Look how far I went, for fear of losing you.

#they’re my roman empire #and hell bent isn’t just an episode it’s the breaking point the emotional explosion #It’s where everything gets flipped upside down when it comes to love sacrifice and pushing moral boundaries #It’s the Doctor at his most vulnerable and powerful like at the same time #he’s not just some space traveler anymore he’s a person torn apart by his own contradictions battling his nature his past traumas #his fight with himself with Gallifrey with a world that doesn’t get his pain – it’s a cry of despair straight from his soul #and that cry? It’s all because of her #the Doctor’s ready to go to any extreme step over all the moral lines he used to stand for #It’s about keeping her alive #It’s scary and mesmerizing at the same time #his love isn’t romantic in the normal way it’s more like a raging storm capable of anything to keep the person he loves safe from harm #It’s not a calm harbor it’s a hurricane tearing everything in its path #every move he makes every time he tries to touch her to hold her to protect Clara it’s soaked in this crazy all-consuming love #he’s almost obsessed with it like he’s ready to rewrite reality break every law possible just so she stays alive #and it’s not just about being attached it’s an addiction fueled by the pain of loss and the fear of feeling that pain again #he’s lost and found himself in that pain #doctor who #12th doctor #twelfth doctor #twelve #hell bent #new who #dwgifs #dr who #the doctor #nuwho #clara oswald #whouffaldi #dw #peter capaldi

hope you feel better soon!

I am riddled with ailments, but I stay silly!

#ask #non mdzs #My health journey has been: Hernia -> acid reflux -> Vocal pain due to aforementioned reflux -> chest infection.#I'm terrified to know what's about to hit me next. Please let it be something kind. PLEASE.#The consequence of living with linguists is that you'll wake up with a wacked up voice -#suddenly you're sitting you down in front of a program called something like Praat having your shimmer and jitter levels calibrated.#They gave me a GRBAS of 33012. I have a fun thing called a pitch break where a whole octave just does not exist.#My vocal pain was bad enough I ended up seeing a speech pathologist and that whole experience was super neat!#I learnt a lot about voice - to be honest I might make a little comic on it after some more research. Fascinating stuff.#For example; your mental perception of our voice modulates the muscles of the vocal folds and larynx.#meaning that when you do have changes (inflammation = more mass = lower frequency)#your brain automatically attempts to correct it to what it 'should sound like'. Leading to a lot more vocal strain and damage!#And it gets really interesting for trans voice care as well - because the mental perception of one's voice isn't based on an existing sampl #So a good chunk of trans voice training is also done with the idea of finding one's voice and retraining the brain to accept it. Neat!#Parkinsonial Voice also has this perception to musculature link! The perception is that they are talking at a loud/normal volume #but the actual voice is quite breathy and weak. So vocal training works on practicing putting more effort into the voice #and retraining the brain to accept the 'loud' voice as 'normal'.#Isn't the human body fascinating?#Anyhow; Now I have vocal exercises and strategies to reduce strain and promote healing.#Which is a lot better than my previous strategy of yelling AAAH in my car until my 'voice smoothed out'.#You can imagine the horror on the speech path's face. I am an informed creature now.#I'm my own little lab rat now. I love learning and researching. Welcome to my tag lab. Class is dismissed.#I'll be back later with a few more answered asks </3 despite everything I'm still going to work and I need the extra sleep.#Thank you for the well wishes! And if you read all of that info dump; thank you for that as well!

hey does anyone else ever think about archon!dorian and lose their minds

#he becomes the archon not for the glory of house pavus but to change tevinter for the better #do you think he has days where he’s scared he’s become what his father wanted all along even if he took his own path to get there #do you think he wonders if his father would’ve been proud of him? does that thought make him feel better or worse?#i fucking love archon!dorian. it’s an incredible arc for his character #he ran away from tevinter to protect himself. he returned to tevinter to protect others #after years of trying to fight for good in the magisterium with almost no success. after his closest ally wrongfully lost her seat #after seeing minrathous getting wrecked THREE TIMES over the course of veilguard. even if rook saves minrathous the dragon does damage #after thinking all hope is lost. all his magister allies dead. elgar’nan in control of minrathous. 9(?) years of work completely for naught #still deep in his heart he loves tevinter. he loves mae. he loves the shadows. he loved felix and alexius. he loved his father #for so long he ran away from his problems. avoided thinking about the wrongs he witnessed. made wry jokes about blood magic #but no more. he will rebuild tevinter from the ruin elgar’nan left in his wake with his own two goddamn hands #Anyway. I am normal.#veilguard spoilers #dorian pavus

The Council of Optimuses: Pleasant, generally positive, they exiled Bayverse a while ago but they still check in once in a while to make sure he's ok/out of curiosity, Earthspark enables One's 'I can fix him' delusion to the point that Prime is falling into it too, IDW does NOT want to add to the delusion pile so he shuts up, Cyberverse kinda doesn't want to be at this meeting it feels too much like a party, IDW keeps making calls to somebody but he won't tell anyone who, they used to have 'bring your Bumblebee to work day' but Skybound had a breakdown over it so they can't do that anymore, everybody is suspicious of Skybound's new arm but the only person who actually brought it up was Bayverse whose solution was 'kill him' so now everybody thinks they are getting paranoid and should maybe start seeing a therapist (they should start seeing therapists, but they ARE right about the arm).

