#oh dear this got long!

Beloved Mar, I saw your tags on that post! is there any Suri lore you've been wanting to drop 👀

My dearest PD! Thank you for this ask and thinking of Suri!

As Christmas is right around the corner and it is the holiday season here, I’ve been thinking of Suri Christmas lore

Suri is not religious, and isn’t a follower of any religion (though exposed to several through her life and she appreciates them), Christmas is special to her and mainly for the sense of community and the celebration of it all

Before moving back to Wayhaven, when she lived in Paris, she spent so much time walking through the streets to appreciate the light displays and festivals and going to the Christmas Markets - depending on the year either alone or with a boyfriend or friends who were free

Back to Wayhaven, she reminisced on her childhood celebrations with the Andersons, how magical they made the season. It’s all changed since their passing, and since joining the PD, she and Tina would spend their holiday shifts together, usually around the Cornerstones to take a look at the lights (they’d rank them and assign an unofficial winner, and it wasn’t never Friedman)

However, usually in secret, she’ll walk to the church for the Christmas midnight service, and stand in the foyer. Looking in to observe, feel some sense of togetherness (even if at times she still feels like an outsider) - I imagine that one of these years, Adam witnesses this little excursion

But now! With Nate, and Unit Bravo, she’s going to help decorate a tree for the first time in a long time. And host a holiday party, with Nate. Suri is very excited about this. It will he the first time she’s celebrated with a family structure, at least from the last time she was with the Andersons

Bonus, she’ll get tipsy on eggnog which will be fun

Bonus Bonus, she always kissed someone at might on New Years, and she’s looking forward to kissing Nate every year 🎉

messy doodles plus with some picked ramblings with them as i process, learn, and progress. yes only some out of many. i talk far too much. i missed so much too im just too tired to talk abt those aspects rifht now

[acediaedeus]

this does contain them sweet

SPOILERS

what I find really upsetting about Ichigo’s dynamic with his friends/family/mentors is how they treat the fact that he’s part-Hollow. especially when it comes to the Visored and Orihime.

bc yeah, the Visored did struggle with their Hollows, bc they already lived hundreds of years without that aspect. they were comfortable with their shinigami existence, but then this hollowfication bullshit drops on their heads and suddenly they’re not only barely in control of themselves, constantly in a fight with an inner “demon”, but also there’s no one to support them AND they’re getting fucking exiled and then they exist as this tightly knit community of eight for a fucking century with no one to understand them but each other. I’d hate the Hollow in me too, probably.

BUT, then there’s this fresh guy, that hasn’t accepted the fact that he’s now an amalgamation of a million different things, including something that he has been told he has to fight and exterminate, that they have to teach to manage the hollowfication bullshit™️ so what do we do? correct, scare the shit out of him and present existing with a Hollow as amensalism (one is harmed, one is unaffected) or parasitism (one benefits, one is harmed) when it’s more like commensalism (one benefits, one is unaffected), in which the shinigami is clearly the one who’s benefiting from this.

(although we could argue that for the Visored this is a symbiotic relationship in which both are getting harmed, but even then the shinigami still gains benefit and the Hollow gets nothing but hatred, so like, fuck them, lol (I’m advocating for inner-Hollow rights 💀🙏🏻)).

biology lesson out of the way, they essentially do not teach Ichigo anything that would bring long-term benefits (we see this when Ichigo is unable to complete his training with Squad 0, bc he has no fucking idea who Zangetsu (or he himself) actually is (this is, of course, in part his quincy power’s doing, but I wouldn’t say his supposed “mentors” helped much).

in conclusion what does Ichigo get out of this? self-hatred and the habit to suppress what is, whichever way you look at it, a big part of his being, thus blocking himself and Zangetsu from reaching their full potential.

but I guess you can’t teach lessons you haven’t learnt yourself, so there is that with the Visored.

now onto my dear Orihime, who I love dearly (this is a disclaimer). for someone who, supposedly, loves Ichigo more than anything and who we have to take seriously as not only just a potential love-interest, but the actual, one-and-only lover, she is a little bit too scared of Ichigo.

this, of course, for me, begs the question of how am I supposed to accept a love-interest who is consistently terrified of the mc? not a single battle with Orihime present (and Ichigo using the mask) without her shaking in fear and having to be reminded by others (who have known him for much less time than she has), that not only is it still Ichigo in front of her, but he’s also fighting and pulling out the mask he himself doesn’t like much, in order to protect her.

it’s plain and simple upsetting how there’s absolutely no one to accept and embrace the essence of Kurosaki Ichigo. everyone around him wants the shinigami and human in him, no one is interested in the Hollow (except for *ahem* Grimmjow *ahem*), all they do is reject and cower and isn’t that fucking hypocritical after hiding behind his back and begging him to save them?

