oh god when karen white confronts alec at the trader’s hotel saying “i won’t let you do that to another family” and he just. stares. he was going off at her a moment before, but now he just stares. then the scene cuts. oh my GODDDDD YOU CAN SEE THE WAY IT’S EATING AT HIMMMMM
like yes alec already has a habit of just blankly not responding. he’ll follow through with a conversation and then just hop off halfway through (*cough* autism *cough*). but this time, his silence is different. it isn’t him not knowing how to respond, it’s him ACTIVELY FIGHTING TO HOLD HIS TONGUE
he made a decision to take the blame for tess and daisy’s sake, and now he just has to sit there and take it, to cope with his own decision. you can see him gritting his teeth, coming to terms with that in that moment, and it’s ONLY something you can notice in hindsight once you know about sandbrooke
#the only time alec has to fight to HOLD his tongue instead of fight to get the words out#is when he’s faced with his crushing sense of moral obligation#he cares about those families so much#and not disappointing them#even though sandbrooke wasnt technically his fault he still feels guilty#he discharges himself from the hospital saying he cant let down the family#so when someone accuses him of not caring he was probably about to fucking explode#and YET#he also had an obligation towards HIS family#so he holds his tongue#even though his family get the impression that he cares about the cases more than them#here he makes it clear#if he had to choose#what he would choose#im crazy im crazy im crazy#these are very half baked thoughts im sorry#im just rambling#broadchurch#alec hardy#david tennant#autistic alec hardy

i am also. not normal about kiryu and majima and death. the insistence that kiryu can only die by majima's hand. a man who already lost everything once, who keeps getting dragged into shit time and time again, who frequently wonders why he hasn't already died, who perhaps would prefer it at this point. is not allowed to die. because there is only one person in the whole world who is allowed to kill him. who will kill anyone trying to take that privilege away from him. who will remind kiryu of this agreement as many times as it takes to drill it in. he is not allowed to die until majima says so. until he drives that dagger through kiryu's chest himself. and until that day comes he's going to get up and live and fight for his life if he must, because to give up would be letting down someone who's already bled more than he should have for kiryu's sake. and we wouldn't want that to happen would we
#soda.txt#yakuza#majima goro#kiryu kazuma#it is such a good fucking detail. fuck#like i think it must have started as just “oh majima is soooo crazy look at him wanting to kill kiryu himself”#but it has mutated into something more over time and that's beautiful to me#a silent agreement voiced as some kind of joke even. but it carries so much weight all the same#do you think kiryu thinks about it when he's hanging on by a thread#do you think he feels guilty when the thought of letting go crosses his mind in the midst of a survival situation#because the hand trying to kill him isn't covered in a black leather glove#kazumaji#you know what yeah it's also kazumaji

Ngl gumball is the type to not fuck around when someone says anything about his gf he's very obsessed with
the tags aren't letting me tell you how gumball literally brought an entire PERSON, probably a dead one of unconscious as a SACRIFICE to a fake cult made by his own teachers and classmates (they didn't take it well)
#this guy had the idea to rip in pieces his classmate uncle to fill a box for a BIRTHDAY GIFT#killed his classmate multiple times just to prove a point#tried to decapitate Leslie and in the most creepy way ever#burned his own gf house down to impress her#did give his own gf an allergic reaction multiple times#tried to choke his own bother because of a dream that didn't even happen#panicked multiple times about his gf nit loving him anymore and resulted in destroying the town more than once#almost killed rob with no hesitation#made his own brother feel guilty about eating potatoes in front of a potato while HE HIMSELF ate potatoes and didn't give a single fuck#sold somebody's parents to prove a point#framed people multiple times#did commit manslaughter before#created toxic and radioactive chemicals just because he didn't wanna admit he was wrong#his plan as a president us to literally bomb the entire country without a care#“we all know how things will go so let's just skip to the end” [bomb dropped]#he was dully prepared and committed to kill whoever was trying to fancy his mother#DID jumped into literal fire just for a stupid ass lucky hat#there's more but this guy.#this guy is not okay#tawog#the amazing world of gumball#tawog gumball#gumball watterson#also he proposed like 2 times in a row to penny#he mentioned to Darwin he was creepily obsessed with his own gf#is a narcissist but like#very slightly#he does have a HUGE ego though#his brother isn't safe either Darwin literally kidnapped someone's mom to get a videogame back and did chop somebody's head off#the last one was a mistake though

