kids these days who are fans of fall out boy and can just read the lyrics on spotify or whatever. do you know how lucky you are. when i was a lad you listened to an illegally burnt cd, heard a nonsensical string of syllables, and listened to it 100 times until you thought you know what was said. and then you got ahold of an album sleeve with lyrics and read the lyrics. and realise you were absolutely nowhere close.

sometimes we see Oscar having do socmed alone and it's just so not his thing and he literally just… made guacamole while people watched
but then Lando's around !! and Oscah gets the chance to show off (in a way) athletically and he's a fucking peacock - I'm sure not at ALL affected by Lando spending time with gregarious Pato and Franco :))
Tumblr media
and like !! Lando fully happily taking the supportive gf role with crying out 'Oscah!' and 'you've got this' and 'you've got more of the float than I did' 'he'd got the tekkers now' and immediately turning for Oscar's smile when he finally lands one
Tumblr media
but the indulgent, familiar "where's this imaginary line then?" bc Lando ALWAYS makes the rules and Oscar ALWAYS acts long-suffering and it's just their little thing ok and it makes them smile into each other's soft faces !!
Tumblr media
and ofc 'Oscah absolutely dom-in-at-ed' while Lando sticks his tits out and Oscar literally puffed up with pride and wearing the rings in celebration bc Lando knows you've gotta let alphas have their egos stroked (wink wink)
Tumblr media
meanwhile Oscar's groaning and angrily slamming at the cacti and reacting with more intensity than any race in his life and getting all yappy and sassy
Tumblr media
LAST BUT NOT LEAST THE PATHETIC LITERAL THIS ONE'S FOR U BABE IMMEDIATE FAILURE
Tumblr media
and fucking kill me over how Lando immediately latches onto the joke and does that little expectant head lift and then they synchronize throwing their heads back to laugh fuck OFF

Endlessly entertained by the relationship between House and his Doctors. He tells them to do the most insane shit and they bitch a little but they DO IT? Break into this person's house, House says. Go dig up a dead cat in someone else's backyard. Go looking for a homeless person's stash and get bitten by rabbies-infested bats.
These are highly qualified doctors running around being House's minions and that says EVERYTHING about them

Sharing is Caring!
[First] Prev <–-> Next
#poorly drawn mdzs#mdzs#wei wuxian#lan wangji#jiang cheng#While listening to the Lotus Seed extra I was like 'aw this art is so cute.'#Post The Fanfic Fiasco (re: last comic's tags) I am haunted by the green orbs. WWX has a bag of edible green orbs and I am in hell.#First draft of this comic's script has JC saying 'dude you wouldn't even share with me!' and I love his little sibling indignation.#Middle child power is knowing that you don't have to share with your siblings. The little wet eyes and weak hand slaps do NOTHING.#JC probably already ate all of his lotus seeds. That's on you dude!#Part of me wants to get deeper with the metaphor of the lotus seeds here. It is a gesture of a certain kind of affection.#JYL gives something to WWX she does not quite share with JC. And WWX in turn gives something to LWJ he does not share with JC.#Really puts JC's line 'You're always eating...eating eating' into a very different light.#There are other kinds of starving besides hunger. There are other ways to be a glutton than just food and drink.#WWX's character pre-burial mounds is heavily focused on 'Indulgence'. Be it wine or flirting or hunting or eating-#-or receiving admiration; He is always indulging in ways we never see JC do.#I think the intentional contrast was with the Lan's 'Live simple and without indulgence' lifestyle. LWJ is the abstainer to wwx's gluttony.#But it does expand to JC as well! Both are locked into the role model position to have friction against WWX's apparent freedom.#I think LWJ and JC (at this point) see WWX as something they both want (in different capacities) and someone they want to be.#Yet despite the history between them it is not JC who WWX reaches out to. It's LWJ.#The boy already has an inferiority complex! Stop making it accidently worse!

archvile Your Soma art has left an impression upon me and I think about them every once in a while. Just thought you'd maybe wanna know lmao
Tumblr media
Thank you! :O I'm glad you liked my SOMA art! I haven't drawn Simon or SOMA related fanart in years, and you inspired me to sketch a Simon. Now I need to rewatch a playthrough of that game since it's been ages

it probably is insane how much I wish I could express the thing about spones. the vibes about spones. Like there's the joking fun fandom vibes and I love them, I love to play with them, of course of course. but the THING. the CORE to me. i wish i could capture it and share it.
#like. the constancy. like the friction matters because it's hand in hand with the steadfastness you know? and it doesn't preclude tenderness#also climbing into the mind of the person you've been obsessed with understanding and being understood by.#and the fact that it's lifelong. and the teasing. and the fact that the growth is in the allowance of imperfections#allowing that imperfections exist in who you love allows you to love them allows you to love yourself#and i always love people knowing what you believe and bolstering it when you feel lost even when it's not their philosophy#(bones asking spock hope? isn't that a human failing? and him not allowing that#spock losing himself to emotion in all our yesterdays and bones reminding him how antithetical that is to him)#but even with all that seriousness - the TEASING. the plain fun. the constant reaching out regardless of their moods#the constant seeking each other out. the almost - given nature of the relationship.#it's not in some ways as dramatic as a Simple Feeling as the When I Think of You I Feel Shame.#it's bones growing into old age the human way one day at a time with spock#when people are like oh spock just put his katra in him because he was there - yeah. and he was always going to be the one who was there#this is why the earth moon sun metaphor works for the triumvirate so much better than sun moon stars imo#bones is the earth spock is the moon kirk is the sun#'the captain was indispensable'#the sun - a distant lifegiver to them and many others. they do revolve around it. have unique relationships to it#the earth revolutes the sun which brings it life. the moon has a face it only shows the sun#and the moon revolutes the earth. their gravity shapes each other. they reach out to each other. they formed in a collision outward#in some ways are entirely different but have the same stuff in them. spin the same.#idk it just makes so much sense for them all.#but even just getting back to them. again just the obsession with each others mind.#'i will never understand the medical mind' 'mathematically perfect brainwaves'#and then complimenting each other always so startlingly out of the blue with their own fields -#'you have a good bedside manner spock' 'perhaps if they had your ingenuity they would have'#the seeking each other's advice out even if it's just to argue with it lmao. the motif of their last words always going to each other#even wrath of khan - we know spock was talking to bones in his head. i do always wonder what was in their tsfs reunion scene#that shatner didn't want to happen.#I don't know and even this isn't the heart of it.#there's the families and the way they fit into each other's conception and value and weight of family#do i even tag this spones. this is just crazy rambling.

