i kinda like how that interview snippet pretty much just confirmed the whole "casca enjoyed it" thing. not because i dislike casca or anything, but the fans are in absolute shambles and clinging to their copium so hard... and it's so fucking funny. i wonder when will they finally wake up and realize that berserk is not quite what most of them think it is.

also, they claim it was mainly femto's actions that made casca's sanity shatter, but i disagree. it has a lot of factors, including the sight of her comrades (specially judeau) dying and getting devoured by apostles.

...a month later...

In fairness, I do think it's worth separating the people who are bothered because it's morally disturbing to them and the people who are mad because they don't like that Casca had feelings for Griffith and have been telling themselves that the speech where she admitted she was in love with him actually said that she wasn't.

It's kinda like the people who dislike the opening acolyte sex because they consider it cheating on Casca. You can make an argument that it was out of character (I'm mixed on this), but if so, that's not why. My point being, being disturbed by the suggestion that Casca enjoyed being raped is one thing, and being disturbed by feeling like the implication is that she was emotionally unfaithful to Guts is another thing.

There's also the group that's upset because they thought Miura was somehow above that kind of thing - this usually being the people who straight-facedly claim he didnt eroticize sexual assault, and I mean having that kind of copium pumped into your blood on an ongoing basis is kind of asking for hard reality checks.

As for what shattered her mind, I think it's strongly implied that the gang rape by apostles was the biggest trauma and Femto just kind of was the last straw. Because when she has traumatic flashbacks it's usually to that. Overall I think it was the cumulative experience of the Eclipse, though - the butchering, the sexual assault by who knows who many apostles, and then the final snap being Femto.

I’m not sure what it say that I scrolled the wrong direction on YouTube saw a silent guard in a scene for a second and a half with a weird smile, and went, Eddie, what are you doing in winterfell?

And was right.

the revelation that claudia’s rebirth was such a twisted and horrible moment, with louis dragging her like she was a thing, a stranger who neither of them knew but he kept saying over and over “our daughter, our beautiful little daughter” to lestat, really solidified the way she was never the main character of her own story. she was always an accessory to some or the other of louis’ whims: his guilt, his loneliness, his conflict of being a killer, his rocky relationship with lestat. there was love there, love from both her fathers, but it was never enough. lestat saw her too much as a wretched mirror held up to his own self, and louis was always too steeped in his own feelings to care enough about hers. claudia’s story truly was the greatest tragedy in this tale, treated horribly by every man around her, even her fathers, relentlessly exploited and brutally ignored, always second and never first. the only one who loved her the way she deserved to be loved was madeleine, and the moment she truly had her, her happiness was torn from her. and just before she died, she got to see someone actually choose her in her entirety, not for what she can be but for who she is, and it still wasn’t enough. she still burned alive in the sunlight. the love was there, but it wasn’t enough to save her.

just spent like 6 hours doing a full piece of willow and hunter to actually end up hating it and never touching it again

[wistfulenchantress]

completed.

EDIT: this has now, as of this edit, reached over 2,000 notes. And I have started doing the things. My life is still far from perfect, but I genuinely do scroll through all the replies and reblogs and watch people get other people to help and reassure me and check on me and it makes me feel so much more loved than i normally do. i'm even going to bed earlier because you said i should. i love all of you so much, and i owe you 2,053 times. all my love, witch.

ORIGINAL POST:

ok here goes. i haven't taken enough care of myself recently. so here we go

if this reaches 100 notes i will start doing yoga again, to help with my anxiety COMPLETE (how you guys are insane)

if this reaches 200 notes i'll start studying more and putting in more effort COMPLETE (o my gosh)

if it reaches 500 i will actually try my best to exercise for the right reasons, instead of random bursts of self-hatred/body hatred COMPLETE (i posted this yesterday evening)

if this reaches 700 notes i will try my absolute best to fix my sleep schedule COMPLETE (ok this is insane)

if this reaches 1000 notes i will be more honest with my therapist COMPLETE (dammit you guys ilysm but this is gonna be hard)

if this reaches 2300 notes i will be more honest with myself about why i am turning to tumblr for this kind of thing and write a poem about it. (this one is a joke since i think 5000 is impossible, and i will write a poem for you guys anyway. i love you) (i’ve now changed this to a more reasonable goal - one really close to what i have now - because honestly i want you guys to succeed because the fact that people are still on this post is insane and it makes me smile.) AND COMPLETE! (i love every person who interacted with this post so much it isn’t even funny. all my gratitude and adoration, witch)

this ends at the beginning of may. you can spam i guess i have 35 followers it prob wont even reach 100. but go ahead, tumblr, do your thing. lol

So, just curious how many writers and creators will have to be forcibly outed by relentless harassment before we acknowledge that "This queer characters was written by a cishet person and that's why they're bad" is not good criticism.

oh my fucking god i don't have any clothesssss

[angry-kid-with-no-money]

"Nora doesn't know anything about the things she writes about" "aftg is terrible queer rep" "the queer characters in aftg are so problematic"

Idk guys maybe the book series abt problematic ppl set in 2006 and written in the mid 2010s shouldn't be expected to hold up against scrutiny of what we consider to be moral and correct now, in 2024

Idk tho, idk
