#it's sadder this way

When Aaravos mentions the Garden of Innocence, it's familiar to Claudia.
At the end of the graphic novel The Puzzle House, Claudia gets a map that leads her there. Back in S3, we see Viren casting a powerful spell with what turns out to be Claudia's prize from her visit to that Garden.
When Claudia tricks Terry into taking her back there, she has guilt for not telling him everything.
It sounds like she didn't tell her dad, either.
The slow assembly of lore about Claudia and the unicorn has finally reached its conclusion: she didn't kill it, or even capture it. It was already dead.
#tdp spoilers#tdp lore#claudia#tdp unicorns#it's sadder this way#and a different flavor of angst#there was never any chance of seeing a real unicorn after all#they were already gone

Simon petrikov coping FAIL compilation
#HNNNGGGNNN!! SO MANY THOUGHTS ABOUT EPISODE 2……#my art#adventure time#fionna and cake#simon petrikov#Fionna and cake spoilers#<- kind of??? maybe not really#I’m so glad ep 2 gave us some insight to that scene in obsidian#it’s such a shift from Simon saying he’d literally rather DIE than be the ice king again#BUT IT MAKES SENSE!#nostalgia can twist your perception of the past#and then mix that in with a metric ton of trauma !#‘things were simpler back then’#SIMON 99.5% OF YOUR LIFE AS ICE KING WAS AWFUL….#I mean in the later seasons he does gradually gain acceptance and fit in with the others#but that just makes the CURRENT simons situation so much sadder it’s like he’s back at square 1 in some ways#WILL THE ISOLATION EVER END?#OK IM DONE RANTING IN THE TAGS

toon beetlejuice left a long lasting positive impact on lydia despite leaving her alone for 30 years
and the exact opposite happened with movie bj and lydia
#beetleposting#i've been thinking a lot about the parallels between my comic and BJBJ#most was invoked on purpose but some of it is just...the way it is#and the more i think about it the sadder i feel for movie lyds

How about Floyd, who came back as promised, hugging little Branch who just saw Grandma Rosiepuff get taken/eaten by the Bergen Chef?
Or how about Floyd, who came back as promised only to find the Troll Tree devoid of life and Rosiepuff's pod empty, going grey as he mourns baby Branch whom he thinks got eaten?
Hey so! Totally fun (and not hurtful at all) fact-!
For Trolls Band Together, the story the writers wanted to go with (according to the Artbook and novelization), implies that Brozone's disbandment happens before Bergen Town is even a thing, which has such severe implications to me.
so.
tfw you return to your home to find that
actually, the forest that sheltered you is eradicated, replaced with a giant town whose occupants' sole form of joy consists of devouring you.
the tree that served as your home is the only thing left of that forest, and it is decayed, withered, and desiccated... displayed in the middle of the town in a cage.
your pod, your home, is empty. every home around it is empty too. there are no trolls in sight.
as far as you know, everyone that used to be here is gone. or dead. most likely dead.
you will never see them ever again.
you were just a teenager.
#trolls#floyd#meadow-hearthfire#sandflakedrew#asks#u can pry this from my cold dead fingers#this is canon .. to Me specifically#because i'm a sucker for something that makes a thing Both Better And Also Sadder#in addition#the way i've been reconciling the general timeline is like so:#1. There was the Inciting Bergen-Ate-A-Troll Incident however many years ago - which fractured the pop trolls into smaller communities#2. The Bergens had indeed been eating pop trolls for generations complete with Trollstice#HOWEVER.#That had been amongst a moving Bergen settlement and those various pop troll populations#(<those groups have been eaten to extinction)#3. Therefore - Bergens were things our specific group of trolls were aware of at large - but one they had not yet experienced#4. It culminates with Bergen Town being the recent Settlement and the luck of Peppy's group running out.

I can teach you how to be just like me
crying all night, sleeping till three
#did I mention that she’s really sad when she isnt trying to forget the unbearable boredom of being immortal#I heard this song to an animatic and I thought it really suited her so I added it to her playlist lol#I normally draw her in fun bright colors but a lot of the sadder parts of her story get pushed to the side#even if none of my oc stories are really fleshed out I know she has an insatiable nature. her star motif is loosely tied to this I think?#ungrounded and instead of ambitious she can just never find contentness with what she likes or what shes doing#she can definitely be happy though!!! but it always feels fleeting that shes scared the rest of her life is gonna be spent chasing highs#which is way less exciting when u think abt how long you’re gonna be around before everything loses its excitement#what tuck everlasting does to a mf#I think this also kinda bleeds into her relationships and tries to keep her distance so she doesnt get tired of someone she actually likes#it can be confusing since she can be really cuddly utterly in love one second and then kind of distant the next. but she still loves you#her brother I think is on the other end of the spectrum where he tries to live in the moment to avoid thinking abt the future#the avoidance siblings#my oc#oc#Augusta#doodles#my art#myart

doctor who will bring david tennant in just so he can scream and cry and be the saddest most pathetic man you've ever seen and then die. and it slaps every time
#rewatching and I'm on 10s seasons while this is airing is an insane combo#like the way it literally never gets easier. he only ever gets more and more sad and then he dies. like hello ?#and now he's come back and he's spent half the screentime being sad and he will only get sadder and then he'll die AGAIN#ideal character. put that man inthe meat grinder#doctor who#dw lb#david tennant

