Council of lovefools.
[First]Ā PrevĀ <ā-> Next
#poorly drawn mdzs#mdzs#wei wuxian#jiang yanli#jiang cheng#They don't have an actual sleepover in this scene but the vibes were so sleepover coded...I had to get them cozied up.#Late night talks with friends and family are some of the best conversations.#My siblings and I used to have room sleepovers with each other (Actually an excuse to stay up and talk about runescape)#Currently my flatmates and I also have really great heart to hearts late into the night.#Pondering shit like 'What defines confidence?ā and āWhy are people terrified of letting themselves fall in love?"#All that aside; There is a really great conversation between JC and WWX here. They are so close and yet so far way from each other!#Fundamentally they *agree* about many things - but JC now has to play the role of someone more 'mature'.#His temper is reigned in and he had to take a more nuanced approach. Whereas WWX can be far more reactionary.#JC has changed to become someone more mature (or at least he is trying).#Contrast this attitude with the scene *right* after where WWX literally goes baby mode with JYL. Rolling around going āI'm Fwee years oldā.#When children are hurt we comfort them with hugs and warm food and a laugh. It's not enough when you're an adult. It's not simple anymore.#WWX is stuck in the past when everyone else is shifting and moving on! It's a depression allegory (and just...actual depression)#But we also get to see how some things have stayed the same. They still bicker about soup. They still tease. They are still together.#They all care for each other very much but they are struggling against trauma and are not equipped to talk about it.#You can't really blame WWX for being so protective over JYL. But JC is right: āYou don't have a say in who she likes.ā#It may have started as an arranged marriage but *she* is *choosing* what her heart wants. JC sees that. WWX cannot.#The final act of love is letting go after all.

i never know how to phrase it but something about the way beatles biographers and people in general view paul's reflexive placating persona and determination to smooth things over as manipulative or duplicitous and john's reflexive barbed persona and habit of lashing out as brave and subversive despite both being equally defensive mechanisms to shield themselves from the world that resulted in them saying things that weren't true says more about how we culturally view kindness or friendliness as inherently untrustworthy or flimsy and anger and carelessness as more believable as someone's true nature than it says about either of them in actuality
#the beatles#john lennon#paul mccartney#mclennon#idk if im explaining this well but it always gives me whiplash to read how 'beatles historians' elsewhere view them#bc it seems like for all that theyre able to make the simple connection between johns past and trauma to his behavior#as a protective mechanism to shield him from vulnerability#far fewer people make the equally reasonable connection between pauls past#with parents that never said i love you to each other or told their children about a serious illness#and an adult paul who doesnt examine his own feelings much less speak candidly about them#or stories like mike mccartney talking about being beaten by jim while paul yelled at him to just say that he 'didnt do it' so it would sto#and an adult paul who has clearly internalized the basic cause and effect of the things you say and the consequences that come from them#and how the truth is less relevant in those situations than the obvious path of least resistance that will spare you needless pain#idk i have a lot of thoughts and feelings on how people see paul mccartney#i want to shake some of these biographers and be like this mid-20s kid experiencing a level of scrutiny and pressure#the world had never seen before#was not puppeteering everything to meet his vision#he was trying to protect himself and his friends from the very real danger of public perception!!#my posts

Frame redraws.
#homestuck#trigun#trigun stampede#i love drawing in this style but god.#Nick is also my least favorite to draw in it.#mostly cause his design is very simple and most of distinguishing features are +#the cross or his face or if its 98 its also his hair

i've been thinking about iconic it girl reader who's only ever been known to have one boyfriend ā a professional athlete. your relationship with each other was everyone's idea of couple goals, and the breakup that followed was quoted to be "amicable" and that the two of "came to an agreement that you were better off as friends" geez, did your PR teams have to word it like your relationship was all just some fucking contract? relax on the business professional tone. it's almost like they're not describing the best two years of your life.
now, a year later after the breakup that almost caused your break down, you're back and better than ever. you're about to launch your own beauty brand, you're gracing the cover of vogue, and you're protecting your peace by only focusing on yourself, your career, and your girlfriends. you don't date, and you especially don't date athletes. as a matter of fact, you actively avoid all of them like they carry the fucking plague. but when your publicist gives you a deal that you can't refuse (no, literally ā it's a deal you can't refuse. read your contracts closely, kiddos), you find yourself thrust into a fake relationship with character. he reminds you of your ex for all the wrong reason; they play the same sport, they have similar attitudes, the same work ethic, the same drive and passion for the sport (and only for the sport...). but there's something different about him, too. he's... not as charismatic. he's kind of goofy, honestly, but he's cute enough to where it works in his favor. he's devoted to his sport, and yet, he finds the time to call his mom every week and despite the fact that this relationship is nothing more than a publicity stunt, he's surprisingly attentive to you, too...
but you've kept yourself and your heart safe by drawing a clear boundary. would you be willing to risk everything you've built up just to create something real with character? especially whenever your ex comes back into town, reopening old wounds and reminding you why you created these boundaries in the first place?
#ex boyfriend is WHOOOOOOO#btw u and ur ex broke up bc he loved the sport more than he loved u#or at least it felt like that#he neglected ur relationship and went all in on chasing after his sports dreams#very one track mind#and meanwhile character has that same drive#but later on in this hypothetical fic you'll ask character how he does it#how he manages to keep his friendship and relationships in tact despite his hard schedule and he shrugs like everything is simple#'because i love them too?'

