looking at some takes on characters or relationships or scenes in which things happen between them and just thinking,

How in the hell are people interpreting it this way??? But then i step back and realize that the story or character in question is fundamentally and extraordinarily different from the average person's life experience and I go,

ah,

you guys just... don't have a deep enough understanding of trauma responses...

Romeo and Dial drunk??

Aka me relating every Noah Kahan song to & Juliet

"I'm rememberin' I promised to forget you now"

Juliet killing herself was supposed to be the end of the play. The end of Romeo and Juliet, as people. Their relatives would move on, and Shakespeare would write another tragedy. The tale of two lovers would be forgotten, if it wasn't for Anne.

"But it's rainin', and I'm callin' drunk"

Romeo is dead, or was. He doesn't know. All he knows is that he has to get to his wife, who rains on his parade by announcing her engagement, and he's banished from the wedding. He still manages to sneak in, a dumb act for love, something you'd do if you were drunk.

"And my medicine is drownin' your perspective out"

The poison that ends all. All Romeo could see was a dead Juliet and a vial of poison, there was only one solution in his eyes.

"So I ain't takin' any fault"

"I forgive you." Romeo doesnt hate Juliet, he loves her too much, but she doesn't love him back. Someone who loves you would kill themselves for you. He acted out of love, not out of rationality, he couldn't have known she was still alive.

"Am I honest still? Am I half the man I used to be?"

Who is Romeo Montague besides his imago? How can he be his real self if he doesn't know who he is? He wants to be better, for Juliet, but he can't even fight for her until the quill breaks. He hasn't moved on since he woke up, but Juliet apparently has, so has he changed that much by dying?

"I doubt it, forget about it, whatever"

Juliet is marrying Frankie and he can't do anything except letting her go. He's alive! He should be celebrating and moving on! Juliet deserves that.

"It's all the same, anyways"

Romeo and Juliet are destined to die next to eachother over and over again. It can't be rewritten.

"I ain't proud of all the punches that I've thrown"

Romeo isn't a fighter, he's a lover, but love is like a drug. Love can make you do crazy things. He didn't want to kill Tybalt, but he had no choice, right?

"In the name of someone I no longer know"

He's banished. He lost the love of his life, twice. He can't go anywhere. Everything he loves has been taken from him. Everyone he fought for wouldn't fight for him.

"For the shame of being young, drunk, and alone"

He's alone. He has been alive for less than 20 years and never felt like he was actually living. He's to deep in to change.

"Traffic lights and a transmitter radio"

Paris is far from Verona, but Romeo persisted, even if he didn't know Juliet's whereabouts, he wasn't stopping for anything.

"I don't like that when they threw me in the car"

I gave your name as my emergency contact"

A friendly carriage driver was his only ally. If it wasn't for him he would've never found Juliet. He didn't know what the guy's deal was but he was just as interested as Romeo himself in them getting back together.

"Honey, it rang and rang, even the cops thought you were wrong for hangin' up"

Juliet didn't feel the same. Romeo felt rejected. How could she move on so fast and leave him in the dust after all he did for her? That went against his, and William's plans. He even apologized!

"I dial drunk, I'd die a drunk, I'd die for you"

And he was sure she'd do the same.

About a month ago my new coworker told me he didn't like LoK (that's fine). When I asked why he said it reminded him too much of The Last of Us 2. And I was like ??????? HuH???? So I asked him to elaborate, and due to time constraints (and maybe him just....refusing to really elaborate????) the most I could get out of him was "Korra/Ellie choosing not to kill Kuvira/Abby at the end" and that was "bad."

AND THAT'S IT! Nothing else, no expansion. So I have to tell y'all, my ass hasn't been ok since. It's keeping me up at night. I'm trying to figure out what he means. Cause the math ain't mathing lemme tell you. I think it's all bullshit TT0TT Like this man had a vision, but god does he need some fucking glasses.

I haven't been this inside my own head since I was debating with air about P5. TT0TT

Okay so I think I just overshared to the Max to a tattoo artist i've never met 🤣

She asked for descriptions of our dream tattoo and I went way over the text limit when explaining not one but two ideas for her over ig dms 😆🤣😅

[phagodyke]

for such a supposedly major fan of the national I sure mishear a lot of their lyrics 💀

[stray-dude]

hahaha i had a dream

[cepheusgalaxy]

So yea I found an old notebook that I used to write stories on a few years back and BOY after page like 8? it was all story notes. AALLLL story notes and a few chapters for story ideas. After the TWOTHT Purge™️ (lmao) I had forgot all of them but some are nice. I can pick a few points and apply to my current wips. The notebook had also a part FILLED with paper sheets with doodles, drawing pratice and character design (this was what, like 5-3 years ago? I still do that lmao so i was surprised to find them that way. I guess old habits die hard)

It's nice because it just makes me rlly happy of how much I've grown as an artist! My sketches back then were more stiff (im no gesture master but its so much more Fluid now) and awkward and cluttered and messy. I didn't know what I was doing! I still don't, mostly, but I've got better.

The notes and scribbles also had multiple notes and planning for TWOTHT which is so GREAT. Its so good to find notes and sources from the start of whatever I'm trying to reboot. For example I found:

A world map

Notes on the possible scientific names of the species ("homo ignis")

A political map with the territorries of the races drawn out

A design tryout for Zaire (the MC)

A character profile for Zaire

Notes for characters I didn't know existed

And bonuses:

Some kind of existencial crisis I was having back then (i remember that a bit, actually, but its all foggy so these registers are funny to find) with goals to myself

A book wishlist (threw it away since i managed to read them all--its nice knowing i managed doing that *high-fives my past self*)

MANY queer pride flags. More specifically, aegosexual and lesbian pride flags. And a bunch of silly phrases and lyric lines. I guess they were really special for me back then

Anyways, finding all of this brings me a lot of joy, and also a bunch of stuff I can use, creatively speaking! ^^