And then she threatens to kill him if he doesn't man up and say that while looking her in the eye (and then he apologizes while looking at her in the eye because he cannot be directly rude).
#my characters#they might all be adults but really they are also children - they are my children your honor i love them#imagine right and brent to the side and right saying wow damn cant believe blondie was told what i expected to hear my whole life#and brent saying he would take his life and then there is a pause and then he says ah wait that was more threatening than i intended#and right yelling to karen HEY BLONDIE I THINK BRENT JUST THREATENED TO KILL ME#and she yells back BUT I CANT CHOOSE BETWEEN YOU TWO THREATEN TO KILL PAUL OR SOMEONE ELSE I CAN SACRIFICE#and rick just relieved the focus is off of him so fast because he doesnt want to die by karens hands#and doesnt know she actually wouldnt kill him bc she would feel too guilty bc hes too nice and she has a small conscience#thats why please threaten paul i would love to kill paul it would be cathartic actually please let me kill paul#its a dnd au and she craves the murder and violence ok let her have this its not real#thinking about right and brent a lot lately and yet i didnt even draw them ...

sometimes I think about Q and their design and skill and how I think I could make an argument for them representing many characters childhoods and how the trauma from when they were kids impacts them as adults.
#bsd#I could also make an argument for how mori is presented as an antagonist in the story#and the complicated relationship the children he abused have with him#it’s similar to how Atsushi can’t figure out how to feel about the director of his orphanage both dying-#and having not been entirely evil. because it’s easier to think that someone who hurt you was evil#rather than a person. and then there’s the cycle of abuse that asagiri explores#how the orphanage director was also abused- how Dazai treats Akutagawa because of how mori treated him#and then how akutagawa treats Kyouka because of how Dazai treated him#how does Q tie into all this?#well- their skill is that people who hurt them go crazy right? they start to murder people#the more people that harm this child- the more cruelty and suffering because of it#during the guild arc Q is screaming ‘you’re hurting me’ over and over#they don’t want to be in pain. but their only defense is to inflict pain upon others#even if it means they remain hurt- someone else is hurt as well#there’s a moment when Q is first introduced#where they get at Atsushi. and then Atsushi attacks the agency because of Q’s skill#Dazai’s reaction to mori letting Q out is anger. the way that he snaps Atsushi out of his guilt#is slapping him in the face. mori let Q out-> Dazai is angry-> Dazai slaps Atsushi#mori->Dazai->Atsushi#and the reason that Atsushi is so guilty and scared is because he doesn’t want to be like the orphanage director said he was#all of it is trauma from how they were treated as children- and Q is a child whose skill is to hurt people when they hurt them

Confessing my sins to the internet because my irl friends don't know my tumblr
I'm actually a horrible friend and I don't plan to change :)
I'll be a good friend to anyone I actually like and I usually don't associate with people who I don't like, but sometimes there will be an occasional lonely (usually annoying) kid that follows me around. (They're lonely for a reason.) I kinda hate people who are loud literally all the time but I can hold my tongue and this kinda person just doesn't leave because they're not being told directly to leave.
What do I do? I talk to them only when I need them, I make unnecessarily mean comments as a joke, I point out their obvious flaws that I know they have a hard time changing, and all while they still follow me around like I'm not kinda bullying them.
Sometimes I'll treat them like an actual friend when I'm in a good mood, but if I'm not, then the unfortunate victim becomes my emotional punching bag. (I have ways to quickly fix my mood and this is completely unnecessary and I could distance myself until I feel better like how I do with actual friends.) I think this is like. Breadcrumbing? Anyways yeah, toxic shit.
If any of your "friends" treat you like this, they don't see you as a friend. If they leave you doubting if they like you or not, leave you doubting if you're actually friends, they probably don't see you as a friend. (because that's the case for me :3 )
I'm a horrible human being and I don't feel nearly as bad as I should about it :)
#i had a friend in primary school who was treated like this by me and my then best friend for the whole 6 years#she was very much bullied i think#we literally had a “class x girls group” and “class x girls group without (victim)” and we sometimes shit talked her in there#my best friend was a bit more obvious about not liking her#she would like be my shield anytime things got confrontational while i never stood up for myself#pretty sure she shared snacks with me a lot too and i just never returned the favour.#and now theres this boy that has nearly no friends who follow me around during breaks#just today i literally gave him the silent treatment because i was having an inner monologue and i didn't bother telling him#i even found it kinda funny that i walked around silently while he muttered to himself and questioned if he did anything wrong#like dude no you didn't do anything wrong but also i found it too funny to correct you#i have actual friends that i treat decently btw#like. without all this weird shit#i just take advantage of the loney and probably neurodivergent kids :)#moral of the story. please have more than 1 friend. especially irl. dont let them treat you like how i treat these poor “friends” of mine#ive literally never told the 2 people i mentioned here anything along the lines of “im grateful i have you”#feel free to stop being my friend because of a post like this :3#i wouldnt say i *like* being a horrible friend but also im like. not doing anything about it and not bothering to change for the sake of#these people who are already kind of outcasted and probably need someone to rely on#“im not doing charity” proceeds to refuse basic respect to these people because theyre “annoying”#you could call this a vent post#im kind of telling myself that im a horrible person to begin with so i feel less bad about “breaking character” on top of being guilty#honestly i hope this kind of person finds someone who genuinely accepts them because they deserve better than this#and also because theyre a headache for me and im sick of them