#my art#monkey d. luffy#one piece#dracule mihawk#sir crocodile#mihawk a little more moustachy and very OOC smile#the croc is from almost a year ago but i still find it neat#just normal drawings#hoping to draw less fanart and more original stuff this year. or at least really try to go out of my comfort zone#also plz no inappropriate comments about the croc#luffy and mihawk make good templates to experiment on. maybe cuz they're simple and shaped + wide brim hat#i seriously have a mihawk disease#i really like drawing low angles#i was looking at pics of tsurumi from GK and i was like mihawk could have a moustache like that#i think mihawk is the cutest guy in one piece.#April Edit: modified the luffy pic slightly. the shadow cutting off in the middle of his neck was bothering me for months

A very lacy sort of outfit, still always trying to find a way to use this shirt in things lol
#cult party kei#jfashion#ootd#fashion#pastel#(as usual everything is thrifted - except for the shoes...#which I think are bodyline?? I've had them like 10+ years so I don't remember exactly lol)#by the shirt Imean the kind of very light bluey tealish sort of one. It's like..a pajama tank top or something#so I just never really have stuff to fit it with since my style is more layered#Though I sometimes wish to have a friend to dress up that's okay wearing just one layer or something to do some more simple outfits#on lol.. I think sometimes just a tank top + a skirt and a few accessories could be a certain type of interesting combination#depending on the aesthetic. But I always feel too barren if I'm not in like 14 shirts so#I can layer it over dresses sometimes at least#the blue teal just doesnt match a lot of other things that I have#self

i love you
#madness combat#sanmos#a long time ago many years ago i posted art of sanmos#and some guy on instagram reposted it and called me every name in the book mostly just saying that i was 'ruining' madcom#which is very funny...#but ill always be grateful that at least the fandom is somewhat of a safer place even if its something as simple as kissing#art.fla

cant stop thinkin bout charles and erik readin together on the couch but instead of reading with him charles is listening to eriks thoughts while he reads. Live mind commentary ā¦ā¦..
#xmen#cherik#charles xavier#erik lehnsherr#snap chats#the rare time i post an idea of mine only because i really cant think of a way id draw this#usually i hoard my ideas cause i like surprising you guys but this aint really one i feel like drawing so. For You my friends#like i COULD but. idk just isnt particularly something im itching to draw it just seems cute#but anyways no chat let me cook alright hear me out cause i talk in my brain all the time while i read#sometimes i stop reading just to think about a bit i read yeah#i want charles to listen in on all of eriks side comments or observations he makes while reading something#like if he wanted to charles could read the whole book in less than five minutes- maybe shorter than that#and that aint fun that aint cool ā¦. so time for Audible: Husband Edition. With Commentary#ITD BE SO COZY just hangin out by the fireplace ā¦. maybe its snowin outisde ā¦ if snow even exists anymore atp#a light fire cracklin and the study SEEMS totally quiet otherwise and yetā¦..#charles has been locked in to erikās off-the-cuff literary analysis and mild comments for the past twenty minutes. its simple but its bliss#charles doesnt have to worry about being seen as invasive .. he doesnt have to suppress his powers ā¦#the rare occasion erik lets charles into his mind for somethin so innocent .. ive made myself sick i fear#see now i wanna try writing a fic but 1.) have written in years 2.) id have to really think hard on how erik would commentate on a book#hmā¦ā¦ actually i do wonder what erikās commentary on The Fable of the Bees would be ā¦..#IN ANY CASE. maybe - at the very least- i can draw cherik by the fireplce someday ā¦.#thatd be cute ā¦ hm ā¦. depends on if i get in the mood for it down the line#anyways i have to drive back to my dorm !!! boo !!!! so good night everyone !!!!!

As gently and politely as I can put this: that post I made about outliving him is meant to be an anti-suicide affirmation. It is not meant to be a blinders-on assessment of reality, of the future boiling down to whether one man lives or dies. It is meant to reassure myself and everyone else that the horrors come, and the horrors go, that nothing is permanent, that hope persists with split knuckles and blood on its teeth. Things are rough. Things will likely get rougher. My eyes are open to that, but in the end, the first thing they want from us is to roll over, surrender, die. And I will not be granting that wish. I deserve to be here. You deserve to be here. We deserve to see the sun rise. And it will. I promise.
#āthis isnāt a fantasy novelā yes thank you if it were Iād have a cool sword at the very least#but what I have instead is a dozen tiny reasons to keep going#my wife. my pets. my stories. to see how my favorite tv show turns out.#to watch my nephew grow. to laugh with my siblings. to cry with my parents.#to see the movies Iāve missed and read books that havenāt yet been written#and above all else: to prove that I can. that I can stay. that I can see just one more sunset. one more snowfall. one more pride parade#one more. one more. one more.#itās one day at a time. it always has been.#it will be bad. I am not disputing that. I came into this year terrified that it would be my last one on earth#but so long as I have a say: I say no. I say I belong here. i say fuck you.#it will be bad. of course it will. it will be terrifying.#and I will be here because the simple fact of my queer ass continuing to draw breath#can help ruin the day of the worst people alive