everyone around Ichigo just really pisses me off with their constant whining. I feel like the only ones who love and cherish Ichigo for the absolute gem of a person he is are Chad and the fucking Arrancars 💀🙏🏻

as I mentioned in the ALT to the last photo in this parade of idiocy: trying to separate and think of Hollow Ichigo and Ichigo as two different entities is crazy and delusional behaviour, bc we have been told countless times, that a person’s inner Hollow is a manifestation of all repressed emotions and traits that they view as unsavoury. which for Ichigo happened to be aggression, cruelty, being merciless and thirst for bloody battles.

let me remind everyone that you cannot truly love a person w/o accepting and acknowledging all their flaws (including yourself).

this is not me trying to say Orihime doesn’t love Ichigo, it’s not really about the characters, more so the writing. I am actively trying to square up with Tite Kubo. for many reasons, but this is one of the ones I pay most attention to.

Ichigo is someone who is in perfect control of himself, who protects no matter what, bc even when he turned into the vasto lorde (after getting his heart ripped out of his chest) it was all his Hollow, yet it still carried out the mission of protection seamlessly, that’s how strong his will is. Kurosaki Ichigo deserves ppl who actually love him around, thank you.

thanks for coming to this ted talk, love y’all!

Wait/Save the last dance for me

It began as a post about 'wait' for @i-am-the-oyster then it became to post about all the things between waiting and disillusion because we've talking about it with @thewalrusespublicist. And then it became to this mess with dances, waits, leaves and come backs - but it's organized chaos, trust me, and it's like a really dance.

So I wait and in a while I will see my true love smile

(A World Without Love, 1958/63)

I’ll wait until tomorrow Till you come my way That’s why I sit here Alone and I pray… But I’ll wait till tomorrow Through a thousand setting suns I’ll wait till tomorrow If tomorrow ever comes…

(I’ll Wait Till Tomorrow)

Wake up in the morning I don’t feel blue ’Cause I know I got you

(Because I Know You Love Me So, circa Jan 1958)

Well, she was just seventeen, you know what I mean And the way she looked was way beyond compare So how could I dance with another? When I saw her standin' there Well, she looked at me and I could see That before too long I'd fall in love with her 'Cause she wouldn't dance with another When I saw her standin' there

(I Saw Her Standing There, 1962/1963, Please Please Me)

If somebody tries to take my place Let's pretend we just can't see his face In this world there's nothing I would rather do I've discovered I'm in love with you 'Cause I'm happy just to dance with you

(I’m Happy Just to Dance with You, 1964, A Hard Day’s Night)

There's no fun in what I do when she's not there I wonder what went wrong, I've waited far too long I think I'll take a walk and look for her

(I Don’t Want To Spoil The Party, 1964/65, Beatles For Sale)

It's been a long time, now I'm coming back home I've been away now, oh, how I've been alone Wait till I come back to your side We'll forget the tears we've cried … I feel as though you ought to know That I've been good, as good as I can be And if you do, I'll trust in you And know that you will wait for me

(Wait, 1965, Rubber Soul)

When your prized possessions Start to weigh you down Look in my direction I'll be 'round, I'll be 'round When your bird is broken Will it bring you down? You may be awoken I'll be 'round, I'll be 'round

(And Your Bird Can Sing, 1966, Revolver)

Now, Honey Pie, you are making me crazy I'm in love but I'm lazy So, won't you please come home? Come, come back to me, Honey Pie <…> To be where you belong Honey pie, come back to me

(Honey Pie, 1968, The Beatles/White Album)

Who knows how long I've loved you You know I love you still Will I wait a lonely lifetime If you want me to - I will

Do you, don't you want me to love you? I'm coming down fast but I'm miles above you Tell me, tell me, tell me, come on tell me the answer You may be a lover but you ain't no dancer

(Helter-Skelter, 1968, The Beatles/White Album)

Many times I've been alone and many times I've cried Anyway you'll never know the many ways I've tried But still they lead me back to the long winding road you left me standing here a long long time ago Don't leave me waiting here lead me to your door

(The Long And Winding Road, 1969, Let It Be)

Anyway you’ve always known, the many ways I’ve tried

(The Long And Winding Road, 2003, Let It Be…Naked)* *remember, Paul in 1969 didn't choice the song's take, it did Spector, Klein - whoever it was, but not Paul, maybe they took wrong take, who knows)

All these years I've been wandering around Wondering how come nobody told me All that I was looking for was somebody who looked like you!*

(I've Got A Feeling, 1969)

*I don't know why nobody told you How to unfold your love I don't know how someone controlled you

(While My Guitar Gently Weeps, 1968, White Album)

When you told me, you didn't need me anymore Well, you know I nearly broke down and cried When you told me, that you didn't need me anymore Well, you know I nearly fell down and died Oh! Darling, if you leave me I'll never make it alone Believe me when I tell you I'll never do you no harm (Believe me, darling!)

