the most difficult thing about growing as a person socially, as in getting out of your shell and noticing that you are, is that there will still be times when it doesn’t feel like you’ve grown at all! times when you can’t really connect with anyone around you, times when you fail to enter into an existing conversation, times when you say the wrong thing (or nothing at all when in hindsight you probably should’ve). but that’s also kind of the best thing, because that’s the thing that helps you realize that sometimes, it’s not you or your lack of skills or any shortcoming. sometimes certain environments just aren’t for you and certain people aren’t your people, and that’s okay. that’s human. it’s okay to not feel the progress you have made all the time.
#and that goes for every type of growth#backstory of this post:#after I came back after a few months of doing my international internship I felt so much more confident#it was easier making friends and walking up to people#i took more chances#and generally just heard it a lot from those around me who kept telling me how much i’d changed#this was further supported by my first office job that went pretty well#but then came my grad internship. and while i love the work and have met some great people I noticed it was difficult again#there was one office lunch where no one spoke to me at all! it was my first week and I didn’t know what to say#if i should even say anything#we were all sitting at the same table#not one person even glanced my way#it made me doubt myself; i was doing so well before#was that even real? why can’t I just speak up? this is not the way to connect with people#especially in my first week!#but you know what#i was still doing well. i just had to factor in the fact that these were all middle aged people talking about reality shows i didn’t watch#and bikes i knew nothing about#as well as people who knew i was the new intern yet didn’t speak to me at all even though I’d introduced myself to them all individually#and even so#people I couldn’t really talk to about MY interests outside of work either#my point being:#it’s okay to not feel a connection with everyone you meet#it’s okay to fall back into old habits even though you’ve developed new ones#it will never unravel the process you’ve made and the connections you’ve built#you’re doing fine#after this internship I will surround myself with people who reaffirm that belief#growth in the self#self love#positivity

sometimes I forget that my experience has been. um. not 'your experiences are not universal' vibes but more like 'your experiences are EXTREMELY atypical'
#red said#recent events have reminded me that my life has involved like. a LOT of other people's psychosis#like not in a way where i have been Beset By Terrifying Crazies bc that's not like. a thing.#but a lot of people in my life have had a lot of really severe psychotic episodes#and i FORGET sometimes. that actually that is an Unusual Amount Of Experience With Psychosis for someone who's not#for somebody who has not really personally ever had psychotic episodes (unless severe PTSD flashbacks count)#actually i tell a lie i have maybe had One psychotic episode but because it was very situational and i knew what was happening#i was able to ride it out. because i am literally only psychotic Inside Hospitals and so that's all fine#as long as i LITERALLY NEVER HAVE TO HAVE INPATIENT CARE. Very important to me to never ever ever require surgery i think.#i can handle the amount of psychosis i get from a 1-4 hour stopoff in hospital#as long as i know I'm leaving soon then i can just Cope with the fact that the walls are moving and reality is thin#ANYWAY that's not the point the point is i forget! that most ppl i know have experience of at most a handful of severe psychotic episodes#some people i know have experienced more for sure. especially if the episodes were mostly theirs.#but people really seem to expect me to be more freaked out by their symptoms of psychosis than i am#bc i don't think i really register it as frightening unless they're in actual danger or Currently Aggressing Actually At Me#like i WORRY about them bc it can super suck but it's not SHOCKING or WEIRD#there have definitely been times ive been frightened. one time i woke up in the night and my friend was standing over me with a knife#but also like he was still HIM he was just having a moment. and as soon as i got the knife off him he just came back and broke down.#and we were fine and he was safe and i learnt the valuable lesson that even when people seem like they wanna kill you they probably don't#tbf now I'm thinking about it it's honestly a tossup whether he was there to threaten or because he felt a need to guard us#like to be clear probably don't try and take a knife off someone having a psychotic break. i was 17 and it was 3am and i knew him very well#i probably did not make the smartest call but nobody got hurt is the point#anyway you know there's that kind of psychotic episode and my granny got very violently angry a few times. buuuut you know there's also#been plenty of other times I've been with somebody having an episode and it's been chill as hell.#my ex saw and heard monsters so much that eventually she just got sick of being scared. we used to watch TV with them#i would sometimes have to sit on a bit of sofa that wasn't haunted and we might not be able to watch certain things bc they didn't like it#most of the time she was hallucinating there was absolutely nothing to worry about we just had a few extra variables#honestly of everyone i know who's had psychotic episodes or schizophrenia the amount of times it's been a material risk#is like. low single figures? maybe low double if you include self harm but idk what the cause and effect is there.#idk why you would need to be frightened like 99.99% of the time it truly is usually just Oh No That Seems Distressing For You I'm Sorry

