Doctor Who: The Impossible Planet & The Satan Pit / The Legend of Ruby Sunday

[fairsweetlonging]

imagine if after the transmigration shen qingqiu became a combination of shen yuan and shen jiu, not in a "second person living in my head" kind of way, but a "this house is haunted and carries the echoes of the dead" kind of way; imagine shen yuan having nightmares about a house, a fire, a faceless boy behind a door he can't remember; imagine him having flashes of emotions he doesn't understand, rage at a name he doesn't recognize, helplessness when yue qingyuan apologizes for something he won't mention, nausea when ning yingying says the name "a-luo"; imagine parts of his own self have changed too, how he now likes bows in his hair, pretty flowers and flowing robes, but can no longer stand a stranger's touch, a man's touch, yet he longs for the brothels, but never sexually, only fondly, like there's something there he misses. there are many empty spaces in his heart where he feels something is missing

I've seen a few times in Dp x DC fics when Danny is first introduced to the Justice League and meets Captain Marvel, that they both know the other is actually a kid and not an immortal being, but pretends to be old friends so as to not be outed and tricks the JL together.

Now I bring you, neither of them know the other is a kid and both Actually think the other is immortal but still somehow ends up pretending to be besties. How? Time travel.

This is their actual first meeting, but in the future, Danny will time travel back to the past and meet past Champions of Magic. Billy, as the current Champion of Magic, has inherited the knowledge of these meetings, but thinks they happened chronologically = Phantom is immortal. So he use that knowledge to bullshit his way into pretending he's been all those old Champions and greets Danny as an old friend to sell his Old as Shit act before the JL.

Danny in turn doesn't know about those past meetings but he Does know about time travel. So when Captain Marvel greets him like an old friend and start recounting their different meetings throughout history, Danny assumes he's gonna time travel and do all those things one day (accurately). But he's pretending to be immortal, not a time traveling teen, and so has to pretend that he Totally Remembers That One Time In Greece, Yup!

How Childhood Trauma Can Show Up In Adulthood

Childhood trauma can have a deep and lasting impact on your development, some scenarios we would not even consider to be " trauma" but it comes down to how you as a child perceived the situation. To add to that, you could have had a great childhood factually, or by your understanding, because it is all you knew. I’ll give you an example, do you find yourself putting everyone else before you? Maybe when you were little you had an experience with a parent where they put someone else before you in a situation that was significant to you at the time, and that feeling got registered in your subconscious. Maybe you got rewarded for the experience or reprimanded. It could have been very harmless. You may not even remember unless you start to think about it. None the less the root of a lot of our triggers, habits and insecurities boil down to our childhood experiences, that stay buried in our subconscious and often manifesting in various ways during adulthood.

You have a have a hard time controlling your feelings. You might get super angry or not feel anything at all.

You are scared to fail.

You blame yourself for your mistakes and bad choices from your past and have a hard time forgiving yourself.

You worry about what other people think about you or in general and may feel scared a lot.

You are too clingy or too distant and cant find a balance.

You don't trust yourself to make decisions and need constant validation or someone else to make decisions for you.

You feel really sad and down most of the time.

You suffer from negative self talk, are very hard on yourself and really believe those things to be true.

You constantly criticize others.

You need external validation to feel accepted.

You are always anxious.

You are hypersensitive to criticism.

You are terrified of change.

You find it hard to take compliments and truly believe you are not worthy.

You find it hard to keep good relationships because you're scared of getting hurt and feel like you cant get close to others.

You try to be perfect and want to do everything perfectly because you think it will help avoid bad things from happening.

You might eat too much or too little because you are feeling bad or want to control things.

You can't stop thinking about bad stuff that happened before and might have nightmares or feel like they're living it again.

You may feel like they're not really in their body or like things around them aren't real because of what happened in the past.

You avoid things because they remind you of bad stuff that happened.

Sometimes people stay away from things that remind them of bad stuff that happened.

You might have more health problems like headaches or stomachaches.

You do things that hurt you or others, and you don't even realize it because you learned it from when you were young.

You might work extra hard to be successful because you want others to like you or because you don't feel good about yourself.

You rather be alone because you feel embarrassed or worried about what others think.

You try really hard to control everything in your life.

You water yourself down and put everyone else before you.

"just a sketch" she said, like a liar- at least I didn't do a full painting lol

Alrighty now time to justify my instrument choices:

Akiren for piano: Piano is a versatile instrument! And, y'know, wildcard stuff. Pretty self-explanatory

Akechi for violin: Violin, while not as versatile as piano, can still do a lot- and has a very extensive classical repitoire; so, still wildcard applicable. Also insert joke here about first violins and Akechi probably fits

Sumire for cello: gonna be honest, I gave Sumi the leftover instrument. But! I think cello is quite a graceful instrument, so it still fits! Also it's funny to me when short people play big instruments (hc that Sumi also plays double bass for extra laughs)

Kinda like a time zone for the aging.

does vale just have like wildly low emotional intelligence to be this delusional about their fallout (he’s ignoring like. large swaths of context for 2015 i think. like it’s crazy that his and marc’s stories are so wildly mismatched not just in terms of content but also in terms of TIMELINE) or are his unique trauma responses to a tough childhood and fame and competing in god’s most awful death sport just insanely damaging. wait just answered my own question. um.

Do you have any tips on drawing faces? 

I AM REALLY BAD AT EXPLAIning and teaching in general cuz most of the times Idk What The Fuck I am doing, but I do hope that this quick guide can help a little!!

These are mostly stuff I observed when looking at other ppl's art + learning my own style!

If it also helps, and this is MAJORLY a personal preference/learning method of mine, do not take the guidelines too seriously! They help u figure out the body and placement of things, sure, but if u hold urself to draw Perfectly over them, then I think it just- limits how stylized or expressive ur art can be Idk, at least thats how it felt for me cuz- as u can see, in no time I am following the lines I drew, but I did add them anyways cuz they help me remember what I am trying to achieve! So for example, even if I drew over the red line a little, the eye is still not obnoxiously close to the ear, which was exactly what I was trying to avoid :)

Hope u can take smtng good from this! Happy drawing <3

I was just thinking about just how significant 'this place will become your tomb' is as a statement. Like not even in the context of the album itself and the imagery but in the context of love.

A tomb as a physical place of rest where loved ones come to honour the dead and when those folks are gone too, as a place where they're loved by humanity centuries later because humans are wired so deeply to see and know and care and love.

Does your heart not also become a tomb for a beloved? Wherein you carry the memory and essence of that person? Is not the act of carrying someone into the future who cannot experience that future themselves also an act of love?
