well actually, you're correct. Toni is Fran's rock and they will always be there for each other. He'll be the his companion in arms, his brother from another mother, his best friend and occasional lover or partner in crime. I think from all nations he's the one Fran actually relies on and trusts. Not even dear Arthur is like that for him.
HARD AGREE 💞💗💖💯🇪🇸🇫🇷
i'm not saying they've never fought or squabbled, or been petty and made each other jealous. they know how to push each other's buttons but unlike some people, more often they choose not to. they can't stay upset with each other. what you said about trust is so real and again, big agree! like, when fran's PTSD is acting up and everyone else thinks he's hysterical, or when toni's smile starts to fade and he slips back into regressive anger, they calm each other down.
their bond is incomprehensible to others because it surpasses typical boundaries. not sure if i'm using this term correctly, but it's beyond queerplatonic, it's relationship anarchy. they hold each other, kiss each other, call one another mi amor and mon cœur, share clothes, perhaps share a bed, feed each other, dance together, listen to one another lament about boy problems, even go so far as to help them solve said problems. hell, they might even share a man. love BTT as a polycule, but also arthur + fran + toni? turkspafra? obviously, romespafra. the absolute potential between these two.
as much as i love young scotfra and the history of the auld alliance, i would argue that not only was antonio françois' first love (aside from rome) but that this might actually be his healthiest relationship, ultimately. again not saying there's been zero toxicity since the beginning of time, (or backstabbing, or fighting over colonies) but most consistent and dependable and trustworthy. and EQUAL, which is a big deal. they don't patronize each other, unlike some. and also unlike other nations, they're more likely to see past each other's external flaws because they remember a time when all they knew was being young and weak and vulnerable, together; no matter where they may stand today.

on the one hand I think inner demons could stand to have a bit more romanced rook specific content, but on the other hand the underlying in-built implication that 'yours is the one true voice of comfort and safety in my inner world' is a sentiment and intimacy so way beyond the romantic or the platonic or any secret third thing you could care to name that it makes me lose my entire poor little mind a bit. it's so big and fundamental — near-existential — that in that exact moment at least the distinctions kind of seem irrelevant.
all the people lucanis' mind conjures up along the way are relationships he has that are unavoidably mixed and fraught in some ways even when they're also full of love (they are fraught BECAUSE they're full of love) — the good in them inseparable from things that hurt him at the same time. (it's about: the basic disorganized attachment patterns this poor guy is dragging around with him. careful with those, they're dellamorte heirlooms. what you love also inevitably hurts you and you won't be allowed to have one without the other, you have to surrender parts of your soul to hold on to what little you have left: this is the story up until now.) and the idea that rook isn't that to him — that beneath the fear of wanting them when romanced (which is more its own separate thing because within this psychology, actively wanting something and not just clinging on for dear life to even a meager status quo lest you lose it is in itself dangerous bordering on catastrophic), this is a relationship where there isn't resentment, or guilt, or shame, or dread, or rage, or self-hate, or any of the other emotions that keep him paralyzed, unable to move this way or that. no debts, nothing owed of yourself and your soul's substance except what you can freely and safely and happily give. love and freedom don't coexist — but, I mean, you're almost starting to make me think........... unless...👀👀👀. the unconditional and undramatic 'you are here and I am here with you, you can be exactly how you are right now with me and it's safe for us both even though you're afraid it won't be, I'm not going anywhere' acceptance rook shows him here that he returns to them in the big romance scene, when it's rook who needs it. the way he's just. standing there in the center of it all, like a child desperately helplessly waiting to be found, hiding in the place he hopes you'll know to look first. (rook does know. it's one of the first things they say in there.)
in short the most important room in his little mind palace for the romance is the very first room — the one where rook isn't. where, in fact, rook cannot be, because they disprove the entire structure of the place with their existence and presence in his life. with everyone else he's putting words in their mouths about what they think of him, and rook is the one who actually gets to come in to speak their own words to him — and have him listen. ('he'll listen to you, he always listens to you', 'your voice is a comfort'.) of course rook isn't present anywhere else in there — at the risk of stating the obvious to a tedious degree, they aren't one of the locks, they're bringing the key. in the very finest 'the messenger and the message' sort of way.
#dragon age#dragon age: the veilguard#dragon age: the veilguard spoilers#dragon age spoilers#lucanis dellamorte#rook x lucanis#rookanis#dragon age meta#rook is his first brush with actual safe attachment. and to me and because of who I am as a person#nothing could be more romantically devastating or impactful fhdsjkfhs that's literally the unreachable wistful dream the pie in the sky#the garrus romance echoes too. some of the same stuff going on under the hood here#you know who else he's sneakily like too actually? iron bull. the 'no matter where I turn I'll hurt someone I love' and dissociation stuff#there's that whole line about 'walking close to the edge or whatever'#which is masterful as a diversion b/c what this romance is really about is feeling truly safe with someone#in a sort of weirdly realistic way that makes it struggle with the conventions of video game romance but sure is Doing something!#and I unwittingly made a rook who also is on that specific arc so it's working out just devastating for me thanks for asking#the part in andrea gibson's 'prism' that's like. there is no shelter in the womb it's where you learn the cord that feeds you#could at any moment wrap around your neck.

