#love letter thingy

[shiningnightstars]

god i love them so much. theyre just so. charming? they just have this CHARM about them. theyre a goofy, silly little guy with a heart of gold and this cute little smile and face they make when they get flustered, and they have this way that they laugh thats just. so adorable. and they have beautiful hazel-brown eyes with such determination and admiration. theyre so strong, theyve gotten through so much in their life. they are so sweet and i love them so much. i could just sit next to them forever. they have nice cool hands that feel nice in my consistently hot and sweaty hands, and they love getting into my hyperfixations. they listen to me and everything i say, and when im feeling down they know exactly how to help me. they are so amazing, im so happy to have found them. they just have such a charm that only they could possess. they care about me more than any other person ever has, and i care about them just the same. whenever we are standing side by side, it feels weird to not have their hand in mine. whenever we sit next to each other, it feels weird to not have my head on their shoulder, looking at whatever they happen to be doing in that moment if theyre cool with it. they make this little noise whenever i lay my head on their shoulder, and its the cutest thing ever. i want to make them happy forever, i want to protect them from whoever or whatever tries to hurt them, i want to see them safe and okay. i want to go through everything for them. if they get married to their girlfriends one day (if polyamory gets legalized) i would absolutely try to attend their wedding and be their best man. i dont think i want to get married to them, i just want to stay in this loving relationship forever. i love them so much and i dont want to let them go.

i love you, mallow, my beloved queer-platonic partner <3

polaris is math and order. hiss is organics and chaos. polaris is about the importance of the individual which comes with the progress. hiss is about the community above individual's will.

polaris didn't help dylan because she wanted jesse to succeed as an individual and not as part of faden family, because her nature is to be unique – and ultimately, alone. that's why hedron ended up being destroyed, darling sent to hell, dylan being abandoned – because polaris already has jesse, a single, most capable host who put herself into the most unique position – the director of federal bureau of control – by herself.

I'm sure that doesn't take much, you are already so mindless! it's impressive that you could get more stupid and silly when you are already such a dummy <3 nursing on me is all your pretty little mind needs to think about. you should get to be thoughtless for as long as possible, it's good for you.

HELLOOOO HOW THE FUCK ARE YALL DOING I HAVE HAD A MOTHERFUCKING DAY

i majored in psych during undergrad and pursuing a degree in counseling psych! if you’re interested in that, lmk and i’ll be more than happy to help you out! the subject itself is very interesting; the downside is that it’s hard to find jobs when you only have your bachelor’s.

i actually started blue lock because my cousin kept talking about it to my sister, and my sister was like “yo, let’s watch it.” i learned from my irl that bllk was the talk of world cup when i told her i started it lol. i’m slowly reading the manga because i’m too nervous; it gave me more mental distress than haikyuu gkgkkg.

huge kudos to you for doing counseling psych bc therapists have lots of emotional intelligence and have to hear people say sad stuff + i literally hated my psych 101 prof and it ruined psych for me haha

ME! as soon as s4 of haikyuu ended i HAD to read the manga bc they just stopped in the middle of the tournament and i needed to know what happened. and yeah blue lock’s cliffhangers in the anime are killing me… and i really need to catch up with it now

have i ever mentioned how much I love these books. I love these books. SO much. I need to actually write some coherent things about them at some point (which i will) cause they are so so important to me, but I just....

The Leagues and Legends trilogy (especially Remember the Dust!!!! I have been rereading that through good days and hard days and boring days and it makes me feel like i'm wrapped up in a warm blanket with the sun shining gently through the clouds outside the window and-- anyway I digress) has my whole heart. The ballads. George!! Laney!! GreyJackRupertJillMarianSezSally-AnneMuchBeaBidi look I love them all okay.

like I said. more coherent words coming shortly but for now just have some feelings.

also. I literally just finished reading Alliance today and aarrrrghh there my heart goes again. I love them. I loved all three of them but idk there's just something about the third book with me apparently, Traitor just....struck a chord? I need it let it just settle softly in my brain for a little while longer before I can come up with coherent words about it i think but. Sash. Eli. Will. Andrea. Nate. Gregory-

*curls up into a tiny little ball to think about all these kiddos and Feel Things*

alright so this was supposed to be something brief and just a reblog of this very cool thingy about these books that i love and i am still slightly scared of tumblr and this whole putting-words-out-there-where-people-can-see-them thing and i hope this tag is okay buuut @ink-splotch in case you ever happen to see this, i just wanna say that your writing is incredible and resonates with me in a way that nothing else really has before, and I'm so glad I stumbled upon it. thank you so much for bringing these beautiful stories out into the world.

also I stuck the links to the books (the e-books are available to download!! for free!!!) in the titles, so just in case anyone is seeing this who hasn't checked 'em out yet, goooooooo find them right now! be prepared to have your whole heart stolen away (and given back, filled to bursting) <3

“This is a story that believes in heroes in the same way it believes in forest fires, or apples dropping to earth, or stairs in a mountainside. Heroes are destructive. They are inevitable, inexorable, and drawn to fall. They are built. The Academy believed in heroes in the same way it believed in uniforms and old family names. Heroism was tangible and came with a badge attached. Jack Farris believed in heroes in the same way the town built up along the banks of the river believed in flotsam.”