(Oh! Darling, 1969, Abbey Road)

Get back to where you once belonged Get back, Jo Jo

Playing bloodborne pvp for the first time in literal months feels like what I imagine getting a full spa treatment does to most ppl

[devotedlystrangewizard]

the school arc to me is so good because it drags ciel out of his position as a powerful figure and literally places him in the shoes of the person he could have been. the circus arc ALSO drags him out of his position as big bad queens watch dog/head of the phantomhive estate but the school arc feels like a mockery of a future that never was. this is what he could have been had his parents not died. and even then its NOT because he will never be that kid.

he never was.

obsessed w the tags on ur last reblog

Omgg, thank you haha, it was a quality post so I just had to appreciate it in full force 😂❤️

Can‘t believe someone would actually enjoy my yapping :,D

[indecisive-dizzy]

Hi bestie!! :D

If you want to, can you share more about the Phineas and Ferb Welcome Home au?

Definitely!! gah this au is so!! Silly! and wholesome! man I was thinking about sending another ask to you but I forgor :/ curse my adhd brain lol

Anywhoo hmm let's see what I got! ,,,

A lot. I got a Lot haha,,

And we'll start with Families!

Wally and Barnaby, ofc, were adopted by Home when they were younger. He's a single parent who is very supportive of his boys' summer endeavors

Julie lives with her three older siblings! Franny is the only one still in high school. Bea and Jonesy have jobs. Oh her and Frank are still besties! Mostly when Julie goes over to Wally's she's got Frank with her

Frank's got both his parents, his dad is Brazilian and his mom is American. His parents are great (especially his dad, an absolute sweety) no one knows why this kid is such a grump lol. Also Julie is over a lot for sleepovers.

Eddie has a single mom. This kid is such a Mama's boy I can imagine him mentioning her at least once every "episode." She's a great southern mom but can come off as intimidating at times (it's the Mama Bear energy)

Sally has parents but they're irrelevant mostly. She's on her own a lot bc they work pretty much all the time.

Poppy also has parents but they're probably seen once lol. They maybe sheltered her a little too much as a kid and is trying to make up for it by "getting her out there" this summer. Speaking of,,

My brain Exploded when you said Poppy was the kid's babysitter! Her parents def shoved her into it when they were talking to Home about how he needed a sitter.

How I think it goes is Home leaves, leaving Poppy in charge. The gang arrives, and Wally says the iconic "I know what we're going to do today" (order varies) and then Sally shows up. She says hi to Poppy real quick before trying to stop the kids or bust them. Poppy leaves, mentally leaving Sally in charge bc she trusts her to keep the kids safe. So on and so forth!

Ok few more things, how the kids feel about Sally!

Wally is neutral, doesn't understand what she's on about but doesn't mind.

Barnaby thinks her attempts to bust them are hilarious and is constantly poking fun at her.

Frank has beef and sticks his tongue out/blows raspberries at her whenever she tells them to stop doing something.

Julie thinks she's cool and tries to get her to have fun. She's usually the one to drag Sally into their shenanigans where she'll enjoy herself.

Eddie is scared of her. He finds her intimidating and loud and is scared she's gonna get him trouble with his mama.

Overall none of them actively hate her. they're just kids and she's a teen trying to rain on their parade.

Gah ok one more for Howdy

My guy has no "real" trauma. his childhood was fine, he doesn't get along with most his family but that's bc he's a prick. He takes Every Minor Inconvenience and makes it sound tragic like the dramatic worm he is.

He really only gets along with his nephews, Seeya, and his Aunt Toodaloo. Oh and Beeya's the mayor... yeah Howdy doesn't like him but still favors him more over Latter. Toodaloo sends him money that helps fund his schemes, but he's also got investment stocks n such.

His cockiness is his downfall. he's so confident his inventions will work but it always blows up his face (literally). He's incompetent but if he actually took things more seriously then he'd be a genuine threat.

Truly did not think I would be half drunk, explaining to my father how to work an Xbox 360 controller in the parking lot of a bar at midnight today but that is certainly how my life goes I suppose

[hexados-on-a-string]

i haven't drawn in almost 2 weeks so here's some fabia hc doodles to help me get back into the swing of things

[aroacenezhaanddainsleif]

i heard you had a tlt royalty au? 👀

TRAFFIC LIGHT TRIO ROYALTY AU

Okay so. This started off with my own self-indulgent high-fantasy projection that i injected some of the LMK cast into and then went “oh shit! an au!!!” 