on the topic of eyes, one of my headcanons(?) for anya is that she has really big eyes. I mean just massive round pupils. Very much like Donovan and Demetrius but without the strain of exhaustion and soullessness. Her eyes specifically look a bit like Ella Purnell like she's a real starer when she's ready.
and it is very important to her character. One it makes her look young (even as an adult), with a sort of doe like innocence. Keeps her un-intimidating and very trust worthy. But it also makes her look rather creepy, as if she is constantly looking right into your soul. the kind of eyes you cant lie to because one they look so innocent but also so knowing.
i think it would represent her character very well because she is all knowing but people don't know that so it's just kinda creepy. Also think it makes like her fresh out of the 70s giving shelly duval realness.
#spy x family#sxf#anya forger#headcanon#I had a wip about Anya in the future as a spy but no one knew nor suspected anything bc they just saw her as the same ole Anya#she left Eden as a child and came back to Ostania as an adult#Becky specifically was convinced Anya hadn’t changed bc in their correspondence anya talked about the same stuff and her language never#really matured in a way and Becky found herself dumbing done her words to make it relatable to Anya#in reality Anya had very much matured and was doing the same thing with Becky#a big part of why everyone was convinced Anya was the same childish clueless girl was because she had a baby face#round head chubby cheeks big brown eyes and a slight pout that just made her look like a little kid even though she was 21#but of course she used to her advantage making everyone let their guard down around her and treat as they would an actual child#which in the end aided her in her mission because they would tell her exactly what she needed to hear lmao

Finally getting around to Romancing the Skyrim custom voiced follower Gore. He's a delight. I love his story. Now here are a million screenshots I took while playing with him (and my Dragonborn who's romancing him, Kei)
#Skyrim#Gore CVF#Gore Skyrim#Gore Custom Follower Skyrim#Skyrim Custom Follower#Skyrim Custom Voiced Follower#Skyrim CVF#The last one happened during my start of playing through Vigilant. Smooches of Skyrim proc'd and Gore pulled Kei into a kiss as we walked i#I'm so scared of breaking him during Vigilant 😭#Kei is a High Elf who very much despises the Thalmor#He started out indifferent to them until Elenwen insulted him in Helgen after he was captured for crossing the border#In reality he'd actually just been hunting and had crossed too far into Skyrim but because he'd been accidentally near where Ulfric...#and his Stormcloaks were found; he was falsely labeled a traitor and conspirator with the Stormcloaks#He doesn't care for the Stormcloaks as they didn't try to help him or deny that they knew him#So he's got a bone to pick with both factions#Kei has much more of a reason to hate the Thalmor when he falls in love with Gore#He saves Gore because he wishes someone had been there to save him when he'd been taken crossing the border#(well someone besides a rampaging dragon)#And offers the help and friendship he wishes he'd had during that ordeal#Gore proves to be such good company that he not only makes fast friends with Kei but also makes Kei fall in love with him quite quickly#I also did 'shop a lot of these screenshots: for some reason Photomode takes very dark screenshots even though I have vibrant ENB settings

