#of heroics and healing

[dark-elf-writes]

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

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.

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.

very interesting to me that the big three of the current hero gen in mha - shouto, midoriya and bakugo - are often portrayed as also being the closest in a lot of fics bc it's like. you've got shouto's two best friends as a boy with a volatile personality fuelled by his blind ambition and desperation to be the best, and a boy whose quirk destroys his body. like if you combined two of shouto's best friends you'd get touya but we're just not supposed to redeem him. okay

HI I REALIZED SOMETHING THAT PROBABLY ISN’T INTENTIONAL WHILE LOOKING AT N IMAGES ON GOOGLE

Does this sound familiar

again probably not intentional but OH MY GOD I WILL SEE IT AS SUCH UNLESS IT GETS DENIED I love the parallels of how the normal Pokemon traditions become so warped and sad when its in the context of N in particular

[eye-of-yelough]

one thing you gotta know about me is i simply never see twists coming. i have whatever the opposite of pattern recognition is my brain simply doesn’t work that way. y’all actually make predictions when you’re engaging with stories? wack

I started getting into Heaven Official's Blessing, and the similarities between Xie Lian and Guda have me sobbing.

Both were seventeen when their lives were irrevocably changed forever. Kind and naive teens, with hope in their hearts of saving the world. Only to have it all thrown in their faces in the worst ways possible. Forced to become hardened and cruel when all they want to be is kind. Sacrificing so much, even parts of themselves, only for it to mean nothing to ungrateful masses.

Two people who have taught themselves to be overwhelmingly optimistic or be crushed with the absolute horror and trauma of all that they've endured.

All I can imagine is Xie Lian being summoned as a servant towards the beginning of Guda's journey. Seeing this poor kid put in this horrific situation in which they have to save the world or risk extinction, and them accepting it with absolutely resolve and unwavering determination. Looking at them and being reminded so much of himself and the words he once uttered so long ago.

"I wish to save the common people"

Remembering leaves a bitter taste in his mouth and thinks, 'Not this child. I won't let their journey turn out like mine'.

When the singularities are resolved and humanity restored, Xie Lian is desummoned back to his own world. He is left feeling sad having to leave Guda (who he has come to see as his own child), but proud about how it all ended without them losing it all. He is happy that Guda's journey ends in an optimistic note.

Until he is resummoned during the lostbelts, and is met with the broken down shell of who Guda used to be. He is beyond horrified and devastated at the realization that not only did Guda's journey continue, but had gone down a much more horrific path than his own did.

Nothing is worse than thinking you've saved someone, only to realize that you didn't and that their fate was far darker than yours ever was.

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

natsuo is such an underrated character. he was ignored for his entire childhood because he didn’t have the right quirk he’s fiercely loyal to his dead brother like I think he’s one of if not the first person in the series to mention touya and he’s angry about his death!!! he holds endeavour accountable!!!

he remembers! he grieves! he's the first to say touya's name and he won't stop saying it just bc it makes everyone else uncomfortable!

[serenofroses]
