#i made it less tragic

So we all like the “if you die then I’ll burn down the world” trope but there’s something so powerful and beautiful about living on with their memory instead. It’s not “because you’re dead the world has nothing worth saving in it” but “everyday something in this world reminds me of you and I’m glad for it even if it hurts”.
It’s “I’ll bring your kindness with me wherever I go and someone will remember it even if they’ll never know I borrowed it from you.”
It’s “This is what you would do.”
It’s “I’ll remember you for you and not for what the people hail you as.”
And it’s so painfully beautiful.
#sousou no frieren#I started watching Frieren and even though the story isn’t romantic I was reminded of Lan Wangji while Wei Wuxian was dead#but made less tragic because at least Himmel was remembered for his good deeds while Wei Wuxian was vilified#mdzs#lan wangji#grief#dealing with grief

By the way I’ve had this “mha definitely doesn’t have that much planning in long-term and horikoshi just makes it up as he goes, and that creates contradictory story beats like… all the issues with the ‘saving’ villains plot” idea of a post in my head for YEARS PLURAL and um. Does. Does now seem like a good time to write it?
#even if shigaraki lives my point still stands#(ramble in tags. keep in mind I haven’t been reading this in a long time so I’m not entirely caught up)#because let’s be honest here. if the story hadn’t been so confusing about what it wanted to do to the lov there’d be less controversy#around all this. like it feels the story has written itself into a corner with the lov#like it seems horikoshi wanted the cool and tragic villains who ultimately are defeated by the heroes who surpass them#like unlike you who use your pain to hurt others I will use it to help them etc etc#but ALSO made the lov representative of the victims and outcasts of hero society so#saving them would represent surpassing those issues— yknow. contradicting the whole killing them idea#yet he chooses to try doing both instead of picking one of those options and sticking to it#so he ends up failing in both#bnha critical#<- I have to tag this as SMTH after this long ass ramble#boku no hero#mha

okay pause on phone people posting to do some Rhinedottir Posting ™
I think that while all of the Five Sinners are generally around the same level of unhingement and gray morality, Rhinedottir was just Like That even before taking a dunk in the Eldritch and Forbidden. I think it's kinda funny.
"That's Surtalogi, he basically invented lycanthropy and has a pet multidimensional narwhal that eats French people, that obelisk over there is Vedrfolnir, the single greatest visionary to kinda-live, capable of restoring sentience to the cursed, and the lady over there is Rhinedottir, a revolutionary alchemist and she, uh... Yeah these days she's mostly printing flying dismembered dogs. No idea why. She's not even taking care of them, or of any other thing she ever made for that matter. Yeah, she made a bunch of her clones and dumped most of them into a vat of acid. No idea why, something about them not being good enough. Oh yeah no, that was before our country was nuked. I don't know what's her deal and honestly at this point I'd keep it that way. Anyways, that guy over there is Rerir and he uhhhhhhh-"
#rhine rambling tag#genshin impact#genshin#rhinedottir#i think she deserves the assigned unhinged at birth privileges#both as a woman in stem and the only woman in a group of “the best of the best in their respective fields” consisting mostly of men (joking)#granted i do think she's more complex than “get that fetus kill that fetus x999” but at the same time.#a female villain who isn't manipulated misunderstood or with a tragic backstory meant to make her more sympathetic/less threatening#is a nice change of pace.#we already had that in genshin with signora ei and arlecchino as they all had some kind of Trauma backing up their actions to a degree.#so for rhinedottir i think it'd be interesting if she just made all those choices on her own - without being pushed by trauma of any kind.#simply knowing what she wanted - willing to do anything to get it. ... whatever that something is.#a fully self made woman - from her achievements in academics and social status to all that comes with trading your morals for a goal.#that way there's Agency in her awfulness#yknow what i mean

