I still can't stop thinking about how in Lucky Man, Jack never shows any blame or resentment towards Gabriel at all, and only directs the anger at himself.

Even right after a physical fight between the two of them, the first thing he wonders after the explosion is if Gabriel is alive.

None of his memories of Gabriel are resentful, and he always refused to believe that Gabriel caused the explosion.

It's kind of heartbreaking. I don't even think Jack hates him; Jack just hates himself.

One of my pieces of evidence for my "If someone has to kill Reaper, it will be Cassidy because Jack won't be able to do it" thought process is the difference in how they respond to Reyes' behavior. Reaper intentionally targets Jack's insecurities in a similar way to this, and Jack continues to make excuses for him; meanwhile, Cassidy doesn't respond to this line, but he's shown many times that he's willing to dig right back at Reyes.

Just something I think about, I suppose.

Listen, I know the "you don't have friends" line is somewhat treated as a funny interaction but....

Can we just address that like likely effected Cassidy way more then any other negative interaction he has with other characters? Cassidy as a character is someone who both thrives on connection while also having extremely bad attachment issues, he's never felt like he's belonged anywhere and was very much one of the most isolated characters during the years after Zurich (he and Jack are fist fighting for first place). Reaper, Gabriel Reyes, Cassidy's mentor and someone who likely knew a lot about Cole, saying something like "you don't have friends" would affect him so much more then someone calling him dumb or incompetent.

[image description: a page of drawings of marceline and simon from adventure time. on the left is marcy wearing a white cropped sweater, a short black skirt, red tights, black fingerless gloves, and black boots. there is a caption that says "Average Bisexual" next to her. next to that is a short comic of marcy and simon, where marcy is floating over simon as he reads a book. marcy asks, "hey simon. ever kiss another man before?", to which simon replies "well sure." below them there is a caption that says, "he then failed to elaborate." next to that is a drawing of simon with his hands clasped together, with a smaller, uncolored sketch of simon looking surprised above him. the entire page is colored in a watercolor style. end id]

Sobbing like a fool laying in my bed because I had the sad thought of Ben and Cody on Tatooine in their old age (pre-ANH) and them going to sleep, holding hands.

Cody passes in his sleep. Obi-wan/Ben, feeling Cody's bright presence suddenly blink out in the force, shoots awake, palming for a heartbeat where he knows there is no longer one. They had talked about it, Cody had known his time was coming to a close, he was content with how the rest of his short life had panned out, by his beloved general's side, married and at peace (kind of). Ben saw it. He knew. When it would happen seemed indeterminate; if Ben knew when Cody was passing, perhaps he could have prepared to be ready for it. But real life doesn't often work like that.

Gently cradling Cody's cooling face in one of his palms, uttering quiet "why's" into the dark, and, "i wasn't ready to let you go".

A final keldabe kiss in farewell as he combs his fingers through Cody's curls for the last time.

Just like with Qui Gon, Satine, Anakin, Padmé (we'll be here all night if I list them all), the emotional gut punch of watching the light die (metaphorical in Anakin's case) in the eyes of people Obi-Wan deeply cared about. It caps off at Cody. This is why to me, he was so ready to face off against Vader (including normal plot relevant reasons), because not only was he getting Too Old For This Shit Anymore, but one of the strongest lights (love) in his life had died a few years prior. So instead of offing himself like a coward or giving into his grief all those years ago, and when Cody passed, he became a “self-sacrificial jedi” one last time. Whereupon he would pass into the Force, where hopefully, Cody would be waiting.

But as mad as I was at Hercules for pulling that crap... I wasn't... I mean, I should've been... I could've been wrecked that it wasn't Conner, that he was still... gone. But... look at me, I'm not a big mess...

Meanwhile:

[chiptrillino]

you mentioned youve been drawing for over 15 years,,, can i ask if you can show any older art?

im a rather young artist but ive been drawing for around 3 years so i feel very discouraged with my progress. around what time did you become comfortable with your art?

(ID in ALT text) at least i tried roughly i am sorry

this took me a while to reply, hope you are still around anon. I really mean it when i say "i have always been drawing". i could dig up even older drawings i did (courtesy of momerrino's inability to trow anything away) but sorting through that could take forever...

so here is a brief selection. some can be found when you go back to the beginnings of my tumblr here. or on my old DeviantArt account or twitter.

i was around 14 in 2009 i am 30 now. idk improving takes time and patience. and perhaps even to learn to appreciate your own pen ship.

[Overwatch Heroes Ascendant Spoilers]

Also, it's now officially been stated in canon that Jack never believed that Reyes caused the Fall of Overwatch.

(A win for the Reaper76 fans, I'd say.)

me explaining why Will/Elizabeth/Jack love triangle was a perfect little one-movie arc that wasn't present in the final movie because it was never about choosing and instead just about dynamics and character development so they all outgrew it by then

Guys Silco’s pupil literally changes shape over the course of the series

In act one it’s enlarged, nearly eclipsing that eyes smaller iris (see references here)

In act 2, it’s been eaten inwards at the sides, revealing more of his iris

It’s now all squiggly

Don’t ask how long i was looking at him to realise this, you don’t need to know

was overcome with the urge to draw "wade tenderly caressing logan's face while he's Feeling Big Angsty Stuff" and then the parallel urge to do a follow-up of "logan kissing wade's hand/holding onto him for dear life"

(anyway hope you like it - I have been looking at this for too long and so of course I hate it now 🫠 art is hard guys lol)

some details below the cut because I am happy with some small aspects - still really enjoying the painting part of doing Wade's scars for example (thanks again @woof-verine for that inspo it is just baked into my psyche now, and also for being a forever enjoyer of pointy ears Logan - sorry couldn't quite get the fangs in this time but they are there trust me!!)

ps. was listening to She Calls Me Back by Noah Kahan for this one. idk it just hits for me in my poolverine-addled state lol