okay to those of you who saw my last rb and care about my stupid guilty gear au. i NEED to rant right now. Massive long winded about bedkari (aka bedman x hikari, my stupid ship that’s part of reverie of rebirth) under the cut. Be warned they’re so toxic yuri
i just realized. The cornered pray analogy exactly how the dynamic between Romeo and Hikari is. The lamb preparing for their slaughter specifically is. Exactly them. But the thing is… The roles are swapped in a way.
Romeo, of course, has sheep elements. Those are a huge part of his design- Even in his canon story as well. He’s a lamb being led by a shepherd. He’s naively being led along by Ariels, she calms him when he rebels or lashes out against her, and she led him all the way to his eventual slaughter. He’s the lamb.
But with Hikari, he gets to be the shepherd.
Hikari is a yokai. She’s powerful. I wrote her to be powerful on purpose. She could be fatally wounded and survive, not even batting an eye due to her lack of pain receptors. Which she does. Right when she first meets Romeo. He tries to kill her, and yet she’s unfazed. She doesn’t care. She didn’t feel anything, and she knows she wants to be near him no matter what. All that’s important is pleasing him.
Basically all Hikari knows is Romeo. When she first met him and emotionally latched onto him, she had only recently awoken and still had all her emotions. All her emotions were developed around Romeo’s guidance and treatment of her, which basically just meant being his little assistant, aiding in his war crimes, and associating joy with his slightly harsh treatment.
All Hikari knows is showing her neck and stomach to Romeo.
When comparing the specific animal motifs of both Romeo and Hikari, it’s really fun to see the contrast. Hikari has the designs element of the predator animal, while Romeo has motifs of the prey. However, those roles are swapped in terms of their behavior. Romeo is abrasive and only begins to show care towards his yokai companion after months in his presence, while said companion innocently follows his commands and accepts anything he throws her way- Naively believing every word he says like it’s gospel. A little cat blindly loving the cruel shepherd. It’s a beautiful parallel that honestly was not intentional.
The sheep bares its teeth and bites into the neck of the two-tailed cat.
#cyrambles#reverie of rebirth au#oc: hikari#guilty gear oc#bedman guilty gear#<— sure i’ll tag this with his main tag. i’m feeling brave today#when you add ariels and happy chaos into this whole dynamic too it becomes even more fascinating too#it’s almost like a food chain but for people with godlike powers#hikari’s at the bottom. innocently following whatever bedman says to do#basically letting her emotions form skewed and unhealthily centered around romeo just because she loves him so much#above her is romeo. cynical and sadistic and yet still manipulated by ariels#all he wanted was safety for himself and his sister and he was unfortunately taken advantage of by the person he opened up to#above him is ariels. the universal will. the true shepherd. going along calmly until it’s finally time for the slaughter of her dear sheep#and at the very top is chaos. the horrid blue man#he controlled ariels to the highest degree. laying dormant in her until he decided he could put everything in motion#in a way. he probably planned all of this#anyways on a note that isn’t me getting philosophical about a japanese fighting game#bedkari is toxic yuri#they are. my friend and i said so (this is a heterosexual relationship)

