gah there's just something so good about dictator villains capturing the rebel leader who's been giving subjugated people hope and just... breaking them in order to break the spirits of the people they've conquered
even better when the people don't take it as the loss of all hope, but instead use it as a driving factor to rally and fight
#it's also incredibly important that the rebel is not killed but broken because the aim is to humiliate them and scare the people#not make a martyr#(mostly for whumpy reasons) its also important that a lot of their torment is public#whump prompt#team leader whump#fantasy whump

#poorly drawn mdzs#mdzs#wen ning#wei wuxian#Ignore how Wen Ning's hair looks here because I messed it up. Let's pretend he just sported a different hair style for a brief moment.#I am not exactly great at consistency but I am trying very hard to work on that (immediately messes up again).#Absolutely *love* how Wen Ning clearly remembers and admires WWX...who does *not* recognize him.#This is the best day for Wen Ning and it means *nothing* to WWX. A painful one-sided crush made worse.#It is bittersweet to realize that we care about someone more than they care about us. Sometime we pour love into a relationship-#-with someone who just can't reciprocate. It isn't always a conscious things either. Some people just aren't aware we care.#And painfully - so painfully - You can't make them aware. No act of kindness or gift or self sacrifice will make someone care about you.#You can martyr yourself for someone and they will continue on unchanged.#I think a lot about the parallels between WN and LWJ. Not foils - just reflections. A theme repeated.#People who give so much of themselves to someone who doesn't have the capacity to give any part of themself away.#I will die on the hill of 'Wen Ning would be the love triangle romance if that trope wasn't being avoided'.#And to be honest - thank the stars above that is the case. I do not know any good love triangles in media.#We are skipping some of the sad Jiang Cheng content because I really want to finish season 2 before May.#Sorry JC emo moment lovers...I'll deliver another time.

Use your head, artilleryman. This railroad is my bread and butter. My veins! Blowing things up... It doesn't matter. The inquisitor will come.

#Doodles#Handplates#UT#Fellplates#Gaster#Papyrus#Sans#Squeeze him - he makes a squeaky toy noise#Everyone needs to bite Gaster! He doesn't yield like flesh so it probably doesn't even hurt right? Yeahhhh he'll be fiiiine#There is something very funny to me about him just sitting there and taking it tho lol - feeds into his martyr play ♪#As if I don't already have a favourite martyr hmmm don't worry about it lol#What was he even doing why is he just letting 2-P bite him lol#Socialization? That's not a good thing to just let him do! He's still got a young mind! Boundaries are important#He does offer a way out - hehe ♫ - but he doesn't enforce it! You're setting them up for failure#Hehehehe#The bone gift was fun to doodle hehe ♪ He leaves it with him and it goes completely untouched while his arm is covered in teeth-marks pfft#Even with Papyrus a bit more unruly I still like to imagine he acts mean in largely harmless ways haha#Like yeah he's being naughty and biting when he knows better and offered other options - Gaster. Gentle enforcement - but he's not Hurting#He's not using his entire bite force - probably lol or he's just got weak little baby bites (though those can be quite painful!)#Sans on the other hand would absolutely go 100% full power - and still only do 1HP lol what an unfortunate design quirk for him#If only he had a jaw he could open! He'd bite the heck outta Gaster! Alas#I do like to imagine Fellplates!Sans has just fast-tracked to classic's conclusion of ''You suck and I hate you. Die'' about Gaster lol#Even the possibility of not being mean to him is so alien! What do you /mean/ not hurt you?? Do you know who you're talking to??#He'll find another way to mess with him in good time haha

This goes hard as hell they just can't stop making him look badass, huh?
#luigi mangione#he's going to get epsteined in prison and become martyr and they'll be scratching their heads wondering why#or they'll hand him the death penalty to make a point to the public about killing rich people and make him even cooler

Mr. Andrew Hozier byrne sat down and said 100 years from now the Empire will have fallen and because of that we have hope. The fruits of our revolution are inevitable, our dreams are inevitable and propel us forward and because of that we have hope for an easier world!
Yes the despair and yes the hope 😭 the sun will dawn on better times
#oh it’s giving me chills#the martyrs of our revolution will power the world we make!!!!#the sun is coming up on a dream!!#happy hozier Friday all#dev speaks#hozier#empire now#unheard