Beanstalk, by E. Jade Lomax

Ok, so I’m starting to reread the Leagues and Legends books in my downtime (which today means at almost 1 am after trying to write this on mobile and having it stop working and delete all of it) so you all get some rambles.

First off, this opening is stellar. Right off the bat it tells us that this story falls in the legacy of heroes and fairy tales. Beyond that, in the first five words, we know that this is a meta story, aware of its standing and ready to wink. By the end of the first section, Lomax has hinted at tragic flaws and the hero’s journey, the traumas and dramas (sadly lacking in llamas) that drive heroes forward and forge them into adventurers/rescuers/annihilators.

And then immediately subverts it with an image of heroics as regulated and taught, with an air of pretension. The traditional heroic molds are the prince and the peasant; this two-sentence introduction to the Academy is steeped in classism. Heroism can be born into, it can be bought, and it is bound by appearance.

And then, just for fun, subverts the whole concept of heroics in this world anyway, with the declaration that our leading trickster views them as so much trash and nuisance built up and in the way.

And they’re all true. In her introduction, Lomax maps out the forces shaping the book. At the topmost level, it’s the concept of story itself. Literary traditions and narrative tropes shape storytelling and our understanding of it. They’re important and heavy. On the second level, we see the internal power structures of the world. Forces like the Academy and government agencies, the traditions and culture that have brought the world of the book where they are. And then the bottom level, the individual characters themselves, where Lomax smirks at the top two levels and declares that they might as well be thrown out because these characters will have NONE OF THAT. And we see small rebellions twisting the status quo the whole way through, the power of individuals to cause change, and not just the “oh we saved the world we’re heroes” way.

And this is such a great bit of meta fun, because of course this is a hero story, and of course Jack Farris is a hero, but that gives him even better perspective for how he views them, tbh. And for that matter, while it’s a hero story, it’s probably even more of a healing story, but that’s getting quite ahead of myself and it is now 1:30 in the morning.

bestowing my highest honor as an artist to ffxv (drawing the characters in fun outfits)

thoughts under the cut

RREAAAGHHHH SO EXCITED TO BE DONE WITH THIS!!!!! it took me forevarrrr but i soldiered through as an act of love. now excuse me. yap time

OKAY SO the concept behind this was originally specific fashion subcultures for everyone!l ike noct emo ignis dark academia etc. but then decided i didnt want to pigeonhole it all and just freestyled outfits i thought would look nice on everyone

noct - i do think noct would still be emo-ish but also opt for comfy baggy stuff a lot. something you could just fall asleep in on the spot. note the details of bass pro shop shirt (of course) XV necklace, little moon + stars accents, carbuncle + fish keychains. i also wanted his metal band logo shirt to spell LUCIS but i forgor some letters but its not very readable anyways

ignis - ignit ooohghh ignos ignaurs. sorry i made him serve so much cunt it will happen again. i drew him first cause that kind of inspired this whole thing i love him so bad if i didnt draw it id explode. not much detail to note except his collar pins are like his double blade thingies

luna - lunaaa the concept was “clean girl aesthetic” idk if that happened but im actually really happy with how it came out! might be my favorite of the bunch just because she looks so pretty and happy. your honor she should have been able to just be a normal girl and just. chill

prompto - prompotoooo i had trouble picking his vibe!!! my first thought was techwear?? because weeheeeehee he loves tech and well... you know... but then i realized i didnt really like the look of anything i saw + it was so bulky and dark and serious for him! ending up going with some more youthful and baggy. i was considering something more loud and colorful but ended up not going with it. i feel like in canon he'd be too nervous to have such a flashy fit and would want to just look "cool" to fit in with the boys lol. itty bitty details here - chocobo keychain, pompompurin and bi miku buttons, and his lanyard is kings knight themed! i also thought it was funny to write LUCIS on his shirt like you know those shirts that just say BROOKLYN or TOKYO or SAN FRANCISCO and thats it. thats what its like

gladio - okay i know this is going to sound like a lie but im not horny for gladio like at all, hes my least favorite, i think he's just alright. but also i KNOW in my heart of hearts that he would LOVE being a leather daddy and so i had to make it happen. main detail to note here is that his tank top has the motifs of a cup noodle! i didnt know what else to add cause you know.. hes the cup noodle guy.. but also i didnt want it to be so in your face about it with a big as logo so kept it subtle!

(side note the leather daddy gave me an idea for a post where its like noct and prom go to a gay bar all nervous but then they run into gladio and its like "p: GLADIO YOURE GAY?" "n: nevermind that PLEASE dont tell ignis we snuck out" and then ignis walks up and theyre all like WHAT THE FUCK!!!! caption would be "the gang finds out theyre all bisexual." probably wont draw it but i think its very funny lol)

iris - iris my sweetheart.... definitely leaned into the scene vibes here and also that one image of the blonde emo anime girl. details here - of course the moogle big ass backpack and keychain (can you tell i love keychains), but also her buttons are an iris (the flower) and also a crown with hearts (haha symbolism)

anyways oh god i didnt mean to write an essay down here. usually i keep this in the tags but this time i just had Too Much To Say. can you tell i put a lot of thought and love into this . anwyays. *walks off into the sunset and fuckig dies*