I would give so much just to have this back.
#thank you everyone for being so kind#this one is so sudden and is hitting so hard#and he's just gone#i don't feel him with me#i don't hear his tags jingling#i hope i see him breathing and i feel how cold and stiff he is#and the ground is too frozen to bury him#but even letting him rest in his crate where he can be kept cool until then feels wrong#he lived his last week in the crate#i should have given him more supervised time loose#my brain is desperately looking to be guilty#there's a hole in my chest

This "Joyce figuring out Jancy are together" fic has gotten a little out of hand but that's fine
#me: i can write a short little fun fic#also me: 5k words on Joyce's complicated feelings about trying to parent Jonathan but feeling out of her depth bc he's 17#and she's also trying to work through her grief and accidentally leaned on him too much again#and feels incredibly guilty about it but doesn't know how to fix it#but she's also wrestling with the fact that he's not a little boy anymore and that he's suddenly not around the house as much#also let me be clear#the whole time our beloved Joyce does not realize that Jonathan saying he was going out with Nancy meant he's dating her#so that poor woman is even more confused by these changes#anyways#she's trying her best

shepherd saying, “war isn’t about friends, it’s about enemies” when friendship is the main reason the 141 find all the missiles and take down hassan just scratches a lovely itch
laswell is able to find out hassan’s in mexico and working with the cartel bc of her friendship with price and gaz, who are already in amsterdam. they’re able to get the jump on him and find out about him shipping the missiles over the atlantic bc of her friendship with alejandro. price and gaz are able to fly to al mazrah in time to intercept aq bc of price’s friendship with nik and they’re able to get laswell back bc of their friendship with farah. soap makes it through las almas and eventually kills hassan in chicago bc he successfully befriended ghost, who stayed behind at his own risk and kept giving him advice he wasn’t required to give
the real treasure was literally the friendships they made along the way
#i didnt expect friendship to be such a core theme in call of duty of all things yet here we are#and its even a personal character arc for ghost#he goes from literally being alone in the games intro to having a team named after him#a team that he trusts with his face#from being so obviously unhappy at having to work with soap to opening up and letting himself get closer to him#and even to a lesser extent alejandro and graves#just to be betrayed by graves#his utter panic at seeing soap injured after being so annoyed by him in al mazrah just hits so hard#and going back to his old behaviour and leaving soap behind just to feel guilty and stay to help him get out is just 🤌🏻#letting soap lead him through the cameras is an olive branch and apology all in one#just him going i trust you to get me through this alive just like you trusted me#like i shouldve trusted you in las almas#just dozens of tiny moments that all boil down to friendship and trust and shepherd only seeing enemies completely blinds him#and ultimately leads to his downfall#‘we dont bury each other do we’ thats the throughline of the entire campaign#even graves not trusting his shadows enough to tell them theyre transporting missiles#maybe if they knew that theydve been more cautious and not been caught off guard by the russians#and hassan never wouldve gotten his hands on them#coming out of my cage and ive been doing just fine.txt#call of duty#cod mw2#simon ghost riley#ghost cod#ghost mw2#soap mactavish#soap mw2#soapghost#general shepherd#kate laswell#we’re a team. ghost team

*chants in increasing volume* ghost AU ghost AU GHOST AU GHOST AU
#dolphin noises#wips#I love me a good ghost AU 😭💜🎉😁#Timeline-wise I'm thinking maybe Cedric succeeding in his coup and Asbel arriving at the catacombs too late#Asbel passing right by ghost!Richard like a reversal of that iconic richass shot in the opening~#initially only Sophie can see his spirit due to her own enhanced capabilities#and Asbel can see him when they're all 3 holding hands a la Friendship Pact 💙💜💛#but ghost AUs are pretty much inherently tragic since someone's already dead#and if you play this one right you don't even need Lambda. One malevolent spirit is plenty 🙃#Asbel feels guilty for being unable to protect Richard in time but gets a chance to redeem himself this way#by helping Richard with his unfinished business that keeps him from moving on#Initially it's to ensure that his kingdom is not left in Cedric's hands (and maybe get a little revenge)#but Richard's own resentment twists him into wanting to take back EVERYTHING he's lost including things he simply can't get back#Richard's nature turns vampiric as he needs more and more eleth to sustain his continued half existence eventually targeting the valkines#And Asbel who had been so ready to give anything to help Richard realizes his beloved friend is crossing a line. people are getting hurt.#Thus the theme of the story shifts from 'protecting the will to live' to 'learning when to let go'#Poor Asbel having to learn this lesson first. That the best thing he can do for Richard is stop indulging his tainted wishes#and instead grieve together w him over what could have been then move on. It wasnt fair it wasnt kind but neither is what Richard's doing#it's basically the canon story except instead of saving richard and bringing him back it's saving richard and letting him go#it's angsty and bittersweet AF which is how you can tell it's PEAK dolphin AU 😅 themes of grief and loss and loneliness#helping someone who's lost themselves to obsessive love#'cause that's where Richard's anger comes from. the loss hurts so much because he cared so much. he wanted to fix the world then LIVE in it#dammit this is a half-baked idea and im already weeping 😭