Freij
Freije Known for their fringed ears, thick dark hair, and natural resistance the frigid temperatures of the north. Freije seals take on a white or pale-blue hue, contrasting against their dark skin. Typically asymmetrical and unique to each individual, they have been widely (and fittingly) remarked as resembling snowflakes and frost, consisting of radial pattern of crystal-like markings.
Matriar The military and naval prowess of Freij is recognized across Elothia, and its Matriar reflects that. As Leader and Admiral, She dons the military vestments of the region, although ornamented and embroidered to indicated Her regal station. She also carries on Her person, just as the officers under Her, a dagger and sabre. Typically these would be highly decorated commissioned works, much like Her chokha and kalpak. However the current Matriar has forgone the tradition, preferring to don and wield the standard arms of her men. As Impero recently saw a Patris leave the throne, Freij is likely to see one on theirs in the coming centuries as the current Matriar has only one son and seemingly no interest in bearing another child.
Czars State officials and Generals to Her Majesty. Much like the Matriar, Czars are outfitted in military garb and keep a dagger and sabre on their person. While still decorated to denote them as officers of import, it is not to the level of the Matriar.
Citizens Despite the high tolerance to the northern climate that they have become known for, Freije are born incredibly susceptible to the cold. Newborns are heavily swaddled in thick furs and kept indoors for the most of their first year. Even when younglings are finally able to be brought outdoors, they do so thoroughly bundled up, almost comically, in several layers of thick clothing and furs.
It's not until adolescense that the Freije's cold tolerance truly begin to build up. They begin to strip away their heavy coats, scarves and furs, and many, many, layers as the years proceed, and by their first century the typical Freije can brush off the low temperatures with far lighter apparel. To the outsider experiencing the bite of Freij's Spring chill for the first time, they may even look underdressed.
In opposition to this are the region's wealthier merchants, barons, and city officials. Setting themselves up at higher altitudes, far above the crowded docks and fish markets, even their natural resistance isn't quite enough to keep out the colder mountain winds. As a result, upper class Draken remain relatively bundled up well after maturing - a fact that's earned the ridicule of many common folk, thinking it make them look childish.
#Chronicles of Cassendenia#Matriar Lynorre Tark Freij#Johann Tark Freij#Baerg#Guardian Drake#Freije Drake#Elothian Drake#OC#CoC ref#MSPaint Draw#Next stop the Frost draken or as they shall now be known: the Freije#I lost the loving feeling i had with the gen naval officer look because it left me hung up on how to handle the citizenry#so this time around i took insp from Cossack uniforms and Ukrainian folk costumes and now we're cooking with gas#also real shit: not to sip to deeply of mine own cool-aid but#the Freije drake maybe the sickest thing i've ever designed and possibly ever will design#if it never gets better than this fucking Unit than i'll be AbSoLutely fine with that#it's like: humpback whale+walrus+galapagos iguana and i think i love it to death#the imperian i think is the easiest to draw for me but the freije - ughhh 😩💕#i always knew it had the potential to be cool as shit and i am finally a strong enough artist to make it a reality

Bleh
#I gotta rant n I don’t really have a place but here lol#but man is my past relationship weighing heavy on me today#(caveat of pls don’t be weird and make this his problem)#but I still just feel so lost over it#like obviously breaking up with no ill will is the ideal situation#but being forced to confront that someone you spent so much of your life growing with#can just decide they don’t like you like that anymore#like there was distance for a while before the breakup#that I don’t hold against him at all#but reflecting on the first several years of our relationship compared to the last 6months or so#feels like night and day#like you can go from someone being obsessed with you and you obsessed with them#enjoying all the parts of growing into adults together#to just feeling so unwanted bc the reality is they stopped wanting you a while ago#like going from telling friends my only holdup on polyamory was that I didn’t know if I could love another person as much as them#to having to bring to their attention that it wasn’t okay that I came to their family’s house n all he said was hi to me for the first hour#and then confronting that you didn’t do anything wrong#that shit just happens sometimes and neither of you knew how to navigate it#and fuck it makes me so scared for future relationships#because how can you not be scared when you can lose such intense love as the result of a few years passing#I almost wish it had been something I did :/#bc at least then I knew what to work on and mitigate going forward#but I can’t stop people just..#not liking me anymore