Dawg i hate mouthwashinhg fandom so much now, the analysis now is just so reductive ☹️☹️☹️☹️
#ignorelist#stop reccomending me analysis that doesnt want to acknowledge the grey part of the story#yes curly fucked up in handling his rapist friend#but that doesn’t erase the fact that he’s a captain literally trying his best#curly posisition were in so much pressure he has to deal with becoming the best captain he can ever be#when anya told him jimmy sa’d her#of course he would handle it bad#he constantly ‘tries’ to help anya by trying to fix jimmie or some sort#but of course keep in mind the way he ‘helped’ anya literally sucks ass#he shouldve confronted and punished jimmy heads on#but he didnt because thats his best friend#and to add to the stress factor they are in a literal space#what am trying to say is the way curly handled anya is less than good and he fucked up#but when you look at the bigger picture he isnt some cunniving asshole that purposely enable his friend#and im not saying hes not responsible for how bad the situation with jimmy became#as a captain he poorly handled his employees and as a friend he failed to help anya#likeeee please 😭😭😭😭 i just do not want the complexity of cptn curly to be reduced#thats what made me love mthwashing in the first place#every each of the character is so layer of goodness like please dont take that away#curly is such a tragic character

Sketchy art of Vio (@mountainashfae) and clingy menace Balthazar: some new, some old (last June old). I'm actually really surprised that the older one, which was something of a sequel to one of these, never made it here.
#I tragically cannot take a less blurry picture of the first one because that is from right before I messed up the colors in my sketchbook#vio miette#balthazar lucienne#emi art#match made in hell#digging out the posts that were scheduled for later this week since I'm here right now#haven't finished formatting the first art fight compilation or I'd post it. later this week I'm sure

In another life
I wish I wouldn't have met you
In another life
I wouldn't have know you
In another life
I wouldn't have fell for you
Atlast this is not another life
This is the life I met you
This is the life I fell for you
But this is the life you didn't fall for me
This is the life you loved someone else than me
This is the life you forgot about me
And just like you the world too has forgotten me
Except the bright flowers who are like you
Carrying the story of me
In another life
You'd have met me first
In another life
You would have loved me first.
In Greek mythology, the sunflower is often associated with the myth of Clytie and Helios. Clytie was a water nymph, and deeply in love with the sun god Helios. Sadly, he left her for another goddess, and it’s said that Clytie watched Helios crossing the sky in his golden chariot for days, without any food or water. Eventually, she was transformed into a sunflower, and it’s said this is why sunflowers always face the sun.
#wrote a poem for my favourite myth#I always loved sunflowers this story made me love them even more#who would have thought the happiest looking flower would have this tragic story#nothing less love sunflower and this myth#also fun fact sunflowers are often offered to goddess Saraswati since yellow is her favourite colour#desiblr#sunflowers 🌻#greek mythology#myth of Helios and Clytie#in some version of this story it's said to be Apollo instead of Helios

So my brother and I have a sort of HTTYD World War II AU (it’s mainly our original characters, but Hiccup, Tuffnut, and Skulder are in there), and I just had to share a snippet we came up with tonight; we made the comment of how Hiccup and the Joneses wouldn’t smoke, but Stoick would, and Gobber? Well, he’d smoke like a fiend! He’d never be seen without a cigarette in his mouth:
Hiccup one day (sometime after the war ended), staring at Gobber:
Gobber: “What?”
Hiccup: “… how do you still have teeth? And lungs?”
Gobber: “Smokin’s good for the lungs! You know what I say: a pack a day keeps the doctor away!”
Hiccup, scoffing: “More like a pack a day calls the doctor…”
Gobber: “Oh, you’ve been spending too much time around those Jones boys.”
Stoick: “Their uncle was always the same way. Why, in the Great War-“
Hiccup, softly: “World War I…”
Stoick: “GREAT WAR, we were in the trenches one day, and every time I broke out a smoke, I’d feel his eyes on me. And sure enough, I look over and there he is. Staring at me, and I say ah! What’s it to you? And he says ‘you keep smoking them and it ain’t gonna be Germans that kill ya.’ So I told him it’s gonna be ripe old age! You know what he did? *clutches his chest and gasps* and then says ‘gonna be them smokes!”
#I might write up some oneshots for this AU. I don’t have the commitment to write a whole story#but oneshots? Ohhh yeaaahhh#so Hiccup and Skulder are plane mechanics. If you’ve seen Masters of the Air Hiccup has the same job as Kenny Lemmons#Piglard (one of the Jones boys; if you’ve read Journey to the Archipelago you know him) is a pilot; Major Colby Jones#his older brother Norbutt is a captain in the army; Captain Egan Jones#Piglard and Norbutt both have tragic stories#Piglard’s main crew manages to survive the war; but he lost his first ball turret gunner on one of his first few missions#he felt guilty that he couldn’t save him#then in 1943 his plane is shot down on his last mission before his two week leave to visit his due-any-day pregnant wife#where he’s captured and placed in a POW camp; so he misses the birth and first two years of his first daughter’s life🥺#(but he later escapes with Gale🤭)#as for Norbutt… well… let’s just say that he was in The Battle of the Bulge…#and their uncle is Norbert Jones (Norbert the Nutjob from the books; we’ve kinda made him a lot less nutty though😂😂)#random#writing#Michaiah’s Headcanons#how to train your dragon#httyd#hiccup haddock#stoick the vast#gobber the belch#httyd gobber#Michaiah’s Writing Thoughts