yes yes liam is playing orym as a very biased boy and stubborn about gods blah blah blah but like. don't you maybe think that orym said no to the archheart's plan because he saw laudna get cannibalized alive by delilah and they were only able to pull her back right before hitting the point of no return. because he told her it was okay to give in along as it got rid of the villain and didn't pay any mind to how it would end. and how he won't make that mistake again.

Wouldn't mind that Blake & Birdbandit post, not least because fndm's whole 'catGF's role here is to Protectively Glare at the badmom and/or rub her loyalty to Yang in Rae's face'…thing has struck me as reductive & blinkered for quite some time.
lol yeah it’s… kind of obvious that a lot of people aren’t thinking about it in terms of characterization and narrative, they’re thinking about it in terms of wanting yang to receive some degree of protection from raven’s abandonment (even if it’s performative, even if in reality that kind of behavior from a romantic partner in a situation where you’re trying to work out a relationship with your absent/estranged mother is… obnoxious at best, making it all about how the partner feels at worst.)
but like
the thing is blake ran away from yang out of self-loathing cowardice too, and by the time she meets raven, raven has come back and made a serious commitment to make amends, not just to yang but to everybody. she’s back in the inner circle, that suggests a monumental effort to change –
and blake, uh, knows how hard it is to make that kind of change, to come back and apologize and face those fears after running away, because She Did That. not just with yang but also her own parents!
blake is also by a… pretty wide margin the most forgiving member of team rwby, the one most willing to offer second chances, to listen and empathize with people she thinks can be reached, we saw this play out with ilia. and weiss, after weiss acknowledged she’d done wrong and demonstrated willingness to change back in v1. she’s the only one of team rwby who isn’t claws-out toward emerald at the top of risk, and she’s the first one to voice her understanding of why ozpin lied and hid from them. she is, in general, not vindictive or spiteful.
and while i can absolutely see her being more defensive of yang than she is of herself, there is no universe where i can imagine blake of all people engaging in – pardon me – catty mean girl behavior towards raven on yang’s behalf. if she snaps at raven at all it’ll be to rebuke raven saying something caustic, but i don’t think raven is going to be much inclined to be caustic at this juncture.
i imagine it will be more, blake is aloof and wary of raven but cautiously optimistic on yang’s behalf and wholeheartedly supporting whatever yang wants out of reconnecting with her mom, and raven maybe avoids her for a while before venturing to make awkward stabs at conversation, and then blake’s diplomatic and interpersonal skills kick in. they have a fair amount in common personally, and they also have caring about yang in common, and if blake were to express any feelings she has about raven trying to be in yang’s life it would be concern, and probably confided in yang to make sure she understood what yang wanted and how blake can help her. maybe having a careful conversation with raven, later, if they builds up a good enough rapport.
at the end of the day, blake is a) a diplomat and b) way too mature to let whatever private resentment or indignation she feels on yang’s behalf get in the way of letting yang take the lead here. which is the correct way to deal with this situation. incidentally.

Ok but Crowleys reaction to Aziraphale explaining what sex is
Tumblr media
Look at him. Confused, perplexed, stunted, puzzled, bewildered, baffled. Girlie has NO idea what he's talking about. Truly an ace icon

got out of the house of my own volition for the first time since, oh, July? everyone clap and cheer!!
dnd at the library was fun! moderately full of teenage lack of prioritization skills and teenage frustration about said lack of skills, but that's to be expected. also the table was 8 school-age boys (loud), 2 school-age girls (very quiet), 2 grizzled bearded men (one of them with the same frustration issues as the teenagers and one of them very calm and weary), and ✨ me ✨
oh and the DM, an actual saint 🙏

ohhh I just met davrin and I really like him so far. he is not going to like my rook very much until they start to understand each other better (beneath rye ingellvar's flippant jokester exterior and willingness to try talking it out first is a spine and will of steel but you'd be forgiven for not realizing that on socially awkward introduction), but I do like the way davrin just comes into the figurative room and goes '...what the actual fuck are you guys getting up to in here' already tired but game to give it a shot anyway. the lighthouse dynamic really needed this dude (especially in my playthrough fdsha). he shows up like 'how can five adult intrepid heroes not have a single warrior ability between them. how is your only tactic of defense 'oh shit, everyone dodge!!!'. what is this glass canon nonsense' and three mages and two rogues look at the floor and stammer out 'I... well, we... the economy is in shambles.... a-and I mean, the apocalypse.......'