Ford would be the type of guy to go “I’m so dark and evil,,,u don’t know what I’ve done,,,,I’m a monster,,,,” and Stan would just smack him upside the head like stfu and drink your coffee
Is this an Epic: The Musical reference. Coz Would You Fall In Love With Me Again is exactly this. And the song itself is SOOO stancest coded don't even get me started.
I think it also plays into Ford's need for narrative relevancy. He was so goddamn sure he's the main character for 30+ years, and then realizes it was Stan all along. Well, what's left for him then? If he's not the hero of the story, then... he must be it's villain. The one who ruined hero's life, the one who needs to be punished for his wrongdoings.
And Stan won't have any of that bullshit lmao he just wants his honeymoon in Arctic Ocean and that's it
#stancest#stein yaps#stein answers#i should make another post about ford's borderline masochistic tendencies#he wants to be a martyr sooo baaaaad#maybe when my head works better

#supernatural#sam winchester#hey. i wrote a page of concept notes before i started painting this. with the thought 'i should make a painting about dean :)' ...#so it is inevitably of sam LOL. i was gonna paint deans face reflected in the blade but it seemed too on the nose. and confusing. and work.#anyway. my non-descriptive explanation notes read:#this is about the tension present in season 5 with the voicemail in mind.#how with what sam knows; the only way it could end is :#to die a monster at the hands of his brother - whether they win or not. (either in the big fight or he gets put down for being a bloodsucki#or to die a martyr - proving his humanity by saving the world and slaying the beast (himself and the devil. 2 birds 1 stone)#ghostart#i got my hands stuck doing the pose ref for the rosary. i truly suffer for my art ... oh and the 18 hours of painting too i guess#hm. 'bloodsucking freak' got cut off 4 tags up. whatever

Zionist Occupation be like, the tank we sent after this sixty-one-year-old man couldn't take him out. Then we sent foot soldiers after him when he was alone with his arm blown off and he nearly blew them up. Then we sent a drone to come up behind him while he was out of ammo and he turned around with a piece of wood off the ground and nearly took that out too. In conclusion, he was a coward that hid in the tunnels—
#he's the kind of guy american soldiers wish they were#instead of just a bunch of pimped-out murderers getting blown up invading other people's countries#they should make a movie about him#lmao they're like 'he TORTURED AND KILLED PALESTINIANS who had turned informant and collaborators' okay?? and?? hope they suffered??#the kind of vermin that would sell out their own people to these maniacs shouldn't stay breathing#glory to the resistance#glory to the martyrs#free palestine#yahya sinwar#knee of huss

so is it just a weird coincidence that blinken suggested al-jazeera limit coverage of bombings in gaza and then idf targets the family of al-jazeera's bureau chief in gaza
#disgusting#same energy as bbc making an article about whether hamas builds tnnels underneath hospitals and schools and#then israel bombing a hospital one day later#feels like theyre gleefully announcing their war crimes#death to israel#free palestine#glory to the martyrs#gaza#palestine

"Curly enabled Jimmy's depravity and could've done something about it" and "Curly was already a victim of psychological abuse and manipulation from Jimmy pre-crash" are two sentences that can and Should coexist btw
#People really be out here saying curls was unaffected by yimpy#when he twisted his words during the party before Everyone and made him feel guilt over his insecurities in private#and literally caused him to have a mini breakdown right before the crash#Why do you think the heavy breathing sounds were there after jim told him he'd take care of it huH.#Why do you think the screen faded to black. my man Literally Froze.#Mouthwashing#Jimmy#Captain Curly#Luke rants#YES curly SHOULD HAVE NOTICED. He should've DONE THINGS.#But Jimmy was playing him like a fiddle too and had probably done so all his life if they go as far back as we're lead to believe#insidious little jimbecile making himself the martyr in curly's eyes and he believed it with his whole chest#But Curly was still an adult with braincells and if he wouldn't act against the abuse towards him he shouldve at least acted against Anya's#like bfksjdks SEE BOTH THINGS CAN BE TRUE AT THE SAME TIME

This isn't gonna make a lot of sense but imma need you to stay with me here.
Something has been working about this panel for a bit and I'm finally able to put words to it. There's something here about the way Atsushi says "he can win this" and not "we can win this". What's especially interesting to me is the fact that Fyodor just told him that he has the ability to kill a God and yet he makes no movement upon Aku's arrival to fight especially after seeing him go toe to toe with Ame-no-gozen.
Now going back to this panel
I'm hoping this is Akutagawa's attempts to knock some sense into Atsushi (hopefully not an amnesia trope but alas signs are pointing to it) so that he'll join the fight.
#something something Atsushi doesn't believe he has a right to fight for his life#but is willing to martyr himself for his friends#something something Aku being like shut the hell up weretiger we've already done this before#something something time skip and we get to “just the two of us”#does anyone understand what im saying here????#am i making any sense#bsd 119#bsd manga#bsd#bungo stray dogs#bungou stray dogs#bungo sd#bungou sd#bsd atsushi#bsd akutagawa#akutagawa ryunosuke#atsushi nakajima#cory talks bsd