hope you feel better soon!

I am riddled with ailments, but I stay silly!
#ask#non mdzs#My health journey has been: Hernia -> acid reflux -> Vocal pain due to aforementioned reflux -> chest infection.#I'm terrified to know what's about to hit me next. Please let it be something kind. PLEASE.#The consequence of living with linguists is that you'll wake up with a wacked up voice -#suddenly you're sitting you down in front of a program called something like Praat having your shimmer and jitter levels calibrated.#They gave me a GRBAS of 33012. I have a fun thing called a pitch break where a whole octave just does not exist.#My vocal pain was bad enough I ended up seeing a speech pathologist and that whole experience was super neat!#I learnt a lot about voice - to be honest I might make a little comic on it after some more research. Fascinating stuff.#For example; your mental perception of our voice modulates the muscles of the vocal folds and larynx.#meaning that when you do have changes (inflammation = more mass = lower frequency)#your brain automatically attempts to correct it to what it 'should sound like'. Leading to a lot more vocal strain and damage!#And it gets really interesting for trans voice care as well - because the mental perception of one's voice isn't based on an existing sampl#So a good chunk of trans voice training is also done with the idea of finding one's voice and retraining the brain to accept it. Neat!#Parkinsonial Voice also has this perception to musculature link! The perception is that they are talking at a loud/normal volume#but the actual voice is quite breathy and weak. So vocal training works on practicing putting more effort into the voice#and retraining the brain to accept the 'loud' voice as 'normal'.#Isn't the human body fascinating?#Anyhow; Now I have vocal exercises and strategies to reduce strain and promote healing.#Which is a lot better than my previous strategy of yelling AAAH in my car until my 'voice smoothed out'.#You can imagine the horror on the speech path's face. I am an informed creature now.#I'm my own little lab rat now. I love learning and researching. Welcome to my tag lab. Class is dismissed.#I'll be back later with a few more answered asks </3 despite everything I'm still going to work and I need the extra sleep.#Thank you for the well wishes! And if you read all of that info dump; thank you for that as well!

