With people watching bluey, I wonder how the kaiba bros would react. I know Seto would be calling it childish and not want to watch it at all. Mokuba would have to be the one to convince him to watch it. I feel like they would cry. Not like shed a few tears cry but like bawling and crying so hard they throw up. It doesn't even have to be one of those hard hitting episodes. Just something showing them playing and having a normal childhood. idk they just have a lot of trauma to unpack.

dont get me started on my favorite book

Fuck uhh ok i guess my favorite is ‘ill give you the sun’ by jandy nelson so ill go with that!!

Spoilers 4 that book below (not under a cut bc im a mobile bitch sorry)

Ok so it follows two siblings and theyre originally suuuuper super close like mega close and its great. One is noah who is good at art and a little closested and jude, whose the free spirit girl with a lot of friends and theyre fuckin weird i love it. Noah is INCREDIBLE at art and wants so badly to go into art school so they do a competition between siblings (the details get fuzzy here idk why they do this competition) and the mom so obviously chooses noah and it makes jude feel pretty bad and eventually ignored once their mom focuses all her energy on how incredible noahs art is. There comes a divide between the mother and daughter and then something happens? I honestly cant remember but the mother dies in a car crash and it basically reverses their roles. First before that, jude throws away noahs acceptance papers for the good art school he got into and now only jude is going. This all ends up basically reversing their roles and now judes the eccentric art kid whos being haunted by their INCREDIBLY eccentric dead grandmother and jude follows her grandmothers bible to a T throughout her chapters. Noh becomes attatched to their boring dad whos like the epitome of high school white guy who was popular and vaguely jock like but i think he also studies molds and spores but i dont remember.

The story ends happy and the plot is basically to bring their mother peace bc judes also sort of haunted hy her mom but in a bad way bc shes contanyly breaking judes pottery. Jude thinks that if she carves out these angel statues that shes been obsessed with drawing since she was little, then maybe her mom will leave her alone. She goes to this old world weary carver and falls in love with carving and learns lots of things about herself and her family and falls in love with his assistant too. She gets their family back together again in the end and its super awesome. The chapters are split up by sibling starting with noah in the past and jude in the present

The writing of this story is beautiful and the way nelson has noah see the world as an artist is extrordinary and clever and very very creative and the little details of this book are amazing. It feels like poetry when you read it and the twists and turns are amazing. I could quote probably any part of that book and itll sound perfect. This book made me cry but its not super sad. Please read it and talk to me about it maybe itll spur me into rereading it myself lol

Heres a quote:

‘Meeting your soul mate is like walking into a house you've been in before - you will recognize the furniture, the pictures on the wall, the books on the shelves, the contents of drawers: You could find your way around in the dark if you had to.’

Do Aterni have ethnicities?

yep! for instance, Azrian’s creator Orneera has Brazilian features and every creation of hers (creations are souls withdrawn by creators and, later on, firstmades from the US’ soul and placed into bodies built by the creation) has Latinx features (as creations are able to design their own bodies to their own personal preferences, it varies). by comparison, Riph’s creator Isellah has Dutch features and her creations have Western European features (Isellah and her creations are also the only white Aterni)

oh, and none of them have human names, as should be evident with these four names i mention
