays) and if she did, she might not have been in the right headspace to celebrate it like she wanted.
(and even if she remembered and she was doing well, i really struggle to see any version of diana and spencer post-william leaving who wouldn't have had serious financial issues)
and then after spencer moves diana into assisted living (possibly on his birthday or at least close to it) he's mostly alone until he meets gideon. (again, except for ethan)
so, in summary: pre-bau spencer's birthdays were probably infrequently celebrated, and when they were celebrated, they were probably a lot less of a Big Deal than other peoples' were, for various reasons. so spencer spends about a decade growing used to not celebrating his birthday, then joins the bau and spends about a decade getting used to celebrating it, and then...they forget. not only do they forget, they forget the big three-oh.
so he tells himself not only that he's too old now to care about his birthday, but he spent so long not celebrating it anyway, and he's fine. it's fine.
and then emily finds out. and it's not fine. and he is upset about it.
#emily prentiss#spencer reid#emily & reid#criminal minds#criminal minds s07e11#criminal minds 7x11#true genius#character analysis#scene analysis#been awhile since one of those. hopefully it's coherent/makes sense#not fic#criminal minds rewatch#my gifs#using a new program! hopefully it looks better now#debated adding a read more to this. i dont THINK its too long but if it is just tell me and ill add one#i dont bite

things i noticed/thoughts about most recent rewatches of dps (plus laserdisk deleted scenes):
whenever theres a group scene i've started watching the characters that the story isn't focusing on to see what they do and i've been having a fun time with that. pitts and cameron specifically seem to almost always be doing something interesting in the background.
hopkins!!!! my favorite minor character who somehow got character development despite having like 2 lines!!!! the last guy to stand on the desk but he did it!!!
sometimes i do like to think about what the rest of the students thought about the dead poets society, esp in alternate timeline neil lives dps keeps meeting universe. like yeah theres this guy in their class whose one of the most credited students in the school and we think he maybe started a cult. idk though. but that group runs out into the woods every few days to do god knows what and one of them keeps talking about "dead poets honor" whatever that means and holy shit welton star student neil perry started a cult.
i watched the movie with headphones. and maybe it's because ive seen this movie Far too many times and mabe i'm listening too hard but it was Really obvious sometimes when audio was added in post production. llke in the sweaty toothed madman scene when you can hear laughing and to be fair the camera is behind their heads. but it does Not look like anyone's laughing. my favorite is at the end of the phone call to chris scene where knox is like i'm gonna seize the day!! and runs up the stairs and the poets are cheering him on and neil is sort of yelling "carpe!!!!" and i could be wrong but i'm like 75% certain that the person singing is Also rsl so now neil is just speaking two times at once somehow. anyways it didn't ruin the experience for me or anything it was maybe just a little bit funny to notice but very sorry if this did ruin anyone's viewing.
people talk a lot about how rsl and ethan hawke really made their characters what they are but i have to add dylan kussman to that list. I get the impression that older versions of the movie didn't really give as much depth to cameron and watching dylan kussmans performance is like. he Knew who his character was so fucking well and it shows!! like the deleted scene of them getting clubs assigned. like i could tell So Much about cameron from that scene
for how little she actually appeared, there is an emphasis put on the fact that neil's mom smokes pretty frequently. and i think that's interesting considering neil is one of two poets shown actively smoking. neil's mom doesn't appear for very long in the movie but during that time it definitely seems like the movie is intentionally making parallels between the two, particularly in the last argument with neil's father. neil and his mother are both sitting for almost the whole time, which contrasts with his father who is standing. they are both almost powerless in this scene. they stand up at almost the same time. anyways there's a couple different possibilities for what this could mean? that i've though of? 1. to show that neil's mother is in a similar situation to the one neil is in in regards to neil's father and 2. maybe a stretch here but the theory that neil inherited his mental illness at least partially from his mother. i'm pretty sure 1 was fully intentional on the directors part, not entirely sure about 2 though
unmanned flying desket scene: it's probably cause he and ethan wrote the scene themselves but the way rsl talks in this scene feels more like the way he talks in general than the rest of the script. like briefly neil perry is talking in rsl's voice. one of my absolute favorite scenes though the sarcastic dialogue is so good.
the light of knowledge at the first shot of the film vs. todd standing on his desk at the last shot of the film paralel
#there was a whole additional part of this post that was about knox and charlies relationship with their parents#but it ended up being half of what i wrote here and i still had more to add so i'm making that a separate post#that should be posted in a few days i'm not a fast writer#neil perry#richard cameron#gerard pitts#todd anderson#dead poets society#dps#hopefully coherent
