my favorite aspect of vaultghoul is how they started off with such an intense power imbalance, but lucy managed to flip it on its head by single-handedly taking out that facility and helping him. in one swift move she showed him that her ideals aren't just cotton candy. that she can be strong AND good. he may have played a hero once upon a time, but she's the real deal.
you can see that's precisely what's on his mind when he meanders in there and pops in one of his old movies. the exact movie that marked a moral shift for his heroic character.
The audience, they wanna see that even a good man such as yourself can be driven too far.
and he was. he was driven so far into doing what it took to survive that he forgot what it takes to be human. lucy is his reminder.

i've tried making some sort of post about it since last night probably 4 or 5 times, but I finally got to read through Dungeon Meshi and it's hard to like..... talk about how i feel about it...? not that it is a confusing story!!
I think it is genuinely so good in so many different ways/directions it's kind of hard to pick just one thing and roll with it you know? but it felt life-changing kind of.. in a way that's hard to put into words.. yes i will take things slow, yes i will stop looking at food and rest as rewards and not the bare minimum my body needs for it to carry out the tasks i give it effectively. yes i see the importance of not only doing the things you want to do, and the ways that only doing what you want can come back to bite you in the ass.
so on and so forth, it was just really good.. i think the biggest bittersweet thing i felt by the end of it was a gut punch feeling of wanting to share a meal with someone ಥ_ಥ there is also something very raw in watching someone literally give themselves the strength they need to make it through the day, and it's not even extraordinary it's just.. they take care of themselves. each other (´ . .̫ . `) i hope to find myself in similar company one day.

People dont actually get michael/sebastian like the way i get them and im actually frustrated. There are lots you can do with their dynamics, lots that you can manipulate and make it into your own stories. You guys need to remember that Sebastian first "love" isnt mark but its MICHAEL and he was 10 years old. Its insane that theres not much fics about them. They literally covers up a wholeee spectrum of dynamics. Seb making michael as his idol, the person he aspires to be, and then he joins f1 and worked in the same field as his hero. They turned from colleagues to friends in a short amount of time given how much seb looks up to him and michael, who only wants the best for seb, was there supporting and driving alongside him especial during ROC. Michael also admits that the relationship him and seb has is something so special that in his world of ego can never be possibly achieved so easily and he never took it for granted, never took sebastian for granted even though he knew how much seb looks up to him all the time. And seb winning ROC 6 times consecutively alongside michael mustve mean a lot to him like genuinely i feel like thats the peak of his life. Whats more is that during michaels last race, he helped seb, doesnt try to fight him during the race and if that doesnt evoke something in you, something that makes you go "oh they've turn into something more than mentor/mentee," then you're missing out with one of the best pairing for seb.

I love charles winners mentality and whenever ppl ask him abt any position he is that is not p1 (in anything) he's immediately like "yeah it's fine just not something i particularly care" or "it's good just not what im aiming for" like idk man anyone else in his position would just settle for mid because like he's already in f1 and has sponsors left and right and he is living the life but he cares so fucking much and wants nothing but to win and be at the top always and at the front every weekend and if it doesn't happen then he will make sure it will be different in the future and all he wants is to win and ferrari and a wdc and then another wdc and then another and another all whilst being in ferrari and winning in ferrari

i am presented with two ppl + one option. one appears to like me very much and we have great chemistry and they're witty and ambitious and studious and have similar goals in life and they write beautiful poetry about politics and people and they seem very kind and want to make a difference in the world. they text me to make sure i've had a good day. the other one is none of those things but they are so hot and evil and also they don't like me even a little bit and i've told them that i genuinely wanted to kill them, a lot. i'd give everything and anything for one of them and not the other

I consistently say that I'm not sure whether I like medieval studies, and yet when I'm doing an assignment I often end up focussing on something medieval. I just took ELEVEN BOOKS from the shelf on the Gawain poet because apparently I'm a nerd