December 5th, 2023 VS. April 9th, 2024
We did not have the context for this image until the finale
Before it was a sweet and funny photo because how could anything go wrong, how could they not win? How could they, how could Light, ever really lose?
Their faces blacked out, scratched away in the stealing of souls....
The smile on the Soul Eater's face
"I am sorry, Phantasia," he says in sudden distress
But the message still stands among souls bodiless
#ruined reality#I am not ok#I am not ok at all#I am TR-affected#“It's so joever” - General Proxima (probably)#My brain wants to poem about everything in this finale#This photo makes me SIIIICKKKK.....#ITS ITS THE WAY THEIR FACES ARE JUST GONE#THR WAY YOU YOU#THEY#THR WAY THRY KNEW THEY HAD LOST IMMEDIATELY#Corrupt's machine.#COLLEEE'S machine#dude the#something about the “HAVE A GOOD *SOULSTICE*” is incredibly haunting#seriously haunting.#the way it's written#the all caps#the knowledge that the soulstice is nothing to be celebrated...

i still have so many questions about the ff7 remake story. why did aerith even have knowledge of the future in remake to begin with? from a watsonion perspective, why does she lose that knowledge after the end of remake when sephiroth doesn't? (i'm fully aware the doylist reason is that having a character who knows the future would totally break the plot but i'm still curious if there's more to what they were doing with aerith's remake character or if this is it). what was her motivation to encourage the party to fight the whispers in the original game when she knew the party would defeat sephiroth in the end if events followed fate? was it simply that she wanted the chance to live? because that makes me want to lie down and cry!!!!
#blahs#ff7#rebirth spoilers#sephiroth's whole “so must you” line to aerith about accepting her fate seems to imply he's saying she was resisting it#and that the aerith we see in cloud's dream reality is the aerith from remake with all her knowledge of the future#and her pushing cloud out of the dream is her accepting her death?#which makes me want to die!!!!!#it also seems implied by sephiroth that remake!aerith went and hid away in the alternate reality as a way to run from her fate??#idk i might have to go back and watch things again#but if so perhaps that answers my question about why aerith loses her future knowledge#i do dig it a lot bc i have always been a staunch Aerith Wanted To Live Believer#i dislike the interpretation that in og ff7 she knew she would die and it was a noble sacrifice. i think that diminishes the tragedy#so the idea that she actively resisted it when given the chance even if she eventually had to accept the reality of death makes me very !!!#like it breaks my heart but it's in line with my interpretation of her character#anyway. i'm vomiting all this to my tumblr audience of People Who Don't Care About FF7 bc my bestie's asleep so i can't talk to her about i#tumblrinas please play ff7 i promise it's so good it's some of my favourite character writing in a game ever for real

Thinking about Azula again...
#i need more people to understand her character and not just dismiss her as an evil person#a pawn or an emotionless husk#i need more people to understand that Ursa isnt a good parent#she married a monster and only realized her mistake after it was too late#once she had Zuko she finally had someone to pour her love into and to make her feel less isolated#so she coddled him and would spend all of her time with him#Ozai is a smart man im sure he noticed and figured out exactly why she was always preoccupied with Zuko which made him have a certain#disdain for his son which only grew as he got older and didnt meet his father's impossible standards#and then came Azula#her mother already had her perfect child so she didnt get as much attention from her#especially when she started showing certain characteristics that were reminiscent of her father#ursa was unnerved by Azula and her difficulty understanding certain things such as empathy#she was certain this child would grow up to be a monster like her father#so she never bothered trying to teach her to be better than him#which left her all to her father#who could groom her into the fire bending prodigy and brutal warrior that we knew in the show#he controlled her and manipulated her into being exactly what he wanted#a puppet and a weapon to be used as he saw fit#and when the curtains lifted ever so slightly from her eyes showing her the reality of her situation she broke#rambles#avatar the last airbender#princess azula

