#im emotional this morning

[yamsgarden]

Maybe I mentionned it in the past, but Okami has such an important place in my heart T_T and one of my best friend just got me this wonderful figurine for my birthday... And just omg-- I couldn't help but take a quick photoshoot of it T0T

they are the sun and moon. they are a solar eclipse. the red and the blue. the shadow cast along the wall and the sunbeam from a half-open window. the fuckign intj and enfp goddamn it. stark monochrome constrasting to bright and soft secondaries. they both have scarves. the fear of changing and growing old vs the fear of stagnating and being stuck in time. i am collapsing into a puddle. 'i will kill for you, please let me kill for you' vs 'show mercy for me, stay your hand for me'. Neither have regrets for their actions but they do regret the results those actions have. both are inherent forces of nature. hikari is an earthquake that tears and heaves the foundations, who's anger rattles everyone and everything, where the only option is to take cover and pray to god the fallout doesn't reach you. straizo is a tsunami, a typhoon, where the tide recedes and the wind whips and you think you're safe until the wall of water comes crashing down around you and crushes you under its weight. does anyone hear me

heads up! food + college theatre au (reader is assistant director)

seokmin is gentle when he shakes your shoulder a little, just enough to get you to look up from the notes you're transcribing. he's already out of costume (although you know he'll be back in it for the actual dress rehearsal soon), but he still looks radiant as ever. "aren't you going to come eat?"

you shake your head. director yoon ordered pizzas for everyone tonight, not thinking twice when he passes his notes onto you with the request that you transcribe them when you had the chance. and since you need to be taking notes during dress rehearsal... "i don't want to get any grease on jeonghan's notes."

seokmin looks down at the papers, and then nods. "okay... but have you eaten today?"

"no." you pause, and then realize how that sounds. "i ate breakfast," you quickly clarify, "and i'll order something when i go home tonight. please," you vaguely gesture toward the lobby where the others are all eating, "you don't need to worry about me."

he nods, and he leaves you after lingering around for a few seconds.

and then five minutes later, he's back. he's carrying two plates of pizza with two cans of soda tucked underneath his arms, holding two bendy-straws sideways in his mouth. he sets one at the other end of the table you're working at, and then one of the cans down. he's already saying that he knows what you like from the last late night you all had for this show, pizza being the default option then too. the can cracks open, and seokmin pushes a straw into it before he sits next to you.

then he holds up a slice of pizza for you, careful to keep it over the plate. "here," he says. "don't worry about getting your hands greasy."

you look at him, your cheeks warming up at the gesture. with a quiet thanks, you lean forward, taking a bite. and that's how you end up eating a slice (two, actually--the lack of lunch hit you quick, and seokmin ran back to get another slice for you): with seokmin holding it for you, careful not to make a mess. he eats his own pizza afterward, watching as you continue to work.

"you work so hard for us," he says after a moment. "we're really lucky to have you here."

you chuckle. "jeonghan would have found someone else to help direct."

"it wouldn't have been the same," he has this genuine look in his eyes as he leans forward a little, just to get a better look at you. "thank you for working so hard for us." he reaches out, squeezing your knee once before drawing his hand away again. "i'll work harder so you can be proud of me, too."

i dont think we talk enough about john bridgens and henry peglar. just like in general. and that is a crime

[i-aint-even-bovvered]

I would like to talk to Jewish converts for a second.

I wonder if you know how amazing you are? How amazing you are to me, specifically?

I was born into this. You chose us. You didn't have to. I don't know if I would have chosen this. I do identify strongly with my religion and culture. I love being Jewish. I am proud to be Jewish. But would I feel that way if I wasn't brought up to be Jewish? I don't know. It's a question I've had many times before.

If you are not born Jewish and decide that is who you want to be, you already probably know enough to know about the pervasiveness of antisemitism. You know how the world sees us. But you decided that mattered less to you than the love you had for us and your desire to be part of our family. You didn't have to do that. We specifically put roadblocks in the conversion process so you absolutely, 100% understand what you are getting yourself into, and no one would judge you if you changed your mind.

When we talk about conversion liturgically, we often talk about the story of Ruth, calling her "the first convert." She says to Naomi, "Your people will be my people." I always read that and believed that Ruth and Naomi were at least a little bit in love. How could you not be, with such a declaration?

That is how I feel about Jewish converts.

Where you die, I will die. And there shall I be buried.

i finally finished campaign 3 of critical role and it's got me all emotional, and not just because of the contents of the finale

i started listening to bells hells in what I believe to be late spring/early summer of 2022. i was graduating college, working a part time job that i didn't love, but working with people that i loved.

since i was listening to the campaign on pretty much all my commutes, it was also with me when I started my first big kid job later in that year and moved away. through the hardships of adapting, incredible homesickness and loneliness (turns out when you work with your best friends everyday it feels bad when you move an hour away from them), and health issues worsening with the stress of being a whole person, my little commute routine stayed the same

i kind of adjusted to all that to a degree,and later when i went back to one of my younger dreams of ballet, i was using all my driving time to and from venues to stay caught up during nutcracker season

idk man things in life were changing so quickly for a while there, it was wonderful to have something that stayed the same with characters that i could relate to in some ways :,)