"You are someone who needs dreams more than you need nice things. You are someone who needs faith more than you need bulletproof, long-term plans. You are someone who needs to see your life as unlimited more than you need to recognize the inevitable obstacles and disappointments that lie ahead. You’re a person who needs to worship the sky in the morning, and while you praise the peach and gold light, you need to treasure every mistake you’ve ever made like a tarnished ring, like a clay heart, like a smooth river rock. Mundane mistakes and mundane objects are filled with magic. You have the rare ability to recognize that. Everything that goes wrong right now is a gift that shows you what you don’t want. Everything that goes right is a glimpse of what’s possible. This is true for all of us, no matter how old we are, but it’s especially true for you in this moment, because everything is new for you. You will look back on these days when you’re older and have even more problems, big and small, and you’ll say “Sure this stuff is hard, but at least I’m not living at home and working at that torturous fucking job!” You will feel grateful that this unlimited world gave you an opportunity to see who you are, as clear as day, without a shadow of doubt. Because knowing who you are and what you love is bliss. You can get through a lot, once you know who you are and you’re willing to stand up for who you are.
You just need to understand this: You are a person who needs to cultivate an unlimited mindset no matter what you’re doing. You need to imagine big things. You need to dream.
The most precious thing you own is your faith in your own stubborn heart, your own delirious soul, your own glorious dreams.
Pursue your academic dreams. Don’t do it because you’ll become someone important. Do it because it makes you feel alive right now, it supports who you are, it gives you an unparalleled opportunity to embody your values and principles. Difficulties and obstacles only make it even more possible to manifest your faith and inspire others with it. You will be rich or poor or somewhere it between, and it won’t matter that much. What will always matter is how you feel RIGHT NOW, what you believe in RIGHT NOW, and how unlimited the world feels to you RIGHT NOW. At the heart of all of this, for you, is daring to feel more, daring to care more, daring to invest and invest and invest, daring to look like a fool in the eyes of those who never dare. This is who you are. You are luminous when you feel everything, when you dare, when you give up on having too much and you learn how perfect JUST ENOUGH looks and feels to you. It looks like less than enough to others. That’s not your problem. You will lose faith. You will feel discouraged. You will feel tired. And you will get up the next day and believe all over again. This is who you are."

some short warmup comics about my mom and transformers. TF One was her first time watching any transformers media and her favorite character IS in fact Bumblebee 💛
she also refers to him almost exclusively as "Bumble". the only time she calls him anything else is...
Tumblr media
... when she calls him "Badassatron"

Anyway, after watching the Wicked movie again, I think my ideal outcome of the love triangle in a canon divergence scenario is "Gelphie and their free-range boytoy Fiyero who comes and goes as he pleases."

The Clingy GlassHeart Girlfriends:
[Middle of GlassHeart debate about neediness]
Red: I am not needy!
Chloe: . . .
Still Chloe: . . .
Absolutely still Chloe: . . .
Chloe, sighing: Red you are the definition of needy, you once woke me up in the middle of the night at 2:36 AM when we were CUDDLING and SLEEPING IN THE SAME BED to make sure we were still dating.
_Two Days Earlier_
Red sleeping during her midday nap:
Chloe, gently shaking her awake: Hey Red, could you please wake up love?
Red, sleepily: Hm? What is it Bluely?
Chloe a little jittery: Could you please get up and go with me to this social gathering with my friends, I’m feeling to anxious to go without you right now.
Red, still very sleepily staring at her: . . .
Chloe, pulling out the puppy eyes: Pleaseeeeeeee
Red waking up a bit more: Fine! Just 5 more minutes.
Chloe: But Red, I want you awake now!
Red: If you want time with me before you see your friends, cuddle with me or suffer. [Immediately falls back to sleep]

Hey, Zep! Can you tell me more about Wake Up Call? :)
Hey there! 💜
Certainly! Re: the WIP game, here's a bit about that one:
Wake Up Call
Tumblr media
Pairing: Sam Winchester x F. Reader
Summary: Sam often gets up before you in the morning. He enjoys luring you into the waking world. (18+)
Finally, something for Sam, right? 😂 After writing Rest for Dean, equal parts hurt/comfort and fluff, I’ve been itching to do some “early morning” fluff for Sam…
👀 Sneak Peek
Unlike Dean, Sam isn’t one to be sentimental.
It doesn’t mean he doesn’t care. On the contrary, he hordes and treasures memories in his mind, rather than on his shelves.
It also means he’s not one to collect things just to have them. There has to be a practical use, like the way good books can be read again. Even his dad’s journal is a useful resource, not just a record of the man’s most significant words, and in some ways, his legacy.
Sam’s room is function, not fluff.
That is, until you invaded.
Tumblr media
Coming in December!

