ITS GOTTA BE PERFECT

A small thing I did in Gmod because it consumes my thoughts for free.

Kind of obsessed with the way Lighter in most of his trust events keeps saying that he wants to kill himself

And when you tell him that you'll jump in after him if he jumps, he says this;

Implying that at the heart of it all, he just really wants someone to care enough about him to jump in with him. To go through the motions of grief with him and to pull him back up.

In Lighter's side story, the Sons of Calydon said that he's an elusive figure to even them in spite of being with them for years. For a long time he considered it a job that he was working to pay back Big Daddy for taking him out of his nightmare and giving him a second chance.

And now knowing what we know about him, we know that he keeps them far away from him and calls his place there a "job" a "debt", because if he gets closer to them and they died...he wouldn't be able to take it anymore.

He already can't take the losses he's had, and he's really only been hanging on all of this time for purposes that he's given himself, like a weary horse following a carrot. Giving his life to the ring as an apology and then giving his life to Big Daddy as repayment.

Debt and guilt have kept him alive for years. He considered himself dead when he sold himself to the ring, and he didn't ever expect to be given the opportunity to live again. To share meals with others or dare to get closer.

Knowing this, it also re-contextsualizes the devastation on his face when he'd thought that he'd lost Caesar in Tour de Inferno and also his relationship with Lucy considering she wears her hair similar to Dane's little sister.

So...he can't quite exactly envision a world with him in it yet. Belle and Wise are meeting him at a time in his life where he's wondering to himself if he actually has the right to live again and if he deserves that privilege. He's wondering if he's strong enough to let people in and to love again, even if it means that he may lose them.

He's unable to trust himself and afraid of being a leader--content with being a background character in their lives. Someone who's easy to let go...in case he were to dissappear. In case he dies. He plays the role of a silent protector even though he needs someone to lean on the most.

So this part of him is interesting, and the implications of him showing his real self little by little is deeply compelling to me. So many of his trust events are dedicated to him saying that he wants to die. But in so many of them, he's also saying, "Please don't let me die" and "If I die, will you care? If me dying makes you so sad then...I guess I can't die." finding more and more reasons to keep on living.

He's finding himself wanting again. Wanting someone who will ride with him, someone that listens to him. Someone that cares that he's still here and will miss him when he's gone.

He's finding more and more reasons. Things to look forward to.

...I-It's gonna be perf-fect!....

IT'S GONNA BE PERFECT!-

I drew SMG4. Not on the topic of his new episode, but still ⊂⁠(⁠´⁠･⁠◡⁠･⁠⊂⁠ ⁠)⁠∘⁠˚⁠˳⁠°

So... I watched the new episode and I'M SO EXCITED FOR THE SEQUEL!!!1! WHO WILL SAVE MEGGIE? TARI OR MARIO? I'M STILL IN ANTICIPATION AAAAAAAAA!!!!!

[wolfram-but-art]

i adore ur engie having a chord tail so re: requests how does spy feel about/interact with it

he'd mostly think it's endearing, part of Dell's silly charm. sort of like when you see a puppy

sometimes Dell uses it to get Spy' attention, or to make sure he's still with him and Spy sometimes uses it to make sure Dell doesn't impulse buy a set of power drills or a tablesaw

though, no matter how much spy thinks the tail is cute, he knows it was designed out a desperation.

things rarely go without complications when dealing with amputation and prostetics - things like phantom pain or conectivity issues and basically an every day issue Dell will be forever insecure about the fact he can't just engineer it all away, he definitely regrets cutting half his arm off.

so he designed the tail as a way to counter his weakness. but what if Dell doesn't just stop at the tail? what if he tries to mess with his anatomy further? what if he ends up doing something that irreversably destroys his body? sure he's an engineer, but not a medical proffesional.

what if the pain becomes unbearable for Dell though? what if further modifications are necessary for him to live in peace? will Dell know when to stop? Will Spy know when to draw the line? when to put his foot down?

what if Dell loses himself to the idea that he can elliminate all that is wrong with him with mods like this? what if this is just the beginning?

for now it's probably fine. probably

'Exes to Lovers' prompts aaaah :

(feel free to use | also YALL GOTTA WRITE AND TAG ME. 8, 15, 19???? 20 and 25TH AHHHHH.)

glancing when the other isn't looking

not being able to hold their eye.

walking into them after years or months and realising, nothing has changed.

"wanna.. meet up for uhm some coffee later this week?"

realising how much you admire each other

getting too close to one another and fumbling away.

being pushed onto them in a crowd. and they're as warm as they were. AHHH

a brush of their fingers over yours. that small glance.

them shielding you from the crowd in an elevator (kdrama vibes aaah)

doing something you both used to do together. (like dancing, karaoke, baking, movie nights, getting coffee together etc)

laughing comes so easily with them. them knowing how to make u feel at ease >>>>

wondering if another step is taken it'll end up the way it was--broken.

"I've.. always missed you."

being so close to kissing. but saying, "I'm sorry." while still leaning in. "im so so sorry, i can't do this-" and then leaving.

"am i reading this wrong? if I'm.. push me away." WHILE BEING SO CLOSE, NOSES TOUCHING, eyes all over your LIPS AND SHI. AHHH.

"i don't want to lose you again, [name]. it hurt too much the first time and i was a coward for letting you go like that."

holding hands. trying to let go, but they gently squeeze it tighter.

falling back in love with how it feels to be around them first before u fall in ♡ w them.

"how can i ask you to stay tonight?" as a whisper, as a silent plead, or as a clingy tug.

"don't leave me alone." "i won't, love. not this time. never again."

the yearning gazes, lying near each other. just looking into each other's eyes.

"I've missed," they say pulling you closer, "everything about you."

"i didn't know how i feel yet. for you. for.. this."

^ "but..?" "but I'd like to listen to my heart. that's asking me to stay..."

kissing while crying?? just. gasping for more, fitting right between their arms and loving it???? ahhhh :'((

The Fallen - SMG4 AU

"Hunted by The Past Mistake."

Alright! So some context!

Welcome to a new AU me and a friend @dorriostareyes have been cooking up called The Fallen.

The Fallen is a au based solely on the events in Its Gotta Be Perfect.

Instead of Four saving Three he lets him fall and despite the SMG4 crew believing Three to be dead they couldn't be more wrong when they go do the episode "Let's Go Visit Peach".

What they find is a Demon Goop Possessed 3 roaming the ruined castle with Peach.

And now SMG4 will have to face the consequences of his actions...

[xxplastic-cubexx]

sorry just got reminded of the entirety of uncanny x-men #309 and how it's charles having a therapy session with himself about his love life and desires and how he kept sacrificing himself and his wants for The Cause and the whole time he imagines erik to represent his innermost thoughts in the form of a therapist to have him unravel all this

[mythandmagic]

please Please PLEASE everyone go read Like Every Tree Stands on Its Own by @mightybog it is phenomenal and has deliciously altered my brain chemistry. AND there's a sequel in the works which is sure to be just as marvelous and heartwrenching and beautiful as the first.

Seriously, I have been rotating this story for days, even made some picrews about it (courtesy of ElenaA's Kiss Crew, beloved).

Anyway, please go read and kudos and comment and show her some love because she deserves it.