The core of this is basically based off of this one comic where somebody brought up the idea of TLT being a second generation of their ancestors… DBF vs Wukong vs Dragons… and their friendship being a story about how to forgive and be better than the past. And they are still that in LMK! That theme just isn’t as strong for the trio specifically, so. this AU where they're kingdom heirs and have to work through the issues of their parents and their own roles in life. This is supposed to be roughly based off of old (imperial) Chinese bureaucracies but I know very little so take this as gen royalty fantasy AU vibes.

MK: Celestial Court

Red: Demon Court

Mei: Dragon Court

Sandy: water spirit from the dragon kingdom who is really just vibing and into building stuff

Pigsy: was a personal chef for DBK (they got along) and PIF in the Demon Realm until MK arrived in the Celestial kingdom, went “that’s my son now” and completely switched over bc that’s his son now

Tang: Pigsy’s husband. Originally from the celestial kingdom but didn’t like it there, but he was willing to follow Pigsy back bc why not

Nezha: the Celestial kingdom’s top general/realm guard and also basically MK’s babysitter. he has a tense relationship with some of Mei’s family due to his past with Ao Bing, although Mei's chill with him.

Guanyin: an advisor at the celestial court and basically MK’s aunt-uncle

and obvi, TLT are the heirs!!! their kingdoms have… tumultuous relationships due to past grievances, but the trio are trying their best to work past their parents’ issues and create something better for all their kingdoms, but it’s a long road ahead. but before i get into that, i’ll address everyone’s obvious question: ‘where’s Wukong?’

that is where stuff gets messy.

see, Erlang hated his uncle for (gestures to his backstory) obvious reasons, and just kind of… fucked off because he had no interest in being the JE’s heir. he’s still an on-call general, but stationed far, far away and without claim to the throne. although having an heir was not urgent (bc immortal), the JE was getting tired and so looked around for another powerful person as an heir; enter Wukong.

Wukong was technically in line to be the next Jade Emperor/smth similar, but it's Wukong, and that was *obviously* not his style, so he took a group of his friends and went on a very long pilgrimage/adventure. things in general ended a bit... messy, and he also managed to piss off DBK and the dragons, so Wukong basically went into self-imposed exile.

then MK popped into existence (from Wukong power residue), and Wukong went "grand! new son/protege!"

turned out that raising a still mostly-humanish boy in an entirely monkey kingdom with no friends was perhaps slightly detrimental to his growth. Wukong realized that he was probably more fit for being a weird uncle/cousin figure than an actual DAD, and this didn't follow "standard monkey raising protocol", and he reluctantly traveled back to the Celestial Kingdom.

after much convincing, Wukong was convinced to stay alongside MK, the boy being raised as the Celestial Prince instead of Wukong, and that’s how the Celestial Prince MK came to be!

(p.s. before you ask, Macaque is Wukong's ex bf(f) who launches an attack on the 3 kingdoms later) (p.s.s. MK was basically a young monkey prince when he first arrived due to Wukong raising him around monkeys, so the entire celestial palace and guard, ESPECIALLY Nezha, basically had to deal with Wukong all over again, aka MK climbing on stuff and getting into meetings he should not be in.)

Nezha: you have a meeting in five. Wukong: now i don’t. Nezha: WUKONG- — Nezha: you have a meeting in five. MK: now i don’t. Nezha: MK-! Nezha: (I have a feeling this is what I’m doomed to do for the rest of my existence.)

now for Traffic Light Trio, the real fun of this AU:

as the next royal heirs grew up, people kept desperately hoping for an alliance or possibly even an arranged marriage between at least 2 of the 3 bc of the kingdoms' tensions. what they didn't expect was for the trio to instead grow up to become best friends who had sleepovers and judged plays together.

Mei and MK were fast friends, but it took them forever to get Red Son to be friends with them. they used the "it's to build a political alliance" excuse a lot so Red could rationalize it until he eventually realized that "oh shit, these idiots are my FRIENDS now”, and she had to deal with the political and social implications of that, esp with the Celestial Realm being the most powerful of the 3 realms.

they're all pen pals tho, and all of their kingdoms whisper about marriage alliances and whatnot, but in truth Mei and MK will just be bullying Red into ruining his public image by trying to eat plastic or something, and at balls they try to do 3-person jigs just for fun and everybody sees these powerful heirs just falling over each other and laughing like madmen.

roles and life: hey you guys shouldn’t be friends and even if you are connected, say through marriage, you guys have political roles and duties to think about- TLT: no thanks. we’re gonna do this our own way.

[robertleckie]

I'm here, crawling out of my little hole to say that I am currently in Melbourne (in fact, I've been in Oz for almost 6 months y'all, it's been a wild year), so guess who's gonna look up filming locations for The Pacific and sob about walking the same ground as not only Robert Leckie, but also my boy James Badge Dale and the rest of the cast and crew?