Of course we joke about johnny and his dog issues, but the real bitch that didn’t want ghost getting Riley was price. It took Simon nearly half a year of what he refuses to acknowledge as begging to convince his dad/captain to let him have a dog. “It’s good for morale!” “I’ll train him myself!” On and on until eventually price gave in
Price pretended not to like Riley for all of two weeks but after that he was literally making the then puppy his own special plate of bacon in the morning
“You never had a dog before, Simon.”
He knew Ghost wanted a dog. He’s talked about it before with a child-like eagerness. Price always dismissed the idea seeing that Ghost was never at his own flat, meaning that dog would probably be on base or at Price’s house. Which means Price himself would have a dog. He doesn’t want a dog.
But Ghost has talked about it, consistently, for months. He wanted a dog, badly, and Price was starting to feel bad about keeping him from getting one. So… he gave in.
“-and then I saw an ad about puppies for sell and-“
“Simon.”
Ghost immediately stopped talking, probably thinking Price was fed up with him talking about dogs and wanting one all the time.
“Son… you can get a dog.”
Ghost stared at Price, unblinking and unresponsive. Price opened his mouth but Ghost lunged across the table before he could say anything and knocked him out of his chair with a hug. Price groaned as Ghost thanked him profusely, hugging him tightly as he did. Price patted his back, god that hurt his back.
“You have to train it-“
“Of course!”
Price was heaved off the floor with ease, Ghost setting his chair back up before he ran out of the room shouting.
“I’M GETTING A DOG!”
“NO YOU’RE NOT-“
Price snorted as he heard Ghost and Soap bicker, sitting back in his chair. Hopefully he doesn’t regret this.

So I see a common head canon to explain why Sky can sleep in everyone's bed is that after his parents died the village as a whole raised him (I love this headcanon so much)
But that got me thinking. Would young Sky's toys be spread across every house? Would he have to go on a mini hunt across the whole village to try finding which house he left his favorite blanket? Who's cooking does he prefer? How much did people miss him spending the night when he joined the academy?
I just. I had feels with these thoughts, and wanted to share them with you because I know he's you most blorbo shaped boy
HELLO I LOVE THIS!!! That’s adorable actually. I love this so much.
In my head, the islands in the sky are a lot more populated and numerous than shown in the game because of game limitations. It’s a fully functioning society, and Skyloft is the biggest island and the main city, but there are a lot more. Still, I don’t imagine there’s a lot of surplus in supplies and resources. Everyone has to be careful and only use what they have to so that everyone will have enough.
If resources are delegated by household, it would make sense that Sky has to be passed around. No one family would be able to spare the extra food or clothes or toys to take care of him full time. Oh and once little Sky is old enough to really grasp the concept of scarcity, he might feel some guilt at using other families resources. As soon as any of them realize he’s feeling that though they would quickly put an end to it. Everyone there loves him like family.
Skyloft would probably have to have some sort of system for taking care of orphans and like getting a different amount of resources per household but I don’t feel like thinking about that system rn so the headcanon remains 😂
I see a lot of fics with Pipit as Links big brother figure, and I love that headcanon. I imagine he spent a lot of time there. And I think he would’ve spent a lot of time at Zelda’s house too.
Oooohhhhhhhh AH I can see a scene in my head right now. Sky’s at Pipit’s house and Mallara is getting the boys ready for bed but then Sky realizes he doesn’t have his favorite Stuffy, and he CANNOT sleep without it (it’s a Loftwing plush named Brenda because I’m in charge hehehehehe). Sky is distraught and so Pipit comforts him while Mallara goes from door to door trying to find Sky’s Brenda.
He’s so cutie patootie and I love him
