#the stars that gazed back

[acourtofquestions]

A lovely girl gazing at the stars,

She looked up at the sky and whispered, take anything away from me, take it all if you want to; but please- please, let me keep this one thing

and the stars who gazed back.

Had to fix a couple of things... (I'm kind of stoopid)

But I've been binge watching tfp for the past few days and I'm still obsessed lol 🩷

First transformers series I've ever watched lol

A highly feverish Yuma and Makoto 🌡️ (39.05 c)

This was an art trade I received from BBQchap0 on twitter ✨

Small Rambling below

original and copy, same body, same mind, same frail immune system (they often get sick at the same time)

The 2 worlds greatest minds are going to have to take some time off working today. They’ve unfortunately both been afflicted by a sudden spiking fever and can hardly move. As they lay in bed, fatigued, aching, and sweating through their clothes, they could only struggle to try to help themselves.

This is such an attractive piece. I think I’m in love...

I could go on about this but, I'm literally about to combust 😳💦

In shorter words:

This is the most lovely art trade I have ever gotten and one of the most gorgeous pieces of art I've ever gotten in my entire life.

I cannot praise it enough, this belongs in a legit art gallery... I'm so honored to have gotten something this pretty I could cry...

💕💦(┬┬﹏┬┬) 💦💕

HOW did they make these disheveled sick boys look so BEAUTIFUL??? I can legit FEEL their struggle, its too good I could die

What a vision…makoto's uninterested yet tired expression...yuma with the thermometer in his mouth as his clone weakly assists him...and those glorious skin flush tints of red and pink coupled with the beads of sweat and messy hair…

AND THOSE COLORS…

Yeah. I’m not normal 🫠

Its…perfection

#TBH would love to see your opinion on akane getting the star eyes#other than just ‘she’s copying ai’ bc I think that’s a bit of a cop out#sure i think she highly empathizes with ai#but I think there’s more too it but idk how to put it in words

Thank you so much for bringing this up @verimin because this is another thing I see a lot and I just. don't. get it!

We see Akane acting as Ai twice in the manga. The first time she does it because she needs to put on a role, and the girls suggest she act as Aqua's ideal woman.

That's it, that's all there is to it. Akane was just playing a role.

The second time is, again, all about playing a role. She is auditioning to play Ai, so she obviously acts as Ai.

These are by no means the only instances where we have seen Akane with the star eyes though.

(Spoilers for the entire manga below the cut!)

Whenever she becomes one with the character she is playing, she gets the starry eyes.

This is also the case for these two instances:

In both cases here, Akane is channeling the emotions of a character that she has made her own. She is empathizing with Ai to the point that she feels her emotions, but it's only because she constructed Ai's profile and character so thoroughly in her mind.

So basically, it's once again about acting.

This one instance could be the only outlier, but it actually fits the same pattern.

Her experience during Love Now taught her that she needs to play a role in front of the camera to protect herself.

Before Love Now, Akane was always just herself in front of the camera and that almost killed her. Now, she knows better than to show her vulnerability.

So instead of showing how nervous she is, she acts collected.

And so, since she is still acting, she gets the star eyes.

It's not that Akane is imitating Ai, it's that what she went through during Love Now changed her. She didn't only learn to lie in front of the camera, she also gained the confidence to do the kind of acting that commands all the attention to herself.

So you could say that doing a psychological analysis of Ai made some of Ai's confidence and her ability to tell convincing lies rub-off on her, but that's about it.

Besides, while it may have contributed to bringing her out of her shell, the fact that Akane is able to pull it off so effortlessly shows she was born with it.

All in all, saying that Akane is copying Ai makes no sense because we can clearly see Akane do a 180° whenever she plays her lol

I imagine Celaena finally seeing the sun after a year in Endovier must’ve looked a lot like this…

…The utter joy to see the sky & marveling at the world. The wonder of it still managing to light up the eyes of someone who has seen the very worst of it. It’s no wonder both Chaol & Dorian fell in love with her … how could you not love that?

One day when I have a partner and we’re adults we’re going on a stargazing date this is beautiful

[xyumichux]

This trend lol

I've been feeling burnt out lately and feeling down but I'm slowly getting there :> 🩷

[journey-to-the-attic]

ok, so I love zhaolu with all my heart BUT I'm curious, did you ever consider making dialuci into a real thing in jtta? Like, I know that's not what you're going for, but did it ever cross your mind? 👀

i think the idea of doing so did, but i don't think i ever considered actually doing it - it just didn't really appeal to me at the time. fun fact, i went into the fic fully intending not to include any romance apart from wizlecto's established relationship (which as we all know has now fallen through)

generally i'm not the biggest fan of their romantic dynamic - i feel like if i were to push them in a more intimate direction, they'd be more of a qpr

[Image ID: ‘Oh No Balloon’ meme. The figure reaching for the yellow balloon in the first panel is labeled “me” and the balloon is labeled “platonic or familial sabezra as my main headcanon.” In the second panel, a pink blob has placed arms around the central figure’s torso. The blob is labeled “romantic sabezra hyperfixation from jr. high re-emerging.” A drop of sweat is falling from the central figure’s forehead. /. End ID]

I’ve always appreciated both so I’m not upset or anything but. That took less than a day y’all xD

I take the Werner Herzog approach to experiencing media. I think watching ‘low brow’ reality tv and bread and circus entertainment is just as vital as high art and books meant to be analyzed not just consumed. They’re not the same thing and they’re not supposed to be the same thing but variety is the spice of life etc they exercise your brain and make you think in different ways, it’s vital to add some silliness and camp to your palate