#okay anyways i guess i will sleep after this post#but my mind is full of thoughts and worries#머리가 복잡해#that's how i really feel#it's 3 am but i can't seem to relax and sleep#i need to attend my grandpa's funeral in a few hours and i am scared because it'll be overwhelming#and i still feel bad i couldn't go to my other grandpa's funeral#i wanted to give my farewell to him properly but i ended up staying home#and didn't fly there with my family#it was excruciatingly emotionally painful to be so far away and alone#so i feel even more guilty that i am attending this funeral#i loved and i love my grandparents equally#i just hope tomorrow (well today) flies fast because i can't take it#the idea of letting all these loved ones go especially during winter is unbearable#ehh.. ok didi time to shut up#goodnight i love jonghyun

Rivera waking up in Gus' fake middle class house after getting shot and having Gus tend to his wounds and cook for him like
"Did I die? Is this Heaven? What's going on"
#Gus is NOT normal about it#He still can't even admit to himself that he has become attached to Rivera but he also feels guilty over getting him injured#AND he feels super uncomfortable and vulnerable letting anyone into his space - even a facade of his space#so he doesn't know what to do with himself. Meanwhile Rivera is just like YIPPEE ^_^#[Rivera voice] I should almost die more often#🐔💎#personal

Hahahaa he's so "bright talented young man alters himself to attain greatness and escape a life he was unhappy with but despite warnings (he ignored them) fails in the end and dies while his father lives on without him"
Secondly though I also HAD to throw on some Mother Mother. Notably, Body (tbh a disabled bitch anthem imo) and Arms Tonight (y'know. Bc the end of the game). Stg I'll send you the playlists for the Arakawa's when I'm done with them. I take my sweet ass time tho v sorry hahaha 😂
Litcherallyyyyyy thats what im sayin bro..... esp when in the story of icarus his father helps him escape the island/helps him succeed and when icarus does fail his father is left imprisoned.... does that not happen to our icarus too.... does that not happen to his father also..... wild....
And take your time with your playlists, no rush ! A dude knows what its like tryin to make it Just Right
#snap chats#the icarus comparison is more ironic considering in the story icarus plummets to the ocean and drowns...#And If We Say Irony. Since Arakawa Was Dumped In The Ocean. lol....#but noo i gotta be so guilty since growin up i always took Body as a trans allegory. or at least adjacent#and ik i havent breathed about it in Months but aoki did evoke trans energy... to me... to my delulu-ass brain...#but then i feel bad cause aspects of him that Yell trans to me are actually about his disability so i feel like im disregarding it#even tho thats not my intent i was just too silly playin y7 the first time around 😭☠️☠️ its generally why i dont talk bout it tbh..#too delulu.. and i feel awkward talkin bout hcs like that BUT MOVING ON THIS IS NOT ABOUT THAT#either way body Does fit. esp with the whole Take My Lungs Take Them And Run bit ☠️#Take My Tongue And Go Have Some Fun can also be representative of aoki’s influence and- apparently- the publics inclination to follow him#I.E. with His Tongue anything can be passed or anything that has his backing can be validated#BUT IM NOT HERE TO DO AN ANALYSIS ON MUSIC AND AOKI even if i really want to.........#i will say tho... im 90% sure theres a line about Taking Eyes but i cant look it up rn lest my tumblr app reser and i have to type all this#but anyway That Refers To This Bitch’s Eyesight Getting Worse#im gonna go listen to that song now its stuck in my head.. uh oh...#everyone always say Mother Mother is Basic and that may be true but so am i so let me listen while i be sad THANK YOU.#ok bye <3 ive prattled too long and my phone will surely die soon and i want One (1) listen in <3