The Council of Megatrons: They are having a great time even if it looks horrible from the outside looking in, Prime constantly wants to fight IDW for his spot as the strongest Megatron but IDW is not about that, they tried to kick out Earthspark but he somehow keeps getting in (IDW leaves the door open), One has like 5 devils on his shoulder telling him to escalate and two fallen angels who are desperately trying to get across that maybe total destruction isn't the move, IDW is trying to hide his redemption arc in order to keep the situation under control (only Earthspark is aware of it, though Skybound has his suspicions), Cyberverse always tries to kill the others to take over their universes and it's the highlight of everybody's month, Bayverse is mocked for being killed by Optimus but secretly everybody is kinda jealous about it (Prime especially), one time an unidentified Starscream (it was Animated) broke in and it was on sight (he got away because every Megatron wanted to be the one who killed him and they fought each other over it), IDW keeps taking calls from somebody but he won't tell anyone who, Skybound can listen in on his Optimus's meetings due to being his arm and reports back, there is an ongoing debate about whether Galvatrons should be included.

Inspired by @jyang030107 's art of ES and IDW Megs advising their One counterpart.

#optimus prime #megatron #tf one #tf prime #tf cyberverse #tf idw #tf earthspark #tf bayverse #tf skybound #animated and G1 cartoon are my main blindspots so I didn't include them here #can you tell which one of these is my favorite based on how often I brought up their versions relative to the others?#I do genuinely like all of these interpretations for varying reasons but idk man I love comics so much #though I do only like Bayverse Optimus because I'm imagining every other Optimus just being genuinely upset at his existence #'GIVE ME YOUR FACE' 'or maybe we could just talk to him? or kill him normally?' '*fast forward one movie* 'hey megatron was just saying #that he wants a truce!! How lucky!! that's further than most of us have gotten on the path to peace!! what are you gonna...#...you're just gonna kill him? and then kill Sentinel as he begs for his life? when you could have ended this peacefully? what?'#he's uninvited from meetings but sometimes he shows up anyways and the others just get so curious #'what has he done this time?' 'I heard him say that he swore to never kill humans.' 'That's progress!'#*one meeting later* 'ok so you know how he just swore to never kill humans? he just killed a human.' '...what is wrong with him?'#meanwhile Bayverse Megatron fits right in with the others. I like him less by virtue of the movies he's in but he's still like #recognizably Megatron and not so ooc that it makes me bust out laughing during serious moments. he's a fairly standard Megatron.

#iasip #it's always sunny in philadelphia #charlie kelly #dennis reynolds #charden #mmmmmmmmmmmhmmmhm #it's so interesting to me that charlie has lagged behind dennis pretty consistently but taken a very similar path #dennis' 10 to 12 arc is charlie's 14 to 16 arc #also very interesting to me that they are both present in almost every one of these scenes.#guys who are willing to step in to keep things stable for everyone #even if it means sacrificing any and all progress that they actually want for themselves #the fact that they are both actively frustrated by this and have both had big moments where they choose to Move On #where they try to have a normal life outside of the gang with a different more traditional family unit #like they both have the same frustrations and the same resigned acceptance and are the ones to say. we need to go back to normal. ouueouegh #ada speaks #i Could go ON

"It's so embarrassing to admit I only create art for validation" did paleolithic humans not paint for other humans to see. Does a child making their first drawing to show their parents makes it any less valuable. Do gardens arranged for the visitors' eyes make the roses any less beautiful. Do love poems written for one person alone to hear make your heart ache less. You're fine

#jay rambles.txt #two very hard pills to swallow: 1. art has always been created for money and it's a very normal practice in human history #and actually artists being expected to produce art for free or as cheap as they do now is a relatively new thing #2. humans have always created art for validation because being recognised and understood by your fellow humans is a universal human need #if you start to idealise artistry as something inherently selfless that needs to come with no gain or benefits or instead brings only pain #you are going down a VERY dangerous path of not being able to express yourself without shame - if at all #and potentially dragging other people you told close down into that mentality too if you're vocal about it #I've been there #I am there #It's a shitty feeling but the only way out of it is true embrace your need to be loved and desire for human connection or it won't end well #idk that's my opinion tho

something something one of those those "Jango falls for Courtesan/Stripper/NightclubSinger/TrophyWife!Obi-Wan" AUs...

But instead Obi-Wan actually being a sex worker, he's undercover and still a Jedi, and either:

They split ways and run into each other a few months later with Obi-Wan in full Prude Beige Knight mode OR

The situation goes pear-shaped while they're still flirting and Obi-Wan has to break cover to grab a senator and jump out a window and suddenly this half-dressed glittery Person is batting away shots with a lightsaber and there's a bratty twelve-year-old who ALSO has a lightsaber threatening people with I Will Eat Your Liver if they keep staring at his dad's ass just because the sequined sheathe dress tore in a sexy place

#jangobi #jango fett #obi wan kenobi #anakin skywalker #star wars #phoenix talks #undercover au #undercover as sex worker #to be clear: I do enjoy sex worker AUs both as a form of entertainment and in their surprising weight in normalization of sex work #they've done an unprecedented amount of work humanizing the profession #for sheltered young people who might have otherwise needed a lot longer to get over their prejudices #and while in my case I started on that path of Recognizing People As People through reading firsthand accounts by sex workers online #the impact that sex worker AUs have had on that whole situation is not to be dismissed #but also they're just fun to read? they're entertaining in the way any profession-based AU can be #I'm just as eager to read a sex work AU as I am to read a senator AU or racer au or college professor au etc #...anyway I just realized that the original post could theoretically be read as 'sex worker AUs bad' and I don't want anyone to think that