Something Iāve been thinking about lately is that small moment in āAir Turtleā where immediately after the Daves lose yet another game, Leo says how sorry he is and how heās doing his best as the mascot. This moment is so short but itās honestly jam-packed with a whole heap of characterization.
His need to apologize for things clearly not his fault - especially when it feels like he messes up the job he was given despite doing the best he can (the phrase āitās not about youā takes a new meaning when this is one of the lessons to be learned from that - that he is not always solely responsible for things going wrong), his need to save face and make a connection with an older adult man in his life (something he consistently does throughout the series - heās got a few daddy issues, always collecting potential father figures, itās no wonder he jumps at the bit to keep rapport), and the way he sounds and looks and the words he chooses really pushes how he is just a kid (āMr. the Dunk, Iām so sorryā).
Like I know itās a one off moment that doesnāt truly mean much, but when put against the rest of the series it works really well with the rest of Leoās established character and helps in solidifying later concepts as well.
#rottmnt#rise of the teenage mutant ninja turtles#rottmnt leo#rise leo#rottmnt headcanons#am I looking too much into things? almost assuredly yes#I actually appreciate how tim immediately goes āitās not your faultā as well? like he couldāve just blamed this 15/16 year old but he didnāt#but yeah this moment got to me a little mainly because it made me realize that Leoā¦DOES take responsibility for things a lot#he messes up a ton yeah but he says sorry at a pretty consistent rate#and yāknow thinking about it#THIS IS TINFOIL HAT TERRITORY BE WARNED#heās mentioned being betrayed by his brothers before - I wonder if it was something as simple as taking the fall for like#breaking something of Splinters or whatever#point is it wouldnāt be out of the ordinary for him to get the full blame for something only partially his fault#or not his fault at all in some cases#like in bug busters where Raph gets mad at Leo for not getting captured with them#(I understand Raphās mindset here a ton - Raphās the leader and heās likely lashing out so I donāt blame the poor kid)#but this plus the moment at the beginning of the movie#where only Leo is reprimanded despite Mikey and Donnie having full autonomy to join the fun pizza stacking#make no mistake this is not at all a diss on everyone else!!! itās just something I noticed#I think that āitās not about youā doesnāt just pertain to being arrogant and wanting the spotlight#I think itās also about how responsibility is meant to be shared#and like#Leo DOES mess up a lot! so heās honestly probably used to having the blame because it is often at least somewhat warranted#heās specifically described as being good at apologizing after all#tldr: Leo messes up a lot of the time so he is very used to blame and attention both good and bad#even when the full blame should not be solely on his shoulders

on my third rewatch and just got through ep 3 and man. the devlin house is such a strong fucking episode. like quality-wise. acting-wise. plot-wise. etc. thatās not to say the first two episodes werenāt strong, but the devlin house hits noticeably harder and hits different. like itās the precise turning point episode where you realize oh. this show isnāt just gonna be campy with a dash of angst. weāre addressing some serious heavy ass trauma. and not just magical unreal trauma either like. just straight up abuse. and the boy whoās been unserious and silly this whole time isnāt just like that for shallow comic relief reasons. there is so much more there lurking under the surface. oh man itās good
#itās a very very strong episode very good writing very good acting mwah#rambling#dead boy detectives#jayden revri was getting moderately simple parts to act out and then they hit episode 3 and were like okay jayden :)#letās see what you can fucking do.#boy.#it was interesting to watch it again and actually pay attention to edwin during parts of this episode#where the focus is on charles and heās sorta in the background or not at the forefront#specifically when the family keeps getting killed and heās just standing there. hardly reacting. i know now that that was a choice#at least partially? possibly entirely? decided by george and man i love when an actor knows his character that well#as to consider things like hm. yeah. heās probably really Really desensitized to violence.

Yue Qingyuan and Tianlang Jun having tea together ā
[Commission for @absolmon!]
#poorly drawn svsss#svsss#better drawn mdzs#yue qingyuan#tianlang jun#Do not hold the teapot like TLJ is holding it. He is actively burning his hand and *also* putting the teapot at risk.#He is (at least) using the right type of teapot (lighter coloured) to have a lighter tea.#The world of tea is extremely deep and I will probably do a comic about how to pick the right teapot / how to do a simple ceremony#You do *not* know tea until you have someone who knows tea make a cup for you.#Even if it is just a 'frathouse style' tea ceremony with random utensils to get the job done - it is so tasty.#Anyways; I think these two deserve to have a nice tea break. I like to think they are having jasmine tea.#TLJ is very much based off of my Luo Binghe design so if you wonder why he is so soft looking - that's why!#Thanks again to Absolmon for the commission! I really did love working on this B*)#EDIT: Thank you to Livingmeatloaf for helping out with the alt text! I added a few notes but it was really helpful to have a base!
