For me, the whole of the Task Two chapter from "Lightning Bolts and Capture Weapons" will live untethered in my mind. From the panic of the opening, the dread of realizing who's been taken, the grim determination and anger in all of the champions, Cedric's "fuck off" to Bag, Harry being a total BAMF, Hizashi jumping straight into hero mode, and then everyone just leaving as soon as everyone is accounted for. It's a phenomenal chapter from start to finish.
Yall are making me want to reread my own fics again
I do really love the second task even though it was kind of a bitch to write (and the fallout has been even more so I can assure you). It’s such a big pivotal moment where the kids realize all at once that not only are they not safe (which the dragons had been a pretty big clue for that anyway) but neither was anyone they cared about. They realized just how much the people running the game were prepared to take from them even if they claimed there were “failsafes” in place that none of the hostages were in “real danger”. And that’s the moment they realize they won’t it stand.

rewatched madoka magica again today bc i fucking hate myself and to absolutely no one’s surprise i went through all five stages of grief in a single evening
#let’s talk about sayaka miki for a second#genuinely the fact that her whole character is centered around tragedy almost to a shakespearean extent#she’s selfless and brave and values her justice and righteousness above all. calls herself an ally of justice#in fact i think it’s rather intriguing how her whole character is centered around “justice”#her story being a more twisted retelling of the original little mermaid#how she is initially portrayed as a very heroic and confident character even before becoming a magical girl. always shielding madoka#selling her soul to heal the boy she loved out of a selfless desire to see him well again#her being absolutely distraught abt being robbed of her humanity and betrayed by kyubey#she combats this harrowing realization by immersing herself in her duties not caring that she is slowly deteriorating in the process#becoming numb with pain and fighting recklessly and psychotically trying to drown out the pain#finally coming to the sickening conclusion that humanity doesn’t deserve her saving and she succumbs to a fate of her making#last words being “i was so stupid” which trumps her previous statement of “there’s no way i’d regret this”#ALSO? the fact that her costume and weapon are symbolic of a knight. she rly portrays this hero of justice who will protect and defend ☹️#i think abt the fact that homura said that sayaka’s wish was so selfless it was only a matter of time before she died#sayaka being the example of what happens to magical girls who go through the entire cycle and eventually become witches is so sad to me#genuinely just like. sick and twisted#very very fucked up.#characters who have their own misconstrued interpretation of “justice” or who are centered around justice in general.#you will always be dear to me.#sayaka reminds me a lot of akechi in some ways ngl#harboring an almost idealized vision of justice but it slowly rots and festers and corrupts their hearts the more immersed w it they become#actually losing their sanity when they fight bc of how much pain they’re in but refuse to acknowledge it until they break#refusing any help and wallowing in misery despite having ppl who love them and want to save them#last words are those expressing regret for being such a fool. for being ignoring#being used by yhe main villain as a stepping stone towards their true goal. they were merely a pawn#also doomed in every version of their reality. always doomed by the narrative no matter what choices they make#i have a type i fear#HAHAHAH ALSO the fact that they’re both dressed so regally compared to everyone else in their respective series#meant to portray them in a virtuous and princely light. only made more apparent by the sword being their weapon of choice#i’m gonna shut up now but they’re soo eerily similar its unnerving tbh 💀

One of the bonus sketches from manga Vol. 21. Looks like there's another one too but I haven't managed to find a full image of it yet.
I really like this one, not only because I'm pleased to see Hilmes feature but because of the composition. The shadowy, mad-looking Gotarzes, whose mind was addled by the influence of sorcery. Osroes, whose eyes betray the inhuman decision he made about the child he raised as his son and pretended to love. Andragoras, with darkened eyes, looming over Hilmes in the foreground. Of them all, Hilmes is the only one whose eyes are clearly visible/drawn normally, and even then it feels symbolic that his right eye is partially obscured on his burned side.
The dark and bloody history of the Parsian royal family literally looming behind him, its mark left on his face. I hope he can break free of it.

Despair // Night on the Galactic Railroad
'Campanella,' said Giovanni, sighing deeply, 'we're alone again. Let's stay together till the ends of the earth, okay? If I could be like that scorpion and do something for the benefit of all people, I wouldn't care if my body burnt up a hundred times over.' 'Me too,' said Campanella, his eyes welling with the clearest tears. 'But what is real happiness, Campanella?' 'Don't ask me,' he answered dreamily.

In regards to Narcissa, why can't she have both a hero AND a milf? She has two hands.
Inko Midoriya getting all of the scary dog privilege as she walks with her two girlfriends that can and will put any one in the ground.
But also Narcissa getting to experience true tender love for the first time in her like and getting to see Nemuri confident and powerful and unwilling to back down no matter what anyone says and having Inko brush her hair back from her face with aching gentleness and
Yeah this is definitely an option

Going against the grain, a Heroic Journey. With much to learn. A curious vitality. The Destined path. Moved by desire. Finding the Self within Self. Sacred intelligence. Emanating the light of the Sun. Shining in the unknown.

I reread the scene in CW&LB where they’re at the World Cup and Hizashi has to go through the wards and. Oough. I am so dead from this scene.
Just. The fact that they love Harry so much that they were willing to go through intense panic and pain just because they wanted them to? The emotional turmoil they endured just to do so? I am living for it.
They love Shouta with everything they have, but Harry somehow manages to be even more loved than that. Hizashi will go through that a million times just for Harry, and I love that so so so much.
Anyway I am so unwell about Hizashi and Harry
Hizashi and Harry's relationship in CW&LB is so important to me.
Because there was always going to be a close relationship between Harry and Shouta, always going to be that distant blood relation and the fact that Shouta was the one that saved him, but in Harry's mind Hizashi was the first person to truly chose him.
And in turn Hizashi saw this sad kid that reminded them so much of both their own childhood and Shouta's and decided that they would do anything for him. Would give him anything in their power. Would bring down the very stars themselves if Harry only asked for them.
So you could say I am also incredibly unwell about Harry and Hizashi
