can you even imagine what a fucking horror show the early game is from spite's perspective, though. not only is this funky forcibly severed little slip of the fade having to deal with the reverse cosmic horror of physical reality as perceived by a spirit and being trapped in it against its will -- existentially confused and disoriented and hurting and nothing makes any kind of sense, at the mercy of human cruelty at its most deliberately sadistic. and then the one source of comfort and compassion and some kind of safety and clarity that lucanis surely must have been to him in the ossuary despite everything just goes and shuts himself in his room inside with a seemingly passive aggressive number of locks between them and no explanation and won't speak to him and they're STILL in the fucking ossuary. rook came and found them and they could be free now (rook is here!) and still lucanis keeps them in the ossuary even though he PROMISED he promised they'd get out of there together!!! what the fuck DO you think at that point? like did he trick me that whole time??? he wasn't like zara before, so why is he doing this to me now? why isn't he saying anything? 'he won't move. I can't reach him'. at least in the ossuary they had a deal, a goal, a hope -- each other. at least he wasn't entirely alone, before.

this poor poor poor little spite spirit really was ferried into the real world like 'hey welcome to reality! as your first introduction to it you're first getting horrifically tortured and then getting to vicariously experience one of THE most distressing and harrowing psychological conditions the human brain can cook up for itself (a fully fledged and deeply entrenched freeze response flaring up with catastrophic severity due to an unbroken ongoing and unlikely to let up any time soon chain of Unfortunately... Recent Events). I think spite is being extremely reasonable and patient about the whole thing, when you put it into perspective. I'm not saying let him eat the self-lighting candles or anything, but he's got some extremely valid points along the way lol. spite is not only child-like, the metaphor work going on is a lot more pleasingly flexible and complex than that, but he is also helplessly existentially dependent on lucanis in a way that, if anything, is a heightened version of the way a child (or child part) has to depend on a parent to navigate the world and survive.

tl;dr: we truly don't give enough sympathy to spite for having to live in the head of lucanis dellamorte. a place even lucanis dellamorte would prefer not to be. to be fair to him I think lucanis would be the first person to agree with this lol

#it's a lot like it would be if a spirit possessed me I suspect. like sorry you're in here too now I've tried to get out myself but no luck #possessor's remorse #spite very much did not have a choice in all of that he's just working with the hand he's been dealt here lol #dragon age #dragon age: the veilguard #dragon age: the veilguard spoilers #dragon age spoilers #spite #lucanis dellamorte #spite is such a little gremlin but looking at what's going on from his pov for even like a split second is so heartbreaking haha #one of my favourite parts of their relationship is that there clearly is affection of some sort on both sides even at the beginning #beneath the resentment and confusion and fear and mutual frustrations there is also real and enduring care #the fact that lucanis is genuinely kind and spite is genuinely loyal in his spirit-y way. I just. I need a moment.#the nice thing about playing a mourn watcher is that it's easy to imagine rook sort of glimpsing the outlines of some of this #and being quite understanding with spite even as they don't want to be invasive or step on lucanis' still-tender trauma toes about it #be nice to spite. like all of us he is Going Through it fr fr perhaps even more so. and he doesn't even get to have FIRE 😔#*grumbly spite voice* I hate this fucking family

why cant characters be little freaks. why cant they be a lil weird. must all characters be nice and well adjusted? must they all have healthy emotional regulation and a firm handle on their mental health? can they not be a lil fucked up? a lil off putting? is it a crime for a character to be, dare i say it, annoying?

#personal #i also have this problem w my faves but like. they are so annoying. canonically my faves are little bastards.#i must embrace this truth.... only then will i be free......#this post was made abt dick grayson but it also applies to obi wan and like literally every other character i love to death #dick grayson was so annoying at 8 years old that he had full grown adults beefing w him like i MUST not forget this critical truth #bro HONED that shit. bro was distilling and purifying annoyance into a lethal weapon. he was HECKLING mfs professionally #AND HE'S STILL SO CHARMING 90% OF THE HERO COMMUNITY STANS HIM. IN SPITE OF HIS BITCHY NATURE. MAYBE EVEN BECAUSE OF IT.#HE IS GOOD AND KIND. BUT PERHAPS. NOT NICE......

#Doodles #Pokemon #Firebland #Silverstreakshipping #Kabu #Larry #The Stanley Parable #Stanley #Silly little leftovers between bigger ideas - it's interesting how most of my ideas for them are comic-style :0 #Interaction scripts moreso than just Cute Lads as is my wont haha - though they are also cute #Practice doodles to keep sharp!#And hey they both get their own singular focus and two together! Doubly double nice haha #I think about ''Would you still love me if I was a worm'' perhaps an inordinate amount.... I genuinely really like it haha #Yes it's silly but I'm very moved by it all the same! That one post of love and care really really spoke to me #Of keeping someone you love safe and protected and fed and healthy ''even if'' they had nothing could provide in return #Very similar to the Came Back Wrong post - I love you because You Are not because of what you can Do For Me #Very sappy! Of course I like it! I will turn it silly though hehe I love both!#And also the pun of Wurmple hehehe ♪ To think I almost went with Caterpie or Kakuna! My Gen1 love is too strong smh #Poor Larry haha Kabu quick to reassure! Loves you! ♥#Some Stanley!! I have a few more Guys Who Are Dudes in the barrel to meet up with Larry at some point haha #Stanley had to be first tho - I tagged a meme with Larry as being Stanleycore! Normal but Weird about it #Stanley is Not normal for the record lol but he Is an Office Man so he counts #Hey Stanley why don't you wear a tie to work huh #Floof lads <3 Obviously! Kabu's much easier to draw floofed out lol but that's just 'cause floof is fun and easy to draw #Larry is actually much harder to draw floofed lol - how do his grey streaks fall! Absolute mayhem! Cute nonetheless haha #And ending out with huggles and snuggles and cuddles <3 That pose is much much fun to draw :D #Surrounded but not trapped! Larry's legs pressing in on Kabu's but not forcing him closed and Kabu's hands on Larry's #Hold him there hold him there both sides all the ways around #Larry's really leaned down onto his shoulder if their heads are at matching heights haha #I'm quite pleased ♪ Their faces turned out cute and the pose turned out nice :) S'pretty! :D

King the silly guys, Lupin III!