Diluc headcanon, he has frostbite scars on the back of his arms from his fight with Kaeya. When he almost killed Kaeya and Kaeya got his vision it's likely he blasted out his shield naturally, and I like to think of that as the result, like diluc put his arms up in an X to block in return.
#hoyoverse#ragbros#also makes kaeya's 'dont get frostbite' way sadder lol#genshin impact#genshin#diluc#diluc ragnvindr#kaeya#kaeya alberich#headcanon#genshin headcanons#diluc headcanons

house, md s05e14: “the greater good”
#hilson#house md#gregory house#james wilson#housemdedit#tvgifs#gilles gifs#i think what gets me about this particular scene in this particular episode#is that a lot of the episode is about romantic relationships between characters on the show - you see taub and his wife in bed#as well as thirteen and foreman#and in a way this scene feels like hilson's answer to that type of relationship and on screen depiction in this episode#and it makes wilson in amber's kitchen only sadder :(#if they weren't so repressed they could have fit in perfectly in the montage of lovers sharing a bed#but no they are dysfunctional like that

josh washington mementos/headcanons/etc
- a baseball cap from the first baseball game his dad took him to as a little boy
- would often beg hannah and beth to come to his games and to play with him in the summer ( + he was very involved in their lives and was the type to show up at parent teacher conferences because it annoyed them lol)
- dvd collections of his favorite movies (mostly horror /his dads films + he has a couple barbie movies because han made him watch them when he was younger)
- chris got him into video games in elementary school but josh eventually found his niche to be ambient horror games
- a sketch of a forest sam was going to throw away but josh couldn’t believe she considered it “bad” and kept it (+ a sketch of him)
- i think the color scheme of his clothing/room is gray, dark blue, umber, evergreen
- a stack of notebooks with storyboard drafts, doodles, prop designs
(he’s never shared them bc he doesn’t think they’re good enough and would rather a have “real” career than indulge in his silly producer dreams hence why he opts to take psychology in college + he thinks it will help him understand himself better since therapy/his healthcare provider have failed him)
- i think he takes halloween so seriously (probably prompts the group to do group costumes) and has a collection of costumes that have amounted over the years that he designed himself. i think it’s one of the earlier manifestations of his love for prop/costume design that he can embrace without feeling self conscious
- matching christmas socks that emily & jess bought for all the guys
- obviously a prankster so he has a bunch of those little toys from when he was younger like the gum that zaps your finger, fake insects, candles that don’t blow out etc
- a crocheted bear that beth made him that he always keeps on his bed
- i think he loves snowboarding (often drags chris to go with him) and has his own gear that he intentionally picked out
- a photo album his mom gave him several years ago of him and his sisters growing up. he forgot about it until he found it at the back of his closet after the twins died :(
- he is so good at deflecting and can mask his emotions very well (i think there can be some wonderful symbolism in josh’s love for costume/mask design and his ability to mask his true feelings to play a part in someone’s story)
- his mom became reserved after the death of the twins. she used to be beloved by the group but with conflicting grief/guilt/and sympathy everyone feels, she stops talking to them. i think josh’s dad blames him to an extent if only subconsciously (bc josh was drunk & passed out + he’s the oldest and was “responsible” for things going smoothly) but it bubbles to the surface when they argue. josh doesn’t like coming to his dad about his mental health bc he minimizes it and i think after the twins disappearance his mom checks out when it comes to josh’s wellbeing.
#this got way sadder than i meant it to#call me crazy but i don’t think melinda and bob were great parents#josh washington#joshua washington#sam giddings#emily davis#chris hartley#until dawn#supermassive games

valgrace except it’s a modern setting, they separated because leo needed to leave and return home. they hadn’t seen each other since then for a long time, they barely spoke too because life sometimes got in the way, they were too busy. there were phone calls here and there, maybe even an email but nothing exceeded past a day to mark as a routine.
then leo came back. his first thought was wondering where jason was but he was only met with saddened stares.
it was then, that night, leo realized there was a voicemail left in his inbox. he listened to it, pressed the phone to his ear and he cried because all he heard was jason’s voice, the soft and breathy quality like the very clouds gifted him the ability to speak, the rasp that felt like the very lightning that struck in a storm.
leo would listen to that voicemail for days. weeks. he’d call the number and leave voicemails until the number was disconnected and he could no longer remember how jason sounded like.
and it’s ironic at the same time. because leo didn’t remember how he looked either. isn’t the last sense that goes while you’re dying your sense of hearing? a part of leo’s soul died along with jason.
#valgrace#leo valdez#jason grace#pjo#percy jackon and the olympians#hoo#heroes of olympus#percy jackson#fic#my writing#i’ve been#busy unfortunately with studying and whatnot#and hurricanes#love hurricane season it’s fantastic#had this thought while eating actually#it’s vague on purpose don’t ask me for details#but i was like wow wouldn’t the whole leo-jason thing be so much sadder in a modern setting with no powers#like no outside forces#just life getting in the way of things and separating people like usual