The thing about relating too much to Juri is it can and will make you a Shiori apologist
#genuinely on my first watch I related to juri the most#Which made everyone going 'oh she's the coolest character shes so tragic and hard to understand' just... not make sense to me#Like. What do you mean. Her thought processes are SO obvious and how she acts makes exact sense and is also extremely frustrating#Now Shiori on the other hand... 💔💔💔💔💔#revolutionary girl utena#juri arisugawa#(I relate to Juri less now that I'm older than when I first watched the show.#But watching it as a 17 y/o taking years to get over a traumatizing middle school crush was. Well. Not fun to look back on)

I don't like pure evil Gasters
I don’t like pure evil Gasters.
Or rather, I don’t like Gasters who get treated like they’re (pure) evil.
If Gaster is anything like any other character in both Undertale and Deltarune, he won’t be pure evil. His ‘evil’ will most likely come from pain, if all the pain mentions have anything to say about it.
Basically, If Spamton and Jevil can be forgiven (and become fan favorites) because their evil was from a source of pain…
Then why would Gaster be any different.
Why should we assume and treat Gaster like he’s pure evil, and thus, claim he deserves the pain…
When we treat nobody else like that.
Sure, there is the spade king, but the worst thing that happened to him was that he was thrown in a cell.
A far cry from being thrown into (metaphorical) hell, as so many people headcanon happened to Gaster.
Nobody in Undertale or Deltarune deserves their pain, it’s one of the core traits of these games. So why should Gaster be the sole exception.
If the vilification of Chara can result in an entire defence squad protesting, then why does nobody care that Gaster gets treated like a scapegoat as well?
I think it’s because we see so little of Gaster, plus his portrayal as devilish and creepy, makes people just. Not sympathise with him.
And I find that so unrelatable, as someone who felt really bad for Gaster ever since I discovered Goner Kid.
Which heightened the more fanfiction I read.
Other people hate Gaster because of their personal headcanons, which would be fine, except for the fact that AUs like Handplates and Underverse became so popular, that Hateable Gasters became so common, that it’s both very difficult to avoid…
And that there’s barely any variation.
The only Gaster headcanons that are popular are Dadster, which is usually good, sometimes neutral, rarely evil, and Badster, which always gets treated like evil no matter how nuanced he gets made (and people think the only way he can redeem himself is to be a dadster)...
And ships, more specifically Grillster (which is pure fanon), Kingdings (which makes more sense than Grillster at least) and Sanster, which gets called incest by dadster fans who can’t stand people have different headcanons than themselves.
And guess what? That's not much. If you just so happen to have completely different Gaster headcanons than any of these, including ones that are actually based on canon rather than preference…
Well, then you’re screwed in the content department, so that your only option is to look for niche content, blocking an endless stream of popular content just to get to it…
Or to write your own stories (assuming you can).
Now, I clearly don’t speak for most people here. In fact, I'm speaking about my own experiences here.
Remember the theory that Sans and Papyrus are pieces of Gaster? Or the theory that Papyrus is Gaster? Or even that Sans is Gaster?
Those theories never got popular.
People say it's because they think it's unlikely, but i suspect it's really because not many people just. Liked the idea that Sans and Papyrus could be one person we know nothing about that might be potentially evil.
In a similar fashion, I don’t think dadster and badster got popular because they are ‘likely to be true’ (which I heavily disagree with), but because most fans prefer some mundane dad whose entire character is determined with how he treats Sans, and to a lesser extend, Papyrus, over the Yume Nikki inspired eldritch man that Gaster most likely is in canon.
Which I personally think is really boring!
And if canon has anything to say about it, if Gaster turns out to be the father, he will be anything but mundane and he’ll actually have a characterization that isn’t centered around the fan favourite.
#Gaster#rant#maybe#Personal#just would be nice if more people made him less one dimensional and hateable and more nuanced and tragic#I don't want to hate my favorite character