(for @dying-suffering-french-stalkers)

#lupin the 3rd #Of course I had to give him a silly pose. He is the silliest guy. A tangle of limbs in a nice Italian suit.#I have such fond memories of watching the Lupin III movies with friends.#Actually...It's really touching to be able to draw fanart for the series. A homage to a special memory.#Thank you for giving me this opportunity! Seeing your icon (Goemon) has been a true treat in my notifs this last year.#Yes I was a Lupin fan this whole time! I started with part 5 so I am not a particularly old fan.#(I had a little bonus comic to go with this of the rest of the crew but I ran out of time to polish it up...perhaps another day.)#For everyone else; I highly recommend watching 'A Women Named Fuijko Mine'. Mind the content warnings though.#It is very dark but a really *really* fantastic deconstruction on the femme fatale archetype. Not to mention visually stunning.#Castle of Cagliostro is a good recommendation if you want something more lighthearted.#And with that...raffle week has come to a close! Thank you all for waiting and participating!

*picking the purple option with lucanis' mind caterina to call her on her bullshit in the vain hope that maybe something subliminal might get through in the long run* it ain't much but it's honest work

#like. does he need comfort in this moment. yes. can I bear to hear her go 'my poor boy...' like she must have done a thousand times #when she was in fact the reason for his poor boyness. no. we've come too far for false comfort here I think this needs to cHANGE #I can't be a collaborateur in this we'll get you some other support structures yet if it kills me lucanis b/c this is grim #(I do like the 'the little boy you raised' phrasing in the 'nice' option a lot though. even though it's like... no. no I don't think #that her turning him away is ever going to be the problem. quite the opposite perhaps. but interesting that it is something #that he he clearly IS afraid of and worries might happen)#dragon age #dragon age: the veilguard #dragon age: the veilguard spoilers #dragon age spoilers #lucanis dellamorte #caterina dellamorte #unwell about dellamortes over breakfast again. not that I was ever gone but we are also so back

maybe the real voltron was the friends we made along the way

#so i finished. feels like they did not put a lot of thought into shiro or hunk's epilogue lmfao #overall i dont think it was Bad. it could have been better yknow. but again. it feels like they just needed a little extra time to breathe #in development. it's just bones.#i do think perhaps some of the criticisms i have seen of it are just from people pissing on the poor #i could fix her!!! ough i really do want to rewrite this sdnfksjfd but that would unfortunately require. having to watch this again #and i cant do that in 24 hours #im so sad this is disappearing. this is the only show for which i ever stayed up for the midnight PST release #back when only season 1 and maybe 2? were out i used to watch them constantly. sometimes in spanish to practice #like i wouldnt have ever finished without the threat of it leaving but this is the worst timing to reawaken my affection for it lmao #grateful for it. wish i hadnt waited so long #i did need time to forget the insanity tho bc if i had made myself keep going and finish at the time #it would have poisoned the ending i think. nice to finally watch those last 4-5 episodes with a fresh perspective #but at the same time this is How Many Years ive missed out on being able to talk about it lmao #maybe there is a renaissance. idk i havent looked into it too much but i guess i should now huh #we'll see if things are any different or if it's just the same shit i got tired of the first time around #but anyway. the show is still fun and i enjoyed it for the most part. very sad to see it go #mine #voltron

anyway i think the only natural evolution for how buck treats people flirting with him on calls (sleeping with snake lady in season 1, saying he doesn’t date people he meets on calls in a later season) would be for him to go i’m flattered but i have a boyfriend. and for the flirters to then turn to eddie, who parrots the exact thing buck said. and then i want them to smooch

#evan buckley #eddie diaz #buddie #911 abc #michelle’s 911 thoughts #would make a nice gif set methinks #i also want them to acknowledge each other as boyfriends/partners as many times as possible #as a little treat #or a basic necessity perhaps idk

Look, I know it's supposed to end badly. But I need to admit that in my head, they declared a mutual "fuck this shit" to the world and society. Packed all the stuff they could one late night and escaped to a remote open plain in the middle of some thick woods where they spent the rest of their lives healing and living freely in nature.

I've been having a lot of intense feelings about them as well. The tragical elements are so baked in to their story and setting, it's hard to imagine a happy ending for them. But every now and then I find myself thinking of scenarios and AUs where they both live and grow old together. For coping purposes, I suppose.

#for real though I've had several crying sessions over them during the past couple of weeks I'm not kidding #that's how you know you've perhaps gotten a little too emotionally invested in your characters #two entirely fictional dog men whose fates I have complete control over have reduced me to shambles #the unfortunate truth is that from a storytelling point the whole thing works better as a tragedy #the sadness makes the happy moments more significant and the happy moments feel bittersweet because of the sadness #for all intents and purposes they're classic star-crossed lovers #neither of them have done anything to justify such a wretched end though and I just want good things for them #I think I might have to come up with an alternate ending where Machete has the sense and chance to resign before it's too late #and move to Florence to be closer to Vasco #or maybe they both go back to Venice where they originally met that might be nice #maybe not realistic but it'd be nice #answered #dragonfoxgirl
