thank you so much for sharing your story as well, @mrssantinni! all the personal experiences I have so far seen shared by fans are very heartwarming and, I dunno, just make me feel a little better about humanity even in such tiny part. I, too, am so grateful to the film team for putting something so comforting out into the world—a movie that’s culturally an underdog itself, about an underdog, that resonated with kids (and adults) in odd and/or hard circumstances. I have also considered checking out that group if I can get past my aversion to Facebook, since anonymity has been much healthier to me and I don’t want to be identified as “the one obsessed with that Disney movie” when I need to put my face out there. ooh, I wish you luck at D23! I’m only now starting my own collection but hope the 25th anniversary will bring even more special things, like a Milo and Kida collector doll set ♡

“so, why Atlantis?”

I shared some very quick and informal thoughts a while back on why I hoped enough children grew up with the movie (or are discovering it now) to be influenced by Kida despite her exclusion from the “Disney Princess” brand; or by Milo as an unconventional hero who might remind them of themselves. that post received a couple of standout personal additions from mutuals, so I thought I would share my own “Atlantis story” whether anyone asked for it or not, because it is a bit different. it’s a so-so sample of my writing to lead with and came out schmaltzier than intended; but it’s how my pen happened to hit the paper in the moment and shows pretty clearly my typical romanticism, for better or worse.

I was eight years old on opening day in 2001 and as ecstatic as a little girl could be. my mom and I had taken a day trip to see my dad, who out of the goodness of his heart had agreed to sit through a local children’s entertainer in the afternoon and then a Disney movie in the evening. but in between singing puppets and my difficulty keeping still and responding as expected to questions and social cues, his patience started wearing and my mom slipping into a helpless bystander role. when we got to the theater, I had a gut feeling nobody was in for a fun time.

“two adults, one child for Atlantis,” my dad groaned at the ticket window.

I felt I was sitting between one person having teeth pulled and another smiling for the most awkward photos of her life. my mom was always my animated movie buddy, so her silence especially was deafening. her chuckle at Milo in the boiler room was a pin dropping, and her breath in on Helga’s “ho, ho, ho” was a disquieting hiss.

…alright, my dad finally motioned as the Leviathan tore across the screen.

“they talk so fast, it’s hard for me to understand them. and there aren’t even any songs,” was the most explanation my mom would give. the ride home was long, silent, and pitch-black as I lay across the backseat. I wanted to know what happened to Milo, but the wooziness of shame swirling through me let me know that wanting wasn’t even worth it.

pin trading was at its peak the next year at Disney World, and I was on a mission to fill my new pink lanyard with all my favorite characters before the trip was done. in very little time I found myself gazing up at a cast member wearing a Milo pin, and I shocked myself how quickly I asked her for it. I hoped holding onto it would reassure me that that wonderful story and character would wait for me as long as I needed.

watching the movie in high school felt a bit like the very rare party I was lucky enough to inexplicably find myself. I loved what I saw, but I felt my simply being there was a fluke. I wondered at first why I struggled to enjoy beyond arm’s length, but the damage was still in effect. it only reminded me again what I wished every single day: that my brain had kept developing normally, and all the things my autism either distorted or outright forbid would have happened exactly as they were meant. and since attitudes toward special interests had far to go, what would have fed me soup and covered me in kisses at age six could only visit through the glass at sixteen.

the days of LiveJournal and early Tumblr and Instagram came and went, and “Disney adult” culture went from a trickle to a wave. I attended community college as an English major and met my sister-bestie @scp-113 there on Halloween 2013, she dressed as Violet Parr and I as Minnie Mouse. our Anna and Elsa cosplay just a month later on opening night of Frozen couldn’t have been more fitting. a decade later, she made my dream come true of finally seeing Disney World as an adult, and no planning could have prepared me for the personal growth that trip would inspire. I loved throwing my arms around Mirabel in the Magic Kingdom because of, not despite, the emotional control that had finally taken hold at thirty. I wouldn’t have traded that interaction for the one awaiting the costumed little girl right behind me. that realization shook me to the bone.

“don’t cry because it’s over. smile because it happened,” my dad would tell me countless times since childhood with only the best intentions. “I haven’t been able to stop smiling,” I told him week after week following my trip. falling asleep for months scrolling back through those four special days was the most satisfying thing ever.

then one night, deep within a Magic Kingdom dream like any other, there they were. Milo Thatch and Princess Kida, just as they appeared in the “rare character guide” videos I had watched before the trip many months ago. they were hugging a child who had just run up to meet them: a young girl who looked very familiar. that settles it, I thought. the circle had at last closed.

now about once a week, my darling pup hears, “ready for Atlantis?” or “ready for Milo?” and leaps to my side in bed as I start the movie on my laptop. indeed, it feels exactly like a big warm hug every time. the artistry, the story, the characters, the humor, the heart. Milo is every bit the hero I needed as an uncertain child who loved words and language but hated being different…but he’s the one I got as an adult finding peace with her brain and eager to keep chasing her dreams. I’m writing more original words every day, journaling again, and speaking and thinking more fluidly all because of jotting down random thoughts about this movie and liking how they sounded. I’ve also put aside the idea that the influencer path might bring me joy, and I feel comfortable online again and have met some great folks so far through fan works and discussions from silly to profound.

and so I thank that little voice that whispered for 23 years: “…Atlantis is waiting.”

Hello Kacian, long time not see you xD Now I understood why Sasuke was acting like asking for forgiveness. I know you will not scan/translate the entire thing and I understand your reasons, because I left the fandom for certain reasons tho, but can I ask you what Sarada says to Sasuke while poking him?

She says she will forgive him. She doesn’t care about the present. She’s just happy he’s actually there for her birthday.

Right before this, Sasuke was about to poke her, but Sarada counters and blocks it 😂

Little Meltan! Since someone asked about your favorite fire type, what's your favorite steel type Pokémon?

They were good friends with one from the mountains for some time, but sadly, they haven’t seen them in a while.

[kawee-chan]

@mrssantinni replied to your post: ………why do people hate Sarada so much??????

I dunno, but I guess that mainly people that hate her is because of her parents or because don’t liked the ending or have fear because she’s a woman and this can turn her in a damsel in distress or because she’s doesn’t a male Uchiha. Anyway I don’t love the ending as well and I don’t shipp SS. But although this, I don’t hate her. I can’t see reasons so far to hate her until now.

oh yeah same, after the shit show that sasuke pulled i don’t ship them either, let alone stand for how sarada came to be??? (the blank period anyway...that was pretty fucked up but correct me if i’m wrong).but like...i just digged a little more into it and its like....the writing FOR Sarada is what everyone hates??? she’s basically a plot device to keep that ship going and well there’s a lot of nasty words thrown in the mix but still....i feel like the character deserves better considering.....everything. 

but i also agree that the fandom hates cuz the character is an uchiha who is a girl, and there for they cant keep up with that uzumaki/uchiha yaoiz lulz in the next generation. i swear to gawd the female characters in this story get enough shit from the writing, the fandom treats them no better just siiiiighhh........

It's a dumb question I know, but Melmetal is the one that feed the smol Meltan? (Since it has the ability to create iron from nothing)

Not a dumb question at all! Usually, I give Meltan the scrap metal lying around the lab and storage downstairs (you get a lot more than you think you will when you work with Steel types), but occasionally Melmetal will make something for Meltan to eat. On most days, though, I provide most of the food for Meltan.