#So............... No Akutagawa#Little more to add. I can't wait to see where Dostoyevsky's backstory is going but there's still little to comment on#When they mentioned Rome I was like 👀👀👀👀👀#Time for my greatest fear to become reality? (Twinkified anime character Dante Alighieri)#I used to think “oh no I don't want Dostoyevsky to be immortal because then I won't be able to ship fyo/zai :((( ”#But now that it happened I'm very indifferent to it lol like.#Dating an immortal human (?) being won't make it even to the top ten weirdest things Dazai has done#It's interesting to see Dostoyevsky had a previous contact with Bram. I wouldn't have imagined they knew each other before.#And then they met again and Bram is a popsicle. Ahah. Dostoyevsky must have been like. Serves you right.#What else. The whole Fukuchi deal is... Eh#Teruko's whole role in this chapter is something of the most sexist thing the author could muster#But like. Okay. We are not talking about this I guess#random rambles

I never post, but just finished Loki s2e4 and.... what the hell?
Rant in the tags...
#loki spoilers#spoilers#like i can guess that this is leading up to some kind of TVA timeline branch#where they can get another shot at this#but everything was so choppy and scenes lacked progress or cosnequence#they were only exclamated by intense and disappointing gore or hopelessness#a real tough watch and tougher on suspending disbelief#and im nitpicking but it was only a 'magic dampener' that was keeping magic from being real in the TVA?#seems a little eh... like are infinity stones powerful now?#i had loved the idea of the TVA being a place without magic simply bc it was mysteriously separate from the rest of reality#anyways i just had to rant#old-man-yells-at-cloud style#im hoping that wasnt the end of Timely#i knew something bad was gonna happen to him when he had his cocoa#they only make characters do something that cute if theyre gonna suffer#im banking on next weeks ep being about going back on the TVAs timeline#the TVA used to be timeless but now that timeslipping is possible in the TVA i imagine that meand the TVA is now a part of 'time'#just kinda disappointed in the writing for this episode#but most marvel shows tend to have a episode 3-5 dip in quality for some reason#oh well

2 years ago i fucked up a friendship w a girl (that im pretty sure i was in love with). to this day i think of her and sometimes when i see her on the street i just wanna cry. i understand your plight very much.
yeahhh man im sorry to hear that!!! it genuinely fucking sucks and i would never wish this upon anyone. cuz like it makes you fully think about all the what ifs and i genuilnely dont think ill ever find someone like her again
#im not trying to sound dramatic im being so serious she was so fucking perfect for me#i geuss the difference is shes the one who broke up w me and i know i didnt do anything wrong#neither of us did#its just like fuck!!! you know?? like we could have been so much#serious relationships dont need to be longterm to be serious you know???#one of these days im going to get tipsy and then 'drunk' text her even though i fiully intend to text her#and then claim i was just drunk because im notl ying im just not telling the full truth#like i fully considered it last night but i knew it would be a bad idea and i know if i do it its just gonna fuck things up more#but im soooo tempted man#like i dont know what itll even do#i know inside my goal is to maybe convince her that its not our time to end but i know in reality#its just gonna make her feel guilty and push her away even more if i show her how much ic are abou ther#i just seriously wish i understood why she even did it#i also thought being back on campus would help and i mean it has for sure becuase ive had my friends to distract me#but the thing is im not enjoying anything. like im not being distracted im just being numbed ykwim#cuz the moment i leave my friends all i do is think about her#and even when im WITH my friends ill be in the moment w them and then 2 minutes later ill start zoning out thinking about her#like the worst part about this is i dont have any anger *against* her#maybe im angry about like the general situation but the anger isnt against her#and while being angry is its own kind of pain in a way it can be easier cuz at least then youre tempted to have a good time and show off#but when its like this where youre just sad at the situation like what am i actually gonna do except think about her#sorry anon im not trying to dump on you i just start ranting in the tags sometimes#sunny rambles#anon tag#asks
